Michigan Alumni Prominent In Architecture And Elngineering By DOROThIY GIES EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the fourthj of a series of articles on distinguished M\ichigan alumni. Some of the most impressive and extraordinary feats of engineering and architecture have been planned and executed by graduates of Uni- versity technical colleges. Not only that, but a number of their more noted accomplishments have been additions to the campus. James Baird, '99E, was a Varsity football captain before his gradua-' tion. The Lawyers' Quadrangle, prob- ably one of the most beautiful re- productions of English Gothic archi- tecture in America, was built by him. He is also noted as the builder of the Lincoln Memorial and the Legal Re- search Building in Washington, the Arlington Memorial Amphitheatre, and various other capital and uni- versity buildings in the country. The new stadium was designed by a Michigan alumnus. Bernard L. Green, '91E, planned the project. He has also built the Yankee Stadium in New York, more than half the Dre S. Iobins To (ve Easter Services Here Dr. Sidney S. Robbins, former pres- ident of the Ann Arbor Ministerial association and president of the Ann Arbor Rotary Club, will return to Ann Arbor this Sunday to give the Easter services at the Unitarian Church. Dr. Robbins is well known to Ann Arbor as a pastor of the Uni- tarian church for nine years before he left in 1928 to teach at St. Law- rence University. The Topic of his morning address will be "Easter Faith." Sunday at 7:30 p.m. Dr. Robbins will discuss "A Pragmatic Philosophy of Reli- gion" at the church. At present Dr. Robbins is a pro- fessor of philosophy at St. Lawrence University. His contact with Uni- versity students and Ann Arbor resi- dents was gained during his resi- dence here as Unitarian minister from 1919 to 1928. major league baseball parks in Amer-I ica, and football stadiums at Westj Ponit, the University of Minnesota,I and the University of West Virginia. Irving K. Pond, '79E, is the archi- tect of the Union. Over 70 years old, Mr. Pond is as proud of his acrobatic feats and agility in executing back- flips as for his work in designing Hull House and the Commons in Chi- cago, and more recently, the Women's League building here. During the war Ernest Conrad, '90E, supervised the construction of 722 submarine chasers for the Allies, and built 500 eighty-footers for the British government in record time. John D. Akerman, '25E, has gained national recognition for designing airplanes. He was a member of the Imperial Russian Air Forces, until the Revolution. Driven from Rus- sia, he landed in United States in 1918, penniless and unable to speak a word of English. In 12 years he h-ad hecofull profess~or nd hond Plaids And Tweeds Are Latest Feature For Outdoor Wear "Books 'tis dull and endless strife' Let nature be your teacher," advises Wordsworth.
