Davis GosMcil Carnegie’s Student Council is a governing body with real power. The Council directs the activities, policies, and funds of many of the student organizations on campus because it has control of the students’ activity fees. The members of this council are put at the head of committees to handle points and keys, to draw up budgets for the various groups who receive appropriations from Council, to act as a mediary between the students and the heads of publications, and to direct elections. The Chairman of Student Council’s social committee has charge of securing suitable bands and making arrangements for Tech dances, as well as seeing that dates for tea-dances and other afternoon events are scheduled so that they will not conflict. Every Tuesday evening the members assemble to settle the affairs of the student body. This year Council added By-laws to its Constitution which cover the undefined points that formerly caused I 26] confusion. Realizing that the men's class honorarics were in need of reform, they set up a points committee to oversee the selection of men for the Dragons, Delta Skulls, and the Scimitars. The work that Student Council does which appeals most to the student body is organizing .and running Spring Carnival. Signing two big-name bands, handling the business end of Scotch and Soda show, seeing that the buggy races and Call Day are efficiently managed, and arranging for the coronation of the Queen mean real work for Council's Carnival Chairman. Although this year was featured by numerous heated debates, all the business was finally dispatched in a manner satisfactory to the interests of all.

Riley Fowler Secretary James Darnall Treasurer Frank Hesch Social Chairman Robert Webb To enable Greek letter fraternities to express themselves through a central body, the In ter fraternity Council was established on the Tech campus. Each house is represented on the council by two men—a senior and a junior representative. These men determine the action to be taken and the events to be sponsored by the fraternities throughout the year. I his year considerable investigation was made into the idea of cooperative buying by the different fraternity houses. Then plans were completed for a general rushing manual to be sent to next fall’s freshmen. Under this new plan the incoming students 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. Council conducted two successful dances during the year—the Inlcrfratcrnilv Informal, held at Thistle Hall, and the Interfraternity Formal at the Hotel Schenley.

Young. 9ntefttevuvutif, Go-uttcil Intersorority Council is an organization composed of fifteen members, one junior and one senior from each sorority on campus, and the president. flic council decides all questions pertaining to inter-sorority associations and promotes a bond ol friendship between the girls of the Fine Arts School and Margaret Morrison. The first and most important function of the group each year is to issue rushing rules. This year it deferred the rushing season in the Arts school until mid-term, turning from the usual period in October so as not to conflict with the plan of studies. This has been a busy year for the council. It gave two non-rushing teas which officially opened the rushing seasons in the two schools; it sponsored a chapel in October; in February it held the annual Inter-sorority Formal, at the Hotel Schenley—a dance eagerly anticipated by sorority girls; it helped make the December Women's Guild dance a success, for each sorority had a booth at which the groups helped raise money for the Guild scholarship fund; and it supervised the participation of all the sororities in the annual Greek Sing and Swing. Windup for the year were the activities of the council at the Spring Carnival, when the sororities attended booths at the street dance and contributed an afternoon of fun with their buggy races.

In order to promote friendliness and interest in the dormitories, it arranges an intramural athletic program and a social program which provides for dances, dorm parties, jam sessions, and finally, the biggest event on the dormitory social calendar, the Men's Dormitory Council Dance. fhe Claymore Clan is the Men's Dormitory Honorary and Social Fraternity. Its members are selected on the basis of their scholastic and activity achievements. Though it has no direct connection with the Dormitory Council, it helps to promote all dormitory activities—social, cultural, and athletic. flic Dormitory Council has done a great deal toward improving the standards of living in the dormitories and toward creating a spirit of greater goodwill and friendliness.

' bosinut uj, Gowned The Women's Dormitory Council is made up of the presidents of each house and the vice-presidents of the upper-class houses. The government of all the resident girls is in the hands of this organization. The Dormitory Council works with the Women’s Dormitory Student Government Association which is composed of all women in the dorms. It is under the supervision of the Dean of Women. The duties of the council arc to make laws and enforce them for the good of all. This year many new privileges for the girls have been inaugurated as a result of council actions. In Whitfield, an upper-class house, a new experiment is being tried. Girls arc allowed eleven o’clock privileges every night, and one o’clock on Saturday. There is no quiet hour in Whitfield as there is in the other dorms because the girls find it unnecessary. One day a week an informal tea is held to which the girls are supposed to bring their friends. This is to promote friendship between the different dorms and the town girls. II this experiment proves successful its benefits will Ik. introduced in all the dorms next year. Girls who serve on the Dormitory Council for two years receive activity keys.

[35] Kxliihition Night Carnegie Tech is tlie only college in the world offering a course in printing engineering which leads to a Bachelor of Science degree. The department draws its students from Europe, South America and practically every state in the Union. In addition to the regular four year course, a special two year course is given to men who have received either a B. S. or an A. B. degree. Guided by competent instructors and with modern equipment at their disposal, the printing students receive theoretical training and actual experience in layout and design, hand and machine composition, presswork, selling, and printing plant management. In conjunction with this technical training, the students of the printing department carry the usual general studies which are given to all engineers. With such a background, the Printing Department graduates arc capable to fill various types ol positions in the printing industry. It is a regular practice for the department to have as its guests prominent men from the printing industry who visit the department and deliver lectures on current problems of printing. Further in keeping with this policy, the Printing Department holds an annual reunion at which time graduates of the department and noted men from the printing profession are on the Tech campus for a two day period of technical sessions. 136} Anderson, A.

Management Engineering HOBE, WALLACE ajj Management nc nee'Uwf As ai v engineer knows, the several branches of the profession have come from one common stem, each one separating into a special field as need for it appeared. Management engineering is no exception to this. With the growth of modern large-scale industry based on technical processes, more and more engineers found themselves engaged in managerial pursuits. I he need was for men who could control the industrial process; the engineer had the technical background and a habit of analytical thinking, so he was usually able to learn by experience howto organize and manage a shop or plant. But since the purpose of education is to equip men to learn more quickly from experience, it is natural that there should be an engineering course which trains men to deal with industry as a machine. A large machine is an impressive thing. When one stops to think of it, how much more impressive is the productive organization which plans and executes the details of making a complete product. 'Phis requires planning of the process, obtain- ing machinery, employing workers, providing materials and then making this mechanism run smoothly so that it will produce electrical apparatus or bathtubs, propel lor s or pickles, as the case may be. It goes farther since the product must find a user. The student who is graduated in Management Engineering has studied to take his place in operating this mechanism. First of all. he is thoroughly grounded in those subjects fundamental to all engineering mathematics, mechanics, physics, chemistry, and drawing. I Ie has acquired an understanding ol the work of the electrical, metallurgical, mechanical, and civil engineers; thus oriented, he can deal with many routine situations, and readily extend his knowledge as he needs to. lie has also studied the special problems of industrial management, from the location and layout of the plant to the control of waste in its operation. 11 is knowledge of cost accounting enables him to meet competition with confidence, while his study of motion and lime analy- I38j sis helps him to obtain efficient and economical operation. I le is acquainted with the necessary parts which finance and sales play in the success of a company, and he has examined the problem of management-worker relationships. When to this is added his realization of the civic and social responsibilities of the engineer, it is evident that the graduate in Management Hnginccring is a well-rounded person. Furthermore, he will line! his place in one of a wide variety of industries. Not only the traditional steel of Pittsburgh, but also electrical apparatus, plumbing and heating equipment, transportation, aircraft motors and propellers, and many specialty products will open opportunities to him. In time of an emergency he will perhaps serve his country as coordinator of production for his district. Breadth of training and experience will combine with energetic personality to make him uselul and successful.

