Sources For Four Ten Day
Periods
A donation of more than 160 acres
of land to be used for the exclusive
purpose of a summier and winter
Fresh Air camp for both boys and
girls was announced recently by the
camp committee of the Students
Christian association. The donation,
according to the statement, comes as
the culmination of, a three year's ef-
fort to find a permanent home for the
institution.
The land is the gift of two well-
known Ann Arbor men, both of whom
wish to remain unknown. It is situ-
ated approximately 25 miles north-
east of this city, in the Pleasant Lake
section, and is separated from the
main highway by a narrow unimprov-
ed road through [lhe woods.' Practic-
-lly all of the land is covered with
virgin forest, and while no deed has
as yetben made. it was stated that
provision would be included for uae
preservation of the present remark- 1
able condition of the timber.
Reimann Named Director
Lewis C. Reimann, '16, has been
named director of the camp for next
summer. Mr. Reimann has been do-
nating his services to the summer
camps for the past three years, and#

institution has been due solely to his
