Now it is like a Girls' Rest Room or Reading Room. although there is no sign, NO MEN ALLOVVED, as might be expected. The Dean of Mens room was noteworthy as a gath- ering place for mysterious class meetings. If you have never been a Normalite. you perhaps wonder why such meetings are not held in the chapel hall to accom- modate the large number who. you would suppose, would attend. Dear reader, it grieves us sorely to ex- plain. but the number who attend these 'sessions is so small and so select that there has been some dis- cussion of using tickets for admittanceg that would SC:'cnIt'cn

Here at var- ious times, not only a psy- chologist might have made an interesting study of the gregarious instinct or that of attention-getting, but al-I so the commercial student was known that it would be a physical impossibility for all who desired to meet be- tween classes to talk at one time, it was thought best to assign certain corners for that purpose. Some think that, as the school is grow- ing and that the time for loahng seems to be increas- ing. the authorities or O. D's. will decide that outside corners of the buildings will be more practicable. This would eliminate such accidents as that which caved in the wall at the Kappa cornerg there would be less need for re-cleaning this corner and the wall north to the Mu Zeta park- ing place. The citizens of Terrible Hut, as they pass the buildings. would be so impressed with the great activity going on in rain or snow around the various corners of the buildings that they would appreciate the Normalwg if the class room windows were low- -gill 533. f-+ EAUQ 5.3905 .. 5'-P s-J,-QW'-P mrfgmi' assi fifmgqo w.

The most popular and un-policed rendezvous was the basement hall, particu- larly near the iceless box in front of the passage lead- ing to that mysterious place, the MENS GYM. If A said box could speak, what . L1 rx 01:44 . Q , - cs et 'mf .no 1 an oracle it would bel The history of why this place is so popular is lost in obscur- ity. Perhaps the proximity to the Advance and Sycamore offices, also popular to the highest classmen, may give the clue, but it is more probable that this became a loahng place before the law enforcement committee incorporated certain over-conscientious professors and professoresses who herded us out of the upper halls, and so the icebox region afforded us a comparatively safe place to hear the much needed gossip. Another theory is that the summer students particularly venerated this region because the spigot there furnished the only drinkable water in the building. Naturally, with several dozen pupils waiting their turns at this fountain. others gathered to see what the evident excitement wasg therefore, they have been congregating ever since. NVe will be grateful forevermore to the tax payers of lndiana for giving us this one precious spigot as an excuse as well as a necessity! What matter if the bowl contained several wads of well-chewed gum within its spotted depths? There was always a gallant he-male to turn the water on for us, and we could talk and moisten our parched mouths without fear of being asked to move on.
