S. Gottlieb, M. ]. Gardner Student government serves both as im- mediate need and ultimate goal. In the present, student government is the means by which the manifold extracurricular pursuits of Tech students — athletic, liter- ary, musical, dramatic, and social — are supervised and administered. For the fu- ture, the training and experience gained by participation in student government inculcates the responsibility, leadership, and initiative so essential to the develop- ment of character and personality. Coin- cident with the attaining of technical and professional proficiencv, college experi- ence must equip the graduate to take his place in his community as a responsible, socially-conscious citizen, particularly in our present technical age, when the con- INSTITUTE COMMITTEE tributions of the engineer and scientist so affect the public welfare. The ultimate end and cardinal precept of student govern- ment is to provide the opportunitv for such training. All legislative, executive, and judicial power pertaining to the administration of the complex structure of M.I.T. activities is vested in a representative body known as the Institute Committee, which meets biweekly to consider all matters pertain- ing to student affairs. Numbering thirty- five men, the group consist of three repre- sentatives from each of the four classes, the chairman of the seven standing subcom- mittees, and the delegate of the sixteen most prominent activities on campus. The president of the senior class is president of the committee, the chairman of the Walker Memorial Committee is its secre- tary, and the chairman of the Budget Committee is its treasurer. From among its membership, the group elects a vice- president and two members-at-large, who together with the president, secretary, and treasurer comprise an executive committee whose function it is to gather facts and John Kern, Treasurer, gives his report to the Committee Members lAary Burke, Institute Committee Secretary, gives Andy Price pointers on the Mimeograph Machine details about matters relating to student affairs and to make recommendations on the basis of these facts to the assembled committee. Subcommittees of the Insti- tute Committee supervise the finances of undergraduate activities, allocating all funds appropriated by the Institute for the support of student organizations; con- sider jointly with the Facult y matters affecting students; perform secretarial func- tions and administer the Walker Memorial Building and subsidiary buildings which house the various activities; supervise all elections; work with the National Student Association on matters, national and in- ternational in scope, which pertain to student life; control the publicity and public relations of student organizations and activities; and make recommenda- tions on disciplinary and judicial matters.

Buchin PUBLIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE Turning out over 1000 news releases in the past year, the Public Relations Committee has accomplished much toward publicizing Tech ' s many undergraduate activities. Keyed to the primary purpose of promoting liaison between student activities and the press, the Committee is divided into three basic units to cover the fields of special events, hometown releases, and prep school relations. Chairman James A. Hooper heads an Executive Committee com- posed of division heads and the sec- retary-treasurer, which coordinates the actions of the respective groups. The Special Events Division, su- pervised hv Richard Willard, is charged with publicizing special hap- penings connected with undergradu- ate activities at the Institute. Cooper- ating with the publicity chairmen of such events as the Junior Prom, the Special Events Division sends out news releases to the various news- papers in the Boston area. BUDGET COMMITTEE What ' s been the most contro- versial student activity at Tech this year? — Budget Committee, which plans and accounts for the finances of the Undergraduate Asso- ciation, of course! It all started last Spring when J.C. Kern took over the job of Chairman. Never one to step light- ly when he has the chance to fall in up to his neck, Kern proceeded to install an entirely new system of red tape; prepare the over-all budget for the year, completely oblivious of the cries and moans of those activity heads who had been cut off without a cent; write a new set of By-Laws, expecting to slip them through Institute Com- mittee like he did the budget; pick up several neat Juniors as assistants so that he could pass the buck for the whole mess to them; calmly delete the bands from all dance budgets; and then take a nice little vacation.

ELECTIONS COMMITTEE The duties and responsibilities of the Elections Committee have increased mark- edly within the past four years. Such an increase may he traced to three factors: the improvement in student interest, the postwar increase in student population, and the increase in annual elections. Because of the improvement in student interest, the Elections Committee has found it necessary to supervise more close- ly the enthusiastic electioneering which is conducted with commendable vigor and imagination. All exaggerated claims made by candidates on nomination petitions and posters are investigated thoroughly by the Elections Committee. The Committee is proud to report that unsubstantiated claims occur very infrequently and are usually found to be honest mistakes.

On March 10, the committee presented the annual Activities Ball, in honor of the men who have taken part in activities during the year. In previous years, the committee itself had handled all the pre- parations for the dance, but this year a subcommittee consisting of representa- tives of the major activities was formed to do this, making the dance by the activities as well as for the activities. The members are: Chairman, Melvin Gardner, Glen Battaglia, Robert Briber, J. Burgess Jamieson, Harold Lawrence, Richard Lyle, John Priser, Harold Rich, Robert Stephenson, George Weiss.

' s 17th Biannual Open House was held on Saturday, May 13, 1950, in conjunction with the Boston Jubilee week. Over thirty thousand visitors toured the halls of the Institute, viewing the many departmental and activity exhibits. Since the middle of October, the Open House Committee, headed by chairman Norm Champ, had been hard at work on the project. Publicity in the form of post- ers, circulars and press releases was sent out not only all over the Institute but throughout New England by the Publicity Committee headed by George Piness and John Holland, On Open House Day extracurricular ac- tivities, such as the Model Railroad Club and WMIT, worked on operating sched- ules, and the three major publications. The Tech, T.E.N., and Voo Doo printed special editions. The afternoon was round- ed out by athletic events, including base- ball and lacrosse games and a track meet on Briggs Field.

The committee acts in an advisory capacity with respect to the Dean of Students and the Faculty Committee on Student Discipline, the chairman having a seat on the latter. The committee has two offices; a chair- man, and a secretary, elected by Institute Committee, and three other members elected by the Dormitory Committee, 5:15 Club and Inter-Fraternitv Conference, re- spectively. STUDENT FACULTY COMMITTEE In the past the student faculty commit- tee has served as a mechanism for han- dling student complaints. During the past three years, however, the committee has begun turning its attention more to the broader job of investigating ' matters of importance to both students and faculty. The student portion of the committee met weekly throughout the year, and monthly with the faculty in a series of dinner meetings. The student portion of the committee consists of Ben Wood, chairman, Les Allison, Anne Rosie, George Bromfield, Fred Bumpus, Dave Findlay, Bob Glad- stone, Bob Briber, Bob Donovan, Ken King, and Charles Walker. The faculty are represented by Prof. Rule, chairman. Prof. Bavelas, Adm. Cochrane, Prof. Gard- ner, Prof. Holt, Dean Pitre, Prof. Putnam, Prof. Sears, Prof. Thomas, and Prof. Whitman. Standing: R. M.

Say or, Jr., General Manager Frankly, it was fun producing the 1950 Technique, even though it took many long hours of work, sessions with our engraver and printer, and much proof- reading. The 1950 Technique incorporates more pictures in it this year than in previ- ousyears; it is truly the students ' yearbook, for we endeavored to show as many stu- dents ' pictures as was possible. Joe Saylor was the general manager of the book and did the whip-cracking; how- TECHNIQUE ever, without the helpful cooperation of the rest of the staff, nothing would have been accomplished. Mark Baxter was our business manager and as such kept the creditors away from our door. It was through his efforts that we were able to acquire the beautiful secretaries that keep the rest of the staff happy. Voo Doo has beer, we have secretaries. The photography was capably handled by Dick Henderson and Chris Rust plus a staff of photographers who worked in the dark room so long that a consistent diet of carrots was needed to help them stave off night blindness. Burt Jamieson was our editor-in-chief and with the able assistance of Sam Rubin- ovitz, our associate editor, filled the book with the articles and captions. Sam did a good job on the captions, misspelling every name but his own; however, it was still a remarkable job. Burt Jamieson became ill in January Right: Darkroom meeting: John Mohr, Chris Rust, Clint Seeley and Don North Below: Bill Gorum, O Zte Kincannon, and Clint Seeley Chicking Technique s progress: Joe Banks, Joe Say or, and Dick Henderson and was sent home. He was replaced by Ed Beauchamp who upheld the hiurels of the editorial department. Acting as liaison between Saylor and Henderson was Chuck Richard the manag- ing editor. It was his job to notify the various activity heads that pictures were needed. By his work, we were able to meet the photo deadline, a thing never before heard of on Technique. Our art editor, Clint Seely, did excellent work on the cover and furnished many drawings for use in the opening section of the book. Technique Photographers: Standing: M. B. Schupack, R. B.

Benenson Complete coverage of Technology events has been the byword of The Tech ever since this oldest of our activities had its beginning in 1881. Although the Institute has no regular course in Journalism, the newspaper does provide an informal edu- cation in this held, for here is an outlet for those with abilitv to write, and create. N. Trask, R. Bacastow, N. R. MacDonald, J. Stenart Getting away from the grind is essen- tial to a well-balanced education and the manv hours staff men spend in the Walker Office writing headlines, typing copy or chasing down assignments provide a wel- come relief from Technologv ' s routine. In addition to the regular two-issue-a- week schedule several special editions are published during the academic year. Last spring complete coverage was given to the Mid-Century Convocation and that par- ticular issue of The Tech provided a per- manent record of that much publicized event. And to give the Freshmen a hint of what lies ahead, the special Frosh Camp Issue is printed before the term officially begins. A Problem in Make-up: P. Gay, M. Bosniak, G.

Beaver Barks, After Hours, and The Lounge are but three of the many columns offering criticism, in- formation, and description of everything from fraternirv tormals to he-hop and Bach. 31 J Editor-in-Chief Ken Kopp e The Tech Engineering News publishes eight issues a year while staffs come and go. One wonders how, under such con- stantly changing direction, it can preserve its character with time. The answer is, at least this past year, it doesn ' t. Two years ago even a Tech man could pass by a T.E.N, sales booth and not put down his quarter, explaining , That mag- azine ' s too technical for me. The excuse no longer holds, and sales have risen pro- portionately. Particularly in this past year has T.E.N, become more and more a publication informing students about ac- TECH ENGINEERING NEWS tivities on their campus — from the camp- us radio station to the spectroscopy labora- tory. The technical touch has not been lost, however — two or three articles each issue treated fields studied at M.I.T. One strikingly new feature has been added — every month there appears a student- written science fiction story, which has been first tested on a number of staff mem- bers to prove its worth. One of the year ' s outstanding projects was the Student Living Habits Poll. Con- ceived the previous spring and developed from then on, the poll was administered in class to 2200 undergraduates in November of ' 49. How much sleep? How much study? How much social life? How much church attendance? Questionnaires containing the answers to these and other questions were filled out and the results published in the February issue. Perhaps publishing these results was not such a good idea, for all they showed was a strikingly normal Tech student, by all standards. Louie Galau, Business Manager, confers with Bernie Gordon 32 Under the direction ot Ralph Johnston, Gener al Manager, Helmut Weber, Man- aging Editor, and Ken Kopple, Editor-in- Chief, T.E.N, did these things, and more — it came out in the black at the end of the year. Much of the work of putting out a mag- azine is done by the Junior Board members and last vear was no exception. Bill Lucas spent many week ends htting material into the T.E.N, makeup; George Field and Milo Backus chased recalcitrant authors, edited material and tookover fortheeditor when he got lazy. Charlie Saltsman, aside from authoring several articles on sailing, saw to it that illustrations, cartoons, and posters were available when needed. Tony Ranti and Stuart Stein collared advertisers and sent out subscription copies, respect- ively. Covers have always been a matter of pride to T.E.N. The style developed by Charlie Jordan ' 49, was amplified and developed by Ray Ghosn, a grad student, T.E.N. Sales Desk whose work often drew more attention than the material it cov ered. The word for The Tech Engineering Netvs this year has been growth — a change in character, an increase in popularity. May the trend continue. Howie Bernstein hanks his iiares! Batk Row: W. Garrn, R.

Catholic stu- dents came together for the first rime to form a club which would provide a spiritu- al and social outlet for Catholic students at the Institute. Today the Technology Catholic Club with its over two hundred and fifty members stands as living evi- dence of the successful efforts of the original group and those who followed them. It is doubtful if the students of 1906 would recognize the club which they nursed in its infancy, for each year has seen Above: Fr.

Kramer Wallace Ross, General Secretary TECHNOLOGY CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION This was a big year for the Technology Christian Association, for it moved from its cellar offices to the former Walker Library space on the second floor of Walk- er Memorial. These more distinguished quarters enable the sixty undergraduate members and the seven advisory and sten- ographic secretaries to render better service to the members of the M.I.T. family. This year ' s program was started by sending the incoming Techmen a Fresh- man Handbook which acquaints him with life at Tech. The TCA further helped the freshmen bv working with the Institute to administer a freshman week-end orienta- tion program. This vear ' s three-day affair was held at the Institute and at the Salva- tion Army Camp on Lake Massapoag. A ray of sunshine, Jean Hupper Clay Burchell ' 50, was the key TCA representative. The Ticker Service, directed by Fred Weitz ' 51 and Bill Moss ' 52 and the Book Exchange, directed by John Stewart ' 51 and Ed Margulies ' 52 saved many students time and monev. Student organizations were benefited by the free use of the TCA ' s mimeograph machines and by utilizing the projector service. Bob Tweit ' 50 is supervisor of this department which has two fine projectors. The new TCA ' s Tech House proved to be a big success. This 14-room lodge, lo- cated on the old Colonel Green estate on Buzzard ' s Bay, gave groups of Tech stu- dents and their gals a chance to escape the academic atmosphere on week-ends. One of the highlights of the year was the going over the top in the annual TCA fund drive. This success showed the TCA that their services were appreciated and that the students were wholeheartedly behind the organization. Gerrv Burns ' 51 was the efficient Drive Chairman, and Jerry Austen ' 51. Director of Public Relations, worked closely with him. Ed Margulies 52, and Don Schlatter ' 51, also had kev jobs in the drive. 36 S Committee Meeting: A. C. Saioth, D. E. Rose, 1 C. F. Melliii Jr., President; D. B. Kret, Mr. Ross Left: Mr. Ross, R. A.

