S. ALLISON L. C. MONIN F. W. GUNSAULUS F. U. SMITH H. M. RAYMOND Fifteen X X % x+ OJC MR. F. U. SMITH In the resignation of Mr. Frederick Urling Smith as Comptroller of the Armour Institute of Technology, there comes to mind many evidences of the growth and development of our city, especially in educational lines within the last thirty years. Mr. Smith was at the right hand of Mr. Philip D. Armour when he was devising means and ways for helping the youth of the middle west by creating the Armour Institute. Mr. Smith met Mr. George V. Childs who had in- fluenced Mr. Drexel of Philadelphia. Mr. Smith’s former home, to establish an institution like the Pratt Institute of Brooklyn and the Cooper Institute of New York City. He heard these men discuss the matter of education with Mr. Armour, and he became closely allied with the new institution. For twenty-five years Mr. Smith has appeared upon the platform at Commencement time with his annual report as Comptroller. He has been a model of courtesy, gentility, wisdom and loyalty in the presence of thousands of students. The Institute itself would feel bereaved if it were not for the fact that he goes to his rest or pleasure as he will, at the close of the current year, and he goes in perfect health of body and mind to enjoy with his good wife many recollections of his labors on the Executive Council of the Institute, and especially the influence he has had and the participation which has been his in the new plans for the Armour Institute of Technology, when its walls shall echo with the tread of the thousands of students and teachers who shall throng its new and larger home at Windsor Park. Dr. F. W. Gunsaulus. Sixteen x x. X X i ALTHOUGH Armour Institute has been in existence only a short time it lias a very remarkable and interesting history. W hen Mr. Joseph Armour died he left a bequest of one hundred thousand dollars for the purpose of building a Mission in Chicago for church, school, and educational purposes. To this his brother, Philip Dan forth Armour, added a large sum to complete and outfit the building. The building was opened in 1886. Kver ready to help those who wished to help themselves, Mr. Armour built at various times, several large fiat buildings in the neighborhood of the Mission, the revenue from which served to make it as far as possible self-sus- taining. To the religious work, a free dispensary and library were added, the latter in charge of Mrs. Julia A. Beveridge. Mrs. Beveridge, believing that the usefulness of the Mission might be increased by taking up manual training, organized classes in wood-carving, clay-modeling, tile-making, and drawing for boys, and classes in domestic arts for girls. The success of her endeavors so pleased Mr. Armour that he de- cided to take up the educational work on a still larger scale than the size of the Mission would permit. Accompanied by Dr. Gunsaulus and Mr. John C. Black, Mr. Armour visited eastern institutions and, on his return to Chicago, decided to organize a school similar to Pratt or Drexel Institute. X A board of Trustees was organized, consisting of the following: Mr. Philip D. Armour, Mr. J. Ogden Armour, Mr. William J. Campbell. Mr. Philip D. Armour, Jr., and Mr. John C. Black. A charter was obtained from the state government and in 1892 the present main building” was erected. The first classes were organized in 1893. Dr. Gunsaulus, President, was assisted by a small, very efficient faculty, of which Prof. L. C. Monin. Mr. John E. Snow, and Mr. Edward D. Agle are still associated with the Institute. At the time of its foundation the Institute comprised the Armour Scientific Academy and the Technical College, as at present, and also the Departments of Domestic Arts, Commerce, Music, and Kindergarten Normal Training. The courses included in the Technical College were: Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Chemistry. Architecture, and Library Science. Between 1896 and 1901, the courses in Domestic Arts, Commerce and Music were drop- Seventeen 1R xo XX XX—XX XX XKHZXX XX OKI '___________i9 - THE CYCLE - 20 oic U! jr I III y! x; u ped one by one to meet the increasing demand for young men trained in ap- plied science. In 1901 co-education in the Academy was given up, so that tlie instruction is limited to young men. All the engineering courses have strengthened from year to year. Departments of Chemical Engineering and Fire Protection Engineering have been added to the other engineering depart- ments. Since 1902, Evening Classes and Summer Course have been offered and much good has been derived from these. An additional building known as Machinery Hall was erected in 1902, Mrs. P. I). Armour having donated the building, while Mr. J. Ogden Armour bore the expense of providing equipment. Mr. J. Ogden Armour also presented the Institute the ground known as Ogden Field, the opening of which greatly stimulated the interest in Athletics at Armour. The latest addition to the buildings of the Institute is Chapin Hall. During the summer of 1909, a fire occurred on the third floor of the “main building” in the store-room of the Chemical Department. Quite a loss was suffered, but was fully covered by insurance. The store-room was immediately rebuilt and is now very much better than ever. THE NEW A. I. T. THE Armour Institute of Technology, after twenty-five years of adjustment and re-adjustment to opportunities and conditions, has adopted its ma- tured plans for the future and has received a substantial gift of land and money from Mr. J. Ogden Armour, so that it will inaugurate and develop its com- pleted plans. The difficulty of obtaining a proper location has been great. It has cost one million dollars to find and obtain title to a contiguous parcel of land upon which the institution may stand and develop for all time. It will occupy the entire eighty acres near the lake south of the South Shore Country Club. This tract has been formerly known as the Windsor Park Golf Club. The land has been purchased, and is now turned over to the Armour Institute of Technology. The Institute has sought the advantage of a situation easily approached by the city and suburban service of the Illinois Central and the Baltimore Ohio Railways. Near the north portion of the land obtained is the Windsor Park station of the Illinois Central which will be reached in a few minutes from down town, when the railway and the Institute have completed their arrangements. The cross town electric lines at the north of the campus on 75th street are satisfactory. On the south end of the campus at 79th street are electric lines connecting the west and southwest sides with our location satis- factorily. The Baltimore Ohio almost touches the southwest corner of the eighty acres. The lake is within a few blocks and will furnish opportunity not only for water athletics, but hydraulic engineering and marine engineering, which must be undertaken in time. On the south are the great steel and cement plants of the Calumet district. These are not surpassed in the world for the uses of an institution whose students must visualize engineering pro- cesses in maufacture. Modern methods with us require visits to operative industries with which high grade engineering concerns itself. The tentative plans for our buildings with the accompanying sketch of their arrangement, constitute only a provisional study. They have required a gift of $5,000,000.00 for their erection and extra equipment. The whole scheme which has been worked out after a quarter of a century of experience Eighteen DOC DOC 2?= ?. 19-THE CYCLE - 20 OK x : . j I •e i x V n i i in the central west and in Chicago, means 'serviceableness in architecture as well as beauty and dignity. The buildings will constitute a piece of serious apparatus for the special work which any such institution must do at this time and in this region. DiO •+K Commodious as the buildings are and large as the location seems to be, the Armour Institute of Technology will limit its number of students to one thousand. The prospects at university foundations for the highest and most necessary research work in pure science are so large and secure that the Armour Institute of Technology will have only its responsibility in the central west for the training of engineers. The high schools of this region, especially the technical high schools, have their large responsibility in the preparation of students who expect in four years to receive our degree of Bachelor of Science in this or that kind of engineering. Our present method so expanded requires large room for apparatus and for safety, as well as the rigid adherence of a program of study and experiment under experts always serving the student to at all reach the ideal in view or to meet the situation in American engineer- ing. These problems are many and difficult. The world’s coal problem must be solved by what is most necessary in America—the use of our mighty wasted water power. The civil engineer must be ready to make Chicago, Duluth. Detroit, and perhaps other cities over into Altantic ports, and he must he trained to do his part in the future with those who worked so excellently in the past and bring the lakes and the gulf together by the river system which nature has partially provided. When the Armour Institute emerged from the enterprise of a coeduca- tional school and based its operations twenty years ago on the expectation of such a war which has come, it had no clearer vision than it has now of the necessities for engineering education of the highest grade in order that the problems of peace may be met and solved. It was a war of engineers when the battle was on, and American engineering greatly figured in winning the war. It is now a war of engineering against primitive and ignorant wastefulness of the forces of nature and the blundering of untrained men in politics which creates the necessity for such education as we assume to offer. One thousand young men fitted for leadership in mind and skill will be our constant and contributory effort in the direction of a better-working civilization. In the matter of athletics, we shall have soon plenty of room for such games and athletic developments as are not usually part of the physical training of American students. We hope to domesticate and enlarge the educational scope of many of the out-door sports which have been foreign to students or impossible, usually because there was not land enough, and secondly because of the time used upon inside gymnastic exercises. The buildings at present will occupy about eight acres. A large portion of the first forty acres will be left for future developments. The south forty acres of the tract will he devoted to such summer and winter out-door sports as will make out-door men supple and strong for their life work any where. Mr. Armour’s gift has not been unexpected. Mr. Armour and his associ- ates have studied this problem with the valuable help of other educators, es- pecially in more recent years, and has found that the only solution is an im- mediate and large gift that we may inaugurate here and now a foundation for technical training commensurate with the intention of the Armour friendship for such education and what must be the largest opportunity and duty. Our city is soon to be the greatest engineering city in the world. This work will be commenced and prosecuted as rapidly as possible, in view of our respon- sibilities in the case. Dr. F. W.

X -A, Four years ago on a bright September morning, the members of the class of 1920 assembled at Thirty-third and Federal sts., to begin their college careers and fit themselves for the upper positions in life. Totally unconscious of the obstacles that lay in our paths and gazing bewilderdly at the surround- ings we timidly entered the portals of the Institute whose name to us now seems immortal. We registered and then work began. We soon organized as a class and from the very beginning set out to break all records. First came the Freshman Handshake in which the upper class- men assured us that we were as welcome as water on the Sahara; not failing to remind us of the fact that a Freshman-Sophomore sack rush would give 11s an opportunity of displaying our athletic ability. The Sophomores however, little realized what they were confronting until that good natured scramble took place in a vacant lot near the school. From that time until the end of our career at Armour Institute, we have been feared by the athletes of all classes. Other events of the year were the Freshmen dance at the LaSalle Hotel and the smoker which followed our victorious sack-rush. After sailing on the high seas for a year, we felt like veterans in Sep- tember of 1917. when our Sophomore year began. Nevertheless sad to relate, a few of our sailors were ship-wrecked, and remained behind, thereby leaving a smaller crew to guide the ‘’1920 Ship.” The Sophomore class organized and another pleasant year began. Oc- casionally a mate was stranded, but he managed to pull out all right in the end, and the ship sailed on. The Sophomore dance was held at the Edgewater Beach Hotel, and all who were present had a mighty good time. In athletics we performed the customary act of winning with ease. The third year was our most important one at the Institute. The first part of it was broken up by the S. A. 'I'. C., and other military works, during which time many of our class mates answered their call to the colors and reflected honor upon the class.

The following officers were elected. W. M. Erickson President A. Lyon R. 11.1.G M. D. Gottlieb .... J. J. Brady ist Marshall L. E. Jones . . � . 2nd Marshall W. M. Seyperlich . Athletic Manager H. Anderson .... . Chairman Social Committee With men like these to handle our affairs, nothing but success could re- suit. During this year two dances were held by the class, the first at the Kdgewater Beach Hotel in February, and the second at the Congress Hotel in May, during Junior Week. We had charge of the Cycle, and certainly published a book that was worth while, even though our start was a trifle tardy. Athletics occurred in the usual way, a victory for the class that had yet to meet its Waterloo. During this same year, the class organized a Junior Jazz Band. When the Senior year began we felt strong for the last lap. Officers were elected, and in due time the various teams were organized. As usual the class of 1920 was well represented on all school teams. In social activities the un- usual thing was accomplished this year, namely two Senior dances. Both were successes as heretofore. And now at least, as we turn the final page in our book, graduation day reveals itself to us. We are satisfied, and know that we have done our share in promoting the various activities of the school and classes. When the class of 1920 passes into the alumni, it will carry with it the honor of being one of the greatest athletic organizations in the history of Armour. We wish to thank the President, Deans and Faculty for their efforts in our behalf. During the past four years they have all shown themselves to be the friends we need through life. Now ere we part, the Class of 1920 resolves that it will do its share by reflecting credit on our Alma Mater. Sixty-two XK'..—.

It was held on May fifth, the first day of Junior week, the most important one in our college career, and one to be long remembered. Among the notables present as guests of our class were Dean Raymond and Lieut. H. B. Maguire, late of the A. K. F. ’‘Shorties little tales and songs picked up Somewhere in France were just the kind that made us appreciate what the boys did for us in the mighty struggle. When all the good things to eat had been stowed away and cigarette smoke began to fill the air, the stories, songs, entertainment and speeches be- gan. The 1920 Jazz Band was on the job as usual, led by M. Gottlieb; and it certainly had the pep. A section of the Glee Club favored us with some good harmony. Bill Erickson acted as Toastmaster for the affair, and every officer of the class was called upon to say a few words and it certainly was a proud moment for the officer to stand in that cozy homelike room and address his fellow classmates. But oh! How quickly that evening did pass. If it could only have lasted a week instead of a few hours, what a happy bunch we would have been. The success of the affair was due to the splendid co-operation of the class and to the untiring efforts of our first Marshall, Mr. Brady. There is little doubt but that the night of May fifth 1919, will long dwell in the memory of every member of the class of 1920. x x x Sixty-three S: re y+ OJC DtlC DtK----«C Di C =XK----! 8C IXIC xo MXZZMX 2=2i 19-THE CYCLE OK ' XX X4----——, 9OK-rpiK B.

