In general there will be no changes in curriculum. Courses will continue as in the regular fall term. There will be no more duplication of courses for irregular students than at present. However, a series of summer, freshman, eight-week, non-credit courses in mathematics, English, physics, and chemistry will be given for high school students having insufficient credits for admission. The one-week vacation at Christmas will be supplemented by holidays on J u l y 4 and Thanksgiving, November 26, in addition to such time as the student may have at his disposal during the registration weeks that will follow the three terms. Examinations will b e two hours long, and will extend for a period of three days. They will count as one-fourth of the final grade in comparison with the one-third of the present system. No change in the co-operative system is contemplated. Freshmen may enter with the beginning of the summer t e r m on June 8, if sufficiently prepared for the accelerated work, or they may enter the fall t e r m class on October 5. Freshman non-credit subjects begin on August 3. The Registrar at Georgia Tech should be consulted for f u l l particulars, in all cases.

Coach Alexander recently announced the athletic program for the summer which is planned for every student in the college. The aim is to balance the scholastic routine by giving each student the opportunity to participate in some sport. Instructors will be provided in football, basketball, track, tennis, baseball, Softball, rifle marksmanship, and wrestling. Every Tech m a n will be required to learn to swim before graduation, and will have to prove his ability by swimming 200 yards (Eight lengths of the pool). On the whole, the program will not only improve health, but will serve to relieve the long summer days of study.

New Calendar For Georgia Tech

THIS ISSUE Accelerated

Georgia Tech adopted an accelerated graduation program at its general faculty meeting on J a n u a r y 22. The plan will essentially consist of three seventeenweek terms, each year, with a one-week vacation at Christmas; and the terms will be divided into two eight-week report periods with a one-week period for registrations, re-examinations and the like.

Nominations For Alumni Officers

Records Of Men In Service

In accordance with t h e action as previously voted upon and passed by the alumni, a nominating committee was appointed to propose national officers for the Alumni Association for the one-year t e r m beginning September, 1942.

Since September, 1941, t h e Georgia Tech Alumni Office has been compiling and publishing information on Georgia Tech men in the various branches of the military and naval forces of the United States; and while this news has been of a general n a t u r e and not specific, it has proven to be of much interest to the alumni in the services, and to their respective families, classmates and m a n y others.

M r . Chas. F. Stone, President Atlantic Steel Co., M r . George T. Marchmont, Southern District Manager, Graybar Electric Co., and M r . C. L. Emerson, Vice President and Chief Engineer, Robert and Company, were asked to serve on the nominating committee and they have unanimously nominated and recommended the present officers for your consideration, to serve a second term of office. The foregoing is in keeping with your worthy and established custom of returning first term officers for one more year; as compensated solely with the honor, and the deep satisfaction that must surely follow from a sense of loyalty and unselfish service. Officers serving their first term and nominated, as stated, are: President, Robert B. Wilby, ' 0 8 . Two Vice-Presidents, Jack Adair, ' 3 3 ; Atlanta District, and Robert A. Morgan, Rome, Ga., and Little Rock, Ark., At Large; Treasurer, N. Baxter Maddox, ' 2 2 , to succeed Chas. R. Yates, who is now in the Navy.

Brief summaries have been published on the college and civic activities of these prominent, experienced and most capable nominees; however, it is a pleasure, indeed, for us to repeat the information. Robert B. Wilby for President. In business, Mr. Wilby is President of the Wilby-Kincey Service Corp., and the Wilby Theatres, operating throughout the Southeast. He took the E.E. course and was a leader in campus activities. He has given most generously of his time and ability as President of the Ga. Tech National Alumni Association; contributes most liberally and graciously to Georgia Tech affairs with which he is ably experienced, and is prominent throughout the nation in business and civic undertakings. Jack Adair, for Vice-President, is President of the Adair Realty and Loan Company. He is a son of Georgia Tech's great and immortal friend, "Mr. George" Adair. Outstanding in Georgia Tech affairs during and since his college days, he is also a prominent leader in civic activities, a liberal supporter, and experienced in college and alumni work. Robert A. Morgan, for Vice-President-at-Large, is a member of the firm of Moore, Thies & Morgan, Textile Engineers, Rome, Ga., and Charlotte, N. C , and Plant Manager of the Arkansas Ordnance Plant, Little Rock, Ark. He is the popular and efficient

It is most important to state that the information will eventually be used as a basis for historical data and publications; and the Georgia Tech Alumni Office desires very much to have the service records, at the earliest date on all alumni, as may be perfectly in order, in that connection. For the duration of the war, the A L U M N U S will only publish the names, rank, class graduation year or year and degree, and branch of service in general.