In addi- tion to supplying the workers for some twenty-odd Settlement Houses in greater Boston, the TCA gave $250 to send under- privileged children to summer camps. The TCA looks back on one of its big- gest years and forward to days in which it can better serve the members of the MIT family and the underprivileged children of greater Boston.

The Concert Band, under the direction The 1949- ' 50 concert season was given its initial impetus by one of the most success- ful Monster Rallys in the history of the Institute. There we found an array of both new and old talent that was combined to give New England concert audiences some exceptionally good performances. The listening public ' s first glimpse of the Musical Clubs came when the Men ' s Glee Club, under the direction of Professor Klaus Liepmann, presented its annual con- cert in conjunction with the Bradford Junior College Glee Club on November 10th in Morse Hall. This concert was ex- ceptionally well attended and was much appreciated by all who were present.

Because of the unseasonably low temperatures, the audience was rather small, and many of the players were hud- dled in blankets and overcoats, but through it all the musical qualitv was a credit to the hand, and the spectators were glad they had come. On December 10, the Musical Clubs presented their rendition of Handel ' s im- mortal Messiah to an overflow crowd in Jordan Hall. This was undoubtedly the most auspicious concert ever presented by the Musical Clubs, and hrmly convinced the Musical Clubs ' Management that MIT students really enjoy good music. Also during this period, a new group was formed and added to the Musical Clubs — the Loga-Rhythms. This group is a men ' s octet, and was formed with the sole intent of allowing the men to sing typical barbershop quartet music. How- ever, it is anticipated that as a permanent part of the Musical Clubs, this group will be able to provide intermission entertain- ment at many or all school dances and will also have the pleasure of singing at various other colleges throughout New England. During the Spring term, they had engage- ments at Bradford, RadclifFe, and Welles- ley, and it is expected that their success The J azXrCombo ' Musical Clubs ' concert at the Shell ' The Logarhythms.

As the term progressed, the orchestra was able to travel to Wellesley, Mt. Holyoke, and Colby Jr. College, and finally presented another solo concert at MIT on May 12, thus ending a very suc- cessful concert season. As the spring term became history, we found the Glee Club singing additional concerts with RadclifFe, Lasell, and the Boston Pops orchestra at the traditional Tech Night at the Pops. They were also privileged to present a half-hour radio broadcast for the Monsanto Chemical Company on March 12, and this was car- ried on a six-station NBC hookupthrough- out New England. The Glee Club closed its season with a very successful trip to Smith College where they were featured as a part of Smith College Float Night which was not only a musical success but also a social success and convinced the fellows in the club that they had partici- pated in one of the Glee Club ' s best sea- sons.

Leavitt Right: Jenny and John by the garden gate TECH SHOW Climaxing twelve months of work, worry, and fun, the presentation of Stranger in Town by Tech Show 1950 perhaps marked the beginning of a new era in musical comedy production by this industrious and successful activity. Featur- ing a cast, chorus, staff, songs, and book which may be credited almost entirely to members of the Tech family, the two-act musical comedy met with great success when presented on the evenings of March 17 and 18, 1950, at the Cambridge High and Latin Auditorium.

Laetitia being removed by the lobstermen Below: The Reverend pulls a Gromyko 1949, in the fertile brains of Larrv Michel ' 47 and Art Van Stolk ' 49- As work on the script progressed under the watchful eyes of General Manager Art Wasserman and Director Brewster Denny, Johnny Leffler began composing music for the show; Dennv, Abelson, and Van Stolk provided the lyrics, and such songs as I ' m a Very Striking Viking, Song of Census, and I Love Him Any Old Way resulted. Casting the show from the myriad of talent present at the auditions proved to be a verv difficult task. A hold-over from previous Tech Shows, Joe Gottlieb, was picked for the part of Leif Ericson. James Bresee was cast in the role of John. The part of Jenny was played by Gwen Down- hill, while Dorothy Liftig, an attractive sophomore from Emerson College, acted the part of Tino. Belton Moore, wife of a Tech graduate student, played Laetitia, the housekeeper; and George Marcou was the frustrated census-taker. Following auditions, rehearsals were be- gun under thedirection of Brewster Denny. In the meantime, the production staff, headed by Gerard Hartstein, began con- structing scenery and props and engineer- ing special effects. The business staff, man- aged by Richard Stephan, first devoted its efforts to publicizing the show. Bob Dono- van captained a group which secured ad- vertising and prepared the program, while ' Ha i lit no such thing as ghosts; it says here Above: Don t always believe what you read, Reveren.l Left: The townspeople parade through Sturdley Square Appropriately awed, Jim Kae delivers an urgent message to Leif ticket sales were very successfully handled under the direction of Paul Lux. The climax of all the aforementioned efforts were the March 17 and 18 presenta- tions of Stranger in Town to almost capacity audiences. Realizing that Stran- Director Brewster Denny assists our hero, Joe Gottlieb, in making-up ger was an outstanding production that shouldn ' t be passed by so suddenly, the managing board arranged for a perform- ance at Connecticut College, New London, Conn., on April 21, 1950, where the show was very well received.

Draniasliop was started in 1927 by the late Dean Mattison Fuller and gave its first performance The Hairy Ape in the old Rogers Building at 491 Bovlston Street in Boston. Originally started to provide entertainment for the Faculty, the organization has expanded since then, producing plays on a full scale for the entire M.l.T. family as well as residents of the Boston area. Dramashop, which is a Class B undergraduate activity, is run entirely by students with Mr. John L. Bastian as faculty advisor. The mem- bers handle all departments and activities associated with putting on a play includ- ing acting, production, lighting, stage work, make-up and publicity. Everyone is invited to join the organization which offers openings for students with or with- out previous experience in any of these many phases of theatre work. During the fall term, Dramashop pro- duced the comedy Three Men on a Horse at the Peabody Playhouse in Boston and at the time of this writing is making plans for its regular spring production at the same theater. The plav R.U.R. or Rossum ' s Universal Robots will have a special prologue P. BankharJt, R. Wehistein, M. H. Miller, and Carol Ecker rehearse a Drama Shop skit written and delivered by Professor Norbert Wiener of M.l.T. , author of Cybernetics In addition to the usual two plays a year, Dramashop has attempted to increase the scope of its activities to include open- ings for people not directly associated with the main productions. A series of one-act plays has been planned which wall serve as incubators for new talent. Radio dramas on WMIT are also in the plans, and as usual, in conjunction with the Humanities Department, Dramashop is sponsoring a series of four motion pic- tures in Huntington Hall which are free to all members of the Technology family.

Neutoii picks a horse in the Drama Shop presentation of Three Men on a Horse If ft: No caption: you wouldn ' t believe it anyway Fred Kay field at the ' ' mike ' ' When WMIT began broadcasting activi- ties on November 29, 1946 with the object of providing Technology students with en- jovable but non-distracting programs for their evenings of studv and recreating, the staff was small and the programs were entirely in the musical vein. Since then, the station has increased its staff greatly, expanded its broadcasting time from 10 to 54 hours per week, and enriched the recorded music programs with a variety of new and novel programs. Among these are the all request Friday and Saturday Nite Owl Shows, a piano program called ■ Music from a Beat up Bar, Tech Toppers which is the M.l.T. hit parade of popular tunes and the Yawn Patrol, On the air with John Fitch WMIT a morning show designed to awake weary Tech men with as little pain as possible. Then there are programs such as The Tom Cat Hour a program which informs the students of the social events occurring in and around Boston, and even a program that aids the students taking the music courses at the Institute bv presenting over the air the music for the weekly listening assignment and also musical Quiz Reviews. Under the leadership of the present Managing Board — Myles S. Spector, Sta- tion Manager; Bill Bidermann, Asst. Sta- tion Manager; Nat Roosin, Business Man- ager; Bob Cesari, Program Manager; Bill Harris, Technical Manager — the station policy of expanding service and better qualitv has been upheld. Recently cable connections have been made permitting reception at the New Dorms and plans are being completed to include Eastgate, Bexlev Hall, The Riverside Apartments and Tech ' s Fraterniti es in the station ' s broadcasting range. The technical system of WMIT is oper- ated exactly as that of a commercial sta- tion. However, WMIT differs from a regu- lar station in that all of its programs are transmitted through a network of cables rather than through the air waves. Management Board: IV. I. Harris, W. R.

Debating Society is an or- ganization designed for those Techmen who want experience ni organizing and expressing their ideas and who enjoy a good argument. After going through some lean years durin the war, the society has been ex- panding until it is now recognized as one of the leading collegiate debate groups in New England. During the past year the society has compiled an impressive record in intercollegiate competition, having en- gaged in about fifty varsity debates with leading colleges in the Pennsylvania-New York-New England area. In addition to the varsity debates, the society arranged an extensive program of practice debates for training its novice members. An inter- esting feature of the spring semester pro- gram was a debate with the Norfolk Pri- son Debate Society, held at the prison. f t W f ' Back Koiv: N. Melissas, D. B. Kret, R. Harding, J. A.

Joint Student Branch of the AIEE-IRE can look back over a successful venture into the business AIEE-IRE world of electricity and its associated fields. During the past season the branch has held thirteen meetings and five plant trips concerning subjects from the organi- zation of industry to the removal of dust and the planning of a building layout. The branch was guided through the ac- tivity of their meetings, plus a beer party and banquet, by Don Bly and John Bel- ford. The preparation of a program schedule was entrusted to Frank Parisi. Ken Olsen brought the activities to the foreground with his unusual and eye- catching assortment of posters, post cards, and letters. The secretarial work was ex- cellently handled by John Anson, Dannv Esakov, and Ken McCoy. Professors Boehne and Radford deserve bouquets for their aid as advisors, and our thanks go to Walt Kinzinger, treasurer, and to West- inghouse Electric Company for their assist- ance. W. C.

Besides these formal objectives, the Course XVII Exhibit in RiulJiiii Seven Lobby A.G.C.A. has also developed into some- thing else among Course XVII students. It is the common ground on which all of the students can meet and get to know one another. It also serves to keep the student- faculty relations at the high level they are in our course. Of course these objec- tives could not be reached unless we had the cooperation of the faculty. Dr. Voss, head of the department, has been very encouraging with his ideas and sugges- tions. By attending meetings of the Senior Chapter, an opportunity is afforded a stu- dent to see some of the problems currently facing the Building Industry and how they are handled. The result of this cooperation is that a new engineer, on entering the field upon graduation, has a more immediate practical outlook than he otherwise might have without the Chapter. E. F. Becht, F.

Metallurgical Society, as a student branch of the A.I.M.E., has as its main purpose the furtherance of all ac- tivities in the held of Metallurgy. The society, under the guidance of Pro- fessor H. R. Spedden, has promoted closer relations between the students and faculty through a series of beer parties and other informal gatherings. The feature event of this nature, is a chowder party held each spring in conjunction with the Boston Chapter of the A.I.M.E. In the past, the society has shown movies and presented speakers for the purpose of acquainting freshmen and new students with the field of Metallurgy. A.F.S. Once each month the Student Chapter of the American Foundrymen ' s Society holds a dinner meeting at the Experi- mental Foundry Laboratory. In addition to some fifty students who attend these meetings there are usually several mem- bers of the faculty present. The publicity and promotion of these meetings has been very ably handled by Rollie Ruetz, Presi- dent of the Student Chapter. The publicity and topics of discussion place particular emphasis on the potentialities existing in the foundry industry for capable and en- thusiastic technical personnel. Prominent nationally-known specialists in the man- agement or engineering phase of metal- casting production address the group on a subject pertaining to their specialty. F. E. Smith Jr., G. W.

The first is to broaden the members ' aquaintance with the technical problems and developments in the mechanical engineering profession. The second is to inform the members of what to expect from industrv, and what industry may expect from the mechanical engineer. A.S.M.E. is one of the largest student activities at M.I.T. and this vear ' s mem- bership set new records for the organiza- tion. Much credit is due the officers and com- mitteemen of the organization who gave freely of their time and enthusiasm. The efforts and assistance of Prof. William M. Murrav, as Honorarv Chairman and Fac- ultv Advisor, contributed a great deal to the success that the organization has en- joyed during the past year. The officers and committee chairmen were : Chairman (fall term), Edward J. Haves; Chairman (spring term), Robert C. Stout; Secretary-Treasurer, Malcolm Green; Cor- responding Secretarv, Peter K.

