LANDSCAPE DEPARTMENT IS
TOAE LARGE LABORATORY
Take Over Old Botanical Gardens Near
Boulevard; May Be Ready in
One Year
The old botanical gardens on the
new boulevard drive, which were
found inadequate for botanical experi-
nents, have been taken over by the
landscape department, and will be
transformed into a laboratory for ad-
vanced students in landscape design.
This will necessitate a great amount
of work, and Professor Tealdi, who is
supervising the the project, states that
it will be fully a year or more before
the laboratory will be completed and
ready for actual use.
The land purchased last spring on
Packard street will be used by th'e
botanists.
FALL PLANS MADE
BY LYCEUM CLUB

INSTRUCTOR MAY BE CALLED BELIEVE PROF. TALAMON 1S
TO SERVE AS DUTCH PRIVATE

Harry Rottschaefer, instructor in
political economy, who is taking work
in the law department during the sum-
mer, is worried over the prospects of
being catted to serve in the Dutch ar-
my in case that country should become
seriously involved in the present Eu-
ropean struggles.
According to statements recently
published regarding requirements for
military service, those born in Holland
and residing in this country may be
mustered in time of exigency.
Mr. Rottschaeffer left Holland when
six years old, and hopes that he has
been forgotten, but still believes there
is a possibility of his being called to
defend the land of his birth.
