It occupies a unique position among the research organizations of the nation in that it is an incorporated non-profit institution operating as a division of Illinois Institute of Technology. The Armour Research Foundation is able to offer the services ofa large staff to the industries of the area for the solution of problems of industrial research. Its equipment staffs are Iarger and more diversified than any of the subscribing industries could hope to maintain individually. One of the outstanding products of the Armour Research Foundation is the famed wire recorder. Further work at ARF continues on this project and its applica- tions to the motion picture industry. Dr. ,Iesse E. Hobson is director of the Armour Research Foundation. I'Ie formerly acted as head of the Electrical Engineering Department at IIT. JESSE E. HOBSON 7 1 xx F ijlfli t 1.

Formed and sup- ported by the gas industry, IGT, through its affiliation with IIT furnishes that industry with men holding masters' degrees. These advanced degrees are offered through a co-operative program. The present goal is an enrollment of sixty students. In addition to the educational program IGT has two other primary purposes. These are the pursuit of basic research in gas technology and the carrying out of sponsored research for its member companies. To this end the IGT contemplates completion of one wing of its new building on 34th Street before the end of 1947, with completion of the entire building by 1950. Captain Elmer S. Pettyjohn is the director of the Institute of Gas Technology. Captain Pettyjohn is weII known for his work at the University of Michigan and as head of the U.S. Navy Technical Mission's oil team in Germany following the second world conflict. ff' ELMER S.

Soon afterward he was awarded the commission for the new campus. No other modern architect has had an opportunity to design on so large a scale. The completed campus will be one of the rare executed examples of group planning by a contemporary architect. ln his inaugural address as director of architecture, Mr. van der Rohe expressed the aim and meaning of the department worlc this way: By our practical aims we are bound to the specific structure of our epoch. Our values on the other hand are rooted in the spiritual nature of men . . . Education must lead us . . . from chance and arbitrariness to rational clarity and intellectual order . . . therefore let us guide our students over the road of dis- cipline of materials, through function, to creative worlc . . . The long path from material through function to creative worlc has only a single goal: to create order out of the desperate confusion of our time . . . Nothing can express the meaning of our worlc better than the profound words of Saint Augustine: 'Beauty is the splendor of truth' FACULTY G. Danforth, L. Hilbersei Page Twenty mer, T. Burleigh, A.

Page Twenly Four Pl Y . , K Ihe Iechnical Drawing Department has as it's chair- man Professor Henry C. Spencer who received his B. A. at Baylor University and his B. S. at Texas A. and M. University. Drawing is a graphical language enabling the engin- eer to record mental pictures of the detail to be built and to convey the ideas to the constructor. Conse- quently, the language belongs not only to the drafts- man, but to the engineer as weII. The comprehension of technical drawing is one ol the fundamental subjects for the engineer and architect. Most of the department's Facilities are at present concentrated on the Fifth floor of the Main Building. Three additional drawing rooms, complete with modern equipment, were constructed Iast summer on the former site of 'I'ech's old gymnasium. Upon completion of the new chemistry and metallurgical engineering buildings, the Technical Drawing Department plans to expand their facilities by occupying the entire fourth and Fifth floors of the Main Building.

Rushton -.........,...,..........,.........-.-.M During its forty-seven year history, the Chemical Engineering department has nourished its extensive list of honors until today it becomes one of the first departments to occupy the new buildings under the expansion program undertaken by IIT. One of the first engineering courses offered at Armour, the Chemical Engineering department found its way onto the First list of accredited departments in the country. The new Chemical Engineering and Metallurgical Engineering building presents a ten-fold expansion of space for increased activities in both graduate and undergraduate research work in laboratory Facilities For Unit Operations and Process Studies. The completed Unit Cperations laboratory will be one of the largest in the country for this purpose. With the change in department heads in 1946 the curriculum has been rearranged to make room for new required courses. J. H. Rushton, who has had 18 years teaching ex- perience in several larger universities and who was active in industrial and consulting work lor severalyears, became the head of the Chemical Engineering depart- ment in September, 1946 replacing H. McCormack who was the first departmental head. . FACULTY Page Twenty Eight '-P' ,e--fy.,-.,.f ,,,,,.-. ., , ,,, W . ROW 1: R. Kintner, V. Komarewsky, L, Smith, ROW 2: W. Resnick, j. Schommer, R.

With the increasing intrest in the Field of Chemical Engineering the chapter has grown from a handful ol members in 1923 to an organization embracing a large portion of the chemical engineering students at Illinois Tech today. Calling on men prominent in engineering to tallc on the various phases of the field and to explain special problems which may arise, members of the AlChE have become more thoroughly acquainted with the basic principles of engineering and are more fully prepared to undertake the duties of a chemical engineer. Following the precedence set by members during past semesters, Field trips to several industrial plants in and about Chicago have been scheduled For various times throughout this semester. A smoker was held at the beginning of this term to acquaint new members with the chapter. Men from this chapter are to be found in industry throughout this country and abroad.

Page Thirty Three A Symbolum - Mark of l'lonor l Such is the status of Phi Lambda Upsilon, honorary chemistry fraternity. And Fitting it is, For only the very top students who have exhibited impressive tendencies in original investigation in chemistry and chemical engineering are invited to join. Membership requirements, particularly scholastic standing, are among the highest oi all honor- aries at illinois Tech. Phi Lambda Upsilon, the ninth oldest honorary Frater- nity in the United States, was Founded in 1889 at the University of illinois to increase the lcnowledge ol the importance of chemistry in the world of today. Omicron chapter was organized at IIT in 1920 and has maintained an active program ever since. Besides participating in interhonorary activities the Chapter cooperates with the various chemical societies in organizing field trips. Each year a Handbook of Physics and Chemistry is presented to the. sophomore in the chemistry or chemical engineering department having the highest scholastic average. ln the future, the names of the winners of the award will also be engraved on a plaque to be installed in the Chemistry building.

Freud Dr. Martin Kilpatrick, chairman ol the Chemistry De- partment, in the past year inaugerated a new curriculum for both the graduate and undergraduate divisions. The purpose of the new curriculum is to equip the student with a more sound lioundation of the general aspects of chemistry while at the same time preparing him For the needs of the particular field he chooses for specialization, whether it be research, education, or industry. Since the modern trend is toward instrumental methods of analysis, particular stress is being made in this Field. The new curriculum meets the standards set by the American Chemical Society and will be effective the Fall semester of 1948. The past year was an eventful one For the Chemistry Department. With the completion of the new chemistry building the staff Found new quarters. Graduate students as well as the undergrads were alloted more lecture and laboratory space. The spring saw the iniation of the extensive, well equipped, modern laboratories For in- struction in general chemistry, qualitative and quanti- tative analysis, and organic and physical chemistry.

Alpha Chi Sigma, national professional chemical fraternity, was founded at the University of Wisconsin in 1909 by a group of fellow students in chemistry. The fraternity has since then become the largest professional chemical fraternity in the world, having fifty-three active chapters. It is the most active organization of its kind on the l. l. T. campus. As the organization is basically a professional frater- nity, continuous activity in the group is one of its funda- mental premises. Alumni interest may be seen from the activity and expansion of the alumni group until at the present time there are seventeen professional chapters. At the close of the spring term in 1947, the Alpha Psi chapter initiated ninteen men into its ranlcs. This was the first full size initiation since before the war. With its swell in membership, the chapter has enjoyed an increase in social activities. Highlighting the spring season was a dance in the Student- Union. A combined bowling meet and stag party was held early in May. An informal initiation brought the spring social events to a close. The fall semester opened with a number of activities including a dance, a founders day banquet, and the initiation of seventeen new men. ROW 1: G. Kleinrnan, Reporter, E. Cornwell, President, R.

Page Forty One E' Mm i ' 's 4 Founded in 1944, the student affiliate chapter oi the American Chemical Society is one of the newer organi- zations on the Illinois Institute ol Technology campus. Nevertheless the society has played an ever-increasing part in its aim to Foster the professional development of chemistry and chemical engineering students. In addition to the lectures, Field trips and movies spon- sored by the chapter, the members attended professional meetings at the Merchandise Mart and several profession- al conventions held in Chicago. Martin Kilpatrick, chairman of the chemistry depart- ment, was guest ol honor at the ACS tea held in Novem- ber. Refreshments were served in chemical apparatus. Other activities ol the local chapter included another informal tea and Field trips to the Pure Foods Laboratory and the Quartermaster Corps. The society does its best to prepare students for their chosen profession. ROW 1: I. Busiaclc, L. Czyzewslci. ROW 2: M. Hewitt, L. Kozlowski. ACS W 1: D. Miltman A Powell V Shaw M l-lc-will L K ' i .

Huntly for the past seven years and the curriculum reflects the extensive experience he and members oi the iaculty have had, both in industry and in education. Although struc .iral engineering is the dominant field For civil engineers in the Chicago area, the curriculum is broad in scope, providing training in the many phases of design and research. This is made possible through the many laboratories on campus and through Field trips to various projects under construction. ' The department maintains a summer camp on Upper Trout Lake, Wisconsin to give the undergraduate field training in surveying. ln recent years it has been under the guidance of Professor ,lohn C. Penn and has become a model For similar camps conducted by other colleges and universities. The six-week period that each student spends at the camp is one oi the highlights of his under- graduate days, for the beautiful lake and its surroundings make field work and study almost a pleasure.