Student chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, founded in 1937, has been since its creation one of the most active professional socie- ties on campus. It serves not only as a link between the chemical engineering student and the chemical engineering profession but also as a social organization among the chemical engineering students at M.I.T. In the strictly professional fi eld, one of the most outstanding services of the organization has been the many plant trips organized during the year. With the aid of such corporations as Monsanto and Dewey and Almy, the students in the A.I.Ch.E. have been able to organize trips into such plants and laboratories as comprise the chemical industry. Another important part of the professional pro- gram was a series of lectures by speakers from both the facultv and industry. Socially, the A.I.Ch.E. has served the important purpose of allowing the stu- dents and facultv to become acquainted in a less formal atmosphere than the class- room by means of the several get-togethers held during the year. Also, this year for the first time, an A.I.Ch.E. dance was held, called the Bubble Cap Bounce, in Morss Hall. Left: R. W. Henderson and S.

Student Chapter of the Society of Automotive En- gineers is chartered by the Na- tional S.A.E. The Society is made up of students of the Institute who are interested in Automotive Engi- neering and in the new innova- tions in automotive engineering. Membership is open to any undergradu- ate student of the Institute. The Society meets once a month during the school year and at these meetings hears talks on a subject of interest to Automotive Engineers. Occasionally, in- stead of a speaker, a movie put out by one of the large automotive companies, is shown at the meeting. The Society also visits some of the near- by automobile and airplane plants during the year. During the school vear 1949-1950, the Standing: R. Kar son, IV. Fa es, J. Colleen Seated: J. Marrtin, R. Hall, President; E. Ganssle, J. Lane Society had a membership of 30. The Fac- ulty Advisor is Prof. C. F. Taylor of the Mechanical Engineering Department. The Student officers during the vear 1949-1950 were; Chairman, Ralph W. Hall; Vice- Chairman, Eugene Ganssle; and Secretary- Treasurer, Gregory Gebert.

However, be- ing a society of young college men, it not only does the aforementioned, but it also AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS provides an outlet for their social am- bitions through its gatherings and dinner meetings. This past year it was under the able guidance of Jack Wilbur, president; Chuck Miller, vice president; Bill Clause, sec- retary; and Herb Yamane, treasurer. The society held many admirable gatherings and attended many others. Besides the many social gatherings four seminars were sponsored by the A.S.C.E. where men from the professional field of Civil and Sanitary Engineering spoke to the students and tried to give them a pic- ture of what they should expect upon graduation. A held trip to the Mystic River bridge was also held. For the ensuing vear Chuck Miller, Hal Lawrence, Ken Childs, and Herb Yamane are to be the officers in charge of the A.S. C.E. Kick Row: J. C.

In addition to the scholastic requirements, election is based upon in- tegrity, breadth of interest, adaptability, and unselfish activity. The Massachusetts Beta Chapter at M.I.T. was established in 1922, thirty-seven years after the founding of the Association i tself in 1885 at Lehigh University. After finishing the spring term last year with an outing party, the members re- sumed their social activities this year with a fine hay-ride and barn dance. These, and other activities, continued the Associa- tion ' s policy of being more than merely an honorary society. Activities within the chapter and service to the Institute are both emphasized. TAU BETA PI The Massachusetts Coordinating Coun- cil for the Tau Beta Pi, in whose establish- ment last year the M.I.T. chapter took a leading part, continued its activities with a repeat performance of the Joint Initia- tion Roundup on April 14. The Council was also instrumental in arranging to The Steam Labs have the Tau Beta Pi National Conven- tion come to Boston next October.

It has expanded greatly since its founding in 1904 so that now it has over 16,000 members with 48 college chapters and 12 alumni chapters. Eta Kappa Nu offers a worth-while goal to men in electrical engineering on both the graduate and the under- graduate levels. With the Eta Kapp a Nu Recog- nition Award the society annually honors the nation ' s most outstanding electrical engineer less than ten years out of college. For the under- graduate it offers recognition to high-ranking students for additional achievements outside their technical held. The activities of our chapter here at Tech have been primarily directed towards the im- provement of student-faculty relations and the execution of service projects within the Depart- ment. The society has continued with great suc- cess the student-facultv beer parties, and the in- structor rating programs. In addition this year it has inaugurated a student-faculty luncheon program. These faculty relationships have stead- ily improved in the past few years and have now reached the point where ideas can be freely ex- changed by both groups. 63 ETA KAPPA NU A great deal of credit is due to the officers and members this past year without whose wholehearted cooperation t he achievement record of the society would have been im- possible.

In May 1 928 the M.I.T. chapter became the ninth to re- ceive its charter. There are now 31 chap- ters at colleges and universities i n the United States. The purpose of Chi Epsilon is to recog- nize and cultivate in the undergraduate those characteristics deemed necessarv for CHI EPSILON a successful career in civil engineering. To contribute to the improvement of the en- gineering profession, Chi Epsilon fosters the development and exercise of funda- mentally sound traits of character and technical ability among engineers. Chi Epsilon has maintained the prac- tice of presenting an award to the out- standing freshman entering the Civil En- gineering course. M.I.T. Active Members: Natalie J. Adelman, John H.

' ►-; c AIRFORCE ROTC The Air Force ROTC Program is de- signed to develop in college students qualities of leadership and other attributes essential to their advancement toward a commission in the United States Air Force, and to prepare them for assignment to specific duties as either a regular officer or a reservist. A Tech graduate of the program will have the opportunity to work as an officer in the Air Force specialty most closely re- lated to his major field of interest. While at MIT he studies courses having a general application to AirForce activitiesaspictur- ed on this page. ARMY ROTC The dual mission of the Reserve Officers Training Corps is to train men for success- ful leadership in event of national emer- gency, and to aid men to become better citizens. The six Army units — the Corps of Engineers, the Signal Corps, the Ord- nance Department, the Chemical Corps, the Quartermaster Corps and the Army Security Agency — offer the student a wide choice of technical specialties. In most cases the ROTC course complements professional and academic courses offered by the Institute. During the 1949-1950 school year for the first time opportunity was provided for sophomores to start technical training in the units of their choice. It is thought that the additional year of specialization will result in producing officers who will be better trained and better equipped for positions of responsibility in event of need.

It was founded at the University of Illinois in 1915 and has since grown to include ftfty- one chapters. The M.I.T. Pi Kappa chap- ter was installed in May 1947. Members are chosen on a basis of scho- lastic standing and personal character. Election to Pi Tau Sigma is not only an honor, but it is an opportunity to be of service to the Mechanical Engineering Steam-Labs Department and to the Institute as a whole. At M.I.T. the chapter was formed mainly for the purpose of establishing closer student-faculty relationship, allow- ing recognition for outstanding Mechani- cal Engineering students, and as an organi- zation for the improvement of the Mechan- ical Engineering department. One of the more important functions at the present time is the development and application of an instructor rating form which is being used in Course II subjects.

Membership is open to students and staff in certain courses who show academic achievements, pro- fessional promise, character, and personality. It is the aim of the organization to bring together men and women who share a common interest in the advancement of chemistry and who desire to honorably promote the science of chemistry as a profession. The society fulfills these aims by having members of the faculty present talks, by informal meet- ings, and by social functions. In this way, the students have an opportunity to meet the faculty and students of courses related to their own. The fraternity awards a scholarship to the most promising freshman student in one of the chemical courses, and promotes safety in all of the laboratories of the Institute. Back Row: C. W. Davis, J.

The Society also fosters a spirit of understand- ing and companionship among research workers which is typified by the phrase partners in investigation. During the past sixty-five years, chap- ters of the Sigma Xi have been estab- lished in more than one hundred univer- sities and schools of science and engineer- ing within our country. In addition there are about fifty Sigma Xi clubs in colleges and industrial research laboratories where no chapter exists. The Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology Chapter was found- ed in April, 1934. In order to make clear the nature of Sigma Xi to all interested persons, the subtitle, The Scientific Research Society of America, was authorized about 1945. The Society of the Sigma Xi publishes the American Scientist, a quarterly journal carrying both contributions and communi- cations of value to all people interested in the progress of science and engineering. 70 BEAVER KEY SOCIETY The Beaver Key is an honorary Junior society whose function is acting as official host to all visiting athletic teams. The Key is composed this year of thirty-one juniors headed by President Breene Kerr. The members are chosen at the end of their sophomore year by two methods. The majority of the members are chosen by the incumbent Key members on the basis of their school activities, particu- larly their athletic activities. The Key is usually composed of at least one member from every varsity sport in the school. The reason is, of course, that men partici- pating in a sport will have more interest and knowledge of the sport and will be in a better position to perform their Key duties. The remainder of the members are voted into the Key in the sophomore spring elections. Since the Beaver Key is host to all visiting athletic teams, the members ' duties consist of providing for the teams from the time they arrive at the Institute until they leave. Arrangements for meals, sleeping accommodations, guidance and any other service that the visiting man- ager or coach would want, are rendered by various members of the Key. Generally each sport is handled by a separate com- mittee. In addition to their main function, the Beaver Key provides part of the entertain- ment for the Junior Prom week end. For the last two years, this has been a water ballet in conjunction with Wellcsley [Col- lege. 71 Stand nig: IV. S. Connors, J. AI. Shepherd, F. W. Weitx., J. L. Burkhardt, A. A. Wasserman, D.

Whether visiting school teams garner a good or bad impression of M.I.T. is dependent on the Key in great measure. The Beaver Key is perhaps the most influ- ential society at the Institute in deter- mining our relations with other schools. With the Key doing an efficient job, our own teams and our school will be well treated and well thought of by the other colleges with whom we compete in inter- collegiate sports.

Biirkhardt, R. E. Dohroth, A. A. Wasserman The Baton Society is the honorary musi- cal society of M.I.T. and is, in the words of its constitution, an organization formed to further musical activities at Technology. Following this purpose, the Society may have a maximum of 21 mem- bers elected from those students who have made outstanding contributions to music here at the Institute; by their membership in the Society these students can con- tribute even more. The honorarv members BATON of the Society are also elected on the basis of outstanding contributions to music at Technology. The regular activities of the Society in- clude the organization and execution of the annual Faculty Dance in the fall, with music and entertainment by the students here at the Institute; the All-Tech Sing and Dance in the early spring brings to- gether informal singing groups from all over Tech for competitive singing. The Societv is the driving force which revived this idea and brought it again to its place in the yearly functions at the Institute. Toward the end of the year the manage- ment of Tech Night at the Pops falls to the Baton Society, and ticket sales as well as numerous other arrangements are han- dled by the group. In these various efforts, the Society has but one goal — to make music a more important, better understood, and more appreciated facet of the undergraduate life here at the Institute. R. L.

Aside from honoring these members for their service to their class during the Freshman year, the purposes of the Club are to help stimulate interest and sup- port for all class activities and also a num- ber of Institute activities. Club meetings are every two to four weeks, depending on whether or not the Secretary gets the cards out in time, and most of the meeting time is usually taken up in beer drinking and other related so- cial activities. The following men were active members of the Club during the past year: Howard C. Anderson, Robert M. Briber, Stanley I. Buchin, Kenneth M. Childs Jr. (Trea- surer), W. David del Valle, Lawrence L.

Eisenstadt HEXALPHA Hexalpha is a combination honor so- ciety-executive committee composed of students in Course VI-A, the cooperative course in Electrical Engineering. Its pur- pose is to sponsor activities for Course VI-A men who might not get the chance to participate in other school activities because of the schedule of alternating school and plant terms. At the beginning of each term the mem- bers of VI-A at school elect five men to Hexalpha; one fifth-year student, two seniors, and two juniors. These men re- tain Hexalpha membership for the re- mainder of their VI-A career. Two perpetual activities of Hexalpha are sponsorship of the course newspaper, Vl-A News, and the course yearbook. Sparks. Both these provide information about activities at school and the plants. ALPHA PHI OMEGA Alpha Phi Omega is a national service fraternity, composed of college men who are or have been previously affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America. The purpose of the fraternity is ' To assemble college men in the fellowship of the Scout Oath and Law, to develop friendship, and pro- mote service to mankind. Not to be forgotten are several social events held in the past year, including a square-dance, splash party, and canoeing expedition. Although small in size at present, Alpha Phi Omega has been growing steadily since its reorganization and has c ompiled an outstanding record for service at M.I.T. Initiation Breakfast: D. B.

Boat Club was formed a great many years ago at Tech for the purpose of generating crew spirit around the boat house and selling crew to the students and faculty. In carrying out these ideas the M.I.T. Boat Club sponsors picnics, dances, and banquets. A news letter is sent each year to the crew alumni of the Institute, to keep them informed of the past and present happenings around the boat house. This year the boat club contacted the donors of the three inspira- tional crew trophies and secured miniature trophies from them to be given to the recipient of the large perpetual trophy. The members of the boat club are var- sity, light-weight varsity, and oarsmen that have been out for crew five or more terms. These men form a spirited nucleus which attempts to give all oarsmen the fight which is so necessary to the winning of a crew race. TRACK CLUB Started in 1933, the Track Club is an honorary organization established to fur- ther the interests in track and held at the Institute, and to create a nucleus for carrying on track activities.

These brothers bring to us a few customs peculiar to their campuses, and they take away with them a feeling that life at Tech as viewed through the portals of 403 Memorial Drive is not so bad after all.

