TO REDUCE ATTENDANCEI

Tentative plans of the committee incharge call for holding Open HouseNight this year on1 April 17, the Sat-urday beginning JuniLOT Week. Inthe past few years it has been heldbefore Junior Week.

The committee thinks that holdingit during the spring Tecess will provean advantage by enabling the attend-ance of friends and relatives of Tech-nology stu~dents who are in Bostonfor the week's activities. The attend-ance last year was conservatively es.timated at six thousand, but it is in-tended to reduce the number thisyear, and limit the -number of themerely curious.

Invitations will be sent out to menprominent in public life, men inter-elsted in engineering and science, bus-inesgs firms; high schools, and prepar-atory schools. As in previous yearsstudents 'will act as guides, but therewill probably be a different systemused in handling the crowds. Morefunds have been allowed this year bythe various professional societies. Itis intended to round out the programwith music, and several undergraduateactivities will participate.IThe chairman of the committee is

W. H Emerson '26. In charge of thecommittee ona receptions is D. H. Mc-Culloch '26, program committee, E.P. Knight '26; publicity, A. D. Green'2¢. Other members are WilliamMeehan '26, R. E. Connett '26, L. B.Riley '26, J. O. Collins '27, H. E.Curtis '29

M. I. T. CREW NOTTO BE IN REGATTA

AT POUGHKEEPSIETechnology Forced to Decline

Opportunity to Row onThe Hudson

DUE TO LACK OF FUNDS

Second Invitation to Intercol-legiate Races Has Been

Refused

In a letter recently received by theAthletic Association from the Inter-collegiate Rowing Association, Tech-nology was extended an invitation toenter crews in the annual crew re-gatta which will be held this year atPoughkeepsie on Monday, June 28,1926. In this regatta there will -be, asusual, three races. First, the freshmanrace of two miles; second, the JuniorVarsity race of three miles; and fi-:dally, the Varsity race over a fourmile course.

Upon the advice of the AdvisoryCouncil on Athletics, however, R. M.Bigeloiw '27, manager of crew, de-clined the invitation because the smallamount of money which the AthleticAssociation receives would not permithim to enter even one crew in thisnational race. Bigelow says in hisreply to the invitation that "at presentwe are handicapped by a lack of fundswhich, unless something unforeseenhappens will make it impossible forus to enter a crew in any of theevents."

. This is the second time that Tech-4nology has been extended an invita-tilon to enter crews in the annualg .oughkeepsie Regatta and so far nocresw has been entered from the In-stitute. This race on the Hudslon isone of considerable importance inrowing circles as most of the strongrowing colleges in this country sendcompeting crews. The field at theregatta will probably consist of rep-resentatives from Cornell, Syracuse,Princeton, Navy and Washington.

PRACTISE FOR TUFTSDEBATE OPEN TO ALL

D. M. Fuller, debating coach at Tech-nology, announces that the two prac-tise ddbates which the Varsity andfreshman teams will hold Wednes-(lay and Thursday will be open to allinterested.

Wednesday's debate will be for thepurpose of practising for the meetwmith Tufts Friday evening, and will beheld in room 2^190 at three o'clock.The reglar Varsity team will upholdthe negative of the question, "Re-solved, that the United States shouldenter the League of Nations." Theaffirmative team in the practice meetwill be made up of other members ofthe Debating Socliety.

Before a large gathering of North-eastern rooters in the HuntingtonAvenue gym, the Northeastern quintetovercame a one point lead in the lastthree minutes of play, came to the foreand defeated the Cardinal and Graybasketball team by a close score of25-20.

Captain Bill Forrester was again theguiding star of the Cardinal and Grayteam, his fast and accurate castingaccounting for no less than twelvepoints toward the Technology cause.Estes, Mock, Hinck and Myers playedhard basketball throughout the en-counter but were quite unfortunate indropping the ball through the net.Kaobera, pivot men for the Back Baycontingent, was the high scorer forhis team, duplicating Forrester's workiwith four floor goals and as manyftrom the free throw mark.

Northeastern Scores FirstNortheastern drew first blood and

after a couple minutes of play CaptainRtenker of Northeastern scored thefirst point of the game by a prettyshot from side court. Captain F`0T-rester responded for Technology witha nice two pointer from quarter court.All during the first half the lead con-stantly changed hands first on oneside and then on the other, and whenthe whistle blew at the end of the firsthalf Northeasterr was on top by ascore of 13-10.