McCabe Head of the Department of Chemical Engineering Chemical Engineers are concerned with designing, developing, and operating the process industries; these include such industries as the high-pressure synthesis of ammonia from Hydrogen and Nitrogen, and the development of dyes, solvents, and plastics. Basic courses for the Chemical Engineer, include Physics, Chemistry, .Mathematics, Mechanics, and English. He must be able to think in terms of abstract quantities such as ions, atoms, ami molecules. 11 is entire work is based upon a thorough understanding of chemical fundamentals. Most important, the Chemical Engineer must realize that industrial problems must be solved in a reasonable length of time, as they come. The Chemical Engineer with his B.S. degree has at once open to him work such as Sales, Plant Operation, Research Assistant, or Graduate Work. Later he may work in Operation and Production, Sales Engineering, or General Management. To complete any course in Chemical Engineering graduate work is necessary. The graduate training includes advanced courses in the pure sciences and in subjects related to Chemical Engineering. Fora master’s degree, the student is given a small research project upon which he must prepare a thesis. ■ Braun, Martin J., Pittsburgh, Pa.; . . C t. ' .; S. A. .11.

Four long years have been spent In educating and training another group of young chemists, physicists, and mathematicians to take their places in the world. The students in this department have received extensive training in both fundamental and advanced subjects dealing with their course. Many have also worked on special problems and practical applications concerned with their studies. After this long period of struggling and slaving, these classes will now leave Carnegie to better our way of living through the knowledge, skill, and ability which they have obtained here. Some will become teachers, others research scientists, and still others, statisticians, all of which have an important bearing upon modern science. These three subjects, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, are vital in the study of engineering and form an excellent basis for prospective engineers. They arc now recognized as essential to our modern life and progress. Their role in our present life is ever-increasing in importance, especially since so much activity is being carried on in national defense work. Evidence of this growing importance is seen in the increasing size of the classes year by year. Although classed collectively as the Engineering Science department, the chemistry, physics, and math departments are actually separate groups. Dr. J. C. Warner is head of the chemistry department. Dr. II. S. Mower leads the physics department, and Dr. L. L. Dines is the mathematics head. Besides their duties in their respective departments, these men also teach in the engineering courses. In the spring Open House exhibition, the students demonstrate, lecture, and experiment on (he various phases of their work for (he benefit of visitors. An extensive amount of time is spent in preparation for this event. The class of ’41 now goes out to enter their respective fields to aid and further our scientific knowledge and progress. 1481 Znc ineeMnx Science Clay fool, Marry A., Steubenville, Ohio; Delia f psilon; inn Bela Pi: Phi Kappa Phi: Modern Language Club; Intramural Basketball, Football, and Fable Tennis. • • DuNCAN, ROBERT W , Akron, Ohio; Della 'Fan Della.

C. Warner Head of (he Department of Chemistry Infra-red Research [49} they learned in mathematics, mechanics, and physics. For the first time the student is left almost alone with his own reasoning, and together with that and his earlier attained engineering knowledge he is required to analyze and solve the difficult problems which he is given. Mathematics, chemistry, physics, and applied mechanics take up most of the time in the first two years. This year both the freshman and sophomore classes are taking another new course replacing the electives. The course. Social Relations, is in its second year at Tech and is doing nicely in socializing the engineer. While the engineering courses arc developing the technological side of the student. Social Relations is developing his social side, lilting him for the position he will later assume. In the junior and senior year theories of electrical circuits, magnetism, electrical machinery, and their application to engineering practice occupy most of the student’s time. It is during these two years that the student electrical engineer meets for the first time the practical problems he will eventually meet many times in his career. I cell’s graduates in this department really go into the world fully equipped to take their place in industry. The department has again played a large part in I cell’s annual Spring Exhibition by throwing open its labs to the public, demonstrating electrical theory and the use and care of electrical machinery. Carnegie is well represented with electrical societies. The American Institute of Electrical Engineers has a branch on the campus and numbers a very large membership. Eta Kappa Nu, the electrical engineering honorary fraternity, also has a chapter here and rates very high scholastically. It is one of the most active of Tech’s honoraries and has assumed a leading place in campus affairs. As usual Tech's graduating class in Electrical Engineering is well represented in the school's activities, flic scholastic standing is high and the class always has a good portion of its men on the other school honoraries. Further proof of the Electrical Engineering reputation at Tech is the increasing number of students entering the department. Each class usually numbers between thirty and thirty-live students, but this year's sophomore class entered the department with over fifty students, and then went on to establish some of the best grades ever attained by a sophomore class.

C., Solon, the King of Athens, was visiting Croessus, legendary monarch of the mint. This king of Lydia proudly displayed his treasures of gold, whereupon the acrimonious Solon remarked, “Sir, if any other came that hath better iron than you, he will be master of all tin's gold!” In 1941, we know this is true. Wars are won with superior steels and machine civilization is dependent upon man s ability to forge, cast, temper, and treat metals. For who among us is so clever that he could construct an airplane that would flv, from cast and wrought iron, the staples of a by-gone day? Thus a scientific world needs precise metals for a precision machine; progress in engineering depends upon scientific progress. The Metals Research Laboratory of Carnegie Tech is primarily maintained for this purpose. The laboratory prepares men for practical problems in this field by giving sound basic research. The engineer in Metallurgy needs basic courses in chemistry, English, mathematics, mechanics, and physics. To complete a course in Metallurgical Engineering, graduate work is necessary. The proportion of men taking graduate work in this course is high as is the placement record. The field of Metallurgical Engineering has recently come into its own. It is rapidly becoming a highly specialized science, and with the advancement of the understanding of the treatment of metals will come a corresponding advancement in the development of new machines which are made possible by new alloys. 1551 Photographing a Specimen Ament Culver Hoi-kins Rood Bosch Deans K LIMAS Sri NOEL Boyle Bkovkrman Butler Cameron Fowler Groms Heilman IIooe I.ANKroRD Marlin Porter Prlmikr Thimble Wkixmak Weller [56] Rolling Mill Strength of Materials Ament, Donald C., Pittsburgh, Pa.; Delhi Tau Della; Hockey: A.

McCullough Head of the Department oj Civil Engineering Pittsburghers have long been aware of the traffic problems of a city Ill-designed to compensate for modern traffic. Such Civil Engineering triumphs as the Pennsylvania Turnpike and even the Schenlev Park ‘‘cloverleaf attest that Civil Engineering is no science of the past, but very up-to-date. Carnegie Tech's Civil Engineers gel first-hand information on such projects. Many of the Civils have specialized in Sanitary Engineering, while others have taken architectural courses. It is small wonder that Tech graduates are sought by employers who desire a man capable of doing his job, and doing it well.

Median teal Engineering One of the oldest and largest departments In the school is the department of mechanical engineering. The present head of the department is Professor Frinks who has been with Carnegie Tech since the school was first opened. The department was originally only for general mechanical engineers, and o fie red a course combining a broad study of engineering with the theory and practice essential in this field. Today, however, it has expanded considerably and now enjoys the respect and interest of the engineering profession. The department offers three options: General Mechanical Engineering; Aeronautical Engineering; and Plumbing and Air Conditioning. The general course in mechanical engineering aims to give theory and practice essential to any branch of mechanical engineering and also some detailed training during the senior year in a few selected fields. This department has excellent opportunities for specializing in the held of heat and power because of the large power plant, located in the basement of Machinery Hall, which produces most of the heat and electric power used in the dormitories, lecture halls, and laboratories. Here the student may carry out experimental work in fuels, combus- [601 tion, heat engineering, internal combustion engines, and mechanics. In 1928 the Department of Aeronautical Kngineering was started after thirty freshmen went to Dr. Baker, who was then president of Tech, with the request for a course in aeronautical engineering at Carnegie Tech. Very reluctantly I)r. Baker consented; reluctantly localise he considered aeronautical engineering just a passing fad which would not last very long. Time has since proved the freshmen, and this option progressed rapidly. Students now use an eleven thousand dollar wind tunnel, water tanks, ami other equipment necessary for the study of aero-dynamic principles. The student taking aeronautical engineering prepares himself for design and construction of aircraft, and for general aeronautical work. In 1952 the option of Plumbing and Air Conditioning was established and became part of the department. Up to the present time the men desiring this kind of knowledge have been relatively few, but the increasing public interest in air-conditioning promises to provide a brilliant future for those now enrolled. Plumbing and air conditioning students study precisely what the title of their option implies; namely the construction, design, and testing of plumbing and air-conditioning system. The students in the General Mechanical Engineering option maintain a very active student branch ol the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and those taking the Aeronautical Engineering option have their branch of the Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences. The students in the Plumbing and Air Conditioning take part in the local section of the American Society of Heating and Ventilation Engineers. There is also a strong chapter of the honorary mechanical engineering fraternity. Pi Tau Sigma, which is o|� cn to those juniors and seniors having the required scholastic standing. [61] Bankson, E.

