Gelett B grgess Passe On;Creator 0 'Purple Cow'

By ED EIGELProbably very few of the many

who have trudged through the halls.of Tech since its !beginning haveever seen a purple cow. Yet, onlyone of these thousands of studentsand alumni have ever thought towrite this fact down on paper. Hisname was Frank rGelett Burgess.

Born here in IBioston in 1866,Gelett Burgess is only one of themany graduates of the Institutewho have achieved renown aswriters. However, his name, minusthe Frank, is undoubtedly -the bestknown from this group. Becauseof his Goops and his 'purple cow,he has acquired a place in literarythistory.

Pulls Down StatueAfter receiving his B.S. degree

from the Institute in 1887, GelettBurgess was for .three years adraftsman with the Southern Pa-cific Railroad. In 1890, he took ajob as instructor in topographicaldsrawing at the University of Cali-fornia. However, he left ,this in-stitution three years later as a re-sult of an incident in which he tookpart, and which involved the pull-ing-down of a cast iron statue ofDr. Cogswell, which Burgess hadalways regarded as one of the aes-thetic scandals of San Francisco.

At this point in his life, Burgessbecame interested in the literaryaspects of our world, and was for

a year associate editor of a smallmagazine called Wave. Irn 1895, hebecane an editor of a similar ven-ture known as the Lark. It was inthe first issue of this magazine thatthe now famous lines beginning, 'Inever saw a purple cow . . ." firstalppeared. Burgess Wften wrote theentire copy for an issue of the Lark,from the cover design -to the adver-tisements.

Goops AppearIn 1897, Gelett Burgess published

the first of his books, "Vivette."Three years later, he wrote "Goopsand How to be Them." Goops werea queer race of ill-behaved chil-dren, whose atrocious ,mannerswere warnings to youngsters inreal life. The Goops 'became sopopular that Burgess published twosequels to the original, 'MoreGoops" in 1903, and "The Goop En-cyclopedia" in 1'918. All of -thesebooks were in the form of shortverses.

Since the beginning of the twen-tieth century, Burgess has writtenmany books on varied topics. His"Two O'Clock Courage" was thefirst of several detective stories.One of his most popular worksother than the Goops was "AreYou a Bromide?" 1907, which dealta healthy blow against "chestnuts"and platitudes. His '"Burgess Un-abridged" contributed many of his

New Tech Show NowVRehearsing Song, ScriptName Has Ye T 0ome

With three rehearsals a week to get the cast and chorus in its usualexcellent shape, this year's Tech Show is well on its way. It will bepresented on the evenings of December 7 and 8 at the Cambridge Highand.Latin School.

The story has been written and the music is nearing completion, butaccording to Doug Haven, general manager of the show, the title is stillunder consideration.

This year's show has a Bostonian setting and concerns a caveman ina local museum who suddenly comes to life. At least that's what SmilingJack Jackson, big-time publicity man, wants the public to think.

Jackson will stop at nothing toNew ombusion ab make a buck, and plans to haveToe Reasearch Ram JlW;th Running Test

By WILLIAM T. KNIESNER

Ram jets capable of speeds ttwo and six-tenths times the sof sound, ductive rockets, andmixtures will undergo researctthe new Combustion Research Ioratory now under construcTIhis new laboratory will be direby Professors Hoyt C. HottelGlenn C. Williams of the ChenEngineering Department's E]Research Laboratory.

Started a month ago, consttion of a third floor, on thewing of the Sloan Laborabuilding, will .huse the neworatory, which iwill also conportions of the second and grcfloors. This construction, cos$180,000, is expected to be compliby January and actual operashould be in full swing six to e:months from now. The Navifurnishing $350,000 for the ne,sary equipment and facilities.

