Dr. J. D. Forrester Tells How MSM Is Unique Among Most Mining Schools

By J. D . Forrester October, 1950 The Department of Mining Engineering at Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy is fundamentally established to offer comprehensive academic instruction in the broad engineering areas of production and development of mineral materials of the earth's crust. Most readers of this article are generally aware of this fact. To best accomplish such an over-all training objective and , at the same time, meet the needs and wishes of many students for an opportunity to secure instruction along particular semi-specializations, the Mining Department considers that the whole program of work is most advantageously presented by making available three optional fields of engineering study, namely: Mining (production and exploitation practices of securing metals and nonmentals ; including coal, specifically) .

Mining Geology (methods of exploration and development for metals and nonmetals).

Petroleum Engineering (production and development practices for recovery of petroleum and natural gas).

Ample Basic Training This distinction and classification of fields of professional enterprise does not constitute an unusual plan-of-operation as it is accepted as a sound academic engineering procedure by many mining educators and, accordingly, is in effect in several mineral industry schools. It affords a means of gIVIng ample basic training in the engineering sciences and , also, the opportunity for special work which any student may elect as his desire.

However, Missouri School of Mines is unique among most mining schools in that special reference is made in Mining Department c urricula to required train¡¡ ing in Safety Engineering , T echnical Writing , and other courses of similar character which have been proved to be extremely important in conducting industrial operations . The various Mining Department courses of instruction , ranging from elementary, undergraduate types through those of

graduate caliber , are well-rounded and complete .

An active research program has been d eveloped recently in Mining Engineering. Several important contributions have been made as a r esult of the experimentation which has been conducted and , further , the program is serving splendidly as a complement to the Department's undergraduate instructional work.

The research enterprise, in general , has been described previously by the writer in the Alumnus of January- F ebruary, 1948.

An undergraduate student body of 360 and a graduate enrollment of 29 men are partial evidence of the success which is attending both graduate and undergraduate ventures in the Mining Department. Graduate students from

Dr. J. D. Forrester many schools, such as Stanford , University of California, New Mexico School of Mines, Iowa State College , Michigan College of Mines, University of Illinois , have been attracted to Missouri School of Mines and are now enrolled in the Mining D epartment.

Undergraduate st.udents com e from many states and foreign countries though the predominant number are registered from Missouri and Illinois.

Excellent Facilities By the intere st and encouragement of the Board of Curators and the active support of the administrative officers of t.he Uni -

versity, the department has f ound it possible to establish e xcellent facilities and equipmer.: in all areas of the instructioil ;;;.l program .

For exampl e, '~Vll l' s ouri School of Mines maintains an Experimental Mine and Quarry Plant which is unique among mineral industry schools as a lab oratory facility for instruction and research. It is situated 1 % miles from the main campus and, thus, is in addition to the other equipment of the department which is similar to facilities commonly used by most mining and petroleum colleges. Because of this proximity to the campus, together with the degree to which it has been established, M. S. M. men are afforded the unrivalled opportunity to experience training in a field laboratory of a type not made available to students of other mining schools. Today, the plant is comprised of about 1000 feet (linear) of underground openings, a dimension stone quarry, a crushed stone quarry, and an engine-house, shop, warehouse, change-house , explosives m agazine, and cap-house . Moderll mining machinery including compressors, genera tors , drills, bulldozerfront end loader, and undergrounr! rocker-shovel loader have been installed and serve as student equipment for training in underground and surface mining practice. Two station wagons are lIsed for transportation to and from the mine.

Mining Department Staff The Mining Department staff at Missouri School of Mines realizes its responsibility of maintaining the excellent reputation which the alumni have earned for the school. The individual staff members are versatile and, as a group , comprise one of the best bodies for mining and petroleum engineering instruction in the United States. The writer welcomes this opportunity to present them to old and new alumni.

