It was this earlier decision of the department which kept closed the new buildings at the local teachers college during the centennial celebration, causing a shift in plans and removing from the list the dedication of the buildings. Small Items Unfinished Dr. Clarence E. Ackley, acting superintendent of public instruction, said work still remaining to be done included things "the contractor may have overlooked" and would entail little or extra cost to the commonwealth. The department until today had refused to accept the projects???improvements and additions to State Teachers' Colleges???on the grounds they were "incomplete." Capt. Roger Rowland, secretary of property and supplies, conferred with Dr. Ackley and Dr. Hubert Eicher, chief of the school plant division in the public instruction department, and an agreement was reached. Rowland, a member of the authority, signed the leases last week to save the authority from defaulting its $300,000 June 15 interest payment to the state retirement fund, which holds authority bonds. He explained signing of the leases permitted the state to pay the first rental installment to the authority. Rowland also accepted as substantially complete several projects at welfare department institutions. Acceptances Listed Construction in that department, making up 61 per cent of the authority's program and totaling about $31,- 000,000, was criticized by E. Arthur Sweeny, secretary of welfare. Rowland agreed with Sweeny and the department of public instruction that scores of items were yet to be completed. He estimated with Sweeny that it would cost about $2,000,000 to remedy construction faults on welfare buildings alone. The authority board, headed by Governor James, met today but took no action on the criticism. Ackley and Eicher subitted to Rowland a list of minor items still incomplete at 15 institutions. They were State Teachers' Colleges at Bloomsburg, California, Cheyney, Clarion, East Strodusburg, Edinboro, Indiana, Kutztown, Lock Haven, Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg. Slip- pery Rock; the State Oral School at Scranton, and Thaddeus Stevens Industrial School, Lancaster. Rowland said he did not know where the state would get the $2,000,- I 000 to fix up welfare buildings, and said the state would have to spend $6,- 000,000 to equip the buildings after it ! accepts them. Prof. and Mrs. Reams Return from 2,200-Mile Trip Through Southland ~&* Prof, and Mrs. E. A. Reams, of College Hill, have returned from a 2200- mile, ten-day motor trip to Athens, Ga.,where they accompanied Miss Ermine Stanton who will make her home in that city. The motorists drove over the Skyline Drive and stopped at Monticello and Winston-Salem and then over the highway following the westward trail made by Daniel Boone for land promoters before the Revolution. Magnificent scenery was enjoyed during this part of the trip, Prof. Reams explained, adding the road reaches an elevation of 4,300 feet. From Knoxville they drove to Norris Dam, part of the TV A project and from there to Chattanooga where battlefields of the Civil War were visited. They viewed the site of the "battle above the clouds" on Look-out Mountain and also Missionary Ridge. Driving to Atlanta, they visited Stone Mountain, as well as several college campuses, including the University of Virginia at Charlotteville, the University of Georgia, Sweet Briar and the Berry School for Boys. Summer Enrollment Likely To Equal 1938 ???

The session will open on Monday, June 19, and continue six weeks. A three weeks' post session will follow.
