New fiym
Will Be Ready
This Fall
The proposed addition to
the G. Rollie White coliseum
will open during the fall term
of 1955, said C. E. Tishler,
head of the physical educa
tion department.
The new addition, which will join
the rear of the main building, is
the physical education and inter
mural arthletics.
will have the facilities for
handling 1,000 students per hour,”
Tishler said. “We have had about
3,000 students each fall semester
for the past three years. Howere,
when our proposed physical edu
cation facilities are completed, we
can handle approximately double
that amount.”
One of the outstanding features
of the new coliseum wing, accord
ing to Tishler, will be the small
corrective gymnasium on the
ground floor. “Formerly, students
with physical handicaps could not
participate in many types of
sports but with the cooperation
of their family doctors and the
college hospital, students will have
the opportunity to take part in
modified sports,” said Tishlei - .
The second floor of the building
will have rooms for different kinds
of indoor sports. Wrestling, fenc
ing, and boxing rooms are pro
posed.
On the third floor, gymnastics
and tumbling rooms combined
with a large floor will be construc
ted. The large floor will have
enough space to facilitate three
basketball, nine badminton, or five
volley ball courts.
Showe^ and basket-system lock
er rooms will be available; 5,000
small wire baskets will be used to
store the students’ gym equipment.
