CELLOPHANE PLUS BURLAP USED IN COLLEGE BUILDING

During the construction of the Memorial Chapel and the new portion of Adams House, an unusual kind of material is being used in the windows until the glass can be put in. Instead of the customary cheese-cloth, a material made of cellophane reinforced with burlap is in use to keep out the rain and snow, and make the buildings canier to heat during the process of construction. It is similar to the material used in shipping coffee from South American ports.

Another novelty in the construction of the new portion of Adams House is the use of a rougher type of plaster than that used in the other Houses.
