Dear '63 Graduates: In an enlightened democratic society, the obiect of education is to develop the ability to think clearly, to communicate intelligibly, to analyse logically, to decide intelligently, to iudge decently, and to act creatively. ·This aim reflects the trend towards general education which tends to leave specialized training to be undertaken after employment. It has been reported many times that more knowledge has been discovered in the past decade than in all the previous history of civilization and that the rate of discovery is accelerating. Obtaining a diploma is only one step on the way to a successful career. You must be prepared to co·ntinue your education by further study in order to keep abreast of the rapidly changing techniques in technology. I caution you to learn with enthusiasm more than you require to per·. form your role; to discipline your impulses in order to keep them from interfering with wise actions; to be willing in your work, menial or otherwise, to go beyond the minimum requirements. If you face life in this manner, many paths wi II open to you that have never been trodden before, and you wHI go ahead in the sure knowledge that you will achieve, within reason, your honest aims. You should not be satisfied with mediocrity. Set your sights high, then you will have the satisfaction. of achieving the promise that is within you. On behalf of the Institute, may I extend to you my congratulations and best wishes for your continued success. Sincerely,
D.H. Craighead, Principal.

EDITOR'S MESSAGE
A yearbook such as this one serves as a reminder of a passing year's achievements, whether they were individual or group enterprises. It represents these achievements both pictorially and literally. It also represents many long hours of hard work by a few individuals. believe, however, that the sense of achievement we feel when we view the finished product, more than compensates for our frustrations and anxieties in producing it. Words of "thanks" are more than due to the members of the yearbook staff. These words of "thanks" should be delivered to Mr. Armes for his many suggestions, to Jim Hurlburt for his photographic skills and knowledge, and to Bill Walker in the advertising department. I also want to thank Mr. Craighead and Martin Potter, past editor, for their invaluable assistance and numerous individuals who helped make copy. We would like to dedicate this yearbook to the graduating class who are leaving the Institute this year. We wish them every success in the future.

PRESIDENT'S REPORT
Once more we are faced with the close of another school year. To some, this will have been a year of frustration, to others, a year of hope. As President of your Students' Administrative Council, this has been a year of rewarding experience. To deal with students who someday will be colleagues and possibly employers, it has been a great privilege. I have enjoyed the comradeship offered by students and staff with whom many hours have been spent in organizing various events and committees for all tile students. I would like to express my personal "thank you" to Mr. 'Vic' Whatton for his encouragement and sound advice as honorary president of the Students' Administrative Council. To Mr. S. Mitminger, a solid voice in student affairs, I would like also to express thanks. From Mr. Mitminger, honorary Treasurer of the Students' Administrative Council, the council recei ved sound advice on matters of policy. This year I was very pleased to see that the student council representatives showed genuine interest in all the counci I meetings. The students should be proud of their representatives from the various classes in the Institute. My special "thank you" also goes out to the executive council. Without their willing advice and personal interest, the affairs of state could not have been executed as smoothly as they have been. Unfortunately, there has been no newspaper at the Institute this year. This has not been a neglected matter, but one which required careful planning and thought for the future. Next year will see a larger and more functional newspaper initiated under the guidance of a very resourceful editor-in-chief. With the support of the students, this paper should be the representative voice of the student body. This year saw the introduction of a course unique to this Institute. This, the Industrial and Business Management Technology course, is the newest technology, but far from the smallest. With less than a year gone by, these students have already formed a club. I wish the students of this course much success in the coming years. Next year wi II see the beginning of yet another course new to the Hamilton Institute of Technology. This will be the Electrical course revamped to the recommendations of industry. Good Luck, to the newly instituted Automation and Control Technology. Something new was tried this year and I am sure everyone will remember the Ice-Hits '63. This was a very successful venture put on by the Students' Administrative Council to encourage comradeship between the students on a l'arge scale. I hope that the new counci I wi II endeavour to organize more events such as this. For those students of the graduating classes, may I say 'Good Luck' in their future careers. To the undergraduates, 'keep plugging' is probably all the advice necessary. A. Arnold, President, Students' Administrative Council.

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 eighteen million, while the number of Stelco employees has, in the same period of time, grown from five thousand to almost sixteen thousand. As Canoda 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.

THE CLASSICAL MUSIC ClUB While not the most popular in view of numbers- people have the deplorable habit of thinking that anyone who likes classical music is a bit "queer"- the Classical Music Club has, since its formation, proved to be extremely popular from the point of view of good times. Formed in 1960-61, it has met on the average of once a month during term at the homes of its various members, for evenings which have combined a planned programme of recordings with conversation, food and good fellowship. Since about half its members are students and half staff, the club has also provided a common meeting ground on which school affairs can be aired both from the point of view of the student and from that of staff; indeed, many improvement in student-staff relationships at the institute have been the direct result of the club's meetings. The executive of the club regrets only, that more students do not participate in the club's affairs. At the present time, the club is building its own record collection, a collection which it hopes, if the club's membership can be increased, will in time be unique. Besides this, the club subscribes annually to the Hamilton Symphony Orchestra and distributes tickets for the performances of this orchestra among its members. Music in any form has always had universal appeal. Classical music is but one expression of man's creative spirit. The members of the Classical Music Club, like music-lovers everywhere, are fortunate indeed, to be able to share in the creative spiri't of a Bach or a Beethoven; and, if the spirit of these great men can draw the club members together, year after year, to provide but a single element in the formation of a strong school spirit; a single element in the development of better human relations, the club which can achieve such results must, in time, become an integral part of the life of H.I.T. Nor does its "long hair" quality in any way detract from jazz or the lovers of jazz; indeed, the better jazz is often included in its programmes. The club's sole inspiration is the love of good music: any good music; its sole object, to help as many students and staff as possible to appreciate good music, be it Bach or Gershwin; its sole pleasure, to offer to student or staff, the hand of good fellowship.
, ELECTRONICS CLUB
Without doubt the biggest event of the 1963 school year was the Electronics Club's admission into the Institute of Radio Engineers (now the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) as a Student Associate Branch. Although this affiliation had immediate effects, its importance will be increasingly apparent as enrollment in the electronics course grows and academic standards are raised. The February Smoker featured Mr. T. Wilson (H.I.T. graduate of 1960) of Syntron (Canad.a) Ltd. speaking on the industrial application of selenium and silicon rectifiers. The growing importance of such rectifiers certainly made Mr. Wilson's subject interesting from the technologist's point of view. The final completion of the Westinghouse one kilowatt radio transmitter was a h-appy and long-awaited event. Used by the amateur radio operators in the Club, this transmitter put Station YE3HIT ("High Intensity Transmitter"?) on the map in a radio frequency sort of way.
In particular, Bob Yager is to be thanked for the
many hours he spent on this transmitter during the last two years. The efforts of Jim Hardy and others helped the Club to enter the space age by building radio equipment to monitor radio signals from some of the many artificial earth satellites which now probe the earth's space environment. Other events of the year included the "en masse" building of hi-fi amplifiers by some club members, and experimenta¡l "piping" of music into the Common Room during some of the lunch hours. I should like to thank Mr. G.L. Pal, our staff advisor and head of the Electronics Department, and all the other faculty members who helped us with our many problems. Martin H. Potter, Chairman
MECHANICAL SOCIETY
"Should we scrap it or improve it?" This was the question confronting the Mechanical Society as it headed into another year of activities. The object in question was, of course, the Society's "Hovercraft." With the help of Aerometal Magnesium Products and Firestone of Canada, organizations which were kind enough to donate materials to the Society, we embarked on the task of re-designing the craft so that it would really fly. We hope to have it in the air by Spring.
This was not the only pro ject on which the Society members worked. They also designed and built an Engine Test Bed that not only benefitted the members by providing design experience, but will also benefit future H.I.T. students and enable them to go a step further into the study of Thermodynamics.
