2. An addition to our quarters for our help

During the past years our kitchen and janitorial help has been
crowded into tiny rooms with practically no privacy. There is
room above the present kitchen for several rooms or suites of -
rooms. These enlarged quarters will keep our help content and
make it easier to retain quality personnel. Synod approved of this
addition in 1950, which then was estimated at $50,000 and included
it in the “Conquest for Christ” collection. According to present *
estimates, this addition will cost us about $60,000. Hence an addi- 4
tional $10,000 needs to be voted us.

3. Renovation of the Administration Building

Our preserit Administration Building, which is over fifty years @
old, needs rather extensive renovation. To put the building into 4
such shape that it will meet in a measure the standard of present- bo
day school buildings, we need to modernize the lighting, tuck-
point the masonry, resurface the floors, replace the desks, repair and
replace the windows, paint the corridors, classrooms, and chapel, 4
and remodel our physics laboratory, an item for which a request a
was made already in 1950. The estimate for the extensive repairs a
is $54,500. 4
4. Renovation of Wunder Dormitory 3

After being in service over 25 years, Wunder Dormitory needs #
repairs and remodeling. To put it into the condition it ought to #
be in, we need to add some new equipment, to resurface the :
remaining floors, reset and repair doors and windows, remove the
outmoded and no longer necessary ventilating system, convert 4
available space into a recreation room, tuck-point large areas of 9
the masonry, paint the interior, and construct an entrance to thes
south to lead to the new quadrangle. We have estimated the cost §
for this work at $54,000. 3
