F‘orty men m. ' the call and were the general This statement was made by Harvey G. Ellerd, personnel director of Ar~ mour and Company, in addressing the convention of the National Col- lege Press association in Chicago two weeks ago. “I have every sympathy for the boys who are finishing their formal education during times of unemploy- ment, and who cannot find a job,” Mr. Ellerd said. “However, there are not enough of them to make any vast difference in the industrial picture and every industrial organization is anxious to get the cream of the col— lege crop. Every large organization must train its own men for important positions, and we have to have some- body to train. There are always vacancies to be filled.” Mr. Ellerd urged that boys enter- ing college make up their minds as-to their probable future and reg- ulate their educations accordingly. There are from 50 to 75 college men on the rolls of the Armour company all the time who are “students”. They work for pay but their jobs are changed frequently. Careful records are kept of each man‘s employment and as soon as he acquires the neces- sary knowledge of his work his job is changed. They are prepared for their business careers generally rath- cr than specifically. This course of training takes about six months. There are a number of students who are definitely placed in jobs which will develop into positions of importance. The progress of these boys is watched closely and the per- sonnel department of Armour Kt Company insists that their superiors take a definite stand in regard to] each man’s duture. They must decide what his next position is to be and train him accordingly. Much of the knowledge required in the packing business is best obtained given instructions regarding the practice sessions and the obtaining of the necessary equipment. For those who missed the notice of the meeting it is not too late to make your entry. To do so see John tails. Fancy Divers Needed At the meeting an efiort was made to interest the new 3‘ ' ‘ 1n the art of fancy diving. Last year the squad had at its service two very capable divers but both of these men were lost through gradumion. At. present the diving berths are wide open to the most likely looking can« didates. About thirty of the candidates are dash men, six are diving candidates, although none of these men have had much if any actual experience. The remainder of the men are in- terested in the breast stroke and the back stroke events. Although the regular swimming season does not open until after the Christmas holidays, there will be sev. eral time trials in the near future to determine the merits of the ma- terial. through actual work in the packing plant. This does not necessarily mean that the men are started at the bot- tom doing hard manual work like an older school of industrialists might have done simply to test the stamina of their young men. Last year several midwestcrn uni~ versities were visited by the per- sonnel experts of Armour in order to obtain the most likely prospects. The men chosen have been in train- ing for over four months, Mr. El~ lord pointed out, and very few of them have failed to live up to expec- tations.

Professor Instructs Armour Fencing Team The Armour Tech fencing team has been roorg‘anizcd this semester with Professor Harms Fisher, newly associated with the Social Science department, as instructor, and a new branch of sport is in the offing. The new instructor is a graduate of the University of Munich and while there belonged to the Massa- via fraternity. In order to be a mem— ber of this fraternity a Itudcnt is re. quired to fight a duel, and prove that he is a man by not giving ground during the entire engagement. Instructor Comes with Experience Professor Fisher was privately tutored by Hans Rust, famous Ger- man cluclint, and while at the uni- versity engaged in four duels with- out receiving a scratch. Dueling is closely connected to student life in German, French, and Italian univer- sitics because of tradition and mili— taristic associations. It is fast be- coming a favorite sport for Amer- ican students as shown by the fact that many European masters are teaching fencing in our colleges to— day. The United States fencing team took fourth place in the Olympics and were a serious threat at all times for the cup. Fencing, as compared to other Page Five Announce A.T.A.A. last oi Managers 1 The A.T.A.A. has announced the complete list of managers for the coming season. Although most of the positions have been announced on previous occasions the managers of the golf and tennis teams were not made known until last week. Howard Zibhle, a senior in the de- partment of fire protection engineer- ing, was appointed golf manager. Zibble has been interested in the golf team since he was a freshman, participating in the annual school tournaments, but was not able to score low enough to gain a place on the team. The tennis team has for its mon- ager Edwin Searl also a senior fire protect. Last year Searl was an as- sistant to Manager Colburn through— out the tennis season. Managers Listed The list of managers for all the teams is as follows: Baseball—J. Russell Lang. lBasketball——-John F. Humiston. Track —— Charles Handler and Chcdo P. Grakavac. Swimming—William ‘B‘. Ahern. Boring—Louis W. Biogler. Wrestling—~George W. Wheaton. Tennis-«Edwin N. Searl. Golf—ildoward J. Zibble. sports, does not require grca‘t strength, but (loos require skill and dexterity. Therefore Professor Fisher is organizing a class for be- ginners as well as a class for ad— vanced students. These classes are to be scheduled so that the men may put in as much of their "free time as possible. Professor Fisher says that he will not attempt to schedule any meets until after Christmas in order that the men will have some ability before meeting any op- ponenta. Team Meets on Saturday Practice has been held on Satur- day mornings, and also during the week whenever the men have had time to report. The use of the foil and light sabre are to be taught and although Professor Fisher is an ex— port with the heavy sabre, its use will not be taught because it is for tire periods will be posted on the dueling only.
