Page 3 Colder Weather On The Way But KU Will Be Ready Snappy mornings with cold winds from the north are causing a change at KU. The change is at the power plant, located across the street behind Watson Library. Engineers are getting ready for the inevitable thrust of chilling winds that whistle across Mt. Oread. All summer engineers supplied steam to Watkins Hospital, to the Student Union for cooking, and to laboratories in various buildings. Two 500 h.p. boilers have handled this load four months, but next week a 1,000 h.p. boiler will be fired. Each boiler is used four months before it must be cleaned, said W. C. Sanderson, superintendent of the plant. The water is treated and steam is blown through lines to keep them free of dirt. "One or two boilers are kept in readiness all the time," Sanderson said. "In emergency we can fire a 500 h.p. boiler in an hour and a half. Normally we take five hours to fire a small boiler and 10 hours for the 1,000 h.p. one." Steam is piped to buildings through tunnels which branch underground. Tunnels measure 5x7 feet. They are lighted by electric lights. "As a general rule, we have almost a perfect heating system," Sanderson said. "Steam lines were used underground before this plant was built, but the system wasn't modern even for that day." Employe 24 Years Sanderson has worked at the plant for 24 years. He came from the Lawrence Boiler Works to take charge of the boiler room. The plant had been built only nine years. There have been no emergencies except small leaks caused by contract and expansion of steam lines. A quarter-inch movement of the pipe will cause a break, Sanderson said, and added that a pipe is usually old and thin when it does break. Haugh To Attend Reading Workshop Oscar Haugh, professor of education, will be a resource consultant at a reading improvement workshop in Topeka Tuesday. The meeting, "The Invitational Conference of Science Research Associates," is sponsored by the Kansas State Teachers Assn. Prof. Haugh will serve at a discussion in the senior high school and college section. C.D.Hargadine, Lawrence graduate student, will also participate in the workshop. House Directors To Hold Conference Housemothers, head residents and house managers from Kansas colleges will hold their fourth annual conference Wednesday and Thursday in the Pine Room of the Student Union. Sessions will be from 9:30 to 11 a.m. and from 2 to 4 p.m. Dr. Margaret Habein, dean of instruction and student services at the University of Rochester, will conduct a series of discussions on "Common Problems of the Older Woman," "The House Director as a Person," "Educational Concepts of Group Life," "The Housemother's Relation to Her Group," "The Housemother's Role in Discipline," and "Resources and Aids Available to the Housemother." Michael To Speak Tuesday John L. Michael, assistant professor of psychology, will speak on "Psychotics and Vending Machines: A New Approach to the Study of Schizophrenia," at a meeting of the Psychology Club at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in Parler C of the Student Union. Illustrative slides will be shown and coffee will be served. The public is invited. Smith To Write Report Herbert A. Smith, professor of education, will prepare a 12,000 word report on research in science education for the Encyclopedia of Educational Research. The Encyclopedia will come out in 1960. Boilers are fired by gas. Four storage tanks of crude oil are ready for emergency use in case the gas fails Sanderson said. One tank in the plant holds 4,000 gallons of oil and a tank south of the plant holds 70,000 gallons. Two tanks located at 19th and Michigan each hold 400,000 gallons. Symphony Series Opens The first appearance of the KU Little Symphony, directed by Thomas Gorton, dean of the School of Fine Arts, is scheduled for 8 p.m. Wednesday, in Strong Auditorium. Open to the public without charge, the concert will feature the work of Shostakovich, Handel, Bach and Sibelius. In the "Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in C Minor" by Shostakovich, Roy Hamlin Johnson, assistant professor of piano, and Edward Masters, assistant professor of band and orchestra, will be featured soloists. Raymond Cerif, professor of violin, George Green, instructor of music theory, and Sue Gewinner, Webster Groves, Mo., senior, will be soloists in the "Concerto in G Major, Op. 1" by Handel. The other two numbers on the program will be "Symphony in B Flat Major" by Bach and the symphonic suite from "Pelleas and Melisande" by Sibelius. Grad To Study Foreign Trade A graduate of KU has enrolled in the June, 1957, class of the American institute for Foreign Trade, Phoenix, Ariz. William Withers, who received a bachelor of arts degree in 1954, will take the school's training course for a career in American government or business abroad.

Balloon Bursting Jayhawk Room Student Union MEETING TONIGHT 7:30 p.m. UNIVERSITY VETERAN'S ORGANIZATION Using a parking lot drag-strip and obstacle course, the Jayhawk Sport Car Club lacked only bleachers and popcorn as almost 200 persons came and went during the 3-hour, 3-event "gymkhana." In one event, the slalom, a driver runs against time by driving an "S" pattern around pylons. The pylons, in this case, were heavy paper sacks with a bit of sand inside. A third event was "parking and garaging." Stopping in a specified space, a driver must back into six different areas marked by pylons. "It's not necessary to own a sport car or any car to join the club," Sheldon said. "Just have the interest. We're not the smobbish type." In another event, balloon bursting, the navigator—sitting beside the driver—tries to break balloons with a short, wooden lance. The balloons are tied to the pylons. A team is penalized five seconds for not breaking a balloon. Judging from the interest shown by spectators as 28 colorful cars wheeled through the events, a newcomer wouldn't be disappointed. A "gymkhana" is a standard sport car meet having several events, Joe E. Sheldon, president and Lawrence senior, explained. A 5-second penalty is given to any driver for hitting any pylon during the gymkhana. Winners of Sunday's meet were: Winners of Sunday's meet were: Jerry Lacey, Topeka high senior, driving an MG, 91 seconds; Paul A. Brown, Kansas City, Mo. freshman, driving an MG, 96 seconds, and Roger K. Moffet, Norton freshman, driving a Jaguar, 98 seconds. High point man wins a trophy, Sheldon said. If he wins three years in a row, he keeps the trophy. The time in seconds is cumulative for the three events, Sheldon said. The top man gets points for each car entered, and the next man one point less and so on. Each man entered in the meet receives at least one point. "The MG seems to be the favorite car," Shieldon said. "It is commonly used. The Jaguar ranks second." "Disquises of Harlequin," a series of pantings devoted to the escapades of the Italian comedy figure is the current exhibition at the Museum of Art. The exhibition, the first ever held of works by the 18th century Florentine, Giovanni Domenico Ferretti, is displayed in conjunction with the presentation of Goldoni's "Servant of Two Masters." The display is a loan from the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art of Sarasota, Fla. Italian Paintings Shown In Museum The janissaries, picked troops of the early Ottoman Empire, were recruited from captive Christian children who were reared in the Mohammedan faith.
