BEERBOWER, SNOW, BOWEN Health Residence Located in the southeastern corner of the campus is that building known to all as the Health Residence. Every year Dr. Snow and her staff strive to keep the students in the prime physical condition so necessary to suc- cessful college work. The yearly physical examination, the nose spray, and throat swab- bing for those inevitable colds, and the light treatments for aching muscles are familiar examples of the many services provided. GRATTON. FARNHAM McKenny Hall The center of all social activities is the col- lege union, Charles McKenny Hall. This union, in which students and alumni have an equal investment, fosters a spirit of true fel- lowship. College mixers, dinners, formal dances, forensic activities, informal and for- mal chats are held in the beautiful rooms of McKenny Hall. Miss Frances Farnham, former Associate Dean of Women, assisted by Miss Myra Gratton, former instructor at the Conserva- tory, is expertly managing the Union. MRS. ELLIOT Dormitory Manager The task of supplying balanced, appeti2;ing meals is a great one. Food shortages due to the war have made it particularly difficult for Mrs. Elliot, who in the capacity of dormi- tory Director, also acts as Dietician. With skillful management she has done a com- mendable job in serving nutritious, appealing meals. Under her supervision the Residence Halls always give the appearance of well- kept, cheerful homes. 14

Munson Hdll Munson Hall serves as a modern, comfortable home for college men. Here, under the expert and efficient guidance of head residents, Mr. and Mrs. Ralph F. Gildenstein, the men are given over to self ' government and the routine runs very smoothly. The men have a dormitory council to assist in the planning of social activities and other pertinent matters at the dorm. The men, in their fourth year of leadership under Mr. Gilden ' stein, are completely at home when they first enter the dormitory. Checker contests, ping ' pong games, movies, splash parties, and numerous other events help to enrich life in the build ' ing. The dorm, the most modern in this section of our country, with a grill room, recreation room, four floors now almost filled to capacity, has been in the past, and still is, a center for alumni and former students returning home from the war. This comfortable, pleasant, and well-managed campus home helps the men to become more proud of their Alma Mater. MR. AND MRS. GILDENSTEIN HOUSE COUNCIL THE GANGS ALL HERE END OF A PERFECT DAY 13
