Dorms Transformed· Into Suffolk Co. Jail

Exactly on timne, in accordancewith placards that had been placedaround the dormitories, an electricsign, heralded by loud reports, pro-claimed to the world that '93 Dor-mitory had been changed into theSuffoik County Jail. Notices hadbeen spread about, telling the in-habitants of the old dorms "to watch'93 at 11.30."

At half past eleven several autosdrove tip to the new dormitoriesand ten or a'dozen men piled out,carrying something heavy. Scarcelyhad they gotten in the door whena loud explosion took place, all lightsin tlhe corridors and stairways flick-ered and went out, and all eyeswere strained to see what was aboutto happen. In a few moments theonlookers were rewarded. A bigelectric sign bearing the words "Suf-folk County Jail" flamed out in thedarkness. After a short exhibition,the sign was spirited away, and, ac-cording to latest reports, had notbeen located.

nology, aerodynamic laws were followedthroughout. Like the foreign ship theprinciple of operation makes use of theso-called Magnus effect, which involvesthe force obtained by wind pressure onrevolving cylinders.

In contrast to the Flettner ship, butone tower will be used on the ship tobe tested on the Basin, and will havea height of 91-2 feet and and a dianm-eter of 31-2 feet. The rotor will bemounted in a standard Navy 30 footboat, and will be driven by anl electricmotor, the current being supplied by agas engine driven generator. Ball bear-ings are provided as a mounting at thebase of the tower, lateral support be-ing supplied by a column within therotating cylinder.

In the Flettner ship, which has a dis-placement of 600 tons, two towers wereused, each with a diameter of ten feetand a height of 52 feet.

The rotor on the craft designed atTechnology will revolve at a greaterspeed than those on the foreign boat,and considering the smaller size, thesame effect is expected. Contrary to theimpression held in many quarters therotors are in no way connected to thepropellors of the ship, the power forpropulsion being obtained entirely bypressure of air currents on the revolv-ing mast.

To date 930 Alumni with 402 guestshave registered for the All-Technolo-gy Reunion next week, and registra-tions are increasing with every mail.Over one-half of the reservations forthe Jambouree Dinner at MechanicsHall on Thursday evening have beentaken, similar response having been re-turned for the Harbor Trip, the Tea atthe President's House, and "TechNight at Pops."

Vaudeville performers will entertainat the Jambouree Dinner, and from 7to 7.30 the program will be broadcastfrom WEAF, WEEI, WGR, WFI,WEAR, WOC, WCCO, WWJ, andWSAI, with O. B. Denison '11, secre-tary-treasurer of the Alumni Associa-tion as announcer. In addition to thisprogram, a number of prizes and sou-venirs will be-distributed.

Charter Steamer From N. Y.Plans for the Harbor Trip and the

demonstration of the mysterious "Zizz"have been changed. Instead of leav-ing from Rowes Wharf as originallyannounced, the start will be made fromthe Army Base at the CommonwealthPier. Plenty of parking space for au-tomobiles under guard of military po-lice will be provided.

Members of the Technology Clubsfrom New York and points'south havechartered a Metropolitan Line steam-er from New' York to bring them toBoston on Wednesday night.

Will Mark First Trial of ThisType Ship in America

It Is Believed

Providing weather conditions are atall favorable, the rotor ship construct-ed by two naval officers, members ofCourse XIII, will have its first trial onthe Charles River Basin the early partof next week. This will be what is be-lieved the first test of a rotor ship inAmerica on a practical scale, althoughmodels have been tested by severalphysicists and experimenters in variousparts of the country.

The designers of the rotor tower areLieutenants W. W. Hastings Sp. andJ. E. Kiernan '25 of the United StatesNavy, both of whom are students inthe Department of Naval Architecture.They believe that by rotating the towerat 360 revolutions per minute in a 15mile wind a speed of seven knots anhour will be attained.

