THE JUNIOR CLASS CARNEGIE NSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY. PITTSBURGH PENNSYLVANIA THE ’53 THISTLE brings you another edition of the campus annual. In the pages following, we have tried to bring you Life at Carnegie as we see it. We hope that we have been accurate describing the accounts .... for we have strived to make it so. In addition to exactness, we have also tried to be complete as possible in this recapitulation. This book is meant to be a log of events and memories that have happened during the course of the academic year. May it serve as a constant reminder of your da e at Tech..................... IN APPRECIATION OF 47 YEARS SERVICE. WE DEDICATE THE 53 THISTLE TO Our over-friendly, past Director of Athlot-ic . . . retired in 1952 after serving Tartan athlotics since 1905. As the governing body of the Board of Trustees, the Executive Committee meets monthly for the consideration of matters pertaining to the successful operation of Carnegie Tech. Upon recommendation of the President, the Committee makes all the appointments of the administration and acts upon matters of policy concerning the college. Although the student body seldom acknowledges their gratitude, we greatly appreciate the unpublicized achievements of the Board and the Executive Committee. BOARD OF TRUSTEES JAMES M. BOVARD.

WILSON WILLIAM P. WITHEROW Striding over campus with a big smile and a friendly gesture for every student. Dr. Warner would appear to be ... to an outsider ... a very popular ‘prof’ rather than a president of a high ranking technical school. In the few years that he has held this office, he has gained the admiration of his students. Yet while he possesses the likeable personality which makes him popular, he also has the dignity and ability required of a college president. A member of Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi. Alpha Chi Omega, and the American Chemical Society, he is extremely active in professional and honorary societies. Formerly the Head of the Department of Chemistry, he has written numerous technical papers in the fields of chemistry and electrochemistry. As President of Tech, he is instrumental in establishing school policies, strives to maintain our high scholastic reputation, and secures funds to keep the school in operation. Intelligence, leadership, and understanding are crammed into a dynamic man of short stature — Dr. John C. Warner, who will always be remembered by his students as . . . ELLIOTT DUNLAP SMITH. Provost As a tall building has strong girders, Carnegie Tech has its administration to serve as a framework upon which the college is maintained. The many duties ol this governing body begin even before the student comes to Tech. By publishing bulletins and pamphlets, it first interests the prospective student in attending Tech. Then begin the numerous tasks which arc necessary for the efficient functioning of the college, awarding ol scholarships and loans, supervision of undergraduate and graduate curricula, control of the budget, direction of libraries, et cetera. Throughout the undergrad’s four years, the administration sees that he becomes cjuite familiar with the famed Carnegie Plan. Then when the senior is ready to leave, the administration helps him provide for a sound future by finding him a job suited to his likes and abilities. Such is a very brief resume of a very necessary part of Carnegie Tech. LAWRENCE H. MILLER Assistant Controller—Operations GEORGE E. GERE Assistant Controller—Finance DOUGLAS F. MINER.

Doan of Man Whether in Ski bo, on the Cut, or in his office, Ben David is one of the few people on campus who can address by name almost every person he meets. The onetime Ohio State dean is our Dean of Men who applies his versatility in his consideration of financial, academic, social or personal problems of the student. This in addition to the administration of part-time jobs for students and the co-ordination of extra-curricular activities helps keep Dean David one of the busiest men on campus. JOAN M. SCHAEFER, Dean of Women Joan Schaefer left our campus in December to join her husband at the University of Southern California. Her quiet friendliness resulted in a closeness with the students. The many contacts and her charming personality will long be remembered by all. NANCY O. DICKINSON, Acting Dean of Women In December Nancy Dickinson accepted the position of Dean of Women. Being well known on campus, she renewed many old acquaintances and immediately began her duties as Dean. Through her interest in our problems and her previous cx| eriencc with Tech students Mrs. Dickinson successfully completed the spring semester as Acting Dean of Women.

It is financially responsible for all organizations except for independent groups and must approve all all-school functions, both financially and as to date on the social calendar. Student Council must authorize and supervise all drives for funds for special purposes; establish school spirit, custom, and tradition; supervise freshman regulations and orientation. This year Student Council undertook three special projects in addition to its normal duties — the Intra-School Publicity Com. mittce was established, a Pep Squad was formed, and the Constitution was amended to coincide with common practice anti to form a better representation of the active student body. Aside from these special projects the group carried on many designated activities — organized a pep rally before the Homecoming game; set a goal and then solicited through the classes to collect money for the Campus Chest; publicized the Blood Bank and scheduled donors; publicized and sponsored the Chest X-ray mobile and allocated funds for student activities. Through these accomplishments, Student Council proved to the Tartan the need for such a student government organization on Tech’s campus. FALL OFFICERS Pret. V. Pret. Treat. Sec. Am' Sec.

GAYE DAMICH Student government in Carnegie Tech's evening school is conducted by a group of interested students who arc appointed to represent their fellow evening students either by popular election or ap| ointed, as provided in the Constitution of the Evening Student Council. The purpose of this organization is to induce interest in extra-curricular activities, promote harmony between the organizations on the campus, and to present the problems and viewpoints of the students to the administration. Council also endeavors to bring about a better understanding of the problems in which the students and the administration are mutually interested. To stimulate outstanding scholarship, personal achievement and participation in extra-curricular activities, Council has established the Evening School Achievement Award. This award is given to the student graduating from evening school each year who most nearly fulfills these requirements. The Thomas S. Baker Memorial Scholarship, established through the interest of Evening Student Council, is awarded annually to an undergraduate student in evening classes on the basis of high scholastic standing for the preceding year with special consideration being given for participation in extra-curricular activities.

Each year a welcoming party is sponsored on the first day of the arrival of freshman students to acquaint them with their governing hotly and the dorm rules. An open house is sponsored at Homecoming. The first project was to install cookie, candy, and beverage vending machines in the basement of the dorm and a coin-changer at the main desk. Another important addition in the dorm was the television set in the lounge. Plans were drawn up to finish the recreation room which will be completed in the future. Pins were also purchased for Council members in recognition for their service. WOMEN’S DORM COUNCIL OFFICERS President Vice President Sec-Trees. {Fell) Soc-Trees.

September was highlighted by Mortar Board's participation in the orientation program by ushering at the. Dean’s Reception and holding a tea for transfers and a special assembly for freshmen. At the dedication of the Industrial Administration Building the black-suited Mortar Boards were aides. Homecoming Weekend proved a challenging responsibility successfully mastered and one of the most rewarding experiences of the year. A social get-together where Carnegie Tech served as host to Pitt Mortar Boards, a farewell party for Mrs. Schaefer, and a Christmas party for the girls at the Home of the Good Shepherd carried the activities up to Christmas vacation. The Women’s Clan Scholarship Bridge and Chapeau Parade afforded Mortar Board the opportunity in February again to be aides. Then in March the organization gave its own dessert bridge for appropriating funds to award a scholarship to a deserving woman. The Smarty Party for junior women was also a March event. Helping ODK with Spring Carnival and having a final initiation luncheon in May completed the honorary's busy year and prepared the way for the succeeding chapter. MORTAR Pre . NANCY RAUSCH BOARD See.

Pi Delta Epsilon, as a journalistic honorary, has as its further aim the recognition and development of outstanding undergraduate journalists. The Carnegie Tech Chapter strives to provide good understanding and spirit of cooperation between the various publications on campus. Keeping this goal in mind Pi Delta Epsilon continues its initiated publications forum at which the major officers of the Tarlan, Scot, Thistle, and Technical discuss and present solutions to joint problems of management and operation. The need for close cooperation has long been felt on Tech's campus, and Pi Della Epsilon believes the forum is a great stride toward this goal. At Carnegie Day each year Pi Delta Epsilon calls to its ranks students who have performed outstandingly on the various publications. Through this call those people who have worked tirelessly and without recognition on publications are honored for their efforts. Thus Pi Delta Epsilon serves both to link campus groups and to further advancement in journalism. ROW 4: R. Ponxo. J. Galand, W. Galbraith, J. Kaplan, P. Weber ROW 3: A. Dilanni. Prof. Poarson, W.

On the Tech campus, within the Department, AIGA presents to the students examples of good typography and design. This is accomplished through the use of showcases in which the work is exhibited. To further the advancement of printers, the organization shows movies, too, which help tic in practical work with information gained in the classroom. L. to R.: E. Wildhaber. D. Wildmen. S. Rotenberg. G. Carl AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS This year the Tech campus added to its organizations the American Institute of Architecture. Under the guidance of its charter officers the group was busy trying to get a good start in setting themselves up as a stable organization. Ambition ran high as they started off—plans were made for a student lounge (not yet materialized), student exhibits were sponsored on and off campus, and much cooperative work was handled with the A. I. A. group downtown. To benefit its members A. I. A. showed movies and sponsored informal talks, some of which included Shadow Light,” “Pittsburgh’s Gateway,” and Sculpture in Architecture.” Aside from these get-togethers A. I. A. held many social events—the first banquet was held at the Shcarton Hotel with Philip Johnstone as guest speaker, and a second was held at the Roosevelt Hotel at which the annual A. I. A. award was presented to Alan Rider. Douglas Hashill, editor of Architectural Forum, was guest speaker and proved very interesting as well as entertaining. Numerous charette parties” in various fraternity houses and at the Castle, along with picnics at North and South Parks, were outstanding social affairs this year. All other meetings were conducted at the Union, Carnegie Inn, or in the Department’s lecture hall. With the newly elected officers, this organization is sure to go far in making progress.

