"airtime-“awe : HIP-EL

Haye you ever been on a guided tour of_a zoo? Well, stick close and we'll fill you in. Eirst off, we are faced with the "cages". One hundred and fifty-two square feet constitutes a _double cage which is supp- osed to accomodate two of the would-be animals. In this space, the university, gape keepers), have con- veiniently placed two beds, ‘each with two drawers; one ibureau for two people, (animals?); two.reading 'lamps; two desks; one med— icine chest; and one sink, or book shelf...you just can't have both.

‘ Unlike the normal "zoo", Memorial Hall has no laun- dry facilities, no kitch- enette facilities, and no mail delivery. The animals of Memorial Hall unlike those of Bernadine, Marion, and Blanchard Halls, have to "get their exercise" by walking over to Marion Hall for laundry, to Main Building for mail, and to the cafeteria for any and all food...that is, unless they'indulge in extra spe- nding at the K—Mart, (of

.ustics. Any toilet being

flushed above you.will

,cause a great surging sound ‘of water through the BLACK

'pipes, (which , by the way,

imatch Quite nicely with

the black walls, and the straight-backed chairs). The gurglings of a toilet aren't too bad when you

are being exposed to the constant gush of water from the showers!!! Then of cou- rse, if you happen to be, watching a show on Chinese torture, the added sound

of the dripping from the leaky pipe, (which has been this way for two years), could add to the effective— ness of the movie. However,

if you plan on getting deep-

ly involved in a complicae ted movie, forget Memorial HallﬂT.V. lounge. No sil- ence is available from the' "Speaking Walls and equip— ment". Since Memorial Hall is‘

the only all male residen- ce on campus, and Bernadine

'Hall the only all—female

‘residence, it would seem that a comparison could

be made between the two. But let's be realistic ab-

The people responsible for Memorial Hall must feel that the '"animals" are getting fat since they, the animals, have to walk to use a phone too since the only phones available are in the Don's. rooms,.and no one in their right mind can expect them to be in twenty-four hours Of the day. ‘ p

- Although all residents« of Memorial Hall have to pay caution fees, it appe- ;ars that there is really

Obviouslyﬂthere‘are‘many things that Memorial Hall does not have, let's take a look at what it does have. Thanks to the generOsity of administration, we see a color T.V. in the main lounge of Memorial Hall.

is unspeakable!!! Take for instance, the washroom fac- ilities...Bernadine Hall accommodates four ladies

to a bathroom, which by the way includes bath and shower, Memorial Hall, on the other hand accommodates twenty-eight men to a wash— room, which includes three showers, three sinks, two urinals, and three toilets. For Pete‘s Sake don't let

those guys all get the "runS"

at the same time!!! One

similarity which may be found is that some of the

l.rooms in Memorial Hall are

actually painted_"sweet

The condition of the common areas invMemorial

1 Hall seem to be the source

of much agrivation to the visitors. However, we must be aware of the facts which surround the areas in que— stion. Memorial Hall has been blessed‘with two fan— tastically capable cleaning women. However, Jesse and

.Bernie cannot possibly be . expected to keep up if

they are to be shifted from the President's house to various other places that

\"Lord Pushbroom" deems nec-

essary. Memorial Hall gets their attention only on a »mm,emﬁéytﬂéfxtr.‘ -

Flash on the Past

:St. DunStan's RED AND 'WHITE ’vol. XXXIX May, 1948 No.3 College Cronicle pg. 28 Editor A.F. Noonan Ast. Editor C. Suinatt

The enrollment this year at St. Dunstan's is the largest in the history of the institution, there being sOme three hundred students in attendance. The additional living quarters provided by the erection of Memorial Hall have en v abled the University to accept approximately seventy- five students more than in former years. Even yet, however, applications for admission had to be turned. down due to the fact that no more living quarters. were available. The large number.of applications re— ceived is an indication of

the general recggnition of

the need for education in

'our modern society. It is also a vindication of the judgement of those who foresaw the need for ex— pansion at St. DunStan's and took steps to provide for that expansion.

As was indicated above, Memorial Hall has been completed and presents a very pleasing appearance. It took a long time to erect this new building, and the cost of it certain 1y must have been high. It is heped that the students of St. Dunstan's will not be unmindful of those whos untiring efforts and gen— erous con tribut ions made

this building possible. One

way by which they can give tangible evidence of their gratitude is by taking the best possible care of the building and its equipment
