If we learn the sub- ject and pass the course, the teacher has done all that we can ex- pect of him. Like any other employee, the teacher is entitled to go home to his family, to the golf course, or wherever he wishes when his day's work is done. But when he labors long hours for us and with us over and beyond the obligations of his position, he earns a friendship, a respect, and a gratitude which is hard to repay in any way and impossible to repay with a few printed words. We are a big class. We would like to dedicate this book to a man with a big personality, a big sense of humor, and a big heart -Professor Hans G. Erneman of the Mechanical Engineering De- partment. We are proud of Mr. Erneman and as the years roll by, we sincerely hope that he will be proud of us. The mechanical engineering courses are not easy. Hans has the thankless job of teaching us how to think. Most people don't like to think, it's hard work. lt's harder work to teach the student to think clearly. The long list of successful engineers that are Erneman-trained bear witness to the rare ability of this educator. Engineering theory is fresh in our minds now. With the high degree of specialization in industry, we may use only a portion of what we have learned here. We will forget much in time, but by his example and his patience and his qualities as an instructor, Hans Erneman has taught many of us how to think and this will never forget-and we will never forget Hans P 1 71, wi I. ., ,H I Z2 .v, .

We at Lawrence Tech are proud of the close relationship that exists between the faculty, administration, and student body. President E. George Lawrence set the key note for an informal approach to student and faculty problems when he announced that his office was always open to any student or teacher on campus who had a problem. This attitude has been reflected down through the departments of the school. The faculty and administration of the school have always felt that one of their major functions was that of guidance. Guidance not only in the curricular field, but in any phase of public or pri- vate endeavor where the knowledge and experience of the faculty and administration can stand the student in good stead. Av It has long been recognized that the mere technical ground- ing of a student in the rudiments of his profession is falling far short of the training which a college can give a student. The faculty of Lawrence Tech are picked men who have proven their ability to fit the student in the best possible manner for his role in society. ir We shall long remember the example of the staff of this institution an-d we hope that we have carried away not only some of the technical knowledge but some of the ideals of the profes- sion and the school.

TULLY ALICE WOODS Q90 The experts can be wrong! Throughout the colleges and universities in the nation, we the class of l95O, half a million strong, have proved them wrong. An overwhelming majority of the male students graduating this June attended college under the GI Bill and Lawrence Tech was no exception . . . We were the War Babies. When we enrolled in surprisingly large numbers in I946, the experts said that the ex-servicman would be a miserable flop as a student: yet here we are, cap and gown, diploma, and a big grin for the experts who didn't think we had the goods. We are the largest class in Lawrence Tech history, three- hundred twenty-one strong, but this is a distinction that we do not wish to keep. We want to see Lawrence Tech continue to grow and we feel confident that it will. We are proud of our school and just a little bit proud of ourselves. The Freshman Class of i946 had an enrollment of one thousand men. Who can blame us itat graduation we bust a little at the seams with pride. For a big class, we have been surprisingly close as a social group and in our class endeavors. We have had four class presi- dents in the day school section and it would have been difficult to choose better men. Joseph Ouellette led the class in l946, William Haddow in l947, John Erickson in l9-48, and Gerard Burke was our Senior Class President. C-erard Burke and Robert Miner, the Night Senior Class President were largely responsible for most of the Senior Class functions and we the Sen-ior would like to say Thank You tor a job well done.

Approximately 320 men will receive degrees from the College of Engineering and the Col- lege of Business Administration. While the class was too large for the stuzlents to get to know all of their classmates intimately, the class functions were well attended and the class was a more tightly knit body than would have appeared possible. This was largely due to the splendid work of the two class presidents and their staffs of officers. Gerard Burke was the president of the day school senior class and Robert Miner was the president of the night school senior class. Class activities for the year included a Senior Stag, a Senior Prom, Senior Class meetings, and the publication of the L-Book. NIGHT SCHOOL OFFICERS President ............

