It is also the campus which portrays the college to the outsider, for it is the campus that makes up the tangible and physical impression of a college. V We may be particularly proud of our campus this year, as we see it brought nearer to its completed ideality through the addition of the four new buildings now in construction. Further, we note with pleasure the continuation of the much- needed landscaping, and hope that this beautification may be completed in the next few years. Finally, a very small fund has been started toward the building of a gymnasium for Tech, and we hope that this fund will grow rapidly in order that our campus may be complete. Hence, in this year of expansion, this book has as its theme and dedicates itself to our campus-a growing and a living thing. 0BEWOB Dabney Treasure Room-Strelecki C 0 N T E N T MINISTISATION FACULTY STUDENT BODY A S S E S SENIOR CLASS LOWER CLASSES G A N'I Z A T I 0 N'S QHONORARIES PROFESSIONALS AND OTHERS HLETICS A FOOTBALL BASKETBALL TRACK BASEBALL TENNIS MINOR SPORTS INTERHOUSE SPORTS U S E S BLACKER DABNEY FLEMINC RICKETTS THROOP T I V I T I E S PUBLICATIONS FINE ARTS LIFE IN Dr. Arthur A.

The school from which the California Insti- tute of Technology has grown was Throop University, established in 1891 by Amos G. Throop. In the following year it was determined to make the manual training departments the leading feature of the institution, renamed the Throop Polytech- nic Institute. Throop Polytechnic offered majors in science and the arts, was co- educational. Enrollment increased to 620 in 1907. The school was located on Chester Street, between Fair Oaks and Raymond, where some of the buildings still stand today. In 1908, it was decided to revise and limit the curriculum to departments of Electrical, Mechanical, and Civil Engineer- ing. In the following year the newly elected President, Dr. James A. B. Scherer, and Dr. George E. Hale toured America and Europe to gather the best educational prece- dent for the new conception of the Throop Polytechnic Institute. The Institute was transferred to the pres- ent campus in 1910, with an enrollment of thirty-four men, utilizing the just dedicated Pasadena Hall, the building now known as Throop Hall.

Athenaeum-Szrele FACULTY Robert Andrew Millikan Chairman of the Executive Council Members : Allan C. Balch Harvey S. Mudd George E. Hale William B. Munro Max Mason Henry M. Robinson Thomas H. Morgan Richard C. Tolman Edward C. Barrett, Secretary In the Executive Council 1-est the administrative policies of the Institute as related to internal alfairs, such as the determination of educational policies. The Council is composed partly of members of the faculty, and partly of members of the Board of Trustees. In the Board of Trustees rests the manage- ment of the lnstitute's external affairs, particularly in the matter of finances. The Board is matte up of promi- nent business men of Southern Calif ornia. Both grottps operating very effectively combine to form a manage- ment working toward the continued progress of the Institute. The Board of Trustees deserves a great deal of credit for the growth of the Institute over the last twenty-live years. Its members have, for the most part, been on the Board a number of years and have all devoted their services to building up the Institute. The Institute as it stands today is the result of their fine work. Their poli- cies in raising money for the purposes of expansion have been very successful, and the funds have been well utilized. Through the guidance of the Executive Council the California Institute of Technology has been made a first-rank science and engineering school. Its educational policies are second to none and have brought Caltech much of its fame. This is particularly true of their wise provision in requiring study in the humanities of all students. Dr. Millikan as its Chairntan is the head of the Institute. Another group that deserves our mention and thanks is the California Institute Associates, 'aa group of public- spirited citizens interested in the advancement of learn- ing . . . an organization for the purpose of promoting the interests of the California Institute of Technology. They have earned our sincere thanks. In the l1dlllilliStl'3ti0ll of the Institute there are vitally concerned, besides Executive Council Chairman Dr. Millikan, the following men: The President of the Board of Trustees of the Insti- tute is Mr. Allan C. Balch, who, with Mrs. Balch, gave the Athenaeum to the Institute and has otherwise shown his interest and willingness to serve. Dr. Richard Chace Tolman is the Dean of the gradu- ate school and plays an important part in the work on the campus. I-Ie is also a member of the Executive Council and an outstanding man in the field of Physical Chemistry and Mathematical Physics. Col. Frederic W. Hinrichs, Jr., is Dean of Upper Classmen and Professor of Mechanics. He is a graduate of West Point and known for his stern military ways. Though greeted by a loud f'Come inln the student who calls on him at his office knows that he will receive a generous amount of help and sympathetic advice. The Freshman's friend is Dr. John R. Macarthur, the Dean of Freshmen and Professor of Languages. He knows the name of every Freshman at the end of the first two weeks of school. In giving the Freshmen history lectures, he keeps tired students awake by calling out their names frequently. The finances of the Institute are managed by Mr. Ed- ward C. Barrett, Comptroller. Due to his wise manage- ment and decisions, the Institute has managed to stay out of the red during the last few trying years. He has been here since 1911. The difficult task of managing the Registrar's office belongs to Mr. Philip S. Fogg, Registrar and Assistant Professor of Economics. Mr. Fogg, graduate of the Harvard Business School, in the last two years has greatly increased the efficiency of the Registraris office. Richard C. Tolman Allan C. Balch John R. Macarthur Frederic W. Hinrichs, Jr Philip S. Fogg Edward C. Barrett 15 Physics Professors-back row: Keutner, Goetz, Nelier, C. Ander- son Slllylllt Lauritsen, Bowen, Houstong front row: Watson, Epstein Tolman. Both the Ph y S i 0 S department and the Institute have been greatly honored by the presentation of the Nobel Prize to Dr. Carl Anderson this year. Winning the award for his discovery of the positron, Dr. Anderson duly confirms his position in the ranks of the famous men composing the personnel of the Physics department. This group, headed by Dr. Millikan, in- cludes such men as Drs. Tolman, Epstein, Goetz and Zwicky, as well as many promi- nent young scientists and visiting profes- sors. By their fine work, these men have assisted greatly in focussing the eyes of the scientific world upon Caltech. Dr. Millikan, Dr. Pickering, Dr. Neher and many others here have devoted much time to research on cosmic rays, which are interesting scientists the world over. The Mathem atics faculty carries on numerous works besides the providing of adequate instruction in cal- culus and analytical geometry to Freshmen and Sophomores. Dr. E. T. Bell has just added to his long list of books published The Hamlmaizlen of the Sciences, a book which has aroused great public interest in modern higher mathematics. Working hand in hand with other departments, numerous applications of mathematics in physical, electrical and aerodynamic problems have been made, often greatly facilitating the technical research work. Kellogg Il3llli3lIi0ll Laboratory has been the scene of much important nuclear research leading to advanced re- finement in the comprehension of atomic problems. Also, the million-volt X-ray tube has been used continually to investigate the therapeutic values ol' X-rays. The co-opera- tion of local hospitals has made possible this latter work, which is under the direc- tion of Drs. Mudd, Emery, Stewart-Harri- son and Levi. Mathematics Profcssors-Michal, Van Buskirk, li, Bell, Birchby, Bateman. Electrical Engineering is booming-that is, if Hbooming means jobs for all students. Advanced men are finding it expedient to finish the work required for the master's and doctor's degrees as quickly as possible in order that the good positions going by can be grabbed before they get completely out of sight. This situation to some extent has slowed down research work because of reduced per- sonnel, but during the past year, several interesting papers have been presented by electrical engineering students, the most notable of which were papers by lVlcRae, Pipes and Ramo. Some of the more impor- tant of the researches being conducted re- cently are those on the non-arcing sphere gap voltmeter, the cathode ray oscillograph, the more accurate measurement of surge voltages, short-wave radio communication, the theory and development of electric switches, and the study of arcs between contacts. Electrical Engineering Professors-Sorensen, Lindvall, Mackeown, Maxstadt. Chemistry Professors-back row: Lucas, Beckman Sage Bates J. Bell, Yostg front row: Dickinson, Pauling, Lacey The C.l.T. Clll!lIliS1Zl'y and Chemi- cal Engineering Division suffered the loss by death, on June 3, l936, of Professor Arthur Amos Noyes, its revered leader throughout a period of over twenty years. During the past year, the teaching and re- search activities of the department have been continued on the high level to which they were brought by Dr. Noyes. Of the many researches under way, there may be mentioned the interesting series on the thermodynamic properties of hydro- carbons under the direction of Drs. Lacey and Sage, the study of plant hormones under Drs. Lucas, Koepili and English, the photo- chemical and spectroscopic studies by Drs. Dickinson and Badger, the work of Dr. Yost in the field of inorganic chemistry, and the work of Dr. Pauling fnew director of the laboratoriesj and others on the struc- ture of the molecule. Facilities will be greatly increased by the new building. Biolo W l rofcssors-standing: Emerson, Bonner, Sturtevanl, Wiersma, ian Overbulx van Harrcveld, Morgang sealed: Borsook, Went, Growth of lfilllllgy division in- terests to include many branches of related investigation has been influenced greatly by Dr. Thomas Hunt Morgan, head of the department and one of the three Nobel Prize winners on the campus. Biologists can be quite proud of the active interest taken in teaching by the faculty of Kerck- hoff, noted for having one of the most up- to-date courses of study at the Institute. In the field of genetics, much work has been done under Dr. Morgan's direction. Drs. Sturtevant, Dobzhansky and Bridges have done outstanding work in this field. Dr. Borsook has done much in the realm of animal physiology. The Marine Laboratory at Corona Del Mar houses other important workg and the new building will afford badly needed additional space on the campus. Civil Engineering re- search problems were influenced in the choosing by the needs of community and federal projects with which the division is co-operating. The work of' these investiga- tions is being done by graduate students or research fellows under the direction of various members of the faculty. Professor Franklin Thomas, head of the Civil Engineering Department, is chairman of a special Metropolitan Water District committeeg Professor Martel has under- taken an investigation on the analysis of earthquake forces as applied to buildings for the county Board of Supervisorsg and Professor Michael has begun experinienting on types of foundations for pavements at the request of the county Road Department. Professors Knapp and Von Karman direct studies for the Soil Conservation Service. In the 1x0l'0ll3lllti13S laboratory, staff members and graduate students are doing considerable original research in airplane design. F. J. Malina is experimenting on gaseous Civil Engineering Professors-Hinriclis. Conv: :sc Martel, Michael, Thomas. oxygen plus various hydrocarbons as rocket fuel, Lieutenants Alback and Miller, U.S.N., are using the Galcit power model to test stability and control in powered Hightg and VV. H. Bown is investigating boundary surfaces. The work in meteorology, under Dr. Krick, now includes remarkably accurate nationwide weather forecasting and train- ing of meteorologists for agencies. The radiometeorgraph, developed last year, has been greatly improved and cheapened. Mechanical Engineering professors, besides their usual classroom work, made up several committees investi- gating industrial problems. Professor Clapp heads those studying fatigue failure of drill pipe for the American Petroleum Institute. Dr. Donald S. Clark is investigating the structure of metals and alloys to determine the fundamental nature of the reaction to impact loading. Mechanical Engineering Professors- Clap p , S c c ll l e r, Daugherty, Tyson, Clark. Geology Professors-back row: Stock. Ridgway, Campbell Furlong G. Anderson, Ricllterg front row: Buwalda, Beniofl' Popcnoe Gutenberg, Fraser. Fields for G90l0gy division re- searches are numerous, particularly in the southwestern part of the United States. During the past year, the very oldest rocks in the bottom of the Grand Canyon have occupied Dr. Campbell's attention, while Dr. Buwalda, head of the department, has confined his studies to the local quad- rangle. Crustaceous marine shells from the Sacramento Valley have been the object of Dr. Popenoe's study, and Dr. Fraser has improved microscopic technic. At the Seismological Laboratory, Drs. Gutenberg and Richter have been investi- gating temblors originating five hundred miles below the crust of the earthy and Dr. Benioif has been designing and building more new types of earthquake recording instruments. The Astrophysics depart- ment is particularly busy With preparing the largest telescope and observatory. The grinding of the two-hundred-inch mirror is under the direction of Dr. ,I oh11 Andersong the erection of the observatory is supervised by Captain Clyde McDowell, U.S.N.g and Byron Hill is the civil engineer in charge of constructionf The Division of lllllllilllitilbs is one of the dis- tinctive features of the California Institute. Realizing the desirability of having greater emphasis placed upon the human- istic side of the curriculum than is common in most technical colleges, the administration has given over an ample portion of the various courses of study to this branch. In addition to their regular teaching duties, the members of the department carried on numerous outside activities. The division sponsored a series of lectures by Gilles Cuilbert of the Salzberg Mozarteum on history and philosophy of music and evolution of technique and form. In addition to this, a weekly series of non-technical lectures entitled HOutlooks in Philos- ophyi' wasidelivered by a group of distinguished professors from local colleges. Such student activities as forensics and dramatics were supervised by members of the department.

