Into the face of the beautiful old clock in Berry Hall, which we have looked at so many times and so seldom seen, we now look for a review of our year 1948, and when our clock grows especially remi- niscent, fond snatches of memories from years further back. Ever} ' minute of the PCW year recorded by our timepiece has meant something to us — as we learn to know our classmates through an idle chat in the dorm or during a hard game of hocke ' . A great many of our minutes were stacked up in stud ' , for we came to college to learn, and we stayed to fulfill that ambition. But not all our education came from books — our clock ticked off some ga ' seconds. Finally, with the last chime of the old clock reverberating in our ears, we don cap and gown. We have made the most of four ears of our time. Pennsylvania College For Women This sign marks the boundary of cur campus and the beginning of a new era in our life.

ANDERSON The deepest respect and affection for our president Dr. Paul R. Anderson who has won, in three short ' ears, the gratitude and loyalty of PCW by his friendly smile and encouraging word; by his wholehearted and enthusiastic partic- ipation in every phase of college life; by his willingness to give himself and his time to guide us; and by his sincere attempts to develop the spirit an d purpose of Pennsyh ' ania College for Women as a background for a better world of tomorrow. We who know him, love him, and loving him, we are proud to say he is our President. Our fondness and admiration goes cut to our Dean who has been an active influence in our lives for these four } ' ears. We have stoocf trembling before her door, a little white card clutched in our hand; we ha x ' laughed with her at gay, informal parties, when she plays Mary Helen ; she has entertained us during her yearly performances with the facult}-, singing I ' m Onh A Bird In A Gilded Cage or genth ' satirizing the blue-jeaned student who is fond of dark cars. But e en more than this, we like to remember the Miss Marks who has been our consultant, adviser, and friend. MISS MARY HELEN MARKS THE FACULTY J.

SENIORS • Our last year — and we really made it our biggest and best one! We ere proud and happy to reach the long-awaited goal of ranking as seniors, ) ' et wc were sad in realizing our final year at PCW had begun. We appreciated the unity that our class had achieved through working and playing together for four years. Never will we forget the da) ' we finally won the song contest for our PCW-Pete and Starlight Song — how thrilled we were — cheering and smiling through tearful eyes. And how well our small clan of seventy-four took care of that five-pound box of candy in short order! Those long weeks of practicing for the musical comedy which we wrote and produced were strenuous, but lots of fun and quite profitable — not only financially, but for the experience we gained. Out hockey and basketball teams were too scanty and evidently too decrepit with their ad -anced age to win any honors, but we played the game for the fun of it, and enjoyed the activity. Wc had our fingers in many pies this year, but came the social life and we relaxed, allowing the sophomores and juniors to entertain us with the Holly Ball and the Junior Prom. y fter our academic robes had been passed on to the in-coming seniors, we came to the full realization that we were graduates. Yes, this was our best and fullest year — brimming with hard work, cooperation, good times, and happy memories. Senior Class Officers Carol Watson, Helen Obermayer, Mary Ann Houck, Lucille McKay.

