Pratt, .hsislanl Trrasiirrr Ill i i i FOUNDER ' S ADDRESS (From Pratt Institute Record, October, 1899.) Teachers, Scholars, and Friends: I confess to a little embarrassment to decide which of the many things of interest connected with my experiences in the development of this enterprise should command my attention in speaking to you this morning. How shall my child be educated? is such an old question, and has been answered so many times, and in so many ways, since teaching began, that we cannot hope to offer much that is original, but we have wished to furnish facilities for a trial in Brooklyn of the best type of combined academic or high school instruction, with manual training. The idea in this course, which we have named the Technical High School Department, is not to teach the pupils any trade, but to educate them to work patiently, systematically, and constantly in the use of hand, eye and brain. We think such as finish this three years ' course will, by the combined training of all their powers, be able to decide for themselves what life-work they are best calculated to 22 succeed in. Among the elements of value we hope to realize from this course of instruction is an object lesson on the question of industrial or manual training. The rapid development of the Institute led me, in April, to ask our secretary, Mr. F. B. Pratt, and my private secretary, Mr. HefBey, to accompany me in a hasty trip to the Old World, to see, if we could, in what lines its longer experience would serve as a guide for us. We visited twenty leading cities in England, France, Austria, Switzerland, and Germany; studied carefully, saw the workings of many schools; learned how to understand and appreciate reports of our consular agents; and as a result have come home convinced that Pratt Institute was not unnatural in its conception, nor vague in its design ; and while we did not find anything just like it, we did find great activity in endeavoring to educate the people in applied art and in specific trade-schools. We feel that nothing presents so broad a field, or one so full of promise for the American nation, as attention to such things as will tend to educate the people to a knowledge of the artistic as applied to their home life, and to a love of it because they appreciate it. I have reason to believe that in our own Art Department many have been taught this, and also to realize that certain phases of it lie at the foundation of all industrial pursuits; that it ennobles, that it is an element of civilization, and that the essence of good art is to be found, above all things, in honest and good workmanship. In the Department of Domestic Science I am sure many have received that courage which comes from a consciousness of being able to do well some specific thing, and from the feeling that a knowledge of household employment is thoroughly con- sistent with the grace and dignity and true womanliness of every American girl. The aim of this department is to afford women a training in those branches of science and art which pertain not only to good housekeeping but to home-making — to the preparation of clothing, of economical and wholesome foor, and to such knowl- edge of sanitary and hygenic laws as shall tend to secure comfortable and healthy homes at the least expense . The housewife who knows how to manage tlic details of her home has more courage than one who is dependent upon servants, no matter how faithful they may be. She is a better mistress, for she can sympathize with them and appreciate their work when well done. We especially wish to enlarge our facilities in this department, so as to help those families who must live on small incomes to make tlie best disposition of this money in wise purchases, economical use of material, and little waste. One aim of this department is to make the home of the workingman more attractive. In the Department of Mechanical Arts the instruction given should be most valuable and important to every thrifty mechanic. The demand is for a better and better quality of work, and our American artisans must learn that to claim first place in any trade they must be intelligent. They must study, learn to draw 23 k ' m i-;3 I ' ll and read plans, and to know the value of material and why it is used. They must 0 learn to have pride in their work and to love it, and believe in our motto, Be true to your work and your work will be true to you. When men have dealings with money matters in any form they touch human nature in a sensitive spot. There is no one subject in connection with this work upon which I have such peculiar feelings as when a poor man comes to pay his hard earned wages for the education of his child. Instinctively my feeling is to say, Don ' t take the money ; but in my cooler and calmer thoughts, the judgment, formed after long and patient study of human nature, tells me that it is wiser and better for every one to pay a part at least of the cost of this education. To keep the Institute abreast of the opportunity open to it will require constant enlargement. We are in a growing city, full of young life, the center of a great population; we have embarked in a broad and comprehensi e enterprise, and if it fulfills its ideal, each year will make larger and larger demands for construction and maintenance. Vhile living, and having the ability, I shall be glad to do all I can to build up and develop the Institute and to provide as much as possible for the future. The large number of students whom we are able to accommodate will justify us in employing the best talent, and giving full value for any charges made. It should be remembered that in some departments the present cost of material consumed by the pupil is alone equal to the full tuition charged. As for the work of the Library, I have become so much impressed with the far-reaching influence of good books as distributed through a free library that I have been anxious to enlarge our own work in this line. Hence, until we see good reason for doing otherwise, all money received for tuition by the Institute will be devoted to enlarging our present Library, which is free, and in establishing and maintaining branch libraries and reading rooms in different parts of the city as fast as circumstances seem to justify. The need of more room in immediate connection with the Art and Domestic Science Departments, as well as for the Technical High School Department, has led us to make large additions to our present buildings. With these and the changes made in the Mechanic Arts buildings, we have provided something over 20,000 square feet of additional floor space for the use of students for the coming year. We still need a large assembly hall, class rooms and appliances much beyond our present supply, and we hope before another Founder ' s Day that we may be able to realize these expectations. After this hasty review, many things of interest in connection with the work are pressing upon us, but no one thing seems to be so important to undertake as education on the subject of thrift, and to this end we offer the following scheme: The instruction given in the Institute is intended, in part, to enable people to become self-dependent. Pupils are taught some useful work by which they can 24 !i earn money. It seems a natural thing, in carrying out this part of tlie plan, that the next step should be to endeavor to teach them how to save this money ; or in other words, how to make a wise use of it. It is not enough that one be trained so that he can join the ranks of the world ' s workers and become a producer; he needs quite as much to learn habits of economy and thrift in order to make his life a success. During the past ear there have gone out from the Institute more than thirt persons, who, from the instruction received here, are today earning more than the interest on $500,000 invested in government bonds. We wish to help these young people to a knowledge of the proper use and care of this large income. In view of the above, we have been led to contemplate a new and, we believe, a very important step, namely, the establishment of a Savings Department in con- nection with the other work. To the development of this plan and the working out of these problems, it is proposed to form an association to be called Pratt Institute Thrift Association, but for convenience it may be known as The Thrift. The aim of the Association will be to encourage its members to habits of thrift; to help them to become prudent and wise in the use of money and time, by offering them a safe and simple method whereby they can make regular monthly payments for the purpose of accumulating a fund for buying or building their own homes; or for loaning to such persons as want to borrow for this purpose, and to do any and all such things as experience shall prove essential to the accomplishment of these objects. m 25 Carlton F.

The Tr word itsflf implies aetioti — steady, ccintrolled and unfailing, which means much in machines, as we ha e been told, and likewise a great deal in a man ' s life. The man whose actions are controlled and made steady by thoughts of the bigger and more practical things that go to make up life, is un- doubtably going to blaze his way up the path to success, which, as we all know, is not paved with roses. Throughout our entire two years here at Pratt Institute we surely have come to realize that action is necessary and that it is as important to have absolute control over this action as it is to possess the active traits. There is not a doubt that there are many men in this class of 1 23 who came to Pratt Institute in the fall of 1921 and who, after two months ' sta , would gladl}- have returned from whence they came, saying It can ' t be done, had it not been for the many slaps on the back and encouraging words which we received from our instructors. Our first impression of Pratt Institute was work — hard work and plenty of it. This feature of our new life was, of course, very unwelcome and annoying to us at first. After a hard struggle on our part, the first term ended, and it was while enjoy- ing our Christmas acation that we realized how much we had accomplished and the satisfaction which came with this realization more than offset the thoughts of the m JOHN P KO I ' I ' CA.MP 35 li many nights of toil we had spent. It was then that we first appreciated the underlying truth in our Founder ' s words, Be true to your work and your work will be true to you. June came before long and it was then that we indelibly engraved our name m the annals of Pratt by our success on Alumni Day. Those members of the Institute who heretofore were unaware that there was a first year Mechanical Class certainly were apprised of it that day when our banners were flung high and wide and so remained, through our protection, until we saw fit to lower them. Our summer vacation came to a close soon enough and on September 20, 1922, we assembled in the Mechanical Laboratory in a body to receive preliminary instruc- tions as to our second and last year ' s work. There was, however, something lackmg, —the presence of Hugh A. Cox of New Haven, Conn., who seized an opportunity during the summer months of filling a position of importance in the industries. As a class we were very sorry to learn of our loss but we take this opportunity in wish- ing Hughie the success which inevitably comes to a man of his type. Our first day at school was spent in meeting our new second year instructors, but with the close of that day our second year ' s work began in earnest. As the days and weeks rolled by we became more and more acquainted with our instructors and the impressions which they have left with us are, without doubt, valuable and will not easily be forgotten. Surely the hours spent in Mr. Kottcamp ' s classes will always be vi id memories, as his knack of putting the subject over and his rapid fire comptometer calculations will remain with us for many days to come. From Mr. Kottcamp we learned that twice fifty is about one hundred and that unless you can prove your statement, don ' t state it; also that formulae are but the root of all evil unless you know why and whence they come. Mr. Mudge, our sterling instructor, who invariably has a smile for you no matter what the weather or difficulty, will always be remembered by his concrete illustra- tions in the way of straight line drawings. Here is one man who is proud of his home town and admits he belongs to the Volunteer Fire Department. He is also a master of the terpsichorean art, and almost any noon time one can find him causing the ivory spheres much anxiety on the second floor of the Men ' s Club. Little is known of Mr. Goudy, our construction superintendent, as he has little to say as a general thing, but words uttered are words meant with him, and the value received from our construction periods is due wholly to his earnestness of purpose. Mr. Hodge, alias Mr. Radio, admits his latest and most earnest desire is to get Chicago through the air. His hearty co-operation and willingness to help us through our Lab. course will never be forgotten. Mr. Carr taught us a subject called E lectrical Technology and no doubt if Mr. Carr would comment on it, he would say it was like teaching table etiquette to the Mexican army. He stuck to us though and we learned something of electricity in spite of ourselves. Our Mathematics in the form of Analytic Geometry and Calculus was put before us by Mr. Marsh. The outstanding feature of Mr. Marsh ' s class was the fact that we not only learned mathematical fundamentals but were also taught many lessons of manhood and means of combating to a successful end, the life which lies before us. There is not a man in this class of 1923 who does not value very highly 36 this feature of our Math Class and the memories which we take with us from tUo -e philosophical talks will ever be an inspiration as we struggle for success. The many valuable points about tool making and machine work in general were taught us by Mr. Bare, who is hailed by all as an all- ' round good fellow, and who knows his subject. We feel that we know a good deal of it also and Mr. Bare can feel that his efforts to teach us were well spent. Our course in Machine and Tool Design was supervised by Mr. Harper, the talented bass singer of the Faculty Quartette. The latter accomplishment was not discovered about J Ir. Harper until the Mechanical Smoker held early in the fall. Mr. Harper is also a comp(}ser, having written a ballad entitled, And She Lives Down in Our Alley. The impressive trait of Mr. Harper ' s character is that he has a wonderful sense of humor hut is a staunch believer in There ' s a time to work and a time to play. Thus are the impressions our instructors have left with us and as the time draws near for us to depart from our Alma Mater, a feeling of joy mingled with a sense of sadness comes over us: joy from the satisfaction of having successfully passed our two years here and now being given the chance to apply our knowledge in the great game of life; sadness, from the thoughts of leaving our Alma Mater which has grown. during our stay here, to be a part of us. And now as the portals of Pratt Institute close behind us we take this opportunity to thank heartily all of our instructors and all others who have been instrumental in producing the many changes for the better the past two years.

