Peat Institute, Nineteen Forty-One ICATION TT INSTITUTE is made up of four great schools, which are bound to- gether not only by student unity, and the Pratt family, but also by a chain made of four strong links — our four directors. These people are on the job constantly to make Pratt the great school that it is today. Not only do they see that high standards are main- tained, but they work for closer co- operation between the schools, and between the student body and their instructors. Therefore to Mr. Boudreau, Mr. Cook, Miss Rock, and Mr. Shirley, we most respectfully dedicate this book. AD: V- IS OR eae ee To carry out a new experiment one needs continual help and unceasing encouragement throughout the entire duration of the process. From Mr. Petersen, Miss Duntz, Mr. McKenzie, Mr. Millard, and Mr. Shirley, we, the staff, have received the back- ing that was needed to complete this volume. For technical guidance we must thank the Kelly Publishing Co., Horan Engraving Co., and Arthur Studios. PR A TF Oe The staff for this year’s Prattonia: EDITOR-IN-CHIEF — William Keppler . . .

Herein is preserved a feather from the wing of Time; plucked by us in this year 1941 to help you in recalling the essence of its passage. When in later years you gaze upon our captive, we hope that it will paint vivid images of youth, and friendship, and happiness, so that for you, at least, Time will have stood still. ... To you, the graduates, we extend our congratulations and our sincere wishes for the fullest possible future. po eel AY 2 aN oe UR democracy rests upon its sanction of man’s birthright — his freedom to religion, press, speech and the right to as- semble. Not only must the Federal government believe and sustain this principle, but so must every institution in the country if the democracy is to survive; for how can it en- dure unless the people themselves are imbued with its spirit? Pratt In- stitute maintains this belief in the Student Council where students dis- cuss problems arising in school and offer solutions for consideration by the authorities. Thus those who best know the problems of the governed bring them to light, and those who can best effect the solu- tions carry them out. Sees a ee mL ack Bs Se HE Student Council reopening in September ‘40 scanned the past and lived enough in the present to be able to pro- pose suggestions reaching into the future. The Pep Rally Com- mittee built up the “esprit de corps” of the student body and the Pratt Band effectively put it to music. With the union of the Pratt Institute Dramatic Musical Organization school spirit should know no bounds. Field Day succeeded in helping the freshmen to become acquainted with the upperclassmen, and to be introduced to social life at Pratt early enough to insure a pleasurable year. George Gilmore is the Council's president. H, never again, and never; only June That sings of something over deathly soon. Already the mind's forgetfulness has blended Music with music; and the months are ended. 3 a LTY AND ADMINISTRATION T H E Deh CT OR 5 D INITIUM, this section is devoted to the pleasur- able task of introducing our directors as they really are. For to enter that palace of Learning at the great gate” requires a noble mind, a steady hand and most of all an understanding heart. Far from being the formidable personages one would ex- pect, the four ruling intelligentsia have shown themselves to be ready, willing and able to join and abet the informality prac- ticed by the students attending. Arranged in advantageous positions upon this page are to found Wayne Shirley, director of the School Library Science; Joan M. Rock, director of the School of Household Science and Arts; James C. Boudreau, director of the School of Fine and Applied Arts; Arthur L. Cook, director of School of Science and Technology.

SEB gE Of ZS = SOS EA Li w SS EVERAL years ago the administrative staff of your Art school agreed upon a statement of our philosophy. We feel that the continued ad- herence to the two basic objectives stated in this philosophy have made it possible for us to render an increasing service from year to year to both our undergraduates and alumni. The two objectives follow. The first calls for a program that synchronizes with the best contemporary professional practices. This is possible of realization only when the faculty and student body work together in terms of the business and art activities pre- valent in the commercial and industrial worlds. To support this program, leaders in professional art fields have been secured as instructors. From them the students develop an attitude of seriousness and application resulting in a whole- some atmosphere. Completing three years of such a pro- gram of study, the graduate finds he is in the happy situation of having no gap to bridge between his training and the workaday world. The second objective, even more difficult to realize than the first, yet predicted upon it, main- tains that the educational intent of the Art School is fully realized only when all its outgoing graduates are employed in the professional field for which they are trained. In ad- dition, the School activity participates in the advance of its alumni to their maximum capacity service. James C. BoupREAU ABOTT, CECILE M.

ON TOUR Editor’s Note: Just about the time this was supposed to be written, measles descended upon the student body of Pratt. Therefore we had another literary (?)) man give out with some work. OW that I am a senior, I decided to ful- fill a two year ambition — to take a tour of the Art school. Many interesting stories had reached my ears about this place, so it was about time I investigated. Joe, the elevator man, gave me the once over, (I hear he knows the names of all his passen- gers, or he knows where they are going. ) and a big smile drifted across his face: I think my slide-rule was peeking out from my inner pocket. With a great effort, the words “fourth floor, please” fell out of my mouth. Zing, we had arrived. I knew exactly where I wanted to go — Room 441, or any other room in that vicinity. The boys in the Physics lab had an ingenious method of arriving at this room. . . they climbed up the fire-escape. After wandering thru a maze of passages, my destination was reached. Should I, or shouldn't I? Well no, I'll save it till last, as it will be a fitting climax to my tour. I did wander thru some other rooms up there, and there the Artsmen were doing some sketch work. It is inter- esting to see the different ways a vase looks from the different angles. One poor fellow couldn't seem to arrive at the right angle, for his vase was smeared all over the place. More passages, and back to the Intimate Gallery. Here was an interesting exhibit of figures made out of tin, and space problems made out of plaster. They were very goood, at least that is what the signs said. Those space problems were about the only things I understood — the others, well, I still can't make up my mind. More passageways . . . lost . . . Oops, sorry girls; dressmaking class . . . at last Interior Decoration. Girls were still play- ing with doll houses, but they were the neat- est interiors in a doll house that I have ever seen. Downstairs for a quick look at the In- dustrial Design. This is where they really go to town with those modern ideas — you know — combination radio, bookcase, bar, grill, dressing table, and on and on.... The boys and girls were working on models of automobiles. Gee, one look at the models, and it made me feel that my ‘30 Ford was outdated already. May as well take in the photo lab while I am down here, so into the hall of darkness. Developer and fixer much in evidence all over the place ...I don't see why they don't help to reduce the tuition by taking pass- port photos on the side... . they have all the equipment, and lots more. Boy, 3:30, just in time to get up to that fourth floor again. Couldn't help stopping, and looking at the Dartmouth Winter Carnival posters. I can see why the other schools don't stand a chance with Pratt in the race. Wow — 3:45 ... dashed down the passages, upset some artsmen strolling around the halls Room 441 ... conquest would be mine... opened the door . . . shux, a class in COSTUME DESIGN. REETINGS to our engineer-graduates of 1941. To you who are about to take your places in industry, exceptional opportunities for advance- ment in your chosen field are just ahead. The needs of the National Defense Program have in- dicated clearly that the demand for engineers will greatly exceed the supply. Because of this shortage of trained men, you, as graduates, will secure positions where opportunities for rapid advancement are greater then has been the case in many years. This condition pre- sents a challenge to all young engineers which they should accept with confidence in their ability to make good. It does not mean “bluf fing” the way; on the contrary, it means speeding up your preparation for assuming greater respon- sibilities, so that when advancement is in sight you will have no doubt of your ability to take over more important work. With your formal engineering education completed, you are prepared to face your business career with con- fidence. At Pratt you are given a foundation on which to build. However, it remains your responsibility as individ- uals to determine the kind of superstructure to erect on our foundation. We of the faculty have watched your progress during your student years, and we shall continue to watch with pride your careers a s engineers. As alumni we trust you will take an active place with our engineering graduates, who form our loyal S T alumni association to which we bid you welcome. Artuur L.

