ANN ARBOR GIVES MOST
Announcing a total of $129,000 se-
cured in cash gifts and pledges since
March 1 when she took charge of the
campaign, Mrs. W. D. Henderson, ex-
ecutive secretary of the Alumnae
council, gave her report at the annual
Alumnae council meeting, yesterday
morning.
On March 1 of this year the fund
equalled one-half million with $313,000
paid in. This leaves approximately
$371,000 to complete the million dollar
anount which must be pledged by
.June, 1927.
Among the city groups, Ann Arbor
has subscribed the most with total
pledge of $20,000. Chicago, Detroit
and Grand Rapids follow, each prom-
ising $10,000. A stun of $5,000 has been
subscribed, each by Toledo, Kalama-
zoo and Lansing. The undergraduates
of 1925-26 have pledged $25,000.
Among the personal pledges, Mrs.
L. W. Oliphant, who formerly prom-
ised $300, increased her gift by $1,200
making a total of $1,500, Mrs. Ossip
Gabrilowitsch pledged $1,000 and Mrs.
0. E. Hunt pledged $500.
The plan to raise the last half mil-
lion is, first, to raise three million by
group pledges and, second, to raise
the remaining two million by special
gifts. Since May 1 the group pledges
came in at the rate of $1,000 a day,
and yesterday morning, $3,000 was
pledged.
Allen B. Pond, '30A, and Irving K.
Pond, '79E, designers of the Union,
