I h is a pleasure to extern! my greetings to the Editors of the 1935 Edition of THE THISTLE. Through this volume you are perpetuating the events of this college year and in the years to come von will enjoy through memory the friends of today. Sir Thomas Overbury quaintly expressed this thought at the end of the sixteenth century in the following lines: Hooks are a part of man's prerogative In formal ink they thought and voices hold: That we to them our solitude may give And make time present travel that of old. Dean Green In saying good-bye to the seniors this year, may I venture a prediction? It so happened that your college days were coincident tvith one of the greatest depressions in our national life. The Class of Nineteen Thirty-five went through those days with good spirit and stout heart. Having (lone that, I feel you are better prepared than most classes to carry tin in the same manner when your stress and strain periods of the future come, as they inevitably will. Dean Tarbf.i.i. Congratulations arc extended to the staff of THE THISTLE for this excellent book. It constitutes a valuable record of the events of a most important year. My association with the Class of 1035 has been greatly enjoyed, and to its members I offer my best wishes for social, political, and economic success.

H e raise an issue with Mr. Shaw. and. in refuting his statement, offer the noble record of a group of teachers, the faculty of the Carnegie Institute of Technology. who are doers. H e. who have derived both inspiration and knowledge from their contributions to the world of arts and sciences, take great pleasure in recording their work of the past year. Led on by the whisperings of natural truth, through pain and self-denial, they often pursued their work.' —Tydall. To the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society went ten Carnegie faculty members to present papers which betray the active spirit of contribution that motivates this department. Research is of vital importance to any scientific school, for therein lies the institution's contact with the world of progress. In the Departments of Chemistry and Physics the work has been so voluminous that to discuss it at any great length would require more space than our entire 'Thistle encompasses. We can but offer her a summary of a few of the outstanding endowments that have been made this year. Dr. J. G. Warner, one of the ten who presented papers at the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society, in collaboration with H. Howard I.ee published a study of 'The System Biphenyl — Bibenzyl—Naphthalene. Nearly Ideal Binary anil Ternary Systems, which appeared in a recent issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society. Dr. Warner is particularly interested in electrochemistry and thermodynamics. ’The National Research Council recently awarded him and Dr. Lieherknight a grant of money with which to construct a crystal-diffraction apparatus to study infra-red rays. Dr. Robert Melil represented Carnegie at a recent meeting of the American Society of Testing Materials for the purpose of arranging a national symposium on the application of X-rays. Dr. Krivolmk. whose work in the field of metal alloys has gained for him due praise, presented oil a number of occasions papers and addresses dealing with corrosion-resisting steels. Dr. Lowry and his staff at the coal research laboratory are leading a vigorous attack on coal that promises to produce much valuable knowledge. Already twenty-three papers and pamphlets that contain new information have been published by the members of the staff. To Dr. Raker was dedicated the first volume of Dr. Ernest Berl’s Chemische Ingenieur-Teclinik. recently published in Berlin. Dr. Rcrl has taken an active part in the work of American scientific societies during the short while that he has been in this country. His ad- 16 dresses before the American Institute of Chemical Engineers on The Lead Chamber Process and before the Syracuse branch of the American Chemical Society on Analytical Chemistry in General. his work on cellulose ami the laboratory creation of coal, his papers and publications, and the attention that they receive indicate the position of respect that he occupies in the scientific world. The work of Dr. BerFs countrymen, I)rs. Stern and Kstermann, is no less commendable. Their investigations on molecular heams and magnetic moments is of a highly-specialized and original nature. Dr. Joseph Svirbely, co-discoverer of a new source and method of extraction of Vitamin C. continues his investigations into the nature of this important substance. He is attempting to determine exactly where it is synthesized in the human body, in what quantities, and more concerning its physiological effects. The most interesting addition to the Chemical Engineering division of the Department of Chemistry has been the Chemical Engineering Laboratory, which, though opened in March 1934, did not come into full use until this school year. The laboratory contains, to mention a few of the more important pieces of apparatus, a double-effect evaporator, an absorption tower, experimental heat-transfer apparatus, filter presses, and a humidity-controlled experimental dryer. Due to the facilities of the new laboratory, the time given to the subject of Chemical Engineering in the curriculum has been increased. To Dr. J. II. James and Dr. Webster Jones go a goodly portion of the laurels, for it was largely through their efforts that the old mine in Engineering Hall was replaced by this modern laboratory. 'The sound of the hammer and anvil is ever in his ears.' —APOCRYPHA. Professor W. C. 'Frinks and bis colleagues in the Department of Mechanical Engineering have engaged in the past year in a most productive program. Professor T. G. Estep accounts for a number of praiseworthy contributions. In collaboration with Dr. Harry Seitz of the Chemistry Department, he acted as a senior investigator in a mining and metallurgical investigation of The Effect of Mixing C.otds on the Ash Fusion Temperature of the Mixture, resulting in the publication of a bulletin in May 1934. Further studies have been made during the year 1934-35 on the Ashes in Coal with interesting results not yet published. In collaboration with Professor D. C. Saylor of the Department of Mechanical Engineering an investigation is being made of the heat transfer through tubes of different cross-sectional shapes. Professor Estep in January 1935 presented a paper on “Some Recent Studies on the Ashes in Coal at the annual meeting of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers held at RulTalo. He also read a paper before the Eastern States Blast Furnace and Coke Oven Superintendents Association on the Ashes in Coke, and spoke to the local chapter of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers on the subject of Fan Theory and Selection. Professor A. II. Rlaisdell supervised the experimental work of Mr. C. Lyman on Boundary 17 Layer Flow over Flat and Concave Surfaces. In recognition of his abilities lie was appointed a member of the Committee of Awards for the William E. Bering National Scholarship Contest. Professor Trinks published a third edition of Vol. I. Industrial Furnaces, containing the latest results of experiments conducted here, and presented a paper on perfection in the theory of the rolling mill. “You must look into people as well as at them.”—Loan Chesterfield. The need for careful selection and training of industrial plants was emphasized in a hook published last fall by Professor Glen U. Clee-ton and Mr. C. W. Mason on Executive Ability: Its Discovery anil Development. The hook contains a report of experiments which were conducted in the preparation of tests to differentiate persons of sales, research and executive types. These tests are now being introduced as a part of the employment procedure in several industrial organizations. Professor Cleeton further contributed to the world of science as speaker on An Analysis of II omen's Vocational Interests before the American College Personnel Association, which met in Atlantic City in the early spring. He is also author of two pamphlets, The Clinical Treatment of Maladjusted College Students, and (in collaboration with the Pittsburgh Personnel Association and the State Employment Service) Occupational Adjustment in Allegheny County. His colleague Dr. Schoen, brings honor to the Psychology Department by being represented in the latest Who’s Who in America. “Never meddle with actors—Remember that, as they are a merry folk who give pleasure; people favor and protect them. —Cervantes. Four hundred thousand people attended the performances at the World’s Fair Globe Theater last summer, and applauded heartily the work of Mr. Iden R. Payne and his company. The national press, too, joined in high praises of Mr. Payne, a member of the Carnegie Faculty since 1915, for his admirable work as director of the Shakespearian Theater in the English village. As a consequence of his work, the trustees of the Memorial Theater at Stratford-on-Avon have selected him to direct this enterprise. Visitors to Shakespeare’s birthplace will, therefore, now see the stamp of Mr. Payne’s direction on the world famous acting company at the poet’s shrine. During the current season, three new plays were produced Glass Houses and In Shining Armour by Rosemary Casey, both staged by Mr. Chester M. Wallace, and Rich Man, Poor Man, a biographical play about Jonathon Sw ift by Warren P. Munsell. Jr. The director, Mr. E. H. Hickman, winning from the author and his theater friends, who came on from New York, the exclamation. “It’s simply a swell production!” We further salute Dr. Leroy L. .Merrill for his direction of the excellent production of Everyman by the freshman group, Miss Cecil Kitcat for her direction of the highly effective choral work witnessed in Euripides’ Alcestis, and Mr. Elmer Kenyon whose patience and efficiency have made possible the co-ordination of the work of the Drama Department. 18 “A life among pictures makes not a painter— else the policeman in the National Gallery might assert himself. —-Whistler. With one exception, all the prizes of the Twenty-Fifth Annual Exhibition of the Associated Artists of Pittsburgh were won by past or present students of the College of Fine Arts or by members of the faculty. Of the two hundred and twenty-six exhibitors, one hundred ami fifty-six are present or former students of the Department of Painting and Design or faculty members. These statistics are a glowing tribute to the efficiency of the Fine Arts staff who are directly or indirectly responsible for this excellent showing. In particular we wish to cite the work of Professor Samuel Rosenberg who was awarded the Carnegie Institute Prize of $250 for the best three canvases, and that of Professor Russel T. Hyde who won the Art Society Prize of SI00 for his Northeaster. The Craft Section of the Exhibition, an innovation this year, was organized by Professor Frederic Clavier, who planned the arrangement of the exhibits. “And hears his blushing honors thick upon him. -Sill K ES PEAKE. In addition to what has been mentioned the following men received a number of honorary positions and awards during the past year. Mr. Ai.an Bright—elected President of the American Association of College Registrars. Dr. Fettke—appointed to the production committee of the American Petroleum Institute for the Eastern District; appointed as a member of the Topical Committee on Mining Geology of the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers. labor case for the Pittsburgh Regional Labor Board.

Professor Work—elected president of the Metric Association. Finds us farther than to-day. —Longfellow. The great Temple of Art and Science towers Babel-like towards the high heavens and perfection. Each brick, each granule that is added enhances the beauty and magnificence of this super-structure. Some, like our noble friend and benefactor, Andrew Carnegie, have built great sections of this Temple; some must he content to add but a grain of dust. We, the students of Carnegie point with pride to the achievements of our faculty and say, ‘‘Here, O World, resides a group of Master-Builders.” 19 Dr. B. Griffiss—served as arbitrator for a CLASSES SIvMOIt ★ THE CLASS OF 1935 ★ Starting as perturbed freshmen in 1931, the present seniors in the College of engineering found it difficult even to dream of that day in the dim future when they would he proud seniors. The first problem which confronted the present seniors was initiation during Freshman Week and several months thereafter. The class also participated in the All-Carnegie Dance. During the sophomore year the class of 1935 concentrated on work and play. Studies became increasingly difficult hut there was still time to take care of the incoming freshmen. The junior year brought honors to the class of 1935. Numerous students were called to the honoraries and became well-known figures in the campus activities. The senior year finds the class of 1935 satisfied with work well done. It has come through a period of economic depression with courage, and will persevere with this same fine spirit after graduation to carve a name for itself in the sphere of engineering. The senior class of 1935 of the College of Fine Arts has come through a difficult period of upheaval, obstacles, and depression with courage and spirit. It is difficult to define the activities of the class of ’35, because the Art School works as a unit in which departments and classes are minor suh-divisions. In the many outstanding projects undertaken by the Arts College, notably the “Arts Ball” and the “Ballet” the senior class has proved themselves to he able and efficient. In almost every activity on the campus, scholastic, athletic, and social, the senior art class can point out with pride to worthy and distinguished representatives. The courage and spirit that the senior class of ‘35 of the College of Fine Arts has shown during these past years are but a fraction of the courage and determination it will need from this point on, for it is going out to offer art and beauty to a world which is struggling for grim necessities.

As we, the members «f the Class of 1935 of Margaret Morrison Carnegie College, look back on our four years here, wc are rather proud of a number of successful projects which we helped to promote. The first of these was the Freshman All-Carnegie Dance. It proved to he one of the most successful dances that year. In honor of the senior class, the class of 1932, we gave a tea dance, which was held off campus. During our freshman year we initiated a custom of having box luncheons at least once a month. These socials were held in order to bring the class together and form a closer unity, and to serve also as a means of becoming better acquainted with one's fellow classmates. V’c carried this custom over into our sopho- more year. The most important event of that year was the Soph Hop, which was also a success, both socially and financially. As juniors, wc were scheduled to have a Combined Men’s-Women's Junior Prom. However, after much persuasion and promising, on our part, to make it a financial success, we succeeded in gaining permission from Student Council to hold a Women's Junior Prom. We kept our promise. During that year one sorority was recognized, after it had been in existence for some time. Our senior year saw two more sororities recognized. The three joined the Inter-Sorority Council of the College of Fine Arts and took part in the Inter-Sororitv Formal. Helen Sicklnbkrckk.Secrelury; Martha Dkmms, President; Virginia W haley.

Iii tlic year 1932 a number of young men were graduated from the various high schools and prep schools throughout the country. In the fall of this same year about 323 of this group gathered merrily and innocently at the Carnegie Gym to register as freshmen in the College of Engineering. This ordeal was, to the most of us, our first glimpse of college life. To say the least, it was quite bewildering. Immediately following registration came Fresh -man Week”. This week was quite a happy one. There were no upperclassmen about to bother us; there were dances in the College of Fine Arts; and the thrill of meeting new people was always at hand. However, this happy period soon ended: and hazing by our upperclass brethren was soon started. This period, like the previous, was soon completed and rushing season was next in line. At last we have reached the peak of our career—or so it seemed to us, for we were rushed here and there and quite well entertained. This illusion was soon put aside. just as was the Freshman Week Myth”, and we were plunged into the jowels of pledge week. This, like all other periods, passed rapidly, and the end of the year loomed large with its hugahoo of final exams. Thus ended our freshmen year, with the more fortunate of us becoming sophomores and the less fortunate dropping out. The sophomore and junior years were much less eventful than the freshman year, and they passed rapidly with only a few bright spots such as the Spring Carnival and the Notre Dame holiday. These brighten the otherwise drab existence of quizzes and act as ‘’breathers” between twenty-page reports. Such has been the life of the Carnegie Junior, lea ing him only the thought of graduation ami what the world holds in store for him. Who knows? We don't even dare to guess. There is only this—that it means the parting of our college friends and acquaintances, and the end of one of the happiest periods of our lives. 64 Fink Arts .hok ;� ; Kittrkdck.

Although the members of the entire class are in different departments, they have cooperated with fine spirit on the major enterprizes of the College of Fine Arts. Also the members of the individual departments have distinguished themselves in their own lines of work. Fine work has been done by those in the junior class in music, painting, sculpture, dramatic art, and architecture. A member of the junior class has done much work in radio broadcasting, and has been instrumental in hav ing many fine concerts broad- casted by members of the College of Fine Arts, from the Exhibition Room. These broadcasts have added lustre to the name of Carnegie, as well as promoting the interests of the individuals taking part in them. File junior class has worked with zeal on the different projects undertaken by the College of Fine Arts. The junior class had representatives working for the Arts Rail, the Ballet, and the Bacchanalian production. 'The class is looking forward to its senior year to display the same attitude of cooperation and further its many achievements. ★ ★ ★ 65 Betty McCkecok, President; Betty Leiik.

Color Day in November 1932 marked the official recognition of the class of 1936 as a part of Margaret Morrison Carnegie College. t that time the class of 1933 passed on to our class their colors of purple and white. Later in the year the class sponsored its first social function, the highly successful All-Carnegie Dance in Thistle Hall. The next year we sponsored the Soph Hop, another success both financially and socially. During the Sophomore year the class met once each month for lunch, to promote class cooperation between its members. It was also during our sophomore year that a member of the class of 1936 won the women's national rifle championship. During our junior year, especially the first semester. we spent our time with the freshmen girls, making them familiar with the customs and rules of Carnegie. From the beginning of the term 1934-35 the class eagerly looked forward to the long awaited Women’s Junior Prom. Even though the dance was a closed affair, it was one of the biggest successes of the social year. Another feather to the junior cap was the winning women’s national rifle team of 1935, made up entirely of juniors with the exception of one. Of course, more could he said of the achievements of the Class, hut everyone knows it is one of the finest junior classes that has ever been at Margaret Morrison. ★ ★ ★ 66 soi no ioiti: F.nginf.krinc I.kmis I). limx� :u. Treasurer: James I. H� w , Vice-President: Simon Kelser, Secretary: anil John WkinberC, President. Our beginnings were not marked by any event out of tlie ordinary. After being exposed to several orientation talks, a dance, and a banquet during Freshman Week, we made our very modest collective bow to Carnegie in the fall of 1933. Tilings progressed smoothly until the Numerals Kush, which of course we lost to the sophomores. Shortly after Thanksgiving, we were rushed by the fraternities, and by the time we again settled down to the even tenor of our ways, we found the class completely scattered. From then until June we advanced steadily until awakened from our spring fever to take the finals. Over the summer we were scattered far and wide. Last fall we came back to school again to take up again our interrupted studies. Quite a few of the class were unable to return, but there were several new faces in their places. This year, of course, there were Sophomores in some of the school offices and in many of the sports and publications, so that we are more interested in activities. Then too. we were at the other end of the game when fraternity rushing season came along. We are in a rather inhetween position as sophomores—not freshmen. for whom many thing are done, nor juniors or seniors who do these things. ★ ★ ★ 68 E. Dis'i n Kuhns, Treasurer: Katiierik Weigel.

This year, the College of Fine rts class of nineteen thirty-seven appears in the Thistle with a little more dignity and with less humility, for they have lived up to the tradition of sophistication to the greatest of their ability. Immediately following the election last spring of ilfred Slocum for president; Catherine Wiegel. vice-president: Robert dams, secretary; and Denman Kuhns, treasurer, they boldly began plans for the institution of traditions in the college. The sophomores’ main idea was for a closer organization of departments through the class. They were partly responsible for the complete unity of the present freshman class who so enthusiastically adhered to the “new deal” in the school. ctivities for traditional plans were effected throughout the summer, and with the opening of the fall semester they held the first class picnic and barn dance which served as a forerunner for the other class events. The affair was held on October 5 at South Park and proved very successful, which some of the architects can well verify. Wilfred Slocum aided with freshman regulations: to which the freshmen can vouch. The sophomore class cooperated all through the year with the Arts Senate and particularly in regards to the event of events, the Arts Ball. The class of nineteen thirty-seven wishes to take this opportunity to thank those members of the faculty who so kindly assisted them in making, what they believe to have been, a successful year. ★ ★ ★ 69 Margaret Morrison Alberta McClure, Treasurer: Margaret Kitzckrai.d, Vice-President; Vi.ph Jane Muck, President; Dorothy Booth, Secretary; Jane Tiernan, Senate Representative. The members of the sophomore class of Margaret Morrison have, since their organization last fall, held numerous social activities on the campus. The purpose of organizing the class and holding social affairs was to create a more friendly feeling among the members and to provide a means of recreation. The first gathering in the fall was a Hallowe’en party held in Margaret Morrison Recreation Hall. Games and a treasure hunt were part of the entertainment, and cider and doughnuts were served as refreshments. Two-thirds of the members of the class were present at the affair, and everyone had an enjoyable time. A few months after this party the sophomores entertained their big sisters at a tea. By means of this gathering the members of the class sought to show their appreciation for the help which their big sisters had given them during their freshman year. This was the first time in the history of the school for a class to entertain their big sisters. ★ ★ ★ 70 lltCMIMW Kay.MON Zkicler. President; m.tkk Rf.id, Vice-President: Wayni. Hixlin.