The second half was more closelycontested than the first . Although theplay all around was clean, there wasa great deal of fouling, due to the ea-gerness of the individual players. Raf-Lone of Northeastern and Myers of,Technology were banished from thegamze by the personal foul route. Threeminutes before the close of the gameEstes looped il a two pointer and1-finck followed with a foul shot whichgave Technology a lead of one point.Then Northeastern opened an attackwhich appealed like a bolt of thunder

LARGE CROWD HEARSCONCERT IN LOWELL

Complete Program is Present-ed To Audience of 400

Seventy members of the MusicalClubs made tle trip to Lowell lastFriday evening where they Save aconcert which. il the opinion of theClub's management, was the most suc-cessful one which has been given sofar this year. The trip to Lowell wasmade in four large Gray Line Bussesand took considerable time because ofpoor road conditions.

All of the r egular numbe),r~s of tlheprogriam were given and the audivncceproved to be the most enthusiasticonlle to which the concert has beengiven. A large number of girls fromthe Roger's Hall School in Lowell at-tonded il a body increasing the at-lendance to over 400 persons. It washopjed that the Musical Clubs would-ive a concert this year at Roger'sHall, but it was found impossible tomake arrangements for the affair.

Three numbers of the Glee Clubs,"Lzamp in the West," "In the Timeof Roses," and "Old Man Noah" wereis ell received. 'The popular numberspresented by the Techtonians were ac-companied by a specialty dancing actgiven by C. E. Richheimer '28. Be-cause of the success of this act theBanjo Club has engaged Richhedimerto accompany their numbers at futureconcerts.

Although those in charge of Voo'Doo insist that this month's, issue ispractically the first, issue this yearthat has not been dedicated t~o somespecial purpose, as was the "Girls'Number," they do not seem to ;be ableto reconcile themaselves to letting itgo at that, bat have titled the issuewith the all-inclusive caption, "TheFlorida-Aiasxv. Number-with pointsbetween and beyond" putting specialemphasis on the points between andbeyond.

P~hos evidently does not expect thereader to stay long at either extreme,although some mention is made of thepolar regions. It seems that the per-son supplying the caption was inspiredtby that cover of Hurkamp's. The coveris indeed an inspiration. It is one ofthe best we have seen on the Voo Dooand gives quite an insight into con-ditions in the Peninsula State.

Valuable Antique UnearthedOne of the more noticeable "'points

5etween and beyond" is "'UnsolicitedTestimonial No. 2"-"Amid the mon-otonous hum of Tech life, the VooDoo sounds an invaluable lyric noteof mirth. It need fear no comparisonwith other college comics. I wouldback it against an open field." Thisfrom Penfield Roberts is accompaniedby a likeness of the author, which toour mind could be a little better pro-portioned. The testimonial was writ-ten in 1922!IThe editorial page this month is un-x

usual. in some respects. Whether ornot this is due to ant change in edi-torial policy or 'not we a-re in 'no posi-tion to say, burt still we insist thatit is a trifle out of-the ordinary. The,first edit concerning the sad, 'nay dis-astrous results of examinations is ap-parently harping on an old string forthe sake of a little humor attachedthereto, but the remaining two ex-pre~ssions -of the editorial pen are orig-inal. One of them is clever, and theother is ulnusulal.

Art Work Is Very GoodAnother new tendency is noticeable

as we glance through the issue. Phos-pqhorous has been encouraging sever-al of his female prodigies to help himbrighten the pages of -the comic. This,encouragement has been effective too,for the drawings by Alice ClevenlgeTand Babe French are quite worthy ofmention.

Frankly, we consider the art work,

the main feature of thie issue. Tjheagile-fingered Kane throws his jester'swand at the, North Pole expeditions.In execution in idea it is worthy ofspace in the professional magazines.Two full pages by Elmer are, as usual,well done. Tdhe first los-es somewhatof its full effectiveness because of theliterary effort attached thereto, but the.second, on page 17, is inspiring ofcomment with special emphasis on thequaint perching of Phaos himself onthe porch as he watches the collegiatecouple leave for an evening's enter-tainment.

As we pursue our Florida-Alaskaitinerary, we arrive at "Announce-ments as They Are No t," at whichplace we emit a gay chuckle. "TheBanquet," our next stop, is a ratheradroit collection of advertising sloganswhipped into a running narratives.

In our survey of the issue, we wouldhave wound up with no bad taste inour mouth had we missed seeing thatjoke about Caesar proposing. It musthave been concocted by Caesar's jest-er the morning after the night before.We offer 60,000 denarii for the obliter-ation of this antique. Nevertheless,when the reader a-rrives at the endof his little itinerary on the Flori~da-Alaska Special he will have had aspleasant a divertisement, as the usualcollege comic could give him. We cansurely say that Voo Doo this monthis commendably acceptable.

