Men invade Coeds Mark "Did you ever see so many men upstairs in your life?" cried one of the girls in McAllister Hall on Saturday as men began to invade the place. We had the opportunity to browse around and not only get the reaction of many of the girls but also of the fellows. At the stroke of 2 p.m. the in vasion began. One of the first young gentlemen, who climbed the steps; very dramatically clenched his fists like a champ. But as he proceeded, he changed his tone-muttering, - W6w, this is embarrassing!" An elderly gent' came next, commenting, "This isn't forbid den ground today, so I guess I can browse around." He had us worried for a while but upon descending the stairs, he very proudly reported that. "She had it cleaned better than I thought she would—even better than the one at home!" Air Force Inspects One of the many Air Force men who were inspecting this lovely habitat walked about slyly, stat ing, "I haven't been thrown out yet—ha, , ha—so far, so good." When we asked a friendly fel low from the campus how he felt being in a women's dormitory for the first time, he didn't even hesi tate in saying, "Right at home." However, he tacked on the state merit, "There's still a nicer living unit, Thompson Hall, but of course, I'm a little prejudiced."

One of the girls shouted, "Enjoy it while you may, it's almost over!" Good Opportunity One of the latecomers walked up the steps with a smile from ear to ear as all he could say was "What an .opportunity, and to think I only have five minutes to look the place over." We felt sorry for him because of his excessive enthusiasm. All the girls breathed a sigh of relief as they were once again given their privacy at 3 p.m., and they could jabber about all the comments they had heard and the reactions of the many people who had their first chance to view a women's dormitory.
