Chemical Building Fund Complete

The fund of $100,000, given by numerous benefactors for the building and endowment of the Wolcott Gibbs Memorial Laboratory, is now in the hands of the Treasurer. This fund was begun over a year ago by the gift of $50,000 from Dr. Morris Loeb '83 and James Loeb '88, on condition that an equal sum be raised to complete the total named above. The building is to be used for research in physical and inorganic chemistry. The plans are rapidly nearing completion in the hands of the architect. A. W. Long-fellow '77, and it is hoped that ground will be broken during the early summer, on the proposed site, south of the Peabody Museum.