E. Honorary was founded at the University of lllinois. It was not until the installation ol the Armour Chapter at the Armour lnstitute of Technology in March, 1923 that it became a national Fraternity. The First conclave held at Armour resulted in many changes in the constitution and general government which have since been the' foundation For further expansion. g As stated in the preamble of its constitutionzufhfi Epsilon seelcs to place a marlc of distinction upon the undergraduateywho has upheld the honor of the Civil Engin- eering department by scholastic ability. Although this is its primary function and prereqiuisite for admission, selection is based upon character, practicability and sociability as well, since these are requirements of a sucessful engineer. The organization also seelcs to honor those members of the Civil Engineering profession who are no longer students by initiating honorary members. The lllinois Tech Chapter annually malces an award to the outstanding sophomore Civil Engineer- ing student. ROQLJV lf SOUGH P- l'llfI1lly, R. Stevens, R.AFehuman, l'l. Hgxsikins, VI.

Experience in preparing, present- ing, and discussing papers, comparing impressions of engineering problems, making appraisals of men from their writings and forming judgments as to the practical aspects of projects thus described contribute to mental development, while the business of conducting chapter activities, holding office,securing outside spealcers, visiting worlcs under construction, malcing reports to the national society and reading publications of the societylafford these initial contacts with the profession that should be carried on simultaneously with studies in the classroom. The student chapter of ASCE was established at Illinois Tech in March of 1939. Although it is one of the newest student professional organizations on campus it has become well established and its membership this year has increased to cover almost half of the entire C.E. undergraduates.

Along with this purpose is the attempt to create, Foster and maintain a spirit of loyalty, Fellowship, and cooperation among those srudents who actively ally themselves with aviation and to promote the progress of aviation. ln the early part of 1934 Tau Omega undertook a national expansion and as a result new chapters were organized. ln April 1943 the lllinois Delta Chapter was installed at lllinois Tech by two representatives from the national olifice. The charter group consisted of eleven students and three faculty members. Active membership is limited to junior and senior students who have shown their interest in aviation and possess high ideals as well as outstanding scholastic abilities. Although most ol the members at lllinois Tech Follow the aeronautical option it is not necessarily a pre- requisite. The Delta Chapter has been organized this semester and plans for a very active year. Pagn' PU!-v lfnnr ROW 1: E. Virtue, A. Ku st, P. l-l tl ,N. E l' F. P kijl ROW Q: R.

With the formation of this group on campus, student members were given the opportunity of becoming ac- quainted with the personnel and activities of the lAeS, thus fostering professional consciousness and Fellowship. Student membership is limited to Juniors and Seniors. Meetings at illinois Tech include discussions on aero- nautical issues, the reading of related literature, movies pertaining to various aeronautical Fields, and outside spealcers. With the number of aero option students reaching a new high this year, extensive plans have been made by the organization including an aeronautical exhibit and demonstration during junior Week Open House.

The department has three distinct divi- sions---Applied Mechanics Research, Fundamental Me- chanics Research, and the School of Mechanics. These three divisions embrace a staff of about forty men and women including undergraduate instructors, research men and a clerical department to assist in integrating the departmental functions. The Department of Applied Mechanics Research con- sists of Dynamics fAutomatic Mechanisml Research, Fluid Mechanics'Research, Esperimental Mechanics Re- search, and Materials Engineering. Each section is con- cerned with a specific field of research in mechanics. By increasing its equipment and adding to its staff many engineers with specialized training, the efficiency and usefulness of the department has increased. The Department of Fundamental Mechanics Research was established in February, 1947, to provide facilities for basic research in the various phases of the field of mechanics. At present there are five major laboratories of divisions, each of which will undertalce fundamental research projects. These laboratories are equipped to handle problems in Experimental Stress Analysis, Funda- MECHANHCS Donnell V l. Screebel L E Grrntor, R. L. james, R. G. Fehrman, M. lvl, frocht. .-T men-tal Fluids Research, Fundamental Structural Research, and Soil Mechanics. The Fifth unit of this department is the recently established Editorial Ctfice of the Ap- plied Mechanics Reviewn, a periodical issued jointly by IIT, ASME, and ONR, which presents to engineers and scientists a critical evaluation of the world's liter- ature in the Field of mechanics. It is contemplated that some of the laboratory facilities will be available to the School of Mechanics for the teaching of certain courses. The School of Mechanics has two primary Functions: in the undergraduate curriculum it acts as a service to the Engineering Departments which offer Bachelor's de- grees, while in the graduate Field it offers courses leading to the degree of Master of Science and Doctor of Phil- osophy in Mechanics. ln addition to the regular under- graduate courses such as Statics, Dynamics, Strength of Materials, and Fluid Mechanics, senior elective courses are offered which prepare the student for graduate work in the field of Mechanics. These include Advanced Strength of Materials, Theory of Elasticity, Advanced Dynamics, Experimental Stress Analysis, and Soil Mechanics. The graduate school curriculum is being completely reorganized on the basis of Five groups of advanced mechanics courses, each representing a somewhat inte- grated series available to students specializing in Mechanics. These groupings are CTD Dynamics Series, CQD Stress Analysis Series, C33 Fluid Mechanics and Aero- dynamics Series, C45 Mechanical Properties of Materials and Experimental Mechanics Series, CSD Soil Mechanics series. It is apparent that this revision of the Mechanics curriculum will require semesters to achieve, but it is anticipated that within the coming year considerable improvement will be possible over the present curriculum now listed in the catalog. The Facilities For graduate thesis research are being expanded as rapidly as possible. Laboratories are maintained for experimental worlc in Soil Mechanics, and in conjunction with the Fundamental Mechanics Research Department, experimental facilities are avail- able in Dynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and in several phases of Experimental Stress Analysis, including photo- elasticity, brittle lacquers, electrical and mechanical strain gages, and brittle materials.

The Department offers three undergraduate curricula: the regular curriculum, the management option, and the research and development option. ln lceeping with its curricula the department provides its students with unsurpassed laboratory facilities. ln the last tour years, at a cost ot more than S150,000, the department has built three new laboratories-tor circuits, For electrical machinery, and for electronics and radio. The labs have been equipped with almost entirely new and modern equipment. ln addition, senior and graduate students do laboratory worlc in the new S100,000 Net- worlt Calculator Laboratory of the Armour Research Foundation and have at their disposal the facilities of the 550,000 Ohmite Laboratory. It is believed that the.iDepartment of Electrical Engi- neering ol IIT is equipped to offer the serious student an engineering education of a very high order inlceeping with the lnstitute's objectives of serving both youth and industry with equal devotion.

Eta Kappa Nu was founded in order that those men in the profession of electrical engineering, who by their attainments in the college or in the practice, have mani- fested a deep interest and marlced ability in their chosen life work, may be brought into closer union whereby mutual benefit may be derived. The fraternity was organized in 1904 by ten of the electrical engineering students at the University of Illinois. These students realized that a closer association of professional men and students was necessary for a well developed undergraduate career. On May 24, 1909, Delta Chapter of Armour lnstitute of Technology was chartered by the rapidly growing national fraternity and became the fourth chapter of Eta Kappa Nu. Since then the fraternity has expanded to thirty-six collegiate chapters and eleven alumni groups. Outstanding scholastic achievements and other quali- ties which indicate that the student will be a success in his profession are the membership requirements. KAPTDA U ROW 1: L. Fisher, S. Lascoe, D.

Soon after the advent of ametaur radio activity, Armour lnstitute of Technology operated a station using the call sign 9NV. ln 1933 the present call letters, W9YW, were assigned to the station. The Epsilon Chapter ol Rho Epsilon was installed in 1938 with assigned quarters in Chapin l'lall. Since the war Rho Epsilon has become very active. A 500-watt radiotelephone-telegraph transmitter is main- tained for use on the ten and twenty meter bands. All licensed members are urged to use the station Facilities. A well equipped worlc bench is available for experi- mentation and construction. Frequency modulation broadcasts are piped to the cafeteria from the lraternity's quarters. The organization serves two major purposes. It pro- vides a medium For men of common interest to gather and discuss their ideas and problems, and it also provides an opportunity for men to develop and build equip- ment-thusiproviding practical experience in the Field.

Really a sparlcplug among campus organizations is the student chapter of the American institute of Electrical Engineers. Second largest school group and believed to be the largest chapter in the country, AIEE leads the professional societies in activities and member interest. With the co-sponsoring of an assembly for which all EE classes were excused, AIEE opened the fall semester by securing over 200 members. At the assembly Dr. Edwin C. Whitehead, director of the Electrical Engi- neering Department, spoke on the value of participation in one's professional society. During the semester members were able to hear: W. C. Janes, former chairman of the Chicago section of the AIEE, D. S. Schover of the Armour Research Foundation, who demonstrated and talked upon the ARF's famed magnetostriction torquemeter, and R. Donaldson, of the Commonwealth testing laboratories, who spoke on the functions of electronics in the power field. OF special note was the serving of huge quantities of refreshments to all members attending the meetings. This innovation was accomplished even though the chapter's dues are among the lowest on the campus. A. I. E. E. g.a.Cig:1sen,-,lT.X5i::1eE,LITgIner,f0t. Roberts, T. Marchwiclc, R. Aim, H.

