The annual June Reunion and Spring Homecoming will get under way Saturday, June 9, and run through Wednesday, June l3. All 25th anniversary graduates in particular will want to attend the Silver Anniversary Reunion held in their honor.

Athletes to be Feted Plans are under way to honor Pitt's athletes at the biggest All-Sports Ban- quet ever staged at the University of Pittsburgh. The date is April 30 and the place is the Georgian and Georgian Terrace Rooms of the Hotel Webster Hall. All alumni and Pitt rooters in gen- eral are invited to attend. For complete details write to either the Athletic De- partment or the General Alumni Asso- ciation, University of Pittsburgh, Pitts- burgh 13, Pa. The impressive record that the Uni- .versity’s athletes have rolled up this year has moved a great many alumni to make a special effort to show the boys how strongly the Pitt family is be- hind them. In addition to the fine show- ing made by the football team culmi- nating in a well-played Sugar Bowl game, University athletes have distin- guished themselves, both individually and as a group, in basketball, wres- tling, swimming, track, cross-country, soccer, squash, gymnastics, baseball, golf, tennis, and rifle. . The April banquet will give ever - one who has cheered the Pitt teams from the sidelines an opportunity to meet the boys and their coaches and to congratulate them on a year that many fans are already calling, "one of the best Pitt has ever had." Pm BUYS SCHENLEY A As a climax to a move which has al- ready added the Schenley Park Apartments to the campus of the University of Pitts- burgh, it was announced on January 22 that the historic Schenley Park Hotel had been purchased by the University. The acquisition of the hotel property has completed plans for an unparalleled student housing and activity center which will be an integral part of the Oakland campus. As a spokesman for the Univer- sity expresses it, the new additions, “ . . . will change the entire character of the University for years to come." The initial announcement of Pitt own- ership of the Schenley properties came on Dec. 23, 1955, when the University re- ported that it had purchased the Schenley Park Apartments. =I it it PLANS FOR THE conversion of the seven unit apartment were announced early in January. A surprise move, however, was the news that the University has also ac- quired Hotel Schenley Park which had not _been mentioned in connection with the original purchase. Nevertheless, it is not expected that the acquisition of the hotel will substantially alter the plans for the conversion of the apartment buildings. The completion of the Schenley pur- chases has opened the way toward an aca- demic living center on a scale and with facilities unique on American campuses. “It puts us twenty years ahead of our hous- ing problem," said one University official. it 1|! , =I= PURCHASE PRICE of the hotel is report- ed as $1,500,000 plus the transfer of the Ellsworth Center property, valued at $300,- 000, to the former hotel owners. At the time of the apartment purchase, Dr. Alan M. Scaife, president of the Board of Trustees, announced that two anony- mous donors had pledged gifts amounting to $450,000 toward the cost of adapting the apartments to student use. In explaining details by which the Uni- versity obtained the apartment, Dr. Scaife stated that all outstanding capital stock of The Schenley Park Apartments Company will be acquired at a nominal cost. In addi- tion, the University has assumed first and second mortgages totalling $3,000,000. The apartment units were built in 1924 at a TS., HOTEL cost of more than $4,500,000. # =l= =l= IT Is ESTIMATED that conversion of the seven apartment buildings for dormitory use will represent an expenditure of about $1,000,000. The latter cost will be financed entirely through the $450,000 available in gifts and from revenues that the Univer- sity will receive from the property. It was emphasized by the University that no funds would be transferred from administrative budgets to finance the con- version program nor would any fund-rais- ing effort be required for this purpose. The apartment property consists of seven building units including 1113 rooms divid- ed into 238 apartments. The hotel, which was opened in 1898, has a total of 217 rooms. The acquisition adds five more acres to the fourteen acres of the Univer- sity’s lower campus. 1! it It OCCUPANCY of the hotel property by personnel of the University has been sched- uled for Aug. 1, 1956.

