In 1916 it was purchased by the Ford Motor Company and used for the Ford Trade School. Then in 1932 Henry Ford leased the building to Lawrence Tech for a norhinal yearly fee. e ' ' .-, . . . . founded so that teachers could teach and students could study the nat- ural truths without hias.

This was the year that Dean Russell Ellsworth Lawrence founded Lawrence Institute of Tech- nology. He had great faith and vision. And he had 222 loyal students. There were only ten members of the faculty and the laboratories were not so well equiped. But the small group of students and teachers carried on. Their faith was rewarded when the second year brought an increase to 386 students. Meanwhile the banks closed and the world econo- mic picture grew darker. The next year brought continued growth to 425 students, but it also brought sorrow and confu- sion with the sudden death of Dean. Russell at the age of 45. He had been ill but a short time. At this point the control of the college was put in the hands of Dean Lawrence's younger brother who now heads the institution. He had come from Indiana University to Flint, Michigan, where he was employed in the General Motors engineering laboratories. He was but 25 years old. President Lawrence guided the college through some turbulent years. His faith, too, was well founded for every one of Lawrence Tech's years has shown an increase in enrollment and influ- ence. The number of students has grown to about 3000 with a proportionate increase in the faculty. The original indebtedness has been paid, and a new campus begun in 1957 when the first building opened.

THE ADMINISTRATION President 8. george Lfawrence During those first few years the college was in bad shape fi- nancially which put a great deal of responsibility on my shoul- ders. A period of about three years passed before the teachers could be paid their full salaries. In 1937, I originated the building fund, the objective of which was to build our own buildings sometime in the unforseen future. In 1941, during World War II, the building fund was used for other expenditures which arose at that tine. It became necessary to adopt a war training program in order to retain the instructors and literally keep the college together. After the war a majority of the original students returned to L.I.T. The enrollment increased to about 2500 which was the re- cord until 1956. The college began to prosper again and the building fund Was reorganized. L.I.T. purchased two tracts of land over the years. One was the old Packard Rolls Royce plant which was used as the Tech- nical Institute, and the other was the ninty-four acres on which Northland Shopping Center now stands. Three old maids owned the Northland property. They refused to sell to many real estate firms, but agreed to sell to the college. We originally planned to build a shopping center on the property with a four-story col- lege building next to it. The students were to use the shopping center parking facilities which would have been more than adequate. A large firm from the East heard of the proposed shopping center and put in a bid for the land. When Hudson's heard of this, they began their counter bidding to prevent any further com- petition in this area. The bidding went so high that we were forced to sell. Because the developing expressways in Detroit were to be routed through the old Packard plant, the city found it necessary to buy the Technical Institute property. Our next move was to buy the Latro Experimental Farms which consisted of more than two-hundred acres. The part of the farm which was situated east of Northwestern Highway was sold to the Bendix Aviation Company. The combined profits of these trans- actions was adequate to begin construction of the new building. Now that we have our new building, we are looking forward to a bright future for L.I.T., for there is much room and need for expansion. from the 1957 L-Book 24 L T...-...1-F.-:,rfsr., ,. ..' ---Y, -- - - , Lg..

MATHEMATICS The Mathematics Department has a program designed to give the student the theory necessary to formulate mathematical problems and the edu- cational tools necessary to apply the theory in practical applications. KENNETH A. SNOBLIN COMPUTER Lawrence Tech has recently acquired a new electronic computer and courses are now avail- able in computer programming. The computer is a Burroughs Model E 102. It has an ll column keyboard and a 12 digit readout or printer. The memory unit consists of a magnetic drum capable of storing 2,5000 bits of information. The computer is capable of per- forming 20 additions per second. Division is the machines slowest function-only two or three operations per second. ENGINEERING DRAWING A student works in the drawing lab. The competent engineer uses three languages- verbal, mathematical, and graphical. It is the purpose of the engineering graphics department to prepare engineering students in this area. The knowledge of graphical expression is equally important whether the engineer engages in the drafting functions or supervises them. LOREN M. KNOWLES PHYSICS The Physics at Lawrence Tech is one of the most challenging and rewarding offered. Engin- eering physics, Modern physics, and Nuclear Engineering are three of the courses offered. Each one of these is one year long and is inten- ded to furnish the student with a well rounded background in this growing field. CHEMISTRY The Chemistry programs, through lecture and demonstration, provides the student with a broad, usable knowledge of the nature of matter, the laws of chemistry, and the inter-relationships of engineering substances, processes, and theories.

