COLLEGE ARCHITECT
SUBMITS PLANS FOR
OUTDOOR GYMNASIUM
To be 90x50 Feet—Large Enough
for Basket Ball Court and Base
Ball Diamond
BUILDING PROBABLY RUSTIC
Structure to Combine Best Features
of Indoor and Open Air Gym-nasium
Plans have been made by Harry
Barton, the college architect, for an
outdoor gymnasium which is to be
put under construction very soon.
The gymnasium as planned will be
90x50 feet with a vestibule in which
.there will be room for coats and
hats, shelves for books, and two
drinking.fountains. There will be a
built-in seats all around two sides of
the gymnasium, and built-in chests
aeross one end for athletic proper-ties.
The building will be large
enough for a basket-ball court and
an indoor base ball diamond. The
entire structure will be screened in
bat there will be a wall sufficently
high to afford protection from .the
weather, thus combining the best
features of both the indoor and open
air gymnasium. The building will
probably be rustic in construction;
similar to the Hut The site has not
been decided upon. This new build-ing
will answer a crying need which
has been felt on the campus for sev-eral
years, and will add much* to the
efficiency of the gymnastic work.