A program of dancing followed. The next afternoon we were the guests of the . M. C. A. at a corn roast and hall game. The A also treated us to a dinner during Freshman Week. When regulations went into effect, we soon learned that our heart was in our work.” Black ties, socks, and dinks appeared everywhere. In the midst of all this hazing, class elections were held. Shortly afterwards, the newly elected officers planned and successfully put over the Freshman All-Carnegie Dance. The night before the first football game we entangled with the sophomores in a Numerals Rush in the bowl. Although we fought valiantly. the Sophomores were too strong for us. and we were defeated. Thus far our class has a splendid record and a fine class spirit. We hope that our future will he as bright as our past. ★ ★ ★ 72 Fine Arts 'if Hoiikrt Zkidman. President; Francis Tikcki..

The outstanding event of that week was a reception where we were introduced to the members of our class. Phis was followed by a dance. Other activities of this important week were a corn roast, initiation, and various general tests. Regulation insured our wearing of the hated black socks, black ties, dinks for the hoys, and arm bands for the girls. It was heaven help the unhappy freshman boy who appeared without the sacred dink. Next on the program of activities, was getting acquainted with our work, which after all was the reason we came to Carnegie. Then came election of oflicers who were to guide the destiny of the freshman class. We are proud of the record of our class in scholarship and activities and hope to keep up the good work. ★ ★ ★ 73 Maih.arkt Morrison Louis : I’ve :. President: Klizabetii Lowkey.

The freshman rifle team has gained recognition for being the first women’s rifle team on the Carnegie campus. The Margaret Morrison Freshman have also gained distinction for themselves by their response to other activities. On the day that we were received into the omen’s Carnegie Clan, we received our class colors, black and gold. The class dinner at which our sponsor, Mrs. Parker, was present, helped further the acquaintances of the girls. We were all introduced to the uppcrclass women through the Big and Little Sister movement. ★ ★ ★ 74 Oltl.AMZATIOXS AND ACTIVITIES STUDENT GOVERNMENT Hkcker Dana Kloos Hays THE STUDENT COUNCIL MEMBERS: Donald L.

Student Council is a central organization of the Senates and classes of the College of Engineering, Margaret Morrison, and the College of Fine Arts. Its function as the governing body of the school gives it control over affairs of all non-athletic organizations and matters concerning the entire student body. It obtained its present powers in 1923 by the merging of the Student Council and the Board of Student Activities. Campus organizations function financially with the aid of Student Council, which makes yearly appropriations to them and approves of their budgets for the year. The Council also assists the organizations in handling their social events or benefits. Among other duties of the Council are the arrangements for assemblies and chapels, all the school elections, and the freshman regulations. During the past year the Council has worked especially hard in trying to secure the Brown House as an Activities Building for the students. The Activities Building Committee has drawn up and presented to the administration and trustees excellent plans for the project and aims to house all organizations and activities in this central building. There have been made, in the past year, some changes in the representation of Student Council, corresponding to changes in departments and colleges. According to the present set-up, there are on Council twenty voting members with the President voting in case of a tie, and ten non-voting members. Members are elected to Council for the term of one year except in the case of the assistant treasurers who act as senior representatives the next year. The voting membership consists of the Presidents and Vice Presidents of the three Senates, the Presi- OFFICERS: William F. Brrkrr, President: Tliuma W. Dana, Jr., Vice-President i Veronica A. kloos, Secretary: Clarence Y. I lays Treasurer: Kollin V. Davis, Executive Secretary. dents of the senior and junior classes in the three colleges, the Secretary and Treasurer of Council, five representatives from the College of Engineering and one from the College of Fine Arts. The non-voting members are three assistant treasurers, three assistant secretaries, and the Presidents of the sophomore classes in the three colleges. The officers are elected from the senior class each year by the outgoing Student Council. The work of Student Council is carried on through various committees which are appointed by the President for the entire year. The work of the committees was very successful this year under the following chairmen: Social Chairman, William Clements; Spring Carnival, Thomas Dana: Budget, Koger Burke; Elections, W illiam Carlson: Freshman Regulations, George Goodridge: Publications, Regis Joyce; Activities Keys, Donald Ash-haugh; Special, Thurman Croft. A change in the by-laws of the Council constitution was made this year, whereby the President, Vice President, and Budget Chairman are awarded the concessions of checking, freshman regulations, and bulletin boards. ★ ★ ★ 70 REPRESENTATIVES: J.

The Men's Dormitory Council is composed of nine men who are representatives of the various men’s dormitories. The officers ami councillors form an advisory group which gives the final decision upon all matters of discipline, and acts as a link between the men and the administration. In this way they try to maintain self-government in the group. The council also aims to promote the scholastic welfare of the dormitory men by maintaining a high standard of conduct and a sense of honor and individual responsibility. They attempt in every way possible to develop recreational facilities and social activities for the residents. The council is directly responsible to the Dean of Men. The main social events which the council supervises are Men’s Dormitory Dances. In the fall of every year the men hold a dance in Thistle Hall which is generally very well supported by the men of the different dormitories. In the spring the council generally sponsors a Spring Formal Dance and this year the dance was held in May. This council deserves a great deal of credit for the hard work and careful consideration given to the arrangements for these dances. The council and the men have put forth every effort to prohibit the annual rioting on the eve of the I ’ill game because of the adverse criticism and notoriety. Phis celebration has been practically eliminated within the last few years because of the splendid cooperation of the Men’s Dormitory Council in this matter. This council also sponsors the athletic activities of the dormitories and encourages the men to enter into the different athletics. There is a representative from the Men’s Dormitories on the Intramural tliletic Board, and he has charge of the basketball and the mushhall activities. All halls are generally represented in the various sports. 80 Engineering Seriate OFFICERS: Thomas W. Dana. Jr., President; William A. Cleim-nl , '« • •• President; II. J.

Representatives arc elected from the four classes in the day school of Engineering College in the Spring at the regular school elections. It is the purpose of this body to act as the controlling unit of student affairs in relation to the faculty as well as in carrying out school rules and preserving Carnegie traditions. The Senate presides at all pledge and dishonor trials, and directly supervises all student functions. Aside from encouraging activities in the college, the Senate acts as a constructive unit among the students. It fosters cooperative interests, and is in truth the nucleus for the students. ★ ★ ★ 81 Fine A rts Senate W illiam Lvxdsbkhc. President; Koskm oiik (.iikmzmi, Vice-President; Ai.ick Plllimr. Secretary, anil GeorcC KittreiiCK. Treasurer. The four officers of the Student Senate of the College of Fine Arts are elected by the Senior classmen, and two representatives of each class who are presidents and vice presidents of the respective classes. The Senate presides at all Plebe and dishonor trials, regulates the balloting for all four classes, upholds the rules and traditions of the college, and directly supervises all student functions, such as the Arts and Post Arts Halls and various other social functions held during the past year. During the past year, the Arts Senate has increased its importance as a governing body. At the beginning of the year, a new constitution was drawn up settling several controversies which had arisen from past experiences. The time of meeting of the Senate was set for every two weeks. By having more regular and more frequent meetings, the Senate accomplished more this year. A rule was entered in the constitution which stated that the presidents of all classes must he men, and that the vice-presidents must he women. Another rule provided for the separate offices of vice-presi- dent of the Senate and vice-president of the Senior class. Previous to this ruling, the vice-president of the senior class automatically became vice-president of the Fine Arts Senate. The Senate, as well as regulating the political functions of the Fine Arts school, regulates the social functions. At the beginning of the first semester, the Senate sponsored several class picnics in order to bring the members into a closer fellowship with one another. The picnics, held in South Park where the shelter houses afforded space for dancing, were thoroughly enjoyed by the many students who entered into the rural festivities. Later in the year the Senate instituted another tradition by sponsoring afternoon dances held in the Exhibition room for all the students of the Arts school. The music was furnished by a victrola. The number of students attending the dance proved its success. The Senate of next year and the ones in the future will have to expend much of their energy to equal or even to surpass the accomplishments of this year's Fine Arts Senate. ¥ ¥ ¥ 82 Margaret Morrison Senate Ki.kanor Sherman. President: Margaret (Griffin. Vice-President; Margaret Shultz. Secretary, and Betty Mackey. Treasurer. Margaret Morrison Senate is composed of representatives from the student body. The president and vice-president are seniors, and are elected by all the women in that college. The secretary and treasurer of the junior class become secretary and treasurer of Senate. Also each class elects a representative to Senate. The purpose of the Margaret Morrison Senate is to control those matters which do not come directly under the jurisdiction of the faculty. These matters include the honor system, student assemblies in Margaret Morrison, organization of the freshman class, and assisting in conducting elections in Margaret Morrison. The Senate also aims to further a sense of loyalty and honor toward the school and between students, and to promote a feeling of responsibility and a spirit of mutual helpfulness and service. The accomplishments of the Senate are many and varied. This year, it conducted the Freshman Color Day Assembly and impressed the student body with its capability. The Color Day ceremony consisted of the ofTicial recognition of the freshman class. Class colors were presented to the freshmen and Dr. Watkins, ★ Dean of Margaret Morrison, spoke of the significance and ideals behind this recognition. Eleanor Sherman holds the office of president of the Margaret Morrison Senate. The vicepresidency is filled by Margaret Griffin. Margaret Schultz is the secretary, and Betty Mackey is the treasurer. The senior representative in the Senate is Katherine Conti. Clara Hall represents the junior class, Jane Fierman the sophomore class, and Mary Bell Vilsack. the freshman class. The senior representative and the president are voting members of the Student Council. Katherine Conti was sent as a representative of the Margaret Morrison College Senate to a conference at Geneva College, Beaver Falls. A benefit bridge was given under the auspices of the Senate, and the proceeds were used for the purpose of redecorating and refurnishing the smoking room in the basement of the college. At the present time, the Senate is investigating the possibilities for a study ball to be situated on the first or second floors of the building. ★ ★ ★ 83 : PUBLICATIONS The members of this year’s Thistle, staff were early impressed with the necessity of producing a good book. There was no need for a “pep talk , because each and every person answering the call for members was inspired with the importance of the publication, and knew that their efforts would have to bring perfect results, since the future success of the book depended on them. The response for members was overwhelming, and they delved into their work with such zest and spirit that the book was ready for press early in April. That, certainly, is a record, and one of which to be justly proud. It would make a long, long story ★ to tell you of all the difficulties that were surmounted. of the backing which the student body and faculty gave the book, and how the staff showed its mettle in bringing into existence the object of its concentrated ami cooperative efforts. Here, before your eyes, is the product of their labors, and that is enough said. Charles Ashhaugh received the task of getting group pictures, and a more capable choice for the photographic editor could not have been made. Paul Schwartz assisted him in launching a barrage of postal cards and phone calls. ★ ★ ★ 86 Robert Gricner, advertising manager, was inspired to match his shrewd business ability with that of established business firms. Charles Schwerin, Robert Aaron, Donald Noord, Jaek Gardener, and Robert Dc Merit were his capable assistants. Robert Croyle, business manager, is solely responsible for the active selling campaign that bad been pursued with rapid intensity. Robert Robison, art editor, made use of a comparatively new innovation in the art world for the pages of the Thistle. Forsaking the idea of expressing a theme in the interior of the book, be devised a new plan whereby a color scheme replaced the theme. The medium through which the illustrations arc presented is scratchboard drawing. The principle involved is similar to that in a wood cut; the effect, as you see, is more impressive. A chalk surface cardboard painted with black India ink is the base. On the cardboard, scratch outlines are made with a finely sharpened tool which brings the white into view. Roland Hill, designer, cooperated with every member of the staff: lie achieved the best possible effects, and still remained within the allotted budget.

THE TARTAN Always on the alert for broader channels of growth and development, the Tartan this year has brought about several significant changes in both its physical make-up and editorial policy, and has pioneered the way for a number of projects, the realization of which necessarily must rest with future staffs. Among the physical changes which make this year's paper different from that of former years is the added strength of the editorial page. Three new columns have been introduced and organized as regular features: A. C. E. containing excerpts from the weekly bulletin of the Association of College Editors, of which Carnegie is a member; the M. C. E. A., including clips from the publications of member schools of the Major College Editors Association: and W riter’s Row, devoted to original student literary contributions in short story, essay. narrative, and poetry. The Carnegie Plaid, the night school page, has also profited from a more eflicient organization, with a staff of its own. The Editorial Board of the Tartan has aimed to weave into the policy of the paper certain definite attitudes of thinking, as well as a constructive platform of activities. Griffin 88 Baer Mi net It lias scon the need for many alterations in both campus and national affairs at stake; and. visualizing an ideal situation, has tried in its own way to work toward the realization of that ideal, knowing at the same time that the constant striving for improvement has been of greater importance than any theoretical accomplishment of its objects. The tangible platform of activities entered upon by the Tartan this year included agitation for an activities building: for the creation of a psychological vocational bureau and personnel adviser; for the institution of courses in government, such as political science and practical politics; for a change in the school calendar to allow an extra day following New-Year's Day, and also an extra day before the beginning of the first semester exams; for the use of the closed ballot and open count in school elections; for the revision of the class honoraries system; and, very recently, for the erection of a new and up-to-date library building on the campus. Of this platform, two points have already been realized—the open count for elections was used in tin spring elections for class officers; and plans are being made to adjust next year's calendar to allow an extra day after New Year's Day for the convenience of out-of-town students, and an extra day before the beginning of the first semester exams to allow for more adequate preparation. The work of the outgoing staff is, of course, at an end: but the policies it upheld and worked for are still very much alive; and it is to be hoped that next year's staff, and future staffs, will keep that spark of life in its policies, and help it to develop into full maturity.

The official capacity of the Puppet is to act as the monthly impertinence of Carnegie. Although the members of the staff do not wish to test the sense of humor of groups or persons who are treated humorously in the publication, they have attempted to reassure the readers of the magazine that its contents are reflective and not malicious. The sole purpose to which the Puppet is dedicated is the hope that it may lend a smile or a laugh when the going gets tough. The magazine underwent considerable changes in the style of make-up in the past season; old columns were consolidated, new features were added, and the staff attempted to do the job just a little better than the staff of the preceding year. The Puppet was published this year under the capable direction of four editors and a staff of thirty-eight. John Richmond acted in the capacity of editor-in-chief. Lester Van Valkenburgh collected material from other college humor magazines and edited the Kxchange issue. Albert 0. Jenkins was art editor, employing many original ideas in the cover designs of the various issues. Mary Wcttach, in editing the Co-ed issue, was responsible for an innovation in the election of a Campus King. This election in addition to the other original material made this issue a particularly successful one. Acting as Business Manager, Wallis Hamilton looked after the financial end of the publication. David Schmidt, assisted by Richard Hammond, solicited advertising, while Dan Newell had charge of the day school circulation. ★ ★ ★ 90 Tri-Publications Thomas W. Dana.

The Tri-Publications staff, which edits the Student Handbook, the Student Directory, and the Carnegie Song Hook, is known on the Carnegie campus as one of its indispensable organizations. The staff is composed of students of all the colleges; the editor, business manager, and woman’s editor being seniors, and the advertising manager a junior. The Student Handbook, commonly known as the Plebe Iiible. appears at the beginning of tbc school year. Although published mainly as an aid to freshmen, it offers information valuable to any student. Its purpose is to convey the spirit and historical traditions of Carnegie, and contains a standard list and explanation of the rules and regulations governing the actions of men and women of the school, regulations regarding the dormitories, eligibility rules, and similar information. It also contains notes regarding all campus activities and lists of the officers of the classes and senates of each of the colleges. in the Stmlent Directory, and every student and organization has discovered its usefulness. The book contains complete information concerning the home address, local address, telephone number, and course of every day student enrolled at Carnegie. It includes a fraternity. sorority, and dormitory directory, as well as a complete list of tin members of all fraternities and sororities and their pledges. There is also a list of the officers of the four classes and the senates for the current year. The Directory is especially valuable to graduates who wish to keep in touch with their classmates. as well as to undergraduates during vacations and holidays. The Carnegie Song Book contains the words and music of all the school songs, as well as those of the various fraternities. It is published whenever there is need of a supply, and acts as a permanent reminder of the Carnegie spirit. 91 Every student and organization is represented Carnival inn OFFICERS: Regis Joyce.

The Daily Carnivalian, infant of Carnegie publications, is now in the second year of its existence. The publication came into being for the first time at last year's Spring Carnival. It is published on the same basis as a regular city paper, hut contains only items of interest to the school community. The Carnivalian includes many interesting features, such as the women’s page, travel page, and features by students and faculty members. The paper was published daily in a sixteen page form, the first issue making its appearance at the Coronation Hall. The next day the Carnivalian covered the local daily field by making its appearance at the Hey Day festivities. The paper contained complete details of the sweepstakes preliminaries which had just been completed a few hours before. The Saturday issue made its appearance just at the close of the call day exercises and, in addition to carrying the final returns of the sweepstakes and Hey Day competitions, contained a complete list of all those persons called hy the various honoraries. The interest aroused among the student body hy the appearances of the Carnivalian and the manner in which the students received the new venture, warranted its continuation as a permanent feature at the annual Spring Carnival. hi editing the paper the staff adopted the slogan of “The Liveliest Daily College Paper in the United States,” and the energetic efforts expended hy all the members of the staff helped them to realize this ambition, though it was for only a three flay period. ★ ★ ★ 92 MUSIC John Y.

Two years later, a man whom the hoys have learned to know as one of their host friends — Mr. E. F. Sullivan — became their leader. The unique appearance of the kilt uniforms is so striking in comparison with the usual hand uniforms that the Kilties are the center of attention wherever they go. They have gained considerable fame and national recognition in the past few years. The kilts were originally secured by student contributions in 1922. being imported from Great Britain, and the Night Student Council has from time to time made useful and necessary additions. Each year the Athletic Association sponsors at least one out-of-town trip with the football team. This year the opening game with Geneva was played at Beaver Falls where the Kilties serenaded the Tartan team. However. the trip to New York City for the New York University game will long be remembered by the band as one of the most colorful events of the college years. Before and after the game the Kilties gave a short concert in the lobby of the Hotel Pennsylvania. In ad dition to the football games they marched in several parades. The largest of these were the Armistice Day parade and a parade given to aid the Welfare campaign of Pittsburgh. Toward the end of the football season the Kilties had the interesting experience of playing for a football game between the Western Penitentiary convicts and a local semi-pro team, and visiting the prison shops and playgrounds during the course of the day. E. J. SlU.I.IVAN 91 The Kilties are justifiably proud to be the first hand to form moving letters on a football field between the half periods and to use colored balloons carrying the names of the school as part of their formations. The letter formations are very intricate and are changed for every game. Much practice is required to execute them with the precision and perfection attained by the Kilties. This year at the home-coming game with Purdue boilermakers a huge black and gold cloth boiler, which required more than 1100 balloons to fill, was sent up while the hand formed tin letter “P” and played the Purdue Alma Mater. A crowd of 25,000 New Yorkers saw the letters N. Y. U., and a comical cardboard Scotch Highlander carried aloft, while two weeks later balloons of the red and blue of Duqiicsne were launched from the “D” formation and rose in the initial letter of the “school on the hill”. But the crowning spectacle of the season was the contest with the University of Pittsburgh. Before the game the two hands united to form a soul-stirring unit of 200 men. At the halves the Kilties set free a great golden panther suspended under a battery of blue and gold balloons which soared high into the sky and then finally faded from sight. Interestingly enough, with all their years of thrilling the stadium crowds with new and ingenious displays, the Kilties have never had any of their stunts to fail. The.Kiltie Band is not only proud of its spectacular feats and appearance, hut also of its success as a concert hand. Programs given in churches and clubs of the town are only a start toward an extensive concert program, which aims to eventually include an annual “Home Concert”, a feature which is not now in vogue at Carnegie. The hand feels that both it and the student body would benefit greatly from the establishment of a concert of this type. Membership in the Kiltie Band is subject to the regular eligibility rules of the institution. Silver and gold keys are awarded for two years and four years service in the hand. 95 OFFICERS: William W ikcman. Manager: Evans Ciillnkman. Assistant Manager; Paul Koch.