He was averaging 17.3 points per game at the time of his departure and was one of the mainstays of the team. The loss of Cap was dramatized by the chaotic play of the Blue Devils in their next game. As a result the team lost to a poor Baldwin-Wallace team, 98 to 85. Immediately after this game Coach Verdonckt began to revise the squad in an attempt to ready the team for the Rochester Invitational Tourna- ment during the Christmas holidays. The Blue Devils and Illinois Tech entered the tournament as favorites to meet in the finals. In their first game the Blue Devils beat a helpless Brooklyn Polytic team 110 to 77. The following evening the Blue Devils were up-set by their old foes, Indiana Tech, by a 97 to 93 score, in spite of the record breaking 42 point performance of two time All-American, John Bradley. In the eight team toumament consolation game the Blue Devils beat Illinois Tech, who were also up- set the previous night by the eventual cham- pions. Lawrence Tech won the hard fought game in overtime by a 67 to 66 score. This gave the team third place in the tournament. At the beginning of the new year the Blue Devils returned to Hackett Field House and be- gan their longest losing streak of the season - three games. Then the team won their next four games. Two of the highlights of the season were the Pro-college double headers at Cobo Hall played in conjunction with the Detroit Pistons. Lawrence Tech won both of these games. The first was against Assumption University 181-682 and the second against Tri-State C92-692. The Homecoming Game was played before a capacity crowd, and it proved to be one of the most exciting of the season for Blue Devil fans. They met the highly rated Ferris Institute Bull Dogs and lost a difficult game, 83-78. This was the last season for john Bradley and Rich Carlson. They are both great players and their positions will be hard to fill. One of the players that Coach Verdonckt will look to is Ron Nosek. He was mentioned on this year's N.A.I.A. All-star team. This was a good year, maybe the next will be great. Action and excitement are the keywords of basketball at Lawrence Tech, and this season the fans got lots of it as All-American John Bradley sparked the team to another great year. 55:2 Seasons Results LIT Alma College ...... . . 79 68 De Paul University . . . .... 79 102 Northwood College . . .... 106 86 Detroit Tech ..... . . 93 77 Baldwin-Wallace .......... 85 98 ROCHESTER INVITATIONAL TOURNAMENT Brooklyn Polytechnic ....... 110 77 Indiana Institute ..... . . 93 97 Illinois Institute .... . . 67 66 Franklin College . . . . . 79 89 Muskingum College . . . . . 92 97 Ferris Institute .... . . 67 89 Northwood College . . . . . 90 79 U. of Western Ontario .... . . 64 61 Olivet College ........ . . 95 67 Assumption University . . . . . 81 68 Findlay College ..... . . 76 91 Kalamazoo College . . . . . 64 86 Rio Grande College .... . . 79 61 Tri-State College . . . . . 92 69 Olivet College .... . . 81 67 Ferris Institute ...... . . 78 83 Assumption University. . . . . 87 67 The Blue Devils play many of their games at Hackett Field House l.. Don Ridler, one of Michigan State Univer- sity's all-time gridiron greats, came to Lawrence Tech as a coach in 1938. Ridler was at the helm of many outstanding Dlue Devil teams from 1958 to 1952. He brought Lawrence Tech to national prominence in basketball and was responsible for the rebirth of interest in college basketball in the Detroit area. His Blue Devil squads of the late forties and early fifties played before capacity crowds in the State Fair Colliseum. In 1951, Don piloted the first Detroit area basketball team to the National Invitational Tournament in Madison Square Garden. In the years 1952, 1949, 1948, 1947, and 1943, he and the Blue Devils represented Michigan's Dis- trict 25 in the National Association of Inter- Collegiate Basketball tournament. This was the forerunner of the present N.A.I.A. tournament at Kansas City. DON RIDLER Ath letic Director While an athlete at Michigan State, Don played tackle on Sleepy jim Crowley's famous team of Iron-Men and was captain in 1931. He was named to regional All-American teams by Knute Rockne and Bob Zupke. He was also mentioned in many other All-American Team rosters. After graduation he played professional football in Cleveland and was player-coach of Detroit's first pro team, the Indians. Since his retirement from coaching in 1952, Don Ridler has limited his basketball activities to assisting and scouting for the present coach, George Verdonckt, who was one of great players of the early forties. These action shots show how cooperation, teamwork, and a lot of skill go together to score points. All of the members of the team deserve credit and praise for their efforts in behalf of Lawrence Tech. GEORGE VEPQDONCKT Basketball Coach Coach Verdonckt is a former Lawrence Tech athlete and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from the Industrial Management College in 1943. George starred in basketball, football, and baseball. He played guard on the 1941 and 1942 basketball squads, catcher on the baseball team from 1940 to 1942, and quarterbacked the football team from 1940 to 1942. Prior to his return to Lawrence Tech as basketball coach, Verdonckt coached at St. Juliana, St. Ambrose, and St. Catherine of Detroit. He has also been active in Little League baseball in Grosse Pointe. Verdonckt took over the coaching duties in 1956 and had many difficulties in organizing a Blue Devil squad that could finish the season over 500 . His teams of 1958 and 1959 fell one and two games short of this mark. In his fifth year at the helm, 1960, that Blue Devil team shattered the SOO goal with a season total of twenty-one wins and six de- feats. This team ended the year as the number one offensive team in the nation with a 99.9 point per game average. The 1961 team finished with a thirteen wins and nine loss total and a 83 point per game average. The interest in basketball at Lawrence Tech is on the rise, and the students wish Coach Verdonckt the best of luck with future teams. - . ,V 1 'vs JOHN BRADLEY For the second consecutive year john Bradley has been named to the first team of United Press International's All-American Basketball Team. Bradley is the first Lawrence Tech player to be named twice to UPl's team. Ile is the most prolific scorer in the State of Michigan. In the past three years of Varsity play he has scored a total of 1990 points. During his Varsity years he has scored in the 50-40 point range in twenty- six games, 40-50 range in four games, and his high single game was fifty-three points. In the 1960-61 season he lead the nation in scoring with a thirty-three point average until the final game of the season when he was nudged out by a percentage point. Besides scoring honors, Bradley is the first player in the history of the Rochester Invitation- al Tournament to be named Most Valuable Play- er for two consecutive years. He is the only L.l.'I'. player to be awarded Alpha Gamma Upsi- lOf1,S Most Valuable Blue Devil trophy for three straight years. He has been named to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics District All-American Team for three years also, and to the bin'-.IA National team for two years. The l96l-62 season was john 55ratlley's last for Lawrence Tech, but he will be remembered for many years as one of the college's great basketball players.

