B Among those things which are most deeply impressed upon the minds and memories of stu- dents the world over are moments spent in association with certain educators whose exceptional abilities effect the finest instruction: whose friendliness and understanding earn them secure and permanent places in the hearts of the students. Such an instructor is Lawrence Perez. In recog- nition of his fine work at The Coper Union, we, the students. dedicate the 1941 Cable to him. His popularity in the class room is for the most part the result of his ability to understand. as sU few instructors do, the students and their problems. His teaching is sufficiently spangled with wit so that his classes are rarely dull and uninteresting. Therefore, it is not diflicult to under- stand why those of us who receive his instruction look forward to his classes. In the laboratory he is the co-partner of every student, extending a willing and helping hand. But this dedication is not inspired only by his excellence as an educator. Outside the class room he enjoys his association with students as much as the students themselves welcome his friendliness and good-fellowship. Among his most valued contributions to extra-curricular life at Cooper L'nion is the time which he so nnselfishly and unsparingly relinquishes. and the expert guidance which he gives to the students in his capacity as faculty adviser to the Activities Plan Committee and to the Cam- era Club. It is for all of these. then, that we dedicate this book to Lawrence Perez with the sincere wish that it will repay him in part for what he has accomplished and the example he has set-although we know he looks for no tribute.

He has introduced many beneficial changes in the administration of his office and in the cur- riculum of the art schools. Especially in the inducting of new courses into the curriculum, Mr. Clark has demonstrated his vision, ability, and leadership. Most of these new courses are prac- tical because they present to the student a comprehensive program providing a grounding in the fine arts and specialization along the lines of creative individual aptitudes. ln connection with these courses, Mr. Clark has enlisted the collaboration of a group of suc- cessful practicing artists, and has brought with them to the Art School a logical, practical, and significant viewpoint of the world outside. Most important of his achievements is the negotiation with representatives ofthe University of the State of .New York and the subsequent introduction of an approved credit system of college grade for the Art School. In addition, Mr. Clark has directed the styling of the various school publications, and has conducted and analyzed two stu- dent questionnaires with a view to determining program preferences and registration trends. Za fi From honor graduate to instructor to Dean has been the path followed by George F. Bateman in The Cooper Union. Except for his service in the World War, Dean Bateman has worked constant- ly in the school since his graduation from the Day School of Engineering in 1907. Like a Horatio Alger hero, Dean Bateman was invited to become aneinstructor after four years as an excellent student, earned the title of Professor and was later appointed Head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering. In 1931, Professor Bateman became acting Dean and in l933, Dean of the Schools of Engineering. Together with his duties as Dean, he has con- tinued his work on the aptitudes of students and has this past year initiated several studies re- lating to the definition and determination of professional aptitudes, to complete the courses of instruction. He has accomplished much in the assignment of total effort hours of each suhject in order to protect the student from overburdened programs. Dean Bateman has demonstrated his interest in student extra-curricular activities by fostering the weekly musicale. This interest car- ries over from his Chairmanship of the Student Relations Committee. His readiness to counsel and help the student has gained him the confidence of the student hodv. 7a.4zZ.,f Among the first school personalities introduced to every freshman class is Professor Walter S. Watson. Students seek him out sooner or later, some because they are puzzled or have questions, others because they are in trouble and find him a source of renewed confidence. Presiding over the office of Admissions and Student Relations, Professor Watson has collected the odds and ends of many departments and stray bits of fact lost or forgotten elsewhere. This habit of collecting has been carried over from his youth when he started collecting experi- ence by holding jobs of all sorts: physics and chemistry teacher, migrant field laborer, garage mechanic, trouble shooter and high tension man, toll engineer, astronomer, traveler, and scien- tist. His jobs have taken him far from his home state of Wisconsin into deserts, mountains, over several continents, and finally to New York City and The Cooper Union. lt is because of his quality of sympathetic listening and the ability to suggest practical solu- tions that Professor Watson has been so well-liked in the school. Since he came to The Cooper Union two years ago, he has always been ready to guide the student and help him hurdle any difficulties which he may encounter in his school life. Miami' One of the busiest and most active men in the Art School is the Assistant Art Director, Es- mond Shaw. He began in The Cooper Union in 1932 as an instructor in lettering one night a week. Today he teaches advanced architectural design, heads the Department of Architecture, supervises the Night Art School, and fills the post of Assistant Art Director. ln addition to these duties he finds time to be faculty adviser to the Cable, to represent the Art School on the Faculty Committee on Student Relations, and to prepare and submit for the approval of the University of the State of New York the revised version of contemplated courses in architecture in the Night School of Art leading to a degree of Bachelor of Architecture. Mr. Shaw believes in the creative approach to art, and has carried this out in the classroom where he has always presented his students with specific problems. He is immensely proud that his students have won the Sachs Furniture Co. competition in interior design three times running and thus made the cup a permanent possession of the school. Personal contacts with Mr. Shaw have aided students in smoothing out their difliculties, and the many who have applied to him have found him a ready and willing listener. r graduates graduates graduate X X 191111941 19411911 g d t g ll t g d t 00:0 911 1911 la 11111 Illl farewell Klglll 111111 1111 11111111 111.11 111 11111 tlllllf 11-1 11 rl 111 1111111 L11111 I6 11.15 1113111 11111 .1 1 .1-- 1411.1 11 11 llt 11 ll 1111111 11111 11111111 11 1111111111 the -11111111 111 11111 ll 11111 111 11111 11.11111 XSL 111111111-H111 -u 11111111 Ill - ll 11, 1111 111 11 111111-.11111 11 .111 111 1.1111 - .1t1111t111g 11.111116 .111rP--1- 111.111-1 1111 IK 1111111 1 111.11111111f 111111111 1111 l1111ug11t 11111111 11: 1 .1- .llll 11 1 911 111 1.111 ll' 1 1.11111 11 11 111111111.111 1 111-1 11.111161 NC .1 111 Nl 11111 .1 ffu 1 Il .1 1 . 1 1.111 IC N111 C1111 1111111 1l.lN NIJCIII 11111111 1611- 11111111111g 111111111 11 1ll11Ll11H .1 1011111161111 to 2116 .1t111111 1111111111 1 .1- 11 Sl 1 1111 . -1 1111111 1 ll - 11-1 1 1 .1 11111111111 11 1111 11111-1 11--1111 Cl 1 -1111111 1111 111111 65109111 11111 111 111.11111g 1 11111111 11 111 111.11 11 11- 11 1.1 11 1.1 111- -111111111 11.1- 111.1 111111 111 llll 11111 g1.1 1 - IF 111.11 11 11 .1111 111 .11 1111111 g11.1 ll .1--ul .11 1 - - .

