REPORT ON ALUMNI FUND

Since the entrance of the United States into the war the Alumni Council through its special committee has sent out an urgent appeal for further contributions to this fund. This appeal tells most dramatically what Dartmouth is doing to serve the nation in this crisis and states that the cost to Dartmouth of the war this year alone in added expense and diminished income, will not be far from $20,000.