Every first and third Thursday of the month a familiar call rings forth from the old library. The meeting will please come to order. The Lawrence Tech Student Council is in session. Although the student council never makes any earth shaking decisions, the precept of self-government is fostered at Law- rence Tech. The President ofthe Student Council is usually a graduating Senior. This past year Richard F. Larkins served the student body as their president. The major concerns of the Student Council are Lambda Iota Tau Awards, to seniors, Tech News and L-Book publications, Activity Awards, and relations between students and faculty and administration members. The council of '49-'50 became deeply embroiled in these items. Many of the meetings were hard to miss as arguments became heated. Some of the orations would have been a credit to a Thomas Paine. The best remembered incidents of the year were few but spirited. Perhaps the greatest achievement was the re-institution of Founders' Day which drew a capacity crowd to Lawrence Tech for this open house affair. The other busi- ness items that the council handled in fine fashion were library donations, student placement, accreditation efforts, and allotment of student activity funds. w na ss um ss ss mms 2-I IFR r A sg. , x- I endow S N. 3 'af 1 wi - B xy 1mm,kf1 Qmnq A-an -mamlfjj cwwdlma Dag The one day of the year when the clubs, organizations, and engineering departments get their chance to show off their com- petitive spirit is Founders' Day. This year the men representing the various entries worked to the theme of Student Participation as set forth by Founders' Day Committee Chairman, John Lauer. For the first time in the history of Lawrence Tech the newly appointed Board of Trustees toured the main building judging the extensive and interesting exhibits. ln the final balloting it was Mr. Earl Pellerin's Architectural department's new club room, designed, constructed, and furn- ished by Architectural students, which won top honors for the engineering departments. The most recent organization on the Tech campus, the Double EE Club, received the perpetual trophy for the clubs and organizations. An estimated crowd of l0,000 people visited the campus to witness the engineering application of Theory and Practice. The evening was climaxed by a free dance at the Hackett Field House sponsored by the Inter-Fraternity Council, Zydvwewf Mr. Bagby shows off his Plant Layout project which was featured during Founders' Day.

They ranged from little card games in a student's basement to big name band dances at the Coliseum. ln the center of all these events, providing the initial spark, are the fraternity men of Lawrence Tech. These men also form the background for serious work here at the college. For one of the many aims of all fraternities is to make constructive contributions to the general well- being of the college itself. ' Fraternity life is the spice in a college education. lt builds up a circle of acquaintances for member students. lt provides group discussion activities. lt educates in the art of social graces. lt instills the principles of brotherhood, comradeship, and humility. These influences make college students better citi- zens and better professional men. ,AL ,, , Y 1amZcZcz7am cw President E. C. Lawrence and Mr. Victor Basso receiving Lambda Iota Tau Certificates from Chairman John Lauer. The highest possible award that any student at Lawrence Tech can earn is the coveted Lambda lota Tau key. This heart-shaped key, emblematic of membership in the Lambda lota Tau Honor Fraternity, marks a student who has combined scholastic proficiency with leadership and active participation in extra-curricular activities. Dean Russell Lawrence, the founder of Lawrence Institute of Technology, was the guid- ing hand in the institution of this honor award. Lambda lota Tau was originated in l934, just two years after the school was founded, and awards have been made annually every year since, with the single exception of the war year of l945 when extra-curricular activities were virtually non-existent on campus. To be eligible for election to the honor society, a student must have completed his sophomore year, must have completed six terms with a minimum of B average, and must have amassed a prescribed number of activity points which varies directly with the number of terms that the student spent at LIT and inversely with his scholastic average. This year for the first time in the fraternity's history two honorary memberships were voted to two men in recognition of their splendid efforts in the fields of Lawrence Tech educational and extra-curricular functions. President El. C. Lawrence received one of the awards and the other went to Mr. Victor Basso, the president of Lawrence Tech's first Stu- dent Council. czmfala 7am me joseph Anderson Victor Bleimeister V Arthur Dahike Robert Fontaine john Gardner Osie jackson Leonard lankowski amide: 7am George Lagergren Richard F.

