A. pledging $100, the amount promised mounted to $490 and the number of organiza tions on the honor roll rose to eight.

All organ izations meeting during the week will be approached by committee members and asked to give their financial support to the project. Pledges blanks will te furnished and amounts pledged may be paid in a lump sum or in four install ments. Pledges Returnable. It is believed that the Regents will give their final approval of the union building proposal which has been before student eyes since early last spring at the board's meeting Jan. 11. With official sanction of the proposal the drive will gather impetus. If. however, approval is withheld, pledges al ready made will not be collected.

The proposed structure would contain two ballrooms, lounges, a restaurant and offices for all pub lications and activities. The struc ture would be paid for by student and alumni donations, and a fed eral loan which would be paid back by a student tax not to ex ceed one dollar per person.
