Steam whistle valve restored; classes ending on schedule
A University of Kansas tradition returned from a forced vacation yesterday at 1:20 p.m.
The steam whistle, which signals the end of class, sounded yesterday for the first time in almost a week. The whistle had been out of commission because the valve that lets steam pass through the whistle was broken.
Maggie Newcomer
Workers climbed to the roof of the power plant behind Watson Library early yesterday in hopes the valve would be repaired by the afternoon.
George Cone, assistant director of central heating for Facilities Operations, explained that a timer, called an actuator, tells the valve when to open. The timer was malfunctioning, not the whistle itself, he said.
The whistle was replaced last spring when the original ran out of steam after 91 years. The steam whistle has been a part of life on Mount Oread since 1912 and was laid to rest in the Kansas Union. An anonymous donor funded the new whistle after reading about its death.
It was, and Cone said the whistle would have been blowing sooner, but they had to find new parts for the valve.
