P A. Page Fourteen Arthur Arton Hamersciilag, Sc.D., LL.D. Director Page Fifteen Ten years ago the Institute first opened its doors. In this brief period history has been made. Speaking from a more or less intimate association with the activities of the student body outside the classroom during this time, among the most significant of the developments manifest today arc the changing social ideals here. There is a growing sense of mutual respect, greater emphasis is laid upon the formation of independent judgment based on a truer sense of values; these are sure signs of a genuine democracy. In short, a belief that the aim here to train men and women, not alone in scholarship but to become good members of society, is a practical one, and easy of accomplishment when recognized by the students themselves. In these days of kaleidoscopic changes in our world relations this is worth while, and is attributable in a large degree to the influence of the graduates which has been commensurate with their increased interest in undergraduate life. Congratulations to the Decennial Editors of “The Thistle.” William P. Field. William P. Field, B. A Secretary Page Seventeen TEN YEARS OF TECH Elsewhere in this number of “The Thistle” will doubtless appear many allusions to the interesting fact that with the 1915 Commencement, the Carnegie Institute of Technology completes the first decade in her history. The story of the ten years would be a long one in the telling, as few educational institutions have been so fortunately situated as to travel so far in such a comparatively short period of time, but it can be condensed into a little group of figures that will serve to fix in the mind some conception of what our growth has been. 1905-06 1914-15 Number of students. 765 3223 Faculty 61 211 Graduates 00 1410 Numbers of Departments . 12 32 Number of Buildings 2 10 Annual Expenditures ....

She keeps them white; She guards them from the steep; She feeds them on the fragrant height, And folds them in for sleep. She roams maternal hills and bright, Dark valleys safe and deep. Into that tender breast at night The chastest stars may peep. She walks—the lady of my delight— A shepherdess of sheep. She holds her little thoughts in sight, Though gay they run and leap. She is so circumspect and right; She has her soul to keep. She walks—the lady of my delight— A shepherdess of sheep. “Later Poems,” Alice Meynell.

Within the building the six sisters took up their work, and here also they found most of their play. The work has not been easy, and it has taken much perseverance and determination to keep some of the weaker sisters alive. The strongest and oldest of these sisters is called Household Economics. She rises from her bed early in the morning; hustles to the beautiful building; and there, dressed in a stiff white shirt waist with a high standing collar, she begins her work and spends her time 'twixt cooking and special methods. Another of the older sisters is Costume Economics. All day she designs costumes and patterns, and then she sews and cuts and fits. For hours she must weave lace, and her other sisters hear her sigh when she is told that a certain piece must be finished by “the next time.” The next sister rises up before us. She is our matter-of-fact, business-like sister. She wears an agitated expression on her face most of the time, and we wonder what in her department has caused her to lose her gay and happy disposition. She must typewrite page after page without errors or sight of the keyboard. She must add columns of figures and keep books. Double entry-bookkeeping!—no wonder our Secretarial sister wears an agitated look. From her we pass to another sister quite opposite in disposition. She is one of our smaller sisters, and her name is Home Arts and Crafts. She also makes lace, and weaves rugs and sashes. She is artistic, and we go to her to make posters for us, and to illustrate our magazines. She models clay and makes wonderful trinkets. Next we turn to a still smaller, but a very lively sister, General Science. She is looked upon as being queer, almost insane. Her sisters call her “ Froggie” and “Spirogyra” and Cranioto.” They cannot imagine why she chooses to spend her time peeping through a microscope. From her we must pass to our baby sister. Social Service. Because of her cheerful disposition, she can go out and spend hours visiting the poor and the mis-fortunate, studying “Misery and its Causes.” She is one of the things which has helped us to be the big, broad family that we are. Now the time is drawing near when the six sisters will be separated, and they will pass out from the doors on the right, realizing that their education is not finished. but commencing; and as they walk away they will turn to look backward, and to Margaret Morrison, their Alma Mater, each one will be saying: “Thy' motto ever will remembered be By? each of the sisters in M. M. C. A little learning is a dangerous thing; ‘Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring.’ ” Page Twenty-six V MARGARET MORRISON CARNEGIE SCHOOL SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Eliza Dickey .... .

For we are loath to sing our own praises, as we are modest girls all. Therefore, let it he known that we arc much greater than we give ourselves credit for—both in thought and in action. Let us give three cheers for our graduates. We feel proud of, and wish to congratulate the Misses Howley, Bollman and Logan, who have completed the course in Costume Economics. May they succeed as well elsewhere as they have here. Our classes were not slow in organizing, the second, third and fourth year girls all taking part and coming under the head of the upper classes. The following officers were chosen: Katharine Hargrave, President; Tamar Scott, Vice-President; Irene DcMatty, Secretary; Alice Conley, Treasurer; Irene DeMatty and Loretta Weinheimer, Thistle Representatives. We all very much regretted that Miss Weinheimer was forced to give up school; but we found a worthy substitute in Miss Lisetta Kaiser. A Social Committee was elected, which has done much to help make our socials and dances successful. A Thanksgiving social and dance was held, and a fine representation was present. We’re sure everyone had a fine time. Our Gymnasium Class, which is always in for fun, entertained the other classes of the Night School on Valentine’s eve, and when we say that Miss Stoner and Director Hamerschlag were there to join in the enjoyment of the evening, you can understand that the time passed only too quickly. This class is now preparing for a luncheon to be held at the Fort Pitt Hotel. The dance to be held shortly after Easter is for all the Night Classes, and we believe there will be a go xl representation at that time. As a class we acquired an amazing amount of knowledge and at the same time succeeded in enjoying ourselves immensely. It is not with a feeling of regret that we should part, but with a deep feeling of thanks for what each and every teacher has done for us, a sense of gratitude for all privileges allowed us, a desire to do our best at whatever we undertake, and with a song of “ Aufwiederschen.” Page Thirty-eight THE TUESDAY EVENING DANCING CLASS MIS is only the second year that the girls of the Margaret Morrison School have had the privilege of entering this class in Folk Dancing and Gymnastics. It is largely due to Miss Stoner’s magnetism and ingenuity that this is one of the most popular courses open to Night Students. Aside from the jolly good times, we have ample proof that the exercise is beneficial and healthful. The play, “A Royal Runaway,” which this class is preparing to stage, promises to be a sure success. The cast, consisting of the Misses Logan, Bollman, Rubenstein, Hargrave, DeMatty, Moss, Bcndot, Hasley, McKenzie and Mrs. Forman, arc trying their very l est to make this play a credit to the Tuesday Evening Dancing Class. Miss Howley makes a competent stage manager, and all the other members of the class are doing what they can to make the play a success. This is the only class of the night school that extends its social affairs throughout the summer. Mention T. N. D. C. picnic, corn roasts, chicken and waffle suppers, trips to Camp Louise and Heinz’s, and the majority of the girls enrolled in this class will cry, “We were there!” A crowd of these girls spent two week ends at Camp Louise, and had a glorious time. They fail to understand why more of the girls do not take advantage of the privileges offered them on this lovely-farm. As the time draws near for the close of this school term, we trust that the bond of friendship will be so woven around the hearts of the students of the T. D. N. C. that this comradeship will be everlasting. Page Thirty-nine •? Margarkt Morrison Carnroir School- -Juniors I'IiOIO liv Itr.oVw. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS Grace Gordon Searici-it Golda McClelland .

These years have seen great developments in buildings and equipment, in student enrollment, in faculty and courses of study, and indeed in all the material and instructional resources of a great technical institution. Indeed, so much has been accomplished that it scarcely seems possible that our existence has been limited to ten brief years. With all this growth and development we are just at the threshold of our possibilities. An educational institution means something more than buildings and equipment, something more than student enrollment and organization, something more than faculty and courses of study. Behind all these visible assets and welding them together into a real educational force must be a strong, active and pervading ideal, which is the expression of the inner life of the institution. It is toward the development of this inner life of Tech that the energies of both faculty and students in the next few years should be devoted. We have accomplished something in this direction—but much remains to be done. Upon Tech men, both alumni and students, must fall the chief responsibility for this development. Your interest and your loyalty to Alma Mater demand it. We must measure up to this responsibility. Yours sincerely, John Hopkin Leete. Page Fifty-two WChe ' b£ stle =?=fV?J5 =Z.

Page Sixty-three DAY SENIOR CLASS HISTORY T was with no little pride and elation that we, who had weathered the storms of three winters, registered in September and became known to the world as SKNIORS. We felt the part and tried to look it. The goal was only two semesters away and then ----------. Already June loomed up before us and we could sec the captains of industry clambering over each other in eager desire for our services. Oh. those happy days of embryo Seniordom. For three years we had wondered and speculated on how it felt to be on the top rung of the ladder and here we were calmly and placidly viewing the herd from our exalted position. The Fall Festival was attended to, matters of Plebe discipline were passed upon with wonderful solemnity, the faculty was properly impressed as to our importance, and still we looked for other worlds to conquer. The Senior coat, emblem of superiority, was a child of our imagination; the Beanery issue, lying heavily on our hands, was disposed of with true Senior diplomacy. Days lengthened into weeks, and weeks into months. The mid-semester exams were passed in a blaze of glory, the holidays arrived and fond parents and doting friends listened wide-eyed and open-mouthed to Senior views on worldwide topics. Came the Fra of Pictures. Carnegie’s finest must needs be snapped for the Thistle, Papa and Mamma must have views of sons artistically draped about alternators or cranking gas engines, fond sweethearts must be supplied with snapshots of dignified grads-to-be in spick and span class coals. Again the mighty bore of exams—this time the mid-year’s—and once more professors learned things that they had never suspected. Inspection week came and passed, leaving us with tired feelings, and our thoughts turned toward the Prom. There, in the mad swirl, we hearkened back to the time when we as Juniors, in uncomfortable attire, wooed Terpsichore for the first time on such a scale. We’re on the last lap now. June is staring us in the face and the realization is dawning upon us that in barely a month we will be out in the cold, cruel world eking out our living, alone and unassisted. Already the siren calls of infant industries arc ringing in our ears and oftentimes, as the days glide by, visions flash before our eyes, and we sec ourselves as successful men of the world. Shall we succeed? How can we do otherwise? After four years in the environment of Tech we have forgotten the meaning of the words “give up.” “Build better” is our motto. So, good-bye old Tech, school that made us what we are, may we linger long upon this old planet and contribute, each in his little way, to the things that make life more agreeable. S. W. A.

He stands highest in his classes (he is only six feet four), but why shouldn't he, since he comes from Hastings I ligh School and Upsala College.

In pure optimism he is unexcelled. “ Well, boys, I'm getting along fine now, got all my R’s up to F’s; one more re- and they will all be P's.

The former is the cause of his being such a great favorite with the Maggie Murphs of the Soho Baths. Of grave concern to him has been his suit case, which is always being hid by some unknown scoundrel. Ashes objects strenuously when ashes are placed in his suit case, claiming that the old adage, “dust to dust does not appeal to his sense of humor. After all, hopes are held out that he will amount to more than his name would cause one to surmise. Harry D. Balsinger . . Ebensburg, Pa.

Pittsburgh, Pa. Civil Engineering Glee Club (4); Civil Engineering Society Immediately after the initial counting of noses in our Sophomore year, we found Mother serenely occupying her pedestal in our collection of notables. “Mother earned the right to the pedestal by her unswerving devotion to that grand indoor sport, 'leaching School,” in which sport she still dabbles (a class of dusky lined maidens on the hill), several nights per C- k, at so much a dab. Besides, the pedestal is a fine place to lead the variously pitched renditions of We’re Coming and Say, Boys, We’ll Never Get Drunk Again. Mother is one of the original Cascaret Twins, they who work while we sleep. Sidney Domovs . . . Minneapolis, Minn.

Since his real name does not in any way resemble his nick-name, or his appearance-bes| eak the anarchistic type, some may wonder how he received this name. 11 ere is the explanation. During the green stage year of 1911 in the course of a debate between his classmates concerning anarchists, one of the speakers, knowing that Annie was from Russia, jokingly pointed him out as a representative of that type. Till this day his nickname sticks. Annie is a very active member of the Chess Club, as well as the Crucible.

Especially adept at wrecking the “lab , he was elected to the presidency of the Crucible Club, and succeeded in holding one meeting during his term, which is saying a whole lot for that bunch of chemists. Especial mention should be made of his membership in the “ Phalanx,” founded during the Niagara Falls trip in his Junior year. This fact alone leaves no possible doubt of his future success—some day.

It is to be deplored that he did not develop his latent football ability earlier than in his Senior year, when, in the memorable Commercial-Mechanical battle, he tore such holes in the quaking line of the Commercials. Even if he did drop the ball, the hole he made was worth seeing. Dutch has been one of the shining examples of the possibility of a man’s being a good student and yet popular with his classmates. Walter N. Flanagan . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Media n ical Etigineering A. S. M. E. Student Branch Beneath that serious brow lurks a genius for inventing the maximum of mischief per unit of time. After spending three years in keeping life lively in school, during the last year he devoted his energies—while not eating lunch—to abstracting class dues from his unfortunate classmates. He is said to be as wise as he looks, which is putting it strongly. Perhaps it is the heavy artificial aids to vision which he wears in front of the windows of his soul that cause such an appearance of judicial wisdom. His love for cats is exceeded only by his love for experimenting. IIis demise is likely to be spectular, accompanied by a young earthquake. Albert A. Frey . . Pittsburgh, Pa., N.S.

I. T. and was brought to that illustrious institution. Owing to a mistake on the part of the authorities, who thought that he was applying for admission in 1921, Gibby became a student at Tech, and stuck despite all. This illustrates one of his foremost qualities and virtues. Above all he is a sticker, and although by no means slow, he takes nothing for granted. Never does he open a valve without knowing what it controls. In work or in play, he does his best and his best is not dependent upon his size. Don T. Gleason . . . Linesville, Pa.

Many started, but few remain. A mere handful of the original class is left, yet these men are the more able to tell the tale of the Night Science Class of '15. For those who have fallen by the wayside on account of utter neglect of duty, or of failure to exert a sufficient will power and determination. we can entertain only thoughts of regret; to those who have been called to other climes by the nature of their employment, we extend wishes for success; to those who have answered the chimes of wedlock, we offer congratulations; and the class still retains pleasant recollections of those who have been called by death and although gone from our midst, their names can never be forgotten. The “survival of the fittest ” who have striven to acquire an education which will better prepare them for entrance into “the dazzling sunlight, the deafening din and tumultuous whirl of the manufacturing world, prove by their example that graduation from a Night Technical School is a possibility, if one realizes that “fame waits not on our bidding” and that “one must labor to win a prize. To the Founder, and to the Board of Trustees we desire to publicly express our sincere gratitude for making the Night School a possibility. Our graduation is in a large measure made possible by the untiring efforts of the faculty, who braved the winter’s blasts to give of their knowledge to so small a number of students. To the students of the Night Science School, and to those who contemplate entering its gates, the Night Class of 1915 would say. “Where’s there a will, there’s a way,” and graduation is made possible for those who realize that “The heights by great men reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept, Were toiling upwards in the night.

