ELECTRICAL ENGIXEERLXG DEPARTMENT Till- ' , popularity oi the electrical course is well shown liy the fact that one- third of the entire student hody is enrolled in electrical engineering. In times past both civil and mechanical engineering have had their days of ex- treme popularity. l)ut today with an ever increasing number of uses being found for electricity, electrical engineering is drawing the largest number of students. The new million volt laboratorj- is symbolical of this interest and growth in electricity, and it is hoped that the laboratory will be the means of still further impro ement and advance in the science of electricity. The million volt trans- former used in the High ' oltage Laboratory dilTers from standard transformers in that it is made uj) of four 250,000 volt units connected in series by means of a special connection known as the the cascade connection. This connection was originated by Professor R. Sorensen of the Institute and its invention made possible the first 1,000.000 volt system ever designed. Without this Cascade con- nection of Professor Sorensen ' s it is jjractically inniossible to get over a million ' olts, due to dilhculties of insulation and construction. ork in voltages of a million and o er is still in its infancy and there are a great many experiments being carried on in the High Tenson Laboratory by mem- bers of the graduate school, faculty, and some undergradutes of the Juice course. Among the most interesting of these exjieriments are the ones on insula- tors, high tension acuum switches, flash-o er, and the construction of a million volt voltmeter. Most of ll;e undergraduate wi)rk is carried on in the normal oltage labor- atory, to which it was found necessary to make an addition this last year, due to the increased number of men registering in the electrical course. The thesis work for the Senior Electricals consists of the design of various types of electrical machinery. The student is reciuired to make a comjilete design of a generator, motor, transformer or some other ec|ually comjilex piece of machinery, and the design must be correct not only in the theory ajjplied but also must be practical in its construction. Naturally, work of this type gi cs the man a great deal of valuable ex])eriencc that will stand him in good stead in his later professional career. tiveitty tivcnly-oitc MECHANICAL EXGINEERLXG DEPARTMENT LIK1-; all otlicr phases of cngineeriiii;, mechanical engineering is becoming more comprehensive every year with the increased complexity of modern life. Consequently in their senior year the men taking up mechanical engineering are given the opportunity of performing many varied and interesting experiments and problems which bring out the essential features of the work in store for them and correlate all of the knowledge obtained in their first three years of college. One of the most interesting of these experiments is the testing of lubricating oils, in which the Kingman bearing machine is used to test the relative lubricating values of diiiferent oils at difTerert speeds and temperatures. That thi . tvpe of work is highly practical is shown by the fact that Professor Robert L. Daugherty of the Institute has just completed an eight months ' series of tests for the (loulds Manufacturing Comjiany of Seneca Falls. Xew ' ()rk. on the suliject of puni|)ing oil with centrifugal pumps. At the rei|uest of the (ioulds Conipan - Professor Daugherty conducted an iinestigation to determine the variation in the characteristics of a centrifugal pump in handling liquids of different viscosities and vapor pressures. In the tests which were conducted at the Union Oil Company ' s plant near Los Angeles, various liquids ranging in viscosity from water to cold residium or from the least viscous to the most viscous liquids which can be handled by this style of pump were tested. The primary object of the tests was to determine the head, cajiacity and efficiency of a centrifugal pum|) as a function of the viscosity of the lii|uid pumped and to also find the effect of the variation of the vacuum in each case. The results of these tests have been published b_ - the Goulds Company in pamphlet form and are a very important contribution to the science of me- chanical engineering in general and pump design in particular. In their last year, the Mechanicals are assigned special problems in machine design in place of a thesis or other phases of mechanical engineering. These problems are very conducive to originality and are likewise very instructive, as the student must make his design complete down to the most minute detail, and to do this he of course must be exceedingly familiar with the subject in hand. One of the problems chosen last year was the complete design of a five cylinder gas engine, while another problem was the design of a turbine driven locomotive. For this latter problem the student collected data from several big companies in the east and numerous data that had been published from experiments carried on in England and Norway. ' Hiese are but two of the many interesting thesis problems chosen by the seniors, problems that do much to gi e the embryo engineer a taste of what he may expect to meet w lu ii he leaves college and enters the world of industry. tifcnty-tzi ' O tiL ' i ' iity-threc CIVIL EXGINEERIXG DEPARTMENT To those men who have a desire to 1)uild things, the Civil Engineering course offers a tremendously interesting field of work, for no matter whether it be buildings, bridges, roads or dams, all these works come under the general head of Civil Engineering. For the student who doesn ' t know just exactly what his bent is, the civil course, next to a general course, offers the broadest and most representative group of subjects for his study. In the junior year, the men are given an insight into the type of work required of a sanitary engineer, a highway engineer and a railroad engineer. The senior work, while principally design, gives also some idea of the problems encountered in the water supply for cities, and irrigation i)rojects. The thesis work of the graduating Civils is especially interesting, for the thesis cover a wide range of topics, some of original design and some in the nature of extensive research into a subject of general and vital interest. For in.stance, last year several men did research work on the possibility of using the Colorado River as a water sup]jly for the city of Los Angeles, while others designed ware- houses. ele ators, chimneys and sim.ilar projects of great practical alue. The fact that civil engineering is a ' ery much alive profession is brought home to the men at Tech by the fact that the new Linda ' ista bridge over the Arroyo, built by the city of Pasadena, was designed by Professor R. R. Martel of the Institute. The bridge is not only of interest from a pure technical .standpoint, but is also of interest because it is a very beautiful structure. In the design, beauty was the first requisite and Mr. Martel was called upon to draw up specifi- cations for a bridge that would be sound technically and at the same time embody the particular lines as set down by the artists who were supjjosed to be authorities on the aesthetic properties of such structures. . ' Vnnther reason for the interest of Tech men in the bridge is that se eral old grads have been employed in its construction. The bridge has a central si)an of two hundred and forty feet, with a rise of forty feet and is one of the largest concrete spans in ilu- world. . n allowance was made for earthquake shocks in the design of the expansion joints so that the bridge has one inch of play laterally but will resist any further sideward motion. Since it was designed by a Tech man, and since Tech men ha e worked on its construction, the bridge can well be said to be a fitting reminder to all Ci ils of what they may some day be able to do. t-a ' cnty-jiiur vara . Iwriity-fiT PHYSICS DEPARTMENT IN speaking of the Department of Physics, one thinks first of the wonderful Iniilding which houses this branch of the Institute ' s work. The Norman Bridge Laboratory of Physics is one of the most complete and best equipped labora- tories in the country, and aiYords an unusual opportunity to those men engaged in research within its precints. The third unit is now completed, and provides num- erous class rooms besides the usual research rooms. Naturally in physics, as in all courses, the student must follow a rather definitely laid out curriculum, but it is the aim of the faculty to so far as ])Ossible surround the undergraduate with an atmosphere of research after the comple- tion of his second year, and to allow him to follow his own inclinations as far as possible in the matter of choosing research subjects. The course known as Physics and Engineering is growing exceedingly popular and an ever increasing number of men are signing up for the combination of pure science and applied engineering subjects, some laying more stress on one side and some on the other. Most of the men working on research problems are doing their work in con- junction with, and under the direct guidance of some prominent ])hysicist, and thus are getting not only a knowledge of the subject in hand and a chance to work out their own ideas, but also an invaluable training in the methods of attack, by observing the processes by which the older and more experienced men handle their [iroblems. This past year there have been several very interesting research problems investigated by undergraduates. One of the most im])c)rtant of these was carried on by William Dent, working on the theory and construction of a sodium x ' oltmeter. Both Emerson Bailey and Joy ' an den . ' Kkkcr did consider- able researcli in the study of flourescence in the extreme ultra-violet, while (ieorge Clapp worked with Wladimir Zaikowsky on the subject of internal combustion engines, studying the whys and wherefores of their eccentricities. W liile it is impossible to give a very complete course in research work to the undergraduate, it is the plan of those designing the curriculum to give the student sufficient work along these lines to enable him to see just what the field is to be after graduation and to find out whether or not he desires to cast his lot with those searching for new discoveries in pure science or whether he wishes to adopt as his life work the more technical side known as engineering. twcnlv-six twoily-seven EXGIXEERIXG AND ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT THE Engineering and Ecunomics Department differs from other departments not only in the nature of the work done but in its aims and resuhs obtained. Other departments aim at teaching pure or apphed sciences, thus fitting men primarily for research and development work, or for construction and operation. The aim of the Economics Department is to de ' elop men fit for administrative work. These men are trained in engineering; they have learned to ap])ly scientific methods to problems ; and to think clearly and accurately. The administration of industries requires an alertness and ability to keep up with new methods, for it is a science in itself. This quality is obtained by the atmosphere of research and experiment surrounding the student. Actual observation and criticism of operat- ing industries forms an imjjortant part of the work since it allows the student to apply his classroom knowledge and at the same time is a valualile exercise to develop his jiersonal abilities. T ' or the man whose abilities are not of a strictly engineering type, this de- I)artment will provide training enabling him to become an executive, preferably in an industrial or constructive concern. His acquaintance with the technical side of industry coupled with business training will provide the most efficient equiiimcnt with which to work. That liusiness executives with technical train- ing often hold more responsible jobs with higher salaries than the specialized engineer, is .shown by the organization of large light and power, construction, manufacturing and .similar concerns. Both types of men are required in the efficient carrying on of our complex economic system. The former type is, if anything, rarer, and should have careful training. It is believed that the basis of ' his training .should be science and engineering, instead of wholly commerce as is the case in most courses elsewhere. To Professor Laing belongs most of the credit for the development of this de|iartmcnt. He has created something that is not only of great value to all engineers but is of itself, very interesting and apjireciated by all. The ever in- ceasing number of men taking uj) this phase of engineering is the best proof possible of the real value of the training offered in the business side of engineer- ing. tiiciity-cight t-ci ' ciily-inne CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT AT the end of 1922, work was started on preparation of insulin, a sub- stance little known at that time. A great deal of work was made pos- sible by a grant about a year and a half ago of $10,000 by the Carnegie Foundation. ' ork progressed here under Dr. J. J. .- bel and Dr. Ceiling of Johns Ho[)kins University. However, at the present time no work on the pre- paration of insulin is done, and all researches by H. W. Estill are carried out on sam[jies obtained from an eastern firm making it commercially. Other work of great i)ractical value has been done by Dr. Noyes and Robert Dalton. Dr. Noyes started work at M. I. T. in 1902 on a scheme of systematic qualitative analysis that would provide for the detection of all metallic elements. Con- siderable work was done at that time, and arious students have worked on it intermittently u]) to 1921, when work v -as again taken up in earnest. The work is now practically completed and Dr. Noyes hopes to publish the system this summer. The value of the new system is that it provides especially for the detection of the rarer metallic elements. AV ' ork of considerable theoretical interest is being done on the rate of de- composition of ozone by O. R. W ' ulf, the rate of decomposition of N O ' by William Ure and active hydrogen by L. Merle Kirkpatrick. The results of these investigations w-ill play an important i)art in building up the theory of decomposition. Other graduate research includes the study of ionization po- tentials by George Glockler, high temperature equilibrium by C. H. Prescott. free energy of cyanogen by A. K. . ' tearn, activation of hydrogen by collision of the second kind by A. C. C. Mitchell, and crystal structures by Huggins, Paul- ing. Hendricks and lunmett. In llic inidcrgraduate world many problems are being attacked and among these miglit be mentioned the investigation of metasulfo-toluic anhydride and the possibility of derixing new indicator dyes from it. thirty THE MILITARY DEPARTMENT WIIKX the college year oiiened the military battalion greeted a new Com- mandant. Captain Kramer was sent to Panama and Major Lewis M. Adams took over his work here. Major Adams saw service in France, and came here from Galveston, Texas, where he had been District Engineer for four years. The recent war experience of the officers attached here leads realism and interest to the class room exercises, and especially to the construction of the trenches dug in the rear of the barracks. These trenches were revetted and sand bagged, wire was ])laced in front, and two machine gun pits connected by covered passages were built so that a very war-like appearance w.as present- ed. In addition to the class work, it has been the custom for the battalion to spend a certain number of drill jjeriods on some engineering project. This year a suspension Ijridge was built, using the regular jiontoon equipment. The bridge is 90 feet long and 10 feet wide and has easily su|)ported the weight of a fully loaded automobile driven across it. In additiun to the regular three companies of the battalion, an . utomatic ' ea|)on Platoon ])roved a success last year, and the idea was taken u[) again at the beginning of the second term when a platoon of two squads was organ- ized. These squads become thoroughly familiar with the operation of the auto- matic rifle and machine gun, and with the machine gun drill and the work has proved very interesting to those taking it. Another jihase of the military course which is always of interest to those taking it, is the course in demolitions. Last year the battalion got a taste of real demolition work when they blew up the Linda ' ista pjridge for the City of Pasadena. IIowe er, as there are no more bridges near here that need blowing up, the commandant was forced to look for something else to put real- ism into the demolition classes this vear. thirty- two x:- V rm 1 jCxM J  r vJB 1 ' m- . . . w V, .i U. - • : i«j4 -- - tliiiiv-tlircc GRADUATE SCHOOL WHEN the authorities of the California Institute of Technology secured Dr. A. A. Noyes as director of the Gates Chemical Laboratory and Dr. R. A. Millikan as director of the newly finished Norman Bridge Lab- oratory of Physics, they not only greatly increased the prestige of the regular un- dergraduate school, but at the same time made certain that the graduate school of the Institute would prosper and take its place among the leading centers of re- search in this country. Since that time the faculty of the Institute has been steadily increasing in numbers and rank of its men, until now California Tech is truly one of the greatest scientific colleges in America. Not only has there been a great increase in the number of men connected with the teaching staflf, but more imjjortant still has been the steady increase in the size of the research staff. The research men come not only from all i)arts of the L nited States, but they are literally coming from the four corners of the globe. In reading over the roster of the physicists and chemists, occupied w ' ith research work at the Institute we find several men from Russia, a man from Poland, one from India, another from England, representatives from N orway, Holland and many other countries at various parts of the world. Dr. Sophus Epstein has come to the Institute from Holland, to proceed with his work concerning the quantum theory, on which he is a very eminent authority. Dr. .Stanislaw Loria comes to the college from Poland and is doing extensive research work in the investigation of the electronic structure of matter. Norway ' s contribution to the California Tech research staff is Dr. Vilhelm Bjerknes, one of the world ' s greatest geoph ' sicists, and fonnerly professor of geophysics at the Geophysical Institute at Rergen, Norway. Perhaps the most celebrated of eastern physicists is Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman of the L ' ni- versitv of Calcutta, who has been doing research work at the Institute this past year. In chemistry the roster shows an equally brilliant list of men. Dr. Richard Chace Tolman, jirofessor of Physical Chemistry and Mathematical Physics, is noted ail over the United States for his original scientific work. The man that knows more about insulin than perhaps any other man in the country is Dr. Tohn T- Abel, professor of Pharmocology at the Johns Hojjkins University and out here on a year ' s leave of absence to work on Insulin. Such is the personnel of the graduate school and it is easily seen why Tech is becoming nationally known as one of the best scientific colleges in the L ' nited States. thirty-four TTlNRKlIS AN HrSKIKK MlI.LIKAN Macarthur Barrktt iliirly-si.v fc c r ' 1 - • • ll ( i 1 thirty-seven THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES Arthur H.

Combs To develop men with an exceptional engineering knowledge, an unequalled scientific training and a broad cultural background — these are the ideals of the California Institute of Technology ' ; it is a policy little dreamed of by the founders of Throop College of years gone by, but one which is Iteing realized in a most gratifying way. The present college has grown from the old Throop University founded thirty- four years ago by Amos G. Throop. In 1891, this Chicago business man with an ambition to contribute his share toward the education of young men and women, began an educational movement which was destined to become one of the world ' s foremost. Throop University became Throop Polytechnic Institute one year later with the addition of a kindergarten and elementary grades. Charles A. Keyes became preside nt and the Institute attained its largest enrollment of 620. The buildings may be seen at the present time near Chestnut and Fair Oaks Avenues in Pasa- dena. In 1908 the far-visioned Board of Trustees devised a plan for the develop- ment of a scientific institution which should supply a much needed place in the field of education. The present campus had been donated and the new institution, the Throop College of Technology, a non-co-educational institution came into existence. The elementary grades were discontinued and the enrollment dropped to 31 by the application of new standards. Determined to make it second to none, the officials and especially Dr. George E. Hale and Arthur H. Fleming, two very broad- visioned men, began the develojnnent of this minute college. Dr. Hale expressed his ideals of the insti- tution as follows : In creating such a school we must provide the best of instruc- tion and the most perfect equipment that modern engineering offers. How- ever, in laying stress upon the practical aspects of the problem w e must not forget that the greatest engineer is not the man who is trained merely to under- stand machines and to apply formulas, but the man who, while knowing these tilings has not failed to develop his breadth of ' iew and the highest qualities of his imagination. Xo great creative achievement in art. in literature or in science has ever been the work of a man devoid of the imaginative faculty. During the war period the entire college was devoted to the aid of the nation — it became a training school of war work and all its men went into the active service. In 1920 a new step was taken and the Throop College of Technology was named the California Institute of Technology. The new step was in reorganizing the college and exjianding it into a great research institution — a realization of the ideals of the Institute ' s fovmders. iiV v- i t ' Old Throoi ' Academy The (jates Chemical Laboratory was built by C ' . Gates and his brother P. G. Gates to supply the needs of that department, while Dr. Xorman Bridge pro idin« the first wing of the Xorman Bridge Laboratory of I ' hysics. These two buildings, with Throop Hall then comjirised the entire college. It was at this timt. ' that the Institute was very fortunate in securing the services of Dr. Arthur A. Xo_ es, one of America ' s leading chemists, as director of the Gates Laboratory of Chemistry and at the same time Dr. Robert A. Millikan of Chicago University, who had been spending part time here, moved permanently to Pasadena to become the executive head of the Xorman P ridge Laboratory. The gaining of these two men. who came because they bclie ed that here was a place which should become a research center because of wonderful climatic conditions, the i)roximity of the Mount Wilson Observatory and the interest shown by the Carnegie Corporation and the executi es of the college, was a great boon for the Institute. Many gifts and endowments have made possible the extensi e building plan which is now being carried on. The gifts include the Library and the second unit of the Xorman Bridge Laboratory presented by Dr. Xorman Bridge ; the Aeronautics Laboratory presented by Mr. Tod Ford; the High Tension Electrical Laboratory erected and eciuipjied by the Southern California I ' -dison Company; a wing of the Auditorium which was erected in 1922; the Student L ' nion Hall presented by Mr. and Mrs. K. R. Itlacker. forty Other Iniiklings iilnnned by the late Ilertram Goodhue, one of America ' s greatest architects, will l)e Imilt as rajiidly as possible. A steam heatini, plant is now being completed. All of the buildings are of Spanish design and are built not only for the purpose of being the best adapted to modern usage but to be beautiful edifices as well. There are numerous advantages in the Institute ' s limitation of its enrollment to 500. The classes, being small, have given opportunity for personal contact of the faculty and students and a stressing of cultural values which few colleges possess. This contact serves also to develop a creative attitude in the students, since the faculty is composed chiefly of men engaged in active research. All these conditions ha e given the institution a unique opportunity to make an important contribution to American education as well as to American scientific develop- ment. Many of the greatest scientists from all parts of the world have at one time or another been engaged in work at the Institute on problems of the utmost importance. The faculty has been increased with the addition of many verv able men who have won the highest honors afl: orded to scientific men through their contributions to human knowledge. Dr. Millikan in 1923, not only won the Nobel prize in physics, but the Edison Aledal of the .American Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Hughes Medal of the Royal Society of Great Britain. Thus it is seen that the college has grov -n to a position of ijredominance in a very few years. Several hundred applicants are turned aw ' ay each year and recently the policy of entrance examinations has been introduced to aid in the selection of the new men. But the history of the California Institute of Technology- has just begun and the future should be even brighter than the past.