Basic Combustion ResearchBasic combustion research

These experiments will be cducted in eight soundproof 1cells, because the typical combtion chamber, one by three by teen inches, produces objectionanoise. Two of these cells aresigned to deaden a noise up todecibels, roughly equivalent to t]of an aircraft engine only incaway from one's ear. In any ceno noise will be heard by passer-by. Acoustical consulta:for this job is the firm of Bolt, Banek, and Newman. These exp¢ments may be controlled by a sptator watching through a glIwindow in the soundproof panling.

Rocket Research AnticipatedResearch will also be conduct

on ductive rockets, used to boosiram jet up to one and four-tent;he speed of sound, this spebeing necessary so that the reet can begin to operate using tcompressed air generated byforward motion.

the caveman wrestling in the bigarenas, playing golf matches withhis club, and judging beauty con-tests, not to mention his escapadeswith the other sex. However, dueto the action of a mad M.I.T.scientist, unforeseen complicationsarise and Smiling Jack finds him-self with more than he can handle.

George Marcou returns to TechShow as the caveman and JeanThomas, last year's Queen Yasmum,comes with him. Pete Noonan playsSmiling Jack, and the cast includesSally Arnold, Myna Nickel, MikeChivers, and J. P. Benkhard.

Pete Leavitt wrote the show andNat Levine is putting the finaltouches on the music. Doug Havenis general manager and director;Paul Lux, buIsiness manager; andBob Esch, production manager.Professor William Greene andBrewster Denny are again thefaculty advisors.

This year, Tech Show haschanged places on the social calen-dar with Techs-a-Poppin. Present-ing the show near the end of thefirst term has eliminated the hur-ried spring schedule of formeryears, when the show was presentedin the busy month of March.

Inst. ProF's Book OnLife Of Wilson's Sect'Gets Nation Wide Notice

Joseph Tumulty, President Wood-row Wilson's secretary, is said tohave played a significant part inthe puzzle of how a "shy, scholarly

r professor" became President of theI United States through the "brawl-

ing, compromising, conciliatingprocess of American politics." "JoeTumulty and The Wilson Era," byProfessor John M. Blum of the His-tory Department, is a biography ofTumulty with emphasis upon hisrole as Wilson's secretary. Againin the words of the publishers, the"devoted, charming, indefatigableJoseph Tumulty" did, among otherthings, devise publicity campaignsand also won the support of thepress.

Mr. John M. Blum, always in-terested in politics, is on the staffof the Institute as Assistant Pro-fessor of History and AssociateEditor of "The Letters of TheodoreRoosevelt." Born in 1921 in NewYork City, Professor Blum attendedAndover and graduated from Har-vard summa cumn laude in 1943.He served on an anti-submarinevessel during the war and alsoworked in the Office of the Chiefof Naval Operations. He then re-turned to Harvard for his M.A. andPh.D. in American History.

Published last July, the book tookfour years of part-time work andone ,whole year of consistent writ-ing before it was completed. Inwriting this book Mr. Blum was thefirst person to have free access toTumulty's papers. He also usedunpublished documents of theWilson Era in his research.

in particular was so associatedwith his name that he could go no-where withlout it following in hisfootsteps. He grew to hate thecreature, and years after its ap-pearance, he wrote a sequel to thefamous quatrain threatening In-stant death to anyone who daredquote it to him.

Although people have stoppedreading his works as much as theyonce did, Geletr Burgess, until hisdeath three weeks ago, was one ofour best-loved humorists. His lifepoints out at least one significantfact: If- you have a degree in CivilEngineering and have never seena purple cow, the world of litera-ture could well be your field of labor.

I I I,. 9!1 rmx-n IA STUDENT ASSEMBLY-A REORGANIZATIONOF UNDERGRADUATE GOVERNMENT

If there was any doubt that it is high time for a changein the student government setup at the Institute, it should havebeen disspelled by the most recent meeting of the InstituteCommittee during which twenty minutes were spent discussinga question which should not have been brought up at all. Ascurrently constituted, this body is ineffective, bogged downwith details, and incapable of commanding the interest of one-tenth of the student body.

