Zhe Kollamo 1953 The New Era Edition Opportunity T A he engineer is required, and demanded for new designs in all fields — he is needed to harness energy to the water, to the road, and in the sky. The industrial plant of tomorrow will have new concepts of energy which when harnessed will give the worker of today more and more freedom from back-break- ing tasks. Zkeme Zke World Of T A he World of Tomorrow awaits the engineer as never before. Having had the advantage of a splendid administration, a conscien- tious faculty, new and modern buildings and equipment; the engineer goes into a world of wel- come well equipped to meet the demands of tomorrow. Zornomw Industry Contents ADMINISTRATION CLASSES ACTIVITIES SPORTS SOCIAL ' Demands Zke engineer Of Zoday new world awaits us — jet propulsion, atomic energy and its application — new forms of transportation, color television, guided missiles, space ships. For this the engineer is trained at Missouri School of Mines. The years teach much which the days will never know . . . Emerson. C LEARLY these words on wis- dom are exemplified by the splendid administration of the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy. Under the great guidance and equally great leadership of our administra- tion, MSM has become a ' ' Path- finder ' ' in the field of engineer- ing education. Mtmistratm f MISSOURI SCHOOL OF MINES metallurgy Board of Guidepo t to Learning MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT MIDDLEBUSH T APPRECIATE the opportunity given to me by the Rollamo editors to send this mes- sage to the School of Mines and Metallurgy graduates of the Class of 1953, You will soon join a goodly band of M.S.M, alumni and you should be proud of your membership in the alumni association You are leaving our campus at one of the most prosperous periods in its history, I have stated on many occasions in recent years that in my judgement the School of Mines never was stronger in its program of teaching, re- search and service. The State of Missouri has been generous in making these facilities avail- able to you. We shall count on your rendering back to our State and Nation rich dividends upon the investment which has been made in your development and education, FREDRICK A, MIDDLEBUSH, President, University of Missouri. B EING a division of the University of Mis- souri, the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy is governed by the University Board of Curators. The Board of Curators con- sists of nine men appointed by the Governor with the consent of the State Senate, The length of service on the Board is six years with two new men joining the Board every year. In ad- dition to many other duties, the Board recom- mends appropriations for development and maintenance of the School of Mines. The cur- rent expansion program which has occurred in the last few years is truly a tribute to their efforts. The Executive Committee, composed of three members of the Board of Curators, holds monthly meetings for the purpose of auditing claims and handling other matters of immediate concern. Truly, the Board of Curators deserves a well- earned thanks from the student body for their achievements in the development of M.S.M. Page Ten Curators MEMBERS OF BOARD OF CURATORS Mr. James S.

CURTIS L WILSON, Dean of Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, is one of the outstanding figures in the field of engineering today. He graduated from Mon- tana School of Mines in 1920 with a B.S. in Min- ing Engineering, In 1928 he received his Ph.D. from the University of Goettingen in Germany, He was a member of the Montana School of Mines faculty until 1941, when he came to Rolla to assume his present position as Dean. He has been a member of the American In- stitute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers since 1920 and has served on the AIME Board of Directors. He has been chairman of the Min- eral Industry Education Division, and is pres- ently chairman of the St. Louis Section AIME. He is a member of the St. Louis Engineers ' Club, Missouri Society of Professional Engi- neers, and the American Mining Congress, to name but a few of his many organization mem- berships, He is a member of Tau Beta Pi, Phi Kappa Phi, and Sigma Xi honorary fraternities. His social fraternity is Tau Kappa Epsilon. We can be proud to have such a man as Dean of our school. Page Twelve Curtis L. Wilsuu Dean, Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy l) ean ' h a e s id e n ce T HIS 1953 edition of the Rollamo marks another an- nual milestone in the careers of the 1000 students enrolled at Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy. It is safe to say that this milestone is in the direction of progress toward greater accomplishments While athletic victories may not have been as numer- ous as in some previous years, our teams have played hard and their sportsmanship has made us proud of them. In my opinion, the past year has been particularly char- acterized by serious devotion to academic scholarship. It is with great pride that we see the graduating class go forth to places in engineering, joining the already large group of M.S M Alumni who have distinguished them- selves and reflecting credit upon their alma mater. Our congratulations and best wishes go to our graduates along with the hope that they may continue their contacts with Alumni and the Faculty of Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy. I wish to thank the Rollamo for this oppor- tunity to speak to you CURTIS L WILSON, Dean CURTIS L.

The department ' s fame has been spread throughout the world by stu- dents in a variety of curricula. This includes; Mining Engineering, which is composed of Metal Mining, Coal Mining, and Mining Eco- nomics; Mining Geology, which consists of Metal Mining and Petroleum; and Petroleum Engineering, The completion of the remodeling and build- ing program this past fall, has greatly increased the efficiency of the department. This program includes: building a new wing between the old Mechanical Hall and the old Mining Building and remodeling the Mechanical Hall into the new Mining Department, Also the old Mining Building has been reconverted into the Petrol- eum Engineering Department, A full-scale ex- perimental mine aids classroom work. J. DONALD FOBB ESTER Department Chairman Professor of Mining Engineering, 1944, B.S., 1928, Utah; M,S., 192S, Ph D ,, 1935, Cornell, Bruzewski Dotson Taylor Martin Vine Page Seventeen M echanical engineering is that division of the scientific world which includes the generation, transmission, and utilization of mechanical power. These services are the products of research, design, and development. It is the object of the department to give the student a comprehensive training in the fundamentals of mechan- ical engineering which will be of practical use to him in almost any industry of his choosing. The lectures are supported by extensive test and design laboratory prac- tice. The field is obviously too extensive to cover thoroughly in all its divisions in four years. The school ' s curriculum for mechanical engineering students is therefore perhaps more fundamental and less specialized than other engi- neering curricula. This is, in many respects, greatly to the student ' s advantage, as it enables him to choose his option later in his college course or to change divisions later in his professional life to suit the trend of industrial progress and development.