Noll Chairman Glen Schlegel forly-four i i i SENIOR CLASS HISTORY UXLIKE most classes in the history of the college the class of ' 25 has never been downtrodden. Entering as green freshmen they immediately distinguished themselves by winning the Pole Rush, due to the heroism of Anias Sasso and the leadership of Preston Collins, newly appointed Freshman Chairman. As a result they were the guests of honor at a dance gi -en at the Hotel Ambassador by the Sophomore Class. However the class was not lulled to sleep by conceit due to their early successes and continued to lead and strive toward higher goals. The Frosh football team suffered the usual number of defeats but managed to develop such arsity material as Mike Brunner, Stu Seymour and Ray Alderman, who have each played four years of college football. The Frosh debating team enjoyed unusual success as did also track and baseball. The officers for the class during the last two terms were : Preston Collins, President ; Gerald Mc- Farlaii, ' ice President; Anias Sasso, Secretary; Henry Freeman, Board of Control : Fred Peterson, Yell Leader. The most notable characteristic of the class ' 25 during its Sophomore year was its strenuous oppression of the Freshman class. In fact this class performed its duty as Sophomores so well that the faculty found it neces- sary to interfere in behalf of the pea-greeners, and all .Sophomores have been relatively calm ever since. The class won the pole-rush for the second succes- sive time, a feat which has been seldom done. Its next triumph was in the form of a Freshman class picture, which turned out to be a splashing success. The class produced much varsity material for football, basketball, track and baseball, and won the inter-class football chamjiionship, and the inter-class track meet, due to the noble efforts of Keech and Hoffman. The dance, given at the Annandale Country Club proved to be one of most delightful affairs of the College year. The officers for the year were:Fred Peterson, President; Ed- ward Kinsey, ' ' ice President ; Marcus Hoffman, Secretary ; M. li. Salsbury and Gerald McFarlan, Board of Control. When a class enters upon its third year in college its members become leaders in student body affairs rather than in purely class functions and the class as a unit is less active. Five members of the class of ' 25 won their Honor Keys, the highest student body honor, during their Junior Year. The class also formed the neucleus for almost every athletic team, and led in forensics as well. Officers for the year of ' 23- ' 24 were Mike Brunner, President ; Robie T. W ' atkins, Vice President ; Robert Fulwider, Secretary ; and Stirling Beed, Ath- letic Manager; with Albert J. Ferkel. M. E. Salsbury and Alfred Newton on the Board of Control. The class did its ample share in sponsoring the Junior- Senior Prom, held at the Mar land Hotel. Entering the Senior year with such a record, what more needs to be said? As Seniors the class of twenty five concerned itself with the advancement of the interest of the College, rather than with petty class matters. Mike Brunner, as President of the Student Body enjoyed a successful term of office to his own .satisfaction as well as to that of the class. Officers for the Senior year were: Alfred A. Xewton, President; Oscar .S. Larabee, ' ice President; Paul forty-five XoU, Secretar)- ; Edward Cornelison, Treasurer: Carl Beed, Athletic Manager; with M. E. Salsburv. Al Ferkel and Robert Fulwider, on the Board of Control. This closes the career of the Class of ' 25. as much indi idually as they have as a unit. May the members accomplish HONOR KEY WIXXER.

