To Discuss Boro Hall
(Continued from page one)
The College helped further by
providing students and trucks to
remove contents of the Library
tb the former Swarthmore Preparatory School gymnasium, now
owned by the College, where Librarian Bettina Hunter and her
assistant Mrs. H. F. Shipherd have
been sorting the water sodden
volumes in an effort to salvage
any that are still usable.
As this paper goes to press plans
have just been completed to establish the Library temporarily
in the former Bell Telephone Exchange on Harvard avenue just
above Lafayette avenue.
A temporary roof has been completed on Borough Hall for protection from the weather and the
furnace was turned on this week
in order to dry out the building
so that some offices might possibly move back into it in a few
days.
Patrick Curran, custodian of the
burned building, and his wife
have been visiting members of
their family since the catastrophe
drove them from their first floor
apartment under the Library.
An appraisal of the loss sustained is being completed by Walter H. Nason, Cornell avenue
builder.