Carlton Hershkawitz Muir G vecker Eshbaugh Roberts Senne Although the Civil Engineering curricula for the first two years includes subjects common to all curriculum, specialization in vari- ous branches of the profession is provided during the junior and senior years. The seat of learning here at M.S.M. is Harris Hall, which was completed in 1940. This building has in it the Hydraulics, Soil Me- chanics, Bacteriology, and Mate- rials Testing labs as well as class- rooms. Though much work is done in the classroom, this work is supplemented with practical work out of doors. Professor J, B. Butler, who has been with the school since 1920, is chairman of the department. Although his chief interest is in hydraulics, he has supervised map making of county roads throughout Missouri in recent years. Other leaders in the de- partment include Professor Carl- ton, structural engineering, and Professor Gevecker, soil mechan- ics expert. With such fine men it is easy to see why the Civils will remain strong. Page Twenty -One M rtall u rgy B u i 1 1 f in g Page Twenty ' Two FACULTY CATHCART.

Here at M.S.M. the metal- urgical engineering student receives a thorough training in the theory and practical application to develop sufficient technique to assure usefulness for the graduate in his chosen profession. The metallurgy curriculum provides a complete training in Process Metallurgy and Physical Metal- lurgy. The theory is supplemented with practical work in the required courses. The department has the equipment available to afford the student every opportunity to further his knowledge. Progress in the metallurgical field has been exten- sive during the last decade. Although small in num- bers as compared to other branches of engineering, the demand for graduate metallurgists is constantly exceeding the supply. Page Twenty-Three WALTER T.

The Chemical Engi- neering Department here at M.S.M. ade- quately prepares the young chemist for any phase of the science he wishes to enter. Just as success in chemical engineering demands a smattering of knowledge in other fields of engineer- ing, success in other fields requires a knowledge of chemistry. The Chemical Engineering Department offers this val- uable instruction by supplementing the curricula of the other departments with advanced chemistry and chemical en- gineering courses. As chairman of the department, Dr, W, T. Schrenk directs the department activities as well as a staff of men who are both brilliant chemists and capable instructors. The department ' s progress, which has been slightly hampered by unfinished rooms in the new building, should know no limits upon completion of the present work which was started at the close of last semester.

S INCE its origin as part of the Physics Department in 1924, electrical engineering has become an increasingly important part of the School of Mines cur- riculum. Along with the ever- broadening use of electricity and its increasing importance to indus- try, the Electrical Engineering De- partment has added courses and revised its policies. The E.E. stu- dent may specialize in one of three fields: power plants and electrical machinery, electronics, or communications. New equipment has been added recently to all three branches. Courses in servo-mechanisms and television are now available. These courses as well as the en- tire field of electricity have un- limited possibilities. Those who are considering E.E. as a future may be assured that this depart- ment, which is one of the best equipped in the country, will keep pace with all developments in the electrical engineering field.

The ceramic in- dustries are those engaged in the production of commercial products from non-metallic, earthy raw materials by fiery operations. The curriculum provides for all of the branches of ceramic engineering. Two basic divisions of ceramics are; (1) the technique, (2) the product. In training the stu- dent for a career in ceramic engineering it is necessary to supplement theoretical classroom procedure with a practical understanding of the basic principles underlying the technique and product, Portland cement, lime, gypsum, glass, enamaled-ware, abrasives, refractories, and clay products are the groups that these techniques and products cover. Of these vari- ous groups, clay products is the most important. The study of clay and its products offers more laboratory work than any other department on the campus, A prospective Ceramic Engineer begins his technique by practical application of his classroom studies with the aid of semi- commercial equipment. The theory on firing and drying, nature of ceramic raw materials, pyrometry, physical properties of ceramic raw materials, no longer remains entirely in the classroom. Special equipment is used to ac- quaint the student with modem methods of in- dustry in developing and improving the tech- nique and product, Since 1898, when ceramic education began in the United States, slightly more than two thousand graduates have gone into this indus- try composed of more than thirty-five thousand plants in the United States, is one of the few schools in the United States that offers de- grees in ceramic engineering. Dr. P, G. Herold, who came to M.S.M, in 1936, heads the Ceramic Department, which is one of the best of its kind in existence. Another im- portant man in this department is Professor T. J. Planje, who came here in 1946, Page Twenty -Nine Humanities SAMUEL H. LLOYD, JR. D parlment Chairman Professor of Economics r 1921, 1946. A.B,, 1918, De Pauw; M S-, 1921, Missouri School of Mines. O F EVER - INCREASING impor- tance in the engineering cur- riculum are those courses under the direction of the Humanities Department. Educators have come to realize that pure technical knowl- edge does not make a good engineer, but rather an intimate mixture of the cultural and technical virtues com- bined, The aim of this department is to complete this missing link in the engineering curriculum. Heading the Humanities and gov- erning its duties is Professor S. H. Lloyd. He has held this position since 1946, and has been one of the chief reasons for the rise of this department on the campus. faculty AUDRAIN, JOHN P., Instructor in English, 1947.