' o The lllinois lnstitute of Technology branch of the IRE, a war-born addition to the school's list ol profess- ional organizations, is guided by the ideals set Forth in the constitution: the advancement ol the theory and practice of radio, and allied arts and sciences, their application to human needs, and the maintenance of a high professional standing among its members. To accomplish this end the procurement of professional speakers, the presentation of various technical movies, andthe use of industrial plant and radio station tours all are utilized in enhancing the liberal education of the members of the organization. , - , ., , 1. .-., He..-.r .,Qy,f...L.s.a,:...f,.e- P' E rx. f. The active participation of the chapter in the annual meeting of the lndustrial Electronic Conference at the Edgewater Beach Hotel has brought rich rewards to many of the students through professional contacts, tech- nical explanation of the beginning and advanced phases ol the communication Field, and through ex- hibits themselves. So that better bonds ol student Friendship may exist among those intending to worlc in this Field, an active social program is being formulated lor the spring semes- ter.

The most energetic backers of this club were Frank Ksiazek and Dave Pevan. ' No activities were undertaken during the spring term, but a panel of officers was elected. They began work on the organization ol the club including the writing of the new constitution. With the opening of the Fall term the new constitution was approved. Membership cards were printed and distributed, and permanent quarters in Chapin Hall were obtained. Work on several projects was undertaken immediately. One ofthe most important of these projects was the code class designed to prepare novice members lor the code test on the ham examinations. Radio theory classes were conducted to prepare the non-hams for the license examinations. For members who had progressed beyond the ham stage, a transmitter was secured for advanced work. A number ol workers were preparing the equipment for intensive use during the spring semester. A hard working group and panel of active officers insured the Radio Club in this, its first reactivated year, a sure Foundation for groups to Follow. ROW 1 R Ricker, G. Sensibar, W. Elias, C.

Professor john Ahern The Fire Protection Engineering Department has been a unique feature of ll-l since its formation in 1903. Organized with the aid of fire insurance companies, the FPE department has educated its students in both the engineering and business aspects of fire protection. The aim of the department is to provide a broad engi- neering background for men in fire protection and safety work, according to Prof. John Ahern, department head. The program stresses chemistry, structures, and hydraulics in addition to its own engineering problems. ln the study of fires and their control, the Fire Protection Engineering Department has had the invaluable aid of the Underwriters Laboratories, whose equipment cannot be duplicated anywhere. This has been a major factor in making the FPE department at illinois lnstitute of Tech- nology the only one of its kind in the country. The department is now embarking on a long range program of expansion, in co-ordination with the Chicago Fire Department. This program involves the construction of a modern building which will house a completely modern drill school and fire station in addition to the FPE department's fire and safety research laboratories and classrooms. .

Page Eighty Seven The Late Prof. joseph B. Finnegan As Salamander, the honorary fire protection engineer- ing fraternity, completed its first quarter century of ex- istence it mourned the passing of its guiding hand, Professor Joseph B. Finnegan. Professor Finnegan, a Graduate of M.l.T., came to Armour institute of Technology in 1905. Throughout his forty-two years on the campus he was an able teacher and respected counselor to those in his department. Although Professor Finnegan was the head of the Fire Protection Engineering Department and editor of the illinois Tech Engineer he always found time to become acquainted with each student of his department. ln 1923 with the aid of six Armour students he founded Salamander, the nation's only honorary fraternity in the field of fire protection engineering. Since its birth Salamander has grown to be a unifying bond between its members both on campus and among the alumni. Members of Salamander must excel in both scholarship and campus leadership. The Deflector, Salamander's yearly publication, is usually contributed to by a high percentage of its 145 alumni members and in several cities Salamander meetings are held regularly.

It opened its school social season with the presentation of sleight of hand exhibition by Smolcey Rogers and his talented and entertaining troupe. Other activities included a smolcer, a stag party, and a spring picnic-all annual events. The society also promoteda freshman IM football squad which did quite well in a tough Field of competition. The society also promoted several IM baslcetball teams. The officers of the FPES are elected annually. This year has seen Gene Dymelc as president, Roland Weber as vice-president, Ralph Sullivan as secretary, and Dave Felsenthal as treasurer. The Fire Protection Engineering Society ol lllinois Tech is among the oldest societies on the campus having been founded on November 11, 1913. The dual objectives of the club are C15 to promote an active interest in all phases of the Fire Protection field by having various authorities in the field spealcing at the society-'s bi-monthly meetings, and CQD creating the opportunity for social contact between the members ol all of the classes in Fire Protection Engineering.

Dutton The Department of lndustrial Engineering is under the administrative supervision of Dr. Pearce Davis, chairman of the Department of Business and Economics, former chairman of the New England Wage Stabilization Board of Boston and former chairman of the National Telephone Commission. Dr. Davis' position was held by Professor H. P. Dutton, widely lcnown consultant and author, until the Spring '48 term. Established just before the War the enrollment in the Department has increased rapidly, reflecting the in- creasing demand From industry for men trained in the Fields of production and management. The industrial Engineering curriculum Follows the pattern of the other engineering curricula closely for the First two years of the student's career. The last two years includes, in addition to general survey courses in such subjects as mechanics and thermodynamics, worlc in pro- duction, quality and material control, accounting, cost analysis and finance, industrial relations, and organiza- tion principles. i ACULTY Prrgr' Niunly Two A.

The mechanical engineering program serves the com- munity in two ways, it instructs new students to be useful members of the community, and it conducts research to better the standard of living in this and other communities. Besides studies in the general field of mechanical engi- neering, the curricula offers optional programs in aero- i r 1 l LY Professor John T. Rettaliata nautical engineering, research and development, and management. Complete graduate courses are now being offered in such specialized fields as gas turbines, steam power plants, diesel engineering, vibration problems, advanced machine design, and others. A cooperative program for students wishing practical training in their work in conjunction with their formal studies has been offered for several years. This unique system also eases the financial burden on the co-op student. A quarter million dollars worth of research is also con- ducted by the department. The amount of research being done is increasing steadily and extensive worlc is pro- gressing on subjects such as heat transfer and steam power cycles. Now, with its student body and .research on the upswing, the future loolcs bright for the largest curriculum in the school-Mechanical Engineering. FACULTY ROW 1: C.

' Pi Tau Sigma, the honorary mechanical engineering fraternity, was organized jointly at the University of lllinois and the University of Wisconsin in 1915 For the purpose of cementing bonds of friendship and understanding among aspiring mechan- ical engineers of high calibre, scholastic ability, and outstanding personality and leadership. The Armour chapter, known as the Delta chapter, was granted its charter in 1924, being the fifth member in a nationwide organization that today boasts thirty-three chapters. This year evidenced the largest group of pledges in the history of the Delta chapter. The group, numbering twenty-two and including Dr. Ralph Owens, was iniated in a formal ceremony in the Chicago Room of the LaSalle Hotel. ltems and articles of mutual interest to mechanical engineers are presented in the organization's official publication, the magazine Condenser , which is circulated to all Pi Tau Sigma members.

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers was originally founded in the year 1910. The lllinois lnsti- tute of Technology branch of the ASME was formed in the fall of 1940 upon the merger of the Armour and Lewis institutes. Although one of the youngest branches in the country, the lllinois Tech chapter is rapidly be- coming one of the largest. It is now the largest student organization on the campus. The ASME offers the mechanical engineering student an opportunity for fellowship with other mechanical engineering students, with the faculty of the mechanical engineering department, and with men who are ex- perienced in the problems of the profession. The student branch at lllinois Tech was organized for the purpose of fostering the professional development of the mechanical engineering student and to bring him into closer association with the national organization of the ASME. They maintain their contacts with the professional world through various conferences and national publications. Last spring, for instance, the annual student convention was held for all student chapters at Prudue. ROW 1: Professor Rusinoff, Faculty Advisor, I. C. Hamilton, President. ROW 2: R.

'kirir The Society of Automotive Engineers is an organization which is lor those mechan- ical engineers of lllinois Tech who are especially interested in the automotive in- dustry. -lo further this interest, the group brings to its meetings speakers from the auto- motive industry and has discussions and movies about this field. The organization also sponsors tours through various plants which are of interest to its members. Une field trip which they took last term was through the Armour Research Foundation. , Membership in the SAE is open to all mechanical and mechanical engineering students. And, as their membership grows, they are planning more of these interest- ing field trips which, in addition to their regular meetings would give them a Full and eventful year on the campus. S. A. E Page One Hundred Twenty Three X x N' x x wg F' X N - yi XXX XX - : QR , A Professor Otto Zmeskal Metallurgy is the newest engineering department at lllinois Tech. The metal industries, patricularly steel, had long voiced the need for a school to train metal- lurgical engineers in the Chicago area. The staff started in September of 1946, gathering many recruits from industry. Dr. O. Zmeslqal, director of the department, was Dircetor of Research of the Universal-Cyclops Steel Corporation before coming to the lnstitute. He is also the author of Radiographic lnspections of Metals. Each member of the staff has made several contributions to the technical literature in his specialty. Last fall, just prior to moving into their new building, the curriculum was expanded to include day and evening courses, with undergraduate and graduate worlc. ln addition to the training given in the application of the sciences of mathematics, physics, and chemistry to metals, these metallurgists may specialize in foundry practice, mill fabrication, heat or mechanical treatment, metal- lography, surface finishing, welding, power metallurgy, and inspection.