It looks back with pride on its long and successful record, for during these years the many members have enjoved its congenial life and its last- ing friendships. Its original home was at Number 6 Louisburg Square, where it remained for manv vears and became known as the Number Six Club. In 1914 the chapter moved to a new home at its present loca- tion, 428 Memorial Drive, Cambridge, but bv a unanimous vote of the members the name was kept as part of the old tradi- tion. The membership generally ranges between twentv-hve and thirty, many of whom are in athletics and undergraduate activities at the Institute. Academic work, although narurallv of A Delta Psi March Saturday night parly prime importance, is replaced on frequent occasion by various forms of relaxation. In the fall of each year, the club gives its annual eggnog party which is fast becom- ing a tradition at the Institute; it is at- tended by many members of the faculty, as well as by the students. The fraternity was founded in 1847 at Columbia University in New York. There are at present eight chapters known usually as St. Anthony Hall. They are located at Columbia, Yale, University of Pennsylvania, University of Virginia, Trinity, Williams, University of North Carolina, and the Universitv of Missis- sippi. Plans are now under way to dedicate the new annex, which was completed two years ago and erected by generous alumni contributions, to those members of Num- berSix who gave their lives in the last war.

ISW House located at 255 St. Paul Street, Brooklltie This year Beta Nu Chapter of Delta Tau Delta is celebrating three anniver- saries. It was just ninety years ago that Delta Tau Delta was founded at Bethany College, in West Virginia. Sixty years ago our chapter was established on the M.I.T. campus, and twenty-five years ago the chapter moved to its present location in the pleasant residential district of Brook- line. During the past six decades we have had our trials and tribulations, but many of the old traditions have been preserved, DELTA TAU DELTA and we are confident that the founders of our Chapter would still be able to recog- nize their product. Our social season was inaugurated early in October when the Actives threw a party for the new Pledges. None of us will soon forget the concoction known as Purple Jesus which was made up by our able mixmasters Stone Jones, Schmo Jerger, and Hans Eckardt. Junior Prom week end was our next big social event. Delt pins began to fly, and before the smoke of battle had risen, P.B. Butler, Bubbles Swanson, Cud- dles Bean, and Scar Eubank had fallen by the wayside. Three week ends later the Delt House was declared Off Limits tor the annual all campus beer brawl. The theme of the party was altered somewhat from the past to an Apache party, but through the foam and sawdust, it could still be recognized as a good old beer brawl. All these social events make it difficult for the Delt athletes to stay in shape, but they seem to manage pretty well. We are Satne place, new faces: Standing: 0. C. Eubank, J. W. Gaylord, R. M.

Hank Sharp is Captain of Lacrosse, and Leakv Dyke was Captain of the Sophomore Football team. Activities are not unrepresented at Delta Tau Delta either. Carl Mellin is President of the T.C.A. and we are well represented in other organizations such as Tech Show, Athletic Association, Beaver Key, Quadrangle Club, etc. Thus one more year has passed in the history of Delta Tau Delta at M.I.T. The future is not uncertain. The underclasses have showed that they possess the spirit and the drive necessary to carry the Fra- ternity onward to bigger and better things. BROTHERS ' 50: Paul B.

But, more likely, it will be the little things that will keep D.U. alive in our minds — songs on Thursday night, an intramural football game, straw hats, a trip to the Savoy, a beer-baseball game with the girls across the street, a Christ- mas party for needy kids, a talk with a visiting D.U., cigars from a new sweet- heart, and the roar of the dorm fan.

They are few in number but their absence will be felt bv the remainder of the fraternity. Bill Fisk, the fraternity president, has been active in school and house affairs. He has been a member of the school track team for four years, and has appeared twice in Tech Show productions. Around the house his persistent good humor has made him the leader of parties, while his good fellowship earned him the right of directing fraternity affairs. Paul Lobo, the worker of the house, has long been admired for his diligence, good words, happy countenance, and exem- Time-out for a photograph 94 plarv character.

George Krusen, the solid citizen of Lambda Chi, has always seen that the house has been in good condition. His serious nature has often guided our ef- forts and helped us to maintain a mature outlook. George worked for the T.C.A. for several years and contributed a good deal of his time to their successful opera- tion. Bill Chambers, the old man of the group, married and a father, has spent three years in Westgate. We have always looked forward to his appearance at the house because of his laugh-provoking chatter and his proverbial ' Here ' s the word, bovs. In his senior year he was accorded the honor of being elected presi- dent of the professional society, the Pro- peller Club.

FounJid at M.l.T. mo Local Frattrnity House located at 400 Memorial Drive, Cambridge The Phi Betes have gone far this year to prove that Tech is not Hell. At least not entirely. Between week-end parties, foot- ball games, extracurricular activities, and issues of Voo Doo, they have managed to wander across Massachusetts Avenue a few times to extract a bit of knowledge from the classrooms and labs of the Insti- tute, and they can frequently be found wildly studying beneath stacks of books and reams of paper, but this has not de- tracted greatly from their somewhat care- free existence. The manv visits of many gals to 4CXD Memorial Drive has always had a stimu- lating effect on these young men, and so, in order to promote this tyipc of entertain- ment, an unusuallv successful string of parties was held, climaxed and anti- climaxed by such gala events as the Hal- loween costumeparty, the Christmas party, the two annual House parties, and, of course, the facultv tea. In other directions, i.e., extracurricular activities and sports, the interests of the Phi Betes have been many and varied. Voo Doo was well represented bv the Man- aging and Features Editors and the Adver- tising Manager, and the Tech Engineering Netcs bv the Art Editor, the President of Tau Beta Pi, as well as members of the glee club, the Tech, the Hobby Shop, nu- merous course societies, and the Associa- tion of Women Students.

Intramural basketball finally saw the house athletes get into high gear. With first-stringers Evans, Thulman, Mattson, Reeves, and DuBois, ably supported by freshmen Wagner and Hilton, the team swept its league undefeated. In the round robin we ran into stifFer competition, however, and tied for third among six finalists. In activities, Howie Larsen and John MacMillan were elected to Tau Beta Pi while Glenn Battaglia and John Bradley were chosen for Kappa Kappa Sigma and Pi Tau Sigma, respectively. R. D. Ecc es, J.

Seen peering over the castle walls surrounding the house were goblins, ghouls, and assorted mon- sters busy watching the party-goers. In- side, under a huge likeness of the Devil himself, the band played. Some started wondering about the potency of the punch served until informed that the multitude of little black-winged objects resembling bats suspended up the stairwell were really there. After a brief lull during which some members even managed to get a little studving in, came the Christmas party. At Time on our hands: J. F. Batter Jr., R. J. Hinds, R. M. Haak and H. H. Gunther Below: A rather universal past-time; J. M. Tarbox, A. Strom, R. L. Foster, D. J. Terp, R. Walter, T. Taylor Jr. Mti the party we tried a new game which showed some semblance to pin the tail on the donkey, but eventually wound up as pin the tail on the social chairman It seems that the sense of direction of some of the participants was a trifle off. In the midst of the affair a rumbling was heard. A moment later the window to the air shaft opened and out stumbled a be- draggled looking Santa Claus. Apparently the chimney was too small and he had to take an alternate route. In intramurals, despite the efforts of our prophetic athletic chairman who maintains that things will be different next year, we did not have an exception- allv outstanding season, but it must be admitted that our spirit was high and that everyone enjoyed participating. The job of keeping the house in good shape has always occupied a prominent place in the minds of the members. Every month we have our work day on which everyone pitches in and devotes a part of his time to painting, cleaning, sanding, waxing, and polishing to help maintain the line appearance of the house. In this and other ways we are constantly striving toward our goal of making Phi Mu Delta a finer and more enjoyable place to live. BROTHERS ' 50: Donald Ashton, John C. Conzett, Eugene R.

This is the year of the House ' s first Moonlight Formal, held at the Somerset Hotel. A hayride, preceding the formal by a day, helped to make one of the best Phi Si ' s week ends in recent years. Ronnie Greene ' s Flapper Party, featuring scantily dressed young ladies of the Roar- ing Twenties Era, H. K. Rising ' s wedding to Joan Kinsey, and Columbus ' annual ride are other highlights of the year. These, and many other lighthearted mo- ments did much to push aside the heavy shadow of the Institute which hangs eternally over graduates and undergradu- ates alike.

Not only was it the tenth anniversary of our present house, but it was the thirtieth anniversary of our chapter. These events were properly com- memorated in a big alumni reunion week end, under the able direction of Marty PI LAMBDA PHI Miller. The gala celebration included the initiation of the pledges, a formal dinner and dance, a basketball game, and numer- ous cocktail and beer parties. Highlight- ing the whole occasion was the Saturday night dinner, which was attended by Dean Baker and several of the charter members of the chapter. The week end will be long remembered by all who participated. Naturally, the spring social program also included a highly successful Monte Carlo dance. As usual, thousands of dol- lars were won and lost, and everyone had a swell time. On the sports front. Pi Lam fared well this year. Art Auer and Dick Landy dis- tinguished themselves in varsity compe- tition. Art shot a 293 for the school rifle team, a new all-time school record, while Dick had a fine season on the frosh wrest- ling team.

In the intramural sports program this year, the SAE ' s captured the Football trophy and the Swimming trophy; and as this publication goes to press they cast an ominous threat for the trophies in Volleyball, Track, and Squash. All Tech men give hasty recognition to the fact that if there ' s a good party to be had, it ' s to be found at 484 Beacon Street.

T. 1919 House located at 222 Babcock Street, Brookline This year, the 40th that S.A.M. has been a national fraternity, looks to be a good one for XI chapter. The year started with a bang socially with a swell party on October 22. Athletically, it looks like we will have good teams representing us in all kinds of intramural competition. As usual, we have quite a few men active on school activities. Fall Surrealist Party SIGMA ALPHA MU Social Chairman, George Weiss, after his successful first party, has planned several big parties for the year. The first party was a costume affair, the theme be- ing surrealism. Costumes and decorations were supposed to come from the subcon- scious. Ed Arthurs and Stan Chaikind came dressed as women. Ed probably makes a better woman. Other interesting costumes were: extra arms on Bob Brod- sky, lights and other paraphernalia on Howie Schwartzman, some art work done by Mel Cerier ' s date, Charlie Kaplan as a split personalitv, Paul Stern and date as cigarette and match, Ed Lew all band- aged up, and many other costumes that could not be described. Athletically, we expect this year to be successful. Ed Levy, Wolf Haberman, and Larry Isaacson are out for s vimming, track and crew, respectively. Dick Green- hill, Beryl Borsook, Charlie Kaplan, Jerry Meislin, Ed Arthurs, Barry Lichter, and many others did a swell job on the intra- mural football team. Although we lost our first game in overtime, we feel that we have a good basketball team this year. Under the direction of Jerry Meislin, our athletic chairman, we expect to have good teams in all intramural sports. Almost all of our men are in some acti- vities at school. Activities that our men work for include Voo Doo, The Tech, Tech Engineeiug Neics, WMIT, Techsapoppin, Tech Show, Walker Memorial Commit- tee, Lecture Series Committee, and various other committees and organizations. Ac- tive in at least a couple activities are Stan Chaikind, Dave Levington, Mel Gardner, 114 George Weiss, Dave Ganis, and many others. New at our house is Sol Salomon, a dis- placed person from Yugoslavia. Sol is at M.I.T. on a scholarship and is a swell fellow. This year evervbody is working hard to make our scholastic average the best on campus again. To achieve this end we expect to receive help from such old re- liables as Bill Tobocman, Mark Nelkin, Mike Hoffman, Beryl Borsook, and Jerry Levine. Looking around the house we realize that our seniors, Dave Levington, Dave Benenson, Stan Chaikind, Beryl Borsook, Mel Gardner, Warren Marcus, and Bill Tobocman, will not be with us next year. We will be sorry to see them go, and will miss their companionship, advice, and steadving influence in the fraternity.

Take the one that ushered in the 1950 Spring term for instance. It all started the evening the Senior Class decided to celebrate the discovery that there were only 200 days SIGMA CHI remaining before their graduation day, the day that they would emerge with a degree and the whole engineering world to conquer — starting at $275 a month. Even Dale Carnegie would have been put to shame by the persuasive technique that Arry McLeod and Jet-Job Stallard were using on George Dickson to get him converted to the favorite pastime of the group that had just finished singing Those Wedding Bells ' in honor of Andy Snow ' s marriage. They pointed out repeatedly that being a Man of Distinc- tion required practice in holding high- ball glasses, and mentioned Cheek and Jacoby as examples of the fine results that followed weekly trips to a good cocktail lounge. As the tension before finals mounted, people started to wonder if they were cracking under the strain. Gene Oster, for instance, was sitting in his room playing with something that looked like a tinker toy — maybe it was for organic chemistry, but no one would know that at first Holding the note are, standing: J .

Even Gordy Chow-Hound Ingvversen became so preoccupied with his business courses that he missed some extra food at dinner, forcing the Steward ' s Department to revise its buying schedule for several weeks. Then the Brink ' s Holdup news was announced. Few will forget that memorable snowy Sunday when Shor- ty Harris had to stop sending signals across the street to B.U. because there was such a rush of people to the window to see what was going on outside on Beacon Street. Nobody could understand why the policeman at the corner was annoyed by some fraternity men who paraded by wear- ing pea coats and masks. It was ob- vious that the laundry sacks they were carrying did not contain any- thing valuable. BROTHERS ' 50; Warren M. Cheek, George H. Dickson, J. HaroldoR.Falcao, C.John Jacoby III, Robert M.