The Men’s Glee Club has attained an outstanding position among the various organizations on the Carnegie campus through the serious effort and cooperation of its members. This year an extremely successful season was carried through under the direction of Professor Karl A. Malcherek. Membership in the Glee Club is open to men from both the Engineering and Arts Schools, offering to these members musical training and appreciation, as well as recreation. Silver activities keys are awarded for two years of faithful service and gold keys are given as the reward for four years active participation. Fhe Men's Glee Club has presented concerts for various organizations, including several churches, during the past year. In November they entertained at the Christ Methodist Church, and in February they presented a concert at the Third Presbyterian Church. Programs were also given for the benefit of the Helping Hand organization of Pittsburgh which were fully appreciated. This year an extremely successful program was presented at the Greek Sing and Swing, which affair the club traditionally participates in. 'flic Men’s Glee Club presented a formal program in conjunction with the Women’s Glee Club at the Annual Home Concert on April 5, in the Little Theatre. Following this concert the Combined Glee Club Dance was held: the affair was a huge success. The club broadcast a concert over KDKA on April 1 in accordance with their yearly procedure. The members accepted an invitation to sing at Seton Hill College on April 10, and at Pennsylvania College for Women on April 12, after which they were entertained by members of the Glee Clubs of the respective schools. ★ ★ 96 ★ Women’s Glee Club Ki .v Steed.

The Women’s Glee Club is one of the few combined activities for women of both Margaret Morrison and the College of Fine Arts. The ★ club’s purpose is not merely the further development of those who have special musical ability, as singing for recreation and appreciation of music are considered equally important. The club may be joined by any Carnegie woman who passes certain technical requirements and who shows an active interest in the work, flic members are rewarded for their work by the receipt of silver activities keys at the end of two years’ participation, and gold keys at the end of four years' work. Although the Glee Club did not participate in as many engagements this year as formerly, it has been far from idle. The concert season did not begin until January, and since that time the club lias sung at the West End Methodist Church, at a radio concert over station KDKA, and. for the climax of its season, at the combined concert in cooperation with the Men's Glee Club, on April 6. ★ ★ ★ 97 MILITARY Scabbard Blade OFFICERS: Nkai.

Scabbard and Blade is a national honorary military society for cadet officers of the universities and colleges in which there are Departments of Military Science and Tactics. The various chapters are designated as companies and are organized into brigades of four regiments. The organization is composed of 83 companies having a total enlistment of 22.000 members, 50 of which are Carnegie men. The charter company was founded in 1901 by four officers of the cadet corp at the I niversity of Wisconsin. The Carnegie chapter, Company G, 6th regiment, was founded in 1926. The purpose of the Scabbard and Blade is to raise the standard of military training in American colleges and universities, to unite in closer relationship their military departments, to encourage and foster the essential qualities of good and efficient officers, and to promote intimacy and good fellowship among the cadet officers. Members are chosen on the basis of proficiency in military work and fellowship. The organization sponsors numerous social gatherings during the year. One of these was the Military Ball and another, the Spring Formal. Two smokers were held during the year to create interest in the K.O.T.C. Prominent members of the I'nited States army were invited to speak at these gatherings. Trophies and medals are awarded by Scabbard and Blade to outstanding performers in military tactics. Green bars are presented to members of the best-drilled company in the competitive drill of the K.O.T.C. A medal is awarded to the best-dri lied lower classmen. The woman and man scoring the most points in the rifle teams are also presented with medals. ★ ★ ★ 100 Honorary Cadets At the Military Ball each year, the women of Carnegie have their one opportunity to demonstrate their military ability and spirit. At that affair, nine junior and senior women receive commissions as Honorary Cadet Officers. And so on November 9, nine Carnegie women, all seniors this year, marched beneath the arch of sabers to receive their insignia—eagles for the colonel, maple leaves for the two majors, and bars for the six captains. Those commissioned were: Honorary Cadet Colonel: Veronica Kloos, of Margaret Morrison, a member of Mortar Board. Student Council, Alpha Chi Alpha, and the Thistle Board.

The Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society was organized as a local chapter at the University of Maine hy the class of 1897. Since the foundation of a national society shortly afterwards, forty-seven chapters have been added, including Carnegie in 1932. Its main purpose has been to emphasize scholarship in the student’s mind and to counteract the tendencies drawing his attention away from scholastic attainment. It seeks to offer inducement for effort in study-equal to that offered in the field of athletics and other extra-curricular activities. These ideals arc fulfilled hy putting the student of high standing membership on an equal basis with members of the faculty. interfere or compete with membership in social fraternities or professional, departmental. or any other honorary societies. t Carnegie, the highest tenth of the graduating class is elected to membership each year, one twentieth being called each semester from the three colleges in proportion to each college's total enrollment. Faculty members are nominated when they have had scholastic records as undergraduates which would have entitled them to membership, or if they have attained positions of distinction. In addition to the methods adopted hy the chapters, the national organization has established an endowment called the Sparks Memorial Scholarship Fndownient, the proceeds of which, together with other special appropriations, shall he devoted to awards for the promotion of Scholarship. The democratic nature of the Society makes it one of the most important and effective of its kind. Phi Kappa Phi is merely a society, and not a secret organization or fraternity.

This organization has progressed rapidly, and today its enrollment boasts of 62 chapters, scattered throughout the leading engineering universities of the United States. The purpose of Tan Beta Pi is best expressed by the preamble to the Constitution: “To mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their alma mater by distinguished scholarships and exemplary character as undergraduates in engineering, or by their attainments as alumni in the field of engineering; and to foster a spirit of liberal culture in the engineering colleges of America.” Only those men who are in the upper-eighth of the junior class or in the upper-quarter of the senior class are eligible for membership. It is customary to make two calls annually, one during each semester; tradition allows the selection of only three juniors in the fall. This fraternity has taken an active interest in the scholarship of freshmen and has offered aid to those freshmen having dilTieully in acclimating themselves to study conditions at college. A tutorial system has been devised, whereby classes will he held for those freshmen deficient in certain courses, the tutors being members of fan Beta Pi. Along this particular project, conferences were held in conjunction with the faculty and members of the administration. A survey was carried on in which a more accurate picture of the freshman’s progress could be had. Results of this survey were published in the Tartan. At this writing no mention can be made of the actual results of the system. In addition to an interest in academic affairs, the society has sponsored a movement to bring about a more intimate relation between the student and the teacher. Along with this movement, the organization has sought to encourage a common spirit of sociability among students. 105 D. kl Twlok. I’residvnt, and Maium.in VaL'TIIINOT, Scribe.

Tau Sigma Delta is a National honorary fraternity in architecture and the allied arts, maintaining active chapters in accredited schools and colleges of architecture and the allied arts. As its standard it has the highest attainments in these fields. Its object is to unite in a firmer hand of friendship such students of architecture and the allied arts whose marked ability, character, and personality have made them worthy of distinction, and to foster and promote high standards in the school. It was founded at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on May 14th, 1913, as an honorary fraternity in architecture and landscape design, at the proposal of. and under the direction of the faculty members of the two schools. It was first known as Tau Delta Sigma and continued under that name until the fall of nineteen hundred and fourteen, when it was decided to change the name to the present one. It was the intention of the founders that the organization should he a national society. as there was opportunity for its extension to other schools and universities. For four years the fraternity operated without nationalization. proving its worth before installing the second chapter, namely Beta at Minnesota in 1917. Since that time the fraternity has grown until at the present time there are chapters located at the University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, University of California, Ohio State University, Carnegie Institute of Technology, Syracuse University, University of Pennsylvania, Illinois University, University of Liverpool, Kngland, University of Washington, Iowa State College and the University of Southern California. Gamma Chapter at Carnegie was admitted in the spring of 1919 and now has a total of 127 members. The colors are gold and white. Its flower is the red rose. This organization as a fraternity does not in any way participate in college politics, nor docs it propose to he a secret society. 106 Jou rnalistic Honoraries PI DELTA EPSILON: James M.

Alpha Chi Alpha, a national journalistic society for women, was founded at the University of Tennessee on December 17, 1919. In order to receive membership in the society, a girl must show an interest in journalism and have entered into collegiate publications for at least two years. The purpose of this organization is to honor those women who have shown ability in journalism. Since 1919 when the first chapter was founded, thirteen other chapters have been organized throughout the country. The Carnegie Institute of Technology chapter is the Theta chapter and was established in 1926. This chapter and Lambda, at Salem College, North Carolina, are the only present active chapters in the Last. At Carnegie, calls are made twice a year, in the fall and on Qualifications Day in the spring. On numerous occasions the social activities sponsored by this society at Carnegie have included dunces which are held twice a year. During the past year several supper meetings were held. At one of these meetings the national vice-president was entertained. During the last few years, the Carnegie chapter has been more active than any other national chapter. The fact that this chapter has been complimented by the national organization upon its achievements has given the society an added incentive to continue its noteworthy activity on campus publications. Pi Delta Epsilon is the men's national collegiate journalistic honorary fraternity. The purpose of the organization is to sponsor and promote undergraduate interest in college journalism. The national organization was founded in 1909 at Syracuse University. The Carnegie Chapter of Pi Delta Epsilon was established in 1923 when the local campus journalistic honorary. Alpha Alpha Nu, petitioned the national organization. ★ ★ 107 Tliela Tan OFFICERS: Roller I C. Mi-Master, Regent: John (!. Latham, Vice-Regent; Walter F. Applegate, Scribe: Albert I).

It was organized as a local mining engineering society, but now it is a national engineering honorary whose members are accepted from all branches of engineering at the option of the chapter extending the bid. At present there arc 21 chapters on the national roll. The requirements for admission are a high scholastic average, personal worthiness, and promise in engineering. Members are not permitted to join other engineering honoraries except scholastic honoraries. The badge of the society is a golden gear wheel with a dark red garnet at the bub. The lower part of the wheel is crossed by a hammer and tongs. The words Theta and Tan arc displayed between the upper spokes of the wheel and the rim is set with pearls. Only members arc authorized to wear the badge. The colors of the organization are red and gold. The flower is the Jacqueminot rose. The coat of arms has three gear wheels in the upper part and a bridge of three arches below. V hand clasping a hammer and a pair of tongs is the official crest. Theta Tau also engaged in social activities of various natures. The Engineering Honoraries Dance and others were given by the chapter. In order to be of service to the school and to advance professional standards. Theta Tau offers an award to the student judged the most promising engineer. The award consists of a bronze plaque, with the student’s name engraved on it. The plaque bangs in the corridor of the Administration Hall. The chapter at Carnegie, Nil. was established January 1, 1922. The qualifications for membership are the same as those set down by the national society. 108 OFFICERS: J.

Fla Kappa Nu is a national electrical engineering honorary fraternity, ll was founded at the University of Illinois. Urhana. October 28, 1901. Since then the fraternity has expanded until it now has twenty-three chapters in as many leading colleges and universities in the country. At present there are eight organized alumni chapters, the oldest chapter being the Pittsburgh chapter, started in 1908. Sigma Chapter of Fta Kappa Nu was founded at Carnegie in 1928 in order “that those men in the department of Electrical Engineering, who, by their attainments in college have manifested a deep interest and marked ability in their chosen life work, may he brought into closer union whereby mutual benefit may he derived.” Members, chosen on the basis of scholarship, personality, and activity are from the Junior and Senior classes of the electrical department. The current year was a particularly outstanding one for the local undergraduate chapter, bringing noteworthy comment from the National Council and invaluable aid to the student members. Only three members, Raymond P. Hanna, Thomas V. Dana, Jr., and Harry L. King, were present at the beginning of the school year, hut through the efforts of these men a surprisingly successful fellowship was formed. New members were called during Carnegie Day exercises held in the fall of the year, and formal initiation was held January 9. 1935, followed by a banquet at Carnegie Inn. Each year a Junior Electrical Engineering Student is awarded the Electrical Engineer’s Handbook by Eta Kappa Nu, upon his selection as the most promising electrical engineer. Selections are made by the faculty of the Department of Electrical Engineering and are not restricted to Eta Kappa Nu men although this year’s winner, Owen C. Coho, is a member of the organization. 109 Phi Tan Sigma s HONORARY MEMBERS: Prof. W. C. L. Trinlu, Prof. T. G. E� tcp, Prof. A. II. UlaiMlell, Prof. S. B. Ely, C. B. Thorp. FACULTY MEMBER: L. H.

The Iota chapter at Carnegie closes another school year with the happy thought that these ideals have been supported by a program of active and praiseworthy work on our campus. To the Mechanical Engineering sophomore having the highest scholastic average. Pi Tan Sigma gave a Mark's Handbook. In collaboration with Carnegie’s other engineering honoraries Pi Tau Sigma sponsored the All-Honorary Engineering Dance. And through the cooperation of all its mem- bers Pi Tau Sigma conducted the Mechanical Engineering Department’s display on “Exhibition Night.” Iota takes this opportunity to pay its respects to Professor T. G. Estep, for it was largely through his efforts that the chapter was established at Carnegie in 1930. It was at that time that a pressing need for a Mechanical Engineering honorary fraternity “to reward those students who by their scholastic attainments, activities, and personality had brought honor upon the department was recognized. The youthful Mu Epsilon, a local, was inducted into Pi Tau Sigma to accomplish this end. Members are selected from the junior and senior classes of the department of Mechanical Engineering, and are considered on a basis of sound engineering ability, scholarship, and personality. Through four years of close adherence to these principles Pi Tau Sigma has come to be recognized as a most valuable asset to Carnegie. ★ ★ ★ 110 Sigma Alpha Iota OFFICERS: Viman Johnston, President: IHrrrv W atson, Vice-I’resident: Mahjoku: Ckihbs, Secretary: Hilda Fii.kks, Treasurer; Lorktta Curay, Corresponding Secretary; Gfktkudk I.anuis.

Sigma Alpha Iota is a women’s musical honorary in the Department of Music of Carnegie. 'Die national organization was founded in 1903 at the University School of Music, Ann Arbor, Michigan, and is the oldest organization of the musical sorority type in the country. The fraternity endeavors to aid its members in professional ways and to promote music in America. As its standards, it has the highest attainments in these fields. The national organization has had a steady growth, until at the present time its membership includes sixty-five active chapters located in accredited schools and colleges of Music and Allied Arts. The membership to Sigma Alpha Iota is limited to girls studying music. They must have completed one year in the Music department. The prospective members are pledged after a program, which exhibits their skill in music; therefore we find it a competitive organization. Since May 1930, when the Alpha Mu Chapter of Sigma Alpha Iota was established at Carnegie, the students have been more interested in musical activities. This year the fraternity has been especially active. They sponsored a program of Eurythemics at Thistle Hall in December. At Christmas they held a party for the members of the organization who were at home for the holidays. The largest event of the year was a banquet at the University Club in March when the National Musical Supervisors’ Conference was held in Pittsburgh. At the banquet, visiting members of the society were guests. Gertrude Evans, the national president, installed the Alumni Chapter which has been called the Sigma Alpha Mu Chapter. The Alpha Mu Chapter at Carnegie has recently elected Mrs. William Karhart to honorary membership. Patronesses of the organization arc Mrs. C. Koch and Mrs. P. H. Curry.

Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia is the men’s musical honorary in the department of Music of the Carnegie Institute of Technology. Phi Mu Alpha was founded at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, Massachusetts, on October 6, 1898. The aim of the organization is to advance the cause of music and to promote the well-being of music in America. The national organization lias had a relatively steady growth, and now has some sixty active chapters located on the leading college campuses throughout the entire country. Alpha Omega is the local chapter. Prior to its establishment the men’s musical activities on the Carnegie Campus were sponsored almost entirely by a local honorary fraternity for music students known as the Clef Club. The local group became a chapter of the national organization of Phi Mu lpha on March ★ 26, 1928. when the Clef Club’s petition to the parent organization through the supreme council was approved and a charter granted to them. With reorganization a wider program of activities was assumed. Since the national has been established on Carnegie’s Campus, Alpha Omega Chapter has taken an active part in developing and furthering the student’s interest in music. A song contest was sponsored by the chapter in order to secure new college songs for Carnegie. The result of the contest was the addition of the Skibo song to the campus song list. At present Phi Mu Alpha is conducting another contest to secure suitable new rousing college songs which would be adaptable for instrumental and group singing arrangements. Substantial prizes are being offered to stimulate participation in an endeavor to obtain representative numbers. Also, Alpha Omega desires to promote the publication of a collection of Carnegie songs arranged for the band by a competent publisher. ★ ★ 112 Vu.1.1 m F. Uixkkk. Kuckk L. Buiikk, William S. Carlson.

Its members are selected every year from the most prominent men in the junior class on the basis of campus positions to be held the following year. They are formally hid on Call Day during the Spring Campus Week. Formal initiation into the society took place in June after school had closed. Dinner and dancing were enjoyed at the Longview Country Club. The present members are the sixteenth group of men to he initialed into Dragons. The first Dragons were founded on the campus in 1918. This came as recognition and honor for outstanding men in activities. The duties of the organization are many and extensive. They have influence in every activity on the campus, and therefore they are the most powerful organization with the exception of Student Council. All of the present ★ members have votes in that body also. During the football season dances were sponsored every Saturday night in Thistle Hall. The dances were also continued through the basketball season. In March the Dragons supported the Greek Sing and Swing. This is one of the most colorful events on the social calendar. The success of this dance met with such popular acclaim that another social function was backed by Dragons in the form of a Carnegie Spring Formal. This dance was held just before Campus W eek. In the future it will probably become a Carnegie tradition. The real importance of Dragons lies in the members themselves. The eleven men making up this group are at the head of the majority of activities on the campus. As they were responsible for the success of many undertakings, they are the ranking men’s organization in school. ★ ★ ★ 113 Mortar Boa rd OFFICERS: M. Wilhum. President; M. Vaiilrinot, Secretary; V.

Mortar Board, honorary society for senior women, was organized in 1918. In that year, representatives of local organizations from the Universities of Cornell, Michigan, Ohio State, and Swarthmorc College met at Syracuse, New York, with the purpose of establishing a permanent national organization. In spite of the fact that a local chapter must be in existence for five years before it receives national recognition, the group has grown steadily and rapidly, with three new chapters admitted during the past year. Varied and numerous as the year’s activities may he, there is one purpose behind them— service. In Homecoming Week, Mortar Board was a prominent aid, its contribution to the reunion culminated by a tea for the visiting alumnae. Another important activity is the aid to freshmen during freshman week and also the tutoring bureau for freshmen, at the end of the first semester. Mortar Board has charge of the women's activity point system and its representation in Student Council. In spite of the full program, the organization takes time out for social activities as well, as can he seen by the successful list for the past year—the Christmas party, the Coed Prom in April, the dinner preceding the Junior Prom, the formal initiation week-end at Sky-High, and finally the impressive breakfast for old and new members on the morning of commencement. In spite of the varied activities of its individual members, Mortar Board as a unit represents a definite, singular purpose. This purpose consists mainly of carrying out and furthering the ideals of the founders, as is seen in the four qualities forming the basis of its organization — scholarship, leadership, character, and service. ★ ★ ★ 114 II.

