THEY CAnTREAM
Hanover. N. H. (U.R) When
4.000.000 board feet of lumber
was harvested from the Dart
mouth college land grant, un
dergraduates hopefully noted
that the yield would provide
enough planks to build a 110
mile boardwalk to Smith, a girls'
college at Northampton, Mass.
Unromantic college officials or
dered the lumber sold to furni
ture dealers to finance Dart
mouth scholarships, however.
