New York State Student Watchmakers Guild

From Horology magazine, October 1939

New York State Student Watchmakers Guild

This Guild, consisting of horological students at the Morrisville State School, now comprises nine seniors and eight freshmen. This year, the freshmen were selected on a merit basis. Out of some 56 applications ten were selected, on recommendations and personalities, to take the entrance examinations. These included general questions, observation and mechanical aptitude tests. Eight applicants were successful.  

Guild meetings are held every other Tuesday night. At the first meeting of the fall season, activities and plans for the ensuing year were outlined. Work is to be continued on the Graham dead beat clock which was started last year.  Several pinions and smaller parts are already completed and it is planned to have the clock running some time during the year.
