The details are as fol- lows: Designed to offer aid both to de- serving high school students, who lack sufficient funds for the usual college course, and to industry, the course will be of five years dura- tion, approximately one—half the time being spent in school and onevhalf in industry. Students will alternate between the two assignments at in— tervals of eight weeks while work will be assigned after consultation with cooperating- employers. The needs and progress of each student, together with the educational value of the work, will be under the con- stant supervision of a member of the faculty. All Expenses to be Earned Tuition for each of the five years will be $240 with an estimated ad— ditional $50 per year for fees and text books. These expenses will be paid out of the students’ earnings, wages being given directly to the students, who then meet their obli~ gations to the institute. Beginning students will be paid a minimum weekly wage of $15.

ARMOUR TECH NEWS AMHERS solar GEORGE WILLIAMS pimping ppAWS BECOMES sarcoma Lanna Tijmmjyl WCi‘l'flngoa TECH Although meeting,r opposition l Drawing the largest crowd over which proved to be stronger than was to attend a meeting of the CT' on “peeled. the 'I‘echawk camel's Li bagged the season’s second victory last Wednesday with a 31 to 20 win over George Williams. Beginning as a dull cxhibitfon of close guarding and occasional shooting, the game quickly changed into a spirited and snappy fracas. Gene Heike, high point man, with [our baskets and five free throws, was but a few jumps ahead of his mate at the forward position, Bill O’Brien, who counted with three buckets and two charity tosses. Chapter of the American In. of Chemical Engineers, the joint meeting last Wednesday night of the Armour Tech student chapter and the Chicago section of the A.I.Ch.E. proved to be an “eye—opener” to .th. not already familiar with the work done in the Armour Tech chemical The program consisted of a ban— quot, after which results were pre- sented of some of the experiments studied in the chemical engineering laboratories. This was followed by adjournment to the laboratories which had all equipment in opera- ticn. George ‘Williamn Scores First The actual scoring was a long time in coming. George Williams got the opening tip—off and worked the hall in, only to lose it shortly to Ar- mour, who in turn brought the ball back only to lose it themselves. These alternating futile assaults occurred five times, until finally Capt. Mc- Bride let loose with a long one to give Williams the opening basket and a 2-0 lead. Williams recovered the ball off back-board when Wolf missed his free throw and tried to work the ball into position. However, Bob Mcrz blocked a pass, dribblod be- yond the middle of the court and passed to O’Brien who pushed it in to tie the score. The name then settled down to a slower tempo, Ar- mour’s scoring plays; meeting strong: opposition from the zone defense un— expectedly employed by Williams, and the visitors themselves being un- able to click, with the giant Blewett, spearhead of the Williams atack, completely bottled up by I'Ieikc and held to one measly free throw. Show Croat Interest Much interest was shown by the visiting engineers, especially the younger ones, in the presentation of results of the study of unit opera- tions. The speakers presented their talks in the following order: 0. Zmeskal, J. N. Weiland, J. F. Kahles, W. J. Tallafus, 0. E. Norris, R. F. Berger, and J. H. Johnson. Prominent men who attended the joint meeting included Dr. Thiole of the University of Michigan, 131-. Ad ' lot of the Victor Chemical Company, Mr. Muchlberger, toxicolocist of the School of Crime Prevention at North- western University, Mr. De Beers of the chnson Evaporator Company. and Mr. Harper of the People‘s Gas Light, and Coke Company. Many Ar- mour alumni were also present. Praise McCormack Many of the men, when asked their opinion of the program, made r3- marks such as these: “Students show a lot of energy”; "Remarkably well presented"; “Surprised to find such a variety of equipment”; and “Did everybody good". Several of the Warner in Double Foul A bit of the unusual occurred late in the first half when Blewctt and Warner were fighting for a free ball. alumni remarked that the last few years have brought about a marked change in the equipment in the labor— atories, not only in the quantity but in the way in which it was arranged. Professor McCormack was highly. praised for the development of the Chemical engineering laboratories Election of officers of the Chicago Chapter of the A.l.Ch.E. was held immediately following the dinner. Dr. Adler was elected president; Mr. Arson, vice-president, and Dr. Barr instructor in Chemical Engineering at Armour was selected socetary— treasurer. After about ten seconds of tusslimr, the ball popped out of the melee and rolled away. Ilowcver neither man seemed cognizant of the fact and they continued their fun without the necessary sphere. The result was a double foul with neither player tak- ing advantage of the opportunity to raise his team’s total. Baglil‘f hooped two charity tosses and a bucket to end the scoring in the first half and put Williams back in the running, trailing Armour 11—7. The second half, opened auspicious- ly for Williams with Baglili’ netting: two free throws and Gentile follow— ing shortly with the tying; bucket. However, this proved to be Williams’ PM PIE ”a, Delta Win Friar. {loge Games Phi Pi Phi went to the interfratl basketball, finals to the tune of 36- 14, the Kappa Delts being the vic- tims. Ikenn of the Kappa Delts lang- up the first basket of the game, but the greater strength of the Phi Pi team manifested itself and the score crept upward in their favor. At the quarter Phi Pi led, 11-6. The scoring- in the second quarter consisted of three points gained by Phi Pi and one point gained by K. D. E. A follow up shot by Abbot of Phi Pi opened the second half and then the barrage of baskets came fast. Dunbar and Shukes sank the two final goals of the game and the score read 36-14 in favor of Phi Pi. The superior strength of the victors was evident while the Kappa Delts suf- fered from lack of reserves. In the first game of the interfrat basketball semifinals, Delta Tau Delta defeated Rho Delta Rho, 1/1 to 13. Starting: the game off‘, I-Ienriksen of the Delts dribbled neatly and dropper] in a field goal to start the scoring. Tar-adash of the Rho Delts equalized the score with a couple of gratis hoops and Sorkin counted dying threat; when they scored again they were eleven points he hind and the game was well on to- wards its finish.

The fencers will open the season with their first meet against Wright Junior College next Thursday, Dec. 19, at three—thirty in the collar box (gym to you.) The Armour attack will depend mainly on the efforts of the Trzyna brothers, G. I“, Kahlc, C. B. Folkmd, and P. A. Rah. Since the A. T. A. A. does not finance the cost of equipment, the formers must supply their own foils and mass. Manager Balai succeeded in ar- ranging a very still" season for the teams. A practice meet was held Friday, December 13, at the Univer- sity of Chicago. With represents.» tion of such schools as Northwest- ern University, South Side Junior College, and Wright Junior College at the meet, competition was fast and exciting. with a basket as the quarter ended. The second quarter was a point‘g‘et- tor for both teams: Engelthaler and 'l‘aradash taking most of the hon- ors, and the end of the period showed a 9-7 score in favor of Rho Delta Rho. The game progressed slowly in the second half until Luise of the Delts hung in a long shot and G3]- lughcr of the same team made a spectacular overhead tons. The tense play in the closing minutes, charac- terized by much fouling, gained points for both sides but the final whistle showed the Delts in the lead by one point.