Besides coming late, he usually leaves late because of his work for the Pioneer. Sy has a dual personality, for he confesses his hobbies to be chess, burlesque shows and women. His ambition is to retire at 25. With those hobbies this is nmlerstandable. Being President of the Night, Chapter of the A.S. M.E., their representative to the Newark Conven- tion, and swinging the A.S.M.E. contest for the best paper delivered are only a few of the accom- plishments of Jack Alpert. Aside from working days and attending school at night, .lack man- aged to find time to enjoy football and swimming in between commuting to Brooklyn. Howard Anderson, called Pewee by his friends, of which he has many, has established quite a reputation for himself. He solves all problems, from the most difficult to the most simple, the long way-with his twenty-inch slide rule. He and his renowned slide rule were famous enough to be mimicked on the legitimate stage by Mr. Entenmann at the A.S.M.E. dinner. Albert Balinz, the boy from Yonkers, was one man who appreciated the majestic beauty of the Hudson River. He never could forget his work- ing l?l days on the Hudson River Day Line. We never knew that Southern girls were so beautiful until Al let us in on the secret via some pictures he had taken during one summer's trip. His am- bition is to be an engineering executive. lack Berger is the midget of the C.E.'s but that does not detract from his ability. The answers are not enough for Jack, the whys and where- fores are more important--too bad be wasn't born in Missouri. An active member of Alpha Blu Sigma, his ambition centers about structural design. lie will get there, too, if they don't use him for a rivet first. Charles Bernstein is a cheerful sort of fellow- that is, until he has to solve a problemg then his face acquires that martyr-like look that seems to be so typical of many Cooper students. But, unlike many others, Charlie solves those self- same problems with the capability of a real Chem- ical Engineer. He hails from Brooklyn, but his courtesy at all times offsets this handicap. Stanley Birzdman is a hard working NLE. whose ambition is to own a metal fabricating plant. Aside from working as an engineer during the day and attending school in the evenings, Stan Ends time to build scale model airplanes and invent machines and devices. He also takes active part in sports, likes to listen to concerts, and is a member of both the A.S.M.E. and S.A.E. Everett Birmingham is the Chemical Engineers' famous southpaw softball pitcher and undoubtedly the most likeable fellow in the Senior Class. Be- sides averaging four dates a week, he has made a fine school record. A basketball star, his hobbies are photography, dancing, tennis, movies and Fran- ces. He lists his only ambition as Frances, but his classmates insist that he's the Chemical En- gineer most likely to succeed. rculuutes Paul Bobay is Treasurer of the Camera Club and is also an active member of the Track Club. He is an all-round athlete, and at one time was con- sidering the possibility of studying physical educa- tion for a career. He has written sports columns for the Pioneer. His moral fortitude in commut- ing every day from way out Yonkers has always commanded respect from his classmates. Dan Borsiczky is the orator of the Chemists. His fiuent discourses upon widely separated topics amaze our noble professors. Dan's hobbies are photography and bowlingg his vices, beer and Esquire. Although he lives in Plainfield, he is always on hand to drive his squad to renewed efforts in the Unit Operations Lab. A convincing speaker and a leader, Dan should do well in later life. The big boy of the Chemical Engineers is Hessel Bouma. Hess uses his six foot-something height to good advantage on our varsity basketball team. Slim's build is deceiving, for he has played full games repeatedly, and that takes plenty of en- durance. His hobbies are painting, hunting, fish- ing, and listening to classical music. His ambition is, of all things, to be a Chemical Engineer. Louis Brooks is taking the hig step in ,lune-mar- riage and graduation both. Lou has the very for- tunate knack of knocking out 100722 on quizzes while the rest of us are still knocking the bugs out of our slide rules. Beneath his quiet exterior he combines a good mind with a sense of humor. He's sure to make a good husband and mechanical engineer. Van Pelt Brower is the all-around man of the class. Besides doing most of his homework, he has found time to produce the Freshman Recep- tion, brighten our classes with assorted remarks, jokes, puns, and immortalize himself by writing our school song. Van likes dancing, movies, and plays a wicked trombone. Gifted with such ver- satility, Van Pelt should become quite a person- age in the world outside. graduates John Tyrone Caswell is the Beau Brummel' of the Electrical Engineering class who must go danc- ing at least once a week, if you can call it that. Besides being a proud member of squad one in EE. Labs lremember?! ,lohn is the President of the A.l.E.E., Vice-President of his class, a partici- pator in the intramural softball and basketball games, and a member of M.A.O. William Charney is the aggressive type, but in a friendly, comradely sort of way. Whereas most engineers are concerned with slide rules and calculus, titration and megacycles, Bill's outlook encompasses much more, he is equally at home in the lab or in a round table discussion of prob- lems of contemporary society. His many attri- butes will undoubtedly carry him beyond those horizons he has set for himself. Julius Churlow, otherwise known as Julie, is the strong, silent type. not saying anything unless it's worth saying. His spare time is taken up by being active in the Alpha Blu Sigma fraternity and the student branch of the A.l.E.E. He hasn't any serious heart interest, but is very interested in the continued well-being of Can- ada: one Canadian in particular. He must get around! Charles Dapper Cichoslri. of the Cichoski-Dunn team, is the Electrical Engineer who takes pride in his infallible squad No. 1. Waterpolo was the only sport inducing Charlie to attend gym. Cas was Sophomore Class Treasurer, Secretary of the Newman Club, and Sports Editor of the Cable. The Senior year found Charlie as Chairman of the Senior Committee and President of Omega Delta Phi Fraternity. George Clark distinguished himself in many var- ied extra-curricular activities. He was Sports Edi- tor of the Pioneer and Cable. George received the Cold C and was President of both his Sopho- more and junior class. In his spare time he man- aged the softball team. One would think that his school work would never have been neglected, but it was to his credit that he never fell behind. Ira Bernard Cohen is one of those little men who is determined to make good in this big world. He is an active member of Mu Alpha Omicront, and also the student chapter of the A.I.E.E'. Ira will be glad to get back to a normal existence that will include his favorite hobbies. These include photography, boating, sees ing many movies, and listening to good music. Irving Colen is one of those say-little do-much fellows. ln his own little way Irv has become quite an expert authority on the theatre. His weakness is snapshots, stamps and symphonies, and should make out very well, whatever his endeavor. Irv is an active member of the A.I.Ch.E., and he is determined to fulfill his ambition to become a top-notch Chemical Engineer. Raymond Costa is, along with George Ferrigni, our class politician. He has been active in the A.l.Ch.E. for three years and did a fine job ar- ranging the A.l.Ch.E. dinner this year. Ray's en- tertainment is music, movies, and photography. He wants to get an engineering position fast and then get married. Oh. yes, he has a low number in the draft, but he can dream, can't he? Herman Joseph Decker was always in a hurry to catch that train to North Bergen, New Jer- sey. ln spite of this he had enough energy left to take an active part in a great many extra- curricular activities. For two years he was class President, an officer of P.S.0. and a member of Nl.A.0. Herman's future lies in elevator en- gineering-sooooo-to the top, boy. . flLgllSl Dege, a strong, conservative element of the Chemical Engineers, has had his troubles defend- ing his home town-Jersey City. Besides mixing solutions, Augie has the ability to sing. play piano, and paint. With his crony, Everson, he has consumed tnany gallons of coffee between his classes. Augie's activities consisted of the Luth- eran Club, A.l.Ch.E. and Omega Delta Phi, of which he was the President. Listening to Sidney Deulsclfs off-key whistling of operas explains why some of us are almost-you know what. Sid loves classical music and claims that he can think best when it blasts forth from ltis radio. He is a member of the A.l.E.lf. and Nl.A.0. His ambition is communications engi- neering and to realize this, he devotes much time to his study. Perhaps George DiMonico was so frequently awakened by lectures that he always managed to complete his homework. Yet many a vision of perfectly operating gadgets was exploded by these awakenings. If the M.A.0. had heard of this-Afioshl P.S. George tried drawing for l'ncle Sam's battleships, but got into a pipe dream-he's back designing mechanical jiggers. El John Dishurk came into the world with a bang, on the fourth of July. Still makes a big noise when he does anything. ls so versatile that he designs anything from a petticoat to a power- plant. He has beautiful eyes-especially when he's dreaming. The technician in him says his future is Mechanical Engineering. The artist in him prompts him to say that his old age will be spent in the country-painting. Samuel Curly Dixon has long been the class daddy. Besides looking after Red Gallery, Sam's pleasant personality has made him one of the most endeared fellows in his class. As Bursar of MAD. he proved his worth. Sam confesses to being a bowler. But confession is 8001i-for the soul, so we forgive him. ,-is for his ambition to be a college professor. he cer- tainly looks the part. Abe Dorfnmn is one of the best liked fellows in his class. With all the odds of an NLE. course at Cooper and designing business machines forty hours a week against him, Abe has kept his good nature and sense of humor intact. ln extra- curricular activities Abe has been fifth year class Treasurer, senior S.A.E. representative. and a mem- ber of the A.S.5I.E. ruduates Alton H. DuFlon, of the team Dihfonico, DuFlon, Hampton and Kryger, is anxious to put into prac- tice the many facts absorbed while at Cooper. He would, if possible, do so in the course of travel-his life's ambition. Al has participated in many extra-curricular activities, having held the of- fices of class President and Secretary, Secretary of the A.S.Bf.E. and is a member of S.A.E. Albert Dunn, of the Dunn-Cichoski team, is the handsome Mechanical Engineer who managed to complete his work to-date before the end of every semester. Being the athletic type. he participated in intramural baseball and waterpolo of which he was the manager. Al also was the Sports Editor of the Cable, Sophomore Class President, Treas- urer of Omega Delta Phi and an .N.5.Nl.E. mem- ber. Cooper l'nion Lutheran Club George Andrew Lin- coln Emerson, the pride of Tuckahoe. has engaged in many extra-curricular activities. This gad-about was associated with the Freshman Afliair, Dance Committee and Senior Affair Committee. He was Sophomore Class Secretary. Cable Business Man- ager, and is a member of the Ex Post Facto and Omega Delta Phi. His only ambition is to try to keep his decrepit car in operation. Ceorge Ferrigni is endowed with ability to a sur- prising degree, being Secretary and President of the A.l.Ch.E. Active in intramural basketball and baseball. Get-p is also an artist with a color cam- era. llis extra-curricular activities. however. have not interfered with his studies for Geep is re- garded as an authority on Chemical Engineering subjects. When in doubt ask George for his opin- ion-you may depend on it. Hartley Buck Field is one of our class athletes. He has been the mainstay of the intramural bas- ketball team for three years. Buck played on the championship softball team of 1940. When not playing ball or studying Chemical Engineering, Hartley likes stamp collecting. He belongs to the Lutheran Club and the A.l.Ch.E. Buck's ambi- tion is a fine thought- to enjoy life. graduates Abraham Franlfel entered the Cooper Union as an advanced student having previously obtained his B.S. degree from Brooklyn College. As his first philanthropic effort he would like to contribute to the C.U. founder's fund. He is a member of the A.S.M.E. and hopes eventually to become a com- petent engineer. For relaxation, he prefers hand- ball and tennis. Ed Frost claims that ne has never overslept his station in all his years of commuting to Jersey. It seems that the practice he obtained in staying up all night while playing bass in a band has helped him a great deal at Cooper l'nion. He was a mem- ber of the school's honor society, Mu Alpha Omi- cron, and the backbone of the class bowling team. Damon and Pythias -Gallery and Dixon. .lohn li. is the junior member of this famous duo. llis carrot topped frame can always be seen bobbing along behind Curley, John is a confirmed bowling addict. Though his scores put him in the beginners class, for a stein of beer he'll bowl any weakling. Beside bowling, John handled the duties of the class treasury. That big quiet EE. fellow who always seems to know the right answer to the question is George Cebrinn. Gabe-'s flaming ambition is to become a communication engineer and so he is intensely concentrating on the study of radio. Occasionally he does take time off to enjoy a little bit of swimming, motoring and music. Gabe has been an active member of the A.l.E.E. Little Tell Cold, one of our three Schweinberg Scholarship men, foresook the sanctity of the Bor- ough of Manhattan to move into the uncertain wilds of Brooklyn. However, he managed to blaze a trail through these wilds and left in his wake: the Vice-Presidency of the Math Club, member- ship on the class basketball, water polo and basea ball teams, and an honor course in internal com- bustion engines. Seymour Coldsteinks bad case of nerves can be traced, he says, to his stay at Cooper Union. Si fa member of the A.I.E.E.t gets excited over al- most anything at all and usually dominates an argument, reducing it to a monologue. But a nice classical melody or drive in his car fif it may be called such? can soothe those sensitive feelings of his. Louis Gordon is one of those people who won't have any trouble finding something to occupy his spare time. He is happily married, and can boast of two of the most wonderful offsprings, whose pictures he will flash at any provocation. Lou has only one complaint about his Alma Mater: he claims that it has left him feeling like a fish out of water. Arthur Collfricrl is one of the quiet members of hilarious Electrical Engineering Class, who is al' ways ready for an argttment. Being a Schwein- berg Scholarship man in his earlier years, he would mainly discuss educational topics. Never will his Squad No. 1 forget Artie's exclamation Wait a minute just before closing the switch. Arthur is a member of the A.I.E.E. of which he was Vice-President. Charles Claurle Creberl, he of the red hair. likes the E.E. courses so well that he is considering writing a textbook in Electrical Engineering in collaboration with Bill Neary. Only this hook, they insist, will be written so that even they can understand it. Charlie is a member of tlte A.l.E.E. and PSU. and likes lo swim. dance and drive anything that is fast. Irvipg Guralnick, like many other Civil Engineers, would like to obtain a position in city planning after about five years of diversified engineering experience. He plays the piano, the mandolin, and the harmonica, and has recently taken up the study of the violin. He has also dabbled a bit in psychology, since he feels it necessary for a city planner to understand such matters. William Hampton, the second member of the team of DuFlon, DiNIonico, and Kryger, al- though a cosmopolite for only the past six years, worked hard throughout his school life to catch up to his city slicker pals. During 1939, he decided to be married to a city gal, in order to get his lab reports typed up, much to the envy of his co-workers. The poetic sounding name of Hans Hansen be- longs to this Jerseyite. Commuting on the slow moving Pennsylvania Railroad had one virtue, ac- cording to Hans. That is, it allowed him enough time to study and is in large part responsible for his election to Mu Alpha Omicron. Hans is a budding automotive engineer at which he has been engaged for the past six years. Alfred Thomas Hasselbaclt is another one of those fugitives from Brooklyn. For two years running Al has been an officer of the A.l.E.E. He is a quiet fellow and has gained the reputation nf always being a gentleman. even in Cooper lnion. Despite all this he prefers brunettes the has to, he married onet. Best of luck to one of our future Electrical Engineers. Joseph Herman. whose whispered asides convulsed his neighbors throughout tlte years, helped make class life bearahle. He made the comments with a blank face. leaving all of his classmates to re- ceive the glarcs of the teachers aftcr the laughter had subsided. loc. whose favorite label for his classmates was Coon-boy. made an extensive tour of the West with Nlanson during the summer. Second Lieutenant William V. Hollander received the toughest blow of all in the Electrical Engineer- ing Class when he was called to colors in the mid- dle oflhis senior year. Ir is rumored, however, that Bill will come back to complete his course. During his school days, Bill managed to be Fenc- ing Club President, Pioneer Circulation Manager, and a proud owner and operator of a bicycle. raduates xfrllzur Holnzs is a quiet person who has to be well-known in order to bc appreciated. lt was a matter of class amazement where Arty obtained the candy that he always devoured between classes. llis acquaintanceship with the Art School was very wide, since he was a devotee of the Dancing Club. His hobby is playing paddle tennis during the lunch period. Edtcanl Iehle has almost given up trying to make instructors pronounce his name correctly. Say it so: ,lay-lee. Ah perfect! Ed has been quite active in extra-curricular activities. He is Grand Master of P.S.0. and a member of A.l.E.E. and NI.A.O. E.,l. has every chance of fulfilling his ambition of becoming a successful design engineer. He en- joys reading, music and the theater. Morris jghnsan, 3 Chemical Engineering stu- dent, woulil at any time much rather argue than talk. Moe is one of the leaders of the class, so we might find morals involved if we stopped to look for them. He is a regular feller but bowls consistantly under 115. There is no man in Cooper who is more certain he's right when he-'s right than Moe. Andrew Karr is a dangerous fellow to bring near your car, for worming into the grease covered in- testines of an auto is his favorite hobby. It's sur- prising for a Ch.E. but it's the truth, so help us. In spite of this obvious strain on one's friendships, Andy is very much admired by all who know him, and was made President of 4K.l.Ch.E. in his senior year. Herbert Kaufman is the class authority on con- struction methods and labor troubles in the build- ing industries. Last summer, when he was em- ployed by a building contractor, he gained consid- erable experience in the field with problems of the building trade. As a result, he has formulated a plan which he believes would put an end to ir- responsible unions and would substitute coopera- tion between employer and employee. graduates William Keary, Jersey City's contribution to Cooper, is one of the outstanding athletes in the Chemical Engineering Class. He played varsity basketball for four years and is now President of the Newman Club. His preferred entertainment is dancing, movies, and reading to which Bill offers most of his time when not studying. Handicraft, his favorite hobby, keeps Bill busy the rest of his free time. .lack Keene is one of the main bulwarks of the ll. S. Navy's design department. His success in the defense field should surely compensate for his faculty of saying the wrong things at the right times or the right things at the wrong times, take your choice. .lack did, and thus was the cause of many a Chemical Engineering stu- dent burning the midnight oil. When you see a bulb flash at any of the school affairs, the smiling face behind the camera is in- variably that of George Kline. He has faithfully taken pictures for the Cable and Pioneer for four years. George presided over the Camera Club for two years then refused a third term. Besides all this he plays ice hockey, listens to swing records, and plays the piano. Albert Koehlefs good-natured smile is what you remember longest, although why anybody at Cooper should smile gets us. His hobby is photography and photographical chemistry. Al is one of the silent partners of the Big Four Brain Trust and can usually be located munching a dough- nut at the Sagamore. Al is a member of the A.I.Ch.E. ln a quiet, unassuming and conscientious manner. Fred V. Koenig will receive his diploma and his study of Mechanical Engineering here at Cooper Union will be terminated. Well liked and admired by all who know him, students, faculty, and fellow members 'of the A.S.M.E., Fred has come through these six years with a minimum of fanfare, yet on the whole quite successfully. John Kossak's prime ambition is to become a big executive. Not just any big exec. but a big executive in industrial sales work marketing chem- ical products. His hobbies include dancing, the theatre, and bowling. Oh, yes, we almost forgot chemistry. Sid's a member of the A.l.Ch.E. The word big we have used so much here is quite natural since he is at least six feet tall. Lester Kryger is one quarter of the team of DiMonico, DuFlon, Hampton and Kryger- specializers in successful operation 4'?t of labora- tory equipment. Les has made many trips to the Adirondacks, including the unforgettable canoe trip with DuFlon and Dihlonico. He is a member of the A.S.Nl.E. and S.A.E. and is employed in an engineering department of the automotive industry. Henry Kubisra has in the six years spent here at Cooper Union, succeeded in establishing himself as the class critic. With a natural and impressive facility, more becoming to a writer than an en- gineer. he spins the various courses at Cooper like the Sperry Cyroscopes, which he helps build. Be- hind his analytical outlook lie the makings of a fine and successful Mechanical Engineer. Alexander Kwasiborski is another Manhattan boy who emigrated to Brooklyn. ln spite of this, he became the Vice-Chancellor of the school's honor society, Mu Alpha Omicron. Like Holms, Kwasi was well acquainted with the Art School. He broadened his cultural life by attending the Danc- ing Club. His hobby is reading but he didn't have a chance to indulge in it during his years at Cooper. Joseph Patrick Larkin, although an Electrical En- gineering student, enjoys experimenting in Chem- istry. Ile is also an addict to that universal scourge known as shutter-phobia. Pat, set in ways though he may be, is very much liked by his fellow members in the A.I.E.E. and the P.S.O. Pat's greatest form of entertainment and relaxa- tion is Petty's cartoons in the Esquire magazine. Benny Lax, another Schweinberg Scholarship man, had the secret urge to be an opera singer. Many a time we were lulled to sleep by his pleas- ant renditions of operatic arias during Machine Design Drawing Class. While not singing, Benny indulged in seeing the Math Club through its trials and tribulations and helped decide the Pioneer's policy through his positinn on the Pio- neer Board of Control. When Benjamin Levinson receives his diploma, watch his smoke. Besides fulfilling his ambition to become an electrical engineer, Ben intends to absorb enough fishing, baseball, theatre, etc., to make up for all he was forced to miss during his stay at Cooper llnion. lle does, however, consider his time well spent as far as facts ab- sorbed and friendships made are concerned. H Ben Basil Lewis had an innocent looking face, but a mind which was ever ready to torment class- mates and teachers alike. His I don't get it drove many instructors to near insanity and many students from their sleep. Ben is a student of classical music, a Ham 4W2HjkP and an ardent admirer of brunettes. .lust another optimistic Dodgerite who predicts positively a pennant in l958. Lawrence Lindquist, or Larry as he is known to his friends, personifies the story of the small town boy comes to the big city. Hailing from Manistique, Michigan, with a carload of Mun- chausen yarns and a terrific sense of humor, Larry has made life brighter at Cooper Union for all of his friends. He intends to go West after graduation and practice bowling and mechanical engineering. Herman Zeke Long was class athlete, being both a member of the basketball team and a softball star. Zeke is an S.A.E.g to supplement his knowledge he bought a car. A familiar sight is Zeke explaining his difficulties to Siefried. His mimicry is excellent, livening up dull periods. Herman generally found some easy method and spent his time kidding the rest about their extra work. ruduutes Herbert Luther is that harried-looking fellow you see around occasionally, when he is not en- grossed in the ceaseless pursuit of those elusive vitamins-A, B, C, etc. Honest, hardworking, Herb is a great guy to have around. Oh, yes, he belongs to a frat-the one which requires for membership experience in connubial bliss. In other words, he's married. Daniel Marshall Marsiellar is one of his class' best liked students, as attested by the large num- ber of friends he made in class and the A.l.E.E. His'charming wife will be among those cheer- ing when be finally obtains his diploma. Dan, being a shutter-bug in his own right, aims to- ward the enjoyment of a full life and the docu- mentation of it, in his prints. The little man who is always there, Joseph Maurin professes a weakness for blondes. In reality, however, his real enjoyment is in solv- ing difficult problems. lt is a well-known fact that ,loe relaxes by doing humdingers in Diflerential Equations. He was elected into the M.A.0., and is also a member of the A.l.Ch.E. and his ambition is to become an instructor of engineering. Frank McGinnis is as Irish as his cheerful face. Mac is a firm believer that participation in extra-curricular activities helps broaden one. Be- cause of his personality and ability, he has been class Treasurer for three years, President in his fourth year, Business Manager of the Cable in 1936, and a member of the A.I.E.E. Another E.E. is Ralph lllerlnislfy, Sports Editor of the Pioneer. Ralph is also a member of Lambda Tau, and the Camera Club. In his junior year he was Assistant Sports Editor of both the Cable and the Pioneer. This year he gained the Cold C award. His favorite sport to watch is football. His favorite to play is soccer: he tried to form a Cooper soccer team several years ago. graduates Samuel Stan', .llansan was officially proclaimed the class genius. He was one of the three Schwein- herg Scholarship holders that the class boasted of. The chief complaint was that he was a class aver- age raiser. He was especially talented in Mathe- matics and was a member of the school Math Team. Stan was also President of the Math Club, delivering several interesting talks on vari- ous topics. Lewis Charles Marino is one of the Chemical Engineers' outstanding athletes. He has been a member of the softball team for four years and perhaps longer. Lew sports P.S.O. and A.l.Ch.E. pins on,his lapels at all times and he is a well- liked member in both organizations. His favorite diversions range all the way from serious music to Donald Duck. Jack Meng is one of the O.D.P. boys who would rather be hunting or 'Fishing in the deep woods than in any Chemical Engineering laboratory. jack is one of our intramural basketball and baseball aces. When there is nothing doing at the frat house, of which ,lack is Secretary, he returns to Ridgewood where there is plenty of space for his hobby, woodcraft and camping. William john .lleringer is the acknowledged sartorial leader of the E.E.'s. Bill is quite frank as to what is his ambition. It is purely pecun- iary and he is content to let others reap the glory, fame. or whatever it might be called, that engineers are supposed to gather with the years. Bill was a member of the .-X.l.E.E.. is inter- ested in photography and music. Charles Montross is one of the quieter members of the class. He was never caught cutting his last period Thursday night to go bowling. Oh. no? While still at Cooper l'nion he received his BA. from N.Y.l'. Charlie keeps well posted on con- temporary literature and the theater, and is ami- able and well-liked by both the faculty and the students. Tennis is his racket, says Charlie. Ooh! Robert Patsy Mulligan says, 'iDon't worry, fel- lows, they can't Hunk more than half the classg just get in the first half. Bob is a master at doing what's required and doing it well. He is one of the few men that finished the six year Night Tech course in six years which proves that it's OK. to copy someone else's homework as long as you know what you're doing. Herman Naclf, the Pride of Flatbush, is another boy who needs a new alarm clock. However, he seems to absorb plenty of knowledge once he arrives at school. Hermie does not say much but he is undoubtedly the genius of the Chem. Class. Herman is an amateur photographer and prefers sports and the theater for entertainment. He is Secretary of Xl..