P OSSIBLY the most important department on the campus, with respect to the devel- opment of the engineer, is the Mathematics Department For, it is in this department where the basic fundamentals of the engineering pro- fession are taught. Without a keen knowledge of the subject of math ' , no student could ever hope to develop into an engineering graduate. Initially, the student is brought into contact with fundamentals such as trigonometry and algebra From here he advances into analytical geometry and finally proceeds to match wits with the calculus, both differential and integral. After the calculus, some curricula require cred- its in the Advanced Math courses offered by the department. For example, the electrical en- gineering curriculum requires differential equa- tions, a course related to the solution of engi- neering problems by use of higher math along with the basic principles The brilliant staff, under the direction of Prof Rolfe M, Rankin, has helped produce many outstanding graduates of M.3 M , and will be constantly striving to not only retain this reputation, but to seek to put forth a better, more educational program Mathematics Department FACULTY DALY, DOUGLAS L., Instructor in Mathematics, 1952.

Daly Thomas Page Thirty -Two Mechanics Department Heagler Davis Schaefer Davidson T HE Mechanics Department which is housed in the Old Metallurgy Building is responsi- ble for the teaching of the basic engineer- ing courses at M,S,M. Courses such as Statics, Mechanics of Materials, and Dynamics deal with various force analyses, stress and motion problems, problems a student must grasp if he can expect to be successful in his chosen field. This department has a very complete lab, which provides the student with eye witness demonstrations of stress failure due to tension, compression and torsion on various materials as steel, iron, wood and concrete- Several large testing machines form an integral part of the laboratory which assure very accurate tests with extremely modern equipment. At the beginning of the Fall semester, Prof. Nick Costakos returned to M.S.M. after a leave of absence and assumed the duties as chair- man of this important department. He suc- ceeded Prof, Fred Davidson, who had per- formed a splendid job during his term as acting chairman. FACULTY DAVIDSON, ROBERT F., Assistant Professor of Mechanics, 1046, 1949.

FULLER Department Chairman Professor of Physics, 1947, A.B., 2923, Wabash; A.M., 1930, Ph.D., 1932, Illinois, T HE Physics Department under the direction of its chairman, Dr. H. Q. Fuller, brings to the pros- pective engineer the fundamental concepts of mechanics, fluid flow, light, heat, sound, and elec- tricity These concepts must be acquired before the engineer can proceed to comprehend the advanced theories put forth by his own department. The basic Physics courses taught to all curricula include two semesters of the well-known Physics Lecture, which include discussions and demonstra- tions on all phases of physics theory; also, two semesters of the practical application of the physics theory in the Physics Laboratory, The laboratory course is supplemented by lectures concerning the difficult - to - comprehend Theory of Measurements. This deals with the accuracy of various types of measurements, and result of this accuracy on the final results of tests, problems, and experiments. Also, advanced courses in physics are offered to the student seeking a degree in this subject. Once the student has hurdled the theories and problems presented by the Physics Department, he can be sure he is well on his way toward his goal of graduate engineer.

Jim Gerard , .Ray Skubic Gunther Helm ...Mike Stearman S INCE the year 1907, when the first edition of the Rollamo appeared on our campus, the task of compiling an accurate and at- tractive record of the students ' college activities has become increasingly large with each year. The production of a yearbook has become a work which entails not only the sifting of an ever increasing mountain of material, but also a work which demands from the editor an orig- inal and improved styling. It demands per- sonal expression that is not usually manifested in the engineering world where cold facts and figures are the rule. Page Seventy ' Six Iliillamn Board With these thoughts foremost in mind, Editor fim Goeddel, guided by practical considera- tions of ability and availability, chose a staff of men with whom he could undertake and com- plete, to his satisfaction, this year s edition A1 Burgess, as Business Manager, handled the budget, requisitions, and school forms. Bob Schaefer, Literary Editor, edited material turned in by his staff and organizations. Ralph Hol- locher, Associate Editor, assisted the editor. Organizations Editor Jim Hubeli made contracts for organization pages and aided in the layout of the book As Classes Editor James Gerard collected material on the senior class and undergraduates. Raymond Skubic, Sports Edb tor, handled the sports section. Gunther Helm, Staff Photographer, is responsible for the excel- lent photography. The minutes of the meetings and the plans of the book were kept in order by the Secretary, Mike Stearman, It is the sincere hope ot the 1953 Rollamo Board, their capable advisor, Prof. J. }. lelinek, and the many tryouts, that this edition will prove to be of value to the history of M.S.M.

