Holder of the national novice mixed pairs roller championship with Douglas Milne, Detroit, the 23-year-old Miss Barnard is now mixing ice skating and roller skating.

BEFORE AND AFTER: The pictures above show Veterans Village as it appeared a year ago (top) and this week (bottom), after the "good old summertime" and student residents had continued to make the place more home-like with hollyhocks, Mexican fire bushes, flower beds and trellis roses. Houses in the Village, which is designed for married veterans attending the University, are of portable type and were moved here last fall from Willow Village. The Village was set up on the two-and-a-quarter acres of land at Hill St. and Fifth Ave., north and east of the Coliseum.

Seven of these "collapsible" dwelling units, wartime landmarks of Veterans Village, emergency housing project near the University's Coliseum, are slated for removal to make room for planned additions to the Coliseum. Professional wreckers will take over the salvaging of furnishings and materials from the dwellings. Occupants already have moved to quarters either outside the project or in other units which will not be disturbed by the addition to the University building, which houses the U-M ice-skating rink.
