She began n*-r performance with sev

bat, soon rising from the ridiculous to
lie sublime, she gave that famous
speech of rariiinal Wool.sey after his
downfall and di-giae*- at the hands of
King Henry Eighth. The effectiveness
of Wcolsev’s soliloquy was somewhat
marred i*y a n«*;v addition to the num-

Miss Monti, however, graciously shared

Miss Morgan then t< >t<l the trag

Portraying the fam -us scenes of tie

The program was completed by a 1

charming French princess. Katherine,
by the rough and ready English mon

the audience home, as .Miss .Morgan had

INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERS
DISCUSS PA. DAY PLANS
The Industrial Engineering Society
held an interesting meeting last week
and transacted important business, es
pecially In reference to the Pennsyl
vania Day stunts.
A discussion of the I. 13. booklet was
taken up and arrangements made for its
publication. This booklet is sent to a
great many manufacturers for the pur
pose of placing alt l. 13. graduates in
goodjwsitkms at once upon graduation.
L E. students are especially fortunate,
as no other school nr course takes care
of its graduates in this manner.
Arrangements were made for a dance
to be held in the near future, followed
by a discussion of the I. E. stunts for
the Pennsylvania Day p.-grain. Com
mittees have boon appointed and the
*ork Is well under way. Every man
enrolled in the I. 13. course will do his
*hare. All men, especially the sopho
mores and freshmen arc requested to
watch the engineering bulletin board
f°r information as to when to report
for work.

Engineering
It is not enough that electrical apparatus
should be carefully conceived, skillfully
designed, and exactingly manufactured.
Engineering, to fulfill all its functions,
must go beyond these necessary steps and
do a still more enlightened service. It
must apply the apparatus to its uses, so
that not only in design and construction
but in service as well, all the conditions
that must be reckoned with are fully
satisfied.
This function of Wcstinghouse appli
cation engineering covers many fields, and
charges itself with many responsibilities.
It is engineering that concerns itself with
almost every aspect of business,- central
station, transportation, industrial, min
ing, electro-chemical, etc. It has the
buyer’s interest constantly at heart.

consulting engineers, with contractors,
and with service and repair men; it finds

PRE-MEDS PETITION FOR
ANIMAL INSPECTION TRIP
In accordance with their custom of
previous years, tho junior pre-medical
students have petitioned the faculty to
give them a week's leave of absenc*
for the purpose of making their annual
inspection ot the medical schools in
Philadelphia. The pre-mods hope to
have their petition granted so that they
may visit rhildelphia during tho week
of the I’enn State-Penn game and thus
combine business with pleasure.
The junior pre-medical students have
taken trips similar to this for a number
ot years past and have secured an in
sight into the work which they are tak

Quaker City. They plan to extend their
inspection trip this year so that it will
include visits to the University of l'enn
