I A l lHl lllllll l GINEER This year marks the first anniversary of the new Philadelphia Textile Institute. It stands significantly prominent in the textile world as a tremendous ad- vancement towards the goal of supplying industry with skilled Textile Engineers. Our school has increased its student body, enlarged its faculty, its buildings, its resources, and has obtained the latest equipment in the field. Along with this increased program, the stu- dents have maintained pace in extra-curricular activi- ties. The official student publication of the Philadelphia Textile Institute, The Textile Engineer , has been an outstanding achievement in this march of progress. Since its inception three years ago, it has increased its staff, its size, and scope. It began as a small four page journal, whose staff consisted of a handful of students. From that time it has grown into a large eight page issue, tripled its staff, and has greatly in- creased its appeal, not only to the students and faculty, but to alumni and other colleges as Well. Today, The Textile Engineer , along with the new school, bears the honorable distinction of being accepted as a leader in its realm. These forward strides are imprints of credit to the founders of our publication, and distinctly so for the staff of the 1949-1950 editions. The Faculty advisor, Dr. Tumbleston, Dean Cox, Director Hayward, members of the faculty, and the entire student body, have all shared in the development of the paper. The Textile Engineer regards this year as being significant, but it also marks the future as the bearer of our continually increasing eminence in the textile world. h 2 W desirable pall vinci Y ry--are groups 01' .inun.q----- ' , toward their own glcfnncauogg A continuation of this type . .

Sllllll Student government has become a real- ity at P.T.l. The past school year has been the first full year for a functioning Student Council, although, the planning and building began some time ago. ln October, 1948, an open meeting was called by William Suther- land, then the editor of our school news- paper, to discuss the possible formation of a Student Council. Attending this meeting were many members of the student body who were interested in devoting their time and efforts to bring student government to P.T.l. The group considered several ap-- proaches to the problem before positive action was taken. It was concluded that an executive committee be elected to meet with the Student Affairs Committee of the faculty to plan a long range policy. The Executive Committee was to report back to the original body their findings and recommendations for final action and ultimate approval. The Exec- utive Committee elected consisted of two lllllll llll men from each class. Chairman: William Sutherland. Seniors: Ted Manheim, Ralph Elwell. luniors: Frank Foulkes, Fred Kern. Sophomores: Charles Dager, H. S. Porter. Freshmen: Arthur McCowan, Norman Shama. On October l9, 1948, this Executive Com- mittee met with Director Hayward and the Faculty Committee to exchange ideas on what the functions and limitations of a Stu- dent Council should be. As an outgrowth of this meeting, a student constitution- com- mittee Was formed to Write an acceptable constitution. Finally, diligence had its reward and a constitution was ready for presentation. Subsequent meetings with the faculty committee and the original student commit- tee resulted in several minor changes. The constitution was then submitted to the entire student body and faculty members for ratifi- cation. The constitution was approved by an overwhelming majority and the various classes proceded to elect representatives on March 2, 1949. L to R-Seated-Charles Dager.