It was the best season in the history of the league for Lawrence Tech's teams. Team H2 finished in first place with team N1 a close second. The Varsity teams are selected from the best bowlers in the Intramural League, and there is always much competition for the positions. High series -for the year was rolled by Team Two with a 1013, and Ron Lund took high game and high series for Lawrence Tech with 242 and 642, respectively. Jim Zrimic was next with a 231 game and a 626 series. Other teams in the league are from Electronics Institute, Highland Park J.C., and Detroit Col- lege of Applied Science. Vern Osterlund was league secretary. flniramural Bowling The Lawrence Tech Intramural Bowling League was comprised of eight teams for the 1961-62 season. The league bowls at Star Lanes on Northwestern Highway from October to May. The season is ended with a banquet and the presentation of trophies to the top bowlers. Vern Osterluncl took high game honors for the year with a 268g while Dennis Wilson won the high series trophy with 610. Vern Osrerlund deserves much credit for his fine job as league secretary. ivvov V' 37 ' 4 aff ? .xi , r9 3 gg-.X Z 1 'LW' X ,- '-sbf is! .:' ' f I Y-Q ,' .A glam.. if Wg. ,mtg L , 5 W.. 'N f v THE ACTIVITIES Student Council Sxeeutive Committee Nowhere is the need for some form of student representation greater than in the college. Close contact between the administration and the stu- dent body is certainly a necessity if the school is to grow both academically and as a living, vital part of the community. The college student has definite ideas of how his school should be run and governed. Who could be better qualified to make his views known than a group of his fellow students? One purpose, then, of the Student Council is to serve as a link between the student and the adminis- tration. The Council also acts as coordinator of all campus activities in which the students are involved. The success of the Annual Christmas Party and the Homecoming Dance are just two instances of the Counci1's effeciency in this area. Perhaps the most important role of the Stu- dent Council is that of lawmaker for the students themselves. The strict adherence of the student body to these laws is strong evidence of its attitude toward them. At the same time, the Student Council en- courages the individuality and originality which are so vital to the student during what can be his most formative years. In this Lawrence Tech's Student Council has been most suc- cessful. CL-RD: Chuck Loomis, jan Plas, Doug Erwin, jim Penzak, Sam Bonanno.

