Miss Cornelia Otis Skinner, speaking for the undergraduates of a same sentiment less less vehemently: "We decade ago, expressed the hoped it would be more theatre, architecture." Originally the plan was to erect three separate buildings, an audi- torium, practice and class rooms for the music department, and recreational facilities for the students. Up to that time, Miss Park told of Taylor had been hollowed out and used for assemblies; Mr. Willoughby and Mr. Wyndham and the back of Miss put together in the gym us, commencements and Alwyne used to have Ely's the center their offices in house; and a dozen wobbly tables served as a stage, while the audience sat around the track and dangled their feet over the edge. The college authorities, even after they realized that these projects could be combined under one roof, continued to think of the building to is still more them as three separate units, and as a result or less divided into three sections.

The shelves have since been fastened Among more slides crashed securely. the blessings of the department are a dark room equipped with a special camera to make new slides, and an electric press for dry- mounting pictures and thus insuring them from curling in the future. More important, the big lecture room was designed by Mr. Sloane and Mr. Carpenter. As each part flows structurally into another, the room as a whole is a fine example of practical and aesthetic unity. All in all, the new wing might be considered an art major's dream.
