"FINISH THE JOB"

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

With only a Bill over one third of the University enrolled, the last day of the University Hoover Drive is at hand. The sum of $1,000,000, which has been set for the colleges to raise, means that the share of Harvard is three dollars per man, almost three times the present average of $1.19. The total of $3,300 raised so far is only a third of the $10,000 quota which Yale has set for herself. The facts clearly indicate that to treble our present total is the least we can do.

For Harvard to shirk in carrying its share of the national quota seems so preposterous as to be incredible. But to treble a week's work in one day is no easy task. It must be that two-thirds of the University are asleep to the condition of the drive; no one would willingly shirk his share of so deserving an appeal.

The vote of the Student Council to allow a Hoover Drive here was a vote of confidence in the University to see it through. In undertaking the drive, the University at large assumed the responsibility to do its share. Three times the present total is needed today to "finish the job" we have begun.
