COMMITE WILLSOLICIT IN DRIVE

I Endowment Committee to ReactMen Individually for

Subscriptions

Up to the present time approximately325 endowment policies lave been ta-ken out by the Senior class, which num-bers 630 men, making the percentagesubscription 51. Those in charge ofthe drive have decided on a change oftactics, whereby each man who has notsigned up will be individually approach-ed by some member of the sub-commit-tees.

Last week letters were sent to eachfraternity, with lists of the men whohad not signed up, along with applica-tions. All men who were formerlymemb~ers of the- Class of 1925 and haddropped out of the Institute duringtheir Sophomlore or Junior years werealso sent application forms. The resultsfrom these letters are very encourag-ing according to the committee.

Tlle method of individual approachweas used last year, and netter a totalof 440 policies, giving the Class of1924 more than 75 per cent subscrip-tion, and endowing the Institute with$110,000. Each memlber of the sub-committees wil be given four or fivemten to approach, so that ill this wayte entire membership of the class whichhas not subscribed, may b~e met in-dividually. The committee in chargehopes to excede the number of policiesobtained last year and secure a totalof 450 sign-ups.

NEW MEMBERS ELECTEDTO THE T. C. A. CABINET

Lecturer is Chief of the Colorimetry Section of Bureau

of Standards

Dr. Irwvin G.' Priest, Chief of th,colorinietry section of the Bureau oStandards, will deliver the first of series of three lectures on Colorimetrthis afternoon at 4 o'clock in rooDnesday at 'the samze hour and in thi4-231. He will talk tomorrow and Wedsamie room.

Having been associated with the Bu.reau of Standards since 1907, Dr. Priesis considered an authority upon thosubject of his lectures. He has ocrcupied the position of Chief of the Colorinlletry Section since 1913, and in 191!attained the rank of Physicist. He ha!become well recognized in the scientific world, enjoying the distinction c:being a Fellow of the Amlerican Acade.my for the-A~dvancement ot Science an~the American Physical Society aLnd Sec.retanrx of the Optical Society of Amer.ica. He was graduated from the Ohi(State University as a B. A. with th(class of '07.

Colorimetry and Its ApplicationIli his talks, Dr. Priest will discus~

the salient features and principles clthe theory and practice -of color speci-fication in science, art, and industryAccording to the lecturer, he will ad-dress himself not only to those whchare a de-finite interest in the problemof color specification but also to thosewho may have only a casual culturalinterest in this specialty.

Today's lecture will be given overto the discussion of phychological, phy-sical, and psychophysical principles, da-ta, and relations of colarimetry andtheir application to the color gradingof materials. Among the topics to beconsidered in the second lecture of theseries are the visibility of radiant en-ergy, brilliance and brightness, hue, thequality of color and the spectral distri-bution of the stimulus.

In the third -and concluding lecture,Dr. Priest will give examples of thefundamental methods and instrumentsused in colorimetry, illustrated by de-scriptions of apparatus and methods inactual use at the Bureau of Standards.

WILL SHOW PAINTINGS^ IN LOBBY THIS WEEK

A4 set of eight oil paintings relatingto the development and uses of illum-inating gas, the work of F. L. Stod-dard will be displaved in the main lob-

,by sometime next week. Professor R..T Haslam, in charge of the new Gasand Fuel Engineering course, is spon-soring the exhibition in the interestsof the course.

These paintings were originally madefor exhibition at the convention of theAmerican Gas Association held in At-lantic Citv last vear, but because oftheir educational value are being loan-

ed to colleges, libraries and clubs. Theyare of unusual interest in view of Pro-fessor Haslarn's statement that "con-trary to popular ideas, the use of, gasfor heating is increasing rather thandecreasing, especially Ji industries

wphere rigid control of temperaturemust be maintained."

Tlvo of the pictures represent his-torical incidents-in the story of inlflam-mnable gas. The first shows the dis-covery -niade by Van Helmont in 1609,who when searching for the Philoso-pher's Stone accidently ignited the gascoming from some coal he was distil-Iing. He called his gas "The Wild Spir-it." The second calls to mind the pro-phecy made by Murdock in 1804 whendemonstrating burning gas to somefriends, "Yonder lies London drenchedin smoke. Here, gentleman, is gas, theremedy."

