The dimensions of the building could not be reduced accordingly without producing a structure wholly inadequate in essential features. The classrooms and offices were omitted and it is to restore these necessary features that this request is made. (b) Recitation and Departmental Building, $300,000.00 Permanent provision has not thus far been made in our building scheme for the training of teachers of Home Economics, Commercial Subjects, and Music. Standard classrooms have thus far been used in the Science and Administration buildings to house these departments- These rooms are now imperatively needed for regular classes and either a complete recitation building or a departmental building is necessary to accommodate the students which we now have. We believe the situation would be best solved by constructing a building of the type requested- (c) Combined Dormitory and Gymnasium for Women, $400,000.00 The most persistent demand in colleges where a large part of the students are women is adequate dormitory accommodations- We need double the capacity we now have- Our plan in making this request is to combine a dormitory and a gymnasium under the same roof, but so arranged as to cause no interference. Another gymnasium for instruction and classroom purposes will fill a long felt 18 BEE GEE NEWS want. This combination will be both economical and convenient, and meet a double need of the school. (d) Power House Improvements and Equipment, $60,000.00 This request includes generators, engine, switchboard, ash conveyor, office space, storage space, remodeling, etc., but the major items would be generators and engine for producing electric current for the buildings and grounds. By utilizing the exhaust steam for heating purposes, there would be a saving on current for light and power that would justify the investment by the State. G-32 OTHER CAPITAL OUTLAY (a) Rebuilding Old Tunnels, etc, $60,000.00 Rebuilding of old tunnels and building new tunnels to Recitation and De- partmental Building, $60,000-00.
