Another ROBBINS " F I R S T " . . . a n d the most
revolut ionary NEW DEVELOPMENT in the h is tory of
V iny l Floor Cover ings! NEEDS N O W A X I N G . . . E V E R !
NfEDS N O ADHESIVE Rohbins exclusive rutting and squaring process insures such precise and uniform dimensional accuracy that relatively slight compression holds the tiles fi rmly in place without the use of adhesive! W i l l not curl or warp, so the floor cannot huckle even though no adhesive is used. Absolute dimensional stability is another exclusive with Robhins. A n d their special stress-relieving process is your guarantee against shrinkage.
CAN BE INSTALLED WHERE CONVENTIONAL TILE CANNOT I
For the first time in the history of floor coverings it is possible to lay tile on fjelow grade areas, where moisture is excessive, without fear of failure. A l kali and moisture oozing through concrete attack and eventually destroy the adhesive, causing seepage through the joints. T h e exclusive and revolutionary construction design of Robbins Lifetime V i n y l Al l -Purpose Terra-Ti le , however, completely overcomes this problem. No adhesive is used in the installation of this tile. T h e honeycombed construction of the tile back eliminates the possibility of any moisture being forced out through the joints.
IMPERVIOUS TO MOISTURE OR ALKALIES I
Unlike many flooring materials. Robbins Al l -Pur-pose Terra-Ti l e is completely unaffected by water or alkalies. It wil l not absorb moisture: will not swell or curl. It does not deteriorate when subjected to chemical attack and is. therefore, ideal for use where such conditions are prevalent.
EASILY MOVED TO NEW LOCATION!
Robbins Al l -Purpose Terra-Ti le gives luxurious lifetime service . . . wherever you go! It can he taken up and transported to another location at will . It represents a truly permanent investment-one tfiat is not lost if a change of locale becomes necessary. It can be moved from room to room easily and quickly . . . can be rearranged to achieve different pattern and design effects whenever desired.
UNAFFECTED BY SHIFTING OF SUB-FLOOR!
W i t h Robbins Al l -Purpose Terra -Ti l e , shifting of wood sub-floors due to expansion and contraction is no longer a problem. Since the tile is not affixed to the floor, any fluctuation of the sub-floor has no effect upon the tile floor covering. T h e expensive— and often unsatisfactory—procedure of applying composition board, plywood, or felt underlay is eliminated. In addition, the sub-floor needs no special preparation, such as removing paint or w a x . before the tile is put down.
7 0 TIMES MORE RESILIENT THAN CONVENTIONAL TILE!
Robbins Al l -Purpose Terra-Ti le provides unheard of comfort underfoot. Hard-surface flooring that produces muscular fatigue can now be made pi l low-soft. Despite its exceptional resiliency, however, Al l -Purpose Terra-Ti l e resists excessive indentation from furniture legs properly protected by supports. T h i s high resilience factor gives the floor superior wearing qualities over ordinary tile.
TWICf AS THICK AS CONVENTIONAL TILE!
Because of its honeycombed construction. R o b b i n s A I I - P urpose Terra -T i l e is twice as thick as conventional tile. A s a result, it wears longer, provides improved walking comfort, and greater sound a n d shock absorbency. T h i s added thickness also enhances the inherent "lie-flat" characteristics of the tile, giving extra protection against bending or buckling under pressure. Despite this increased depth, however, the terrazzo design is still tile-thick!
INSULATES AGAINST TEMPERATURE EXTREMES AND DAMPNESS!
Pockets formed by the unique honeycomb construction trap air which comprises an effective in sulating layer between floor and tile.
COSrS LfSS TO INSTALL THAN CONVENTIONAL TILE!
Eliminat ion of adhesives and felt makes R o b b i n s Al l -Purpose T e r r a - T i l e substantially less expensive and far simpler to install than ordinary tile. From a long range standpoint, its economies are even greater because of superior wearing qual i t ies , transportability, and increased utililv

