Don't Know What To Expect

"Forty per cent of the peo

Griesemer, director and nar
rator of the Mueller Plane

Griesemer explained that
some people expect to see
plants growing or expect that
the roof will be rolled back
and they will view the skies
out in the open air.

"The recital hall when com
pleted will be of the latest and
most approved design," ac
cording to the bulletin of the
School of Music, published in
1895, a year after the build
ing's completion.
That's just how long the
School of Music has been wait
ing for improvements, accord
ing to Professor Emanuel
Wishnow, Chairman of the de
partment of music.
Since the 1930's when the
School of Music was officially
acquired by the University, it
has been given priority rating
in the appropriation of build
ing funds several times, Wish
now said.
"Our hopes soared high and
were dashed low," he added,
until in 1964 the funds were
appropriated and the plan
ning for the new building be
Igan. . Construction of the new
! building began June 21. as
bulldozers moved in to clear
the sight on the southwest cor
ner of 11th and R Sts.
The streets around the con-
j struction site have been
i blocked off and will remain
; that way, according to Noel
L. Smith, University construc
j tion engineer. The new struc
ture, Smith said, will extend
into both streets. Two cul-de-saces,
courts to enable cars to
make U turns, will be con
structed on R St. and one on
11th.
The cost of the structure,
designed by architects Hazen
and Robinson, will be about
$1,156,000, according to Smith.
Olson Construction Co. is the
contractor.
The new building, which
will be air-conditioned and
sound proofed, was begun be
cause nothing could be done in
the old building, to expand.
Its condition and the large
numbers of students made it
necessary, Smith said.

now commented, "people have
been telling us that we should
employ a full time plasterer
to make the necessary re
pairs." The fire marshall
has ordered constant improve
ments, he added.
"At present, classrooms are
overcrowded and practice
rooms are too few," Wishnow
continued. Because of the
limited space, classes are
much larger than we would
like them to be, he added.
The new building has been
designed to meet these prob
lems of space and overcrowd
ed facilities, according to
Wishnow. It will contain 30
faculty teaching studios, ten
graduate studios, 50 practice
rooms, and five large class
rooms.
Four large rehearsal rooms,
two seating 150 instrumental
ists; one choral room seating
300 and an ensemble room
seating 50 will be on the
ground floor.
The conservatory, or recital
hall, which will be constructed
upon completion of the new
building in 1966, will contain
larger rehearsal rooms and a
recital hall seating 850, ac
cording to Wishnow.

mend a co-ordinated program
of flood-control development.
But the program was to be
unco-ordinated for some time.
The Army Corps of Engineers
and the Soil Conservation
Service under the Department
of Agriculture developed sep
arate flood-control plans
based on different reasoning.
The Corps of Engineers was
most concerned with protect
ing the great number of people
and the property in Lincoln.
Thus the Corps plan was to
construct large dams and to!
do major channel work most
ly in the immediate vicinity
of Lincoln to prevent future
floods.
The Soil Conservation Serv
ice plan was focused on rural
areas. A system of small
dams and other retaining
structures plus the introduc
tion of conservation measures
miles upstream from Lincoln
and other cities would slow
down runoff and thus nrovide
the best means of flood pre
vention, the SCS reasoned.
Both plans were released
within months of each other.
Members of both azencies
praised their own plan and
criticized the other agency's
plan.
The co-operation that had
been hoped for never materia
lized. Ten years passed.
Then in 1960, under the
leadership of the Salt-Wahoo
Watershed Association and
other civic-minded groups, a
co-ordinated plan was worked
out. Voters in the newly
formed Salt-Wahoo Watershed
District overwhelmingly ap
proved a three-quarter mill
levy on all real and personal
property to provide funds.
As the co-ordinated plan is
being executed, Hal Schroe
der and his associates are
confident that the completed
Salt-Wahoo Watershed de
velopment will cut down the
number of floods in the basin.
For the 97 floods on Salt
Creek and its tributaries be
tween 1900 and 1953 sixteen
of which were major disasters
were too many, Schroeder
believes.
