GALLAUDET FID NEARLYCONPLETE Grateful Alumni Raise $42,- 000 for Memorial Hall for College. Culminating & 22-year drive In con- nection with the proposed program of expansion on Kendall Green, Prof. Har- ley D. Drake, treasurer of the Edward Miner Gallaudet Memorial Fund, in charge of the campaign, announced yesterday that it is expected to present the sum of $50,000 on February 5, Founder's day, to the board of directors of Gallaudet College. A memorial hall is regarded as likely to be established on the college grounds. ‘With $42,000 of the amount already in his custody, Prof Drake is confident that the enthusiasm of alumni and vari- ous State agents charged with raising assigned quotas will put them “over the top” one month from today. Prof. Drake sald speculation is still rife as to what kind of building is to be erected on Kendall Green as a me- morial to Dr. Gallaudet. That is a matter to be left to the determination of the college authorities. Dining Room Necessary. “At present,” Dr. Drake declared, fol- lowing a conference with President Per- cival Hall, “Gallaudet College needs a building which can hold a library, and a large hall in which the student body can gather for lectures, parties, dances, public meetings, stage productions, and moving pictures. This would permit the dismantling of the stage in the chapel and the use of the space it now occuples for much-needed dining room accommodations for the students. ‘The chapel then can be devoted to iis real purpose. “The first floor of College Hall, the | a¢ young men’'s dormitory, is now used mostly for administrative and business purposes. By housing the administra- tive and business offices in the Memo- rial Hall, and by partitioning the pres- ent library into bed rooms, from 25 to 30 more students could be cared for. Such a building might also have room THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. 1 PROF. HARLEY D. DRAKE. for visiting alumni, a museum and fraternity quarters. Gymnasium Needed. “There is also need for a new gym- nasium with modern equipment,” Prof. Drake continued. “The present struc- ture is one of the oldest of its kind in the District, and is much too small for the number of spectators that usually attend the indoor games.” Many people are of the belief, accord- ing to Prof. Drake, that the present name of Gallaudet College was taken after founder. This idea is wrong. Dr. Gal- laudet had, indeed, been offered this honor, it was explained, but declined such_distinction, preferring to see his equally distinguished father become re- cipient of the homage. Until 1894 the college on Kendall Green was known as the National Deaf- Mute College, but the board of directors uiesced with the petition of alumni to have it changed to Gallaudet College as a deserving tribute to Thomas Hop- kins Gallaudet, friend, teacher, and benefactor of the American deaf. ‘Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet established the first free and permanent school for the deaf in America in Hartford, Conn,, after having studied methods in Europe, LANSBURGH & BRO 7th, 8th and E Sts.—FAMOUS FOR QUALITY SINCE 1860—National 9800 More Than 50 Smart Colors in This Extraordinary Presentation! 40-Inch Rich Satin Crepé or Heavy Flat Crepe Qualities Usually $2.00 $1. 7 4 Yard An opportune time to buy silks for Spring dresses that must soon be started—and for the smart lingerie to wear under them!

It took the form of a beautifully framed testimonial printed on vellum richly embellished, prepared by three foremost graduates of Gallaudet College, who acted as spokesman for the alumni of the college. On February 5, 1907, on the occasion of the seventieth birthday anniversary of Dr. Gallaudet and the fiftieth anniversary of his labors on Kehdall Green, the spokesmen signal- ized the day by informing Dr. Gallaudet of the establishment of the fund. A goal of $50,000 was set. LINDBERGHS IN ARIZONA. WINSLOW, Ariz, January 4 (P).— | Col. Charles A.
