An Appmiatfmt HARTLEY ANDERSON, physician, surgeou, public-spirited citi-O 1 zen, beloved friend of students and teachers, creator of the Depart-X. + nient of Student Health in this Institute, died September 0. 11)15. Ilis self-sacrificing devotion to his profession and to his distinguished position in charge of the West Penn Hospital brought its load of responsibility very heavily upon him. lie succumbed to the ravages of an insidious disease when in the prime of his manhood and on the threshold of a national career. The numerous contributions of Doctor Anderson in the field of research brought him many honors, one of the foremost of which was his being selected as one of the first Fellows in the American College of Surgery. This recognition would have been but the fore-runner of many European honors which undoubtedly would have come to him because of bis international reputation. It is hoped that in dedicating this student annual to Doctor Anderson, a small expression of the esteem in which lie was held by this Institute is evidenced. In a sense, therefore, it becomes a memorial volume, recalling the splendid service which he rendered to teachers and students during his tenure of office. Thousands of students who listened to his brilliant lectures and hundreds unto whom he ministered, many of whom he saved from death, will always remember the courteous gentleman, the kind friend, the scholarly physician and the skillful surgeon, whose cheerful words and happy smile always made the gravest moments bearable, and who held out a never failing spirit of hope to those who were in distress. Thoutrli we have lost our friend and teacher, his spirit still lives in the institution which was honored by his presence. J. Hartley Anderson, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Our position, as the most important factor in the development of the two great continents, carries with this distinction an obligation for us in view the future with some anxiety. War. deplorable as it must he, involves preparation, steadfastness and sacrifice. To prepare is essential, the method of preparation is even more important. Shall we do so vicariously or recognize that military efficiency demands concentrated proficiency in the science and art of warfare? By steadfastness I mean calm, consecutive working towards a given program which will ultimately bring results comparable with those attained hv the best organized Nations: and sacrifice meaning the abatement of luxury, greater economy in living, self denial, and a due appreciation of the necessity for clean and vigorous bodies freed from over in diligence. Do l In students of this Institute realize that il rests with them and their colleagues —the thoughtful educated students of our institutions of higher learning— to bring into cfi’ect this question of Americanism and thus establish a national unity which will make our Republic invulnerable? This question is of such profound importance that I send it to the Thistle at this time as a message to the students so that they may give it individual consideration. This number of the Thistle is dedicated to a man whose memory I revere, whose self-sacrifice approached the spirit of the finest martyrdom. May this memorial live forever in the archives of this institution. Sincerely your friend. March the twenty-third. Nineteen hundred and sixteen. I’atfc Forty 5 Page Forty-one Another year is passing. The long winter solstice is broken, and events that have made history at the Institute are now duly chronicled. Soon they will take their places in the permanent annals of old Tech's Hall of Fame. Spring is here. Its approach is heralded by a gentle knock at the door. Enter the chief chronicler, with the editorial smile, to whom is extended heartier greetings than these words convey. The “All School” Thistle is today one of Tech’s most cherished traditions. It is representative of every activity, giving praise for the old traditions and encouragement for the new; telling its story of physical growth in buildings and equipment, and the intellectual development of the student body. We like to look through your cheery glasses, Mr. Editor, and welcome with pride the I!)Hi Thistle and its energetic Hoard of Editors. Secretary.

The class that goes out in June, 1010, leaves a student registration behind it that is 23% larger than when it entered, the statistics being 2,70S for the year 1012-13, against 3,42,2 in 1015-10. In this same college generation of four years, the Faculty has increased from 184 to 221. the graduates from 87S to 1,400, the endowment from 85,700,000 to §8,050,000, and the following new departments have been established: music, dramatic arts, social work, printing, sculpture, and general science. During its course, the ('lass of 1010 has seen four new buildings added to the campus, and four extensions made to old buildings, the new buildings being Machinery Hall. Central Building, and the first two dormitories for men. and the extensions being the two wings to the Design School, the west wing to the Margaret Morrison Carnegie School, and the mechanical drafting lower to the Industries School. Some of the more important events which have occurred during the itcriod include: the first use of Camp Louise Carnegie, September, 11)12; the first observance of “Carnegie Day.

Only four years ago! Bui what ages ii seems since that day when sixty-eight shy girls entered the portals of M. M. S. Marion Picliel was chosen President. Under her enthusiaslic leadership we gained courage. The only memorahle events were the struggles over Physics Problems as ever—and two Plebe dances, where we had to join hands and tight for “lights after eleven! September, l!)12. (Chemistry was the most popular pastime of the Sophomore year. It lost some of its popularity when the old walls were knocked out and rebuilt, leaving our lockers far on the outside and work on the new wing caused chem operations to cease. In the mid-year we chose our major courses. Unfortunately we did not have the aid of the Psychology Department, so perhaps some wandered into the most alluring way. instead of following the less attractive but more suitable course. September. 1!M4. With our Junior year came many memorable events. We took our abode in new laboratories, bacteriological,biological.and chemical, and forthwith astounded our teachers with the brilliancy of our technique calling forth the epithet of Wooden Indians from our dear Professor Esquerre. During the fall of our Junior year, the acceptance of the House System aroused and strengthened tin personal responsibility of each one of us. In February came our Junior Prom—none of us will forget the plans we made, the work we did, and the fun we had. September, 1015. Long desired! We could hardly realize the honors now due us, nor affect the dignity which should be ours. Our Secretariats are becoming known for tiie rate at which they take dictation. The C. E.’s are famed for their skill in the designing of suitable apparel lor the American women. The Teachers’ daily plans are about to be printed and used as models in many school systems. Our Dietitians have means to offer which are wonderfully and fearfully made. We look back over the time sjkmiI in .Margaret Morrison—the timidity of our Plebe year, the sophistication of our Sophomore year, the bus i ness of our Junior year, and the concentration of our Senior year, regretting all mistakes, rejoicing over things well done, and with gratitude, deep down in our hearts for our Alma Mater.

Age 21 Pittsburgh Central High School Alpha Psi; Class Ring Committee (3); Social Committee (1) (2) (3); Junior Prom Committee (3); Social Chairman (4). Our Lila—such a pleasant combination of those “qualities” necessary for a successful teacher and those qualities which make life worth living. Oh, yes, they are quite different. Did she adopt the dignified and serious mien when she donned the white and glistening costume of the H. E. Department? Anyway, Lila sailed into her Senior year in possession of those attributes which make her among our best. As Social Chairman, Lila was a find. NELLIE BURROWS GREEN . Pittsburgh, Pa. Household Economics Teachers B.S. Pittsburgh Central High School Alpha Sigma Pi; Guild (2) (3) (4); Dramatic Club (2) (3). Poor Nellie! 'Phis is a hard, hard world with so much work to do; but somehow we get through it. When Nellie won’t she won’t, but we know she is not any older than the rest of us. Just the same, Nellie is there with the goods when it comes to managing Kingsley House imps, which proves that she is properly qualified for her chosen profession. MARION GROTH ..... Pittsburgh, Pa. Costume Economics Teacher B.S. Age 22 Allegheny High School. Marion is always a lady, very unassuming in displaying her talents, but dependable. Although she has taken the Teachers’ Course, the indications arc that the class will consist of only one pupil. Whatever she does, we are sure it will be a credit to her and to M. M. C. S. KATHRYN M. HAAG . . Williamsport, Pa. Secretarial B.S. Age 22 Williamsport High School Delta Delta; Guild; Dramatic Club; Class Secretary (4); Pan Hellenic (3) (4); Secretary and Treasurer Pan Hellenic (4). Kate was distinguished in her Plebe and Sophomore years by her love of Gym. But she did it. That is Kathryn Margaret’s way. Why shouldn’t she rave against that dreadful secretarial department when she arose so many mornings in the grey dawn to make those funny little marks in her notebook and stayed at school until late making equally queer sounds in the typewriting room. We don’t know when she found time to go to all those dances —sometime between the covering of the typewriter and the inscribing of the funny little marks in the dawn. Page Forty-eight The Class of 1916 MARY LOUISE IRWIN . . East Liverpool, 0. Household Economics B.S. Age 23. East Liverpool High School, Western College Delta Theta; Guild (2) (3) (4); Secretary Class (3) ; Vice-President Student Government (4). We cannot say all the good things we know about Mary Louise in this small space. She is a conscientious student, and has the right idea about student government. Her bright smile and quiet dignity have made every one her friend. She has achieved the art of accomplishing things without making a fuss about it. We feel proud to have Mary Louise for a friend, and recommend her to undergraduates as a worthy example of an ideal Margaret Morrison girl. MARY RUTH REISER . . Wilkinsburg, Pa. Secretarial Teachers B.S. Age 21 Wilkinsburg High School Theta Sigma; Guild (1) (4); Glee Club (1); Basketball (1) (2) (3); School Auditor (3); Pan Hellenic (3) (4). Much excitement! Ruth got here for roll call one morning. She really can do lots of things, even study a little now and then when she is a little afraid a bluff will fail to work. But when it comes to style and dancing, Mrs. Castle herself can scarce compete. MARTHA J. KROENERT . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Costume Economics B.S. Graduate Social Service Department, Pittsburgh College for Women. Martha joined us rather late, coming here from P. C. W. in the Junior Year. But we know what a kind accomodating person she is and that she mothered the PIcbes in a way that will not be forgotten in the Fifth Avenue Dorm, for some time. We believe that she will do her work in a very creditable manner wherever she goes. ELLEN LEWIS.......................Oakmont, Pa. Household Economics B.S. Age 20 Oakmont High School Alpha Psi; Guild (1) (4); Basketball (2); Athletic Association. “Say Kids, would you like to do something for me?” Considering Ellen’s age, we can readily forgive her seeming childishness and irresponsibility. Notwithstanding the fact that as a teacher she was criticized as having a very pleasing but unnatural voice, we can’t quite agree with the critic on the latter. Not only her voice but her personality is most charming, and she is a most likable girl. Page Forty-nine The Class 1910 MARY LOOMIS.................... Swissvale, Pa. Household Economics B.S. Age 21 Pittsburgh Academy Alpha Sigma Pi; Guild (i) (2) (3) (4); Dramatic Club (3); Athletic Assoriation (3) (4). It is of course too bad that Mary had to miss a year of school, but we arc very glad, otherwise she would not have been in our Class, and she is a most valuable member. She is little, but Oh! We who are strong and healthy are frequently doubtful about the outcome of things, and yet Mary comes out with apparent ease and always smiling. GOLDA MCCLELLAND .... Findlay, O. Costume Economics Teachers B.S. Age 22. Findlay High School Delta Theta; Basketball (1) (2) (3); Guild (4); Dramatic Club (2) (3) (4); Vice-President (3) (4); Dramatic Club Secretary and Treasurer (3) ; President Pan Hellenic (4) ; House Pres. (3). Golda is very fond of pictures and works best when she has one in front of her. It seems to serve as an inspiration. One is sufficient, however. Reading and writing predominate in her daily routine, Lowell’s writings being particularly favored. MARGUERITE BERTHA MENGES Pittsburgh, Pa. Costume Economics Teachers B.S. Age 22. Pittsburgh High School Delta Delta; Class Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4); Varsity Basketball (r) (2) (3) (4); Guild (x) (2) (3) (4); Dramatic Club (2) (3) (4); Misti ess of Wardrobe (3) (4) ; Athletic Assn. (3) (4) ; Assistant M. M. C. S. Tartan Representative (3) ; M. M. ( S. Tartan Representative (4). Tartan”!—Marguerite, as a circus manager, has attained the height of the profession. She has proven or disproven a theory by being most proficient along another line. As a talker, not a public speaker, just a talker, she is supreme. Her reputation is well established. VVe trust that she may put this virtue” to most excellent use. KATHERINE MILLER ..... Darby, Pa. Costume Economics Teachers Shamokin High School Millesvillc State Normal School FLORENCE M. MORNINGSTAR, Pittsburgh, Pa. Costume Economics Teachers B.S. Age 21. Jamestown High School Alpha Sigma Pi Small, but mighty! When Florence decides to do something she docs it. She has no great dislike for being with the minority. As a designer and maker of beautiful and artistic clothes, she has most astonishing ability. -I Mi Page Eifty The Class of 1916 MARION I). PICIIEL .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Household Economics Teachers B.S. AgC 22. Pittsburgh Central High School Guild (i) (3) (4); Dramatic Club (2) (3) (4); President (3); Athletic Assn. (2) (3) (4); Head of Basketball (3); President (4); Basketball (1) (2) (3) (4); Capt. Varsity Team (2); Class President (1); Junior Prom. Com.; Business Mgr. Shilling (4). When Marion graduates, M. M. C. S. will have sent out one of the finest students the school has ever had. Besides doing most excellent class work, she has worked, as only Marion can, for every activity in the school. To her efforts is due the success and growth of more than one organization. RUTH PONTIUS........................Canton, Ohio. Dietitian Household Economics B.S. Age 23 Canton High School Alpha Delta; Dramatic Club (3) (4); Guild (2) (3) (4); Shilling Board (4); Pan Hellenic Representative (3) (4). The jolliest girl in the whole bunch—truly that giggle would rouse one from the bluest blues, especially when it echoes down the hall after “lights out.” Square, dependable, generous to a fault, never too busy to help some one else. We can sec her now as the chief dietitian in some hospital. Lucky will be the person who gets sick and is sent where she has charge. MARY NORTH RIDE . . . McKeesport, Pa. Household Economics B. S. Age 22 McKeesport High School Glee Club (1); Guild (1) (2) (3) (4); Glee Club (2) (3) (4); Choral Club (2) (4); Athletic Assn. (2) (3) (4) ; Pres, of Guild (3) ; Vice-Pres. of Class (2); Thistle Board (3); Member of Senate (3); Pres. Student Gov’t. (4). Margaret Morrison without Mary Ride is too unthinkable. Mary simply radiates good will and enthusiasm. Of course she has strong principles and there is no fear in her when she takes a stand on any question. An ideal Student Government President, for, whatever reproof there is on her lips, there’s a smile in her eyes. We have talked a great deal about class spirit in the abstract—why not talk about Mary Ride. JANE DAVIS ROGERS . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Household Economics Teachers B.S. Age 20 Homestead High School Guild (1) (4); Dramatic Club (3) {4). Those who have not learned to know Jane well have missed a good true friend. Many times her willing helpfulness has been appreciated by her classmates. You can count on Jane whatever happens. Page Fifty-one The Class of 19lt ARM IDE L. SANFORD .... Carnegie, Pa. Secretarial B.S. Age 2i MacDuHic School The happy philosopher whose practice it is to take life too seriously! Breezy and witty and clever you will find her with a penchant for work —if it be to her liking. And tone? The green sweater gives that. But her future employer must be a skating rink manager. MAUDE EMILY SANFORD . . Akron, Ohio Costume economics Teachers B.S. Age 30 Akron High School Delta Theta; Student Senate (2); Guild (2) (3) (4); Thistle Board (3); Junior Prom. Com. (3); President Guild (4); Shilling Board (4). When we were Sophomores, Maude joined us, bringing with her, as it seemed, a large amount of very superior knowledge. As time went on we learned not to be awed by her speeches, and that her wise counsel was very helpful. We arc all very fond of her, particularly as the famous champion of the Special Methods Class. Much to our surprise we discovered recently that she has quite a poetic nature, full of contradictions and pleasant surprises, which heretofore had been concealed under a stress of work. Work never phases Maude. She simply does it, and she writes stories too. We congratulate the lucky “farmer.” GRACE G. SEARIGHT . . Logansport, Ind. Household economics B.S. Age 23 Logansport High School. Social Committee (2); Student Senate (3); Guild (3) (4); Athletic Ass’11 (2) (3) (4); Pres, of Class (3); Literary Editor Shilling (4); Pres, of Class (4). Our twice chosen President, though she protest strongly at her inability to fill the bill. But we knew whom wc wanted to lead our class through the Senior year! Grace is deliberate, wise, and helpful. She is sure she is right, then goes ahead, and nothing under the sun can stop her. Any opposition she meets is so tactfully overcome that the opposer is none the wiser. Grace has adopted a theory; do what you want to do, let the rest go, and take the consequences, which are always that the “rest” is also done, however mysteriously. AGNES LEONA SHARP . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Household economics Teachers B.S. Age 24 Allegheny High School Guild (1) (2) (3) (4); Student Senate (4). If you want a thing done, and well done, too, call for Agnes. A spirit of willing helpfulness and unselfishness has marked her career at M. M. C. S. She has climbed to the top of the ladder in our esteem and stands as a type of a genuine girl. Page Fifty-two The Class of 191G GRACE M. SHIELDS .... Chetopa, Kan. Home Economics Teachers B.S. Kansas State Manual Training Normal School Theta Sigma We feel that we arc to be congratulated that Grace came all the way from Kansas to join our ranks in the last year of college. We regret that we do not know her as well as most of our classmates, but she has certainly measured up to the mark in every good thing. FANNIE G. SPEER .... Wyandotte, Mich. Costume Economics Teachers B.S. Age 23 Wyandotte High School Alpha Delta; Guild (2) (3) (4); Dramatic Club (2) (3). Just as every girl in school is “dear” to Fanny, so is she dear to us. We can’t speak too highly of her as a girl of principle, ability, and sweet disposition. We only feel rather cheated that more of us haven’t known her better, so that we might appreciate her splendid qualities. CONSTANCE C. STOUT . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Secretarial B.S. Age 23 Allegheny Preparatory School Theta Sigma; Guild; Dramatic Club; Editor-in-Chief Shilling. Literary, dramatic, poetic! There is no reason why her orthographical manipulators should debar her from a journalistic career. It is fortunate for her that she has attained speed on the typewriter in order to keep pace with her rapid flow of thought. Highbrow! HAZEL M. THOMAS . . . McKeesport, Pa. Household Economics Teachers B.S. Age 21 McKeesport High School Alpha Sigma Pi; Guild (1) (3) (4); Dramatic Club (3) ; Athletic Ass’11 (3) ; Junior Prom. Com.; Senior Ball Com.; Pan Hellenic (3) (4). “If you don't eat butter, do you get an extra roll?” (Heard daily at the lunch counter.) This may be a suggestion as to why Hazel took the H. E. course, where it is said the “cats” abound. Next in importance in her schedule is sleep. Psychology periods were her favorite opportunities. After this, men, social functions, and Special Methods range in importance. A genial nature and happy way of doing things account for the fact that she is well liked by everybody. Page Fifty-three The Class of H'lG CHARLOTTE ELIZABETH WATSON Frankfort, Ky. Household Economics Teachers B.S. Age 23 Caldwell College Delta Theta; Glee Club (1); Choral Club (t) (2) (4); Dramatic Club (2) (3) (4); Guild (1) (2) (3) (4); Athletic Ass’n. (2) (3) (4); Stage Mgr.

