Calvin W. Rice Speaks
to Seniors in EnSpeaker is from Dept.
gineering
of Math, at Chicago

Calvin W. Rice, secretary of the
American Society for Mechanical
Engineers, in an address to the members of the senior class in Mechanical
Engineering Monday morning at
Dicker Hall, stated that the newspapers of the couuntry publish too
many crime stories. He also spoke
before the luncheon meeting of the
same organization which was held
in the palm room of the Phoenix
hotel at noon.
World vision and its relation to the
student engineer was the theme of
Mr. Rice's address. He advised the
students to read the newspapers regularly, but to exclude all crime and
scandal. By way of illustration, he
displayed marked copies of various
newspapers of the country in comparison with the papers of England
and South America, where he recently attended engineering conferences
at Rio de Jenario. He stated that
the public is largely responsible for
this condition, in that they demand
only the sensational stories.
Those present at the luncheon were
Mr. Rice. Dean Anderson. Professor
Anderson, Mr. Nunan, and the senior
engineers, C. G. btamatalt, U. U.