At our first meeting we had a talk on the growth of Home Economics at Carnegie Tech from early times to the present. Miss Crow, head of the Home Economics Department. told us of some of the interesting and varied jobs our graduates are doing. To continue our program, we had a U. N. Celebration. This included a display of costumes and articles from different countries, and the V. iV. Cook Hook was on sale. The climax of the day was a starvation dinner, the proceeds from which went to a needy cause. Along with our theme we also had a civil defense program. Because we felt this would be valuable to the whole school, we invited all the students of M.M.C.C. Of course one of the highlights of the year was our annual Christmas Dinner. Also during the Christmas season, we sold fruit cakes. Part of the proceeds from this project will be given to charity. METALS CLUB OFFICERS Pret. JOHN BUTLER S«c. TONY GINNETTI T ch. Chr.

The Metals Club is a departmental organization composed of the students in the Department of Metallurgical Engineering. The chief aim of the club is to promote social intercourse among the Metallurgy students. Freely translated this means, Let’s have a technical talk, and then take the speaker, instructors, and ourselves downstairs for refreshments. (Note: The refreshment period lasts from about 9:30 until—who knows? Each spring the club holds a picnic at South Park or some other similar location. Refreshments— soft drinks too—and various hard fought softball games (won by such scores 30-29) highlight this outing where relaxation is the key word for instructors and students alike. These metallurgy students speak through a monthly publication. The Ladle, which they write and manage themselves. Since the paper is supported by alumni, the chief aim of the staff is to make it of interest to them by including a section called alumni news. Also incorporated in The sidle arc articles on research, summaries of talks given at Metals Club meetings, | crsonal stories about some of the instructors, humorous articles, and many other things of interest to students, instructors, and alumni. Although the publication still exists in mimeographed form, hopes remain high lor a printed state soon-alumni willing. CHEMISTS’ CLUB OFFICERS Preiident ED PREVIC Vic.

WILLIAM JOHNS Publicity Mgr. TOM WARNER The Kilties returning for the 1952-1953 season found that during the summer their director, Prof. William A. Schaefer, had accepted a similar position at the University of Southern California. The loss of the little man with the vibrant personality” was felt by each and every member, for it was he who built the band from a mere shadow of its present strength to one of the best collegiate aggregations in the country. Prof. Robert B. Cantrick, who replaced Mr. Schaefer, is a graduate, cum laude, of the University of Rochester where he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. He founded and for three years directed the Greenville South Carolina Symphony Orchestra and more recently served as apprentice conductor of the Cleveland Symphony. He came to Tech from Furman where he served as an assistant professor of music and band director. The band was quickly reorganized and under Prof. Cantrick's direction began its season with the traditional lawn concert during Freshman Week. With the advent of the football season attention was quickly focused upon marching formation. A highlight ol the marching band season was the performance of the Scotch Ballet”, an exhibition of precision marching of the drum and bugle corps type. The Kilties followed the team to every game this year, and each was made more colorful by their cheers and the Kiltie chorus. With the end of football season concert practice began in earnest. The winter concert, February 13, featured the Pittsburgh premier ol “Music for a Festival, a composition commissioned for the Festival of Britain. Also of interest was “Polka and Fugue” frbm Schwand’s Bagpiper” which found harp, organ and bagpipes being incorporated into the regular concert band. 'I'hc spring concert was highlighted by another Pittsburgh first, the performance of Arnold Schoenberg's “Theme and Variations Opus 43A.” In addition to these regular Carnegie Hall concerts the band visited West View, Shaler, and Penn Township high schools, while the bagpipe corps, under the direction of Lew Davidson represented the Kilties at numerous civic events. That the Kilties in their authentic Cameron of Erraclu plaid are in great demand is exemplified by their thirty-nine performances throughout the school year. R08ERT B.

With the main emphasis on debating, the club also sponsors extemporaneous, oratorical, dramatic, and other forms of forensic work. At the beginning of the season. Tech cooperates with Pitt, Duquesnc, Ml. Mercy, and other colleges in the area in conducting a series of tournaments to give all tie-bators, but particularly beginners, a chance to become acquainted with the topic anti either acquire or brush up on the techniques of inter collegiate tlebatc. Later in the season the club sent teams to schools all over the eastern part of the country to debate in some ol the more important tournaments. During the 1952-8 season teams were sent to Lehigh. Penn State, Washington, D.C., Howling Green, and to Frcdricksburg, Va. for the Grand National Tournament. As the last event of the 1952 season, Tech sponsored its second annual Carnegie Tartan Debate Tournament. Coming at the end of the school year when all teams have had at least a year's experience, this tournament always provides keen competition and was again a great success. NEWMAN CLUB As the Catholic student organization affiliated with national and city intercollegiate federations, the Newman ( lub reaches students at all levels. This year marked the expansion and development of Newman Club activities along its four main lines: educational, religious, social, and service. New discussion groups were organized: religious activity was increased with group Communion, retreats, daily rosary: and an extensive social schedule was carried out for Catholic recreation on campus and cilywide levels. Some of the school's strongest teams raised the Newman name high in intramural s|x rts. The social work activity of the campus St. Vincent dc Paid Society, literature distribution and cooperation in all-school endeavors, were a few of the many services. L. to R.: J. Ryan. P. Sieffart.

In order to interpret more effectively the purpose of the Christian Association on the campus, the program of the year was divided into four areas: Christian Faith and Heritage, Personal and Campus Affairs, World Rclatedness, and Social Responsibility. Each member of the YWCA chose one of the four commissions in accordance with her interests. These small groups met for discussion and carried out a major project-such as painting the auditorium of a nearby charity home.

Officers of Sigma Delta Phi were elected in February and assumed office the following month. The monthly business meetings proved both interesting and educational. President Charles Keller, in keeping with the custom of the fraternity, arranged to have several of the members speak to the group about their hobbies or anything they believed to be interesting to the men. The selected topics ranged from hobbies to movies regarding their daily jobs, and, following each lecture, invigorating discussion resulted. In February the fraternity celebrated its 12th anniversary with a banquet at the Vogue Terrace. At this time a washer, donated by Westinghouse, was presented as a door prize—hilarious laughter arose when the group saw the prized iron washer. Socially, too. the fraternity is active, for each month a social is held at the Carnegie Union, in which wives and girl friends also participate. The main social event of the year was the Christmas Party. To add to the merriment, Santa Claus distributed dollar gifts furnished by the men and women. .Some mishaps did occur, however, as one of the fellows received a bottle of perfume and one of the women, a shaving kit.

The group was organized in 1947, and since that time it has ratified its constitution and has been recognized by both Evening Student Council and the administration of Carnegie Institute of Technology. The sorority has always been cognizant of the need for extra-curricular activities for evening students, but this year to encourage more members to participate in social functions and to assist Evening Student Council, a program was inaugurated to recognize individual members who sup-jxjrt such activities. On October 13 a choral group was organized under the direction of Lydia Liston, and in December a Christmas party lor orphans proved to be very successful. The entertainment included a puppet show and songs by the Phi Gamma Pi choral group. Excess funds raised for these events were credited to the sorority’s scholarship fund.

The objectives of Phi Nu are still the same: to promote sociability and good fellowship among evening students anti to provide op|x rtunitics for meeting sot ially both on and off the campus. Through the many years necessary for completion of an evening school course of education. Phi Nu offers many interesting activities to encourage participation in the social life of the campus. In this rcs| cct, Phi Nu holds at least one social affair every month during the school year, such as Monte Carlo night, theater parties, stjuarc dances, and the initiation banquet. In addition, there arc picnics and corn roasts which are held during the summer months. Phi Nu also has a scholarship fund to aid students of the evening classes. It was established in 1915 as the George H. Follows Memorial Scholarship Fund, and the first award of a half-time scholarship was given in 1951 at the thirty-fifth anniversary meeting. STANDING: S.

These nights of practice and perfecting of the skills lead to the production and presentation of a water ballet. Work for the staging of the show begins immediately after fall tryouts. The coordination of the skills into synchronized numbers, and adaptation of these to music, the designing of sets, and the selling of tickets are only a few of the sideline jobs undertaken by the swimmers. By the time all this is well underhand spring has arrived and the time for the ballet has come. This year the theme was “Coronation Ballet” climaxed by the crowning of the queen.