The dinner, which will be held at 6:30 P.M. in the Georgian Ballroom of Hotel Webster Hall, is held each year to commemorate Charter Day at the Uni- versity. 3* II II! THE EXACT SUBJECT of Dr. Litchfie1d’s address has not yet been disclosed, but it is expected that he will speak on the role of the University in the Pittsburgh renais- sance, giving additional information on the broad plan announced on the occasion of his appointment last summer. At that time Dr. Litchfield said, . . we have now undertaken, ‘to make Pitt one of the world’s foremost universities.’ “With the tremendous strides of recent years to build upon, with the vitality of the Pittsburgh renaissance to inspire us, and with the devoted assistance of the great body of Pitt alumni, there is no reason why this cannot be accomplished.” Dr. James J. Lee, president of the Gen- eral Alumni Association, will preside at the dinner with Norman MacLeod, Uni- versity trustee, introducing Dr. Litchfield and Gus W. Wilde, chairman of the Alumni Giving Fund making the conclud- ing statements. Crawford New, Secy. Dr. Crawford Dr. Stanton C. Crawford, dean of the undergraduate college of arts and sciences, will become secretary of the University of Pittsburgh and dean of the faculties upon the retirement of Dr. John Weber, effec- tive July 1, 1956. In addition to serving as secretary Dr. Crawford will assume the newly created post of dean of the faculties in which he will act as chief educational staff officer to Chancellor Edward H. Litchfield. In this position he will serve as focal point for preparation and coordination of policy matters which the chancellor brings to the board of trustees, the chancellor's management committee, and the staff council.

I THE REMEMBRANCE FUND The Idea A number of active members of the'General Alumni Association have formed a University of Pittsburgh Remembrance Fund to be used to enhance the facilities of the Library to make possible additional Research, and to make available more aid for Scholarships. The Plan Those planning to use the Remembrance Fund should call or write the Alumni Oflice and state the name of the person to whom the acknowledgment should be sent as well as the occasion and the names of those making the con- tribution. Contributions in any amount will be welcomed and checks should be made payable to the University of Pittsburgh Remembrance Fund and sent to the office of the General Alumni Association, University of Pittsburgh, Pitts- burgh 13, Pennsylvania. On the same day that instructions are received the Alumni Office will mail to the person honored or to the family an appropriate card of acknowledgment with no mention, of course, of the amount of the contribution. On that same day also a letter will be mailed to the donor indicating that all instructions have been completed. The Ultimate Appreciation Your friends will appreciate your thoughtfulness, and the tangible assistance thus given will enable the University to continue to enrich the excellent Library, Research and Scholarship service to the community.

February, 1956 Schenley Conversion Plans Complete Occupancy Scheduled for I960 The University early in January revealed its schedule for gradual conversion of the Schenley Park Apartments into a compre- hensive dormitory center, before a special meeting of Apartment residents held at the recently acquired Schenley Park Hotel. University officials invited the residents to hear plans for use of the buildings, re- ceive information on the dates for conver- sion, lease arrangements, and other details. II: as at, RESIDENTS IN ALL but one unit will have from two years to four years before the University will close the units as apart- ment dwellings, according to Dr. Charles B.

