The general impression you give
in an interview will be governed
by four factors: posture; neatness
and appropriateness of dress—
wear a hat, little jewelry, stock-
ings, and shoes, not loafers; man-
ners—be courteous, poised, and
not over-anxious; and general at-
titude. Let the interviewer as the
questions, although you ould
know beforehand exactly wily you
want to work at this specific com-

do so.
A note thanking the interviewer
for the. time he spent, emphasizing
your interest, and hoping you will
be considered for the post should
be written upon your return home.

A.A. and Administration Work Jointly to Provide
Recreational Facilities for Students on Campus
Continued from Page 1
The plan, almost since the Barn
was acquired, was to convert it
into a recreational hall.
This year, by the end of October,
the final plans of the interior had
been drawn up. The Barn consists
of one large room, with a very
high ceiling. The big room is to
have a large, open, stone fireplace
where marshmallows, popcorn, and
other goodies can be roasted. The
floor of the room is to be of flag-
stone, which will be attractive as
well as increase the insurance
against fire. A wide picture win-
dow, which will look down over
the hockey fields and tennis courts,
and four other windows will make
a very bright room. The walls
will be left unpainted, and will
probably be varnished later. The
lean-to walls at one end are to be
knocked out, making a place for
open air picnics. There is a cel-
lar room under the other end,
which will be left as it is for an
equipment room.
If everyone will consider the
recreational facilities on campus
for just a moment, she will realize
how desperately the Applebee
Barn is needed for additional
space. The college has expanded
so. greatly during the last decade
that the rooms in Goodhart no
longer fill the bill. Saunder’s Barn,
where picnics and parties used to
be held, is now an antique of the
past and hasn’t been used for four
years.
The Athletic Association wants
to stress the fact that the Barn is
not just a place for athtletes. It
will be used by all organizations,
but even more important, it will
be a place open to everyone, where
they can just go and relax, smokeyf’
read, play games, or do whatev
they desire to do. Probably, but
this will have to be worked out
later with the Administration, it
will be open occasionally in the
evenings. The Barn will be great
fun, and certainly is needed by all.
Therefore it concerns every stu-
dent on campus.
The A.A. is organizing and run-
ning the construction with Mr.
Smedley, Miss Howe, Mrs. Paul,
and the rest of the Administration,
but it needs everyone’s support.
Financially, there is still a large
hole in the dike. Due to the great
generosity of Miss Applebee, the
A.A. was fortunate to have $300v
to start off with, which covers most
of the work and the electricity.
$700 is still needed to pay for the
fireplace, and $300 for decoration
and furniture. Later after the
main work is done, it is hoped that
Work Weekends can be organized
to do additional jobs, such as
planting, building an outside oven
and a walk to the door, and paint-
ing. Wendy Ewer has been chosen
by the A.A. Board to serve as a
coordinator for these projects.
The A.A. has undertaken to
raise the needed $1000, and hopes
that the main balance of this will
come from class gifts. All contri-
butions will be gratefully received,

Arthur Meets His Doom,
Still Lost in Indecision
Continued from Page 1
“This won’t do,” said their captain,
“T’ll send out scouts to search for
a new home.”
In the night the scouts came
back and said they had found an
fold coop of a barn where there
would be room and board for them
all. At once the captain gave the
order “Form in line!” All the rats
crawled out of their holes and
stood in a long line. To Arthur
the old rat said coarsely “Of
course you are coming?” ‘Well,
I don’t know,” replied the young
rat .calmly, “the roof may not
come down yet.” “Well,” said the
wld rat, “we can’t waic for you to
join us. Right about face! March!”
And the long line marched out of
the loft while the young rat watch-
ed them. “I think I’ll go tomor- .
row,” he said, “but then again, I
don’t know; it’s so nice and snug
here.”
That night there was a big
crash. Down came beams, rafters,
joists, the whole roof.
’ The next morning it was a foggy
day. Some men came to look at
the loft. They thought it odd that
it wasn’t haunted by rats. But at
last one of them happened to move
a board and he caught sight of a
young rat, half in and half out of
his hole. Thus the shirker had his
due.
no matter how small, from class
functions. The A.A. also plans to
give something this year, and
donate to the Barn. In the future
a custom of ,giving, as is used in
many othe¢ colleges, is being
thought about. This refers to ar-
ticles of furniture, and other ob-
jects that would be nice to have in
the future. The Undergrad Board
has started this off by offering one
of the pianos from the Rumpus
room.
Work has already started, so the
Applebee Barn should be finished
by early Spring, .if all goes well
and the needed assistance comes
in,
