When victory comes, the men and women in Coveralls can occupy their rightful place with the men and women in uniform as those who have given their strength and sweat for the cause of democracy. Vocational education is the medium through which millions of these soldiers of the production lines have learned to discipline their minds and hands so that we have mort and better food and our weapons of war are faster, tougher, more maneuverable, and have fire power superior to Axis equipment. Vocational education comprises the teacher, the administration, the coordinators, the janitors as well as the representatives of labor and manage- ment. Whatever of lasting benefit has come through vocational schools in this war is a tribute to these men and women. We here at Tech feel that every technical job we learn to perform with skill, every class we attend which teaches us to think and judge accurately, is contributing to our full development not only as efficient soldiers of a tragic war but as courageous builders of a just peace. Our world looks to us as fighters, more important it entrusts to us the shaping of another world which will be built upon our technical knowledge as workers, upon our civic knowledge as citizens. Tech is important to us now, it will be our guide and strength in the days to come. PAGE 2 pzhnin .-6991: 'll- ...,,.,,s 'ts-rv' 'N' uqgpf -nv ' K. u f.n if .Ze ese are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their countryg but he that stands it now. deserves the love and thanks ol man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered, yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph, What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly, it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods, and it would be strange indeed il so celestial an article as Freedom should not be highly rated. fThomas Painej To those young men and women of Tech who, in this time ol crisis, are giving gallantly and freely ot their lives and spirit we reverently dedicate this book.

Three years of happiness and satisfaction, of trials and tribulations spent at San Antonio Tech are ended. The contributing factors to a Well-rounded course are brought to light as the senior calls to mind the minutest incident-the fearful uncertainty of his sophomore year, the sang-froid and nonchalance of his juniorshipg the lordly emi- nence of his seniority. Now it has come at last-Commencement Night-gala night oi fiery speeches, wild applause, deserving scholarship, happy night oi hearty backslapping, numerous con- gratulations, shiny-eyed classmates clutching well-earned diplo- mas, sober night of regretful goodbyes, sad night of parting handshakes. One of the great days of life - high school graduation! The look back is not so sober as the one ahead, In the future lies a more serious step-one that must be taken cautiously. Like the blind man the senior may not actually see, but he can expect. No matter What he encounters, his character, leadership, service, and scholarship Will follow him.

But whether we meet or whether we part fFor our ways are past our knowingl, A pledge from the heart to its fellow heart On the ways we all are going! Here's luck! For we know not where we are going.

With a steady swing and an open brow We have tramped the ways together, But we're clasping hands at the crossroads now In the Fiend's own night for weather, And whether we bleed or whether we smile In the leagues that lie before us, The ways of life are many a mile, And the dark of Fate is o'er us.

Ably guided by Mrs. Tinnin and Miss Kinslow, they got off to a flying start With a rousing class election. With George Schauer as President, they headed enthusiastically into a successful year by throwing a colossal dance with hay, blue jeans, and pigtails. They trembled through mid-term tests and then began to bustle in prospect of the annual Iunior-Senior Prom. Much organization and scurrying produced the gala event With just the right music, lights, and partners. Then came Com- mencement and madly the luniors decorated that the lordly Seniors might end their Tech career with the proper splendor. Thoughttully they realized that-just one more year-and they, too, would be Seniors. luniors, here's good luck to you in '46. PAGE 48 Achilles, lack Allen Achilles, lohn Henry Ackermann, Frankie E.

A sea of unfamiliar faces met their new Alma Mater and spent most of their first week looking for mythical escalators and elevators. But with them they brought a promising group of leaders and followers. They fell right in step by taking active part in various activities including all school elections. Their own class election was conducted seriously and successfully. They have become a part of Tech through their splendid cooperation. We look to them for our future leaders.

