shut off from the? rest of the building. It is planned to install a generator patterned after the one in use at the University of Wisconsin. Distribution is to be made through a 500-gallon gas tank in order that the pressure of the gas may be as constant as possiSTEAM is supplied from the university power house, through the service tunnel. The heating system is run under four pounds pressure; the supply for the Low TEMPERATURE COKING APPARATUS steam baths and laboratories is under a pressure of 15 lbs.; the high-pressure system is run at 30 lbs. VACUUM is furnished by a 14 X 8 in. vacuum pump in the machine room, which gives a vacuum equal to from 16 to 20 in. of mercury. In many of the research rooms and some of the student laboratories a special vacuum system is available which produces an exhaustion equivalent to 1 millimeter of mercury. 54
