Engineers Formerly Celebrated Their Annual Day by Wearing Frock Coats and Tall Silk Hats
Picture an engineer wearing a frock coat, silk hut, glove or mountaineer if you think it can be done, and how you have somewhat of an idea of how the Marvintzs appear on their annual engineers' day some 13 years ago.
In this age the engineer's day is devoted chiefly to showing of the examples of the handwork of the members of the school and in displaying the accomplishments of engineers in many phases of activity in the world.
In 1914, however, the day apparently was one of much fom, many parades, bill games and tugs of war. An account of the celebration of that year portrays the fact that the date was May 5, and that parades, serranding the haws, and displaying an array of ridiculous garb that would put hobo day to shame occupied the engineers during the morning and ball games, which were made for the afternoon a memorable occasion for the campus well-wenders.
A story of the events of that year relates that the freshman engineers sponsored a huge float in the morning at the state fair. They wore a washing machine, and the sign
"Pearley Laundry Company. All greeness removed."
The attire referred to in the opening narograph was worn by the chemical engineers of the day. The account does not report whether or not they changed uniforms before playing ball in the afternoon or whether they wore a different uniform treated with silk hats, flopping frocks and multilated mountaches.
It is the opinion of some that the nine-quart hat, which was later adopted by the senior engineers for their work in the interior to the silk *suiarity* for such occasions as this, and that the present day leather jackets may have resulted from the fact that the wind and moisture are applied to all freely with the frock coats.
Today the engineers spend many long hours preparing machines, devices, manufactured displays of alphabetic characters, to form to entertain the students of the other schools of the University. In 1914 the chief basis for their entertainment seemed to be display of hurried musicals along with their technical work.
