ILLINOIS VOLUME XXIII COPYRIGHT 1935 FOREWORD THOUGH MANY CHANGES HAVE BEEN EVIDENCED IN THE INSTITUTE SINCE THE CLASS OF NINETEEN THIRTY FIVE FIRST ENTERED HER PORTALS. THE PRINCIPAL SOURCES OF EXTRACURRICULAR INTEREST AND ACHIEVEMENT HAVE REMAINED AS TRADITION HAS DICTATED. AS WE LOOK FORWARD. WE CAN ONLY HOPE THAT WHATEVER NEW CHAPTER IS IN STORE FOR ARMOUR THESE OLD TRADITIONS WILL REMAIN INTACT; OR SHOULD THEY NEED BE REPLACED, THAT THE NEW ORDER OF THINGS WILL BE A BETTERMENT. IT IS A PURPOSE OF THE 193S CYCLE TO RECORD THESE ESTABLISHED PRECEDENTS FOR THE GUIDANCE OF SUCCEEDING CLASSES. A FURTHER AIM OF THIS YEAR'S CYCLE HAS BEEN SO TO PORTRAY THE STUDENT LIFE BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM BY PICTURES, PROSE. AND ART WORK THAT MEMORIES OF OUR DAYS AT TECH WILL BE PRESERVED FOREVER. WHETHER IT BE ONCE A WEEK OR ONCE EVERY TEN YEARS THAT THIS VOLUME BE REMOVED FROM ITS PLACE IN THE TECHAWK'S BOOKCASE. IT WILL HAVE SERVED ITS DESIGNS IF IT BUT REFRESHES THE REMINISCENCES OF THOSE SOMETIMES JOYOUS. SOMETIMES STRENUOUS. AND ALWAYS ACTIVE DAYS SPENT AT ARMOUR. DEDICATION HENRY TOWNLEY HEALD DEAN-ENGINEER-SCHOLAR INASMUCH AS HE HAS IN THE SHORT SPAN OF A YEAR AS DEAN OF ARMOUR INSTITUTE ENDEARED HIMSELF TO ALL HER STUDENTS AND BECAUSE HE HAS SO CAPABLY FULFILLED ALL OF THE TRYING DUTIES OF HIS OFFICE AS COUNSELLOR AND ADMINISTRATOR. THE CYCLE OF NINETEEN THIRTY FIVE IS DEDICATED TO HENRY TOWNLEY HEALD. NEVER IS A DAY TOO BUSY OR NEVER A MINUTE TOO SHORT THAT DEAN HEALD WILL NOT FIND TIME TO HELP THE INEXPE- RIENCED FRESHMAN.

AND INDUSTRY. SHOULD HAVE MANY MORE USEFUL YEARS IN WHICH TO SERVE THE STUDENTS OF ARMOUR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY. IN MEMORIAM TRUSTEE LEO F. WORMSER Born—July 6, 1884 Died—August 9. 1934 The tragic death of Loo F. Wormsor takes from Armour a man who had ably served on her Board of Trust©© for nearly two years. Mr. Wormser was a graduate of Armour Academy in 1901 and was a prominent Chicago attorney. PROFESSOR VAN BAUMAN TEACH Bora—January 6. 1898 Died—September 8, 1934 The loss from tho faculty of Van Bauman Toach was a sad blow to the many Armour students who had com© to lovo him as ho guldod thorn through tho higher realms of mathematics. Profossor Toach graduated from Ohio Stato University in 1919 and had boon with the Institute sine 1927. FELLOW STUDENT WILLARD C. McCARTY Born—November 29. 1913 Died—August 17. 1934 With tho untimely death of Willard Carlock McCarty last summer, the Class of 1935 was bereaved of one of its finost mombors. Willard was a schol- arship student in Fire Protection Enginooring and a member of Phi Kappa Sigma. He will long be remomborod for his friendly nature, his pleasing personality, and his good humor.

PAGE 203 MAIN BUILDING ARMOUR MISSION ART INSTITUTE I A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF ARMOUR ARMOUR—PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE Without parade or display Armour, for tho past forty years, has rendered dis- tinguished service, not alono in Engineering but in other fields. The first president was a notable citizon of Chicago and the nation; an eloquent preacher, a patron of art. Armour's leading professor of mechanical engineering, now emeritus, contributed in successive editions an authoritative work on Power Plant Engineering used through- out the land. It is beliovod that the first instruction in Aerodynamics and Airplane Design was offored here; our graduates did important aeronautical work in the world war. From our Electrical Laboratory, Leo De Forest sent one of the earliest radio messages ever transmitted. In 1908. Armour started the first unit operation laboratory work ever offered in chemical engineering. Our fir© protection engineering course is unique. Members of our architectural staff did distinctive work designing and executing artistic feature- at A Contury of Progress, and our diroctor has for some timo boen doing important reasoarch into Midwest Pioneer Architecture. An Armour profossor made the lens f;r the Arcturus ceremony at the Fair. Armour alumni have also brought great credit to its name. One of our most active alumni trustees is an outstand ing architect and buildor. An alumnus, now state architect, designed the Illinois Host Building at A Century of Progress; before that, ho had been president of the Amorican Institute of Architects. In a recent authoritative History of Modern Architects, two brothers, both Armour men. we e listed as leaders in this field; other graduates have done distinctive work in architecture, modeling, color, and design. A holder of three Armour degrees, whose outstanding scholarship in the higher reaches of engineering and pure science is universally recognized, has made important contributions to human knowledge as collaborator with Dr. Michelson at Mount Wilson Observatory. A prominent alumnus was tho first successful producer of malt sugar and responsible for the business success of the company utilizing the product. Another, head of one of the largest metal companies in tho United States, has dovolopod processes for recovery of pure metal from rcrap. An Armour graduate was member of the committee o: three who selected the foreign patents taken over by the Chomical Foundation during the War. The State Highway Engineer, and the Chief Engineer of the Sanitary District are Armour men. as were the late City Engineer, and a former president of tho Board of Local Improvements who performed notable public service tn constructing the Wacker Drive. Alumni, who aro also trustees, have respectively the following services to their crodit: Design and erection of important buildings; directing important engineering construction.- manufacturing executive; patent attorney: invention and commercial promotion of the teletype; direction of research and development for the Peoples Gas: invention and promotion of various devices for protecting electric circuits; head of important industrial engineering firm which has reorganized many governmental agencies throughout the United States and thus greatly improved the public sorvlce. Thoso aro but samplos of Armour achievement. Bringing the story down to dato, basic scientific and engineering training at Armour has nover been on a higher lovol than now. Instruction has been and is being subjected to careful scrutiny to make sure it is serving the ends contemplated. The curriculum has been materially broadened and some of the typical engineering subjects, as for example. Shops, have been reorganized in accordance with the best leadership in Engineering Education. Members of our faculty are occupied with research projects of groat promise. Tho important question now is, where Armour is going and what is its oquipmont for the journey. From the stand- point of teaching and rosoarch, thero can be no question of Armour's fitness to undertake the tasks ahead. Physically, we still require considerable refurbishing in order to accomplish our objectives. Wo are therefore setting ourselves the task of locating in Chicago's front yard, whore we may have the advantage of the best possible sur- roundings and the inspiration of Chicago's unrivaled Lako Front. The task we are undertaking is a largo one. but the foundations upon which we are building are laid securely in Armour's past history and achievement. The super- structure wo propose to build has started with an open minded critical review of our present activities. It is essential that every member of the new structure be designed to carry its load and to endure all the stresses to which it will be subjected in the rigid operating tost incident to its future service to engineering, to education, and to mankind. 15 Cunningham.

Wiles THE FUTURE OF THE ENGINEER Few persons would like to have the task of enumerating the possibilities the future holds for the engineer. Certainly no engineer, no matter how broad his vision, would try to predict what lies ahead for his profession, as a whole. His immediate thought is to see what there is to look forward to in his own particular field. Especially is this true of the engineering graduate. His first question is not, What will my profession be a century from now? or even, What can I accomplish in the next twenty-five years? His question is, and rightly, Where do I start? Having asked the question, most students lose no time in answering it for themselves. Their formal education has already shown them the direction of their interests. The decision as to what lines of the profession they shall follow has already been made. It remains only for them to start utilizing the knowledge they have acquired. And never before in the history of the profession have the possibilities presented to the engineering graduate been so numer- ous and promising. The young engineer is fortunate in that he is entering a field which, far from being crowded, is constantly reaching for capably trained applicants. It is a field to which the younger men and their ideas are welcomed. Particularly is this true at the present time when the rehabilita- tion work, which always follows an economic crisis, is just starting. Unusual opportunities await the graduates of today. Their training in the school has kept pace with the develop- ments in the field, and they enter their work already equipped with a foundation upon which to start building. But in spite of his apparent advantages the young engineer must serve his apprenticeship, and prove in the field the equations he solved in the classroom. It is during this period of development the young engineer may find his education did not give him sufficient specific equipment to meet the conditions with which he is constantly confronted in his work. Here, he has the choice of two alternatives. He can laboriously solve his problems by trial and error with a loss of valuable time for his employer and him- self; or when he gets his bearings he can resume his schooling during his spare time. The alert engineer spends his leisure hours studying. In this way, he can add to his knowl- edge rapidly. Much time is saved and the advances made are proportionately rapid. And only by such methods can an engineer hope to keep abreast or draw ahead of his fellow engineers who, because of their years of experience, are trusted with the more important jobs. Fortunately, the schools of today offer this opportunity for review and research in part-time evening classes so the man on the job can keep in step with what is happening in the field. The future of each engineer lies in his own hands. Decision as to direction and speed of the progress depends upon the individual's alertness and eagerness. And every difficulty over- come will bring a new vision of the future and a promise of achievement. JAMES D. CUNNINGHAM 17 r Hotchkiss. Allison. Heald. Kelly, Palmer Finnogan. Steolo. Schommor.

Schommer Ye Faculty Club is a haven that professors seek between classroom hours, during lunch hour, or after the day's labor. Some seek the solitude of the library to read or meditate. Others seek the billiard table for exercise. Here, balls are struck with hammer blows in hopes that if the cueball rolls long enough the billiard will ultimately be made. It is just the old fight between the pure science men, probability experts, and the adherents of applied sci- ence. Points are recorded by vigorously flipping the buttons along the overhead wire. Misses are indicated with trip-hammer blows that wear out the butts of the cues and peril Mission's aged foundations. The blows committee is seriously considering stringing up half buttons for all near billiards. While watching the game, others exercise their lungs in a declamatory style, peddling their thoughts like mountebanks, on politics, NRA, FERA, or what not. Exultant laughter with staccato interrogations of Why didn't you return my lead? and Don't you ever read Culbertson? are heard from the card room. Thick smoke beclouds this retreat, and brows are knit and faces flushed as the tide of victory ebbs and flows. Ye Faculty Club also serves for meetings and entertainments given by the faculty men or their wives. At the spring banquet, on May 25, Pat Barnes, the noted radio announcer, gave in inimitable manner many impersonations, and Cal Johnson of the ’Daily News' displayed moving pictures on outdoor life. For its annual Christmas Party the Faculty Club presented, at Thorne Hall, Human Adventure, a talking picture of Man's complete history. The Facul- ty Women's Club gave several card parties and dinners thoroughly enjoyed by everyone at- tending. So it is easily understood how Ye Faculty Club performs a valuable service in the life at Armour Tech. ALUMNI ARMOUR ALUMNI ASSOCIATION John J. Schommer, '12 Frederick G. Heuchling, '07... David P.

President, Indianapolis Branch President, New York City Branch The Armour Institute of Technoloqy Alumni, nearly four hundred strong, met last June for the Spring Banquet held at the Medinah Athletic Club. The large turnout was due to the hard work of D. P. Moreton and his committee composed of captains from each class. Stephen M. Lillis, member of the graduation class of 1934. received the alumni award for being the highest point man in scholarship and college activities. Alfred S. Alschuler, the renowned architect, was given the Alumni Service Award key. Mr. James D. Cunningham gave a short talk, and President Willard E. Hotchkiss gave a talk on the elimination of the deficit and explained the drastic measures that had been enacted at Tech. About three hundred trustees, faculty members, and alumni were present at the autumn meeting, held at the Medinah Athletic Club last November. There was considerable dis- cussion about the alumni constitution, and it was left to the Board of Managers to redraft it in accordance with the many changes that were made relative to tenure of office. Throughout the year President John J. Schommer addressed alumni meetings at St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Detroit. At the latter city about forty alumni were present. This attendance was largely due to the efforts of H. W. Mullins. Howard M. Raymond, President Emeritus, was present and also gave a short talk. At Indianapolis, Fred D. Payne was responsible for the alumni gathering and at St. Louis, Bill Berry called together the faithful.

Ahern THE HONOR To those men in the graduating class who have displayed the greatest amount of leadership and in- terest in all school activities while at the Institute, the Armour Tech Athletic Association each year presents the Honor Edition Awards of the Cycle. In the selection of these students a certain definite plan is followed, in the form of a-scoring system, whereby numerical values are assigned the various activities, comprising scholarship, athletics, publica- tions, and membership and leadership in any of the numerous organizations on the campus. Actual desig- nation is taken care of by the Board of Athletic Con- trol the managing board of the Armour Tech Athletic Association. It is only fitting and proper that these men, who are considered to have done more for Armour in advanc- ing school spirit than any others in the Class of 1935, should be known as Honor Edition Award Men. 1935 AWARDS John J.

Samuels Vice-President Harold H. Slavitt Secretary CLASS OF 1935 'Tis time for us, the Seniors, to reminisce. For four years, our lives, our hopes, and our plans have been devoted to trying to attain that goal of all college students—Commencement. May we be granted the privilege to glance back into the past and again remind ourselves of some of the triumphs and failures, the work and play of this, the class of '35. On September 21, 1931, a group of two hundred and seventy Freshmen entered the portals of Armour Institute of Technology to acquire a knowledge of many engineering and cultural subjects. We spent our first few months of this year in becoming acclimated to the newness and strangeness of college life. The earnestness and brotherly interest of the faculty and the absence of strict high school discipline soon gave us confidence in ourselves and instilled in us the desire to attain our goal. The Freshman Handshake aided in acquainting us with the upperclassmen in whose footsteps we were to follow, while the Freshman Smoker and the Frosh-Soph Informal helped to create good fellowship. These two events were both novel to the social calendar of the Institute, being inaugurated by the class of '35. A victory over the Sophomores in the class rush and an interest in athletics, music, and literary work relieved somewhat the monotony of study during this momentous year. Social fraternities claimed the attention and interest of many of us. The habits of correct study aided us materially in successfully completing our Sophomore year. Although the work was much more difficult than that of the Freshman year, we were able to overcome it and in addition take a more active part in outside activities. As Sopho- mores we won the Interclass Basketball Championship while losing the interclass baseball title and the class rush by small margins. The Frosh-Soph dance of this year proved to be as successful as the initial one. Many of this class now earned places on the athletic teams, the staffs of the literary publications, and in the orchestra and glee club, showing that they recognized the value of a well rounded curriculum to a finished engineer.

