Varsity TankmentTo Face Bowdoin

In Meet Tonight,Team Has Strength and Power

To Repeat Victory ofLast Season

IAfter a long period of intensive!training, before and since vacation,the Technology Varsity swimmingteam is prepared to repeat the vic-tory of last year over the Bowdoinsquad. The meet is scheduled to be-1gin at 8 o'clock in the tank of the

lUniversity Club. The Engineers havehad a fair test of their strength in

.the interclass meet that was heldshortly before the Christmas holidays.Bowdoin is an annual rival of Tech-

. ology, and has alw ays had teams ofconsiderable strength.

Should Be FastCoach Dean has put his men through

the final workout before the contestand hopes to see some fast timesntade tonight. BowNdoin is every bitas strong as last year, and is out tomake amends for the 51-20 defeatwhich they suffered at the hands ofthe Engineers last season.

Tickets may be secured at any timeat the desk of the University Club andat the Stuart Street entrance. Spec-tators at the meet are requested touse this entrance.

Engineers have long beenable to design pipe lines which were[mechanically adequate when first in-stalled to withstand the stresses set[up by expansion, shifting of the foulld-ation, or any of the other ordinarystresses. It has always been necessat-ry, however, to introduce a factor in.selecting the thickness of pipe to al-low for corrosion.

The result has been thatmany disatrous fires have resultedfrom cast-iron valves and fittings al-lowing gas to escape and pocket in thebasement of buildings, for althoughthe pipe was sufficiently strong wheninstalled, the corrosion due to waterhas so eaten into the metal as to makeit porous.

LIGHT-WEIGHTS STRONG

Varsity and Freshmen Will GoTo New Havren for Meet

With Yale Team

Technology scored its first wrestlingvictory of the season Wednesday eve-ning against the Crimson grapplers inthe Hemenway Gymnasium 20 to 15.The Engineers scored practically allof their victories in the lighter classes,and as a whole were in better conl-dition than their opponents. Thefreshmen lost by the large score of 33to 5 in the preliminaries.

Axford, 115-pounder, was the firstman onl the mat for Technology andscored a fall over his opponent after8 minutes and 26 seconds of wrestling.Although Chase was a more exper-ienced wrestler, Axford wore llis m~aldown, and threw him with a half-Nel-son and body hold.

Perkins and Negus WinPerkins wrestled a close match in

the 125-pound class, but the Engineerseemed to be in better condition, andturned his opponent over in the lastfew seconds with an arm and bodylock, for the second Techllology vic-tory. Negus, in the 135-pound class,scored another victory for the teamwhen he threw Minis of Harvard witha half-Nelson and body hold. Negushas shown considerable improvementas a grappler since practice startedthis fall, and now looks likely to beone of the outstanding Engineer mat-men.

:Decision is Made at RegularMeeting of Corporation

Held Yesterday

An increase in tuition from the pres-enlt rate of $400 a year to $500 a yearwas decided yesterday at the regularmeeting of the Corporation. Howeverthis increased rate will not go intoeffect until the beginning of the fallterm in 1931. This is the second timewithin three years that the Tuitionrate has increased, the other changebeing made ill March, 1927 when thel ate woas raised from $300 a year to$400 a yrear.

This action, which has been underdiscussion for some time, was takenfor the pul pose of helping to meetthe increased costs of education. Theannual operating expenses at the In-stitute, which in common with otherengineering colleges, mulst maintain

Iexpensive technical equipment for in-struction, last year amounted to morethan $850 for each student, comparedw ith the tuition of $400.

This move wvas madebecause of the increased costs of oper-atinlg ex;penlses and became effectivein the autumn of 1928.

K EEPING pace with the rising costs of steam, brain andchemicals, the Corporation has announced that beginning

September, 1931, the tuition at Technology will be $500 yearly.Affecting all classes except the present Junior and Seniorgroups, this decision means an increase in the student's educa-tion budget of one hundred dollars annually.

The "Why" of this step is brief. Students at the Institutereceived last year education costing their alma mater $850, forwhich they paid but $400. Even with the benefits derived frominvestments and gifts, the funds available were not deemed suf-ficient. In maintaining its undisputed leadership among educa-tional institutions and its high standard of men and equipment,the Institute has found itself cramped. The only solution wasthat of making the student pay an amount more in keepingwith the cost of the benefits he was receiving.

While this increase in tuition is likely to cause a loud objec-tion from some of the less thoughtful of the student body, theserious man cannot but see its advisability. Technology's posi-tion has always been unassailable. If it is to be kept so, it isnecessary that there be sufficient funds to provide competentmen and adequate equipment.

A study of the figures of tuition versus costs of educationyields illuminating evidence. While the operating expenses ofthe institute are four hundred percent what they were twentyyears ago, the tuition is only double what it was in 1909. In1906, when the tuition at Technology was raised to $250, tuitionat schools of liberal arts in the East was around $150. Atpresent, in spite of the fact that they have none of the expensiveengineering equipment that Technology must use, the tuition atHarvard and Yale is $400, while at Princeton it is $450. Thetuition expense at these schools has increased during the lasttwenty-five years one and a half times as much as it has at theInstitute since 1881.l

The Corporation's action is altogether in keeping with thegeneral trend among educators throughout the wor ld. The at-titude has become widespread that the student should pay alarger share of the costs of his training, and the Institute'saction is but a reflection of this logical viewpoint.|

"DON'T PUT BEANS IN YOUR NOSES"|)VHATEVER else engineering students may, not become,

however little they realize the seriousness of their pro-f ession, the majority usually simulate a certain degree of ma-turity before they have been in classes more than a few months.Some irrepressible morons retain an innocence which one sup-poses their parents find gratifying in this matter-of-f act age.

