In the basketball game last Satur-(lay night, the Technology five camethrough for their third victory, de-cisively defeating Clark Universityby the score of 39-24. M. I.

The yearlings also wonthis week-end defeating Tabor o1-16,this being their first will of the year.

Both teams were a little wild intheir play to begin the game but aftera few missed baskets and some passesthat ended up in the wrong hands, alittle more serious basketball wasstirted. The Engineers slowly piledup a lead that was never relinquished.

Bowes, Center, Stars for. ClarkReal trouble was caused only by

Bowes, the lanky center on Clarkwhose uncanny eye for making basketsfroom the middle of the floor netted himfive field goals every one being ofthat nature. Harrison, Motter andFeustel. were the leaders for Tech-nology the first two each accountingfor twelve points, and the third, eight.Motter and Feustel made all tleirpoints on field goals, while Harrisonmade only half through this route.

While this was going on, the fresh-men were winning their first game ofthe year down at Tabor Academy :nMarion. The team had things th~eirown way, the half ending in 19-4score. O'Brien was the star performernfor the yearlings being responsiblefor nine points. He played his originalposition at right forward and dis-tinguished himself there. Oldham,Crosby, and Eamond all were close inthe scoring. two of them scoringseven points and the third eilght.

POOREST PROFESSORSGIVE LOWEST GRADESPresident Walter Dill Scott, of

Northwestern University, offers theopillion that the lowest grades il col-lege and university courses are givenby the poorest professors. He ex-plainied that the poorest professors,in both financial matters and in teach-ing ability, are those who receive theleast pay and who are not recognizedby the departmental heads for retappointments to office.

In his study of the matter, Presi-dent Scott has found that this groupof instructors gave seven times asmany lows marks as those the uni-versity autllolities r ecognize as thebest.

S~tatinlg his view on the du~ty of thlepl of essor., lie said, "Tlle funletioll ofthe professor, is to develop intellectualinterests rather than to provide dif-ficult hutrdles and to rewsarwd successrather than to punlish failure.''

"FOR DISTINGUISHED SERVICE"

TO INCREASE the admiration for Dr. Samuel W. Stratton'sinterest in the undergraduate body comes the information

of his intention to award prizes for the best papers given inthe various Professional Societies during the year.

The Professional Societies perform a valuable service forthe student body, which is two-fold in its purpose. Membersof these organizations may receive a more intimate knowledgewith the actual operations and functions of the particularbranches of engineering in which they are interested, and atthe same time, are brought together in informal discussionsof apt topics with the other members of their courses. Therecan be no doubt that this service is to the advantage of thosewho enroll in the membership of these societies. A knowledgeof the practical applications of the engin eering theory of-fered in the curriculum is of value to every graduating stu-dent, and the acquisition of this knowledge during the under-graduate years is of still more value.

At present there alre twelve PIrof essional Societies, eachaffiliated with a particular course. As ulnits, they offer totheir members soznething in addition to their regular instruc-tion, and in combined form, they lrepresent the more inter-ested members of the student body. There is every reasonfor their continual growth in size and purpose.

Dr. Stratton appreciates the problems that must be met bythe graduating student, and has seen the ultimate advantagesto be found in the Professional Societies. His prizes will in-spire the furthering of their purpose, and the undergraduatebody is at a loss to voice its gratitude in any manner appro-priate to the unselfishness of the award.

WVITH countenances flushed with pride and satisfaction, thecast and managers of the 1931 Tech Show have re-

turned from Mount Holyoke College where, from all indica-tions, their performance enjoyed no small amount of success.

It is altogether fitting that this organization receive somereward for their constant effort, for "Technicalities" hasbeen in rehea rsal almost all of Four months. Of all under-graduate activities, Tech Show is undoubtedly faced by th(greatest problems, financial and otherwise. It must be supported entirely by its audiences, it must conceive its owerpresentations, compose its own score, construct its own setsand finally, organize the mass of material. No effort icspared in the attempt to offer a production as well-balancedas a professional revue.

In its history, Tech Show has offered Mlilstrel, Melodramaand Musical Comedy. Unfortunately, after the w-ar its popu.larity diminished considerably, and thoug-h lo small amountof time and trouble was spent in striaing to revive its form.er success, it was not until two years ago, with the reorganization of the musical comedy form into a revue, thatthis end weas reached. Thereupon it was decided to continue with the revue form, and "Technicalities" represents theresult of twvo years of successful experience.

The members of Tech `oh-o- merit everv commendation fo-the effort which they must expend, and are most certainl:deserving of the earnest support of the undergraduate bodyEdith a season opening as encouragingly as it did last weelit may be expected that "Technicalities" will be as entertaining a revue as the organization is capable of producing.

