Lots of FP students and faculty members found in convenient to do their shopping at the Mall. HERE were new sights and changes around the FP campus and in the Tacoma area during 1966. One novel change at FP wasthe use of 'glive bandsn at after-game dances. Better attendance and enjoyment by the students resulted. Mr. Walter was a little more comfortable in his new building near the tennis courts that was used as his pri- vate office and warehouse for movies and equipment. The new freeway chopped up acres of ground around Tacoma as well as the old football field. It added con- venience and noise as the workmen bulldozed during school hours. Shoppers found a new paradise at the spectacular Tacoma Mall. Wfith Tacomais rainy weather, the Mall was a pleasure to shop at during the winter and holiday season. Thousands of dollars were spent on Christmas decorations for the Mall, but the expenditure delighted the shoppers. No matter where we looked, it was action- and progress.
