'4r CAMPUS NOTES ENGINEER HEADS CARDINAL STAFF Edward Bachowski, c'34, was ap- pointed business manager for the Cardinal on Tuesday, May 2. Evi- dently, even the Cardinal has come around to a realization of the fact that it pays to do things correctly. Congratulations, Ed., put the Cardinal en an engineering basis. WAGNER WINS YEARLY HER- FURTH EFFICIENCY PRIZE Aubrey J. Wagner is the winner in the 1933 Theodore Herfurth Effi- ciency Award, the judges announced at a recent meeting in the Park Hotel The $100 award, which was estab- lished by Mr. Herfurth in 1928, is given each year to the best all around senior man. SHAKE 'EM UP, GALS! Now that Haresfoot's "Klipklop" has come and gone, we can give due credit to the engineers actively en- gaged in the production. Wilbur En- gel, e'34; Bill Roper, Ag. e'34; Harold Jury, e'35; and J. Thorel, m'34 were members of the cast. Bob Ball, e'35; Roland Biersach, m'35; and Ken Wol- laeger, m'34; were members of the ensemble, the last two as members of the fairer sex. Paul Corp, m'33, formed an integral part chestra. Harold Hansen, the role of the accordion orchestra for the Prom. of the or- '3 5, played man in the According to reports, the entire group had a swell beer party on Fri- day night of show week out at the Watertower. J. Dibble, c'3 5, head of the stage crew, is of the opinion that they were the homliest bunch of chorus girls he's seen in a long time. The stage crew hollered themselves hoarse trying to get the girls to smile sweetly, which, of course, was prac- tically impossible. The unofficial back- stage slogan for the show was "You're a big girl now, keep your skirts oo0. 0. ENGINEERS GET "W ' AWARDS Major and minor "W" awards were announced at the meeting of the student athletic board on Wed- nesday, March 29. The engineers are well represented. Among those receiving awards are: Maurice Jansky, e'35, hockey; Donald Anderson, m'33, gymnastics; Thomas Bardeen, e'3 3, swimming; Tony Traskell, m'35, swim- ming; Kenneth Youngchild, ch'33, wa- ter polo; Robert Salmon, m'36, Allan Cole, c'36, and Lloyd Severson, m'36, wrestling; and James Gillies, ch'36, hockey. ENGINEER'S BLARNEY BEST Arthur B. Magidson, c'34, who re- cently won the privilege of repre- senting the University of Wisconsin in the Northern Oratorical League finals at Iowa City, also won first place in the finals. Only three other men from Wisconsin have ever taken first place, the men being A. Reis, R. Lafollette, Sr., and S. Tracy. OUR FACULTY RECEIVES BOUQUET The engineering faculty of the University of Wisconsin took honors lately when a check of "Who's Who in Engineering" revealed the fact that Wisconsin ranks sixth in the number of outstanding engineers produced in the last decade. The survey covered 130 colleges and universities in the United States and Canada and is therefore extensive enough that the distinction given Wisconsin may he called truly cosmopolitan. In the Middle West, only two schools, Mich- igan and Illinois, outranked Wiscon- sin. Their history is much older than that of the Badger campus and there- fore we need feel no chagrin that others in the Big Ten have been called better. Massachusetts Tech is first and Cornell is second. Both of these schools concentrate on engineering. The Wisconsin Engineer lad- f_-) - - ! 122 11qkwl 1i I X. I
