Plans to recommend construction of a new Massachusetts Street bridge over the Kansas River were announced Friday by Buford Watson, city manger.
New Bridge Needed City Manager Says
The bridge should be rebuilt and not structurally repaired as originally planned, according to a report from Finney and Topeka engineering consultants.
Considerable deterioration and sloughing-off of concrete were given in the report as reasons for the recommendation, Watson said.
The Finney and Turnipseed report was based on an extensive above-water investigation and included 51 photographs of deteriorated areas on the bridge. Exposed material within concrete was cracked and照片 was visible in several of the photographs.

Detailed cost estimates and further explanation for recommendation of a new bridge will be made available in a final report. Bridge companies pressed. The report is expected this week.

stimulating students and excellence in the general field of education."
The HOPE award was founded by the 1959 graduating class, which gave a $2,000 endowment for the award to the University as their senior class gift. The yearly interest from the endowment makes up the cash award given to the winner.
Recipients of the award for the last five years are ineligible for the award this year. The following faculty members are ineligible for nomination: Dennis Quinn, professor of business; Elizabeth Schultz, English; Clark Bricker, professor of chemistry; John B. Brenner, professor of journalism; Arno Knapper, associate professor of business; Elizabeth Schultz, associate professor of English; and John B. Brenner, associate professor of speech and drama.
The nominations will be totaled and the list narrowed to 25. Voting will take place at the senior regalia party from 3 to 5:30 p.m. Friday in the cafeteria area of the Kansas Union. The vote and the party will be open to senior class card holders. Other seniors who wish to vote will be required to pay a 50 cent privilege fee.
