In reference TO the new buildings
the Rev. John Cavanaugh said:
"Badin hall will probably not be
ready 20 receive students for another
month. The restaurant. however.
will probably be open within a week
We have made particular efforts TO
hasten the work of the builders be-
cause a considerable number of stu

Der Will probably grow as time

"Badin hall itself will be the most
attractive dormitory on the campus

THE architect OF Badin hall is

OF cutie exceptional skill in build
ing.
I'VE have not vet determined the

il is my conviction that the rector of

of particularly fine caliber. The
student opinion favors the appoint
