Under actual war conditions,
enemy prisoners are largely hand
led by Military Police troops,
whose duty it is to control, house
and feed them, and otherwise
maintain them during the length
of hostilities. Military Police are
carefully trained in this work, and
they are putting their training in

will begin as soon ae specifications

essary funds to supplement In
surance ceverage are raised, and
bids are secured. Dr. Luther L.
Gobbel, president of the college
has announced.
Tentative plans drawn by J.
Burton Wilder, local - architect,
and Philip N. Youtz, consulting
architect, Mlddlefleld. Mass., pro
vide for replacing the old rotunda
with a rectangular, three-story
unit which will not project quite
as great a distance as the rotunda.
The new portion of Main building
howerver, will be made more spac
ious than the old structure by the
removal of the senior parlor and
the creation of one large studept
social center on the ground floor
measuring ppproximately 48 by
54 feet, and flanked by the two
drawing rooms now located in the
east and west wings of the build
ing. One group of fireproof stairs
enclosed in masonary and running
from the ground to the roof will
replace the two front, stairways
which rise on each side of the
present social center. Six dormi
tory rooms will he built on each
sido of the present social center.
Plans also include the extension of
the automatic sprinkler system
throughout the proposed structure.
Although no detailed descrip
tion of plans win he available un

tions to the building committee
appointed by the board of trust

will be in classic Greek tradition
