Completed in early 1940, the first student union at the University of Arkansas was named the John Clinton Futrall Memorial Hall in honor of the long-serving university president who had died in 1939. The hall, built at the corner of Maple Street and Campus Drive, was funded by a fee that students imposed upon themselves after an editorial campaign by the student newspaper, The Arkansas Traveler. When built, it included offices for student organizations, a ballroom, game rooms, a bookstore and cafe. Its name was shortened to Memorial Hall when a new residential hall, Futrall Hall, was built. Today, the building is used by the university departments of landscape architecture and psychology. Postally unused, this card was printed circa 1955 by the Curt Teich Company of Chicago, Illinois, and distributed by Ozark Post Card Publishers of Monett, Missouri.
