A T LAW
B. M. BLODG ETT
Tlie nn impanying cut illustrates the massive size of the proposed building to be on the O. A. C. campus
to conn in . c th*> active part Ore III heroes played in the Spanish-American ami W orld wars. The buildinK
will tower ISO feet hieh and will he ¿00 by 200 feet. Th-’ building materials used will he such as to blend with
the prt cut campus architecture and vet he dist'active. The building will h* use all student nd alumni activities and
organizaiions. More than half of the total $500,000 nee led for construction is now taised.
The O. A. C. Memorial union cam­
paign to provide $500,000 needed to
construct a building which will be a
permanent memorial to the college
and t.ite heroes of the Spanish-
American and W orld wars and io
house all student and alumni activi­
ties on the O. \. C. campus, has been
completed among students and is
inovin.r into different districts of the
state where alumni and friends of the
college are located.
More than half of the sum needed
was rai 1 on the campus in an in­
tensive drive of a week. Inspired by
tbe record of O. A. C. and Oregon
heroes in the war, the undergraduates
and faculty of the college pledged
more than half of the total in three
days. President W. J. Kerr, who was
seriously ill at the time, sent in his
pledge of $1000 on the second day of
the drive. Alumni in Portland have
responded with more than $25,000 and
the cam] ai 'Tl is now reaching into th
smaller cities and communities of the
state.
The great Memorial union project
will seek to draw together the four
component parts of the college: stu­
dents, alumni, faculty and friends. It
will be a great gathering place for
college interests, a magnet to attract
students and alumni in all walks of
life and a melting pot to create a col­
lege democracy, say those in charge.
Loyalty of individual students and
alumni, who mortgaged their future
earning power to help pay bark to
their alma m ater part of the training
received, gave an impetus to the cam­
paign that makes the total objective
assured, according to campaign lead-
trs. One freshman student from Cali­
fornia pledged $1000 to the cause and
many contributions of $250 and more
were received.
More than $325 000 of the total is
now subscribed and construction on
the building will begin in the late sum ­
mer of 1925 and wiM he completed by
the fall term of 192b. according to
present plans. Alumni are organized,
not only in Oregon hut in W ashing­
ton, California. Hawaii, and many
eastern states where former students
are located.
1'hc building will have rooms for
tudent activities, faculty meetings,
assembly halls for larv gatherings,
trophy rooms where athletic a w ant'
of the Varsity "O” association may
he permanently kept, shop rn is for
die building of campus dramatic pro­
ductions and many other types of
rooms. All the student publication«
will he housed in the new building
which will he a big advancement of
the old inadequate system of publica­
tion offices scattered over the entire
campusf.
"The Memorial union building will
release much needed class room in the
buildings provided by the state,” said
E. B. Lemon, registrar ‘‘College life
is highly organized and many ©f the
Indent groups require accommoda­
tions which are needed for instruc­
tional purposes. The Memorial union
building is being built without c#st to
the state, which is an important fea­
ture in Oregon’s educational pro­
gram.”
O f much interest to students and
faculty is the plan for the theater in
the building, says the governing com­
mittee. One thousand persons will be
