NEW WOMEN'S BUILDING
 AT UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA

TUCSON, Dec. 19.-In the office of J. B. Lyman, Jr., consulting architect for the commission of state institu- tions, the plans are being rapidly de veloped for the new $100,00O wom- ems building, which is to be erected shortly on the campus of the Univer- sity of Arizona, and which will relieve the istuation as to the housing of the women students enormously.
 This building, which was given the university by the last legislature, will give dormitory space, girls gymna- sium and complete quarters for the department of domestic science which has been so rapidly developed during the last few years under the direction of Miss De Rosette Thomas and Mrs. R. H. Williams.
 This, with the S2O0,OOO mining building, the $6O,OOO observatory and the hospital building, makes a very formidable building program that is being outlined for the university, but the rapid growth of the institution is keeping even ahead of the building program.
