DARTMOUTH'S educational work in the field of physics is being greatly facilitated this year by the new laboratory wing of Wilder Hall. First put into use this fall, the north wing provides not only added space that was urgently needed but also an efficient layout of a central apparatus room feeding out to the laboratories around it. Some major items of equipment are still lacking, especially in the space for advanced studies.
Built at a cost of approximately $270,000, the Wilder Hall enlargement was financed by the Hopkins War Memorial Program Fund.

AN UNOCCUPIED SPOT so far is the room that will house a high voltage generator when one is obtained. Professor Murch is shown on the balcony.
A SMALL INDIVIDUAL LAB, one of several fitted out for experiments in sound. Pieter von Herrmann, Teaching Fellow in Physics, is shown using it.
A CRYING NEED filled by the new wing is this new apparatus storage room off the main lecture hall.
