Ware, a great A&M athlete during
the early 1900s.
DeWare was originally able to
hold 3,000 to 3,500 spectators and
had'"no handball courts, so the
basketball area stretched from
wall to wall, floor to ceiling. Carl
Landiss, professor of health and
physical education at A&M from
1943 to 1979, said when he came
to campus, there was not enough
seating for basketball games.
"The students and faculty both
went to games according to first
letter of their last names." says
Landiss, "One night A-Ls were al
lowed to attend and another night
was M-Zs."
The problem of seating, a
growing student population and a
larger athletic program led to the
building of G. Rollie White Colise
um. The idea was to build the
new complex and tear down the
old field house; however, funding
was never sufficient to finish the
new building, so the school decid
ed to renovate DeWare. The coli
seum stayed its familiar horseshoe
shape and DeWare received new
life.
Today, DeWare's only resem
blance to its past is the basketball
floor. Handball courts were
added during the renovation.
This cut the ceiling clearance in
half and the enormous arching
windows are, for the most part,
hidden from view. Instead of
huge iron rafters and open area
above the court, there is only
acoustic tiles and cracked paint on

In addition, soil conditions)
considered to have an affect on
many old buildings in this are)
the country. Expansive clays in
the ground have caused many
buildings with reinforced slats
and pools to settle unevenly. 6
cause of an above ground craw
space surrounding the Down's
pool below its deck, the old pp
may have escaped decline eviiis
in the natatorium building itsel
A possible solution to theexpa:
sive clay problem is to build on
pier foundation, such as the ok
being put under the new sports
facility.
To many people on campus,
such as Martha Nix and swim
ming coach Melvin Nash, thedi
struction of Downs is a tragedv
and the passing of a unique pi«
of history. Although he admits
that the lack of a collegiate lew:
swimming facility has hurt re
cruiting in the past, Nash said,'
can't promise that I won't shed
tear when this place comes
down."
DeWare and Downs havea[
parently outlasted their useful
ness. The new complex will h)
multiple basketball and racquet
ball courts. The weight room*
be larger and air-conditioned.
Nash said the new swimming
pools will be among the top fit
collegiate facilities in the natiot
Although the new gym will
more aesthetically pleasing, sue
love the atmosphere of the old;
Ware weight room. Many patii
say that they love the sweatbw
feel of the old gym.
Many schools have more th
one swimming and gym facilit)
This gives the students and fact
ty a choice of places to workout
and at the same time keeps new
facilities from receiving t he tral
of the entire school.
Many buildings have come
down to make room for the ne»
When the school built the Rudd
Tower, the old auditorium, Gui
Hall, was torn down with mud
dismay among students and fat
ulty. Landiss said people hopet
that there would be some wayt
saving the building and that®
people watched as it wentdoifl 1
Tentatively, the school has deal
ed to put a park-like area whert
the natatorium and gymnasiuiu
now stand. In 1996, yet anothet
piece of history at a school
steeped in tradition will be gout
to make way for the new.

ondary to the renewed fear of vio-

see that little can be done as such
activities have been occurring on
a regular basis since the Montre
al Canadiens victory in 1986.
Whatever the motive for this
outlandish behavior, whether it
be racially motivated, class moti
vated, or just plain celebration
enhanced by alcohol, it needs to
end.
Undoubtedly this is not a per-
lence.
"This is offensive behavior,
and people better wise up,"
Navratilova said. "We're playing
sports, but look what's happened
with soccer. They have armed
guards on horseback, and dogs,
and fences so people can't get into
the stadium. This is what the
world is coming to. So we
shouldn't be that surprised.
"This is a sport. This is not a
matter of life and death. But I just
read in the papers the riots in
Chicago were 'nice' ... Gee, what a

and plain childish.

Navratilova was glad thatll

"Who needs that? That