Conafetti, Confetti, confetti-at leastthat's the way the Fraternities Clubstruck the Lounger last Friday eveningas be wandered in to take advantageof an invitation to a much advertised"free party." He first encountered evi-dence of the stuff as he entered thehall and by the time he had reachedthe ballroom downstairs he couldn'tsee the floor for waste paper.

The varicolored bits of paper servedtheir purpose veryswell. Besides giv-ing the desired motley appearance andstimulating the general attitude ofcarefree abandon in the crowd, which,to be frank, did not need much moreartificial stimulations the confetti pro-vided a harmless outlet for the pent-

up playfulness of many of the "boys,"who could be seen running aroundwith great handfuls of it showeringeach other.' Really 'it doesn't take agreat deal to rejuvenate. some of us.

The affalir was a novelty at any rate.It gave the appearance of a glorifiedfraternity house danceonly verymuch glorified in several respects. TheLounger is heartily in favor of biggerand better "free parties" if he maylay aside his loun-govtial dignity to de-scend to the mercenary.

To hear outsiders and particularlypeople from other colleges, call Tech-nology men "plumbeTS" used to strikethe Lounger as the acme of calumny.In three and ha-If whole years of hiselusive pursuit of scientific knowledge,if he had touched a pipe or turned avalve, it was merely to adjust thesteam in the radiator. To his innocentmind that epithet of scorn seemedwholly incongruous, absurd, andgroundless.

Just consider the implications,-aplumber, formerly one who plumbed,whatever that may have been, and nowonly a seedy individual who is calledupon by the housewife to right awrong in the water system. Doubtlessa very worthy occupation, and an in-dispensable one, but one that he per-sonally regarded as being as far fromathe distinguished field of sciealtific in-quiry that he is interested in as is thestar of Betelgeuse. The graduate ofthe foremost technical school in thecountry a plumber,-indescribable Isa-tire.

But the Lounger has been humbledand his ideals of engineering have de-scended to the dust. He must hang hishead when that -disgusting term i~smentioned, for he has come to the aw-ful realization that he is no less thana plumber, or 'rather no more than aplumber. 0 cruel Fate, that thoushlouldst so deceive one!' 'Twas hisbachelor's thesis that caused thescales to fall from his eyes. To con-struct an apparatus, seemingly consist-ing of nothing but pipes, and valves,and tanks, fell to his lot. Hours of hap-less expenditure of energy with angleconnections, three-foot wrenches, andhack-saws, has endowed that former-ly so cursed appelatlion with a halo. To-be a plumber, a good plumber, thatwould be bliss. But, as they say, prac-tice gives perfection, and perhaps he,too, shall some day be adept at thatexcellenlt and difficult trade. And in-dications are that it is more lucrativethan the jobs most nlewly-g&raduatedengzineers get.

The Loun-ger was startled, to say theleast, wlvn he picked up a copy ofascandal sheet fronl Wellesley College.Not that he was shocked by the scan-dal, a hasty sm-arch proved that all wasinnocently devoid of even a spicy in-sinuati-on. What startled him was thefact that the "Wellesley Patriot" bur-lesqued the metropolitan yellow-sheets. Really we neveT thought thatanything but the Transcript was toler-rated at the college. Someone's beenpeeking.

L IARG:E number of Teehnology men are characterized by twoAattitudes. They hold, ill the first place, that thoy are attending

the world's only impeccable engineering school. The fact that Tech-nology is a great school serves as an excuse for them to bloat theirown importance and to create delusions of self-grandeur.- In thesecond place, they have an attitude that the Institute is a placeentirely different from any other spot in the world, that as a collegeit is subject to none of the human laws that other colleges are sub-ject to. From this belief, springs a -whole basket-full of excuses. Ifthe track team does not win or the m~usical clubs have a rotten sea-son, the reason that is immediately assigned is that of our institutionaleccentricity. If one publication is dull and others are dulller theyare both excused and tolerated because Technology is different. AsTechnology activities, they cannot be expected to make good -howoften is that sentiment expressed weekly by meek and resigned Tech-nology men? How often is this weak dodge and satisfying sophistryspilled in undergraduate conversation?

These attitudes have done no inco~nsiderable harm to our under-graduate life. Combining as they do a sort of passive snobbishnesswith a streak of weak apology they fuse into a personal compoundthat is at once obnoxious and weakening. The personal snobberyof a Harvard man is in many respects more acceptable than the localconceit based upon institutional worship. And more acceptable is theacademic "arm-waving" and enthusiasm that is the very prevalentlocal attitude of explaining all our short-comings by the mythologythat the tremendous and oppressive, amount of hard work here for-ever prevents well conducted activities and successful athletics.

