Both the Junor presdent, Mchael A. Kuryla, and James R. Thomson, the Sophomore presdent, feel qute confdent n the freshmen and Sophomore classes, respectvely. However, Kuryla feels that the Freshmuen "are dong 70%o of what they really could do." Thomson, n all possble confdence, says, "The fellows are dong a good job on the teams; they are showtng a great deal of class sprt." The followng wll sbow wshetller or not these men have a rght n feelng as they do. At present, the Sophomore class tur'llout s: 35 men for Football, wth an average weght of about 180 pounds; Tug-of-War, 40 men, average weght, 185; Crew, 9 men., average weght, 1;50; and Relay, 20 enl. Thle freshm-en class turn-out s as follows: Football, 38 men, average Freght, 165; Tug-of-War, 16 men, average weght, 150; Crews, 56 men, both lghts andl hea-ves, and Relay, 29 men. Freshrmen a-re at ths tme to be nformed that more managers and many more men for Tug-of-War are needed badly. Although the Glove fght s gven only one pont, to the -wnner of t goes a moral vctory, because the pohole class engages n ths fght, whereas only a lsmall porton of t partcpates n the other events.

Nor s the change gradual. A whole class departs and another, wth only the scantest of tranng, steps nto ts boots. Ths means that a poorly Performng management can botch ts work for only a year when t s replaced bay a group of men who, we hope, are better. But n the strength of ths system les ts weakness. Just as dffcult to sustan as the crudtes of an nferor group, are the ambtous and capable efforts of an outstandng management. The reason for the above reflectons s the frst ssue of ths term'sdormz Rumor whch sets some form of record for puerle and vtuperatve lter ature. nstead of those lttle tems whch "razzed" well-known characters n the dormtores n a rough but good humored manner thtereappear expressons whch alre metrely vcous. Good humor s often broad and earthy but ever offensve. Here s an example of the phraseology used lby tle edtor to nstll sprt nto the two low~er class. " the present feelngs a1mong u~pperclassmen seems to be that both the frosh and Sophs are a bunch of punks, pker so ors what have you?" All of Chclh s <apparently calculated to put <a loyal feelng nto every lowereclassnlan ll the doramtoraes.

THE COST OF LVNG COLLEGTES EXPEN SES 01Z sevelcal y~ears students at the nsttute r Slave been l ltated b~y a tuton fee WN,-.Ch seemhed fa1' n excess of the sum demalded by the aver age educatonal nsttuton. Thls rrtcaton weas n most cases rather trarnsellt because of the very f utlty of gvn- t much thought. H-ad the students n queston stopped to recason, they should have foun~d that ther exp~enses durng ther years a-wt lle nsttute dd -not exceed by muchl the expenses of the average student at othler repr esentat'eve Amel can colleg-es. Tlle general term "expenses" s used because of t-her nature. -n some of the nsttutons of learnng n ths coulntry, a certan part f not the whlole of the student body s requred to lsle n the dormtores mantaned by the school. Wth ths requrement, the expenses of the averca-e student approach nearer to the amount pad by hm to the school than they do at the nsttute. Snce ths amount s varable, a student of that school would be n a worse poston should that school have to enlarge ts ncome, than a student at the nsttute under the same condtons, for the latter has more choce as to hs manner of lvng. OUT OF CHAOS AN ARMED PROPHET Ts hard to realze that no longer are we aponeer country expandng n a raw, crude land, but an ancent naton wth one of the oldest governments n the world, and wth hoary poltcal tradtons that have been handed down for Generaton after Generaton n marked contrast to the shftng poltcal Phlosophes of what we quantly call the Old World. But whether or not our poltcal dogmas reman stable, economc condtons change as fast or faster n the Unted States than n Europe. For that reason our deas as to man's relatons to socety are often sadly out of jont by a-few score years. Man s stll man, but he seems to be changng hs functon from that of an ndependent unt, a rugged ndvdual f you please, to that of a cell n a new organsm; one of hs own creaton, the ndustral state. And the proof of ths statement s that, n contrast to the only rugged ndvdual, the frontersman, he can exsts only as part of the state and on no other terms. Consder the engneers. Manly through means created by hm, through functons performed by hm, but motvated by forces whch he does not control, the dvson of labor has reached such a ptch n the countres most removed from barbarsm that natu~re's dea of a completely ndependent man, suffcent unto hmself, has been destroyed. f the engneer were accused of socal ;rresponsblty to the group of men, machnes, sklls and nsttutons whch alone are capable of contnued beng wthout breakdown, he would be taken aback. Hs basc phlosophy has been to obey orders, to carly out wth utmost effcency the projects deemed desrable byv those n control of the economc system. f he s told to buld a ralroad n Costa Rca, hs sole purpose s to create the best possble system wth the materals avalable. Thle socal effects of tle ralorad or power plant or machne are outsde ls consderaton. s hle r-ht? s hs atttude the only one possble under exstng crcumstances? An answer s perhaps presumptuous ll vew of the tremendous obscurty and mportance of thle prob~lem, bout steppng boldly ll where -angels would no doubt bog down, we say that there s no good reason why the engneer should -not extend hs felds to nclude statesmanshzp and socology. Hs present tranng would do hm no good except as a background, b~ut hs methods of attack should chew away at ths queston as they havte at many another knotty problem. ThRe ssue can be evaded by sayng that the engneer does hss duty n response to an exstng economc order, that to change hs dutes would be to change the system. Perhaps. But mperatve need demands that there arse some mnan who s an engneer, that he may understand ndustry, a statesmaln that he may undel stand man; and a prophet that he may lead us out of chaos. R~ememboer what Machlavell sad: "All armed prophets have conquered, and the unarmed ones hav~e been destroyed." encneer s at least armed. NOW AND THEN The en-.\ceolo Machavell, , dplomat, hstoran, statesman. "Nothng s snore dffcult to take n hand, more perlous to conductor more uncertan n ts success, than to take the lead n the ntroducton of a new order of thngs, because the nnovator has for hs enemes all those who have done well under the old condtons, and lhkewarrn defenders n- th-ose who may do well under the new."

