Most of the lute equip ment with the exception of trucks remains in one place for several days. The trucks used for dirt hauling and the cement mixing trucks are heavy enough to get traction, the sunerintendent said.

Three of the dorms will be along Park Avenue while the din ing hall and the fourth dormitory will be constructed along Short lidge Road. • A recreation area, 224 feet by 100 feet, will run oarallel to Park Avenue next to the dorms. The large area will include four bas ketball courts. three tennis courts and , four handball courts. A spe cial area will. be set aside for horseshoe and softball pitching. Each of the L-shaped buildings will be divided into four living units. Two floors of each of the wings will compose one unit. The University Board of Trustees will assign a • separate name to each of the units. Each of the residence units will include 70 men and will have a residence counselor. The unit will have its own study lounee acces sible 'directly from one floor and by a stairwell from the second floor. All four units will have access to facilities in the basement of the building. The facilities will include a laundry, trunk storage and game rooms and a kitchenette for parties. Group to Study BusAd Courses In response to student com plaints about some accounting courses offered in the College of Business Administration, the col-' lege's student council has set up a committee to investigate the accounting curriculum. Members of the council were told by Chance Gorka, who is also a member of the Accounting Club, that a few of the accounting courses were poorly presented, in the - opinion of students. In ad dition, he charged, ttiese courses require too many work-hours for the credits and tend to overload students. The committee will include members of the council and the Accounting Club. The council also voted to offer a -limited orientation' program to new business administration stu dents coming to campus in the spring semester. .