Ed School Plans For Atlantic City The School of Education of the Univer- sity will take an active part in the conven- tion of the American Association of School Administrators to be held from Saturday, Feb. 18, until Thursday, Feb. 25, 1956, at Atlantic City, NJ. Headquarters for the Pittsburgh delega- tion will be the Traymore Hotel where the highlight of the Pitt program will be a luncheon scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 21, at 12:15 noon in the Rose Room. The Pitt headquarters at the hotel will open to receive visitors Saturday afternoon, Feb. 18, and remain open through Wed., Feb. 22. Exhibits, consisting of educational materials, surveys, and pictures will be displayed, and each visitor will be given an appropriate souvenir. Tickets at $3.50 each for Saturday's luncheon can be had from the office of the School of Education, 2717 Cathedral of Learning, Pittsburgh 13, Pa. Dr. William A. Yeager of the School of Education is Pitt's committee chairman. AAC Names Fitzgerald Dr. Rufus H. Fitzgerald, Chancellor Emeritus of the University of Pittsburgh, has been named chairman of the Commit- tee on Nominations of the Association of American Colleges during the Association's forty-second annual meeting held in St. Louis. Chancellor Fitzgerald's appointment was announced by the Association's newly- elected president, Arthur G. Coons, presi- dent of Occidental College, Calif., during the fifth general session held early in January. University Buys Schenley Buildings (Continued from Page 1) dents eventually to find other living ac- commodations, but University authorities were quick to explain that the transition will be gradual and that no serious diffi- culty is expected to result. Conversion of the apartments is not scheduled for sub- stantial completion until the early part of 1959. (See accompanying story for details of Pitt’: conversion plans.) Following the meeting of the board of trustees, Dr. Edward H. Litchfield, chan- cellor of the University, expressed grati- tude to those who made the transaction possible and to those who have given such significant gifts toward its use. “By making it possible for the Univer- sity to develop suitable living facilities for students," he said, “we will be enabled to build a student body representative of all sections of the country. This wider repre- sentation will further enrich our whole educational process.” =l= 1! II DR. LITCHFIELD also stressed advantages to be gained from the informal association of students and faculty members occupy- ing the same living areas. “We hope to create in the dormitories," he said, "an environment that will become an integral part of the total education pro- gram. By encouraging group living and close association with teachers and by bringing together students from various professional schools who will share the same living accommodations, the student will gain experiences that should enrich his life and broaden his outlook. Certainly knowledge gained through association with friends who teach by their example, per- sonality, and presence is among. the most worthwhile of all educational experiences.” =l= =K¢ =l= ACQUISITION of the property will give the University far more comprehensive facilities than had earlier been planned for construction on University property bounded by Ruskin Avenue, Bigelow Bou- levard, and Tennyson Avenue. This area for the present will continue to be the home of the General Alumni Association. It was pointed out by University author- ities that the newly-purchased buildings will enable the school to obtain facilities for a student center sooner than if it had been necessary to construct such a center on the Bigelow Boulevard site. Conversion of the apartments into dormitories, also, will make possible the housing of a larger number of students than could have been accommodated in the new buildings that had been contemplated. Transfer of equity in the property was approved by the board of directors of The Bellefield Company, which held the stock of The Schenley Park Apartments Com- pany. During the period of transition the apartment units will continue under the present management as agent for the University.

Dr. Weber, a resident of Pittsburgh all’ his life, was a student when Pitt was known as the Western University of Penn- sylvania. He was a member of the first graduating class under the present name in 1909. it # % FOLLOWING graduation as a mechanical engineer, he served briefly as an assistant to Prof. Reid T. Stewart, consultant to the National Tube Co. In 1910 he joined the University of Pittsburgh faculty as instruc- tor in shop work and held successively the positions of assistant professor, 1913-17; associate professor, 1917-25; and professor and head of the department of mechanical engineering, 1925-26. In 1926 Chancellor John G. Bowman appointed him business manager and su- pervising engineer of the University and it was largely under his direction as super- vising engineer that the Cathedral of Learning, Heinz Memorial Chapel, and Foster Memorial were planned and con- structed. The University conferred on him the honorary degree, Doctor of Science, in 1937 on the occasion of laying the corner- stone of the Cathedral of Learning. !I= III 1! IN A NOTE to Dr. Weber, Dr. Litchfield expressed gratitude for the advice and as- sistance given him during the first months of his term as chancellor. Dr. Weber is a member of Delta Tau Delta fraternity, Omicron Delta Kappa honorary fraternity, Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fraternity; Scabbard and Blade, and the University Club of Pittsburgh. He served as an Army captain in World War I. Mrs. Edward H. Litchfield Mrs. Edward H. Litchfield, wife of the chancellor of the University, died January 7, 1956 in a New York City hospital following a long illness. Mrs. Litchfield met her husband while they were students at the Uni- versity of Michigan and they were married in 1940, the same year in which he obtained his doctor's degree. For several years after their mar- riage Mrs. Litchfield, the former Anne Muir Macintyre, taught history at Michigan State University. For a time she was also curator of Michi- gan University’s Historical Collection. Surviving besides her husband are three children: Peter, 14; Janet, 12; and Anne Roberta, eight. Mrs. Litch- field, a native of Scotland, came to the United States as a child. Services and burial were held in Ithaca, N. Y., where the Litchfields now make their home. School Health The role of the school nurse and the public school administrator were explored at a recent conference by the Schools of Education and Nursing. The conference sought to highlight the part each profes- sional group contributes to health pro- grams in the public schools.

