groups.
A plywood replica of the chapel is
going to be placed in front of Aca
demic Building to denote the prog

he painted on the model of the build
ing. After the $5,000 goal is reached, I

bricks painted in gold. «
The chapel, which is to be erected
across from Snelling Hall, will cost
$35,000. The Danforth Foundation
has made the initial contribution for
its construction, and the balance is
to be raised by the campus drive and
outside subscriptions.

Student Opinion
The Council postponed action on
the matter last week to allow mem
bers to sample student opinion on
the change. Freshman class Presi
dent Paul Lynch reported that Reed
and Myers Hall residents strongly
favored the Rebel cap. Most other
members reported approval or indif
ference on the part of the people
they had Interviewed.
Change Sought
Agitation for a change in rat
caps began fall quarter when several
freshmen bought red and black Con
federate caps at a local men’s store
and decorated them with “G’s” and
their class numerals. At that time
Student Council endorsed the new
ap but took no formal action. As
nothing further was done to settle
the matter, several Council mem
hers became convinced that power
to make the change lay in their
group as student representatives, and
brought the question up for final dls
position.
The chuuge will go into effect fall
quarter.