The contest served as a means of motivation to interest students and as publicity for the club by demonstrating what it can do for the individual. L. to R.: R. Haring. K. Winiton INTERNATIONAL CLUB To further better international relationships on Tech’s campus, the International Club has held weekly lunch meetings in the Morewood Gardens Cafeteria, at which times the group heard many highly interesting speakers. The Club's program also included two annual picnics (one each semester), a Christmas dinner on December 14, which was highlighted by carol singing and the collecting of books for students in foreign countries. To increase the group's education of our country, visits were made to Washington, D. C. and Niagara Falls. According to Dr. Massoud Simnad there are about 20 countries represented in the organization, but he believes that the relative smallness in the number of American students participating in the activities is the only drawback. In view of the importance of America's participation in world affairs this is something sad to reflect upon. Students at Tech could accomplish much by becoming active in an organization with such a great motive. Thanks to Mr. Rollin V.

Still caught between the Scylla of administration censorship and the Charybdis of student desire, the indomitable Scot rose once more from its grave. An unexpectedly successful drive for personnel in the fall brought revitalizing new blood to the staff. Bolstered by an equally unanticipated response from the advertisers, the Scot rolled forward with new hope. Under the editorship of Bim Seibert and the adept financing of business manager Dutch Good, the first issue hit the stands in November. Technically and artistically surpassing all previous issues, the fall Scot succeeded in further reducing the age-old debt incurred by the ailing Scottie. With Phil Drew now at the helm, and George Farneth keeping the books, the second issue ap|x. arcd in March this time a parody on Life magazine. The traditional but untraditionally prudish Spring Carnival issue completed the Scot’s banner season. .By reducing the number of issues to three, the magazine held down costs, increased circulation, and improved the quality of writing and artwork. With the reputation of the Scottie one year further into the past, it is hoped that the new Scot will be able to continue and further augment its present high-quality staff, with a corresponding increase in quality and circulation.

Although past Tuvian staffs have complained of “lack of sensationalism in the news, the 1952-1953 journalists managed to present a little of the unusual in their news stories and editorials. In fact, some questions debated in the Tartan caused city-wide concern and campus-wide arguments. For example: within a few hours after the issue containing the FPHA housing story, city dailies were on-the-s|� ot for a scoop” story. A big year for Tech likewise means a big year for the reporters who are covering the daily activities of the school. This year, signs of the college’s expansion dotted Tartan first pages. Sharing the limelight with Spring Carnival and Homecoming were the plans for a new men’s dorm, the establishment ol the School of Printing Management, the opening of SIA, and the appointment of Tech’s first vice-president. A weekly tabloid, the Tartan came to life each Friday evening as news editor and reporters took over the third floor of Carnegie Union. News stories were collected and written: Editor Sonnenberg, chewing on a jxncil, would dash off an editorial; business manager Stan Goldstein supervised advertising lay-out. Sometime late in the night, a staff member would run copy,” and the Tartan would go to press. With more writing, copyreading, proofing, and lay out on Sunday afternoon, the final copy went to the printers Sunday night. Finishing touches on Monday, presses rolling Monday night—the Tartan hit the stands Tuesday afternoon. As students read the week’s news, the staff was busy planning the next issue. ROW 3: W.

Editor-In-Chief Ending the I7ih year as an undergraduate technical magazine, the Carnegie Technical has again been acclaimed as one of the best student technical journals in the country. This year, as in the past, the Technical has included two feature articles in addition to the regular engineering material. Techspcrts” is designed to arouse student interest in unusual or difficult engineering problems, whereas the Technicalities” column endeavors to keep its readers posted on current developments in the various engineering fields. This year the combination of representative engineering subject material and artistic talent has added distinction to the Technical's covers. The policy of the 'Technical has been to provide an outlet for undergraduate technical writings, and to promote better understanding of engineering material by non-tcchni-cal people. In keeping with this policy the Technical has published articles from every department of the school as well as articles on social and managerial problems. The Carnegie Technical has achieved this success under capable staffs and has earned a record ol which students may be justifiably proud. COORDINATION Editorial Staff get together.

Whitmyre The '53 Thistle has the distinction of being the first edition to come out in September instead of the usual publication date of May. After much discussion, the step was taken. Only time will tell if such a move was advisable. Other changes will be more obvious as you browse through your annual, some were successful while others ....?? But it all goes in making the ’53 Thistle what it is. And now for those who arc responsible for the ’53 Thistle .... we have Elmer Veres, succeeding Robert Levy, came up from the post of Advertising Manager to assume the duties of Editor. He was assisted by Ken Haynes who took up the position of Associate Editor while retaining his sports-editorship. Costa George was in charge of the tremendous job of coordinating the photography schedule. Jim Plugge and Jim Robertson, both freshmen, picked up the loose ends of the candids department halfway through the year after Tom Higgins found it necessary to resign. Nancy Whitmyre handled the senior section job well though occasional lack of senior cooperation made her task a difficult one. Likewise, Marguerite Barberie had her hands full with fraternity and sorority members (especially with the fraternities). Mary Lou Maurhoff and Rita O'Hara worked right along with their staff in gathering copy for the 312 pages, keeping Audrey Companion busy checking and rejecting material. We can not overlook the work ol Ted Trinkaus and his staff. (The rust, ochre, and evening blue keeps us from overlooking!) Ted, him- PUBLICATIONS LEADING QUESTION •'Who' in charg h r ? self, designed the cover and introduction pages, set the theme of the hook, and was instrumental in many decisions pertaining to the visual sensations. Mis art staff responsible for the layouts was assisted by John Scoullcr in technical matters. John succeeded George Sebestyen when the latter was forced to resign early in the year due to personal matters. Little Gave Damich certainly earned mention for the many hours of work she unselfishly contributed. Only her enthusiasm kept her from needing No-Doz Awakeners when the early hours rolled around. Other important ends were taken care of by Kill Hurley and Dan Byers to assure a complete book. And of course, I can not forget to mention the collaboration of John McKaughcr and Phil Uridge in the financial success of this eleven thousand dollar production. Unfortunately, lack of space prevents a complete coverage of students who have contributed to this book. It is their cooperation, supporting the staff mentioned above, that makes yearbooks possible. It has been said (with some slight variation) that all work and no play, makes Jack and Jill dull people.” So........Jack and Jill went down the hill and had a banquet. And a good banquet it was. For the second consecutive year it conflicted with Sorority Campaign Week which prevented many from attending. In spite of this, forty-seven members and guests marched down to the Colonial Room in Hotel Webster Hall to attend one of the most successful banquets of the year at Tech. The social committee, consisting of John Scoullcr and Ken Haynes, certainly deserves credit for the success of the affair. Ken acted as emcee and started off the evening with a toast. After all had feasted. Dean David gave an address to end all addresses. When first approached by the committee, the Dean asked what he should speak about. The committee replied, tell jokes. He surprised them and did just that! Many of the humorous tales had s| ecial meaning, however, and much could be learned from the moral of the story. John McNaughcr introduced the stall.........and Ken Haynes, as future Editor, introduced the succeeding staff. Al Plant entertained all with his amusing magician act using Thistle-staffers as his victims. Mr. Edward McDonald, the Grand Executive Secretary-Treasurer of Pi Delta Epsilon, followed with a few choice words of advice to the journalists. As a climax ol the evening, the editor presented trophies to the Queen and her court. Lynn Reed. Rebcca Reiter, Suzi Straits, and Harriet Treon made a beautiful background for the lovely Thistle Queen, Mary Ann Benedict. An anti-climax occurred when a most generous staff presented its grateful editor with a gift. The presentation was made by John Scoullcr. The evening then came to an end and everyone was happy .... (especially the editor). Before the Thistle log is closed, mention should be made of those persons outside the immediate staff who donated their services to this publication. Katherine Troxell and Stan March of the Department of Public Relations, have been most willing to help whenever we asked them. Charles Nelson has contributed special photographs in time of great need. The Photo Reflex Studio supplied the senior portraits and many of the candids. Mary, Peggy, Betty, and Mr. McTamney of the Studio spent many extra hours in making our job an easier one, for which we are forever grateful. We can not forget Dick Ebbitt, also of the Reflex Studio, who came out to our campus to take pictures on a moment's notice. Prolessor Parshall has been a tremendous help in matters pertaining to the Administration section. Many other professors (a list too long to mention here) have also supplied information. Thanks . . . profs! Our cover that we are very proud of, comes to us from S. K. Smith Company through Ralph Benz. And at last......but not least, we give very special credit to our printer . . . The Hurley Company, Incorjjor-ated .... and Mr. Wallace Hurley, Sr. They have been more than patient with us and have given us sj ecial consideration in many instances. It has been enjoyable to work with them in publishing this annual .............And so be it....... PUBLICATIONS we remember L ALFRED M. CERRITO of Hoboken, New Jersey, died February 28, 11)58 ol a virus attack. Al, a junior Industrial Management student, was quite active in campus activities. He played varsity basketball lor two years and was a member of the Varsity C” Club, the Newman Club, and the YMCA. As a member of Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity, lie participated in intramural athletics and served as social chairman. He will be missed by his many friends. PANHEL OFFICERS Prat. Sac. Ruth Chr. Aitt.

