. . . What? An Engineer?

Increased rumors of several unidentified creatures — creatures resembling "girls" — have been circulating on the Engineering campus for some time. With the help of the Society of Women Engineers it didn't take TECH long (there were more than anticipated) to locate one, and here she is . . . lovely Miss Lois Backer—one of 23 charming women engineering students who are adding a touch of grace to our previously homogeneous enginering campus.

Lois was valedictorian

of her Roanoke

High

School class,and she is now a 4.5 plus Genera! Engineering freshman whose domestic talents acquired, during five years of 4-H, should appeal to every engineer. Her beauty is self-radiating, but just for the records, she has been a Dolphin Queen semi-finalist as well as a Miss Woodford County contestant in the Miss America preliminaries. Only one problem remains—where can TECH find another photographer? . . . Ours has found a new hobby—"Creature Watching"! As a matter of fact, where is the rest of the staff? . . .
