SCHULTZ INSTALLS VENTILATION Invisihle in the walls and floors of the Lisbon new school building are many feet of sheet metal ducts which heat and ventilate the building. All of these duets were manufactured and installed hy the A, J. Sehultz and Son firm of warm air heating, ventilating and general sheet metal contractors of Cedar Rapids. Because of these ducts, which were carefully and accurately in- stalled by Schultz workmen, and! the Trane unit heaters installed by Dahn & McCall, the building will! be adequately heated. The Schultz firm did all of the inside and outside sheet metal work on Merncr ttall, men's dor- mitory which was erected on the Cornell campus in 1936, and on Armstrong Hall of Fine Arts erect- ed in 1937. This sun]mer the Schultz firm has done the ventilating work on the Currier Hall addition at the University of Iowa, the air condi- tioning work on the Elks Club at Iowa City, and the ventilating work on the new Highway Commission building in Cedar Rapids. At present they arc working on an elementary grade school build- ing at Waterloo. RECENT JOBS Other recent large jobs are: High School at Iowa City. High School at Mason City-. New School Building at Fair- field. Municipal :Building at Gutten- berg. Court House at Independence. Other large ventilating and air the heat for the entrance. BOYS' AND GLttLS' LOCKER AND SHO%VFIt ROOMS The boys' and girls' locker and shower rooms are located under the stage at the south. The boys' to the west is 26 by 22 feet and contains both closed and bas- ket lockers, and keyless locks, as does the girls' room. I The girls' room, 27 by 18 feet, has individual shower and dressing t compartments. Hot water is sup- ~plied to the showers and all other i Parts of the building by a 420- I, gallon insulated tank located in the ] boiler room. The slmwer heads in both boys' and girls' showers and all plumb- ing fixtures in the locker and shower rooms, are Kohler prod- ucts purchased by Dahn & McCall of Lisbon thru the Chandler com- pany in Cedar Rapids. Trane unit heaters, with a vari- able speed control, will keep the dressing rooms comfortable in the coldest of weather. i I,'AI~M SHOP The farm shop, located on the lower floor to the northwest, is 38 by 30 feet amply lighted by two large windows, 310 square feet of surface area, same as the home economics rooms. A ram.p and ten-foot door to the west will af- ford entrance of farm machinery. A chimney for a forge is located in the northwest corner. Due to the fact that the W. P.-A. are expected to remove the ground from the enclosure just south of the farm shop through a door along the south wall in the near future, the farm shop equipment has not been fully installed and will not be moved from the old industrial arts room until the excavating has been completed. HellE ECONO311CS ROOMS The home economics department has two rooms on the north side of the building under the bleacher elevations. The combined area of the rooms is 30 feet by 37 feet, and each room has a large window, 10 feet by 15 feet, on the north side. The windows are each cur- tained by four mesh panels with a valance trimmed with red ball fringe. The floors in both rooms are finished with alternate black and red squares of inlaid linoleum with a two and one-half foot black border.
