HISTORICAL SKETCH
After the second world war it became evident that Canada's continued economic growth would depend in part upon the number of technically trained persons in various industries . Following the example provided by the establishment of the Provincial Institute of Mining in Haileybury, Ontario, the Federation of Textile Technical Associations of Canada, supported by the Primary Textiles Educational Committee and working through the Board of Education for the City of Hamilton, formed a committee to petition the Provincial Government to open a Textile Institute in Hamilton. The petition was strongly endorsed and supported by the leading textile firms and associations . The Provincial Government authorized the establishment of the Provincial Institute of Textiles on September 1, 1946, and made available the building at 196 Wentworth Street, North, formerly occupied by the Ontario Training College for Technical Teachers. Evening classes were started in September, 1946, and full time three-year diploma courses in September, 1947. The Institute continues to prepare young men for careers in textiles and the name remains inscribed above the main entrance to the building. In 1956 to alleviate the overcrowding in the engineering technology courses at the Ryerson Institute of Technology in Toronto, and to make the technological programme available to as many interested students as possible, the Department of Education laid plans to establish Institutes in other cities of the Province. As a result of the support of the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce and of the Hamilton Board of Education, the Provincial Institute of Textiles became the Hamilton Institute of Technology. with courses in electrical, electronic and mechanical technologies added to the curriculum. The first students were enrolled in these courses in September 1957. In 1958 . with the introduction of a new first year programme, the Institute enrolled students in all the engineering technology courses offered by other Provincial Institutes with the provisions for continuance in second and third years shown in the programmes of study.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL An old Italian Proverb states, "The world steps aside to let any man pass who knows whither he is going." The solemnity of graduation symbolizes the end of formal preparation: now is the time for energetic doing, if the world is going to step aside. Knowledge gained during the past three years must be translated into direct action. Graduation is a very special day. It is like the Golden Milestone set up in the Roman Forum by Augustus: from it, all roads lead to everywhere. But what roads lead to success and how does one go about the business of reaching this success? First, fix your purpose! The sense of purpose, which we shall call ambition, is no mysterious gift. It is imagination playing with future possibilities and suggesting how to overcome the obstacles that lie beyond the Golden Milestone. Our ambition should be big enough to challenge our powers, but should be tempered to prevent the distortion of our sense of purpose. Now get started! Doing at once what there is to do inevitably increases the the probability of success. While imagination may illuminate the road into the future, we must do now what lies clearly at hand. It has been said of a successful man that he stumbled on a good idea . There may be some truth in the comment, but the whole truth is that the moment of inspiration would not have come to him without preparation. Pasteur wrote, "Chance favours only the prepared mind." Time does not pause for our delays. It waits for nothing before relentlessly moving on to the next hour. If you doubt your ability, get busy and test it. A prominent man gave this advice to a graduate, "Do the wise thing if you know what it is, but in any event, do something- the wisest thing you know." Build guard rails by using your own experiences and those of others! Much has been said about learning by experience, a stern but effective teacher, who deals in hard personal lessons . Such lessons may be avoided in part by studying the experiences of others. It is an unhappy motorist who becomes an expert driver by participation in highway accidents. The intuition prompting the decisions and action of successtul men is the sum total of the memories of previous experiences - their own and those of others which can be associated in a meaningful way with the present situation. There will be discouragements . You must remember to think of any failure only as a detour on the road to success . Life seldom gives awards beyond the direct ratio of exertion. Success comes only when you are prepared to take that extra step beyond the normal call of duty. Finally, pave the road with enthusiasm! Neither the extent of the knowledge you have gained, nor the capacity of your talent is as vital as your driving power. Enthusiasm is the catalyst, which, along with interest and ambition, converts half-hearted effort into real accomplishments, adding zest to life. You must constantly use the knowledge gathered in the classroom, a knowledge conditioned by personal experience. Apply this knowledge with enthusiasm in a form which will fit each new day's changed enviroment. Then you will pass along to the next milestone assured that this road leads to success. D. H. Craighead

EDITORIAL
There is a time in the life of every person when he finds that he has reached another milestone. Then he wants to pause for awhile, to rest and to think over what he has accomplished on the way, and to estimate his resources for the future. The Yearbook committee hopes that the 1960-61 edition of the Yearbook may serve as a gentle reminder of the many events which occurred over the past year at the Hamilton Institute of Technology. The collection of the events and faces is a complex task requiring the time, effort, co-operation and enthusiasm of numerous people without whose help this Yearbook would never have reached print. In particular, the Photography Club is to be credited with the professional job done on all the pictures used in this Yearbook. It is to the graduates that this Yearbook is dedicated - may your future endeavours be successful ; to the undergraduates are dedicated the sweat and tears with which it was produced may you also reach the milestone of graduation.

