Nowthe Lounger has always been taught fromnhis earliest days at the Institute that ac-tivities were to be sought after. He hashad drilled into him the idea that a mtancould get as much out of his Outsidework as he could from his course hereat the Stute. We hate to disagree withso learned a man as the Dean of Prince-ton, but when he says that "athletic,dramatic and literary interests" are det-rimiental to success at college, we mustsay a word or so. 'How about the usualarguments: the friends one makes in ac-tivities, the experience to le gained there-in, and the numerous other things that

How Students 17aBoston Colleges

Are Supervised

(Conltilnuc(l froin a previous issue)

Sloth Harvard and Techiiology haveHygiene Departments looking out forthe Dhi sical wvelfare of the students.NCev students are given careful phy-sical examinations, and freshmen arerequired to take physical trainingr suit-able for their needs under the direc-tion of a competent physical director,students being encouraged to take thiscxercise in the formn of out-of-doorsports, with special exercises requiredfor men with phvsical defects.

At Technology, the Hygiene Depart-nient is in charge of Dr. G. W. Morse,head of the Brooks Hospital in Brook-line, who has several other doctors onhis staff. The incoming student isexamined by Dr. Morse with greaterthoroughness than is done for lifeinsurance. In addition to the examina-tion of newr students, tile Hygiene De-partmnent gives several lectures tofreshlmen, special stress being givento instructing the students how to live,howr to eat, and how to preserve theirlealth. It also gives free cxamitlationsantl nredical advice to all students andniemlers of the instructing staff whomna- rish it.

POLITICS

RECENT LY ill this columnn Aas quoted a plea from Herbert

HRI-loover for a more active participation of the engineering

profession in public affairs. The approaching national elections

give at this timlc an opportunityr for the students here at the In-

stitute to show their inter-est in the body politic. The mediums for

this participation are the various political clubs which serve to give

a semblance of organization. Unfortunately because of hypocritical

self-centeredness there has been an ignoring of these clubs, and

for the sake of preventing a deplorable irresponsibility regarding

national affairs some active movement should be started by maen

wrho do feel a responsibility.A Tech student some years beyond his majority was heard to

boast that he had never voted. It is useless to comment on this

type of Americanism lout the knowvledge that it exists makes itsnore imnperative for the men wvho think and are sensible of theirpart in the voting statc to stire tip amnong the nonchalant and easy-going students an interest in the political drama that is takingplace.

It is frequently and truthfully said that the man who troubleshimself least about political affairs is the man that is the chronicpolitical grumbler. It is this type of man waho is the parasite of thedemocratic state; he sueps his sustellance of citizenship without giv-itlg atnytlling ill return, and then complains that he does not re-ceive a king's fare. This is the type of man -we submit for the edi-fication of the anarchist.

It is not a particular political affiliation that is needed; thereare sufficient clubs to stlite the tastes of all. The imperative needis for an active, vigorous interest in the political affairs of the

SPORT PAGES

To Golf, Tennis, Yachting, Football, Squash,Baseball, and all College Sports, the Trans-

cript devotes a page a day excepting Friday,

when the Sports Review is a two-page feature.

These Sporting Pages afford a variety of sub-

jedt-matter and a thoroughness of treatment

which leave nothing to be desired, and are unl-

equaled by any paper in New England.

STREET CAR SERVICE

THE almost uncanny irregularity of the street car service onT~assachusetts Avenue has long been an absorbing topic for

those unfortunates wcho have to make use of it daily going to and

from the Institute. The Harvard-Dudley line has perhaps the heav-

iest traffic of any of the lines of the Boston Elevated. It is also

the most poorly and inefficiently conducted.It has been suggested that perhaps the Elevated could save

money by running three and four-car trains once every half or

three quarters of an hour. The practical effect of the Company's

rservice" amounts to this anyhow, as three or four cars will go by

in half as many ininutes, followed by a long interval until the nextbatch.

The excuse for such procedure is hardly evident. Except in

times of special stress there can be no legitimate reason for suchirreg-ularity in service. Certain it is that a real hardship is worked

on the students at the Institute and others that have cause to usethe street cars.

We are still Wondering about the great court. Mr. Eastman

objected to the presence of ci-arette butts in the corridors. Howwould he feel if he should note thie present desolated aspect of the

It sums up like this:First-the very best Burley tobacco that

Next Year, what ?&41 OMMENCEMENT days are not far off. They will be here sooner than you realize.

