what branch of engineering it is, be
it mechanical, efvQ or chemical. In
: this case we are more concerned with
\ the chemical part of engineering. It
is vary unfortunate that the College
does not find itaelf located in a part
of the country where the industries
are growing fast, this being mainly
an agricultural section of the state.
The industrial part would be of h»-
calcuable use to the Student for he
could then actually see and observe
the processes of manufacture, in pro
duction. It is essential that when
chemical engineer fills a position
such with some corporation, that he
can say that he is familiar with the
process. The chemistry’ department
of the-college realizes that fact more
and more every day, so that it has
started a Series at miniature plants
used in the industries. They are. Ml

of material with which
Aggie delegation of
this sport, and he has already begun
the work of shaping them up.
The initial step was taken last
Monday week, when the call was
made for basoball matfartalj' One
hundred men answered the call and
signified their intention of beginning
training at once. This was rather
an overwhelming start and Coach
Bible was forced to make some kind
of an elimination. He decided to call
out only th> pitchers knd catchers.
Work this past week Mss had te do
with the battery only, and the least
force in the ranks of team aspirants
is here.
Daniels is the only letter man who
has stepped on the field so far to re
sume his old place on th*> mound. It
seems that there will he no applicant
with former service record as a rec
ommendation for a place behind the
bat.
Captain Jud Lewis U opt for his
fourth year with the infield. Lackey
and Rothe, both letter men with two-
year records on the infield are back,
and the outfield is showing up equal
ly as strong with Gufnes, Higgin
botham, Matthews and Glesen, all
letter men.
Thus it is seen that the task ahead

The plants serve two purposes, one is
to train the stud^t, Um-other is to
experiment new processes, or perfect
old ones. The department, as well as
the Students are greatly indebted to
the kindness of cqmpauies who have
made possible the building of the
plants, by giving us very willingly
apparatus manufactured by them, to
be tried out by Us. Below a complete
description is given of
been done so feU. , Ip (

is trying out. We sre proud to claim
to be the first. [[_ A

A contributing factor toward the
