Thus , starting in October , the Red Morton Center will be open from 7 - 9 p . m . to provide structured programs as well as occasional dances . New windows have been placed on the east side of the Red Morton Center . They are the type of windows that can be opened to provide ventilation and are constructed of a heavey duty material that is supposed to be less vulnerable to breakage from the balls . - 10-
