The University heating system is to be extended to greater parts of the University. Digging has begun in the Yard for the construction of a pipe tunnel ten feet square. Contrary to all appearances, the digging that is taking place near University and Thayer Hall, is not being done to make a base for a new drive.
The new 2500 feet tunnel, connecting with the old one near Weld Hall, will run to and under Cambridge and Kirkland Streets, past the New Lecture Hall and the New Chemical Buildings and over to Langdell Hall. From there branch tunnels will lead to various other buildings in that vicinity.
The work in the Yard will be completed by Class Day, it was announced yesterday. The entre project will be finished by the beginning of school in the fall.