His goodness of heart has helped many a fellow out and he would give you the shirt from his back. L.

Liu was scheduled for the class of 1919, but was handicapped due to the fact that he answered the call of his mil- itary unit in Hawaii, in which he served for six months. However, he came back with a smile, more determined than ever. Besides carrying a double program, he made the Tech team as receiving end of the battery and brought honors to Ar- mour.

Danny is by far one of our most clever artists and as such certainly has the “Ecole” sit- ting up and taking notice, especially during the competition.

Bill’s efforts haven’t been entirely concentrated at the Art Institute. He is the secretary of the class and we are proud to have him represent us. He is also one of the Architects Misery Four.

It lias pleased us so well in fact, that we are substituting it in place of the usual formal statement of events. April. 1920 Armour “Tech”. Chicago, Ills. Dear Jim: Well, old boy, I’ve just heard where you’re located after leaving Armour last spring and I’m writing you “immejittly.” So you’re a regular business man, eh? Fine stuff, altho it’s too bad in a way, for we’d have had some glor- ious times together as we did in the old days. Do you remember that hot morning back in September ’17 when we first entered the old school as Freshmen? Proud? Well I’ll say we were! And will you ever forget that first Freshman Handshake when Dr. Gunsaulus and Professor Wilcox gave us those talks on Armour Spirit. We learned “Upward and Onward” then too, and first rapped out “Arch Mech.” Some time later we elected good old Bell president, and he served us right well. too. We gave our dance that year at the Hyde Park Hotel, and ’twas some affair. The baseball team didn’t turn out so well, tho, for we were trimmed bv all the other classes. We really worked as Freshmen, and many was the afternoon when we slowly circled around Professor Read’s strong- hold. and many was the night we perspired over Algebra and “Analyt.” But we pulled thru somehow, didn’t we? So the first year came to an end. and during the summer, Uncle Sam de- cided to establish the S. A. T. C. at Armour. Glory be, Jim, but will you ever forget the excitement of that first month ; the talks with Captain Kannally, the physical exams, and the final enlistment on October 1st. Dr. Gunsaulus gave us a mighty inspiring talk that day, and for about twenty-four hours, the army life seemed fine. But when we began to drill, and the Sergeants put us to scrubbing floors, and we had inspections and injections:- -well, Jim, I’ll say we sang another song. It wasn’t really so bad, tho. and the regular hours and meals, to say nothing of the exercise, did us a lot of good. We thought we were surely going overseas until the Huns finally gave up and we had Armistice day. We’ll remember it forever, I guess. The cars were going Loopward at two o’clock in the morning and by nine Captain Kannally and the Deans had relented, and we had our time to ourselves. We went downtown together, Jim, and had a regular debauch. Free meal and everything. After all. tho, things slackened up a bit as we knew we’d never get overseas, and we were finally discharged on December 12. Gee, what a “grand and glorious feelin’ ” that was. You didn’t have to salute a soul, you could sleep till P. X. if you wished, and best of all, you could climb back into your beloved civies. Well, at the beginning of the year, we had elections and Tom Michels, our beloved sergeant, became president. We held our dance at the Fdgewater Beach Hotel in the Black Cat room sometime in March. Our baseball team was fair, for we beat the Frosh twice, but somehow, the Juniors were too much for us. May 23 came none too soon for we were all rather tired after the gen- eral melee caused by the S. A. T. C. Then, Jim, you left us. and you can jolly well be sorry, for we’ve had the best year ever. For one thing, you missed a Junior’s privilege of riding on the elevator, which is a right sight better than climbing stairs. One Hundred Three IU : x x Si X £ x X ‘ «X HO ok: dck: =S 19-THE CYCLE'20 OK =XKI DttC DCO •+fi £ Then you might have saved us a beating or two in the Indoor Baseball tournament, which the lowly Freshmen won. We came out better in basket- ball tho. and with the aid of Max May, Spence Havlick, and Comic Sipple, we won out. These same fellows made the first Armour team we’ve had in three years, and added to its success. Early in the year we elected Emil Winters, another sergeant. (Funny how we love our sergeants, isn’t it?) president, and lie’s been fine. The coal strike and bad luck almost ruined our Junior dance, but we finally held it in February at the Morrison Hotel. And now, Jim, for what we’re going to do. Bob Van Valzah is our First Marshall, and lie’s surely planning a real Junior week. The Junior Prom and Banquet arc to be given as of old, and in addition we’re staging, the ‘‘Lucky Seventh” a musical comedy. Everet Quinn, the author and an old Armour man, is directing us, and Bill Lyon, A1 Spitzglass and Fred Anderson arc the leading characters. A regular Circus Day is planned, too, with field events, parade, and mustache contest. And Jim, we’re putting out a better Cycle than ever before. Maranz is our Editor-in-Chief, Walter, Business Manager and Loebl, Advertising Manager. Yes, Jim, the old Armour pep is coming back for fair. Good luck to you, and here’s hoping we may see you back next fall. Your old pal. Jack. X x 0 I ; :r x £ be £•! ’ ■—■■— OK---------Mlt T e Jimeon © S h | i n (g I u h.

On the taking of inventory, we find that the shelves of knowledge, ath- letics. and social functions, were well supplied. The walls of Science Hall will long re-echo the masterful, powerful, persuasive speeches of our class- mate rivals of Daniel Webster. Our excellent juggling of parliamentary rules will never be surpassed. Conforming to popular demand and custom, the first quiz in the art of cavorting about the polished place was held January 9, 1920, in the Louis XVI room of the Hotel LaSalle. Kinetic friction ac- companied by rythmic accelerated and retarded motion were the pleasant problems considered. Our second dance was held at the old pre-war favorite, the Old Colonial Club, now known as the Hyde Park American Club, on April 23, 1920. This was truly the dance of dances, one of the type that keeps up the high Armour standard. When it came to chasing the inflated sphere about in Charley’s Health Emporium, we were almost compelled to accept the interclass championship, but the kindly Juniors relieved us of the burden in the last round. Likewise, after showing the Juniors and Seniors how to play outdoor indoor baseball, we showed our love for downtrodden humanity by giving the Fresh a chance to see how their class numerals looked in Black and Gold. However, next year may not find 11s so obliging. Such is the history of the Soph Class of ’22. As a true student of history, gaze upon it, accept it as a fact, and marvel at the enlightened mob that next year will grace the haunts of the Juniors.

The first chance we had to become acquainted with each other and the upper classmen was at the annual Freshmen Hand-shake held at the Hyde Park Y. M. C. A., on the evening of September 26th. Here we were received royally by the upper-classmen. After several speeches urging the Freshmen to cooperate with the Y. M. C. A., Prof. Scherger gave us an in- spiring welcome and a bit of friendly advice. This was followed by a swim- ming meet, where a few stars were uncovered, after which refreshments were served. The class was organized on October 8th. After a few words of advice by D.ean Monin. Bill Erickson presided until Bob Bradley, a man well chosen, was elected as President. Subsequently Hunt was elected Vice-President: Decker, Secretary: and Nemoyer, Treasurer. After the President appointed several committees, the meeting was adjourned. The Fresh indoor team got away with a good start and only lost one game during the race for the pennant, which they captured by playing a superior brand of ball, unknown to the upper-classmen. By a class vote the players were awarded numerals. The Freshmen had a well-balanced basket-ball team and deserved far more credit than the scores would seem to indicate. Several Freshmen made the squad and Shumacher received his letter. The Freshmen had a good delegation out for baseball, and we are certain that there is much good track material, and hope that this branch of athletics will come in again next year. At the opening of the second semester it was necessary to hold an election to fill the vacancies caused by the fact that several officers had failed to return to school. At this election Carr was elected Vice-President: Payson. Secretary: and Brooke. Treasurer. These men fulfilled the duties of their various offices satisfactorily and it is hoped that their stay in the Institute will be more permanent. The Annual Freshmen Prom was held in the Ball Room of the Auditor- ium Hotel on Friday evening. April the 9th. The Saxophone King, Paul Biese, and his jazz orchestra furnished their usual line of syncopation for this most enjoyable occasion. Much credit is due to Hillicker and the social committee whose untiring efforts made this affair a huge success. Big things may be expected from the Class of Twenty-three as upper-class- men, as there has been a fine spirit of cooperation in all of their undertakings. THE CLASS YELL. HAREM.

Je y Armour Summer Camp, 1919 Trout Lake, Wisconsin It was a strangely uncivil-looking bunch of engineers that started out upon that wild and sleepless northward journey on the night of June sixth, with their queer boxes, mackinaws, army outfits and—yes, we must admit it—smattering of stiff collars and ties. However, those who knew better than to try to soothe the native wilds with the refined accouterments of civilization soon made themselves quite comfortable and weathered the storm in true backwoods fashion by sleeping until transferred to Charlie’s tender care, whereupon that pastime became altogether impossible to all except our doughty sailors of the S. A. 'I'. C. regime who. of course, were accustomed to the ocean-going mo- tion. Even these gentlemen, however, were more than overjoyed when time came to pull into the grand terminal station at State House, and nobody lost any time in getting to the camp and satisfactorily filling an aching void in his anatomy. This latter trifling detail having been attended to. we proceeded to match up room- and tent-mates and spent the rest of the day in pitching tents, and arranging camp. Everybody was out bright and early the next morning and the instruction in surveying field practice was begun immediately. In the course of the sum- mer we were duly initiated into the mysteries of taping, leveling, topographical surveying, railway surveys, location, and triangulation. This latter subject calls to mind Montague’s Tower, an imposing edifice erected at a tremendous cost of labor and a minimum cost of material, for the purpose of elevating the theodolites to a vantage point from which any point in the surrounding country might be seen with comparative ease. The tower is composed of two independent units, each built up from the ground so that the motion of the instrument man cannot affect the position of the instrument. It is fully thirty-five feet from the ground to the instrument and considering the materials used and the adverse working conditions the structure is really a credit to the industry and resource fullness of the builders and notably to Montague, the guiding spirit and “construction engineer” of the project. Time fled indeed too fast during the period of our stay but never a day passed without some high light to make it memorable. The arrival of “Peri” Grammas was hailed with delightful anticipations which were soon justified when he, with true Hellenic maritime skill, fashioned a bold Pirate craft which provided several evenings of unparalleled entertainment for those who were adventurous enough to fare forth in the craft under his able guidance, but several cruises of ill-advised duration and with well-nigh disastrous re- sults. caused those responsible for our safety such anxiety that it was necessary to curb the activities of the craft. When things threatened to become dull, friend Kumbera succeeded in arousing considerable dormant enthusiasm by means of liberal applications of “ambition-water” from the well. 'Phe summer camp is certainly one of the supreme successes of Armour Institute, for it provides a means of attaining valuable experience in actual surveying practice in only a few weeks, under skillful guidance: it brings the student into contact with the faculty in such a manner as would be impossible One Hundred Twenty y =XK= SK NK DUC 22 19-THE CYCLE -20 oxzzzxzc under normal school conditions, presenting a personal side of the situation which brings out the good points ot all the persons concerned, magnifying them for analysis, and minimizing the discordant points by producing an under- standing of one another and by sinking them in the spirit of mutual helpfulness which pervades the whole atmosphere; it helps to produce a type of college man experienced in matters outside of the heart of civilization, strong, virile and eager to accomplish, and instills in him an appreciation of nature and the great outdoors. Indeed it is an attainment and an innovation in instruction of which our college may be justly proud. Those in evidence at meal times were Professors Phillips and Penn, with- out whose perennial attendance the camp would be considered by all as a dismal affair, Professor Armstrong who made his debut, as it were, and many times made us appreciate how fortunate we were to have happened upon a year when we might be given the added advantage of his experience in our guidance, and the following reckless invaders of the field of Civil Kngineering knowledge: Ham ACER Milks Watt Douglas Miller Douglas Seaberc Koch Vaalkr Montague Ham merman Stei n Frank Lociiow Lyon Michels H.

When national affairs became normal again, the Ex- ecutive Council, acting with the aid of the Board of Athletic Control, unani- mously endorsed a system of athletics which would interest even the most unconcerned individual, which system proved remarkably successful. The system was of such a character that the students who did not actually partici- pate in atheletics, were accorded an opportunity of offering suggestions which would promote the work of that department. Home game admission tickets were provided for distribution, and with the kindly aid of a squadron of students, many of them were sold. The holders of these tickets attended each of the home games, thereby standing by and sticking with the basketball team. The intercollegiate basketball tournament was most successfully carried on, although the Institute had severed its connections with the Little Five Conference. The series of tournament games were played on a free lance basis without regard to any ironclad athletic arrangements with other col- leges. Our conduct was thus free from the critical observation of any western organizations to which we would have been bound under different circum- stances. In order to pick the varsity team, an interclass tournament was arranged. The men who played on the various class teams were eligible to try out for the varsity basketball team. Our mighty Seniors, who had won every inter- class tournament since their entrance into the Institute, were defeated twice in this tournament. All the teams were evenly matched, thus making the games much more interesting. The Juniors won the tournament with three victories and one defeat. These games made it possible for our coach, Mr. Volz, to pick the varsity basketball team for the year 1919-1920.

