MONTANA SCHOOL OF MINES BUTTE, MONTANA

A Tribute To Charles M. Russell

M. S. M. Vision of a further destiny Fills my windows From the rocky peaks That tower about me. Golden glimmers from the lofty sunsets Drop on slanted beams through glass and stone; Learned mists surround my nights and wakings And link intangible beliefs with things well known. Rising cities, growning minds, expand beneath me, Echoes of material deeds resound And strike the flowing currents Of the air we do not see. Germs of future greatness Fling their embryonic forms In seeing desecration And, amidst sharp, petty storms, Youth unbridled strides and paths Of undenied revolts And vivifies the heartless halls From joyous, ringing throats. Grant, 0 God of Ultimate Goodness, Not perfection--no content-But the right to lead Youth onward- Thi gr at boon Your Grace has lent! - - Naomi G. Stemheim

INTRODUCTION

While Montana and Butte celebrate the Centennial, the Montana School of Mines observes its 64th class year. The history of Butte, of the mineral industry, and ofthe School of Mines has been inter-woven since 1900, when the doors of the college were first opened. In May, 1864, the first mining activity began inButte. Over the next 40 years, Butte grew into a boomtown under the influence of men like W. A. Clark, Marcus Daly, and Augusta Heinze. The first discovery in the Butte area was gold, mined from stream beds and quartz deposits in the hillsides. In the late 1860' s the search for silver began, boom which lasted into the 1890' s when the price of silver fell. Copper was first discovered in 1866, the active mining of which began in 1881. Since then, copper has been the lifeblood of Butte, as it has poured from the miles of tunnels far below the "Richest Hill on Earth." New and more economical mining methods have enabled Butte to become one of the world's most famous mining enterprises. It follows that Butte should be the home of one of the world's most famous mining schools. Synonymous with Butte and the mineral industry is the Montana School of Mines. The Morrell Act of 1862 provided for the establishment of state schools for instruction in agriculture and the mechanical arts. In 1889, and Enabling Act further provided for the appropriation of one hundred thousand acres of public land which was to be used for the establishment and maintenance of a state School of Mines. The state legislature chose the city of Butte as the location for the school, appointing a commission to prepare plans and specifications for the construction of the building. Thus, the present Main Hall, erected in 1896-7, was the original School of Mines building. The official opening of the school occured on September 11, 1900, at which time 39 students were enrolled. Indicating its growth, the campus of the School of Mines now comprises 12 buildings and boasts a student enrollment of ov r 400. As the home of the School of Mines, Butte has provided a practical background for the mineral engineers graduated in the 64 years of its existence. Since the School of Mines is brought into daily contact with the various phases of mining, milling, and melting, petroleum production, and with the men who are personally engaged in th different departments of these industries, the student cannot help absorbing considerable practical information and experience, which a ve y advantageous to him in subsequent- -in industry, in research, in teaching. Ac o dingly, th curriculum of the school embodies sound engineering fundamental , combined with much practica 1 experience. This background and training ha nabl g actuate of the School of Mines to occupy leading positions in the min ral indu t y. A a on equence, Montana School of Mines has a reputation thr ugh ut th w ld . Th C nt nnial c lebration is an important milestone from which the School f Min l k ba k upon a uccessful and colorful past and forward to a future f dv n m nt in th d lopment of the minerals industries and related fields.

