Board orders classrooms Palomar officials took the first step recently to relieve crowded classroom and office conditions with five or more purchase- lease modular- relocatable buildings. The structures would bt. moved in and erected to afford additional space needed urgently for the l aboratory school for c hild developm ent program, the nurses' training program, and various other departmental facilities and offices . The crowded conditions in those depa rtme nts were described to the governing board session by Dr. Frederick R. Huber, president, and other college officials. The increasi ngly heavy enrollment, and its accom pa nying require ment for additional staff and facilities, were cited as creating over- crowded conditions in the affec ted departments for which relief is sought through use of the ''relocatable" buildings. It was noted that these are being widely used on college campuses where construction funds are not available for costly new permanent buildings. The board's ac tion to implement the project was authori zation of the employment of the arc hitectural firm of Pade r ewski, Dean and Associates, to provid e professional services in the planning and design of the structures and locations and the related equipm e nt.