Subways, elevators, feet, and all types of cars from 1900 models up. Once the masses pass through the gates, they are in till 12, when the setting off of a little bell turns the overall bearing crew loose for an hour. It is then that the campus becomes jammed. Over long Italian sandwiches, or some combination of a Dagwood, homework, cars, and other technical subjects, such as women, are discussed. The Engineer's life is a hermit’s life. The boys really make themselves at home. Al- though there is a two week limit on all beards, some of the boys look as if they had left their wool on a little longer. They are safe over there for there is an absence of women. Miss Suarez is used to the boys now, and the boys only duck when they see a secretary coming down the hall. Unlike all hermits the boys like to talk about stuff and things. The men’s lounges, which are located all over the school, are usually filled to capacity with smoking men fresh from some lab. It was here, in one of these lounges, that Mr. Wittig was mistaken for a student, and had another student pour out his tale of woe about his likes and dislikes about the school. The engineers give up their hermit ideals when they go out. You’d never recognize some of the fellows when they dude up. The fellows that clean out the cupola start at least two weeks in advance to get cleaned up for the forthcoming social. The old elevator outside of the school dis- rupts the usual routine of the classrooms lo- cated in the front of the Institute. Some bright lad, with the aid of his slide rule and table of logs, figured that we lose an equivalent of three lecture periods per year. The only classes not disrupted by this clamoring are the Mechanical Laboratory, and the Elec- tricity lab. In the Mech lab the boys running the Hill Diesel or the other Interhal combus- tion engines can’t hear a thing, while the Valve Turners in the ammonia room aren't affected by any sound. It is quite a job to revive them, sometimes. The Spark-plugs are not affected by the grinding wheels of the train for they usually have some motor, vin- tage 1930, turning over with a mess of squeaks. Of course the noise doesn’t bother the boys in the chem lab, for after the explo- sion they don't hear anymore anyway. When the boys are not doing homework, or attending some social function they are attending some sort of a party. Every Christ- mas the school rocks to sounds of gaiety. Last Christmas, one class removed one of the Christmas trees from the Art School and set it up in a prominent place. Cider and franks were passed around. Mr. Billey re- ceived sort of a farewell party from the Mech class, and it was quite a send off. With the ending of the week the boys lock up their locker, usually books inside, and head off to Vic’s soda fountain to talk the week over. Comes the weekend with reports to write up... but put off until Sunday.... Sunday too nice a day... oh well copy the stuff in first period class on Monday — Gosh it’s due the first period! ! ! LOOKING ABOUT HROUGH the gate, opened by Brother Paul every morning around — A.M., one enters upon the Engineering School's campus. To our right is the Chemistry Build- ing; in front of us is the Engineering Building, and diagonally in front of us is the Machin- ery Building. Each building contains mem- bers of the graduating class, so let’s look in on them. In the Chemistry building we find those mad chemists, both third and fourth years. The fourth year men, better known around this place as the Feather Merchants, are having quite a time finishing up their pro- jects for the term. Previous to this they set themselves down and solved a very, very, very simple problem in Chemical engineer- ing. This was the annual A.I.Ch.E. problem which according to Dr. Dixon was just a simple problem in heat transfer. The third year men are hanging around waiting for something to happen, and something usually does. More instructors in the Chemical De- partment have paid up on their life insur- ance policies since these boys got into the Chem Engineering and Physical Chemistry labs. If they are not causing explosions these boys are either throwing parties in design rooms or chem labs, or they are vainly try- ing to clinch the school title in basketball. The boys have been followed by a “jinx’’ for the past three years, and they have but one more year to break the spell and win the championship. Incidentally the faculty won, from these boys, a basketball game that will not be forgotten. In the Engineering Building, in the upper part, we have the spark plugs of the Institute — the Electrical Engineers. The boys can usually be found in the design room, work- ing out problems in Electrical Design, in be- tween smokes, or in the “Juice” lab where they make all sorts of motors go round and round. Joe Coughlin, the Maxie Baer of the Institute, is usually seen around front with his side kick, Cohn. Joe puts the future Golden Glovers through their paces down at the gym, and scares the girls to death when he rides up in that convertable job of his. The third year men are always around when something is happening. We don't say we know who shoveled snow around Gil- more’s car that one wintry day, but it sure was interesting to watch the boys from the Elect. III class do it. The Valve Turners, Grease Monkeys, and the other nicknames which float around the Institute describe the clan of the Mechanical Engineers. These boys have the majority in everything; the most students in a course; the most points in the athletic tournament. The Mechs usually inhabit the basement of the Engineering Building, and can be seen occasionally in the Forge Shop, getting some more pointers from Mr. Jones; in the Ma- chine Shop “Getting it” with an elbow from Mr. Burly, and listening with amazement to Mr. Nesbitt. The fourth year men are proud of their basketball team which last year won the school championship, and also defeated the faculty. This year the first year Mechs took the title. A good majority of the G. A. is composed of Mech scholars... SOCIAL STUFF HE third year Chemical Engineers started off the Pratt Social Whirl with their annual Fall dance; the Campus Hop. The boys started the affair with a bang, for their methods of advertising were of the best available. Posters, portraying Ooomph, were seen around the school several weeks in advance. A poor fellow didn’t have a chance against the super (?) salesmen. If they stopped to look at a picture, a ticket found its way into a pocket. The boys cer- tainly lived up to their campaign promises, for the dance was a huge success. Bedecked as a college, well why try to explain it, the engineers have ideas that run all over the place, the old Rec Hall didn't look the same. The climax of the evening was the letting loose of 1,000 (how many?), 500 (how many?) well about 150 balloons. Brother Paul, of locker room fame, was present with a bevy of beautiful girls, and seemed to have a swell time. The school is anxiously awaiting the next ‘Campus Hop.” In January, Hotel Edison rocked to the dancing feet of the engineers and their part- ners. This was the famous S T dance sponsored by the S T student Board. Last year's dance turned out to be such a suc- cess that the Board decided to try it again, and they again met with success. The punch this year was much better than the H.O served last year at the other dance. People got a big kick out of eating pieces of orange peel, and out of the Conga; that is if they got in the way. The boys were particularly fortunate for they had a swell orchestra up- stairs, and when they decided to cool off at the soda fountain downstairs, they danced to the music of Mitchell Aires. The only dis- appointing feature of the evening was the announcement that Stevens had beaten our team in basketball. At the Chemical Engineer’s Formal dance in the spring of the year, the engineers are changed men. One would never recog- nize the dancers as the inhabitants of greasy overalls, acid burnt smocks, and sharp clothes. The change is all for the better though. This year the band selected is Co- lumbia’s Blue Lions. This is one dance where the stag line will be absent. The students are not the only ones which will support ‘soup and fishes”, for the instructors really try to show the younger men off, and in many in- stances they succeed. One characteristic of the dance that everyone enjoys is the presen- tation of favors to everyone that comes. When one is speaking about social ac- tivity, one must not forget the Tuesday atfter- noon dances held in the Rec Hall. Seventy- five percent of the stag line is composed of engineers, who are hard to get started, but once started they really go to town. Del Conte has held down the job of supplying the music for the past few years, and has im- proved with age, until now he has a real snazzy orchestra. N Commencement Day, it takes only about fifteen minutes to change your status — from H. S. A. students to Pratt Institute alumnae. In this short time, the privileges and responsi- bilities of living, working, and thinking in a lar- ger world are handed over to you. Not that you suddenly cease to be Dietitians, Costume Designers, Institution Man- agers, Homemakers and Dressmakers — your undergrad- uate associations, your special training, your ultimate em- ployment, will always be the core around which you in- crease your efficiency, deepen your student loyalty to a particular department. But as alumnae, you should have broader interests and even greater fidelity to the Institute and all it represents. Stay close to us. In all probability it will take a year or more of working outside the Institute before you fully realize how much richer you are for your years here. Pass on that wealth of experience to others. Especially let it be shared with students who are still in school — who will be alumnae some day. The bonds of common interests, and mutual problems, between you and older alumnae are strong. Make them stronger by work- ing together on those problems. The traditions of the In- stitute are old, fine and honorable, and their pervetuation sorely needed in this upset world. The personal pleasure and satisfaction of perpetuation is yours, to be enjoyed with every man and woman who is proud to say, “I graduated from Pratt.” Joan M. Rocx ABRAMSON, RUTH J.