[64] RECAPITULATION In September, 1944, quaking with anticipation and excitement, we came to college. Those first few days were oh! so confusing! — meeting new people, making out schedule cards, standing in endless lines, peering around chapel poles for cur first glimpse of Dr. Spencer, and attending the YW get-acquainted party and faculty reception. All of these were part of a completely new venture for us. We rightfully became the class of ' 48 after receiving the green and white colors from the class of ' 44 on Color Day. At last we were initiated into college life. Eager to try our wings, we elected Dr. Martin as our faculty advisor and Suzy Sutton class president. We fought hard on the hockey field, the basketball floor, and exuded PCW spirit in the song contest and the one-act play contest. Remember the big snow storm we had that winter? — and the excitement of an unexpected two-day vacation being snowbound? Dating was almost out of the question — e ' en those women at Ski-High U and Mad Plaid Normal ' ' must have had a hard time then. Most of us managed to discover a man somewhere for the Big and Little Sister dance, the Christmas dance, and the junior prom — even though he may have been someone ' s little brother. PCW ' s seventy-fifth anniversary was celebrated the fall of our freshman year — it was really a big event on campus with academic representatives from all over the countr}- here for convocation, reminiscent fashion shows, movies, and luncheons. Betsy Donaldson ' s death introduced a note of sadness into the year, but we will not forget her, for she was a wonderful friend and a good classmate. As spring approached, we were smitten with our first epidemic of spring fever a la collegienne. The hockey field was literally covered with sun-bathers, all wantin! a smooth Florida tan, though many, like the Idaho potato, got too well- baked. When the time came for the class of 1945 to move up and out of college life, we decided we had not done so badly for beginners and we looked forward, after the summer vacation, to filling the gaps left by the gay young sophomores. The fall of 1945 brought many changes at PCW. We knew our way around by then and it was our turn to watch the new freshmen wander around in a daze. The biggest difference we found was that Dr. Spencer, whom we all had loved, had gone to Bucknell, and Dr. Anderson, who was to win a new place in our hearts, had taken his place as president of the college. The faculty was hard at work on curriculum changes which were destined to put our college among the top women ' s educational institutions. There had been many phj ' sical changes in the campus. The old smoker was moved and refurbished, and called the lounge. The co-op was now the Purple Seal with ever so man ' more things to sell. Coolidge Hall was now a dorm, and Dr. There ' ll be some changes made Andersen was living in the newly-purchased Gregg House. When hockey season rolled around again, the team did its best to uphold the class honor on the field, but we just weren ' t fated to hold that cup. Phyl Dcrnberger took over the position of class president, and we acclaimed class- mate Idamae Brody, who won the local oratorical contest for the second straight year. We didn ' t fare too well in the song contest, but came the play contest and the basketball tournament, and we pulled our light from under the bushel. Our first trophies ! Dates were becoming more plentiful, and we were proud to take oui ' men to the sophomore Christmas dance, so well-staged by Dotty Berg. In between extra activities, we did find time to work, and to work hard. Semester exams bore down on us all too soon. Then the prom weekend, and before we could realize that time flies so fast. Illumination Night had come and gene and we were upperclassmen. It was sweet to hear those words at the end of our sophomore year. Our term started late in 1946, and we came back to PCW to find a power strike, a delightful little sister class, a new addition to Fickes, a remodeled first floor in Woodland Hall, and Peggy Donaldson, Helen Gilmore, Jean Dalzell, and Helen Parkinson added to the administration roll. From the very beginning of the year we were reminded of the big spring affair — May Day. W ' ednesday afternoons were filled with dance rehearsals and sewing bees as we turned Elizabethan. Joy Wilson was elected to the all-important job of junior class president, [66} and Bett ' L ' Hote was our class representative orienting the freshmen into the pattern of PCW life. We were sitting in the front rows of chapel now — no more peeking around poles for us ! Dr. Avirett, education editor of the New York Herald-Tribune, predicted a great future for PCW, a college a part of the city, yet apart from the city. The college also received pictorial recognition in Parade Magazine and Phil Spitalny and his All-Girl Orchestra dedicated one of their regular Sunday hymns to us. We were thrilled at the realization that soon PCW would mean to the world at least some part of what it meant to us. We were responsible for the memorable night of March 14 — the Junior Prom, remember. ' Marj Caldwell and her committee