Joseph, Michigan, at $50 per
week during the preparation of
the paper.

Applicants will be selected from
members of the junior class in any
of the engineering departments.
No race, nationality or religious
restrictions will be set, but candi-

. dates must have a “B" average in
classwork prior to their selection.

The candidates approved by
the screening committee will
write an article on scaled mate-
rial submitted by the donor
under examination conditions
and within a specified time. The

, examination will be held April
29 and the selection made not
later than June 1. .

The award will be made in two
installments on September 1 and
February 1. The Institute will
credit the student with the amount
of his tuition and award the re-
mainder in cash for his personal
expenses. An additional $250 will
be made available at the discretion

A reprieve has been granted to
those seniors who have not yet paid
in full for their “Farewell" bids,
John Christian, chairman of the
senior social committee, announced
today.

The final deadline is 1:15 p. m.
next Friday. After that any de-
posits an unpaid bills will be for-
feited, and the tickets resold at the
NU booth on a “first come~first
served” basis.

Next week is also the deadline
for ordering commencement an-
nouncements and class booklets.
Down payments may now be
made on these at the North
Union booth. The announce-
ments will be distributed during
the second or third week in May.

Class rings and keys will be dis—
tributed to those who haVe ordered
them on Monday from 10 am. to 3
pm. August grads may order their
jewelry at this time from Mr.

Illinois Institute of Technology will sponsor a dinner April
at the Blackstone hotel to announce formally to a group of com
mumty leaders the expansion of its educational program to-i

clude the Institute of Design.

Walter Gropius, worldurenowned
architect, who heads the depart-
ment of architecture at Harvard
University, will be guest of honor
and will speak on “Design and In-
dustry.” -

Toastmaster will be Walter
Paepcke, president of the Containv
er Corporation, former chairman
of the board of trustees of the In—
stitute of Design and now chair»
man of the advisory board to the
Illinois Tech trustees.

The Institute of Design became
a degree-granting department of
Illinois Tech’s engineering division
last December.

Dr. Henry T. lleald, president
of Illinois Tech, said: “This in«
tcgrat'ion enables Illinois Tech
to increase its service to business
and industry with a well-balanced
program in which engineering,
architecture and science are nug-
mented by industrial design and
visual communications.”

“With the addition of courses in
industrial design and visual com-

 

 
  
  
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
   
 
  
  
 

munication, Illinois Tech’s posr
as a great center of technologi ‘
education and research is strength
cued and its service to etude
and the community enhanced,”
Heald said. ‘
The Institute of Design we
founded in 1937 as a school of’i
dustrial design and visual com
munication by the late Lazl
Moholy-Nagy.

among possible uses for Do Pam's new Neoprene Typo W.

NEQFRENE «— the chloroprene rub-
ber produced by Du Pont research—
has long outpointed natural rubber
on many counts. Because of its greater
resistance to chemicals, flame, heat,
sunlight, weathering, oxidation, oils,
grease and abrasion, it is widely used
in such products as industrial hose,
., conveyor and transmission belts, in
sulated wire and cable, hospital sheet-
ing, gloves and automotive parts.

Until recently, however, certain
natural rubber compositions couldn’t
be beaten when it came to “petunia
nent se ” characteristics. Released
from the pressure of prolonged de-
formation, they returned more nearly
to their original shape.

This recovery factor is important
to some manufacturers, particularly
the people who make gaskets, seals,

Much as they wanted to use neo-
prene because of its other superiori-
ties, they often needed more resist-
ance to permanent defamation than
it afforded. So they used natural rub-
ber, but were never quite satisfied
with the way it resisted deteriora-
tion in severe service.

Du Pent scientists went to work
to solve the problem. Skilled research
chemists, physicists, engineers and
others pooled their efi‘orts. The re-
sult was a new polymer named Neo—

its molecular structure has been
changed so that the mechanical prop-
erties of its compositions are more
nearly like those of rubber. With
Neoprene Type W, it is possible to
prodncevibration—dampeningdevices
that are not only highly resistant to
oils, heat, grease and sunlight, but
recover better than rubber from pro-
longed pressure.

Neoprene Type W also provides
the basis for compositions that have
a low modulus of elasticity—are easy
to stretch. More attractive colors are
possible. Soon it may appear in such
articles as swim caps, where bright
colors and head comfort are impor-
tant. The brighter—colored composi-
tions should also appeal to makers
of appliance cords, coasters, sink
mats, stove mats and toys.

in developing the uses of Neoprene
Type W, Du Pont is working with
hundreds of manufacturers and dis-
tributors. Once again a "partner~
ship” of big and small businesses will
cooperate to give Americans the
benefits of an advance in science.
