The animated faces of spectators in the student section at the War Memorial Field House show mixed emotions while following the action of the ball at a UW home basketball game. The late fall and early winter bring in the basketball season which usually lasts until early March. Following mid- terms, students settle down to serious study, especially if they have not done so before mid-semester. November and December are good months, too, for artistic creations. The wood carvings shown to the right, are only two examples of Wyoming student artistic genius. Displays of oil paintings and water colors are held frequently throughout the school year. The library always has a current display of student or faculty art — some in the lobby, and other items elsewhere throughout the building. This is a familiar sight to most students during both mid-term week and final week. The Williom Robertson Coe Library serves as a haven for most students — a place where they can go for quiet and peoceful study. The library is a comfortable place, well heated, and with excellent lighting facilities, as shown in this photograph.

On with the dance! let joy be unconfin ' d; No sleep till morn, when Youth and Pleasure meet. (Byron, Childe Harold ) The dancing students in these pictures all portray the gracefulness of the dance. They not only show graceful- ness and ease of form, but their movements also prove their physical dexterity. Danc- ing has always been a rather mysterious form of art, virtu- ally unknown and untried by some. But all those who ob- serve a graceful dancer recog- nize her talent and her skill and marvel at her ability to put so much expression and feeling into her motions Members of Orchesis depict various dance positions and movements. The shadowy movements of these dancers seem to be blended perfectly with their shadowy bockground. '
