Built At Babson Institute In Massachusetts
Ground-Breaking Ceremony On May 30. Copy of
The Chronicle To Be Deposited In Cbriterstone
What does our Earth look like to,
a spectator five thousand miles out,
in space? Within two years visi-j
tors to the college campus of Bab- (
son Institute of Business Adminis
tration, in Wellesley, Mass., will be
able to see for themselves what it;
looks like. ■"By then”, according;
to an announcement made today by-
Dr. Edward B. Hinckley, president;
of the college, "work will have been,
completed on the world’s largest*
revolving globe of the world: Ev
ery continent, country and signifi
cant topographic feature will be
accurately shown on the great steel
planet. The globe, having a diame
ter of about thirty feet, will repre
sent the w'orld on a scale of approx
imately twenty-four miles to the
inch. Weighing twenty-one tons,
the steel shell will be balanced onj
a six-ton shaft on a movable ten-
ton carriage on top of a concrete j
foundation designed to carry a load'
of seventy-five tons. Electric mo-;
tors will rotate the world on its ax- j
as to represent accurately the pas- j
is and revolve it on its carriage so j
cessive seasons of the year. Flood
lights will represent sunlight; ul-j
sage of day and night and the sue- j
tra violet rays (black light) will 1
permit the use of special effects.
Three hundred major geographical
points of interest will be illustrat
ed”.
The globe will be housed in a,
new auditorium to be constructed
on the 400-acre college campus. In
this building, using the terrestrial |
globe as a mammoth visual educa- j
tion aid, will be held such Babson'
Institute classes as those dealing j
with "World Economics and U. S. i
Business”, "Future of Private and
Corporate Investments Abroad”,
"and •‘Importance^ of World Wars”.
It is expected, also, that future geo- 1
graphical, geo-political, military,
labor-management and economic,
congresses will convene here. With
in the corner stone will be deposit
ed copies of the 400 newspapers
having Mr. Babson’s Weekly Col
umn—same to be opened up 100
years hence
At four o’clock Memorial Day,
May 30, ground breaking ceremon
ies will be held on the campus of
Babson Institute, in Wellesley,
Mass. Following introductory re
