The above figures will show the increased use of tho building and conso=
quent taxing of all of its facilitios, and small staff. This year with
the completion of the English Room, the Pine Room was again freed for
mectings and an attempt was made not to use it for meal service unless
absolutely necessarye Tho wost end of tho ballroom was furnished with
the old lounge furniture in order to use it as a mocting room. The
Mon's- lounge though vory undcsirable because of noise from tho main
Loungo and lobby is continually usod for smokers, teas, meetings with a
speaker. On a number of occasions the student activitics office has been
pressed into servico for moctings of small groupse Also, tho cafeteria
is usod when no other rooms are available.
