At a meeting of the Tech CatholicClub last evening in room. 10-267,plans were developed for a dance,similar in form to the "Fall Acquain-tance Dance" held last fall, to beknown as the "Spring Fever Dance."This dance will be held in WalkerMemorial an Friday. April 23, and isplanned to be stag. It is expectedthat support will be given the affairby the various girls' colleges in theneighborhood of Boston.

The feature of the evening will bethe new "Seesothemofeverometer," acomplicated apparatus which, accord-ing to its inventors, "will legitimatelyand accurately classify the guestsattending the dance into four classesaccording to their respective heatvalues." Each of these classes willbe identified by a particular coloredcard, and during the evening, variouscombinations of colors will be pairedoff.

Being one of the five originalcourses of the Institute, the depart-ment of mining and metallurgy wasturning out graduates when a south-erner's face would still turn red at themention of the word "Yank". Thelaboratories of the department werethe first of their kind in this countryand served as models for other schoolsto copy. The first lectures in metal-lurgy, were given by ProfessorCharles W.7V Eliot who later becameone of Harvard's most famous presi-dents. Professor Robert H. Richards,'68, a member of the Institute's firstclass and its oldest living alumnus,began teaching at Technology the

Recognizing the steadily expandingscientific knowledge and the prospectof important industrial developmentsin the fields of mining and metallurgy,the Institute is dividing the presentCourse III into two courses, the De-partment of Mining which will remainaS Course III and the Department ofMetallurgy which will be designatedas Course XIX.

The Department of Metallurgy,headed by Dr. Robert S. Williams,Professor of Physical Metallurgy, willhave on its staff Professor George B.Waterhouse; associate professorsCarle R. Hayward, Victor O. Homer-berg, John T. Norton, and FrarcisBitter; and assistant professors IgorN. Zaverine and Morris Cohen. Thenei* department will be essentially acombination of options 3 and 4 of theold Course III with the inclusion ofserveral new courses of study.

At a meeting of the American In-stitute of Electrical Engineers heildlast night in Eastman lecture hall,Professor Emeritus Dugald C. Jack-son, former head of the departmentof Electrical Engineerinrg, spoke on"Engineering Societies Throughoutthe World." Professor Jackson de-scribed the fcrrrLs of the en~gineerinlgsocieties in many of the twenty-two countries of the world throughwhich he had traveled as a consultingengineer, and related many personalexperiences he had had in the fareast.

nounced last fall: Although Dr. Cornrpton

stated at the time that it seemed desirable not

to make an intensive campaign for funds, it

might be a good idea to try to secure enough

for at least the building portion of the pro- .gram in a short time so that all the new con-

struction could be done over substantially the

same period of time. But even without that,

the moving of the Architecture Department

across the river to Join the rest of the Insti-

tute in Cambridge is an important step for-

ward in the progress of the Institute.

SUPREME COURTWATCHES POLITICAL SKIES

RESIDENT Roosevelt may in the end dono more as far as the Supreme Court is

concerned, but he has certainly shown that

thle Court does not judge its cases from an

abstract standard, without regard to the tides

that may be sweeping the political seas. There

may be some who.will argue that the Court's

recent reversal in defining the meaning of "in-

terstate" was not influenced by the commo-tion that has been raised about the "ingrainedconservatism" of most of the justices to use

one of the milder terms, but it is difficult to

see any basis for this 'stand, especially when

one considers that in this case the change was

caused by the reversal of only one justice,

who, being more nearly "on the fence" than

most of the others, would naturally be more

easily influenced to change his position.

The Court's latest decisions prove again

that the Constitution, far from being nearly

fixed, is on the whole just what the Supreme

Court-says it is. Or in the case of a divided

court, it is what one or two justices say it is.

If they should decide that it is expedient to

do so, they can, and do, change the meaning

of the Constitution. Perhaps this was the

main reason for President Rooseizelt's enrlarge-

ment proposal. -If so, he has shown again his

political ability. And lie has taken some of

the force out of his opponents' cries, "Keep

the Supreme Court out of politics." For the

Supreme Court never was completely non-political. Petty politics may not effect the

justices, but something big certainly does.