Treasurer Social Chairman Serqeanl-ai-Arms CLASS OF 1935 The Junior year was perhaps the most fascinating year in our college life, because of the opportunities presented to apply the theory learned in the first two years, as well as giving us more time for increased social activity. This season saw many men honored for interest in out- side activities and good scholarship, the favored few of our company being admitted to mem- bership in the honorary fraternities. This year was brought to a fitting conclusion by Junior Week and the Junior Formal. Victories over the Seniors in a pushball contest and the winning of the Interclass Softball Championship helped to promote team-play and strengthened the bonds of friendship between the various members of the class. The Senior year was spent in further study of engineering work with some concentration on the economic side. In this year many of the men were earning names for themselves by executive leadership on the Armour Tech News, Armour Engineer, the Cycle, the various engineering societies, the musical clubs, social fraternities, and in the various phases of athletics. The Senior Informal and a Dinner Dance, restricted to Seniors, another innovation to the life of Armour men, helped make this last year the finest of our collegiate career. Group rivalry was forgotten, and the class cooperated to make our parting days as pleasant as they are to be memorable to all of us. The coming of Baccalaureate Sermon and Commencement makes us realize that at last we have attained our first objective in engineering, the goal for which we set out as Freshmen. We have come to realize that our four year college education is but a small part of our life and that education has just begun. Our passing leaves many empty positions on the athletic teams and in the many other organizations which will be filled by other men of Armour who are following in our footsteps and are going through the same transition from boy to man. It is with deep regret that we go out into the world leaving behind friendships which will er.dure to the end of time. Photography Jacob M. Bard George W. Wheaton Chairmen Joseph H. DeBoo John F.

What a wonderful feeling it was to come back to Tech last Septem- ber and go up to the fifth floor in Charlie's elevator. Just as certain as many of these new privileges were extended the Class of '36, so were great achievements expected of them. That the Juniors have fulfilled their duty in upholding the worthwhile activities at Armour can read- ily be seen by glancing at the rosters of its athletic teams, the staffs of its publications, and the memberships of its various campus organizations. This class has established records and traditions in several respects. As Freshmen their only claim to distinction was that they were the largest enrolling class ever to enter the Insti- tute, certain of the professors claiming that they were also the noisiest. In their Sophomore year they initiated the green hat rule for the frosh, and set a precedent by ordering their class jackets in this year. They also cooperated with the Seniors and Juniors in standardizing the school jewelry for a period of three years. Though lately they have been separated somewhat because of the different courses they elected to take, when organization is needed they rally round with the same enthusiasm that won the Class Rush for them two years in succession. The Junior election last fall was unique in that, since a majority rather than a plurality was required, all their officers were elected in a run-off. They have adopted the idea of the Sen- 50 Donald J. Neal Frank D. Cotterman Victor J. Kropi Harry R. Dollenmaier I 3 3 5 r| rl rr r 7] rl rl 1 rl CLASS OF 1936 COMMITTEES Social Donald C.

Although the Class of 1937 defeated them in softball last Junior Week, the thirty-sixers nosed out the Sophs in the fall, 3-2, for the Interclass Baseball Championship, after a hotly con- tested victory over the Seniors. The Electricals of '36 won the first Intramural Baseball Tour- nament. In basketball, the third year team walked over the cocky Seniors, 31-15, only to lose to the green Frosh in the finals. The first annual Interclass Swimming Relays were won by the Junior mermen. Juniors are very socially minded, holding two dances a year. Their first affair, held at the Lake Shore Athletic Club, was a huge success and proved well up to the standard of dances given by this class. The second big event put over by their capable social chairman, and the outstanding dance of their four years at Armour, in the minds of every right-thinking Junior, was the Prom. This was the climaxing event of that glorious week of fun and horse- play sponsored by their class. The Junior Chemicals have done something new in establish- ing that exclusive social club, the Chemalumn. It is with regret that this class realizes that their third year is drawing rapidly to a close, as the Seniors will to them their superior position and hopes for success in the coming year.

From the greenest of green to the height of sophistication seems to be in the regular cycle of college life. As Freshmen they were irresponsible, fun-loving youngsters, but over a summer there occurred a complete transition, the boys of yesteryear becoming men, assuming very great importance in their own eyes. Some could even grow mustaches, but none could get away with it. They entered school last September slightly de- pleted in numbers, but infinitely wiser in the ways of the world, and now, by hook or crook, by fair means or foul, they have nearly achieved one-half of their education. The first event of any note was the class election. The politicians worked zealously to elect their candidates, and the year was launched in great style. Following the custom established by their predecessor, jackets were adopted by the Sophomore group. Calculus, physics, and mechanics soon became the job, life, and love (?) of these young men. With the advent of mid-semester Valentines many in their number suddenly decided that perhaps they weren't so good as they thought they were. All this time various members of the class had discovered that much light-hearted recreation could be had by enforcing the green hat rule among the Frosh, and a committee was ap- pointed to further this end. Conflicts started about the second week of school, and due to their superior strategy and experience along this line the Sophs managed to keep the wearers of ♦he green well under thumb. Edwin I.

Thunder Jacket Paul M. Martin Chairman Mark L. Dannis Ernest C. Hoyer Frederick H. Jost Roy J. Magnuson Harold E. Stehman Orest© A. Tomei The class was unique in that it started what is hoped will be a new tradition at Armour, the holding of two Freshman-Sophomore dances. The Engineers' Hop, the first, was presented in tho beautiful Bal Tabarin and was one of the best attended dances of the school year. The second also promised to be a great social success. Although the Thirty-seveners won the Basketball Championship as Freshmen, they didn't get to first base in any of the past year's interclass competition. Notwithstanding this poor record in interclass sports, quite a few Sophomores have demonstrated superior prowess on the varsity teams. Others are ardently participating in different school activities. With the coming of St. Patrick's Day and spring, lessons were neglected to a certain extent for the purpose of heckling the Frosh. The object of this apparently was to wear the Fresh- men down so that they would not be in the pink for the annual Class Rush. Organization was better than in the previous year, and the Sophomores seemed determined to down their proteges. In the big event on the Junior Week card they did put up a far greater fight than in 1934, when they dropped the scrimmage completely to the Class of '36. Though finals are looked forward to with much apprehension, the goal of upperclassman- ship spurs the Sophomores on with greater enthusiasm. The next year will see this class a group of serious young men. each specializing in a particular branch of engineering. f $ f I i % I 'i t « f u t £ t f t ‘f ft f I t f iP t f « t !’« « t t Harwood.

We are the boys on whom Armour dotes. The world will wait with breath abate For the green-capped Frosh of '38. Zickety, zackety, zickety, zow! '38! '38! '38! And how ! ! The Frosh are with us again! That ever present menace to the peaceful concentration of the more staid members of our upper class is well represented in this year's crop of young- sters. On September 24, 1934, 212 hopeful embryo engineers were turned over by their proud parents to the officers of the Institute for higher educations. After words of advice had been offered by President Hotchkiss and Dean Heald at the Freshman Assembly, responsibility for their conduct was immediately assumed by the obliging Sophomores. Having just stepped out of the lowly category themselves, the yearlings began at once to impress upon the minds of these newcomers that they were the lowest type of animals in the universe. The Frosh soon learned never to be without their green top-pieces, being con- stantly menaced by the embarrassing decree, No Green Hat, No Pants. Every dog must have its day, though the Freshmen's started with the night of the Hand- shake. After talks by the coaches and dean and a recital of his famous French-Canadian poems by Professor Amsbary, the Frosh indulged in the traditional doughnuts and cider and witnessed exhibition wrestling matches. All this handshaking was but a prelude to Fraternity Rush Week, starting the following day, when the bewildered thirty-eighters discovered that they were the toast of Michigan Boulevard. Class elections gave the Freshman their introduc- tion to class politics when, after strenuous campaigns, their officers were elected. 62 Henry J. Bodnar Charles H. Priesmeyer John C.

After dropping a baseball game to their oppressors, the Class of 1938 turned the tables by whipping the Sophomores, 30-19, in basketball, following up with an 18-10 victory over the powerful Junior quintet to win the coveted Interclass Basketball Championship. In track they showed even added strength, easily winning the Interclass Meet with 58 points, compared to 9 for their erstwhile rivals. In interclass swimming and in the tennis, golf, wres- tling, and boxing tournaments, the plucky Frosh further proved to all that they have real ma- terial for Armour's athletic teams. Immediately after the Thanksgiving holidays the Freshmen received their first Valentines. Then followed a period of intense application, broken only by the Christmas vacation, after which the nearness of finals necessitated the burning of many gallons of midnight oil. On Washington's Birthday the Freshmen joined with the Sophomores in appropriately pre- senting the Engineer's Hop, a name which probably establishes a tradition. After this twenty-four hour truce lost time was made up in the many battles which raged on slightest provocation until Junior Week. Then, even studies were neglected to devote more time to fighting. Finally, the two factions were allowed to go at it tooth-and-nail to a bloody finish to settle forever their differences. Ansol, Arends. Kwiecinski. Ventrella. Labes. Modersohn. Palka. Bodnar. Faust.

So whatever you wish to do, do it, and keep everlastingly at it. Don't let a defeat conquer you. Athletically speaking, a defeat is only a hurdle. If it takes you for a fall, get up. fight on, and finish. Inculcate courage, per- severance, and fight. With these as your characteristics you will never stay defeated. Make friends, not only of your own age, but older and younger ones. Cultivate those that will polish off your rough edges and that will aid you in inspiration and ambition. Learn to be courteous and well-mannered, and develop a sense of sportsmanship so you will wear well with persons you meet. Strive to do things that count in whatever commission is entrusted to you. Don't think you can win by gab. The race is won by those that run and not by the cheer leaders. Don't be a crab, but be cheerful, and develop the ability to cooperate. The fellow who makes a sac- rifice hit in the ball game serves as well as the home run hitter. Be ready to serve at all times. Be careful of your morals, and don't overdo those things that will undermine your health. Guard your health as your most sacred treasure. Develop it, and keep it by exercise and through athletic play. You need it for energy, inspiration, and ambition. -—John J. Schommer. a 7 THE ARMOUR TECH OFFICERS John J. Ahern............................President Donald I. Neal...............................First Vice-President Eugene A. Heike.............................Second Vice-President Harry R.

McNamara...............Medical Adviser John J. Schommer..............Director of Athletics William C. Krafft....Instructor in Physical Training Ahem Neal Hoiko Dollenmaier O’Brien McNamara Realizing the need of a more unified Armour spirit, the Class of 1923, as Juniors, gave Harold W. Munday the authority to take whatever steps were necessary to organize this spirit. His original committee of Juniors was expanded to include representatives from each of the other classes, and a constitution was drawn up. The body was to be known as the Armour Tech Athletic Association and its membership limited to students, alumni, and faculty. Organization of the Association is still essentially the same. A First Vice-President and a Secretary, juniors, and a Second Vice-President, a sophomore, are elected annually by the entire Association. At the same time the outgoing First Vice-President automatically becomes President. The Freshman Representative is elected at a freshman election, while the treasurer is the Institute Treasurer. These officers, along with the President and Dean, the Director of Physical Education, and two faculty representatives, comprise the Board of Athletic Control, in which body the management of the Armour Tech Athletic Association is entrusted. By means of this dual control a harmonious enforcing and regulation of student affairs is effected. The primary purpose of the Association is to act as a connecting link between the various branches of student enterprise and thus coordinate the efforts of the student body in carrying on and developing a unified Armour spirit, so that the greatest number of students might receive benefits. It now promotes and finances all school athletics, publications, musical organizations, and class activities. The cost of this gigantic program is borne by means of a student activity fee paid by each student at the beginning of each semester. Payment of this fee entitles the student to mem- bership in the A. T. A. A., the right to vote for its officers, and participation in all activities. He regularly receives the annual, the quarterly magazine, and the weekly newspaper. His class dues also are paid out of this fee. All athletics expenses, coaching, medical and traveling expenses, uniforms, and awards are provided for in the funds of the Association. Armour is a member of the Northern Illinois Intercollegiate Conference, and competition is scheduled regularly by baseball, basketball, «8 i a as r| rl r r r r ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION BOARD OF ATHLETIC CONTROL OFFICERS Philip C.

This year the Board passed the long needed Freshman ruling. All candidates for athletic sports must pass physical examinations and be up in all their studies. Letters and sweater awards are given team members for earnest effort, proficiency, ability, and faithful training. Graduating Major A men receive A blankets. This year men who have received a major award prior to their senior year will, if awarded another letter, be given the choice of a heavy sweater or a suede jacket. An Award Assembly for winter sports was innovated in April. A banquet is given each year in honor of the athletes. Interest is further stimulated in athletic contests by fostering mass meetings and assemblies at appropriate intervals and by providing cheer leaders and developing cheers. Greater pub- licity of the athletic teams in the Chicago newspapers is secured by the Publicity Committee. Intramural athletics are organized by the A. T. A. A. Interclass and interfraternity athletics and school tournaments promote the participation in sports of a larger number of students and are a means of discovering material for varsity teams. Cooperating with the Interfraternity Council, an interfraternity athletics manager supervises fraternity contests, and to this same end a manager of interclass athletics is selected. An innovation this year was the Interfra- ternity Swimming Meet, coupled with the Interclass Relays in this sport. These contests were huge successes and will become annual events. Junior Week and other class affairs are made possible by the Association funds. The Glee Club and Orchestra are supported by the A. T. A. A., and the semiannual concerts and other public appearances are fostered. Though greatly aided by the Student Publications Advisory Committee, supervision of the 'Cycle the 'Armour Engineer,' and the 'Armour Tech News' rests with the Board of Athletic Control. The Association recognizes service and outstanding ability by awarding Honor 'Cycles' to the leeach year. The Student Loan Fund, establish ading men in the senior class at the end ofed out of the surplus funds of the Association last year, is successfully operating, ensuring the Fund a circulating existence. !) f f f % t if 11 1 s i t t v V w Armsbury.

