Naismith notes

Dorm residents happy
By JOHN KIELY
Naismith Hall got off to a slow start. Three and a half weeks into the semester the privately financed, luxury residence hall is half full.
"We'll keep going. It's a long term investment," said William Spotts, manager of Naismith Hall which boasts maid service, unlimited food at meals, connecting baths and a two-girls-to-one-man ratio.
THE RESIDENTS like the place. "Don't make the story too good," said Ted Dalziel, Chapman sophomore and former McCollum Hall resident, "I don't want a lot of people moving in. Right now there are only 80 of us (men) so it's very chummy."
In the modernistically decorated lunge Wallace Slusser, Marion freshman, said, "I like Naismith, the food's great and with the adjoining bath there's no traipsing down the cold hall."
In the wood paneled and brushed steel elevator approaching seventh floor, Ed Davis, Kansas City junior, observed, "This elevator is nicer than the room I had at the frat."
HE ENTERED the room he has at Naismith Hall. He shares it with Ted Harding, Overland Park sophomore. It has two single beds, a sink and two study consoles which combines a desk with a bulletin board, drawers and book shelves and is lighted with two built-in fluorescent bulbs.
Greetings and commotion brought Roy Pugsley, Youngstown, Ohio, sophomore, into the room. Asked about the food he
verified Spotts' report that "they can go back for seconds, fourths, as long as they want."
Puglesk said, "I had four pork chops the other night." Dalziel entered the room. He too appreciates the meals. "Our steak every Saturday is always good."
DALZIEL COMMENTED on the chartreuse and red tweed carpets that cover the rooms, the halls and the television and ironing rooms. "The level of the noise is remarkably lessened, just by the carpeting." Davis said all noise was cut out when the room door was closed and Slusser had said, "It's a good quiet place to study."
Harding, an ex-serviceman, was pleased with the maid service.
WEATHER
The U.S. Weather Bureau predicts mostly cloudy skies with occasional showers or thundershowers tonight. Low tonight will be upper 40s and precipitation probability 70 per cent. Partly cloudy skies predicted for Friday with scattered showers likely.
"Once a week they clean our room. We get two percale sheets and a pillow case each week. The first day in, we were issued water glasses. It's different than the service."
