Applications for renewal of studentdeferments are now available at the

Selective Service Advisory Office,Room 7-102. The Advisory Committeehas issued the statement quoted be-low regarding the proper procedurefor securing or renewing student de-ferments.

Students who wish to be deferredin Class 2-S by the Selective ServiceSystem over the summer and the next

academic year must fill out a set ofSSS Forms 109 and a questionnaire atHeadquarters of the M. I. T. Advisory

Committee on Military and SelectiveService, Room 7-102. This office hasa supply' of these forms and many§tudents have already filled out thefirst six questions in preparation forfiliffig with the Local Boards in June.

'Students are urged to fill out theseforms, as soon as possible rather thanput it off and cause a last minute rushwhich could result in delays.

"In view of the fact that the formsdo not constitute a request for de-ferment in Class 2-S (student), it willbe necessary for this office to prepareand send to each local board a letterrequesting deferment for the nextacademic year. In this connection, aquestionnaire has been preparedwhich when filled out will give thenecessary information upon which towrite such a letter. Letters and formscannot be sent automatically to localboards. This must be done at the in-dividual request of each student.

Den Hartog GivesPractical Lecture

With Simple ModelsMechanical Vibrations and Their

Control will be the subject of a publicpopular science lecture to be givenby one of the outstanding authori-ties in this field at the Institute at4:00 p. m. this Sunday.

Dr. Jacob P. Den Hartog, Professorof Mechanical Engineering, will dis-cuss the occurrence and prevention ofvibrations in a variety of structuresand machines ranging from aircraftwings to washing machines. -The lec-ture will be illustrated by a numberof simple demonstration models, manyof which can be easily made at homefrom a few pieces of wood and steel

wi re.In previewing the lecture, Dr. Den

Hartog said: "An understanding ofvibrations is of great practical impor-tance. Today machines seldom failbecause of high loads but almost in-variably break because of variationsin stresses caused by vibration. The

break occurs in the same m annerthat a strip of tin or wire is broken

by repeated bending. Such fatiguebreaks take place not only in highspeed machinery but also in suchseemingly 'static' structures as largesuspension bridges and overheadtransmission lines."

Dr. Den Hartog has made impor-tant original contributions to the solu-tion of complicated mechanical vibra-tions and is outstanding in the fieldof analysis. He has received both thePi Tau Sigma Richards Memorial

Award for "outstanding work in ap-

plied mechanics," and the Worces-

ter Reed Warner Medal for "out-standing contributions to engineer-ing literature" from the American So-ciety of 1Mechanical Engineers. He isalso the author of numerous articlesthat have appeared in the technical

press and of the books "MechanicalVibrations" (1934), "Mechanics"(1948), and "Strength of Materials"

(1949).(Continued on page 4)

"Reports from Washington indicatethat student deferment is to be con-tinued. However, the passing mark onthe Selective Service College Quali-fication Test will be raised from t70 to,75. As soon as the new regulationsare received from Washington, we w-illoffer them to THE TECH for. publi-cation. Last year General Hersheygave the colleges 30 days after theend of the academic year in which tofile all of the Forms 109 with the localboards, and this procedure will be con-tinued. These forms are sent annual-ly to the local boards and show thestudents' scolastic standing for theprevious academic year and are notbased on cumulative rating as nmanystudent mistakenly believe.

"Almost all Class 2-S defermentshave an expiration date in June orJuly. However, students should not besurprised if they do not receive anextension of classification until lateron in the summer when the Boardshave had a chance to make their de-terminations. In other words, theBoards are required to reconsider theclassification of each student afterreceipt of Form 109 and a letter re-questing continuation of Class 2-S de-ferment. We suggest that studentsand their parents refrain from con-tacting the local boards. It worlcs outmuch better to have the entire defer-ment situation handled formally andimpersonally.

(Conztinued on page 3)

Tentative plans for the construc-tion of an ice skating rink have beenmade public by the Institute. THETECH was informed by Mr. RobertKimball, director of the Division ofBusiness Administration, that nofunds have been allocated for the pro-ject at present, since plans are still inthe formative stage. In any event,completion of the new auditorium willprecede construction of the rink, sincethe air conditioning system of theformer will be used to manufacureice for the rink in winter. It has beenshown that a small increase in thecapacity of the projected refrigera-tion system for the auditorium willmake it suffice for the rink also.