I n passing. I ' d l i k e t o t p io t e f r o m Emerson, w h o i n the m i d d l e of i l u N i n e t e e n t h C e n t u r y understood the essence of beauty i n a r ch i t e c t i ne so m u c h better t h a n many of us.
H e said: "Beauty rests on necessities. T h e l ine of beauty is the
result of perfect economy. T h e cell o f the beehive is b u i l t at tha t angle w h i c h gives the most s t rength w i t h the least wax. T h e bone or the q u i l l of the b i r d gives (he mosi ; i lar s t rength w i t h the least weight .
r i i e r e is not a pa r t i c l e to spare i n n a t u r a l structures, r h e r e is a c o m p e l l i n g reason i n the uses of the p l a n t f o r
every novel ty of co lor o r f o r m ; a n d o u r ar t saves mater ia l by more s k i l l f u l a r rangement ; and reaches beauty by t a k i n g every super l luous ounce tha t can be spared f r o m a w a l l and kee j ) ing its s t rength i n the poetry o f co lumns . "
H e cont inues : " I f a m a n can b u i l d a p l a i n cottage w i t h such sym
metry as to make a l l the fine |)alaces look cheap and vulgar ; can take such advantages o f na ture that a l l her powers serve h i m , m a k i n g use o f geometry instead of expense, t a p j i i n g a m o u n t a m f o r his water j e t , causing the sun a n d m o o n to seem o n l y the decorat ions o f his estate, this is s t i l l the l eg i t ima te d o n r i n i o n o f beauty."
O n l y a l o o k at today's b u i l d i n g s i n D e t r o i t a n d we realize how n m c h i m p r o v e d oin- e n v i r o m n e n t w o i d d have been i f we h a d c a r e f u l l y f o l l o w e d Emerson's beliefs i n the design o f o u r b u i l d i n g s .
One o ther p o i n t I w o u l d l i k e t o make o n aesthetics is that i t is p robable here tha t those o f us w h o profess to practice m o d e r n a rch i t ec tu re err most seriously.
VV^ith overemphasis o n aesthetics we tend to do exactly tha t w h i c h wc have been c r i t i c i z i n g o u r predecessors f o r d o i n g ; tha t is to s tar t w i t h a p a r t i c u l a r l y desired f o r m i j n d stuff the func t i ons i n t o it n ; n u i a l l \ or n n n a i n i ; j I I \ .

Surf green Strm toglas of 2 i /^" corrugation are set in a box f raming of 5/4" x ()", and held by molciing strips The box effect is accentuated by alternating panels set

Here is genuine quality that has stood the test of time. Since 1937, more than 500 architects hove specified thousands of these units in schools from coast to coast. With full knowledge of the rugged use they receive Schieber puts into their construction the best in workmanship and materials. Sound policy? Schieber IN-WALL users have no service problem.
Unless you foresee the need of detaching tables and benches from the wall, specify IN-WALL and get the extra rigidity and quality it offers as compared with detachable units.

This is a low cost, plywood top, version of IN-WALL, yet many of the important quality features of IN-WALL ore incorporated in its design. With 15 years experience building folding tables and benches, Schieber knows exactly where strength is needed. No castings ore used in Port-A-Fold and reinforcements are provided where necessary to absorb the abuse of daily operation.
If conditions require various seating arrangements or your budget is restricted, specify this unit.

In i ( \ i ( \ \ i n g the sitnaiion that hionglu abont the need for snc h a lesolntion, it develojjed that tlie (lolnm-hns ( o n t i i K t o i s and siib-c o n t i at toi s ha\t l)cen and are liberal (ont i il)in()rs and haid workers in campaigns to laise fnnds loi ( i \ ie, welfare and eliarity organi/ation^ in Colnmbns. sharing the load in snch jjiojcc ts with in-dnstrial.

It was further pointed cjnt that when work is awarded to ont of eity contractors, often withont competition, the local comiactors, sidi-contractors and material dealers ate fai too ol tci i , almost entirely exchided from even an opportnnity to bid or cpiote on snch work.
The faihnc- to recogni/e and nse the pjofessional talents of the local architects who are dnly registered nnder the state laws, not only deprives these "home town" woikeis of the opportniiities to cain additional income, bnt makes it even more diiricidt h)r the local contractors, snb-contractors and material dealers to show their waics and sell their services.

I t was the consensus of the Board of Diiectors of The (lolnmbns C:hand)er of Connneice that every effort shonld be made to employ Clolinnbns architec ts so that (:ohmd)ns contiactors be given an ecpial opportimity with ont-ol-towii concerns to submit coin|)etitive l)ids whenever a Ciohimbns business, professional or ci\ic project recpiiiing architectural and contracting scivice is |)ic)posccl.

