Dayton Tenn Aug 12 A nationwide fundamentalists convention planned for Knoxville in September aims to fund a junior school in Dayton in memory of William Jennings Bryan. The Dayton meeting backed a $25000 starter gift, 30,000 in bonds from Dayton, 100,000 from Rhea County, 50000 in local subscriptions, and 40000 from Mrs Bryan to build a denominational free school. The plan favors an undenominational junior college, avoiding conflict with existing schools and not holding a Knoxville convention while the Scopes case is before the Tennessee Supreme Court.
