UNIVERSITY UNION IS WELL ESTABLISHED IN LONDON

Oxford and Cambridge Universities Have Offered Hospitality to Americans.

Communications from the Director of the American University Union in Europe state that the London Branch of the Union is now well established. Since September the Union has had an office in the building of the Farmers' Loan & Trust Company, 16 Pall Mall, East, S.W. 1, where about 200 men have registered. Now, through the courtesy of the same company, the entire first floor has been given over to the Union. A large reading and writing room plentifully supplied with American newspapers and periodicals, together with a Bureau of Information and Registration, is open daily, in charge of Director J. W. Cunliffe, Professor of the Columbia School of Journalism.

Special arrangements have been made with the St. James' Palace Hotel, Bury street, for the accommodation of all American university men. Here also a large writing and reading room and lounge on the ground floor is reserved for the exclusive use of members of the Union, and the restaurant is open at special rates to members of the Union whether or not they occupy rooms.

Oxford and Cambridge Universities have appointed representative committees of hospitality to encourage visits to them by American college men. Any members of the American University Union who wish to avail themselves of the privileges may do so by arrangement with the London Office. All college men, whether graduates or not, are regarded as members of the Union, and all are requested to co-operate with the Director by registering in order to render the work effective.