Painting epoSitmesttl o-jj Judgment, crits ”, paint-smeared smocks, long hours, lights” hard work, and lots of fun—of course, it’s the department of Painting and Design. Students in this department are really interested in their work and it would be hard to find on the schedule cards all of the hours which they spend in the Art School. In spile of all the hard work, however, P. D.’s somehow manage to conserve enough energy to have a good time after classes are over. Judgment coming twice each semester is the P. l).s’ nightmare. During the few days and nights before the deadline, students work frantically, get no sleep, and spend their few moments of relaxation worrying about how to finish that other design by midnight. The hard work and long hours which non-art students treat so lightly are lessened considerably by the wonderful group of professors under Mr. Vilford Peadio. These Art School professors are not above having tea in the Beanery with their protegees after classes are over. Teacher-student relations are friend to Iriend relations. A P. D.’s work is by no means confined to class assignments. This department does a great deal of work for Scotch and Soda, making sets and helping with decorations. They also make the majority of posters used on the campus. The Painting and Design students have successfully combined work and fun with the result that their department is interesting, practical, and highly rated among other schools. { 63 ] PcUrttiaCf Gttdi Ip. tu- c [69] ep Atmesitl of Painting, belic n, Allmknoikokr Arnold Bkato Bim.r.

This new theater is located in what was once an old laboratory behind the Beanery, but it has been remodeled until it is now complete with all the equipment needed for presenting plays. The general public is never invited, since the plays presented there are for the benefit of the Drama Department only. Much variety was shown in the plays which were presented in the Little Theatre this year. The first was Craig s Wife,whi ch was written by George Kelly. This was followed by Paul Green s House oj Connelly and a program ol Christmas, short one-act plays which included The Xa iei y Play, Si. George and he Dragon, and Thornton Wilder's Long Christmas Dinner. Alter that, the Drama students presented When We Were Married-—a farce wrtiten by J. B. 172] Stage Hand Priestly. Next came the play Dawn in Lyon esse which had been written by Mr. Thomas Job, who had recently become a member of the faculty. Although this play had been considered several times lor production in New York, the Dramats had the honor of presenting it for the first time. They followed it with another “first” when they presented a revival of The Beggar's Opera written by John Gay. Not that they were the first to revive it, but they gave a musical presentation for the first time without aid from the Department of Music. Since it was the first musical effort they had ever tried to present alone, they had Lehan Engel well known conductor and compose!—act as a guest director for the production. Finally Shakespeare’s Comedy of Errors was given, followed by an original and the dramatic presentations for the year were complete.

During their college course they receive plenty of opportunity to display their ability. The Symphony Orchestra of Tech is now an important part of the lives of the students and a welcome feature to those who enjoy their concerts. During this year radio broadcasts were made, recitals given in the Little Theater, and the regular concerts given in the Carnegie Music Hall. These performances provide an opportunity lor work in the concert field, in broadcasting, and in symphony work. All the music students receive training both in instrumental and in vocal music, regardless of their majors and thereby receive a well-rounded musical education. J.

Study Hard 15 C. C.’s Pouiulinj: (lie Books To make and inspire the home” is one of the ideals of the Household Economics and Costume Economics Departments. Although the former tends to the more practical side of the home life, the latter proves important also. The Household Economics Department trains its students lor dietetics, the managing of tea rooms, and fields correlated with the scientific study of foods. It offers courses in market, in nutrition, and the choice and preparation of foods, 'fhe girls gel actual practice in tea room management through the work that they do in the tea room at school. Once a week the tea room is open to the faculty and students for lunch. A hake sale, which is held in the spring, gives anyone who gels there early enough an opportunity to buy the really fine pies, cakes, and cookies that the cooking students have made. The Costume Economics Department lias a varied range of subjects, the major one being problems and construction of clothing. In cooperation with Kaufmann’s department store the girls give an annual style show of clothes that they have made. Some of the girls design their own clothes; others use commercial patterns; but all turn out beautiful outfits for this show. Another style show is put on at Open House Exhibition. Girls in this department gel actual experience in dealing with department store problems by doing store service work one day each week while they arc seniors. Home decoration, textiles, applied and costume design, and period styles in furniture and costume are also offered. The graduates of this department may enter the designing field, department store work, or act as assistants to textile technicians or interior decorators. These two courses arc combined in the Teacher Training course, which prepares its students to leach dietetics and clothing in public schools. Home Economics students have a wide field before them. If they care to teach, they can almost invariably count on being placed as soon as they graduate, but they are also prepared to do demonstration work.

Of course, the kind of work they do depends on the type of office in which they are employed, and there are many different abilities required.

There are relatively few students in the departments of General Studies. General Science, and Nurses’ Training. General Studies is the closest Carnegie Tech comes to a liberal arts course. There is more freedom in selecting subjects in this department than in any other. Students in General Studies are divided into the two divisions, secretarial minor anti pre-library. The secretarial minor division teaches the technique of Knglish writing together with the mechanics of typing and shorthand. A graduate of this division is well trained to Ik- a secretary to a writer or lecturer, as well as a secretary to a business man. The pre-library division helps give an understanding of the various kinds of literature and provides a cultural basis for specialized training in the Library School. Or. Lang Girls who want to l� e librarians may take this course and Head oj (he Department of he sure of having the best training possible. General Science The General Science Department, with Professor Lang at its head, is increasing in size, for the number of underclass students is much larger than heretofore. Although all sciences are taught, most emphasis is placed on those of biology and chemistry, Iwcause there is a greater opportunity for women in these fields. Graduates may become laboratory workers or teachers, and they may also enter medical school, using this as a pre-medical course. The General Science Club was active this year, with a Christmas party, lectures, and a visit to the Westing-house Research I«d , where the atom smasher was the main attraction. The five year nursing course is given by both the Department of General Science and the School of Nursing of the Western Pennsylvania Hospital. Three years are spent at Margaret Morrison Carnegie College. I lere the students receive a background for their professional training, which is given at the hospital. Brodik, Ruth S.. Pittsburgh.

In order that this aid may l e properly administered, social workers who have been trained to meet these problems are necessary. It is with this in mind, then, that the students graduating from a four-year course in Social Science have been taught the fundamental sciences prerequisite for the two-year graduate profession training leading to the degree of Master of Social Work.

Caffee President of the Pittsburgh Clan The Alumni Federation of over ten thousand graduates of Carnegie Institute of Technology is glad of this opportunity to welcome the Class of 1941 into the organization. As its name implies the alumni group is a federation of clans or local organizations through which the graduates and former students serve the interests of Carnegie Tech. The government is vested in the Alumni Council, which is composed of delegates from the clans. The Council meets annually at Homecoming. The Executive Committee, consisting of the elected officers of the Federation and the chairmen of the Federation’s two standing committees, the Alumni Fund Committee for Endowment and the Steffen Memorial Scholarship Committee, carry on the business between Council meetings. There are no membership dues in the Alumni Federation. Every graduate is a member by virtue of his graduation. The several clans which arc established wherever there are ten or more graduates desirous of organizing, usually collect dues in order to defray costs of mailing and entertainment for Clan activities alone. A hearty welcome awaits any member of the class of ’41 who finds himself in the cities listed on the opposite page. Smokers lor the men, teas for the women, dinners when administration officers and members of the faculty visit, golf parties, beach suppers, picnics, and so on, appear continually on clan programs. Across-the Continent Clan Day is the special celebration, when all clans meet simultaneously, and messages are sent from one clan to another. This year the Pittsburgh Men's Clan is sponsoring an Alumni Night at the Scotch and Soda Club’s play on May 1 which is Across-the Continent Clan Day. Naturally the clans have other than social interests. They serve Carnegie in a wide variety of ways. The Pittsburgh and Philadelphia Women’s Clans make annual scholarship awards to worthy students. ”fhe Alumni Homecoming takes place every fall, usually the week-end of the Carnegie-Pitt Game. Naturally many members of ’41 will return next November to be present when their class plate for the floor of Administration I lall is presented to Dr. Doherty at the Homecoming banquet. Four times a year the Carnegie Alumnus is sent to all graduates and former students whose addresses are correct on our files, flic magazine devotes itself to news of the institution and reports of student and alumni activities.