topped all previous records for attendance and profit. Two scholarships were given to members of our class from the proceeds. In our last play contest, we came through with the honors for the second time, thanks to the writing and direction of The Hour Cometh, by Nancy MacDonald. And Corinne Trout copped the winning place in the oratorical contest. May Day arrived at last. W ' e sold our home-made wares at the junior booths and donned milk maid or chimney sweep costumes, meantime watching the cloudy sky with apprehension. But luckily the downpour didn ' t come down over the brilliant amphitheater. Alma Anderson, Ginger Long, and Betty L ' Hote were our representatives on Queen Lucy Beale ' s court. We decided that all the time and effort which we had spent on May Day for the whole year had been very worthwhile, since it was the most colorful and e.xciting day of our college years, and would be worth} ' of reminiscenses for years to come. Junior year we took charge of Illumination night and were elated to be a part of the rose chain. Ginger Long and Mary Lynott were selected to lead the class in beauty. We were beginning to understand what it would be like to be a senior, as we ushered at graduation, and tried on the academic robes which we had eagerly purchased. Looking back, we had many pleasant memories of our junior year at PCW, only blighted by the death of our dear friend and teacher. Dr. Montgomery. When the fall of 1947 came around, we could hardly realize that we had become full-fledged seniors. We wore our caps and gowns for the first time (oiTicially) on Alatriculation Day. Betty L ' Hote now wielded the gavel at SGA meetings on Thursday. We started the year with a big time at Mountain Day at North Park. Por the first time in years the students defeated the faculty in the annual Softball game. The bus drivers who umpired ' the game were fine fellows. The Harvest Ball was our first formal dance of the ) ' ear. Edgewood Countr) ' Club was crowded, but the crowd enjoyed itself. Lefty Doolittle and Ginny Barkley spent man}- hours rehearsing with us for the song contest, and b}- gadfrey, if we didn ' t win at last, with our PCW Pete and the dreamy Starlight Song. It was an unforgettable thrill to see Mr. Wich- mann hand over to us that five-pound bo.x of candy for a prize. We lost our voices and our caps, but it was worth it. Mr. Wenneker worked diligently with us in the writing and producing our musicale, A Lass and a Lack. Audrey Bigelow originated the theme in which the Huckleberry Hall ghost lends her aid to Dean Shocks in restoring happiness and men to the students of Pantaloon College for Well-tended Women. Rehearsals were long, but every minute up to the final performance was wonderful fun. The lodge was a new addition to the campus second semester. Jessie Gilbert and the AA board spent many hours refurnishing the old garage on the McCargo property, adjacent to the hockey field. We made good use of this new recreation center for parties and dinners during our last few months at PCW. We participated in the aquacade; we had a wonderful time at the Candlelight Ball and the senior breakfast in Mellon afterwards, and the next day, polished off the prom weekend at the Hood and Tassel tea dance. Mrs. Martin gave a lovely St. Patrick ' s Day tea in Mellon for her class, using the green and white very appropriately. Before we knew it, senior week activities were upon us, with rehearsals, teas, breakfasts, and friends and parents arriving for that great day, June 7. We were very proud to receive our diplomas, for that made us official alumnae of Pennsylvania College for Women, the finest school in the country. ' e believe it, and we love it. [67 1 JUNIORS • The fall of 1947 found the junior class boasting a membership of exactly 100, including ten new transfers. As the seventy-sixth class, we have much to look forward to, and a lot to look back on. We began the year with a picnic at the home of our adviser, Mrs. Ferguson. On Color Day we were in white dresses and red ribbons, symbolic of our class colors, and our president Bobby Hanson present- ed to our sister class, the freshmen, the rose and white which we had held in trust for them. In the Song Contest the juniors received honorable mention for rendition of PCVV Charm Girl, Familiar Scenes, and Bookbound. After exams, we set forth on some dramatic activity and at the play contest turned in a winning performance of The Ape of God ; written by Marge Alexander. Next in the class activity came the Candlelight Ball and a successful prom weekend managed by Joyce Robinson. By this time we were enjoying the privilege of wearing our brand-new class rings. With term papers and such, there was little time to relax before we delved into final week preparations. On Moving-Up Day, we saw a few of our number tapped for Hood and Tassel, and we all enjoyed the feeling of the senior section. Then we staged the Illumination Night rose chain dance. Thus ends our third j ' ear on the campus of PCW, and as we say goodbj ' e to the seniors of ' 48 and wish them all success, we look forward to the best year, the senior year, of the class of ' 49.

