The members of the committee which has charge of the erection of the new gymnasium at Yale have been so widely scattered during the summer that they have been unable to hold a meeting, and in consequence but little work has been done. The $150,000 required for the erection is secured, but there yet remains $20,000 to be pledged. The committee will, however, meet in New York in a few days to select plans for the gymnasium, and it is hoped by the students that ground will be broken before winter sets in.
The building will be located as originally intended, on Elm street, near York, and will cover ten thousand square feet of ground. Arrangement will be made in the plans for two rowing tanks and a large swimming bath, but probably not for a baseball cage.
