MR. MYERS. WHO BROUGHT TO LIGHT THIS YEAR HIS HIDDEN TAL- ENT FOR PORTRAYING THE GREAT EMANCIPATOR. LINCOLN, CON- STRUCTS TABLES, LAMPS. BOATS- IN HIS WOODSHOP AT HOME, AND BUILDS CHARACTER IN HIS OFFICE AT SCHOOL. NO JOB IS TOO SMALL FOR HIS INTEREST NOR IS ANY TOO BIG FOR HIM TO UNDERTAKE. HIS HOBBIES RANGED THIS YEAR FROM TINY WOODEN FRAMES FOR WEAV- ING TO A TWELVE-FOOT BOAT. THE LESS TANGIBLE ,CHANGES IN CHAR- ACTER WROUGHT IN HIS OFFICE AT TECH ARE NONE THE LESS VISIBLE AND DURABLE. HE IS LOVED BY EVERY TECHITE, FINAL PROOF OF HIS LINCOLN-LIKE OUALITIES. 67.4

k f YY ,Fl I. ,,a N- lg, 99 I Y g -Z-Z ff , T-+5 'ki ip ifffffcf WWI Swzyffws MR. BROWN has had his share oi hard worln in engineering con slruclion. He bossed The planning and conslruclion of l'he iillralion planl al l-ronf Royal, Virginia. To accomplish lhis il was necessary for him fo blasl excavaiions. fo supply sufficienl' rock for the reservoir and lo build a sound founda- lion for The lil+er house. MR. MARSH has had considerable experience in chemical engi- neering. In I9l7 he designed, buill, and operaled a plan? for lhe smelling of Bisrnufh ores ai Congress Heighfs, Maryland. During +he war Mr. Marsh aided in the conslruciion of U. S. Chemical Planf No. 4. localed al Salfville Virginia, and became fore- man of the exiraclion division. Mr. Marsh is The holder oi a B.S. degree lrom George Washinglon Universily. ENGINEERING necessities of a large sugar planlalion are an elec- fric planl, miles and miles of felephone lines. and lhe lighring of lhe 'lcenfralu where lhe worlmers live. Such were 'rhe dulies lalcen over by Mr. Noble offer leaving Yale wilh his Ph.B. in eleclrical engineering in l897 when he was employed as elecfrical engineer by a Cuban sugar planlalion. Before enlering Yale Mr. Noble had learned The machinisls' lrade, He also holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering lrorn Michigan Uni' veVSily. FOR HIS engineering success Mr. Heron received special recog- nifion from Presidenl Wilson and high ollicials of olher governmenls. His was The cons+ruc+ion of fhe iirsi radio lransmirler in Albania eniirely wifhoul oulside aid while he was connecled wilh lhe Firsr Vocafional School of Albania. Mr. Heron holds B.S. and E.E. degrees from George Washinglon Universily. IN HIS firsl experiences al blasfing Mr. Rippey learned lols abcul engineering. While employed by the Washinglon Suourban Sanilary Commission as 'Foreman of consiruclion he was called several limes To supervise blasling iobs. Mr. Rippey is lhe holder of B.S. and M.E. degrees in engineering from George Washingfon Universify. IMAGINE HUGE dampers weighing one lon each being so deli- calely balanced as lo allow rheir being swayed an inch or Iwo by fhe slighlesl pressure change! Such dampers were the biggesf order of Mr, Saugslad 30 years ago in fhe heal and pressure branch of ihe Davis and Roch Tennperalure Conrracling Co. To qualify himself for such posiiions as 'rhis Mr. Saugsrad learned lhe machinisls' frade and served many years as a special sludenl of mechanics. THROUGHOUT his engineering career Mr. Schufle has ccncenrrafed his eiforls foward becoming a highly soecialized experf in Tool Design and Produclion Engineering. In fhis capacify he has worlred for such prorninenf concerns as Aufolile, Cincinnari Milling Machine Co., Nafional Cash Regisler Co.. and Rerninglon-Rand. Mr. Schulle studied af fha Uriversiry ol Hanover Germany where he obfained his B.S. and M.E. degrees in engireering, and a' Uriversny of Cincinnali where he received a degree in Comrnercfal Engireerng. FOR THE Barber-Greeve Corrpany of Awora Illir-'Jis Mr, Ber-ner helped design conveyor Delis. Mr. Benner gradualed from George Washirgion Unifersify wi'h B.S. and M.E, degrees in engineering.
