x5 1 l ff-1, Turning around in a clockwise direction in the same position, the visitor's glance takes in Agricultural Hall, Smith Hall, a portion of the Home Economics Building, and University Hall, one of the oldest buildings on the campus. Offices of head of the School of Agriculture and most of that school's departments are housed in Ag Hall. However, some classes and laboratory work are conducted in the building. Smith Hall, home of the dairy department, contains the Purdue Creamery, laboratories, classrooms and offices. On the southwest tip of the campus stands the Home Economics Building, completed in l923. In it are special laboratories including a model cafeteria managed by students in home economics. University Hall, venerable home of the English Department and the division of speech, stands squar-ely on the axis of the oval. Its steps are worn and hollowed from countless student footsteps.

After circling through the campus and heading again toward State Street, the visitor looks back and sees the rear view of the brick judging Pavilion where judging classes are con- ducted by the Animal Husbandry Department. Adjacent barns house livestock used in these classes. The barn in the foreground contains horses and is the place where draft horses ar-e bred. Maternity beef cows and calves, the best of which are taken to the International Live- stock Show in Chicago each year, are kept in the barn showing in the background. - W., rx V 1- .X 'il Q- ., - :P-S ,:'Q' hu 1' ,X J ll ls xii! ik' xx., g r - . , I, I-w,,,,,.
