Before Actual Coustrurtion
Of Dormitory Cun Begin
Work upon the proposed $150,000
new dormitory for University of
Georgia men students will proceed
immediately after April 16, Chancel
lor Charles M. Snelllng announced
today.
Due to a small legal formality,
plans for construction of the new
building have been held up tempor
arily until a court order is issued the
board of trustees, permitting them to
go forward with the details.
Funds for the building are to be
taken from the principal of the
Charles McDonald Brown loan schol
arship fund, which now amounts to
$317,923.52.
Rentals to Pay Interest
Five per cent interest to be de
rived from rentals will be paid an
nually to the scholarship fund by
the university trustees, which will be
ample to insure the continuity of
loans to worthy students, and at the
same time provide high-class, but
low-priced living quarters for them.
The trustees have guaranteed to take
care of any deficit which may arise
from the venture.
Definite steps as to selection of the
site, the type of buildings, and the
awarding of the contract will be
taken Immediately after the court
hearing.
Building plans and activities will
be under the direct supervision of a
committee appointed by the trustees,
which consists of Howell C. Erwin,
and Judge Thomas F. Green, mem
bers of the prudential committee;
Chancellor Charles M. Knelling; and
George M. Brown, son of the donor
of the Brown Fund.
The loan fund was donated in
1882 by Joseph E. Brown, of Ma
rietta, who named it in honor of his
son.
