dc.description.abstract | The plan under consideration of the authors is one to investigate and show the feasibility of developing a natural resource, of the oampus. Advantages presented by such a development are distinctly three-fold in nature: aesthetical, recreational, and educational. . . . The general topographical, hydrographical, and geological condittons prevailing in the Woods Creek ravine are highly favorable for
development. The topography of the area traversed and drained by the creek presents a suitable site for the construction of a dam near where the northeastern boundary of the campus intersects the ravine. A dam at this location would serve several purposes; first, it would make available the hydraulic power of the creek; second, the pondage created would serve as an artificial lake for beautification
of the campus and at the same time fill the want of long desired outdoor aquatic sports. [From introductory section] | en_US |