Mr. Volz’s versatility lias gained for him a prominent place in athletic circles throughout the country. His experiences in every branch of sport, all the way from Basketball to Fencing, may be traced to Cincinnati, where he played with the finest aggregations in those parts. Mr. Volz was picked for the Cincinnati All Star Football and Basketball teams 1914-15. and was Captain of Cincinnati All Star Basketball team 1916. His success with the Armour Institute of Technology is hardly measurable.

As an all star sportsman Ira lifts the lid. In athletic circles everywhere, the name of this player is more than a password, and Bready’s accomplishments furnish interesting material for a conversation. His natural knack for sinking baskets is a personal quality derived from years of hard experience. He never fails to regis- tei high in every game. Persons who understand basketball will attest to the statement that his movements are unlike those of a player who has had mechanical gestures drilled into him. We are indeed proud of a fellow like Ira when we re- call how hard he has fought to uphold the athletic standard of the Institute, in his four years of asso- ciation with the Tech teams. Here’s wishing him a bucket of luck; may it pour out volumes of happi- ness and great success. D jc be V x n OJC ERICKSON Come forth, ye good old men, and shake hands with our own Bill! Bill Erickson has gained for himself the admira- tion of the general student body of the Institute prin- cipally because of his spirit of fair play at all times and everywhere. It can be said that William’s clean cut playing was a mark of athletic quality found only in one whose own personality is clean cut. In the four years of Bill’s connection with the Institute teams, he has built up a reputation of the strongest character. As a man and a player he toes the mark. His careful and accurate play- ing in basketball will remain impressed upon our minds as long as we exist. We shall never for a moment lose the thought of his enthusiastic support of the college team in its every activity. Bill never flinched; he always fought hard and true.

In every game where careful, untiring playing was an important requisite, Havlick never failed to fill the job. At times when a close game caused our score to quiver, this fellow with his teeth gritted just tore through the lines giving added im- petus to the other men. “Spence” Havlick has earned his reputation as the Institute's “guarding guard,” who never retired, no matter how much exhaustion drained his strength to go on. He went on—he always won. - X ( ! MAY Max’s square, broad shoulders, and wealth of heaviness, have identified him as the proper person in the guard position. Yea, boy, when Max stuck to his man, and any man tried to stick to Max, what a shameful spill came to view and “all the king’s horses couldn’t get humpty-dumpty together again.” We verily believe that many years will need to pass before Max’s equal will come to the Institute’s at- tention. Max was more than a standing fixture on the Tech Team, endeavoring always to put into every game all that was in him—careful playing, determination, and manlike handling of his oppo- nents despite Max’s large built. We trust that next year the Institute may again enjoy his sportsman- like association. One Hundred Thirty DiKZZDKC x MKZZZXC HK XK ,, xidDoc x : x x DUC 19 - THE CYCLE - 20 ZHIC AHLBECK It is said in the pedagogy that “a student of human nature is a student of himself.” It goes without question that Harry knows all about himself, as the most terrific flooring does not in the least affect his fine playing. He is a remark- ably self-composed player, whose chief aim in a game is to guard his man. Slam-bangs have no existence in Ahlbeck’s life, and regardless of pretentiously brutal playir.g by our opponents in certain instances, Harry’s ability to play straight through the game without being in the least dis- turbed, has added greater strength to our team. Harry has won his first letter; we are confident that the future holds another one for him if he does not stay away from college next year, as he contemplates doing. We trust that he will again be with us when our basketball season opens in 1921. ! 310 x : ; X X I I T A y i KUEHN Awaken to the fact that Otto played the game —he played it from start to finish without weaken- ing in the least. Authorities throughout the country measure a player’s ability by only one means—the mode of playing. Kuehn’s style of playing indi- cates much practice. His “scientifically practical” way of shooting for the basket ofttimes kept our opponents on the run. It has been estimated by many who have seen him play that Kuehn will have little difficulty copping oft an important position on next season's team after a good season’s training. We are confident in our belief that Otto’s fine for- ward playing has far outclassed that of his prede- cessors. Here’s hoping he stays with us to play for us again. y y One Hundred Thirty-one x X x OK J_ DiKZ IMK---- BC 3fKZ ZNKZZStlC � ' ■«� «i� nj i 3fK=Z---------- xo ok: a. 4.. y A, x SCHUMACHER “Shoefly,” say not aye, aye; ’tis our little Schu- macher, with an eagle’s eye.’’ Schumacher, the lightest player on the team, piled up a score of bas- kets for Armour. All will agree with us that “Jerry” was a conspicuous figure in intercollegiate basketball. Schumacher certainly knew how to start the ball off. He could drive through a well arranged defense, dribbling in criss-cross style, and making his shoes stick. We are certain of this player’s appearance with the team next year. Schu- macher, being a Freshman, will probably play with the team for three more years. v x y 0 x McCaffrey A human tornado, with a dynamo’s power, was “Mac.” The dynamo never weakened; it was always chock full of juice. “Mac” spurted about the floor like wildfire, and it took more than human strength to guard him well. Oft times the juice seemed to have been gone, but McCaffery stood the test without twitch or twain. We are hopeful of his return to athletics next year, as Mac’s value to the Institute is hardly measurable. in 3 SIPPEL Refinement in a player makes for refined playing, you will all agree, and “Sip” was made up of that material. Sippel understood the game well; his original tac- tics proved that fact. He was never bored by the thought of having to substitute in a game when a fresh man was needed. He played basketball hard and right. “Sip” was accorded all the credit of which he was deserving, and his quick pass work had a striking effect upon those on the side lines. We have no doubt but that Sippel will again 'play with the Institute team. We shall welcome him, he may be assured. Basketball When the basketball season opened the Tech. Team was in sound con- dition for competition in that sport. Our coach, Mr. Volz, had molded into shape a most formidable team. Much time had been devoted to coaching the players in their pass work and criss-cross dribbling, as well as short, careful shooting through unobstructed space. The latter playing was made possible when our forwards eluded their persistent guards in such a manner that basket shooting was accomplished without much difficulty. The game of basketball is scientific in its nature, but our experience this year, as in former years, has proved that victories arc attained only because the players are practical in their movements. During the entire tournament, our boys, although equipped with a knowledge of the theory of the game, were able to sink baskets only after they had played a practical game. It is of no effect for a player to recall whether the science of the game requires that he shoot only when the floor is clear, or whether he should pass the ball to a player who is near him even though he is directly in front of the basket,but not close enough to make it. Such deliberation might break up a strong offensive drive. The theory of the game is applicable only when the opponents are so slow that their inactivity permits of such playing. Not frequently have we opposed a team that has proved so inactive. Most of our games neces- sitated the utilization of stunts unfamiliar to the theorist. As a fitting example of a practical player one needed only to observe Bready’s skillful spurts throughout the tournament. Although fully cognizant of the requirements of the game, Ira is more practical than scientific in most all of his movements. The Institute has had the pleasure of his athletic con- nections during its association with the Little Five Colleges. When a critical point was reached in a game, and it seemed that our opponents were forging toward our basket with Father Fortune by their side, Bready proved his mettle to the extent that his long, sure shots never failed to turn the tide. We arc indeed regretful to know that we must lose Ira upon his graduation from the Institute. We only trust that next year will produce as good a man and as astute a player as he was. We find among the other players on the team, a fellow, “IJill” Erickson, who is a veteran in the game, and whose past association with the Institute in basketball has brought his name to the attention of the general student body. When Bill” offered his services to the team, our coach quickly recognized in him the qualities usually sought for in a basketball player. The coach immediately took ‘‘Bill” under his feathers for the season’s training; his mode of shooting was developed to a point where Erickson could sink a basket without scraping the net. His tall, player-like stature marked him as a splendid center for the team. “Bill’s” method of careful jumping gave our team the tip-off in almost every instance. It may be well stated that Erickson’s low record of personal fouls is indicative of clean sportsmanship. In every basketball tournament, it is essential that the team have on its roll a man who will unflinchingly play the game through. Our “Spence” Havlick lacked no quality in measuring up to the standard required of such a player. His aggressive and persistent playing gained for him the enthusiastic support of his fellow students. When basketball reopens next year, observant persons in the athletic circles of the Institute say that Havlick will outclass any guard against whom he may need to compete for a berth on the Tech. Team. We arc confident that “Spence” will continue next year to work with the same high zealousness that marked his playing this year. One Hundred Thirty-three OK V X K • x I XK ■ :. '.7.� KZZ O 79 - THE CYCLE -20 Out of a mass of first year students, there appeared two very able players, namely, Kuehn and Schumacher. These youthful forwards broke into College athletics with only past experiences to offer as proof of their unknown abili- ties. As time sped by, our boys, Otto and “Gerry,” displayed a penchant for making baskets. Our coach, Mr. Volz, took them into hand, removed the rough edges of their own style of playing, and prepared them for forward positions on the team. And when the tournament began, Kuehn and Schu- macher registered basket upon basket in every game in which they participated. They were soon looked upon as invaluable players whose sure-shots often tipped the scale of points against our most difficult opponents. In the course of training for work with the College team, two students presented themselves to the coach as material for basketball. McCaffrey and Sipple acknowledged their candidacy and immediately submitted themselves to the coach for proper preparation and training. We do not hesitate to say that “Mac” and “Sip” proved important players whenever it became necessary to call upon fresh, hearty men for assistance in a hot game. It has been said by men who understood “basketball” that the player in a guard position needs to know how to control himself. Unless a guard is able to do this, he should not be permitted to serve in that capacity. Among the players on the Tech Team could be found a man whose self-composure in any game—rough or otherwise—was clearly evinced. Harry Ahlbeck was so constituted that brutal and pretentiously rough handling by our opponents had no effect to curtail his swift, aggressive playing. Harry truly played basketball in accordance with the Gospel, in that he “offered his other cheek.” At certain periods of the game it often appeared as though Ahlbeck’s very soul had been crushed, but this determined player just “picked himself together” for further hard playing. His clean-cut playing had a pungent effect upon all who admired him. We know that the College will regret the loss of a sterling fellow as well as a real athlete in the person of Harry, if he fails to return next year, as the situation may be. We had a Goliath on our squad. Max May, a stalwart personage with an athletic frame, appeared in the limelight of the College. May’s preliminary training in basketball was thought at first to be insufficient for a berth on the Tech Team. However after a well spent season of training under the tutelage of our coach, Max became a regular guard for Armour Tech. And as the work of the team progressed, Max disclosed certain essential character- istics which next year will undoubtedly cause amazement among athletic circles, and assure him a position on the team. When our schedule had almost reached the point of completion, a new- comer offered himself as an utility man. Milton Marks crept into College basketball full of enthusiasm—he poured all of it out too—and we are highly grateful to Marks for his kindly services with the Tech Team. The intercollegiate basketball schedule for the year 1919-1920 was as follows: Hillsdale College at Armour, December 12, 1919. Monmouth College at Monmouth, December 19, 1919.

The weather man has not been able to satisfactorily control the elements, hence keeping our men off the diamond, and rebuking even an attempt to invade the outfield. At certain periods of the dark, damp weather which prevailed throughout the entire training season, it seemed as though clouds would make a way for the sun to shine. But our conclusions were naught as we looked on and saw the heavy, careless rain pounding our field out of shape. And so our baseball recruits submitted themselves to a wet-like training, in the face of loose water and hard water, snow and sleet, darkness and thunder, storm and calm, and every conceivable, climatic disadvantage included in the weather-man’s repertoire. With a dark sky full of all kinds of happenings that take the heart out of a man, our boys just buckled down to indoor work. A good many fellows have dodged the attempt to get them out for indoor calisthenics. This was due to the fact that students who have played baseball with local institutions and organizations, registered a laugh when confronted with the proposition for indoor practice. Too many of these self-satisfied candidates for berths on the team have allowed an op- portunity to slip through their fingers, which opportunity if taken advantage of would have rounded out their rough edges, and made more humming play- ers of them. When the first fair weather ‘‘occurred ’ our cleats were immediately dug into the clay. Our men just kissed the ground and almost sprang out of their shoes with joy. And friend Columbus in 1492 could not have manifested greater satisfaction upon his landing in America than our boys had upon their landing in Ogden Field in A. D. 1920. The writer has added to the previous statement the letters A. I), out of his belief that readers should always be given a clear understanding of the matter before them. Therefore, A. D. means ANXIETY DISPLAYED. Now, we may as well become serious. The baseball material at hand is promising of a team that will undoubtedly protect the athletic standard of the Institute. We have no hesitancy in predicting a more successful season than the baseball traditions of the institute have yet been able to disclose. The writer takes this opportunity of expressing the sentiment of the general student body in its hopes that the Tech Teams carry on without even a lone defeat.

