On Thursday , May 22, the Military D epar tm ent presented its 2!)th Annual Fie ld Day program at the football tield. After assembly, the entire Cadet Corps moved to the stands. This was followed by a performance of the crack dril l team, with cadet NCO D. Nice in charge.
The ROTC Band played martial music in the ir usual fine style, in cluding in t iieir selections a s t ir r ing rendi tion of the 7th Cavalry regimenta l song, “Gray Owen.”
Next, the Engineer Bridge detail moved out on the field. This detail consisted pr imar ily of advanced corps cadets enrolled in the E n gineer Summ er Camp Prep School,
Fifty-Two Inducted Into Phi Kappa Phi
The honora ry society Phi Kappa Phi held the ir in itiation program yesterday in the Ryder Club. The program consisted of the formal in i t ia tion of new members followed hy a dinner, and a ta lk by Dr. F ranc is Davis of the Physics Depar tment .
The officers for next year are: President, Mrs. Robinson; Vice Pres ident , Mr. Paul Kaczmarczik; Secretary , Mr. Henry Chen, and Treasurer , Mr. Irv ing Miller.

and was under the supervision of Enlisted Advisor 1st Lt. J.V. Stephens. The bridge detail pro ceded to construct, to the recorded music of “River Kwai,” a 30 foot bridge, with a “dead weight” of 14 tons.
Midway during the bridge construction, the bridge detail was suddenly attacked by a fierce aggressor force led by Cadet A. Lynch. The fearless engineers ignored the heavy small a rm s fire and continued the ir duties. A friendly in fan try force, under the direction of Cadet 1st Lt. N. Klinger, deployed to meet the at tack. Wi th machine guns and rifles blazing, in the shor t space of 20 minutes the friend ly forces overran the enemy position and captured the ent ire garrison. Nearly 5.000 rounds of .30 caliber (b lank) am mo’ was expended in th is t ime. The combined arms demonst ra tion was supervised by Captain P.E. Martin. and faultlessly narra ted by Cadet J. A. D’Angelo.
The Engineers, meanwhile, completed the ir task. In approximately one half hour, a bridge capable of support ing a 55 ton tank was erected. Since no tank was permitted on the grounds, a power lawnmower was run over the bridge while the engineers held the ir breath. The bridge, however, su r vived this supreme test.
Following the combined arms demonstra tion, one of the famous Nike rockets was displayed by a detachment from Bat te ry “A,” 176tli AAA Missile Bn. After the presenta-

lyrics and i)ook, made for an even ing without a dull moment. In between acts, Mi‘. R ichman gave a very liomey atmospliere to the whole show' by singing selections t h a t in troduced each scene, while accompanying himself on the gui ta r.
The plot is an old Amer ican saga. Tiie gold rush of the 1850’s Is on and wagon t ra ins continually form for tiie long tr ip across deserts and mountains . People from every walk of life join these trains , among tiiem, a family of ac tors tr ave ling West to find new audiences. The long journey and many dangei's b ring to l ight the true n a tu re of the cliaracters.
(Contained in tiie plot is the sad story of a m arr iage of convenience. Of course, the show ends happily for everyone. W i th the pioneers almost a t the ir goal, the cu r ta in closes with the whole cast rejoicing th a t the re a re only “200 miles to go, and two more r ivers to cross.”

Then the scope narrowed if>r and senior yeai's consisted a l most en t ire ly of KK subjects. 1 sam e basic )iriiicii)les were applied over and over in sjiecialty cou isfs by in s t ruc to r s who were not siiecialists.
F inal ly , senior interviews: my fears were confirmed. With the except ion of a few electronic firms, tiK! dem and s of indus try were p r im ar i ly foi' a well rounded engineer. My scholast ic background did not inc lude p repara t ion for eni])loyment with in sales eng ineer ing, eng ineer ing mai.agenient , or Ihe diversified electro-nieclianical fields.
These facts cer ta in ly point out the need for a more broadly based en g inee r ing program, supple mented with electives th a t tend to develo]) leadersh ip and self- expression. The hybrid Commerce and Knginee i ing course does not fill th is void. Colleges mus t pro vide the t r a ined ta len t ; indus t ry will develop the specialists.