Professor Thompson acted in the official capacity of president of the Chicago Physics Club in 1943. Concerned with the study ol energy and matter, physics embraces the complex subjects oi heat, light, sound, electricity, mechanics, and atomic structure. The Physics Department at l.l.-l.. has a well-rounded curiculum For a period oi Four years. ln addition, courses are available to enable the graduate student to secure his Master's and Doctor's degree. However, most engineering stu- dents are acquainted with the General Physics course taught by the department as a second year subject. This course includes a laboratory as well as a lecture and lasts For two semesters thereby giving the student a general knowledge of the field oi physics. The ground- work for Future advanced courses is thereby planned. ln the fields oi research, three main projects are being conducted at l.l.-li.: spectroscopy, neuclear physics, and electronics. To aid the students and faculty in their research, some specialized equipment has been ac- quired. FACULTY FRONT ROW: P. L. Copeland, F. E, Clevelgnd, STANDING: F- L. Yost, A. G. Meister, M. A.

V Q ml rn M711 plelvslcs aus The physics club was conceived at the beginning of the school year by a number of students who had a common interest in physics. Although it is one of the newest clubs on the campus, the club has been steadily developing into a unit which can favorably compare with the other clubs on the campus that have had a longer experience as an organization. Membership is not restricted to physics majors and any student is welcome to join the club. The only requirement is a common interest in physics and its Functions. The purpose of the club is to increase the individual's knowledge of the theories and the methods in the broad field of physics. Single and group experiments are per- formed at meetings and expert research men have been invited to speak to the group during the school year. Meetings have also been highlighted with movies per- taining to specific developments encompassing the sphere of physics. A number of field trips were planned to places of interest in the Chicago area which enabled the members to learn the practical applications as well as the theoretical phase of physics ROW 1: R.

W ln all branches of engineering science there are certain men who have so distinguished themselves by their accomplishments that they stand apart From their associates as men to be respected and ad- mired. Upon closer examination it is noted that the majority ol these men proudly display the lcey of Tau Beta Pi which they had merited during their undergraduate career or by their outstanding records as alumni. The consideration of a man for membership in Tau Beta Pi involves the investigation of his leader- ship ability, integrity, activities, and interests in fields other than engineering.

Tau Beta Pi does not restrict its membership to any one sphere on engineering. The group chooses as its members those who excel in any ofthe varied fields of engineering and in so doing has become the leading honorary fraternity on the campus. The illinois Beta Chapter of Tau' Beta Pi was established at Armour in 1906 and was the four- teenth chapter to be chartered. The parent organiza- tion was founded at Lehigh University in 1885 PLEDGES and has grown until there are now seventy-seven chapters with installations at all the leading engin- eering colleges in the country. Because of the policy governing its choice of members Tau Beta Pi has held firmly to its purpose which as stated in the constitution is: To marlc in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplory character as undergraduates in engineer- ing, and to foster a spirit of culture in the engineer- ing colleges ol America. i I I ROW 1: L.

It is to provide an organization where matters of business and finance, current events, commerce, labor, politics, and other phases of our economic life may be discussed and explored by the students. The student otficers work with the Business and Economics Department and the club to obtain lecturers, arrange debates and field trips which are related to the field. This is to aid the student in correlating his classroom worla with actual economic events and people. With the experience and training which the club provides, the graduating student will have made a confident step toward meeting the world in his chosen field. R. Mullen, M. Searle, L.

At present there are Q1 Seniors, 4 Juniors, 40 Sophomores and 522 Freshmen enrolled. Most oi the Juniors and Seniors are iormerV-12 men or veterans of World War ll. Many of the Freshmen and Sophomores are post war enlistees, although a small percentage are veterans. Students enrolled in the l.l.T. NRO-l'C unit are on an active duty basis, full complement will be 221 men. A student applying for NRO-l'C training, lists his choice of the colleges he wishes to attend. After passing nation- wide competitive examinations, he is rated with all other students taking the examinations. The highest rated students receive appointment to the college oi their choice, the complement of the units is Filled by selection from the nationwide list. The cadet may select any branch of engineering and takes the same courses as civilian students with the addition of the Naval Science COUTSGS. Most students live in Fraternity houses or in the Grad- uate house although choice of quarters is up to the men. STAFF ROW 11 T'S9t' F- Fffllle, USMC: Maj. F. Cortner, USMC, Cmdr. R. Little, USN, Lt.

With Dr. P. S. Schurrager as chairman of the Depart- ment oi Psychology and Education at the illinois institute of Technology the department has expanded and facilities are being assembled tor the advanced training of students. The curriculum has been revised and brought up to date and the aim has been to cultivate the experi- mental approach to general and applied psychology. The Psychological Museum, under the direction oi Dr. Boder, contains valuable equipment of both historical and current importance. It is recognized by the American Psychological Association and is described in the Encyclopedia Brittanica. Dr. W. Kerr joined the department in the fall of 1947 as an associate professor. l'le received his doctors degree from Purdue University where he was a research Fellow. A joint project of the illinois institute of Technology and the Psychological Museum made it possible for Dr. Boder to go to Europe during the summer OF1946 to malce an extensive case study of displaced persons.

Stagg of Chicago University, has greatly advanced midwestern traclc and the position of Illinois Tech in sports. The relays have grown from the triangular meet between Chi- cago, Northwestern and IIT in 1928 to the largest indoor col- legiate meet in the nation in 1943. The meet won that rating again this year. The sixteenth in the' series ol relays was held at the University ol Chicago Fieldhouse on March 15, 1947. Eight hours of events, in which nine hundred entrants from sixty-two colleges and universities participated, saw twenty-five as- sorted records tied or brolcen, in- cluding four American indoor records. 4 The events were held in two divisions, university and college. Competition and Iong standing rivalry between teams Icept par- ticipants and spectators at a feverish pitch. ' Taylor of Western Michigan topping the timbers in the 70 yard high hurdles.

Coach Bernard Sunny Weissman was worried about the lack of practice as the lllinios Tech Nine went into the opening g.ame. With the three hit pitching of Frosh right hander Bert Amstadter, the Tech Nine showed Sonny's fears were groundless to the tune of a 12 to 2 win over George Williams. Co-captain Roy Schimmelpfenig's blistering triple to the left center in the opening Frame was a big help to the Techmen. His other hglf, Warren Melgaard, ran out a beautiful first base line bunt in the Five run third inning which really sewed up the game.

Vince Bicicchi, catching, threw out three men attempting to steal second, and had two putouts ol his own. Despite two outstanding performances by Pete Peterson and Bert Amstadter, the Tech Nine failed to come through in the next two games.

The games run the gamut of sports, softball, track, swimming, fencing, table tennis, touch football, basketball, and volleyball are all disputed territories for intramurals. ln April and May the softball tournament was Fought out by Fourteen teams representing various classes and departments. The Senior Mechs won the tourney, with the Soph Mechs and the Hotshots trailing. , ' The last week in May, students sharpened up for the finals in the IM fencing tourney. A large group turned out for the event. Fenced in three divisions: foil, saber, and epee, the tourney was a great success.. A' Fall brought out a rejuvinated IM program. With the addition of coach Ed Glancy to the staff, and the new gym, Techmen had an added chance to develop muscles along with the brain strain. The touch football tournament was the big feature.Separated into two leagues, National and American, sixteen teams battled lor the titles. The Senior Mechs took the AL pennant unbeaten, with the Chem Eng Grads and Frosh FPE's trailing. The Junior Gremlins won the NL pennant, with the Soph Archs and Senior Juicers right behind. November 20, the Senior Mechs met the Junior Gremlins on Ogden field and handed them a decisive 20-0 trimming for the IM football championship. The same night, 34 techmen took to the water For the IM swimming meet, eight events were held, and promising swimming talent was shown. Winter brought in the hard fought basketball tourney, and twenty-four teams went out on the courts to bring glory to their classes. Other techmen practiced For the bowling, track and table tennis tournaments to be held later this season.

Shoulder to shoulder matches with nearby colleges and Postal Card Meets were scheduled with other schools. John Butlcus, the Faculty sponsor, has great hopes that the team will do well.

Unfortunately, little practice was held before the season opened. ln the First meet with the University of illinois CNavy Pierj, Paul Schermeister trounced his op- ponent with a painful lcey-loclc pin against a former all-city champion.

The creed of Honor l, the school athletic honorary, has been to promote student participation in lllinois Tech athletics, and to provide For the general welfare of IIT X athletes. Since its founding in 1911 For the purpose ol giving recognition to athletes who have devoted their time un- selfishly to Tech athletic teams, Honor l has initiated over 300 men. Only Juniors and Seniors who have won a major letter are eligible for membership, though not all letter winners are elected. Honor l gives IIT athletes higher ideals to strive for, over and above merely winning an award for athletic proficiency. HGNCDR I C B t m R. Ailara, W. Sommers, B. Weissman, W. McDonough, H.

