A clue to the future of the University can be detected in the construction of a new 12-inch steam pipe.
Cecil A. Roberts, Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, revealed yesterday that the steam tunnels will carry 50 percent more steam in order to "pick up the overload on the present pipes and prepare for new construction."
He would not indicate when or where there will be new construction, but other sources disclosed that the new pipe is principally for the northern part of the University. It is possible, therefore, that new construction may be planned in that area.
The tunnel, which runs from the Weeks Memorial Bridge to north of the Museum, will be broken into at four places, including the front of Lowell House, where digging has already begun, Saunders D. Shaw of the contracting company said.
