The old movie theatre is being re- modeled and will be used as an audito- rium for meetings, plays, and programs of various kinds.

The post of chaplain of the Univer- sity, vacated by the Rev. Moultrie Guerry, '21, who left Sewanee on Jan- uary 1 to become rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Norfolk, Va., is being filled by the Rev. John R. Dal- linger, professor of Old Testament in the Theological School. The temporary appointment was made by Dr. B. F. Finney, pending the election of a chap- lain by the Board of Trustees in June.

A farewell gift of one dozen sterling silver bread and butter plates and small butter knives was sent to the Rev. Moultrie Guerry shortly after he left Sewanee. The following message ac- companied the gift: "To our Chaplain, with the gratitude, loyalty, and affection of his friends among the students, fac- ulty, and residents of Sewanee, Decem- ber, 1937."

An" electric scoreboard for basket- ball games was presented to the Uni- versity by Blue Key, and was installed at the beginning of the basketball sea- son. In addition to indicating the score, the board has a large clock, the official timing device for the game, which tells the number of minutes and seconds left to play in each half. At the end of each half a horn automatically blows. The board also indicates which quarter of the game is being played. The clock is electrically controlled from the time- keeper's desk.