Clyde Barton urges all those who have changed their place of residence to forward their new mailing addresses to the General Alumni Association, University of Pitts- burgh, Pittsburgh 13, Pa. BY DR. JAMES J. LEE Prerident, General Alumni Asrociation This February 29th, as Chancellor Ed- ward H. Litchfield presents his initial ad- dress to the people of Pitt, the Century Club will again mark an im- portant first in its com- paratively short existence. The annual meeting of this organization, sched- uled to commemorate the University’s Charter Day, has been the scene of some of the most signifi- cant events of recent Pitt historyi Just last year, for example, Cen- tury Club members heard Dr. Rufus H. Fitzgerald, in one of his last appearances as chancellor of the University, announce a $175,000 grant from the A. W. Mellon Educational and Charitable Trust to fur- ther the core curriculum program which was launched this year in The College. Dr. Lee l= it I! IN 1954 CENTURY CLUB members were the first to hear plans for the construction of the two and a half million dollar George Hubbard Clapp Hall for the natural sci- ences The year before that, announcement was made at the Century Club dinner that the University would soon have a new Campus Scenes Shown On Color Slides A set of ten attractive Kodachrome slides of scenes on and about the Pitt campus has made by the University of Pittsburgh's Photographic Services, Thomas M. Jarrett, photographer. Scenes featured on the slides, which are the standard 2 inch by 2 inch type, are the Commons Room, the Heinz Chapel Win- dow of Abraham Lincoln, an aerial view of the June commencement, a view of the exterior of Heinz Chapel. A shot of the Pitt Band in the panther head formation before a capacity crowd in the stadium, a view of the Phipps Con- servatory cherry blossoms in bloom with the Cathedral of Learning in the back- ground, a full view of the Cathedral's ex- terior, one of the Stephen Foster Memorial. A detailed picture of the red, blue, and gold ceiling of the University's Greek Room, and one of the richly paneled Nor- weigan Room. The slides, along with a suitable con- tainer, may be obtained from the Univer- sity of Pittsburgh Photographic Services, 3002 Cathedral of Learning, Pittsburgh 13, Pa. The price is $2.75 the set, and 30 cents for individual slides. Religious Education Religious education was the topic of a recent gathering at Pitt. The two day ses- sion was sponsored by Pitt, Duquesne Uni- versity, Carnegie Institute of Technology and Chatham College. building for the Schools of Engineering and Mines The past few years have seen these plans become important parts of life at Pitt. Both the core curriculum program and the new Engineering and ‘Mines building were fac- tors in the academic program at the Uni- versity in the fall term of 1955 and occu- pancy of Clapp Hall is scheduled for sometime this year. =I= =I= =I= IT IS ENTIRELY appropriate that Cen- tury Club members should be at the fore- front of progress at the University, and that the events which spell progress should be of immediate concern to them. The present membership of the Century Club is 750. These men and women, who feel that the University of Pittsburgh and its future are important enough to them to contribute a hundred dollars or more per year, are not all wealthy people. To them one hundred dollars, even by 19565 rather inflated standards, is a large amount of money. Yet they give willingly so that the Uni- versity can maintain its proper place among the major educational institutions of the world. For them Dr.‘ Litchfield's first message, with its vital relationship to Pitt’s future, will have a particular appeal. February, 1956 Nutting To Head Buhl Foundation The board of managers of Pittsburgh's Buhl Foundation announced on December 14, 1955, that Dr. Charles B. Nutting, vice ‘chancellor of the University, will become director of the foundation on or about July 1, 1956. Dr. Nutting, widely known jurist, edu- cator, and administrator, will succeed Dr. Charles F. Lewis whose retirement was an- nounced in November. The announcement was made by Arthur L. Braun, president of the board of man- agers, who said, “We are fortunate indeed that it has been possible to find a man of Dr. Nutting’s exceptional experience and talents to fill this important office.” In accepting the appointment, Dr. Nut- ting expressed his deep admiration for the wisdom and imagination shown by Dr. Lewis as director of the Foundation since 1928. “The work of the Buhl Foundation, under his direction, is nationally known,” he said. “It will be an honor and a privi- lege to succeed him as director and to have the opportunity to work with this board of