Simpson Stukeman NIGHT COURSE IN COMMERCIAL ENGINEERING A two years program of night courses is offered by the Commercial Engineering Department to students who are graduates of colleges or technical schools of approved grade, or who present the required credentials and show special qualifications for undertaking the work. This program of courses is intended to be of special value to those whose ambitions point to business managerships and other executive positions. In the new leadership in commerce that this country is soon to take there is an important place for the commercial engineer—the man who can make products commercially profitable, who can profitably utilize in commerce the established industrial, mercantile and financial agencies. A dominating purpose in offering this program of work is to help toward such achievement and utilization. Accordingly in all courses wherever practicable emphasis is placed on how to make use of facilities, institutions and establishments rather than on their organization, management and technique. For example, in the courses on banking and insurance and on transportation no attempt is made to study the internal workings of banks, insurance companies and railways. Those who wish to become bankers, insurance men, or railway experts must seek instruction elsewhere; those who wish to know how best to make use of banking, insurance and traffic facilities will find help in these courses. Again, to make competent advertisers, salesmen, and accountants is not aimed at in the advertising, selling and accounting courses. All that is expected is to help students to a knowledge of these subjects sufficient for the needs of a good enterpriser or manager. The students now taking these courses are graduates of representative schools and colleges. Among others the following institutions are represented: Carnegie Institute oe Technology, Baltimore Polytechnic Institute, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Cornell and Princeton. Commerce is inefficient and distribution is wasteful—a statement that is indisputable. One may hope, however, that the night classes in Commercial Engineering are preparing themselves for more effective service in remedying these conditions. Page One Hundred F?ohrKosfe :§ y y-1 Page One Hundred and One e 'Vbutlc THE DESIGN SCHOOL COMPARISON of the work and the working conditions in the Department of Architecture this year and in former years shows a number of marked improvements. Of these we shall comment on two: increase in enrollment, and the increased self-reliance with which our students undertake their tasks. The increase in enrollment is important because it stands for an increasingly favorable estimate of our work by the outside professional world; and because it assures us that we will have a number of students great enough to establish a strong esprit du corps, and to furnish a group of men of more than average ability. Many are called to do honorable and useful work and only a chosen few will do brilliant work. We must have the many in order that the few may be found. It is not an exaggeration to say that this department has established its work on a level not reached by others of its kind in this country in twice the time ours has been in operation. The swiftness of this result has been largely due to a lavish expenditure of pains and labor by our faculty. They have at times carried the department bodily along. Such extraordinary efforts could not and should not be long protracted. It is with the greatest satisfaction that we see our students more and more distinctly able to go it alone, and to depend confidently on their own resources as well as on the guidance and aid of their instructors.

Schultz Page One Hundred and Seven DESIGN SENIOR CLASS HISTORY K find it a difficult matter to realize that four years have passed since we entered within the portals of dear old Tech. The years have vanished so quickly that it seems only a few short months since we first donned our smocks and began our life of charettes—an architect’s life you know, of course, is made up of one d------charctte after another. The journey has certainly been a difficult one, fraught with trials and tribulations; but now from the proud position of expectant graduates which we have at last attained, we can contemplate with no small degree of pleasure and satisfaction, our triumphs over the many difficulties with which we have been confronted. Naturally, retrospective thoughts take possession of us as the day of graduation approaches, and the years which we have spent in this institution pass in review before our minds, problems met and conquered, life long friendships made and education acquired. However, in a short resume such as this, made brief by necessity, we cannot hope to give an account of or even enumerate all the activities and events which make up the history of our class. Such things must remain in the memories only. But, does any man need be reminded of what he did? Surely not! Each member has contributed his share, and now, as a class, we can look back over a career that has attracted attention from all sides by its scholarship and fair play as well as activity in athletics, music, society and all the kindred joys of college life. One especially noteworthy feature regarding our class, is the ability shown by the fellows to stand the pace. Ambition and stick-to-itiveness are most laudable qualities and go hand in hand; the former cannot materialize without the latter. This ability to stick was tried severely during the several years and the small percentage of our original enrollment which has fallen by the wayside shows that only a few were found wanting. We do not wish to give the impression that the class has been a perfect one. Mankind is not infallible, and so looking back over our school career, we can see where we have been lacking on several occasions, but we have always stood for the best, and our ideals have been the highest—a larger interest in our college life and the installation of lasting love for our Alma Mater. Regarding our future we will only say that we shall earnestly endeavor to demonstrate our worth, and if possible to reflect credit upon the institution from which we shall soon depart. Its influence, we hope, shall remain with us throughout our lives, inspiring us to live in a manner consistent with its standards. We shall ever retain a sincere regard for the instructors who have worked so sincerely in our behalf and helped us along the hard paths to a higher education. The faculty has undergone considerable change the past year, and several new instructors have been added to the teaching staff. This infusion of new blood can not but place our school on the pinnacle of excellence. We shall always retain a profound respect for the man whose noble mind and unparalleled philanthropy are responsible for the conception and existence of the Institute which rendered our education possible. And now we leave this institution grateful to our Alma Mater for the many pleasant experiences and the friendship formed within her protecting walls. Will not these years always live for us as perhaps our happiest? Page One Hundred and Eight M The Thistle — T7 9 5 DESIGN SENIOR OFFICERS R. K. Fleming . W. R. Weigler W. H. Kirciienbowkr L. H.

His life in Tech has Ih cii a sweet rosy dream until he began to get ready to graduate.

During his “freshness” he was second in the plebe checker league. Messer was ever ready to boast of his rebel country. Mischief amusement in the drafting room was argument on any subject you might suggest and on many you could not suggest. He was looked up to as a remarkable statistician of the present kindergarten war abroad, which he avers must be a victory for the Kaiser. Therefore Messer has ambitions of building great monuments. 11. Carl is a loyal member of the Tech Architectural Club and of course of the Southern organization.

NIGHT HISTORY OF 1915 It was a dark and stormy night on that memorable evening known in history as the fifteenth of October, in the year of our Lord Nineteen Hundred and Fourteen. The old guard of the Night Design Class thought it wise and fitting that the officers for the incoming school year be elected. After much heralding of this now established idea, the new men were persuaded to lay aside their most pressing work so that the all important business meeting could be called. We met in one of the spacious lecture rooms, and helped ourselves freely to the cigars and tobies which someone had forethought to provide. When the atmosphere had become blue, and the last tardy student had been received into our council, one old guard arose and called the meeting to order. From the noble lips of another we were impressed with the high object of our class. 1'he election of officers followed to the satisfaction of all, and the new president assumed charge of the meeting. The class has since made rapid strides in the pursuance of its various duties; and with much confidence we look forward to the success which shall crown its earnest endeavors. G. H. G.

We arc supposed to have carved a niche in the Hall of Fame, and in it the Class Historian is called upon to write a little verse. But the class of '15 asks for no niches nor monuments. We merely wish to assert that we have won our laurels fairly and have run a good lap in the relay race that C. I. T. is running with all collegedom; for the History of the ('lass of T5 is merely a history of a development at Tech, a development which five years from now will be far beyond that of today. We have aspired to improve over the classes of former years, and we now feel that we have succeeded in our aspirations. Like all things, we had a beginning. We are now nearing the end. We have fought a brave fight and we will pass on with our flags still flying. Our Class President, Douglas Orms, has led us through a very successful year, He had been ably assisted by our deceased Vice-President, S. F. Fry. H. H. Kreider served in the capacity of Secretary. The first important event of the year was a dance given by the Upper (Mass-men to welcome the lowly Plcbes. Here the Plcbcs danced the Maxixe and the Fox Trot as ably as they had waltzed out to East Liberty the first day of school. MMie next event of the year was the smoker tendered to the Upper Classmen by these self same Plebes. This was an event which will be remembered for many years to come. Then came the Senior Banquet. Here the Seniors made merry until the wee small hours of the morning. The Upper Class boasts of two football heroes in the persons of “Dutch Kreider and “ Vi Ilian Parke. Our Mandolin Club representatives were “ Mike Sweeny and “Bob Price. In leaving this dear old place, we wish to thank the Faculty for having borne with us these three years. We also extend our thanks to the very few members of our class who upheld our honors by preparing their lessons now and then. At last, having assumed that we are sufficiently saturated with industrial knowledge, we have decided to graduate and foist ourselves upon an unsuspecting public. With the Diploma on our hip. sorrowfully we depart. We breathe one delicate sigh; we cast one last long lingering look behind. This concludes a brief narrative of some of the more important phases of our career at Tech. It cannot be truly called a class history. Our life within the institution is but the foundation, and the history of our class is still in the making. The three years have passed quickly, but let us hope the training we have received here will enable us to face the world as true, representative Carnegie men. J. S. Thomas.

Muchinc Construction Student Senate (2 ; Social Committee (2), Drafting Club Phi Theta Xi The original Bum, and married at that, spent more time in the club room and the telephone booth than in the classroom. A quiet fellow but always ready with a good word for the other man. Ray served a year on the Student Senate. Some day he will be a prosperous fruit grower in Florida. Watch for “Bollinger Oranges” on the market or rather “Bollinger Lemons. ” Joseph E. Bott .... McKeesport, Pa. Foundry Homestead Nigh Did anyone mention McKeesport? Joe is a native of that place and he certainly realized it in every way when he would journey out in the rocker hot touted street cars in the wee hours of the morning after the Pa-Fo-Fo-Ma banquets. Arriving in time for breakfast, Joe would partake and leave for an 8:30. Joe has been one of the real students in the class and will l e greatly missed by those who knew him intimately. Edwin L. Bruggemann . Zanesville, Ohio Building, Construction Building Chib Golden Rod is a long lanky inhabitant of the Buckeye State. He has very good eve sight especially in picking out fair damsels. Although a preacher’s son, he quite frequently indulges in “I'll betcha a nickel.” He is an active member of the Building Club, and a chap of sterling qualities who can hold his own among others. Fred J. Bueiiler .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Electric Equipment and Construction B K. Club; Secretary Avo Club (3) Fritz Buchler, the guy with the concave walk, will always turn to look at a Ford, hence the nickname Ford Fanatic.” His never ending succession of foolish questions has been a source of constant worry to his instructors, while at the same time a source of amusement to his classmates. As secretary of the Avo Club his notes were kept very neatly and efficiently—at home. However by application and close attention to his work, lie won a scholarship at the end of his Plcbc year. Fred has a big heart and always wears a happy smile. We know that he will be successful in whatever lie undertakes. Page One Hundred and Thirty-five Reading, Pa. Charles J. Busiionc. Building Construction Thistle Board (3): Student Senate (3); B. K. Club Opheleum Bush comes to us from the old Dutch city of Reading, Pa. I le is known to the ladies as the “ Kittle Count, ” and really he looks quite distinguished with his verdant growth, of moustache. When he sallies forth in the halls or on the campus, “ Hello Bush ” is all we hear, and “Wlioop Chawlie expresses well his light-hearted, jovial nature. His occupation at present as a member of the student Senate is to keep the hoys in order; and as a member of the Building Construction Club, to hammer concrete theories into the wooden heads of some of his friends. Ci.ifton A. Coulter . . . Apollo, Pa. Electric Equipment and Construction B. K. Club; Vice President Avo Club (3) Baldy Coulter blew in from Apollo, Pa., the town behind the billboard, just about three months late. Some of us wondered who the old man was, when we first saw him busily engaged in performing the first experiment in Physics Lab. We have been told that after wrecking his brother’s steam laundry in Eugene, Oregon, by mixing sodium with water, which he thought would react as follows Na + H. O C, H,0 H + Ag, Coulter drifted around the world and landed in Tech. His pleasing personality has gained for him many friends while in school. He is a man of high ideas and set purposes, being always willing to help a fellow student in distress. This is evidenced by the fact that he is a laboratory assistant in the Chemistry Department. C. A. is at the head of his class, as well as being vice president of the Avo Club. D. Latimer Davies .... Eric, Pa. Biiilding Construction Chairman Entertainment Committee (3); Building Construction Club Opheleum Dear old “Sleepy Dave with his “Great day in the morning,” hails from some where around Lake Erie. In all his studies at Tech he has never solved the problem of getting to 8:30 classes on time. Although he never has much to say: he does things. He was Chairman of the Entertainment Committee, anti a member of the Building Construction Club. In his life at Tech we have found hint a prince among fellows. Sumner Elias Fry . . Harrisburg, Pa. Machine Construction Student Assembly; Vice President Class (3) Opheleum Preparatory to his attending C. I. T., Sumner K. Fry attended the public schools of Harrisburg, and there he graduated front a private preparatory school. Fry was always considered a leader among his fellows, which was on account of his popularity and keen interest in affairs about school. He died just as he was about to graduate from the college of his choice. Page One Hundred and Thirty-six Walter S. Giles .... Pittsburgh, Pa.

If “C stands for procrastination, why that is his middle name. One of the stars in the Electric Shop, Jakey Giles why did you continually insist on yelling at the top of your voice, “For the love of Mike. We are here to state that Jake is some star with the women also. He took a special course in mimeo-graphy his llrst and second year until Dean Connclley dropped him from the roll. We know Fat will make good with his genial spirit and superb knowledge of engines. G. W. Huston .... Lisbon, Ohio Building Construction Building Club: Student Senate Xi Sigma Upsilon Pledge Pcdie is the small man in his class, in stature not in brains, a serious minded fellow with not much to say, but a lot of do. He is at present serving his term on the Student Senate, and trying to make good legislation for the school. He is also a member of the Building Club, and is interested in the general student welfare. Lewis B. Johnston . . . Reynoldsville, Pa. Drafting Track; Club Room Committee Opheleum This is Lew Johnston, better known to society as Dip, which happens to be an abbreviation for Dope. Although we never saw Dip use a needle, we know there is something wrong. He was in fair condition until he entered politics and had to take his week ends in Washington. Lew is also a great pool shark and poker player. “Why that tired feeling?” If Lewis came to chemistry at 8:30, Mr. Lcighou would faint; and wc would have to carry him home on a shutter. 11 is one ambition in life is to have his name emblazoned on the front of some hardware store. James M. Keister . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Forging Athletic Board of Control (2) (3) Jim never missed a baseball game in all his three years, and he has the reputation of being the greatest fiend in the whole school on this subject.

