U' he HE last few hours before college stu- dents climb into bed are often the happiest hours of the day. During this period boys and girls get together. They may bring books with them and study' together at the Library or at the l'nion. But it's being to- gether-not studying that imakes the eve- ning pleasant.

Ur, if you Want to talk, the French lounge provides a comfort- able and secluded place for important con- 20 versation. lf, on the other hand, you want to see and be seen, the Sunroom is ideal. There you can drink a coke or eohfee and see hun- dreds of coedsfs-and talk to them. Even for college professors and married students these hours of the evening are often the most pleasant and relaxing. Dads who have been busy with classes all day finally get a chance to play with their young children and help put them to bed, and they get a chance to tell the wives of the hard test coming up, the high grades they expect. And the professors -g well, they get away from students.