-LO., the school honor society. Leon Nash is a firm believer in streamlining. The past year has seen a startling change come over him. He suddenly sprang from a gangling student to a cultured gentleman. Leon has been the lead- ing class athlete, participating in varsity and inter- class ball games. His hobbies are too numerous to mention in this space yet we can't resist saying that he is one of our leading bowlers. Willirun john Weary is one of that twosome fCharles Grebert is the otherl who is going to write an EE book. He is a member of A.l.E.E. and P.S.0. Bill likes married life but complains that so far he hasn't been able to fully enjoy it. A chain smoker par excellence, he has also done more than his share in increasing the dividends of the Ruppert Breweries. Here is a fellow who is well liked and admired by all his friends and classmates. Henry M. Nelson has a good deal of the class ambition. as attested by his successful completion of studies for Chemical lfngineering. Besides being an ex- cellent student, llenry is a lover of all that is good and beautiful, as attested by his appreciation of the Art School girls. Richard V. 0'Donnr'll, although one of the small- est men, physically, in our class, is by no. means the shortest one on brains. In his quiet, unobtru- sive way, Richard has eome through his classes in fine style and is well on his way to fulfill his ambition of becoming a research engineer. He is a member of the A.l.E.l'f. and likes bicycling, mo- toring and music. Bill 0'Keefe is one fourth of the Cole, Schmitz, Koehler and 0'Keefe clique. This unique Brain Trust has set a standard in COOPERa- tion, that has enabled its members to place among the top ranking scholars of the class. Bill has the makings of a subtle comedian, and will long be remembered as a prankster by his fellow classmates and members of the A.I.Ch.E. and 0.D.P. John Pupamarcos, though of few words and as quiet as a mouse. is a man to tie to. John always knows his stuff lt is surprising how John man- aged to stay that way to the end in that unsur- passed. perpetually joking, LE. class. The class never succeeded in persuading John that the members of the fair sex are harmless. ,lohn was Treasurer of the A.l.E.E. Emil Prrnsfty was tlte tallest boy in the Nl.l'l. Class. The Freshmen would still he an ignorant lot if it were not for Emil's fine work on the Freshman Handbook. Besides this. Emil found time tclon't ask where because we don't know? to aid the Senior Class Entertainment Committee, attend German 'and Chess Club meetings, and play on the class basketball and baseball teams. Steve Purellrn is the Secretary of the Athletic As' sociation and is a member of the Varsity Basket- ball Team. He is the sports expert of the class, and delights in exhibiting his knowledge of play- ers and clubs in major league athletics by con- tinually quoting records, batting averages, etc. Ile has shown particular aptitude in coining pungent phrases that have become part of the class jargon. graduates Harold Parsekian is one of those fellows who will long be remembered by his many friends and classmates. Always Hready, willing and able to lend a hand, this unassuming chap has made deep tracks where it counts. One of the few married men of the class, Harold is a lover of sunshine and regularly takes the little lady to Florida, school or no school. Joseph Perlman, the potentially successful Ble- chanical Engineer, has been obliged to appor- tion his time between his job with the Federal Government and the completion of his studies here at The Cooper Union. His instructors see so little of him that they forget what a really fine student he is until he bowls them over with his exceptionally high grades in all the examinations. Henry Peters is the serious-minded influence in the senior class and also on the A.I.Ch.E. A lover of classical music, Pete's sudden decision to be- come a gentleman farmer was a surprising shock to the class until he broke the news that he had become a proud daddy. I wouldn't raise my son to be an engineer, says Pete. Amen, says we. Charles A. Pinto fworry, worry, worry! is on his way to becoming' a successful structural en- gineer-sorry, boys, the rest is an army secret, Charlie is an indispensable man. He supplies entertainment for the C.E.'s with vocal renditties of all the operas. He is a graduate of De Witt Clinton and an active member of Phi Sigma Omega. Peter P. Poveromo, the architect of the C.E.'s and always quoting the building code, is a con- scientious worker, deliberate and thorough. You can always depend on Pete for an encouraging word in the drawing room: he'll tell you that his drawing is more overdue and worse than yours-which it isn't. He is-well equipped to achieve his goal in the architecthral-engineering field. graduates George Red Pratt was one of our acquisitions from the Day School, and without any fanfare at all took himself a wife in his senior year at the school. George, with the ever-smiling coun- tenance, has good-naturedly been the butt of many of our jokes. But George doesn't mind these goat-like antics. He says they give him a deep feeling of peace. Edward Rathje is one of our many students who migrate to and from New jersey every day. He is very much interested in dancing, and inci- dentally, is married to his dancing partner. Ed is a big, serious fellow who is always in good humor, and promises that he will feel better when he is able to get eight hours sleep regu- larly. More power to you, Ed. You can always tell Charles W. Reck after an exam-he looks like a heck of a reck. He may fly off the handle once in a while, but that may be due to the fact that he is connected with a gas refining organization. lle hails from Stuyvesant High and shows great aptitude as a concrete and highway engineer. We're sure lte'll get there. One of the members of the class who will not be forgotten easily is Harry Roistacher. He has been active on the Blanket Fee Committee, Pioneer staff, and other committees. His work as Night Editor earned him membership into Lambda Tau, also Alpha Mu Sigma. The impish gleam in his eye, the way he bowls, the sharp way he dresses cannot be easily forgotten. Melvin Rozene was Vice-President of the Class of 1936 and earned the respect of his classmates. He is every inch an engineer-every other inch, any- way. He hails from Connecticut-Bridgeport, we think, and does that city proud. Mel distinguishes himself by quoting Thermodynamical formulae and derivations. Mel is well liked by his class- mates and fellow members of the A.I.Ch.E. for his friendly personality. The class infant and one of the youngest grad- uates of Cooper Union is none other than Ba- zooka man Harvey Sachs. How well one recalls Harve serenading the instructors before the Christ- mas vacations, and the mild insanity characteris- tics of the Senior E.E.'s which he and Basil con- tributed. ln spite of that supposed innocent look . . . my, my! Harve rates favorably with the class in all respects. Charles Schajfner, one of the few Civil Engineers, is President of the Senior Class, Vice-President of the Student Council, Vice-President of the Omega Delta Phi Fraternity, and Co-Captain of the Bas- ketball Team. Charles has played basketball for Cooper since he entered the school and earned the acclaim of the student body for his athletic abili- ties, sportsmanship, and his capacity for shoulder- ing executive responsibility. Irving Scheinbart is a member of the Swimming Class, and has played on the Varsity Basketball Team. He has also been a regular participant in intramural softball. He advocates government ex- pansion in the utilities field and has devoted con- siderable time to the TNA. lle intends entering the civil service with the hope of being placed in some large utilities project. Fred Schmitz is number two man in the brain trust lCole, Schmitz, Koehler, and 0'KeefeP. Now Fred is what's known as a man's man. He likes nbroads, beer Beethoven, and books un- quote, and exclaimed bitterly that whatever he prefers is either illegal, immoral. or fattening. Fred, whose. ambition is tied up with Chemical Engineering, is also a member. of the 0.D.P. Robert Zeke Schumacher says, With guys like Mulligan and Sigman in the class, I've had less schoolwork to do for the past two years than if I didn't go to school. Between presiding over the Student Council and engaging in other activities as Class President, Bob sometimes manages to at- tend a class. He works during the day as a Civil Engineer in the construction industry. ferry Selman has long been the class Complex xariablef' His shy, reticent manner' would never lead one to believe that, besides being an excellent student and a member of the M.A.O., he is also an accomplished short story writer, ping-pong player and Braille enthusiast. His story Sym- phony in a Butcher Store won a prize in the seventh annual college short story contest, 1940. Whenever anyone would speak of Paul Siefried, we would immediately draw,a mental image of him. We would see Paul staggering down the hallway to his classroom loaded with his T square, triangles, and slide-rule under one arm, and books under the other. Quiet and retiring though Paul may be, he, nevertheless, could be depended upon to come to the fore when the occasion demanded it. H Edwin Serveson, who is constantly defending his home town of Whippany. N. J., displays a variety of interests. He plays the guitar and the har- monica and builds airplane models as a hobby. ln addition, he possesses considerable ability as a public speaker. Ed has worked with tar and asphalt contractors, and as a result, intends to make highway engineering his profession. When Lawrence lay Siegel entered Cooper l'nion he fulfilled a four 'ear ambition. Now after six years of hard and diligent work, Larry is about to reap his rewards. He plans to utilize his education as a Mechanical Engineer to the best of his ability, so that these past years shall not have been in vain. His determination will carry him to the itop. If the-re's a sleepier or hungrier man in town than Leslie Siegle-well, you know Mseein' is believing. His Ch.E. Profs. never can tell whether he is sleeping or thinking when in class until he topples from his chair. Leslie spends a good deal of his waking moments turning cartwheels and climbing from the cold water pipes in the labs. That may perhaps explain why so many restive periods. ruduates Hy Satchel Sigmun says, Take it easy, fel- lows, if you hand in your drawing now, you'll get another assignment. lt's a pleasure to be in a class with fellows like Hy and see how much work the class below us has to do, because it's not organized. Hy himself is, however, a top-notch student, very active in the school A.S.C.E., and a good reason why we had a lot of fun in our class. joseph Spery Sperazza was the Good Samaritan of the class. He always put himself out to help someone. Spery had the knack of coming in with all his problems solved. He was said to he so efficient that he did calculations while sleeping. This statement was denied. It is rumored that his inspiration is the girl across the way. Joe relaxes as a German Club member. Now we come to that mighty atom, that dynamic bit of concentrated energy, Samuel we wuz robbed Spool. Many can still hear that dictating voice of the Pioneer Editor-in-Chief ringing out from that little office in the cellar. Sam also over- exercised his vocal cords at the varsity basketball games. Cess was Sports Editor, Basketball Publicity Manager, and Chancellor of Lambda Tau. John loseph Stanislnuslfy looks the part of an engineer and the A.I.Ch.E. pin on his lapel says so. Stan is an advanced shutter-bug and does quite a bit of color photography. Besides that, he also enjoys music and the theatre. His am- bition is to process machinery design. What- ever he may mean by that Stan can be sure that we are betting on him. Abraham Stern His going places as his friends put it, for he is resourceful, conscientious and a hard worker. Abe is immensely liked by his instructors, fellow students, and fellow mem- bers of the A.S.M.E. and S.A.E. He is an ex- cellent example of the type of Mechanical En- gineer The Cooper Union has always endeavored to turn out. With this build up, Abe cannot fail us. graduates This lad from Brooklyn, John Wesley Stimpson, is a whizz at mechanical engineering. His friends feel certain that his success is assured, for he has shown those qualities so necessary for one to re- alize his ambition. John is a member of both the A.S.M.E. and the S.A.E. A good part of his leisure time is taken up by his hobbies, fishing and woodworking. Most Cooper linion graduates want to be engi- neers, capitalists, managers, etc., but Clif Struyl: wants only to be well thought of. Well, well, well. Cliff works with Wright Aircraft fyes, we said withlg and states that he intends to protect the home folks. He has a natural aptitude for being misunderstood-but good. Arthur Sivenson's hobby is tinkering with auto- mobiles. By automobiles we presume he means his model T Ford which uses up a gallon of oil for every half mile. Swede was the President of the Student A.S.NI.E. and helped to make this year's society one of the most active of recent years. Swede was also Secretary of the Senior Class and a member of the 1l.A.O. Bartholomeu' Tarnnlo is the Chemical Engineering pride of Englewood Cliffs. Bart is one of the best liked fellows in his class. His likeable personality and fine speaking voide are outstanding and will no doubt be of great use in the engineering world. Bart likes all kinds of musicg enjoys tennis, bowl- ing. and loves to read classics and discuss them in the Social Philosophy Class. Murray Thomas can cook up a solution to any problem as he rides home. Last summer he ground a lens for a telescope, looked at the heavens and felt like Galileo. Besides the stars he likes pretty girls fone at a timer and dancing. He received his numerals in softball. Murray has quietly been doing research work in explosives and should soon pop upon an unsuspecting world. Charlie Tucker, member of the A.I.Ch.E., is in the Research Division of the Bell Laboratories, and quite a scholar besides. Charlie can al- ways be depended upon to clear -up a ditlicult problem. We suspect that his high grades in German were due to his Female interest, but high scores in other subjects more than com- pensate for this. He hopes to continue his studies toward a Ph.D. William A. Wallrer, who hails from Astoria, Long lsland, is finally about to realize the fruits of his labor at Cooper lnion. W'ith his per- sonality, perseverance and forthright character he will conquer any and all obstacles that may arise before him in the Mechanical Engineering field. The friendships Bill has made will be lifelong for he is very much liked by fellow students and P.S.O. members. tually to achieve a position in public engineering Simeon Wintonialf is the neatest and most method- ical member of the C.E. class. His reports and notes are so complete and so bulky that his 210 pounds of bone and muscle stand him in good stead when he brings them to class. His favorite recreational activities are swimming and folk dancing. He intends to become either a field su- perintendent or a foundations engineer. Sidney Weniger is the chairman of the Curriculum Committee and Treasurer of the Senior Class. He is also Chairman of the Metropolitan Conference of Student Chapters of the A.S.C.E. In spite of his many activities. he has maintained a high scholastic average. He has had experience in civil engineering during past summers, and hopes even- or city planning. Joseph Irving Yognmn claims that lle has spent entirely too much time with his studies, and that his social education has been sadly neg- lected. This year he has been burning the candle at both ends. He hails from Jersey but insists that New York is the place with the stuff Little man you've had a busy day. -Joe aims to become a great industrialist. Nicholas lurk will make his ambition of becoming a professional Mechanical Engineering come true if he continues to abide by the formula that has always been his guide in Cooper lfnion- Success at Cooper llnion is not due to being a genius, but only to hard work, unsellish sacrihce and ambi- tion. These words are ample enough to indicate the strength of character which is his. Maxwell Awner is the quiet mem-ber of the Ad- vertising Class. Max believes that advertising and the more esthetic art of painting can mix. 150 do other advertising students, but painting students are vociferously against this theory.J We hope Max makes a coming out party for himself. After four years at Cooper Union he deserves it. Don't let Philip Bernowitz's contour deceive you. Beneath that layer of avoirdupois the rippling mus- cles play, probably the Ferryboat Serenade. Phil's versatile, an excellent advertising student, a demon at the printing press, a member of the Cable Staff. and the A.A.I... and a camera fiend to boot. No longer will Cooper Union hear his bounding step and awesome voice. A jolly Rou- manian Rhapsody, lhat's Phil. Always sporting snappy ensembles, Amelia Wanda Blazitwrslry is one of the ten best dressed females around these parts. Although she spends most of her time cutting and draping, Amelia has developed her own technique in beautifully col- ored illustrations. All this isn't surprising since Amelia in her first two years was an excellent student in Design, as well as in every other subject. One perfectly swell girl is Bernadine Blessitt. In addition to being a promising student she has the blessed ino pun intended! faculty of making friends easily. After going through four years at Cooper Union studying Painting, Architecture, Decorative Design, and finally, Advertising, we are still sure that she parts from school with a sub- dued sigh. The least we can say is- Best-of luck, Bernadine. graduates The happy medium in the team of Ptacek, Eller and Bloomfield is Dorothy Vane Bloomfeld. For four years Dorothy's sagacity and good sense have contributed to our. and certain other peo- ple's. welfare. ll'le's a swell looking blond.l Besides being the possessor of an Ex Post Facto 1 Key and Cold C, she's the possessor of that noble ambition to combine a career with-guess what? This is a good one-Helen Larimer Bott, and the only name they can think of is Timmy, Any- way, this gal has been designing and selling all over the lot. Barbara Mettler, Mary Lewis- nothing but the best. We mean clothes, the things she wears so well. This is also Cooper's own sweater girl-but handmade. With the spurt she's made, she should splash far. Julius Bronsteirfs past at Cooper Union reads like the Odyssey, for he has run the gamut of extra- curricular activities. Class President during all four years, Secretary of the Students' Council one year, and Treasurer another, Associate Editor of the 1941 Cableg these are only a few of the posi- tions he has held. Perhaps the key to all this is .lulie's popularity. One of the three mosquitoes tBrown, Simon and Zinnl, Harry C. Brown is the quietest of his con- stituents, even though it be only by comparison. ln between escapades, Harry managed to successfully complete four years of architectural study. He is one of the few lucky individuals who has already started his climb to the top since he is now work- ing as a draftsman. Heart and Soul was written after watching this man at work. Harold Collins does things with a vengeance, whether it be falling down stairs or running the Peace Council. If being an artist means absolute sincerity, then Hal is nominated. He is studying advertising but paint- ing is really his forte. The stage islhis calling but Hal just likes to entertain with those his- trionic abilities. graduates An adept student in the Advertising Design class, Angelo Criscione has won the esteem and admira- tion of many of his classmates. His sincerity and conscientiousness are the qualities that will en- able him to reach the top. Not having time to indulge in many extra-curricular activities, he nevertheless has made more than his quota of friends. lmagine hailing from Brookman Lane, Totowa Boro, N. J., and wearing shoes. Add building chicken coops, tending goats, shooting a Win- chester like all heck afire and designing houses. Lydia Czapelf can call out stacks of anecdotes and personality sketches of interesting people and make you want to hear more. Lydia has a keen tongue, a sharp eye, and a wealth of minor talents. Norman Danlfowilz, who is the dude of the ad- vertising clan. is one of the few Night Art School men who can read in the daytime. As Treasurer of the A.A.L. he has done a good job of controlling their budgetg in fact too good. He was sure to be in class morally on Wednesday, .even if someone did call his name when roll was called. Norm is not much of an aesthetic artist, but he certainly has got printer's ink in his blood. lf you never saw a still life walkin' you failed to see Aaron Picasso Ehrlich. Painting, Harrison, and the modern French artists occupy Ron's mind to the extent where you can't tell him from a work -almost. All this shows you how we have matured. We still have faint memories of the Mad Russians with Aaron holding down the rear. Ah, well, C'est la vie. Eleanor Eller, the English Prestidigitatorn Ibe- cause sl1e's juggled Cable columns since her second year! is one artistic advertising student. As President, Vice-President and Treasurer of the Dance Club, she's left her stamp upon half the engineering school by teaching them to dance. Theyive left their stamps, too-on her talented tootsies. And boys, she can cook, knit, and sew like mama used to do. Quiet, unassuming, Anthony Ferrara is one of best liked buddies in the Night Art Advertising class. A charter member of the A.A.L. and a versatile student of graphic arts, Tony is con- sidered a safe bet to succeed in the field. His social life is almost entirely devoted to his charm- ing girl friend. Occasionally he does manage to spare some time,for photography, his favorite hobby. Extremely well'liked and popular, Hllh0UE1l1 WW quiet and unobtrusive, is cheerful Wilbur GaA'un. Willy has successfully completed four years in the Night Art School. During these years he has established for himself the reputation of ,being an artist of high merit. Will's sincerity and high quality of work will assure him a successful career in his chosen field of endeavor. Kenneth Greenfield is one of those diamonds in the rough that one always hears about. An ardent advertising student, you'll usually find him helping someone with lettering. He had the nightmare which organized the A.A.L., but he passed up all glory to become just a member. Kenny hopes to become a production manager. All power to him. A determined girl is Helen C. Grot, who's hound to get what she ain't got. Helen wants to par- take of life. love, and art to the full. She fills that hig order in part hy reading, dancing, tak- ing long walks, doing beautifully colored needle- work, and hunting tguess what?P. As far as art goes, she's paving the way with her own Decoratively Designed clothing. He's definitely the strong silent type-and too, too conscientious. Philip Crushkin believes tal- ent is power and tact is skill, without a Jiminy Cricket. He wouldn't know what is meant by extra-curricular activity-unless you mean art exhibits. He's very magnanimous about sharing his wealth of knowledgeg is polite to females. And what more can you say about a guy that gets five A's? Can George Hill help it if he has devastating charm and Tyrone Power looks like him? Our cynical hero goes in for stage designing-did the Mad Genius Party decorations for practice. Name the latest show tune and Ty can give it out on the piano. This waltz-wolf of the roller skating rinks thinks the modern girl is here lo stay, but he prefers the old fashioned. When bigger and better artists are made, Dave Horn will make themg he was married this year. Whenever a group has to approach one of the directors, Dave is sure to be elected as stooge, but he really enjoys it. To see Dave describe the curves of an angular Picasso is something no sight- seer of Cooper Union should miss. Good luck to one swell guy. Just call him Ed and leave him to his wishful thinking. Claims that's what he prefers. As Edward Stanley lanczuk, he spends his spare time with the scenic committee and is President of the Lone Wolf Club. He's one of the few who appreciate Gil l.evy's jokes, which shows that he's a nice guy anyway. Oh well, a happy life consists of tranquillity of mind. Four years ago, an influx of Kanters struck The Cooper bnion with the force of twin tornadoes. Leo Kanter is an architectural minded young man, being one of the most able and adept students in the class. He has had his work shown in several of the Cooper llnion exhibitions. He has also been of great help in putting over the Night Art Senior affairs. Seymour Kanter, the other half of the Kanter and Kanter combination, is a particularly adept student of painting. His confidence and quietness is amaz- ingg perhaps that's the reason he wears such in- teresting as well as colorful ties. When asked about his hobbies he said, 'LAccording to the last analysis my hobbies are numerous. My favorite, however, is love-. Shame on you, Seymour,-Oh, He, fre. raduates Sweet and sober Curley-face Myra Kempson, an all-around lovable gal, and a sorely needed stabilizer in Painting, room 611. Behind that cute figger and those bouncing baby curls lies a serious nature, and an expression seeking soul. As a starter, she had acquired some material evidence of her talent in canvas form. Wfe hope she finds all the answers she's searching for. These words come from class kibitzer Gilbert Levy. For four long years Cil has handed out handy advice from nine to four-thirty. He really knows his stuff, though, and as a Donald Duck imitator, he has no equal. Cil is famous for hav- ing harassed Mrs. Harrison into admitting he was her best student. Nowadays he goes in for ping-pong and advertising on the side. When he's not yearning for another can of beer at lunch time, Anthony Loscalzo bravely listens to the witticisms of cronies George and Mac-but occasionally rebels and does a wicked imitation of Carmen Miranda or Dorothy Lamour sans sarong. His heart is in acting, nevertheless the theater must wait, so Tony packs away his first love to knock out a design or two during office hours. He's President of the Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Lubells, namely Paul Lubell. Nicknamed 'LChubby, he is alert to concentric circles and dimples, having an ample dose of same as personal property, as the greater half of Ross and Lubell. He goes in for dancing, waterpolo, and dancing. Plans to outdo Lester Beall in advertising by giving the arrow a new twist. If you pass him, he's blond, handsome, and a little quiet, too,-look again and you'll see Ken- neth Lubben. Ken is that fine young man who certainly did wonders with the pallette and brush under the expert guidance of the well-known Mr. Kantor. We're sure that he will not be one of those proverbial starving in the garret artists. graduates Senior President, Clinton Macaulay, and leader of the lighter side of C.U., Mac has tucked somewhere along his great length a Cold C for baseball, Dance Club, waterpolo, Pioneer, fenc- ing. Class Night entertainment, and dramatics, with a big D. Between plays, he dabbled in ad- vertising and sparkling repartee with George and Tony. We suspect his greatest ambition is to be in the entertainment world. i The man who impresses us as really going to the top as an Industrial Designer is Edward Mc- Cuiness. His practical solutions of the many prob- lems assigned him during these past years will bear us out on that. Ed is a hard working fellow and, as chairman of the Scenic Committee, has been in- valuable to the Dramatic Club. Good luck, Ed. Nonchalance personified is Leon Mesnilf. You can't rutile him leven after four years at Cooperl. He is a painting student, and a good one, too. Leon, by the way. is a firm believer that adver- tising is not an art, hence frowns upon the unes- thetic ad-man. llowf-ver, beneath that frozen front beats a heart of gold. Xlay be ne-ver have to pawn ll. He's a little man with a big name. She calls him Robbie, but it's really Robert Pershing Metz. His one and only hobby, interest, and pre- ferred entertainment is Zana and more Zana. He walks around in overalls-looks like a mechanic, but is really an architect. He makes the trip from St. Albans to Woodbridge in Hfteen min- utes with both eyes shut. She lives there. This is Suzanna Everett Mott of Metz and Mott, better known as Zana. lHe calls her Suzy.l She's at the other end of that beaten path to Wood- bridge. Her hobby is Bob and lapel gadgets, al- though the Dramatic Club did interest her for awhile. She is majoring in textile design in which she is especially noted for her excellent color work and aesthetically designed fabrics. The architecture classes without the presence of attractive Eleanore Petterson would be unthink- able. Eleanore has become so well liked by her fellow students that it will be with sorrow in their hearts that they bid her adieu on graduation day. We are all certain that she will have as much suc- cess in the business world as she has had with us. lf you doubt that an advertising student can be quiet and unobstrusive, just look up Fred Philip- son. He does his work proficiently and with a modicum of verbocity, but he gets there just the same. And girls, he's handsome. Fred is also an active member of the A.A,L. Cooper L'nion will be sorry to lose him and we are sure that he is sorry to leave. Dorothy Place is a student of Painting and Decora- tive Design. She has had several of her paintings in exhibitions, both at Cooper and elsewhere. Dorothy was a Day Art student, but after obtain- ing employment as a Greenberg Card designer she changed to Night. She enjoys woodcarving and bicycling, taking her paints along when she goes awandering and sketching that which catches her fancy. Quite a painter, this Beatrice Potrop, as many persons will testify. Bea has had quite a number of her creations exhibited on the walls of Cooper llnion during four years here, one of them earn- ing her the twenty-five dollar prize that is an- nually given. Bea has also a most charming per- sonality and it has won for her many true and last- ing friendships. Westchester outdid itself in producing our own June Ptacek. Besides stopping the presses by being first woman Cable Editor, and startling all by managing in her sweet, quiet way, she featured during her busy career, as Associate Editor in 1940, Vice-President of the Dance Club, Annual Dance and Ring Committee. Result- Ex Post Facto, Cold and Silver C, and in spite of it all, she's still a swell kid. Although one would never suspect it. for he hasn't that beaten look in his eye as yet, Adolph Robin- son is one of the few married men in the Night Art School. Adolph finds the means of self-ex- pression by studying painting and can often be seen inhabiting the sixth fioor library, poring over the many books. A dapper fellow, he is well-liked by his classmates. Corirlo Rosa has established a reputation of being one of the best architectural draftsmen of the class. His designing is also on the up and up. Last year Corido had his small house design repro- duced in the school's catalogue, which is quite some honor. His designs are not always purely architectural and good lines never escape this budding architect's criticalglance. Sl One of our more popular young men in the Ad- vertising Design class is suave Herbert Rosen- baum. He and Bernie Weinberg fthe teaml were almost invariably late for class, yet, in spite of this they have turned in some of the best work we have seen. With the quality of his creations, he will indeed make a name for himself in the commercial held. Step up, gals, here's the land sailor! IA femme in every year.l Although he poked into water- polo, baseball and dramatics, Andy really out- does himself as President of the Dance Club. lleis the Best Klan of the dance. ln the Held he expects to be the first Arulreu' Ross, and not the second anyone. As proof, Andy is one of those prizewinning students now. Henry Rothschild is one of these self-effacing young men who make extremely efficient and ex- cellent students. He is one of our best Industrial Designers and likes to work out his concoctions in a practical way. Henry's willingness to listen and his intelligent discussions have made his friendship valued lay all those who know him. rauluutos Doris Ruberzfeld is the female Yehudi of CU., nevertheless, Doris always manages to turn up with the goods, properly typed at the crucial moment. One of the most friendly gals in these parts, she has gotten in on all the big doings. Her talents are responsible for her being Presi- dent of the Dramatic Club and a member of both the Cable and the Pioneer Staffs. John Ruddley is one of very serious mien. That, by the way, is only a protective covering, for he is one of the class' most likeable fellows. Proof? John has twice been elected Vice-President and has also had an active part in planning our class affairs. Architecture is his future and we hope he has as much success as he has had with us. An active participant in many school and class affairs, Edwin Schaffer has given much time and effort into making them successful. As chairman of the Annual Dance Committee, he gave Cooper Union one of the biggest and best affairs it has had in many a moon. We feel sure that Ed's ability of leadership will carry him far in the architectural career. lf you really want to enjoy an intelligent conver- sation join Dorothy Sheraga at one of her nightly forums. Without a doubt one of the most charm- ing and witty students in the Night Art School, Dotty has endeared herself to many of her class' mates, and to top it off, she is really an excellent painter. No, fellows, we won't give her phone number-she's married. As efficient chairman of our Senior Night Art Affair Committee. Harold Siegel was in a large part responsible for its great success. Harold's efforts in extra-curricular afliairs have been of great value to those who have worked with him. He is a charter member and also Secretary of the Advertising Arts League, and is also a member of the Art Staff of the Cable. graduates Another quiet fellow who managed to get through is Louis Siegel. Louis passed his time here heck- ling the instructors. He is the kind of chap who keeps teachers awake nights trying to think of a low enough mark to give him. But all kidding aside, he's really a swell guy and will go places in the advertising field if he can only get his mind off women. Louis is also a member of the A.A.L. This New Jersey gal was known for swinging a mean brush until she had a change of heart. She's addressed as Ann Sirotenlro, architect. She claims no nickname, no middle name, no ambition, and no preferred entertainment. The gal just ain't perticular, she says, but we know better. She's known to putter around stage productions al- though painting really consumes most of her spare time. With wine, women, song, architecture and his jaloPY. Herman Simon would call his life complete. Simon's jokes could make anyone seek refuge in the cool night air. But we who have been aged in the wood together with him these past four years have become immune to them, and see through to the finer side of him. Best of luck, pal. What dark haired enginee-r's orbs opened wider on beholding the charms of our Barbara Joan Snyder? No doubt there's plenty of choice, but we'll put our money on-guess? Barbara's greatest talent, next to writing snappy advertis- ing copy, is fooling the public. She looks like a butterfly but don't let those blue eyes fool you. There's a substantial frame under that decorative facade. Architect a la Wright, lover a la Casanova, and comedian a la .lerry Culonna. That is the best way we can described Emanuel Turano. In spite of for perhaps we should say because of! tltose an- nual trips to Florida, Manny has been able to keep up with, and in some cases, set the pace of the rest of the class. Manny'll be missed by many. Do you see that slim chap carrying a brief case coming toward us? Well, he isn't an engineer, he's Robert Ullrich, the Secretary-Treasurer of the Night Senior Art Class. An ardent advertising student and a swell illustrator, he's liked by every- one. Bob is a flying enthusiast-we're all sure he'll Hy high in any career he may choose. As far as she's concerned, art' might very well be the power to express one's joys. Gertrude von Kampen is very happy and she does produce the goods. She doesn't stop at darn good dress de- signing-children's sketches and charming greet- ing cards are her meat, she's got talent, a hus- band, and a wardrobe fit for a queen. What more could she desire, but a job? It used to drive us batty watching Bernard Wein- berg dash out those snappy illustrations in the Ad- vertising Design class. We would sit amazed at his left-handed technique, yet results proved that he possessed more than the average talent. One of the things we'll remember most about Bernie is the sight of him and Herbert Rosenbaum puffing into class late,-as usual. After finding his way out of one of his maze- like designs, Sidney Weiner staggers into a shag on Thursday nights. What energy is left he blows into his trumpet, to the bench! of the band. Sid is eagerly looking forward to graduation and ad- vertising layout work. By the way fsome call it waysidel he is also an active member of the scenic society. If you're looking for a guy with a heart that throbs like a printing press, it's Nicholas Woronisoj. The only reason he came to Cooper was to print some personal cards. He's really a conscientious fellow with a heart of lead who's struggling to become an advertising artist, and he has a good chance to succeed i.f he can get his mind out of the galley. She's a peaches and cream blonde with a snatch of grace beyond the reach of art and a biting wit beyond the reach of her classmates. Natalie Little Nell Zimmer is the name, and archi- tecture the profession. She prefers foreign films and Louis Jouvet. She heads the Cold C Com- mittee, but is not open to bribes, which should show you that all blondes aren't dumb. Philip Zinn, aside from living in Brooklyn, is a regular fellow. For that, we'll cease ottr long standing Bronx-Brooklyn feud to tell of his good points. Phil has made a great number of friends in his architectural class by his willing cooperation to make any undertaking, in and out of school, a success. We all look forward to meeting up with you again, Phil. Imagine a girl who's proud of having successfully avoided every meeting of the Dance Club since the middle of her Hrst year. She's not anti-social, but to Shirley Sonya Zweifach, life holds greater interests. Take painting now-Shirley works like an embryo Picasso on the canvas daubing- not had either. She's aiming toward an ivory tower where she can paint to her heart's con- tent. classes classes classes classes classes 1941194119411941 classes classes vlasses class 194119411941194 Y ,,,.:.:Ljg,.: -,9,...A1 ,'-rg.-.-Q' --'W Lg,-Q -1 'J-.15 fir.- -e - Fr '- 4- 1- .EIR - -- 1-4 .- . . . ,L+-Kg. :Ci f -h - .1 .5534 jars., -. - Vg. 4.-, ,- '- '.'ff:'i ivz.