A iach i n c Con struct! on Central High Just whistle! and Doggie will be right on the job. Talk to him on Tuesday morning; and you will doubtless hear what happened at the burlesque theatre the previous night. Doggie has been known for three years as the “Burlesque Barometer.” More questions, reasonable and otherwise, were asked by Doggie in the class room than by any other three students in the history of the school. “What's that” is his prize expression. Yet with his few eccentricities he is one of the dependable fellows, and we expect a bright future for him. Walter Edwin Ketcham . Mt. Washington, Pa. Electrical Equipment and Construction Walter, the heart breaker, entered school with enough pep to get him six degrees. He is a P. M. on all questions relating to the fairer sex, which is shown by his fussing activities and his love for country hotel wall paper ties. If the word switch was mentioned in or out of the electrical department, a mental picture of a cute little thing with masses of golden locks dashed upon Walter’s radio-active mind. Freeport and Ell-wood City are his favorite summer resorts. It is hoped that Ketch will soon meet “the girl,” and thereafter put aside childish things so that he may concentrate on his life's work at which he is bound to succeed. Henry H. Kreider . . . Annvillc, Pa. Machine Construction Football (2) (3); Baseball (1) (2) (3); Basketball (2) (3); Secretary and Treasurer Class (3); Clubroom Committee Opheleum Dutch Kreider is one of the most popular football men that ever strode the Tech gridiron. Old Dutch was some student, for he was an enthusiastic supporter of the Saturday Evening Study Club. His three years at Tech, however have not been able to correct his tendency to be strong for “ Votes for Women.” Germany Kreider, while serving as Secretary of the Senior Class, has always had a tendency to memorize the minutes of each meeting. Dutch’s services will certainly be missed on our football squads in years to come. By the way, his home is at Annville, Pa. Everybody welcome. John 13. Lovell .... Sharon, Conn. Foundry Tartan Representative (2); New England Club Phi Theta Xi Johnny found that Sharon, Conn., was not big enough for him; so he migrated to Pittsburgh, and Tech never received a better man. Johnny is one of those quiet fellows full of excellent ideas and advice. When you hear that familiar “Oh Buddy” in the hall, you can be sure he is in the near vicinity. Spring Step Johnny will make good, for Mr. Dosey says he is a real moldcr. Page One Hundred and Thirty-eight James M. Miller .... Chicago, III. Drafting Student Senate (3) Ophclcum Red Miller is a Chautauqua blaze. He is best known by his brilliant hair, and his loud hilarious laugh which has been known to break up many a Gaycty show as well as other ones of reputable character. Red is a fusser of i he first degree, specializing in the suburban types, with which he says lie is most impressive. Red informs us that he will be with its next year as a “post graduate. Daniel Perry Murphy . Schenectady, N. Y. Forging Secretary Student Activities Board; Class President (1) (2); President Student Assembly; Sennachie Ophclcum Danny, also called Chinaman for certain reasons which will become only too evident if his picture is looked at, loves his little parties and his girl. We have heard that she is called Madeline. In his first and second years he was president of his class, and as a crowning glory he was made president of the Student Assembly for his dignified Senior year. This coupled with his other activities enumerated above has made his sojourn at Tech of much credit both to himself and to the school at large. Douglas Orms .... Johnstown, Pa. Power Machine Operation Class President (3) Dug, you will make an electrician if you get a chance and the proper surroundings. You know you “can't always sometimes tell.” “Dug has a wild ambition to make a merry-go-round out of one of Mr. Ambrose’s pet demonstration engines. The 1914-1915 Senior Class had a most efficient Class President in Dug Orms, and few people will realize the excellent work that he did during his term. And he is some fusser, too. John Myers Orr . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Electric Equipment and Construction President of the Avo Club (3); B. K. Club; Industries Minstrels: Cheer leader (3); Glee Club During his two years in Pittsburgh High Pete, alias Martin, learned to his dismay that the girls offered a greater attraction than the curriculum. Hence his departure and consequent arrival at Tech. Pete could easily qualify as a section boss on a railroad. This was shown in the Class Day Exercises in 1914 when Pete was commander-in-chief of the Industries Army in the Pageant. Possessing a very agreeable personality, Martin soon became popular in school circles, which fact is emphasized by his appointment as cheer leader for the year 1914-1915, by being elected president of the Avo Club, a member of the Glee Club, and an end man in the Industries Minstrels. John is a wide-awake fellow, and we therefore have no doubt but that he will succeed in his career and become a leader among men. Page One Hundred and Thirty-nine Kdward Lee Parsons . .

He has always been the pretty little boy of the class, and you can’t mistake his favorite expression, “Dead Bird. Yes, Eddie with his big heart made a very considerate president of the Senate. His hearty laugh and ever-ready joke have been the life of many an hour in the club room. Tomas Ruiz Pozo . . Santiago, Cuba Power Machine Operation Pozo came to us front Santiago, Cuba, and has been an excellent student. Although handicapped by the tricky English language, Pozo has certainly made some unique talks from time to time in various classes. Pozo will be one of the Tech graduates who will go to another part of the world, and spread the good word that Tech is THE school. Walter G. Prack . . .

Every damsel seems to fall for him, and he is very liberal with his “She’s some Jane.” lb is a member of the Building Construction Club, and has given considerable time to school activities. Cutcy is an all around good fellow with a happy smile for every one. Robert J. Price . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Drafting Student Welfare Committee; Mandolin Club (2) (3) Phi Theta Xi Bob Price comes to us from the heights of Mount Washington. Before entering Tech he was a student at the Pittsburgh Academy. When not too busy the tuneful twinkle of his mandolin was heard at many student functions, for he was among the most regular members of the Mandolin Club, lie was also one of the most clever Club Boom Piano Hammerers. We will always remember him for his sunny good nature and spirit. Page One Hundred and Forty t Charles Oscar Roessing, “Doc,” Pittsburgh, Pa. Industrial Teachers Course President Industrial Teachers Club (4) Charley, better known as the Hying Dutchman, comes from the Allegheny High, where he was taught how to handle left-handed monkey wrenches, square circles and turn an emery wheel. To perfect himself in these particular lines, he entered the school of Applied Industries at Tech, in 1909, and received his diploma from Dad White in 1911. In 1912 he entered the Teachers’ Industrial Course in order to get a good line up in “ BlulT” to he able to impart toothers what he actually doesn’t know himself. Douglas Smith...............................Luke, Md.

Merkel Sperry . . . Reading, Pa. Electric Equipment and Construction Avo Club: B. K. Club Mike gets a box of pretzels each week from Reading, the town with the wooden curbstones. He is a peroxide blond, built like a Methodist Church. His one great failing is the pronouncing of “V’s” like “W's” as, “woltmeter and other convenient devices.” Sperry's adventures with the school moving pictures far exceed the ‘‘Exploits of Elaine.” However Sperry is not a shirker. He is conscientious in his work, and always on the square. Everyone who knows him is proud to call him a friend. We can see that he will successfully meet and overcome all obstacles in life. John F. Sweeny, Jr. . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Machine Construction Track; Mandolin Club (1) (2) (3): Choral Club (2); Publicity Bureau John F. Sweeny, more commonly known as Mike because of the decidedly German name, has a laugh which closely resembles the roar of a lion who may be heard roaring in English quite frequently. He also plays the part of a horse when the Musical Clubs have a concert. In this capacity he serves very well. His artistic temperament manifests itself during English recitation by the many sketches in his book. 11 is masterpiece is a sketch which portrays a lunch originated in the Beanery. John F. Sweeny entered this school in the year 1912 and immediately juni| ed into the school activities by making the Musical Clubs. He started out on second mandolin and is now playing the mandola. He also went out for track. He is very well liked by his fellows, always lending a willing hand, and wearing a jovial smile. Page One Hundred and Forty-one Ralph L. Swisshelm . . . Wilkinsburg, Pa. Social Committee (2) Phi Theta Xi Within five minutes after you first meet Swissy, the original “Hard Guy” of liis class, you know he comes from Wilkinsburg. Mr. Taylor repeatedly lauds Swissy for Ins excellent research work in the Forge laboratory. Tech will always remember this compact little forgeman as the “prize bullcr” of the Industries school. For a little fellow he has a big heart and everybody will miss him. Joseph S. Thomas . . . Crafton, Pa. Drafting Draftsman Club, ('lass Historian (3) Jo was usually known as Fat, and his reputation is better at Tech than it is at home where he has revolutionized school methods of teaching. Fat is such an authority on Math that he has always proved a stumbling block to mathematics instructors. As class historian, he has done admirably. He has in addition shown traces of enthusiasm along poetical lines, so vote a straight Thomas ticket when you get the chance. Raymond R. Thompson . .

Ray originated the Bellevue strawberry sociables. It is said that these occasions were perfectly nice and safe affairs for all juveniles. James R. Vernon . . . Fort Wayne, Ind. Building Construction Treasurer Student Assembly (2); Student Senate (1); Building Construction Club Opheleum Out of the beautiful little city of Fort Wayne, Ind., comes this handsome specimen of American manhood. He is a loyal son of Tech, and has worked faithfully for the school since he entered its portals. Almost a married man, his favorite saying is, “Don’t tempt me, I’m married.” But he is as kind-hearted and liberal as “ Uncle Andy” himself. He has already made his debut to the working world, and will shortly continue his career of success and achievement . Good luck, dear old fellow, and may happiness, joy, and peace be yours throughout your life. Page One Hundred and Forty-two 'Oye 'Z cstie Edwin M. Wagner . . . Braddock, Pa.

Me is the busiest little chap in the school, often trying to find some unknown chemical that chemists have worried over for generations. When not in the chemistry laboratory he is in his room writing to a certain Jane in West Middlesex. On the whole he is a very interesting little chap and is well liked by all those who have had the honor to meet him. M. R. Bennett . . . Piedmont, W. Va. Night Chemistry “Twenty for a nickel” coming as often as it does from “Sally” indicates that he is a shrewd financier as well as economist. Coming from the primitive feud district of West Virginny, he is able to get along with the simplest, but he appreciates the big city just the same. Sally's favorite diversion is sleeping in Chcm. lab., but the explosions which often happen under his careful care serve as good agitators. Good luck to Sally; may he discover the philosophers stone. Frank R. Ebert . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Night Sheet Metal Among the thirty graduates from this night class which started out with a couple hundred members, Ebc stands out as representing the Sheet Metal Department. Frank is apparently of a philanthropic frame of mind, for lie is continually warning his classmates of real or supposed dangers with his “Mind your step.” We expect t hat Sheet Metal will become one of the fine arts under F.

J. would have you believe that he is some fusser, for he is continually pulling such ones as this Somebody else, the moon, and I;” but we don’t believe so much of this, for all of us know just how much time a night student with classes from 7:30 to 10:30 has for the moon. However we know Bill will make up for lost time, once he gets his freedom this May. G. A. Gano............................Pittsburgh, Pa.

But he was not aware of the fact that everyone knew that lie never had either. But everybody is used to his ravings by this time. It must not Ik- forgotten that he hails from the wilds of Woods Run.

Our “ Kaiser” is some cheer leader, and when he starts a cheer his forty-four centimeter voice may be heard a mile away. That nauseous odor that sometimes fills the hall is not burning rubber, as you would think that it is. No! That is the Kaiser enjoying his pipe, which may account for his strong voice. Arthur P. Stahl . Pittsburgh, Pa., N. S. Night Mechanical Drafting Thistle Board (4); Night Draftsman’s Club, Treasurer (4) As we gaze upon the picture of one with such a noble countenance, we ask ourself if that attitude was obtained in the four years that he spent at Tech. If you want to know about this, just ask Stahl. He is one always ready to suggest, act, and answer questions along most any line. He has been a willing worker for all he has received, as you can see from his high forehead and true blue eyes. Another great accomplishment for him is his existence on the 1915 Thistle Board, which could be filled so well by no other person. Joseph A. Stein . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Night Drafting Class President (4); Thistle Board (3) (4); Night Draftsman’s Club, President (4) Delta Sigma Whoever dubbed him “Mother” surely hit it right, for he has mothered his class from start to finish. But when it comes to talking, there are very few mothers who have anything on him. It is rumored that he intends to enter the Margaret Morrison School next year in order to take cooking lessons in hopes of becoming a bachelor. But public opinion would change if we could only see whom he talks to over the phone every Thursday night for an hour or two. Charles A. Sylvester . Pittsburgh, Pa. Night Drafting Tartan Rep.; Night Draftsman’s Club; White Friars No, he is not a big broad shouldered youth; but this does not seem to have any effect on Chase. Why should he worry, the fair sex fall for him just the same. If lie were to attend school as regular as he attends Tango dances and other Dan-sants he would be the brightest star of his class. But in spite of this failing, he is no slouch in any of his studies. Page One Hundred, and Forty-five John J. Schmidt . Pittsburgh, Pa., N. S.

Page One Hundred and Forty-six Xhc 'Cbi'Stle FOURTH YEAR NIGHT CLASS HISTORY m i the opening of the school year of 1911 a number of ambitious young men began to lay the foundations of their future careers. From the very beginning the destiny of this class was marked along the lines of great activity in all school life until now they have attained the proud position of expectant graduates. The four years have passed very swiftly but we have studied hard and to good purpose. Many were the obstacles that obstructed the path in our fight for knowledge and position in life, but we have surmounted them all. It is true that in our long march we have lost many men, but we hope that they will realize their mistake and return to finish their different courses. It is with fond recollections that we recall the many social affairs held during the four years. Banquets, smokers, and dances helped us at different times to forget the drudgery of school work. But of all the social affairs, the Night Draftsman’s Club smoker, held in the Central building, December 18, 1914, deserves special mention as this was the best attended smoker ever held at Tech. And as the time draws near for us to say gowl-byc we wish to thank the different instructors who have helped us over the rough paths to a higher education. And to the Founder we owe a debt of gratitude, only payable by going out in the world and showing by our deeds the kind of men Carnegie Tech produces.

Carey Frank Fini.ey President Vice-President Secretary and Treasurer 7 artan Representative |HEN the new school year of 1914 opened it was quite evident that the Teachers Industrial Course is becoming one of the popular courses at Tech, judging by the number of new students that registered for the Plebe year. These men who just entered arc J j not men from two or three year High Schools, but men from good four year High Schools, and two of our men arc college graduates, one from Cornell, the other from University of Pittsburgh. With this kind of material to represent the Teachers Industrial Course in the future, we prophesy that Carnegie Tech will not only be proclaimed throughout the universe by its graduate Engineers, Tradesmen, Architects and Housewives, but that the teachers will contribute their share to its fame. Although few in number as compared to some of the other departments, we are endeavoring to make ourselves heard and seen through our various organized activities. During the year we have decided to hold a monthly banquet for the purpose of agitating a good social fellowship among the fellows, and at each banquet to have a good speaker talk on some topic relating to Industrial Education. Thus far we have had two banquets, one at the German Club when Dean Connelley spoke to us on the possibilities in “ Industrial Education;” the other at the Schcn-ley Hotel, when Professor Peters spoke on ‘‘Teaching as a Profession.” We have also organized a Literary Society for the purpose of training ourselves in public speaking, which is especially essential to a teacher. In this write-up the writer has certainly not given the history for this year in detail; he has only touched upon the most interesting parts. In conclusion, I wish to state that our past year has been decidedly successful and the future looks very promising, especially when we hear some hints from the Dean’s office alxmt marked improvements to be made, and newly prepared plans to be put in effect within the next year. We don’t know definitely what these plans arc, but we do know that they can be depended upon as something worth while.

