It is probably one of the biggest ideas of recent years for future development in medicine, and especially in medical research. The WVhitrnan Laboratory of Experimental Zoology was dedi- cated in June IQ26. This building, costing SIO0,000, was the gift of Professor and Mrs. Frank R. Lillie. A new chemistry building, the Jones Laboratory, for which Mr. George Herbert Jones gave 5,415,000 in the Autumn of 1926, is to be erected in the near future on the ground West of Kent. This building will relieve the overcrowded conditions now prevailing in the chemistry laboratories by taking care of all graduate and re- search work, and leaving Kent for the undergraduate teaching. The Jones Laboratory is the first unit of a large chemistry program. Proposed buildings, for which funds are being sought, include buildings for Social Service, Mathematics, Administration, Art, a High School, and a building for the Graduate School in Education. 26

ALUMNI A committee of Alumni and members of the Faculty began Work last spring with this major premise: 'LThe Alumni are to be recog- nized as a part of the University body. They comprize a group to be cultivated and a new force to be properly directed toward strength- ening and advancing the University. Wiith this assumption the committee set to work. The program which it adopted for strengthening the connections of Alumni with their Alma Mater provides for more than a dozen lines of approach to the problem. For one thing, it includes a more intensive use of machinery already set up: adaptation and wider circulation of The University of Chi- cago Magazineg a fuller and more interesting program for Reunion and Homecomingg co- operation in the development of Alumni clubs, extension of the records of the Alumnig an organized plan for the reception of visiting Alumni, with opportunities for attending classes, seeing new buildings, and chatting with favorite faculty membersg radio programs planned especially for the Alumni. The program includes frequent communications-booklets, letters from the President or favorite deans or professors-giving the Alumni information about the University. It provides for visits by professors to Alumni clubs and individual Alumni throughout the country. The University accepted the proposal, and created a committee of the Faculty, called the Board of Alumni Relations, to carry out the University's share of the Work, in co-operation with the Alumni Council. Dean Emery T. Filbey was released last Fall from his teaching duties for one year to take charge of the work of this Board. A certain professor, let us say, plans to do a piece of research Work in Mem- phis, Tennessee. He is an authority in political science, his studies in the ma- chinery of city government have attracted Wide attention. He can tell a story about the University's Work in this field that will interest anybody who is awake to the day's problems. Dean Filbey, in touch with all departments and schools of the University, learns of this professor's contemplated trip. TI1im1ERMAN Page 26'