Alumni in the forces and their families and friends are sincerely requested to send information directly to the Alumni Office at Georgia Tech for publication and for the permanent and historical files of the Alumni Association, as stated. It is more efficient and much simpler to compile the records during the war, r a t h e r than to wait until it's over. Promotions and like changes are easy to add and, as such, they make interesting items; so, we repeat, kindly assist us in this most important undertaking.

Nominationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Continued president of the Rome Georgia Tech Club, and has also been president of several of the largest civic clubs in his city. Baxter Maddox, for Treasurer, is Vice-President, Trust Department, First National Bank of Atlanta. He is an exceptional civic and business leader and has attained state-wide and national prominence in business, civic and college affairs. H e was most co-operative in accepting an interim appointment when Chas. R. Yates w e n t into the Service. The officers and board members have done many fine and big things for Georgia Tech and its alumni, and they deserve much praise and many thanks for their unselfish and untiring work; the re-nominations are well merited. Active members of the Alumni Association who may desire to send in confirmations of the nominations as announced, or others, are kindly requested to use the blank on the bottom of this page or one similar to it, and mail to the National Alumni Association, Georgia Tech, by April 15.

THE GEORGIA TECH ALUMNUS

Army Air Base Named In Honor Of Tommy Spence "Spence Field" is the name that has been given to the U. S. Army Air Base at Moultrie, Georgia, in honor of Thomas Louis Spence, Jr., former outstanding student and star athlete at Georgia Tech, who gave his life in the service of the United States during the first World War. Tommy Spence entered Tech in 1913 and became president of his class during his junior year in college, and went from honor to honor on the campus where he attained immortal fame as a football star, in addition to being an all-round athlete and beloved friend of all. He volunteered for service in the World War in July, 1917, and enlisted in the Aviation Department August 22, 1917, in Atlanta. After finishing the Ground School course at Georgia Tech November 11, 1917, he sailed for France from Hoboken, N. J., November 23, 1917. Upon arrival at Liverpool, England, he went immediately to a concentration camp at St. Maxient, France, where he was ordered to the French Flying School at Chateauroux. On May 30, 1918, Spence received his commission as second lieutenant, Air Service, Signal Reserve Corps. He served as flying instructor at the third aviation instruction center, Issoudun, Indre France, until after the armistice was signed, November 11, 1918. On November 27, 1918, while still in line of service, Lieutenant Spence was killed instantly in an airplane accident at St. Floren about twelve miles from Issoudun. He was buried with military honors in the cemetery near Issoudun, in accordance with his expressed wishes, and there his body remained for five years until removed to the St. Mihiel American Cemetery, Thiaucourt, France. Mr. Thomas L. Spence Sr., and family reside in Thomasville, Georgia; and well may their pride, so keenly and justifiably, know no bounds along with that of their relatives and a host of other friends, at the glory that has ever been Tommy's and upon this everlasting and grand tribute in his honor.

Education Essential To The Nation Well do we know that education is, undoubtedly, more essential now to our Nation than ever before; and it is a pleasure to quote in full from an excellent editorial in the March issue of the S. A. E. Record on the subject, as follows: " 'Stay in college until you have completed your course, or are called into military or naval service'â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that is the advice that is being given to students by authorities who are in intimate touch with the problems of young men and are acquainted with the policies of the United States Government in the present emergency. "No one can tell what will happen to material wealth as the result of the war and the readjustments that will follow in its wake but the one certain thing is that the man with education and training will have a definite advantage over the man who lacks this equipment and will possess an asset which can not be taxed away or taken away from him in any other way.

