Monday, December 8, 1919

Overcast very mild day. To college 8-9; 11-12 and 1:30 to 4 P.M. Home between 9-11 A.M. Chored around. Down town in P.M. Bowled at Morse Alleys. To football smoker in evening at Hannah Hall. Good time. To bed 11 P.M.

**********
Hannah Hall, located in Washburn Hall, was where theatrical productions were staged for many years. Here is an excerpt from the Union College Magazine about Hannah Hall and the theatrical group, the Mountebanks:
The Mountebanks performed in Hanna Hall for a number of years, and students took play production classes through the English Department. When Washburn Hall was slated for demolition in the early 1960s to make room for expansion of Schaffer Library, the theater moved to the now-vacated Nott Memorial, and a new era of theater began at Union.
