A PLACE IN SHAKER The most obvious dimensions of shaker are the length, width, and height of the buildings we lived in for seven hours a day. Seven hours in actual classes, more hours in play rehearsals, in sports practice, or in just idling about the halls waiting for someone. Most of our teen-age joys and sorrows took place within those gaunt brick walls shielded with ivy. At first thought it might seem as though the building ' s primary action was restraint: there were more Shakerites this year than ever before, but the halls stubbornly refused to become any wider. Everyone who ever tried to go against the crowd in the main hall commented on the vicious perversity of the architect who made everything three feet too narrow. Despite the crush, most Shakerites managed to find a special place to go with their friends during their free moments. Almost everyone at one time or another rambled down to the Social Room to lounge in the big chairs and talk about nothing in par- ticular, or to play cards, or to listen to records. When the weather was fair, some went out to the stadium to loaf in the sun and watch the gym classes. Those seniors who were fortunate enough to know the stu- dent treasurers found the Student Activity Office a convenient place to meet and talk. Many others simply used a friend ' s homeroom or the hall in front of the small auditorium as a meeting place. At any rate, for nearly every Shakerite there was some part of Shaker that was more special than any other part.