This feat is all the more noteworthy because the changes have not lowered its effectiveness in presenting the news. All the news—activities, sports, lectures, dances, gossip, human interest stories—is presented in its columns. By presenting the news and presenting it well it fulfills the duty of a good newspaper. The Tartan, however, has done more than that. It has experimented to line! ways to improve the quality of the newspaper. First the staff: Freshmen usually are given routine work. This year more green freshmen did their part in reporting and writing the news. This increased their enthusiasm in the paper. Because of the increased interest the stall was enlarged. And a new plan was introduced to allot responsibility to the juniors, so that every one would have a fair opportunity to show his ability. The stall’ for next year's Tartan will be better selected as a result of this plan, for every member will have won his place, and will be the one best suited for and most interested in his position. Then the physical set-up of the paper itself: 'the Nineteen The News and The Tartan became much easier to read and handle during the past year. The number ol columns on a page was cut down from eight to six. This decrease was more than made up by increasing the number of pages from lour to six. Now a student can read his Tartan in class without causing a disturbance every time he turns a page. The contents of the paper itself underwent changes. There were new features introduced. Every week a picture and a write-up about an outstanding senior woman or man was presented, under the heading One of Hie (iirlr or One of he Boi s. The picture was a pen and ink drawing— an unusual and artistic innovation. A humorous column Bullerscofch was written by Ruth Brodie, in which she made witty and pertinent observations about the events at school anti in the news. Taking a leaf from the picture magazines, the Tartan this year had more and better photographs. There were pictures of assembly speakers, teachers and students, campus activities, sport events, and feature writers. These pictures made the articles much more interesting. tf-oAty-Owe Cardan Views of Our Campus The Tartan also acted as a promoter this year. Wav last fall, with the Frank and Seder Company, it produced a super fashion show, with our own little Joe and Jean College’s acting as mannequins. The department store supplied the outfits and the Tartan did the work of planning. It supervised this show, called, quite appropriately, Tech-in-Cotor. In addition, a special edition ol the Tartan was put out the same day as the show. Besides this special edition, an even larger issue was released on Exhibition Night. It had twelve pages! And there were sixteen thousand (yes, 16,000, count ’em) copies printed. This was a keepsake issue that all who attended were delighted to have. The staff of the Tartan, with Leonard Shatz-kin as editor-in-chief, can hand over to the incoming staff an example of editing that will be difficult to equal, let alone surpass.

Because it has a wide variety of engineering subjects to choose from, the last year has provided articles of great interest. They included a series’ entitled Ten Months at Sea During War Time”, in which an undergraduate told of his interesting experiences. One incident which he described was the sinking of the Admiral (iraj Spec. Other articles have touched on such varied subjects as Frequency Modulations , the “Westinghouse Atom Smasher , and Developments in Synthetic Rubber. The outgoing staff has worked hard and successfully on the past year’s issues, and the incoming staff, under their tutelage, has been well trained to take over in making further improvements in the future. Contrary to popular belief, college students are interested enough in serious topics of an engineering nature to support a student publication which satisfies this demand. Thanks to the cooperation of the men on the faculty and the hard-working staff members, the Carnegie Technical is able to fill this need. f 106} , Walker. Wright. Piper, Molitinc. Mean . Orifllthi.

Ite Seattle, The Scottik is Carnegie Tech’s humor magazine, published monlhlv from its olTices in the Carnegie Union. These olTices become the scene of feverish activity each month as the dreaded deadline approaches. There is a regular staff of a modest size, but this staff is swelled each month by the addition of about thirty high-powered salesmen and what seems like hundreds of spies, who are extremely alert people as far as catching stray tidbits of gossip is concerned. These bits stray right into the “I'leas” department of the Scottie. The Scottie keeps Tech aware of extra-curricular doings. It has a sports department, a fashion department. a section for jokes, and a department which keeps us well informed about the latest swing. The Scottie publicizes I lie dances and other social affairs on campus. Each month it features several photographs of current interest. Every issue has a new and different theme. The September issue, first of the year, gave the up-to-the-minute low-down on fraternities and fraternity rushing. Next followed the sorority rushing issue and then the one in which Homecoming and the Military Ball were featured. This contained pictures of the honorary cadets, chosen as in years before by the boys in the R. (). T. C. Then followed the Snow Queen issue and the others, including a Spring Carnival edition which contained information about the great carnival—bands, a program of events, and our beautiful campus queen for the last grand issue of the year.

This staff is open to everyone and activity keys are awarded to those who serve on it lor a period of two years or over. The Student Directory is the “telephone book ol Tech. It contains the name, phone number, and address of each of the students and of each fraternity and sorority. During the past few years the directory has been printed by the school, but this year I ri-Pub will resume the publication of it under the supervision of the women's editor. This arrangement offers an excellent opportunity to all Margaret Morrison girls interested in activities, for the work consists of typing, arranging, and filing. The handbook, published each spring, is a great aid to freshmen and a source of information for all. This year’s handbook will be quite different from any of the preceding editions, since the staff has decided to replace all the antiquated pictures with Petty Drawings. They feel that this change in illustration will improve the book a great deal. The Song book, the third undertaking of Tri-Pul), was abandoned this year because of the lack of interest in it, but it has been substituted by a new section of songs in the handbook. Tri-Publications are invaluable to all Tech students, for what would the freshmen do without the handbook, and what would the upperclassmen do without the phone numbers and addresses in the Student Directory?

I he Bagpiper includes reviews of dorm sports, minutes Irom the meetings of the men's and women’s dorm councils, and news about the Claymore Clan, the dorm men's honorary. There is also a gossip column concerning the social doings of dorm men and women, and a weekly short sketch of some outstanding dorm personality. During the first part of every week, the third floor of the Union becomes a scene of hectic activity, as the busy stall writes and mimeographs the paper lor publication on Thursday. After a year or so as copy-readers, typists, and reporters, they can be selected lor positions on the staff.

Head Although Carnegie Tech's football fortunes may rise ami fall, the fellows who take over between halves, the Kilties, invariably come through with a top flight aggregation. Known throughout the country because of their line music, original formations, and distinctive uniforms, the Kiltie band can boast of a reputation which can be equaled by lew, if any, other college bands in the country. The band was organized in 1910, soon after the school was founded. In 1922 the unique uniforms were obtained from Scotland, and recently a front row of bagpipers was added to the ranks. Each year they accompany the football team on at least one of their trips out ol town. This trip represents at least one day oil from school plus a wonderful weekend, and is eagerly looked forward l l it- : Knrquhnr Gilman. Moyer, Church. Kitigcrald. IliinUlK-rgcr.