A chapel for the use of the Tech-nology family will be constructed inconjunction with the new auditorium.Plans, unapproved as yet, call for aseparate building to be located some-where between the auditorium andMassachusetts Avenue. The chapelmay be circular in shape, with a nar-rowv moat around it. By day, sunlight,and by night, artificial light, will bereflected from the surface of the moatto illuminate the chapel. All faithswill be allowed to use the edifice, anda permanent staff of religious ad-expected that the finished chapel willvisors may be attached to it. It isintroduce a new element of unusualbeauty to the campus.

The auditorium and chapel will bepaid for with money from a grant ofone and a half million dolars givento the Institute in July 1950 by theKresge Foundation. Long range plans

IT'S ABOUT TIME

For the past several years the detailed results of campus elec-tions to both Institute Committee and the dormitory governingbodies have been noticeably withheld for warious lengths of time-from the student body by a small, select group of people. Per-haps this state of affairs has been the practice of student govern-ment since its inception at the Institute and that what we haveseen in our short time here is the rule rather than the exception.This policy, however, has recently been questioned and with goodreason. For when election to office is conducted in a supposedlydemocratic manner detailed and complete information concerningthe final outcome of the balloting should certainly be made avail-able to any and all interested parties. One should expect no less.No further justification than this right of free inquiry is required

'for the demand to be given access to such information if it is with-held. It is surprising that the situation at the Institute has beentolerated so long.

The Secretariat, which is an organ of the Institute Commit-tee, is the one group exclusively empowered to control all mattersinvolved in the election of class officers. It has, in addition to main-taining provisions for balloting on thle day of election, the allimportant function of counting the votes. Now in a truly demo-cratic system this duty should be performed in the presence ofany person who cares to survey the tabulation process. For thesake of expediency, hoowever, we can well understand the desireon the part of the Secretariat to carry out this particular functionwith a minimum annoyance. However, once this task is completed,its results niust be made public.

The 1953-1954 Institute Committee recognized this and wasquick to rectify the failings of past student governments by pass-ing the motion to make available detailed class election results

'"immediately following the counting of votes". Past policy hasbeen to refrain from making any election announcements untilfinal approval of new officers was received at an Institute Commit-tee meeting, (and then only the names of the winners were madepublic). However, nowhere in the Undergraduate Constitution isthere any stipulation that this procedure must be followed. Theantedated policy has been perpetuated merely by a fear of break-ing "precedent". In fact the only reason the Chairman of the Sec-retariat could give for this strategy was that it did not let "thestudents know the number of votes separating the candidates".This is the very reason for discarding the policy. It is of greatimport, for example, to know that in at least two instances withinthe past year victory was decided by the slim margi. of only twovotes. A change in ONE VOTE would have been sufficient to alterthe outcome of the election.

It was argued also that the results, until approved, were un-official and subject to reconsideration and recount by any candi-date who doubted their accuracy. But how is a candidate to knowwhere he stands in the final tally if detailed results are not madeavailable to him ?

The college student is far past the stage where he mustbe constantly sheltered. When a student becomes a candidate foroffice he immediately assumes the possibility and risk of losing theelection. The argument then that feelings may be involved, andmust therefore be considered, is an invalid one.

The announcement, by institute Comnmittee that it will hence-forth make public the complete election results is a welcome oneand is indication that the new Institute Committee is off to a goodstart.

'54through the mailTo the Editor of THE TECHI:One year ago the, Institute installedthe finest telephone system in anycollege dormitories, which enables acaller .to speak to any residen by call-ing the M.I.T. main switchboard andwhich also provides for calls by rest-,dents to Institute offices. ProfessorCarlton E. Tucker of the ElectricalEngineering Departmient designed thesystem and persuaded the Instituteto install it. About 32 brand new tele-phones were installed in East Carn-pus.

This fine system has been subject-ed to much abue. Phones have beenblovni up, a dial was removed in Wal-cott, and many handsets have beenstolen. Last week every phone inWood and two in Hayden were dis-abled, a total' of five handsets andtwo' complete telephones stolen. TheInstitute does not plan to :replacethese phones. Pay telephones in thearea adjacent to ~M.I.T. have teieteedsimilar treatment.

The only solution I can see is not apleasant one. If we can-not take careof good equipment, then the Insti-tute should replace the new phoneswith old dial type wall phones likethose in the halls at Burton Houseand the rooms at East,Campus (they1have no handset). This equipment isnot worth stealing and cheap to re-place if someone does steal it. rwould rather use a handset for -myoutside calls, but it is better to useold equipment than to have the in-stitute get fed up and give no serviceat all.I

I ame interested in hearing theviews of other people on this subject.

