Tyler Hall THE NEYVEST BUILDING on the campus, Tyler Hall, was dedicated in 1930. Tyler Hall will accomodate fifty-five boys and a matron and house man in surroundings more ideal than in any other dormitory in the state. It is heated with a two-pipe steam heating system and on each floor there is a. central bath and toilet room with an additional shower room in the basement. There is also a locker room and adequate laundrying facilities. This spring a new washing machine was added to other equipment and the school began to do all its own laundry, including one sheet and one pillow case for each member of the student body. For the past two summers students and faculty have been continually working on the lawn about Tyler Hall, plant- ing trees and shrubbery, making walks and caring for the lawn. This spring a walk was laid to Prescott Commons. 'W T' ' .azsrahaifaja '5 '7Nuin ff'-7+ Student's Room Bowling Alley Page Twenty-Seven

Billiard Room Page Twenty-Six Matron's Room Kenney Hall THE FIRST PERMANENT dormitory for boys was Kenney Hall. It was begun in 1917 but was not ready for use until 1921. Mr. Asa W. Kenney of Lakewood, New Jersey, contributed the largest sum for this building. In accord- ance with his wish, a part of the building was set aside as at Y.M.C.A. unit. In the basement is a reception room where many good times are enjoyed by the young people. The room contains a large stone fireplace, a bowling alley and two pool tables-recreation suggestions for leisure hours. The reading room on the first floor affords oppor- tunity for students to spend a few hours each evening reading the daily papers and late magazines. This year there was added to the dormitory library, a complete set of encyclopedias. The Polytechnic hospital is also located on the first floor of this dormitory. l d

The management of the farm takes pride in raising pure-bred hogs and cattle. The farm is used as an experimental station for raising certified seeds. The arrangement of the buildings and the evident care Which is taken in keeping the grounds clean and orderly give the farm a very pleasing appearance.
