Included in the renovation pro gram was the redecorating of the Union ballroom on second floor. All walls were painted and the woodwork done in squirrel gray. Columns on the walls were ac cented. In the main lounge, walls were painted and moldings con structed for art work- displays which will be shown continually. 9-Foot Piano One major addition in equip ment was the purchase of a 9 foot Steinway concert grand piano, which will be delivered next month. It is the only one at the University. The major staff change is the new position of assistant- direc tor which is taken by Roger T. Larson. His office is Room 1, Union. Larson was at Omaha Answering last year's cam paign for an addition to the city Union and a new Ag Union, plans are being formulated for completion of the improvements, according to Duane Lake, Union director. Major contribution during the summer was the preliminary survey of both campuses by the consulting architect, Michael Hare of New York City and Lake. Hare's visit, which was in the latter part of July, resulted in drafting of preliminary plans in regard to location, cost and fa cilities. Architect Advises Viewing the war in Korea, which has resulted in increased costs and shortage of materials. Hare advised that if anything were done immediately that it be construction of the Jnion on Ag campus. Lake explained that the specialized labor and steel necessary for an addition to the city Union would be considerably university last year organizing harder to get in comparison to Union activities. He was previ ously at the University Larson will have charge of Union per sonnel. Like a Club Lake pointed out that other chances in oreanization have the material needed fo:- the ranch style Ag Union. H; said overcome before we start build ing," said the director. Plans Progressing Plans will be continued until complete so they will be ready when actual building can begin, lake said he had been advised to go ahead and start if labor and materials can be obtained. Lake stressed that students Union facilities at their disposal, and enrollment ' will probably reach only about 8200. Estimated costs would de decrease considerably- if space per student would be 13.1. Lake hopes that final plans will give about 15 square foot per student. In the proposals placed before students last year facility ad- will be kept notified at all times ! ditions would be made in three on each development. A meeting ' categories, recreational, service is planned soon to discussion current problems concerning im mediate construction.
