ONE READY Building "B" in the center of the university men's
dorm system opens Saturday. Building "A," the large structure on

winter. Building "C," a duplicate of "B," is to be ready in the fall.
Yell King Issues Call
For Student Support
In preparation for the Indiana game, Yell King Martin Pesek
today issued six suggestions to students seated in the card section
to assure better co-ordination in the traditional half-time card
stunts.
(1) Cards should be in proper order and ready to flash as soon
as the first half ends, since the flashes are prepared to coincide with
the band formations.
((2) No one should leave their seats in the card section after
ten minutes of the second quarter have been played.
Empty Seats
(3) If there are empty seats, all persons should move toward
the center of the card section so that only the edges have to be
filled. This will make it easier to fill vacant seats.
((4) Cards should be held with the long side horizontal and the
short side vertical.
(5) Signal for raising the cards will be the chant: "'One, two,
three, UP!" The same signal will be used for lowering: "One, two,
three, down!"
Don't Tear
(6) Since paper cannot be obtained as in pre-war years, stu
dents are asked not to destroy their cards. Later in the game, they
will be passed to the aisles. Corn Cobs will collect .them so that they
may be re-used a later home games.
There will be a change in the order of card stunts. This should
be kept in mind by all the students planning to sit in the card sec
tion. No. 1, a football with a red "N" will be No. 3. No. 2, the words
"Hi Hoosier," will be No. 4. No. 3, the words "Bo plus Bernie", will
be No. 1. No. 4, the word "Hoosiers," will be No. 5. No. 5, a red
"N" will be No. 2.
The cheerleader will remind the section before each stunt
which number is next. Close attention by these students will be nec
essary because there will be very little time between stunts.

Brown emphasized that all rent
must be paid before a man can
occupy his room.
Residence hall for men, build
ing "B" is the first of the three
dorm buildings now under con
struction to be completed. It is
designed to hold 68 men in two
man rooms. Those are combina
tion study and sleeping rooms.
All space in this dorm was as
signed last spring by a lottery
among applicants for the space.
Men slated for all three dorm
buildings have been living tem
porarily in the Field House, at
Huskerville or in private homes.
Basement Unfinished
Although the building will be
ready for occupancy Saturday,
Brown noted the game rooms and
lounges in the basement will not
be finished until later. Every ef
fort will be made to complete the
facilities within the next few
weeks. Landscaping and bcauti
fication cannot be undertaken un
til the two buildings still under
construction are completed.
Corner rooms in building "B
rent for $75 a semester per man.
Inside rooms are $65. When com
pleted, building "C" will have the
same number and type accom
modations as the one now open
ing. The largest of the three'A,"
when finished will house 136 men
in four-man study rooms with
dorm sleeping facilities similar to
those in fraternity houses on the
campus. These will rent for $50 a
semester.
Vacancies in "A"
At the present time there are
80 vacancies in building "A" which
cannot be completed before win
ter. These were caused by many
of last spring's lottery winners
finding other permanent resi
dences this fall.
Applicants for the rooms will be
taken again as soon as an open
ing date for building "A" can be
estimated accurately. A number
of spaces will be set aside for each
class as in the spring and wherever
necessary lotteries held to de
termine which applicants are
granted roomss.
Buthman to be Counsellor.
Henry Buthman, graduate ' aN
sistant in geolgy, will be the resi
dent counsellor at the first dorm.
Counsellors for the other two
buildings will be appointed by T.
J. Thompson, dean of men, as the
buildings are completed and filled.
Each building will have a man
ager to handle the administration
of dorm business. This will leave
the resident counsellors free from
detail so their time can be devoted
to aiding the students with per
sonal problems and helping the
derm residents organize recrea
tional and social functions.
The proposed mens dormitory
system calls for ten residence halls
combined with central dining fa
cilities. When fully completed thw
would care for nearly 1,000 stu
dents. 8