No sooner had we recuperated from the effects bf the entrance exams than we were subjected to the gruelling routine of assimilating an engineering education. But this was not to start before we had taken stock of what were to be our surroundings for four years to come: venerable Peter Cooper standing sentinel over the square, seemingly to keep a watch- ful eye over us freshmen who were about to partake of his benehcent offerings, the classrooms with their paint encrusted ceilings and their air of secret knowledge-in short the entire school seemed to possess a per- sonality all its own which only strengthened our vows to prove ourselves worthy of the trust placed in our hands. Of course we received many impressions of a lighter nature too. The girls of the Art School were subjected to the discriminating gaze of our speculative eyesg the faculty, and incidently the secretaries, received their share of our observation, and much delight did we gain from their many idiosyncrasies. Then we took stock of ourselves. As a group, we freshmen might be termed a motley crew. In size we ranged all the way from Sapling,, Alverson to the character who cast a large shadow-vClianley. The incon- sequent loquacity of Cook more than made up for the usual silence of taciturn Brown. We ofttimes wished that Cook would cede his position . 3 0 ' x Pruf.C. lligbie Young Prof. H. W.

The best known of the notorious characters of Section Four was Leonard Schapiro of the Bronx. His original poetry and so original stories have reached as far as the remote precincts of Section One. His Christmas Carol was probably the most popular. But the intricacies of the English language were not so well known to Gerald Vileisse from Germany, and Michael Yanowitch from northern China, although their grammar was better than that of most of those who have spoken English all their lives. The school orchestra received a big support from Russ Sweet and Martini Skaar, trumpets, Wlalt Sonderman, clarinet, and the great pianist, Herman fPaderewskij Soifer. Mr. Dzeciol would testify that others were also musically minded, for it was in the Engineering: Drawing class that the 'gCooper Croonersf' consisting of Block. Brenner, Alverson, and Berner did most of their prac- ticing-their plates showed it tool Art was practiced freely. Bracca, for example, would embellish his math problems with the most beautiful old English lettering ever seen, while Alverson was wont to decorate the blaekboards with masterful depictions of toy loco- pr ngineering lst Year Day Tech.

