MY QUESTION TO THE G-E STUDENT INFORMATION PANEL; "How does your business training program prepare a college graduate for a career in General Electric?" ...CHARLES

O.

BILLINGS.

Carnegie institute of Technology, 1954

The answer to this question, given at a student information meeting held in July, 1952, between G-E personnel and representative college students, is printed below. If you have a question you would like answered, or seek further information about General Electric, mail your request to College Editor, Dept. 123-2, General Electric Company, Schenectady, New York.

R. J. CANNING, Business Training Course . . . General Electric's business training program offers the college graduate the opportunity to build a career in the field of ' accounting, finance, and business management in one of the most diversified companies in the country.

Since its beginning in 1919, more than 3,000 students have entered the program—one of the first training programs in business to be offered by industry.

The program's principal objective is to develop men well qualified in accounting and related business studies, men who can become administrative leaders in the financial and general business activities of the Company.

Selection of men for the program is based on interviews, reviews of students' records, and discussions with placement directors and faculty members. Selection is not limited solely to accounting and business administration majors. A large number of men in the program are liberal arts graduates, engineers, and men with other technical training.

When a man enters the program he is assigned a fulltime office position in accounting or other financial work and enrolled in the formal evening education program.

This planned classroom work is a most important phase of the program. The material presented is Carefully selected and well integrated for the development of an adequate knowledge of accounting and business theory, procedures and policies followed by the Company, acceptable

accounting and business practices of the modern economic enterprise, and as a supplement to the practical experience provided by the job assignment.

In general, the program trainee is considered in training for three years during which time advancements are made to more responsible types of accounting work. After completing academic training the trainee's progress and interests are re-examined. If he has demonstrated an aptitude for financial work he is considered for transfer to the staff of traveling auditors or to an accounting and financial supervisory position. From here his advancement opportunities lie in financial administrative positions throughout the Company. Trainees showing an interest and aptitude for work other than financial, such as sales, purchasing, community relations, publicity, etc.. are at this time considered for placement in these fields.

Today, graduates of the program hold responsible positions throughout the entire organization. Management positions in the accounting and financial field throughout the Company, such as Comptroller. Treasurer, finance managers, secretaries, and others, are held in large part bv graduates of the course. Men who have transferred to other fields after experience in financial work include public relations executives, managers of operating divisions and departments, presidents of affiliated Companies, officials in personnel, employee relations and production divisions, and executives in many other Companv activities.

This partial list of positions now filled by former business training men is indicative of the career preparation offered by the business training program, and of the opportunities that exist for qualified men interested in beginning their careers in accounting and financial work.

From the Secretary's Desk AVE I ever told you how nice it is to be working for and with Georgia Tech men? You have no idea how much more pleasant my work is than that of some other alumni secretaries with whom I have come in contact. Of course there is plenty to be done in this job, and like many of you, there are things I would like to do, but don't have the money, time or whatever to get to it. The type of person who goes to Georgia Tech makes an excellent alumnus. We just don't have many prima donnas, wise guys or lazy bums. It's true that there are exceptions, but fortunately most of those in the above category find out early in their first quarter that Tech is not for them.

The reputation of Georgia Tech is made by its alumni. That's you! Incidentally, the reputation is also being upheld by the young group of graduates who have finished in recent years.

The present curriculum is better than it was — the faculty is steadily being improved — some strides are being made in providing a better physical plant — and last, but not least, our alumni and friends are realizing the value of a strong Alumni Association and Foundation. Yes, Tech is a great institution, but it cannot rest on its laurels — no institution can do that and hold its own — much less make progress.

Our contacts with business men who hire our seniors and our alumni are gratifying. These men are impressed by the quality, character and personality of Georgia Tech men.

They like the interest shown by the administration and the Alumni Association in placing Tech men with business and industry. They like the state of preparation found in Georgia Tech men. Nearly all Tech seniors have a choice of

H

several jobs. Our alumni also have many opportunities to contact various companies through our Weekly Alumni Placement Bulletin. If you want to hire a Tech man or are looking for a change yourself, just drop me a note asking to be put on the placement list — furnishing the vital statistics of course. We want to be of service to you.

THE DIRECTORY The long-promised "Roll Call Directory" should have reached you by now. If you haven't received your copy or if you find any mistakes, please advise us. We offer profound apologies for the delay, but our printer apparently couldn't produce at the expected rate and we couldn't seem to speed him up. If your contribution was received after January 5, you will probably not be included in t h e Directory. We had to have a stopping place somewhere along the line.

HOME COMING The 1952 season seems barely over, but here I am reminding you to order your football tickets early. The Alumni office addresses the envelopes in April — you should get your application by about May 1. If toward the end of May you haven't received your application blanks, drop us a note and we'll see that you get them promptly.

Make your plans early to attend Home Coming. The date is November 7 — the game is with Clemson. Tickets will be set aside in groups for members of these classes: 1948, '43, '38, '33, '28, '23, '18, '13, '08, '03 and the Pioneers. If you are in one of these classes, it is hoped that you will make a special effort to attend Home Coming, 1953.

Bob Wallace took over the ALUMNUS with the Jan.-Feb. issue and is making every effort to please you. This Anniversary Issue was his idea and I hope you like it. Send him some news about yourself or developments in your field of business. He is anxious to do all possible to improve your alumni magazine.

Yours for a Greater Tech, Roane Beard

MESSAGE F R O M T H E PRESIDENT OF T H E ASSOCIATION

By Y. Prank Freeman To all Georgia Tech Alumni: With this, the first edition of the Georgia Tech ALUMNUS, we are making our second important step in the development of the Alumni Association.

The first was the selection of a permanent secretary, one who could devote all of his time to the work of the association, and work out plans for a close and efficient organization. How well Mr. Albert Staton, our present able Secretary, has done the work assigned him is best evidenced by the progress made during the past year.

He, however, cannot continue to develop the association beyond certain limits without the whole hearted and close co-operation of every Georgia Tech man, and it is through the Georgia Tech ALUMNUS that we hope to bring you into direct touch with your beloved Alma Mater, and weld all of us together in a body of loyal workers that will not be equaled in the country.

Georgia Tech men everywhere stand out as men who do things and do them well, and we sincerely believe that once our aims and desires are understood, response will be such as to give our school "The Alumni Association Unequaled." It means hard work, sacrifice on the part of many, but such a sacrifice as we love to make, because it is a work for the institution we admire and love, the place where our boyish dreams were moulded into definite and concrete ideals, and the chance to realize these ideals given proper impetus and direction.

