CAMPUS DARKROOM OPENS Oh, I know this stirring title compels you readers to let out with a rousing cry of joy, but if you can contain your ecstacy for a moment, I'll elaborate. No, the dark room is not the long awaited Behrend Night Club so you can cancel your Saturday night reser vations, (unless you hold a key). The faculty had considered the alternative of a Night Club but decided, after much deliberation, that there was a greater need for developing photographs. So, dear reader, let us have no more de featist talk about the interest in student welfare that our fair ad ministration has.
