Clyde Kimbrough. Nathan EstrofT. W e were told before we began our task of making Senior Steel that it was so very necessary that the finished product lx- of the best, because each one of us would have a great part to play in the machinery of the. world, so therefore we were told to he sure that every alloy and all minor substances be removed l eforc turning it out into the finished product. •'—In the Freshman process of the experiment we use the first eleven of our materials by placing the crucible over the Fairfield High Burner and slowly and carefully heating it. Mr. Stuckey carried the first steps of the process to a conclusion. S—After a lapse of three minutes the process was again heated, this was the Sophomore stage. This time the Crucible was heated under the direction of Mr. Clements (who was also the Football Coach) hut wc had less luck in the second step than in the first because just at the last it boiled over, losing several of our treasured materials. J—Again after the same lapse of time we placed our old materials from the step before in the Crucible and gave the job of our supervision to Mrs. Pratft and this time to aid in the process we used as a catalyst a few more of our materials. Just as the process neared conclusion we found to our sorrow that several of the materials had not reached the desired stage so they were separated from the Juniors and re-heated before going ‘on to the last process known as the Senior. .V— Again in the last process our four last materials were added along with the remains of the old material and were put into the Crucible under the guidance of Miss Cannon, and with a few exceptions Senior Steel was completed leaving as the product, substances of the truest metal and as a by-product, pleasant memories and many honors.