Who could forget the great times had by all at the many informal house dances, Tech Cabin, the Christmas, Halloween, and Eggnog parties, J. P. Weekend, the I.F.C. formal, and above all the close coopera- tion and fellowship that makes for such a well-balanced college life? 1950 saw Sigma Nu becoming more and more active at the Institute. Larry Garthe in basketball and Paul Grady in hockey were vital men in their respective sports. Denham Corwin and Paul Van Alstyne were sharpshooting with the varsity rifle squad, and the wrestling season saw John Moga, Bob Ebeling, Pete Ammon, and Harry Krimbill on the mat for the fresh- man team.

Bill Bcnfer, Bill Griffiths, Jerry Champlin, Jim Shepherd, Morris Anderson, and Gus Rohrs. Otto Tonnesen was with the swimming team, and Chuck Lockerby worked on the Technique staff. Bill Benfer again held an important posi- tion as chairman of the I.F.C. Fraternity Row Committee, and Jack Hetherington was active for the fifth year in the Archi- tectural Society. Jerry Champlin and Den- ham Corwin were honored by their elec- tion to Kappa Kappa Sigma, the honorary chemical society. Our own meteorologist, Bill Bednar, again sparked the Voo Doo staff. The presentation of the White Rose Formal at the Hotel Kenmore was again the outstanding event of the year for Sigma Nu. Engineered by Dirk DeVries, and danced to the mellow music of Chap- pie Arnold, it was acclaimed by all as one of the finest dances of the year at the In- stitute. fif ' - J.K. Clark Jr. J. A.

The li- brary looked especially attractive with the Intramural All-Sports Trophy gracing the center of the mantelpiece, accompanied bv the basketball and football trophies. It did not take long for the troops to get into the swing of things, and cries of Studv conditions! could be heard all THETA CHI through the night. However, the men of Theta Chi are red-blooded American bovs, and, after the first few davs of thrashing at their desks, discovered to their delight that some of the nearby girls ' schools were overflowing with gorgeous females. Scouting parties were promptly dispatched and a goodly number of these fair damsels were imported for the Pledge Dance on Oct. 1. Strengthened by this and by other informal gatherings, the brothers found some time off to devote to extracurricular activities. We are well represented by key men in the Athletic Association, Voo Doo, M.I.T. Musical Clubs, the varsity swim- ming and golf captains, and others on the basketball, crew, hockey, and swimming teams. The rest of the brothers keep fit by active participation in the intramural sports program throughout the year. The brothers and pledges find plenty of time to relax along other lines, as is evi- denced bv the not-too-slow depreciation on the bridge tables and the television set. The kitchen is still the most popular place in the house at 11:30 p.m., but at times the pledges forget that we don ' t keep a cow in the back yard, much to the dismay of the milk-drinking brothers. Highlighting the social season this fall will be the annual Hangover Partv. After enjoying the glorious revelry of last Spring, appropriately (or inappropriately) called the Djijd, a supernatural crea- tion of super-intellectuals, who would want to miss the Hangover? Not I, for one. It is hard to forget the surrealistic decorations and the wonderful catalysts served at our parties. Soon after Hang- over comes our time off for an overnight visit to Tech House. Following this comes J. P. week end, the Thanksgiving reunion in New York, Techsapoppin, and our Christmas Party. Looks like we ' ll have to hit those finals, men! BROTHERS ' 50: Charles A.

The pledge dance this year honored an exceptionally line group of future Theta Delts, and due chiefly to the efforts of our Social Chairman, Bob Rothen, it was tremendously successful. The Orgy , as usual, turned the house into something re- sembling an Al Capp cartoon, and every- one enjoyed themselves to the accom- panying odor of sawdust and beer. The Our more serious moments, personified by Jim Broderick THETA DELTA CHI party held jointly with Kappa, our sister charge at Tufts, celebrates the founding of the Theta Delta Chi Fraternity. The house itself is in the best condition in years, due to the spirit demonstrated by the brothers in staying well past the end of the spring term to repaint and paper many parts of the house which were badly in need of repair.

This particular fraternity has a hell of a good time, and manages to get almost all its members through Tech besides. We have had no one large party this year, but prefer rather to stretch our efforts out into one continuous string of small Saturday night affairs. With the com- pletion of our modern new play-room in the basement, violence can continue around the clock without disturbing the rest of the house. We have only four men graduating this year. Bruce Zimmerman, better known as Daddy, has been living with young female wife and small male child in West- gate West, which 1 am sure he leaves be- hind with fond regrets, as he steps into the brutal world; Hal Harris, who seems to have sprouted wheels of late, is heading with wheels and tube manual for the North Woods; John Harrington, who has had more dates than anv other whole 124 class of Tech men (all with the same girl), takes awav with him a lot of talent that has kept Voo Doo filled to the gills with cartoons and stories, and has a real B.S. besides (Course XV BS, that is). Hal Noreen has put his giant person into his pvgmv automobile and vanished into the Boston fog. Dick Willard, better known to his affectionate and bleeding associates as Willie the Whip, kept the troops in line for the first round of the school year as President. He was valiantly followed by Windy Hunter, the Scrooge of Bay State Road, who damaged the bank books more than the backs of the brethren. Tech is Hell, but we ' ve got our own little inferno going here; for vou have to hght hre w-ith fire.

Preston Jr. This past year has been an active one for the I.F.C. both internally and socially. The group stands as one of the soundest organizations in Technology ' s system of student self-government, for it is here in the monthly meetings that members from INTER-FRATERNITY CONFERENCE each house gather for discussion and solu- tion of mutual problems. Look to the Future might well have been the keynote for this past year in the I.F.C. Under the able guidance of the executive committee consisting of a chair- man, secretary, treasurer, and two mem- bers-at-large, two new houses were helped further on their way toward full mem- bership in the conference. Also, in coopera- tion with the alumni groups from each house and the Institute Architectural Department much headway was made over the past twelve months toward the possibility of a Fraternity Row at M.I.T. The I.F.C. Spring Fonnal Through the development of such com- mittees as the House Manager ' s and Stew- ard ' s Committee, many useful suggestions have aided the individual fraternities in attaining much smoother house operation. As a reward for exceptional scholarship, scholarship plaques are aw arded each term to all houses having cumulative averages above the all-school average. Since the institution of this award, there has been keen competition among the houses with an average of nine houses receiving the plaques and many others close behind. The I.F.C. at Technology enjoys a truly envious position among the similar groups found on other American cam- puses, for although the Institute exercises a firm hands off policy regarding fra- ternity government, the Dean ' s Office has always been ready and willing to give any advice or assistance possible to the I.F.C. The w onderful work between the I.F.C. ' s Investigation Committee and the school in settling matters regarding fra- ternity and school public relations is an excellent example of just such coopera- Dancirig to the Music of Skip Totitie 127 tion. The stable balance of such a policy and its many advantages are appreciated more year after year when the conference ' s representatives attend the National I.F.C. over Thanksgiving. It is then by compar- ison with other groups that we realize the fortunate position we here at M.I.T. enjoy. Do not gather from the functions des- cribed above that the I.F.C. is all work and no play. The social highlight of every Spring term to the fraternity man and his friends is the I.F.C. Dance ' Week End. Under the sponsorship of the I.F.C. and the direction of the I.F.C. Dance Committee, this week end is consummated in Saturday afternoon cocktail parties climaxed by a very colorful formal dance held at the Statler Hotel. It is here that every fraternity man sees the tangible benefits derived from the efforts of a sound Inter-Fraternitv Conference. Founded at M.I.T. 1947 House located at W Bay State Road, Boston The fall term of 1949 opened the door on the Alpha Club ' s most successful year on campus. After Rush Week, which saw the addition to our ranks of a fine group of pledges, we began our earnest pursuit of fun and knowledge. We owe a great vote of thanks to our able Social Committee ALPHA CLUB for putting over the October ' ' Revenooers Raid in such a big way. Special thanks to one Jacob Worth whose fascinating beverage disappeared in very short order. Don ' t think that the week ends were the only times for fun. The mayoralty con- test in Boston brought out the talents of our pro-Curley men, Gil Steinberg and Arnie A. Kramer. And on the night before Field Day, several brothers and pledges took pleasant excursions about the coun- tryside. Transportation, however, was provided only one way. To every year of happiness is added the sadness that comes when we have to lose our seniors, and this year ' s graduation took another bunch of swell guys.

Blondin On April first of last spring, the Pegis Club moved quarters from its temporary- residence on Newbury Street to a per- manent home at 518 Beacon Street. The house was properly warmed with festivi- ties that the members will no doubt recall with a wistful twinge in their old age. The ancient edifice wanted rejuvenation in a bad way and all summer long those industrious souls who stayed on for sum- mer classes slopped paint and swung hammers in their spare time to give the place a new outlook on life. In a mad three weeks before fall registration the members worked hard to get the house in «. PEGIS CLUB tiptop shape before the start of classes. Their efforts resulted in a truly miracu- lous transformation and gave the fellows well-earned satisfaction and pride. There are still some improvements to be made. Almost finished is a recreation room in the basement, and the painters, inspired, no doubt, by the modern color combinations displayed in building seven, have been busy covering walls and anything else with paint. The Pegis Club has done quite well in sports and almost all of the members have found one way or another to display their athletic abilities. In softball last spring the team tied for first place in their league but lost the play-ofF. The football team worked its way up to the semifinals and was nosed out by a stronger team. No spectacular string of victories was piled up in basketball, but the team had a better than average season. The interests of Pegis men are many and varied. The house is infested with musi- cians. Six fellows play the piano — all types from the longest of long-hair to boogie. Artists of the flute, piccolo, vio- lin, squeeze-box, and mouth organ are also in abundance. A band of sorts gives musical entertainment — sometimes of dubious harmonic qualities — at parties and the like. Most of the fellows are active in extracurricular school activities. They are represented in track, lacrosse, crew, swimming, sailing, and the pistol Testing the Super Base Boost: J. B. Hampshire, G. V. Colby Jr., R. G. Breed, J. J. Davidson, T. K.

The most outstand- ing of the many social events was the Hal- loween party. Even Sgt. Gordon was there. Fellows and gals came in all sorts of costumes: generals uniforms, Roman togas, hillbillv outfits and even a lively pachyderm, trunk and all. After crawling through a tortuous passageway to gain entrance, there was dancing and all sorts of refreshments. This annual partv prom- ises to become a tradition with the club.

Our Seventh Anniversary was celebrated with the some-dav tra- ditional dungaree party, which featured Mr. Bates ' Special Cucum- ber Punch, and a large dose of home-grown dramatic talent. The pattern in less frivolous fields is also being continued with energy and foresight. The house shows continual improvement, not only in such ways as redecoration and repair, but in the less tangible lields of organ- ization and cooperation. MEMBERS ' 50: Harrison S. Campbell, G.

