For Engineers
Bryan Mayor John R. Naylor
and Ernest Langford, mayor of
College Station, have issued simul

the week of February 18-24 “Na
tional Engineer’s Week.”
Calling on the citizens to give
“proper recognition an honor to
the engineers of our communities,
our state, and our nation, “dur-
inng this week, the officials point
ed out that the observance is espec
ially timely since the birthday of

quite a reputation as an engineer
before he began his military and
political career, falls within this
week.

“National Engineer’s Week” for
the Bryan-Colleg'e Station area will
be the Brazos Chapter of the
Texas Society of Professional Eng
ineers, headed by Carl W. George
Jr., president, assisted by Joe G.

neer’s Week Committee.

luncheons, talks and a banquet at

planned for the week and many
displays will appear in the win
dows and lobbies of co-operating
business establishments.
Our future is in the hands of men not yet hired
At Western Electric we play a vital role in
helping meet the complex .needs ot America’s
vast communications networks. And a career
at Western Electric, the manufacturing arm of
the nation-wide Bell Telephone System, offers
young men the exciting opportunity to help us
meet these important needs.
Today, Western Electric equipment reduces
thousands of miles to fractions'of seconds. Even
so, we know that our present communications
systems will be inadequate tomorrow; and we
are seeking ways to keep up with—and antici
pate — the future. For instance, right now
Western Electric engineers are working on
various phases of solar cell manufacture,
miniaturization, data transmission, futuristic
telephones, electronic central offices, and
computer-controlled production lines—to name
just a few.
To perfect the work now in progress and
launch many new communications products,
projects, procedures, and processes not yet in
the mind of man — we need quality-minded
engineers. If you feel that you can meet our
standards, consider the opportunities offered
by working with our company. In a few short
years, you will be Western Electric.
Challenging opportunities exist now at Western
Electric for electrical, mechanical, industrial, and chemi
cal engineers, as well as physical science, liberal arts,
and business majors. All qualified applicants will re
ceive careful consideration for employment without
regard to race, creed, color or national origin. For more
information about Western Electric, write College Rela
tions, Western Electric Company, Room 6206, 222
Broadway, New York 38, New York. And be sure to
arrange for a Western Electric interview when our
college representatives visit your campus.