The units attending were not confined to the Engineer Corps, but represented the .Artillen, ' , Cavalry and Infantrj- forces as well. Among the engineering units Tech filled its quota, and the Tech men were well to the front in all actixities as usual. On the rifle range the Tech men distinguished themselves imrticularly, a large percentage of the E.xpert awards going to Tech representati es, while three of the Tech men qualified among the best ten, thus earning a triji with the team to the national meet at Camp Perry, Ohio. ' ] he growing popularity of the cam]i is attested by the increasing number of men who go each year, especially from the two lower classes. The camp offers a privilege and experience that every man should take advantage of at least once in his college career, and one that he will never forget nor regret. Y CABIXET RETREAT As a last bit of carefree vacationing the members of the Y Cabinet retired to Switzer ' s Camp for a two day outing in the week preceding the opening of college. This furnished a splendid opportunity to become acquainted with Charles Schwieso, the new general secretary of the Tech Y. The annual retreat was .greatly enjoyed by the 14 fellows who were included in the party and the working organization for the current year was greatly strengthened by the splendid op- portunitv afforded to discuss new ideas and to become better ac(|uainted with one another. DORM I)AXC1-:S The Dormitory Club, as is its usual custom, started the college social when on October 11, it held an informal dance in its spacious living room. The decora- tions were tastefully arranged with orange and white streamers, giving a very pleasing appearance. Enchanting music was dispensed by Frank W ' iegand ' s Or- chestra. . second Dorm dance was held on .• i)ril 11, in the Dugout. This was a hard time aft ' air and many amusing costumes were present. Novelty, tag and ]irize dances added to the interest and a more enjoyable evening could not lia e been spent. The Dormitory Club upheld its enviable reputation as hosts in these two affairs, both of which were more than successful. citjhiv FROSH-SOPH RODEO UNTIL recent years, tlie annual struggle for supremacy between the two lower classes took the form of a pole rush, in which the freshmen attempted to remove a certain portion of a canvas flag, securely fixed to a greased pole and jealously guarded by the sophomores. This affair, however, threatened to become too Itrutal as well as often too shocking for public gaze and it was replaced in tlie fall of 1923 by a tie-up, which still gave all the elements of an organized fight, with little chance for serious injury to the participants. The new contest consisted in choosing two teams from members of the opposing classes and furnishing each team with strips of canvas with whcih they endeavored to tie up as many as possible of the opposing team, the struggle being held in an eighty-foot square laid out on the turf in Tournament Park. This year the contest was further altered to include, in addition to the tie-up, two tugs of war, the class winning a majority of the three e e its to be declared the winner. On the afternoon of October fourtenth, a challenge having been duly issued and accepted, the two classes met in mortal combat. The inexperience and lack of organization of the freshmen put them at a great disadvantage in the tie-up and it was not infrequent to see a protesting freshman being tied up by his own team- mates. Before the half hour was up, the sophomores had tied and dipped in a mud bath ail of their sixty-five opponents, while only ten of their own number had so suffered. hen the contest was ended, the two teams were indeed a sight to behold and they were evidently not in the kindliest of spirits, for the tug of war, which was held immediately afterwards, was marked by such frequent iolations of the rules that a decision was impossible and the remaining events were postponed until the following week. It was then that the freshmen, still stinging under the treatment the) had received the week before, staged a remarkable come-back and easily won the first tug of war from the class of twenty-se en. In fact, it required but forty seconds for the youngsters to i ull the rope away from the surprised sophomores. The Rodeo honors being thus evened, the remaining tug was quite a dift ' erent story, as neither team was desirous of losing the deciding event. It was only during the last half-minute of the allotted time that the freshmen, heaving in perfect unison, succeeded in carrying the marker about two feet beyond the center line. As a result of their victory, the class of twenty-eight has the distinction of being the third freshmen class to win the annual soiihomore-freshman contest since the tradition was inaugurated in 1914. Best of all, ])erhaps, they became the recipients of a delightful dance in Culbertson Hall on the e ening of Xo ember eighth, at which the sophomores were the hosts. eighty-one ;f ' i ' ' ' :-- ' % t ■ ms i I ig i v-Zii ' i) T FRESH-MAX T PARTY IIE class of ' 2S, l ' (jllo ving a tradition established nearly ten years before, started out on the morning of October twenty-fifth to gi e the big T on the mountain-side its annual scouring. Armed with picks, shovels and hoes, the frosh left the Alt. Wilson toll gate at se en o ' clock for their dusty pilgrimage up the mountain, arriving at the scene of action about an hour a.id a half later. With a zeal that would have brought them high honors in the class-room, the freshmen showed that they had evidently had previous experience with pick and shovel, for in a little more than an hour the task was complete and the big letter once more stood out clean-cut and square, a fitting monument to the spirit of Tech. The class corner-stone was placed in one of the lower corners of the T, the cement lieing mixed and poured in the form with appropriate ceremony. Just as the laborers were gathering together their tools and surveying with satisfaction the results of their work, the Y car arrived, loaded with doughnuts and api ' les, and all other thoughts were put aside for the time being. eighty-tlirce OXY RALLY On the evening of November 10. over four hundred Tech men and friends gathered in the Quad before Throop Hall for the annual Oxy rally. A huge stack of wood which had been gathered by the Freshman was lighted. In the glow cast by the burning jiile yells and songs were led and never before had old Throop Hall heard such lusty cheers as tlio e which went u]) then for the fighting Beavers. Under the direction of the Sophomore class a mimic Oxy-Tech fonthall game progressed. So much Tiger meat was taken by the I ' eaxers that it was dnubtful if the kitty would survive. Two former football captains. Dick Hambrook, ' 21, and Rernie ICvans. ' 2i. Professor Sorenson and two jazz artists all did tb.eir bit tn knock jiep skyward. Thk BuM-iKi; .Singing that old fighting song; Oh. if 1 had a daughter I ' d dress her ui) in green, And send her o er to Oxy to coach the football team. And if I had a son, sir, he ' d go to Tech. ' tis true. And he ' d yell, to Hell with ( ) y. ' like bis dadd - used tn do. the Tech men ]iulled pajamas o er their clcitbes and marcheil through the town, waking u|) sleepy townspeople with ells and song. Competition was added in the business district by the twittering twenty, Oxy rooters who were on the scene and by the blatting of hundreds of horns on machines stalled by the pajama- rino. After serenading the various theaters and the jail, the pajama clad figures disbanded, resoKing to make, on the morrow, the bigge-t fight for victory ever knciw n. eiglily-four TECH STAFF THF:ATER PARTIES The staff of The Cahforiiia Tech enjoyed the hospitality of two of Pasa- dena ' s foremost theaters, the Raymond and the Community Playhouse, on Octo- ber 2S: and January 20, respectively. At the Raymond, Cheating Cheaters was presented liefore the journalists. This jilay is a very clever crook story of the highest order and contains some very vigorous and surprising action. If Everybody Had a Window in His House Like This. was the play which the staff ' enjoyed at the Community Playhouse. Especial interest was lent the plav because of the fact that our own Mr. Loofbourrow and his wife were in the cast. The Tech staff enjoyed the two evenings exceedingly and are indebted to the managers of the two theatres for the enjoyable evenings. ARMISTICE DAY PARADE Tech men played no small ]iart in the celebration of Armistice Day in Pasa- dena this )ear. The R. O. T. C. was represented by a large company led by Captain Moore with Lieutenants Newton and Stewart acting as color guards. Cal Tech ' s Rand, 100 ]ier cent strong, was another im|iortant part, making a great impression with the townspeople with its su]ierior playi g. The lire of march led to Library Park where the patriotic ceremonies were held. Here the faculty was represented by Dr. Millikan who gave an address on A Better America. and Captain Perig(.)rd who was chairman of the program committee. The P.and appeared in white uniforms at the Bowl in the afternoon and participated in a fancy drill which was received with cheers and applause from the audience. TAU BETA PI DANCES On December 3 and A|iril 4, the members of Tau Beta Pi held their semi- annual dances in Culbertson Hall. At the first affair, Thurman Peterson ' s orchestra played, and at the second, Bob Evan ' s. About seventy-five couples were present at each dance and expres- sions of satisfaction indicated that they were very successful. At both dances the Tau Beta Pi initiates ])ut on stunts for the amusement of those present and coxered themsehes with glory in so doing, eighty -five JUNIOR-SENIOR DAX ' CE On Saturday evening, December 6, Culbertson Hall was the scene of a very delightful affair when the two ujiper classes held a small, informal dance. The hall was lighted with colored globes and spotlights added to the soft and sombre effect. To the enchanting melodies played by the Blue Velvet Syncopaters. The coui)les iripjied lightly over the fionr or sat out the dances in the cosy balcony. One of the features of the evening was the clever dances given by Miss Marion Edwards and Miss Aileen Rainbolt. The whole affair proved to be very successful and more of its kind were promised by the upper-classmen. w FOOTB. LL BANQUET ITH the usual pep and fun, the Eleventh Annual Football Banquet was held on December 12, at Schuster ' s Cafe in Pasadena. About two hundred and fiftv students, facultv members and alumni attended. Professor Sorenson was in his usual capacity as toastmaster and official j )ke purve}ar. handing out red hot quips which bettered his enviable reputalion in that line. Professor Sorenson made some very interesting remarks in the course of the evening regarding the sport of football. He defined a football fool for those present as one who never plays football, plays too much, plays to win. plays little and talks much or ])la) ' S none and talks much. In regard to the W ' bittier affair, he said that it would be Lest to keep still for the present. Coach .Stanton was the first speaker of the evening and emphasized once more the necessity of holding the right thought in regard to the games. He declared that the proper mental attitude would have gixen us the sustained driving offense which was the only thing lacking in this year ' s team. The coach also declared that our teams were hampered b}- the rigid scholastic standards here and suggested as a remedy all-year-round practice in all sports. eighty-six Mr. H. ' . Wheaton, formerly of Yale and Coach Stanton ' s ideal coach, presented a cup which is to be known as the Wheaton Trophy. Each year this cup will have engraved u]ion it the name of that Tech football man who has been selected by his teammates as deserving that honor. In the selection of that man, the points to be considered are scholarship, moral influence and sportsmanship. This cup typifies Mr. W ' heaton ' s attitude towards sports — playing them not mereh ' to win. but playing fairly and st|uarely for the lo e of the game. Mr. Da id Blankenhorn. who last year gave a large endowment for Tech athletics, told of the value of athletics in later life and how they develop person- ality and the ability to meet men. All of the varsity men made speeches and cracked their best jokes. Byron Hill sjioke for the second team. Clarence Haserot for the scrubs and Howard Dodge for the frosh. .A.s an e idence of their ajipre- ciation for his good work, frosh coach Evans was presented with a gold football by the youngster ' s team. Following the speeches, sweaters were presented to thirteen varsity players. These men were Captain Raymond .Alderman, Captain-elect Jack Baker, Frank Foster, Stuart Seymour, Michael Brunner, Seymour Larabee. Stuart Johnson, Layton Stanton, Leroy Xewcomb, Robert Heilbron, Edward Kinsey, George Moore and Frank Xickell, FRESHMAN DAXCE On the evening of December twentieth, the first big dance of the year was given to the college by the class of twenty-eight. Owing to failure to find a suit- able place for the affair in Pasadena, the Deans consented to let it be held out of town and the Hotel Alexandria in Los xAngeles was finally selected as the scene of the festivities, With the blessed feeling of relief that always attends the close of the term examinations and with the holiday spirit already in the air, the student body entered whole-heartedly into the occasion and previous attendance records were j)ut to shame. An imposing reception line greeted the guests and included the patrons and patronesses of the dance. Dr. and Mrs. Robert .A. Millikan, Dean and Mrs. Fred- eric W. Hinrichs. Dean John McArthur. Dr. Arthur A. Noyes and Prof, and Mrs. Harrv ' an Buskirk. besides many other members of the faculty and their wives. The ballroom was artistically decorated with flowers and streamers and be- fore the evening ended all manner of favors were dispersed among the dancers. FuUv three hundred couples danced away the fleeting hours to strains of delight- ful music and it was only when the orchestra struck up Home .Sweet Home that the happy throng consented to disband. Thus i)assed into history another of Tech ' s enjoyable social events. cii hly-scven THE HOT RI ' KT AFTER five successful years, the Hot Rivet has attained to nearly the dignity of a tradition at Tech. and each year the ai)pearance of the scarlet razz sheet is kjoked forward to with great interest. Edited and published by the new members of the Press Club as part of their initiation, this product of red hot journalism is the one big opportunity given for correcting, or attempting to correct, the faults of students and faculty alike liy merciless publicity. Standing for public censorship of public nuisances, it was undoubtedly the means of effecting several much reeded reforms about the campus, not the least of which was the improvement of service in the bookstore. ThKM as was RESI ' ONSUiLK cigbty-cighl A. S. C. E. CAP.IX PARTY The studfut cliai ter of the A. S. C. E. tuok advantage of the week-end January 17. to ins])ect several dam sites and to enjoy a cabin party in the San Gabriel Canyon. The outing began on Friday afternoon when fourteen of the men drove to the Y. M. C. A. cabin about three miles from the lower dam site. The evening was spent around the large open fireplace. In the morning the party was met by representatives of the Pasadena Water Department who showed a number of maps and plans to the group and explained the method of locating a dam site that would meet their requirements. The ] arty then proceeded to inspect the various sites, climbing over the side-hills, entering tunnels and ex- amining the diamond drill in operaton. In all, four locatons were isited. and the party all felt that they had had an enjoyable week-end. R.SITY CLUB DANCE On the e ening of January 24, about one hundred and fifty couples gathered for the annual arsity Club Dance upon the spacious floors of the Hotel Vista del Arroyo and danced to the entrancing strains of Frank W ' eigand ' s orchestra. The setting of the dance was very unique. If one tired of the formal type of floor decorated with pink and red carnations, one needs must step but a few feet away to the darkened, romantic atmosphere of a .Spanish patio ballroom an d enjoy himself in a ditterent setting. For the first time in the memory of the oldest Tech collegians was there enough floor space for one to strut his stuff, and enough delicious punch to satisfy the most violent thirst — and most of all such delightful music. Surely, the ' arsity Club dance was the best appointed dance of the year in every way. The ' arsity Club with the ]iroceeds from this dance created a fund to be known as the Injured PMayers I- und, whereby men who are injured while out for the arious ' arsity and Frosh teams will receixe material assistance in caring for bills arising from medical attention. BROAD OAKS DORM-TECH DORM DANCES A joint Broad Oaks Dormitory-Tech Dormitory dance was held in the living room of the campus dormitory on January 30. The dance was featured by several most unique numbers including a progress dance (geometrical progression, r equals 2), and a balloon dance. In tlie latter each one nf the young ladies had a balloon tied to one ankle and endeavored to dance without ])ermitting it to be broken. Two terpsichorean artists from the Tech dormitfiry were prevailed ui)on to show their stuff in an e.xhibition dance. Tango, trick turns and flea- hopping in three dimensions called forth several encores. .Another Inter-Dorm affair was held in the Board Oaks Dormitory on April 17. . bout thirty Tech Dormenians journeyed forth to enjoy a ery delightful e ening dancing with the fair maidens of Broad Oaks. cighty-niiic OXY GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB WHAT seems to be destined to become an annual event was the appearance of the Occidental Girls ' Glee Club before the student body assembly on Friday, February 20. I ' ecause of the importance of obtaining a front row seat, many professors were influenced to dismiss their cl asses earlier than usual. After a wild scramble for the best seats the students listened impatiently to the recitation on student body affairs by the A. S. B. president, and when he was finally driven off the stajje, the front seats moved forward several feet and the curtain lifted. A erv pleasing program was given by the sweet young co-eds from Oxy, and included The Dirty Engineers, which drew much laughter from the audience. High powered military field glasses and opera glasses were in great demand and many interesting expressions were seen clearer when these came into action. It is hoped that the visit of the Oxy Girls ' Glee Club may become an annual or e en semi-annual one. The E.xtkrt.mxers I ' l KAl ' l ' A l)h:i.TA DANCE The annual dance of the Tech chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, national forensic society, was held in Gulbertson Hall on bebruary 14. To the entrancing strains of an excellent orchestra, about si.xty couples danced through a most enjoyable evening. It being X ' alentine ' s day, the .St. ' alentine idea was carried out in the punch, decorations and programs. The latter were very iniiciue. being heart shajied. niiicly TECH NIGHT THE annual Tech Xite at the Raymond on February 25, surpassed all previous Tech Nites and unco -ered a hotbed of dormant talent (?) pos- sessed by our Engineers. The first e ent was syncopation a la jazz to the nth jiresented by Fanchon and Rube ' oltf. Rube seemed to know the Weak points of our prominent students and he didn ' t hesitate to advertise them. This was followed by 300 i)Ounds of jokesmith who took u| the |)anning of our foremost where Rulie left off and carried it on until the roars of laughter threatened to shake the plaster off the walls. He was followed by a whistler who could also shake a mean triple action ankle. Of course this was all preparatory to the main event of the evening — the chorus from Cal Tech — which tripped gaily upon the scene with all the grace and abandon of voung elephants. To describe them adequately would require Excerpts from the Chorus a book, for Al Newton ' s imagination had nm riot on the costumes. When one saw that curls, those cioffure, them crowning glory, one had isions of bob- tailed horses galloping away from Al ' s shears. The pedal extremities of the young chorines were wrapped up in that special variety of violin cases cham- pioned by the army. Between the crowning glory and the dancing slippers were two pieces of ribbein wrapjied counter clockwise around each chorine where they would do the most good. The movements were made at the command of an army whistle offstage. It is reported that Mack Sennett and Flo Ziegfi eld engaged in a fist fight in the lobby immediately after this event to see which of them should make the oifer to Al Xewton for his chorus. Little Bobby .Stein was on hand with his Scandina ian pipe organ on which he rendered se eral numbers as only he can. Between acts the glee club quar- iiiiwtv-one tet sang Just Awearying for You and Close Harmony without any casual- ties. A newsreel of Prof. Merrill ' s pet glider Tal was an interesting jiart of the i)icture jirogram which concluded with Constance Talmadge in Learning to Lo e — a feature of educational interest to rugged engineers. The program ended with dancing on the stage in which a large share of the audience {)articii)ated. The music was furnished by the Blue ' elvet .Synco- pators. A Tech Xite of great success, long to be remembered. .SOPHOMORE DAXCK, MARCH 7 .Saturda} ' , March 7, was the date and nine-thirty was the time, when one of the best dances of the year was given in the ballroom of the F riday Morning Club b ' the .Sophomore Class. The programs for the dance were very unique, being long and narrow with a beaver and the class numeral embossed upon the red leather co er. itty quotations within the program called for much comment by the fair co-eds present. The music, furnished by Ray West ' s .Alexandria Orchestra, and the punch were both delightful in the extreme. The hall was magnilicent in its own decorations and lent a di. tinctixe social atmos]ihere to the affair. Knowing the reputation of the class of twenty-seven in social afifairs, every- one from the college who could possibly come, attended. Even the weather was made to order by this original class and sitting out dances in tlu- cool, shadowy lialconies became c|uite a pastime. IXTERER.XT DAXCE The Huntington Hotel ballroom was taken over on the e ening of March 21, by the four Tech social fraternities, Pi .Mijha Tau. the Gnome Chib. the Pharos and the Sigmas who acted as hosts at an inter-fraternity ball to a num- ber of invited guests. A no cll - in the decorations was a bimch of gorgeous red tulip which re[)osed in a basket of ice at one end of the hall. Due to the engineering ability of the decorators, the basket did not melt or spill o er during the evening liut remained in perfect condition until after midnight. l ' a ()rs of small anity cases engraved with the crests of the four fraternities were presented to tl.e ladies and leather card cases to the men. The music for the dancing was furnished by Ray West ' s . le. andria Orchestra and proved to be of the arietv which kept one ' s feet mo ing at all times. Occasional strolls in the beautiful gardens of the Huntington and isits to the high tower to view the surrounding country lent enchantment to the eve- ning and helped make it one which is never to be forgotten by those who at- tended. Iliitit -tli. ' fl EXHIBIT DAY It lias become a custom at Tech to set aside two days each year on which the faculty and students hold open house to any and all who wish to visit the Institution and be shown something of its work and eciuipment. This year, the Annual Exhibit opened at noon on Friday, April third, and it was not long before the campus became a scene of colorful activity, as the usually masculine landscape was enlivened by the presence of maiy of the fair sex, whose interest in the college was in many cases cjuite personal. The seniors had charge of registering the visitors at the main door of Throop Hall, while the sophomores filled their time honored position as guides, showing the expectant groups of visitors through the various departments, begin- ning with those in Throop Hall and proceeding from thence to the various other buildings on the campus. S]iecial demonstrations in each department were de- signed to show the strangers something of the work that is being carried on at Tech and the facilities and apparatus with which th.e Institute is so well ecjuipped. The Gates Chemistry Laboratory provided a large number of interesting experiments and synthetic punch was served to all who had the courage to par- take. The research exhibits in the Norman Bridge Laboratory of Physics also attracted a great deal of interest and the huge million olt transformer in the High ' oltage Laboratory furnished a superior brand of electrical fireworks for the benefit of the visitors. The Exhibit continued throughout Friday afterncoi and late into the eve- ning and. in spite of threatening skies and frequent downpours of rain, the guides were kept busy continuously. A feature of the afternoon ' s program was a parade by the R. O. T. C. battalion, which showed the ' isitors the character of the work being done bv the Military Department at the Institution. .At six-thirty Friday evening, the alumni of Caltech gathered in the Dugout for their annual Exhibit Day Banquet and many familiar faces were in evidence as the old grads came back to greet each other again and talk over old times together. A lecture on X-rays, which was gi en by Professor Richtnijer. national president of Sigma Xi. on Friday evening, was attended by a considerable num- ber of the visitors and at eight-fifteen, a large audience filled Culbertson Hall to enjoy a delightful program by the Glee Club and an address by Capt. Paul Perigord on The California Institute of Technology. The Exhibit oi)ened again on Saturday morning and reached its climax on Saturday afternoon in a baseball game at Tournament Park between Caltech and the Santa Barbara Teacher ' s College. Thus ended another successful Exhibit Day at Tech, and one which served to again imjiress the people of Southern California with the important place which the California Institute of Technology is filling in the .Southland. ninctx-thrce FACl ' LTY-STUDi: T .MIXER For the first lime since the days of the great oak tree when stiuients and faculty memhers ate, studied and gossiped together under its shade was a real Faculty-Student Mixer held. This treat occurred on Friday evening, April 10, in the Dugout. The evening was taken up hy music, speeches, wrestling and boxing matches. A spirit of friendliness pervaded the atmosphere and all mythical hatchets be- tween faculty and student v -ere buried deeply. The V helped to put this good time across and the large number that attended were inde ' jted to it for the pleasant evening. Bob Evars and his orchestra furnished the music for the occasion. THE PI KAPPA DELTA PROMXXIAL CONVEXTION The California Gamma Chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, located at Caltech, was privileged to be the first host of a provincial convention of the chapters located in California. On Saturday, April IE representatives from Southern Branch, Occidental College. Redlands University and the College of the Pacific joined with the local members in staging a very successful get-together in Culbertson Hall. As forensic accomplishments are the foundation stones upon which the national fraternity is founded a regular carnival of debates, oratorical and extem- poraneous speaking contests are usually the order of the day when a group of the Pi Kappa Deltians get together and the local convention was thoroughly charac- teristic in this respect. The morning and afternoon sessions were given over to forensic encounters of varying natures while the business meeting proper was held in the evening, following a very enjoyable banquet at Shuster ' s Dining Room. One of the most enjoyable features of the convention from the standpoint of the hosts was the fact that Pi Kappa Delta is a co-eduactional organization and that a large number of charming delegates from the various chapters were on hand to make losing debates a pleasure. ninety- fiz ' C GLEE CLUB AXD RAXD COXCERT On the evening of April 24. the combined forces of the Glee Club and Rand ga e a concert in the High Scliool Auditorium. Besides the Tech organizations, several other attractions were presented. Luboviski. a master violi ' .ist and rated second only tn Fritz Kriesler, played several compositiors : Benjamin, the Fire Man. presented his spectacular Fire Dance. Sweeting ( ' 28). mystitieJ the aud- ience with his bag of tricks, and McFeeters ])layed several piano selections. All who attended the concert and lieard Luboviski were indeel charmed with the (|ualit - i)f his music. Lubo iski is one of the younger artists who are doing so much to enrich the present day tield of music and the Associated Student Body was exceeding fortunate in securing his services for the evening. The Glee Club and Band were -.n h in top form and made the best prese na- tions in their history. Many new runibers given liy each organization were enjoyed by aH. I Oor iA Club SrAo«£Rj - THE Peopled ' Chojle Eua r E President OF PoRMflHIA ON THt fREl Peanut Ticket MORE Peanuts LE55 Hash DORMITOKN SMOKER Late in the ear the Dormitory Club ga e a ery good time to the members of the student body and to the faculty in the way of a smoker. Since nominations for student body officers had just been made, interest was heightened by the attempts of candidates to increase their ])opularity by handing ov.t free (Dorm) cigars to voters. The usual superior brand of Dormitory punch was served with cookies as refreshments. Speeches were made by leading members of the student bodv and facultv. itiiiciv-six Y SKATTXG PARTY ( )n uiif mcirning of the tliird term man) ' Tech men reported to their classes wearing huge pillows behind. Though this style was somewhat bewildering to isitors it was easily explained in that the Y. M. C. A. had held a skating ]iarty the night before at the Alhambra rink for members of the student body. Xo casualties occurred during the evening because the skaters soon learned to light naturally, and light they did when the components of the forces acting upon them did not equal zero. Freshmen obtained ad ance lessons in mechanics when they discovered what the jiroduct of M ' could do to one ' s social status when their feet became tangled. Punch to quench the thirsts of the skaters and otherwise was served by the Y. At midnight the m.embers of the party adjourned to hear their bed- time stories. EMANCIPATION DAY On the day of the last week of the college year the Freshmen of Twenty- eight went through the ceremony delivering them from the burden of wearing the green. This day is looked forward to by the frosh all year, for at this time all distinguishing marks of inferiority are discarded and the right of liberty and equality with other men of the college assumed. A huge fire was built in the quad and as the freshmen marched liy in file, green visors and buttons from the beanies were thrown upon it with loud cheers. Then in a body all rules laid down by tradition, restricting the class, were broken. In through the front door of Throop Hall and u]) the north stairs they marched. Though near fights were precipitated, there were no general riots as marked the first Emancipation Day when the Class of Twenty-four estab- lished the tradition. After the demonstration was over, peace again descended upon Throop Hall. DITCH DAY That the lower classes might become accustomed to the absence of a re- straining hand, the lordly Seniors slipped away one bright morning to enjoy a well-earned vacation at a nearby resort (name upon reqi;est). Those who entered Throop Hall that morning noticed an elaborate pro- clamation in front of the student body office, telling the lower classes that by virtue of their superior knowledge the members of the Senior class had a right to declare a holiday for their sole use with a yea or ray from no one. Thus was the traditional Ditch Day carried out. ninety-seven YELL LEADERS t cii.i:. j. . Motors-Bridges-Be vtl-Gears, C-I-T-Engineers (Slow). Motors- Bridges-Be vcl-(ieiirs, C-I-T-Engineers (Faster).

