Huff 43 W. 8th Ave. Ph. 5-3525 halls. To be completed in time for use spring term is the rejuvenation of Deady, the oldest building on cam pus. The building will once again be occupied by the mathematics department, I. I. Wright, head of the physical plant, stated. The latest in a long series of im provements, the recent remodeling includes a “complete rehabilita tion," according to Wright, with a new steam heating system, asphalt tile and acoustical tile for the ceil ings only a few of the tangible re sults of the renovation. Tradition Remodeling of Deady, which seems to be a deeply rooted tradi tion, began in 1918, and in 1936 one of the first repnintings was done by WPA painters. At that time the rooms were re-wired and the second floor zoology laboratory was repainted. Another WPA project providing for ventilation, acoustical 'treating' of ceilings, indirect lighting, new window blinds for darkening the rooms and painting of the first floor lecture rooms was carried on during winter term of 1939. The following month, the ceil ings were painted pale green and indirect lighting was installed, plus raised seats and platforms and a new system of exit ventilation all over the building'. Fall term of that year brought new, “pedestal-type" chairs to Deady, in the first floor lecture rooms. Face Lifting Johnson hall, the other building under-going face lifting, is the home of the news bureau, the bu reau of information and the presi dent’s office among others. Of concern to many students, both old and new, is the question of what has become of the stained glass roof which covered the sky light in the hall. Portraying the seal of the University, in many colors, the glass was over what was formerly the registrar’s office. The stained glass roof has been removed and stored for later use. according to Wright. What was formerly the lobby of the offices, spnce Wright called "dead space," is being converted to offices. The second floor of Johnson, former home of the old University theater, will house the chancellor’s office and the State Board of High er Education office now occupying about hall the space. These changes will also be completed dur ing spring term, according to Wright. : • '• ■." !
