Citizens’ Cash Still Safe As
Bankless Vault Stands Alone
By C. C. TRAIL
In case your $6.66 for inciden
tals is running out, there is plenty
of money for everyone in the small
concrete house on the west side of
the Student Co-op. All you have
to do is get into the building, get
the money, and get out of the
country. Simple enough, eh?
It is easier said than done. That
innocent, apparently vulnerable
edifice is none other than the Col
lege Station State Bank’s vault,
Vice-President Harold Sullivan,
said that forced entrance is prac
tically impossible.
“The vault is built of rein
forced concrete, and it has the
most modern time-lock door

available. In addition, there is
another vault inside, also of the
time-lock variety, which houses
all the cash,” Sullivan said.
When the bank was first built,
the vault was permanently install
ed, and the building was to be con
structed around it. However, the
government froze the necessary
materials, and a prefabricated hut
was temporarily used.
Now the materials are available,
and construction has begun. “With
good w’eather,” Sullivan said, “we
should be able to move into the
new office by the first of April.”
Plans for the new building call
for a 40 x 60 feet concrete tile
building with a mezzanine, which
will contain a lounge and exe
cutive offices.
In the meantime, business is
transacted in a real estate office
two doors east of the former of
fice. Money is carried over every
morning by armed guards who pro
tect the depositors interests twen
ty-four hours a day.
Actually, Sullivan should double
his vault guard. It is quite ap
parent that something is in the
wind, because the civil engineering
department has revealed that CE
305, strength of materials, has had
a record enrollment.