Exhaustive experiments were conduct-ed in the wind tunnel at Langley Field,Va., and the data gathered there wereused in the design of the tower, whichdiffers slightly from the form used byAnton Flettner of Germany. In the con-struction of the rotor designed at Tech-

AWARD ATHLETIC INSIGNIA

Varsity Crew Wins Straight '"Ts"-Eleven Other Straight

"Tgs" Awarded

The Advisory Council on Athleticsplaced-its stamp of disapproval on theestablishment of a varsity baseball teamat Technology when it voted to abolishthe Beaver baseball team at its regularmeeting held at the Engineers' Club, Bos-ton, last night.

Action on the part of the Councilcomes as a direct result of the inabilityof the team managers to -keep the sporton a strictly amateur basis. "Luke"Bannon, coachof the tealn, admitted lastnight that at least one man would bebarred on account of professional ratingand at least five or six others due to vio-lation of the graduate and transfer rule.

In authorizing the attempt at organiz-ing the baseball team at Technology thisspring, the Advisory Council was franklyskeptical as to whether or not the sportcould be conducted in accordance with theeligibility rules of the M.I.T.A.A.

Dr. J. A. Rockwell '96, chairman ofthe Council, pointed out that the expe-rience with the Beaver team this seas-on has shown that baseball cannot beconducted in a satisfactory manner hereand therefore recommended abolition ofthe team.

Straight "T" was awarded to the mem-bers of the varsity crew, while the lightvarsity oarsmen received the "T" withcrossed oars. Eleven other "T" awards,made at the meeting, include those toSaul Brodsky '26, G. A. Drew '25, G.J. Leness '26, L. M. Sanford '26, ;H. G.Steinbrenner '27; J; E. -Russell '25, 1F.Broadhurst '25, E. C. Hinck '27, J. K.Peck '25, A H. Stanton '25 and J. F.McIndoe '25.

Men receiving the "aTa" award areHarrison Browning '25, R. O. Ballan-tine '25, L. B. Copley '26, M. W. Da-vidson '26, F. E. Glantzberg '27, A. P.Kauzman '27, K. A. Smith '27, L. B.Bragg '25, M. W. Fort '26, R. W. Ro-gers '26, D. C. Hooper '26, and A. F.Butler '26.

The "tTt" award was given to F.Broadhurst '25, E. C. Hinck '27, J. K.Peck '25, J. E. Russell '25, W. E. Peter-son '26 and E. W. Eddy '26. F. G. Cun-ningham '25 was awarded an "rTt."The "gTt" was awarded to the follow-ing members of the 1925 Varsity golfteam: G. P. Edmonds '26, G. W. El-kins '25, R. W. Head '26 and A. L.Johnson '25.

Major General A. W. Brewster, Com-manding General of the First CorpsArea, is to conduct the Freshman Review,which will take place this afternoon at4 o'clock on the parade grounds betweenWalker Memorial and Building 2.

The Ceremonies are to be entirely inthe hands of the Cadet Officers. TheBattalion will be commanded during theReview by Cadet Major J. B. Oakley,'26, with Cadet First Lieutenant B. T.Humphreyille '26 as Adjutant. The fourcompanies are each to be under thecharge of cadet officers, who will beassisted by their platoon leaders.

The companies are to march onto thefield for Battalion formation in columnof squads, and will form in a line ofclose columns opposite a line parallel tothe third base line of the main ballfield. General Brewster, with his Staff,will occupy a position in front of theBattalion. The Military Science Depart-ment is !opihg for fine weather for theReview- ...-.

Hold Competitive DrillThe Review is to be preceded by the

competitive drill, which will take placeat 3 o'clock. Fifteen men from eachcompany, sixty men in all, have beenselected to compete in this contest. Thedrill is to be on the "School of theSoldier," and the contestants will grad-ually be eliminated to three men, whomthe judges consider the three best drilledmen in the Battalion.

General Brewster will then presentthese men with the medals for "profic-iency in drill," one of which is of gold,one- of silver, and the other of bronze.The officers who are going to act asjudges in this competitive drill are:Colonel Browning of Harvard, ColonelGreig from the Army Base and MajorDrollinger of Boston University. TheFreshman Rifle Team is also to receivemedals at that time. Ten members areto be decorated.

The Review, following the competitivedrill at 4 o'clock, will last until about6 o'clock, when it will be concluded bythe Retreat Parade at official "Sunset."Any freshmen regularly enrolled as astudent in MS-13, who is absent fromthe final review without an excuse fromthe Medical Department will not passthe Course. A Coast Artillery Bandfrom Fort Banks is going to be presentat the Review to furnish the music.