' s dormitories. Hidden amongst the undergraduate slide-rule pushers are the men of M.I.T., 1400 strong. Not all students spend twenty-five hours per day at the books, and something must be done with that extra hour. The catalog covers the first twenty-four; we ' ll tell you about the other. The dormitories are a place to live as well as study, and everv effort is made hv the students and administration to create an atmosphere conducive to the development of a well- integrated personality. Under the revised constitution, the dormitories are capably administered by the Dormitory Board through the leader- ship of Frank M. Baldwin, assisted by the Dormitorv Committee, composed of repre- sentatives from each dorm unit, with an executive committee of Daniel L. Mc- Guinness, chairman; Nathaniel Roossin, treasurer; Donald Rose, secretary; Max Let ' s get together, men Schubert and William Bidcrmann, mcm- bers-at-large. These groups arc supple- mented by the individual hall committees, such as the New Dorm House Committee, the Barracks House Committee, and by the Hall Chairmen, acting through their Floor Chairmen. Special committees are set up under the Dormitory Committee to provide special services for residents. First is the Actions Committee, under the excellent leadership of Sandy Sussman, which functions between the residents of the dormitories and the management. Com- plaints concerning service, theft, and other irregularities are handled through Model aircraft jan A Refreshi)ig Pause this committee which maintains close contact with Mr. Baldwin, Director of Dining and Housing, and with the three unit managers, Mr. Sheldon, Mr. Watson, and Mr. DeCosta. This registering of grievances also works in reverse whenever the man- agement finds that privileges or furnishings are being abused. Misunderstandings have been elimi- nated in many cases by attempting to disseminate correctly the rules and policies of the Dormitories through the Hall and Floor Chairman to the resi- dents. This year action has been taken on such matters as porter service, paint colors for the halls and rooms, telephone service, thefts, fire drills, and various petitions for extra facilities. It is the function of the Athletic Committee to promote and supervise all athletic contests and Stan Benjamin at the piano Dan McGuinness presides at a meeting of the Dortn Committee Bob Arbuckle and Art Freeman greet the morning sun Paul Seidell , Joe Van Horn and Roy White games in which dormitory residents parti- cipate. In conjunction with the M.I.T. Athletic Association, the Dormitory Ath- letic Committee under the chairmanship of Alan H. Vort this year is sponsoring a broad intramural sports program. This program got under way in Septem- ber when the dormitories entered six teams in the A. A. sponsored intramural touch-football tournament, a New Dormi- tory team being eliminated in the play- offs for the championship. Immediately following the completion of touch-f oot- ball season the dormitory men took part in the intramural basketball competition. Twelve quintets were sponsored by the Athletic Committee. Although none of them were strong enough to capture the all-Tech championship, one team each I wonder how wide the doorway is from the New Dorm, Old Senior Ht)usc, and the Barracks finished high in the league standings. Rounding out the fall- term competition was the run-off of the dormitory table-tennis tournament, for which a handsome trophy was awarded, the winner being one of well over 150 contestants. During the Spring term, ath- letics got off to a fast start with four teams entered in the intramural squash tournament, and ten dormitory teams participating in the volleyball competi- tion, simultaneously. Further spring sports include the old stand-by, intramural Softball, the intra- mural swimming meet, and the Dormitory Bowling Championship for which indi- vidual and team prizes are awarded. The tennis tournament provides a chance for students to compete in both doubles and singles. Pillows at Ten Paces 137 . P. BeiikarJ and C. W. Vaughan jr. compete for attention at the moon eclipse It is the aim of the athletic program of the dormitories to provide the facilities for and to stimulate participation in athletics. For that reason, emphasis is not placed upon fielding a winning team, but rather an attempt is made at all times to keep the dormitory teams well balanced so that poor as well as good athletes may compete, the only requirement being a desire to play. Through the dorm athletic program it is hoped that the spirit of fellowship and sportsmanship may be advanced, for these are possessions every bit as important to the engineer as his slide-rule. Under the new constitution, the House Committee, under chairman Hal Siegel, Moving construction machinery under the cover of darkness Inaii Cole broadcasts proceedings at the moon eclipse assumed the responsibilities of the past Dark Room, Burton Room, and Open House Chairmen. This year the committee extended the Open House privileges to all week ends and holidays. The darkroom remained in Nichols as a majority of the users were in favor of retaining that loca- tion. Under a generous budget, the dark- room took on a new look, including a paint job, a new and extensive ventilating system, and much new equipment. Television once again was featured in the Burton Room. Magazine subscriptions, w hile curtailed, were extended to include all Dormitory Lounges. The radio-phono- graph was moved to Crafts Lounge, where the rugs were removed, and the lounge was converted for dancing. For the first time quantities of popular records were added to the Dormitory Collection in Crafts for the convenience of party-goers, thus offering dorm residents still another service. The Dormitory Judiciary Committee is headed by Nathaniel Roossin, ex officio, a member of the Institute Committee ' s Ju- diciary Committee (Dorm. Comm., Jud. Comm., Inst. Comm. Jud. Comm., House Comm.). The Committee handles dis- ciplinary actions primarily concerned with the dormitories. Under the new constitution, the Pub- licity Committee was created and given the functions of publicizing the affairs of the Dormitories as a whole, and the Social Committee in particular.

According to the revised constitution the old Dance Committee was merged with the Tea and Dinner Committee. With the combined functions of the Social Commit- tee we have tried to enlarge our official contacts with the surrounding women ' s schools.

As part of this year ' s freshman indoc- trination program sponsored by Institute Committee, it was proposed by them that a special Freshman Acquaintance Dance be held to give the frosh a chance to meet the girls from the colleges around Tech. At the request of the Institute Committee, the Social Committee agreed to carry out this dance. It was held on Saturday eve- ning, October 8, with music by Ken Reeves. Using its many resources the com- mittee was able to secure 550 of the love- ]ot Van Horn, Jerry Michaels and Paul Aiasser pull a Michelangelo HO Cold tear trarmhi up in the barracks licst women within a fortv-mile radius of Tech. Wellesley, Simmons, Bradford, Pine Manor, Lasell, RadclifFe, Boston Univer- sity, and others sent girls in large num- bers. The gym was decorated to accom- modate the overflow crowd, and WMIT piped music upstairs to it. Six gigantic freshmen ties suspended from the columns furnished the motif for the occasion, and colored balloons were in abundance. The evening was a huge success, even though many upperclassmen were admitted when it was found that the frosh were incapable of handling the number of women present. The climax of a day of contests between the Freshman and Sophomore classes took place at the annual Field Day Dance where the rivals shook hands and came to peaceful terms. Upperclassmen attending upped the total attendance to over 400 couples. In keeping with the spirit of this occasion the Techtonians furnished the music. This year it was decided to strive for originality in our decorations and two large gloves were made and suspended over the dance floor, each being illuminated by several spotlights. During intermission the Techtet sang, and official field day results were announced. 141 Ralph Romano about to leap ni the ' ' Wolf- hunt uith Bob Abel son setting the trap Don ' t look up, boy, that ' s uater heading your way A gold mine of future dates, the Dorm ' s Fall Acquaintance Dance One of the most popular dances of the year has always been the Dormitory Christmas Formal and this year ' s affair was no exception.

Another successful Acquaintance Dance was held in February with over 300 girls and ample men attending. Ken Reeves ' band was again on hand and novel enter- tainment was provided by the Bemis Boys, complete with several guitars. Their informal songs were the hit of the dance, receiving the rapt attention of everyone. In addition to planning and giving dances, the Social Committee sponsors two teas to which members of the faculty, their wives, students, parents, and friends are asked. The purpose of these teas is to provide a congenial atmosphere for the furtherance of student-faculty relation- ships. As its part of the dorms ' plan for open house, both teas will be given simul- taneously this year, one in the Lounge of the New Dormitory and the other in Bur- ton Room of the old dorms. In this manner the expected crowd of visitors can be ac- commodated. Another way for dormitory residents to get to know their instructors A Voo Doo Sales campaign.

At the time that this article goes to press, the Social Committee is examining the possibility of re-establishing the tradi- tional Dormitory Formal Banquet and Ball. A major social event for Dormitory Residents in past years, the pressure of the war forced its discontinuance. The pro- gram for this event included an elaboroate banquet followed by an address by a well- known speaker. After the address the evening festivities were concluded with a formal Ball. At this time, tentative plans include music by one of the better bands, and dinner by a catering service. All this is only one phase of dormitory life.

Dorclan might be complimented for a valiant effort to give Tech back to the Indians. Dormitory men are to be congratulated for their out- standing support of one of America ' s leading radio stations, none other than WMIT of course. Manv other activities were influenced by an influx of dormitory men, especially the freshmen who seem to benefit by their closer association with the upperclassmen, something noticed less last year.

Melissas THE GRADUATE HOUSE The MIT Graduate House The role of the Graduate House as an M.I.T. living facility is perhaps best ex- pressed by the words of Dr. K. T. Comp- ton on the occasion of the establishment of the Grad House in 1933 — the most natural training comes from free social intercourse between men of different inter- ests but of equivalent intellectual out- look. In addition to providing an atmosphere conducive to serious studv, the House The EieiiDig Paper is enjoyed in the lounge offers diverse facilities for relaxation and cultural and social stimulation. The music room, with its large well-balanced record collectio n, is the frequent habitat of the many serious music lovers in residence. The well-circulated book and magazine collection of the Crafts Library, largely non-scientitic, attests to the diverse inter- ests of the residents. The much-used pho- tographic darkroom, as well as the table tennis and handball facilities, bear out Dr. Ashdown helps himself to a snack this diversity of recreational activity. During the past year the social commit- tee under Erwin Loewen and James Ham has conducted a very successful well- rounded social calendar. Beginning with an acquaintance dance in the Campus Room where house members had the op- portunity to meet 150 girls from near-by colleges, the program offered, at frequent intervals, informal Saturday evening But- terv Dances and Sunday afternoon Tea Dances in the Campus Room Foyer, as well as two barn dances in Lexington. Continued into its second year was the very popular custom of holding Friday afternoon beer parties early in the fall term for each floor of the House, with free beer and pretzels for all — primarily as a means of fostering friendship among neighbors in the House. The climax of the social season was reached with the annual Graduate School Spring Dance, held in the Princess Ballroom of the Hotel Somerset. The activities of the Graduate House, from the student ' s point of view, are under the general supervision of the Executive Committee, a group of five residents elected each spring, and who meet once each week with the House Master. This year the committee has had among its members James Angell, Joseph Byrne, Robert Dudley, Darby Fulton, Erwan Loewen, John O ' Neill, and Morton Sil- berstein. A Lunch-Time Conversation Dancing in the Campus Room 5:15 CLUB Frank Davis, Dave Kalletider and Dave Gushee play the hand The 5:15 Club is the representative of the commuters of M.I.T. It is the only group which caters to the needs of the commuter, with opportunities for meeting his fellow commuter socially, and for engaging in social activities and intra- mural athletics. The club room, in the basement of Walker Memorial, is in use by members from 8:30 in the morning until 6:30 in the evening. Lunch time finds many of the members eating in the club room. All through the day, members come down be- tween classes to engage in friendly card games (bridge is the great favorite), table tennis, checkers and chess. There are available in the club room copies of most of the current popular magazines to enable the members to keep up with cur- rent persiflage. Problems of the individual commuter at Tech are extremely difficult to solve. Not only must he keep up with his stud- ies, as do all Tech men, but he must also T.

C. McLaughlin, W. F. O ' ConneU Jr., A. Oreiiberg, T. B. Bishop What ' s ieit? The 5:15 Club attempts to help the commuter solve these problems by offer- ing an organization which, functioning as a group in extracurricular activities, is unique in that it is attuned to the singular needs of the commuter. One of our more studious members 153 Athletics: The 5:15 Club ' s athletic teams have enjoyed moderate success. Teams have been entered in football, basketball, volleyball, and baseball competition, in intramural leagues. Dave Gushee, the athletic chairman, deserves a round of thanks for his constant effort to keep the commuters on the ball athletically. Socials: The 5:15 Club is extremely for- tunate in having had an extraordinarily good year socially. In Al Cohen, the so- cial chairman, the Club had a man to whom nothing seemed to be impossible. He was the driving force behind the very Halloiceeii Ball at Walker Memorial One of our more active members Executive Committee: A. C. Odian, T. B. Bishop, C. D. Tapley, President; T. R. Keane, A.

His efforts to make the All-Tech Dance a big success will be long remem- bered . Governunnt: The Executive reins of the Club were held this year by the capable hands of Claude D. Tapley. He was as- sisted by Al Bloom, an excellent and The All-Tech Dance Your guess is as good as ours erudite vice-president; Tom Bishop, an efficient and capable (not to mention trustworthy) treasurer; and Tom Keane, secretary (he had his own fountain pen). The two members-at-large on the Execu- tive Committee were John Caramall, whose bridge game was too good, and Allen Odian, whose table tennis, while excel- lent, was not too excellent. The 5 ' .IS Club has endeavored to do its best for the commuter and likes to think that it has succeeded in keeping him from becoming a greasy grind. The Club hopes that it has helped to make him as much a Tech man as all the rest.

Veterans ' Housing Projects known as Westgate and Westgate-West are located at the western end of the M.I.T. campus. The Westgate project is composed of one hundred semi-permanent one- and two- family dwellings, while the Westgate-West project is made up of seventeen barracks-type units each with a capacity of ten families. The majority of the families living in the Westgate units are students at Tech and many of them have children. Community projects such as a Baby Clinic, a Nursery School, and a community laundry, are available to the families in the project at nonprofit prices. The Westgate and Westgate-West projects are indeed a tribute to the men who plan and run the affairs of the Institute when one real- izes their long-range vision in developing future M.I.T. students.

Geiger, Director of Athletics The past few years have seen the begin- nings of the growth of Athletics at M.I.T,, a growth that is coming to affect more and more students with every passing day. The group responsible for the administra- tion of this program has its home in Bill Shenkle and Boh Brown turn out publicity material ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Building 18, and is appropriately called the M.I.T. Athletic Association. The Association is made up of the student managers, team captain, and the elected and appointed officers. It is responsible for the administration of Field Day, and for the past three years has sponsored the Techsapoppin week end, a happy com- bination of sports contests and social events. In basketball, hockey, and other sports scheduled for Techsapoppin, the games are opening games for the New England area, and for this reason the week end is beginning to have some significance in the extra-curricular life of many local institutions, a factor which could very easily make T.P. the Dartmouth Carnival of the early fall. Particular emphasis has been placed this year on the development of the publicity program. Until now the publicity depart- ment has been the first to suffer reductions in appropriations if funds were needed for other purposes. Under the present set-up, the department is doing some hne work. External publicity is being handled by Warren Berg, coach of Baseball and an old hand at newspaper work. The numbers of our releases in the local papers have multi- plied many times, and it is most gratifying to see this important phase of Association work come into its own. The student pub- licity manager is responsible for the dis- semination of information on the campus, and in cooperation with other publicity departments of the Association a set of attractive permanent Sports at a Glance bulletin boards have been designed and 160 built for the purpose of keeping the stu- dents informed of athletic happenings. In respect to the intramural program, significant changes have taken place in the number of students participating. It is gratifying that so many students have elected to take advantage of opportunities to compete in the intramural program, and an item of first priority in the coming year will be the relining of this program to al- low for increasing participation and ex- pansion into sports until this time not offered in intramural competition. Physi- cal and mental conditioning derived from intramural sports are important to the proper balance of a student ' s life, and every student is invited to participate. A Board: Back Row: R. L.