After three days of strenuous training under the direction of “Cap” Sey- ferlich and Ira Rready, the peppery Junior team felt as though they were ready to face the other three teams in the Inter-Class Baseball Championship Series of 1919. W ith practically the same men that won the baseball title in both 1917 and ’18, and upheld a record of being undefeated, Scy had little trouble in placing them in their most appropriate positions in the line-up and batting order. As most of the men had participated in the inter-class and other basket-ball games, the team, in general, was in first class condition, physically, and, after a most thorough drilling, both in the field and in the art of “swinging the war-club,” Sey felt well prepared for his latest under- taking. 'Phe healthy Sophomores were the first victims on the schedule, and in spite of the fact that the Junior sluggers did not hit true to form, and besides, gave their pitcher anything but good support, the Sophs fell before Sey and his mates, 7 to 3. “Red” Michels started on the mound for the Sophs, but later was re- lieved by Woods. The Juniors were comparatively slow in getting started, but as the game progressed, it became more and more evident that the “Old heads” would eventually win out. Sevic and Muelleman led the hitters of the day, with two good wallops each. “Joe” clouted the longest drive of the afternoon when he drove one to deep left-center for two bases. The hitting in this particular game was 9 to 5, with the Juniors on the long end, while the fielding of both teams was very inconsistent, and was about even. Second Game. Ira Bready, the other Junior mainstay, twirled excellent ball in the second Junior victory, which resulted in a score of 13 to 5. After a rather poor start, Ira settled down in the third round and held the Freshman sluggers practically helpless for the remainder of the game. The Juniors displayed excellent team-work in this game, for besides playing errorless ball, they completed two fast double-plays that prevented further scoring, and hit to the man in the pinches. Out of the four hits made by the Frosh, three were bunched in the first two innings, and these, together with several walks, produced four of their five runs. The hard-hitting Juniors wasted neither time nor hits in this game, and demonstrated from the very outset that they were out to win. Sevic opened the game with a sharp line-drive over the infield, for a clean single. lie then stole second, and went to third on Malpede’s infield hit. Frickson produced a clean single to center, scoring Sevic and sending Malpcde to third. Sey sent a long fly to center, and Dan scored after the catch, making the Junior total two for the inning. With two gone in the first half of the second, “Shorty” Sevic hit another sizzling liner, for his second single of the day. “Dangerous Dan” Malpede stepped into one of Shea's fast ones and sent the elusive pill on a long journey, scoring Sevic ahead of himself, and putting the Juniors three runs to the good. However, the Frosh refused to be outdone and in their half of the inning, mixed several walks with a hit or two for three runs, tying the count at four all.

Sey started “things” with a vicious liner that almost took one of Shea’s legs with it, and when the Frosh recovered the ball. Sey was resting on second. Ira was patient, and allowed four wide ones to pass. Marsh” Gottlieb then made his first hit of the game, in the form a scorching line-drive to deep left-center, whereupon Sey and Ira romped home, while Gottlieb halted at third. “Art” Lyons then followed with a double, sending Gottlieb home. “Joe” Muelleman got his first hit of the game in the form of a clean single. “Swatty” Schwachtgen Hied out, but Sevic was there in the pinch as usual, with a clean single, scoring Lyons. “Dangerous Dan”, whose homer scored two in the second, leaned on another and sent it to the same region as before, for his second home run of the day, swelling the Junior total to eleven. As stated above, from that time on there was little doubt as to the outcome, but, just to boost his batting average, Sevic slammed a long triple with two men on the sacks, in the fifth, making the final score thirteen for the Juniors. In all, the Juniors collected twelve hits, half of which were good for extra bases, while the Frosh, as indicated before, could solve Bready’s delivery only four times. In this game the fielding for both sides was of “big-league” caliber. The box-score by innings follows: i 2 3 4 5 6 7 R. H. E. Juniors ..................2 2 7 o 2 o o—13 12 o Freshman .................1 3 o o o 1 o— 542 Two base hits: Lyons, Sevferlich. Three base hits: Gottlieb, Sevic and Kelner. Home Runs: Malpede (2). OK Third Came. Having eliminated the Freshman from the Championship race in a close game, 5 to 4, the Sophs made a desperate attempt to come back strong, against the Junior Champs. As the noted Seniors were unable to compete in the series, the third straight and final victory for the Juniors gave them the undisputed championship of the league and school. On this occasion, Sey and his fighting crew took the confident Sophs into camp to the tune of 14 to o. The Sophs were helpless before Sey and his two battery-mates, Muelleman and Bready, who handled his fast ones and benders cleverly. Only two hits were made off Sey’s delivery, one of them being of the scratch variety, and, as a matter of interest, an accurate account of the game shows that but two balls were bit out of the infield, one of these being a fly that Erick captured after a long run towards the infield. Sey also established several unique records, in that he whiffed fourteen in the seven innings, and on two different occasions retired the entire side by the strike-out route—once on nine pitched balls. At the start, Mehroff, the first man up for the Sophs, walked and later One Hundred Forty-eight HO X x x X i !

Right here Sey managed to pull himself out of a hole, when on an attempted “Squeeze play he fielded Michels’ bunt with his bare-hand and threw to the plate in time to retire Mehrhoff. This proved to be the Soph’s only chance for a run, for Sey put on “full steam“ and whiffed the next two Soph batsmen in order. After that the Sophs did not have a chance, and in spite of the fact that Sey was wild at times, he always had the necessary control in the pinch, and with the high-grade support that lie received, retired the Sophs in order before another runner reached second base. With Ira Bready doing the receiving in the sixth and seventh, Sey put victims on nine pitched balls in the sixth. The hitting of the Juniors was the hardest and most consistent seen at Armour in some time, for out of their eighteen hits, six were doubles, four were triples, and three were home runs, making a total of twenty-three extra bases out of a total base sum of forty-one. Out of the three homers made by the Juniors, “Home-Run” Dan Mal- pede combed two, making his total four for the three games, a record that should stand for some time. Not only did Dan lead in home-runs and total extra-bases, but his timely hits produced over one-third of the Junior runs in the second and third games. Two of his home-runs were made with a pair of Junior runners on base, and another came with one on, so that his homers alone, were responsible for nine runs. Besides these, Dan made two singles and a double at opportune moments in the series, and played a “whizz of a game at first base. Neither team could score in the first, and with Sey and Woods going strong, it appeared as though the game were going to be one of those long drawn-out affairs. However, certain things occurred in the last half of the second and third that would have convinced even the most skeptical that the Juniors were in a class by themselves. With Malpede out of the way in the second, Woods became a trifle4 “shaky” and walked Bready. Sey signalled Ira for the hit-and-run, and sent the first ball pitched to right-center for two bases, Ira stopping at third. Gottlieb scored both runners with a pretty line-drive to left-center, also a double, but Marsh tried to make third on the hit and was out. y 3C In the third, Joe Muelleman started the “ball-a-rolling with a line to left for three bases. “Bobby Illg walked, and immediately stoic second. Sevic and Erick could not produce this time, but “Home-Run” Dan lived up to his name, and knocked the ball far over the left-fielder’s head for a home- run, scoring Muelleman and Illg ahead of himself. With the Sophs fighting harder than ever, the Juniors came right back in the fourth with three more runs. Sey, the first man up, slammed his second double to center. Gottlieb again came through in the pinch and lined one over second for a single, Sey scoring on the hit. “Art” Lyons caught a hold on one, and sent it in the neighborhood of Malpede’s home-run “garden,” and before the Soph outfielders could recover the ball, Art circled the bases and headed for the ice-water.

In the first half of the sixth, Bready donned the mask and chest-pro- tector in order to hurry things a little, and Sey put on “full-steam” on the rubber. Exactly nine balls were pitched, and each one seemed to stay shy of the bat, for before any of the Sophs could connect, the side was retired by the strike-out route. The Juniors “cut loose” with their final terrific (live in the home sixth. Gottlieb doubled and so did Lyons. Muelleman grounded to short, who threw wild to first, Lyons scoring and Joe going to second. “Bobby” Illg sent a scorching line-drive to right-center for three bases, sending Joe in. Sevic was retired, pitcher to first, but Big Bill” Erickson met one square on the “nose” for another triple, scoring Illg. “Home-Run” Dan Malpede, who wasn’t satisfied with the damage already inflicted, slammed a double over third, scoring Erick. Ira payed his final respects of the season with a line-drive straight at the pitcher’s head. Sey then put an end to the catastrophe by sending the ball straight up to the clouds, ending the inning, and the scoring for the day as well as the series. The Soph’s last stand was more or less a repetition of their sixth, as three men fell victims of Sey’s quick delivery, in spite of the fact that the first man up walked and the second singled. Thus, one of the most interesting and decisive games ever seen on the campus ended with one of the best batteries even seen in such a series playing the leading role, and supported by one of the hardest hitting aggregations ever seen at Armour.

In the first outdoor indoor baseball tournament held at Armour for years, the Freshmen, after a hard and interesting fight, captured the honors, and received the championship awards in the form of numerals. Although the Freshmen fell before Nudelman and his Juniors in the first game of the series, they came back strong in the remaining games with a clear slate. For once the Seniors were outdone, and although several of the games were played under the most peculiar circumstances (rain, etc.), the Freshmen nevertheless should be accredited with all the honors due them. In their second victory over the Seniors, the Freshmen played one of the strongest defensive games of the series. With the fighting Seniors extending themselves to the limit of their ability, the Freshmen time and again pulled their hurler out of a hole. In one particular instance two long drives were cap- tured by Frosh outfielders, off the bats of Seyferlich and Bready, with two men on the sacks. The final score of this battle was 5 to 4. and the game was not over until the last man as out. In the final game of the series, the one that gave the Freshmen the title, two extra innings were required before a decision was reached. With Van Dyke on the mound for the Frosh and going in great style, the Sophs were unable to penetrate the Frosh defense and until the eighth inning no Sophomore had reached first. Diefenbach likewise was going strong, for, although he was not effective as Van Dyke, yet he found himself in the pinches, and managed to hold the Frosh sluggers at bay. Neither side had scored until the ninth, when in the first half two walks and a single by Desmond of the Sophs produced their lone tally of the afternoon. However, the Frosh came right back in their half, with the aid of a walk, a single and a two-bagger by Van Dyke, the score was tied and the ump was signalled for a further extension of time. After retiring the Sophs in short order in their half of the tenth, the Frosh sluggers, led by Kelner, put the finishing touches to the game. Kelner’s single, immediately followed by a walk, and a timely hit by Schumacher, com- bined with an error by “Muffem Snodgrass” Walker, resulted in the deciding run for the Freshmen, and brought the “bacon” home to the Frosh for the first time since 1916.

We have tried to depict all phases of activities about the Institute which would be of interest to all; to recall and fix in the minds of Faculty and stu- dents the passing events of the year: to keep the Alumni informed of the progress of their Alma Mater, and bring back to them the memories of other years; and to picture to our friends everywhere the more intimate life of the school. We wish to expresss our indebtedness to the Bloom Studio, the Jaim Ollier Engraving Co., and The Severinghaus Co. for their efforts in making the success of this book possible. To the Cycle Board, we wish to extend our hearty thanks for the pride and interest they have taken in making this book. To the following, the 1920 Cycle staff wish to express their sincere ap- preciation for the interest they have shown and the encouragement they have given: Dr. F. W. Guksaulus Divan H. W.

Assistant Business Manager With the arrival of normal conditions of affairs, the year 1919 sees again the publication of the Armour Engineer, after a lapse of one year during which time publication was suspended in order to give way to more important mili- tary matters of the day. The May. 1920, issue will complete Volume XI of the Armour Engineer and the omission will be noticeable in the sequence of yearly dates hut not in the volume numbers. With the success and influence built up by previous issues in mind, the present staff undertook to maintain and uphold the established standards and precedents of the journal, and to take up the work where it was laid down by the previous staff. In bringing the Armour Engineer back to its former status among engineering publications, the staff realized the hearty co-operation extended by the Alumni, the faculty, the students of the Institute. The aim has been to bring the Alumni into closer relationship with the Institute activities and with one another, and at the same time to form concrete ideas for the students of the work successfully engaged in by the Armour graduates. The Alumni section acts as a news agency among the graduates of the Institute. Here are listed the various activities and pursuits of the Armour Alumni. The College Activities section keeps the readers in touch with the events occurring on the campus and is of a newsy” nature. The editors of Vol. XI wish to express their deep appreciation for the many valuable suggestions received from Dean Monin and Dean Raymond; and for the support and contributions tendered by the Alumni, faculty, and students of Armour Institute.

One Hundred Sixty-five EE?_________:_.■= =!� 19 - THE CYCLE -20 ™= E=E DtiC STERN HERTWIG ILLG ERICKSON ANDERSON Senior Dances The social season at Armour had an auspicious opening on the evening of November 7, when the Senior Class held its first dance in the Colonial Room at the Edgewater Beach Hotel. The dance was very well attended and the Colonial Room was tilled with a happy throng of Armourites. The orchestra furnished good music and altogether it was a most enjoyable affair. The Seniors not being satisfied with one dance decided to give another. Therefore on March 26th, a second dance was held in the Gold Room at the LaSalle Hotel. This dance surely was a congenial and wonderful party, due to good music and to lack of crowding on the floor. If you should ask any of those fortunate enough to attend. “Which has been the best dance of the year”? the answer will invariably be, “The Senior dance at the LaSalle.” Thus the Senior class gave its last dance, still living up to the reputation it has established during its four year career at Armour, of giving wonderful dances. Special credit is due Messrs. Erickson, Ilertwig, Anderson, Stern and Illg, who compose the Social Committee, and who by their efforts added much to the success of the final social effort of the class of 1920.