WAS EVER OWN I . 7 ACHIEVED eqJz WITHOUT REWARD ENTHUSIASM Deep in war work are the many shops of Tech, wholeheartedly con- tributing their share to the welfare of this country. Every trained student in a vocational field means a skilled worker for tomorrow. Welders, sheet metal workers, machinists, electricians, auto mechanics, aircraft mechanics, pipe fit- ters, wood workers, power sewing machine operators, and draftsmen are be- ing prepared to take their places in the vocational world, whether it be in es- sential war industries or in a military camp. The training of student abilities and talents is of vital importance in the war program. Because the demand is so great the supply must be efficient and constant. These future citizens learn and apply their studies in a practical method -they become skilled in their chosen shop training and at the same time work part-time in our industries. Both physical and mental proficiency is dis- played. A war-torn world needs and expects men and women who are prepared for their jobs in every aspect. The importance of what Tech shops have done is little compared to what they will do. Let it be said of these shops .... their nation called, and they responded. WHO WILL FOLLOW YOU? This is from an editorial in the Industrial Relations written by one of the country's largest manufacturers. Think it over. Like many of the men who built industrial America, George Eastman's success was in large measure due to his being able to pick men. In the early days of the business, when the number of employees was small, Eastman used to make a point of talking with his workers on every provocation, ask- ing their advice and opinions so that he could better appraise their potential leadership ability. Then as the business grew, he used to insist that his fore- men and supervisors do the same. He wanted his foremen to get close to his men, to go fishing and hunting with them, to visit their homes, and to carefully evaluate them according to company standards of leadership, so that there could always be young men coming along to take over their responsibility of managing his expanding business. Eastman had no patience with a supervisor who did not have at least one man ready to step into the boss' job on short notice. lt was not unusual for him to stop by the desk of a foreman and ask him to point out the man he was training to succeed him. He wanted his foremen to feel that their chance for promotion depended upon their having a 'stand in' trained and ready to take over should opportunity knock. Indeed it was almost a fixed policy with him, in filling the better jobs, to consider first department managers who had proved their executive ability by having developed someone capable of running the department as well, or better, than they were managing it. PAGE 79 l fi rqachiiealuaal fb ' . . . i Mr. Alsup here gives a few pointers to three of his architectural protegees. Architectural Drafting provides the fountain-head of one of the largest fields of construction effort the world has ever known - the Building Trade. The duties of a draftsman are extensive, but he grows into a knowledge of these duties as he gains experience on the job. The prime require- ments for a successful draftsman are intelligence geared to a willing- ness to work at a job, sufficient study to keep up with the constant changes in construction methods, new materials and new ideas. The Architectural Draft- ing course is planned to give the boy the necessary foundation for such things. George Riley struggles with an architectural problem. PAGE 80 l Y E A graduate of this department finds numerous opportunities for employ- ment. Foremost among these is employment in architect's offices. As he gains experience the beginner is promoted to chief draftsman next in responsibility and pay to the architect. Other opportunities are found as draftsmen for lumber companies, for contractors engaged in constructing work, for planing mills, for engineering concerns, for oil and geological companies, and as Civil Service draftsman for the United States Government. An architectural graduate is fitted to begin Work in most of the related building trades. A general view of the morning class as they practice the fundamentals of drafting. P-XGE 81 Halal!! ' ....

