Faculty Busy Planning Use Of New Space
The heads of seven departments of the University, who learned Monday through a Daily Kansan story that they'll be given additional buildings by the federal works administration, were busy today figuring out how they'll put the additional space to good use.
The recommendations will be turned over to George M. Beal, University architect, who will map out the location of the buildings on the campus.
To the R.O.T.C., the addition of a new building will mean expansion of the training program to include drill on large pieces to army ordnance equipment and vehicles.
mice equipment and the Big guns, used for team drill are supplied by the national R.O.-T.C. supply headquarters only when there is adequate storage space at the individual unit. The new equipment will arrive as soon as the buildings are set up.

or a project. A proposed Marvin hall anne would take care of the expected increase in laboratory science classes when freshmen advance into those courses. There is also a need for additional drafting space.

The buildings, according to Raymond C. Nichols, executive secretary of the University, will be approximately the size of a one-story Sumnyside unit. ___
