Jorgensen, a professor of physics at the University of Nebraska, and his wife de signed and built their own home. They designed the eaves of the house so that in the sum mer the minimum amount of sun strikes the large windows which form the south wall of the house. In the winter the earth is at a different angle to the sun, and the long rays reach across the room, warm ing it. On the shortest day of winter, the maximum amount of sun shines in their house. Saves Heat The windows have a double pane which reduces the heat loss. Air is a poor conductor of heat, said Jorgenson, and the air trapped between the two panes of glass prevents transfer of heat from the in side to the outside. Light passes through the window and strikes a slate floor which absorbs energy, the energy is radiated from the floor as heat. Under neat the slate is a tile base which won't conduct the heat, so the heat is returned throught the room. Because the sun's light caused the heat, the room Is heated by the sun. Professor Jorgensen chose blue-gray slate for his floors because it radiates and con ducts heat well. He added that it had housekeeping ad vantages, too, because mop ping was the only cleaning necessary. Under the floor lies one half inch copper tubing filled with water. This water is warmed and helps to main tain a uniform temperature. The tubes are laid six inches apart underneath the heated area of the house. On a cold day the temperature of the water may rise to a little Porter to Teach Bridge in Union Free bridge lessons under the supervision of James G.

The hollow tile prevenis heat transferal into the earth. When the temperature drops below the desired lev el, a thermostatically con trolled furnace warms the water, which is circulated through the tubing by a small pump. Once the heat is inside the house, it does not escape. The house has a double brick out side wall 10 inches thick with an air cavity in the middle. The cavity is filled with fiber glass insulator. Repell Heat, Too ' Under the roof Jorgenson placed aluminum foil above the rafters. In the summer time it acts as a barrier to help keep out the sun's heat. The house can De cooiea by running cold water through the copper pipes under the floor in the sum mer. Most of the time this is not really necessary, Jor gensen said, because with the use of a heavy fan to the Indian Suite. Trophies will be awarded to the winners.

A planimeter will be used io measure the irregular sur faces of the cookies after they have been baked. Otherwise regular kitchen utensils are used unless they will not ful fill the need of the experi menter. Accurate Measurements All measuring of ingredi dients in these experiments is done either in gram weights for solids or in a graduated cylinder for li quids. This insures accuracy, Dr. Brooks explained. Ingre dients are weighed more than once for exactness and each product is weighed before and after cooking.

Jor gensen uses gas for Chinese cooking because he can reg ulate the heat more easily. A small greenhouse is In cluded in the house. Inside this greenhouse he grows . many plants, including win ter roses. His study is near the greenhouse so that when he pauses in his work he can tend his flowers. Storage space, which holds a "truckload" of things, ac cording to Jorgensen, opens off the porch. The storage space extends into the garage and the hood of the car fits under the bottom of it. "I utilized all the space," said Jorgenson. The coat closet, which is recessed in the all, fits into storage closets-which line a bedroom wall on the other side. "We have never really filled our storage space," said Jorgensen. Both bedrooms, cost. The problem iinvolved here is how much powdered cream is needed to replace liquid cream and what ef fect the Pream has on the consistency of the cara mels, said a dietetics major while stirring the bubbling caramel mixture. A problem involving dry milk in biscuit and muffin recipes is also being studied. The girl working on this prob lem expected that adding the extra solids in place of liquid milk will cause terrific tun nels in muffins and cause tough biscuits. When she took them from the oven, she noted the course texture of the test biscuits and muffins in comparison to the control products which were made according to an ordinary recipe.

He added, "It's the type of house more professors ought to build to give students an idea of how to put theory to I work." is trying to maintain the same texture of the custard but cut down the number of eggs needed. She is making her own brown sugar syrup for the caramel flavor and is using Carnation condensed milk "because that is the only brand available in the Philip pine Islands," she said. A honey-orange juice cake is the aim of one of the home economics majors in the class. She is replacing the sugar with honey and - the milk with orange juice. Since honey contains liquid, she will try different amounts in place of the original amount of su gar, she explained. Each girl is working with one individual problem, but the methods and experience she gains in the process will be valuable in her future work with foods, said Dr. Brooke. "Young Thesis" This work is good training in research, she said, for each girl must write a "young the sis" on what she has done. This must include the result of each day's work, a short report on material written about the ingredients she has used, score sheets of each sample, results and conclu sions and a summary of her work, Dr. Brooks said. Students must have a chem istry background to take this course. Dr. Brooks explained that the class does not have enough time to . repeat and confirm their findings, but the girls get satisfaction from working out these problems. A recipe may have two or three variables, but only one ingredient may be varied at a time, Dr. Brooks said, or ulthe- results cannot be ac credited to a particular cause. Reading Suggestions Aid Individual, African Study Compiled by the staff of Love Memorial Library, the studies on the following list are planned to acquaint the interested reader with the foundations of modern Africa.

Education Committed To What? Continued from Page 1 known," Shapiro said, were all students of the. humanities as well as specialists. According to Bates, the time for specialization is near the crux of the prob lem. In the social sciences, he said, "we don't expect to be professionals without graduate study." -With the fellowships and grants available today, Bates said, almost any student who can complete four years of college can afford to stay in school for graduate study. Social science majors, ha added, have as broad a lib eral education as any Uni versity students and often' broader than majors in the humanities. "Second-rate Literature" This i s partially due, ho felt, to the fact that students and professors of the "hu manities may take social sci ences as a second-rate liter ature." The difference between humanities and social sci ences, he emphasized, is of method more than materi al: social sciences are based upon the scientific method, but deal with material more common to the humanities. But Bates does not see one area of study as a substitute for another. With Hobson ard Shapiro, he agreed that no one field is broad enough for a liberal education to be taken from it alone. What Kind of Education? The question remains "commitment to what kind of education?" How much knowledge in one area should we sacrifice, for how much knowledge in another area? Is an educated man one with a broad background in all the humanities and in the sciences, as Shapiro suggests, or one who is introduced to the humanities and sciences as well as his specialty and shown how to obtain more information for himself if he wants it? To what kind of education should we be committed? Watch Repair on Campus 1-2 Day Service DICK'S WATCH SERVICE in Pedefi' Bookstore AcrntM Street From Love Library
