fraternities, in the true Christmas
Spirit, are giving parties at the
orphanages this weekend.
There seems to be a pre-Christ-mas
lull in the sororities and frat
ernities on Monday nights because
there were only anouncements of
one marriage, two engagements,
and two pinnings last night.

What's doing . . .
at Pratt & Whitney Aircraft
THE HOUSE THAT
JET ENGINES BUILT
Engineers and scientists at Pratt & Whitney Aircraft
developed the piston engines that wrote aviation history I
for three decades. Then came the-jet age, and again it
was the P & W A team that came up with the mighty
J-57, most powerful production aircraft engine in the
world today. Behind such accomplishments, of course,'
stand many development tooIs...tools like the house that)
jet engines built: the 'Andrew Willgoos Laboratory.
Located on the eastern bank of the Connecticut Paver)
in East Hartford, this windowless, thick concrete-walled !
laboratory has been growing almost continuously since' -its
initial "completion" in 1950. As more powerful, far
more advanced turbojet engines are conceived, the means'
for testing them in development stages must itself underw I
go carefully calculated alteration. Hence, authorship of "
today's specifications for Willgoos Laboratory properly'
belongs to the experimental engines it Is testing today.)
Similarly, tomorrow's proportions, capacities and equipJ
ment will depend upon the requirements of tomorrow's '
power plants.
Behind the ponderous walls of this multi-million-dollar
structure lies the wherewithal to simulate many of the
rigorous flight conditions to be encountered by military "
onI - w - - -
vu,UJUCI-iitl aircraii. i ne range of these conditions
must vary from ambient pressures and temperatures in
a static condition at sea level all the way to the pres
sures, temperatures and high speeds involved in hitfi
altitude flight 6
