PAGE SIX 1,500 Alumni Return For Class Reunions Over 1500 alumni returned to their alma mater last weekend to participate in the traditional class reunions and the 11th Annual Alumni Insti More than 100 "Pioneers Trash Collection Made Economical By New System A new system of refuse col-; lection has beeen inaugurate& on campus this week, Alfred E. Diem, vice president for business administration, said. The system, he said, will not only; improve sanitation but will pay; for itself in less than three years.? Refuse from campus buildings is now dumped into large steel containers, newly located at vari-, ous points on campus. The trash is gathered from these containers by a collection vehicle equipped' to automatically pick up the con-, tainers and compress and store' their contents. The equipment and special con tainers needed to place the sys tem into operation will cost about $65,000, but the annual savings are estimated at $25,000, Diem said. Collections are presently being made during the day in order to arrive at an efficient schedule, Henry L. Yeagley Jr., director of maintenance and utilities, said. Later, he said, collections will be made at night to eliminate the service trucks from campus roads during the busy daylight hours. Yeagley said the containers, which range in size four to six , cubic yards, are insect-proof, ro-1 dent-proof and fire-proof. Theyl will also eliminate the problems of overflowing trash cans and basement storage of trash, he said. The containers are located at sites convenient to the buildings they serve. They are located along streets and service drives so that they may be picked up automati cally. Initially, there will be 105 collection boxes at 85 locations. 370 Teachers to Enroli In '6l In-Service Institute More than 370 teachers of mathematics and science in Penn sylvania high schools are expect ed to enroll during the 1961-62 academic year in the In-Service Institute to be conducted by the University on its various cam puses and in other key areas throughout the state.