ITHE OPEN FORUMTo the Editor:

I have been asked to recommend aman for a very unusual opportunity.

A wealthy American manufacturer isplanning to leave this country for anextended trip around the worid, which

would be about two Nears in duration.He desires to have a fellow between

the ages of twenty-five and thirty gowith him as a sort of traveling com-

panion and secretary. The man shouldhave a good general knowledge ofFrench and Spanish, be able to run atypewriter, take dictation, and possesssome knowledge of photography.If exactly tile right man could be

found his expenses would, of course,be paid, however, if the man could paypart expenses and has done some trav-eling before, undoubtedly the other re-quirements would not be so exacting.If any of your readers are interestedand believe they could fulfil these qual-ifications, or during the several monthsbefore a start could acquire a knowl-edge of any in which they are defi-

:ient, I would be pleased to have themwrite me a letter which I could for-yard to the gentleman who is making.he trip. No applications other than

:hose in writing will be considered nor-an I furnish any further informationxcept by referring the letter to him.

ABOLISHING BILLBOARDS

THE Commonwealth, as it insists on uniquely calling itself, is everto the fore in progressive abolishments. The latest taboo to

issue forth is on all roadside signboard exceeding certain limits insize. For several years we have had agitation from certain quartersfor such legislation and Massachusetts is first to answer the call.

The ruling however, to judge by the threatened court action,does not seem to be unanimously favored. The advertisers, the ad-vertising companies, the sign painters and, not least, the farmers onwhose land the signs are placed all unite in protest. It is readilyunderstood what the objections of the first group of these are, butwhy should the farmer not be pleased? His land is beautified.

Reformers seldom look to the interests of the reformed. Whatthe farmer cares for is the productivity and not the beauty of hisland. Income from billboards, we understand, often pays half thetaxes. Naturally the farmer wants them to stay. He feels thatsomething is being put over on him by the city man whose Sundayafternoon drive is being spoiled. Aild likely it is-as remarked,reformers seldom look to the interest of the reformed.

DOSTOIEVSKY, EXACTLY, IS MODERN

LDOUS HUXLEY recently set his critical pen to defining whatA is really modern. In answering the question "\What, exactly

is modern" he casts aside those things which are deemed fashionableand in vogue, particularly non-realism in art and the trivially eccen-tric dadaism in literature. "Let us not," he asks, "abuse a veryuseful and significant word by applying it indiscriminately to every-thing that happens to be contemporary."

But that is the negative side and Huxley does not stop there.He tells -what lie thinks is modern, and in literature he names Dos-toievsky, saying in part:

"Thus, the most modern novelist who ever wrote is certainlyDostoievsky. That he happen to die in 1881 makes no differenceto his modernity. His subtlety, his sensitiveness, his intelligenceremain unsurpassed and hardly approached. His novels are still the fmost complete and characteristic product of the modern mind. . . . .But he was so excessively and abnormally modern that it will prob- lably be several centuries before the rest of us have become abreast cof him." a

This is of particular interest at present because a small coterie bhas been extensively reading this writer's books, most of which are ein the Walker library. It is a commentary on a certain excellence cof tastes that chooses what is most modern, or, in other words, what vis best. If more could, as G. Stanley Hall worded it "develop a t:discerning mental olfaction" that intuitively finds what is best and timodern and rejects what is fashionable and ancient there would cbe a great deal more reading and cultural efficiency. Too much at- etention cannot be paid to what one reads.

STUDIES IN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

AST 3'ear the students and scholars of Prague organized an In- cternational Federation of University Students. Under the c

auspices of this Federation a series of lecture courses were given at P.Geneva, Switzerland, on international relations. In brief, the lec- stures are intended to foster fellowship and interchange of ideas samong the university students of the various countries. This year, T

under the direction of Owen D. Young, reparations collector, anAmerican branch of this federation has been established, and 30,000 _American students have given their intentions of taking this course -of lectures this summer at Geneva.

