Face-Liftings and Other Good Things Removal of the rather ungainly tinker-toy-like central staircase from the main floor of the U-M Alumni Memorial Hall, right, brings out the grace and beauty of the original architecture. Other additions and changes in the local art world augur well for the future.

On Way To England The skeleton of a woodcock's head held by Dr. Robert W. Storer, curator of birds at the U-M Exhibits Museum, will be sent to the British Museum in London. Joseph Ivacko, a sixth grader at Haisley Elementary School, holds a stuffed woodcock which is part of the U-M collection. The 11-year-old boy found the dead woodcock Storer is holding on his way to school in November. Haisley Principal Louise Ritsema planned to have the bird stuffed for the school's collection but when the University received a request for a woodcock skeleton form the British Museum, Joseph consented to have the bird sent to England.

'Monster' Display Moved Irving G. Reimann (back to camera in white shirt), director of the University's Exhibit Museum, inspects prehistoric "monster" display which has been moved from the northwest to the southeast end of the exhibit hall. Changes also involved raising the background mural and the anatosaurus skeleton immediately in front of it to higher levels for better viewing. In upright "natural" position between it and the mastodon skeleton in foreground is allosaurus. Totally enclosed in glass, immediately behind the mastodon is the skeleton of the prehistoric rhinoceros, diceratherium. The relocation and improvement in the display was made possible by funding which permitted covering windows at the far end of the hall from the door, behind the mural. (News Photo by Cecil Lockard)
