FRANCE ASKS BIG NAVY
 FOR CORslCA's DEFENSE

WASHINGTON, March 1. - When France recently informed the Arms Conference that her navy was neces' sary to defend her possessions in the three seas, one of the reasons ad, vanced was a remote little island in tho Mediterranean known as Cor sica.
 Perhaps a touch of sentiment en' tered into the mentioning of this quaint, far-away island as cause for an extensive French navy. The great military genius and French idol, Ma poleon Bonaparte. first saw the light 'of day on this island, and Corsica proudly claims to be the birthplace of Christopher Columbus.

service to the community Obviously the acquisition of these acres implies great material development for the university in the near future. The time has come for action"
 Addition of the Prick Acres gives the University of Pittsburg one of the largest campuses in the world. The present campus contains forty. three acres, the university recently bought an adjoining tract of eleven acres and now adds the fourteen Prick acres, or a total of sixty-eight acres.
 Richard B. Mellon runs the great Mellon National Bank in Pittsburg, while his brother, Andrew w. Mellon, runs the United States Treasury. Judge Thomas Mellon, father of the two present Mellon boys, graduated from "WUP" in the class of 1887.

. the struggling and struggling little Western University of Pennsylvania now the great University of Pitts. , burg-enrolled as students Andy w. Mellon, now Secretary of the Unit ed States Treasury and one of Ameri- ca's foremost bankers, and his broth. CT, R. B. Mellon, the little school "up on Perrysville hill" did the biggest thing in its history in some ways. At any rate "WUP," as it was famil- iarly known for threequarters of a century or more, enlisted in it's future behalf t' ; boys who in later years were to .scome its most powerful fi- nancial friends.
 "The Melons" are magic words in this part of the country. When you hear someone say "the Melons" you know two things-the first is that the speaker is referring to A. W. and R.. B. Mellon; in the second instance you know that "the Melons" are synony- nous with millions. not mere dollars and cents.
 About a dozen years or so ago the Mellons" principally and other influ- ential alumni incidentally, thought old "WUP" ought to be jazzed up whole lot. The venerable academic buildings were up on Perrysville Hill. the vari- ous other schools--such as law, medi- cine, dentistry, etc. - were scattered all over the city. The plan was con- ceived to move the whole university to new site and start with brand new buildings.
 A big fund was raised, an extensive site bought in Pittsburg's great civic center in the Oakland section, and presto! Up went dozen large and magnificent buildings to house the various schools of the university. Then "WUP" left Perrysville and moved to Oakland. It also left it's old nance behind and became knon as the University of Pittsburg - Pitt" for short. It's enrolment quickly jumped from it's 600 or 700 students to its present 6,500.
 New buildings kept going up to meet it's growing needs.
 Several years ago the Melons built the Mellon Institute of Scientific Re- search. This school delved into scien- tific mysteries along new lines. It be- came world famous It was this school which recently discovered that smoke is far more valuable than the coal 1t comes from.

MELLON FAMILY BENEFACT0RS
 OF PlTTSBURC UNIVERSITY

Recently leading newspaper men of Pittsburg attended a dinner and after the dinner came the announcement that the Melons" had secured the famous Bricks Fourteen Acres right in the heart of the citys great civil center and near the university Those acres cost $1,5OO,000 They had been held for twenty years by the late Prick for $2,500,O00 The university now has those historic Fourteen Acres" thanks to the Melons.
 Announcement was made that be- fore spring work will begin on the erection of a number of immense buildings for the university and these buildings will be devoted to scientific schools. Great and startling scientific discoveries have been made by the Mellon Institute, and this led A. w. Mellon, particularly, to back the new chancellor, John G. Bowman, to the limit on his plans for further devel- opment of scientific research
 Chancellor Bowman said that when the new buildings are built and equipped the University of Pittsburg will have @ new plant complete in every detail costing approximately $50,O0O,O00. He also announced that within a very short time there would be at least 10000 students at Pitt It is intended to make Pitt the worlds greatest scientific school.
 It's scientific researches are not on the theoretical order, but of the most practical nature, intended to benefit industries of all kinds in big way.
 It was "WUP" that turned out such geniuses as Langley, the inventor of the flying machine, and John G. Brashear, world-famous astronomer.
 Chancellor Bowman, speaking of the gift and the intended use of the site, said:
 "Mr R. B. Mellon and Secretary A. w. Mellon are interested in the uni versity because it makes for greater, happier and more prosperous Pitts burg district The conviction of these two men that Pittsburg must have a university second to none in the world in its power to turn out men and wom- en with right training and the right character Is the reason why the "Frick Acres" came to the university. Their decision, further, Is based upon confidence that the men and women Of Pittsburg, in accordance with their ability, will help create here a univer' sity which will be distinguished in it's

Chicago took the lead from New