James F. Towers, President Ford, Bacon and Davis

Underwood & Underwood. JAMES FULTON TOWERS, '01

Mr. James Fulton Towers, M.E. 1901, has been elected president of Ford, Bacon and Davis, Inc., nationally and internationally prominent engineering firm of New York City. Born in Rome, Ga., the son of Mr. William M. and Mrs. Mary (Norton) Towers, and a 1901 M.E. graduate of Georgia Tech, Mr. Towers first worked for the Tenn. Coal, Iron & Railroad Company of Birmingham, Ala., and then with other large subsidiaries of the U. S. Steel Corporation. After a long period of valuable service in the steel business he joined Ford, Bacon and Davis, Inc., and soon became vicepresident of the company, serving in that capacity from 1919 through 1941; he was elected to the presidency early in the present year, 1942, as stated. Mr. Towers is a director in his company, also in the Ford, Bacon and Davis Construction Corp., Allied Products Corp., Overseas Credit Corp., and is a member of leading engineering, iron and steel, blast furnace and coke associations. He was assistant director of priorities in the Office of Production Management from January to May, 1941. Education Essentialâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Continued "Also, the man with education and training will be able to serve the country better than the man without such qualifications, and the patriotic thing for each young American to do is to equip himself so as to be able to give the fullest measure of service of which he is capable. "The same consideration which should influence students to continue their college work should cause parents to realize that college training is now more important than ever before and resolve to give their sons this great advantage, if it is at all possible for them to do so."

Tampa Armory Named For Col. Homer W. Hesterly, 1910 Colonel Homer W. Hesterly, Georgia Tech C.E., 1910, commanding officer of t h e 116th Field Artillery, was signally honored toward t h e close of 1941 w h e n the n e w Florida State Armory at Tampa, Florida, was named Fort Homer W. Hesterly, and t h e 56th Field Artillery Brigade paraded to m a r k t h e outstanding occasion. Brigadier General Sumpter L. Lowery delivered the principal address at t h e dedication ceremony and, among many other complimentary remarks, stated: "If there is a better colonel in t h e army I do not know him. If there is a finer citizen and a truer friend than Colonel Hesterly, I have never m e t him." Col. Hesterly praised his regiment in his acceptance speech. "The 116th is t h e finest artillery outfit in t h e world," h e said, "and that has been proven time and time again on maneuvers." An entire page of t h e "Dixie," official infantry newspaper formerly published at Camp Blanding, Fla., was devoted to t h e dedication and it showed many interesting pictures of t h e parade, as well. Colonel Homer Hesterly was born in Villa Rica, Ga., and was graduated as a civil engineer from Georgia Tech in 1910. He began his military career at Tech and was affectionately known to his classmates as "Newt," short for Sir Isaac Newton which, in itself, was a very great compliment. He was commissioned as a first lieutenant in t h e Engineering Reserve Corps on May 15, 1917, and shortly thereafter went into t h e regular service. He served overseas and received his honorable discharge as a captain in August, 1918. Returning to Tampa, Fla., where h e conducted his business and made his home since his graduation, he became active in t h e re-organization of t h e Florida National Guard and advanced to Lieutenant Colonel in February, 1924. He performed valiant service in September, 1926, in relief work during

Cene Turner Letter—Concluded Christmas together in six years. W e w e r e together only four days before father had to get out to work— China is not an easy taskmaster these days—but days to be grateful for, even at that. We discussed plans and t h e question friends a r e asking: " A r e you going back?" China is still there; most of it free and fighting. If w e were needed and have been worthwhile in t h e early days of h e r struggle for freedom, w e a r e needed now. The Pacific may not be open, b u t t h e other day while I w a s in Miami, t h e Capetown Clipper landed, only fortyeight hours out of Africa. New routes of trade and travel are opening. For sometime, whether w e k n e w it or not, China has been fighting our battles. There, w e have an unfinished task. We have built u p a great, indigenous Y. M. C. A. movement—an organization of youth whose faces are turned to t h e future. The Y's task has just begun. Though it is financially self-supporting, it still feels a ned for advisory help in training of its personnel and in meeting t h e problems of program and administration. I am one of t h e few secretaries whom our older Movement here in North America has maintained in China. We are a goodwill loan to t h e younger Movement in China. The Chinese support and control their own Y. M. C. A. Movement; they employ their personnel both in local Y's and at t h e national headquarters to t h e number of more than 300, in

