published by the SENIOR CLASS of ROCHESTER ATHENAEUM and MECHANICS INSTITUTE Rochester, New York MAS3E3L ie? mumsKDEir This 1933 RAMIKIN is dedicated to a woman whose association with the student body has been a source of strength and inspiration. She has held high the standard of student activity, ever urging her fellow workers on to greater success. To show our appreciation for the time and services that she has given to the student body, we dedicate this book to her. Character is the diamond that scratches every other stone. Helen H.

It will not be like today or yesterday. We may not repeat our emotional peaks, our joys of achievement, our pattern of living. Life is on a high road and we must keep moving. We look back to gauge our progress and to muster courage for the road ahead. In the past neither the road nor the scenery has been of our own making. Even the direction and progress has been only partially ours. Seldom have our com- panions been of our choosing. But from now on, family, teachers, home, friends, each will go his own special way. Life at its best means a growing breadth of co-operation between new people and involves increasing adjustments to new social mechanism. More and more your condition and progress will be the results of your own efforts. Three years at Mechanics Institute has matured you for life on the high road. It has taught you to care for yourself in the open, it has given you the tools and skills of a traveler. Most of all, I hope it has helped you to be always conscious that you carry with you the confidence, hopes, and affection of those you have left behind; confidence in your high sense of values and high aims, hopes for your worthy progress and affection expressing itself in sincere loyalties of deed and spirit.

We have enjoyed that spirit of wholesome camaraderie. We are the richer for those rare associations with members of the faculty and our fellow classmates. The class of 1933 leaves Mechanics Institute confident that our three years of intensive training have prepared us to meet the problems of the future with an open minded zeal that will lead to ultimate success. For the classes that are to follow, we leave a rich heritage, one of good fellowship and goodwill, we also leave the challenge of our progressive school, the cultiva- tion of its rich resources of association and research, the integrity of its growing traditions, and the upholding of its intellectual standards. The leadership of our school we leave to the class of '34 and to the entire student body, the privilege of cooperation which is its keynote.

Confident Frosh, we were the largest Freshman Class in the history of the school, but we found little strength in numbers in the traditional tug-of-war at Red Creek. A dousing in the chilly waters of I he historic stream failed to dampen our ardor for our new found Alma Mater. Our first opportunity to give vocal expression to our effervescing class spirit came when the Student Council was reorganized. Not content with a mere reorganization, our class helped that august body acquire the spacious quarters it now occupies, then, of course, to keep apace of the business-like atmosphere of the new office, '33 helped form the Executive Council. Having been successful promoters in one reorganization, we looked for new fields to conquer and found a good one in the Glee Club. The Girls and Boys Glee Clubs were combined into one group directed by Mr. Casad, under whose genial leadership the new Club made great progress. The school year 1931-32 had barely begun before several of our classmates feeling the urge of brotherly love, formed the Zeta Tau Zeta Fraternity. The socialistic urge became more widespread when the Photo-Techs and the Chemi- cals joined hands across the hall and formed the âmica. The big flurry of the year, of course, came with the announcement of the new H-D-L grading system. Many a quivering underclassman tried to cover his doubts with an air of bravado. And truth to tell, the Upperclassmen weren't nearly as assured as they tried to look. Many a social career was made and broken that year of 1931-32 when the smoking room was abolished, relegating those who love to recline on the upper portions of their spines to the front steps of Shop Building. And then 1932-33, a kaleidoscope of social affairs-âFraternity and Sorority Dances at BevierâGlee Club Concert at the First Presbyterian Churchâa dance at the Instituteâand the Inter-Fraternal Council's Mardi Gras at the Y. M. C. A. with a basket ball game preceding the danceâthe Dorm Formal with Curly JohnsonâJimmy Lunnceford whooping it up for the Junior Promâ and the Senior Ball?- words just fail us. Any âdepression that hit M. I. this past year was strictly financial, since social affairs were greater than ever. And so, the class of 1933 looks back with a pleasant smile, but looks forward with cool confidence, self-assured in a feeling of ultimate conquest. 50 JUNIORS M I K I N_____________ -----------------------f JUNIOR CLASS M. L GURNEE....................................President G. E. COY......................................Secretary W. M. VELEY ...................................Treasurer We, the Junior Class, entered the second year at Mechanics Institute with the hope that the record-climb started in the first year would continue unbroken. At the end of this our second year, sincere appreciation is extended to every member of this class in recogni- tion of the spirit of cooperation and good sportsmanship which has made the accomplishment of our aim possible. It goes without saying that the same spirit of cooperation and sportsmanship will carry through the class as the Seniors of '34. We are confident that the even tenor of success maintained through the past two years will remain unchanged and that we, too, can fill our place creditably in facing the future with courage. 52 MECHANICS JUNIOR CHEMICAL Gorman Farrell Faso Dower Clark Harper Morth S wader Groh Lauterbach Donshy Stewart Bishop JUNIOR CONSTRUCTION Glew Miller Dwyer Kemp Drummond Clark Bigler Meyer Campbell BruSQuifti Morns Sitter ly Foster Popp Hale Facer Snyder Blodgett Da y Roy Ackroyd Getty Gilmore 53 AM I K I N____ --------------âf JUNIOR ELECTRICAL Funk Bowden Thomas .Stanat Quigley Keefe M tiles Waters Gould Schultz Munn Larson Broughton Tollman Leiske Crowell Penner Cottrell Tooley Guinther Starmer Davis Parker JUNIOR MECHANICAL Mowson Heaton B Hall Gosnelf Crehan Finsterwalder Edgecombe age Dd ell Hopkins Alexander Burns Moron Gotts Montgomery Olsen Harrtngton Stanton Scudder Salen Warcup Camenga F.

We have been your understudy for two years and have received many benefits from your leadership, cooperation and experience. We accept the responsibilities and leadership of the student group which you leave with us and will endeavor to carry the high standards of our school through '34. It is with regret we bid you farewell after this close and worth while association for the past two years; yet a feeling of pride and confidence supersedes all pride in the record you have made here at school and confidence in your ability to cope with the future. Your chance has come to bring honor and distinction to the Institution whose greatest interest is in your behalf, not only as a class but as individuals. We wish you the success you well deserve and know that each day will bring you nearer the attainment of your goal. JUNfORITIS Good Morning, Dr. Dolittle. âGood morning, Dr. Doless. I'm glad to see you. âDr. I've come to consult you about an important malady which is revolutionizing one of our fine old educational centers here in the city. Um? Yes, it sounds interesting. Go ahead, Dr. Dolittle. Over on Plymouth Avenue at Mechanics Instituteâa wonderfully progressive school, Dr.âthere is a group of people who have what I choose to term Junioritis and the effects of it are amazing. âJust who possesses this, Dr,? âWhy a group of young people who are midway in their careers at Mechanics, men and women retailers, art and mechanical studentsâscattered from no particular division or rather from all divisions of the school. âWhat would you say is peculiar to this group, Dr.? âTheir energy is amazing, not only their energy, but their versatility, and their originality. Such, I would say, sum up the symptoms of Junioritis best of all. âBut what makes you think they possess all these, my friend? âLook at the gala Prom they put on over at the Knights of Columbus. Jim Lunsford's orchestra played and he said to me the other night when I was treating his arm that that was one of the most successful dances for which he had played. âThe people with this Junioritis are entirely social, Dr.? âWhy, my dear sir, no. They lead politically at the dorm, have good positions in the business world, athletically they're keen, scholastically away up, and as leaders at school, there's nothing amiss. âWell, Dr. Doless, I must admit that I'm flattered that you should include me in your scheme. Together, I hope we shall be able to learn the secret of this Junioritis. How it would revolutionize this world! 58 SM ECHANIC5! $ts?

