 Edwin Snugestad Mrs. LaVonne Peterson I Howard Pearson Physical Education lite transition from the ‘‘old barn” to the new modern gym has excited the whole campus—including the phy. cd. faculty. No more squabbling over who gets to use the gym. The men will no longer pull rank over the women. We have three gym floors now. No more searching for some place to hold social functions, convoca- tions, and other activities. Plenty of room in the new gym. For twenty-six years Augsburg teams have been playing at the Armory. Now, the echoes of an Augsburg cheer resounding from the rafters of our new gym will be an inspiration to our team. During the transition from the old to the new gym physical education activities were held at Pillsbury Citizens Service, and at the reconverted National l ea.

New head librarian, Karlis Ozolins, lias introduced a new approach to library service. He, Mrs. Parker, and Miss I.eer have expressed the feeling that it is important to give as much service and help as they can to the students. Auto- mation has come to the library, and the personal help of the library staff can overcome the impersonal feeling one may get. Mr. Ozolins received his master’s degree in library science from the University this year. Miss Leer, assistant librarian, is also furthering her studies at the University. Miss Tangjerd, former librarian, after taking special training in archives work has begun to reorganize the Augsburg Archives. A corner of the second floor of the library has been con- verted into a devotional reading space. The comfortable chairs, the easy atmosphere, and the devotional books were made possible by a fund given in memory of Rev. Charles A. Crouch.

Home Economics One of the most intense programs offered at Augs- burg is in the Home Economics Department. The girls graduating with a degree in Home Ec are ex- pected to know every aspect of their subject and to have practical experience in most phases. One of the most demanding learning experiences provided by this department is called Home Management. Six jun- ior women plunge into the activities of managing a home—cooking, planning, shopping, and staying within a budget. A new instructor this year is Mrs. Kydd, taking the place of Ruth Sonsteng who is on a leave of absence for study in Europe. Mrs. Emma Kydd Miss Ruth Segolson.
