W illiam A . H anley William Andrew Hanley, mechanical engineer and business executive, of Indianapolis, Ind., President of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers for the year 1940-1941, was born in Greencastle, Ind., in 1886. He attended St. Joseph's College, Rensselaer, Ind., for two years and then matriculated at Purdue University, where he received the degree of Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering in 1911. Twenty-six years later, his alma mater bestowed upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Engineering. Prior to attending Purdue University, Mr. Hanley worked five years for the Republic Steel Corporation and the Broderick Boiler Company, both in Muncie, Ind. Immediately after graduation, he entered the employ of Eli Lilly and Company, of Indianapolis, manufacturers of medicinal products. Today he is a director of that company and head of the engineering division. This division designs and supervises all engineering projects, construction, power, maintenance, etc., for the corporation, its branches and subsidiaries, and, in addition, operates certain highly mechanized production departments. In 1938-1939, Mr. Hanley spent much time in Basingstoke, England, building a new manufacturing plant for the British subsidiary of the Lilly company. Mr. Hanley was elected an Associate-Member of the A.S.M.E. in 1913, promoted to full membership in 1920, and made a Fellow in 1936. In 1916, he was one of the organizers and the first secretary of the Central Indiana Section. In 1919, the local members elected him chairman of the Section. The following year saw the beginning of many years of service by him in the activities and affairs of the parent body with his acceptance of an appointment as one of the A.S.M.E. representatives on the American Engineering Council. During the period from 1922 to 1927, he served on the Committee on Local Sections and, from 1933 to 1938, on the Committee on Relations With Colleges. In 1927, he was elected to a three-year term as a Manager of the Society and, in 1930, to a two-year term as Vice-President. Other A.S.M.E. activities in which he has taken a part include the Special Committee on Junior Participation, Special Committee on Relationship of Society to Accrediting Program, and Committee on Medals. Over a long period of years Mr. Hanley has contributed to the technical press a number of articles on both engineering and economic subjects. He is a past-president of the Indiana Engineering Council, an honorary member of Tau Beta Pi, a member of the Newcomen Society of England, and a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is also a trustee of Purdue University, of Park School of Indianapolis, of the Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity (national), and of the Associated Catholic Charities of Indianapolis.
