76!Academics Swimming pool next on plans After completing a 5662.000 rennovation project for three classroom facilities during the fall semester, Northern Oklahoma College's Board of Regents announced plans for the construction of a swimming pool. Contracts were let in late January for the project which will be adjacent to the Foster- Piper Fieldhouse. Completion of the construction is estimated by the fall of 1975, hopefully in time for student class usage. Plans specify that the pool, which will be 75 feet long and 45 feet wide, feature both 1 and 3 meter boards and meet competition standards. Regents continued to hold the line on tuition charges despite the action prevalent at other institutions in the area. Goodwin Broaddus Harry P. Conroy Exall English Joe F. Gary E.T. Dunlap G.
