canopies of cool, inviting siiade Entrance Now almost forgotten, and rarely used, covered by vines and shrubbery, the President ' s Entrance is a sentimental re- minder of days of the past. Then it was all important, leading into the president ' s offices. Now, since the rapid growth of the school, the ad- ministration offices have been moved to the newer upper campus. Thus the old is un- used and forgotten, making way for the new. Leaving this shrine of days that have been, we round the Education Build- ing to the College Building. . . ■ Building Remember those mad dash- es to assembly from your 10:30 class on the hill? Up the steps to College hall, where, if you were lucky, you had a; friend with a seat wait- ing for you. Otherwise, you probably stood. And in this same hall you often gathered to share in Brigham Young ' s fine music and dramatic pre- sentations.

Originally the home of the administration offices, the building now hous- es the art, geology, education, chemistry, psychology, phys- ics and home economics de- partments. Room D, on the third floor, was the first Assem- bly hall of the Institution, and now serves as a combination study room, art gallery, and museum.

It ' s a good thing it ain ' t talkin ' If it could, it might reveal lots of things. It could tell your secrets — secrets whispered to your one and only {all five of them). It could tell of your ambitions and plans, your hopes and desires — confidences revealed as you paused on one of its sides. Or, again, it might embarrass those lazy Freshmen you ducked in its shallow depths . Fresh- men must whitewash the Y on the east mountain — or else. Gift of an early graduat- ing class, the fountain could greet as an old friend, every student since that time.

Following one well- traveled route we came to the 2nd East Steps — popular in spring and fall because of the beauty of the rich foliage and shrubbery bordering them — and on moonlight nights be- q use of Lover ' s Lane brancfi- irig off at the middle landing. At the top of the steps we find the Sundial. ... Passing the training school, we see a group of athletes lounging on the steps. May- be you ' ve noticed that you sel- dom pass here without glimps- ing some of the boys. The reason might be that the top floor of this building is ath- letic headquarters, with men ' s gymnasium and coaches ' of- fice. And you education maj- ors probably had your first teaching experience here, be- cause it is the little red schoolhouse for the element- ary grades of the Brigham Young University Training School .... 4 » -