Hail to Thee, Our Alma Mater!! H.S.A. SOCIALS PEN-ARMED and clear-eyed, upperclass- men hurried into school that first bril- liant Octo ber day to greet both their own classmates and the new girls to be found within the ranks. Two new groups of Home Economics classes, who were to italicize 1941 in H. S. A. annals, began the rounds of our “first degree course”. The already oriented newcomers and the late-returning second and third year groups met and mingled at the delightful Faculty Tea of October 9. Summer experiences were swapped ... fragrant tea sipped . .. delicious sandwiches partaken of and another year of hard work and real fun was forthcoming. A few weeks later surprised merchants at the Washington and Bronx Markets saw a swarm of pretty girls descending upon them at the witching hour to ask the whys and wherefores of food distribution. The occa- sion? An all night marketing trip which ended in a breakfast with the truckdrivers and some very inert recitations the following day. Postponing the settlement of the sleep situation, the gals put their heads together and proceeded with plans for Festival floats. Whose was the stroke of ingenuity which sent the Home Ecs after a sheepskin “on the hoof?” They won't talk... but they had a fine time. The Pratt Band led by our own Alice Reisinger did very well for itself after but little practice. December came, with snow and mistletoe and holly to usher in the first Home Ec Christmas Party. In its holiday best, the Women's Club provided the perfect back- ground for the festivities. Basketball games were going strong, and the last Tuesday dance before vacation saw the stag line make a concerted rush for the H. S. A. representatives. Then the new year... term reports . . . sandwiches and apples smug- gled into the library to forestall the pangs of hunger .. . new heart interests ... and more fluttering and flirting at the poetry de- bate with the S. T. Somehow we con- vinced the engineers that Khayyam had something in the ‘book of verses underneath the bough”; the same factor sent the sale of bids to that oh-so-swell dance at the Edison soaring. On Dan Cupid's Day the girls made their overtures to the metropolitan high schools by giving a high tea. Elegant food and the well-rendered music of the newly formed Octette made it a happy time for both guests and hostesses. Hearing of our culinary achievements, via the Prattler, a group of Pratt alumni stationed at Fort McClellan, Alabama, wrote to the girls offering their services as guinea pigs for the experimental foods classes. The plan wasn't feasible in the eyes of the authori- ties, but most of the class have been very close to the home kitchens of late and south- marked postage has all but clogged the mails.

These teach me how to live, and those how to die; these dispel my melancholy by their mirth, and amuse me by their sallies of wit. Some there are who prepare my soul to suffer everything, to desire nothing, and to become thoroughly acquainted with itself. In a word they open the door to all the arts and sciences.” The Library School is the second to be established in the country and is now the oldest school in continuous existence under the same auspices. Our purpose is to give to a carefully selected group of students a professional education and so fit them for positions in all branches of librarianship, and to prepare them for the greater responsibilities which rest on libraries today. In view of these constantly increasing social obliga- tions the Library School has revised its curriculum to meet the new needs of the institutions for which it educates. The School fulfills the requirements and standards of the ac- crediting body of the Board of Education for Librarianship of the American Library Association. WAYNE SHIRLEY ALEXANDER, L. E.

Cc AND SOCIETIES VARSITY HE Pratt Varsity Basketball team had a very successful season with eleven victories and five defeats. The team was fortunate in having many of last year’s team members returning, and having them turn in excellent performances on the court. The captain of the team this year was Alex- ander Stewart, with his able assistants Graham, Johnston, Ryan, Aquino, and Giacona as the usual starters. The other boys, Rapp, Lewis, Niese, Sibley, and Braccia, showed themselves worthy of the Pratt letter when they appeared on the court. This was the second year that the team was under the direction of Coach Hollis Spotts. He is well known in the metropolitan area as an official. The Coach was well pleased with this years team’s performance, especially the second game they played against Baltimore. Every year the team books a few games out of their class to provide the student body with an exciting game in the “big circuit.” This year they picked on Baltimore and C.C.N.Y. Although the “Cannoneers” lost to these schools, our old rival Brooklyn Poly suffered defeat twice this year. BASKETBALL WEARERS OF THE “P” VARSITY A. Stewart, Captain J. Rapp R. Graham M. Lewis C.

Sambach, Cheerleader Cooper Union — 45; Pratt — 54 The basketball season was opened with a bang as the team overpowered a strong Cooper Union team. It was a rough and tumble affair, with the teams settling down as the game progressed, and at the con- clusion our men were playing like a veteran quintet. Tufts — 47; Pratt — 45 This second game was a bit of hard luck for the “Cannoneers.” With less than a min- ute to play, Pratt trailing 43 to 45, Iggy Johnston dropped in one of his famous long set shots to tie the score, but a few seconds later the visitors duplicated the feat, and led by two points. Freezing the ball for the remaining seconds brought victory to Tufts. Queens College — 34; Pratt — 62 The boys won this game with comparative ease, and Pratt's early lead was never seri- ously threatened. The second team played more in this game than in any other game of the season. Newark College of Engineering — 37; Pratt — 55 The Pratt varsity added another victory to its string when it trounced the Newark col- lege. Both teams played pretty sloppy ball at times, but after wiping out the early lead of Newark, the Pratt team quickly surged to the front. Newark University — 42; Pratt — 45 This game was substituted for the New York State Teacher's game. Newark centered their attack around a fast forward man, but the Pratt hoopsters played a better game of ball. Alumni — 46; Pratt — 51 The so called “old grads” tried very hard to win this game, but the varsity managed to eke out a 5 point victory. We must credit the Alumni team for showing us a brand of basketball that was exceptional considering that the boys are supposed to be slowing up. Stevens — 40; Pratt — 32 Over on the Steven's court in Hoboken, the Pratt team went down to a sad defeat. Ap- parently the Alumni had been a bit rough with the fellows for they made some glaring court errors. The score of this game was announced at the S T dance. C.C.N.Y. — 60; Pratt — 39 C.C.N.Y. put on a powerful passing attack which seemed to completely baffle our men. The Prattmen couldn't seem to orient them- selves in the first half, but tried to come back in the second. They outscored their opponents in the second half, scoring 29 to 21. Oh well, they were out of our class. Brooklyn Poly — 46; Pratt — 61 The traditional Pratt-Poly rivalry was much in evidence again as the two teams lined up for the forty-seventh time. With feelings run- ning high the boys really went to town, and sunk the other team. Blue Ridge — 41; Pratt — 48 Blue Ridge sprung into an immediate lead in this, the first of the southern road games. This lead wasn't retained for long, as the “Cannoneers” led by seven points at the half. In the second half Blue Ridge fought back to within one point of tying the score, but with three minutes left to play, the Pratt men turned on the steam, and put the game in the bag. Baltimore — 59; Pratt — 26 The Baltimore Coliseum saw a real scoring spree when Pratt met Baltimore. It is with regret that we cannot say that the scoring was to our advantage. It seemed to be a close game at the start of the contest, but the Baltimore team had other ideas as can be seen from the score. Not offering any ex- cuse for our team’s defeat we cannot help mentioning that Baltimore is one of the great teams in the East. Delaware — 49; Pratt — 55 Seeking revenge for the Baltimore game, our hoopsters took it all out on poor “little” Delaware. The Delaware team averages six feet in height. Led by Bob Graham and Iggy Johnston, the boys piled up a ten point ad- vantage at the quarter bell. The rest of the half was an even contest with the score see- sawing back and forth. Pratt regai ned the lead at the end of the third quarter, and held on to it for the remainder of the game. New York State College of Agriculture — 43; Pratt — 55 Baltimore — 48; Pratt — 39 The powerful Baltimore basketball team visited New York and stopped over at the Pratt gym. It was too bad Al Aquino was not on hand, but he was out with an injury. The team played like demons, and it is com- mon talk that the pep rallies had a lot to do with it. It was a tough game all the way, but the Baltimore team