Rivalry between the two active house units is assuming an extraordinary aspect. Not to be outdone by "the bells of Lowell," Dunster House is striving to decorate itself wherever a bare surface will support new ornamentation.

Crimson, blue, yellow, and orange paint is splattered on at random. The new buildings will be pied by day as well as by night.
