conjestion following the Notre Dame
football game, the Undergraduate
Student Government and the Asso
ciation of Residence Hall Students
will sponsor a reception in the HUB
main lounge for students, alumni
and fans after the Notre Dame foot
ball game.
Earlier this term, ARHS proposed
opening up either Findlay recreation
room or White Building to house
students who did not want to leave
State College after the game. How
ever, because all University class
room buildings and residence halls
will close at 3 p.m. next Saturday,
USG President Bill Cluck decidecl to
reserve three rooms in the HUB
until 11 p.m.
During the reception, the Alumni
Association will provide doughnuts
and coffee. Cluck said USG has also
invited students from the University
of Notre Dame.
The HUB food service, will also
open for service, he said.
After the reception, movies —per
haps Walt Disney cartoons will be
shown in the HUB Assembly Room.
Also, entertainment will be provided
from 5 to 8 p.m. in the HUB Ball
room.
"This will 'provide a place for
people to mingle and hang around in
case of inclement weather," Cluck
said.

ARHS President Chris Calkins
said although the HUB will not have
a luggage area, each of the resi
dence hall areas will. The luggage
areas open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Nov. 21 will be staffed by employ
ees of Housing and Residential Life.

Black Student Lounge in the War

Calkins said ARHS and USG mem
bers are working on a plan to pro
vide off-campus housing for students
who do not want to leave State
College after the game . ; however, he
said he has not received any confir
mation on the plan.
"The fraternities asked their
members to stay (in town Saturday
night) to help evade the traffic prob
lem," Calkins said.
Although no off-campus housing is
official at this time, Cluck said,
students would have someplace to
stay overnight if an emergency situ
ation should occur.