Long live the good old Pollyanna spirit so when speaking of the 1932-33 Frosh we'll say it's great to be green instead of blue. Green we were. September found us homesick, lonesome, shy, awkward or what uncomplimentary adjective for insignificance have you? This homesick feeling was certainly taken care of by the initiation week which was staged by the good old upperclassmen with their friendly and parental feeling. We were taught the strains of that tender, touching balad Oh How We Love Our Upper- classmen which was sung so fervently by all Frosh. We've almost forgotten those spankings which the fellows felt so keenly. Here we pause to contribute part of the credit for our progression to the upperclassmen who so parentally took charge of the non-rod-sparing act. To this alone do we contribute the credit for our charming class of today. And speaking for the girls we'll give to the initiators a huge vote of thanks for those proposals which the Frosh fellows so cunningly made. In the future, our many nephews and nieces will no doubt often hear of Auntie's many proposals at Mechanics Institute. On September Twentieth, we elected officers and secured our new deal. At last we were recognized by the upperclassmen, (But how we were recognized). Then, we got sweet Revenge, For at the closed dance held in October, we were extremely pleased at being able to kick out some fifteen Juniors and Seniors. The open dance of December 16th was a peach! Dashing rhythm, dim lightsâ wellâyou know how that goes over! We've decided to buy Sweaters with numerals for all Frosh Team members. We're really doing it so next year's Freshman girls will get the same thrill we did when those numeraled heroes issue the brotherly toothpaste grin we all know so well. Thoughtfulâthat's us.

The Society was named after Captain Henry Lomb, the founder of the Institute, whose life activities and high quality of character inspired its organization. The ideals of citizenship and unselfish service so conspicuously exemplified by Captain Henry Lomb are pointed out as the goal of each member of this organization. This Society is empowered to elect each year a proportion of the graduating class.

SITTERLEE ELROY HOEFFLER The Club of Mechanics Institute was organized in 1929 by Charles Gala and the letter men of that year for the sole purpose of instilling a stronger school spirit and unity of action among those promoting athletics at Mechanics Institute and the student body. Its membership consists only of those men who earn their l'M for participation in varsity wrestling or basketball. At the beginning of the 1932-33 athletic season, the club published a schedule of the wrestling meets and basketball games, together with the membership of the squads. This presented to the student body a schedule which here-to-fore had never been available. The M Club is making possible a closer relationship between the student body and athletics. 68 The high scholastic standing maintained through the past year, and the wide variety of activities participated in indi- cates that M. I. students are striving for a âwell rounded education The schol- astic record is pleasingly indicative of the fact that students realize fully that a high rating here is a worthwhile achieve- ment Not only is the school recognizing high scholastic standing in the Henry Lomb Awards, and athletic achievements in the awarding of letters, but we are pleased to note that organizations within the school are offering scholastic prizes The Inter-Fraternity Council presents a cup annually to the Fraternity attaining the highest scholastic average, and the Inter-Sorority Council is now giving a similar award. It is hoped that awards such as Henry Lomb and athletic letters can be earlier in the school year so that seniors who do attain these can have the recognition due them for their achievements while they are still in school. This we believe would arouse an even greater interest in the attainment of honors. muttMtiirtf ;yf suis?! c. ORAUTIGAM â GOVERNING BODIES 4! K I N THE STUDENT COUNCIL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MR.

Freshman, Industrial Art MARIAN DAVIS .....................................Freshman, Applied Art The Student Council and Executive Council compose a group representative of the student body for the purpose of self-government and maintenance of high ideals, scholarship and sportsmanship. It was organized in 1915 and consists of a faculty advisor and one representative from each of the Freshman, Junior and Senior Classes of the schools of Industrial Arts, Applied Arts and Home Economics. In 1931 this group became the Executive Council and was supplemented by a Student Council comprised of one representative from each recognized school organization. During the past year, the council has had several important issues brought to its attention. A complete clarification of rules and regulations governing Freshman initiation has been compiled and will be inaugurated in the Fall. In accordance with the recommendation of the past council and because of the success of the Guest Ticket plan in athletic activities, the same plan has again been used. Due to some dissatisfaction in the manner and equality of distribu- tion to both the student body and alumni, new plans supplementing those already effective have been devised in collaboration with the executive committee of the A1 umni Association. 72 Randall Kelly Reiman H. Cart ion Dix Powers Short Beiber Tucker Field Holitrom INTER-FRATERNAL COUNCIL In the fall of 1922, three existing fraternities. Phi Sigma Phi, Chi Delta Phi, and Chi Epsilon Phi, feeling the need of closer cooperation and unity in fraternal affairs at Mechanics, had a meeting for the purpose of forming a new organiza- tion to be called the Inter-Fraternal Council. Under the capable leadership of Gunnar Wiig, this small group soon proved valuable and fostered a stronger feeling of fellowship among fraternity men, and offered a means by which the fraternities became a leading factor in the business and social life of the school. The Inter-Fraternal Council's governing body consists of three representatives of each of the six recognized fraternities of the school, the Phi Sigma Phi, Chi Delta Phi, Chi Epsilon Phi, Pi Kappa Gamma, Chi Beta Kappa, and Zeta Tau Zeta, named in the order of their founding. Its business deals with the pledging and rushing of freshmen promoting competition in both athletic and scholastic fields, and presenting various social functions, the main one being, the colorful Mardi Gras, at which are presented the scholarship and athletic awards. This year a new system of pledging freshmen was inaugurated, which proved beneficial to both the fraternities and pledges. This system consists of having the bid made upon a standard form drawn up by the council, and presented to the prospective pledge, who returns the bid of the fraternity he has chosen, signed by himself- This prevents a frosh having pins of two fraternities, as a pin is received only when a bid is signed and returned. All of the bids are given out by the council at the same time assuring equal chance and fair play. During the year of 1932-33, the aim of the council was closely adhered to, thereby strengthening the spirit of brotherhood throughout the Institute as well as within the fraternities. M I K I N Norton Gard ner Gurnee Atwell Cashm Hunt Hooper Mansfield INTER-SORORITY COUNCIL The Inter-Sorority Council was organized in 1920 for the purpose of uniting the sororities of Mechanics Institute. The council consists of two representatives from each of the four sororities, one representative from the faculty and four faculty advisers. The aim of the organ- ization is to guide the sororities in matters of mutual interest and to establish rules and regulations regarding rushing. Because the council is one of the strongest and most enduring of the women's organizations at Mechanics Institute, it promotes and maintains the spirit of friendship and fair play that has long been prevalent among the sororities of the Institute. This year, the council sponsored two informal receptions in order to meet the schedule of the co-operative students. This arrangement proved to be satisfac- tory because it gave additional opportunity to meet and get acquainted with the Freshmen girls. The Mastercraft Company has presented the council with a silver cup which will be awarded to the sorority attaining the highest scholastic standing for the year. The sorority winning the trophy for three consecutive years, shall be in full possession of the cup. The meetings for the rest of the year are being held for the purpose of revising and amending the constitution so that the council will be able to meet the prob- lems arising from changing conditions. The council extends its appreciation to the members of Mechanics Institute sorori- ties for their co-operation in the year of 1932-33, for abiding by the rules set forth in establishing a closer relationship between sorority groups. 74 MECH ANI Jayne Miller Proper Kaegebein Whistler Batzold Reta Hack Ha f keif Wheeler Welch Whipple Cohoon Norton Keating Gurnee G.

