The next session will start January 2, of next year.
Republican House Leader Charles
Halleck of Indiana told representatives that a main reason for failure
to push the subsistence allowance
boost was prospect of a veto. Democrats denied President Harry Truman had indicated any such intention. The measure woulld have increased allowances from $65 to $75

a month for married men, and $90

The president said that all points
were not direct criticisms of the University. In fact, he stated that many
sections were devoted to commendation of certain procedures all already in effect.
Each topic is being considered individually and is passed for adoption
or rejected because of triviality,
or limitations of state
constitution.
Two Points Stressed
Two points of the report he stressed particularly, adding that he hoped
the report would Impress upon the
people the gravity of the situation.
They were the shortage in educators
and the need of an even more extensive building program. Both problems
could be solved by larger state appropriations, he asserted.
"We will require ten million dollars
for buildings and an increase in the
annual appropriation of approximately a million and ohe half per
year," the president announced.
The report read in part: "At first
it was thought that the essential
buildings could be constructed for
$8,000,000. This would be sufficient
to construct a number of the most
essential buildings, but it would not
be adequate at present costs of
materials and labor, to supply all of
the desirable additional facilities
and replacement of several old build
ings that are too dangerous for
further use."

225 Maintenance Employees
Keep University Running
By Sam Brents

The
"men behind the men" at the University are
the 225 employees of the division of
maintenance and operations who
put in around 50,000 hours a month
just to keep the school running.
This man-hototal does not include the time spent on major construction jobs on the campus since
they are let out by contract to private firms. It's the routine housekeeping duties such as janitor service, grass mowing, policing the
grounds, and repair of buildi.'"is n;v1
equipment that require most of the
time and effort spent by this departed

Pencil Sharpeners To Field House
Head of the division is E. B. Far-ri- s.
chief engineer of the University,
who may be found ordering pencil
sharpeners or taking bids on a
$3,000,000 field house. If not this,
he may be out on the campus inspecting one of several buildings being constructed under his supervision, or visiting one of the shops
which his department maintains and
which, since the service building fire
last year, are scattered over the
campus.
Following the fire, the administrative and clerical personnel sought
refuge in the geology museum on
