Leaks stop fountain
By TRACEY WILLIAMS
Battalion Reporter
Do not expect to see water
flowing from the fountain in front of
the old Chemistry Building until the
weather becomes warmer and drier,
said Gordon Dean, area mainte
nance superintendent.
The fountain, which has a shat
tered pump, has been off since Sep
tember. Dean said it was turned off
when some of the bricks around it
began to rise, indicating a water leak
underground.
“We didn’t fix it then because we
didn’t know whether the problem
was in the construction, where it
would be the contractor’s responsi
bility to fix it, or whether we would
have to fix it,” Dean said.
The specific problem has been de
termined since then; it is the respon
sibility of the Physical Plant De
partment to repair the fountain.
“It’s just a fault of nature, ” Dean
said. “The ground was probably
shifting, and there’s no way to ensure
that it won’t happen again.”
Dean said the problem has already
occurred with the fountains by the
Zachry Engineering Center and the
Memorial Student Center.
Since the time the Physical Plant
Department has taken responsibility
for repairing the fountain, the
weather has not been suitable for the
necessary digging.
“It’s a simple repair, and when
the weather breaks it will only take
three or four days to do it,” he said.
“It’s just too cold and rainy right
now, and any hole we dig will end up
as a mud puddle.”
Dean said that the weather has not
kept the maintenance crews from
doing other minor repairs on the
fountain, such as the replacement of
all the underwater light fixtures.

Sparkling water
The low rays of the late afternoon sun add an intriguing
luminescence to the splashing water in the Fish Pond. When
the weather becomes warmer and drier, another fountain will
resume its water play. The fountain in front of the old Chemis

CHICAGO — An innovative pro
gram in dance and movement
therapy is helping adult psychiatric
patients at the University of Chicago
Medical Center express themselves
and interact more freely with other
persons.
Gina Demos, a dance and move
ment therapist, teaches patients to
use body movements to help them
become more aware of themselves
physically and to interact with each
other in a way that is often easier
than talking to each other. Demos’s
lessons also help patients express
their feelings and promote non
verbal dialogue.
Music chosen by the patients is
played throughout the hour-long.