Since no serious complaints have as yet been made. can it be that the Class of 'ell is satisfied with its home for the three years to come? It was with great exuberance that five hundred happy, albeit amazed students were enrolled here as freshmen. They presented a more motley and assorted group of men than was ever assembled in an institution for higher learning. The class was a melting pot of occupations, nations. and personalities. Of the different occupa- tions, and nationalities little need be said as the same holds true for most of the other classes at The Cooper Union. But in the matter of personalities, they were unique and unequalled. In support of this we offer for your inspection . . .

There was also John Churko, arbitrator of many class disputes. Also John Anderson, who planned to initiate a movement to have an airfield built atop the Hewitt Building. It would have facilitated his travel from Brooklyn. We must also mention the names of L. Caputo, Edwin Birger, George Harvey and Bayard Davis: but to tell of the idiosyncrasies of each is impossible.

This heading on a quiz sheet epitomises a substantial portion of the sectiorfs scholastic experience for the year, for vectors pointed the way to the attack, and provided the tools for de- fense, against the two-faced god, Alternating Circuits. The fifth year E.E.'s could write a book --and did. Three solid hours of problem work in class, each week with rare exception, plus healthy home assignments, caused the undernourished problem book of September to fill out rap- idly by January, the portly folders labeled AC Circuits tended to choke brief cases. When the work in Heat Power, Machine Design, and DC Machines was added to the volume, the product could be a big brother to any encyclopedia. One of the brightest spots of the year was the weekly session in the Machines Lab. Growing knowledge of the theory, and increased familiarity with the machines themselves, made the investigations a source of pleasure and interest. This had to be paid for by stern work in meeting the exacting requirements of reports on each experiment. The ll. ll. Q. 0. 0. 0. ll. Q. 'in Year Night HE. Top---L. Kilian, 1. Anderson, J. lfrlrich.

Watching the half-sized squad of Ed Owen and James Nestor running a four-man experiment was a treat. Their data sheets showed that they were running two machines, setting switches, breakers, and rheostats, controlling power, speed and fre- quency, and managing to read some four or five meters and record the data. No one has yet ac- counted for this incredible feat. Again, one evening the first floor of the Foundation Building was suddenly in darkness. Undaunted, the class in Machine Design continued, the instructor real- izing, presumably, that the class had been somewhat in the dark anyway. The end oi the long trail is in sight. Those sleepless nights, falling hairs, and the hermit-like existence now seem trivial in comparison to the well deserved award now awaiting us.

Al Kwasiborski and Ed Frost always have something to worry them -either the next report. or that good-looking girl! Ted Cold sat facing the entire faculty at the A.S.Nl.E. dinner. and strangely enough he man- aged to 'digest it! By the way. you might ask him to tell you about the loss of his pants in the Hy- draulics lab.

Benny Lax. the frustrated singer. will tell anyone about the good time that he had the pre- yious Saturday. He takes an Honors Course. and has the pleasure of answering the questions of the whole Math Department. Joe Heimann is the coneiliator who settles arguments between Lax. Cold. and Manson. His own contribution to posterity was to run out of money and gas on the Oakland Bridge. It is with sadness that we prepare to depart from Cooper Union, but this sadness is partially oitset by newer and better things to come. -25 3rd Year Night NLE. Trip--R. Levy, Nl. Shane, W. Barron P.

Morris Shane had acquired the status of partition engineer the claims to have detailed more restroom steel parti- tions than any other one human on this earthj and in direct opposition to the partitioning ofthe old world by a certain unnamed individual. Tony O'Lenick was traveling seventy miles every day while working for Lincle Sam at Metuchen. N. J. Last year several of our men made the fatal few minutes stop at the altar. one of them being Class President Reno King. Jim Trier had been classified in group one. subject to immediate call-good luck, Jim. Fred Krukiel was still the best informed NLE. in the third year. He seemed to have made a pattern of his school and study life. Len Probitsky got a new job with a one-hundred percent increase in salary. The fourth year Mechanical Engineers got well under way. having started out with all that vitality, vigor and sincerity which ordinarily every student feels he has at the beginning of Sep- tember.

It did not take the majority of the class long to decide that the fourth year was the toughest-although they say that every year. Vvhen asked as to whether the subjects were hard or easy. the fourth year Mechanical will reply. l didnit have trouble with any except Thermo, Hydraulics. Mech. of Mat. and Machine Design. Of course those who sleep in the Government and l.iterature classes will agree they are tough. too. Une of the activities of the year was the Fourth Annual Engineers' Dance, which was attended by everyone but those who did not have their Thermo finished. Then there was the A.S.lNl.f'i. dinner and it topped those of all previous years tit may be attributed to the entertainment supplied hy the faculty, even though they did exaggerate somewhat in demonstrating what every student should not doj. After much observa- tion, the engineers have agreed that Mr. R. B. must he wound up with the clock every morning and which Illtlsl be the reason for his continually witty remarks in class. Vlfasrft everyone sur- prised when they found out that Hydraulics and Thermo weren't open book? Wvhy it's almost im- possible to remember the stuff . . . even Mr. Tuttill will admit that.

There is hardly a person who will admit that their only reward was in what they learned.

Many sill- dents were forced to discontinue their studies lwllillsf' of the increased demands made upon their time and efforts hy their johs. Every individual faced the prospect of the disruption. and perhaps complete termination. of ltis studies to serve time in the armed forces of this country. ln reference to this, and as voiced hy their Class President Anthony Agapitos. the class was unanimous in their sentiment for student deferment from the draft.