— 1923

Georgia Tech got revenge last night on the University of Georgia for that defeat handed them in 1921 when the Red and Black put the locals out of the tournament. And strange as it may seem, the difference in points at the end of the contest was exactly the same. The score was: Tech, 27; Georgia, 22.

In the first half Georgia made one lone field goal last night and really missed but few where her chances were good. Her players did not seem to get going at all, though fighting hard all the way. But in the second half they came out and took the battle into their (Continued on Page 28, Col. 1)

E M P L O Y M E N T SERVICE

By Albert Staton At the suggestion of some of the alumni, the Secretary has undertaken to establish an employment service in connection with the work of the National Alumni Association.

The purpose of this service is, briefly, to find jobs for the Tech men who want them, and to find men to fill vacancies.

One of the chief services that the Association can render is to find jobs for the boys who are graduated every year.

The men who have gone out before them know the value of the Tech diploma better than anyone else, and it is a natural thing for these boys to look for jobs with former Tech men.

The machinery of this idea is simple.

If Tech men everywhere will write in to the Secretary about the vacancies that (Continued

The School of Physics HYSICS is known primarily as a basic science, and for many years its chief contribution to industry has been made indirectly through the various fields of engineering. More recently the extensive technical development of industrial and military equipment has required persons with more and more fundamental training in physics, and physics has assumed an important place of its own as an applied science. Three reasons for this are (1) the rapidity with which scientific discoveries are rushed into factory production, (2) the complexity of modern equipment, and (3) the diversity of technical fields.

P

Industrial and military competition today demand the utmost speed in the utilization of new scientific discoveries.

Years ago, the lapse in time between a scientific discovery and its application in industry was so great that often there was no personal contact between the scientist who made a discovery and the engineer who applied it to industrial processes. Today, government and industry find it advantageous not only to hire research scientists, but to have them work side by side with engineers to expedite the adaptation of their discoveries in practical applications. The volume of research work increases yearly, and there are now so many organizations devoted exclusively to re-

search that it has become an industry by itself. This has brought an increasing demand for scientists trained to participate in group research work, and the majority of newly trained physicists are now going into industry or into industrialized research. This is in sharp contrast to the situation of twenty-five years ago when the majority of physicists were trained for academic careers in pure science.

The increasing complexity of modern equipment is well illustrated in the field of automatic control. There is an almost infinite variety of automatic control devices ranging from the simple thermostat on a gas furnace to the automatic radar on anti-aircraft guns that tracks a moving target and fires the gun with uncanny speed and accuracy. The industrial revolution which began by using machines to replace men's muscles is now using machines to replace men's brains, and it has given us computing machines that solve problems no man could solve. Such complexity in modern industrial equipment cuts across all fields of engineering and requires a thorough training in all the fundamental divisions of physics. It also creates a definite need for men trained as applied physicists/ T h e d i v e r s i t y of t e c h n i c a l fields scarcely needs any comment. There are so many different types of technical work today that very few college students know exactly what they will be doing after they graduate. More and more, industrial concerns are coming to rely on colleges for fundamental training, with the expectation that specialized training will have to be given on the job in any case. There are also many specialized fields where the number of technical men needed in any one field is too small to justify the establishment of a college curriculum for that field. Here again fundamental training best meets the need.

As a degree-granting department, the School of Physics is relatively new at Georgia Tech. The first bachelor of science degree in physics was granted just ten years ago in 1943. The school was established with a recognition of the increasing need of training physicists for industry, but no less with a recognition of the traditional importance of physics as a basic science in its own right. The work of the School of Physics includes the offering of service

THE B U I L D I N G — Unfinished at the time of the first issue of the ALUMISUS, it landed the cover slot. "Most Alumni hate cause to remember this entrance.'''

courses in basic physics to all sophomore students, the offering of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in physics, the offering of graduate work leading to a master's degree in physics, the development of a program of academic research in physics and the support of sponsored research work in our Engineering Experiment Station through the joint use of personnel The o f f e r i n g of t h e s o p h o m o r e service courses was our first responsibility, and it is our constant concern that the development of additional activities shall enhance the quality of our work in these basic courses rather than detract from it.

The curriculum for the bachelor's degree provides the fundamentals of physics which are necessary whether a student expects to follow a career in industry or in pure science. The first two years of work are practically the same as for all the scientific and engineering students at Georgia Tech. During that time, the students acquire the vocabulary, the fundamental methods, and the principles of the basic sciences and of mathematics along with a training in the use and appreciation of the English language. In the junior and senior years, the students take more a d v a n c e d c o u r s e s in t h e various branches of physics. A large amount of laboratory work is given to familiarize the student with scientific equipment and technique. Of the total time available in the junior and senior years, about one-third is open for electives.

This permits adequate differentiation between those interested in applied physics and those interested in pure science. Courses in chemistry, mathematics and more advanced physics are available for those who expect to continue their study in graduate schoolTHE GEORGIA TECH ALUMNUS

Courses in physical chemistry, in electronics, and in various engineering fields are available for those who wish to go into industry after college. Electives in Industrial Management may be included, since physicists who enter industrial work must expect to deal in part with problems of production Those who are ada nd management. vanced to positions of responsibility must invariably supervise the work of other men and the expenditure of money.

Graduate work is offered leading to the Master of Science degree in Physics, and our research program is being developed with the expectation that the school will be ready to offer work leading to the doctor's degree in the not too distant future. Some much needed space became available in our building when the School of Architecture recently moved into their own building, and most of this is being converted into a research laboratory for two of our new research programs.

One of these, under the joint direction of Dr. L. D. Wyly and Dr. C. H. Braden, is in the field of nuclear physics, and is supported in part by a grant we have received from the National Science Foundation. The other, under the direction of Dr. T. L. Weatherly and Dr. J. Q. Williams, is in the field of Microwave Spectroscopy.

The School of Physics is housed in a modern four story building with a staff of seventeen members and extensive facilities for instruction and research.