I will say they missed some time! “Pete” put it over in true Armour fashion in spite of the trouble the Juniors had in getting a date. “Spitz” got the band, and some band! Jazz from them. Harry’s songs, the girls, the place, everything went to make the Junior Dance a social triumph. Messrs. Peterson, Spitzglass, Pfafflin. Scot ford, and Sipple, the social committe, were responsible for the good time, and deserve much praise for their efforts, but promise to outdo themselves at their next crawl, the Junior Prom.

Their first venture was held on the evening of Jan. 9. 1920 in the Louis XVI Room, in the Hotel LaSalle. Jimmy Carson and his band were the source of inspiration to the dancers, and made everybody sorry that the ever- inevitable strains of “Home Sweet Home” should have to put an end to the gay evening. The Old Colonial Club, now known as the Hyde Park American Club, was the scene of the second Soph dance. Everybody remembers this hall as a favorite spot for our dances in pre-war times, and on April 23, 1920, Armour- ites renewed their acquaintance, in one of the social successes of the year. Messrs.

The Freshmen tried to be a little more original in the manner in which they ran their dance, and had two main features. They not only had dancing until one o’clock, but they had music by Paul Biese’s Novelty Orchestra. Paul Biese, who is con- sidered the best saxophone player in the city of Chicago, was the big hit of the evening. Much credit must be given to our president. Bob Bradley, for securing the music for us, which was, no doubt, the cause of the success of the dance. The following men of the Freshman class are on the social committee: Chairman, Fred V. Hilliker, John Crowe. Merle Nutt, Lester Grube, Maurice Mix. Clarence Nicklin. X fi £ i DUC DUdZDUC DUC One Hundred Sixty-nine •vv—nee—-xv'—' v a X I 0 x i «i •i OKZ AFTER many weeks of constant practice the Clubs were ready for the big event of the year, the “Home Concert.” The Concert was given at the Central Music Hall on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. April 6th and 7th. At first it was decided to give the concert 011 Wednesday night only but the demand for scats was so pronounced that it was given on Tuesday and Wed- nesday nights, April 6th and 7th. The concert was a great success and speaks well for the work of both clubs and its leaders. The Glee Club opened the program with “America Triumphant” and then sang “Upward and Onward Armour,” the old campus song of A. I. T. 'flic Syncopators then took a hand in the program and gave one of their usual good selections. The quintette, Messrs. Smith, Lowe, Kirkhuff, Bushev and Geisler, entertained next and they surely made what is termed “a hit.” The («lee Club sang “Wake, Miss Lindy” and were immediately followed by Messrs. Jones, Hall and Peterson with their Antique Banjo Lyrics. This num- ber on the program was a very great success and the boys were quite ex- hausted from giving encores. The Syncopators played again and had the audi- ence wishing for a dance floor, so effective was their music. The first part of the program ended with H. E. Anderson starring, and assisted by the Glee Club singing “Leap for a Man, Girls, It’s Leap Year.” The Glee Club sang “On the Road to Mandalay” as a starter for the second half of the evening’s entertainment. Mr. Thompson and Miss Krum- haar gave a variety of selections which were heartily applauded by the audi- ence. The next number was a colored sketch by Messrs. Marks and Erickson which had the spectators literally lying out in the aisles. The syncopators entertained next with a bundle of music that was beyond comparison, and then came the Broadway Trio”, Michels, Hertwig and Spitzglass, which alone was well worth the price of admission. Tho not professionals they have their ways, as will he vouched for by all those who were there to see and hear them, and they would have favored the audience with another number had it not been, as Michels said, the Tribune reporter wanted a write-up of the act. The evening’s entertainment was concluded with both clubs on the stage, singing and playing some popular songs.

M. C. A. has ever given. This was made possible by the large number of Freshmen who availed themselves of the opportunity to become acquainted with their fellow classmen, and also to the many upperclassmen who, by their presence, demonstrated the spirit of comaraderie which is so prevalent at the Institute. This was the first social event of the college year and was held at the Hyde Park Y. M. C. A. rooms on Sept. 19, 1919. The event commenced promptly at 7:30 P. M. and, after much hand- pumping, a few games of checkers and pool, the whole assembly entered the Auditorium. The program commenced with the singing of the Star Spangled Banner by the entire assembly. Then Chairman Jones, after a few opening remarks, called upon the Glee Club for some selections which, of course, contained our old college song, “Upward and Onward Armour.” Then Mr. Jones sprang a great surprise, for he had somehow procured the famous vaudeville star—(our own Tom Michels), who amused the audience by singing “S’Long Boy.” One Hundred Seventy-one _____=£= ?. 19 - THE CYCLE - 29 S__________________________—EEEErJEEE The first speaker of the evening was our esteemed Dr. Scherger who honored us with one of his highly interesting talks, and what a pleasure it was to give him our undivided attention without having to jot it down in our notes! Dr. Scherger was one of the two men who, eighteen years ago, were instrumental in installing a “Y” branch at this Institute, and he cited many historical incidents which helped to make the organization what it is today. He touched upon the wide scope of the Student Arm of the organization and recounted an experience at the Students’ Convention held at Madison, Wisconsin. Here Dr. Scherger was billeted in a tent with a Hindu Chief. Dr. Scherger said he felt perfectly safe because this Hindu was a member of the Y. M. C. A. but, of course, we are sure that anyone who possessed Dr. Scherger’s personality, together with his extensive knowledge of human nature, would be safe anywhere. Dr. Scherger closed his address by ex- plaining the cooperation between the faculty and students and bidding the Freshmen a hearty welcome in our midst. Mr. Hollister of the Central Y. M. C. A. then gave a brief address in which he kindly offered his help to the student body. He said he would gladly lend his assistance in carrying out any suggestions offered during the year which would improve our branch. Professor Wilcox stated the fundamental purpose of the Association; namely, that the Y. M. C. A. at Armour helps to form friendships. He urged all to join and so make the most of our spare moments between classes. Owing to the fact that the “Gym” was being decorated, the Basket Ball game had to be dropped from the program. This, however, lent prominence to the Swimming Meet, which proved very successful. The most exciting event was the 40 Yard Crawl in which Ray Scherger won a hard fought victory over Bachman. Fancy Diving exhibitions were given by Rupprecht, Corydon and Karlson, in which many original forms were executed. Rupp- recht, who is a life guard during his vacation, excelled in this tournament. After the Swimming Meet refreshments were served consisting of an abundant supply of doughnuts and chocolate. These were served—“ A la Help Yourself.” All present appreciated the services rendered by the officers of the Armour “Y,” especially those of its president, Raymond Scherger, whose pleasing personality won many a new member.

Junior Banquet Just after the strenuous ‘‘Circus Day” afternoon the Juniors will wend their way down the Aviation Club of Chicago for the Annual Junior Banquet. Everybody must be on deck at seven o’clock to indulge in an evening of “Eat, drink and be merry.” What do you mean drink? The banquet is to be one of those full course affairs and believe me what that angry mob of Juniors won’t do to a square meal isn’t worth mentioning. Remember the Aviation Club has a “rep” of giving you a real feed (meaning good food and plenty of it.) Suffice it to say that if the fellows cannot eat all that’s set before them, they will carry what’s left away in their pockets. The speakers of the evening will be the class officers and several members of the faculty. Each spokesman will be feeling good after a hearty repast and be capable of rendering short snappy talks. Stories on an occasion like this come without seeking, so here’s looking forward to some real clever ones. Oh. yes, they must be nice but not naughty. The co-eds in our class will censor anything out of the way. Then the Junior class also boasts of some well known musicians who will favor the party with a few selections. Please take notice that the music will not play while we eat. Why? Oh. because soup will be the first course. Speaking of noise, that Junior class will sure let people know who they are with their Son-of-gun SON-OF-GUN The evening will certainly be one grand and glorious blowout for all those who attend. One Hundred Seventy-jour MX---MX OKI X imx: 2E=S 19-THE CYCLE 20 DiiC x x The Junior Play On May 4th and 5th the annual Junior Play, presented at Central Music Hall by the Class of 1920. was enthusiastically received by large and dem- onstrative audiences. “The Lucky Seventh”, a clever three-act musical com- edy which was written by Everett F. Quinn and Royal A. Chappell of the Class of ’18, and presented by them back in the pre-war days of 1917, was the instrument with which the Juniors proposed to uphold the honor of their class against the long succession of histrionic achievements recorded in the archives of A. 1. 'I'., and be it said to their credit that their play more than held its own among its many worthy predecessors. Fortunately for the class, Kverett Quinn came out to coach the boys and spent a great deal of hard work putting them through their steps. But that his work was rewarded by the success deserving of such labor, is evi- dent from the way the melodies and caperings of the dainty chorus were received by the onlookers. The audiences were delighted with the antics of Albert Spitzglass, Emil Pfafflin, and Rudolph Werner, the fine acting of Derwood S. Chase, Sheldon H. Webster and William Lyon in the principal male parts; and they were pleased beyond expression with the charming portrayal of the female roles by Fred A. Anderson, Mynhart O. Brueckner, George M. Douse, and Leo. S. Maranz. Added to this was the captivating music of a dozen tinkling tunes rendered by the principals and assisted by a chorus whose middle name was “Pep.” Taken all in all the performances left nothing to be desired and their success was loudly acclaimed by the enthusiastic audiences. “Bigger and better than ever” the Juniors had promised us in regard to their play, and “bigger and better than ever” it was.

Who ever heard of a real live class like that of 1921 not having a circus day? That’s right, nobody. The school is actually going to witness a regular old fashioned circus day this year on May 6. The big show will arrive in town on Thursday morning and be ready to start from the word go in the afternoon. The gates to the Ogden Field Circus Kmporium will be opened at one o’clock. You had better come early in order to avoid the mad rush. All those who take part in the circus will be admitted free. A prize of invaluable mention will be given to the one who best acts out the part of the circus character he represents. What about the fairer sex? Oh. they’ll be there too. to take part in the program. You know a circus is not complete without a feminine touch to it. At three o’clock the big show will start but don’t forget to visit the menag- erie first. Here you will see real live animals trained so well that they do not need to be kept in cages. Of interest will be the bears, giraffes, baby ele- phants. and some of the rest of the ferocious verbrates of the jungle. The wild pledges of the fraternities will make excellent monkeys and squirrels. Due caution will be taken to keep the people from feeding these animals but I suppose there will be a few loose nuts around anyway. However old Doc Yak is scheduled to be there in case any of the animals are taken sick. Now for the big three-ring circus performance. Buy your popcorn, pea- nuts. chewing gum. and candy on the way into the large tent. Look at your program and you will find a list of the following events for the remainder of the afternoon. 1 x X X 1. Inter-Fraternity Pageant. 2. Brass Band Serenade. 3. Inter-Fraternity Relay. 4. Inter Class Relay. 5. Inter Class 'Lugs of War. 6. Three ways of Getting Thru College. 7. Mustache Contest. 8. Baseball Game. 9. Circus Parade. 10. All other stunts that comprise a circus. X X One Hundred S vritv-nine DJO • X DUC 19-THE CYCLE-20 J=™= DUC Junior Prom The most successful social season that the Institute has known in years was brought to a fitting end with the Junior Prom of the class of 21. The happiest throng that ever met in the Florentine Room, Congress Hotel, was there on the evening of May th, 1920, on the last day of Junior W eek. True to their word the committee had even excelled their efforts in the first dances, and had made this last prom a “humdinger” in every sense of the word. The room, the programs, the music, the girls, and the girls! Well, we had the time of our lives and the only thing that came to mar the evening’s pleasure was the sound of the peppery band playing the waltz at one o’clock. Once more Spitz’s Band” supplied the incentive to our feet, and anybody who has ever heard them play will vouch for the fact that they made it hard to dance according to Hoyle all the time. Armour is beginning to recognize Peterson’s endeavors as social successes, and this was one of his topnotchers. Circus Da$ at Armour - 1919 Junior Week at Armour had been a thing of the past for a number of years during the war. until the Class of 1920 decided to revive it. Under the able supervision of Marshalls Bready and Jones, great things of fun and mis- chief were planned for and as a result class work became a thing of secondary importance in the minds of the Juniors. The chief event scheduled and which really did occur was the mustache contest. This was the talk of the season at Armour. The conditions were as follows: Juniors and Seniors—physically fit—were eligible to raise a mus- tache for one month, and at the end of that time, judges composed of students not competing and also faculty members, were to decide on the winner and his closest competitor. First prize was to be a silver loving cup, and booby prize, a cigarette holder. But sad to say both foul play and hard luck conspired to make the con- test a failure. First of all the Junior dance came along just before the end of the contest, and the cup chasers who were at first very fond of their “crop” suddenly changed in disposition for fear they might lose their standing with the ladies on dance night, and so. several good contenders fell by the wayside. Prominent among these gentlemen were Henry. Schurman and Mitnick. But pluck still remained and the race went on just as usual with those that did not care to drop out, and all was well until foul play came in. The Juniors had two good contenders, Maranz and Singer, while the leader of the Senior contingent was Gottlieb. He wanted the cup, fair or foul. And so it was de- cided among the Seniors that both Maranz and Singer be ambushed and half of their mustaches be removed. The wrecking squad consisted of Gottlieb. Mitnick, Krickson. Brcady, Jones and Lindstrom. This sextette was all set for its joyful mission. As soon as the judges were aware of this fact, the contest came to a close, undecided. A cup. however, should have been presented to Maranz and Gottlieb for maintaining their mustachiors during the nights of the Junior and Senior dances—also to the ladies that were with them who suffered terribly.

