WORKMEN REMOVE MENACE FROM WIGGLESWORTH ICE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Working furiously against the approaching winter's cold, the Maintenance Department has almost completed the installation of a steam-heat system for the gutter of Wigglesworth Hall. A long copper tube, running the length of the drain, will abolish once and for all the danger of falling icicles.

The new idea was put into effect as a result of injuries and near injuries which kept the residents of Wigglesworth in a state of continuous terror last winter. The steam outlets have been made through the roof by removing the slate, drilling until steam was struck in the maze of attic pipes, connecting the copper tube, and covering the hole in the roof again.