Adams, who launched the project and has worked untiringly for its furtherance during the present season. This Scholarship is designed for entrance to the Day School, and it is hoped that the recipient may be found among the ranks of the night students, all of whom are worthy and several of whom will doubtless lx. glad of such an opportunity. The Association has ever in mind the interest of the night students of the school, and a sympathetic consideration for them in their sacrifices in obtaining the specialized training which they desire and need. It seems good to think that the founder of the schools—our own Mr. Carnegie—intended them for this very purpose—an opportunity for the less fortunate to receive the instruction which will better lit them in becoming efficient men and women; and this thought lends encouragement and inspiration to the ambitions of these students. The various gatherings during the winter have served their purpose in promoting fellowship and mutual assistance among the members, and have included: On October 17th. a luncheon and business meeting; a dance and Christmas sale on November 20th, the proceeds of which were devoted to the Scholarship Fund; in December, a meeting at which the moving pictures of the schools were shown; a theatre party on January 23rd; a “small and early dance on February 12th; on the 20th of March another luncheon and business meeting; a fancy dress party on the 9th of April; and on May 22nd a Saturday afternoon picnic in the country is scheduled, while the annual banquet and reception to 1915 graduates will be held during Commencement week. A number of the graduates appreciated also the opportunity which Camp Louise Carnegie afforded them for a little vacation in the country last summer, and expressed their appreciation by making the most of their opportunity. That the Association may prove a factor of considerable benefit in the life of the institution, both graduate and undergraduate, is its earnest hope and aim. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Edith A.

Griswold, '12 HIS year has been one of the most progressive that the Alumni Association has experienced since its organization. The organization is going through a period of evolution which will result in a more helpful and efficient body. That it is growing is evidenced by the fact that a very thriving chapter has been organized in Youngstown. This group has been in existence about two years and is now petitioning the general organization for a chapter. As the Constitution does not in any way provide for local organizations it is now being revised and will be presented to the Alumni for adoption some time before Commencement of this year. It is a good healthy sign when the graduates who are living away from Pittsburgh, out of touch with the Institution, remember their Alma Mater and wish to unite to do something for her. The Bulletin and the Luncheons have also developed this year and give every evidence of being more helpful to the Institute and to the Association than ever before. The Bulletin has been extended to include the Alumni Associations of the other schools in the group and has been as creditable a publication as that issued by any other College or University in the United States. It is now handled by a board of publication which consists of. two members of each Association. The Luncheons have been held regularly at the Fort Pitt Hotel on every other Wednesday of each month at 12 o’clock. The Dutch Room on the second Moor has been reserved for Tech men and the following speakers were invited as our guests and spoke at the conclusion of the luncheon: Director A. A. Hamcr-schlag, Dean J. II. Leete, Honorable Joseph Buffington, Professor A. H. Willett, Professor G. H. Follows, Professor S. S. Keller, Mr. A. W. Tarbell, Coach Walter Steffen, Coach Gayle Dull, Mr. Al. Wagner, Mr. J. H. McCulloch, Dr. W. L. Marks. This feature of the luncheon was originated this year and has increased the attendance to a very marked extent. The graduates seemed pleased to get into touch with the Institution through the members of the Administrative Staff and the Professors and to hear them speak where no notes or examinations are required. The social functions this year have been limited in number but strong in spirit. A dance was held in the early fall and another will probably be scheduled in the spring. The usual annual banquet will be held during Commencement week. Page One Hundred and Sixty-one e bistle THE APPLIED INDUSTRIES ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 1914-1915 OFFICERS William H. Ritts............... C.

Monks HE Applied Industries Alumni Association during the past year has been very active, and much good has been accomplished in furthering the interests of the graduates and the school. The annual banquet was held at the Fort Pitt Hotel on June 13, 13, 1914, at which time thirty-eight new members joined the association. The supper was a most enjoyable one both as to “cats,” songs and speeches. Professor Peters was toastmaster and speeches were made by the Director, Dean Connclley, Professor Morris, Mr. Pfouts, Mr. Hartman and others. Officers were elected and the new Constitution was put into effect. During the year, ten associate members were accepted into the association and honorary membership bestowed upon seventy-two friends of the school. The quarterly meetings of the association have been well attended and much enthusiasm has been shown in the work of the association. Two very enjoyable dances were held, and all of the members of the board are to be congratulated upon the fine spirit displayed, and good work accomplished in keeping together the graduates in periodical social gatherings. The Applied Industries Alumni Association co-operated this year with the Alumni Association of the Schools of Applied Science and Design in issuing a quarterly Bulletin and the numbers so far seen have been very creditable. It is the intention of the association to award several scholarships next year. Through the courtesy of the faculty, an office for the use of the association has been provided in the Industries Building. The association desires to thank all who have given their aid and encouragement to the work during the past and extends a glad hand of welcome to the graduates who will be with us in the near future.

We refer to the visit of our founder. Certainly it was a privilege to meet ham as we did. to near him, and to fed that we had come into Ctsonal contact with the man who t made Teth possible. Looking ahead through the vista of treats that will surely come-through endless lines of Plebes, and endless lines of Graduates, we ask what will differentiate those students from the fellows of this year of 1914-1915? And we can say that not from the stony coldness of a marble statue not ftom the barrenness and poverty of written words, do we get our conception of Andrew Carnegie. We have heard that toft, vibrant voice; we have seen those simple gestures that btsptak the warmth of has great heart; and we have his living message of democracy and service ringing in our ears. Above all we have heard those words: My heart it in the work Certainly this it an heritage for the fellows now in Tech, and mayhap in after yean toene of us may have the privilege of re-living those hours with a new generation of Tcchitcs. F. E. Foster '08, Graduate Manager We are glad to hear that Mr. Foster, a member of the first graduating class of Tech is to be Graduate Manager. Mr. Foster has traveled quite extensively since leaving Teth, anti we believe he it the man for the fob. The Bagpipe wiihct him success in hia new undertaking. The BAGPIPE, a monthly magazine devoted to affairs of the School of Applied Industries, is the out-growth of a desire of members of the Department of Printing to find expression in printed form. Realizing the advantage of the excellent equipment of the Printing Department for work of this nature, and the possibility of growth in a literary and artistic way, and the very evident need of an Organ to represent Industries School, the work of publishing the BAGPIPE was undertaken with the advent of 1915. It is distinctly a non-commercial affair. Being a product of the Department of Printing, its concern has been only with first costs—viz.: paper, ink and cuts, which arc charged to the Industries Assembly monthly, and all monies received from the sale of copies arc turned over to the Treasurer of the Assembly. So far, the sides have left a margin on the right side of the ledger; and inasmuch as the time of members of the Department of Printing, the Editorial Board and the Art Department, is gratuituously given, indications are that it will continue to grow typographically, artistically, and as a servant of a better and broader Tech. It has one aim—to build up Tech spirit and Tech institutions by eternally boosting things that arc GOOD—to keep a soft pedal on the hammer—and to live up to its name, which is both windy and noisy. Editorial Board:—C. M. Maguire, C. F. Peters, C. A. Parker. Art Department:—F. C. Crooks, V. V. Young. Much of its success is due to the hearty co-operation of Messrs. Gage, Farnsworth, Lcftwich, of the Printing Department, and the kindly encouragement of Dean Conncllcy and Mr. Hartman. Page One Hundred and Seven ty-lU'o 'Che 'Chi'Stie Page One Hundred and Seventy-three ATHLETICS AT CARNEGIE HE past year has brought many changes in the administration and coaching of our athletic teams, but we can safely say that the high standard that has always characterized Tech teams has been maintained thrughou 1. Perhaps the most important change from the standpoint of competitive athletics, was the securing of Coach Steffen to assume charge of the football candidates; and the opening of the training house, where the football men were cared for during and which now harbors our track team. It is needless to if the training house is to serve its purpose to the greatest possibilities, it is going to require the co-operation of students, and coaches. It should be the means of developing a spirit of unity and a bond of fellowship among our athletes, that will manifest itself on the playing field in the form of true sportsmen, and not sporting men. Being a member of a varsity squad, and placed at the training house, is an honor that carries with it, as most honors do, certain obligations, the fulfilling of which should be the goal of every individual who has the privilege of representing Carnegie Tech on the athletic field. Student sentiment should be such that the individual who failed to live up to the ideals of the real sportsmen by giving his best efforts to the team, would find that he has no place as a member of our student body. In speaking of sportsmanship, the student body plays an important role, and it is to be hoped that one or two unfortunate incidents of the past year, when either an opponent or an official were hissed during the progress of a game, will not be repeated. An opposing team comes here as our guest, and should be extended every courtesy as such. One or two over enthusiastic spectators may mar the best efforts of the Association, or those that represent it on the field. If our opponents violate the rules of the game, or resort to unsportsmanlike conduct the penalty or censure should come from the officials who have the game in hand, and we as the home team assume the responsibility for securing competent officials. We cannot pass without a word of comment for one who has done much for our athletic teams during the past three years. Dr. Marks, because of the stress of his other duties, has been compelled to give up coaching the football and basketball teams during the past year, and the Association loses one who always had the welfare of the students at heart, and whose ideals of sportsmanship have done much toward keeping our standard at the top. 'I'he work of Coach Steffens is still fresh in our minds, and those who have met him, and know of his work with the football team last fall, feel that he has proved himself a coach of the clean cut type that knows his business. We look forward to next fall expecting to see on the gridiron the best team that Tech has ever had. Probably the most momentous change within the Association was the election of a Graduate Manager of Athletics. The Association has gone along year Page One Hundred and Seventy-four after year with a different manager each year for each activity, and after careful consideration it was thought that the best interests of the Association would be served by electing one man who could assume the responsibility for all branches of sport, and carry out a definite policy from year to year. Mr. Fred Foster, a graduate of the lirst class of Tech, was elected to the position, and has already arranged an attractive schedule for next year’s football team. Mr. Foster was instrumental in originating many of the activities at Tech, that have stood the acid test, and we look forward to our athletics taking a boom under his managerial reign. Another innovation of the year was the securing of “Al.” and his brother Honus Wagner, as basketball coaches. While the team to date has been a trifle erratic, it is not unusually so considering that the majority of the material has been drawn from the plebcs, and it should prove the nucleus for a strong varsity team next year. The Wagners will probably take charge of the baseball team during the spring, and with quite a number of last year’s men available, it is expected that Tech will shine on the diamond, as they finished last year’s schedule in strong style. Coach Dull has been working the track men since last fall, and if spirit and consistent effort count for anything, look for Tech to spring a few surprises on the cinder paths this year. The men are showing the results of his able coaching, and we expect to have a well balanced team when the outdoor season opens. C aptain Ilaselton has returned to school, though it is doubtful whether he will be able to compete, as a result of an injury he received on Schenley oval last spring, after he had established a new record fer Western Pennsylvania in the mile run. Hasclton’s efforts will be greatly missed,as he was looked for to take a place with the best in the game this year, but the never give up spirit which lie has maintained throughout will be a big factor in encouraging his team mates to bring victory to Tech. One of the most needed things to bring about a better quality of athletic teams is probably creating an interest in the athletes themselves to a more consistent effort on their part. The man who comes out for an athletic team for the brief season of eight or ten weeks, and then hibernates the remainder of the year, is greatly limiting his capacity and ability. The football player who plays basketball, or participates in some other form of activity during the year, is usually a better basketball player as a result of his football experience, and a better football player as a result of his basketball experience. The increased mental attributes, besides the muscular co-ordination a man establishes in one, arc of much assistance in the other lines of athletics. This is one reason why we so often find a man who is able to compete in several branches of athletics with equal success. Let us strive during the coming year to work consistently thruout, and not be athletic pigs for a few weeks. We will enjoy the thrill of being physically fit, and our athletic teams, and our standard of sportsmanship will develop with us. J. H. McCulloch.

Not as a student this time, those days are over for him as well as for some more of us 41 has beens,” but holding down the newly instituted graduate manager job. It seems most natural to see Fred’s big form loom up from among a bunch of the fellows — most natural to hear and watch him expostulating upon weighty and intricate affairs of state at Tech — most natural to be informed that 44 Fred is in publicity work for Tech” in fact its just plumb in accordance with things to have Foster at Tech and at the good work he is about. The fellows of the “early days” know why it all seems natural, but some of you 44 later day” ones may inquire why? Now, 44 there is reason in all things,” so these “natural” reasons are: Foster came to Pittsburgh and to Tech—for this journey the exact mode of travel I am in doubt upon—raw from New England and Williston Academy—the rawness is certainly most natural. This was when Tech was first opening its doors. It was only-natural that he should talk the Director into the belief that if the schools were to be properly organized, it was most necessary that Foster be enrolled among the class of 1908—and wasn’t it just natural Fred should be chosen as the first class president? Just what student activities Foster is personally responsible for starting none of us can (not even could Fred, if asked) state exactly. The Tartan, The White Friars, a fraternity. Freshman initiations. The Thistle, some branches of athletics, I think can be stated as some at least. We know, however, he was the leading spirit and direct or indirect promoter of practically all the early student affairs; and to him far, far more than to any other single fellow must go credit for organizing many now established school activities and traditions. Foster, the father and nurse of much we now hold good and dear at Tech— the dreamer, the promoter, the organizer and leader of student affairs of the early days, is now in an official position to help carry on these same, and later developed, matters of student activities. He is again among the fellows with the same old ways, same old familiar figure, voice, gestures, powers of speech and leadership—the same old Fred merely grown a bit wiser and a little older. It’s as if he had only been away from us on one of those summer vacations of wild adventure and interesting travel. We are glad he is back with us again for a time, glad to have him doing the work he is. But isn’t it all kind of just natural? L. L. Beekov, A. S. Page One Hundred and Seventy-seven William L. Marks, M.D. Resident Physician Page One Hundred and Seventy-eight DOCTOR WILLIAM L. MARKS HK recent retirement of Doc Marks from active coaching service has lead us to make this expression of our appreciation for the invaluable assistance rendered athletics at Carnegie. In addition to serving in the official capacity of resident physician for the schools,the duties of which office now demand his entire time, he has for the past three years, remunerated only by a satisfaction of having done more than his mere duty, assumed the coaching of our teams. He undertook the task when the prospects were hard work with many discouragements in view, when the sources of material were limited and poor, when Carnegie had its reputation in intercollegiate athletics to make. With his dominant optimism, pleasantness, and above all his exceptional faculty of being a good fellow to everyone, Doc undertook the job, to leave the indelible stamp that distinguishes Tech as clean and fair in all sports. True athlete that he is, he laid a solid foundation of good sportsmanship upon which his successor can safely build a team. Clean cut, straightforward, earnest, with a clear understanding of what athletics really mean, he has taught by example the lessons that will mean so much to a man after he leaves school. He has helped to place Tech in the position it now occupies in the realm of sports, he has helped to give it a reputation of which we are all justly proud. The severing of active ties with the teams in no way means that we will see Doc no more on the field; the call of the game has always been a strong one with him, he cannot resist it. Spring will find him with the team as interested in its development as ever. A victory for Tech will always Ik a triumph for him, since he taught the spirit of fair play that makes a winner. Me has always l een known as a man among men, but we will always know him as a Prince among Carnegie men.

