Other chapters of this book deal atength with further proofs of the origin

of the species, involving the varioustransitional stages passed through bythe human embryo from the time ofconception to birth. The writershows in a very concise manner howthe unborn child assumes forms thatrange from that of the most primitiveanthropoid young to its final man-likestate, drawing from these illustrationsthe theory that our modern being Instill based upon an exceedingly ab-original foundation.

PHYSIOLOGY, by V. H. Mottram.New York: W. W. Norton & Com-pany. $3.

Since the World War, there hasbeen a tremendous growth in theavidity with which the popular mindhas sought out what was hithertoforeconsidered as information within theken of professional men and womenalone. But one subject after anotherhas been popularized for general pub-lic consumption.

Physiology is the latest to fall intothis category, and V. H. Mottram hasdone his task passably well, so thatthis current work represents a com-prehensively handled undertaking.The casual reader will find much that

Io new to him concerning the func-tioning of his body; while the readerwho has background in the subjectwill find things presented in a popu-lar way, which, while not detractingfrom its veracity, increases its abilityto appeal to the reader's imagination.

EVOLUTION OF MAN

CONCERNING MAN'S ORIGIN, by SirArthur Keith. New York, G. P. Put-nam's Sons.

In a rather absorbing resume of thevarious scientific facts pointing to thegradual development of mankind toits present state, Sir Arthur Keith,D.Sc., F.R.C.S., LL.D., F.R.S., has com-bined a series of addresses he hasgiven at intervals to many of thescientific societies of England.

The first lecture, reviewing man'sorigin, the presidential address of thewriter before the British Association,is quite a simple summary of most

THE MADCAP

Rather than being the conventional

musical comedy, "The Madcap" at the

Shubert is as the program states, a

comedy with music. The element of

comedy is at all times uppermost, but

the music, though pleasant, is noth-

ing exceptional.

Although the story is none too new,

it has been dressed up extremely well

with clever lines and characters so

that one forgets completely its age.A woman with a daughter of twenty inorder to secure a millionaire husbandtells him her daughter is but twelve.To preserve the illusion till the mar-riage the daughter, played by Mitzi,proceeds to act and dress her sup-posed age. Of course numerous com-plications ensue, but at no time dothey become so involved as to losetheir humor.

Mitzi carries off the lead part ex-tremely well and in a child's clothesin which she "can show her legs with-out attracting attention" she looksquite youthful. The supporting partsalso are for the most part well acted.With an unusually good looking chorusand some clever stepping there is en-tertainment for the eyes as well asas the ears. It offers excellent proofthat a new idea and plot are not neces-sary to produce an enjoyable musicalcomedy if the author and cast are suffl-ciently competent.

TECHNICAL GAiYETY

DO we get too businesslike during our four years at Tech-nology? Is there a danger of our minds becoming dead-

rened to the lighter things of life by our constant delving intoIhigher mathematics, electricity, or chemistry? When we gradu-ate, are we never going to talk or think of anything but thatphase of engineering which we may choose?

It is this likelihood which Professor Babcock of the RailwayEngineering department warned against in an informal talkto TX-E TECH staff at their banquet last Wednesday evening.He has found, he said, that engineers have a tendency to sur-round themselves always with their work, and never to thinkof anything else. We have to be careful that we don't becomewalking handbooks. "Gatherings of bankers or lawyers arejolly affairs. The men take the time to put on the 'glad rags',but a note of formal informality prevails, and business doesnot furnish the main topic of conversation."

"At the engineering functions, however, the men come intheir sack suits, being inclined not to bother to change fromtheir business clothes, and what 'dead' affairs they are! Noth-ing but engineering talk, and while it may be interesting, it'sno fun after a full day of the same stuff."

Along this line is a new project sponsored by Boston Busi-ness men. Showing that they are not wholly engrossed in theirprofessions, a number of the prominent merchants, financiers,preachers, doctors, architects, and lawyers have formed a Busi-ness Men's Art Club, and the premiere exhibit of their workis acclaimed as a distinct success. Anything but the typicalatmosphere of the art studio pervades, but the pictures aremany of them worthy of a master. These men, all of themamateurs, have found time from their work to indulge theirfancies and produce some excellent works of art.

We might well get a big lesson from the experience of thesemen. Of course, we can't go to the other extreme and let out-side activities get us out of school, or lose us our job, as thecase may be in future years. However, if we may find something in which we are interested, something with which we mayprofitably use up our spare time, we will be much the betterforit. Don't get stale!

T.EN PLANKS

bIGHT in step with the rest of the presidential campaigns,Technology's four new presidential candidates have made

a gentleman's agreement to condense their platforms into thefollowing general points. Their thoughtful and diligent an-swers to these questions will appear on the editorial page ofMonday's issue of THE TECH.

