Bare for 24 years, the front pediment of Baker Library will get the carved-in Business School seal that was originally included in its plans, Clifford A. Foster, Superintendent of the School Buildings and Grounds, disclosed yesterday.

A 1949 grant from the George F. Baker Trust has provided the money to carve the seal--a project which will cost an estimated $8,000. When the library was erected in 1926, the necessity for economics eliminated this decoration.

After the nine sections of the carving are assembled, its base will be 44 feet long, and its center will be nine feet high. Original blueprints called for a ship in the center of the ornament, because no Business School shield then existed. But the new carving will have a shield six by five feet in the middle.