Athletic program. The Athletic Board has as its major function the formulation of policies to insure the most effective athletic program for the student body. In addition, the Board acts in an advisory capacity to the President ' s Office, to the Athletic Association, and to the Director of Athletics and his staff. It cooperates with the Undergraduate Bud- get Board on the formulation of athletic budgets. The present members are: Professor H. 162 Guyford Stever, Chairman, and Professor Ronald H.

H P O P I N ,L CANDID SHOTS OF THE TECHSAPOPPIN WEEKEND I N T R A M U R A L R O V I D A C I O N O O CREW Most any afternoon during the Spring you are likely to hear incomprehensible shouts coming from the direction of the Charles River, and if you will look closely, you will see three or four long thin boats, each driven by eight powerful oarsmen. Alongside this group you will also see a gray coaching launch. Look closely, for that nautical group is Tech ' s Crew, coach- ed by one of the country ' s foremost coach- es, Jim McMillin. And if that afternoon is a Saturday afternoon, you will probably see more than four of these long thin Dean Baker, President Y tllian, Coach McMillan ami Dr. Compton at the ceremonies ivelcoming the new Tech shell W ' Dr. Killian christens the new addition to the Tech fleet.

That is race day, the climax of weeks, months, and even years of rowing, sweating, and training. ■ .-• IftBH A bit out of sttp, but we ' ll improve Bv the time that first race came around, the heavy varsity crew was a tremendous and powerful group, though rehitively inexperi- enced. The lightweights, as usual, were still a little overweight, but were a promising crew, full of spirit, and well-experienced. The Frosh filled with the inspiration of their coach, went on to show the rest of rowing that they were not to be overlooked. They were a tremendous and powerful crew, comparing in size to the Varsity boat. The first race on April 23 arrived and the first test of the heavy crews with it. The race was for the Compton Cup, a perpetual trophy presented to the winning crew by our own Dr. Karl T. Compton. Harvard, Princeton, and Rutgers crews were the other three crews to compete for the Cup, each facing their first test of the season. All crews met the test, for the test is not in the winning, but in the friend- Coach Chuck Jackson sweating it out with the boys Ready, Stroke. ' P a. rt. r « r J. R. Saxe, M. J. Lebowiti, H. C.

The highlight of the day was the fight between the Harvard and Tech Frosh to cross the finish line first, the former edging out our boys by ] • the length of a shell! As the season progressed, this fight to the end continued, each time both these boats leaving all other con- tenders out of the running, each time the Harvard Frosh crossing the finish line by M to J a boat length ahead. April 30 saw the first triangular race for the three Charles River Crews, Boston University, Harvard, and M.I.T. In this race Boston University was the only squad vet to be tested in the new season. Onlv a week following this race the Adams Cup Regatta was held, again on the Charles River, with Navy, Princeton, and Cornell traveling to Cambridge to meet Harvard and M.LT. The highlight of the season was on Mav 14, when the heavy crews traveled to Syracuse University, the lightweights to Princeton, each for the Eastern Associa- tion of Rowing Colleges Regattas, where all the leading crews in the East meet in competition. The trophy, which is present- ed to the high-point winning squad, is the Rowe Cup, named in honor of the late Allan Winter Rowe, one of M.I.T. ' s most ardent supporters of rowing. With this race, the Spring season officially ended, but it was not the end of rowing for the year. The Poughkeepsie Regatta, known to people over the entire country, was yet to come. Came June 19, the shells, equipment, and launch having been sent on, the boys packed up, piled into their cars and headed for Poughkeepsie. For a week more they lived, ate, and rowed together at Regatta Row, the group of boathouses on the Hud- son River. There thev found the friend- 170 The Varsity Beavers on a Back Breaking Grind ships of oarsmen from all over the country, as far west as California and Washmgton. Race day at Poughkeepsie was a sight to behold; across the river lOO-ft.-high rock walls marked with the colorful letters of the competing schools, on the banks of the river thousands of spectators, and on the river itself, twelve crews in brilliant shirts. This was truly the climax of row- ing in 1949, perhaps the climax of all sporting competition. The head coach of Crew at M.l.T. is Jim McMillin, President of the Rowing Coaches Association, and former oarsman on the winning 1936 Olympic Crew. Then there is Chuck Jackson, Freshman coach, past Captain of the 1941 University of Washington Crew, and Howie Feist, ex-M.I.T. and Princeton oarsman. These are the men who teach boys how to row, but most of all, help mold these boys into men. And forget not the name of Pat Manning our rigger and assistant coach, 171 whose name is known and respected throughout rowing. Remember that group of boats you saw on the river, for they carry the name of M.l.T. and the spirit of sportsmanship wherever they go. Going Out for a Workout i Wayne Carter leads the field in the 110-yd. loti- hurdles Tech ' s outdoor season opened with Brown University coming to Cambridge for its annual spring meet. Technology ' s po verhouse team started where it left off in 1948 bv turning back Brown to a tune of 72 ' o to 62%. Tw o Cardinal and Grav athletes collected 29 points between them which had a great deal to do with the Tech victory over the boys from Provi- dence. Al Dell Isola ' 50 won the 100 (10.1) 220 (22.0) 440 (50.1). In the TRACK double furlong Dell won over Jon Tobcv, by over 10 yards in very good time for his first competition. Jack Adams ' 50, the big field man, scored 14 points in four events — Shot Put (40 ' 3 )lst, Hammer (159.63 2)lst, Discus (128 ' 2 ) and Javelin (175 ' 6 ). They were outstanding but with such men as Wayne Carter, Roy Roth, Gordon Hunt and Ed Olnev, we added five more firsts to the total. It showed Jack ' s balance, and then the seconds and thirds through Hanzie-Lobo, Belton, Whitney, Thompson, Jones and Byork gave Tech a good start for 1949- The following Saturday Tufts track team came to Briggs Field after their unbeaten season indoors. The Tech bovs expected a tough battle after the Jumbos ' great season but after the first race, the hurdles, Tech was never threatened through the afternoon. Wayne Carter scored firsts in the high and low hurdles and Tech collected nine first places to win over Tufts by a score of 83-52. The big event of the afternoon was the quarter Back Kou: R.

Then to top it Edward Olnev was second in 49. 4 to beat out the Tufts favorites who finished third. Then Dell won over Furey again in the 220-yard race. Jack Adams was the big help to Tech ' s win with three firsts and a second. Jack Marvin, Press Jones and George Thompson took all places in the vault. ' With all three dual meets in the back- ground, we now come to the New Eng- lands at Tech Field with twentv-two col- leges trying for the crown. This year Rhode Island as usual was the favorite but Brown upset the dope by winning over Rhode Island by a score of 33 points against Rhode Island ' s 22 3 and Tech was in third place with 18}2; in 4th was New Hampshire 15, Holy Cross 15, Bowdoin 14, Wesleyan 11, Springfield Start of the 2-mile run 7 ' .-,, Boston College 7, Connecticut 6, Tufts 6, Williams 4.

When Adams was credited with the throw, it created a new Institute record in the hammer throw; the old In- stitute record of 158 ' 6 set by George Dandrow back in 1921. This was the second time he broke the old record, his first record breaker was increased to 159 ' 6% in the dual meet with Brown. Up atid over with T. L.

During the same meet the Frosh eked out a win over the Tufts Freshmen with a score of 27-28. George Grenier, the Frosh Captain, was first finisher with a time of 19:10.0 for the 3-mile course. On October 22, the Varsity and Frosh took a trip to Amherst to compete against the U. of Massachusetts during its Homecoming Week End.

BASKETBALL With 10 games of their 16-game sched- ule completed, the Beaver basketball team shows an unimpressive 3-7 won-lost re- cord. However, two of those losses were hv one and three points, and the decisions could easily have been in Tech ' s favor. Two of the other defeats came at the hands of a very strong Brown University quintet, recently rated second only to the Holy Cross Crusaders as the best in New England college hoop circles. The Engineers ' opener was one of the features of the Techsapoppin week end. Opening against Boston University, the Engineers got off to a bad start, losing, 57-37. Their next time out, Tech held a strong Brown quintet on even terms for 25 minutes of play, but bogged down in the last 15 minutes to lose, 72-54.

For the third time in three games Soph Herb Glantz was Tech s high man. Paced by their 6 ' 4 center, Lou Morton, the En- gineers gave a tall Tufts five a tough time, but eventually succumbed by a 75-63 score. Then came Tech ' s first bad break of the year. Playing the Coast Guard Academy the Engineers, sparked by Jack Corrie, went down to a 41-38 loss. But the Beavers bounced back to defeat Northeastern, 59-47 for their second win of the season. This contest saw Lou Morton and Jack Corrie play the major parts. Rich Rors- chach set the example in the second game against Boston University, but he didn ' t have enough help and Tech lost, 51-39. Then came the highlight of the season to date. Playing against heavily-favored Trinity College in the opener of a Boston Garden college doubleheader, the Beavers had the fans sitting on the edge of their seats. Trailing early in the game by scores of 19-4 and 27-12, the Techmen put on a tremendous comeback which missed a victory by the narrowest of margins, 57-56. Herb Glantz sparked the Engineers in the Garden game with 14 points. Jour- neying to Providence, the Beavers were no match for Brown and lost, 69-46. Diminu- tive Leon Hong sparked the Tech attack. What goes up, must come doun Jump-ball The Tech five broke its five-game losing streak against Worcester Polytechnic In- stitute when, led bv Herb Glantz, they defeated the Worcester aggregation, 59-51- Other members of the squad who have been of considerable assistance to Coach Ted Heuchling are Ozzie Honkalehto, Jack McMillan, Mike Xacev, Hank Ho- horst and Larrv Garthe. With six games remaining, the Techmcn have already matched last vear ' s victorv total of three. The Beavers will probably win at least half of their remaining games. Basketball seems to be on the upgrade at Tech. Sophomores Herb Glantz, Mike Nacey, Larry Garthe, and Hank Hohorst will form the nucleus of what should be pretty good Tech teams in the next two years.

Returning after exams to face the re- maining half of their schedule with a none too bright record of four losses as against only two victories, the Varsity took hold and won the remaining six meets. Their first victim was the University of Connecticut by the score of 58-17. The next dav both squads met Tufts, the Freshmen winning, 48-18, and the Varsitv, 38-37. During the week the Freshmen dropped one to a strong St. George ' s team, 55-20. The week end again found both squads in action.

One o ' clock on the afternoon of October 29 saw the opening of the 49th Annual Field Day with the swimming meet at Alumni Pool. Helping the Sophomore Class to victory in this event was their setting of a new record in the Medley Relay Race of 1 :24.0. Leading by three points at this stage, the Sophomores went on to take the Crew Race easily by at least two boat lengths. Repeating their previous year ' s victory in this event, the Class of 1952 won the Tug of War in two of the three pulls. Next, the fleet-footed Sophomores showed their heels to the Class of 1953, easily winning the Relay Race. The Football Game found the Freshmen almost upsetting the strong and perhaps overconfident Sophomore team, but the gallant effort was not quite enough as the Sophomores won with a score of 20-19- Trailing by a score of 17-0 at this point, the Freshmen went into the climactic FIELD DAY event ot the day — the Glove Fight — seeking at least a token victory over their opponents. Twenty minutes later, with the remnants of pants, shirts, tape, and gloves strewn over the field, a great cheer arose when the final count of 90-85 showed the Freshmen to have won the Glove Fight, their only victory of the day. The traditional Field Day Dance in the evening, attended by the battle-scarred veterans of the day ' s activities, was cli- maxed by the presentation of the Field Day Cup by the Manager of Field Day to the President of the Sophomore Class for its 17-4 victory over the Freshmen.

An over-all record of four wins and eight losses was registered against representative New England col- lege teams. The spirit of the club was personified in Capt. Llovd Marshall, the team ' s star pitcher. Despite a leg injury that lamed him considerably Lloyd continued to pitch good ball, winning three games and losing four. The leading hitters on the team were catcher Gene Lubarsky, left fielder Barnev Byrne, home-run leader with three circuit blows, third baseman Joe D ' Annunzio, and center fielder John Mac- Millan. Stan Moulton won one game and lost two, as the number-two hurler. In addition to arranging an excellent local schedule, retiring manager Edwin McLeod did the groundwork for the Spring Vacation trip to Virginia. This Third baseman Thompson about to tag out an ambitious Huskie base-runner work was carried through by the present manager, Alfred Petrofsky. The seasoning gained last year, and the benefits of the training trip in the way of conditioning is likely to lead the team to a fairly suc- cessful season this year. MP Abscut from ptc flirt L.

The season extends throughout the first eight weeks of class, and games are scheduled against colleges of the New Eng- land area. Eighteen formal games and several scrimmage games were scheduled throughout the season. Of these nine were Varsity- games. The behavior of both teams was irregular and they won and lost games in a most unpredictable manner. The Varsity hooters won two, tied one, and lost six games; the freshmen won three, tied one, and lost five games. The highlight of the season was the game against the Universitv of Connecticut, last year ' s champion of the New England league. The Techmen kept a lead of two to one until the last minute of the game; Connecticut tied on the whistle. The trip to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, N. Y., was another high spot of the season, onlv overshadowed by the high score by which the team lost (7-1). The outstanding players on the Varsity team were its goalie P. Silveston ' 51, its left fullback and captain D. Dimit- riou ' 50, and its left outside H. Falcao ' 50. Ralph Thornton all alone Back Row: J. Hoegfdtd, Coach; M. J. Rabins, F. A. de la Vega, A.