We were conscious cf our standing as the largest class to matricu late, and we were to be the first to graduate under the new curriculum. We like to look back on our accomplishments of the ' ear. We won the cherished hockey cup, and then, on Cclor Day, we were awarded first place for our presentation of Charm Girl of PCW. (That ' s what we want to be.) At Christmas, we patted ourselves on the back for our part in the season ' s merriment, for we were responsible for the Hclly Ball given at the William Penn. Yes, we were the gay young sophomores. Came exam time, and we disco ' ered what the new curriculum was doing for us — increased knowledge, a broadened scope, and unfortunatelw much hard work. In the spring, we gave the traditional bridge-tea for our Big Sisters, and then settled down for some serious thought about a major. Only two more years of college life and then we would be out in the cold, cold world. But we intend to make the best of our ne.xt two years, for we will ne er forget the fun we ' e had and the prestige we ' ve attained at PCW.

[ 84 ] FRESHMEN • We arrived at our new home in a whirl of excitement and with a few qualms to find that being a freshman seemed only to require a pair of good strong legs. The lines seemed endless. After our schedules were arranged and classes began, we were faced with the task of learning names and faces. In-between there were tests and more tests to find cur aptitudes and I.Q. ' s. On Matriculation Day we were formally welcomed by the faculty and student body in a very impressive ceremony. We were beginning to feel at home! Each Wednesday afternoon Fletch taught us PCW ' s songs, traditions and way of life, and after six weeks of cramming we took the orientation test — and passed ! ! In the midst of all this activity, the Open House reared its pretty head and we set out to get ourselves a Pitt, Tech, or W. J. man — perhaps men! Almost before we realized it, Color Day was upon us and we proudh ' received the rose and white of our class and were recognized as a class. After gruelling semester exams, the year whizzed by — with the help of the lovely dances and many blind dates Almost too soon, Aloving-Up Day arrived and we bade farewell to the Grand Old Seniors and got a chance to tr)- out our new seats in the auditorium. Now our only wish is that our next three ) ' ears at PCW will be as happy and full of fun as this our Freshman Year. Alary Geanne Pilgram, Barbara Hoy, Alarion Tobe.

Its chief purpose is to accent the spiritual meaning in all activities, and the fine calendar of religious speakers we have enjoyed this year speaks well for the cabinet ' s good work. The YW also sponsors speakers and discussion groups on current affairs and topics of local interest. Emphasizing the importance of com- munity, national, and international service, our chapter sponsors workers in settle- ment houses in Pittsburgh, entertainment for the underprivileged, conference aid, and the annual World Student Service Fund Drive. On the social side, YW gives us our big sister program, and a number of unique and enjoyable parties and dances. YWCA BOARD President .... Marianne Boggs Treasurer Vice president . . .

But they can be justh proud of their outstanding accomplishments — the completion of the new hockey field on the McCargo prop- erty and the remodeling and furnishing of the adjacent garage into a lodge that is rapidh- becoming the center of many of our smaller campus soirees. Another big feather in their cap was the colorful ' ' Water Circus given in Mellon pool in February. Besides playing their regular program of inter-class tournaments, our teams have challenged Pitt and Lake Erie. And the Association sees an even brighter future ahead in the form of a beautiful new gymnasium.

For the benefit of those students, the committee maintains a bulletin board on current affairs, and works with the chapel committee on bringing to the campus speakers who are qualified to present our his- tory in its making.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Want to be kept alert about current affairs and world problems: You can join this group of internationally-minded students who try their hand at solving grave world situations in their sincere effort to appreciate the history-making con- sequences of our era. From time to time their own ideas are stimulated by out- side speakers and by PCW professors. This year the group sent representatives to the International Relations Conference in New Jersey to bring back news of what other students with a ital interest in public affairs are thinking.

With willingness to serve one ' s college the members of the Hood and Tassel, chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, character, and service, have lightened many moments of the school term while raising money for the PCW Scholarship Loan Fund. As a result of a raffle, fashion show, and the prom week- end tea dance (they called it Sophisticana ), they were happy to chalk up a successful year. Hood and Tassel also included in their calendar a tea for the sophomore honor students and an entertainment for their alumnae. Always at the beck and call of the college, they have fulfilled their purpose: to serve. The H. T. fashion show brings a breath of spring to February Top: {floor) B. Ross A. Raspaldo Front: B.

Alusic is an important part of PCVV life, not only in the informal sings in the dining hall and dorms, in the song contest during which intraclass unity is strengthened mightily, and class competition reaches its peak, but in the organ- ized groups which enjoy furthering their musical abilit) ' under the direction of a competent faculty. The Glee Club members have fun singing together, and they do it often ... in chapel programs, the Christmas pageant, the Spring concert, and before many outside groups in the city. The instrumental ensemble plays for chapels, teas, and entertainments, and throughout the year individual re- citals are given by students of voice, organ, and piano. A high spot in assembly entertainment is the program of original compositions given by the music theory classes. And everyone appreciates those who start the freshmen out on the right key and keep the rest of us on pitch, Dorothy Doolittle and Virginia Barkle}-, college song leader and pianist.

