In education, Mr. Lernerhas taught at Harvard, WilliamsCollege and at various times wason the faculties of Sarah LawrenceCollege, Wellesley and BrandeisUniversity.

With regard to graduate students,Thresher announced that the num-ber of applicants is lower thanlast year's but higher than theyear before. He added that thenumber of men admitted to Gradu-ate School will be about the sameas last year.

Institute Standards UralteredAdmissions officials emphasized

that the standards of admission atthe Institute are not in any waybeing altered because of possible

changes in the types of studentswho are applying now,

Many of next year's freshmenwill n6t have reached the age ofeighteen by the time they enterin the fall. Thus if the present lawregarding college students remainson the books, these men will besafe from induction until they havefinished one year at college.

President Killian has pointed outthat the eighteen-year-old draftbill, if and .when it is passed byCongress, may not go into effect intime to effect Institute applicantsdue to delays in setting up the ma-chinery for its application.

the /,rinceton Triangle Club.Although TECH SHOW has invited

.r many times in previous years,BlUI has never before accepted theinvitation.

One possi3le reason given forthe acceptance of the invitationby BI, is that lthey were veryimpressed with the music. Theydecided, after hearing only nineof the sixteen songs written byJoher Lefier with the assistanceof Norm Telles and Bob Couliard in"'Call Me Mummyl", to publish thescore in folas form. According toBMI, TECH SHOW is one of thetwo college musicals that h]as evermade -a success of music sales. Thsaccomplishment took place in 1949with "O Say Can You Si."

In addition to the representativesfrom BMI, the Critics from theBoston papers and some of theBoston Disk Jockeys have beeninvited to attend the opening nightperforman.e.e

MHousing Vacancies

Loss To InstituteThere are numerous vacancies in

all the Institute housing unitslocated on campus, according toMr. Frank M. Baldwin, Director ofDining and Housing facilities at theInstitute. Both Baker House and

X last Campus Dormitories were com-pletely filled at the beginning oflast term, and it was expected thatmost of the occupants of the Bar-racks Dormitory would move overto Riverside House when Building22 was about to be demolished.

What actually happened was thata very large number of studentsmoved to fraternities, from EastCanpus as many as 160. Also afairly laxge number of studentsmainly freshmen, flunked out lastterm. Some vacancies have beenfilled by students who had beenliving in rooaning houses in Bostonand Cambridge but who preferredto live on campus. The remainingempty spaces, even though not re-quiring so much upkeep as oc-cupied rooms, are nevertheless a

i source of financial loss for the In-stitute and, especially in the caseof Riverside, where they are beingused to house athletic teams andother visitors. Only the westerntwo wings of Riverside House arenow occupied, and no plans haveso far been made for the possibleoccupation of spare lodging spaceby Government personnel.

A sweep of thle first three placesin the 300-yard run, final event onthe program, carried.the EngineerTrackmen to a 62/2-45y/2 victoryover the New Hampshire Universityrunners last Saturday afternoonat Briggs Field. The win gave theInstitute runners a final dual meetrecord of one win and two losses.

The key race in the meet was the1,000-yard run. With three events,the 1,000, broad jump and 300, leftto be run off, Tech held a 4 pointedge. With Captain Ed Olney,favorite in both the 1,000 and the300-yard sprint absent, ChuckVickers was the only Beaver entryleft.

By EDWARD F. LEONARD '53 andFRANK J. O'NEIOL '52

For our third expedition into theland of womankind we chose LasellJunior College, an isolated home for500 junior college women who studyeverything from business to chemis-try. Lasell is located near Auburn-dale, which to the uninitiated, likeus, is $3.35 worth of cab fare, ora trolley and bus trip from Massa-chusef;ts Subway station, amountingto some fifty cents for btwo, one way.

Isolation Makes InterestIsolation seems to do things to

Lasell girls. There's usually onlyone generalization to make abouta large group of girls-their at-titude. The Lasell attitude is good.They're friendly, compatible andinteresting. They are, for the mostpart, wPell mannered ladies, but theydon't make you feel as if you'veforgotten all the etiquette younever bothered to memorize.

The girls havte a better thanaverage knowledge of what it coststo date, and that knowledge seemsto work two ways with them. Whenit's time for a special evening theyseem to expect their date to go

'~al1 out," but they don't expectmuch on a normal date. Fraternityparties, dormitory socials, smallparties--hey're all '"swell."

The girls are, however, car-con-scious. Thley have a sophisticatedversion of the high-school "carcrush." Talk hovers around con-vertibles, the faster and louder thebetter.

About ninety-five per cent of thegirls smoke. eighty-five per centof them will drink, with consider-ably less than that figure finding itnecessary to do so on a date.

