In this year of progress, Barnes Hall has helped PresidmlleFred Schmidt to lead the way towards a more productive and weH-remembered year for its residents. Through the hardships borne by the west wing, awakening Tn , H. 0m ' each morning to the thunderingr 0f the construction Icaszuuh sear Jones machinery 0n the new addition to Barnes, and the occasional unscheduled fire drills in the wee hours of the morning, Barnes residents received compen- sation in their fourth consecutive victory in the Homecoming decorations contest, as well as the various seasonal parties climaxed by the 6Tyoing- away Dana? in June. Along,r with the various components of entertain- ment scheduled by the dormitory, students have also spent many pleasurable hours watching the television sets of two residents. A tropical fish collection and a human bone collection have also had their due attentien throughout the year. Although many an eyebrow was raised at the suggestion of t$tilrt'l,tx'.-3i11g,9 for dinner, this has been conformed to dutifully with the reward of being.r able to wear Bermuda shorts to meals during.r the Springtime. Perhaps one Of the most appreciated additions of the year was the plate of butter placed 011 each table duringr the evening.r meal. Like other resident halls on campus, Barnes is , - governed by 1-. council composed of Representatixes ma; A1. V , elected from all precincts in the dormitory. Mrs. Ella Mrlhszee, Imusemotlwr.

An example 01' this action OC- Troasurer Gerald Host curred during.r the Christmas season When loud- speakers carried carols and Christmas music to the entire campus7 bringing.r spirit and feeling; of the joy 01' the season to all. One of the highlights of the year was President Anspachis annual fireside chat, given in the com- fortable and attractive lounge. The second-semester freshmen will well remem- ber the 'arm welcome they received as Robinson sponsored a lilid-year mixer for newcomers. The social calendar also included seasonal dances, mix- ers, and skits sponsored by the Robinson residents. Robinson led the rest of the residence halls in providing something: new for the students t . . din- er music through the entire supper hour. This i11- novation made standing: in line almost bearable for many! The somewhat crowded conditions of the resi- dent rooms was easily remedied through additional facilities to uccmnmodate the increased enrollment this year.
