Pollock 5 Is
Failing Down,
Falling Down
Since mid-summer students
walking past th e Pollock
dorms have been witness to
Penn State's version of the
nursery rhyme, "London Bridge is
Falling Down."
Sections of the brick and lime
stone facing above the ground
floor of Pollock 5 are missing,
creating what many area residents
call an unsightly appearance.
Walter Wiegand, Director of
the Physical Plant, said the
damage does not stem from a
structural defect, but was
caused by improper installation
of the brick and limestone by
the contractor.
Director of Housing, Otto Muel
ler, said that damage stemmed
from the contractor making an
error in following the architect's
specifications. The error caused
an excessive amount of weight to
be supported by the facing, caus
ing it to crack. Due to the danger
of the facing falling on passers
by it was removed, he said.
The contractor is reported to be
waiting for new limestone to re
pair the damage but does not
know when the repairs will be
completed.

speciality controlled cycling

published in the Aug. 7 issue of
Chemical Engineering, was titled
"Some Common Errors in Thermo
dynamics." The others were pub

entered the competition, she said.
Miss Leight said she hoped
