Bids to be taken for heat reducers
Bids for equipment which will allow KU's steam plant to heat more campus buildings are being accepted today in Topeka.
Keith Lawton, vice-chancellor for operations, said the bids are for "pressure-reducing stations" which will allow the heating plant to switch from low steam pressure to high pressure in the pipes leading underground to campus buildings:
ALL THE BUILDINGS along Jayhawk Blvd. and several others off campus, such as Allen Field House, New Robinson and some of the scholarship halls, receive steam from the heating plant, Lawton said.
"Several years ago we realized that we needed more heating capacity," he said, "so we installed

new boilers which are smaller and much more efficient. We now have enough capacity for all the buildings in our 10-year program, as we now see it.
RADIATORS USED inside the buildings will not withstand high pressure, Lawton said. The reducing stations will allow higher pressures to be used. As steam enters the buildings' heating systems, pressure will be decreased by the stations.
"But to get steam out to these buildings, we will need increased pressure to deliver it."
One station will probably be installed beneath each building, although one station might serve several buildings, Lawton said.

JUNE ENGINEERING GRADUATES
A Promise is only a Promise, but a CAREER is what YOU live with.
Right now, as a matriculating engineer, you are about to be romanced by some real giants of industry. The day of the athlete is giving way to that of the engineer. Listen to the tales of new R & D projects and to the beach stories about playground plant sites. Brother, you're ripe for the hook; but before you bite, listen to us.
Conductron engineers have the benefit of working for a "small" outfit (383 engineers and scientists) that does BIG business (our current backlog is $33 million). Our total employment grew from 1200 to almost 2000 in 1966.
CONDUCTRON-MISSOURI has grown to a predominant position in the commercial aircraft simulation market in less than two years, with contracts for 727, 737, DC-8 and DC-9 Jetliner Simulators. Our engineers earned their reputation by developing and manufacturing simulators for Mercury and Gemini, when we were a part of McDonnell. We're a volume hardware producer of avionics and ground support checkout equipment. We're involved in advanced communications and micro-electronic circuitry. And we've just entered the institutional field with PARAMETRON, the most flexible bio-medical critical monitoring device yet offered to hospitals.

What does this mean to you? Well, first you'll be known by far more men than those in your immediate groups, and you'll rub slide rules with top men on a project from the start. Second, you'll be reviewed for promotion by men who know your capabilities firsthand, rather than top-side administrators. But most of all, you'll know you've got a job, not a position. A job that's well paid, and meaty enough for you to sink your talents into juicy projects, if you stick.
In the next three years we must double our engineer personnel. Chance for promotion? You bet! Then perhaps you'll understand why 70% of the men we think are worth inviting to come look us over decide to stay.
We're located in suburban St. Charles, Mo., just 22 miles from downtown St. Louis with all the educational, cultural and recreational benefits of city life