was just a little better than we were. Brooklyn Poly — 40; Pratt — 42 The “Cannoneers” made it four consecu- tive wins over Poly when they squeezed out this close victory. Pratt had top score at the end of all the quarters, and played offensive ball in the first three periods. Poly seemed to have some scoring punch toward the end of the game, but Pratt played superb defen- sive ball, and emerged victorious. New York State Teachers — 44; Pratt — 63 Our hoopmen had an easy time winning this game to wind up the season. Coach Spotts frequently substituted in order that the second team obtai: valuable experience. VARSITY BASEBALL ITH a spring training victory over Adelphi under their belts, the Pratt varsity team was in fine condition for their opening game. The infield was the same as in previous seasons with Andy Braccia at second, Captain Joe Falotico at short, Johnny Mark at third, and Bob Graham behind the plate. The pitching chores were taken over by Bob Miller, with infielders Falotico and Marck ready for mound duty. Old man rain took care of the opening game, and the Drew game was washed out; but this only whetted our team’s enthusiasm and on the twenty seventh of April they inflicted defeat on Upsala; 60 to 2. The next game was played at Trenton against the New Jersey State Teachers College. Apparently some- thing had happened to the team since the Upsala game for the “Cannoneers” played far below their level, and lost by a score of 5 to 4. The next game saw the boys in their usual stride for they defeated Stevens Tech in Hobo- ken by a decisive 9 to 1 score. The team met with defeat at the hands of Rensselear, but took the remaining games of the season. With the closing of the books, we find Pratt winning five and losing two games. This year, as we go to press, the new team is being whipped into shape under the cap- able direction of Coach McKillop. Falotico and Miller are gone, John- : ston and Graham might ¥y have to stay out. Marck is the only “old timer” remaining. The Coach ‘ is counting a lot on Al Aquino, of basketball fame, to come through wie in the tight spots. We hope next year’s book will contain a box score of all wins and no loss- es. ests — i: After the cancellation of their first two games due to inclement weather, Pratt trounced Upsala 6 to 2. Bob Miller turned in a masterful four hit, twelve strikeout hurl- ing performance. The “Cannoneers” played errorless ball and smashed out 11 safeties to win handily. Upsala unable to touch Miller in the first five innings, got their first base runner by virtue of a base on balls. Pratt started their scoring in the third stanza, and from then on it was in the bag. New Jersey State Teachers — 5; Pratt — 4 In the game against New Jersey State, the tables were turned with the ‘‘Cannon- eers” furnishing the comedy. The less said about this game, the better; the important fact being that the final score was 5 to 4 in favor of the boys from across the river. Stevens Tech — 1; Pratt — 9 Traveling over to Hoboken, the Prattmen smashed out a 9 to 1 triumph over the en- gineers from Stevens. Joe Falotico starred in this game; allowing the Tech team only 3 hits. Rensselear Poly Tech — 9; Pratt — 3 This game found our boys muffing them in the field to hand the game to the upstate boys 9 to 3. Captain Falotico and Ted Michaelczyn hit homers for the Pratt team. Stevens Tech — 3; Pratt — 14 The “Cannoneers” scored seven runs in a farcical first inning, strangely reminiscent of a day at Ebbets Field, to rout Stevens Tech by a score of 14 to 3. Four singles, three walks and a galaxy of errors, passed balls and wild pitches, combined in the first inning to give the official scorer a headache, and Pratt lead which they never relin- quished. That made it two defeats over Stevens for this season. New York State Teachers — 5; Pratt — 7 With a late four minute rally, the Pratt “Cannoneers” blasted out fourteen hits to trounce New York State Teachers College, and bring to a close their 1940 home sched- ule. The Pratt attack was led by Bill Good- man and Joe Falotico who collected half of the team’s hits; Goodman driving out 5 sin- gles, and Falotico smashing out a home-run and a seventh inning winning double. New York State Teachers — 0; Pratt — 9 This time the boys went to the home of the New York State Teachers and repeated their week old performance. The Prattmen col- lected 15 hits, while Falotico held down the pitching duties. He struck out 12 batters, and got four for four. The boys had quite an interesting trip to Albany, and while there they did a little sightseeing, and visited many of the prominent places. Alumni — 3; Pratt — 20 When the “Old Men” returned they were greeted with flags and banners flying; signs all over the place ‘Welcome back Alumni”; Beat the Varsity.” All this was not enough inducement, for the varsity smashed through with 20 runs. Some of the returning gradu- ates did not know who to root for — they were impressed with the power of the var- sity team, and yet they did not want to let their old classmates down. All in all the old grads had quite a day, and they promised to get back at the varsity team next year. Pees sports at Pratt are definitely becoming more popular with the passing of each year. Mr. Wright, Ath- letic Director, and Coach William McKillop are the driving force behind this movement. Working together these men have coordinated and set into motion a complex schedule of intermural sports. They have built up during the past years a wide and varied range of sports at Pratt. Today the student makes his choice of the sport in which he wishes to indulge, and there is no doubt but what he will be able to play on one of his class teams. Credit for the fine showing made by our Varsity basketball team goes to our able coach, Mr. Hollis S. Spotts. This is Mr. Spotts’ second year at Pratt Institute and we all agree that he is the man for the driver's seat. These men have given a sports impetus to Pratt for which is due many thanks. Boe drew a tremendous turnout this year. As in the previous years, three leagues had to be formed with eight teams in each. Repeating last year’s feat, the third year Chemicals led the “A” league. Sparked by Zanetti and Clarke, the Chems rode easily to their league champion- ship; but the jinx followed them again this year, and they met their Waterloo in the Institute championships game with the Mech. first year team. Crippled by the loss of Zanetti, who went out early in the game, the team suffered defeat. Trying to gain back some prestige, the Chems challenged the faculty, and the game was played as a preliminary to a varsity game. Again defeat stalked the foot-steps of the Chems, but the game will long be remem- bered. At the end of three overtime periods, the faculty merged victorious with a 37 to 35 score. a lage “Rah-Rah” squad hit its stride again this year with the addition of three new members. ‘‘Sandy” Sambach, the affable arm slinger of cheerleading fame, leads this group of contortionists at every basketball game. The cheer- leaders are awarded major letters for their work, and if anyone thinks it is easy, why ask Mr. Sambach. Introducing new cheers, and revising old ones, our cheerleaders built up a pleasing repertoire. Sambach, backed by tonsil wreck- ers McGowan, Maliha, and Lichty, enticed loud whistles and booms from the gang in the bleachers. Who can for- get Sambach’'s pleading “Let's hear ya!” With their duties over for this year, our cheerleaders wish to megaphone their hearty thanks for the cooperation they received. be a ay HIS year again as with the three preceding annums the Pratt Gymnasium resounded with the clack ping — clack — pong of our favorite indoor sport, table tennis. Indeed, the game has proved so strenuous as to have caused the complete disintegration of the tables originally provided for that purpose. But understanding hearts and benevolent hands have carefully removed any untoward anxieties and so on with the game! At periodic intervals throughout the year, the contenders were to be seen with gritted teeth and wild gaze determinedly pursuing a cel- luloid ball through all phases of serves, drives, chops and cuts; while spectators followed in alternately harmonious unison. The fast and furious matches of the year provided many a neck crick and dizzy spell but who ever said ping pong was not a strenuous game for onlooker as well as player. a ass year’s turnout for boys’ fencing was the largest since that sport was inaugurated at Pratt three years ago. The classes were held on Monday and Tuesday afternoons under the able tutelage of Robert Boyajian, Illustration 111. With outfits and foils supplied by the school, the fencers brought back shades of D’Artagnan as they parried in their canvas jackets, gloves and wire mesh masks. The ultimate aims of fencing include grace and good carriage but before indulging in the actual art itself, considerable time must be spent learning stances, parries and thrusts. Fencing matches with other schols are not scheduled due to lack of enough experienced fencers to compete. However, there were numerous individual matches and tournaments