The untrained mechanic is being replaced by the skilled Worker who has a fundamental education in auto mechanics obtained through supervised work on an actual job and who has kept up with the latest automotive de- velopments through trade periodicals and technical books. Because of the many technical changes and the newer mechanical methods, the day ot the untrained mechanic is past. Senior Automobile Mechanics go through the process of overhaul- H ing a car. PAGE 82 The Auto Mechanics course, with Mr. Guy Tune as instructor, is produc- ing skilled Workers. Practical experience is gained by actual Work on cars belonging to students and faculty members. This is in addition to the specific training given in body and tender Work, engine repair Work, parts service Work, and shop management. Electrical Work, sheet metal Work, and Welding are now involved in auto mechanics, since the auto mechanic must be able to replace and then test the finished job through the use ot intricate testing apparatus. Some more future mechanics ot America study the fundamentals ot the gasoline engine PAGE. 85 Mill shop students combine patriotism with practical experience. These tables will soon be located in various Red Cross Stations. Always on the job describes the industrial policy of Tech shops, and among the largest ot these is the Cabinet Mill Shop under the sponsorship of Mr. H. C. Schuster. ln the Mill Shop, students learn to set up, maintain, and operate Wood- working machinery, to design, lay out and plan the building of cabinet and mill Work, to construct the articles and finally to put the proper finish on them. This department's policy is to prepare young men for the many occupa- tions found in the modern cabinet manufacturing plant, job shop, or planing mill. Production Work is organized as it Would be in a mill or furniture factory. i Students put their talent to use in removing a physical hazard from the main office. Here you see them putting the finishing touches on a new mail box panel. PAGE 84 1+ 2A L .. A project of the mill shop which has had the support of many Tech Alumni classes is that of making louvres to provide ventilation in the auditorium. Fans were installed in the past years, but they provided no inlet for fresh air. Re- cently fresh air units of the louvres made by the mill shop were installed. These enable spectators at moving pictures to have fresh air and still have all exits open with these light-proof units. Future carpenters and cabinet makers of Tech go about their current duties.

The garden of talent, where the seeds of talent are fertilized with a little ambition and training and grow into money making propositions should be the motto of Mr. lack McGuire's Commercial Art class. Many a boy or a girl who showed talent and ambition in the art field has been graduated from Mr. McGuire's class to turn his abilities into a profitable paying profession. Since, in our changing world, there is a constant demand for new ideas, new methods of presentation, it becomes necessary for commercial artists to act as links between the advertiser and the idea man. Mr. McGuire's Commer- cial Art class is the training field for such intermediaries. Frances Raggio practices sketch- X ing advertising material in prep- l ,mm aration for an advertising career. PAGE 86 l I Students receive expert instruction in advertising layout, designing, illus- trating, lettering, retouching, fashion illustrating, and every other sub-division of the eight art fields. They receive a great deal of practical training during their course of study yet at the same time perform innumerable services for the school. The greater part of the attractive posters for football games, dances, plays, movies, War bond drives are all produced by the Commercial Art department. They do for us a truly professional job. Students exhibit posters While others put the finishing touches on their creations. 3 PAGE R GM ..... l 2 A Cosmetology student plays guinea pig for Mrs. Andrews and helpers while several students watch the operation with apparent interest. There may be some truth in the saying that beauty is only skin deep, certainly the members of Mrs. Lydia Andrews cosmetology class are study- ing and putting their knowledge to practical use in making the skin and beauty of women as deep as is humanly l possible. The three years' intensive course given the girls at Tech meets all the requirements of a solid foundation for cosmetology. ln- struction is so organized that the class dis- cussions, practice work, and training in the school shop afford the girls ample experi- ence and background for future employ- ment. The greater part of their time is de- voted to giving permanents, facials, sham- poos, and manicures. Students put their newly acquired knowledge to practical use on a fellow student. PAGE 88 N lb We WW A ' 44551 Opportunities for the Well-trained cosmetologist are unlimited. Many are in business for themselvesg others are operators in the shops. Although there are many calls from shop owners who demand intelligent girls in various branches of the work, there is also a Wide field tor those students who Wish to become successful demonstrators in cosmetics. The Cosmetology department here at Tech is a thoroughly modern in- stitution, Where every student is given individual attention and careful train- ing in all the branches ot cosmetologyf A A Cosmetologists exchange manicures, While several other students receive a free treatment.

