Description
Photograph of the entrance to the Physical Education Building at the University of Southern California, [s.d.]. The entrance is at center at the base of a large archway. Three sets of doors can be seen, separated by cylindrical columns. At the peak of the arch, a stone statue depicting the head of a Trojan sticks out from the building. The seal of the University appears directly over the statue. The walls of the building are made of large, light-colored bricks at center and more conventional bricks on the outside. Engraved on the side of the building at right are the words "In Concordiam Mentis Et Corporis". "A Trojan warrior keeps silent vigil above the entrance to the physical education building at the University of Southern California. One of the more recent additions to the university, latest equipment of every kind is at the disposal of S.C. students for the development of sound bodies. Large gymnasiums, two swimming pools, handball courts, spacious locker rooms, and other conveniences are features of the building, which also contains a group of lecture rooms and faculty offices."-- unknown author. Photoprint reads: "News Bureau, F.B. Skeele, University of Southern California, University Park, Los Angeles, California".
