To the Editor of THE TECH:I hare been interested, as most other

Tech mnen probably have, ill the planproposed by Mr. Swope and it seeimsto mne that a little comment would lot

.be out of p~lace.211r. Swvope is a wise man and has,

without doubt, given his plan consid-.erable thought, but it seemis to me thatthe project, if carried out, would has-e

la detrimental rather than a helpful ef-fect upoII the Institute. One -of any ob-jctionls to the p~lall is that it wvould-educe the llumler of good men who

would come to the Institute each 3 ear.]if the tuition wvere advalced to mneetthe cost of education I believe that ifthe registration did not fall off at least,fi fteen hundred to twvo thousand menwould hav e to lborrowv money to meetthe increased cost. Meany men are atpresent leaving the Institute in 'debtand! an added debt of a thousand~ dol-lars more or less would not facilitatematters. I f a man starts his li fe workat twventy-five or thirty dollars a -,eekswith a debt of miore than a thousanddollars lie is indeed hand~icapped. Thereis no possible reason to believe that themen lbest able to mneet increased e~x-p~enses are the lbest men or the menmost +-worthl educatillg.

Tile idea of our moderni sy stem oftedulcatioll. as I1 unclerstande it, is to malke,+the more adv-alced, more highly slpecial-ized fornms of education more casilsaccessil'le to all-to increase flee advail-Lages op~en to rich Bane p~oor alile. 1think tlhat a much wviser, much moreconsistelt, much more efficienlt plaii, asall educational program rather thani ouetof b~usinless, would lee to rldce~(C the tu' -tionl rather than to increase it aild to-determine one-s fitness to remain at Techl-nology as far as possible 1lv Ilis albil-ity to (lo the assigned wvork;.

Sinlcerely,Stuart Johnl '26.

To the Editor of THE TECH:I noticed your editorial Mollday on

"Fatalism and Lazilless." I heartilvagree with your attitude towards nlar-rov-mi-nidediiess. However, don't forgetthat science is organized common sense,and truth, i f there is any allywhere.Moreover, it deals with all phenomenain an absolutely impartial manner. Spen-.cer rightly said that it wvas our greatestl inheritance and that we all should re-gard it with the mrost pro found respect.

You mentioned "progress" in Xyoureditorial-I suggest you read ProfessorJ. B. Bury's "The Ides of Progress,"and if this makes no impression tryProfessor J. W. Draper's "Conflict B3e-t'weenl Religion and Science."

Hopnefully ylours,W. E. Messer '24.

Bernard Shawe is alwvays interestingill anlv form. "The Devil's Disciple"shows hint in hiis lightest and most en-tertaining mlood, and the Copley p~lay-ers do it su fficiently wvell to give th~eaudience a full measure of his drasticart and satirical humor.

The plot is laid in Aniericall Revolu-tionlary times. Richard Dudgeon, mallof the world and religious scoffer,breaks puritanical conventions with^,reat glee. Thle clergv-nian of the town~

is to be hanged byv the Britishl, andDudgeonl, the devil's disciple, voluntar-ilv takses his place and proves himselfa ilan. The clergymanl's -Nvife is in-volved-the ulsual triangle. Clever in-cidents lead to a climiax in the gallowvsvard. The British war department andarmsv are severely criticized, and theNewv England clergy come ill for a goodhit of satire.

Hugh C. Bllckler play-ing RichardDudgeon in a swaggering carefree inan-ner gives the lbest characterization.Those seeking pure aniusernlent areprone to steer clear of Shawv becauseof his ' heavinless,'' but genuine diver-sionl, rather tlhan the usual philosophicalpropaganda, is to be found in "TileDevil's Disciplel."

it isthe stor, of tile poor b~ut aml-bitious girl who lives in a tenementin Act I and who marries the youngmilliotlaire at the end of the play, therebeing the usual conlplicatiolls in re-gard to social standing and the like.A little variation is introduced bv thefact that Duticanl Van Normanl, themilliollaire, wbo is very well portravedby Walter Gilbert, is averse to anyattention on the part of the fair sexand lives according to a very strictcode of morals. Anti Mason, in therole of the girl, gives an excellent per-formance.

Paul Gordon. playing the part ofHendrick Van Dekkar, who is handi-capped in his love affairs in that he isunable to speak a wiord of English,draws most of the laughs in the play.Mrs. Van Norman, portrayed by AnnaLaynlg, takes the part of a very un-usual mnother, tempting her son to be-come the least bit wicked, while RalphRemley, as Skiddy Stillman, gives avery good characterization of a so-ciety mall.

Match of Season

WEI HELPS CAPT. TRESSEL

Today the Engineer tCnnis team wvillmieet Boston College for tleir secondmatch of the season. The gamc isscheduled to start at two o'clock, and-vill be played oln the Oakley outdoortennis courts. C:aptain Tressel plansto rutl the same teani against PB. C. thatdefeated B. U. so decisivel- last weekTuesday; and as Boston College wasdefeated rather b~adly by Roston Uni-versitv last vear, the Institute racquet-ters are looking forwvard to all easygame.

Probable LineupAfter the B. U. gaine wvhicl turned

out so successfull- the Beaver team isIit finlc condition to meet the B. C.Ila-ers. Just wvho makll nlae uptlile tcam is still uncertain; however,Captain Tressel and IRusscll are sureto play. Dunni has been showvinlg upsll ill the eliminations held duriiig thepaSt veek, and will prolbai~v play thirdlI al. In the B. UjT. match lie plaveddtlirdf and casily disposed of his op°o-Inent. Harris it is expected mrill plaxfourth. for in the eliminations hli playcdIroadhurst to a 6-1, 6-0 defeat thusplacing himself fourth onl the list; al-though Broadhurst pla-cd well in thedoubles writh B. U. he has been slip-ping fast this last week during theeliniination contest, being beaten byEddv just recently and no-w holds sev-enth place. Harris 1as showvn mllarkedimprovement over his plaving in theB. U. game, and if lie continues ill hi-present form he wnill grcatly strengthen the team in this afternoon's match

Wei Assists TeamW. L. Wei '18, former captain of the

Institute team, bas leen helping Tres-sel and Russell during the past weeks,and has been a great aid to them be-cause of the valualle excperience he 1asto draw from. Wei came over withthe China Davis Cup team and tookthe intercollegiate championship honorsin both singles and doubles. He cap-tained the Institute tennis team in 1918,and that vear they rated second. Hisassistance in coacling has greatlystrengthened the teani, and it is con-sidered very fortunate that he is abl]eto assist them.

Besides being a worker in science hehas contributed much to scientific litera-ture. He was a collaborater of theAstrophysical Journal, and was editor ofthe Physical Review from 1913 until1916. He was on the Bureau of NavalOrdnance during the war and also onthe National Research Council.

Perhaps his greatest fame accrues tohim from his physics experimental worklld especially in the fields of radiation

and pressure of light. By a new formof radiometer he first discovered andmeasured the quantity of heat reaching

ie earth from several planets and fixedstars. The sensitiveness of this radio-meter may be judged from the factthat it is able to detect the heat of acandle at a distance of 16 miles.

3Mob, Cheated Out OfMovies, Hears Jazz

It was an anxious crowd that gath-tred in room 5-330 Monday after-noon. They assembled there withthe chief idea of seeing about 7,000feet of moving pictures of the Vic-torian Railway in Australia. Thefilm was not shown; the main reasonbeing that no operator could be ob-tained to run the machine. As aresult the somewhat angry mob de-manded that a member of the audi-encc step out and play the piano.After finally learning that no op-erator could possibly be obtained thepianist concluded his syncopated melo-dies and the crowd dispersed.