Gillespie Vice President Mr. W. G. Chamberlain Secretary-Treasurer Mr. Joseph F. Coles The Mechanical Engineering Association is composed of Regular Members , all senior students in the Mechanical Engineering Course, and Associate Members, all junior students of the same. One will appreciate better the following short summary of the accomplishments of this Association if they first grasp the fact that the organization is backed by the advice of the Honorary Members, men possessing the vision of the necessary requirements of this course for producing graduates who will not only prove worthy Pratt Men but thorough Men. In this atmosphere the fourth annual organization meeting was held last June. The high aims of the Association were extensively outlined by our course Supervisor, Mr. J. P. Kottcamp. The fufillment of these ideals necessitated first, complete revision of the Constitution and By-Laws, and second the most loyal co-operation of every member. The Association stands for the promotion in every possible way of the educational welfare of its members, and its chief aim is to assist all its members in acquiring knowledge of the art of Public Speaking, thus better fitting them for the business conference of the future. During the Fall Term the Constitution and B -Laws were revised, the organization placed on a definate footing and lb men deli ered talks on various mechanical subjects. The Winter Term not only added 34 men to the list of speakers but also left a record of two very successful and instructive trips: one to the plant of J. H. Villiams Drop Forging Company, and the other through the Brooklyn Navy Yard. One other event this same term was a lecture on Concrete Highways Investigation and Specification by Mr. Boyden of the Portland Cement Company. The lecture, illustrated with lantern slides, was most interesting. The Spring Term, 32 men delivered speeches and trips were taken through the Hell-Gate Power station, Kent A enue Power station, and a three-day trip to the plant of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation and the Portland Cement Company. Summing up this record every senior student gave at least one talk on a mechanical subject in which he had had past experience. The minimum length of talks was ten minutes and the majority of the speeches proved exceptionally educational as well as affording the speaker an ideal opportunity to face men, think aloud and cause others to reason with him. The Speakers with but a few exceptions did not refer to notes but illustrated their talks by drawings on the blackboard, sketches prepared at home, lantern slides, and samples of the product discussed. 54 i; S s A-,,, ' i lectrical tng ineers How oft we saw the sun retire And burn the threshold ot the night; Fall from his ocean lane of hre And sleep beneath his pillar ' d light! How oft the purple skirted robe Of twilight slowly down ' ard drawn As though the slumber of the globe When upon us, mystery of north did dawn. Once upon a time we thought we knew it all. That «as in the da s when we first entered Pratt. Now that we are about to lea e, somehow or other we are filled with the realization of the things we don ' t know. This, however, we are told, is a sure sign that wisdom is beginning to dawn — which, of course, is gratifying. Last year we felt like a gang of farmers entering the Sahara Desert. But what a great difference a few months can make! The first day this Fall was met with ARTHUR I.. COOK 56 greatest confidence in our ability to continue our friendships and realize our renewed ambitions. During the first month or so we worked with real ig(}r, aried occasionally by soccer, basketball and Tuesday afternoon Tealess dances. Before we knew it Thanksgiving had passed and the Christmas vacation was upon us. Traveling bags were in order for those who did not ha e to go too far. The ripping good holida time consisted oi sleeping, eating, and studying math, — mostly sleeping. We were back t) work after New Year ' s with a renewed enthusastic determination to dig into the grind for all we were worth. All went well until January 25 when spring fever hit all cf us hard, all except Ma who was a somnambulist. Ma would go to sleep Monday morning and would wake up during intermission at basketball games, Friday night. According to our time records we have spent a thousand hours more or less, deh- ing into the mysteries of physics, math, juice, and those mechanics problems, finding the stress and strains ( n Tanks, Motors and what-nots balanced on the edge of a roof with a 45-mile an hour gale blowing. Then there were the happy hours we spent in I he mach ' ne shop, keeping Freddy hjoking for those little brown puddles ;md spots en the floor. Our Lab-periods would have been tolerable, but for the aftermath, — the write ups. particularly the mechanical ones requiring i id analvical descriptions, and precise arrangements of preparation data, etc, Ne er will we forget our math! Find the least amount of tin in a tin can and the distance to the moon, etc. At the end of the winter term we were finished by Calculus terminating our study of mathematics. It was said that Fred Clark used to stud ' math all during the spring term just because he lci ed the dx ' s and d s. Manv were the hours we spent in design, where we heard the f ill()wing chest- nut, when I was in Egypt, who wants, to pa their dues? Listen, men — Can I have our attention for a few minutes, fellows? Can anyone get this second problem in juice? ' ou haven ' t turned in your picture for Prattonia yet. ' Besides sleeping, doing our homework, and broadcasting, we designed nullion dollar power plants for ten thousand dollar companies. Under the able guidance of Mr. H. P. Miller our construction experience was thorough and varied, from painting the floor to building switchboards. Who among us will forget the periods in Sleepy Hollow where Mr. Max- Held lulled us to sleep with his soothy tales and descriptions of phase and poly phases. Taking it all in all we ha e had a good time. Who would, if possible, forget the class basketball games and dances where the worries of the day were forgotten? As we go through life let us always remember this moral, Friendship is dearer than life. Are not some of the happiest moments of our lives spent in recounting the past over our pipes with those who ha e come from the past with us? The 57 greatest contentment we will have in the future to reward us for our time spent at Pratt will be the realization of the friendships we have gained and kept and the satisfaction of a task well done. May the memory of the arguments in the bakery, smokers, sports, dances and whatnot ' s be for us a source of joy forever. Self reverence, self knowledge, self control, These three alone lead life to sovereign power, Yet not for power, but to live by the law, Acting the law we live by, without fear. And because right is right, to fallow right, Were wisdom in the scorn of consequence. Tennyson t tliofc ' hi hi difiirc 58 ELECTRICAL ASSOCIATION OFFICERS Senior Brunch J iininr Brunch President J. A. Peterson B. F. Gillespie Vice President WiLLlAM SiMPSON O. Shexdel Sccretiiry-Trensurer J. L. Brown H. j l. HARRINGTON 1 he Electrical Association was formed for a two-fold purpose ; first, to bring about meetings for discussion of technical subjects ; and second, to give every man an opportunity of practice in the presentation of a technical subject to an assembled group. Past experience has shown there is a decided advantage for the technical gradu- ate who has the ability to present his views, in comparison with others, in open dis- cussion, and also presenting new ideas and improvements to a body of executives. Many engineers have failed to put over a certain idea or improvement due to their inability of expressing their views concisely and conclusively before a group of executives. The Electrical Association has tried to fulfill this need bv requesting every mem- ber of the class to present at the meetings, a subject with which he is familiar through previous practical experience. These subjects, prepared and delivered by students, afford invaluable experience, and those who have taken advantage of this oppor- tunity have added greatly to their education while those who did not will probably find the need of it at some later date. In order to impress upon the members the great value of being able to speak before a body of men, this organization secured the services of an experienced in- structor on public speaking, Mr. O. G. Van Campan, who gave an inspiring talk on the value of emphasis and the method of delivering an address. The subjects co ered during the past year have been of a wide and varied nature, some of which were Cables and Splices, Electric Propulsion of Sin ' ps, Radio. Static Condensers, Hydroelectric Generation, and Central Station Work. Owing to the recent rapid development of telephone work and the numerous oppor- tunities in this iiranch of work, it was thought best to have a series of talks given by engineers in this field. The field of the educational films has grown to such an extent as to prove of great value along technical lines, and numerous films of this nature were obtained from different manufacturers, describing tlieir products in detail. (Other fihns ha e been selected and several outside speakers engaged by the program committee as Prattonia goes to press. 59 K ' 1 ALLEN, JOHN DAYTON Peapack, N. J.

The first person to extend his welcome to us was Mr. Allen. He gave us a few pointers on life at the Institute and also how to spend our time to the best advantage while students. His final instructions were, — Study real hard for three hours, then walk around the block. The next person we met was Mr. Bivens, wh o helped to instill in our minds the fundamentals of Chemistry. Under his careful supervision our progress was rapid. His instructions were generally paralleled by practical examples, the favorite being the Dancing Couple. In the Laboratory Mr. Mantell was in charge of the crew. Quite a number of phrases originated here among which Under the Hood, was the most popular. Mr. Mantell also gave us to understand that we were not the discoverers of the Cellulose Graphite Method as he could easily detect this method of analysis. In the few Physical Chemistry lectures, which he gave us, he did his best to make us understand it, but then some people cannot see through some things. .■ LLEN ROGERS 76 During the first few weeks Mr. Ladner discdvered tliat what we knew about mathematics could be put in the eye of a needle. At the end of three months ' time and with patience on the part of Mr. Ladner, we were able to use a log book quite proficiently and knew a bit about Algebra and Trigonometry. Mr. Ladner is quite a popular man among the Chemistry men as anyone who passes his mathematics room at noon time can see. Mr. Hostetter taught us Mechanics, Heat, and Electricity. Some of us knew nothing whatever about these three subjects when we started. His favorite expres- sions Forces right — equal forces left and Use the hight hand rule will long be remembered. In the Machinery Building we learned how to use a shovel, and swing a ham- mer with the correct technique. Mr. Horton had a job teaching us to make molds. but according to John we were the finest bunch he ever swore at. Spring brought quite a surprise; Fred Goodwill, our banker, deserted us for the matrimonial ranks. Fred claims he didn ' t need the wedding prese nt we ga e him ! The only sorrow for the class in general during the our first year was the death of our classmate, Tonkonogy. We shall always remember him as a hard, conscien- tious worker, and a fine fellow. On September 21, 1922, most of the fellows were strutting around with their chests stuck out for then they were classed as second year men. Most of us had heard of instructors who could deliver a large amount of instruc- tion in one hour but after our first class with Mr. Lafferander. we readily conceded him the honor of being the one and only. We found that b his method we could not help but carry away some of his teachings. Mr. Corrie was a wonder when it came to helping us in the tech lab. His gentleness was an inducement to most of the fellows when something was not clear. Then Mr. Corrie ' s method of explaining things was so clear that anyone could see through the benzine ring. From the moment we first entered Dr. Roger ' s Class, we knew we were going to be very good friends. He made Organic Chemistry easy b - telling a story once in a while. This was only one reason for our friendship, but then no one could help but like Doc. The teachings of Mr. Hess in Design were ver - profitable. We liad the time of our lives when we were called upon to criticise the Drying Oven. Most of the ovens were picked apart and thoroughly examined. The ideas were good, only needing development. Thanks to Mr. Hess we now are able to develop them. Mr. Robinson taught us how to file cast iron and run a lathe. He gave us strict instructions to keep all moving parts of the lathe well oiled, but not with tobacco juice. Our time with ] Ir. Hodge was very well spent. .Among other things we learned 77 that the Otto Engine could not run unless the batteries were connected and neither could the steam turbine without steam. We contributed largely to varsity sports, counting amongst our numbers Dunn, Captain of Varsity Basketball ; C. Reynolds, Captain of Varsity Baseball, and others, who were on the two squads. In class sports we took the soccer, ten pin and basket- ball championships. While it is too early to predict the outcome of swimming, we are sure our teams will make a good showing. One of the events which was greatly enjoyed by our class was the Chemistry Alumni Banquet at the Chemists ' Club. It was there we realized what the Pratt spirit is. Now that our t vo years here at Pratt have come to an end, we are indeed sorry to part with so many loyal friends and instructors. We shall always be proud of the fact that We are Pratt men born and when we die we shall be Pratt men dead.