managers which has shown so much forward-looking spirit and so much pio- neering enterprise inphilanthropy.” He added, “It is with profound regret that I will sever my formal relationship with the University. With the coming of our new chansellor, Dr. Edward H. Litch- field, the University will enter upon what should be an ever greater progress. My leaving the University is made easier only by the fact that I will still continue in an educational enterprise and will still, al- though in a different way, continue to have the opportunity of participation in the great Pittsburgh renaissance.” Major Changes In Admissions Policy Announced Important changes in admissions proce- dure to take effect next fall have been an- nounced by Dr. Charles B. Nutting, acting chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh. The changes, to apply to students seek- ing admission as full-time undergraduates, are felt by the University to be the best possible way to meet the ever-increasing demands on the school's physical facilities. Enrollment has been on the rise for sev- eral years after a drop from the post-World War II peak and is expected to reach new heights within two or three years as a result of the great and sustained increase in the birthrate beginning about 1940. 1‘ % !I= THE NEW REGULATIONS, Dr. Nutting said, were decided upon to encourage early decisions by students considering attend- ance at Pitt as it became evident that it may be necessary to limit enrollment in some areas of study because of limited classroom and laboratory facilities. Major changes provide that (1) no ap- plication made after September 1 will be processed for admission for that fall semes- ter, (2) no entrance examination for fall semester admission will be given after the first week in September, and (3) a reser- vation deposit of $50, not refundable after August 1, will be required of each student upon acceptance for admission. These regulations will also apply to applicants for the spring semester, with appropriate dates to be set for students making application for entrance at the spring term. t C * THE SEPTEMBER 1 DEADLINE on appli- cations is earlier than heretofore, and the cutoff date on entrance examinations also has been advanced. p Applications for the fall semester of 1956 will be considered beginning March 1, and students who delay their decision overlong may find that many course groups have been filled by early applicants. =I= II! =l= The $50 reservation deposit, payable within 10 days after the student has been notified of his admission to the University, will be applied on tuition when the appli- cant registers for classes. However, a student wishing to with- draw his application will have his deposit refunded only if he gives notice of his withdrawal on or before August 1 or a corresponding date to be set for the spring semester.

Editorial Staff John R. Wilson, Jr. Edward Jensen Pbotography Thomas C. Vrana February, ‘I956 «at? » cus l’-ollansbee ,,,,_,,,,v. at 9: The theory that oddsmakers possess a kind of clairvoyance must have been con- firmed in the minds of many Pitt alumni who watched Georgia Tech beat us in the Sugar Bowl. The experts predicted Tech would win by seven points, and as it turned out that was the exact margin of victory. But this prediction was supposed to be based on solid fact, on the quality of the teams, on their performances and potentialities. Actually, Tech won by the whim of chance, through a penalty which no one could have foreseen—except an oddsmaker who owned . . . well, a crystal ball. In the hard fact department, Pitt made 19 first downs to 10 for Tech; completed eight passes to zero; gained 315 yards to 142. The figures show a Pitt team that had little trouble moving on the ground and in the air, and at the same time made it exceedingly difficult for Tech to move in any direction. Tech scored after an interference penalty on a pass put them on the one yard line from where they moved the ball for the touchdown. The penalty was against Bob Grier, who denies he pushed anyone, and whether he did or not has been debated at great length. At any rate, our boys threatened a num- ber of times to no avail while the Tech THE ALUMNI NEWS REVIEW 1 ‘l As the people above can testify, the I New Orleans Su ar Bowl 'aunt on the 9 I lAlumni Express was an experience .l the ’II remember with leasure all their _ Y P . lives. : They can look back on a fine iob I done by a Pitt team in the Sugar Bowl, l on a colorful city celebrating the New : Year, on weather that the New Orlean’s IChamber of Commerce must have or- Idered, and on the fun of being with one of the grandest groups of Pitt rooters who ever assembled to cheer the Panthers on.

