Be ab Soe od is SO nN To Josephine Adams Rathbone—President of the American Library Association, officer in New York State and New York City library organiza- tions, frequent contributor to professional publications, member of the staff of Pratt Institute Free Library 1893-95 , instructor in the School of Library Science, 1895-1911, Vice-Director of the School 1911 to date— as a tribute for the joy her teaching has given to generations of students; for the inspiration and example she has been to those in the field; and for her deep-rooted loyalty to our Alma Mater and the profession at large, we respectfully dedicate the 1938 Prattonia. JOSEPHINE ADAMS RATHBONE FOREWORD .... Every teacher or instruc- tor in every school or college at some time makes a statement which has been verified time and time again, and which is far from being out of place here: “You'll get out of this course only what you put into it.” To those whose life at Pratt consisted solely of schoolwork and mumbled acknowledgments of class- mates’ greetings, Prattonia is worth little more than the paper and ink of which it is made. For those whose myriad pleasant memories and sincere friend- ships are the result of something more than a mere existence at Pratt is the 1938 Prattonia intended. Miss G. C. Duntz Mr. N. W.

(Admittedly, too many cooks spoil the broth, but a potion of many and varied ingredients such as the 1938 Prattonia is the work of many hands. The Prattonia Board wishes to thank the helping hands which have made Prattonia a reality.

The first calls for a continuously changing program that synchronizes with the best professional practices. This is possible of realization only when the faculty and student body work together in terms of the business and art activities prevalent in the commercial and industrial worlds. To support this pro- gram, a corps of instructors has been secured who are themselves leaders in the various professional art fields. Under their direction the student develops an attitude of seriousness and application resulting in a wholesome professional atmosphere. At the conclusion of the three years of such a program of study, the graduate has no gap to bridge between his art training and the workaday world. {|The second objective, predicated upon the first, main- tains that the educational intent of the Art School is fully realized only when all its graduates are employed in the professional art field for which they are tr ained. Since the Placement Bureau has an increasing demand for graduates with art experience, we accept, as a supple- mentary objective, the challenge to place every graduate in a position commensurate with his ability and training. In addition, the Placement Bureau actively participates in the advance of its alumni to their maximum capacity service. James C. BoupREAv, Director.

Should one jus- tify this unique class? We suppose we’re more or less like any other class; (personal opinions set aside) capable, honest craftsmen, more on cooking than washing dishes. After having buffeted the storms of the fourth dimension through the courtesy of Mr. Benrimo, campaigns for Mr. Longyear, that grew to tornado-like proportions, and getting up at all hours of the morning to get here to fight for Mr. Ajootian so that we can get a mental concept of the thing, we hope we’re old enough to look down on a drawing board. {There are loads of things to think of in the ‘remember when” department. The fact, with such promising people as Brotman who attained stardom at a tender age with Macy’s, and Armsheimer, Leibowitz, and Platt whose Dartmouth posters and Barker, whose Wild Life poster received such recognition, resulting in a clean sweep for Advertising IIIA, we can appoint ourselves to the “I knew them when” clan. {Will we ever forget the time that Charlie Finsilver, our own “Chafins,” barged in with his wine and pine-tree green corduroy bolero shirt that he ran up on his very own loom or Mr. Leonard’s constant asking for “Oolub’? Then there is Herrick (he’s the man the people choose), self-styled Casanova who has been known to do more favors than a politician; then again, wouldn’t we die if Bill Frazer didn’t prologue his drawings with a horse and jockey. Hal Corney’s always good for a laugh. We won't forget Mary Amler and Margie Blinn, the tall and short of it, or Arlene’s eyes that hold title to the most ‘come hither” in Brooklyn or Helen Campe, our well-liked new addition. Yes, Prattonia, you have much to look forward to in prospective classes but you'll never get over the loss of Advertising IITA 1938. 34 ADVERTISING DESIGN IIIA ...

It seems a long time since we made our initial visit to Ryerson Street, each of us confident that there was little for us to learn. Although our confidence waned after the first glimpse of some third year work, which created that “what's the use” feeling, we were somewhat inspired by the fact that they too were the same as us upon their arrival at Pratt Institute. {Everything has changed now and most of us can now cut a mean frisket or do a Cassan- dre, Benrimo or Beale almost as well as they can them- selves. Our bodies have proven fit for a career more strenuous than art. They met the acid test during two years of ear-pounding lectures, a year of globe-trotting field trips and ten months of eye splitting and squinting doing third year lettering. Even the loss of precious sleep through Mr. Ajootian’s insistence that we “get up early in the morning and beat the curve of any given scapular” has not left its mark on us. {If our three years together have taught us nothing else they have at least given us a better knowledge of geography. The glories of home towns and states have been expounded until we all feel like neighbors in each other’s sections. The Yankees among us have finally succeeded in downing our lone rebel repre- sentative. {Our perennial president, Jack Wilhelm, be- came a fixture in office, succeeding himself twice. Long John and Tad Smith held a place in varsity basketball and the Dixie one in every interclass team on the records. The latter won more trinkets than his watch chain is capable of holding. {Taubert, Resnik, Robbins and Sherry were the lucky ones to gain mentions in some of the many contests we participated in. Everyone, however, was repre- sented at one time or another in the scores of exhibits, selections and hangings (pictures) that occurred during our stay. {[Now we must say good-by to a place that we are all going to miss sincerely. It all has been swell. Make way out there in the field. 39 ADVERTISING IIIX ... Axrscuun, Epwin J., “Edwin.” 294 Nichols Ave., Cypress Hills, N. Y.

Contrary to all belief that architects know less about more and more, it can be honestly said that we can completely design any- thing from a one-room shack to a complete town housing 50,000 people. In all probability we will never get the chance to do so again, but it’s fun throwing Empire State buildings around. { “‘ Colonial” iceboxes, as designed by our worthy president, Osborne, are a little more on our side of the fence. It would be surprising if he suddenly became a rabid “modernist”’; we don’t have many in our class. We are of the conservative type and are not prone to accept any new trend unless it has been proved to be a happy combination of utility and beauty. On the other hand, Mr. Steinert balances the class scales by having a different type of attack on all his problems. He is a complete “modernist”’ or, rather, he has so-called broad-minded ideas on accepting modern innovations. We must not forget our dear and most precious treasurer, Carstairs, better known as “‘Esquire Jr.” If taste in dress were the only requirement to become an architect, he would by far surpass us all. Chanas is our model for in- dustrious work, although philosophically he is a bit off. Crossen is our pretty boy and gets all of our dates for us when we’re in a pinch. Adelman came to our class this year in hopes of learning but has found himself teaching us newer ideas. Vuinovich is our T. A. and what we might call foreign diplomat. Lawrence is our silent man who takes pity on all of our jokes, laughing only to make us feel at home. Last but not least we have Young, our perpetual lady killer. Without him our work would go dead on our boards. It probably will be anyway, after we get out. Dreams are wonderful! 44 ARCHITECTURE III ... Cansrairs, Ropert, “Sneezy.” 225 Cooper St., Brooklyn, N.

Wefeel fortunate in being the class whose graduation initiates a new era in the Architectural Department, the first group to com- plete the four year course and to receive the degree of Bachelor of Architecture. The former course of three years has been lengthened by an additional year to make a previously good course into one that now compares favor- ably with any in the country. Before graduation each member of the group was required to gain a short period of professional experience. Thus with greater knowledge of the standards and conditions of the professional world, we feel equipped with a greater degree of confidence to face the problems before us. § To the members of the faculty we wish to express our gratitude for their willing co-operation, able instruction and spirit of fellowship. They have given wholeheartedly of their time and learning in their various professional fields. Upon them has rested the burden of many adjustments necessary through the new course, and we cannot help but feel that they have proved themselves more than equal to the task. We, the students, can attest to the fact that there were no changes in the type of practical training characteristic of the Institute when the adjustments were made. {As for our part, we hope we have done our share in assisting the faculty to bring about this adjustment of the curriculum and include in it the necessary cultural subjects required for the degree. We feel sure that we may look back upon this year as the beginning of a truly greater, more active and more thoroughly founded department, one which will continue to produce graduates fully equipped to cope with the problems of an ever-changing architectural world. 46 ARCHITECTURE IV ...

This class is significant in the mechanics of the department since it is the first to be graduated from the two-year course emphasizing merchandise consciousness. ‘This change more closely relates the study of decoration to its professional practice and will enable graduates to be more readily absorbed by the trade. With this departmental change of policy came the introduction of new courses—Architec- tural Backgrounds, Materials of Decoration, and Mer- chandising in the Decorative Styles. Probably the course of greatest value was a continuation from the first year— Museum Research. Here, with instructor supervision, acquaintance was made with the best expressions of the art of the past. Student associations with “objets d’art” may first foster a desire for personal and professional study and satisfaction. Also of value are contact-trips to specialized establishments, and to events of pure cultural advantage. Men and women outstanding in fields asso- ciated with decoration were procured as guest lecturers. The twenty-two members of the class will be fitted for professional service in June. Of these, several will probably return for postgraduation specialization. 56 ali ten @ Riek _| INTERIOR DECORATION II... Asranam, Mipren, “Millie.” 1184 E. 96 St., Brooklyn, N.

A few lines on our class, a short résumé, so that’s what you want? Well, here’s what I'd say: first Harriet, our president, blonde and charming, with a mania for belts, their width alarming. Next comes Eleanor, a small spitfire, then Helen with eyes bluest of all, who likes any boy about six feet tall. Our Millie Kae is the class speed king; her hopes seem to be for a wedding ring. Next comes Dorie, a whiz with a brush; one look at her work and the rest of us hush. Marge is the gal with eyes all a-twinkle, and when she laughs, my, how they crinkle! Judy’s the champ who won the gold cup in the Sach’s Competition; good work, keep it up. Lillian’s the girl with all the pep; play ‘“‘Dipsy Doodle” and watch her step! Shirley is a new girl in our class, she really works and deserves to pass. And then there’s “Rochester,” our whistling friend, who does swell work that will show in the end. Sybil’s the lady you don’t hear much from, but we all stand in awe of her work when it’s done. Louise is a girl that’s really sweet, a pal to all and so-00-0 petite. And then there’s “Kid Carson,” who causes a riot by talking each time she ought to be quiet. For our Spanish influence we have George Riedell; when he croons “Rancho Grande” he’s just simply swell. A good decorator our Jacques will be if he can be sure of his afternoon tea. Bonnell is our nineteenth century lad, “The Bird in the Gilded Cage” always makes him glad. And that takes care of Interior Three, good decorators all we hope to be. 60 INTERIOR DECORATION III ... Carson, C. Ruru, “Kid.” 271 Ryerson St., Brooklyn, N. Y.

On Sept. 12, 1935, some seventy-five of us arrived at the offices of the Pratt Lines on Ryerson St., Brooklyn. We were prepared to follow a three-year course and con- sequently were burdened with duffel, both necessary and otherwise. We were assigned to the ship, “Illustration I” and upon stowing our belongings we mustered on deck and almost immediately divided into two watches known as, “I A” and “I B.” The “Illustration I” lay in port for a day or so taking on extra supplies and allowing the men to become acquainted with their posts. On the third day we received our orders to man the sails and weigh anchor. Now we were under way. § Our officers were a fine body—competent and trained to their jobs. Out- standing among them was our navigator, Miss Everest, to whom we now raise our caps for the fine style in which she has kept our three ships in as many years on their proper courses. Because of her skill we have never once run aground, let alone strike a hidden reef of which there have been many. § For most of the trip, the days were sunny and the weather clear. Naturally, there were some storms, usually, however, of short duration. One of these arose quite suddenly one morning when Mr. Foster, an officer who saw to it that we minded our P’s and Q’s, found a member of the crew beating out the “Anvil Chorus” on a large copper kettle. {September °36 found us aboard the “Tilustration Il” with quite a change in officers and crew. The majority of the men deserted to the ‘Advertising Line’’—although they were partially replaced by some newcomers. This trip was fairly uneventful as there was very little display of tempests. {At present we are cover- ing ground rapidly on the fine and fast “Illustration IIT,” and expect to reach port early in June, thus terminating a fine experience which has been all too short. 4% 63 PICTORIAL ILLUSTRATION III ...

In a few short months we will regretfully take our leave of Pratt, armed with experiences and information which will help us make our mark in the illustration world. The three years of study and fun have passed with un- believable swiftness, and yet we feel so familiar, so “at home” in our Alma Mater that it seems we have spent a lifetime within its friendly portals. {We look back on that first year with the tolerance and fond understanding with which an adult gazes reminiscently at his childhood. “That irrepressible IX class’? we were known as then. Many an instructor gazed skyward imploringly and won- dered if we would ever grow up. Upon entering our second year, the choosing of our desired path in the art world brought forcibly home to us the realization that there should be time for work as well as play. With sincerity and seriousness of purpose we applied ourselves diligently to our tasks, and there finally dawned upon us the great truth that eventually breaks upon all aspiring artists, that is, that you get out of art only what you put into it. (The quiet routine of everyday work was considerably enlivened by heated discussions concerning Art (with a capital “A”’); discussions that probably have been in- dulged in since the first two artists got together. “The Great Grey Control Controversy” will go down in history as the topic that was most and longest debated. (Now, in our last year at Pratt, we realize what a tremendous and vital factor these three years have been and will continue to be in our lives. Through the invaluable in- struction and help of fine, understanding teachers and professional artists, we have been equipped not only with information, but with ideals and standards of achievement which we will ever keep before us in our climb to our goal of success.