'lts four officers are elected for one year terms by the entire student body, while the other five student members are the presidents of their respective classes. ln addition to these nine students there are six faculty members. The illinois Tech Student Association not only includes every student, but directly affects every student, no matter how much interest that student takes in the affairs of his association. Not only is the ITSA the largest and most important organization at IIT, but it has the third distinction of having a completely paid up membership, for its finances are provided by the Student Activity Fee included in the tuition. - These funds are in turn disbursed to ITSA activities, which include integral, Technology News, Technette, junior Weele, Dramatech, Kiva, and Chess Club. ITSA also provides the original funds for the class treasuries, out of which all class social functions are financed. These functions are also subject to ITSA approval. ' Most student projects for student benefit are handled by ITSA. This year installation of loud spealcers in the South Union Building, the auction of lost and found materials, and creation of the student co- ordinating council were such projects. When student interests are involved in administration functions the ITSA may investigate these functions. This has included investigation of the cafeteria service, health insurance, and the Faculty Disciplinary Committee. Most of lTSA's business is handled by the Board of Control but several standing committees handle specific functions. These committees include the Publications Committee, Social Committee, SUBC, and Finance Committee. The ITSA also has the very important function of acting as a liason between the faculty and ad- ministration andthe student body. I. T. S. A. Left to right: R. Vanzelst, P.

The actual planning of this book oi words and PiX began a'way baclc in june, 1947 and maybe even sooner than that. Anyway, several budding William Randolph Hearsts got their heads together and planned the theme. What finally resulted was the idea to show the relation between art and industry at Illinois Tech and that of the City of Chicago. With the rapid expansion of the campus Facilities Ceven to having our VERY own trees, im- ported just for usb Technology Center has gained a more important place in the Fields oi education and industry. We are training more men and women For more positions and the greater portion oi these people will go into Chicago business. The business needs the people we train and the graduates can find their spot in metropolitan industry. This theme relation is to the departmental division oi the boolc. The sports and the student activities are separate sections depicting school life in the garden spot oi Chicago's south side. Having but three main divisions in the bool: simplified the malce-up and also maltes it easier to find your picture. Cll you still thinlc its complicated, there's an index, you dopelb The use of color in the boolc is something a little different than previous years. More color is used and in different ways. The superb art worlt that is done on the title page and the introductions to the sections, is another innovation and was produced by one Wally Pruter. We have tried to minimize the written material, and give as much in a pictorial way as possible. The INTEGRAL lor 1948 contains as much of lllinois Tech life as we could inject into these iew pages. For the seniors, it will be THEIR boolf, to loolc baclc on and recall the time spent at Heald's Hostel. For the underclassmen, it will be a record also, but not of the lost year. It is, For them, part of the filler between high school graduation and college commencement. They will have their Own lNTEGRAL to worlc over and worry about. We hope that this INTEGRAL will mean some- thing to every one at Technology center. lt ig YOUR boolt.

Since publica- tions worlc is specialized, the I.T.S.A. found it diliiicult to understand and cope with the specific problems which arose, so to provide a board oi experts to handle these matters the l.T.S.A. created the Publications Board as a standing committee. It is the duty of the Board to handle all matters pertaining to policy, publication and budgeting of the publications. The Board is composed of Dean White, Mr. James Armsey, director of public relations, Mr. Gilbert Force, business manager ioriech, and the editors and business managers of the publications. in addition to these members thereis also an I.T.S.A. representative appointed by the I.T.S.A. Board. The Publications Board has proved to be one of the most vital groups at Tech, and will become one of the permanent organizations. PUBHC!-WlUlNlS BOARD B RICKER G FORCE w.

Typically, one of the greatest debates revolving around Technology News is whether it was born in the back room or at the bar ofa local pub. Now within a year of becoming of age, Tech- nology News maintains much of the vibrancy, spontaneity, inconsistencies and mistakes of its youth. Although it is somewhat painfully conscious of its social position, it still provides an outlet for the literary spasms of embryo engineers in addition to serving as an often-foggy mirror of campus life. Tech News launched life as the Armour News in 1928. It proceeded through infancy and childhood ,, :-A-f ---1- lr-vi - 'Y' 3 ' as a slick-paper chronicle but gave way to the current news-print edition during the war. It was during adolescence that it reached its most pre- cocious stage-when the editors put out the paper and then held their breaths to see if its second-class mailing privileges would be revoked. Nevertheless Technology News flourished under such manage- ment to earn the first of several All-American honors, the highest ratings conferred by the National Student Press Association. A weekly tabloid, Tech News is published every Wednesday after more than a week of preparation. lnitial plans are laid ata meeting nine days before distribution when advertising allotments are made and possible news and feature stories outlined.

The most feverish activity occurs on Friday night, the deadline for both news and sports copy. Stories are turned in, rewritten if necessary, copyread and provided with a headline. Each is then coordinated with the various page layouts and assigned a posi- tion. The entire paper is tucked into bed late Friday night or early Saturday morning, frequently the latter. Proofs are read and corrections are made on Tuesday, the day before publication. Guiding force behind Technology News is the Managing Board, consisting of an editor-in-chief, a managing editor, a feature editor, a sports editor, a news editor and a business manager. The positions of editor and business manager are open to any student in the institute. Applications are turned in to the Publications board, a council made up of three administration officers and six students, which reviews the qualifications of the applicants and picks the student best fitted for the tasks. Both hold office for a full year. The editor picks his aids on the managing board. ln the past year Technology News has had two editors. Paul Thompson, appointed for the year, resigned at the end of the Fall term be- cause of the pressure of studies and outside com- mittments. He was succeeded by Sherwood Benson. But the bulwark of Technology News, like any newspaper, is the army of reporters, feature writers, copyreaders, cartoonists and photographers. The news staff has been bolstered by such veteran reporters as George O'Brien, Jim Gaffney, Andy Arentz and Saul Needleman. Aiding Ben Sutton on the sports staff have been jim Wangersheim, conductor of Pigskin Prophets, Larry Shapiro, Cliff Nelsen and Ed Jennings. The feature staff weekly grinds out such columns as the Slipstick by AI Winsberg, Collegiate World by Don Goldsmith, Man of the Week, Letters to the Editor, and information for Free by, Wild Willie Furlong.

L7 ,fr Pi Delta Epsilon was organized at Syracuse University December 6, 1909 as a society For student workers on the undergraduate collegiate publications. It is the oldest national honorary collegiate journalism fraternity in the country. Pi Delta Epsilon seeks to work with the under- graduate, not essentially the professional journalist,in bettering the campus publications. lts chapters are maintained at colleges where there are no major courses or departments of journalism. The illinois Tech chapter was established in 1943, and since its founding the group has been very active. journalism classes for beginning publications reporters were established by the chapter members. Excellence in publications writing is promoted through the annual Pi Delta Epsilon award For Outstanding Achievement in Collegiate journalism. Winners of the 1946 award were George O'Brien, news, William Furlong, feature, and Ben Sutton, sports. A first hand view of one of the countries largest printing concerns was available through the tour of R. R. Donnelly's Lalceside Press during the fall term. The trip was sponsored by Pi Delt and was one of their semesteris activities. Row 1: S. Benson, H. Baum. l 1 1 Row 2: P. Thompson, L. Templeton, H. Sachs. Pl DEl,1iA El31Sll.QiNl dirt og . ' h W.

Gordon Ericlcson is both Man-Behind-the-Scenes and Conductor For the musical clubs. Hailing from Chicago University, he composed Wave the Flag for Old Chicago , and, later on at Armour, gave them both a fight song and an Alma Mater. When lllinois Tech was formed by merger in 1940, 'its first year saw him give it a fight song which is in use today-the familiar Hail Here We Come! Also well lcnown among glee club members is his romantic Moonlight and Serenade , an encore-length chorus often played by request in years past after a concert had been completed. Well liked by all the organizations, Mr. Erickson has conducted the clubs at an average of four or five concerts a semester, in such places as radio studios, church audi- toriums, downtown stages, Rotary clubs, and out-of town colleges.

When it comes to diversions, lllinois Tech has its share of music lovers and performers among its scientists and engineers. An opportunity for ex- pression is given them in the musical clubs, which include a band, an orchestra, men's and women's glee clubs, and a dance band. The beginning of the semester found all the clubs zealously down to brass tacks preparing for their first concert on November 16. They capitalized on the hospitality andhearty applause which awaited them in the Westminster Community Church in the Beverly Hills district of Chicago, and on the follow- ing Friday a collection of busses and autos headed for a triple engagement in Milwaukee: concert and dinner at the Allis-Chalmers plant, combination song-fest, supper, and alumni reunion at the Pabst Brewery Rathskeller, and a concert and dance at Downer's girls' college. lnstrumental selections ranged from the modern Gremlin's Ball as a band number to the orchestra's rendition of Bizet's Agnus Dei . Choral numbers included lt's a Grand Night for Singing , a Fred Waring arrange- ment of Drink To Me Only with Thine Eyes , and -l'schesnikov's Salvation Belongeth to our God , which featured a low B from a few able bassos. The first semester's season was concluded with the Christmas concert on December 18, in which all the clubs, combined with a newly formed chorus of IIT White Collar Girls, performed on the campus to a capacity audience with numbers in- 1, l 'i J . 1 J H ...- - . -- -4 ----- H -- -- - - - - cluding Jesu Bambino , White Christmas , and Dickinson's Ushepers' Story . Frank M. Hrachow- sky, tenor soloist as well as drawing professor, was featured in Schubert's Omnipotence , assisted by glee club and orchestra. The second semester's highlight was the downtown concert at the Civic Opera Theater, Sunday evening April 4. Tux coats, black bow ties and white flannels marked the club's appearance in their performance of similarly light-to-classical selections. A trip was also taken, later on, when lllinois lech's talent was displayed in Peoria and Spring- field lllinois. The spring season's home concert took place during Junior week, combined with the lnterfraternity singing contest. Plans were made toward increased efforts in recruiting all the available student talent on the campus. A special effort was directed toward the band, which this year took its share of hearty applause by the performance of some thirty-odd members, with the intention of building it up to a hundred-member organization representative of a school as large as Illinois Tech. The band's ac- ceptance to an invitation to play at the All School A.W.O.L. on December 9 last semester was the first step in the direction of band per- formance at all home sports functions, which was an expressed wish among IIT sports fans and music lovers alike, this year.

