RESULT OF TWO YEAR S’ WORK
Report Studies More PE Facilities
More space for better physical
education programs versus continu
ed use of expensive, poorly design
ed gymnasiums are questions rais
ed by research architects of the
Texas Engineering Experiment
Station.
Ideas they present in a research
report on designing limited shelt
ers for physical education pro
grams have sparked response from
school systems throughout the na
tion.
The report, “Shelter for Physi
cal Education,” is the culmination
of two years of research by Wil
liam G. Wagner, research archi
tect, with Ben H. Evans, TEES
architectural research coordinator,
and M. A. Nowak, research physi
cist, the Architectural Research
Group of TEES. Dr. Carl Landiss,
professor of health and physical
education here, served as chief
physical education consultant for
the project.
Research on limited shelters was
sponsored by Educational Facili
ties, Inc., with a financial grant
administered through the A&M
Research Foundation.
Limited shelters, so-called be
cause of their variety in form,
may be described as natural or
man-made devices that not only
afford protection from climatic ex
tremes but also utilize desirable
elements in nature to create a
stimulating environment.
The idea of limited shelters for
use by a large number of school
youngsters in physical education
activities is not new. However, in
creased interest in a national heal
th program has focused attention
on such facilities.
At present Evans and Wagner
are serving as consultants for
school systems in Covina, Calif.;
Mt. Kisco, N. Y.; Lajunta, Colo.,
and Greeley, Colo., where school
boards are interested in better
physical education facilities.
“Basically, the appeal of limit
ed shelters goes back to the idea
that nature is desirable, that peo
ple prefer to be out-of-doors rather
than indoors — assuming the cli
mate is reasonable,” Evans said.
However, preliminary spade
work in looking for data on phy
sical education revealed little or
na data existed on “comfort re-

quirements” for youngsters in phy
sical education activities — in
formation on air circulation, shade,
temperature, radiation and wind.
“After interviewing physiolo
gists and bioclimitologists, we
found a lot of the answers to these
problems were not available,” Wag
ner noted. “We found there was
much more interest in environ
mental control in spacecraft than
there was in needs of youngsters
in school.”
In assessing the need for a new,
lealistic look at PE facilities, the
research team surveyed, by ques-
tionaire, some 68 school systems in
40 states. It discovered that ap
proximately 70 per cent of the total
school property is' devoted to phy
sical education and that approxi
mately $480 million was expended
in 1960 for new PE plants.
At the same time, the limited
survey by the researchers reveal
ed there is a much greater ex
penditure for interscholastic ath
letic programs than there was for
physical education. They also learn
ed that deficits in the athletic pro
grams equaled the total PE ex-
14 To Attend
Missions Meet
In Ft. Worth
Fourteen A&M students will be
attending the twelfth annual Mis
sions Conference to be held at
Southwestern Baptist Theological
Seminary March 9-11.
Rides will be available for all
others interested in making the
trip according to Jim Carnes, pres
ident of the A&M Baptist Student
Union.
The conference, to be held in
Fort Worth, is dedicated to shar
ing and discussing the needs of
woi’ld missionary work. In past
years, over 300 students attending
the conference have entered this
service.
Guest speakers will include Cliff
Barrow, evangelist and song lead
er with the Billy Graham Evange
listic Association; and C. A. Ro
berts, pastor of the First Baptist
Church in Altus, Okla. Barrows
will speak on “My World Abroad.”
and Roberts will speak on “My
Place In God's Will.”
Reservations for lodging and
transportation for the conference
may be made by contacting the
Baptist Student Union or by stop
ping at the Baptist Student center.

penditures in almost half of the
districts reporting losses.
Are limited shelters also usable
for interscholastic competition ?
While PE programs vary, these
shelter designs may be compatible
with competitive athletics, provid
ed the prime objective is not set
ting athletic “records,” the archi
tects report.
However, the physical education
shelter’s greatest asset is its bene
fit to all the students in school. It
may well provide the first train-
in ground for future athletes, they
added.
“Quite often,” the report notes,
“the average citizen assumes that
the athletic program and physi
cal education are one and the
same.” This is usually not the case.
Indoor gym facilities generally re
flect the emphasis on spectator
sports, notably lack of proper vent
ilation and other needs required by
larger group exercises.
Field houses have been dridging
the gap between the spectator
sport and the PE program by
opening up a greater range of
activities indoors.
Testing Air Flow Patterns
These two architects are testing the air flow patterns in a
llimited shelter. Ben H. Evans, left, Texas Engineering
Experiment Station architect, and William ’ G. Wagner,
assistant professor of architecture, are co-authors of a
research report on limited shelters for physical education
facilities.