From our vewpont wte beleve that the frosh have put t all over ther rvals up to the present tme. Dormtory freshmen n partcular have banded together very strongly. However, wev can't salute the yearlngs n too many sweet words, for they too, are charged wth lack of support of some of ther Feld Day teams. We have especal reference to the tug-of-war crew, whch s sadly undermanned at the present moment. W~hat do you say, frosh, are you gong to let your commendable sprt go unrewarded by not supportng your teams to your fullest extent? -,. * * :g :j: 8 *R * Meanwhle what does the Sophomore sde of the ledger say? Frst and foremost s the rumor that the Sophs are antcpatng havng to use a four-oared shell n the pull dowvn the Charles Rver on the mornng of October 26th. The reason for ths expectaton -s the fact that the usual turnout for a Sophomore crew workout these days conssts of fron sx to eght oarsmen and a coxswan. Other teams are beng supported farly well, but not suffcently well to warrant a wnnng score two weeks from Frday. Added to ths s the deplorable lack of sprt among a large percentage of the second-year men. The slogan coned two years ago wth reference to the then freshman class n connecton wth an entrely dfferet matter mght well be appled to the Class of 1937, namely: "A&re you men or panses? " ther noney. n fact last year the pa8nm N~~~~owlER:9. should report to the Coop Feld at fve o'clock ths afternoon or tomorrow.

So much for the annual bra-wl; nowe to turn to a subject whch s not strctly sports but nevertheless s very closely connected wth them.

None of the freshmen wcho have come out for ths year have sgned up wth the sports department. To anyone nterested n athletcs we can thnk of no mnore enjoyable actvty, outsde of the sports themselves, than that of reportng the games and meets.

FRESHMEN BETTER SAYS AL DUNNNG Predcts Vctory for Freshmen Over Sophomore Boa ts on Feld Day For the frst tme n fve years, a vrcory for the freshmen feld day crew seems assured. Al Dunnng s very enthusastc about the prospects of the frosh, for they have sx full crews out practcng every mornng. They are showng some real sprt and unless the second year men get gong, there wll be no doubt about the wnner on feld day. The materal for these crews s excellent on both the heavy and lglltweght squads, and the men are respondng wonderfully to the ntensve tranng and. nstructons beng gven them by both coaches. Thle hleavyweght crews are by no mneans havng thngs all ther owvn way, for the lglltweghts are gvng them a real run for lghtweghts won out n the tme trals and consequently rowed on feld day. t s qute possble for the lttle fellows to repeat ths year. n any case, the crew that wll represent the freshmen ths year wll be a real frst class outft.

