Editors' Note.We were exceedingly sorry not to print

any Lounger last week. The Lounger wasmuch disgruntled when he looked in our lastissue and found that no space had beenallowed for the expression of his invaluablediscourses and words of wisdom. As a mat-ter of fact so much happened at the Institutelast week that all the available space wasrequired for its tabulation.

iHE decision of theSophomore Class inrefusing to supporta baseball team thisspring is unfortunatein that it is prema-ture. It appears that]Dr. Pritchett favors

baseball among the lower classes at theInstitute, if played under -certain specifiedconditions. Therefore, as the matter stood,those voting against the continuance of base-ball opposed the informally expressed opinionof The Faculty, while those in favor of sup-porting a team directly antagonized the wishesof the Advisory Council. Neither of thesepositions comes into the province of thestudents at the Institute. Although delay atthis season of the year is objectionable to theorganization of a team, the subject shouldhave been allowed to rest until Faculty andAdvisory Council arrived at some definiteconclusion, the class then concurringg withthis decision. As it now is, after a short andheated discussion, the class voted not to sup-port a team this year, with the result that alarge portion of the class is dissatisfied. Thejustice of such dissatisfaction must be allowed,because of the lack of thoroughness withwhich the subject was treated. Dignity, andabove all,' deliberation, should 'be the fore-most characteristics of the class meetings.

A j HILE the spirit ofrivalry exhibited atthe Freshman dinner

A l l HIDmay be gratifyingfrom one point ofview, the result of

.· h w the Sophomores en-terprise, if it is worthyof that name, can butreflect upon the man-

agement of the Dinner Committee.In the first place, their interest was

evidently not great enough to arrange for

T

i

i

240 TI-IE 1KCI-Ithe customary .competition: for the, coverdesign, a fact to be regretted, as such acourse has come to be a recognized customat the Institute. Then, besides, it wouldseem that even a small amount of attention totheir duties would have revealed the fact tothe Committee that the type-set form hadbeen changed by the Sophomores. A com-mittee's duty to a class is a serious thing andif men are willing to assume that duty theclass should hold them responsible for thefulfillment of the same.

ITH this :week's

T TECH is p r in t e dmatter relating tothe Annual Spring

"' 4 7 1g/," '~ -Concert, and as thesystem of placingthe seats on sale issomewhat changed

/ O w ,li I ! 1 from that of formerL" t'7,~ years, those inter-

ested in the concertwill be glad of this information. While weare looking forward to the three events in thedramatic line which are to take place thisSpring at the Institute, it is well to rememberthe Spring Concert and Dance which has al-ways held an important place in the happen-'ings of Junior week. This year no pains arebeing spared to make this concert fully equalto those of the past, and as -these' have beenof a high quality, THE TECH looks forwardto a very satisfactory- and successful perform-'ance this year, and it is hoped the demandfor seats will be satisfactory.

1904 Class Dinner.HE Freshman Class held theirfirst annual dinner last Satur-day evening at the HotelThorndike. Unlike mostaffairs of this kind, interestdid not lag during the hour

U~ lor two previous to the timeset for the dinner. For thefirst time in many years somefew members of the Sopho-.more class interfered withthe arrangements of the din-

ner committee, and endeavored to make theaffair as unpleasant as possible for the Fresh-men. It was the intention of the Sopthomorecontingent to have used a menu made. upaccording to their own ideas, 'and to forciblyprevent. the President of the class and thespeakers on the toast list from being presentat the dinner. 1'he former intention was suc-cessfully carried out. The menus used hadpainted on the cover: "Victorious Sopho-mores," "Class of 1903," " Thorndike,"" March 30, I90I." The toast'list was alsosomewhat mixed up. Their latter intention,however, of forcibly detaining the speakers,was fortunately discovered in time, the per-sons in question warned, and escorted to thehotel by several of their classmates. Thegloom occasioned by the substitution of thefalse menus was counterbalanced by the foil-ing of the plans against the speakers, so thedinner itself passed off very enjoyably, per-haps more so than if there had been no ex-citement previously.

President Homer opened the after dinnerspeaking by making a few well-timed re-marks on the Class of '04, after which 'heintroduced Mr. H. W. Bull, the toastmasterof the evening. Mr. Bull demonstrated hiscapabilities -for that position and kept theinterest where it should be, during the re-mainder of the evening.

"T The Freshies Future at Tech." FuiltonCrary spoke on "Athletics," and laid deservedstress on the share which the Freshman;classmust assume in the upbuilding of, athletics atthe Institute.