The conference at Sea Breeze was the first meeting. There plans were laid for the social calendar of the year. âHarmony was chosen for the theme. At a later date, the plans were presented to the students at an informal party held at the First Presbyterian Church. The next feature was a formal banquet held at Hotel Rochester. Dr. Howard Hansen of the Eastman School of Music was the guest speaker. On both occasions the theme âHarmony was cleverly carried out. Other social activities of the year were: a Christmas Tea, Winter Party, Play Night, and Sunrise Breakfast. The year closed with an All Sports Banquet to which everyone who participated in the activities was invited. This year the association joined the National Amateurs' Athletic Federation women's organization. Its purpose is to bring together all the women's athletic associations who have the same ideas for the betterment of all sports. Through it, ideas are exchanged and the newest regulations pertaining to all athletics are learned. Wakeman Olmslead Cahoon Franklin C.

SOCIAL GROUPS Wilcox Parish Dtx ELECTRICAL STUDENTS ASSOCIATION The Electrical Students Association was founded for the purpose of bringing subjects ordinarily beyond the scope of school work to the students, and giving them details of different topics to secure a better understanding of their work. This draws the students closer together and offers an opportunity of friendships for those having similar interests. Many prominent men have spoken to the association. Among them were H. C. Lincoln, who was at one time president of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers and a member of the Cornell Uni versity Staff; also Dr. C. H. Powers of Clarkson Tech. Other speakers were: officials of the General Railway Signal Co., the New York Central Railroad Co., and the Rochester Telephone Co. Valuable business contacts are made through various speakers the association has had. Bringing these executives to the Institute sells the course to their companies and often provides an indirect means of securing employment for students.

The social program of the year included the Annual Initiation, the Hallowe'en Masquerade, and the Christmas Party. The Semi-Annual Sketching Trips to Powder Mill Park, first started in 1932 were held in September 1932 and May 1933, at which were present the entire student body and faculty of the Art School. These sketching trips, together with the Thursday evening sketch class give the students every opportunity of developing individual technique. These trips are not only a source of inspiration for originality in work but also for furthering associations in groups whose interests are similar. We look forward to the coming year with enthusiasm and know that the activities of the Art League will continue to accomplish the purpose for which it was organized. 84 Crisp Dibble Kobel Miller Caruana Spice Hudson Arneltre ?ubenj Getman Udell Walden Ortheb Kimball FitzGerald Belli Dubois Wheeler Adams Mickey Draper Hart wig Polvino Burse Batzold Hatch Gilbert Lamb Roberts Jones Baburka Palmer SURVEY CLUB MARY MICKEY . .

The fall Get-Acquainted Party' for the new students was in the form of an indoor picnic held in the assembly hall of the Eastman Building. Outdoor games and songs, followed by a picnic lunch, created an informal atmosphere. The girls spread good cheer beyond their own group during the Christmas holidays by filling baskets with food and clothing for poor families in the city. On Valentine's Day, the club had a Heart to Heart party. Games were played and refreshments served in keeping with the day. Originality played an important part in the evening's entertainment. Other meetings were devoted to the study of cultural subjects, such as music, literature, and travel, as well as new developments in the Food Administration field. 85 i RAMIKIN 11 { ------------------1- rainier Hess Hunt Gardiner Dunn Bares Mansfield Linder Ryan Cahill Meeker Halstead THE RETAIL ASSOCIATION AND BULLETIN LOUISE MEEKER......................President STANLEY RYAN , . . .

PAUL BARON . . , President Vice President Vice President Secretary Secretary Treasurer Treasurer Librarian Librarian The Glee Club represents one of the few organizations in school which is open to everyone. Until three years ago, the Glee Club operated as two separate units, one for men and the other for women. Since the groups have been com- bined the work has been carried on much more effectively and the members have maintained great interest. After the present group was organized, a new director was secured. Mr. Casad, besides being a very able director, provides a certain amount of entertainment which helps keep interest at its height. The selections chosen by Mr. Casad for this year's concert were of varying moods. When A Maid Comes Knocking At Your Heart, Will You Remember Me ' Scandalize My Name ' and several others, were among the popular favorites. The mixed octet sang Listen to the Lambs very effectively. This number perhaps aroused as much enthusiasm as last year's Goin' Home 1 The annual concert was held at the First Presbyterian Church on February 21, and was followed by a dance in the Eastman Building. A large number attended and the evening was voted a success. For the remainder of the year the Tuesday night meetings were spent in singing the favorite songs of the group. 88 GLEE CLUB Much of the success of this year's Glee Club can be attributed to the unflinching loyalty and tireless efforts of the officers of the Club and the exceptional work of the soloists. To that outstanding soloist, Ronald Batson, goes much of our praise. His excellent rendition of Clarke's Blind Ploughman was a hit of the Annual Concert. His singing at several meetings of the Electrical Students Association and of the Builders Association won him the plaudits of those groups. His deep bass voice, which was so valuable in the chorus, won him a place on the Special Chorus, Handicapped at the outset by the failure of one of its officers returning to school, the Glee Club Officers were amply augmented by the addition of Martha Udell to the staff. Her ready solution of many of our problems and her unceasing work helped smooth the rough spots. Norman Wilcox, President, provided that rare quality of leadership which enabled the Glee Club to carry on so successfully. His decisive actions increased the confidence and faith of the members in their club. At a time when the handling of finances was especially difficult, Treasurer Alta Frentz showed his skill in keeping the club financially stable. The Glee Club has made progress this year; the kind of progress that will promote permanent interest at Mechanics Institute and win additional praise for the school. Sincere appreciation is extended to Miss Cunningham, the new Faculty Advisor whose cooperation and leadership are responsible to a large extent for the achievements of the 1932-33 Glee Club; and to Mr. Barton whose experience and interest were a valuable resource. m AMiKIN _______________L GLEE CLUB Blakely Ortheb Sadlon Jones V atton WAcox Battey A ustin Burse Hazard Welch Schoff Andrei Maxwell Jarantelli Brinkerhoff Dentler Stillwell Ridyard Miller DeBarbara Knowles Franklin VanArsdale I.