Crossman, J. Coppulino. Q Q Q Q Q Q divided into two sections, much the same as the previous year. While many of the familiar faces were gone, new ones came from the class of '41, those who could not make the grade in their sixth year. The studies in the fifth year were the hardest yet, many of the subjects demanding more time than it was possible for us to spend. On the whole, it was an interesting and well spent year since we received a well rounded and thorough training in a number of subjects. Witness, Prof. Young's class in Engg. Economics and Mr. Churchill's class in Economics. Prof. Young would tell of the exorbitant real estate taxes, the unfairness of unions and the uwastei' of the New Deal. For the next hour Mr. Churchill would tell of the need for the real estate taxes 'fbecause of its unearned profit t. the blessings of unionism and that the New Deal did not spend enough. There we had two sides of several questions by two able exponents. For most of the class, it was a jubilant feeling to survive the fifth year and we look forward to our sixth and final one in this really swell school-The Cooper Union. ln spite of Prof. Young's oft-quoted You're a helluva bunch of engineers. we aim to prove that our time shall not have been spent in vain. During our entire sojourn at The Cooper Union, our class has been the same as many others, but now at graduation we shall be different. All too often have the closing statements of the Seniors dealt with a review of the subjects encountered in their stay here. W'e shall not do so, for we believe that the last pages of record shall he devoted to the men who have made up our class. You will meet them as you thumb the pages to follow. 'LVale amici, nos decessuri te salutamusf' What is it that makes the Ch. E. Sophomore a creature set apart from his fellow engineering students? The Quant. Lab. - in more ways than one. This year's Sophomore class found the Quant. Lah. the most interesting and also the most trying course. Abe Selman, our contribution to the Pioneer Staff, holds that there are over a thousand ways to make a mistake in the analyses, and unfortunately we are familiar with most of them. This opinion is shared by Professor Hope and Mr. Cunningham, who painstakingly coached us all year in laboratory technique and chemical lore. and who cheerfully answered our many questions such as, How many cc's ago did I pass my endpoint? or hls the percentage in this report too high or two low? The German Class on reading day, much to our surprise, became an eagerly anticipated per- iod because of Mr. Bowman's amusing anecdotes of his life as a student in Germany. But we have a few anecdotes of our own to match Mr. Bowman's, such as Zimmerman irking his partners in the Technical Analysis Lab. because he used up five pounds of salt and a whole cake of ice in three weeks while trying to produce a freezing mixture. And maybe Smith will someday find out what that vegetable oil is that was wished on him in Technical Analysis. He had everyone in the section smell it, and everyone called it something different. The Sophomores may have the Quantitative Lah.. but the Juniors have the Organic Lab. For most of us organic chemistry was a novel experience which we had been eagerly anticipating in previous years. Vlfhat we did not anticipate were the noxious emanations associated with certain ex- Prof Raymond J. F. Kunz Prof. Henry B. llope Prof. Clarence Sherman Prof. Arthur ll. Rarlasch l'rof.J. Merriam Peter fu l Everett Birmingham, who usually manages to get lost in Flushing during week ends, is one of the outstanding athletes of our class. His good pitching was one of the main reasons for our winning the softball tournament last season. From New Jersey comes Dan Borsiczky, Plain- fieldis pride and joy, who is usually worrying about train schedules. The outstanding propon- ents of the old adage 'Lbetter late than earlyv are Bill Keary and Seymour Adler. Tuckahoe,s con- tribution to Cooper Union is George Everson and his Benzine Burning Bilious Bessiev' fhe calls it a carj. Bessie will move under any power but her own. Where you find Everson you will also find Auggie Dege and Jack Meng, the other two members of the inseparable trio. Auggie hails from the land of Hague, while Meng comes from Queens. The only point on which this triumvir- ate cannot agree is the acceptable method of buying something. Give George enough time and he will convince anyone but the other two, that the best method of purchasing is at auctions. Be it books, Bunsen burners, or beakers, he will buy them at auctions. Auggie, now, maintains that he has a better plan. He invariably knows of a wholesale house-l While Auggie and George are attempting to convince themselves and the class in general, ,lack would rather save time, trouble, and worry by buying retail. Buck Fields is one of our star athletes playing both intramural basketball and softball. George Ferrigni is the president of the A.I.Ch.E. student chapter. In spite of the grind, we recall how the group always found time for bowling at the neighboring alleys and how Bill Keary, financially depressed, took up the chores of a pinboy. And that day Birmingham, strong and healthy after his retreat from Flushing, bragged of hitting 186 fthanks to Bill's stackingi .

Among the high spots during the year were the suspicious appearance of tear gas, in the Economics class, a very sad occasion, which caused the whole class to cry, and the broad streaks of humor which appeared in the persons of several members of our class, notably Fitzgerald, who claims he received the following communication from Hedy La- marr, Dear Bob, If you don't stop writing me they'll throw me in jail. He asks if we think it's a sign of affection! Pickett turned politician this year and walked around with huge campaign buttons on his lapel. Cohen, the class genius, kept us in perpetual amusement by his witty come- backs to the instructors, and by his hilarious demonstration of the Cohen-Einstein law. Most of us are well started on our thesis topics and hope to make a real good job of it next year when the experimental work begins. W'ho knows, there might even be some new discoveries made to perpetuate our fame. This year's senior class of chemical engineers, not to be confused with comical en- gineers, contains many outstanding students. Among these brilliant scientists f??l is the remarkable genius Professor Meyer Maron. His simple explanations by means of dif- ferentials make our easiest problems most confusing. 2nd Year Day Ch F Top Z Paclew lu W Lapple, I. Lefkowitz, lf. Russbach, R. Markson, E. Plassman, P.

Hair disheveled and bleary eyed, Hoimie lunged down the aisle swinging his hook bag to clear all ohstacles so that he could reach his seat and relax. Well, he didn't want an 'aA', in that course anyway. Of course, Dan Borsiczkyis unsuccessful attempt to retain two beers at the plant inspection of Ruppert! obviates all possibilities of his becoming a C. U. faculty member. Yes, we all amused each other no end. And then we had an amusing time amusing the student body at the Freshman Reception and we probably had more fun than you. But as we look back over the past, we deeply regret that them days are gone forever! When anyone dropped around to the organic laboratory on a Friday evening, they were sure to meet the most serious-minded and astute students, the third year night Chemical Engineers. Perhaps their industriousness was due to the fact that there was a female inspiration in the person of Coldye Cohen, the buxom lassie from Bayonne. The little lady wielded her test tubes and slide rule along with the best of them and she quite obviously proved the right of a woman to occupy a place in the engineering world on an equal footing ,t ,su X- m5 3rd Year Ch.lf.

Bill Zmaehinsky. who, during the day, worked in the chemistry laboratory' at Columbia, was very much at ease in the Cooper labs. Harold Alter. who traveled to and from Brook- lyn. strenuously demanded that only the exalted Chemieal Engineers be permitted to ride the elevator. Frank Hauek made an enviable rec-ord for himself in the Night Tech School.

The fourth year Chemical Engineering class was composed of some of the most ambitious and versatile men of our year. It was the leader in our social and political life at The Cooper Union, having such' members as Paul Scherbner, Harry Kleindienst and Victor Antaki, respectively, President, Treasurer and Secretary of this year. Vic was also chairman of the Class Night and the Basket- ball Dance Committees. We think it fitting that we mention the names of as many of the other components of our section as space will permit. since it is they who make the class. Joseph Serenack. the math wiz, set the rapid pace for us to follow. Then there were Vernon Torch, the baseball prodigy, George Zaharakis, the ambitions Creek, John Deliiec. the Scandinavian analyst and Robert Chameides, the class wit. All of these last named individuals. including Paul Scherhner. were in large part responsible for those-odors that emanated from the chemistry labs during last year. For the sake of the rest of the institution, we hope that these individuals will have a change of heart next semester and will then produce concoctions Th W-'W'-J' 1 1' I 1 . - 5 7 if. 5- Q 3 . . 5 1 ' 4 7- ,. 1 ' S 9 I ,U t G km-liler, W.

How- ever. the studious side of our life will not be the only remembrance of Cooper that we shall keep. We shall remember . . . Al Koehlefs frequent sessions at the Sagamore, dunking doughnuts . . . The Brain Trustw of Cole, Schmitz, Koehler and O'Keefe, whose team- work enabled them to gain top rating in class . . . The puzzled frown of the instructors when stumped by a query from that mental giant. Charlie Foust . . . That soulful expression on the face of Jerry Swisher as he yearned for the finer things in life . . . The day tlhat Henry Peters broke the news to his fellow classmates that he had become a proud daddy . . . The impish gleam that would come into the eyes of Albert Roistacher, as he suddenly would think of some practical joke to pull on one of his unhappy cohorts .... A nd those many times when the Art School would almost be gassed out of ex- istence by the unforeseen results of our experiments in the labs. These and many more will crowd through our minds as we reminisce in later years. Having taken of Cooper lfnion all that she could give. we take our leave to begin that titanic struggle to reach the top.

' il ivil In view of the existing world conditions, the third year Civil Engineering class realized, more than ever before, the importance of a thorough background and the breadth of vision necessary to an en- gineering training. The civil engineer is becoming increasingly more important in the National Defense Program, and in all likelihood will continue to do so. It was with this in mind that the entire class dug in in dead earliest to better prepare themselves for the future, a future in which they will play an important part. New courses which have been instituted broaden the scope of training and provide a more adequate background. Now as to our personalities: Walter Garrison has proven himself capable as a civil engineer, by working as a surveyor. There were other members of the class who have proven their worth as engineers by doing work in the field. John Broker is looking forward to the day when he will hold a responsible position and use his knowledge and past experience to the best ad- vantage.

As a matter of fact, their chief inter- est seemed to be. that universal one. the fair sex-enough of that now. In the few years left until they graduate. these fellows will undoubt- edly meet with situations and conditions similar to those encountered in these past few years, but we feel conhdent that they will best them as they have until now. At the completion of our fourth year we realized more than ever that we were now definitely on the home stretch, and that the time was rapidly approaching when we will go out to do or die. The ever multiplying number of subjects offered to us tend to greatly increase our qualifications, and the likelihood of taking our places in the engineering field. As a class, we cannot boast of having been exceptional. We were, in fact, very much like many another night class found in the Tech school. Our time was pretty much occupied by the many school subjects, each requiring long hours of individ- 6th Year Night NLE. Top-l.. Kryger, L. Siegel, N. Zuck, I., Lindquirt. HollomfL. Brooks, j.

Incidentally, we can list a goodly portion of the members of our class who even now have started to travel the road of professional was not entirely neglected, however, engineering. Our social life because of the demands made upon us hy study and work. Charles E. Olson, of our section, was the class' secretary and proved to be of invaluable aid in running our extra-mural affairs. Then there have been those innumerable gab-fests at the Sagamore, when a few of us would get together to swap yarns over doughnuts and coffee, and the countless times when some of the boys would com- pete with one another at bowling, the chief pastime of many Cooper- ites. One can readily see why it is with great anticipation that we await our final year. The Night Civil Engineering class of 1941-a large name for a class of seven members-holds the honorable distinction of having been, for the past three years, a small select group.

Amidst the twittering herald of birds' voices, summer sprang upon us, and whaml-we were sud- denly sophomores. No longer did we have to bend to the will of the upperclassmen or kow-tow to their whims and fancies. Besides, we had tasted of the plebeian fountain and were full fledged embryo artists as well as first rate Bohemians. ive were really installed as an integral part of the institution. But somehow or other, while endeavoring for better things, we still managed to enjoy ourselves. Remember when the Industrial Designers ran through the streets frantically looking for a local vegetable store in which to purchase organic formu? or when we went up to the Modern Museum with Mr. Thomas, or when we set up that thin, emaciated. skeleton Santa Claus on the sixth floor, or when we expectantly waited under the mistletoe for kisses fand it workeilj, or when we rented our tux' and burrowed our evening gowns and went to the Annual, the long awaited annual. or when we proudly viewed our work in the exhibition? Ah, yes, all of those we did. Still. we all worked and matured, although along diverse lines. The architects measured walls and calculated square feet, the painters stretched canvases and their budgets, and sculptors chiseled each other, and the fashion designers came to school like tramps. Yes, we worked and enjoyed every minute of it. But now, we look forward to our junior year with bigger and better domination of the freshies. junior 3rd Year Day Art: N. llarris, Pre J.

Talking about classes always makes me think of the class of '42. A quieter bunch of freshmen you've never seen. Theyid plug away all day and at the dot of 4:30 they'd go home to their suppers of oatmeal gruel. This went on until late in their sophomore year when they threw the biggest party in the history of C. U. So big, in fact. that it was the cause of the administration's outlawing of the famous art school parties. After achieving this, the class returned to its former mousy state, continuing its practice of never committing a vice worse than doing a little research at the Paramount now and then. No, as far as l know, the class never came out of its coma. Every remedy was tried except a mass hot foot, and that wasn't attempted because of Mr. McElligot's stooge, Mr. Shaw. The class officers made a sad picture whenever they talked the situation over. They'd cry on each other's shoulders-President Norman Harris got pretty tired of it after three years of it. Yep, three years. Harris gave Roosevelt courage to carry on. The unhappy president was flanked by Vice-President Betty Alden. Secretary Jeanne Dagit, and Treasurer Harry Oliver. The class did have its happier side. They had sprightly Ed Casarella, Cable Art Editor. and Ed Jastram, Cooper! cheerful cherub. This is a good place to stop, we'll leave the folks cheerful and all that, besides, sad stories make me cry. senior 4tli Year Day Art.: C. Macaulay, Pres.: A Kellman, Y.-Pres.: J.

This is coming to you from the Senior class, which has one foot on the threshold of life and the other on a pogo-stick. Most of the class activities, due to the early Cable deadlines, are in the nature of things to come. Early in the year the class, which was famous for its Mad Genius Party, was star- tled, nay-petrified, bythe ofhcial no-more-Art-School-parties edict. But, after copious weeping, and a few glasses of fruit juice at McSorley's. the officers alternately pushed and pulled by vice-president Maisie Kellman, found a nearby hall. and announced that the biggest party yet was to come off there. Time and the gate receipts will tell. As for the seniors themselves, four years' strain are beginning to tell. Dan Shapiro takes stage falls more rarely nowg Andy Ross hands out fatherly kisses: ex-class officers bask in fading splendor: Myra Kempson is thinking of putting up her hair. Some of the members are married f butched for life, as the Pioneer sayslg Susan Mott and Hob Metz are tottering on the brink. Hal Collins wears a regular shirt every day nowg June Ptacek and Eleanor lfller are wearing anklets and gumsoles in an attempt to prolong youth. As for the others, they are a wiser and, perhaps, sadder lot. Four years have gone rapidly. because each of them was chock-full of all the things we came to Cooper for. It was swell while it lasted, and it didn't last long enough. freshman lst Year Night Art: F. Die-terle, Y.- Pres.g T. Wadlington, l'res.g E.

Though there were several hundred applying for admission, the few who were admitted won out on the basis of merit. Wie were now full-fledged Cooperites. Our first few weeks in Cooper were spent in the orientation proc- ess. We made friendships that will endure through the coming years. We learned of the activities outside the curriculum and some of us began to partake in them. Class spirit was born during our fourth week with the election of class oflicers. Those elected were: Tom Wadliiigtoti, Presidentg Florence Dieterle, Vice-Presidentg Eleanor Shick, Secretary, and Richard Kalkman, Treasurer. Immediately after the election, plans for a dance started. Our class was the first to be affected by the ruling passed by the school the year before. The dance was held outside of Cooper lfnion. and after considerable negotiations. Webster Hall and Frank Niarrow's orchestra were obtained. With plans completed, the dance was held January 31 in cooperation with the Sophomore class. and although it lacked the inforniality of previous parties, 'ia good time was had by allf' After our one supreme effort in an extra-curricular class affair, we again settled down to our own duties. At the close of the year we find that we have not only progressed academically, but socially and spiritually as well. We are now more determined than ever that nothing shall impede our course to success. ophomor Sec.: lf. Kline. Treats. ff. s U. 2nd Year Night Mt. Toffee-F. Knoedler. J. ,larvie-. R. Long. E.

