The Grand Stand for Holmes.

A meeting was held last night in Holden Chapel, to decide what course should be taken about the erection of a suitable grand stand on Holmes Field. Mr. C. H. Atkinson was elected chairman, and H. A. Taylor secretary of the meeting. The following committee was elected: Fessenden, '86; Russell, '87; and Herron, '87. The committee was authorized to collect subscriptions, and to appoint two assistants from each class to aid in canvassing the college. After considerable discussion as to the expense and size of a grand stand, the committee was directed to examine other plans, in addition to the one by which the cost of the grand stand would be $14,000 and to make a report to the college as to which plan seemed to promise the most suitable building at a moderate expense. Only twenty-seven men attended the meeting,-a very bad showing, when we reflect of what great interest to the college as a whole the matter of erecting a grand stand is.
