The Student Union Building iirst opened its doors to the returning students of the fall semester in 1937. Contests were held to pick a name that would be short, suggestive, and popular for this center of student activities. Hundreds of names were submitted, but the one which stuck was the SUB. Since that time the SUB has become synonymous with campus activities. The building houses the Mirage and Lobo oflices, a lounge, a meeting room, the Associated Students' ofiice, the Student Council room, a barber shop, bookstore, fountain, ball- room, and playroom. The patio of the SUB borders Z1 fountain and Hnds during the winter snows, and lazy days of spring. t Union is for the students. In 1942 services will become truly cooperative. today, the SUB will be the envy of other this district.

THE ULIMATE Crisp nights and golden-sunny days mark the Fall weather. YVinter brings occasional snow to the campus, but it remains mainly Warm by day, cold and dry and crystal clear by night. The Spring is a season of occasional rains, of the desert-a colorful patchwork of flowers for a few weeks-of warm evenings in which to sing under the bright western stars. Sum- mer brings flashing rainbows-short showers chasing each other over the broad mesa- polychrome sunsets flaming in the west over the looming bulk of Mt. Taylor and over the Five black volcanic cones that stand on the skyline just across the river.