With- out the penalty, the game would probably have ended in a scoreless tie. Whatever the ending, the Panthers made a national impression they'll have a job maintaining in face of next year's murder- ous schedule. As usual the Pitt Marching Band made a memorable impression, but it was con- fined to the 80,000 spectators who were in the Sugar Bowl Stadium. The television cameras didn't pick up the band show at halftime, an oversight not easily forgiven by the band’s fans, and they form a size- able bloc. But the verdict from the more- than 2,000 Pitt supporters—alumni and just plain wellwishers—was that, win or lose, the Panthers made a fine showing. The travellers also found New Orleans a happy place to be on that January 2. They watched the game in their shirt- sleeves, got light tans on their arms and noses and had a great time rooting for the home team. In fact, some of them wound up with sore throats. Best of all, the feeling on both sides was good. Pitt lost, but the Panthers had played hard and fans on both sides knew it. Tech won, and had shown a fast team and real sportsmanship all the way. As one Sugar Bowl official put it, "Both of these teams are welcome back any time.” 1 ‘x 3.2.23. ;.*x;.s.-.. 1-«,:\.n. x-_: at ‘It.’ Four Business Administration RICHARD G.

Fashioned of New Hampshire granite, the benches are a welcome and appropriate addition to the popular student meeting place. These memorials are from the classes of 1938, 1939, and 1944. # I! it BEGINNING IN 1934, the class memorial idea has been an extremely successful way for a graduating class to express its feel- ings for the University and to give perma- nent form to those feelings. Before each senior class graduates, a committee is formed to raise a given amount of money for a specific goal. In this manner many important memorials have been added to the University campus. IF THE CAMPAIGN falls short of its spec- ified amount, the money raised is held in reser've by the Dean of Men’s ofiice until another project is found that can be real- ized with the amount collected. =I= ’X= =I= Among the most attractive and useful memorials to be found at the University are the stained glass windows overlooking Lilly Court, gift of the Class of 1940; the Cathedral cornerstone in the Commons Room, gift of the Class of 1937; the bulle- tin board across from the student desk on the ground floor, gift of the Class of 1947; and the flagpole on the Bellefield lawn which was made possible through a gift from the Class of 1943. IN ADDITION To the new benches on the Lilly Court, others similarly construct- ed can be found on the Pitt campus. The classes of 1938 and 1939 have also pro- vided two 0 nthe Bigelow Boulevard side of the Cathedral, and two on the Bellefield side are the gifts of the classes of 1936 and 1942. Other projects are being planned by the Dean of Men’s office to employ funds held in reserve for future class memorials. . . . for Women BY MRS. DOLORES FREUND Director, Women’; Placement Bureau To most people, job opportunities for women usually mean secretarial or clerical work. Actually, the scope of jobs can range from part-time laboratory dish- washing to full-time traveling through Europe with a circus family. Various positions are available to women who want stimulating work. Career opportunities in the YWCA offer a vari- ety of experience, crea- tive work with people of diverse back- grounds, and good chances for advance- ment. A genuine enthusiasm fot youth service and an ability to work harmonious- ly and effectively with volunteer groups are principal qualifications for a position with the Girl Scouts. The beginning copy- writer can make her start in advertising by writing a'vatiety of copy or specifically fashion copy. Because of continual turn- over in this field, new openings are avail- able in several department stores in this area. Mrs. Freund If you enjoy phone conversations, the jobs of airline reservationist or service rep- resentative of a large company can be satis- fying. If you enjoy talking to groups, why not be a field instructor with a large Pitts- burgh company? Jobs in interviewing and personnel work, usually scarce openings, are at present available to qualified graduates. For women desiring a learning experi- ence in working with emotionally dis- turbed children, there are several openings at a nearby hospital. Working with young people in the atmosphere of a small girls’ school is another possibility for someone interested in young people and administra- tive work. If you are able to move to eastern Pennsylvania this responsible posi- tion offers work in public relations, alum- nae contacts, and admissions. These