Larry Miller, Chuck Loomis, and Doug Erwin work on the needed revisions of the Student Council Con- stitution. l 14 The freshmen plan their attack on the Sophomores Hell Week Entering college is perhaps one of the biggest steps that a man takes for he approaches the strange and unknown world of the college stu- dent. Lawrence Tech helps the entering student make his adjustment by proclaiming one week in October Hell Week. The freshmen are invited to participate, to enjoy, and to learn-for Hell Week is always a memorable occasion. 11 Blood Bank This year, as usual, The Lawrence Tech Blood Bank was a tremendous success. Students from all parts of the city and suburbs gave their time and life-giving blood to this worthy cause. It is to these unselfish individuals, plus the Blood Bank Organization Committee, that thanks is given for a job well done. The function of the Blood Bank is to provide bloodg first to the students who need it, and secondly to outside cases. The Bank fumishes blood not only to the donors but to other students as well - for there are circumstances where some individuals cannot give their blood as they would like to. The Bank receives its blood supply from three drives given throughout the year. The Day school, Night school, and Technical Institute thus have different periods in which their sm- dents can take advantage of this most worthy cause. During the blood drives the student lounge takes on the atmosphere of a hospital. N- 'P Robert Schlaff, Blood Bank chairman. l ,' ? Donating blood is quick and painless. And che doner gets free cookies and milk. i This year's Christmas patty, sponsored by the Student Council, offered a variety of events for the underprivileged children of Southfield. As usual, the most popular person at the party was Santa Claus, who did his best to see that all the orders of the children were filled. After a few helpings of cotton candy, many of the tykes began to sport beards that put Santa's to shame. Also popular were the cake walks, magic shows and cartoons. Many parents in attendance took home baked goods, Christmas flowers, or fruit baskets. Decorations, ranging from stately trees to pastel angels, created their own special glow of good cheer. The Lawrence Tech Glee Club did its usual fine job of providing carols. For the young, Christmas is indeed a magic time. Nowhere was this more in evidence than at this year's party. No one who participated, student or faculty member, could fail to capture a fragment of the true meaning of Christmas. Christmas Party Santa Claus was welcomed by many of the several hundred children who attended. A variety of entertainment was provided by students of a local dance studio. Ricky the clown from WXYZ entertained all of the kids. The whole school was crowded with happy children and adults. This year's Homecoming festivities got under way with the Blue Devils facing a strong Ferris team. The Blue Devils, paced once again by John Bradley, played a strong game, almost up- setting the highly favored Ferris squad. The celebration then moved to the Armenian Hall, where the sounds of Tommy Baldwin made for an enjoyable evening of dancing and social- izing. The intermissions were made lively by the vocal stylings of the jamaicans. The dance was highlighted by the crowning of Lawrence Tech's Homecoming Queen for 1962. The judges were faced with their usual difficult task of choosing one girl from the group of sparkling Misses. Certainly none could disagree with them when they selected Fvliss Dale l-lesser, Alpha Gamma Upsilon's nominee, as L.I.'l'. sweetheart for the coming year. Runners-up were Miss Kathy Fitzpatrick, the L-Book's nominee, and Miss Karen Evans of Circle-K. We do not know how the various campus organizations do it, but each year the candidates seem to get more charming and vivacious. All in all, it was a night to make one wish that Homecoming could be once a week, rather than once a year. 120 Homecoming John Bradley jr. received the most valuable Blue Devil Award from Don Wenderski.

As they take that long walk to get their well-deserved diplomas, they will no doubt recall to mind the wonderful memories of the preceding four years. The last year, of course the best, was filled with academic success, dances, socials etc. Perhaps the best dance was the Senior Dinner Dance held at the St. Clair Shores Civic Center. With other events as important as this one, each senior runs through his own film of events as he is given the passport to society. With their diplomas in hand and bidding fare- well, we the remaining student body wish each and every one of them success and happiness to the fullest degree. uniot Class Ufficers T.

The subjects encountered in this year are generally considered the toughest - but the year is something to look foreward to. The Junior Class is usually the best instigator of activities on the campus, and this year was no exception. The I-Prom, the famed dance of the year, was a tremendous success due to the hard work and perseverance of the juniors. The dance was held in April at the Armenian Culture Center. Besides this memorable, other activities included the annual Christmas party and the activities with Founder's Day. Good luck, Juniors, may your Senior year provide the most in satisfaction to you. 4' Sophomore Class Ufficers This year, as usual, the Sophomore Class presented a successful Frosh Fling. This dance was the climax of the annual Hell Week harassment. It was well received by the Fresh- men who were very tired' after the week of punishment from the Sophomores. Later on during the year, the Sophomores were the honored guests of the Freshmen who presented them a return dance on St. Patrick's Day. The Sophomore Class was also active in other events through- out the yearg such as, the annual Christmas Party and the Homecoming Dance. With spirit and success such as this, the coming years will be fruitful for the graduating class of 1964. I. Beedell, Presidentg J. Gerometta, Vice-presidentg M.