Hours Horrible

Permissions are terriblel Satur-day permissions, unless a girl takesan "overnight," require that theybe in at 12:45. Fridays are evenworse, with the average deadlinerunning around 11:30. Overnites,which have to be at an approvedBoston hotel, bring the deadline upto 2:00.

To round out the statistics, thegirls range from 18 to 20, agewise, with the majority of them coming from Massachusetts or the NewYorlk-New Jersey area.

Techmen have a moderate ratingwith them. Principal competitioncomes from a second-rate businesscollege with a high playboy en-rollment, replete with convertibles.Boston College boys are too cold;Harvards aren't considered in the"|worh-dating" class, and BostonUniversity is just below us in a spotquiz.

Tall Techmen Terrific

Specifically, the girls like talldates who can dance. They shouldbe able to hold their liquor, we'retold. As we said, if they've got acar, they're in that much better,and of course that much faster.

In the way of incidental informa-tion, lates are worth one demeritper five minutes, the dean's firstname is "Ruthie," and you'd betterget good directions on how to getto whichever of the twenty-oddhouses you're interested in.

As with any other place, yourluck, from the standpoint of looks,will depend on who gets your datefor you. You've got competition,and if you don't make arrange-ments earl in the week, it's yourown fault.

Nine boats are out this year in-oaludne Fresh crews. -No ,perma-nent seatings have ibeen announcedas yet Iby the coaches. However thetemporary varsity lineup featuresseven veterans of hast year's com-petition.

Coach Jim McMilliRThe varsiy crew is under the

oaching of Jim McMillin, a 6Y2footer fromn earle. Jim came toTech kn 1940 and is another inthe long line of U. of Washingtongraduates in American coacingranks. In his undergraduate row-lg d¢ays Jim achieved a fine recordas no. 5 man in the vars4ty shellsof '35, '36 and 137 and was captainof his crew for .the last two years.

He had the honor of leaddg thebeat that won the trials and putthe West Coasters in the Olympi'sof 1936. This crew was undefeatedthrough.out the period o~ Ji'm'sreign. Be works his boys hard andwith the material and time he shashe does an excellent Job.

The Fresh are coached iby'9Chuck" Jackson wso cane herein '46 after leaving the Air Force.Previously he rowed (or U. ofWashington as did Jim, and coinci-dently, he also rowed no. 5 position.His boat was one of the ,fastestknown. With his coachirng the engi-neer Frosh came in second in theEastern chmioonship two yeasago. Incidently, he is pretty con-fident of his new material andlooks for an obimistic future.

Two Big Events

The winners of the two big eventsof the season are both rewardedby cups from Tech. The first is theCompton cup given to the winnerin the annual struggle between

Harvard, Rlutgers, Princeton, andTech. The second is the RoweMemorial cup and is engraved,"Presented By Charles Haydn."This cup is awarded to the winnerof the eastern dhampionsips, aregatta involving ,all of the 12 ,bigEastern colleges.

Last year the Engineers' varsityrecord looked like tls: In the firsscheduled race they placed second,(behind HIarvard), out of threeboats; Their second try -they againtook second position (behind -Haz-yarTd) in a 4 shell race. In theirthird crack, the Eastern sprintchampionship, Ithey were theric-tors, beating out 2 other com-peting boats. The Marietta Regattagave them fifth position when theycamne up against strong oppositionof ithe western crews.

Start April 21

The mile and three quarter raceswill start on April 21 when theEngineer Varsity will tackle B.1J.

Sinclair Buckstaff and Paul Pol-linger came through for Tech'svarsity and frosh squads respec-tively ,to take first place in theirweight classes at the annual NewEngland Inter-Coliegiate wrestlingchampionships last Saturday.

The meet lasted for ,two dayswith the trials on Friday and thefinals on Saturday. The Techmenhad to compete against Williams,Springfield, Amherst, Coast Guard,Boston University, Tufts andWesleyan.

'Buokstaff, wrestling in the 137-pound class, won three straight byscores of 2-0, 4-2, and the finals by6-0. During the regular season hewon only four out of seven matches,tied one. This record, while notspectacular, is quite understandableconsidering the fact that he waswrestling above his proper weightclass. Bucksaf, a Junior in courseXVI, is a likely choice for nextyear's Captain.

Pollinger throughout the seasonhas been a consistent winner forthe frosh team. He won four outof his five matches, losing only toa member of the powerful Brownsquad. Pollinger's future as awrestler here at Tech is verypromising. The team is badly inneed of reinforcement in the lowerweight classes and he wrestles at130 pounds.

Other men to score for the Var-sity squad were Captain BartonConant and Dick Landy. Conanttookhir ce i thi plac e the 167-pcoundclass, losing a very close bout on areferee's decision. Dick Landy tookfourth place in the 177-pound class.

