Another "Fad" Invades The Campus
University Man Makes Appearance
Wearing Much Talked Of "Knickers"
Have you noticed it? At last a stu
dent has had enough courage to appear
on the campus in knickers. He cer
tainly does cut a noble figure as he
flits from building to building and to
all prominent points where crowds
are accustomed ty gather between
classes.
We should be thankful tha tthe Ad-
cnious who has just broken the ice of

that rival's our conception of a Follie's

with the pockets neatly flapped and
secured by glistening buttons brown

oxfords, a white collared shirt that
was set off very well by a tie of the

SECOND YEAR CLASS TO
CELEBRATE WITH SPREE
Sophomore Class Will Hold Big
Fun Fest in Armory Fol
lowing Vacation.
A "Sophomore Spree" will be held
April 8 at the Armory. Every second
year student is expected to attend
the "Spree" which will be the big
event of the sophomore year. Admis
sion will be 50c.
This is going to be more than a
mixer, it will be a real "Spree." Not
satisfied with the ordinary type of
mixer, the committee, under the
leadership of H. Stephen King, chair-
tonan, have planned the 'bopnomore
Spree." A large number of novelties
as well as all of the features of a
mixer will help to make this party
unique.
The Louisiana Ragadors wil lfurnish
the music. These popular -coF.ege
music makers will help to inspire the
sophomore spirit. Refreshments will
be served. Decorations will make the
Armory attractive for the annual
sophomore fun-fest.
The "Sophomore Spree" is given
so that the members of the second
year class may become acquainted.
The committee is hard at work to
make the party excell all similar
events. The name they have given
the affair, the "Sophomore Spree,"
gives a hint of what may be ex
pected. Frances Mentzer, '25, will spend va
cation in Kansas City.

FRED H RINDGE TALKS
ENGINEERING
National Secretary Tells Engin
eers Of Problems Confront
ing Them.
Fred H. Ringe, secretary of the Na
tionaj.: Industrial Movement, spoke be
fore a group of engineers at special
convocation Thursday morning. Mr.
Ringe is holding a number of meet
ings on the campus in the interests of
the industrial service movement.
Mr Ringe. spoke on "the subject of
Human Engineering, having recetly
retured from a trip to Europe where
he studied the problem in twenty-three
countries. These countries are now
becoming alert to the necessity of
this problem and here in the United
States we are also seeing it's need.
Humanics and Dynamics
The engineering course, as it is now
taught in so many of our Universities,
well fits a graduate in the technical
lines of his work but he receives prac
tically no knowledge in the handling
of men. Our success as an engineer
depends very largely on our knowledge
of "Humanics as well as dynamics,
or the knowledge of knowing how to
handle men as well as materials. The
engineer should know how to make
use of the Golden Rule as well as
the slide rule.
The engineer is the man who should
serve to bring labor and capital to
gether. The management of men is
one of the principle assets of an engin
eer.
