' ' . . . Blaise Pascal 1954 AND TODAY DEDICATION T O Dr. Frederick A. Middlebush we dedi- cate this, the 48th edition of the Rollamo. It is most fitting that the progress edition be dedicated to him, for during his nineteen years as president of the university, he has con- tributed a great deal to its advancement. Pull- ing the school through the Second World War, he has helped to build M.S.M. into one of the highest ranking engineering schools in the country. Now that he is retiring from his posi- tion, we should like to express to him our sin- cerest appreciation for a job well done.

Gay T O HELP the Miner to learn by study, the faculty of M.S.M. has dedicated itself. This advancement in learning is felt not long afterward in the engineering fields as the Miner enters into the world of industry. And what is engineering, but progress? ADMINISTRATION Progress in Admin s t r a t o n at M. S. M. Page Ten Board of Curators T HE Missouri School of Mines and Metal- lurgy is a division of the University of Missouri and is governed, therefore, by the same Board of Curators, This Board is com- posed of nine residents of the state of Missouri appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate. Appointments are for a six- year term, with each member of the Board being eligible for reappointment when his term runs out. Each two years three new members are appointed to the Board. Each year, the members of the Board of Curators appoint three of their number to serve as the Executive Com- mittee for the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy. This committee meets monthly for the purpose of auditing claims and attending to such other business as is given them by the Board of Curators, Dr. Freedrick A. Middlebush, for the past nineteen years president of the University of Missouri, is retiring from the presidency on June 30, 1954. This was made known by Powell B. McHaney, president of the Board of Curators, following a meeting of the Board in St. Louis on January 8. Dr. Middlebush headed the uni- versity through perhaps one of the most trying times of its history with the World War, and the extreme fluctuations of enrollment and the de- mands for the services of the University brought about by this conflict. Under his leadership the University has made outstanding progress. It was during this time that M.S.M. has perhaps made the greatest progress of any period in its history. An example of his constructive policies is the modernization of classrooms and labora- tory facilities. Page Eleven Page Twelve Curtis L.

CURTIS L. WILSON, Dean of Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, is one of the outstanding figures in the field of engineering today, Dean Wilson graduated from Baltimore City College in 1916 and from Montana School of Mines in 1920. After work- ing for a year, he joined the faculty of Mon- tana School of Mines, teaching metallurgy and doing graduate work until 1926, when he went to Europe. In 1928 he received his Ph.D. from the University of Goettingen. He returned to Montana School of Mines as Professor of Metallurgical Engineering. In 1941 he accepted his present position as Dean of M.S.M. and since that time has strove to uphold the high standards of this institution. We of M.S.M. can be justly proud to have such a man as Dean of our school. Pag© Thirteen Vernon Geuecker Assistant Dean D EAN GEVECKER in his first year as Assistant Dean is called upon to perform many services relative to the welfare of the under- graduate student. He is also in charge of student counseling, the scholarship committee, coordination of extracurricular activities, and the presentation of certain scholarships and awards. Graduating seniors are thankful for his excellent work as head of the job placement service. Noel Hubbard Registrar M R. NOEL HUBBARD was appointed Regis- rar of the Missouri School of Mines in 1942, having served as Assistant Regis- trar since 1923. Mr. Hubbard and his efficient office staff offer the sound advice and compe- tent guidance that every individual student needs at some time during his years at M.S.M. Aside from his normal capacities as Registrar, he finds time to take personal interest in the problems of the various students. Page Fourteen Maroin Caldwell Business Manager M ARVIN T. CALDWELL, in his sec- ond year at has more than proven his ability to han- dle the complex matters that confront the business manager and his staff. The duties of the business manager are many and varied; they include the pur- chasing of supplies for maintenance and exercising control over contracts, deeds, and insurance. Earl Randolph Librarian E arl j. Randolph came to m.s.m. in June, 1 946 to take over as head of the Library. Before 1941, Mr. Randolph received a B.S, in chemistry and an A.B. in library science. From 1941 to 1945 he served in the U. S. Army. It was in 1946, after receiving his A.M. in library science, that he came to M.S.M. Having technical train- ing in undergraduate work, he is very familiar with literature in the technical field. Ernest Hendrix Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds E LEVEN years ago M.S.M. employed Mr. Ernest P. Hendrix as an elec- trician. His knowledge in this field earned him the title of Superintend- ent of Buildings and Grounds. Mr. Hen- drix performs all types of duties ranging from skilled electrical work to the job of acting as coordinator between the school and any contractor doing work for the school. He is a key man in the school ' s administrative system. Paget Filleen Ac cor din j to my valculationH . FACULTY BRUZEWSKI, ROBERT F,. Assistant Professor of Mining Engineer- ing, 1947, 1949.

