Youth Memorial Fund Drive Launched
Ag College Campus
Structure to Cost
$250,000
American Legion sponsored
efforts to raise at least 250
thousand dollars for a Nebra
ska Youth Memorial building
took concrete form recently
with the release of an archi
tect’s conception of the pro
posed structure, which is to be
located on the University of
Nebraska college of agriculture
campus.
The building will serve as
headquarters for the thousands
of boys and girls from out
state who convene at various
times during the year for
youth programs at the state
university.
Tentative plans call for
accommodations to simultan
eously feed and house 400
youngsters, both boys and
girls.
In addition to the 4-H club
groups and the Cornhusker
Boys’ and Girls’ States, the
building will house high school
students from all over Nebraska
who journey to the state uni
versity for musical festivals,
basketball tournaments and
other activities. Such groups as
the Flying Farmers, Feeders’
day gatherings, agricultural ex
tention groups and short course
attendants will also utilize the
building.
Harry B. Coffee, of Omaha,
chairman of the sponsoring
committee, recently said funds
for the building will be solici
ted from the entire Nebraska
population to use in promoting
all statewide youth and agri
culture programs.
W. W, Burr, dean of fhe
college of agricuture. describ
_ -- _ »
ed the proposed building as
"the answer to a long-hoped
for need, as well as an in
vestment in Nebraska's 2
fundamental resources —
youth and agriculture."
On March 15, Gov. Val Peter
ion, in an official proclama
tion, urged every citizen of the
;tate to give full support to the
ampaign. At that time, Legion
spokesmen pointed out that
ne drive is particulaly worthy,
for Nebraska citizens are being
asked to donate to a cause from
which they will directly bene
fit.
E. P. Barnes, of Omaha, state
commander of the American
Legion, emphasized that the
civic campaign for the Youth
Memorial building is to be ‘‘by
Nebraskans, for Nebraskans —
an investment which will result
in a badly needed building
constructed on state property,
for all of our Nebraska youth”!
As conceived, the building
will be a living "memorial"

"In broader terms, however,

youth of today, and the youth
of tomorrow who will use the
building through the years”,
r'~ lirman Coffee said.
