LONG TRADITION ENDS:
MaryMarkley House To Be Closed
By CRAWFORD YOUNG
Friends, alumnae, and residents x ° k}{ r{ *i r w
of Mary Markley House, includ- ;.;:x ",
ing white-haired Mary Markley
herself, commemorated the passing
of their house from the University<:
scene last night in a banquet at :. ;:.:.. '
the Union.:
The Board of Regents has de-
cided to cease operating the aged
structure located in the triangle "
formed by Washtenaw, Geddes,
and Forest. The house has been
running in the red for the past
decade, according to Francis
Shiel, Business Manager of Resi-
dence Halls.
Extensive repairs would be need-
ed to maintain minimum Univer-
sity standards in the house, he
said.

MRS. MARY MARKLEY, the
woman for whom the house was
named has always been keenly
interested in the house. Now in
her eighties, she still drops in for
Sunday dinner occasionally and
is an ex-officio member of the
Buard of Patronesses of the Alum-
nae Council under which the house
is operated.
Her husband, the late Prof.
Joseph Markley, was for many
years head of the mathematics
department at the University.
Mrs. Markley was one of the
first women to graduate from the
'University, receiving her degree
in 1892, and has long been active
.in numerous women's organisa-
tions in Ann Arbor.
MARY MARKLEY HOUSE was
first opened in 1917 when it was
known as Alumnae Hall and was
not operated by the University-
The original building was located
where Forest St. now intersects
Washtenaw. In 1926, however, it
was moved next door to the pre-
sent site when the first house was r
torn down to make way for the
construction of Forest St.
The 13 non-graduating resi-
dents of the house have been
given their choice of dormitory
accomodations for next year.
Five will go to Adelia Cheever,
three to Alice Lloyd Hal, two to
Martha Cook, two to League
Houses, and one to Henderson.
Five are graduating this June.
THE ALUMNAE Council has
definite plans for enlarging Hen-
derson House, another co-opera-
tive house, according to Assccite
Dean of Women Mary Bromage.
Thus there will be no actudl de-

JUST REMINISCING-Mrs. Mary Markley recalls old memories
with Barbara Grimm, Mary Markely House president, and Miss
Davis, House Mother, at a banquet in honor of Mary Markley
women held at the Union last night. The old red brick structure
at 1219 Washtenaw, which housed 18 coeds on a semi-coopera-
tive basis, will close its doors to residents for the last time this
June.
crease in the amount of co-opera-
tive housing open to coeds.
Still, Mary Markii coeds are
sorry to see their home fold. Many
house traditions have developed
during its 32 years. For instance,
Freshmen are given a formal "in-
itiation" in the Fall. Such affairs
as the Christmas and Senior
Breakfasts are eagerly anticipated
events.
The house has always been
known for its outstanding aca-
demic record.
They have won the annual tro-
phy for highest scholastic average
amcng women's residences for the
last two years. In 1948-43, they
also won the activities cup, a uni-
que sweep of independant women's
honors.

Gargoyle Folds Up Shop After
41 Years of CampusHumor
(Continued from Page 1)
GARGOYLE, which was found-
ed in 1909 just in time for the J-
Hop of that year, has outlasted
many . a . less hardy journalistic
competitor.
All through the thirties as one
literary magazine after another
folded on the campus, Gargoyle
maintained a wrinkle-proof sol-
vency, relying on its formula of
humor, features and occasional
inroads on the literary field.
Only during the war years of
1943 and 1944 did the familiar cry
of "Get your Gargoyle before the
police arrive" fail to sound along
the diag.
* * *
IN 1945, the Gargoyle was re-
vived and a series of "Bloody
Pulps," "Red Gargs" and exposes
of the fraternity system and the
private lives of University deans,
flooded the campus.
Founded originally as a lit-
erary magazine, Gargoyle boast-
ed an impressive alumni list of
magazine editors, humorists and
cartoonists.

Report Dorm
JewelTheft
Miss Ann Liggett, chief dieti-
tian at Helen Newberry Residence,
has reported to the Ann Arbor
police the theft of jewels and per-
fume valued at $100 from her
dormitory apartment.
Miss Liggett's apartment, locat-
ed about 20 feet from the back
door of the dormitory, was left
unlocked from 1:00 p.m. until her
return about 4:00 p.m. Thursday
afternoon. Miss Liggett believes
the robbery took place during her
three hour absence.
Miss Marjorie McCoy, house-
mother at the dormitory, noted the
proximity of the apartment to the
back door which "is unlocked all
day for the convenience of resi-
dents and delivery men."
Mrs. McCoy announced the theft
to the residents yesterday and
asked them to recall if they had
seen "any strangers enter the
building through the service door"
on the day of the theft.