Forrester, has remained one of the foremost depart- ments here on the M.S.M. campus. The Mining Department offers varied courses of study in the three optional fields of Mining Engineering; namely, Mining, Mining Geology, and Petrol- eum Engineering. Classroom work is supplemented by fully equipped laboratories, located in the Mining Building, which gives the student a complete course of study in practical mining problems. In addition to classroom and laboratory facili- ties, the Mining Department provides a full scale experimental mine, in which the students can engage in actual practice. Min i n g E n g in ee r i n g B u i Id i n g Page Seventeen Mechanical Engineering Building Mechanical Engineering Department M echanical engineering is a large field and quite extensive in scope. There are numerous phases of Mechan- ical Engineering such as power plant design, machine design, shop practice, applied me- chanics, refrigeration, air conditioning, etc. The University curriculum for Mechanical Engineer- ing students is perhaps more fundamental and less specialized than other engineering curricu- lum, due to the size and scope of the Mechanical Engineering field. This is, in many respects, greatly to the student ' s advantage, since it en- Page Eighteen New milling machine.

It is the object of the Mechanical Department to give the students a comprehensive training in the fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering. In strong support of the lectures, is an extensive modern laboratory with up-to-date design and experimental equipment. Chase Woodman Young Thorpe Kilpatrick Remington Scofield Schowalter AARON J.

The classes in this department are designed to tie together the principles of pure sciences such as physics and math to practical ad- vanced courses of construction and design taught in higher courses of the students ' curriculum. The mechanics courses are, therefore, the beginning courses in the application of abstract ideas to useful engineering principles which the student will en- counter after graduation. For these reasons every student is required to take the well-known courses, Statics and Mechanics of Materials . Many other curricula on the campus require their students to take Dynamics and Materials Testing Lab . For the most part, these courses involve the solving of struc- tural problems confronting the engineer in the con- struction of almost anything.

Department advanced courses offered to the undergraduate and graduate student, such courses as Advanced Me- chanics of Materials and Materials of Construction, which along with the others prove to be interesting and vital courses. Materials Testing , the only lab course taught by the department, provides an opportunity for students to observe the actual practice of testing concrete, steel, and wood structures for their ability to with- stand tensile, compressive, and shearing stresses. Several large testing machines form the integral part of the lab, this also assures very accurate tests. The importance of the Mechanics Department in an engineering education is obvious, for as long as the curricula of the other departments depend so highly upon it, no one will become an engineer with- out venturing into the Mechanics Department.

In addi- tion to the required courses, the department has many advanced courses in physics to offer. At the present time, the Physics Department is located in Norwood Hall, Due to the large enroll ment in first and semester physics lecture the de- partment holds classes in other buildings on the campus. The department, under the leadership of Dr, Harold Q. Fuller, possesses the necessary capa- bilities to provide the young engineering student with a rigid foundation in this important science, which is essential to all branches of engineerng.

B.A., 1925, Westminister; M.A., 1928, Missouri. E ngineering drawing can well be called the graphic language of the engi- neer. One of the basic requirements of an engineer lies in his ability to convey new ideas. This can be accomplished through a graphic or pictorial representation. Since there is a definite recognized procedure involved in presenting these representations, it is the aim of the department to present the underlying principles concerned in drafting work and at the same time to give enough practical drafting work to affix these principles in the student ' s mind. With this foundation the student should be able to continue into advanced work and be able to do creditable professional drafting work. The department has as its chairman Professor Lloyd C. Christianson, who has been with the school since 1946. The department occupies the entire second floor of the Mining Building, and includes seven laboratory rooms, a blueprint room, and a projection room. The blueprint room includes all the most modern, up-to-dale equipment possible.

GOODHUE will long he remembered by the many students who came within the sphere of his influence while at the School of Mines. As a man he was quiet, conservative, sincere and loyal; as a teacher he was competent, thorough and pre- cise. His life ' s ambition was to instill in the lives of students the highest of ideals and prin- ciples, dedicating his whole life to the training of young men for useful careers in the fields of science. He will be long remembered as a good friend as well as a good instructor. In Memoriam Robert Peabody D R. PEABODY was an educator in the true sense of the word. His genial humor, his pleasant attitude, and his interesting and informative lectures will long be remembered by the students who came into contact with him. Although he was on the M.S.M. faculty for only three semesters his prominent and influence in the Chemical Engineering Department was by no means insignificant. His popularity can be attributed to his ability to present subject matter on the level of the modern day youth. His pri- mary aim was to teach and not merely present information.