N E W P A N - F O R M I N G MACHINE Follanshce Steel C^orpoiation has
iiniioimcetl the fiist j j iodiietion of a remarkable new paii l o in i i n^ machine to be used with the c()m])any'.s popu-l;ir sciimlcss lo l l terne roofing.
I he machine, Avhich is |)ortablc antl hantl-o|)er;ite(l, w i l l turn up the (•(l<;( s ol ii ")(Moot roll ol terne in one minine Hat. Estimated time for the same ojjcration by touxt ntional meth-Mils is ih i r ty minutes.
42 [August, 1953]
Company officials stress that the machine is not only ;i tinusaver, but a mansa\er ;is well, since it takes the batk-break out of one of the most tedious of the roofer's chores.
A l l the operator needs to do is to insert the continuous rol l of metal at one end of the machine and thread i t through a set of rollers. After that, the speed with Avhich the pans are formed becomes simply a matter of how last (he operator wants to pull them through.
Follansbee Steel Corporation wi l l sell the pan-former to rotjf ing contractors on a no-j j iofi t basis.
The madiine was first demonstrated at the recent l iu i lders Show of Metropoli tan Detroit. It was also used in the construction of a roof for the Guilder's Home Show Ideal Home, bu i l t by Heniy F. Fett, on F.leven Mi le Road outside Detroit.

The ct)ronaii()n of Queen Elizabeth in London next Jnne brought the Crystal Mace, famous symbol of the rights granted to (he t i ty by the ( K j w n . into active teremonial use twice \vithin the space of a year.
Usually, says the National Geographic Society, the most prominent appearance of London's ancient mace is its annual transfer f rom the outgoing Lord Mayor to his successor. Lhis ceremony took place this year early in November.
Use of a mace as a s\nil)ol of authority is an exceedingly ancient practice, possiblv going back to Roman days when officials bore fasces—an ax bound in a bimdle of rods, denoting power to flog wi th the rods or put to death wi th an ax.

According to the Robbins C^ompaiiy. this new vinyl coiuluctive floor tile offers the first outstanding improvement in the conductive flooring field in 25 years. Robbins L I F E T I M E Viny l A l l Purjiose "S l ATIC-PROOl '" ' tile, lor hospital operaiino looms. delivery rooms, anesthesia rooms and for all corridors serving anestheti/ing locations, offers the fr)llowing major improvements:

4. Made of L I F E ! I M E Viny l , requir ing a m i n i m u m of maintenance. Needs no waxing—ever!
5. Quickly, easily installed at very low installation cost.
A l l previous resilient conductive floorings come i n black or very dark colors because of their high acetylene carbon black content, were non-decorative and had very poor light reflective cpialities. Robbins new patented process does not use carbon black—the colors are l igh t and decorative and have maximum reflective qualities.
Heretofore, all resilient conductive f loor ing materials needed waxing for proper maintenance. Th i s continued waxing undoui)te(ily bui l t up a hlin of insulation on top of the tile, causing the t i le to lose some of its conductivity over the years.

TEN WAYS TO KILL AN ORGANIZATION
(Anonymous, hut read over C B S by Galen Drake) :
1. Don't go to the meetings. 2. If you do, go late. .H. If the weatlier doesn't suit you,
don't think of going. 1. If you do attend a meeting, find
lault w ith the work of the oflu eis and uiemhers.
5. Never accept office, as it is lai easier to critiei/e than to do things.
(). Get sore if you are not ajjpoint-ed on a committee, but if you are, do not attend (ouunittee meetings.
7. II asked hy the jjiesident to give your opinion on some matter, tell him you ha\e nothing to say.
8. After the meeting tell everyone how ihiuus shoidd ha \e been done.
9. D o nothing more than absolutely necessary, biU when other members use their ability to help matters along, howl oin that the oiganization is n u i by a clique.
10. Ho ld back yoiu- dues or don't pay at all .

I n the afternoon there was a spirited baseball game (soft bal l ) between Joe Ceruti 's val iant team and that
of George Dal ton . As was announced in the bulletin, all decisions made by the umpire were final and Oini ie M a n n i k e did a fearless job of imipir ing. H o w these younger fellows take it is beyond us but lo and b e h o l d -there was Phelps C i n i n i n g h a m playing.
T h e r e was horse shoe pitching with George V^ono-vc ih a n d Jim Bevyl still holding their own. It has been said (from what authority we do not know) that these two ho ld many honors in this game of horse shoe pitching, a n d we also noticed that Monty Chopper was not do ing badly at it either.

Fxerhardi , F r a n k l i n Scott —and |)crh.ips others we missed. We thought, as we saw these men — unknowing to them — how many of oiu" yoimger architects are studying the work they have done.

