New Permanent MSM Buildings Are Result of Thoughtful Planning, Says leslie Cowan Thoughtf ul planning as well as steel, brick, stone, and glass will be represented in the new permanent buildings the Univer sity of Missouri plans to erect on the campus of the School of Mines and Metallu rgy this year and next.

And according to Vice-P resident Leslie Cowan , much thought and effort have gone into the building, remodeling, and equipment program which has been under wayan the Rolla camp u s during the l ast several years.

Mr. Cowan, who is also secretary of the Board of Curators and the man upon whom the main responsibility for the planning and equip ping of the University's physical plant rests, says that the E ngineer ing Laboratories Building and the Chemical E ngineering Building have been designed and located to make maximum use of the structu res and of the camp u s. The recent and current building program at R olla, he says, has been closely integrated with the educational, research, and student housing needs of the School of Mines and Metallurgy.

"For a number of years, especial ly during the l ast six," Mr. Cowan said, "we have been improving t h e physical p l a n t at t h e S chool of Mines and Metallurgy as rapidly as we could with the amount of f u nds we had available . T he Board of Curators has real ized for a long time that there was a need for increasing the faci lities of the Mechanical Engineering D epartment of the School and of other teaching and research departments as well. T he Curators, ther.efore, have continued to a sk the State to appropriate funds for this purpose. W hile it has no路t been possible for the Un iversity to obtain all of the funds required to carry out an adequate building and equipment program, ,the State Legislature has made appropria t ions for several of the structures re quested."

and equipment program being carried out by the University on the Rolla campus is designed to provide tools and equipment for use in the instruction and research program .

One of the most essential recen t physical plant improvemen ts ha s been the completion of the new Power Plant at a cost of $346 ,89.6 , which has given the S chool of Mines and 路 Metallurgy for the first time a p lant of the required capacity. T he el ectri cal energy needed on the campus is now assured , and it will no longer be necessary to shut down any of t he buildings because of an inadequate supply of power (Continu ed on Page 2)

Al,th ough th e expansion of the P ower Plan t faci lities is being delayed so that more pressing physical plant needs can be taken care of, a 500 k. w. turbo - generator has been co n tracted f or and will be in stalled a¡t a cost of $75 ,000. Coal and ash handling eq uipm ent, wh ich is a lso under contract, will be in stalled at a cost of $25,00 0. Un til the new generator is installed, two 25 0 k. w . diesel generators which the University obtained from the U. S. Navy w ill con tinue to carry the load. Th e diesels were installed to rep lace the old eq uipm ent, which was wor n out, and will be kep t on a stand - by basis after the 500 k. w. generato r is put in opera tio n .

Al t.ho ugh consider abl e work has been done on the steam tunnel run ning from J ackling G ymnasium to th e old power plant, there remains much to be don e in the steam, electric a l, and water disnibution systems. Funds are not now available for this purpose.

sity was forc ed to stop work on the expansion of the physical plant at the School of Mines and Metallurgy to provide housing, dining, and classroom space when stud e!lts began to come to the campu s in such large numbers as to overcrowd the facilities of the School. T o help lake care of GI students and othei's, t he enrollment of which reached 1lea r ly 3,000, the Univ ersity erected on the Rolla campus temporary qu arters for 216 single students and 56 married studems, and built 16 h ouses for members of the faculty.

Six temporary classrooms were erected.

W ithout these buildings, the School of Mines and Metallurgy could not have carried out i ts instructional program during the postwar period.

Dining faciliti es were provided by converting the garage immediately east of Harris Hall into a cafeteria.

T his dining hall, which is excellently equipped, has a seating capaciLy of from 190 to 200 and a meal capa ci ty of about 400. While the cafeteria is well patronized by students it has never been us ed to capaci\.y.