Specifically it brands itself as an honorary musical Fraternity serving educational institutions' which do not offer music as a major course of instruction. Having acquired its charter of incorporation in june 1947, it became a national Fraternity with two chapters: the Alpha chapter at illinois Tech, and the Beta chapter at Drexel institute of Technology in Philadelphia. A program of expansion is implied in the providion that makes the ol'Ficers of the Alpha chapter the national officers until five chapters will have been formed . its distinctive requirement for membership is the completion of four semesters of service in the musical clubs. Pi Nu Epsilon was originally Formed in 1927 for the purpose oi honoring outstanding members ofthe Musical clubs, and promoting the interest of musical activities at the institute. its pledges can be identified, in season, by the six-Foot treble clefs which they carry around the campus. its members wear the lcey which is characterized by the musical natural sign in its center. l .

The S.U.B.C. or Student Union Board of Control, was formed in December, 1939. The Board is composed of elected members from each ofthe classes in the school, and the Board is directed by Bernard Sonny Weissman. At the monthly meetings the policies of dispensation of the facilities of the two Student Unions is decided upon. The members draw up rules of conduct, decide procedure by which student and faculty organizations may reserve a room or lounge lor meetings or a party, and in general, talce care of the buildings and the affairs concerning them. n Each year the work of the S.U.B.C. becomes more important.

BALL Slcyroclceting the school year into social brilliance, the INTEGRAL BALL, the largest formal school dance, is held at the beginning of the Fall semester. The IN- TEGRAL BALL is sponsored by the mid-year graduating class and derives its name from the established custom oi choosing the INTEGRAL QUEEN to reign at the ball and to be Queen of the school yearboolc. Queen candidates are chosen from among the students and their guests at the ball. A group of judges chooses the Queen and her court, and they are ceremoniously crowned. The crown For the INTEGRAL QUEEN is of silver and rhinestone. The crown and the leather boolc to contain the queen pictures were purchased for this ball, and will be lcept at the school as trophies to be awarded each year to the girl chosen to be lllinois 'l'ech's INTEGRAL QUEEN. l agr I wo lllmdz 11' 'l'wr'r1ty Kedrow Crowns a Queen I f f e ,r' I , A R ' ' ' ffl x 4 x l -,. ?R- xx X Xxbx e XX k ,f-ix, , f ,fz-f'XJ' 4 ,f,- f 1' YF Y , H FWHM? mg MISS COLETTE RYAN TIME M ,IJ R1 UUE! 1 5-Q ' 'i gponsmed by ff m -, TF fl fl Tw - ,, 4 ,f , I fx 1131 5 Q3 HV, ,gf james Kennedy 1 1 -JL 15 ' y 1 1 I 1 I f f Yi J fi ll 1 W Xfffif X--J' J 'XJ L, LJ ,197 gf' fx Page Two Hznzdred Twenty One '12-Q ,Z y M1-J 2?j -Q..-P I I I I I I I I ' .Il I. ,I I I I ' I ,,' I :rg ,I , II' sr, ,, ,, Iv, NIU I I ,I I: In I' I I r I Il I I .III :III I, ,I I i I Y i -I I , ' I Q III I ,II I II ' I I I II II I 'I I .I, I II: I :II I !,I I -I Q I 1 II ' ,I rlxx .Il I , ' I III In ' II I-, II?

By popular vote, the student body bestowed its highest honor upon him, and he reigned as the tradi- tional King of Junior Weelc. Always a school leader, Bob was elected president of the illinois Tech Student Association having also served as vice-president of the group. l'le is president of the senior class and holds positions on the Publications Board and integral staff, and was the co-editor ot the Technette. Due to his outstanding work in journalism, Bob was made a member of Pi Delta Epsilon. It may seem impossible, but Wheel Cunningham also found time aside from his studies in the department of Architecture to serve on the Student Admissions Advisory Board, the Assembly Committee, and to par- ticipate in intramural sports. Selection for Who's Who in American Universities and Colleges was inevitable for this personable young man, and he was also honored with membership in Black Knight. A truly remarkable lad, Bob's amazing vitality has carried him to the top and he justly deserves the crown of Man of the Year. T l 5 .1x.. H-. .

A member of Sigma Kappa sorority, she served as the chapter vice-president and was a member of the Pan- hellenic Council. As a sixth-termer, Pat added to her list of activities by serving as co-chairman of the 1947 junior Week Com- mittee and as secretary of the junior class. She came to lllinois Techies a scholarship winner and has maintained a B average. Her major is Home Economics and she is a member of the Home Economics Club.

Those were the days that are now called good and old, when the insurance rate on the pants of an Illinois Tech student was directly proportional to his sprinting ability. But they're fond memories now. . .the pants atop the flag pole . . . the bathtub at 33rd and Federal Streets filled with green paint . . . the kidnappings and mud battles . . . the freshmen bludgeoned to death with slide rules. Time and a swelling feminine population have made victims of these quaint customs. The violence of yesteryear has given 'way to the culture and refinement of the modern junior Week. A hypo is now given to sagging student morale with such uplifting spectacles as the Senior Burlesque, the baby contest and the turtle race. A symphony of cracking joints and screaming muscles launches the activities of the new junior Week. The seniors obtain some measure of revenge for four harrowing years by administering the determined but outclassed Faculty softball team its annual spanking. In hammering their towering drives to the pitchers' mound, the members of the Faculty subject their long-dormant muscles to un- told bending moments and torsional effects which leave the sinews in a state of permanent distortion. Adding to the numerous woes of the Faculty is the added frustration of being unable to accept the Page Two Hundred Thirty WIT KOSICKI Man of -the Year 1947 challenge of the White Collar girls. The latter face the winner of the Senior-Faculty game, who is, naturally, the Senior team. StrangeIy,.the White Collar girls seldom fail to wallop the seniors, albeit with an occasional boost from Umpire Bernie Weissman, who is not loathe to call a strike a ball and vice versa. Um-pire Weissman, who works occasionally as assistant athletic director, sees that the girls always bat first since the team that is in the field is inidanger of never coming to. bat. Babushka Row becomes the solidest feminine bloc on the campus for a brief hour during junior Week. For months the girls, secretaries and students alike, train intensely so that they may more easily shoulder their brawnier buddies out of the way in the scramble for front-row seats at the Senior Burlesque. Then they sit in rapt attention while the Lovely I.oreIeis of the Senior class unveil their sultry 180 pounds in a South State Street Revue that puts South State Street to shame. For 60 minutes the seniors spin their wares in a manner less graceful, but none-the less ardent, than their professional contemporaries and for 60 minutes Babushka Row is anchored tensely to its pews. Acting somewhat as an anti-climax to the Senior Burlesque are the Inter- fraternity Dramatic sketches in which the fra- ternities present grisly 15-minute portrayals of life at Illinois Tech. As in the lnterfraternity Sing, the fraternity with the outstanding performance is presented with an award. Perhaps the most serious squall which threatens to disturb the refined atmosphere of junior Week comes during the Baby Contest. Infants of all sizes ff' gil' ,iii ll' ni ibm qi 'Q l l i i l i 1 l I UI is UE if :Fi sin if QS! 1 ds gt ni 1 HF' Ji an Si -as is U V ji! it is V I l 1 I t 1 l i i .Ah and shapes, unhappy offspring of illinois Tech students, are assembled as an all-star cast selects the cutestQthat is the one that keeps its yap closed the most. Parents are dutifully returned their babies, or a reasonably accurate facsimile thereof, plus a jumbo-sized package of aspirin. To help add to the confusion, the Model Air- plane club gets together to litter Ogden field with the shattered remains of their U-uncontrol models. ln a remarkably short span the members of the club uncover the many ingenious methods they have devised for destroying the craft over which they have labored for hours. The member with the least- damaged model is drummed out of the corps in disgrace. Several other events round out the athletic program. At the lnterfraternity and intramural track meets, cinder coach Roy McCauley discovers all the talent that failed to come out for the track team. But when searching for high jumpers and broad jumpers he never fails to watch Honor l in action, battling bitterly in a volleyball duel with the girls' varsity. The Leaping Lenas invariably outjump the lettermen who are hampered somewhat by a vague sense of modesty and the current fashions. l'-lonor l, needless to say, is modishly clad in the new look- long sweeping skirts and T-shirts. Open house is probably the greatest house- cleaning promotion ever devised. Not only do the individual departments probe every nook for material decent enough to unleash on the public, but the fraternities clear the beer bottles out of the houses, a manuver which leaves many of the 'local pubs short of change for days. The various depart- ments and campus organizations don all the frills and unveil their most attractive displays in the competition for prizes. The Technical Drawing department, for instance, will present an outstanding drawing of a line by one of its advanced students. Note the fine quality of the line, the attached card may say. Observe the lack of fuzziness and the remarkable manner in which the line extends from one end to the other. . And the Physics department lures floods of people to see a bolt of obviously lethal electricity pass through a students' body, with the student emerging only partially decapitated. Like a well-balanced bookshelf, Junior Week is bundled neatly between a pair of bookends- the informal dance and the Junior Prom. The ln- formal, which closes the first night of activity, is an uprorarious affair at which anything may come off, and pity the poor girl off of whom it comes. The ,lunior class, hosts throughout the week of terror, then presents the Junior prom and the announcement of the Man and Woman of the Year as a climax. The Man and Woman of the Year are selected from an imposing list of nominees by a student ballot and presented at the ,lunior prom. They are showered with non-negotiable congratulations and very-much-negotiable gifts. t U V -1, , in' Page Two H andrea' Thirty One .. . ,ww Wa, .HI A W' is .W in. -,, ,.c,,,. .fue-.. :ff--..h-wfAt,,.1gw,,-,L,4, ,,A.l,-.L--AM ,,,, R ,-,,--.,-,-.7: ..-sg e do-4 -We 4- -ee-be e l This club is organized forthe purpose of social and fraternal activities in lceeping with the mature viewpoint of the college veteran: to provide the advantages of Q Fraternal organization, with none of the Features objectionable to the college veteran.

