At the nonn day luncheon at the Gary Commercial club rooms today complete fig ures will be tiven cut. According to Mrs. Kalph Rosa, chairinan of the drive this morning, some one has started the propaganda that the Y. YV. C . A. will not be open to -very denominational faith in Gary and through the press the asks that it made known that this is absolutely untrue. ""We want every women in the city of Gary to become members of th'i 1 A. and to enjoy its wonderful privileges, no matter what denomination or faith they may be There is to be nothing exclusive about the Y. " C. A. a? i? is to be erected for th women of the city." It is because of this propaganda thr.t s-me of the workers are meeting wi;h opposition in securing contributions and it is the hope of the committees t obliverate this untrue sentiment, find out what th- Y. W. c. A. stands for before yoU permit anyone to prea-'h i this propaganda. Yesterday and this morning o.ntrl- ' buttons were comitlg ,n thi.k'and fast1 and by noon it is possible that YC f i "f the total will be sh,,r,h