The concept of the .Committee as a collection of interestgroups as represented by the various activities is one cause ofits present floundering. The committee should rightly have oneinterest-that of the students-and should be responsible tothis interest on a full-time basis. If the activities are not ateach other's throats, then routine regulation with regard todates of functions, finances, etc., can be properly left up tovarious service groups such as the W'alker Memorial Committee.If at the other extreme a crisis occurs among activities, thenthe problem becomes a legitimate undergraduate grievance,to be approached from the overall point of view of what isbest for the students.

Furthermore, the Institute sorely needs a student groupwhose chief function is to advise the Administration on studentopinion and needs, and to point up flaws in the Inlstitute's struc-ture. Not half enough time was spent last spring in fact-findingand reasoned judgement on the Administration's proposals forcampus living. Institute Committee knew, or should haveknown, what problems the Institute faced in this regard andwhat proposed solutions were in the wind. It should have in-vestigated. It knows now that the parking situation is still along way from a satisfactory solution. It should investigate,Implicit in such action should be a crystallization of studentopinion in a permanent -form and a presentation of all facts intheir proper relations. Investigations need not be militantlyderogative affairs.

To undertake these necessary functions, the Institute Com-mittee must annul its Marriage with thevarious campus activi-ties. It must stop burdening itself with the detail of regulatingactivities. It must stop drawing its membership from alreadyoverworked activity leaders.

To make itself responsible to the students, to commandtheir interest, and to effectively advise the Administration, theInstitute Com-mittee should reorganize itself into a StudentAssembly with approximately fifty members, all elected andrepresenting equally the four classes and three living groups.An appropriately chosen Executive Committee would maintainthe continuity of the larger group and would coordinate thework of the various service groups. With the Assembly mem-bers all directly responsible to specific constituents, some dentmight be made in the Herculean task of overcoming students'apathy and of generating among students a genuine interestin the Institute community. This so-called "broadening of thebase" of undergraduate life cannot be accomplished by merereorganization, however. Assembly members must be respon-sible in fact as well as in theory. They must discuss studentneeds, bring these needs before the Assembly, and bring backthe results of the Assembly's fact-finding. In short, the presentemphasis on regulation must be replaced with the philosophyof service to the student and the school.

CONFERENCE AFTERMATHTwo weeks ago the first annual leadership conference was

held at Swampscott. Thirty-five members of InstLitute Commit-tee met and pooled their ideas on what student governmentshould be and how it should operate at Technology. Whilenone of the views presented at the meeting were new, theygave a background of opinion that should prove of great valueto the Student Government Investigating Committee in theweeks to come.

Unfortunately, the phase of the conference that dealt withleadership will be of value only to those few who attended.Next year the conference should be held on Institute groundsso that outstanding Sophomores and Juniors, the men whowould benefit most from discussions on leadership, will be ableto attend.

been published, Burgess continuedto dauble in other means of ex-

You've heard of the Penn Relays. Buthave you ever heard of a relay where thehurdles are mountains, the average strideis thirty miles, and the track stretchescoast to coast?

It's the Bell System's &- Re&-jand it brings East and West together inone of the most important events in thehistory of communications.

Telephone construction crews have justrecently completed the coast-to-coast,Ward& ee& system. Today, LongDistance calls ride, on radio microwaves,beamed through the air from tower totower. And, for the first time, televisionprograms have been flashed from coastto coast.

The new system supplements the thou.sands of miles of wire cable that alreadytie the nation together. It helps makeAmerica's vast communications networkeven stronger and more flexible. And itcould hardly happen at a better time. Thedemands of defense are heavy and urgent.

HOW Ra_~ e9T ] WORKS. Microwaves travel in a straight line. So relaytowers are usually built on hilltops and spaced about thirty miles apart. Just as arunner picks up the baton from another runner, so each tower picks up microwavesfrom its neighbor, and with complex electronic equipment amplifies and focusesthem like a searchlight, then beams them accurately at the next tower. And hun-dreds of Long Distance calls ride the beam at the same time.
