The first meeting embodying this principle of cooperation was held on Thursday evening. January 13, in the Student Building. It was originally sponsored by the A.I.E.E. and was at- tended by all five engineering so- cieties. In a friendly, impressive ceremony, Mr. R. M. Fuller, president of the Pennsylvania chapter of the National Society of Professional En- gineers, presented Dean Disque with a fraujed engraving of the “Canons of Ethics for Engineers.” These canons are an expression of the principles by which registered professional engi- neers live and work.

Letters to the EditorDear f 'd i to r :

-A few weeks ago I was a rguing with a frientl «if mine, who attends an a ll ­

male local college, over the advant­age of belonging to a Fraternity. W hen he asked me to give him reasons why I thought the Fra tern i t ies are OK. I told him that not being a F ra ­ternity man I could only pass what 1 heard Fraterni ty men say.

There were only two reasons I gave him. These reasons w ere: (1) To have a select group of fellows in an organized club, and (2) T o help out the members of the Fra te rn i ty in their sttnlies by lett ing them use the files of theme papers, term papers , and test and examination sheets.

My friend then rep lied that the first reason I gave was an anti-social idea and the second reason was u n ­ethical since it gave an unfa ir ad ­vantage to the fra ternity m em b er over his “ ba rb” frienrl.

I wish to ask some fra ternity man to give me some reasons why they jo ined a fratern ity. May I suggest that they e ither have it pub lished in our great school paper or put their reasons in the boys’ mailbox in the “O” hole.

T hank you,A. Barbar ian .

To The Editor Dear Sir:

It is the op inion of the average American citizen and of certain repre ­sentatives in the I ni led Nations (Gen­eral -Assembly that the lat ter o rgani ­zation needs to be s t reng thened into making, inte rpre ting , a n d enforcing world law to prevent war. This is the object for which the I ’nited Wt>rld Federal ists (Inc .) was formed in February, 1947.

Cord Meyer, Jr.. a young veteran, is president of the organization, which includes am ong its vice-presi- denls and m em bers of its .Advisory B oard : statesmen such as Supreme (^»urt Jus tice W ill iam O. Douglas and \ \ . L. Clayton, fo rm er L’n d e r Secre­tary of State; scientists such as Al­bert E ins te in ; businessmen such as W. T. Holliday, Pres iden t of Standard Oil of O h io ; labor leaders such as James B. (iarey, Secretary-Treasurer <)f the C..I.O.; farm leaders such as James (J. Patton, Pres iden t of the National Farm ers I n io n ; and leaders of public op in ion such as Raymond Swing and Edgar -Ansel Mowrer.

Haverf«»rd, Bryn .Mawr, Swarthmore, and the l \ of P. have active student chapters and th roughou t the state and nation, student chapters exist in 250 universities, colleges, and h igh schools. T he movemeti t is rem in iscen t of the FiMleralist m ovement am ong the T h i r ­teen ('.olonies which cu lm inated in the b ir th of our ( 'ons t i tu t ion in Inde ­pendence Hall in 1787.

On the small matricula tion card that you carry constantly in your pocket or your purse, sits obscurely a lesson of college life that can escape your n«»tice as easily as a single pebble on the seashore beach. The w»»r*ls are plain enoupli. “ Athletic and Student Activities Fee," However, the fee is not so p la in ; it’s a pretty fancy price. Twenty-five dollars a year makes up a goodly portion of the total cost of tuit ion here at Drexel. Why should this be so? W hy is tlie student charped all this money for something that has no relation to the re<|iiired courses? No credits are piven toward gradua­tion f(»r extra-curricular efTorls. There must be a darn pood reason.

Merely to phrase tiiese ({uestions ought to shed light on the answers, ri ie educators that form the curricula of this college firmly believe that aca­demic courses alone are not enough e<iuipnienl for college graduates. There must be available for students the means to expand their narrow worUI into the many subjects and t«»pics covered by the organizations on our campus. They must be given the opportunity to develop any leader- siiip tfiat they may have and to sit, face to face, with tiie problem s that may later ci>nfront them in various organizat ions from large corporations to small, one-man businesses.

