Troy Walls Drive Will Roll Again
Alter a lag in progress, work will get underway again next 4 week when the Greater University Committee meets to discuss problems and plans for completion of the Walls of Troy.
Nancy Bates-Lane, chairman of the committee, has announced t'- t the group will meet a! 2:15 next Tuesday to pave the way for the completion of the project.
Initiated by the GUC, Ihe Walls of Troy are the pillars and plaques along Exposition Boulevard. Twenty-one of the pillars in the walls have no plaques showing donation hy any fraternity, sorority, or organization. Some of the pillars have been set with terracotta (blank) plaques to fill-in the spaces where there are none.
Wall Costm $30,000
The walls are not completed he-cause some of the fraternities have not pledged the money for their construction. Each pillar costs $300 and the total amount of the project entails approximately $30,000.
According to Student Body President, Jerry McMahon 14 houses have not pledged the money for their position on the walls. All the sororities have pledged and paid for their pillars. Each house was given a year to pay the pledge.
Fraternities Owe
Several fraternities have not paid the amount they pledged to the university. "The houses that signed pledges owe a legal debt to the university and should pay these bills as the year comes to an end," McMahon said.
‘‘It W'ould be a good idea for the Greater Univei'sity Committee to initiate a drive to induce fraternities that have not contributed to the Walls of Troy, to do so immediately, said Fred D. Fagg III, GUC chairman, who headed the campaign last year.
"There will be no Increase in cost of the pillars," Fagg said.
Anyone interested in contributing to the Walls of Troy should contact John E. Fields, vice-president in charge of development.

Dental Care At Early Age Saves Teeth
"Many of the serious dents! problems people have today might have been prevented by dental care received at sn earlier age.” Dr. Robert W. McNulty, dean of the School of Dentistry, said yesterday.
'Many of the patients who come to the clinic (or aid have had little or no care at all in their childhood. Children are not too young at the age of three to receive dental attention,” Dr. McNulty said in stressing the importance of preventative dentistry.
Dr, McNulty pointed out that
serious conditions may arise in the bone structure of the face if care is not given at an early age. Besides, the cost for dental repair is far more expensive than it would l>e for periodic check-ups
