A million-dollar project is underway at the Kansas Union to add an auditorium, more bookstore space, a tunnel and additional alumni offices.
Construction at Kansas Union will add room and convenience
The auditorium, designed by Robert Mann, a Hutchinson architect, will seat 670 people. Its sloped floor, stage, movie accommodations and conference areas will closely resemble University Theatre. It will be located on the second floor of the Union.
Additions to the bookstore, which will be in the Union basement, will serve mainly as a "relief valve" for more paperback and trade books, and art supplies, said Frank Burge, Union director.
Alumni offices will be on the Union's first floor.
The tunnel, to be provided with heating, lighting, and carpeting will serve as a haven in bad weather.
B. A. Green Construction Co., Lawrence, has worked on the project since April 1968. Pat
