THE DAILY COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
New Moniker
For Ancient
Women'sßidg.
The current name-changing-of
campus-landmarks craze, appar
ently aimed at the student who
prides himself on his thorough
knowledge of University build
'ings, will hit Woman's Building
when it becomes the Graduate
Residence Hall next semester.
The old -tall with the new narce
will be used to house unmarried
graduate students beginning with
the fall semester, and will be the
University's first experiment in
community living.
A semblance of the long-la
mented ratio will be maintained
in the new graduate building,
with 45 unmarried men in the
east wing of the hall and 34 un
married women in the west wing.
Each of the two wings will have
separate entrances and lounge fa
cilities, with a central entrance
and lounge to be used by all the
occupants.
Woman's Building was the first
residence hall at the University,
although students had lived in
Old Main before the hall was
built. The building, originally
called the Ladies' Cottage, was
first used in 1889, and a new wing
was added in 1909.
After the establishment of
Home Economics as a department
in 1907, work in that field was
conducted in the basement of Wo
man's Building. A part of the
Psychology Clinic is presently
housed in the basement.
The University catalogue of
1889-90 said that young women
"not living at their own homes
or at the homes of family friends
reside in a cottage, which has just
been erected for their use. This
cottage furnishes a most attrac
tive and refined home with kind
ly and healthful suroundings, un
der the direction of a competent
Lady Principal."
Drama Review--
(Continued from page one)
he becomes capable of the fiercest
passions. This is a difficult switch,
hut effectively handled by San
toro.
It was with extreme pleasure
that we watched Jack Timmis in
the role of Victor.
We were embarrassed for him
in "My Three Angels"; displeased
with him in "Blood Wedding";
mildly impressed with his job in
"Jim Dandy": and struck with
admiration at his acting in "Car
nival of Thieves."
This record of decided improve
ments culminated in a skillful
performance Friday night.
Victor is a self-adjudged "man
of the world," on the exterior,
and a self-fancied lover, the bru
tal kind. But deep inside he is
capable of love, and does find a
pitiable love in Mordeen—pitiable
because of the desperate situation
it places him in.
J. P. Froelich's lighting effects
—especially in the first act—lent
an extra touch to the drama, a
much-welcomed one.
Mark Wallace's directing was
equal to Steinbeck's demands. A
play so frank and so devoid of
"inner meaning" as this one is,
eives Wallace a chance to exploit
its purely dramatic and charac
terization aspects.
De Kooning's Art
Exhibited in HUB
The work of Willem de Koon
ing, contemporary artist, is in
cluded in the collection of more
than 30 paintings assembled for
the new Inland Steel Building re
cently completed in Chicago.
De Kooning is represented with
a large canvas, "Time of the
Fire," in the exhibition of con
temporary art that will continue
through Feb. 24 in the gallery of
the Hetzel Union Building.
Cold Spell Devours
University's Steam
The University has s-s-s-steam heat, but it takes about
160,000 pounds of steam an hour to keep students warm in
what has been termed the coldest winter in 50 years.
"Today was the worst day we've had in the last two
weeks," T. Boyd Way, foreman of the University power
plant, said yesterday. !
This opinion no doubt was
shared by students, who travel
led across campus swathed in
scarves, ear muffs, stocking hats
and even one large fur hand
muff.
To create the heat they "had to
shovel more coal in the boilers"
to the tune of about 180 tons
yesterday.
On an average day, such as Jan.
28 only 135 tons of coal was need
ed to produce 110 pounds of steam
an hour.
Coal is fed into five coal boil
ers manned by a 4000 kilowatt
turbine that makes the steam
which travels through a tunnel
system •to heat residence halls
and other buildings. Then it comes
back as water and is reused. It
takes about a pound of water to
make a pound of steam.
"We forsee no trouble any
where," said Way. - In fact.
most buildings on campus are
overheated."
To keep radiators clicking 24
hours a day in the new women's
halls and Boucke building, an oil
boiler and a water economizer
which preheats water to 330 de
grees as compared to only 220
degrees last year have been added
to the power plant.
New Eng Loan
Fund Started
A loan fund to help upperclass
men in mechanical engineering
has been established with a be
quest of nearly $300,000 received
from the estate of Charlotte
Hanes Harding of Buffalo, N.Y.
The fund was established by
Mrs. Harding in memory of her
husband, the late Louis A. Hard
ing, former head of the Depart
ment of Mechanical Engineering
at the University.
Harding later served as corn
missioner of public works for Buf
falo, N.Y., and became one of
the leading authorities in the field
of power plants, heating, ventila
tion and refrigeration.
The loan fund will be available
to upperclassmen who were in
the upper ten per cent of their
class during their freshman year,
who are of high character and
who need financial help to enable
them to continue their college
work.
Ed Prof Will Conduct
Math Class at Geneseo
Dr. Clyde G. Coyle, associate
professor of education, will con
duct a 1-week workshop at the
Geneseo State Teachers College,
Geneseo, N.Y.. on the teaching of
elementary school mathematics.
He will be working with a group
of Latin-American educators as
signed to that college for special
training.
