Edison In- stitute is in Greenfield Village and is operated under the plans es- tablished by Henry Ford. To be prepared to enter the In- stitute George completed his high school at Cooley High this summer. The Technical Institute was started in Sept. 1937. Advanced courses in mechanical, electrical, chemical, and agricultural engi- neering are offered. Students attend school four hours in the morning and gain ac- tual experience by working four hours during the afternoon in the laboratories of the Edison Insti- tute and Ford Motor Co. First Place Rating Given to Craftsman by Quill S Scroll International First Place Award was won by The Craftsman at the last Judging of Quill and Scroll, international honorary Journal- istic society. This award, the first given to The Craftsman since Joining the society last June, is exceeded only by the International Honor Award. Joseph Pinko, Stanley Kaczmarek, Harold McRay, Edward Vargo, and Frank Sullivan were awarded member- ships in the society at the time of the rating. Crump Awarded Lawrence Institute Scholarship of ten qualified the annual five year Lawrence In- stitute scholar- ship award, William C r u m p, who was graduated last June, emerged as the winner. Bill was also graduated last June from Northern High Evening School with a high honor rating and a scho- lastic average of Bill now attends Lawrence Insti- tute three evenings a week. He is still enrolled in the Trade School. His average in the school shop is A-B, and his class average is A. Each year the scholarship offers a standard college degree course in engineering to the boy whose scholastic record in the Trade School is the most meritorious. The committee for the selection was composed of Messrs. F. E. Searle, G. A. Yerex, J. H. Wolfe, and E. H. Bailey. Eugene Adams, last year's selec- tion, is reported to be doing ex- cellent work. From a group candidates for Bill Crump Photo Club Organized Boys interested in organizing a photography club are urged to see 0. R. Scott, chemistry instructor, in Room 45 as soon as possible. The club will meet from 3 to 4 p. m. on nights most convenient for the boys. The amount of inter- est shown by the boys will deter- mine the number of courses given. Instruction will be given in de- veloping, printing, and probably enlarging. Stag Party Planned for 22nd Anniversary Adam will leave Eve at home this year. For this year's Annual Trade School Party, commemorating the school's twenty-second anniver- sary, will be a stag affair. More than a thousand letters, announcing the plans for the party, have been mailed to all alumni whose addresses are available. Four Trade School students typed two days addressing the envelopes and filling in the names. F. W. Edwards and C. C. Crawford, former officials of the school, are working with Supt. F. E. Searle in arranging the party. Mr. Ed- wards and Mr. Crawford left the school in 1928. Mr. Crawford is now teaching at the George Vocational School in Detroit, while Mr. Edwards is in the insurance business in Detroit. The letter read: How would you like to spend an evening with the old gang who used to go to the Trade School with you? At the last alumni dinner we were remarking about the small num- ber of old timers there, so this committee, composed of Colin (Stuffy) Crawford, F. W. Eddie” Edwards, and F. E. Searle was formed to try and get all the former students together. We want every one there who can possibly be on hand to meet his gang wheth- (Continued on page 3) Military Band Ready for School Activities Started less them six months eigo, the Trade School Military Band, comprising 31 members including Isaia Red Petovello, the able, willing organizer, is prepared to provide music at school athletic games and Thursday singing ses- sions.

