II. II. KinyOn Would Admit Non-trad.
uates TO Alumni Association

The main topic to be discussed at
the annual meeting of the University
of Missouri Alumni Association in June
will be the admission to the organiZa-
ton of former students who did not
graduate from the University.
Statistics from the registrars Of
flee show that there are 5000 gradu-
ates of the University and that more
than 10000 were forced to drop out
without receiving degrees.
81 have talked with many of these
former students and have been i'm
pressed by their desire to become ac-
tive members of the association" said
II. II. Kinyon, secretary of the alumni
association. Since so many have ex-
pressed their desire to aid in the
work of the association, they should
be admitted TO active membership.
intend TO make this one of the main
issue in the coming alumni reunion.
Two out Of every three students drop
out before graduation, yet no attempt
has been made to keep in communica-
ton with them"
Mr. Kinyon has taken the first step
in the new movement by placing a
large sign on the door of the Alumni
Room welcoming both graduates and
former students.
