Dr. George A. Irland According to the diagram Electrical Engineering The atmosphere became electric whenever they appeared! Thev seemed to deri e great enjoyment from making sparks crackle, blowing fuses, and listening to the shrill whine of runaway motors (much to the distress of the profs). These were the elec- trical engineers— the ones who mastered the scepter of Zeus and put it to work in our invaluable telephones and radios. Their ideas came from field trips to electrical generating stations, labs and research centers. Their companions gathered as the Institute of Radio Enoineers and the American Institute of Electrical Enoineers. Mr. John B. Miller AMERICAN INSTITU I E OF ELEC IRICAL ENGINEERS-First Row.

Are vou ready, men? Mechanical Engineering Some people scouted for four-leaf clovers, and others carried ancient pennies, but the mechanical engineers got their luck from a slide rule. Day in and da out that little, hioh speed calculator proved to be the most indispensable item in an M. E. ' s life. It was also an unintentional conversation piece, for it fascinated everyone who saw its magic for the first time. But, even with all the atomic power in the world, these students have never been able to use their slide rules to build the perpetual motion machine that their brains resembled during college years. The American Societv for Mechanical Engineers was the national professional organization to which the M. E. ' s looked for up-to-the-minute news in their field. Dr. Warren D. Garman Mr. George M.
