THE I 19253 O PRICKLY C PEAR NEW GYM Intermountain has been without a gym ever since the be- ginning of its existence. Some of the athletic records of I. U. C. have risen to great heights during the past few years of Mon- tana's athletics. The school has held its own against the smaller competitors of the state during the past few years and before that time has been equal to the best in the section. VVithout the facilities of a gymnasium, it has been exceed- ingly difficult to carry on any extensive program of athletic competition. The extreme need for a building to be used for this purpose was felt years ago, but the growing condition of the college demanded all the money for necessities. More than ten years have elapsed since the movement for a gymnasium was sponsored by the students. In 1932 the announcement was made that a donation had been made to the school for the purpose of building a new athletic plant. Now we are assured of a place in which we can train our 1933 athletes. It will mark the end of the time when Inter- mountain is the only college in the Rocky Mountain district that does not have an athletic plant. On November 23, 1932, the new gymnasium was dedicated to the school and to the service it would render the future college students. From this day, a marked improvement is in progress at the college in the way of athletic records, physical education instructors and coaches. ,24- LNTERINIOUNTAIN O UNION I COLLEGE vc
