THE HONOR EDITION AWARD Each year the Armour Tech Athletic Association, in conjunction with the staff of the ‘Cycle , awards a special Honor Cycle to each of the ten seniors judged the most outstand- ing in the class. The selection of these ten men is made in accordance with a definite grading system set up by the Armour Tech Athletic Association and is under the jurisdiction of the Board of Athletic Control, the managing board of the Armour Tech Athletic Association. This grading system takes into account scholastic ability, athletic prowess, and leadership in school activities. These ten men are considered to have done more for Armour in advancing school spirit than any others in the Class of 1936 and are known as the Honor Edition Award Men. Emil Adamec William D.

SENIORS we upset tradition to become the third class in the history of the Institute to defeat the freshmen in the Class Rush. On the whole, the sophomore year prepared us excellently, both in studies and activities, to carry on throughout the remaining years. Our studies during the junior year were more directly as- sociated with our individual departments; applications of our newly acquired training toward our new problems occupied our primary interest. Enjoyment of pure engineering studies in our respective courses led us to further contacts with actual work in the field, when we became associated with the various engineering societies. The Junior Informal fulfilled all anticipations for an outstanding social event and far surpassed any previously set standards. In- creased efforts in outside activities and continued high quality of school work gained for certain juniors election to one or more of the honorary fraternities. Exceeding our highest expectations, the Junior Formal furnished a never to be forgotten climax to the most complete year of our college life. Continuing along specialized lines, our senior studies ac- quainted us with both the economic and technical aspects of the engineering field. Many of us were rewarded for our past efforts by gaining executive positions in the engineering societies; on the publications staffs; in the musical organizations; and on athletic teams. Our social activities were renewed with the Senior Informal Dance, which met all the standards previously set by our class for fine dances. Although many who started with us were forced to drop out, diminishing our numbers appreciably, we constitute one of the largest graduating classes of the Institute. The Baccalaureate Sermon, followed by Commencement, im- presses us more fully that we have achieved the first goal of our lives, and that we must be prepared to assume new duties and greater responsibilities. It is difficult to express the feeling of regret with which we leave, cherishing the memories of true friendships, and we can only hope that we may prove worthy alumni of Armour. Harry R.