Is Architecture a Business or a Profession? (Conlintu'd from page 17)
A t the moment Ste\enage remains the beaiitilul unspoiled toinury town that our ancestors knew.
The people of Stevenage can ha\e both—the preservation of nuich of the beauty of the area and the homes for the Londoners.
T he ihouL^lulul j)lans which (an a((()iM|)lish this is ;i challenge for architects and in the resolution of such challenges lies the greatest satisfaction that might be found in oiu work.
I hough the problems we meet daily uiay be uioic niuiuianc and iiiiiior in (omparisoii , 1 think you will all agree that similai (hallenges are here.
H a d we been fully conscious at all times of our respon sibilities to people in the places where they live and the places where they work, Detroit woukl nf)t l)e littered with housing, industrial buildings and olhce structures and streets wl i id i are terribly impleasant |)Iaces in which to be.
l lic I ' l h a n k((lc\(' l() |) incnl \\v\\ h a s X ' tc ixcd n u u h publicity for the past year in oin- press. It was a serious threat at one time that the builders woidd take it over and develop it with If) ft. lots . . . a shun of to-inoiiow if not t o d a v . I his is still a possibility and il it is allowed to happen it woidd be a tragic scuttling of opportunity for a better Detroit. Yet there has been very little voice Ironi us, the aidiitccts, on t l i i s .
Recently at a (oidcrence in . \ n n Aibor I suggested that main indiisti ial binldings (ou ld be divided into a series of smaller buildings for the various operations with grass and trees between. I he advantages, of course,
^vould be the greater feeling of dignity and security for the worker, and the more pleasant surroundings brought about by closer contact with the outdoors.
1 I K re was opposition lo this on the grounds that it was unsound t l i inking economically.
Perhaj)s that is so in the light of today's economic thinking, but I venture it wi l l not be long before our woikc-is will ( I c M i i a i i d better coiulii ions in w h i c h lo work and j u s l i l i a b l N s o .
1 am afraid that if we had to work just one week in some of the structures we set up for our fellow man we would i . i i h c ' i c l i a s i i ( ; i l i \ c h a n g e our phi losopln ol a r c h i tecture.
Eero Saarinen's G . M . T e c h n i c a l Clenter must be a A v o n d e r f u l j)lace in which to work. T h e same siudight which fills those buildings aiul the same grass and trees can make life more pleasant for the more average workers in the more average buildings.
lit inging more and larger green ai eas into our central disti ic ts coidd be another facet in the recognition of our soc iai I esponsibil iiies.
The civic design connnittee of this group recentlv suggested that the bus shelters in Clapitol Park be moved K , ilic c c n u i ol t h e a i c a and that ilic park be eidaigccl with more trees ami more landscaping. W i t h the bus shelters in the centei, people on the perimeter sidewalks coidd better enjoy the park. I see by the newsj^apers that the suggc'siicju is being violently discussed and 1 hope wc aichitects wi l l be able to do moie than just sit at tlie ringside. W h a t is just another dirty area of Detroit c a n be rehabilitated into one of its bright spots.
When we first |)io|)osed the garden setback for the Federal Reserxc Bank there was strong opposit ion, sur-
No matter what your investment program is, it's wise to keep a cash reserve for unexpected emergencies or opportunities. And the ideal place for this cash reserve is in a savings account at Society for Savings—where it's always safe, always ready and always earning dividends.

jjrisiiigly enough from lellow architects and also Iroin some nieiiil)ers of the stall in Washington.
As you can see we, won out and this spring tliat block of l o r t Street wi l l l)e filled with the charm of sj)iino flowers. T h e bri l l iant colors of 4,000 tulij^s and of the magnolias should do wonders to the drabness thai is characteristic of that part of downtown Detroit.
If every block of our central areas possessed many such gardens think of the pleasiues that would daily be ours.
F ina l ly , I would like to ask some cpiestions as regards more participation by architects in the development of (UN city.
I he chief purpose of the civic design committee, 1 l )a\e felt—and I think that the others wi l l bear me o u t -has been to criticize sonre |)lan which has already been init iated by some agency of the city. In other words, we are a minor ai t couunission without portfolio, or we are after the fact.
T h e role of the architect in our ^ocic•l\ We always iieard shoidd be a creative one.
(^ould we initiate a small citizen's committee for Detroit, perhaps com{)rised of city government representatives, l)usiness and industry representatives, labor, education a n d architect representatives whose work would be to propose projects for the rehabil itation of Detroit.
I was ih i i ik ing of L o u Kahn's tremendous talk of last month and his inspiring leadership for Philadelphia. L e o n a r d Parker, who was sitting next to me at that talk, said al terward. " F h e design of one l)uilding seems so insignificant when compared with a l l that."
.And would we bolster that consultant by appointing a committee to help and to advise him?
1 know that if we put our heads together there must be m a n y ways in which we can help Detroit become a truly fnie City .
A n d as for our daily work, whether we work on schools, on commercial Iniildings, on housing or indus-tiial buildings, I belie\e that we should be less practical and more dreamers.
I heard a talk recently in Detroit by Clark Dil lworth, A . D . A . District Attorney of IMiiladelphia. and proliably the next governor of Penns\ 1\ania. He said, "Do not be afraid to dream. W e are badly in need of more vision in our terribly practical world."
Does that not apply to arc iiitecture as well as it does to politics?