Labor relations is one of the mostcomplex problems we face in thesetimes. The Department of Economicsand Social Sciences is fortunate insecuring as a visiting lecturer on thistimely subject, the Honorable ArthurTyndall, one of the leading authori-ties in this field, who has served inthe important post of Senior Justiceof the Court of Arbitration of NewZealand.

His capabilities stem from thirteenyears of sewvice on this unique courtprobably the only one of its kindin the world) plus in-aluable ex-perience in working for six monthswith a team of international expertsto study labor and industrial relationsin Pakistan. He was also connectedwith the International Labor Organi-

House. The failure of the. DormitoryCommittee to take such action itselfhas resulted in widespread misunder-standing and violation of the presentvague rules in Baker House. Seilersaid that the Judicial Committee willstart work immediately on an inte-grated system of rules to govern thehours in all the dormitory lounges.Jerry Perloff' '55 chairman of theBaker House Committee, obseroedthat it was impossible to presecuteoffenders for the violation of rulesthat did not exist, and this hadprompted the action of the BakerHouse Committee.

Representatives of W. M. I. T. at-tended the meeting and renewed theirappeal for funds to construct a nexttransmitter in the Burton House. Thenew transmitter would adequatelycover the entire house, and will costapproximately $450. The matter wasreferred to committee for furtherstudy since a sound method must befound to finance the project, or theDormitory Committee will not sup-port it.

The findings of "Pro-ject Lincoln" indicated that the exist-ing system. and any conventionalfuture system cannot do the job.

California Institute of Technologyat Pasadena will be host to membersof the Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology Academic Council in aseries of discussions concerning themutual problems of the two schools.For three days starting Monday,March 23, representatives and facultyfrom the Institute and CaliforniaTech will study such topics as studentlife, government research projects,faculty tenure, and perhaps 'hehumanities programs. The Institutegroup will also meet with thetrustees of C. L T.

These meetings, held this year atPasadena, will take place at the In-stitute in 1954. They were planned byPresident James R. IKillian, Jr., andPresident L. A. D. Bridge of Caltech.

The California institution is devotedmainly to science, and offers few en-gineering courses at the undergradu-ate level. The student body consists of700 undergraduates and 500 graduateswith a faculty of 300.

Other Activities On TripBefore'the Monday meeting, Presi-

dent Killian and Vice President andProvost Julius A. Stratton will attendthe installation of Duncan Ballantineas mew president of Reed College inOregon. Professor Ballantine was amember of the English and HistoryDepartments here at the Instituteuntil the spring of 1952.

Dean John E. Burchard of theSchool of Humanities and SocialScience will represent the Institute atthe installation of new chancellors atthe University of California at Berke-

Dormitory night watchmen at theInstitute have been reorganized andare now known as the DormitoryP'atrol. These men now wear uniformjackets with identifying insignia. Theidea for the reorganization originatedin the office of former Associate Deanol' Students Frederick G. Fassett.

In an interview with THE TECH,Air. Henry K. Dow, Manager of theDolrmitories, said the reorganizationhad been in the making for some time.He said he believes the new systemwill eliminate any confusion causedby lack of proper identification andwill protect the students flrom strang-ers wandering around in the .guise ofnight watchmen.

tive products, or the presence ofunsatisfactory profit margins.

In a single study, the engineer may

draw data from laboratories, senmi-works and plant-scale experiments,prepare an estimate of profits and in-vestments and consult with numer-

ous specialists on various phases ofthe problem, both within the Com-pany and outside.

Having collected data from these

m3any sources and perhaps from anindependent study of his own, theplant development engineer mustthen assemble and evaluate the ma-terial and prepare a reconmmenda-tion that is based on sound engineer-ing judgment°

Whether a product or process im-proves from the standpoint of com-petition, profit and efficiency de-

pends, in great degree, on the qualityof its plant development work. Thedevelopment engineer's job is a re-sponsible one at Du Pont, and thework of a good man is soon noticed.

"The Selective Service System hasmade absolutely no stipulations re-garding requirements for summerschool or summer employment ofstudents, because they realize thatmany students must earn money dur-ing the summer in any way possible.It is to be assumed that manystudents will feel obligated to servetheir country in defense industry orin some other way. This will be a dis-tinct advantage to the student him-self, especially if he can find employ-ment in his own particular field.

New Atomic CannonLarger and Faster

The destructive power of America'snew atomic cannon is so great that ifit were mounted on an enemy sub-marine it could paralyze New- YorkCity in fifteen minutes.

Steelways, authoritative publica-tion of American Iron and Steel In-stitute, says the atomic shell that the280 mm. weapon can fire 20 miles with"pinpoint accuracy" is only about 11inches in diameter.

