It was thought quite harm- r less and consequently few paid any at- tention to it. Within the last six years, n however, I have noticed a very re- f markable thange. It is no longer a - disease, it has become an institution. e I do not desire to pass upon its merits e nor'do I desire to condemn it entirely. It 'has many good points but it also has many poor ones. These I wish to y talk about. n Like everything else it has its place d and, frankly, this. is not at football s games. The girls are ruining our cheering, in so far as they drag faith- t- ful but weak rooters from the north to r- the south stand. We like the girls i- and we like to see them in the south n stand, where we can gaze at the riot e of brilliant and startling colors and is where they can listen to our rooting. r, But, when they take with them some g of the rooters, depleting the cheering )f section, then we think they are over- x- stepping their right and proper lim- f- its. modern design, with/a facade 17 feet wide, richly decorated with a row of columns, and bronze tile ornaments- such will be Michigan's new auditori- um when the architect's drawings, now in possession of Secretary Smith of the University, are realized. Four huge columns 26 feet high support the architrave across which is inscribed "Hill Memorial Hall," in memory of Arthur Hill whose gift of $200,000 made the edifice possible. Leading up to the five doors, which alternate with the columns, is a short flight of steps. The doprs open upon a lobby which extends across the building. and from which leather-cov- ered doors lead to the foyer. The parquet is 86 feet long. The ceiling of the main auditorium is a se- ries of arches, beginning with that above the pipe organ and extending nearly to the back wall. The proscen- ium arch is 74 feet wide where it touches the stage. The plan of the auditorium proper was supervised by Hugh Tallant, acoustics engineer, 'of New York City, The stage is 29 feet deep. It is flank- ed by four artist's rooms, besides a di- scenery, etc. Up in the flies are rooms for choristers, the organ box, and L, tuning room. On the balcony floor are retiring rooms, and a lecture room extending along the front of the building. The. balcony is itself 42 feet deep, and the second balcony, or gallery, fifty feet. The auditorium will be heated by a system of fans blowing hot air into] what are called plenum chambers, un- der the floors. Suction fans in the ceiling complete the ventilation. There will be' automatic heat regulation. It is planned to make the building fireproof. The floors and walls will be constructed of reinforced concrete, and also the roofs and stairways. The general scheme of construction con- sists of steel columns supporting gird- ers and trusses, of the same material, for the roof and balconies. At present, the bids for the build- ing are under consideration of the Fi- nance and the Buildings and Grounds committees of the Board of Regents. When they have decided which offer is the most advantageous, President Hutchins and Secretary Smith will make the contract.