What you all talkin’ about?” By the above method Charlotte never misses anything and acquires an immeasurable amount of information. Next to information, she loves entertainment. But at entertaining, Charlotte excels. As Social Chairman during the Sophomore and Junior years she was a huge success. Not a small part of the success was due to the fact that she brought into her work the charming hospitality of “down home.” HELEN WETTACH .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Secretarial B.S. Age 22 Allegheny High School Delta Theta; Glee Club (1); Guild (1) (2) (4); Class President (2); Athletic Ass’n (3). Did you ever see “Tommy” without that familiar giggle in Class, usually muffled with a cough? And when it comes to skating—any afternoon will do. As a good all round girl, ready for all kinds of fun, but capable of work when she can’t get out of it—Helen is “right there.” “Why worry about tomorrow,” is her motto, “We’ll learn to spell ‘laboratory’ then.” SARA DAVIS WOLFE...................Lcctsdale, Pa. Household Economics B.S. Franklin High School A paragon and a paradox! Dexterous fingers, scintillating humor, brilliancy of mind, captivating personality, rank independence, no restricting logic —all these has Sara, and gets away with them.

As the day of graduation approaches and we see the future before us, naturally, rest respective thoughts take possession. A review of the years we have spent in this institution, the life long friendships made, the education attained make us rest assured that our time has not been wasted. Ambition and ability to stand the pace have been especially noteworthy features regarding the class. We can see. most assuredly, where we have been lacking on several occasions, but nevertheless, we have stood for the best and highest ideals. Well do we remember the Trials” and our innovation, the “Court of Barbers.” The memory of the ten dollar hair cut will forever remain fresh. Banquets? There were! There were institutions that we will never forget. May be, it was just once a year, but we always had our annual get-together party. As a class we have introduced many novel features to the school along all lines. Every member has contributed his share and now as a class we can look back over a career that has attracted attention by its democratic actions, scholarship, as well as activity in athletics, publications, clubs, society, and kindred joys of college life.

He is here for business and is not idling away any of his valuable time. GEORGE A. SPACKMAN . Hamilton, Ontario Architecture Age 24 Hamilton Collegiate Institute. T. A. C.; 3rd Medal S. B. A. A. (Sounds of martial music-bugle in the distance.) Spackman front! The Kaiser and King George debate the possession of Canada. In spite of his great affinity for Dutch lunch and the Teutonic origin of his name, Spack’s devotion to the crown of England was very much in evidence. Spack was a hard worker and the horrors of charette never daunted him, since through his ability to command and manage a bunch of “niggers” he always whipped his work into shape to give him a few spare moments for fire works while the rest were sweating drops of blood. BERNARD SPIGEL ...................Norfolk, Va. Architecture Age 22 Maury High School. Southern Club; T. A. C. Almost any time one can hear, “Let’s have a little harmony” from some part of the room. It’s Pink again. He surely bears the marks of his home state. How can Norfolk do without him? Pink liked the ladies once upon a time, but lately he has shown a complete change. We’re sure that they’ll miss his jolly character when he leaves. Pink will make an architect, but never a lumber salesman. GEORGE L.

Entering the walls of Carnegie Tech a mere object unnoticed, Howard soon became a political power in the interests of his Alma Mater. He is the originator of the Design School Ball and through his untiring interest and effort as President of the Design School, he has established it upon a pedestal worthy of recognition. He doesn’t seem to understand what a mention” means in an archaeology, as he has only received three medals from the S. B. A. A. He has left school to seek the path of success, but never to be forgotten by his fellow students.

Our Caliber was shown when we beat the mighty Sophs away hack in 11)12: and. clinched when we heal the IMebes the next year, when we were Sophomores. The Junior year, however, was the year of years. Oh. year me! Three things stand out vividly in the background of a dim, dark past. First, we‘11 always remember the nice, pleasant Faster vacation we spent designing Pushers. Generators, and Bridges for the Engineers Society of Western Pennsylvania. Second, the Junior Prom, which was some Prom! Third, and by no means last, the fact that this year was a great, big “pipe. After vacation, we once more took up the cudgels in behalf of our Alina Mater. The annual honor system discussion consumed a good part of our time, with the usual result. Science stags. Science smokers. Science dances. Science track meets, etc., arc all evidence of our “pep. The Plebes had to he regulated too. We could go on forever telling of the doings of our fellows, but “Thistle” space costs $2.00 per page, and these are hard times.

Mechanical Engineering. B.S. Age 26. Organizer C. I. T. Economic Society; President (3) (4)1 C. M. E. Society (4); Chess Champion (2) (3) U). Our socialist friend, as Professor Willett calls him. And Harry knows his subject, too. As proof of this, the Senior Mechanicals are now nearly all Socialists. The C. I. T. Economic Society was conceived, founded and made permanent by this energetic young man. C. DAVID R. INGALLS . Glens Falls, N. Y. Mechanical Engineering. B.S. Age 27. Glens Falls High School; C. I. T.

The night men lost a good man when Dave took this step, though the day men are the big gainers thereby. As the Managing Editor of the “Gear Groan” and the leader in many of our other pastimes, David has given to us a splendid example of a real, live American. % 3$ Eage Seventy-two The Class of 191$ GEORGE A.

Yes, if anyone should ask you where Jimmie comes from, just say that lie is a product of the holy city, Wilkinsburg. He isn’t a brother of the notorious bank buster, although he would like to be. Jimmy is a good old soul, but his main difficulty is trying to keep track of his class schedule. lie is a great believer in personal liberty and docs not like the idea of being coaxed to classes by the ringing of the bell. WOI.F KATZMAN.........................Pittsburgh, Pa. Chem 1 caI Engin erring. B.S. Age 27. A Russian High School. Better known as “Kitty, Pussy, or just Wolf.” His fiery temper and opinions on the war (being a Russian) have been turned to advantage many times. Although a Russian, by now he shows signs of becoming a thorough American at some time in the future. JOHN EARNEST KIRK . . Taunton, Mass. Civil E ngineering. B.S. Age 21. Wilkinsburg High School.

His frequent visits to the dentist and his natural susceptibility to colds has won a place for him in the Dean’s office. Nevertheless, lie always “gets by” and his Tau Beta Pi key will fit the door to opportunity. A. N. KRIEGER . . . . . . Baltimore, Md. Civil Engineering. B.S. Age 21. Baltimore Polytechnic Institute. Chairman Entertainment Committee (3) (4); C. E. Society (2) (3) (4); F. E. A. Society (2) (3) (4) i Junior Civil Baseball Team (3). Mary Asbestos, alias Annie, as he is known to all men of his profession, was born in Baltimore, but he says he grew up to be a man all by himself. Before this aspiring lad came within the sacred halls of Tech, little was known about that city called Baltimore. Among his great works at Tech is the founding of the famous F. E. A. Society which was tried out in many English universities along the 16th century, by William J. Shakespeare, but proved to be a failure due to the lack of Civil Engineers.

Fat’’ is an important man, in addition to being a baseball “star.” As a New York man, he naturally swears by Elmira, no matter what the argument. As a metallurgist he delights in filling the Chemical end of the Science Building full of smoke from open electric furnaces and then blaming the odor on the chemicals. J. J. LAUDIG.........................Shubuta, Miss. Chemical Engineering. B.S. Age 22. Southern Club, President (4); Crucible Club, Vice-President {3); President (4); Cross-Country Squad (4); Plebe Track (1). Jimmie is familiarly known to many of his friends as “Doc,” probably on account of the great amount of research work he has done. A great deal of this has been applied to the feminine clement of sociology. He is usually serious; and in whatever he undertakes his intentions are good. WILLARD W. LAUER . . . Pittsburgh, Pa.

He is rather unique in that he never visits the college until along about the second hour, because his delicate constitution requires him to spend a great deal of time in the “Hay.” THOMAS J. B.

As an example of his ability, Speedy is known to have handed in reports two or three weeks before they were due. E. GRAY MERRILI...................Pittsburgh, Pa. Co m m ercial E ngineering. B.S.

For three years he has practiced the art of abstracting a whole lot of noise from apparently benumbed audiences and at the present day we can safely say that he is one of the most competent cheerleaders in this section of the country. Dink is a very excellent Spanish scholar, and when it comes to contracts, well, you may insert that as his middle name, as his knowledge of that subject is complete. FREDERICK K. MINOR . Waynesburg, Pa. Commercial Engineering. B.S. Age 26. Waynesburg High School and Waynesburg College. Fulcrum Club (2) (3) (4). Next on our list comes Minor, known to all by his genial disposition and his everpleasing smile. Even when the first semester grades in Spanish came out the smile beamed forth like the morning sun. Fred has never been known to have a grouch. Page Seventy-five The Class of 1916 GEORGE CARLTON MINOR . Clay, W. Va. Eleetrical Engincering. B.S. Age 24. Buckhannon (W. Va.) High School.

Really the picture belies our Optimistic Carl.” Inspired by the rugged mountains of his native West Virginia, he has earned 98% of his expenses while at “Tech,” a feat that only an undergraduate can appreciate. In the final analysis, Cary always says: Now the P. L. E. do it this way.” HARRY F. NEWCOMB . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Commercial Engineering. B.S. Age 22. Pittsburgh High School. Junior Student Government Committee; Senior Memorial Committee; Fulcrum Club (2) (3) (4). A Pittsburgh product himself, and he has a “Maid in Pittsburgh.” Harry is best know for his winning smile and his warm heart, and behold, when he wields a pen, the sword indeed must stand aside. A man to whom college spirit has meant being in the right place at the right time. His acts have not been done for public approval, but quietly, seeking only to help where hearts 'were heavy, he considered his duty done only when he had succeeded in bringing light into some under-classman’s life. A. II. PARTHUM .... Lawrence, Mass. ChemicaI Engineering. B.S. Age 27. Lawrence High School. Crucible Club (2-3-4) ; New England Club (1-2-3-4). “You know me, Al.” Noted for three things: his love for anything or anybody from New England, his knowledge of the Pittsburgh district (after Boston that was easy), and his determination not to merry until he has money enough —he is consequently in no danger. During the last year Duquesnc Gardens and the “Lake” saw more of him than his own roommate. MAURICE RESNICK . . Atlantic City, N. J. Mechanical Engineering. B. S. Age 24. C. M. E. Society (3) (4); C.

This indomitable young Southerner came to C. I. T. in September, 1913. He is among the very few who, coming to Tech after a year at another engineering school, have been able to finish the course in three years, and this despite the Dean’s prophecy to the contrary.

In the fall of 1912, this quiet, shy, little fellow made his appearance within the classic halls of Tech. Since then those halls have known but little of their ancient tranquillity. When a Plcbe needed ducking, when any inter-class athletic-contest was to be staged, or when to beguile the weary hours spent in the pursuit of Science, something needed starting, Bill was always on the job.

One glance at his marvelous record above proves this. Trautman came to Tech after serving four years as an electrician in the U. S. Navy where he no doubt acquired his aggressive and progressive spirit. He has had a lot of practical engineering experience on the Pittsburgh Railways and he is the man that put the student branch of the A. I. E. E. on the map. JAMES PATRICK TUMPANE . Adams, Mass.

Forced to drop out of school last year due to injuries received in football, he came back this year to add to the lustre of the Class of ’16.

Page Eighty-four The Class of 191 g fSpatonj nf JFtfth tfcar Ntybt (Elass XX llie closing chapter of a five year night course, it is customary to insert a brief history of the life of the graduating class. This takes the form either of a eulogy or of an elegy, praising those who have finished and mourning those who started, but did not finish. Leaving somewhat to the imagination our history is this: in 11)11, i:to names appeared on our class roll; in 1016, our class consists of ten members. What is the moral? Who rides may read. When the NIGHT is thick and the tracks are blind A friend at a pinch is a friend indeed: Hut a fool to wait for the LAGGARD behind; Down to Gehenna or up to the throne He travels the fastest who travels ALOXK. We, that remain, regret the loss of those others, but we know that through this loss we have made stronger friendships with one another and with the faculty, to whom we extend a grateful appreciation for their wholesome cooperation. Throughout our five years of work there have been pleasurable functions of special note, which have done much to smooth over the rough places. We have in mind especially those affairs of the present year, in which the existence of a social side to our life was amply demonstrated. To us graduation is not the exalted moment it may be to a day-class. It does not mean to us a change from study to work, from theory to practice. We have no vaulting ambitions, no superlative ideas of easy success: in consequence we are less liable to become discouraged iu attaining our practical ideals of service. Some call this wisdom, others call it experience. In closing we may say that we shall always be grateful to, and retain a profound regard for, the man who has made our work possible for us. On our part, we have no other idea than to reflect credit to our Alma .Mater in our future work.

From the first day far back | n l ,e fall of 1913 to the time of this writing, the Class of 1916 stands out as “the” class. Nor do we say “the” from the usual sentimental feeling which is apt to overcome a graduating historian, but from a cold analysis of the successful accomplishments of its members. In the first place, of the students enrolled at the time of our plebeian matriculation, we are putting forth the greatest jiercentage of graduates. Secondly, it was the class of 1916 which, for the first time in the history of the Institute, succeeded in bringing the Industries Schools before the attention of the other units l y its keen interest in general school activities. Athletically we were the mainstays last April in bringing the Inter-School Championship to our portals. And morally, we stand preeminent in having elected from out the entire student body to prohibit smoking in any of the Industries buildings, an accomplishment which, in view of the undergraduate’s usual love for tobacco, speaks for itself. As Commencement Day nears, retrospective thoughts arise, and a review of the past three years Hits quickly across our minds. The friends made, the obstacles overcome, the successes attained, all these rise up and make us feel proud that we have brought to a grand close our life at Tech. To enumerate events and activities would be but to write a large book. Hooted deeply in our memories are the happenings, achievements, and many trials which go to make up three years of a young man’s life at college. iOach man’s success is known to himself. Personal elaboration is not necessary when the success of each, rounded up in one great mass, sounds the note for which the graduating group will be remembered.

