Historical Note
Different house plans described and promoted themselves in the 1967-1968 Central House Plan Membership Booklet. Here is Crown House about their house plan: "You guys out there, come one, come all, / Get introduced to Crown House this fall, / All our members are congenial and jolly, / We won second place in the Frolics folly, / Our dated parties in our house really rate, / The guys and gals never fail to mix great, / So come to our smoker this fall, / We ask you to answer our call!"
