Paul Johrde, a 1947 gradu ate of the University, spoke at the annual College of En gineering and Architecture convocation on "A Challenge of All Engineers." Johrde suggested the estab lishment of a supporting oc cupation, "engineering tech nicians who would assist an engineer in a manner similar to the way a nurse assists a doctor. "There are thousands of men working today who years ago wasted time and money to obtain an engineering degree only to spend their lives doing a job that could be handled by a technician," he comment ed. There are many routine re petitive calculations which can be done by technicians, the former University student said. "In this era of rapid tech nical advances, the profession al engirT should be a man trained in college for at least six years and the technician for two years.

Either from memory, by painstaking research, or, oc casionally, by mind reading, these University librarians manage to answer most of the hundreds of questions posed weekly to them. It is a rare day, explains Bernard Kreissman, assistant director of libraries for hu manities, that the research staff is completely puzzled. When this happens, he says, the questions are usually ex tremely obscure or concern phenomena too recent to be included in the s 0 u r c e ma terials. Lady Lou A sportscaster's newly coined word, for instance, may not appear in any dic tionary. But in this case, Kreissman says, the librari ans can usually guess quite accurately at the meaning. One time they were unable to confirm an inquirer's ap parent belief that the char acter, Lady Lou, in "T h e Shooting of Dan McGrew" re ferred to a specific woman. However, the librarians have been able to provide such varied information as this: the ancient Chinese in cubated eggs by slipping them in the long loose sleeves of the coolies; Ulysses' dog's name is Argus, and that r useu s norse means a grotesque hoise in a night mare depicted in one of the painter's works. At times unanswered quer ies have led to interesting endings. When it was impos sible to find adequate ma terial about Christian Rohlfs, the German Expressionist, for Manfred L. Keiler, asso- Rodeo Entries Due Wednesday Rodeo Club will meet Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. in the animal husbandry build ing. Prudie Morrow urged all members to attend.

Keiler consequently undertook the project and later received a grant for research in Ger many, While the bulk of reference questions comes from stu dents and faculty members, a large number of outside re quests are also handled. Certain categories of infor mation are often sought, al though most questions con cern the use of the library's resources. Theater groups, for instance, request pictures of interiors and costumes. Re cently, for the University Theatre's production of "The Lark," a play based on the life of Joan of Arc, Kreiss man described the toy Charles II played with. uiten tne librarians are asked for photographs of lit erary references and expla nations of symbols. They've been asked, for example, "Is there a Cooper's Hill?"; and "Why is there a rose at the foot of a prisoner in iail"? Many nes the librarians receivi; oiily a vague hint, or even erroneous information in the original request. This is when mind reading helps. They were puzzled along time by one housewife's in quiry about "a story about a famous Spanish parrot" mentioned by a club lecturer. One of the librarians finally telephoned the woman and confirmed a hunch that the lecturer had actually re ferred to a "famous Spanish parody, 'Don Quixote.' " An other time, when a student asked for "Bail Wolf, the Greek Play," one librarian calmly pulled out "Beowulf," the Anglo-Saxon epic poem. Another category deals with more involved questions requiring extensive research. These have ranged from "Did St. Thomas Aquinas have a definite position on capital punishment"? to "What have the great philoso phers written on hate"? To the Rescue The librarians recently came to the aid of Paul Engle, the poet who spoke PRINTING Fraternity, Sorority & Organ ixation Lottorhaada ... Lot tori . . . Nowo Bullotina . . . Booklet . . .

Mr. Engle had left behind all of his references, and two hours before the lec ture appealed to the library, Well before the convoctaion, the librarians had found for him all of his works from the last 15 years. Kreissman considers h i s biggest problem to be telling people who bring in beloved 100-year-old family Bibles that they are of no value to a book dealer. "They look at me with ut ter disbelief," he says, add ing that age alone does not determine a book's value. At times, however, he has un covered books of value from the attic relics persons bring to his office. Nine Cadets Nab ROTC Honors Nine Army and Air Force ROTC cadets were honored last week.