WiNGFIELD COLE.MAX GUXNINO iiiiicly-ciglit ATHLETICS ATHLETIC COUNCIL HlXRICHS Heilbro.v ORENSON SCHLECEL Clapp Graham Adams Brunner A T the ery foundation of all Tech athletics is found the athletic council. This council, a group of men from the faculty and student body, form- ulates and executes all the athletic policies of the Institute. Members of this ery important council are Coach Stanton, Prof. .Sorensen, Prof. Clapi), Dean Hinrichs, the A. S. B. president, the A. S. B. athletic man- ager, a specially appointed member of the student body, and Coach Musselman acting as secretary. Prof. Sorenren in his role of chairman plays a great part in the policy shaping. All matters of athletic interest are first thrashed out by the council before an official stamp of appro al or ote is giyen. When the stamp is giyen their yerdict is turred oyer to Doctor MiHikan for the final Institute approyal. This last step is, hovyever, of no great hindrance since the council ' s yerdict has in all cases stood. The council also makes u] all the schedules of games for the Engineer teams except those of conference character and .sends representatives to the regular conference meetings to take care of the conference standing of Tech. As athletics forge to the front at Tech the council will l)ecome exeti more prominent than ever. Tech men, however, are feeling little fear that the privi- leges of the council will be abused since it has at all times shown itself a real representative body. iiiiictv-ninc COACH STANTON This year was Coach Stanton ' s fourth one at Caltech. Since he first came liere there lias been a marked increase in athletic interest at the college. He is a man for whom the members of his teams will fight to the last. By instilling his wonderful ])ersonality into the men in his personal contacts with them on the field, he has built up teams at Tech in the last four years far superior to any the college ever had before. Fox Stanton ' s specialties are football and track. In three years he developed a grid team that placed at the head of the conference. This year the final tally was not so favorable, but with well towards a hundred men out for spring practice, he will develo]) a team that will be hard to conquer next year. His system of ])laying and his ability to develo]) raw men are hardly equaled in the west. His the(}ry in track is that athletes are developed, not born. He has shown the proof of this in many instances, notably in that of Glenn Graham, who started vaulting for the first time when a frosh here. It is through Stanton ' s work that Tech now holds three conference records. There is not a true Tech man who does not sincerely rcs|)ect Coach Stan- ton. E ery year he spends at Tech will find him more popular and the possessor of as manv new friends as there are new men at the college. owe hundred StAMnx Brunner M rSSLEMAN Cunningham ATHLETIC STAFF Evans Matson Of course the most prominent man on the athletic staff is Coach Stanton. He has been Ijecoming more and more popular by demonstrating that Tech men can become athletes e en though they sjiend more than the usual amount of time for study. His work in football and track has given Tech a name in Southern California athletics which she never enjoyed before. The other two major sports are coached by Graduate Manager Musselman. He has been gradually developing a basketball team that will soon place near the lop of the percentage column. The baseball teams he has been turning out ha e always run good races for first conference honors. Bernie Evans, captain of the 1923 varsity football squad at Tech, returned this year to instruct the frosh in gridiron tactics. He has helped to bring out s(jme material that will be extremely useful to the varsity in the future. Mike Brunner was elected captain of this year ' s basketball squad, but due to an injured hand, he was unable to play. He gave his energy and ability towards teaching the frosh the art of shooting baskets. Lieutenant Gullatt was cht)sen to coach the frosh baseball men. His ex- perience makes him a valuable man for moulding the frosh aspirants into varsity material. Harry Cunningham has bee n teaching the men the rough arts of boxing and wrestling. Joe Matson ' s ability as a merman qualified him to instruct the swimming squad. our liuiidrcd one THE ATHLETIC YEAR Athletes do not come to Tech; they have to be made after they get there. For that reason it is unusual for a Beaver team to lead the other conference colleges. However, the men are out to chalk up as many wins as possible, and to ])lay a clean, hard-fought game whether it is won or lost. This year ' s freshman class was unusual in that it contained a large number of men capable of entering into sports who were really interested in doing so. Comparatively few of them had previous experience, but that is not always as important as the willingness to get into the game. ' hen Fox Stanton gets his hold on the majority of them, he will turn them into real athletes. By giving a limited amount of scholastic credit to upperclassmen for physical education, a much greater number of them turned out for the sports in season than wciuld otherwise have been the ca.se. If the whole college is interested in sports, the teams will be better each year, for they will be picked from a larger number of men. and they will work harder knowing that their work is appreciated. Tech did not show up so well in football this year as had been expected, but the majority of the games lost were by small margins. Tech made 30 points against the other conference colleges while but 34 were scored against her. The W ' hittier and Oxy games were lo.st by 7-6 scores, the Redlands game by a 13-12 tally, while Pomona managed to take a 7-0 game. The lone win in the season was a 6-0 one over the Branch. With the interest that is being shown in .Spring practice, Tech should have one of the strongest teams in the cimference soon after the season opens next Fall. In basketball a full scheclule was not ])layed. The team lost to Pomona and Oxy but managed tn win twice from Redlands. Several sophomores showed that they were quite ca])able of holding varsity berths. The fmsh turnout slmuld develop into varsity material in a short time. Pomona and (Jxy each handed ' I ' ech a defeat in track, but a tie with the Branch and a decisive victory over Redlands left Tech in the center ])osition. The relay team did very well, taking .second ])lace at the conference meet. Gra- ham raised the conference pole vault record to 12 feet 8 inches. The trosh lel most of the opponents in the dual meets but were sadly worsted at the frosh conference meet. The tennis team defeated ( ) y but fell to the Uranch. Pomona and Red- lands. The usual interest in swimming was not displayed, several lettermen being unable to be out. r.a eball started off with a ninth inning win from Pomona and a decisive victory over Redlands. The last game played before this was written was with Oxy. . ' Mthough the score was decidedly unfavorable, the men left the field with the determination to place second in the conference this .season. With the large turnouts all this year, and a large number of experienced men back, Tech will ]iut in strong bids for conference honors next year. (K r hundred Itco x:- : ?- RAYMOXD ALDERMAN ( Cajjlain ) Captain Horsey Alderman was Tech ' s most consistent ground gainer of the year. He could always be de- ])ended upon for first downs when a yard or two was needed. Playing the full- hack position, he was also an artist at hacking up the line of scrimmage on the defense, and was often the man who stopped the opposing back-field man carrying the ball. His three years on the ' arsity were well climaxed this year. JACK BAKER (Captain Elect) Jack was captain of the Freshman team when he was a Freshman, and now he has earned this honor on next year ' s X ' arsity. His running, line plunging and [lassing have been features of the games for two years. He played right half- liack this year but will probably fill the fulll)ack ])osilion next year. Tech ex- pects a hit from Jack and his team next vear. (!;; • luindrcd four .!? ei ..r r j-- f « ' t f • « • T  , , ' ' X ' The Varsity Sijuad NOW that the year is over who, among you. will deny that it is |)leasant to look back over Tech ' s football year. There is no sport that is loved as much, played as much or has as large a following as football. Football is trul ' a maker of men. In its hard fought, keen, sharp competitions it de- velops in a man that which is an essential to his character. His brain becomes quick, he sees what has to be done and he does it with a vigor and determination that stops at no obstacle. These qualities are needed in every successful man and if they are learned in sports they will unconsciously be api)lied. h those who possess them, in everyday affiairs. So it is with no misgivings that the scores of the season of 1924 are brought to light for no matter how the result was in figures it is known that our men got something out of the games that will stand them in good stead for the rest of their days. Once more our hats are off to Coach Stanton. If he did nothing else he developed a team that was willing and eager to fight to the verv last tor Tech and her honor. But he did more than that. He developed and put on the field a team that deserves more credit than it ever got. One has no right to call a team jh or because it loses all but one conference game. Every small item must be considered and weighed. This has been done and Tech has not been found wanting, save one department. Let ' s start with the offense and go down the list. Coach Stanton developed a team that had real power in its drives. one Iiundrcd five This was demonstrated time and again. When a yard was needed for first down or a touchdown it was made. That was all the rooters saw but, behind that drive was the unconquorable spirit, We WILL make it. the spirit that is necessary to a football team and also, the spirit which every successful man must have. Our defense was something that any Tech man can feel proud of. Many times the lioys held for two or three downs on our one yard line when to have let a man through would have meant utter defeat. That is the kind of determination which is needed not only by a football team but by every man who expects to succeed in this world. Caltech had a passing system which was on a par with any team in the conference and due to the modern idea of scout- ing Coach Stanton was in a ])osition to originate a defense against other yjasses which seldom failed to work. So. taken as a whole Caltech was as good as any team she met in the latter part of the season except for the one dei)artment which cost us the loss of our games to other conference teams. That branch referred to is the drop kicking. Tech possessed no one who could be depended ujwn to place the ball between the goal posts when the one jioint meant a tie game. The lettermen of this year ' s varsity totaled 13. They included — Cai)tain Alderman. Ca])tain-elect Baker. Foster. Seymour. Brunner. Larabee. Johnson. Stanton. Newcomb. Heilbron, Kinsev, Moore and Xickell. U. S. C. GAME ith but a little over a week ' s |)ractice the Beavers o])ened their football season by going up against the much talked of U. .S. C. eleven. After the first three minutes of play the outcome of the game was never in doubt. Outweighed from twenty to thirty ]Kiunds to the man the Tech forward line never gave up hope that they might, before the game ended, stop the Trojan charge. Thev battled hard, but in vain. The Trojan charge was rot to be denied. When it is said that the team did not work very well together it must be remembered that they had only practiced for a little over a week. Xo apology is made for the score of 78-6 for without a doubt the most capable team won. Nevertheless Tech showed up well in two dei)artments of the game. The first was the forward pass- ing which was our liiggest ground gainer. The combination of Foster and Baker executed some passing puzzles that the Trojan defense failed to stoj). The sec- ond field in which the I ' eavers showed up well was in following the ball. As well as gathering up some of U. S. C ' s fumbles it was this persistent dogging of the ball that resulted in Tech ' s lone score. During the fourth (juarter the Trojans let loose of the ball long enough for Morrison to tra el seventy yards in exchange for six points. This game did not bring to light the relati e alue of either team in their re- spective conferences as there was too little comjietition for the Trojans combined with a very short period of practice. .Score Iiy Ouiirters 12 3 4 Total Tech 6 U.

This game was by far a better test of the Beaver ' s strength than the preceeding game played with U. S. C. It will be remembered that last year the navy men had a good team and beat Tech by 7-0. Th.e Engineers had a go id team at that time also, but it was weakenel by the alisence of Fred Groat and Holly JMoyse wh.o were out with minor injuries. This year it was very much the same way. Layton Stanton and Jack Baker were out of the game with minor injuries. However, Stew Johnson and Sellers very abl_ stepped into the other boys ' shoes. Both teams made yardage, but were not able to do it consistently. Tech ' s one big moment came in the second quarter. The Navy fumbled and gave tiie Beavers the ball on the Nax ' v ' s 30 yard line. Some pretty running and a few line bucks by . ellers and Johnson gave Tech her first score. .Sellers con ' erted. The only other score of the game came shortly after the kick-oft following Tech ' s goal. The Beavers intercepted a pass and followed it up with some more good open field running. As a result Tech made her second and last score of the dav. Failing to convert the final score stood 13-0. Although the golis were never really dangerous they were within striking distance once, but did not make the best of it for they were penalized fifteen yards for holding and could not regain their loss.

W ' hittier triumphed over the Engineers by one point ; score. 7-6 The first half saw the Beaxers jump into the lead by six points due to the consistent ]ilugging of eleven engineers and the prctt ' playing of Baker and oiw hundred scveti Stanton. A sixty yard run by Stanton followed by a fifteen yard gain by I ' aker gaye Tech the touchdown. If tlie touchdown had be converted the game would have been a different story. . 11 through the first half Tech held the Poets, not easily, but efticiently. The second half witnessed the gradual wearing down of the lighter team be- fore a heavy battering ram. Once Tech held on the one yard line for three downs and kicked out of immediate danger, but the ball was run back too far before W ' hittier was stopped. This time when the Poets reached the one yard line they kejit going and scored their only touchdown. The score shows that they con- verted. Time was short and Tech tried mightly to overcome the one point lead, but to no avail. The heavier team had won. The game was a little too hard for Tccli as is shown liv the loss of one man for the entire season throug ' n injuries and two others for over a week. . - core b}- Quarters Whittier O ' 7 7 Tech ' ) 6 POMONA GAME I ' omona. in Tech ' s second conference game of the season, handed the Pieavers a 7-0 defeat in one of the hardest fought, cleanest games of the season. Pomona had the slightly better team, so Pomona won. The first lialf got away to a poor start with both teams ner ous and fumbling badly. The play, till near die end of the half, see-sawed back and forth in the middle of the field. Neither team made downs consistently, and punting was the order of the day. Late in the first half a Pomona man intercepted a Tech pass which i)ut the Sagehens on Tech ' s thirty-five yard line. In came .Merritt from the side lines although a broken rib he had sustained was but partially healed. A pass, Clark to Merritt. put the ball on the Beavers five yard line wlien quite conv eniently the half ended. The score still stood 0-0. The second half was full of Tech fight and the passing combination of Clark-Merritt was held to a stand still. Not so her line bucks and end runs as it was only a matter of a little time before Tech ' s goal was crossed and Pomona had seven ])oints. our hunilrrd ci(ilit REDLAXDS GAME One of the most unpleasant ujisets in tl:e football season was encountered when Redlands gave the Beavers a 13-12 beating. Blame it onto anything you like : over-confidence ; two much concentration on Oxy and not enought on Red- lands or the mysterious failure of our offensive plays to gain the ground they should have. Maybe it was because we had no drop kicker or possibly it was on account of the field. All are excuses but none are alibies because no alibies are being offered. Tech was beaten and no amount of explaining can change the situation. Redlands converted her first touchdown but was not allowed to try for the extra point on her second goal as the referee took offense at one of the Red- lands players. This tells the story of how Tech lost two out of three conference games bv only ore point. one liundi-cd nine OXY GAME As the sun dipped low in the western horizon Armistice Dav it witnessed the final aHant but fruitless effort of the California Tech Beavers to overcome the one point lead of the Occidental Tigers which finally ended. 7-6. The Beavers played well and lost the game thru no other cause than the lack of a drop kicker. This statement is true about all Tech ' s conference games so far exclusive of Pomona ' s win. It was a delicious fact that ten minutes after the first whistle Oxy was on the short end of a 6-0 score. If the Beavers could have only held. These eleven fighting engineers have the satisfaction of knowing that Oxy was made to work for her lone tally and worked hard. Inasmuch as this was true Oxy earned her touchdown and full credit is gi en the Tigers for playing a fine hard game. Tech ' s lead was Occidental ' s incenti e and they proved themselves big enough for the occasion when by converting their touchdown they added the point that won the game. Twice the Tigers made a flashy offensi e. The first netted them their one touchdown while the second offensive put them on Tech ' s three yard line with 4 tries to make a touchdown. Here Tech decided to show their power. They dug in and the cry was They Shall Not Score and their cry was true, for Oxy did not score. On the fourth down Oxy still had one yard to go. Five thousand rooters held their breaths while the Tiger quarter called off signals. Suddenly the ball sped to the Oxy back ; then, fumble ! Oxy recovered but she had lost her only chance to make the game a complete victory for it ended shortly after with the sun just disai)[iearing from view and a shadow creeping up the score board which read Occidental 7 — Cal-Tech it. Thk Kick that Won roR O.w one liundycd ten GRIZZLY GAME In the game during which Captain Alderman took hut httle part and one which was full of thrills the Beavers liroke into the win column by defeating the Branch by a lone touchdown, ' )-0. It seems to make no difterence who the I ' eavers lose to, it is just impossible to let the Bears win. Apparently it goes against the grain and causes the Teddies much displeasure but their slogan this year was Dam the Beavers . Quite appropriate, but it did not work. The Beavers are pretty good dam builders themsehes and likewise particularly destructive to anything that stands in their way. The Beavers had the edge all through the first half and it was in this pieriod that the spirited efforts of Heilliron, Ftister. P.aker and .Stanton netted the only touchdown of the game. The con ert failed, as usual, and there were manv in the rooting sections who wondered it tins game would he a reiietuii n (it the W ' hittier and Oxy game in as much as the score was concerned. Tech backers were indeed becoming sujjerstitious but they just couldn ' t credit the idea of a win by the Plranch. The high light of the second half was in the fourth quarter when the Bears twice drove Tech to the shadow of her goal posts. It was merely a repetition of what happened in the Oxy game but what a prett) ' sight it was. There is nothing so stirring or thrilling as to witness a team struggle and hold an op- posing team in the shadow of their own goal posts. That is what Tech did. Xot once but twice. Eight of the men who fought so gamely were giving their last little bit for the athletic reputation of their Alma Mater and it was a fitting climax that they should hold — and win. LOYOLA GAME Loyola pulled the surprise of the season when she held Tech to 21 imints and gathered 13 herself. It was not intended that the first string should play the whole game so most of the substitutes got a chance to show what they could do, and get some experience for next year. Xone of them fell down on the job which added much to Coach Stanton ' s [(leasure. I ' lw Ituiulrcd clcien MICHAEL BRUNNER Mike successfully lin- ished his third jear at end this season. He was the lightest man on the team and yet was one of the best due to his over abundance of Tech Fight. He was field captain in the Branch game and certainly kept up the team spirit. Tech is liroud of Mike and his l)ia}ing. FRAXK FO.STKR Stupe has ])layed on the X ' arsity for three years. He filled the quarterback position this season in a commendable manner, his work on the defensive being especially notewortln ' . He develoiied into a very good punter, his fifty and sixty yard kicks being consistent and giving Tech the advantage of many yards. Ilis absence next year will cer- tainly be felt. r ? one liundrcd lii ' clve LEROY NEWCOMB Xewkie played a ven- t;ood game at right end this season. He made his letter last year, too. being his first out for foot- ball. He was a fast and heady player, making his hundred and sixty pounds of fight a ery valuable asset to the arsity. As he graduates he will be greatly missed next year. STUART SEYMOUR Stew ' ' was shifted to tackle this ve:ir after play- ing two seasons of Varsity guard. He filled his new position with the same energy and fight that char- acterized his former play- ing at guard. He is big and powerful and certainly util- izes these endowments well. He played every minute of every conference game and will be greatly missed in next year ' s lineu|). one hundred thirteen SEYMOUR LARABEE Larry played left guard and was the fastest man on the line. He was always the first man down the field under Stupe ' s punts, usually stopping the opponent ' s safety man in his tracks. His defensive play- ing kept many yards from heing made over the central part of Tech ' s line. Xext year his fight will be missed as he graduates with the Class of ' 25. GEORGE : IOORE George i)layed guard this year in a most commendable manner. He was a transfer last season and, being ineligible for the Varsity, spent the season on the Scrubs, but was rewarded this year and certainly earned his recognition. He has a super quantity of grit and spirit from which we expect great things on next vear ' s team. tine hundred fourli-t J EDW ARD KIXSKY Ed filled the position of fulHiack two years ago hut this season admirably did the work at right guard. He fought hard every minute he played and stopped many line bucks. His happy nature helped the moral of the team. He was our heaviest lineman and will look good on next vear ' s team. ROBERT HEILBRON Bob played a wonder- ful game at light tackle this year. He was fight personified and certainly gave his opponents a lot to worry about. It is fine to see the way he ai)plies him- self in a game. With Bob and Big Bob Stein back next year we should have the two best tackles in the conference. one liundrcd fifteen FRANK XICKELL Xick passed the ball from center this year in a worthwhile fashion. His defensive work was also of a good character, few trains being made over his ection of the line. He is 4 I :nly a .Sophomore, and so has two good years left at Tech to further prove his worth. .t«l STU. RT JOHXSOX .Stu played halfback this season and put all he had into the game. He was very fast and shifty, making possible the longest i)lay of the year by chasing (jreen of U. S. C. for eighty yards and overcoming a ten yard lead in this dis- tance, tackling him on Tech ' s goal line. He is a deadly tackier and w ill surcl - aid Tech next vear. Iiiindrcd sixteen LAYTOX STAXTOX Layt is a true son of The Fox as lie showed by his great fight and abihty. He played left halfback this year, also calling the signals part of the time. He can pass accurately with either hand. He is a demon at carrying the ball, aver- aging the longest gains of any man on the team and carrying the ball frequently. He should give a lot to Tech in his re- maining two years. JOSEPH MATSOX Joe successfully filled the position of football manager. He was on duty as long as the team was practicing, caring for their needs, arranging for transporta- tion and doing the many odd jobs that come to a manager. He was popular with the men and so made an excellent man- ager. one hundred sei ' entcen SECOND VARSITY i DiLi.oN H.wwAKu Mksf.rve Minklkr Henderson Templin Peterson Bryant Ball Morrison Hill Iones Helms Smith Cofeland TME men of the Second Varsity Team are heard of more or less as substi- tutes for first Varsity. They are the men who occasionally get put into a game to relieve some first team man. They work hard, get little glory, yet most of them get their chance to make good. However there are those who work- hard all year and never get a chance to play in a regular game. Next year they will get their chance unless the man happens to be a senior. If he is a senior It means that he goes from Tech with little or no thanks, for the second varsity award is really a very small thing, considering the sacrifice of this senior. There are seniors who have jilayed on the second varsity team for three years and ha e seen hut little of the varsity conference games. These are the ones who are really true Tech men. They have the right attitude and the real Tech spirit — fight and sacrifice for the rejjutation of the college. These are the men who will be forgotten but who should not be. It seems that human nature will not take into, account the fact that a man has tried. It is results that are asked for and demanded. How artifical, how insincere, yet how true. If there were only some way that the college could be made to feel for these men. They pass on unheralded and unsung. . ' Purely in some year to come, and may it not be far (iff. a plan will be arranged by which these men will get their just reward. one Ituiidrcd ciqhtccn There are also those members of the second varsity team who are under- classmen. These men may in time play into the same role as the seniors al- ready mentioned, but at least the underclassmen still have one or two years more in which to try to perfect themsehes into first varsity material. Many do develop into good all around players and are rewarded both in publicity and in their own minds. Of these men only one thing can be said : watch them for they are comers. The men w:ho won second team letters this year were — Hill, Helms, West- lund, Hayward, Henderson, Jones, Bryant, R. Copeland, Peterson, Upward. Morrison, J. Smith, Minkler, Meserv e, Jackson, Dillon, Templin, Hess, Heilbron, and Ball. ■ LA VERNE GAME Against La ' erne, the only game the second varsity had scheduled this ear. Tech was unfortunate enough to lose by the score of 3o-12. It must be rememliered that the second ' arsity seldom plays together as a team, except to run signals. All their actual scrimmaging is done with the first team and there is hardly ever more than two second team men in at the same time. There is a big difference between running signals together and playing another team. The first is practice with no opposition while the second is just like a game. What is most important, the second team has not learned each other ' s actions as well as they have the actions of the first team. In the first half La ' erne went right to work and toward the end of the first quarter scored a touchdown. In the second quarter they scored first a field goal, then a touchdown. The score stood 16-0. This seemed to bring Tech to life and after some good running and rather sensational dives and slides by both Baker and Johnson, coupled with a forward pass to Smith, Tech chalked up si.x points. In the third quarter, La ' erne seemed determined not to let Tech score while they managed to put over another touchdown and add the extra point. Toward the end of the fourth quarter things became interesting when Moore fell on a La erne fumble. A few more plays and Tech ' s score read 12. In a final effort to nose out the visitors the Beavers opened up with forward passes only to have one intercepted and La ' erne add seven more points to their total. But the game was not over for with about a minute to play La Verne scored again with passes and long runs. The final score read: La Verne 36; Tech 12. .Score by Ouarters 12 3 4 Total La ' erne 6 10 7 13 36 Tech 6 6 12 one liundrt ' d nineteen one hundred Izcotlx THE SCRUBS Tl 1 L . iLruh uam. cuiiiniuiuN known a. ihu liud Shirts., is a Rani that is hani- ly ever heard of at all. They are the men who give the varsity their practice and have more to do in making a good varsity team than most jieople reaHze. They never get a chance to play in a regular game yet they work hard ever - day all season long. Due to the new system of scouting inaugerated during the last two years their work has increased at least seven times. The scout comes in with a set of plays used by a future opponent and the scrubs have to perfect these plays and scrimmage the arsity at least three times during the week prior to the game. This means that for every team that the varsity plays the scrubs have to learn at least ten plays, know the signals and be able to recall the plays upon the spur of the moment. With se en or eight varsity games during the season this shows that the scrubs have to learn about seventy or eighty plays. Some of the plays may be similar but it is safe to sav that no two plavs are exactly the same. The differences must be kept in mind and the plays run correctly or else the arsity does not benefit: they cannot be run in a half hearted manner. The scrubs work at utter disregard of self. They have two incentives for good work. First, the desire to help make a good varsity team and second, a hope that the coach may see in them arsity material and give them a berth on the second varsity squad. It is true that the coach is at all times keeping his eyes on the scrubs for just this thing. Sometimes he finds this material. This year the scrub team was exceptionally good and at least four red shirts were exchanged for black jersies. These men will be heard from in fu- ture years but the men who stay on the scrubs are fellows who have real cour- age to stick out the whole season with little chance of reward of any sort ex- cept that in their own minds they know that they have helped to make a fight- ing engineer eleven. Letter winners on the scrub team were: Barnes, Rlankenburg. Fenwick. Ciottier, Thompson, Margison, Wallace, Capon, Farley, Love, Farrar, Haserot and Fisher. one linndrcd twcntx-one THE FRESHMAN SQUAD w ITH twenty-eight men in suits throughout the season this year ' s fresh- man class can boast of the biggest turnout for frosh football in the history of the college. Their first game was with Franklin High School. This was the first real football contest for most of them. Then they played the Pomona College frosh, Harvard Military Academy. Bakersfield High School. Christian College, San Diego .Army and Xavy Academy and the -S. B. U. C. frosh in the order named. I ' om a loose aggregation of inexperienced men at the first of the .season Coach Bernie Evans. l ' J22 Caltech ' arsity Cajnain. turned them into a fighting unit by the time the season ended. .Mthougli their scores were not all in their favor, thev showed lhe ' had the makings of arsity men in them by the spirit they showed in ail their encount- ers. Numeral winners were: Howard Dodge (Cajitain). H. . . reterman.