Scimitar, the men's sophomore honorary society, is an outgrowth of Druids, the national men’s sophomore honorary organization. The national society was discontinued on the Carnegie campus in 1931. The reason for this was undoubtedly the excessive national dues levied on the members by the national officers. The members of the society in 1932-33 organized themselves into the present body. It was not until the following year, however, that Scimitar became a powerful honorary on the campus. The members of Scimitar are selected each call day from the outstanding and most prominent men in activities in the freshman class. The duties of Scimitar are to enforce freshman regulations, assist in the orientation of freshmen. and to sponsor the annual Soph Hop. The 1931-35 Scimitars were very successful in carrying out their duties. In spite of the current trend towards laxness in freshmen hazing, the freshman regulations were enforced. Trials were held weekly to remind negligent plehcs that there were such things as regulations for the conduct of new students in Carnegie. The Soph Hop was very successful with its color scheme of black and silver. Leslie Siiomo was the general chairman of the dance. Earlier in the year the Scimitars sponsored a lea dance in Thistle Hall to help break up the monotony of the scholastic week. It was one of the most successful of the fall tea dances. During the Spring Carnival fifteen men from the freshman class were called to Scimitar to form the nucleus for next years society. ★ ★ ★ 115 Civens OFFICERS: Barbara Yoaki m.

Cwens, the national sophomore honorary for women, was founded at the University of Pittsburgh in 1921, under the guidance and direction of Thyrsa V. Amos, Dean of Women. They remained a local fraternity until the year 1926, when interested groups from the University of Miami at Oxford, Ohio, and the University of Missouri at Columbia, Missouri, joined to form the national fraternity. At the present time, eight chapters comprise the active roll. The Eta Chapter was first introduced on the Carnegie campus in the year 1929. Previously, Acleas, a sophomore honorary for women, had been recognized by Student Council on November 28. 1928. and its constitution accepted. The purpose of the organization is to foster leadership and fellowship among the women of the sophomore class; and to promote by friendly supervision, leadership, scholarship. and a high standard of character among the freshmen women. As has been customary, Cwens throughout the past year have carried on the work established for them in previous years. The organization made and sold armbands for freshmen women in Margaret Morrison and the Pine Arts colleges to wear during the freshmen regulations period. They assisted in acclimating the freshmen on the campus by serving as aides for the Freshmen Reception. The Cwens are the sponsors of the Twin Sisters movement on the Carnegie campus. W ith this movement, all transfer students are given Twin Sisters from the Sophomore class to help them to become acquainted and to assist them with their work. The organization sponsored a Twin Sisters tea for all transfer and graduate students in Margaret Morrison and Fine Arts colleges. The Cwens also take an active part in the social activities of the school. In November, the organization sponsored a supper dance at the I niversity Club for Cwens and their escorts. 116 Om.AMZVIlOVS Ch ristian Association i COM MU TICK OK MAN AUKMENT: Boyd C. I)enni on.

The Christian Association at Carnegie is a student and faculty service institution, established to meet the social, cultural, and religious needs of individuals and student groups regardless of creed. The association attempts to surround the students with such influences as shall help them to live clean lives, and lead them into active church relationships according to their several beliefs. To round out the social side of the program the association maintains a club room for study and recreational purposes. Entertainments are held at intervals throughout the year. Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners are arranged, and invitations to private homes are provided for students remaining in the city during holiday periods. A great part of the work is devoted to helping the new student. Contact is made with him before lie arrives on the campus, and every possible assistance is given in order that lie may he not only happy in his new surroundings, hut that lie may become a loyal Carnegie student. During Freshman Week, two events arc sponsored which are especially helpful in introducing him to his classmates and to college life. These two events are the corn roast and field day, and the freshman supper. 'file religious program of the association is carried on largely through close cooperation with churches near the campus. By furnishing guides the entering student is introduced to the church of his choice on the first Sunday of the college year. The chapel services which are held in the theater of the College of Fine Arts are also supported hv the Christian Association. Another important feature of the yearly program of the Christian Association of Carnegie is the Cooksburg retreat which occurs during the first week-end in May. This year the group of faculty members and students journeyed to the virgin timbers of Cooks Forest where an enjoyable week-end was spent. 118 Y.W.C.A. OFFICERS: Gwrn Haddock, ’resident; Emily Bumgarner, Fire ’resident; 1-ouiM- Mi'ixncr, Treasurer; Ruth Nichols, Secretary. The ultimate purpose of the Y. W. C. A. at Carnegie Institute of Technology is to participate in the work of the world’s Young WOmen's Christian Association, and to advance the physical, social, intellectual, moral, and spiritual interest of all Carnegie girls regardless of creed. A great part of the work of the Y. W. C. A. is devoted to getting the new student settled in campus life. This is provided for through the Big and Little Sister movement. In the spring, the vice-president of the cabinet compiles a list of prospective freshman, and in the summer she sends their names to junior and senior girls who will advise, and aid the freshman girls in registering. The older girls communicate with their charges before school begins. Every possible assistance is given so that the freshman may he not only happy in her new surroundings, hut also that she may become a loyal Carnegie student. During Freshman Week, the Y. W. C. A. sponsors a freshman supper to help the student become acquainted with her classmates. During the school year, monthly dinners, featuring prominent men as speakers, are held. Perhaps the most stimulating meeting of the year was the joint Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Christmas dinner at the Carnegie Inn. The Men’s Glee Club furnished a festive air as they sang Christmas carols. Other joint meetings, at Mr. Rollin Davis’ home and at the Delta Upsilon house, proved interesting also. The freshman cabinet is invited to all senior cabinet functions, although it is a separate unit. Under the guidance of a senior cabinet member, the freshman cabinet is organized. This body holds meetings and discussions. The senior cabinet lias an advisory board, partly made up of faculty members. Included arc Dean Mary Watson Green. Mrs. Patterson, Dr. Clara Miller, Mrs. Edith Cranna, and Miss Sally Beatty. At meetings with cabinet members. they give suggestions for better materialization of Y. W. C. A. work. ★ ★ 119 Women's Scholarship Organization Mary Jam. Provost. President: Sui I'll.mu. Vice-President from College of Fine Arts: Betty- McGregor.

Several years ago it became necessary to devise some means of financially aiding the deserving women students who were desirous of entering the College of Fine Arts and Margaret Morrison. The Women’s Scholarship Organization was founded, and came to the front immediately to forward this worthwhile endeavor in behalf of worthy co-eds. Before such a helpful association was definitely organized, all campus organizations held benefit functions, and contributed the returns to a general scholarship fund. This organization served the purpose, hut the comparatively new association meets the necessity with even greater success and efficiency. Its members comprise the officers of all the women’s organizations on the Carnegie campus, and its purpose unites these women in an effort to provide funds for the scholarships awarded by them each semester on the basis of ability, character, and the need for assistance. The organization usually sponsors an annual theater benefit in order to raise a fund sufficient to supply scholarships to numerous needy students, hut this year it promoted a most successful all-Carnegie activity when it presented two benefit ballets, “Persephone” and Chromatic Fantasy, at the Little Theater in Irene Kaufmann Settlement on April 2 and 3. Because “Persephone” was so favorably received last year at its premiere, it was revamped and revised. The committee in charge made no mistake in repeating it along with the colorful ballet “Chromatic Fantasy. ' Six different dances were combined in the latter ballet interpreting the moods created by the various colors of red, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and climaxed in a lovely grand finale. The former ballet was a movement drama based on an old Greek myth. Karl Wilde and George Youngling, of the Department of Music, composed the melodies. 120 W omen 9s Athletic Association OFFICERS: Margorrl Watters President: Catherine Conti, Pice-President: Maud Bowers, Secretary-Treasurer.

The board consists of the association officers and managers of the various sports. Each manager has the responsibility of pushing her sport, of making the girls want to participate in it ami then, of making the season interesting. turned out for archery necessitated the buying of more bows. Two hockey practices were held daily during the season to accommodate the number of girls desiring to play. Rifle has always been popular and will continue to be so because of the prominence to which the women’s rifle team has risen in the last few years. Swimming practices like those of the majority of other sports were spent in preparing for inter-class meets which are held at the end of the season and attended by a great deal of excitement since rivalry does exist between the classes. The Outing Club which was formed at the beginning of this year includes hiking, ice-skating and roller-skating as its activities. 'I'lie activities of the W. A. A. Board do not stop with sports management. Members of the hoard have on several occasions attended play-days at the University of Pittsburgh, Duquesne, and California State Teachers’ College. Our board initiated a new custom this year by inviting the members of the athletic boards from Pitt, Duquesne and P. C.

The Bacchanalians, one of the youngest organizations oil Carnegie's campus, had steadily grown and expanded since its inception in 1932. Their show on the last day of the Spring Carnival has become a regular feature and very popular as well. The first production of this group, “Tar and Feathers,” a musical revue, was presented on May 31, 1932. in the gymnasium amid much excitement and gaiety. The show proved a real “hit” and was enthusiastically received. A similar production satirizing well-known persons and institutions entitled “Over the Coals” was given the following year. Like “Tar and Feathers. it was written and produced entirely by the students. It was presented on May 12 and 13, 1933, in the Pitt Theatre. Last year the Bacchanalians presented a sparkling comedy by the talented Pittsburgh playwright. Miss Rosemary Casey, who also wrote this year’s show. The play was “Love Is Not Important,” and was given in the Nixon theatre on May 11 and 12. 1934. Directed by Chester Wallace and portrayed by an excellent cast, “Love Is Not Important” drew praise from the local critics. The latest production, “The Shining Armor.” also by Miss Casey who collaborated with Mr. B. I len Payne, was the climax of this year’s Spring Carnival, playing at the Davis Theatre May 10 and 11. 1935. It was also directed by Chester Wallace. The cast of “The Shining Armor” was as follows: Stephan Davis, the father . George Lloyd Shirley Davis, the daughter .

The Interfraternity Council was established on the Carnegie campus to enable the fraternities to express themselves through a central body. Kacli member fraternity is represented on the Council by its president or by a man appointed by him. These men, in regular meetings. determine the action to be taken and the events to be sponsored by the fraternities throughout the year. One of the most important undertakings of several years was attempted this year when the newly adopted rushing rules were enforced. The rules were drawn up by last year's Council. but the enforcement fell to the 1931 1930 group. I ndcr the new plan the incoming stu-.bmts are given pamphlets, published by the Council and giving accurate information concerning the present members and their national affiliations, from which they could obtain facts about the various chapters on the campus, nother innovation was the preliminary period of three days, the dates for which were made through the office of the dean of men. After this first period, the regular open rushing was observed, as in previous years. All of the member fraternities are entitled to join the Steward’s Guild, an organization through which much of the buying among the fraternities is handled. The Guild is very helpful in furthering economy in the buying of food and supplies. 11 of the intramural sports on the campus are directly supported by the Council. In this way many men who do not have the opportunity to participate in inter-scholastic athletics arc given the chance to compete in sports. This year the sports sponsored by the Council were: basketball, swimming, and mushhall. The sweepstakes, held during campus week, arc open to fraternities only. The bridge tournament is also under this restriction. The Interfraternity formal dance, which was held on March 1. is another activity which the Council promotes. It was held at the illiam Penn and attended principally by fraternity men. either active or alumni. ★ ★ 123 ALPHA SIGMA PHI OFFICERS: J. E. Douglas, Jr., President; J. E. Robinson, Vice-President; J.

PLEDGES 126 Alpha Gamma Alpha Sigma Phi Fraternity was founded at Vale I Diversity on December 6, 1815, by three undergraduates, Louis Manigault, S. Ormsby Rhea, and Horace Spangler W'eisler. It is one of the oldest fraternities in existence in the Tinted States. The fraternity is controlled by national headquarters which are located in New York City, and each chapter is subject to the jurisdiction of the national officers. Since its founding the fraternity has expanded to thirty-three chapters. These chapters are located on the campuses of only the finest schools in the United States. To keep the fraternity exclusive, it was necessary to do this, and select only those local fraternities which were outstanding at their respective schools to become chapters in Alpha Sigma Phi. Such has been the policy of expansion. The chapter at Carnegie Tech, known as the Alpha Gamma Chapter, was founded in 1925. The local fraternity which petitioned Alpha Sigma Phi was known as Iota Sigma Delta and was one of the strongest local fraternities ever to exist at Carnegie Tech. In view of this fact. Alpha Sigma Phi’s Prudential Committee se- lected Iota Sigma Delta to carry on the traditions of the fraternity at Tech. The Alpha Sigma Phi Fraternity celebrated its eighty-ninth birthday this year with a number of entertainments which started with Alumni Home-coming. During this affair the house excelled in decorations. Parties, smokers, and a well planned orchestra dance formed the program. This celebration continued through rushing week, during which a tea dance and the regular orchestra dance were held. The pledges and actives of the house show a fine cooperative spirit every year by holding two or three dances for each other. The pledge dances are conducted in every measure by the pledges, with decorations at every dance. This year these were enjoyed immensely along with a number of parties consisting of box socials, pop-eye parties, and radio dances. The spring formal this year was held with its usual success at the Pittsburgh Country Club with one of our local orchestras furnishing the music. This dance ended the very successful social season this year. 127 ALPHA TAU OMEGA OFFICERS: Donald C. Blackwood, President: Paul J. Gal-breath, Secretary: Frederick R. McKclvcy, Treasurer.

It was founded at Richmond, Virginia, on September 11, 1865, ami its first chapter was established at the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Virginia. Its Founders—Otis Allan Glazebrook, Alfred Marshall, and Erskine Mayo Ross—were three young Confederate soldiers. Their prime object was to restore the Union, to unite fraternally the young men of the South with those of the North and to foster a Christian brotherhood dedicated to the task of achieving and cherishing permanent peace. The first Northern chapter. Pennsylvania Tau. was established at the I niversity of Pennsylvania on April 8, 1881. ith this opening accomplished, additional chapters soon followed until at the end of 1888 forty-two chapters had been established. After the Spanish-American War, the North and South fighting side by side under the old flag. Alpha Tau Omega discovered that it had become a nationwide organization: Its forty- ★ two active chapters were now distributed in twenty states from coast to coast. Expansion became comparatively rapid until at the present time there are ninety-six chapters of Alpha Tau Omega spread throughout the United States. The membership has long ago passed the thirty thousand mark and is still increasing. 'file Carnegie Chapter. Delta Pi, was founded in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, June 28, 1928. This chapter absorbed Delta Xi Club (1908). a local organization of Carnegie Institute of Technology. The official publication of the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity is the Palm, one of the foremost fraternity magazines in America. The social season of Delta Pi Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega opened with a reception for the parents in an effort to acquaint them with the fraternity's new house.

Pl-EDCF-S 130 Zela Beta Sigma Rlio was organized originally as a local fraternity at Cornell 1 niversity in 1910 under the name of Beta Sainacli. It has grown into a national after many changes of purposes, ideals, and even a change of name. There were no formulated ideals, at first, except the intention to hind Jewish men of good personality, no matter how poor in purse, into a fraternity, so that they could enjoy each other’s friendship to better advantage, flic ideal of scholarship arose as a tradition merely because the more prominent of the men were exceptional students. The stress upon Judaism also arose out of a common characteristic and not from an expressed ideal. Gradually more liberal policies were adopted until regular dues were levied, and a house was purchased. The increase in the number of men desiring to share the benefits and advantages of Beta Samacli membership was so rapid that the fraternity decided its benefits were sufficiently apparent to warrant efforts for nationalization. file Zcta Chapter at Carnegie was installed in 1922. It was originally a local organization known as Alpha Pi. The present house on Wightman Street, which is one of the most beautiful residences on the Carnegie campus, was acquired in 1931. The spacious, well planned rooms lend themselves admirably to dances and house parties. With the house as a basis, the social committees plan and carry through interesting and entertaining social programs. The general policy is to hold dances at three-week intervals, each having its own motif and its own decorations. Some of the outstanding events of the past year were: The Hallowe’en Costume Ball. The Terrace Garden Rushing Dance, The Mistle-toe Christmas Dance, The Variety New Year Party, The Inter-fraternity Breakfast, The Japanese Garden Fete, The April Showers Dance, the Spring Formal, and the Farewell Party. Beta Sigma Rlio is equally active in other fields. Entering all intramural contests, its teams, while seldom being of championship calibre, nevertheless make consistently good showings. Its members have entered campus activities conscientiously and vigorously, holding important positions on the publications and on various varsity teams. 131 BETA THETA PI CHAPTER OFFICERS: W illiam W.

Pledges 132 Ninety-six years ago, Beta Tlieta Pi, the first college fraternity to spring np in the frontier west of the Hlcgheny mountains, was founded at Miami University, Oxford, Ohio. Two other well-known college fraternities. Sigma Chi and Phi Delta Theta, also came into being in the little college town of Oxford some years later. W ith these. Beta Theta Pi forms the famous Miami Triad. Since its founding on August 8. 1889. the fraternity has grown with such strides that it now boasts of eighty-seven active chapters located throughout the I nited States and Canada and embraces a membership of over fO.OOO men. The early days of the fraternity were characterized by very slow expansion because of the anti-secret society laws then in force in most colleges. The anti-fraternity movement was again felt during the Civil War, at which time all of the Southern chapters suspended their activities. With the return of peace and the reconstruction period of the United States history, these chapters were revived, a renewed life and enthusiasm was taken on by the fraternity as a whole, and expansion once more continued. All of the chapters, with the exception of five, own their own houses. I'lie property valuation of the fraternity amounts to over three and one-half million dollars. In 1919 two endowment funds were established. The Baird Fund was designed primarily to support the publication of the fraternity magazine. The Beta Theta Pi. The Founders’ Fund, also established at that time, is for general endowment purposes. I'lie Carnegie chapter, the Gamma Iota of Beta Theta Pi, was installed in May, 1920. after having existed for several years on the campus as a local fraternity known as the Slide Rule Club which later changed its name to Sigma Kho. Since its installation, nearly three hundred men have become Betas in the Carnegie chapter. Gamma Iota attempts to develop the social, as well as the intellectual faculties of its members. This fact is quite evident in the fact that its members are encouraged in their keen interest in extra-curricular activities. Their annual Homecoming Dance and Hick Party were held at the chapter house last fall. 133 DELTA UPSILON OFFICERS: N. L. Brown, President; W. G. Holiday, Pice-President; C. A. Boehme, Treasurer: O.

