The original Haven Hall is the most prominent building; Mason Hall and South Wing are to the right of it. The picture was drawn before the enrollment expansion of the 1870's forced the administration to build University Hall between Mason Hall and South Wing. Campus Buildings-Old and New When the University in 1950 de- cided it needed additional class- room, office and auditorium space it was characteristic that it should blueprint a modern four-million dollar structure and construct it behind classic, 30-year-old Angell Hall. It was also traditional that the shiny, glass and brick additions should carry along a bit of the old with them; hence the historic names of Haven Hall, Mason Hall and Angell Hall were designated. Since 1841, when the first Re- gent-authorized building, Mason Hall, was erected, the University has followed an architectural pol- icy of adding a wing or a dome here, sandwiching a structure in there aid imbuing even the new- est construction with tradition. The present campus, spotty but serviceable, with the old and new intermingled, has resulted. S* *:"* BUT IF THE recently dedicated additions bear the names of one- time campus landmarks, they claim little other resemblance to them. Old Mason Hall, which in the 1870's became the North Wing of University Hall, was a box- like guant structure. Planned to serve a small enrollment, it con- sequently housed a library, mu- seum, chapel, recreation room and for several years, students' living accommodations. Four-storied new Mason Hall, built to relieve an overcrowded campus, is restricted mostly to classroom space. It also provides quarters for the journalism de- partment, a vision research lab- oratory,. a psychology workshop and a Romance Languages labor- atory. * * * HAVEN HALL was equally as versatile as its State Street part- ner Mason Hall in the University's early days. Built in 1862 and later named after University president Erastus C. Haven, it at various times held the Law school, the General Library, a Regent's meet- ing room, the extension service and several departmental head- quarters. But in 1950 when the University drastically needed all available classroom and office space, Haven Hall was demolished by fire and later that year, construction of the new Haven Hall and the other two additions was begun. Today, Haven Hall provides permanent office space for fac- ulty membersfand, departmental quarters which have for two years been plagued with temporary housing facilities at all ends of the campus. .Y Fountain Pens Greeting Cards Stationery Office Supplies Typewriters W/C_.Tape & Wire Recorders Steel Desks, Chairs, Files rb. r" v w O Ca Q C3 mow. t * * * * Wisconsin Students Discover Morpheus Influences Perch By JAN WINN Perch go to sleep at night too. This fact was recently establish- ed by three students of the Uni- versity of Wisconsin who with an echo-sounder on a forty-foot Navy launch traced the movements of schools of perch in Lake Mendota. They found that the fish spend the night sleeping on the bottom near the shore. During the day the perch swim in large schools through the water at depths ranging between 25 and 35 feet below the surface. As the light diminishes toward sundown they move toward shore until they reach the bottom. Then the school disperses, each fish sinking to the sandy bottom for the night.:, When the sun rises the perch rise too. They then congregate in- to schools and move back into deeper water. What they do on rainy days is still pending investigation al- though it is suspected that they "stay in bed." - MORRILL'S Phone 314 5. State 7177 Open Saturday till 5 P.M.

The 'new picture is taken from the same corner, State Street at North Uni- versity, and shows the recently opened classroom building Mason Hall. The building perpetuates the name of Michigan's first governor, Stevens T. Mason. Housing 47 classrooms and several depart- mental laboratories, Mason Hall represents the most serviceable form of twentieth century architec- ture. Among its features is a heat radiation mechanism under main sidewalk entrances to melt snow.

The above room is one of the club meeting or seminar rooms of South Hall. The ornate platform decorations were typical of such rooms in early University buildings. Compared with other society halls which were usually hung with curtains and scattered with classic statues, this one would have been considered plain. W AHR'SUNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE ...316 SOUTH STATE STREET FACING THE STUDENT OF TODAY-The note-taker as well as the lecturer was considered by architects of the four Angell Hall auditoriums. Natural wood desks and cushioned chairs provide comfortable accommodations for lecture classes of up to 200 persons. End-of-the-alphabet students in the last rows have no trouble hearing the lecturer up front with new accoustical facili- ties. For visual education purposes, each auditorium has equip- ment for showing motioh pictures and slides from a theater-type projection room.