Stool ting ▼el. , Mo. 1 Friday, 3ept. 23, 1956 Live in a Progressive Era Around the World in Eighty Days, a strange etory by Jules Verne, ap- peared in France in 1872. Around the world in eighty days I How im- possible I said the French people. Howard Hughes, 66 years later, flew around the world in 3 days, 19 hours, and 8 minutes. Progress? Yes. Change? Unmis- takably. To live successfully in a progressive era, students must not leave their preparation to chance. Good habits of study must be formed. A desire to know why and how is of prime importance. At the beginning of a new year the time is propitious for the ac- quiring of emulous qualities. The time for formal training in school is short; don't waste it. In Memory Each year as summer approaches and as every boy longs to spend his days in the outdoors. Dame Trade 6chool unfolds her arms and bids her students go and enjoy the long-awaited vacation. Although she shares each boy's delight at being released, she also nourishes a secret sorrow, for she knows that seme of them she will never see again. Then, as autumn concludes the vacations she again clasps her boys to her bosom and fearfully begins to look for the missing. This fall, three beloved stu- dents failed to answer 7:30 roll call . Now, as she watches her boys passing through the halls, she quietly mourns the absence of John Letters, Francis Bogue, and Robert Bibbee. John and Francis were killed in automobile acci- dents, while Robert died of inju- ries received while diving. One-Cent Loss Equals $20 The loss of one one-cent in- crease in scholarship in one year's time amounts to approximate- ly $20.00. There Eire many useful or pleas- ant ways in which this money could be spent. One would have enough to buy a good candid camera or to make a trip during his vacation. A round trip ticket, on the bus, to the New York World's Fair could be bought and still have $2 left. Then there's that set of golf clubs or fishing equipment. In three yeeirs the loss is ap- proximately $60. With this money three weeks could be spent at a summer camp with all expenses paid and still have enough for a one year membership at the Y.M.C.A. All graduation expenses could be paid Including a new suit and the price of the dinner-dance. The money might also be set aaide to- wards that new celt you someday hope to have. All this means that once an in- crease In scholarship is lost. It can never be regained. However, if you have missed one, you can resolve never to miss smother. Foot Structure Delicate, Bad Heels Impair Health Few people realize how delicate a structure the foot is and how easily it can be injured. The foot consists of 26 perfect- ly arranged bones which support the body's weight and allow free play of the parts when we move about. Rundown shoe heels injure the feet, thus impairing the health. The fact that boys in the Trade- School spend most of the day on their feet wears out the heels quickly. Heels may be rundown, on the outside or inside, the lat- ter is more common with people who have flat feet. According to medical authorities, rundown heels may cause nervous- ness, sore leg muscles, fallen arches, backaches, Emd sometimes headaches. They not only cause physical troubles but tend to affect the personal appearance, causing poor gait and unkempt appeELTELnce. Chemist Visits West, Misfortune Begins CEime night'. And the headlights showed a ribbon of white highway winding up Emd down betwixt the Western Utedi hills. O'er this highway a '37 Ford bowled along at a prodigious clip. The driver, a chemist by trade, gradually sensed that his steering apparatus was failing. By the time the said driver, whan further identification re- vealed as Roy Yerex Emd his wife, reached the margin of a flourish- ing town the steering system proved definitely paralyzed. Mr. Yerex ushered his traveling pEma- phernalia into the first repair station they accosted in the town, which, by the wELy, had been chris- tened Salt Lake City 91 years be- fore. Misfortune, however, begat mis- fortune'. Strange enough, not a mechanic in the whole city would oblige the strEmded travelers. There, all mechanics were union men. And union men in BrighEun Young's settlement don't work on the Sabbath. No, Sir'. So the auto wrecked tourists were compelled to hfimg up for the nlte in the brine- water city. Monday morn awoke clear and gay upon the late arrivals. The whole population, in fact, seemed Emi- mated in the esmly a. m. But Mr. Yerex, mindful of his itinerary plight, repaired to town in quest of a mechanic. But sorry was his luck I Mechamics were still In imperturbable hibernation! Mondays weren't always sacred to the Mormans, he leELmed, but this pEmticulELT one commemorated the 91st year since Brigham Young founded his colony at Salt Lake City. The citizens observed the day with marked festivity. Union men didn't work on Emni- versEtries, either! So Mr. Yerex had to content himself with hoping that Tuesday wasn't the mayor's birthday or the Fourth of July, in which event mechanics would be back in circulation! Americsms consume 80,000 miles of hot dogs a yesir.