' cnt --l-ix:o THE WHEATOX TROPHY Michael Brunner This year Mr. lieaton, a former ' ale man and an ardent follower of athletics, now with the T. V. Allen Co. in Los Angeles, presented Tech with a beautiful perpetual trophy on which each year the name of a football man is to be engraved. The man whose name will apj ear on the cup must possess three qualities — he must be a good sportsman, he must exert a good moral influence on the team, and he must be a good scholar. All the men out for football grade each other in the first two qualities, the grades for scholarship being filled in by the faculty. The man whose total is the highest is the winner of the W ' heato n Tr(iphy. Mike Brunner was the first man to win the honor. His w-ork at end of the Varsity eleven showed that his sportsmanship was far above reproach. He always instilled a spirit of clean play and hard fight into the other members of the squad. These two traits, together with Mike ' s scholarship record, go to show that when he was chosen for the honor this year, the honor went to the right man. The W ' heaton Trophy will remain always at Tech to raise the level of foot- ball sportsmanship to the highest pitch. By having the scholarship requirement it is assured that the man whose name is put on the trophy does not place pleasure before business — football before scholarship. one hundred Hvcntv-three BASKEIBALL Captain Brunner Captain-Elect Werden THIS year Tech was not in the Southern Cahfornia Conference in basket- ball, due to certain difficulties that arose in the football season. The sea- son was, however, ery successful; the team develoinng a great deal dur- ing the year. Ca])tain Mike Brunner, Ed Shafer, and Art Werden were the three letter- men who returned forming a nucleus for Coach Musselman to build the varsity around. Brunner and Shafer had each won their letters for two years. A great blow came early in the .season when Capt. Brunner broke his wrist. The injury kept him from playing in all but the last game of the year. The team practiced at the Pasadena Y. M. C. A. They played practice games with certain Y teams and also with Pasadena High School and Junior College. The regular schedule contained games with neighboring colleges and every game was very interesting. Tech ir.ade 200 points to their opponents 239 in the eight regular games which shows the brand of basketball they [ilayed. Lettermen for this year are: Werden, Maurer, and Peterson, forwards; Starke, center; Pyle, Shafer and Streit, guards. Maurer. Shafer and Brunner are the only seniors, so Tech will have fi e lettermen around which to build next year ' s Varsity. The Frosh will also furnish some good Varsity material. Men who practiced faithfully throughout the season and helped develop the Varsity are : Pearson, Hanson, Maag, Cutler, Gottier, Seymour, Erickson, Capon, Margison, Wallace and Ed Ward. one lunidrcd tivciily-five GAMES TECH-OCCIDEXTAL 31-49 In the first regular game of the season Tech met Oxy on the Franklin High School court. Playing without Captain Mike Brunner the team was working under a handicap but they soon found themselves and at the end of the first half the score was 21-19 in Oxy ' s favor. Tecii came back strong at the ojiening of the second half and took the lead but was unable to retain it. and Oxy finally won by the score of 49-31 after brilliant playing in the latter part of the second half. Tlie starting lineu]) was W ' erden. Alaurer, Starke. Shafer and Pyle. Starke, the lanky Sophomore, showed his great accuracy at shooting baskets by making IS points. Oxy finished second in the Conference, so Tech opponents were first rate performers and the Beaver ' s first game brought out their teamwork and confidence. TECH-LA VERXE 25-34 Tech ' s ' arsity traveled to La erne for their second game. It took the Beavers about seven minutes to get acclimated to their new surroundings and (luring tills time the hosts had acumulated a large enough lead for victory. At the end of the first half the score was 28-10. In the second half Tech made 15 points to La Verne ' s 6. Tech jjlayed a fighting, consistent game du r- ing this period and the last part of the first half. The fight that was thus evident showed the true spirit of the team. During this encounter it functioned very well as a whole, no one individual being responsible for the comeback of the team. TECH-RI:DLAXDS 26-24 Tech journeyed to Redlands with e er}- man determined to give everything he had in the game. The result of this was a very hard fought encounter, the half ending 13-11 in favor of Tech and each team adding 13 digits in the second canto. Scoring honors were equally divided between W ' erden and Starke, each of whom accounted for ten markers. The usual lineup started, however Peterson and Maag had a chance to help Tech in the second half. The game was hard fought throughout and the victory was well earned. The lead oscillated during the first half which made it a good game from the spectators standpoint. TECH-LA VERNE 23-28 In the first home game of the season Tech played La ' erne a return game, being forced to take the short end of a 23-28 score. The encounter was filled with thrills for the spectators and was a hard- fought affair. The first half was especially interesting the score being 9-9. In the second half Tech ' s defense weakened somewhat and the oiifense did not improve enough to cjuite balance this decline. Starke was high man with 1 1 markers. Art W ' erden followed close with ten, while Jack Maurer added the remaining two. one hiDidrcd I ' u ' ciily-six TECH-C. C. C. 25-21 California Christian College met Tech ' s hoop artists on the local Y. M. C. A. floor in a very exciting game. The first half was relatively dull, neither side exhibiting much teamwork or skill and the period ending 12-5 in fa or of the visitors. . t the start of the second half both teams played a different brand of ball. The Bea ers were determined to mercome their se en ])oint handicap. In mo- ments tense with excitement the second half was played and ended a 21-21 tie. .A.fter two minutes rest jilaying was resumed for five minutes, in which Tech held the visitors scoreless and made two goals from the floor thus winning the game. Art W ' erden with eight digits was high man while Starke. Maurer, Pyle, Streit, Erickson and Peterson each contributed points to the final sum. TECH-LOYOLA. 17-18 In one of the fastest and closest games of the year Tech met Loyola on the P. H. S. court, the visitors going home with an advantage of one point. At the close of this encounter the score stood 17-18. The teams took turns being ahead and tlius made the game interesting for the excited rooters. The feature of the game was the fast floor work and dribbling of Ivan Pvle, Tech standing guard. He took the ball many times through the whole Lion team and shot baskets. Such actions on the part of a guard surprised the invaders. Frank .Streit at the other guard position also performed notably. TECH-POMOXA, 25-40 Coach Musselman ' s squad traxeled to Claremont and met the Pomona Col- lege team, emerging with the small side of a 25-40 score. The score does not reallv indicate the merits of the game. At the end of the first half the score was 19-8 in favor of the Sagehens. At the start of the second half the Beavers were working together almost perfectly and staged the best rally of the year. They brought the score up to 21-1 ' in Pomona ' s favor. Then came three successful field goals from long shots, and this seemed to kill the Tech rally. Art W ' erden and Peterson made most of Tech ' s points. Starke Pyle, Maurer. Shafer, Streit, Seymour and Cutler all upheld the honor of the Orange and ' hite in the game. TECH-REDLAXDS, 28-25 Tech finished the season in an impressive manner by defeating Redlands at the Pasadena Y. M. C. A. 28-25. This was a return game and the Bulldogs were determined to avenge their defeat at Redlands of five weeks previous, thus the game was very hard fought and interesting. The first half found both teams [)laying well and neither being able to get much advantage over the other, the periods ending in a 15-15 tie. In the open- ing of the second half Redlands staged a rally, carrying the score to 24-18 in their favor. Then Tech staged a rally and managed to score ten. points to Red- lands ' one in the remainder of the game and so won. Starke was high point man with 12 points. Mike Brunner got in the game, his wrist having sufficiently healed for a few minutes work. one hundred t-a ' cnty-sci ' cn ;.-.,.. - oiir hundred l7i.-ciily-cighl FRESHMEN BASKETBALL f ? S 9 9 fr HE Fresh team this year de eloped into a very strong organization and I will give good material lor next year ' s ' arsity. Credit is due their coaches who helped them mold the team. Prof. Langer acted as coach during the first of the season and later Mike Brunner took over the reins. Their first game of especial merit was a 13-10 win over the fast Pasadena High .School aggregation. They played three games against other Conference Frosh teams. The first of these was with Oxy which Tech won 21-11. It was a fast game, being the teamwork, especially commendable. In the next encounter the Frosh met Pomona ' s peagreeners at Claremont. In this game they were not so successful, losing by a score of 37-9. On the strange floor they seemed un- able to get under way in their usual manner. In the last game of the year for the Frosh, the Redlands Frosh sent the young Beavers away with 13 points to 26 for the BuUpups. The latter displayed a fine brand of ball, yet Tech was in the midst of a rally as the final whistle blew. The Frosh materially helped the ' arsity by scrimmaging with them. Their own success was very gratifying as few of them had had experience in basket- ball before coming to Tech. The men winning numerals were: Evans, Dodge, and Hossack, forwards ; Joujon Roche, center; Lombard, McDonald, McFaddin, Kennv Robinson and Kingman, guards. Others who played with the Class of ' 28 organization were: Schweinfest, Johnson, T. . Robinson, La.sh, George and Sweeting. our linndrcd I ' tcciily-iniic oil! ' Iinndrcil Ihiilv TRACK Captain Henderson SEASON Coach Stanton appears to have contracted a habit that he is incapable of curing. That habit is developing track stars from a very little amount of material. Year after year in the columns of the California Tech is seen the announcement that the stars of the past track season have decided that theirs ' was not to be an engineering profession and have abandoned the abode of Apollo for other realms. And yet, at the end of the season there is a squad of track mutilators that would do credit to any college in the conference. This year Coach Stanton had to face the prospects of having no sprinters, no weight men, no high jumpers, and no distance men. But history repeated itself and before the year was over Edwards and Combs were stepping the cinders in real varsity fashion ; Hoover, Anderson and Edwards were the ruination of many a conference weight star; and Stanton had got to the frosh and developed some of the best high jumpers and distance men that have ever pushed spikes into Paddock field. These men will all be back next year and with the return to college of several star sprinters absent on leave the engineers will face the conference with one of the most dangerous teams ever developed at Tech. Tech finished third this year in conference ratings. Letter winners were Captain Henderson, Alderman, Larson, Newcomb, Pom- eroy, Graham. Hill, Edwards, Pjidwell. Ralston, Meserve, Anderson and Hoover. one Iiundrcd tliirtx-one MEETS A. A. U. MEET After vanquishing most of the available high schools Tech entered a team in the annual A. A. U. relay meet. The big surprise of the meet from Tech ' s stand- point was the vmexpected good showing of Pomeroy in the hurdles. His pretty exhibition in the 440 yard event showed that he was going to be one of the best hurdlers in the conference. Glenn Graham ran into some hard luck in the form of two .Smith brothers from .San Diego, who along with Lee Barnes were able to grab most of the ]ioints in the pole vault. The Tech relay teams made a consis- tent third or fourth, depending whether there were three or four teams entered. In these relav ' S Miller and Henderson did some pretty running. TECH-POMONA MEET Showing a world of unexpected stutf the Sagehens played a funeral dirge for Tech to the tune of 121 to 28. Despite the rather lop sided score the Engineers made Pomona work for every point and the meet was much closer from the spec- tator ' s viewpoint than the score would indicate. Henderson, Ciraham and Ed- wards accounted for first places in their events, while Pomeroy, Hoover and Larsen made determined bids for places. Maxwell. Clark and Turner all did good work for Pomona and accounted for most of the P lue and ' hitc jioints. TECH— OX Y MEET Still wondering what their winning combination was the Beavers were the Tiger ' s meat in the second conference trackfest. The score again indicated a massacre that wasn ' t apparent on the field, and read 92 to 48. The meet started off with a big upset when Edwards went down the century for first place over a field of reputed conference champions. Another early upset was the work of Pomerov in winning over ' all and Tanner of Oxy in the fast time of 16 flat. Hill also delivered the goods in varsity fashion, winning the hammer at 108 feet. Anderson, winning first place for the first time in his e ent. showed a lot of familiarity with the javelin and promised some good future performances, Gra- ham as usual accounted for five points in the pole vault. Larsen also performed in big league fashion in the pole vault and got a tie for second. For Oxy, Morey, Stevens and Bradshaw were the prevailing stars. TECH— BRANCH MEET Finall}- hitting all around the Engineers showed off their stuff ' sufficiently to come from behind and tie the Branch sijuad after a spectacular relay. The Branch got off ' to a good start in the meet and after a few events had been run oft ' it looked as though the Engineers were doomed to lo,se the meet. But Henderson ' s work in the 440, Pomeroy in the hurdles, and the work of the Tech weight squad brought the Beavers within striking distance of the Grizzlies when the relay was called. Even there the (irizzlies seemed lucky for the first three men continued to chalk up a steady lead over the Beavers. I ' ut Henderson, running the last lap, showed that he was capable of more than one 440 a day when he tra eled the last lap in record time and won the relay by inches. It was a wonderful exhiliition of running and ended a wonderful meet. one hundred tlnrty-lzvo ' f jp ' jmr ' - -Twx. one hundred tliirtx-thrce TECH— REDLANDS MEET Having tasted of victory it was hopeless for the Bulldogs to attempt to stop Tech ' s winning streak and the former were defeated 85 2 to 54 ' i. Edwards decided that he hadn ' t been getting his breaks so he stepped out and made himself high point man with three firsts and a second. Pomeroy was also high in digits, winning both hurdle events in fast time over Chuck Bidwell. Merely to round off the day Graham broke the old conference record of 12 feet 6 inches in the pole vault by going two inches higher. The Beavers made a clean sweep of the javelin, Anderson, Hoover and Xewcomb delivering in the order named. Meserve de- livered a first in the 440. Garner of Redlands pro ed to be a thorn in the side of the Tech men for he won the mile, two mile, got a second in the half, and was largely responsible for Redland ' s win of the relay. THE CONFERENCE MEET Tech got thiril in the conference meet by showing off better than had been expected. P ' omeroy delivered the goods in the hurdles although he did not win first; Anderson got a second in the javelin, Edwards made things interesting and Graham was a trifle oft ' form and had to be content with a tie for first in the pole vault with Clark of Pomona. Henderson also put in a pretty bid for the 440 and made the leaders keep up a mean pace. Tech consistently took points away from Pomona and Oxy when they were needed most and finally forced Pomona and Oxy to tie by beating out Pomona in the relay. Anderson showed that he will probably be the leading javelin hurler of the conference and should Mayhew be in the engineer fold next year the combination should prove a hard one to beat.

