LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

It is indeed a sad sight to see fellow members of

the class of '42 pass each other with not the slightest

sign of recognition. Who knows but that in later

years these same tyros may proudly say that they

belong to the famous class of '42. it should be made

a compulsory amendment to Freshman Regulations

that members of the Freshman class, upon recognizing

a fellow Freshman, by his neckwear, or otherwise,

must greet him verbally wherever said meeting

should occur. This practice must and would create a

much greater, class spirit and fraternalism.

Then there are the first-year men who are ashamed

of their ties or, going further,, of their, own class.

These fellows are the ones who hide, their ties under

crew-neck and turtle-nieck sweaters, or ev~en risk a

ducking its the Charles by not wearing tile Freshman

tie at all. These ties should be a pride to the owner,

for they signify that he has been accepted as a mana

superior among men into the Massachusetts Institute

of Technolog.y. But still they won't wear the ties.

Others have not the slighte-st qualm ab)out making

disparaging -remarks in public about other Freshmen,

not personal remarks but rather as related to being a

member of the class of '42. In college life it is cus-

tomnary to deify one's class and, inasmuch as the

M.assachusetts Institute of Technology lacks some of

the tinie-worn cultural advantages that other great

colleges possess. this deification o£, THE CLASS

should be carried to a high degree here.

Already, Course IX, working with theEnglish Department has designed such acourse of study and has graduated twostudents with two others at present workingfor this degree. The misunderstanding thatwas in our minds may be misleading others.It revolves around the name of Course IX.Although the degrees read General Scienceor General Engineering, they might as wellbe Special Science or Special Engineering asthe students are men who have had definiteideas of a specialized training that is not givenin any of the eighteen specific courses.

It was unfortunate that our editorial ap-peared to point out a deficiency in courses atthe Institute which in fact was not present,but we hope that some of our readers havegained with us a better understanding of thepossible courses of study.

RULES

FOR PARi NGiN

A number of issues ago we offered a sug-gestion that we hoped would help to solvethe parking situation and keep students andprofessors from having to look for spaces andleave their cars against the fence by VassarStreet. We suggested that more parkingspaces be made available across MassachusettsAvenue where there are at present athleticfields.

The Institute, however, has worked out asolution to the problem that is much less ex-pensive and does not necessitate moving theathletic fields. Under this system, the Ser-vice Emloyees, who leave their cars for mostof the day, park well away from the build-ings, the Staff members park next to theInstitute, and the students use the interveningspaces which are a reasonable distance towalk.

Through notices to employees from Presi-dent Compton, the employees have beenasked to leave the better spaces for students.If students will be more careful to park inthe marked spaces, there will be room formore cars in the available areas.

A gala "bull session" banquet wa,held at Slagle's Restaurant in theBrunswick Hotel, Boston at six o'clock Zlast evening, inaugurating the 1938_"" ~season of the Technology chapter of ,the Aeronautical Engineering Society..~

This dinner, which has ,become anannual affair of the society, has beenvery successful in the past few yearsnot only as a means for newcomers toget acquainted with members of theorganization, but also as a time to dis-cuss pet ideas and flying with theprofessors in the aeronautical engin-eering course.

The program committee, headed byWilliam II. lieser, '39, presented avariety of events which had been es-pectally planned for the evening. Many of the teaching staff of Course XVIwere present to sit in at the "b)ullsession" and discuss the more general

aspects of aviation with those present. The program committee announced

that several symposiums are to hehtduring the current year. The first ofthese will be held iin a downtownparlor in Boston on November nine-teenth, at which time several Arlly pilots will be present to represent thepractical side of the aviation industry.

A series of lectures sponsored by thesociety is to -be opened by Dr. Hein-rich Peters, of the Tech aeronauticalcourse, who will speak about the new

Pce o PTwoi

To the Editor:

In the last issue of The Tech, the

editorial which made a plea for the

teaching of "scientific journalism" atTechnology solicited my interest, and,

in general, my approval. However, I

should like to -be permitted to add alittle to tie argument, because, in com-

mon with the average collegiate edi-

torial (with due apologies) it has the

flavor more of the idealistic than o,

the practical. It might be more di-gestible if seasoned with several un-

deniable and perhaps biting facts withwhich the writer of the editorial ap-

parently was not and possibly could

not have been familiar.

in the first place, scientific reporting

has not "become an important fedtuft

or modern journalism," nor is there a

"wiae public demand for accurate annL

informative news about the activities

oi. scientists . . ." There are those,most or them technical graduates, wnlu

would like to make that cmaim, but

who realize that news of science and

engineering as yet occupy only an in-

signincanit place im the news columns.

