SNAME Awards Three

Graduate Scholarships

The award of three graduate scholarships for the 1970-71 aca- demic year has been announced by

The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers, now in its 77th year of continuous activity.

The recipients were selected from a total of 25 applicants by the So- ciety's scholarship committee, chaired by Frank L. Pavlik, and approved at a recent meeting of the executive committee of the Society.

The first recipient is James Mich- ael Patell who will study ocean en- gineering at the Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology and who is also designated as the Society's

Wilbur N. Landers' Scholar for 1970.

The recipient of the second award is Steven Gustave Buttner who plans advanced study in naval architecture at the Massachusetts

Institute of Technology. He is a graduate of Webb with a B.S.E. in naval architecture.

The recipient of the third award is Michael Owen Poynor who vwll study marine engineering at the

University of Michigan.

Named as alternates, in order, were : Joseph Krulikowski; Thomas

J. Sherman; Paul D. Chapman; and

James M. McCarthy.

The competition for the scholar- ships was nationwide and open to ient-air in 14" all who could qualify. The scholar- ships committee of the Society carefully studied the merits of each applicant. The winners were select- ed on the basis of character, lead- ership, and general promise for a future in the marine industry, as well as for scholastic ability and the desire to pursue advanced study.

The total monetary value of the three graduate scolarships is $13,- 450. Included in each award is the tuition fee plus a living expense stipend of $2,100.

In addition to the above scholar- ships for graduate study, the So- ciety is continuing its program of

Undergraduate Scholarship Awards started 12 years ago. This under- graduate plan is now maintained with scholarship grants at the

Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, the University of Michigan, and the University of California at

Berkeley. Under this program it is anticipated that a total of 10 under- graduates will each receive $1,000 during the 1970-71 academic year.

Interested high school and prep- aratory school students should inquire directly from these three colleges and not with the Society.

The basic objective of the under- graduate scholarship program is to encourage new men to enter the maritime industry, particularly in the technical fields of naval archi- tecture and marine engineering.

The Society is again making an annual grant to Webb Institute of

Naval Architecture, Glen Cove,

N.Y., to assist in training young men at this specialty school for a future in the maritime industry.

He taught both subjects at the Naval Acad- emy, and has co-authored the text book, "Marine Turbines". During his career, he was the recipient of several commendations.

The m/s Victoria maintains a year-round schedule of luxury cruises to the Caribbean, sailing from New York.

We do a rush job every time the Overseas Audrey turns around.

Vital problem for any tanker in port: how fast can the cargo be unloaded? To meet tight turnaround schedules while keeping costs in line, builders of the Overseas Audrey chose four Worthington 8LNS main cargo pumps.

The 37,000-dwt tanker Audrey and her sister ships, Overseas Alice and Overseas Vivian, were built at Bethlehem Steel Corporation's Sparrows

Point Shipyard and are operated by Maritime

Overseas Corporation. For each vessel,

Worthington supplied four main cargo pumps with their gears and turbines, as well as stripping-pump turbines and an instrum compressor.

Larger main cargo pumps (type LNS) to 16" sizes, with capacities to 26,000 U have become standards for the largest t; now being built.
