\Vell Qualified Mr. Simpson is well qualified

to discuss the construction field , as he has been associated with it since he received his BS from the University of Illinois in 1911. He has a lso been presi· dent of the LA chapter of the Associated General Contractors.

ical drawing instructor at the Compare Views Institute, 'The show tomorrow night is the world premiere.

No less than .14 Caltech de­baters wil l trek to UCLA Satur­day to compete in the invitation· a l speech tou l'nament being held there, Coach McCrery reports.

The Glee Club expects a full house for the presentation, and advises that you get the re early to obtain a seat!

Sati l'i~tI Themc The unique plot of the oper­

etta will appeal perfectly to the average Cal tech student's sen se of humor, s ince the theme of scie nce underlies the story. The action concerns the love life of a s upers titious ja nitor a nd a fe· male calculus ins tructor, and takes place in a physics building s imila r to the NOl'man Bridge Laboratories. The basement of this hy pothet ical edi fice is, how­ever, infested with spooks. Camp­bell makes good use of his plot to satirize the physics depart­ment as a whole.

Last Friday morning the st u· dent·body had the pleasure of hearing a discussion on atomic energy and its control by two of our divis10n ch airmen, Dr. Hallett 0, Smith, c hairman of the Division of Humanities, and Dr. Robert F. Bacher, chairman of the Divis ion of Physics, Math­ema tics and Astronomy.

Smith Fh'St Dr. Smith, who was the first

to s pea k, was introduced by Dean Strong. His theme cen­tered a round the basic question of "Whether We Can Achieve Economic Securi ty Without Los· ing Out' Freedom," Dr. Smith said that most of the fighting

Dio;cussion Topics The discussion will cover what

types of engineers and scientists are involved in t he construction field , what are the opportunities, a nd how a man can get started in construction. The lecture will then conclude with what type of work is available a nd what train­ing and personal characteris tics are best suited for the construc· tlon fie ld,

while 2 was in the powder room and Preston was looking the other way, Riley Holly invited a friend from the outside world, and, in order to ma ke the eve· ning pleasa nt, even got him a blind dale. The visiting lad was so invigorated by the continen· tal atmosphere that he immedi· ately feU into a sound sleep on Howard Clark's sack. At the end of the evening, when Riley felt moved to re turn the girls to their respective domiciles, the three were unable to awaken the somnolescent fourth, and his date bid him adieu in the in t i· mate phrasing, "Good Night­"whatever your name was."

HaJTY Ellis reaffirmed his bril­liant superiority as a ballroom dancer by dumping Win Soule's date rather ungracefully on her derriere. Such suavite!

Ricketts' newest acquisition, Nick Nicholson, introduced a new approach to the old game of getting a date, He steamed into the bookstore, picked out a girl (whose name we cannot mention), got her attention, and put it on the line thus: "1 came down here for one purpose-I 'd like to have you go to the Apache Dance with me." She thought for a moment and re­plied, "Swell, what's you r name?" Such savoil' faire!