Industrial Teachers. B.S. Age 24. Monaca High School. Kappa Pi Sigma; Member Industrial Teachers’ Club; Secretary and Treasurer Teachers' Class (3) ; Vice-President Teachers’ Class (3). Carey seems to have no bad habits or idiosyn-cracies, therefore we hesitate, because we wish to tell the truth. One lamentable thing occurs to us. Jack is too fond of the chickens. He keeps his eye on all the good ones in the neighborhood. Why no! Jack’s chickens have feathers and take blue ribbons at the show. LOUIS HAAS...........................Pittsburgh, Pa. Industrial Teachers. B.S. Age 24. Member Board of Alumni Association. Louis found Tech so profitable that he came back again. It is probable that this will be the last time for judging by the amount of furniture he has made, we venture to say that he is contemplating a trip into the uncharted sea of matrimony. HERBERT F. MARTI .... Saginaw, Mich. I nd us trial T eachers. B.S. Arthur Hill High School. Kappa Pi Sigma; Member Industrial Teacher’s Club; Sec’y and Treasurer Teacher’s Club (2). How Marti got so far away from home without a guardian is a mystery, but it may be presumed that his little Michigan lady keeps him stocked with advice. Poor Marti! Just think, what if she should sec the picture of her Herbert joy-riding in Schenley Park that we are cruel enough to publish in this book. P. S.—We bet he doesn’t take the Thistle home. GROVER C. ROBBINS . East Pepperell, Mass. Teachers’ Course. B.S. Pepperell High School. Opheleum; Teachers' Club V. P. (2); New England Club Director (1) (2), President (3), Secretary and Treasurer (4); Football Squad (3) (4); Student Committee (1); Athletic Committee (2) (3). Robbins is his name, although, as is the case with most redheaded fellows, he is seldom called by it. “Red” was actively engaged in several occupations besides his school work; whether for pleasure or profit we have not been able to determine. One was arguing with the professor and the other was the building of furniture. When questioned as to the latter, he admits they are for his sister, but we have our doubts. Page Eighty-eight The Class of 191fi WALTER VV. STARZ .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Teachers’ Course. B.S. Age 29. Machine Construction Course Graduate, ’13. Kappa Pi Sigma; Member Teachers’ Club; Member Student Deportment Committee (3). Star , sometimes goes by “starts,” but wc hope never by fits. He also answers to another name which we are careful not to publish as per his request. He is our oldest inhabitant and by virtue of this and also of the fact that he was a C. 1. T. alumnus before the rest of us wore green caps, he has naturally become an official advisor. That his associations in the Teachers’ Course have been beneficial is evinced by the fact that his reputation has improved. FRANK J. WEI OLE . Fricdens, Somerset, Pa. Teachers’ Course. B.S. Age 26. California Normal School, Pa. Kappa Pi Sigma; Choral Club (2) (4); Glee Club (3) (4); Thistle Board (3); Vice-President Choral Club (4) ; Member Teachers’ Club. Weigle is one of those country lads who found the spellin’ bees too easy, so he came to the great city for to git him a cdicashun. He got it too, by cracky. Indeed they had to find him a place on the faculty and now his roommates don't know whether to call him Frank or Mister while the poor plebes hesitate between Professor and Doctor. Nuiltt 0parhrrfl ROBERT L. TROESCHER . Youngstown, Ohio. Industrial Teachers’ Course (Night) WILLIAM BUHL.......................Wilkinsburg, Pa. FREDERICK W. BOLAND . . Pittsburgh, Pa. GEORGE E. McCOOL .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Page Eighty-nine The Class of unfi lijjpFr (Class WILLIAM C. BAUM .... St. Louis, Mo Machine Construction. P. M. O. Club. Bill is one of those fortunate individuals that are not handicapped with a nick name. Possibly it is because of the dignity of Mr. Baum. William is an indicator and visiting card expert. Give him a card and a slide rule and with a few passes he will give you the results including the speed. ANTON C. BECK........................Aurora, N. Y. Machbie Construction. Beck has gained a reputation for making joints, that is, mechanically. The work down in Machinery Hall is mere play for Becky as he has previously served five years as chief engineer of a Careless Cross Compound Coffee Percolator. FRANK S. BLACK....................Meyersdalc, Pa. Power Machine Operation. Opheieum. Lawrenceville, N. J., Prep. Track Team (2) ; Football Squad (2) ; P. M. O. Club (3). Kaffee is a typical up state Pennsylvania Dutchman who calls coffee “Kaffee,” and Colgate “Kawlgate.” Like that gas engine down in the lab, he is very hard to get started, but once going he is bad. His favorite indoor sports are plotting curves and pinochle. C. M. BRAND.......................Baltimore, Md. General Equipment. Milton Academy. Avo Club; Baseball (2). Crip came to Tech from Baltimore and tried to show us how they wired hourses down there, but we had ideas of our own and didn't fall in with all of his. We will admit, however, that he knows something about it. Crip got his nickname last year when he broke his ankle ‘sliding second.” He had to wear crutches around for a while and nearly broke his neck several times down in the P. M. O. laboratory trying to crank a gasoline engine and balance on his crutches at the same time. There is evidently A Girl in the Heart of Maryland” as a look at the inside of the case of Crip’s watch would indicate. Page Ainety The Class of lOic EI.MER J. CARLSON..................Oil City, Fa. EI retried I E qu i p m ent. Student Organizations Chairman (3); Avo Club President (3). 1'his dashing young cavalier, who comes from the wilds of Titiute, owes bis good looks to the fact that there is a country called Sweden somewhere on the map. E. J. seems to have brought no heart with him to 'l'ech; but we understand that he at one time owned me, and it is easily accssible when on a vacation home. His chief ambition is to become co-instructor with Mr. Dodds in the Electric Shop so he can shunt voltmeters to his heart’s content. As president of the Avo Club, he has shown marked ability as a leader, and as a student he has always stood high in his class. HARRY VV. CARLSON .... Oil City, Fa. Electrical Equipment. Avo Club (2) (3). Harry came to us from Sidionite (Fa.) High. Blue eyes and flaxen hair constitute his physical attractions and he claims to be a direct descendant from the adventuresome Norsemen. He is an undisputed artist in the art of chewing tobacco in class and getting away with it. Frivolity is not considered in his curriculum, but nevertheless, he is always ready for a hearty laugh. WILLIAM LESLIE CARR . . Saranac, N. Y. General Equipment. Saranac High School. Bill has his name on the list as being a student at Tech, but is somewhat of a stranger in classes. He always comes to school when he has nothing else to do. He is some fusser which accounts for a great part of his time. He claims that at some time he will become a great man and those fellows who went to class while he spent his time in valuable slumber will come to him for advice on subjects requiring deep thought. ROSCOE W. COST . . . . Hagerstown, Md. Power Machine Operation. Class President (3); Musical Clubs (2) (3); Avo Club Secretary (3); P. M. O. Society Secretary (3) ; Entertainment Committee; C. I. T. Dorm Association; Purity Club. Blondy is the musical genius from Hagerstown, Md. He isn’t very tall, but he makes up in ability what he lacks in stature. As a member of the Avo Club, the Engine Wiper’s Gang, and president of his class. He is well known and well liked all over school. Blondv has been with the Musical Clubs two years. Anybody who hasn’t heard his “steel” playing has missed something. His friends say there is only one thing wrong with him—his feet don’t track. Page Ninety-one The Class of 1916 GEORGE W. EVANS . . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Building Construction. Peabody High School. Building Club. George “Honeyboy” Evans, the celebrated humorist, author of “Misfortunes I Have not Missed,” needs no introduction; if you don’t know him you must know his derby hat which he persists in wearing regardless of bribes, threats, or consequences. He has a most inventive brain—especially in originating little affairs to prevent the plebes from becoming homesick. HAROLD ELLSWORTH FOX . Union City, Pa. General Equipment. Student Assembly (i) (2); Avo Club (2), Vice-President (3); Aquatic Club (2); Purity Club (3); Edison Day Committee (3); Hockey (3); Student Senate (3). Did you ever hear of Union City? That’s where Foxy comes from. He is not very big, but he’s an awful fusscr. He always has a date on Sunday night, and he has a weakness for Peabody High girls. He is also a member of the “Five Hundred Gang” that hangs out in the Carnegie Union. The hardest job Foxy ever tackled is getting up in the morning. He has to tic his alarm clock to the head of his bed so he can hear it, and even then he is somethimes late for his eight thirty. RUDOLPH FREIMUTH . . . Duluth, Minn. Power Machine Operation. Avo Club (2) (3). Here poses Peaches, the hefty youth from Duluth. When he laughs the world laughs with him, and every mother’s son of us forgets for the moment to curse the day he was horn. We have our suspicions that he is a French spy, and a recent trip to New York in his submarine hat goes far toward confirming our suspicions. Here’s to you, Dutch, and may your matrimonial career be as long and lasting as our memory of you. (� l A. GARRETT . . . Clarksburg, W. Va. Electrical Equipment. Avo Club Treasurer (2) (3); Radio Club (1) (2) (3); Social Committee (3). Guy came to us from that little backwoods town ol Clarksburg, the home of moonshine and bandits. During his three years at Tech, he has taken part in all college activities including Hallowe’en celebrations, which are his specialty. He is considerable of a fusscr and seems to be a martyr where the fair sex are concerned. An Avo ( lub banquet without Guy would indeed be a quiet affair. He has done much to promote the welfare of Tech in general. Page i 'inety-two The Class of 1916 WILLARD F. GEIB......................Pittsburgh, Pa. General Equipment. South High School. Avo Club. Willard is one of the Tech delegation from the South Side, which is a place with a pugilistic reputation. This probably accounts for the mysterious gyrations Willard goes through every once in a while. He is very fond of gym, but in spite of this he still seems to remain rather plump. We have our suspicions that Willard is some fusscr, and we don’t blame the girls a bit for liking him, because it can’t be helped when you see him smile. He gained a wide reputation in class by his theory that red ohms arc better than green ones for resistance, but in some ways we can’t agree with him. WALTER C. GLOEK.LER . . Pittsburgh, Pa. General Equipment. Fifth Avenue High School. Football Scrubs (x); Avo Club (2) (3); Publicity Manager (2); Chairman Student Senate (3); Anti Smoking Committee (3) ; Industries Minstrels (x); Avo Club President (3). Walter Cornelius Gloekler came to Tech after graduating from the Hazelwood Institute of Bullology. There he received some valuable training which has helped him through many tight places while in Tech. He knows all about nearly everything and if he does not know he can tell you anyway. It is not necessary to prove that he is good because he will admit it. Gleck has worked hard for the school activities while at Tech. As president of the Avo Club lie made good and did much for the welfare of this organization. He is generally considered a good fellow and one whom anyone should be proud to know. ARTHUR S. GREEN . . Clarksburg, W. Va. Butiding Construetion. Building Construction Club (3). The only man in the class who has the nerve to wear cuffs without trousers, we mean trousers without cuffs. He is also noted for the fact that he found a fallacy in the derivation of the formula for reinforced concrete beams. Once he was known to smile in Mechanics class, but as we depended on him for the problems this was overlooked. Mr. Green believes the way to spell success is W-O-R-K. PAUL B. GRIFFIN ..... Pittsburgh, Pa. General Equipment. Avo Club (2) (3). Griff, who hails from Marion Street, Pittsburgh, is known around Tech as the lightweight pugilist of the General Equipment Class. He engaged in many long severe bouts with a certain graduate of the University of Bullology and it seems that the honors are yet undecided. Page Ninety-three The Class of 1916 CONRAD F. GUENTHER .... Elco, Pa. Machine Construction. Skinny came to us, a poor innocent cuss, in the fall of 1913 from Elco, Pa. Since then, he has acquired much knowledge, especially in the art of raising a misplaced eyebrow and in the ways of the female sex. He would lead us to believe him to be an authority upon this latter subject. Here’s wishing him luck—may he be enlightened before it is too late. EDWIN J. HEDLUND ...... Erie, Pa. Machitte Construction. „ Age 23. Tech Mechanics Club, Vice-President (3) ; Upper Class Vice-President (3); Middle Class Treasurer (2). Dear old Eddie, from Erie, Pa., says that the world is centered in that town. Pittsburgh, he says, is known the world over as being so and so many miles west of Erie. His greatest failing throughout the three years at Tech was to have his lessons prepared every day. Eddie, if we prophesy correctly, will be the honor student of the Class of 1916. Good luck, Eddie, and may you never forget the happy hours we spent in Bisbee's Chem Lab squirting water at each other. MARVIN M. HILLS .... Mill Hall, Pa. General Equipment and Installation. Age 20. Lock Haven State Normal School. Member Club-room Committee (3); Carnegie Tech. Dormitory Ass’11., East Dorm; East Dorm Champion Football Team (3). Marvin is not fat, he is just nice and plump. He graduated from Lock Haven Normal and entered Tech in 1912 where he gained fame as a chalk thrower and checker player. The old saying, ‘‘No one loves a fat man,” does not seem to hold, as he has won many friends through his sunny disposition. One of his peculiarities is his liking for gym, and almost any day he can be seen making his three laps around. KENNETH H. B. JULIAN, Montreal, Canada. Mechanical Drafting. Age 21. Victoria School, Montreal High School. Glee Club (2) (3); Secretary Student Senate (3); Thistle Board (3); Hockey (3); Executive Committee, Tech. Mechanics Club (3). The Kid, also known as the King of Canada, hails from Montreal, in the land of icebergs. For some reason or other, the Kid has never been induced to argue on the war, but believe us, he sure does uphold his country when it comes to its winter sport—Hockey. Lately his visits to Knoxville have been more numerous and increasing in duration. We note this through his absences at eight-thirty classes. Cage Ninety-four The Class of 1910 RAYMOND D. JUNKINS . . Union City, Pa. Power Mac hint' Operation. Age 21 • Union City High School. Radio Club (i); Avo Club (2) (3); Student, A. I. E. E.; Purity Club; C. I. T. Dormitory Association (3); Club Room Committee (3); P. M. O. Society (3). Deck comes from a little burg in the northern part of the Keystone State called Union City. You have to use a telescope to find it on the map. Me is one of the engine wipers that hang out down in the lower end of Machinery Hall. Ask him about his new method of cranking a gas engine. It has the self starter beat a mile. Deck is a great favorite of the fair sex, judging from the number of photographs which adorn the walls of his room. His roommate often complains of the late hours, or rather, the early hours he keeps, and that same gentleman can often be heard about three A. M. remonstrating with Deck in no uncertain tone of voice. EMMANUEL F. KOCH . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Machine Construction. Hutch won his title by honoring a Market Street butcher shop with his presence one vacation as the result of a wager. He has been in demand in like establishments ever since because the shop’s business increases three-fold, or at least three times as many fair customers visit the place while he is there. DONALD R. KOONTZ . . Waynesboro, Pa. Machine Construction. Age 24. Waynesboro High School. Mandolin Club; (2); Athletic Committee (2); Choral Club (3); P. M. O. Committee. To be frank, Donald is somewhat of a wild and rough person. Like an unpolished diamond, he is hard, but the value and quality is there. He is also some philosopher, as he has figured out exactly why a person feels blue on Sunday instead of Monday, in Pittsburgh. CLEMENT C. KURTZ . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Machine Construction. Peabody High School. Tech. Mechanics Club (3). There’s “Clem C. C.” with nice round face, He surely likes the girls; And jollies all with pleasing grace As in the dance he whirls. Page iXinety-five The Class of 1916 LAWRENCE S. LIGGETT . Pittsburgh, Pa. M ec han't cal Construction. Lawrenccville School. Tech. Mechanics’ Club, Secretary and Treasurer; Assembly Executive Committee; Ophclcum Fraternity. Brownie, the only benedict of the class, is the soul of politeness, despite the fact that he is inordinately fond of a fiery red necktie. lie is a social lion of the school and deserving on the appellation of Sunny Jim. He is also known as the Father of the drafting class, which title he earned through his ability to display their incapacity. HERMAN E. LOEFFLER . Beaver Falls, Pa. Building Construclion. Age 23. Band (3) (2); Secretary and Treasurer (3); Vice-President Builder’s Club (3). Edward emigrated to this country from Beaver Falls in the fall of 1913. In his native land Ed had quite a reputation as a contractor, having raised house on half of the farms in Beaver County. We respectfully direct your attention to his curly hair, he denies all affiliation with Ed. Pinaud,-Red Seal, and Swamp Root. Some day we expect to see Ed. President of a big construction company. His favorite expression is, “Heavens Katv,” and his long suit was getting an early start while at Camp Louise Carnegie. WALTER O. LORD . . . Mt. Carmel, Pa. Machine Construction Coursi Age 23. Mt. Carmel High School. Tech. Mechanics’ Club (3); The Twenty Club (3); V. M. C. A. (3); Plebe Sophomore Banquet. Red Lord is sure a wonder, Mr. Colmery will tell you so, For he has trained menageries; Did he train our red head? No. GEORGE A. McKEE . . . McKees Rocks, Pa. It u ildin tj Co nstru ctio n. Age 19. Building Construction Club (3). Old Col. McKee, of McKee’s Rocks, one of the original F. F. M. R.’s. On matinee afternoons he is often stricken with strange maladies; however, as the hour of 2:15 approaches he becomes cured as if by miracle. One of the most notable events in the Colonel’s career was his punctuality at classes. (Viz. October 15, 1914.) Page Ninety-six The Class of 1916 LEWIS P. MOON.......................Ambridge, Pa. IIu ildiny Constru ction. . Age 21. Drafting; Mechanics’ Club. Lewis hails from Economy, Pa., but lie shouldn’t be judged by the name of the town he hails from. Louev had an inclination toward blonds, but lately he has been dilating on the ethereal beauty of a certain brunette of Ambridge. Watch out, Louey, Leap Year. JAMES M. MOORE . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. General Equipment and Installation. Age 20. Peabody High School. Cross Country Team (2) (3) ; Track Team (2); Avo Club; Student Assembly Treasurer; Athletic Committee, Thistle Board Treasurer. Quiet and sincere, ever friendly and helpful, he has won the deepest regards of all his classmates. His genial disposition, his frank smile, and his capacity for liking everyone, make him a mighty Hue fellow. He has always had a deep affection for Maggie Murph, but, oh well, why not. Jimmie has well represented his class, both in athletics and in school activities and we feel that he justly deserves the Carnegie stamp. MARTIN F. MURPHY, JR., Schenectady, N. Y. M a chine Construction. Age 21. Student Senate (2); Club Room Committee (2); Vice-President Student Assembly (2) ; New York State Club; 'I'ech Mechanics’ Club; Opheleum Fraternity. Since Murph left Schenectady last Christmas a wonderful change has taken place! She is now-parting her hair in the middle. It requires a powerful stretch of the imagination to picture anyone whose name is Frances and who parts her hair in the middle bearing the name of Murphy. Murph was quite active in school life her first two years, but this year she caused a wild sensation by appearing in the Student Assembly February 4th. Murph assures us, however, that it was an accident. W. E. MURPHY .... Binghamton, N. Y. Machine Construction. St. John’s, Jersey City, N. J. N. Y. State Club; Newman Club; Tech Mechanics’ Club. The mascot of the drafting class. Calls to the name of Little Bill. Ilis favorite pastime is blowing about the Irish or telling what a great town Binghamton is. Little Bill says that there are two things he has learned since coming to Tech, to use the weed and to blow rings. We are glad he has learned something. Her name is Leona. % Page Ninety-seven The Class of 1916 FRED R. OEFINGER • • • . Meriden, Conn. Maehinc Construction. Age 24. Monson Academy, Monson, Mass. Football, Varsity (1) (2); Varsity Baseball (t) (2) (3); Seannachie, Secretary (3); Class Vice-President (2); New England Club, Vice-President (3); Mechanics’ Club; Ophcleum Fraternity; Rules Committee(2). Ask where God’s country is, he’ll say Meriden, Conn. Everybody knows Fritz, who, with his taste for writing letters daily, beats to a frazzle any scenario producer ever put before the public. Fritz likes to mix sand, tilt the bull ladle, imitate Charley Chaplin, play marbles, old maid and puss-in-boots, but his chief diversions are starring at second base in the springtime and then ripping through the line as full-back along in October. CARLETON A. PARKER . San Francisco, Cal. Power and Machine. Age 22. Plebe President; Board of Control (3); President P. M. O. Club (3); Puppet and Bagpipe Boards; Ophcleum Fraternity. The three main failings Parker has are his ability to make noise, his praise of California, and his general shyness among girls. On any cloudy day ask Parker how he likes Pittsburgh and he will answer, “Fine, but out in California the sun is shining,” and then he will start to rave. CARL FREDERICK PETERS, Schenectady, N. Y. Machine Construction. Foundry. Age 23. High School of Commerce, New York City. Ophcleum; Class Secretary (1) (2); Class Historian (3); Tartan (1) (2) (3); Representative (1); Industries Editor (2) (3); Bagpipe (2); (3); Editor (2) (3); Minstrels (2); Student Activities Board (2) (3); Vice-President (3); President (2); First Scholarship Prize (2); Mechanics’ Club; New York State Club; Student Assembly (1) (2) (3); Secretary (1) (2); President (3). Pete, or Jed, as he is generally dubbed, hails from Schenectady, Port Chester, and Yawkville, Noo Yawk, as he calls it. Always speaking of “when I worked in the manager’s office” and of how it was done over East,” this boy with the porcupine hair-cut and shell glasses wiggled himself into almost every imaginable office on the calendar, from Beanery cashier to President of the Industries School. MILLARD C. POFFENBERGER, Portsmouth, O. M echo nical Co nstru ctio n. Age 22. Now Poffie is a handsome chap With a very pleasant air; But he does not care a rap(?) For the other sex so fair. Page Ninety-eight The Class of 1916 LEIPER M. ROBINSON . . Richmond, Va. Building Construction. . . Arc 23. Virginia Polytechnic Institute. Vice-President, Southern Club (3); President, Building Construction Club (3); Dormitory Scholastic Committee (3). Although hailing from the Old Dominion, Robbie calls himself a cosmopolite, and admits that he knows where the best free lunches are served in fifteen states. Among the characteristics that five years of civil engineering added to his personality, is an imperturbability that puts the sphinx to shame. However, it was once reported that he was moved by the stirring words of a policeman in East Liberty one night. He is always busy; besides studying Building Construction, lie attends night classes at the Duquesne Garden with a regularity that is commendable. MYRON SADLER .... Puyallup, Wash. Machine Construction. Age 21. Puyallup High School. Tech Mechanics’ Club. A Young man jolly, too, and wise, Filled to the brim with fun; To every crisis he will rise With joke or jest or pun. EVERARD V. SMITH . . Cedarhurst, I.. I. Machine Construction. Football Scrubs (2) ; Varsitv Football Squad (3). Gunner, sometimes called Gunboat, won his fame by making 49 bullseyes out of a possible 50 in the annual spit ball contest. 'Fhc aim and accuracy with which he speeds a spit ball on its deadly mission is equalled only by a Mexican sniper. HARDY WALDO SMITH . Block Island, R. I. Stationary Engineering Age 20. East Greenwich Academy, East Greenwich, R. I; Block Island High School. Basketball Scrubs (1) (2) (3); Baseball Scrubs (0 (2) (3); East Dormitory Football Team (3); East Dormitory Basketball Team (3). After frequent episodes of those famous swordfish hunts off Block Island, Smith was granted the title of Swordfish for his bravery in springing such talcs. Page ninety-nine The Class of 1916 SAMUEL E. SNYDER .... Pitcairn, Pa. Madmit Construction. Age 20. East Liberty Academy. Mechanics Club; Phi Delta Xi. This dark-haired youth with winning smile Is one you’ll rarely find; His style is gay, his air is bold, He will not be left behind. REUBEN J. SOLI MON ... Hartford, Conn. Poitser Machine Operation. Hartford High School. Mandolin Club (2) (3); Choral Club (3); New England Club; P. M. O. Club. Old Solly is the chcerfulest of the cheerful. No banquet, rough house or funeral is complete without the presence of Reuben. He has a spontaneous wit that would do credit to an Irishman. Solly hails from Connecticut and is full of that New England stuff. HAROLD C. STEADMAN . . Union City, Pa. Electrical Equipment and Construction. Age 19. Union City High School. Avo. Club (1) (2); Electrical Parade Committee (2); C. I. T. Dormitory Association (2); Purity Club (2). In September, 1914, there breezed into Industries a specimen of the race humanis tagged and consigned in care of Carnegie Tech, U. S. A. In the course of time it was discovered that the specimen answered to the name of Harold alias Doc. Doc proved his worth to the whole class and is at all times a genial, easy going fellow whom all arc glad to know. His one hobby is kidding Dodds. Ilis only bad traits is his love for spoiling Anderson’s dinner by dropping pepper in his coffee. Doc is bound to make his mark, for he possesses all the requirements necessary for success. RAMSEY STOBIE .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Building Construction. Age 20. Fifth Avenue High, East Liberty Academy. Building Construction Club. When young, Rammie was noted for his marked resemblance to Henry VIII., people who had a grudge against Hen noticed this and always reminded him of it. However, in spite of this he has made quite a reputation as a humorist, and is a devotee of the musical drama. He is undoubtedly the joker-laureate of the class. An irritable person, after listening to a few of his jokes, would be ready to go home and throw his grandmother in the fire. Page One hundred The Class of 1910 GEORGE W. STRACHAN . . Banksville, Pa. li ii i I ding Construction. Building Construction Club. Between the First M. E. Church and the Rev. I)r. K. Sunday, they have darn nie ruint George. Time was when he would carry matches, and all that sort of a thing. Now even the mention of the word “garter” causes him to blush. However, we have hopes. Only yesterday he confessed to have been calling on a young lady! “Oh! IIow could you, George;” JOHN B. STRAUB JR. . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Age 21. Hector hails from Troy Hill and is well known as the one who quells riots. Hector is about six feet six and broad in proportion, with a heart as big as himself. The impression has been spread that Hector is a German spy. He is, in fact, a strong adherent of the Kaiser’s. JAMES K. WATKINS . . . . Smithton, Pa. Power Machine Operation. Va I pa ra iso, P repa ratory. Watkins is speed personified. He is the fellow that put the R. P. M.’s in an engine. The only times James is quiet is when he is asleep. Drop in any time in or around Machinery Hall and see him—asleep. JAMES RUSSELL WATSON . Ashtabula, Ohio Machine. Construction. Age 23. Joluisonburg High School, Pennsylvania State. If quietness were a hole, Watson would be a sieve. They say he uses a plush cover on his peen hammer. “B. Quiet” glides about his work like a cloud of blue smoke than a regular man. But like all very quiet people, when he makes a noise it is a real noise. One day he touched a match to a hydrogen generator. Page One hundred one The Class of 19 lt JOHN C. WEIDERT .... Wilcox, Pa. Power Machine Operation. Age 21. Wilcox High School. Clare is the champion of question askers. He has received many medals and scars for the wonderful line of questions he possesses. He has a list of favorites that contain some of the following: Is it hard?” “How long will it take?” Is she pretty?” Have you got five dollars?” “How soon do we eat?” EDWARD F. WILSON .... Franklin, Pa. liuilding Construction. Age 19. Parnassus High School. Mr. Wilson admits that he has the most variegated forms of insanity of any man in the class. Disdaining any such simplicities as the fourth dimension, or quadric surfaces, the Doctor finds more weighty substance in Karsavina, Turgcneff, Dosticvsky, and Nijinsky. He quotes Kipling one minute, and Kidder the next. He is also one of the hydrogen derivatives, which is perfectly obvious from the above photo. (Loaned from his private collection) C. RAYMOND YEAGER . . . Reading, Pa. li uilding Constru ctio n. Age 21. Reading High School. Builders Club, Secretary and Treasurer (3) ; Dormitory Association (3); Purity Club. C. Raymond once heard a wise man remark that there were great chances, and lots of openings at the top in building construction. After three years of arduous study he has concluded that the gentleman referred to accident policies and air-shafts. However, C. Raymond has about all the underholts in the building game, he can tell you how many piles go in one hole, or how many wheels a wheelbarrow has, with lightning-like rapidity. He is the only Building man who had nerve enough to attend an alleged banquet (censored) recently, and has been ashamed of himself ever since. He is a great reader, in fact it is surprising that one could spend so much time in reading and survive. ROY H. ZEILMAN .... Springvillc, N. Y. Machine Construction. Age 21. Griffith Institute. Ophelcum Fraternity; Tech Mechanics’ Club, Secretary (2) (3). Now comes our class aristocrat, Yet do not think him proud; At heart he’s sure a democrat, Hail fellow with the crowd. Page One hundred two The Class of 1910 Nigljt ( rabuat 0 CHARLES ANDERSON . . . Duquesnc, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Chuck” entered C. I. T. with a noble ambition to some day enlighten the mechanical field. Toiling (?) in a machine shop by day and riding in palace street cars (?) from Duquesne in the evening was bis fair lot while training the gray matter. Chuck will undoubtedly come across with some startling discovery which will make Duquesnc famous. More power old boy. W. EARLE BLACK . . . McKees Rocks, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. He is a jolly good fellow whom we all like. His daily occupation has made him acquainted with the joys that come to a fellow who is working at the machinists' trade. His studies at C. I. T. have made him familiar with the mysteries connected with a course in Mechanical Drawing and his earnest efforts now entitle him to a certificate in that course. EVERETT BRAKE ..... Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. He is now rounding out his fourth year as one of our classmates. Some of his studies trouble him more than others, but when it comes to Mechanical Drawing he is right on the job. Two things in which he specializes arc the arts of boxing and love-making. We know that he is a specialist in love-making, for it has been learned that Dan Cupid has shot his dart and the date of the ceremony is not far distant. WILLARD P. BRAUN ..... Bellevue, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Behold the Beauty of Bellevue.” We do not know whether everyone from Bellevue is good-looking or not, but it has sent Shorty Braun to us as its best specimen. The only crime he is supposed to have committeed, and we are sorry to state, still commits, is his persistent idea that he knows everything. If you don’t see him, just listen when there is an argument, and you will soon hear him. He’s right there. Page One hundred three JOHN E. ECKMAN .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. He is the father of our class, but cannot be compared with the Father of Our Country. He is a very good looking gentleman, only you have to look twice to see him. Since the first of the year hr has been walking home from school, and he made the remark that he was afraid of the ladies taking advantage of Leap Year, but we think he is perfectly safe there. YVM. C. ELLIOTT, JR. . . Telephony. From Dav C. I. T. Industries. Pittsburgh, Pa. Age 21. The Class of 1016 MICHAEL BUTKO.....................Braddock, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Yes, a broad shouldered boy is he, better known as “Bunco.” This makes no difference to him, for the fair sex likes him just the same. If he had attended school as often as he did pink teas and dances, he would have been the star of the class. As to being mouthless, he is all there when it comes to studies. FRANK R. EBERT....................Dormont, Pa. Sheet Metal. After four years of practice at C. I. T. at night, he is going to venture into the busy world. He says, “Columbus took a chance, so why not he.” We agree with him in that respect and hope that his future may be a bright one. Page One hundred four The Class of 1916 CHARLES HERGENROEDER . Pittsburgh, Pa. Telephony. GLENN W. HOLLY . . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Electric Wiring. Age 32. H. L. HUTCHISON .... Pittsburgh, Pa. Structural Drafting. JOHN E. JOHNSON . . . . McKeesport, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Johnson, better known as “Yenscn,” erstwhile musician, athletic and draftsman, greetings: Four years in the night school of C. I. T., together with the ride from McKeesport to Pittsburgh on the Pittsburgh Railway Co.’s Fords,” that ride like chips on a stormy sea, and are always ventilated in zero weather, fits him for the success which his classmates wish him. Page One hundred five JACOB C. KARLE . . . New Kensington, Ha. Patternmaking. He is better known as “Jake,” just plain Jake. When it comes to studying English, he gets along well; about his work in the Pattern shop, we know it well, but we hope for nothing but the best. He is getting ready to make his debut into society, so wc wish him the best of luck. LEO T. KELLY ....... Pittsburgh, Pa. Building Trades. This gentleman, better known as the “Wild Irishman,” is about to take his departure from C. I. T. From what we have learned, he makes an “awful” hit with the fair sex, for he is very well versed in the latest steps in dancing. But when it comes to studies, especially Strength of Materials, he is right there, for sometimes we thought lie knew almost as much as the Prof. CARROLL F. KENNEY .... Braddock, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Member Student Activity Board. He is very apt in the art of tripping the light fantastic and therefore is well thought of by his lady admirers. Regarding his activities, he is right there, especially when it comes to smokers or anything in this line. He is a member of the Student Activities Board and has served very faithfully. We predict a bright future for him. The Class of 1910 ALCWYN JONES ..... Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. He has been with us for the past four years and now at the time of parting comes out with the declaration that he will, someday, be a millionaire. All we have to say about that, is that it is Mostly All Air.” We have also detected a far-away look in his eyes, of late, which even the most skeptical admit “looks bad.” Here’s hoping she’s yours, Jones. Page One hundred six ALBERT J. MacMULLEN . . Honesdale, Pa. Machine Construction. He is now about at the end of the road of school life and is ready to go out into the world and fight life’s battles. We cannot predict decisive victories for all his battles, but we hope for nothing but the best. JOHN J. O’LEARY ..... Pittsburgh, Pa. Electrical Equipment. Age 22. JOHN OWENS .......................... Wireton, Pa. M a eh in e Co ns true! ion. He seems to be a very quiet chap, but he gets there just the same. He is about ready to let loose of his knowledge of machine construction and no doubt will be able to make his mark. We wish him good luck and prosperity. The Class of 1916 ALBERT F. LIEN EM ANN . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. We have in our class a gentleman by the name of I.icnemann. Red” for short. He, our chemical engineer to be, is very good in Trig., but his “Strength” is falling low, and his English is all the go, and before he gets through with his Chemistry up high with the “angles” he will be. Page One hundred seven The Class of 1!HG PETER SCALICE ..... Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Peter, the Great, Early in life evinced a Tendency to yank the Entrails out of Reading’, writin’, and 'rithmetic. Such a disposition, Combined with the Ambish to win the “Tech” Laurels, could but end In one way, i. e. “class Sixteen.” Exeunt. RICHARD G. SEARSON . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. 1 echanical Drafting. His name is Scarson, “don’t chcr know,” and he didn’t come from Germany. He is a very clever chap, bah Jove. He is always smiling like a drowning millionaire. It is with a sense of sadness that we part at the end of the year, and here’s wishing him success and happiness as lie makes life’s journey, single, double, or otherwise. TOM T. SHELTON ..... Versailles, Pa. Ma chin e C0 nstrn ctio n. He is a man of powerful build and does his drawing well, at least from what we have seen and heard he lets no grass grow under his feet. It’s hard to tell whether he has a girl on the brain or not, but we hope he has. This is a fatal year for ladies-men Tom; beware. ROBERT A. SHEPPARD . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Structural Drafting. Age 26. Page One hundred eight The Class of 1916 HERBERT C. SMITH . . . Hagerstown, Md. T cl e phony. MICHAEL J. STACK .... Pittsburgh, Pa. M echanical Dr a fling. If starting in Prep, gave him all his “pep,” we certainly wish a few more of his classmates had done the same. He was always there” with the talk that meant, “Get together fellows, to have a meeting tonight.” Tech will certainly lose an organizer when it loses this man. Good luck to him. HENRY VV. STEFFENACER . . Carnegie, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. “lien.” Some name for a grown up man, huh? He usually docs his own scratching, but once a number of his classmates beguiled him under the white lights of the big town. It lasted until morning, entirely too long for Hen,” so he swore off. Stick to the new resolution, old man, and you’ll make good. JOSEPH F. UBER .... Greensburg, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. Very quiet, but we arc sure he’s not quiet when girls arc around. He has been seen waiting outside the M. M. C. S. every evening; also from good sources, we learn that he goes to work very sleepy and tired after the night before. We know the reason now why he was so very anxious to leave school at 9:00 each evening. Also a good photographer, with ladies his specialty. Page One hundred nine PAUL G. VOLK........................Pittsburgh, Pa. Palter nmaking. He is an energetic young fellow as his picture shows. As for making a hit with the gentler sex, he is a “bear.” Of course that is only rumor, but it has come from a very good source. We advise him to watch his step for this is Leap Year. May success he his and may he win fame. WILLIAM A. WAGNER . . . Pittsburgh, Pa. Mechanical Drafting. We have a classmate, his name is Wagner. He is not a ball player, but a machinist by trade. He goes to school, to obtain some knowledge. And attends Drawing class, to trace him through. He loves Trigonometry, for his Chemistry is all exploded. He says “I should worry” about English, but Strength of Materials has him going. I thank you. H. E. WARREN...................... Pittsburgh, Pa. Structural Drafting. Allegheny High School. JOHN WATKINS, JR. . . North Braddock, Pa. XIechanical Drafting. Listen my friends and you shall be told Of “Johnny” Watkins so brave and bold. He went to the Expo and Salt Lake City, I think He told me that wood in that water could not sink. “Nuf Ced,” lie went bathing in the Salt Lake and his head saved his life.

