Gym Inhabitants Depart as Houses Come to Rescue

The number of Indoor Athletic Building residents dipped to about 120 last night as Associate Dean Robert B. Watson '37 reported that accommodations for the men living there are being found in the College at the rate of 8 to 12 a day.

Watson added that if the present pace continues, all of the students temporarily assigned to the top-floor of the gymnasium should be in College rooms by October 11. The deadline for turning the makeshift living quarters back to athletic use is October 20.

Meanwhile, among the Houses where the extra men will be absorbed in a roundabout way, reports indicated that assignments were being made slowly but with care that new roommates wouldn't be jammed down present members' throats.

In each, taking 20 new upperclassmen from the Yard and Claverly, the seven House Masters have been using a completely new system.