Estes R, Estes Morecock Mills Litke Vogtli Wilcox Wolf Henderson Smith Camego Brucker THE BAND At the athletic events in the past years, we have felt that something was lacking. This year, just before the athletic season began, a band was organized in an attempt to fill this void. Mr. Morecock offered his services as faculty advisor and member of the clarinet section. Those who were musically inclined gave their whole-hearted support. Mr. Tuites made possible the purchase of music by donating half of the money allotted to him for baseball equipment. With Harold Estes' able leadership and the loyal cooperation of Mr. Morecock and the rest of the members, the organiza- tion made rapid progress in the short time available before the first home event. Instead of that tiresome interval between games, each part of the athletic pro- gram is now linked together by short periods of band music. We hope that, in the coming years, this organization will receive the cooperation of the entire student body, particularly those who have band instruments or can play them. This cooperation will make the band even more successful than it was this year. 92 MENS ATHLETICS R A M I K I N Warren C. Davis Mark Ellington Sherman Hagberg Frosh Coach Coach Faculty Manager 1932-1933 WRESTLING Acquaintance and good fellowship with students and coaches from six to eight collegiate institutions from the East and Middle West each year are among the advantages that wrestling has brought to Mechanics Institute during recent years. Although competition is with schools holding their athletes a year longer than Mechanics, the spirit of M. I. men and the coaching system used by Coaches Ellingson and Davis have enabled the Institute team to maintain a strong lead in the winning and total scoring columns. First class mat and ring facilities tend to counterbalance the handicap of heavy losses through graduation at the end of two years of competition above the freshman class. Sherman Hagberg, Supervisor of Athletics, maintains a strong annual schedule, bringing to Rochester this year four college teams from the Middle West and two from New York State. The student manager for the 1932-33 wrestling season was Charles Schwader whose interest and dependability was one of the deciding factors in the team's success. A vote of thanks is extended to Schwader for his services throughout the season. 04 VARSITY SCORES Mechanics Institute . ... 23 Alfred University . 9 Mechanics Institute . ... 22 Case . 8 Mechanics Institute . ... 38 Fenn College . 0 Mechanics Institute . ... 11 Syracuse University . . 21 Mechanics Institute . ... 15 University of Chicago . 21 Mechanics Institute . ... 0 Kent State . 22 117 81 FROSH SCORES Frosh ... 16 Monroe Y . . 18 Frosh ... 26 Turn Verein . . 8 Frosh . . . 6J Ithaca Y ... . âą 29M Frosh ... 28 Maplewood Y . . 6 Frosh . ... 21M Turn Verein . â 10 H Frosh ... 23 Alfred Frosh . . 11 Frosh ... 19 Oswego Eagles . . 11 Frosh ... 12H Monroe Y . ... â ISM Frosh ... 18 West High . 12 Frosh . . . 16 Syracuse Frosh . 14 186M 134M 05 R A M I K I N 7 To berf Randall Serai me Casey Sch wader Becker Parmalee VARSITY WRESTLING TEAM Faced by the fact that five of the eight first team men and five reserves were lost to the squad by graduation last June, the Institute Wrestling Team started this year's schedule of six meets with colleges, winning three straight by large scores and then losing to Syracuse University and the University of Chicago by scores so close that in each a change of one of the eight bouts would have meant a tie score or a victory. With the final meet, the usual season record of more points won than lost remains unbroken. Meets and scores for the first five sixths of the season are as followsâMechanics 23, Alfred University 9; Mechanics 22, Case School of Applied Science 8; Mechanics 38, Fenn College 0; Mechanics 11, Syracuse University 21; Me- chanics 15, University of Chicago 21. Total points score by Mechanics grap- plers to date 109; points scored by opponents 59. Becker heads the scoring list with five straight falls. Other members of the first string who have competed for the Institute this season are Clark and Polito, 118-lb. class; Serafine, 126; Tolbert 145; Randall and Parmalee, 155; Parmalee and Campbell, 165; Alexander and Campbell, 175; and Casey, heavy-weight. The loss of Randall in midseason was the severest blow to the prospects of the team that the Institute has suffered during the year. Prospects are bright for having back for a second year of competition with higher institutions next year five of this year's first string men. This list will be supple- mented by material from one of the best Frosh aggregations that the Institute has had since wrestling was adopted as one of its two major sports. 90 RESERVE WRESTLING TEAM INSTITUTE Potter Veley Brodie Clark Heaton Wlard Gilmore Moyer Alexander FROSH WRESTLING TEAM Van Stetnburgh French Evert Ziober Morgan Millard Austin Weaver Teague !)7 BASKET-BALL Playing the stiffest schedule any Mechanics Institute team has faced in the last decade, the Varsity Basket Ball Team lost more games than it won. With only two veterans back Coach Pete McKay had to develop a team from a squad of green underclassmen. However, with a year's experience behind it, prospects are bright for a very successful season next year. Hoefler and Sitterlee, co-captains, were the two veterans around whom Coach McKay built his team. They proved the mainstays of the Varsity and helped develop the squad into a powerful scoring machine. There were two newcomers to the Varsity schedule, the Albany School of Phar- macy and St. Lawrence University. These two added color to the tough schedule which included teams such as Canisus College, Buffalo State Teachers College, and Oswego Normal. The highlight of the season was the game with St. Lawrence University. This contest proved a real thriller, and was finally won by St. Lawrence in the closing minute of play. At the annual basket ball awards, Hoefler and Sitterlee were given gold basket balls for playing two years with the Varsity. 98 BASKET BALL SCORES FROSH Mechanics Institute .... 37 Geneseo Normal .... 32 Mechanics Institute . . . .27 Lima....................15 Mechanics Institute . . . .31 Buffalo State College ... 30 Mechanics Institute .... 20 Lima....................44 Mechanics Institute . 19 Canisus College .... 33 Mechanics Institute .... 36 School of Commerce ... 37 Mechanics Institute .... 32 School of Commerce ... 46 Mechanics Institute .... 34 Ithaca College..........44 Totals................. 235 Totals..................282 Mechanics Won 2âLost 6 INDIVIDUAL SCORES FROSH Ackroyd......................45 Dwyer....................6 Kunes........................45 Kilgress.................5 Log win......................44 Fingland.................2 Zydel........................39 Hannon...................2 Zornow . 35 Bailey...................0 Ocorr........................12 Whitmore.................0 Kaufman................... 0 99 BIEGLERâThe blond boy from Hilton who made a good showing on last year's Frosh team is doing mighty well on the Varsity this year. He is always in good humor and helps to keep the morale of the team up at the time it is most needed. FINGLANDââStub, the smallest and fastest man on the team. A new man to the school and team. A hard fighter and good natured, We expect him back next year and then watch him stepâdynamite comes in small packages. HOEFLERâ Hoef is a local boy who has made good on the team. His fighting spirit has been shown many a time. He is deserving of the posi- tion he holds as co-captain. His successor will find it hard to out-step him. OCORRâ Mike, The Pittsford playboy, has shown real ability on the floor and will bear watch- ing the next two years. Mike has had to double up on some of the games so far this season but has shown that he can and is willing to do it. OLSENâOllie, a new member to the Varsity team but played for M.L last year with the Reserves. He is very quiet and reserved but is there when needed. He is expected back next year so good luck to you, Ollie. 100 MECHANIC ROYâJOHN HANK, the long, lanky boy from Elmira Heights. As a center he can not be out- jumped. He always has a smile even when the going is rough. We will all be glad to see him back next year. Best of luck, Hank. SITTERLEEâCo-captain and letter man of last year. He has shown his ability to judge distances on more than one occasion. We wonder why he always seeks a phone booth when we stop in Syracuse? Marty will help make next year's team better. TENNEYâ Tenney is known for his dead eye and ability at handling the ball; also, his ability at dropping the ball through the net still shows from last year on the Reserve team. He is a good for- ward and his position will be hard to fill next year. TERBUSKAâ Pete, as he is called by his friends, was a new comer this year. This was his first year in active competition on any basketball team. His height and natural ability have been a great asset to the team. Best of luck for the two forthcoming years. 101 FRESHMAN BASKET BALL TEAM The Freshman Basket Ball Team, off to a good start with victories in its first two games, ran into more difficult opposition as the season progressed, finishing with two wins against six defeats. Several of the losses were by very close margins, two being by but one point. Captain Zornow was the spark plug of the team, being a good leader as well as a consistent player. Ackroyd and Kunes shared scoring honors for the year with 45 points each, followed closely by Logwin with 44 points. Johnny Zydel played a stellar floor game, breaking up more than one rally of the opposition. Ackroyd, a wrestler turned basketeer, besides sharing the scoring honors, was the outstanding performer. His speed and all-around basket ball ability make him an excellent varsity prospect. 102 MECHANIC Sitl Veley Clark Blodgett Gonyo Briber CHI BETA KAPPA BASKETBALL TEAM Forwards Centers Guards CLARK GONYO SILL CORAL RANDALL BIEBER BECKER ZYNE The Chi Beta Kappa team enjoyed a most successful year. The team was led by Captain Fred Clark and managed by Fred Bieber. The Chi Bets' were runner up in the Inter-Fraternal League and lost to the powerful Chi Epsilon Phi team at the Mardi Gras. The Chi Bets' will have the same team next year and a banner year is expected. A well-balanced team will be developed to play havoc in fraterntiy basketball and to appear again at the Mardi Gras for the final play-off. With interest ability and good sportsmanship as guide- lines, the team will prove a credit to their fraternity and worthy of loyal support. 103 R A M i K I N Viltani Ebert Kaufman Kelly Ambusta Fields CHI EPSILON PHI BASKETBALL TEAM Forwards Centers Guards AMBUSKE KELLY KAUFMAN FIELD EBERT VILLANI SCHAFT CAMPBELL The 1933 Inter-Fraternal sport season has proven successful for Chi Epsilon Phi's basketball team. The team went through the entire season undefeated. Keen compe- tition prevailed throughout. Sportsmanship and spirit of the games with the rival teams were commendable. The climax of the season was the play-off at the Mardi Gras with the Chi Beta Kappa's for the Inter-Fraternal Council's trophy. The Chi Ep's having won the game were awarded the trophy and will have it in their possession for the coming year. It is hoped that it may be kept in the fraternity permanently. 104 MECHANICS PHI SIGMA PHI BASKETBALL TEAM Forwards Centers Guards WINEGARD DEWEY PARRISH BUTTERFIELD BARRON BATTY DIX HOPKINS Phi Sigma Phi Basketball team, though a hard fighting team had an unsuccessful basketball season, finishing fourth in the Inter-Fra- ternal League. During the early part of the season the captain, Dewey, received an injury which forced him out for the remainder of the season. Later the team lost one of the guards, Parrish. These two first string men were replaced with pledges. In spite of the bad luck Phi Sigma Phi fought a determined battle. Three games were lost by but one or two points. In the final game the team won by a score of 10 to 8. This final effort was too late to pull the team from its last place position. The pledges have made a good showing which promises a strong 1933-34 team. 10.5 RAMIKIN Smith FrenU Penner P. Estes Pe mann Wrfcox PI KAPPA GAMMA BASKETBALL TEAM Forwards Centers Guards WILCOX REIMAN ESTES SMITH CASEY FRENTZ MORRISON PENNER Pi Kappa Gamma, with a well-balanced team, finished third in the Inter-Fraternal League race. The strength of the ,vPi Kaps is not entirely indicated by the league standing, however, since several of the games were lost by very close margins. The team was handicapped throughout the season because of lack of practice and it was unable to participate in the Mardi Gras for that reason. Even though several men will be lost through graduation, prospects for a good team next year are unusually bright since three veterans will be back to form a strong nucleus. 10(i WOMENS ATHLETICS R A M 1 K I N GIRLS' ACTIVITIES ASSOCIATION By twenty thorps, a little town. And half a hundred bridges. Till last by Philips farm I flow To join the brimming river, For men may come and men may go But I go on forever I come from haunts of coot and hern I make a sudden sally, And sparkle out among the fern To bicker down a valley. By thirty hills I hurry down, Or slip between the ridges, The Girls' Athletic Association was founded in 1922 to fill a long felt need not only for participation in sports but for growth in mind and body. G. A. A. is now known as the Girls' Activities Association because its scope is not restricted entirely to athletic interests. Last year, G. A. A. joined the women's division of the National Amateur Athletic federation which connects this organization with the latest developments in amateur sports. In early November, the Girls' Activities Association Council held its first meeting on the shores of Lake Ontario to make plans lor the coming year. This meeting was held in a tent because frequent showers prevented outdoor activity. When the group broke up and started back toward Rochester, a rainbow appeared making a beautiful climax to the occasion. BADMINTON AND TENNIS Badmintonâadded as another sport this year, girls. Somewhat like tennis only played with shuttlecocks and smaller racquets with longer handles. A net is used in the game, too. And what do you think? The gym was even marked off for the game. Awfully interestingâthat gym. Awfully in- terestingâthat game of Badmin- ton, too. Tennis, way down at the end of the alphabet, isn't it? Even so, it is one of the sports that seems to takeâ and how! This game started in the spring, first in the indoor courts which are situated in the gym and then as the weather cleaved (thank goodness for it) on the courts in the parks. Tennis has really proved to be a very interesting game which has certainly grown in popularity this year at school. 108 i T MECHANICS R 5 BASKETBALL That comedian Zasu Pitts would exclaim, Oh my, and our exclamation probably wouldn't be fit to print so we're using Zasu's. Yes, it's true, we're on our old Mechanics Institute court and the Brick Church Institute court, too. What are we doing? Watching the basketeers of G. A. A. fumble or hold that ball. From January through March the G. A. A. basketeers met at Brick Church In- stitute every Thursday night and on the M. I. court every Tuesday afternoon after school to practice up for the big games which were held with the various hospitals, Y.W.C.A's, as well as one practice game with the University of Rochester. Inter-class games were also played, the Fresh- men being victorious over the Upperclassmen more than once. Usually poor Froshâthis time poor Upperclassmen. BOWLING You pick up a ballâsteady your eye on the right pin or between the right pinsâ stand in positionâgive a guick but steady right arm swingâaim your thumb at the pin or pins you steadied your eye uponâ release the ball and before you can say Jack Robinson you hear the clash between the ball and pin. When you look again, no pins are in sight. You jumpfor glee! Sometimes you could tear your hair out but not this timeâ for you have made a strikeânot a spareâbut a strike! Are you happy? I'll say! Then you try to make another strikeâand what happens? Well, that's one of the times you want to tear your hair out. Every Thursday night since the latter part of November, you have gone to Brick Church In- stitute to bowl from 7:30 to 9:15 o'clock. Al- though you didn't make such a hot score when you first began that great sport of the Middle Ages, you have through practice, attained a score higher than you ever expected. The knack of it comes on you rather suddenly. If you didn't obtain such a high score and if you didn't play at all last year you just try next year and watch your technique. You'll be surprised. Don't give up the bowling! 109 RAMIKIN GOLF Golf this year has seemed to create re- markable enthusiasm here at Mechanics Institute. The girls have shown keen interest throughout the whole year. It must be some game! In the early fall, a great number of girls without any former training, whatsoever, started this great out- door sport under the tutelage of a profes- sional, Mr. Kay Feller. They continued again in the spring and when the first flowers were nodding their gay little heads about, the G. A. A. golfers went out on one of the city courses and began to drive, putter and swing their arms about. Oh, this spring weather. What effect it has on golfers!