PRESIDENT'S REPORT
Now that the Institute has graduates of the electrical, electronic and mechanical courses employed in industry, we undergraduates have taken on a new air of establishment; of coming of age. Last year saw the formation of a large number of student clubs and societies, along with a tremendous development of athletic activities; this year, student activity has been even more pronounced . Among other innovations, a Rocket Club has been formed, a club which is creating an interesting reputation. The Mecanical Club has begun, under the direction of Don Ross, the construction of a ho¡: ercraft, the first major project to be undertaken by any of our clubs. For the first time the S.A .C. has provide::! a free medical examination for all students. For the first time, also, a cheer contest, followed by a schco!-song contest has been initiated, in a search for material which will inspire our athletes and keep school spirit al ive. Both of these contests have aroused a gratifying interest among our students. A very notable accomplishment perhaps, has been the revival of variety night activities, with a Glee Club . under the direction of Mr. E. Berry, director of the Westinghouse Male Chorus, a male chorus line, now hard at work, and a play, to be presented by our Theatre Guild . We hope that the variety night may prove a huge success . Another "first" is our school paper, which should turn out to be an item of lasting interest at H.I .T. " Thank you's" are in order for those first and second year students whose initiative has made the paper possible.
This past September, aga in for the first time , the Students' Council set up an information service at the Institute to welcome our freshmen with information regarding student clubs, societies and other activities. A major feature of the service was a housing directory designed to get the out-of-town students comfortably located as soon as possible. The most important "first," perhaps . has been the establishment of communication with the Alumni Association, heretofore confined to graduates of textile technoloqy. The result has been the formation of an Alumni Association which will represent the Institute in its several branches; electrical , electronic, mechanical and textile technologies. We are looking forward, as we grow, to a very active Alumni Association, one which will foster, not only a strong bond between graduate and undergraduate, but also the prestige of the Institute and its activities. Good luck to the hard working fellows who are doing so much to make this association a success. I wish personally to t hank Mr. S. Mitminger, the honorary treasurer of the S.A.C. , and Mr. D. H. Craig head, the honorary chairman of t he Athletic Directorate, for their invaluable assistance and advice . without which the tasks of the S.A.C. would have been much more difficult. I would also like to welcome the incoming council of '61-'62, and . as I surrender to the new council our recently acquired gavel, my wish fo r our new governing body will be. "May you have as much happi ness in servinq our Students' Association as have the present council and myself."

SOCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The Second Vice President, Ed Miksza, headed the social committee this year with Mike Papper as social convenor and Dave Maxin, Ken Sano, Paul Tymchuk and Vic Karpavicius representing the student body. The annual "Frosh Hop" initiated the social calendar of the year. This was the freshmen 's "get acquainted" evening and, I might add, the best supported dance of the season . Prior to this dance, the freshmen were subjected to three days of public mockery (HELL!). Violators of the Initiation Act were brought before a Kangaroo Court (Senior biased, of course) where they were tried and punished. Saturday, November 7, 1960, marked the FIRST Alumni Association reunion of Engineering Technologists in Hamilton. 1960 ended on a happy note with the announcement of H.I.T. 's of '61, the Institute's annual Variety Night. Mr. W . V. Whatton is to be commended for reviving the interest of the students in this rewarding adventure into the world of costumes and makeup. Graduotion ceremonies will take place in the Crystal Ballroom of the Royal ¡ Con naught Hotel on May 12, 1961. Convocation exercises wi II be held in tr.e afternoon; the graduation banquet and dance in the evening. Throughout the year the social committee has had to call upon various members of the Institute to assist them in the task of preparing for the many social functions held during the year. At this time I would like to thank ail those who freely gave of their time and energy when called upon to do so and in this way helped to make this past year at H.I.T. a memorable one.

