3115 Being new on the list of Garland real-estate purchases, 315 Com- monwealth Avenue made its new and grand appearance, along with its new house advisor Mrs. Messer, this past September. We soon discovered that we were the only freshman dormitory and living up to the standards we set for ourselves, we discovered that after mid- semester exams first term no one was on academic probation. We were one of only two houses with such a record. This was quite an achieve- ment, considering the fact that we spent the first two months of school with neither desks nor chairs. Our Sunday night suppers started off with a big bang, with a huge influx of attractive males. Conditions have remained this way since. We have had our share of blind dates, snowball fights, Saturday morn- ing breakfasts, and a great variety of maids - until our glorious Maybell arrived. Upon the arrival of spring, you will see a mass exodus of 315 girls parading to class in their newly-acquired dungaree skirts.