A vast change has taken place in the Teacher Training Depart- ment in the last few years. It has manifested itself in a more closely organized department and in “coming of age’’ by the granting of a Baccalaureate degree. Through- out this period of progress our class has been a major unit. In many of the changes we have taken an active part. {We entered Pratt with the intention of staying only three years, but to meet the demands of a rising pro- fessional level, the trustees recommended that the program be extended to a four-year course and a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Art Education be given to the graduates. {Our class has been the forerunner of many new move- ments. As sophomore students, under the direction of Dr. Bryan, we organized the Pratt Chapter of the Junior Eastern Arts Association at a meeting on May 10, 1936, in Memorial Hall. From this small body, the Pratt Chapter has grown and spread its ideas to other schools where similar organizations have been founded. The J.E.A.A. is now one of the most prominent functions within the Teacher Training Department helping each student gain a professional attitude as well as providing opportunities for social development. It is our hope that this organiza- tion will continue to grow, establishing ever-heightening goals. {With the thirteen members of our class are thirteen individual personalities. Some have distinguished them- selves in dramatics, some in sports, and others in the literary field. Some of the most outstanding personalities are John Mardy, who has helped to write the athletic his- tory of Pratt through his contributions in the field of basketball, Charles Roman and Frank Walter, who have taken charge of the scenery for numerous Pratt produc- tions, and many others who have held official positions in the Junior Eastern Arts Association. {It is with anxiety and yet with regretfulness that we leave Pratt. Anxiety to accomplish great things in the teaching field, and re- gretting that we must part with our many friends. TEACHER TRAINING IV ... Burvs, Avserta, “Berta.” Canisteo, N. Y.

There are no greater callings for men or for women than those requiring an intelligent under- standing of any one or all three, and the need for artists in these phases of life is one of the greatest in our country. The homely facts of life, and all that pertain thereto, should furnish the stabilizing influences that are so much needed in this world of today. You, who are going out from the School, are doubly prepared to meet the problems awaiting you. You are trained and prepared not only for professional careers but also in the broader aspects of everyday living. You are also prepared to pass on to the next generation some of those fundamentals by which the human race progresses. Frepertc W. Howe, Director. Frederic William Howe was appointed as Director of the School of Household Science and Arts in July 1921. He will retire from that office in June of this year. {An alumnus of the University of New Hampshire, he taught first at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and then at the Framingham Normal School in Massachusetts, where he was head of the Chemistry department. From there he came to Pratt Institute. {Thoroughly in sympathy with the educational ideas of the Founder, and believing that to “learn by doing” is the soundest of educational principles, Mr. Howe has consistently applied these ideas in every department of the school, and adapted them to meet modern needs. He has constantly taught that education itself is as broad as life is long and that every phase of living offers a rich field for endeavor to both scientist and artist. {The School staff, the students and all those who have been graduated during Mr. Howe’s directorship, will think of him always as a successful administrator, a keen interpreter of human nature, a wise counsellor, and a sympathetic and understanding friend.

The time is 1948. The place, Pratt Institute. The occasion, a reunion of the Dietetics Class of 1938. The conversation: { ‘Do you remember the Show Boat party we gave to the Juniors, with Eleanor Meuser as Captain Henry and Pamela Anderson as the villain? Did any mustache ever curl more viciously than Pam’s? Did the real Captain Henry ever get more applause than Eleanor? No, on both counts! Were any costumes ever more hilariously put together than the ones in the tableaux) Do you remember what we did when we wanted a horse for one of the tableaux and couldn’t get a costume? We just printed the word “horse” on a cardboard and hung it around someone’s neck. Did the Floradora girls get a big hand? Yes, indeed! From the faculty as well as the students. Were the Floradora girls as good as the Rockettes? Well ——, the Rockettes re- hearse all day and, anyhow, that’s their business. After all, we were studying to be dietitians, not dancers. Remember when we served the taffy apples? Juniors and Seniors alike went around with their jaws stuck together, unable to utter a word. Did everyone have fun? We think so.” ‘Remember when the H. S. A. School was trying to raise funds for the very smoking room in which we are now sitting? We held an auction sale, selling unclaimed articles which had been found during the year. Everything from a jar of rejuvenating cream to a diamond ring. Who got the rejuvenating cream) Looking around now, ten years later, it would seem that we all had partaken gener- ously of that very same cream, for we look the same, to each other, as we did in our Senior year.” {{But, to revert to 1938 and to strike a more serious note, we want to say how much we will miss Pratt Institute when we leave it in June, and are already looking forward to our class reunions. {We feel that it would not be amiss to express a word of gratitude to the faculty for the kindness they have shown us and to the Pratt family for having made Pratt Institute the fine and pleasant school it is. 90 DIETETICS II ...

The dressmaking class entered Pratt Institute with open minds eager to work and to acquire skill in the ancient art of sewing and fine needle- work. {Early in the month of October we held our class elections. Mary Ann Palmer was chosen for President; Dorothy Barnes for Vice-President; Beatrice Claudio for Treasurer and Rita Slowey for Secretary. Class meetings were held every two weeks at which all problems facing students were discussed. A budget was proposed thereby enabling every student to meet her class dues. {|The class attended the Faculty Tea where they were introduced to their superiors and teachers and where amid friendly surroundings they became better acquainted with their schoolmates. {With the start of a new term many changes took place. The two divisions of Dressmakers were united under the very able supervision of Miss Clark and her assistant Miss Morgan. Dorothy Barnes ascended to the presidency upon the absence from school of our former president. We miss the smiling faces, sunny dispositions and delightful comradeship of those classmates who left school at the close of the first term. {Our class eagerly participated in all school activities. They enjoyed the school dances, the Artisan Club teas and our weekly Assemblies. The girls enjoyed the gym periods in which volleyball, swimming and hockey were offered to them as well as routine exercises and diversified types of danc- ing. {As we leave Pratt Institute we wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to all those who have willingly and un- tiringly given their time and energy toward our education. We leave with our minds a little more nurtured and ma- tured and with happy memories of days that passed pleasantly but only too quickly. And so we bid Pratt Institute a fond adieu. 103 DRESSMAKING ... Barnes, Dororny. 32 Schuyler Ave., Rockville Centre, N. Y.

We’ve learned that food can be served both raw and cooked, with some of both each day—the trick is how much and what. We learned that nutrition was the guide, with cooking lessons galore to gain some perfection, at least enough to make a meal our delight and pride. {|Furniture, draperies, rugs, and bric-a- brac just don’t grow in houses. Neither does a good wind blow them in. We’ve learned that there are some good art principles that, together with a lot of sheer effort, can make a home a really livable place. §{Clothes, it seems, are made with yards and yards of cloth, pricked fingers, and fun. The dresses we made were just right for us—with all hooks, zippers, and snaps sewed to stay on! 4 Visits to nursery schools and children’s play centers proved to us that little folk need more than food and clothes to make them grow as they should. Habits, behavior, weight, and all, are important as can be. {We are told that just now all this does not seem so important as it will when “it is your own house, your own home, your own family.” But, for now and then, thanks to our Alma Mater. 108 HOMEMAKING ...

About thirty bewildered young people from homes in Washington, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and New England, as well as near-by New Jersey and Long Island, formed the Institutional Management Class in September. Since then we have been brought together by work and play into a group of twenty-five who feel that the Pratt section of Brooklyn is our second home. {Organization of the class took place in October and a round of activities began, the most important of which has been our “Cook’s Tour.” We don’t expect or even anticipate being remembered as ‘shining rays of intellectual light”? but we do want a few fleeting thoughts to rest upon the times we tore the cafe- teria apart only to reassemble it as a Chinese garden, Italian cellar, or New England kitchen on the occasions when the class served traditional dinners to an enthusiastic public. {Class work has been marked by several memor- able trips like the one to the Washington Market in the early morning hours, in fact in the middle of the night, when we had to leave our comfortable beds to go out into the chilly blackness. Several times a noisy group of us invaded a famous foreign restaurant to sample the culinary triumphs of other nations. Our field trips, while regular class work, have provided some diverting mornings. {Socially, the class has limited its activities, up to this time, to a tea at which we had as our guests the faculty members who so graciously helped us to feel at home in the fall by similarly entertaining for us.

Mr. Edward F.

On the first of July Mr. William W. Shirley, now head of the Science and Technology Reference Room of the Library, will succeed Mr. Stevens as Director, and Miss Agnes Camilla Hansen, at present Instructor in the School, will follow Miss Rathbone as Associate Director. {As editor of the first attempt at a students’ annual for Pratt Institute in 1911, the retiring Director commends to future Prattonias the new administrators of the Library School.

Whenthetwenty- eight students comprising the Class of 1938, School of Library Science, Pratt Institute, met for the first time in September, they quickly realized they were a special student group—the last to be welcomed to the Library School by Dr. Edward F. Stevens and Miss Josephine Adams Rathbone, the last to be among those who have had the great privilege of studying under them. {Although we had gathered from the four quarters of the continent (New England, Cuba, California and British Columbia, all being represented) we became “class conscious” almost overnight. By the time the Graduates’ reception was held we were all on “‘first-name” terms. § The first term was marked by the invention of the Weed spiral cross-reference system and apperceptive filing. Miss Rathbone’s delightful teas, the ine vitable examinations, and the Christmas party given to the class by Miss Rathbone, Miss Hansen and Miss Kinloch brought us to the Christmas holidays. {During the second term we were “given furiously”’ to cataloguing. May we express our admiration for our various ‘‘chiefs.’’ We did discuss giving them a fireman’s helmet as a badge of office—alas! We were all too busy to see to the purchasing thereof. {Almost before we knew it, we were in the thick of examinations again, with the high light of the year—the spring trip—just around the corner. This year the class visited Trenton, Philadelphia, Wash- ington and Baltimore. {The Graduates’ annual meeting and luncheon was especially memorable, with the many expressions of affection and gratitude to Dr. Stevens and Miss Rathbone for the years of splendid service given by them to the Library School. {To their successors, Mr. William Shirley and Miss Agnes Camilla Hansen, both of whom we already proudly claim as “ours,” go our affection and congratulations. We leave them to future students as a very valuable legacy, and we know the School of Library Science is in safe hands. It has been a glorious year. LIBRARY SCIENCE ... Anprews, Heven Louse.

This new feature is not to displace the customary award of the Institute’s certificate for the completion of the School’s three-year courses which are to be strongly maintained. Henceforth, their graduates will have the option of entering employment directly or of continuing for a fourth year and degree, at once, or after one or more intervening years in employment. Our three-year courses, by specially adapted means, are able to approximate in content and effectiveness the four-year courses characteristic of most of this country’s engineering colleges. Our fourth year is unique in that it is devoted to advanced content beyond that of the usual under- graduate four years, being designed to round out an unusually full and efficient education for success in the field of engineering occupations. Our 1938 graduates, both three-year and four-year, will go forth with the high esteem of the School’s faculty, whose friendly interest and fond hopes will follow each and every one. SAMUEL S.

This, gentle reader, is a class history of those gentlemen known as the Chemical Engineers who did first enter the sacred and slightly chipped portals of dear old Pratt in °35. It is now °38 and we are on our way out; but be- fore we go, do you remember (and we do mean you!): {The number of strange faces that first day in school .. . The momentous discovery that there were females in the Art School... Mr. Schmidt’s staccato talks ... The tinkle of weights as they bounced merrily off the Physics Lab tables. . . . The slight (?) puzzlement over descriptive geometry . . . Those sudden flurries of work every six weeks... Savoy’s glowing reports of New York night life .. . Deep, dark doldrums derived from “D’s” ... Mr. Hertzler’s jokes, puh-lease . . . The never-ceasing vernacu- lar flow of Mr. Turner and Mr. Vanderbilt . . . Mr. Lambe’s classic crack about Mrs. Simpson, the day that picture was accidentally (?) flashed on the screen in Physics class . . . The baseball championship and Red Freedson pitching the first no-pants game... Doc Man- tell’s description of a catalyst . . . Those “‘Aahhh-Boom” reactions in the Chem Lab. ... The delightful questions of Monsieurs Smythe and Mann . . . Wolfing in front of the Art School... The balance room choir . . . The good old soul song at the Chem Dinner . . . Dr. Dixon’s laugh ... Walt Nichols’ mistaking Dr. Deschner for O’Flaherty ... Actually making money on a dance . . . Salls’ ape-man act which ended practically on Dr. Kinney’s lap . . . Mr. Miller’s slight digression on the love life of the spider ... The amazing disappearance of the tanning equipment —now you see it, now you don’t . . . Doc Rogers’ illness and his subsequent trip to Florida by which we lost the finest man we ever knew, the greatest instructor we ever had and the best chemist in the universe, at one and the same time. We’re rooting for you, Dad . . . And so long. 136 CHEMICAL ENGINEERING III ... Baxer, Micnaer H. I. “Mike the mad chemist.” 1020 Holt Sts Norfolk, Va.