The new gymnasium offered both lockers and shower rooms for women and with the increased facilities, the I.T.W.A. had its program under way in a Few weelcs. ln addition to the athletic program, the I.T.W.A. sponsors a luncheon at the beginning of each term to welcome the incoming women students and to help them become oriented to the school and its policies. The administrative body of the association is the Board ol Control, composed of a president elected by the women students, a secretary, and two representatives from each class group in the school. As a general policy, The l.-l.W.A. and its Faculty sponsors strive to improve facil- ities for women on the campus. 1 Eff fr.. fi f if if is as 1 il S ll EQ, limi 'lf V '-ltt,.f'Nii sf .. .i ROW 1: C.

The photos which appear in the Tech- nology News andthe integral are taken by the members of Armour Eye. The way to achieve fine technique in photography is by taking various types of pictures and working with all types of subjects. Shots taken of the school activities offer the Armour Eye boys unlimited opportunities to practice their art. ln the last Few semesters the Armour Eye has sponsored Field trips to several magazine and newspaper printing com- panies in Chicago to acquaint members with the techniques of' reproduction of photographs in periodicals.- Additional field trips are being scheduled as part of the program lor this year. Speakers tho- roughly versed in the various aspects of photography have spoken at the meetings during the term. 1 ' 4 I i . ill . 1. wi avi fl. .gl ii' iii i i ROW 1 : Mellon, A. Waterloo, E.

Under this new and capable director, Dramatech blossomed forth with Dust of the road given at an all school Christmas assembly. Their interpretation of The Male Animal was also given at two evening performances, and as the major production ot the year, it utilized the promising abilities of the amateur student actresses and actors. As a third and Final project lior the year, Dramatech presented Miracle on Thirty Third Street , a story portraying student lite at I.l.T. Besides having their regular get-togethers at rehearsals, members of Dramatech meet weekly to discuss various stage techniques such as costumes, speech, mal4e-up and lighting. The members go to see popular stage plays as a group. The plays are later discussed and criticised at meetings. Frequent visits are made to the Goodman Theatre For similarpurposes. With a full schedule at school, Dramatech members have managed also to combine an interesting side-life of extra-curricula activities. ROW 1: Maggid, M. Hewitt, M. Dixon, Cotter, G.

Each year the organization has an annual tag day on the eighteenth of December, the proceeds of which go to provide clothing or Food or other helpful services forthe needy in the neighborhood. This year besides the Tag Day they sponsored a Halloween Party with a contest For the neighborhood kids. Christmas time found them on their annual pleasant duty of making up Christmas Baskets. The Settlement House has been one ol their chief in- terests since the organization began. They hope to en- large the supervisory staff to eventually improve the settlement work and to establish a permanent Service Office. Because ofthe poor conditions and the great need For it in this area, a recreation center is also on their long range plan for social betterment. Since their plans are so important and the need For their help so great, the Community Service Committee is sponsoring a series of debates on community improvement to stimulate interest in their organization. . ., N . f.. w - '-t .

Not only will the club keep up the interest of the members but will further a worthwhile extra-curricular hobby. The club holds small contests and exhibitions. ln the spring of 1946 the club held two con- tests. Qne indoor glide contest, held in the Student Union Auditorium, and an outdoor glider contest at Ogden Field. During Junior Week there was an exhibition by the club members to introduce to the spectators the latest designs and developments for models.

The Councii acts as oIticiaI liaison between the coIIege and the Fraternities. It is composed oi the presidents and the treasurers of the eIeven Fraternities on the campus. The success of the Councii has been noteworthy. It has heIped the new student adjust to his new environment. It has sponsored and coordinated a weII-baianced program of fraternity activities. Its program is based onthe premise that the proper development of an individual requires more than he can Find in the cIassroom aIone. During each schooI year, the Interfraternity Councii sponsors interfraternity events in both schoIastic and athletic competition. A Iceen rivaIry develops, bringing out the best in each participant. Last year, tournaments were sponsored in FootbaII, basI4etbaII, basebaII, swim- ming, ping pong., tennis, and bowiing. Winners of each were awarded trophies. A trophy was Iikewise awarded to the Fraternity whose members earned the highest academic marks in their courses.

The cur- rent capacity of the nationalorganization as tenth oldest Greelc-letter college fraternity and fourteenth largest in number of chapters has evolved from two successful mergers with other national fraternities. Consolidation with Phi Pi Phi in 1939 was the First entered into by Alpha Sigma Phi. The more recent merger was with Alpha Kappa Pi on September 6, 1946. Approximately sixty active chapters are located at major colleges and universities throughout the country. Alpha Xi chapter was organized at lllinois lnstitute of Technology as Gamma of Beta Phi in 191 When Beta Phi ceased to exist as a national fraternity in 1921, the local organization retained the name until installed as Gamma chapter of Phi Pi Phi Fraternity in 1923.

Gamma Beta chapter grew From a club formed by seven members of the Class of 1903. At first lcnown as the Monolith Club, the group reorganized in 1900 as the Consonant Club. The Club presented a petition for membership in Delta Tau Delta at the fraternity's Western Division conference on February 22, 1901, and on May 8 of the same year Gamma Beta chapter was in- stalled at Armour institute of Technology. The chapter has been active on the campus for forty- seven years. At least sixty-five of Delta Tau Delta's chapter houses are owned and directly supervised by alumni house corporations, representing an aggre- gate investment of more than 52,500,000 There -. ,,.. 5 ii Frank Bagamery, President are more than sixty-tive active alumni chapters in the principal cities of the United States. OF these chapters, those in New York, Boston and Detroit have alumni club houses. A Fraternity fund is available For loans to deserv- ing upper classmen who need Financial help to com- plete their educations. The Delts are one of the most active groups on the illinois Tech campus. Practically every club and organization has Delts in their membership role. During last year's Junior Weelc the Delt house won the trophy forthe first place honors in the lnter- iraternity Sing and toolc second place in the lnter- fraternity pageant competition. The Delt tennis team oftered tough opposition to the other fraternity teams and won the lntertraternity Tennis Trophy. A very important part of the Fraternity's policy is the promoting of high scholarship among both the active members and the pledges.

PI KAPPA PHI Alpha Phi chapter of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity came to the illinois Tech campus with the absorption of Beta Psi, on May 5, 1935. The latter organiza- tion was a national social Fraternity established at Armour eleven years before. Pi Kappa Phi was founded December 10, 1904, at the College of Charleston, Charleston, South Carolina. Testifying to the fraternity's success in its aims of binding together its members in friendship and common loyalty are the thirty-one under- graduate chapters and the thirty-one alumni groups throughout the country. The national fraternity is governed by its supreme chapter, meeting every two years, and the National Council, whose members are elected by the Supreme Chapter. The official publication is the magazine Star and Lamp of Pi Kappa Phi which is issued quarterly. R. B. Applegate, Archon On the IIT campus, Alpha Phi's chapter house is located at 3220 South Michigan Avenue. Some members live full time at the house, while others live at their homes in or near metropolitan Chicago. informal dances and parties areheld at the house several times a month in addition to the hay rides, snow parties and picnics which are held at ap- propriate times throughout the year. Pi Kaps are active in every phase of student life. Many officers and ex-officers of the leading student activities groups are Pi Kaps. Scholastically, Pi Kappa Phi is represented in several departmental honoraries and also in the national engineering honorary Fraternity, Tau Beta Pi. During the athletic contests, the Pi Kap team is a tough Foe. The Fraternity holds the 1946 inter- Fraternity softball and basketball trophies and was runner-up in the touchball tournament.

With these principles in mind, several Jewish students at illinois Tech in September, 1943, requested and obtained a charter from the Praetorian fraternities qt Northwestern and DePaul Universities. Since then the organization has grown to a membership of almost thirty active members and is backed by a large alumni association. Last year the fraternity had many successful socials and participated in all ofthe activities that are sponsored throughout the semesters by the lnterfraternity Council, such as the sports tournaments and the lnteriraternity formal. Besides actively participating in campus ac- tivities, the Fraternity has maintained high standards oi scholarship. The Praetorians were the second place winners among all Fraternities in scholarship For the first semester of 1946-47 by obtaining a 1.79 overall average. Due to the housing shortage, permanent quarters have not been available, however plans are being made to overcome this difficulty in the near future. PRAETQRHANS ROW 1: W. Neumann, R. Wolff, H.

