 JC f ' S=C-?HE 1192© EMF' 7- The industry is now indispensable for the welfare and comfort of the people in all the civilized world. Much still remains to be accomplished and developed however, and the student engineer of today will play a large part in the achievements of the future. The possibilities which arc before us are practically unlimited, and who knows that but some of our own student mem- bers of today will be destined to make discoveries and developments which will cause the wildest dreams of Jules Verne to pale into insignificance. The average student does not realize the honor and privilege of becom- ing identified with the A. I. E. E., but it is hoped that eventually, every stu- dent will become interested and help to make this branch the most enthusias- tic and successful of its kind in the country. New applications arc received from day to day and the following is a list of the enrolled students to date: One hundred and twenty-one students have been enrolled ’but 20 have severed their connections with the school since enrolling, leaving 101 active members at the school at the present time. A roster of the Faculty and Student Members is given below: FACULTY John D. Ball B. A. Bovee W. E. Hennig H. D. Mathews F. A. Vaughn F. W. Kratzer F. A. Kartak C. G. Brown J. E. Hughes Chas.

r M8 THE 1920 EHF; •.'S' ' -------X ' OJItp tEU'rlrnti'dntiral (Elub Organization On the 5th clay of November in the year of our Lord, 1919, the Electro- technical Club was organized. Remember this date, everybody, because the organization of this club is the greatest event that has occurred since that memorable day, that we all know so well. July 4, 1492, the day that Hannibal crossed the Delaware and attacked the Greeks at the Alamo. The afore-mentioned meeting took place in Room 73 of the Insurance Building at 7:30 p. m. and 23 students were present. The chairman, Mr. Bauer, called the meeting to order. Mr. J. E. Hughes executed the opening address. He explained the purpose of the meeting, the need of a technical club in the department, and he helped us to get started on the rock .• way. Officers were elected and a Constitution and By-Laws which had been pre- pared by a special committee were read, amended and adopted. The charter of the club was drawn up, all those present affixed their John Hancocks and PRESTO—The Electrotechnical club was ushered out into the unsuspect- ing world. The purpose of this society is to create a broader knowledge of technical subjects, to promote the general welfare of the students of the elccrotechni- cal department, to give training, a much needed training, in public speaking, and to interchange practical knowledge and experience to the benefit of all. At every meeting interesting technical subjects are discussed (both with and without the ‘dis’). Members of the society arc called on to give talks on the subjects with which they are most familiar or on the ‘line’ that they can ‘spiel’ on best. It has been suggested to call in outside speakers but such good material has been found among the members that it has not been neces- sary as yet. Illustrated lectures will be a feature of this year’s meetings. It has been found that slides can be obtained from the advertising departments of different large manufacturing concerns such as the General Electrical Com- pany. free of charge and with the aid of the school’s stereoptican machine many interesting programs can and will be prepared. It is the intention of the society to make tours to the different power houses and industrial plants in and about the city under the personal supervision and guidance of our faculty advisor Mr. Hughes. Another subject that occupies considerable of our attention is the Einstein Theory. According to Mr. Einstein, the noted scientist and astronomer, this universe of ours is limited instead of unlimited as had been heretofore the pop- ular belief. If a body is imagined moving in space, according to physics, that body will continue to move in a straight line forever and ever, that is, if no external forces such as gravity affect its motion. But along comes Mr. Einstein and explodes our nice little theory or rather he tries to. He states that the body will not travel in a straight line but in a perfect curve, and eventuallv it will in its course of motion return to its starting point or the position in space that we imagined it to start from. If this is true and space is limited it rather upsets everything. If Mr. Einstein is correct, what is outside of the Universe? It is rather hard to conceive, but I have faith in the Electrotechnical club’s ability to solve this pressing question. As yet Mr. Einstein and his partners in crime have not called upon us for our as- sistance. but. perhaps he has not heard of us as yet. Give him time. You can’t expect him to know everything. 1 I.- Page Three Hundred Fifty-four