So reads Article VI, Section 1 of' the Constitution and By-Laws of the Associated Students. With prevention as one of its watchwords, this Board of Control, ably led by Student Body Vice- President Frank Jewett, passed through a most suc- cessful year. One of the policies carried out by this year's Board was the publishing of case briefs taken from past minutes. This was done with the idea of making the Student Body better acquainted with the functions of its Board of Control. Members elected from the various classes were: J ack Edwards, William Ellery and Richard Bidgway, Seniors, J ack Baker, James Balsley and Roland Stone, Juniors, J ack Osborn and Duane Beck, Sophomores, and Charles Palmer, Freshman. Robert Mahoney, President of the Corporation, was also a member. Acting in conjunction with the Board of Control is the Court of Traditions which 'Lexists to deal justly with all cases involving Freshman rules and college traditions. Those on this year's Court were: Jack Edwards, Chairman, Boland Stone, Ralph Spotts, Charles Palmer, and Frank Jewett, ex oflicio. Frank B. Jewett, Jr. Vice-President of the Associated Students Baker Balsley Beck Edwards Ellery Osborn Palmer Ridgway Stone New Officers standing: Osborn, Barry. Qoodmanson, White, cated Stone Anderson, McLean. .lohnson, Wolfberg. The New 0ffi00l'S, elected to manage and direct campus activity for the ensuing year, are: I ack McLean, Presi- dent, Roland Stone, Vice-President, ,lack Baker, Secretary, Hank Evans, Treasurer, Stanley Wolfberg, Athletic Manager, Rob- ert Barry, Publicity Manager, Evan John- son, Rally Committee Chairman, ,lack Osborn and ,lack White, Representatives-ab Large, Keith Anderson, California Tech Editor, and Lloyd Goodmanson, Yell Leader. The Editor of the Big T and Man- agers ol' both publications were elected late in the third term. These elective ollicers, with the exception of the Editors, publication Managers and Yell Leader, make up the Board of Direc- tors of the Corporation, and already they have sponsored the student-body formal at the Brentwood Country Club and have established a summer employment commit- tee composed of representative students and Dr. Donald Clark. As the Pullliftitb' Committee aims to inform an anxious public of the doings ol' Calteclfs undergraduates, the past year has seen a veritable barrage of news releases pelting the press for miles around while the students themselves were being confronted by numerous bulletin boards located in propitiously selected spots about the campus. Thereby, this committee has kept the public, uforeignw and 'gnativef' aware of what Tech is doing. Much credit is due the capable super- vision of Publicity Manager Martin Web- ster, who received assistance from Evan ,lolmson, Bob Thomas and Dick llosen- cranz. Bob Barry has taken over thc im- portant position held by Webster. Although El0I3ti0ll Committee Work is of great importance, it is often over- looked or taken for granted by many in the student body. Absolute Hdelity is neces- sary, and with innumerable interested par- ties clamoring for results, the nervous ten- sion becomes terrilic. Through it all, the committee must be content with the feeling Election Coininitleemcn- -buck row: llnlbiri.

Chairman this year has been Wendell Miller. The YCHIJS Committee, un- der the expert guidance of Hank Evans, was able to provide many colorful programs for the student assemblies, acquiring pro- fessional entertainers on several occasions. Planning Freshman assemblies, decorating the Rose Bowl, and providing send-off rallies for the football team were some of the more routine duties carried out by the committee. ' As a result of the cooperation of most of the student body, the enthusiasm during the Oxy-pajamarino reached a new high. A spectacular bonfire was followed by the traditional romp up and down Colorado Street topped off with a free show for all the pajama-clad.

Many problems confronted the group, especially those ol' freshman placement and initia- tion, the present committee worked out the details of the placement system used this year and has devised another for next year which is expected to eliminate defects of past methods. The committee was composed of the Presidents and Vice-Presidents of the houses: Price and Stone, Blackerg Bussard and Wetmore, Dabney, Edwards and Dowd, Flemingg Ridgway and Elliott, Ricketts, Pabst and Davis, Throopg Belzer, of Fleming, acted as Secretary of the com- mittee. Meetings are held every Wedlies- day noon at the Training Table in the base- ment of the Student Houses. New men have taken over the offices now and are continuing the work. The 1937 E X ll i ll i 12 Committee, u11der Chairman Elliott Bonham and Assis- tants Robert Thomas and Armand DuFresne, made the Annual Exhibit Days most enter- taining to the record crowds, estimated at twenty thousand, which thronged the cam- pus. The magnitude of the crowd and presence of six newsreel companies was due to the great public interest which was mate- rially aided by the efforts of the new pub- licity committee. As usual, the High Voltage demonstra- tion led the field in popularity, but a newcomer, the television reception, and the grinding of the 200-inch telescope mirror were close rivals. The Geology department and the Biology division featured lectures of common inter- est to the visitors, earthquakes and vita- mines being the topics of some of their respective presentations. Chemical laboratories, besides their reg- ular nose appeal, provided many of the most attractive demonstrations, giving two public lectures as well-one on photochem- istry and one on household chemistry. Exhibits of Dr. lVlill,ikan's cosmic tray apparatus and demonstration lectures on high-frequency phenomena and fidelity sound recording were featured by the Physics and Electrical Engineering depart- ments. The Civil and Mechanical Engineering divisions showed Colorado River Aqueduct movies and model oil well equipment re- spectively, besides their customary inter- esting displays.

To denote exactly the scope of the insti- tution, the Board of Trustees, by unani- mous action on April 30, 1913, changed the name of Throop Polytechnic Institute to Throop College of Technology. Significant to the growth of the College was the first association of Dr. Arthur A. Noyes as Director of Chemical Research and the construction of the first portion of Gates .Chemical Laboratory in 1916. And then came the World War. The War Department, recognizing the impor- tant services which engineers and chemists must render in the prosecution of war, designated Throop College of Technology as one of the institutions whose students may, if their work is of a satisfactory grade, be granted the privilege of enlisting in the Engineer Reserve Corps of the U. S. Army and of remaining in college for the com- pletion of their courses. On March 27, 1919, Mr. Arthur H. Fleming signified his intention to subscribe one million dollars to the College if an additional million was subscribed by other donors by the end of 1920. As a result of a quiet but effective financial campaign the institution faced the future with an endow- ment that not only enhanced but made pos- sible its tremendous growth since.

Mr. Gates was the first person to come forward, and with his brother make provision in 1916 for un adequate chem- ical laboratory commensurate with the ideals of the group of men who had by this time caught the vision of the development of a great institute of science and tech- nology on the western coast. -THE FUTURE or THE CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE or TECHNOLOGY, by Robert A. Millikan, 1936. SENIUR CLASS A Vice President Edward Wileman. Secretary Warren Fenzi, President Wendell Miller. Treasurer Alan Grobecker. Nearly four years ago fon a hot Sep- tember day, of coursej, the class of 1937 1161 strongj registered at the California lnstitute of Technology and thus came into existence. Probably less than 80 of these men are planning to march across the Cates balcony on June 11 fprobably less than one of these men will have the courage to jump over the railing on receiving his diplomaj. By the end of the first year, charter members of the class were pouring out via the back door, by the beginning of the second year, transfers were pouring in, but not so fast. Result: the class now has about 130 members. In spite of losses fone complete set of class oflicers will graduate from Stanford this yearj and changes, the class has succeeded very well scholastically and in school activities and On the llour will make its due contribution to industry, to engineering, to business, to science, and to the various schools of graduate study. The first year of the class of 1937 was an active one and one worthy of any Freshman class. Wendell Miller was ap- pointed Freshman Chairman and subse- quently re-elected President unanimously. Other ollicers were for the first term: Don Drummond, Vice-President, lilalph Benton, Secretary, Victor Zezukevitch, Treasurer. The second term saw no change except that Richard Rosencranz took over the Vice- Presiclency. The class put on a successful student body dance, inaugurating the eus- tom of having them on registration day. The Rodeo dance was particularly success- ful, held at the Civic Auditorium, the last held off campus. The class also produced the only Freshman football team that ever beat both Pomona and Oxy. It not only produced a championship swimming team, but the only swimming team at Tech in a number of years. An outstanding class assembly was planned and arranged by Walton Wickett and enjoyed by everyone. Other activities of the class were also suc- cessful, and the men had a good start on the Sophomore year. fg,.,,,,i,,,,,.,l ,,,, IM., 48 lrving L.

The class won the Rodeo from the Freshmen after a hard fight in the steam tunnels for an afternoon. The Sopho- more Student Body Dance was put on at the Annandale Country Club and was a big success. The members of the class began the very active part they have played in campus activities ol' all lines. Over half the football lettermen that year were Sopho- mores. The class assembly put on by Walton Wickett during the third term was one of the best in history and won the 3510 prize for the best assembly. For the Junior year Paul Edwards was elected President, but left for Stanford and was succeeded by Harold Sharpg Vice- President was Richard Rosencranzg Secretary, Edward Priceg Treasurer, Victor Zezukevitch, and later Warren Fenzi. Another successful year was enjoyed with the usual activities. Senior class ollicers were Wendell Miller, Presidentg Ebby Wileman, Vice-President, Warren Fenzi, Secretary, Alan Gro- becker, Treasurer. The Seniors, headed by the officers, have been very active this year. Numerous committees were ap- pointed to take care of the many little matters that confront the graduating men. The two big parties, the Prom and the Carden Party, were very well planned and quite successful. The Seniors showed their superiority and had a last good time together on their annual ditch day. A new and better class day has been planned which includes a lunch and a tour of the campus, a tea, and the traditional baseball game with the faculty. When this book comes out the Tech days of the class of 1937 will be almost over and only memories will remain. 'K-31 '1lH,Hf'-. . . , ww sw ' ww 'Wi gm? LUWEB CLASSES This Jlllli0l' CIIISS, as many another, had as its first duty the management of the Frosh-Soph Rodeo which was expanded from a mere pushball contest to a field day of four events, a tug of war, a pushball contest, a cane spree, and a tire race. The results were amusing and successful. The administration of the class was very efh- cient, and all the dues were collected. The class rings were bought this year instead of waiting until the Senior year as has been done before. The social committees of the class played their full part in arranging and planning the Junior- Senior Prom and Garden Party. Both affairs were very carefully planned and were acclaimed successes. The class set a new record politically by elect- ing eight men to the Board of Directors. An assembly was put on one Friday morning during the third term which displayed some of the members' many talents. On the program were some magic tricks by Dick Allen, piano-playing by Hank Evans, a trumpet quartet, and some of the inimitable humor of Wolfberg and David- son in an original pantomime.