In addition to the research laboratories mentioned above, there are other specialized laboratories that are used both for instruction and research. The optics laboratory includes a Bausch and Lomb Large Littrow Spectrometer, a Gaertner Monochromator reaching into the ultraviolet, a Michaelson Interferometer, a Fabry-Ferot Interferometer, and modern metallurigical and polarizing microscopes. The x-ray laboratory has a recent t y p e x - r a y diffraction u n i t equipped with three types of cameras and an ionization chamber. A nuclear physics laboratory is equipped with facilities for detecting and counting neutrons, beta-rays, gamma-rays and cosmic rays. The heat laboratory contains optical pyrometers, radiation pyrometers, resistance thermometers, potentiometers, and an oxygen bomb calormeter. The electrical laboratory is well equipped to cover all the fundamental measurements in electricity and magnetism, including electronics and microwaves. A general laboratory includes different types of vacuum systems such as are widely used in research work today. Shop facilities are available for the construction of special equipment needed in research work.

@aMftu4aÂŤtal(tle4> James 6. Wohlford EE 41 Co-Op

Director of Co-operative Division EORGIA TECH'S Co-operative Division

was established in 1912 on the G basic principle that the better engineer would be a product of the correlation of t h e scientific and engineering practices of the classroom and laboratory and the practical experience gained in the working industry.

James G. (Jim) Wohlford, EE '41 Co-op, the Director of the Co-operative Division at Tech, is a product of and a great believer in this correlation. Jim's boundless zeal in the co-op plan for engineering students makes him a natural for his job of selling this type of education to both the prospective student and the industries that may employ him.

Jim entered Tech as co-op student from Erwin, Tennessee High School in the Fall of 1936. While attending Tech, he was Vice-President of the Briaerian Society, Treasurer of the Co-op Club, a Captain in the ROTC and a member of A.I.E.E. and Pi Eta Sigma. During his working quarters, he was employed

by Allis-Chalmers in their Pittsburgh plant.

After graduating from Tech, Jim entered the military service as a Second Lt. and was assigned as a radio intelligence officer. He spent five years on active duty during World War II, four in the Alaska-Aleutian area and one in Washington, D. C. He was separated from the service in 1946 as a Captain and immediately entered Stanford University, where he received his Master's degree in Electrical Engineering in 1947.

Returning to Tech in 1947, Jim served as an instructor in the Electrical En-

gineering School until July of 1948 when he was called upon to take his present position replacing James E. McDaniel who was on a leave of absence.

For the benefit of the older Co - op Alumni, Mr. McDaniel retired in June, 1950, from Tech and is now serving with the State Department in Barcelona, Spain after serving four years with them in Bremen, Germany.

One of the major responsibilities of Jim's office is the placement of the 700 Co-op students with over 180 different industries spread over the Eastern United States. This job necessitates a good deal of co-ordination between the students and the industries. Assisting Jim in this work are two more Tech Alumni; Associate Director John Cain, Ch.E. '51 Co-op, and Assistant Director Bill Hitch, a former Co-op who received his B.S. in M.E. in 1949. Through interviews with company officials and shop foremen Jim and his staff coordinate the industrial work with the Engineering curricula and take care of any adjustments in types of work, wages and other thorny problems. Jim also co-ordinates the co-operative program on the campus so it can best serve the students and t h e industries who employ them. At the present time seven of the Tech schools are offering co-op plans: Aeronautical, Chemical, Civil, Electrical, Industrial, Mechanical and Textile.

Jim was married in March of last year to the former Mary Green who was the Administration Assistant in the co-op office. (Jim says that Mary is now managing him as deftly as she formerly managed co-op affairs). They live in Decatur, Georgia.

Brittain Debating Society won first place honors in the annual Southeastern Intercollegiate Debating Tournament during the weekend of February 6-7. Over twenty Colleges and Universities of this sector entered affirmative and negative teams in the five rounds of debating the national topic: "Resolved, That the Federal Government Should Adopt a Compulsory Fair Employment Practices Commission." The Tech affirmative team took fourth place honors in the Tournament.

Toastmasters Club Formed A White and Gold Toastmasters Club has been organized on the campus by a group of administrative and faculty employees of the school. Charlie Commander, Secretary of the YMCA chapter at Tech, was the leader in the organization of this public speaking training group. The club is in the process of securing a charter from the Toastmasters International, a nation-wide organization for the promotion of better public speaking.

The Tech Chapter holds a luncheon meeting every Thursday at noon in the ODK Room of the Dining Hall. At the meeting the members alternate as speakers, Toastmaster, Instructors and Critics, in order that they all may become better acquainted with proper public speaking. At the present time the club has 28 members and is growing every week.

YOU CAN HELP The ANAK Society has just presented $250 to the Institute towards the purchase of a portrait of Dr. W. G. Perry, who was, for so many years, head of the English Department at Tech.

The total cost of the portrait will come to $490, and all Alumni friends of Dr. Perry who would like to make a small contribution toward the purchase of the portrait are asked to mail their check to George C. Griffin, Dean of Students, Georgia Tech, Atlanta, Georgia.

It is felt that there are hundreds of Alumni who would like to share in this purchase. The portrait will hang in the Reception Room of the English Department until the new library is completed at which time it will be displayed in the library with the rest of the campus portraits.

Attention — Newman Club Alumni Georgia Tech's Newman Club, Catholic campus organization, inaugurated its own publication, Newman News, last November; it is to be published quarterly for Alumni, Members, Parents and Friends. If any of the Newman Alumni who were not included in the first mailing would like a copy of the March, 1953 and succeeding issues, just drop a note to Editor, Newman News at 158 Fourth St., N. W., Atlanta, Georgia.

For those who may not know it, the above address is the Newman House, the Club's own home owned by the Diocese of Savannah-Atlanta. Twelve Newmanites live in the six bedroom house where weekly meetings, socials and other events are held. All former Tech Newman Clubbers are invited to visit the house anytime they are in the area.

Bush-Brown Guest Writes Director Harold Bush-Brown of the School of Architecture was the guest Editor for the December issue of the magazine, Progressive Architect. His article on the new Architect Building occupied the major portion of the Editorial Section of the issue. Editor Carl Feiss praised the Institute, the School of Architecture and the State of Georgia for their foresight in erecting the "finest building in the world devoted to the teaching of Architecture." A later edition of the magazine will carry the complete photographs of the building.

Virus Stings 'Recks' During the last week of January, the Tech Infirmary reached the saturation point with virus patients, and Howell Dormitory had to be pressed into service as an emergency ward to handle the overflow of patients. As many as fifteen students were bedded down in the converted dorm during the peak of Atlanta's virus epidemic of 1953. The occupants of the first floor of Howell returned to their rooms during the first week in February as things returned to normal on the campus.

