Lancaster
To Test NU
Med By-Laws
A trend thruout the nation,
whereby university hospitals are
looking for means to supplement
their budgets, is being followed
in Nebraska.
Board of Regents of the Uni
versity adopted a by-law this
spring which provides that the
counties will pay for expensive
medicines used in caring for the
patients from their area. The by
law adopted under the Nebraska
statute gives the Board of
Regents authority to lay down
rules for admission to the uni
versity hospital.
First claim filed in Nebraska
has been filed against Lancaster
county. It was discussed at a
meeting of the board of commis
sioners. The bill of $394)7 is for
medicines used in treatment of
Lancaster county patients at the
hospital. The board tabled the
claim, after deciding that repre
sentatives from the Board of
Regents, their attorney and the
county attorney should be noti
fied to appear before the next
meeting of the commissioners.
R. W. DeVoe, president of the
Board of Regents, said that if
the county disallows the claim,
the Board will appeal it to the
district court

Five Campus
Buildings Boast
Air Cooling
Want to cool off? The places to
go on the campus are the Library,
Union, or Burnett! These buildings
along with the Administration
building and the Student Health
Center are among those which
have been air-conditioned. The
Social Science hall air-conditioning
unit is to be completed this
week.
These six buildings are the only
ones that can be air-conditioned
with the present cooling system
which consists of two vacuum
condensers in the University Pow
er plant. The 200 and 400 ton jet
condensers use the steam that has
already been used to produce the
electricity. The water is circula
ted to the buildings and back
again by a 125 horse power water
pump liberating 75.000 cu. ft. per
minute of water through 14 inch
pipes to Burnett hall where the
pipes are reduced to 8 and 6 inches
for further distribution. The pipes
are insulated with cork; hence
there is little temperature rise be
tween the plant and the coils.
Heat Wave.
During the last heat wave the
water passed through the coils at
40 degrees and came back to the
plant at 48 degrees. The coils were
extracting 4,000 BTU per hour of
heat from these building except
the Social Science hall.
Teachers College, Bessey hall,
Andrews hall, and Morrill hall
are not designed for air-condition
ing but the building and grounds
committee is working on plans for
the systems.
A new system has been devel
oped which is being investigated:
Small pipes would be placed in
each room and the cooling equip
ment would be placed in a small
closet in the room.
The new buildings that are to
be built on the campus are de
signed for air-conditioned venti
lation. But the dream will not be
realized until the university can
get enough money to finance more
condensers.