FAITH OF THE ENGINEER I AM AN ENGINEER. In my profession I take deep pride, but without vainglory; to it I owe solemn obligations that I am eager to fulfill. As an Engineer, I will participate in none but honest enterprise. To him that has engaged my services, as employer or client, I will give the utmost of performance and fidelity. When needed, my skill and knowledge shall be given without reservation for the public good. From special capacity springs the obligation to use it well in the service of humanity; and I accept the challenge that this implies. Jealous of the high repute of my calling, I will strive to protect the interests and the good name of any engineer that I know to be deserving; but I will not shrink, should duty dictate, from disclosing the truth regarding anyone that, by unscrupulous act, has shown himself unworthy of the profession. Since the Ag of Stone, human progress has been conditioned by the genius of my professional forbears. By them have been rendered usable to mankind Nature's vast resources of material and energy. By them have been vitalized and turned to practical account the principles of science and the revelations of technology. Except for this heritage of accumulated experience, my efforts would be feeble. I dedicate myself to the dissemination of engineering knowledge, and especially to the instruction of younger members of my profession in all its arts and traditions. To my fellows I pledge, in the same full measure I ask of them, integrity and fair dealing, tolerance and respect, and devotion to the standards and the dignity of our p ofe sion; with the consciousness, always, that our special expertness carries with it the obligation to serve humanity with complete sincerity. - -Your Approach To Professionalism

Progress is the them of this yea 's Magma. This is entirely fitting because progress has been the guiding light and principal objective of Montana School of Mins since its beginning. For us, progress has been many-fold. It has meant th d velopment and almost constant modification of an educational program igned to meet the ever-changing needs of engineers engaged in the minerals industries. It has meant the stablishment and maintenance of high academic st nda ds and the offering of education of the highest quality possible within the means at ou disposal· W continue to provide educational facilities which allow u to r lize our educational bj ecti ves. We try unceasingly to provide our state n ou n tion with young people p epa ed to meet the cha Henges of the times, both in goo itiz n hip and prof siona l ability. The progress and outstanding hi m nt of ou graduat s t tify th d gr of success we have attained. In th b ginning, th . mu t b w thwhil ideas. Thoughtful organization t ffo t ppli d t th ight kinds of ideas invariably result in g e · Th for , l t u d di ate ou capabilities as well as our ~o ss th ough ontinu d v lopment of growth and excellence h ol of Mines.

Humanities The department of Humanities and Social Studies has its beginning in 1919 with the formation of the Department of English, Economics and History under Professor Walter C. Scott. For the first few years, Professor Scott taught English Composition, Economics and Technical English. Oratory was added in 1923, Modem European History in 1923, Debate in 1924, Speech in 1927, Spanish in 1920, French in 1923, and German in the 1930' s. Professor W. Clifford Laity, department head since Professor Scott's retirement in 1954, came to MSM in 1943 as an instructor of Naval History and Elementary Tactics. Professor William Chance joined the department four years later, and in 1947, James Albertson and Louise McBride were secured to teach German, French, and Spanish. In 1952, Mr. Frank H. Kelly joined the department as Assistant Professor of Economics and History. Dale E. Pinckney joined the department in 1955, as an Assistant Professor of Social Studies. Upon Mr. Pinckney' s resignation in 1963. William Roberts was selected to take his place and completed the department's faculty to its present number.

Department Of Mathematics Ma.thematics was one of the original departments which began classes in 1900. Na.than R. Leonard was then Acting President and Professor of Mathematics at MSM. Succeeding Leonard was Charles H. Bowman who became President and also taught in the Depa rtment of Mathematics. At that time George W. Craven became President of MSM and continued to teach in the Ma.thematics Department. He was joined by D. Charles McAuliffe as Instructor in Mathematics and Coach of Athletics who is now Dean of this College; Oscar A. Dingman joined the faculty as Instructor in Mathematics and remained at MSM until his death. Dr. A. J. Smith became head of the department in 1944 and presently occupies this position. Other members of this department include Miss Satter and Mr. Catenaro.

