Penny Wars raises over $900

by BILL DAY '03 - CONTRIBUTOR

  In a contest that defied all expectation, Burnett House emerged as the Penny Wars champion. After a deafening cacophony of debate regarding counting inaccuracies, a massive recount gave Burnett the victory. Profiting from $55.20 in penny contribution, Burnett netted a striking -$31.00.
   Quinby House also deserves kudos for earning the highest gross, an eye-catching $164.06. Bittersweet congratulations are in order for Baxter House, which, with $133.55 in silver and paper, garnered the most ill will of any of the houses.
  The Up 'til Dawn team would like to remind everyone that the true winners are the ailing children around the world who benefit from the important research conducted at St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. All told, Penny Wars and the delicious bakesale raked in $931.25. On behalf of the hospital, Up 'til Dawn extends its most sincere gratitude to the Bowdoin campus for this wonderful contribution.