Soul stirring cries of "Pass the crumpets, Reginald, and one lump or two old bean," resounded over the campus o n Sunday afternoon, February 22, as the Kappa Alphas played host at Tech's (5rst fraternity tea. (You read it right __a TEA). Students from Emory and Agnes Scott (where else?) as well as Tech fraternity men were invited to the gala affair. Aiding the host fraternity in the serving were members of Sigma Chi, Theta Chi and Lambda Chi Alpha houses at Tech. An old Emory tea-brewing process was borrowed by the KAs for the occasion. No permanent injuries were reported at the affair, an outgrowth of the latest collegiate fad.

HELP WEEK EDITOR'S NOTE: The following

article is

reprinted from the ATLANTA JOURNAL of February 25, 1953. Columnist Ernest Rogers, the author of this article, is a respected newspaperman of long standing in Atlanta, whose column appears daily in the JOURNAL. It might be well to point out many of the other worthwhile projects carried out by Tech Fraternities in recent years such as their excellent participation in the Junior Chamber of Commerce's EMPTY STOCKING DRIVE and the March of Dime's "Ugliest Man" contest.

The number of pledges working in this years "Help Week" was small because the idea was suggested after most of the fraternities had held their "Hell Weeks." Next year a much larger number of the Tech Fraternities are expected to junk their "Hell Weeks" for "Help Weeks." Tech chapters furnishing pledges for the 1953 "Help Week" were Alpha Epsilon Pi, Alpha Tau Omega, Kappa Alpha, Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Epsilon Pi, Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma Alpha Epsilon.

THE ARTICLE HERE has been a noticeable change in the attitude of college fraternity men during the last few years — for the better, I mean.

There was a time when the college fraternity member was looked upon as a youth devoting more than the usual amount of time and energy to fun and frolic. He lived in a house occupied by brethren of the same Greek letter persuasion and, in the main, perhaps considered himself somewhat above the average cut.

And when it came to victimizing such freshmen as affiliated with his lodge the exploits were generally of a most embarrassing nature, if not downright cruel. The principal season of indoctrination was called "Hell Week," and with good cause.

Engineers' Week THE CE'S SWEDISH BRIDGE MODEL — Senior

Tech's Civil E n g i n e e r i n g School walked off with first place honors for the second straight year in Tech's annual Engineers' week exhibit. A first place in next year's exhibit will give the CEs permanent possession of the floating trophy. Second and third place prizes went to the Architects and Industrial Engineers respectively.

Tech students in the CE School put over 2,000 work hours in the designing and building phases of their display models for this year. Along with the two models we have shown on this page, the CEs displayed scale models of the Oakland Bridge, the leaning tower of Pisa and a cloverleaf highway intersection that is being built in Atlanta.

Approximately 1,500 visitors, including 500 Boy Scouts, visited the exhibits in the Crenshaw Field House during the last three days of Engineers' Week.

This year Tech's Engineers' Week was in February instead of April or May in order that it would coincide with National Engineers' Week sponsored by the St. Patricks Council.

were Paul Duke, '45, representing the business world; Steve Hale of Fulton Bag, who judged the Technical aspects of the displays and Dr. G. B. Johnson of Emory who judged the ability of the exhibit to explain its functions to the average layman. The judging started at 10 A.M., Saturday, February 28, and continued until 4 P. M. that day.

Friday night, February 27, around 2,200 students and friends of Tech filled the Tech Gym to witness Tech's first "Faculty Fracas," a wild and woolly show featuring members of the faculty in various skits and musical selections.

Dean George Griffin, alias Gorgeous George, acted as Master of Ceremonies for the hilarious affair that was very well received by the crowd. Musical selections by Prof. "A-Less" Armstrong on the accordion with vocal, Research's Mr. Woodward on Banjo and Mandolin, Smilin' Jack Holton, vocalist and the Fowler Street Five delighted the capacity house. Skits by the English Department, IM School and the Mathematics Department and a chorus line that included a local Alumni Secretary rounded out the very successful show.

All of the proceeds from this production went to the World Student Fund.

WHITE

HOUSE

Correspondent OBERT G. NIXON, '27, crack Washing-

R ton reporter and chief International News Service White House correspondent throughout t h e Truman Administration, is something of a legendary figure not only in Washington but in an impressively large part of the world.

The handsome Georgian has roamed the globe in a manner dashing enough to make the adventures of the late Richard Harding Davis seem faintly pedestrian.

Since the early days of the Roosevelt Administration, when Nixon first came to the nation's capital for INS, his assignments have carried him the length and breadth of the United States and frequently into foreign countries.

Seventeen years of covering the presidents have produced a myriad of experiences for Nixon, but none so memorable as his dramatic exclusive interview with Harry S. Truman on January 26, 1953, in which the former President expressed doubt that Soviet Russia had the atomic bomb.

Nixon recalled at the time that it took him more than three years of patient work to "break" the story.' When President Truman ^announced in September 1949 that Russia had produced an atomic "explosion," Nixon wondered why he had., not said "bomb." Nixon's queries brought nothing from White House press aides except a flat refusal to go beyond the President's exact wording. ' In his college days at Tech, Nixon had majored in chemical engineering and the theories of atomic fission became a hobby with him through the years.

Nixon was curious, and decided that his question was worth putting u p to Mr. Truman whenever a good opportunity arose. He decided that he would broach the subject after Mr. Truman could speak as a private citizen.

Finally, in Kansas City, Mo., where he had been assigned to cover the exPresident's reversion to private life, Nixon brought up the subject during a lengthy private interview. The result was an explosive exclusive story that was major news in every corner of the globe.

Nixon was gratified to sit in the former President's office the following day and hear him tell other ^newsmen who were trying to catch u p with the story: March-April, 1953

ROBERT G. NIXON, '27, AND MR. TRUMAN "Familiarity

"I have said all that it is necessary to be said, and I stand behind Bob Nixon's story. It looks like Bob put one over on you fellows. He has certainly been working hard enough and long enough on it."

The A-bomb story was t h e second exclusive interview that Nixon had with Harry S. Truman. The previous one took place in Washington on December 26, 1952, and was the first exclusive interview given by the retiring President to White House reporters. This achievement, plus Nixon's dramatic beat, on December 10, 1952, in reporting President Truman's demand that General MacArthur turn over to the chief executive his announced plan for ending the Korean war, won for Nixon t h e 1952 George R. Holmes Memorial Award.

The Holmes Award is presented annually in recognition of "the best example of an International News Service reporter's work" during t h e year.