The time when flighty decisions are being discarded and we see blurry visions of the Great Hall and Graduation Day, the great day when we are no longer emhryos, hut full-fledged artists. We are steadier, surer, and more certain of ourselves and our ohjectives. Some of us are still hearing our own torches, holding on to our own original ideals, such as the never to he forgotten Latz- Heck comhination of Dr. Zuclier's lecture session. Our third year finds many memhers holding lucky num- liers in the great Selective Service Bingo. lfndaunted hy this, however. we continue to eontrihute to The Cooper Linion activities with the athletic ahility of John ,lakiun on the cinder track and Anthony l.aSala on the court. Among the missing fellow students and friends we count Seymour Vliassyng, our Class President, leaving Arthur Otto and Howard Moore to carry on. Others who have said adieu and some who have taken a leave of alisence are Salvatore Sagona, Carmine Schepis, Wvilliam Con- way, and Cuthhert Seale. Those who still remain Continue to Crowd the elevator, heckle and remind the engineers to detour at the fifth floor. Cupid is still in the running with Andino, Tohias and Meyer teams in a dead heat. No matter how troublesome our year has lreen, there are still hopes that it will end in a session of rhythm with Ernest Costa thumbing out Annual Dance plans. senior 4 Year Night Art: .I.

I I In putting forth my views now, I feel that all my classmates would feel as I do, were they given an opportunity to express themselves. At the time of this writing, the four arduous years of Iahor here at Cooper Linion are ahout to hear fruit. But as that long awaited moment of graduation draws near. we cannot help hut feel a hit uncertain as to our future, and also a little remorseful that our life at Cooper liecomes a thing of the past. These years have witnessed many changes in ourselves, in the school, and in the entire world. Vive have learned that we are vitally affected hy the affairs of this world. For that reason we are extremely grateful for the preservation of that form of government so much cherished here. We are determined that it shall continue to survive in spite of any or all de- structive forces. The changes, to ns as individuals. have heen great. We have absorbed the teachings so generously and patiently given by the faculty. Were it possible for us to express our gratitude for this to Dr. Burdell, Mr. Clark, Mr. Shaw, and the numerous other instructors who have helped us, personally. we would. Since this is not possihle. we do so through this, our farewell. We have learned to appreciate the friendships that we have cultivated and pray that they may he lifelong. In hehalf of John Ruddley. Bob Lillrich, Dorothy Sheraga, and a host of others, including myself, your president, I thank you, our class, for the honor of serving you these four years. JULIUS BRONSTEIN Well, we've gone and done it! Were referring to our establishing a precedent by being the per- petrators of the successful Art School dance not staged on the sixth floor, in fact not even in the school. The fact that art school parties are now forbidden never stopped us! We just upped and hired a hall, Webster Hall, to be specific, and if you missed us, it was the Frosh-Sophomore Frolic in the beautiful Manor Room that held those three hundred entertainment seeking Cooper Unionites. ln the brisk winter'air and by the light of the January moon, the crowd threaded their way past the brightly lighted exterior and into the opulent warmth of the Manor Room. On checking your coat and hat downstairs, you re-entered the dance floor. Speculatively studying the galaxy of gals, to your appreciative ears were wafted the sweet and hot strains of Frank Marrow's band. Grabbing a likely terpsichorette, you glided over the mirror-like floor for a turn or two. Not to be classed as any ordinary dance, entertaimnent in the form of a crooning tenor and a fast tapping dancer added to the impromptu jollity of the evening. The dance lacked none of the gaiety of a ballroom affair. Delighted with this success, each class planned a party which it hoped would be worthy of as much praise. The defensive and offensive. lowered arms, joined hands, rtist affairs a 51 N artist affairs and declared a one night truce. Dusk fell on the eve of February 15, and enveloped Ye Olde U.D.P.'s stomping grounds, wherein the resulting festivity of this unprecedented action occurred. On the right was the Cable, on the left, the Pioneer, and in the equatorial section, the Activities Plan, all jovially back-thumping and foam blowing from the fraternal barrel. The dancers whirl- ed expertly into the enmeshing crepe paper streamers, winding up, literally, with the decor on their brains. Romance, cheerful joke-swapping and terpsichore dominated the scene until suddenly the bright lights appeared and the Cablffs Julius Bronstein silenced the roaring throng with an an- nouncement. Chairs were appropriately placed in the center of the floor to accommodate satellites Sam Spool and John Charlton, and the seated ones were presented with effusive oratory and baby bottles of milk. fOne part cow, ten parts aqua.j Not at all nonplussed, the honores proceeded to imbibe, through the nipples, the calcium-containing contents. After the applause, Mr. Spool re- galed the howling mob which Mr. Bronstein's presence called to mind. The lights were then once more subdued, the phonograph turned on, and again the floor creaked under the snappy footwork of the dancers. It was around this point that the beer barrel, when accidentally jostled, gave out a rather hollow sound. The good-humored jollitty of the assemblage supported any advanced theories as to the distribution of its contents. This fact may, or may not have been responsible for Activities Plan head John Charlton's highly inspirational rendition of the businessv as interpreted by Gipsy Rose Lee. The 0.D.P.,s pool room, wherein the cloth was laid, showed signs of having been the scene of a Roman feast. The remains of the picnic supper looked tired and forlorng pickles struggled vainly in the sea of a mustard tub, potato chips, in little crumbs, lay gently over everything and cute cocktail napkins were crumpled up in disillusion.

No, not that. and it isn't any steel rope eitherl Can't you read? Oh, hello June, say hello to the folks June. June is the first lady of this sawmill.

No, hrother, she hasn't got a phone, not for guys like you any- way! See that guy there on the wall, with the pretty girl looking at him? lvell. that's only a picture.

For the benefit of the student body we herewith reveal the little known facts and processes concerning the con- ception and delivery of a Pioneer. Scene: The Pioneer Office, situated in the basement of the Foundation Building, no location being lower except the Cable Office and the men's rest room. Time: Any Friday evening. Characters: A varied assortment of morons, imbeciles, radicals. reac- tionaries, and just plain nuts. There is feverish activity in the Pioneer Office. Samuel fCessJ Spool, the Head, exudes much sweat and aerial bombast as he labors fiercely to complete the Pioneer layout. It is ten o'clock already and there are six pages this week. Seated by his chief,s side, Sam Smookler is pointing out fallacies in the layout. Spool hints very subtly that Smookler is a moron. He does this by saying, f'Smookler, you,re a moron. Around the room slouched, sprawled, and seated are a collection of mammalian vertebrates of the genus homo valiantly attempting to help put the Pioneer to bed. Over there in the corner, Milton Vogel, face flushed, is putting the finishing touches on his editorial, Babes Must Playf, Bernard Lerner is muttering to himself about Pioneer circulation. The word 'Lane- mic can be clearly heard. Al Schilling is counting words and as he reaches 564, freshman Leon Resnicow bumps into him. Schilling loses his place but not his tongue, and for several minutes the Pioneer staff is subjected to a pyrotechnic display of vocal versatility as he contributes several new ad- jectives to the American idiom. Five minutes past ten. There is a tremendous clatter and uproar! The door flies open and half the night school bursts in. For several minutes bedlam reigns because everyone wants space. The Chess Club wants more space. 'fChess try and get it, says Spool. The Fencing Club wants more space. I'll stick you in,', says Spool. The classes, the engineering socie- ties, the clubs, and even the Cable want space. Now the Draft Committee comes in, and for awhile there is much wind in the oflice. Fred Kitty Business Manager Finally all the vociferous parties depart and Spool sud- denly feels wet. This is not an unusual feeling for Ye Ed, but this time there's a reason. The Cable Staff, eternal ene- my of the Pioneer. has drilled a hole in the partition, and by means of a pipe, is flooding the Pioneer. It is a dire emer- gency, but Spool is equal to it. Realizing that there is no lower place than the Cable Oflice. and that water will always seek its own level, he starts to drill another hole near the bottom of the partition. Quickl he shrieks, a very sharp instrument. How about your tongue? says Herman Nack. But Spool suc- ceeds by using the cuffs of Gilbert WCllICl'.S pants. The Hood waters recede. The Pioneer is saved. Once again Spool has revealed his ingenuity. It is eleven o'clock. One hour left and still much to do. Fred Kitty, the Business Manager, comes in, looks at Milton J. Minnemaifs record of supper allowances and faints. Wat's de ideef, he bellows, when revived near the Cable office. Desc guys don't do enough woik to desoive supper moueyf, You said it, moans Israel Jaffe, 'gall dese bums do is watch for the Art School girls passing by the door. Yeah, there's loads of 'em always going by. Donit ask me why. Ralph Medaisky and Edward Blum, laboring over a headline, have finally hit upon one. All bright and shining, Medaisky proudly yells, Hey, chief, howis dis?', Headline: Hoopsters Rally in Third Quarter. Sub-head: Cooper Loses to Tank U, 77-36. As Medaisky leaves the room under the impetus derived from the editorial foot, Morris Slotkin, super cartoonist, barges in. In the typing and rewrite room all effort is mockery. ,lohn Rozolis, Associate Editor, has just finished a fiery edi- torial demanding free toothpif-ks for students eating lunch in school. In times like these, student health is paramount . . . Halitosis is the cause of many engineering failures! . . . T? ft N , 114-C Pionsgg Quick action imperative . . . etc.. etc.. the editorial reads. But right now llozolis is corrupting the morals ol the women on the staff. Gathered round him, Mildred Cansherg. llita l.ong. Florence Celles. Jeanette Kaplan, Zelda Zuhotkin.

Although the members of the club are all engineers at heart and must look to the engineering side of science, their private dabblings within the club have gone far to credit both the Department and the students at Cooper Union. This is accomplished largely by regular meetings at which the members are invited to present papers on any topic of mathematical interest. The spring of 1940 saw discussed such topics as, Differential Equations, Introduction to ltelativityf, and 'The Isograph, A Machine That Solves Equations Mechanicallywg among the fall papers were, '4Dimen- sional Analysis and Higher Geometry. All the lectures were ac- companied by animated discussion periods in which everybody par- ticipated informally. The financial success of the team in the Putnam Contest made it not at all ilillicult to pay for the Freshman Slide Rule prize and the Sophomore Calculus Medal award, as well as for numer- ous valuable additions to the clulfs library.

At a typical recess bull sessionf, the trend of conversation had become increasingly serious. Twelve future advertising men were dis- cussing commercial art as a career. ln a short time we would be out ol' school and in business competition with each other. We dwelt at length upon the helpful spirit of co-operation that had existed in our group since we began our courses together. Frank con- structive criticism and friendly suggestions among fellows had resulted in mutual benefit. But why. in becoming competitors. should we strive selfishly to climb the ladder of success alone? Why couldn't we work in the same close harmony in commercial enterprises as we had in our individual assignments -2 Our ideals are practical. We are simply an alliance of advertising artists. combined for the purpose of working shoulder to shoulder toward the goal of success for all our members. We encourage friendly competition, assist each other in securing and executing free lance work and in finding permanent employment, and we offer constructive sug- gestions to the other members when their commercial problems are discussed at our Idea Forums. All that we require of an advertising student who wants to join is that he show evidence of possessing the talent and other qualities necessary for success in commercial art. ewman lub Newman fluh Officer et See 1 Trea C Rohrs Nice Pres Da it The Newman Club is a recognized organization, formed for the promotion of religious, educational, and social activities.

Discussions are followed hy dancing. During the summer months contact is maintained among t-luli members hy informal gatherings. Vfithin the last year typical meetings have included a beach party: lectures hy Father Ford, Chaplain of the New York Provinceg a Community Sing, and a Corporate Communion. The first meetings of the school term are informal social affairs conducted to acquaint the club with prospective members. These meet- ings turn out most enjoyable for all, and friendships created by the mutual interests of the members are continually being strengthened. ln accordance with its purpose of providing professional contacts and a forum for the student engineer. the Cooper Linion Chapter of the .-Xmerican Society of Civil Engineers pursued a vigorous program. To dispel the doubts and apprehensions of many concerning tht- draft. Mr. Williams of the engineering staff opened the scholastic year with a timely explanation of Conscription and the Civil Engineer. Next. Mr. Turner. an engineer with the New York Tunnel Authority. spoke of the difficulties encountered in The Construction of the Queens- Midtown Tunnel. This talk increased student respect for the imagi- nation and ingenuity of the practicing engineer. A sound film. provided hy the Asphalt Institute. on the nature and uses of asphalt hrought to the attention of the student several unsus- pected properties of that material. Une of the more sensational of the programs was furnished hy Mr. C. J. Mullin. a consulting engineer and a former Cooper Lvnion man. He showed hlms of the disastrous Tacoma Bridge collapse and led a lively discussion on its failure. This year the society is proud that the chairman of the Metro- politan Conference of Student Chapters is Sidney Vveniger. the chapters vice-chairman. For the remainder of the year the officers expect to continue a similar program and they look forward to a pleasant evening with the faculty and students at the society's annual dinner.

With approximately eighty-five per cent of all Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Chemical Engineers enrolled in the Day Chapter of the A.I.Ch.E., a far-reaching and varied program of entertainment and lectures marked the activities of the organization for this year. Under the guiding hand of Professor R. J. Kunz, faculty adviser, the officers of the chapter strove to make this one of the most successful years in its existence and received excellent co-operation from members and the faculty. The student chapter of this Society seeks 'fthe friendship of a practitioneri' of chemical engineering and receives from him advice Has to utilization of his fthe student'sj opportunities and the construc- tion to be put upon his experience. Mindful of this purpose, the Chapter presented several lectures and many technical movies. Among the former was a speech by Mr. Melvin E. Clark, Assistant Editor of Chemical and Metallurgical Engineering, who spoke on 6'Planning a Career in Chemical Engineeringf' Later, a lecture was delivered by Professor T. B. Drew of Columbia University on '4Boiling of Liquidsf' His lecture was accompanied by a very interesting motion picture on the subject. Other movies included Liquid Air, and 4'The Arrangement of Atoms and Molecules in a Crystal. Again the most outstanding feature of the A.l.Ch.E.'s program of entertainment was the Annual Freshmen lleception. Vllith the Juniors furnishing the brains and brawn, a program of mirth and pseudo- education was presented to a large audience of teachers, Art students, and Tech men. Part one, i'Better Living Through Chemistry, fea- tured ice, the wonderfuel. perpetual motion and Matilda, the chemical cow that gave mu-juice. The second part of the show was 'Tour f?t Vllasted fllj Years-or How to Become a Comical Engineer starring Paul Pickett and Lew Cleekman. The Entertainment Committee- Messrs. Brower, Scovronek, Teller. and Cordon-excelled in the pres- entation of the third part of the show which was Facultasia.i' The winner of the Freshman Problem was Walter C. Lapple. 2 CILE., who received as his reward a copy of the Hanzllmolf of Clzenzistrbr and Ph.rsics. A sound comedy and the ever-present coffee and doughnuts con- cluded this exceptional program which brought to a close the 1940 part of the current program. -1- 1l'rll ll L Dax 1 ri e la get L Cleckinan na b W 1 ei ,... .... , t.l.Ch.E.

