School of Engineering Given Leverage Motor for Testing Purposes
A. L. Powell Power Company Donates New Type Engine for Experiments
A Powell leverage motor, a new type of engine, has been given to the school of Engineering by the A. L. Powell Power Company of Oklahoma
tory at Quipao for testing experiments. The motor will be installed in the mechanical laboratory and will operate as a permanent possession of the school.
Since the manufacturing company has not yet developed their laboratories to such an extent that they can thoroughly conduct all the necessary experiments in arrangement with Dean P. F. Walker whereby the engine can be adequately tested here. Tern testes, bone power run tests, and the measurement of compression are some of the examinations that will be undertaken by the students.
Homer H. Duto, *c26*, and M. C. Huffman, *c26*, will use the tests on this new model for their study, it was announced today by Dean Walker. The Powell company has promised their hearty co-operation in conducting the tests, and has agreed to meet the expenses of the experiment. The thesis, written by Duchat Huffman, will probably be performed of their study, will probably be perished by the company to be used in their publicity campaigns.
"Practical work we will be com- pressed as soon as the engine can be im- lained after its arrival," said tha- dean.
The motor will be shipped here at once with all expenses paid, it was stated in a letter received by Dean Walker.
New Class Is Organized
Course Is Offered at Haskell by Extension Division
A new three-hour class in educational psychology which offers credit in the School of Education and which is sponsored by the extension division of the University, was started this morning at Haskell Institute.
Mr. Thomas J. Smart, extension class instructor, will have charge of the course which is in the first of a two-day course to be offered by the department.
The class meets on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and University credit will be given those students who meet proper requirements. Many however, are not required information that can be obtained and will be unable to apply the work toward a degree, according to Guy V Keeler, of the extension department.

The feature of the Rotary lancehee next monday will be an address given by Prof. F. M. Dawson of the School of engineering on his native island, and will follow the reading by a letter from a member of the Halifax Rotary.
Future Teachers Receive Pointers About Profession
Graduates of University
Excellently Prepared,
Says Schwegler
in Address
Between 250 and 300 prospective teachers heard the two addresses given by Dean R. A. Schwegler and Prof. W. H. Johnson in the Chemistry lecture hall on Monday afternoon, on concerns concerning the teaching profession.
"If any group looks forward especially to teaching with success," he said, "that group should be from the class of the best." Their preparation is of the best.
Dean Schwegler spoke first. His address was primarily about the teachers of today and the prevalent ideas that people have concerning the instructors that are just embarking into the teaching profession.
Teaching Ideas Have Changed
"The old idea that all a teacher had to do was to see that her pupil still, while information being given out in certain definite doses, has disappeared," he continued, "and the new idea has appeared which is that education requirement should be stimulate, and encourage the education of the students." Dean Schweiger said that he hoped each man and woman would go out with high ideals for their teaching profession. He soiled that teaching should not be considered as a pay buck but as a civilization going up.
In concluding his speech, Mr Schweigel put especial stress on the fact that most school boards are ultra-conservative and that they are especially concerned in the applicant's spelling, English, and punctuation in the letter in which an application is made.
Explain Appointment Methods
Professor Johnson's speech dealt primarily with the method of enrolling into the teacher's appointment bureau though he also spoke of other topics of interest to the future teachers.
Exalains Appointment Methods
He exhibited the forms that applicants have to fill out and indicated their preferred jobs. The forms should have three copies of these forms so application could be made for three different jobs at the same time. If the applicant will be obtained from the applicant
himself, from two faculty members of his minor department, two members of his minor department, two members of his minor department, and from some of his naenministries.
"The territory that the Board serves is considerably larger than it has been in former years, and the reason for this is that competition, has become unusually strong and not all of the teachers positions as was formerly the case."
Professor Johnson concluded his address by stressing the fact that all students should be given a possible and that they should keep the Burcain informed about their surety.
Plans for a "Sneak day" for all students of the School of Engineering were made at a recent meeting, executive Dean McGeez, president of the school.

Men's Rifle Team Wins Match

Metal Airship May Become Chief Means of First-Class Trave
Airplane Will Operate on Short Routes, Detroit Engineer Calculates
(Science Service)
Detroit, Feb. 9.-Great ships of the air, covered with shiny durable metal panels, are instructed to the Society of Automotive Engineers by Ralph H. Iupon of the Aircraft Development Corporation, an aerospace possible aircraft, metallic airplane.
"The solution of commercial airship design today lies in a fundamental mental change in the materials of construction," he said in urging that the present type of metal-analed airship be modernized into a craft that through use of thin metal gas will be low in uplimp and first cost.
In contract to off-hand opinions, calculations show that there will be an actual saving in weight of the airship if the fabric hull is replaced by one made of daralumu, an aluminum used in the framework of dirigibles.
The lighter-than-air airship will b be the long distance air vessel of the future, while the heavier-than-air airplane will operate most often. Humpney F, Parker told the engineers. Yet in many cases the swiffer and more expensive airplane will be used in preference to the airship for the same purpose and transportation redhooks are often used in preference to water transport.
The all-metal airship, Mr. Upson said, will be durable and able to stand all sorts of weather. It will be independent of hangers except for "dry-dock" purposes, just as an ocean ship houses itself except when laid up for repair or maintenance. The airship can be used as the banyard gas in the new type airship, for the metal hull will be a fireproof structure and as safe as a gasoline tank against static fire. The metal airship is destined, Mr. Upson believes, to become the commercial airship that substantially all first-class passengers, all mail, all expires on the longer routes over land and sea.