Department Of Physics One of the original departments which began classes in 1900 was Mechanics and Physics. It wasn't until 1930 that two separate departments were created to cover these fields. The Department of Mechanics and Physics first occupied 3 rooms on the 1st floor of Main Hall which was the only building on the campus at that time. The first catalog states that the lecture room for this department was provided with modern lecture room conveniences such as water, gas, electric current, etc. Charles H. Bowman was assigned to this department in 1901 and in 1906, upon the death of President Nathan R. Leonard, became President of MSM. While president he continued to teach in this department and in the Department of Mathematics. Dr. Nile became head of the Physics Department of 1944. It was in this same year that Rayworth F. Howe was listed as an Instructor in Physics, at which time he also had classes in mathematics and metallurgy. Mr. Howe is now Secretary of the MSM Alumni Association. The Physics- Petroleum Building was completed in 1953 when the department was moved from Main Hall to the new building. This is also the main headquarters for the seismograph. It is used by the entire Northwest area.

Seismograph Dr. Stephan W. Nile, A. B., Ph.D. became head of the Physics Department after the retirement of Dr. Shue. In 1942, Dr. Nile was appointed the collaborator for the U.S. Coastal and Genetics Survey, which later installed the complete seismograph station at our school. The first unit was a Wood-Anderson strong motion accelograph. In 1952 the present seismographs were added. These machines record the North-South, East-West, and vertical vibration of the earth. The seismographs measure the motion caused by a person stepping into the seismographs room. Ore trains passing our college and blasts from the Butte mines and open pit frequently show on the records. Some of the historical earthquakes that Dr. Nile has recorded are the Virginia City earthquake of 194 7 which was felt over 150 miles from the station, the Swan Lake and Toston quake in 1952, the Yellowstone quake of 1959 which extended 600,000 square miles and caused the tremendous slide in the Madison valley, and the Alaskan quake of 1964.

Department Of Chemistry For the undergraduate mineral industries engineer, chemistry is a systematic study of the fundamental principles of inorganic, analytical, organic, and physical chemistry. Also, the general student interested in chemistry can begin his academic training at the Montana School of Mines. Dr. Kenneth N. McLeod, Mr. Joseph Murry, and Dr. Keith Ensley now teach the courses offered by the Department of Chemistry.

Geology When MSM first opened its doors in 1900 the Geology Department was one of the six departments of the school. First known as the Department of Geology,and Mineralogy, it was under the direction of Alexander N. Winchell, who subsequently received international recognition as an author, educator, and mineralogist. In the year 1927, the Department of Geology and Mineralogy was officially renamed the Department of Geology. This name change was a preliminary step for the announcement of a degree curriculum in Geological Engineering which was authorized in 1928. The first Bachelor of Science degrees in geological engineering were awarded in 1929, with three students receiving the degree that year. The first Master of Science degree was awarded in 1931. Over the years many fine men have served the department; a few of them have become known na tionally and internationally. Among these are: Dr. Winchell, Dr. Perry, who is considered by many the greatest authority on Montana Geology today, Laurence L. Sloss, now Professor of Geology at Northwestern University, a.famous author, E. William Heinrich, Professor of Mineralogy and creator of the mineral collection at the University of Michigan, and Dr. Clapp who served as President of the school from 1918 to 1921. Today, the department has four full-time faculty members plus two teaching assistants, and offers a greater variety of undergraduate and graduate courses than ever before. With sixty-three years of proud history behind it, it still looks to the future, not into the past.

Department Of Mining Engineering The Department of Mining Engineering began in 1920 under the supe rvi sion of Mr. Theodore Simons. Since then, the department supervision has changed; currently it is headed by Mr. William Vine. The mining engineer is confronted with a continually changing situation because he must search of new sources of mineral-product supply farther a.field and deeper within the earth. The basic activity of the mining engineer begins after orebodies have been discovered and somewhat delineated; for he must design systems of men, machines, and techniques for the efficient and safe extraction of minerals from the orebodies. Therefore, his education must consist of the art of mining as developed through time and experience, as well as in the w rld of science which provides him with a continual stream of new knowledge of physical principles. The curriculum at the Montana School of Mines, as taught by Mr. Vine and Mr. Van Matre, prepares the mining engineering student to take his place as a servant of society in the continual maintenance and improvement of man's physical environment; prepares the student of analytical and creaative design for construction, production or operation; and inspires a sense of professional ethics.