Of all the discussions that the "man on the street" carries on,of lhowv we should preserve world peace, probably, this new plan isthe nearest approach to the ideal. Such a study of internationalrelations will without question place a tool in the hands of theAmerican student, and when the time comes when he will be a lead-ing figure in American politics. The lack of American knowledgein foreign relations in the past was the basic cause of the disap-proval of the League of Nations and The World's Court.

This summer, thousands of mnen icolieges all over the country will fac

tana. There is work of all kinds in amining town, and in summer large num-bers of college men get jobs in andaround the mines.

The work is not too hard, and, al.though very dirty, is not unpleasant,because plenty of hot. showers are pro-vided for the men as they leave themines. The regular miners and groundworkers who come in contact with thecollege nien who are working for thesummer are almost all either nativeAmericans or practically completelyAmericanized, and are very friendly andinterested, as soon as they becomeslightly acquainted.

Among these men is found a truedemocracy: in it there is no questionof rank or station, as long as the new

man is found to be a "regular fellow,"he is accepted without further question.

In case of distress or want on the partof any of their number, they respondwith unbelievable generosity, sharingeverything that they have.

Fortunately for the man with thesummer job, the mine-unions do not ob-

ject strongly to the influx of non-unioncollege labor in summer. They merelyrequire that each non-union transienttake out a "rustling-card," which con-tains such information as the age,height, weight, and former jobs of theholder. This serves as an identifica-tion in case of necessity, and is held bythe employing company.

~~~~~~~~~~~~t

r~~~~~~~~~~~~~the necessity of finding a job, and willhave to decide whether they must pro-vide for their immediate wants byworking at any sort of labor that willpay them well. or seek to gain valuableexperience along lines that they in-tend to follow after graduation. Nat-urally, with the market flooded withcollege labor, the employer has the ad-vantage, and the job-hunter takes whatlie can get: but he can at least choosethe industry in which he is to spendseveral months.The view has been advanced, and not

withou t reason, that the value of theexperience lies in the contact withten who work w ith their hands in or-

der to live, and have a different pointof view from the m en who live on a

college canpus: that only in very ex-ceptional cases is the student sufficient-tv advanced in his line of work tosrofit greatly from the actual work

that he does. This theory seemns to belogical applied to classical and acade-mic students: the men in technical col-leges, however, are often able to findjobs that fit in perfectly with theircourses, and prove v ery valuable tothem as professional education. Thework ,which their knowledge enables

them to do is greatly underpaid, incomparison with even the most ele-

mentary types of manual labor: this isno more than just, since the first workthat anyi technical man undertakes fora coniniercial organization is likely tocost them several times his salary,

counting up the time wasted by hlssuperiors in setting him right and keep-ing him out of mischief.

Relations with Fellow-EmployeesThe better type of college man is suf-

ficiently cheerful and democratic to getalong perfectly with the man next to

him, whe ther they ar e running deli-cate tests in a laboratory or shovel-ling niud out of a ditch. In some Cases,

however , it is impossible to do morethat} keep quiet and d o your own

work without cogasent. This was thecase of a man who worked in the shopsof a street-railway compariv in New

York City last summer. The other menn the shop wer e for eigners, and re-

garded him suspiciously.Like the hero of a novel of indus-

trv, he tried to make friends, but failedin a most unheroic manner. His over-ures w ere received in sullen silenceDr with scornful comment in sonic for-eign language. They laughed at hisclothes, which w ere not ext reme in:ut and color, as theirs were, and were)ffended because his neck was always:lean when lie came to work in thenorsing, even if it was coal black af-.er five minutes.

Being an obstinate soul, and welli)leased with the salary he was getting,

Ye struck it out all summer. He en-gured silent suspicion as a scab setLmong them to see whether they loaf-,d behind th e foreman's back, which

hey did. They paid him out for this,he inventon of guilty consciousness, byorrowing his tools, and forgetting to