FOOTBALL GAMES - RESUME
Coach J . Kurtzman a ¡n d his assistant J. Marko started the season off right this year with practice on the first day of registration, determined to mould the year-old squad into a swift and powerful unit worthy to be called the HAWKS. The team rallied around the tri-captains Gary Haughton, Stan Gryba and Peter Hart and two weeks later came up against the Ryerson Rams at McMaster field . The more experienced Rams quickly ran up the score 20-0 with three touchdowns and two converts in the first half of the game but the Hawks kept the second half scoreless as they put the rush on the Rams. With 18 seconds left in the game Hawk quarterback Peter Hart's wings grew strong and he tossed perfect passes to Arnold who went for 25 yards and to Thompson who fleetfooted his way to H.I.T.'s first touchdown of the season. The final score ended 20-¡6 with H.I.T. looking forward to a game with Ridley College in St. Catherines . One of the Highlights of the game was the Hawks ability to stand off a Ram assault with three downs on the five yard line. The game with Ridley ended 19-7 with Ridley scoring in the first half and H.I .T. in the second half. Knebel got the touchdown and Thompson made an easy convert as the game ended. At Kingston the Hawks fought the R.M.C. 11 's to a close 13-7 but couldn't cross the line for the major which would tie the game. Peter Hart got the touchdown and Thompson converted, outscoring R.M.C. in the second half. The return game with R.M.C. 11's at the H.A.A.A. grounds in Hamilton was the first annual homecoming football game held by H.I.T. R.M .C. clinched the two game series 2-0 in a hard-fought wellplayed match. In the first quarter Thompson missed a field goal but in the second quarter Hart scored
48
on a keeper play and Thompson was good for the convert. R.M.C.'s Fogg skirted the end and Dumbrille made the convert and the second half ended with the score 7-7. Grenwood made an end run and drove 20 yards in the third quarter for R.M.C's second major and McCavera scored the winning touchdown on a 35 yard end run pass play that caught H.I.T.'s defence down. In the fourth quarter H.I.T. rallied and Arnold went for the touchdown on a crashing 2 yard dive. Th ompson converted. The game ended 19-14 with H.I.T. pressing deep into enemy territory trying hard for the game-winning T.D. but time ran out on them. During the game , quarterback Peter Hart suffered a dislocated shoulder and there were several other injuries which left H.I.T. at a disadvantage in th e next scheduled game with Appleby College in Oakville . Tarnawsky led the team well in his first time at quarterback but his timing was off and the team could not generate on offence. The game ended with Appleby outrunn in g us by a score of 27-0 to end the season for another year . Throughout the season, Hart's generalship on the field made the games more exciting and Keith Brain's runs up the centre were spectacular. Moore's downfield blocking was exceptional. On defence, Haughton's crashing tackles gave the opposition plenty to worry about while the line of Kabelin, Kubica, Gryba and Oakes helped keep the score down and made many goal line stands. The caliber of the team was much improved over last year. This was evident in the R.M.C. games. However, the H.I.T. Hawks is a comparatively young team (baby Hawks) and it needs a little more time to grow. Coach Kurtzman has hopes for the formation of a league for competition in 1961. GOOD LUCK FELLOWS.

HOCKEY HI LITES Through the efforts of Mr. J. Kurtzman the Ontario Training College Conference was formed to provide our team with a competitive hockey league. London Teachers ' College, Western Ontario Institute of Technology, Hamilton Teachers' College, and Hamilton Institute of Technology were represented in the four team loop . . Our first league game saw the Hawks defeated by H.T.C. with a score of 4-2. H .T.C. showed superior positional play in the second period but the Hawks outshot them 16-4 in the first period . Capitano, Moir and Kulawic tried hard to beat the t ime in the fast first period, but to no avail. In Windsor, for the second league game, the Hawks trampled the Western Ontario Institute of Technology. The H.I.T. pucksters displayed great team-work in passing and the formation of plays and Goalie Ascott made many exceptional saves. Hawk scorers were Hart with 2 and Haluka, Moit and Kulawic with one goal each . At London, H.I.T. lost a close game to London Teachers ' College and the final score was 4-3. The Hawks scored two of their goals with men resting in the penalty box and the penalty st udded affair ended our chance to capture league honours. Moir, Cote and Borsato were scorers. The Hawks have other league games to be played and are looking forward to revenge over past defeats. In exhibition play with local High Schools the Hawks were defeated 8- 1 by Westdale and 4-1 by Delta. They fared better in an exhibition series with St. David where the H.I.T. squad won one game after losing a close match to them. Royal Military College and H.I.T. will play a home and home series to close out another interesting hockey season.

STELCO
A nation's progress and wealth are linked strongly with its ability to produce basic industrial products. No product is more basic than steel, and hence no product has contributed more to Canada's progress and wealth than has Canadian steel. In past fifty years the Canadian population has grown from a little more than seven million to better than seventeen million . while the number of Stelco employees has, in the same period of time, grown from five thousand to almost fifteen thousand . As Canada grows, so does Stelco. Canada has become a land of great opportunities, and at Stelco there are great opportunities for young Canadians deserving careers in steel.

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER
HOW CAN WE HELP CANADA PROGRESS? This question has sparked the thinking of International Harvester Company of Canada, Limited for well over fifty years. Our answer - design, engineer and manufacture more product lines in Canada. This policy has led to increased use of Canada's rich resources in raw materials, manpower and skills . Many products previously imported are now made in Canada -for domestic use and for export. Hamiltonians have been among the first to benefit from this new policy of Canadian development while Canadian-built International trucks, construction equipment and farm machinery serve in practically every community in the land.