Panhel’s purpose is to aid in maintaining a high standard of sorority life and fostering good inter sorority relations. This year Panhel instituted a new rush system. According to the new regulations second semester freshmen, rather than first semester sophomores, were eligible for rushing. A plan for open bidding was begun in April and is to have a trial period of one year. Thus far both plans are believed to be successful. In May the Panhellenic Workshop held its annual get-together at the Union. The discussions included such topics as: evaluation of the new rush system, the place of Panhel on campus; and parliamentary procedure at sorority meetings. A panel of speakers presented the various topics and informal discussions followed. Panhel’s social program for the year included events such as the Panhellenic Formal, Greek Sing and Swing, Queen Campaign and Carnival Competition. Raising money for the Panhel Scholarship, supporting Junior Panhel, Tag Day for Childrens’ Home were among the many services sponsored by the Panhellenic Council. In the past year the Council feels that it has become a stronger group on campus, and is a very important part of sorority life. CFP OFFICERS Pres. AL OE VIDO V. Pros. TOM NATHAN Soc.

In keeping with its purpose of maintaining a high standard of fraternity conduct and fostering good inter-fraternity relations, council carried on such actives as the controlled freshman orientation and rrish week program, CFP formal, and Greek Sing and Swing, in addition to any problems which came up among the individual fraternities. Work was commenced on the structural setup of a Greek Week in which the fraternities would collaborate in aiding each other and the community. The Pledge Council continued their system of exchange-dinners and performed many services during the year. The CFP Court of Justice has jurisdiction over all cases involving violations by fraternities of Council or Carnegie Tech regulations. The council attempts to maintain a high scholastic record through the awarding of trophies to fraternities and pledge classes who have maintained high scholastic averages over the preceding year. Also, the CFP Pledge Council plans the Homecoming Pep Rally at which each pledge class presents an original cheer. By carrying on such activities the Council hopes, through common action, to promote the interests of its members, the student body, and Carnegie Tech. STANDING: B. Hurd. J. Weihl. L. Cohen, J.

PLEDGES D. Chcrrington L. Hamilton M. Humphreys P. Krupp N. Rcarick F. Woavor ATHLETICS Frank Melvin (Mel) Cratslcy, basketball coach and former athletic star, became the Director of Athletics on July 1, 1952 when Clarence (Buddy) Overend, who was Director of Athletics for 29 years, retired. The former basketball great has been coach of the Carnegie hardwood quintet since 1919, when he replaced Bill Donahue. The big, well-built coach has developed some very respectable teams in his four years as coach. In addition to his new duties he will continue as basketball coach. The thirty-four year old Cratslcy had a brilliant athletic career at Tech. From 19.% to 1939 he was a court star under Coach Max Hannum, teaming with Bob Stark to bring home the Eastern Collegiate basketball championships, against such formidable opposition as Temple, Georgetown, Duquesnc, Penn State, West Virginia and Pitt. In the 1938-1939 season, Cratslcy netted 34 points against West Virginia, a Carnegie scoring record until this year when Tom Craig equalled it in the game against Indiana State Teachers. In the fall, he was an outstanding end on Bill Kerns’ great football squads. He was a member of the famed Carnegie Sugar Bowl team of 1938— the same year which the team brought home the Lambert Trophy, emblematic of the Eastern Collegiate football champions. Although Mel Cratslcy played when Tech was big time,” he entertains no ambitions of taking the school back into the bigger sports bracket. However, he would like to see Carnegie play some schools of better caliber but still maintain the athletic policy adopted in 1937 under the late President Robert E. Doherty. A native of Clenwillard, Pa., Cratslcy graduated from Findlay High School, Imperial, in 1935. He received a bachelor of science degree in Mechanical Engineering from Carnegie in 1940. After graduation, he worked two years as a foreman at Carnegic-IUinois Steel Corporation (1940-42), then served as a Lieutenant in the U. S. Navy-in the Pacific. Upon completion of his naval duties, he returned to Carnegic-IUinois in 1946 as Assistant to the Superintendent of the Carrie Furnaces, and remained there until 1949. After serving as assistant basketball coach during the 1947-48 seasons, he became head coach at the beginning of the fall semester of 1949. The same year, he earned a teacher's certificate from Tech and in 1950 was appointed assistant head of the Bureau of Placements. He gave up his job in Placements upon assuming his new duties as Director of Athletics. MEL CRATSLEY, Director of Athletic ' V , vV vvv 'V m eVaAs � W v - v if . J5rr McKane. .

Trainar Since Dr. Eddie Baker took over the head coaching job of football in 1949, Tech has seen its teams rise to pre-war heights—they arc now winning instead of losing. In each of the last four years Dr. Baker's teams have had winning records. 1953s graduating class will be the first in a long time to have experienced four years of winning teams. From 1949 to 1952 the records have been 4-3-1, 7-1, 6-2, and this year's 4-3. In the inaugural game of the season, the Tartans were again jinxed by the Vulcans from California State Teachers. The Tech team was plagued by fumbles as they lost to the Teachers 27-21. Tech fumbled four times with three of the mis-cucs being turned into touchdowns. Little All-American Elmo Natali scored three of the touchdowns for the Vulcans and ripped the Tech line to shreds. Tom Craig scored two of Tech's three touchdowns in the only highlight for Tech. Tech traveled to Bethany for their next encounter where they met the Bisons of Bethany and easily smothered them 27-12. The Clansmen scored the first time they had the ball on a 90-yard march. Freshman Byron Eisamcn was the star of the afternoon as he bit off chunks of yardage through the middle of the line and scored two Tech touchdowns. (� uy Carricato also contributed two tallies. Scoring twenty points in the fourth quarter, the Skibo-men romped over the Blue Jays of Johns Hopkins 40-6. The game was featured by many fumbles — a W 4 J GIVES TECH TROUBLE... H yl Quit shovin' total of fifteen for the two teams—, seven interceptions, and sturdy line defense on the part of Tech. The Tartans traveled to Meadvillc to play Allegheny. It was a sad Homecoming for Allegheny alumni as Tech won the game 19 0. All three touchdowns were scored in the second period. It marked Tech’s twelfth victory against five defeats in the series with Allegheny started back in 1906. The Hilltoppers have not been able to earn a win since 19H. The team won its fourth straight game as it scored a brilliant 10 0 triumph over Case. Many Tech alumni enjoyed an exciting Homecoming. With a minute to go in the first quarter, Gil Disscn kicked a field goal which was all that Tech needed. It marked the third straight victory over the Roughriders who still hold a 9-8 edge in the interstate series. The season ended on a blue note as the Tartans lost their last two games. Tech's record of four straight victories and the reputation of its defensive platoon both came to an end as Washington and Jefferson upset Tech 35-20. Both Tom Craig of Tech and Art Massaro of W J turned in sterling performances as w ft they each scored three touchdowns. However Tech was never out of the game until the last few minutes. Twelve seniors ended their college playing career at Lehigh. These men: Irv Schectcr, Bill Pakan, Ray Shermcycr, Ray Rubin, Tom Craig, Gil Dissen, Jim Vodcnichar, Joe Galanda, Clyde Stahle, Bob Reuthcr, John Kaye, and Charles Fuellgraf will long be remembered in Tech football circles. Against a heavier, rougher squad of Engineers at Lehigh the Plaid made an even game of it until the last quarter when the opposition turned on the pressure and scored two touchdowns to beat Tech 26-6. In the opening minutes of the fourth quarter Tech gained its only score as Tom Craig made a sensational catch of a pass from Ed Miller. Craig snatched the pigskin when he was almost out of bounds but recovered his balance and dashed on the remaining ten yards for the Clan score. Although Tech lost its top men by graduation, unusual fighting spirit has dominated the spring practice. With the single platoon system back in effect, Tech will have a better winning chance, since they lack manpower. During spring practice the Tcchites downed the Pitt JV twice by scores of 19-6 and 13-6. THE WORD......... Make ten touchdown or gat off this field.

The workhorses of the campaign were co-captains Kay Thompson and Tom Craig with an assist from Ed Pottmeyer. The team was young and aggressive with Coach Mel Cratslcy relying most on freshmen and sophomores. The possibility of good teams for the next few years is very promising with the young talent which showed up this year. The Tech hoopsters began the season by downing a weak Steubenville team. After losing to Waynesburg and romping over Bethany — a game in which Kay Thompson scored 28 points — the Tartans went on an eight game losing streak. This included losses to nationally ranked teams such as Duquesne, Penn State, and Pitt. On February 25 Tom Craig tied Coach Mel Cratsley's scoring record of 34 points in one game as Tech easily downed Indiana State Teachers, 91-45. This total score of 91 points broke the Tech scoring record of 79 set last year. ROW 3: J. Boyd. J. Bracken. N. Ackermann, W. Hyam . Mgr. R. Gorman ROW 2: Coach M. Cratiloy, P. Jotko, W. McGinnii, R.