It was organized as an anti-secret brotherhood, opposing the secret groups, and was joined by similar groups in other colleges, as the Equitable Fraternity. This original group consisted of seven chapters. In 18.”� I. the organization was incorporated and the name Delta Upsilon was chosen. The Carnegie Chapter was organized from the old Woodlawn Club which later formed the local fraternity. Sigma Tan, for the purpose of petitioning the national Delta Upsilon. In 1917 a charter was granted Sigma Tan, and it became the Carnegie Chapter. Since 1900 the Fraternity has adopted a conservative policy making the requirements for a charter much more strict and aiding in maintaining the high standards of the national organization. The record of no inactive chapters speaks much in favor of the plan. Since its adoption, expansion has been carried on until at the present time the chapters number fifty-nine. The social calendar for Delta I psilon was more full this year than usual. The Alumni Banquet was an informal affair held in the house with about fifteen alumni present. This was followed shortly by the homecoming dance with about sixty-five couples attending. A major event of the year was the Centennial Celebration which was held November 3. Open house was held in the evening with many members of the faculty. Students, and alumni attending. There was an interesting exhibition of the history of the chapter which included the original petition sent to Delta Upsilon for recognition. The annual Christmas party was held just before vacation. Tile Fledge dance was the next important event after the holidays. The provincial conference, another important event of the year, was held April 12 and 13. Representatives from the eight other chapters of this province met at the Carnegie chapter and enjoyed a varied program. Friday night a banquet and smoker were held for the members of the conference. Saturday’s program consisted of a tour of Pittsburgh and a banquet which was ended with an enjoyable dance at the house in the evening. 135 DELTA TAU DELTA OFFICERS: E. S. Lntimorc, President; T. V.

This organization continued to grow and in 1919 petitioned for admittance to Delta Tau Delta. After four petitions a charter was granted to the Delta Beta Chapter in 1923. The fraternity has continued to mount steadily to a position of importance ami respect in the fraternity life at Carnegie. There are three full-time traveling secretaries who devote their entire time to visiting the Delt chapters for the purpose of promoting and assisting them in all their undertakings. It is due to a fine national organization that Delta Tau Delta is aide to properly maintain and keep on a high standard the seventy-five undergraduate chapters with an active membership of over 24,000. The annual Homecoming Dance brought most of last year’s alumni and some of previous classes back to the Shelter to join with the active Dells. Melody was supplied hv Bill Kose and his Orchestra. During rushing week, a tea dance was given for the freshmen. The strenuous season was climaxed by the Dell Cotillion on December 8th, with sixty-five couples attending the dinner-dance. Jack Logan’s Orchestra from New York contributed an exceptionally fine program. Following probation period and formal initiation for the new men of Delta Tau Delta, the actives welcomed the neophytes with a formal banquet and dance on April 13th. Ches Walter’s orchestra added to the enjoyment of the evening. The Dell Spring Formal was held this year at one of the district’s foremost country clubs. To top off a successful social season, a farewell party was held for the seniors in conjunction with Gamma Sigma Chapter, at the University of Pittsburgh. On January 30. 19.35, a Delta Tau Delta radio broadcast was presented at 10:00 P. M., over a nation-wide hookup. A unique feature in the program was a conversation with a Delt located at the South Pole with Admiral Byrd’s Expedition.

Kimball, early in bis college years, assumed the position of a leader in the strong body of neutral men organized as the Commons Club. On May 17. 1905, Beecher, Coates, and Kimball met in the room of the latter, I 1 Painter Hall and came to a definite decision on the organization. Kappa Delta Rlio remained organized as a local fraternity until 1912 when Harold A. Scvery, a graduate of Middlebury and one of the fraternity’s first initiates, entered Cornell for graduate work. A group of men with the same ideals as the Middlebury group soon organized around Severy, and on May 24, 1913, a delegation was sent to install the Beta chapter. The organization continued to grow until its present nineteen chapters extend from Colby College to the I niversity of California. Tau chapter, at Carnegie, began as a local fraternity known as Delta Mu. This was founded in Magill Hall in January, 1921, and by 1923 recognition was gained by obtaining a full voting membership in the interim- ternily Council. In the spring of 1930 Delta Mu received its charter and became known as Tau Chapter of Kappa Delta Rlio. flie (Juill and Scroll is the national publication of the fraternity. The colors are red and blue, and the flower is the red rose. The Alumni dance began a series of four dances of the year. This turned out to be a fine success with about eighty couples attending, including many representatives from Penn State and Purdue. The music was ably provided by George Calven and bis orchestra. This was followed later in the fall by a rushing dance. I bis spring the pledges took charge of the annual Pledge Dance which proved to be a great success. This was followed by the Spring Formal which was held in the Patio Boom of the Hotel Schenley. This dance was held as an Initiation Formal. The formal initiation of the pledges was held in the afternoon and was followed by a dinner and the dance in the evening. 139 KAPPA SIGMA OFFICERS: N. Olson, President: K.

I hese five. William Grigsby McCormick. George Miles Arnold, Edmund Law Rogers, Frank Courtney Nicodemus, and John Covert Boyd, are known in the history of the fraternity as “the five friends and brothers. In tradition. Kappa Sigma is an outgrowth of a student secret order of the Renaissance period, and still maintains the ritual, the customs, and, in part, the ideals based upon the revival of learning in Europe. Today, there is a total of 108 active chapters in colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada, with an approximate total initiated membership of 33.000. The fraternity owns ninety-five of the chapter houses. The Carnegie Chapter dates hack to 1913 w hen ten men, active in campus affairs, established a club known then as the Booster's Club. The name was soon changed to Ophcleum, and the organization received the rating of a local fraternity, there being no chapters of national fraternities on the campus at that time. On April 12 and 13, 1921, the Opheleum fraternity was installed as the Delta Alpha Chapter of Kappa Sigma, and in April, 1923. the present house at 624 Clyde Street was purchased, making Kappa Sigma one of the few Tech fraternities owning its own chapter house. The social season of the past year was opened in October with the Get-together Dance for the purpose of renewing associations of the year before. Following closely were the Homecoming Dance when alumni and their wives and guests were entertained for two days, and the Christmas Dance held on the last school day of the year as a farewell before the Christmas holidays. Between the two events were the rushing affairs, including a tea dance and an orchestra dance on tin last evening of rushing. In the second semester, the local chapter entertained at the Annual Conclave of the Kappa Sigma chapters of the district at a formal dance at the Pittsburgh Country Club. As the crowning event of the season, was the Kid party held the last evening of the school year. 141 PHI SIGMA KAPPA OFFICERS: J. Forsyth, President; J. House, Vice-I’residvnl; K.

It adopted the Greek name five years after this date, being previously known as the •Three TV’ The fraternity, although founded in a land grant college, expanded into privately endowed institutions. Today half of the chapters are in land grant colleges and universities. The first addition to Phi Sigma Kappa was in 1888 at the Albany Medical School. The twelve years following this step constituted a most critical period when every conceivable obstacle was encountered. Public distrust in the entire fraternity system, an empty treasury, no adequate organization for chapter supervision. and a small alumni body were but a few of the difficulties encountered. The fraternity survived these years of competition by fine cooperation, and in 1900 Phi Sigma Kappa consisted of twelve chapters, for the most part well-organized and disciplined. legislative power is vested in the biennial convention, where the suffrage is on the basis of one vote for each group of ten active chapter members, one for each group of ten alumni club members, one for each chapter advisor, and one for each present or former national officer. Supplementing the general convention are the annual regional conclaves, which must recommend all charters within their respective territories and elect a representative to the grand council which is the executive branch of the government. The judicial functions of the government are exercised by the supreme court. Since 1900 Phi Sigma Kappa has developed steadily until the chapter roll has been increased to a total of fifty chapters. The fraternity has for its national publication the Signet. The colors are magenta and silver, and the flower is the magenta carnation. Autumn is an active season at the Phi Sigma Kappa house with a wide variety of events including mushball, tennis, quoits, and dancing. This year an old-fashioned corn roast was held at Hatch’s Farm. Since 1891 the larger part of the Phi Sigma Kappa constitution has been non-secret. The 145 PI KAPPA ALPHA OFFICERS: L. Huger Burke. President; Henry R. Patterson, Vice-President: Walter R.

It continued to exist, for the next four decades, as strictly a southern fraternity. Soon, however, it began to expand into the West, and the fraternity gradually grew into a nation-wide organization. It now has 79 chapters distributed over the country. At the last convention it was decided to make Pi Kappa Alpha international in character, and permission to expand into Canada was granted. The Carnegie chapter was first organized as a local fraternity known as Zeta Delta. The chapter existed as a local until 1921 when it was initiated into the national organization as Beta Sigma Chapter. Last year marked the installation of a chapter at the I niversity of Pittsburgh. The purpose of Pi Kappa Alpha is to foster and instill among its members a strong bond of friendship and affection, encouraging scholarship and activity in all branches of college life. The national publication. The Shield and Diamond. is published quarterly, while the local chapter publishes the Scotch Neivs. The colors of the fraternity are garnet and gold, and the flower is the Lily of the Valley. Homecoming Day marked the beginning of the Pi Kappa Alpha social season this year. A dance was held in the evening with Sid Dick-lcr’s orchestra furnishing the music. It was attended by some of the visiting Purdue foot-hall players including Purvis, one of the stars of the game. Rushing season soon followed with a radio dance and an orchestra dance, featuring Baron Elliot. The Kid Party was also an enjoyable event this year. Extensive interior decorations were made for the party. Children’s costumes were worn and an array of lollipops and toys decorated the house. ★ ★ ★ I 17 SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON OFFICERS: E. G.

Eight men had grouped together forming a bard and fast friendship; they were, Noble DeVotie, John Ktidolph. John Kerr, Wade Foster, Nathan Cockrell, Aimer Patton, Samuel Dennis and Thomas Cook. The leader of this group was Noble DeVotie who had written the ritual and chosen the name. Since the intent of the founders was to have a national organization, the fraternity gradual l began to grow, and in 1857 seven chapters existed. However, the Civil War. which played havoc with all fraternities, left the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity with only one chapter which immediately took up the difli-cult task of rebuilding the organization. The Ci il ar left an antagonistic feeling between the North and South which hindered the growth of the fraternity north of the Mason and Dixon Line. By 1883. however, a northern chapter was founded at Pennsylvania College, now Gettysburg College. This opened ★ a period of northern expansion, ami from this time the fraternity spread rapidly through northern and western institutions. Today the fraternity has 108 active chapters with a total membership of 45,000. There arc Alumni Associations in 105 mcrican cities and in Paris. Three hundred and seventy-six members . served during the Civil War, among whom more than sixty lost their lives. The World ar found over 8.000 members in the service. At this time the members in the A. E. F. organized wherever possible. The Uumni Association at Paris held regular monthly meetings throughout the war. The national headquarters at Evanston, Illinois. boasts of a line national house which contains a large library of books covering fraternity subjects in general and a museum devoted to the merican college fraternity.

A strong fellowship of men, led by the founders, James F. Hopkins. Greenfield Quarles, and James M. Riley, became very active at that time. From this humhlc and courageous beginning the fraternity has grown until there are now ninety-eight active chapters distributed over the entire United States. The Carnegie chapter of Sigma Nu began as a local fraternity known as Beta Theta Kpsilon in 1906. In 1916, the local fraternity was accepted and installed as Delta Sigma Chapter of the Sigma Nu fraternity. Two years previous to this Beta Theta Kpsilon had bought a house on Forbes Street. The Creed of Sigma Nu. as written by Waller J. Sears, gives a clear understanding of the ideals of its founders and the objects of its members: “To believe in the life of love, to walk in the way of honor, to serve in the light of truth—this is the Life, the Way, and the Light of Sigma Nuism—this is the creed of our fraternity.” At one time it was the policy of Delta Sigma chapter to have as many athletes as possible. This has been altered, however, to include the representative college student. The scholastic ability of the fraternity is shown in the fact that Delta Sigma Chapter now holds the Scholarship Cup for the Fifth Division of Sigma Nu and also that of the Carnegie Campus for the year 1933-34. Tradition plays a large part in the social program every year at Delta Sigma chapter, there being several functions that are annual events. During the football season, usually after one of the big games, comes the alumni reunion, followed by the homecoming dance. Just before the members leave for their Christmas vacations they get together and put over a party for themselves and the new pledges. Immediately after school reconvenes in January a ham dance is held. Later in the spring Parents’ Day is observed. This enables the parents to visit the boys and hence helps to bring about a better understanding between the fraternity and the members’ families. The main event following initiation is the Spring Formal. This is a dinner-dance and is usually held at one of Pittsburgh’s country clubs. 151 SIGMA PHI EPSILON Pennsylvania Theta Chapter.

From an humble origin the little organization of seven members grew in size and prestige on the university campus until its fame spread far and wide, causing similar groups under the name of Sigma Phi Kpsilon to make their appearance in the sports, social, and scholastic annals of many other leading colleges throughout the country. Thus Pennsylvania Theta, formed by a group of earnest, hard-working Carnegie students, became a link in this large national chain. Sigma Phi Kpsilon Fraternity, upon their recognition and admission by the Grand Chapter on October 10, 1925. Like its “Mother Chapter” it, too, grew from Lilliputian size to much greater proportions. The Pledge Dance and the House Spring Formal, were the season's highlights, calling for elaborate settings and preparation. Roller skating and theater parties also had their places on the social calendar of the chapter during the past season. Also, at the Interfra-ternitv Formal the chapter was very well represented. Mthough Sigma Phi Epsilon is rightly termed a social fraternity, social activities are not classed above scholastic attainments among its members and pledges. It has been their sincere desire to keep the chapter well above the water line in scholarship anti to have at the close of the school year some achievement, both as individuals and as a group, that they might be proud to look back upon. Consequent!) several of the organization have succeeded in becoming members of honorary fraternities of the school, and in placing themselves upon the college honor roll. Among these men, both students of architecture and of engineering are represented. And as a group, the chapter fulfilled its aspiration by ranking high in the scholastic rating on the campus. Sports, scholastic competition, and rushing have brought the fraternity face to face with many problems concerning relationships with other houses upon the campus. Sigma Phi Kpsilon wishes not to be a single fraternity existing apart from all others: but desires to enter with full enthusiasm all intramural activities, hoping at the same time to promote good will and fellowship upon the campus. ★ 153 TIIETA XI OFFICERS: R.

Pl.KDKKS 154 Theta Xi was founded at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, pril 29. 1861. when eight students formally took the oath of initiation and signed the constitution. It was the only fraternity to he founded during the Civil War period, when fraternity activity elsewhere was at a standstill. All of the founders have been members of the local Sigma Delta fraternity established in 1839 at Rensselaer, but dissension had crept into the ranks of its thirteen members, and two factions had arisen. 'Pile eight members of Theta i. considering such a condition incompatible with their ideal of unity and fellowship. determined to build anew, with the intention of forming a society national in its scope. Accordingly, at meetings held April 1 and April 6. all preliminary preparations were made, and the monogram Theta Xi was chosen. Pile growth of the fraternity has been definitely limited to Pi fly-five chapters, a number which it considers as its ideal for a national fraternity. Because Theta Xi was founded in a technical fraternity, its membership was at first limited to students working for a B. S. degree. Later Theta Xi became a general social fraternity. Pile fraternity publication is the Unicorn of Theta Xi. a quarterly magazine. Pi Chapter of Theta Xi at Carnegie was formed from the former locally prominent Gamma Kappa Club, founded in 1908. It was granted its charter as Pi Chapter of Theta Xi in 1912. It was the first national fraternity on the Carnegie campus, and the only one until 1917. The Theta Xi Fraternity has a very extensive social season each year and especially was this so in the school year of 1931-35. The first major social event of the year was the Homecoming Dance which took place on October 27th. 'Phe Engineers’ Ball was held on the night of the Beaux Art’s Ball on February 15th, the Pledge Dance on the night of March 16th. and the Spring Dance on April 6th. The Theta Xi's have always been noted in extending invitations to all of their dances and smokers to the neighboring fraternities. Beside the dances a Faculty Smoker was held on March 14th. The Spring Formal is the major social event of the school year. It was held at the Pittsburgh Field Club on the first week in May. 155 Beta Tan Lambda OFFICERS: Rone M akie Grentzner.

The social season was opened with a pre-school luncheon, held at Kaufmann’s in the middle of September, at which time the year book which had been planned and printed during the summer was given to the members. Dates for all meetings, dinners, and dances, and the committees for each were listed in the book. It has been found to be a great aid, doing away with any conflict with other events, having been made out after the social calendar for the school was planned. During the year informal dances were held at the various holidays, the outstanding dance being the Christmas formal at the University Club. Bushing season was opened with a formal dance. A tea and buffet supper constituted the remaining rushing events. At the close of the pledge period the members were entertained at a formal dance at the Penn Lincoln Hotel by the pledges.

In later years the alumni formed the first sorority alumni organization at Carnegie. Although the sorority has not been the holder of this cup to any extent, it has many activities leaders on the campus. This year’s social affairs began with a realistic Hallowe’en dance held in the country. The Christmas dinner was held this year at the Roosevelt Hotel.

The Gamma Phi Sigma sorority of Margaret Morrison was officially recognized tliis winter by Intersorority Council and Student Council. Gamma Phi Sigma had been in existence as a sorority since January, 1934. t that time formal petitions for recognition were made. According to the constitution of both councils. a sorority must be in existence at least one year before recognition is possible. Gamma Phi Sigma came into existence to satisfy a definite need felt by the students of Margaret Morrison. This was the bringing into closer contact the members of the various departments. In the past, after the freshman year, the members of the various departments seemed to have little in common because of the great difference in the courses and types of work pursued. The organization was also founded for the purposes of providing some social life for students in Margaret Morrison and of bringing dormitory girls in closer contact with the students who commute. The sorority was organized by its twelve charter members, and plans for the future were immediately made. The first rushing took place in March 1934.

The major social events of the sorority during the past year were varied. First of all there was a wiener roast. A formal rushing dance took place at the Penn-Lincoln hotel. 'I'liis was followed hy a rushing breakfast at the home of Hetty DumhofT and a rushing tea at the home of Ruth Sclmielz. The formal initiation banquet at the Roosevelt Hotel formally introduced the pledges into the sorority. 159 Kappa Phi Delta j OFFICERS: Martha Denim , President; Margaret Shull ..