THE WHITING LECTURES

IN SEARCHING through old volumes of THIE TECH of 40 years agofor material for our "Looking Backward" column, our features

writer found a statement to the effect that the "gentlemen's indoormeet * * * was given up because of the lack of gentlemen." Severalof our Alumni have told us recently that the average college manhas mutch more regard for the amenities of social intercourse than heused to have, and while we do not take the above mentioned quota-tion too ,scriollsly, it seems to bear out their statement. Whether itis because the colleges have consciously or unconsciously injected allCw illfllence into the curriculum or whether it is because the cor-respoindence schools and Emily Post have been offeringS 'Etiqvlettein Ten Ljessons," there are, fewv college men who cannot tell. what iswrong with the picture or why she shouldn't have ordered chickensalad for the third time. There are few men who do not realize tilenecessity for cultivating social contacts as a part of their education.

But proper behavior, proper dress and the'ability to mix withother people are only- the external evidences of the educated iean.Behind this veneer of aequired social polish must lie something nloIe

substantial a liberal broad knowledge of the fieloss of art, science,and literature. At Technology, we are trained in the professional ap-plications of applied science, but it is the duty of each of us to ac-quaint ourselves with the other branches of learning.

Music is sulch a branch of learning, and wve should at least ,-aequiresome knowvledge -of it. The F'ac-lty and the Corporation of the In-stitute have placed an opportunity to become familiar with thehistory of music in the series of lectures by Mr. Arthur Whiting, thefirst of wrhich will be givrel tomorrow evening. He will diseussPapor a, Beethoven, Schumann and Cesar Franck, representativecomposers of the 18th and 19th centuries. The series should receivethle whole-hearted support of the entire student body, both from thefact that they oftfer ant opportunity to become familiar with music, butbeeause of Mr. Whiting's reputation as a lecturer and pianist.

As in former years the navy menlived up to their established reputa-tion that they are without a peer inintercollegiate gym -team- competition.As every manl is required to go outfor some sport at the naval academy,"he gym team has several hundredcandidates from which to pick andhence their teams axe far superior tXthe aver-age college teams.

one of the best exhibitions of themeet was that given by Stroop) onthe flyingg rings. Stroop, who is cap-tain of the team, is all round in-ter-collegixte champion. Zitzowitz with afirst and second to his credit -was highpoint man for the meet.

Technology had a bit of hard luckin the meet when Smith slipped onthe parallel bars, thereby losing a

Iplace; and when Waller ran off themat and lost a sure second 'place.

After forty-five- minutes of- the mostLgruelling kind of hockey, the Tech-nology team just managed to squeezeout a victory by a one point marginfrom a Bowdoin. sextet whose improve-ment during the last few weeks hasbeen parallelled only by the Cam-,bridge team itself. The score 4-3 givesbut a slight indication of how evenlymatched the two teams were.

Bowdoin began the scoring in thenmiddle of the first period when Put-man and Cutter, pairing up perfectly,took the d-isk from their own quarterice, straight down through the Engi-neer defense where Putman drove a.,side rebound shot by Bill Richards forthe opening goal. Feor the next fewminutes, neithesr side displayed amarked advantage over the other, but,as the period waned, Berkeley andRandall made several threats, keepingthe rubber in 13owdoina territory con-stantly.

Randall Stars For M. 1. T.At the opening Ot the second ses-.

sion, Randall began to sol;. up Me6opposing defense and soon demon-strated why Boston University teamwork failed to function in the lastB. U.-Engineer game. He seemed tobe right-in-the- middle of all Bowdoincombinations and in short made quitea nuisance -of himself to the Maineplayers. After about five minutes ofscrimmage, he duplicated Putnam'swork of the first period by caging arebound for the tying score.

Hardly a minute after this, SamBrooks took the puck from mid-icescrimmage to lift a high, hard driveat Perry the opposing goalie. WitbTechnology in the le-ad, Dowdoin. be-gan a series of desperate sallies forthe remainder of the period. Thayerbroke through the defense, Cuttersmashed through, Putman did -thesame but they could not put over thetally that would tie the score.

Wilth the beginning -of the thirdperiod, the best hockey of the gamewas" shown. Both sides took the of-fensive and the play became fast andfurious. The teams had hardly takenthe ice before Cutter, Working withThayer,, drove in a difficult shot fromthe side lines. This put the players oneven terms again.