The freshman hoopsters of Tech first classmen play teams of approximately their strength, and their games arc usually spirited and exciting. This year’s squad had a record of 9-8, an average record, but was a better team than the record shows. Jim Boyd and Dick Fieler were standout stars during the season. However the team was hampered by the loss of high-scoring Jim Boyd half way through the season and as a result the team lost some close games. Probably the most exciting and spectacular game was that played with Indiana State Teachers Freshmen at Tech. The teams played on almost equal terms during the whole game. Going into the last minute of play Tech was losing 19-51 but a basket tied up the score at 51-51. The ball changed hands several times in a short period and it looked as though there would have to be an overtime period. However, with one second left a desperation heave was made by one of the Indiana players from three-quarters of a court away. The ball took wings and went through the hoop to give the State Teachers Freshmen a 53-51 victory. Other highlights of the season were the wins over the Pitt Freshmen and the Geneva Reserves. The prospects for the varsity look good with a young, aggressive and spirited team looming for next year. STANDING: R. Fieler. J. Bracken, D. Saxton, H. Mandel. Coach M. Theodore KNEELING: G.

This year is the second undefeated season in a row for the Tech harriers. Captain Bob Carman was the number one man but was unable to run in some of the meets due to a torn tendon in his ankle. In the other matches he was a little hampered by bandages but still was able to come through with flying colors. In the first meet against the Jeannette Harriers, Captain Carman copped first place and led the Tartans to an easy victory 21-34 (lowest score wins). Although Carman ran second for the first half of the course, he put on a hard driving finish to nose out his competitor by 11 seconds. Despite the absence of Bob Carman in the second meet, the Tartans easily downed Geneva by placing 7 out of 10 men. The score was 18-37. The harriers then traveled to Bethany to meet the Bisons in what was expected to be a tough meet but Tech easily handed them a 21-34 setback. The most unusual meet of the season was the Case meet in which the Tech team followed a share the wealth program with a five way lie for lirst place. The spoilers were Bob Carman, Mai Gillies, A1 Hayes, Roger Coyle, and Arnie Olds. Tech again took seven of the ten places. Tech continued their winning ways by defeating Slippery Rock 19-41 and in a close meet downing Westminster 27-28. Although Tech did beat Westminster they found them a little too tough in the Tri-State Class li championship meet where Westminster took away the title from 'I'ech, who had won it the previous year. Bob Carman suffered a leg injury during the running of the meet and did not finish the race. This put the squad at a definite disadvantage: however, they did manage to take second place.

The swimmers had a season record of ten victories and take into next year’s com-petition a string of twelve straight victories. Standout stars on this year’s team were Captain Dick Kramer, Grey Duncan, Dan Guz and Bob Weddell. In the first home meet the Tartans got off to an impressive start by swamping Indiana State Teachers 71-13. The mermen next traveled to Slippery Rock where they won 48-36. At Meadville, Tech continued its winning ways by downing Allegheny 41-34. Dan Guz turned in victories in the 60-yard freestyle and was a member of the 400-yard freestyle relay while Dick Kramer won the 100-yard freestyle and anchored the 300-yard medley relay. Tech's flying fishes next met usually tough Kent State and handed them a 53-31 setback. The swim team also handled Westminster easily with a 48-27 victory. The turning j oint of the season was the trip to Case and Oberlin on consecutive days. Both teams were feared but Tech beat them both by identical scores of 47-37. It was the first time in twelve years that Tech had beaten Oberlin. Tech had little trouble remaining in downing Washington Jefferson, Grove City and Fenn. The big event of the season was the Pcnn-Ohio Meet held in the Tech pool. Tech’s undefeated team put a perfect ending on a perfect season by swimming away with their third straight Pcnn-Ohio college swimming association championship with a 77 point victory. Case Tech of Cleveland was second with 50 joints while Allegheny ran third. The Tartan medley relay team of Counter, Aiken and Kramer broke their own meet record with a 3:12.4 effort. Six first places, including both relays, gave Tech its high score. Freshman Dan Guz won the 50 and 100-yard dashes and also was leadoff man in the freestyle relay. Captain Dick Kramer also earned three gold medals by winning the 150-yard individual medley and anchoring both relays. For the fourth time in as many years Grey Duncan outclassed his diving competition to give the Tartans their other place. Bob Coulter placed second in the 200-yard backstroke. According to tradition, the team tossed Coach Claude Sofield into the pool after the meet. 71 CARNEGIE INDIANA STATE TEACHERS 13 48 CARNEGIE SLIPPERY ROCK 36 41 CARNEGIE ALLEGHENY 34 53 CARNEGIE KENT STATE 31 48 CARNEGIE WESTMINSTER 27 47 CARNEGIE CASE 37 47 CARNEGIE OBERLIN 37 50 CARNEGIE WASHINGTON JEFFERSON 25 58 CARNEGIE GROVE CITY 25 60 CARNEGIE FENN 23 won 10 .loti 0 PENN-OHIO MEET—lit placo ROW 3: 0.

The trackmen, under Coach Guy Halferty’s splendid tutorage ran their dual meet victories to a total of 21 straight over a three year span. To open the season, Carnegie held a practice meet with a small Jeannette squad in the Bowl. Tech easily w’on 72y2-58 2 with Captain Bob Carman setting a new track record of 10:00 in the two mile run. The thinclads officially opened the season at Grove City and romped to an easy 82-49 victory. The Tartans captured first places in all the track events with the exception of the 220 low and 120 high hurdles. Bob Carman won the mile and two mile, setting a new Grove City record of 4:32.2 in the mile. Freshman Bill Wills also was a double winner in the 220 and 440. Tech had little trouble in downing Geneva. The particular star of the afternoon was Bill Wills as he won the 220 and 440 and set a new track record in the 220. Bob Carman again repeated his victories in the mile and two mile. Tech romped over the Gators of Allegheny at the Tech Bowl in their next meet. Again the cindermcn took all the first in the track events except for the hurdles. A newcomer to the squad, Malcolm Gillies of Youngstown, was the star of that meet, breaking the half mile record set by Dave Douglas last year. His time was 1:59.5. Bob Carman continued to win the mile and two mile race while Charley Bell was a doubc winner in the 100 and 200. The Tartans easily disposed of Westmister 85-46 in preparation for the Tri-State track meet. The Washington and Jefferson meet was posponed localise of rain and the Case meet was cancelled by Case due to a lack of practice. The Tartan thinclads closed out a magnificent season with a top-notch victory in the annual Tri-State meet. The flying Scots, picking up most of the points via the oval, emerged a solid 17 point victor over run-nerup Washington and Jefferson. After going 12 years without capturing the coveted Class B champ ionship, the lads of the Plaid brought the trophy home for the second straight year, and the prospects look good for even longer retention in the future. Outstanding in the meet were: Rodger Coyle, who broke the 880 Tri-State record set by Dave Douglas last year with a time of 2:01.6; Bob Carman, Tech’s ace miler, who again swept the mile and two mile events; and Charley Bell, who took second in the 100 and 220. The praise of the team should be loud and long, and especially for Coach Guy Halferty who has guided the squad through its victorious campaigns. COACH GUY HALFERTY ROW 3: F. Wengrcyn, J. Sxewc, R.

Tom was a standout on both the gridiron and the hardwood. A high-scoring, pass-snatching end on the gridiron, he shared the Joe Pash” trophy with Clyde Stahlc for the outstanding football players. He also led the basketball team in scoring and rebounding in his final two seasons. Among his many achievements on the court, Craig left two records in Carnegie’s annals: he tied Coach Mel Cratsley's single game record of 34 points and set a new total scoring record over a four year span. AL CERRITO AWARD Ronald Kay Thompson, a senior architect from Renfrew, Pennsylvania, this year became the first recipient of the Al Cerrito Memorial Trophy. The trophy is emblematic of the best all-around basketball player of the year. Kay co-captaincd this year’s team and in his four years as a player was a star on both the defense and the offense. KAY THOMPSON JOE PASH AWARD Each year the Joe Pash” trophy is awarded to the outstanding football player of that season. This year two players received the award. They were Tom Craig, end, and Clyde Stable, tackle. Craig this year caught seven touchdown passes to lead Tech in scoring, and placed sixth among the Western Pennsylvania Class B scoring leaders. Clyde Stable, senior mechanical engineer from Grecnsburg, was a hard hitting tackle on the Tech line. Clyde was largely responsible for giving the backfield good protection. He has played sterling defense during his four year football career at Tech. Both Tom and Clyde will be missed CLYDE STAHLE next year. INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS THE MEN WHO RUN THE INTRAMURAL PROGRAM Under the able guidance of Mr. Raymond E. Haynes, the past year has been the most successful for the intramural sports program in the history of Tech. Of the 2068 full time day men students, 1033 of them participated in the intramural program for a percentage of 49.9. A welhrounded sports program plays an important part in the campus life. It provides opportunities for every man on campus to participate in friendly and stimulating contests be- tween individuals and groups. The objectives of the program are: building healthy bodies, relaxation from academic tasks, and the creation of a spirit of cooperative sportsmanship. The program covers nearly twenty different sports ranging from touch football in the fall to softball in the spring. There are many individual as well as group sports. Trophies and plaques arc awarded to the winners of each sport. INTRAMURAL BOARD The Intramural Board has an important role in the present program. The Board is a student governing body which has direct contact with the program; works out rules and regulations and changes; decides on protests and, when necessary, on forfeits. In cooperation with the Supervisor of Intramural Athletics, it devises plans for additional sports activities. INTRAMURAL MANAGERS CLUB The Intramural Managers’ Club is made up of a representative from each organization and team. This manager represents his organization's interests in the formation of plans and policies. Close cooperation between the Managers’ Club and the Intramural Board is necessary lor the smooth cooperation of the Intramural Program. EARL BIROY, Afi't Director of Intramural Athletic!