I.ast fall so clearly demonstrated that fact to us that we will allow no one to dispute it. He never drives his men, he leads them by the example he is able to set before them. Words cannot express the admiration that every Tech man holds for him. Beside giving us so good a team, he has left us even a greater gift, the motto “Fight hard. Tech. DOCTOR WILLIAM L. MARKS Associate Coach We absolutely refuse to disconnect Doc and athletics, duties or no duties. We’re going to keep him out on the field as long as he is able to Ik kept. I n three years he laid so secure a foundation for athletics that his successor unhesitatingly built his super-structure upon it. A stronger, truer, firmer friend and teacher no team ever had, and we now need his friendship more than ever. I le is a worthy example of an athlete for any man to follow. Page One Hundred and Eighty-fc THE MANAGERS FRANK L. ROWND, 16. A. D. Manager Always on the job, with all the pep in pcp| er, best express the characteristics of our manager. The football field would have Ik ch a deserted garden without the busy, bustling, hustling figure of Frank Rownd. His quickness, alertness and tact enabled him to get the most out of the team, while at the same time that he was giving them all he had. Ilis heart was in the work, his time was the team’s, his licst efforts were freely given to make the season the success it was. He was the Ixrst manager the game has seen, he is the best friend the team had. May we see his like in charge in 1915. KARL S. HENNING, ‘16. A. S. Student Manager-Elect The honor falls to a man who by being a good student, a conscientious worker, and a clean cut fellow has proved himself worthy of it. As assistant he demonstrated ! cyond a doubt that he could handle that end of the job. Karl's pleasantness, politeness, and straightforwardness leave a favorable impression with everyone he meets. You should not believe the camera impression of soberness for he seldom is quite himself in the face of one of those machines; vet he has enough of it in him to give him a strong bearing with men. We place full, unconditional confidence in our new manager. Page One Hundred and Eighty-five THE VARSITY W. FRANK McCAUGHEY, ‘15, A. D. Captain, Right Tackle With the fight that made him our captain, Mac made his presence felt every minute of every game he played. A clean, hard, consistent player, he was a credit to the position he was given tlie honor of holding. The g xls put themselves in eternal disfavor at Tech hv not permitting Mac to play in the Pitt game. His determined face not only instilled a fighting spirit in his teammates, but also assured his opponent that he would be played to the last second of the game. We arc proud to have such an athlete represent us anywhere. WILLIARD W. LAUER. 16. A. S. Captain-Elect, Right End Chosen to lead footlxdl on its forward advance to another successful season, we were with him when he said, Fellows, we’ve got to beat Pitt next year. It's all we have to live for. ” A heady, steady, speedy player, and a sure tackier made him the person who could get his man and all who come within his reach. As a player he is fully cpialified for his new position, but as a man he has even a stronger claim on the job. Curly can lx? depended upon to maintain the standard set by his predecessors. Page One Hundred and Eighty-six THE VARSITY WILLIAM F. WELCH. ’ 15. A. S. Right Tactile A revolutionist from Mexico. Big Bill never learned the meaning of the word quit, nor could he be taught it in the four years In has been on the team. Bill doesn't say much, but those who played against him can well appreciate the saying about the barking dog. We never worried alxmt who was to play right tackle for he was always on the job. No one has yet had the honor of putting him out of the game for more than a few seconds. Tech will miss you. Bill. HARRY D. BALS1NGER, '15, A.S. Halfback. He knew the game. Bally could size up any play, tell its direction, prepare the team for it, and then throw himself into the place where he was most needed. lie was Tech's best defensive player, her exponent of team play. Though hurt time and time again, he came back with the same amount of vim each time. The Plaid’s spirit injector he continually begged, implored, pleaded the team to give its In-st for Tech. We regret that graduation is to remove such a valuable man from our midst. Page One Hundred amd Eighty-seven THE VARSITY HENRY H. KREIDER, ’15. A. I. Halfback 'flic forward pass was his strong card. Mad wc have had Dutch in the lineup more, our proficiency in that phase of the game would have been marked. I Ic was a scrapper, but used this faculty only where it was apparently needed. Me went into the game tc outwit his man, and usually succeeded in doing it. Injuries kept him out of some of the games, but he managed to fool the doctors, and get into the Pitt struggle. We are to lose this man when his services are most valuable. JAMES E. KESNER, 17, A. S. Quarterback Popular with everyone, more especially the fair rooters. How often have we heard a small clear voice call, “Oh! I just love Kessy!” lie is built all in one piece, close to the ground, with all the qualifications that go to make up good quarter. With speed, coolness, fight and judgment, he proved himself one of the masters of his position. I le has the record of never missing a tackle. A general on the field, and a general in his studies Sunny is the kind of player who will always be eligible for every game. Page One Hundred and Eighty-eight THE VARSITY HERBERT E. HELLSTROM. 17, A. S. Center The center of attraction, Ijoth on and off the field is Whitcy. Steady, cool, accurate were only a few of the characteristics that made him one of the main points of the team. Ilis work will be appreciated when it is said that he made every pass a good one. As a defensive man Whitcy ranks among the best; as a popular man he is almost without a competitor. Next year's line has one position which it need have no fears as to a man to fill it. FRED. D. OEFINGER. 16. A. I. Fullback Found in 1913, but not until the Haverford game. Fritz maintained the reputation he gained in that game so well that he had no rival for his position. He hit the line low and hard, SO hard that he always gained. He was our kickoff man, one who could be deluded upon to place the ball on the ten yard line almost every time. Steady is the word that describes Fritz. He kept training rules to the letter, was always the same, and acted under all circumstances as a true athlete. Page One Hundred and Eighty-nine THE VARSITY HENRY LEVY.’15. A. S. Right End With the recently acquired necessary credentials for playing football—weight, Indian, although a senior, came out for the team. Speed, grit, determination, and the motto, “ Never too late to make good, enabled him to make the varsity. By playing hard, putting his whole self into the play he was able to overcome his inexperience and to make a strong bid for the end position. The end of his school life was therefore at the right end. GEORGE M. BOILEAU, 16. A. I. Right Guard The first man this fall to pester the managers for a football suit. 11c continued his pestering until he earned a regular |x -sition on the varsity squad. Ilis weight and ever increasing knowledge of the game made him a useful man on the team. C.ay life however was the cause of his being called upon to act as official track conditioner for a couple of days, much to his distaste and exertion. Page One Hundred and Ninety THE VARSITY JOHN M. PARKE, 15, A. I. Halfback “Scratched gravel,” were the words used toexplain how this man earned his letter. Out to every practice, ready and eager to seize the chance to go in and do his liest: although he did not win a regular | osition. lie showed his ability in adapting himself to where he was put. He deserves much credit for his steady hard -.ork and untiring efforts to become proficient in the game. CLARENCE T. FLETCHER, ’17, A. S. Quard Fletch carried the marks of a football player with him in a most conspicuous place, his face. Mis hard playing left prints on his features; but then, we were not able to examine his opponent. Although he did not hold down a position regularly he was there with the goods when his chance came. When we remember that our friend from the Navy learned what he knows of football in the two years he has Ixren with us, we will see that he is the making of a great guard. Page One Hundred and Ninety-one THE VARSITY WATSON W. MITCHELL, 18. A. I. Right End Why lit was called Wretch we do not exactly know, unless it l c derived from his ability to upset a man so soon after lie yets started with the ball. Mis fame lies in the deed lie performed at Lehigh in the famous Mystery play, when lie carried the ball half the length of the field for a touchdown. Injuries almost roblxxl us of Mitch, but unless the inevitable happens lie will be with us next fall. Anyway, here’s hopin’ he comes back. PHILIP P. MARSHALL, 18. A. S. Left Halfback When I’liil finally found his |xice we witnessed an addition to the back field that complete I a crew of players which gained the reputation of living the fastest in the game. You simply couldn't stop him once he started. His strong point was in running in the open field. Ilis long runs were a feature of the season. He is quiet, preferring rather to make his playing speak for itself. Tech is fortunate to have this man for three more years. Page Otic Hundred and Ninety-two THE VARSITY HAROLD D. CRAWFORD,' 18. A. S. Left Tackle Seasoned at Kiski; developed at Tech. I he name Crawford was again heard from almost the same place in the line that it was when “Captain Frank was with us. Although big. his quickness made him a strong aggressive player. Me took advantage of even the slightest misplay of his opponent to the material advantage of the team. Speaking of material benefits though, reminds us that the telephone lx . at the training house is a witness that he was of no small financial service to the stockholders of the Hell Telephone Company. ERNEST H. HOLZWORTH, 18. A. S. Tackle New and unheard of difficulties were experienced when Shorty applied for the necessities where with to play footlxill; even the training house had to undergo certain changes to accommodate this man. The Pitt game showed us that we had in him the essentials of a first grade tackle. He is another man who obeys training rules under all circumstances. Three years should sec this fellow develop into one of Tech’s in-dispensablc men. One Hundred and Ninety-three THE VARSITY EDWARD F. KELLEY, ’18. A. D. Guard Tech’s silent guard. The quiet attentive attitude he possessed gained for him the respect of the coach and all who knew him. He played hard and steady; he was clean and fair. The development Kcl underwent was due to the fact that he practiced faithfully and followed the advice given him. The apparent temporary disability of his jaw was not caused by his getting into an argument for we know him better than that. BENJAMIN HANTMAN, ’15, A. S. Seoul Steffen’s Board of Strategy had Benny in the unique position of scout. Four years of bumps on the second team did not lessen his determination to stick to the game and try. This spirit gave him two invaluable awards, his “C” and the name “Captain Benny.” Benny played on the squad that takes the hard knocks of football without any sympathy from the side lines. A good second squad is worth more to a team than can be figured, and we certainly owe these men the highest respect. Tech is always proud of her “stickers.” Page Otic Hundred and Ninety-four Mtf-Xputtf puv pjjpunji ?uq Mdj NOVEMBER 14—REMINISCENCES A Perfect Day Tech vs. Pitt Fall in Line—Pee-rade—On to Forbes Field On the Field.

A Defeat spelled V-I-C-T-O-R-Y, Page One Hundred and Ninety-six THE SEASON-THE TEAM 1914 11K football season of 1914 lias passed into history and with it goesa record of some mighty interesting games played by Carnegie “Tech.” In summing up the season's play it can l c said to have been on the whole a success, not from the standpoint of games won and lost but the season was marked with progress in the right direction and gave convincing indications that there is a bright future ahead. At the outset of the season, after looking over the material at hand and carefully studying it, I was firmly convinced that it would In. necessary to develop a style of play in which end running and forward passing predominated. 1 realized that it would be useless to rely upon hammering line bucking plays as the squad was without back field men of the weight, speed and power, which make the line plunging game a success. The probability of a weak defense was apparent and 1 set about to develop a strong offensive team, which to my mind was the only way to overcome the weakness of the defense. An effort was made from the first week of the season to develop wide end runs and surprising combinations with the use of the forward | ass. There was some difficulty impressing this style of play upon the boys and frequently throughout the season did we see attempts made by the team to futilely plug our opponents' line and thus waste valuable downs which might have been used to much l ettcr advantage attempting open plays which the men had at their command. The team evidenced periodically throughout the season splendid possibilities, cs| ceially in the “ Pitt ” and l.ehigh games. When the men were playing in unison, the eleven players all working harmoniously with one another, they played their opponents to a standstill and it was almost impossible to stop them. I lowevcr, too often during the season the eleven were, as Director I lam-merschlag often said, “at sixes and sevens” and whenever in that state their play was deplorably weak. They could neither gain nor could they stop their opponents from gaining. It must be remembered that in the face of some very depressing conditions the team did some very creditable work due largely perhaps to the courage and fight displayed by the individual members of the team. Throughout the season the men made many mistakes and did many things which, of course, were not in accord with what they had been taught. At times they tackled poorly and interfered miserably but at no time did a single one of them cease to give the best he had and everyone of them fought a good fight for “Tech.” As I look back and analyze the progress of the team during the season I see many places wherein I feel I could have made improvement, the most important of which was in the development of the rush line. The line men seldom hel|Kad the backs by making openings and as a result we were rarely able to make any gains by use of the short ground gaining plays which I had devised. Our inability to gain by this sort of play seriously handicapped our open play as it made it much more difficult to alarm or mislead our opponents by various open formations calculated to confuse anti weaken the defense. The season was not many weeks old before our opponents realized that our strength lay in end running and forward (Kissing and they simply prepared their defense accordingly. Had we been able to gain consistently by line plays our open style of play would have been much more effective. Looking forward to the coming season with intense interest every effort will l c made to greatly improve the concentrated attack on the line, and to have a letter execution of the forward pass, and with the same loyal support of the student l ody that we had (hiring the entire season of 1914, I am confident the coming season will pass into history as the most successful Carnegie Tech, ever had.

Most of the players were rather young at the game and about the only man who was sure of his position on the team was the catcher, Lain. Pete DcMuth, captain, at right, was a dream, but at his proposed position, first base, a nightmare. Coach McCulloch never had poorer material to start with, and it is to his credit that he succeeded in turning out one of the l est teams that we have ever had. After the first disheartening defeat the coach and captain worked hard trying new combinations, and by the day of our second game, May 2nd, had succeeded in whipping the team into some sort of shape. The most serious problem by this time was the pitching staff. Hines, who had done splendid work the previous season was out of the game on account of his health. Our hopes seemed to rest on Ryan, who had pitched part of the game against Pitt and had shown some ability. He was put in the game against Westminster on May 2nd and did such good work that we got away with a victory. This seemed to put new life into the team and things began to look rosy. Our glory was short lived, however, for our next two games with Grove City and W. J. were stinging defeats. The story is too sad to relate. Looking back to the poor material which we had when the season started and considering what a splendid finish they made, these defeats do not look so bad. Certainly the glorious victory which followed more than recompensed for them. Muskingum, Allegheny and Penn State were successively defeated. If we had not won another game we should feel proud of that game with Penn State. Ryan pitched the best ball ever seen on Tech field and was backed up splendidly by the entire team. It was the first time that Tech ever defeated State in any branch of athletics. There was just one unpleasant feature of the game. One of the State men broke his ankle sliding into second base. The Penn State game happened to be on a Thursday and we were scheduled for two games with West Virginia Wesleyan at Buckhannon, W. Va., on the following Friday and Saturday. Both these games resulted in defeats for Tech. The entire team was worn out after the hard game with State. Even so, it is the writer’s opinion that we would have defeated the West Virginians if it had not been for their student band. I have heard all sorts of bands, but never has it been my misfortune to hear a more discordant combination of wheezes and toots. Pete” Page Two Hundred and Three The rooters were very funny also. Once when our redoubtable Peter J. DcMuth was at the bat some one in the bleachers called out, “Come on, Sonny, hit it out you know you can.” The town humorist, seeing his chance called out, “If he can’t, tomato can.” It was the funniest thing that had been heard there in years and was received by the assembled heckcrs with vulgar shrieks of laughter. We had to suffer one more defeat during the season, but we are not ashamed of that game. Pitt nosed us out 3 to 2, but were given the hardest fight they encountered that season. After that we successively defeated Bethany, Allegheny for the second time, West Virginia, and the Alumni. The game with West Virginia was probably the most exciting and best played game of the season. It took all season to find a third baseman, but in the game with West Virginia, Krumm proved that he was entirely capable of handling that position. The successful closing of the season was celebrated with a modest dinner at the Nixon Restaurant. Tom Alexander and “Tillie” dropped in during the dinner and added much to the general good feeling by assuring each and every one of us many times that we were hellish good fellows. The entire team played a splendid game after they were organized, but the work of several men deserves special mention. “Tiny” Brine played brilliantly at short, and at times was nothing short of sensational. Pete DeMuth and “Dutch Krcider played splendidly in the outfield, and Humphries developed into one of the best first basemen we have ever had. There is one name, however, that stands out above all others as the hero of the season; that of Ryan. He pitched every hard game that was played and was always willing to try to pull the team out of a hole and usually succeeded in doing so. We had only one real pitcher, but he was the best in Western Pennsylvania college baseball. Since manager “Frit . Routh wrote the above, his modesty kept him from saying how well the season was conducted. Everyone knew Fritz as a good scout and a manager who would do much to give the team every possible comfort. The successful season indicates that lie performed his duties well, and has left many pleasant memories with the members of his team.