Nixon, who covered many of the late President Roosevelt's wartime conferences, and who was with the 32nd President when he died at Warm Springs, Ga., covered Mr. Truman from his first day in the White House. He went to the Potsdam conference with him, to the Wake Island meeting with General MacArthur and all in all traveled nearly a quarter of a million miles with the former President.

Nixon's distinguished career -dates way back to his college days, when he was bitten hard by the newspaper bug while enrolled at Tech.

Now 47, Nixon came to INS in 1931 as Southeastern Division chief with headquarters in Atlanta. He was r e garded as a comer then, and had achieved that reputation the hard way.

While chief of the INS Southeastern

breeds

exclusives"

Division, Nixon's biggest story was following the political rise of Senator Huey Long as a national figure — including his assassination. Nixon was in on the story of the Huey Long "era" from beginning to end and considers it one of the most important stories he has ever covered.

"It revealed," he says, "how the American form of government can be manipulated by a shrewd politician to create and cloak a dictatorship. But for Long's violent death, h e might have drastically changed the course of American history."

Nixon joined the INS Washington bureau in 1935, having been promoted to the nation's capital in recognition of his outstanding work in the Southeastern Division.

When World War II broke out in Europe, Nixon couldn't get overseas fast enough as a w a r c o r r e s p o n d e n t .

Although he was at first assigned to the London INS staff to cover t h e foreign office and embassies, he later became an accredited c o r r e s p o n d e n t w i t h t h e British Expeditionary Force in Belgium and got in on the Dunkirk retreat, where he barely escaped with his life.

Out of one tight spot, Nixon soon found himself in a new and more terrifying battleground — London during the blitz. When German air armadas swarmed over Southern England nightly in the historic blitz attacks of September, 1940, Nixon found himself ducking bombs again — while covering this critical phase of the war for INS. In 1941 he returned to the United States for a well-earned rest, but went back overseas with the first American troops to cover the North African invasion and the fierce fighting that followed.

Tickets Up

SPRING TRAINING, 1953 'Most interesting and important in recent years," Coach Dodd.

Everybody on the squad will be required to turn out on Monday, March 30, for the beginning of Tech's most important spring practice in recent years.

This year the custom of excusing boys who want to play other sports or who will be listed as graduating seniors will be discarded because of the large amount of work facing the coaching staff and the squad. The new substitution rule has made this change in policy necessary in order that everyone may get all the benefit possible from the four 5-day weeks allotted to spring training at Tech.

Coach Dodd feels that the new rule will hurt Tech more than the average school due to the fact that the 'Jackets have used the two platoon system exclusively for the past two seasons. Few of Tech's players have played both offensive and defensive football during their college career. Now all of them must learn to play both ways. Practice sessions will be longer and harder than in the past few years due to the effect of the new ruling on Tech football.

Coach Dodd plans to hold intra-squad games twice a week during the spring grind this year. The final practice game will be the annual T game on the night of April 24 at Grant Field. In case of inclement weather the T game will be held on the afternoon of April 25. This year's T game should be as interesting as most of the big games of the regular season, because of the question as to the effect of the new substitution rule on the Tech squad. Be sure and make plans to attend the T game this year.

valuable

The Georgia Tech Athletic Board voted unanimously to up the prices on football tickets for all home games effective with the 1953 season. Business Manager Howard Ector reports that this is the first raise in Tech ticket prices since the '45 season and it was brought about because of the increase in the cost of equipping and outfitting the football team in recent years.

Tickets for the SMU, Duke and Auburn games will sell for $4.80 in the East and West stands and $4.30 in the South Stands. The Homecoming tilt with Clemson will cost $4.30 and $3.60.

Tickets for the Georgia game will cost you $4.80, no matter where you sit.

The prices on the Davidson game have gone to $3.50 and $2.50. Last year's prices were $4.30 in the East and West stands for the big games and $3.00 for the Citadel and- FSU games. In the South Stands, the tickets went for $3.00 for the big games and $2.00 for the others.

Tech Night The presentation of the Noble Arnold Awards for the two most valuable players on the '52 football squad was the feature of the Fox Theater's annual Tech night on January 30. Defensive Linebacker, George Morris, and Offensive Fullback, Glenn Turner, were presented the awards by Miss Julie Adams, lovely Hollywood star of the Fox's feature film of the evening, "Mississippi Gambler."

Coach Dodd was on hand to present his "greatest team" to the turnaway house of 5,000, and the Tech Band was also featured on the program.

The selection of All-American George Morris as the most valuable defensive player for the 'Jackets was no surprise to any one in the crowd as George had already received the Atlanta Touchdown Club's MVP award. Turner's selection as the most valuable offensive player proved a pleasant surprise,, as he was the least publicized of all the Tech regular running backs of '52.

THE GEORGIA TECH ALUMNUS

TICKETS The big change in price is in the South stands. Last year was the first year in Tech history that there was a differentiation in the prices of the South and the other stands. Prior to 1952, you paid the same price no matter where your seat was located.

By early May of this year, all Tech Alumni should receive their ticket application blanks for the '53 season. If you are planning to see the Tech home games this year, be sure to fill out and return your application as soon as k you receive it — it will facilitate your getting seats.

CAGERS Tech's '52-'53 basketball team wound up with a record of 5 wins against 17 losses, but their 4-9 conference record enabled them to finish one step ahead of Georgia who rested in the Southeastern cellar. The "Bulldogs" were the only team that Tech managed to beat twice.

Oddly enough, Tech won only one game on the road all season, that one coming in the Gator Bowl Tournament where they edged Georgia for third place laurels. Their record at home was a very respectable won 4 lost 3 against strong opposition.

Pete Silas was the star of the Tech team this year as was expected. Capt. ''Pencil Pete" closed out his collegiate career by leading the 'Jackets in total scoring, average scoring and rebounding. Silas, who was named to the AP All-Southeastern first team and received an honorable mention for All-American honors this season, dropped in 374 points for an average of 17 per game.

His three year total at Tech was 1,084, a new record.

GOLF With only two of the top ten golfers of the '52 team returning, Coach H. E.

All three of Tech's championship division golfers in last year's tournament have finished school and they will be hard to replace.

Don Cole and John Maddox are the lettermen returning. Other team members will come from aspirants Joe M. Bearden, Jr., Larry Comer, Ned Edge, Richard Edwards, Ray Ford, Forrest Fowler, Jr., Charles Groover, Linwood Johnson, William Greene, Jr., Eugene Robbins, William Sibley and Charles Terrell.

