O n the day war broke out, Leeds Union was the best in the land. The present main building was completed in 1939 and easily took the then student population of 2,000. Since then, a few additions have been made and University House is almost ours. But in that time, the number of students has quadrupled and the crowding you saw at the Freshers' Conference will be even worse the rest of the year. Through the teeming masses you may, now and then, glimpse a wall. This wall is part of the Union. Follow this wall and you will NEW LO in time see all the Union.
