On June 16, Francis Field will be rededicated in a ceremony beginning at 5 p.m. that will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the 1904 Olympics and the 150th anniversary of the University. Francis Gymnasium was finished in 1903 by the Olympics Games Committee and was one of the buildings used in the third modern Olympic Games, the first Olympics held in the Western Hemisphere. After the rededication, a reception will be held in the Athletic Complex for the 2004 St. Louis torch-bearers and special guests. On June 17, the torch (pictured, 1967) will come through St. Louis — one of just four American cities to host the global torch run (Los Angeles, Atlanta and New York are the others). On its route throughout St. Louis, the torch will enter campus from Big Bend Boulevard, go around the track, go back out and down Big Bend through University City. It will then proceed south on Skinker Boulevard, up the steps of Brookings Hall and back down the steps into Forest Park, where a celebration is planned. Current estimated times are for the torch to enter Francis Field at 7:50 p.m., and be on the Brookings steps at 8:23 p.m.