T he st uden ts are given a ,balanced diet, T he School's first ROTC building was made from one of the tempo rary classroom structures. The building, which was erected immedia t ely north of Jackling Gymna sium, is to be permanent. It has two stories, the grou nd floor being of concrete and the superstructure of wood . The building is 135 feet long and 30 feet wide, Playing' Fie1d Laid Out A playing field 400 by 400 feet, to be used for athletics, has been laid out on an area north of Fourteenth S treet across Highway 66. This field has been graded and other improvements wi ll be made as funds permit.

The University has made extensive repairs and alterations to its physical plant at Rolla. The Old Chemistry Building, the Rolla Building and t he second floor of Mechanical Hall have been remod eled . The wareho use building near Jackling Field was reconditioned and now houses the Mi ning Department.

Exterior repairs hav e been made including the complete r e roofing of the Rolla Building and the north w i ng of the Old Chemistry Build ing. A new cornice has a lso been

put on the Rolla Building. Norwood.

H a ll and the Old Metallurgy Build ing w ill be completely reroofed .

W a lls an d s¡ta irways in a ll of t h e buildings h ave been repaired. This work has been done as part of 1.'he deferred maintenance program. Because of lack of funds and materials regul ar maintenance could not be carried on during the war period.

To Store Mine Equipment I mprovements made at the S ch ool mine include th e erection of a small building to provide for t h e storage of mine equ ipment and to house a 100 k. w . generator w hich will supply power to the mine. A fence will be built around the mine and Ocher improvements w ill be made. Th e mine is now in t h e best condition it has ever been .

Among the new buildings which are in the process of ,being erected is the add i tion to th e Chemical Engineering Building . T he north end of this building was completed in 1941. The addition will be 87 feet long and have a 24-foot extension to the west at t he south end of the building. It will be approx imately the same size as the part of the four - swry building already completed.

The addition, which will a lso be of fo u r stories, will contain labora tories, office space , and a lecture room which w ill seat abo u t 250.

E xpected to be completed someiime in 1949, ,th e addition w ill be con structed of buff brick and will be of modern design . The contracts, w hi ch were let on J an. 15, 1948, call for an expenditure of $252,968 .

Th e State appropriated $27 0,000 for construction and eqUipment p urposes. The University w ill ask the Legi slature for additional funds to complete the equipping of the build ing.

In Center of Student Traffic The Engineering Laborawries Building will Ib e erected on the site now occupied by the old power plant. It is expected that construction will siart at the so u th end of t he building and be extended as far north as funds will permit. Being in the center of student tra ffic , the Laboratories Building wi ll be ex cellently located and will h elp to complete the quadrangle, The front side will be two stories high, of brick and concrete construction , with a corridor r unn ing lengthwise, MSM A lumnus

and the rear pari will have one story and will be of factory-type construction. There will be a corridor running through the building connecting with the walk on t!he campus leading from Parker Hall to Harris Hall.

The University hopes to have enough funds to connect the Laboratories Building with Mechanical Hall, io recondition the first floor of that hall, and to attach the north end of Mechanical Hall to the south end of the Mining . Laboraiory Building, which is the converted warehouse near Jacklin.g Field, The University plal).s io house the Mechanical Engineering Department and as much of the Electrical Engineering Departmeni as possible in this new building, When the building is completed according to plan, it will :be used for the remaining offices and laboratories of the Electrical Department and will also house the Departments of Geology and Mining, Bids will be let so that construction can be started on t his building during the latter part of this year, The State has appropriatMagazine

ed $500,000 for this purpose, The east part of the Engineering Experiment Station Building is to be remodeled and part of the Department of Metallurgy will use the building for laboratory work. A small extension will be added to the completed structure.

Mr. Cowan said t hat bids will be opened in Rolla on Sepi. 7 for the construction of the new dormitory building and that plan s and specifications are being drawn for the erection of the Engineering Laboratories Building.