The dance was held at the Piedmontese Club. The theme of the dance was Sham-rock - an appropriate title for the day. With this kind of enthusiarn, this Freshman Class will go far along the ladder of academic and social success. R. Ryan, Presidentg J. Kruge, Vice-presidentg N. Freer, Secretary-Treasurer.

It was originally organized to enable the members to stimulate and further develope a wide scope of interest in architecture through extra-curricu- lar activities. The club's agenda is set up to enable the students to broaden their outlook, judgements, and accomplishments by discussions. From these activities it is hoped that the student will de- velope an interest in remaining alert to what is happening in his profession, not only while a student, but throughout his career. In 19453, the club became il student branch of the American Institute of Architects, which en- abled the students to benefit from professional contacts with the Detroit Chapter of the A.l.f'1. The field trips are arranged to allow the club members the opportunity to view famous works and structures first hand. Some of tl1e places visited in the past are: Taliesin North, Wiscon- sin, Chicago, Toledo, Concordia College in Indiana, Midland, and Ann Arbor. 128 Exhibits and models are a common sight in the main lobby. ,if ri f f 'f-K-------w , .

It presents opportunities for the members to meet and work together, and fur- nishes these men with a friendly Contact with the engineering profession. The club sponsors many field trips to help the members learn about the profession they will enter upon graduation. Together with films and lectures the club has a firm basis for existance in the thrist for knowledge. The club has been in existance since 1955 and has stayed firm in the beliefs of the original doctrine of stressing the educational and not the social needs of the members. 130 Civil Engineering students gain practical experience around the campus.

The Circle-K Club has been in existance for three years and has a strong record of accomplishments to back its reputation as a combined service and social organization. The purpose of the club is to promote fellowship toward the students of Lawrence Tech by gaining their aid in service projects for charitable organizations and to work in the interest of all of the students and the school. It also sponsors an annual Reliability Run for all students. The willingness of all Circle-Ei men to show their support of the objectives of the club is widely re- cognized. Some of these objectives are: l. to emphasize the advantages of the American way of life 2. to promote an opportunity for leadership training in service 3. to serve on the campus and in the community. 4. to cooperate with the administrative officers of the college 5. to encourage activity in groups. 6. to promote good fellowship and high scholarship. 7. to develope agressive leadership and the spirit of service ks. to afford useful training in the social graces and personality Ci evelopment. 9. to encourage and promote high ideals for the college, students and community. l34 Every year Circle-k holds its International Con- vention. Last year it was held in St.. Petersburg, Florida and four club members attended. Over 650 Circle-K men from the United States and Canada were present at the convention.

Lawrence Tech's Rifle Club was started in 1940 and was active for eight yearsg taking first place in inter-collegiate competitions throughout the United States. Through a lack of interest the club terminated its activities in 1948. In 1961, a small group of gun enthusiasts rewrote the constitution and by- laws, but the club has a long way to go before it reaches its former status. At present the club meets to practice and to pass on bits of information picked up through research and experience. The club is at the pres- ent time taking part in inter-collegiate competi- t10fl. The future goal of the organization is to re- turn the first place trophy to the school. There is much work ahead if the club is to reach these goals. The Rifle Club has received some assist- ance from the administration, and has also re- ceived material and help from its faculty advisor. 1.2 131, l J v I The first team of the Rifle Club includes: QFirst rowlt J.

The Society for the Advancement of Management is the recognized national organization of management people in industry, government, Commerce, and education, The first student chapter of the Society in Michigan was organized at Lawrence Tech in june of 1949. Beginning with a small membership S.A.M. has grown to over eighty members this year. The basic objectives of the university program are: C11 to bring together executives in business and stu- dents preparing to go into business, C21 to serve as an effective medium for the exchange and distribu- tion of information on the problems, policies, and methods of industry and management, C51 to provide students with the opportunity of participating in or- ganizing, planning, directing, and controling the activities of an organization dedicated to the promo- tion and advancement of the art and science of management. Plant tours and meetings with business executives give the student an insight into the practice of pro- fessional management. 142 The University chapter attempt to bring the students closer to the business world by bringing them into contact with business leaders through lectures, field trips, and publications.

