New Naismith mascot
'George's sleeps on couch
George isn't the stud fellow Naismith residents thought he was.
He never studies—just slouches around begging for food and never listening to anyone.
"There are no baskets that listen," said Bill Spotts, Naismith manager, about the hall's mascot, a 55 pound basset hound, "they're ornery and they just look at you like you're nuts."
Naismith Hall residents took up a collection and bought George (full name George Washington—because he was born on the fourth of July) when Spotts' first basset hound, Elmer, was hit by a car and killed in front of Old Robinson last January.
"George loves candy bars, popcorn, hot dogs, hamburgers, anything the kids eat," Spotts said.
Took up collection
George, who sleeps "on the couch, under the table, any place" loves to ride elevators, a habit he acquired "last summer looking. for people," Spotts said.
Anyone entering Naismith is aware of George's worst habit—every door has a sign saying "Please Keep this door closed—Don't let the dog out."
entering the hall asks about him before they ask about the mail or what's for dinner.
And just about every resident
But everyone is a little disappointed in him. The attempt to have him mate with a lady basset down the street failed. The plan was for the hall to acquire a lady basset from the litter to be
named Martha, so George would have some company.
"He went down five days," Spotts said, "He was interested for so long then . . ." The veterinarian said George was just too young, Spotts said.

Where does an engineer intern?
Before you decide on the job that's to start you on your professional career, it's good to ask a few point blank questions . . . like:
- Will this job let me rub shoulders with engineers doing things that haven't been done before, in all phases of engineering?
- Will I be working for an engineering oriented management whose only standard is excellence?
- Will I have access to experts In fields other than my own to help me solve problems and stimulate professional growth?
- Will I be working with the widest range of professional competence and technological facilities in the U. S.?
- Are engineering careers with this company stable . . . or do they depend upon proposals and market fluctuations?