The dormiiories will .b e built on a University owned tract bound by Ninth, Tenth, State, and Bishop streets. The first unit will be approxima tely in the center and on the north side of that tract to provide for expansion both east and west. It is hoped that construction costs will be low enough to permit the building of a residence hall large enough to accomodate 140 to 150 siudents, two¡ men t o a room. In order to provide more sleeping rooms, dining facilities will be omitted. It is pla nned for t he s tu-

dents to use the cafeteria on the main campus until dining facili tles can be provided in the dormitory system. Built of brick, with concrete fl.o ors, the dormitory wi.ll be fireproof except for the roof. It will contain four stories, wiih student rooms on each floor. There will be a small recreation room and a head resident's room. Each floor will have central toilet facilities. Floors will be of asphalt tile. . Each l'w)m will have single beds, double study tables, a study lamp, three chairs, two chests and two closets.

The State Legislature has appropriated $262,500 for the construction of this unit and the University will raise a like amount by issuing revenue bonds to make a tu .. al of $525 ,000 available for the construction of the dormitory. ln order to improve the campljS and to provide further remodeling of the old buildings at the School of Mines and Metallurgy, the Board of Curators will ask the ne x t General Assembly fo r additional fund s.

ENROLLMENT TRENDS Student Body at School of Mines Has Just About Tripled in Size Since 1940 Collegiate Registars pointed to numerous factors affecting coHege enrollmen t. He pointed out that in 1910 only 15 per cent of the boys and girls of America of high school were in high school, wh ile in 1940 about 73 per cent of such age gro up were in hi gh school and that some predicted that as many as 80 per cent in th e future wo uld graduate from h igh school. Going to high schoQol 'h as become a pa1tern in American Life and going to college seems to becoming now a pattern.

America has lagged in assisting its a blest high school stud ents in attending college with only about h alf going. There has been tendencies in t he reeent years to assist those w ith brains and no ' money to have vhe same ed uca'tional opportun ities that those with brains and money have.

FOl'eign stu dents too are a fac -

B y Noel H ubbard * The enrollment curve at Misso u ri School of Mines for the past 46 years shows tha't in 36 years the curve has pointed upward while in ] 0 y'ears i has pointed do wnward, most of these 10 years being due to war and economic up set. Since t he beginning of 1890, the enroll ment mcr,e ased about 50 per cent for each 10 y,e ar period up until 1930. Between 1930 and 1940 it practically doubled and between 1940 and to day it has just about trip led over the past decade.

t or in increasing en r oll men t:. In 1940, the Missouri School of Mines had 7 foreign coun tries represented here in the enroll ment with 14 stu dents. Last yea r there were 24 foreign count r ies with 63 students.

An increased tendency toward graduate studi es is a lso a facLor in increasing enrollment. 'Ilhe birth rate will be the most impol'tant fact or. This has increased rapid ly through out the nation during the past war and post- war years. 'Ilhese boys and girls, abo ut 1956, w ill be seeking an education.

Missouri S chool of Mines h as fo llowed closely the n at ional trends in enrollment ov,er the years and it seems probable in k eeping with th ese trends that there might be as man y as 3500 students on the campus in th e academ ic years 1960- 1961.

This will present problems a n d growing pains. Dr. A . P. Green , President of the A. P. Green Fire and Brick Company and for many y ears Chairman of the Board of (Continu ed on Page 9)

CLASS REUNIONS Prof. D. R. Schooler Rejoins MSM Faculty D. R. Schooler, '26, former associate professor of .Mining Engineering, will return Ito MSM next September 1, according to an announcement by Dean Curtis L. Wilson.

Professor Schooler was a member of the faculty of MSM from 1942 to 1946. For three years he was assistant professor of engineering drawing and was then transferred to the departmen t of Mining Engineering.

He has had valuable practice and experience and served for many years as superintendent of coal mines in Centralia, . Ill. A year ago he resigned to accept a position with a group of consulting eng.ineers in Chicago. During the past year he has had additional valuable experience in mine operation and states t hat he IS now happy to return to MSM with this background' of. experience.