between different groups held during the year. B lesa: from practically all the classes entered the duck pin tournament this year. From the beginning it was go- ing to be a tough fight to determine the champ of the little pins. To give more men a chance to participate in interclass sports, the Athletic Association ruled that big pin bowlers could not compete in the duck pin tournament. This did not seem to effect the quality of the bowlers, as there were many high scores this year. It is difficult to get a strike with rubber ducks, and even a spare is considered very good. The Senior A team won top honors this year. The team composed of Clark, Budde, Bedin, Huda, and Knebel were given a run for their money by the Senior B team, who earlier in the season shared the league lead with Senior A. oe T= Seniors took the handball honors this year and took care of all opposition handily. The team composed of Anastasio Hudyma, Macco, Birnbaum, and Raupp showed some fancy hand and footwork in this game which is pop- ular all over the country. This year marked the inauguration of a new type of tournament: “Double Elimination Tourna- ment.” It has the advantage that each team must be de- feated twice before it is out of the running; thus providing more playing time for the contestents. Handball has a large number of enthusiasts at Pratt, being a game that nearly everyone plays and enjoys. With the new system of elim- ination, and a larger group playing handball each year, it is expected that this sport will be given a major rating. HE pugilistically minded students of Pratt started their training period on Feb. 3, with a weighing in, and a physical checkup. In previous years the boxing class was conducted for the regular gym period. This year the class was opened as a training period for all contenders entering the tournament. Joe Coughlin, who has been boxing instruc- tor for the past two years, supervised the training periods on Mondays and Wednesdays, and through his tutelage, a well trained group of “pugs” appeared in the tournament. Last year it will be remembered that the Chemical En- gieers and the Architects won two titles apiece. The tables were turned this year with the Artsmen tops in leather pushing. Artsmen White, Diestel, and Cominsky, tucked away the featherweight, welterweight, and lightheavy- weight titles respectively. The lightweight title was won by Bill Gall, a second year Chemical, and Apatoky of the Ar- chitects clinched the heavyweight title. OUCHFOOTBALL, the most popular interclass sport at Pratt, brought out so many men that three leagues were formed. The seniors, who inherited such formidable material as Budde, Ramsbothem, and Raupp, took the Senior League title. There is just cause for the Seniors to be proud this year as they possess the enviable record of an unbeaten, and practically unscored upon season in the Senior League. This year's Senior team, a veritable power house, was composed of Anastasio, Tuthill, Lotterhos, Raupp, Ruzicka, Ginter as manager, and Pavelchak as coach. The strong Freshman League finished its season with the first year Mechs on record as the winners of the championship in this division. The final winners in the Lunch League were the Artsmen who defeated the third year Chemicals in the deciding game; 9 to 6. T the sound of the noon hour bell there is a concerted rush to the second floor of the Men’s Club, the cue wielder’s heaven. Here double banks, delicate cuts, and masse shots are made and discussed. There is always a gallery watching the play, and as usual, a few kibitzers. The Mech A team composed of Fawcett, Chiarle, Chwirt, Qhallan, and Braccia, have been officially declared “champs of the green felt tables.’ The five Mechs had little trouble with the opposition, and sailed right through to victory. The intermural sports season has nearly drawn to a close. Surveying the situation we find that there is a great impetus to class sports at Pratt Institute. Most sports were indulged in by so many students that expansion and new schedules are the results. It is to the students advantage to have emphasis put on intermural sports rather than varsity sports. There is more opportunity for action; more opportunity to gain a knowledge of sports; more oppor- tunity to make better students. The Athletic Council, the Athletic Directors, and the faculty are working to graduate good sports from Pratt Institute. At the time of this writing spring has hit Brooklyn with full force. The usual counterpart of spring, baseball, has already made its appearance. Of course, press time for Prattonia comes much before the end of the baseball season but now is the time for prognostication. Putting ourselves out on the proverbial limb, we bet our shirts on the up, and coming Chem III's with the Seniors pushing them hard. This year will see our Varsity baseball team slug its way through to one of its best seasons in years. In closing we wish to thank the Athletic Directors for their assistance in compiling the sports section. Also we want to wish the Varsity baseball team and all the inter- class teams the best of luck this season. GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS!! AND MORE- EADED by Miss Amy Philips Gilbert, supervisor of the Physical Education Department, and her two able assistants, Miss Anita Brady and Mrs. Eliza- beth Deutsch, the girls’ sports program experienced a successful and invigorating year of stimulating athletic activities. In the fall, volley ball, swimming and hockey headed the list of sports. Modern dancing, with many male spectators, captain ball, and fencing characterized the winter activities, while softball, volley ball, and swimming interested the girls in the spring. The outstanding event of the season occured April 2, when the department of Physical Education presented its 3lst Annual Inter-School meet. All phases of the Physical Education course were presented by the girls of the Institute. AWAKE! ARISE! THE ATHLETES ARM LOSES HEN exuberant shouts were heard in the court directly at the back of the gym, it was a sure sign that Fall had arrived here, and that volley ball was again well under way for a dramatic season. The Dietetics II team came through with flying colors to snatch the championship away from the Artists second year team, composed of Advertising Design and Textile Students. The champions chalked up a score of 48 to 33. Hockey, long a favorite recreation of Pratt co-eds, invaded the athletic field in early spring. The flashy red socks and ties of the Art students, and the dazzling yellow acces- sories of the Dietetics added much color to the drab Brooklyn surroundings. The swim- ming season opened with a resounding flash in Pratt's “bathtub.” The call for swimmers beckoned a vigorous and sturdy group of girls to the pool. Art students again on top. ITS STRENGTH B8Y TOO BUC 2. O-EDS rallied to the call of basketball at the beginning of winter, and produced some fast and furious contests, even with the girl's rules. It seems that the Art school girls just swept their opponents off their feet in all sports, for the Artists won the basketball championship. Also included in winter pro- gram was modern dancing, much to the en- joyment of the boys who visit the gym at Noon hour. Miss Edna Poppe has a group of girls who are becoming very excellent fencers. This is one sport which is a particular favor- ite of the girls, and has been continued into the spring because of the many requests. In the spring the girls again take over th e Athletic field; this time for softball. This sport is given preference over baseball, be- cause it takes less practice to gain skill, and hands. THE PRATTLER HE New Year ushered in more than hang- overs and resolutions, for on January 18, the Prattler proudly passed its first birthday. Long a dream of the student body this all- Institute paper came into being in the Spring of 1940 and survived those difficult first six months under the leadership of William Rivchin. 