Sixty Eight Manufacturers

Display New Emotions

at Exhibit -

Tho Nineteenth Annual Conven-
tion of the Association of Railway
Electrical Engineers ends tomorrow
at 5 p. m. after a four-day conclave
at the Hotel Sherman, Sixty-eight
exhibits are on display, representing“
manufacturers from all over the
country.

' Perpetual Motion fibown
The E. A. Lundy Company, of
, Pittsburgh, Pa, has the same “Andy
Gump Perpetual Motion Machine”
that was on exhibition in the booth
of the Coyne Electrical School at the
' recent Radio Show at the Coliseum.
The deception still remains unex—
plained.
High Frequency Phenomena

The exhibit of thaGeneral Electric
Company consisted of several dem»
onstrations of high frequency phe—
nomena. A neon tube held in the
hand glowed when the apparatus for
the radio transmission of current was
turned on. By means of the color
change, the stress in material, which
was being bent, was made visible.

Motor Bearing Exhibited

The Westinghouse Electric and
Manufacturing Company was for the
first time exhibiting the sealed sleeve
motor hearing, which allows no dust
to get in either the hearing or the
motor. A grid glow tube operated a
relay when a hand was placed close
to it. This is the first year that West'—
inghouse Servicing is exhibiting.

The Allen-Bradley Company is ex-
hibiting automatic starters. Their
latest improvement is a starter using
both a transformer and a condenser
instead of either alone. It is claimed
that this gives advantages that neith-
er type alone possesses. Another
type of starter is one in a sealed box
for use in flour mills or places hav-
ing explosive dust in large quanti—
ties. There is a watermproof type of
control button having a layer of pig-
skin between the buttons and the
outer case, for use in dairies.

Fairbanks-Morse Has Display

Fairbanks-Morse and Company are
exhibiting a new type of motor, hav-
ing a double wound rotor. The re»
tor contains iron pins which move as
the motor gains speed, thereby
changing the current flowing through
the rotor. It is claimed that this
form of construction gives high re-
sistance and high starting torque.

The Bulldog Electric Company dis—
play a type of switch panel which
took seven years to produce. It is
approved by the United States Bu—
reau of Standards and _;.’presents a
great safety factor to persons work-
ing on it. (i .

The Vapor Car Heatimg Company
present an automatic heating system
for passenger cars. This system will
satisfactorily heat different parts of
thevsame car. As it is a vapor sys»
tom, the valves are [under no pres-
sure other than atmospheric. Vari-
ous types of thermosliatic controls are
used depending upon the installation.
One of the greatiist advantages of
the system is they cars in the yards
are automatically lowered in temper-
ature, thereby eiit‘ecting a saving in
heating costs. i.

The Gould Ka hanode involves the
first improveme in storage batter»
ies during the it t twenty years. It
uses a plate of spun glass on each
side of a paste battery plate, result»
ing in a much lighter and more com—
pact battery. Twenty submarines of
the U. S. Navy are at present
equipped with these units.

The inquiring Reporter

 

Question: Now that the seniors
have jackets, ole you think that the
freshmen shouid wear green capo?

R. Steiner-t, '31, CH. Eu Yes, I
think they should wear them. They
should be green because that is the
color of fresh, young, growing things.

L. J. Weseli, ’32, M. 11.: No, I
don’t. I don’t think you should put
that sort of a distinguishing feature
on a freshman. You should, be more
democratic.

H. W. Montgomery, ’30, IF. 1?. Ed
Yes, I think it would be a good idea.
I formerly attended a state teachers’
college with an enrollment about the
size of Armour, and the freshmen
wore green caps. This feature, I
think, added greatly to the social ac«
I believe it
would have the same effect here.

E. J. Stelmo, ’31, E. E.: They
shouldn’t wear them because they
might be inducive to hazing. They
might make the freshmen targets of
the upper classmen. The way it is
now, the freshmen aren’t distin-
guished from the others when a
bunch of the students get together.

E. L. Comics, ’32., C. E.: No. The
Senior’s jacket is an honor, while a
freshman’s cap would lower the so-
cial standing of the freshman.

Clifford Ronnino, '30, M. 18.: Yes,
I do. I think it would put a little
more spirit in the idea of their being
freshmen.

C. H. Johnson, 38), E. Ed I think
it might be a good idea so that you
could tell the freshmen from the up—
per classmen.

Fred Rasmussen, ’30, C. 13.: fl‘here
has never been any way of distin-
guishing the freshmen except by
their lost expressions, so it would be
very fitting to have green caps as a
kind of tradition. '

Eire Drill Successful

The fire drill conducted by the dis-
trict flre commissioner last Thursday
was a considerable improvement over
that held last semester. According to
the rules of the fire department,
buildings should be emptied in less
than two minutes. after the sounding
of the alarm. Fire drills are con-
ducted twice per year by the depart-
ment, The most praiseworthy fea-
ture of the drill noticed by the com-
missioner was the manner in which
the students cleared the entrance.

Invthe near future gangs are to be
installed in Chapin Hall and in the
Armour Mission, both of these build-
ings at the present time having no
alarm system.

EXaE E SEWEEN?

Melvin Swanson, est-’28, died early
Sunday morning, October 20, from
the effects of poison which he swab
lowed the evening before, which he
took from despondency over the aft~
cr-cl’l’ects of a nervous breakdown
which he suffered several years ago.

Saturday evening the father,
Swen W. Swanson, who is head of the
collateral department of the Central
Trust 00., and Melvin played their
customary game of chess. Melvin
won the contest, and then, with a
smile, left the room. Bic returned
fifteen minutes later.

“Dad, I’ve done for myself,” he
said. “I just swallowed poison.”

For five hours a physician strove
to combat the poison with an anti—-
date, but at 1 a. m. Melvin died. He
was a draftsman with the architec—
tural firm of A. V. Teisen, 4804 No.
Kedzic avenue.

While at Armour, he was a student
in the Department of Civil Engineer—
ing, but left during his sophomore
year. He was a member of the
wrestling team while here.

L. Statkus, Range Officer of the
Armour Tech Rifle Club, has appoint-
ed three men to assist him in main-
taining supervision of the Range and
in instructing inexperienced mem—
bers. They will be on duty at the
7th Regiment Armory, 34th and
Wentworth, on the following days:

Monday, ll. A. Hess, 2-5 p. m.
. Tuesday, C. Rambolt, 10:30-12:30
p. in.
Wednesday, L. Statkus, 1»5 p. in.
Friday, S. Janiszewski, 3-5 p. m.
