As the weather finally begins to
fit the season and temperatures
start to rise, air conditioners
around campus will be straining to
keep buildings cool.
That is, unless they break down.
James Ten Brook, Physical Plant
director, said a breakdown is likely
in at least one South Campus
building before the summer is over.
Architects are working on a de
sign for a chill-water loop for South
Campus to solve that problem. The
loop would connect the air condi
tioning systems in several of the
buildings.
This system consists of pipes
running between water-cooled
buildings on South Campus.
According to TenBrook, the system
will provide a backup in case one of
the existing systems fails, and it
will make the systems up to 50 per
cent more efficient on hot days.
Lee Pratt, a botany professor,
said the cooling system in the plant
sciences building is inadequate. lie
said failure of the system inter
rupts a lot of experiments there.

“Although the plant sciences
building is fairly modem, its air
handling system is inadequate for
handling the needs of research,"
Pratt said. He has had an indi
vidual air conditioning system in
stalled in his lab.
Walt Britton, business manager
in the College of Education, said
the air conditioning system in Ad-
erhold has been overhauled re
cently, and he doesn’t foresee a
problem this summer. However, he
said the loop sounds like a good
idea.
If approved by the Board of Re
gents, the construction of the
system will be funded by Major Re
pair and Rehabilitation funds and
will begin in July. TenBnxjk said
the projected cost of the system is
$2.5 million.
“I’m enthusiastic about it," he
said. “I feel confident it will be
funded.”
In order to receive MRR funding,
the project will have to compete
with 150-200 other projects on
campus, including renovation of
the Thomas Street Art Area,
paving of roads and asbestos re
moval. TenBrook said this makes it
difficult, but he feels confident the
project will be funded.
Pratt said, “I’m not trying to
compete for this system against

any other, but it is necessary."
The loop would connect at least
seven buildings on South Campus:
Aderhold, the new Biological Sci
ences Complex, Graduate Studies,
Ecology, Pharmacy, and the For
estry buildings. The dairy sciences
building and Hardman Hall may
also be included, TenBrook said.
Two chill water loops already
exist on campus. One, on North
Campus, connects the main li
brary, the law school and Peabody,
Brooks and Caldwell halls. The
other connects the science build
ings behind the Sanford Stadium.
TenBrook said if the MRR
funding isn’t approved by the re
gents, the project could be started
under regular operating costs or be
put off until next summer.

In three years, the way in which the United States
deals with 12 countries in Western Europe rnay never
be quite the same again.
On July 1, 1992, the member countries of the Euro
pean Economic Community plan to complete the cre
ation of an integrated common market free of trade
barriers.
Edmond Volker, a trade expert and associate pro
fessor at the University of Amsterdam, addressed the
current status of the European Common Market
Friday as part of the School of Law’s International
Day. He also discussed the future impact the market
will have on U.S.— European trade relations
Using technical detail, Volker explained the goals
and directives of the European Economic Community.
Volker called the movement to a common market an
attempt for “the harmonization of the economics, mar
kets and national legislations of the member coun
tries."
Volker said “a major step towards further political
integration" would lie the formation of a central
banking system. This step currently is under negotia
tion.
Volker said integration hasn’t proceeded without
problems. Individual differences still exist concerning
technical specifications for consumer products, finan
cial services, government procurement, and taxes le
vied.
The White Paper covers the basis of the 1992
movement. Accepted in 1985, the 300 acts outlined
the measures needed to eliminate all physical, techin
ical and tax barriers nmong the now 12 member Euro
pean Economic Community: West Germany, France,
Great Britain, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Lux
einbourg. Denmark, Ireland, Greece, Spain and Por
tugal
In regard to current relations between the United
States and the European Econornii Community,
Volker spoke briefly on the recent controversy over
banking reciDnxity.’This is a procedure by which for
eign hanks located within the common market, can
extend their services equally to all members of the
common market. In return, European Economic Com
munity banks located outside the market expect the
same type of reach. Many countries hav. shown ri-« r
vations about this idea, Volker said.
The 12 members of the European
Economic Community are: West
Germany, France, Great Britain,
Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands,
Luxembourg, Denmark, Ireland,
Greece, Spain and Portugal.
In conclusion, Volker said placing all attention
the markets proposed completion date is an in*
cient perspective.
On its own, 1992 does not stand, he said *Th<
question is not 1992 as such . but the big question
lays in what is going to happen after 1992 "
One student attending the speech found it to be in
teresting but a bit technical at points.
Richard Alembik, a first year law student, said,
“Though the talk was indeed informative to those fa
miliar with the subject of European integration, those
not entirely familiar with the subject may have found
the discussion a bit dry."
