Engine Companies Unable
To Make Trip Until
Late Spring.
The second annual diesel fhort
course which was to have been
held this semester has been can
celed by Prof. J. W. Haney, chair
man of the department of me
chanical engineering. The univer
sity had hoped to be able to offer
people of the state another oppor
tunity to learn more about the
servicing of diesel engines, but be
cause the engine manufacturers,
who were sponsoring the pro
gram in cooperation with several
midwestern universities, were un
able to make the trip to the va-
rious campuses until late spring.
another enthusiastic group could
have been expected this year. The
schools cooperating with the five
manufacturers besides Nebraska
last year were Iowa State, Wis
consin, Purdue, Ohio State and
Michigan State.
In addition to the fact that the
spring program is already too full,
Professor Haney found it impos
sible to offer the diesel course at
this time because the faculty has
bee overloaded for some time. The
teaching staff from the agricultur
al engineering faculty would be
unable to assist with the instruc
tion at this time due to the tractor
testing program which is about to
begin. University officials hope,
however, to be able to offer the
three-weeks course next year.

rather, they have helped to in

of the incread number of fa

that the fncre&ne in highway

the increase in engine horsepower.
"There are two solutions to the
problem. First, a governor must
be placed on each engine to limit
its maximum speed and. second,

a makeshift because the mechanic