The Kappa Phi Delta sorority of Margaret Morrison was organized in 1929 by a group of freshman girls. Their purpose in organizing was to promote a feeling of friendship among the girls of Margaret Morrison, and to start work toward obtaining for Margaret Morrison girls the privilege of having recognized sororities. In the spring of their freshman year this group petitioned for recognition on campus, hut were advised to wait for three years. They continued as an organized group, and at the end of their senior year they petitioned again. At this time they received the approval of President Baker and Doctor Watkins, and were permitted to hid for new members. In the spring of 1933 they initiated three juniors and nine sophomores who were selected to carry on the work toward receiving complete recog- nition as an organized sorority. In the fall of 1933 the new members petitioned the Intersorority Council of the College of Fine Arts and Student Council. They received recognition from both. The recognition of sororities in Margaret Morrison necessitated a change in the rushing rules, since problems arise in connection with sororities in the College of Fine Arts which are not related to those of Margaret Morrison sororities. Early in the fall of 1934 the constitution of the Intersorority Council was amended to provide for a council which should have two branches, one of which is to have jurisdiction over matters concerning sororities in the College of Fine Arts, and another of which is to have authority over the sororities in Margaret Morrison. In matters concerning women of Carnegie as a whole, the two branches of the council meet as one. In 1935, for the first time, the sororities of Margaret Morrison and the College of Fine Arts joined in a social event at the Intersorority formal. In their two years as a recognized sorority, the members of Kappa Phi Delta have been active on campus and have been interested in class and student activities. 160 MAJOK THE GRIDIRON Howard Harpster and Don Lovewell have completed their second season as Head Coaches of the Tartan gridders. Since this famous combination first came to Carnegie, a little over a year ago, they have given the Plaid an entirely new system of coaching, which although it has not had such startling results as yet, gives promise of big things for future football teams. The Harpster Lovewell combine has been together, off and on. for almost ten years. A few seasons back, both were students at Carnegie, and were members of the Plaid squad. Love-well played on the line of that great team, under the direction of Harpster at quarter-hack, which smashed the Xotre Dame machine. Harpster first came into the coaching ranks when he accepted a position as football coach at Shadyside Academy. Then, with a very successful record in prep school circles, he went to Geneva, where he and Lovewell were once more united. It was while they were at the Heaver school, that Geneva begun to be really recognized in football circles, so upon the resignation of Boh Waddell as coach at Carnegie, it was only natural that they should he selected to fill the position. Their first season was a successful one, and was distinguished by surprising defeats of Pop” arner’s first Temple team, and the powerful Notre Dame eleven. The 1934 squad did not fare as well as its immediate predecessors, although it did win over Duquesne and the old jinx, N. Y. U. With a true determination to produce an outstanding eleven for 1935, they have put the boys through a very extensive spring practice, with the assistance for the spring session, of Joe Bach, former coach of the Dukes, and next season should he a real expression of their ability as coaches. 161 Thurman Croft This year's Tartans were led by Co-Captains Lihbus Lewis and Thurman Croft. Lib Lewis is one of the best ends ever to play under the Plaid banner. itb many setbacks and handicaps, he has managed to overcome bis difficulties and make for bimsclf an enviable reputation. The bad break of bis gridiron career came during bis sophomore year, when lie fractured his leg in the game with Notre Dame. 'Ibis injury was responsible for bis spending a year in a hospital bed.

The Plaid warriors battled though a tough schedule, and came out in the final reckoning with a total of four wins and five defeats. When the final count was taken, the Tartans had scored 35 points as compared to 106 piled up by their opponents. The playing of the team was very inconsistent; at times the Scots looked almost like championship material, and at other times, they distinctly resembled an outfit of school boys. The first encounter of the season was with Geneva College. Playing on a very muddy field at Heaver Falls, the Tartans made only a fair showing against tin Covenanters. Mthough tbe Geneva outfit was not considered as being very strong, they had not much trouble in holding the Plaid down to one touchdown. With tbe exception of a 67-yard run by Terebus, in tbe first part of the second quarter, the game was unusually slow and uninteresting. The run by Terebus resulted in Carnegie’s only score. In the next encounter of the season, tin Scots had perceptibly improved. Meeting Miami University for the first time on a Carnegie schedule, the Tartans handed the visitors a 13-7 defeat. However, it looked as if the boys from Oxford were not going to accept a loss. The Plaid machine started out in great shape, and it looked as if everything was going to be to the liking of the Carnegie fans. During the first quarter, Terebus carried the ball over for the first tally, and shortly after the beginning of the next chapter, the old pigskin was driven over once more. From then on, however, tbe Miami outfit decided to take things into their own hands, and it was only with luck that they were held down to one score. Had breaks were responsible for the first defeat of the season which came when the Tartans visited Michigan State at Lansing. The Scots were on the defensive most of the time but they showed unusual strength in holding the Spartans to two touchdowns. The Michigan team was undoubtedly vastly superior, for ★ ★ ★ 167 N. Y. V. they were considered to he one of the strongest teams in the country this last fall. One of the features of the game was the punting by Joe Mihm. which was directly responsible for helping to keep the score low. The old element of revenge entered into the next encounter on the Plaid schedule. After the stinging defeat which they were given by their old jinx, Harpster's first Carnegie team, the Irish were waiting with open arms and a deadly glint in their eyes. The Notre Dame outfit failed to he impressive, but they avenged the previous defeat, nevertheless. The lack of an adequate supply of reserves was one thing which helped tear down the Tartan defense and leave them wide open for numberless Irish, file Scotch seemed to play without any fire, and were consequently a rather easy mark for a mediocre Irish team. Homecoming was featured by the second annual meeting with Purdue. In alternating blasts of wind and rain, the Tartans received their second successive defeat from the Boiler ★ makers. The Lafayette team came to Pittsburgh with a favorable record, and a loss was more or less expected by the Carnegie fans. During the first half of the game, however, it looked as if the game might end in a scoreless tie, for at the end of that half both teams had failed to score. Holding the Boilermakers down proved to be too much of a strain on the Scots, and during the second half they were backed up for two tallies. The next game on the schedule brought a surprise. For the first time in eight years a Carnegie team beat the V V. U. representatives. In winning over the Violets by the low but sufficient score of 6-0, the Tartans demonstrated more power than they had previously shown all season. The N. Y. IJ. outfit threatened the Plaid goal three times, but each time a score was averted by such breaks as fumbles and intercepted passes. Disaster rode along with the oncc-more present spirit of revenge when the Tartans went to ★ ★ ★ 168 Philly to meet Pop Warner’s Owls. Ready to make a determined attempt to wipe out the memory of the 25-0 defeat which they suffered at the hands of the Plaid last year, and to gain their first victory over Carnegie, the Temple team was armed to the teeth, and raring to go. They did go. Right over the heads of the weakened Tartans to the tune of 34-6. Coming hack to Pittsburgh for their next battle, the Tartans surprised everybody, including their most loyal supporters and themselves by beating the much-heralded Duke machine, 3-0. Decidedly the underdog in this match, the Scots were not given a ten-to-one chance to win, but every worm is hound to turn someday, and this one turned at the expense of the Bluffites. The Duquesne team was decisively outplayed, but it was only a brilliant field goal on the part of Joe Milun, which saved the day for the Plaid and put Joe’s name down forever in Carnegie gridiron history. The season ended in a distinct fizzle the next week when the Panthers romped about the ★ field, piling up a 20-0 score. However, the highly-rated Pitt team was certainly not up to standard, and without the assistance given by Tartan fumbles, would have scored only once. The Scots played fairly well, hut without much lire. The following men played the required number of quarters on the 1031 Varsity football team, and were awarded the Varsity Major ’C“: Lewis, Croft. Kelly, Burns. Milun. Give-zewski. Doloway, Goodridge, Trbovich, Lehman, Vorderburg, Patt. Carlson, Tercbus, W. Spisak. Henrion, and Becker and Robinson. Managers.

I nder the guidance of Jerry O’Toole and Henry Dreshar, the freshmen experienced a period of preparation for future varsity play rather than for making any attempt at prominence in freshman football circles. Only three schools were met by the Plebes. The first of these was their old, traditional rival, Kiski. In this battle the Tartan youngsters showed up very well, and took over the prep school team hv an 18-0 score. Passes to Dwaresky and Rosenthal, and a long run by Matelan. were responsible for the scores. In their next attempt the Plebes ran up against a much bigger, heavier eleven. Rad breaks on the part of the Tartans and excellent playing on the part of their opponents gave the victory to the Panther Cubs. The young Yellow Cals scored early in the game, after Rosenthal fumbled, and again late in the fray, after a ★ ★ ★ long drive from their own thirty. Fryer was outstanding for the Plebes, and was responsible for their only serious threat at scoring. The last game on their schedule was the worst for the Plebes. Going down to Morgantown, the Freshmen were badly squelched by an exceptionally strong eleven representing the Mountaineer Freshman squad. Due to a very smooth attack and a wealth of reserve material. the West Virginia boys were able to hand the Plebes a 26-0 defeat. file following members of the Freshman Football squad, having played in the required number of quarters, were awarded their Freshman numerals: Miskevics, Slaminko, Yeknicb, Kopcsak, Sutherland. Dwaresky, Matelan, Gartz. DiDominico, Keller. Fryer. Napotnick, Gradd. Rosenthal. The record of the season: ★ Plebes 18 Kiski- 0 Plebes 0 Pill Frosli—12 Plebes— 0 V. Va. Frosli—26 Skibo Cagers BASKETBALL The Tartan floor squad had a season which was a success and yet not a success. The Plaid cagers acquitted themselves nobly against some of the strongest competition in this section of the country, although they did not pile up a brilliant collection of victories. The whole season seemed to he one of those cases of so near and yet so far. The reason for this half-success was the fact that the Scots came closer to winning more games, and yet not quite winning them, than any other team has done for quite some time. The first game in this win-or-Iose-in-the-last-minute series was with the ace outfit from Westminster. Generally not conceded the chance of the proverbial ghost in this encounter the Tartans ended up at the final gun only three points behind, the final tally being 33-30. This game was followed by another hreathtaker—this time with W est Virginia. Once again the Plaid lost in the last few seconds, to the tune of 37 34. The prize of the season came when the Pitt Panthers took away the victory in the last second by leaping ahead one point as the timekeeper fired the fatal shot. Score: 38-37. flic rousing start did not hold good, however, for the next four games resulted in a total of four losses. Things seemed to he going in streaks the whole season, for from then on the wins and losses alternated in small groups.

The Plaid outfit was well rounded out ami equally balanced in strength in all the positions on the team. With a large group of players, all equal to any situation, it was possible to produce a team which could he hacked up by substitutes as strong as those players starting the game. I nder the able tutelage of Coach Max Han-nuni, the Scottish hasketeers developed into a team of which Carnegie fans could well be proud. By putting up sonic mighty fine opposition and lots of fighting spirit, the Tartans gained a reputation for themselves and drew the largest crowds which have turned out to watch them on their home floor in many a year. The squad this year was composed mostly of the recruits from last year's Plebc squad. Captain Ted Rigg. Johnny Ewalt, Macalka. Spisak. and Cox represented the upper classes on the squad. The yearlings were James, Fit .-wilson, Kritscher, Shomo, Patt, and Fclscr. Captain Ted Rigg was outstanding as one of the most brilliant players in this district. As a guard he was rated by coaches of opposing teams as one of the best players their men had been up against this season. In most of the games this year he was high scorer for the Tartans and of the whole game. Other stars also shone brightly in the Plaid firmament. Maurice Patt, cx-plebe star and versatile football player, was one of the high scorers of the team, running a close second to Capt. Rigg. At center. James and Fitzwilson were interchangeable. Father one or the other was ready to take the toss equally well, and this arrangement meant a lot toward the strengthening of the team. At the forward positions, Joe Macalka and Charley Spisak were in the same circumstances. Both distinguished themselves, and with the further support of Ewalt, Fclscr, Shomo, Kritscher, and Cox, they constituted the remainder of a great squad. At the conclusion of the season Macalka was honored by his teammates who selected him to be the captain of the 1935 36 cage squad. 172 Although the record of the Plebes did not come up to that of the Youngsters last year, they had a fairly good season and showed promise of being a source of some good material for the varsity of 1935-36. Jerry O’Toole, one of the coaches of the Plebe football squad, was the mentor of the embryonic cagers. Despite the fact that he did not have such a large group of candidates from which to draw his team, he managed to build up a fast passing, alert outfit. petition of exactly the same calibre as their own. for the game ended in a tie. “Buzzie” Greenberg, diminutive forward, was the outstanding player of the outfit, and should prove to he a very valuable addition to the Varsity next season. Numeral men: Miller, Rosenthal, Slaminko, Miskevics, Greenberg, Dwaresky, Klliott, and Robinson, Manager. The record of the season: Due to their advantage in experience the Plebes were able to overcome all their rivals from the fields of scholastic competition, hut were unsuccessful against most of the collegiate opposition. Freshman teams from Pitt, Duquesne, Penn State, and W. J. proved to be too much for the Tartan Plebes, and all the games in the series went to the opponents.

Under the experienced tutelage of Coach Guy Hal-ferty, the cinder athletes developed into a fairly efficient squad. Starting off the season with the annual practice meet with the P. A. A., the Tartans ran up against some real competition. The veterans from the P. A. A. proved to be too much for the Halferty proteges, and the meet was lost. In the first intercollegiate competition, the Scottish tracksters were neatly taken over by an outfit at Western Reserve. Against Geneva, the track and field athletes experienced the worst defeat of the season. After the meet with Geneva, the Tartans came into their prime and won their two remaining encounters. The W. J. Proxies were found to be an inferior outfit, for the Plaid won by the score of 94 2 3 to 39 1 3. Against Grove City, the score was much closer, but it was a victory. The Plebes enjoyed a very successful season, for they came through without a single defeat. Against such competition as was offered by Sclienley. Union Turtle Creek, Peabody, and Kiski, they managed to give a very good account of themselves, and came through their schedule completely unscathed. l.etier men: S. Allan, W. Allen. Brown. Crist.

They are tennis, crosscountry, boxing and wrestling. Although these sports are not gone in for as heavily as some of tiie others, they are nevertheless important. Cross-country enjoyed a rather poor season. The Tartan harriers lost to both Westminster and Pitt, the only schools met last fall. However, they did place second in the A.A.U. Championships. The Plebes lost to the Panther Cubs and to Peabody, but placed first in a triangular meet with Allderdice and Schenley. As a result of lack of interest and poor show ings, cross-country has been dropped from next year's program. The 1931 tennis squad had a rather unsuccessful season, both in varsity and in plebe com- petition. In both divisions, the Plaid representatives won only one each of their scheduled matches. In the old square ring, the Tartan squad was once more active in collegiate circles. Last year, no meets were scheduled, but litis season several schools were met. One of the features of the boxing program was the squad elimination bout, and another was the Intercollegiate battle in which Gapt. Hill Kulcsz was crowned champion in the loo-lb. class. Wrestling at the present time is nut a recognized sport, but this docs not deter the boys interested in litis sport in their desire to build up an efficient squad of grapplers. Regular practice sessions, with aide coaching, were held throughout the winter months. 176 Golf is a recent venture into the held of sports at Carnegie. Four or five years ago a small group of students who were addicts to the game decided that the school should have a golf team. The first season was a success, so they tried again tin next. This time a number of candidates answered the call. The Athletic Vssociation. seeing such a show of spirit, decided that they would give golf a recognized standing as a minor sport. Last year eighteen men turned out for the team. There were five letter men hack from the preceding year, and a number of new men who showed much promise. The first match was with Pitt. The results of this meeting showed how heavily rain and snow had hampered the practice of the team at tin beginning of the season. However, Carnegie had the satisfaction of defeating l)u-quesne in tin next match with a score of 6 to 0. fter losing another contest to Pitt, the squad journeyed to Cleveland to play Western Re- serve at the Oakwood Country Club. There again another defeat was encountered to put the total at three losses in four starts. Washington and Jefferson was met at the Pittsburgh Field Club, and the fourth mark on the debit side of Carnegie’s ledger was added. The only bright spot of the day was 1 Burgoy lie’s win over Miller of W. J. It seems that Duquesne was tin only team that Carnegie was able either to beat or hold its own with, because tin second meeting of the teams ended in a 1 Vi to 11 £ deadlock. Western Reserve and ashington and Jefferson were met in the order named, and resulted in a loss and a tie to finish out the season.

The varsity engaged in eight dual meets during the season, the greatest number ever scheduled in the history of the team. This year’s team was composed of two seniors, eight juniors, and one sophomore. The short dashes were well taken care of by von der Lancken, Holliday, Derdeyn, Leavitt, and Hammerschmidt. The 100-yard relay team was composed of Holliday, Derdeyn, Leavitt, and von der Lancken. In the meet with Pitt, this combination covered the above distance in the fastest time that any Carnegie team has ever recorded. Charles and Holliday gave good accounts of themselves in the middle distances, while Dennison ami Leavitt helped out with an occasional third place. Captain von der Lancken, along with Dennison and Culler, made a formidable trio in the breast-stroke. ★ Three men swam the back-stroke for Carnegie. Holliday, one of these three, could always be counted on for a first or second place in any meet, and Bou telle and Hammerschmidt were strong contenders for the other points. Credit should also be given to the divers, Bright and Heatley, who turned in finished performances in all meets. The high point men of the team are as follows: Holliday 58. von der Lancken 35, Derdeyn .39.

The only loss encountered in the entire live meets was at the hands of the I'itt freshmen. These meets were with High Schools who were noted for putting out strong swimming squads, and for tliis very fact they showed Coach Rcisdorf that he could expect some excellent material for the varsity next year. All the meets were held in the Carnegie pool in conjunction with the varsity meets. Three men in particular were outstanding. Froelich was high point man with 58 points. Pendelton was second with 39 points, and Zeigler third with 35 points. These three men especially will he an addition to the varsity next season. Froelich will he able to holster up the sprint men who will he handicapped by the loss of Derdeyn and von der Laneken. Froelich is a dash man and also a breast-stroker of some ability. Zeigler will also he on hand to help out in both hack-stroke and free style. Caldwell and Kura took care of the diving for the Freshmen, Caldwell especially doing a fine job of it. He will, without a doubt, give Bright and Heatley some stiff competition for varsity berths. Kura is coming along very fast, hut it will take some time for him to polish up his form to where he may he counted upon for those extra points. There was no dearth of frce-stylers among the members of the squad with Hughes, McGuire, Zeigler, Pendelton, Salzer, Froelich, Kura, and Torturelle all out for that particular division. In the hack-stroke Zeigler had the entire field to himself. Patterson and Pendelton swam breast-stroke, counting for points in every meet. Wither and Byrne were also among the divers, but competed in only one meet apiece. The results from the freshman swimming schedule for the past year were as follows: Jan. 18 Carnegie F. 25 Pitt Freshmen . 34 Feb. 9 Carnegie F. 45 Schenley High . 30 Feb. 15 Carnegie F. 48 Taylor- A llderdice 27 Feh. 16 Carnegie F. 46 Langley High 29 Mar. 1 Carnegie F. 39 Clairton High . 27 179 Sergeant Sommer was again successful in producing a team of championship calibre with which to defend the high ranking position of the Tartans in the rifle world. In a shoulder to shoulder match at the Carnegie range, the Skihos placed second to the United States Marine Corps of Philadelphia. The Tartans are the defending champions in the National R.O.T.C. Engineer Corps Match and will make a determined effort to repeat. Although the season has not been completed, the marksmen have piled up a total of fifty wins against ten losses. Among this impressive record are included three victories out of four matches with the University of Pittsburgh which is quite an accomplishment in itself, although to the Tartan sharpshooters this is not unusual for they have beaten Pitt consistently. Carnegie won the Allegheny Intercollegiate I-eague title for the second successive year. In the Men’s Individual National Intercollegiate Championship Carnegie’s lone entry, Al ★ ★ Broadhead, placed third.

W e may also he mighty proud of the freshmen women’s team which recorded nine victories and only one defeat. Maude Bowers was the winner of the freshmen women’s tyro cup.

