Auditorium Opening To Be in September That wonderful day that everyone has been waiting for will finally arrive next Septem ber, and the opening will cele brate the fiftieth anniversary of Meredith. By now everyone should know what I am talking' about. Yes, our beautiful new auditorium, and I am sure you would enjoy knowing a little about it. The big auditorium up stairs will seat approximately 1,000 people, and the one down stairs, about 200 people. The new auditorium, just as the old one, will contain the music de-1 partment which will have all of its practice rooms downstairs. | I know the music students are very thrilled over their “future ^ hangout,” and I am sure that the new building will also please the students in Jones Dorm. There is no doubt that the audi torium will be our pride and joy for many years to come.