' It is this question asked of the students which forms the foundation of the week of vocational guidance planned by the vocational committee. The speak- ers and forums which they sponsor are a ' aluable educational guide to all the students in the college. Front: Barbara Illig; Marjorie Alexander, Erma Cathcart, Natalie Ee:er 1117] THE CURRICULUM Interviews with business I men give the students a S practical view of profes- sional hte. Two girls add book bon- ing to their creative work lor a term paper. We ' re being educated for tomorrow today at PCW. Standbys such as calculus, history of Greece, and biochemistry exist side-b ' -s!de in our curriculum with the arts, modern soci- ety, and life. Moreover, the development of clearly-defined attitudes and beliefs essential for purposeful living are encouraged as the student advances through her four years. Ma- jors continue, but against a background of studv in the five areas of learning which aug- ments and broadens the student ' s scope. To learn something about herself — of the human body and its functions, she studies human de- velopment and behavior; and many girls con- tinue their preparation for marriage and home life with courses in family living or educa- tion concerning marriage. To gain apprecia- tion of her physical surroundings, the student studies life and matter, energy and cosmos, and of course, she mav go bevond these basic Cora Da ' is and Jane Steele learn what happens behind the scenes in a bank. Carnegie Library is an important supplementary source for term paper material. % — — The place of art in the curriculum has been accent- ed because of its importance as a part of one ' s cultural background. principles to major in chem or biology. But modern living demands also an understanding of our society — its economic, political, and social programs; and again the curriculum has the answer with modern society. Here the girls get right out to the fore in the correlated speech course. So far she has covered the earthly things, but what about aesthetic inter- ests? The two-year arts course is calculated to bring out the interests and talents of each I ' hc Canicmc art exhibit is an excellent reference for the arts course. pursuits student — also guided recreational ' ield academic credit. Lastly, their program has its clima.x in the philosophy of life course, usually taken in the senior year, when each student is acquainted with different systems of thought and knowl- edge so that she may develop her own sense of values. Small wonder that we ' re proud of our cur- riculum. The Little Theater at Carnegie Tech is worth credit points, as well as hours of enjo} ' ment. Stan Kenton introduces his progressive jazz to students of the arts. ki o- ' ci ck The buzzing doorbell, the jangle of the telephone. Your date is downstairs. Our social whirl is spinning the threads of romance. • In the } ' ears to come our memories of PCW will mainly be of the extra things we did — not the work. The clash of hockey sticks and the resulting sore muscles; the thrill of receiving cur class colors on Color Day; the layers and layers of make-up for those one-act plays. The beauty of the formal dinner at Christmas- time and the surprise serenade; the leg-work to meet Arro-zc deadlines; the Valen- tine dinner and the hilarious faculty show afterwar ds. The excitement of those e.xtra special proms; those long-awaited weekends at Dartmouth, Cornell and the rest. Chapels both enjoyed and endured; hands of bridge squeezed in between classes. Class meetings and song practices; joint Glee Club concerts with Pitt and Tech; bitter debates in SGA; midnight spreads during exams. Yes, we ' ll remember all this and much more.

We have brushed up on our carols for weeks before, and on one cold night, we set out to in- still our spirit into the homes of the Woodland Road residents. Afterwards, there is always hot cocoa, doughnuts, and good fellowship. ■ • The annual Christmas pageant brings to the campus a revivification of the real meaning of the season. The combined efforts of the music, drama, art, and dance departments produce a spectacle that attracts visitors from all over the city. • In the schedule is a grandiose formal dinner in Woodland Hall for the dorm students.

Brilliant, rose-splashed wallpaper and trim, tailored slip- covers transformed the usually-barren stage into the fashionable Park Avenue apartment of Mrs. Paul Espenshade, who was very charmingly portrayed by Betty Bilderback. There was a double supporting cast which alternated for the three performances, with the exception of Jerry Wenneker, who played Mr. Espenshade, and George Mayer, who appeared as Vernon Hassett. The rest of the cast was: Anna Mrs. Mabel Wentz Pcnnv Jane Harbison Alice ' andermark Mary Lou Beery Virginia Rix Marilyn Altman Cora Davis Mrs. Ferguson directed the PCW pro- duction of the Broadway show, Mr. Wenneker was technical director, and Miss Trozzo, costumer. The stage crews had a full-time job for The Fatal Weak- ness, meantime learning such practical arts as wall-papering and making slip- covers. But the finished product was worth it. J 5 . ' ' r .

These characterize the play contest. The best efforts of the competing classes are put forth to produce an evening of dramatic varietv. Hidden talents are discovered; weird events occur; the com- monplace becomes ridiculous; all for the gold trophy which symbolizes victory. The Ape of God, Make Your Prexy Sexy, ' and Scoot The Skirts to Me, Mother were no exceptions. ' Scoot The Skirts to Me, Mother ' Make Your Prexy Sexy [ 129] ' ' YOU CAN ' T TAKE IT WITH YOU The faculty entertainment — that long-awaited oppor- tunity to see our favorite teachers discard their dignity for the evening. This year, You Can ' t Take It With You, the hilarious corned} ' by Moss Hart and George Kaufmann, was the outlet for the hidden talent which our faculty secrets behind black robes and horn-rimmed spectacles. Their antics, plus the between-act selections by the PCW Bebop- pers and our campus version of Dorothy Shay gave every- one a riotous evening.