Each activity has its financial p rob ­lems; eacli committee has organiza­tional difiiculties. The people who sit and solve these problems learn to judge the character of people tiiey come in contact witli, and discover their own limitations and best talents. No matter how m inor the activity, or how l imited its scope, any develop­ment is part of the general plan of college education. The huge cost spent on niaintaining this program proves that our educators believe this to be true.

Some, who lazily try to find excuses lor non-participation, claim that they can find no organizat ions closely re ­lated to their intentions in future life. Is the engineering student who pounds a typewriter eacli week for the T hi- AM.LE planning on a journalism career? l ie is really learning how to clearly and coherently express h im ­self. And what is more important to an engineer than that he express his ideas clearly for all to understand?

Is the liome economics girl who runs for a student government oflice p lan ­ning on a polit ical career? Yet, will sfie not be able to run her home or her other responsibili t ies m ore efli- ciently having had experience in hand ­ling general p rob lem s? Half the batt le is won with the p roper organi­zation of the problem.

D on’t let this opportunity slip through your fingers. You may spend many years picking up the experience you can gain easily here. It is only common sense to take advantage of the tilings available to you and that you pay so much to maintain. Get more out of college life than what conies from a book. Get a real educa­tion while the getting is easy.

Drexel is safe plaguing us.

flunkilis is again

A bit of silliness, and nonsense always there,

There's humor in most everything, in much we do and talk

A1 MacCart led the Chasemen in their third victory of the sea>on as he nette<l six tw«»-pointers an«l converted four penalty shots for 16 points. A ft»rmer teammate of MacCiarl’s at liartram. Stan I.a 'kus. chip|ied in with seven goals from the floor and one from the fifteen foot mark for 16 tallies. Jalio .lahlonski's fine work undt*r the hoards netted him 12 markers and Captain John Savchak checked in with K( p»»inls.

Captain Boh Zink was the top performer for the visitors willi H) i ioint' , tying MacCart for sr»>ring honors.The Dragon Hoopsters contrtdled lioth hackhoards most of liie evening. an»l. therefori;, u e re never in serious

trouble. Jahlonski started the evening's scoring hy dropping a one-liander from the side. A pivot and tap shot hy Mac(^art a«lvanced the score to before Sumner Hohee <hecked in with two foul t«»sses. Schwah. MacCart, Jahlon* ski, Savchak and Laskus continued to hit the nets and at tlie end of the fir>t quar te r the Dragons held a 28-9 margin.

Continuing their fast breaking, aggressive style of hall, the Techmen kept Franklin & Marshall at hay and moved to take an overwhelming lead at the half, 44-2.>.

“Horse” Chase”# men rolled up ten points before the third «|iiarter was four minutes old. Two <piick buckets by MacCart and some spectacular under-hand shooting by Stan Laskus started the Dragon drive in this pe ­riod. Jules Schwab added two drive in shots and a swishing set to the nuHuiting score as the th ird stanza ended with the Dragons on the long end of a 61-31 lead.

Playing against the Dragon reserve strength in the fourth period, F ra n k ­lin and Marshall's Captain, Hob Zink, who had scored but one goal from the floor up to this time, moved into the limelight as he tallied 12 points in the final (|uarter. Koy Wagner and Hob Hrewton paced the Tech five down the ln)me stretch. Brew ton’s drive-in shot ripped the nets as the buzzer sounded ending the conte?t. Hob was fouled on this play and as the players and spectators were leaving. Brew ton con­verted the Dragons ' Tfitli point from the fifteen-foot line. The final count of the evening’s festivities gave the Dragons a 75-50 victory.

