fund to provide a suitable memorial
to the class as "a contsructive idea,
offering great possibilities for the bet-
terment of the University," the Stu-

MEMORIAL FUND THRIVES
With more than 100 policies
written, the committee in charge
of the 1926 literary class mem-
orial fund will start its house to
house canvass today. Senior
groups will be, met in each or-
ganized house on the campus
during the next week.
Owing to the lack of a com-
plete staff in the committee office
in Alumni Memorial hall yester-
day, many who came in to take
out their policies were turned
away. Representatives will be
in the same office today to sign
up all who will come in. Per-
sonal communication with each
senior will be established during
the week in order to put the fund
drive more than 100 per cent.
