The Red Building served as the gymnasium until January 1908, when it was destroyed by Fire. At Commencement time the Trustees made the final plans for a new Gym. Y During the summer of 1908, Mr. William Niedringhaus of St. Louis passed away. He remembered Central Wesleyan in his will with a gift of 310,000 This gift enabled the College to build a new gymnasium, although it did not cover the total cost of the building. The new structure was called Niedringhaus Memorial in honor of the donor of the initial gift. Mr. William F. Niedringhaus and his brother, Hon. F. G. Niedringhaus, were staunch friends of our College. They took a deep interest in the work and always contributed freely to Wesleyan. They were faithful members of the Methodist Church and examples of real 'Christians who were ever ready to help those in need. The new Gym until recent years has been the best Gym', ofany college in the state. On January 16, 1909, the dedication game was played between C. W. C. and Kem.per Military Academy. A large audience witnessed the game, and C. W. C. won the victory by 49 to 16. Yea Boa! for the Blue and White. Those who played on the team were Addicks, Hemke, Robertus, Kallmeyer, and Wipperman. A ' A ' The Gymnasium proper has a regulation, size court for basket ball. On the north side of the court are bleachers for the students. A gallery is built on all four sides for spectators. At both ends of the main floor are rooms, one the office of the coach, a janitors room, and two. dressing rooms, equipped with lockers. The building is well supplied with apparatus necessary for the classes in Physical Culture. - In the basement of the building are the Science Laboratories and recita- tion rooms. Shower baths have been installed for the use of the athletes. Every student has pleasant memories of Niedringhaus Gymnasium, mem- ories of Students' Reunions, gym classes, socials, and basket ball games. .rw 9 if i-LV . l ,him 2 I.