Since that time, Alpha Gamma Upsilon has obtained the status of a national organization through the founding of its tenth chapter. As in the past, A.G.U. members strive to participate in many of the extra-curricular activities. A few of these activities include, student government organizations, S.A.E., A.C.S., and S.A.lVl. Several men of Epsilon chapter have shown their ability in sports, par- ticularly in the fencing and rifle teams. The fraternity's social calendar has never had a dull moment throughout the past school year. Bowling matches, stag parties, dances and baseball matches against other clubs and organizations are but a few. The high spots of the fraternity for the past year include Alpha Gamma Upsilon Found- ers' Day celebration held at the Club Eagle, October 8, l949, the annual Fall Frolic and the presentation of the most valuable player award of Tech's basketball team. The members of Alpha Gamma Upsilon have worked to stimulate the increase of stu- dent participation in the student government and other various activities of the school.

Peter Ciindice Kappa Sigma Kappa, represented on the Lawrence Tech campus by the Michigan Beta Chapter, is the second of three national fraternities that sprang from the Virginia Military Institute during the expansion period following the civil war. The three chapters in the order of their affiliation are: Alpha Tau Omega in I865, Kappa Sigma Kappa in I867, and Sigma Nu in l869. During the first half century of growth, Kappa Sigma Kappa confined its expansion to southern colleges and universities. However, since then, the fraternity has expanded on an inter-national scale. After eighty-three years, it now has forty-six national chapters and four inter-national chapters. The foreign chapters are represented in Canada, New Zealand and Tasmania. Some of the outstanding social events of the past year were the Halloween party and dance held at the Wings Airport, two formal initiation banquets at Vannelli's and Thomas' Edgewater Inn, a big get-together with our brother chapter, Michigan Alpha of the Detroit Institute of Technology, and many other well-attended functions. Kappa Sigma Kappa has always taken a large role in school functions and this year won the second prize for organizations in the Founder's Day Celebration. - W ,Tv H. me-ff The Wittnauer Choraleers have nothing on the mellow- voiced offerings of this mighty ensemble of Kappa Sigma Kappa Pledges. Since their concerts were given during the noon hour, LIT has come to regard the group as the creators of the finest dinner music available on any campus. Fda kwa mazda As the school year of l949-50 comes to a close, the members of Phi Kappa Upsilon can look back on a year of success and progress. Both Alpha and Delta Chapters had banner years both fraternally and socially. Two pledge seasons were conducted with twenty-one new members coming into the Delta Chap- ter and a similar number entering the night school Alpha Chapter. ln addition to the formal degrees conducted by the fraternity, many social functions were heldg including two pledge mixers, a hayride, a weiner roast, a Halloween Dance, several stag parties, picnics, and the Annual Dinner Dance. The past year saw the fraternity ma ke great strides with its building pro- gram. The Board of Directors had received tremendous cooperation from the membership and the plans will be in full swing in the near future.

Rho Delta Phi Fraternity was founded in September of l938 by a group of night school students at Lawrence Tech. Ten years later, the Beta Chapter received its charter and this second chapter was made up of day school students. In I9-49, the Alpha Omega Chapter was formed which is the alumni chapter of the fraternity. Rho Delta Phi is purely a social fraternity and its primary function was and still is the fostering good fellowship and friendship and the fraternal spirit of its brothers. The frat- ernity, however, has always taken an active part in any movement or activity which furthers the interests of the student body, the staff, or any other group in the college community.

Rho Delt took a leading part in the founding of the lnter- fraternity Council and the Rho Delts pride themselves in the cordial relations which they maintain with the other fraternities on campus. The fraternity maintains an inter-chapter bowling league throughout the winter months along with a regular agenda of social affairs, both stag and drag . On the more serious side, the fraternity has initiated a building fund to be used for a fraternity house on the new campus. Rho Delt loses many members with the current graduating class, but it wishes them and their classmates the best of luck as they leave Lawrence Tech to take their place in society.