Estes, mathematcs nstructor for the last two years, has left Technology to become an assstant professor at the State College of Agrculture and Engneerng of the Unversty of North Carolna. Mr. Estes, who was born n Texas, graduated from hgh school whle workng n the summer on an ce wagon, and dong numerous odd jobs around home and school, n true "Frank Merrwell" style. He then attended Texas Chrstan Unversty, where he was the frst letter man n athletcs to become valedctoran of hs class. Stars at Football Mr. Estes won two letters n football, mssng a thrd because of a foot nfecton. n hs junor year he was wdely selected as an All-Conference guard. He also starred at basketball, and played on an ntramural team that won the school champonshp four tmes n successon. When he graduated, Mr. Estes became an nstructor at T. C. U., and was later a part-tme nstructor at the Unversty of llnos, whle workng for hs master's degree, whch he receved n June, Wth a frend of hs, Mr. Estes then went to Chcago, "determned," as he sad, "to make a go of t n the bg cty." The two got jobs wth the Yellow Cab Company, and had many nterestng experences as taxcab drvers. Mr. Estes then returned to T. C. U. as an assstant Professor. Whle at the Unversty of llnos he had practced boxng. n 1927 he entered a tournament n Fort Wayne under an assumed name, n order to avod publcty. By the tme hs dentty was dscovered, he was well on hs way to the fnals n the heavyweght dvson. The fnal bout ended n a draw, and an extra round was also even. Mr. Estes' apponent s now one of the leadng professonal heavyweghts n the southwest. Mr. Estes had many offers to turn professonal, but turned them down. Whle a councllor at a Colorado summer camp n 1930, he dd a great deal of mountan clmbng, ncludng three peaks over 13,000 feet hgh, one of them over 14,000. He had prevously clmbed Pkes Peak, and so arduous was the ascent that four of the sx n the party passed out.

She stopped abruptly and faced us resentfully. "What? Et tu, Brute! Well, not to get a man at any rate," she flung back at us and was gone before we could satsfy ourselves. "Well, don't blame her," remarked another young lady who seemed to thnk that upperclassmen ought to be put n ther places wthout further adeu. "That sounds justjke a formula to me now. Every one of those holy males does condescend to ask us that n ether a very sceptcal or subtly nsnuatng tone, "she declared wth some heat. The next person who asked me that 'll " "Wat a mnute," we ntervened, somewhat abashed and very subdued, "all we wanted was to tell them once and for all." Every one admtted that once n a whle upperclassmen do get brght deas. So gentlemen, here you are: t seems that our archtects, Barbara Eaton, of 205 Beacon St., Watham, Mass., and Ann Person of El 'asco, Texas., both came to the decson that Tech was the fnest school of ts knd n the country. We were under the mpresson that a very dfferent superlatve would be n order but we tactfully overlooked the fact." "But aren't you a bt lonesome so far from home?" we asked charmng Left to rght: Anne Schwk, Pearl Rubensten, Ann Person, Jeanette Pollack, Barbara Eaton, Jeanne Ktenplom. - lttle Ann. "Oh," she repled qute natvely, "'m thnkng of havng Daddy and Mother come and lve wth me n Boston," Edtoral "we" decdely nonplussde! "But aren't you a bt lonesome so lar from home?" we asked charmng lttle Ann. "Oh," she repled qute navely, "'m thnkng of havng Daddy and Mother come and lve lwth me n Boston." Edtoral "we" decdedly nonplussed! "But from El Paso, Texas!" we fnally stuttered. " don't mnd beng so far from home," was the reply. "Besdes t wouldn't make any dfference to Daddy, because although we went to Texas from Calforna, we came orgnally from Boston. was seven years old when we left Boston, but 'm afrad 'm not a very loyal ctzen because don't lke Boston very well." Later, however, we managed to get her to admt that perhaps t was because she was a lttle lonesome. A lght began to dawn on our befuddled brans, another only chld sure enough! n fact there are qute a number of freshmen coeds that can be classed n that category. "And now that you are here, do you thnk you lke the nsttute?" "We most certanly do!" chorused the freshmen. Evdently t was unanl mous.. " Wutwhy?" came the queston. Had we sounded as enthusastc as that n those dear, dead days? "Well for one thng, we hav e so much freedom compared to that of hgh school days. Why n one of 'our classes the boys actually brng ther rados wth them," sad Barbara. "That's all very well, but not suffcent reason for comng to the nsttute." "Well, suppose we came for the same reason that the boys do-to learn somethng" suggested Pearl Ruben-sten, the practcal lady of the group. We begged to express our doubts as to the valdty of that reason as far as the boys were concerned. n talkng to Pearl, one wonders f she hasn't made a mstake and that she s really "Deb" Rubensten. (Mrs. Dauber to you.) Ths s the bane of Pearl's exstence. "No ddn't come here because Debbe dd," asserted Pearl. "'m not takng the same course. 'm gong to be a physcst, f (doesn't that sound famlar?- can make the grade. "'m so tred of beng told 'should. be clever because 'm Debbe's sster. heard that- all through Latn School, and so now hope can be Pearl Rubensten and not just somebody's sster." Pearl, by the way comes from 4 Denson St., Roxbury. "And ddn't come here because Pearl dd," averred Ann Schwek even- more emphatcally. "Although we lve only' a few streets from each other, and we both have planned to come here all through Latn School, we made our decsons qute ndependently." Chemstry seems to be the most popular feld for coeds because Pearl s the only one of the freshmen, besde the archtects, who s venturng nto another course. Jeanette Pollack, 1447 Blue Hll Ave., Dorchester, a graduate of Roxbury Memoral; Anne 'Schwek, 10 Homestead St., Roxbury, a graduate of Latn School; Ruth Raftery, 819 Broadway, South Boston, a graduate of Brghton Hgh, and Jeanne Ktenplon, 426 Marlborough St., Boston, are regstered n Courses V and X. Everyone of the grls except Jeanne came to the nsttute because of her nterest n Scence and her desre to make t her lfe's work. Qute the most novel and startlng pece of nformaton we gleaned was the fact that there was actually one coed at the nsttute who s here out of no choce of her own. That young lady s Jeanne 'Ktenplon from Aurora, llnos. Tech was of her father's choosng, but now that she s here, Jean thnks Tech the only place to attend. For one year, Jeanne attended Stephen Junor College. When asked how she lked t, she sad: "t was rand fun for awhle, but one got so tred of seeng the same faces twelve hours a day for seven days a week for sx weeks that at the end of that tme t took great control to keep from throwng thngs. - We had so lttle frebed'lom. f we were very, very good we could. stay at a dance untl twelve on Saturd&l nghts, but n any case a were never allowed to go ll ourl cort's car.