eturn them. This developed hiddenrafits of patince and forgi veness, but:ompletely destroyed any faith in theivth of the brotherhood of man.

The latest outrage to be broughtabout by the far-famed Advance ofScience is the announcement that by 2000A.D. people will have to go to themuseums to see fire. Just think whatthat means--no fireboxes to pull onHalloween; no fire-engines to watch,tearing down the streets; nothing tochase madly after. Picture all the funthe third generation hence, poor things,will be missing.

Technology's freshman track team losta close meet to the University of NewHampshire yearlings at Durham Sat-urday afternoon. The engineer froshcame off with only four first places butwere able to secure enough of the inbetween points to come off with 49 1-3tallies against 67 2-3 for the GraniteState institution.

J. A. O'Hearn of the engineer froshwas severely injured by a javelin tossedby one of his teammates and was im-lnediately removed to the infirmary. Al-though one of the leg arteries was sev-ered, the doctors said later that his con-dition was not serious and that he wouldbe permitted to return to Cambridge ina short time.

Technology made its best showing inthe shot put, when the engineer froshtook all of the three places. CaptainEddie Chute won the mile event in im-pressive style, negotiating the distancein 4 minutes and 43 seconds. Smith oftlhe engineers finished second.

Pete Kirwin made an equally goodshowing by winning the 880 yard dashin the fast time of 2 minutes and 3 sec-onds; Eddie Chute finishing a close sec-ond in this event. The summary:

One hundred yard dash-Won by Atkins (N.H.), second, Miller (T), third, Morris (N.H.). Time-10 3-5s.

Two twenty yard dash--Wqon by Atkins (N.H.), second, Morris (N. H.), third, Miller(T). Time-23 3-5s.

formers of the meet.Two Institute records were forced to*

go by the boards in the hurdles whenHank Steinbrenner after copping firstin the high barriers led the field to awin in the 220 yard lows. Coming overthe last hurdle in the high hurdles,Hank was slightly to the rear of Booth,of Cornell, but by a fast sprint and lotsof fight he was able to break theworsted just ahead of his rival. Histime of 15 4-5 seconds is a record forTechnology and one that is likely tostand for many seasons.

hi the low hurdles he was the firstman over the No. 1 barrier and fromthen on he was never headed, winningby about five yards. Likewise in thisrace his time created a new record of24 1-5 seconds. Both of his times wereO. K.ed by officials at the meet whostated that he was not aided in any wayby a breeze.

"Chink" Drew who leaped into famein the high jump a week ago at theHarvard meet, again came through inthis event by topping the bar at 5 ft.,11 1-2 in. This height is the highestwhich has been reached by any Insti-tute jumper in a long time. After allof the other jumpers had fallen by thewayside Chinck tried several times tobreak the Institute record of 6 ft. 1 1-2in., but was unsuccessful in each at-tempt. In the hammer throw Drewfouled several times and was unable toget off a good heave, so he had to becontent with third place.

Big George Leness came through infine fashion Saturday by winning boththe 440 yard run, and the half-mile.George's specialty is the half and heusually starts the quarter in order toget the kinks out of his legs so that hewill be warmed up for the 880. Sat-urday it turned out that not only washe warming up but he was also lead-ing the entire field to the tape in thedouble furlong, with the clock catchinghim in 51 seconds.

After a slight rest Leness then cameback and won his pet event, namelythe 880, in the fast time of 1 m. 58 2-5 s.The outcome of this race was never indoubt and George loped in an easywinner with his nearest rival Higley ofCornell, many yards behind. This isthe second time in three meets thatLeness has taken the half-mile and inthe Harvard meet he would have wonhad it not been for the fact that hewas running against Soapy Watters,

who up until Saturday-wvas intercolle-giate champion.Had K. A. Smith started his final

sprint in the mile run several secondssooner, he Adwould undoubtedly havebeaten Turmohlen of Cornell who fin-ished first in this event.

CLASS BSBLTO END TOMORROWAfter a very mediocre season, class

baseball will come to a close tomorrowafternoon when the Sophs defend theirtitle from the onslaughts of the frosh.The teams have met before with eachsecuring a victory. For this reason agood game is promised to the fans.