Through the Looking-glass THE CANDLELIGHT BALL There was dancing candlelight, a gleaming floor, a balcon)- scattered with friendly white tables. There was a long line of couples before gracious Joyce Robinson; there were lovely girls, rugged men, sweeping gowns and flowing tails. We heard music — Count Williams, lulling and charming impatient feet; we heard soft laughter and murmuring youth. Together, we sipped cokes, nibbled cookies, and marveled at the colors in our ice mold. Together, we met grads and dates and played the Oh, Do You Know . . . ? game. We were high above our glim- mering city, our solemn studies and our tomorrows. We were enchanted with our Junior Prom, the Candlelight Ball. [131] A LASS AND A LACK Things turned out successfully in the original senior musical pro- duction, A Lass and A Lack, for the students of Pantaloon College for Well-tended Women were lasses with no lack. Written by Audrey Bigelow, Mary Alma Lapsle ' , Nancy MacDonald, and Amy Gage, aided and abetted by the whole class, the play was fun to give and fun to see. A Lass and a Lack was a harmless take-off on college life in general, and the man situation in particular, and giving credit where credit is due, we won out in the end. Ski-Hi J and Mad Plaid Normal didn ' t have a ghost of a chance with our own Huckleberry Hall Ghost and Dean Shocks managing the situation. W HAPPY REMINISCENCES Looking forward, we also look back. We remember the year we spent getting ready for May Day, and what a big day it turned out to be. Of course, the clouds were dripping down the backs of our necks, but Fortune was with us and the rains never came. And remember the hordes of photographers that descended like locusts on the May Court . And right in the center was the little lady from Life. Well, we tried anyway. Then came Illumination Night, and we realized with a start that next year we, the incoming seniors, would be on the other side of the Rose Chain and it would be our turn to queue up around Mellon lawn and receive the friends who had come to see us graduate. And looking back, we look forward to that day so near, when the class of ' 48, in sober academic dress will receive their diplomas, turn their tassels, and become alumnae of the Penns ' lvania College for Women. THE CHARM GIRL OF PCW • Charm is an ambiguous term when one tries to define it. Is it beaut) ' , or poise, or intelligence, or could it be all three: We tried to analyze it, and emerged from a heated conference with a list of six qualifications that make up what we like to consider charm: friendliness, beauty, sportsmanship, vivacit} ' , initiati ' e, and intelligence. Then we can ' assed the senior class for THE Charm Girl and discovered that we had not one, but seventy-five. So leaving the vote to the class, the field was finalh ' narrowed down to seven — one girl who best embodies a com- bination of the characteristics of charm, and six girls, each of which is outstanding for one of the components. This } ' ear, the Charm Girl might also rightfulh ' be called Aliss Northwest, for she, with the six charm girls and the eight runners-up, were guests of honor at the christening of the new Northwest Airlines flight into Pittsburgh, and the Charm Girl was awarded a flying trip to a northwest dude ranch. And, now, without further ado, the Pennsylvanian proudly presents the seniors who were chosen as the ideal PCW women, the Charm Girls of PCW. [ 136] THE PCW CHARM GIRL Vl amla 2cui,( BEAUTY MaMf.

Gulf scientist wears ETOggles to protect eyes from the bright rays of the sun. He can turn on the rain and the sun... WITH THE FLICK of a switch, the Gulf scientist (above) can turn the sun on or off as he pleases. And this is a thing he does many times each day to test how well certain oil compounds can protect metals from exposure and rust. It ' s all done in the artificial weather machine you see above. Oil treated metal panels are exposed to tropical heat in this tank — to rays of ultra- violet light (the intensity of which is several times that of the noonday sun). In the same tank, these metal panels are also exposed to sprays of rain. Thus, oils and compounds can be tested in this tank in a fraction of the time actual outdoor weather exposure would take. Through such methods as this, Gulf scientists are able to increase the value of petroleum products — well aware that there ' s a plus for every- one in petroleum ' s progress.
