LAWYER-ENGINEER RIVALRY ENSUES: Lawyers Attempt To Find Hidden 8-Foot Slide Rule s Suspense will run high this week as the lawyers attempt to find the eight foot slide rule that engineers have hidden. Rivalry for possession of the slide rule developed on campus many years ago when law class- rooms were located in Haven Hall. Guarding one' entrance to the diagonal while engineers held the other side, lawyers would arouse the engineers' anger by parking a car in the middle of engine arch and letting the air out of the tires. For revenge, the engineers would form a human chain across the en- gine arch, preventing the barris- ters from reaching their class- rooms. Rule Stolen In 1921, law students stole the eight foot slide rule which is held sentimentally by engineers. In retaliation, the engineers in- vaded Crease Ball with tear gas bombs and cut the electric cur- rent. Ever since the dance's success depended on whether the lawyers wereable to find the hidden slide rule before the dance. Two years ago, engineers had kept two rules hidden and they were triumphant decorations for the dance. Unfortunately, one was destroyed when about 30 "legal" men invaded the Ball. At this time, Prof. H. Meneffe of the Engi- neering Department had his ankle broken. Kenney To Play. Last year's theme was "Spring Prelude." Mel Sachs and his or- chestra provided music for the dance. The Slide Rule Ball which was formerly sponsored by the Michi- gan Technic, the Engineering School magazine is being spon- sored this year by the Engineering Council. This year's dance will be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. on March 19 in thefLeague Ballroom. It will be semi-formal. Don Kenney and his orchestra will provide music for the dance. Tickets which went on sale last week can be bought from engineer- ing students in the Engine Arch. Tickets for the Slide Rule Ball will be priced at $2.50 a couple. Fantasies will come to life Sat- urday night, as junior dental stu- dents present their annual Odonto Ball in honor of the senior den- tistry class. The dance will be presented in the Union Ballroom from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. and is formal. James Gilmarten, a senior in Dental School will provide music for dancing.

A movie, a takeoff on the Ed Sul- livan show, will also be shown. The theme of the dance is fan- tasy and the, ballroom will be dec- orated with fairyland characters such as Cinderella, St. George and the Dragon and Jack and the Beanstalk. Mobiles stressing the fantastic as well as futuristic design will hang from the walls. , Favors To Be Given Various fairyland scenes will be connected with streaming ribbons of different hues.

Young engineer is responsible 'for design analysis of $3,000,000 turbine-ogenerators The average large steam turbine-generator costs $3,000,000 and takes two years to build. It is one of the biggest pieces of electrical equipment made. Yet its thousands of parts are put together as carefully as a fine watch. Even a small change in design can affect the stresses and vibration of the turbine, and the way it performs. At General Electrioc several men share the responsibility of pre- dicting those effects before the turbine is built. One of them is 29-year-old E. E. Zwicky, Jr. His job: analytical engineer Here's what Ted Zwicky does. He takes a proposed mechanical design feature, de- scribes it mathematically, breaks" it down into digestible bits, modifies it, and feeds it to electronic computers. (It may take two nmonths to set up a problem; the computers usually solve it in twenty minutes.) Then Zwicky takes the answers from the com- puters, translates and interprets them so they can be followed by design engineers. 23,000 college graduates at General Electric This is a responsible job.