Robert Wllite Carl Paul Presiclent Vice-President William Frampton Neal Thomas Secretary Treasurer The Sophomore Class, under the capable leadership of Robert White, has made its place on the Caltech campus this year. The members of the class have participated in all phases of student activity: sports, music, forensics, and journalism. The iirst big event f or the class was the Rodeo which, as usual, the Sophomores won. The Freshman defeat was attributable to the surpris- ing organization of the Sophomores. As a result of the Victory, the Sophomores were entertained by the Freshmen at the annual Rodeo dance held in Dabney lounge. One of the year's outstanding social events was the semi-formal dance given by the Sopho- mores for the student body. The attending couples enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere of the Oakmont Country Club and the music of Herb Adkins' Orchestra. The success of the dance was largely due to the efforts of William Frampton. The assembly put on by the Sophomore Class during the third term took the form of a shadow play, which appealed to those members of the student body with low and distorted senses of humor. The Freshman Class, afiel- some frantic days of registering and taking physical examinations late in September, em- barked for a three-day orientation and Mget- acquaintedi' camp in the San Bernardino moun- tains. Thus prepared, the neophytes, erstwhile Hlioaring Fortiesf' returned to Pasadena to start on the first lap of a four-year grind of studying and illusion-losing. The first catastrophe took place at the end of the first month when the Sophomores easily won the traditional Rodeo from the younger men handicapped by many forced absences. A turn- ing of the tables is planned by the class for this event next year. The Freshman class, however, regained its honor at the end of Christmas vacation by put- ting on a very enjoyable dance for the student body at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium. Sports have been very well supported by the class, and the frequent excursions to the Physics pond as well as section beach trips indicate that the class of 1940 will be able to hold up its end of the game in the future.

On September 10, 1920, after twelve years of energetic and effective service, Dr. James A. B. Scherer resigned the presi- dency of the Institute because of ill health. The Board of Trustees immediately entered into negotiations with Dr. Robert A. Milli- kan to come to the Institute on a full-time basis, and on August 1, 1921, they were able to announce his appointment as direc- tor of the Norman Bridge Laboratory of Physics and Chairman of the Executive Council of the Institutef' Thus with its greater scope defined, its potentialities backed by comparable endow- ment, and headed by an executive-scientist, the California Institute moved into its third phase of development. OLD DORMITORY C1915J The College has provided on the campus a modem dormitory, of California bungalow type, two stories in height, with large, airy, and well-lighted rooms for about sixty students-several of the rooms having sleeping porches-and with attractive dining-room, living-room, and recreation rooms. -BULLETIN or THE THRooP Cox.- Lrzcxz or TECHNOLOGY, January, 1916.

Chapter of the honorary engineering fraternity, Tau Beta Pi, is one of three in Cali- fornia and seventy in the United States. The membership is made up of those men who are in the upper one-eighth of the Junior Class or the upper one-fourth of the Senior Class, and who are considered to have had many and varying outside inter- ests and activities. This outstanding fraternity strives to obtain balanced men, and not those who have only recommendations of high scholarship. With a total membership of almost 30,000, the Tau Beta Pi plays a very important role in the social and business lives of engineers all over the country. Each year the California Beta Chapter puts on three im- portant social functions. They are two initiation banquets and a formal prom which usually comes in the early spring. This year, eleven men were initiated before the iirst banquet in December, and ten were instated during the spring initia- tions. Both banquets took place in the Athenaeum following the formal initiation in Culbertson Hall. At the first ban- quet, Mr. Hines of the Metropolitan Water District spoke on the c'Acqueduct, and at the second, General Beach, former Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army, discussed the 'GMississippi and Ohio Flood Situation. A very interesting feature of each banquet was a short twenty-minute playlet put on by the new members. These skits provided much entertainment even if they The student body ll0ll0l' Keys are given in recog- nition of distinguished and valuable service rendered to the school, and their bestowal is the highest tribute a Tech man can receive froln the student body. This year, as the culmina- tion of a growing tendency toward participation in activities, a new record number of keys was awarded. For the first time, a man received his fourth Honor Key- Wendell Miller completed his active four years and was so honored this year. Edward Price won his third consecutive key, and Robert Mahoney, Richard liidgway, Martin Webster and 4 .1 Q, y JF were booed. The Tall Beta Pi formal dance this year was declared, by all who attended, the outstanding event of the season. Soft lights, sweet music, and palms were the order of the evening. The music was provided by Bob Mohr's orchestra. The Advisory Board of the chapter consists of four members of the faculty whose duty it is to settle certain questions which always arise, and act as contacts between the students of the chapter and the faculty. The board for this year consisted of Professor Franklin Thomas, Chairman, and Professors S. Stuart Mackeown, Carl Anderson and Frederic Hinrichs. The officers of the chapter were: Munson Dowd, President, Edward Price, Vice-President, Robert C. Jones, Corresponding Secretary, LeVan Grifiis, Recording Secretary, John S. Edwards, Treas- urer, and Thomas Harper, Cataloger. Those for next year are: James Balsley, President, Harrison Lavender, Vice-President, David Sherwood, Corresponding Secretary, Orin Graybeal, Recording Secretary, William Cardwell, Treasurer, and Herbert Ellis, Cataloger. A very active period is expected next year, beginning with the fall initiation when some Seniors and not more than three Juniors will be admitted to the organization. Other members of the chapter whose pictures do not appear on these pages are Lavender and Wood. John McLean earned Il0ll0l' Keys for a second time. Others who won keys are Irving Ashkenas, Elliot Bonham, Gor- don Bussard, Thomas Davis, Charles Gates, Daniel Gerlough, Alan Grobecker, Thomas Harper, Edward Horkey, Boyd Hop- kins, George Mann, William Wetmore, Albert Zimmerman, Richard Allen, John Baker, James Balsley, Bruce Elliott, Her- bert Ellis, Lowell Hulbirt, Frank Jewett, Evan Johnson, David Luckenbill, Alton Pabst, William Ropp, Richard Rowell, Paul Siechert, Roland Stone, Bob Thomas, Stan Wolfberg, Delos Flint, Duane Beck, Jack Osborn, Ray Richards and Neal Thomas.

Caltech's Beavers, an honorary service organization, has completed its sec- ond successful year on the campus. Al- though it does not publicize its actions, the Beaver Club is a group of fifty men active and interested in doing all within its power for the good of the Caltech stu- dent body. Those who attended any football or bas- ketball games may have noticed that the Engineers' attendance was always high. This in large part was due to the Beavers, who made posters, supported Student As- sembly rallies, and personally promoted interest in athletics. The big activity of the year was the Oxy bonfire-pajamarino, arranged in conjunction with the rally com- mittee. This event consisted of a barbecue in Tournament Park, rally at the bonfire with songs and yells, pajama parade through Pasadena, and a free show. The idea was very popular and will be continued. The officers were: Wendell Miller, Presi- dent, Al Pabst, Vice-Presidentg and Dick Ridgway, Secretary-Treasurer. They have endeavored to build the Beavers into an organization that can really give the stu- dent body somc material returns in the way of an increased school spirit. Promoting friendly relations with other colleges, and seeing to it that all possible courtesies are extended to visitors are still other functions of the club.

Seven- teen years ago, this was probably the most important organization on the campus. lts functions included handling all Tech pins, belt buckles and other jewelry, awarding letters and sweaters, and determining the school's athletic policy. Since time has placed all this in other hands, this year found the group investigating the reason for its existence. As a result, a new constitution was adopted which presents Between Halves the Varsity Club an. swer to its own questionings--the aim set forth in that document is to form a closely knit group which offers to men of athletic ability and interest an opportunity to meet socially, and which pledges itself to further athletics at Tech by arousing general stu- dent interest. The highlight of the year was the an- nual snow trip. This trip served not only as an outing but as an ideal opportunity to initiate the new members. In the spring, athletic events such as boxing and wrestling ware attended en masse frequently. From all appearances, the Varsity Club is regain- ing much of its former importance. The officers for the year were: Albert Zimmerman, Presidentg William Wetmore, Vice-President, and J ack Baker, Secretary- Treasurer. Allen Bonham Fleming Grobecker Hopkins Jones Kimball Kinley Lavatelli Miller Page Park Price Richards Rollow Schaffner F. Smith P. Smith Webster Doctor Faustus Set bythe Drama Club as its chief purpose is the annual production of the spring play. This year, directors Harvey Eagleson and Roger Stanton selected '4Doctor Faustusn-the most diflicult and entertaining play yet attempted at Caltech. The production was splendidly done and well received at each of the four performances. Proceeds from the annual play are used to increase the quantity and quality of equipment available for productions in the future. This year, the money from Doctor Faustusn helped pay for a commercial type of dimmer for house lights which the members of the club had constructed. Membership in the Drama Club is extended only to men on the campus who have distinguished them- selves in some form of dramatic activity. Actors, stage-hands and electricians comprise the bulk of its number. Drs. Eagleson and Stanton are active membersg and Professor and Mrs. Graham Laing hold honorary memberships. Abandoning a long established precedent, the Drama Club plans to forego its annual banquet in order to attend some commercial theatre. Follow- ing the play, honorary keys will be presented to a select fewg new officers will be electedg and pos- sible new members will be considered. Those who led the group in ollicial capacities during the year were: Douglas Rollow, Presidentg ,lack Kinley, Vice-Presidentg and Boyd R. Hopkins, Secretary-Treasurer. Taken into Press Clllll membership are those men who have distinguished themselves in the field of journalism. Due to the limited number of members, twenty, the group has been able to main- tain its reputation as one of the outstanding hon- orary organizations on the campus. Members are chosen from the staffs of the California Tech, the Big T, and the Handbook. The second term of every year sees the tradi- tional 'cl-lot Rivetn edition of the Tech breaking over the campus like a storm. This year, the sheet was a burlesque of a popular current topics maga- zine. uSlime carried the customary infamous arti- cles in an easily recognizable new style, and received even greater plaudits than have past Press Club editions. The usual two pledge weeks were held, during each of which the neophytes wore Visors, pencils and a large red replica of the Press Club key, and were forced to pay dues in half-dollars minted in successive years. Following the second initiation, the annual ubingen featured such Main Street spots as the Burbank, King Edward's Cellar, the Paradise and a thoroughly respectable chop suey joint. Oiiiciating during the past year Were: Richard Rosencranz, President, succeeded by Robert Mahoney, Boyd Hopkins, Vice-President, after Mahoney was advanced, Thomas V Davis, Secre- tary, and Martin Webster, Treasurer. Anderson Beck Davidson Davis Elliott Farnham Fleming Hopkins Horovitz Larson Luckenhill Mahoney McClung Price Rechif Siechert Smith Van Fleet Webster So-called Hot Rivet Each year, Pi Kappa Delta admits to its membership a select group of men participating in forensics. The local branch is the California Gamma Chapter, and has honorary members in Dr. Stanton, Dr. Eagleson, Dr. Untereiner, and Dean Macarthur, former National President. Annually, in the Fall term, Pi Kappa Delta sponsors a clas- sical play. This year the play presented, HThe Persian, by Plautus, was an outstanding success. The proceeds will be used next year to send delegates to the twelfth biennial con- vention of Pi Kappa Delta. New members, selected in the middle of the third term, were subjected to a rigorous initiation week. Each pledge wore a red carnation as well as a pledge pin, made a ten-minute soap box oration in the Los Angeles Plaza before at least fifty people, and carefully kept a notebook in which his sins against the chapter and its members were recorded. A formal induction ceremony concluded the week. Allen Balsley Beavon Flint Johnson Mahoney McLean Miller Osborn Poggi Price Ridgway Stone Thomas Webster T I l .