They are as follows: Associate Professor D. R. Schooler, or " D. R. " as he is affectionately known b y many, is a graduate of M. S. M. and is the " wheel-horse" of the staff. H e has had many years of coal and metal mining experience as well as about ten as a teacher. His forte ' is mining m ethods with special emph asis on coal mInlilg (Continu ed on Page 9)

Dr. Thomas A. Brady of Missouri U. Makes Principal Speech at Parents' Day Program The an nua l Parents' D ay Program was h eld on October 7, a nd following the traditional pattern of the past several years, the p arents registered in Parker Hall durin g the morning of the 7th and then visited the various exhibits a rran ged in the laboratories about the campus.

At noon the parents had luncheon w ith their children , and in the afternoon at tende d the footba ll game between Maryville State College a nd the Miners. Th e Miners won, 14 to O. Dr. Thomas A. Brady, vice-president of the University of Missouri , made the principal address at the Parents' Da y Banquet in the gym nasium. His speech, which was vigorou sly app la ud e d , was certainly appropr iate to these troubled times.

Parents of Missouri School of Mines stud ents n ee d have no fear about the quality of professional training which their sons or daughters w ill receive, Dr. Brady said.

The records made b y the g r a duates of th e school speak w ith emphasis of the throughness of the scientific an d engineering di scipline which st ud ents r eceive on the campus.

In providing professional training the School of Mines is not an extension of the family function.

It provides the costly eq uipment and the specialized types of instruction which a yo un g man or a yo un g woma n wo uld be most unlikel y to find available in the ho me . But in continuing t h e stu dent's training for citizenship, an obligation which the administration f eels very stron gly, the school is accepting a challenge to carryon a n instructional process which the parents have so well begun.

Dr. Brady gave heavy empha sis to t h e curr ent Communist threat a'ga inst personal freedom and aga in st th e Christian way of life. He sa id that t h e best protection aga inst sLlch a threat is an enlighten e d citizen r y -- a people who are well eno u gh informed about the truths of history and economics to be immune to the clever and insidiou s propaganda d evices of the Communists and their fellow-travelers.

The administration and the staff of the School of Mines ar e pledged to ¡g ive students the best scientific and engineering training possible, but t h ey clearly recogn ize a l so their respons ibility to act as ed u ca tion al

under their guidance in providing the kind of training in hi story and economics in particular and in all

Dr. T h om as A. B r a d y

foster -parents of the y oung people courses in general which will tend to make for b etter citizenship in these critical times.

Dr. Brady warned that it is only through i¡g norance that we may lose o ur freedom.

A Faculty Committee, headed by Professor E. W. Carlson, '26, Professor of Structural Engineering at MSM, was in charge of the program.

O pen House t o Be Held at U. S. Burea u of Mines R. G . Knickerbocker, '13, in ch arge of the U. S. Burea u of Mines l abo r atories in Rolla and Dean CLlrtis L. Wilson of the School of Mines h ave arranged for an open house for a dvanced students in mining a nd metallurgy to visit the Burea u of Mines l aboratories from 1 :00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on D ecember 4 , 1950. About 40 mining students and 70 m etallurgy students are ex p ected to visit the l aborator y a t that time.

On the arra n gement committee, "Nick" h as appointed T . R. Graham '3 4, L. T. McElvenny, and A. L. John s of the Bureau of Mines.

This is the secon d open hou se the bureau has arra n ge d for the convenience of the upper class students at the school.

L ocally , the office is known as the " New York Extension. " Grand Junction is an important center for the activities of th e Commission.

A visit to Shoshone M ine and Darwin Mine, Anaconda subsidiaries at Tecopa and Darwin, California respectively, resulted in making the acquaintance of Joel H. Teel , '47 and John Joh n son, '50 . T h e former is a metallurgical engin eer a t Darwin but was doing some test work at the Shoeshone Concentrator. Johnson is on th e mining staff at Darwin .

The Engineers' Club of St. Louis, the oldest such club in the U.S.A. , was org anized in 1868.