Dr. J. D. Forrester; chairman of the depa'rtm'ent of Mining Engineering and Dean Curtis L . Wilson have expres~ed pleasure at the return of Professor Schooler, who lias proved himself to be a ' cap a ble engineer and an outstanding ' professor.

Study on 'Use of Metaphosphates.' in Refractory Mortar' Released Just released is a technical series bulletin entitled . "Use of Metaphosphates in . Refra.ctory Mortar." This was written -by ' P aul G . Herold, Professor ,o'f lCeramic Engineering and John F. 'J;\urst, Jr., a graduate in the department, ' and is the result of Master's degree work by Burst.

The bulletin describes the uses of present air setting refractory mortars and t heir disadvantages. In trying to correct some of the diffioul-ties, metaphosphates were investigated because of the fact that they show rubbery, sticky, cementing properties.

It was found that five per cent additions of metaphosphate in creased the strength of th e fired cement by as much as 700 % in some cases as well as increasing the mullite development. The fusion point was raised with some of the phosphates and lowered no more than 40 °C. with others. The metaphosphates tested were beryllium , barium, ,aluminum, sodium, potassium , and li thi um .

tFive Year Plan' for MSM Homecomings Suggested by J. M. Wanenmacher, '23

By Charles A. Freeman, '28 Chairman, Homecoming Committee The School of Mines, unlike some of our more publicized colleges and universities does not emphas ize graduation and encourage class reunions at that time. There has been little if any organized attempt, in the past, to regulate and encourage reunions other than haphazard attendance at annual fall "Homecomings."

The Alumni Association has been anxious to build up a lu mni inte r est and cooperation in the affairs of the school. It has finall y chosen the an nual fall "Homecoming" affai rs as the vehicle around which to build up this ·interest .

While our Rolla " Homecomings " of the past have been small and informal, the school has grown, and our more recent ones have 'been considera,bly larger. Proper attention should be given to organiza tion and planning to make these affairs more nearly fit the needs and desires of the alumni.

J. M. Wanenmacher '23, one of the directors of the Alumni . A ssociation, has suggested a pla n which he has chosen to designate as a "Five Year Plan." The propos ed plan provides for special invitations to be sent to the members of a group of classes which attended school a t about the same time. The members of groups of five successive · classes will be extended special and individual invita tions to attend "Homecoming." A good re presentation from these invita tions would result in a group which had

been mu t ually acquainted during its school days. It would add materially to the enjoyment of those who a ttended by being in a group, the members of which had had many experiences and interests in common.

The plan works as follows: This y ear, 1948, special invitations will be extended to those who attended school in the class years of 1921 through 19 25 and they will be encOUl'aged particularly to attend.

Next year, 1949 , special invitations will be extended to those attending in the class y ears 1926 to 1930 inclusive. In 1950, those attending from 1931 to 1935 would be urged to attend. Those who attended more than twenty-five years ago have not been mentioned so far, but they are in the plan also. When the 1921 to 1925 years are invited , the same invitations will be sent to those attending in the 1896 to 1900 years.

The 1901 to 1905 years are invited w it h those of 1926 to 1930 etc.

This procedure results in every alumnus receiving a special invitation to attend "Homecoming" once every five years. It is felt that with the inducement of a group of congenial acquaintances, many of our alumni will make a strenuous effort to att end at the five year intervals.

The plan in no way is meant to limit the a ttendance at "Homecoming" but rather to encourage and increase it. Everyone is always cordially invit ed to attend at any time he can regardless of his attendance y ears.

A schedule would be as follews:

Miners to Defend M IAA Grid Title

Cheering From the Sidelines

Faced with a 9-game schedule, Coach Gale Bullman is working hard to ro und up his 1947 M.l.A.A. football champions into shape for the season's 'o pening battle with Memphis State on September 18.

Officially, practice beg.ins Sep tember 1, whic h leaves just about two weeks for the Miners to brush up on their tight " T " formation .

