ENGINEERING NOTES
J. U. Kauffman, 1911, was re
cently appointed Electrical Engi
neer for the Spanish American Iron
Company, whose works are at
Santiago de Cuba. Mr. Kauffmann
will sail shortly for that city.
The regular annual inspection
trip for the senior electrical engineer
ing students will be held from
March 9th to 16th. The places
visited will be in the vicinity of
New York and Philadelphia.
The Milling Department has just
received a sifting machine, and
double set of rolls from the Nor
kyke & Marmon Co., of Indianapo
lis, and a "Niagara Dust Collector' ,
from the Richardson Manufacturing
Go., Lockport, N. Y. Both these
machines are gifts to the college
from the companies.
Mr. J. T. Gephart, of the state
highway department, delivered the
fourth of the series of lectures he is
giving before the students in High
way ' Engineering, and Civil Engi
neering, last Thursday. The sub
ject taken up was that of surveys
connected with highway work.
Nearly all the laboratories in the
Engineering Annex are now in
order. As yet no partitions sepa-,
rate the various departments, and it
is of course impossible to keep
students and others out who have
no business there. It should be
borhe in — mina" That those - wlio'
thoughtlessly handle and manipul
ate machines whose construction
and operation they do not under
stand are apt to cause damage.
One testing machine has already
been injured in this way. Not only
is the college put to extra expense,
by such carelessness, but students
taking the course are inconveni
enced and delayed with their
work.
Professors Moyer and Diemer
are preparing sections respectively
on mechanical engineering, and
shop management, for a new
Mechanical Engineers' Handbook,
in style somewhat like the Ger
man Handbook of Hutte. McGraw-
Hill Book Company will publish
the work, which will appear before
next fall. It will be up to date,
and will be revised and a new edi
tion•issueeJ every -two and -one half
years spas to -keep-it abreast of the
times.
State Football Stant 0 'Coach
fx-captain ;Dexter Very hUs an
nOnced this intention to coach the
Mercersburg Preparatory School
fObtbill train during the season
of 1913. Very supersedes Coach
Kennedy, formerly of the Univer
eity of Pennsylvania, and has the
distinction of being the first Mer
cersburg man to coach his Alma
Mater.
It is very probable that J. L.
Mauthe, captain of our 1912 cham
pionship eleven, will accept arc r
tract to - coach - Gettysburg's football
team during the coming season. If
Pregent negotiations are completed,
Menthe will supersede Coach
Phillip'lli, a former Gettysburg
man, ans•wis act in the capacity of
a head coach.
The college library desk closes
fro 12.30 until 1 o'clock, and from
5.30 until 6 o'clock, so as to allow
the librarians to partake of their
dihner, which it is inconvenient to
secure at any other time.

Seventeenth and Cheery Streets, Philadelphia, Pa.
Y. M C. A. Notes
New Bible Study and Missionary
Discussion groups are now being
formed in various parts of the town
and the dormitories. Anyone in
terested enough to join one is asked
to call at the Y. M. C. A. room for
detailed information. A course to
study briefly several of the great
religions of the world will be
offered.
Dr. Issac T. Headland, formerly
on the faculty at Peking University,
will be here at the college over the
coming Sunday. By his lectures
and his books he is doing a great
piece of service now in spreading
some valuable information concern
-
ifig the Foreign Missionary Move
ment and its relations to commerce
and civilization. He will lecture on
Saturday evening and will speak at
chapel on Sunday morning.
"Daddy" Groff is back and hard
at work again in China. He and
his wife are occupying temporarily
some rooms in one of the college
buildings until funds can be secured
for a house. The contribution we
make through the chapel collection
is not used for that purpose how
ever, but to equip him in his work.
$60.00 a Sunday is needed for what
is expected in his work, and also
for Randoll's work in Virginia.
For the past few Sundays the col
lection has fallen short of that
amount, the last Sunday's being
$47.27. He is giving his life—can
we not give up one evening a week
at the "movies", or can we not give
up a sundae.
Interclass Basket Ball.

score •of 29 to 22 last - Friday even