The noise, m C confusion, and dirt, the many inconveniences, changes and annoy-V J ances of the building period, which strained our nerves and patience, will soon be forgotten. Now we are able to spread out into bigger, liner spaces and shall find broader fields and higher inspiration for our work. Our new building is unique in this country and not surpassed by any school in Europe. Everything is done, not only to facilitate the work of the student, but to encourage high ideals and cultivate the imagination by giving him palatial surroundings. Our equipment as well is most generous in every resjiect. As much as possible is given free to the student to lighten the financial strain. Our faculty is as able as it is enthusiastic and with unfailing zeal gives our students the very best. Hut the quality of the building, the equipment and the instruction, as compared with other institutions, is only a matter of degree. In one respect we are unique and therein lies our distinction, our greatest advantage. In our School the live arts are taught under one roof. We can produce architects. painters, actors, sculptors, and musicians. Almost all schools of art teach only one art and sillier from lack of a sympatholic background and an inspiring environment. Other schools are parts of scientific institutions or universities and are surrounded by an atmosphere, if anything, antagonistic to art. At “Tech” each art has the other arts for a background, each stimulates the oilier. As our students work through their courses, they absorb unconsciously some of the spirit, some of the ideals of the other arts. Our students as a result ought to have a broader conception of art and through art, a finer conception of life. That is our great advantage, an advantage that in time ought to make our School supreme. The opportunity is here for 11s all—students, faculty, administration. All is done for us that can be done. What the results will be rests squarely on our shoulders. We must make this great experiment a success and prove to the community to what a great extent the students can be made guardians of the projKMly of an Institution and the greatest liberties may be granted without disorganization. T have the utmost confidence in the student body. I am convinced that unselfishness, loyal devotion and self discipline will be forthcoming to make the Design school the greatest school of its kind in this wonderfully favored land.