Our electrical course trains young men in the basic operations and practices of the electrical industry and in these characteristics essential for success in the various types of work in this industry. This course includes the necessary practice Work to train students for electrical Wiring, maintenance, repair and installation of equipment, tele- phone work, factory Work, armature Work, novelty machine service, neon sign Work, and numerous other Well paid jobs. Under the able guidance of Mr. Perry and Mr. Brunnemann, students are trained for this work by making soldering irons, transtermers, electric meters, and relays. They receive training in the use of lathes, ceil winders, drill presses, and other machines commonly found in electrical repair shops. Electrical courses in Tech are designed to fit the needs of students who may be interested in electricity from any of these standpoints. Different in- terests and objectives demand different content and emphasis. To meet these differing needs our school has an excellently organized course in electricity. PXFI Nl L After completing an electrical training course, a student Who takes a job in the field of electricity must, in rnost cases, serve an apprenticeship following definite rules and regulations laid down for this type of Work. Upon com- pletion of his apprenticeship the worker becomes a journeyman and is licensed to do any job in his field. Tech's future electricians look on While their instructor adjusts a sluggish generator. PAGE 91 ii fiU8 f25a'... Mr. McComb explains the details of a blueprint to three interested pupils. lf drafting is called the universal language because it is a graphic method of expression then Mr. McComb's students are becoming accom- plished linguists. Certainly the National Defense Program has Stimulated the need for technically trained draftsmen. Since this type of Work will be needed as long as We have any form of manufacturing, Tech is doing its share to supply the demand. These future draftsmen apply their talent to a difficult drafting prob- l lem, IXKIQ The Engineering Drafting student can successfully fit into almost any field of technical drawing. ln most cases, however, his promotion and ad- vancement depend directly upon his ability and the effort he puts forth. This course consists of six semesters and is planned for the high school student who proposes to enter drafting without college training. Looking in on a hard working class of engineering draftsmer., PAGE li Q M W '- My K Above, we see a group of garment manufacturing students, patterning some new dresses You have seen the bright, red and white uniforms that members of the Tech Band wear and, two to one, you have wondered where they get them. F or your information, these handsome pieces of work are products of Tech's Garment Manufacturing Department. Turning out uniforms for band members, pep squad members, and mem- bers of the TSR enables this department to operate on a genuine production basis in the same manner as an industrial garment manufacturing shop but on a smaller scale. For ambitious students this course offers training in quantity production of garments made on the various types of power sewing machines. Pupils are trained in the cutting and production of an entire garment as well as in the production of section work. Training is given on those power machines commonly used in industrial plants The fields of employment in this type of work in San Antonio includes garment factories, department stores, dress shops and government shops. PAGE EH Good machine operators, cutters, finishers and embroidery Workers are in constant demand. Tech's Garment Manufacturing Department with Mrs. Mary Roseii as instructor attempts to meet this demand adequately and efficiently. Advanced students Work on the production line operating sewing machines, PAGE 95 Machine Shep .... Mil Q L Q This group ol machinists appears entirely absorbed in Mr. Dwenger's explanation on the principles of the lathe, The Tech Machine Shop under the efficient guidance of Mr. Dwenger offers every opportunity to an alert student. The object of this department is to assist the student in acquiring the skills and knowledge essential to a well- trained machinist. All Tech students who enter the machine shop must have the following qualifications: good mechanical aptitude, manipulative skill, and under- standing. They must have the ability to apply the fundamental mechanical principles involved in machine practice, to weigh and appraise things, to judge qualities of materials, and to meet new mechanical situations with accuracy. Mr. Dwenger supervises this group of students in their work with the smelling pot, PACE I6 Alter a student has completed a three-year course, he has acquired the technical knowledge necessary for him to be accepted in his tradeg he has acquired the ability to make tree hand sketches ot simple and complicated machine parts, the ability to understand specifications ot blueprints, and the ability to interpret their meaning and record data from them. The rate ot pay that a student receives upon entering industry is in accordance with his Worth to the employer. This student applies the calipers to his job cutting to within l lOUO of an inch correct. PAGE E17 r Y v ll ,yp flapwq '7m!e4 . . . . Students of Mr. Zettner's Piping Trades Shop put their newly attained knowledge to practical use. The term Piping Trades is used to cover that course which includes pipe Work tor plumbing, steam fitting, gas piping, refrigeration, and air con- ditioning. Students in the piping trades classes assisted by Mr. Zettner are trained to handle these jobs by studying the theory involved in these industrial uses of piping. They obtain practical experience by learning to cut threads, Wipe joints, caulk joints and sweat joints. They are taught to install and operate several types ot air conditioning units. They learn the theory ot sanitation as applied to plumbing Work including the local city ordinances on plumbing and gas titting. A refrigerationist adjusts an elec- tric refrigerator motor as part of his daily Work. PAGE W A mechanic in this field must be competent in several crafts. He must know how to install and care for electrical equipmentg he must be able to lay out and install sheet metal, and he must be able to fit pipes. All of this knowledge and skill must be supplementary to a specific knowledge of the theory and principles of refrigeration and air conditioning. These students have certainly proved their Worth to Tech. They have set up refrigerating units and given us ice Waterl Piping Trades students work at various tasks.

