Everybody wants it Scrambling to the Owl for weekend cash Money doesn't make the world go around, but it does have a lot to do with how fast it spins. Needless to say, the quality of a student's life of ten depended on cash flow and cash flow depended on some form of banking institution. Whether it be a home or local bank, a banking machine or a direct cash line from mom and dad. A lack of cash could bring a student's life to a standstill. To halt this standstill, students went to one of any number of local banks to draw on whatever finances available. Twentieth Street Bank was a popular institution with Marshall students on campus because of the convenient location of both its main and branch banks, 1900 Third Ave. and 1751 Fifth Ave., repectively. Students could just cross the street to find their pot o' gold. Just as convenient for students and staff alike was The Owl, an auto- mated teller, located at the Memorial Student Center. Thanks to First Huntington National Bank, those with the plastic could just walk up, press a few buttons and walk away with hard cash. Owl machines were not without problems though. It was very easy to scramble a checkbook’s balance with the slip of a stray finger. This was a friendly fate to many students when they needed cash in a hurry. 24 Student Life
