JAGGARD FOR EXPANSION
st. Paul Judge Speaks Strongly in Favo
of Scheme. :.r>~: r +

Justice E: A. Jaggard of the supreme
court, who is one Of the law faculty at
the university, is enthusiastic over the
plan for enlargement Of the campus.
He said today: .%..t
cit is great opportunity, and one
that Minneapolis cannot afford to let
pass. The university is of enormous
value to the city; and anything that
helps it's expansion should be supported
by the business interests of the city.
90 The institution is cramped for room
now. Statistics from the high schools,
figuring aaccordingaato their past con-
tributions of students, show that in a
short time; e., Ilpaiversity viii double
its enrolment, If room is provided:,ns
"None should be- turned away from a
great state institution for such cause
as lack Of room. Ground room is need
ed. Unless something is done our uni
| versity buildings will be scattered, '.dis,
| .iecta membra,' like those at Harvard
and Yale, instead of following the COM
prehensive plan of Oxford, Of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, Chicago or
Leland Stanford.
"The alumni are making an effort
and the proposition: ought to stir
alumni and business men alike. There
will never be such an opportunity
again to expand the university grounds
in accord with future needs.'

PLEDGE $500
FOR BIG CAMPUS
DULUTH ALUMNI BACK UP H. 3
7 i HoVLAND'S SUGGESTION.
Action Is Forerunner of Campaign to
: Be Conducted Thruout State for.
Purchase of Land Between Univer-
sity Avenue and Railroad Tracks,
from Fourteenth to Eighteenth Ave.

Duluth alumni: of the University Of
Minnesota Nj have definitely pledged
$4,000 for the purpose of enlarging
the campus and preventing the erection:
of the new main building on the site
chosen by the regents. This announce
ment has been made by Henry B. How
land OF Duluth, an alumnus, who is op-
posed to the erection Of the new main
building on the drill ground and who
has enlisted many prominent alumni in
a movement looking to greater cam
pus. 2ssE3 s'--f
The action. of the Duluth alumni is
the forerunner Of "a campaign to be
actively conducted thruout the state,
and, judging from the enthusiasm with
which the project has been received in
Duluth, sufficient funds will be raised
to secure the tract lying between Uni
versity avenue and the railroad tracks,
extending from Fourteenth to Eight
eenth avenues SE.r< &ss:. 45@s E
The condemnation and purchase OF
the proposed property would, in the
opinion of Regent j. T. y lyman, occu-
py four years, but the alumni propose
to- raise enough money to insure the
purchase on condition that the new
main building be built on the site Of
the present old engineering building.
This location was considered by the
regents, out OWING 70 lack OF campus
space it was thought best to build the
building on the drillground along Uni
versity avenue. The alumni argue that,
with greater campus provided for,
the regents could tear down the old
engineering building and erect the new,
main on it's site. 4. :
No" direct proposition will be submit
ted to the regents until a sufficient sum
has been pledged, to insure the success
Of the plan, but 1T is generally under
stood that the regents look with favor
on the alumni plans.
Work on the foundation for the new
main is progressing as usual and as the
contract for the foundation has been
let, the alumni will make no effort to
stop the work. It is argued that the
foundation contract only calls for an
expenditure OF. $500 and the laying
of the foundation would interfere in
no way with the plan of changing the
location of the new Main.