Throughout the year the members have co-operated with the Institute staff which has been kind enough to allow the members to use school time to take a trip to McKinnon Industries in St. Catharines. The whole mechanical department took part in this worthwhile tour. During the latter part of the year the Society organized a smoker in conjunction with A.S. T.M. E. which dealt with practical problems encountered in industry. Throughout the year, the Society has shown various film which pertained to studies related to Mechanical Technology . Again, Society activities were encouraged by full support from our Department's faculty. All members of the Mechanical Society wish to express their thanks to Mr. A. Gregson, and Mr. A. Mills for the time and advice which they have given the Society throughout the years. Sam lorfida, liMA, Secretary-Treasurer, Mechanical Society.
TEXTILE SOCIETY The scholastic year of 1962-63 has seen the formation and operation of one of the most successful Textile Societies in the history of the Hamilton Institute of Technology. The main objectives of the Society were to develop the practical and theoretical knowledge of its members and to foster among them further interest in the field of texti Ies. At the bi-monthly meetings, the members discussed the business aspects of the Society after which they were treated to movies on various aspects of the Textile industry. Under the guidance of the Society's faculty advisor, Mr. N.H. Pomfret, the executive of the Society carefully selected movies, provided by industry, which would prove the most interesting and valuable to the members. To supplement the knowledge gained from these meetings, the Textile Society adopted a practical project. This consisted of the knitting and dyeing of scarves and socks for the faculty members and the members of the Society. Although many difficulties were encountered, in carrying out the Society's project, it was highly successful in that it provided useful knowledge and experience for the members. The Society's executive also arranged several mill visits to further the Society's objectives of gaining experience and knowledge for its members. The success of the 1962-63 Textile Society is due largely to the efforts of Mr. Pomfret and the Society's executive. The executive, comprised of Ted Burbidge as President, Dave Tucker as Vice-President, and Dan Bowden as Secretary- Treasurer, deserves a great deal of credit, for through their enthusiasm and perseverance, the Textile Society of the Hamilton Institute of Technology flourished in 1962-63.
MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATION The Management Technology Association is a newly formed group in the Institute. It has been set up by the students of the Industrial and Business Management Technology with the help of Mr. Mitminger, the Course Director. We have also had most useful help and advice from Mr. Partridge, Mr. Jamieson, and of course, Mr. Craighead. The constitution .w as devised and accepted shortly after the beginning of the school year. It states that the organization is designed to stimulate interest in the scientific management of business and industry while offering a social outlet to its members . One of the unique features of the organization is that it has three complete executives each year, elected in November, January and March. This is to make it possible for a large number of members to hold a responsible elective position at some time during the year. No sooner had the constitution been passed, than did the Association set out on a dazzling first year of activities. It began with two trips to Toronto to see, first, the Business Machine Show which helped acquaint us with the tools that we may be using in the future, and second, to the Materials Handling exhibit that also dealt with a subject in which we are vitally interested. Our next important trip was a tour through Stelco where we learned a great deal about the manufacture of iron and steel. This trip was followed by a most interesting trip to Dofasco. Since then we have been on another tour at Stelco to their Industrial Engineering department, a trip which included I uncheon for the group. Before the end of the school year, we shall have completed another four plant tours. TheM. T.A. is proud of its record of "firsts" among the other clubs at the school. Before the others had had time to organize, we had two smokers under our belt. The first was on automation featuring Mr. Bedford of the Electrical Department who gave a most interesting talk. The second was on plant safety and our speaker was Mr. Brown of the Construction Safety Association. Another first was the M.T.A. stag which was a "roaring" success as can be verified by certain members of the staff. The Institute has certainly not heard the last of theM. T.A. and we members feel that 1962 has only been an indication of even better years to come. W.S. T erryberry, Past President.

The Hamilton Institute of Technology Ski Club "schussed" into a successful season for '63. The Club, with loaded ski racks, snow-plowed to Collingwood for the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh of January to enjoy a thrilling two days of exceflent skiing on the slopes of Devils Glen and Georgian Peaks. The next weekend the Club took part in the Ontario Intercollegiate Athletic Association Ski Meet at the Mansfield Ski-Ways. The School was represented by Dave Batzold, Mike Blair, Ted Burbidge, Ron McDougall, Les Oslach and Reg Loraine. After a week's interlude, the Club headed south of the border to Ellicotteville for their annual "Openubergurgl e." This year, the Club had a full calendar of fun-filled weekends and hopes to offer even more for '64.