Work books, experiments and more experiments piled like swelling waves over which our memories glide in lulling ecstasy as we recall the amusing antics and distinguishing personalities of our classmates. But, alas, we must put aside pleasant musings so that the tradition of the Elec- tricals may go on. In the words of the immortal Electricals who have preceded us—‘‘Go forth, Brothers, and bear thy fruit.” {Still the years roll on. Fruit has been borne. Encumbered no longer by perplexing experiments, deep problems in A.C. and diverging forces in mechanics, our memories return more mellowed but with no less freshness to the happy hours we spent at Pratt. Peculiar how they all flash before us in endless stream like the varied cars of a long freight train. Remember the dance we gave in °37) And Bob Bailey, just a little fellow, always managed to get tangled up in your feet. Harry Cotant, sure you remember—he was as tall as Bob was short, shooting pictures and looking austere at the A.I.E.E. meetings. Walter Bullock with the large P on his sweater. And how the ladies swooned when Charley Hubbard strolled by. Say, if anyone even mentions “here” how clearly you can see that big fellow from Illinois—what was his name? Oh yes, Howie Kenkle. Did you ever see Johnny Thomp- son when he wasn’t promoting something or when he had his tie crooked? And Ed Tracy handled practically every- thing with plenty of executive ability. Rain or shine Ed Sirotak stood out in front of the Men’s Club every noon selling lunches. Bud Williams managed to get to Baltimore quite a bit in those days. Had a girl down there —so he said.

Secretary—Treasurer ENGINEERING IV... “Guinea Pigs,” our adopted name, expresses some of the pride we feel in being members of the first class to receive degrees in Engineering at Pratt Institute. Unlike the guinea pig of science, how- ever, we do not suffer being the martyr of a new experi- ment. But, because of our participation in the new four- year course, we are more competently prepared to meet the exacting demands of industry today. {Three families make up our brood: the Mechanicals, the Electricals and the Chemicals. During the early weeks of our new con- glomeration, friendly rivalries predominated the at- mosphere of our relations, but animosities soon passed and left behind a mutual respect for all the phases of engineering. {We put much time and effort into our inter- class sports but, sad to say, the resulting output was not directly proportional to the input. Our bowling team, although one of the noisiest, was one of the poorest. The only team we could defeat consistently was the instruc- tors’, who were even noisier and evidently poorer. The class football team surprised even ourselves by finishing in second position; but still, we believe that sinister figures plotting in deep, dark dungeons turned the tide against us and spiked our threat—(please note, Gus). {We have made tremendous strides in knowledge since we came to Pratt, both in the practice of engineering and in learning about our fellow men. {To the Instructors, those long- suffering disciples of learning, we give our profound thanks for the knowledge and inspiration they have imparted to us, and for the interest and patience they have shown. To the Trustees we express our appreciation for their support and hope that some day we may bring honor to the school. For most of us class is over, but we shall remember the words of a very wise man, who said: “The more a man learns, the more he realizes how little he knows.” ENGINEERING FOURTH YEAR ...

Life at Pratt for the last two years has been a mixture of mirth, gaiety, and work, depending upon the student himself. With the conclusion of our second year, we can look back over our life here at Pratt and see more of it behind us than before us. QAfter the first year of rather vague maneuvering, we have at last found in the second the work for which we believe we are best suited. § With the able assistance and direction of our instructors, we have discovered that studying Advertising Design is more than learning to paint billboards. We have settled down to do our best in fulfilling the expectations of our parents, in- structors, and friends. Vast expectations, or so they seem to those of us who have burned the midnight oil ‘til many a morning. {Diligent as we have been, the year has been sprinkled with highlights, one of them being our field trip to Radio City Music Hall. We were not only taken on a thorough tour of the Hall, but were also allowed to view the entire program. {All in all it has been a happy and successful year. We are sincere in saying that we have all profited greatly from the fruits of it, both mentally and spiritually. 166 Davin V. V. RuGEN President Epwarp W. CHristorrers, JR. Vice-President Coury A. CAMPBELL Treasurer ARCHITECTURE II... Soon after the opening of school, plans were made to welcome the first- year class at the fall smoker. An effort to renew an old custom of presenting skits was abandoned at the last mo- ment in favor of a barrage of witticism from the faculty. The banquet was successful from every standpoint. The more serious students were able to carry away new thoughts in architecture as presented by a practising member of the profession, while those interested in making social contacts found opportunities at the German Amer- ican Club to bring home all they could carry. {Two trips taken this year, to the Williamsburg development and to the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, tempt a comparison of the architectural and social implications of each under- taking. Architecturally, St. John the Divine is an im- pressive expression of Gothic stone construction—a testimony of the industry of Ralph Adams Cram, his associates, and the donors, who, regardless of race or creed, have made substantial contributions. On the other hand, we bear the most profound respect’ for that phase of government administration which has so efficiently supervised the slum clearance project. The fullness to which these units serve their purpose leaves no doubt as to their need, and no doubt as to the altruism involving their motivation. §A résumé of the high lights of our class history read so recently after the year’s completion is a somewhat characterless description of events that are still fresh in our minds. However, if, like man and dog on a walk, your thoughts race out to mull over more personal memories beyond the ken of this pen, half the purpose of this history will be served. Then ten, fifteen, or twenty years from now, when memories are faded and life pale beside your success, perhaps you will take an innocuous delight in rereading and recalling this year at Pratt Institute. 167 ARCHITECTURE II...

We are the stu- dents, the architects of tomorrow who, with pardonable pride, shall forever remember our first year at Pratt. {When we sat down in “Sleepy Hollow” with a strange feeling in our hearts and were presented with our courses, it all appeared to be a mighty maze. But as the weeks rolled into months we found that it was not without a plan. Here, we thought, was more work than there was in the world. Our chagrin was, however, only momentary, and we were soon lost in the maze of unceasing wonders. {It was our profound pleasure to become associated with men who were sincerely interested in us and in our work. To our delight, the upper classmen were ever willing to lend a helping hand. This, we assure them, was most appreci- ated. §{Remember, how along with our present brethren, we constantly heard of our absent members Cohon and Kspisito. Let us observe a minute of silence in their honor. Recalling outstanding people of our class, we can’t help remembering the nailing of Rosabel Robbins’ desk. Personally we suspect Lewis (the skiing was marvelous) Teague. Or Arnold Breitman’s jokes and Bob Colby’s puns. We still say that Thomas Hood is the only man that can pun. Daubon coined a new word when he pronounced the “W” in sword. And Erwin O.’s “wife.’’ Remember Cleveland, Keyes and Shields’ weekly safari to our char- coal class? {Looking back, we feel a certain sadness that we have passed a never-to-be-forgotten year with its enlightening defeats and inspiring triumphs. Its memories have been infused in us. And looking ahead we see greater fields to conquer. RicHarp BELTRAN President KENNETH SHENTON Vice-President ANNE KNIGHT Secretary—Treasurer ILLUSTRATION EDX... s- Ours “second year at Pratt Institute has been completed and with it goes some of the carefreeness of youth. School now seems less like play and becomes more the honest and hard work of youth preparing for the competition of later life. Truly, we are equipping ourselves to go out into the workaday world and make something of ourselves, which is an ideal rather than a platitude. Our goal is nearer and it has be- come more realistic as our second year lies behind us. Our hours of study have had real meaning as we are going to earn a living and spend most of our working days doing the things for which we are now preparing a sound funda- mental basis. Although we have settled down we are still imbued with the love of art for art’s sake as well as our own. Despite the fact that we are still learning the A B C’s of our vocation we are closer to the actual application of our knowledge and talent. While not all of us who com- pleted the first year have completed the second year those of us who have can feel proud of our accomplishments, but still not lose sight of what lies before us. However crude our work may be, it does not stand as a criterion, rather it is the guidance and direction we are receiving from the Institute which destines our ultimate aims. As the old saying goes, “Not failure, but low of aim is crime.” Pratt has taught us to aim high when we leave the folds of school and gain the experience school cannot give us. Now that our last year lies before us, we view, both in retrospect and in anticipation, our work. Promises may be mad e and promises may be broken, but over all the tumult lies greater perfection—to which we aim. 171 ILLUSTRATION IIX ... Altman, Edward Michael 981 Main St., Clinton, Mass.

It would be very difficult, nay impossible, to describe as a whole the class of Illustration IA, because of the many different person- alities which make up the group. For this reason we shall describe an afternoon when each individual is running true to form. {Generally the center of the room is monopo- lized by a choral group that swings out on “ Bei Mir Bist du Shéen” accompanied by Keyser on the paintbox a la Krupa. §In one corner we find a small group surrounding Guthrie and Perkins who are arguing heatedly on the futility of life. {Maskaly has Muckstadt and Geisler spellbound with his adventures as a reporter and Mc- Laughlin has Doyle wedged in a corner and is telling one of his jokes(?) while Avison’s ‘‘Ha, ha; that’s a good one” rings out with Fromkin’s echo close behind. § Brown is raving about the girlie shows and Bryant and Jenks are reading letters from their girls to each other while Killison wanders through the tumult quoting “Snow White” word for word; (he especially likes to quote ““Dopey’’). A small group of uninterested and bored spectators are the target of Cohen’s elocutionary efforts and Kovalenko stomps off muttering something about “true art.” About this time “pre” Hotchkiss roars forth an order for quiet and turns back to resume his activities in the chorus. O’Malley’s absence is not noticed. Meantime the instructor, who had been occupied with one of his myriad duties, has returned. He surveys the room like a child watching a three-ring circus. He is spotted! Cohen finds himself talk- ing at a blank wall. The Dwarfs are saved from one of Sneezy’s hurricanes. McLaughlin is foiled again. Keyser is now playing a solo. Oh, well! We might as well indulge in a bit of schoolwork! WILuiAM RosivacH President FRANCES WEHRELL Vice-President DorotrHy SWEENEY Secretary Epwin Rossins Treasurer ILLUSTRATION IB ..._ School. Bliss. Joy. Oh! Pratt. Here today—gone tomorrow. This year has been a pleasant one, though with the sweet is always the bitter such as Mr. Petersen saying we are the silliest class; Miss Ashbrook accusing us of being the noisiest; Mr. Graves calling us the cutest and Mr. Boudreau flattering us as being the greatest class. {Excerpts from our diary: {|The Friday—Illustration IB arrives en masse and hears “do’s” and “don’ts” from Mr. Boudreau after which there is a Cook’s tour of the Institute. Very baffling. {September 13— September in the Rain’’—what a wet reception. Also, we go to the museum. Reardon’s hair didn’t run! {September 14—Much sneezing because of yesterday. {September 15—Is our face red? First life class today. {September 16—Mr. Petersen’s first lecture. {September 17—Mr. Herman pulls the postage-stamp gag on Schermer- horn. {|We are a versatile class. Rain doesn’t phase us nor lectures nor smoking rules, but when Goodman came to town we took it on the run. It seems that Pratt changes one and so it has us. For example, we have gone from “September in the Rain”’ to “June among the Roses” — waiting for the elevator—walking up and down stairs— attending classes—cutting demure Sastrom too sharply —shaves to mustaches—anatomy—bafflement—enlighten- ment. {|So have we changed and improved and in two more years we will be ready for the turning point, but watch these members: {Bobette—Keep your eye on her. §{Rob- bins—The boy with hand-knitted socks. §{Ward—Barber- shop shy. {|Rosivach—Emerged from the battle with the presidency. { West—85 in color theory and color blind, by Gosh! {{Scala—The “Jenny Lind” of IB. 3 g g ¢ a ILLUSTRATION IB... = Top Row—Strimban, Teitelman, Revell, Hastings, Schermerhorn, Strauss, Todaro, Ward.