Owing to the lack of spirit on the partof the upperclasses, the fight has nar-rowed down to the two lower teams.Since their defeat at the hands of thefrosh, the Sophs have been'strengthenedI)y the addition of some of last year'sstars, Bill Berkeley and Walt Johnson.Under the direction of coach Steele, theyhave been practicing nearly every day.After giving the Beavers a stiff brushin practice, they feel confident of re-peating.

The frosh, flushed with their victoryover the Seniors, are also confident ofrepeating their early win-over the champs.Coach Ferguson, who now has the froshinfield working like clockwork andstrengthened by pitcher Bernhardt, whoheld the Seniors to three hits, has a teamwhich is not to be underestimated. Thefrosh hitting has also been greatlyimproved over that of the earlier gamesand they expect to pile up a big score...l..............

GROTON BEATS FROSHCREW BY TWO LENGTHS

Technology's freshman crew was de-feated by the smooth rowing delega-tion from Groton on the Nashua RiverCourse Saturday. Groton finished twolengths ahead of the engineer yearlingsover the m11ile and a half course, nego-tiating the distance in 5 m. 12 s.

Groton caught the water first andgained an eairly lead which the Tech-nology frosh were never able to over-come and at the half mile mark, a halflength of open water separated the twoshells. The engineers made a strongbid for first place at the finish line butGroton's stroke met the challenge andfinished a good two lengths for the win.

The rowing orders were as follows:Groton-Bow, Parkinson; 2, Schroder, 3,

LOSE TO TERRIERSLack of Pitchers Forces Art

Merewether to BecomeA Pitcher

CRANDALL STARS AT BAT

Playing a ragged brand of baseballthe Beavers lost the return game withBoston University Saturday afternoon11-10. They were greatly hampered bythe fact that Ingram did not show up forthe game, making it necessary to pitchCaptain Art Merewether when the Ter-riers began to hammer Frank Rhinehart'sofferings in the second. Merewetherpitched a fine game considering that hehas not pitched before this year, but theteam did not back him up, playing stupidbaseball throughout.

Freeman started the game by lettingthe first ball hit get past him at third.Rhinehart however caught Sessler offsecond and then forced Lawless andHigginbottom to ground through thepitcher's box. The Beavers got two intheir half of the first when Cotterwalked. Seeley singled and Crandallwalked. Nickle's sacrifice bunt scoredCotter and Sealey came in on the throw.

Beavers Score Two in FourthIn the second the avalanche of hits be-

galn to flow from the Terrier bats whichmade it necessary to substitute Art Mere-wether for Rhinehart. Merewether stop-ped the hitting, but five runs had alreadythird and struck out Higginbottom. Mc-come across. He picked Sessler offthird and struck out 'Higginbottom. Mc-Donald held the Beavers scoreless intheir half of the second.

In the fourth inning Merewether wasat his best, pitching only four balls.Carlson flied to Cotter in center, andKincaid and Murphy flied to Nickle inleft. The Beavers got two runs acrosswhen .Aerewether was hit, and Crandalland Nickle singled B. U. scored anotherone in the beginning of the fourth withsith singles by Parker, Sessler, and Law-less.

B. U. Goes Ahead in EighthThe fifth inning brought in three more

runs for the Beavers. Merewether drovea long fly to left. Crandall then con-tinued his perfect batting by droppinga homer over in the corner of building4. N ickle was on an error by the B.U. shortstop, the second out of threechances. Freeman singles, scoringNKickle and took third on the throw tocatch Nick-le at home. Freeman wascaught between third and home, one ofthe two squeeze plays that was tried andfizzled. Sasey walked and was broughthome by Michelena's long double..

B. U. went ahead in their eighth byscoring three runs. Parker walked af-ter K. McDonald had been thrown outat first and took second on Michelena'serror. D. McDonald was thrown out atfirst after which another avalanche ofhits started. Sessler singled scoring Par-ker, Lawless drove out the second home-run of the game, and Higginbottom andCarlson singled.

Scoring two in their half of theeighth, the Beavers again tied the score.Bianchi and Cotter singled, were sacri-ficed by Sealy, and scored on Crandall'sfourth hit of the game. The Terrierswent ahead in the ninth when Freemanlet Kechijiar's hit go through his legs,and took second on K McDonald's sac-rifice. Kechijian scored on D. McDon-ald's single.

teenths. which Svracuse covered, with-out being forced at any stage, in 6.301-5. The victory of the Syracuse Jay-vee crew gave the first real line onthe Orange Varsitv strength and im-mediately it came into prominence asa Poughkeepsie contender. The Ju-nior boat Saturday sped down thecourse in all of the form that is typicalof Jim Ten Eyck, and the word wasimmediately passed around that some-thing strong may be expected whenthe Varsity takes the water in com-petition.