Meet In Many Events; ToName Others Soon

Having finished tle trials for the

Dartmouth meet, tle freshmen are

prepared to spend tle next week in a

stiff training pro-gram to keep them

in their best shape. and tley will leave

for Hanover on Fr iday, at approxi-

mnatelY four-thirty. as plans now stand.

Tlhe meet oln Saturday was all that

could 11ave been desired. from a train-

ing= standpoint. but tle team was dis-

approinted to fail in br·eaking any rec-

ordis.Va sity men are gettings in shape

fort thle inter-class meet a week from

next Saturday afterlloon, and are in

better trim tlan they- 1ave been since

Clhristmas. Some of tle men -wereelltered in tle meet last *veek. and

there were two events. tle 60-y ard low

hur dles, and tle 500-yar d r un, wlicl

permitted only VTarsity- team membersto compete. AScKay- took first in the

five hundred witll Bell trailing by a

Men Picked for Dartmouth MeetMen who a e to 'o to Hllaiovel to

represent tle fiseslnieii have not yet

bleen picked in all the events, but the

trlials Saturday- placed most of theing accurately, Coach Iedllund believes

that tle few cases in whicl indecision

exists will be settled by indiv'idual

i nnatcles. Tlelre are not nnlimited en-

2 tries ill tle races. Ibut of coiirse thefiekl events will see all tle inen tlat

3 shoI'tei' races. suchi as tle dashes,

l only two meni are aliowedl to enter,

and as thle lengtlhs incrlease tle num-

i 1er of entl ies is inci eased.

A'inerman and Jewvett are prettysui'e of places in tle slot put, as tley

hlave led tle rather small field of

fr eshman weight men by a consider-

ab(le amount. The ligl junip will be

e camried by Tonmlinson, Galitis, and Hill,

one, t\o, or all tlree of them making

NOTED LECTURERTELLS OF WORLD

DANGER CENTERSSherwood Eddy Is Applauded

By Audience for Views onForeign Topics

PLANS NEW SOCIAL ORDER

Speaking Friday afternoon beforeall enthrusiastic audience wlich com-pletely filled 10-250, Sherwood Eddy,noted world tlraveler and interiiation-

ally famous lecturer, described presentconditions all over the world and inparticular Russia and India which maylead to a serious unheaval beforelong. He described the good and badpoints of Russia's five year plan andhow the principles that GTandhi is set-ting forth in India may deepen unrest.

According to Mr. Eddy, the Germansituation is badly in need of atten-tion. The last elections, he contends,show the unwillingness of the peopleto bear the war debts much- longerantl the increasing number of Social-ists and Fascists in tle Reichstag willsoon overtlrow tle republic. "Withthe plessure from tle West to pay helrdebts at the cost of a lowering wagescale and standard of living, there willeome an increasing pl essure from Rus-sia on the East anl from the Natiol-alists within to tlrow off this yoke,"

Russian Situation Is ComplexIn Russia, stated Mr. Eddy, the sit-

uation is more complex, because the-niniense population with their almostfanatical desire to make the Five Yearplan succeed is compelling them toundergo discomfol'ts that otber- na-tions would not tolerate. "Economical-ly, the plan," declal ed the speaker."Is succeeding and will continue tosucceed regardless of tle weekly re-ports that tle gover nment is failingal1 dthe people are starving which aremostly untruue.-

Russia is now at lel VTalley Forgeand is a world laboratoly of social ex-

eleimenlt. aceording to Mr. Eddy.'"hen tle lai gest countl'y in thewolld,' lie says, "tries the boldest ex-pelriment in hlstoi y, sonmething is go-in- to hlappen eitler for good or evil.Cl -eater evil will loubtless come outbf Russia than ever came out of theF1·encll I evolution, as well as greatergood. in spite of the liberty, equalityand fraternity of Republican France."The spealker contends that we shouldrecognize Soviet Russia, just as Waslb-in-ton and Jefferson recog-ized thenew Republic of FranCe despite itsregicide, red terror, guillotine andrampant atleism.

Russian-American IdealWitli considerable emplasis, lie in-

sisted that America's contribution oflilberty combined witl Russia's con-tribution of social justice would makefor a higher social standard thatwould insure flreedom, justice and un-ion for the onie alld tle mnany. Tlis isthle ileal, he insists, that will free theworld from tle unl est and slavei sthat exists today.

In India tle scene cllances a little,stated the traveler. and a careful ob-sel ver notices a struggle for bettelthings being carried on ly peacefulmeans ratler than lvy compulsion asexists in Russia. Indlia, under itsstran-e leader, is; askiilg for (1) earlydomillion statucs, a status tlat would-ive the Indians eqluality witl thle Brit-islh within India and recognized racialequality within the eminire, witl thesainle right of self dletei mination asothelr self -overning dominions: (2)responsille central gover nment; (3)