The rear has been as fruitful as any previous year of our history. It has not brought any additions to the buildings of the School of Applied Science, but we have been tilling out our skin and have become more robust and sturdy by the process. Some of the external evidences of growth are found in the great increase of the size of our entering class, the gain in strength � f the faculty, the addition of a new course of study and in the increased facilities for graduate work. The most marked indications of internal development appear in the rearrangement of Plebe work, in the remarkably successful record of our students in the engineering competition, in the offering of additional scholarship prizes, in the establishment of a national honorary fraternity and in the increased loyalty and generosity of our Alumni. I can only repeat my message of last year that upon us all, faculty and students alike, rests the responsibility of turning that wonderful spirit, which has already developed here and is so evidently growing, to the accomplishment or the highest ideals or an educational institution. To me this means that (’. 1. T. is to stand for Citizenship, Integrity and Training. Yours sincerely.

It marks the close of the tenth year of the School of Applied Industries. Something like five hundred graduates, including the class of l!)l(j—the largest in the history of the department—is its share to the Carnegie life which is now exerting itself in the outside world of affairs. It must be a source of satisfaction for these men to know that they were included, in a very special sense, in the vision of the Founder which made this school possible. Nothing in education has ever been attempted before that so fully approximates the meeting of the needs of the large majority of men. The evidence is at hand that many of the graduates and former students are already acquitting themselves as true sons of Carnegie. Our best wishes go out to all graduates and former students of all the schools of the Institute. Our earnest !io|h is that wherever this book goes, it will awaken sympathetic interest on the part of those who have been favored by being trained in some part of the Institute, with the special work of the School of Applied Industries. To all students present and past, faculty members and friends, we issue a kindly summons to rejoice with us over the achievements of the past and over the prospects that are ahead. Yours very truly.

K n.uov Henry Hagel Secretary Treasurer Die night prep class convened this season, October !lth, 1!U5, and after a few sessions the hoys were classified and soon hard at work. The spirit of good-fellowship was evident from the first as manifested by the friendly discussions of points brought out in the classroom. IOacli seemed willing to help the other with the result that out of this debating of sehool problems came the inevitable exchanging of views on outside subjects. But this was necessarily confined to small groups as it would be almost impossible to get acquainted with all at once. 'Phis went on until after the class representatives were elected. This committee or senate at once saw the need of bringing the whole class together as a unit and cementing solidly the many friendships already formed. To this end a smoker was held in the Central Building. December 17th. I!il5, at which nearly every prep was present. From a social standpoint this was the most successful event of the school year. The large crowd which attended, together with the delightful entertainment rendered by special artists, created a delightful atmosphere, the whole | crmcafcd by that spirit of brotherhood which is bound to spring up between men who are actuated by a common ambition. Following the Christmas vacation came those terrible exams at the end of the first semester, and with them came a redassi Heat ion. which brought joy to some and disappointment to others. Some friends were separated, others brought together and all formed new friendships. The lessons ltecame so hard, however, that all spare time was devoted to Study and many friendly faces began to disap|iear from the clubroom. The senate again saw the need of bringing the boys together at least once more before the final disbanding for the summer vacation, and hit upon the idea of a banquet. The date was fixed for Lincoln’s birthday which was very appropriate as a reminder to the night students that although they have a very hard time getting an education, there was another whose lot was still harder but whose ambitions carried him to the highest position in the land. The banquet was all that the ear, soul or stomach could desire. We were very much honored by the presence of the Dean of the School of Applied Industries, Prof. Donnelley. In a very fatherly manner he gave us some very valuable advice, and then in a few words gave ns a short history of the Institute. The season closes with a few of the ones that started among the missing, but the majority are still with us and we hope to see them all back next year with the same old pep and a world of ambition.

IIowr.KY President ' ice- President Treasurer Secretary The Night Alumnae have cantinucd the good work which they started last year, that is, the maintaining of a scholarship fund which is used for the tuition of a Night School girl in the Day School. Their first affair of any importance was the Bazaar, which was held on Friday evening. December 10th, 1015. There was a sale of all kinds of fancy work, besides lots of cake and candy. Of course, dancing was one of the main features of the evening, and while there was not as large a crowd as had been hoped for, yet the Bazaar was a success. It is expected that a Luncheon will be the next affair on the programme of the Night Alumnae.

Moss, 12 That Carnegie's Alumni is last developing into one of her most powerful assets is forcibly brought to mind as the activities of the past year are reviewed. At last year’s annual banquet, an invitation was extended to all of the graduates of the School of Applied Science and the School of Applied Design, to be the guests of the Alumni Association of these schools. The banquet, the largest and liveliest ever held, was a tremendous success. The reunion of the PHI class, last June, with its dinner at the Schenley, its presentation of the wonderful Dragon at School, and at the banquet, showed a lasting regard for days spent at Carnegie. The formation of Carnegie Clans in various parts of the Country is just another indication of the growing spirit of our Alma Mater. The Mahoning and Shenango Valley Clan is in a thriving state. Here new members are being added, and the spirit shown is indicative of the unusual interest in alumni affairs by men in this district. Six meetings have been heid by this Clan since its inception in the Spring of PHI: four in Youngstown and two in New Castle. The Pittsburgh Clan sprang into existance with the group of men in this city vitally interested. One of the novel features of this organization is the absence of that ever troublesome question of dues. There are no members in bad standing because of unpaid dues. The Alumni Association desires to acknowledge the co-operation and sup port of Mr. William McConway in issuing the C. I. T. Alumnus, the organ of the Association, to members who have not been supporting the Association financially. Mr. McConwa.v's hearty interest in thus trying to stimulate the interest of more or less indifferent graduates is more than appreciated. The Alumni Junior Scholarship has been continued as in the past. As the end of another school year draws near, bringing with it more graduates from Carnegie, we are looking forward to a substantial membership increase. Here's to the ('lass of 1( . May they be Carnegie Tech men after they leave her halls, even as they have been within them. Page One hundred ninety Alumni Applirii JJniUifitrtPH Alumni Aaanrtalion OFFICERS M. L. Haas (i. K.

The work has been done with a single object in view and that being to renew the Tech Spirit in some of the Graduates who have permitted it to drag. The Annual Banquet last June proved most successful both in regard to attendance and pleasure. A new Constitution was adopted, ollicers for the year were elected and an outline of the year's work made. This year the Quarterly meetings have been well attended and much progress has been made due to the co-operation of the members and faculty. The election of officers takes place at the March Meeting instead of tin Annual Banquet as heretofore. The newly elected ollicers take their place at the Annual Banquet in June. The social affairs of the year include a dance and a smoker. Both affairs proved rousing successes and the members have been looking forward to the final affair of the year which will be a dance.

Two years ago the ollicers of this Association realized that the bulletin was not representative of the entire student body, and thereupon invited the M. .M. S.

The C. I. T. Alumnus is the result, and while it is only in the second year of its career and certainly has a long |ieriod of development before it. there are already indications that it is doing a great deal in the most important direction of bringing all the Alumni Associations together for a furtherance or the ideals of Carnegie Tech and the welfare of the undergraduate body.

MoOiu.ocii So much luis been written on the competitive side of athletics especially as they are related to the “Varsity,” that a few words concerning athletics for the average student, who is usually content to get his exercise by sitting in the grandstand, may not be amiss at this time. Athletics, or any name that may be applied to the various forms of exercise, present many opportunities and advantages to the student, and are more likely to hold his interest if he understands a few of the fundamental principles that should govern his attitude toward them; namely, health, increased muscular efficiency, and good sportsmanship. in its relation to health, exercise has three general physiological effects: they are: increased circulation, increased respiration, and increased elimination. Tf we stop to consider the fact that poor health, and sickness, outside of contagious and infectious diseases are the results of sluggish circulation and poor elimination, the value of systematic exercise needs no further argument from a standpoint of health. Even in contagious and infectious diseases, the effects of exercise in increasing the resistance of the individual, has a definite relation to immunity from such diseases. The second principle involved, that of increased muscular efficiency, puts the emphasis upon educating oneself muscularly to do the necessary physical tasks easily, and with the least ex|K nditure of energy. The difference in this resjKM-l between the trained, and the untrained is not so much a question of strength as of muscular co-ordination. The normal individual naturally in the course of evolution of his daily life, develops sufficient strength to do the physical things that are required of him. If lie is following manual pursuits, it is not long before he develops tin necessary strength required in the |H r-formauce of such pursuits. On the other hand, if he is in the milder walks of life, he has no need for the musculature of the manual worker. Such an individual's exercise should take the form of recreation, or re-creation, and health. The third consideration, that of good sportsmanship, has a definite relation to the moral life of the student. If he learns to plav fair, while measuring skill with his opponent, the contest should put into his heart the joy of the combat, at the same time restraining him from using his strength like a brute, or shrinking before a superior force; bringing honor in victory or defeat. instead of fear from the weak and contempt from the strong. It should develop a spirit which obeys the rules, though the decision may seem unjust at the time, rather than pierce the air with protestations. A spirit of sportsmen. not sporting men. This is the ideal of sportsmanship that we should strive for, in our athletic contests, both intercollegiate and interclass. Page Tuvo hundred eight Athletics tatont Artiuiltra With the advent of the new (iynmasiuin and Stadium which are to be finished within tiie next year, Carnegie Tech may well feel that she is on the upward road to the development of the physique of the Student Body and prowess in the athletic line. Recognition of this fact has been shown recently by the invitation of two of the largest Cniversities in the Country, to have Carnegie Tech as an opponent on the football field. As one of the games occurs early in the season, it will necessitate a very early start in the conditioning of our candidates. The present plans are to make use of our Camp along the Allegheny River, about the middle of September, where with the influence of fresh air and eats and under the masterly inlluence of our Coach, we can bring back to Pittsburgh, a troop of lighting Tecliites that may well compare with any of our worthy opponents. All in all. the coining year has so many great prospects that with the co-operation of the Student Body with that good old Tech Spirit, things will be accomplished that will be far beyond the highest expectations. The consolidation of the recognized activities at Tech under the Student Activities Board and operated as different departments of a business organization, is one of the best steps of advancement that has been taken in a long time. Although at first there was quite an objection due to the thought that the Activity would be curbed in its operations by the Student Activities Board, after a few short months of existence, the good result obtained has eradicated those first opinions and now has made many staunch followers. Not only has the good name of the Institution been upheld and protected, but the friendship and good will of the Merchants with whom we have occasion to do business has been increased to a considerable extent. 'Phis has all been done by eliminating a score or purchasing agents and concentrating the purchases in one office. Another result that is deserving of considerable mention is that of the Board retaining a record of the operations of the different Activities which is to be handed down from year to year to the incoming officers. It therefore provides a means of acquainting the new officers with their duties instead or having them proceed in the dark as was the case in previous years. The present feeling that exists among the different activities is conclusive proof that the above step has been taken in the right direction. iqib r Page Two hundred nine FOOTBALL, 1915 W. W.

