Smith said this week. Completion is being slowed be cause of the lack of steel and con tinued scarcity of necessary tech nical equipment. The university began advertis ing last week for bids on furnish ing and installing general light ing under the stands and flood lighting the field, Smith said. Plans, specifications and con tract documents are open for in spection at the offices of Robert L. St!mwalt, university engineer, and Carroll. Johnson, university architect. The president expressed doubt as to whether the lighting can be completed in time for the 1948 football season because of scarcity of technical equipment. Work on enlarging the seating capacity was begun early this year, but has been constantly hindered by shortages of material. Enlargement of the stadium was provided for at the 1948 session of the General Assembly, which voted a $175,000 appropriation for this purpose.
