New System of Ventilation.

Many small improvements have been made in the buildings in the Yard during the past summer, the most important of which has been the installment of better systems of ventilation. In Appleton Chapel this has been accomplished by placing two large fans in the basement, one of which is used to introduce a supply of fresh air through six large inlets in different parts of the building, and the other to draw off the bad air through registers placed under all the pews. The fans in the Chapel have been in operation on two Sunday evenings this year and have proved very satisfactory. The Gore Hall Library has also been ventilated by a similar system. Electric lights have also been placed in Sever 11 and in Appleton Chapel.

These changes have been made in accordance with plans submitted by G. E. Densmore '94 and Gifford Le Clear '95.