Tlaey realize too that the public must

be miolly-coddled and spoon-ieal as Iar-

as its scienece news is concerned. It a

semblance of a technical terns is now

used in an effort to convert a highly

teclnnical concept into everyday "Jar-

goin," the reader, instead of reaching

tot a dictionary, which he prubamy

dioesn't have anyway, turns to thle back

page or tile paper and contents him-

D~e eaucaLea, 111SL to D~e able to dis-

L1119uis11 between "stralght" :ScienCtc

news and the "iake" or pseudo-

scIWeLUnC stories whict~ daily make ,a

uid LU clutter tip their minds, anu sec-

onld to realize that scientific research

is atesin~ed to play as an imporLant

part, in shaping the destinies of them-

selves anct their progeny as the court-

packing Dill or -iitler's ultimatum.

aIn the second place, it should be

pointed out that TecHnology lids ai-

reaffy takien steps toward tile education

oL Men who, as nearly as possible, wiliDet aole to conxbine writing daility with

genleral technical knowledge. These

Lneil lave been accomodated by Course

ILX-B where, under the supervision oi

.vroIessor R. G. Hudson, they make

taite~ major objective "technical jour-

nalismn," and are permitted to select

courses -which will give tliem a broad

technical background in a variety oI

scientife and engineering fields and all

the experience in writing which the

Institute has to offer. The Class oI1936 graduated a man in this category,

the Class of 1938 another, and thereare two other men who have recently

been converted to this new major

objective.

Graduates from such a course ofstudy should be well prepared to ob-

tain a job, because, in addition to spots

on. newspapers, the way should be

clear for them to join the publicity

departm-lents of industrial concerns, in-,

dustrial advertising agencies, or staffs

of technical journals. And, all these

failing, they will still have a generaltechnical training in about the best

recognized eilgineerig school in the

country.

As the appreciation for the tech-nological aspects of society grows, and

there are indications that it will grow,

it is hoped tha.t greater provision willbe made for the education of "technical

journalists." And, as your editorial

points out, and as Waldemar Kaempf-

feft, ex-science editor of the New YorkTinies, will agree, there is no better

place than Technology for the origina-

tion and promotion of such a type of

professional training. But the mil-lenium for the technical journalist has

not yet arrived -by any means. The

few who now seek careers in that field

are met at every corner with sym-

pathy, encouragement, and indulgence,

but with skepticism. The idea thdt

science should be interpreted is a new

one; right now the world is takingtinie out to think it over.

CONSTRUCTIONMEANS JOBS

For the last eight years the employmentsituation has been either poor or only fair andthe future in a college education has beencontinually doubted. The number of stu-dents has fallen off to some degree, but worstof all the morale of the students has beennoticeably lower in' recent years. It is prac-tically impossible for anyone to do his bestin something that takes as much whole

c..a-tcd codtnLt.cicrarion, as does the work atTechnology, while he is in considerable doubtabout the worth of the entire venture.

Almost any sign of returning good timesis pleasant to find, but most encouraging isthe evident present upturn of the heavy in-dustries, principally the building trades,brought to our attention by Professors C. B.Breed and V. B. \Wilbur, of the Civil En-gineering Department. Not only is it truethat a great number of our graduates areemployed in these heavier industries, butprosperous times for them means progressright down the entire line. Requests for mento fill positions have already begun to arriveat the Institute and some of them have notbeen '. lled because the demand was so heavy.

Just how long this trend will hold is notknown as yet, but such a change from pre-vious conditions will probably not die beforeJune unless some of the past fears of big busi-ness materialize. It is not time to stop hedgingentirely, when it comes to questions of a bal-ance between studies that will lead to sureemployment and those which might be moreinteresting, but a little time should tell wherewe are headed. WV'e are not out in the openyet, but students should have much moreconfidence in themselves with this rising tideof finaaces.

The hurricane may have had a large localeffect, government spending is no doubt be-ing felt, but whatever is opening up the pathto construction, it is a mark of confidencethat should mean prosperity.

Hodehlund Optimistic Over'lTheir Field Day

Track Teamn"If numbelrs mean anything, the

Froslh have a veryl definite chance towinl the relay race on Field Day,"stated Coach Hedlund when ques-tioned about the outcome of thestrluggle between the two underclassesat Techl on Field Day, Saturday,.October 2S.

Tech skating fans will be focused onGeorge WVheeler Carnrick, Jr., '40, ofMontclair, New Jersey. I

Carnrick was last season's varsitygoalie and distinguished himself asone of the greatest Sophomore hockey . .players in the Institute. He was born . .in the year of 1918 yet there is nothing ,,!in his calm features that would in- !dicate birth in this war troubled year.This modest star is 5 ft., 41/2 in. tall and weighs 145 lbs. He has very lig.ht features which blend into his tranquil personality. Howevelr George Carnrickis not all peace and quiet but a strongfighting spirit when ou th=:hei

field.'.This star came to Tech from

Northwood School, Lake Placid, N. Y., <:. -where he played hockey for the first::'.-time. He chose Technology for further f-~'[::'Jstudy because of his great interest in EORGE CARNRICK, JR., 40Chemical Engineering.

Besides being an "all around" ath-lete Carnrick has cumulatively a dean's list rating in his studies and has as ahobby a keen interest in photography. He is a member of Beta Theta Pifraternity.