Thus the annals of football registered the record of “Dear old Tech. ’ for tin season of 1015. The season's play was pleasing to all notwithstanding that our only defeat was at the hands of “Pitt,” who decisively defeated us 2S to nothing. However, we find comfort in the fact that “Pitt had its greatest team, undefeated during the entire season, and a team regarded by leading authorities as the strongest in the country. The season was surprisingly successful inasmuch as the out Al7cadPCoachffcN ,ook s,t tI,e of School was very dubious. It was not until the faculty ban had been removed from certain of the old men and until several new men of unusual ability were discovered that anything like a successful season became possible. In analyzing the result of the contests, we can find several gratifying features: First of all. the defeat of our rival, Allegheny College, by the score of 41 to 7. This victory by such a decisive score came as a surprise inasmuch as Allegheny had not been defeated in two and one-half years and ap|� eared on Tech field with a veteran team. The play of the Tech team in this game had almost reached its perfection for the eleven players moved with machine-like precision when advancing the ball and every man was keen and alert on the defensive. The most glaring weakness of the team throughout the season was apparent in this game —that of the defensive play against forward passing. The weakness was most apparent in this game because of the exceptional ability and cleverness of the A lie Kesxer, Sunny” glicny team in executing the forward pass, particularly 152 lbs., 5 fl. 7 in. . , , . . . . .

Science, t6 Ptuje T co hundred fourteen Athletics Another pleasing feature of the season's play was the over whelming victory over Grove City College which we defeated by a score of CO to 0. This was an unusual victory in view of the fad that this was the only game lost by the Grove City team during the season. Our victories over Case and Western Reserve were the most important of the season. These teams were the two best in the Ohio conference (Western Reserve being the champion by virtue of its victory over Case on Thanksgiving Day) and our decisive victories over them did much to give Carnegie Tech real prestige in the football world. The splendid results accomplished were due: first, to the individual ability of t h e players and, second, to the harmonious manner in which they trained and fought throughout the entire season. Individually each and every one of the men particularly dis-ditVerent times during the Captain Lauer playing his last year seemed inspired by the responsibility of the captaincy and easily played the best game of his career and earned for himself the right to be classed as one of the best players Carnegie Tech has ever produced. Fletcher and Kelly playing the guard positions showed marked improvement over their work of the previous year. Roth of these men conscientiously tried throughout the entire season to accomplish the instructions of Dr. Marks and did exceptional work in interfering in certain of the plays in which they figured and were Fletcher, “Fletch” 177 lbs., 5 ft. 11 in.

Science, ’15 Athletics responsible for many of the long' runs made by back-field men. The tackle positions which were the source of the greatest worry at the outset of the season, were filled by McFeaters and Kutz (two newcomers in Tech Football. McFealers with his great height and weight was a tower of strength in the line and his untiring efforts in hurrying and blocking our opponents’ kicks were |� er-haps equal to those of any man playing last year. The playing of Kutz at the other tackle was remarkable especially in view of the fad that this player was playing his first year of varsity football. 11 is natural ability and strength gives sure promise that he will develop into one of the best line men in Western Pennsylvania next year. Gibson and Levy struggled for several weeks for the regular berth at right en which was finally won b Gibson because of his con sistent development. Gil son’s work from the lx ginning of the season wa very promising and it wa merely a lack of cxjKjri-ence that kept him off of the team fn the early games. Gibson, Gibby” 174 lbs., 5 ft. 11 in.

Finlay, playing his first year, gives much promise and should develop into one of the bright stars in Tech football history. ••Sunny’’ Kesner again directed the team at quarterback and had reached the point of knowing just when to call the projier play. 11 is shrewdness in sizing up our opponent’s weakness in defence and taking advantage of ini- McSorlf.v, “Mac” 155 lbs., 5 ft. 9 in.

This may be attributed to various reasons, the vital one of which was “Lack of experience under fire” by most members of the team. At the beginning of the season prospects apj►eared unusually bright as there seemed to he plenty of good material, unlimited enthusiasm, and a determination to win. That this spirit prevailed is proven by the lirst three games which we won from teams who were unusually strong. In these games the boys played splendidly and showed what they could do if they kept cool and concentrated their efforts on team play. This is my main idea to instill into any team as a foundation for success. Before these games, the fundamentals on which 1 endeavored to build up a strong team were good shooting, quick passing, close but clean defense and general co-operation in general team work. That the boys assimilated a major portion of these instructions I do not doubt, as they showed it in practice, hut when they got into a game, where they should have been in practice, it was a different story. The loss of our captain and surest foul shot injured our chances also, as we not only missed his floor work, field and foul goals, but most of all. his confidence, inspiring presence, and cool and encouraging |jcrsonnlity. during the course of the game. Had he been able to play in certain of the games, the team would never have gone to pieces as it did. and we might have had a victory instead of a defeat. Another misfortune which befell the squad was the loss of several very promising candidates on account of scholastic deficiencies, who could have tilled several gaps in the line up. had they been eligible; this was especially unfortunate in view of Page Tuo hundred thirty-two f Captain 11 inks Coach Xmiioi.s Athletics I Ik fact that they were tilted for the places where they could have I icon used. In conclusion, let me say that we all know that sometimes everything goes wrong: this was the case this year. Even in shooting it seemed as if liie hall was undecided and hung on the rim of the basket not daring to drop in, while our opponents would shut their eyes and score from any place or angle. This was not their usual speed as other games proved, only it seemed that when they played ns they had a night on and we, one oil'. The season is now over and while it has not been as successful as we might have desired. vet everv cloud has its silver lining. So let’s profit hv past mistakes and all the valuable experience gained, pull together, and perhaps, next year, we will have a team that will defeat all the high class opponents to whom we were forced to bow this year and acknowledge as victors. Ma.nagkk Ammhuman A firttim of thr Sraaon Basketball at Tecb this year has opened up a new phase in Inter collegiate Athletics for us. We have met and played teams representing some of the largest and best schools in the country. That we are, or an not, in their class, subsequent years will prove. The basketball schedule was by far the hardest that any team in any form of athletics representing Carnegie Tech has ever gone through. The prestige which it brought us is certainly worth any defeat we have tasted. It has assured us that we are really recognized as a school where only the highest and best things in college athletics are tolerated. It gave us a chance to become known in a territory in which we have been little heard of and where the advertising medium is bigger and better than elsewhere. Of the older men we had Hines, Tumpane, Henning, Curtis, Slater, and Green, to start the season. New material was shown in Finlay, Lewis, Wean, Abrams. Converse. Williams, Ebaugli, Gretzler. Of our older men. little additional can be said outside of what the student body already knows. Every one of the boys, new men or old. scrubs or varsity, fought hard for his school, and the dash and light they put in the game are to be commended. Captain Hines especially deserves commendation for his all around playing. and for the clean, manly way in which he led the team. Quiet, almost to taciturnity, lie played a stellar game in conjunction with the other men on the floor, that proved him to be the stuff that Carnegie Tech is happy and proud to have for their leader. Captain-elect Tumpane, after his absence caused by illness Inst vear. came back to the game with all his old vigor and pep. Of the new men. Finlav and Lewis starred. But to mention the boys separately is to sav the same for all. They stuck like men, and when a fellow went on ■SS. Page Two hundred thirty-three Athletics tin floor we were sure of his best and hardest efforts. Tech can well feel proud of them, one and all. As i« the success of the team in the numlier of games won, we perhaps are on the wrong side of the ledger. The team displayed fine form at the early part of the season and gave every prosjiect of an exceptionally good schedule; hut suddenly owing perhaps to the absence of Captain Hines first on account of an injury, later on account of illness, the team slumiied. There is no doubt that his absence was certainly felt. Coach “Hemic Nichols was with us for the first time this year. His constant efforts for and with the team are proof or his whole heartedness and interest in his work. His system was new to the men, but developed them along lines that make us wish for a continuance of the same in following years. Prosjiects for the new year are really very good because of the promising qualities of the new men. We will lose Captain Hines, Tuinpane, and Henning by graduation. The other men are practically new material as yet and it is on them that we must depend for success in basketball next year. JhtliT-OIlass laakrthall Through the interest and efforts of Messrs. McCulloch and Hyman, of the Athletic Department, inter-class basketball proved very popular, and the interest and spirit displayed by the classes insures us of an even more successful season next year. Not only does inter-class basketball tend to promote good inter-class spirit and fellowship, but it affords an excellent means of developing and bringing forth players of ability for the -‘Varsity squad. The league was most successful in the Design School where every game was played and flu schedule completed in big league fashion. The Plebes finished in first place with the Sophs running a close second. In the Science School the league was composed of Plebes. Here Section A finished in first place with Section C in second. Section M-l carried away honors in Industries, while the Printers captured second place. ST A N DIN’D ('l.ASS Dcxifjn School Won Lost I CT. Plelies .til Sophomores .. .

The Raines were exceedingly well played in the majority of cases, and almost every game brought forth a star player. And lucky was the club that could boast of a star, for after giving their best material to the Varsity, a club had but little hope of having a star on their club team. Facli game was supported by the contesting clubs, who turned out almost to a man. and the contest of cheering between the onlooking opponents was even as keen as the games. The series required about eight weeks time, during which such men as Brockman. Kesner. and Marshall of Beta Theta; Stein and Brider. of Wood-lawn: Segmiller of Sigma Kho, and Fletcher of Zeta Lambda, proved themselves to be worthy of the esteem in which their respective organizations held them. Space does not permit the listing of all the good men who played on these teams, for it would be necessary to list every man who played. Fverv one helped. Enthusiasm was kept at the top notch, and it was not until the series was completed that one could form a correct idea of the results. They are given below in order that thev may be recorded in the archives of the school and of the different fraternities.

Although the team has not lived up to the reputation of the championship team of 10051. the number of good men in school gives promise for tin development of a winning combination in the near future. At the time that the “Thistle” goes to press,the first half of the Pitsburgh Amateur Hockey League has been completed. The showing so far has been somewhat discouraging, but with the second half to play, better things are to lie expected. The association is under obligation to Mr. Alan Bright. MO, for the services he has rendered in coaching the team. The unseasonable hour of practice makes it impossib'e for a business man to la present at every practice. The main idea to live for this season is to defeat Pitt in the second half of the league. P. S. The ••main idea” was realized.

Trainer Page Tvjo hundred thirty-nine Athletics din' oJrark Quaint nf HU 5 Last year Tech started the season under the handicap of having lost two of her best point winners, Haselton and King. However, as has always been the case, Coach Dull developed a strong team from the material that was at hand. This is shown by the results of the meets in which our men participated. There were some new records set. but this was not the special feature of the season's work. Our men. for the most part, had to divide their attention between too large a number of events to specialize in any one of these. The work of Kieser and llemmann. our highest point winners, should receive special mention. Kieser ran the mile, the half, and the quarter, while llemmann ran the 1UU, 220, and the 440. Adams also did some creditable work in tin weight events. The indoor season which consists of several minor meets and one important one found Tech holding up her old standards. The most important event of the indoor season was the .Middle Atlantic Championship Meet held under the auspices of the Pittsburgh Athletic Association. Mere llemmann won the 00 yard open dash and placed second in the 00 yard championship. Our relay team took second place in the one mile college relay race with State in the lead. In the other indoor meets Tech men were always among the point winners. The first outdoor meet of the season was the interschool meet which was won by the Industries School, by an overwhelming score. In this meet, llemmann was credited with a 10-second record in the 100 yard dash. Adams also came into prominence by breaking the record for the shot put. although he had done some remarkable work before. Last year was also marked with another triumph for our team in that it was the first time in a number of years that we had been represented at the Penn I tel ay Carnival. Our team did its best against a fast field, but was able to get only third place. The team was made up of Heyl, Kieser, Dunseith, and I lent-maun. Our class was won by Worcester Tech in 2 minutes. 22% seconds. On May 1st, in the Press Meet at the Schenley Oval, our relay team showed their metal by winning the mile open relay race from P. A. A. and Indiana Normal who had each named themselves as winners. This was the principal event of the day and was hotly contested to the finish. Our team in order was made up of llemmann. I lev 1. McCracken and Kieser. Page Two hundred forly z Athletics The first college dual meet of (lie season was held on (he flolowing Saturday against Allegheny College. This meet was a hard one for the Plaid team as (he score of 03 to 03 would indicate. Although we won 8 of the 14 first places, we were unable (o annex enough points to overcome our opponents. Ai this time Falir of Allegheny won 15 points. Adams 13, and Bieser and llcmmann each 10. The following week our team met Pitt on Forbes Field in the hardest fought contest of (he season. Tech men fought tooth and nail (o get 42% to Pitfs 83% points. Here again we won 5 of the 8 track events although the field events all went to Pitt. In this meet Dockstader, one of Tech's two milers, ran his first sensational race of the season against Livermore of Pitt. Bieser won first place in the mile and (he 880. Blumenthal won both of the hurdle races, and llcmmann won the 220 and second place in the 100. Tech showed up some of her stars in this contest, but was lacking in men who could pick second and third places. This seemed to be the one weak spot of the team which probably cost us the Allegheny Meet the week before. Coach Dull Our next meet was with Westminster College at New Wilmington, Pa. This was scarcely worthy or being mentioned as a track meet, as the score would indicate. Tech won 08 out of a possible 131 points. The track was heavy, permitting no fast times to be made. Adams, the Tech strong man, heaved the shot to the new mark of 37 foot, 2 4 inches. Bremmer's performance was also worthy of mention. This man, although still in his first season at Tech, was able to span 21 feet fi inches in the broad jump. The men who at the end of the season were awarded their varsity C, and of whom Carnegie Tech can well be proud, were Hemmann, I ley 1. Dunseith, Dockstader, Walker, Blumenthal, Bremmer. McCracken, Black. Adams, and Bieser. Of these only two. Blumenthal and Dunseith, will be missing this spring. Both of these men were good workers and consistent | oint winners. Of the remaining squad a few stars should be dcvelojKjd to uphold the record of our former Track Teams. Bieser, one of the distance men. was chosen as Captain for the ensuing vear. in view of his being the highest individual point winner for (he season.

Walker, Moore, and Captain Rieser, were back holding down their regular positions. The new men on the team were Lawson, Dockstadcr and DeYoung, who should all develop into stars for tlie next year's season. Andrews should also make the 1916 team, although he was held out this year on account of injuries. In the tryouts which were fast and snappy, the order of finish was as follows: Rieser. Moore. Dockstadcr, Walker, Law-son, Andrews, DeYoung, and Howe. The first race of the season against outside competition was the one held on November 15th. finishing on Forbes Field, when Tech was the first college team to finish. I . A. A. was the winner with : 1 points, while Tech got 48, Pitt (J4, and Westminster, 76. The Plaid Team finished Schwhiun in the order given: Rieser (4); Dockstadcr (6), Walker (10), Moore (12), and DeYoung 116). This was the second time in two years that the Plaid Team has suffered defeat at the hands of the P. A. A. runners, hut there is one conso- Athletics (UrnaH-dnuntnj uf 14115 lation in the fact that it has been a long time since Pitt has outclassed our men in this sport. The last race of the season was a dual meet with Wooster, which was held on the Schenley Park Course. In this meet our men proved themselves superior to one of the best teams in the state of Ohio. The order of finish was: Rieser (T), Walker (T), Leavitt (W), Dockstader (T), Lawson (T), Swan (W), Richards (W), Ret .lar (W), Campbell (W), Moore (T), Howe (T), DeYoung (T). In this race our men ran against Campbell, a former Tech star, who was humbled with the rest of his team-mates. Shortly after this meet Walker was elected Captain for the ensuing season in view of his good showing and consistent efforts. Although Rieser and Moore will be missing on next year’s squad, the outlook for a successful season is promising. A W A RDFD ’R SSC ) 1T XT R Y I NS I (i XIA (). ().

