Can House
Armed with pails, cleanser, rags
and scrub brushes, a group of enter-
prising coeds on, the fourth floor of
Betsy Barbour House spent yesterday
morning washing the walls and fix-
tures in their lMathroom.
The coeds finally tired of the ac-
cumulated filth of a year or so and
decided to do something about it.
"We hope our example will encour-
age other groups on the campus to
initiate a little spring cleaning of
their own," one of the students re-
marked.