Traveling to Beth lehem on W ed­nesday, January 12, the Dragons suf­fered their first se tback of the 1919 campaign by submitt ing lo u 5848 lac ­ing at the hands of Lehigh Univer­sity. The up-stute Engineers were led by Lou Lange, who specialized with a jump shot from the foul line, with nine field goals, with five fouls for 23 tallies. His teammate, Frank Ora t ­ion, dropped 16 points through the hoop lo help the Brown and While cause.

A1 MacCart kept ihe Dragons in ihe game with his seven goals from the floor and four free throws for 18 points. MacCart left the game wilh five minutes remaining due to the foul route and with him went ihe Dragons' hope for victory. The score was 4641 when MacCart was waved out of the contest. A1 nol only led the leam in scoring but was also one of the top ball hawks on rebounds off the backboard.

The firsl period of this contest was hotly contested as Jules Schwab und A1 MacCart peppered the backboards with their set shots and finally a set by Jules and a one-hander by Mac- Carl knotted the count at 11. Gral- ton’s free toss pul the Brown and White ahead momentarily, but Schwab checked in with Iwo set shots to give the Dragons the lead at the end of the

first period, 15-11.(h a t to n and Lange found the range

early in the second period and gave Lehigh a 25-16 advantage before Mac- Clart and Savchak cctnverled foul goals to make it 25-18. The Dragons’ shots were falling short of their m ark in this period and conseciuently they made one goal on 18 shots. This was the ball game and at half time the score reail 26-20. Although the D ra ­gons kept narrowing down the up- stalers’ margin, they never did catch them.

Through the endeavor of Laskus, Jablonski, MacCiarl and Savchak, the Dragons crept within two points of Lehigh late in the th ird period. Lou Lange was again “Johnny on the spot" for the up-.state Engineers and his great play in the bucket brought the score to 10-31 at the end of three quar ­ters.

Eight points in the final per iod hy A1 MacCart before he fouled out, ad ­vanced the Dragons to within four points of the Bethlehem-men. John Savchak matle the score 16-H with five minutes remaining as he dribbled the length of the ctturt to sink an

An invitation to all potential foot­ball players lo attend a meeting this \\ edne«day, January 26. at 3:30 in the sciiool gymnasium has been ex­tended by Douglas.

The meeting will deal with Drexel 's fir-t spring training in many years. A ' p lan ' slanfl at present, practice will «tart Saturday, March 26, and end April 16 at 2:30 with an inter-s»piad game. Thursday and Fri<lay, March 21 and 25 will be used to issue e<|uip- ment. Practice will be held in the evening from 6:30 t(» 8:00 P.

Two week? ago at the National Soc­cer Coaches’ Associations Meeting in New York City, an All-Star Team was chosen which demonstrated that the successsful season enjoyed by the Dragon hooters was no accident or coincidence.

Receiving tiie most votes for best man at Outside Inner was Shahap Daga. Daga’s br ill iant and spiri ted play won him Drexel 's only post on the first team.

At Left Forward, the Blue and Gold placed A1 Wacker on the first h onor ­able mentitui squad, ( ieorge Haver- sick's performance at Inside Left won for him second honorable mention at his position. C.o-Captain Bob Linde, tiie Dragons’ high scorer, was placed on the third honorable mention team as (Center Forward.

T(t these four top-flight athletes, and to the rest of the team, who in our est imation also deserved recogni­tion, the T r i \N(.i.k Staff, for the stu­dent body as a whole, extends hear t i ­est congratulat ions.

under way, the Dragon J.Y.’s j o u r ­neyed t(» Beth lehem, 1‘a. to hand the Lehigh Frosli a 62-50 lacing.

Tiiur>day eve, a week ago, the sec ond pair of 1. F. basketball games were played; featur ing Sigma Alpha Mu, defending Champs, nosing out Alpha I’i Lambda and Tau Kappa Ep- >ilon beating l*i Kaitpa Phi.

