Thirty alumni in foreign countries received copies, The honor to receive the first two copies to come off the press was also claimed by Dr. Raymond. The third copy was received by Professor Hen— dricks in recognition of having fos- tered the idea of a student news- paper. Needless to say, Professor Hendricks was widely congratulated on the success of his promotional ef- fort. More than fifty members of the Armour chapter of the American So- ciety of Mechanical Engineers will at- tend the annual midwest student cons forence which will be held April 18—19 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The con- ference will open Monday, April 18 with an inspection trip through the Allis»Chalmers Manufacturing Com- pany. Dinner will be served and a Welcome meeting for all the delegates held. The welcome meeting will be directed by I. Thomas, president of the Armour student branch. Albert N. Schreiber, who will rep— resent Armour at the conference will present a paper on “Wire Tape." Pro- fessor Nachman is the honorary chairman of the Armour delegation. Prizes of 25, 15, and 10 dollars will be awarded. The results of the competition will be announcul at a luncheon Tuesday. Mr. H. N. Davis, National President of the A.S.M.E. and president of Stevens Institute will deliver the address.

The program for Thursday after- noon schedules inspection trips thru several industrial plants in the Mil- waukee area. These include the Phoenix Hosiery Mills Plant, A. O. Smith automobile fabricators, and the Port Washington Power station, one i of the most efficient powsr stations in 'thc world. A trip through a famous Milwaukee brewery is being planned after the Conference. No One Wants Them Characteristic of the humor of the Armour student was this news item appearing on the front page: “F‘lunk notices will be given out Wednesday, April 11, from the Dean’s office. Students must make request for them there if they have the slightest suspicion that they are entitled to one of the ill reputed ‘val- entines.’ The office very consider- ately withheld them until after the Easter holidays, as it was thought such a policy would prevent much profanity.” The Slipstick also had its begin- ning in the first issue with the fa- miliar line, “Cleave to the slipstick; let the slapstick fly where it may." The origin of the phrase probably had its beginning in the poem print- ed in that column of the first issue, of which the first two verses run like this: ‘ The slipstick rests in its leather case With ne’er a foreboding thought Of the agonized. soul-trying, mod- scratching pace That soon on its slide will be wrought.

The sub» ject will be “Choosing An Occupa— tion and Making a Success of It.” During the last five years great advances have been made by psy- chologists in vocational guidance. The advances have been made pos- sible by the application of the meth» ads of higher mathematics to a field which was only descriptive at one time. A great deal of the informa— tion has been made possible by the widespread use of the Strong Voca- tional Guidance Test. This test by finding a person's likes and dislikes is able with its 400 items to differ- entiate between twentymsevcn differ— ent occupations. The test does not determine a person’s abilities in a particular field, merely his inclina- tions. This test, together with the latest research in this field, will be the sub- ject of Dr. Krathwohl’s talk. fif$l for refreshing mildness wfirst for pleasing taste and aroma that smokers like -ouly cigarette about which smokers say “They Satisfl” (if. .M. Presents Group of Motion Pictures Last, Friday the General Motors Corporation showed another series of scientific movies to the Armour ites in the assembly hall. From the applause that came at the end of the program it would seem that all of those present enjoyed and ZIDDI'C' ciated the program. There were four pictures in all: “Soft Pedal,” which dealt with clutches; “Seeing Green,” on educational traffic picture; “Dc— siguod for Distinction," which show- ed the various steps in the pl‘C-pl‘o- duction part of the car; and “Rid— ing the Film," at lubrication dcmon~ stration. Perhaps the most entertaining of all the models shown was the traffic light in “Seeing: Green.” This model was a panorama of a model street set up to visualize actual traffic conditions. This part was made to show the solutions to the traffic problems through the use of lia‘ht systems. The accompanying: ex“ planation showed how the lights are actuated and the methods of setting the intervals.