The Daedalians was founded at Lewis institute in 1899. Originally a fraternity lor architectural engineers, it was later expanded to a social organization to serve students from all parts of the institute. Daedalus, Father of engineering in Greek mythology, is the Figurehead of the fraternity. All ol the ceremony and the principles of the fraternity are based on this mythology. The Daedalians is a local fraternity with active alumni groups in Chicago and New York and other alumni members throughout the country. The social, Fraternal, and educational advancement of its members, through the cooperation of the active chapter and the Alumni Association is its purpose.

The mother chapter was founded at the University of illinois by a group of Civil Engi- neers forthe purpose of establishing closer bondsof Friendship. A charter was granted April 115, 1907. The name Triangle was chosen because of the great significance of this figure in engineering. ln 1921 , membership qualifications were amended to include men majoring in all branches of engineering. Triangle fraternity now has eighteen chapters. Plans are being made to increase the number as soon as suitable schools ahd similar organizations are discovered.

The fraternity is a local group and has no aFfilia- tions with a national group. Delta Lambda Xi was organized to promote better understanding among engineers of different fields, better professional ethics, culture, and the advancement of sciences in engineering. Throughout the lraternity's twenty-four years, it has given members an opportunity to participate in the advantageous activities of fraternity life at the lowest possible cost. During the war years, Delta Lambda Xi was inactive. ln February of 1947, the fraternity was reactivated. It is planning an extensive social and educational calendar forthe coming term. Smokers, dinners and other functions will give the members an opportunity to aslc questions and discuss problems with experienced alumni from every field of engineering. At the present time due to theacute housing shortage and the school building program, the fraternity has no quarters. A meeting place will be provided at the school this semester.

Sigma Kappa is one of the Five oldest national Greek letter sororities, having been founded at Colby College, Waterville, Maine, in November 1874. It was the first Greelc letter sorority to be founded in New England, and though many soror- ities had their origin in literary groups, Sigma Kappa was in the beginning what it is now, an organization of college women,to promote service, cultural development, high scholarship, and in- tellectual life among its many thousand women. There are .Fifty active Sigma Kappa chapters in the United States and Canada, and eighty-four alumni chapters andclubs. Beta Pi chapter was established on the lllinois Tech campus on june 28, 1947. As soon as the school was open to national affiliation, Sigma Beta Theta local sorority became the First Chicago chapter of Sigma Kappa. The local organization had been founded in 1907 on the Lewis lnstitute campus, and alter Forty years of activity, it became illinois Tech's first National Panhellenic organiza- tion. From the time of their first founding as Sigma Beta Theta, the Sigmas have been an outstanding organization cooperating in all student activities. Besides talcing an active part in the leadership of ROW 2: l. Wright, Treas., M. Dixon, Cor. Secy. . the school groups and class offices, the Sigmas sponsor their own activities in the form of their annual Christmas luncheon and date party. It has been the policy of the girls to take their sun lotion and swim suits and retire from the city heat to the annual summer cottage party. Rushing season is the biggest activity on the SK calendar. The Sigmas entertain the freshman women at a variety of parties, teas and picnic suppers. With the coming ofthe spring term, you can always tell the Sigma Kappa girls by their white crew caps with the maroon letters. The many social and administrative aFfairs by no means talce reign in the Sigma Kappa group, For the girls maintained a 1.70 average For the term. A Fine system of academic tutoring is operated within the sorority to aid underclassmen with their studies. On the more serious side, a scholarship is main- tained to aid Sigmas in completing their education. The Maine Sea Coast Missionwhas been the na- tional philanthropy project since 1918. Medical educational and practical aid are given to the folic on the roclcy New England coastal land through the gifts from Sigma Kappa chapters everywhere.

Sigma Cmicron Lambda was organized at Lewis institute in january, 1925, at the suggestion of the Masonic Fraternity, Pi-Over-Two. Member- ship was restricted to girls who were members or who were eligible to become members of the Eastern Star. Twelve charter members composed the first group which Mrs. Marie Spencer, then of the History department, sponsored. Although its first year was quite successful, it was decided by the group to abandon, the relationship with Pi-Oven Two, and the separation took place in the fall of 1925. ln the fall of 1926, the Panhellenic Council extended an invitation to the group to join the organization. The invitation was accepted and Sigma Omicron Lambda became a recognized sorority on the Lewis campus. This affiliation helped to increase Lambdas activities and honors. Even today SOL is one of Page Two Hundred Sixty Eight DELTA ZETA the most active groups on campus, having members in various clubs, offices, and honoraries. The Lambdas sponsor their own activities in the form of their annual dinner dance in the spring, and their noteworthy philanthropy of the Thanksgiving baskets for the needy. Every summer the girls spend a few weeks of their vacation at a lake cottage, resting from their many schooltime activities. Rush season finds the Lambdas very active pro- ducing teas, parties and dinners which add to the fine list of Lambda undertakings. With the play on the word Lamb , the sorority adopted the popular Whiffenpoof Song as their theme. This and the affectionate nicknaming of Mrs. Spencer as Teach , have given some fine tradition to add to the Lambda history. On April tenth of this year the Lambdas be- came the Gamma Mu chapter of Delta Zeta. fr.:.ii:r:-:1 . Vl- Picnlc Fun Lambdcis and Friends ROW 1: L. Kozlowski, C. Bcrteou, E. Beecham, S. Lclngill, l.

When Miss Blanke re- tired, Miss Ruth Severud of the Related Art, Home Economics department toolc over the pleasurable duties of sponsor for the group. Since their founding, the Kappas have excelled in every phase of industry. Alumnae members hold im- portant positions as institutional managers, dietitians, teachers, interior decorators,and several other outstanding occupations. Kappa socials are among the most enjoyable events at lllinois Tech. The Kappa sponsored Barn Dance for the sorority girls on campus and their dates, highlighted the fall term.

A close tie would also be had to other sorority girls through the Panhellenic Council, it was felt. The sorority regularly awards a scholarship to a deserving junior student. They also contribute to the Jewish Welfare Fund as a part of their philanthropy program. Each year a St. Valentine's candy and calce sale is held, and a dinner party shortly after Christmas is part of Phi Beta Pi's long established customs. An admirable policy is to bring the girls closer together by increasing the friendship among the Families of the members. The Mother's Day luncheon and the Father's and Daughter's party are among the gayest affairs shared by the Phi Pi's and their friends. As with all good organizations the promoting of high scholarship is topmost in the goals of Phi Beta Pi. With their activities and their scholarship attainment, this group ranks high in ll-l s organization list. PHI BETA PI ROW 1: E. lesser, H. Siegel, R. Sherman ROW 2: Schwartz, C. Moses, L. Phillips.

Pity- eigbt students have alternated studies with ex- perience-and have earned while learning- in the many departments at A.S.E. They rubbed shoulders with research, design, and produc- tion . . . learned how actual, on-the-job prob- lems are solved . . . gained a valuable know- how that most students lack. Fifteen of these graduates now hold responsible positions at A.S.F. RESEARCH FOR TOMORROW Emphasis upon research, sound design, and quality has made American Steel Foundries the world's largest producer of line cast steel. Today, railroad lading moves faster and safer on A.S.F. Ride-Control trucks. Swift stream- liners are stopped smoothly and surely by A.S.F. Simplex Unit Cylinder Clasp Brakes. A large share of highway hauling rides on A.S.F. Safety trailer couplers. Steel castings by A.S.F. meet a variety of needs.

P. grades from Crude. We have developed a plant which is an improvement over all former methods of distilling glycerine. Gur plants are producing C. P. glycerine in one distilla- tion with low steam consumption and yields of over98Z from Soap Lye Crude. All glycerine is condensed in concentrated form eliminating the handling of sweet-waters. Continuous operation and automatic controls reduce the operating at- tention to a minimum. GLYCERINE EVAPORATORS The improved WURSTER 84 SANGER Soap l.ye Evaporator constitutes a marlced advance in calandria design. Positive circulation of liquor in a definite direction has proved to increase the rate ot evaporation and promote the separa- tion oi large crystals. . The WURSTER 84- SANGER Sweet-Water Evaporator has fulfilled the long need of complete accessibility for cleaning ol tubes. It is equipped with an external heating element which affords high liquid velocity and a high rate of heat transfer. FLICK SEPARATOR The Fliclc Separator efficiently separates entrainment with a minimum pressure drop. Centrifugal force set up by the vapors rotating at high velocity completely removes en- trained liquor from the vapor stream. SOLVENT EXTRACTIGN PLANTS Engineering services are ohfered for plants for recovering fats and oils and for degreasing. The WURSTER 84 SANGER Continuous Solvent Extraction System is a new development in countercurrent flow, designed to ehfect efficient extrac- tion vvith greater operating economy. Gur plants are used for extracting oleaginous seeds and nuts, bones, craclclings and other oil and fat bearing materials. .M ik - .xg D 5-x .X Fm 'uh r ': 5' --.,.. .
