The lounge of the memorial union will be opened at 5 o'clock and those holding banquet tickets will have an opportunity to see Nile Kinnick's trophies which will be on display. Following the dinner Dr. George Scanlon, chairman of the committee in charge of the party, will introduce Professor Leib, who will act as toastmaster of the program. A short talk will be given by Doctor Anderson followed by the presentation of the "most valuable player award" to Kinnick by Wilfrid Smith, Chicago Tribune sports writer. Kinnick also will speak. Laws and Glassgow, former University of Iowa football stars, will sit at the speaker's table and will be introduced. They both are former winners of this "most valuable player award." Jack Drees, former Iowa basketball star, now sports announcer for station WJJD, Chicago, also will be introduced. Tickets for Monday's banquet are still available at Racine's No. 1, Whetstone's No. 1, Gibbs' drug store, the Hotel Jefferson, and the office of the secretary of the chamber of commerce. The Altrusa club Friday reserved a table for members and the Rotary club of Cedar Rapids this morning purchased a group of tickets.
