PROFESSOR SEES PLACES
OF INTEREST IN EUROPE
Ruins in Old Italy Studied;
High Seas Encountered
Professor King of the architecture
department of the University, re
turned recently from a most inter
esting and thrilling trip abroad this
summer. He spent most of his time in
Italy, visiting places of greatest in
terest to a man of his profession, and
has returned with an interesting ac
count of his travels, both on sea, and
on European soil.
Professor King ’a first destination was
Palerma, the capital of Sicily, where he
spent five days in the eity and vicinity.
Be made a trip to the Qreek temple
at Segesta, the rains of which date
back 500 B. C. and are seven miles from
aay railroad station. The professor
considered his pilgrimage there well
worth while.
On the continent, in Italy, Professor
King spent several weeks in Borne,
Venice, Florence, Naples, Pompeii,
Pisa, Bologna, and Verona. Naturally
the many remaining examples of archi
tecture of the country were the chief
object of his visits to all of these
places.
Paris, and Versailles, where he saw
the table upon which the treaty of
peace of the recent war was signed,
were the next stopping places in Pro
fessor King’s travels. He also included
a trip to Belgium, visiting Antwerp,
Brussels and Malines before crossing
the channel for a brief stay in London.
Professor King remarked that in
Belgium it was easy to understand
what the front line must have been
like from the scenes which he saw
in the devastated area. Owing to lack
of time he did not visit the battle
fields.
On his return trip across the At
lantic, Professor King said, he spent
14 days^on the water in the midst of
hurricanes, cyclones and extremely
rough seas Which did not abate until
the steamer was within a day’s jour
ney of New York. At one time the
boat rolled to an angle of 45 degrees
without disaster. After two thrilling
and perilous weeks at sea the ship
finally landed at New York in safety.
Professor King was away three
months, two of which he spent on
European soil.
