The MESIDIWS HOUSE, situated ou the campus, saw its second occupants last fall when Dr. Yochuni anil his family moved into it. It was built during l)r. Mees' administration. Several rooms in HUXLEY SCHOOL, across Main street from the campus, were pressed into service this year as increased enrollment and crowded conditions made expansion necessary. l.OY GYMNASIUM served a double purpose this year. Until the barracks were completed, about eighty fellows slept and studied here; after they moved out, the gym reverted to its status as home of the athletic department. [ 10]

With limited and inadequate facilities imposed by old age, LEONARD SCII:i Ch IIAI.L continues to serve Capital University. This building, now housing the chemistry and physics departments, will soon be replaced by a new building in which all the natural sciences will be located. [9] As an emergency measure to relieve the acute housing shortage this year, five former Army BARRACKS have been set up on campus. These tem- porary units each house sixteen fellows.
