arating the better players and reduc—
ing; the squad to a workable group.

Westinghouse fillers
Educational Course

 

This year 3500 college seniors
were interviewed by several West-
inghouse Educational representatives
and 1900 applied for the Graduate
Student Course. Of the total number
of applicants 260 men were accepted
for the course offered by the Wes‘rr
inghouse Electric and Manufacturing
Company.

The men enrolled this year repre-
sent ninctysix colleges in forty-
three of the forty-eight states of the
country. It is interesting to note
that out of the 260 students taken,
only 12 were in the lower half of
their classes scholastically. The men
after a short time on the course have
segregated into various branches;
ninety have chosen Engineering, one
hundred have selected Sales, fifteen
have chosen Works Management, and
the remainder have gone into the
Operating course in mind of going
with a public utility or industrial
company upon completion of the
course.

Along with the Graduate Student
Course, the company offers other
training courses. Forty college grad-
uates were employed by the company
as testers, and twenty-five students
were accepted for training in the
Junior Graduate Course ofl’ercd dur-
ing the summer months. In the two
year Intermediate Course open to
high school graduates thirty—three
men have enrolled this summer.

Every year the company trains a
few men from foreign countries in
order that all of the offices of the
company may have men who are fa-
miliar with the organization and op-

Progressing Eupidly

 

The tennis~ tournament, inaugu-
rated last week, shows half of the
first round already completed. The
number of entrants who aspire for
consideration on next year’s team is
64. The tourney was progressing at
a fast pace until last Friday’s rain
forced some of the scheduled matches
to be postponed. Meanwhile Rosen~
quist, by a default and a clean vic-
tory over Richter, has advanced to
the third round. The score of the
match was 6-3; Gv3.

The other survivors of the first
round are as follows: Paradzinski,
who defeated Katz, 75; 654. Trog—
nitz, winner over Olson, (#4; 6—4.
And Kaynor, Wack, Mortenson,
Schirmer, Jillson, who advanced by
default. The other match played,
Mironowicz-Klein, resulted in a tie;
Mix-onowicz took the first set, and
Klein won the second, 64. Monday
Wojcicszek eliminated McGill,’ 6-3;
6-3.

All of the firsta‘ound matches are
scheduled to have been completed by
October 14, so as not to delay the
second»rounders. Captain Stellar,
ex-Captain Jennings and Coach Tib—
bals are following the tourney with
great interest, since two positions
are opened on next year’s squad and
will in all likelihood be filled from
talent brought to the surface in this
contest.

flolfers Reach Semi-r-
Fiwal’s in» Tourney

 

The time limit on the Golf Touru
nament has been extended to allow
the matches to come to a definite
close. Floyd Orig, ’29, has already
reached the semi-finals and is wait-
ing for the semi-final play on the
remainder of the schedule to produce
an opponent. Orig has proven his
skill by defeating competitors han~
dily.

The remainder of the schedule
leaves the Jennings—Baldwin match
as yet incompleted, the winner of
which will play Larkin to determine
who enters the semi-final round
against Ong. The tournament play
is expected to come to a rapid close,
the winner of which will probably be
decided early next week.

 

ecutives of the company entered the
employ of the Westinghouse as stu—
dents on graduation from college.
The company has issued a booklet
outlining its educational policies as
related to college trained men. The
editor is informed that those inter-
ested may have it by addressing" the
company at its East Pittsburgh head~
quarters.

such institutions as Nolre Dame and
“Y” College.

The tank is open to the swimmers
on Tuesday and Thursday from 2:30
to 6:00 P. M. and from. 2:30 to 4:30
and then from 5:30 to 6:00 P. M.,
because the Chicago Polo Team uses
the tank from 4:30 to 5:30.

Many places are open on this year’s
squad, due to graduation of Brown,
Marhoefor, Dittmer and Abraham-
son—stars of last year.

Men who have not reported for
practice and tryouts for places on
the team are urged to do so in the
near future. Captain 'l‘ragnitz and
Manager Zolad are always at the
tank ready to look over new pros-
pects. At the present moment free-
stylera and divers are mostly in de-
mand. Members of the team or pros-
pective candidates are requested to
report at the tank every Thursday at
5:00 P. M. for general practice and
time trials.

So far this year, reports show
twelve men making time trials. Cap-
tain Trognitz mentioned the fact
that the recent call for swimmers in
the TECH NEWS brought out six
back—stroke men.

Last year’s team matched strokes
with three schools, meeting Notre
Dame twice, Normal twice and “Y"
College, winning two matches, While
dropping three.

The regulars on the boxing team
put the new recruits to a fast work-
out in the gymnasium Tuesday after-
noon at 5 o’clock. The meeting
initiated boxing activities for the
coming season.

With all of the members of last
year’s team (the one which made
such a good showing against Culver)
back in the fold, and a wealth of
new, husky aspirants, indications are
that the group will be a tough crowd
of fighters. Practice is scheduled
twice a week-”Tuesday and Thurs—
day.

W. E. Briggs, ’29, is manager of
the pugilis‘ts, while M. C. Larkin,
’31, captains the aggregation. Both
are still on the lookout for new men.

The team’s coach has not been
appointed as yet, but a selection is
expected in a few days.

Horn Returns From
Wool: Coast Tramp

 

As last weekls issue of the NEWS
was proclaiming to the student body
of the adventures of Mac Horn and
Kent Parker, both ’28 F. P. E’s, tell~
ing how Parker was bound for Aus-
tralia expecting to meet Mac there,
Mac Horn' (himself) walked into the
school with conclusive proof that he
was right here in Chicago. Mac said
he had been unsuccessful in deceiv—
ing the ships’ employers with his sea-
man’s haircut, and had failed to land
a job that would take him to Aus-
tralia. Hence his decision to return
to more familiar haunts.

Horn stayed in. few days at the
Theta Xi fraternity house, where he
is a member, and left Saturday for
his home in Louisville, Kentucky.
There he will resume his work with
the Kentucky Actuarial Bureau, of
which he is an employee.

One ship sails east, another west,
Though the self—same breezes blow;
It’s the set of their sails, and not the

gales, , '
That decides the way they go.

Like the ships of the sea are the
ways of fate.
As we journey along through life;
it's the will of the soul that decides
the goal, .
And not. the storm or the strife.
