Cagers To Play Creighton There
The Jayhawkers will play their first game away from home tonight against the Bluejays of Creighton university at Omaha.
Coach Phog Allen, Dick Hart, assistant coach, and Dean Nesmith, team trainer, left Sunday night with the 13-man squad for the Nebraska city and will return early Tuesday morning.
Tonight's encounter is the first of three road games for the Kansas team this week. Friday and Saturday nights they are scheduled to meet the Mustangs of Southern Methodist at Dallas.
Creighton opened its season with a 61-55 win over Buena Vista college but was swamped by Wichita 100-63. Iowa State also downed the Bluesiays 57-49.
Coach Duce Belford has only five returning lettermen but has filled his squad with several talented sophomores.
Bill Heyden, 6 feet 6-inch center, scored 223 points last season to be the second high man on the Creighton team and is back at the post again this year leading the scoring attack.
The traveling squad includes Bob Kenney, Bill Lienhard, Clyde Lovellette, Bill Hougland, Dean Kelley, LaVennes Squires, Everett Dye, Weston Johnson, Allen Kelley, B. H. Born, Larry Davenport, Bill Heitholt, and Dean Smith.

M.E.'s AT DU PONT [3]
Plant engineering and production supervision offer interesting careers for science graduates
In the past two issues of the Digest you've read of the broad opportunities that are offered mechanical engineers in research and development work at Du Pont.
This month let's look at opportunities for men interested in any of the branches of plant engineering such as maintenance, power, design and construction—or in production supervision.
Efficient maintenance is an important cost factor in the continuous processes of a modern chemical industry. The M.E. is called upon to diagnose troubles, work out corrective measures, and supervise repairs.
Frequently he increases production by developing preventive maintenance measures. So vital is this work that in one division of the Company, 500 men of all crafts, along with a routine maintenance group, spend almost all their time on it.
One example of the problems facing Du Pont engineers is the maintenance of pumps made to tolerances of 0.0001" and operating at pressures up to 6000 p.s.i.
A FIREMAN adjusts lowers for the proper combustion of pulverized coal. Blown into furnace through pipes, it burns at 2500°F.
In power work, also, problems requiring application of mechanical engineering principles arise. For instance, a metal required in one chemical process is melted at $ 800^{\circ} \mathrm{F}. $ by immersion heaters fired by butane, which is expensive. Conversion to fuel oil presented the problem of complete combustion in the immersion chamber. Du Pont M.E.'s redesigned the heaters so combustion

could be complete and the hot gases recycled in water to use all the available heat.
In design and construction of chemical plants, mechanical engineering again is of major importance because of the wide variety of plants built and intricacy of their equipment. Engineers collect basic data, design and select equipment. They also supervise many steps of construction until the plant is operating.
E. SPEELMAN, JR., B.S.M.E., M.M.E., Ohio State '51, and D.A. Smith, B.S.M.E., Purdue '40, discuss a change in feed wheel design of nylon spinning machine.
Production supervision attracts many mechanical engineers. Men who have the ability and interest usually move into it by one or two routes: they acquire background on all stages of a plant's operations by helping design the plant, or by operating on the job.

Sometimes students of mechanicalengineering feel that in a chemical company they will be overshadowed by chemical personnel. This is not the case at Du Pont. Here, hundreds of administrators and supervisors, up to the rank of vice-president, started as M.E.'s.
Opportunities for men and women with many types of training are described in the 40-page brochure "The Du Pont Company and the College Graduate." For your free copy, address 2521 Nemours Bldg., Wilmington, Del.
