During Rigorous Conditions
Of Past Winter
Buildings without heat and light
are unusable and the present build-
.ings of the University of. Michiga
have arrived at the very limit of
the ability of the present power
Plant to supply heat and light, no
matter whether the present Legis-
jature adds to our building space
or not. During the present winter
of 1928-1929 it has been. necessary
for considerable periods to run the
lhrgest boilers at more than 250
per cent of their rating. Such over-
ldading may take place occasional-,
41 but it cannot continue indefi-
nitely.
It is not the part of wisdom to
run.the plant without a wider mar-
gin between normal daily demands
and limit capacity. Even if the
present Legislature adds no Uni-
versity buildings, within the next
two .years..our Power Plant will be
called upon to carry the Elemen-
tary Shool for which an appro-
priationm has been made, a large
dormitory, for women, and the
great Legal Research Building and
an addition to. the Lawyers Club
dormitory to be erected and pres-
ented to the State by a distinguish-
ed alumnus.of the University resid-
ing in New. York.-
The situation.can be shown from
another ppint of view. In 1922 the
University; had approximately 24.-
500,000 cubical feet contents in its
buildings. At that time it had ap-
proximately 4,200 boiler horse-
power in .its heating plant. Today,
without reference to the buildings
in immediate prospect as listed
above, the cubical feet contents of i
the University buildings are, 56,-
500,000 while the boiler horsepower
has increased to 6,200. Thus while
the space. to- be heated has in-
creased approximately 130 per cent
th, boiler capacity has increased
on4y1 about.47.6 per-cent and-mean-
while ten of the twelve boilers now
in, the heating plant have been
growing older and less efficient.
We believe it is obvious that this
condition, cannot be left to itself;
something must be done.
To remedy the situation, requests
for the biennium include the pur-
chase and installation of a boiler
of 1,000 horsepower, to be set up on
a foundation provided when the
Power House was enlarged; the
purchase andinstallation of an ad- I
ditional 2,000 kilowatt generator,
the provision of tunnels carrying

Members of the University of
Michigan club of Rochester are co-
operating with other college grad-
uates of that city to provide a bu-
reau of' information for prospec-
tive college students, according to
dispatches received by °r. Hawley'
Tapping, yesterday.
The purpose is to have the vari-
ous represenitatives organize and
arrange a program for the high
school students to include intro-
ductory talks on college work in
general,' entrance requirenients,
scholarship, and living expenses.
These, t4ks are to be followed by

Indian survey,' an organization
studying the archaeology of the
state, is arranging for a program
which will insure Indian history of
Pennsylvania b e i n g completely
covered.
After leaving Wilkes Barre, Dr.
Guthe visited the University mu-
seum of the University of Pennsyl-
vania at Philadelphia where ;he
conferred with officials of that in-
stitution. On his return trip he
stopped off at Lancaster, Penn., to
examine what is believed to be the'
finest collection of Indian pottery
in Pennsylvania. I
The Michigan archaelogist is con-
fident that the proposed expansion
program in Pennsylvania will be a
complete success, due to the en-i
thusiasm manifested by the Penn-
sylvania archaelogists at the recent
meeting.
