Alfred Vincent, head of the relief plate laboratory, and Dr. Charles W. Bennett, who developed the photo-cast process, answered ques- tions of the publishers and ex- plained the work of the relief plate laboratory. Visitors had many questions for the crew of the web press after watching a short run of four-color printing on the Webendorfer offset press. George Williams, head of the offset laboratory, showed the guests through the laboratories adjacent to the press which are used for preparing copy and plates for the run. In the Graphic Arts Research Division, Virgil Barta and staff had prepared a series of displays showing the areas of research be- ing undertaken and the methods used to do the work. Most of the two and a half days spent in Rochester were taken up by meetings of the publishers. Robert Vogeler, who was a prisoner of the communist Hun- garian government for 17 months, addressed the group at a dinner at the Hotel Rochester. Following the tour of RIT, the publishers had a reception and tour of the Eastman House. Snowball Dance Enjoyable Affair Amid a motif of snowflakes and wonderland RIT's initial off-the- campus dance drew a large attend- ance and restrained approval last Saturday night at Sheridan Hotel's Starlite Roof. Syl Novelli and his orchestra gave out with a variety of pleasing music in the popular vein as danc- ing shoes responded to the inviting tunes. The cozy accommodations were enhanced by table talk and refreshing rejoinders. The annual semi-formal presen- tation was smoothly organized and sponsored by Phi Sigma. Phi and Delta Omicron. The occasion set a high mark in entertainment and introduced a series of similar affairs. Distinguished Alumnus Had Early Training Here Clifford Ulp, supervisor of the Department of Applied Art, had a visit recently by one of the out- standing graduates of his depart- ment when Norman Kent ( AA '25) stopped in. Kent was in Rochester to ad- dress the Rochester Print Club of which Kent is a founding member. From their conversation Mr. Ulp learned that Kent's career has been one of great variety and accomp- lishment. After leaving the Institute, Kent went to Geneva where he became an assistant professor of art for Hobart and William Smith colleges. Since that time he has been man- aging editor of the American Art- ist magazine, director of art for the foreign editions of the Readers Digest. At present lie is spending his time at free lance work. Besides his art work, Kent has been a prolific author of articles and books in the art field. He has co-edited two books : Watercolor Demonstrated and The Relief Print. Drawings by American Artists, and The Book of Edward A. Wilson are two books bearing his name as author. X-Ray Unit Due For Final Visit Monroe County's mobile Public Health Service x-ray unit will visit Rochester Institute of Technology for the second and last time in the present school year on Feb. 5, 6, 7. At that time, all students who did not receive chest x-rays when the unit visited here last November will be required to report for this service. A chest x-ray is a neces- sary part of the physical examina- tion of every Institute student. Tentative schedules have been set up by the medical department and have been sent out by the registrar's office to the department supervisors for approval or pos- sible changes. When arrangements have been completed, each student will know when he is to report for the x-ray. In addition to students, faculty and staff members of the Institute, who have not been previously x-rayed, are asked to participate in the program. The x-rays will be processed at Iola Sanitorium and the results may be considered negative if in- formation to the contrary is not re- ceived by the student or the facul- ty or staff member. If there is a question regarding the result of the first x-ray, the person will be re- quested to take a second. Approximately half of RIT per- sonnel was x-rayed when the unit visited RIT last fall. Reveals Job Outlook The U. S. Department of Labor last month issued the 1951 Occu- pational Outlook Handbook. The job outlook, in brief, is this: In great demand are: elemen- tary teachers, engineers and agri- cultural specialists. Personnel jobs may be hard to get. A full contingent of spectators is expected to welcome Coach Lee Fox's victorious cagers who con- tinued their winning ways last Fri- day night in downing Fredonia 81 to 63. The triumph stretched RIT's hoop record to five consecu- tive wins since they first opened the season with a pair of defeats. Coach Lee Fox lauds the fine team play and smooth ball hand- ling that have so substantially con- tributed to the team's success. He points out that pressure on the starting five from newcomers to the Institute varsity p r o v ides strength in depth, adding that the jayvee encounter also promises exciting court action for the spec- tators. Wrestlers to Meet Ithaca In tonight's triple header, RIT grapplers face one of their tough- est matches of the season against Ithaca. It is recalled that Ithaca has a draw with Lockhaven which soundly trounced the C o r n e 11 squad. Cornell whipped RIT by a score of 26 to 8. The Institute's record stands at three won and two lost. RIT was the victor of matches with Buffalo University, Western Reserve, and Cortland and have dropped deci- sions to Cornell and Case Institute. Tonight's card gives the stu- dents and faculty of the Institute a chance to see both of their var- sity teams in action together for the first time. Return Game With Brockport What should be one of the best basketball games of the season is on tap for next Friday night when Brockport State Teachers comes to Rochester. The Teachers defeated RIT 63 to 55 in the opening game of the season for Coach Fox's basketeers, and they'll be out to even the count. Following the loss to Brockport, RIT lost to Utica before swinging into their five-game winning streak with victories over Queens University, Geneseo Teachers, Mc- Master University, Potsdam Teachers and Fredonia. An impending shortage of plant- owners and increased costs of pro- duction were cited by Dr. Mark Ellingson to the New York State Publishers as two major reasons for increased attention to improve- ments to the graphic arts. Dr. Ellingson spoke to approximately 100 representatives of the New York State Publishers Association preceding an afternoon tour of the graphic arts facilities on Jan. 15. After the original tour which included five stops in the various parts of the department and divi- sion, many of the publishers crowd- ed into the machine composition laboratory to watch the latest model Linotype and Intertype slug casting machines being operated by the Teletypsetter. Watching these machines being operated at high speed without an operator sitting at the keyboard was one of the highlights of the tour for the visitors. At the other end of the hall, ex- perts from Eastman Kodak Corn- RIT's rampaging basketball team will be the top draw on tonight's triple header of sports enter- tainment at Jefferson High School. Coach Lee Fox, front row center, is flanked on the left by Al Landsman and Bob Adams, with Bruce Henry and Gene Kendrot at the right. Standing is Hank Westphalen, Arnie Bishop, Bob Parry, Ronnie Freiman, Harold Bauer, and Pete Kubarycz. Triple Header Sports Card Tonight Features Basketball, Wrestling Institute fans will be feted to a three-course bill of fare at Jefferson High School tonight when the RIT varsity basketball squad meets the Ontario Aggies and the Jayvee hoopsters clash with a Bausch & Lomb squad.