St. Louis Alumni will have two chances to see the 1948 Miner eleven ,i n action this year-on Saturday, Septemlb er 25 , Miners vs. Washington University at Francis Field, St. L ouis, and on Saturday, November 20, Miners vs. St. Louis University at Walsh Stadium. On October 16, Parents Da y w.ill be highlighted by a conference game with Northwest State Teachers (Maryville), always a tough opponent. Two weeks later, on October 30, the Miners meet Southwest State Teachers (Springfield) in their annual Homecoming game. On a basis of last year 's p.erformances, this game should decide the conference championship.

W.i th 23 lettermen retu rning, the Miners' chances of taking their second straight conference title are considera'bly streng thened. Co-Captains Jim McGrath of St. L oui s, allconference fullback last year, and Bob Kemper of Johnston City, lefthanded passer and quarterback , head the list of returning letter winners. Also included in the list are: William Teas-End F red Eckert-End. Sid Duerr -End. Luther Steele-Tackle.

C. Cabanne Smith, Class of

~26, Chosen

By Houston Club as Engineer of the Month Cab was born in 1904 in St. Louis, M·o., and attended St. Louis University High School.

In 1926, he graduated from Missouri School of Mines w ith a B. S. in Mining Engineering, making two honorary fraternities, Theta Tau and Tau Beta Pi. He first went with the Braden Oopper Company to Chile, participating in underground mining and smelter testing. However, a "foot'ball knee" ha rdly fav-ored these duties, so with reluctance, he gave up plans for an active mining career.

In 1928, he came to Houston as engineer and assistant plant manager for Midwest Piping and Supply Co. of St. Louis. In 1933, he went w i th the Houston Pi.pe L ine Company, and was ins trumental in founding that company's safety and personnel departments. In line with the Houston Oil Oompany's well known policy of encouraging the industrial development of the Gulf Coast, Cab acquired a well rounded background in carrying out his duties of preparing engineering surveys pertinent to the contemplated loca tion of new industrial plants in this re gion.

With the advent of World War II, Cab entered the Corps of Engineers as a first lieutenant, rising rapidly in grade to a colonelcy before being assigned to the Engineer Section of the staff of Patton's Third Army. He saw that job through , winning the five battle stars possi·ble, and the Bronze Star as well.

After VE day, Cab saw further ETO service in the accumulation and preparation of historical archives .

Returning to the United States in 1947, Cab's previous brooad experience in crystallizing the industrial opportunities ·o f the Gulf Coast made him a natural for the position of manager of the industrial engineering department of the Second National Bank. It came as a pleasure but nO surp rise to his fr-iends w hen in April, 1948, Cab was promoted to a vice- presidency.

Cab has participated, willingly and capably, in many campaigns of a c·i vic nature as well; Community Ch est, YMCA, Fine Arts Museum, Symphony Orchestra , and others .

Recently, his background of indusMagazine

trial experience a nd his civic interest resulted in his being appointed a director and v ice-president of the Texas Chemurgic Council, a statewide non-profit project, to further

friends and acquaintances.

Cab, these friends say, has proved himself as an engineer and as a soldier, has demonstrated his sense of civic responsibility, and is simply carrying over into another field the character and ability he has evidenced in the past. They know tha t they and their profession have reason to be proud of C. Cabanne Smith. "'Published , with permission, from TJ1e Slide Rule, official publication of the Houston Engineers Club .

Enrollment Trends (Continued From Page 4) Visitors of the State University, a few years back in private conversation with Dean Wi lson suggested the desirability of acquiring land . adjoining the campus, with a view to possible expansion, predicting that in the not too distant future as many as 3000 students would be enrolled. During the school year of 1947-1948, there were 2908 students actually enrolled on the campus " hroughout the year.

C. CABANNE SM ITH

the industrial opportunities of the "new look" when agriculture is viewed through chemistry.

In 1932, Cab married Miss Luc y Thompson , daughter of Guy A. Thomp son, of St. Louis. The y have three children, daughters Susan, 14, and Mimi, 12, attending Kincaid School, and son Cabanne, 6. They live at 2435 Stanmore, and in addition to the Houston Engineers Club , Cab belongs to the Hous·ton and Forest Clubs.