B. Blume spoke on "Our Missing Class-mates." Much to the joy-of the Freshmen,this toast did not have a significance it mighthave had, if the Sophomore schemes had.been successful. As it was the "MissingClassmates " were able to be present and hearthe speech themselves.

The "toasting" was well finished by ex-cellent addresses by Messrs. R. T. Spameron " Our New President,"^and Mr. Gould on"Ancient History." During the evening asubscription to the amount of one hundredand seventy dollars was raised for theWalker Memorial Fund. This is very nearlythe amount similarly reached by the Sopho-mores at their dinner. A smaller subscriptionwas also taken for the support of the base-ball team.

Among the sixty-four present were: Messrs.C. S. Homer, C. S. Rodgers, P. Smith, J. W.Cobb, T. Wakefield, S. A. Macluny, H. W.Bull, E. Harrah, C. C. Sperry, D. B. Bary,B. Blume, J. G. Metcalf, G.

Weaver.

Dinner of the Miners.The dinner of the Mining Engineering

Society, held at the United States Hotel onthe evening of March 28th, well deservedthe success that it scored as being a most en-joyable occasion. Thirty-two enthusiasticmembers were gathered round the festiveboard, and though the talk of the eveningwas at times of a serious and scholarly ten-dency, fun and cheer, too, had their place inabundance. i.

Louis S. Cates, president of the JuniorClass, presided as toastmaster over the post-prandial exercises. The toast list of theevening was opened by Frank- D. Rash,president of the society, in an able and well-delivered address. Francis K. Baxter, thesenior class marshal, next spoke on ";'Fus-sers" in a humorous vein that was greetedwith rounds of applause. 1" Caves and CovesAround Tech," by Caspar A. Schmidt,abounded in clever hits on the "Miners."The formal speeches of the evening wereconcluded by interesting and reminiscent talesof the ,' Summer School of .9o00," by CharlesI. Auer. Music by Eric W. Bailey and PaulE. Chalifoux added considerably to the lifeof the dinner, and almost everyone presenthad some clever story to relate.

Those present were: Louis S. Cates, FrankD. Rash, Paul E. Chalifoux, C. F. Green,A. Healey, G. B. Manson, Otis I. Godfrey,Frank D. Rathbun, Eric W. Bailey, RobertWhite, Jr., James F. Pell, Henry C.

Success of the Tech Show.The phenomenal demand for tickets for

the Tech Show guarantees for it this year afar greater success than has been scored byeither of its predecessors. Indeed it is nosmall feather in the cap of college studentsto originate in America parts in an operawritten by so famous a pair of authors asthose of " Pinafore" and the " Pirates."That the public is realizing that the Techstudents can put forth a production that iswell worthy of their support, and that theycan give a play that will vie with any profes-sional performance, is admirably shown by,

241'-

II -11 - _� � _- - - _

the widespread applicatitis for seats thathave already been received by the manage-ment.

The central incident of the "' Grand Duke,"that is Sure to [create intense interest, is in thenature of a new fbrm of duel called 1" statu-tory." - By a truly Gilbertian device, twogentlemen, each of whose existence is anoffence to :the other,. can fight a duel underproper legal supervision with'a pack of play-ing cards, each drawing one to the appropri-ate accompaniment of elaborately tremolomusic. The drawer of the lowest card ispromptly pronounced permanently dead to theworld, and his widow and heirs proceed tothe settlement of his estates. - Several gentle-men in the opera successively become victimsof the Statutory Duel, with Gilbertian results,amatory and otherwise. This leading featureof the show is.to be admirably delineated inattractively designed posters that will shortlybe produced for Boston's gaze.

The roster of the show's management forthe present year is now complete and com-prises Allen Winter. Rowe, General Man-ager; James Bradford Laws, Stage Director;Kent Tillinghast Stow, Business Manager;William Jason Mixter, Assistant Stage Direc-tor, and. Robert White, Jr.,. Press Manager.

The Spring Concert and Dance.The annual concert by the Musical Clubs

will be held in Paul Revere Hall, Wednes-day evening, April 24th. The distribution oftickets will be conducted according to thescheme of last year, as follows:

ist. Tickets to the concert-and dance willbe sold only to holders of certificates. Eachcertificate is exchangeable for one ticket onpayment of one dollar at the regular sale ofseats. Tickets for the concert alone do notrequire certificates and may be procured atthe public sale April i6th.

2nd. Certificates may be obtained only ofclub members. As each member of the clubs

has at his .disposal but five certificates, it isevident that early 'application is essential toprocuring tickets.