ScHOON MAKER Secretiiry The Vohler Chemical Society, formed eighteen ears ago for the purpose of bringing together in closer harmony the members of Chemistry ' s happy family, is still performing that duty with vigor which like of all good things, improves with age. Another duty of the Association is to instill (not distill) in the heads of the present members, the Budging sons of Bezelius, would-be Wohlers, etc., some ideas of how chemistry applies to the industries and give t?hem the opportunity of hearing specialists talk on their subjects in the field of chemistry thereby (we hope) broadening the student ' s viewpoint and giving him some idea of what he will meet when he goes out into the world. At the first meeting Mr. Hiers of the National Lead Co. lectured on the Uses of Lead, ably supported by a film showing the manufacture of white lead from mine to painter. The first part of January Mr. R. C. Moore, Chief Engineer of the Charles A. Schieren Companv, gave a talk on belting specifications and problems. The talk was illustrated by the film From Hide to Belt. On February first the Kirkman Soap Company gave a showing of their two films on soap making. Ber veen the films Mr. Ross, their chief chemist, talked on soap making. The entertainment for the meeting was furnished by Sviarez and Swan. L C. E., ' 24. who staged a lively boxing bout. At the meeting on March 13, Mr. ] L E. Stewart of the Roessler and Hass- lacher Chemical Company, ga e a talk on electroplating. At later meetings Mr. Barlow, a Pratt graduate, spoke on Essential Oils, and Dr. M. Toch gave an interesting talk on varnish manufacture. The event which capped the climax was the annual beefsteak dinner and show held in April which brought a large number of graduates back and was greatly enjoyed even by the instructors, who laid aside their grave looks and let mirth have its way. 79 SMI ' ii ALLEN, J.

So we set up a temporary state of Government, with Reicli, as President ; Cole as Secretary and Treasurer, and the other officers which school con ention required us to have. Not having single-track minds (you ' ll rind plenty of those taken care of in state institutions), we set out to take a prominent participation in student artivities, with Mr. Burley ' s hint to be broad-minded at heart. With so many diversified student activities taking place almost every day, we ma ha e missed some, but you can take our word for it, we ne ' er heard of any that we missed ! As the chemical classes had a Wholer Societ : the Mechanical Engineers and Electrical Engineers, theirs also; we, not to be outdone, organized ours, the Society for the Pre ention of Dirty Lathes, newly formed and incorporated under the by-laws and constitution of the M. C. Class. At the Athletic Banquet we were on hand to lend encouragement to the applause given the athletes who worked so hard to make our Alma Mater successful. In athletics our record didn ' t reach the pinnacle to which we aspired. Explana- tions at this time being futile, and our pride preventing us from reopening a tender wound, we can repeat that our performances have done credit to the traditions JOHN W. BURLEY 94 handed down to us, as being worthy opponents, not to be taken lii;htl_ , and we take this opportunity to pass on to the new M. C. classes the fighting spirit that never says die. We also take this means of openly thanking our instructors who so patiently and resolutely stro e to gi e us the best that was in them. Contact with an individual or a landmark over a long period of time makes one familiar with its characteristics and peculiarities, so that one ery reluctantly chooses to forget easily. In future years we can bring back happy memories of asso- ciations formed while at the Institute, to act as a comforting solace during that period when circumstances and time force us to take the role of meditator; when, at the climax of an eventful life, comparing the past with the future, the future barred, but the past our own, we close the book of life with that feeling that comes only to those whose labors have not been in vain. .mailed our own bark through uncharted seas, guided by the hand of Destiny, to our chosen port.

TotJS ■M. M ' I ' m ' ill INDUSTRIAL MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, 1924 Once more has Father Time with unerring precision marked the epoch of a school year in his eternal calendar. It seems but a short time ago that we, as strangers from all points of the compass, were attracted to Pratt by a common purpose. Our comforts and discomforts, like and dislikes, of the new and strange environs were soon forgotten in the din of bustling school work. Unlike many institutions where a student has to break a ruling and be called on the mat for it before he can learn the ways of the place, at Pratt the rules, few and simple, were clearly put before us the first da - assembled so that we should not be in the dark as to what we could or could not do. Shortly after the laws and by-laws were unfolded to us we were emerging from the supply room bedecked with every- thing pertaining to education but quite depleted financially. AVork was ready to begin. Time never drags when a man is busy, so it has been with us. You cannot tell what a machine will do until you put a good heavy load on it. This has been the method of our instructors. Task after task was assigned which seemed impossible ; but we were keeping in mind what we came here for. We have swept all barriers aside and have plowed through one year of heavy seas with the loss of but few fellows. True it is that there was never time for anything but study, but there are e.xceptions to every rule as in this case. Out of the class of eighty a sturdy soccer eleven was picked which swept everything before them until the championship series was played. Here, half a dozen games were fought before Chemistr II could be declared the winner. Basketball was e repetition of soccer. The melee was between M. E. I and Chem (2), but as before, we could not be so discourteous to a second year team as to deprive them of an opportunity of grasping a championship or two before leaving our halls. In pool — Oh, well, we just couldn ' t resist the temptation so the champion- ship in that sport was taken. A few days later the Institute Honors were awarded to none other than Our Snyder for individual championship of the school. Varsity teams in both basketball and baseball had a goodly representation of the class. Remember how Underbill played varsity basketball and with dignified calmness stood on the foul line and made us marvel at his abilit ' to ring the basket all through the winter games? In the social life of the Institute we ha e fallen in the customar line of func- 106 tions as ha e other classes. I. J I. E. ' 2i welcomed us into the Institute and into their midst early in the year by an ever memorable smoker to which we reciprocated with an open house at the Men ' s Club. There was also the combined E. E. dance just before Thanksgiving recess which everybody enjoyed. However, what characterizes M. E. ' 24 most, are the social advances made by thti individual members. it is claimed that a larger percentage of the class attend Home Hour than attend our class meetings, and the Tuesda ' afternoon dances — and representatives in front of the art school each day at 12:30 P. M. ( h, B(jy ! Enough said. As we glance back over our doings for the past nine months, whether our feelings are of deep satisfaction or tinged with regret of what we might have accom- plished, we put out the light of this school year and tread forward through a few months ' acation to our final term, of which we entertain the brightest hopes.

We all had that m sterious look that ve still carry to some of the classes. Our troubles were lightened when our worth} ' senior class welcomed us to school life and later to their meetings and social affairs. Our class was called to action at once and we elected our class officers: President Loxgwei.i, Vice President Knelling Treasurer Baker Secretary Maxwell -i w Our first subject was our mysterious Math class where Mr. Davis announced the theories of all the famous mathematicians and why we should not talk after the bell rang. Next followed ] Ir. Lambe introducing the method of saving electrical apparatus from destruction and later needing an associate to keep us in equilibrium. Mr. Taylor appeared on the scene in Mechanics trying to show us how a force and a moment-arm could be made to agree. Next followed Mr. Bivens and the dancing couples, and molecules and hambones, or why the Jones family was! knock ' need. Mr. Harper, in our Descrip-Geom class, tried to teach us how a plane could extend from the moon through the drawing room with red and blue dots on it, but gave it up to Mr. Dunn, who carried us deeper into the subject and showed us where there was such a subject as Descrip-Geom. After all these mysteries had been partly solved, in stepped Mr. Jones to make things more bewildering with his coke burn- ing forge shop or why a forge fire should make a piece of steel lose its temper. With the smell of burning hair as a chip flew from the anvil and alighted on some ambitious Smithy ' s arm, and the pounding of the black Hudson River sand in the foundry under Captain John and Mr. Horton, we progressed rapidly. Someone said this was the reason we had shower baths, for that sand somehow could penetrate organic materials. Studies were forgotten for a while as we all rejoiced at the first class smoker, where laughter Htted as our gifted entertainers participated. FIven through it all we must not forget our athletic events. Our monkey drills each week were a regular thing but some fellews preferred Shiners in boxing class. Our soccer no tt-am, under Captain Nc ins, wurkcd hard as thc were spun-d mi by tin- great Electrical class spirit. We all made a wild dasli to beat Merr Christmas tn our homes and be able to vish the folks a Happ - New Year, as well as refresh our minds for the cominiz term. The winter term now opened and the studies with which ve have become acquainted come flying back. Vith the help of the E. E. classes, the social committee made arrangements for our open house which we must admit was a great success. Although our athletic victories were not many, the other teams had to tight li.ard to wrest the victories from us.

Our torches we Hght at thy beacon of Truth, Deep rooted and firm as the mountain. We cherish thy glor -, which none can surpass, Clustered round with traditions and endearing; And proudest to hail thee are we of the class In Electrical Engineering. Here striving, with comrades, to broaden our sphere And future professions assuring. We ' re laying foundations of friendship sincere, Deep, ardent, and ever enduring. The spirit of Pratt will pervade all our life. And swift, fleeting time as it passes Will witness fruition, mid labor and strife. Of comradeship born in thy classes. With high aspirations, unselfish, sincere. Our sterling instructors, untiring. Imbue us with industry, courage, and cheer, B their zeal and example inspiring. Weary ways we may struggle, but still, in our ears Their counsels abandon us never And bid us strive onward to conquer the years AVith accomplishment born of endea or. Though distant the goal we may seek to obtain. With a courage of endless duration We ' ll forge ever upward, our purpose to gain. On the wings of thy bright inspiration. No luring ambition or glittering gold Can weaken our bonds of affection. Thy sons shall revere thee, and ever will hold All thy virtues in fond recollection. Long live thy traditions, th y honor. thy fame ; We h onor thee, PRATT; we will cherish thy name ! 114 INDUSTRIAL CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, 1924 10 When we look back upon our first days at the Institute, how we realize the limited, O! verv limited amount of knowledge we possessed. There is yet a good deal to learn, ue know, hut with the help of Mr. Allen and Mr. Bivins, what may we not look for? Already immense progress has been made. We know what oxidation and reduction mean; we can balance (and this with no little pride) equations involving these chemical processes. ' e know what sulphuric acid is; we recognize molecules (if they don ' t hit us too hard?) at their first values and we are positive — let Mr. Bivms attest — that 22.4 liters constitute the molecular volume of any gas! A ' e ha e mastered all these small facts and man others, too, but how? ' I he story is as old as a new Ford joke. Cicero never heard of this story; but you have. Senior Chemists; and you will, you who follow in our footsteps. For your benefit, future students, the story treats of dancing couples, couples who have been dancmg together for manv years, doing the light fantastic, in chemical solutions. They never tire; they are, like him who makes them known, of a very persevermg nature. Mr, .Allen upholds the theory that a person cann ot do two things at once. He insists that one cannot sleep during class hours and get the various explanations concerning the subject treated! Mr. Mantell is a little man of big words, denoting authority and sagacity. Verily, we like his wav of saying — when the report on an unknown solution is faulty — Mr. you are condemned for further research. He is also the man who requires that the bottles containing the different solutions, be put back in their proper places! Next comes Mr. Corrie, who supervised our bungling efforts and kept us on the right track, by sheer physical and paternal preponderance ! From chemistry we shifted to mathematics, where Mr. Ladner was more than willing to make clear the hazier points of math. — hut who really knows what 2 and 2 make for chemists? Vith Mr. Ay res we learned the fundamentals of drawing, and under the very able supervision of Mr, Jones we even enjoyed building fires and pounding iron. All of these men we learned to know the first term. The were kind hearted to most of us when it came to report cards. After the Christmas holidays we met Mr. Hostetter and with him, physics. Mr. Horton taught us about foundry methods, while John introduced us to the interior of the cupola. We were first brought in contact with Senior Chemists through the Wohler Societx-, when the - gave us the traditional smoker. The society ha3 been a great benefit to us and we hope that next year we can keep it at the high level it has reached. During the past year we ha e surely added to our store of knowledge and to the joys of life, and it seems as though, the more we add to that store, the more we realize how little we had a year ago. 115 INULSIRIAL CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, 1924 8. 9. 10.

