State Regents plan land purchase for Berkeley expansion
Negotiations between the state university regents and landowners aim to acquire twelve blocks in Berkeley for university enlargement after the fire. New buildings will rise on these lands, with no agricultural gardens planned, and options are being secured as lawmakers may fund the purchase next session. The expansion shifts from the east hillside to contiguous lands north of campus for buildings and the Greek theatre area to become botanical gardens. The state railroad commission reports 516706.78 dollars spent in the fiscal year. Adjunct General Mittlestaedt will recruit the California National Guard to full wartime strength, starting with field artillery, current strength 3600.
