Architect Sophs Complete Building
Of Scaled “Help Yourself” Laundry
Completion of a unique project
in prefabricated demountable build
ing construction has been accomp
lished by the sophomore Architec
ture class at A. & M. The project
was a “help yourself” laundry unit
for use in connection with prefab
ricated housing projects such as
are now being erected at Orange
and other cities in Texas.
“Help yourself” laundries are a
rather new advance and are be
ing seen in ever increasing num
bers. In such a laundry housewives
may take their clothes to the es
tablishment and rent washing ma
chines, doing the work themselves.
Facilities are complete down to
ironing boards, and the whole
laundering operation may be per
formed at the laundry. In this way
housewives who do not own wash
ing machines or other means are
enabled to do their washing with
out paying the cost of commercial
laundering.
Work on this unit has been in
progress since the start of the
present semester. The class was
organized into the departments of
design, engineering and construc
tion, and approached the problem
from the viewpoint of a commer
cial architecture firm. Execution
of the project was done by the
class with no professorial help,
but was carried out under the
supervising eyes of the professor
of sophomore architecture, who
acted in an advisory capacity.

Panel construction was used in
the erection of the project. In this
type all walls, ceilings and par
titions are built in sections, and
thus may be put up much quicker
than the regular type of construc
tion. Another advantage of this
kind of building is that it may be
knocked down and transported to
another location for erection there.
Another feature of the laundry
project is the use of actual scale
materials throughout. Construc
tion was made to % scale, and
every part of the unit conforms to
the scale. The materials are alsO(
of the exact type which would be
used in building a full-sized laun
dry. As a result the project is as
near like the real thing as it can
be made.

Billy Conn, the gentleman so
handy with the .boxing gloves is
the outstanding name in the story
by Octavus Roy Cohen, “THE
PITTSBURGH KID.” It is the
other half of the double feature

This is the story of a fighter
who is torn between two loves, one
a glamour girl, and the other, the
daughter of his late manager.
Eventually he makes the right
choice.
Conn is acceptable in his first
attempt on the screen, and the
supporting cast is able to carry
the story to a fairly successful
conclusion.

Typhus fever is fast developing
into a serious health menace in
Texas, according to Dr. Geo. W.
Cox, State health officer, who is
sued an appeal for every Texan to
cooperate in the prevention of this
dread disease.
“Last year, the greatest num
ber of cases in the history of the
state were reported, when there
was a total of 733 cases of typhus
fever in Texas. While there were
only 46 cases of typhus fever re
ported during the first twelve
weeks of last year, during the same
period of this present year, there
have been 131 cases,” Dr. Cox
stated. “With the peak of this di
sease occurring in August, if the
present trend is continued, we may
expect serious conditions result
ing from typhus by the end of
summer.”
The type of typhus fever occur
ring in Texas is known as endemic
or Brill’s disease, and is trans
mitted to human beings from in
fected rats, by means of the rat
flea. The eradication of rats great
ly reduces this health hazard, and
a consistent program of rat pois
oning, rat trapping, and rat proof
ing will materially aid in the con
trol of typhus in Texas.
Dr. Cox stressed the fact that it
is the patriotic duty of every Tex
an to cooperate in maintaining the
highest possible health level, and
the eradication of rats will pro
mote the control of typhus among
our civilian population as well as
our armed forces.
