PROGRAM IS IMPROVED
Pool Rooms, Bowling Allee, Roof Garden, Sofa Fountain and Larger Organization Rooms Are Planned for Future
As it was felt that many of the students who were taking advantage of the free time were having no choice in their activities, and its activities, the Union operating committee decided this summer upon the installation of the new plan which
A study of past contributions shows that up until September, 1928, 10% of the student pay was deceived in the study project on the cam pad have been $70 for each student an individual had received and decreased since that time through the student program has been increased. Another study showed that interested Last year the student participation in the building program decreased.
Divided fees for the Memorial Union building will be started with the enrollment of students this week, with a new fee of $120 per student. The new Union membership card will be ordered onto the campus at the same time as the method of payment is set up to transfer to the midweek free dues, tournaments, pong games, the use of the private dining rooms, and other benefits not charged for at the university.
Lack of Proper View
we have seen. Indications were that a part of the difficulty was because there was a lack of a proper view of the Union by the students, as viewed by the committee members, over the years of the Union. Students here last year expressed the feeling that the building was an uncomfortable project and though they would use it for part of their activities they would not take part in its building program in early 2014.
Student contributors brought out the point, that many of those who did not want to dance or dance and other parts of the program were not paying anything towards the cost.

If he denies an exemption from the $1.50 building share he will get his student fee. If he denies an administration building as before.

The membership card entitles the bserver to enter the free mid-west chances, take part in breaks or meetings with the play parquet equipment, and have the use of the private dining rooms, well as the recreation room. It will also be necessary for the person securing use of the committee rooms for the group to have a telephone.
Gift Gets Appointment
Fred Elleworth, a member of the committees, pointed out that the union membership cards from Michigan University were helpful in carbuncle infections and for identification in incidences not only in Amherst but also in Detroit 30 miles away. He felt that they would also come to have the same value here.
Dr. E. B. Gift, A.B. 97, M.A. 15, who will receive his Ph.D. degree from the University this September has been appointed head of the College of Agricultural Capital at Fayette, Mo. Since receiving his bachelor's degree, Doctor Gift has been director of normal training, as well as superintendent and superintendent of schools of Manhattan.
Greetings to all new students and a most cordial welcome to all! Once more we are embarking on a new year, abounding with opportunities for growth and development and growth—the very best one of your college career. To secure the most profit from your University work, see that your schedule includes classes in the sciences and mathematics apart from regular classroom assignments, for the cultivation of friendships outside of the small group in which you live, for daily relaxation and exercise. May the University bring to you the wonderful plans and aspirations.
Sincerely.
