Student Leaders Favor Completion of Union Building
Committee Is Authorized to Recommend Plans of Campaign for Funds
Assembled in the unfinished second floor of Union Memorial building, a group of representative students from the University of Minnesota and the two governing bodies, the Men's Student Council and the Women's Self Governing Association, discussed the future of the Union proclamation office at the University Corporation, yesterday afternoon.
The general consensus of opinion was strongly in favor of completing the second floor of the Union as soon as possible, despite the problem, no dissenting opinion was expressed. Two means of raising the money to complete the unit were the campaign contributions obtained in a campaign drive. The other suggested means was the lying of a small tax bill on the property as we would be in fee. This would be similar to a blanket tax and might be included in the fee paid at the time of enrollment.
Committee Is Formed
The tangible result of the meeting was the authorization of a committee to be composed of a member from the Moe's Student Council, the W. S. School Committee, and the committee. This committee is to meet soon and to make definite recommendations regarding a plan for a campaign by whatever method they choose.
Students who attended the meeting were allowed the opportunity to notice the contrast of a concrete floor with univerting grimy concrete and steel work of the second floor. They entered through the floor through a comfortably furnished lounging and reading room. Then up to hard-pine camp chair place, students were given concrete floor with suspended lighting fixtures the only break in the monotony of red window, blue brick, windows. This contrast itself was sufficient "milieu," perhaps, for the students to express a desire to join the Union Memorial.
Lindley Outlines History
Chancellor E. H., Lindley briefly outlined the history of the memorial plan. The idea was put into action in 1910, and by 1928 the memorial had been completed, and the subscriptions were beginning to come in to the trustees. Since the blocholders in old McCook field were resting, and had to be required to leave the area, they placed on the campaign to raise funds for the stadium. The last of that arena was completed last year. The second unit of the memorial was placed in the memorial plan in 1926 when the corner stone of Union Memorial Building was laid. Completion of the basement including the new cafeteria and the first walkway was celebrated with a Cemetery day ceremony.
No Chance to Contribute
Adopting the "pay as you build" slogan the Memorial Corporation has built the shell and the first two floors with an expenditure of $88,000. Some money had to be borne by the caretakers of the first floor in preparation for Completion day. This debt amount to about $20,000. It has been estimated by the architects that the completion of the remaining two floors will involve $40,000 in renovations will cost $20,000. This would bring the total cost to $80,000.
Doctor Lindley cited the Michigan Union as an example of the ability of such an institution to deal with the organizational scheme as a "social laboratory" and to a completed Union building, which you might glad to have had a part in building.

Japanese Prints May Be Seen in Spooner-Thayer
The basement of Spooner-Thuye museum will be open tomorrow, from 2 to 5 p. m., for the purpose of displaying some of the stencils. These stencils, by means of which exquisite and intricate designs are transferred to textile fabrics, are not only a novelity but is very popular for many lovers of Japanese art.
The stencils are made by passing two amine-imposed sheets of strong but very thin paper upon a board. The paper is inserted into the paper being often left in extraordinarily fine lines of fragile pattern. The paper is then soaked from the board and the two parts are separated in order to allow the fibers of human hair and the finest silk, making a network of gos-samer-like delicacy that holds the stencel together. The stencils exhibited include a series of period of 1871 to 1890.

Hell Week Argument Fails
Fraternity Men Do Not Appear to Defend Own Side
Hell Week, despite its popularity with certain members of each of the fraternity houses, is being willing to argue their side of the question; Should Hell Week be abolished in the fraternity debate, or should a separate debate, for, according to Prof. E. C. Buchler of the department of speech, applicants who wish to speak
The trouble is that no one has come forward to speak in favor of Hell Week, and we everyone knows, there must be two sides argued before there
According to Professor Buchler, a public discussion of the subject seems very doubtful because of the nature of the question. There are none but the fraternity men to apologize for themselves; they do not wish to come to the fore.
Professor Buller says that, in other debate, having for its subject more suitable question, has made him think this dispute will be announced later.