W. Gunsaulus addressed the general student body of the Institute, which had assembled in the Armour Mission. The national anthem was sung in Chorus, while Professor Scherger played the organ. Dr. Gunsaulus began his address in words that accorded the general student body a warm welcome. The opportunities for educational advance- ment along engineering lines in the Institute, were presented in a common sense manner. The steps leading to success in engineering were explained clearly for every student to understand. The speaker told of the growth of the Institute since the year 1891. when Mr. P. I). Armour, whose son J. Ogden Armour now is the benefactor, gave to Dr. Gunsaulus the sum of $1,000,000 to be put into an institution where young men could be trained to become American patriots. The incentive to go on with such an enterprise was received from Cooper’s Institute, Mr. Cooper himself being a close friend of Dr. Gunsaulus. Our President journeyed to Europe, visiting the principal countries in quest of newly improved educational systems. Many European systems were brought home to be modeled after, with the result that an engineering college was built in the form of the Armour Institute of Technology. During the world war, the engineer, as the speaker asserted, was an essential cog in the great works of the various military units. Military en- gineering was the basis of America’s strength in that international conflict. Great structures of wood and iron sprang up every where on what was known as no man’s land, only because of the engineer’s skillful participation in the war. Dr. Gunsaulus concluded his address with an appeal to the general student body to “Carry on” the principles of the engineering profession; to serve the world with a spirit of good will and faithfulness consistent with the ethics of their profession.

It is not for us plebiscite students to delve into the proceedings of such an austere body of Professors, but we have it from good authority that all the National and American League Problems are thoroughly thrashed out behind the great doors of the Club. However, the faculty rooms perform a great service for humanity by affording an excellent recreation centre, where our overworked Professors can read and play at their pleasure. £ X One Hundred Eighty-three Glee and Mandolin Club The Glee and Mandolin Clubs had an early start this year and the call for new men was promptly answered by the best material seen at Armour for many a year. Most of the men of last year’s club were back and with the added new talent a very strong musical organization was formed. The individual stars on the Glee Club were many and as for the Jazz Rand, each man is a superb master of the art of music. The achievements of the clubs this year cannot be too highly praised. Prof. W. G. Smith again accepted the directorship of the Glee Club and his untiring effort did much toward making the success of the Club a reality. Mr. Fred A. Hertwig was elected as the business manager of the clubs and is deserving of much credit for making the Clubs a success financially. Mr. II. K. Anderson was his able assistant. Tom Michels was elected leader of the Glee Club and Mr. A. Spitzglass was elected leader of the Mandolin Club. The Clubs were in great demand and performed at many social gatherings, among which were the following: Tan Beta Pi Alumni Banquet given at the Morrison Hotel, Februarv 12. 1920. where the boys had the opportunity of meeting some of the prominent engineers in the city. The boys enjoyed a good banquet and smokes and had a good time generally. Another pleasant evening was spent in performing for the members of the well known Chicago Aviation Club. The boys were heartily welcomed and after the entertainment the Mandolin Club played for several dances which were enjoyed by all present. One of the most interesting dates the boys had was at the 47th Street Army Hospital located at 47th and Drexel where they had the pleasant op- portunity of entertaining some of the boys wounded in the World War. These wounded fellows were indeed very happy to have the Glee and Mandolin Clubs entertain them and surely showed their appreciation by their loud applause.

'Phe object of the Y. M. C. A. is to provide a place of recreation and study, and to raise the standard of morals of the student body. Any student may join, for the Association is not denominational. A membership in this department entitles the holder to the house privileges at any of the city depart- ments, and those of other cities. The membership also gives the students reduced rates when joining any of the city departments. The affairs of the department are controlled by a Board of Managers, composed of seven faculty and three student members. The fourth officer, tlie Executive Secretary, is appointed by the Board of Managers. The Presi- dent. Recording Secretary and the Executive Secretary compose the three student members of the Board of Managers. 'Phe Association occupies rooms on the third floor of Chapin Mall. 3321 Federal Street. These rooms are nicely furnished and decorated. They are for the use of student members desiring a place for study and recreation.

Cooley.................................. Vice-President A. R. Mehriiof.................................Chief Operator R. J. Grant.........................................Secretary There were many obstacles that presented themselves when it came to erecting a suitable Radio Station, which by its efficiency of design and work- manship would be a credit to Armour. In the first place the men were hard put to find a suitable location for the wireless room, and secondly it was difficult to obtain materials for the station. At last a room was obtained in the Physics Laboratory on the second floor of Chapin Hall. This location is a good one, both for access to the roof of the building and to a ground connection below: it also precluded the proper location of the antenae—the roof of Chapin Hall. A thirtv-foot mast on the south end of the building, fully guyed in ac- cordance with both electrical and mechanical principles supports one end of a four-wire aerial of eighty-foot span. The opposite end is supported by the dome of the Mission Building. This is the short-wave antennae which is used for transmitting purposes and for reception of amateur stations. A second antennae for long-wave reception has also been erected. A short-wave trans- mitting outfit of 1 K. W. capacity, and receiving apparatus of the highest efficiency complete the present Radio Station. Much has been done, but more still is yet to be accomplished. The ambi- tions of the men arc unlimited, however, and with the usual energy of radio “Bugs,” the Armour Radio Association is going forward steadily to make a name for Armour Institute in Radio circles.

At the suggestion of Prof. Gebhardt, the society decided its policy for the year would be to have the President call upon the members for extemporaneous talks upon subjects of their own choice. This policy gives the members an opportunity of talking without previous prepara- tion and develops ready thought and speech. Due to the interest shown in the society by the Freshmen and Sophomores, it was decided that an amendment be made to the constitution whereby the Freshmen and Sophomores of the Mechanical Engineering course might or- ganize as associate members of the A. S. M. E., with their own staff of officers. During the course of the year, the Freshmen-Sophomore branch of the society organized and has been conducting its meetings with remarkable success. The society held its annual smoker on October 22. The smoker was well attended by the Freshmen and Sophomores, who had been invited as guests of the society. Prof. Gebhardt gave a very interesting talk on the values derived from the A. S. M. E. Among the speakers and subjects presented during the course of the year, were the following: Mr. I. J. Bready, Water Purification by Zeolite Process;” Mr. J. M. Stone, “Turbine Driven Marine Units:” Mr. C. T. Walters, “Motor Car Spring Suspension;” Mr. M. M.

Jkff Corydon, Jr.............................President Otto Kueiin............................ Vice-President G. D. WethKrbKK..............................Secretary This year a new society made its appearance at Armour and had a very successful season. It is the Freshman-Sophomore A. S. M. E., and all Mechanicals in the lower classes are invited to become members. The meetings have been well attended but we expect even more out when the fellows learn what they are missing bv not coming. In former years, membership was limited to Juniors and Seniors, and there was no organization in which under-classmen could take an active part. Therefore, a suggestion was made at a meeting of the Junior-Senior society that a new society be formed. This met the approval of those present, and Mr. Jeff Corydon was appointed temporary chairman. The first meeting, held November 14. was for the purpose of organization and there was no other program. Officers were elected, and after a short talk by the president on the purposes and aims of A. S. M. E., the meeting was adjourned. The policy for the present will be to have the president call on members for extemporaneous talks on any subject they wish to discuss, thus giving them practice in the valuable accomplishment of being able to present a subject to a body of men in a clear manner without getting stage fright. And as Professor Gebhardt says, it is often well to be able to talk when you have nothing to say. The first regular meeting was held January 9, 1.920. The speakers were Mr. Rupprecht, Mr. Wenclick, Mr. Erickson, Mr. Seben, Mr. Juraska, Mr. Manske. Most of the talks were short, but the material and delivery were quite good. On March 16, we were fortunate enough to have Professor Gebhardt talk to us. He impressed on us the importance of our Engineering Society and said no subject was more important than these meetings. As an illustration, he pointed out that nearly all of the most successful Armour graduates had been active in their Engineering Society while at school. He emphasized the im- portance of being able to talk to an assemblage of men. The hour was closed by a very interesting talk by Mr. Werner on refrigeration machines and their use in Australia.

SeyFERUCI-i...............................Chairman H. Dk Forest Stevers................................Secretary James SmELY.........................................Treasurer 'Phc Armour Institute of Technology Branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers was organized on February 26, 1903. The main purpose of the organization, as provided by the Institute, is to gain a proper perspective of engineering work, by enabling one to become acquainted with the personnel and the problems of those engaged in it. Among the chief advantages which result from the student’s relationship with the Institute are the folowing: The honor, benefit, and stimulation which necessarily result from participation in the various activities for and of the Institute, as well as from direct relationship with the national organization and association with those prominent in the electrical industry. THE INSTITUTE is a national body representing the highest standards of the engineering profession. The badge gives you recognition everywhere as a progressive engineer, and you are therefore enabled to increase your contact and relations with the leaders of the electrical industry. In order to enable the student to obtain and enjoy to a greater extent, the advantages and privileges of the Institute, the general plan adopted by the Executive Branch was to attend as much as possible the meetings of the Chicago Section, held jointly with the Electrical Section of the Y. S. E.. mainly for the purpose of hearing and becoming acquainted with those more prominent in the Engineering and Industrial development of the world; and then for the further development of the student’s initiative and ability to speak in public. The speakers for the Local Branch meetings were in general, either local members or members of the Alumni. For the first time in the history of Armour, the student body, as well as the Local Branch, had the opportunity of hearing and making the acquaintance of Dr. Charles Proteus Steinmetz, prominent Consulting Engineer and Pro- fessor in Electrical Engineering. The Branch and its officers wish to take this opportunity to thank Presi- dent Gunsaulus, Deans Monin and Raymond. Professors Freeman and Snow, and all others, whose hearty co-operation gained the presence of the eminent Dr. Steinmetz.

I • Armour Branch Western Society of Engineers Hi The upper classmen and faculty of the civil engineering department began their activities on October 13, 1919, by reorganizing the old Armour Civil Engineering Society. There was an election of officers and an appointment of a committee to draw up a constitution and set of by-laws which were to be submitted to the Western Society of Engineers, with an application for affilia- tion as a branch of that society. The energetic manner in which our officers pushed the matter is evidenced in the fact that by November 17, 1919, we had been established as a branch and had held our first meeting as such, electing officers for the year 1919 as follows: W. J. Wignall, President; H. K. Ander- son, Vice-President; J. Frank, Treasurer; E. Dasing, Secretary; W. K. Lyon, Jr., Assistant Secretary. During the remainder of the year we held regular meetings and enjoyed very interesting and instructive talks by well known engineers, faculty and student members. At the meeting of February 2. officers were elected for the year 1920. 'I'he following were chosen to guide us through the calendar year: R. M. Singer, President; G. Kumbera, Vice-President; G. V. Peterson. Treasurer; W. K. Lyon. Jr., Secretary. During the meetings following we were very fortunate in securing the services of Mr. E. E. Perkins and Mr. T. L. Condron as speakers and profited by their instruction as given by practical examples from their long experience. D. S. Chase gave a very interesting talk on his experiences in concrete construction and the obstacles to be overcome in this line of work. 'I'he activities of our organization will inevitably continue to be up to the standard set by its first year, for as a branch of the Western Society of Engineers we now enjoy all of the privileges of this well known society and they stand ready at all times to cooperate with us and to assist us in even- possible way. We have at our own disposal a list of prominent engineers, any one of whom we may call ujxm to address our society. The board of managers feels that the present arrangement has been, and will continue to be, very beneficial and it is hoped that the members that follow will recognize the invaluable privileges that are being presented.

President Vice-President Secretory Treasurer The Armour Chemical Engineering Society was organized as a means of bringing the student body into closer relations with the ideas of men prominent in their Profession. Added to this was the desire to have members address the Society at frequent intervals and thus acquire confidence and facility of speech so valuable in professional life. The Society limits its membership to Juniors and Seniors but encourages the attendance of Sophomores and Fresh- man at the meetings. The A. C. E. S. held its first meeting and annual election on September 30th. The meetings have been held, on an average, three weeks apart and have been better attended than usual for many years back. The Freshmen and Sophomores have shown a growing interest in the Society and it is hoped that this can be fostered. We have been very fortunate this year in obtaining talks from men well known in the Chemical Profession. The meetings have proven very interesting and we believe all the members have profited greatly. A few of the more popular lectures were: “What We Expect of the Young Technical Graduate,’' by Prof. H. McCormack: “The Business Side of Chemistry.” by Mr. Eisenschimel; “Colloid Chemistry and its Application,” by Mr. R. H. Coleman. Several other noted chemists have also honored us by consenting to appear before the society at a future date. The Society wishes to extend its thanks to the Faculty and Speakers for their generous aid in making this one the most successful year the Society has seen. Walter J. Bentley, Secretary.