contrast with only ten from North America. Thus these ten scattered on good soil have brought forth thirty-fold. So m y friends of many years past, of t h e present and of t h e future now being fought for in China, North America, t h e isles of t h e sea, Africa a n d Europe, I hope to go back to China in J u n e or July. I have a stake there. You who have helped m e m a r k it off and build it, know that it is not one of material value. Because it is not of value which can b e measured or weighed, it is all t h e more one which can not be abandoned in time of suffering and misfortune. It is just one of those times, now come t o me, when ships can not be abandoned. I have a future to live. I have a country to serve, too, and I feel now that I can serve it best in t h e up-holding of democracy. Too much time spent in too many places has m a d e a personal word impossible, b u t this is decidedly personal in that each of you comes frequently into my thoughts. May this year ahead be rich in blessings and t h e inner satisfactions from which happiness comes. My family a r e grateful for you and your friendship, and w e feel as if w e belong to you whose interest and confidence has been unfailing over t h e years. Sincerely yours, Eugene A. Turner.

Spring Practice Started Early Head Coach W. A. Alexander moved spring practice forward to cooler days by starting on F e b r u a r y 9 this year instead of in April, as was the case in the past two seasons. He gave as reason for the change, the fact that the 1941 season was ended much earlier than expected, due to the cancellation of the California game. Twelve familiar faces were missing: George Webb, Charlie Burroughs, and H a r r y Arthur, ends; Captain Charlie Sanders and J o h n Wilds, tackles; Elmer Dyke, Bubber Quigg, and Wex Jordan, guards; Alternate Captain J i m Wright and Slim Sutton, Centers; J o h n n y Bosch and Red Oliver, backs. In addition to these, Hal Lamb, blocking back, Haley Ector, sophomore reserve end, and two freshmen stars, tailback Bill Bailey and J a k e Cox, kicking guard, have enlisted for military service. Drills will last about six weeks according to Coach Alexander's preserfl plans and a great deal of attention will be given as usual to last year's freshmen.

New Athletic Offices Now Occupied

View Of Rifle Range

Georgia Tech's new and modern athletic office building is now fully occupied by the business and coaching staffs, respectively, of the Georgia Tech Athletic Department. The building is located in the northwest section of Grant Field, on the corner of Fowler and Third Street. It is a two-story concrete structure and modern in every respect. The front entrance is on Third Street and leads into a spacious and comfortable lobby, on one side of which is the ticket and business offices of the department, carefully and efficiently planned for the convenience of the public. The coaches' offices and reception space are across the lobby from the business section. Head Coach W . A. Alexander has kindly designated space on this side for the convenience and registration of alumni and other visitors during all athletic events, throughout the year. The alumni office will be in charge of such registrations and will be on the lookout for the conveniences of the alumni and their families.

Under the offices and on the athletic field level are located the quarters for visiting teams, on one side, and an up-to-date indoor rifle range on the other. The team quarters are spacious, comfortable, and modern in every detail; incidentally these quarters have been in use since the first football game of last fall but the business portion of the building was not ready for occupancy until recently. The rifle range has added much to the interest of that sport at Tech and is a great improvement over the old range under the stadium. Alumni and all other friends are welcome to visit and inspect the building, during office hours. The Georgia Tech Athletic Department is proud of its new structure and there is every cause, as m a y be fairly stated, for such well w a r r a n t e d pride.

Naval R. O. T. C. Among First Established

During the World War I there was a great need for trained Naval Reserve officers. Men had to be selected and put through schools like Annapolis and Maryland in three months' time. Congress in 1926 authorized the establishment of six Naval R.O.T.C. units. These units were established for two reasons: that a three months' training program was too short, and that in a future w a r w e may not have three months to train officers and men before meeting the enemy. The units were distributed sectionally across the continent at the following institutions: Harvard, Yale, Georgia Tech, Northwestern, California, and Washington State.