Schmidt Lawrence W. Davidson Robert E. Esbensen Robert Hella Hermon J. Sumner Honor A, founded in the spring of 1914, was intended to be the governing board of athletics at Armour. With the birth of the Armour Tech Athletic Association in 1922, this original duty of Honor A was taken over by the newer body. Since that time Honor A” has existed as an honorary lettermen's society devoted to the promotion of Armour’s suc- cess in athletics. The results have been very gratifying, for Tech's teams have reached the point where the Big Ten schools are complaining that our victories are due to the fact that we are using freshmen. Needless to say, if our teams were not successful, other schools would never question our eligibility rules. This past year has seen many changes at the Institute. Likewise there have been changes in the customs and organization of Honor A. The tradition of honoring the out- standing leaders in each sport was continued, but the method pursued was different. Work- ing in conjunction with the Athletic Association, an Award Assembly was planned. At this assembly, the men so honored by Honor A were presented with their gold A's, and at the same time the basketball, swimming, and wrestling awards were made before the student body. In line with its purpose of promoting athletics, members of Honor A” made pep talks before classes in advance of important basketball games. It was felt that by bringing athletics forcibly to the student's mind the turnout for the various teams would be increased. Though this has been but a humble beginning, the organization feels that it is on the road to increased service and greater usefulness to our alma mater. 70 BASEBALL Captain Omiecinski Shortstop Managor Jacobson MAJOR A AWARDS Louis W.

With ten lettermen returning last spring and plenty of reserve material turn- ing out, the mentor had every reason to expect a winning combination for his tenth season at Armour, and he was not disappointed. Besides getting credit for seven wins out of eight chances as a pitcher, Lefty Mayer excelled as a hitter with a .359 batting average, though another good pitcher, Morelli, had the high .381. Captain Omiecinski, a very steady playing shortstop, turned in a .329 average, while his cousin, Captain- elect Tad, batted .307. Victor Omiecinski (Capt.) Emil Adamec Joseph F. Bartusek Edward J.

Another high light of the game was the stellar pitching performance of Lefty Mayer, star hurler of the Techawks. The Tech nine lost to Chicago, 9-2, in the return game played April 23 at Ogden Field. The loss was due to numerous errors committed by the Armour men. Tad Omiecinski's homer over the right field fence, and his cousin Captain Vic's double netted Tech's two tallies. Lukas Catcher Mayer Pitcher NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR For the second time within a week the Engineers defeated a highly rated Big Ten team, the Northwestern Wildcats, in a game at Ogder. Field on April 16. Northwestern managed to get two runs in the first inning, but after that Mayer was complete master of the situation. Armour grabbed the lead in the fifth and finally won 5-3. The next day Armour traveled out to the Evanston campus only to sufler a 14-7 trimming at the hands of the Wildcats. Morelli pitched fine ball until the fourth when wildness and errors allowed nine runt ullis Six of Armour's runs were garnered in the eighth. Infield Rood Centor Field 7.'

The game, played on Ogden Field, was featured by Captain Omiecinski's hot liner over third base in the tenth inning, driving Ademec in for the winning run. Garnering three tallies in the third. Armour led 6-4 starting the eighth when a two-bagger tied the score. ''Lefty Mayer then relieved Baumel to check the Elmhurst batters and get credit for the victory. On Circus Day the Techawks journeyed to Elmhurst and whipped the College nine 7-4. Conspicuously scoring three runs in the first inning, the Armourites took it easy until Elm- hurst gained the lead in the fifth. Mayer, coming in from center field, replaced the injured Hayes, and Bartusek, Biegler, and the Omiecinski cousins netted four more runs. WHEATON COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR On April 28 the Techawks traveled west to Wheaton to overwhelm the Crusaders, 27-3, in the second league game. Everyone had his day at bat. Steve Lillis leading the hitters with four singles. Three-baggers were garnered by Adamec, Bartusek, Christoph, Lauchiskis, and Shew- chuk during the slug-fest. Mayer struck out ten of the Wheaton batsmen. In the second game with the College, played on Ogden Field on May 2, the Tech nine beat out a defeat with eleven runs in the eighth and ninth to win 16-8. The Ministers managed to bang out six hits against Baumel in the first two innings but only three more during the rest of the game, Morelli relieving Ed in the sixth. Adamec and Lauchiskis each accounted for three runs and three hits, the latter knocking out a homer and a triple. 74 Omiocinski First Base Biegler Socond Base Adamec Right Fiold i a 3 s r r r r I r r NON-LEAGUE GAMES April 10—Armour 7.

In the first encounter, played at Naperville, the Engineers led all the way to the eighth, when a line double to left center by the Red Demon second baseman cost the visitors two runs fcr a 4-3 defeat. The game was a pitchers' battle, Mayer yielding but seven hits and fanning seven and Wendlandt striking out thirteen. The Krafftmen were way off their usual form in the second game with the Napervillians. Ten errors for Armour partically gave the Osden Field Junior Week contest to the opponents. The Techawks managed to tie the score in the fourth when Tad Omiecinski doubled over the right field fence, scoring on an overthrow as Lauchiskis rounded first, and Bartusek's drive to left center brought A1 home. The 8-4 victory cinched the championship for North Central. LAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR Playing in a severe dust storm at the Northshore school on May 9, Armour overwhelmed Lake Forest 6-1. Mayer, pitching one of his finest games, allowed only two hits and rendered sixteen strike-outs in all. Nothing happened until the seventh when Lauchiskis stretched a triple into a homer to bring in Olson, and a three-bagger gave Lake Forest one run. In the season's concluding game and their last at Armour for six graduating regulars, the Techawks defeated Lake Forest 7-5 on May 22, to take undisputed second place in the league. Lefty outwitted Drakeman to achieve his seventh victory in eight starts. Biegler's double play after a marvelous catch stopped the visitors at 5-2. The Armourites then did the impos- sible by scoring five runs in the eighth with hits by Tad, Adamec, Bartusek, and Mayer. Lauchiskis Third Baso Morelli Pitcher Phillips Catchor CHICAGO NORMAL COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR hi a practice game on April 12 played on Ogden Field, the Tech nine tied the Chicago Nor- mal team 4-4, the game being called in the seventh on account of darkness. It was surprising how well both teams played when so handicapped by the extreme cold. Hayes, Baumel, and Morelli took turns on the mound for Tech, to strike out thirteen of the teachers. Three singles by Lauchiskis accounted for two Armour runs and a double by Adamec for another. Tad Omiecinski with two singles and Hayes with one rapped out Armour's only other hits. GEORGE WILLIAMS COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Meeting George Williams on Thursday, April 26, at Ogden Field, the Techawks were vic- torious by a score of 8 to 1. Ed Baumel, the veteran pitcher, put himself in the same class as the famous Lon Warneke by delivering a one-hit game. His tactics completely baffled the opposing batsmen. Mike'' Shewchuk showed up well in his new fielding position besides poking a two bagger over the right field fence. Emil Adamec and Mickey Lukas also gained two-base hits, and George Reed slugged out a triple during the course of the game. MICHIGAN STATE NORMAL COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR On May 3 the Tech nine played a very loose ball game at Ogden Field to give a 12-9 vic- tory to a Michigan State Normal team. Eight fielding blunders in the early sessions enabled the visitors to jump to a 11-2 lead, in spite of the hard work of pitchers Hayes and Morelli. The Krafftmen then settled down, and though they outhit the Hurons twelve to eight, recovery was not quite fast enough. The sluggers took revenge against the Ypsilanti batsmen on May 11 with an 8-6 win. The Hurons had the advantage of playing on their own ball field but failed to make much use of the situation. Morelli pitched and received credit for the victory against the strong Normal nine. HILLSDALE COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Armour completed its short sojourn to Michigan with a 6-1 triumph over Hillsdale College at Hillsdale on May 12. Fireball Jack Hayes pitched a superlative game allowing only six scattered hits and striking out nine Hillsdale batters. He also was the batting hero of the game with two doubles, which drove in four runs. Adamec contributed to the attack with a three-bagger which accounted for two more runs. Lefty Mayer, playing in the outfield, did some fine fielding to help stave off possible Hillsdale rallies.

Doane, Jr. William P. O'Brien MANAGER AWARD John F. Humiston Coach Krafft Fifty men answered Coach Krafft's call on November 1 for the initial practice session of the 1934-35 edition of the Armour Tech basketball team. Prospects looked very bright due to the return of six lettermen and the splendid showing of some of the freshmen in the interclass games. Two weeks were spent in the gymnasium absorbing fundamentals. Later the squad was cut to about twenty as it moved to the 108th Engineer's Armory, which had been secured for the school as the home floor. Here practice was carried on every night until the opening of the season. From December 6 then to February 22 the Armour basketball team netted the most success- ful season which a Techawk quintet has had in the last eleven years. Winning all but five of their sixteen games stands as a precedent for future teams. Much credit is due Coach Krafft and Captain Lauchiskis for their constant work in producing such a team and Manager Humiston for arranging a trying schedule. Gene Heike. with a grand total of 182 points in sixteen games amassed a scoring record which will probably stand for years to come. By graduation the team loses its captain, A1 Lauchiskis, Christoph, Levy, and Doane. Though these men will be missed, plenty of reserve is left to prophesy another banner season next winter. 78 Krafft, Lovy. Brown. O’Brien, Doan©.

The Techawks, with a slight advan- tage in height and a greater advantage in floor play, held the lead throughout the game. Loose officiating served to make a good game out of it. Armour completely dominated action in the first half, leading at the end 21-13. Bright spots were the continued excellent guarding of Warner and Dollenmaier and control of the tipoff. At the start of the second half, Chicago rallied to bring the score to 22-20, but the Techawks easily checked the onslaught to win the game. Bob Mere, with nine tallies, was high-point Armour scorer. NORTH CENTRAL COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR A tradition of seven years was perpetuated when Armour's best basketball team again fell victims to North Central College. The Red Demons maintained the jinx over all Techawk activities by winning 28-22 on the Armory floor. The Black and Yellow hoopmen just seemed to miss all sorts of setup shots so that though they led at the end of the first half 11-8, upon returning to the floor they were greeted by such a flurry of baskets that the lead was soon overcome to give North Central one which they never did relinquish. The game was featur- ed by the close guarding of both teams. With a comfortable margin North Central played a stalling game until the final gun. 1934-35 BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Date Opponent Armour Place December 6 South Side Junior 26 38 Armour December 11 George Williams 27 46 Armour December 15 Chicago 27 34 Chicago December 18 Wheaton 30 32 Armour December 20 Lake Forest 36 31 Lake Forest January 9 Lake Forest 33 41 Armour January 14 Michigan State Normal. 25 33 Armour January 22 North Central 28 22 Armour January 25 Wayne 21 43 Detroit January 26 Michigan State Normal. 36 38 Ypsilanti February 8 DePauw 31 37 Armour February 12 Wayne 32 33 Armour February 14 Wheaton 34 36 Wheaton February 18 DePauw 37 24 Greencastle February 19 Indiana State Teachers. 55 37 Terre Haute February 22 Indiana State Teachers. 48 43 Armour Managor Humiston Totals. . . . 526 568 70 rr r r Warner A shot gets through at Wheaton Dolienmaier Guard Guard WHEATON COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Wheaton College came to Armour on December 18 and almost broke its winning streak, the home team finally emerging victorious. 32-30. With the score tied at the end of the regulation period, Lauchiskis' short shot and a good defensive game in an overtime won the conflict. The game was slow, and it was only due to the size of the playing floor that the advantage of better condition became evident in the closing minutes. On February 14 the Techmen journeyed out to Wheaton, there to overcome a four-year hoo- doo by beating the Crusaders, 36-34. Playing a zone defense Wheaton called some really new Armour plays into use. Many fouls on Wheaton, successfully cashed in, made possible the mid-game 18-15 score. Then Wheaton ran up a ten-point lead to arouse the Techawk ire so that with five minutes to go Armour was leading 36-29. Though the Ministers tried hard to regain their advantage, they dropped only two out of the great number of closing volleys. The star of the day was Rob Merz, who played his season's best game. SOUTH SIDE JUNIOR COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Armour's first scheduled game was easily taken from South Side Junior College, 38-26, on December 6 at the Armory arena. The first half was not a runaway, however, since the score was increased only during the second period. Gene Heike led the team with thirteen points. The South Siders surprised Armour by not playing a man-to-man defense, but the superior height and basketball ability of the Techawks soon became the deciding factor. Having a good fast break, the Junior College did not score more often only because of the excellent guarding of Warner and Dolienmaier. MICHIGAN STATE NORMAL COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Michigan State Normal was vanquished at Armour's home court, 33-25, on January 14. Heike was hot the first half and made twelve counters to put Armour in front at the intermission, in the second period the Techmen were taxed to the utmost to keep this advantage. With about three minutes to go Armour was leading by only two points when Pop Warner dropped in two baskets and a free throw to sew up” the game. On their annual Michigan trip the Techawks stopped off at Ypsilanti on January 26 just long enough to eke out a 38-36 victory over the Hurons. Michigan State Normal led at the half, 18-17, but Heike's snapping out of a traveler's slump with five second period ringers saved the battle, in spite of a spirited home rally. The real star of the game was Captain Lauchiskis, who garnered fifteen points with five baskets and five free throws. During the last part of the game, O'Connell, Doane, and Levy got in to show the Hurons what a good reserve can do. SO Mora Lauchiskis takos tho ball from Christoph Conter Lake Forest Forward LAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR On December 20 Armour played Lake Forest University at the suburban school's floor and suffered its first loss of the season, 36-31. The score, however, does not indicate the trend of the game. The Tech hoopers, due to the excellent follow-up work of center and forwards, amassed a lead at the end of the half of 21-15, a margin maintained until within five minutes to go. Then Lake Forest dropped in five successive shots to take the lead away and remain in front until the final gun. After the Christmas vacation and some really concentrated practice. Armour avenged its previous defeat by the Lake Forest team, winning at the Armory on January 9 by a score of 41-33. Captain A1 Lauchiskis was the scoring star of the afternoon with sixteen points. Pop Warner was assigned the difficult task of guarding Emery, flashy little Lake Forest star, who had made sixteen counters in the first game. He held Emery to one basket in the second en- counter and played a great defensive game. GEORGE WILLIAMS COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR George Williams was the guest of the Armour Tech five on December 11 and was treated rather roughly, being sent home with a 46-27 defeat. The superiority of the Techawks was noticed in the first half, the score being at that juncture, 25-10. A rally by an entire new Y team proved fruitless, and, after a beautiful three-pass play down the full length of the floor, Christoph slammed in the final basket to end the game and make his day's total of thirteen points, just behind the fourteen for Heike. Captain Lauchiskis made his debut in this game after suffering from a leg injury. WAYNE UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR At Detroit on January 25. Armour easily defeated Wayne University, 43-21. This game was featured by the sinking of five goal shots by Harry Dollenmaier, who heretofore had scored but little. The team was really hot for the first time in the season. Control of the tipoff by Mere was a big factor in the game, at one time one of his tosses from the ring to Lauchiskis resulting in a goal before the Wayne men had left their starting positions. On February 12, Wayne traveled to Chicago for their return game, and Armour just managed to nose out the revived Wayne quintet. 33-32. The Techawks, playing good ball the first few minutes, ran up an eight point lead. Then becoming overconfident, they relaxed their play until with three minutes to go Wayne led 32-30. Then Lauchiskis tied it up with a short basket, and Heike dropped in a free throw to give himself a grand day's total of eighteen tallies, his high for .he season. 81 Doan©, guard Heiko sinks on© at Chicago Levy, guard O'Brion, forward A tip-off in the Lake Forest tilt O'Connell, guard DEPAUW UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR The first game against DePauw was played February 8 at the 108th Engineers Armory. De- Pauw made up a handicap in stature with fight and ability. The entire first half was a see- saw battle terminating in Armour's two-point lead. About midway through the second period the Tech cagers began to pile up a margin upon the Tigers to win 37-31. Eighteen counters were again recorded by the indomitable Heike. On February 18. Armour played the return game, at Greencastle, Indiana. DePauw was really hot on their shots, revenging themselves for their previous defeat to the tune of 37-24. Kinnally of DePauw was the star of the game, dropping three consecutive forty-foot shots. INDIANA STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Armour encountered the Indiana State Teachers five at Terre Haute. Indiana, on February 19. Still smarting from their defeat by DePauw the night before, they played a most lacka- daisical game. The State regulars played the first half, building up a lead of 35-17, and then a substitute team also proved impassive to end the encounter, Indiana State 55, Armour 37. The following Friday, February 22, the Teachers played a return game at Armour, which turned out to be the winter's classic. The Tech basketeers outplayed the taller Indiana quintet throughout the struggle only to find themselves on the bottom side of a 48-43 score at the end of the game. Captain Lauchiskis bowed out in a blaze of glory in his final appearance for Armour as did the other Seniors, Christoph, Levy, and Doane. 82 TRACK OUTDOOR TRACK SEASON OF 1934 Alonzo A. Stagg.