The team, as a whole seemed to be in a bad slump. At times, however, they played brilliant ball, although the season's record might not indicate it. hi the beginning the team seemed like a sure winner, for early in the spring it was announced that A1 Wagner's services as coach had been obtained. Needless to say the news was joyously heralded about and received with no little pleasure. All ready A1 Wagner and his brother, “I Ion us,” had won popularity with the fellows as basketball coaches and nothing is to be said concerning their ability in the national sport. An excellent nucleus for the team remained from the 11)14 nine and this served to buoy up the hopes of all. Captain Humphries, Lain, Hines. Kveider, Dellinger, and Krum composed the list of veterans. In addition the first day's practice call brought forth an excellent looking band of new men from whom the vacant positions were to be filled. Both Wagners were present that first day and put the squad through a few stunts to limber them up a little. But the very next day both departed for the Pirate training camp. Mr. McCullough took charge of the bunch and worked with them until the middle of April, when Al Wagner returned and resumed his duties as Coach. Early in the season, Doherty showed his supremacy at shortstop while McClure filled the middle field position thus leaving right field the only undecided corner. Shortly after the beginning of the season. “Sunny” Kesncr was placed in that position and proved to Ik one of the most valuable men on the team. The pitching department seemed to be one of the weak spots on the team. Unfortunately Ryan, the star of 11)14, left school soon after tlie beginning of the season. “Pick” Hines was the only exjiencnced man that then remained and he was nursing a sore arm sustained in 101.1. He put his best into his work, however, and had the team batted behind him a little better, the scores of some of the games would have lieen a little different. Wean and Darlington were two new pitchers who, although inexperienced, rendered most valuable services when called upon. Much is to be looked for from these men in the future. Already the team’s general batting has Immmi mentioned. Perhaps the individual batting was not so bad but the team seemed to be unable to Page Two hundred fifty Athletics hind n hit in the crucial moments. The chief brilliant sjiot was the hitting: of catcher Lain. He could he depended on for a couple of hits and averaged .380 for the season. As a result he was elected to till the captaincy of this year’s team. The holding of the team was brilliant at times, Captain Humphries, Doherty, and Lain being always to be relied on. This department of the game was almost always good. The season opened with a defeat by Juniata, followed by a walloping by Pitt. The team did not come into its own until they made a three day trip and defeated Hcidclburg and Ohio Northern, losing to Otter-bein. In spite of defeat many other games were featured by bright playing. The two Penn State games, the W. J. game and the final Pitt game were as interesting games as anyone could have wished to have seen, es| ecially the last mentioned contest. The managership of the team justly needs mentioning. During the season, “Hapf Pringle seemed to be about the busiest man on earth, his efforts for the success of the team at all times untiring. That position will l� e filled this year by Tyler.

The majority of the guests, coming from all over the country, stopped at the Hotel Schenley, and from there they visited the Library, Museum, Art Galleries, and, of course, the Institute of Technology in action. The President of Carnegie Foundation. Dr. Pritchett, received the guests and introduced them to the members of the faculty of the schools. On Wednesday, the twenty-fourth, our visitors attended their largest reception when they met the student body in the Music Hall. To the guests, faculty, and students, Dr. Pritchett then told of the educational work of the man who made Carnegie Tech possible. The Carnegie Choral Club rendered social music for the occasion, while everybody joined in the singing of the Alma Mater. “Dink” Merrill was given hearty assistance in the exercise of his function. Thus the people of dear old Tech observed its tenth birthday and the eightieth of its founder, Andrew Carnegie. ®hr (filiristmafl IFraltual nf ffimtbmt Qlmim On December sixteenth all the organizations of M.

In the front hall between the staircases was situated the “Mermaid Tavern.’ offering for sale, hot pies, puddings, coffee, and ice cream. Next door was the Home Arts and Crafts booth, exhibiting hand-painted stationery, candle shades, tally cards, jewelry, chiffon scarfs, et cetera. At the turn in the hall were sold Guild calendars and the new Shilling.

The programme f � r the evening was carried out by the Dramatic Club. Choral Club and Athletic Association. A play—“The Traveling Man”—was given by three of the girls, the student body sang Christmas Carols in procession, and the evening ended with folk dancing in which the visitors joined.

The Schenley ballroom was taxed to its utmost with a throng of beautiful girls and genial fellows. The gorgeous costumes of the fair sex harmonized well with the tasteful decorations and soft lights. The reception hall presented a charming appearance with its cosy booths and myriads of flowers. The grand march took place at 21:30 and after the patronesses had greeted everyone, the dancing licgan. Then followed in succession fifteen clances to the music furnished by seven pieces of Xirella’s orchestra. Supper was served in the banquet hall while Hawaiian music was played by a special quartet. Hundreds of small balloons floated over the tables amidst showers of confetti. After a delightful menu, dancing was resumed until four, and it was with lingering regrets that everyone heard the last strains of the home waltz die away.

This phenomenal growth is largely the result of the conscientious work of the executive committees of the past and the able direction of Signor Scal .o. It has lifted the club to a standard of merit, making possible the playing in such cities as Johnstown, Erie, oil City, Cleveland, Jamestown, and Youngstown. Shortly after the opening of the 11)1;) fall term, the invited try-outs for both clubs were held under supervision of Director Scalzo. Over one hundred desired admission and of these, seventy were chosen for further try-outs. Regular work was then begun, after a pleasant smoker, tendered last year's men and all those who had tried out. The season opened at Marshalsea, December 1st. After a successful performances at 1 . C. Y.. the 1'niversity Club, and Crafton. efforts were concentrated on the bet ween-semester trip. This trip was without doubt the most praiseworthy work tin clubs have ever done. I’nbiased. favorable criticism was theirs in Oil City, l a., Jamestown, X. Y„ Erie. l a.. and Ashtabula, Ohio. The really | erfect concert at Jamestown, and the pleasant dance following, shall never be forgotten by those who were present. The Home Concert this year was of unusually high musical excellence. This annual function with tin ball at the Schenley, following, is already one of Pittsburgh's well known social affairs. Later in the season, Youngstown, Cleveland, and neighboring towns constituted a trip. Here again the clubs rcs| ondcd to the magic of Signor Scalzo's direction. Taken from every point of view, the season has been undoubtedly the most successful in the history of the clubs, and the management is hopefully looking forward to the playing in the larger cities for the next season.

Page Two hundred seventy-three Strprtnr iralzn mg IGNOK GBEGOBIO SCALZO was born in Taormina, Italv, in 1884. At the age or nine. I� e coininenced the study of mandolin, under 1 Professor (1. Verdura. of Catania. When 10, ho toured in concert through Argentine, Iruguay and Brazil as mandolin soloist. Return-Kuro| e in 15)01, he resumed the study of music at the Leipzig Konservatorium, under such eminent instructors as Mans Becker, Arthur Nikisch, and Bichard Hoffman. devoting much time to harmony, counterpoint, composition and instrumentation. In 1008, he organized in Ixdpzig. the ('lub 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 1000, Signor Scalzo came to New York, and was soon after engaged as violinist with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Emil Pauer. During the summer of that year he returned to Europe for a ten weeks' tour as mandolin and violin soloist. Thereafter, he again joined the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, with which he remained until it disbanded in 1010, after which lie played with the Pittsburgh Festival Orchestra. In 1010, he became director of the Carnegie Mandolin Club, and through his able direction, has succeeded in placing it among the best of college organizations, in 1014, he also assumed charge of the Glee Club with equal success. The Carnegie Musical Clubs are indeed fortunate in possessing as a director a man so well qualified for the position.

The band is at every football game and parade, and is present at all the athletic activities of the school. When the football team went to Cleveland to play Case, the band went along, too, partly as a reward for its faithful service, and also because of the great influence the baud has on the spirits of the rooters. And never was its influence more strongly felt, than at the Case game. Case, too, had a band, hut our band outnumbered and outplayed them by far. The Cleveland papers went so far as to say that never before was there seen in Cleveland such spirit as was shown on the field that day. No one who witnessed that game can ever forget it. And not only is the band useful for enlivening the spirit at football and basketball games, but it can furnish concert music of a kind seldom heard from any college organization, military or otherwise. This was aptly proved twice this year when tin band held concerts and dances, once in March and once in May. The great success of the band this year from a musical standpoint was due to the great ability of Director Sullivan. Mr. Sullivan surely has the knack of bringing out the best that is in every individual player, and the individual talent of our band is very great indeed. Manager Hanks has also worked hard for the success of the band, and it is largely due to his efforts that the band, this year, is by far the best that Tech has ever had.

Olsen IQ S Page Two hundred eighty-one Musical Organizations Sin' (Chnral (EUtlt The purpose of the Choral Club is twofold. The first object is to promote choral work of mixed voices among the members of the four schools. The second object of die club is social. Regular rehearsals are held once a week throughout the school year while social affairs of various kinds are held from time to time at the pleasure of the members. Two years ago the Choral Club was organized. The able leadership of Robert J. MacI owell soon attracted to the chorus the best voices in the schools. Carnegie Day marked the club’s first public appear ance. The debut of the young chorus was a great success. From this time on, the Choral Club was in much demand at the various school gatherings during the year. In April a very pleasing production of Co wen’s “Rose Maiden,” in the little Design School Theatre, won for the Choral Club the admiration «� f all Tech. Late in the spring of 11114, the first season came to a close with an all day frolic in Panther Hollow. Games and contests crowded one another until a lunch of such proportions was served that further participation in any active sport was out of the question. For lack of space and other reasons, the history of the Choral Club during the season of 111 14-15 will not be given here. Possessing neither a director nor funds, the organization had what might be called an “off year.” The second active season of the Choral Club opened this year at the Carnegie Day exercises. Under the leadership of their new director, Mr. Hertram S. Webber, the club sang the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s • Messiah.” The number was enthusiastically encored by the large audience and the musical criticisms were very complimentary. This success was all that was needed to put the organization on a firm basis. It was at once decided to take up the production of one of the popular light operas. This would put not only afford a splendid field for the work of 'agt Two hundred eighty-two H. S. Wkiuiek Musical Organizations a mixed chorus, but it would supply an important missing link in Tech’s chain of student activities. While the Department of Drama delights us the year round with their artistic productions, the “animal play'’ of most colleges has been conspicuously absent at Tech. There are many students not in the Drama course who are eager to take some part in school theatricals. To these the (’lloral Club from now on will supply such an opportunity. (iilbert and Sullivan’s famous operetta. “The Mikado,” was finally chosen after considering several of the popular light operas. Shortly after the announcement of this decision, the musical success of the jierformance was assured by the pledged support of most of the best soloists in the four schools. The chorus of some fifty voices went to work with enthusiasm. Cnder the spirited direction of Mr. Webber, the progress of the club was rapid. After the Christmas holidays, the chorus sang the opera from beginning to end every Tuesday afternoon. In February, the catchy airs of the “Mikado” could be heard all over the campus, in draughting rooms and laboratories. As the “Thistle goes to press, the prospects for a highly successful performance of the “Mikado” could hardly be more promising. With the singing directed by Mr. Webber, the staging supervised by Drama School exjierts, and with the Design School Orchestra in flu pit. the Choral Club’s production of the “Mikado” will surely be one worthy of the name of I’ech.

PHt;. marked the most important event of the year in the realm of secret organizations at Tech. Tan Beta Pi is a National Honorary Engineering Fraternity; it is to the engineering school what Phi Beta Kappa is to the classical school, what Sigma Xi is to the graduate research courses. The original honorary fraternity is Phi Beta Kappa, founded at William and .Mary’s College in 1775; an organization having high scholarship in a classical course as the requirement for admission. It was the lack of such a society for engineering students that led to the foundation of Tail Beta Pi at Udiigh ITiiversity in June of 1885. The purpose of the Association is “to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by a high grade of scholarship as undergraduates, or by their attainments as alumni; and to foster a spirit of liberal culture in the Engineering Schools of America.” We have at Tech letters for those men who qualify as varsity athletes, we have insignia for those who reach certain requirements in Student Activities such as the Musical Clubs; so that it seemed eminently pnqier that those men who rank highest in scholarship, the most important factor in any school, ought to receive some mark of recognition. The insignias of Tan Beta Pi. a watch key shaped like the bent of a trestle, furnishes this recognition; but it means more than this. It means also the forming of a close association with a vast body of engineers who stand at the top of their profession. As a national organization. Tan Beta Pi has thirty active chapters over a territory from Maine to California, and a memliership of about ( ,( 00 engineering graduates. % Page Two hundred eighty-six ®ltp aau $fta |Ji Fraternity Founded at Lt� liij h University in 18S5 ROLL OF CHAPTERS ALPHA OF PENNSYLVANIA . . 1885 Lehigh University, South Bethlehem, Penn.

Social Committee Yes, the name probably is a new one to most of the readers of the “Thistle,” but there is indeed a “Renots Club” and il is composed of forty-five very live members. The Club was organized May .‘Jrd, 1915. The members at least one year, and the majority of them have attended this Class for two years. The main object of the organization of this Club is to “Spread Sunshine Among Those Less Fortunate than Ourselves, and Try to Lighten the Burden of Others.” Many of the girls have given evenings to entertaining the children at the “Home for the Friendless,” with games and dancing; and aside from the pleasure given the children, our own members have derived a great deal of enjoyment out of these evenings. At the present time, the Club is practicing for a vaudeville show, which tbev expect to give shortly for the benefit of some charitable organizationj and under Miss Stoners able management, a great success is anticipated.

The quests for tin evening were our own Dean Donnelley, and Dr. Miner, of the Department of Psychology, both of whose inspiring messages are ever to he remembered by those who were present. A JO-mile cross-country ‘‘hike” to the home of Brother 'arev was taken the following Sunday. Thereafter, one function suggested another, and who does not remember the jovstraw ride at Tra fiord City, the instructive motion pictures shown in Room 104, and the skating parties at the 10. K. Roller Rink and at the Winter Darden? The social and dinner at Brother Clark’s closed to date the season's social functions. The activity of the club is not entirely social. At regular meetings, topics educational are debated and frequently lectures are arranged with prominent educators who are in close touch with industrial education problems.

Embracing faculty smd students alike, sind hy no means forgetting the Margaret Morrison girls, its membership is truly representative of the Carnegie Tech family. This organization lias for its object the intelligent discussion of present •‘live economic smd social questions. Prominent s] eakers, authorities on these questions, have lectured sit the meetings. 'Pile members have resul psipers at some of the meetings and discussed many of the leading questions of the day. The C. I. T. Economic Society was conceived and founded by our present president, Harry llorelick. To him is due most of the credit for the growth of the organization. The fact that teachers in each of the four schools are members of the society indicates its status. Because the C. I. T. Economic Society is a truly democratic organization, its meetings have been thrown open to the entire student body. The fact that the attendance numbered from one hundred to four hundred at each of the various meetings attests the interest taken in the affairs of the society.

Wonder what she looks like!” With much excitement the Sophomores rush into the hall and all remain quiet while a timid voice asks: “Is this the Fifth Avenue Dormitory?’ Immediately the chaperon steps lip with the plan of the Dormitory in her hand and asks, “Who are you?” The name is given and the room assigned. The “Poor Plebe” did not realize that there were letters to be mailed, shoes to Ik polished, beds to be made, all for her superiors—the Sophomores. On Octoiler first, the social life for the Dormitory started when the Sophomores arranged a dance to which the Plebcs were invited and men furnished, in return for which the Plebes were given the special permission of paying their own assessment. The Plebes gave to the upper classmen on October twenty-third, a Hallowe’en party at which all were dressed as ghosts. The evening was spent in telling fortunes, making impromptu speeches, dancing, and eating. Later in the month three of the Sophomore girls entertained the Plebes at a tea: when the Plebes bad left the tea. the Sophomores went, dressed to represent different members of the faculty, to eat what the Plebes had left. The biggest feature of tlie year took place on the evening of December fifteenth when the girls were given a banquet after which twenty children from the Soho Settlement were given a Christmas party. A tree had been decorated in their honor and each child was given presents of toys, fruit, and candy. On February fourth, the second house dance was given at which all the girls were present. All had such an enjoyable evening that plans were immediately laid for a dance on Saint Patrick's Day. Page Three hundred eighty-three Page Three hundred eighty-four 'm isix ®br (Eanunji?