Department Of Mineral Dressing The student in the Department of Mineral Dressing is taught the separation of materials through physical and chemical processes. In general, Mr. Donald W. McGlashan and Mr. Gordon Ziesing teach the student to evaluate existing process systems and to devise new systems for situations likely to be encountered in the complex and continuously changing activities of modern industry. Consequently, cooperative relations are maintained with industry by faculty and students of the Department of Mineral Dressing. In this way the need of new knowledge or re-evaluations of existing systems in materials separation is emphasized before the faculty and students alike.

Petroleum A Petroleum Engineering degree was first offered at MSM in 1946. The curriculum, follows closely the geology and mining curricula, except that getting oil or gas to the surface and into pipelines or refineries is added. The department, first headed by Assistant Professor John Bukvick, was housed in the Mill Building until completion of the Physics-Petroleum Building in 1953. Professor John Flugstad became department head in 1952. Succeeding him in 1954 was Douglas Harnish. Gustav Stolz became head of the department in 1963. The first class graduating in 1949 consisted of eight members. Since then eighty-nine students have received their B. S. degrees. MS degrees have been awarded since 1959.

Department Of Metallurgy One of the first departments of MSM in 1900 was Chemistry-Metallurgy. These two fields were separate in 1904 and became two separate departments. In 1919 the curriculum in metallurgical engineering was added. In 1906 the department was headed by Professor Ferdinand A. Schiertz and courses were offered in metallurgy of copper, gold and silver, and lead, assaying, electrometallurgy, and gas analysis. Arthur E. Adami, graduated from MSM in 1907 and his name first appears in a list of faculty for 1908 as an Instructor in Metallurgy. At this time the department was headed by Professor Frederick Lai st and was located in the basement of Main Hall. Curtis L. Wilson joined the metallurgy faculty in 1922. Dr. Wilson, that same year, retired from his position as Dean of the Missouri School of Mines at Folla, Missouri. John P. Spielman became head of the department in 1941. He is now Dean of Washington State College at Pullman, Washington. Ralph I. Smith, who obtained his MS from Montana School of Mines in 1933, joined the faculty in 1947 as an instructor. In 1949, Dr. J. G. Grunenfelder became head of the department. Dr. Frederick A. Hames joined the faculty as an Assistant Professor in 1950 and became head of the department in 1952. In 1957, Dr. CharlesW. Haynes became the department head, followed by Dr. Vernon Griffiths in 1959, Dr. Fathi Habashi joined the faculty at the Montana School of Mines in 1964 as associate Professor of Metallurgy.

Athletic Department Athletics at the Montana School of Mines just "grew" until 1923 when Dean McAuliffe became Dean of Athletics. Both Intramural and intercollegiate sports increased throughout the years. In 1956, Mr. McAuliffe was advanced to Dean. Mr. Simonich is the present Director of Athletics and Mrs. Sarsfield is the Physical Education instructor for women. The coaches, faculty, alumni and students are looking forward to the new coliseum.

Department Of Engineering Science The department of Engineering Science was changed to The Department of Mechanics and Electricity in 1957 under the careful supervision of Professor Zaderenko and assisted by Professor Kaufman. After assistant Professor Kaufman and Professor Zaderenko moved Professor Pugh became head of the department with Mr. Frank Young as an instructor. The Engineering Science Department provides courses in basic engineering such as Strength of Materials, Mechanics and Thermo-dynamics, required for other degrees at the college. The department will continue these courses and will add advanced courses in the fields of engineering science. Professor Stout is head of the department assisted by Mr. Young.