3rd. The choice of seats will be regulatedin the usual way, and priority of- applicationfor certificates does not guarantee prefermentin the reserving of seats.

4 th. The purchaser of one-dollar ticketsto the concert is entitled to an equal numberof dance tickets.

As the demand for tickets is always largeand the supply limited 'it will be well for allto carefully note the foregoing rules so as to'avoid all confusion. The management willbe pleased to give any required information.

Class Day Committees.

At the last meeting of the Class Day Com-mittee tihe following sub-committees wereformed. Committee on finance: Holmes,Chairman; Baxter, Bickford, Coburn, Gar-rett, Lawrence, Perry, Murray, Seaver,Walcott. Committee on decoration: Baxter,Maxson, Florsheim. Committee on engrav-ing: Baxter, Higgins, St. Clair.

The matter of wearing caps and gowns at'Class Day had been referred to PresidentPritchett for advice. He reported that assuch a move on the part of the students wouldnecessitate the same move on the part of theFaculty, it did not seem advisable. TheFaculty do not wish to wear caps and gowns,feeling that the high position of Technologywarrants a more civilized mode of dress.

Civil Engineering Society.

The Civil Engineering Society met onMarch 29 th. Mr. Lammot duPont, 'oI,spoke on the topic, "Reconstruction ofBridges in Service," and Mr. G. E. Russell,'oo, on "-Steel Dams." The date of theannual dinner to be held at the United StatesHotel has been changed from April ;oth toApril 9 th.

President Pritchett's Washington Trip.

The Washington Society of the Massachu-setts Institute of Technology in conjunctionwith the Alumni from Baltimore and Norfolk,tendered President Pritchett a reception Sat-urday evening at the Cairo, at which ladieswere also present. Later in the eveninglight refreshments were -served followed byPresident Pritchett, bearing on the WalkerMemorial and also by Col. C. D. Wright andMr. Henry McFarland. Secretary Long andSeffator Lodge were unable to be present.The reception formed a most pleasant oppor-tunity for the President to meet the Alumni.Monday morning he attended a meeting ofthe Light House Board of which he is still amember.

The Athletic Association held its annualelection of officers last Friday.

Richard L. Frost, '02, was elected presi-dent of the association. He is the presentcaptain of the track team and has been inclose touch with athletics ever since heentered the Institute. George T. Seabury,'02, 'was elected vice-president, and RobertA. Pope, '02, and G. D. Wilson, '03, treas-urer and secretary, respectively.

Championship Run.

The Fourth Annual Championship Run ofthe are and Hounds Club was held fromWellesley Hills over the eight-mile trail laida week before.

The honors of the day went to S. T. Wor-cester, 'o4, who, from the two-minute mark,made a strong run, passed the limit men andopened up a good lead before the finish.Peaslee, '03, from the three-minute markmade a good showing and far excelled hiswork of a year ago. Holcomb, 'o04, also didwell and with more experience should becomea good runner. Pearson, '02, ran well- andhad he been better acquainted with the trail,might have been a factor at the finish.

Worcester made the best time over thecourse, covering the distance in 54 minutes,I6 seconds. Considering the strong windand in some places, the poor. footing, this isan excellent showing. The following wasthe order at the finish:

For the Dress Rehearsal practically noseats have been applied for. Those failingto secure seats for the regular performanceare therefore advised to submit applicationsfor the Rehearsal.

A letter has been received by PresidentPritchett from Signor Marconi, the cele-brated electrical engineer, now stopping fora short time in this country, which bringsthe pleasant intelligence that Signor Marconihopes, later in the year, to visit the Instituteof Technology, and to deliver a lecture onthe present state of wireless telegraphy beforethe Society of Arts. Signor Marconi is nowin New York for a short'time only, and willreturn to Europe, but he expects to be againin this country later in the year, when it ishoped he will find time for the lecture at theInstitute.

At the last meeting of the Society of Arts,Professor M. I. Pupin showed in an enter-taining and comprehensive way the nature ofelectrical wave transmission . and the prin-ciples which led him to discover the increasein the distance of propagation by the inser-tion of induction coils at proper intervalsalong the line. He illustrated his lecture byexperiments on the analogous transmission ofwaves along a cord against friction, andshowed a number of slides of his experimen-tal apparatus,

Prof. Burton Heard From.