This class consists of first and second year basic RO.T.C, students under the direction of cadet officers of the ad- vanced R.O.T.C. unit, and supervised by the army personnel stationed here. Missouri School of Mines, a land grant col- lege, is under the provisions of the Morrill Act, which requires four semesters of basic military training for all non-veteran students. A four semester course in advanced RO.T.C. is offered to those interested after completion of the basic course. The advanced students receive a monthly subsistence allowance from the federal government and upon completion of the course they are qualified to receive a commission as Second Lieutenant in the Officers Reserve Corps. Since 1873, when the organization s activities began, the unit has instructed men in the prin- ciples of leadership, drill, and command; hy- giene and first aid; bridge and road construc- tion; combat intelligence; and other courses too numerous to mention. That this training for leadership is thorough is made evident by view- ing the military records of those who have com- pleted the course. Colonel E. E. Moyers, Professor of Military Science and Tactics, heads a staff of four offi- cers and four enlisted men whose experiences have been interesting and varied. These men are well qualified to teach the various phases of military training. Skirmixhe?-s. Bazooka l n at ruction . tiumu Pag Thirty -Nine r FIRST ROW: McMullin, D.

Pershing Rifles I N THE spring of 1948, it was decided by a group, known as the Detonators, that affilia- tion with a nationwide organization would re-establish interest in a military type organiza- tion. With this in mind, the Detonators applied for a charter from the Pershing Rifles, In the spring of 1 949, they officially became known as Company K of the Seventh Regiment, The Pershing Rifles is a nationwide organiza- tion founded in the name of General John J, Pershing, Although its primary function is to provide a crack drill team for football games, it has many other activities, including movies that are supervised by the Military Department, Column right!

Sancianco Exchange Editor ..James L Els wick Secretary Raymond Stewart T HIS year marks the fortieth anniversary of publication for the Missouri Miner, a campus paper that may truly be called the student ' s own, When the first edi- tion, in magazine form, appeared on the campus in 1914, student re- ception and interest proved so favorable that it was continued to its present evolution as a weekly newspaper. Previous to 1914 an- other magazine, called the Note- book, was put out at irregular intervals as an independent effort to furnish the students with news of campus happenings. The stu- dents also contributed to the Argus of the University of Missouri, which was, at that time, the of- ficial paper. The present-day Miner acts as a medium of news, information, and entertainment. As in the past, it has been used by those students Page Seventy-Four interested in writing as a means of self-expres- sion. Those who work on the paper gain val- uable training in publication, business admin- istration, and advertising. A successful attempt was made this year to give a more complete coverage of all depart- mental, organization, and national news of in- terest to the student body. Active interest and an ability to work together made this year ' s officers and large staff one of the most effective in accomplishing their aims in recent years. A special faculty advisory committee, ap- pointed by Dean Wilson at the Editor ' s request, gave breadth of coverage and information con- cerning departmental research and projects. Sports were well covered, and the sport 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 the intra- mural events, received considerable focus in the Miner. Two special editions were published by this year’s staff: the St. Pat ' s edition and an April Fool ' s paper. The St. Pat ' s edition covered the social functions and featured pictures and arti- cles on St. Pat, his Queen, and her Court of Love and Beauty. The second special edition proved somewhat surprising to the unsuspect- ing reader upon his first glance. The 1953-54 Miner staff deserves honest con- gratulations by the student body for a job well done. We are sure future years will hold many more years as successful as the one that has just passed.

Louis LeBrun T HE actual production of a school annual is a job that cannot be undertaken lightly. To the editor and the men on the staff, the publication of a yearbook represents the com- piling of mountains of material with all its ac- companying loopholes and headaches. To gather all this material, such as group and class pictures, write-ups, etc., there is involved many long hours of hard work and diligent research. Whether or not the venture succeeds depends upon the editor and his selection of a staff. The editor and business manager very carefully selected the remainder of the staff, considering the experience and ability of the man to see his job through. Frank Paladin was chosen Organizations Edi- tor, to make contracts for organization pages and aid in the layout of the book. Allen Ru- dolph, who was the chief assistant to last year ' s Literary Editor, was chosen for the job himself this year, and given a chance to put his experi- ence to work. He and his staff edited all the copy well before the deadlines. It can be seen here that having a man like A1 around takes much of the burden off the shoulders of the Page Seven ty-Six Rollamo Board editor. The sports section was com- piled under the direction of fim Ger- ard, who was also a veteran of the senior staff, having served as Classes Editor last yean The Classes Editor this year, Bob Hanss, had the moun- tainous task of securing portraits of the students in the junior and senior classes, and the activities of each of the seniors, and coordinating these with their pictures. Louis LeBrun, the secretary of the board, assisted Bob by typing all his material, in addition to keeping the minutes of the meet- ings. Ray Pfaff, the Associate Editor, assisted the editor in many ways such as proof reading, cutting sten- cils, printing notices, and compiling faculty copy. The editor of the 1954 Rollamo, Ralph Hollocher, had the job of co- ordinating the work of all his capable assistants, as well as planning the layout of each of the pages and carrying through the theme. To Ray Skubic, the business manager, went the tremendous task of keeping this publication out of the red. Without the help of Gunther Helm, the staff photographer, the 1954 Rollamo could not have been a success. The quantity of photographs supplied by him was more than ample, and the quality of his work was the best of any of the Rollamo photographers of the past. The staff of the 1955 Rol- lamo will find Gunther a hard man to replace. Now that the book has been pub- lished, and the work of this staff is through, it is their sincere hope that they have accomplished what was intended: an annual which will be a constant reminder of your college days spent at the Missouri School of Mines.