Rosse 121 11 ARCHITECTURE, 1923 Thirty, Sixty, Fort -Hve Tee Square Pushers, we ' re alive, Architects, Architects, Architects. Again the architect ' s battle cry was heard ringing down the corridors of Pratt. September was here at last, and, resting upon the laurels of our first year, we were about to hit our stride for the second lap of our race for knowledge. Practically the whole crowd was back, with more pep than ever, the only tonic being, Stay out- doors as much as possible as put on the market by Mr. Pope. It has been said Fools know the past — wise men look to the future. Never- theless it is interesting to recall the past, and though you, as yet, have not discovered the fact, you are now reading a chronicle of the year ' s happenings in the class of Architecture, 1923. The only excuse that is offered for settting them down here is that the whole world would be poorer if it did not ha e the opportunity to read what happened to such an illustrious group of young men as the class of Architecture, 1923! The places of the few who fell h the wa side were tilled by Bugel, Goldstone, Hammond, Herrerra, Minton, O ' Hanlon, Vitello, and Wierzbuki, who remained with us for the third year because they possessed the rare insight to realize what it would mean to posterity to be known as members of the class of 1923. Also added to our ranks were Arbaizo and Gorman, two neophites who proved well their ability to stand in line with us. We had no sooner brought our drawing b(jards and instruments from their resting places than we decided whether or not Construction or Design beckoned to us. The followers of Design were so numerous that all could not gather upon the proper shore , but all remained true to their rirst love, though in the land on Construction. The construction gang recei ed word to advance their knowledge under the command of Mr. Edminster and Mr. Price, in the design of various types of building construction such as wall bearing, pier construction, steel skeleton, and reinforced concrete and all the necessary ingredients that go with them. Then with a great final charge the battlements of roof truss calculations were besieged. The design gang, fighting the fight with all their might and with the aid of Mr. Guptill. 122 were able to ciinquer Desifin. Mr. Herman directed tlieir attack along the lines of freehand and water color. Mr. Pratt was the chief and reinforced them with Interior Design and Decoration. Mr. Price, chief of the Strength of Materials and iXIathematics division, saw to it that these forces were used against the enemy. Truly we have met the enem and the - are (jurs. As the late Mr. Caesar said, Veni, vidi, vici. (No, Paul, Caesar is not called late because his alarm clock did not go off.) Between battles we found time to choose leaders for the gang. Bill Cooper was re-elected to the presidency, which pro ed to be a job rather than a position. Calla- han was elected vice president and backed Bill up in keeping order. Bishop was elected treasurer and we all take off our hats to him for the way he loosened us from our silver. Dunning was re-elected as the secretary. (Ed, you are to be commended for the minutes that ou never bored us with.) Art Allen was elected to the group and now we have Mr. Perry ' s committee of five. The construction men have continued the Pratt chapter of the American Asso- ciation of Engineers. Every man did his duty by joining. During the year many interest ing and useful lectures were heard, the mam ones being on the subjects of Waterpro(jfing, Manufacture and Use of Steel, Plumbing, Heating and Ventilating, Paints, Specifications, and Mr. Perry ' s never to be forgotten lectures on the History of Art. (Yes, Ketz, specifications are every Tues- day. Bishop is better looking, according to Mr. Edminster, when he is asleep.) We started our social events of the year with our annual smoker to the first year men, and good fellowship abounded. Good doughnut eaters were also present, in which Scotty Lang more than held his own. (The doughnuts were free.) By the time Christmas vacation rolled around every one had enough on the other fellow to hang him or to give him a mock present. All, this includes the instructors, made merrv and had numerous laughs. 1 Ih ffl J _ 123 11 m ALLEN, ARTHUR E.

The speaker was a tail. slim, but promising looking, young man. His ' oice echoed through room 40 in Pratt Institute, where were gathered the future Architectural AVonders, awaiting the entr ' of their Instructor. Through the windows came the sunshine. Through the room came many voices. ' hile, through the door came Mr. Pope. Sounds were hushed. The drop on a cornice could have been heard. Then Mr. Pope explained. The how and where to spend the doll ar, the reason for sharpening pencils, and many other bed-time stories. Thusly we were initiated into the orders of Doric, Ionic. Corinthian and Composite, who keep us awake at night by the thought of our diminishing Capital and we Frieze with the memories of the Cornice. The race was started and we were quickly running out of funds. Thanks to Mr. Morse and his telegraph system we were eaved from the horrible experience of the attic room and starvation menu. A week had passed when it was decided that we needed class representativevs. With the he ' .p of Mr. Cooper we elected in the descending powers of X, Charles Coles, President ; T. B. Nutting. Vice-President ; Howard Barrows, Secretar . and Floyd Baisden, Treasurer. Now SOMEBODY LIED to Mr. Pope, telling him we had too much spare time. Then. Every day and in every way we received more and more work. When the second year smoker came to light we were undecided as to whether we would be able to spare that much time. Did we go? Did we enjoy it? Ob, boy! We now and then take a peep into our first year now past, and the memories that it holds, but not for long, as the future has many surprises for us. We extend our thanks and hearty appreciation to those who so diligcntlv and untiringly devoted their time to our successful first e.ir at Pratt. HOY. PAGE MR. EDMINSTER. 135 ARCHITECTURE, 1 24 1.

One evening not so long ago we had entered the Star Restaurant and Sea Food in Season, to satiate the cravings of our inner men. (This writing editorial!)- in the first person plural becomes, at times, awkward.) At any rate, we could not do justice to the aromatic, or perhaps we should sav, gum arable soup which Pete had set before us, because our thoughts were on tlie writing of a Class History. It was not a pleasing task, for we are inherently a shy and modest class — at least we are shy when dues fall due, which they do have an unpleasant way of doing. You see, we were compelled to own up that our sparkling achievements are unsurpassed in all the annals of Pratt Institute. (That is what we are supposed to say. isn ' t it, as Class Historian?) As we sat there cogitating upon how this wretched business of History writing might be done without fear of our being branded as braggards — lo ! and likewise, behold ! — our task was at once made easier. We felt so unhappy about the deplor- able lot of successors when they would be deprived of our talents that we had sought to drown our sorrows in a flowing bowl of soup. However, Dot McEntee and Norm Kenyon, who were seated at an adjoining table, got to fighting each other, and Norm was sent sprawling against our table, and our bowl of soup flowed too much. Pete said we were creating a disturbance and heaved a pie plate at our hitherto undeniable head — and then the lights went out ! The ears seemed to slip backward with incredible speed to the time when Greece was at the height of its greasiness. And there we could discern, though dimly shrouded by the clouds of time and the reek of ham and eggs over, sitting on the magnificent marble topped tables and coat hooks, our venerable friends Zeus, Venus, Diana, Apollo and many others of the long line of Gregorys we used to call by their first names in our high school daze. The assemblage of these peers, it appears, was for the purpose of deciding which is the greatest class that h as ever infested Pratt. And, children, what do you suppose they all answered. Yes, the General Art Class of 1923! We quote the following more or less well known authorities and will give their addresses upon request. Said Mars, God of War, in a voice which thundered through the restaurant, causing the sea food in season in the window to crawl for shelter beneath each other: The General Art Class of 1923 were the unrivaled athletes of the school. In basketball they were might}- heroes, to the most, and the Varsity Five would dwindle 138 to a paltry tliree without Ball and Rupprecht. They were powerful, too; six-fifths of the interclass wrestling champs belonged with them. That they did not bring home the bacon in soccer and baseball was because they did not particularly care for bacon. Witness the modesty, interrupted ovmg Apollo, which prevented so man of their number from accepting certificates with so wonderful a class. And ha ing been somewhat of a reckless gambler myself, in m da ' , nia 1 say that at the dances they certainly shook a fidget}- slipper, for proof of which sec Peg Schaeffer and Phil Mitchell, leading exponents of sole stirring jazz. Don ' t forget, my dear young fellow, drawled Atlanta, as she drained the dregs from her tumbler of Star ' s Premium Nectar, don ' t forget that their women bra ed our neighbor Neptune ' s icy pool those wintry da s and surpassed all the others in swimming. Need I mention Priscilla Mullen, Ray Alexander, Kay Kar- rick, Gertrude Van Allen or Dot McGinty? X ' erily, bathing suits seemed to be made f(jr them expressly, in spite of Charlie Safford ' s ccmtention that any other than street clothes are a handicap in the water. General Art III, crooned X ' enus, her women are marvels of beauty and graciousness. At the time the pictures were taken for Prattonia, it was found that the camera could not record such loveliness as was theirs. And her young men! Why, they would make Adonis hide his hands in his face. General Art III, sang Orpheus, as he clawed the strings of his harp in env -. One had but to hear Dellana Kimmelhouse execute that tearful ballad, ' The Shouting for Marion McGlue, ' to know that here was a class to move the Palisades to tremble with sobs. Or just to hear Scott relieve himself of his illustrated song hit, ' If I could only tie myself down, ' in which the entire class politely joined in the chorus of ' Oh, if you only could 1 ' Oh, the melodies sent thrilling through the air by our members in the Glee Clubs! What would become of the Women ' s Glee Club without their President, our tiuieful and beautiful Singer? I am sorely pressed to equal such harmon ' on my lyre. Some l Te, said Athena. Oh, the were ery artistic for an art class. I Perry-grinated into the office lately, and the marks I saw on the cards were simply amazing. Even Mr. Skidmore, I remember, on one occasion made this remark, ' Gee whiz, how- I ' d lo e to be the cap ' n of a compain- of men like this! ' The last to speal was Pete. All he could find words for was, Which is Greek for ' You said it, boys! ' And there you have our class History. Who dares dispute the decision of the Gods? It seems strange that so many variously colored minds should blend so harmoniously in the one great painting we have unconsciously produced during the three years of our fellowship. W ' e have the long-haired dreamers, Wright and Wal- leen; the bald-headed dreamer. Case, among us; we have with us, part of the time at least. Graves, the blue-ribbon winner in the tea-hound class ; O.sbornc, supreme among the coffee-chasers, and Tarleton. the lounge-lizard. 139 m ALEXANDER, RAY Brightwaters, L. I., N. Y.

