VA-UlX LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-ROLLA ROLLA, MISSOURI 65401-0249 THE ALL- SCHOOL EDITION PUBLISHED BY THE MISSOURI SCHOOL OF MINES AND METALLURGY ROLLA, MISSOURI -. ' v In ifflemortant (£I|ftHre Caitrrnri Diikr, April 2, 1883 rpirmber 3, 1934 The many friends and associates of Doctor Charles Laurence Dake were greatly shocked upon learning of his sudden death from cerebral hemorrhage, at Denver, Colorado, September 3, 1934. Doctor Dake was on his way home to Rolla, after spending most of the summer in the vicinity of Cody, Wyoming, working out some of the details of the Hart Mountain Overthrust, which he discovered in 1916. The work was part of a project sponsored by the Geological So- ciety of America under the Penrose bequest. He had not been in the best of health for several years past and the summer ' s strenuous work in a region of high altitude may have been responsible for his death, especially since in his tremendous enthusiasm for his work he often drove himself almost to the point of ex- haustion. Professor Dake was born in Chaseburg, Wisconsin. The son of a carpenter, in his early years he too, started to learn this trade, but after completing his high school course decided to enter the teaching profession. He spent two years at the River Falls State Normal School and then entered the University of Wisconsin at Madison, receiving the A. R. degree in 1911 and the A. M. degree in 1912. In 1922 he received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy from Columbia University, New York City. In the fall of 1912 Doctor Dake began his teaching career as an instructor in geology at Wil- liams College, WilHamstown, Massachusetts, The following year he was appointed Assistant Professor of Geology and Mineralogy at the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy. He was made Associate Professor in 1918 and Professor and Head of the Department in 1921, the posi- tion he held at the time of his death. He obtained leave of absence in 1917-18 and spent the year in commercial work in the mid -continent oil fields and in Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico. He was granted leave of absence a second time in 1920-21, when he attended Columbia University, and again in 1930-31 when he was employed by the Sinclair Company. Doctor Dake was primarily a teacher. His greatest contribution to geology came from the classroom. From his classes emerged a large number of men in whom he had instilled a portion of his own vigorous enthusiasm for the work. Many of these men whom he started on their careers are today in positions of responsibility. Tn his teaching he had very little tolerance for the student who loafed on the iob. He expected every man to exhibit the same interest and industry which he himself possessed, particularly if the man had elected geology for a major sub- ject. In the classroom his manner of presentation was clear and forceful and his students soon learned that it was not enough to repeat what had been heard in class or read in a textbook. Tn his practical work he was no less thorough than in the classroom. His work for the Mis- souri Geological Survey won for him the reputation of being one of the outstanding students of the stratigraphy of the lower Paleozoic formation of the Mississippi Valley. His efforts in practical work and research resulted in some thirtv contributions to technical journals, two vol- umes of the Missouri Geological Survey, and a bulletin of the School of Mines and Metallurgy. Doctor Dake was a member of Acacia. Gamma Alpha. Phi Beta Kappa. Sigma Xi, Phi Kappa Phi, A, T. M. : M. E., Geological Society of America, American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science, and several other organizations. . Thus we mark the passing of a man prominent in the geologic profession. The achieve- ments. briefly mentioned, are but a few mile posts in a distinguished career, cut short hv an untimely death. What he did in life is easily told but what he was is difficult to express, even for those who knew him best. Of this we are sure, he was a man of broad culture. Primarily a scientist he was nevertheless highly appreciative of the beauties in nature, literature, art, and music. To his scientific interest in and study of geology he brought the imagination of the poet and the mind and grasp of the philosopher. Copyrighted by Nicholas J.

An engineer ' s education cannot be completed in one department. He must have a general knowledge plus the specialized knowledge of the field he chooses. Thus we dedicate this book to all the departments of the school, as it is through the co-operation of all that we obtain the knowledge necessary to carry on our chosen careers. -Vvv„ SHSI CONTENTS Chapter I Chapter II Chapter III Chapter IV Chapter V Chapter VI Chapter VII Chapter VIII Chapter IX Faculty Classes Athletics Honorary and Professional Fraternities Social Fraternities Campus Organizations Military St. Pat ' s Humor and Advertising □ INTRODUCING THE PRESIDENT, the Director, and THE FACULTY This Section of the all-school Edition OF THE ROLLAMO IS DEDICATED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF - Mining Minimj is one of the fundamental industries. On it many other industries depend, for (heir supply of ores , coal, and clay . The use of metal is increasing so the Mining Engineer must devise new methods of mining greater quantities of ore. The old methods have given way to the new, and the Mining Engineer has had a prominent part in this development. c W A LTER W I LH AM S, LL, D. i resident of University of Missouri O ■O 03 ) V, J l |. d IV 1 X � J I LI l ( v , i1 Director, Missouri School of Mines E, M. r i).