The Board is composed of two men from each fraternity and four men from the Independents. The annual St. Pat’s celebration, in honor of the Engineers’ Patron Saint, is an event which has become the climax of the school year for every loyal Miner. This year, Ralph Flanagan provided the music for the four-day extrava- ganza and Miss June Lange was selected as Queen for the festival. A parade of gaily deco- rated floats, knighting ceremonies, a formal ball, and a costume ball rounded out the holi- day activities. FIRST ROW: Godsey, Neal, Ending, Gerard.

The success of this program lies in the com- petitive spirit of the club which shows itself whenever a Tech Club team takes the field in intramural competition.

In every game the Miners were found to be a determined and aggressive team but lacked the necessary height and ex- perience to compete in the fast conference. The Silver and Gold started the season in a good fashion by winning their first three games from Westminister, Wentworth, and Harris by the scores of 72-62, 77-51, and 72-51, respec- tively, Led by the scoring of Tom Nicholson, the Miners had little trouble in defeating these nonconference teams. In a return game with Westminister the Miners were handed their first setback of the season by a score of 47-56. The Miners ' second loss was a heartbreaker as they became the victims of Southwestern Tennessee. Throughout the game the score was very close with the Silver and Gold in the lead most of the time.

The Silver and Gold went back to a .500 per- centage when they traveled to Principia and handed the host team a 65-56 defeat. In their next game the Miners were defeated by Wash- ington U., 50-75. The Bears had an 11 -point margin at the end of the first quarter and stayed well out in front throughout the game. The Miners ' next encounter was with War- rensburg at Jackling Gymnasium. Failing to hold a 41-37 lead going into the fourth quarter cost the M.S.M. quintet a victory; in the last quarter the Mules scored 21 points and came out on top, 66-57. While on the road the Miners lost two more conference games to Maryville and Kirksville by the scores of 60-73 and 55-85.

Williams took a first in the 440 and An- derson took a first in the 880. Warrensburg took top honors for the day while M,S.M. came in fourth. Jack Humphrey was high point man for the season, scoring a total of 68 V 2 points. The track team elected Bob Williams ' Track Man of the Year for the 1953 season. O uvh ! Not quite , Not even close.

Of these eight men, six are freshmen. High point man this year was Jack Burnham, while Robert Bruce, a fresh- man, was not far behind. Bruce came to the School of Mines from Central High School in St. Louis and has proven himself quite an asset to the team. The Miners began their season with Washington University at St. Louis, where they suffered the first defeat of the season, 54 to 30. The outstanding relay team of Burnham, Padan and Zacher started this meet with their first win and when the season had finished they were yet to be defeated. The second meet with Kemper Mili- tary Academy proved to be the reverse of the first with the Miner tankmen win- ning by a score of 59 to 21. The next two meets with Illinois Nor- mal and Wentworth Military Academy gave the Silver and Gold three in a row, with scores of 48 to 36 and 66 to 8. Washington University were our guests for the next meet and left quite an impression in the form of two new pool records. The Bears ' Coffman broke the Individual Medley record with his time of 1:18. The 100-yard Free Style record fell to Rice with a blistering 55.3. The Miners were not be completely out- done as the undefeated relay team broke the school record with a 3:14.6. The Bears went on to win, 54 to 29. The last two meets with St. Louis Uni- versity and the University of Louisville ended in defeats for the Miners. Smile! Go! Heady . . . The Tankmen . Coming down.