The instructional material used in the Retail Selling Course is organized to give the student knowledge and understanding of the problems involved in retailing. There is no attempt to narrow the student to selling a certain type of merchandise or to holding a specific position but rather to give him that in- formation which will help meet selling problems as they arise. Upon completion of the Retail Selling Course a student should have a background of knowledge which will enable him to secure, not only a position in the sales department of any San Antonio retail store, but he should be able to secure a rapid promotion. - Tech Retail Selling students have proved the worth of their course by active assistance to local merchants during these hard pressed wartime years. There are few department stores in our city that have not employed and appreciated students for their help. r .X , . , PAGE 102 saw: Mew .... Putting the finishing touches on a project has these students working hard, This is total War. All industries have proved of utmost value to our country in the production of War materials. Not the least of these is Mr. William's sheet metal shop, training ground tor San Antonio War industries. A sheet metal worker should be able to understand and speak the English lan- guage tluentlyg he should have a good foundation in mathematicsg he should be able to read plans and to lay out patternsg he should be able to use his head as Well as his hands in the manufacture of sheet v metal products. Work, work, work, nothing but work! But it all leads to a profitable career. PXFT 101 ln the sheet metal course students are required to make simple objects of sheet metal and to perform simple tool and machine operations. The projects are selected by the shop teacher to give training in developing rec- tangular, cylindrical, conical, and pyramid shape articles. The student thus acquires knowledge and skill in soldering, seaming, riveting, forming, and acetylene Welding. Sheet metal Workers are in great demand at this time. Graduates of this department are finding employment in local sheet metal and roofing shops, auto body and fender repair shops, and airplane factories. A class of sophomores learn the principles of the sheet metal trade, wr PAGE 105 fit, Zyelcfin ...... Playground equipment for one of San Antonio's schools is turned out by two of Tech's future welders, The use of welding in metal construction has advanced by leaps and bounds in these past few years. At one time welding was considered as a tool of the metal trades, but today it is a trade of its own, occupying the sixth largest field of employment in the United States. ln Mr. White's class the students progress through a series of jobs which gradually mount in difficulty. After learning the correct welding technique, pupils are permitted to work on practical jobs for the school such as the making of bicycle racks, the repairing of steel furniture, and the fabrication A goggled Welder applies his torch to an exercise bar to be used at an elementary school.

Altering garments, darning, mending, and patching ot Worn or torn spots in garments are their specialties. Students begin construc- tion by Working on simple straight line stitching such as household linens, simple dresses, blouses, aprons and uniforms or layettes tor Red Cross or British War Relief. As the girl gains in techniques and skill, she advances to more complicated construction with the last term ot her senior year devoted to tailoring of coats and suits.