Hockey enjoys a unique position here at Tech in that, with the exception of la- crosse, it is the only genuine contact sport currently engaged in bv M.I.T. athletes. Hockey is a man ' s game, and the men who came out this season have done very well by themselves. The opening game this year was the Techsapoppin game with Harvard Uni- versity. The Crimson had an easy time of it in the first period, putting in five goals. These proved to be the margin of victory, as the Engineers came back in the last two periods to hold the visitors even. The team, at its greatest strength of the season, was successful against American Interna- tional College, Tufts, Bowdoin, and then Tufts again. The remaining games, against Northeastern, Boston University, Bow- doin, and Boston College, were lost to the better trained clubs, but not without a fight, as each game was going strong down to the last bell.

The Techsapoppin match against Tufts college was the first of the two victories. Winning with a score of 22-13 the Techmen scored four pins against their opponents. The following week the matmen went up to Harvard where they lost, 24-7. The only M.I.T. pin was made by the 136-pounder Johnny Hansen who kept up such performances WRESTLING for the entire season. It was during this meet that Larry Foley and Tom Callahan both sustained injuries which kept them out the following month. At the beginning of the spring term Brown U. visited Tech and defeated the wrestlers, 21-10. The only Tech pin was made by Larry Foley who had recovered from his injury. Tom Callahan who had also )ust returned, won his match despite a painful knee injury which he sustained in the third period. On February 25, the Beavers went to Springfield where thev lost again, 16-14. The last meet of the season was held here with the U.S. Coast Guard Academv. This was Tech ' s second victory to the score of 14-11. The climax of the season was the New England Tournament held at New London at the Coast Guard Academy. Out of the eight teams competing. Technology tied for fifth place with Wesleyan. The only finalist was Johnny Hansen whose chest was injured during the final match, leav- ing him with second place. Left: An M.I.T.

The high point of the season was a 3, 2-3 2 tie with a strong Harvard seven. The Freshman record was not so bright, however; injuries were responsible for much of their difficulty. All home matches this year were played on the Woodland Country Club Course. M.I.T. was the host team at the annual Eastern Intercollegiate Round Robin which was played at the Blue Hills Country Club. Only one senior was on this year ' s team and all other varsity men are expected to return for the 1950 season. Upon the com- pletion of the 1949 season Jack Corrie was elected to captain the team through the 1950 season, facing such teams as Harvard, Holy Cross, Brown, Dartmouth, Tufts, and Boston University.

Although the season got a late start, the team fired 25 pistol matches and 15 shoulder-to- shoulder matches. Early in the season, the team instituted a new practice bv entering the Greater Boston Pistol league. Entering this league as the M.I.T. Pistol Club the Beavers had the opportunity of tiring against the best pistol shots in the Boston area. At the end of the matches with this league, which is composed of ten teams, the M.I.T. team stood fifth in the league, while several of the Engineers had very high individual standings. Undoubtedly, this practice w as very valuable experience and should enable the team to do even better next year. MIT 1283 MIT 1243 MIT 1268 MIT 1184 MIT 1252 MIT 1239 MIT 1193 SCORES N.Y. State Mar.

With two championship matches still remaining to be fired, the varsitv has a record of eleven wins in twelve dual matches and four wins, a second, and a third in tournament matches.

Coach Mar- tin ' s team defeated Tufts and Adelphi, but bowed to Dartmouth, Williams, Harvard, University of New Hampshire, Springfield, and Stevens. Since the team was comprised mainly of sophomores, next year ' s squad will be well armed with experi- enced players. Early in the season the team lost three of its best players; Tom Toohey, Don Lea, and Tom Tsotsi, the captain. Tsotsi, one of the best defense LACROSSE players in New England, suffered a knee injury in a pre-season game. He played second-string goalie throughout the season, however, and his courage and spirit boosted the team when most needed. Although the Varsity played eight games, Jerry Elkind, manag- er, was able to schedule five meets for Dennis Allegretti ' s J. V. Team. The J.V. ' s defeated Tufts and lost to Dean Academy, Governor Dum- mer. New England College, and the University of New Hampshire.

The Nauti- cal Association and the white sails of its boats have become as much a symbol of Technology as the stately white pillars at the main entrance. The organization, envisioned bv Professor Erwin Schell, NAUTICAL ASSOCIATION was founded and equipped in 1936 by a group of interested alumni and friends Since the time of the N.A. ' s birth, student interest in sailing has increased rapidly, and with it the organization has grown from a membership of seventy to its present membership of one thousand. With the institution of the Freshman Athletics Program two years ago, the Association has grown more rapidly as many freshmen chose sailing as the ath- letic elective. Today it is the largest under- graduate activity at M.I.T. The officers of the Nautical Association are: John B. Lawson, Commodore; How- ard H. Fawcett, Vice Commodore; Robert B.

Ehner preside at a nieeting of the Frosh Council Off for a day of fun and relaxation at Freshman Camp The Class of ' 53 started their Tech career with a splash, the splash being those men at Freshman Camp unfortunate enough to resemble a Sophomore Presi- dent. The rivalry with the Sophomores was the keynote of all Freshman activity preceding Field Day. Numerous Sopho- mores were seen wearily returning to Tech in the wee hours of the morning. On Field Day the ' 53ers fell before a more experienced Sophomore Class. ' 53 put up a good show in all events, a better showing than was apparent from the final tabulation. The Freshman Council elected Peter Stark, Secretary-Treasurer, Gilbert Gardner and Merrill Ebner Institute Com- mittee Representatives, and Dick JafFe Recording Secretary, to be responsible for the class organization of Field Day. The work of the second term was some- what more serious. The meetings of the Council were increased to three per month. -- - t-: i«ss :v - - CLASS OF 1953 The Council elected Merrill Ebner Secre- tary-Treasurer, Gilbert Gardner and Dick JafFe as Institute Committee Representa- tives.

The officers were acting as the executive committee of the class, and the elected section leaders composed the council. An unexpected difficulty arose in the selection of the section leaders this year as the class has been divided into sections by courses and consequently not all sections had the same number of men. Some sections did not elect a representa- tive to the council but their number was small, and all in all the turnout for the council was very good. First event on the social calendar of the sophomore class of 1952 was the Schlitz Singers Swing, a beer and hot-dog party. The partv was a huge success. Professor Magoun was the principal speaker to the great delight of the beer drinkers present. Theta Delta Chi fraternitv put on a skit, allegedlv with the cooperation of Miss ' oo Doo of 1949 Qerry Hathaway) and the Reverend Swanhaueser.

The Prom was scheduled to coincide with the annual MIT open house on May 12 and 13- It will be a two-night party, one night formal, and one night informal. The election of Junior year class officers in April was the next thing in the air. There was a lively race and a close one. John Fitch was elected President; Edward Margulies, vice president; Stanley Buchin, Secretary-Treasurer; and Hal Lawrence and Jim Stockard, Institute Committee Representatives.

The executive committee of the class was composed of the following men: Gerry Burns, president; Bill Shankle, vice-pres- ident; Stan Marcewicz, secretary- treasurer; Art Wasserman and Walt Casey, Institute Committee representatives; Bob Gooch, chairman of the publicity com- mittee; Frank Mayer, chairman of the Field Day and sports com- mittee; and Harry Lowell, chair- man of the historical committee. This year, as in the sophomore year, the executive committee was assisted by the Junior Council in making important deci- sions and in carrying out many of the jobs which had to be done. The council met bi- weekly and served not only as a legis- ts ' tz wj of the Deiil and the Gumhltng Den at Hell Night lative bodv but as a source of ideas and as a barometer of class opinion. In all respects our junior year is one which will last in our memories for many years. Right: Formal Night of the JP Weekend Below: Out of the Devil ' s Mouth a! T. J. McLeer, J. S. Gottlieb, |R. W. Mami, J. T. Weaver, W. 0. Khicainioii Significantly enough, the mid-century class, the Class of ' 50, represented the turning point in postwar enrollment. Exceeded only by the WWI Class of ' 11 we numbered over one thousand strong and the preponderancy of veterans imbued us with a maturity which has been reflected in the success of our extracurricular en- deavors and our collective scholastic achievement. Our division, as Freshmen, into two CLASS OF 1950 groups, one starting the regular academic year in September 1946, and the second starting the following Februarv and con- tinuing through the summer session, may explain our defeat as Freshmen in Novem- ber 1946. United for the first time as Soph- omores, we confidently engaged the Fresh- men of ' 51 on Field Day 1947. The tie in athletic events was broken, to our dis- favor, by the still discussed decision of the Field Day Committee to award the much contested glove fight to ' 51- Undeterred, we turned to social activity and as sophomores held the successful Club 50 at the Hotel Bradford in town. The semi-formal was the proving ground and pilot model for our gala Junior Prom staged the following November. J. P. Penguin was the motif at the Friday Formal at the Statler with Johnny Long holding musical domain, while the lowly Shmoo, literally hundreds of them, en- ■ Mug-Lift ' M.ary Modess, Ann Cummings uith Don Brah serving couraged our informal frolic at the Armory Saturday. ' 50 was the postwar class that rees- tablished the prestige of the stag beer party on campus. Muglift — junior and senior — with its permanent reminder displayed on the mantelshelf, will long remain the symbol of an evening of brew, fun, and comradeship. Let it not be said of 50 that it limited its activity to these ivy covered walls, how- ever, for only the terror of the A and H bomb will eclipse that abortive plot to demolish the sports mecca of our vener- able up-river rivals. Then too, the annals of Commonwealth jurisprudence will di- vulge the incident of the rampaging omni- bus which shattered the bucolic tran- quillity of the Columbang picnic out at Lake Chauncy Park. In our short stay, we ' ve seen the physi- cal environs of Tech come up to maturity. The factory back of the dome has been dressed up, the Briggs playing fields have blossomed smooth and green. The great hole has seen its fulfillment in the Charles Hayden Library, the Cage shelters athletic, reveler, and speaker alike. East- gate nears completion, and, we as seniors, have inaugurated living in the New Dormitory. These four short years, so crammed full of life and living have seen us also fulfill our maturity. As we go down the last few months toward the festivities of Senior Week and the dignity of Commencement, we can look back with Touch football at Columhang satisfaction at a wonderful experience which we have created among ourselves and one which we will carry with us for the remainder of our lives. The Mid- Century Class has made a mark on the Institute fully in keeping with its sig- nificant insigne ' jO. SENIOR WEEK COMMITTEE The culmination of all undergraduate life at Tech is the one week preceding graduation which has come to be known as Senior Week. This period falls between final exams and graduation day. Not only does it embrace several social functions which are a just reward for the four gruel- ing years, but also provides an opportunity to bid adieu to many genuine college friends. On the Friday night of exam week the Senior Ball is held in the well-appointed Louis XIV room of the Hotel Somerset. As will be appreciated, since exams are gone forever, the tone is one of extreme exuberance and gaiety. An informal dance is held on Saturday evening in Walker Memorial. On Sunday the celebration is moved outdoors as the Senior Class leaves Boston for a beach party, picnic, or boat trip. Three consecutive days of continuous excitement and merriment calls for a brief pause for rest and recuperation. Thus no functions are scheduled for Monday or Tuesday. The stag banquet is held on Wednesday evening at the Cage and true to the mood of all stag affairs a very re- laxed and informal atmosphere is main- tained. Several members of the faculty Beer by the bucket Beer and boats, a rough combination arc invited with one serving as Toast- master. On Thursday the class picture is taken in the Great Court after donning caps and gowns. Following the picture, Bac- calaureate Services are held in Walker Memorial. Class Day exercises complete with skit hv members of the Senior Week Committee, Beaver Orator, and induction of the Class into the Alumni Association, are held in the afternoon. Graduation exercises in Rockwell Cage on Fridav morning, June ninth, are the grand climax.

We make automatic controls for pres- sure, temperature and liquid level. Our controls include regulators, control valves and control instruments. Most of these are designed and developed for the process industries - oil refining, paper, chemical and textile — and often engineers from these industries work with us on control equipment design and application. Our products range in complexity from the simplicity of a pipe strainer to the in- tricate pneumatic workings of a propor- tional - reset displacement type level controller-transmitter. Masoneilan dia- pliragm control valves range in size from J e orifice to 14 flange and will handle almost any fluid, at high pressure drop if necessary and high or low temperatures. Masoneilan pilot-operated and direct- operated regulators hold pressures con- stant in steam, oil, air, water and gas lines. Masoneilan pressure instruments (controllers, pneumatic transmitters, re- corders) work with pressures from 30 Hg. vacuum to 3000 psi; temperature in- strument ranges are from — 100°F to 1100°F. Since we make complete control systems for many processes, full respon- sibility for correct system design, instal- lation and operation centers in us. Ex- perience with control systems, as well as 65 years of making their individual ele- ments, is behind our reputation. Find out about Masoneilan controls.
