A. C. Union that the week of November 19 to 24 be set aside as Excavation week with a half day off the course of the week. A committee of faculty members will work with the student committee arranging the schedule of hours so as to affect classes as little the as possible. Harvey Prescott, '24, heads student committee on general arrangements. F. A. Gould, '07, member of the civil the engineering department, will cooperate with men in charge of the work in regard to provid ing suitable men to keep the building lines and levels at the proper points throughout the week. The faculty has been invited to lend a hand in the undertaking. the staff of This is the identical plan which was proposed last spring but which was rejected because col lege officials were not willing to allow the work to be started until it could be entirely completed. At its meeting on September 14 the State Board passed the following resolution: to start work for permission the building committee of "On motion of Mr. Watkins, the request the M. A. C. of Union imme diately on the Union Memorial building, was granted." With this action as a basis the faculty was petitioned by the Union board for permission to have 90 men and 20 co-eds excused from classes on each half day from Nov. 19 to 24. of the that arrangements It was also proposed be band made whereby certain portions could be present for an hour each half day to add to the spirit of the occasion. It is probable that this feature will be worked out satisfactorily. Under faculty each student must show a certificate supporting his contention that he applied his spare time on the excavating work before he can be given an excuse from classes for the periods he missed. the conditions approved by the As outlined previously, the plan comprehends the student body into groups of the division of of Some about 90 men and 20 co-eds each. these groups will be made up by combining the strength of several societies and fraternities and others will be filled inde pendents. Ten campus leaders have been se lected for foreman, one to aid the superintendent these students on each half day.

Preliminary work will be done this week when the exact the architects will location of the building and trees and top soil will be removed from the site. Several student com mittees are taking care of the organization plans so that the work can be done with the the least possible confusion. The students are also pre paring a list of prizes which will be offered dur ing the week with the intention of keeping interest in the project at its highest possible point. Arrangements were made last spring whereby motion pictures and views of the groups at work These could be made will be carried out this fall. The alumni motion picture reel will contain important events con nected with Excavation week as well as Home coming pictures. for publicity purposes. It in many colleges. A plan through which the students of a college the size of M. A. C. take it upon themselves to complete work of this magnitude has not been at tempted is something en tirely new to most institutions and will prove a source of advantageous publicity. News and fea ture agencies serving a wide field have promised to use desirable pictures and to explain the oper ation of the plan in a story of sufficient length to do it justice. Because of its novel character Excavation week will draw favorable comment from a large proportion of the reading public. The week will be largely devoid of ceremonv but it is expected that college officials will take a prominent part in the work. To do his share each man must dig a trench nine feet long, three feet wide and three feet deep or slightly larger. Early estimates place the amount of dirt to be removed at 3500 cubic yards. This may be a lit tle larger than the exact yardage as it was only approximated by a representative of the archi- tectss.

With the faculty cooperating it can provide the students with a closer human touch with their instructors than- many of them could have otherwise. From any viewpoint the results are certain to be bene ficial. It can react to the lasting benefit of there is the Of course that both of the prevailing styles list of doubters who say that M. A. C. does not have the virile set of men it had in days past, there are those who con sider the plan for excavation week as a visionary scheme, unworkable and lacking popular support. Those who have closely followed campus activi ties can testify these premises are wrong. The student of today may dress closer to the one of twenty years ago, he may drive a second hand flivver in his spare moments where his predeces sor would spend his time in meditation over press ing problems of the day but his heart is as stout and as loyal to M.