Exchange Editor Robert C Custer Secretary T HE first student publication appeared on the M.S.M, campus less than twenty years after the opening of the school. This pub- lication called the Notebook was a magazine which was put out at irregular intervals. The students also contributed articles to the Argus of the University of Missouri, In 1914 the first Missouri Miner, a magazine was published and since then it has continued to represent the student body. The Miner has developed from the magazine to the present form which we are all familiar with. The 1952-53 edition of the Miner under its editor and his staff has served the school, stu- dents and faculty in many ways The Miner acts as a means of exchange, informa tion, and entertainment. As in the past, it has been used by those students interested in writing as a means of self-expression Those who work on the paper gain valuable training in publication and business administration By presenting differing points of view on vari- ous subjects of interest to the student, the paper has aided him in formulating his own opinions and acting accordingly. On certain topics the Miner has taken a definite stand. Last year being election year, a poll was taken by the Miner to find out which candidate for President the students favored If a student writes a letter to the editor of the paper and it is of interest to the whole school, the letter is published The Miner takes interest in all matters concerning the welfare of the school. Page Seven ty-Eighl Miner Board Sports were well covered, and the sports page, as usual, proved to be one of the most popular sections of the paper. The activities of the school ' s varsity teams, as well as in the intra- mural sports were well covered. A new article on sports, As I See It , added variety to the sports page. A special edition for St Pat ' s was put out by the Miner. The St, Pat ' s edition covered the social functions and fea- tured pictures and articles on St. Pat, his Queen, and her Court of Love and Beauty. Yes, the paper prospered through an- other bountiful year. Now we turn and look forward to the paper ' s fortieth birthday with the confidence that it will be a successful one. The staff members.

OFFICERS President — George Hargraves Business Manager _ gjy Sipe Secretary-Treasurer Dean Barton Board of Control Helm, Newcomer, Weilzel, Ponciroli T HE Engineers Club, the oldest co-operative club on the Missouri School of Mines cam- pus, has a twofold purpose. First, it serves as an eating establishment where wholesome and appetizing meals can be obtained at a reasonable price due to efficient management and non-profit operating schedules, being strictly set up for the purpose of cutting costs of college expenses. Second, it promotes better student relations by inducing its members to support and participate in the various student organizations and activities. The Engineers Club participates in the full intramural program, fielding top quality teams in whatever sport it engages in. The club showed interest in the campus activities, as was shown by its entry of a float in the annual Page One Hundred Fourteen Engineer’s Club St. Pat’s Float Parade. The sup- port given by the members to the social functions of the campus show the interest which our mem- bers have in campus life. The club is governed by three officers and a Board of Control, consisting of four members. The officers and members of the Board are elected each year on a basis of their ability in management and general all-around ability, popu- larity, and active interest in the Engineers Club. This year ' s offi- cers, as of those officers in past years, have attempted to promote improvements that they felt were desirable and necessary, always striving to obtain economy cou- pled with efficiency. Apparently they have succeeded in reaching this goal, as can be attested by the fact that the Engineers Club has remained one of the top or- ganizations on the Missouri School of Mines campus, both in numbers and in achievements.

In addition to providing good Pag One Hundred Sixteen Tech Cluh nutritious meals at a price within the reach of the student budget the Tech Club also pro- motes fellowship and a spirit of close harmony in its members, as well as encouraging interest in school athletics activities, and intramural sports. Being well represented in most campus organizations, the Tech Club is slowly taking its place among the leaders in intramural sports, being a perennial contender for the all- sports trophy. The Tech Club basketball team annexed the intramural basketball champion- ship after a hard season of compe tition. The Tech Club is definitely one of the Big Four in the outstanding intramural sports program and is a likely contender for the championship. The success of this program lies in the competitive spirit of the club which shows itself whenever a Tech Club team takes the field in intramural competition. The club also encourages mem- bers to participate in varsity sports and it has a number of its members who have lettered in the various varsity sports. Membership to the club is obtained by ap- plication only, subject to the approval of the Board of Control, Socially Tech Club supports the St, Pat ' s celebration by entering a float in the annual St, Pat ' s Float Parade and supporting the vari- ous school social functions. All in all we at Tech Club are proud of our organization of its fellowship, its economical food budget its intra- mural competition and its support of the school activities. Gee t Speed it up!

Varsity Football MINERS 21, Maryville 6 M aryville was the site of the first conference game of the year and also the first victory of the year, A well-balanced offense combined with a tight pass defense gave the guest Miners a well-earned victory. This contest saw the offen- sive fury of the Miners unleashed for the first time with three TD ' s, MINERS 20, Warrensburg 7 The Miners grabbed their second M.I.A.A. win by defeating the War- rensburg Mules at Warrensburg, The Mules, weakened by the lack of prac- tice because of a polio epidemic, were no match for the driving offense of the Silver and Gold, The Miners not only broke through, but kept their improved pass defense. Cape Girardeau 10, MINERS 0 Once more the Indians of Cape Girardeau applied their hex on the M.S.M. gridders. First a field goal, and then a touchdown for insurance gave Cape the edge over Silver and Gold. The Miners fought desperately in an effort to take the lead, but costly fumbles and a determined Cape team proved too much for the Miners. Hampel Cruse W.

Their performance was outstanding de- fensively and they returned eager to show their prowess against the next foe, Washington U, 27, MINERS 6 The eagerness of the Silver and Gold, however, was stifled when in the second game of the young sea- son the Miners fell victim to the Bears from Washington U. This was the 31st game between the two rival squads and the 25th loss far the Miners, The failure to halt the strong aerial attack of the Bruins was the deciding factor of the 27 to 6 setback. Of the nine passes completed by the Bears, three spelled paydirt. The only pleasing sights in a bogged iown Miner offense were the driving shoul- ders of Bill Roemermann, Go, man, go! EUBy does it.

