Tester Hits New Dorms' Furniture

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The furniture for the new graduate dormitories is no more functional than the old, according to Winton U. Solberg, proctor of Conant Hall, who has been testing the chairs and desks in his own suite.

Solberg complained yesterday that the desk was too small, the bookcase too big, and there were no cushions provided for the hard window seat. he admitted, however, that the new modern furniture was more beautiful than the older.

The new furniture will be altered to meet Solberg's recommendations before it is installed this summer.

Even if these minor changes are made, the furniture will "not justify the rise in room rents," Solberg claimed.
