During the course of the meet-j ing the question was brought up as to whether or not the Navy would officially participate in any additional fund raising drves. Captan Adell stated that the primary purpose of this affair, in- sofar as the Navy was concerned, was to combine all fund-raising drives into this one major effort which will be expended in mak- ing the Navy Charity Carnival a success. It is hoped by this method that a better result will be achieved than can be realized by individu- al fund-raising campaigns. At the same time, however, Captain Adell stated that this would not preclude voluntary contributions on the part of Naval personnel in any fund-raising campaigns which might be conducted in the audience with his celebrated } act that several years ago thrill- ed audiences in this country and in Europe. Special preparations are being made to make it possible for Bartholomew ‘to stage one of his favorite escape stunts.