The council is made up of two representatives from each member fraternity, Alpha Camma Upsilon, Kappa Sigma Kappa, Phi Kappa Upsilon, and Rho Delta Phi. Meetings are held monthly to discuss problems that have arisen that are of a fraternal nature and to plan inter-fraternity social functions. The most ambitious undertaking of the bosly is the sponsoring of the annual lnter-fra- ternity Dance. Last year's dance which was the second such affair since the forming of the group, was held at the Shangri La Club. All who attended had a good time and an even larger affair is planned for the coming year. On the serious side, the IFC is charged with the responsibility of setting up and enforc- ing the rules and regulations governing pledging activities and pledging periods. All pros- pective fraternity men are investigated by the council to see that their scholastic averages are up to par. The chairmanship of the IFC rotates annually and for the past school year, Lee Crom- well of Kappa Sigma Kappa acted as chairman, with Harold Price and john Belevich of Rho Delta Phi serving as secretary-treasurer. . . just as the fraternities are the spice in college life-the organizations are the variety. Whether large or small, there is an organization which will inter- est each and every student on the Tech campus. Some are large and others are small. Some do big things and others do little things. The Aero Club designed and constructed a midget racing plane, which was in active competition at the Nation's Air Races. Without organizations college life would be dull and mostly uninteresting. To the students who take advantage of the organizations by participating in them we say stay active. To those students who do not belong to organiza- tions and reap extra-curricular knowledge we say become active. I I g A.C.S. OFFICERS President ..........

The Chem Club here at Lawrence Tech is an inobtrusive organization. lt doesn't haze its members in the halls or wildly publicize social events or meetings but it does promote chemical education and it does have its share of social activities. The club furthers education in chemistry in four major programs. Three of them are in the field of visual education methods. Movies on an endless variety of subjects are shown at each meeting, The motion pictures presentations range from simple measuring devices to the complex forms of manufacturing in the chemical industry. The club owns a slide film projector. When a subject arises that merits a full treat- ment, the project is transferred to slide films for best possible results. The third program takes in the display cases in the vicinity of the chem office. This service not only aids Chem Club members but also presents the material to the student body as a whole. The final program features informative lectures by men who are prominent in the chem- ical field. lt is here that the latest improvements and methods are revealed to students in training. The clubis social activities are of the usual variety and are spaced throughout the year. ' 1 ..,.. ii ' ziaggacieig Pictured are the officers of the CES for the 1949-50 school year. Prominent in the minds of the Civil Engineering students is the year l947. At that time a Civil Engineering Society was formed and also the C,E. curriculum was greatly improved and enlarged by Professor William Menzel. Operating in close conjunction with the department, the club helps all concerned in keeping up to date with theory and practice. A not too scant existence is maintained through the acquisition of dues from C.E.S. mem- bers. Other revenue is obtained by doing outside work for local concerns. During the past year this extra money was used to purchase books for the Tech library. The Civil Engineering Society is one of the smaller organizations on the campus but is also one of the more active. l .-- 22' The EE Club is one of the newest and fastest growing organizations on the campus. It was organized November 4, i949 by students in the electrical en- gineering curriculum here at Lawrence Tech, under the sponsorship of Mr. Alan Warnick of the EE Department. The purpose of the organization is to encourage and broaden the engineer- ing experience of the student beyond that ordinarily encountered in formal curricular activities. To accomplish this purpose, the club has provided guest speakersg tours through industrial plants, factories, and research laboratoriesg and has afforded the student member an opportunity to construct various types of electrical apparatus. Another major objective of the club is to establish their own research lab- oratory on the new campus site of the college. The EE Club held its first election of officers on November ll, i9-49, and these officers served until April l9, l95O. Below are the officers for the two terms of office.

