Tolal Expected To Reach $600 In Final Tally
With five organizations unreported as yet. Trojan Community Chest contributions were still $242 short of the $750 goal as the annual drive closed last Friday.* Reports from Lloyd Fry. chairman of the campus Community Chest campaign, indicated that $508.01 had been collected by Friday night.

Braun-schweiger, chairman of the campaign executive committee for the Los Angeles campaign, was witnessed by a packed auditorium and lack of space forced the Squires to turn aWay many of the students. COMMITTEE PRAISED In announcing the close of the campaign. Fry gave praise to the members of the general committee and the tag salesmen who assisted him in the campaign. General committeemen were: Jim Lytle, publicity; Larry Slinn and Frank Johns. Aeneas hall; Jo Cannon, sororities; Bob Crawford, fraternities; and Herman Rudin, Lancers.