FRESHMAN VICTORY

Undaunted by the Andover setback,less than two weeks ago, the Engineerfreshman track team turned out infull force on Tech Field MWednesday

afternoon and swamped the TuftsFrosh, 98 to 24. Phil Hardy won the

discus with a heave of 125.6 feet, tobreak the freshman record made byFred Glantzberg ill 1924 by over 11

feet. Hardy also won the high hur-dles and ran a close second to Far-quhar of Tufts in the lows, and thentopped off the afternoon by placingsecond in the shot to Bror Grondal.Grondal incidentally has been givencredit for his pill toss of 17 feet 2inches in the Andover meet as a newfreshman record. Wednesday he gotthe iron ball out 45 feet.

M ile Run Feature of the MeetIn the mile John McNiff of Technol-

ogy took the lead on the second lap,but his team-mate, Dick Baltzer,passed him on the third circuit. Mc-Niff and Semple, also of M. I. T., hadone of their characteristic last lapduels, but Mae had the punch andnosed out Semple by inches for sec-ond place. The time was 4 minutes482-5 seconds.

In both the dashes Charlie Broderhad things pretty much his own way,winning both races handily. PhilBenjamin tied for first in the highjump, with Northrup and Cohen, both

f Technology, and won the broadjump. H~arl Dallforth, in his first polevault competition, tied for first withBugden of Tufts.

Herbie Allbright and Wen Currierran a nice half, the last race of theafternoon, and Currier came throughto the tape in a close finish with histeam-mate. The meet Wednesday hasboosted the freshman chances againstH6ly Cro-ss frosh when they meet May12 at Tech Field. The summary:

Coach Jack Pearson heads the listof Engineer gymnasts who traveldown to New York this week-end tocompete in the National Gymnastictormnamient. The results of this meetwill be of great importance since thewinners are practically certain ofplaces on the 1928 Olympic team.

David Q. Wells and Norman Dolloffare the other Engineers who will*make the trip. Dolloff will try tocome 'bacr with a place in the tum-bling while Dave will concentrate onthe horizontal bars. Olympic exer--cises are required in every event ex--cept the itmbling, which is not auOlympic event. Dave can do thecOlympic exercises only on the horn-:zontals, so this is the only event-which be intends to enter.

Pearson is entered in all of theOlympic events and hopes to place ina number of them, but he will meetsome stiff competition, especiallyfrom Yachim, who is the leading gym-nast of the country and is a suremember of this year's Olympic team.Jack hopes to make the Olympic*team- this year and if he comes,through in the Nationals his ambi--tion will be realized.

Eagle Team ShowsToo Much Class

For Beaver Nine

Crosby Shines For Technology-Team Shows Improvement

In Fielding

Boston College easily defeated the

Beaver baseball team, 9 to 1, at Uni-versity Heights on Wednesday. Thegame was featured by the fine twirlingof the Eagle pitchers, Johnny Mantleand Charlie Murphy. Ted Gannonstarted for the Beavers and kept theEagles pretty well in tow during thefirst few innings, but he began toweaken in the fourth inning, when theEagles scored the first of a series ofruns.

Ralph Crosby did by far the bestwork for the Beavers, making a one-handed catch of a Pat Creeden hit, andin so doing prevented an otherwisesure home run. Ralph was workingout in right field and was the onlyBeaver to get more than one hit.

Both Teams Score in the FirstBianchi started the Beaver fireworks

in the first inning, when he received apass. Crosby singled. Engler waspassed and Cullinan hit into a doubleplay, scoring Bianchi for the onlyBeaver score. The Eagles came rightback in their half after receiving twopasses, a fielder's choice and a longsacrifice fly, scoring Pat Creeden.

Neither team could do anything un-til the fourth inning, when the Eaglesgot another score. Moncewicz drew afree ticket, Stokinger singled, O'Brienforced Moncewicz at third and Mantleand Creeden walked, forcing Stokingeracross. This started the Eagle scor-ing and in the next few innings theypled up a total of eight runs.

Eagles Score Two in FifthGibson started the scoring for the

Eagles in the fifth, when he waspassed. A fielder's choice by O'Day, asingle by Fred Moncewicz and a sacri-fice by Stokinger drove in tno runs.In the sixth neither team could doanything, but in the seventh BostonCollege scored another on two infieldhits and fielder's choice.

Four runs were gained by the Eaglesin the eighth. An infield hit, twopasses and a Texas leaguer brought inthe first tally. A passed ball scoredanother and then Gibson got a freewalk. O'Day sent a hot liner to Culli-nan, at short, who could not hang onto it, thus letting in another score. Ahigh foul fly which wetas caught nearfirst base by Burke let Al Westonscore from third to end the Eaglerally. In their half of the ninth theBeavers could do nothing.

As a whole this game was muchbetter than the Te rrier tragedy. Thefielding was fairly good, but the Beav-ers were Beak at tlhe bat. Ralph Cros-by and Cullinan are the consistent hit-ters on the tearn. Gannon passed 10men, which was responsible for a largepercentage of the runs. However, theteam has improved and should do fair-ly well against the Terriers when theymeet again on the eigllth. The score:
