FRESHMEN!! JOIN!!
Never in the history of the School of
Technology has the interest in field inspec-
tion trips been so marked as it has been dur-
ing the beginning of the present school year.
The trend is only for the better as it signi-
fies that the student body is sincerely trying
to augment the theory of engineering work
with the study of the actual conditions un-
der which the work is carried on. It is prac-
tically impossible for any school, even in
small measure, to duplicate in its labora-
tories the conditions of the world of industry.
To this end the various departments have
organized their societies and through the ef-
forts of their committees have presented
programs of lectures by prominent engi-
neers and arranged for inspection trips to
many industrial plants in the vicinity. Mid-
year will soon roll around, offering to the
serious thinking Freshman a chance to join
one of these worthy organizations. They
will be invited, but no one will beg them to
join. A-chance will be offered them. They
may take it or leave it.

to gaze with pride upon
those intrepid lads right
here in our midst who are
vieing for recognition as
examples of tonsorial per-
fection. Father O’Leary
instills a fine disgust in us
as Freshmen towards those
youthful spirits who aspire to a set of
“mosquito whiskers,” but he fell short of the
mark in three instances.
Because people laughed at him when he
told them he was in his last year at college,
Johnny Callaghan, Senior Electrical, much
like the amateur pianist we read about in
magazine ads, decided to convince ’em, so
he’s trying valiantly to induce a mustache
to prove his right to a place in Villanova’s
firmament.
Dick O’Shea is also engaged in agriculture
of this sort and says he hopes to have a crop
by the time he gets home for Christmas va-
cation.
The story of Hughie Schreiber has been
told before this but that hasn’t daunted him
in the least. He still prunes and trims and
watches with pride its painfully slow
growth. Latest rumors around Fedigan
have it that an expedition led by Ed Mayer,
who is fast losing his crowning glory, will
march upon Hughie and lift no more or no
less than half of the “mouse.”

Since that gray tiger cat has taken up its
abode in Fedigan no one has given it a
name. We would like to suggest the sobri-
quet of “Elmo” since it sits on its haunches
and looks at you much in the same manner as
its counterpart glares when angered... - - :