Four top shooters from last year ' s crack team were lost via the graduation route. The bulk of this team was made up of Freshmen, many of them getting their first taste of match competition. Scott Johnson and Ray Williamson, both team veterans, maintained the highest averages dur- ing the season. Johnson held an average of 278 300 over the NRA Gallery Course of 10 shots prone, kneeling, and standing. William- son registered an average of 370 400 over the Army Gallery Course of 10 shots prone, sitting, kneeling, and standing. Charles Gockel, Scott Johnson, Charles Ber- ger, Tom Lane, and Ray Williamson made up the traveling team, which traveled to the Univer- sities of Nebraska and Illinois for their Invita- tional Matches. The annual Oklahoma A. and M. trip was dropped in favor of Nebraska. The team played host to Parks Air College of St. Louis for a shoulder-to-shoulder match in Feb- ruary, with Parks College carrying off the match by a scanty two points. All other matches dur- ing the season were Postal Matches with the scores being fired on the home range in the basement of the Military Building. All firing is done with .22 caliber, rimfire rifles on a fifty-foot range. The team is organ- ized as an NRA Rifle Club so that the team members have the benefits of that organization. The team was ably coached during this sea- son by M Sgt. James E. Roeth. This was Sgt. Roeth ' s second year with the team. M Sgt. James Howard also assisted the team quite often. The returning lettermen for the 1955 season will be Tom Lane, Charles Gockel, and Charles Berger. The Sharpshooters. Page One Hundred Thirty-One Varsity Tennis T HE 1954 M.S.M. Tennis Team coached by Ray Morgan had a season ' s record of one win, four losses, and one tie. In the M.I.A.A. Con- ference Tennis Tournament held at Rolla, the Miners finished fourth behind the champion Cape Girardeau team. Opening their season against Iowa State College, the Miners were defeated by the boys from the Big Seven by a score of 6-1. The following week, Drury journeyed to Rolla and handed the Miners their second defeat by a score of 5-2. On April 4, the Miners hit their high for the season with a very decisive win over Harris Teachers College. Playing on the local courts, the Silver and Gold trounced the teachers by an 8-1 score. Traveling to Carbondale, Illinois, for their first road match of the season, the Miners were edged out by the Salukis from Southern Illinois University. For their next meet, they journeyed to Ful- ton and came home with a 3-3 tie with Westminster in a match cut short be- cause of rain. In their last dual meet of the season, the Miners met Washington University on the Bears ' courts. The Washington team, composed mostly of ranking St. Louis area players, easily defeated the Miners by a 7-0 score. The Miners concluded their 1953 sea- son by pulling down fourth place in the conference meet. The Miners scored 7 points as compared to 14 points tallied by the winning Cape Girardeau team. Letter winners for the season included Don Boleski, Charles Saussele, Joe Gray, John Miles, and Geor ge Stoddard. From this quintet, Miles and Saussele will be returning to compose the nu- cleus of the 1954 team. The Net men. Watch it! Dig that smile . Be gentle . Joe and George. Don ' t bite it! Ill kill it! Form ft Page One Hundred Thirty-Two Varsity Golf A LTHOUGH the 1953 Miner golf team failed to match the record of lop-sided wins which the pre- vious year ' s squad rang up during the regular season, they accomplished what the 1952 powerhouse had been unable to do; win the all-important M.I.A.A. title meet at Rolla and so become conference champs for 1953. The opening match of the year was at home and found the Miners coming out second best to a strong Iowa State team which had already played several matches. Drury, however, proved an easy victim to the Lanning, Huffman, Ferber, Crutcher foursome. Ken Lan- ning fired a record-breaking 62, leading the team to a sweep of the first four places. The following weekend, at Carbondale, Southern Illinois University furnished the opposition with the contest resulting in a 6 to 6 tie. Returning home the next day, the Miners met and de- feated Springfield, the contest being finished in a pour- ing rain, and on April 24 at the Crystal Lake Course in St. Louis played St. Louis University to a 6 to 6 tie. Lanning had a 76 to lead all scorers. The two remain- ing dual meets were split with the team sweeping Prin- cipia at home, 12 to 0, and losing to Westminister, 7 V . 2 to 4 2 at Fulton. Shay Huffman Tom Crutcher Crutcher. Lanning, Ferber, Huffman. On May 2 Warrensburg, Spring- field, and Cape Girardeau engaged the Miners on their home course in a conference tune-up battle. The re- sults of this match proved a good forecast of the coming meet as Rolla, Warrensburg, and Springfield fin- ished in that order. The home mar- gin of victory was 19 strokes for 18 holes over Warrensburg. The highlight of the 1953 season was the winning of the conference crown at Rolla on May 8 and 9. With perfect weather favoring the event Kenny Lanning fired rounds of 66 and 68 for a 134 total to break the old record of 137 set by Floyd Watts, another Rolla product, some 15 years earlier. Shay Huffman shot a 68-69 to tie this record. Rolla won the meet by a total team margin of 33 strokes over a good Warrensburg squad which finished second. The Miners thus finished the year with a record of five wins, two ties, and two losses.