The purpose of the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences is the advancement and dissem- ination of knowledge of the theory and practice of the aeronautical sciences. Activities of the Lawrence Tech student branch of the IAS include the presentation of motion pictures and lectures of various aeronautical subjects, the holding of field trips, and attendance at meetings and discussions given by the Senior Detroit Section of the IAS. Members of the student branch of the IAS are permitted to utilize most of the services and the facilities of the senior section and they may take part in any of its deliberations. The Senior Section sponsors competition among the student chapters in the State of Michigan, usually in the form of a technical paper which is prepared and presented by one of the student branch members at one of the senior section meetings. Lawrence Tech has been quite successful in the past in walking off with more than its share of the student awards. One of the highlights of the past year was a trip by plane to Cleveland, to tour the N. A. C. A. flight propulsion labora- tories. The Lawrence Tech student branch is under the faculty sponsorship of Profes- sor C-eorge Martin, the head of the aero- nautical engineering department. -',. 4 'L 4, Wad OFFICERS President ............

Bagby presented the idea that the Masonic students form a club. Mr. Otis E. Bower did much of the ground work for the formation of such an organization by contacting Masonic students to ascertain their interest and opinions. Several meetings were held during the year, at which qualifications for membership and various other phases of organizing a club were discussed. There was little social activity during the early stages of the organization. The i948-i949 school year saw the actual formation of this Masonic club which was named The Lawrence Institute of Technology Square Club. On January 20, l949, the Student Council was petitioned for campus recognition which was denied, because the con- stitution did not conform to the prescribed regulations. The necessary changes were made and on March I7, I949, recognition was extended. Professor H. L. Byerlay was the faculty advisor during the first year the Square Club was in existence. In token of appreciation for the use L. of college facilities, a set of chimes was presented and installed in the college li- brary to indicate the changing of classes. During the past two years many social activities such as, card and stag parties, and dinner dances, have been enjoyed by a membership larger than any other club on the campus. Professor Lloyd C. Bagby is the fac- ulty advisor for the i949-i950 school year. 74.4 Saaielq fam fffalaaaoemend of Wlcmayemealf .laavzewce 'kai S. 14. 776. Smdent Elura President ..... Vice-President . . .

The presentation was made October 27, 1949, during a special meeting held in the Rackham Educational Memorial Building. The Society for Advancement of Management is the recognized national professional society of management people in industry, commerce, government, and education. It rep- resents no special interests but is motivated by a selfless zeal to spread the benefits of scien- tific management whenever management is required. Professor Lloyd C. Bagby, faculty sponsor, organized a student chapter at Lawrence Tech in June of l949. The charter was awarded on October 27, l949, by the Detroit Chapter of SAM. The student chapter here at Lawrence Tech is sponsored by and holds its meetings with the Detroit Chapter. The SAM meetings are held three times a month at the Rackham Educational Building. The members participate actively in all meetings, discussions, and social functions. ln addition, the student chapter holds meetings in the school to keep the members informed of the management advancements made in industry. Membership in the society is open to everyone who wishes to work into the manage- ment side of industry. The only requirement made by the student chapter is that the stu- dent candidate for membership be of sophomore standing or better. aciefqaf ,4 ' agmeew The year i938 saw the introduction of the Society of Automotive Engineers to Lawrence Tech. Night school lays claim to the organization of the S.A.E. on the campus. However, little was done in the way of student activities until after the war. ln l946 with an unusually large day school enrollment, Faculty Advisor Dr. Gail Brewington and the student chairman Albert Nash displayed their leader- ship by signing a new group of students to increase the membership to more than l5O. With an organization of this size, Lawrence Tech applied for a stu- dent section charter which was granted April ll, l947. Al Nash supervised an efficient gro .ip of officers which provided the stu- dents with interesting speakers and technical movies. Tours through indus- trial plants and research laboratories proved popular. The student section also had a great deal to do with organizing the first Student-Senior joint Meeting. ' The Society, along with S.A.E. members from the University of Michigan toured the University's pet laboratories. An inspection of the Detroit Tank Arsenal also took place. The S.A.E. is not an organization interested solely in the manufacture of automobiles. At one time, however, it was dedicated to automotive produc- tion procedures but has now spread to the aircraft and gasoline fields. Because the three go hand-in-hand, they combined and are now under the same study procedure in the society. Since almost a classification of engineering position may be found in the automotive, aeronautical, and fuels field, it is to your advantage to become affiliated with the S.A.E.

