P.B.H. FINISHES CLOTHING DRIVE THIS AFTERNOON

All Heterogeneous Articles, Wearing Apparel are Welcome--Many Unique Antiques Contributed

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Rivalling Max Keezer in the range of its wares, the annual old clothing drive of the Phillips Brooks House will come to a conclusion with final collections this afternoon and tomorrow morning. A peculiar emphasis in the past has flooded the Brooks House with white ties, white vests, and discarded swallow tail coats.

Telephone books, magazines, neck ties, whisk brooms, Victoria records are not unusual contributions to the heterogeneous collection of odds and ends that inevitably finds its way to the P. B. H. van. Uncle Eph and the H. A. A. are forced from competition by the wide appeal and intensity of the annual roundup. Antiques, and unique articles of wearing apparel fascinate those spectators who annually follow with interest the progress of the collection.

Collectors in each entry of the respective dormitories will conclude the local collections today while the P. B. H. truck will go the rounds with special trips this afternoon.

Clothes which are collected in this drive will be at the disposal of the various boys' clubs with which the Phillips Brooks House is connected, and will be given also to needy students in the University.