Vaguely seeking after knowledge, (A pursuit extremely rare). First he learns to thread a needle. Draw a circle or a square , Copy signs with mystic meanings. Or with meanings odd , and rare , ( Meanings very odd and rare). Then he plays with tubes and bottles. Spills sonic acid on his clothes, Burns his fingers on the glassware, Or ignites the rubber hose. Puts together wrong ingredients, H afts the chlorine foivnrd his nose , ■Struggle vainly with equations, Which surpass his other woes, (Far surpass his other woes). Next in turn comes mathematics, Where the teachers all expound On the functions of an angle , 1 1 eird, illusive and profound ; Worst of all is analytics. With its sections hyperbolic And its circles and ellipses Which induce a mental colic, (A most dreadful mental colic). M can :c7j tile E n g l ish co u rs es, va ri o us, Rhetoric, and parts of speech, Literature that’s quite nefarious, Bring probation right in reach, And the Freshman starts to wonder With curricula so queer, C an he graduate with honor And become an engineer. Really be an engineer f Thus the Freshman ' s search for knowledge Seems an aimless quest for lore That will never hold his interest Like a first-class football score. Hold your courage, weary Freshman, Men ha ve trod this path before. Next June you , too , may move upward And he co me a Sophomore, Wise and old, a Sophomore. Eugene A. Stephenson.

FOOTBALL PITTSBURG TEACHERS 18 — MINERS 6 File K. S. T. C. Gorillas of Pittsburg, Kansas, defeated the Miners 18 to 6 m the Miners lirsl game of the season. Playing on a rain-drenched field, before a huge crowd, the Miners were unable to get their offensive under way, and the only lime they scored against the Gorillas was at the opening kickoff of the second hah, when Jim McGregor, fleet Miner back, grabbed the kickoff, and behind excellent blocking dashed 8 yards for a touchdown. At times the Miners looked as ii they were going places, and defensively the Miners did a good job ot holding down the fast Pitt backs during the greater part of the game, but something would always happen and leave the team in a tight spot. Pitt ' s passing and running attack, while not steady, seemed to function in the tight spots, and when the breaks came they took advantage of them. The Miners made sixty-three yards from scrimmage against Pitt ' s 118. The Miners ' six passes were good for fifteen yards and Pitt ' s sixteen were good for forty-eight. I he Miners held a slight edge on punting, getting off fourteen for a total of 422 yards and Pitt kicked sixteen times for a total of 425 yards. However, Pitt held the advantage because of the poor handling of their punts by the Miner receivers. . I f N E R S 0— A R K A N S A S TECH 6 M ie Miners again went down to defeat in their second game of the season, I bis time the shellacking was administered by the Wonder Boys of Arkansas Tech, and the game was played in a sea of mud. Nickel, Miner ha] ft jack T performed brilliantly on the offensive, and his punts time and time again drove the Arkansas team far back down the field. Nick was also the only Miner hack who was able to shake the Wonder Boys off his back and gain any appreciable yardage. Folsom, who replaced Dudley at left end, played a bang-up game on the defense, and it was very seldom Arkansas made any yards around his end. 1 he Miner offensive, while lacking a scaring punch, outplayed the Tech team three first downs to two, and outgained them sixty-nine to forty-five yards. (46) However, Arkansas had the edge in the aerial offense, attempting only five passes and completing two of them for a total of foity-one yaids, while f In. Miners threw twelve passes and completed only three ot them for a total of forty-two yards. Injuries among the Miner backs slowed up the Miner offensive, and the muddy field was not conducive to the Miners style of play, their spinnei s and cutbacks being rendered ineffective by the treacherous footing. Miner tumbles also proved costly, of their five miseries only one being recovered, and that for a ten-yard loss. MINERS 0 — KIRKSVILLE 19 In their third game of the season, the Miners again went down to defeat in the hands of Kirksville Teachers, M. 1. A. A. champions, under a score of 19 to 0 The fast Kirksville eleven displayed plenty of power, and proved too much for the weakened Miner team, who were still suffering from injuries m the back field, and could make very little headway on the offense. In the first quarter, Kirksville, after one of Doyle’s long punts got over the Miner safety, scored by a pass and several line plunges. In the second quarter, Kirksville scored again as the result of an intercepted pass and a long run by Embree, Bulldog quarterback. The Teachers scored again m the thud quarter by running the Miner ends, and a series of line plunges I nis lime the try for extra point was good, making the score 19 to 0, with Kirksville on the long end. It was the outstanding play of Embree and Doyle of Kirksville that proved to he the Miners’ downfall. Embree and his sensational running, and Doyles tine punting putting the Miners in the hole time after time. It just wasn t the Miners’ night, and Kirksville couldn’t be stopped. MINERS 6— McKENDREE 20 M cKendree defeated the Miners in the Homecoming game, for the first time in eleven years, by the score of 20 to 0. The score, while decisive enough does not tell the inside story of the game. The Miners, time alter time, would (47) Sit lire — End Penzel — Ta ckl e Bolilin — End Mattel— Guard Ballard — Guard Wilkcy— Halfback Reese — End A ppl eya rti — Tackl e Blisli— Halfback Holman— Center Murphy — End Fernandez — Halfback Pfei f cr — Fullback Vahie — Guard Harris— Tackle G r e vv i s— Gu a r d Vincent— Guard A y I w a r d— T ac k 1 e ( 48 ) march straight down the field only to be stop ped in the shadow of the goal posts ] ) v fumbles or intercepted passes. The first McKendree touchdown came as the result of an intercepted pass and a long run by Wilson, star hack. The next McKendree score came when Norris grabbed Nickel’s fumble in mid-air and raced sixty yards practically unnoticed. The third touchdown also resulted tram an intercepted pass and a line plunge by Wilson, who gave the Miners plenty of trouble by bis fine running and passing. The Miners’ only score was made by Neel, who slipped around right end for the counter after the Miners had recovered a bad kick on the twenty-yard line. Nickel and McGregor carried the brunt of the running attack tor the Miners, and Pfeifer did some excellent pass receiving. Penzel, Folsom, and Captain Spotti played bang-up games on the defense for the Miners. The Miner blocking and tackling in this game was a great improvement over the first three, and the team began to look as it it would come out ot the slump and show some real football during the remaining games. MINERS 0— ARKANSAS U. 20 Arkansas’ mighty Razorbacks proved too much for the Miners, and, while the Silver and Gold machine looked fy better than in any of its previous games with a gamely fighting line and nicely working backfield, the Southwest Conter- ence champions of last year held the decisive edge over the Miners. Behind by twenty points with but a quarter to go, the Miner second string team made a march of sixty-five yards down the field, only to be stopped by a pass across the goal line which was just beyond the receiver s hands. .1 he work of the second string backfield was particularly good; Neels tine_ passing in tie fourth quarter was largely responsible for the only sustained drive the Mmeis made McGregor bore the brunt of the running attack and did some tine punting Pfeifer, Plummer, and Schwab played a great defensive game among the backs, and in the line, Captain Spotti’s, Massero ' s, Penzel s, Folsom s and Appleyard’s work against one of the best lines m the South was really good.