T HE most practical acquisition the student can make in college is the art of getting along with people, and of making people like him. In each of the twelve social fra- ternities on the M.S.M. campus, where as many as fifty men live together, the student learns this art, and the many fraternity dances and social events, culminated by St. Pat ' s, aid the Miner in his progress toward social maturity.

Five years later the National Fraternity was organized at the University of Illinois under the capable leadership of its original founders. Its primary purpose is to promote a fraternal society for Lu- theran students at universities and colleges. Stress is placed upon the religious as well as the scholastic and social aspects of college life. Eta Chapter was installed on April 17, 1952 and since that time has been making rapid progress in campus activities. It grew out of a somewhat similar organization, Gamma Delta. Both organizations are now serving the Lutheran students on this campus. The chapter recently acquired a new pastorial advisor, Rev. William Friedricks of Oklahoma. He was in- Uprinff Of fiver, i.

Kappa Alpha Fraternity K APPA ALPHA was founded at Washing- ton College (now Washington and Lee) in 1865. Since that time Kappa Alpha has grown until its 76 active chapters now ex- tend from coast to coast. Although Kappa Alpha was born and nurtured in the south, its 36,000 members are residents of all parts of the nation. It is built on ideas and ideals which are uni- versal in worth and merit. Beta Alpha Chapter of Kappa Alpha Order was established at Missouri School of Mines on April 27, 1903, and in the past fifty-one years its members have built a reputation of which they can well be proud. The chapter house, located at 1311 State Street, underwent a good deal of interior deco- rating this past summer and was also consider- ably enhanced by a gift of new furniture and rugs which were donated to the chapter by the alumni. During the past year the KA ' s took time out from their studies long enough to indulge in a few of the major social activities of the year. Homecoming, the first of these social events, was a marked success, as the KA ' s captured first prize for the best Homecoming decorations for the second consecutive year. Following in their order of occurrence was the Christmas Formal on December 4; the birthday of Robert E. Lee, spiritual founder of the fraternity, on January 19; and the St. Pat ' s celebration on March 19 and 20. The Pledge Class of Beta Alpha was allowed to expend some of its prodigious energy during “Work Week . At this time the pledges accom- plished the task of cleaning the house from top to bottom, washing and waxing the floors, and painting the dining room ceiling. “Work Week , Page One Hundred Forty-Two Kappa Alpha Fraternity which was instituted at Beta Alpha several years ago, is rapidly replac- ing the old forms of hazing in all the major fraternities in the United States. Kappa Alpha has been active in intramural sports during the past year and has also contributed its share of members to the various cam- pus activities and organizations.

The M.S.M. chapter, Beta Chi, was founded November 3, 1903, hav- ing the distinction of being one of the three oldest fraternities on the campus. Highlighting the year was the 50th anniversary celebration at Homecoming when many of our alumni returned to celebrate the founding of the chapter. In its fifty years. Beta Chi has initiated 550 men into its fraternal order, many of whom have become prominent lead- ers in industry, civic affairs, and politics. What then, makes Beta Chi of Kappa Sigma such an outstanding leader on the M.S.M. campus? Here are some of the reasons: Kappa Sig- ma is a perennial power on the intra- mural scene.

It has 144 chapters throughout the United States and Can- ada. The Chapter was originated in 1913 and was then known as the Mucker ' s Club . Alpha Delta Zeta came into being when this club was admitted to Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity in 1917. Since its installment, the Chapter has partici- pated in all school activities. It has made a good showing in the 1953- 1954 intramural sports. The football team made a very good showing and the other teams bowed to very good competition. The social season for Lambda Chi proceeded throughout the year with its usual excellent suc- cess; the Pledge Dance initiating the series of events. Homecoming provided a good time for both members and the many graduates who returned. The Harvest Dance, which the Chap- ter prides itself of being the best social event on the campus, was just that; it preceded the Sweethearts Dance. With St. Pat ' s and the Senior Farewell Dance yet to come, this season promises to be one well worth remembering. The greatest aim of the Chapter this year is to see our new house built. A lot has been pur- chased near the intersection of Pine St. and Highway 66. A corporation is in its early de- velopment and a firm is drawing up the plans. If all goes well the new Chapter House will be completed by next fall. This year Alpha Delta Zeta celebrates thirty- seven years on the M.S.M. campus, of which it feels duly proud.