' i NORMAL ART, 1923 f ' ( On September _ ' 3 and 24, 1922, there was great excitement in the town of : ; Brooklyn. The Senior Normal Art Students had arrived and were furiouslj ' busy :_ getting settled in their new domiciles. All was bustle and scurry. Landladies held k out arms of welcome, as they requested room rent in advance, while boardinghouse rf keepers prepared special lobster dinners. j:5, Many have been the joys and man) ha e been the troubles, which have beset ' |:| our path this year. : ' 3 It is certain that not one of us will e er forget the first few days in Water Color class. Mrs. Shaurman ' s little inspirational discourses filled us with an enthusiasm :i which should have brought forth veritable masterpieces. Our medium was a wet , = one, and it was a case of swim or sink. Most of us sank. At recess we wandered ' -: about the room in an endea or to find some one ' s else work worse than ours. This - search generalh ' proved fruitless. But tempus has fugited and we ha e striven man- fully (?) onward until Mrs. Shaurman is justly proud of us. A:i One of the most poignant recollections is joints! Those non-joining joints which : didn ' t, wouldn ' t and couldn ' t be made to join! Mr. Pierce was kept busy with gauze ; ; and cotton, for in all our zeal we sometimes chiseled our own joints by mistake. f However, what might ha e pro en obstacles in the pathway of the weak became our : =; stepping stones. Be it noted that A e surmounted e en the terrible dark ages of the ?; joint period successfully. ■1 Poster class was always a joy. Mr. Watson liked us in spite of the fact that J i we cut up (magazines) quite strenuously. :■; In addition to Dress Design, Decorative Illustration, History of Education, Pottery, Textile Design, History of Art, etc., we have learned how to carve wood in preference to our fingers. Mr. LoefHer and Painful Experience were our instructors in this last subject. When we acquired skill we were introduced to metal work. Mr. LoefBer told us the tragic story of the copper tray which remained forgotten -J in the acid bath until it wasn ' t. Our Friday afternoons were spent in hammering, pounding and trotting from flame to sink with our red-hot masterpieces held gingerly ,, m pincers. Noise? Wow! A score of hammers beat out the Anvil Chorus. If there I ' f were vocal accompaniment, none could hear it. We all prayed that Pratt might be ? : preserved from fire during this period. 152 One of our plcasautest remembrances is our Hallowe ' en costume party for tlie Juniors — bless tbeir li ' l souls! Many members of the Faculty honored us bv their presence. And how pleased we were when they consented to do stunts for our edification! And, wo-o-o, the chills that ran up and do n our spines as we listened to ghost stories in the darkened room. Verily, our life at Pratt has been a busy one. In addition to other things, we have learned the real meaning of the word work, and the truth of the old adage, Still water gathers no moss! E ' en on Saturdays we could not rest. Teaching, pottery, reference folios, exhibitions and courses of study kept us out of mischief. To most of us our Saturday morning classes were a joy, although there were moments of fear and trembling when our Supervisor appeared to hear our presenta- tion. At such times we were fortunate if no one noted our shaking hands and heard our knocking knees. Nevertheless we were good teachers — else why should so many aspiring youthful artists have swarmed to these halls of learning, to benefit by our instruction? AVe must admit, however, that our success as school marms was not attained through our efforts alone. Miss H de never failed to give us kindly information and sympathetic criticism in times of need. And during her illness, June and Peggy strove to keep us at our best. Next September will show whether we can do these things and all the others That teachers evervwhere do everv dav. l!

For one must take the dry bones of fact and stick them together with statistics and other such lively little odds and ends; so as to make the whole thing come to life. This is a class skeleton and verily it is some framework. A Historian must be a member of that modern and unhonored profession of African Golfer. He must roll the bones and roll ' em well. He also belongs to the ancient and honorable society of Pen-Pushers ; that excuse for Neuritis and temperament. He must accept gracefully and without comment such delicate tokens of approval from those whom he has slandered, as cabbages and antique eggs. In after years, it is true, these change to bouquets of sweet smelling flowers ; but they do the poor Historian no good, for he, alas, died in the era of cabbages. So much for the junk dealer ' s rival, the collector of bones. Now for the History. The firsti event of importance was a party given by the second and third year classes to the first year students. We hope that they had a good time. They were fed thoroughly, so the cooks say: and they ought to know. The Kindergarden survived the par ty and are now doing nicely. Parties are good things and most useful in filling up a social vacuum. Hence another. This time it was a Valentine ' agary. The slogan being Halve a heart and find your partner. It also was a great success and as the Historian quaintly hath it, They ate, what time they were not dancing . But times they departed having a goodly warmth within the cockles of their hearts from friendliness and good feeling. And now we come to one of the events of the year. A visit to John Held, Jr. The class, consisting of twenty-five eager damsels, wended their way to New York, shepherded by Miss Clark, to view an exhibition of Mr. Held ' s work. Mr. Held burst in upon the admiring throng, and being a rather shy young man he probably wished that he were elsewhere. A man usually sees triple on such occasions and he thought, no doubt, that there were seventy-five girls instead of merely twenty-five. It was a great treat for us, however, not only to see an exhibition of fine work but meet the artist himself. We will not soon forget it. Thru the kindness of Miss Clarke we were able to meet Miss Messerole, a former student at Pratt and now on the staff of Vogue. It being a thrilling thing in our young lives to see a successful artist, 154 we decided to lionor the occasion by presenting; her with a bouquet of flowers. Our Presenteur was rather fussed as befitted such an event, but she managed to con ey the flowers to Miss Messerole without tripping over her. After a few appropriate words of presentation and a well timed remark on the weather, she retired gracefully to the background and left the field to Our Harriet . These happenings are merely a few of the things that go to make up our class History . There are many little things that occur, which we can ' t put in for lack of space. E ery day in every way our History gets more and more. We belie e this to be a most unique History in that it has no dates. But, you ask politely, what is a History without dates? My little one, we reply, dates are the distinguishing marks of palm trees and not Histories, N ' est Ce Pas? So endeth the tale. CLASS BALLOT Most Talkati e Girl El.

J. 173 DESIGN, 1923 It was a dark and stormy night and soon after my Now I lay me I was under the influence of the great and all powerful god, Morpheus. My subconscious mind immediately became active. It seemed as though the time were 2000 B. C. and I was alone in the center of an unfriendly city in Egypt. I was suddenly attracted by a massive building almost in front of me. I hurried on and entered the huge temple. After buying my ticket for thirty shekels, I was ushered into an- othe: room. On a magnificent throne draped with all the beautiful silks of the orient was seated Tut-ankh-Amen— (W. S. Perry). On either side and in front, reclining on bounteous and multicolored cushions, was the rest of the faculty of Pratt. I was next led through a long, spacious hall to another room and was told to stay there until given further directions. We first became acquainted with one of our instructors — Sheik Petersen, and we soon learned to love ' em all. Before many months our clan congregated and elected our King, Keith Wilson; Lord of the Treasury, Rufus Phillips, and Mistress of the Pen, Helen Tiffany. Then the sand began to fly. In return for an enjoyable afternoon we have our first big festival to the second year people in co-operation with the ancient Society of Architects. True to the times, the decorations were masses upon masses of bobbing balloons. Such cunning, noisy favors and the punch? Well, you tell us, Mr. Petersen. By this time we had learned to collect our thoughts and scratch them on a tablet. But an abundance of anything is not good for a decorator ' s soul, so we got out our camels and set forth on a ten weeks ' trip, only to find that it was sweet to be among our own class. Upon our return we realized that there was a niche in the world for us and that this year we should start preparing and looking for it. So we elected Rufus Phillips as leader of our clan this year ; Helen Wiepert, Lady of the Treasury, and Gertrude Mider, Mistress of the Pen. But before settling down to the staid and steady routine of hard work we welcomed the freshman class into our former ranks in the palace. We all enjoyed a social two hours one Thursday in getting acquainted. Then we started a Rennaisance. We always crashed into class at nearly nine, and how we did work. Once a week. Sphinx Pratt gave us lectures on period styles of furniture. Not satisfied with this, we organized a Monday Afternoon Club in conjunction with the freshmen where we discussed everything but love and theology. Famous speakers of the day honored us with their presence and information. Soon 174 we were greatly depressed to recei e word that our juniors liad beaten us at our (jwn game. They had won two prizes in the lamp contest wliile we were rejoicing over an honorable mention. To quell all bard feelings the)- entertained us ro ' alIy. It wasn ' t long after this that we began our search for a position where we could be true to our A ork and help the other fellow. All too soon we bade our fond Adieu to the splendid temple to wake up with a start and find ourselves facing the cold, cold work.

The Summer of 1 22 wrought a supreme transformation in the ten little would- bes that comprised the first dietetics class of Pratt Institute, for on September 19th, ten honest-to-goodness Senior Dietitians resumed their work here. Needless to say, we duly felt the prestige that was ours, for we were the only Seniors on the fifth and sixth floors and we held full sway over the incoming groups. At the er - outset there were but seven of us ; three, Grace O ' Kicfe, Mable McCarn and Ne a Miller having begun immediately their probation work as student dietitians at Bmciklwi and Kings Count Hospitals. How we wished we could sp) ' in upon these rookies being initiated into the tricks of the trade! Ve were all very sorry to have Mrs. N ' e, who was with us through thick and thin in our Junior year, leave us, for we all felt her good influence and we miss her greatly. She is now at Columbia University and we know she is making herself known in the same manner as at Pratt. However, we gained another bright and shining light in Mona, who realized what she and the rest of the world were missing, had she not joined the dietitians. October 11, we met personally each of the Juniors and Institutionals at a tea in the Women ' s Club. On the afternoon of the 22nd of November, we were entertained by the Institutional Management Class at an informal tea at the Woman ' s Club. We will have to hand it to the Institutionals for doing the affair up brown. We were further feted by Friend Juniors who sure do know how to entertain in spite of their outh. Christmas vacation was a very acceptable relaxation period. We all departed for home, bag and baggage, to hang up the family stockings. January 2nd, another upheavel occurred in H. D.

SyK ' ia w as alotted to Willard Parker for her training. The second week of Fehruar brought us the sad (?) realization that our hacteriology course was to close. Our last experiment in working with thr unknown gave us confidence and proved the Einstein theory that some little bug is gouig to get you some day . Question: Dot, when is the Unknown known? Perseverence is the crown of success. Should one hut wander into Eleanor ' s and Dot ' s room! they would see what is apparently a small piece of glass rod, marked off into degrees. What hapened in chemistry, Eleanor? Speaking of breakfast diets, Dot is first, last and till Niagara Falls, for Shredded Wheat.

