TIM, the State College. Chamber of Commerce and the Centre Dai ly Times. The purpose of the survey, ac cording to William G. Mather, head of the Department of Soci ology and Anthropology, is to make a general study of the hous ing situation in the town in re gard to the nature and conditions of the available apartments and rooms. Mather has been asked to head a group for drawing up the questionnaires which will be used for the survey. The specific conditions suggest ed by Mather include the facili ties of available housing, its loca tion, whether it is on a commer cial or private home basis and the preferences of the owner in regard to the race, religion, eth nic background and marital sta tus of the tenants. - Representatives of Alpha Phi Omega, SGA.

A building with curtain wall construction, explained McLaugh lin, is built so that each floor sup ports itself by vertical highbeams called mullions. This leaves no job for the walls to do but to keep out the elements. On Hammond the silver-colored aluminum upright beams are the mullions which support the en tre building, McLaughlin said. The experimental engineering .department tested the metal and glass materials now being used to construct the skyscraper in Montreal's Place Ville Marie. The department set up a full scale mock-up of a metal and glass curtain on which tests for the movement of the mullions, tests for the insulatidn of the ma terials and for any leaks that might develop in driving rain storms were made, McLaughlin reported. A "hanging wall" building can easily be identified by its char acteristic arrangement of ex terior finishings, he continued. The building will have alternat ing bands of glass and metal panes if it uses the "hanging wall' prin ciple, he emphasized.
