K. Pancoast and E. P. Pendergrass Concerning these references the authors make the following statement The references we have been obliged to consult were vey numeTNUS The literature during the past few years has been replete with articles dealing with the various phases of dust inhalation We are obliged to restrict our list of references to those articles which present particular points of interest to the roentgenologist We have been obliged to omit many of the references included in our previous presentations References E.

Holmes I should like to call attention to the background of these dedication ceremonies which our friends have made possible for us to arrange for today The New York State College of Ceramics recently elerated to that status from the status of a school is the only institution in New York devoted to higher education in ceramic5 For the current year its enrollment is 247 this figure representing a % increase over that of the preceding year There is a staff of twelve instructors each a specialist in his line of work The College is or ganized on the basis of three departments that of General Technology and Engineering Class Technology and Ceramic Art The courses of study embrace all fields of the ceramic industries in their three essential aspects of tech- nology engineering and art The school now consists of three buildings including the new one to be dedicated today and affords 40,000 square feet of floor space devoted to lecture rooms and laboratories New date equipment worth 10,000 has been installed in this new building during the past year and 15,000 worth will be installed in the coming year This large expansion program of the past year has more | ACTIVITIES OF THE SOCIETY WIN WITH WISDOM CORPORATION MEMBERS | _- Paid Corporation Members of the American Ceramic Society ^'Engineering Co. 50 Church St. New York N.