ANDERSON-CARLISLE TECHNICAL SOCIETY

The Anderson-Carlisle Technical Society of the Montana School of Mines is the student chapter of the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers. The society was formed in 1922 and qualified as a student chapter of AIME in 1943. It was named for two School of Mines students who lost their lives in World War I . Membership onsist of engineering students at Montana School of Mines who are either student as o iates or junior member of AIME. The object of the society is to promote among its members a self-sought, increasing knowledge of engin ering a it p rtains to the mineral industry in all its branches and to instill professional prid in th life work they have chosen. In keeping with this object the society each year presents various speakers, film , and other programs relating to n gin ring ubje t . Th Anderson-Carlisle Society ponsor "E-day " at the S hool of Mines, and is also r pon ibl for a joint meeting with the Montana Section of IME ev ry pring.

The American Society of Metals traces its history back to 1913 when the need for such an organization was recognized by Founder-Member illiam Woodside. The Society began with 12 members and has grown to its present 11 7 chapters and more than 34, 000 members. The vast majority of A. S .M. members reside in the United States and Canada. There are 1500 members in 50 foreign countries. Founded to provide a lively means of exchanging technical information, with strong empha is on the engineering materials, the A. S .M. performs an outstanding role in present day ngineering education. The educational functions of A.S.M. are many and varied. They include a full range of periodical and reference publications, home study courses in metals engineering, national and r gional Metal Shows, Congresses, and Conferences. On the Chapter level, more than 750 technical meetings per year serve the needs of 117 localities. ithin the A. S. M., one finds a tremendous aggregate of technical educational activity. Chapter formation of A. S .M. at Montana School of Mines began offically October 21, 1961, under the direction of Dr. Vernon Griffiths, Dr. Walter Hahn, and Prof, Ralph I. Smith. A group of 25 members and prospective members signed a petition requesting permission from th . S. M. National Organization to form a student chapter. The idea for a student chapter was re dily pted by the Director of Chapter and Member Relations. The hapter at Montana S hool of Mines went on records as a student group subject to all rights and privileges, as provided for, by th A. S. Charter.

Football history, beautiful girls, and prominent dignitaries highlighted the 1963 homecoming events. The annual event began Friday Night, October 25, 1963, at the bonfire with a pep rally and the announcement of Kitty Keane as our homecoming queen. On Saturday morning, the parade was a joyous display of floats and cars decorated by the many campus organizations. And on Saturday afternoon, the mighty Orediggers defeated Northern Montana College in a grueling gridiron game. Immediately after the game, a victory parade and a delicious barbeque filled the starving students and ardent supporters of the Mines. Homecoming happily ended Saturday night with a dance and with the crowning of the queen and the announcement of the princesses; Miss Jane Gibson, Miss Beth Jones, Miss Mary Pat Tiddy, and Miss Mary Clare Sullivan, Also, the M Club presented Mr. Edward Simonich, Sr. with a trophy as a token of thanks for his efforts to improve sports at the Montana School of Mines. The Montana School of Mines was honored by the presence of Senator Mike Mansfield, Representative Arnold Olsen, and the members of the 1927 football team.

This club is not restricted only to those from other countries, but can also be joined by students of the United States. This organization is widely known on campus for its participation in many of the affairs of the school and also its annual dance. This year the dance was successfully highlighted by the gala decorations and the fine music of "The Townsmen."

M-DAY FESTIVITIES "Tradition - - " a custom so long continued that it has almost the force of law." The full significance of the M-Day festivities is not fully known. It is comprised of a campus clean -up period, a picnic, a dance in the evening, (and a few minor infractions) plus elections, M Day is the time when students take that first deep sigh of fresh air before the nerve shattering final exams. All colleges, from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic, (including the Rockey Mountain area) have a spring recognition ceremony. Many of these functions turn into riot proportions. Considering the weather, the types of studies at M. S.M. and the appeal of the function to oncoming freshman, the M-Day ceremony has been a tremendous success for fifty years. One incident which occurred this year with staggering odds was a double tie. --one between Jack Weaver and Bob Toivonen for the A. S .M. President, and the other between Kent Taylor and Pat Marx for delegate. Mr. Marx and Mr. Toivonen emerged victorious after a run-off ballot.