These are (he two pretty stone and brick structures on Wood-lawn Avenue at the entrance to the campus. They have filled a long felt want in student life. Those men who have struggled through one or more years of boarding-house existence, can readily appreciate the advantages offered by the dorms. It makes a man feel good to walk into a fine-looking home. Besides this, there is the big social advantage, which hitherto was totally lacking at our institution; the advantage of living with, and coming in contact with a large number of college men; forming many lasting friendships which would have been impossible under the old system. The relaxation afforded by tin “good times” at the dorms is having a decided effect on the men. as can be noticed by their excellent scholarship standing. Some of our neighbors forget that these two buildings contain about one hundred and eighty live, red-blooded men. and hence expect a “graveyard” effect from this end of the campus. With countless musicians and vocalists of doubtful ability, drastic action is often needed to subdue the overtones. After eight o’clock all becomes quiet, and the nightly grind logins. Now and then a reprobate, whose math prof has neglected to give him the proper burden, endeavors to let the rest of the dorm know of his extreme brightness. The nuisance is strictly squelched, and perhaps, after a trial, the misguided youth adorns the dormitory stocks. in or. °n At- school official is a strange sight in the buildings.

ONE Up from Tech field, at close of play. Bringing from Tech rooters fresh dismay, The dusty air with a shudder bore, Like a herald in haste, the campus o’er The terrible yelling and cheering and roar, Telling a game was on once more And Tech’s goal fifty-five yards away. TWO And wilder still those howlings and yells Thundered along the hills and the dells, And louder still o'er the campus roll’d The noise of that gridiron uncontroll’d, Making the blood of the onlooker cold, As he thought of the score to be made in that fray. And Tech’s goal fifty-five yards away. THREE But there arc some linemen on Coach Steffen’s team, Some husky, stout linesmen they, 1 ween, Therefore as Tech's signals were fast bellowed out, And the opponents began to scramble about, There opened a gap in the rival’s strong line, A gap caused by Tech’s magic “shift combine,” The pig-skin the center had put into play With the goal-post from it sixty yards away. FOUR And then, as it spun on its way thru the air, Its progress was checked, when it lit plump and square In the arms of Tech’s quarter, that wiry young lad, Who had helped much in winning past games for the Plaid, This man. Sunny Kesner, on getting the ball, Headed straight for that vacuum made in the “wall,” Of the rivals, as ’round him their players did sprawl, And he wiggled and squirmed, as he kept on his way With the goal-post now forty-five yards away. FIVE As moment by moment he quickened his stride, With two stout interference men close to his side, The gloom and dense fog which has clouded the air Broadcast o’er the bleachers, where Tech rooters were, Now showed signs of lifting, and, low, in its place There appeared a faint ray of some hope in the race For the Skibos, and smiles soon appeared on each face, Which smiles then developed into, Ray! Ray! Ray!” As the ball at that moment was ten yards away. SIX At last the “advance men” had tumbled aside 'Flic last hindrance small, and with one final stride, The runner with ball o’er the last chalk mark passed. And the Plaid now had won by hard playing and fast; Oh, who then could restrain those Tech chccrers true, Who had backed up their team, when the outcome seemed blue. They just let out their lungs, till the hills did resound With the echoes of cheers that were heard miles around, For their team had now in the last quarter of play, With the top of a six to three score saved the day, When their ball reached the goal from so far away.

Aside from appearing in every photograph of Tech, the building serves the purpose of containing the famous M. II. tower. By climbing to the thirteenth floor, one may go out upon the tower balcony, from which he may see. on a clear day, all the beauties of the railroad cut below. Wonderful panorama! “Near the door is the Dean's office. The student careers of all our engineers begin there. Many end in the same place. “•Just on our left is the Industries Building. It is not so named because if is a distinctively industrious place around Carnegie, Oh no! there are others. You are all familiar with the passage, ‘Low we hear sweet Labor's hum.’? Well, just listen. We are now passing the Forge Shop in action. What one sees across the campus there is the upj er half of the Science Building. The rest, at least from this side, is below ground level, but one may obtain a full view of the structure by going into the cut on the other side and looking up. As an architectural treat, however, a visit to the Carnegie Museum would be more profitable, especially while there is blasting going on just across from the Science Building. i v — n— “muc.vui iiwo vi may be said, through his systematic work for the stogie trust, to create his own atmosphere. “That gent in the soup dish coverlet is I’rof.

Mis rhetoric is that which only a regular college man can appreciate. “But there—right before us—we have the Beanery. Without our Beanery Carnegie Tech would not be Carnegie Tech. It would probably degenerate to the level of Pitt, or some other awful place.

But this vertical geography all helps in see-ing the good old varsity eleven slather into its victims on that field during the football season. “Here we are at last at the Dorms. Were this the season for ojien windows we should have already heard all about it. These edifices, ladies and gentlemen, backed by the Beanery art the strongholds of Tech, the mountain fastnesses. so jo speak, of our college life. Why! Tt is known that part of Bill sign on the next hill was kidnapped one dark night and was traced as far as this yard! Brethren, that sign has not appeared since. “That line of streamers resembling a halyard of signal flags from tin one second story to the other is a collection of pajamas, blankets and table covers borrowed privately by two of the young bloods of the place from their absent neighbors. The promoters were last seen passing through Oakland. By now they should be in Allegheny, where they will probably remain until the property which is now receiving this air treatment has been salvaged by its owners. “In these Dorms the highest standards of Art are exacted. Once, a member of the Band living in the Dorm insisted upon practicing with undue enthusiasm. A delegation took action, but he continued his efforts to improve the Band in the yard. Well, he got close to one of the buildings. A window on the third floor was raised. A loyal Techite took down a fire bucket and aimed carefully—but let us pass on.” J- U. Aknoi.d, ’l'v Qie Page Four hundred one -- S «■� I'jj ’uni jaaj j6uj Am I so disguised that you cannot know me? 'Tis said I come Imt once to every man; Jtis true hut yet 'tis false; for I come again. If the second time I come, ye know me not. Tis because my form and face are changed ; for I visit no man twice in the same garb. I do not stop, ye cannot follow me nor seek me afterward; for I am swifter than the thought of men when once I am past. Through cities, lields and seas remote I hasten, through homes, schools and marts; for there is no place on earth hut is blest by my presence. To men and women, to youths and maids alike I come, to children, parents, grandparents; for there is none hut can profit by my friendship. To those who know me not or doubt or hesitate, I become invisible; for their eyes discern not the things most plain. These are they who are doomed to poverty and woe, to failure and disappointment; for I am the Master of all Future Happiness. Rut to others I come again and again, and I love to tarry; for they await me with open arms and a clear vision, and I am their Friend. These are they who attain the Heights, who conquer every foe save Death, and in whose garden grows the Blue Flower; for to him who hath shall l e given. My name is OPPORTUNITY. K. Iv. Mkkkkk, 17. Page Four hundred three ffA Grinds Jkjnnranre (?) “I don’t pity you men; but I do pity your wives and mothers.” —John H. Lectc, December 5, 1914. ACT I. (Apartmentettc in Wilkinsburg, 6:30 P.M. Paul and Julia, six months married, finishing supper.) Paul: Pcste! I should like to stay at home with you tonight, Bunny. But I’m thinking only of myself; Dean I.ecte was right when he said we fellows are not to be pitied; our wives and mothers waiting lonesomely at home bear the burden of this night-school work. Julia: It's just too bad that you have to be at that horrid school so much. But please don’t worry about me. I can run over to Lou’s for a while and then I can read until you come home. Paul: Poor little Bunn; sit around and talk to Lou and then read until I come home! And you used to have such good lively times. Well, soon as I get that engineering SITUATION, we’ll LIVE, eh what? Julia: Here are your hat and coat and pipe, dear; it’s time you were going. (Kisses him.) Paul: Good night, Bunny. ACT II Scene 1. Lou’s house. Julia’s old chum. About 8 o'clock. Lou: I’m so glad you’ve come over, Julia. Harry is going to bring a little kiddo around with him tonight—and he has scads of money but he’s a “Nobody Home.” Julia: Let’s show him a good time, honey. (Door-bell rings.) Lou: Hello Harry, how arc you? (Old-fashioned hand-shake.) Harry: Just fine, Lou. Meet my friend, Mr. Rogers, and get your hat on and wcl’ll go to a show, and the Fort Pitt, and all the rest of it, no sitting around tonight—Oh hello Julia, you’re coming too. Rogers: O—h, this will be a jolly little party, won’t it? I think it will don't you? Julia, Harry and Lou: IT WILL. Scene 2. Chcm. Lab. About 10.00 P. M. Paul: Almost quitting time, Hen. Who’s gona buy tonight? Hen: Don't you know? Don’t you remember we fixed it up with George and Art to be at the Schenlev at 10:30. Club sandwich, bottle of water, and then we can dance. Paul: That’s right. Wish I’d put on a clean collar. Let’s quit now. ACT III. (The apartmentette about 11:45. Julia bursts in hurriedly, looks around for Paul, takes off wraps, seizes book and sits down.) Julia: Wonder if lie has been home? (Paul enters and assumes a wearied look.) Julia: (Stifles a yawn and closes book.) Oh, Paul, I’m so glad you’ve come,—at last. You poor boy, you look exhausted aren’t you late? Paul: (Sinks into a chair and allows himself to be fussed over.) Yes, darn it—Student Curriculum meeting after school. It’s a shame school keeps me away so much. Julia: Never mind. Wait till you get that SITUATION. Paul: Then watch us, honey—Love me as much as ever, Bunny? Julia: None but you, dear. (Lights out.) Ptuje Four hundred five Grinds SIGMA TAU When founded—lie fore Tech (apologies to Foster). Local—i Same spot for ten years—quite some stable). Number of men—.lust a full house. Colors—Hot tie Green and Nicot ine. Motto—Meat for supper. Conservatism is what we stand for, boys; conservatism in food consumption. Never eat too much. They pick out the chaps who wear the overalls and convert them. The house is one of those old “rambling mansions, which the rats have honeycombed. This is tin first obstacle the blushing M. M. C. S. dorm damsels have to pass on their way up Wood I awn Alley. In order to get in with the faculty, the boys are after I). C. SIGMA KUO When founded—God knows when. Local—(Forever). Number of men—Active—?. Dead—f 0G. Colors—Old Green and Crepe. Motto—In God we trust. The butcher knows them as Sig” Munroe. All pledges should take out accident insurance before initiation. One who knows them well has suggested that they present a play entitled: “The Mystery of the Scholarship Cup; or. How Did it llap]ien.” Teas at tin dorm are welcome; no supper at the house on tea nights. Like most upstarts from the “Hill District,” they walk around with their noses high in the air. Just ns though they did amount to something. BETA THETA EPSILON When founded—Stone Age. Local—(Sorry to say). Number of men—None. Number of live-eighths—27. Colors—White, Green, and Lavender. Motto—McCaughey, forever. The Beta's have their house, or better, their roost, up on Aylesboro. Away from the common herd, so they say. The}’ have a leaning toward the cute little Plehes—the erstwhile mamma's boys. It is surprising to see how soon they are develojied into toe dancers, etc. In the drafting room they are known among others as the inseparable bunch of rough-necks. It has been hinted about that they have made Sigma Nu—at least Sigma Nu men are known to be able to get free board there at any time. XT SIGMA EPSILON (Teddy Bears When founded—At Abhy's. l!M)t . Local—(In spite of yearly rumors). Number of men—Limited to 57 (emulating Heinz). Colors—Green. Motto—Erin Go Bragh. Since moving into Woodlnwn Alley, from down in Oakland, the Teddies have shown considerable “'pep?” In numbers there is strength, thus the assimilation of the Delta Phi's. It must Ik quite embarassing not to know your own fraternity brother. The ambition of the Ni Sigs is to have every football man pledged. They did well this year, having about two-thirds of the squad. The idea only had its inception this year, so that next year they may well e |� ect to realize their ambition. Page Four hundred six Grinds ZETA LAMBDA EPSILON (Pig Leaves) When founded—When the Old (ireen Liver went dry. Local—(Now and forevermore). Number of men—Nobody knows. Colors—Black (mourning), Brown (taste). Motto—For ! . K. E. we pine. They occupy I lie large cage at the corner of Forbes and Wightman, up in the Squirrel llill district. Il is a question as to whether the injection of lowbrows into the highbrow district will lower the high level. Heterogenous conglomeration is not descriptive enough. Every year sees several canoe parties, but they are now on the decrease, as no one can be had to go. The bunch has one easily adjustable dress suit. THETA XI When founded—When Eve was a girl. National—by Heck. Number of Chapters—They don’t seem to know. Number of men—Active, 2 510; Inactive, 17,000,000. Colors—White for purity; Mud Blue. Motto—Sec Oakland First. Away out on the smoky side of Herron Hill stands the domicile of the Pie Chapter. They want to get as far as possible from the limit of the school law. It is said that (lencral Braddock died in this house. “Join the only National in Tech” is what they say, but that argument does not seem to have much effect. At the Prom the Pies forsake their own booth for that of T. N. E. Another regulation is that a boiled shirt must be worn four times before being washed. WOODLAWN CLUB When founded—1,000 IL C. Local—What? Number of men—Five or six. Colors—Light and Dark. Motto—If lie’s from Milwaukee, get him. The M. M. C. S. girls always blush deeply as they pass the Club on Wood- lawn. Wouldn’t you if sixty eyes were glued on you? At the Club the window curtains are always being washed; you know gaslight dirties curtains so quickly. Since the passing of “Skinney Sheldon to tin halls of matrimony, the house has a gloomy hue and all is very quiet. The Club is noted for the many distinguished personages which it has housed.)?) OPIIELEUM (Ophelias) When founded—1912, in the Foundry. Local—Of course. Number of men—17 brick layers. 2 plumbers, 1 machinist. Colors—Colorless. Motto—Not this night, some other night. A word of explanation is needed here, this introduces Industries Fraternal Order; it’s just outside tin border of trade-unionism. Fraternal order of what? Where did they get that name? A close scan of all glossaries fails to reveal its origin. 11 is understood now to be of phonet ic origin. They are said to board at the same house somewhere in East End. When you see (he “Fellers” on the car in the morning, you know you have a cut for the first period. The pin is wart shaped, and brings 22 cents at any pawn shop—1C. beers, with accompanying free lunch. Page Four hundred seven Q 0 Page Four hundred eight Page Four hundred nine Page Four hundred ten Page Pour hundred eleven ArluuuuU'iUjinu'nt This volume records another year of activities and pastimes at Carnegie. That these events might be thus chronicled, many have sacrificed time and pleasure and have used their talents in their respective ways to help make this book a lasting source of pleasure and a true friend in recalling by-gone days by word and picture. It is to those who, without bonds of duty but with loyal Carnegie spirit, without having served officially on the year-book board but have willingly aided it, that greatest praise should be given. So. it is with sincere appreciation and hearty thanks that the 1916 Thistle Hoard expresses its gratefulness to all who have rendered any service, be it ever so small, to make their aspirations possible. Pdi e Four hundred twelve Students, Faculty, Administration Officers We call your attention to the advertisements in lliis, the •‘1010 Thistle.” At the same time we l cg to express our appreciation to our business friends and to assure them that Carnegie Tech will reciprocate in full measure. The Advertising Bureau has taken care in selecting firms who are particularly friendly toward the schools and who will treat you in a pleasant and agreeable manner when dealing with them. You should not forget that you owe them your patronage. Get in the way of mentioning the fact that you are a Carnegie Tech man or girl,—it helps a great deal. You will also note the advertisements of some large manufacturing concerns with whom, as students you may never have any connections, but later in life, in business, you may have the opportunity of showing your appreciation to these who helped make this “1016 Thistle” possible.