Prattonia: Just a line to let you know how a real “ honest- ta-gosh’’ Freshman Class feels on losing its standing as “oreenies.” We've heard (from certain upper classmen) that a Freshman’s spirit is broken after the first term. No doubt, no doubt. However, most of us still have gleams of hope flickering in our starry (not starey) eyes. {JJudging from the letter so far you must have decided we were a crowd of gals (one man in our Structural Rep class, tho!). You might be interested to know that we've built quite a niche for ourselves over in the gym as champs of this “n’ that. Hockey, volleyball, swimming and cheerleading are just kid stuff to us. § Practicing the first week, we decided that Lucia Phillips, Marion Grove, Nat Hoagland, Tex Haile and Helen Cavaney looked innocent enough to have class offices forced upon them easily. {[Sadly enough, some of our classmates have departed thru the dear portals ne’er to return. You know—other schools and stuff. Next year we fear marriage will have nipped quite a few from our midst. {] Well, here it is, our Freshman year nearly over and we're still going strong. We must put our dinks and bows on the shelf along with our cloak of dignity. We've observed things at Pratt entirely necessary to stu- dent life and activity— 1. Act goofier and giggle louder each successive year at Pratt. §2. Always eat apples from the slot machine during rest periods. {[3. The best place to meet an engineer is in front of the Art School. {With sincerest apologies for stepping on your toes, (Signed) “The Freshies of 37.” JoHN FISCHETTI President Joun DoNALDSON Vice-President Miriam ELLMAN Secretary—Treasurer ILLUSTRATION IX ... Forty-two brand- new students filled with hope, happiness and heads chock full of brand-new ideas (we hope) had the good fortune of entering Pratt Institute. {Encouraged by a heart to heart, straight from the shoulder talk delivered by Mr. Boudreau, Director of the Art School, the new students awaited eagerly the new routine. § The first-year stu- dents are ably assisted by Miss Everest, Supervisor of Illustration, to whom they bring all of their problems. We of the first year admit that we may be a little hazy in the matter of obtaining assignments correctly. but with a little time and Miss Everest’s help we hope to over- come that difficulty. {At first the entire group entered the different classes sheepishly, chatting nervously with one another. But a tea, run by the school, at the Women’s Club gave us a little confidence and a more intimate knowledge of each other. § The class decided to hold an informal téte-a-téte a little later with just the members of the class present. With Miss Everest’s permission we did just that at the Women’s Club. Quite a few hidden talents were disclosed before the night was over. We learned that Don Berry, our Prattonia Representative, was quite a hand at mixing a salad, ah, mais oui, a salad! Ed Monroe’s ball-bearinged-truck-on-down-hips! Annette Kloss’ smooth, gliding rhythm on the dance floor! Grace Kelly’s cooking! Margaret Burke’s Big Appling! Ruth Shedd’s charming set-you-at-your-ease chatter! And, Sacré Bleu! I ’ave not theenk! Little Jake Getman’s hair slicked down and his keen sense of smell that led him down faultlessly to the kitchen! §{Ah! but to delve into the hidden mines of talent of the IX students would take pages and pages to say nothing of the years. Sufficient to say that, as a group, and individually, the first-year stu- dents are strong both in character and volition and that they will absorb whatever Pratt Institute has to offer just as surely as a blotter absorbs the ink we spill. The gist of which is, just give us a little time! So en avant, la classe, bonne chance! 179 ILLUSTRATION IX... Klein. Second Row—Terrell, Mann, Cane, Johnson, Kelly, Burke, Rand, Lupo, Gold.

President FRANK BIANCHI Vice-President Purititre HouNsELL Secretary JEAN MuNnrROoE Treasurer INDUSTRIAL DESIGN II... On Sep- tember 15, 1937, our class assembled in the Industrial Design room—to heck with that—all class histories start that way. {While we were all being greeted by Mr. Dohner the report of a “muzzle-loader”’ shattered the silence, and “Two-Gun Henebry”’ sifted into the room. Stamping the mud off his feet, he casually assured El Glucko that there really was no sense in hiding, or was he doing his two dimensionals under the table with Alice? Eddy Grahn, our one and only Scandinavian, has turned into a three- dimensional Swede—a cube head since last year. Fatima, who is designing pyramid perfume bottles, wonders if it would be uncanny to ask. Who is the cream that goes with “Peaches” Reich? Could it be Sylvia? {[Amid the confusion the telephone rings and is answered by “Spring- heel’? Woessner. It is for Shelley but he can’t be found. Probably he is out on the back porch with the Steup. A noise coming from the corner proved to be Buschman sing- ing “I wish I never Osborne.” This, however, was soon terminated by streamlined clay objects hurled by Sobel- man and Washington. § Well, it is now four o'clock and we must end this essay—wait—hold the press—the door has just opened and in walks the Perl of our class, Walt, and Ruth Spear, who have the habit of getting to class just in time to leave again. We have so many potential genii in our class, we can’t hope to mention them all; but we cannot close without mentioning E. W. Harrison, A.B., who graduated from college “ Meritus Dictu.” 182 Rosert R. Waite President JAMES CHESTERLEY Vice-President Epita JUNGMEIER Secretary—Treasurer INDUSTRIAL DESIGN I... Dear Mrs. Mulloy and Mr. Dohner: {Inasmuch as you may be surprised to see this letter appearing here we wish to apologize for posting it to the public. In addition, may we add that it might appear a bit abstract in both compo- sition and thought. {The reason we are writing this letter is that we believe it would interest you to know what has been going on within your little problem class during the past year. {Upon our arrival at school in September we were of the opinion that we were the answer to your prayers . . . now we are rather dubious (or assured). Re- member how shy we were and the way we trod the halls and slithered into the classrooms? How funny it was trying to find Pratt! One member of the class thought the hospital on DeKalb Ave. was the Institute! (They do resemble each other, don’t they?) There was the anticipation of Christ- mas vacation. And that night so sleepless when the History of Art notes were due. Last but not least came the days of exams, and this brings to mind “Black Friday,” the day we received our first marks. From here on we under- stood completely the theory of “Color Psychology ”—that is to say, how red can make a person feel blue. {‘Tottering through the first semester and entering the second semester without having anyone fall behind made us more indus- trious. Now that we had become acclimated to Pratt and the “candy factory”’ atmosphere, out of thin air came that most dangerous and contagious spring fever to blight our second semester. {In closing may we say that we feel that we have had a most interesting year and that without a doubt it has changed the path of our life’s work to that of a higher standard. This ends the letter except for the “Exhibition”’—which has us worried. (Sincerely, In- dustrial Design I. 183 INDUSTRIAL DESIGN I... Andrews, Howard S.

The activities of this Interior Decoration class, both in and out of school, have been very successful to the entire group. {Before the Christmas holidays a spaghetti supper was served at the home of one of the class members. The delicious dish was prepared by none other than Gene Clinchard, the host, with the aid of one of the fairer sex, Helen Killion. Mr. Pratt attended as one of the class and as a chaperon. {In early October the members planned to have a roller-skating party. The class was to meet at eight o'clock at Columbus Circle. To make a long story short our class officers were the only ones to show up, they being Marcella Behringer, Leslie Hatton, Donald Vascimini, and Edward Skiffington. Actually it was an exaggerated officers’ meeting, but not withstanding the circumstances they managed to skate in Central Park for a while, falling every now and then, which added to the fun of the evening. {For many of us this year has been our first venture into the amazing wonders of New York City. We have visited the museums and have been able to study with great care some of the finest art treasures in the world. Not only have museums contributed to our knowledge, but so have the many furniture stores and factories, wherein we inspected the practical side of furniture making and design. {We must admit that we have experienced a little difficulty in adapting ourselves to our intensive course, but thanks to our able and patient faculty, we feel that we have done a fair job so far and that we have come through the first year well qualified to carry on in the rest of the years that we have here at Pratt. 186 DanteL ZOLNEROWICH President ELizABETH RORABACK Vice-President Lron RosENTHAL Secretary—Treasurer PICTORIAL ILLUSTRATION II... A bell clatters noisily, the model poses and the members of our class stroll in nonchalantly, disregarding completely the factor of time. Mr. Ajootian, slamming his fist into the palm of his hand, exclaims, “Come on, kiddies, let’s 20. Don’t take it so easy.” Chairs grate, pads fall, easels clatter in adjustment and then the class is silent. Mr. Ajootian has waited calmly for all of this noise and re- marks, “Now notice, class, there’s a swell pose.” An in- truder pops in and tells Mr. Ajootian he is wanted on the phone. Our dear teacher leaves us to the decomposing of his composition. {Roth, with his kibitzing remarks to McCann, creates confusion throughout the class. Zolnero- wich, our “Pacifist,” instead of crying out, ‘‘ Now, boys,” pleads with all the emotions of a lover and yells out, “Quiet, everybody, quiet. Please.” (Mr. Ajootian appears on the scene again and the confusion dies out rapidly. He starts where he left off. “Notice the inherent design of the rib cage and that flowing realignment of masses through space. To get intrinsic alignment and innate thythm, you have to be on your toes. You’ve got to THINK and THINK before you draw.’ {Again our most popular intruder calls our dear teacher to the phone. Zolnerowich again pleads, “Quiet, everybody, quiet, Pleeeeese.” Pettingell, seeing Zuckerberg looking for a place, offers him his seat, saying, “I have to go to work in the cafeteria.” Zucky looks at his watch and exclaims, “It’s only ten to eleven, what’s the rush?” Pettingell answers, ‘ Well, I have to comb my hair, don’t I)” {Slowly all this patter blends into a single cadence of sound with shreds of sentences occasionally tearing free for us to hear— “When you're out in the field” —‘‘Technique— Bah, ideas are what sell —“Ten dollars a week sweeping studio floors.”—‘‘She said I should study my anatomy——” {Bell rings an d Roth exclaims, “Rest please.” PICTORIAL ILLUSTRATION II ...

Farra PLUMBRIDGE President CONSTANCE GJOBYE Vice-President Ruta Kirparrick Secretary RENEE Barra Treasurer TEACHER TRAINING III ... Three years ago the portals of Pratt Institute opened wide to the knockings of our eager quest for learning and knowl- edge. And now we are framed in those portals with hope- fulness, confidence and the satisfaction of having spent the three happiest years of our lives in fruitful accomplish- ments. Though we were stronger in number three years ago than we are now, illness and unfortunate circum- stance have taken their toll, and now we number but fifteen all. {Teacher Training III has been fortunate in growing up with the Junior Eastern Arts Association and in participating in the meetings held for the purpose of improving the organization and publishing transactions. We have one more year to further the progressive junior group and then we enter the senior organization. May our interest increase with the years and with our growing knowledge. {Like the two T’s that symbolize our course stands T for that ever-faithful character the Teacher. We are not like the popular conception of the apple- consuming, scarecrow-emulating, hickory-stick-wielding, peering-over-horn-rimmed-spectacles characterization of the schoolteacher. Just to prove it, have you ever met anyone quite so quiet as Evelyn Meisel; or anyone so contented among such overwhelming forces of feminity as our two men, Schlosser and Wells; or such inseparability as Lorraine Van Gelderen and Henrietta Heffler display; or such a paragon of punctuality as our checker-inner, Jean Szatkowski, since her ‘‘athelete’’ won a watch for her; and the good-natured disposition of Ann Arctander. So you see we are really quite human after all. {And so we go—happily, merrily, freely and industriously—ever on to greater heights. And so may it be when we all gather again to work shoulder to shoulder down the last stretch. 190 Joun ALLAN President Lous SILVERSTEIN Vice-President Eprra WiLLGoos Secretary Min prep Dann Treasurer TEACHER TRAINING II ... Weof Teacher Training IT have long been conscious of a skeleton in our professional closet, a skeleton that still displays crow-footed eye sockets, discouraged shoulders, a puny frame, and an umbrella in her right hand. Even her skull is unusual; it never smiles. We, of Teacher Training IT, have pledged ourselves to the extermination of this popular conception of the schoolteacher, and are more than suc- cessful as numerous police sergeants, train conductors, and museum guides would testify. Resolving that the last thing an umbrellaed skeleton would do is the Big Apple in a subway station, we did the Big Apple and followed it with a square dance led by that corny conductor, Marge Sifflard. In a further attempt to turn the haggard smirk into a smile, Phil Teller bought her a drink in a dive while be-kilted Johnny Allan picketed outside with a sign, “This place unfair to distillers.” Whereupon Alberta Baron entered the plot and sheltered John from the above- mentioned police sergeant. {The rest of the class carried on and soon the city was agog: A sleepy guide at the Museum of Natural History was startled by an animated Buddha making faces; further inspection and a pin caused the god to fall apart into Louis Silverstein and A. Gordon Draper. Simultaneously, at the College Drug, Ruth Thorn- ton and Doris Dubovsky were giving us bigger conceptions of the schoolteacher . . . they were eating. While Muriel Zabitz read Esquire in a shadowy corner, Hal Simmons finished the last stitch of his Weave-It. On the corner, Mildred Dann was practicing jiu-jutsu with the lamp- post. We proclaim to the world that we now have the skeleton on the run. She was last seen in a Third Avenue pub with her foot caught in a swinging door.—Whew! What a nightmare! This homework does start things popping, doesn’t it. TEACHER Second Row—Baron, Hovey, Sifflard, Silverstein, Thatch, Pasternak, Dubovsky. First Row—Bristol, Dann, Allan, Willgoos, Tannenbaum.