MINERS 0— ST. LOUIS U. 25 The Miners met their sixth defeat of the season in the hands of the strong St Louis Billikens. The Miners were outweighed by a large margin and the speed and size of the Billiken backs was too much for the small Miner eleven. The Billikens scored in every quarter, Wood taking the ball over from the seven-yard line for the first score, the second coming from a Miner tumble on the seventeen-yard line. Hurley made a long dash for the third marker, and a pass from Wood to Kane ended the scoring. St. Louis deserved to w in the game. Their big, fast team was at its best. However, the Miner line deserves much credit for the great performance the; turned in, and Captain Spotti ' s defensive work was a tower of strength in the center of the line. McGregor’s and Nickel’s punting was very good. Nickel’s punt from Ins own twenty- six-yard line was responsible for the only Miner scoring chance. The punt was fumbled by St. Louis and recovered by the Miners McGregor took the ball on a sweeping right end run and crossed the goal line, but the officials claimed he touched the flag and disallowed the score, mg on ; Miner hope. McGregor was also the mam ground gainer tor the Miners, making fifty-nine of the seventy-two yards gained from scrimmage. MINERS 49 — SPRINGFIELD TEACHERS 0 A victory starved Miner team began clicking and romped over the Spring- field Bears to the tune of 49 to 0. It was the first victory of the year, but it helped to make up for some of the earlier reverses. The Miner back field made one long gain after another, piling up 418 yards from scrimmage, and completing eight out of ten passes for ninety-one yards. The victory proved to be costly. Three Miners, Massero, mcent, and able all guards, were out the remainder of the season as a result ot injuries ieceive in the game. (51) rhc Miner offensive was slow to start and it was the middle of the first quarter before McGregor went over for the first score, Jn the second quarter the Miners piled up eighteen points on touchdowns, one by Nickel, and two by 1 fei fen Schwab added six more points in the third quarter, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter Nickel went over after a nice twenty-seven-yard run, Neel made the seventh Miner touchdown, after Pfeifer had brought the ball in position by a long run, McGregor took the ball over for the final score in the last minutes of the game Everything was working that afternoon, and it was a great day for the Miners, MINERS 18 — MARYVILLE TEACHERS 14 The Miners closed their 1934 football campaign with an 18 to 14 victory over the Maryville Teachers. After running over three touchdowns in the first half, the Miners were content to sit back and watch Maryville run over two touchdowns with the aid of several long passes and a reverse play that the Miners could not stop. I he first half looked like it would be a runaway for the Miners, but the Teachers came back strong in the second half and with a strong running attack and several long passes almost overcame the Miner lead. Neel started the scoring when he took the ball on what appeared to be a trick play and side stepped and twisted his way to a touchdown. The second marker came from a pass, Neel to Folsom, who raced to the one-yard line with the ball, from where it was carried over by Plummer , on a smash through center. Just before the half ended Nickel dashed around right end for the third touchdown, after a Maryville punt had been blocked by Murphy. Jn the third quarter, a blocked Miner punt paved the way for the first Maryville touchdown, and the second came after a long pass from Benson to Jones was completed, Maryville converted both tries for extra points Maryville then began a desperate passing attack, but Miners were everywhere, and the game ended with the ball on the four- yard line in possession of the Miners. BASKETBALL The Missouri School of Mines 1934 basketball squad playing their last Missouri Collegiate Athletic Union schedule, split even with the championship Westminster five, and also broke even with the second place Drury quintet. The Miners did not fare so well against the stronger Missouri Inter -Collegiate Athletic Association teams, dropping two decisions to the Springfield Teachers, and dividing a pair of contests with Ahc Stubcr’s Cape Girardeau squad. The Miners also dropped two games to St. Louis University, one in St. Louis and another on the local court. The appointment of Elmer Kirchoff as head basketball coach was also one of the features of the season. At the start of the season Kirchoff had six veterans on which to build this team: Robert Prange, Robert Lange, Herman l’feifcr, Jim McGregor .us Wommaek and Eager Nixon. Nixon, the only senior on the team, and leifcr, husky defense man, were appointed co-captains. Injuries prevented the team from improving its .500 percentage record, winning eight games and losing eight. Featuring two freshmen, Miners opened their season This was a very close game in this game with ten points. Gordon Moreland at guard, and Floyd Watts at forward, the by playing the Cape Girardeau Teachers at Cape Girardeau, and the Miners won 26 to 25. Pfeifer was high point man Returning to Rolla for their last game before the Christmas holidays the Miners walked over the Central Wesleyan five, 30 to 22.

