Work Begins On
Rec Hall Soon
Led by the student council and
the four literary societies, Euter-
pean, Mnemosynean, Cliosophic,
and Delphian, the students of Bre
vard college will begin the redec
oration of the recreation hall
this week.
During the course of remodeling,
the bookstore will be moved to the
center room of West Hall. A can
teen will be blocked off from the
first roll of pillars that divide the
rec hall. Only such things as soap
powders, sandwiches, coffee, and
school supplies will be sold at the
canteen.
Students are seriously consider

ident Ehlhardt that the canteen be
named “THE ARK.”“The animals,”
he explains, “will come in two by
two.”
The four societies are as excited
about this new project as are the
Student council members. Upon
realization that a generous amount
of money would be needed for this
project, the Mnemosyneans imme
diately began to make plans for
raising their share. They have de
cided to give an old-fashioned
square dance featuring the ‘Drift
ers,” a very popular string band,
and the Brevard clogging team.
Martha Gibbs, president of the
Euterpeans, is sure that her group
will be able to raise enough money
to help a great deal with the rec
hall. She also has promised help
with scrubbing the floors and chip
ping the old paint off the walls.
The Delphians have agreed to
raise money for a new ping - ping
