The New Gymnasium P - .HE Gymnasium is situated on the south side of the campus, about equidistant from the east and west boundaries. It is a red brick structure one hundred and Hfteen feet in length by sixty-six feet in Width. 'The 3 brick walls at either end are capped with limestone and rise above the roof, which may be called a self-supporting, 'chip-roof,'l with the steep sides slated and the top metallic. There are three large en- trances. The one on the south faces Franklin Field, and above it is cut in the stone panel the word HGymnasium. The end entrances are wide and above the doors are a series of windows, and above these, at both ends, is a slab of white stone, upon the one at the west end are the words Recreation Hall, and upon the one at the east '4Physical Culture. On the north are seven large, double windows, extending well up to where the roof extends over the side walls of the building, on the south are six windows of the same dimensions-three on each side of the entrance. All the windows are glazed and afford ample light. They are covered in the interior with heavy, adjustable screens. As before stated, the roof is Hself- supporting, and the interior is one immense room, making an ideal place for basket ball, indoor base ball, and all indoor athletics and gymnasium work. At both corners of the east end is a circular iron stairway that leads into the dressing-rooms, for both women and men, in each of which are one hundred ventilated lockers. In rooms adjoining the dressing-rooms are the the shower baths. Be- yond these is the swimming pool-fifty feet in length and twenty-five feet in width, ten feet deep at the south end and four feet at the north. The building is lighted throughout with electricity, heated by steam and supplied with both hot and cold water. The main room is ventilated by three ventilators at the apex of the roof, and is to he furnished with up-to-date apparatus. As a whole, the new Gymnasium is an artistic structure and adds greatly to the beauty of the campus, as well as being a much needed and appreciated addition to the equipment of the College.