MUST STOP RIOTIN THE'93 DORMS

Dorm Committee to Investigate* And Act on Recent

Carousing

Due to the fact that the dormitorycommittee wnas unable to present anydefinite evidence against the men in-volved in the recent dormitory es-capades, it was announced yesterdaythat no definite action had vet beentaken, due to lack of knowledge con-cerning the identity of the ring-leaders.

Excitement started early Sundaymorning, when a group of men fromthe old dormitory unit inopportunelyaroused the '93 men front their slum-bers with the gentle strains of "SweetAdeline" and "Rosie O'Grady." Stu-dents in the new dorms retaliated withstreams of four well-directed! fire hoses,whereupon the serenaders,/deemed itmore advisable to move to' drier quar-ters.

Niot content with having sprinkledthe visitors, the residents of the '93dormitories began to play the fire hosesup and down the corridors of the build-ing, with the result that many of theroomnis were flooded with several inchesof water. The first and second floorssuffered most fromin the drenching.

Although no definite action has as yetbeen taken, members of the dormitorycommittee and of the dormitory board areof the opinion that the revels must cometo an end. Several students have re-ported that their study has been need-lessl- interrupted. Ejection of the in.-stigators of the tricks, is the most effi-cient means of eliminating the trouble,the committee believes.

,THE INDECOROUS DORMITORIES

' rHE Dormitory Committee is endeavoring to prevent disorderlyconduct in the dormitories. It is hoped that they succeed even

if it be necessary for them to eject several men. Men that are in-sensible to property value, that have no control of their tendenciesfor child-play have no place in common living quarters.

The latest trouble occurred in '93 and consisted in the floodingof several rooms with fire hose. True, the watery action was pre-cipitated by untimely and disharmonious vocal effusions from theold dormitories, but the cause was not sufficient to excuse the end.We were somewhat in sympathy with a recent display or rather,barrage, of institutional spirit though it was ill-advised, but there isno reason, hlvatsoevex, for destructive outbreaks such as occurredSunday morning. The Committee should eradicate the trouble byidentifying the perpetrators.

In reviewing the arguments for and against the proctoring systemand the Faculty's earnest effort to improve conditions, there isonly one stand to take, that of sincere support. THE TECH be-lieves that with the student body co-operating with the Faculty inthe coming exaninations, dishonesty can and will be eliminated.

THE TECH takes pleasure in announcing the following elec-tions to its staff: Andrew Anderson, Jr. '27 and C. A. Bartlett '27,Newvs Department: J. F. Healy '27, Sports Department, S. H. Gross'26, Advertising Department; and D. R. Donovan '28, Circulation

" THE OPEN FORUM |To the Editor of THE TECH:

In an editorial in the Friday, Mlay29, issue of THE TECH you said that'the country must be served and one

way of serving the country is to 'en-able the employer to maintain his rightsagainst a lot of IGNORANT and AV-ARICIOOUS laborers'." (I believe thiscountry is proud of its system of populareducation.) Perhaps that is the way toserve the countryl

An Associated Press message fromShanghai, dated May 30, shows anotherway of serving the country. "Six stu-dents were killed and eight of 16 otherswounded will probably die, as the re-sult of a strike riot here late today .... "The demonstration was intended as aprotest against conviction in the mixedcourt of 17 Chinese workers in a Jap-anese cotton mill here for participationin strike disorders. Tonight all avail-able foreign defense units supplementingthe regular police were stationed at thestrategic centers of the foreign settle-ments .... " These Chinese studentsleave tried to serve those that need ser-vice--the poor, the ignorant, the avaric-ious if you will. Whom are you tryingto serve? What is the country that youare so anxious to serve? Is not morethan half of the population of this coun-try made up of wage earners-the ig-noraot, the avaricious?

The utter selfishness of a student whowould become a strike-breaker in orderto make a few dollars during his vaca-tion is beyond anything to which I couldpoint out. And the honor of being labell-ed "a scab" and of spending a few weekswith the scum of society, the never-do-well, and the professional strike-breakeris not of a kind which an intelligentmanl would like to have.

