The place for you is the Student Union Movie Marathon, more or less affec tionately known as the Russell House Assembly Room. Tomorrow's selection, Wake Me When It's Over, stars Ernie Ko vacs in a free-wheeling, loose minded satire on the time-honored army tradition of red tape.

The oldest book in the library, was printed in 1477, by Bernard Colonia, and given to the Uni ,rsity by Fisk Brewer in 1874. his valuable book contains quo tions from Latin grammarians the period. Perhaps the most unique part 'the volume, apart from its con nt, is its binding. The pages, ade of linen rags, are bound be reen two boards which were iginally covered with leather. No leather straps once held the ok closed and prevented the yoden covers from warping. Inside this volume one notices e absence of title page informa mn which is later discovered to in the back, the varieties of int and type, and the colorful. tistic capital letters which were inted by hand.

F'ederal forces occupying Columbia used the hall. In 1882, it housed a local military unit. Mechanical workshops and classrooms were in it during one period. In 1888, it became a science building. Five years later, its basement was conv'erted into a gymnasium, and finally in 1910 the entire structure was given over to physical edlucation. It reC mains "The Gym" to this day. Thus, College llall - the "Greek tempille" pride of architect William Graves - has p)rovedl useful in many ways, although it was worth less from the start for its original purpose. There would be0 a great (eal of history revealed if the pesky old echoes of the past 157 years could be revived.
