YALE ALUMNI GIVE FUNDS FOR GREAT WAR MEMORIAL

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Final plans for Yale's memorial to the 227 students and graduates who lost their lives in the World War were announced yesterday by the New Haven authorities.

The memorial will take the form of a colonnade on the south side of the Yale Dining Hall, and will have an alter of liberty in the center as its main feature. Alterations will be made in the Hewitt Quadrangle in front of the colonnade so that it will become a part of the memorial.

The funds for this program were presented to Yale by the Alumni Advisory Board, whose committee, under the chairmanship of F. W. Allen, Yale '00, first interested graduates in the proposal. The type and location of the monument were decided upon by the same Board on the recommendation of another committee.

The design of the proposal memorial, which was made by Thomas Hastings has been approved by the Yale Corporation.