G. A. A. members and more G. A. A. members, from Freshmen to Seniors, taking ten lessons at the exceptional rate which G. A. A. offers to its members. Riding began in late October, continued through the fall and earlier winter months, and then began again in the spring. In that season of seasons, if the weather permitted, beginners and advanced horsemen rode out- of-doors. Horseback riding is the sport of sports. The clickety-clack of the horses hoofs on little stonesâthe slapping and flapping of the leatherâand the little snorts of the horses, all add to the real enjoyment of the sport. SWIMMING This year, swimming was held, as every other year, at the Brick Church Institute across from Rochester's main post officeâas if that had anything to do with swimming. It doesn't be assured, but it rather helps when it comes to directions. Thursday evenings from 7:30 to 9:00 beginners, advanced swimmers, divers, life savers, examiners (and what have you) all swish-swash their arms and legs in the pool under the able direction of Miss Proper, swimming director, and Miss Cunningham, diving instructor. Everyone enjoys themselves immensely while striking back and forth from one end of the pool to the other, standing on the spring board and diving into the chlorine with a little water added to dilute the mixture. After two hours of healthful exercising in the pool and a half hour under the showers, the time is almost half past nine, so, everybody goes home. 111 The school year 1933 finds athletics at Mechanics Institute reaching a new high level. In a year when most schools are forced to curtail extensively their ath- letic programs, it is especially note- worthy that Mechanics was able to broaden the scope of athletic activity. One of the most heartening features of this year's athletics was the large num- ber of men and women students partici- pating in the various branches of sport. The principal reasons on which an ex- tensive athletic program can be justified is that it affords an opportunity for the greatest number of students to partici- pate. The large squads out for the various teams showed exclusively that the athletic program is justified. The keen competition, especially in Basket Ball and Wrestling, where sev- eral newcomers to M. L schedules were met, aroused the student body to a new pitch of school spirit. The Wrestling and Basket Ball teams were given the enthusiastic support they well deserved for their great efforts against teams sup- posedly above their class.