Functions of the club include awarding letter sweaters: supervising Varsity sport affairs such as Homecoming games, dances, and sports banquets. Distributing Varsity identifica- tion cards and Varsity pinsg and presenting awards to the graduating seniors. To be eligible, a student must have won a Varsity letter from one Lawrence Tech Ath- letic sport activity. He must also be accepted by the club as a whole, the membership com- mittee, and the Athletic department. The student's personality, leadership ability, and sportsmanlike conduct are the points considered. At present the club is composed of 85 members from the sports provided at the college.

Carl Einhorn WALLY CROLL During the past school year the staff of the TECH NEWS published l76 pages of copy for the undergraduate students of Lawrence Tech. Under the leadership of Editor Wallace Croll the staff put together two issues which were outstanding in newspaper make-up for college newspapers. For the Homecoming game last year the staff formulated the idea of running two colors. The BEAT IOWA in large blue type with the Blue Devil superimposed over the front page must have brought the basketball team good luck. For they won this game, from a Big-IO college 54 to 49. During the open house at Founders' Day a 16-page issue of the TECH NEWS was handed to incoming guestsg providing them with a complete history of the college plus floor plans of the building directing them to the exhibits. With the help of the Assistant Editors, Richard Larkins, Philip Mulligan, Jim Nicholson, and the able cartoon efforts of Carl Groop the TECH NEWS was a source of interest to the faculty, administration, and students of Lawrence Tech. gr.

Stan Kukawa and Burton Harrison took the picturesg Dick Larkins and Dick Sinko did the writing, Harold Price did the editingg and everybody that we could beg, borrow, or beat over the head, did the leg work. Many members of the Senior Class who had nothing to do with the actual writing of the book nevertheless had a major part of the work and responsibility for the publication of the book. Gerard Burke, the president of the Senior Class, was of invaluable assistance in too many ways to mention here. John Erickson collected much of the raw information until illness in his family forced his retire- ment from the staff. Irene Salva- tore designed our cover and Roy Lewis did most of the interior art work. Frank Moderacki, Ed Pawl- ak, John Gorman, and Ed Smolenski did the departmental leg workg and Wally Croll made the arrangements with the printers. DICK SINKO, Sports Editor lat f T5f This year's L-Book staff was for- tunate in having two very fine pho- tographers in the persons of William Harrison and Stan Kukawa.

In posting the first perfect season ever enjoyed by an LIT frosh basketball team, the freshman beat four unbeaten teams, three of whom finished their seasons with Lawrence Tech administering their only defeat. The fine offensive and airtight defensive play of the fresh- man squad served notice on the holdover varsity men that they had best look to their Iaurels, because several of the members of this freshman team are cinches to clinch regular positions on next year's varsity. The splendid showing of the freshman squad was a tre- mendous personal accomplishment for Freshman Coach Carl Campbell, who was coaching his first year in collegiate com- petition. Carl was one of the all-time high scorers at LIT in his playing days and he has definitely proven that he can make the grade in the coaching profession. His team's work on defense called forth praise from many rival coaches. His team held high-scoring St. Stanislaus to 83 points in two ball games, which is about what they were accustomed to getting in one. The frosh journeyed to Buffalo to play Niagara University's frosh and surprised the Easterners with a 67-43 shellacking. Another outstanding upset was the win over the Windsor Sterlings. This was a team that was good enough to play the Harlem C-lobe-trotters. . i' Lit Frosh 7 I 67 49 76 64 55 64 68 57 50 80 57 66 77 65 70 52 67 Player Burrell ...... Wagner . . Pett .....

To Coach Walt Bazylewicz, this baseball season may well have been his hardest, but by no means the least forgettable to himself or to Lawrence Tech. Bazy's squad compiled a record unequalled by any previous Lawrence Tech nine, l4 wins against only tive losses. Early in the season, Coach Bazylewicz instilled in his team a will to win, and win they did. The veteran squad won nine straight games before losing to Hillsdale College on a road trip. Highlighting the season were wins over Bowling Creen University, University of Toledo, Findlay College, Ashland College and Defiance College: all good baseball schools. The I4-5 record of the team is even more significant in view of the fact that the Blue Devil squad played only four of the nineteen games on their home diamond. And inclement weather necessitated all of the games being played within a thirty-day period. FR '. I., 'f ff, TECH .....