While marching in a parade before the game, the Kilties, much to their own surprise, won a marching cup for which they didn’t know they were competing. Those who have never witnessed the boys maneuver between halves may not realize how much time is spent in learning and perfecting these formations. The Kiltie stomp,” the informal dancing entertainment, provided by the band during the halves, requires less training but more energy than any other maneuver. The batons are skillfully handled by Paul Wines who was selected by the American Drummers Association as the champion baton twirlcr of the nation last year and he still holds this title. Anyone who has seen him perform will agree that he has a technique that would be hard to equal anywhere. Football games arc not the only occasions at which the Kiltie band exercises its talents. Basketball games, pep rallies, and other school events arc provided with music by this group. This year J| they gave live concerts away from the campus, and wound up their season with a very successful concert in Carnegie Music Hall on April 24. They marched with the R. 0. T. C. in the parades on Carnegie Day, Exhibition night, and the President's Review. As a reward for services rendered, members of the Kiltie bant! are given silver activities keys for two years’ service, and gold keys for four years' service. The bandsmen spend a great deal of time and energy in order that Tech may have a band of which it may be proud. {113J tiw; Knl-Uatl, Oup. Ilalhmia), S-|uitcfi. Rosen-imi|. 2nd Row: laino, lime .

Each year it attempts to raise a certain sum of money for scholarships and loans to be given to those who need them. Guild has four functions a year which aid it in maintaining its fund. In the fall of this year a Tag Day was held; keeping in spirit with the election, miniature elephants and donkeys were sold. Another Guild Tag Day took place in late spring. On December sixth the annual Guild Dance was given in Thistle Hall. It was cleverly captioned Jingle Belle’s Ball. Every women’s organization sponsored a booth, at which refreshments were sold or entertaining games were played. Thistle Hall looked very gay and festive with the colorful decorations. It was a big success and helped a great deal towards the goal Guild had set. A Fashion Show and Tea completed Guild's calendar.

It is their purpose to serve the students of Carnegie in such a way as to influence them to live clean lives and to lead them into active church service, for the members feel that the lack of church attendance is one of the greatest causes for world conditions today. They help the students in many ways; for instance, on the Sunday during freshman week they conduct the dormitory freshmen to churches of any denomination they desire. Also in freshman week, they present a sports day and corn roast to the freshmen, in order that they may become letter acquainted among themselves. To help the freshmen become better acquainted with the faculty, a freshman dinner is held at the Commons. During the year meetings are held every two weeks at which prominent ministers of the city speak. At three times throughout the year, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, dinners are held at the Grill to which all students arc invited. Flic last big activity of the year is the retreat held at Cook’s lorcst. Members spend their time in religious discussions and various forms of recreation.

Planning the Big and Little Sister Movement to welcome Freshman girls is the first important act of the C. V. C. A. Upperclass women act as Big Sisters and help the new girls to make friends and become acquainted with campus life. This contact lasts all year and is fostered by the Big and Little Sister Tea held later in the fall. During Freshman Week the Association also gives a dinner at the Inn for Freshman women. During the rest of the year dinner meetings are held once a month at the Union, when the girls hear outstanding religious speakers and take part in interesting discussions. This year one of the aims of the Cabinet was to bring closer cooperation l etween the Men's Associations, and for this purpose several joint cabinet meetings were planned to discuss common problems. Meetings with the V Cabinets of Pitt and P. C. Y. have also resulted in new ideas and a broader viewpoint for the C. W. C. A. Other highspots of the program include the Advisors’ Tea and the Christmas and Easter dinners, but the year's climax is the spring retreat. This delightful weekend in the woods bring religious discussions under fine leaders and plans for next year's program; and it always gives the girls spiritual inspiration, a feeling of kinship with nature, and friendly fun.

C. on Parade The year 1041 marked the inception of selective military service in the United States. This is the first time in the history of the nation that such a measure has been adopted in peace time. Men in both advanced and basic R.O.T.C. voluntarily enlisted in this student military training course to prepare themselves to fight lor their country. Whether they will ever be required to put the theories learned into practice no one knows, but we all hope that they will not. Headed bv Cadet Colonel Martin, the morale of the regiment has increased in leaps and bounds, and the cadets now take R.O.T.C. as their most serious course. Infantry tin'll has improved; the soldierly bearing of the troops has improved. Each year since the beginning of R.O. I .C. instruction at Tech, the unit has received the highest rating for military proficiency. fhe advanced corps spends six weeks in camp at Fort Bel voir or Fort Monmouth during the summer following their Junior year at Carnegie.

It’s great experience, though, and the practical engineering learned as well as the application of military engineering will be valuable later on. It is no easy task to construct, repair, and maintain roads for combat, and to build temporary bridges capable of supporting tanks and howitzers, or to construct and operate signal communications. It is even harder to do this under adverse conditions of weather, night, and combat conditions. The work of the Corps of engineers and of the Signal Corps is necessary for the movement of troops and supplies, and so it is vitally essential that these students, the officers of tomorrow, learn how to do these things in the peacetime battlefields of today.

Due to recent de-emphasis of athletics on the Carnegie campus, many of these followers thought that in spite of the fact that a few smaller teams had been included in the schedule, the team would be fortunate to win half of its eight games.

Coach Eddie Baker’s gridiron warriors made their debut early in the fall by crushing a lighter Geneva College eleven 21 to 0.

In the traditional style of the series, both teams were playing in top form. Pitt struck first when they unleashed a running attack and scored. Later in the game Dunn broke through the Panther line and blocked a punt. The ball rolled back to the three yard line where it was downed. In four downs the Ski bos were inches short of a score and lost to a strong Pitt eleven 6 to 0. Muha lead the Plaid to a 18 to 6 victory over Franklin and Marshall College as lie jogged seventy-two yards behind the blocking of Wind and Dobrus on the final play of the first half and sparkpluggcd two other touchdown marches in the second half. It was the sparkling run by Muha that injected new life into the Carnegie team and inspired them to score twice in the second half while the Diplomats constantly fought back but to no avail. Getting back into the win column the Tartans bounced the undefeated Rough Riders from Case 14 to 0. After a slow first quarter in which neither team could get started. Tech scored on a pass from Jordano to Laposki. The Skibos rushed and charged their way to another score in the third quarter. Jordano was the outstanding player in the game as he and Fricdlander led the Carnegie team in its touchdown marches. Pitt Stadium In the final game of the season the Tartans struck quickly at the Duquesne Dukes to jump to an early 7 to 0 lead. It took the Tech team but two minutes to march through the Dukes for sixty-five yards and a touchdown. I lowevcr, the Blue and Red were not to be denied, for they fought back and pushed over a score as the quarter ended. The second period was played in Carnegie territory with the Carnegie line stopping several threats and, at one time, holding the Dukes on the three yard line for three plays. [146} Game Action Later, a long pass into the end zone was knocked into the arms of a Duquesne man and, with the conversion of the point, the scoring ended for the day and the Dukes won 14 to 7. The final period found both coaches clearing their benches so as to get every man into the game as the season closed. 1147] CROSSCOUNTRY Carnegie Hooters I Van. Logan, Plat I. MiGchcc.

They won one meet over the Jeannette harriers and dropped meets to Slippery Rock, Pitt, Westminster and Bethany. The team was hard at practice shortly after the opening of school and Coach 1 Ialferty reported some good times before the opening meet. However each meet was run in different weather and for this reason there was a great difterence in the times reported in the meets and those on better days. At the close of the season. Captain Teresi and five of the runners were awarded letters. Cheerleaders . . . SOCCER The soccer team experienced a fair season winning two and losing four. Interest in soccer was high at the start of the season with a large number reporting for the squad. Tech lost the opener to Allegheny in a wild game that saw two determined teams lighting for honors. After losing a pair to Slippery Rock and Grove City, the Tech hooters journeyed to Frostburg where they met the highly-rated Frostburg Teachers. Although the Skibos lost this game, it is thought by all who follow the Plaid that this game was the high point of the season. The team accompanied the l ech football team to Franklin and Marshall College and won a fray that was played on a slippery held. In the closing game of the season, Tech downed Oberlin College at Oberlin in a nip and tuck contest. Cheerleaders Durhin, Wcebcr, iAcGarvey, Thompson, Lawrence a Ctui x 'IfJinteSi . . . When the Snow Begins to Fall and As January slid in, we began to think of exams; some remain to tell the story. Social life showed a decided upswing with the Soph Hop, Intersororitv Formal, and numerous informal Thistle Hall dances dotting the calendar. We were so busy looking for the Igloo, which finally appeared at the Junior Prom, that we missed half of those jokes about Jeanie and her light brown hair.