Faglay The forming of Carnegie Tech’s first collegiate volleyball team started in the intramural program in the fall of 1951-52. The intramural volleyball program, under the supervision of R. E. Haynes, attracted the interest of some 27 teams, including one team composed of faculty members. At the completion of the intramural league play, an all star team was chosen by the team managers, to represent Carnegie Tech in the first Tri-State Collegiate Volleyball Tournament to be held at the University of Pittsburgh. Under the guidance of E. J. Rirdy of the Physical Education Department, this team of intramural all-stars practiced together for a short time and went on to defeat Slipj ery Rock State Teachers College in the finals of this tournament. Because of the fine showing Carnegie Tech had made at the Tri-State Tournament in Pittsburgh, they were invited to compete in the Eastern Collegiate Intramural Tournament held in Binghamton, New York this year. The team accepted this invitation and traveled to Binghamton at their own expense. This tournament was made up of Intramural Teams from schools throughout the East. After losing the first game to Oswego State Teachers College, Carnegie downed Cornell, Brockport, Colgate, Wilkes and Scranton to cop top honors in the intramural division. At the completion of this tournament the two top teams were asked to compete in the Eastern Collegiate Tournament along with the better varsity teams in the East. Tech drew Oswego State Teachers College in the opening round and quickly eliminated them 15-7. Next, they sent Cooper Union back to New York City on the short end of a 15-11, 9-12, 15-3 set. The crowning blow came when the Tartans upset hometown sextet (Binghamton State Tech) 10-12, 17-15, 13-9. Tech lost the first game and had to fight hard to take the next two games. The plaid lads” finally bowed out to Spring-field College, who took second in National Tournament last year. Thus, they brought home the second place trophy for the Varsity Tournament. On April 11, at the University of Pittsburgh Field House, Tech again tried to capture the Tri-State Collegiate honor, but had to settle for second place behind a strong University of Pittsburgh team.

Bette Barry FACULTY ADVISER: Al Lehman One of the most industrious organizations on campus, Scotch ’n Soda, presented their tenth annual production. Good Heavens opened on May 6th and ran for three hilarious days. The two act musical told of a heavenly visitor, Venus (Mitzie Cottle) coming down and visiting the Tech campus. And as fate would have it, she falls in love with a l ech student, Reggie (Jack Sweeney). The story that follows is as serious as it is humorous. Professor Wimbley’s dissertation had people literally rolling in the aisles, and will be long remembered. The music and choreography were extremely well done. It was not unusual to hear a few Good Heaven tunes being whistled around campus weeks after the production. Special credit should go to the technical staff for a well coordinated job. In addition to the usual tremendously complex task of putting the show on, Scotch ’n Soda went one further and insured the audience of a good view in the gymnasium theatre. The crews erected special tiers for seating and hung drapery completely around the newly-made auditorium to overcome the acoustical disadvantage. All agreed that it was worth their efforts.