Schaff, Day school sec Our advancing civilization is increasingly de- pendent on the engineering profession for its health, safety, and well being. The engineer to- day must be adequately prepared to practice his profession, not only with technical proficiency, but also with high moral and ethical standards. Student chapters of the MSPE are organized to help engineering students enrich their lives by beginning those professional contacts and help- ing them to increase their scholastic competence Which, continued throughout life, are invaluable to the practicing engineer. The chapter is also H good place for practicing the principles of personal and public relations. Members may conduct activities, hold office, se- cure outside speakers, and extend hospitality, visit construction projects, make reports, and read the publications of the Society. All of these and many other activities contribute to the mental growth and development of judgement of the student. The purpose of the Chapter, then, is to help the student prepare himself for entry into the profession and society. 146 -J.. 1 Mr. R. A.

The Society of Automotive Engineers formed their student chapter at Lawrence Tech in 1947 and has had a continued growth until today it is one of the largest technical societies on campus. Also the number of members at Lawrence Tech makes it one of the largest S.A.E. groups in the country. The members are either day or evening engineering students. Becoming a member of S.A.E. acquaints the prospective engineer with the many facets of his profession through lectures, films, and field trips. Along with this the society always gives assistance to the members to help them through their courses of study. The society has many guides and aids in helping the student engineer to better under- stand the field he is going into, whether it is research and development or any of the engineer- ing fields, such as, industrial, production, air- craft, automotive, or any of the many others.

Rea, Sgt. at Armsg R. Wegryn, President, D. Weber, Rec. Sec. Cseatedj. Alpha Gamma Upsilon's policy is for better- ment of the school as well as the student. The standards are high, and everyone cannot main- tain these standards. Alpha Gamma Upsilon is a social fraternity. By that is meant a fraternity other than honor or academic. But just because it is not, does not mean that it considers these points unimportant. A.G.U. implies excellence in scholarship, and no chapter is in harmony with the standards and ideals of the fraternity unless it promotes and achieves at least a respectable scholastic average. Traditions that foster learning are not only promoted by the National Fraternity, .but by the other chapters as well. The Scholar's Pendant and Citation for Scholarship are highly coveted by the men at chapter level. Nearly every chap- ter proudly displays its Scholar's Cup with the name of the year's outstanding student en- graved on it. Charitable activities have become tradition among the chapters. These include Easter Egg Hunts and Christmas and Thanksgiving Parties for orphans and handicapped children, and the distribution of baskets to underprivileged fami- lies at Christmas. Perfect brotherhood is very rare in the history of mankind, but it is believed that college fraternities now and then do produce as fine examples of brotherly association and devotion as can be found anywhere. A college fraternity has its ideals but is not ideal and never will be. When the present ideal is reached, if it ever is, there will be a new standard established, an ideal dies when it is achieved.

Over the years it has grown in size and status. It is now recognized as one of the most active fraternities on campus. It gives support to the other fraternities, clubs, and organizations as well as to the school. It is the holder of many awards, including the Blood Bank Trophy, a Scholarship Trophy, and several others. It is also an active participant in the I.F.C. baseball league and is the permanent owner of the l.F.C. jug, having won it three years in a row in the Annual jug Hunt. In addition to supporting functions of other organ- izations, it has held many successful get-togethers of its own. The Annual Moonshine Mingle and the Tuition Club are two of the events in which it asks the school to participate. This year's record-breaking crowd at the Moonshine Mingle consumed more food and beverage than the total of the previous two. New members are honored at the Semi-annual Dinner Dance. Last winter's party was held at the Kenwood Cocktail lounge. Other parties given for the members include bowling parties, a New Year's Eve party, Valentine's party, ice skating and tobogganing par- ties, treasure hunts, and beach parties. To accomplish all of the above events would be truly impossible if it were not for the close, brotherly relationship which exists among the members. ln no group on campus is cooperation needed more than in a fraternity, and in no fraternity is this cooperation witnessed more than in Kappa Phi Sigma Fraternity. Perhaps this is due to the importance it places in the education of its members. Not only does it stress the value of a high scholastic average, but also the ability for and the value of leadership. Many students feel that an education is gained through textbooks alone. The members of Kappa Phi Sigma feel that this is an entirely false conception. To be a well rounded person with the ability to conduct ones self in today's highly competitive society one should participate in as many school functions as possible, accept responsibility when presented with it, and do his share of the work when there is a job to be done. The men of Kappa Phi Sigma have ample opportunity to do all these-in short to become effective leaders of their group. Kappa Phi Sigma is proud of its members who take an active interest in all phases of college life, social as well as scholastic. When any of the brothers re- ceive recognition in connection with a service per- formed for the school or for some other organization, K.P.S. benefits from his prominence. This active in- terest in the school is one of the reasons it is rated highly by many students and members of the faculty. Wall Kraimer displays his form at the bowling party. :J -. - :- CC..

