When Olympic College Extension Center moved into the building
formerly occupied by Mason County Federal Credit Union a few
years ago, there seemed to be ample room for the Individual Progress
Center, which was its original goal.
Since its inception, the campus has had cooperation from many
sources as it has continued to grow. Rooms at the high school are
being used at night. Exceptional Foresters have shared a building.
Grant C. Angle School has provided its wood shop. Classes have been
held at the Colonial House through the courtesy of Simpson Timber
Company.
This winter the movable partitions within the College Center's
structure have been shifted to provide an added classroom. To
complete this, the counselor's office was tucked into the corner of
another study room. Extra chairs and tables were purchased this
winter and were added to the largest study room for the I.P.C.
Students at present study together in this library. Speed readers
sit" with their backs to the center of the room. Students of history,
math, English and writing study together, each doing his own thing.

"It's a Gift" features W.C.
Fields as Harold Bissonette, a
merchant plagued by a shrewish
wife, a disintegrating car, an
obnoxious infant (Baby LeRoy),
a flood of molasses, and a blind
hotel detective intent upon
wrecking the Bissonette grocery.
The film contains one of the
most memorable scenes in the
Fields canon, that in which
Bissonette's attempts at slumber
are defeated by a milkman, a
bouncing coconut, the clacking
of female tongues, and a man
asking the whereabouts of Carl
LaFong.
In "Duck Soup," regarded by
devotees of the Marx Brothers as
probably their greatest film,
Groucho, as Rufus T. Firefly,
becomes prime minister of
Freedonia at the insistence of
the batty Mrs. Teasdale
(Margaret Dumont). His
diplomatic skills are such that
Freedonia is soon at war with the
neighboring country of Sylvania,
and Harpo becomes the
Freedonian Paul Revere. The
mirror scene, in which Chloe and
Harpo impersonate Groueho, is
one of the Brothers' finest, and
