This group ivill in- clude the members of the cast of Tech Show 192S, who are to gi-ve two Performances for the students at Smith College, and otheis who have friends at that institution, and have arranged to make the tiip with the cast. Arriving at Northampton at 12:40 the cast will just have time to go to the Hotel Draper, where it will stay Saturday night and prepare for the afternoon performance. As has been the custom for several years past there will be a Matinee and an eve- ning performance of this year's musi- cal success. This yc-ar se-veral gi Als at Smith Colege have taken charge of the advance ticket sales and the in- dications are that the "Standin- Room (Ali],,," sign will be out before e cur- tain rises Aluell has been said in favor of this year's production in and ai-ound North- 1 ampton, and one of the Inns in that city has requested the orchos1ra, to play for its dinner dancing- hetween I the Performances. This will be im- possible however, as it .iould not al- low the members of the orchestra suf- ficient time to dress for there, eve- ninl- appearance. Although the advance sales for the Boston Performances have been quite -rl-e there are still a few seats left for the Prom Nil-ght. shovving, and tickets may be had for the Thursday and Saturday productions. If the en- thusiasm with which the show has been received by those who saw it in New York and in Hartford may be taken as a measure of its character, it is by far the best production which has been put out in recent years and after the first showing seats.§houId be..

In- teresting work during the day, super- vised by a corps of competent instruc- tors, with time after hours for swim- min-- and other sports, go to provide a Iwig-to-be-remernbered summer. These were the main points of a talk by George T. Logan '29, before aii informal gathering of the Sophomores in Course I who are planning to go to the surveying camp on Lake Machias this summer. He said that the surn- iner camp is the high spot of the course in civil engineerhig: "The rest of the years, are more or iess a grind, but that stimmer combines work -%with play in an ideal, mauner to make a great vacation." (Iordon R. Williams '29 gave the-, group some idea of what a paxt the Benr,7i Mark played in the life at camp. Thh, magazine is the annual publica.- tion of the group, and (contains pic- tures and stories of carnp life, together, with contributions by the faculty an(] -tudeiits. There is also published a tri-weekly Survey containing iiewspa- per of the camp. and says NVilliams, "There was a weekly sheet, called Tire Tarnhig Pohit. which published all the dirt, I)tit this niiiiiature Fi7ter Papej- ,got a little too ba(l fill was sup- pressed." Canip (lances. canoe, trips. week- end drives to Canada, aiid other pos- sibilities for recreatioii were spoken ofl by Robert R. Philippe '29. "Tlie trip tip in a privdte Pullman car starts the big time. That is a get-together after the students have been away for live the summer-, and the iii ]it is speia i .. I many ways besides sleeping.

Pescribe Experiences

Plenty of girls, leisure time for fun,and jolly weekends make Camp Tech-nology anything but a dead place. In-teresting work during the day, super-vised by a corps of competent instruc-tors, with time after hours for swim-min-- and other sports, go to provide aIwig-to-be-remernbered summer.

These were the main points of atalk by George T. Logan '29, before aiiinformal gathering of the Sophomoresin Course I who are planning to go tothe surveying camp on Lake Machiasthis summer. He said that the surn-iner camp is the high spot of thecourse in civil engineerhig: "The restof the years, are more or iess a grind,but that stimmer combines work -%withplay in an ideal, mauner to make agreat vacation."

(Iordon R. Williams '29 gave the-,group some idea of what a paxt theBenr,7i Mark played in the life at camp.Thh, magazine is the annual publica.-tion of the group, and (contains pic-tures and stories of carnp life, together,with contributions by the faculty an(]-tudeiits. There is also published atri-weekly Survey containing iiewspa-per of the camp. and says NVilliams,"There was a weekly sheet, called TireTarnhig Pohit. which published all thedirt, I)tit this niiiiiature Fi7ter Papej-,got a little too ba(l fill was sup-pressed."

Canip (lances. canoe, trips. week-end drives to Canada, aiid other pos-sibilities for recreatioii were spoken oflby Robert R. Philippe '29. "Tlie triptip in a privdte Pullman car starts thebig time. That is a get-together afterthe students have been away for livethe summer-, and the iii ]it is speia i .. Imany ways besides sleeping. Fromthen on, the summers goes by rapidly,and mic, i-eally hates to see it slid.,,

Seldom do wve find a play thatmoves as rapidly as "Chicago" at thePlymouth Theatre. It starts off waitha bang both literally and metaphor-ically in the first scene of about twominutes'' duration. From then onthere is not a single dull moment.It is a play written for the stagerather than for reading for it makesuse to advantage of every art knownto stagecraf t.

It is the story of a woman murder-ess in Chicago, the place that hasnevrer hung a woman yet. From themoment of the crimne to the final de-cision of the jury, the play is an ex-cellent satire of American justice byjury and of American susceptibilityto the publicity of the more yellownewspapers. if wve were not well ac-quainted with the facts of-recent mur-der cases, the whole plot would seemextremely imaginative but in the lightof recent events it contains all toomuch truth.

Francine Larrimore as Roxie Hartthe beautiful murderess, carries offthe stellar role admirably. She makesus wonder bow we would have votedif we had been on that jury. Her abil-ity to play the Tole of the toughyoung lady posing as the sweet young

lthing is undoubted. She is well sup-ported by Jack Roseleigh as her law-yer who specializes in the defense ofwomen criminals.

Those who liked "Broadway" willprobably find "Chicago- even moreto their taste. It is a well acted andamusing comedy that. will be appre-ciated by wverybody except perhapsmaiden aunts.

