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.
