BANDSMEN SPONSOR TICKETS FOR PLAY

Half of Money Will Go to R. O. T. C. Band Fund for West Point Trip

As another move in the campaign to send the R. O. T. C. Band to West Point November 24, the Bandsmen are sponsoring ticket sales for the University Players’ production, “Two Girls Wanted.”
The play is being presented every night this week in the Temple theater.
Money Goes to Band
Ray Ramsey, business manager of the Players, has announced that one-half of all the money realized from ticket sales by members of the Band will be turned over to that organization.
Approximately $5,000 is needed to send the Cadet Band to the Army game. Less than a third of this amount was netted from the Band Ball, given in the Coliseum October 27, and about $3,500 more must be raised to meet the limit of the full quota.
Short Time Left
Tickets to “Two Girls Wanted” will be issued to all R. O. T. C. Band members today. It is hoped that an appreciable sum will be raised from ticket sales in order to help swell the West Point fund, for the Band has only a short time left in which to raise the money needed for the trip.
