P.C. 1487.1-.31 WILLIAM HENLEY DEITRICK Papers Wake County, Raleigh -2 [1858-1859], 1931-1974 Description: (cont'd) Dorton Arena: Of exceptional interest are the letters and photographs relative to the building of the "Livestock Judging Pavilion" or "Paraboleum" [formally named for Dr. J. S. Dorton, state fair manager, in June, 1961]. This world-famous building was commissioned by the N. C. Department of Agriculture in 1950 as part of a proposed complex of buildings for a "Fair of Tomorrow." The pavilion was designed by Matthew Nowicki, a Polish emigre who was acting head of the department of architecture in the school of design at N. C. State University and a consultant with the Deitrick architectural firm. Nowicki was killed in a plane crash in August, 1950, while returning from India where he had been helping.design a capital city for the Punjab province. His design for the pavil'ion was executed by !1r. Dei trick in con­ sultation with the New York engineering firm of Severud-Elstad-Kreuger. This series of the Deitrick papers contains c. 185 letters, contracts, etc., 74 photographs, 181 colored slides, and 36 published pictures or articles on the Dorton Arena, including copies of the contract, January 9, 1950, between Deitrick and the Department of Agriculture as well as the January 10, 1950, agreement with Nowicki. In addition to a number of eulogies at the time of the designer's death, there are records of payments to his widow in December for work on the designs of the arena, the proposed museum/archives building, the student union (N.C.S.U.), and a housing project. Many letters are con­ cerned with the preparation of a model, slides, and photographs for the exhibitions of the pavilion in New York (N.Y. Architectural League), Seattle (annual A. I .A. convention), and Washington, D. C, (National Gallery of Art-- / A. I. A. Centennial exhibition "Ten Buildings in America's Future"). Two problems attendant upon the widespread attention to the building are explicated in the correspondence: attribution accompanying the models and photographs tended to be inaccurate, with either Nowicki's or Deitrick's name being used exclusively. Deitrick's correspondence reveals his frequent attempts to correct the labeling to read: Deitrick, architect; Nowicki, consultant; and Severud, et al, consulting engineer. The other problem was the final .payment to the Nowicki estate, which was challenged by Nowicki's friend and co-guardian of his children, Lewis Mumford [visiting professor of architecture at the school of design, N.C.S.U., 1948-1952]. A number of letters illustrate adherence to contractual agreement, as well as friendly personal letters from Mrs. Stanislawa Nowicki, the widow. There are a number of biographical items for Matthew Nowicki: a photograph [viewing drapes he designed for the Carolina Country Club], colored slides of his plans for the proposed archives/ art museum; a speech, "Architectural Education in Europe," newspaper clipping of a posthumous exhibition of his work at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, November, 1950, as well as a biographical summary. WILLI&~ HENLEY DEITRICK Papers P.C. 1487.1-.31 Hake County, Raleigh [1858-1859], 1931-1974 -3 Description (cont'd) Dorton Arena (cont'd) Miscellaneous items include an acoustical analysis (March 5, 1954) of the pavilion by Owens~Corning Fibreglas Corporation and a critique of the arena, December 21, 1958, by Henry L. Kamphoefner, dean of the school of design, N. C. State University, In addition to many letters expressing ad~iration for the arena, there are requests for information, photographs, or permission to publish material from graduate students and authors of books on modern architecture (Hilliam Zuk, Allan Temko, James Leefe, etc.). Dorton Arena Photographs: 74 black and white prints of the arena in various stages of construction; colored slides--181 in three series: numbered 114 to 1!99, total 73; 113 to 1153, total 48; unnumbered slides, total 55; slides of models, 5. [Note: Also miscellaneous slides for museum plans, h'ake Forest, Rex Hospital (nurses home), various school buildings, and the Carolina Country Club]. One box contains magazines and brochures--some containing published photographs with captions of the arena, others containing articles: Agricultural Review, Architectural Forum, Bauwelt, Engineering News-Record, Dixie Contractor, State Fair program, The State, Informes de la Construccion, Life, Fortune, Actualities, A.I.A. Journal, Southern Architect, and One Hundred Years of Architecture in America, etc. Dorton Arena Architectural Plans: 38 sheets (negative photocopies, 21" x 15"), Livestock Judging Pavilion [Dorton Arena], November 14, 1950; revised February 21, 1951; final revision, February 12, 1954. Types of drawings: architectural (10), structural (10), electrical (4), plumbing (2), heating (3). Detail drawings for exits, vents/columns, toilets, termination of roof arch, yard drain, telephone conduit layout. [Note: There are also 4 drawings (photo­ copies) of a related building called the "State and County Building" or "Grand­ stand & Exhibit Building" including a plot plan, grandstand plan, section elevation of grandstand, and sketch of grandstand.] Other aspects of Deitrick's career as an architect are reflected in the general correspondence, business records, photographs, and few architectural plans. As a member of several professional, community, and social organizations such as the N. C. Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, Raleigh Historic Sites Commission, Governor's Beautification Committee, Community COncert Association, Milburnie Fishing Club, Democratic Party (precinct level), Rotary Club, Democratic Party (precinct level), Wake Forest ·Alumni Association, etc., Deitrick generated correspondence and literature relative to these associations and several others. Retirement for an affluent couple is illustrated in the records of travels, investments, inventories, taxes, medical bills, as well as Blue Cross, Medicare, .and Social Security records. When almost 70 years old, Mr. Deitrick obtained a realtor's·license and became an associate with John A. Park, Jr. and Co. as a broker, mediating for the mergers and sales of businesses, 1966-1971. After September, 1971, Deitrick operated independenely in the real estate and patents field until, at least, February, 1974. The correspondence to and from a large number of small and large companies and copies of Deitrick's memorandums to Park often indicate the status of a firm .and the function of a mediary, as well as giving some insight into the business economy of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