Pa. Intercollegiate at New Wilmington, Pa. Second Page Two Hundred and Seven THE TRACK SEASON OF 1914 The second season under Coach Dull’s direction showed marked improvement in the work of the track team. A glance at the results of the two indoor and three outdoor meets will disclose three victories, two second places, and one third place. Not only the collective record of the team, but also a large number of the individual achievements were bettered. The new marks set or the old ones equalled were so numerous that they stand out prominently as a feature of the year’s work. Most conspicuous of all, however, were the performances of Captain-elect F. R. Haselton, who by establishing new marks in the half mile and mile runs, now possesses the three school records for the distance races. Following him came Jack King, who attained heights hitherto unreached by Carnegie high jumpers; then Captain Clair, who hurled the discus farther than any other weight man; and Hal Wright, who broke his own record of the previous year in the pole vault; while Hemmann equalled the school records in the hundred yard dash. In addition to the record holders, Dunseith, Mac-Millan and Campbell deserve special mention; and congratulations are due to the other “C” men; Rieser, Kirk, Patterson, Meredith, Finlay and Adams, for their general good work. Manager Miller too deserves much credit for making the work enjoyable for the men. The indoor season, which consisted of several minor events, with two important meets, left nothing to be desired. Tech sprang a surprise at the start, when we tied with Pitt for second place in the P. A. A. meet. From a Plaid standpoint. King offered the chief attraction by jumping 5 feet 11 inches, establishing a school indoor record that is likely to stand for some time. By a score of 50 to 39 we gained permanent possession of the Smith loving cup by being winners of two out of three of the meets in the Westinghouse Club Carnegie series. Coming events were foreshadowed by the victories of Haselton in the distance runs. The outdoor season was started off in a most exciting manner by the dual meet with Allegheny College at Meadville on May 2. The final score of 66 to 60 in our favor indicates the closeness of the struggle, in fact it was not definitely decided until the last event was over. In this meet King made his second record of the year in the high jump, when he cleared the bar at 5 feet 8% inches. Tech’s distance runners at once began to show their worth by taking twenty-six out of a possible twenty-seven points in the half mile, mile, and two mile runs. Hemmann showed form in winning both the 100-yard and 200-vard dashes in good times. The following Saturday at Schenlcy Oval Tech had little trouble in annexing another victory in a dual meet with Westminster by a score of 81 to 45. The track was too muddy for any records but the work of I lemmann, Clair and Campbell was especially noticeable. Page. Two Hundred and Eight The T); Track relations were renewed with Pitt at the Oval Friday, May 15, in a heart-breaking contest. Carnegie held a lead of 3 4-5 points until the last event when Pitt made a clean sweep in the broad jump, and won the meet by a score of 65 3-5 to 60 2-5. The evenness of the two teams is shown in the fact that each school secured six firsts and tied for first honors in the other two events. The Plaid excelled in the races, while the Blue and Gold displayed superiority in the field contests. Two Carnegie records were broken and one equalled this afternoon. Haselton ran the half mile in 2:01 2-5, bettering the former time by 2 3-5 seconds. Captain Clair set a new mark for the discus throw for the second time in the season with a distance of 114 feet inches. Hemmann ran the best 100-yard dash since 1911. and placed his name with IC. Dowling and C. M. Crawford as a holder of the record of 10 1-5 seconds. Dunseith put in his claim for fame when he outgeneraled two speedy opponents, and crossed the tape winner of the 440-yard dash. The Intercollegiate meet with Pitt on May 23 was a very disasterous one for Carnegie. After setting a new Western Pennsylvania intercollegiate record of 4:31 for the mile run, Haselton was struck in the leg above the knee by the hammer. Me has since recovered from this severe injury but it is doubtful whether he will ever run again, 'flic accident occurred after the third event, taking from us our surest point winner, and unnerving the whole team. Nevertheless Hemmann showed his heels to all contestants in the short sprint, King won the high jump with ease, and Clair came within an inch of equalling the school record in the hammer throw. The final count gave Penn State, 91 5-6 points; Pitt. 65 1-3; Carnegie, 30 5-6, while Allegheny, V. J. and Westminster placed in the order given. An intercollegiate meet at Westminster College May 30 closed the season. We were compelled to take second place in this meet, but all of the thirty men whom we took along added his share to placing Tech in the place it took. Hal Wright had the pleasure of winning over his opponent, McMastersof Pitt, beating him in the pole vault and establishing a new school record of 11 feet 4 inches. That fifteen men received track letters predicts that Tech has good chances for an excellent team this year. But the loss of Captain-elect Haselton, Captain Clair, MacMillan and Campbell materially changed the prospects for the spring, and throws the chances of success on the new men that may develop, and the old men who will come back. The selection of Haselton as captain for this season not only named the best runner Tech ever had, but a man whose presence on the field will be an inspiration to the men who are to work in his stead. His injury deprived us of a runner who would have made a name among colleges as a distance man. Everyone regrets that he should be lost to the Track squad at Carnegie, yet we are glad that his ever dominant pluck has brought him back to school and to the men who admire him so much.

That he was successful in such an undertaking was shown when Carnegie finished second in both races held in this vicinity. Our former track captain, D. W. Waite, and his P. A. A. team caused us to lose first honors in each event, but to beat Pitt was a consolation for the Plaid runners. The first race run just before the Tcch-Pitt game on November 14 was lost by a narrow margin of two points. P. A. A. won its own meet with the low score of 32 points against 34 for Tech and 52 for Pitt. The race brought to light a new cross-country man in Walker who led the Carnegie team by finishing fifth. Dun-seith who came in eighth, Riescr ninth, and Handclman twelfth, weretheothersto place in the race. Nine of the first twenty men to cover the five mile course were the Plaid. P. A. A., with Waite again as star won the Crafton meet on Thanksgiving Day. Walker once more showed his ability by finishing fourth close to the heels of the leaders. Ricser, Moore and Ben ter, coming in in close succession, completed the Tech team, and gave us a score of 31 points to 18 for the winners. After the race Ricser was elected captain for next year in view of his showing in these two races, and his good consistent track work of last spring. TRACK SCHEDULE April 17.

The team that finished the season is the one that will start next season where they left off, and be able to make a material showing which this year has made possible. A rather hard close schedule made the season an intensive one, yet it had the advantage of furnishing the men with the experience they lacked at the beginning of the year. The school supported the team because it presented possibilities, and because it played the game hard though at times erratic. With the graduation of Criswell, Douthett’s change to night school, and captain elect Tumpanc's serious injury and subsequent withdrawal from school, a problem of developing three new men was the one that faced the coaching force. As captain, “Pick” I lines relieved us of all fears from the one guard position, but Douthett left the other side of defense open for a new man. When l)utch Henning showed us that he was built for the guard job by playing the clean hard game that he plays everywhere, the guarding end of the game caused no more worry. Colvin’s absence from the five made it necessary to find another center. However, when the School of Drama was searched we found the one we were looking for in the person of Chuc” Meredith. Levy showed form in playing forward and with the experience of the previous year was able to handle that job well, but another man had to be developed to fill the place left open by Tumpane. Although he did not take the place of Tump, Schiffer showed himself possessed of much of the spirit the team needed. These men played together, played hard, and played fast, but more than that they improved steadily till they now present sure signs of success for 1916. When Doctor Marks found his duties as physician calling him so strongly, he considered it necessary to resign as coach, but he still retained the interest he always shows in the team. We were fortunate enough to secure the services of A1 Wagner as coach, together with the advice and co-operation of his brother Honus, who needs no introduction to Tech men. The new spirit instilled into the team, a new style of playing and the good fellowship of these men are a few of the things for which Tech is thankful. Much credit is due Manager Boyer for the way in which he handled the home games and following program dances. He showed a genuine interest in the team, trying always to make the season agreeable to every one. One thing that caused much favorable comment of his work was the neat attractive appearance of the posters with which he advertised the home games; they were decorative as well as useful. Since Levy is the only man we lose through graduation, and Tumpane will undoubtedly be in school next year, the prospects for next season are bright. With good material in Slater, Green, Humphrey and Curtis we should have a team which will make a material showing next year. Manager Hover Puge Two Hundred and Seventeen STUDENT HEALTH STATISTICS 2 'Cbistle 5 During the present year, the Department of Students’ Health lias put into operation a plan prepared last year, the salient features of which are: 1. A more thorough medical examination. 2. As complete an attempt as possible to enable the student to meet with a minimum of expenditure of time and money. 3. Two of the three factors necessary to maintain or restore health. i. e., Food and Exercise. The third, sleep, is uncontrollable by any outside agency and must l e seen to by the individual student. Though far from ideal, conditions of health have been much more satisfying this year than last. Much remains to be done and no small part of that much must be contributed by the student body, mainly through willing co-operation. It can be safely said that fully 40 per cent, of the indispositions recorded by the school physician in his monthly report could be easily avoided if we were all to realize the importance of prophylactic measures. The following tables compiled from the medical examinations held during the fall give interesting facts concerning certain conditions, especially weight and scoliosis. The uniformity of the curve of percentages in the three schools is still more striking when one takes into consideration the fact that the students at C. I. T. come from 36 different states. Nature Science Industries Design Below weight 25 % 21 % 23 % Scoliosis 35 % 27 % 30 % Nose ami throat 71.2% 75 % 64 % Abnormal vision 51 5% 35.6% 46.7% High pulse 37 % 10.5% 44 % Heart condition 12.5% 6.7% 13.2% FAMILY HISTORY COMPILATION SHOWING PER CENT.

T. attached were won by six men for tennis during the season of 1914: George Douthett, Captain; A. I). Beeken, John W. Savage, William Miller, F. K. Schuchman, and R. S. Wilson, Manager. The longest schedule ever played by our tennis team was successfully completed. Of the seven matches scheduled, four at home and three away, the team won five, and in so doing established the best record yet made by a Carnegie tennis team. This indicates that Tech is experiencing a gradual development in all branches of athletics, not devoting its efforts to one line only. The prospects for the coming season are not the best, since all of the last year’s men have graduated, and the material is of good quality but inexperienced. With the good live manager that R. S. Wilson has shown himself to Ik?, and the growing interest that is being shown in sports as a whole there is no doubt that a creditable team will be developed.

A series of inter-class basketball games is played off every season. After this the Margaret Morrison Varsity Team is chosen for the following year from the three upper classes. It is the intention of the Association to award sweaters to this team hereafter. In the spring a tennis tournament is held, and the winner is awarded a similar sweater to the ones given to the Varsity Basketball Team. The winner last year was Katherine Dermit of the class of 1915. Much of the past enthusiasm in basketball in our school has been due to the present Junior class. For the past three years they have held the championship in the school, and three members of the Varsity team have chosen from the Junior class team each year. A few games with outside teams will be played before the close of the season. The final game is scheduled for the night of the Demonstration of Physical Pl aining. which is given under the direction of Miss Stoner, and will probably be played with the College Club Team.

Nearly one hundred men responded, and of these about eighty were chosen for further tryouts. Rehearsals were then held weekly, with occasional special rehearsals. On October 23rd the management tendered a smoker to last year’s men, and to all who had tried out for this season’s club. Talks were given by the officers and by several members of the Faculty who were present. In order to give the men a still further opportunity to get acquainted, an informal dance was given in Carnegie Union on November 10th. The concert season opened at Marshalsea, with a very successful opening concert. All efforts were then bent toward the production of the home concert. Many concerts intervened, that in the University Club being one of the most enjoyable. The clubs were entertained royally, and delivered an excellent program. An appetizing supper was served, during the course of which Director Scalzo presented the insignia of merit to those who had earned the distinction during the season of 1913-14. In spite of rainy weather, the West Virginia trip was enjoyed by all, altho the clubs were very nearly marooned by the high water. After the home concert numerous engagements were filled until the close of the season on April 30th. For the first time, both the Glee and the Mandolin Clubs were under the direction of one man. When Signor Scalzo was selected to direct the Glee Club, a duplication of his success with the Mandolin Club was expected. To all who attended the Home Concert, this expectation was more than realized. This season, lie placed the clubs in higher standing than those of any previous year. Taken from every point of view, this season has been one fraught with success. Page Two Hundred and Thirty-two Caplan Smith Vierheller Todd Baker Cameron McKee EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. John A. Cameron .

DIRECTOR SCALZO Signor Gregorio Scalzo was born in Taormina, Italy, in 1884. At the age of nine he commenced the study of the mandolin under Professor (3. Verdura, of Catania. When sixteen he toured in concert thru Argentine, Uruguay and Brazil as mandolin soloist. Returning to Europe in 1901, he resumed the study of music at the Leipzig Konservatorium under such eminent instructors as Hans Becker, Arthur Xikisch and Richard Hoffman, devoting much time to harmony, counterpoint, composition and instrumentation. In 190.? he organized in Leipzig the Club Sylvestri, of mandolins and guitars, which attained remarkable success. After six years of study in this noted German city, he made for the second time a successful concert tour in Brazil. In the spring of 1909, Signor Scalzo came to New York, and was engaged as violinist with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Emil Paur. During the summer of that year he returned to Europe for a ten weeks’ tour as mandolin and violin soloist. He then joined the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, with which he remained until it disbanded in 1910, after which he played with the Pittsburgh Festival Orchestra. In 1910 he became director of the Carnegie Mandolin Club, and thru his able direction has succeeded in placing it among the best of college organizations. In 1914 he also assumed charge of the Glee Club, with equal success in this field. The Carnegie Musical Clubs are indeed fortunate in possessing as director a man so well qualified for the position. Page Two Hundred and Thirty-four 'Cbe 'Cbistle TENTH ANNUAL HOME CONCERT The Home Concert in Carnegie Music Hall, was held on March 12. It was a success from every point of view, and showed a marked improvement on the work of previous years. The first part of the program was given as a formal concert; the second part, with very pleasing effect, was staged as an evening scene in a southern garden. The work of the Glee Club was particularly commendable. A well balanced program was rendered, composed of light, humorous and more serious numbers. PROGRAM 1. (a) Amici (b) Winter Song . 2.

