BUDGET RECEIPTS NEAR $12,000 GOAL

With the last day of registration over, the student Council Budget Committee is well on its way toward the goal of $12,000 which it has set. A good portion of this has already been received, and the Committee will send out bills for the rest of the money which has been pledged, in the near future.

The purpose of the Student Council Budget is to eliminate the many solicitations which the University administration have sanctioned in the past as for example the oscillations for the Phillips Brooks House, and Class Funds, as well as to pay for sundry expenses occurred by the Student Council, as in furnishing Freshman common rooms and so forth. The $12,000 budget is divided among all the institutions which would otherwise have to solicit independently. The budget pledges which average about $5, therefore constitute the sole expense of this sort incurred.

The budget Committee appointed last spring consists of C. H. Pforzheimer Jr. '28 chairman, and James de Normandie '29, John de Loittre '29, F. B. Lee '29, and H. F. Swartz '29. T. D. Howe Jr. '28 who was appointed at the same time has resigned on account of absence in Europe.

All checks should be made payable to the Harvard Student Council and sent in care of the Student Council, 10 Mower Hall.
