URGES LARGER UNION
Lowered Building Costs to Permit Better Building for Same Money
MORE SPACE FOR WOMEN
Plans for the Kansas Union building are receiving the most careful consideration. An extensive investigation is under way in the effort to have the building serve to the best advantage all University interpersonal structural structure of which all friends of the University may be proud.
More Small Dining Rooms Also Favored in Committee's Preliminary Report
A special committee headed by Professor George S. Shand, has made a preliminary report on plans to Chancellor E. H. Lindley, president of the Memorial Corporation. The present investigation indicates that the proposed plan will allow a larger building than the tentative plans provided for.
The following preliminary recom mendations were made:
1. Using the tentative plans as prepared by Professor Goldsmith as a basis, the total contents would be increased in such proportions as the apparent reduction in building costs will permit, allowing all of the prepeed $500,000 to be used for the building proper, it being assumed that equipment cost will be taken care of in addition to the $500,000.
Request the architect to outline general plans covering first extensions to the building in as far as these can be reasonably anticipated for the not too far distant future. A swimming pool appears to be one of the first features for consideration in an extended Union.
3. Request the architect to examine into the feasibility of so arranging the building as to admit of the possible combination of the large and small social halls into one room for special occasions.
4. Provide more adequately for small dining room service through the installation of a group of rooms

which may be used singly or opened into larger dining spaces. A minimum of four such units, each accommodating 30 to 40 people is suggested. One dining room should be set aside for use of the Chancellor, to be available for others only in the event it is not needed by him.
5. Reduce the space proposed for campus societies to not less than four rooms of the same general character as provided for in the tentative plans for recommendation seven will call for saving of space at some points.
6. Provide for Y, W, C, A, and Y,
M, C, A. offices in some part of the
building.
7. Provide more adequately for the ladies of the University as follows:
a. Parlor space corresponding to proposed parlor to be used as girls' lounging and reception room and to establish character than tentative parlor plans.
Add a small kitchenette where girls may prepare tea and very light lunches; provide more cloak rooms than in the tentative plains and so arranged. Remove the door from the side entrance to the main office without going through the parlor. Add a parlor if feasible. b. There is proposed for the sec-
b. There is proposed for the second floor:
A "rest room" large enough to accommodate 12 cots, this room to be located in a quiet section of the building.
A smaller "parlor" for girls recep-
things and in compaction with the space there should be provided two kitchenettes, of a total floor space of not less than 300 square feet. An office room to accommodate about 20 students to be used by girl's campus societies.
c. On the third floor there might be provided:
A sewing and pressing room to accommodate two sewing machines and four pressing stands with proper space allowance for such equipment. A dressing room equipped with at least ten lavatories and mirrors, six to eight toilet, and shampooing and manicuring parlors.
The committee emphasized in its report that these recommendations are tentative, and that changes may be drawn in the drawing of definite plans.