The activities of the fraternity for the past year have been limited due to the present economic conditions. Every school month this year the fraternity has held a smoker for the members, which has more than met their idea of a good time. The annual fall dance held in Bevier Hall was very successful and well attended. On election night the rush party was held in the General Coffee Shop. Several alumni returned for the occasion. We regret the loss of our six members who are graduating this year and we wish them every success for the future. 11,5 RAMIKIN t Coeles CHI EPSILON PHI FRATERNITY RALPH H, BRADEN WILLIAM R.

EPSILON PHI FRATERNITY Chi Epsilon Phi was organized in 1921 admitting only Electrical and Chemical students. In 1924 the Constitution was so amended that the members could be chosen from students in either the Industrial or Art courses The social events of this year were inaugurated with the annual Joe College Hop which proved to be one of the most successful dances of the year. The fraternity Push Party was held at the Home Dairy Lunch and well attended by rushees, brothers and alumni. The pledges were informally initiated at Cones us Lake where traditional initiation customs prevailed throughout the week end With a very successful basket ball season, a year of outstanding social events and scholastic achievements, Chi Epsilon Phi has maintained the aim and purpose of the fraternity, namelyâto bind in brotherly order men of the Institute, to promote and support Institute activities, and to establish and maintain high scholastic standing. 117 WALTER CRILEY SHERMAN HAGBERG WESLEY BILLS ROBERT BUTTERFIELD HARRY CARLSON RALPH DEWEY PAUL BARON ROBERT BATTY ROBERT DIMPFL FRANKLIN EVERT PHI SIGMA PHI FRATERNITY FRATRES HONORARI ALFRED JOHNS EARL C.

In the thirty-two years of its existence the brotherhood of Phi Sigma Phi has been unceasingly active in the fulfillment of that pledge. The program of social events for the present year, although somewhat restricted in view of present economic conditions, has been gratifyingly successful. The initial function, a dance in Bevier Hall on October 15th, received favorable comment from all those in attendance. The annual Rush Banquet was held at the Buckingham Club, with thirty-five Frosh present as guests. Plans are at present under formulation for the annual Spring Party and invitation dance. The fraternity has been privileged this year to extend the hand of brotherhood to ten new members, who were inducted at a formal ritual and banguet at the Buckingham Club on December 22, 1932. On the eve of commencement Phi Sigma Phi extends its heartiest congratula- tions to ten graduating brothers. I in + PI KAPPA GAMMA FRATERNITY FRATRES HONORARI EDWARD H. LANG DONALD CASEY HAROLD W.