Led by Ld Ball man and loe Carroll, who finished second and third respectively in the scoring list, the Freshmen went through an undefeated season to gain the honors from last year’s title holders, the Pi K. A. squad, which finished in a tie for third place. The Sophomore quintet finished in the show ’ position with eight wins ami two losses, losing to the Freshmen and the Merrier fives. Led by Sam Smith, who set a new School record for scoring with 113 markers, to surpass K ea.de Beard’s 107 points made in 1934, the Sophomores were always in the thick of the fight. Smith averaged 12,5 points per game, and was followed by Ballman with 7.7 and Carroll with 6.88. Harvey, a Senior, had a better average than Carroll, but did not score as many buckets. Tied for third were the Pi K A s, Seniors and Sigma Nu’s, all with seven victories and three defeats. The Pi K. A. ' s lost to the Freshmen, Seniors and the Sophomores, while Sigma Nu dropped close battles to the Freshmen, I 1 . k. A.’s and the Sophomores. The Seniors, after getting off to a bad start, played good ball and finished tip in the tie for third, also dropping three games by the wayside in the hot race Harvey’s sensational shooting kept the bewhiskered lads in the running, as lie ended the season with 58 ducats on the right side of the books. The Merciers, Lambda Chi’s, Kappa Sig’s, Triangles, Sigma Pi’s and the Juniors finished up in the order named. The Juniors forfeited all of their ten games While not as exciting as in former years, the intramural contests proved just as popular as ever, with eighty members of the eleven teams going through their paces every few days.

The meetings held by these societies are the place to exchange ideas of the profession. It also gives the student an opportunity to hear outstanding engineers speak. It would be worthwhile for each student to affiliate himself with the chapter of the professional society which represents the engineering field he expects to follozv.

Without his advice much time ami money would be spent in developing worthless projects . His knowledge of formations and rocks leaves nature as an open book before him , as he reads the signs in his hunt for new mines and oil fields. GAMMA XI OF SIGMA NU 0 ■ ‘ ia Xu vvas founded at Virginia Military Institute by Frank Hopkins, neentidd Quarles, and James Riley. Although the fraternity actually existed as early as 186 6, it was not organized until January 1, 1869. Chapters elsewhere were organized, and by 1903 there were sixty-two active chapters. chapter ’ at Missouri School of Mines, was installed January 23, , . lh,S chapter . was organized by Ray Rucker, a member of Rho chapter at University of Missouri, and John T. Rice, a member of Gamma Eta chapter at Colorado School of Mines. The installation was held at the Masonic Temple, where ten men, besides the founders, were initiated. Sigma Xu was the first fraternity on the School of Mines campus, and before the student body understood the purposes of the fraternity, they showed gieat resentment. Later, good feeling was restored. I hiit} -six men from the Gamma Xi chapter were found under the colors ot the United States in the Great World War. Among these were John Thomas eenan, a majoi in the Corps of Rngineers; C lark C. Bland, a captain in the Infantry, and one of the founders of Sigma Nu, John T. Rice, a captain in the Corps of Engineers. Men from this chapter may be found in various parts of the world, and many are famous in their professions. A. Emory Wishon is often spoken of as being the biggest man in public utilities on the west coast. Two men from tins chapter are members of the faculty of the Missouri School of Mines: Dr H. H. Armsby, registrar, and Prof. C. J. Millar, professor of Biology. 1 In. Sigma Xus have been among the leaders in campus activities since this chapter was organized. During the past sixteen years, it has had ten football captains, as well as producing leaders in scholarship. During the thirty years’ existence at the Missouri School of Mines, Gamma Xi of Sigma Nu has initiated 255 members. ( 82 ) SIGMA NU OFFICERS W. G. T WYMAN E m i n e n t Co mm a nder R. 1 1.

