MILITARY BALL With quality end freshness By DARWIN McAfee SUff Writer Did you ever see 32,000 pounds of tractor straining under a load almost equal to its own weignt and vibrating vigorously from the 128 drawbar horsepower gener ated by its powerful motor? This modern machine version of the dor and dor sled weight pulllnr contests of the far north are common procedure at the Tractor Testinr Lab on Ar campus. The lab consists of a building where certain motor tests are made and the data on the tests are collected and com piled, plus a half mile oval dirt track where running tests are made. It is the only tractor lab of its kind in the United States, and the Eastin Wins Third In Essay Contest i Jerry EasUn, Ag college junior placed third in a national agron omy essay contest. Eastin's theme on "Crops and Soil' was one of 61 submitted to the American Society of Agron- omv for their annual contest. The top three winners in the contest received an expense free trip to Cincinnati, to the na tional Tri-K convention. At the convention the winners were presented with a medal from the society.

Many tractor manu facturers have their own testing labs but since the NebrasKa iaD, is recognized as a final authority nil nvpr the United States and most parts of the world, most companies send their tractors here to be tested. The results of the tests are published to give pros pective buyers an unbiased report of performance. In other countries tractors are often tested by rnnninr them in fields under actual work'nr Conditions. These test may take as long as two years. The re sults of the tests are made only in terms of opinion not actual The lab is now in its 32nd Ml I GtnAunte Addresses 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 make the mistake of earning ground in engineering f undamen- cember. i grades . for the sake of grades a3r.iv" he said.

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 (added weight. 1 NU Lincolnites 9 Urged To Give KlQQrl II AT j This Christmas gift is a pint of blood for a serviceman. j Shirley Murphy, chairman of the Red Cross College Unit blood committee, announced that the j blood mobile will be at the Scot- "ish Bite Temple, 15th and L, on Dec 23.
