Old Main Clock
Sits With Time
On Its Hands •
New students .on campus may!
be interested in knowing that the!
chimes atop Old Main used to;
ring every 15 minutes in times!
gone by and that the clock usual
ly showed the correct time.
However, not only have the ]
chimes stopped tolling, but the
[ clock shows an incorrect time. It
,has read 8:25 for the last several
'days.
What seems even worse than
'this is that no one seems to be
doing anything to correct the sit
uation.
R. W. Knouse, utilities project
engineer in charge of the system,
is out of town now but last week
said that something may be
wrong with the clock's mechan
ism or maybe someone turned it
; off and it wasn't turned back on.
IHe was referring to the electrical
'system that operates the time
piece.
The clock is turned off when
ever a program is being held in