The founders were not denied the opportunity to become associated with some of the dozen fraternities of th ®. time at the University of Virginia, but three of them, McCormick, Rogers and Nicodemus, had been dose friends as young men in Baltimore. They wanted to be together and under the leadership of McCormick decided to found an organization of their own. The relations of these three and Arnold and Boyd ueie so close, they have always been known in the literature and tradition of the fraternity as the “five friends and brothers.” J he original Constitution names the fraternity Kappa Sigma, describes the badge, and gives the significance of its parts and of the emblems appearing upon b badge, designed by the founder, Rogers, lias never been changed. Among the lead and zinc mines of Southwestern Missouri, the Missouri School of Mines, at Rolla, was under informal consideration from the time of the fraternity’s first entrance into the State. A suggestion that the School of Mines, being a part of the State’s educational system, might he entered through a branch of Beta Gamma at the State university, this was found impractical. A petition from a group of men at Rolla gained consideration on its own merits, and on December 19, 1903, the chapter was formally installed. Representatives of the three chapters in Missouri and the one in Arkansas took part in initiating the ten charter members of Beta Chi, In 1927 the chapter bought its house.

The first idea and conception of the fraternity took place at V, M, I, shortly after the battle of New Market, in which the cadets of that school took such an active part. i he fraternity rapidly expanded throughout the South, and six other chap- ters were established during the first ten years. The fraternity was never sectional but tended to limit its expansion to the Southern States until 1909, Alpha Kappa Chapter was installed on the Missouri School of Mines campus on December 2, 1905, Installation was held in a house that the new chapter had rented and seven men formed the list of initiates, J he new fraternity met with much opposition at first from the other houses as they believed that there was not room for another group on the campus. The charter members, however, proceeded to furnish their new home and soon the animosity died and all of the fraternities were working in harmony, 1 hirty-six men from Alpha Kappa saw service during the war. Numbered among those who rose to rather high positions are : Col, W. F, Siegmuud, Field Artillery ; Major T. S. Dunn, Engineer Corps; Captain J. M. Goldman; Lt, W, C. Zeuch, Outstanding graduates from Alpha Kappa are E. R. Needles, noted bridge engineer; Ray G. Knickerbocker, well known metallurgist; D. H. Radcliffe, wealthy oil-well operator; Ira L. Wright, prominent mining engineer, and H. T, Mann, professor at M. 1. T, Members of the fraternity who are on the School of Mines faculty include W, C. Zeuch, M. D, Orten and J, C. Cullison, Alpha Kappa has alway been outstanding in campus activities, producing more Miner Editors than any other group. Other fields of activity of the chapter include athletics, with eight letters being won this year, the Rollamo, and honor- ary societies. In its nineteen years on the campus Alpha Kappa of Pi Kappa Alpha has initiated 233 men. ( 86 ) PI KAPPA ALPHA OFFICERS H. [. Pfeifer 5. M. C. W. O. Neel . M. C. W A. Howe TIu C R« C. Lange S.C.

The Missouri School of Mines Chapter of Sigma Pi was installed on April 29, 3933, from what had formerly been t lie Prospector Club, ■ lhe of 1913 a group of sixteen upper classmen at the Missouri School ot Alines and Metallurgy, not affiliated with any of the local social fraternities, hut realizing the desirability of such affiliation, organized and founded the Prospector Club. The specific purpose of the organization, as stated in the original Constitution, was lo foster good fellowship among its members, and to frankly strive to promote the interest of the members and of the School of Mines.” Arrangements were all completed by ternary, 1914. and recognition by the school was obtained. At the outbreak of the World W ar, practically the entire membership of the Club enlisted, leaving the Club with but a handful of members. These managed to keep the spirit of the organization alive, and in 1919 the Club was successfully i cot gain zed. In 1922 it was incorporated under the Fraternity laws of the State of Missouri, and that is its present status. Alpha Iota Chapter of the Sigma Pi Fraternity was installed at the Missouri School of Mines on April 29, 1933. The Fraternity was first known as Tan Phi Delta. On February 11, 1907, the eight active members of I au Phi Delta met at the chapter house and changed the name of the organization to Alpha Chapter of the Sigma Pi Fra- ternity of the United States, the changes thereby wrought were by no means as tadical as might appear upon first thought. The circumstances which led to the selection of the name of Sigma Pi and the discarding of that of Tau Phi 1 lelta were most unusual and are probably unprecedented in the annals of fra- ternity affairs. They are, however, entirely too complicated and lengthy for dis- cussion in this extract. Willi the conclusion of the college year at Vincennes in June, 1909, Alpha Chapter became inactive, although the charter was not withdrawn until the year following. The attendance at the college had decreased to a point where it be- came very doubtful if suitable material for a fraternity chapter could longer be found and the more aggressive alumni members quite properly concluded to devote their time and energies to the problems of the national organization rather than to attempt to keep the mother chapter alive amid such unpromising surroundings. my SIGMA PI OFFICERS C H.

