The aibove table gives the class standings of all the alumni on April 1,
1924. A close scrutiny of the table reveals some interesting facts. One of the
striking things is the fact that 250 former students have contributed $16,751 10
the Greater Kentucky Campaign. Of this numlber 172 have paid dues to the
Alumni Association.
There are a great many former students who might be interested in contributing to the fund if their addresses could be obtained. The office has practically all the graduates listed but the former students are numerous and hard
to find. Anyone knowing some former students who are not members of the
Association will be doing the Association a favor if they will send in their
names and addresses.
The talblc shows that 947 members are paid up for this year. At the first
of April last year 1,084 members had paid their dues. It does not look well
to see the old memlbers that far 'behind. Checks for dues will ibe gladly received at any time. Help to raise the numlber up to last year's totals.
You will notice that 1,278 alumni and former students have contributed to
the Greater Kentucky iCampaign fund. Therefore about 300 who contributed
are not members of the Association. Altogether alumni and former students
have pledged $81,399.25. The present students, faculty and outside contributors
have raised this to more than $200,000.

of

C. C. Calhoun, of Washing-to- n,
D. C, president of the Alumni Association and general chairman of the

Capt.

Campaign, was in
Lexington several days last week assisting in the location of the stadium
and attending to other matters of the
Associaion. After a long deliberation
over three possible locations the committee decided to Ibuild the stadium on
the east side of Stoll Field atWinslow
and Rose streets..
The chief reason for choosing the
upper end of the field instead of the
lower end was due to the fact that the
city authorities did not think a sewer
could be constructed at the lower end
of the field where the stadium would
set in time for the stadium to be built

'Greater Kentucky

this summer. The sewer would have
to be constructed before the stadium
could be erected there. The committee also stated that they could erect the
stadium at the upper end of the field
wihout destroying the present football field. This being the case the team
will be assured of grounds for next
fall even if the stadium is not complet
ed. The committee, however, is confi
dent that it can be completed in time
for the football season.
While Capt. Calhoun was here Howard P. Ingels and J. Irvine Lyle, both
of New York, were here for a meeting of the board of trustees
of the
University. General plans have been
made for Alumni Day during comCapt. Calhoun
