THURSDAY. APRIL 24. 1958
Becomes Rec Room
By BARBARA GREENWALD
Following in the footsteps of the HUB, TUB and PUB,
the NUB has been established on campus.
The recipe is simple: Take the deserted West Nittany
dining hall, add ingenuity and work, and the result is the
Nittany Union Building. •
The recreational area, named by Alan Gross, freshman in
DOC from,Philadelphia. is entire
ly student-operated and has a
$5OOO yearly budget. Four stu
dents are in charge of the office,
which supplies game equipment,
magazines and old bluebooks:
The NUB is equipped with two
pool tables, chess, checkers, cards,l
six ping pong -tables and the
popular Kikit game. One corner
is devoted to a TV set, with a
section of" new chairs. The latter
was donated by George L. Dono
van, acting coordinator of stu
dent activities.
A row of vending machines is
built into one wall, offering
candy, soft drinks, cigarettes,:hot
sandwiches, milk, pastries and the
specialties-Hoagies and subma
rine sandwiches.
Since the opening of the NUB
on March 10, records show that
approximately 20, per cent of the
Nittany men regularly take ad-,
vantage of the recreational facili-1
ties. Although the daily attend
ance is about 50, the number in
creases greatly on weekends. -
The NUB is ,open from 1 p.m.
to midnight on weekdays and un
til 1:30 a.m. on weekends: -

Six Yugoslays

eludes meetings on campus and
observation of the vocational edu
cation program in Bellefonte

New York City, as well as State
College. It is sponsored through

ministration._
To State--
(Continued from page four)
reality here. Is this preparation
for the coarseness of the out
side world?
I sincerely hope the Univer
sity will start dealing with stu
dents on an adult level. Praise
them, damn them, but don't
protect them unnecessarily and
don't baby them.
My other set of memories is
one of administrators who toil
long and hard "for a better
Penn State." They have good
intentions—though their meth
ods at times are misdirected—
are sincere, warm, friendly
people, possessing an earthi
ness that is refreshing.
And the students, who are
wonderfully friendly, good
natured, funny, always trying
though not always , succeeding.
They're students who are as
nice a bunch of friends—pew.
ple—as you'd want to meet.
They've given me the nicest
of memories - to reminisce upon.
This is my final column. It's
been fun. I've tried to say
everything (as the title im
plies) with one desire: to see
the school responsible for the
happiest four years of my - life
grow progessively greater.
Thanks State, with loVe.