The theme for all floats to follow, chosen by O.D.K., was Childrens' Rooks.” The Delta Tau Delta entry copping first place honors was based on the story of the Merchant and the Genie. The float was a desert scene complete with Genie and six Nubian slaves. Second was Kappa Sigma with a portrayal of the famous whale, Moby Dick, complete with steam shooting from the monster’s blowhole. Alpha Tau Omega took third place with its presentation of the legend of King Arthur’s Court with a modern twist (inclusive of television and radar.) Following the top three in judging were Delta Upsilon (Alladin), Pi Kappa Alpha (Snow White), Beta Sigma Rho (Alice in Wonderland), Theta Xi (King Neptune’s Court), Sigma Alpha Epsilon (Gulliver’s Travels), Beta Theta Pi (Wynken, Blynken, and Nod), and Tau Delta Phi (Hansel and Gretel). The Sigma Nu float met with disaster when the float went up in smoke in two minutes flat. Cinderella’s orange pumpkin, white horses, and green trimmings were set afire, it was believed, by a short circuit in the amplifying system. The float was completely finished and was set in motion to enter the parade when the “flash” fire took place. Fortunately no one was burned or injured as all onlookers scattered. The full 50 gallon side-saddle gas tanks were untouched even though the major part of the fire took place above it. .Vihitrs tfiwri SWEEPSTAKES The battle of the “wheels” was run off on two consecutive days — tlie eliminations on Friday, and the final on Saturday. As usual, a huge throng of spectators was on hand to view the races. Pushmobilcs of many styles and designs were entered, and after five tough heats, the three teams with the best times were selected to compete in the final. On Saturday morning, it was Pi Kappa Alpha, Delta Tau Delta, and Kappa Sigma lined up together at the starting line. And when it was all over, it was the Delt’s 184% jxnmd buggy that came in first. Kappa Sigma's teardrop and Pi Kappa Alpha followed in that order. The winners covered the course in 2:36 minutes — a new all-time record for the Carnival classic. It was the Dell’s sixth consecutive win for the annual competition. The buggy design honors went to Kappa Sigma with the Sigma Nu entry taking second best. And so ended another sweepstakes episode, with everybody wondering what makes the Delt buggy roll. Alpha Epsilon Phi took first place for the second consecutive year in Varsity Varieties, the sorority skit competition held in Thistle Hall. The converted theater was packed with students and faculty who watched as the gals displayed their talent. The wedding skit was called “Submission to Moscow. Sonia Lefsky russianized the nursery rhymes and her pupils recited and sang them. Little Jack Horner became Jake Varner and Jack-Be-Nimble got out of Russia. (Quite a trick.) Second place honors went to Kappa VARSITY VARIETIES Alpha Theta who retold the story of the Wizard of Oz. The land that Dorothy wanted to come to was C.I.T. (Bless her soul.) Grimm’s Fairy tales were modernized by the Kappa Kappa Gamma’s which brought her third place honors. The Kappas included in their skit such fables as Red Riding Hood, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, and Cinderella. Other sorority skits included Tri Dclts’ Pinnochio Under the Sea,” the D. G.’s Sleepy Time,” and Chi Omega’s Hansel and Gretel Fantasy.” The judges who chose the winning skits were Mr. Austen Claessens, Dr. Norman Dawes, and Dr. John Lambert. Two able masters of ceremonies, Frank Gorshin and Bob Livingstone, introduced the skits and played havoc with the judges between skits. Mutzie Fried lander, a senior in ihe drama department and candidate of the Womens' Dormitory was crowned as Spring Carnival Queen at Friday afternoon's Coronation and Call Day ceremonies by Dr. J. C. Warner. Dolly Mitchell, Bobbie Brown, Jeanne Button, and Barbara Yates were elected to the court. The Queen and Court were entertained by the Cameron Choir under the direction of Dale Alexy. They sang (very beautifully, 1 might add) two variety numbers, Little David Play on Yo’ Harp and We All Have Colds. The last song was dedicated to all those who caught a cold after last year's carnival. Various and sundry methods were used to get the favor of the male populace. The Thetas came through with a clever ‘card’ campaign, and Mutzie verbally went it alone in her drive. The fun-loving carnival-goers let loose with their sadistic pleasures as they bombed D. U.’s, dunked Beta’s, Konkcd a Kappa Sig”, and Slapped the map of a Phi Kap” on the midway. The Delt’s teamed up with the Theta’s to put on a variety show called Spring Carnival Capers.” The take-off on burlesque was certainly interesting to watch (the writer agrees.) The dances were provided with sweet music by Russ Carlysle on Friday night with Sy Oliver supplying the music for Spring Carnival finale. FRESHMAN WEEK Here it is September already. The vacation months seemed like days. But we don’t mind. We rather like it here at Tech. Just think of the fun we have. It begins with registration where we stand and wait with I B M cards in one hand and our check books in the other—from the time our departmental secretaries greet us with a smile and say ‘Glad to sec you made it back’ .... to the very end of the line — that cherished spot that the Thistle holds, where they practically force you to buy that good, ever-interesting, much-desired, much-sought-after, ‘better-than-ever’ campus publication .... sometimes referred to as a year book. Once you have succeeded in evading that desk, you will find you have a few dollars left to spend at the corner drug store, the Greeks, the movies, or other places of relaxation. Ah, there’s no place like school . . . . until !. . . . the first day of classes when the profs let loose their storm and fury. Oh, well. That’s Tcchl.............. RUSHING THE KILTIE BAND The backbone of our rallies DANCES AND PEP RALLIES BONFIRE.....Grey leads in a 'hot' cheer T WAS THE NIGHT BEFORE HOMECOMING.Coach Eddie reassures us that we will win tomorrow AND THEN • • • • CARNEGIE DAY’ CARNEGIE INflOTWl OF TECHNOLOGY HOMECOMING V“ CARNEGIE DAY Once again Carnegie Tech students and alumni can look back on a successful Homecoming celebration. This first all-school weekend of the year was a result of hours of planning and hard work. But as the alumni came to join the students all the effort put forth was rewarded by hours of fun and fellowship. Carnegie Day exercises in the gym Friday afternoon marked the beginning of the events. Richard McFad-den, senior drama student, was master of ceremonies. Speakers included Dale E. Strick and Dr. J. C. Warner. After the alumni message the campus honoraries made calls to membership and scholarship awards were announced. The Council of Fraternity Presidents presented a scholarship cup to the Beta Sigma Rho fraternity for the highest fraternity average. Chi Omega received the Pittsburgh Panhcllenic Association schol. arship cup. Highlight of the program was the crowning of the queen Judy Storch, a freshman P D, by the President. The lovely girls, Queen Judy and attendants Lin Smith and Shirley Wilson, were regally escorted into the gym by the bagpipers and Scabbard and Blade honor guard. Several Scottish airs by the Cameron choir and selections by the Kiltie Band provided fine entertainment for the large audience. As the queen officially opened the Homecoming weekend, the gym was showered with balloons representing the colors of the Cameron plaid. The pep rally in the Tech bowl Friday night was full of activity. Each of the 12 fraternity pledge classes vied for the honor of having the best original cheer. Later that evening students and alumni visited fraternity open houses or attended the informal dance sponsored by Citcom Clan in the gym. Spectators gathered at Forbes Field on a clear, sunny Saturday afternoon to see the football game between Tech and Case. The queen, her court, military escort, and band made a colorful entrance into the field. As the crowds cheered, the Tartans defeated the Case Roughriders 10 0. The victory was followed by a parade up Forbes Street led by the Kilties. Another highlight of the weekend was the semi-formal dance from 9 to 1. There was music to suit everyone’s taste. Couples could dance to the smooth melodies of Baron Elliott's orchestra in the men's gym or the faster tempo of Walt Harper and his ja combo in the women’s gym. Awards for the finest house decorations HOUSE DECORATIONS were announced during the evening. First place cup was given to Kappa Sigma fraternity for its display which featured a large head symbolizing Case. From its open mouth mechanical Tech football players were pulling big teeth. The caption was Let’s all pull together. Second place cup was awarded to Beta Sigma Rho for its Big Kill” — the electrocution of a large convict representing Case. Third place went to Delta Upsilon for its Scottie dog pulling a plaid football field and upsetting the Case players. Phi Kappa fraternity pledges were judged as having the best cheer at the Friday night pep rally. And of Course there was celebrating at the fraternity parties and breakfasts. - AT THE DANCE Not to be outdone, the alumni had their round of activities which started with the Homecoming reception and tea in the Union. This was followed by a reunion for all classes at 6 p. m. in the Sylvania Room of the Pittsburgh Athletic Association. Saturday from 10 to 12 a.m. a tour was conducted for the benefit of alumni and interested students. It began at the Union and included all buildings and departments on campus. A luncheon at noon in the gym, the football game, and dinner in the Schcnlcy Hotel at 6 concluded their activities. Needless to say, students and alumni were weary at the end of those two busy days. As they left the campus, tired but happy, perhaps they wondered if the Homecoming weekend next year could possibly compare to the fine one just completed. SING AND SWING JOHN HULL . .Sigma Nu Bill LeRoy and his orchestra provided music for the 1953 Greek Swing at the Syria Mosque. As is traditional, the winners of the six trophies were announced at the intermission of the dance. Kappa Kappa Gamma directed by Margaret McCauI was awarded first place among the sororities with their Das Sandmuchen and Hopssa which they had sung at the Greek Sing the night before at Carnegie Music Hall. Led by John Hull, the Sigma Nu’s captured the first place trophy with their singing of The Minstrel Boy” and I Won't Kiss Katy.” Second place for the sororities was awarded to Kappa Alpha Theta conducted by Mary Jane Troop while Delta Upsilon conducted by Richard Gerrero won second place of the fraternities. Alpha Epsilon Phi placed third among the sororities with Roslyn Rudner conducting. Phi Kappa conducted by Joseph Ceo placed third among the fraternities. The Mosque was adorned in a Greek fashion with a large fountain in the center of the dance floor, while the band stand was decorated to give a parthenon effect and displayed the fraternity and sorority crests. VAUGHN MONROE SHOW POSING WITH GIRLS... lucky g«l� ! with the Moon Maidt and Moon Men On Monday, February 16, 1953, Carnegie Tech proudly set out the welcome mat for one of its past students, Vaughn Monroe. The Camel Caravan Show composed of Vaughn Monroe and orchestra travels the country putting on concerts and recording its broadcasts from different colleges. On his program, recorded before a large audience in the gym, Vaughn and orchestra and Moon Maids played and sang the popular tunes of the day as well as one old favorite, Ballerina,” selected by a poll of the student body. The never to be forgotten renditions of the Alma Mater and Dear Old Tech” were also presented by the friendly orchestra leader. A reception for autograph hounds and those who wanted to sec Vaughn Monroe in the flesh was held after the concert. Free Camels were passed out, and a great time was had by all. VAUGHN CLYDE KNIGHT..........trumpets out a tune PANHEL FORMAL IN THE BALLROOM ....wa done . . . . And then there was the Panhel”, a formal dance sponsored by all the sororities on campus under the able leadership of Jo Weihl, social chairman of the Panhcllcnic Council. The formal was held on November 8th in the ballroom of the Schenley Hotel from nine to twelve o’clock, with Clyde Knight providing the music for everything from waltzes to Mexican hat dances. The new pledges from the seven sororities attended. All escorts were presented with white boutonnieres by the members of the Junior Panhel-lenic Council. COZY CORNER...........'Shall � • danca?' SITTING ONE OUT........ Don't look now, but....I EVERYONE IS TIRED Oh my aching faat! VARIETY ....fait and., ilow C F P FORMAL The first Carnegie Tech social event of 1953 was the Council of Fraternity Presidents’ annual formal on January tenth. Tex Beneke and his orchastra set the tempo for the dance at the Syria Mosque with his Music in the Mood,” much reminiscent of the late Glenn Miller. The decorations, which featured a display of fraternity crests, were very colorful and Bcnekc’s excellent repertoire of fact and slow numbers lent itself to a very enjoyable anti memorable evening. All of the fraternities were well represented, and the affair was conducive to a fine intra-fraternal spirit. BEAUX ARTS BALL WINNERS. Jack and Bonnia coma as negatives The annual dance of the Fine Arts college was held in the Fine Arts Building on Saturday, February 15, 1953. Energetic students decorated the entire building in the week preceding the dance in accordance with the theme of contrast. Music was furnished by the music department. An award for the best costumed couple was given to Bonnie Shields and Jack Saro. REGALITY ........your hand, madame VARIETY .........but abova all——originality ARTS NITE DRAMA . a student production ANTICIPATION ........talking it over Although Arts Nile cannot lie classified as one of the most popular activities on campus, it certainly has a place in the life of the college. The affair is open to all students. However, the main interest lies within the Arts School. Since its beginning in 1949, Arts Nitc has essentially taken the same form—a display of the four arts under one roof—with the theme varying from year to year. It is entirely a student effort with the work taking place on week-ends. Drama students write the production they put on. direct it. design the sets, lighting, et cetera. Music students write their own composition and perform. Likewise, the architects and P fe D’s submit work that is not a part of their curricula. The students receive no awards or recognition other than the mention that it is their work that is being displayed. The theme this year was the integration of activities of the arts. Although smaller, the exhibit was better coordinated and had a better balance than those in the past. The success should be accredited to the industrious people of the Arts Nitc Committee and the Beaux Arts Society.

The ground was thick with mud but this had no dampening effect on the enthusiasm of the Carnival goers. Konk-a-Kappa Sig was no longer accomplished with foul-smelling eggs. Instead ice balls were tossed at the top hat worn by a K Sig. Red ripe tomatoes were available for throwing at some unlucky Theta Xi, as well as pies for Phi Kappas. Along other lines the games of chance such as a wheel of fortune, Skibol and many others drew large crowds determined to win the largest possible stuffed animals. As the Carnival goers tired of gambling they went for a ride on the ferris wheel or Ioop-a-plane, or munched on taffy apples, hot dogs, and | op corn. Long hours spent in preparation were repaid with complete satisfaction when the float parade got under way on Friday afternoon. As the floats passed by the reviewing stand the judges based their opinions on the originality, over all appearance, skill, and appropriateness of the floats. Elephants predominated in FIRST PLACE....... A T O win! ELEPHANTS AND GIRLS. . Sigma Nu taka � acond the general circus theme. The Alpha Tau Omega's was based on the old Disney movie, Dumbo' and portrayed in detail the Disney Circus train. Second place went to Sigma Nu, whose theme was “The Circus Parade.” This was carried out with the aid of many clowns and two snow-white elephants graced by campus beauties. Kappa Sigma, taking third place, introduced “The Human Cannonball.” Numerous viewers in a circus tent and a huge cannon were on the float. A dummy was shot out of the cannon in from of the reviewing stand. MORE FLOAT PARADE THIRD PLACE HONORS Kappa Sig'i big gun DELT BROTHERS Oh. that lucky olophant!

