1161 , ..,, ' A .N ggi , g .X, Muskingum's entrance into the field of athletics was through the door of foot- ball when, in the fall of 1894, a few of Muskingum's students came to the conclu- sion that if their college was to keep up with her sister institutions, it would be necessary to have a football team. That same fall a meeting was called for the purpose of placing football on a business-like basis and encouraging college athletics in general. It was at this time that the Muskingum Athletic Association was formed. It was not until 1900 that Muskingum had a gymnasium. At this time the Alumni Gym, which still stands on College Street, was constructed- During the World War a barracks to house the Muskingum S. A. T. C. was erected on the campus- Through an agreement with the government, the barracks was constructed in 1918 and im- mediately after the war was converted into a gymnasium and was known as the Barracks Gym. It served as the main physical education building until it burned in 1928. Scarcely had the embers cooled, when the president, I. Knox Montgomery, who was off the campus at the time, telegraphed word that plans would begin immediately for erecting a new physical education building. In two months the ground was broken and the structure was begun. Then came the depression. 5 m il: 'E rw fn -1 W. VA. A. Lounge

Because of this, funds were not available to continue the construction and the skeleton stood as a constant reminder of the unfinished task until December, 1933, when Harry Hopkins qranted President Robert 1v1ontqomery's pleas to have the construction made a CWA project under the governments reconstruction program.