and many other interesting jobs are available to the graduate. Appoint- ments for interviews can be made by call- ing MA 1-3500, Ext. 209. . . . for Teachers WARREN SHEPLER, DIRECTOR Once again the Office of Civilian Per- sonnel under the Secretary of the Army has designated the School of Education of the Uni- versity of Pittsburgh as a center for the recruit- ment of teachers for the Army Dependents Schools overseas. Approx- imately 800 elementary and secondary teachers will be needed for the school term 1956-57.The Mn 5599'" Army operated schools are located in Japan, France, Germany and Austria. The greatest need will be for primary teachers. Secondary teachers must be qualified and experienced in two major subject fields. Qualifications for the positions are as follows: Bachelor's degree, 18 semester hours credit in education courses, posses- sion of a valid state teacher's certificate, and at least 2 years’ recent public school teaching experience at the grade levels or in the subject fields for which applying. The minimum age is 25 and the maximum age is 55. Single teachers will be employed in so far as possible because of the scarcity of family type housing in all overseas areas. Administrators from the overseas schools will interview candidates at the University on February 14, 15, 16, between the hours of 12:00 noon and 9 p.m. Interviews may be scheduled by calling or writing the Teachers Appointment Bureau. Phone: Mayflower 1-3500, extension 513. Inter- ested applicants should submit their names and addresses to the Bureau to obtain the necessary application forms and an ap- pointment for an interview. For those interested in teaching oppor- tunities in the public schools for the term 1956-57 the following information will be of value: A representative from San Diego Public Schools, San Diego, Cali- fornia, will visit the campus on March 7 to interview prospective candidates for teaching positions. Another representative from Baltimore County Public Schools will be on the campus on March 8 to recruit personnel for the 1956-57 school term. In- terested persons should make an appoint- ment for an interview. Teaching opportunities will be available in most all fields for the school term 1956- 57. The Bureau has received many vacancy notifications for the coming school term. As of this time the need is greatest at the elementary level. However, the current trend indicates that the need for secondary teachers, especially at the junior high school level, is increasing. Registrants with the Bureau who wish to have additional information are encouraged to contact the Bureau at an early date. Those alumni in education who have not registered with the Bureau are urged to register with us and take advantage of the services offered. . . . for Men BY PAUL M. SHERWOOD Director, Men’: Placement Bureau Opportunities for young, inexperienced graduates and for those with limited ex- perience seem to be growing. The demand for engineers at this level is greater than ever, and the starting salaries for such positions are higher. Experienced science and engineering graduates continue to be in short supply. Excellent positions are available in the field of Mr. Sherwood sales. Outstanding among these are the openings in insurance and in business machines and supplies. For men with tech- nical training, the industrial sales field is wide open. it =I= =l= The Placement Bureau gets frequent in- quiries from alumni cOncern_ing openings in administration and management. Be- cause of the well-established and sound policy of promotion from within, few or- ganizations have such positions available. There are, however, many opportunities for men to advance quickly to such posi- tions from jobs which are currently listed. In order to serve alumni better, the Bureau requests that alumni call or write for an appointment. This Spring the Bur- eau will play host to representatives from more than 300 business, industrial, and governmental organizations. Consequently, it will be easier to help alumni who have scheduled appointments with Placement Director. Again, the Bureau urges alumni who are employers to register their needs with the Bureau. Every effort will be made to find interested and qualified applicants for any positions that may be open. .::.:>.. a as 17.1’; .z..;. r v 5 ,4 ‘L *7 3 <\;jC:-AI"I.1~ ma-..-.-r.x~a.-:.;.x.-. ‘~.U.u5.i :2». 5;, THE ALUMNI NEWS REVIEW February. 1956 Contributors To Pitt's Annual Alumni Giving Fund J NINTH YEAR, BEGINNING JULY 1, 1955 d The names shown below are those of alumni who have contributed to the Annual ‘Alumni Giving rind betweBen.l:il1.e daFtesdof November’ 8, 1I9::rlai:r January I6, 1956.