At this time, Bill Berkeley beganplaying a really hard game. He andRandall teamed up and car ried thedisk down the ice for about four min-utees before he finally whizzed a longquarter ice -shot by Perry's legs. Ran-dall duplicated the shot a few min-utes later when he -snapped on in fromalmo-st the identical position.

With but three minutes of the gameleft, Bwdoin took its last stand. Longshots by the Enginleers served to keepthe puck far away from a threateningPosition. the continued attempts ofthe Maine men would not be deniedthough and Cole finally slipped oneinto the cage for the closing markeras the game ended.

In tthe second game of their two dayroad,.,rip, the Technology hockey teamwent down to defeat at the hands ofa formidsable Bates aggregation by a5-4 score. Apparently wo-rn Gut by thestrain of playing tw~o games on suc-cessive days, the Engineers just letup enough in the last minute of playto allow -the ale~rt Maine wings tobreak through for the winning tally.

At gthe sta~rt of the match, the Cam-bridge squad had things all their o8wnway. Weissner and Brooks each drovethrough a tally befsore the Lewistonboys could off er any defense. Tech-n~ology team work in this session was

mnuslually good, not one of the goalslhaving been scored by individualwork.

Toward the close of the first periodBates began to grow more confidentand just before the whistle blew,Erdckson and W~hite had tied up thescore by successive derives into thecage. In the second period Technol-ogy again took the offense when Rean-dall carried .the puck from mid iceto slip -one. through the goal tend.Play at this time became very warmand scrimmgaes frequenst. Poster, incombinatio>n with L~ane then, againkn'oted the count when he snappedone from the, boards that just eludedBill Richards.

In the closing session the Engine-ers forged ahead once more 'whey Ran-dall caged a hard drive from quar--ter ice. A few minutes, later Ericksontiepd the game once, more an a scrim-mage play directly in front of thegoal. Crandall and Berkeley madethree serious, threats at the Batesgoal, but Wyllie, who was the cagedefender, managed to withstand them.With, less than a minute to play,W~hite raced the full length of the iceto make a very pretty individual scorethat proved to be the grinning tally.

Randall and Berkeley starred forTechnology, the former being the fast-est and best all1 around player oneither team. Erickson and Whitewere the outstanding men on theMaine team, each scoring twice. Thegame, was very cleanly played, onljyon~e penalty being imposed during Vieentire forty-five minutes.

THE TIE H

SCIENCE LECSTURtEBY DR. FRANKLIN

Talk Is Illustrated By ManyClassical Experiments of

Old Masters

"Every day I thank Heaven that thefive hundred thousand college studentsof the U~nited States do not havescholastic ideals," was the assertionof Professor W. S. Franklin who deliv.ered the popular science lecture yes-terday in room 10-250 at 4 o'clock. Thelecture was entitled "Small Begin--nings in Science and Their Epoch-Making Consequences."

Professor Franklin believes that theworld would be the sufferer if stu-denlts were all scholastically in-clined, for none of the great thingsthat youth gives to civilization wouldthen be secured. He does not, how-ever, feel, as do so many others, thatthe basic quality of youth is freedomof care, but that it is enthusiasm,and that from this enthusiasm greatthings come.

"You can fool part -of the people allof the time, and all the people someof the time," it is said, "but you can'tfool these young people any of thetihne," he said. "Youth will find thatscience is not, as usually believed, ameans for securing new luxuries forthe pleasure-mad, joy-riding public,but an opportunity for finding- outabout the wonderful things of theworld." The future of science lies inyouth, Dr. Franklin believes.

The lecture was illustrated by sev-eral of the classical experiments ofLord Kelvin, Galileo, and others.Much interest was shown by the audi-ence in the projection on the screenof electroplating a piece of lead im-mersed in lead nitrate solution.

BOYS' CLUB BEATSFRO)SH COURT TEAM

SBerny M~organ's fighting frosh courtteam dropped a clean hard battle tothe ]Boston Boys Club five at theGreen Street gymo, home of the clubJboys, by a score of 48-31.

Insomuch as the club boys have aclean -slate to date, the Cardinal andGray five went down to a glorious de-feat in last Saturday's tussle. Thelocal presented a tough set of playswhich, ill fact, was a little too muchfor Berny Morgan's charges to solve.The club boys started the scoring im-mediately after the opening whistleblew and were never headed.

Hughes of the boys led the scoringfor the victors with six floor basketsand three from the foul line Zor a totalof fifteen points. For TechnologyNorm McClilltock took the lions shareof the honors with six two-pointersaend a single point by the free thromrroute. Conti took second scoring hon-ors for Tecllnology with five floorgo alIs.