TECHNOLOGY activities are well on their way to a painful'Tdemise. This is the alarming situation which faces the

staffs of p~ublications, and officers in charge of clubs and organ-;zations. They have been headed towards downfall for along time-in fact ev~er since the slump which followed theirexpansion after the war. However, their condition now is socritical as to wararallt drastic action by the students who sup-port them if they are to continue.!

This is particularly true of the coming Junior Prom. Do themnen here arrange their affairs so that they can attend THEsocial event of the year? They do not! The Chairman of theProm Committee says, "It's not worth while for the membersof the class to put forth all the effort they do to make the Promna success, and then have -no support from the rest of the stu-dent body." Of course it is an expensive affair. But it comesonly once a year, and after all the twelve dollars is no morethan is spent on any big date.|

The sulpreme indifference to extra-curricuar activities by thestudents is inot limited to the Prom. Not a great number of'men sign up for TECHNIQUE, but to make matters even worse,150 copies of the yearbook are still unredeemned. Tech Show!has to cope with a decided lack of inter est. The Musical ClubsIare generally hard set through lack of support.|

The obvious remedy is morse action by everyone. Get behind the activities- they're yours, their success reflects directly oilthe Institute, and responsibility for the failure of activities isright oll yorol shoulders. This failure is not at all remote. TheShows has been soliciting aid from Alumni fors several years tomake up a deficit; this can't go on. If Prom does no' go overtthis year, it is almost a certainty that ther e will be placed be- fore the Institulte Committee a recommendation that 4she JuniortProm be dr opped.

Another plan might bie wtorth considieratioll. Prom might |her eafter be griven some other waeek-end, and the Musical Clubs,Concer-1 and Tech Show presented at different times. This|would leave Junior Week as merely a vacation, which seems:to be what it amounts to anly-way. Bult at present, support the,,student activrities- ! If you don't like them, say so-a.nd make itplains If yours is the general opinion, next year may see the,|Institute as clothing but a day-school a. "brosvn bagger's",palradmise.

HUMANICS COURSEOFFERED NEXT TERM

Will Train Third and FourthYear Men

(Continued from Page 1)questions and has lectured on thesesubjects at many colleges.

Under the plans for the new course,students in their third and fourthyears will be given comprehensivetraining to aid them in starting theirprofessional careers with more thanthe usual understanding of what isexpected of them in their work anddaily associations.

Mr. Nickerson has long felt, it was.said, that the average student goes outinto the world ill-prepared to meet thedifficult problems having to do withthe human equation and with person-alities inevitably associated with him.The new course is designed to helpthe young professional man to avoidmany of the costly mistakes which oc-cur in human relations in business andindustry.

Mr. Nickerson feels that success de-pends to a great extent upon a properunderstanding of certain fundamentalfacts which will enable the individualto recognize his own shortcomings andto adopt the proper attitude towardthe complex personalities of his asso-ciates.

The wisdom to apply knowledge,honesty and loyalty, tact and courage,patience, and the ability to makedecisions without prejudice, he said inoutlining the possibilities of the newcourse, are among the qualities thatmake for success.

Ask For Another DormMan on Institute Body

"That an additional represen-tative-at-large from the Dormi-tories be elected to the InstituteCommittee beginning next year,"was the motion which was madeand seconded at the meeting ofthe student governing body yes-terday. Since this required arevision of the constitution, themotion had to be tabled for twoweeks so that the matter couldbe given due consideration.

This action is being takenas a result of the opening of thenew units, and the consequentincrease of the numbers of thedormitory men to about 450. Assuch they will be one of thelargest organized bodies inschool, but under the presentsystem would have only one of-ficial representative on the In-stitute Committee.

Boston, Mass.,April 21, 1927

Larus & Bro. Co.,Richmond, Va.Gentlemen:

This morning I had a smoking ad-venture worth recording.

Next to me in the smoking car agentleman was puffing his pipe con- ·tentedly. I was not smoking at themoment, and the aroma of his tobaccointrigued me exceedingly. For twelveyears I had smoked Edgeworth with-out being tempted by any other brand,but the fragrance emanating from thepipe of the gentleman beside me was,so agreeable that I could not resistthe temptation to speak of it.

"That is wonderfully fragrant tO-bacco you have there," I remarked."Would you mind telling me the nameof it?"

"It is Edgeworth," he answered.We then congratulated each other

upon our mutual good taste, and Idecided that I would continue to usehis brand and mine.

Sincerely yours,S. H.

NOT MAGNOLIA

NOT MAGNOLIA, by Edith EverettTaylor. New York. E. P. Duttonand Company. $2.00.Leigh was young. Just out of her

teens in fact. But in wisdom she hadalready passed her majority. That is,her mind and heart had told her thatshe had loved and lost. And withher ideal shattered, Leigh turned tothe lighter ways of life. But fate

.would not have it so, for her wander-ings in the warmth of the southernatmosphere led the young blase dam-sel once more slowly, and calmly intothe strangling tentacles of love.

The plot, though, is relegated to a!'minor part in this novel of southern

charm. Character sketching seems tobe the purpose. Miss Taylor, wethink, tries in this, her first sustainedliterary effort, a difficult task in choos-in clharacter portrayal to displayher talents. The result is a fifthrate novel of the seventy-five centtype. The profound insight, the fin-esse and subtlety, the delicate balanceare only slightly noticeable. The viewof life is shallow and appears arti-ficial. The youth, potrayed, is not theyouth we know. Miss Taylor, nodoubt, needs a bit more schooling.
