IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE IN GYM Whole Building to be Renovated and New Baths Installed. Improvements will soon begin to be made in the University gymnasium. Work will proba bly be started before commence ment. The gymnasium will be much more sanitary and up to date for next year than at pres ent. New and sanitary walls will be added to the showers and all the baths will be worked over so that they will give no trouble. It is also expected that the entire ground floor will be made of concrete which will be much more satisfactory than the old wooden one. More and better apparatus is to be installed on the main floor of the building, and there will be better facilities for dances and other entertainments than there are at present. The authorities hope to install a kitchenette that w ill be a great convenience in the preparation of refreshments T. J.

The meeting was called to order by Miss Williams, presi dent of the State Audubon society. A short constitution, similar to that of the Audubon society was adopted. The ob ject of the club as expressed in the constitution is for the study and protection of our American birds. Then the election of per manent officers took place. Dr. A. C.
