Twelve hundred and twenty-six dollars is the grand total collected so far in the University drive for the Roosevelt Memorial Fund. Team A, headed by Hugh Ward '20, is still well in the lead, with $527.50 to its credit, while Team C, under R. E. Larsen '21, is in second place with $359,50. Team B, under F. U. Perry '21, has collected $339.
