8 THE BATTALION COLLEGE “Y” OFF TO A GOOD START FOR THE YEAR (Continued From Page 1) games have been increased in num bers and at all hours the main floor of the Y is filled to over-flowing with students. No better place can be found for spending a vacant hour. New Reception Rooms. On the third floor a number of smaller rooms have been thrown to gether and furnished as a large re ception room easily accommodating four or five hundred guests. A smok ing room for men has been provided adjoining the main reception hall. The large room is expected to be the scene of many banquets in the future and an effort will be made to increase the activities of the various clubs and so cieties on the Campus by extending every hospitality on such occasions. While this floor is in use for some social purpose the main floor and semi basement are open to the public as usual. The Y kitchen will at some future time be equipped for the preparing of such banquets and feeds as may be de sired and the dumb waiter service will be utilized. New Third Story. The new third story almost com pleted, will contain rooms for the secretaries and their families. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis state that their ser vices to the students will be increased by living right in the building and by popular request Mrs. Lewis has been made official chaperone and hostess for the Y activities. She will ask the assistance of all Campus ladies and when not inconvenient to them, the invitation will be extended to the Bryan friends of the College. On the whole the Y seems to have come into its own, and from the Sen iors down to the Freshmen, the stu dents have in their turn taken over the Y. It bids fair to become the heart of the Campus and the center of all social activities. Movies Each Week. As in the past the Y will continue offering moving pictures on Wednes day and Saturday nights. The class of pictures to be shown, hoWever, has been changed to the very best available. Nothing is considered too good if a booking can be obtained. The Fairman shows in Bryan will repre sent the Y in this respect, due to the fact that the show is not run nightly, and regular bookings cannot be made. Mr. Fairman has promised an ex cellent run of pictures. The shows are given in the Airdome in front of the Y building. The Saturday night movie is free to Privilege Card bear- ENUS PEreOLS ""C’OR the student or prof., A the superb VENUS out rivals Ml for perfect pencil work. 17 black degrees and 3 copying.