For ths a good antdote s an honors system, whch Amherst has. f the plan were more generally followed, by junors especally, the antdote mght become an anttoxn. Addressng the ncomng class at Harvard ths fall, Presd'ent Conant declared: "We hope that each one of you wll fnd somethng that you may study wth enthusasm." Extenson of honors work s possble only f students are ntellectually curous. The selecton of such men s a dffcult task, for admsson requrements may be fulflled n the same manner by whch one may obtan an almost meanngless degree. t appears that the alternatve s to ntervew applcants personally, whch Amherst does n many cases. The Secretary of the Faculty, n charge of admssons, last year saw "from a half to two-thrds" of the freshmen who were matrculated; more passed under the eyes of other members of the admnstraton and alumn. The fnal decson, however, rested on the preparatory or hgh school record. Undoubtedly then, the Carnege report's crtcsm of the exstng method of choosng students apples n a smlar way, f to a lesser extent, to Amherst. The survey substantates the suggeston that the College consder for admsson all freshmen who present the necessary number of unts, pckng from ths group men who are found n ntervews to possess the addtonal qualfcatons whch are characterstc of students who pursue honors work. To be sure, the survey on whch these arguments are founded has shortcomngs. t omts evaluatons of abstract qualtes, whch are beyond the scope of exact calculaton.

More than 100 man hours are requred to produce each ssue. n a newspaper the newsgatherng appears on the surface to be the essental part of the work, but t s n realty only one of many problems. The varous busness departments make t fnancally possble for the newsmen to do ther part, and the edtoral and features dvsons help make the paper more than a mere news bulletn. Newsgatherng, however, probably requres greater alertness than any other student actvty. Some news s foreseen and may be carefully prepared for n advance, but a large part of t "just happens."

Each reporter and news wrter s gven a permanent assgnment and also a lst of assgnments for each ssue just as s done on any large daly. These assgnments take care of the work of the actvtes and most of the happenngs around the nsttute. The unforeseen events are the true tests of a reporter's ablty. A chance remark often leads to an mportant story. Much news s ganed through members of the Faculty and from the admnstraton offces. All materal collected by the news and sports men s wrtten up on the day precedng the publcaton of the ssue. Often there seems to be nothng wth whch to fll the paper a few hours before gong to press, but as each of the assgnments s covered the requred copy comes n.

About sx o'clock the frst of the copy s sent to the prnters where t s set up on lnotype mac'nnes. s prnted at a commercal establshment so that the undergraduates get an excellent nsght nto the prntng busness. The novelty of the surroundngs and the number of ntrcate machnes and presses gve an added nterest to the work. The nght edtor s usually asssted by two men, a member of the junor board and a news canddate. These men read the proofs of the galleys as fast as they come from the machnes, rewrte stores or wrte heads and stores that are late n comng.