CStandingD: J. janisse Corr. Sec., R. Crenshaw, Rec. Sec., G. Zehnder, Pres. The Michigan Beta Chapter of Kappa Sigma Fraternity is a small part of an international organization. The fraternity was originally es- tablished as an aid to the faculty of the Virginia Military Institute. One of the primary ideals of the fraternity today is to be of as much aid to its respective faculties and administrators as is possible. Although the primary function of Kappa Sigma Kappa is that of a social organiza- tion, much emphasis is placed upon academic scholarship. The fraternity is relatively modern in character but couples this with many tradi- tions carried on from the beginning. From its beginning to the present Kappa Sigma Kappa has endeavored to be national in scope so that the ideals and aims of the frater- nity could be practiced by college men every- where. There are now thirty-two phapters active in the United States and one active in Canada. At present there are seven chapters active in the State of Michigan, four of which are in the De- troit area. The Michigan Beta Chapter at Lawrence Tech was chartered in 1948 and has since be- come a major fraternity on the campus with a membership that it can be proud of. In the years 1961-1962, The Michigan Beta Chapter has sponsored two raffles, a Millionaires Party, and has supported the various Student Council and I.F.C. functions. The brothers par- ticipate in all student organizations. Of the seven students nominated for Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities from Law- rence Tech four are members of the Beta Chap- ter. The fraternity is extremely proud of these brothers. In August, 1961, Kappa Sigma Kappa recon- structed its constitution in Chicago, thus build- ing a stronger, more aggressive organization. A quotation from the pledge manual sums up the fraternity's status quite well: Kappa Sigma Kappa is a modern fraternity steeped in tradition. It continues to grow and build so it can meet the demands and..require- ments of a great international fraternity. The Millionaires party is an annual event. 311.21 ' u Lg, - V' ' m Q R, fi f. fu.

The Phi Kappa Upsilon Founder's Plaque honors the late Dean Russell E. Lawrence. 1932 Phi Kappa 4Upsilon was founded in order to perpetuate the bond of friendship between the original students of Lawrence Tech and those who followed. The fraternity embraces all of the ideals of Dean Russell Lawrence as well as those of the school itself. Phi Kappa Upsilon was organized under a national charter, the nucleus being located at Lawrence Tech. The founding occured on August 15, 1932, at the Whittier Hotel in Detroit. One- hundred thirty-five charter members representing fifteen colleges and thirty-four industrial firms were present to witness the birth of the Phi Kappa.Upsilon Fraternity that evening. The Fraternity House is the focal point of the organization's activities. 1962 The Alumni Chapter was founded in 1954. Its members occupy positions of responsibility in industry throughout the country . Their contribu- tion to the advancement of-the fraternity has been important, but unpublicized. Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon Chapters were founded over a period of years, and in 1959 the Housing Corporation purchased the fraternity House on Nine Mile Road. Phi Kappa Upsilon has had a long and active history and has played a large part in the lives of over 1500 men since that clay in 1932. Phi Kappa Upsilon Delta Cfiapfet R. Schlaff, Presidentg J. Plas, Secretary: L. Miller, Vice-president. Phi Kappa Upsilon Fraternity, the oldest fraternity on campus, was founded August 17, 1932, at the suggestion of the late Russell E. Lawrence, founder of Lawrence Institute of Tech- nology. With the formation of Delta Chapter in day SCh00l in 1939. Phi Kappa Upsilon became the largest active group on campus. Since that time over fifteen humdred men have become mem- bers of the fraternity. The fraternity participates in all of the acti- vities at Lawrence Tech. It has members on the Student Council, Tech News, L-Book, in many clubs and socities, and in class offices. The members also support the dances and parties of the various othenfraternities and clubs ins the college. Besides being active in school affairs, Phi Kappa Upsilon sponsors several of its own act- ivities. The main project is the annual New Year's Eve Party which brings in the new year for many Lawrence Tech students and alumni. Another annual activity is organizing and opera- ting a refreshment stand at the Michigan State Fair. The members work together to make this a profit-making function while having fun at the same time. Each year, with the assistance of the alumni, the fraternity sponsors an impressive raffle on campus. The proceeds are used for a scholarship fund for the school and to help fin- ance the Fraternity House. iii' 1 'A refreshment stand at the Michigan State Fair is one of the Fraternity's many activities each year. i l fFirst fowl: J.