As a result, a new chapter, Alpha Delta Zeta of Lambda Chi Alpha, was installed on the campus on April 21, 1917. F rom its very inception as a chapter of Lambda Chi Alpha this group con- tinued the work that enabled them to become associated with a national fra- ternity, and this pioneer spirit has become a tradition in the chapter, T he chapter has contributed a large number of men, many of whom were leaders, to the campus activities, both athletic and scholastic. Lambda Chi Alpha has always been represented in the various varsity sports and this year has the distinction of contributing two varsity captains, one in basketball, the other in track. The rolls of the various honor societies contain the names of many Lambda Chi’s, some of whom were leaders of their groups, and the campus organizations providing services to the school and to the students, have drawn willing workers from the chapter’s ranks. The chapter has an enviable record in intramural competition, always being known to enter a fighting team in any sport. It is distinctive for its exceptional baseball teams, having won the intramural championship for the past three years and promises another winning team this year. In 1930-1931 the chapter won the all athletics intramural trophy, in addition to the baseball championship. The chapter has always ranked high in scholarship and has twice won the Tau Beta Pi Scholarship Trophy. Lambda Chi Alpha presents a well rounded history, and with its present strength of nineteen members and eight pledges it bids fair to continue that movement started on September 13, 1913, which has placed Lambda Chi Alpha’s name among the foremost of the campus organizations.

It is a national collegiate fraternity which affords its members all the advantages of fraternal life while in school, and perpetuates that spirit of brotherhood beyond college days by virtue of a common interest in the profession of engineering. The chapter is governed locally by an elected group of officers taken from its active membership. This gives the young Triangle man an opportunity to develop his executive ability while an undergraduate, thereby supplementing his technical training to the extent of making him familiar with business and management. There exists a national administrative group of alumni, who keep in very close touch with all the chapters and help them in an advisory capacity. Each chapter also has a group of honorary members upon whom it depends for advice in its more difficult problems. The honorary members of the Missouri Mines chapter are: Professor Carlton, of the Civil Engineering Department; Professor Walsh, of the Metallurgy Department, and Professor Dodd, of the Ceramics Department. The fraternity was founded at the University of Illinois on April 15th, 1907, by a group of six civil engineering students. There are now fifteen chapters of Triangle, located at the following universities: Illinois, Purdue, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Cincinnati, Iowa, Minnesota, Armour Institute of Tech- nology, Michigan, Kansas, Missouri School of Mines, Pennsylvania State College and South Dakota School of Mines. These schools are representative among the outstanding engineering institutions of the United States. Triangle Fraternity has grown out of the small nucleus of six junior civil engineering students who found that they had sufficient interests in common to form a club and live together during their senior year at Illinois University. There are now over two thousand Triangle men who have received their engi- neering degrees and most of whom are now following the engineering profession. This chapter of Triangle was installed on December 10, 1927. Before then the organization constituted the Grubstaker Club, one of the older local clubs, founded September 15, 1902. It is the only professional fraternity on the campus that maintains a chapter house, and in addition offers all the advantages of a social fraternity. ( 92 ) TRIANGLE OFFICERS J, P.

Father S. P. Stocking, the local pastor, proposed the idea and promised to assist in financing it if a sufficient number of independent Catholic students could be found to make it practical. Hie fraternity was formally organized on September 12, 1925, with seven charter members and eleven pledges. The charter members were : Bennet R. 1 hompson 26, Bernard A. Costello ' 26, John K. Weber 27, Ameda V. Peugnet ' 27, Roy J. Gunther ' 27, Paul A, Hallasey ? 28, and J, Hugh Tobin ' 28. A constitution was drawn up by the members of the organization, and the approval of the faculty and of the Senior Council of the Missouri School of Mines was secured in the fall of that year. In December of the same year the fraternity was incorporated under the laws of Missouri as an educational, religious, fraternal, and charitable organization. in January, 1926, the first pledges were initiated and the purchase of a home was considered. After looking over the available properties in town, the members purchased the beautiful and spacious home and grounds which the fraternity now occupies. The fraternity chose for its patron, His Eminence, Desire Cardinal Merrier, Archbishop of Malines and Primate of Belgium, because of his prominence as a Catholic Churchman, philosopher and educator, and because of his patriotism in defense of his country during the World War. He seemed the highest ideal for Catholic students to whom membership in the Merrier Fraternity is limited. The list of honorary members of the Merrier Fraternity includes Mr. Luke E. Hart, St. Louis; Mr. J. K, Walsh, St. Louis; Mr, R, P, Cummins, Jefferson City; Father C Ik Paris, St. Louis, and Father j. B. Little, Sullivan, Mo. ( 94 ) MERCIER OFFICERS H. J. Haffner President A.

