part of the building and in a penthouse. Heat is supplied from the University's central power plant. Regardless of how well planned, the building could not serve its complete function effectively without direction and administration. To this end, the administrative offices have been located centrally on the first floor along the east side of the building. The private office of Mark H. Hindslcy, Director of Bands, adjoins and connects with both the general office and his own studio, which in turn connects with the large library file room. On the other side of the general office is an office for Director Hindsley's administrative assistant, Guy M. Duker, and beyond that is the private office of Everett D. Kisinger, Assistant Director of Bands and Director of the Football Band. Next to Kisinger's office and connected with it is a studio for the multi-phased preparation of marching performances. Director Emeritus A. A. Harding occupies an office on the second floor, where he keeps his own large group of band transcriptions and other materials assembled during his long tenure. Architecturally, the outside of the building harmonizes agreeably with the modified Georgian style in which many of the newer University buildings have been designed. It is a welcome addition to the campus scene, and stands with pride for the organizations which, for so long and so well, have represented the highest ideals of the University.
