    contrary to persistentrumors, is not the result of adizzied, blindfolded administrator 's dart thrownhaphazardly at a map of thecampus. Mrs. Joan Cooper,head librarian, explained thatthe new building "wasoriginally intended to be onlyan addition to the library thenoperating in the second floorof Weber Hall. The Weberfacilities could be mad e into alarge reference room to workin conjunction with the newstructure. But the completionof the 37,250 sq. ft. additionprovided ample space tohouse both sections.H The planners of the LRCwere sent back to th e drawingboard a second time whenbuilders discovered an underground stream runningthrough the planned site. As aresult, the site had to bemoved 40 ft.* to th e east.Personally, I think the underground stream flowingthrough a basement loungewould have?added a uniqueaccent to the decor of the L R C-that is, as long; as rulesforbidding skinnydippingwere stricuy enforced.