In the opener the Sammies jum ped olV t»» an early lead on Walt Ellman’s hook shots — a lead that they were able to hold intact |»ractically the en ­tire contest. Walt Dubrow was high man for the victors with 12 tallies, tailed by Ellnian with 11 and Perloff having 7. Also playing a good game were Luchs, (Jr indlinger, Isaacman, (foldfarb, and Kligerman.

The l(»sing Apple Pies were paced by Hawn who had the game high of 13 points folbtwed by Blaine with 8. The Apple Pie court play was handled by Fink, Douglas, Santoleri, Hartz and Emerson.

Final score in this game that was fought all the way was 31 to 29 in favor of the Sammies.

The night-cap of Thursday’s play was the hectic Pi Kap-Teke tilt, in which the Tekes dum ped the Pi Kaps to the tune of 31-23.

Big Al Mellinger paced the Teke attack with 15 points. The Teke scor­ing was aided by McKinley and Win- kle>pect with 9 and 7 each. Other Teke Iwtopsters included Engleman, Synder, \ \ bite, Yaskey, Smith, Mac­Donald, Hawley, Zakarian and Pa r t ­ridge.

T he Pi Kap game was headed by Pi | ter who turned in 9 points. The Pi Kap s(]uad who were behind all the way showed light and spirit down t»> the final horn included: Kramer, Donovan, Hadzwilka, Stewart, Kolle, Stolfer, Advina, Johnson, and Troillo. Final again — 31-23 Tekes.

Sensational ball playing won the key-note on Tuesday eve, January 18, as the Theta Chi’s t rounced the Lambda Chi’s, 55 to 30, and the Sam­mies took a super thril ler from the big Teke team, 41 to 39.

The opener saw the Theta Chi’s go into the lead early and hold it long — piling up the score as the Lambda Chi’s tried to get back into the game. The Theta Chi team, by playing fast ball, was able to control both back­boards . . . and thus the whole ball ganie.

George Stolenski was the big gun for the Theta Chi’s, with 17 tallies. Schaefer kept the losers in the game with 13 points.

C.oming from a one-nothing deficit, the Sammies went out in front to hold an average five-point lead over the / . f . L EAGLE on Pa^e 5

by Jo e KeyesMarking the open ing of league com­

peti t ion in the M iddle Atlantic Con­ference, the Dragons walked away with an easy 55-39 victory over the Hornets of H averfo rd last Wednesday n ight on the hom e court .

From the open ing tap to the closing horn, the Chase-charges controlled most of the play. Ju les Schwab shared sc(»rina honors with “J a b o ” Jablonski for the Tech five, with 12 points apiece, while Sol Toll in did his share for tlie Horne ts by also contributing a total of 12. Sam Colnian proved t(» be the oppo n en ts ’ o ther big gun bv adding 11 pitints to the ir score.

By the end of the first q uar te r the Blue-clads. wearing th e i r new uniform- for tlie first t ime on the court, had set themselves in the lead with 9 points. For the first few seconds the score see-sawed back and for th, but with .Savchak’s bri l l ian t fake and pivot shot from the left of the basket, the Dragons went out in front for good.

Over two m inu tes of the second quar te r e lapsed before a basket was made. Bill Doclierty's charge, SttI Toll in , b roke the ice with a set shot. However, once broken , the U. L T. five went on to increase the ir lead to 19. At the end of the first half the score read 36-17.

D uring the second half of the game, the Hornets began to b reak much faster un d e r the basket In the third quar te r were seen some of the best shots of the evening. They were made by Roy W agner, and Jab o Jablonski. After this there was a p e r io d of no scoring, ended when Ju les Schwab, the set shot artist, d isp layed his prowess in s inking one. F ro m then on Al McCart and Jo h n Savchak took over and the rest of the team p itched in and added ten m ore poin ts to the lead.

Kollarmen Drop Game to U. of P.