Scullin, Baustian Starting the season with a sc|uad that looked as though it would be lucky to score a first place the frosh spike ]nishers developed rapidly into one of the best track machines ever put on the field by the peagreeners. During the first part of the season the frosh were represented by men who scarcely knew the feel of spikes and the squad was rather unlucky in accumulating digits. But along toward the latter part of the season these same men were making their quota in the fastest of company. There were very few stars among the frosh squad, team work playing the major part of their success. Coulter, Lynn and Miller were perhaps the biggest stars but they only seemed so because of the performances they were forced to put on by their teammates. Baustian. ( iewertz and Mason also gave some pretty exhibitions in t he middle distances while Mauzy and Gramatky were right there in the hurdles. Hollingsworth ' s performances in the broad jump were of high calibre and class him as a valuable man to have around. The frosh showed that although they could not hope to annex the conference title as a frosh squad, that they would be serious contenders for such a title as varsity men. one hundred thirty-five I qr- • ' ■ .r« f K (Die- liundrcd thirty-six BASMALL i W Captain Fricker With two more games to plaw the lieaver nine had a balanced score sheet with three games won and the same number lost. At that time the GrizzHes and the Sagehens were the Engineers ' two nearest contenders for second place in the conference, Oxy ' s Tigers having first place safely tucked away. ' hen the season started with a hard-earned win from Pomona, the men knew they would have to step lively to keep in the running for the conference honors. The game with Redlands showed a better brand of ball, but in the next game the Sagehens turned the tables and chalked up a win. The two contests at the Branch, one of which was won by each team, were exhibitions of real ball. The men all played the game with the true Tech fight. Although it would be impossible for them to take the championship this year, there will be at least six letternien back next year to make the other teams step. The biggest need of the team this year was the ability to hit at the critical times. In the field the men aW showed that they were capable of handling the ball in a first class manner. niir luiiidrcd thirty-seven GAMES Tech-Pomona Game POMONA AT TECH The conference baseball season opened for the Beaver nine on April 11. when they overcame a six-run lead and won a ninth inning victory over the Sagehens. The scrap was a mediocre game with its bright spots, for neither side either distinguished itself with good playing or disgraced itself with bad. Bluiit ' s bright spot came when he knocked a home run, and threw two men out at third, from centerfield. Crocker knocked out a three-bagger and a single, while Larabee and Maechtelin each batted .600. Fompeo showed himself really capable of covering left field when he snagged a hard-one-to-get that might have been a homer. For Pomona, Hotsinger was the bright spot, getting a three-bagger and a single. i)itching; the whole game and Box Score AB R H VO Peterson, 2b 4 1 1 AUyne, 3b 4 1 2 4 Fricker, c 5 1 2 Caltech Larabee, lb 5 3 3 10 Hits Crocker, rf 5 1 - Maechtelin, j) 5 (1 3 2 Blunt, cf 4 1 1 Pompeo, If 4 2 Pomona Heed, ss 3 2 Hits Score by innings 10 14 1 4 10 12 4 1 1— 8 — 13 Pomona 4 1 10 10 0—7 i 2 Z 2 2 ? 2—17 39 8 13 27 h undred tliirlv-riiilil TECH AT RliDLANDS The Tech nine started otY the game at Redlands 1)y putting three men across home plate in the first inning.

As the second string had previously lost a game to La Verne, the team was out to get revenge, and got it to the tune of 12-4. The game was not especially sensational, but the Engineers played particularly well. La Verne ' s fielding was good, but her infielding was weak. Allyne and Crocker did some excellent stick work, Allyne gathering in a double, two singles, and a wallop that came near being a homer. Crocker ' s hits were not long-distance ones, but they came at op[)ortune times to bring in runs.

The first few inn- ings looked as tho it was going to be a close afl ' air. But in the third inning Oxy found Maechtelin and proceeded to do some heavy-hitting. Teachout, Oxy ' s pitcher, must have had a rabbit ' s foot in his pocket, for try as hard as they could, the Beavers couldn ' t connect with his speed-balls. Crocker made the only hit in the game for Tech, but with none on base it failed to bring in a run. When the game ended.

Both sides made se eral breaks, but Pomona was always fortunate enough to benefit by Tech ' s mistakes to a greater extent than Tech was by Pomona ' s.

The Beavers knocked Holsinger out of the box in the early part of the game, but they were unable to compete with Shaw who replaced him. Pompeo came thru with some nice catches.

P.. U. C. (Doul)le-header) The Beavers went to the Branch with the intention of playing two seven- inning games, but the teams were so evenly matched that it took nine innings apiece to decide the contests. The outstanding Tech player was Iron-man Maechtelin, who pitched eighteen successful innings of excellent ball. Not once did he get himself into water too hot to get out of in the entire duration of play. At one time he prevented a score with one out and three men on base. Allyne did himself proud with his throws to first, and the consistency with which he knocked the ball over the lot. He got three hits out of four times at bat in the first game, and a two-bagger in the second. Larry caught every ball that came to first, whether it was a perfect throw or not. Xone who saw it will forget Pompeo ' s throw from left field when the first game might have been lost. He threw the ball far and true and held the runner on third. Blunt and Pricker also got nice hits. Three close decisions given to the Branch in the second game probably had a lot to do with the way the results turned out. The first game was a 3-2 victorv for Tech. while the second went to the Grizzlies bv a 2-1 count.

FROSH BASEBALL The frosh baseball squad was more inexperienced than most teams that come out in their year at Tech. Most of the candidates for positions on the squad could boast of no more experience than that gained in a vacant lot. Noel and Scullin both looked pretty good behind the bat, but it will take considerable working over to turn them into varsity material. In the box both Joujon-Roche and Hookway took a try at hea ing the ball. Rummelsburg handled himself nicely at first base, and Dodge showed that he could use the bat for the purjjose it was intended to be used. The other men were amateurs in the true sense of the word. They played games with the various high schools and frosh teams, but rarely came home with the bigger score. The lineup that played most was : Scullin and Xoel, catcher; Joujon-Roche and Hookway, pitcher; Rummels- burg, first base; .Schweinfest, second base; Don Johnson, third base; Hughes and Dodge, short stop ; Evans, Schroter, Lynn, Lombard, Hicks, Mac Faddin, and Robinson took turns in the field. Lieut. Ciullatt and Hustnn Taylor coached the peagreeners. and John Hillegas was their manager. one hundred forty-three INTRAMURAL SPORTS ]ntraiiuir;il athletics have finally come into their own. This year the interest shown in the interclass sports has heen greater than ever before and the brand of. sport has been considerably improved. In the interclass competition the Juniors got off to a flying start by annexing the football championship after some keen competition oft ' ered by the sophomores who got second. The games were replete with all the customary varsity thrills and a number of potential varsity men for next season were uncovered. In this first sport the seniors and freshmen tied for third but did not play off their tie. The freshmen came to life in the second sport, cross country, and gathered enough points to enable them to claim first place. Their combination of Miller and Gewertz was sure poison to the regular varsity men during all the runs. The sophomores showed their persistency by getting enough digits to claim second place points. At the end of the cross country races the juniors, sophomores and freshmen were pretty well bunched up at the head of the point column. The sophomores, tired of getting second places, staged a comeback in track, surprising both themselves and the college by taking a hotly contested meet. This meet was the closest interclass battle staged in years and it was the multitude of seconds and thirds that enabled the second year men to finally grab the meet. The frosh showed u]) especially well in the competition and promised the arsity some real material when the 1926 roll-call is sounded. . fter everything was over in basketl«all it was found that the juniors had again taken the lead by getting first. The usual crowds that attended the intra- mural games were absent from these contests and the games were for that reason not quite so spectacular as they would have been had their been encouragement fnini the balcony. The junior waterdogs made it all wet for the rest of the college and won the intramural swimming cham])ionship. The results of the meet left the juniors still in possession of first jilace with the sophomores within striking distance. At the time of writing there are still liaseball and the minor sjiorts to be run oft . The juniors. so])homores and freshmen are so launched that a win in baseball along with a clean sweep in two of the minor sports will mean intramural ciiam- pionship for the winning class. The minor sports to be contested are handball, tennis, wrestling and boxing. Besides the dift ' erent interclass struggles a great deal of enthusiasm was ex- pended on the basketball leagues. After a season of ups and downs the Dormen- ians finally van(|uished the Civils for the cham])ionship of the Independents and the Pharos took over the championship of the Fraternities. In the play-oft ' for the college chanii)ionshii) the Pharos .showed well and played the Dormenians to a stand .still. The attendance at the gaines was greater than ever before and the brand of i)laying certainly justified the enthusiasm. one hiiiulrcd forty-four ) :, VARSITY SWIMMING Van dk.n Akkkr Thompson Ball Fisher BOVD Matson Burke Ward Farly Buxton Love Edwards This years swimming team, coaeiied and captained by Joe Matson, liad ex- cellent prospects before the season began, of taking the conference championship for the sixth straight year. However, the loss of Bryan and W ' ingfield, and the death of Lohse left the team in a bad way as far as the championship was con- cerned. This year competition has been nnich keener than in past years, due to the vast imjirovement in the swimming ranks of the Conference Colleges. In spite of this, Tech made an excellent showing by taking second place in the Con- ference ratings for the season.

For Tech, Ward was high point man, taking first in the 100 and 220 yard dashes in good time. Alatson took second in the dives and backstroke. Fisher and lioyd annexed four points in the 440. Van den Akker, Thompson, and Edwards accounted for thirds in the SO, plunge and breast stroke respectively. Tech won the relay. On counting up the score U. S. C. had 45 to 32 points for Tech. TECH vs U. C. S. B. The first conference meet proved a big upset for Tech when the Branch took the high end of a 54 to 23 score. Ward again was high point man for Tech, with firsts in the 100 and 220 yards. Matson won the back-stroke and took sec- ond in the dives. Fisher took second in the 440. Thompson with his third in the plunge, and ' an den Akker with his third in the breast stroke, completed Tech ' s score. TECH vs POMONA In the second conference meet, Tech travelled to Pomona and handed them a 41 to 36 beating. Ward and Fisher grabbed first and second in the 220. Ward added 5 more points by taking the 100. Joe Matson was high point man with firsts in the back stroke and plunge, and second in the dives. Bogen and Van den Akker added 4 points in the breast stroke. Fisher took first in the 440, with Bux- ton third. Tech finallv won the relav, and with it the meet. CONFERENCE MEET The dope was not upset in the conference swimming meet held at Brook- side Park. Pasadena. -Southern Branch won the meet with 39 points, Cal Tech got second with 20 points, Pomona, third with 19 points and Oxy took the cellar, with 5 points. Swimming in good form. Ward won the 100 and 220 yards, while Fisher took the 440 in good time for Tech. Thompson added three points in the plunge, and Matson took third in the backstroke. Tech clinched second place in the meet by grabbing third place in the relay, beating Pomona by one point. one Jiiuidrcd forty-seven FRESHMAN SWIMMING BliRRY Peterman Matson RonixsoN Lewis Jacobson Grimes Crosher Shepley Weego Tlie freshmen class always succeeds in developing a representative swimming team, although outside tanks have to be used. In the Tech-U. S. C. meets the frosh entered a relay team composed of Crosher, Jacobson. Peterman, and Berry, with Grimes as alternate, that showt ' d up well compared to the varsity. In spite of this showing the Branch Frosh upsel them in their first meet with a strong well-rounded team. Kenny Crosher. manager of the team, won first place in the 50 yards, and tiiird in the 220 yards. Jacobson got third in the 100 yards and .Sheplev, third in the 440. Crimes showed well in the backstroke when he won first place. Lewis got second in the plunge and Robinson added another point by getting third in the breast stroke. Although the frosh did not manage to win the conference this year, their showing was very good considering the inexperienced material on which the team was built. With a season ' s training, next year the men will all be aluable on the varsity, and w ill help bring back the championship. huiidrrd furty-ciyht TENNIS Ross Ranney Adams Parker BlRRELL Sheffield The Tech tennis team emerged from the 1925 conference season in fourth place. Although four of last year ' s men — Ranney, Sheffielcf, Adams and Parker were back, they did not seem to be able to keep up the winning streak they started by defeating Oxy in the first meet. The squad was chosen, as has been the custom heretofore, by an elimina- tion tournament, followed by a round robin. The purpose of the latter was to gi e to those men who were defeated by the players in the finals another chance to make the first string, for if a man defeated a member of the squad, he was able to replace the latter in the subsequent meets. The ratings of the first eight men at the beginning of the season were in the following order: Parker, Ranney, Adams, Sheffield, Ross, Burrell, Gunning and Lewis. Practice meets were held with La Verne, U. S. G. and the U. S. C. Dentals. At the end of the season the Piranch was victor, having won every meet. Redlands, Pomona, Tech, Oxy and hittier followed in the order named. Red- lands rose from her lowly position of last year, being defeated only by the Grizzly squad this year. Pomona, as well as any opponents who met her at home, was handicapped in having only one concrete. court. She won decisive battles against Tech, Whittier and Oxy this season however. Oxy ' s only win was from Whittier, who failed to come out ahead during the entire season. one hundred forty-nine MATCHES CALTECH VS. OXY. The Beavers upset all the dope and handed everybody, including themselves, a surprise by winning the first meet of the season from Oxy by a 4-3 score. Ran- ney and Ross lost first doubles, but Adams and Parker took the second. Burrell and Ranney won their singles, while Adams lost his, leaving the decisive match to Ross. His steady playing proved to be better than that of his opponent, for he tocjk the match 6-2, 6-3, giving Tech the tournament. CALTECH A ' S. POMOXA The Sagehens managed to send the Beaver net artists home with the wrong end of a 6-0 score. Pomona ' s team was superior in that the men could shift from one position to another without any difficulty. Parker and Ranney put up a hard fight for first doubles, but they were finally outdone. Ikirrell and Adams were more easily conquered in the second doubles. Parker, Burrell and Ross l)Ut u[i good fights for the singles matches, but failed to chalk u]) wins. The other singles match was not played. CALTECH V.S. U. C. S. B. The Branch left the Tournament Park courts with every point that it is possible to get in (me meet. As the Grizzly team was conceded to have been the strongest aggregation of racketers in the conference, the 7-0 win was not entirely unwarranted. Ranney and Parker played first doubles, Ross and Burrell second doubles, and Parker, Ranney, Sheffield and Ross the singles matches. Sheffield offered the most competition in the singles but he was considerably hindered by a cripjiled arm. CALTECH ' S. REDLAXDS Redlands encountered considerable difficulty in annexing her meet, but finally finished with the large end of a 5-2 tally. The first doubles was a three set aftair. Kanney and Parker, however, .suffering defeat. In the second doubles the first set ended with Ijurrell and .Sheffield the winners by a 10-8 count, then they took the match by winning the second set 6-1. Parker, Ranney.

The frosh showed the interest they take in even the minor sports by participating thirty stron j in the tryouts. The last minute information concerning the ratings of the four highest men was: C ' liilberg, first; Thompson, second; iJramatky, third, and Lawrence Foster, fourth. The men next in line were : Lombard, I ' ohl, Holioway, Lash and His- serick. They all gave promise of making the high men work to keep their posi- tions thruout the season. A meet with the I ' asadena junior College ended disastrously, Chilberg being the only one of the yearlings to hold his own. The chief criticism wa.s the one that usually falls to a frosh athletic team — lack of teamwork. They did not seem to pull together in the doubles. The first conference meet was with the Redlands frosh. The men showed considerable impro ement over their preceding dis])lay altho they did not win any matches. They held both doubles opjiositions to S-6 scores. No doubt the end of the season will show them to ha e made enough improxemeiit to be on the right end of several meets. one hundred fijly-tico BOXING AND WRESTLING AssT. Coach Cunnincham Lewis TuoiMPSon Sperling Knupp Griffith Ward Rodgers Moore Haserot Farly Love Gevvertz Anuersox Hall Peterman Newton Dinsmore Tacobson Tones Under the guidance of Harr ' Cunningham the Engineer leather pushers had quite a strenuous season. Several jjleasing entertainments were put on tor the student body and several outside colleges were met. The turnout this year was very consistent and the material was of the best variety. As usual the freshmen and sophomores headed the enrollment list and the grudge fights put on by these men were one of the bright s pots in the sport. Early in March the combined squads of lioxing and wrestling put on a show that drew quite a crowd. In the boxing end there were bouts between Kirkeby and Sperling, at 142 pounds. Schott and Hall, at 130 jiounds, Moore and Newton, at 165 pounds, and Jacobson and Gewertz, at 128 pounds. The best bout of the evening was demonstrated by the last pair who put on a clean fast match. Besides this Coach Griffin put his crew of wrestlers on exhibition for the first time. There were four bouts between Dodge and Farly, Love and Haserot, Rodgers and Moore, and Lewis and allace. The fights were all well received. The boxing crew, at the time of writing, had not met any conference teams, but were full of promises that meant bad tidings for any they might meet. one hundred fifty-three RIFLE TEAM Left to right: Ronr.F.RS. Kroi ' skr, jAiiGER, Laraukf., Gunning, Kordquist, Triggs, Nf.wton, Larsox. Farlv. Riggs. Under the cajjable guidance of George Kaye. president, anci Rodgers, manager, tlie rifle clut) has enjoyed a very successful season. For the first time in its his- tory, the rifle club has a definite status in connection with the student body, since an amendment was ])assed last year that made rifle shooting a minor sport. The team that represents Tech in the matches is picked on the following basis: Mach member shoots one or more targets every week, and those having the highest aver- age make the team. The military dejiartment is largely respnnsilile for the suc- cess of the club as it furnisl.e th.e members with fire arms, ammunition, and the use of the range. Every year a rifle match is held by the Ninth Coq s Area of all colleges in the west. The team that represented Caltech made a very good showing bv taking fifth [)lace, being beaten only by Oregon Argicultural College, Southern liranch, Pomona and Montana. In a Triangular match with Pomona and the Piranch. the Tech score was verv high, as was the ca. e in the X. R. . . and College shot)ts. one hundred fifty-four ACTIVITIES I ORATORY LOLEMAN ' Foster Two men ably represented C. I. T. in the oratorical field during the past year. Ted Coleman, in oratory, and Ward Foster, in extempore, did splendid work for the college and never failed to make strong bids for first honors. Due to the efforts of these two men. Caltech has been able to maintain a prominent place among the colleges of the conference. The first contest of the year was the Conference Extemporaneous Speaking Contest held at W ' hittier in December. C. I. T. was represented by Ward Foster, who placed third with a very forceful and convincing speech. There were two oratorical contests during the year. The first was the Southern California Intercollegiate Peace Contest held at Occidental on April 16. Ted Coleman, representing C. I. T., was rated first by two judges, but due to a low grade from the other, he jilaced among the seven contestants. On April 24, Coleman again represented Tech in the third annual Conference Ora- torical Contest held in Los Angeles. Here again fortune frowned, and he took third place. Both Coleman and Foster will be back next year, and it is to be expected that the experience they gained this year will serve to garner laurels in the future. one hundred fifty-five DEBATIXG Bfxknap Walkkr Ross Kodgkrs Gilmore Case Stanton Bovver Burke Fulvvider Thayer LOOKIXt; back over the forensic season of 1924-25, Caltech is proud of the work its debaters have done. At the end of a season in which few- debates were won this statement may seem forced. It is customary for a loser to apologize for his record, to ofTer alibis and excuses and promise victories for the future ; but such nonsense is unnecessary, for Tech has every reason to be proud of its debaters. Forensic work at C. I. T. presents a peculiarly difficult i)robl ' m inasmuch as none of the students pursue liberal courses. .Ml men follow ens ineering courses which afford no forensic training and allow almost no time for out- side forensic work. Men of great natural talent in this field are seldom at- tracted tf) C. I. T., so it is consequently very difficult for Tech to compete with other colleges. In spite of this handicap, Tech lias always adopted an extensive forensic program, and has always acquitted itself witli honor. hundred fifty-six The Institute ' s success in forensic work can not be judged by the pro- portion of debates won. A far better criterion is the number of men actually participating in the work, from this standpoint the season has been most aus- picious. Over thirty men did serious work on the varsity debate S(|uad dur- ing the season — the largest number in the history of forensics at the college. Although not all these men stayed with the squad throughout the season, the fact that they did come out is strong indication of the growing interest in col- lege forensics among the students. Much of this interest can be attributed to the enthusiasm and support of Mr. Stanley Pargellis and Mr. Paul Emmett, who devoted a great deal of time to the training of the debaters. All men who engaged in debate work profited not only from valuable experience they received, but also from their intimate contact with these men. The following is a summary of the debates of the season: The proposition for debate during the conference season was: Resolved : That the Immigration Act of 1924 be amended to admit Japanese upon the same basis as Europeans.