Lawrence Tech's fencing team enjoyed a very successful season, this year, winning five out of six matches against some of the toughest competition in the middlewest. The team's only loss was at the hands of Big Ten Champion, University of Illinois, by the close score of l4Vz-l2Vz. LIT won victories over the University of Cincinnati, Fenn College, Case Institute of Technology, Tri-State College, and Highland Park Junior College. The team climaxed the season by winning the Michigan Inter-Collegiate Fencing Cham- pionship over strong teams from Wayne University, University of Detroit, and other teams throughout the state. Five of the team members are lost to the squad via the graduation route. The greatest loss will be the departure of Dick Yasenchak, one of the finest fencers in Lawrence Tech history. Dick posted winning percentages for his bouts in all four years of competition and in his final two years he amazed midwestern fencers, winning 38 bouts while losing only one. Louis Klei, one of the mainstays of the strong saber squad, receives his degree in June along with Dick Stickley of the saber squad. Paul Engle, the best epee man on the squad, is another loss which will be hard to fill. Tom Howell, another epee man rounds out the list of graduates. At the close of the regular season, Dick Yasenchak and Leon Yulkowski fenced in both the Regional and National Inter-Collegiate Tournaments and both carried off medals. r W, . ' mm ye? wa.

The Lawrence Tech Rifle Team is one of the most active organizations in the college. lt is a result ofa student's idea that some means to obtain a school letter be made accessible to night school students. A notice appeared in the TECH NEWS in October I937, stating that a meeting for the formation of a rifle team would be held on the l7th of that month. The rifle team was officially started with l5 members. The Blue Devils hold shoulder to shoulder matches with big name colleges throughout the United States.

Willie Wilhelm and Lew Alward have undertaken the job of building up a team that can represent the school both in postal matches and field matches. l During the past year the pistol team fired a series of postal matches and traveled to Chicago for the Midwest Pistol Shoot. emuia eczm Left to Right lBack Rowl: John Landis, Don Ryder, John Calvert and John Swiecicki.. lFront Rowl: Lee Cromwell, Marvin Smith, Tod Malpas: and Coach Ralph Emlg. Lawrence Tech's tennis team wound up their l95O season with an even break for the year, five wins against five losses. This is not quite up to the records posted by the teams of the previous years, but the schedule was an ambitious one and the crippling loss to the team of their number one singles man, John Landis, kept the team from once again going over the .SOO mark. This marked the fifth year for Coach Emig and he has seen his teams win 34 and lose 22 over the tive year span.

Machining operations performed on these parts include lathe work, milling. slotting, hobbing, broaching, thread grinding, surface grind- ing, external grinding, jig grinding and lapping. Much of this work was performed on special equipment designed and made by Vinco. SPLINE GAGES Vinco pioneered in the development of spline gaging and created inspection and manufacturing equipment which now makes possible the absolute control of all essential elements ol' spline gages during production. Vinco is now the accepted leader in the field of spline gages. Their involute, serration and straight sided spline plug and ring gages set the pace for accuracy. That is why men who know call Vinco whenever they need spline gages or splined parts. all or VINCO GEARS The ability for achieving accuracies of very high degree has brought Vinco into the field of high quality and commercial gears. Jet engines and radar equipment are two modern developments that require gears accurate in all elements to .0001 or .0002. Vinco-produced commercial gears are more accurate and have a finer finish than generally found in this gear classification. That is why Vinco should be called when good gearing is needed. GEAR ROLLING INSPECTION FIXTURES The fixture, shown at the left, is designed for inspection of gears being made in quantity pro- duction. It provides a fast, accurate check of concentricity, backlash. and rolling action. Fix- tures are made for external or internal gears and will accommodate any tooth form . . . spur, helical, spiral or worm. ..