Georgia Tech Alumni In The Army And Navy It is considered important again to state that the alumni survey, covering those who are now on active duty, is being. assiduously continued and the assistance of all alumni and other friends, particularly those in the service, is urgently requested for information on all Georgia Tech men in the service on whom we have no record to date, or on whom our present records are incomplete or incorrect. Including the 1941 class, some 1,500 reserve commissions have been granted in the Army R.O.T.C. alone at Georgia Tech, since the granting of the department's first army reserve commissions in 1920. Likewise, some 402 Naval R.O.T.C. commissions have been granted since 1930, when reserve commissions in the Navy were first granted at Tech. This does not take in account those who have received permanent commissions in the Navy supply corps and the Marine corps, nor the

eight Navy seniors this year who were named to the Navy supply corps for permanent commissions. In all, there are 1,961 and more who have earned their reserve commissions in the excellent Army and Navy R.O.T.C. units at Georgia Tech, and it is safe to assume that all of them, as physically fit, are now in their respective branches of the service. ' The foregoing total of 1,952 and more doesn't complete the figures by any means for, as may readily be seen, large numbers on the comprehensive list as published below and those yet to be published were not in the R.O.T.C. branches, nor in the full-time reserve courses, while at Georgia Tech. More lists are to be shown in subsequent issues of the ALUMNUS. A partial roll, however, of those now in the service is continued as follows:

Former Professor Author On Offensive Warfare Lieut. Colonel William Fergus Kernan, who has become overnight a nationally quoted military strategist, formerly taught modern languages at Georgia Tech. F r o m 1912 until 1915 Colonel K e r n a n was a professor on the faculty and later taught medieval philosophy at Harvard. His book, "Defense Will Not Win the War," recently published by Little, Brown and Co., is described as a "fast, hot, rough and tumble book that people could eat upâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;hit the bookstands when everyone was saying the same thing." "Wars are not won or lost in outposts like the Philippines," says Colonel Kernan in his book. "They are decided in headlong clashes at the great centers of military strength." He advocates a U. S.-British offensive against Italy this spring, using three-fourths of the U. S. fleet, at least half of Britain's, every bombing plane and every transport of both nations, and an A. E. F. of 200,000 men a month.

M. E. Department Oldest On Campus The Mechanical Engineering Building houses t h e oldest and largest department of Georgia Tech. T h e very first Tech diploma, class of 1890, was in Mechanical Engineering, and since t h e department's birth in 1888 it has been producing some of t h e finest engineers in t h e country. Its enrollment has steadily grown along with that of Tech. This year t h e senior Mechanical Engineers n u m b e r 125, over one-fourth of t h e entire senior class. Graduates from t h e M.E. Department are in great demand. No better evidence could be shown than t h e file of last year's graduates, one hundred per cent employed. DuPont, P r a t t & Whitney Aircraft, Martin Aircraft, Santa F e Railroad, Carrier Corporations, Chrysler, Goodyear, Navy, Armyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;large organizations, willing to place responsible positions in t h e hands of Tech engineers. Professor R. S. King, dep a r t m e n t head, says, "And yet t h e demand is still in excess of t h e supply, and will remain so for at least ten years." The reason for this demand is evident, if one studies t h e curriculum. Thorough training in theoretical mechanics and heat engineering, balanced b y extensive laboratory work in t h e construction and use of modern tools and machines, gives t h e student a thorough understanding of t h e basic mechanical engineering principles. Thus, h e is familiar with all but t h e more specialized details of t h e industry h e enters. In t h e senior year he m a y concentrate on t h e aspects of general mechanical engineering, or m a y prepare himself for entering t h e executive field of industries b y taking t h e Industrial Engineering option. Of interest to any person considering entrance into some field, is t h e salary group h e m a y expect to enter. According to t h e latest available statistics, those on t h e class of 1940, t h e average opening salary of mechanical engineering graduates from Tech, was $125, higher than t h e average of any other department. Another phase of t h e department's activities lies in cooperation with t h e Federal Government. Its facilities a r e of valuable aid in training workers for defense industries. 450 adult m e n a r e studying welding, ship carpentry, pattern making, and machine work here. This is not t h e first time Tech has served in time of national crisis. During World W a r I Tech was t h e ground school for 1200 A.E.F. aviators.