The Skibos encountered bitter defeat at the hands of Youngstown College when a sophomore scored thirty points for the opposition, and the following night the Rough Riders of Case rode over the Tech boys by four points as they cashed in on sixteen foul shots. In the pre-Christmas wind-up the Plaid bowed before Westminster in the Tech gym and journeyed to Beaver Falls to lose to Geneva College. Christmas came and went but the Carnegie team seemed to go on as usual as they dropped one to West Virginia and suffered their worst set-back at the hands of the Dukes. The following week the W. J. five invaded the Tech camp and conquered the Skibos. The Pitt Panther crossed Forbes Street for A1 Minetti Night and handed the Tartans their ninth defeat as the first semester ended. Starting the second half of the season, the Carnegie team jumped to a small lead over Geneva College five in the opening minutes of play, but lost it when the once victorious visitors found the range of the Tech gym and went on to edge out a last quarter to win. faking to the road once more, the Hannum-coached team fell before the smooth, easy passing aggregation of Penn State in their first encounter and fared no better against Ulanova on the following night. Once again the need for adequate reserve strength was felt when Tech led Franklin and Marshall in the first half, and after a nip and tuck second half went down in the final minutes before the Diplomats who thus avenged an earlier loss on the gridiron. The Pitt hardwood five that had toured the Big Ten with much success was hard pressed by the Skibos as the Plaid outscorcd their Schenley Park neighbors in the second half but fell points short of victory. Without the service of versatile forward. Hugh Smith, the Tartans were unable to match the strength ol the Duquesnc Dukes in spite of the fact that they showed great improvement over the first game with the highly rated blue and red. Journeying to Morgantown, the Carnegie Cagers went down for the second time. Another loss to Penn State was not able to snap the Tech team out of their losing streak and they lost to the high riding squad of Westminster College. One who did not attend the games will very likely draw the conclusion that the games were dull and uninteresting, but many claim that at no time during the entire season was the Carnegie cause completely lost. f ....-____________________________________________________________I____ .. ■ ;_________ EfLOSltb Varsity Swimming Results Tech.. 44 x i Temple............30J £ Tech.. 25 U. of I )clawarc.....50 Tech.. 45 Western Reserve......52 Tech.. 33 Slippery Rock........42 Tech.. 55 Kent.................20 Tech..31 Penn State..........44 Tech.. 45 Westminister.........30 Tech.. 39 Grove City...........27 Tech. .36 Wash.

Three wins were chalked for the Tartans against two victories for the opposition. Tech opened its season by journeying to Cleveland to engage Western Reserve and for the second year the Tartans lost to the Red Cal’s one man track team, Joe Scott, National Decathlon champion until last June. After losing to Reserve in the opening meet, the Tartans came back to win over Geneva College at Beaver Falls with Haupl turning in good time for the 880-yard run. In spite of the fact that the plaid experienced little difficulty in overcoming Geneva. Condil was severely missed in the weight division. I lad Condit been entered in the other meets, many claim that Tech would have enjoyed a j erfect season. City took the measure of the Tartans as they ended the winning streak in the final meet before the Tri-State Intercollegiate .Meet at Beaver Falls. For the first time in several years the Carnegie team returned from the big meet of the year without the trophy. Continuing their winning stride, the Carnegie ihinclads journeyed to Wavnesburg and downed the Wavnesburg Jackets. Striegel was the big man on Tech’s team as he captured several places in the field events. Sturgeon and Haupt were again out in front in the dashes. In the first meet at home, the I lalferly-coached squad stayed in the win column as they downed the Bethany College team by a considerable margin. Grove 'Phe Presidents from Washington and Jefferson edged out Tech by one point. It is interesting to note that in two instances during the meet a decision of the judges was awarded against Carnegie when either one of the contested points would have given Tech the championship. Haupt, who ran the half mile and mile for the second successive year was chosen captain at the end of the season. £ 159 1 Athletioi Rival Intercollegiate Sports for Popularity First Second Touch Football................

Tech’s chapter is one of seventy spread throughout the country with a national membership of 34,000. Its members arc selected once each semester by the chapter itself. To be eligible a candidate must be in at least the upper eighth of the junior or the upper quarter of the senior class. Men are selected lor their honesty, leadership, scholarship, personality, popularity, and activities. Interviews arc granted to each candidate and the final election endeavors to secure the best men in the class. Of its many activities the most important is the presentation of two fellowships each year to deserving members. Tau Beta Pi also endeavors to raise the factor of the freshman class by tutoring those freshmen who failed at mid-semester. A complete issue of the Technical was s|x nsorcd by Tau Beta Pi, with all of the articles being written by its members. Due to the fact that the men are selected without prejudice and on the basis of their own worth, it may be said that they represent those most likely to be successful in the engineering profession. 1174] Phi Kappa Phi is a national honorary, established with the object of emphasizing scholarship and character in the thought of college students; to foster the significant purposes for which institutions of higher learning have been founded; and to stimulate mental achievement by recognition through election to membership. Student members arc chosen from the upper tenth of the senior class in the three colleges. The chapter at Carnegie also includes faculty members. Activities of this organization during the past year have been numerous and varied. In addition to the regular meetings, the initiation, the Phi Kappa Phi, also sponsored a student assembly this year.

Active members arc selected from the junior and senior mechanical engineering classes at their respective schools. During the year, the Iota chapter has endeavored to carry out its usual program of activities. In November the annual fall initiation and banquet were held. Mr. Lloyd T. Andrew, instructor in Mechanical Engineering, and seven undergraduates were initiated. 'Phe national convention of Pi Tau Sigma was held in November at the University of Iowa. William E. White and Robert L. Boyle attended as delegates from the Iota Chapter. At this convention Professor Thomas G. Estep, of the C. I. T. Mechanical Engineering department, and founder of the Iota chapter, was elected national vice-president of the fraternity. One of the most important activities was the passing of an amendment to the by-laws of the chapter providing for the initiation of night school students. In a joint discussion with Eta Kappa Nu (an electrical engineering honorary), which had previously admitted night school students, a uniform plan was evolved to admit these students, and corresponding additions were made to the by-laws of the Iota chapter. f 176 1 Kmv Weil, M«r cmm.

Theta Tau—a national professional engineering fraternity seeks to bind together those of the engineering students who, by their interest in the development of this field and by their personality, character, and scholarship, are likely to become a credit to their profession and school. A higher standard of ethics and morals is encouraged, and worthy engineering projects are stimulated and discussed. Bids are given out to eligible sophomores and juniors each semester. Perhaps the l csl known activity of the group is the annual selection of the recipient tor the Most Promising Senior Engineer Award. A faculty committee and the members of Theta Tau cooperate in the selection of a student who by his personality, breadth of interest, and scholarship is most likely to become an outstanding engineer. Discussion meetings arc held on subjects other than those which members would ordinarily cover in the curriculum. These subjects are chosen with an eye to broadening the member s education and to making him a better developed man. The Founder's Day and initiation banquets, the meetings which take them to points of interest around Pittsburgh, and the trips to Regional and National Conventions; all serve to tie together the members of this chapter and this chapter with others to a much greater degree than in other honor societies and fraternities.

