On the lower floor is the dining hall where campus residents eat. Pictured below is Sut- ton Hall where about 150 male students are at home.

It also houses practice and ensemble rooms as well as having studios for private instruction and wind and string instrument studios. The music hall isnit open to just music majors but to all personnel of the college, as well as others wishing musical instruction. The first unit of the building was opened late in 1948. The picture ftopj was snapped in the middle of Che- ney's beautiful winter. The girls' doimitory can be seen in the right background. Directly below the music building is the Eastern Washington College field house, which recently experienced a face lifting of brick shake. The huge structure contains several gymnasiums and an indoor track arena. A size- able swimming pool with plenty of dressing rooms is located at the far end of the building. Several classrooms are provided for instruction in physical education. Many athletic events were held here during the yeaar. All the home basketball games were played in the big gymnasium. Eastern and the field house also played hosts to the district B playoffs for the high school basketball players. Boys' and girls intramurals took place in the field house, when the weather didn't permit participation out- side. Swimming meets, high school play days, and general recreation for the college were enjoyed here. Offices for members of the physical education department are housed in the field house. 4 lr '::...5. l . I , ' I z HIM .2g mm L ' 1+ . - i! ' Q all 1 5 ' icuii:-U'

v-., living And learning M Showalter Hall as seen from the famous Eastern pillars. The long walk up to the entrance is known as Hello Walk and is an Eastern tradition in itself. Everyone always says hello and gives each other a welcome smile on this walk. The administration building contains the adminis- trative offices, classrooms, natural and applied science laboratories, the college auditorium, and the psycho- logical clinic. Named for a former president of Eastern VVash- ington College of Education, Noah David Showalter, it was rebuilt after a fire destroyed the first adminis- tration building. It is the heart of the campus and very close to the students as well as to the instructors, administrators, and alumni. 1 SI al' Li' Senior Hall, snapped in the middle of the winter snows, houses the East- ern girls not living in the new dormi- tory. Located across the lovely lawns of Showalter, it is easily accessible for the girls who have classes in the administration building. One of the traditions the hall is noted for is their all campus coffee hour held every Monday. Once a year the girls sponsor a tolo in their living room. Mrs. Newton is the housemother for the girls. She had two student assistants this year, Rowena Riggle and Vi Medak. Named after another former president of the college is Hargreaves Library. This beautiful two-story structure is in mod- ern Roman style terra cotta and brick with tile roof. The building is air condi- tioned with recirculating air, and is pro- vided with a cooling system for summer use. Besides the big wall to wall reading room, thc library has shelves of books for all use, as well as a photograph lab- oratory in the basement. Classrooms are located on the first floor.
