Introducing a new element in the col- lege atmosphere was the erection of the veterans housing units. No longer were all the men that roved college corridors eligible bachelors. Many were family men. The first group of housing units con- tained accommodations for twenty fam- ilies. The unit was comprised of four buildings, which contained a variety of apartment sizes to suit the individual needs. The utility, the one-bedroom, the two-bedroom, the three-bedroom apart- ments were filled with homey furnishings, also supplied by the government. Veterans Village wrote a Charter in August of 1946. This Charter provided for the general election of a council to form the policies of the village. The five council members choose one of that group to act as mayor. The head man of the pint-sized community throughout 1946 and 1947 was Elton Toops. Dreams came true for veteran fami- lies like the Honry Miskos upon the completion of the housing units. Elton Toops. shown with wife, Diana, served as mayor of the vil- lage. Whether you liked meatballs or clam chowder, it was bound to be good if it ccme out of Mrs. Elton Toops' veterans village kitchen. Page 17

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
