CANNOT DELAY
ARMEMORIAI.
Campaign Begins March 28 to
Raise $500,000 Among
Students.

That the building OF 4 war memorial
for the University is a NEED which can
not be delayed longer is the opinion of
the war memorial fund committee, which
will have charge Of raising $5OO,00O
among University students. The cam
paign begins March %, and extensive
plans are being made fer raising the en-
tire sum.
Other universities have already made
ilicir drives for funds and in many eases
have begun building. The mistake of
waiting for a later date must not be made
Us the present is the most oppOrtune time
from an economic standpoint that will
occur for some time to come, accordingly
TO the committee.
The memorial will be a building erect
ed at the Lowry street entrance to the
Eas, Campus. 1t will not only be a
commemcraiion Of the services Of the
students of the University in the World
War but a practical ful6llment of needs
which cannot be met in any other way.
There will be meeting rooms, Offices for
student activities and other things which
at present are running under makeshift
accommodations.
The effect of memorial is well ex-
empiiied at the University Of Michigan.
The Michigan Union Memorial was com
pleted at 4 cost of Sl.25O,OO0. Concern
ing its place in university life, the Mich
igan Alumnus says. "Nowsthal the new
union is an accomplished fact, We wonder
how the University maintained itself with
out it for so long time. 1t has already
become an essential part Of life at Ann
Arbor."
Among 2CO0 students 100000 was
raised at Purdue University in Indiana.
One half the total was pledged in a
single day. The student average was
Sl55. The average for the alumni was
$40.
Nhat other universities can do. Mis-
souri can surpass," says Fred Eldean.