One of the leading societies on campus, the Scarab's purpose is to increase the appreciation of the graphic arts. One method of encouraging architectural students to produce more successful problems is by awarding prizes in the various classes. Probably, one of the major accomplishments of Scarab this year was sponsoring a program in coo| eration with several members of the faculty which resulted in an arrangement whereby mcml ers of the Architecture Department may become junior members of the Pittsburgh Architectural Club. Philae temple, the Carnegie Tech chapter of Scarab, has been honored with the privilege of l eing the host chapter at the next Scarab convention. Pledges are chosen after three semesters of architectural design on the basis of personality and scholarship, by t lie members. The Scarabs hold several social events during the school year. The first event this year was the annual department banquet held at the Pittsburgh Architectural Club. A departmental picnic at North Park, to which guests were invited, ended the season at which time the freshmen had become very welcome members of Carnegie lech and ever grateful to the Scarabs lor introducing them to their new surroundings. {178} Gillilftiul, Hflfff, Htrpirh, l-fvy, Wilton, Spun, I r.

(). T. C. corps. There are a few men taken from the various branches of the United Stales Army who act as honorary members. I hese men are called in the fall and spring of each year, and their election to memliership is based upon their interest in military science, their participation in campus activities, their general scholastic standing, and their intention to accept a commission upon the completion of the R. 0. T. C. course. The primary function of the organization is to preserve and to develop those qualities which arc essential to good and efficient ofheers. In order to accomplish this end, Scabbard and Blade is active in promoting a fellowship between the Military Department and the corps. A brief resume of a few of the activities sponsored by Scabbard and Blade may suffice to give an idea of just what this organization has meant on Tech’s campus during the past year: the Military Ball, which was the outstanding social event of the first semester; presenting the I Ionorary Cadet trophies and awards for the winners of the R. 0. T. C. Company and cadet competitions; rifle and pistol meets with other companies; development of and interest in drill; the Spring Formal; an active interest and support for all worthy campus activities; fostering a spirit of fellowship in the cadet corps these are a part of Scabbard anti Blade’s activities. { 180 ] AlpJta Glu Alfhlia OFFICERS Miriam Rost President Eleanor Oshry ice-President Betty Mechlinc Secretary Charlotte Miller Treasurer Row: Miller, Stover, S'luiticri, Ctiersky. 2nd Row: Me.

Members of this senior honorary receive formal bids on call day. They are chosen from the Junior Class of the Fine Arts and Engineering colleges by the Points Committee of Student Council because they have proved themselves to be leaders as shown by their past record of activities. During the past year the Dragons gave their services at registration, at the Dean’s reception, at the exhibition, and at the transfer tea dance where they helped introduce the new students to Carnegie. W ithout the Dragons, Carnegie’s dances could not run so smoothly; decorations would not Ihj so unique. Their first (lance last year was the “Blitzkrieg Dance”, and the unusual decorations and “air raid alarm sirens” added to the fun. Of course, everyone realizes that these lads were indispensable at the Student Council tea dances, the Senior Ball, and Spring Carnival. All of these events required time and work, but “the boys” willingly did their best so that the rest of the school could have the best. [ 1821 Town tend, Kilrnlonih, Jcnwn, Hathaway, R««t.

It sponsored two assemblies and its members assisted at the reception for senior women and their mothers at the President's reception for seniors. A Smartv Party at the end of the first semester was given for the ten highest ranking women scholastically in each class. The alumni presented the Founder’s Day Banquet at the University Club, at which Judge Sollel was made an honorary member of the alumni chapter. On Commencement Day a breakfast was held for the outgoing members by the new ones. Several projects were started by this year’s members. Before Christmas they presented a community sing at which Paul Wines performed and Molly van Ameringen sang. Phis was so well liked that the Mortar Board was asked to make it an annual event. A movie on campus etiquette was the second new project and was given in one ol the assembly programs. An idea of this year's members remains for the new members to carry out a furniture exchange. Dormitory girls at the end of the year can sell room decorations to the exchange, and the girls coming to the dorms next year can buy them. Phis is a convenience for both, because they will not have to bring cumbersome articles from home or return them. The sponsors of Mortar Board arc Dr. and Mrs. bang.

After a busy week of helping the freshmen feel at home, they join the Scimitars as aides at the Deans’ Reception. Through their Twin Sister movement they assist transfer students to adjust themselves to our campus. Social affairs sponsored by the Cwens include the Sophomore Hop, the fall tea-dance with the Scimitars, the Valentine Day tea-dance, parties for the transfers and for the Cwens alumnae, and a luncheon for the Pitt Cwens before the Pitt-Tech football game. The more serious work of the chapter consists of Fag Days for the Cwen Scholarship Fund, contributions to the Cwen magazine, scrapbooks of chapter activities. This year’s most important function was the biennial national convention at Muskingum College which ten delegates from the Tech chapter attended.

The seniors have their Dragons, the juniors have their Delta Skulls, and the sophomores, not to he outdone, have their men’s honorary, the Scimitar Society. It has not always been called by this name, however, for until 1935 the sophomore’s honorary was known as the Druid Society, a national organization. The high initiation fee, together with general dissatisfaction, caused the uninitiated Druids to form a new organization to which they gave the present name. Men arc selected each year on Call Day from members of the freshman class who have distinguished themselves as activities men during their first year at Carnegie. It is their duty while Sophomores to organize the freshman orientation program, which this year, for the first time, included a traditions exam. All freshmen were required to pass this test before being eligible for class offices. The Scimitars assist the V-Cabinet in holding a sports day and corn roast during freshman week, in order that the freshmen may become better acquainted. Throughout the year several parties were held, some with the sister organization, the Cwen Society. Later in the year, shortly after Christmas, they presented, together with the Cwcns, a sophomore hop. Here the socialites danced in Thistle Hall to the scinli-lating rhythms of Bunny Berigan's orchestra at a dance that will be remembered as the first formal Sophomore Hop ever to be given at Carnegie.

Because these boys have shown promise of leadership and ability in their sophomore activities they act as aides of the Junior Class presidents in all social functions. During last year's social season the Della Skulls revolutionized Carnegie's tea dances by actually serving lea. At the “Tea Ball” each girl received her little tea bag; lollvpops were the refreshments at the Sucker Swing. Aside from these tea dances, the Delta Skull's largest project was the Junior Prom. An extensive advertising campaign led to the selecting of the Junior Snow Queen, and, on the night of the dance, Peggy Young stepped from her “igloo” to be crowned Queen of Winter Weather. Bobby Byrne's smooth music lent Just the right atmosphere to make the dance one of the most successful of the season. t 186 J 1au SiXfma 5beUa Tau Sigma Delta is the national honorary society which selects its members from the College of Fine Arts.

It is composed of girls who enjoyed their Girl Scout days so much that they wanted to join the Tech honorary and continue the fun. Led by their very able officers, Louise Potter, Ann Rea, and Petty Leister, this year’s group has sponsored a secondhand book exchange at the beginning of each semester, served lea to all the Margaret Morrison girls who eat lunch in Recreation Hall, and officiated at an information booth in Margaret Morrison on Kxhibition Night. The big events of the year, however, are the weekends the ex-Scouts spend camping out in typical Girl Scout fashion. Between the week-ends, one in the fall and the other in the spring, any number of picnics and hikes provide the good times for which the Kappa Chi Kappa girls are famous. Students from both Margaret Morrison and the Arts School who formerly have l een Girl Scouts and still possess an interest in their work arc eligible lor membership and are rushed in the spring of each year.

Wine , Amlinnr Alpha Phi Omega is a unique organization lor men on tlie campus in that it is neither a social nor an honorary Iralernitv. It is known as a service fraternity, one whose purpose on campus is to aid the students in any manner possible. This year, the members of Alpha Phi Omega published a pictorial campus map, which was sent to all incoming freshmen. During freshman week information booths arc operated at prominent places on the campus, in order that freshmen may get around better. During the year the fraternity operates a guide service, so that at any time the administration may have dependable persons to conduct out-of-town visitors through the school. Some of the members have taken it upon themselves to operate a second-hand book store, thus enabling hard-pressed students to obtain suitable books at reduced prices. Together with this, they have been able to run a textbook library for students not able to buy books. Seeing the need of a checking service at the Little Theater in Fine Arts, the members have this year found time to institute one. All of these many activities require time and men, and so this year the enrollment has been increased very much by a successful rushing season and initiation. The membership is limited, however, because only men who have at one time been Boy Scouts arc eligible. The organization is not one of compulsory service; the members spend only as much time on it as they feel they are able, and this they do gladly because their motto is still, Do a good turn daily.

