THAT FINISHING TOUCH.. erected during the Christmas holid nen are Clifton Tager, left, and I Brothers erected it. (Staff photo b Student De, Lithograph Robert Hunter, who is stu ondary education and is taking year, has devised or "invented He employs formica instea pound pressure press he turns tones and effects. An artist by temperament he is a lithographer by skill and train ing already, having obtained his Master of Fine Arts from the Uni versity of Oregon. The new lithographic process is readily adapted for small schools, Mr. Hunter believes. A major advantage is that no dangerous chemicals that can burn skin or clothing are used as with etching and other lithographic pro cesses. He has his working nook at the Richland Art School adjoining the Columbia Museum of Art. The process is roughly as fol lows: Taking a piece of formica, a rela tively new and very hard material whi-h is used in making many of today's breakfast corner tables, he cuts this to the size paper he wants to print on. Then he roughens the smooth formica surface with sand )aper. This makes indentations in the surface. Next he draws with a China black grease pencil or even a child's crayon the forms he wishes to use in his finished print. He does this drawing for each color in the priocess. Then he pours acacia gum, a clear liquid bought at most drug stores, over' the formica andl its dle sign. Then he wvashes this wvith water. Next he rolls the formica plate with an ink roller of the color he desires. The ink sticks only to the p)art rubbed or drawn wvith a crayon. Next he takes 50 weight couver paper, moistens it, and lays it flat on the formica plate. Then he inserts the plate and the paper under -a small screw-type press and gets his impression. Wood blocks or linoleum blocks used in lithography can only be used once because they are en graved or cut away. Not so the formica which is extremely hard and can be smoothed or roughened up quite easily at little cost to be used over and over again. In fact, the new Hunter technique has something of bo0th engraving and offset. The process is repeated for each c'olor~ wanted. Rogers To Speak To Clariosophics Tuesday Night The Rev.

George Lincoln asks: What do metallurgists do in a chemical company? CHARLES I. SMITH, JR. received his B.S. Ch.E. from V.P.I. in 1943, served in the Navy as an engineer officer, and joined Du Pont's Engineer ing Department in 1946. Since then he has ad vanced steadily through a number of interesting assignments at various Du Pont plants. Today Charlie Smith is technical superintendent of Du Pont's Newport, Delaware, Plant, Pigments Department. Metallurgists and Metallurgical Engineers can find some of Charlie Smith's challenging new problems described in "Engineers at Du Pont." For a free copy of this booklet write to E.

LINCOLN, JR. expects to receive his B.S. in met allurgical engineering from Lehigh University in 1957. George is active in sports, vice president of his junior class, and a partici pant in many other cnmpus activities. He's starting his employ ment investigations early, for he feels that the selection of an employer is one of the most important decisions in a mnan's career. ,harlie Smith answers: They have an almost endless variety of interesting problems to face, George. As a student of metallurgy you know that about two-thirds of all known chemical elements are metals. Many of them are revealing valu able new applications, when highly purified on a com mercial scale. Du Pont is greatly interested in several metallic and semi-metallic elements. My own experience at Du Pont ranges from work on titanium pigments, to metallic titanium production, and to the ultra-pure silicon used in transistors. You can appreciate some of our metallurgical problems when I point out that impurities in transistor silicon have to be below one part in 100 million. That's equivalent to one pound of impurities distributed through a train of ore cars twenty miles long! Some of our metallurgists carry out fundamental research on new metals, and, in the development stage, they frequently operate pilot plants for producing them. Other metallurgists study problems relating to engi neering materials used in construction, carry out re search on intergranular corrosion, or investigate fatigue relationships encountered in dynamic, high-pressure operations. You'll find many challenging opportunities in every phase of metallurgy at Du Pont, George. etter-Tasting smoke xclusive Accu-'Ray ESU taste, Firm and pleasing to the lips satis- . . . mild yet deeply satisfying to more the taste - Chesterfield alone as other, pleasure-packed by Accu-Ray. erE& r tre._ ect. acked