Student Chap- ter was given an excellent start on its year's program at the first meeting, when Professor W. W. Michael outlined the bene- fits of the society. The subsequent work of the membership committee netted a rec- ord enlistment ol' forty-four members, or ninety per cent of the number eligible. During the year, Mr. A. W. Rawn pre- sented an illustrated lecture which con- cerned the drilling connected with the County outfall sewer, and Mr. Pheley spoke on the problems of extremely precise measurements. Several field trips were conducted, in- cluding a three-day tour of the Metropolitan Water District Project early in the spring vacation. In the frigid weather of January, the more hardy members of the society enjoyed a day's fun in the snow at Lake Arrowhead. Later, the A.S.C.E. co-operated with the A.S.M.E. and the A.l.E.E. in a dance in Dabney Hall, which proved a great success. Social interest was combined with technical when a group of the fellows brought girl friends with them 011 an inspection tour ol' Los Angeles Harbor by boat. The final meeting was held in May, when the Caltech Student Chapter acted as host to the Los Angeles Chapter at a dinner in Dabney Garden. The oliicers for the year were: Walter Moore, President, Warren Fenzi, Vice- President, LcVan Crifhs, Secretary, and George Dorwart, Treasurer.

T0 s shown hy a membership increase of one- quarter over last year. Leading the group during the first part of the year were: John Kinley, Chairman, August Segelhorst, Vice- Chairman, Irving Ashkenas, Secretaryg and Joseph Peterson, Treasurer. The first term program included several field trips and speeches of interest, the first of the latter being delivered hy the National President of A.S.M.E. after luncheon in the Athenaeum. The following term was largely given to preparing for Inspection Trip V f f ' W ' ' L, al iff .-Ff .. . , kk-.z take a big part in the Three-Societies dance. Also, elections were held, and the old officers gave way to Irving Ashkenas, Fred- eric Dion, Charles Clarke and Stanley Wol.fhe1'g in the order previously named. The crowning achievement came in the third term with Ralph Jones' winning the competition in the presentation of technical papers at the national convention. This marks the third successive triumph for the Institute in this event. Several field trips, including a preview of the Golden Gate Bridge, were greatly enjoyed by the dele- gates. The last main feature of the year was the highly publicized talk given by Mr. C. E. Davies, National Secretary of the A.S.M.E. His talk dealt chiefly with the steps neces- sary f or the raising of engineering to a true profession.

First in A. I. E. E. activities should be placed the national convention which was held at the Huntington Hotel June 22 through 26. Although this meeting was staged during the summer vacation, quite a number of students attended and took part in the activities which consisted of technical papers, inspection trips, and a social program. This was the first time for the national convention to be held on the Pacific Coast. Altogether this was a very full year for the students. The inspection trips taken by members during the year included visits to Sterling Electric Motors Company, Mc- Gregor and Sollie Sound Studios, American Record Company, Southern California Telephone Company, Southern California Edison and Miller Coil Companies, and Radio Station KFI. Outside speakers were obtained in Lloyd Hunt of the Edison Company and Mr. Gilbert ol' Pasadena Utilities. Professors Gilbert and Sorensen, and Allan Bate also spoke. On April 13, the annual joint meeting of the Los Angeles section with the U.S.C. and C.I.T. student branches was held in the Athenaeum, with Bruce Morgan, Dan Gerlougll and E. F.. Simmons representing Tech by the presentation ol' papers. The officers of the A.l.lf.E. for the past school year were: Wasson W.

A varied program of meetings and in- spection trips made this year's Chemistry Club program of widespread interest and value to its members. The regular Friday meetings have been addressed by men from various industries as well as from the Institute. Twice dur- ing the year, the club was able to present motion pictures of chemical projects. Other meetings of general interest included a demonstration of glass blowing technique, and a talk about 4'Patents by Mr. A. W. Knight of the class of '24, At the annual dinner meeting given by Photocliemistry Exhibit the Chemistry Club, Dr. C. G. Church of the Department of Agricul- ture spoke on the government's activities in the field of food chemistry. With the industrial chemistry class, club members made an overnight inspection trip to Trona to examine the potash and borax plant for which the town is famous. Other industrial projects visited this year include plants for refining sugar, hydrogenating oils, recovering waste paper, and refining petroleum. The chemistry division of the exhibit day program was organized and directed by the Chem Club. Lectures and demonstra- tions in all departments were both instruc- tive and interesting to the general public. Contributing much to the success of the year's program were: Bruce Dunbar, Presi- dent, Williaiii Yale and Robert Custer, Vice-Presidents, George Horne, Secretary, and Noah Anderson, Treasurer. Y. M.

A. closes its year with a definite feeling of accomplish- ment, for, in addition to considerable ex- pansion of its services, the year was capped with the announcement that ,lohn Price, a Yale Divinity School student, was to be- come full-time secretary of the campus MY. At the beginning of this year, the 'LYN introduced 140 Freshmen to the traditions and opportunities of Caltech at the two-day Frosh camp session in the San Bernardino Mountains. Services rendered during the year in- cluded a used-book exchange, an employ- ment committee, a small loan fund, and forum luncheons for all interested. Dr. Mendenhall, of Whittier College, spoke 011 a peace theme, and Dr. Popenoe, noted authority, gave talks on social hygiene. Ollicers for the year were: Franklin Page, President, who has been re-elected, Richard Allen Vice-President' Edwin 7 7 Sullivan Secretar ' and Ste Jhen Clark and 1 yv l Norman ilifimpress, Treasurers. In addition to those already mentioned there are numerous organizations on the campus which go toward making Tech the complex whole that it is. Among these the Newman Club has been very active. This is a group ol' Cath- olic students who hold meetings occasion- ally for discussions with outside speakers. The members have prohted greatly by these meetings. The Episcopalian Group also brings together the members ol' a church on the campus. lts activities are quite similar to those of the Newman Club. A Chess Club holds frequent meetings in the form of chess games between its members. Several members ol' the laeulty play excellent games. The Geo-Paleo Club meets once a week :lor the discussion of new finds in that Held by the students majoring in the geology courses. The Aero Club's chief activity is the flying ol' a glider which the group possesses. This gives the future aeronautical engineers some practical experience. Caltech's Educational Policies . The educational policies of the Califor- nia lnstitute of Technology were well syn- opsised in 1922 as follows: It is the express policy of the Trustees and the Faculty, while providing for extensive scientific researches of the greatest impor- tance, to continue thorough courses in engineering and pure science, basing the work of these courses on exceptionally strong instruction in the fundamental sciences of Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry, broadening and enriching the curriculum by a liberal amount of instruc- tion in such general subjects as English, History, and Economics, and vitalizing all the work of the Institute by the infusion in generous measure of the spirit of research? It was in 1908 that Dr. George E. Hale, of the Board of Trustees, in discussing the educational policies of Throop College, spoke as follows: No great work, whether in -engineering or art, in literature or sci- ence, has ever been the work of a man devoid of the imaginative faculty. ln seek- ing to develop this school, therefore, let us not forget that our prime object should be to graduate men capable of conceiving vast projects, not less men whose abilities are limited to the power of executing them. The educational policies of the Califor- nia lnstitute of Technology stand today, in their excellence, genuine tributes to the farseeing vision of their moulders of yesteryear.

Concerning P.E .... This squib is an elucidation of the terms P. E., and Athletics. As an introduction, I will cite the following occurrence: A student came into my oiiice near the close of the term and said he had done no P. E. because his parents objected to his going into athletics. I explained to him that P. E. has nothing to do with Athletics and that he had just six days left to get busy and do thirty hours of P. E.-Wallc around the table ten times before he sat down to eat, pull weeds for the N.Y.A., turn oii and on the faucets in the hydraulics ulabi'-do something, but do it quick. Now by way of elucidation-P. E. has a higher rating than Athletics, being required for graduation, but not high enough to get a grade to help the student graduate. With P. E. a student can graduate cum laude non compos mentis. But with Athletics, a student may not graduate at all. P. E. has the official approval of the faculty but Athletics has the offensive approval of the coaches. Students, in deciding Whether to jeopardize their future by choosing Athletics or to play safe with P. E., should make their decision by use of the scientific method. W. L.