Kirksville 52, MINERS 19 Homecoming at M,$.M, and its cheery highlights were a definite contrast to the gloom of the game with Kirksville s angry Bulldogs. A tense and well- played first half ended with the Miners trailing. From there on, however, it was all Kirks- ville and the M.S.M. gridders rang the curtain down on another gridiron season.

Page One Hundred Twenty-Eight Varsity Basketball L ACKING in height and experience, the Miners started the season poorly by losing their first three games against Harris, Washington University, and Drury by generous margins of 54-67, 50-82, and 55-94. They bounced back in the next two games, however, and although losing both games, they showed that they were capable of playing good ball. In a thrill-packed game with Westminster, the Silver and Gold were edged out by two points for a final score of 62-64. In the following game they surprised a strong McKendree team before bowing, 85 to 88, on the home court. Max Bur- gelt led the strong Miner offensive with 31 points. In their first conference outing against Cape Girardeau, the Miners were overpowered in a rough contest, 55-89. Failure to rebound and a total of 31 fouls against the Miners kept them out of contention throughout the game. After a rest over the Christmas holidays, the Miners came back to lose a close decision with Warrensburg in their second conference game, 75-69. Led by Ray Skubic with 19 points and Max Burgett with 16 points, the Miners rallied to cut a 14-point deficit at halftime to six points before the final whistle. The Miners again showed they were improving with the season, losing to Cape, 78-63. In the previous contest with Cape they were defeated, 58-89. Still with- out a victory, they played Kirksville and re- ceived their tenth defeat at the hands of the Bulldogs by a score of 70-87. The Miners finally broke the ice in a high- scoring contest at lackling Gym by defeating Harris, 70-61, after a ten-game losing streak. The Miners took an early lead of 17 points in the first quarter which Harris could never quite overcome. Burgett led the Miner scoring with 18 points, followed by Brand with 16 in the Miner revenge of the earlier defeat by Harris. Way up there. Drive, Ray, Field goal expert. Urah that hall!

Page One Hundred Twenty-Nine Huffman., Center Murphy, Forward Getting, Guard Burgett, Forward Orrick, Guard Varsity Basketball The Silver and Gold did not enjoy their taste of victory long, however, as they lost their next game, a conference tilt with Maryville, 57-66, Led by Skubic, the Miners outscored their oppo- nents in the final three periods, but could not overtake the first quarter Maryville lead. The following night the Kirksville Bulldogs defeated the Miners, 87-70, at Kirksville. The Bulldogs controlled the floor throughout the third quarter, giving them a 72-46 lead, A fourth quarter rally by the Miners brought the final score to 87-70. Burgett topped the scoring with 15 points. The first opponent to meet the Miners after their return to Tackling Gym was the powerful Washington University team. Backed by a spir- ited cheering section, the Miners held the Bears to a 48-31 halftime score. The Bears came back stronger than ever in the second half, however, clearing the 100 mark and winning, 101-69, Bur- gett again led the Miners with 19 points. The RoJla team made an excellent showing against Concordia in their next home game. Although playing excellent ball, they were no match for the powerful Concordia team and lost, 88-77, Burgett and Skubic led the scoring for M.S.M. against the St, Louis non-conference squad. The next game was with the conference leading Springfield Bears, led by their six-foot- eight center. The Bears started strong and didn ' t slacken their pace as they overran the Miners, 106-67. Burgett and Skubic continued their hitting with 19 and 12 points, respectively. In their last home ga me of the season the Silver and Gold edged out Maryville, 75-73 for their first conference victory. Burgett scored 21 points to lead Rolla in the seesaw battle against Maryville. The lead changed hands seven times throughout the game, but by the fourth quarter the Miners had regained a two- point lead and managed to hold it until the final whistle. The Miner trip to Warrensburg the following week wasn ' t as successful, how- Michois, Forward Koelling, Guard Brands, Center Abendroth, Center Miles, Guard Mallow, Forward Christopher, Center Skubic, Guard Lcmsford, Guard ever, as they went down before the Mules, 76- 62 Although leading at halftime by one point, the Miners failed to keep up the pace in the second half and fell behind Burgett again passed the 2G-point mark, scoring 21. The team then met McfCendree College at Lebanon (111.) and was defeated by the overwhelming score of 105-65. Although they had lost to McKendree earlier in the season by only three points, the Miners were never close in the second contest Skubic led the Miners in scoring with 18 points. The Missouri Miners closed the season at Springfield with the final game of the conference schedule. The Bears cinched first place in the conference by their 85-50 win over M.S.M. This conference defeat also placed Rolla at the bot- tom of the M.LA.A. standings. A final check of the season shows an over- all record of two wins and eighteen losses, and a conference record of one win and eight losses, placing Rolla in the cellar of the MJ.A.A. con- Varsity Basketball ference. Although the record is not an impres- sive one, the team as a whole was. Composed almost entirely of freshmen and sophomores and without any outstanding height and little college experience, the team sent on the floor by Coach Algood always managed to give the fans good basketball. Perhaps the outstanding bright point of the past season was the con- sistent scoring of Max Burgett, who finished high in conference scoring. Despite their many defeats and few victories, the Miners always looked ahead and played to the best of their ability. Not once during the season did they show that they were discouraged of playing or ready to give up. With this spirit to win, the experience gained during the past season, and the return of nearly every player, including Max Burgett and Ray Skubic, who showed out- standing scoring ability, the Miners should en- joy an outstanding season next year.