Loyola, and North Central, it was hoped that the Techawk track squad could redeem itself in the 1934 outdoor season. Though it did do better, it still only accounted for two wins out of six scheduled meets. In spite of this poor team record, there were several very capable men. Captain Nelson concluded four years of competition in which he amassed 528.8 points in 43 meets. Frateschi and Cordes in their respective shot put and javelin specialties never failed to get a first during the whole outdoor season. Johnny Roberts also was a consistent and versatile point-gainer. ELMHURST COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR A victory over Elmhurst, 71-36, on April 7, at Stagg Field, opened Armour's outdoor track season. Roberts took the spotlight by breaking the Techawk 100-yard high hurdle record in 14 flat. Neal ran the 440 in 52.4, and Nelson won the 100-yard lows in 11.3. In the high jump, pole vault, and shot put, Armour took all points, firsts going to Bejcek, Concolino, and Fra- teschi, with a heave of 43 feet 5 Vi inches. The College trackmen turned the tables on May 12 by taking the return engagement at Elm- hurst, 68 1 3-59 2 3. Kirkpatrick took the 440-yard dash, and Nelson leaped the 220-low hurdles in 26.1. Cordes won the javelin, and Hevrdejs, the pole vault, to close the season. Hoyer. Roborts. Hanson, Manly. Jones. Williams. Floig Slagg. Kulpak. Callon. Nelson. Fleissner, Neal.

Cordes then broke the Armour javelin record with a toss of 166 feet. GEORGE WILLIAMS COLLEGE VS. ARMOUR In the meet against George Williams College April 28 at Ogden Field, the Techawks amassed the sea- son's largest score, 97 points, against 18 for the Y‘ men. Firsts were taken by Concolino in the pole vault, Bejcek in the high and broad jumps, Nelson in the high hurdles, Roberts in the lows, Cordes in the javelin, Frateschi in the shot put, and Callen in the 2-mile. BRADLEY POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE A badly crippled team was beaten decisively on May 5 at Peoria by the Bradley Tech athletes, 76V - 49l «. Nelson took firsts for Armour in the 440 and low hurdles, and Fleissner and Hanson won seconds in the half-mile and mile events, respectively. Con- colino then proceeded to break Armour's pole vault record with a leap of 11 feet 6 inches. Frateschi, as usual, took his specialty, and Cordes nearly equaled his record to win the javelin throw. LOYOLA UNIVERSITY Loyola's trackmen walked over the Armour cinder- men, 81 1 3-44 2 3, on May 9 at Ogden Field. Cap- tain Nelson, high-point man of the meet, showed fine form by winning the high jump at 5 feet 8 inches and crossing the finish line first in the 440. Cordes won the javelin event and Frateschi, the shot put, as Kulpak leaped 20 feet 6V2 inches for the broad jump. A strong gale hindered the runners.

Concolino and Bristol netted second and third in the pole vault, and Thornton second in the high jump. Faust barely lost a hard mile, and Dunbar got a second in the 60-yard dash. ELMHURST COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Armour's cindermen ran up a 55‘ 2-38l 2 score over an Elmhurst team on March 12 at the U. of C. fieldhouse. Captain Roberts starred for Tech with 13 points, winning both hurdles events, clocking the 70-yard lows in :08.4. Neal equalled the Armour record of :07.5 when he won the 70-yard dash. Nelson emerged victorious in the mile and half-mile races, and the Neuert-Harrold-Rigoni-Dunbar combination took the relay. BUTLER RELAYS Armour entered an impressive team in the Butler Relays at Indianapolis on March 23, and because of its showing in the Armour games the week before, it was expected to do equally well in the college division of the Indiana classic. However, all that was won was a fifth in the medley. Rigoni ran the 440, Neal the 880, Nelson the 3 4-mile, and Faust the 1-mile. S7 Carroll Roson Dunbar Rigoni Kirkpatrick Thornton Flelg Conoolino Cordes Hevrdejs r I ARMOUR TECH RELAYS Saturday evening, March 16, 1935, marked the ate of the largest track meet in Armour's history, the seventh annual Armour Relays. Thirty-four Middle-West schools entered four hundred athletes in the big games at the U. of C. fieldhouse as a record crowd of 2,500 looked on. Three records were smashed during the meet, oddly enough by the schools that set them. The pole vault mark was broken by Seeley of Illinois, with a vault of 13 feet 5' a inches. In the shot put Davis of Hillsdale smashed his own meet record by a toss of 48 feet 4 inches. Pittsburgh broke the third marker by bettering its own one-mile relay time of 3:22.7 by .8 second. Knappenberger of Kansas State won both the university hurdle events, equaling the :07.6, 70-yard highs mark. Herman. Carleton's star, came close to new records in winning the 70-yard college low hurdles and the university dash events. The greatest thrill of the evening for the Armour rooters came when Tech's sprint medley team of Neal, Dunbar, Neuert, and Nelson took a first in the college division. George Nelson, running the 880 as anchor man, took up the baton in fourth position and passed all those ahead of him for the first place. He then teamed with Neal. Rigoni, and Friede to take a third in the one-mile college relay. A fifth in the two- mile event was garnered for Armour by the Linde- man-Fleig-Faust-Ruppert combine. The squads of Pittsburgh and Kansas State were outstanding in the university division, and those of Butler and Carleton excelled in the college class, with Armour unofficially rated sixth. 88 Herman of Carleton sweeps the field in the 70-yard low hurdles SWIMMING SWIMMING SEASON OF 1934-35 E.

Ahern With five men back from last year's squad Coach McGillivray's swimming team was expect- ed to turn in a good season record. Such, however, was not the case, as evidenced by but two victories out of nine meets. The relay teams did quite well, each getting five firsts, the main difficulties seeming to be with the 40- and 220-yard free style and diving events and a great deal of sickness. Captain Ahern made a creditable and versatile showing as high-point man, with Moore and Bernstein second and third. Captain-elect Knaus, an excellent breast- stroke swimmer, can be counted on to do his best with the not-so-good 1936 prospects. SOUTH SIDE JUNIOR COLLEGE VERSUS ARMOUR Armour Tech's 1935 swimming season opened on January 9 with a victory over South Side Junior College at Bartlett Pool. The Moore-Kettlestrings-Tallafuss-Ahern combine made the season's best relay time, 1:22.9, to start the ball rolling. The Engineers took other firsts in the 100-yard breaststroke, 100-yard backstroke, 100-yard free style, and 180-yard medley to decide the meet in Armour's favor, 40-35. On February 27 the South Siders again competed against Armour coincidently retaliating with a 40-35 score, at the South Side pool. The Techawks got off to a good start by winning the relay, while Knaus and Stehman carried first honors in the breaststroke. Then everything went against Armour until the medley team clocked their event in the nice time of 1:55 to conclude the meet. 90 Tallafuss. Ruekberq. Schroibor. Duorrstoin. Stehman. Clarice. McGrath.

Moore took the 40-yard free style, while Bernstein splashed off the backstroke in 1:20.9. Ahern then won the 100-yard crawl, and a medley victory cinched the meet. March 5 brought Wright a 49-26 victory over the Tech tankmen at the north side college. Bernstein. Stehman, and Moore won the 180-yard medley to take Armour's only first place. TRIANGULAR MEET On February 16 the Tech splashers visited Loyola University to compete in a triangle meet, which Loyola won with 46 points, Milwaukee State Teachers College getting 29, and Armour trailing with 20. Moore, Ruekberg, Tallafuss, and Ahern teamed for a second in the relay. Knaus in the breaststroke and medley helped Armour gain its two other second places. DEPAUW UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR Greencastle, Indiana, was the scene of the swimmers' 43-39 defeat on March 1 by DePauw University. Armour v ould probably have won the close meet but for Bernstein's unfortunate dis- qualification in the backstroke. In spite of inexperience in long events, the natators won the 400-yard relay, 200-yard breaststroke, and 300-yard medley. With no DePauw entry Ahern and Lyford easily won the diving feature. 01 Knaus Bernstein Moore Ruekberg r r r Stohman in tho breast stroke at Milwaukoo Individual Standings Ahern ............59 Moore................44 Vz Bernstein ........38 Knaus ............35 Ruekberg .........23 Vi Duerrstein........17 Tallafuss ........ISVz Stehman...........12 Lyford............ 6 Kettlestrings..... 3 McDonald...........3 McGrath.......... 1 Schreiber........ 1 QUADRANGULAR MEET The Sea Dogs traveled to Milwaukee on March 9 for a fourth place in a quadrangle meet, the final score standing Milwaukee State Teachers College 42, Wright Junior College 28, South Side Junior College I6V2, and Armour 11V2. Bernstein starred for Armour as he took a second in the backstroke and teamed with Knaus and Moore for second honors in the medley. Armour's relay combination got a third place. LOYOLA UNIVERSITY VERSUS ARMOUR The Techawks were sadly lacking points in a 52-21 defeat at Loyola on March 11. The only first for the Tech splashers was due to Turnover Bernstein's backstroke victory. Three second places went to the Engineers in the 100-yard free style, fancy diving, and 150-yard medley events, the medley combination being Bernstein, Stehman, and Duerrstein. IRVING PARK Y.M.C.A. VERSUS ARMOUR March 12 found the Tech aquatic stars in Bartlett Pool competing against the Irving Park Y.M.C.A. Ahern, Ruekberg. Moore, and Tallafuss started the evening auspiciously by win- ning the relay. Moore then obtained the only other first for Armour by swimming the 100-yard free style in 1:02.6. The meet closed with Armour on the bottom of a 49-26 score to conclude a very unsuccessful season for the Armour tankers. 92 Duerrstein Tallafuss Stohman Lyford MINOR SPORTS GOLF r r n r r Coach Leigh Captain Davidson Managor Pllum SEASON OF 1934 Charles W.

Pflum With only two lettermen and two reserves back from the unsuccessful 1933 squad, prospects did not look any too good for the 1934 season. However, predictions are not always sustained, and Coach Leigh's able team, captained by Larry Davidson, went through the stiff schedule prepared by Manager Pflum with six wins and only two losses, and these to Big Ten schools. The cold, grey dawn of Saturday morning, April 14, marked the opening of the Tech golf season, the Techawks falling victims to a strong alumni team composed of former golf captains. The first of the scheduled meets was with Chicago Normal College April 21 on the home course. The teachers fell easy prey to the Engineers, the game ending in a 12-0 win. The following Tuesday the dubs” packed up their war clubs and traveled to the Kildeer Country Club, the home course of Northwestern University's squad, here to lose by a final count of 27-3. Six men played for each team and the five lowest of each squad matched scores. Saturday, April 28, found the golfers busily engaged in digging turf at Southmoor in com- petition against the Loyola University squad. The Tech five, composed of Davidson, Ahem, Richards, Wattley, and Shanahan, manged to run up points to just beat out the opponents by one point. This close match was one of the best that was played throughout the season. ■ Mh-Ka— 04 Wattley, Richards.