The pro- verbial ‘“‘order out of chaos” came quickly to our class during its infant daze. Our senses were slightly numbed and bewildered at first—we almost doubted our eyes when we saw the twins! Yes, we have twins in our class. Our other senses were active, too. The smell and feel of new books and new art equipment stirred us to resolutions of great achievements. Within the very first week we learned that one does not swallow fixatif—one blows it. {The first J.E.A.A. party helped us to forget our freshman growing pains. We have come to the conclusion, rather pessimistic on the surface, that we must do our best, expect the worst, and be agreeably surprised at the result. {We are grateful for the help offered by the members of the faculty in solving our problems of orientation, organ- ization, and correlation. {We are proud of: Our erudite philosopher, Orville Killoran, who keeps us busy listening while he expounds theories about life in general and man’s mind in particular; little Dorothy Montross, who can carry more bundles than anyone else in the class; our two Canadians—calm, quiet Ellen Ross and Victor Vigeant, not so calm and quiet; the clowning of Jack George Washington Pagliuco, that genial gentleman of Mt. Vernon (via I.R.T.); Henry Ahrens, champion splasher of water colors; our pet racoons—Doris Skelly’s Benny and Eleanor Bunin’s Rastus; Nicholas Kochansky, our own Anthony Eden; the steadying influence of Ruth McCann; Evelyn Rensing’s mechanical mind; Irene Vail’s bubbling vivacity. {We are proud of the entire class, of its perseverance, and of its record. We are proud of Pratt and of Brooklyn, the only place in the world that has the Manhattan skyline for a backdrop. In short, we're happy about the whole thing. 194 Emity Moetier President CATHERINE BANKS Vice-President Emity Howarp Secretary Pry.us AMES ‘Treasurer COSTUME DESIGN I... Although many of the Junior Designers were newcomers to Pratt, a num- ber were advanced dressmaking students and from their vast experience proceeded to make the others acquainted with the ropes. {In the early part of the year officers were elected and the class began to function as one friendly and enthusiastic group. They soon gave evidence of their versatility in sports, social and scholastic activities with a well-rounded program of hard work, enthusiastic co- operation and a good share of fun. We admit we were rather stumped by the mysteries of draping muslin to look like a French import; and how to make a life class model look nonchalant in our resulting sketch; but this is now a thing of the past. The result of hectic hours of struggle and strain, of constant pin pricks and headaches seems to gratify our ““means to an end.’’ Comes the time in every Junior’s life when she is able to exclaim “true it up, in a voice filled with confidence but when she is able to say bravely, without a catch in her voice, ‘““THAT is the straight grain,” she has arrived! She is now the cap- tain of her soul and the master of her muslin’s fate. {We wish to extend our thanks to the Seniors for the delightful part they gave us, and hope that our Junior Jig lived up to their expectations. We’re proud of our Jig and wish to thank Gerry Velsor, Emily Marfillius and the two “Mary’s” for their splendid co-operation; with a special bravo to Gladys Fossum’s outstanding work on the financial end. To you of the Institute we say thanks for a grand year of your friendship, and we leave with the assurance that next year the Junior Costume Designers will really prove their salt. We regret that Mr. Howe is leaving us in the early stages of our acquaintanceship. We hope he'll remember his li'l Juniors and we promise to be exceptionally good for his sake. COSTUME DESIGN I...

At noon on September 14, 1937, the class of °39 was drawing near to its nativity, for on the following day it came into actual being, and the record of its life began. It was to be similar in many aspects to other classes, but its characteristics as an individual were yet to become apparent. {The first two Sunday afternoons, the Women’s Club graciously served tea to the new students, affording an opportunity for the begin- ning of many new and genial friendships. A continuation of introductions followed during the succeeding days. The last week in September was made momentous by the re- turn of the Seniors, whose friendly smile and helping hand enabled us to survive those first hectic days. {Founders Day, October 2nd, brought all the schools together at the Baptist Church. There we realized more fully than ever the respect and devotion that we as a body and as indi- viduals should have for Pratt Institute. {Early in the fall we had the honor of being entertained at tea by the faculty, escorted by our respective senior sisters. The Seniors’ “Show Boat” docked on November 4 with warm sunshine and laughter upon its decks. We, as honored guests, en- joyed wholeheartedly the jovial entertainment while we munched candied apples and doughnuts and drank cider. We had the rare treat of meeting the well-known immigrant family which we have since learned is never absent from such social functions. {To raise money for the class treas- uries, the novel idea of giving a “ Fire Sale’’ was presented and most successfully carried out. A substantial sum was realized from the sale of sundry articles donated by the students. Much merriment was afforded by the clever auctioneers. In the early part of March we returned the Seniors’ party by giving them a barn dance and ‘“‘Scay- enger Hunt.” With great effort the class talent assembled, and the result was a four-piece orchestra and chorus. The party was very successful, Seniors, faculty and Juniors all participating in the fun. GeEorGE A. Love President Cari W. BsorKSTEDT Vice-President Pau M. Teruizzi Secretary Aan LINCOLN Treasurer CHEMICAL ENGINEERING II ... The beginning of this school year found the class of °39 united for the first time in classroom as well as in extra- curricular activ ities. The strain of attempting to teach a class consisting solely of Chemists was undoubtedly felt by each instructor we had, but they bore their burden well, too well, in many cases. [The class enjoyed the monthly meetings of the Wohler Society from the first one, in September, when we helped welcome the incoming class into this society, to the last, which took the form of a banquet at the Chemists’ Club in New York. The “Chemists’ Hop,” sponsored by our third-year brethren in October, was one of the most successful dances given at Pratt in recent years. Those attending went home foot- sore, which means they had a “swell time.” The high light of the year from our point of view was the annual Wohler Society Formal Dance, given this year in May. It was looked forward to by the whole class. §In the field of sports, various members of the class distinguished them- selves in interclass touch football, basketball, handball, ping-pong, and baseball. Our basketball team got off to a bang-up start by dropping two games. The schedule then dropped us, but watch out for Chem °39 in the ping-pong tournament! We’re dark horses and plenty hot! Those who played on the class teams are Paul Terlizzi, Oscar Hamlin, James Madonna, James Moore, Carl Bjorkstedt, Wells Rockwell, David MacInnes, George Love, Al D’Agostino, Joe Martin, Frank Temmel, Al Lincoln, and Walter Kowalczyk. Despite the keenness of competition, a great deal of enjoyment and exercise were gotten out of all games by these men. May more come out next year to share in the play and fight for their class {Once again may we express our appreciation to the faculty for all aid they have given us toward the successful completion of this our second year at Pratt Institute. 201 CHEMICAL ENGINEERING II ...

September 14, 1937. The day memorial. Our first glimpse of the walls and chambers which were to become more endeared to us as time progressed. The pleasant confusion, muffled excitement and intrigue of new faces, new ac- quaintances and new friendships, all blended to engrave in our memories that memorable day. {One of our first activities was the organization of the class. Although our acquaintance with our fellow classmates was hardly sea- soned, our judgment in the selection of our leaders has proved of merit. Their guidance, efforts and conduct have been most commendable. { The class has been bestowed an unusual, to say the least, distinction. For the first occasion in the history of the school, a feminine student has been admitted to an engineering course. We feel honored to welcome Miss Suarez to our midst, but our masculine pride instills a wary attitude lest she should “show the boys up.”’ {Of course every class has its strong and weak points. We don’t like to boast (the modesty of a chemist) so we'll let you in on our athletic accomplish- ments. The basketball team reaped no honors in the inter- class tournaments, but it was industrious and willing. The table tennis team shows more promise, but only time will tell. {Our part in school life has been far from spec- tacular; but we feel certain that as we progress we will play an ever increasingly important role in its affairs. As the recipients of the heritage that is the Chemists’ we feel marked for distinction. ALPHONSE T. GoLLA President CarLeton H. RAwWcuirre Vice-President JosepH A. Marino Secretary James A. GuIpA Treasurer ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING IL ... Light heartedly, but not without comprehension we gathered at the gates of Pratt early in September to delve further into the realm of electricity. Realizing that the work in which we were now to endeavor would engulf and sway our lives, we viewed it with no little apprehension. Before we had progressed far into the sophomore year it was evident that we had reached the stage wherein the qualities of true engineers are fashioned. {In the field of athletics no stagnancy was experienced. The soccer team, headed by Ernest Hansche, showed marked liveliness and the basketball team under the guidance of John Lahti exhibited no lack of spirit. The basketball team, with the able backing of Joe Gag, Ernest Hansche, Walter Men- chuk, Bill Laier, Esko Helander, Bill Yanarella, Carleton Rawcliffe and Arthur Carlson, established itself in second place in the S T interclass championships. The football team, consisting of essentially the same personnel as the basketball team distinguished itself with no honors, but it will be remembered for its fighting resistance. {To cease our accomplishments with sports would be inconceivable. The versatility of the class may well be exemplified by the brilliant work of Bill Moulic in his discussions of radio before the Pratt branch of the A.1.E.E., and in the technical reports of Leonard Chobrutsky and Jim Guida. Gratifying interest in the opportunities to inspect. the power generating stations in the locale was shown by nearly every member of the class. {Now that we ap- proach the closing chapters of our second year, we can look back and view with gratification the accomplish- ments of our efforts. To attribute our progress solely to ourselves is erroneous and it is with deep appreciation that we salute the guidance of our instructors. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING II...

On September 14, 1937, about forty-five men, amazed and bewildered, stood gaping in front of the S. T. school, wondering just what it was all about and why the disgusted look from the upper-classmen. These forty-five young men, immediately stripped of any signs of bow ties or white shoes, were to form the class of 1940 of the I.E.E. After much confusion, about seventy-five per cent of them showed up in the right room to receive their instructions and schedules and to be greeted by Mr. Cook, the course supervisor. { Following recommendations of Mr. Cook, and with the able assistance of the second-year Electrical’s president, we managed to call together what was to be our first meeting. Our officers were then elected by an overwhelming majority, and all the representatives and athletic managers were later appointed by the president. At a later meeting, the president proposed a budget which was discussed and accepted by a majority of the class. As has happened every year, we were divided into five sections, which made it hard to keep in contact with one another, but a device to overcome this was adopted. {Our class has been well represented at all social and athletic activities of our first year at Pratt. We are proud of our officers and representatives, and of the work they have accomplished. We are indebted to our teachers who have thus far helped us in our struggle towards our goal. On September 24, 1937, the upper-classmen of the I.E.E. invited our class to a smoker where they welcomed us enthusiastically. Could we ask for more? It is only just, then, that we should honor them and ourselves by up- holding the high ideals of the I.E.E. and by making our class one to be envied and copied. With this thought, we struggle on to reach the goal. 208 Cuarues K. FENNEL President Rosert C. GREENE Vice-President GRAHAM F, WALLACE Secretary Water B. Morn ‘Treasurer MECHANICAL ENGINEERING II ... After being Pratt men for almost two years we feel worldly enough to write our memoirs. {Turning time back lab report by lab report, we see our instructors hailing us and saying they have never seen such a class. Every day, at first, we arrived here filled with a burning desire to do and become. (That means the same thing as “Be true to your so forth and so on.) To uphold traditions we learned to cut corners. There is nothing like t he thrill you get handing in a work book late, especially when it was done all the time and you just forgot the day it was due. (So you say.) There too, was the day you were sick. {So now we are second-year men (underscored.) We might even call ourselves engineers. We are almost fully developed in our talents. Day, Beckwith, Parmelee, Frapwell and others developed that extraordinary technique of sleeping with their eyes in rapt attention on the instructor. Mangani, by his own confession, our best basketball player, modestly asserts that he piloted our basketball, touch football, soccer and baseball teams to victory and near victory. We were also proficient in ping-pong, bowling and billiards. {We also were outstanding in that great indoor arena, the classroom. There, some learned that colored inks and tidy diagrams make lab reports pretty, others that profs just love to be talked to between classes and that pluggers are swell pals, ole pals. (Does anyone remember anything about water softening?) {And so having excelled, passed, conditioned, or flunked everything in Pratt or out, we are waiting with anxious anticipation our last year at Pratt where we have been two, going on three years, where your work is time even if you’re not—or something like that. ee EB , y q MECHANICAL Stack, Tenety, ENGINEERING II...

Like all class histories this should start by relating our bewilderment and stupidity on our first day at Pratt, but not for the sake of variety but for the sake of veracity we shan’t. Rather than revel in reminiscence let us move on and meet some of the boys. Of course, we can’t introduce all eighty of us to you but even so you have our word we're all regular fellows. Yes, sir, every last one of us. ‘|There’s Howard Jewett over by the Machinery Building. Bill’s following in the footsteps of his brother who was quite a boy around here in °36. Say, Clark, forget the Physics a moment and meet some old friends. Clark’s quite an authority on the Panama Canal and Panamanian customs. Where’s Ken Ranks? Don’t tell me our married man has broken down and migrated to the Art School. Hi there, George. That’s George MacPherson, our guiding genius this year. Doing a nice job too. Looks like our ace commuter from Jersey, Justy Hartshorne, sunning himself on the bench. Don’t see the rest of the fellows about. Guess they are in visualizing descriptive geometry so we won't bother them. { Too bad you have to move along, but when you're back next year remember to look us up. I'll say we'll be here. Yes, sir, hitting the ball and proving the invincibility of the Mechanical Engineers. See you later. Good luck! 214 S X AT a oe i me (FS.