The objectives set forth in the planning of this yearis program are rapidly attaining their purpose tln'ougl1 the keen and active interest of the largest membership that the night chapter has ever had. Wie are proud to announce that over one lmndred members plus a number of their friends attend our meet- ings and gatherings. participate in programs. and leave with a satisfied feeling that they have enjoyed and benefited by the time spent. We have tried to induce a spirit of fellowship among the members of our chapter so that lower classmen may know upper classmen. upper class- men may know lower classmen and that all can be together on common ground in discussing their problems with one another. :Xt one of our meetings Professor Peterson reviewed the manu- facture and uses of naval stores. At another. we enjoyed a very inter- esting lecture by Major H. E. Miller of the Chemical Wiarfare Reserve, who showed us very interesting movies on the field operations of chem- ical units of the U. S. Army. The officers and program committee have planned many other splendid programs which. up to this writing. are still to be developed. Each month there is scheduled a guest speaker, at least one movie on some topic of a chemical engineering nature. and a plant trip. Wie are still looking forward this year to the meetings which will feature such speakers as Dr. Z. C. Deutsch and Dr. Charles L. Mantell. These men are consultants in the field of chemical engineering, and from their many years of experience, will undoubtedly be able to tell us what problems face chemical engineers and how to cope with them. To complete the year. there are also scheduled a student paper contest, a speaker on personnel problems, and possibly a purely social gather- ing. l.et us hope. therefore, that those principles. those high ideals. and that spirit of companionship among our members which has been handed down to us and which we pass on will continue to live and to increase in the activities of this chapter. The correlation of theoretical learning with practical application is fostered by the Student Branch of the A.l.E.E. This is accomplished through lectures, student speakers, and field trips. Mutual benefits may be derived through cooperation among the various professional engineering societies. ln keeping with this idea a joint meeting was held, during which the A.S.M.E. and the A.I.E.E. student branches were addressed by Mr. Parsons, a representative of Consolidated Edison, who spoke on the subject, 4'Power Generation and Distribution in New York City. From this it can be seen that an overlapping knowledge of both divisions of engineering is necessary to apply oneself fully in either. The Cooper Union was probably the largest group attending the Second Annual Metropolitan Student A.l.E.E. Smoker. Twenty-seven Cooper students constituted a good majority of the Pratt radio-room visitors, log. Before the jovialities began, Pratt's facilities for en- gineering study were explored. Donald R. Dohner's Industrial De- sign and Engineerf' which emphasized the need for harmony between the engineer and artistic designer, was the most popular feature of the evening. The frivolity was enriched by the presence of Professor Towle, our new adviser, and Mr. A. J. B. Fairburn. Over coffee and doughnuts, everyone enjoyed one of those well-known bulb, sessions. The drawing power, as if it needed any, was greatly enhanced by the female dietitians. A.l.L.l'.. Day: Pres.. J. Caswell, Y. res., A. Gottfried, Sec., F. llimmer reas., llerslitielml. A.l.E.E.

The evening division of the student branch of the American ln- stitute of Electrical Engineers at The Cooper Union, whose membership is open to all electrical engineers in the night school, functions, in the words ofthe Institute, 'Las an organization for aiding in the development of the latent abilities of students, primarily by offering them opportuni- ties to ,carry on activities quite similar in nature to those which are carried on by the Institute members, such as the holding of meetings, the presentation and discussion of papers, reports and abstracts, par- ticipation in inspection trips to places of engineering interest, etcf' This year the officers have endeavored to have as many students deliver talks before the members as possible. invariably the student speaker Ends that the experience he gains is of inestimable value. He learns that an effective presentation calls for a thorough preparation and understanding of the subject matter, as well as the ability to interest his audience by varying his tone and pace. With the help of the De- partment of Humanities, the students who were scheduled to talk were coached in the fundamentals of public speaking. Records of parts of the talk that the student had prepared were made and played back. Means for improving the talk were then discussed with the student by some of the instructors of the Department: the suggestions proved very effective. Membership in the branch is open to all Electrical Engineering students. A.S.5I.E. Top---E. Frost, J. lleiman, A. Bettinger, C. Erway, E. Peluso. S. Smonkler, W. Sinlvvk. C. Rllhff. P. Nafflflne. J.

A really competent basketball coach w'as obtained, and he immediately started to build the foundation for a first class team. This year we have most of last year's squad and also Coach De Phillips. Although the schedule consists of many new and even tougher opponents, it is expected that the team will fin- ish the season with a record topping that of last year. Playing before an overflow crowd of 300 fans at the Grace Chapel Cym, Cooper won its first game, defeating Queens College 33 to 23. With this lead the Cooper team was never headed. Bob Huber was high scorer with l2 points, giving an im- pressive performance in his first varsity game. The second game of the season resulted in victory over Hudson College by the very close score of 27 to 26. Al Skorski converted a foul shot in the last twenty seconds of play to enable Cooper to emerge triumphant. Following a loss to Pratt, 45 to 54, Cooper also lost to Newark LY. Our team was outplayed from the start. Newark scoring 13 points before Cooper broke the ice. The next week. Cooper bested Paterson by a tune of 84 to 28, with Greenberg and little Red Rivas doing most of the sharp shooting. This miraculous score contributed greatly to increasing the morale and spirit of the team as a whole. With Long leading the way. Yeshiva was defeated 32 to 28. The following week. Manhattan put the damper on high Cooper hopes, win- ning 51 to 15 from a scrappy Cooper Quintet. ru le tra le tru Early last year a small group of students got together and formed the Track Club of The Cooper Union. These few students with the help of the Ath- letic Association were able to make quite a sea- son of it last year. The outdoor season was not sensational, but it did show what a team com- posed of only ten members could do. Among the opponents of last year were Brooklyn Col- lege, Brooklyn Poly, Queens College and New- ark College of Engineering. One of the personalities of this original ten was Melvin Holzsager, who because of his great- est amount of individual points, must be consid- ered the star of this first year of track. Others, who call themselves veterans of last year, are Gus Raabe, miler: Herbert Coltin and Al Crega, 100 yard dashersg Paul Piech and Phil Zinn, 220 and 440 yard dashersg Martinez Boni, 1 milerg and John Jakiun, Paul Bobay and Mar- tin Malchenson. This season many new candidates have joined the club. Dan Daybocli and Walter Brooks, iwif milersg Ambrose Hayes and Ben Kap- lan, high jumpersg and Paul Bleier and Stephan Schiffman, 220 and 440 yard dashers are among Track Team. Top -P. Zinn, W.

At the last count, the team to- day numbers well over forty, so that the stress and strain of meeting various other schools will be evened out over a greater number of men. An event of great importance to the club is the appointment of Mr. John M. Woods, former- ly on the coaching staff of the 69th Regiment Athletic Association, as official coach of the track club for this season. Mr. Woods has been asso- ciated with track for the past twenty-seven years, and his wide experience should prove to be of great advantage to the track club. Emphasis will be placed on the develop- ment of crack LQ and 1 mile relay teams. Once these relay teams are formed they will be given their first test at the Montclair Class B Inter- collegiate meet. Other meets listed on the schedule are meets with Brooklyn Poly, Savage, Queens, Newark, and L. l. U. All meets are to be outdoor ones since na- tional defense has closed local armories to track, forcing the abandonment of the indoor season. Mel Holzsager and Gus Haabe were elected Co-Captains and will lead the club on to what is hoped to be a victorious season. Paul Piecli, assisted by George De Younge, has the job of filling the managerial post. Schiffman, A. Crega. Boltonz--Xl. Brooks, M. llolzsager, C.

At the first meeting of the class, the boys were put through a prelim- inary test by Mr. Hollinger in order to eliminate those who could not qualify for the rest of the test. After this first meeting, the class was taken over by Mr. Bowman, instructor in the Humani- ties Department, for the rest of the year. Those fellows who were present at all of the meetings were George Clark Simeon Wlritoriiak Irving Schelnbart Gilbert Vtferner Hank Wir tanen Bud Mandle Bernard Lerner and Henry Schwrebert The so called champions were George Clark free style Simeon Wlllt0I1lak breast stroke Irving Scheinbart all around and Gilbert Werner doggie paddle One of the most enjoyable features of these sessions was the informal games which were plaved after the life saving course was over Among these games were swimming relays and push ball Push ball proved a good opportunity for some of the boys to gang up for once on Mr Bowman However although small in stature Mr Bowman packed a lot of energy When a number of the boys nonchalantly tried to duck him under they were very surprised to find themselves gasping for air instead As rn every informal group which takes les sons together there were a number of incidents during the class wlrrch will always provide fond memories IH years to come The fellows will never forget the time Wlntonrak who weighs a mere 220 pounds grasped 130 pound lVlr Bow man and attempted to swrm with the latter who was holding tightly to the push hall to the goal Upon reaching the end of the pool however Mr Bowman put his feet against the wall and gave a terrific push Well Wirrtcrrriak will never forget that peculiar feeling as he made a rapid de cent head over heels to the bottom of the pool We never failed to admire Gilbert Werrrer s peculiar swimming strokes which he ard gained him a po ltion on his high thool wimming term Gilbert had the adxantage of 1 weeping fand we do mean wecprngj arm motion wlnch gave him a l m o st uperhuman propul ron through the water ' s 9 1 1 ' 1 1 , ' v' - ' - a . 1 , . . . . 7 ' ' 3 9 J 1 f 1 9 ' - n vs , J .

Uw'lllSf'h. mu alpha omi ron The Mu Alpha Omicron, the Honor Society of The Cooper Union, has just completed its first year under its revised constitution which provided that students of the Night School of Engineering, in addition to those of the Institute of Tech- nology, be eligible for membership in the society. By the addition of Night School students, the M.A.0. has been able to apply itself in a broader scope to carrying out the purposes of its organization, namely: to afford recognition to students of such outstanding scholastic ability, character, and breadth of vision, as commands the respect of others, and to render any fitting service to The Cooper Union of which the organization is capable. ln line with its policy of promoting student activities, the M.A.0. encouraged the formation of a Professional Societies Council at which the presidents of the Day and Night Professional Societies could discuss their mutual problems. It is hoped that this council will bring about more joint activities among these societies. For undoubtedly, combined plant trips, dinners, and meetings will result in a greater unity of the student body. ln the past summer a new service was inaugurated. Summer tutoring classes were held for those students wishing aid for the fall re-examinations. The suc- cess of these classes may be judged by the percentage of students who passed after attending these classes. According to information tabulated, 100 percent of the students of Mechanics and Materials and 81 percent of the students tutored in Elec- tricity and Magnetism passed the re-examinations. The Society was gratified to re- ceive the commendation of the faculty for this work. The faculty, in addition, recommended that administrative assistance be extended in the future. Vllith such assistance the M.A.0. feels that the continuation of these summer classes is as- sured. The year's program was not entirely devoid of its lighter moments. Members elected last April look back with satisfaction on a pleasing dinner plus smorgas- bord, and a floor show at the Wlivel. Nor will soon be forgotten the impressive ln- duction and Reunion Dinner at the Bonnie Stonewall lnn. It is with an optimistic feeling that the M.A.O. thinks of its future work. For with Day and Night Tech members cooperating so successfully this year, even greater results can be expected in years to Come. Fratres in Facultale Prof. ll. C. Enders C. George KTl'llfIf T R. 1.

'sson om ga delta phi Omega Delta Phi Fraternity was first organized on March 21. 1903. when a small group of Cooper Union Night School students with noble ideas and purposes formed an organiza- tion based on close friendship. The brotherhood grew with such an increasing membership that in 1913 it was incorporated under the Laws of the State of New York as the Omega Delta Phi Fraternity, lnc. In 1915 the original body was granted a charter as the Alpha Chap- ter. Two years later Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, following the inspiration of the Alpha Chapter, organized the Beta Chapter under the Omega Delta Phi leadership. New York Uni- versity, Cooper Lvnion Day Tech, and Brooklyn College followed suit and one by one became respectively the Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon Chapters. It was natural for Omega Delta Phi to add the Cooper Union Day Tech to its chapters soon after the formation of the school. How- ever. the constant endeavor of the fraternity to expand has not ceased, but is still in progress, as is evidenced by the recent formation of the Zeta Club in St. ,1ohn's University. No fra- ternity would be complete without a branch which receives the alumni members. The Omega Delta Phi has provided for its alumni by the Alumni Organization and the more active Alumni Club. Since 'acollege life at Cooper limited. the fraternity takes on a much deeper mean- ing. As prospective engineers. we must consider our college life as a ground work on which to build our later lives. This is not only dependent on our technical training, but also upon our ability to get along with others. This trait can only be acquired by practice during the years of college training. The social functions of the Omega Delta Phi Fraternity offer the students an opportunity to gain new friends from the graduates and undergraduates of other colleges in addition to np De e. R. Dahl.

The regular meetings of the fraternity and the opportunity for leadership and cooperation give the members something that they could not expect to gain otherwise. The training pro- vided in the management of the fraternity affairs of business and pleasure will prove invaluable to the man in later life. During the past academic year the Alpha and Delta chapters have both made outstanding advances under the leadership of their officers. The Delta Chapter has been ably led by President, Charles Cichoskig Vice-President, Charles Schaffnerg Treasurer, Charles Merzg and Secretary, Jack Meng. The ofhcers of the Alpha Chapter were: President, Andrew Rosenbergg Vice-President, George Missong Treasurer, Howard Fenstererg and Secretary, Charles Olson. In keeping with school policy, Dmega Delta Phi has chosen Mr. Perez as its faculty adviser and he will provide the necessary link between the activities of the fraternity and the school. This choice of faculty adviser met with the unanimous approval of the entire membership of both chap- ters. It is felt that Mr. Perez will prove capable of fulfilling his duties as a contact between the school and the fraternity. We are fortunate in having an active group of pledges. We feel sure that they will carry on the work of maintaining the high standards upon which the fraternity was founded. The proximity of the fraternity rooms, situated at 4 St. Marks Place, to the school, makes them accessible to the fraters and their friends to meet and enjoy the various recreational facilities of the rooms.

Since that time it has grown to have the largest membership of any fraternity in The Cooper Union. The structure whose foundation was laid so well has expanded until it is now a national fraternity with chapters at New York University, Newark College, and Pratt Institute. Phi Sigma Omega has many social functions during the year which not only allow the student to forget his worries and school work but tend to form a closer bond among the men by giving them a chance to meet each other away from the class room. Among the social activities are annual spring and fall dances. ln addition to these are numerous parties held at the fraternity rooms throughout the year. The brothers find excellent use for the fraternity house at 39 East Seventh Street as a community den wherein they may gather to relax or to attempt to understand some of the 'ssimplerv assignments received at The Cooper Union. It is at these gatherings that the true spirit of friendliness and helpfulness is shown at its best.