Since the opening clay of school, this organization has increased in number, and proficiency, until its presence is considered essential at all athletic contests and similar school functions. No peeradc” would be complete without it This popularity is well deserved. Only band men know the discomfort of playing in torrid weather, and the hardships of playing in freezing weather when the air is full of snow. Under all conditions of weather men from the three schools have unselfishly sacrificed comfort, and valuable time to answer the calls made upon the Band, and to attend weekly and semi-weekly rehearsals. The services of each man are gratis. The Students Activities Committee has recognized the spirit of the band, and has responded more generously than ever before with its appropriations. New music, instruments, and uniforms have been purchased, and insignia is promised to those who make suitable attendance at rehearsals and concerts. The supporters of the Band owe a debt of gratitude to the Manager, M. E. Gumbart, whose faithfulness and enthusiasm have attributed largely to its success. The school is fortunate indeed in securing Director E. F. Sullivan. Mr. Sullivan’s experience of some twenty years covers a broad musical field, including six years of concert work, and fifteen years of organization and instruction in various state institutions. His ability is unquestioned, and he is a man whom the Band meml crs like personally. O. D. Kingsbury. Page Two Hundred and Thirty-nine M. M. C. S.

Secretary and Treasurer Marion Pichel Goldik McClelland Mistress of Wardrobe......................Marguerite Menges Stage Manager...........................Anna Thomas Librarian.................................Isabel Haag The Spring play of last year was held on the evening of May eighth. The Dramatic Club presented “The Far-Away Princess,” by Herman Sauermann, and even at this late date I can look back and recall the feeling that I had that night. I felt like a real college girl in the midst of a real college entertainment—and there was real college spirit among our girls that night. The members of the club who were taking parts had worked long and steadily. They had spent hours memorizing lines and repeating verses, consequently they loved it, although many of them declared they hated it before the final performance came. 'fhe play was given in the Design School Theatre immediately after the concert by the Margaret Morrison Glee Club. When the curtain rose, there was Margaret Sawyer as a garrulous old Inn Keeper. She took her part only as Katherine Sawyer could take a part. For four years she has been one of the joys of the Dramatic Club. Beside her, taking the part of a maid at the inn, was Charlotte Watson. They were preparing for a visit from a real true princess, and the interest in the princess was heightened by a very aspirant mother and two rather uninterested daughters—Constance Stout and Francis Willis and Frmal Pryme. They added a touch of genuine humor to the play, and probably kept us from weeping over it, for it was quite easy to forget that it was our Blanche Booth merely acting as a very sorrowful princess. Who can imagine Marguerite Menges being 'cold and lofty or tyrannizing over a princess? We who sat and looked on were also convulsed by her method of reproval. She would raise her gold lorgnette to her eyes and in slow distinct tones say, “ I am very much surprised!” But—“All Hail! the conquering hero comes.” Of course there must be a man, otherwise why would there Ik a young and beautiful princess? The man was young and handsome, he had a poetic soul; and it happened lie was in love with a far-away Princess. But never mind the story, the man was not a man at all. but Marion Pichel in that role. Many times before have Margaret Morrison girls graced the stage, but our fondest hopes were realized and our highest ideals reached that night. When Marion Pichel (one of our Sophomores) made us forget it was just the Dramatic Club’s Spring Play; made us forget that she was Marion, that Blanche was Blanche, and that the Far-away Princess only lived between the covers of a book, there were few among us who were not filled with pride, and who did not feel truly romantic when the poetic youth quoted from his own writing: “Twenty roses nestling close Gleam upon thy breast, Twenty years of red rose love Upon thy fair cheek rest!” Page Two Hundred and Forfy-one Page T co Hundred and Forty-twa Berner Swanson Griswold l.anit ie Sheldon MrSwigan Kirchenbower Field Peters Student Activities Committee. E py Foster I.utton Mooney THE STUDENT ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE The present Student Activities Committee is the outgrowth of the committee appointed in 1908 to control the expenditure of the fund which is assessed of every student for the maintenance of non-athlctic activities. The old committee however was found to l c too cumbersome in its operation to successfully meet the urgent demands often placed upon it, and consequently it was decided in the spring of 1914 to completely reorganize the committee. It was not until late that fall however, that the final plans were completed. They essentially consisted of one junior from each school to hold office for two years, one senior from each night school, one representative from each alumni association, a treasurer elected from the Sophomore class each third year, whose term of office was to extend over three years, and a faculty supervisor. All officers of organizations which secure financial aid from the Student Activities Committee are excluded from membership. During the past year the following organizations have received financial aid from the committee: The Thistle, the Musical Clubs, the Band, the Wireless Club, Student Health Department, Choral (dub, and the Orchestra. Besides this the committee donated three thousand dollars from the fund for the furnishing of the Carnegie Union, and three hundred dollars for the issuing of a Student Hand Book Supplement. The committee also has the supervision of the Advertising Bureau, a student organization which secures the advertisements for the various school publications, and athletic programs. In the near future it is the intention of the committee to place the handling of all funds, and all the bookkeeping of the previously mentioned organizations in the hands of the treasurer of the activities committee, as it is believed that by so doing a large share of the burden now carried by the managers will be removed. The officers are: C. F. PETERS .... President. Wm. N. Espy .... Vice President. A. W. Swanson .... Treasurer. D. P. Murphy Secretary. F. E. Foster .... . Graduate Manager.

The proceeds from the operation of the Bureau are divided on a percentage basis, between the organizations which the publications represent, and the Student’s Activities Fund. The results of the Advertising Bureau’s work during the past four years have fully justified its existence. The net returns to all publications have been substantially increased and the centralized system of soliciting advertisements prevents conflicting calls on business men, in consequence of which a much better feeling toward Carnegie publications has been noted. Further, the solicitation of advertisements has been the work of students instead of, as before the organization of the Bureau, that of outside men who are not interested in Carnegie Tech; this has resulted in a further increase of confidence by contributing firms. The following men have been associated with the Student’s Advertising Bureau this year: Thomas L. Gleason, Manager James P. Tumpane Hal F. Wright Harold Beaumont Applegate Page Two Hundred and Forty-five A SENIOR’S SOLILOQUY So are we the only freshmen, Whom the reaper hath passed by; Have we lived to sec our comrades From us quietly pass away. In their tales of engineering And the labors of each day, While their lives arc fitly honored On examination day! Have we lived to see them leave us. And to pass to meet their height, While, deserted, and alone, we’re Left prodigious tasks to fight. Months and years have passed by, comrades, Though it seems but yesterday Since that noble Freshman legion With the Sophomores fought its fray— But a day since examination Made each one of us a Pjebc— But a day since registration Made each one a sturdy stude. Those arc days we will remember In our heart we hold them yet; And the hand we got on parting Who can ever that forget? It may have been a mother, A fond father or a wife,” Or a maid whose love was dearer To the student's heart and life. Then the silent midnight toiling And the fierce fought problems too. And the chemical reactions; Gone, please God, for evermore. When the lecture room was crowded On examination day. Then o'er many gallant brothers Came grim tlunk-dcvil's dark shrouds; Failed they in the line of Physics, On their pa| ers, marks were F’s While the wisest almost sickened, From the tortures in excess. In the sunny hills of Oakland They once numbered by the score, Till they dropped off from exhaustion, And their cheers we’ll hear no more. But some comrades struggled onward Until the clouds all cleared away, Ami the Freshman's cause had triumphed And his might had won the day. Mathematics claimed its numbers, Chemistry and Calculus, Mechanic’s chains enriched with Hydraulics, the wisest ones did fuss; Some were flunked while under Geekeler In his talks on infinity, Many failed on r x:ks and minerals, In the hands of Doc Fettke; Some were swamped in dry organics Under pious Prof. Griffin; And our fair ones urged us onward. ’Cause they knew would help us win And the misery of coronations— Factories and sale markets— Dozens struggled to obtain their C,—its memory haunts us yet. Knded finally, then our Soph year Through sore strife and shed of gore, And the brown cards reduced in number And the dean—he called no more. Again we meet with joy, yet sorrow— Vacant places, bleak and bare But reminding us of comrades, Who no longer with us share. Then again the silent reaper On the ranks began to prey, And it ne’er did quit its mission Till most all had turned away— Till but few were left in number Who at no time feared exams, Still some yielded to that reaper, In their last determined stand— fill the gaps had waxed in numbers Marking those who did not stay, Marking temples of devotion, Shrines for graduation day— Soon we all will pass the border To that realm so far away. When we’ll mingle in reunion, Mingle on our final day. Oh, so many have departed, Gone to regions bright and fair, And they have left us here a’struggling To meet again somewhere. Yes, we’re left here like poor stragglers, While the rest go marching out. Again to meet in distant regions On some bright and joyous morn. And our gladness is augmented On our graduation day, When we few will get diplomas As noble heroes pay. But the days will not be many When we too must turn away, And the years which seem so lengthy Seem to be but yesterday; Soon this crowd that toiled and struggled They soon will wend away, And there'll be a new enlistment On a future Autumn day.

Sherwood WHAT IT IS AND WHY The “ Lawtochfraric” has been founded by the class of Nineteen Hundred and Seventeen of the School of Applied Science. The name “ Lawtochfraric a union of loyalty is derived from the Scottish dialect. The society is composed of ten Sophomores who have accomplished something for their class and alma mater during their Plebe year. Thus it is a distinctly honorary organization, the purpose of which is twofold: First, it pro- vides an incentive for earnest work on the part of the Pieties outside of routine duties; secondly, it provides a suitable medium for expression of class opinion. The society is made continuous by elections held at the end of the school year, at which time the active members elect from the Plebe class ten men considered most deserving. The “Lawtochfraric” is significant of the quality which the name typifies, a loyalty to the honor of Carnegie.

Maude Sanford Constance Stout Hazel Thomas Sara Wolfe Friday evening, February 5, 1915, will be remembered as marking the date of the social event of the year, perhaps even of the four years. Certainly nothing could surpass it. The class of 1916 gave the Prom, having as its guests the members, faculty and the Senior Class. This was the first one given in the new Recreation Hall, and the bare walls were much subdued by the use of Southern smilax and yellow flowers, and the glaring lights were greatly softened by the yellow shades. The orchestra was hidden by a very effective screen of palms. C lass and school colors were carried out in every detail, the yellow predominating. In the receiving line were Miss Grace Searight, president of the Class, Dean Breed, Miss Bcllville, honorary member of the class, Miss Lyon, Miss Hinman, Miss Merrill, and Miss Dickey, president of the Senior ('lass. The program was in two parts of twelve dances each. After the first half supper was served in the lunch room. It presented quite a different appearance to that it does ordinarily. The color scheme was further carried out by having baskets of yellow (lowers in the center of the table, and yellow and green shades on the candles. The entire arrangement was very pretty and very attractive. The refreshments were for the most part prepared by the girls themselves, and they proved that their training was a great advantage, not only in the preparation of the food, but in economy. The members of the Sophomore class did the serving, in which capacity they were very efficient. After about an hour, dancing was again the main feature; and this continued until about two o’clock, when everyone reluctantly left the building with the declaration that it was one of the most delightful dances, if not the most delightful, they had ever attended. All the members of the committee, and their assistants, deserve a great deal of credit; particularly Miss Watson, our most capable chairman, and Miss Sea-right. who worked with untiring energy and zeal. There can be no doubt of the fact that it was the “most successful Prom ever given,” and of the seventy-five couples there, we feel certain that we can get a large majority to confirm that statement. The present Sophomores will have much to do if the same is to be said without exception next year. Page Two Hundred and Ninety-five Pafe Tiro Hundred and Ninety-six M. M. C. S. Dormitory. Ws£mM M. M. C. S. Dorm., Any Date, 1915. Dear— Isn’t that an impressive way to head our letters? Everyone does it now, altho’ at first the Plebes were too homesick to even head their letters. One can’t help feeling sorry for them, but they do take life so seriously. One Plebe, whom I remember particularly, wept all over my new suit, but now she is so enthusiastic she even forgets to write home. It certainly was good to see all the girls again, and I know we laughed and chattered like magpies while we hugged and kissed the returning vacationists. No wonder the new girls felt so out of it all. It wasn’t long, tho’, before they felt very much at home. Spreads and stunts did help a lot to make us one big family. You can’t very well feel strange with the girl with whom you had been sharing the honor of eating marshmallows from a hatpin at a midight roast. And then our teas. Will you ever forget them? I was telling one wide-eyed Plebe about them, when she said. “Why, I should think a Sunday afternoon tea would be the last thing a man would want to come to.” Now, I ask you. what would Howard and Harry do if they could not come? Long distance calls and special delivery letters caused the biggest excitement at first, but now we take them as a matter of course and it takes something like our valentine announcement party to arouse every one. That surely was the most hilarious dinner we have had for a long time. Mid-year exams, are already a thing of the past and now that the Junior Proms are over, a peaceful quiet pervades the dormitory. However this is only from 7:30 to 10:00 and sometimes not even then. “Ting-a-ling, Saltsburg on the wire,” There comes the long distance message I was telling you about. There, she has gone downstairs, can’t you almost hear the girls teasing her? In just a minute Issie will be upstairs saying in a rather injured tone, Do you girls have lights out?” So I will really have to say-good-bye before the proctor comes to put the lights out. As ever, M. M. C. S. Page Two Hundred and Ninety-seven Design Dormitory. Page Two Hundred and Ninety-eight ; The 'Cfycstle ™ 2 ? DESIGN -oes- - § ■ - H3r� DORM TALES OF THE FIFTH AVENUE DORMITORY “What do you think Dormitory life will be like? Do you imagine we will like the girls? Oh, I wonder who my roommate will be? I do hope there will be a congenial bunch.” These were the thoughts which occupied the minds of the Plebes as they neared the Dormitory at 5045 Fifth Avenue on September 17, 1914. Needless to say, they were pleasantly surprised when they found that the Dormitory was not a refuge for college inmates” as they expected, but a large, airy, home-like place, inviting in every respect and occupied with girls just like themselves. You must remember that the greater number of the girls were Plebes and most of them away from home for the first time. Had they not been so busy dodging the hazing of the Sophomores they would probably have given vent to those homesick feelings that first week. The next week an air of affability prevailed, for trunks had been unpacked, rooms had been settled and surnames had been dropped. Organization was the nejet thing to be considered and at the first house-meeting a president was elected and house-rules were adopted. The social life was started by a small card party at which there were no outsiders. Then early in October the Dormitory gave its first event to which men were invited. That night was a happy dream to the Plebes for dancing, music and “eats” were the features of the evening. Laughter and chatter echoed through the house and a universal groan arose when the clock struck twelve. On Halloween the girls had a “stunt party” and many and various were the “makeups.” November 14 the girls entertained the girls of the Morewood Dormitory at cards complimentary to a Tea given at a former date. Just before Christmas vacation the girls were given a big banquet which all attended dressed as children. This was followed by a distribution of gifts. At the beginning of the second semester a Tea was given at which the faculty, all sororilies and fraternities were well represented. I lore's hoping that all coming events will Ik as successful as the George Washington dance.

