VOLL, Ph.B., '17 South Bend, Indiana President of the Alumni Association OCTOBER, 1935 THOUSANDS of years ago, a skin-clad workman pounded away witli a cobblestone on a slab of hard rode In a few years, that slab might be passably square and smooth. Today, busy machines, supervised by trained workmen, pare off crisp, curling ribbons from whirling blocks of steel, as one would unwind ribbon from a spool, shaping the metal to a thousand purposes—^to an accuracy within a few ten-thousandths of an inch. CARBOLOY— a modern tool material developed by General Electric research —^has made possible this speed, this precision. It cuts materials hitherto unworkable—cuts faster and holds its edge longer than steel tools — can be run at red heat without losing its temper. CARBOLOY is only one of the contributions made to improved industrial processes by G-E research—research that has saved the public from ten to one hundred doUars for every doUar earned for General Electric GENERAL A ELECTRIC ^^^8 .,.. • "i A/ SPECIAL LOW ROOM /V847 RATES.