One pre-season debate was taken up in addition to the regular schedule, and at all times an active interest in the work was evidenced. The men who came out for freshman debating did remarkably well; it is to be hoped that they all will be out to add to the glorv- of the varsity squad in the future. The men who formed the frosb squad were W. L. Berry, G. L. Chilberg, K. H. Robinson. T. W. Roliinson. G. A. Schroter. J. . ! chweinfest. and H. E. .Sweeting.

Philoctetes , given last year by the California Gamma Chajiter of Pi Kajipa Delta, encouraged a repetition of classic drama this year, and the Latin comedy Phormio was chosen as the offering best suited to Tech talent and Tech audiences. The play, written by Terence in the times of Cicero, was given at Culbert- son Hall and at the South Pasadena High School and the success it achievea demonstrated beyond a doubt that engineers are not always lacking in dramatic talent. Unlike Philoctetes. the play was quite comical and full of human inter- est, being based on very modern situations. The two feminine characters call- ed for in the cast were ably rejiresenled by Jack Fahs and Harold Sheffield, who [irovoked more than the usual laughter accorded female impersonators. The other characterizations were also excellently done and so well balanced was the cast that no one person could be said to be the outstanding star of the per- formance. Too much credit cannot be given to Dr. Macarthur and Mr. Ogier for their splendid coaching, the results of which were so noticeable throughout the play. It is to be hoped that Pi Kajipa Delta will make such a production an annual event. Prologue. Ted Coleman Davos, a slave, Bill Lewis Geta, a slave of Demipho. Joe Walker. Antipho, son of Demipho.

Its brilliant success was only attained through the co-operation of the members in attending rehearsals regularly twice weekly throughout the year and incessant efforts of director Walter Ogier Jr. The club de eloped an unusual rei ertoire. the selections varying from heavy pieces like The Lord Dunderburg to humorous ones like the Big Brown Bear and Red Noses. Theodore Coleman ' s readings were always pleasing and the saxaphone solos gi en by Dwight Degnan were always greeted by a heavy ap- plause. John Michelmore invariably made a great hit with his lyric tenor solos. Undoubtedly the busiest {lart of the glee club was the c|uartet which sang almost every week at some meeting in or near Pasadena. The concerts given by the quartet besides those in conjunction with the Glee Club were Dr. Mil- likan ' s reception at the Maryland Hotel, Pomona Hi-Y club. A.S.C.E., Los An- geles section, Pasadena Realty Board, G..A..R. of Pasadena, Men ' s Club of the Pasadena Presbyterian Church, South Pasadena High School with the presen- tation of Phormio, Cosmopolitan Dinner, Tech Nite at the Raymond, Broad- casting station KNX, The Jefferson School in Pasadena, and several after the annual had gone to press.

They met twice weekly for practice and developed some very good harmony. The officers elected at the beginning of the year were James K. Moore pres- ident, and Theodore Coleman, secretary. Eugene Riggs and Alfred Rummels- burg were the accompanists. The secondary purpose of the chorus was to develop men for the glee club and for the possible production of a musical comedy, and to form a neucleus for harmonv in the sings held in the student assemblies.

THl ' L Dujjdut. althougli in its present form a recent desclopment of campus life, fully justifies itself by its unfailing popularity as a recreational and social center. The idea is not new, but goes back to the war days when Hambrook and F.rb conducted a lunch counter on the campus under the same name. The first Dugout, although humble in itself, became the mighty center of student opinion and discussion. After its dissolution in 1921, agitation was at once started for another liuilding to take its place. The ambitions of the w orkers for the cause were achieved when after three years the present building was erected through the courtsey of Mr. and . lr . K. R. IMacker of the board of trustees. Contributions were gratefully accepted from several commercial companies in Southern California and with this aid and a general subscription, the student body and faculty added a uni(|ue fire])lace to the ecjuipment of the building. All subscribers were sold bricks on which they carved their names, thus giving a really personal touch to the project. The hearthstone was jiresented by the faculty, the class of ' 24 furnislied the bronze motto; the class of ' 25 the bronze T ; The class of ' 26 the mantel with the carved beaver head supports ; and the class of ' 27 supplied the ;uidiriins. The po])ularity of the Dugout has never lessened. Not only does it do dailv serxice for those who eat their noon repast on the campus, but it has also belli the scene of many dances, dinners, and various other gatherings. one liundicd sixly-cight The California Tech PUBLISHED EVEKV WEDNESDAY DURING THE COLLEGE YEAR BY THE ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY OF THE CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY.

' 0 : f uiw hundred sct ' cntv-tlirce A RESUME OF PURLICATIOX ' riic California Tech, the weekly newspaper, and The Big T, the college annual, l ( th j ublishcd by the Associated Student Body, are of recent origin, being only five years old. They represent, however, not the start, but rather the outgrowth of a series of pub- lications, which began with the Polytechnic. a magazine sponsored by the students of the old co-educational school, Throop Polytechnic. This publication was discontinued in 1910. when the college moved to its present site. In Februar -, 1913, The Throop Tech made its appearance, and was issued as a quar- terly until 1916, when it was changed to a monthly, although some issues were skipped as not enough copy accumulated to warrant getting out a number. The annual for these years consisted of the last monthly edition of the year, and was usually larger than the rest. In 1919 the Tech became a weekly publication, and the annual became a separate pub- lication. Interest h as increased each year, and now one-fifth of the student body is actively engaged in work on either or both The California Tech and the B g T.

The Honor System is distinctly a student body institution — it could not be otherwise. As the name implies, it is a system whereby every man is jilaced en- tirely on his own honor in matters concerning all phases of college life. It is pro- moted entirely by the students themsehes through the Board of Control, the facultv taking no action whate er in the manner in which it is carried out. The fundamentals and ideals of the system are fully explained to new mem- bers of the student body, and the way in which they have grasped the true spirit of the tradition is shown by the fact that, while at other colleges, so-called Honor Svstems are being misused, scorned, and consequently have been failing, here at Tech it can be truthfully be stated that the Honor System is improving and growing stronger each year. Tech men hold it above any other tradition or phase of their college life. one hundred eighty-one J ' AR.NALI, BURKK Fkrkki. Evans CorELANU GiLMORE COURT OF TRADITIONS Senior J udge Albert J.

This court inter- prets the Traditions and distributes such punishments as are necessary for the offenders in question. In orijanizing tlie Court in 1922. the prime object was to do away with the practice of hazing, which is of no credit to any student body. This year an attempt has been made to make such disciplining; of ad antage to student life, and so to some extent the ])unishments ha e been in the nature of work around the campus, instead of the various humiliatini); tasks which the Court has been accustomed to administer. one hundred righty-ltco HONOR SOCIETIES THE honor societies include practically every branch of campus activity. Tan Beta Pi, for scholarship ; Pi Kappa Delta, for forensics ; the Varsity Club, for athletics ; the Press Club, for publications ; the Honor Key System, for activities in general, and Pi Kappa Sigma for military activities, help to sustain interest in the various branches of campus life. TAU BETA PI The greatest honor that can come to an engineering student is to l)e elected to Tau Beta Pi, the National Honorary Engineering Society. The eligibility list includes the highest eighth of the junior class and the highest fourth of the senior class. When actual selection is made, however, emphasis is placed upon person- ality and character as well. For this reason the entire student body takes great interest in the Society. The charter of the California Beta Chapter was granted in 1921. In addi- tion to promoting a generally broader education for engineers, Tau Beta Pi plans several social events each year. These have usually taken the form of several banquets and formal dances. PI KAPPA DELTA Pi Ka]ipa Delta, the National Honorary Forensic Society, has for its prin- cipal object the fostering of interest in debating and oratory. The selection of members is made from those who have taken part in college debates or orator- ical contests. In addition, the chapter has continued the successful precedent of producing a classic drama, which was established last year. This year Phormio, a Roman comedy by Terence was given. Social affairs are also held by the chap- ter during the year. The California Gamma Cha[)ter of the Society was installed in 1921, when Dr. Macarthur, now Dean of Freshmen, was National President. THE HONOR KEY SYSTEM Wearers of the Honor Kev, although not definitely organized, do much towards ])romoting general activity in campus affairs. The keys are the Stu- dent Body ' s token of appreciation for the wf)rk by the recipients, for they are awarded only after distinguished services done. In order that the honor of possessing a key may not be lessened by too many presentations, an Honor Key Committee supervises the system. Ac- tivities are alloted points in the order of their importance and the work con- nected with them. At the end of the year the men who have particijiated in a sulticient number of activities to give them the necessary twenty-four points are given keys. oiu- luiitdrcd eiyhly-four ' ARSITY CLUB The Varsity Club has for its members the wearers of the Orange and Miite T , earned by participation in athletics. Those who make one of the major sport teams, (football, basketball, track, baseball), or two of the minor sport teams, (swimming, tennis), are the active members of the club and Coaches are honorary members. Furthering of interest in athletics is the principal object of the club, which acts as a communicating body between the various teams and the Ex- ecutive Committe. Social functions are also sponsored, chief of which is the A arsitv Club dance, to which the entire -Student Bodv is invited. PRESS CLUB The Press Club is an honorary association of students who have shown special interest in literary and journalistic work. It has for its purpose the raising of the standard of all work of this sort done at Tech. and it also pro- vides a means of men thus engaged to get together and discuss notable products of masters of the pen. Initiation into the club includes the publication of the Hot Rivet , the annual Razz edition of the Tech, in which the secret vices and puldic ec- centricities of various members of the student body are exposed and elabor- ated upon. Much concern in this scandal sheet is shown by all members of the student body, as no-one knows who are to be the next victims of ex- posure. PI KAPPA SIGM.A The Pi Kappa .Sigma I ' Valerniry was founded to secure .-mi ' iiig the aiKaiiced Reserv-e Officers ' Training Corps Students a closer cooperation for the purpose of encouraging military training in the College, of stimulating the de elopment of the essential qualities of good and efficient officers, and of promoting good fellowship and virile progressive Americanism. The Fraternity bases its selection of members not alone upon display of military efficiency, but upon character and manhood as well, for it maintains that a successful officer must possess not only a knowledge of Militarv Science and Tactics, but all the attributes of a gentleman. oiw litindrcd eighty-five TAU BETA PI © n Founded in 1885 45 Memrers of California B AT Lehigh University Chapters F.TA Chapter, Chartered in 1921 Faculty Dr. Robert A.

This object can best he accomplished by the promotion of technical research; by meetings where members gather to hear technical papers read and discussed, and profit by the stimulus of contact of mind with mind — In carrying out this policy the local student branch feels that it renders a great service toward the development of student life at California Tech. Through the efforts of Prof. Robert L. Daugherty the local student branch has had the most hearty cooperation of the Los Angeles Section of the A. S. M. E. The student branch members were privileged to attend the meetings of the L. A. Chaiiter and this year were especially entertained at a field day and inspection of the industrial plants at the ' ernon district. The student branch was also highly honored this year by the visit of Mr. Hartford and Mr. Penrose of tiic New York headcjuarters of the A. S. M. E. The sludent branch members with the assistance of Prof. W. Howard Claji]) entertained the L. .X. Section of the American .Steel Treaters Asso- ciation at their regular meeting on the college campus. The showing of the . rmcii t ' mis and the A. .S. M. E. dance were other features put on b - the student branch. During meetings held bi-weekly, student members present ])apers or prom- inent outside speakers give talks on some engineering subject. The members of the society iiave the oi)i)ortunity of meeting outside engineers, whose ac- quaintance will undoubtedly prove advantageous in their later life. cHi ' liundrcd niiwly-ciyht Officers Edgar M.

Wilson two luiitdrcd The ai;n of the local branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engi- neers is primarily to bring the electrical engineering students into closer con- tact with the electrical industry and this year has been an active one in the pursuit of that aim. Many very interesting meetings have been held, the stu- dents being addressed by prominent men from the various electrical organi- zations, notably the two largest electrical manufacturing companies, the W ' est- inghouse Co. and the General Electric Co. These talks have covered a wide range of subjects, varying from the common and well known induction motor to the most complicated new design of automatic equipment. In addition, several meetings were addressed by our own students who had had experience in some [)hase of electrical work which made them ca])able of presenting some well worth while material. Here, too, the subjects were varied and interesting and the meetings well attended. Also, inspection trips were made to interesting places which were not regularly covered in the trips ar- ranged by the faculty for all the electricals. This year the plan of having some of the meetings of a more or less social character at which refreshments were served was inaugurated into the branch program. Unfortunately, the A. I. E. E. is handicajiped in a like manner to the rest of the professional societies by being unable to arrange its meetings in such a maimer as to avoid conflict with other activities and some very interesting ad- dresses could not be arranged for that reason. In spite of this handicap, hov, ' - e er. this }e2r has been one of marked progress for this branch as is evidenced by the increased meniliership and the large attendance at the meetings. tz .

Uiiward ttvo hundred ttvo The American Society of Civil Engineers is a national organization which strives to develop first, the profession by encouraging the writing of treatises upon engineering subjects and second, the engineer as the man by social con- tact. The Student Chapter of the Society is designed to make students who are receiving a technical education familiar with the purposes of the organization. The Chapter here at California Tech has a very unique opportunity of accom- lishing this aim. Student members are invited to take advantage of the monthly meetings held by the Los Angeles Section. Several of the members have attended the various meetings hearing questions of an engineering nature discussed by emin- ent engineers. The regular May meeting of the Los Angeles .Section was held with the Student Chapter in the Dugout. Besides the banquet and the general inspection of the campus, the combined organizations listened to a very interest- ing talk by Dr. Millikan. In addition to these activities with the Los Angeles Section, the -Student Chapter has staged several functions which have been very successful. In the first term the chapter saw the motion picture presented by Mr. Lloyd Aldrich. Mem. Soc. C. E. covering the road tests made at Pittsburg California. About one-hundred twenty-five men attended the meeting which is evidence that con- siderable interest was displayed. In January a group of the members enjoyed a cabin party in the San Gabriel Canyon and also visited the various dam sites of the Pasadena Water Department. In February Mr. Heilbron a member of the Chapter read a paper upon the construction of the Delaware River Bridge which he illustrated with a very good set of slides. On a whole the members feel as though this has been a erv successful and eventful vear. tico hundred three ECONOMICS CLUB Tlu ' I ' .cdn Club is composed of iuniors and seniors interested in econcMiiics. Meelinss are held twice a month at the home of Professor Laing. New books on current economic subjects are outlined by the members, and then discussed over the refreshments provided by the host. Shaw ' s i)lays and such books as lUmk, Essays on Truth. and others, in addition to the rejijular economic readings, have been popular. Through the generosity of Professor l.aing. the I ' A ' on Club has enjoved the most successful year of its existence. Offickk.s John K. xM. i. ' ri;k President Paul C.

McProud was largely re- sponsible for the firm establishment of the local Chapter in spite of the unsuc- cessful attempts made heretofore. The showing of a motion picture on the Mechanism of an Automobile was one of the outstanding events of this year ' s calendar. Numerous discussions were held by the Chapter on the various phases of Automotive Engineering. Some of the members received the official Journal published by the National Organization and benefited greatly !iy it. Officers C. G.

Bowman Treasurer ..Arthur Allyxe The Chem Club is the oldest i)rofessional organization on the campus. Its ])uri oses are: to stimulate interest in chemistry and chemical subjects at C. I. T., to promote friendship and fellowship among the students in chemistry, to keep in contact with recent ad ances in chemical knowledge and especially the work done in the Gates Chemical Laboratory, and to promote interest and discussion on chemical subjects. Meetings are held every Wednesday noon, when the men lunch together and listen to discussions on some topic of general interest. Storage Batteries, Sugar Refining, Varnish, Cement, and other topics of technical interest were in- cluded. Among the talks of a more theoretical interest were those on Ozone, Chloric Oxide. Determination of Crystal Structure by means of the X-Ray, Addition of HBr to Unsaturated Comjmunds and many others. .A series of talks was given on the relation of chemistry to the body. Each year two trips are taken by the Club. One. taken in the first term, is usuallv in the nature of a hike, while the other is usuallv a house party at the beach. In the first term of the college year Camp i ' .aldy was the goal of a pleasant trip. A week-end house party at the beach was enjoyed in the third term. This year another form of entertainment. A Chem Club Hi Jinx, was un- dertaken, and proved so successful that it is hoped that one will be held each year in the future. It took the form of a smoker held in the Dugout. Several alumni attended and a feed, music, billiards and cards heli)ed to renew old ac- (|uaintances. It can be safely said that this was the most active and successful year the I hem Club ever had. It is hoped that it will expand as much in the future as it has this vear. H ' li hundri ' d six Faculty Members Dr. illiam X. Lacey Howard J. Lucas Horace C. Adams illiam H. Allen Arthur B.