Y. ; 197 INSTTITUI EE MAmiEMENT y4 From long ago in the dim and misty past of September, 1922, come faint recol- lections of those first days at Pratt. We were greeted with an arithmetic examina- tion, and many were the sighs and moans as we entered Room 57. During thos; first few weeks the old walls re-echoed to our cries as we dashed wildly about, demand- ing and pleading about this room and that — where it wa s and how to locate it, until our wits were so nearly departed from us that we had to ask John whether the fourth floor came before the third or after the sixth. Our fond memories go back to the dress parades between Rooms 57 and 59, feeling justified in our belief that we did not need that g mnasium period. This was quickly dispelled after a few of our prize exhibitions on the gymnasium floor when we failed to follow Miss Jordan ' s commands of To the rear, march! — Knees bend, and hands over head, place! The following day we stepped carefully, and anxiously asked our fellow students to propel us more gently up and down the stairs. W hat would we have done in our special project work without the guiding hand and counsel of Miss Holloway and Miss Condit, as our brains, (which are sup- posed to be mature) combed over and over the many books upon the shelves in the reference room of the library? At times things became quite hectic and Instructors and students dashed madly hither and thither. Then suddenly calm and peace reigned over all and one wondered what had been the cause of this disorder, and whence had come this balm of Gilead to still the troubled waters. Now to our gay times when we all made merry. One remembers our teas where some of us were. Oh, so dignified and proper! The Junior and Senior Hospital Dietitians entertained us most charmingly at tea, and we did have such a good time. Will we ever forget our trip to the brass shops, Jacob Reis Settlement House, and Chinatown? We prowled and we poked, we snooped and we inquired, until weary. We then turned our steps to the Port Arthur. Memory holds dear. Miss Shank, at the head of our long table with a large glass reposing at her elbow. We have yet to discover just what was the foaming content of that glass. The picture to us completed the day — but, say, will you ever forget that delicious chicken, so well done .• ' A rumor is current that someone had hysterics at our theatre party, when we went to the The Old Soak. Surely this is all the evidence that is necessar - as proof of a ripping good time. We want to know why the Weather-man handed us a wet day every Tuesday 198 dunns the winttr term, when nii main a Tuesday atternuon we tramped through the rain, the wind, nc:)w, and hail on some interesting field trip. As we go forth from these dear walls, we realize that Pratt has given us much that we would never have gotten from LIFE elsewhere. The personal contact has been to us a great inspiration, and we ill always feel that in time of trouble, or of doubt, like the prodigal we may return for help and advice. COOKING When making Cake or Biscuit, Your toil will be in vain. Unless you know the calories Each biscuit should cijntain. So when your mixture ' s finished, — And this is well to know, — Just take each calorie one-by-one. And stick ' em in the dough. And when you ' ve solved the problem It ' s only half the fight. For you must have some vitamines To make them balance right. Then roll the mixture genth ' o ' er,- Be sure you do it right, — Take up each squirming N ' itamine And pack him out of sight. Now when your mixture ' s all made up. It ' s sometimes hard to tell Just why your cake has turned to dough Or whv ' Our biscuit fell. Thus treated they ' ll be all stuck up. Stacked up, and (illed nith pride. And evermore in s veet content Will happily abide. lii-iicfcfi lid ' iHxr in 199 ANDREWS, MAMIE West Point, Georgia ' A et, think what ills the scholar ' s life assail, roil. eii ' , want, a gairet, or the jail. 1;ENNETT.

Mr. Howe pointed out the fact that successful home-making is just as much a business as banking or medicine or the law, and that as such, it is something to which women should devote time and thought, and for which they should be trained. As we progress in our work we are finding that there is indeed much to learn, and we are being very thoroughly taught that much. We all feel that the Home- making Course meets a vital need in the life of the modern woman, and what we are learning is in aluable. Soon after we were well started on our program we held a class meeting, at which wc elected our officers and decided on our class dues. Frances Teter was elected president, and we have been congratulating oursehes on our choice ever since. Miriam Smith was elected vice president, Julia Doughty, secretary, and Esther Becker, treas- urer. Miss Becker collects twenty-five cents from us every semester, and she ' s proving to be very conscientious!

Little did we think that it would involve real hard work instead of mere fun, for almost ever one kno s just how they x ' ant their gowns made. Perhaps with this thought in mind we set up our drapes for entrance examina- tion, hut onh with the hopes that (nir instructor ' s influences would cultivate a spark of talent in us and we be admitted to this course. Dumb-bells personified! Yes, most of us know just how we would like our clothes to look ; but how many have achieved the art and fulfilled that desire? That was exactly what we were starting out to do — design clothes. ' Tis easy to say it, but it can be done, for those who think they can, will do it. Because of our past year in Trade, the serving wasn ' t quite such a worry as sketching and life drawing. The classes were sketches in themselves. Most of our drawings could have been accepted as rare cartoons; nevertheless with patience, perseverance and work, not many weeks had passed before the real struggle was over. To sav the least it was a pleasure to work in a room with so many attractive smocks made from dyed unbleached muslin, embroidered in gay colors. This was our first great problem. Inspirations were conceived from beautiful snow storms; also pleasant and historic costumes. As for our museum trips they proved a most valuable asset, par- ticularl - in the fascinating tie d eing and batik designs. The French models seen at the opening were not only interesting but of great i mportance in de eloping style. However, joy was in the air when it was announced, Go to Fifth A enue today and — why finish, when we know the result is that New York has never seen a better season for shows? Only a few months had elapsed when a Fashion Show was given in honor of Mr. Frederick Pratt. No doubt it was that successful day which encouraged us to do better in preparation for the others to follow. Happy hours were spent in planning and designing all kinds of wool, silk, and cotton dresses, from the stunning evening dress to the smart street and sport cos- tumes; but after all, they were hours spent in building a firm foundation and ever will we remember that it was at Pratt we gained that valuable knowledge.

We ere first assigned to various rooms and there, much to our honor, were informed that we were to take — an examination! It had been rightly named, for it seemed that the questions were such that could be answered only by a finished modiste with a complete knowledge of the world of clothing. Somehow, as if by the aid of a magic wand, we seemed to answer those mysterious questions; and with the realization of the slowly approaching end we were beginning to regain consciousness when our eyes fell upon the tenth que stion: last but b no means least, Obtain material from desk, make an apron with button holes. As every story has a climax, so did our examination and this was it. Making an apron seemed to us sufficient in itself without attempting a buttonhole. It was evident we were all of the same opinion and the classroom was in an uproar with horor-stricken cries of a button hole! They ' re out of style! Make an apron in this short time? That ' s absurd! Why, I ' ve never sewed in mv life. Thusly we ra ed on for some moments. Mysteriously in due course of time they were finished and our Instructors were very sweet about accepting them. Day by da we found ourselves more interested and encouraged in our work and making friends with our classmates. We decided in order that we might know each other better we would have a Hallowe ' en party at the Casino. Here we met the Faculty. The end of Christmas vacation found us back at our work more ambitious than ever. Our ambitions were not in vain tor in a short time we held an exhibition proudly displaying the work we had labored so strenuously over. All too quickly Spring came and with it the realization that we w ere to be together for only one more term — so with united efi ' orts we did our best to make this Spring Fashion Show a success. We were not disappointed for many said it was the best ever. As our school year has come to its close we shall always remember Pratt as our loved Alma Mater and shall never forget the friends we have made here, in w horn we have learned to realize the real significance of true friendship. Before we part we wish to thank our instructors for all they have done to make our course pleasant, interesting, and worthwhile. 215 TRADE DRESSMAKING Back, Bella 1669 Fiftieth Street, Br(joklyn, N.

They sur eyed one another, the room, the instructors ( incidentalU the field ), and by degrees settled down to the intricacies of cataloging, classifying and other subjects only encountered in the library world, to say nothing of the exertion expended in hunting down elusive current topics of momentous interest to be hurled at the heads of unsuspecting classmates on the coming Saturday mornings. The first social event, and in this case an unprecedented one, due to the bursting forth of a jazz band in the hitherto silent precincts of the library, took place in the Art Gallery, and was tendered the incoming class by the Graduates ' Association. It was an e ent thoroughh enjoyed by all who attended, although several humor- ously complained that attempts to talk above the music affected them with deafness and sure throats! Such were effects of the jazz age. After the holidays we assembled for the second term. The Graduates ' Asso- ciation again met, this time for the annual luncheon held at the Hotel McAlpin. Christopher Morley was the speaker, and addressed the company in his own inimitable manner. Vork progressed rapidly during the term, also pleasure, for who could gainsay the fact to those devotees of the opera, theatre, and last, but not least, basketball games? Several weeks before the close of the term the classroom buzzed more noisily and excitedly than ever. Why? Because the time for the Spring trip, annual and much-looked-forvvard-to event, was fast approaching, which was to carry us through New Jersey and Pennsylvania. As to the trip, it surpassed all expectations. We were dined and feted in a manner becoming to royalty, and learned things of immense value in the lines along which we hope to become famous! Incidentally, and most importantl ' , along the way we became better acquainted with each other, to say nothing of William Penn and Benjamin Franklin; also learned that the other clubs of Pratt Institute have nothing on us for pursuits along the paths of music ( ?). None of our members became permanently lost, although the monitors daily grew frantic with the ghastly thought of such a possibility. With a vacation spent in traveling about the country, it seemed doubly hard to get down to work again. The greater part of our third term consisted of prac- ticing our newly learned theories on an unsuspecting public here, there and every- where ; of descending in hordes upon well organized departments where the public spirited attendants put up with the inconvenience, nobly.

