Here is the 1937 issue of Debris, the school yearbook of Purdue University, with photos of Amelia Earhart during her brief time at Purdue. There’s a photo of her with 2 other coeds sitting on the nose of her Electra (p.149), also a nice candid shot of her with Purdue’s Board Of Trustees Chairman David Ross (p.134) …. even a photo of coeds reading postings on the announcement board in the dorm and you see a newspaper clipping with the headline “Amelia Lands In Honolulu” (p. 332). This yearbook is in quite nice condition, it has some light foxing on the first page but is a great book and was well cared-for during its 85-years (and counting). A wonderful book to examine in great detail !! Also in this issue you will find other famous names such as Glen W Martin (later Lt. General Martin as Vice Commander of the Strategic Air Command), several sports legends such as Cecil Isbell (1st round pick in 1938 by the Green Bay Packers), etc. In 1926 Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic, as a passenger. She loved aviation and became a celebrity as a woman aviator and began to give lectures, fly in shows, and set records. In one notable incident she flew First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt over Washington, D.C. Amelia Earhart flew solo across the Atlantic in 1932, and in 1935 became the first person to fly solo from Hawaii to the mainland. In 1935 she set speed records traveling from Los Angeles to Mexico City, and from Mexico City to New York. Purdue University hired Amelia Earhart as a faculty member to counsel female students on opportunities, and in 1937 Purdue gave her a plane. Amelia Earhart was determined to fly around the world, and with Fred Noonan as navigator, she began her round-the-world flight on June 1, 1937 (less than 1 month after this yearbook was distributed). Near the end of the trip, Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan missed their expected landing on Howland Island in the Pacific, and their fate is still uncertain. Theories include crashing in the ocean, crashing on Howland Island or a nearby island without the ability to contact help, being shot down by the Japanese, or being captured or killed by the Japanese. AMELIA EARHART AT PURDUE UNIVERSITY In 1934, Purdue University President Edward C. Elliott heard Amelia Earhart speak at a luncheon and was so impressed with her talk that he asked if she would visit Purdue and give a lecture for the women students. Earhart spoke at a banquet at Purdue on October 17, 1934, and discussed “Activities for Women After College.” After several talks with President Elliott, a contract was negotiated in 1935, stating that Amelia Earhart would be employed by Purdue University as a visiting faculty member at a salary of $2,000 per year. From the autumn of 1935 until her disappearance in July 1937, Earhart served as Consultant in the Department for the Study of Careers for Women and Technical Advisor in the Department of Aeronautics (part of the School of Mechanical Engineering) for Purdue University. Earhart was attracted to Purdue because at the time it was the only university in the United States with its own fully equipped airport. She was also impressed that practical mechanical and engineering training was available without discouragement to the women students on campus. At Purdue, Amelia lectured, conducted conferences with Purdue faculty and students, and initiated studies on new career opportunities for women. Perhaps most importantly, she served as an example of a successful modern woman for the female students at Purdue. While working at Purdue, Amelia stayed in South Hall (now called Duhme Hall), a women’s residence hall on campus. South Hall students vied with each other to sit at Amelia’s table in the dining room for meals. Buttermilk became an overnight favorite beverage on campus because it was Amelia’s choice. The coeds were not supposed to sit with their elbows on the table, and Amelia, being somewhat informal, would usually eat with both elbows on the table, her chin cupped in her hands. When the students asked why they couldn’t sit with their elbows on the table, the standard reply was “As soon as you fly the Atlantic, you may!” Amelia’s husband, George Palmer Putnam, first put the idea of a “flying laboratory” airplane for research into President Elliott’s mind. Elliott thought about it for a while, until the autumn of 1935, when at a dinner party at his home, Amelia outlined her dreams for women and aviation, which seemed very similar to Elliott’s own ideals. Amelia also spoke of her desire to conduct studies on how long-distance flying affected pilots physically and mentally. Before the evening was over, fellow guest David Ross offered to donate $50,000 as a gift toward the cost of providing a machine suitable for the flying laboratory. Further donations totaling $30,000 in cash and equipment were received from J. K. Lilly (of the Eli Lilly drug company), Vincent Bendix, and manufacturers Western Electric, Goodrich, and Goodyear. The $80,000 formed the basis of “The Amelia Earhart Fund for Aeronautical Research.” The primary objective was to develop scientific and engineering data of vital importance to the aviation industry. The Earhart Fund financed Amelia’s “flying laboratory,” in the form of a new Lockheed Electra airplane specially outfitted for her at the Lockheed factory. It was delivered to Amelia in 1936, and it was in this plane that she disappeared during her world flight attempt in 1937. In 1940, George Palmer Putnam donated Amelia Earhart’s papers, photographs, medals, and a few personal belongings to Purdue University. In 2002, Putnam’s granddaughter, Sally Putnam Chapman, donated an additional group of Amelia Earhart personal papers to Purdue. These included personal letters, poems, and Amelia’s famous pre-marital agreement. The Purdue University Libraries Special Collections now owns the largest, most comprehensive collection of materials relating to Amelia Earhart in the world. ********************************************************************************* I appreciate your business and strive to provide the best customer service to every buyer.
