H. Browne of the court squad believes it's the added at- traction that lures football crowds, and he intends to apply the same principles to the home basket- ball schedule. “We're going to make oasketball more attractive to the spectators, | t00,” he says. “We've planned activ- ities before the game and between halves to add to the interest and | make the evening.more entertaln-k ng.” One of the special features will | be. & 30-minute concert before each game by the R. O. T. C. bahd, and ‘between halves the fraternities and sororities will be given oppertunity “to advertise themselves and de- velop a collegiate atmosphere. Community singing led by the fraternal groups is one of Browne's schemes and to make it possible he is ‘arranging with opposing coach- ns ta extend the time between nalves from 10 to 15 minutes. e — na fear S unless by sleet storms last e gonverted into fuel or ndary | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, TUESDAY, JAN. 8 1935. lSTREET PAVING ASSTARTED IN CITY--ALMOST - Crew Rmm: to Tear Up Streel, But Rules Force Halt SMir its dom Lown streets had | tarted.