The Y has been given a very marked boost in importance to the general Student Body by obtaining for its General Secretary. Charles Schwieso. Jr. It has been through his efforts that the has accomplished so much this year and become one of the most important organizations in the College. Membership in the Y. M. C. A. this year has closely approached the one hundred per cent mark. The matters of room, board and employment, have all especially been well cared for during the year. All rooms have been i . spected before being listed and the numlier of jobs secured for the students has greatly exceeded that of any jirexious }ear. (.Jood speakers for regular student assemlilies were brought to Tech by the efforts of the Y. George -S. Eddy. Dr. Seerly and Dr. George Irving all gave extremely interesting talks to the general assemblies. A novel assembly which was sponsored by the Y was the Christmas assembly at which Dr. Freeman spoke. This was the first Christmas assembly ever held at Tech. The discussion groups carried on during the year have been well attended and the discussion has lieen .spirited. The friendship council which is a smaller group and meets in the down town Y. M. C. .A.., has increased in attendance and meets a real need in the life of the student. .A record attendance at .Asilomar was shown this year. Ten delegates in- cluding the general secretary, spent the latter part of the Christmas holidays at the Conference. .As all the delegates can testify, the Asilomar conferences arc an ins|)iration and should be attended at least once liy every man in college. One of the most imimrtant new projects of the Y has been the organ- ization of the Cosmopolitan Club. By means of this Club the Y has endeav- ored to bring the foreign students into closer contact with the American stu- dents and promote fellowship among them. Social functions of the Y were numerous and full of life. A mixer in the Dugout during the first term started things oiif in great style, for the upper- classmen, frosh and transfers got a wonderful opportunity to get acquainted. A hike up Mt. Wilson, a cabinet retreat at the Pacific Palisades, and a liig Faculty- . ' s tudent Mixer were also staged by the ' . (ii ' t) hundred eight Charles Schwieso, Jr General Secretary Cabinet Donald P.

Dar- ing the first term the Club held a dance in the dugout, to which members of the student body were invited ; in the second term a dance was held in the Dorm for the Broadoaks Dorm girls, and in the third term a hard times dance in the dugout was managed by the Club. In addition several smokers provided enter- tainment tor the stags throughout the year. Officers Keith M. ilson President Harry E. Cunningham Vice-President J.

Early in the first term, members of the Club got together and decided to change the name, as it was felt that the former one was not satisfactory. Shortly afterward, a new pin, distinct from the official De Molay pin was adopted for the organization. A crest for the organization has also been decided u])on, and will probably be delivered during the last term for the use of the club. The D. M. 15. is not a regular chapter of the Order of De Molay, but acts under a sjiecial grant from Headquarters of the Order. During the first term a ery successful smoker was held, and se eral other social events have been planned. Officf.ks Harry K.

C. A. an organ- ization known as the Cosmopolitan Club was formed. This unique organization is the first of its kind at Tech. The purposes of the Club as set down in the constitution are to promote goodfellowshi[) among the students of different nations and to forward the movement of universal peace. The Cosmo])olitan Clubs which have been organized throughout this and other countries are a re- sult of a Youth mo ement. which has endea ored to help overthrow old inter- national jealousies and hatreds and to set up in their place a sjiirit of co-oper- ation and friendshi[i. The membership in the Cosmopolitan Club is not limited exclusi ely to foreign students. American students who are interested in the advancement of the ideals of the organization are privileged to join. The membership list is constantly increasing for a real interest in this minement is being taken by many of the students. Kach meeting is given over to a program by the students who are represent- ati e of a foreign country. These banquets have been very interesting and educational to all. Dinners representative of China, Russia, Jaj)an. Mexico, Holland. (Germany, France and Amercia have all been staged with great suc- cess. .A big banquet which was reiircsentatise of all the nations was held dur- ing the third term. The President of the Club. j. C. Huang, was one of the two student speakers at the .Southe rn California Cosmopolitan Union ' s annual banquet. The banquet was held in conjunction with the .Southern California Council of Inter- national Relations. This was not imly an honor to the newly formed Club but to the College as well.

During the first term, Professor Merrill gave a series of talks on elementary aeronautics to provide th ose who had only a slight knowledge with a working start on the subject. Inspection trips to Clover Field, the Douglas Fac- tory, the flying fields at San Diego, and other places where aeronautic work is done were well attended.

A large, simply furnished design room with drafting tables, over which a dozen or so handsome engineers sprawl, drawing fine lines or the long breaths of the sleep of the weary. All is silent, save for the deep regular breathing. Miller — Yeh, Carl, you have to design the roof to screw the sky-hooks to, or the structure is statically indeterminate. Carl — Applesauce ! hy, I once saw a ten-story office building in San Diego — Aliller — But this is a warehouse to store prunes in. Alderman — A Native Son Convention hall, eh? Foster — Bum joke.

II Eorty Years Later National Convention of the A. S. C. E. — Committee meeting. A group of elderly and eminent engineers in solemn session. They are old friends united for the first time since 1925. Mr. Miller — Yes, gentlemen, although my eminent contemporary disagrees with me, I contend that a roof must be designed to screw the sky-hooks to, or else the structure is statically indeterminate. Second eminent authority — I beg to disagree with my learned friend and life-long ac(|uaintance. I have here the designs of a 77-story office building in San Diego — Mr. Miller, impatienth ' — Granted — but 1 wish to remind my friend Carl that this is a warehouse to store prunes in. Mr. H.

ARIZ.— May 30, 1925 (By hot wire). The [lolitical element of this fair town has been thrown into seething turmoil by the announcement that Wild Several-Gun Bailey, R. O. T. C. terror of Twin- Tornado Township and all adjacent territory, has, under pressure of his friends, consented to be a candidate for sheriff on the reform ticket for Howling Gulch. He threw his stetson into the rirg early this afternoon and by three p. m. three candidates of the opposition were suicides. Wild Bill first achieved notoriety during the Philippine Camjiaign when he took, single-handed, the impregnable stronghold of Arena Tnrillo and i)ut tlie sur i ors to death with tabasco. Later he saw service under Wildcat Kramer, Lt., C. of E., late of Caltech., and during that time successfully mapped the fastnesses of Darkest Oak Knoll, receiving for his exploit from the Sultan of San Marino the Order of Third Horseman of the Ap])lesauce, Grade-A, Certified. Lt. Kramer, upon inter iew, expressed his gratification at the news. Bill, he stated, is the man for the job. I have an international reputation for terse pyrotechnic comment and commanding air, but I owe my success and fame to my old teacher, Sergeant Bailey, my friend and severest critic. The iron man of the Army turned away and swe])t a large team of emotion from his browned cheek with a handful of steel wool. Ujion interview the popular candidate .stated his views. My platform? We don ' t use ' em. Lumber ' s too expensive for scaffolds. We just string ' em up from telephone i oles. Oh, I see — you mean my campaign slogan, it ' s for reform — ' A Hanging a Day Keeps the Bad Men Away. ' At this point Several-Gun Bailey took a sighting shot at a frosh straying across the campus. The fresh was wrapped up in the Dorm ■elcome mat and buried at once, with military honors and a 4 in the course. XOTE — The accompanying picture and insert were dispatched by Toothpix Telepathic Transmittal Process over high-tension, for exclusive rights of this publication. Mr. Bailey kindly consented to pose in characteristic attitude with a favorite Camel Maduro. He is of a genial personality and loves children and fresh freshmen. t ' a ' ii hundred thiily-thrce A SIMPLE STORY A ])iercing wail and a low moan cut the surrounding gloom like a knife. In the near-distance a ray of light from a 16 candle-power, carbon-filament, 42 B. C, light bulb broke through the murky haze of the indigo-tinted interior and relieved the drab monotony of the scene. On a couch which faced the synthetic insou- ciance of a pseudo-fireplace two figures could tie faintly discerned, huddled to- gether and seeming like one in the dusk-light. Suddenly one of the figures arose and walked over to what appeared to be a safe hidden in one of the dark recesses of the room. She, for it was the figure of a young and sprightly girl which passed between us and the light, turned a few dials. The moaning and wailing ceased. She returned to the couch and the two figures once more merged into one. A low sigh escaped from her lips. She smoothed his sleek-looking hair tenderly. He moved restlessly and yawned — ap[)arently bored. He lay snuggled in her arms, obviously asleep. She did not seem to care. Her thoughts wan- dered. She thought of the immutableness of the immutal)le but her mind failed to grasp the vastness of an immeasurable infinity and she began to contemplate the desirability of more mundane ambitions. He stirred in her arms. She gazed adoringly upon him, impulsively, she kissed him on the forehead. This evidently awakened him. More than that, it seemed to arouse his passion. He tried to bite her. This, she felt, was going entirely too far. He was evidently capable of taking advantage of her momentary, impulsive, naive, show of sentiment, .She rebuked him. He persisted. This was indeed too much. Grasping him bv the back of the neck, she took him to the door and turned him out into the cold cruel world. Tliese poodle dogs are treacherous little rascals. .• friend of ours, in a hurry to dis])ose of some home brew, jjoured it into the goldfish bowl and departed through the back window before the dry agents forced the front door. He escaped. hen he returred he found that the fish had eaten their way through the bowl, killed the cat, overturned the kitchen stove, and were engaged in polishing off the family bulldog. HIS rORV AS IT IS Xt: KR TAUGHT Xo costly clolh-of-gold tapestries adorned walls. Nought covered the floor save a little straw and the slightl - flat feet of the concave-witted Inquisitor, i ' icking u]) a conveniently located skull, this black robed figure threw it vigorously into the pile of straw in the corner. Sleeiiily Joan arose, an expression of bored saintli- ness in her eyes. Arise, loan, the stake awaits witlmut , thundered the blood- bedrizzled one with evident relish. Joan lirightened at once, hissing. itlmut what? Without onions , cynically spake the stalwar t man of God. and crawled, reeking, from the room. tn ' o hundred thirty-four NEW YORK TO BE SCENE OF PREMIER SHOWING Scene from Doraldina. No! Poppa says we can ' t come out! The superstrata of the film world are all agog over the announcement that the new photodrama Doraldnia will ha e it ' s initial showing at the Hip[)opolitan, in Xew York City, on Julv 1. Unquestionably this is the most powerful picture ever attempted and to the Metroflam-Woozyversal goes the credit for the achievement. Of greatest interest, however, is the aggregation of stars gathered to enact the difficult roles. Most notable is Mr. Alfred Xewton. author, philosopher, engineer, political economist, politician, art lover, i)Iaywright and producer of the famous Campus Cuties Chorus. Among others supjjorting him in the stellar role are Miss Vera Pfander, as Throoi ita. the financier ' s secretary. Helen Pfusch, as Technita. the flai)per, and Katherine Lathro]) as Katinka, the Smiling Maid. Tlie plot revokes about a Y. M. C. A. secretary sorting mail, a wrong telei)hone number, and love under a Spanish moon. Bull fight scenes enliven the continuity. Mr. Newton, who possesses emotional ajipeal to no mean value, plays the moving part of Alfreddio, the cavalier from Venice (of America). ALL was prepared in the temple. The priest stood with upraised arms and the populace lay prostrate on the floor while thin streams of golden sun- light intensified the gloomy interior of the massive edifice. Suddenly a blinding flash appeared accompanied by a loud peal of thunder and lo ! there stood the great god Izehouz in all his splendor. And he raised his hand to en- join silence, but there came the small tinkling of a bell without — without what? — without apparent cause. And the priest emitted a nervo us laugh as he said, I really must be leaving now: my wife calls me . Then he took his departure and his umbrella and left. firo hundred thirty-five Pa 36 . -Jt i LH.

You ha ' e learned much, young men. in these crowded years which have just rolled by. You are courageous, you are able. You are powerful and mighty, lords of your Campus — you admit that. But before 3-ou leave, ponder, gentlemen, and think, before, years from now, it is your time to become Seniors of the Morrow. In Kipling ' s words : Be humble, oh my people. .And herewith, to dri e it home, are the wails of an outraged sopomore : Just who is this whole-hearted lad that claims that the grand old class of 1925 is about to jump into the order of grads and leave the school in the flat-tire class? From about the first of April until the guys who has their names in the faculty section of the catalog begin to plan their little blessings to he mangled by the blue books, every brow in the lot collects wrinkles big enough to be due to income taxes. The youths about to don the plaster board and apron flubb arouna tne campus taking a last look at the dear old landmarks that they have helped to bust and put together again. For four years they have mes.sed up the plans of some class and what the heck is the old Alma Mater going to do for a steering wheel in the future. Rome fell and now it looks like dusky days ahead for the joint, at least to hear them eggy Seniors lay on the bolony. If it wasn ' t that all the Juniors wear corduroy pants a foreigner might think there was a double load of Seniors. These last-mentioned like to explain their general .skinniness by saying. Yes, brother, us Juniors lugs a heavy jug of responsibilitv. Them dumb Seniors would of had the school on the rocks in two weeks if we hadn ' t been around to grab the wheel. And Blood and Thunder, them red lumber jacks couldn ' t have held down ten Frosh without us boys around to say the last word. Hot cow, now comes the bozos as claims they has the real kick coming. Them lads, the Sops, has got to watch a flock of Frosh that would have made .Adam throw the apple clean over the fence if he could have seen what was coming. Besides they has them high-hat Juniors to fuss with or they ' d get the Frosh to feeling like the cat ' s nippers, dang a Junior anyhow. If the Seniors and them aforesaid critters was to get on their mule and do a little work the Sophs say as how they could study a little instead of running the Student Body. The Frosh has got their young bright faces turned toward the horizon of success and don ' t see what goes on around them until they has flunked out or won a travel prize. ( ' atts to Azusa. ) I sees by the evening paper where some guy has collected a lot of names of colleges as has been going for some time. This guy claims as how there ' s been some high-powered boys turned out by these places and so I figure that no matter how much a class worries or whoops around that it is going to tear over the top with some dang goods grads. Be Tolerant two hundred thirl v-scven AIX ' T IT THE TRUTH Miat do I miss since I graduated from old Caltech ? Let ' s see : Frosh chemistry- — be yourself! Assembly — pass it by. Perhaps the Dorm, ah. yes of course — I cannot tell a lie. The scuds we used to throw — well, yes. They surely were some fun. I like the Tech with its news and verse from H. Fred Peterson. I miss the book stores methods, weird and strange ; the profs and Van B ' s slips — examinations, eliminations and traveling scholarships. There are lots of things to leave behind e ' re I part for the Happy Isle. I ' ll remember best, and miss the most — Katherine ' s famous smile. ONE ACT PLAY Cover me with paving blocks.

A RUSSIAN ROMAXSKY Ivan Moranskovitch and Olga Petrogradski were sitting out a dance — sitting it out under the winter skies. .Around them stretched the vast plain of Russia — stretched ' till it cracked or ])erhaps it was only sna])ping with the cold. The wind howled and so did the wolves; the only difference was that the wind bit the arms and legs of han and )lga while the wohes only wished to do so. Suddenly Olga sneezed. W ' hatski? he queried. The wind is getting freshowich. he ;uiswered. Shall we go back in to the danski? he asked. No, she said, I despise the fox trotsky. Around them the wind raxed :uid so !id the wolves. Again Olga sneezed. Yes, he answered, what ' s wrongawich? Oh, the cold is cree])ing u my legski, she shivered. I hate cree])ing things ! said Ivan savagely, shall we go inski ? Yes, she replied. I ' m afraid I ' ll cauh my death of cold sitting out on these cold Steppes. —ZIffs. tzvo Inindrcd Ihirty-c ' ujlit IXSUFFICIKXT STATIC Radiola Van Bla Bla, Technita ' s short-circuit sister, says this radio age is excruciatingly fascinating, and that she is so interested. She has a three-stage hippodrome set, so-called, she says, because you can get three places on it at one time. She says she wants to buy a Robert ' s hook-up to keep the antenna from sagging when the heavy notes come from Phil Harmonic ' s Orchestra playing at the Cocoanut Orchard. It ' s something like sky-hooks, she thinks. She can get distance, too, she says. Right in Altadena, think of it, she heard Ray ' est ' s orchestra from Egy]it; Alexandria — they said so. She says Aunt Enna, inventress of the aerial clothes line, is Uncle John ' s sister, and she intends to get a bottle of neutrcdyne for her hair. These ether waves are harder on it than marcels. ' atts, the things that run around in the tubes, are so named for station P. E. Ry. She ' s goirg to liuv some audio-transformer, which is a new kind of beauty clav to make you young o er night. As soon as she gets her new set she thinks she can hook up with the Edison lines and get Big Creek, which has a very powerful station. We hope she does.

Lady ! How they had blos- somed forth — so I immediately excited a crush on a returned co-ed and Edna and I dashed forth nocturally. She was my pardner on all occasions. Then one night some duke from a nearby village crashed the sequence. Angrily I called another number, Helen ' s. Helen was Edna ' s chum and I thot a little of the greeneyed monster might cause the maiden to ponder. After I ' d been there an hour I decided I was glad I ' d come — she wasn ' t exactly the kind of maiden who had to join the Y. C. A. to get a social side to her college life. But, Swearword ! the next night ex- Edna actly the same answer from Edna but more of the old horse-shoe luck with Helen. During the evening the original woman was as forgotten as a just-emptied Scotch bottle and then I found how bleak my past life had been. Icebergs, .llaskan scenes, stonn-tossed shores of Maine etc. — OWTA ' ER, true love runs like a 1912 Ford and the next night it hit a chuck-hole. Xo. Helen has an engagement and she beat me to hanging up the receiver. Bernice , I said — Bernice handled the town exchange — Ring one of your good numbers for me. Presently a sweet voice tinkled in cordial greeting. I revealed my identity and we poohed the weather. Then I in- vited her to a frankfurter-frolic or some- thing. She sighed up and after a two- minute conversation on nothing, we said good-bye, her receiver clicked and I inc|uired. Well. Bernice, who is the lucky bim ?