METROPOLITAN--'For the comingweek, the feature include Joel McCreaand Barbara Stanwyck in InternesCan't Take Money and, on the stage,Melody Parade with Roger Pryor andhis band.

ANY FRATERNITY CAN BEjustly envious of the Francis

Walker Ball last Friday. That dance should show non-fraternity men that the success of a dance is not measured by the profit, but by the people who iattend. Too many times people have tried to transplant the Raymour in iWalker. It's good for the treasury,but what else ?

haps a little queer, at least for Technology, the

home of Science and Engineering. Their loca-

tion has made it practically impossible to over-

come this idea, for after the sophomore year,

architectural students have very little reason

even to come over on this side of the river.

The number of them in activities is small, es-

pecially if we look at activities other than

those whichn are located in the Rogers buildinlg.But the architects are no different from other

students, merely because the courses they take

are different. It is time we stopped thinking

of the department of Architecture as prac-

tically a separate school. The amount of co-

operation and understanding between other

departments has been increased greatly dur-

ing the past few years; now at last the archi-

tects are being removed from their isolation.

And so another step toward a "Greater

Technology" has been taken. Of course, this

step will be incomplete until others are made.

The move will intensify the need for addition-

al dormitories. Other facilities will probably

be taxed as well. Certainly no rearrangement

of space in the older Institute buildings will

be complete or final without considering build-

j-, plans under the expansion program an-

.~·~

It happened in Salem, Mass., on Fehrunrary 12, 1877. Theyoung reporter attended a demonstration of inventor Bell'snew telephone - then "talked" his story to his paper inBoston by telephone!

Though he didn't realize it, he was inaugurating a snewera in journalism. For today's newspapers could hardly existwithout the telephone.

Gathering and spreading news with lightning speed is justone of the telephone's countless contributions to modernlife. And 300,000 Bell System people strive constantly tomake the service still better, still more useful.

Why not telephone home oftener?Rates to most points are lowest after7 P M. and all day Sunday.

THE TE CHE

Reviews and Previews

UNIFIED TECHNOLOGYANOTHER STEP FORWARD

F one looks at a drawing of the architect's

conception of the "Technology of the Fu-ture," it may look very fanciful and improb-able of realization within any reasonable .time.But each time a step is taken toward this aim,each time a new building is constructed, ourfaith in the prospect of its not-too-distant re-alization becomes stronger.

So it was when the sale of the Institute'sBoston property and the construction of a newschool of Architecture in Cambridge were an-

... -nounced. The new building will fill the gapon the Miassachusetts Avenue side of the In-stitute. No longer will the unadorned brickwalls of the inner buildings greet persons en-tering from that side.

More important, from the point of view ofactual work by the staff and students, is thefact that the new building will permit an ex-pansion of other departments, since not all ofit will be required for architecture. Togetherwith as much oT the twelve-million-dollar ex-pansion plan that is complete by the end ofnext year, this additional space will relievethe cramping that has limited several depart-ments severely.

Another advantage, and from some pointsof view the most important, is that the'Insti-tute will be really unified again. For years thearchitects have been considered a race apart.Most of the rest of the Institute has thought

of them as being somehow different, or per-

I Hour QuaizzesEditor's note: If every student knew that the quiz

is over at the ringing, of thle bell, the fifty-minzutehour would be perfectly fair. But all students do rnotknowt, particzlarly because some quizzes actually doend five minutes after the bell, and students have n,oway of distinguishing these quizzes from the fifty-minute ones. Furthermor-e, in some quizzes studentsIn the distant end of the -room have three to five min-utes more than irn the end where proctors begin col-lecting. These conditions are not true of somze e:c-aminations, bCt they are true of many others. Thecase of the sophomore sitting in the second tow dur-ing a.n 8.04 quiz whosz paper was snatched from himso suddenly when the bell rang that he had to ruenofter the proctor to gizve Jzim the fi.rsft. -heetf s an e.-ample of the practices to whick we objected. In thatparticular quiz the reason for the great haste wasprobably an insufficient number of proctors.