Participation in some form of physical exercise is a vital and desirable part of our education. It is necessary if we are to maintain a healthy mind and sound body. It gives us excellent training in sportsmanship. It keeps our mental faculties awake and on the alert. In recog- nition of this the first-year students at Pratt Institute are given a compulsory course in hygiene and physical education. {There are two major sports at Pratt—basketball and baseball. There are also facilities for student participation in the following interclass and individual sports: basketball, soccer, touch football, handball, ping-pong, fencing, boxing, wrestling, baseball, swimming, billiards, bowling and for the female students: field hockey, volleyball, tap dancing and expressive dancing. {New and much needed equipment has been purchased for the gym. Through the co-operation of the Faculty Athletic Committee $200 was contributed toward the new equipment from the budget of the depart- ment of student activities, with the balance of the cost being borne by the Athletic Association’s surplus. {Most of the credit for this important step in furthering sports at Pratt belongs to Walter Bullock, who for three years has been a member of the Athletic Council. He has given unstintingly Coach McKillop Mr. F. D. Wright of his time and effort, for which he has earned the admiration of the entire student body. 4,A new sport, touch football, was successfully added this year. Two other popular sports were added to the interclass competition list, ping- pong and handball. Top Row—Schaefer, Demange, Freedson. Second Row— Yaneralla, MacInnes, Fay, Asadourian.

Pratt, long a potential power in basketball circles, exerted its superiority during the 1937-38 season and registered its most impressive record in many a year, seven victories in eleven games. Triumphs over the Alumni, Lafayette, Dickinson, Brooklyn Poly, Newark, N. Y. State, and Lowell Textile, gave the Gold and Black basketeers a most successful season. §Coach McKillop’s first call for candidates resulted in the largest turnout in Pratt court history. After several cuts the squad was reduced to ten men with numerous veterans dominating this collection. At the start of the season his team lined up with Captain Monte Levin, the most spirited man on the squad, and Howie Havemeyer as forwards. Gus Mangani and Johnny Mardy were at the guard positions. Jack Sherlock retained the pivot position; his size and jumping ability were an aid to the Black and Gold. Nick Zuraw, Joe Falotico, Dick Day, and Al Stewart comprised the remainder of Pratt’s most powerful team. §]The annual game with the Alumni opened the season. The Varsity, starting slowly, gathered momentum and in the second half the pace proved too much for the old grads, who succumbed before the offensive drive led by Monte Levin and opposed by Johnny Reiser. A nip and tuck battle played against St. John’s saw defeat for the home team. The game was well played, and the visitors found plenty of competition before they made the final victory. A strong team from Lafayette College bowed graciously and with a struggle to the cagers from Pratt. The scoring, led by the mad Russian from Pratt, added thrills and enjoyment to the play. {Bringing with them a reputation as one of the strongest teams in New Jersey, Dickinson team was completely baffled by the dazzling passwork and shot making of ‘‘Dead-eye Dick” Sherlock and Levin. |“ Big John” Mardy and Jack Sherlock com- bined their talents and accounted for twenty-eight of the forty-seven points scored for the Black and Gold against 221 their traditional rival, Brooklyn Poly. {Newark’s Jerseyites hung on desperately during the first half but a scoring drive in the second session, led by Jack Sherlock, dis- organized the opposition and the Pratt team rode to another victory. {The scrappy N. Y. State quintet came as another victim. The visitors led an uphill fight and might have caught the Black and Gold off guard but the marksmen from Pratt found themselves again and won out in the final minute. {The Crescent Athletic Club handed out a set-back that proved they were superior— and although “Big John” collected thirteen points, the team went down to defeat. {A weak Lowell Textile five furnished easy victory as the quintet from Pratt, working in smooth fashion, scored almost at will to win handily. {At Newark, Delaware, battling basket for basket and score for score against Delaware University, the Black and Gold finally brought the score within two points of victory and tie. However, time was short, but not too short to score, for Jack Sherlock dropped a shot that added an extra overtime period. The game was enlivened by close guarding, rough playing, and then defeat in the final minute of extra time. The last game of the season could give any interested basketball fan a forty-minute lesson on the technique and the finesse of the bounce and dribble game—but the opponents proved too strong, and defeat was scored for the final game. { The season is over, and Levin, Havemeyer, Sherlock, Mangani and Grieb have given in their suits. The fine playing, good sportsmanship and co-operation displayed by these men make Pratt proud to recognize them as the quintet who wear the Black and Gold of their Alma Mater. 222 .

The success of the 1936 season gave great promise of an even more successful season for 1937. {In the opening game, the team traveled to Kingston, Rhode Island, where they met defeat, losing to Rhode Island State 9 to 3. The ending of the fourth inning resulted in a tie at 3-all; what happened then is a mystery. § The next game was with our old rival, Stevens Institute. The boys were out to avenge their first upset and they did, by winning 13 to 9. § The third game was one of the most thrilling of the season when Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute of Troy, N. Y., came to our field to meet defeat by one run. The final score—Pratt 6, R.P.I. 5. In the eighth inning, Pratt was trailing 5-3 when Jaklitsch and Barbieri walked and Joe Falotico hit a single to bring them in, tying the score. “Iggie” Stankus then put the ball game “on ice” by knocking a home run in the ending of the ninth inning. {The fourth en- counter was a return game with Stevens on their diamond at Hoboken, N. J. Ideal weather prevailed, and the Black and Gold took advantage of this fact to win 9 to 6. {Arnold College at West Haven, Conn., was our next opponent. This was a sad trip for our boys as they brought home a tale of defeat. The final score—15 to 5. The day follow- ing, Pratt played the New York State Teachers’ team at Standing—Gregoritch, Falotico, Stankus, Shargas, McKillop. Seated—Schlessinger, Kinzler, Barbieri, Jaklitsch, Pierce. 224, Albany. Here they demonstrated that they could still play ball by winning 5 to 3. {The next game our team was back on the home diamond, playing against a team from Drew University of Madison, N. J. Our boys were unable to click and were defeated 5 to 1. {The final game of the season was with the Alumni on Alumni Day. This event was one of the high lights of the Fiftieth Anniversary celebration of the founding of our Alma Mater. The game was packed full of fun and excitement with the Alumni winning 11 to 9. Frankie Boberman, a former star pitcher for Pratt, was up to his old form and allowed the varsity only seven hits. The Alumni hit three homers while Pantas was the only varsity man to connect. Gillin’s home run in the seventh won for the Alumni. {The 1937 positions were filled by capable ball players. Co-captain John Barbieri, a hard-hitting outfielder and one of the best fly catchers ever to don a glove at Pratt field, has caused the opposing moundsmen no end of trouble during the past two years, having attained a batting average of .400. Co-captain Leo Pantas, a consistent although not a hard- hitting player, won the second base position. Playing for two years, Bill Gregoritch readily won his job at the initial sack and was one of the team’s leading hitters with an average of .259. Filling the short stop position Pratt had one of the best in “Iggy” Stankus. Third base was allotted to Ed Zeale. {Patrolling the the outer pastures were Co-captain Barbieri in center, Louis Jaklitsch in right and Fred Kinzler in left. Jaklitsch has developed into quite a hitter while his fielding left nothing to be desired. In Fred Kinzler, Pratt has another find. Don Pierce crashed into the line up because of his ball-handling ability. Joe Falotico, regular catcher, received plenty, and received it properly. Meyer Schlessinger earned himself the reputation as one of the best flingers during the 1937 season; assisting him were Pierce and Kinzler, thus making a well-rounded mound staff.

Led by Captain Ed- ward Chaiter, the Artsmen swept through an undefeated season. {Starting off the season the Artsmen tied the Architects one-one, on Ben Frompton’s goal in the last minute’s play. They shut out the Mechanicals one-nothing when Paul Eckley scored the game’s only goal. Get- ting in stride Frompton, Shelley and Shenton scored to shut out the Chemists, three-nothing. The Artsmen again shut out the Mechs two-nothing on scores by Chaiter and Sowers. Then they licked the Chems as the forward line really went to town, by a three—nothing score. In the final game of the season they completely swamped the Architects, four—nothing. {Wells and Walters presented a great defense as fullbacks, while Halfbacks Carlson, Goldenberg and Herrick made up a strong second line to hold off the opposition. Johnny Holler, who, as goalie, rolled up five consecutive shutouts, led the league and had only one goal scored against him all season. {Much credit must be given to “Art” Norgren, who gave much of his time to managing the team. TOUCH FOOTBALL ... The In- terclass Football Championship was won by the Mechanical Engineers. Although the fourth-year Engineers and the Artsmen gave stiff competition the Mechanicals went through the season without a defeat. The stars of the team were Joe “Slinger” Falotico, Al “Rabbit” Mangani, “Ace” Wilcox and Richard “Snake-Hips” Day, who made up the stellar backfield. Other notables were Pierre ‘‘Frenchy”” Bowman who alternated at center and tackle, “Big Bill” Morsell, 190 pounds of fighting flesh, who played right guard, Captain “Whitey” Green and ‘‘Flash” Stanbaugh who held down end positions. “Chippy” Wyatt, “Duke” Brown, Mel Hacydk, Oscar Katz, Joe Jaklitsch and Carl “Fluffy” Zender were able substitutes. Interclass Manager Gus Mangani and Class Manager Tony Jonassen predict that the Mechanicals should retain the championship next year. Top Row—Shenton, Wells, Holler, Eckley, Shelley, Sowers.

As this book goes to press the winning team has yet to toss its decisive goals, the schedule not having been completed. The editors have decided to make no more enemies than necessary and, therefore, reproduce above the managers of all the class teams, all that are not camera shy. Much credit goes to these shining counte- nances but more to the team that each so ably represents. {Individual recognition of all the able athletes comprising the class teams would be fitting but, for economy’s sake, if no other, we will have to content ourselves with those showing exceptional aptitude and dexterity. {{High honors go to Eli Freedson of Ch III, George Lomuscio Arch., John Holoubek E III, Rodney Sheffield M III, Aifred Schlep Arts, Frank Mastrota M IT, Wells Rockwell Ch II, Carleton Rawcliffe E IJ, James Snyder M I, Sherman Linn E I, William Schaefer C I, and Nicholas Grynkewich, Eng. IV. §At this stage of the schedule it might be well to mention that last year’s champions, the Artists, and the Chemical III are as yet unde- feated. May the season end with no more broken friendships and bones than good sportmanship allows for. CLASS HARDBALL AND SOFT- BALL ... Last season witnessed the Chemical team crowned king of the dia- mond. That top position was obtained only after several gruelling grid-iron battles. {Many students who desired to play baseball but who had neither the equipment nor the wherewithal to ob- tain such equipment; and many students who preferred to play softball in preference to hardball will be given the opportunity to do so this season. For the first time at Pratt we are playing both hardball and softball. §At the time this article is being written course teams in both sports have been chosen. The interclass manager in hardball is Lowe IME III. The inter- class manager in softball is Kossen IME Ill. To date several games have been played but it is still too early in the season to predict the probable outcome in each league. Unseasonable weather has delayed the number of games played to date. {|The number of students who turned out for these two sports indicated their great popularity. Baseball has always been one of the top-notch sports at this school both from the participants’ viewpoint and from the spectators’ viewpoint. This season will prove no exception as all reports to date point toward a banner season. BIG PINS ... Champions again! The third-year Mechanicals. {Besides winning the 1938 interclass championship, the 38 Mech team composed of Captain Hakanson, Pepper, Cowan, Kallman, Kretz, Pierse and Manager Krauseman also have the following brilliant accom- plishments: the first team in Pratt to win the bowling championship for three suc- cessive years; the highest single game (Pepper); the splendid record of having lost but one match in three years of regular competition; and the distinction of having the services of two of the best bowlers at Pratt, inasmuch as the first and second high individual tournament averages were rolled by Hakanson and Pepper, re- spectively. {The Mech ’38 will be re- membered for their fine bowling, courage, modesty and sportsmanship. pcos Row—Krausman, Kretz, Pepper, Kuebler. First Row—Kallman, Hakanson, owan, Second Row—Patterson, Crossen, Riggio, Fous. First Row—Valenti, Smith, Signoriello, Lovell. DUCK PINS ... As the duck pin season enters the fourth week of compe- tition, the third-year Mechanicals remain the only team in the unbeaten class, with Chem III, Architects and Artsmen strung out behind in that order. {The high spots in the tournament to date are: Pepper leading the individual average parade; the Mech III’s upsetting the overconfi- dent Chemists by eleven pins; Birdsey’s sparking the Artsmen to a one pin victory over the fourth-year Engineers with a splendid ‘‘170”; and the smooth bowling of Hansen (Chem III), one of the most consistent men in the league. Flash! Architects won! Standing—Stafford, Jaklitsch. Seated —Mastrota, Mangani. Standing —Crawbuck, Coughlin, Salls. Seated —Massa, Altschuk. BILLIARDS ... The billiard tourna- ment this year held a repeat performance from the year previous. Joseph Jaklitsch was again the winner in the singles tourna- ment, his second victory in this sport at Pratt. The second-year Mechanicals won the tournament with ease due to the splendid performance of Jaklitsch, Al Mangani, Carlos Stafford and Frank Mastrota. Maybe next year they can again repeat this fine performance. Let us hope the new crop of students will put up a team that will give them some keen competition and thus build up the billiard team for future years. HANDBALL ... This year starts our first year of interclass handball. For many years we have had many students who were enthusiastic about playing this fine game. This enthusiasm for such a fast and exhilarating sport was rewarded by the Athletic Council’s gift of two new handball courts constructed in the east rooms of the gym. The interclass tourna- ment at present writing is well under way with teams representing each class par- ticipating. Much speculation has been going on as to the ultimate outcome of this tournament. However, as this year repre- sents the first year of interclass compe- tition in this sport, the relative merits of the respective competitive teams is an unknown quantity. By the time you read this article the standing of each team will have been determined. May next year see an even greater turnout for this fine sport. PING-PONG ... Indoor tennis, the offspring of the lively court game, has caught on in record time as a recognized class sport. Interclass Manager Bjork- stedt’s call for teams to enter the tourna- ment was not unheeded. Each of the courses immediately sent out its banner- bearers to the field of action and the ping- pong room became a veritable No Man’s Land of flying missiles and ear-splitting noises. Mingled with the pistol-like re- ports of balls meeting paddles were strange grunts, as of persons exerting themselves, and frequent ejaculations and desultory remarks which occurred particularly each time a missile escaped the reach of a con- testant. {Particularly in keeping with the trend of the times is this ready-made sport, requiring little in the way of space, equip- ment, toggery and, most important, effort. And so may we say—may the laziest team win! , BOXING ... Boxing is not an inter- class or a varsity sport, but students participate in it who are interested in learning this manly art of self-defense; or by those students who are desirous of keeping physically fit. This sport helps co-ordinate a person’s mind and muscles and develops a sense of timing, all of which proves very valuable. It teaches the participants control of temper and a valuable asset called “‘sportsmanship.” |The main object of this club is to impart to the members an appreciation of the sport. Many good boxers are developed each year, and each year finds many new faces ready and eager to carry on the leather-hand sport. Standing —Bozzella, Moen. Seated —Pavelchak, Raynor. Standing —Kuchner, Hakanson, Lindner. Seated —Coughlin, McFarlane, McCann. SWIMMING... At present writing, the interclass swimming tournament is drawing to a close, with the Mechanical team competing with the Architects for top-splash position. {The defeat of the “lectrical team by a close margin gave Architects the right to challenge the Mechanicals for first place. The relay was the deciding factor in this victory by the Architects. § This year there were six teams competing in each of six events namely—30-yard free style, 30-yard breast stroke, 30-yard back, medley, 90-yard free style and 120-yard relay. Each man was allowed to compete in one event and the relay. {Much interest has been shown in this sport at Pratt and while no Johnny Weissmullers have appeared, the much splashing and churning should prove that the men are aiming at some of his records. Members of the winning team will receive medals in appreciation of their efforts and achievements. Second Row—Asadourian, Wyatt, C. Benson, Moen. First Row —Carlson, Man- gani, A. Benson. 232 Miss A. J. Brady Miss A. P. Gilbert ATHLETICS FOR WOMEN ... Times have changed— considering the place women have established for themselves in the field of athletics. What once would have been daring and brazen is now common- place. Early classes of physical culture for women consisted of toe pointing and arm stretching, but nothing that would interfere with their maidenly dignity. Today, at Pratt, the Department of Physical Education for Women has broadened from required exercise classes to healthful sports in the open air. In the fall each student has the privilege of choosing to par- ticipate in hockey, swimming or volleyball. At the close of the season class teams contest in a tournament to decide the school championship. Each spring baseball joins the list and many’s the girl who slides to base on her ear. Yes, we girls take our athletics seriously these days. {{Nearing the middle of November, when the icy blasts of winter drive us indoors, we take up the required work in Fundamental Danish Gymnastics along with rhythm and tap dancing. Often this may be supplemented once a week by basketball, fencing, modern or tap dancing or the gym club. At the close of the indoor season in April there is a demonstration of modern and tap dancing, gymnastics and fencing held in the gymnasium to which the entire school is invited. 233 Parks, Carmine, Phillips, L., Perry, Phil- lips, M., Carter, Millard, Kronk, Dreher.