The Carnegie chapter, which began as a local organization, the ClelT Club, was granted membership to the national group in 1928. Since then Carnegie’s music-men have proved their value to the school not only by their many musical recitals but also bv their plans to help students in the music department. In order to become a member of this honorary fraternity the student must have a keen interest in music and partiepate actively in one of Carnegie’s musical organizations. This year the sophomore men were pledged in October, and their pledge recital was one of the important events at this time. Perhaps one of the most interesting campaigns sponsored by Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia was the song contest promoted to give Tech a new victory song. Another major plan adopted was the Big Brother Movement to acquaint the freshman music students with their department. Besides helping freshmen in this way, the honorary held a smoker for new students. { 190J Thompaon, SUvkin. Hula, Scilcrt, C-xiiliiixtun, Wriifil. 2nS Ros: Ikrnnr.l. .Mall a Ary. .immprmnn. Coon.

The importance ot scholarship and culture cannot be overemphasized and it is up to the honorarics to lead in the development of these traits. In order to further this development and to promote the welfare of the individual student, the council is engaged in a study of educational methods. In the field of social events the council held an informal dance in Thistle Hall. This was the first dance held jointly by day school and night school honorarics, and this coopera liveness was favorably received by the student bodies.

It is this association with a variety ol individuals that makes membership in Gamma Iota such a broadening experience.

In spite of their numerous acliviles, however, the girls find plenty of time to attend social events: a hay-ride and a Christmas party were two early ones this year. At the Women’s Guild Dance the sorority had an unusual and profitable booth. The girls sold candy kisses, and one specially marked piece of candy entitled the lucky buyer to a kiss bestowed by one of the sorority members.

The pledge season culminated with the formal dance and initiation at the College Club. Varied social functions keep the Beta Pis busy. Sorority sponsors Polly Rowles Snyder and Miss Ruth Dennison were hostesses at three teas during the veai— one for the sorority's very active alumnae group; one for the Delta Tau Delta fraternity; and one for the men who helped the actives rush. Every day the girls meet at the Beanery for lunch, and once a month for a bridge party at the Carnegie Union. One of the most important social events of the year is the Spring Formal at Longue Vue Country Club. At the end of each year the girls give a banquet for the members who arc graduating, and in the summer the sorority members gel together for the annual house-party at Van Buren Point.

A. I., Guild, Scottic, Cwens, S. F. A., Intersorority Council, anti student government. I he alumnae, for whom the actives have a tea each year, support the sorority in all it undertakes, and have established a scholarship fund for the members. Though the Beetles are represented on the honor roll, their social calendar keeps them busy. There is never a dull moment with the Guild Dance, for which they provided a “Beetle Hot Dog Stand”, their Pledge Dance, Spring Formal, an annual tea for one of the Margaret Morrison sororities, and rushing season. Highlights of the 1941 rushing season were the tea at Dor O'Brien’s home, the formal dance at the Twentieth Century Club, and the Smorgasbord at Vida Ilirsch's home. After pledging, the freshman girls and the actives were invited to tea dances at the various fraternity houses. The Beetles started early to defend the cup they won last year at the Greek Sing and Swing. The Beetles are together at their own table in the beanery and at dinner meetings every other Tuesday during the school year. When summer comes they keep in touch with each other through bridge parties and picnics, and one of the best of vacations is the two weeks they spend together in a cottage on Lake Erie. W Row: Oyer.

Each summer the girls swim, sun, and serve stew at a cottage in Van Buren, New York. Thanks to this warm start, the girls begin the year with enthusiasm. After rushing season, the pledges are highly entertained overnight in a far away cabin, and here the new iris are shown the Gamma fun, laughter, and real sisterly spirit. Then a formal initiation officially brings in the new group of the current year. 1 his year there were numerous parties—formal and informal—Union and otherwise—a “Behind the Bars party to start exam week off right, a spaghetti dinner, a Peanut sister Christmas party, several skirt and sweater informal shin-digs—all just a few of the get-togethers. The gals are at home in formats, in shorts, in slacks or in bathing suits; and the sorority members figure prominently in every campus organization: the presidents of CWCA, WAA, Intersorority Council, Woman’s Dormitory Council, and the Sophomore Class to mention a few. An annual custom has been incorporated into the sorority. Between semesters, the winter sportsters pack skiis and skates, plan an outing somewhere, and spend several days away from it all, out in the snow. Last year it was a trip to Kane, Pa.; this year an outing on one of the member's farms; and next year it may lie Sun Valley. f 226] See the Birdie At the Oval Come Hither Smoothies Got a Sling Shot?

The last day of pledging found each of tlie pledges with a box of homemade candy for the actives' consumption. The formal initiation and dinner were held at the Twentieth Century Club. Then the Kappas went on through the year with plenty of emphasis on good times. There was a tea at the Union which the Alumnae held for them, and a Christmas party at the home of I � Loeffler where they exchanged gifts (live and ten variety). After Intersorority Formal, the next event was a barn party held by the pledge class. Sup| cr parties, picnics, a slumber party at a lodge in the country, and the Spring Formal completed the social season. The Kappas feel justly proud of their members this year. They include the Presidents of Margaret Morrison Senate, Mortar Board, and Cwens, the Secretary of Student Council, Vice President and Treasurer of Inter-sorority Council, and Women’s Editor of the Scottie. Plans for a vacation at Lake Erie are now under way. Soon they will be spending the days swimming, sunbathing, biking, and just plain relaxing; the perfect conclusion for a successful year. llinhlcy, Thompvin, IlmkriiUricr.

This year they are led by a group of capable officers and by their popular sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Simboli. Members of the sorority hold prominent places in scholastic and social affairs, in athletics and activities, on the campus. There arc Tri-Gams on Mortar Board, Women's Guild, and Sigma Alpha Iota; in class offices, and on publication staffs. In addition to their present activities, their past record includes winning the Greek Sing and Swing Cup and the Scholarship Cup. The Tri-Gam social calendar, made up of many enjoyable and memorable events, keeps the members busy throughout the year. There arc dinner meetings every other Thursday night, a Christmas party, teas, buffet suppers, and a spring formal. As a climax to the school year, the week spent at the sorority cottage on Lake Erie brings all the girls together for a grand time, with comradeship and mutual interests.

Yet each, after his few brief years of power, has disappeared, and been forgotten as life itself pushes ever forward to its own destiny. 1941, in the light of all history, is but an incident, as even the Indian Chief Nezahualcoyotl recognized of his own time live hundred years ago, in leaving us these words: “All things on earth have their term, and, in the most joyous career of their vanity and splendor, their strength fails and they sink into dust. All the round world is but a sepulchre; and there is nothing, which lives on its surface, that shall not be hidden anti entombed beneath it. Rivers, torrents, and streams move on to their destination; they rush onward to bury themselves in the deep bosom of the ocean. The things ol yesterday are no more today and the things of today will cease perhaps tomorrow. The cemetery is full of loathsome dust of bodies once quickened bv living souls, who occupied thrones, presided over assemblies, marshalled armies, subdued provinces, arrogated to themselves worship, were pulled up with vainglorious pomp and power and empire. “But these glories have all passed away,—with no other memorial ol their existence than the record on the page of the Chronicler. The great, the wise, the valiant, the beautiful— alas! where are they now?—they are mingled with the clod; and that which has befallen them shall happen to us, and to those that come after us. Yet let us take courage, illustrious nobles and chieftains, true friends and loyal subjects—let us aspire to that heaven, where all is eternal, and corruption cannot come.” The G ray Printing Company D u B o i s Falls Creek Printer of the 1941 Thistle rROM THE PRESS OF THE GRAY PRINTING CO..