What's ahead of you ? Will you spend next year as an apprentice in business, or willyou use it to fit yourself for leadership. In a few years some of your class will be

influential leaders occupying positions of great responsibility; others will be placed inminor roles-living from hand to mouth. Thus far you have made a splendid investmentof your time. What will you do now? Have you chosen business for your life work? Ifso, and if you seek leadership in the commercial world, here are facts worthy of yourdeepest consideration.deepes considducted for the purpose of training

The principles of leadership in busi- young men who are to occupy posi-ness are not many in number. They are tions of responsibility and trust.not hard to grasp. Yet less than twomnen in a hundred ever learn them. This Laboratory Method

The two chief reasons for this fail- Since it is the purpose of Babsonln-ure are: (1) -lack of an all-'round s~titute to train men for business, allbusiness experience. (2) -the diffi- -work and all study is conducted in theculty of drawing sound conclusions same manner as work is conducted irefrom the relatively few experiences any regularly established businessthat any one person can have. house. For instance, there are regu-

lar office hours not merely school hours.Lessons and reports are dictated by thestudent as in an office-not written.Thus the student acquires a masteryof business English and the ability totransform quickly his thoughts into de-finite form.

Teaching in ConferenceClasses are conducted on the confer-

ence plan. The teachers, or directorsas they are more properly called, areexperienced business men, successfulin their own line. Factory inspectiontrips are not merely walks througha plant, but are personally conductedtrips by experts in that particular in-dustry. The problems discussed arepresent-day ones and are drawn fromactual experience. They are the sameproblems on which America's keenestexecutives are seeking the assistanceof the largest organization of busi-ness advisers in the world. Thestudent at Babson Institute works onactual cases-not hypothetical prob-lems-and consequently he developsthe business man's point of view.

Business ClinicsElse student at Babson Institute

learns to do the things he will be ex-pected to do in business by constantcontact with actual business procedure.He participates in the clinic instead ofsitting in a class. The training coversthe major divisions of business, Manu-facturing and Production, Financing,Distribution and Marketing, and Man-agement.

If you are anxious for achievement,if, by inheritance or initiative, youseem destined to become a leader inbusiness, send for particulars aboutthis training and its unusual teachingmethods.

A Study of LeadersThrough your studies thus far you

have created for yourself a substantialbackground-a foundation upon whichyou can build ligh. Why not use thisfoundation in the largest possible way?If you are truly ambitious for steadyand permanent progress, it wvill be wellfor you-in addition to your under-graduate work to consider the advisa-bility of special training to cut offyearsof apprentitceship in the business world.The training is available at BabsonInstitute-organized under the Edu-cational laws of Massachusetts, and notoperated for profit.

Every man who hopes to be a leaderin the business world needs specialtraining-a training that can be hadonly from actual experience. A studyof the successful business men oftoday shows they are those who have-(1)-a fundamental knowledge of busi-ness principles; (2)-a faculty for thepractical application of those princi-ples to daily business life.

These tried and proven principles,thisgift for application may now be yours.

The Business oflearning Business

The specialists of Babson Insti.tute have spent years in business re-search, laboratory work, and the studyof the lives of successful men. Theyhave arrived at the fundamentals whichevery one must have to achieve leader-ship in business. These vitally impor-tant facts have been put together inclear, understandable form and con-centrated into an intensive one-yeartraining course.

The freshman fencers lost their firstand only meet of the season Wednes-day when they were defeated by theHarvard first vear men bv the score of6-3. DeFazio proved to be the Engi-neer's leading scorer as he won bothhis bouts, while Davier was the otherBeaver winner.

TEAM HAS GOOD RECORD

The Varsity fencing team mce's theY ale swordlsmllen tomorrow night in

north hall Walker in what promises tob~e one of the hardest fought meets ofthe season.

It depends entirely upon this meetwhetler various mel of the team xvill

bec eligilble for competition in the In-tercollcgiates to le held sometime inApril at the Astor. If they obtain adecisive win there is also a very goodchance that thev will qualifv as a team,but as the Yale team is one of thestrongest that the Engineers have met,the fencers vill have to showimprovement over the Harvard meetin order to comle out the victors.

Will Have Same Line-upThe team will le made up the same

as for the last three meets with IJevis,Ferre and Hawthorne on the foils;Blake and Cole the epees, and CaptainSerrano with Hawthorne oll the sabers.Blake is in rather a ticklish positiondue to his double loss against Harvard.He imust winl both of his epee boutsagainst Yale or be disqualified for theITtcrcollegiates. Serrano is practicallysure of qualif- ing in the sabers andalso of one of the high places in thefinal tr outs. During the whole sea-son he hias lost only a single bout andthat to the best man on the Armyteam.

Yale Is Strong TeamThe foilmenl have developed some

speed although their fencing still leavesmucll to l)e desired in comparison totheir former work. If the Engineers1lope to defeat Yale they will have tostage a verv sudden and forceful come-back. The Beavers will prolalbly havea chance to use their complicated styleof fencing for the first time as Yalcis good enough to play up to certainkinds of -,xork which most of the othercolleges would not recognize.

Of the epec and saber men littleneed be said. In general they havebeen the real saviours of the teamrturning in their three or four pointseither to save the team from a swvamp-ing or to supply the necessarv extrascore for a will. Cole who Nvas onlyrecently added to the epees wras thereal sensation at the Harvard meetwhen he started out his career witha double win. If he vill onlv do aswell with Yale it will at least give therest of the teani some much neededmoral encouragement.