Carnrick, while in his Sophomore year, won one of the six straight "T"sawarded last season iu hockey. During his first year at M.I.T. he won two

The team, which has lost but oneianl f'rom last year's valrsity, looks

forwvard to a very successful season.Any f'reshnman interestedl in going

out for this sl)ort should see JolhnAlexandria, captain of the team.

Dartmouth Scores First

llailev, of Dalrtlmoutl opened thescoring in the first ten minutes of thefilrst quarter. Herguth, of Tech madethe next score, in the second quarter,with two straight goals. This leftTech ahead 2-1 at the half, and seemedto put the game in the bag for ourplayers. But for a mishap in the thirdquarter, when Sosa was injured, wewould have been able to hold our lead.Sosa unfortunately stayed in the gamelesP)ite his injuries, and this gaveDartmouth the opportunity to maketliree straight goals in eight minutes.

50 Out for Frosh TeamOver fifty fellows have turned out

for the freshman relay team boost- ing the total number higher than everibefore in the history of track at Tech. Coach Hedlurid waxed very favorable:about the material and prophesied sev--eral excellent runners in the group.He also announced that any mall witha time of 26.4 in the 220 will standa splendid chance of being chosen forthe final team.

few remarks on the position of debat-ing at the Institute.

Those who upheld the affilrmlative inthe debate maintained that mnoderncivilization is bound to collapse in thenear future and that ourI descelndantstwill be overburdened to the point ofneurosis by attempts to co rrelate theunconnected scientific infor mationwhich we are rapidly accumtulalting to-day. Others claimed that democracyis losing its influence in modern so-ciety and, consequently, that fascismand other forms of tyranny will stifleintelligence and freedom of oppor-

Tech Lacked Teamwork

MI.I.T. was never able to overcomethis lead, and Dartmouth forged aheadto a 6- , victory. As individuals, theTech players were, for the most part,better men than the opposition, butas a team they lacked that unity whichis a wvell known attribute of the NewHampshire team. An interesting side-light of the game is the fact that ourmen scored more goals in this gamethan in the whole season last year.

The opening lineup for Tech was:Mitchell, g; Haden, Sosa, fb; Foster,Regaldo, lernandez, hb; Collazo,Samuels, Herguth, Wu, fore. Substi-tutions: Kirman for Samuels, West forCollazo, and Herguth for Sosa.

The Dartmouth lineup was Johnson,,: Gidney, Bagg, backs; Case, Thomp-soni, M~. Sample, G. Sample, Galbraiths.half backs; McElroy, deSchweinitz.David, Bailey, Salorn, fore.

sets of numerals being on both the Wrestling and Freshman Lacrosse Teams.Last year as his crowning achievement in athletics he was naned as "AllNew England" in hockey.

A goalie's job on a hockey team is a very responsible position and onewhich does not give much chance for the player to get into the "spotlight".However as early as in his first game at Tech George Carnrick distinguishedhimself "by delivering several of his 'octupus acts' successfully warding offthe invaders." Still later in the season he, was described as "a virtual miracleman, shedding pucks like a duck sheds water." Then before the big gamewith Army there appeared in a write-up discussing the probability of a Techvictory the statement that "George Carnrick would be depended on . .-"

So went the numerous tributes that this Sophomore star received lastyear. Tech is anxiously hoping for as good if not a better performance fromhim during this coming season.

'e are indeed very happy to include modest, genial George WheelerCalrmrick, a typical Tech gentleman and athlete, in the Massachusetts Instituteof Technology Sport's Hall of Fame.

The first race was marked by sixfalse starts before the gun; Cohasset'sskippers lrecrossed the line but thethiree erring M. I. T. skippers sailedthe -whole race before realizing thepremature start.

Cohlasset's team consisted of Frances\IcElvain, the champion wonman skip-

Although the team lost its lastmeet, it gained needed practice andexperience, which it can use to goodadvantage in the meet this Saturday.The team however will be handi-capped by the fact that Ed Lemanskiwho came in ahead of all other Techmen in the last meet, will be unableto start because of a bad leg.

"Modelrn industry cannot exist wvith-out cooperation", said Professor`rarren K. Lewvis at the annual smokerof the Technology Chapter of theAmerican Institute of Chemical En-gineers, held last Tuesday night inthe North Hall of Walker Memorial.

The meeting was opened by thepresident, Joseph R. Weeks, Jr., '39.Old and new 'business was quicklyr'UIn through after which the chair-mall introduced Professor Ernst A.Hauser who in turn introduced theprincipal speaker.

Dr. Lew-is opened by going back intohistory to prove the necessity for co-operation. He proved that the Greeknation fell into a rapid decline be-cause the Greeks could not cooperate.Similarly the Romans held sway fora long time because they knew howto cooperate.

He claimed that cooperative effortin modern industry actually givessatisfaction to the individual who doeshis part in the common effort. "Co-operative wor'k gives men the inspira-
