Honor of Famous Aggie in ’24
-A
By BILL POTTS
jP j ,
DeWare Field -House, the building that houses the bas
ketball dburt and seats for spectators attending the games,
was iiiamed for a famous Aggie athlete of many years ago.
C. A. DeWare, for whom it was named, played football for
-A&M in '07, '08, and '09. He was*
captain off the football team in
'08, 1 and in '09, made the All-South-

western! /Conference team as an
end. Htffalso played baseball for
A&M aj^dVwras captain of theiteam
in '09. J
C. A. DeWare, Jr., his son is
now a member of the Aggie
^.coaching staff and also gained
fame as a football star in 1930
when he made the All-South-
western Conference team as cen
ter on.the A&M team.
' The . main function of the field
house is to house the spectators
for.bascktbaU games but it has
many other varied uses. Tennis,
volley ball, boxing and wrestling
matches, and handball are some of
the other, sports that can be ac
comodated/.‘within its spacious
walls.
Also included are lecture rooms,
lockers, examination rooms, show
er baths, tumbling rooms, training
irodojs. for boxers and wrentiers,
and offices for the Physical Edu
cation-Den^tment. It also contains
Its own-heating plant.
The aeaiiqg capacity of De-
Ware Field House is approxi
mately thirty-five hundred, half _
of the seats b-ing placed on eith- '
er side of the basketball conrt.
! It was originally intended that
) there ^ be an upper deck of seats
,(On icach side of .the court but
their construction was never au-
thorized. '
With the present enrollment at
t&M so high, nothing has been
eeded worse than that second tier.
ie field house will now seat a
little over one thirti of the student
body. •. ■ ' <i~

ished in 1924 at a cost of approxi
mately $140,000,. It was originally
called Memorial Gymnasium but
in 1939, its name was changed to
DeWare Field House to honor De-
Ware, one of the first football
greats at A&M.

The first basketball game
played on the new hardwood
court after it was finished was.
appropriately enough, >'between
A&M and Texas University.
The Aggies did an excellent job
of dedicating their new gymnasium
that memorable day; they shellack
ed the Longhorns to the tune of
21 to 14.