S.. tinder the able leadership of its president, Pat Steinberg, started out to make the year of 1920 a banner one insofar as the architects were concerned. Before starting our campaign in earnest however, a transfusion of new blood into the society was effected when the peppy Freshman were initiated into the society with the usual pomp and arduous ceremonies on November the 23rd. The interim was well filled with smokers, dinners, lectures, dances and theater parties and ended with the famous Mardi Gras held April the 8th. Pat and his able lieutenants with the assistance of the boys did their best to add a little interest and excitement to Prof. Campbell's uneventful scholastic regime. In fact they succeeded so well that Mr. Campbell found it necessary to acknowledge their endeavors bv holding a number of conferences, with the result that Mr. Campbell, as well as being quite a force in the architectural world, has imbibed numerouscapabilities along theChatauqua line, and the boys have come to the conclusion that studying architecture once in a while is not such a bad idea after all. The misery quartet consisting of Popkin. Karlson. Sparling and O’Connor helps to inspire the boys once in a while in their architectural pursuits by their symphony and jazz melodies. In fact their reputation reached such a height that even the faculty became impressed. As a result the Miserites forget and leave their instruments of shimmy fame home once in a while. Professor Campbell thinks that architecture is a noble art. The annual Prize Competition in Design was finished in the usual form on the night of March 23rd. The prize was awarded to W illiam J. O’Connor. 2nd place going to Jacob Popkin. The old Ecole looks with pride upon the scholastic record made by the boys this year, and knows beyond doubt that if they make as much progress in the future as they have in the past their success in the architectural world is assured.

I f you can dream and not make dreams your master; If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with triumph and disaster And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build ’em up again with worn-out tools. If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch and toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart, and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the will which says to them: “Hold on”. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings—nor lose the common touch. If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill each unforgiving minute With sixty seconds worth of distance run, Yours is the earth and everything that’s in it, And—which is more—you’ll be a MAY, my son! Kipling. Two Hundred Ten . -Tzrzxsc zhkzzzmk: Disc DIXZZZZZXO ___19-THE CYCLE-20 � JH?J=====H: OK-----XX= Sunbeams A Report by the Eminent Prof. G. Howie Raves before the Assinian Society of Utopian Engineers. Mr. Chairman and Fellow Assinians: It pleases me to he able to give much of the credit for the following theory to the late lamented Prof. Ima Knutt. In his celebrated Almanac. Prof. Knutt proves definitely that within the next twenty years there is certain to occur in that part of the United States north of the Ohio River a most sudden drop of temperature. This will probably take place during the months of January or February, and may be as much as from plus 40° to minus 40° F. Such an occurrence would be accompanied by most serious consequences. If it oc- curred within the space of 30 seconds, as Prof. Knutt seems to believe, the beautiful clouds now floating peaceably above, would suddenly congeal and fall enmasse upon our heads. The damage wrought in rural districts would be a minimum, but in the great cities, much loss of life and property would inevitably result. For example the weight of but one cloud can be calculated as follows: Approximate dimensions = 3000 x 5000 x 50 Volume = 750,000,000 cu. ft. Density of water vapor = .0005 lbs. per cu. ft. Weight of cloud = 750,000,000 x .0005 = 37,500 lbs. Now the velocity acquired in a fall of one miles and the kinetic energy gained thereby may be found. V2 = 2gh V = 584 ft. per sec. K. E. = MV2 = 200,000,000 ft. lbs. This energy, if released at one time, as would here be the case, would be sufficient to destroy the entire loop district of Chicago. If three or four such clouds should fall together, the damage inflicted could scarcely be imagined. It is with the prevention of such a calamity that the author wishes to deal. It is obviously impossible to develop a protective system for the whole region involved, as the outlay necessary would not be justified. It is perfectly pos- sible, however, to protect our great cities. There arc two methods available. The first, and most easily conceived, would be to support the clouds upon a frame-work of steel or concrete covering the metropolis under consideration. Manifestly, there are disadvantages to this method. The cost would primarily be excessive. The labor involved would render other building impossible at the time, and it is doubtful if there is sufficient material in the world. Then too, such a structure would cut off the source of light of a large part of the surrounding country. From this reasoning it is quite easily seen that a structure of steel or concrete beams is out of the question. There is left, then, as a sole preventive Two Hundred Eleven ?J!_______UE� 19- THE CYCLE-20 ?S£ of such a calamity, the pride of the author’s nimble brain—a structure com- posed of— SUNBEAMS! The natural advantages of such a construction are obvious. Sunbeams are plentiful; they would cut off no light from the surrounding country—nay, they would add to it. Prof. Einstein has recently proved that they have weight, whence it is quite possible to use them to support the clouds, the sun itself being one support, and a high spot on the earth the other. Of course some research work would first have to be gone into. The following possibilities are suggested: The mass of a sunbeam could be accurately measured by exposing a light absorbing substance of known weight to a beam of light of known cross section for a known length of time. It could then be weighed again, and the gain would represent the weight of the sunbeam. Multiplying the time by the velocity of light would give the length of the beam, and as the sectional area is known, the volume could easily be calculated. The weight divided by this volume would give the density of the sunbeam under consideration. The deflection of a sunbeam due to the elements could easily be computed. The formula for the deflection of a simple beam reads as follows: KWL® Deflection =--------- El All of these quantities are either known or can be determined. K is a constant depending on the nature of the beam. Y is the mass of the clouds to be sup- ported. L is the distance from the sun to the earth. 1 is the moment of inertia of the beam (easily found from its dimensions). E is the modulus of elasticity of light, the determination of which is discussed in the next paragraph. This deflection must be considered in determining the height of the structure sup- porting the beams upon the earth. The modulus of elasticity of light could best be determined by photomi- crography. A beam of light of known dimensions could be supported on suit- able foundations in the laboratory dark room and a modern motion picture camera, operating at about 500 exposures per second, could be set up in front of it. A drop of water of known weight could be placed upon the center of the beam, and the camera operated. From the photographic record thus obtained, the deflection could be measured. As the other values in the above formula are known, the modulus of elasticity could easily be calculated. Other factors will probably enter the problem of sun beam study, and should be taken up in due time. Among these are the effect of moisture upon the strength of a sun beam (particularly of thundershowers) ; the effect of the friction of the atmosphere upon the velocity of light (in view of the Einstein theory); the factors of safety to be allowed: the probable effect of electric storms upon beams exposed to them: and the loss in the density of light due to its passing through a rainy day. All of these factors must be studied in detail before the problem can be solved. We shall now consider the practical side of the problem. As explained before, the proposition is to support the clouds upon sunbeams, one end of T tv o II u 11 dred T tv el ve 19-TUE CYCLE. 20 £=”!___________:.-.: =?u == fe be be x which rests upon the sun, and the other upon the earth. As this framework is to cover the cities only, it might he well to erect a supporting wall on the north side of all towns north of the Tropic of Cancer. This wall should be of the height of the clouds and should extend in a semicircle about the city, to take into account the fact that the sun travels across the horizon and is in the East in the morning and in the West in the afternoon. To avoid unnecessary expense, it is suggested that a semicircular railway track be built about the city, and that a wall of sufficient width to support beams covering the metro- polis, be mounted upon it. This structure would then be moved from West to East as the sun moves from East to West, in order to support the beams covering the city. As to the structure of the wall itself, the author is somewhat in doubt. A wall one mile high, made of concrete, might be of too great weight to be supported by ordinary steel rails. A steel structure on the order of the Eiffel Tower might serve the purpose better. The top of the wall must, however, present enough friction surface to prevent the sunbeams from sliding off. To aid in the prevention of such an accident, it is suggested that the sunbeams be fastened to the wall by means of thunderbolts. As the number of these in captivity is comparatively small, the alternative of electric sparks, such as are used in wireless, is possible. The difference in shearing strength between the spark and the thunderbolt is not enough to cause serious difficulty, if enough sparks arc used. The spacing should not be less than .0001 inch, as the sun- beams are rarely wider than that. The above method should work excellently in the daytime, but as we all know, sunbeams are conspicuous by their absence at night, and the tensile strength of moonbeams is not sufficient for the purpose in view. As the nights are always colder than the days, the danger of the calamity described in the first paragraph is increased fourfold. The author has, however, a scheme which will circumvent this difficulty. He suggests that gigantic searchlights be mounted upon the wall, and that between sunset and sunrise, their beams be cast beneath the clouds. The effect produced will be that of a cantilever, which will of necessity increase the strain upon the wall. Care must be taken to secure the searclilight firmly in the wall, and to encase the incandescent filament in material strong enough to prevent it being torn out by the terrific strain imposed. The current used for the lights would have to be generated by special dynamoes, as they would be in service at the time when the city lights would also be in use. It might be possible to store up enough current during the daytime in storage batteries for use in the night. This would save much of the installation cost, as such large dynamoes would not be necessary. Such is the theory of the use of sunbeams as outlined by the author. He does not intend it to be at all comprehensive, but merely as an outline for future scientific development. He believes that his basic principles are sound, and sincerely hopes that his idea will be taken up and developed to its full extent. Note: Any mathematical or scientific errors in the above article will kindly be excused, as the library at Dunning contains no books on those subjects.—Editor. xH OJC DOC DtKZZDOC DIXZ Two Hundred Thirteen ---- vr- ..—.. =xo XKZZZMK DIO •+?c oxz= ni ■ 0 ■S— =a=!!£ 19-THE CYCLE-20 =”5 Does your Engineering Societ Mean Anything to You ? Have you ever pictured in a technical way, the meaning of your Student Engineering Society? On the following page we have the author’s conception of the importance of the A. I. E. E., as it appears from the student point of view. He has drawn and arranged in logical order the various parts of an alternating-current lighting circuit representing the successive steps taken by the student of electricity, on the road to success in his chosen profession. Not only has the progress of the individual been portrayed, but an attempt has been made to show also the advancement of the industry itself. Do you think the compari- son a good one, and the parts properly arranged? In order to understand more fully the author’s mode of reasoning, let us carefully analyze the diagram. First, we have the Student Badge of the A. I. E. E., representing the source of energy, for the symbol is generally used to designate an alternating- current generator. Analogous to the source of energy is the electrical circuit, or in other words the generator, we have a source of successful engineers, the Student Branch of the A. I. E. E. In order to utilize properly this generated energy, a step-up transformer is provided, by means of which the power gen- erated at comparatively low voltage, may be transformed or converted into power of sufficiently high voltage to maintain the lights of Ambition, Energy, and Success, and to keep them burning brightly. Thus we have represented by the transformer the transcending of the individual from student to engineer: the primary circuit depicting the present, and the secondary symbolizing the future. As the center of distribution for this power in the secondary, there is the badge of the Institute itself, which is representative of the importance of the national organization in the electrical world. The two interlocking rings or circles, which appear on the national A. I. E. E. Badge, are symbolical of an alternating-current machine, and in the circuit under discussion may be thought of as an additional source of energy, to be resorted to in the event that our primary source “break down,” or otherwise as a synchronous machine provided for the betterment of conditions in the secondary. In this manner, should the Student Branch, or Branches prove to be a failure in supplying material for developing successful engineers, the national A. I. E. E.. may be resorted to. Therefore, figuratively speaking, the Institute is the heart of the entire circuit, and is by far the most necessary adjunct for the satisfactory operation of the lamps of Ambition, Energy, and Success. As indicated in the diagram the three lights. Ambition, Energy, and Success, are necessarily operated in series, for without Ambition and Energy, Success is impossible. Likewise, when referring to the industry itself, Progress is impossible without Co-operation and Effort. Having carefully considered the equation, Ambition Success =-------------- Energy in which all quantities have finite values, it was concluded that such a series circuit would be the most appropriate to show the relationship existing be- tween these quantities. Should any one of the three lights burn out it is evident that an open circuit exists, and hence the others will remain out. The degree of illumination for each lamp would necessarily depend upon the amount of Ambition and Energy possessed by the individual. In this manner with a constant voltage in the primary and secondary, and operating under other ideal Two Hundred Fourteen in I X OK 25EEEEE5B2 19 -THE CYCLE -20 ZE5� ==$g 33CZZZHK 7W Hundred Fifteen be a, HK MKZHXK BK ..« 310 OK PS + HK ■S 5C % y 19-THE CYCLE-20 SS“ conditions, the amount of Ambition, Energy, and Success of any individual, would depend solely on the resistance of the respective lamps, or in other words Energy and Ambition are measured by resistance. In a similar way the entire system may be analyzed with respect to the industry and the progress made therein. Referring once more to the individual, it is the aim of the Institute to produce and develop qualified engineers. Dr. Mann has compiled from replies of seven thousand engineers, the following list of qualities and their respective weights, the summation of which total one hundred per cent. This list is considered a standard by the greater proportion of successful engineers. 1. Character........................................24.00% Personality. Responsibility Physique and Neatness.

