NJ MEN CUT QUEER CAPERs
Initiation Of Twenty Husky Tigers
AmuSes OnlOOkers.

Friday the thirteenth proved ex-
tremely unfortunate for some of the
NJ men who were initiated yesterday
Probably the most unfortunate of all
was Leon H. Albus Dressed up as a
baby with short skirts. long stockings,
little white cap. and a milk bottle.
Albus nearly froze while Peter Vilkas,
the ford father" wheeled him around
in a cart made out of soap box. The
poor baby had rather hard time as
the father was so awkard-Albus says
it was pure maliciousness-and dump
ed him on the floor of the Academic
Hall several times and delighted in
hauling him up and down the steps.
Stanley Andrews. some insinuate
has had professional experience in call
ing trains judging from the way he
called them this morning. He was
dressed in one of the blue uniforms of
the cadet corps and sold papers as an
avocation to calling trains. George
c"Babe") Ruth also had the role of
baby. M
James E. (''Brick') Travis made a
rather husky hod-carrier and packed
his bricks and dinnerpail manfully
George Coffey and George Browning
went fishing in the pond back of the
Academic Hall. They had large bas-
ket to carry the fish in and each bore
a sign saying TASK me-" After the
first two or three times no one cared
to ask them, though.

The engineering students of the I'm
iversity are planning the biggest eel
ebration in the history of st. Pat,
day observance for this year. TIL,
big parade, with stunts and floats. will
be given for the first time in fou,
years. 1t will have the largest crowd
the longest parade. the livliest time
and the best all around celebration ev
er given at Missouri, and there will bt
something new and amusing ever,
hour of the day. according to d. L
Adams, publicity chairman of the st
Pats Board.
DR. Charles P. Steinmetz, the eletri.
cal wizard and inventor, has been in
vited to attend the celebration. He
has been elected honorary member OF
the St. Pats Guard and will be knight.
ed during the ceremony on the West
Campus. DR.. Steinmetz is the head OF
the General Electric Company OF
Schenectady. n. Y, and is an author,
ity on mathematics and electrical en-
gineering.
This will be the first celebration
since the naturalization of the Guard
of st. Patrick. Missouri engineers
were the originators and promoters of
the st. Patrick idea. They called the
first convention in the fall of 1919 and
with the aid of representatives from
other schools formed the national Or
gsnization of St. Patrick's Guard. The
University of Missouri is now the nat
ional headquarters of this organiza-
ton.
Last year plans for a memorial to
engineers of this school, who lost their
way between the Engineering Build
ing and Switzler Hall was planned.
A stone fountain was installed at the
celebration last year. The memorial
will be finished this year with the ad-
dition of a large brick and concrete
bench beneath a brick pergola. This
will be surrounded by brick walks
leading to the two buildings. The
bronze tablet, which at present rests
on a tempory pedestal behind the
fountain, will be placed in the wall of
the bench facing the fountain.
Following the parade, the stunts on
the campus and the knighting cere-
mony, the laboratories of the School
of Engineering will be opened.
There will be seen the latest devel-
opments in electricity, cooking on ice,
low voltge welding, and perpetual
motion. In the high tension room will
be shown the man who takes a million
volts as easily as the baby takes his
bottle. He will snatch lightning from
the air to light his cigarette. The
chemical laboratory will show a vari-
ETY. of chemical phenomena. including
the making of liquorless liquor, fire.
less fires, poisonous gases and explod-
ing bombs used in modern warfare.