1941, hand in hand with Sachs and Rand, established the Prattler as a permanent in- stitution. Friday nights were reverently set aside by the staff for dummying (and “cok- ing”) in the best newspaper tradition. Despite the gaiety and informality of the group, these sessions have instilled qualities of leadership and co-operation which should wear well in professional and social life. An ideal extra-curricular activity, the Prattler also gives participating students much valuable experience in such journalistic tech- niques as dummying, make-up, proof-read- ing head-writing and story development. Provisions were made this year for alum- nae subscriptions to the paper. Their support, although not as whole hearted as desired, has lent encouragement to plans for an en- larged and improved Prattler within the next few years. Aware that the Prattler has attained only the first rungs of the perfection it can realize in the future, the retiring staff leaves its suc- cessors all its hopes and dreams for the development of these potentialities. THE STUDENT BULLETIN HE Student Bulletin comes out every Fri- day. In it one will find interesting tid-bits of the happenings around the Institute. It gives a little information on the graduated students, and acts as sort of a Winchell’s column on the faculty. Notices of Student Council meetings, Noon Hour services, Or- chestral Music, and other news that is im- portant to the student is published. All technical speakers for the week are listed, and any new additions to the faculty are told to the student. THE DATA BOARD HE Data Board is a newspaper for en- gineers, by engineers. In the basement of the Men's Club, the office of the Data Board is usually surrounded with secrecy; — usual- ly trying to get out just before the Prattler goes to press. Thomas Renart, the editor, and his staff which resembles a chemical conven- tion, turn out a good paper six times a year. Since it happened this year, we thought that you should know that a certain sports article appeared in the Data Board and the Prattler in exactly the same form. What we tried to find out, but couldn’t was which paper had it first. The Data Board has been a great help in uniting the three groups of engineers at Pratt. This has been brought about by the continual reporting of the activities of each branch. In each issue the three technical societies give a report of what has been go- ing on, and there are several reports on the various technical meetings which have been held. The Student Board, which is the symbol of the engineer's unity, has its own column which it uses to inform the students of inter- engineer activities. Technical bits of in- formation are also included in an issue of the paper. THE BAND tT year there was need for a band to supply music for the various occasions around the Institute, and to satisfy this need the Pratt band was founded in the early Fall of the year. A call for members resulted in a great number of replies coming in from all parts of the Institute. The first selection chosen was the tune “Down the Field” which was followed by the ‘Alma Mater”, and the “Beer Barrel Polka.” Alice Reisinger led the band down the street during the Halloween Festival, and has continued to do a good job of waving a baton at the Pep Rallies, the Basketball games, and other functions. The Institute at last has a band, and mem- bership in this organization has grown so large that it has decided to grow into an orchestra, keeping the brass and drums for the Band, ready as usual to perform for the school. From a band member it was learned that the practices, while arduous, have been lots of fun, and has provided a new interest for all members. At the rehearsal before Christ- mas, the band presented Mr. Cameron, its faculty advisor, with a tipped, snake-wood baton; to replace the dow that had previous- ly been waved around in space. PRATT PLAYSHOP NEW dramatical and musical society was formed this year by the Student Council which was composed of the Play- shop, the Band, and the Glee Club. With the aid furnished by the Council, the Playshop has moved rapidly along, in cooperation with the other members of the society, and is ready to put on their annual production. The play chosen for this year’s stage-show is Maxwell Anderson's play, ‘Saturday's Children.” Membership in the Playshop is open to any member of the Institute that has some interest in the varied and intriguing phases of the theatre. The play presented each year demands a great deal of work not only from the people who will enact the drama, but from people who take part in designing and building the set, in costume designing, in makeup, in lighting, in sound effects, publicity and advertising. The play is selected by the group, and production is started under the supervision of the director, who is also in charge of casting. The Playshop is looking forward to the future when a possibility of a super super production is shown upon the stage, in which the three parts of the society will play an important role. The Playshop is bound to- gether by the sincerity and ability of its members. A.I.Ch.E. HE Wohler Society of Pratt Institute was replaced by the American Society of Chemical Engineers in January 1940. All chemical engineers in the Institute are mem- bers of the Society. Each year the Society plans quite a lively program for its members; this not only includes inspection trips, but technical speakers as well. The first inspec- tion trip was to the Trommer’s brewery in East Orange, New Jersey. It was a most in- teresting trip, not only from the standpoint of the equipment and operations seen, but from the fact that samples were given out as well. About the time the yearbook comes out the Society is busily making plans for its forthcoming formal dance and banquet. These two events are the highlights of the season. The banquet is the most popular feature of the year, for here the students and the instructors really let their hair down. THE PALETTEERS HE Paletteers is an organization in the Art School which welcomes the incom- ing freshmen, sponsored exhibitions, and in- vites guest speakers over to the Institute to address the student body. Every Christmas they dress dolls which amaze their practical and sophisticated friends. Also they hold a Christmas party which is not readily for- gotten. A.S.M.E. HE student branch of the American So- ciety of Mechanical Engineers located at Pratt Institute is among the active branches in the East. Last year the student member- ship in the Pratt branch was one of the largest in the surrounding area. Francis All- man is its chairman, and Mr. Hunter, of the Mechanical Department, is the Honorary chairman. As we went to press, the branch was getting ready for the annual convention to be held at the Hotel St. George in Brooklyn. Here the students of several schools, includ- ing Pratt, will present papers on technical subjects. The representative from Pratt is chosen by a paper contest held within the school itself. An active program has been planned which includes several inspection trips. Our own branch has sponsored sev- eral inspection trips: — one to La Guardia airport where American Airlines played the role of host, and showed the embryo en- gineers their workshops. On another occa- sion the New York Public Library invited the branch to come over and inspect their power plant. A.LE.E. HE American Institute of Electrical En- gineers, Pratt Institute branch, had quite an active program for the year 1940. Under the guidance of Roger Tuthill, its chairman, and Mr. Donald Wright, its Counselor, it held a great many meetings and sponsored several interesting inspection trips. The high- light of the year was the Second Annual Smoker which was held at Pratt in Decem- ber. The program consisted of trips around our school, movies, speakers, and refresh- ments. The inspection trips were to Moore- McCormack Steamship Lines, Underwriters Laboratories, Otis Elevators, and the Pratt power plant. Alumni spoke to the members about their jobs; and following this talk up, a student listing booklet was put out. THE PRATT INSTITUTE RADIO CLUB The Radio club was organized last year under the auspices of the A.I.E.E. Its mem- bers consisted of the “hams” of the Institute and any other student who wished to be- come familiar with the operation of radio. The licensed “hams” set up code classes in which the future radio operator could learn the Morse code. Several graduates of the class have passed the code examinations given by the government, and have secured their amateur radio operator's license. The Station, located on the top of the Engineering building, was licensed by the Federal Com- munication’s Committee as W2NOD, Janu- ary, 1941. The Club has quite an active program con- sisting of Code Classes every noon hour in the Club “shack” the Club station which broadcasts every noon hour and after school, reaching the four corners of the world; in- spection trips to the different broadcasting companies in New York and vicinity; and an Open House held at the end of each school year. Another feature of the club is that it obtains tickets to radio broadcasts for its members. Its faculty advisor is Mr. Henderson of the Electrical Department. THE DEBATING CLUB The men, who love to argue, have formed themselves a club in order that they can argue with some new people;—the Debating Club. The club has joined the National Inter- collegiate Debating Society, and as a result have held non-decision debates against Rhode [sland State College, and the U. S. Military Academy. The topic chosen for this year is—Resolved: That the nations of the western hemisphere should form a perma- nent union.” The manger of the club is E. H. Onsdorf, and the faculty advisor is Mr. Gertz, of the English department. THE PRATT INSTITUTE OUTING CLUB HIS club was organized to satisfy the toe desire to participate in outdoor sports and activities. For many years both students and the instructors of Pratt have gone on skiing, hiking, and canoe trips in small groups. Several of them had belonged to other college outing clubs. It was the com- bination of these people and their ideas that brought about the organization of the Pratt Institute Outing Club. The PIOC is a member of the