The games were played at the heme course on May 1, and, incidently, this meet, which was a 15-3 defeat for the Engineers, was Tech's second and last loss on the schedule. Greencastle, Indiana, was Armour's next stop, the Tech golfers competing against DePauw University on May 5. Though each team was two down at the end of the nine, Larry Davidson and Shanahan paired together as did Ahern and Wattley to win, in a downpour, both the doubles matches. Shanahan, with a 79, and Ahern then won their singles matches to cinch a 10-8 victory. On the following Saturday the DePauw aggregation competed against Armour at South- moor, coincidently again losing by a 10-8 score. Wattley teamed with Ahem to take three points in the doubles and won his singles engagement. The golf team of Bradley Polytechnic Inst.tute fell before the onslaught of the Armour slicers on May 18, 6V2SV2. Captain Larry Davidson took honors on the Peoria course by whipping Meyers, Little Nineteen champion. A 10-2 victory over Illinois Wesleyan University at Bloomington, on May 26, closed a highly successful 1934 season for the Techawk golfers. 95 Shanahan Richards Ahern Wattley Captain Streb Manager Colburn TENNIS SEASON OF 1935 William W.

Colburn, Jr. With five members of the 1933 squad returning to bolster their efforts, the tennis team faced prospects of a very successful season. Initial practices were held for the first time indoors. Although Manager Colburn had arranged a tough schedule, various factors, meteorological and otherwise, dwindled it down to seven meets, of which Armour won four and dropped three. Owing to inclement weather the racket wielders had practiced but little outside when on April 27 they opened their season with the University of Notre Dame. On that cold day the Techawks journeyed to South Bend only to lose to the Ramblers 6-3. The Techmen split the six singles matches, but the doubles engagements went to the Notre Dame tennis stars.

The netmen engaged the University of Chicago on May 2 and Northwest- ern University the next day in a series of practice matches. George Williams College was the next victim, the Tech tennis team taking the meet on May 7 at the Armour courts 5-2. After losing his first set 6-3, Lammers retaliated with two like victories to win his singles match. Esbensen and McDonough won close engagements, and the Techawks took both doubles as the teams of Streb and Armsbury, and Esbensen and Lam- mers came out on top. Though the wind and ground conditions were very unfavorable. Armour emerged victorious after losing three of five singles events by easy wins in two doubles matches, to defeat De- Pauw University in a meet on May 12 at the home courts. Bob Esbensen surprised the gallery by taking six games in a row to win his first set after trailing 5-1. On the Saturday of Junior Week Wheaton visited Armour and left with a 4-2 conquest. Cieselwicz easily won the only singles victory 6-1 and 6-1. The absence on May 21 of Streb and Lammers gave the Y men a 5-2 victory when the Tech netmen visited the George Williams courts. Esbensen playing a steady brand of tennis, won his match easily and, paired with McDonough, accounted for Armour's other win. Nevertheless, in true Armour spirit, the Armourites returned to form and displayed an in- spired game of tennis in overcoming Wheaton on May 26 by a 5-1 count at the suburban courts, to close a fairly successful season. 1934 TENNIS SCHEDULE Date Opponent Armour April 27 Notre Dame.. 6 3 April 30 Loyola .. 1 6 May 7 Geo.

Schmidt applied a body stretch for a 1:30 fall, and Sumner did the exceptional with two pins in the two three-minute periods. The Tech grapplers visited Naperville on January 25 only to lose to North Central College by a count of 21-13. After losses in the lighter divisions, Dunne and Schmidt pinned their Majordk, McDaniel.

Wheaton i a as opponents, and Kreml garnered a decision. Peterson lost the deciding bout in a surprise fall. Armour's matmen gained revenge against the North Central team by squelching them, 26-8, on the Tech floor on February 15. Hella and Schmidt won by decisions, and Dunne, Kreml, Sumner, and Peterson conquered by falls. In the return Teachers' match at DeKalb on February 20, Armour won, 19-13, as Hella, Kreml, and Sumner stayed on top the longest. Dunne and Schmidt each pinned their opponent in less than two minutes. The Chicago second team was defeated 18-13 on February 23 with falls by Schmidt, Kreml, and Peterson, and a decision for Sumner. Hella Wheaton's strong team again brought defeat to Armour, in a home meet on February 27, with a 21-11 score. Peterson pinned his adversary in :59 with a body lock, and Schmidt and Sumner won with time advantages. The bone twisters won both of their scheduled meets against Wright Junior College, by the scores of 23-15 on March 20 at Wright, and 26-8 on March 29 at Armour. Dunne won two deci- sions, and Schmidt, Sumner, and Bergquist took falls in both meets. Kreml pinned his man in the first match and took a decision in the second, while Peterson won by a fall in the second. In a return engagement at the Lincoln-Belmont Y on March 21, Bergquist won by a fall, and Schmidt, Sumner, Kercher, and Popper won decisions for a 17-16 victory over the Illinois State Championship Y.M.C.A. wrestling team. 1934-35 WRESTLING SCHEDULE Dato Opponent Armour Dec. 12 Lincoln-Bel.

Stober V ith only a single man returning from the 1934 team, hopes for a successful boxing season were quite small when Coach Weissman issued the call last autumn for aspiring pugilists. A number of new men turned out, and under Sonny's able tutelage were rounded into a fairly capable team, but not one strong enough to cope with the usual class of competition. Manager Biegler did arrange two meets, however, one with Culver and one with Duncan Y.M.C.A., and in these the Techawks were fairly successful. The squad opened its 1935 season on March 23 at the Culver Military Academy and gained the respect and admiration of the Academy boys by holding them to a 5-5 draw. The Techawks got off to a good start in the first bout when Bob Hella, the Engineer fly weight, gave his opponent a thorough demonstration of good boxing and gained the decision of the judges. He was followed into the ring by Ruben, the Armour bantamweight, who lost by a close margin after fighting on the offensive all through the match. The next in order Hello. Mahnke. Simoon.

Behmer became master of the situation from the start and easily won the judges' decision. Brown, a newcomer in the lightweight division, put up a great scrap, but towards the latter part of the match caught an unexpected short jab on the chin that put him away for the count. Seidenberg, another Techawk flyweight, also lost his bout by a close margin. Johnny Lindahl, the Engineer welterweight, easily won a decision in one of the fastest matches of the day. It was a continuous rain of blows on the part of both men, but Lindahl stood up better under them than his opponent. In the next match Paul Moore, another wel- terweight, met the captain of the Academy team, a hard hitting southpaw, and was knocked out in the second round. In the following slug-fest, Mahnke of Armour all but knocked out his opponent for the decision. Sramek, following Mahnke into the ring, lost a tough bout, but not without a good fight. The last match of the afternoon found Stober, the Tech heavy- weight, the victor in a good scrap, after putting his man down for the count of nine. Armour's pugilists were sadly disappointed when they traveled to the Duncan Y. M. C. A., on April 11, for a match and the Y boys did not show up. However, the day was saved when three boxers from the South Chicago Y came in and agreed to give the Engineers a workout. The first to box was Ruben, who chased his man from one comer of the ring to the other to gain the decision. The next bout found Behmer and his opponent in a spirited give and take affair with Behmer on the taking end of one too many pokes. Paul Moore lost the last bout on a very close decision. Though no letters were given because of the few meets, the 1936 season is looked forward to with greater expectations due to the number of returning men. The team will be under the able leadership of Co-captains-elect Behmer and Sramek and Manager-elect Hughes. Ruben Lindahl Moore Seidenberg Stober Mahnke lOl i a as INTERFRATERNITY ATHLETICS Joseph M.

To the usual forms of interclass competition, relays, softball, baseball, basketball, and track, there was added last December the swimming relay event. This was held in conjunction with the first interfraternity swimming meet, which now provides a new source of annual athletic competition for the fraternity men. Ping-pong is holding its own as a highly exciting winter sport. As with all intramural athletics, the tournaments to determine individual champions in golf, tennis .track, wrestling, and boxing have resulted in discoveries of new talent for the varsity teams. In addition during the last year, the 'Tech News' has sponsored an innovation of inter- departmental-interclass competition in softball and touch-football. The electricals in the Class of 1936 won the first softball tournament. Cold weather concluded the touch-football tourna- ment at a three-way tie between the senior mechanicals, the junior electricals, and the soph- more mechanicals. CHEER LEADERS Joseph H.

An event that shows its greatness in its simplicity and informality. . . . Where all socially inclined men of Armour gather to the last dance of its Senior Class. ... A tradition in the hearts of all Techawks. Long before the occasion was to be held the affair was on the lips and tongue of every man of Armour that was young enough or old enough to appreciate what real pleasure can be. Who was going to be the lucky girl that would be honored by his company? Where would they go after the dance? Dance, girls, music, soft lights—all gathered in and confused his brain while he was supposed to be pondering over his studies. Hence, after days of anticipation of an evening of love and revelry, the Armourites pre- sented themselves on December 8. 1934, at the Crystal Ballroom of the Hotel Shoreland for the Senior Informal, there to dance to the rhythmic music of Bill Paden's ten-piece orchestra. One hundred and fifty Techawks, with their best sweethearts, took time out to relax their over- tired brains from the monotony of the school curriculum. The breezes of Lake Michigan, adjacent to the scene of festivities, the spacious ballroom, the comfortable lounge, and the soft strains of the orchestra were all that was needed to make the dance a huge success. The luxuries of the dance were enjoyed not only by students but also by faculty members and their wives who served as chaperones. These were Dean and Mrs. Heald, Professor and Mrs. Finnegan, and Professor and Mrs. Ensz. SENIOR SOCIAL COMMITTEE Fred I. Moyer lohn J. Ahem Roy H. Wittekindt William A. Trudelle, Chairman Malcolm C.

To start the New Year off right and to prepare the men for a long period of study, the Junior Class had their annual informal dance on January 11, at the L ake Shore Athletic Club. In answer to the demands of the men in the Junior Class, the committee prepared an eve- ning that did justice to their appeals. Beautiful and expensive bids were designed, a large and elaborate ballroom was procured, and Stan Norris' melodious orchestra was hired. Here was an affair to be remembered. Soft lights, sweet music, smooth floor, and beautiful girls combined to make this an unforgetable event. There was difficulty in obtaining a suitable ballroom which would meet the requirements and do justice to such an affair. After much scouting and scanning, the Lake Shore Athletic Club was decided upon as the ideal spot. So on January 11, 1935, one hundred and seventy five gay couples danced to the very tuneful music of Stan Norris and his orchestra. Special arrangements of college songs including Armour's ''Alma Mater and the Fight Song en- hanced the collegiate atmosphere immensely Undoubtedly, the dance was very successful as was shown by the expression of enjoy- ment and approval on the faces of the dancers. A fair unit of judges for the success of the dance was made up of the chaperones: Professor and Mrs. Moreton, Professor and Miss Tibbals, Professor and Mrs. Spears, Professor and Mrs. Libby, Professor and Mrs. Paul, and Mr. Fulghum and Miss Johnston.

Ormsby (Not on picturo) lOft FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE ENGINEERS’ HOP The Frosh-Soph dance . . . representing the initiative and resourcefulness of the underclass- men of the Institute ... a yearly event in the college life of Armour Tech . . . the night when two rival classes become one, and rivals become friends. On February 22, 1935, Armour's social spotlight was focused on the Bal Tabarin Ballroom of the Hotel Sherman, revealing the gay and colorful crowd that made the Freshman-Sopho- more Engineers' Hop one of the most outstanding social events of the season. The beautiful Bal Tabarin, with its ever changing lighting effects, fantastically carried the dancers on its magic carpet from undersea surroundings of treasure ships, seaweed, and fish to far-away tropical isles. At one time a large A was projected on the wall, and this was followed by a skyline view of Chicago and a resplendent autumnal sunset. Many couples, wishing souvenirs, posed for old time tintypes, wearing Gay Ninety hats and costumes. Maurie Sherman's Columbia Broadcasting orchestra furnished the well arranged and pleas- antly varied music. The band featured the vocalist, Joe Plodtke, who soon became the danc- ers' favorite. Kay Tolan also entertained with her distinctive personality and voice. The ho- tel presented the floor show of its College Inn, starring Miss Olive Olsen and providing an excellent program that was greatly enjoyed by the Armour group. The joint committee, under the leadership of Stan Healy and Oreste Tomei, worked hard to give the Techawks a dance of this type and were rewarded in knowing that the Engineers' Hop will long be remembered. t I ? r, t t % 11 v- w FRESHMAN SOPHOMORE SOCIAL COMMITTEE George H.

This was the night that made the men hate to pick up books and pencils to prepare for the final exams. Oh! Why must beauty be contrasted with the colorless. Such was the case of the Junior Formal and its inevitable aftermath—from an atmosphere of joy, cheer, and un- bounded happiness to one of deep study and concentration. On Friday evening. May 18, some eighty couples congregated at the Edgewater Beach Hotel to dine and dance to the tune of Phil Levant's orchestra. The dinner party was held in the spacious and well known Crystal Ballroom. To the feminine member of each couple was presented a Monte Carlo favor of varying variety. LE BAL D’AUTOMNE Once again the architects of Armour Institute made to the student body their annual offer- ing of an evening of fun and entertainment. Held atop the Steuben Club on Friday evening, November 16, Le Bal d' Automne was the annual dance sponsored by the Armour Architec- tural Society. One hundred and twenty-five couples attended the gala Arx ball, with engineers as numer- ous as architects. With Wilson Barnett and his well known orchestra supplying many new and delightful arrangements of the latest melodies, the dance was a huge success. A waltz contest added a final touch to an enjoyable evening. ARX SOCIAL COMMITTEE Ralph B. Priestloy, Chairman Milton J. Bojoek Ralph G. Edmonds Richard P. Lischor Arthur H. Schreiber Charles H.

