I Broad vision of the National Capital as a model or center of the religious activities of the country is evolving out of the nation-wide campaign for funds for a new Presbyterian church at Chevy Chase circle. The project at Chevy Chase is the inception of a movement with a view to more atten- tion to the need of properly and adequately housing congregations and Sunday schools and to stimulating in- terest in the work of the churches.

Colladay of the citizens’ committee today made a special appeal to the citizens of Wash- ington to respond to the call for sub- scriptions for funds for the church project. “We need money,” he said. “to erect a beautiful edifice on Chevy Chase Circle, representative of the best ideals of the nation’s capital, and we want it from the representative men of Washington for a representa- tive church that will serve as a credit to_the capital. “The church is not just a local in- stitution, but is to be developed along broad lines of community service and of service to the city at large and to the country. Its building will be a opening wedge in a movement for a proper building program that should be carried on in every city in the land. and it should reflect Washington as a model for this purpose in the interest of practical Christianity.” Many men and women who have not so far sub- scribed are expected to bring checks or subscriptions with them to the church Sunday. The campaign man- agers have asked that all who will not e able to be present Sunday send their checks to Mr. Colladay as chalr- man of the citizens’ committee. Semator Calder Lapds Work. Tribute to the broad vision of the Chevy Chase church in seeking to en- large its housing facilities and in planning to perform a wider scope activities for the community was paid by Senator Calder of New York, a deacon in the Dutch Reformed Church, 2 meeting_at Chevy Chase last night. He predicted there would soon be a beautiful edifice, and that the in- fluence of its work would radiate out from the National Capital throughout the country. He said the project is im- portant to meet the community-wide needs of Chevy Chase and of Wash- ington. and that the Chevy Chase church should be a model of national interest “to all of us in the city be- low to come out to see and to enjoy. As an expert who had built thousands of houses in Brooklyn, he eaid that it was right to build now, and that by the time the building is begun build- ing costs will be from 40 to 50 per cent less than last year and nearly as cheap as at any time for some years to come. He said building costs were never going to pre-war basis.

PLAN FOR ASSEMBLING SOUTHERN YALE CLUBS Committees of the Southern Yale Clubs are completing their arrange- ments for the meeting of the Asso- ciated Southern Yale Clubs, to be held in this city May 27 and 28. The purpose of this meeting is to stimulate interest in_Yale throughout the south and to bring together the organization of Yale clubs which has not met since the be- ginning of the war. The meeting wiil be the first held in this city and members of the local committee are actively engaged in rounding up all Yale men of this city, and desire that they send in their acceptance at once. Under the leadership of Maj. Wil- liam W. Gordon, ir., of Savannah, Ga., the Associated Southern Yale Clubs were formed and were successfully bringing together the Yale men who make their homes in the southern states It was planned to hold an an- nual meeting in Washington several years ago. But the war came on and the plan was abandoned. The coming meeting is the fulfillment of that plan and marks a_revivification of the or- ganization of the southern clubs of Yale. It is expected that all of the south- ern Yale clubs will be represented at the meeting here, and that questions ot particular interest to the south, with regard to Yale, will be up for discusaion. The south is territory from which Yale has drawn many men in the past The southern states are represented largely in the undergraduate body to- day. With the representatives of the Yale clubs of the south there will meet in the National Capital, repre- entatives from the Yale clubs of ew England and other parts of the country as guests of the southern clubs. ~Arrangements have been made for all those attending the meeting to call upon President Harding at the White House Photegraph shows the the funeral the casket was eld.
