New halls increase women's dormitory capacity to 370
Cooperation is the main fac-1
tor upon which the program of
the dormitory is dependent. The
social program, fpr example, is
worked out by the girls with
the advice and guidance of the
social director. Many tradi
tional affairs have grown up
since Carrie Belle Raymond
was opened in 1932. These cus
toms, the two new units will in
herit. Some of these are the
Christmas party, the May
morning breakfast, senior din
ner, birthday dinners, and in
formal pajama parties.
The residents are encour
aged to participate in all intra
mural tournaments. Behind the
halls, four private tennis courts
are maintained for those who
like that sport.
Distinctive plans.
Floor plans and furnishings
of the three units, though dis
tinctive enough to give each
unit a separate personality, are
very similar. The main floors
have lounges, both large and
small, and reception rooms
where visitors may be received
by the residents.
The upper floors contain pri
vate and double rooms taste
fully furnished. The upper
floors have, in addition to stu
dent rooms, charming lounges,
modern bathrooms, and well
equipped kitchenettes. Parlors,
kitchenette, and directors suite
are found on the first floor.
he dormitories also have laun
dry rooms, a shampoo room
and an infirmary.
First class quarters.
Thus 370 of the University's
unaffiliated women students

the residence halls they know

slow to realize the stringent prob
lems besetting other nations. "Peo
pie do not starve without doing
something about it," said the first
lady. "It is to our advantage to
stay at peace, and to the advant
age of other nations to go to war,
because life is no longer worth
living at peace."
To have peace here always, we
must have peace throughout the
world the first lady said, "for con
flagrations spread."
She emphasized repeatedly the
need for cooperation in solving all
problems, and said that war never
solved anything. In disarmament,
we must all disarm at once before
we accomplish anything construe
tive, for one disarmed nation is at
the disadvantage of the armed na
tions, Mrs. Roosevelt said. Also,
she said that nations which are
highly armed are tempted to use
their arms, and that nations em
ploying men in armament Indus
tries must reach a limit, and then,
unless there is war, there must be
a drastic reorganization of indus
try.
One way.
The one way to have peace, she
said, is to really want peace above
everything else, and we haven't
yet learned even at home, not. to
use force between differing groups
Mrs. Roosevelt stressed the bad
effects of war on nerves and on
the bodies of the children of coun
tries, now that war is brought so
close to home. "Civilization can't
stand a war every twenty years,"
she said, "for results are felt for
many years afterwards."
"Unless we find peace, we may
be heading toward the end of our
civilization," the first lady said,
She warned Americans not to
feel too secure, because of the
? constantly decreasing barriers of
space and time. She said that we
do not know how soon the Atlantic
and Pacific will be no factor at all
in security.
Most important things for us to
do are to show the world our gov
ernment does work, to keep our
heads, to work out our difficulties
and give sympathy and under
standing to the harassed nations,
Mrs. Roosevelt believes.
It is time we are beginning to
be objective and to bear our indi
vidual duties as citizens, said Mrs,
Roosevelt, fdr after all, we must
remember that we cannot live
alone, that our children will be
even more closely bound than we
are, and that we should try to
bring something about that will
mean peace for the world as a
whole.

life away from home. The ill
lighted, poorly ventilated room
ing houses of the past, at least
for them, are gone. But what
of the remaining unaffiliated
students both men and
women?
These live in University
sponsored cooperative houses
and University approved board
ing houses. For these students
conditions haven't improved
very much. To those who
fought for better living condi
tions for students, the fight is
far from over. If they keep on
working the future holds a
promise or at least a hope
that the work that has .already
been accomplished will be over
shadowed by future develop
ments.