Editor, The Tech: Concerning your editorial on"Hour Quizzes," I do not feel that the situation hasbeen fairly considered. Here is a bit of the otherside.

Granted that it is annoying to have a proctorsnatch a quiz paper from under your pencil, I do notthink you will find this so prevalent except in casesof necessity. Every student knows that the quiz isover at the ringing of the bell, and yet many start towork feverishly at this time to finish up. There aresome who will not surrender their papers even whenrequested to do so-what is to be done? Shall a few|nen be given the benefit of the extra time deniedothers? Another factor entering into the situationis that once the bell has rung, the restraint has beenremoved and only too often additional information -hitherto lacking - is obtained. in this period.

As far as the fifty-minute hour is concerned, eachstudent is given the same time to work-if the latepapers are snatched and if everyone gets to the roomon time. Since marks are on a relative and not anabsolute scale, why worry? In addition the ex-amination is made out with the fact in mind that thetime will be but fifty minutes. Do you. worry abouthaving a full sixty-minute hour for regular classes?

Trackmen Tune for Rivalryhn Handicap Meet Tomorrow

The entire team won its letters. Atpresent there is a three way dead-lock as to who should receive theVarsity Club award.

The basketeers are headed for avery successful season next year.Only one man, Robert Gay, will belost through graduation. The squad,while they did quite well this year,ought to profit by the added expe-rience and the fresh support from theyearlings.

The second of the spring hand-icap track meets will be held at2:30 tomorrow afternoon on Techfield, Weather permitting, it willemploy the cinder track on whichthe track squads have been prac-tising for the past week. It is nlotexpected that attendance will beas large as at the first meet,since Saturday is the first day ofthe spring vacation.

The squad consists of four golfers,who are led by the newly elected Cap-tain Paul Sullivan, '38. The otherthree berths are occupied by LloydEwing, '38, the team's manager,Robert Sessler '38 and Norman Stew-art '38. Four two ball matches andtwo four ball matches make up themeet. Each match counts one pointand thus four points will take themeet.

Wrihen the panic of 1873 nearlyclosed the doors of the Institute, Pres-ident Runkle broke down under thestrain and President Rogers returnedin 1878. He resigned again in 1881with the Institute once more in a firmposition, and while speaking at thegraduating exercises in HuntingtonHall, May 30, he died.

Criticizing the forensic efforts ofthe orators, Professor Rogers de-plored the fact that the M. I. T. ora-tors had vainly tried to "trip gaily"through their arguments, leaving the"ladies" to bring more solemn ideasto bear on the subject.

The Radcliffe debaters, Edith H.Goldsmith of Boston and MargaretO. Morin of Quincy, demanded' thathumorous debates be "outlawed" butthe final decision was a draw withtheir .Technology opponents, RobertS. Clemnents and L. Hurley Bloom.

School of Architecture has occupiedthe Rogers Building, named for Tech-nology's founder and first President,since 1916, when all other depart-ments were moved to the Cambridgesite. It was originally planned tohave the Architectural School becomea part of the present group.

The property recently sold occupiestwo-thirds of the entire block boundedby Boylston, Clarendon, Newbury, andBerkeley 'Streets. It comprises 87,-680 square feet of land, with a front-age of 365 feet on Boylston Street,2A0 feet on Clarendon Street and 365feet on Newbury Street. The RogersBuilding, which stands on the site,-was erected in 1865, and was followedby the Walker Building, which standsbetween it and Clarendon Street.

The sale by which this propertywas acquired by the New EnglandMutual Life Insurance Company wasconcluded by C. W. Whittier &Brother. The land will be used forthe erection of a home office building.It is assessed at $2,000,000 and therecent transaction is one of the larg-est and most important sales consum-mated in Boston.
