20 THE EMERY WEAL The Annual Tech. Banquet, Friday Evening, February 7th, 1941, Palliser Hotel. HEC1TIQHC The Electrical’s this year number twenty-five and come from all parts of Alberta and from British Columbia. We are represented on the Emery Weal staff and on the Spring Term Students’ Council. The two Lits. sponsored by the Electrics were taken charge of by Elec. II’s, but they were aided well by the Elec. I’s, who performed in a pie-eating contest and a musical quiz. In shop we are engaged mostly in winding arma¬ tures and field coils, although several transformers were also constructed. Our house-wiring practice was done under the supervision of Mr. Browning, up in the “sweat box” or the mezzanine floor, constructed by the Woodworkers and Farm Construction students. One of our most popular classmates, Bob Ellis, joined the R.C.E. early in March, and in the second- year class, Walt Maberly has joined the R.C.A.F. The whole class joins in wishing them luck. The number of second-year students is reduced from that of previous years, but they still constitute a large part of the student body. Our shop work consists of anything from the installation of electrical fixtures, such as heating the instructors’ cars, to alterations in the lighting system at the Coste Home. The buzzer system, which de¬ cides whether you get a late slip or not, was designed by a prominent student under Mr. Browning’s super¬ vision. The clever lighting effect at the dramatic per¬ formance was arranged by two students (with the aid of many fuses). The Elec. II’s were also well represented on the Students’ Council, holding a majority in the winter term. The Emery Weal staff is likewise comprised of several Electric II’s. In conclusion, we are all acutely aware of the fact that there is a war on in which we all wish to share our efforts, and upon graduation we all hope to fill some important place in the war machine, either in Canada or overseas, to help preserve the vast empire of which we are proud to be a part.