A message received by President Pritchettfrom the Technology Eclipse Expedition onits way to Sumatra gives pleasant- news ofthe progress of the party, and of the goodhealth of its members.: Professor Burton andhis assistants joined the Dutch SteamshipKoningin Regentes at Genoa on March 12,

aind found on this steamer an. official partyfrom the Netherlands, which will co-operatein the work of observing the Eclipse of May'7.

Professor Burton writes that all the instru-ments have been safely landed and placed onboard the steamer, and as this steamer goesdirectly to Padang there ought to be nodoubt of the safe arrival of the men and in-struments in Sumatra.

Buffalo Exposition Notes.

Buffalo will be able to accommodate all thevisitors of the Pan-American Exposition nextsummer. The city has a 'large number ofpermanent hotels'with accommodations for a,great number of guests,. besides hundreds ofboarding and lodging-houses. In addition, anumber of large apartment houses have beenconverted into- hotels, and several caravan-saries with accommodations for from onethousand to'five thousand persons have beenerected near the Exposition Grounds. Manyof these are of new fire-proof construction.Outside of all these provisions for the hous-ing of visitors,, there will be thrown openmore than three thousand private dwelling-houses with an average accommodation forsixteen persons each. It would seem that thearrangements in thisregard are better thanany before made by a city in which an Ex-position has been held.

In view of certain misleading stories whichhave beconie current, the Superintendent ofthie Bureau of General Information of thePan-American Exposition Company, Mr.W. D. Thayer, reports that Buffalo will beable to care for at least 150,000 persons,while the suburbs can care for at least 50,000more, and that the rates will be reasonable.The Superintendent says: " There is noshortage of accommodations, and the charges,I am sure, will be much lower than thosethat have accompanied any other Exposition."

Walker Memorial.

The Northwestern Association are going tosend out to each Aluminus an account ofwhat they did at their dinner last month witha rousing appeal for a subscription of a eventhirty dollars from each. The other societieswill be urged to do their utmost toward in-creasing the fund. The Memorial Committeehave issued a lot of the $30 subscriptionblanks.

When does Technique come out? Thisyear, Techniquze will appear at i2 M., Thurs-day, April 25ih, rain or shine.

ATHE LOUNGER has often considered 'making somevaluable additions to the Institute library but eachtime has been deterred by the extreme cost of thepublications he had in mind. For instance " Years Ihave spent at the Institute," by Corporal B--1-ywould certainly help out to the extent of a fewshelves. "Coats I have Worn and Why," by Rev.\V-rth--m-r would serve as a reference work forstudents of the antique and bizarre. "Stories I havetold- at Class Dinners," by R-b-ns-n might be sup-pressed by the examining committee, but at least itis a cheap work. 4' Occasions on which 1 have madeCharlie Cross," by the same author is now at press.These are but a -few of the many works by men andwomen at 'the Institute which *have until now beensadly neglected. THE LOUNGER would suggest that asubscription list be started at the Freshman dinnerfor 'the purpose of adding such deserving works to ourlibrary shelves.

As rTHE LOUNGER was contemplatively rolling hiswell-worn quill in his back hair preparatory to dese-crating the sanctity of a clean sheet of paper, thoughtscame surging through his pondering mind as to thewave of financial prosperity which seemed to haveoverwhelmed his fellow workers, and he lazily won-dered, as he gazed at the startlingly odoriferousfloor covering of the office- unheard of event - ifhis old partner, the Business Manager, had by anychance doubled his customary appropriation ofnegotiable funds. But THE LOUNGER'S musings wererudely interrupted by a violent concussion on the

.panels'of the door and he was greeted by the paralyz-ing information that there were six chairs and a tabledown below for the office. THE LOUNGER is shocked,he hardly knows whether with delight or disgust; tosee his old favorite kitchen chairs used variouslyeither as missiles of assault or seats, condemned tothe fiery gorges of the furnace; to see his ancientfriend the table, hearty still, although a cripple, castoff pitiously; that causes feelings of sorrow andindignation to arise within his bosom. It is only theprospect of a realization of his long deferred hopes,indeed, that gives THE LOUNGER any pleasure what-ever. This troublesome financial embarrassment

which seems to have demoralized his comrades makesTHE LOUNGER dream that before he departs this toil:some life, he may see a realization of the cut at thehead of this page. Th/at might even in'duce him toendure the varigated odors arising from the floor andto continue to give his proteges, the Freshmen, the,benefits of his weekly wisdom.