Temh's Vaisitr squad came out ofthe meet in seventh place and thefrosh in sixth place. The varsity,however, was five points down tostart with due to the necessity ofhaving to forfeit one weight class.

Treck Teems VictoriousAginst New Heanmpshire

(ContiTued from Page 2)the gap, Vickers took an easy first,setting a new Institute record of2 min. 20.4 sec. O'Donnell camefrom behind with two laps to go totake second place. The previousrecord of 2:20.5 was set by Olneyonly three weeks ago.

The Beaver squad stood upamazingly well in the field events,led by a sweep in the high jump.George Thompson took firs with5'107/8", with Dave Freeman andKen Bjork tying for second. JerryConnor added a close second in theshot put, coming within two inchesof the winning distance.

New Hampshire fell rather badlyin -the mile and two-mile raceswhere Bob Bodwell and Dave Web-ber had been rated as strong con-tenders, respectively. Nicholsonbreezed to easy victories in bothraces, with Carl Swanson takingsecond for Oscar Hedlund's men in

the mile.Grenier, Childs Also Win

Tech's other first places weretaken by George Grenier andKen Chitlds. Grender won the 600 in1:15.3 and Childs took first in thedash. The two tied for first placewith identical times of 34.4 sec. inthe 300-yard run.

The Beaver Fresh made it adouble victory by walloping Hunt-ington Prep by a 56-25 count. ThePrelsters were hampered by theabsence of several men, who weretaking College Board exams, in-cluding national Prep School broadjump champion, Fred Collier.

Williams Sets RecordIan Williams of the Tech Frosh

took advantage of Collier's absenceby setting a new Freshman Cagerecord of 20' 6" in the broad jump.The old record of 20' 5" was set lastyear by Dick Segien. EarlierWilliams came within a tenth of asecond of the Freshman 600 record,winning the event in 1:16.6. Healso tied for third in the high jumnp.

Sid Klein of the Beaver Froshupset New England Prep championDick Gleason in the 300-yard run,capturng the event in 34.2 sec.

-This year it. looks like SigmChi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and thewinner of the Thea Chi-Girad.House tilt on March 22 at 6:10PM. will be in the championshiproundrobin playout starting April3rd. Another sure ,bet is Phi GammaDelta for winning league F.

the highest that Tech has fired thisseason, the fact that it was firedunder adverse mange conditions to-gether with a comparison of the'scores of the other teams will showthat the victory margin was con-siderable.

Herb Voelcker's individual scoreof 287 was high for the team andfor the entire match. All-AmericanTom Breen fromthe University ofVermont was second high in themath with a 285, while Tech'sArthur Auer was third with another285.

$tudentmFacuityEnlists New Aid

The Stud-ent-Faculty Committee

held a very successful dinner meet-

ing in the Graduate House last

Thursday evening. Several prob-

lems w-exe diwussed and two veryimportant decisions were reached.

First, the committee decided toactively encolurage the organiza-tion of Student-Faculty cmmit-tees in every department of thieInstitute. Several courses alreadyhave these departmental commit-tees and they have proved to beexcellent channels for transmitting

criticisms and suggestions as well

as excellent means to establish

good social contacts between stu-defts and instructors.

Investigating Suabcommltee FormedA slbcommittee has been organ-

ized which will examine Student-Faculty committees in courses

where they already exist and in-

vestigate those departments which

do not yet have individual commit-

tees. Further plans call for init-

ing groups of Interestedl students

and faculty members to form new

departmental committees.

The committee also resolved to

acqualnt the M.I.T. fans-Lly more

fully -with its activities, especially

its function of investigating com-

plaints or suggestions from any

student or group of students and

requesting faculty consideratlon of

,worthwhile problems.

*Oerbers Awarded

Honerary Doetorate

By Swedish lnstituteProfessor C. Richard Soderberg,

head of the Department of Me-

chanical Engineering at the Massa-

chusetts Institute of Technology,

has just returned from Sweden,

where he was awarded -he honorary

degree of Doctor of Technology by

the Chalmers Institute od Tech-

nology, one of Europe's mosti dis-

tinguished technioal institutions.

Chalmers Institute of Tech-

nology was fournded in 1830, begin-

ning as a school of naval architec-

ture and expanding to become an

outstanding institution of higher

learning. la recent years it has

become one of the world's centers,

of important developments in com-

munications theory.

Dr. Soderberg was graduated

from Chalmers Institute in 1919,

and ithe honorary degree which was

awtarded to him was the first of its

rank to be given by the inztitution.

Dr. Soderberg joined the staff of

M.I.T. in i938 and is widely known

as an authority on turbine design.
