Ev. Luth. Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States. 1932. 43

4 the gymnasium. Our housing conditions in the Cedar Street
emitory are far from satisfactory, and we are constantly exposed
ip the possibility of having this building condemned by the local
horities- A fire last year caused some damage. Because of the
ae rdous condition of the building it was considered imperative to
an additional night-watchman. Even if the present enrolment

ld decrease, an additional dormitory still is necessary, as any one

nt at this convention may easily convince himself. Recent
estimates for the cost of a new dormitory on a somewhat reduced scale
total 395,000. This figure is based on present building conditions.

9, The original plans for the future development of our local
Concordia adopted a few years ago embodied the razing of the present
Cedar Street Dormitory. For that reason the Refectory building was
located in such close proximity. We feel that this plan should be
carried out. But in view of the present unfavorable financial condi-
tion we request that in conjunction with a new dormitory Cedar
Street Dormitory be so remodeled as to provide an additional
Jaboratory room on the first floor and increased library space on the
second floor at an estimated cost of $11,000 and that the present pro-
fessors’ library be divided into two classrooms at an estimated cost
of $400.

3. We repeat our request for a master-clock system, to relieve the
present unsatisfactory situation, at a cost of $1,200.

4, Again we petition your Honorable Body for the necessary
laundry and bakery equipment, to be installed in the Refectory
Building, where room has been provided. Cost: $3,850.18 or less.

5. We pray once more for the necessary appropriation to complete
the grading and leveling of the grounds. Former estimate, $3,233.20.

g. If the additional Biology and Laboratory room is provided,
approximately $2,000 would be necessary for equipment. Total re-
quests: $116,683.18. ‘