President Alumni The Alumni Chapter of Phi Kappa Upsilon Fraternity has been actively engaged in support- ing both the student chapters and Lawrence Tech since its inception in 1933. In the spring of 1956, they accounted for 2075 of all of the funds raised by the fraternities for the Campus Development Fund. The Alumni has sponsored the fraternity's Alumni Dinner Dance every year since 1934. During the spring of 1959, with the aid of the collegiate chapters, it held a raffle in which first prize was a Ford Falcon. This money was used for the fraternity house and to establish a scholarship award for new members. In conjunc- tion with this the Alumni awards a 3 25 bond to the pledge who raises his scholastic average the most while pledging. From the returns on the 1960 raffle, a boat, motor, and trailer, the Chap- ter donated SIF 200 to the college's Library Fund. The Alumni Chapter has a paid-up membership of over one-hundred Brothers and is continuing to play an active part in the affairs of Lawrence Tech and the collegiate chapters. , . N --,-u, Housing Corporation The Fraternity House is the Pride of every member of the fraternity. Purchased after many years of combined effort by every member, it has become a symbol of cooperation and progress for everyone. This makes Phi Kappa Upsilon a fraternity to which every member is proud of belonging. The Fraternity House, now in its third year of operation, was purchased by the Phi Kappa Upsilon Housing Corporation in the spring of 1959. The purchase of the property was the cul- mination of more than twenty years of hope and effort on the part of the members of Phi Kappa Upsilon. The House, located on two acres of land at 21000 West Nine Mile Road, is a large nine room brick building. The first floor includes a huge living room, lounge, kitchen, dinette, and a large hall for fraternity functions. Three bed- rooms on the second floor provide sleeping space for fourteen members. The living room and lounge have recently been redecorated, and many other improvements are now in the planing stage.

The first of these goals being to in- itiate and support many social functions for the fra- ternity throughout the year. These social functions include two pledge mixers which enable the members to socialize with prospective members, two dinner dances to honor the new members in the spring and fall, a picnic in the summer, a halloween party, and, of course, many other parties. Each February, during the past few years, the fra- ternity has held St. Valentine's Day dances which have been very successful. In April of each year the traternity holds a Sportsman's Club raffle which is always a popular event on campus. Along with the social aspect of fraternalism, Rho Delta Phi strives to develope high standards of morals and character, to encourage scholarship, and to develope honor and loyalty among the students of Lawrence Institute of Technology. Rho Delta Phi consists of both day and night school students. This is a tremendous advantage in that the fraternity has people representing it in all phases of activity around the school whether it be day or night.

The big event of the year is the annual ban- quet. For the past two years the banquets have been held in the penthouse of the Veteran's Memorial Building. The wives and girlfriends of the actives and alumni also attend. At the ban- quet the new officers are introduced, and the new members are presented with their pins. The re- mainder of the evening is devoted to dancing and other social enjoyment. Other events of the year are the Christmas Party and the Valentine's Dance, Cupid's Capers.

Distinguished recognition is given to students with excellent academic rec- ords combined with exceptional interest and contributions in student activities. Lambda Iota Tau recognizes that constant improvement is a necessity for any dynamic organization. Therefore, their improvement is directed toward the stand- ards set by the national honor societies. In 1959, a big step in this direction was taken by raising the requirement of six terms with a 2.0 honor point average to nine terms and using the total of fourteen activities points instead of the previous total of points per term. Congratulations to Lambda Iota Tau, and to the new members who have filled the qualifications of this society. 5au floia Tau Iota is the honor society representing the Technical Institute and has the same objectives as Lambda Iota Tau in the college. The intention in forming Tau Iota was to give recognition to the Technical Institute student who has excelled not only academically but in extracurricular activities as well. Tau Iota was formed and given its charter by the Student Council in 1959. Congratulations to Tau Iota and the Technical Institute. 183 ,Lui lit The General florors Technical Center is one of the many employers of Lawrence Tech grad- uares in the Detroit area.