Fresh from a surprise victory over Lehiph. the Drapon J.V. had a difli- cull time in their encounter wilh the Penn Frosli. Droppinp a 70-18 deci ­sion doesn't necessarily indicate that the defeat was a ro m p —for the Kol- larites exhib ited a free «lisplay of “ fipht and spirit.” The Q uaker l ine­up was sprinkled with many former outstanding prep stars from Phi lade l ­phia and neighboring schools in New Jersey. Shafler maintained his repu ­tation as high scorer and “ Kitty” Jones along wilh Jim Foley aided considerably in the point column. The ball handling and “ keeper of the boards” was capably handled by Im- perato and MacNamee. The Red and Hlue reserve was inserted at vital points in the contest and that p ro ­vided the necessary stamina to wear down the Drap«»n ofTense. These lads had the heipht and also experience toI.lot out the brief rallies of Drexel. An(»ther important factor was the l(»cal inability to rip the nets from the15 fool mark, but of 12 pifts from the referees, the Hlue and ( iold courtmen could only find the mark 23 times. (Greater accuracy at the foul line mipht have helped the Drexel cause considerably.

puns as they hit the nets f«>r a total of 27 points. Jim Foley played a “cool” pame as he bagged 10 big points, while MacNamee produced a sterling game underneath the btuirds. There was no doubt as to the final outcome of the conte?t, for the team went through their paces at a fast clip and they were a real t r ibute to tlie efTorls of Coach “ Dan.” Though Lehiph had first impressed the au ­dience wilh its fancy maneuvers and heipht, the Lehiph attack could not develop. They were defeated by the all-around exhibition of the J.V. first strinp and their capable and timely substitutions. Clarke. Locke, llanser, Hety and W ippand all fipured in the final victory of a hard fiphting team.

Hi. (rang:

Sorry to hear that the basketball

team lost to Swarthnu»re. The excel­

lent puarding (*f Hetsy Van Inwepen. Hetty Proctor, and Pat Simpers, who started for varsity, kept Swarthmore down lo 2*> points desjtite the repeated efTorls of one “Tall Tessie” <»f the opp<»sition. Two of last year’s |>lay- ers, Nancy Thomas and Midge Schu- man. aided by a promis ing freshman. W innie .Smith, managed lo break throuph the tight Swarthmore defense lo score a total of 1 V points, most of which were scored by Winnie. All told, the game was a defensive one. due probably lo the inability of the ofTense to make fast breaks, but the gals really have that solve<l now. The J-V's losl their game. 17-18. The Tues­day night scrimniape with Penn gave the team jusl the pu>li it nee»led for

the Heaver pame Wednesday, which I hope all of \«»u avid sports fans were able to look in on. Now that you've got the kinks out of those inus»'les. pals, let's go for a swi>hy scas«»n.

Nancy Grosvenor, Shirley Heese, Hosalie .''teele. Hobbie l lulier . and ( 'bar Dewees are healing those birds across the net each week in p repara ­tion for their first badminton pame witli Swarthmore on rhurs«lay, Feb. 3. on ihe opponents ' court. Lots of luck anil keep those birds flying.

Thanks to the P. (>. Department, tiie rifle team is in full swing ibis term. La>t year the gals were second in the Nationals. Kt't 'p up the rec­ord and shool as wt'll this year. Li/ hopes you'll come oiit on top this lime.

Drape shapes, baggy leotards, ach­ing muscles, all add up lo m odern dance. It's tough, gals. but. oh! what it doe> for the figures!!! In case any of you engineers get lost on the fourth floor and hear tiie healing of drums, don't gel scared. The victims an* the I’ro^li women in modern dance class.

Since there are no |;ames thi> week.

Ihe pirU' swimming team opened it-i •«ear>on with a splash, drowning the Che.»tiMit Hill Mermaids. 32 lo 25, at the U. «»f P.'s W eiphtman llall p(»ol. The whole team has re tu rned from bi't year's scpiad to receive more lutorin;' at the able hands of ('.oach . ''atllenieyer and are led by Barbara Mack for the second year.

