Revised plans for the new medical
and dental school building for George
town University, bids for which will be
opened January II, will involve total
expenditure of approximately $850,000,
university officials stated yesterday.
This is o considerably larger amount
than was at first anticipated in the
original plans for the building, the site
of which was changed recently from a
location at Thirty-seventh and o streets
to the university grounds bordering the
Reservoir road. Rev. Walter G. Sum-
mers, S. j., regent of the medical and
dental departments, explained that the
construction of the building and land
scaping of the grounds would cost ap-
proximately $65O.000 and an outlay of
100000 would be required for equip
ment.

tees of the university, completion of the

from the thoroughfare. It's two main
wings, each planned to be $50 feet long,
will parallel the road. The connecting
wing will be 101 feet in length. No
change has been made in the exterior
design, which calls for a four-story
structure of red brick and limestone
trimming of the colonial type of archi-
lecture.
Facing Reservoir road, the building
will be approached by granite steps lead
ing gradually, by means of broad ter
races, to the entrance. The general de-
sign of the building has been made to
conform to the natural setting, which
will require extensive landscaping be-
cause of it's wooded acres.

open on a foyer, so by 35 feet. with
