he ' T residenfs S ' t TUDENTS and faculty returning to Newcomb at the open- ing of the session found the departments housed in Dixon Hall in full operation in their nev home. The Library Wing not only is an attractive place for readers and stu- dents, but offers every facility for the comfort and con- venience of the student. The School of Music has, for the first time, quarters of its own designed for the needs of th ' s department. The new auditorium in Dixon Mall has proved a convenient gathering place not only for concerts and lectures of Newcomb, but for campus night programs and other student activities. The administration is working on plans for the beautification of the Newcomb campus and for a better plan of roadways and wa ' ks on that campus, with reference not only to the present needs, but to the future development of the college plant. The framework of the new Medical Clinic Building is approaching completion and indicates that this will be one of the most impressive and commodious buildings of the whole Tulane group. A committee of the faculty and Board of Administrators is now selecting equipment for this building which will make it beyond question one of the out- standing clinic buildings of the country. While athletics do not constitute the chief aim of the Unvers ' ty, t gives great pleasure to all of those interested in Tulane to know that our football team achieved the distinction of being declared champions of the Southern Conference. It is also gratifying to note that the Southern Conference has again placed the annual tennis tournament at Tulane University, The thing we most hope for is that some man with a big heart and a big purse will give a modern gymnasium for the benefit of the health and welfare of the hundreds of young men now attending the Uni ' versity.