The team is practicing three days every week, and hopes to be in shape to tackle their first opponent, Emory on April 3.

BASEBALL "This may be the year"

PETE SILAS — All SEC March-April, 1953

Forward

Tech's genial baseball coach, Joe Pittard, figures he has a definite contender for the 1953 season. Joe made no g u a r a n t e e that Tech would come through with their first Southeastern Baseball Crown since the conference was formed, but he did allow that the material was the best at Tech in a long while.

Only three regulars are gone from the '52 squad that won eight and lost eleven conference tilts. Third baseman

George Maloof graduated, after having a .289 season with the bat. Leon Hardeman, .263 hitting leftfielder, will concentrate on football this spring and first baseman Vaughan Dyer is among the ineligibles.

The 'Jackets look the strongest on the mound as their four best hurlers return for this season. Clyde and Buddy Young, Chappel Rhino and Dave Redford, all orthodox flingers, figure to better their collective 8-7 record of '52.

Other good prospects for the pitching staff are right-handers Glenn Johnson and Joe Rizzo and the only southpaw on the staff, Bernard Epperson.

Around the infield, the 'Jackets will probably go with Bill Cohen at first, Chappel Rhino or Jimmy Rogers at second, Buddy Young at third and Charlie Brannon at short. Rhino and Young are pitchers and will alternate between the mound and their infield positions. Brannon will miss the first five games because of football practice. Bill Clinkscales will see a lot of action as utility infielder and may break into the regular line-up if any of the others slip a bit. Sophomore Jimmy Joyce will catch again this year and may be the best man at his position in the league.

In the outfield, two hard-hitting lefthanders, Bob Hudson and Lew Andrews, are back to fill two-thirds of the space. John and Joe Huie, the freshman twins from Jonesboro, will battle it out for the other slot.

End of an Era A d i s c u s s i o n of the d e m i s e of t h e T w o - P l a t o o n s y s t e m The sixth decade of the twentieth century may go down in history as the decade of retrogression if the trends evident in the first two years continue.

For it was in these two years that the "swing back to conservatism" began in earnest. First, the Conservatives whipped the Laborites in England to end a half decade of socialism in the one time greatest of imperialistic nations; then the Democrats, the champion bureaucrats of this country, came a cropper to the Republicans, who promised to simplify the United States Government. Now, football's two-platoon system, symbol of specialization in the sports world,

has fallen by the wayside.

To help the Alumni understand the effect on Tech football of the "shock that shook the football world," we have asked a few prominent Tech men to state their views on the new substitution rule. We have purposely selected men that we suspected of having widely divergent views on the subject, realizing that most of you have already made up your mind on the subject. If so, you will find an argument somewhere in this collection that will agree with your decision. If you are "on the fence" something here may push you off. However, the final answer as to

Viewpoint of Tech's Coaching Staff

By Coach Frank Broyles, I M '47 The present substitution rule which eliminates the so called two-platoon system, certainly came as a shock to members of the coaching profession.

In an earlier poll taken by the rules committee, the college football coaches voted by a majority of 4 to 1 to retain the liberal or free substitution rule.

The rules committee has in the past followed the recommendations made by the coaches, but this year, after intense study of the college athletic programs throughout the country, they decided that a return to the prewar substitution rule would be necessary for the best interests of football.

Much has been written by various sports writers speculating on the effect of the new rule on different teams and players. In the Southeast, they have all concluded that Georgia Tech will be hurt the most as a result of the change. Most of us at Tech were supporters of the free substitution rule, and certainly Coach Dodd has used the old rule to every possible advantage.

He has scrutinized the capabilities of every player and used them to their fullest extent. Tech used over 45 players in every game last year and in so doing, had the best morale possible.

Reducing the number of participants in each game will make it much more difficult to maintain this exceptionally high morale. Our main objection to the new rule is that it will reduce the number of boys participating in the games.

14

Coach Dodd has always felt that the more boys allowed to play — the better the game.

Application of the new rule will certainly cut down on the degree of efficiency of all teams. The players of next season will have to be in better physical condition. They will have to learn all offensive and defensive signals, which will require more time on the practice fields and in the blackboard sessions.

We favored the old rule because it reduced practice time, leaving the players more time and energy to devote to their studies. We all realize that this is a big factor in helping our players to do well in their academic work. Last year our average practice session lasted only a little over an hour a day, and we felt our boys could return to their rooms and complete the required amount of studying. We think the faculties of all colleges and universities should be against any rule that will require the players to spend more time and energy on the practice field, thus cutting down on the time and energy available for studies. Tech's late afternoon classes and labs leave us less time for practice than most other schools, and unless we are successful in organizing our practices in the time available, the new rule will handicap us in preparation for each game.

The present rule will also place a severe handicap on the smaller players.

Coaches will favor the larger boys be-

ARE THESE SCENES GONE FOREVER? the wisdom of this change will come on the football fields in the next few years.

If the gates don't decrease, if the small colleges come back into the game, if there is a greater equality in the caliber of the major schools' teams — then the new rule will have proven itself. Any failure to satisfy all these requirements will mean the return to two-platoon ball.

cause of the requirements ,of defense, and many of the small outstanding offense specialists will become extinct.

Most coaches will select their players for defensive ability, thus cutting down the overall scoring and thrills of modern football.

How this rule will affect the 'Jackets is still in the realm of speculation, as spring practice does not get underway until April. Since our boys have only played either offense or defense for the past few years, they are eager to get started on this spring practice, so they can prove themselves capable of meeting the challenge of the new (for most of them) two-way football. In this respect, the coaching staff urges all Tech Alumni interested in football to be sure and make plans to see T-Day game on April 24th, it should be the most interesting spring game in the history of the school.

THE OTHER SIDE Vernon L. (Skinny) Borum, '23 — Guard on '21 and '22 teams The new substitution rule seems to me to be a good thing for the game.

The cost of college football under the two-platoon system had reached the point that many of the smaller and more poorly located schools were placed at a disadvantage competitivelyToo much stress has been put on specialization with all-around football ability suffering. I believe the new substitution rule will produce equally good teams — better in quality — with an opportunity for smaller schools to compete on a more equal basis.

The assumption that the new substitution rule will destroy or even damage the game of football seems to me to be a false one. The game has survived many other changes, some of them more revolutionary than the latest one. Admittedly, fewer boys will get to play under the new rule (or should I say the revival of the old rule), but those that do make the squad will be all-around athletes rather than specialists, able only to kick a ball, throw a ball or run down the field at a high rate of speed.