This college life sure is the berries.” A few wise “birds” in the senior Mechanical Department have just decided that things were sailing too smoothly, so they ups and decides to initiate some of their fellow students into the R. O. S. S. P. Local No. i (That R. O. S. S. P. is not some jerk water railroad but means Royal Order of Shoe and Sock Pullers.) You see the way the royal order started was like this. One of the boys happened to have on a pair of dazzling white socks. These same pedal envelopes were quite inconspicuous until we hit our 9:30 lecture. Xow this class usually has a decided lethargic effect on its members. However on tins day all apathy was gone. Even the room seemed brighter. Of course, such a state of affairs was pretty bad as the boys in the back row could not con- centrate on their hydraulics, while the boobs in the first row could not get interested in volts and amperes as they were dealt out without concern by the prof. The royal order must have started by spirits (not C2H5OH) because at the end of the hour there was a High Muck-a-Muck and a willing band of disciples. The white socks with their owner inside them, following the schedule made for them bv the deans, proceeded across the campus, which consists of 60 ft. of asphalt boarded on each side by twelve feet of sidewalk. No sooner did the socks gain entrance to Machinery Hall than did they meet the High Muck-a-Muck of the R. O. S. S. P. along with his whole band. In the next few minutes the Royal Order of Shoe and Sock Pullers lived up to the title of their organization to the extent of one sock. This trophy was exhibited with pride on the radiator during the next lecture and afterward was allowed to return to its fold around its owner’s left foot. The next victim of the R. O. S. S. P. was a tough Junior who during one of Chas. Goodman’s celebrated assemblies in the Mission disregarded ail the traditions of that hall by ensconcing himself in the Senior section. Nothing was done until the close of the assembly when with a whoop and a yell the bloodthirsty, no, I mean sock thirsty, crew descended on the unsuspecting Junior and de-fested him of both shoes and socks and took them across the street. They were then exhibited with pride to the baseball cups. And to get back to our de-fcated Junior the poor old thing had to go across our campus barefooted, and then proceed to the Dean's Office for His Shoes and Socks. Moral: Go slow and easy, or the R. O. S. S. P. will get you if you don’t watch out. X I bi Two Hundred Seventeen x X 19-THE CYCLE-20 9 = Exp. Mo. L-I First life experience. A Mechanical Analysis of an Armour Student in his Four Years at School. Object: To make a complete analysis of the attitude and accomplishments of an Armour Student in Four Years. Apparatus: Armour Institute of Technology; an Armour Student. Operation: Upon the completion of his High School course, the young lad mechanically inclined turned his thoughts upon going to a technical school. Naturally Armour, being in a class by itself, became his choice. His first experience came in his interview with the Deans one week before he commenced his college course. Here he became acquainted with the higher elements of the school and was rather highly impressed with the college air abounding. He went home that night and talked things over with the folks and they decided that it would be necessary for him to cease his midnight adven- tures along purely recreation lines. And so lie became a Freshman. His first experience on the opening day was a four-hour wait to see Dean Raymond and have his High School credits checked and his new course laid out. On the next day he was formally introduced to the professors teaching in the Freshman department. Lessons were assigned and he was determined to buckle down to business. For the first year his time was actively engaged in combating the stiff elements in the Freshman course. His attitude is clearly shown on the curve accompanying this article. During the second year he was occupied with calculus, mechanics, and physics. These kept him fairly busy and no outside connections did he make this year. The third year however marked a change in his attitude towards things. Dances given bv the school together with various other school activities began to creep into his wayward mind and displace his zeal for pure school work. Valve Gears and Dynamics no longer did he crave for. He skipped from the Junior drawing room whenever a chance presented itself, and in History of Heat Engines” he either slept or wrote a letter to his sweetheart if there was enough light creeping in thru a hole in the window shade. At times the pro- fessor talked too loud and so sleeping was rather hard. He now came upon his fourth year and the last lap. He was determined to buckle down to business but this determination did not last long, and it was not long before he was absent twice a week from Thermodynamics and slept thru the other three periods. His zeal crept lower and lower as is indicated by the accompanying curve until, near the time of commencement, he struck the bottom, and if it weren’t for the fact that the course is only four years long he would have gone below the zero line. Conclusion: They say that all is well that ends well, but if that were the case the conclusions herewith derived would indicate no sense in taking more than a two year course; but in behalf of the students of Armour Tech, we have made one exception to this old proverb—viz., the Armour graduate.

Seyeerijch, ’20 Eta Kappa Nu is an honorary, electrical engineering fraternity. It was founded at the University of Illinois, (Urbana, Illinois). October 28. 1904. for the closer co-operation among, and the mutual benefits to, students and others in the profession, who, by their attainments, either in college or in practice, manifest exceptional interest and marked ability in Electrical En- gineering. In the comparatively few years since its founding, the fraternity has made such rapid progress, that it has become the most highly esteemed, and well- known organization of its kind. There are now eleven active Chapters of Eta Kappa Nu, located in as many different Universities or Engineering Schools of recognized standing, and, which offer an Electrical Engineering Course of established merit. The value of these chapters to the students, colleges, and alumni, becomes more evident when one considers the fact that every active chapter that Eta Kappa Nu has established, has always remained active; and, that in cer- tain cases, members of the alumni, after having left school and gained actual practice and experience in the profession, have continued their activities in the Fraternity, and have extended their interest in it by establishing alumni chapters, which are located in seven of the largest cities in the United States. Not only is Eta Kappa Nu an honorary fraternity, organized for the recognition of merit, but it also embodies a spirit of brotherly-love and help- fulness, such as that found only in those Organizations, whose members strive for a full understanding of each other, in order that mutual benefit may be derived from their association. Besides having a high scholarship standing, the H. K. N. Man is recognized nationally, as one possessing that desirable type of personality, as well as other good qualities, that will make him a de- pendable citizen, of whom both his Alma Mater and his Chosen Profession may well l e proud. Delta Chapter was chartered at the Armour Institute of Technology in 1909. and having been located in a great city, has always maintained a high standard in activities. Jts members are selected from the Junior and Senior classes, and its membership includes those whose ability and zeal, shown in the pursuance of their studies, marks them as the men most likely to reach the top in their chosen profession. Our Chapter has lived up to its high standard in social traditions during the past year, and since the initiation of last spring, has given social functions on the average of two per school month, many of which were given in con- junction with affairs of the Chicago Alumni Chapter. Besides these social functions, the local Chapter holds regular business meetings in the Chanter rooms everv Wednesday, and also sends two delegates to the National Con- vention of Eta Kappa Nu, each year. In closing, it may be of great interest to state that the motto and “W AR CRY” of Eta Kappa Xu is “LET'S GO”, and after looking at the calender of the more important events of the year, you may rest assured that the Delta Boys lived up to it.

The purpose of the society is the improvement of ath- letics and the promotion of good fellowship at Armour. An organization of this kind also aids in bringing out available material and hence in stimulating competition for the various places on the teams. With the heartily co-operation of the Executive Council and Faculty, this society was very active up to the spring of 1917. At that time the Executive Council as a war measure, tenijjorarily abolished inter-collegiate athletics. That sounded like a death knell for the Honor “A” Society, as no more eligible members could be taken in until athletics were again revived. As each suc- ceeding class graduated, the active membership of the society decreased until at the opening of the present school year there were only two members, Bill Erickson and Ira Bready, in school. With the revival of athletics this year, the society resumed its activities. At the close of the basketball season, Spencer Havlick, Maxmillian May. Harry Albeck. Otto Kueiin and Gerald Schumacker were admitted to membership in the “A” society. With its increased membership, the society is now working hard to attain the purpose and ideals for which it was organized. A few of the most important articles in the constitution read as follows: Art. 2. Sec. i. The society is to serve as a working unit for all “A” men in the discussion of athletic questions and (Sec. 2) to secure and preserve all records of athletic teams. Art. 3. Sec. 1. Any student of Armour Institute who has won a letter in any of the three major sports, (basket-ball, base-ball, or track) is eligible for membership.

Lyrics: Walter M. Seyferlicli Music: Oscar Gardner You’ll remember Sung Fong Lou, In the “Chinese Blues.” She was loved by Fan Tan Man, And how she loved him too. At evening when his work was done, They loved to bill ar.d coo; There they’d sing to their Yellow King, As he rose into their view. Chorus. Chinky Moon! Chinky Moon! Please don’t bother us tonight, Hide your face and dim your light, Won't you give us a chance to love and spoon. Oh! Chinky M on! Cries the pretty little China girl. Oh! Chinkv Moor! Go and shine upon some other world. She cries at him, What’s the matter with you? Let’s hope those Melicans shoot that Big Chinky-man-in-the-moon. Later on in “Fan Tan Man,” The Chinese married life, Lured our little Chira-man So he made Loki his wife. They bought a Chinese bungalow, Down near the Golden Gate. And now when Fan Tan Man comes home, This song he will relate. Coprig ht 1920, Seyferlicli and Gardner. CALIFORNIA BLUES. Lyrics by Music by Walter M. Seyferlicli Oscar Gardner My thoughts take me all thro’ the day, About two thousand miles away; To a quaint old bungalow In that balmy, tropical clime. There’s were it’s summer all o’the time, Ard the Sunkist oranges grow. I’ve heard the calling of my dear old home, And now I’m bound to go; Chorus. My train goes back on the track that’ll take me to Frisco, Back to the state with the beautiful orange groves, I can hardly wait to see that Golden Gate, And you surely can believe me. I’ll make a call just as soon as I reach there, A call on my all,—yes,—my all of a peach there I’m going hack to my California home. I can picture things as they were About the time I went away, Arourd the house the old grape vines Entwine themselves, forever to stay. How I long to see all the folks Who wish that I were back. ’Just received a letter from my dear old dad, So I guess I’d better pack. Chorus. SAN Oriental Fox Trot Words and Music by McPhail Michels King San of Senegal, Sat on the shore at Bulahmav Singing a sad refrain, To his dear queen, who’d gone away, This was his lay: Chorus Oh, sweetheart Lona, my darling Lona Why have you gone away. You said you loved me, but if You loved me, why did you act this way? If I had ever been untrue to you What you have done would be the thing to do, But my heart aches, dear, Ar.d it will break dear.

THE SOB OF ANOTHER STRIPE. I’ve braved the dangers of the Battalion of Death, And even braved the Flu. I’ve stuck to my post under a barrage of grouch, But the stripe didn’t come through. I’ve saluted my superiors in regular style, As a trick Ensign should, And said “Sir” when I meant “go plumb to Hell,” And wish b’God they would. Where, O, where is that slim stripe of gilt, That band of glittering gold, My sleeves are worn, shiny and bare, My lonely stripe is old. Where, O, where is that forty per month That goes with another stripe, The Commander said I would get it sure, He should have said I might. Where, 0, where is the graft they pull, That adds that little band, It’s worked on sleeves that were old or new, Some that were second hand. I’ve done my worst with paper, pen and ink. To land that extra lace, And now I'm the sole surviving Ensign left, In the whole darn place. The title of Lieutenant is not for me, The stripe has gone t’hell, No N. C.’s or D. S. O.’s behind my name, Just plain Ensign S. O. L. Now I’ve lost my hope for higher rank, Just a one-striper I’ll be, The two in the Navy who can go no higher. Are Admiral Sims and Me.

Grant no other sailor take My shoes and socks before I wake. Prof. Freud—“How do you manage to make so much noise in this labora- tory? Fishman—“Well, just you try break- ing four beakers and a condenser with- out making any noise.” jc Please, Lord, guard me in my slumber; Keep my hammock on it’s number. May r.o clews or lashes break And smash my nut before I wake. Keep me safely in Thy sight; Grant no fire drills here tonight. And in the morning let me wake ’Mid haunting smells of sirloin steak. Lord, protect me in my dreams; Make things better than they seem. Grant four years may quickly fly, And all hardships pass me by. Oh! that billowy feather bed Where I long to rest my head Far from all the hellish scenes And the smell of half-baked beans. Take me back to solid land, Where they scrub no decks with sand. Where no demon typhoon blows And the women wash the clothes. Lord, Thou knowest all my woes, Kindly cure my sun-burned nose. Take me home to a field of clover And I’ll promise I'll not ship-over. AMEN! A n ti-Proh ibit ion. Prof. Childs— “Tomorrow we shall finish the second case. Come prepared.

The Armour Institute of Technology, deserves the credit of originating the first and most successful fluid measur- ing device or Flow Meter. The experimental work, conducted in the Mechanical Department, under the supervision of Prof. G. F. Gebhardt. was continued by graduates of the Institute until a meter was developed that in its accuracy, reliability and convenience competes with any scientific device that was ever applied for this purpose. In order to show our indebtedness and appreciation to the Institute, we extend to all graduates, the privilege of calling upon us when- ever confronted with any problems involving the flow of fluids, or in determining sizes of pipes, etc. Our new factory located at 2240 Diversey Blvd.. Chicago, employs a staff of Armour Graduates who are waiting to give you, cheerfully, the necessary information. Sincerely yours, REPUBLIC FLOW METERS CO., J. M. Spitzglass, Class ‘09.
