C. As a part of the general war effort is an effort to live a normal life, and, contrary to the popular belief, Tech- nology men are quite normal and do their share of re- laxing, rough-housing and socialiting. Most of the fellows have come to the realization that leaders, whether they be presidents of corporations or chief research men in a small laboratory, must be well-round- ed and must understand people from a practical point of view. Wellesley College is still the main source of dates for Tech men. Lots of the fellows find their hearts else- where, this makes it necessary for them to import the feminine half of their couple from schools outside of the Boston area. Either source is quite satisfactory, as is evidenced by the charming groups of young ladies al- ways present at the various functions of the year. Both the Dorms and the fraternities sponsored dances of real worth-from strictly formal proms to the most in- formal of barn dances. The Sophomore Prom opened the big name season with the presentation by Gene Krupa, his drums and Davis, Lindsay, and Collins enjoy a between-classes coke in the Coop , ' .' -J w yu- - v9 1!' .

While the seniors supported a lively dance with Earle Nelson, the juniors favored a more quiet evening with Tommy Tucker. Admittedly Boston's night spots are not many, but among the few are some good ones. Any week-end eve- ning finds many Technology men and their dates dancing at the Ritz Roof, Copley Plaza Merry-Go-Round or Bermuda Terrace. More informal coke and beer dates are facilitated at Jakie Wirth's famous establishment or at the Beachcomber. For still more informality, many go to Gundlach's Hofbrau and sing the evening away with the Alpine Band. When springtime comes with her warming breezes, the Wellesley wooded parks and lake paths are dotted with walking and bicycling two-somes. Last fall when the nation was biting its finger nails watching a closely contended college football race, a movement was growing among the Tech students to give varsity football a try. The Tech Novars had a good season in spite of insufficient and badly worn equipment and produced evidences that with the right spirit and backing, Tech could build a team of real ball players.
