More than 2,000 pounds of turkey, and all the trimmings including dressing, gravy, mashed potatoes, greens and pumpkin pie were provided and prepared by hundreds of volunteers. Preparation of this feast began at 7:30 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day. Volunteers prepared the meal at CCNV's shelter at 425 second street, which is located within a few blocks of the capitol.

On this campus, the Moore Building is the building about which rumors fly. Originally the Walter E. Moore building was one of the oldest on campus. The building, built in 1924, was very expensive for the time. The total construction cost was about $250,000. Moore was originally a female residence hall housing about 180 girls. Two wings were also added at a later date. On one wing was the cafeteria which served the campus for almost 30 years. While it was still a woman's hall, Moore was considered the place for culture and courtship. With its beautiful and graceful design it was the social center for the whole campus. Now for the "good stuff." Dr. Doug Davis in Student Development, reasons that the only room for speculation comes from the death of Miss Fanny Goodman. Goodman had been a very dedicated teacher here for 24 years. In the spring of 1950, Goodman retired. After a retirement dinner, Goodman left the party and went to her room, located in the Moore Building. Once in her bedroom, Goodman removed her cap and gown and suffered a fatal heart attack. This legitimate death seems to be the only cause of speculation known to Dr. Davis.