After obtaining the recognition of the Administration and Inter-Fraternal Council, the fraternity faced the tasks that are peculiar to an infant organization. The fraternity was organized with four purposes in mind: to offer the students of Mechanics Institute a medium for fraternal relations; to accomplish this end with a minimum of expense; to establish and maintain a high scholastic standard; and to extend the fraternity to other schools of the same type as Mechanics Institute. Before the end of the year a number of dinner meetings had united the group into a really fraternal association and had laid a foundation upon which to build. The first three objectives have been gained and the fourth is a goal for the future. The scholastic standing is well above the average as is proven by Pi Kappa Gamma having received the scholastic trophy for the year 1931-32. Even though Pi Kappa Gamma is one of the youngest fraternities, it has come to be respected for its high scholastic standing. Edward H. Lang, faculty member of Pi Kappa Gamma, is appreciated for the help and counsel which he has given the fraternity. Pi Kappa Gamma wishes to congratulate its eight graduating members and to extend to them most sincere good wishes for the future. May Pi Kappa Gamma forever continue to uphold the true purposes for which it was founded. 121 RAMIKIN ZETA TAU ZETA FRATERNITY Fratres Honorari DONALD MITCHELL Fratres 1933 STACY M.

The fraternity was for two years under the jurisdiction of the Y.M.C.A. although its members were Mechanics Institute students. In the fall of 1931 the fraternity decided that it would be more convenient to be a school fraternity at the Institute and application was made for entrance. When the student council considered the application it was found advisable by the council that all affiliation be broken with the Y.M.C.A. and the name of the organization changed. Thus in January 1932 after being recognized by the student council and later the Interfraternal Council, a new fraternity was born, named the Zeta Tau Zeta. All through the struggle the members of Zeta Tau Zeta have kept foremost in their minds the aims of the fraternity as originally drafted; to cultivate the thought of school spirit and aim to improve morally, socially, educationally and athletically. Zeta Tau Zeta now enters its second year as a Mechanics Institute fraternity and presents itself for cooperation in all of the activities of Mechanics Institute. If you want Mosta of the besta for the leasta ' just drop in on a Mechanics' Mardi Gras. Youse sir, ask those who went to one at the Central Y. M. C. A. on January twenty-eighth. There was a bit of a basket- ball game, Chi Epsilon Phi vs. Chi Beta Kappa, after which Shorty Powers stepped forward with broken arches, a backache, a toothache and presented the Chi Epsilon Phi with the trophy. Well done, my lads! There was a queen at that Mardi Gras, so help me! Miss Louise Sanders loaned her utilities to the occa- sion by popular request and received a bit of a bou- quet from the old maestro of ceremonies. Speech! Speech! Walter Powers foreclosed again on the vocals and presented the president of Phi Sigma Phi with a loving cup because of that fraternities' out- standing scholarship record. Youse sir! The time then came to lend thine ears to the Moonlight Sere- nades and their selection of dance tunes. 'Twas then, au revoir, a bon cheerio, a bit of tweet tweet and pleasant dreams.

The ideals of the sorority are to live truly, play fairly, extend a warm friendship to the members and to the girls in the school, and to maintain a high scholastic standing. In this connection each year keys are given to six girls, who have maintained high scholastic standing, and who have done outstanding work in the sorority activities. This year we welcomed into our midst two new honorary members, Miss Eleanor Randall and Mrs. Alvin K. Luckett. Social activities for the year included a Harvest Dance which was held in Bevier. 'The Barn decorated with cornstalks and Jack O'Lanterns was inhabited by several temperamental scarecrows. In the stall the guests obtained cider and doughnuts while in the hay mow the orchestra was playing. A novel rush party was held at Holthus'. The party was in the form of a Broad- casting Station and the program was carried out by the members of the sorority. Mr. Bond of the Art School favored with a most dramatic reading which proved the crowning event of the evening. A Christmas Party was held at the home of Betty Norton and here Santa was good to all but Betty, for the evidences of the candy pull were stickily obvious. The formal pledge party was held at the University Club where Miss Lois Terk welcomed the new pledges. The formal initiation was held in March.

Its aim is to establish firm friendships, promote high ideals and scholastic standing in both the sorority and school. This year the sorority opened its social events with an informal 'âPresidential Hop. The evening was a jolly one and enjoyed by all present. Part of the success was due to the creditable impersonation of President Hoover, Governor Roosevelt, and the Forgotten Man by three members of the faculty. The next important event of the year was the Rush Party. It was a Deep Sea Party held at Craig Hill. The deep sea idea was carried throughout, even to a submarine in the form of a bus which brought the rushees to and from Moby Dick's habitat. No divers suits or fishing poles were necessary to join in the activities and fun of the deep seas that evening. Next came the formal pledge dinner which was held at the roof garden of the Sagamore Hotel in honor of the nine new members. After a leisurely and jovial time at the dinner, the sorority in a group attended the first basket ball game and wrestling match of the season. The sorority completed plans for a party in honor of the new sorores. It was held at the home of two of the honorary members, Mr. and Mrs. Edward H. Lang. At this time the formal initiation took place. Then games, dancing and refreshments were enjoyed. The final event of the year was a houseparty. This week-end of close companion- ship made even more firm the bond of friendship among the members of the group. The sorority was very happy to welcome Mrs. William A. Clark as an honorary member.

The purpose was to further the spirit of friendship and unity between the Schools of Applied Art and Horne Economics and to encourage the highest ideals in standards and scholarship. At present this sorority consists of nineteen active members, six honorary mem- bers and ten active alumni. The social year was opened in November by an Eleventh Hour Dance in Bevier Building. Its success is attributed to Mr. Bond, whose kind assistance proved extremely valuable. Following this the first Rush Party was held at Ye Olde House and was portrayed by the March of the Scotties ' The rush season was closed by a Formal Pledge Dinner at The Oak Hill Country Club. The Closed Formal Dance took place in May and this ended the social season for Phi Upsilon Phi. The Freshmen and Juniors wish to take this opportunity to thank the Seniors for their guidance and helpfulness in leading Phi Upsilon Phi thru another success- ful year, and it is their hope they will meet with all possible success in the future. In behalf of the sorority we wish to thank the active alumnae for their cooperation and goodwill. 131 SIGMA KAPPA DELTA SORORITY HONORARY MEMBERS MISS HAZEL BURKEY MISS EDWINA HOGADONE MR, BYRON CULVER MISS MARY HAVENS MISS RUTH CUNNINGHAM MISS GERTRUDE SYKES SORORES 1933 DORIS ADAMS HELEN ATWELL JEAN AUSTIN JANE BATES ELLEN BRONSON CELIA DURKEE NEOLA GREENE MARY LEACH MARY MICKEY JANE MOYES ELIZABETH MUNSON DOROTHY WALLS SORORES 1934 ELIZABETH CAHILL HELEN LAMB MARY MARGARET LINDER MARGARET MANSFIELD MARY MEYERS ELEANOR MOODY MADGE PEREIRA JANET SHELTERS ELIZABETH SKUSE POLLY UNGER PATRICIA WHITE JEAN WOODBURY RUTH AUSTIN BARBARA BRINKERHOFF MARION HESS SORORES 1935 ELAINE HUDSON GERALDINE LE WALTER HARRIET MILLER ALBERTA WIGNALL LOIS YAUCHZI MECHANICS 4 3!