These were a new ven- ture, and were very pleasing socially as well as serving to introduce the new students to one another. Charles A. Olmstead. Manager of Saturday trips, ran off a large number of excellent expeditions of visitation, but the most popular was that to the United States Military Academy at West Point. The Women ' s Club had a trip to West Point on the same day so that the party was well rounded out. The buildings of the Academy were visited, the regimental review was appreciated, and the football game was enjoyed by all. The ten pin tournament was successful for I. Ch. E. 11, who won all matches, and consequently the championship. Graves, of the same team, won the gold medal for high average score. I. E. E. ' 23 of last year ' s athletic fame won the Duck Pin Tournament. I. E. E. ' 23 was the final team eliminated. The Individual Duck Pin Tournament was won by Martino, I. E. E. ' 24, with Houck, I. E. E. ' 23, as runner-up. It was in pool that competition was keen this year. An unusually large number of good pool players were in evidence, and they were well distributed among the competing classes. There were five exceptionally good teams out of nine entered in the interclass competition, and four of these tied for first place in the round robin. I. E. E. ' 24, I. Ch. E. ' 24, Arch., and I. M. E. ' 24 ran off an elimination for the winner, and the Mechanical aggregation proved the best team. Toale, of I. Ch. E. ' 24, took the gold medal for high average score. The Individual Pool Tournament was won by Snyder of I. M. E. ' 24, with Calhoun of I. E. E. ' 23, as runner-up. Chess and checkers were high in favor this year. Lear of I. E. E. ' 23 won the chess championship, and Davis of I. E. E. ' 24 was the winner in the Individual Checker Tournament. The seven men composing the P. I. Lunch Corporation have been a ' aluable asset to the Club this year. The manner in which they have handled the feeding of the Club members on the curb and in the Club House has been highly praiseworthy. Fair treatment, hard work, and good service, has been their motto. The officers, consisting of President E. B. Alrich, Vice-President W. H. Cant- well, Secretary A. E. Houck, and Social Chairman H. H. Brown, deserve much credit for the success of the Club Year. There has been no strife and harmon - has had full sway throughout. It has been a good year. 244 - ' 1 .f v H 91 7 V Si. 4 Duck Pin Champs, I. E. E., ' 23 Ten Pill Champs, 1. Ch. E., ' 23 245 I OOD TO DK - WOMEN ' S CLUB Once upon a time, in the dear, dead days that we ' d rather not recall, there wasn ' t any Vome ' s Club. It seems incredible, but the fact remains incontrovertible ; there simply wasn ' t any Women ' s Club. Obviously, such a situation required strong measures, so with the Alumnae as the moving spirit, all Pratt Institute got together to fi.x the matter up. A monster mass meeting was held, (this was away back in the middle ages, in the spring of 1913), and a petition was sent to the Trustees, request- ing an organization for the girls, similar to the Men ' s Club. The Trustees recog- nized the great need of some such place and bent all their energies to the task of finding it, with the result that, scarcely a year later, to he exact, Sunday, March first, 1914, the house on the corner of Willoughby Avenue and Hall Street was opened to the students as the Pratt Institute Women ' s Club. The house was one of the regular frame ones that are quite frequently an abomi- nation in the sight of the public, but when this emerged from its overhauling and remodelling, it was a thing of beauty. The entire house was renovated and redeco- rated to meet needs of girls of the different schools. All the rooms were fitted out so well, that the house seemed more like a private home than a school club. Ever - effort was made to arrange it as attractivelj- and comfortably as possible. So suc- cessful were those efforts, that even the girls that are living at home like to linger there until they have to depart. Some day, some anxious mother will find, after frantically phoning all over Brooklyn for an hour or so. that her daughter was peace- fully reading Life at the Club. It isn ' t at all difficult to see why the Women ' s Club is popular. It is the social center for Pratt. All the class parties are held there and there the sectional clubs have occasional festivities. At the beginning of the term, teas are held on Sunday afternoons and everybody comes, the new people because the ' are homesick, and the old ones because they are glad to get back. There you can meet a stranger who happens to come from the same state that you do, and immediately you are friends. The men enjoy these teas quite as much as the girls, because (don ' t breathe it to a soul) their homesickness is wor.se than ours. .-Xnd behind all this is Mrs. Taylor, who is always ready to help out, whether it is a question of how to get to Wana- maker ' s, or which of the local grocers i i the most reasonable, ( nce you have become acquainted with Mrs. Taylor, you are a regular Prattite, and ()u will remain one for the rest of your days. 247 MEN ' S GLEE CLUB The Men ' s Glee Cluh bejran its tourth year of existence with only about ri e of the former members and Mr. Tebbs as Director. At the first few meetings the largest crowd ever, attended, but true to form the crowd dwindled to practically twenty-five stand-bys. Out of the usual course of events we were the first to extend an invitation for a party v. ' hich we gave the Girls ' Glee Club on January 17, at the Men ' s Club. Due to the good work of Mort Shears, Greeker, Walleen, and Don Brown the affair was some success. Mr. Boltz assisted in the e ' ening ' s entertainment by rendering a few solos. At our annual concert of previous years outside artists have rendered numbers besides those given by the Glee Club. This year a plan was inaugurated by means of which school talent exclusively was used, which was not only very successful. but tended to make the concert of April 20, 1923, a more thoroughly homey and lively affair. 248 GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB We ' ve spent a quiet winter, full of patience and persistence : We went along so silently, no one knew of our existence; Until the men a part) gave on a rare. e entful night. It was an ahsolute success — each moment ga e delight! ' ' I ' is of the dear Girls ' Cilet Cluh that we do ji) ful sing. As in the two years past ' ou ' e heard us with the hudding spring So this year once again we raised our voices hmd on high, And scored another triumph, with our third year parsing h . We h(jpe that in the future the enthusiasm spreads. Each year increased momentu[n, while pleasures crown our heads. Where there is jolly comradeship such as this cluh provides. All haill the Pratt Clirls ' Glee Cluh, and hail the men, hesides! 249 nap— Wnpf iniUPm iii inii iiapMji CROWN AND SPADE CLUB You remember (if not, pray turn over and look) that, in the last epistle, the mutual word was Well. We think it is better to add Done to that, since the two linked, go to make the soul of man rise to the upper register and bring a gay light to a woman ' s eyes. Encouragement is the first law in the seventh heaven, we have heard, and in-as-much as our predecessors were not over ambitious, we had to put the spade before the Cr own and Dig. The resurrection took place one noon hour when Art Gray acted in (didn ' t have) the capacity of a Tammany Boss and rose to the occasion. Nominations were in order for the Big Mogul ' s job. Suffice to say that Art is still acting. The progress and success made to date are largely due to Polly and Alice and divers others particeps criminis. Now our party at the Woman ' s Club was surely not to be sneezed at. Along toward five o ' clock, Polly was running here and there yelling, Alice, where Art thou ; she finally found both of them sitting in a corner munching crackers and cracking wise. There was nut-cake to be had with palaver poured over it. What a wonderful asset to a man ' s life is the kitchen of the Woman ' s Club. 250 NEW ENGLAND CLUB Once again the readers of Prattonia lia e to hear all the doings of the New England Club for the year 1922-1923. Every Clubite will agree that this year has been a top notcher for the social life of the Club. Vho hasn ' t heard all about the big dog-roast tiiat we New Englanders had on a wonderful day in October? We must not forget the part the Nutmegs played in this party. Both Clubs joined forces and what a wonderful time we had. First everybod met at the Thrift, including Air. Snowden who chaperoned the Roast, with our popular new- Gym teacher. Miss Jordan. Mr. Snowden brought along his noted alise and a new- portable victrola! So b the moonlight on the banks of the Hudson we danced and danced — sang — and told ghost stories until it was time for all little Prattites to be in dreamland. Exciting — I ' ll say! 251 NUTMEG CLUB It WT.s time for all the Nutmegs to be grated into one batcii of good times, so we planned a dog-roast. We met at our old standby, the Thrift, one Saturday in October. As usual everyone was anxious (?) to carry the dogs and rolls but we finally calmed the crowd and let a few of the huskiest Boiler-Makers do the honors. And would you believe it — the dogs got loose! That is, the bag broke, but we finally rounded them all up again and put them into a new cage. Well, we got to the palisades without any more trouble and found a good spot to build our fire. The work of fuel combustion we left to the Chemists of the crowd while the girls got the rolls and fi. ings ready. Those dogs sure did taste good; and the coffee — WHO was it who forgot to bring alcng the sugar? Mr. Snowden brought his portable victrola and we danced by the side of the Hudson and ate dogs at intervals. We sat around the fire and told stories and sang until it was time for all good Pratt students to start for home. Our friend Bill surely was anxious to get that coffee pail back to Brooklyn. We ' ve been wondering ever since — how come, Bill? 252 SOUTHERN AND WESTERN CLUB The Southern and AVestern Club played a very important part in school acti ities during the past, year. There has always been a growing need for some sort of unit - among the students and the so-called sectional club has done much to bring the four schools of the Institute together upon a common meeting ground. Our object has always been to furnish social entertainment and to bind the members together witii a feeling of lasting fellowship. Our record has been enviable. Another year has gone. Soon nothing but a memory of the good times, friend- ships and the happy days will remain. But memories are among the truly great things of life and we cherish them. To those who graduate we wish happiness and prosperity. To those who stay, all we have to say is Carry on and make the Southern and Western Club the liveliest, finest organization in the school. 253 ' SI l|S U. S. VETERANS ' CLUB The U. S. Veterans ' Club at Pratt, composed of ex-service men who are being rehabih ' tated and fitted for active service again by the U. S. Veterans Bureau, is one of the most active organizations. Primarily its purpose is not of a social nature, but to assist in the welfare of its members in their relations about the Institute, as well as to hold its members more closely together in their school spirit and individual ambitions. Since 1919 these men have been a real part of the Institute, and the attitude of the faculty is greatly appreciated in their understanding and working out of the difficulties which have been encountered. The Club as a whole is indebted to Miss Wallace of the S. T. School, and to Miss Cox of Fine and Applied Arts, for their untiring efforts during the entire year. 254 THE STUDENTS ' COUNCIL The Students ' Council is an all Pratt liud). the purpose of whieh is to carr on the social and other extra-curricular student activities of Pratt Institute in such a way as to keep the different schools which it represents, in closer accord, so that the Institute may he more closely related and unified. These duties are facilitated hy the Council ' s membership, which consists of the President of each class, one representative from Prattonia, and one from the Athletic Association. Vith such a membership the Council is certain to he repre- sented at, and in touch with, all the e ents of the ear, whether social, athletic, or scholastic. The Students ' Council also enjoys the pri ile je of presenting student problems before the Trustees and in this manner forms a connecting link between the Trustees and the Student bod ' . 255 Nei€ hbor ?Mp A990c ' nt on During the past year the S T Chapter of tlie Neighborship Association has confined its work to the district near the Institute. In this way the men were able to devote the greatest amount of time and do the most work possible. The Boys ' Club work at Taffe Place was handled very successfully by Mr. Armstrong and Mr. Meister. Several basketball teams were formed and a champion- ship tournament played. Handball and Indoor Baseball were among the most popular sports. The boys attended regularly and the average attendance was over 150. The Neighborship Association takes this opportunity to thank all the members of the school who have contributed to the success of the year ' s work. 256 NEIGHBORSHIP ASSOCIATION F. A. A. CHAPTER The Fine and Applied Arts chapter ofl the Neighborship Association has been an enthusiastic one this year. Officers and representatives from each class have, with the co-operation of the members in the student b()d , made 1923 a successful Neighborship Year. Members were procured by a two day campaign and there were but few who did not wear the hand-blocked black and gold tags. Half of the proceeds of this campaign were given to the general Pratt Neighborship Fund and half to the Art Students Scholarship Fund. Students from all classes were interested in the Christmas part at the Fmmanuel House and many representatives were present to help with the part which is said to be one of the most successful ever gi cn. The Presidents of the four Chapters formed a committee to plan the party. Miss Baldwin of this chapter bought ( ne hundred gifts for girls. Miss Grumman and other enthusiastic helpers led games and Miss Baldwin conducted the singing until Santa Claus appeared. 257 NEIGHBORSHIP ASSOCIATION, H. S. A. Twenty-nine years ago the Neighborship Association of Pratt Institute was founded. The circumstances of its inception were much akin to just what the Association stands for and upholds. There was a feeling that an Institute so large and so wide-reaching must realize that education means ser ice and that those who receive benefits must in turn give to others. Howe er widely open are the doors of this institution, not all can be admitted, and it should consequently be the aim of the pri ileged ones to go forth and share their benefits with others. The organization of Pratt Institute pointed clearly to the best method of organiz- ing the extension work thus contemplated ; that is. Library, School, Science Tech- nology, Art School and Household Science Art, all formed their individual groups. Each group or school elects or appoints its own officers, manages its social and business affairs, and once each month sends a representative to the Neighborship Council, composed of faculty and trustee members. At the beginning of each year dues are collected from each student, the amount of which, in each school, is divided equally, one part going to the general fund and the other part to the treasury of the respective schools. 258 iii ' ll HLETIC5 III ' I ' 5fi (. .