The season opened ten days before regis- tration into classesg and the Beavers had little time for preparation before meeting a powerful grid machine from Loyola University. Although they scored the first touchdown, the Engineers, suffering from a lack of re- serves, went down to a 26 to 6 defeat. The wide open style of play used by the Tech- men kept the Loyolans guessing throughout the contest. The following weekend, the Tech team took on the Santa Barbara State squad at the Channel City. Demoralized by a fumble which led to a State touchdown in the open- ing minutes of play, Caltech could not rally enough to stave olf a 37 to 6 downing. The second quarter saw the Beavers showing flashes of offensive strengthg still, one touchdown was all their driving could gain. On the next Saturday, the squad lined up against the Arizona State aggregation at Tempe, Arizona. Unable to stop the scintil- lating passing attack of the Bulldogs, the Beavers were found nursing a 26-0 loss at the close of the fray. Techls only chance to score vanished when she lost the ball on a fumble near the Arizona goal, after two 415-yard runs. Getting It Away Brighter than this near goal was the bul- wark put up by the Engineers, holding the Bulldogs for downs on their own two-yard line. An encounter with the Pomona Sage- hens, first of a series of two, was held the following week in the Rose Bowl. Playing a brilliant game in a steady rain, the locals held the lead until nearly the close of the game, however, a fumble play executed by Pomona caught the Beavers off their toesg and the resulting score turned sure victory into a 13 to 9 defeat. Late in the first period, a lateral from McLean to Smith resulted in the first tallyg and later, Jack Osborn,s brilliant field goal from the thirty-yard stripe, in a steady downpour, put the Beavers in a 3 point lead. Both of the Sagehen touchdowns were spectacular long runs, each from working the fumble play already mentioned for its deadliness. After the heart-breaking defeat by Pomona, the Engineers suffered a letdowng and the San Diego Marines took them into camp by a 26 to O score. The superior man-power of the Marines gave them a defi- nite edge which increased as the game wore on and the Stantonmen wore out. Every man on the squad saw action before the final gun. After returning from the San Diego en- counter, the Techmen spent two weeks in preparation for the Occidental set-to. Al- though outweighed twenty pounds to the man, the Techsters were favored by the jimi of the odd and even year victories. Past performances during the season Interception seemed to place the two teams on about even terms 1' or the big game. However, the 7 to 7 tie in which the struggle ended does not bespeak the local squad's constant domination of the encoun- ter-the first draw match in the forty-one years of hostility between the two schools, and the first game since 1925 in which the California Institute has not emerged vic- torious on an even year. Calteclfs chance to score came inthe second period when an Oxy -fumble gave the Beavers the ball on their opponent's fifteen-yard stripe. Soon a lateral pass, Smith to McLean, carried the ball across the lineg and Osborn kicked goal togive the Engineers a 7-0 lead. ,Occidental's marker came in the third quarter, ,when Bucking tht- Oxy Line Groves Bred a 32-yard pass lo Cresse for a touchdown. The fourth quarter found Tech again in Cxy territory, hammering hard for another score, however, the Bengal line stiffened, and resisted all attempts ol' the Beavers to take the edge again. The closing game of the season was a rematch game with Pomona on the foot- hill gridiron. Leading their opponents 141-6 at the end of the first half, the downtrodden Beavers seemed destined to victory, but sheer power and sustained driving gave the Sage- hens three scores which could not be over- come by the Engineers. At the end of the game, the totals stood Completed! Plunging the Pomona Goal 26 to 14 in favor of the powerful eleven from Pomona. The first touchdown by Tech was secured on a lateral pass, Smith to McLean, and the second score came a short time later, when J ack McLean intercepted a pass and then smashed over tackle to tally on the next play. Playing their last game of collegiate foot- ball, the work of six seniors was outstand- ing. Captain Wetmore, Zimmerman, Miller, and Larson played good defensive ball in the line, while Rosencranz and Horkey per- formed creditably in the backfield. The Beaver varsity was coached again this year by Fox', Stanton, and according to his remark at the football banquet, 'cthis is the best Caltech team since 1931, when we won the championship. The annual football banquet topped off the season. On this occasion, the Wheaton trophy was presented to Jim Balsley for outstanding playing ability, sportsmanship and leadershipg Claude Brown, first-string center, was elected to Captaincy of the 1937 squad. The work of the Hscrubu team, headed by the Honorary-Captain Edgar Griswold, helped considerably in giving the varsity team the necessary practice, and among its members are rnen who should become regu- lars on next year's squad. With thirteen returning lettermen, eight of whom were on this year's first string, the prospects for the 1937 season are at least good. OH Tackle lf.

In the first encoun- ter, a game with the powerful Inglewood High eleven, the Frosh fell by a score of 32 to 6. The next game saw the Techbabes emerge the victors over Webb School in a close battle, 13 to 6. In their league games, the uPea-Greensn fared even worse, due mostly to the fact that both Oxy and Pomona had abnormally strong elevens. ln the first Pomona contest, Caltech lost by a score of 49 to 0, and the end of the Occidental game found our men on the bottom, 52 to 6. However, the Tech Frosh, with more experience, came back later to hold Pomona to the score of 20 to 6. Following the Pomona game, and coming as a tre- mendous letdown, was the rout with Redlands-56 to 0 was the score of this one. Lack of experience as usual spelled the downfall of our Frosh i11 many of the games. Size also played an important part. However, because of the able coaching of George Mellinger, former Captain of the Drake University football squad, many of the Frosh will be able to don uniforms next year, and give good account of themselves as varsity players.

Webb School gave the yearling Beavers their first setback, tripping them hard in a 28-18 encounter. This was followed by a 44-29 loss at the hands of a Chapman frosh team which dis- played unusual strength. Bright spot on the record was the 34-30 victory over the same Chapman quintet in a rematch. Fast playing and excellent shooting featured the only Tech collegiate win. Redlands trimmed the youngsters in a fast game, 44-27, and a bad slump the following week resulted in a one-sided match with Pomona-the 54-16 score favored the Sagechicks. Occidentalis classy Tiger Kittens handed the Tech frosh two defeats, the scores of which stood at 56-39 and 53-37. The last of the Oxy games closed the season with a total of three wins and six losses.

For the first four weeks of the winter term, ambitious track men were hampered by hostile weather conditions. Not only mud and rain, but also a period of extreme cold, from the native's point of view, slowed up the pre-season training. After the interclass meet, it was evident that the high jump mark would be raised steadily by Orrin Bowers, Sophomore ace, who jumped well over six feet. Captain Wilbur Snelling broke the class meet record for the quarter-mile event in 52.6. The meet with Glendale J. C., first on the calendar, resulted in a 76 to 54 defeat. With the absence of .lack McLean, Tech had to be content with seconds and thirds in the sprints. Winners in the meet were Snelling in the 440, lVIcCreery in the broad jump, Benton in the javelin, and Bowers in the high jump. Five of the previous year's records were smashed in the Pomona-Caltech Relays, resulting in the Beavers' carrying off the perpetual trophy. The Hnal score stood BBQ to Sw, favoring the Engineers. Practically every man on the squad was entered in the Long Beach A.A.U. Relays i11 order to gain experience in the stiff com- petition. The four-man mile relay team placed second to the strong California group. The 440 relay men took a thirdg and Bowers tied with three others for the high jump mark. The Beavers came back strong the follow- ing week to upset the Santa Monica J. C. aggregation, 70 lo 61. Sweeping the broad jump, pole vault and shot put, the Techmen proved their strength in the field events. Bowers Does It Again With a decided superiority in the field events, Occidental stole the show in a three-way meet with Whittier and Caltech. Orrin Bowers outdid himself this time to set his highest mark of 6' 4473 in the high jump. A tie for second in the furlong hy lVIcLean was the only other outstanding showing. Score: Oxy Slw, Whittier 56, Caltech ZKLM5 The following week, the Engineers went down to defeat at the hands of the P.J.C. squad, 7415 to 56M3. Mack Robinson, Olympic runner from P.,l.C., had it all his own way in several events. Ed Horkey stepped out by winning both hurdle races for Tech. The only restraints in the monotonous piling up of U.C.L.A. points were second places in the half and the highs taken by Springer and Horkey. Baker and Mathews ' i 4 '4 garnered first and second in the pole vaultg and Bowers won the high jump. The final score was U.C.L.A. 100, Tech 31. The strong team from Compton J.C. took the Beavers into camp the next week by a score of 75 to 56. Downing was the only winner in the track events, taking the highs in 16.4, but Caltech got firsts in all field events but the broad jump. In the final meet of the year, Techis tracksters upset all dope sheets to beat Pomona, 72 to 59. McLean and Bragg took first and second in both sprintsg and Captain Snelling won the quarter in 51.6 seconds. Austin and Baker took the discus and pole vaultg and Bowers won the high jump. lVlcCreery's broad jump of 21' 5 was best in that event. The Engineer relay team topped off the day and season with an easy victory in the finale.

Friend Baker, running the 100 in 10.5 sec. and the low sticks in 25.7 sec. shared the honor of a double win with Don Walter, who ran the high hurdles in 16.8 sec. and took the pole vault at 10' 6 . Dave Whittlesey copped the furlong in 23.2 sec., while lanky Keith Anderson turned in a time of 2:09.5 min. to win the half mile. Sullivan's leap of 5' 8 was enough to win the high jump. Pomona, however, swept the field events, except for a few second and third places, to take the meet by a score of 74 to 56. The cross-country training of Anderson, Grigg, Hankey, Loefller, and Nlarriott stood them in good stead during the Oxy meet when they piled up 20 of Techis 4-ZW points in the dis- tance runs. However, Hedges of Oxy took four firsts to put Oxy on top.

Widi eight returning lettermen backed by a squad of about twenty other men, the prospects for a good baseball season were very good. Practice games began March 10, and included contests with Chapman, Woodbury, Pomona J.C., Glendale J.C., Pasadena ,l.C., Citrus ,l.C., and Fullerton .1 .C. Occidental was the first league opponent. On April 3, the Tigers Won when their chucker struck out twenty men, allowing two hits, and their batters whacked Captain George Dorwart's olferings for extra base hits. Santa Monica ,l.C., although not in the conference, was the next Saturday rival, winning 11-5 over the locals. The third week-end saw the sensational game of the year played at Redlands. Both Dorwart and Blaisdell, Bulldog hurler, pitched the entire twelve-inning game to a 5-3 Tech victory. Schuman and Levet starred at the plate. At Pomona College the following week, Caltech's ball club got an early leadg but in the seventh frame Captain Dorwart was knocked out of the box by Pomona batters and was replaced by Dan Schuman. In this inning the Pomonans tallied seven runs. In the ninth, two Pomona men reached home on errors to take the contest 11 to 10. A week later Chapman College pantliers defeated Tech 5 to 3. Although Dorwart pitched one of his best games this season, striking out ten men, the opposing hurler proved too good. On May 4, Tech met Oxy for the second time. Captain Lyons, pitching for Occi- dental, climaxed his career by hurling a no-hit, no-run game, striking out 19 men and turning in a 11 to 0 victory. The final game of the season was played at Paddock Field on May 8. After a close game, Pomona nosed out a 5 to 4 win, their second, one-run margin over the Beaver nine.

Their lack of practice and inexperience showed up in the Webb game, first on the schedule, when the Beavers lost by a 25 to 11 score. Ten runs were scored in the first inning by Webb, due to an abundance of Engineer errors. Pomona followed the next week, but their team was turned back by a determined nine of peagreeners, and the tilt ended with the scoreboard 10 to 9 in favor of the Techmen. The game was hard played, and victory wasn't certain until the end. Occidental's freshman horsehiders took the locals into camp the next week, however, to the score of 16 to 8. Two innings full of errors gave the Cubs the chance they were waiting for, and they capitalized on each mistake. The final game of the season, a rematch with the Pomona Sagechix, ended in a 5-4 victory for Pomona. With Pomona one run ahead throughout, a last minute run tied the score in the ninth. Pomona rallied, however, to bring across the winning run in the latter half of the tenth. .

Extremely fortunate were the Beavers i11 securing as coach Dr. Henry Hoit, one of Pasadena's keenest tennis enthusiasts and an expert player in his own right. Under a new pol- icy, compulsory practices were held at scheduled hours four days of the week. The lineup for the majority of the season consisted of Captain Tom Harper, Sam Keller, Munson Dowd, Cordon Bussard, Blaine Dixon, Gerald Levin, Lowell Hulbirt, Bruce Elliott and Howard Craft playing in that order. In the doubles, Harper and Dowd filled the first spot, fol- lowed by Hulbirt and Keller, with Bussard and Dixon in third position. The team has met with success in a good share of its encounters to date, its record being marred only by a lil'-1 loss to U.C.L.A. and two setbacks, 8-l, and 5-2, at the hands of the strong Redlands outfit- the latter contests were very much closer than the score indicates. Victims included: Pomona, 5-4-g Oxy, 7-2, Pomona J. C., 9-0, and Santa Monica J. C., 6-3. With the hardest part of the schedule over, the lCillll,S percentage should improve greatly during the latter part of the season. Captain Harper, thrice winner ol' the school championship and playing his final season for Tech, has suffered but one loss thus far in competition, a close defeat which was erased by a later victory. Harper, Keller and Dowd will represent Caltech in the Pacific Coast Championships at Ojai this year, and are conceded a chance of surprising some of their more highly rated opponents.

This year's Fl'0Sll Tennis team emerged un- defeated from its stiif schedule of inter-collegiate competition, exhibiting one of the strongest arrays of talent in recent years. The lineup consisted of Marshal Brooks, Fred Brunner, Frank Skalecky, John Harper, Bandlow Smith, and LeRoy Kemp, handling the singles in the order named, Brooks and Brunner, Skalecky and Harper, and Smith and Kemp pairing off for the doubles. A clean sweep against the Loyola netmen, followed by deci- sive victories over Redlands, Pomona and Occidental proved that the Beaverbabes had a powerful unit of racket-wielders. No reflection on the caliber of the freshmen was their lone setback of the season against a strong Montebello High School squad. The invaders boasted a list of star players headed by ,lack Kramer, National Boys Champion, and their team ulti- mately triumphed in Southern California competition. While other colleges boasted of one or two good players, none of them had a six-man team of such all-around strength as this year's Caltech aggregation. Fred Brunner, second singles man, was elected Captain of the team at the close of the season.

The Cross-country squads, with one of the largest turnouts for both frosh and varsity ever recorded, finished a most successful season by winning both of the trophies at the annual Pomona invita- tional run. This was the first time in the history of Tech teams that both trophies had returned from this meet. Stan Voorhees and Carter Lowell garnered individual medals for lhird and fourth placesg and Bob Crigg, ol' the undefeated yearlings, took a fourth place medal. Dual meets were held during the season with P.,l.C., U.C.L.A. and Redlands. Al,- 'tliough the varsity squad did 11ot fare so well in these contests, the freshmen man- aged to place well up near the top, even defeating a Redlands team made up of Bulldog frosh and second-string varsity. Again this year the runners held a ban- quet at the close of the season, to celebrate their success and promote a spirit ol' good fellowship for the coming season. For next year, the teams hope to have a special course laid out accurately in the loothilils by the civil engineering students.

The P.A.C. rugby squad, as it is called, is peculiarly organized, in that, composed chiefly of Techmen, it derives its existence and membership in the Southern California Rugby Union from the Pasadena Athletic Club. Bill Vlletmore of Caltech was Captain ol' this year's team, which was managed by Harcourt Bull ol' the P.A.C. The season, although interesting and valuable, cannot be called successful, as the Prosser Cup Series Championship which the team held the year before was lost. Wins came from Colden State, 10-3, and Santa Monica, forfeit. A tie left any Pasadena Rugby Day , . ' Ti 'K H'- 211 mythical city championship undecided in the Pasadena Majors game. The list of defeats reads: U.S.C., 1-11, San Diego Marines, 6-103 Santa Barbara, 3-14 and 8-10, Spoilers, 5-B, Bruins, 3-15, and Hollywood, 5-13. Early-season prospects were quite bright until the loss ol' two P.A.C. men and several scholastically unstable Techsters weakened the team considerably. Improvement came with experience throughout the season, but baseball cut the ranks again before the final game with Hollywood. On uPasadena Rugby Dayf, both the P.A.C. team and the Majors played out-of- towners at Tournament Park. Another big event was the visit of the University of Brit- ish Columbia rugby team. The contact with the fellows from the north contributed greatly to local interest in rugby and to local understanding of the fine amateur spirit which surrounds the game. Since the start of a G 0 I f team three years ago, in- terest i11 the sport at Tech has been greatly increased. This year the season as a whole was fairly successif ul. The team, with almost no previous practice, plunged into a strenuous twelve-game season. They made a poor showing for the first few games, going down before U.C.L.A., P.J.C. and Santa Monica ,l.C. Soon, however, they hit their stride with two decisive victories over Oxy, a win over L.A.,l.C., and finally a close match with Pomona which ended in a 10-8 Tech victory. The Pomona win was the high point of the season. The Sagehens, with an imposing list of victories to their credit, came down to the Midwick course and found the Beavers in top form. In a close battle, the first team won five out of six points. The second team followed by winning four points, and then the lhird team won the necessary point to assure victory. Sam Vlfatson was first man and Captain this year, and he and Dave Sherwood played first team. Stuart McLaughlin and Harry Hoiles played second team, and Bob Winchell and Bill Lawson made up the third. Back row: Nash, Shcrwoodg front row: McLaughlin, lloilcs, Lawson, Watson.

The lnterhouse Trophy, awarded each year to the student house whose athletic teams pile up the greatest number of points in the interhouse competition, was won this year by the Fleming House redshirts. This victory makes it four straight for the Flem- ing athletes. The competition for the trophy opened in the fall term with a spirited fight in the round-robin foothall matches. This year, the Ricketts team, winners the previous year of the gridiron struggles, were tied hy the Fleming squad, with three wins and 108 one loss chalked up for each of the aggre- gations. Dahney came in third, Blacker fourth, and 'Fhroop Clnh fifth. Leather-lungers from Dahney took the first place in the cross-country races, fol- lowed hy Throop, llicketts, and lfleniing. Blacker failed to qualify in all of the runs, so forfeited hfth place. The only other first,-term interhouse ath- letic competition was the indoor hasehall games, with Dabney taking a certain first in the schedule. Ricketts, Blacker, Fleming, and Throop hnished in the order named. Besides the points given for winners in the tournaments, credit is allowed to the houses who have the greatest nuinher of men out for a varsity or fresh collegiate sport. As these 'cprofessionalsw are harred from the interhouse competition, allowance is made to the house which is thus handi- capped. The first term, Throop Club led the others quite a hit in the nnmher of men receiving Varsity and Fresh rating.

Fleming stood second with 73lf3, followed in a close third by Throop with 70. Dab11ey took fourth with 68, trailed by Blacker with a total of 27 points for the term. Fleming, however, turned on the pressure in the opening of the second term contests by taking first place in the interbouse bas- ketball and track competition. The casaba tussles were all fast and exceptionally well played, with the closest battle centering around the Ricketts-Fleur ing engagements. Ricketts, however, fin- ished only second best in the meets. Dabney took third, followed by Blacker in fourth and Throop in fifth places. Before the interhouse trackfest, Fleming and Throop were slated to battle it out for first place, but a strong Ricketts squad fought up to the front and nearly beat out the Fleming men who, however, managed to win the meet by six points. Two meet records were broken in the first day of the meet, with Bailey, of Fleming, Track Champions-lfleming--standing: Austen. Penn, Bentoug seated: White, Barry, Wileman, Walter.

Considering the meet was held so early in the season, these records are quite creditable. Throop finished a strong third in the competition, with Dabney fourth and Blacker fifth. At the close of the meet, excitement was running high as Fleming was then only three points behind the deter- mined Ricketteers in the trophy standings. Dabney and Fleming then tied in the wrestling matches, with Ricketts coming third, Blacker fourth, and Throop Hfth. Some unusual talent was uncovered as the 109 house gi-applers vied for the coveted trophy points. In the final competition of the second term, handball, Dabneyls pill slappers tri- umphed in a close victory over Blacker. Fleming took third honors, with Throop beating out Ricketts for fourth place. Honors for Varsity and Frosh rating again went to the non-resident Throopers, who, unfortunately, don't seem to have enough good men left to place so strongly in the interhouse competition. In the third term, results of which have not yet been released definitely, the four houses and Throop vied for trophy points in tennis, baseball, and swimming. In tennis, the Blacker netmen had the advantage over their opponents, while the redshirted Fleming squads seemed to take the lead in both the baseball and swimming competition. This will make the sixth year of the trophyis existence. The first two years it was Won by the Non-Resident Club, now organized into Throop Club. For the past four years, however, it has been retained by Fleming House. The other athletic award, contested for by the houses, is Discobolus. A bronze miniature of the famed Greek discus thrower, it passes from house to house, as one will challenge the other in any sport. All sorts ol' athletic contests, which must involve at least four players, are held to decide who shall. have possession of the Discobolus, and f or this reason numerous challenges keep it traveling from one place to another, seldom remaining the possession of one house for a period of more than a month or two.

Caltech's extra-curricular possibilities rest in the four houses and the Throop Club, the four classes, three musical groups, forensics, dramatics, seven inter-collegiate sports, three technical societies, eight gen- eral organizations, six honoraries, and stu- dent body government. Indicative of the growth of Caltechis extra-curricular activities is the degree of organization of the Associated Student Body. Today the Student Body is com- posed of approximately six hundred under- graduates organized as a non-profit corpo- ration. Each undergraduate pays eleven dollars per year Student Body dues, and a special assessment of three dollars for the Big T annual. The Student Body dues are apportioned half to the Institute toward the maintenance of athletics, the remainder to the Students' Board of Directors for application to the needs of the Student Body along other lines. The fundamental principle of student- student and student-faculty relations is the Honor Spirit. The Honor Spirit is vitalized and enforced thru an Honor System super- vised by a Board of Control. The present Student Body government stands for twenty-seven years of activity by student groups on this campus. its present form of incorporation was recently adopted in 1935. The Honor System was estab- lished in 1912 and strengthened in 1921. The Faculty-Student Relations Committee was formed in 1922. The Court of Tradi- tions dates from 1923. The Big TH was preceded by an annual called the Orange and White. Today's uCalifornia Tech was conceived in 1913 as the Throop Techf, The Little HT handbook is the successor of a Freshman handbook first published in 1921.

Blacker lived up to its reputation of having men in all phases of activ- ity on the campus and also continued with an active house program. The year started off with the usual four weeks of freshman rotation, during which time an infor- mal radio dance was held. The next important event was the Halloweien dance, when Blacker, decorated to resemble ancient Egypt, proved for the third consecutive time its superior social facil- ity by having the most popular dance as exhibited by the large crowd attending both from Blacker and from the other houses. Informal dances after football games and two staggers completed the term's program. The second term had as the feature of its social program a formal dance at the Del Mar Club at which some forty-five couples attended. Other events were an informal dance to the music of Hank Evans, a radio dance, a stag theatre party, and a formal dance with the Gamma Phi Beta sorority from U. C. L. A. The third termis diversi- fied activities included a treasure hunt, a costume party with a circus motif, an informal orchestra dance, and a tea dance at the Grove. As a re- sult, the average Blacker man's calendar was Vice-President Roland Stone, Treasurer David Luckenhill, President Edward Price, Secretary Donald MacDonald, Athletic Manager Robert Gewe, Resident Associate Harvey Eugleson. very full indeed. Bl30k0l' owes thanks for a good year socially to the Social Committee headed by J ack Kinley. One of the features of house life enjoyed by the men consisted of the entertainment provided for the house by each entry-way. A prize was awarded to the show judged best by the Upperclass Com- mittee. The award this year was given to the shadow play managed by Pete Schaifner as the committeeman in his alley-the skit satirized the life of the House. In athletics Blacker was not outstanding, but always managed to have a team competing. The in- terhouse tennis championship was won by Blacker. Abe Lincoln, the forensic challenge trophy, has been absent from the Blacker mantel only a little more than a term in four years. Blacker also has maintained the best scholastic average of all the houses this year. More informal activities about the House center about the lounge, Where bridge is perhaps the most popular diversion. Magazine-reading is also very popular, as is the radio-swing addicts usually overwork the phonograph when the new records are still new. Still more informal games are popular in the rooms and hallways, where the men can relax free from the world's constraints.