At present the sorority has twenty-eight members, six honorary members and an Alumnae Association. Miss Hazel Burkey, who has been closely associated with this organization, was appointed faculty advisor. Miss Ruth Cunningham has been elected as an honorary member. Activities for the year were opened by the active chapter with a recognition ceremony in which the members of the alumnae association, who attained honor and gave outstanding services to the organization, were presented with recogni- tion pins. These pins were given by Miss Gertrude H. Sykes, former advisor of the sorority and presented by the president of the sorority. The Alumnae Association opened the social program with a Formal Sunday- Afternoon Tea held in Bevier Living Room. Faculty members of Mechanics In- stitute, members of the active chapter and friends were guests at the tea. At Christmas time the sorority sent baskets of food and articles of clothing to the needy. The Sigma Kappa Delta Rush party was an indoor circus with side shows, bright lights, gay colored balloons, clowns, and a ring performance; after which the rushees and members were invited to a reception given by the Alumnae Associa' tion at the home of Miss Anna Ballarian. The Rushing season was closed with a formal dinner party at the Brook-Lea Country Club. The annual houseparty held early in June was a fitting climax to a successful and happy year. 133 Whether or not it is fashionable to arrive late at teas or receptions makes absolutely no difference to the M. I. freshman girls. Promptly at 7:30 on the fateful eve of the Inter-Sorority Reception finds Bevier Hall thronged with fluttering wide-eyed girls arrayed in the loveliest of frocksâmaking their best appearance and appearing very chipper. They trip back and forth voicing little nothings, arrange and re-3rrange that stray lock, pat a bit of powder on a would-be shiny nose until seven thirty-one or two when the re- ception committee of advisors and sorority presidents are ready to receive them. Then commences that long journey down a receiving line of M, I. sorority girls. Trembling hands are passed from one to an- other, names spoken so quickly that one scarcely hears and seldom remembers them until at length, as Tuku Matsuoka once said with a sweeping gesture, It seems like all one face. Finally all introductions are over and the sorority sisters unbend. Graciously they escort the new girls to be served with tea and fancy tea cakes from a table, radiant with silver, crystal, and candle light. In an adjoining room a lively orchestra is playing popular song hits for those who enjoy dancing. As a lasting impression one would say, the Inter-Sorority Reception is an interest- ing and delightful occasion. RAYNVON t C AR.L5QH MIS-TRAITED AT M. f. BY (A FUGITIVE FROM THE âCHART GANG) For the enlightenment of the uninitiate, may we explain that here at Mechanics there is kept, in addition to the customary scholastic, absence and tardiness records, a chart indicating the individual traits of character of each student. For the breadth of scope, minuteness and meticulousness of detail and revealing nature of the data, these Trait Record Sheets, as they are called, would make Ed Burke's Bertillon records at Rochester Police Headquarters look like the unin- telligible scribblings on the wall of a telephone booth The moment a freshman enters the Institute, the ponderous machinery of the 'system starts to grind He is photographed, finger-printed and measured. The blood-hounds are brought in to make a mental note of his scent. His head is then shaved and he is given a uniform. He exchanges his name for a number. (Until recent years, it was customary to chain the various groups together as they passed from one class-room to another. Upon their arrival at their destination, this chain was fastened to an iron ring at the end of each row of desks and not removed until the bell announcing the end of the period was sounded. Con- certed agitation on the part of various humane societies has served to bring about the abolition of this practice, and now the armed guards only are relied upon to prevent a break. ) A Trait Record Sheet bearing the student's name is next started. His case history is entered. His distinguishing scars, laundry marks, driving license, economic and gastronomies condition, articulation, and respiration, together with all in- formation obtainable through miscroscopic, fluoroscopic, co-ordination, intel- ligence, sanity and physical tests are recorded on the chart. From that hour, he ceases to have a private life. His innermost thoughts are no longer his own. His naked soul lies raw and quivering under the relentless white light of the record. The long vigil begins. The members of the faculty, through their operatives, mark his every move. From the first tinkle of the alarm in the morning to the last agonized facial contortion of the hunted creature as he tosses on his pillow, praying for sleep, his every thought, word and deed is set down as in the book of judgment. The proportions to which this espionage system has grown and the thoroughness with which it has been developed are amazing. (It is said that a former Intelligence Department attach of the British War Office is technical advisor to the staff.) Certainly, the drawn and peaked faces, the restless eyes and alert, tense attitude of the students are mute testimony to its effectiveness. No student would think of speaking to another without first looking under chairs and beds and behind draperies and pictures for hidden dicta- phones, and cameras. To one whose memory goes back to the days when the campus was a gay place, echoing to the shouts and laughter of care-free boys and girls, it is sad indeed to observe the workings of this machine. What the instructors fail to gather through sleuthing, they obtain by gaining the confidence of the victim. The feigned solicitude, the simulated interest in his social affairs are but ruses, under cover of which they reach their talons into the remotest corners of his heart and wrench out its most sacred and cherished secrets. Thus, combining the methods and talents of detective, tabloid reporter, Father-confessor, psycho-analyst and spiritualist medium, do they collect the material for the Trait Record Sheets. (Because of their trait-hunting proclivities, they have earned the honorary title: Traitors. For example; Traitor Horne of the Art School. As you may have guessed, the items on these charts are both complete and varied. Almost anything you would ever want to know about a student, his relatives, friends, enemies, neighbors, ancestry, posterity, likes, dislikes, habits, manners, tastes in laundries, lawyers and lingerie, his diet, his libido or his peristaltic muscle can be found thereon. Does he wear his underthings a second day? Did his Aunt Minnie ever marry that drummer from Syracuse? How much does he still owe on his saxaphone? Where was he on the night of August 14, 1929, and how much did he leave the waiter? When he breaks a shoe-lace, does he replace both or only the broken one? Could you trust him alone on a desert island with your son? Has he learned that just because two drinks make him feel good, eight drinks won't necessarily make him feel four times as good? Consult the record! And finally, what of the future of this new and radical departure in recording this side of the student's development? Do the higher-ups know that the amount of electric light used by the faculty in trying to decide whether to give a student who arrives with a hang-over a G â in Drive or an H -f in Social Qualities would light the city of Walla-Walla for three weeks? It is understood to be the earnest hope of the faculty that within a reasonably short time the system will have reached a state of perfection whereby an in- structor, by carefully analyzing and weighing the records, will so familiarize him- self with the character and personality of his students, that he will be able to size them up at a glance. Standing in the doorway, and greeting each one as he arrives, the instructor of the future will merely note the lift of an eyebrow, the combing of the hair or the inflection of the voice. He can then catalog each student in the area into which he knows his work for the day will fall, and without having to wait to see the work, he can retire to that strange and mysterious place where pixies, goblins and banshees gather at night and instructors hide during class periods.