FEATURE Margaret Schultz, the first Thistle Queen to reign over the pages of the Carnegie yearbook, was chosen as the most beautiful junior girl in school. She was selected by F. Sands Brunner, artist and illustrator for Curtis Publishing Company. as the loveliest girl in her class. Peggy. as she is known to us. naturally fits the part she must play, for she is the typically charming co-ed. Viva la Reine! 185 Beauty, poise, and sincere friendliness arc the qualities which make Madolin Vautrinot the ideal campus queen for 1935. This high honor is gladly accorded to Miss Vautrinot as the culmination of a college career in which she worked and played with equal success. Madolin recently won first prize in the exhibition of Associated Artists. Winning this prize is the beginning of an artist’s career, the success of which we have no doubt will he as great as her success in school. 186 The coronation of the campus queen was held on the lawn of the College of Fine Arts in the Sylvan Theater, which made a beautiful natural setting for the pastel costuming of the court. The ceremony itself was copied after an authentic Scottish Highland Coronation in accordance with the Scottish traditions of the school. Roy Minet 3. , of the Department of Drama, wrote and directed the ceremony, which was an innovation for the annual coronation. Featured in the ceremony, which was composed of several parts, were the responses made by the audience. Following the Scottish tradition (he audience took a form of oath of allegiance to the queen. A chorus of music students opened the program with a May car-id as the procession approached the stage and also led the audience in the singing of the Alma Mater as the queen and her court filed out to the Coronation hall. Those of the audience going to th ‘ ball joined the procession from the Theater to Thistle Hall. Resides the queen and her court, there were included in the ceremony several other characters—an archbishop, marshals, trumpeters, and pages. These parts were played by members of the Departments of Drama and Music, including Jane Witmer ’36, Tod Egli 37, Mary Riggert 39. Theresa Vetter 38. Carl Dozer ‘36 and Ralph Nason 37. Mr. Minet was asked to write the ceremony by Rosemarie Grcntzner, chairman of the committee in charge of the coronation. The committee decided this year to plan a ceremony that would he used permanently and become part of the Carnegie tradition. The cermony was planned as a formal rite which took the form of an opening and dedication for all of the Spring Carnival celebration which followed. ★ ★ Jui.i� : llimtuiiii, Agnes Cancei.iehe.

Were it not for their reclining positions, they would be a reminder of the Indian war dances. s for the lailv (?) in the uncertain position, the song “Stand up, stand up,” seems quite appropriate. However, it seems as if she is stuck, so we will have to give her credit for touching her toes, and, incidentally, for posing for the cameraman. Incidentally, the Tartan is rated as one of the best college newspapers in the I nited States. t the last meeting of the National Scholastic Press Association it received the Ml merican Superior Rating. Congratulations, members of the staff! file boys look as if they were in the dark. Indeed they are. Many late hours are spent down in the office on Friday nights getting the next issue ready for the press. The girls seem to be somewhat mystified. I wonder if they know what is going to happen to them. The Cwens are pretty hard overseers. Rut the newcomers are able to look forward to tbe day when they will be doing the overseeing. 188 The rls Ball for 1935 held in accordance with an old custom of the College ol Fine Arts, enjoyed a success that really went far beyond the wildest dreams of its creators—and it might he added, those dreams were wild. Under the general chairman, James H. Me Naughton. whose ability as an executive certainly can never he easily surpassed, a well chosen group of committees worked diligently and cITiciently towards tin definite goal of making the Arts Hall for 1935 the best. Mr. Mc-Na ugh ton’s to-be-praised efforts were anything hut fruitless. Between administration. Student Council, and the chairman an unusual harmony prevailed. The cooperation and assistance of both the administration and Student Council was undoubtedly the best reason for the results achieved. Decorations and costumes were without precedent in beauty of design and color. Pat Crocker, design chairman, cannot he too highly commended for his good work. The style of the decorations was historically Arabian. but it would certainly be an injustice to the effect to class it with any period or people. ith all respect to the imagination of the design chairman and committee, the resultant effect must have been partly accidental. Nothing like it could have been grasped by any imagination. 189 I'urkans. pantaloons, beautiful bronzed and veiled ladies escorted by jewelled and swarded sliieks and sultans, authentic costumes, lace curtains, turkisb towels and Woolworth’s most expensive jewelry—all moving and sparkling through what was once a wall cloaked in classic Greek, hut which had been transformed into a moonlit and Oriental garden. A mixed array of Oriental flowers and incense seemed to hang on every drape. An Arabian market scene, an Arabian street scene, awninged sidewalks, tables, chairs, cushions. rugs, Oriental food, music, dancing girls and boys, Janet Patrick and her pansies—a job well done! The Brown House has obligingly furnished the students with a Grid Graff, so that the left-at-homes may trace the travels of the pig-skin. hat could be more refreshing between halves than cider and doughnuts? W ell, little freshie in the background, since you found your way to the rear of the Brown House, I suppose the upper classmen will let you have some cider. No more than one glass! Out for an outing at Cook’s Forest. Needless to say, the Y. M. C. A. hoys enjoy this recreation to the utmost. This particular outing includes all kinds of Monkey Business—the tree bears witness! Arms on the railing, boys, and pose pretty for the little birdie! 190 Between the halves—Hot Dogs!—Pop!—ami the Kiltie Band on the field! We are certainly proud of the inanouvers our hoys go through. Yes, heckler, even when they form a P for Pitt. It is just professional courtesy to give the other boys a break, thus the picture showing the Pitt band on the field, plus, of course, a view of the college football fans. A perfect setting for the passing of the campus Belle! Place: the lawn of the Fine Arts College, in full view of all doors and windows in Margaret Morrison Carnegie College. Time: Any hour in the day when you have no classes to attend, or when you do have classes to attend. Watch out, mister, or you’ll get a bad ease of sprained neck. An intimate glimpse of one of the really beautiful settings on Carnegie Campus. The College of Fine Arts lends an air of distinction to the sylvan beauty of this scene. The aim of every Skibo plebe Is to sport an activities key— And to have a Drag-oil campus A Dragon you must be. In the picture, you see six examples of your suppressed desires. A blink at the boys in the best of the better bands. Yes sir. it is the mosta of the besta. No doubt, the boys in tlieir scotch attire—kilts, spats, and blankets—present at least one good excuse for attending the football games. Here 191 we see them pleasantly diverting the attention of the Maggie Murpli girls from their classes. In another view, they are seen in a more serious frame of mind during dress rehearsal. In the spring a young man’s fancy turns to the outdoor gym classes. A good look at the picture shows that the players do find at least one class where they use their heads. A larger camera would have been able to show the admiring (?) female spectators who are present at every session. Here is one of the most impressive ceremonies ever held on campus; the presentation of the Hearst marksmanship trophy to the winning team made up of men from the Carnegie R. O. T. C. It is easy to sec, by the expressions on the men’s faces, that they arc justly proud of the honor being conferred upon them. Look out men! Carnegie Tech archers never miss their mark, and they are sure to get you, if you don’t watch out. Of course, the target is not in view, but there are probably a few Dragons, Delta Skulls, and Scimitars in the line of fire. The title is Carnival Day. and this scene is laid in the Carnegie Bowl. We have no idea where the strollers are strolling to. but perhaps if we follow the couple in front, we will be enlightened. Aha! To the Chamhrc D'Torreurs. Remember? 192 We caught you this time! Of course, we really can’t hlame you, because if we had nothing else to do, we would loaf too. We agree that the Y. M. C. A. retreat at Cook’s forest is a perfect setting for a lazy day, and l)r. Jones, looking at the sky. Professor Robert Lcighou, and Director Jewett certainly bear out our suppositions. This is a very informal picture, and our members of the faculty here represented will certainly have a pleasant memory of Carnegie if they keep only this snapshot as a reminder. The picture shows an old STAND-by of Carnival Week. Get it? When asked for a statement, the winnnh replied. ”1 was hard PI SHKI) to win. Oh, for the life of a college hero! Tell me pal. how does it feel to he stopped on the campus and be proposed to by such a charming lass. What? Don’t tell me it is all a joke. Shucks. I guess I II he a bachelor. I'he results of four years of engineering knowledge are shown in the stream-lined creations in the picture. The pushmohiles- not the pushers. This is one of the many rush talks given to the freshmen who are told that tin fraternities will push them forward on the campus. Those little white lines on the street are always a sign of the eagerly awaited Carnival week. ★ ★ 193 t Tramp, tramp, tramp, the plcbes are marching! Of course the ferocious Scimitar taskmaster is only doing his duty, but he could at least permit the poor innocents to button their coats correctly, even if they must go barefooted. Please!

Of course, if you must do a Romeo and Juliet and kiss the fair lady’s hand, we suggest that you find a less conspicuous place than Margaret Morrison building to prove your fidelity. The band—at one of their shady practices! Once a year there is a revival of Shakespeare by the Department of Drama. These perform- ances are directed by B. Idcn Payne who directs the Memorial Theatre at Stratford-on-Avon in England. Above is a picture of a scene in Shakespeare’s 'Troilus and Cressida” produced by the Department of Drama. It opened on December 5, 1934, and had a run of twelve performances. Usually these productions are given in April, around the time of the author’s birthday, but this year the date was set back to enable Mr. Payne to return to Kngland to assume direction at the Memorial Theater. Reports in the press and magazines indicate that at the Century of Progress the Elizabethan style of staging Shakespeare was a discovery to the visitors. Yet Pittsburghers enjoyed the pleasure of recognizing that the whole idea came from the Little Theatre at Carnegie. 194 Troilus and Cressida” brought tlie total number of Shakespeare revivals in the Little Theatre to twenty-four. Ever since April, 1914, a Shakespearean play has been presented on Shakespeare’s birthday. The ballet, “Persephone,” a graceful and easy dance, was presented at the theatre of Irene Kaufinann Settlement for the benefit of the omen’s Scholarship Organization. The beautiful and inspiring music was created by Earl Wilde and George Youngling. The orchestrations were created by Chauncey Kelley. Miss Cecil Kitkat. a member of the faculty, composed and directed the choreography. James McNaughton was the able production manager. The attractive stage settings were due to his efforts. ★ “Persephone” proper is a dance drama. The myth of Persephone reflects an allegorical interpretation of the death and resurrection of nature. The first scene takes place in the fields of Lima. Here Persephone, daughter of Demeter. goddess of the Fruitful Earth, is lured away and abducted from her nymph companions by the irresistible and mysterious force represented by Hades. Demeter, led to the scene of the tragedy, curses the earth and all upon it. The second scene is in the underworld. Persephone, an unwilling visitor, is inconsolable. Suddenly, Hermes, by order of the gods, descends to the underworld and triumphantly leads Persephone up towards the earth. The third scene is hack in the fields of Enna. Here Demeter still mourning the loss of Persephone, becomes aware of the awakening of the earth. She looks for the cause and perceives the restoration of her daughter. ★ ★ ★ 195 Freshman All -Carnegie COMMITTEE: Uorert S. Zeiiim n. Louise Pace. Hammond Zeici.ek. Fleanor I.owkey. I.vhv Hoaver.

The dance represented the freshmen’s first social activity as a cooperating unit, arrangements being under the direction of Robert A. Zeid-tiian. chairman, and Louise Pace, co-chairman. The posters and advertisements were very well taken care of by Paul Karlen. Charles McWilliams, and Florence Ingbram, for the dance was a grand success having the largest attendance of any Freshman All-Carnegie to this time. dvertising posters were placed at many conspicuous places about the campus. Raymond Zeigler was chairman of the ticket committee. The popular eleven-piece orchestra of Dick Gaertner supplied smooth, flowing rhythm for this, the premier social event of the freshman class. Dick Gaertner’s hand is well known on the campus having played here for the Intersorority Formal, the Penn State-Carnegie basketball dance and the Georgetown-Tech Football dance last year. Me is quite popular in this city. Thistle Hail huhhied with the noise of happy, exuberant conversation and laughter.

On Mart’ll first, the Grand Ballroom of the illiam Penn Hotel was the setting for the annual Interfratcrnity Ball, one of the most important events of the social season. l nine o'clock four hundred Carnegie Greeks and their charming lassies waltzed away to the strains of Jack Miles and his famous hand. Suh-zoro weather and a screen of frost on the window panes served only as an inspiration to the brilliant orchestra which had come from tin l.otus Gardens in Cleveland. Gorgeous banners of the twenty Carnegie fraternities hung from the balcony beneath a Hood of colored lights. The crystal chandeliers sent off a rainbow of colored beams to every corner of the vast room. Pour hundred glamorous formals accompanied by luxes and tails” added to the brilliance of the scene which will long he remembered. At the entrance to the ballroom, many ex- ★ clamations of feminine glee were heard upon the appearance of the dance favors. These were charming cigarette cases made of white calf-skin with the interfraternitv seal on the center of the flap. Inside the case were found the dance programs. This was a novel innovation to Carnegie dance favors and programs and was met with enthusiasm. The climax of the evening came with the Grand March planned and directed by Eugene Treasure and Roger E. Burke, who, with Frederick R. McKclvoy, formed the committee. The marching column organized at the foyer and marched into the grand Ballroom to the strains of an arousing march. The procession was led by Frederick R. McKelvev and Martha Pearce of the University of Pittsburgh. After winding around the Ballroom a few times, the marchers came down the floor in four columns until the stage was reached. The procession came to a grand finale by the raising of voices to the tune of Dear Old Tech”, after which dancing was resumed. ★ ★ 199 Inter sorority Formal M'Hu: MontK. Chairman. Oi.m Rohi.ht .

The sororities of Margaret Morrison and the College of Fine Arts celebrated the birthday of the ’’Father of Our Country’ by ludding the Intersorority Formal on February 21 at the Pittsburgh Country Club. The recent recognition of the three Margaret Morrison sororities made possible their participation in this extremely successful event. It was open only to members of the sororities of both schools. The excellent music of Pat Nataro and his twelve midshipmen introduced a new orchestra to the Carnegie students. Although the band has been heard at many Pittsburgh collegiate affairs, he had never before played on the Carnegie campus. Aside from his engagements at Pitt. Dtiquesne ami P. C. V.. he has also played at Penn State and Morgantown house parties, and at the Pines for several months. His success at creating smooth rhythm has been proven by the fact that lie has appeared on the campus at subsequent dances. The decorations committee arranged the decorations and programs so that they carried out the patriot theme of red. white and blue, appropriate to the celebration of George Wash- ington’s birthday. large American llag was hung behind the orchestra stand while smaller flags were draped around the room. Later in the evening, a delightful spirit was added when red and white balloons were distributed among the dancers. There were very few, however, who succeeded in protecting their balloons against the siege of the balloon-breakers. The programs for the dance were distinctive in printing and general form in carrying out the patriotic theme. Rich blue suede covered an inner sheet of bright red. A margin of the red. upon which the words ’’Intersorority Formal were printed vertically in white appeared at the side as a brilliant contrast to the blue. The effect was that of an extremely striking ami modern design. The names of the chaperons, patrons and committee members appeared on the back of the programs. The chaperons included the faculty advisers of all the sororities. They were: Mr. ami Mrs. Vincent Parish Mr. ami Mrs. Wilfred Readio. Mr. and Mrs C. T. Rlackmore. Mr. and Mrs. R. C.

The Military Ball, one of the outstanding social events of the year for color, spirit, and plain entertainment, was held on November 9, 193 I at Thistle Hall. The music was supplied by Maurice Spitalny and his fourteen-piece orchestra, and delightful music it was. The dance floor was appropriately decorated with military ornaments. The bandstand was topped by a large lighted replica of the Scabbard and Blade badge, and on each side of the stand were two corps insignias, one of the Signal Corps and one of the Kngineer Corps of the Carnegie regiment. To give a further military atmosphere, names intimately connected with army life were used to designate portions of the hall. The ticket takers worked in a booth labeled Finance Officers, a sign over the lobby was captioned Officers’ Club, and the checkroom bore the legend. Quartermaster's Department. Refreshments were served during the dance in the outer lobby. Promptly at midnight, dancing was interrupted and the grand march and its accompanying ceremony were held. The Honorary Cadet officers, with corresponding officers of the regi- ment as escorts, moved forward to receive their commissions. These were Veronica Kloos and Robert B.

The annual Sophomore Hop, outstanding Sophomore social event of the first semester, was held at Thistle Hall, Friday evening, January 11, 1935. Paul Specht's internationally famous orchestra played the program of dances from nine to one o’clock. Marie Dupri, renowned soloist, was featured throughout the evening and an enthusiastic crowd was amply entertained by one of the two orchestra leaders of America’s “Who’s Who in Music.” Committees were made up of members of Scimitar, men’s Sophomore honorary, and Cwens, women’s Sophomore honorary society. Leslie C. Shomo of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity was chairman of the ’35 Sophomore Hop. John W. Weinberg was chairman of the decorations which were carried out in modernistic combinations of black and silver. Programs which were presented at the door were additional accessories of the designated color scheme. Other chairmen were George C. Slew-art who procured the orchestra; Margaret M. Fitzgerald in charge of the invitations: Barbara J. Yoakum, head of the ticket committee, and Simon M. Felser, publicity chairman. Every detail of the dance was carried out per fcctly by the chairmen and members of the various committees. Balloons ami favors added color and gaiety to this already festive Post-Christmas event.

Tlic second week-end in May each year brings to Carnegians two days and three nights of festivities—the Spring Carnival. Carnegie’s first Spring Carnival was instituted in May 1920 with the idea of stimulating alumni interests. Clean-Up day. School Exhibition night, a bonfire on the athletic field, fraternity “open house,” an open air play, a hand concert. a circus on the athletic field, and a dance in the foyer of the Fine Arts building were all a part of this celebration. In 1922 the circus was changed to a Campus eek show to he given on Saturday as a finale to the celebration. In 1923 the Queen of Campus W eek was introduced as a part of the program. She is selected from the girls of Margaret Morrison and the School of Fine Arts by popular student ballot. The sweepstakes as we know them today have never undergone any major changes since their beginning. 1 lie years 1927 and 1928 were nightmares in the life of the Campus Week celebration, for the alumni decided to delete it from the list of student activities and to run it exclusively for themselves. The Student Council rising to the defense of the students declared its open opposition to their proposal. Because of this there was no Campus Week in 1928. Campus Queen and regalia were elected as usual to reign for only two hours during the Call day program. It was not until 1930 that another real Spring festival was held, at which time the students flooded to the polls to pledge their allegiance to the continuation of this grand affair. It was at this time that the name of the celebration was officially changed to “Spring Carnival. This year's Campus Queen.Madolin Yautrinot. was crowned at the royal ceremony during the Coronation Ball on Thursday night to reign until the end of festivities on Saturday night. Friday morning brought about the preliminary heats in the Sweepstakes. In the afternoon a spring football game was played, replacing the annual hey-day. In the evening a costume hall was held in the Gymnasium ami Thistle Hall. The sweepstakes finals were scheduled on Saturday morning, and in the afternoon the Call day ceremonies held sway. A production by the Bacchanalians was a grand climax to this merry three-day festival. 201 K.II I SCHOOL The students of the Might School of the Carnegie Institute of Technology take great pleasure in dedicating this section of the 1935 Thistle to their director, Dr. Roscoe M. Ilirig. It has been due to his untiring efforts as a great leader that the enrollment has been greatly increased, that the list of courses has been lengthened, and that the value of the school to the community has been greatly enhanced. The entire school wishes to express its appreciation for the fine work that has been started and carried out by Dr. Ilirig. 207 Joseph E. B i� Homestead. Pa. Electric Equip. Const r. John W. Bithei.