This year the Art School has produced an outstanding group of young women hockey enthusiasts. The hockey team, composed of members of the Teacher Training I, Illustration I and Design I classes topped their H. S. A. oppo- nents, the Senior Costume Design class, by a score of 2 to 1. Hockey is the most strenuous sport indulged in by women students at Pratt, but this by no means dampens their spirits. The teams of this season have shown the enthusiasm necessary for good hockey teams. Better luck next time, H. S. A.! VOLLEYBALL ... The _ [Illustration I class succeeded in keeping the volleyball champion- ship in the Art School this year. Their strongest opponents were the Dressmaking Girls of the H. S. A. School, the score of the deciding game being 33 to 25. Volleyball continues to be one of the favorite sports at Pratt as each year more and more students elect it as a fall and spring sport. The elimination tournament presents a lively struggle to decide which team shall be permitted to uphold the honor of the school in the final interclass game. This year the Art School holds the pennant. Next year? FENCING ... Each year the Fencing Club at Pratt becomes more popular among the women students. The final matches will not be played until after Prattonia has gone to print so the results can not be recorded here. One of the attributes of fencing, and, incidentally, also why it has attained its present heights, is that it can be carried on as an excellent form of exercise in later years. The girls of the club have spent many Wednesday noon hours mastering this ancient form of self-defense, which adds so much to one’s poise and grace. 235 CIETIES William Weber President Ralph C. Barker Vice-President Alfred J. Gabriele Secretary Harold I. Ellison Treasurer THE ARTSMEN ... As _ in_ past years the Artsmen began with the per- ennial “Howdy Dance” held in conjunc- tion with both the Paletteers and the Architects. {Pratt society relished it and so we succeeded with a “Hollywood Party” that certainly had all the ear- marks of a typical Hollywood premiere. Radio and movie stars were well repre- sented by our top-class mimics. {As edu- cation and culture cover a wide area in Pratt, the Artsmen increased the scope by running a series of lectures and exhibitions by nationally recognized advertisers and illustrators. And for that we offer our sincerest thanks to William Frazer and Ira Herrick. {In sports the Artsmen held their own. Losing only here and there in such sports as soccer, basketball, swim- ming, baseball, and bowling we made out exceedingly well. Our thanks to the sports segment of the Artsmen. §{No doubt our achievements could not have been so successful had not we had the full co- operation of every loyal Artsman. The officers of 1938 extend to the officers of 1939 hearty wishes for a fine and successful coming season. Virginia White President Mary F. Amler Vice-President Elizabeth D. Roraback Secretary Ruth A. Spear Treasurer PALETTEERS ... In spite of the general impression of one woman’s opinion of another, we feel that Pratt girls are the exception which has proven the rule, and we have accordingly tried to bring them closer together. You know what road is paved with good intentions, and if we have not had enough events this year it is because of our work and—well, our work. {|The Paletteers and Woody Wise- man enjoyed the annual banquet tr e- mendously. In case you do not remember, Woody was from the American Airways and he gave us a talk on air travel. If you were not at the Hollywood Party you have probably heard all about it, so what more can we add? For this and the ever-popular Howdy Dances we can thank the Artsmen for their co-operation—or perhaps they should thank us! The Palet- teers also arranged interesting exhibitions and lectures; the most outstanding of which, we think, was the color concert. The color concert’s beauty and effectiveness are beyond our powers of portrayal. And do not forget the Dorothy Hood exhibition. Standing —Petersen, Frazer, Mr. Longyear, Chaiter, Gabriele.

The Archi- tects, as an organization, increased consid- erably in size this year due to the large first- year class and the addition of a fourth year. We had three banquets and a dance which were very successful in all respects. {At our first banquet we were honored by the presence of Ralph Walker, one of the leading men of the architectual profession today. He spoke of his visit to the Paris Exposition and gave us a résumé and personal interpretation of the architectual features of the fair. {Our second banquet was equally successful owing to the fact that we had as a guest speaker Sir Ray- mond Unwin, an outstanding British Housing authority whose works have been studied the world over. {Our dance, as stated before, was a successful affair and we feel quite puffed up about it because of the large attendance that we had, even though it was a closed affair. It did show that there is genuine interest in the exist- ence of our club and that it will never die out. Last but not least we owe a great deal to the helpful guidance that has been given us by our adviser, Mr. Pope. Christina Arguedas President Evelyn Miller Vice-President Christine Motes Secretary Marion Miner Treasurer ARTISANS CLUB ... The Artisans Club is made up of the Costume Design and the Dressmaking classes. The object of the organization is to familiarize the members with the various fields open to graduates of clothing by having speakers at the meetings who are representative of those fields. This year the speakers in- cluded: Margaret Case, Fashion Editor of Vogue, Maurice Rentner, chairman of the Fashion Originators’ Guild, executives from R. H. Macy and James McCutcheon, Mrs. Koues of Good Housekeeping and Katherine Vincent of the Herald Tribune. {The social event of the season was a dance held in the late spring, given for the purpose of raising money to carry on the activities of the organization next year. We extend best wishes to next year’s club. Grayce Fisher President Dorothy Hakendorn Vice-President Dorothy McGovern Secretary—Treasurer DIETETICS CLUB ... At the first meeting of the Dietetics Club, Wilma Hillinger of the D 2’s gave an interesting short talk on her experiences in training last summer at the Kraft Phoenix Cor- poration in Chicago. She had the good fortune to work under Miss Margaret Dahnke, and to assist her in some demon- strations. {Miss Doris Yumsteg, who graduated from the Dietetics Class a few years ago, related various things that one should know in running a_ school cafeteria. Miss Yumsteg is in charge of the Theodore Roosevelt High School Cafeteria which serves meals to about 3500 students each day. {The Wisconsin Research Corporation has movies and slides which we hope will be presented to us at a future date. We also plan to have someone who is prominent in news- paper or magazine work give us some of her ideas. E. Cecelia Mesurac President Elizabeth Cutsinger Vice-President Pamela Anderson Secretary Jane Evans Treasurer HOME ECONOMICS CLUB... This year the Home Economics Club, under the powerful leadership of Miss Mesurac, has made a vigorous and very successful effort to interest each girl in the school in the activities of our club and in the Home Economics clubs of America and New York State. {The club has felt keenly the loss of Miss Condit, who was such an interested backer of our activities for so many years. We have found a new friend and adviser, however, in Miss Seymour, and we feel that she has much of value to offer us. {The tea for the Home Economics groups of the high schools of Greater New York was our first activity and it was extremely successful with a big attendance at the meeting first, and at the tea later. The club has also conducted several meetings and conferences and presented interesting programs, including an address by Miss Davidson, head of the Herald Tribune Institute. Plans are now going forward for a big carnival to be held in March, which will draw students of the Institute together. Standing —McGovern, Miss Feeney, Hakendorn. Seated —Fisher, Bogart.

The Pratt Branch of the A.S.M.E. is composed of three groups: the regular student section, the aeronautical group and the automotive group. This year the aeronautical and automotive groups held their meetings in conjunction with one another. The meetings consisted of business as well as talks by outside and student speakers. Students represented the Pratt Branch of the A.S.M.E. at the Annual Convention and Student Luncheon held in New York. Each year the Student Branch of the A.S.M.E. sends a student to present a technical paper at the regional convention. §Among other activities of the A.S.M.E. are its inspection trips. Some of the plants visited this year were the Consolidated Edison Company, New York Hospital and the News Building. These trips aid the student in broadening his knowledge of engineering practice. {{Each year the membership increases over the previous year, which shows that the A.S.M.E. is progressing. William R. Lacy, E.E. Chairman Harry B. Cotant Vice-Chairman Harold Gruenberg Secretary Allan L. Short, E.E. Treasurer A.I.E.E. ... The past yearhas been the most active and profitable in the history of the student branch of the Amer- ican Institute of Electrical Engineers at Pratt Institute. §We have had, on the average, one guest speaker, one student paper and one inspection trip per month. These meetings have been very well at- tended and have also been very interesting. Inspection trips have been taken to the Hell Gate Power Plant of the Consolidated Edison Company, the Western Electric Company, the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad shops, the I.R.T. shops and a great many other plants and shops in the metropolitan area. {Our greatest achievement was having Mr. William H. Harrison, President of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, as a guest speaker. Mr. Harrison is a graduate of the night school in Industrial Electrical Engineering. This meeting was attended by the entire Electrical depart- ment. §{We hope that our successors may have as phenomenal a success as we have had in the past year. Edwin F. Fleischman President Ralph A. Lund Vice-President Gerard Lotterhos Secretary Harold W. Hansen Treasurer THE WOHLER SOCIETY ... This society was founded by Dr. Allen Rogers for the advancement of learning in the field of chemistry. {The activities of the society are both social and educational. Monthly meetings are held and students meet on a mutual basis to discuss technical topics. These meetings provide lectures or motion pictures pertaining to the com- mercial or scientific aspects of industry, which are followed by suitable entertain- ment and refreshments. The ‘‘Chem Formal” is held for the purpose of a general get-together for the chemistry students and their instructors. It is held at the school and it provides excellent entertainment and favors for all those who attend. {The highlight of the so- ciety’s activities is the banquet at the close of the school year. At this time the senior students have the opportunity to characterize varios instructors whom they have encountered throughout their school life. As it is the closing event of the society for the year the students show no mercy in their dramatizations, making unlimited the possibilities of a good time. Michael H. Baker President Eric B. T. Kindquist Vice-President John G. Remsen Secretary—Treasurer Dr. G. F. Kinney f toa Dr. T. G. Dixon Faculty Advisers PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB... Be- ginning in 1936 as a group of S T stu- dents interested in taking pictures and in the technical side of photography, the club has grown to a membership of 65, includ- ing students in all schools of the Institute. {This year, rising to new heights in both the type of work and services rendered, the club has had a number of excellent lectures, most of these given by the mem- bers. Especially remembered must be the lectures given by Dr. Kinney of the Chemistry Department on “Fine Grain Developers,” and by John Remsen on “Night Photography.” The club has succeeded in gaining the sponsorship of the Eastman Kodak Company in conducting a series of lectures. {Special thanks should be given to Dr. Kinney for his fine sponsor- ship, to Dr. Rogers and Dr. Dixon for their help and advice, to Mr. Miller and Mr. Millard for the use of apparatus in their possession and to Mr. W. F. Bent of the Eastman Kodak Co. for the fine lecture material issued to us. Fleischman, Lotterhos, Hansen, Lund. Dr. Kinney, Kindquist, Dr. Dixon. Seated —Baker, Remsen.

