Board of Public Works Designed Blake Hall
Named for Prof. Lucien I. Blake Formerly Head of Department of Physics
Lucien Ira Blake, for whom Blake Hall is named, came to the University of Kansas in 1887 from Rose Polytechnic Institute, Terre Haute, Ind. He received his A. B. from Amherst College, and his Ph. D. from Berlin University, where he was a contemporary student with Heinrich Hertz, the discoverer of what are known as Hertzian waves. Doctor Blake left the University of Kansas in 1906. He
went from K. U. to the U. S. Light House Board as constructing Engineer.
There is framed upon the wall of one of the rooms in Blake Hall, a telegram from Chancellor Snow to Lucien I. Blake. It is dated March 10, 1893, and says that $50,000 and $10,000 had been granted by the state legislature for the erection of a physics building.
Professor Blake drew the ground plan of the building while giving extension lectures in Wichita, Kansas. He taught by a young architect named Wells.
We planned a dignified building, in the style of architecture, of Green Hall today. All buildings, in those days, however, were erected by the State Board of Public Works. The plan of the Physics Building, as it was at first known, was consequently drawn by the state architect.
Professional jealously led the state architect to draw up his plans as different from those at Wells as possible. The firm has an unusual architecture of Blake Hall.
The building was finished in 1895, at a cost of $88,000. It was named Blake Hall, in honor of Professor Blake in 1898.
Blake Hall is in Chateau Renaissance style, and constructed of Cleveland sandstone. The cornices are of copper, which now has assumed practically a solid black color. The roof is of tile. Care was taken that no iron go into the structure of the building below the third story, so as to interfere with the accuracy of experiments. The black streaks which give a unique color scheme to the building however are supposed to be from outcroppings of that mineral in the sandstone.
The major service of Blake Hall has been as a Physics building. Some parts have served queer purposes, however. For instance, several years before the completion of Robinson Gymnasium, the top floor of Blake Hall was used as a gymnasium for the woman students in the University.

HAVE YOU HAD IT
My nose is red, I'm feeling blue.
I sure believe I've got the "flu."
I sneeze, and sneeze, and sneeze, I'm awful wably in the knees.
I awful form part of all the time.
I don't want to walk, I don't want to talk;
HAVE YOU HAD IT
And my eyes water like the river Rhine.
I don't want to sit up, I don't want to lie down.
I think I'm the most miserable person in town.
It seems most every bone in my body will break.
To tell you the truth, I just ache and ache and ache.
It seems that I will die of thirst,
And could drink tea ice water until 11
PM.
I rush to get a drink in haste,
But cannot down it for that terrible
Will I ever get well; will the time ever come?
I cannot eat, I cannot sleep,
I cannot smoke, I don't like the dope.
The days are long, and the nights(oh,
dear).
rush to get a drink in haste.
My head, it roars, I can hardly hear.
My fingers are numb, I feel on the
bum;
Even the war doesn't interest me any more;
I don't try to think, even my brain is some.
I've had chickenpox, measles, and then some more;
But when the flu germ gets through dealin,'
I've had diseases by the score.
th! boy, won't it be a grand and
glorious feelin'?
FRANK JENNINGS, Minister.
We had instances by the source.
But nothing like this terrible flu