Indoor Track Meet at Colum- bia, on March 22, started the cinders flying for the Miners, Paced by Jack Humphrey ' s 1 1 points, which was high for the meet, the trackmen from M,S.M + captured a third spot. This was indicative of the mediocre season of 1952, The first dual meet was held March 29. Har- ris Teachers College proved to be an easy vic- tim, the first of three dual meets, to fall beneath the fast-flying shoes of the Miners, Fred Smith led the attack with a first in the 100 and 220- yard dashes, a habit which he continued until the final meet at Maryville, The speed merchants next traveled to West- minster for another dual meet on April 8, It proved a day of gloom for the Miners who came out on the short end of a 95 l 2 to 35 Vi score. The third dual meet, on April 12, was at Springfield where the Miners began their los- ing ways by falling victim to the Bears, 90 2 3 to 43 Vi. Fred Smith again led the Miners, win- ning top honors in both the 100 and 220-yard dashes. On April 19, Southern Illinois University came to meet the Miners on our own ground, The Miners showed their hospitality by con- ceding to the team from Illinois by a 80 to 49 score. Page One Hundred Thirty Two Varsity Track The 26th of April saw Washington become the third consecutive team to whip the Silver and Gold. Once again the opposition came here only to bring along defeat. Finally breaking away from a losing cloud that had followed them for three dual meets, the fired-up Miners of Gale Bullman sped away to an undaunted victory over Drury College. This time the thin-clads piled up 93 1 3 points against the opposition ' s 42 V 2 . Hitting the road once more for their last meet, the Miners traveled to Maryville and the M.I.A.A. Outdoor conference meet. This time the Miners appeared to be a bit outclassed as even Fred Smith lost both of his specialties, gaming a second in the 1 00 and 220-yard dashes. Not to be outdone, however, Fred set a new record in the trials by stepping away the 10 0-yard dash in 9.9 seconds. The year ' s standout as far as track was con- cerned easily rested with Fred Smith. Besides setting a record at Maryville, he raced to a new M.S.M. record by scoring 834 4 points.

Varsity Swimming Team M issouri mines 1952-53 edition of the swimming team proved only mediocre due to sickness and other minor contributions, Juergen Bioess paced the tankmen in total points during the shortened season; while a freshman, John Burnham, trailed not far behind. Burnham was top individual scorer in the intramural competition before donning varsity togs. The Miners season began with a tough Washington U. team here at M.S.M. The Bears proved very capable watermen as they swam away with the victory, 50 to 33. The only bright spot of the occasion was the fine work turned in by the relay team of Rucker, Beverage, Burnham and Bioess. The new record time of 3:53.9 in the 400-yard free style bettered the old mark set in 1949 by two seconds. At St. Louis U. the Miners again were set back, this time by a decisive 64 to 20 score. The Bills were not to be beaten as they surged ahead to stay. The third meet added another loss to the Miner string at Galesburg, Illinois, the home of Knox College. On January 30, however, at Bloomington, Illinois the tank- men displayed their aquatic talents in their first win, a 56 to 28 romp of Illinois Normal. Remaining in their winning ways, the Silver and Gold made it two in a row as the season ended with a win over Brad- ley ' s Braves at Peoria, 56 to 27. Much of the swimming talent was pro- vided by underclassmen who will return next year along with Coach Burr Van Nos- strand. Burr replaced Chet Barnard, who died last October 16, and capably guided the Miners for the remainder of the season. The returning lettermen for the 1954 sea- son will be Padan, Johnson, and Burnham. One Hundred Thirjy Tour Varsity Hifle Team T HE varsity rifle team had one of its best seasons. With Walter Irvin leading the squad with a 282 aver- age the team won six out of seven, John Schemed Scott Johnson and Jerry Cus- tead along with Richard Holland made up the traveling team. This team fin- ished third in the National Inter- collegiate Sectional at Oklahoma A, 6t M. A, M. won the match with M.S.M, just five points behind. Behind was Nebraska University, Uni- versity of Oklahoma and St, Benedict ' s College, Walter Irvin took third place in the individual match with a 281, Three school records were broken during the season, John Schemel fired a 99 kneeling, a 97 standing and a 389x400 match total to set the new rec- ords. The team also attended the Invita- tional Match at the University of Illinois, Here the team placed in the upper third of the 38 teams competing. The team received the sad news that last year ' s coach, Robert Dunn, had been killed in Korea. Sgt, Dunn did much to build up the strength of the team. This year ' s coach was M Sgl, lames E, Roeth of the Military Depart- ment, The rifle team fires the NRA Gallery Course of 10 shots in prone, kneeling and standing, and the Army Gallery Course of 10 shots in prone, sitting, kneeling and standing.