The material as a whole looked exceptionally good from the start and was narrowed down to the men from last year ' s squad, with the addition of four others. Through the hard and continuous ettorts of Coach Sim, a team was developed which pro ed to be one of the best in years, winning eight out of thirteen of their games. 262 COOPER UNION D. S. We opened the season with Cooper Union and a victory, the final score being 41-18. Without wasting any time Undie started the scoring with a field goal, and Cooper came back with another. However, this was as close as they ever came to victory, for from that time on we piled up point after point with but slight difficulty. The team worked smoothly, both on the defense and offense, and gave promise of a good season. The substitutes in the last few minutes of play proved that the secoftd string leather tossers were nearU as strong as the first and could he depended i non in case of need. THE V. KSriV TE.WI 263 HB WK CRESCENT A. C. AT C. A. C. W itfi hopes running high and with great confidence we journeyed to their floor. It was the night before vacation, but we had some supporters. The first half proved that the jinx still exists and the team could not get going. The half ended, 21-7, in their fa or. after a poor showing. In the second half things went better and after a hard fight we nearly tied the score, only to fall short in the end b nine points, the final score being 36-27. N. Y. AGGIES Still smarting from the defeat the week before, we took on the Aggies at Pratt Gym. In the opening chapter things were still breaking bad, but we managed to come through with .i three-point lead. The closing chapter was astly different. From the first blast of the whistle we had the ball and, by fast passing and good shooting, soon ran up a score that warranted the use of an entireh new team, who quickly ran the score still higher, endmg, .58-ib. N. Y. STATE TEACHERS Last year the Teachers gave us a hard fight and we were prepared for another, but were disappointed. In the first half they failed to score from the field and the half ended, 2b- 1, in our fa or. The second half was merely a repetition of the first, with the Yellow and Black continuall} in possession of the ball. The final score of 48-7 tells the tale. 264 MANHATTAN It lodkml like a n-iH-titiiiii of last yeai ' s ;;ain(. , fast aiul lou li, with a victi)r in the end.

In the second half it was far closer, Man- hattan coming ithin a point of t inti the score twice and finally succeedin ;, 23-23. The extra period was a thriller, hut Manhattan ' s weight hegan to tell and thc heat us out, 31-30. PRINCETON NASSAU At last we e aded the jin and captured an overtime game. I ' he Nassau ' s were newcomers to the Gym, but we hope they will come again, for they helped stage one of the fastest and cle.mest games seen on this floor for a number of years. The first and second haKes were simply repetitions, with first one team leading and then the other, ending in a tie at 21-21. However, in the overtime period we sewed the game up tight b scoring seven points to their two and carried oft the victory, 28-23. Referee Biiinn. CRESCENT A. C. AT P. 1. This time we met the New Mooners on our own battle field and for the first twenty minutes held our own, the half ending in our f,iv(]r, 11-1(1.

TUETS Another closelv -contested defeat. Thev secured the lead in the first half, which was mostiv defensive on tlu ' part of both teams. The points were for the most part scored from the fifteen-lOot line on both sides. The second half was just the opposite, both teams playing the offensive, w ith Tufts trailing until the la t three minutes of plav , when thev came through with several long shots and took the game, 24-20. HROOKIAN ■POL ' i ' Poly came to the (iyni for the first tune in several season , although we played them last season and lost. I ' he game throughout w is rough and devoid of clean playing. The first period ended in a deadlock. Poly tv ing the score in the last minute. It seems revenge was to be ours, however, for we forged to the front in the second half and maintained ovir lead to the end, winning by a margin of five points, 26-21. 265 DREXEL As Drexel defeated us last year, we were out to even matters up. In the first half they had the best of things and won out, 12-11. But in the second half we braced up and soon made short work of getting a comfortable lead. The game was exceedingly clean, neither team getting many tries from the fifteen-foot line. The final score was 32-23. ST. LAWRENCE Another team that defeated us last year and another chance to exen matters up, which we did ! A fast, rough game in which they had the worst of things throughout. The first session ended, 1 1-4, in our favor, but they came back strong in the second half and nearly tied the count. It was a hard fight during the last fi e minutes, but we finally obtained possession of the ball and prevented a tie. The final score was 19-17, and represented the third win in succession. 1 m RENSSELAER POLY The up staters came down expecting to hand out a sound beating to us, but they just pulled out with a ictory. The game was slow and rough, ' with a great many fouls. For the first few minutes of play they had things their o xn wa ' , but the Yellow and Black suddenly began to work and the half ended in their fa or, 16-13. Little scoring was done by either side in the final session, but R. P. I. held their own and pulled out a victory, 21-15. m S3 3-3 ■ P VARSITY TENNIS s i ' Shortly after the opening of school in September, a singles tournament was held, which has proved to be of great assistance in lining up the varsity squad this spring. About twenty-eight men reported and Coach Sim, with the aid of Capt:im Dunning, soon cut this to the regular squad. Manager Norton booked some very good games for the season and in the first of these Pratt defeated C. C. N. ' ' ., 4-2, winning two singles and both doubles matches. 268 SCHEDULE April 21- — C. C. X.

Shortly afterward the other men began to work out in the Casino. The outside practice, as usual, was held up until late by the weather, and when it did start, class games broke it up more still. It was with two or three weeks of practice on a diamond not yet in condition, and with weather far more suited to football than to baseball, that we played our first game. Another great handicap laj ' in the fact that only a few of last year ' s varsity were back in school. Captain Reynolds at short. Doc Charles at 3rd, Steinbach behind the bat. Berry in the outHeld, Culhane for the mound, and Aldrich as a utility man. However, luck seemed to be with us and some fine material came out, and with a little more work a fine team should result. 271 Just before the St. John ' s game Brunn went to work and left us coachless. How- ever, Simmy and Steinback are doing the job in fine style. We journeyed to Dexter Park on April 14 to play St. John ' s. It was a cold day and little real ball resulted. Suffice to say they defeated us, 11-6. The following week we went out to Bay Ridge to meet our ancient rivals, the Crescent A. C. The day was ideal and so was the game. They defeated us, 6-4, but not without a fight and the men showed a brand of ball that is sure to carry us through to a good ending. THE SCHEDULE April 14— St. John ' s, 11; Pratt, 6.

The Architects, after a poor start, took a new grip and pulled through to take second place. In the first year division the M. E. ' 24 team once again l.inded on top, with the Electricals in second berth. The Architects were defeated by M. E. ' 24 and Chemistry took the measure of E. E. ' 24 in the semi-finals, once more leaving Chemistry and M. E. ' 24 to fight it out. The final game was staged on championship night and Chemistry won her second championship of the ear. defeating M. E. INTERCLASS BASEBALL Thf Interclass baseball season upened with i reat enthusiasm. Excellent material turned out from each class and at the ver - beginning it could easily be seen that the championship was to be hotly contested. The I. Ch. E. champions of the previ- ous year worked diligently to hold their honor but the end of the season found M. E. ' 22 leading the second year league with Chem. ' 12, Art ' 23 and Arch. ' 2}, tied for second place. In the playofif Ch. E. ' 23 showed their old time form and were ictorious in landing the second berth. Continuing the form shown throughout the year in other sports, E. E. ' 23 led the first vear league with Ch. E. ' 21 in second place. The playofif of the semi-linals left the championship to be decided between M. E. ' 23 and E. E. ' 23. Again the first ear Electricians showed their superior skill as they defeated the boilermakers in the most exciting game of the season by the close margin of 6 to S. INTERCLASS SWIMMING MEET . ' nother sport revived at the institute this ear was swimming. Little did we realize that we had some very fast men among us, but such was the case. Bclin, of E. E. ' 23, former schoolboy champion of New York City, broke two of the tank records. In the 100-yard swim he finished in 58 seconds flat, clipping 5 2-5 seconds from the former record, while in the 50-yard swim he clipped 2-5 of a second from the record of 28 flat, finishing in 27 3-5 seconds. Although E. E. ' 23 had the individual champion it was E. E. ' 24 who took, first place in the class standing. 275 INTERCLASS TENNIS In the fall term a singles tournament was held, which ended a very successful tennis season. It brought out some very good material for the 1923 varsity squad. The finals were between Harold Anderson of M. E. ' 23 and Kenneth Chace of Ch. ' 24. Anderson won in three straight sets and was awarded a gold medal as champion. With the opening of the courts in the spring there was a great display of tennis spirit. Bright and early every morning the courts were full and remained so until darkness came on. Also, with the opening of the courts the class managers met, and after electing H. T. Jeandron r,s interclass manager, drew up a schedule for the tournament. The interclass spirit is fine and from all indications a hard fight is in store for the winning class. It is to be hoped this will continue, as it is a great aid to the varsity in developing material and helps to keep up Pratt ' s fine record in this sport. 276 i INTERCLASS HANDBALL Sume 3,000 ears ago King Tut and his fdlidwcis pla i ' d haiulhali against the pyramids. Since the discovery of his tomb this game has once more become very popuhir. Ever ' morning and night it is played in the gym and we have some cracker-jacks! A league was formed during the winter term and a great deal of interest developed. Even Simmy got the fever and started a regular class. The Art repre- sentati -es, Gelston Ho eIl and Ro Marhase, won the title by defeating E. E. I., 21-12 and 21-11, in the final match. ■1, EXECUTIVE COMMll TKr: ATHLE I ' lC . SSUC1.AT10W 277 I! I ( J t intp:rclass all ' round a ' I ' hlktic contest The «-intt-r term broujiht back this event at Pratt. It proved to be er ' suc- cessful, lasting; over a period of nine weeks and bringinsi out 150 men. It would almost seem that M. E. ' 23 had been waitinj: for this event, for they stepped into the lead at the ery first and, increasing it point by point, won the event. They did not win it without opposition, however, for Art fought hard and lost out by only eighteen points. In the individual high point score Armstrong took the lead at the very end, defeating BuUard, M. E. ' 23, and Howell of Art, who took second and third places respectively.

This was somewhat of a surprise, as the strong team of the 1 23 Electricals was greatly favored to come through again this year.. In the first year division the Mechanical ' 24 team made a clean sweep, and thereb - gained the right to play a three-game series with Chemistry for the champion- ship. The pla off brought out some of the best soccer of the season, and Chemistry was put to the limit to win. In the first game they defeated Mechanical by 3 to 1, but the next two games vere scoreless ties, and thus the season ended. 280 [ .- :i GIRLS ' RECREATION ASSOCIATION After many attempts the girls finally organized this assciciation under the leadership of Miss Gilhert and Miss Jordan. The object being to promote athletics among the girls and to have interclass meets in the different branches of sports. The first task encountered was the selection of officers, as follows: President MAR i C. BuRGESS, Normal II Secretary Catherixe Steffox, Hospital Dietitics I Treasurer Al.lCE B. Calloway, Normal II Art Representative FraxCES FilCH, General Art II H. S. and A . Rep Frances Graves, Hosp. Dietitics I Basketball Manager Beatrice Cumixg, Normal II Swimming Manager Mrs. Van Ai.lex, Gen. Art III Faculty Adviser Miss Gii.bert These officers, barked h some si t enthusiastic girls, started out w ith basketball, and soon added riding swimming and tennis. All these sports pr(i ed to be successful and it is hoped that next year will find them even stronger. The life-saving class, which started last year, did very well, and in June the following girls passed the test: Mitze Conn, Kay Karrick, Kay Peters, Elizabeth Toy, Dorothy McEntee, Priscilla Mullen, Ray Ale.xander, Jean Montgomery and Gertrude Van Allen. This year a class is being conducted under the leadership of some of these girls. The girls certainly made the right kind of a start and if they continue will soon outshine the men.
