MANTER HALL MAY MOVE OCTOBER 15

Mount Auburn Street Structure Will Hold Famed Prop of Students--School Is 43 Years Old

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Manter Hall Tutoring School will occupy its new quarters on the corner of Holyoke and Mount Auburn Streets on October 15, if the present plans for construction are carried out. The new building is architecturally in harmony with the structures recently built by the University.

The present Manter Hall School was founded by W. W. Nolen '84 who, immediately on his graduation, embarked upon a career of tutoring college students. Dubbed "the Widow" by some facetious student, Nolen became the pillar of support to countless members of many college generations.

He moved into Little Hall and maintained his quarters there until the end of his life.