Although the Pratt Playshop is still in its early stages of development, the sincerity and ability of this drama-conscious group have caused it to be recognized as a prominent and valuable student activity. {| Membership in the Playshop is open to all students interested in the varied and _ intriguing phases of the theater. { The Playshop or- ganized three years ago and has since that time successfully produced three plays. As has been the precedent of the Playshop, one play is presented annually. The play is selected by vote of the group and pro- duction is started under supervision of the director. It is the task of the director to select the cast for the production from the dramatic talent available at Pratt. All creative designing is done by the stu- dents as well as the supervision of the technicalities involved in a well-set and well-lighted stage. As the current director of the dramatic group, we have been exceedingly fortunate in obtaining the services of Samuel Gilman, the club’s founder and first president. Sara Di Gate Director Evelyn Bristol Secretary Ann Hovey Treasurer Terry Joanethis Business Manager PRATT GLEE CLUB... A mod- est call for ‘‘those who can sing” brought forth with a bang forty-four students of unusual ability from every department in the school. {Under the inspiration and able direction of Sara Di Gate, Teacher Training II, the club meets once a week on every Tuesday at the Women’s Club. {Two of its aims have been realized, namely, to unite with a common interest students from all the different schools at Pratt; and to gather together in one har- monious whole the stray snatches of music or vocal expressions floating through Pratt halls. The third, that of entertaining at Pratt functions is yet to be fulfilled. 4 Al- though in her second year at Pratt In- stitute, Sara Di Gate is by no means a novice in the art of directing a vocal group, having been for several years choir master and church organist at the Saint Philomena Church, East Hampton, Long Island. MEN’S CLUB ... The Men’s Club continued its important part as a recre- ational center for reading, billiards, bowl- ing, chess and checkers. Its reading rooms furnished our knowledge of current events and a share of the best literary magazines of each month. The Main Hall was kept active by parties given by the various social clubs of the Institute and by meet- ings of the technical societies of the S T school. {As in previous years the interclass bowling tournament was the outstanding sport and kept the Men’s Club in a lively state for many weeks. The crash of bowling balls on pins can still be heard resounding through the club. {How- ever, the Men’s Club’s greatest bid to fame is the informal gatherings that take place within its walls during recess. These gatherings bring together the men of all schools on a mutual and friendly basis, fostering a true union of hearts united within our Alma Mater. WOMEN’S CLUB ... To the women of Pratt Institute the Women’s Club will be remembered for its indispens- ability and convenience. The warm friend- liness and congeniality of frequent get- togethers and social teas have served to bind the women of the Institute into one coherent, friendly and invincible group. {Long will live the entrancing hustle of noon hours, with clanging dishes and pans mingled with the scraping of chairs and underlying hum of conversation. §For rainy days and pleasant afternoons the warmth of the reception room with its softness of the radio and the intensity of the silence of those reading the numerous magazines. { Though we leave Pratt, the hospitality and friendliness of Miss Owens will live on with us in tribute to that for which we are indebted to her.

The splen- did aid and enthusiastic co-operation of the student body have made the year 1937-38 a memorable one in the history of the Student Council. {All four schools have profited by the new adaptations and decisions of the Council which has again established itself the direct “voice” of the students. The Council not only supported the varied social activities of the individual schools, but in addition sponsored some highly suc- cessful Tuesday afternoon dances of its own. Two innovations were introduced at these dances: the first being a “floating”? dance committee composed of Council members who mixed with the dancers and acted as hosts. Secondly, the Council members were given the opportunity of running at least one after- noon dance, individually or in pairs, to acquaint themselves with the procedure involved in arranging an afternoon hop. {The student response to the annual Red Cross Drive was indeed gratifying and we wish to extend our collective thanks to the student body as a whole. {{Early in November the Council had the privilege of selecting the Prattonia board. Approved applicant’s names were submitted by the class presidents and voted on by Council members. We feel justifiably proud of our selection, and we are confident that this year’s book will be greater than any of its predecessors. {As the school year draws to a close the clamor for a Senior Prom is again heard. As Prattonia goes to press no definite decision has been reached as to where the Prom will be held. However, it is in the hands of a capable committee and we feel sure that the Seniors will have as great a Prom as any in the past and one that will set a precedent for any in the future. {To our presi- dent, Edwin Tracy, we wish to extend our heartiest congratulations for tackling an extremely difficult job with the sincerity and common sense of a born leader. By his guidance we have been able to stimu- late a true school spirit and friendly co-operation between the students and the faculty. {To the in- coming members and officers of the Student Council we extend our wishes for a successful and prosperous year and leave you cheering: §““Hail Pratt Insti- tute! !” 245 To cries of “truck to the right”, “shag on down’’, and “shine”, our exuberantly slaphappy fellow Prattites joined in the social whirl with a wim and wigor that made previously harassed dance com- mittees perk up and show their enthusiasm and ingenuity with a variety of shindigs that would do justice to an Elsa Maxwell. . . . With a desire to “give my all” for deah old Prattonia, your social editor attended most of these foos personally and will try to give you a candidly candid “cheek to cheek” picture of the frothy side of the Institute, titled ‘Glamor on Ryerson Street’’, or ‘‘ Last One to the Punchbowl Is a Sissy.’ . . . {Way back in September the Women’s Club gave two teas— September 19 and 26—remember? Given for the benefit of acquainting the new studes with their future fellow inmates, the teas were swamped by upper classmen who desired a preview of the ‘new faces.” Hmm. . . just another old Prattitude. . . . In October the Paletteers, the Artsmen and the Architects gave their frosh a “ Howdy Dance.” The dance being just what its name implies, you soon heard names, home towns and “do you knows” avidly exchanged and discussed. T'was quite ap- parent that the S T was well represented; as evidenced by their fast—er—footwork and brilliant socks. While a smattering of femmes, usually found wallowing in yards and yards of muslin, con- tributed their share of the “Big Apple” to add to the gaiety of the occasion. The artists, bless ’em, were more than gracious, and the first afternoon dance went over with characteristic zip. . . . Our exclusive (?) friends from across the street . . . the Chemists. . . bravely ventured forth with a “Chem Hop”, held in Pratt’s spacious ballroom . . . oof! . . . while a very enthusiastic crowd of jitterbugs, aided and abetted by a smo-oo-th orchestra, made this the most successful Chem Dance to date. The committee had the distinction of announcing a clear, hope-it’s-tax-free profit of $3.964!!.... While 247 tremely clever program. On the deck of the good ship Showboat with Cap’n Henry as M.C. a group of Floradora damsels, bewitchingly floradoraish, oo-la-lahed before the entranced audience, who cheerfully hissed the villain and wept over the tragic fate of our heroine. Doughnuts, candied apples and stuff were served by the ‘‘ Bartenders Quartet”’, four severely mustached and much-becheckered individuals who sobbingly rendered some touchingly tender ballads. . . . By this advance date Ed Tracy and his Dipsydoodlers had taken possession of the hall on alternate Tuesday afternoons. This year the dances were attended more regularly than ever before, while the ““Prattonians” gave out with the very newest and swingiest—er—ah—music. Yon Prattites pranced around in excitable, perspiring couples or seemingly doing solos as they hopped to and away from their bewildered partners. With the advent of the new wacky steps and unembarrassed exhibitionists the current crop of school dances are the liveliest and most amusing. Hints of the return of the waltz are unheeded by our swing fiends as they “‘slice the apple” and “ peck”’ while Mac goes to town on the drums and ye editore starts to “‘shine.’’ What, again? . . . Just when everyone decided to save their pennies for those Xmas ties the Artsmen and the Paletteers burs t forth with their dazzling contribution to an already hectic conglomeration of social activities. They ups with a costume party to end all costume parties! December 11 was the date. With the request that the eager young things dress as their favorite movie stars, the illusion of a gala “first night”’ was produced in the use of a brilliant spot- light as they entered . . . plus the effervescent presence of an announcer with a mike and everything!! Huge posters and stills of currently popular films were used for atmosphere, while Garbos trucked with horror men—oops! sorry, that was an architect. Quite harmless! A few of the better mimics impersonated their assumed characters, and someone impersonated Bill Weber . . . uh-oh. . . . Then came snow .. . cold noses . . . babushkas . . . and wet tootsies. Familiar? The round of Christmas parties in the various schools announced the very welcome Xmas vacation . . . and the lull that fol- lowed indicated a need for cramming and the end of the first semester . . . and you know what that means. Up dashed the Junior Costume Designers with a dance to rid you of the hangover of finals and deadlines. Date? January 28. Publicized as the Junior Jig, it seemed irresistible and was at- tended by the largest crowd ever seen at an evening dance. The success of the juniors’ first dance was due, no doubt, to the manly assistance of a group of Chemists, who, after an inadequate display of their decorative talents, were gently but firmly shooed back to their sandplot across the street. Ahme....On February 15 the gals in HS A dished up (pun, pun) a little something they called a “Fire Sale and Social.” Auctioneers in top hats, sharpie collars, bright ties and baggy suits made merry with their ridiculous wares and the bidders’ pennies. Going . . . going . . . gone! seemed to refer to the rapidly disappearing refreshments. And the stunt was acclaimed lots of fun. . . . Time snucked on, as it has a way of doing, and then, on March 3, the Dietitians again blossomed forth. This time they literally tore the town apart with a “Scavenger Hunt.” Ryerson Street still echoes to the cries of startled pedestrians, astounded by the weird get-ups worn by the girls from “‘ Prattses College.” More than one weary landlady is mystified over the strange disappearance of her priceless peerless potato peeler; while a forlorn engineer would be grateful for the return of a pair of slightly used green suspenders with a yellow stripe. Puleese! .. . What with spring in the air and our new straw bonnet and stuff, we expected great things from the second-year Mechs’ dance, March 12 in Ye Recreatione Halle. With love in their eyes, the current sweet young thing decorating their arm and the price of entré clutched in a slightly grubby fist, our heroes filled the hall to capacity, and a wery grand time was had by all . . . if one is to believe all reports . . . and one does! . . . So-o0000 we bring ourselves up to date and find that only one or two more events will be attended in the near future by Pratt’s café society before we close an imposing series of social events for the year ’37—’38. On March 30 and 31 the Pratt Playshop thespians will again trod the boards, this time with their version of Warrior’s Husband. ’Tis rumored it will upset a few Pratt precedents and will, we wager, puncture not a few male egos. . . . The Wohler Society will hold its annual formal dance in April. It is expected to be enthusiastically supported by the Chemists. Who else, eh? . . . Well, Prattonia must “to the presses,’’ which means that the greatest event in the school life of our seniors—the Senior Prom—must be neglected in this review, except for the news that the prospect of a Prom is indeed encouraging, and the poor dears are keeping their fingers crossed in the hope that this time they'll get a Promenade that they can be very proud of. . . . ‘The time has come,” the walrus said, or shall we attribute that to the bully with a blue pencil called hereabouts the editor-in-chief? Anyhoo, this is the end of our reminiscing. And we should like to thank the various committees for making these grand times possible for you and for us. It’s been fun knowing you, and to all of you Prattelites we pledge a toast of loyalty and fellowship and the best of luck in the future... and we DO mean YOU.... 249 REMEMBER?

THE BOOK STORE ... One of the Institute’s many services. Supplying, conveniently and cheaply, all the materials necessary for any of the courses in any school, this organization is a boon to the student body. Mr. Butler and his pleasant, ever-patient assistants would do credit to the famous Selfridge of London. THE REST HOUSE ... A knife slips, a finger is corespondent in the case of Gear vs Cog; a pin finds the wrong cushion; a power saw refuses to differentiate between wood and flesh; a Prattite tries to take the Ryerson St. steps all at once; a Chemist stops that flask from hitting the ceiling. All these cases are mere ‘““snaps” to Miss Hale and Mrs. Hatch, whose experiences cover a wide range. Their whole interest is the welfare of Pratt students, and a visit to the Rest House is comparable to the well-known box of crackerjack —the more you eat the more you want.