Blacker also owes a great deal of thanks to its Resident Associate, Dr. Eagleson, who has been in Blacker six years and is responsible for a great deal of Blackeris prog- ress during that time. Besides all these internal activities, Blacker men have been outstanding outside. For two successive years Blacker has had four men on the Board of Directors. Last year they were: Jack McLean, Secretaryg Martin Webster, Publicity Managerg Hank Evans, Rally Committee Chairmang Charles Miller, Represen- tative-at-Large-next year: Jack McLean, Presidentg Roland Stone, Vice-Presidentg Hank Evans, Treasurer, Evan Johnson, Bally Committee Chairman. Last year Boyd Hopkins and Dave Luckenbill were Co-Editors of the California Tech. Martin Webster and Edward Price edited and managed the 1936-37 Little T.,' Elliott Bonham filled the position of Exhibit Day Chairman. Blacker was particularly outstanding in activities in the forensic line, a majority of the debate team was from the House, as has been the situation in the past. The Blacker men of dramatic turn continued to dominate the production of the plays. The staff of the California Tech was also predominantly Blacker, and Blacker had a number of men in the orchestra and band, and some in athletics. With such a year behind it and much expected for next year, it is certain that Blacker has shown its outstanding place on the campus.

Harper Hitchings Hotz Kyte Legge Building into Dabney House during the past year a well-balanced group of men and a spirit of genuine fellowship has produced more than a group with limited house interests, for, as a supporter of student body activities, it has been one of the most active groups on the campus. Try- ing to present the opportunity for active participa- tion in all activities by every member, much has been gained both by the men and by the House. In social activity, in athletics, in scholarship and in other activities, Dabney has been outstanding on the campus both as an originator of new ideas and as a faithful supporter of tradition. Highlights of the year's well-filled social program might be listed as the most popular dance of the interhouse Hal- lowe'en party, the Thanksgiving Wilshire Bowl party, the eventful snow party at Big Pines, the traditional and very informal Hodge-Podge, the long-remembered winter formal dinner-dance at the Mayfair Hotel, Dr. and Mrs. lVlunro's formal supper dance at the Valley Hunt Club, and the traditional garden dance held under the stars in the house court. Boasting good representation on all varsity ath- letic teams, Dabney likewise might be called the 'GHouse of Captainsf' for it possesses as outstand- ing members leaders in several, sports. Athletic Vice-President William Wetmore, President Gordon Bussard, Ath- letic Manager Stanley Wolfberg, Resident Associate Donald Clark, Treasurer Charles Cates, Secretary Harold Smith. chiefs living in Dabney are: Football Cap- tain Bill Wetmore, Basketball Captain Hal Smith and Captain-elect Stan Wolfberg, Tennis Captain Tom Harper, and Cross-country Captain Charley Gates and Captain-elect Stan Vorhees. ln addition, the House has enjoyed a very successful year of intramural athletics, being interhouse champions in indoor baseball, cross-country and handball, besides sharing the interhouse wrestling champion- ship. As last year, the Discobolus Athletic Chal- lenge Trophy spent over two-thirds of its time in Dabney, seldom leaving the well-grooved place on her mantel. A good spirit characterized all teams, Win or lose, and with an active backing from the other house members, Athletic Manager Wolfberg and Company can look back on a successful year in every way. Dabney managed to keep a good standing in the race for the interhouse trophy, although it never seriously challenged the leaders. This showing in athletics was only a part of Dab- neyis attempt to do well in all lines. Outstanding as an active and forceful group on the campus, as shown by the fact that she has three of the six men in school selected for the national Who's Who Among Students in American Col- leges, Dabney likewise led the houses in scholar- ship averages at the last survey of the year, so Upperclass Committeemen: Frederic Dion, Donald Davidson, Har- old Sharp, John Legge, Ethan MacMichael, IieVan Griilis. 4 Levit Meanley Munoz Schuman H.

Smith Sweningsen Taggart Voorhees Warner White Wolfberg 121 9 H that as a compact and well-rounded group of men with a genuine spirit of fellowship, the members of Dabney House cannot be beaten. Although such results could never have been achieved without the ever-present cooperation of all house members, credit for the organization and much of the unseen work must fairly be given to the oflicers and to the upperclass commit- teemen. Many men of Dabney have taken outstanding parts in work about the campus. On the Board of Directors for the past year were Cordon Bussard, Treasurer, and William Wetmore, Ath- letic Manager. Next year's Board of Directors finds as members Stanley Wolfberg, Athletic Manager, and Jack White, Repre- sentative-at-Large, from Dabney. D011 Davidson, President ol' the Junior class, and Wendell lVliller, President of' both the Senior Class and the Beavers, were also prominent members ol' Dabney House. Dabney was active on the campus through work in journalism and dramatics, as well as in the athletics in which she stood out. Dabney's non-resident associates have been particularly help- ful to that house this year as they have been in the past. The dance givenby Dr. and Mrs. Munro at the Valley Hunt Club was particularly enjoyable and was indeed one of the most pleasant social events of the past year at the Institute. Other associates have also been very helpful in aiding the House with its program. Another addition to Dabney this year was the appointment of Dr. HButch Clark as resident associate to re- place Mr. C. K. Alexander, who had been in the House for some time. Dr. Clark was well-liked by the members, and his wel- come suggestions and timely advice were greatly appreciated by the House. Although it will miss its graduating men next year, Dabney has much Hood material in its lower classes and is expected lo D continue along the same lines.

Few of them will let their an ' an no ,ize tl.eir tlme to such an extent that .. ey . ave no room for outside activities. The re- sult is that Fleming men have more than their share of good times and constitute one of the most lively and up-and-coming groups on the campus. Perhaps another characteristic of its members is their indi- viduality and initiative. One can never tell when the men of the House will gather in the basement for all manner of bizarre contests or games, or meet in the lounge for a program of skits put on by individual entries. These numerous get-togethers help immeasurably to unify such a diverse group of men as any aggregation the size of Fleming House is bound to contain. However, while all types are represented, from those who can amass 250 credits in a term through a majority who get gentlemexfs grades to those who are interested in practically everything but studies, the House is closely knit. Such a diversity of members is desir- able to give a much-needed balanceg and variety of interests is requisite to the maintenance of a House which gets the most out of Tech.

Again this year, Flelllillg has continued the progress of past years. While there are few out- standing events of which to tell, the members feel that they have had their share of entertainment of various kinds, have had a lot of fun on the athletic fields, and have not neglected their academic work. At any event, they have had a darn good time. Fleming House has always had an athletic heri- tage. They were the first of the four student houses to win the Interhouse Athletic Trophy, so it was only natural that a good part of their efforts should have been spent in an effort to make it four in a row. So far it would appear that they have suc- ceeded admirably. At present, with only swimming and baseball remaining, she is leading her nearest rival by a comfortable margin. It looks as if the goal of the present Seniors in the House, namely, to keep the Trophy in the House during their four years, is going to be achieved. A large measure of the House's athletic success this year is due to its freshman members. They are a very active group and have made up a large part of all f rosh teams, thus contributing many valuable points to their House. In spite of this activity in athletics, their social life has not been neglected.

At present the house members are looking forward to the high point of the year, an all-day beach party and various stags and record dances. In addition, many men found time to attend the polo matches at Midwick as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Scott Brown, 11on-resident associates of the House. The House is further indebted to lVIr. and lVIrs. Willard Jackson, also non-resident associates, for their gener- osity in obtaining the services of the Abas String Quartet, who played well and interestingly at a tea given by the House. This concert was part of a series which were given in all the houses during the course of several weeks. As this year draws to a close, Fleming members may look back over the year with a feeling of satisfaction, and may rest assured that in the future, as always, the House will ollier the same diversified program of athletics, social functions, stags, and concerts, a11d, in addition, there will be the Fleming House originality and spontaneity that provides the keenest enjoyment and warmest memories of college life. These qualities are, we believe, particularly Flemingls.

Varsity and frosh teams always found an adequate repre- sentation of Ricketts men in their ranks. Calculated to land in fourth or fifth place in the competition for the interhouse trophy, the House maintained first position throughout the major part of the year. After getting off to a good start in indoor base- ball by placing second, the Ricketts House team shared first honors with that of Fleming House in the football scramble. This year's occupation of first place in football is the third consecutive time that Ricketts has attained this position, giving her undisputed supremacy in this sport. Track found the Ricketts team, which was slated to fight a hard fight for last place, barely nudged out of the first spot. Again this year the house Varsity secured second place in basketball by a safe margin. ln baseball, Ricketts contributed most heavily to the support of the Institute varsity, and still put out a first-class interhouse team. These triumphs, plus consistent work in the minor sports, are what kept the House near the top throughout the year. In the field of social activities, as well as in the field of sports, Ricketts House excelled.

All the game tables and a bar were moved into the loungeg and fortunes in Ricketts Bucksn were made and lost by the minute at the annual smoker. The evening wound up with a program of local magicians, and imported dancers giving a rendition of the hula. The general opinion gotten by the janitors as they swept up the cigar stubs and rolled out the empty cider kegs was that Ricketts was uoill' to another year. Of the other three annual affairs, much the same can be said. They were the best yet! This was largely due to the fact that the dances were better attended than they have ever been in the past. The 'aBarn had its floor con- stantly crowded during the interhouse Hallowe'en dance. Traditional comers to this affair have learned to look forward to an evening of fun and rollicking in this delightfully rustic setting. The formal, last year held at the glamorous E1 T roca- dero, was given the second term of this year at the Swank Victor Hugo in Beverly Hills, carrying out the idea of having one big off-campus dance. The exclusiveness of the Victor Hugo was added to by the fact that the House had its affair in a private section with its own orchestra. Finally, the spring dance, held outdoors between Ricketts and Fleming, Upperclass Commizleenzen: Martin Poggi, Richard Rowell, Wil- liam Nash, Lowell Hulbirt, John Merriam, Clay Smith, Douglas Hollow.

Here, under a California moon and Chinese lanterns, the Ricketteers danced and rolnanced to the music of Harry Baker and his orchestra. The House entertained its Associates and friends at two affairs this year. The first time was at a Sunday afternoon concert given by the Abas String Quartet through the courtesy of Mrs. Jackson. After the concert, tea was served in the dining room of the House. The second affair was a novel urevolving banquet at which the guests change tables after each course. This revolving idea was suggested by 0116 of the non-resident associates, Mr. C. B. Voorhis, and was done in order that each guest might have an opportunity to meet the maximum number of the fellows in the House. Also novel in the list of activities was an affair which con- sisted of a dinner at the House, a Treasure Hunt immediately :following dinner, and a dance after that. Thanks to the inge- nuity of Blackerls '5Doc'7 Eagleson, the clues were of such a nature that few of the searchers reached the end. Also included in the evening's entertainment were two spanish exhibition dances. Two exchange dances were held between Ricketts House and Scripps College, following an idea introduced by Vice-President Bruce Elliot. The first of these was held with Clark Hall, the second dance with Dorsey Hall. Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Voorhis gave the members of the House a barbecue supper at their home which was even better than a similar party given by them .last year. In addition to all these, a stag party was held each term: the first a bowling party, the second an ice skating party and the third a Balboa Beach Stag. At the end of the first term, Mr. Mac Rae, Resident Associate, went to New York to work in the Bell Telephone Laboratories. Although he was missed very much, in Mr. Mellinger, the new Associate, the men found adequate compensation for the loss of Mr. Mac Rae. Mr. Mellinger comes from Drake College, and is spending two years here in order to get his master's degree in aeronautical engineering. In summary, everything has combined to make this one of the most successful years in Ricketts House history.