The basic operations upon which the practices of the electrical industry are built are developed in this funda- mental electrical course. Students learn to read simple wiring diagrams, to care for and use tools, to design simple bill circuits, to build electric mogrets, electric motors, and electric bills. Here the boys tirst give evidence of their capabilities. From this class go the skilled electricians of tomorrow. A new class of Tech electricians receive their first training from Mr. Brunnemann. PAGE 109 rzswiqme 0 M . . The Diversified Occupations program is a part-time cooperative training program in which Tech assists businessmen in training new employees. This cooperative part-time program was designed to maintain a close correlation between the subject being studied and the actual daily work ex- perience of the student. This leads to more efficient assimilation of both. The D. O. program was devised not only to give students sixteen years of age or older an opportunity to learn some occupation and follow it as a lifetime job, but also furnish the employer a trained employee. Training may be given for practically any occupation for which there is a need in the community. The occupation must be one that requires at least 2,000 clock hands to learn. Normally a student enters the D. O. Program as a junior and signs a two- year training agreement. If a student is a Senior and has had two years in a Day Grade Shop course such as Auto Mechanics, Machine Shop, etc. he may be taken into the D. O. Program with a one-year agreement, providing the field in which he enters as a part-time cooperative student is directly related to the field in which he trained as a day-trade student.

Some Techites believe in doing a twofold job for Uncle Sam by way of holding down a job and completing their education at the same time under the part-time cooperative program in Distributive Education. Under this program the student-trainee works for a sponsor-employer one-half day, during either morning or afternoon hours, and all day Saturday according to a regular schedule. During the two-year training program, emphasis is placed on guidance and training. The trainee usually receives experience in keeping stock records, taking inventory, gift wrapping, merchandise display, and perform- ing the duties of the office in distributive firms. In the related Distributive Education Class, emphasis is placed on the knowledge and skill necessary for the student-trainee to receive a better un- derstanding of his job. Hotels, insurance offices, department stores, public utilities ,theatres, groc- ery stores, lumber yards, hardware concerns, storage firms, specialty shops, and display firms cooperate with the Distributive Education Program.

The Tech Service Reserve was organized in the fall of 1943. lt is Tech's largest girls' organization being formed by the former Red Iackets and ROTC. Sponsors. The navy blue uniform is definitely military, consisting of a skirt, jacket, and overseas cap. Black shoes, white socks, and a white blouse complete the uniform. Commissioned officers Wear light blue skirts instead of navy. Since the uniforms are made in Tech's Sewing Department, they are inex- pensive. The total cost, including complete uniform and fees, is approxi- mately twelve dollars. To be eligible for election by the commissioned officers, a girl must make passing grades in every subject and have a clear attendance and discipline record.

Brushing up on some Runnels' strategy, the Butts are pictured at their Ielt. gym. Rodgers drops in a beautiful tip in against Austin Maroons in the l5AA tournaments PAGE 168 The Butts' failure to continue at their hot pace can be blamed on the necessity tor traveling to letterson for practice. Because they had to give up practicing at Central, the Butts had to travel to left to begin their practice about six-thirty in the evening and practice hard tor two or three hours. Then getting home to do homework at eleven o'clock was no easy task. Perhaps the spirit ot our basketball players and coach who never gave up and went to unlimited trouble to represent Tech among the other San Antonio schools in the past campaign will be a challenge resulting in the erection ot a new gym. loe scrambles and gets the ball from a Maroon in a critical moment of their game.

We sincerely hope that the experience We have gained this year will help next year's staff to give their classmates a better and more complete annual. We, the members of the 1945 staff, have earnestly tried to do our best and have done everything possible to give you a book that Will be as dear to you as your school memories themselves. We Wish to thank all students and teachers for their understanding co- operation. Certainly, We feel that, in any school without a spirit such as ours, no tradition can begin and no tradition can endure. We Wish all of you the best of luck and happiness in the years to come.
