The new training sessions,

out of a state law passed in
1961. The law requies cosme

10 hours of training to renew
their licenses each year.

The building that saw the
ibirth of Agricultural Engi
neering in the United States
60 years ago has reached the
end of a long career and is
now scheduled for demolition.
The University of Nebraska
Board of Regents last Friday
authorized razing the struc
ure,' variously known as
Machinery Hall, Home Eco
nomics Annex, the Meats Lab
oratory and the Chemurgy
Building.
..Located in the heart of the
University Ag Campus, the
rather unimposing building is
familiar to many Agricultural
and Home Economics alumni.
Present day students, how
ever, probably have little con
ception of the part it has
played In the growth of their
university.
The building was first con
structed to house the farm
mechanics department in 1904.
Courses were offered in oper
ating and maintaining ma
chinery and motors, forge
work and woodworking. Pro
fessor 0. P. V. Stout, who is
considered the "Grandfather
of Agricultural Engineering in
the United States," was in
strumental in arranging the
courses in Farm Mechanics.
At this time there were only
three other buildings on the
old College Farm, which was
later to become the complex
making up the campus of the
College of Agriculture and
Home Economics. These were
Agricultural Hall, the Ag Hall
Annex, and an experiment
station building which now
James Hornby, Union
games manager, will be the
local tournament director for
the competion, which is spon
sored by the Association of
College Unions.
National titlists for this 15th
annual renewal of the tourney
will be awarded traveling
trophies and plaques one cup
for the college scoring high
est on east-west hands, and
one cup going to. the college
of the north-south band win
ners. In addition, each of the four
individual national winners
will receive a smaller cup.
All play will be conducted
through the mail on the indi
vidual campuses in a single
session, and will be judged by
William Root and Lawrence
Rosier, contract bridge au
thorites. Last year, Sid Stacy and
Mike Rayan were the regional
north-south winners in the
Seven Graduates,
One Student Pass
Actuaries' Exams
Seven University graduates
and one student successfully
passed the examinations in
series given nationally by the
Society of Actuaries.
Dr. Robert E. Larson, pro
fessor of actuarial science at
the University, explained that
the series leads toward certi
fication as an actuary, an ex
pert who calculates insurance
risks and premiums.
Linda Larson, a University
student, passed the examina
tion In general mathematics.
Graduates who attended the
University's actuarial classes
in previous years, and the
citv in which they are now
employed, passed the follow
ing exams:

houses the Department of In- j
formation.
In about 1908 the Farm
Mechanics Department was
charged to Agricultural Engi
neering, subject administra
tively to the associate dean of
engineering and the associate
dean of agriculture. A some
what . altered version of this
joint administration is still in
effect. In 1910, the Depart
ment offered the first 4-year
course of study in ag engineer
ing to be offered in the United
States, which was equivalent
to other courses in engineer
ing. Since 1918, when the agri
cultural engineering depart
ment moved into its new
building at the end of the
Mall, "Machinery Hall" has
housed widely divergent proj
ects and departments. -
When the late Wm. Loeffel,
former chairman of the de
partment of animal husband
ry, joined the staff in 1918, he
dreamed of a new mear lab
building, a dream which was
realized in 1953. During the
years from 1919 to 1953, how
ever, the meat lab shared its
quarters with strange bed-fel
lows. The soot from the old
foundry sifted down upon the
heads of young men slaught
ering steers, while overhead
the Home Ec students pinched
their noses against the offend'
ing odor of lard rendering.
In 1931, Arnold Baragar, as
sociate professor of family
economics and management,
conducted his research in
home economics equipment on
the upper level of what was
by then known as the "Home
Ec Annex", and a rat labora
competition, with Lake Forest
College winning the north'
south national championship
The University of Illinois and
the University of California at
Berkeley were dead locked
for the east-west champsion
ship.

since 1931, recalls that at one
time tie rods were injected in
to the framework of the build

an effort to keep snow off her

The chemurgy department
was the next occupant to
share the building and gave
the structure its most recent
name.
Leo Christiansen, chairman
