Sports and Speeches But, to counterfeit a phrase, all mental play and no work-out would make Jack, or any student for that matter, a dull one. You can get the work-out at the new, huge Karges gym. The building isn’t quite large enough to contain Ramer Field, so we probably will continue to play our football games outside for a while yet. But it is large enough to hold three full-sized basketball courts (with spectator space), exercise rooms, an Olympic-sized swimming pool (with spectator space) and showers, lockers, coaches offices, etc., etc., etc. If you favor individual sports, in addition to swimming there are always wrestling and volleyball and badminton and, work-out of all work-outs, handball. The main gym also proves useful as an auditorium for those large gatherings (such as the Faculty Frolics we had this year), commencement, and for some of the outstanding personalities who visit the campus. The group shown at the right is listening to Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. R. A. Karges Physical Education and Recreation Center

Prucha Hall SjSggjiQSfo'.' PPyW A Spot for Study, We suppose that it s just “normal” to think of college learning in connection with classrooms and libraries. But education takes place in other ways, too. According to the latest psychological theories it’s impossible not to learn: we do, it seems, learn something new every day. Some of the more comfortable teaming places on campus are the student residence halls. For the men there are Stratton and Prucha Halls; for the women Hathom Hall and Cottage. For the evergrowing number of married students, there are the College Apartments. In the near future there’ll be a new wing for Hathom, and later, a new men’s dorm, making housing for even more students.