It seems that our ideals of democracyand of the entire Western civilizationis bankrupt if we have to use Sikh policeagainst a demonstration of unarmed stu-dents-". . . a squad of Sikh police wasordered to fire on them. Twenty twoshots were fired, every one taking effect."And this after hundreds of missionariesare being sent there every year to preachworld brotherhood. Do you expect thesestudents to believe the teaching of thesemissionaries of good will after they hearanother Christian ordering to shoot?

As a representative of Cosmopolitanstudents at the Institute I protest againstthe action of the foreign defense inChina.

variety of answers were given. Amongthenm were; "Only when necessary asa social act," "Only twice a year," "Al-ways," "Like a fish," and "Absolutelynever." The questionnaire also revealsthat the occupations which were infashion in the days when the Seniors'fathers were graduating are now con-sidered somewhat overcrowded or elsenot a good paying proposition for theywere not chosen this year. In theolden days, business seemed to appearthe most promising for most of the menseemed to have intentions of enteringthat' field. This year, on the otherhand, the votes seemed to be nearlyequally distributed.

A bit of the history of the Rochesterorganization which is endeavoring, ac-cording to a recent communicant, tobuild up sentiment against studentstrike breakers recently came into ourpossession. Originally it was a veryeffective group organized by the Y. M.C. A. to bring students who were work-ing in Rochester industrial plants incontact with the factory admninistra-tors. Every two weeks these studentswould meet some pronminent adminis-trator and discuss the problems whichhad presented themselves during thepreceding two weeks. These problemschiefly related to working conditionsand industrial relations in general.

The affair functioned splendidly thefirst summer but during. the next avery unfortunate rupture occurredwhich was precipitated by the unwise,indiscreet, and thoroughly intolerableaction of some of the new studentmembers who were admitted. Theywould come to the lecture meetingsand heckle the visiting business manwith questions of the IL W. WV. cate-gory, and harass himi with argumentsand extraneous mater purporting toradicalism of the most unreasonableand rabid sort. The co-operating busi-ness ilnen became disgusted, the Y. M.C. A. that fostered it turned aboutface, renouncing and disbanding it, andanother valuable plan went into limbopropelled by instigators who were con-cerned with only their own destructivepolicies.

This brief history is given for itsvalue in casting light oln the editorialthat appeared last issue on the studentstrike breaking issue, and for its closerelation to the Open Forum communi-cation in' this issue. The circular con-demning students working in the placeof strikers was issued by?- the Rochestergroup after the radicals obtained con-trol of it.

the name backwards, turning the lettersupside down and looking at them throughthe back of the paper. The result wassomething like the Sanscrit for radio,so we gave this up and called it thegimmick. To turn the widget inside outIb- the mathematical method, the widgetis differentiated along three axes to apoint; then after turning the axes aroundend for end, it is reintegrated. Thismethod is not very practicable. In thefirst place special integral tables wouldlhave to be provided and the men trainedill their use, and in the second place aslight misplacing of the axes of integ-ration will produce an unstable gimmickwhich would be likely to break in useor even explode. Therefore, this meth-od had to be abandonned.

"Two other methods remained! Firsteither to turn the machinery inside outor run it backwards, thus producing areversed widget or gimmick; or second,to force it through the fourth dimen-sion. For this method, which consistsof hurling the widget through the fourthdimension procure a hypospace, common-ly knownl as a cuboid. Pass the widgetthrough it, and onl the adjacent side itwill come out inside out. This methodgives a very stable product, and obvious-lyr since the gimmick is a reverse of thewidget it would be inl demand duringthe slack season for widgets. So wehave a product for sale in slack time.It will nlot require any new machineryexcept an inexpensive hypospace, whichcan be procured by our mathematical re-search men. In fact, we already havean experimental hypospace at the labora-tories which we have used to turn wid-gets inside out. Our mathematicians as-sure us that they can easily provide uswith a series of these on a larger scale.Any bohunk can throw them through.

