Schommer Ye Faculty Club is a haven that professors seek between classroom hours, during lunch hour, or after the day's labor. Some seek the solitude of the library to read or meditate. Others seek the billiard table for exercise. Here, balls are struck with hammer blows in hopes that if the cueball rolls long enough the billiard will ultimately be made. It is just the old fight between the pure science men, probability experts, and the adherents of applied sci- ence. Points are recorded by vigorously flipping the buttons along the overhead wire. Misses are indicated with trip-hammer blows that wear out the butts of the cues and peril Mission's aged foundations. The blows committee is seriously considering stringing up half buttons for all near billiards. While watching the game, others exercise their lungs in a declamatory style, peddling their thoughts like mountebanks, on politics, NRA, FERA, or what not. Exultant laughter with staccato interrogations of Why didn't you return my lead? and Don't you ever read Culbertson? are heard from the card room. Thick smoke beclouds this retreat, and brows are knit and faces flushed as the tide of victory ebbs and flows. Ye Faculty Club also serves for meetings and entertainments given by the faculty men or their wives. At the spring banquet, on May 25, Pat Barnes, the noted radio announcer, gave in inimitable manner many impersonations, and Cal Johnson of the ’Daily News' displayed moving pictures on outdoor life. For its annual Christmas Party the Faculty Club presented, at Thorne Hall, Human Adventure, a talking picture of Man's complete history. The Facul- ty Women's Club gave several card parties and dinners thoroughly enjoyed by everyone at- tending. So it is easily understood how Ye Faculty Club performs a valuable service in the life at Armour Tech.