STUDENT BRANCH OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS J. R. Cline OFFICERS President B. Schwartz . Vice President J. Outer C. W. Ginns . Secretary Treasurer REVIEW The ('.I. T. Student Branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers has passed through another successful and profitable year. This society began its second year of affiliation with the A. S. M. E. with one of its noted banquets at the German Club, which was a big reunion of alumni and undergraduate mechanical engineers. At this meeting Dr. Davisson of C. I. T. read an interesting paper on the Structure and Composition of the Atom. After this the members and guests enjoyed themselves at the tables with food and music. The spirit of good fellowship reigned thruout the evening. This spirit has been predominant thruout the entire school year. The membership is large, having nearly reached the fifty mark. Each member receives a subscription to the Journal of the A. S. M. E., which is recognized as one of the foremost engineering journals. The new club room in Machinery Hall is well furnished, and is supplied with engineering literature and indexed catalogues. The members have spent many social hours here. The speakers before the society have all been of especial merit, and their papers have all been high grade and of unusual value to the audiences. Among the l est papers read were those delivered by former members of the society and graduates of C. I. T. The society is obtaining the regulation pin used by all student branches. The fact that it is part of a great and important national organization has placed it among the foremost of permanent engineering organizations at C. I. 'I'.

During the last year we had a wonderful lecture by Dr. John A. Brashear on Color, which was of interest not only to our members but to the whole school as well. An exhibition was held in which it was possible for all students in Painting and Decoration to display their work to their friends and to the public at large. Each year sees one or two new events inaugurated until finally we hope for an entire schedule which will be both instructive and highly entertaining. MEMBERS H. B.

Starz Southey Johnson HISTORY OF INDUSTRIAL TEACHERS' CLUB It is gratifying to be able to record the work for another successful year of the Industrial Teachers’Club. The Club has now put two very prosperous and instructive years back of it, and has a very bright and promising outlook for next year, with so many new members added to our list. The club believes in wisdom as revealed in human lives, as well as in the pages of a printed book; in lessons taught, not so much by precept, as by example; in ability to work with the hands, as well as to think with the head. The general demand for vocational training and industrial training is evident enough, but only in a few industries is it yet clear just exactly in what that training should consist. We, therefore, try to gain the end by having social meetings in which topics bearing upon this arc fully discussed. The club promotes good fellowship, and successful effort. The social affairs from time to time at the homes of some of the members have been a decided success, and we hope for still greater results in the ensuing year.

Yea verily, clie boys made certain that Camp Louise Carnegie will be in usual place next autumn, judging from the number of stakes, tacks, pins, et cetera, which they employed to firmly fasten the scenery to the nether regions. Encouraged by Professor Stanton’s cheering “ words, ” the Senior and Junior Civils proceeded to open the camp by pitching tents, cutting weeds, housewarming the II. A. II., and further demonstrating their versatility by constructing a telephone from the Mansion to the instrument house. After dinner there were remarks by Professors Day, Mott and Stanton; from which was gathered the following, to wit: Rising Bell..........................................8:30 A. M. ('Pent No. 5, 7:15; Hamilton, 7:30, and no wash.) Breakfast............................................7:00 A.M. Work............................................... 7:45-12:00 A. M. Lunch................................................12:15 P. M. Work...............................................1 =00-5:00 P. M. Dinner...............................................6:00 P. M. One week after the pioneer Civil band, the remainder of the budding engineers arrived. With their advent the population was so increased that the camp took on big city airs. Coincident with the coming of Flanagan and Frey began the rough-house, the bedlam, and the mysterious ringing of midnight bells. The cold weather caused long seances of heating huge stones to serve as bedfellows, too. An invitation from Herr Seitz to visit hisdimelodcon free of charge produced a general exodus one night. Even the faculty went. Under the able leadership of Balsingcr, Freeport was treated to a rehearsal of Tech cheers and Amici, also a miniature snake dance. Other untoward events were the canoe trip of Lauer, Hines, and Cunningham, where they returned minus sundry vital parts of wearing apparel. Also the Virginia Reel in Balsingcr’s tent, during which Collin’s trunk was smashed by colliding with Pcntcrman’s face. And, Lest we forget! Professor Stanton proved the law of gravitation by suddenly arising from one side of a table and precipitating Roberts and Pcntcrman under a mixture of lighted carbide lamps, books, and K ram pert’s chemicals. Robert’s Sunday canoe excursions for the Ladies' Auxiliary, one lone M. M. C. S., were an enlivening feature. Collison did a John Bunny and demonstrated to the satisfaction of the movie man, that our new instrument house, and llyless mess house were innovations i be thankful for. Alas, everyone except Pop Thayer so far forgot their home training,” that they omitted to pay their respects to the mayor of Kiskiminctas Junction. We were genuinely sorry when we learned that the mayor was not at home when Pop called. Here’s hoping that we have better success in our social climb in 1915.

Scene: Final Exam, in Thermo. Time: First Semester. Prof. Thinks—Explain from molecular theory why in adiabatic expansion of hot water evaporation takes place and why in adiabatic expansion of saturated steam condensation takes place. Jos. Marshak—The molecular theory of gases states that the gas is bi-alomic as compared to the liquid being monatomic. Adiabatic expansion means that no heat is received nor lost from any outside source. Now in expanding thus a hot water particle, the heat lost goes to split the moil-atomic particle into the biatomic particle, and cause evaporation. But in expanding steam adiabatically, the heat lost increases the kinetic energy of the particles and that in turn accelerates their velocity. The velocity is increasing faster than the number of molecules and that causes them to collapse and finally condense. The more expansion there is, the greater is the amount of collapsing and consequent condensation. Act II. Scene: Re-exam, in Thermo. Time: Easter.

PUSHER BULLETINS Being unable to meet the demands of a local steel mill manager for a detail of bis plant’s improvement. the Engineers Society of Western Pennsylvania has appealed to the Junior Mechanicals for help. A machine called a ’’pusher” which is to deliver hot billets to a rolling mill by shoving them from a heating furnace is wanted. The layman will doubtless believe that a ’’pusher is something that pushes, lien: again, however, is one of those misnomers so frequently found in engineering work. I am us quote J. Cavett. Junior Engine Wiper. Consultation Engineer, and prominent educator. He said in |Ktri: To best grasp the idea of the general scheme and to better understand the details of a pusher, we might draw a simple analogy. The specifications call for the delivery of one billet per minute. Most of us can recall that Barnum said ’There is a sucker born every minute. ’ Therefore it follows that fundamentally a pusher is a sucker, which in engineering terms is nothing but a vacuum; the machine attaining its highest efficiency when a total vacuum has been obtained. So far we know that such conditions cannot be maintained, but the efficiency of the proposed design has been figured at 99.8%. Such an efficiency would be obtained by filling a steel cylinder 15 dia: x 60 stroke with the mentality sliown by the Junior Mechanicals on the Thursday before the Christmas vacation. ” It only remains to work out a few construction details of tins proposed design to make it a reality. This work is in the bands of the chief draftsman. Bowland and his able computator. Christiansen. The Junior Grease Removers expect to to have their machine in operation on or before May 30. 1915.

Came Dr. Esquerre, dapper and trim, Excitedly tapping his slipper slim; “Young ladies, school must be forsaken Or with the mumps you will all be taken.” 'Twas then we raised an awful shout, I’m sure it was heard far without. “What fun,” Cried one, “Two tests I’ll miss.” “ I’ve read,” She said, “Of quarantine.” Spoke one “When all is said and done Think of our work—the term’s but begun. ” The germs were busy and very thick, Soon seven in all were feeling sick, To have more ill they couldn’t afford, So the second floor back was used as a ward. But soon the invalids were up and around, Their appetites and voices they found; They sang all the songs they ever knew And here is one I’ve copied for you: “Each hour a day, each day a year In which we live in mortal fear. That morn will bring two cases more, And keep us here forevermore. “O memories of those dear days When mumps came to us in many ways, We watch in vain for mail and other things To break the spell, sweetheart, of quarantine. “Oh, you never can tell Oh, you never can say What the night will bring forth, Mumps are funny that way. You may think you stand the test But you find you’re like the rest. “Oh, you can not tell why, And you can not tell how. It may be by and by Or it may happen now. Germs arranged it long ago, So you never can tell, you know.” Page Three Hundred and Forty-seven The Cfrcstlc SI Page Three Hundred und Porly-ei[ht DEFINITIONS TO DATE Culture—A degree of mental development that produces tailor-made women, fantastically-sheared poodles and dock-tailed horses.

REFLECTIONS OF A LATE RISER Oh, the clanging and the banging of the bells, What a world of expectation their melody foretells, Of the breakfast steaming hot, Which to miss is e’er my lot, Of all physics problems clone, Which prepared I have not one; Of the intregals not learned, And just then my thoughts have turned To the theme I did not write; Well, I never do things right. So I rise with hesitation, And have sort of a temptation To call forth a headache awful, But I know ’twould be unlawful. So I rise near 7:50, Don my garments rather swiftly And go down and face the music which is sure to wait for me.

Q. E. I). Page Three Hundred and Fifty-one OS. THE FACULTY, AS SEEN BY THE STUDENTS There was a professor named James, Who taught Chemistry for some spare change; A Plebe said “Ahem,” He flunked him in ('hem., And then he called him some names. Wurts was another professor; lie invented the lightening arrestor. At near every lesson His favorite question— “What’s resistance—give in two words, sir.” Yet another professor was I lower, Who knew all ’bout a light-house tower; But to laugh at his speech Was a terrible breach, For the Plebe felt all Map’s acid power. Who knows not the instructor called “Geek”, Who worked his classes like Iieck? Just the same, ’twasn’t bunk, For ne’er did one flunk That took Math under “Geek” at Tech. Next comes a teacher named Lose, Whose temper the Germans call “gross,” It would rise very high When things went awry, But his bark was the worst of the dose. And now we turn to Prof Griffin, Who’s always most proper at tiffin. But when he’s at school And some poor dumb fool Asks for help—just watch Griffin stiffen. Quite different is jolly Prof Stanton; lie’s the one that runs the fall campin’; When you first with him talk Be prepared for a shock, His “French” could be much more handsome. Then Miller is another Tech Teacher, Who has you design many a feature; But do it right quick While his ideas stick, They’ll change in five minutes leisure. Page Three Hundred and Fifty-two Che Cftistie A TERRIBLE MOMENT On the eventful trip of the Wirepullers to Niagara a most thrilling incident of Pauline caliber occurred. Four dare-devil explorers were standing on the ice bridge at the base of the cascade when the thing occurred. One by the name of Featherstone chanced to glim a fair damsel far up on the cliff. To obtain a better view of the vision, he started lumbering backwards toward the glassy precipice, and also in the direction of whirlpools. Suddenly his “Hey, Chickee” ended in a screech, and poor Louie was clinging for dear life on the side of the mound. For a brief instant, and a mighty good thing, only for a instant did the remaining three hesitate. Our illustrious Garabaldi Picadillardo Tilly was struck with a mighty “Old King Brady” idea. “Benny,” he yelped, “Benny, lie down quick; and you, Kaufman, do likewise, and hold on to Benny’s pedal extremities, while I—I shall form the missing link to this great human chain.” With lightning rapidity snap boxes and lollypop were thrown aside, and orders carried out. Almost instantaneously Featherstone found Tilly’s feet in his phiz. “Say,” he quacked, “Get me a rope, I can’t tic those barges around myself, and besides— Oh! that awful odor.” “You poor simp, retorted Tilly, “ Don’t dare spoil the (ilium, but grab my feet.” The dazed boy did as he was bid, and after almost dislocating Tilly’s limbs, was hauled up safely. After Louie had been properly chastised in a fatherly manner, he was allowed to depart only on condition that the fairer sex should go unmolested by him in the future. B. H.

Dear Ben:— 1 meant to answer your last letter before I left the terrestrial regions but as you know 1 was not warned about my departure. It seems that my worldly deeds had been so watched that when Old Nick needed a new chief draftsman he called on me. I am quite well located down here, with so many of my old earthly associates. One reason why 1 am rushing this letter to you, is because I expect to see you and several other Junior Engine Wipers down here soon. Honest, Ben, it isn’t so bad down here as mortals picture it. We have had one trying situation though. Hades is sinking, has been for several years back, and it is feared that during a flood stage, the Stykes will overflow, thereby damaging the fires. A general meeting of the engineering corps was called this morning. At this meeting I met a number of my old associates, among whom were Professor 'Frinks, the chief engineer; C. W Sproull. his first assistant; Professor Stanton, field man; and several others. Many of the minor positions are filled by graduates from the smaller schools of the country, Harvard, Cornell, Yale, and Pitt. In this meeting Professor Stanton took the floor first and gave us figures of the amount that Hades had and was liable to sink, the heighth that the Stykes would be apt to rise at the next flood, and such dope. A Pitt man, thinking he had a chance to make good, immediately arose proposing to suspend Hades by giant cables. This, was of course, not considered because of the difficulty of finding Atlas to hold these cables. After reprimanding the fellow severely, Chief Engineer 'Frinks proposed the use of hydraulic jacks placed on concrete piers. Mr. Miller, who has charge of the natural waterways, suggested that dykes be built along the Furnace Province. Mr. Estep argued that if such dykes were built, it would be impossible to get coal to the furnaces from the barges, which would result in a state of affairs similar to that which we are now trying to avoid. To quote him he said, “Would not the furnaces undergo the same thermodynamic change of state from the absence of coal as from the presence of a substance which would reduce the calorific capacity of the boiler to a minimum, the water. I can see no difference between the change of Entropy from the lack of fuel and the superabundance of water.” “Old Nick who by this time was peeved, glared at Professor Sproull and roared, ‘Well, Sproull, arc you tongue-tied or have you gone hunting?” “Pardon me, I don’t believe I understood your question,” said “C. W.” as he calmly reached for another stogie, and adjusted his glasses to the right angle. “It wasn’t a question, snapped the Devil, “I wanted to know if you had thot anything about the problem at hand.” “Oh, well, if its only a question of raising Hell, why don’t you send for the rest of the Junior Mechanicals?” he calmly replied. This was the solution given the award. Hurrah, Ben! We’ll have another issue of the Groan, one that will last forever, printed on asbestos paper, and illustrated by Staples’ first semester cuts.
