| image number: | P0035973 |
| description: | This prefabricated house was one of 35 that were constructed for new faculty that were hired to meet the demand of a student population that more than doubled at the end of World War II. This image appears in the October 1946 Indiana Alumni Magazine, page 9. The home was probably built by National Homes of Lafayette, Indiana. NOTE: National Homes was owned by brothers James Price (ex 1933?), and George Price (BS 1939). The September 1950 edition of the Indiana Alumni Magazine has an article about the two. The foundation of 117 North Jefferson can be seen at extreme left. The home at extreme right is 127 North Jefferson. 123 North Jefferson would be built later in between 119 seen here and 127 at extreme right. Some information about these homes can be found in the Herman Wells presidential files Collection C213 with folder title "Housing - FHA Housing, 1947-1948". |
