It is our understanding that the Hall is open to the college stud ents for such use if the women support and promote the project. Our groups are willing to take the responsibility and offer all the support that we can, but we feel that because of our technical limitations we must ask the aid of the All-College Cabinet Dry Dock committee. We are joining that group as an advisory com mittee to aid in achieving the best ooo'pei*ation possible between students- and administration’s interests. We appreciate your plans. for the future in attempting to solve the recreation problems here at the College, .'but believe that un til such a program is inaugurated that we-must answer the present student needs with all-the pos- Trustees Elect Appoint Glenn Ritenour To Retire Dr. Herbert R.