Today, however, it is rehabilitated. Extraordinary alterations and remodeling have been completed. T h e Rotunda has taken on a new face both inside and out. Important features of the architectural interior treatment are: the fiber glass and a luminum dome over the interior circular court which was previously open to the sky; a gracefully cmved ramp, reminiscent of the artist's conception of the cities of tomorrow, which provides access to the foyer above the north wing entrance, com-|)leie redecoration of the walls; remodeling of the auditorium and the addit ion of a writing room and a switch gear room on either side of the rear entrance.

Because the Portland Cement Association believes that the best interests of the indiv idual and the community are served when competent professional services are engaged to insure sound bui lding construction, it is a basic Association policy to urge the employment of qual i f ied engineers or architects on concrete construction whether the job is a skyscraper, a br idge, a pavement, a sewer, a house or a fa rm structure.
A principal function of the Association's staff of concrete technicians is to assist engineers and architects w i th concrete design or construction problems.

META-KOTE W o o d S h i n g l e C o a t i n g "
Every dealer likes to hear such a comment, and he often does when he sells Meta-Kote —for his customers report shingles keep their rich beauty for 7, 8 or even 10 years.
Meta-Kote has been a coating of outstanding quality for more than 30 years. It's mode with a base of non-corrosive metal particles, that literally bond a protective armor on wood shingles. Toxic preservatives in Meta-Kote prevent shingle decoy. One coot is usually sufficient. Available in 10 colors. Write for color card.

N E W ELECTRIC DRAFT CONTROL
A new and improved model of the Ciampbell Elecliie Draft Control has jnst been ;nni<)un(cd by liie Fuel Re-dnetion C^orporalion of (ihicago, I l linois. .Snital)le for both eoal and oil Ined heating plants, the Campbell I l ( ( t i i e Draft Coinrol h;is (oiisistcni-ly delivered fuel savings up to 'iO% on installations in factories, office bnildings, hospitals, hotels, and other (onnnert iiil s'\/v ;ij)pb( ations.
1 he essential jx j in t of the Camp bell nnils ' superiority and (()nser|iiciU efTieiency is that i t contains two damper openings. A smaller damper operates barometrically when the stoker or bin ner is f i r ing, much in the same manner as conventional draft control ecpnpment. But, when the bnrner or stoker shuts off, a larger draft gate takes over. This electrically-operated check damper moves to a full-open position, by-passing about 80% of the chimney pul l . Thus, at the |x)int of peak heat, the (hinniey is forced to make most of its p id l from the boiler room air rather than from the boiler itself. Thousands of BTU's whi(h would normally be wasted up the stack are retained in the cond)us-tion chand)er. This residts in longer
|)eriods for the stoker or burner and very appreciable fuel savings for the user.

COPPER TUBING was specified for heating panels that are installed in wa
radiant s.
located in Ft. Mil l , S. C. The angled window s desired by the owner require that the walls be supported by cantilever construction, thus creating the illusion of being suspended in mid-air.
These walls contain the radiant panels that provide winter comfort for office workers. From both a cost and design basis, copper tubing fits this type of heating system perfectly. It is easily installed because it comes in long lengths, recjuires fewer fittings and bends easily to follow wall curvatures. Connections are made quickly and securely even in the hard-to-get-at spots by using solder-t\ pe fittings.
Architects \N ill alw ays find that copper tube for radiant heating panels
offers the "final touch" to modern design . . . plus lower installation costs, longer service life and lower upkeep, l^ibl ical io i i - W h a t Most F.(.])le W a n t to K n o w About Hadiant Panel Hc.itinu;"" answers (juestions \ o u r clients l ia \ (' on panel heating.
