Included in the residence hall for men were the college cafeteria and kitchen where wholesome, appetizing, reasonably-priced food was prepared and served daily by Miss Lawson, and where hungry students were prone to gather and drool. Clubs frequently met in the beautifully designed faculty din- ing room for impressive and long-remem- bered initiation services. Green Terrace assumed a new role this past year, by playing host to veteran fam- ilies awaiting completion of the housing units. It continued to serve as Faculty Men's Club House, and was the scene of many a faculty party. Below: Even though running a Collogo Caiotorio was a big job, Miss Beulah Lawson seemed happy about it all. Page 15

Scono of the yoar's college dancos, swimming meets, and basketball tournoys, was the College Gym. Health and recreation being an indispens- able item on any curriculum program, the college gym was indeed a popular place. It provided for the teams classrooms and dressing rooms, and an excellent basketball floor that this year could not begin to ac- comodate all the enthusiastic fans who crowded in to watch. The swimming pool was open daily for any student who cared to try his waterwings; the ping-pong tables were by appointment only. The gym floor on Friday evenings was transformed into a gaily decorated dance floor for the after-game dances sponsored and promoted by the Student Council. A Kickapoo Joy Juice stand was set up in one far corner for the Sadie Hawkins dance, and a goal-post platform erected for the crowning of the Homecoming Sweetheart. The nightly practices of Norris and his Haring orchestra were often held in the gym, and its facilities used in the Trivalley high school meet of the Women's Athletic Asso- ciation. Wesleyan Falls flowed and rippled down one side at the homecoming football game, and shouts of merriment were heard as an unusual council trundled in on Kan- geroo Court day. Highly-competitive and exciting intra-mural games were also played upon its floor, and all recreational fa- cilities were in constant use the year out.

Headquarters of your pals, the place to go for a good time, was the Kampus Kave. Besides furnishing super-deluxe malts at pre-war low prices, the juke box was all for free. Anybody and everybody with an extra half hour made it their business to be at the Kave. The hand- painted murals, which depicted every phase of college life, served to cheer up even the most depressed eager-beaver. The serve-yourself booths were the ideal spot for your crowd to hash over the latest, even if it meant eight to a booth! Fun was king at the Kampus Kave. Studont teacher Delphina Shoup .-.miles at a topeeiul the ft. O. Thomas training school. of small fry in A. O. Thomas School served you well as a training ground for the future. Ex- perience, as offered in A. O. Thomas, was of invaluable aid to potential teachers. Able supervisors and willing tiny tots brought into play all the skill and knowl- edge you possessed. Student teachers at A. O. Thomas received not only good ex- perience, but many a suppressed smile over the antics of a citizen of tomorrow. Though wo watched tho space for spec- ials, we accepted a pre-war pricod malt from Mr . Roso Wardrop. director of tho Kampus Kave. Page 16