Lange, Executive Secretary of the Pennsylvania Forensic and Music League, has announced that the. league’s annual contest will be _held on April 26, 27, and 28, 1956, at the University of Pittsburgh. . Approximately 4,000 high school stu- dents from virtually every county in the Commonwealth will participate, and sev- eral thousand additional guests——principals, teachers, and parents——are expected. To commemorate this, the twenty-fifth contest in the series, a short history of the‘ league is being prepared. The league has had its headquarters at the University of Pittsburgh ever since 1927, the year of its institution by the Commonwealth. At the first contest held in Pittsburgh that year, 100 Pennsylvania students took part. Last year at the league's contest in York, Pa., 3,912 contestants participated. Today, total membership of the organization including teachers, stu- dents, and school officials numbers be- tween 20,000 and 50,000. This year’s three-day contest, Mr. Lange said, will feature 80 different events, 70 of which are in music, vocal and instrumental, both group and solo, and 10 of which are in speech for individual and group effort. The work of the league is administered by the University of Pittsburgh through its Extension Division. Dr. George M. Hoffman, director of the Johnstown Center, was invited to attend the much-discussed White House Confer- ence on Education in Washington, D. C. An associate professor of education, Dr. Hoffman is a former director of the Pitt Teacher Appointment Bureau. THE ALUMNI NEWS REVIEW New GHQ For University Outdoor Activities Headquarters building at the Hubbard Reservation =X= =|l< =|(= The University has found what amounts to a “country home” with the recent ac- quisition of the Boy Scout Hubbard Res- ervation near North Park. Tentative plans for the 175-acre tract indicate its uses will be similar to the adjacent public park—-outdoor recreation and athletics. Dr. Charles B. Nutting, acting chancel- lor, also pointed out the suburban facilities are ‘ideal for educational meetings and seminars. The University acquired the land through its long-range financing program. =K= =N= i‘ HOWEVER, a short time after the an- nouncement was made Mrs. Allan M. Scaife presented. the University with a gift to cover the cost and provide additional funds for development of the area. She hopes, Mrs. Scaife said, that her action will "encourage the establishment =l= =l= =l= of a fund to receive contributions from alumni and others interested in the devel- opment of the property.” The reservation—once a private golf club—-—covers a rolling woodland and open field area and includes a 75 by 30 foot outdoor swimming pool, several tennis courts, a large stucco and timber headquar- ters building and a caretaker’s dwelling. =|l= =ll< ii‘ BOTH THE golf course and the tennis courts are in need of reconstruction. Captain Thomas Hamilton, director of athletics, described the Hubbard land "as providing what every urban university needs, a place where faculty and students can meet and join in outdoor activities, group outings and recreational sports events.” ’ He indicated the new suburban acquisi- tion. will provide facilities for a pre-season football camp. Seven Prof. Finney Authors New Book on Choir The University Press has announced the publication of We Have Made Mario, 21 book by Theodore M. Finney, professor of music history and literature, head of the department, and director of the Heinz Chapel Choir. The book is a series of five essays which originated as talks by Pro- fessor Finney at Heinz Chapel Choir ban- quets and at the choir’s Sunday services at camp. The essays are explanations of the work of the choir, what it means to Professor Finney, to the choir members, and to the many hundreds of people who have seen and heard the choir’s performances. But the essays, although directed primarily to choir members, have implications beyond the particular situations from which they arose. Much of Professor Finney’s philoso- phy of teaching and life is in these essays, a philosophy which is respected by his students, friends, and colleagues at Pitt and at colleges and universities all over the country. We Have Made Music, a forty-three page book, sells for $1.50. Copies may be ordered from the University of Pittsburgh Press, 3509 Cathedral of Learning, Pitts- burgh 13, Pa. Professor H. G. Botset, head of the Petroleum Engineering Department, is serving as a member of the engineering committee of the International Oil Com- pact Commission.
