Library - Memorial Court Our library-classroom game began Moy, 1950 and ended victorious in April, 1951. Mr. Howard C. Kable, architectural coach, speed- ed the finish ot a cost of S360,000.00 on the field back and slightly to the west of Memo- rial Court. The team tackled the low ceilings opening the line for radiant heat and incan- descent lighting. Tactic was modular design planned so that the first and second goal lines will be library territory. At the present, the touch- downs are: extra space for library facilities including several multipurpose rooms, a roomy reading room, display and bulletin board facilities, and an instructional aids area. Field goals were made which added urgently needed classrooms and more instruc- tors' offices. Memorial Court field is located north and slightly east of Churchill Hall on the Campus. The first team consists of the Health Service room lwith the nursing coach in chargei, classrooms, instructors' offices, and the main gymnasium room. The second team, in the basement, is made up of the recreation room, several equipment rooms, instructor's offices and rest rooms. Plans are under way for a new building to be located on the other side of Siskiyou Boulevard.
