The Legion feels that at the present time the need for the veterans me morial building on which they are planning, Is more urgent than ever. The structure Is to be a two ttory, concrete fire-proof build ing consisting of a basement, which will be used as a meeting place for veterans and veteran organizations, and as a recrea tion room, and an upper floor which will be used as an audi torium. The basement will in clude a large meeting room with lockers, a clubroom and kitchen with a stairway leading to the auditorium which can be used for serving large banquets. Lo cated in the basement will also be the heating plant and lava tories. An entrance room will be located in the center of the west ,i(Th auditorium, which will have 6000 feet of floor space, will be adequate to hold con ventions of state calibre, and may also be used by any civic, county or other organizations needing a large spate i meetings of various kinds. The north end of the auditorium will be equipped with a stage and dressing rooms, and the south end with a ladies lounge and rest room. It is planned to in stall a basketball and handball court for the use of the younger groups who might wish to in dulge in those sports. To make this room more fit ting as a living memorial to those men and women from Lake county who served in the armed forces during both World wars, it will be adorned with a tablet or plaque bearing the names of all those who served, and another with names of those who lost their lives while in the service of their country. It is planned to install three double doors on the east side of the building In order that large crowds may be discharged quickly. These doors will open on to a landscaped terrace facing the hill. Leading to the street level will be wide, easy stairs in order to avoid any con gestion. . Rev. Phillips Addresses Rotary Rev.

The pro ceeds will go to the Shrine Hospi tal for Crippled Children in Port land. Mr. Boughton's accompanist was his charming wife, Saga Col lin, who is an artist in her own right Those who know the tech nique of music agreed that she was one of the finest accompan ists to appear here on the concert stage. The Drocram was opened wun Beethoven's Sonata in G. fol lowed bv the lovely Mendelssohn composition, Concerto in . minor. Both presentations showed the results of long years of strenuous training and dili gent application to the study of violin. The second half of the program was in a lighter vein and probably the best received was the theme and processional from Prokofieff-Grunes' "Peter and the Wolf which has become a favorite not only of children but the grown-ups-as well. Pro fessor and Mrs. Boughton left early this morning to return to Eugene. While here they were guests of Dr. and Mrs. George H.
