The Harvard Union which has long afforded a general meeting place for both students and Faculty, but which was this year mainly used for a mess hall and office building, will once more resume its former functions. Members of the Naval Unit and Officers' Material School are no longer using the Union rooms as mess halls and these rooms will be restored to their former condition. Definite action on the election of Club officers is awaiting the return to the University Regent, E. D. Brandegee '81.
For the present, however, the Living Room used by the ensign students, will be restored to its previous condition and will be fitted up with lounges as before. The Reading Room, which was used by the Naval men, will continue to serve as a dining room for upperclassmen. The Shed which was erected as a shelter for the Naval Unit will be torn down.
It is possible, after the Officers' Material School is disbanded, that upperclassmen may use the Smith Dining Hall. Standish and Gore Dining Halls are being used entirely by Freshmen and Unclassified Students, and many upperclassmen living in the Freshman Halls, or in the neighborhood, have to walk up to the Union for their meals. This may relieve the demand for tables in the Union sufficiently to give up the use of the Reading Room as a dining hall. Last year this room was changed into a University eating hall because Memorial Hall had been given over to the Radio School to use for its members.