Intercollegi- ate Outing Club Association. This organiza- tion helps the various clubs, established at other colleges, to get together and exchange ideas, and fosters joint outings. Throughout the year there are numerous weekend out- ings sponsored by member clubs such as Dartmouth, R.P.I., Vassar, and Swarthmore. College Week and Spring Conference, the two largest annual outings, offer a splendid opportunity to meet other outing club mem- bers. The activities sponsored by the PIOC; a movie on the Swiss technique of skiing; a ski trip to Fahnestock Park, Manchester, Vt., and to Stowe, Vt. Membership in the Outing Club is open to any member of the Institute, both students and instructors. THE S.E.S.E. HE S.E.S.E. — Student Education for Seek- ing Employment takes up where the school leaves off. The purpose of the S.E.S.E. is to orient students in seeking employment in the fields of Foods and Clothing. Members of the H.S.A. faculty, and a student com- mittee, work with Miss Duntz in planning Assembly programs which will fulfill this purpose. Outstanding people, both in these fields and in other fields such as modeling, cosmetics, style design, and others, give lec- tures and demonstrations to the student body. Alumnae, who are holding respon- sible positions have given much helpful advice and information on the respective merits of various dietetic and designing posi- tions. One of the most important features of the S.E.S.E. is the information given out on how a prosvective employee should dress. This has heloed many a qirl secure a posi- tion. Many field trips help to illustrate the principles that the students have heard about. THE ARTSMEN HE Artsmen were first organized in 1923 by Mr. William Longyear, Supervisor of the Advertising Department. The first presi- dent of the Artsmen was William Gray, an internationally famous aviator, and the pres- ent president is Vincent O’Brien. Mr. Long- year now holds down the position of Honor- ary President and Faculty Advisor. The pur- pose of this organization is to further the art student's interest in the athletic and so- cial events around the school, and to increase his educational interest in the field of art. Members of the Artsmen may be recognized by the pin that they wear; one obtains this pin after a payment of dues. The program for this past year has been a very interest- ing one. The Artsmen have invited many prominent speakers in the field of illustration and advertising over to Pratt to give talks on their work. The Artsmen sponsor many art exhibits where the student may show off some of his work. THE ARCHITECTS CLINIC HE Architect's Clinic is a very valuable aid to the graduating architect. It gives the student an excellent chance to come into intimate contact with problems that he will meet with in the outside world. Here, for a very nominal fee, a person may have his architectural problems solved by one of the students. The architect will look over the problem, and even visit the local where the problem is located. As soon as a solution is arrived at, the student is proud to see his thoughts on paper actually come true in the form of wood, brick, cement, or other building materials. S T STUDENT BOARD HE S T Student Board is made up of the class presidents of the engineering school. It holds meetings several times a month in the Men’s Club. The faculty ad- visor of the Board is Mr. McKenzie of the Mechanical Department. This year the board thought of new plans to introduce the incom- ing freshman to the school. Instead of a smoker, the Board planned an Induction Day, where the freshman was shown about the school, and saw movies. This new method met with huge success and the freshman had a good time. H.S.A. STUDENT BOARD T has always been the purpose of the H.S.A. Student Board to foster a coopera- tive school spirit among the various sections of which it is composed. In this way a unit is formed and standards are set for all to follow. The board itself is composed of the Director of the H.S. éA. school, supervisors of the various departments, and class and club officers. Meetings are held monthly and at this time the minutes of the previous meet- ings are read. In order to remain in office the officers must retain passing grades. These standards are necessary to assure a high standard of ideals for the rest of the student body to follow. THE DIETETICS CLUB HE purpose of the Dietetics Club is to establish a bond between our scholastic and professional lives. It endeavors to lay a foundation of interest, and eventual mem- bership in the Alumni. This year the club’s activities entered various channels. The club sponsored a very enjoyable St. Patrick’s party. Present at the party was a speaker from the commercial field of dietetics who gave many interesting bits of information. Of great value to the students was the round table discussion held on the newly instituted degree course for dietitians at Pratt. The Thanksgiving and Christmas assembly pro- grams were sponsored by the club in con- junction with the Artisans club. Many of the members attended the very interesting meet- ings of the American Dietetic Association. These meetings were held at the Hotel Penn- sylvania, in New York. The members that attended came back to Pratt, and gave a talk upon what they had seen and heard. The most outstanding activity was the work that was begun on a cook book. This would con- tain many original recipes of famous dishes from foreign lands. The club members are collecting these recipes, and are testing them out. THE ARTISANS CLUB HE activities of the Artisans club, so far this year, have resulted in meetings of tne student body with the executive com- mittee. The latter group is planning for an intormal tea early in March. This will be held at the Women’s Club, after classes, and Miss Jean Arms will be the guest speaker. Miss Arms is working with Vogue magazine; on the merchandising staff. She will hold an informal discussion at the conclusion of her talk in order to answer any questions that might arise. On April 15, in the school assembly, another guest speaker will ad- dress the students of the H. S. A. school. This speaker will also hold a position on Vogue's staff. As can be seen from the above, the Artisans Club is composed of Costume De- sign and Dressmaking students of Pratt. The purpose of the club is to get the student familiar with the happenings in the business world. It accomplishes this task by inviting several personages, each a specialist in some field of clothing manufacture, each year to give talks to the club members. Here the members get many new ideas in clothing design, and the methods of manufacturing. THE WOMEN’S CLUB O Man's Land, the Women’s Club, is really the starter of the social season at Pratt. For it is here, at the two Sunday afternoon teas, that the incoming girls of the school meet the new fellows. Amid tea, cookies, punch, and other refreshments, in- troductions fly all over the place. During the remaining part of the year, the feeling of welcome and friendliness still prevails. Girls are invited to come in and relax, and forget all their school problems while listening to the radio. Many classes like to hold meet- ings and suppers there, and Mrs. Hewlett sees that all goes well, and everyone is pleased. The Women’s Club is home to many of the girl students who live a distance from the school, because of its homey atmosphere. THE REST HOUSE 1: an engineer cuts his finger, an artsman gets paint in his eye, a dietetian fresh- man, eats her own cake, the Rest House is the first place they visit. Under the guidance of Miss Hale and Mrs. Hatch the Rest House has done a fine job in keeping the Pratt students well and healthy. THE MEN’S CLUB PEAKING of “blitzkriegs’’, the Men's Club has been invaded ... by women. Yes sir, the women have taken over the job of “beautifying” the hangout of the men of the Institute. As can be witnessed from the room on the ground floor, rear, the finished product is going to be a modern, up-to-date, light colored men's lounge. To you, who will come back, the only recognizable portion will be the exterior and bowling alleys. The Club acts as host to the various smokers that are held throughout the year. When two classes get to arguing, they usually finish it out, either on the club's bowling alleys, in the basement, or over the pool tables on the second floor. Many an important bridge problem is solved on the first floor, and we don’t mean a bridge over a river. For the students that live around school, the club has a mail service whereby a member can have his mail sent directly to his club. During the Noon Hour the club is usually packed on all floors. All the magazines, even the 1920 copy of. . ing alleys resound to echoes of falling pins. . is taken out. The bowl- The pool sharks dominate the second floor. This is one pool hall where the best of people hang out. The top floor is a bedlam of the noise made by engineers, trying to eat and play pinochle at the same time. Once in a while a brave fellow will endeavor to tackle the piano. The student run cafeteria is a great aid to those students who do not bring their lunch. The Data Board has its office in the base- ment of the club, and it is usually filled with noise of typewriters — some typing out stories, some doing letters, and others home- work. The second floor holds the G. A.'s sanctum santorum, where all the fellows from the gym get together and raise a little . rumpus. Mr. Wright of the Athletic department is the club’s supervisor, while Julius, takes care of the general work around the club. The club is supported by funds obtained from men’s tuition. The club trys to retain self supporting by selling cigarettes, candy, etc. As can be seen, the club is an excellent place to do a work book. ALMA MATER Towering far above her neighbors Shop and mart and hall, Stands the home of student-labors, Noblest of them all! At each meeting, give her greeting, Raise the proud salute! Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Hail, Pratt Institute! In our hearts her precepts linger, Her example gleams, Showing with unerring finger Guerdon of our Dreams. ‘ Hpurgiesaadiee) At our meeting, for our greeting Bring her noble fruit, Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Hail, Pratt Institute! Round the world the chain extending, Each to the other binds, All her honored name defending, Hearts and hands and minds. At our meeting, give her greeting, Raise the proud salute! Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Hail, Pratt Institute! HROUGH the medium of the Civil Aeronautics Au- thority’s Pilot Training Courses, which were inaugur- ated at Pratt in October, 1939, ninety-eight Pratt students, including five future Amelia Earhart's, have not only learned to fly, but have become full-fledged aviators. The students have secured their private licenses by passing the regular prescribed ground and flying tests under government supervision. In addition, nineteen Pratt private pi- lots have passed the C.A.A.’s secondary or acrobatic pilot's training courses, which were inaugurated at Pratt last fall. At present, thirty Pratt students, including two girls are enrolled in these two courses. ROUND school classes in aviation at Pratt are supervised by Mr. F. S. Egilsrud, and are conducted by Mr. Arthur A. Collard and Mr. Warren M. Hottle. Each primary student must have 72 hours of instruction in ground school courses which in- clude navigation, meteorology, history of aviation, theory of flight, parachutes, aircraft power plants and aircraft instru- ments and regulations. After eight hours of actual flying under an instructor's tutelage, the pupil performs his first solo flight. When the cub aviator has mastered barrel-rolls, loops and spins to the satisfaction of his instructor and himself, he makes his first cross-country flight. The training at Pratt is supplement- ed by the study of equipment now in possession of the Institute. This equipment includes a two-seater Fleet biplane powered by a 125 horsepower Kinner motor, two Bliss-Jupiter motors, 800 horsepower, a 220 horsepower Lycoming motor, and a con- verted auto-engine, 812 horsepower. With a prerequisite of forty hours instruction, students may continue their studies in Secondary or Acrobatic Flying at the Roosevelt Field, where Fleet planes are used. RATT INSTITUTE, in keeping with our country’s call for home defense, has set up courses in the intriguing subject of camouflage. “Camouflage”, a term borrowed from the French meaning to dis- guise, has been practiced extensively by the Chinese and German armies with what results we have seen from the present conflict. Captain Peter Rodyenko, probably the finest authority on camouflage in the country, has been chosen as the head of the new department, and is determined to bring this country’s standard up to those set by the masters in the field. He has been engaged in camouflage experimenta- tion for the last sixteen years, and truth of his ability lies in the fact that the results of his experiments have been published in several nationally famous magazines. The armies of Great Britain, Canada and the United States have all sought advice Cee OO. U-F LL A GE Cro. U 8S E from the Captain on camouflage matters, and Pratt Institute has been barraged with fan-mail from the army and all parts of the country since his appointment. The two courses offered at Pratt Institute will consist of both lectures and laboratory in- struction. The work will be done on the Pratt Long Island estate which Charles Pratt offered for their exclusive use. At the disposal of the students at all times will be an airplane, an aerial camera, and a photo lab to create slides relating to the work — there is to be found the largest collection of slides in the country. Only 150 can be accommodated in the lecture courses and 50 in laboratory work; therefore, preference is given to students of draft age. Military camouflage has been offered to the art students, and industrial camouflage to the architectural students, whose knowledge of buildings and structures qualifies them for this field. BOS Doky gM (eae CoA N N O WN HE Al l Institute Day is primarily a freshmen rally to be held in the fall of the school year in order to give the new students a chance to become acquainted with their fellow stu- dents. It is to include, among other things, athletic events, a parade and a dance. Proposed by Robert F. Nadeau, alumnus of the class of Mechanical Engineering 1939, the field day known this year as “Hallow’een Festival’ was designated to promote the spirit of cooperation among all the students of the In- stitute. Witches, goblins, cares, troubles, all were tied to a rocket and sped off to the Never-Never land of forgetfulness. Although the May Day” of two years ago was highly successful, the ‘'Hallow’een Festival” under the chairmanship of Joseph Lauinger proved that Lady Luck is not quite as elusive and fickle as one would believe. R O A R E D—A WN OD nH ©: ow T HE firing of the Library Park Cannon at 2:00 o'clock, was the signal for the start of the Hallow- ‘een Festival” activities. The Institute parade composed of all the classes, led by their mascots, class banners and three floats decorated in the style of the New Orleans Mardi Gras, was lined up in front of the Men's Club on Grand Avenue. As each class with its mascot arrived, it took its place in the ranks amid the usual pre-event hubbub. The parade ran along Grand Avenue to DeKalb where it turned right and then proceeded along to Ryerson, made another right turn, then con- tinued on to Willoughby where it stopped. A judges stand was located on Ryerson Street near DeKalb Avenue. At this point the mascots were observed, en- joyed and adjudged by a faculty committee. When the paraders had strutted sufficiently, everyone as- sembled at the Library Park gate where the crowning of the “Queen of the Festival” took place. After the ceremony the Queen and her attendants lead the pa- rade to the Athletic field. At the Athletic field the awards for the mascots were made and various athletic events were run off. There was a Tug-O-War between the various schools, male and female competing; a three legged race in which all students had an opportunity to enter and win a medal; a two hundred twenty yard race for men; shot-put and push ball for both men and women. The various clubs, hoping to capture the in- terest of those who might be bored with athletics, ar- ranged booths along Ryerson Street displaying their wares, and heartily encouraged any and every sign of attention. CARNIVAL IN BROCCO After all the events were run off at the Athletic field, the spectators themselves joined in a 50 yard dash toward Ryer- son Street and Willoughby, where the Pratt gymnasium is situated, to dance to the unsurpassed music of Roger Cullen’s orchestra, one of the most popular collegiate bands on record. At this dance, members of all four schools let their hair down and joined in the jive. There were novelty dances in which students had a chance to participate for novelty prizes awarded by the committee. During the dance, awards were made to the students who had won the athletic events and the trophies were then presented to the class president of the class who won the mascot award and to the school who had the highest number of points for the events of the day. The “Queen,” Bea Gould, presented these awards. The dance lasted to 7 o’clock and everybody went home exhausted, tired, but so happy! The third All Institute day to be held in the Fall of this year will be run along the same ideas as the last two, but with new and bigger improve- ments here and there. The new committee for the third Festival hopes that all students will endeavor to enjoy another day of good cheer and spirit. The biggest improvement to be worked on is how to keep the clouds in the sky from shedding their waters right in the middle of the festivities. But never fear, our able en- gineers are working now on a system of out- lets to pipe this unwanted surplus to the drought regions. The H. S. A., wanting to do its part, is hoping to get up stands for “‘hot-dogs, lemon- ade, pop-corn, cracker jack, a prize in each and every pack.” All they need is a little encour- agement.
