Once known ass Alpha Hall, the residence of many coeds, later during 'the war a barracks for men of the Radio section of the S. A. T. C., University Residence Hall has passed definitely under the control of the university authorities under the t -rms of a five-year lease. It houses s hundred girls, and. as might be imagined, its telephone is always ‘busy.’’ .Mrs. George A. Ball, of Muncie, wife of oge of the members of the ’ bo’.rd- of trustees, recently gave SIOOO for additional furnishings for the parlors of the hall. FORT WAYNE IS STUDYING The total enrollment of the classes in the Indiana University extension center of Fort Wayne for the fall semester is 265 students.

BOOSTS ATHLETICS AT INDIANA -UNIVERSITY ■ ww X' ’ CL i & * / *./ B MT 7 PROF W. J. MOENKHAUS. William J. Moenkhaus is professor _ of physiology at Indiana University. He is a distinguished scholar, but many of the graduates, when they return to Bloomington next spring for the Centennial festivities, will greet | th- ir old friend in a new role- for he has lately taken on the strenuous duties of the chairmanship of the athletic committee Whatever else may be said of the athletics, it cannot be called a dead issue. But the interest of Dr. Moenkhaus in athletics is w-ihaps best expressed by that famous ideal of the ancients—a sound mind in a sound body. LOANS FOR GIRLS Girls attending Indiana Univer- I sity who need the financial assist- j • a nee ot a temporary loan will now j be able to secure help through the j Student Aid Association. A small I fund has been established through the kindness of President Bryan, . and it is hoped that additional subscriptions to the fund wil be made I shortly. Under the present arrangements | it will be possible for girls to se- I cure small loans at a low rate of interest without the usual security dninatided by banks or loan asso Hattons. The plan provides tiiat a loan of not more ’bail $75.00 a i > semester or $150.00 a year will bo I i made, The rate of interest is very i low. being only I’, per cent for the lirst year, when the note matures 1 and thereafter ' r-t'T "nt. > ■ ii >
z it MRS GEORGE A BALL WOMEN FLOCK TO I. U. During the past eight or nine years, the housing problem at Indiana I ni versity has demanded attention, hut lycver until this year has the situation become so tremendously serious. The enrollment of coeds for 191 S-19 reached 730. Last summer all former records were broken by an attend- ■ ance of B*l girls and it became necI essary to call into temporary service i a large number of rooms that could ' not be approved lor winter residence i because of a lack of heating facilities Anticipating an increased attendance for this year the Dean of Women provided places for 200 extra girls; however, on the first day of registration these rooms were all ftaken and 110 new coeds were without a place to stay. At present ' there are 1,050 women students in the University. That there is a need for a woman's dormitory there is no doubt in the minds of those who arc in a position to know —a need which is the natural sequence of changes coinci dent with the growth of the University and the increased number of women students.