Many changes have occurred in the pas t ff)ur years . T he c o u r t has a new roof. S tuden t Union has a dif ferent building, and the Dean of Men’s office has a new coa t of paint. These a re a few c ha ng es tha t I have noticed over the fo u r years, but th e re have also been slower, yet more rad ica l c h an ges in the people. The boys have p u t away the ir peg pan ts and DA h a i r cuts for th r e e -b u t ton coats and crew cuts.
The gir ls have disposed of “ 9 5 0 ” sockeroues and the i r ponyta ils . T he sen ior has become m a tu r e and sophist icated, yet I do no t feel he has fo rgo tten his f r iend l in ess (an d en th us ia sm ) from his d ink days.

GRADUATION PRESENTS? You may get a (Groan!) 6-cylinder European sports car or a (Yawn!) 6-month European vacation. These silly baubles just prove that parents don’t understand the college generation. What every senior really wants (C’mon now, admit i t !) is a generous supply of Luckies! Luckies, as everyone knows, are the best-tasting cigarettes on earth. They’re packed with rich, good-tasting tobacco, toasted to taste even better. So the senior who doesn’t receive ’em is bound to be a Sad Grad! Why let parents spoil commencement—it only happens (Sob!) once. Tell ’em to gift-wrap those Luckies right now!

Student support a t the football games left much to be desired but those in at tendance watched the team fight st rong opposition.
An abundance of dances including the SUB Freshmen dance, the Var sity Club dance and the Theta Chi’s dance filled the Great Court on Saturday nights. The annual IF Ball was the first formal of the year with the crowning of Connie Madl as IF Sw'eetheart.