Election to the board is possible only for those who have done their work to the entire satisfaction of the board. Tryouts are usually taken trom the sophomore class. This is due to the fact that much of the work to be done requires a working knowledge of the campus, and a freshman can haidh e expected to have this, hence it is impossible for him to do the work satistactouly. The hoard elects the Editor and Business Manager for the succeeding year, and they in turn appoint the other officers to the respective positions. It is the constant aim of the Rollamo Board to give to the student body an annual that will represent a true cross-section of the school activities toi t a year There are only two methods of doing this, and they are by the use ) pictures or printed material. In the 1935 Rollamo we have tried to combine these two methods in order that there might be a happy medium between them, and in this manner develop a balanced book. We hope that you will enjoy this, the 1935 Rollamo, as much tod.u as « u will in the years to come. (103) Me Dill Hoyt MISSOURI MINER STAFF W. H, McDill Editor-in-Chief M- K.

UNIT In accordance with the provision of the National Defense Act of 1920, the War Department maintains at the Missouri School of Mines an Engineer Unit ot the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps. The Officers Reserve Corps is a vitally important element of our national defense as it is expected to furnish the mils oi the officers required in the event of war. The principal source of officers ol the reserve corps for all future years is the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps, loday many of our universities are the strongholds of the R. O. T. C. The K. O. T. C, division includes a basic course, covering two years, and an advanced course covering two years. Every student physically fit must receive two years ' limning in the basic Course of Military Science and Tactics prior to graduation. I he basic Course is designed to give the students in the freshman and sophomore classes instruction in the fundamentals of military training as applied to engineer troops. This instruction includes military history and policy, organization ot tit army, military discipline, drill and command, rifle marksmanship, map reading, sketching, and combat principles. One-third of the time devoted to military training during the lirst two years is given to outside work in drill and command and engineering practice. The object of the Advanced Course is to quality men for a commission in the Engineer Section of the Officers’ Reserve Corps. I hey receive instruction in explosives and demolitions, bridges, field fortifications, combat training, and military law and hstory. One-fifth of the time is devoted to engineering operations and drill outside the classroom. Aside tiom the puiely military value ot the instruction an effort is made to develop m the student an appreciation of promptness, neatness of person, and respect tor constituted authority and his responsibilities of leadership. The R. O. T. C. I nil is organized as an engineer battalion of four companies and a band. The cadet officers, and non-commissioned officers above the rank of corporal, are selected from the members of the Advanced Course. Officers and non-com- missioned officers are chosen on the basis of individual efficiency and merit. Lach year the unit is inspected by a ranking army officer and it has been highly commended on its training and discipline. Irrespective of any military service which these men may render in the future, this military training will be of personal value to them in their industrial or professional careers. ( 116 ) THE ADVANCED CORPS The Advanced Corps is composed of Juniors and Seniors who have com- pleted the two-year Basic Course in Military Science and Tactics and, having demonstrated outstanding ability and interest in the work, have been selected bv the Director of the Missouri School of Mines and the Professor of Militaiv Science to continue their training. The object of the Advanced Corps is to qualify men for a commission in the Officers Reserve Corps. A student desiting to lake advanced training must agree that he will devote five hours per week to the military training prescribed until he completes the advanced course m the Engineer R. O. T. C. Also he must attend a training camp for six weeks before receiving a commission. The advanced course students are equipped with regulation officer’s uniform and they receive compensation during the period of the advanced training. The advanced training includes instructions m subjects of a technical nature and of a general educational value such as explosives and demolitions, roads, bridges, law, and history. The responsibilities as a cat et officer develop the student’s capacity for leadership and his ability to handle men. The advanced students attend the Sixth Corps Area camp at Fort Kdey, Kansas. Upon graduation the student is commissioned by the President of the United States as a Second Lieutenant in the Engineer Officers ' Reserve Corps. 017 ) THE MILITARY BALL On Saturday night, behruary 2nd, Jackling Gym, decorated in modified splendor, was the scene of the second annual Military Hall given by the Officers C lub of the Advanced Corps. I he decorations were fully in accordance with the propriety of the momentous occasion. The streamers which imitated a huge dome over the dance floor were red and white, the colors of the Engineer Units; while at one end, in order to further add to the occasion, was the one-pound gun and the machine gun. I he platform for the coronation was sparkling white with the National Colors and the Battalion Colors furnishing a very fitting and appropriate background. The music for the ball was furnished by Walter Berger and his orchestra. At the stroke of eleven, with the blare of trumpets and martial strains, the members of the Advanced Corps marched in with their dates, halting on either side of the center of the floor. Then marching through the files of officers and dates, and under arched sabers, came the Battalion Maid of Honor, Miss Dorothy ( lark, of Sedalia, Missouri, Following were the Misses Imogene Hinsch and Clel la Crews, the Company Maids of Honor, and the Staff Maid of Honor, Miss Mauri ne Walsh, and last, but by no means least, came lovely and charming Miss Echehneier, Queen of the Balk Upon reaching the platform she was presented with a beautiful bouquet, symbolizing her power to reign over her loyal and willing subjects.