The cost of maintaining a team will be lowered considerably under the new

rule, and more schools should be able to field a representative team. The change should also simplify the game for the average fan, who stayed pretty confused as to who was playing wherewhen during the two-platoon days.

In reviving some of the old rules of football, I think that one thing the coaches will have to do is to condition players more. The average player will have to have more endurance; and in order for him to get it, more work and practice will be necessary.

HORACE HOLLEMAN, ' 1 4 March-April, 1953

incidence, is saluting this issue, an original member of the Georgia Tech National Alumni Association. The fact that he was a charter member of the Association is not, however, the reason for this salute.

Horace Holleman, '14, rates this salute for his practically single-handed effort to carry out a worthy project of the ATLANTA GEORGIA TECH CLUB. The project was to have a successful "High School Day" at Georgia Tech for the prospective Tech students in the Atlanta area. Horace initiated the program, distributed the invitations, and acted as overseer for the entire program. Tickets to the Florida State football game were given to high school seniors professing an interest in Tech, and an interesting program, designed to sell Tech to these students, was presented on the eve of the game.

A comparison of the attendance figures of t h e 1952 "High School Day" and the 1951 "High School Day," sponsored by the National Association, will prove how well Horace did his job. In 1951, the attendance at the program arranged for the high school seniors was below fifty; in 1952, over 400 attended the program on the campus.

One of the prime functions of an Alumni organization is to interest prospective college students in the Alma

Col.

Tech Club was held at the Tulsa Country Club on January 20. The attendance was entirely from the Tulsa area because of inclement weather and a severe influenza epidemic. Ten Tulsa members braved the elements to have a look at the '52 Jackets via the film "Highlights of '52." The next meeting of the Oklahoma Club will be held in May of this year; it is hoped that the club will have a better break in the weather for this affair.

Mater. Horace Holleman certainly rates a salute for his efforts in this direction.

MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE IN AMERICA - 1 8 3 . " 27

T H E PAST Message (Continued from Page 4, Col. 1) As undergraduates, the Georgia Tech student body recognizes no peer. The support given the school is wonderful, and it is only necessary to let them know that the school needs them in any kind of work and the response is unanimous.

As a Technological School, our reputation is second to none. Throughout the country, a Georgia Tech Diploma is recognized as the best introduction a man can have.

Our faculty is just as loyal and interested in the development of the school as the men themselves. It is impossible to pay too high a tribute to these men who, day in and day out through the long years, lay aside their personal gains and train the men who go out into the world and reflect directly their efforts. What a source of satisfaction it must be to them to look out into the world and see the results of their handiwork.

In sports we need no comments. No other institution in the South has done as much as Georgia Tech in developing their sportsmanship. Our satisfaction comes not so much in the victories won by our teams as in the knowledge of the clean-cut, high-class sportsmanship of teams, student body and alumni.

As individuals our graduates measure up to the high standards demanded, but as a body we have not yet developed. This is the call — Georgia Tech needs you. The faculty needs you.

We all need you. Will ycu come together with us and help make our association what we all want it to be? Let not the burden rest on a few, but let each man do his part, and if a little sacrifice is necessary, make it gladly — for the cause. If you are a Georgia Tech man of the dyed in the wool kind, this appeal will not be in vain.

Basketball - 2 3 (Continued from Page 4, Col. 2) own hands instead of allowing Tech to do this. They never waited for Tech to get set with a defense,, as in the first part and they never let Tech men get set for throws as in the opening. It was a different team-in play, at least.

Employment - 1923 (Continued from Page 4, Col. 3) they know about, we will take these vacancies and endeavor to fill them with men who seem to fit most nearly the qualifications desired. A list of men desiring positions will be kept on file, and their names published in this paper from time to time.

The first application that we want to list is that of Mr. V. P. Stephens, who is now available for additional work. Mr. Stephens has served as Consulting Engineer for the school, and has directed their campaign for extension, but his contract is terminated with them, and he is now free to do other work.

'Tech Topics - 1923 Our records in this office are inaccurate, to say the least of it. When we started in August, we had two chairs and a typewriter, no records of any sort. Hence, we made a lot of blundering, ignorant mistakes, through no intentional fault of our own. One of the worst of these was to write Mr. L. S. Collier, ME '05, of New York, and inform him that he wasn't a member of the association and ask him to join. He promptly wrote back and informed me that he was one of a few who organized the Alumni Association for Georgia Tech. We humbly begged his pardon and set our records straight on this point. The Association is certainly indebted to the New York Club for the way in which they organized the Association and kept the vital spark alive, alone for three years. We hope that they will see the fruits of their efforts in the next year.

THE PRESENT Message (Continued from Page 5, Col. 1) In the years immediately after World War II, your trustees felt the need of an Annual Roll Call for the purpose of expanding the number of Alumni who would support and actively participate in the affairs of the Association and Alumni Foundation. From year to year our membership has been increasing so that now on our rolls are 6,500 active members to whom, of course, will be sent this Anniversary issue and all succeeding issues. Personally, I obtain a great thrill out of each issue of our magazine by learning of old friends and of the latest developments on our ever expanding campus. I am sure that you share in these feelings.

Now your trustees and I ask each of you to help in the days ahead to ever

increase the active membership in the Association. Certainly you come into contact each day and week with a number of fellow Tech graduates and it would be most helpful if you would ascertain whether or not they are on our active rolls and if not, ask them to get in touch with the Alumni office.

Elsewhere in this issue you will find a review of many expanded activities on the part of your Association, as well as a summary of some of the outstanding improvements on our campus.

At such an important milestone as this, the Thirtieth Anniversary of the initial publication of our Georgia Tech ALUMNUS, it is only fitting that we pay tribute to the official family at Georgia Tech — President Van Leer, Vice-President Cherry Emerson, and the many others who have planned and worked so hard to bring into being a finer and more modern Georgia Tech. It is indeed an inspiring sight to see our expanded campus with many new buildings dotting the area and many more planned for the immediate future.-'.

It certainly would not be premature to tell you that for Homecoming this Fall we want particularly all returning Alumni to visit to the fullest possible extent the New Georgia Tech. Please start laying your plans now to be on hand for Homecoming 1953, which is scheduled for Saturday, November 7, the date of the Georgia Tech-Clemson football game.

With deep gratitude to our school administration and to all Alumni who have so splendidly co-operated with the Alumni Association, we now confidently look forward to the next thirty years as a time when our institute will even more completely fulfill its destiny.