To absorb the tremendous kick, thegun has a double recoil system. Firstthe 40-foot barrel and then the en-tire gun recoils. The unit is carriedsuspended between two automotivetractor units, much like the high al-titude of a fire engine.

"The new cannon and its carrieradd up to one of the lalrgest piecesof automnotive equipment in theworld," the magazine states, with theentire assembly Reiging 85 tons. Yetthe gun itself can be put into actionfaster than any heavy field piecesnow in Korea.

It can barrel over highways atspeeds up to 35 miles per-hour andturn corners in a street only 29 feetwide. The gun fires at any anglefrom a flat trajectory to an elevationof 55 degrees, and it traverses itselfthrough 360 degrees.

Coulzncil Discusseslntramural Sports,

The Intramllral Council met lastTuesday in order to discuss, and pos-sibly revise various parts of the in-tramural sports program.

The first main subject to bebrought up waS the alarming lack ofgood officia in intramural games, es-pecially in football and basketball.A suggestion, that there might beonly about ten officials to cover thegames, in each sport, and that thesebe paid, was raised. Officials wouldbe chosen on their ability to refereeonly, not on their financial need ofthe pay involved. Even though opin-ions on this idea were divided, itwas generally agreed that somethinghad to be done concerning officials.Therefore, a sub-committee was or-ganized, which is to report at thenext meeting

Another issue, attached by the rep-|resentative from the Graduate House,involved the restriction of letter menfroin participating in intermurals. Itwas argued, that Just these men, notallowed to compete, would deprivemost from the sports program. On theother hand, it was suggested that theusage of letter men would createteams far too powerful. The GraduateHouse, for instance, with probablythe greatest depth in varsity men,would be practically invincible, andwould constantly win the trophies.The reply to this stated that it wouldbe better to have lettermen partici-pate in Graduate House teams, whichthere would not be Eontenders for amytrophies, than to suppress a class ofstudents from intramurals. This sys-tem works well in various other col-leges. 4 subcommittee is now study-ing the issue.

Showing considerable improvement over last year when theyfailed to win a game, the Engineer hockey team closed its seasonwith a record of three wins and eleven defeats. While this maynot sound very impressive, it is good considering the handicapstrader which the team played.

The Beavers started fast, with forward Richard T. DiBona'55 scoring a goal after fifteen seconds had elapsed in the firstgame. The Engineers went con to win over Rhode Island, 9--2, withCo-Captain Roger G. Turgeon '54 tallying three goals. The Beaversdid not look as impressive in their next few outings against someof Greater Boston's better teams, but they did manage to sand-wich a 7-A win over Suffolk in with losses to Tufts, Northeastem,and Harvard.

In .TJanuarv. the team traveller d to iLax VI a"UJZ VVy SkII U Ul' -wLIas VV Ilettermen, they will be bolstered bya strong freshman team. If earlymorning practice don't discouragethem, next year's sextel should proveeven better.

WRESTLINGTurling to the wrestling mat, the

Beavei! matnien had their most suc-cessful season since wrestling wasreinstated after the war. The arap-plers won three of their se-ven inter-collegiate matches, and placed astrong sixth in the New Englandchampionships. Heavyweight CharlesF. Seymour '53 captured the NewEngland championship and finishedthe season undefeated.

UJnder the able coaching of Sin-| lair Buckstaff, last year's erarsitycaptain, several of the matmenturned in excellent records. ChuckSeymour was the outstanding wrestl-er, winning every match and pinningall but two of his opponents. RichardA. Landy '53, at 177, was undefeated,but an injury kept him out of thelast few matches and the intereol-legiates. John T. Kennaday '55, whowrestled at both 130 and 137 duringthe season, lost but once during theregular season and placed third inthe New Englands.

Lewiston, Maine, where they trippedColby, 4-2, for their third win of theyear. A vacation trip to Vermont didnot end as happily, as Middleburytook a 9-3 win, and Norwich fol-lowed with a 14- 2 victory. The finalfew games were against stlongGreater Boston teams, and the Techteam was outclassed. The only sur-prise came when Suffolk tripped theBeavers, 5-4.

Because of the greater number ofhigh school and college teams playinghockey in the Greater Boston area,the Engineers were forced to prac-tice at the Lynn Sports Center inLynn, some frfteen miles away, atsix in the moring. Several homegames were also scheduled for theLynn rink. Despite the extremely un-favorable practice conditions, CoachBen Martin molded his team into areasonably efficient outfit that turnedin some good games.
