Atherton. Hall Turns
Into Aviary—Pigeons
Build Nest on. Bureau
The housing shortage has hit
the great outdoors!
Two coeds who live at 418 Ath
erton, returned from :class one
sunny morning to find that their
room was no longer their awn. A
pair of pigeons had moved in via
the, open window and were perch
ed on one of the. bureaus.
' Disturbed by the girls' intrus
ion, the birds stopped their coo
ing and departed for more famil
iar realmS.
Later in the afternoon, how
ever, the girls found that the pig
eons had really moved in lock,
stone, and barrel.
The stone part of this phase
can be taken seriously for on the
bureau were all kinds of things—
twigs, pebbles, straw and a sol
itary worm-eaten potato chip. ,
The pigeons had, decided that
the bureau would be a wonder
ful place for a nest and were
busy for the rest of the afternoon,
flying in and out of the room
with nest-building materials. The
pile of rubbish on the bureau
grew, and the coeds began to get
apprehensions about the whole
Thing.
Lovers of nature, they decided
to leave the pigeons alone. But by
evening they could Stand it no
longer. Their room was taking on
the appearance of a forest and
the sound of .a machine shop.
Finally when their guests had
left for a while, feeling like Simon
Legrees, the girls threw out the
rubbish and shut the window.
The pigeons stood around for
hours on the terrace outside room
.418. At. last, with a pitiful coo
and a flap of their wings, they
departed, deciding the great out
.doors would just have to do this
season.