Sigma N u Fraternity T HE Sigma Nu fraiernily was founded at the Virginia Military Institute at Lexington in 1869, Gamma Xi chapter, introducing so- cial fraternities on the Missouri School of Mines campus, received its charter on January 3, 1 903. Since that time Sigma Nu has evolved into one of the largest and most financially stable organ- izations of its kind. Sigma Nu has constantly strived to provide helpful and stimulating fel- lowship for its members. A commendable rushing program was brought to a successful termination by the pledging of the largest class in the chapter ' s history. This group of pledges were directed in mind and spirit to a sense of intellectual character and social responsibility. Their pledge training also emphasized proper scho- lastic leadership, and social adjustment. Each December Sigma Nu, Sigma Phi Epsi- lon, and Sigma Pi combine forces to stage a Christmas party for the underprivileged chil- dren of Rolla. This year a number were enter- tained. The children were presented with gifts, Christmas stockings, refreshments and enter- tainment. In the past few years Sigma Nu has been one of the top contenders for the intramural crown. This year has been no exception as the Snakes again were outstanding in the intra- mural sports program. Sigma Nu ' s annual Work Week is a pro- gram in which we present our services to the community for a given period of time. This year ' s took place at Boys Town, St. James, Mo. As a result of the social committee of Sigma Nu, many successful parties were given this year at the Snake House . Starting off the so- cial calendar was the Homecoming Party. Next Page One Hundred Fifty it acx Sigma Nu Fraternity was the Pledge Dance, which was given in honor of the pledges. To finish off the year in good form was the Annual Yukon Party, which was, as it annually is, a success.

The fraternity chapter is a family, and its house is, in every sense of the word, a home. We feel that the chapter house is a place where virtue must be the example. The men who live here soon recog- nize that anything less than this goes to make up a losing game. We know that in learning to be- come scholars we are pursuing a positive virtue, that in cultivating the habits of gentlemen we not only ac- quire correct social behavior for our- selves, but also set examples for others who may observe and do like- wise. These in general are the aims and principles of Sigma Phi Epsilon. We have learned that pride in all this virtue is in itself a reward, expand- The Rods. Go man t tjo! Cokesttf The he si! ! Break!

Our aims and principles are not things which are written only to give the impression of a well organized group; they are living, tangible things by which we conduct our everyday liv- ing. They are not the lessons which a few have learned in a short time, but are the things which have come to us from fifty years of existence. Our twelve founders did not recognize all of Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity ' T would like to be a Phi Beta Kappa, a great athlete, and a campus leader.

They come from a group of men striving to live a better life while in college. It is in the chapter house that the men of Sigma Phi Epsilon learn and practice these principles. The Sig Eps are not specialists in any one phase of college life. They are a well- rounded group of men, and a Sig Ep can be found in every extracurricular organization on the campus, both athletic and scholastic. It is here we attempt to live up to the creed of Sigma Phi Epsilon. OFFICERS Fall President Vice-President., Controller , Secretary .. Faculty Adviser.,..

The objects of the fraternity are to promote scholarship, develop the char- acter of its members, and to diffuse culture. It aims to encourage better citizenship, prepare its members to cope with problems of life, and imbue them with an appreciation of life ' s real values. The Alpha Iota Chapter of the Sigma Pi Fra- ternity was established at M.S.M. in May, 1933, evolving from an organization known as the Prospectors Club. The fraternity has been and continues to be 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. Our observation of Founder’s Day this year was an Alumni Dance in St. Louis on February 27. The men of Alpha Iota have wholeheartedly participated in the various organizations on the campus, and many of them have brought honor to the chapter as a result of the capable leader- ship they displayed in the offices to which they were elected. One way in which they dis- played their capabilities this year was by cap- turing a tie for the highest grade point among the campus organizations for the fall semester.

Page One Hundred Fifty-Five Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity T HE ' Traternity for Life has grown from a small nucleus of three chapters in 1899 to well over one hundred active groups throughout the United States today. This rapid growth with a great cross section is definite proof our purposes and ideals are desired by men every- where. On these pages you may see pictures of one chapter of this great organization. They show the faces, home, social activities, and some of the achievements of men who are a small fine unit in the vast member- ship of Tau Kappa Epsilon.

Like every good organization Beta Eta of Teke was successful in a number of com- petitive programs, most of which were intra- murals. But what is as important is the fact that its members were outstanding as individ- uals by holding positions in innumerable cam- pus organizations and activities. The activity schedule at 1107 State Street dur- ing the past school year was highlighted by its event. The French Underground, which has proven to be a campus favorite, came in Feb- ruary. The year ended with the Spring Outing and Barn Dance. Again this is Tau Kappa Epsilon. FIRST ROW: Bruns Lester, Bessey. Padan, Niemeyer, Ellis, Wilkinson, Dorris.