Many strangely clad girls could be seen roaming the campus and attracting male glances. Campaigns for Carnival Queen were under way. For a period of one week the girls charmed and pampered the boys with shows, parades, and dinners. Everything from the Campus Coed to Indians and Spanish dances was in order. Friday rolled around and the all-male election was held. After one long week of waiting, Mary Lou Rocks was crowned queen by Dr. Warner. The Cameron Choir sang and the Kiltie Band played for the new queen and her court. Of the 14 candidates, the four elected to the court were Lynda Cooper, Nancy Callaway, Sally Miller, and Mary Jane T roop. NANCY CALLAWAY. LYNDA COOPER. SALLY MILLER. MARY JANE TROOP. MARY LOU ROCKS ■Hi REJOICING.....the victor colebrato Pi K A' ENTRY ... worming up the engine On Friday morning the preliminary heats of the annual pushmobile race were run. These races decided which buggies would compete in Saturday's finals and which would qualify for design awards. Saturday morning spectators saw the Alpha Tau Omegas capture first place, establishing a new record of 2:30.55. The Dells were second with 2:30.6. I’i Kappa Alpha took third place honors. FINAL TOUCHES ATO driver get taped in During the school year the Scot and Tartan exchanged numerous argumentative comments on the King of Hearts issue. In accordance with true gentlemanly behavior, the Scot issued a challenge so that the argument might be settled once and for all. The seconds arranged the time and place of the breath-taking event at 1:00 Saturday of Spring Carnival week-end on the Fine Arts lawn. The late Mr. Durstine represented the Tartan, and Mr. Drew (who was also late) carried the honor of the Scot. Mounted on horses and armed with cream pies, the challenged and challenger drew into firing range. After several hits and misses, the pair ran out of pies and the contest was deemed a draw by the judges. The horses made quite a few nice movements, especially Mr. Durstine’s nag. All went away with a satisfied, reliex ed look (especially Mr. Durstine’s horse) as the ’clean-up’ committee went to work. TUG-O-WAR The sun shone brightly on Saturday afternoon and most of the mud had disappeared. There was, however, one large conspicuous man-made mud puddle remaining between Maggie Murph and the Carnegie Inn. This was the spot selected by the Spring Carnival Committee for the tug-o-war competition between the sororities in place of the traditional Varsity Variety show. An expectant crowd gathered to see what a group of lady-like sororities could do. With twelve members on each team and best out of three five-minute pulls established as rules, the teams began tugging. Before a thoroughly amused crowd and much-drenched participants. Kappa Alpha Theta, Delta Gamma, and Kappa Kappa Gamma tied for first place. The Delta Gamma’s drew a bye and the Theta’s lost to the Kappa’s. In a hard fought struggle Kappa’s won the first pull in the final round. The Dee Gee’s rallied to win the second pull. After the third and decisive pull, Kappa Kappa Gamma emerged victorious. The enthusiasm of the participants spilled over” a little when they gathered to throw Bob Byrne and Dick Woods (committeemen in charge) into the refreshing moisture of the mud puddle. Despite blistered hands, mud-covered clothes, and straight hair (even muddy photographers) the tug-o-war must be deemed a success. CARNIVAL DANCES Friday night. Buddy Williams played and entertained couples in the men’s gym from nine to one. Fun was had by all at this informal dance especially when such dances as the “Bunny Hop” and Mexican Hat dance were included. Saturday night was the climax in an exciting weekend of events. At the formal dance, awards were presented by Queen Mary Lou Rocks to all winning competitors. Dancing was to the music of Eddie Howard and his band. AND THEN IT WAS OVER With all the joys and sorrows (and rain), the '53 Spring Carnival came to an end as all good things do. We will remember this carnival as we will the others .... with the rain, muddy shoes, the midway rides, most of the booth games. Pretty much the same, wasn’t it? But wait! There were some things that might distinguish this one from others. We did have the initiation of the sorority tug-o-war competition which the Kappas won. Then there were the ATO’s taking two of the bigger trophies —the buggy race and the float parade. Certainly, the former is a change from other carnivals as the sweepstake honors were whisked away from the Delts. And no other carnival can lay claim to having had pretty Mary Lou Rocks for its Queen .... And of course there was a duel. Most likely such an event won’t become an annual affair. Messers Durstinc and Drew . . . . and their walking glue factory . . . won’t be around forever (bless their little hides— the horses, that is.) And what about the . . . . Oh, what’s the use! I could not begin to tell you what’s so different about this carnival. Besides, we all have our own cherished, little memories to keep. All in all, we did have a lot of fun hack there in “ ) at which time, we sat back and wondered how we all pulled through . . . . and we still wonder!!! GRADUATION SENIOR BALL BACCALAUREATE On Friday, June 3, 1933, the seniors and graduate students entered Carnegie Music Hall to a Guilmant Processional to hear Doctor Warner speak on a worthwhile and timely subject: Man Needs Both Science and Religion. Parents and students joined in prayers offered for the students by the Reverend Hugh S. Clark. Hymns were sung by the Chorus of the Department of Music. After the Baccalaureate Service parents and students danced in the foyer of the Music Hall to the music of Jack Purcell and his band. The Senior Ball was well-attended. COMMENCEMENT Graduation Day was here at last! Proud parents and relatives gathered in the Syria Mosque on Saturday, June 6, to see Dr. Warner confer sonic 700 degrees of Bachelor of Science, M.S., Ph.D., and D.S. An honorary degree of Doctor of Science was awarded to Paul Darwin Foote, Vice President of Gulf Oil Corporation. Immediately following Commencement Exercises the President gave a reception at the Carnegie Union for the graduates and their families. However eager to start on their careers, the graduates were a little sorry to leave the campus where they have made many friends and had many pleasurable ex| erienccs. But there will be future Homecomings when they can renew oltl friendships and recall the good oV days. PRESIDENT’S RECEPTION Here where spangled wildernesses ROBED THE MOUNTAINS OF THE WEST.

HISTORY Origin of Koppers Company. Inc., dates back to June 10. 1907 when Heinrich koppers. a young German engineer who had devised a better way of heating chemical-recovery c-oke ovens, established engineering offices at Joliet, III. Koppers set about building a battery of his coke ovens for the Illinois Steel Company. The budding young steel industry of the United States watched with interest, recognizing that the Koppers ovens made better coke, and at the same time recovered the gas. tar and other products which the old bee-hive ovens burned off. GROWTH World War II saw a need for synthetic rubl er, and the government. recognizing Koppers ability in constructing specialized chemical plants, asked it to build a plant at Kobuta. Pa., to make stvrene and butadiene, primary ingredients of synthetic ruhlx-r. After the war. Koppers purchased part of the Kobuta plant and converted it to the manufacture of the versatile plastic molding material—polystyrene. With four other chemical plants in operation. and a sixth under construction, Kop|x-rs has become a growing unit of America's rapidly expanding chemical industry. RESEARCH Recognizing that continued growth demands unceasing efforts to better serve industry and the public. Koppers places great emphasis on scientific research . . . research that makes many products better and many better products possible. In addition to extensive participation at Mellon Institute, Koppers is preparing to open a Research Center at Verona, Fa. A Career with a Future From a small engineering firm. Later purchased by American interests and moved to Pittsburgh. Koppers grew rapidly, entering new fields opened by the chemical-recovery coke ovens. To supply cities with gas and coke, it built for itself and operated several batteries of the coke ovens. It built plants for the recovery of benzene and toluene which were so badly needed for production of explosives during World War I. It began to make tar products such as road and roofing materials, to find ways of getting more of the chemical derivatives from tar. and to utilize certain chemicals that could Ik- recovered from the coking process.

ARKANSAS When the souvenirs from your good oV college days arc lost and destroyed by your children or what have you, 1 hope that the ’53 thistle will have survived the battle of extinction. 1 hope with equal sincerity that it serves in recalling many pleasant memories which otherwise might be forgotten. The Staff and 1 would be pleased to know that the many hours .... some running into the wee hours of the morning .... were not spent in vain. It was our aim to please the mass (an awfully ambitious goal), and to record Life at Carnegie fairly and honestly. With rubber cement sticking to our fingers, paper littering the floor, and unused photographs that we wanted to use so badly .... we come to the end of a book that we call the '53 thisti.k. Our hours were long and the problems perplexing. We have, however, survived the grind and are much the wiser. When time has lapsed and age has weathered our grey matter, the Staff and 1 will undoubtedly wonder why we did the things we have done as we too browse through the thistle. Hut after things arc said and done; we do not care .... we had our fun! Many best wishes to the growing family of carnegik graduates front my diligent staff, and front your editor. — — .
