Page 7'zc'fl'ur STUDENT Upper' Left: Mike l'Cigar DeFeo, passed out El Ropos on elec- tion day and took one hour and a hal fto vote. lt seem- ed that he was wrestling with the problem of whether to vote for himself or not. VVith him is Rex Morgan, who ran on the Vo-camp ticket with Mike. Morgan is Business aMnager of the Unews and it seems that the staff thinks he likes VVatkins' Drug Store better than work. Upper Right: john McNeely, freshman Bentonian, who has been at the top of a very interesting triangle for some time. Second Row: Gene Davis, joe Taylor and Wfhitney Sunderland, Geology Majors, who are, believe it or not, relaxing between strenuous classes. Third Row: An interior of an early morning lab, where young science students get crooked backs from looking through microscopes at phloem cells and plastids. Fourth Row: Bob Doctor is happy because he doesn't own the car by which the distinguished gentleman is standing. The car belongs to Ed Lewis. The story behind this picture is one of the best of the year. This policeman found seven Ford V-Ss on the wrong side of the street, facing the wrong way and parked by no-parking signs. He was about to plaster them with tickets when he learned that they all belonged to a group of detectives who were taking a course at the U. F WO Qwl if .

meager fund of tradition is the bell hanging in the Liberal Arts tower. The big, sweet-toned bell, which rings the hours, is a relic from an old Miss- ouri River tug. Classes were considerably discom- posed by the old bell's erratic habits during its first weeks with us, but it now seems to be well under the control of an automatic system, and has been sounding out with admirable accuracy. The large and modernly equipped cafeteria on the first floor. west wing, was enthusiastically wel- comed by the student body. Filling a long descried need for a campus jelly joint, the cafeteria is never empty of students lingering over the eternal cig- arette and coke. Venetian blinds and well-placed tables help to make loafing agreeable, and there is still hope that more ashtrays and a nickelodeon will find a home there soon. Next year the Liberal Arts building will no long- er be the new buildingf' Already it is so much a part of the campus that it is hard to recall the time when the ground it occupies was tall grass and quail nests. Landscaping and connecting walks integrate it with the older buildingsg well-planned architecture make harmonious relationships. The Liberal Arts building completes the first quadrangle of the campus. But in rounding out the educational facilities of the University and giving new opportunities for recreational companionship, it has completed even more importantly, we feel, a quadrangle of student life. -Jllary Harbord I 1