Tradi tionally , bankers' veins are supposed to run with ice water. If that is true , and were absolutely necessary , Cab's friends say that at least one major transfusion would be required in his case. Instead, they expect him to continue his progress on the same basis as in the past, upon his demonstrated ability to view things in engineering terms, to be ali ve to opportunity in any industrial guise, to assess it objectively , and then to take intelligent, rational action, whi le retaining all of that warm heartedness which has won him such a wide circle of

There are some who wo uld say that there should be quality rather than quantity .

As one who has passed upon app lications for enrollment here for the past 25 years, the writer can safely say that the quality today is beHer ,han it has been at anytime in the past.

The question arises what so many graduates will do. There has been each year an increasing demand for men trained in t he field of techno logy. In one decade new technological industries have sprung up , as for instance radio between 1930 and 1940. The war between 1940 and 1950 developed many new ideas which wer·e not put into actual production. Television w ill thrive during 1950 and 1960. Nuclear energy will be in the development stage until about 1960 when i,t is predicted this w ill be applied to industrial processes on a larg.e scale. Expansion of the research facilities for the federal government, state government and private industry is ab sorbing increasingly large numbers of men trained in the scientific field. As one public relations official engaged in· a surv·e y of postwar demands for men trai ned in engineering rather p laintively expressed it, "even the mail order houses are now hiring engineers.

Prof. C. Y. Clayton (Co ntinu ed From Pag e 1 )

Missouri , in 1892, died June 27 , 1948, at his home in Rolla, Miss·ouri, following an illness of two months.

Karl F . Hasselmann, President of the Alumni Associati·on , beautifully expressed the sentiment of all in the following telegram to Mrs. Clayton: "It is with great regret that I have learned ·of the death of your esteemed husband . His life and work in Rolla were of great benefit to the School of Mines and the people and his strong advocacy ·of all things for the School's good will be remembered . I wish to express my personal sympathy and also sympathy in behalf of the Alumni Associati·on to yo u and yo ur family in your great loss."

Pro!. Clayton grad uated from the Missouri S chool of Mines in 1913 receiving a B. S. in Metallurgical Engineering. H e immediately joined the faculty of his Alma Mater and remained a member for 35 yearsuntil hi s death . During this time he Page 10

became a widely known member of the faculty of the S chool of Mines and a nationally recognized metallUl·gist. Early in his career, during World War I , he was engaged in research 'o n cartridge brasses and continuously since that time he carried on research work as a consultant as well as for his perso nal interest in the subject. He was .a Consulting Metallurgical Engineer for the U . S. Bureau 'o f Mines for many years and devoted some of his summer vacations to work in their laboratory. He was the author or co- author ,o f a number of techni cal papers and discussions that ap peared in the metallurgical journals.

As an outstanding metallurgist and scientist he held positions of high rank in scientific societies and served on numerous technical committees. At the time of his death he held the title of Professor of Metallurgical Engineering.

Clayt'o n as a student was very active and interested in athletics.

This interest continued throughout his whole life. For many years he served as Chairman of the Athletic Committee of the faculty . He organized a faculty baseball team to play in the intra - mural series whic'h team he managed until he met with an accident in one of the games which resulted in a serious injury to his leg. Led by his active en thusiasm, the faculty team customarily won the championship cup .

Until his recent illness he was a very active golfer and played un usually well. Typical of him - he put everything he had into whatever he was doing.

He served as Treasurer of the Alumni Association for 16 years.

On the campus as a stUdent he served as President of the Junior Class, was a member of the Kappa Alpha Fraternity, Sigma Xi, Tau Beta Pi and Blue Key honorary societies , Quo Vadis, Y. M. C. A., A thletic Association , Rollam o Board, st. Pat's Commi ttee and the Miners ' Minstrels.