For fifty-one weeks of the year the men of Armour nurse their grudges. Then, with the coming of Junior Week, the age-old urge gets the best of their gentlemanly characteristics, and the battle is on. It is a war of class versus class, students versus faculty, fraternity versus fraternity, and man versus fellow man. Early on May 14, 1934, red and green flags were posted about the Institute, proclaiming a state of war to exist between the freshmen and sophomore classes, among whose members there had been much friction lately. It was a surprise though when the exalted Seniors en- gaged the Juniors in a fast game of pushball. Losing this new attraction, the Seniors, disdain- ful even in defeat, left the field, holding cracked noses, necks, and other anatomical parts in as dignified a manner as possible. Intramural baseball finals were the next order of the day, and in the evening truce was called as parents, friends, and sweethearts thronged to see on display at Open House the intricate daily work of the engineers. A dance held in the gym concluded the festivities and, as a new feature, was acclaimed by all. The armistice was broken the next morning when the Sophomores immersed the Freshmen in bath on Ogden Field. Hostilities resumed at 10:00 A. M. with the Pentathalon which deter- mined the outstanding letterman and non-letterman track stars. Two softball games featured the afternoon, the Juniors carrying honors against the Seniors and the Frosh defeating the mighty Sophomores in a ten-inning thriller, a diplomatic umpire diverting any riot. On Wednesday those mighty warriors of the diamond, the Juniors, defeated the omnipres- ent Freshies in the interclass finals. In the Faculty-Senior game, due to their superior strategy on the field, the profs managed to chisel out a victory. The Intrafraternity Relay at one JUNIOR MARSHALS Richard L. Fried© William W.

Later a sad group of Armourites witnessed the defeat of the varsity nine by North Central in a conference championship game. Spirits were revived in the evening, however, by the enjoyable Spring Concert. Honor 'Cycles' were given out by Dr. Hotchkiss, after which Delta Tau Delta received the cup for winning the Sing. The Frosh were publicly ridiculed when the Sophomores released a large poster depicting themselves as elephants stamping out a plague of Freshmen, shown as very green insects. Skirmishes started Thursday at the crack of dawn, many a weary underclassman losing trousers, dignity, and temper. The fights calmed a little as the factions assembled on Ogden Field to witness the Interfratemity Track Meet, won by Triangle for the third consecutive time. In the evening all forgot personal enmities and united on Michigan Boulevard for the annual jamboree and bonfire. The enemy, police and firemen, arrived en masse, but the little army fought valiantly to win the scrimmage. Circus Day saw the staid old Institute a veritable madhouse. Pants, eggs, fire extinguishers, and Irish confetti were in the air, and an effigy of a poor Frosh hung mockingly over 33rd Street. In the only scheduled morning battle, the Juniors won the Interclass Relay to com- plete a perfect competitive record for the festivities which they fostered. In the afternoon the Rush of the century raged on Ogden Field. Casualties were numerous on both sides, but the irresistable Sophomores snatched every sack to overwhelm the Freshmen and became the third class in history to win tv o rushes. Phi Kappa Sigma took the skin in the Interfratemity Pageant by their fiery A. W. A. skit. The warriors then hurried off to their homes to patch up their injuries and get dressed in the old soup and fish for the Junior Prom.

Korcher Business Manager THE 1935 CYCLE Collecting and assembling the mass of copy and pictures required for a yearbook is a huge task, and it is only with the cooperation and help of a good staff and countless other interested people that this can be successfully accomplished. We have this year tried to make the Cycle as complete and descriptive of life at Armour Tech as is possible in mere words and pictures. More photographs were used in the 1935 Cycle than ever before in an Armour yearbook. The reader will find in the class section, in addition to the usual formal group pictures, scenes from the classroom and laboratory which are most typical of the curriculum studied in each department in that particular stage of a Techawk's education. In the athletics section intramural sports were stressed more than before because of their increasing prominence and the widespread student participation. Junior week, as the outstanding period of the school year, is richly illustrated with many pictures. Our snapshot section has been treated differently that it might be more interesting. A radical change in cover design and materials is expected to meet a welcome reception among the students. Acknowledgements to those outside of the student staff are but a small way of showing our appreciation for the great help rendered. Mr. Enoch V. Linden of the Linden Printing Company, Mr. Bruce Cowan of the Pontiac Engraving Company, and Mr. Roy Solem of the Marshall Photography Studios gave many extra hours of their time that we might perfect our book. Professor Krehbiel of the Department of Architecture lent much assistance in the working out of the art motif. To the other members of the faculty and to the students who contributed articles on organizations which they headed we also extend our thanks. That this book does so portray the events of this past school year that it may often be fondly referred to in the years to come is the sincere hope of all the members of the 1935 Cycle” staff. 120 Davis Gallagher Hughes Sumner Bard Nakayama Sobol Biegler Fogle Paulsen THE CYCLE STAFF Editor-in-Chief......................................George W.

Simek 121 r r ARMOUR ENGINEER The Armour Engineer” origi- nated in the form of a very small technical publication which pub- lished articles contributed solely by the faculty and students of the Institute. In 1924 the magazine joined the group v hich comprised the membership of the Engineer- ing College Magazines Associa- ted. The Engineer remained in this organization until 1932 when, as a part of the development plan, it was renovated and issued in a more compact and improved state. This transition from the bulkier book necessitated withdrawal from the E.C.M.A. as its specifications required the larger size. With the change, the Engineer affiliated with the National Scholastic Asso- ciation, and in the first year was awarded the highest honor given by that organization. In the annual competition in 1934 for the Yale Cup, awarded each year by the Yale Scientific Magazine for the most outstand- ing undergraduate publication in the scientific field, The Armour Doan© Patterson Nachman Engineer was the recipient of the second place award, one of the highest such distinctions in the country. The aim of the Yale award is to bring the college scientific publications into more intimate contact and to better the workmanship by placing the publications on a competitive basis. The contest is open to any and all college scientific magazines regardless of membership or non-membership in various press associations. In the metamorphosis of the Engineer, a staid attractive design was used. In the past year, the book was modernized. The cover has been redesigned along the modem trend in cover work, while the type face has been changed to the newest variety. The humor section has been increased due to the demands of both student body and advertisers while the editorial content has been composed of a semi-technical nature rather than the very purely technical contents of the past. All of these changes have blended to produce a book v hich maintains its reputation of being one of me leaders among such student publications. Within the course of the next year it is expected that a very important change will be made to further the usefulness of the Eingineer. The circulation it is hoped will be increased to reach all Armour alumni, and the subject matter v ill be made to include contributions from many new sources. 1 oo I 9 3 r r r r ENGINEER STAFF Board of Control Ellis H.

At first regarded as a rather doubtful experiment, it has come to be accepted as a major student achieve- ment. There is, of course, a definite need for a student newspaper in every college, but the awareness which every Tech News board has shown to the particular needs of Armour has gone a long way toward increasing the im- portance of the paper to the school. Handled entirely by a student staff who are given no awards and no pay for their work, and who have very little time to spare for it anyway, the gather- ing of news must necessarily be accord- ing to a careful plan if it is to be com- plete and authentic. The plan in use, developed out of original experience, has been highly successful, and credit must be given to this year's managing board, who had a large part in improv- ing it. The Tech News now covers the news at Armour as completely as any newspaper could. Although the gathering of news is the principle function of Armour's student newspaper, it has a number of others also, and many of these have been notably added to during the past year. The feature departments have, in particular, been improved and aug- mented. Other Campuses, a column of news gleaned from the student publi- cations of other colleges was introduced several years ago and has proved an extremely popular feature. A special effort has been made during the past year to include news of local scientific Tech News Smoker happenings and of scientific events of national importance. Editorially, also, the News has been active. Its policy in general has always been to support whatever seems best for Armour. Among its activities is the sponsorship of a greatly increased program of intramural sports. It is plain that progress has ever been the guiding light of the Armour Tech News. It owes its existence to the pride its workers have taken in making it a growing, improving newspaper, and its continued well-being depends on the premise that the breed of its workers won't change. 124 i a 3 s r r rrii rll II r rl r r TECH NEWS STAFF, MANAGING BOARD Edwin N.

Creation of the new board involved a number of changes, but the same members of the faculty who have always shown great interest in Armour's student publica- tions make up the committee. Besides administering the funds of the publications, and passing on major questions in their development, the Student Publications Advisory Committee, as its name implies, acts as an advisory board in the management of the Armour Tech News, the Armour Engineer, and the Cycle. The old Board of Publications had jurisdiction only over the Tech News and the Engineer; a separate board supervised the Cycle. Some duplication of effort has thus been overcome. The new committee, unlike the former Board of Publications, has no student members. The principal reason for this change was the introduction of the new set-up of faculty committees. It was desired to have the publications committee similar in form to those on other matters. No loss of student control of the publications was caused by this move; on the contrary, an actual gain was made, since the student managing boards are no longer required to meet with the faculty advisers in such matters as editorial policy.

The organization known as the Armour Tech Musical Clubs was formed in 1922, the exist- ing musical organizations at the time forming the nucleus of the new society. The organiza- tion is now composed of the Orchestra and the Glee Club, both of which are under the direc- tion of Mr. O. Gordon Erickson, who has ably directed the clubs for the past three years. Since its founding, it has been the aim and desire of the Musical Clubs to foster an appre- ciation of music not only among its members, but among those who lacked the talent to join one of the group. To further this objective, the clubs combined to present to the faculty and student body a concert just before the Christmas Holidays. Again, at the Spring Concert, given annually in May, a delightful program consisting of orchestral, choral, and novelty numbers, judiciously intermingled with the Interfraternity Sing, marked the final performance of the year given at the Institute. Besides the concerts given at the school, the Musical Clubs have appeared in concert at many spots in the city. One of the most enjoyed places at which a concert was given was the Court of the Hall of States at A Century of Progress. The clubs appeared there several times during the summer and also after the fall semester had begun. The Tech musical organizations have appeared before several of the leading clubs and business associations of the city at noon-time luncheons, these being namely, the Rotary Clarke, Zwittltr, All.

The members feel that their appearances before these organizations of business men have been an aid in placing the name of Armour before the general public. A form of concert which has proven very popular with the members of the clubs is one v hich is given before a group of young women and is generally followed by dancing. Three of these were given in the past year, at the National College of Education, Evanston, at the McCormack Y.W.C.A., and at the Belmont Hotel. All in all, the outside engagements have done a good deal to foster a spirit of fellowship in the Musical Clubs and an interest in the musical work at Armour. As in the past, all of the cares of the moment were set aside for awhile on the occasion of the annual Musical Club Smoker. Here, amid an atmosphere of good-fellowship and amiability, these men, who have worked so hard and gained such little recognition, spent a very pleasant evening, when all but the joys at hand were forgotten. The Musical Clubs feel that they have lost a valuable friend and adviser in Professor Emeritus Charles Leigh, who has been the faculty adviser for many years. However, v ith the continued splendid direction of Mr. Erickson, the clubs feel that they can look forward to many more successful seasons.

DeBoo.............................President Raymond J. Maci....................... Vice-President Fred J. Meyer...............................Secretary Millard J. Fotter...........................Treasurer Professor Daniel Roesch............Honorary Chairman Joseph H. DeBoo After a very successful season, functioning as an active organization, both in the national society and as a local group, the Armour branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers has drawn its activities to a close. During this year, the third that the society has operated under the plan for student branches, the object of which is to foster a more intimate relationship between the student branch and the parent society, a record membership of sixty has been attained, and a new plan for meetings has been devised. An effort was made by the officers to have the activities of the society carried on chiefly by various committees in order to stimulate cooperation among as many of the members as possible. One of the chief pursuits of the meetings during the year was to have the students enter into an active discussion of the subjects presented. It is the aim of this society to help the members in becoming proficient in the art of impressing their opinions upon others in a forceful manner. The members were called upon to give various talks on chosen subjects, and a competition was held for the official delegate to the annual student convention. Variations in the programs were brought about by securing speakers who are leaders in mechanical fields. An innovation this year was obtained in the several inspection trips made by the society. The object of these trips is to help the student in becoming acquainted with the various methods employed in manufacturing and the different types of installations and equip- ment in use in the Chicago area. The society sponsored a smoker, and the members turned out en masse to enjoy themselves, with no thoughts being wasted on lessons. A.S.M.E. Smoker at Beta Psi House r r rill r i a 3 is Radvilias.

Freeman.........Faculty Adviser Louis F. Higgins The Armour Branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers was the first of the professional societies organized at Armour. The purpose of the student branch is to attempt to bridge the gap between the strict academic work and later professional life and to lend reason to the theory learned at Armour by securing speakers of note in the electrical engineering field to talk on their problms and methods of attacking them. The branch started the school year with a business meeting on October 12, at which it was decided to follow much the same plan of activities as had been so successful in the past, that is, outside speakers at the semi-monthly meetings with a smoker and spring picnic as the lighter attractions. Four interesting sound films were presented on November 6 by the Illinois Bell Telephone Company depicting recent developments in communication engineering. This type of show certainly proved popular as evidenced by the presence of some three hundred guests from the other departments of the Institute. Another outstanding meeting was addressed by Mr. Carl Miller of the Weston Instru- ment Company on February 1. Mr. Miller gave a complete and interestingly illustrated talk on the development, characteristics, and application to industry of the Weston Photronic cell. Along the lighter side of the program a smoker gave the electricals a chance to forget the problems of three-phase alternating current circuits and motor and generator tests in one night of real fun. Games and refreshments were enjoyed by all. r r r r rr r r r « P c Vimrt t • f f tJjJJS t 1 r «i t «f f • t f ? • f- '4 M f I 1 I t 'I V Z TT V TT ♦?t M f t f t tj f 1 Varone, Vaillant, Pantone, Krok, Aravosis, Mozok, Chapin, Knaus, Mooro, Gruca, Rupport, Haegor, Hoffman, Slowiak, Slrr Holland, Slugg, Tuma, Cooper, Stanovich, Kirsch, Putignano, Wolf.

Nelson Organization among the students of civil engineering at Armour dates back to 1906 when the Armour Civil Engineering Society was formed. This organization existed under that name until 1919 when it was chartered as the Armour Branch of the Western Society of Engineers. Its purpose is to bring to the students some association with outstanding practicing civil engineers. This year the Board of Managers have endeavored to arrange a well balanced program which might cover many phases of engineering. In the course of the year, the organization has heard speakers from various fields, covering such subjects as aeronautics, subway design, city planning, inland waterways, dams, bridges, and scientific research in transportation. On October 26 the Armour Branch of the Western Society of Engineers had the honor of sponsoring the first all-engineering-society meeting of the school year. The guest on that occa- sion was Mr. Charles C. Whittier, consulting engineer and president of the W.S.E. The first of the semi-annual smokers put on by the society was held at the Triangle house on December 14. The entertainment took the form of a Monte Carlo party. Prizes were given high and low men. with a special division for married civils. Refreshments were plentiful, so much so that the Seniors finished the keg of cider up in the drafting room the following week. The society on February 27 again held an open meeting for the entire student body. This time it presented one of the most interesting speakers of the year, Mr. R. A. Kirkpatrick, presi- dent of the National Americanism Congress, who was representing the Union Pacific Railroad Company. He gave an up-to-the-minute, illustrated talk on Boulder Dam. W.S.E.