PAT ' S The return of that jovial and genial character, St. Pat, for his twentieth visit, was greeted by a gay and carefree throng. The celebration started gathering momentum vyttli Lhe arrival of the many beautiful dales who were to adorn our campus during the ensuing three days of festivities. The first means of getting the occasion started were the Open House dances. The first dance was given at Jackling Gym with the Independents as hosts. From this dance the gay throng was forced to divide its time between the I i Kappa Alpha dance at their Chapter House and a joint dance given at the 1 lerce I ennant I avern by the Lambda Chi’s, Triangles, and Mercicrs. After a slight intermission the Kappa Mgs and ,h. Sigma Pi’s resumed activities with their dance ending the first evening of the celebration. Then came the arrival of that jovial character. St Pat. W ith his entotirage he was ushered to Parker Hall, where, with fitting eloquence, he delivered his address h 1 knighted those of his loyal subjects who had faithfully struggled through the halls ut learning for the preceding four years. The shadows of night brought forth the long awaited costume balk Here in Jackling Gym now a palace of wonderland, to the scintillating strains of Henry Busse and his orchestra the merrymakers were swept into a maze.

It is the annual of the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, and as such reflects the merits and demerits of this school. A good book boosts your school. The Rollamo is published by your fellow students, aided, in a measure, by the adver- tisers in this book. Thus to patronize the advertisers in I he Rollamo is to hack youi own school.

Most of the students were back and ready for action when the freshmen enrolled, but they were sadly disappointed. All the excitement they got they made themselves, for the freshmen ran wild all over town at any time of night undisturbed by the lily bearing sophs. The faculty is turning soft and the sophs are following by donning their lace panties and playing hide and seek, fruit basket-upset with the freshmen. And, so, the ruin of a good tradition and the making of a bunch of sissies for engineers. Then after the fraternities cut each others’ throats for their share of the freshman class and hung as many buttons as the old high pressure would do for them, Coach Grant called for men, or boys, to make him a football team. So instead of getting a lot of gab from the upper classmen they got beat down by those from other schools. + + LIGHT- WATER-POWER MISSOURI GENERAL UTILITIES CO. Rolla.

The St. Pat ' s Board started off with a dance during tire first week of school, and then the fraternities took it over by giving their pledge dances. Then right in the middle of tilings we find a tough freshman. Now, who would have thought anything like this would happen after the faculty stopped the freshman week activities? He wore his sack and showed the boys he could take it, so maybe there is one engineer in the heap after alb JOHN W.

Next we run right into the middle of Homecoming. Many of the old alumni came back to roost or roast as the case may he and we are afraid a good time was had by ad, even if the football team didn’t have such good luck Their luck held out, and when they went to St. Louis the same thing happened We lost Thanksgiving, and everybody leaves Roll a for home, turkey, and the one and only. Only what ? But , when the boys get hack they find the middle third of the coaching staff has taken unto himself a lawfully wedded wife, Horn rumors that have been running about, she is a very pretty blonde school teacher. Oh, well, birds of a feather Wait a minute, we are getting ahead of ourselves. We forgot to make mention of the mid-semester headaches that came out of the raw. Some cele- brated their good grades while others drowned their sorrows over the bad ones, and still others just put on a regular week end. Anyway, this was to be expected, so no one was surprised or apparently displeased, except those with the headaches. Well, as we read on down the program we find that shortly after the Thanksgiving smoke cleared away, a fog arose around here by the starting up of the various Christmas dances, formal and otherwise. Each one of the houses held their dance in succession according to the dates given them. Some were wet, some were dry, some were just damp, and some were just dances. So then we come righ t up to the Christmas let down. That is i f you weren ' t letting down or letting be all year. What we mean to say is that everybody goes home to spend a few days and sit around hoping the family will gel real generous and hand nut something very useful, mainly in the form of checks, so that the best girl ' s family won ' t ask you to buy a new sofa and a load of wood for the fireplace before you go hack to school. Well, since this is supposed to be covering happenings of the school, we will get back to Rolla.

After the quip headaches were all over the school got together and had a good time and a few legal headaches at the Monte Carlo dance sponsored by the St. Fat ' s Board. All the big gamblers gathered and tried to break the bank. We believe that the Board would have been money ahead if they hadn ' t hired the band until intermission, because there were very few people dancing. Everybody was gambling and trying to win a prize for being the luckiest gambler. However, after intermission, when the prizes were auctioned off to the highest bidder, everybody joined in and enjoyed the music.

He can see all he ' s getting. — Blue Gator. Marry in haste and fight at leisure. Some women keep their girlish figure and some double it. It used to be courtesy to let a girl get in the car first. Now it’s a treat. “Modern marriage is like a cafeteria. A man grabs what looks nice to him and pays for it later.” One of the most valuable qualities which the average man possesses is the belief that he is above the average. No woman can make a fool out of a man unless she has co-operation.
