Product ol Phil's agile mind and clever hands. Its one-kettle-power turbine spun a homemade generator to light the lamps and turn the . factory wheels. And when you pushed the button (left) out popped a sample of the factory's product---a book of genuine Marmaduke Surfaceblow matches. That took aome ingenious gadgeiry inside the building and Phil had many hours ol fun working out the bugs. v. Saves 1/3 the Cost You pay only for the addition of the transfer bus ... not a complete set of duplicate switchgear with all of its ex pensive components. At least one-third is saved on entire installation. Saves 1/2 the Space Allis-Chalmers supplies transfer bus in same cubicle as switchgear, without adding cubicles . . . thus cutting floor space one-half. WHAT IS A TRANSFER BUS? It's a by-pass bus circuit that parallels the main switchgear bus . ... with means provided for switching loads to the transfer bus. Also makes it possible to withdraw and main* tain circuit breakers, or inspect main bus without power out age. This method proved by utilities in hundreds of ihstallations. . Ask an Allis-Chalmers engineer about transfer bus arrangements and what they can mean to your plant in savings and service. And learn too about the unusual features that make it so easy to install A-C switchgear. Call your nearby Allis-Chalmers district office, or write Allis-Chalmers, Milwaukee 1, Wisconsin. *-sm ALLIS-CHALMERS (Ml AOWFX Ateiondsr S Kufl COMPRESSOR KNOW-HOW la e trad)- of the Schramm family, and Leslie ;.^&\?B*S.c..h..r.o-r..n..m.....!.s....n..o...e..x..c..e--pt.i.o..n......H....is- --higoh-- *d college vacations were spent shop learning compressors from ..SrV.Mj 'ground up.

STRUCTURAL PIANNINO U a subject on which Andrew Hull speaks with authority, as you can see by turning to pp 80-83. He has been at it, In one way or another, since before his college days at Rensselaer (CE, 1934). In utility companies, contracting firms end engineering offices, he has gained experience in just about every phase of planning, design and construction. Even during a World War II stint with the Navy, Andrew was oble to carry on along similar lines, developing .and testing the pontoons used to mako. barges, bridges, dry docks, causeways. He also saw service in the Pacific with the fest-movjng Seobees. With Burns & Roe since 1941, he has worked on planning of a wide variety of utility and industrial plants, la now .engaged on three large pro/ects. HIOH-TEMPEAATURI hot-water heating may cost more at first but quickly proves its economy, argues Alexander Kuli in the article beginning on p 96. This is in line with his personal philoso phy that the seemingly least expensive solution of a problem is often the most expensive In the long run. Born in Hungary, Alex Is a graduato of the University of Pica (1937) and also of the Technological Academy ol Munich. With a background in heating and air conditioning, ho came to the U.S. in 19S1 under the Displaced Per sons Act Shortly after starting work with American District Steam Co In No. Tonawands, N. Y., the rapid expansion of the Adsco plant gave him opportuni ties to.prove there the economic worth of high-temperature hot-water heating for large Industrial plants. JANUARY 1953 ABS 0UT.
