The Annex building iTselT will soon be iusT a memory To iTs Tormer sTu- denTs.

STudy, recreaTion, and reIaxaTion are imporTanT parTs oT a college sTudenT's busy liTe. When he is noT in class, he needs a guieT place To sTudy and a noT-so-guieT place where he can relax and exchange ideas. BeTore This year, The one and only college lounge was locaTed nexT To The MCC oTTice in The Annex. This was The room where sTudenTs meT, sTudied, conversed, played cards, and snacked on cokes and candy which They pur- chased Trom The machines There. This was The one parT oT The building solely reserved Tor MCCers. And iT was nearly bursTing iTs seams! The TacT ThaT This lounge was puT To such hard use proved ThaT The sTudenTs needed and deserved more lounging space. ThereTore, when MCC obTained The presenT build- ing, Three rooms were seT aside Tor This purpose. These rooms have been equipped To meeT The non-academic needs oT college men and women. In addiTion, MCC now has an adeguaTeIy sTocked library Tor The research which is noT only all-imporTanT To good grades, buT is deTiniTeIy indis- pensable Tor a sound educaTion. IT a sTudenT wishes To sTudy inTensiveIy, he can do so in The noiseless library. IT he would raTher discuss The lesson or compare noTes, The place Tor him is The large second Tloor sTudy lounge. Does he need a quick pick-me-up? T-Ie can buy pop, milk, and orange drink Trom The machines in The candy room, in addiTion To candy and gum, oT course. Perhaps he is The Type who would raTher TorgeT iT all Tor a while and iusT Talk or parTicipaTe in a Triendl game OT cards. I-le will Tind agreeable companions in The TirsT Tloor game lounge. IT he would raTher exerT his body Than his mind Temporarily, he can make good use oT The ping- pong Table in The adjoining room. ThereTore, while The sTudenTs have noT changed, The school has!

The Automotive Electricity course covers tive basic sections: regulators, generators, starters: distributors: automotive batteries and ignition circuit: power tune procedure. In Welding classes, practice tor developing skills may be obtained in such phases as spot welding, arc welding, and acetylene welding. In such courses as Dratt- ing, Blueprinting, and Machine Shop, equal attention is given in pursuance ot a hobby or actual upgrading in the vocation ot the class member. Cabinet Making is taught at the Moline Senior l-ligh School where a complete line ot modern woodworking machinery and hand tools are available.

Perhaps the advancement of which we should be niost proud cannot be measured in today's popular terins of force or energy or speed. Perhaps it has no dinlensions at all in the usual sense but can only be assessed by comparison with the past. Indeed, it is not unlikely to consider that our greatest mark of progress is the accessibility to modern, progressive education enjoyed by to- day's youth, including the opportunities for educational advancement offered by junior col- leges, of which the Moline Community College is such a worthy representative. It is such centers of learning which have put within reach of so lnany of our youth the kind of advanced study which otherwise would be little lnore than a fervent yearning-which have brought to the very heart of the conlnlunity, the colnpetent, flexible, and thoroughly prac- tical curricula so valuable in a colnplex era. And we believe we express the feelings of lnany when we voice enthusiastic appreciation of these and other advantages which Moline Colnnlunity College brings to this area, of its notable con- tribution to the cultural growth of the coni- munity to the common benefit of all.
