Dr. Custls Lee Hall, who has gratul- fously attended all crippled children belng cared for by the Kiwanis Club, was the reciplent of the organization's appreciation at the meeting in the Ho- tel Washington yesterday. After publicly thanking the physiclan, Claude W. Owen, outgoing president, surprised Dr. Hall by announcing that when he returned home he would more than likely find a complete radio set in- stalled at his house. Mr. Owen enumerated the number of cases attended and the remarkable re- sults attalned by Dr. Hall since he jolned Kiwanis and volunteered the work, and at the conclusion of his talk rty cheer was given. & Blection ‘of offcers will b held next Thursday. As the entire roster, with the exception of several directors, is without opposition the action will be nothing more than a formal installation of Harry G. Kimball, president; Maj. General Anton Stephan, first vice presi- dent; John Wineman, second vice pres- ident, and Franc. Sheiry, District trustee. Four directors from six nominees will be decided at the meeting. PORTO RICO’S HARDING FUND TO REACH $10,000 Towner and Deltoro Cable Coolidge Entire Population Is Rep- resented. By the Aswociated Press. SAN JUAN, P. R, December 21.— Reporting on the observance of Harding memorial week in Porto Rico, Gov. Towner and Chief Justice Deltoro cabled President Coolidge that the total subscriptions to the memorial fund would probably reach $10,000. This, the message said, “repre- gents the pennles of 200,000 children, the offerings of churches, lodges, school teachers, laborers, government em- ployes and citizens generally and, with the public demonstrations, rep- resents the tribute that Porto Rico rendars to the memory of the Chief Magistrate of the nation, who died in active service.” PLANS FOR BIG DANCE| AS Y. W. C. A. DIRECTOR Only Members of Association Will Be Invited, Col. Herron Asserts. Plans for the supper dance of the District of Columbia department of ! the Reserve Officers’ Assoc'ation were told to reserve officers of the 313th Field Artillery last night by | Col. Leroy Herron, regimental com- | mander and president of the chapter. He stated that it is planned to hold the dance early In February. Only officers who are members of the assoclation will be invited. Other of- ficers may attend as guests of mem- bers. In his remarks Col. Herron sald that officers who did not display any { interest In the Organized Reserve were not worthy of their commissions and that when the time came for this class of officers to apply for pro- motlon he would not recommend | them. | Following the remarks of Col. Her- | ron, the meeting was turned over to Maj. Fred A. Carter. commanding tho 2d ‘Battalion, who held a conforence on “battery commander and battalion detalls, including duties of each mem- ber thereof.” It was announced that the next meeting of the rexlmelfl.l to be held on January 17, would be conducted by Lieut.
