Excerpt: ...of Physical Education, who will prescribe the course of exercise to be pursued by each student, this course being based upon examinations and measurements made b the adjoining anthropometric room. Above the gymnasium there will be a running track, sus into three floors, and each story has over 400 lockers offering ample accommodations for 2,500 studentsSufficient floor space is allowed for dressing purposes, with necessary lavatories and clothes racks. Ample arrangements have been made for light and ventilation. THE VISITORS. Visitors will enter by the main entrance door and ascend the stairways near the entrance door to the gallery overlooking the pool, where, on special occasions, games of water-polo may be viewed. Another gallery at a higher level permits the public to see the exercises in the gymnasium. On the occasion of special exhibitions upon the gymnasium floor, the entire running gallery may be utilized for spectators. The completeness of the building can readily be seen by the accompanying drawings and plans. It is a matter of congratulation that such exhaustive attention has been paid to meeting all the physical needs of the thousands of undergraduates who will spend four of the most important years of life at Pennsylvania. The coat of the proposed structure including the pound is estimated at $350,000, a sum really insignificant in comparison to the location and character of the building, and what it will supply to the student. The University Committee in charge are: Charles Custis Harrison, Provost; Louis C. Madeira, Jr.; J. Win. White, Chairman; H. Laussat Geyelin, A. M. Hance; J.

Not illustrated. 1901 edition. Excerpt: ...nation to the world." We had just shaken off the shackles of a control exercised not in the broad spirit of England's modern colonial methods, but in the narrow self-seeking of a desire to use the colonies for the benefit of the crown. It was the blunder of a dull King and an unwise Minister. It has been repudiated and given over long ago. So much so, that to-day, we are to learn from Great Britain the lesson of the management of colonies, because she has learned the lesson that we taught her about their mismanagement. We were then what the old Latin writer called the Britains, "orbe remotos." Only the slightest and most infrequent possibilities of communication shut us off from even the knowledge of passing events, until they had passed into forgetfulness in the country where they occurred. And we were absorbed in the tremendous task of building up the broken and scattered fragments of a disjointed congeries of states, into a nation. There was no time, no need, no possibility of our touching, or troubling ourselves with the politics or policies of European states; much as they threatened then to trouble us. And the caution, when Washington uttered it, was wise and true. But it is like arming a soldiery now with flintlocks and blunderbusses, like recurring to transportation with mules and by canal-boats, like the employment of the Indian runner instead of the telegraph, to quote, as applicable to our changed conditions, cautions and counsels which belong to a long past time. We are entangled in alliances to-day with the whole habitable globe, by a network of wire flashing under the oceans and around the world, with a speed that not only annihilates distance, but carries its messages to the remotest East, hours before the...

Book Description
This book traces the parallel paths of physics and astronomy at the University of Pennsylvania, starting with their genesis in the 18th century, through the rising stature of both departments in the 20th century, and concluding with their unification in 1994. Along the way we meet David Rittenhouse, who observed the transit of Venus in 1769, Charles Doolittle, whose remarkable beard would freeze to his telescope on cold nights, Gaylord Harnwell, who transformed first the physics department and then the entire university, and Raymond Davis, who uncovered a mystery in the middle of the sun. The stories are tragic (Arthur Goodspeed failed to discover X-rays through inattention), horrifying (Dicran Kabakjian poisoned an entire neighborhood), and celebratory (three Penn physicists received the Nobel Prize in the late 20th Century). The reader will gain an appreciation, not just of the history of one institution, but of the ways these two disciplines both intersect and complement each other.