Helicopter Pioneers

Helicoptermen Igor Sikorsky and Professor Montgomery Knight are shown inspecting helicopter pictures during M r . Sikorsky's visit to Georgia Tech.

Professor King has given in these words t h e qualifications for a mechanical engineer: "He must have the aptitude for mechanics and t h e love of mechanical equipment; and he must get pleasure and satisfaction out of making it perform in detail and as a whole. He must have t h e ability to perfect t h e organization of his p a r t of t h e work both technically and in personnel.

Sikorsky Lectures On New Dimension On Tuesday night, March 3, Mr. Igor Sikorsky lect u r e d on the helicopter to a highly appreciative and capacity audience of students and visitors at the Georgia Tech auditorium. Mr. Sikorsky illustrated his lecture with moving pictures, and it was quite evident that he had added an advanced field and a new dimension to aviation. Professor Knight termed the inventor as the "outstanding aeronautical engineer in this country." The pictures showed Mr. Sikorsky operating the helicopter and performing such unorthodox feats as remaining suspended in mid-air and alighting in a few square yards area. The possibilities of such a craft, as explored by Sikorsky, are enormous. In fact, they are so great that he has devoted all his time in the present emergency to helicopters. With an eye to the present and future, the government has followed closely Sikorsky's work, but conclusions are being withheld. Sikorsky envisions the helicopter's chief development after the war in helping to absorb excess plant capacity. "The market for the helicopter," he stated, "will be with present-day automobile owners." Not having the airplane's requirements of an extended landing and take-off area, high speed and large storage area, he considers it a possible successor to the automobile, so long awaited by those with an eye to the future.

Sixty Colleges Represented At Convention Representatives from sixty colleges attended the Southeastern Conference of the International Relations Club to which the Georgia Tech Club was the host on Friday and Saturday, March 13 and 14. This was one of the largest and most representative delegations ever to come to the Tech campus. The n u m b e r of universities and colleges and t h e respective states from which they came were: Alabama: Seven colleges; Florida: Four, colleges and universities; Georgia: Fourteen, colleges and universities; Mississippi: Seven colleges; North Carolina: Thirteen colleges; South Carolina: Six colleges and universities; Tennessee: Five colleges and universities; Virginia: Six colleges.

Riflemen Win Twice From Georgia Following a series of other victories, Tech's rifle team defeated the University of Georgia for the second time, on March 6, by a score of 1451 to 1417. Walton was high man for Tech with 186 out of a possible 200 points. Symmes was high man for Georgia with 186, but Walton's higher standing score made him high m a n for t h e match. The individual scores of Tech's team were: Walton, 186; Riley, 185; Mason, 184; Gowen, 182; Owen, 180; Kearney, 179; Edelblut, 178; Seay, 177. One of the few defeats of the team was recently received from Mississippi State in the last official match of the Tech season at State. On March 28, all t h e college rifle teams of the South will compete in the Sectional National Rifle Association match at the

Atlanta Rifle Club. The team looks forward to this as the climax of the season and has started practice for the event.

S. E. C. Officials Meet On Changes Dr. M. L. Brittain and Coach Alexander attended a special meeting of t h e S.E.C. committee in New Orleans during March to discuss new athletic rules in reference to t h e accelerated school program. Coach Alexander and G. D. Humphrey, president of Mississippi State University, presented a proposed rotating schedule requiring each member to play at least six Conference games a season. This program is to include two permanent traditional opponents. The proposal also includes provisions for the members of the Conference to each prepare an additional schedule allowing room for four traditional games. Both schedules will be submitted for consideration by the coaches and general membership. The committee approved plans to regulate the recruiting of athletes but decided to wait until the general session of the Conference in April to decide the question of freshman eligibility. The session agreed to rules requiring schools to give prospects written guarantees of scholarships to which they are entitled. The committee also passed on a rule forbidding any member of a school to approach a boy already pledged to another school. This rule also provided for a quiet period in which the boy is left to decide on the offers of the school without any discussion by the schools. The session voted to form a subcommittee whose duties it will be to prepare the amendments to the Conference Constitution for the next general membership which will be held in Birmingham on April 18.