Many fre>hmen are on the team and look proiiii«inp. As it now stands, the team conHi>t> of four seniors and three >iophoinore>, si* underclassmen will be needed for next year.

Dancers ‘Swing’ In ‘Silver Notes'

I 'he annual “ Tri Swing.” presented by member<i of tlie Tri Sigma Soror­ity. wa* held last Saturday niglit in the (ireat (icturt. The efforts «»f P u b ­licity (ihairtnan. Pal Kernan. and her committee were rewarch’d by a good turn-out of two hundred and fifty couples who <‘!ijoyetl an evening of fun and dancing to the music of Bob Fre«lericks and iii>i or»he>tra.

Decoration Cliairmen Pat Carrol and Shirley Bacon took the theme of “Silver Notes” and u>ed it w»*ll in t ran 'fo rm in g the ^taid (dd (iourt into a place »>f festivity. Silvered notes were masked against purple backdrops along the sides of the Ccuirt an«l the Purp le and White of Tri Sigma was repeated again and again in the stream­ers, the bandstand, ainl even in the refreshment plates and straws.

In a«ldition to the standard serv­ing of refreshments in the lounge, an a<bled feature at in termission was the distr ibution to male guests of butt«)n- hole carnations by C.arol Davis and Mary Jane (Jill, dressed after the fashion of Hollywood cigarette girls,

( ihaperones for the dan<-e were Mr. and Mrs. Tinney, Mr. and Mrs. Mc- (Juire, and the Misses Darrah. Vergey, and (Juinn. Kach was introduced to the (lancers during the evening an«l shown that their services were ap p re ­ciated.

Bejrinning with an active pre- (ihristma> s«icial sea.-on. the Drexel- t<Tian« continue*! their holiday activi­ties throughout the vacation. The fir>t social service project was a (i li ri 'tmas party c«implete with jovial Sanla'i. Bill Allman and Bill Ewen. for the boys and girN at the Betli Fden and S«Mithwark Settlement Hou^es. P^ntertainment was f)rovided by Peggy Hanson, Albert Borger, and Btd» Newh*»iiser as well as numerous committee members. A dorm social concluded a plea>ant evening. Still filled with the Christmas spirit the 'Terians went caroling a week later iin«l invaded Peg Hanson’s house after- wartls.

Because of the invigorating weather, the Drexel ter ians completed their 1*118 social season with a well-at­tended ice-skating party at the Lodge, arranged by Joe Litlerer.

Mr. Fuller, who had a great deal to do with the writ ing of the legislation, has been changed within the last year. He spoke at length about the Pe n n ­sylvania law and answered many ques­tions about it.

More joint meetings such as this one will be arranged by the new committee and other avenues of con­certed actitm will be investigated.

Sammy Mppk(Continued from Pape 1)

Joe ('>r)0 Club I (;rady and his 15-piece W PP:N Orchestra, will be held in the Court Saturday night. All who re ­m ember last year’s dance, or who have been fortunate enough t«) dance to his band will vouch that he has an excel­lent dance band.

Not t*» be forgotten are the Court and Hotise decorations which are an intrinsic part of SAMM^ W EEK. As yet these di>plays are somewhat of a deep-dark secret, but we hear rumors that they are spectacular to say the least.

Keeping in ihe custom of last year’s traditions, the annual SAMM^ W EEK conte>t will he held. Rules and entry blanks will be in the (]ourt and a hand ­some radio is the prize. Professor MacDonald, head of the English De­par tment; Herbert Wisch. President of the Men's Student ( 'ouncil. and Betty Anne Beagle, President of the wom en 's Stu<lent (Government Asso­ciation. will be the judges.

Everyone who is interested in a good time, in addit ion to aiding a mctst worthy cause, are advised to be present at as many of the events of SAMMY W P>EK as they can.
