Wlry does it always rain when you want to go to the library when the one thing you don't want it to do is rain when you want to go to the libraryg and why is the library so far away when the one thing you don't want is the library so far awayg and why aren't there coat hangers in the library when the one thing that you want are coat hangers in the li- braryg and why is the book never there when you go to the library when the one thing you want is for the book to be there when you go to the library.

Hidden behind doors and beyond aging walls in the Student Union are features seldom encountered by the average Tech student. Things like the loft just off the stage, the multi-leveled attic and the tightly winding spiral staircases in the bell towers. But outside the west entrance of the Student Union lies a large imposing red rock. Not much is known of the past history of this rock. No one even seems to know how it got there. Further, no one seems to care very much. And even though the rock is large, few of those who pass by it ever pay any attention to it, even when some misguided Techawk painted it blue. There are other rocks on campus although to speak respectfully of them would not be to call them rocks but memorials in stone. More correctly they are not rocks but carefully cut and shaped pieces of rock fashioned into objects with suitable inscriptions which infer their use as a commemo- ration. One of these evidently has been gracing the campus for a considerable number of years since it is adequately weathered and bears large Arabic nu- merals proclaiming l9 on one side and 09 on the other. This is in the form of a bench about eighteen inches high and about long enough to serve as a love seat. Now resting alongside the sidewalk- driveway in front of Alumni Memorial Hall almost directly across from the west entrance, this bench is one of the few ornaments of the campus which also is functional. At the present time only three such carvings of stone exist and they are all confined to the block in which the Chem, Met-Chem, and Alumni Hall are situated. Qof course this excludes the two memorial benches just outside the entrance to Carman Hall which were dedicated by a sorority from Lewis.j Presiding in front of the Met-Chem Building is a relatively new Qcompared to 19095 clean cut stone bench which is accompanied by a bronze plaque set in concrete indicating that this bench is in mem- ory of Gordon Erickson. Now who, you may ask, is this Erickson guy? WV'ell, son, it's like this, he was the guy that wrote IIT's up and coming Alma Mater, and for this and other things they created this memorial to him with the bronze plaque set in concrete so that it would be hard to swipe.
