Back in those days, the dorms were not locked. Anyone could walk in. However,
the 4th floor of Dorm B was designated the Quiet Hall, where supposedly the residents were dedicated to quiet study with a minimum of partying and unnecessary noise. To keep out the riffraff, the doors at the two ends of the hallway were locked, and an intercom system was installed so that visitors could ring their friends and hall and get "buzzed in." This did nothing about the riffraff residing in the hall.

In this sheet, we are painting the hallway light blue, with white trim around the doors. Sim Adams celebrates his 19th birthday with the help of his friends Don Friedburg and Serge Smirnoff. Margaret Tucker also celebrates a birthday with a cake. Ellen Slavitz and a friend play a duet on the balcony.
