it; William W. Bird, S. B., . . . . Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering. Prof. Bird is a graduate of Tech, of the Class of ’87. He r emained, after graduation, as an instructor, and con¬ tinued in this capacity until 1891, when he departed for new fields. In 1894 he returned to Tech, as a Professor in Mechanical Engineering. He has taught ’90 in Thermo-Dynamics and Machine Design, and has also had charge of the Mechanical Laboratory and the Thesis work of the Mechanics. Besides his work at Tech he also occupies the office of President and Treasurer of the Broadway Iron Foundry Co., of Cambridgeport. He is a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and of the Society for the Advancement of Technical Education. Zklotes W. Coombs, A. M., . Assistant Professor of Modern Languages. Prof. Coombs is another Amherst alumnus, having graduated from that college in 1888. After his graduation he taught one year in the Brooklyn Tech. He then went to the University of Virginia as a student and also as instructor. From there he came to Tech, in 1890, and filled the positions of clerk and instructor in the languages, remaining here until 1894, when he went abroad for a year ' s study at the University of Berlin. Upon his return he was made Assistant Professor of Modern Languages, which position he now holds. Although we have never studied under Prof. Coombs, his active inter¬ est in Tech organizations, and particularly his presence on the athletic field, have brought him before us so constantly that we feel at liberty to call him one of our professors. Walter L. Jennings, Ph. I)., ...... Assistant Professor of Chemistry. Dr. Jennings, wlio has been our genial instructor in the sciences of Mineralogy and Metallurgy, is a son of old Harvard, where he received his A. B., in 1889. After remaining an additional three years in advanced work, he re¬ ceived his degree of Doctor. He then went abroad for a period of two years, studying at Berlin and Heidelberg, and upon his return was immediately elected to the faculty of W. P. 1. By his thoroughness as a teacher and his genial and gentlemanly ways Dr. Jennings has become very popular with our Class, and we feel sorry that we are obliged to break off our intimacy with him. Sidney A. Reeve, M. E., . . . . Adjunct Professor of Steam and Hydraulic Engineering. Prof. Reeve is the only representative of Yale among the faculty. He graduated from this classic institution in the Class of ’87 and received his M. E. two years later. From Yale he went to New York City, where he was a member of the corps of engineers of the Westinghouse, Church, Kerr Co. He left this situation to accept a position on the editorial staff of the Progressive Age , published in New York and devoted almost entirely to the gas industry. He has made the subject of gas such a complete study that he is now recognized as an authority in this branch of industry. Prof. Reeve came to Tech at the beginning of the second term of our Senior Year and he has piloted us through Steam Engineering in a very profitable and interesting manner.
