Indiana Central and All That Jazz

/Indiana Central and all that jazz

Indiana Central’s first jazz ensemble was comprised of J. Lynn Arbogast on the piano; Edwin McCune on clarinet; Donald Klinger on violin; Paul Ar- bogast on banjo; and Everett Hoffman on drums. This 1924 photograph was forwarded to the Alumni News by Lynn W. Turner ’27, who wrote, “I think the title we have given it-Indiana Central’s First Jazz Ensemble - is legitimate, even though I doubt whether this group ever gave a public performance. It was the day when George Gershwin and Paul Whiteman were first making jazz respectable, and we decided at Central that it wasn’t a sin to indulge in it occasionally, so you have at least three preacher’s sons in this picture.” 0 McMemorabilia ?

But what about the campus swimming pool? and athletics expand, Nicoson Hall, which was once a very modern building, is simply inadequate for a growing student population. But not everything is going into the physical fitness center -we anticipate that that facility will be built and endowed at a cost of about $5 million. An additional $5 million will be raised to strengthen the future of our campus and its educational programs. In addition to the slightly more than four million dollars which will be used to construct the physical fitness center (with a million dollars to be added to endowment for its maintenance) a new data processing center is being purchased, Good Hall is being made accessible for handicapped persons with an elevator to be placed in it, Schwitzer Center is being slightly remodeled to provide restrooms for the public on the first floor and a new campus snack bar is being constructed as a memorial to Mrs. Mary Streets. Many alumni across a good number of years remember the effective counseling and assistance which Mary Streets provided to untold numbers of students. She was a valued and trusted friend to all. We plan to memorialize her through a new facility to be called “The Streets Corner” which we hope will provide the type of personal service Mary brought to the campus and be a gathering place for students and faculty.

With the physical fitness center expected to cost about $4$4 million, a sum of nearly three-quarters of a million dollars remains, and plans have also been made for these funds. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars is meant for the renovation of Good Hall. When that building was built and completed in 1905, it had a south entrance in the center which even- tually was bricked up. The Center for Continuing Education and Manage- ment Development is now located in that end of the building on the main floor and will remain there, though a portion of the area will be usurped to make room for an elevator. The south entrance will be opened again at ground level, with a foyer leading to the new elevator. The glass doors of the CCEMD will be removed, and the existing hallway will continue to the new Mary Streets, namesake of the future “Streets Corner, ” in 1976. elevator, with all of the CCEMD located to the west of the hall.

There is also a definite fraternal feeling growing among some Fellows members. Nicoson noted that a fraternal family whose members look on their belonging with pride enhances a healthy spirit on a university campus. Nicoson also pointed out that Fellows members are special because they have made a commitment to the university even when it may not have been economically convenient to do so.