Woiland Beta Chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers has just completed a very successful year. It has striven not only to promote a feeling of fellowship among the students in the department, but also to provide a close relationship with the professional chapter. A step in bringing about a more intimate contact with the professional chapter was taken when the Chicago section of the A.I.Ch.E. was the guest of the Armour Chapter at a joint meet- ing and banquet held on the evening of October 11 in the Armour cafeteria. The principal speaker was Mr. Harold J. Brownlee, technical director of the Quaker Oats Company. On November 23, the chapter was fortunate in securing Mr. Carl S. Miner, chief director of the Miner laboratories, who spoke on the subject, The Chemical Engineer on the Witness Stand. Mr. Miner drew numerous incidents from his own wide experience as a witness and gave the members an instructive as well as amusing talk. However, not all the thoughts of the members were concerned with serious problems. On the night of the annual smoker the trials and tribulations of student life were dispelled in a pleasant evening amid cumulo-stratus and nim bus clouds of hazy, blue smoke. A large turn- out of the members contributed to the success of the affair. The coveted Schmier Chemiker trophy seems to have found a permanent berth. The reason for this is that one man has so far excelled all others in laboratory technique that any efforts to surpass his feats are futile. The ancient trophy consists of an artistic replica of a broken flask, suitably engraved and appropriately attached to a safety pin. r| rl rl rl 1 9 3 5 Norris, Armsbury, Youngkrantz, L« vy, Rulis.

Seorl By means of an extensive program the Fire Protection Engineering Society during the past year has successfully upheld the basic purposes of its formation, namely, those of bringing the members into closer contact with men experienced in the field of fire protection engineer- ing and insurance and of fostering a spirit of fellowship among students in the department. Speakers covering a number of phases in the field presented their views and experiences at the regular meetings of the society. The first meeting of the school year was held October 12 with Mr. John A. Neale, Chief Engineer of the Chicago Board of Underwriters, the speaker. Mr. Neale spoke on The Chicago Stock Yards Conflagration and. having had charge of the in- vestigation of this fire, was able to present the inside information on the disaster. His discussion disclosed the strategy of the fire department in combating the fire, the obstructions that hampered the department, and the impractibility of using dynamite. Mr. Curtis R. Welbom, superintendent of the Underwriters Laboratories' label service, pre- sented one of the most interesting and enjoyable talks of the year when he addressed the society on the nature of the work of his department. He emphasized the significance of the inspection and re-examination services in the improvement of the many products submitted. All was not work throughout the year as the annual smoker held at the Beta Psi house evidenced. As usual, the fire protects turned out one hundred percent for this most enjoyable event, and a pleasant evening was had by all. Mr. Jackson V. Parker, the fostering guardian of the fire protects, made the principal address of the evening. F.P.E.S. Smoker at Beta Psl House 148 r| rl rr r r rl rr rr ffl K t M t J} f ?

Schreiber The Armour Architectural Society is composed of the student body of the architectural department of Armour at the Chicago Art Institute. Its purpose is to foster a feeling of good fellowship among its members, to sponsor all social activities, and to present speakers promi- nent in the architectural profession at various ti mes during the school year. Each succeeding junior class is entrusted with the administration of the society's affairs, and the officers of the architects of that class automatically become the officers of the society. It has been the tradition of the organization to present a fall dance, a spring dance, a bas- ketball tournament, a smoker, and finally a banquet. To the dances it has been customary to invite all students of Armour, but to the smoker and banquet only the architects. Probably the most eventful occasion of the year for each freshman class has been its initia- tion into the society. Some time after Junior Week a date is designated as Hell Day, the evening of which has been previously selected for the annual banquet. In the morning the freshmen are given a sketch problem to be finished by noon and judged by the junior class in the afternoon. After their lunch they are appointed to gather on the porch of the Art Insti- tute attired in their green hats, work gloves, a stocking muffler, and whatever else pleases the whims of the upperclassmen. They are marched into Grant Park, and from then on their troubles really begin. The great God of Architecture exacts many duties, and the culprits return, purified and chastised, from the field of honor, the proud possessors of a fellowship in the Armour Architectural Association. The evening banquet concludes the program. r| rl 1 3 3 5 f , t ® • t «' t t t % ft | f it I. A t t f ■o t r? t t t •. t ■ t % V V' t y V Buchhauser, Sumner. Hawley. Baker.

Wost The Campus Club was originated in 1927 to provide a recreation center for the students of Armour. From the time of founding until the fall of 1931 the Club used two rooms located on the first floor of 3331 Federal Street. In that year, due to the help of Mr. Allison, the Club secured two larger apartments in Chapin Hall. These were remodeled, and at the present time there are twelve rooms at the disposal of the members. Membership in the Campus Club is open to all students. The organization now has the largest roll of any such group at the Institute, there being over fifty active members. The rooms of the Club are open to any student who so desires to avail himself of the various facilities with which they are provided. The quarters of the Club are equipped with a radio, ping-pong table, pool table, and study rooms. Smokers are held throughout the school year and are always well attended and enjoyed by all. Refreshments are served, and the group of alumni who regularly turn out help to make the evening an even greater success. November 15 January 17.. March 15--- May 17.... SOCIAL.

Renstrom, Jr. During the past season the Armour Tech Rifle Club has continued in the success which has featured it during the last several years. This year's team was confronted with quite a set-back, due to the loss of most of the last year's dependable sharpshooters. The success of the team was due to the untiring efforts and able leadership of the two remaining veterans. Captain Henning and Manager Renstrom, who organized and coached the team selected from the members of the Rifle Club. The team participates in shoulder to shoulder matches with local teams and in postal matches with teams that cannot be met personally. The postal matches are preferred because of the convenience which they afford the men on the team. 1934-35 RIFLE MATCHES Oilfield Rifle Club......1359 Armour 1398 Mass.

Smith, President Due to the untiring effort of a few individals and the kind cooperation of the school authorities, a society for the promotion of aviation has been formed. This club made its debut as the Armour Aero Club and already has thirty memebrs. Its purpose is to stimulate interest in aviation, both by construction and theory. ARCHERY CLUB Harold L. Meyer, President Armour's enthusiasts in the use of the bow and arrow have during this last year actually united for their common interest. A site for the range has been chosen and the members have started their practice. The club hopes to buy its own equipment and compete with other schools. CHEMALUMN Robert M. Paulsen, Chairman The spirit and pep of the Junior Class has had an outgrowth in the formation of a new permanent organization. Chemalumn was formed last fall and is composed of the thirty- four junior chemicals with Professor Freud as an honorary member. Its object as stated in the by-laws is to further friendships of the '36 class of chemical engineers of Armour. CHESS CLUB Robert Hella, President The Armour Tech Chess Club has made rapid advances during the last year. It has renewed its membership in the Illinois State Chess Association and has been admitted to membership in the Illinois College League. T he club's team has been very successful in its meets this year, defeating the Farragut and Northwestern University Chess Clubs. Two matches with the Polo American Chess Club resulted in ties. CHINESE STUDENTS' CLUB Maurice Poy Shiu, President The Chinese Students' Club of Armour was organized in February of this year. Its aims are as follows: to give more publicity to Armour among the Chinese people; to foster closer relationship of Chinese engineering students in the Middle West; to study conditions in China as related to engineering. In the bi-weekly meetings individual members gave many interesting talks on technical subjects. GERMAN CLUB The German Club came into existence by the popular demand of the ambitious language students of Professor Hanns Fischer. Lectures and discussions are held weekly, comprising talks on Teutonic customs and the lives and achievements of outstanding Germans. Pro- fessor Fischer's selective program has furnished much inspiration, and the club plans to continue and expand. MATHEMATICS CLUB Roy S. Kercher, President Because of the fact that many of the students in an engineering school are interested in mathematics, the Mathematics Club was created. Applications and theoretical mathema- tics are usually discussed by the speakers. Frequent talks represent the endeavors of out- siders, members of the faculty, and students. RADIO CLUB Norman A. Pulliam, President The Armour Tech Radio Club of today is the outgrowth of a long line of previous clubs. Under the guidance of Professors Moreton, Sear, and Wilcox the group has progressed to a point where it is one of the leading organizations on the campus. A new station license was secured from the Federal Communications Commission, the present station call letters being W9YW. It is the purpose of the club to further the interest of Armour's radio amateurs. 156 HONORARY AND PROFESSIONAL FRATERNITIES r r HONORARY ENGINEERING Founded at Lehigh University in 1885 Sixty-seven Active Chapters BETA CHAPTER OF ILLINOIS Established in 1906 HONORARY MEMBERS .

Zibble Class of 1936 John O. Larson Howard P. Milleville Harry S. Nachman HISTORY Tau Beta Pi, an engineering honorary fraternity, was founded at Lehigh University. Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in June, 1885. Its primary purpose is to confer honor upon those engineering students who have maintained a high standard of scholarship, at the same time displaying a marked degree of initiative, a spirit of leadership, a strong character, a pleasing personality, and participation in general college activities. Beta Chapter of Illinois was chartered May 22, 1906. It was the fourteenth chapter of a roll that now numbers sixty-seven, located in the prominent engi- neering colleges of the United States. There are fifteen alumni chapters. Over 25,000 have been initiated into the organization. In the fall seniors in the upper quarter of their class are eligible for election, together with not more than three juniors from the upper eighth of the junior class. Juniors in the upper eighth and seniors from the upper quarter may be taken in at the spring initiation. Each year the chapter awards a subscription to any desired engineering magazine to the freshman highest in scholarship during his first year at Armour. In this way there is created an early interest in the ideals for which Tau Beta Pi stands. Robert M. Paulsen Raymond A. Peterson Frank D. Cotter man Russell R.

It developed from an organization formed by the members of the staffs of the Fulcrum, a former monthly publication, and the Integral, the Armour yearbook whose name was later changed to the Cycle. The society was originated with the purpose in mind of fostering and promoting the work of the Armour publications and of serving as an honorary society for services rendered the Institute through the student pub- lications. In 1909 the first Armour Engineer was sponsored by Sphinx, and in 1928 the organization and launching of the school's first weekly newspaper, the Armour Tech News, was backed by this literary society. Membership has been granted to 254 men at Armour Institute. Senior and junior students who hold executive positions on the staff of any of the three recognized publications at Armour and who have done work of a high char- acter and have shown exceptional ability over a period of two years, are considered for membership. 160 I 3 3 5 SPHINX OFFICERS Pled .

Realizing the benefits to be derived from such an organization and the necessity for binding together the outstanding members of the class, these students made the necessary steps for its organization. Eta Kappa Nu has as its purpose the bringing together of those who by their attainments in college or in pro- fessional work have manifested a deep interest and marked ability in elec- trical engineering. The union is intended to bestow mutual benefits by binding together the outstanding members of each class. Delta chapter was chartered at Armour on May 4, 1909. The nation-wide organization now includes twenty-three chapters. The election of candidates is based on scholarship as a prime requisite, with due consideration being given to interest and leadership shown outside the classroom. Each year an essay contest open to the sophomore class in electrical engi- neering is conducted by the society, the winner of the contest being presented with a Standard Handbook of Electrical Engineering as a prize for his endeavors. 102 ETA KAPPA NU r r William B.

Wieting Lee Van Scoyoc HISTORY In 1909 leading students in architecture at the University of Illinois organized a group called the Scarab fraternity. It had no intention of becoming a national organization when founded, the original purpose of the local society being the celebration of the completion of certain projects in the curriculum. How- ever, it did develop into a nation-wide professional architectural fraternity, until now it embraces thirteen temples. On the Armour campus an architectural fraternity was organized in 1900, known as Alpha Delta Tau. This organization continued until 1915, when it was granted a charter as Edfou Temple of Scarab fraternity. Scarab provides a means for attaining a broader knowledge of architecture and the allied arts, secures through association the advantages of a more refined culture, stimulates a greater interest in expression through the graphic arts, promotes friendly competition among students and schools of architec- ture, and creates a lasting spirit of fellowship and cooperation within the fraternity. Election to membership is based upon such qualities as ability, scholarship, character, and personality. 1«4 r r r r 1 9 3 5« SCARAB OFFICERS Raymond J. Schwab.................... Lawrence W.

Youngkrantz Robert M. Paulsen Otto Zmeskal Charles A. Schnackel Louis Siegel Phi Lambda Upsilon, honorary chemical engineering fraternity, was founded by the senior chemistry students at the University of Illinois in 1899, with the object in mind of promoting high scholarship and original investigation in all branches of pure applied chemistry. The fraternity now numbers thirty-three active chapters and one alumni group and has a membership of about seven thousand. Through the efforts of two members of the faculty of the Armour Chemical Engineering department. Professor C. A. Tibbals and Mr. C. F. Smith, Omicron chapter of Phi Lambda Upsilon was given its charter in 1920. Election of students to membership in Phi Lambda Upsilon takes place at the beginning of each semester. Admission into this fraternity is limited to members of the junior and senior classes in chemical engineering having the highest scholastic averages. Scholarship is the major basis of eligibility, being determined by averaging all grades, giving the chemical grades twice the credit value of the others. The personality of the student is considered only insofar as it pertains to good habits, neatness, and honesty, prime re- quisites of a good chemist. lfi(i I 3 3 S PHI LAMBDA UPSILON OFFICERS Albert E.

Zwissler HISTORY Chi Epsilon, honorary civil engineering fraternity, was founded at the Uni- versity of Illinois on May 20, 1922. Its purpose in originating was to provide an incentive for greater achievement in the civil engineering profession and to distinguish those undergraduates who have shown true ability by their scholastic attainments. Realizing the need of an honorary for civils at Armour, a group of seniors and juniors petitioned the Illinois honorary for civil engineering students and on March 9, 1923, was established as the second chapter of a nation-wide organization which is now represented in thirteen schools. Election to membership is based upon the four primary requisites of a suc- cessful engineer; scholarship, character, practicability, and sociability. A can- didate must have an average scholarship grade which will rank him in the upper one-third of his class and must be a student in regular standing in the civil engineering department in the senior or junior class. The official publication of the fraternity, The Transit, is issued twice a year. It contains, in addition to the news from the various chapters, articles of interest on a wide range of engineering subjects. 168 CHI EPSILON Pledge Ribbon First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester Purple and White George A.