Its membership as of May 31 , 1950, was 2091. An attractive and very useful feature of the yearbook is the inclu"ion each y ear of the individual picture of ea ch member and his residence and e mplo y ment date. The e n ginee ring employment value of Club membership to th e s tud e nt and young engineer is shown by the curre nt listing of membe rs as employ ed w ith 972 different firms or ind ividua l s in e ngin eering or relate d work in St. Louis and vic ini ty . Also if the engin ee ring stu dent join :; the cl u b d uri n g or b efore his junior y ear h e will have his picture in the current yearbook as a means of introduction and identification.

Junior Membership in the Club is open to engineering stud e n ts from Freshmen on up who are under 30 years of age . Th e entran ce fee for Junior m embers is $10.00 with annua l non-r esiden t du es of $5 .00 or reside nt dues of $ 15.00. The Junior Member h as a ll th e privileges of the Club including the right to vote and participate in club activities including th e recreational facilities in th e cl ub build i ng and in e ngagin g in bowling , chess , brid ge

Foreign Students at M. S. M. Get Together

International Group Has Many Members More than 50 students from foreign countries at Missouri School Mines have organized an international group on the campus, the object of which is to promote friendship and understanding among aU of the nations and with the American students, according to Emin L .

Arsan of Istanbul, Turkey, who is president of the organization.

The group meets every two weeks on the campus and sponsors a radio program over station KTTR in Rolla on different nations for one hour each w eek. Fifteen minutes of the program are devoted to India and India n students, fift ee n minutes to Turkey and Turkish students and. th irty minutes are devoted to other countries. Turkey ha s the lan?;est number of students h ere, thirteen in a ll. India is next with six students and the r em a ining are distributed among 23 other co untries.

Every two weeks the foreign students meet as a body and u sually atte nd ance runs abou t fifty w ith fn terest growin g. Arsan stated that his ,goal is to get more American s tudents interested in the program .

H e stated that the American stude nts do not consider things in tern a tion a l where. as a matter of fact .

American interests are becom ing more international every day .

Arsan married an American girl, the fo r mer Jean Miller of Columbus, Ohio where Arsan attended school before coming to Rolla. H e will complete work for his degree in about one year and he and lii s wife will then r eturn to Turkey.

Some of the for eign students have brough t their wives with them. One of these is Cevat Yali, Istanbul, Turkey, who enrolled this fall ~s a graduate student in Civil Engin eering. They made the ir trip to America a honeymoon affair and flew from Istanb ul to New York City , leaving ther e at 3:45 p .m. on Septem ber 17 , and arriving in N ew York City at 5:00 p.m. on S eptem ber 18. They reached Rolla on September 20. Yali is studying for a Master's degree a t the School of Mines majoring in highway a nn a irport construction.

Following gra duation h e hopes' to work for a yea r with some state highway department, as permitted by immigration regulations, to gai n experie nce in American road building methods.

Both Ml'. and Mrs. Yali attended Roberts College in Istanbul. Mrs .

Yali's f ather operates a f arm of 950 ac r es in Tur k ey, r aisi n g cotton a nd w h eat. She was impressed with the ease w ith which llou sekeepin g ca n

be carried on in America where everything comes in can s. Both have been impressed by the friendly attitude of all of those with whom they have come in contact [-, ~ re in AmericR .

La st year, one of the Turk ish boys, Ismail Hakki Arman of Bol u , Turkey decided to get married in Turkey by proxy and bring his wife to Am erica. This h e accomp lished, somewhat to the m ystification of the photographer who was ca lled to take p ictures of the el aborate wedding ceremony in Turkey, and who could not understand the a bsence of the 'groom. However, on r ea chin g Rolla both the bride and groom were somewhat worried as to whether or not this proxy marriage woul d be rocognized in A m erica. and to make everything l egal decided to get married again h ere in Rolla. Th is pose d a problem fo r officials at the Court House who were n ot certain at first that a marriage ceremony in Ro lla wo uld be legal in Turkey ; but after co nsultation with Judge Sam Hess of the Probate Court, h e decided t hat th e marriage w o uld be perfectl y legal and in order, and the second m arriage ceremony was performed. Arman completed work for hi s B ac h elor of Science degree and is now doin g graduate work at th e U nive r sity of Oklahom <l
