Collec3e Corner II I I I 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 of history, math, English and writing study together, each doing his own thing. Soft music over the intercom pervades and serves as a buffer from "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 Today, Thursday, February 9 PWP potluck, 6:30 p.m., fairgrounds.