Its purpose is to foster high scholarship and to incite investigation in all phases of fire protection engineering. The roster of this organization now numbers ninety-four. The primary requisite for membership in this fraternity is high scholarship, but this is not the only requirement. The candidate must show evidence of a strong character and must be a participant in school activities. Two initiations are held, one in the spring and the other in the fall. A news letter, the Deflector, published annually by the organization, contains news of alumni and the active chapter. Each year an award, the Handbook of Fire Protection, is presented by Salamander to the student of the freshman class in fire protection engineering who has the highest scholastic standing. 170 SALAMANDER OFFICERS John J.

Messinger Harry S. Nachman Arthur H. Rice Frederick L. Smith Pi Tau Sigma, national honorary mechanical engineering fraternity, was founded on March 16, 1915, at the University of Illinois. Its establishment came about when certain leading students in mechanical engineering felt the need of an organization to foster the spirit of a liberal culture in engineer- ing students following mechanical lines. Its purpose is three-fold; to empha- size through its membership the high ideals of the mechanical engineering profession, to stimulate interest in extra-curricular activities, and to promote the welfare of its members. Delta chapter was the fifth chapter in the fraternity, being chartered Decem- ber 22, 1924. The fraternity has expanded rapidly and now has fifteen chap- ters on its roll. Students are elected to Pi Tau Sigma from the upper half of the senior class and the upper quarter of the junior class in the fall. They are also elected from the upper third of the the junior class in the spring of the year. Although a high quality of scholarship is essential to membership, other qualities such as character, loyalty, personality, leadership, and college activity are required. A Mechanical Engineer's Handbook is presented each year to the fresh- man mechanical student who has the highest scholastic average. 172 r rl rl rl William W. Henning. Joseph H. DeBoo---- Raymond J.

It followed many months of consideration of the problems of the musical clubs and the need for such an organization. The charter members were a sincere group of men who realized the need of a stimulus for the musical organiza- tions at Armour. The aims of the fraternity have been to honor the men who have devoted their time and energies for four years to the musical clubs at Armour and to stimulate interest in the musical clubs and a broader interest in music and musical affairs at Armour. Twice each year the members scan the roll of the musical clubs and select therefrom those seniors and juniors who have been prominent in furthering the musical cause. Before initiation each pledge must prepare a paper, requir- ing research in the musical world. As the organization is a musical fraternity there is no scholarship require- ment which a man must attain before he may be pledged to Pi Nu Epsilon. However, he must pass a rigid examination of his musical knowledge before he may be pledged. 174 I 3 3 S PI NU EPSILON Officers Pledge Ribbon Scarlet and Grey J.

Peterson HISTORY Alpha Chi Sigma, a professional chemical fraternity, was founded at the University of Wisconsin in 1902 by a group of students of chemistry who were desirous of banding together for professional and social benefits. Its purpose is to bring chemical students and professional chemists into closer contact and to strive for the advancement of chemistry both as a science and as a profession. Alpha Psi chapter was chartered at Armour Institute on December 13, 1930, when the members of a local fraternity, known as the Flask and Beaker, were initiated into the national organization. Being a professional rather than an honorary fraternity. Alpha Chi Sigma in no way conflicts with Phi Lambda Upsilon. In addition to the forty-eight collegiate chapters there are seventeen pro- fessional chapters situated in the principal cities of the country. A feature of the fraternity is a placement bureau maintained by these professional chap- ters to aid graduating members in securing work. Candidates are elected twice a year from the senior, junior, and sophomore classes in Chemical Engineering. Election is based on scholarship, ability, and personality. 17(i ALPHA CHI SIGMA 1 g a 5 Robert M. Paulsen.. Leonard W. Robbie Alvin J. Ragan...... Algird Rulis........ J. Russell Lang....

Tuschall Favorite Song My Phi Kap Girl HISTORY The Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity was founded at the University of Pennsyl- vania, October 19, 1850. Conceived as a national organization, one which would place chapters only in the larger schools, it gradually expanded in the east and south, later spreading westward to the bounds of the Pacific, until it now contains thirty-seven chapters. Alpha Epsilon of Phi Kappa Sigma was the first such group to be estab- lished on the campus of Armour Institute of Technology. Fifteen men in school in the year of 1896 organized the Paragraph Club, their house being located at Thirty-fourth Street and Armour Avenue. After flourishing for two years as a local organization, this Paragraph Club, whose aim had been to petition a good national fraternity, received its charter as Alpha Epsilon Chapter of the Phi Kappa Sigma Fraternity, marking the coming of the first fraternity on the Armour campus.

The Rainbow Fraternity, the first distinctly Southern Fraternity, was absorbed by Delta Tau Delta in 1886. Since then rapid expansion has increased the number on the chapter roll to seventy-five. Gamma Beta chapter of Delta Tau Delta grew from a club that was formed by seven members of the class of 1903. This group progressed under the name of the Monolith Club until April 16, 1900, when it was reorganized and called the Consonant Club. Two of the members of the group were also members of Delta Tau Delta, having come to Armour from Ohio Wesleyan University. At this time the club had a membership of sixteen men. A peti- tion for membership was presented at the Western Division Conference of Delta Tau Delta on February 22, 1901. On May 10, Gamma Beta of Delta Tau Delta was installed at Armour Institute of Technology. 184 DELTA TAU DELTA SOCIAL CALENDAR Rush Dance...................................................October 5 Rush Dance...................................................October 10 Mothers' Tea.................................................November 12 Pledge Dance.................................................December 1 Alumni Banquet...............................................December 12 Mothers' Tea.................................................December 17 Dance .......................................................January 26 Mothers' Tea.................................................February 3 Rush Dance...................................................February 8 Initiation Banquet...........................................March 10 Twenty-sixth Annual Delt Prom................................April 13 Founders' Day Banquet........................................May 10 Spring Formal................................................May 25 Senior Farewell Party........................................June 15 L.

For many years it was a social society having the same standing as the general fraternities, but restricting its membership to technical students. However, in the early twenties, membership was generalized, and chapters were also placed in institutions other than technical, the total number now being thirty-six. Alpha Gamma Chapter was formerly the local fraternity. Omega Lambda, founded at Armour on October 21, 1908. In 1921, wishing to become national, they gained the permission of the Institute authorities, and after receiving a charter, they became known as Alpha Gamma Chapter of Theta Xi, the instal- lation taking place on February 25, 1922. 188 I 3 3 5 r rl it r ] r rl HIM 11 rl THETA XI SOCIAL CALENDAR Radio Dance..................................................October 15 Halloween Dance..............................................November 2 Christmas Party..............................................December 19 Radio Dance..................................................January 5 Valentine Party..............................................February 7 Smoker ......................................................March 1 Initiation Banquet...........................................March 2 Hard Times Party.............................................April 5 Founders' Day Banquet........................................April 26 Picnic.......................................................May 26 Senior Farewell..............................................June Smith Norris Roberts Sea berg Wolf Christonson Glos Korcher Parsons Stevens Willis Anderson Graham Hedlund Kropf ISO PHI PI PHI Founded at Northwestern University in 1915 Twenty Active Chapters GAMMA CHAPTER Gamma Chapter of Beta Phi Founded in 1913 Chapter Charter Granted on November 24, 1923 3131 South Michigan Boulevard First Semester OFFICERS Second Semester Colors Richard L.

Winkler HISTORY Phi Pi Phi Fraternity was organized at Northwestern University in 1915, and since that time has had a very rapid growth. It now has a chapter roll embrac- ing groups in twenty colleges and universities. The history of Gamma chapter is a record of the local chapter of two fraternities, namely. Beta Phi and Phi Pi Phi, and of the assimilation of the former by the latter. The Armour Beta Phi chapter. Gamma, was established at Armour in March, 1913, and after the War dwindled the national organiza- tion to one remaining chapter. Phi Pi Phi was petitioned. On November 24, 1923, the Armour organization was installed as Gamma chapter of this national group. 190 SOCIAL CALENDAR Rushee Dance .................................

Its formation was brought about through the action of eight members of that college desirous of establishing a brotherhood of loyalty, integrity, honesty, and friendship. Nationalization started in 1913 and has continued until now thirty-three chapters are numbered on its roll. Sigma Epsilon chapter, at Armour Institute, was the twenty-third link in the chain. Prior to February 5. 1922, it was known as the Ohr Club, which had been in official existence at Armour since 1914. Then, having petitioned the national group and having been favorably received, it was installed. The bonds of friendship formed during college days are not broken upon graduation, as numerous alumni clubs located in nearly every large city preserve friendships already formed as well as foster fellowship to visiting brothers. 192 Rush Smoker Annual Pledge Party Founders' Day House Party Alumni Banquet House Party Summer Formal October 5 October 30 February 5 February 17 April 3 April 14 June 16 SIGMA ALPHA MU SOCIAL CALENDAR Bernstein Addis Freund Alexander Chayos Modes Schreiber Schuman Weissman i : r r r RHO DELTA RHO Founded at Armour Institute of Technology in 1919 1 Active Chapter ALPHA CHAPTER Founded on August 27, 1919 3333 South Michigan Boulevard Color Orange and Black OFFICERS lack N.

Ross HISTORY In the last months of the year 1918, several students at Armour Institute of Technology became innoculated with the true spirit of college fratemalism and laid plans for a permanent organization. On the 27th day of August, 1919, the Rho Delta Rho Fraternity was chartered in the State of Illinois and a formal petition for recognition as a local fraternity was prepared. The peti- tion was accepted by the Institute, and Rho Delta Rho became established on the campus in February, 1920, with an initial membership of ten. That the bonds of friendship and loyalty, which were cherished by the foun- ders, fulfill the true fraternity spirit, is evidenced by the closely united alumni chapter, which meets regularly once a month. 194 r 1 9 3 5i RHO DELTA RHO SOCIAL CALENDAR Pledge Dance.......

Later several other departments were taken in, and by a referendum vote in 1921, eligibility was extended to all undergraduates whose course of study leads to a degree in Engineering. The Armour chapter of Triangle originated in a local fraternity known as the Scroll and Triangle, which was the outgrowth of an idea possessed by six Armour students who likewise felt the need of an organized group having similar ideas of fellowship. Scroll and Triangle was recognized as a local fraternity in 1921, and its petition to Triangle was approved at the fourteenth annual convention. On May 26, 1923, it was installed as the Armour chapter of Triangle Fraternity. 196 TRIANGLE r r SOCIAL CALENDAR Rushing Dance.................................................October 4 Radio Dance...................................................October 25 Fathers’ Day..................................................November 16 Snowball Dance................................................December 23 Radio Dance...................................................January 13 Alumni Smoker.................................................February 16 Initiation ...................................................March 10 Founders' Day.................................................April 9 National Convention Dance....................................April 29 Senior Farewell..............................................June 8 Lyford Thompson Brown Froeman Hoaly Schmidt Scott Boyian Kendall Lundber?

Its true mean- ing is Builder,' which thus portrays the ideals of the group gathered under its banner. In 1926, in compliance with a suggestion from the Institute, the name was changed to the Greek letter term. Kappa Delta Tau. In 1931, the Fraternity was incorporated under the laws of the state of Illinois, and in order to avoid dupli- cation of the name it was changed to Kappa Delta Epsilon. 198 m mu KAPPA DELTA EPSILON SOCIAL CALENDAR Halloween Dance.....................

Ward James HISTORY On December 10, 1904, in Charleston, South Carolina, a small but earnest group of collegians of the time-honored College of Charleston, the oldest of municipal colleges, gathered together in the home of the parents of one of them. That meeting was the inception of a new fraternity which adopted in 1906 the draft of a constitution and laws providing for a national organization. Incorporation as a national college fraternity was granted by the State of South Carolina on December 23, 1907. The next twenty-eight years saw the expansion of the fraternity all over the country to a chapter enrollment of forty. In the spring of 1935, Beta Psi Fraternity looked forward to a national affiliation with some larger organization. It was disclosed that the ideals and principles of Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity were similar to Beta Psi, and so a merger was consummated to enable Beta Psi to perpetuate and further disseminate these beliefs through the broader field of mutual association. On May 5, 1935, Beta Chapter of Beta Psi Fraternity at Armour Institute of Technology was formally installed as the Alpha Phi Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi. 200 I 3 3 5 PI KAPPA PHI SOCIAL CALENDAR r r r r rl r Rushee Dance..........

Zibble Organized in 1927, the Interfraternity Council has served a valuable purpose as the con- trolling board for the common interests of the nine Armour social fraternities. It is composed of the presidents of each of the active chapters and is therefore the most logical body for deciding on policies for the general good of Armour's fraternity men. The passing on and enforcing of rushing rules is probably its most important function. During the past year due to a certain amount of dissatisfaction, the old rules were completely replaced by a new set, to become effective next fall. It is hoped that these rules will make easier the demonstration of the great advantages of fraternity life and in addition make a less strenuous period of the scheduled rushing season. Another of the Council's functions is the sponsoring of interfraternity athletics. To the program of competition in seven sports, there was during this last year added by the Council that of a swimming meet to be held in December of each year. The first water carnival met with great approval and support. The matter of an interfraternity ball was settled just a little too late for its success this school year. However, the Council has unanimously decided that next autumn a ball, prob- ably formal, sponsored by and for social fraternity men. will be held. 202 ADVERTISING r r ARMOUR INSTITUTE of TECHNOLOGY CHICAGO Offers four-year courses and graduate work in Mechanical Engineering Electrical Engineering Civil Engineering Chemical Engineering Fire Protection Engineering Architecture Engineering Science Programs of instruction 3re carefully planned to provide a background for advance in the professional fields; to develop a capacity for logical thinking; and to stimulate an active interest in current scientific, business, and social problems. — Summer Session June 24 to August 16 _ 7) First semester Ik gins September 23, 1935 «____ 204 THE INSTITUTE BULLETIN WILL BE SENT ON APPLICATION I 3 3 S r r r r rr r m MARSHALL ©0TUDIOS Successors to MABEL SYKES, Photographer 140 N.
