TRENCH EYE VIEW-Construction on State St. as seen from
the trench. Street is being widened to handle traffic.

By DAVID GELFAND
At last report, a medium size
yellow steamshovel was seen tear-
ing down a venerable old elm in
front of the Alpha Delt house.
From the Congregational Church
to the Law Library, State St. lies
open and gutted. With summer
school and the absence of crowds
of students, University and Ann
Arbor construction men are taking
full advantage of the lull to rush
old projects and start a few new
ones as well.
Most conspicuous of the sum-
mer's undertakings is the widening
of streets in and around the cam-
pus area. Construction centers
aroundState St.. From William to
Monroe, curbs and sidewalks have
been ripped out and trenches dug
in preparation for newe ones that
will widen the perpetually jammed
thoroughfare by severl feet.
Other streets undergoing alter-
ation are Ingalls, in front of the
Rackham Building, and Fletcher,
from North University to Wash-
ington.
The University is also taking ad-
vantage of the summer lull to com-
plete several of its projects.. Ac-
~,cording to L. W. Fry, supervising
architect for the University,con-
struction on both campuses is
booming.
On the lForth Campus, the Ford
donated Phoenix Nuclear Reactor
is expected to be ready for use
in September. Also, married stu-
dents will get a break with the
completion of the second North-
wood Apartment group, scheduled
for occupancy this fall.
On the main campus, remodel-
ing begins soon on the Frieze
Building, old Ann Arbor high
schools, which will be taken over
by classes next fall.
Construction is also slated for
the new food service equipment
building at University Hospital as
soon as underpinnings for the new
building are completed.
Though steel for the skeleton is
scheduled to arrive in August, the
steel strike, should it last long,
could set back construction sched-
ules.
However, the strike is not ex-
pected to affect construction of
the Undergraduate Library -- it
does not employ structural steel-
nor is it expected to delay any
other University construction pro-
jects.

ZJPIONS

To the eye, the new Corvette and
the new Chevrolet are far different.
But these two champions have one
superb quality in common-both
were born to cling to the road as
though they were part of it!
Chevrolet's astonishing roadability
is a big reason why it's America's
short track stock car racing cham-
pion. It can and does out-run and
out-handle cars with 100 more
horsepower. When you wed rock-
solid stability to superb engines
such as the 225-h.p. V8 that flashed
the Corvette to a new American
sports car record-then you get a
real championship combination.
Stop by for a sample!,
