HALL ALUMNI PLAN
DIG BARBECUE
The New York group of the Gener¬
al Alumni Association of Nazareth
Hall, la co-operation with other
groups, have arranged to hold a
unique and novel affair in conjunc¬
tion with the annual Commencement
festivities.
A barbecue will be held at Bushkill
Park on Tuesday evening, June 12, at
G.30 o'clock.
Tha success of this affair has been
assured by the securing of the servi¬
ces of a famous Southern barbecue
chef, who has been secured through
the kindness of the Cauchois broth¬
ers, who conducts Kein's English
Chop House In New York.
The committee on arrangements
must hear ln advance from those who
will attend, in order to make the ne¬
cessary arrangements. Therefore, It
is essential that all old Hall boys
signify their intention to participate.
While the barbecue will be primar¬
ily for members of the Alumni Asso¬
ciation, all old Hall boys and their
friends will be welcome.

the early part of the sleep four hunt¬