"Small difficulties may arise from useoi the hypospace. Suppose the hypo-space were to leak out and imagine theplight of the worker throwing the widl-gets. He might be half turned insideout, and what would we do. We couldnIot pass him through the hypospace, forthe half not reversed would become re-versed in the process. In order to avoidsuch occurrences we developed, aftersome experimentation, the material widge-tite, which is a compound of some onehundred building materials, and is hypo-space proof.

George Leness and Major Sanfordcontinued their brilliant work of the en-tire season and flashed through withpoints that placed Tech above every otherNew England college with the exceptionof Yale and Harvard.

Easily noted on the intercollegiatesummary that the U. of Southern Cali-fornia and Princeton won team honors

on Franklin Field last Saturday butcould hardly be called the TRACK andfield champions of the country. Prince-ton, though runner-up, failed to win asingle point in the running events, scor-ing in the hurdles and weight events,while the California team copped onethird place in tile century, cleaning uphandily in the hurdles and field events.

There are rumors about that track isin for the biggest boost in its history.All factions will co-operate to produce astrong aggregation. With such a power-ful nucleus as formed by Leness in thehalf and quarter, Sanford in the pole-vault, Kauzman and Miller in the sprints,Steinbrenner in the hurdles, Brodsky andGlantzberg in the field events, and Cap-tain Rooney of the cross-country teamsupported by that galaxy of frosh dis-tance stars made up of Chute, Kirwin,Meagher, Bennett, and others, all roadspoint toward a banner year for the fol-lowers of the cinder path.

Incidentally, Jack Weibe is attendingsummer school for the next few monthsand the coaches are firm in the beliefthat he will be all set to represent theInstitute in competition next year.

Jim Alexander, new caretaker of thetrack and grounds thereabout is to becongratulated on the splendid conditionof the cinder path during the past season.The records that fell in the New Eng-lands were ample testimonial of the carethat was given the track during the pastseason.

In winning second honors in the halfmnije at the Big Intercollegiates, GeorgeLeness left no doubt as to his superior-ity over Harvard's Soapy Watters. Itwas sweet revenge for the defeat hesuffered at the hands of the same Soapyin the Tech-Harvard dual meet earlier inthe spring.

By all the laws of arithmetical prog-ression, Major Sanford should be vault-ing 13 feet or better next season. Hefinished last spring with a record leap of12 feet and has been climbing consistent-ly since.

There is a possibility that Marvin Rickmay run for the Cardinal and Grey nextyear. Rick, chosen All-American steeple-chase champion, and also a member ofthe last Olympic team, has been prac-ticing quite regularly on the Tech track.His scholastic work has also reached apoint where he could carry the burdenof track. Such an addition in the long-er runs would put the Institute track-sters right up at the top.

- ISaid to Have Beer. Important inAppointment as Coach

At Columbia

The radiating personality for whichCoach Bill Haines is famous is saidto have been an important item in win-ning for him the position of head coachof Columbia University crews until thefinish of the Poughkeepsie regatta thismonth. Agility with the piano keys andhis spirited songs are believed to hav ebeen as important as his ability to turnout winning eights.

The Boston Herald, in yesterday's edi-tion, quotes a member of the Columbiarowing committee as saying "WhenHaines was in New York for his racewith us, one of the committee came up-on him in quarters after a practicesession and sat through an hour's de-lightful entertainment, a feast of play-ing and singing, and saw how his oars-men reacted to it after a long row.We figured subsequently that this wasthe sort of man needed to chase awaythe glooms in Columbia row;,:, andfact that he Is master of his game, al-though that primarily wasn't first con-sideration with us, helped considerably.So we sought and secured Bill Haines."

Coach Haines will return to Technol-ogy in the fall of this year, his posi-tion "with Columbia being only of atemporary nature. Bringing the Blue andWhite crews into srink of condition forthe big regatta will prove a colossaltask, but Coach Haines feels confidentthat he can prove equal to it.

and the complete control of every stage ofproduction, the unvarying du Pont qualityis assured. It is the maintenance of the

uniform quality that has given the du PontCompany the reputation it enjoys today in

the explosive field.

Certainty in blasting results is obtainedby the selection of the right type of ex-plosive and its proper use.

Don't fail to send for your free copy ofthe "Blasters' Handbook,'"-a authorita-

tive work describing the practical methodsof using explosives in every field. Youl willfind this book invaluable both in collegeworks and your reference library.