Both Harris Teachers College and Westminster fell victim to the neimen from M.S.M, by scores of 9 to 0 and 5 to 2. The winning streak, however, was interrupted when a scheduled match with Springfield was canceled because of Easter vacation. The winning streak was then halted completely by a strong crew from Southern Illinois University who tripped the Miners by a score of 3 to 4. Three days later the netmen went down to another defeat, this time at the hands of St, Louis U, and by the identical score of their first loss, 3 to 4, With high hopes of capturing a vic- tory the Silver and Gold traveled to St, Louis and a match with Concordia Seminary. Again they met defeat and returned home to lick their wounds from a 5 to 2 setback. The last match of the season went to Drury as the Miners fought a game battle but still met defeat, this time 4 to 2. In the Maryville Outdoor M.LA.A. conference tournament the netmen tied for the third spot and ended the racquet- swishing season. The 1954 edition of Miner netmen will feel greatly the loss of Gene Rice who along with John Miles did yeomen work on the courts. However, the return of Miles, Gray, and Boleski, all of whom are lettermen, provides a bright outlook for the future. Page One Hundred Thirty-Six Varsity Gnlf Team F OR the second successive year, the golf team from M.S.M. dominated its foes in dual meets. Once again lead- ing the Miner team was Kenny Lanning. The only break in a wonderful streak of wins was the M.LA.A. Tournament at Maryville and a dual meet with St. Louis U, here. Although the Miners had beaten each of the teams that participated in the tournament in previous dual meets, they finished in the third spot. Dual meets proved just the meat for the Silver and Gold appetites as they opened the season by soundly trouncing a visiting Harris Teachers team by a decisive 21 to 0 score. Lanning was medalist for the day. The next victim on April 5 was West- minster, who also went the way of the vanquished when they were handed an 18 to 0 setback. Springfield was the sight of the third dual meet, and the Bears gave us the most trouble up to that time. Ready, however, for the occasion M.S,M. captured the match, 11 Vi to 6 Vi, a comfortable margin. On April 16 the Miners scored the low- est total in medal score for either a four- man or a five-man team that has ever been made at M.S.M, The victim by a 10- point margin was Southern Illinois Univer- sity. Principia, St. Louis U. and Drury round- ed out the Miner season with only a tough Billiken squad coming out ahead of the Miners, Mosley, Ferber f Funning, Huffman, McCullough Carroll, Coach Steinmeper.

Intramural Athlete The award for the most Out- standing Intramural Athlete of W52 went to Joe Gray of Sigma Nu Fraternity, Joe was what might well be termed the “spark- plug of his fraternity ' s athletic guests. His hustle and spirit were a major part of the football, volleyball, basketball bo. ring, softball, swimming , track and tennis teams of the fraternity. Second place in the intramural race was a fitting reward for Joe’s efforts . Intramural Softball The come from behind spirit of Theta Kappa Phi once wore proved too much for the con- tenders for the soft ball cham- pionship and they handily de- fended their right to the title.

This meant the third consecutive year for Theta Kap, Intramural T rack Led by a terrific senior class , the cinder men from Theta Kappa Phi nosed out the squad from Sigma Xu to capture for the sec- ond time in as many years the intramural track trophy.

Intramural Horseshoes Dick Basse and Ed Caleaterra combined to give Theta Kappa Phi both a doubles victory and the team championship hi horse- shoes.

Homecoming was picked as the date for the celebration and many alumni from over the years attended the week- end party. The presence of one of the charter members of this chapter was the highlight of Page One Hundred Forty-Six Kappa Alpha Fraternity the event, which was climaxed by winning the Homecoming Decorations Contest sponsored by the I,F.C. The chief improvement in the House decoration and furnishing was the ren ovation of the basement, a project which long needed the attention of the Chapter, Soon after the be- tween semesters holiday ended, the traditional banquet in honor of Robert E, Lee, the spiritual founder of Kappa Alpha, which is noted as a southern fraternity, was served. The spirit of the Old South, from which the ideals of Kappa Alpha are derived, was further boosted when plans for an Old South Costume Ball were made. This dance included all the Kappa Alpha chapters in Missouri, Other events in- cluded the Pledge Dance, promoted by the pledges, the Christmas Dance and, of course, the annual St. Pat ' s celebration.

The fraternity was first known as the Muckers Club, which was founded in 1914. Three years after the founding of the club, Alpha Delta Zeta Chapter of Lamb- da Chi Alpha was chartered. For many years the fraternity was housed at 800 Olive Street, but recently moved to 606 Walnut Street in an- ticipation of construction of the proposed house. Page One Hundred Fifty Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity It is probable that the house would have been completed had not the high cost of materials and the uncertainty of the location of Highway 66 delayed progress. However, it is hoped that in the near future that these difficulties can be surmounted and construction begun. The social season for Lambda Chi Alpha pro- ceeded throughout the year with its usual suc- cess, Homecoming, initiating the series of events, provided a good time far both the mem- bers and the many graduates who returned. Three dances; the Harvest Dance, the Sweet- heart Dance, and the Senior Farewell Dance, along with a gala St. Pat J s celebration provided many good times for the members and their dates. St, Pat ' s this year was especially fine as Lambda Chi had the honor of building the beautiful Queen ' s Float, FIRST ROW: Crosby, VanDusen, Caulharn, Roberson, Stephenson, Higgs, Topel, Emiing.

This year Alpha Kappa Chapter will celebrate its 48th year on the Missouri School of Mines campus, having received its charter in 1905. Through the years the fraternity has been at the top on the campus and this past year has been no exception. Although the chapter lost the scholarship trophy for the first time in four semesters, the scholastic average is still high and the Pikers expect to regain their former standing soon.

