-How high are the flag poles
in front of Old Main, ,what
was the class gift of 14361, how
many bridges are there on
campus? These are typical
questions asked at the Penn
State Room which is the re
pository for historical data on
the University campus.
Located on the fourth floor of
the Pattee Library, the archives
receives an average of five ques
tions each day, Mrs. Mary L.
Mairs, curator, estimates.
Some of them, such as those
above, are easy to answer be
cause they have, been asked
each year for many years by
fraternity pledges fulfilling
pledges duties, Mrs. Mairs said.
(The answers to the above ques
tions are 100 feet, President
Evan Pugh's portrait, and two,
respectively.)
The archives are sought out by
people with many different in
terests. A grad student writing his
thesis on Evan Pugh, a coed writ
ing a term paper on Penn State
traditions and the Department of
Housing seeking names for new
buildings all use the archives.
Some of the odd hits of infor
mation availphle in the Penn
State Room are amazing, for ex-

ample, there are' 30. miles of
thread and 4000 yards of material
in the drapes in the newer West
Halls dormitories; the first Beaver

Laboratory; and- the quotation on
the sundial in front of Old Main
is "Grow Old Along With Me"
f;om a pOem by Robert Browning.
There are limits, though, to
the archives' store of knowl
edge. When a student recently
asked how many window panes
are in the Pattee Library, the
staff had to say they didri't
know.
