Romana for the uae of their esra when he bad something important to aay. But when Harry Neary talks machinery, on any occasion, engineera and uaera of turblnea, pumps, compressors and gear* gladly cock both ears and listen. Hla conscientious advice on applica tion, installation and maintenance of such equipment is filtered through a background of almost 30 years of liv ing with these problems. He Joined De Laval in 1923, hat shouldered the responsibilities of chief test engineer, research and design engineer, service and maintenance engineer. Since 1948, he's been De Laval's special technical adviser on users' prob lems. And it's just that all-important user angle he takes in his article on turbine maintenance, p 108. Harry began hit.studies in Trenton, and it baa been his headquar ter! ever since starting with De Laval. Mechanical and heat-power engineering courses at Drexel were completed in 1932. THE BLACK OANO (engineering dept to landlubbers) Is where Matt Jones got his start. Ha pul in eight years on tugs, submarines and battleships before com ing ashore for good. Since seagoing days he's been asst,chief and chief, aupt of power and maintenance and for a change, personnel and production man ager in the laundry and dry-cleaning industry. And he turned down a top job in one of tho East's largest laundries to go back to Cod's country--Texas. Dsek in that great state, he took on two jobs in the hospital field. At Baylor Mott lom* Hospital for something over four years, he garnered the experiences he recounts on pp 105-107. Now in sales work with headquarters at Dallas, he takes a typical .Texas poke at us New Yorkers--aaya we were aorta alow in putting together hla article. As he puts It, "I should have come up to New York to see you (allows.

Triple-Auto matic Steam Turbines" (Feb 1950). He's with us again on the subject of automatic extraction -- this lime with practical helps for figuring these some times complex cycles' (p 96). He speaks with authority, for hla work with General Electric's medium steam-turbine department, at Lynn, Mass., gives him responsibility for steam design of all land turbine propositions. Pollard ie a native of Lynn, prepared E V feltord there for MIT (BSME, 1917). Ho holds a professional license In Massachusetts, la a junior member of ASME. His working interest in steam turbines carries over to writing about them--he's author of many technioa! papers and articles in addition to those appearing in our favorite publication. _ ASS CUT------- S