Page One Hundred Fifty-Two the chapter did quite well and is expected to do better with the aid of the new initiates. This year, the chapter house, recognized as one of the most beautiful in Rolla, received its share of attention. The exterior was painted, t h e basement study room was re finished, and various other parts of the house were painted and repaired. The 1952-53 social season started with the Pledge Dance held early in October. Shortly following this came one of the best attended homecomings in M.S.M. history. The fraternity entertained alumni with a well planned open house and ban- quet. The next social event was the Winter Formal which is always held before the Christmas holi- days. Starting the new semes- ter, the first Prohibition Ball was held in February. Founders Day was held on March 1 this year with many alumni returning for the ceremonies. To wind up the social life for the year, the Spring Dance was held early in May, shortly after the gala St, Pat ' s celebration which was very successful this year.

Starting with eight charter members, it has grown into one of the largest and most financially sound organiza- tions on the campus. Pag© One Hundred Fifty ' Four Sigma ]Yu Fraternity The men of Sigma Nu gathered many honors for the past year. Among them were first place in the LF.C. Sing and the Homecoming Decora- tions Contest. In intramural athletic competi- tion, additional laurels were obtained through hard training and teamwork. In every athletic event, Sigma Nu teams have contributed to the keenness of rivalry and high competitive spirit in these games. Although we participate actively in athletics, we maintain an average scholastic standing. Considering pledge training, we vigorously en- force study habits that aid in enlarging scholas- tic capacity and in developing the proper in- tellectual attitude. The social life was as full as a Miners can be. The gayer activities of the year began with the Fall Pledge Dance, followed by the big golden anniversary celebrations at Homecom- ing. The Christmas party with the annual Yu- kon par ty, the St. Pat ' s parties, including the Tea Dance featuring the John Cotter Trio, and the Spring Formal rounded out the merry- making.

Of course, it is easy to point to the outstanding events that this chapter has done, or taken part in, such as intramural sports, the Sweetheart Dance, Homecoming, and others; but that is not the full story.

How better could they serve their purpose than to become part of the vast, yet closely knitted together organ- izations of Sigma Phi Epsilon, Since that time, Missouri Gamma Chapter has come a long way. It has, to date, ini- ated 1 26 men, all of whom have been a credit to the fraternity. It has permanent possession of an Interfratemity scholarship cup, an honor shared with only one other fraternity on the cam- pus, It has been twice awarded the scholarship cup of the Grand Chapter for achievement in this field. It has won two summer intramural sports championships and has had one of its members elected to the coveted Fraternity Man of the Year award. The fraternity teaches many things to man. It teaches him habits of good study, for it is the main purp ose of college. It teaches him to speak before his brothers, knowing that they are eager to listen to him. It teaches him tolerance for other ' s ideas, creeds, and opinions. He de- velops a sense of belonging — belonging to one of the greatest brotherhoods of man that ever existed.

The fraternity has been and continues to be H well represented in all of the extracurricular activities on the campus. The members look forward to the change of pace from the strain of scholastic life in the form of events that include the Homecoming Drop-in Party, the annual Gay Nineties Dance, the Tri-Sigma Children ' s Christmas Party , the Chapter Christmas Party (where the value of the gift is enhanced many times by the poetic thoughts accompanying it), the outstanding St- Pat ' s celebration, and our traditional Spring Outing.

During this same period, Theta Kaps have acquired three consecutive intramural all-sports championships, the award made yearly to the organization garnering the most points in the school intramural program. Socially, the men of Mu presented the Fall Pledge Dance, the Christmas Formal, the an- nual Pirates Party and the Spring Formal; not to mention the gala celebrations of both Home- coming and the always terrific St. Pat ' s. However, while the 1952-1953 school year was a success from every viewpoint, the men of Mu will not rest on their past laurels; but hope to be ever striving to not only retain their peak position, but attain new heights in the years yet to come.

It also showed up very well socially. The social events consisted of the Home- coming Dance, the Christmas Formal, the St, Pat J s Celebra- tion, and the annual Spring Formal. The house underwent a thor- ough face-lifting in the fall, giv- ing it a refreshed look. Also, the living room furniture was reupholstered and refinished. All of this labor was supplied by the early return of the mem- bers who gave up part of their vacation to complete the job. The fraternity ' s primary aim is to instill its members with ef- ficient study habits as well as providing them with a well-bal- anced social program which helps to break up the daily rou- tine grind. The chapter boasts of an auxiliary club, which is composed of the Mothers of Theta Xi Club. The headquar- ters is located in St. Louis, Mis- souri.

The club was installed in the national organization of Triangle in December, 1927, Since then, succeeding generations of engineers have come and gone, the majority finding their place in industry, eternally benefiting from the associations, friendships, and experiences.

This was the day on which St. Patrick made his annual trip from the Emerald Isle to Holla. Arriving on the usual hand car at Frisco Station, he was then drawn at the head of the parade of gaily decorated floats to Parker Hall. There, despite the heck- ling of the traditionally noisy seniors, he pro- ceeded to award the trophies to the Beard and Float contest winners and knight the seniors. That evening, Jackling Gym was the scene of the coronation of beautiful Joan Christian as the Queen of Love and Beauty. Surrounded by her Maids, Joan reigned over the holidays for 1953. Following the coronation the annual Cos- tume Ball was held. Saturday afternoon the traditional Sigma Nu Tea Dance provided the festivities, while that night the gym was again the scene of the beau- tiful Formal Dance. The tremendous band of Ray Anthony pro- vided the mellow notes, and provided the most enjoyable St. Pat ' s ever.