Lef s Go ModemD o the students really have to w ait until the beginning o f M a y to obtain their
scholastic averages from the Office o f the Registrar? D o student organizations such
as honoraries have to wait until the third w eek in M a y to obtain final scholastic class
standings w hich are made available b y the Office o f the Registrar? D o seniors have
to w ait beyond the mid'point o f th e spring term to obtain their scholastic class stand'
ing and averages w hich are com puted by the Officc o f the Registrar? A t the
present time, the answers to these questions is yes.
It would seem logical that the scholastic grades for the winter term
were available to the Registrar’s Office at the beginning of the spring term.It is amazing that the averages and class standings are made available as
soon as they are, considering that desk calculators are utilized to compile
them.Has any consideration been given to the possibility o f com puting these scholastic
averages on the IBM equipm ent presently being leased by the Institute? If this
plan w ould speed-up the availability o f the class standings and averages, serious con
sideration should be given to this approach next year. Perhaps the cost involved
w ould be prohibitive — perhaps it w o u ld n ’t.
Senior students could well use their latest class standing and average
earlier in the spring term. Interviewers from industry are quite interested
in this latest information (especially this year). Also, student organizations
including honoraries must utilize the current averages and class standings
in order to properly select recipients for awards on Institute D ay. These
selections must be given to the Dean of M en’s Office so that Institute Day
Programs may be prepared and printed.
Let’s live modern, if it is practical. D o aw ay w ith the desk calculators and
process the work on the IB M clectrical calculator presently being leased by the
Institute.
W!ll You Be There?T h ere will be no admission charge — • this is no “w o r th y ” student organization
w h o is in dire need o f your financial support. A tten d an ce is not required — y o u ’ll
not have to return a signed card w h e n the program is concluded. In the past,
attendance w asn ’t “popular,” as cafeteria or court-time seemed to be more desirable
for m any o f the students. T h e even t here referred to is:
INSTITUTE DAY, TUESDAY, JUNE 3, 11:00 A.M.A new s article,on page one gives th e details o f the program.
This is the annual observance of outstanding achievement o f students
of Drexel Institute. Recognition is given not only to those w ho have done
well scholastically, but to those who have been outstanding in extra
curricular activities as well. Alumni, the Institute, student organizations, and many businesses bestow honors and awards upon selected students.Also, the Institute publishes the new D ean’s Lists at this time; they are included in the program for the day.
A tten d an ce at Institute D a y is a token o f respect for o n e’s fe l low c lassm ates .
Failure on the part o f th e student b od y to attend this program in a larger force in the
past was dow nright disgusting. Each year there is an opportunity to iniprove the
poor sh ow in g o f the past. Let’s fill th e auditorium on the morning o f June 3.
Recession Affects DrexelThe P h i l a d e l p l i i a area has been hard hit
bv the recent recession. As a consequence, the re will l)e fewer jobs offered to Uie giad- uat ing seniors of Drexel. The jo )S la will be available will offer salaries with about a 3-7r increase over last year. Because of the scarcity of .jobs, the employers w i l l be more selective. There will be th ree factors wbicli will determine the h i r ing of an applicant. The main emphasis will be placed upon the marks and class standing of the graduate . The value of co-op experience will be the second factor. This means th a t the cc-op job will have to follow very closely the prospective line of employment. The third factor will be liased upon how the professors evaluate the student.
Although many industries can not supply enough positions for graduates, there a ie more calls for finance majors, account ing majors, and civil service and government agencies than a year ago. The paper and chemical industries as well as adver tis ing coiiipanies are also busy. Probably the one industry tha t is stepping up its h ir ing ra te is the missile industry, because of the st rong demand by the government for this type of
production .
There a re also nu m e ro u s opening- f g radua tes who would re locate out of ■ but many p re fe r to s t ay in the Philad( I'ni'"' area. Some of these pos i tions includo trical eng inee r ing jobs, overseas witli e rn m en t agencies. Altl iough job oppo, |f ' j ' t ies a re scarce, r ep re se n ta t ive s of indnst • a re u nan im ous in th e feel ing tha t bus' condi tions w'ill im prove a f t e r the third' 'j a ,!*
Concerning the co-op jobs, almost ail perc lassm en have been placed. It has n t ye t been de te rm ined ju s t how many ar w i thou t jobs because the final statistics have not been computed . T he co-op deparfn,e„t feels sure th a t the s tu d e n t s who dr, not have jobs now will be placed soniolinie d u r in g the sum mer . T he job d i f f i c u l t y w i l l
not affect the n u m b e r enrolled in school tliis sum mer .
The fr eshm en will h av e to be more oi- less on th e i r own th i s s u m m e r because of the scarcity of s u m m er jobs. One of the reasons
for th is scarc ity is because h igh school studen ts will w ork for p rac t ica l ly nothing.
Channels and Chancels
Year-End Personal Inventoryby R ich a rd T hompson , 1‘r o t e s t a n t R e l i s io u s A d v iso r
W ith the end of the school yea r a t hand , it is n a tu ra l to look back over the pas t months and see w ha t we have learned . W e are forced to do th is on the occas ion of final exams. We may even stop long enough to take stock of how much f a r t h e r along w e a re in our field; how much m o re m a th or account ing Ave have picked up.But it is a much more ... ..difiicult ta sk to reflect on how much we have grown in respec t to u n de rs tand ing the world, ourselves and our faith.
T here is no prof to give us a final in these subjects. No one forces us to take fundam en ta l , personal ques t ions se r i ously. We e i ther do this on our own, or we don ’t do it a t all. And yet the te s t of a p e rson’s m a tu r i t y is w he th e r he reflects on th e meaning; of his life, as well as le a rn ing th e m eans , such as an engineer ing degree, by which to live.

The Perennial GripeDear S i r :
Our school cafeteria has foisted poor food and indifferent service upon the students th is year. Most of us will agree tha t the qual ity of the food is very inferior to most cheap public restaurants.

Not long ago, th e c a fe te r i a triumphantly announced t h a t pizza pie was to be s»hl. This pizza was adv er t is ed as having boen “tasted and approved by a s tuden t panel.” I find i t h a rd to believe th a t any Dr»xel s t u d e n t w ou ld s toop to endorse IT.

The question is “What is jazz?” The answer will depend upon the approach to jazz. In the past few articles, the question has been a n swered through an exam in at ion of the musical composit ion that-is-jazz. That is to say, jazz is beat, jazz is ascending syncopations, etc.

Jazz is be ing and jazz is becoming. Jazz a t t e m p ts to fill a lack, the lack of not l)eing— of not beinir em o t io n a l— a lack which is filled only by both be ing and beconiinu. That is to say , the emotion which jazz crea tes is apprec iated not fur i ts crescendic c l im a x es (as RectV- o v e n ’s work i s ) , but for its ex< !•• ing ques t of em ot io na l being.
The m e a n i n g and significance jazz is realized here and now in tin perpetual un fo ld ing of emotional experience. Jazz is spontaneous, it ii free, there are no authorities. .As such , jazz has been accused of beint' ind iscree t , but ind iscreet or nnt, jazz is a su bject ive truth.