The difficulties in bringing together a group of men who are not thrown together all the time has been only a challenge to the oflicers and has resulted in the formation of an excellent organization based upon the cooperation of all the members of the organization. The Throop Club now embraces a rather large membership of men active in all lines of campus activity and glad to participate in the various club activities, which include dinners, stags, dances, teas, and athletic participation. The functions of the Throop Club center about the lounge which was built by the members last year. Here the members Iind a good spot to read magazines, play bridge, listen to the phonograph, sleep on the comfortable furniture, or even study during the day. Here dinner meetings are held every two weeks. The lounge also affords a splen- did place to hold dances whenever the members wish. When some social function is scheduled for the evening, a small group of busy men is usually seen about the lounge making ready for the event by polishing the floor and preparing the decora- tions. In the year and a hall' of its existence, the lounge has become very popular. Associate L. Winchester Jones, President Alton Pabst, Secretary Carl Larson, Treasurer .lack Baker, Vice-President Thoxnas V Davis. An extensive TllPO0Il social calendar began on the first night of school with a stag dinner held to honor Freshmen and new members. Presi- dent Al Pabst acted as toastmaster. This stag was an auspicious start for the club year and was well attended. After the Pomona and Oxy games Throop continued its traditional policy of holding open house. At Thanksgiving, Bill Nance furnished the music f or a semi-formal dance which was well attended. Several dinner meetings were held dur- ing the first term. The termls social activities ended with a record dance held in the lounge after finals were over. Activities for the second term began with a tea in order to mark the first anniversary of the open- ing of the new lounge. Mrs. Millikan pouredg and the Abas string quartette gave a recital of chamber music. After the Occidental basketball game, Hank Evans played for a sport dance in the loungeg and at a stag held later Professor J ones amused all by breaking the bank. A radio dance in the lounge and a dance at the Altadena recreation center added to a full social program which was climaxed by a dance with Ricketts at the La Canada Thursday Club. Many of the members spent all or part of the vacation enjoying the various attractions of Balboa. Sophomore C!1fll'I'HIll7L ,lack Osborn, Ailzletic Manager James Van Horn.

This started a rather complete social program for the term, including dances of all kinds: dignity demanded a semi-formal affair-the less dignified mem- bers prevailed on the others to have a sport dance-and those not satisfied with even this were able to swing a ulam Session at which a great deal of fun was had. To round off the program, a theatre party was held to please the more intellectual element. A comparison of Throop Club activities this year with those of former years shows that the new lounge has been a big factor in Throop,s social life. It has given the group an excellent place to assemble on the campus, and the result has been a great expansion socially. In addition to social affairs, Throop was well represented in ath- letics and in all forms of student-body activities. D. Meyer R.

The California Tech, weekly newspaper published by the journalistically inclined students, presents sports, social and news events. A 4'Letters to the Editori' col- umn offers the reader an opportunity to express opinions on current campus topics. Noble Mains edited the Tech after the spring election last year, but transferred in June, to be succeeded by Pete Avenali. Bob Davidson was elected Editor when Pete failed to return in September. By the end of the first term, scholastic diliiculties had beset Bobg so Boyd Hopkins and David Luckenbill were elected to a co- editorship. The two served out the year begun by Mainsg and Keith Anderson took over after the regular election in March. Ably handling the financial end of the paper, Willard Farnham held the position ol' Business Manager throughout the year, worked with all six editors, except Avenali. Assisting Farnham was John Farneman, who has just been elected to succeed him.

This book, the 1937 edition of the Big T, is the twenty-seventh annual of that name published by the undergraduate students of the California Institute of Technology, and the second such book to be financed under a system of compulsory subscription. Still, in the eyes of those closest to this particular edition, it appears that it must be the first in point of headaches. The business staff, headed by Bruce Elliott, has procured even more advertise- ments than last yearis men. The 1 9 3 7 T makes its appearance a little later than usual, with our hope that it is a better book for that. Very helpful from the beginning has been Ray Richards. Ed Price, Bob Mahoney and Keith Anderson have contributed greatly with writeups and rewrite assistance alike. Many others have helped in one way and another, but space does not allow mention here. Thank you all, gentlemen. Next year, Lavender and Mackay will co-edit, VanFleet managing. Heaven help them! Robert Davidson Thomas V Davis Bruce Elliott Tech Editor Big T Editor Big T Business Manager Edward Price Martin Webster The 1936-1937 Little T, helped immeasurably by increased financial support from the student-body treasury, took a new form, included many new ideas, and presented itself as a publication of which Tech could well be proud. The co-editors, Edward T. Price and Martin H. Webster, were directly responsible for the distinction of this handbook. For the first time in history, the edition this year appeared in a convenient pocket size, bound in attractive dark brown leatherette, and stamped on its cover with a brilliant orange block-T. In addition to the general information so often sought throughout the year, the contents of the book included a list of the names and addresses of the student body, a list of the faculty offices, the school yells and songs, the corpora- tion by-laws and numerous cuts of student-body leaders, and in its back fold a street map of Pasadena. Although the Little T is aided by student-body appropria- tion, only the loyal support of local merchants who advertise so generously in all Tech publications made this handbook possible. Whether a Techman wants c'Where-to-Buy-It or Student Body Information it is offered in the Little T.

Coach Ray Untereiner, with sixteen men to work with him, started the year by having the arguers spend their spare time in study- ing the pros and cons of Resolved: That Congress should have power to fix minimum wages and maximum hours for industry. The first tournament, that of the Weste1'n Forensic Association, was held at Pasadena in Novemherg and Tech sent live teams. Al- though none of them reached the finals, they gained valuable experience. Later, McLean and Beavon came out with tour wins and three losses ill the open divi- sion ol' the lVIcMinnville contest. . Next, two Caltech learns entered the Southern California Conference tourna- ment, and gave a good account ol' themselves without being too succcssliul. Closing the season, Tech entered five teams in the regional Pi Kappa Delta contest at Stockton, early in April. The leading team won four ol' six debates, a record bet- tered by only five ol' the thirty teams entered in that group. Stone and Allen followed McLean and Beavon by splitting their six at three wins and three losses. Practice debates were held with U.C.L.A., Loyola and the University ol' Utah. Roland Stone was the debate manager. The freshman squad, coached by liobert Mahoney, debated the current electric util- ities question with Redlands, their only prepared opponents. Their defeat ended the season, in which they met P.,i.C. and Pasa- dena College in practice meets. Wallace Hayes managed the Freshmen. Back row: Keyser, Marriott, Brooks.

Full of ageless humor and usual Roman coarseness was i'The Persiann by Plautus, the fourteenth annual classical play spon- sored as before by the local chapter of Pi Kappa Delta. Ably directed by D1's. Harvey Eagleson and Roger Stanton, the campus talent kept the audience rolling in the aisles lrorn the lirst curtain to the last. The plot revolves about the efforts of a servant, Toxilus, in his master's ahsence, to buy his own sweetheart from Dordalus, a slave dealer. Dordalus is persuaded by the cunning servant to buy a beautiful freedwoman disguised as a Persian slave. Roman law forces the dealer to give up the freedwoinang however, Toxilus already has the money, his sweetheart, and the pleasure of seeing his plans succeed at the expense of Dordalus. The final scene is a merry, drunken brawl. This bawdy and rowdy play had its cast topped by Douglas Rollow, who gave a good and necessarily comic interpretation of Tox- ilus. Dordalus was splendidly portrayed by Ralph ,lonesg and Sagaristo, Toxilus' li-, liielnlrtls, Hollow, l.r1ird, Smith, Lavalelli, Allen, Parker, Jones aide and Wulf? P0l'Siilll,9W21S i1l3lY played by Leo Lavatelli. Ray Richards did Saturio, a parasite, excellently. High com- edy was offered by Richard Allen in the role of Paegnium. The women in the pro- duction-who are always worth the price of admission alone-were Saturio's daugh- ter, Lemniselenis and Sophoclidisca, femi- ninely personated by Philip Smith, John Parker and James Laird, respectively. Four presentations were made, two mat- inees and two evening performances, over a period of three days. A dance was held for ticket-holders after the last show, Saturday evening, November 21.

The past 0P0ll0StPa season has seen the successful continuation of the pol- icy adopted last year, that of presenting meritorious lesser-known works of the mas- ter composers. A symphony of Franz Beck dating back to 1760, the rarely played Schubert third symphony, the Mozart con- certo for bassoon, the Haydn 4'lVIilitary', symphony, some dances of Beethoven, a Bach chorale and two arias from lVlozart's HMagic Fluten were programmed. After opening the season with the cus- tomary Monday assembly concert, the orchestra settled down to a long series of hard rehearsals to prepare for its spring season. Finally, shaken but undaunted, our symphonic lads emerged from the struggle to hold down the stage of the Civic Audi- torium on the evening of May 5 for the first major concert. The success won in this appearance well repaid the long months of preparation. Another assembly program and a radio broadcast followed, and the season was brought to a climax by an invi- tational concert in Culbertson as May ended. William Bergren has continued setting a high musical standard for the boys. His work as Musical Director and Conductor during the past five seasons has brought the orchestra to an Luiexpectedly high level. Bill Cardwell succeeded Dick Rosencranz as temporal head ol' the Orchestra early in the year, thereby assuming the burden of arranging if or the season. Armand DuFresne held the Librarian job. Concertmaster was Benjamin Kazan, Second Principal Bruce Hicks.

The football team had a two weeks, start on the band this year, but the fellows made up for it in the games to follow. Their presence was particularly noticed in the Oxy-Pajamarino parade through Pasa- dena, the annual Hbig-night for all loyal Techmen. The end of the football season, however, only began the seasonls activities for the band. The flashy orange uniforms appeared at several of the Friday student assem- blies. Next the men settled down to co- operate with the Pasadena Junior College Assembly organization, the Balld participating in the annual Rose Parade. In this capacity, the Techmen played on several national broadcasts, and acted as a part of the ofhcial Tournament of Roses band. Early in March, the band presented a group of numbers in an assembly program for members and friends of the student body, and it was so well received that an- other was given in the third term. This year, for the first time in the history of the organization, the band appeared on the annual exhibit day program, presenting two enthusiastically received concerts to the public attending the campus. Included in the yearis activities of the band were several popular functions for members of the band. Boyne Grainger was president and man- ager for the band this last year. Lowell Hulbirt served as assistant manager, and Warden Lewis acted as librarian. The Institute G l 0 0 C l ll ll , under the direc- tion of Mr. Henry Lyons, fulfilled an unusual and diversi- Hed program for the past year. During the first term of the school year, the club met once a week to sing together for plea- sure and recreation, ending the term with the rendition of a number of Christmas carols. With the opening of 1937, the weekly rehearsals were cen- tered about training for programs, and songs were presented to the student body during an early assembly. Another concert was given, this time before an outside audience, as part of the annual exhibit program on the campus. With a membership of only about two dozen men, the Glee Club oil ers an excellent relaxation from the studies which some of the men find oppressive. Several programs were presented by the club at outside schools and neighboring colleges, and a beach party for the members climaxed the year's schedule. Oliicers of the organization for the past year were Robert Jones, President, Melvin Levet, lVlanagerg Paul Dennis, Secre- tary-Treasurerg and George Dorwart, Librarian.
