Anthony Donadio, who takes the part of the hero, Ralph Rackstraw, has been for three years a featured soloist Avith the University Glee Club. Jerry Heinlen, Captain Corcoran, last year played the part of Antonio in the Gondoliers and is also a Glee Club soloist. James Purcell, president of the Glee Club, plays the part of Dick Dead- eye this year in the Pinafore as well as he played the part of Don Alhambra last year in the Gondoliers, which means that "Jim" plays the part of a despised hunchback to perfection. There are, in addition, many members of the Glee Club in the chorus, and the chorus is the back-bone of any Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. Dave Curtin, who takes the part of Sir Joseph Porter, though a new comer to the ranks of the Savoyards, easily justifies his presence among them with his splendid portrayal of "the monarch of the seas." Richard Conrardy and William Z. Murrin, the Boatswain's Mate and the Boatswain do a great deal toward mak­ ing the .show a success. Mr. Birder gives the former credit for being the outstand­ ing authority on Gilbert and Sullivan in the cast, and the Pinafore will be the fifth operetta by G. and S. that Mr. Murrin vdll have appeared in.

Even when local ther­ mometers dropped to a new low and Jack Frost himself sought an open hearth, these stalwarts braved the bitter wind and stuck to their posts. On chill nights when it seemed as if the very fish must be frozen along with the lake in one solid block of ice, weird lights from the lake vouclied that these men were still there determined to outlast the fish. But Avhat seemed to spectators to be more surprising than the rugged consti­ tutions of these anglers was the fact that their patience could be rewarded and their desire for aquatic animals satiated by fish that never measured more than a meagre six inches.

36 Kingsbury Ordnance Chief Addresses Chem. Engineers

Tom Degnan

The March meeting of the student chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers was held last Mon­ day night in conjunction with the month­ ly meeting of the St. Joseph Valley Sec­ tion of the American Chemical Society. The speaker was Mr. Jacob Borab, head chemist of the Kingsbury Ordnance Plant. •-t^^r jfr^ President Bob Finneran opened the meeting and announced the appointment of a nominating committee for the elec­ tions to be held next month. Professor Eich then made an award to the junior in Chemical Engineering Avith the high­ est scholastic average for the freshman JIKT and sophomore years, Robert Carnes «s& Blackman.

Mr. Borah's speech was entitled "Ex­ plosives . and their Applications." He explained that the oldest writings ex­ istent in the western world on explo­ ^^ sives were written by Eoger Bacon in 1250, when he wrote about black powder, made from saltpeter and sulfur. The iirst commercial application of explosives •^^ A^ was made in 1627 in the mining industry. The revolutionary development in ex­ plosives came in 1870, when Alfred Nobel discovered dynamite. His father, a Swedish chemist, was engaged in mak­ ing torpedoes to be used in the Crimean More aluminum up there, War. Young Alfred took over the plant and tried to make nitroglj^cerine on a less in new telephones commercial scale. His first plant was blown up, but he did not become discour­ aged. Next, he had trouble in transport­ ing the explosive, since jarring detonated the charge. The problem was solved -for VICTORY! when the nitroglycerine was absorbed in a porous material.
