HARVARD FRIENDSHIP BIT TOPS ALL OTHERS

Harvard's contribution to the Student Friendship Fund for the relief of suffering European students is at present $6,101.18, according to the figures compiled by F. T. Baldwin '4, chairman of the drive which was held in all departments of the University during January.

The goal set was $5000. The sum received represents not only an over subscription of more than 20 per cent but also, as far as can be discovered, the largest single subscription of any educational institution in the country. It is Harvard's share of the $186,000, the total gift of American colleges and universities.

More Contributions Expected

The drive, which closed in the College on January 12, has continued in the graduate schools, collection being difficult as a result of the scattered residence of the students. It is possible that a few more gifts may be received.

Of the grand total, $1,503 was given by graduate students, and $605,50 by members of faculty. The remainder $3,911.30, came from undergraduates, the Freshmen responding with the greatest share, $1,338.05.

Unknown Gift Swells Total

The total contribution of the University, it was announced, is being doubled by the gift of a New York foundation of Unknown name. A check for $4,500 has been in the hands of the New York office of the Student Friendship Fund for some time, the remainder will be paid over shortly. A special fund, to be privately subscribed, will soon be raised to cover the expenses of the drive. These expenses include the cost of the other literature, and the dinner given to the collectors to explain the mechanism of the drive.
