made.
It is the only tractor lab of its

Engineers' Convocation
Much more than technical
know-how is necessary for suc
cess in industry, a recent grad
uate of the College of Engineer
ing and Architecture told engi
neering students, Nov. 24.
Speakinr at the annual en
gineers' convocation, Weston D.
Birdsall emphasised the import
ance of (1) rood speech and
writing habits and (2) the per
sonal development rained
through a variety of outside ac
tivities. Birdsall, who received the
bachelor's degree in mechanical
engineering from the university
in 1949, is now a sales engineer,
wth the Phillips Petroleum Co.
His talk was sponsored by the
University chapter of Sigma Tau,
national honorary engineering so
ciefv. " Birdsall said he had talked
with a number of young en
gineers to discover what sug
gestion they would make to stu
dents. "The one recommenda
tion which has received their I
unanimous support.' he said, !
"is that every potential engineer ,
should take as many courses
as possible in English grammar
and composition, speech, busi
ness writing and courses which
will help him learn how to
study and how to read."
He told students that employ
ers are greatly interested in
ee
"college activities of their potential
employees.
"Your scholastic record is, of Engineering and Arcnr.ecture lorj -The greatest gift of all" is the
course, important, but do not offering its, students a sound back--National Red Cross theme for De

Now lets go along with Lester
F. Larsen, engineer in cnarge oi
tests, while the 32,000 pound
"crawler," spoken oi aoove, is pui
through its paces. After ' calling
it a "cat" (short lor capterpmai ,
which is considered a "bad" word
among tractor engineers, we are
corrected and started on the right
course. . . ,
First, the tractor is driven
around the outdoor tracK ior
about 12 hours to limber it up,
take out the stiffness ana see
that all parts are wording nor-
mallv. Usually during ttus time
it pulls another tractor along be
hind which acts as a ratea ioaa.
Next it Is taken Inside wnere
it is belted to a belt dynamome
ter which determines the belt
horsepower of the tractor. After
fifteen or twenty hours It Is
again taken out on the track
where it undergoes draw bar
tests.
Outside, the test determines oil,
fuel and water consumption, slip
page under certain load condi
tions, pounds pull and in general
the overall performance of the
tractor. The weight pulled in a
certain time space, measured by
yellow stakes placed at 500 foot
intervals around the track, equals
the number of drawbar horse
power generated by the tractor.
This horsepower is measured in
each gear. The drawbar tests usu
ally take another 15 hours.
The tractor being tested outside,
with its added loads, presents an
odd looking caravan.
Attached immediately beh:nd
the "crawler" being tested Is an
other larger "crawler" which Is
attached backwards and used to
supply regulated weight.
Following the second tractor Is
an instrument car which records
the number of pounds pull, the
rate of travel in feet per minute
and the number of engine RPMs,
need to keep it at a constant
speed. Also shown on the instru
ment panel of this car is the wa
ter and air temperature, and the
wheel count from which the slip
page is calculated.
Two smaller tractors are added
behind the instrument car for
