Staged photograph of two rowers in a boat and a "swimmer" in Ogden Field. The field, which was derisively nicknamed "Ogden Bog" by the students, was the home of the Armour Institute and Illinois Tech track and football field. Hermann Hall was built on the site of Ogden Field, and The Bog, Illinois Tech's student recreation and dining center, was named after the former athletic venue. This photograph was printed in the 1955 installment of The Integral, Illinois Tech's yearbook. Photographer unknown. Date of photograph is unknown. Date listed is approximate.
