The Armory has undergone quite a sub- stantial change in use since the condemnation of the Egleston building. It used to be that the only time that the Armory was used for band, PE, and assem- blies. Since then it was used almost constantly. Study hall and the lunchroom were in the day room. The old concession stand became the high school kitchen. At noon and before school, the ping-pong tables were in constant use. Volley-ball games were played every noon on the gym floor. Many days there were also basketball games going on. Band, PE, and assemblies were still held in the Armory in addition to its new services. The fact that the students did have a place to gather kept school spirit alive at CHS. 6

Cooperation between faculty, administra- tion, and students made the awesome task of moving a school much easier. During the three days of unex- pected vacation, the faculty and charitable students moved all the furniture out of the east part of the Egleston Building. Later they had to move much of it again as the consultants decided that only three rooms were safe for occupation. Lockers, desks, tables, books, shop equipment, and many other things that make a school had to be packed up and carried to trucks, to be hauled to the new classroom sights. The teachers spent all three full days at the school. Many student council members and wrestlers also pitched in with the dirty work. The administration was kept busy arranging for places to move the supplies and generally organizing the whole affair. 5
