Sigma Rho Tau
Is Speech Society
Sigma Rho Tau, engineering stump
speakers' society, carries on the de-
velopment of an active interest in
speech work in the College of Engi-
neering.
A branch of an intercollegiate
speaking society originally founded
here and now spreading to other
campuses, the organization promotes
public discussion and debate, and at-
tempts to bring about a closer bond
between the, applied scientistand the

Honorary Society
Coupling honor membership with
an attempt to better the work in the
College of Engineering, Vulcans, se-

its members from the senior engi-
neering classes in all departments of
the college.
Like its younger brother, Triangles,
the society tips prospective seniors
late in the spring, and completes its
selection of membership early the
following fall.
Intended to bind the leaders of
each senior class into an active group
for the advancement of the Univer-
sity and the College of Engineering,
Vulcans also serves to acquaint the
honor students from any one depart-
ment with the leading students in the
other fields.
Membership is determined on the
basis of participation in campus ac-

campus activities.
Like other engineering honor so-
cieties, Tau Beta Pi elects members
Air-Minded Group
Sponsors Activity
Four years ago air-minded engi-
neers founded the campus branch of
the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences
which promotes the application of
science in the development of air-
craft..
The group sponsors speakers who
have technicalhbackgrounds in avia-
tion and give the members an insight
into various phases of the field. Mem-
bership includes a subscription to the
institute's monthly magazine "The
Journal of the Aeronautical Sci-
ences."
Henry Fielding, '42E, is president
of the organization and can supply
additional information to anyone in-
terested in membership who phones

traffic engineering or related fields
are only a few of the advantages of-j
fered members of the Transportation
Club.
"Although the club has no national
affiliation its membership is large
and the opportunities for contact
with senior engineers and faculty
members are infinite," Robert Radke,
'42E, president of the club explained.
The membership is open to all
members of the civil engineering de-
partment who are interested in Traf-
fic engineering problems. Meetingsj
are announced regularly in The Daily
and freshmen are urged to attend,
Radke said.

What does she say about you?
You know a man doesn't have
to be handsome to please a woman. But one thing most women do re-
quire in men is a fresh, well-groomed appearance. To achieve this your
clothes, and especially your linen, should have expert care.
Contrary to what you may think, expert laundry service can be
obtained from the Ann Arbor Laundries at a very reasonable price.