Many Thrills in "Jayvee" RaceThe struggles between the Columbia

Junior Varsity and the M. I. T. crewfor second place was the most thrillingbattle of the afternoon. The JuniorVarsity from Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology came down from Boston atits own expense and rowed in a strangeshell, borrowed from the Columbia Na-vy, but even under these disadvantagesthe crew gave the Blue and White abattle all the way and gaining distance,small as it was, over the last quarter-minle.

As the two came under the Wash-ington Bridge, hopelessly trailing Sy-racusc, Columbia had a lead of three-quarters of a length and the oarsmenpulling the Blue and White sweepswere putting every ounce of arm, leg,and back muscle at their command be-hind each stroke in order to hold theadvantage. But M. I. T. fought downthe stretch just as desperately and pick-ed up a quarter of a length in thelast few tugs at the oars, still half alength to the bad, however, at the fin-ish line.

The beatings follow:Columbia University

across the finish line ahead of the rivalboat.

The Bostonians caught the water firstand staved out in front al the way.For the first third of the distance theColumbia boat kept within striking dis-tance and proved a threat, evidentlygoing along easily, but when M. I. T.put fourth its first challenge, Columbiawas unable to mneet it and open waterbegan to appear between the stern ofthe M. I. T. boat and the bow of Co-lumbia's shell.

Down the river they came with theBostonians feeling the first thrill ofsupremacy this season. As the dis-tance between the two crews widenedthe M. I. T. oarsmen seenmed to gainstrength and increased their stroke witheach sweep of the oars. Slowly andsteadily they gained and as they cameunder the arch of Washington BridgeColumibia was trailing by a full twolengths. A quarter of a mile from thefinislh line the Blue and White wasstill fighting to catch up but it washopeless, and although the oarsmenstrained desperately to pick up theirstroke, the M. I. T. crew, with the joyof victory, swept onl, increasing its mar-gilln'over the tired boat load in therear and with the little coxswain beat-ing out a triumphant staccato with theknobs onl the rudder ropes.

The tinie for the nmile and a half dis-tance was 7.05 for the victorious crewand 7.18 for the beaten eight. Fourlengths slhowed between the two shellsas M. I. T. crossed the finish line.

The Syracuse Junior Varsity, in itsfirst competitive appearance of the sea-son, showed unexpected power in thetriangular race. With a clean, mniach-inc-like stroke, the orange blades car-ried the boat load of blue jerseyedoarsnmen out in front at the start andset up a pace that Columbia and M.I. T. were unalble to follow, the twosettling down to a duel for secondplace soon after the starting gun, -whileSvracuse went on to winl alone.

it. NVith nothing to lose, having losteverything they could this season, anda victory with which to end their sea-son to gain, the Bay State crews putall thev had in the two races. It mustbe said, in all justice to Columbia, how-ever, that the Blue and White oars-men were ordered to take the racesin their stride. Their stride just wasn'tlong enough.

Several times during the past weekCoach Miller has made changes in theVarsitv boat, each day almost, bring-ing out a rearrangement of the posi-tions in the shell. His efforts were notcentred on yesterday's races, but ontihe Poughkeepsie Regatta next monthand everv move was made towardbuilding up a crew that could give Co-lumlbia the best representation on theHudson, no matter what happened onlthe Harlenm.

The result might have been expected,but it wasn't and there was keen dis-appointment along the shore as firstollne and then another of Columbia'sshells took the wash of a rival boat.Apparenltly there was niore interestin the Junior Varsity event than ineither of the other two races. Thatwas because the Varsity and freshmanstruggles brought out only two starterseach, while the Jaovee battle was atriangular affair, with Syracuse, M. I.T. and Colunlbia furnishing the conl-Petition .

However, Columbia's last hope hungon the Varsity, which was the last ofthe crews to take the river, and thecrew received a cheer of encourage-nent as it paddled out on the water.But the cheer was soon stilled and af-ter the first half nlile it was evidentthat only a miracle or an accidentwould bring the Blue and White oars
