Adams House Balks On Washing Machine

Adams House has called off plans to purchase a washing machine for student use, Hugh P. Herman '50 of the House Committee announced, last night.

The action, which rejected plans made last Spring for the purchase of a coin-operated automatic wash outfit to be installed in the House basement, was passed unanimously by the House Committee last Tuesday. The main reason for the change in plans, as cited by Herman, stems from the fact that the House treasury cannot stand the expense of purchasing a washer and the dryer that would also be required.

According to last year's plans, the necessary $600 capital was to be borrowed from the student council and repaid within three years.
