This coronation climaxed the popularity contest sponsored by the Regis-

Summer of 1934. Much interest and

information regarding the candidates
for Miss A. & T. of the Summer Sehool.
Each of them seemed very enthusiastic
over the contest and worked hard in
order that they might win. The contest was a great success and much interest was manifested in it up to the
finish. Each candidate made a statement in wb'.cli she gave her view about
the contest. Here is the news:

for on May 17, 1935, she was crowned
"Miss Hollywood" by the Hollywood

William Gordon was her campaign
manager. She says: "I am glad that
I can help the members of the Register

$5,000 RECEIVED FOR
SCIENCE LABORATORIES
—>
All students and others will be
interested and happy to learn that
recently A. & T. was the recipient
of some five thousand dollars to be
used exclusively in improving and
enlarging science laboratories and
facilities. •
Already the work of converting
the agricultural auditorium into a
chemistry laboratory for freshmen
is well- underway. .This will! be
equipped with twenty-one - work
desks of the latest designs, and
■Dip- •.
rWo hundred and forty iivU-T'idual
lockers, making it possible to accommodate that number of students, without doubling, and, liixrer
inost'fav'orable conditions.
The present chemistry laboratories wil uc l__gro,;Gfl arid used
exclusively for advanced courses
and research. With these changes
the entire top floor of Noble Hall
will be devoted to chemistry.
Other science laboratories will
be strengthened and expanded; the
gym, too, will be fitted partially
from these funds, and partially
from others. It will be reads' for
class work in the fall.
These improvements and additions will make it possible "to put
in operation next fall a large
measure of the reorganized program that has been under consideration for the last.few years'. .
