THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY
Meeting Called Of the Building Committee
to Form General Plan.
Architecture of the BAildings and
Their Location. tD BE De-
termined Then.

The building committee of the American
University has been called to meet in this
city Tuesday, December 3. meeting of the
committee was called some days ago, to be
held next Wednesday, but owing to the fact
that this was the day before Thanksgiving
the meeting was postponed.
The COmp0sitiOn of the Committee.
This committee appointed to decide upon
the architecture of the first and second OF
the buildings to be erected On the university
grounds and form a general plan for the To-
cation of all the buildings consists of the
following: Bishop Hurst, DR.. s. L. Beiler,
vice chancellor; NJ. G. Emery. A. b. Duvali,
John E. Herrell of this city, and John E.
Andrews, Anderson Fowler and DR.. A. ].
Palmer of New York. The committee
hopes to decide upon a general plan for the
as this Is a very important matter it is
feared that even at the coming meeting
complications may arise that will prevent
a conclusion being reached. 1t is expected
that about a score of buildings will be
erected on the university grounds, and
when the first building is located it will be
necessary to have located in general
way every structure that is to be erect
ed. Not only is this the case, but
when the architecture of the first building
is approved, it will mean the approval of
the architecture in general way of every
building to be placed on the grounds in
coming years.
Two Plans for Location.
There ara two plans for the location of
the buildings. One is to scatter them over
the grounds, giving broad lawns between
each of them. The other Is to group them
in such a way that communication between
the buildings will be very simple matter.
The plan for grouping the buildings will re-
suit in causing them to make more i'm
posing appearance than would be the case
if they We're scattered. Both plans have
much in their favor, and until the coming
meeting it cannot be definitely stated which
will be adopted. The delay in adopting a
general plan for the loca ton of buildings is
causing delay in the construction of the
first building, which will be the hall of his
tory. This structure will cost sl50,un, of
which amount 10000 in cash is now in the
hands Of the building committee. One pay
ment to this fund is now overdue and has
not been made simply because the money
has not. been needss. Cash on hand is
abundant to begin the building.
The meeting of the building committee
December 3 will be held either at the Ar
lngton Hotel or in the office of the univer-
sity l. the Lehman building.
