va' Extra CASTANET Future U. S. G. BUILDS NEW ADDITION THIRTY STORY STRUCTURE FOR ROGERS PARK The latest addition to the University School for Girls will be located at Howard Ave. and the Lake, thus making an unbroken file of buildings extending from Oakdale Ave. to Evanston. In Miss Haire's statement to the press she disclosed the plan of the School Board to buy up the city of Evanston for the construc- tion of a new hockey field and golf course. The Northwestern University buildings will he torn down, and a new stadium built to replace Dyche, will seat 150,000 for the athletic contests. The new thirty story structure will have every convenience. It will have 400 Studio Duplex apartments-one for each girl. New equipment has been installed in all the buildings. Cars may now be taken into the ground fioor rear of the building and parked there-thus eliminating the traflic question and the un- necessary walk from car to classes. There are also chaufIeur's rooms and social halls on the ground Hoor. Airplanes will be kept in the newly constructed hangars on the Hackett Flying Field. Limestone for the new building is being furnished by Betty Dickinson, '30, of the Dickinson Limestone Co. The new addition will be ready for occupancy in two months. PROMINENT CHICAGOAN COMMITS SUICIDE Miss Dorothy Braun was found strangled to death by a wire coat hanger in her apartment at the Lake Shore Drive Hotel late last night. Police headquarters were baffled until clever detectives, after a long search through the entire apartment, found a note pinned to the lamp shade. It read: To all whom it may concern: This is the only way out. I can go on no longer. I had to choose between acting, writing, or making angel food cakes as a career. Goodbye, Dorothy. Friends and relatives were notified immed- iately and an inquest will be held Thursday. 38 CONGRESS TO ADOPT FARLEIGH PLAN By a two-thirds majority of Congress, the Farleigh plan was passed today. In Miss Farleigh's two hour address to that body, she said: Last year the currency was reduced fthe tenth time in three yearsb to one square inch. I see no reason for not dispensing with it entirely and conducting business purely on credit-it is a trustful nation, anyway. WOMEN'S ANTI-ATHLETIC LEAGUE MEETS HERE Miss Nora Roberts, head of the W. A. A. L., declared that athletic contests for women are vulgar. She strongly discouraged the practice among the young, and is planning a nation wide campaign for its prevention. JOSEPHINE KILLIAN HAILED AS SECOND MME. CURIE Miss Josephine Killian, on being awarded the Noble Prize for Research in Chemistry following her discovery of the illusive hydoxena- liteum element, declared, It was nothing- purely elementary. She shared honors with Betty Lange, her colleague, who has done some remarkable work with automobile engines. SUZANNE MORRIS TO HEAD U. OF C. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Suzanne Morris, the youngest person ever appointed a full professorship, will become head of the English department at the University of Chicago at the beginning of the fall term.