Theta Kappa Phi Fraternity M U CHAPTER of Theta Kappa Phi, a na- tional college fraternity for Catholic men, was founded in 1925 as the Order of Car- dinal Mercier, and was admitted to the national fraternity in 1936. Mu Chapter has known the meaning of prog- ress in this past year. Advancements have been made in practically every phase of our college life. The splendidly remodeled chapter house affords the men with luxuries never be- fore realized at the Theta Kap House. The architect did an excellent job of converting the old house, which was designed for other pur- poses, into the present fraternity house. The improvements have in their entirety proven to be wise decisions; and, as such, have blended well, resulting in increased efficiency in the operation of the chapter house. The lessening of time-consuming tasks and greater conven- iences for all have increased and improved the study hours and living quarters of our house. The future holds additional improvements for the Cow House . Socially, the Theta Kaps held the Pledge Dance, the Christmas Formal, and the Spring Formal. Homecoming, Parent ' s Day, and St. Pat ' s celebrations rounded out the year ' s social program. On the national scene, for the first time in the past four years, Mu Chapter was not the recipi- ent of the First National Efficiency Award. How- ever, the chapter was by no means overlooked on the award scene, as it garnered the Chapter Publication Award for the third time in its four years ' existence, and gained the Honorable Mention for the Efficiency Trophy. We ' re look- ing forward to regaining that trophy this com- ing year. Page One Hundred Filty-Eighl Theta Kappa Phi Fraternity With respect to intramural sports, TKP has been in the thick of the com- petition. While not having achieved gratifying results, the chapter has put forth fine teams in football, bas- ketball, wrestling, boxing, volleyball, bowling, and softball, and all have demonstrated very well the coopera- tion and team spirit that will eventu- ally lead to additions for our trophy case. Certainly 1954 will be remembered by all who were fortunate enough to enjoy the improvements as a year of great progress for Mu Chapter. Nouse officers. New trophy case.

The Alpha Psi Chapter at the Missouri School of Mines was means it is one of the youngest on the campus. Since its installation four years ago, the fraternity has grown into a closely knit organization with a full schedule of intramural sports and social activities. The chapter cap- tured the Intramural Boxing Trophy for the year 1953, which is proudly displayed in the living room. The usual social activities during the school terms include the Homecom- ing Dance, the Pledge Dance, the Christmas Dance, the Valentine Dance, and the Spring Formal. It has also been customary to have married members and their families as guests for Sunday dinners. Initia- tion ceremonies were held for eight new members last February 14, 1954. The Wheels.

The aims of the fraternity are to improve scholastic and social standing among engineering students and among those in in- dustry. The Missouri Mines Chapter was installed in December, 1927. It was formerly known as the Grubstakers Club , the first social organiza- tion on the campus {founded in 1907), Since that time Triangle has taken its place among the leaders here at M.S.M, This chapter also has a wonderful Mother ' s Club. The mothers rate a vote of thanks for all they have done to improve the house. Alumni of this chapter living in St. Louis have been working in close cooperation with the Active Chapter, giving a lot of moral support and needed advice. Socially Triangle had a very successful year. The first event of the year was Homecoming. The inhabitants of The Rock House turned out in force to welcome the returning grads. A fine showing of parents was present for their day , October 24. The opportunity was given them to inspect their sons ' home away from home. The highlight of the whole social season was the Christmas Dance. Everyone ' s spirits were given an additional boost by having the Interfraternity Sing. A big factor in this victory was the song, Hail Triangle , written by our own Bill Paar. Following the Christmas Dance came the St. Valentine ' s Pledge Dance, organ- ized by the pledges themselves. St. Pat ' s and a Spring Dance and Outing rounded out a very highly successful social season. In the intramural sports program Triangle Page One Hundred Sixty-Two Bf ™ EM U Triangle Fraternity took active participation. We entered teams in all events and a good show- ing was made. Triangle possesses that spirit which is invaluable for the success of any organization. With this in mind Triangle is looking forward to the years to come and the improve- ments and accomplishments they may bring. V h ee Is , 8a t u rd ay n ig h t . Go man , go! Now Kinsey says . . .

PAT of 1954 St Pat ' s Celebration O N Wednesday, March 17, the long-awaited St. Pats Holidays finally arrived, and from the first Big Orange that afternoon ' till the last of the die-hards dragged themselves to bed Sunday evening, it was evident to all that this was the best celebration ever Having arrived safely from the Emerald Isle to pay his yearly visit to the school of his choice, St. Pat led his parade in traditional fashion through the streets of Rolla to Parker Hall, where he addressed his loyal followers, and then conferred the honor of knighthood upon his faithful senior subjects. That night at the costume ball, Fred Smith, St. Pat of 1954, crowned lovely June Lange his Queen of Love and Beauty. The many fraternity parties, the dancing to the music of Ralph Flannigan, the Sigma Nu Tea Dance and Saturday afternoon picnics and that tired, partied out feeling on Sunday morn- ing will make the 1954 St. Pat ' s Celebration long remembered and treasured by many a Miner and his date.
