If the women's gym and maintenance department hadn't burned

cool comfort of air conditioning in
the Union building today.
The fire burned the necessary
material to install air conditioning In the Union, said Mr. E. B.

maintenance and operation. Since
then all materials except copper
tubing have become available. Until this tubing can be obtained

These buildings will not be ready

The plans for a new service and

medical technologists offering salaries ranging from $175 a month

Dr.
Scherago terms the need for such

Irish Girl To Attend UK
By Pat Burnett
The wartime friendship
of an I
American soldier and an Irish
girl has resulted in a year's free
education at the University for the
girl.
The soldier, killed on Armistice
Day, 1942, asked his mother in
his last letter to keep in touch with
a girl he had met in Ireland. In
another letter he asked the girl to
make the trip to America to see his
family. After four years the visit

psychologists
for
the agency's

The

Designed
primarily
to benefit
veterans, the plan will allow

the VA will pay for the part-tim- e

Dean Jones said that all students should find rooms before'
entering the University and that
no student should enroll
before
finding a place to stay.
The peak of the veteran enrollment should be over with the registration for the fall quarter and
the future University enrollment
is expected to remain at approximately 5,000 students. Dean Jones
said.

An agent from
the Federal
Housing Administration visited the
Cniversity Wednesday and stated
that the government was preparing to move several Army barracks
to the University which will be
made into rooms large enough to
accommodate about 500 veterans.
Dean Jones said, predicting that
they would be ready to meet the

to be erected near the University