C. C. Giger '17, Instructor inMechanical Engineering

To Race Also

Technology is to have two representa-tives in Class B of the model yacht racesto be held on the Charles River basinJuly 9, 10, and 11. Announcement hasbeen made that four Seniors in the NavalArchitecture department who have beenbuilding model yachts for thesis datawould enter one of their models in thisrace. C. C. Gager '17, an instructor inthe Mechanical Engineering department,has also signified his intention of enter-ing the event.

Rivalry between the two Institute com-petitors is tense. The Seniors admit thatthey are out to beat the Mechanical En-gineering instructor who has severalsuch races to his credit, and feel con-fident that they will win. Gager, onthe other hand, pleasantly but firmlycontends that the Seniors haven't achance, "I declare myself champion yachtracer of Technology and challenge theSeniors to take this title away from me."

The four Seniors working on the thesisare Charles Moody, who designed theyacht, R. F. Johnston, G. R. Holt, andWarner Lumbard. Together they havebuilt two models, one five-sixths thesize of the other. The purpose of thetwo models is to determine the relationbetween weight, size, and sail area. Themodels were constructed under the sup-ervision of George O'Hara, mastercraftsman, who has charge of the modelshop in building 5. C. G. Selig of theexperimental physics machine shop con-structed the steering gear and Cousens& Pratt, sailmakers, contributed the sails

which are of the finest Egyptian cot-ton.

This is the first time that model yachtshasve been built and tested at the In-stitute. In previous years men haLve builty achts but they were usually sent toWashington where they were tested bythe Navy department. This year, how-ever, the men have been sailing themodels themselves in the Charles Riverbasin and will report the results.

C. C. GagerR, Technology's other rep-resentative in Class B. is a member ofthe Boston Yacht Club. This is thethird year that he has entered a yachtin the model races, his model taking firstplace in its class last year. The modelwhich he will race this year is now atthe Medford Boat Club on Mystic Lakesand is considered one of the finest whichwill compete from the local club in itsclass.

There will be four classes of entriesin the contest: the international trials,Class B. and two classes for owners ofmodel yachts which do not comply withthe association rules. Valuable trophiesare being offered by interested parties forthe winners of the different classes. Thewinner of the international class trialswill be sent to England to meet theBritish champion this fall. A largenumber of entrants from various clubsill the United States are expected.

SOAP ROMNCE AT THECOPLEY WELL RECEIVED

After seeing "It Pays to Advertise"which opened Monday night at theCopley Theatre we wondered just whomit pays. This rather hilarious comedy,which was exceptionally weell receivedby the audience seemed to advertisethe dirty work (pardon the pun) whichis carried on behind the staid exteriorsof the big soap companies.

Cyrus Martin (Francis Compton) thehead of the Soap Trust together withthe aid of his dazzling secretary, MaryGrayson, (excellently played by Kath-erine Standing) forces his son Rodney(Barry Jones), a Harvard graduate, togo to work. Rodney, angry with hisfather decides to form a rival soapcompany. Mary Grayson, the secretaryis engaged to Rodney and secretly helpshim when the father and the firm'screditors try to break the strugglingyoung man.

But there is always a special Provi-dence which looks after virtuous andhandsome young men (onl the stage atleast) and unexpected developments oc-cur which make the father very anxiousto buy the company. Here again Marytakes a hand in the affair and withasmirk much like that of the proverbialcat-in-the-cream- quietly disproves thatold adage which says soimething aboutthe woman always paying. A. P. M

As A. NORTHROP GIVELSTALK TO SOPHOMORES

A. A. Northrop, head of the Publicity-Department of Stone & Webster, gav ethe regular P.E.E. talk to the Sopho-mores in Course VI last Friday morn-inlg. His talk wvas on the practical ap-plication of an engineer's profession asregards his working in a large firm.

The advantages of working in a largefirm according to Mr. Northrop, is thata man has a chance to f ollow whateverline of wo0rk he desires. He can go inthe business, financial, management, en-gineering, or research departments, andill this way he need not be af raid of be-ing forced to work at something 'he doesnot like.