A Review - 1953 (Continued from Page 5, CoL 2) answered. Request information you wish us to print. Send in personal items regarding yourself and your acquaintances, and we will try to make this magazine such a good one that you will miss it if you don't get every issue. Four Editors, two wars, (having just served his second hitch, the Editor considers the Korean Action a war) a bleak depression and the two biggest booms in history later; these words still stand as a large part of our editorial policy.

When the ALUMNUS first went into print, World War I had come and gone; the last of the Doughboy students were finishing u p their education on the flats, the football team had started downhill after a wonderful eight years of victories (59 wins against 8 losses and 2 ties), Dr. M. L. Brittain had just become the President of the school and W. A. Alexander had put in his second season as Head Football Coach. In the THE GEORGIA TECH ALUMNUS

succeeding years, only one change has been made in each of these positions; President Blake Van Leer took over the Presidency in 1944 when Dr. Brittain retired and Coach Alex handed over the Athletic reins to his Assistant, Bobby Dodd, in 1945. It is a great tribute to the stability of our school, its leaders and you, the Alumni, that we have had only one change of personnel in these two offices in the past thirty years. Very few, if any, major higher educational institutions can match this record.

105 Active Alumni made the publication of the first issue of this magazine possible, many of those 105 men are still as active in Alumni work today as they were in 1923. L. W. (Chip) Robert, Jr., Cherry Emerson, R. L. Bidez, Horace Holleman and many others still devote a good deal of their time to aiding Georgia Tech. — Others of the 105 have passed on — to these 105 we respectfully dedicate this issue of the Georgia Tech ALUMNUS, without them it would not have been, a 30th Anniversary Issue.

Today, the National Association has 6,500 active members, 5,270 of this number have answered the sixth roll call to date while the balance are graduates of the school in the past year. This is another record of which all Tech Alumni can be proud —the size of this organization has increased over sixtyfold in the past thirty years. Although any proportional increase in the next thirty years is beyond reality, we hope that the Association growth will keep pace with the growth of Georgia Tech, which also has undergone its greatest period of growth in the past thirty years, especially in the nine years of President Van Leer's tenure.

END of AN ERA (Continued

from Page 15)

The Other Side Rather than stand silently by while criticism flows unchecked, we feel that something ought to be said in favor of the new ruling.

To begin with, the Georgia Tech football team will not necessarily lose its high standing due to the change. We are no worse off than the rest of the SEC, or the rest of the nation for that matter, and we are better off than many schools. Most of the success of the Yellow Jackets is due to the work of Bobby Dcdd, and while he is Coach, Georgia Tech will not field a poor football team.

The men who passed the rules are football men too; they were coaching winning teams before most of us even knew what a football was. Men like General Bob Neyland, Fritz Crisler and Lou Little love football because it is their life. It is hard to believe that they would make a rash or hasty decision on a matter so important as this.

The truth is that the rules committee of the NCAA did not take into consideration what the public wants to see, what the players and students want, or even what the coaches then-selves want. This was intentional; the committee feared that college football, already so expensive that only large schools can make a success of it, might some day be completely dominated by only a handful of really large and rich colleges, true "football factories," and that football as a general college sport might disappear.

Far from trying to hurt football, these men were thinking on a higher level, thinking of the years ahead, and were sincerely trying to save college football for the colleges. Whether their decision will accomplish what they wish or whether it was at all necessary is something that only future seasons will decide.

But recently the fraternity men, perhaps mindful of the fact that they had enjoyed a bad press and were flunking their public relations job in miserable fashion, have done a turnabout and in so doing have not only been helpful to others in many notable instances but have increased public regard for them thereby.

FINE GESTURE I have in mind particularly the unselfish gesture of the Inter-Fraternity Council of Georgia Tech that employed 100 of its members during the last week end in improving the facilities of the Bankhead Boys' Club project on Bankhead Ave. jointly sponsored and operated by the Variety Club of Atlanta, the Salvation Army and the Atlanta Optimist Club.

These young collegians, beginning last Friday, went over the entire establishment with paint and brush and otherwise beautified and improved the grounds where the underprivileged youth of the Bankhead community are wont to build muscles and character on the excellently appointed play ground.

In other words "Hell Week" was converted into a "Help Week" and the results have been most satisfying to all concerned. Undoubtedly the Bankhead project is much the better because of the visitation of the young fraternity members from Georgia Tech, and the men themselves are enjoying a warm feeling of accomplishment that accompanies a good job well done.

GOOD RELATIONS Such examples of helpful activity on the part of college fraternity men will tend to strengthen public regard for these organizations which, in the past, have been more concerned in their playful moments with destructive frivolity than constructive achievement.

The college fraternity, with its energies properly channeled, can be a tremendous force for good in any community where it exists and it seems a good symptom that the young men are taking this lesson to heart. But the destruction of property, trespass on the rights of others and corporal punishment of members never did anyone any good and should be abandoned, as the present trend seems to indicate.

In recent years there have been several notable examples of members of individual fraternities or inter-fraternity groups abandoning their former practices in favor of helpfulness towards others. The action of the Tech Inter-Fraternity Council brings the whole matter into focus again and causes oldsters, who in their undergraduate days participated in hellish projects that were of no use whatsoever, to stop and wonder if maybe the young of today haven't got more sense than their elders had at a comparable age.

So here's a salute to college fraternity men everywhere, and particularly those at Georgia Tech, who are doing more for themselves and their secret societies by observing "Help Week" than they ever did by participating in "Hell Week."

What does Atomic Energy really mean to you?

Dramatic new developments in medicine, agriculture, and industry promise long-time benefits for us all Scientists-have long known that the secret core of the atom concealed vast stores of concentrated energy. Evidence that man had unlocked the secret came with the atomic bomb.

Then came the task of developing methods to release this unbounded energv slowly, gradually, in ways of lasting benefit to all of us.

ISOTOPES AN EXAMPLE—When uranium atoms are split they emit a barrage of highly active particles. Certain chemicals placed in this barrage become radioactive and shoot off particles from themselves. Substances thus treated are called radioactive isotopes.

When these chemicals are made radioactive their paths can be traced through plants and animals, showing the organs they affect. This may increase our understanding of the processes of life itself.

FUTURE UNLIMITED—Atomic energy is also proving useful in industrial research and production. It promises to be even more valuable, however, in providing concentrated power for transportation, home, and industry.

UCC's Trade-marked SYNTHETIC ORGANIC CHEMICALS