Joseph Tracht THE STUDENT COUNCIL As a result of the realization of the need for organized and efficient supervision of the necessary extra-curricular activity among the night students of Carnegie, the adoption of a constitution hy the night students, with the approval of the Executive Board of the Institute, officially established the Night Student Council during the school year of 1924-25. The Night Council is composed of thirteen representatives of the night student body; namely, a president, who is elected from the Council membership of the previous school year, and the four officers elected by each of the three colleges at the beginning of the school year. At the end of the first semester Mr. C. Block-inger found it necessary to resign from the office of president of the Council. Consequently, Mr. A. C. Grimm, who was then vice-president of the College of Engineering, was chosen to lake over the presidential duties. George McCormick was then selected by the Night Stu- dent Council to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Grimm. The Night Student Council has complete jurisdiction over all night student activities, night school organizations, and the disbursement of the Student Activities Fee fund. Through the assessment of the Activities Fee upon each student at enrollment, the Council is assured the necessary finances for the various social functions sponsored by each College and for the publication and distribution of the Handbook and the “Plaid” page of the weekly newspaper, the Tartan. In the interest of the night student body and to provide recreation to break the monotony of the night school curriculum. the Council sponsors four dances during the school year: the Thanksgiving Recess Dance, the Post-Holiday Dance, the Washington’s Birthday Dance, and the Night Inter-college Dance. These dances have become traditional and are held at convenient times each year. ★ ★ ★ 217 Since ils inception, the operation of the Night Student Council has been marked by efficiency, and the soundness of its policies has been proven beyond doubt. Past records of the activity and the duties executed by this governing body substantiate this claim, and from all indications. the future of the organization holds still greater promise of success. The Council meets on the first Sunday of each month for the transaction of incidental business and the consider- ation and solution of night student problems. Today, the Night Student Council of Carnegie is recognized as one of the best organized groups among night student bodies in any college. Credit for this distinction is due to the night students, who, by their wholehearted ami energetic cooperation, have made possible a rapid progress toward the full recognition of the governing body by the Institute.

By popular request, the Night College of Industries offer their three social events of the year in the form of a smoker and two dances. The purpose of the first affair is held for the election of officers to represent this group of students in Night Student Council for the new school year. In previous years, two smokers and a dance were offered the Industries students asa means of relaxation from their regular routine of studies, hut a few years ago members of this group of students demanded that another dance he substituted in place of a smoker. This change met with the approval of the throng and it has thus remained as an annual function. The initial event of the new social calendar for this college was the smoker held in the Carnegie Union on Saturday, October 20. 1934. An unusual program was offered, varying from the function of previous years. A large envelope containing clever souvenirs was distributed to each person as he entered the door. 'I'he entertainment included a vaudeville act from Station WXVSW; A1 Stevens, a rapid lire cartoonist; John Morrison, the Magician: and a moving picture, one of the “Our Gang” features. The musical accompaniment for the occasion was provided by the famous Kiltie Band in full regalia. I he second event on the Industries social calendar was a dance held in Thistle Hall on Saturday, January 26. The music was furnished by N ill Click and his orchestra, who previously had been engaged for a Council dance. Streamers consisting of green and white papier inache, hung in various sections of the dance floor, and a large sign, made by a graduate of this college, were featured in the decorations. fhe sign bearing a gear, a hammer, a saw. and a drawing square were inscribed with silver metallic. A large crystal ball revolved in the center of the floor and the reflection on the sign was a display of beauty. The final social event of the Night College of Industries was another dance held in Thistle Hall on March 16. Decorations were appropriate to St. Patrick’s Day for everything was decked in green. The Industries sign was displayed and green spotlights were focused on it. Green palms and ferns were found in each corner of the floor. Pep Houck and his orchestra furnished the rhythm for the occasion. 219 College of Engineering V i.T� :it Noicot. Treasurer: Wiu.ixm Vknseu President: kiiii k (Jkijim. Her-Prrsidenl; Kisnm.1. I. llR. Secretary. The enrollment of the Night College of Engineering in 1931-35 was increased considerably by the addition of a number of degree courses heretofore identified with other departments of the institute. These courses were added as special options in the department known as Commercial Engineering. The total enrol linen t for the year exceeded eight hundred and fifty students. This group, each year, elects four officers to handle the business of the college. These men. elected at the beginning of the school year, are the representatives of the College of Engineering in the Night Student Council. Because of his election to the presidency of the Council at the end of the first semester, Air. A. C. Grimm, formerly vice-president of the Engineering College, resigned this position to take over his new duties. Mr. George McCormick was then elected by the Night Student Council to fill the vacancy. The officers, and a social committee composed of eight members, must manage the three major social functions held each year. 'Flic first event was an election smoker held in October in tin I nion Hall. This party was quite a success in that the attendance overwhelmingly exceeded that expected by the committee in charge. Considerable enthusiasm was displayed over the election, and returns showed the officers to be elected by small majorities. In contrast with the smoker the next event was a Christmas Dance on December 15. Decorations were in keeping with the holiday spirit. The main event of the year, and that upon which much time and work was expended, was the Engineers banquet. This has become quite a traditional get-together, having been held annually for an uninterrupted period of twenty years. A new innovation occurred this year for a great many of the members of the faculty of the Night College of Engineering were present. The banquet was held at ebster Hall Hotel on April 6. both the Georgian Room and the Venetian Room being used. Guests included members of the Carnegie Administration and football Coach Howard Harpstcr. n unusual show in the Venetian Room concluded the evening. 220 College of Fine A rts J. Tracht.

Since 192. , when the Night Student Council was first organized, great strides have been taken to increase the social activities for the night students in the various night colleges at Carnegie. Night campus social functions have a valuable effect of enhancing student life at Carnegie, so it is only natural that the student body should direct a portion of its energies towards organizing a program to provide group entertainment for its members. In ten years, those men who were elected to guide the destiny of the Night Student Council increased the social activities from a few dances to the present calendar of fourteen varied functions. The night College of Fine rts carried on its activities b sponsoring three dances and a meeting for the election of officers during the term 1931-33. Because of the interest that the students take in the activities and the eagerness with which the Night Arts group anticipated them, these four events were assured success even before they were scheduled. election gave the rts student body four capable men who have since proved their ability both in the Night Student Council and for their college. O11 November 12. they held their first dance in Thistle Mali. The theme of the dance. “An Vrtist's Studio.“ was clearly shown by the novel decoration w ith color and the use of original drawings and paintings by night art students. capacity crowd danced to the enjoyable music of Freddie Herrick. Their third social function, a Valentine dance, was held on February 2. At this dance the decorations far excelled anything attempted before. Hundreds of hearts of different shapes, color, and size were hung from the ceiling. Aided by colored lighting effects, heart shadows were cast on the walls in an extremely attractive fashion. Hermic Kinner and his orchestra made his third appearance for a night Vrts Dance, by popular demand. Here again a capacity crowd enjoyed an evening of dance and fun. The first event on the Arts social calendar was the election of officers to represent the College of Fine Arts in the night Student Council. The 221 THE THISTLE John Schi kko Edmund Dki.sm.n The origination of representing night students of Carnegie Institute of Technology in the Thistle began in 1926. when with a wholehearted effort on the part of the Night Student Council it was decided to make the Thistle a complete college year book. A plan was endorsed which established a staff consisting of a Night Editor and Night Business Manager whose duty it is to co-operate with the Day Staff in compiling and distributing this college annual. These men are appointed by the President of the Night Student Council from members of its group. So that all valuable information may he gathered for this book, a staff was selected to aid these two men in compiling the data for publication. These members of the staff are representative of the three colleges. Each year a new vim is added to this project and it is encouraging to note the manner in which the night students respond. The present staff greatly appreciates the splendid response given by the 1935 graduates of the night school when the call for pictures was issued. It is also pleasing to note the great interest displayed by our students in the various night school matters which are sponsored in the interest of night school. We believe that each student would like to have a history and record of his work as well as his associates during the years on the campus. W e hope that this hook will serve to bring to your memory many happy nights of the past after you have left our institution. ★ ★ It. Kiok. J. Sciujrko. Editors; G. Smoltz. I). Jonks. E. IJhlnskn.

The first official publication for Night School was published during the school year of 1922-23, when it had been known as the “Skibo. This semi-monthly publication was published and edited by the school authorities and contained the frequent announcements that the faculty wished to make to the student body of Night School. This method was adopted to keep all students in closer relation with members of the faculty. After several months of discussion between representatives of the Administration, the Tartan, and the Night Student Council, it was decided that the Tartan and the Skiho be consolidated. This proved to be a step forward in student activities and lias brought a closer bond of association between the day and the night student groups. To distinguish the night page from the regular sections of the Tartan, the title. ‘'Plaid was selected in 1928 and this name has been carried to date by the night students. The Plaid Editor and News Editor in conjunc- tion with three representatives, one from each college, constitute the staff which edit page four of the Carnegie Tartan. This staff is aided materially by contributors of the three colleges who are all awarded points towards the obtaining of an insignia. This publication is now a weekly edition of the campus and is mailed to all registered night students of Carnegie Institute of Technology. In past years, the Plaid has served the night students in such reliable manner that it lias now become indispensable. Through its columns, the Night Student Council maintains a contact with the night student body, thus aiding materially in its work and enabling the Council to serve them better. There is no doubt but that this good work will continue in years to come. This year completes the seventh year of service to the night student body and it can readily be said that it has grown from a bumble beginning to an indispensable adjunct of the Night Student Council. 223 Scholarship Insignia Awards J. .

The success of all extra-curricular activities of the Night Student Council is in a large part due to the cooperation of the student workers of the three Night Colleges. This cooperation is recognized by the Night Student Council by means of an Insignia Award and by three Activities Scholastic Awards. The tradition of the Insignia Award was established in the term of 1924-25. This award of an Insignia is determined by use of a point system whereby a student is given proper credit for all work done either for his particular College functions, for Night Student Council functions, and for work on the publications of the Night School. If sufficient points are not earned in one year to obtain an Insignia, a percentage of those earned are carried forward as a credit the following year. The Award, for the first three years of a student’s participation. consists of a key. having upon it the official seal of the Night Student Council. All succeeding awards consist of an engraved activities certificate. Only students who have received an Insignia Award from Night Student Council, in recognition of their Campus activities, are eligible to hold a major office in the Night School. The Night Student Council Activities Scholastic Award was first given in the year 1925-26. Three awards are made each year by the Council—one to the College of Fine Arts, one to the College of Engineering, and one to the College of Industries. All awards arc made by means of a point system which places equal weight on scholastic standing and on participation in student activities. To he eligible a student must have carried at least six attendance hours a week, or its equivalent, and have made a passing grade in all subjects for both terms. He must also have earned a Night Student Council Insignia Award. The Activities Scholastic Award consists of thirty dollars which is equivalnent to the minimum tuition fee for night students. 224 The office of social chairman of the Night School is considered of great importance. Ilis duties are varied and upon liis efforts depends the success of the Night Student Council social calendar. To assist the social chairman, an assistant and a committee are appointed by the president of the Council. The assistant social chairman must he a member of Council and automatically becomes social chairman the following year. The social committee, which consists of eight members from each college, is also appointed by the president upon recommendation by individual college officers. Mach year the Night Student Council sponsors four dances as its share of the social calendar. Proceeds from these dances are used to help defray part of the operating expenses of the Night Student Council and to purchase insignia which are awarded for extra-curricular activities. Following the Christmas recess, the second Night Student Council dance was held. This dance which was called the Post-Holiday Dance is always well attended. The decorations were novel this year. Ferns and flowers completely surrounded W ill Click’s orchestra and were used to decorate the four corners of the hall. As the final event, the Night Student Council held the Night Inter-College Dance on May 5, alter night school final examinations were over. By popular demand ill Click, who previously played at the Post Holiday Dance, was engaged to furnish the music. 227 Social Committee Pit i Nu OFFICERS: R. W. Giiaham, Director; A. G. So.hnmdkk.

Phi Nu. a night school social fraternity, lias as its objectives the promotion of fellowship and sociability among llic night students, the encouragement of scholastic achievement, and the stimulation of interest in extra-curricular activities. It was established in 1916 to fill a need for some interest in the school other than that provided by studies, an interest that would aid students in the completion of a program of education that must necessarily extend over a long period of years. Its founders hoped that through the medium of social contact there might he developed to some extent, that feeling of good will and school spirit that is so essential to college campus life. As “Klanicht” this first night student organization was very active in encouraging extensions of the night school activities. In 1921 the name of the organization was changed to Phi Nu Fraternity, and under that name has continued to have an active part in the development of the night school social program, and in all movements that have been of interest or value to the student body. Its members were among the founders of the Night Student Council, they were leaders in the movement that led to the present method of financing the night student activities, and they sponsored the first night student assembly. By these and by many In addition to its active participation in campus activities. Phi u presents an extensive social program for its members. It also holds one dance in the Thistle Mall each year, a dance to which all night students are invited. The Fraternity has its own publication, a monthly paper called “Phi Nu News.” The paper and all of the social functions are designed to fill the particular needs of night school students. Phi N11 Fraternity selects its members from those upperclassmen of the three night colleges who have shown the most interest in activities, whose scholastic attainments are worthy of recognition and who have shown marked evidence of initiative and of the leadership qualities that arc expected of Phi Nu men. 228 LIGHTER NIGHTS ★ ★ ★ The secret is out! 11 tin officers wrote their own “blurbs” to go beside their pictures in that series “The Plaid” ran this year. For awhile it looked as if the publication of their pictures was turning the sheet into a dating bureau, what with the fan mail received and all! Great progress in educational methods was made. 'l ea parties were substituted for exams, the custom, strangely enough, becoming very popular with the students. The Industries School had a party, too. hut they didn’t serve tea. The Engineers’ banquet, which boasted a fan dancer, was the most widely publicized event, and actually lived up to its ballyhoo. The council room assumed more romantic possibilities since Cupid used it as headquarters for the big school romance of the year. However, the sofa in the council room still remains one of the most uncomfortable seating contrivances in the world. The parking question reared its ugly head again when some of the students were tagged for illegal parking. The Industries school sent their man into the pinochle tournament, and the excitement left us all breathless. The Engineering officers went to town one day to look for a banquet site and instead—went to town! The Arts School brought forth a Crooner, and a good one at that. The Phi Nil’s attended the Tech-Duke game and naturally helped celebrate the Tech victory at a banquet afterwards. Of course, tbcrc’s no overlooking the design class in the Arts School whose warbling and whistling made the evenings sweeter—to the design class! The Industries officers are still wondering what to do with the deluge of souvenirs they received for their smoker at the beginning of the year. The Night Student Council was 10 years old last February. Intoxicated by their coming of age, the boys celebrated by buying new cars. And then there’s the brunette co-ed who threw in this one: “I know gentlemen prefer blondes, but I never worry, my boy friend’s an engineer!” The engineers responsible for the blowing-out 229 of breakers in the future will be foiled, baffled, in fact, nonplussed, because now an automatic battery keeps tbe lights on notwithstanding. Flashbacks to tbe dances: Some of us never did decide whether to be a pre-dance fixer upper or a post-dance breaker downer. Tbe rts school bought new drapes to put up for their dance. The social chairman problem of designing a new dance program for each dance bad him cutting out paper dolls. Outstanding memory of tbe year: The night of W ashing-ton’s birthday dance, when tbe slush was knee deep and it was either sink or swim. More fun at tbe Nu Sigma Alpha barn dance, where tbe boys dressed up as farmers and tbe gals dressed like hicks. Among tbe most unique decorations schemes was one the industries schools put up, showing a huge wheel bung from tbe wall in back of the stage and depicting the various industries. The least enjoyable intermissions were tbe ones used to take pictures of tbe council, though everyone who wasn't in them. The Arts school gave their all to their last dance, going the limit by splurging on the programs, flowers, settings, n’ everything. The innovation of this year was the elevator dance—‘“not a step to it.” The boys in the wire room just can't believe that those little white animals commonly seen along the floor arc moths. Didja notice that this year for the first time we had official ballots to write on? Dealt! Dealt! W ere we ever ritzy, though. One of the instructors pulled a Groucho Marx gag when, after a lengthy discourse he said, “I hope this answers your question. By the way, what was your question?” Favorite ambitions department- get an Arts school locker open in one try. 230 A lot of companies supplied the Industries men with favors for their smoker—included among them were painters’ hats (to wear when painting the town red. of course). Hi lights of the Engineers’ Banquet—The lights went off when the fan dancer came on and the mad scramble for matches and cigarette lighters almost caused a riot. fessors showed they could take it when the pretty show girls dished it out. The hell tower and activities building got somewhat mixed up or confused, like a fog scene or sumpin' in the minds of some of the students. And, too, from the comments on the straw vote ballots. I’ll bet that many a laugh was had behind the closed doors. There were 321 paid admissions. I hey threw nickels when the newsboy stood up and sang, but when one of the Arts officers sang his solo they leffed! I lie souvenirs were leather letter carriers.

One of our English professors called a trembling freshman up to his desk after class had been dismissed, and asked him in a harsh voice whether he knew the essay he handed in was one of Emerson’s. The hoy turned white and said in a bitter voice: T got it from one of my fraternity brothers, but I never thought he could he such a low down cheat!” We were told that we were to get more light on the campus, at least were told that flood- 231 lights were planned for the campus dark spots. W ell, I thought all the students on the campus were bright spots, and that being the case, what need for floodlights in the dark corners when there ain't any? Remember Reginald the Roving Reporter and Oscar the Hermit. Data on the Arts dance: A cake was awarded as a door prize (there are two eakc eaters on the council, at least they were present when the charming young coed cut the cake). W hy is the “plop” of a balloon busting so fascinating? The clever little dance programs made in the form of memo pads almost caused a hair-pulling riot between the boys and the girls! The dancers made no effort to resist the temptations of the balloons. The W ashington's Birthday Dance was held on the birthday of the Father of Our Country. Thistle Hall was transformed into a mass of red, white, and blue colors, attractively arranged to blend in with the natural beauty of the hall. Val Garvin’s orchestra provided the music and was immensely enjoyed. The Thanksgiving Dance is scheduled to take advantage of Thanksgiving holiday recess. It is the first social function of the Night Student Council and is always a lovely affair. This year the dance was held in Thistle Hall for the first time. It was beautifully decorated with yellow and black streamers. Corn stocks and oilier reminders of harvest time decorated the corners of the hall. The dance was well attended and many compliments were extended to Jack Logan’s orchestra for the fine music rendered. 232 AN APPRECIATION To these advertisers who, it must he remembered have represented their various trades among these pages because of their sincere interest in Carnegie, for College annual advertisements arc of little commercial value; we the 1935 Thistle Staff, on behalf of ourselves and the student body, do here express our appreciation. 233 TODAY YOU STAND AT THE THRESHOLD Spread before you lies the ever expanding drama of life. How different it is from that of two generations ago! Count the new facilities for better living that have appeared on the scene since fifty years ago: Speedier, more comfortable transportation by air, rail, highway and water . . . instant communication by radio, wireless and telephone that most thought impossible a half-century ago . . . better, more efficient equipment with which to work in every phase of business endeavor . . . and, best of all, countless new conveniences and luxuries for the home. In making possible these vast improvements, electricity has played a leading part . . . both directly and indirectly. Electrical progress has paralleled or led that of general advancement in living and working conditions. And George Wcstinghousc, by laying the groundwork for today’s use of electricity through his development of alternating-current machinery and transmission equipment, stands out as a pioneer in the electrical field. Today, wherever electricity is put to work . . . from the giant motor that drives the rolls in a steel plant to the electric refrigerator in your kitchen . . . you will find Wcstinghousc products completely and dependably serving industry in all its phases.