THE LOUNGER has ever considered the reputationof Tech as a slow-death inflicting institution, a bless-ing in disguise. Simply the magic sentence "I goto Tech," and social obligations and undesirable in-vitations excuse themselves for preying on his time.If THE LOUNGER chooses to accept an invitation, hismartyrdom in leaving his engrossing task at Tech isso apparent that he becomes a hero; for such selfsacrifice betokens respect, friendship-even more,mayhap, if that invitation chance to proceed fromone of the co-ed-ine gender. So THE LOUNGER haswatched with tender solicitude this convenient repu-tation. He feared the consequences of the mistakenliberality of the Faculty in bestowing a " ChristmasVacation; ' but his fears'were groundless, for theintegral of a sum equals the sum of the integrals ofits parts. The threatened students were not punishedwith a superfluity of vacation. Again THE LOUNGER'Snerves commenced to scrape when he read theannouncement that there were to be two half-holidayson the afternoons of Tech show. But again he foundhis alarm was without foundation. The Faculty roseto the sublimity of the occasion and in an unprece-dented act of true generosity permitted the studentsto omit one of the three days of " Spring Vacation,"(a holiday and Saturday). That the Faculty wasreally magnaminous in this instance THE LOUNGERwould endeavor to show to any who may doubt. Byan application of the method of least squares thefact appears that by this action the working school*year has been increased by about three-sixteenths ofa day. . This arises from the reason that one-half aday plus one-half: of another day does not equal awhole day. Course IX. logic might be employed toexplain this statement, but perhaps an illustrationwill serve as well.. Split lengthwise the tails of twocats. Place the respective surfaces of the longitud-inal cross sections of one 'half of each tail in closeand careful contact. The result is not a whole tail.

Often has it been whispered in THE LOUNGER'Sear that there has been a Faculty vote refusingadmission to the Institute to pretty girls. THELOUNGER.would seize this opportunity to boldly refutethis foul charge. He has no official authority so todo, but he will take all responsibility on the bigbroad shoulders of his raglan. Waiving choice ofweapons, THE LOUNGER hereby challenges anyonewho repeats that charge to mortal combat at highnoon on the Tech Campus.

Ir"M _rMC-"

TI T F-" = t MZ: )p

It sounds like a dime novel, but THE LOUNGER isassured that it is true, .masked men, mysterious cabs,handcuffs and all; that the story of the menus wastrue is an assured fact to every Sophomore at Tech.But to return to the beginning -from which 'rHELOUNGER has deviated in his unaccustomed excite-ment. Be it known that there is a Sophomore -Classwhich redounds credit to THE LOUNGER'S efforts atreform ! He pleaded for class spirit, interest inTech life, and such things and they have come - witha vengeance, the Freshies say, and who should knowif not they. For at their recent banquet (THELOUNGER hopes to be forgiven for retailing stale news)by what were they met; by the information that theirembryo editorial staff, the publishers of'the menu,had been scooped, if one might call such an affair a"scoop.'

They were forced to effect alterations by a liberalsupply of pen and ink and during the evening THEIOUNGER saw (for he will confess he was interestedenough to view the ceremony) several individualporters and waiters grow wealthy by absconding withall of those unfortunate bards they could lay handson and delivering them into Sophomore hands at somuch per card. By the time the evening was almostover, however, THE LOUNGER was able to observethat the delicate feelings engendered by thisfaiuxpasof the first part had worn off and under the mellow-ing effects of the grape, Freshmen were even heardexhorting friendly Sophomores to "have a (hic)drink on me."

But as to the other conspirators, the group on thecorner of Newbury and Arlington Streets, for them,after a suspense as agonizing as it was long, to behailed by the news, as they stood dangling a pair ofsuspicious looking "bracelets," and a gag, that therewas nothing doing; that disappointment formed acounter reaction to the overbalancing joy of theprinted menus-they possessed in their pockets. Forthe birds to have flown the coop just as they wereabout to be nabbed (THE LOUNGER begs pardon if he

speaks in too technical a parlance) was hard luck,but to have the elaborate accounts of the muddledmenus in the next morning's papers before their eyes.exercised a soothing effect,- which THE LOUNGER has-often noticed to be caused by the pleasant glow ofcheerful recollections.

The consciousness of having done a good deedand the knowledge that people can be close mouthedwhen occasion demands it, has given THE LOUNGERnew hopes for the reformation of Tech. When T'HE

LOUNGER'S special birdie brought him in Novemberthe inforipation of the incriminating acts prosecutedlast Saturday night, he remarked that every Freshmanwould know of it before March, but he sees thatnone of his Co-Eds were told and it was kept quiet.Wise Sophs - be good.