Such a "cute youngster" is the disturber of peace in Profes-sor F. W. Sears' lectures in physics. He is a whistler-not theordinary garden variety so numerous in all drawing rooms-buta nearly extinct species, a throw-back to the old days of pin-pricking youths and rod-wielding masters. His misdemeanorswere so annoying to the class and lecturer that Professor Searsdelivered an ultimatum -"Music or Physics". The music con-tinued; the class was dismissed. And thus three hundredsophomores were denied a lecture particularly important dueto the ominous approach of the mid-year examinations, and allbecause a child is not yet grown up.

The Sophomore Class president is taking steps of investiga-tion. This is as it should be-such a matter is much bettersettled out of court. Perhaps Mr. Jenkins will give the of-fender a lollypop to amuse himself with in the lecture. Apleasant antidote for the childish ailment of the culprit mightbe a dunce-cap, something to appeal to his manner of thinking.

Public warning of any sort may lead to other complications.There are still simple children in the Institute (witness the cowon the dormitory roof, the telephone pole in the corridor, thewater fights, the hideously attired fraternity initiate seen oc-casionally on the streets) and the discussion may put them inmind of other pranks.

Be your age, m~en! Such school-boy stunts may have beenthought funny in grammar school, but conduct of that -nature-necessarily deprives a whole class of essential work. It isgrossly selfish, and hardly worthy of a second grade boy, to saynothing of a second year college student.

Experiment ThatCost Ten Cents Is

Start of CareerArthur D. Little '85 Received

Many Honorary DegreesDuring Life

Drawing from a life of varied exper-iences, Arthur D. Little '85, whill ad-dress the freshman class on Mondayafternoon. The men whose privilegeit is to attend this talk have beforethem one of the most profitable houlrsit is possible to spend. Mr. Little hashad a most interesting career, and hasbeen influential in Institulte affairs.

His early education was obtained inthe public schools of his home city,Portlanld, M~aine, and at the age oftw~elv-e he had decided to become achemist. Howv this decision wasreached lie told in an interesting anec-dote. He said, "One day at school thefellowv who sat in front of me turnedaround and said that if I would giveIhim tell cents he would show me someinteresthing experiments in chemistry.Well, I haplpeled to have a dime, soafter school we two went down towvnand boiiglht five cents worth of glasstubing and five cents worth of sul-phuric <acidl. Weith this under our arm,we event to my friend's house where:lie succeeded in setting up a hydrogenI-enerator. As most kids do, we setit off too sooII, and the result was asmall explosion. This interested memost decidedly and we tried it againwith better sucecess. Then I wenthome and told my father that I wasgoing to be a chemist."

Started a Remarkable CareerA ten cent piece has probably never

started a more successful, career thanthe one set in motion by these two ex-perimenlters. From the public schoolMr. Little went to the Berkeley School,then still pursuing his chemical edu-cationl he entered Technology takiingCourse V. He took an active part inundergraduate activities and was in-stramenltal in founding THE TECHand wvas editor in 1884.

events any afternoon in the week thathe is out for P. T. At least threemen must start in a race on the trackin order that points may be scored.This is done to create a better com-petitive spirit and thus better thetimes of the men competing. All per-formances must be made in the pres-ence of either Coach Hedlund orCoach Bowie, and a record turned into the manager of track of thie timemade and the points awarded.

Limited Number of TrialsIn the field events a mal is not

allowed more than six trials in oneevent and in the track events he isallowed four trials. Tlis is neces-sitated through the sho tness of theseason and is done so that everyman may have a chance to competein all of the events. A complete rec-ord of the performances made andthe points awarded individuals willbe kept in the track office and will beopen for inspection at all times.

Records Taken As StandardIn the award of points the Tech-

nology freshman records are takenas the standard. For a performanceequalling the existing record, 100points will be awarded and other per-formances will be rewarded by agraded scale of points down to one.For any performance that is betterthan the existing record a correspond-ingly higher award will be made,

Seig Tells of New System inOperationl at University

Of Pittsburgh

tTlle attention of many ellgineerillgeducators is being directed to the

L problem of graduate cooperative workfor engineers. Witll the purpose inmind of acquainting college studentswith the work that has been under-|taken to provide suitable opportun- ities for those who w~ish to continue their studies after graduation, Dean|L. P. Seig of the University of Pitts-|

; bur-li, co-operating with the Westing-llouse Electric and ManulfacturinlM, |Company, has explained] the system

jin operation at Pittsburghl in a cir-{cular sent out to the college press|of the country.l' Deall Seig, w~ho is in administrative|clilanlte of the program says in part:|- "Indtlstl ial organizations and engi-|

t;neeri'n- educators have, undoubtedly. ,llong, felt that mutual benefits couldl |come through a co-operative educa-|' tional effort. As graduate schools de-|lv eloped the country over, it soon be- c ame apparent that graduate enroll-

*m ents ill engineering courses laggedI,|far behind stlCh enl ollmellts ill the|liberal arts sub~jects. There wvill, and of course alwvays should be, a small|Igl-oup of young engineers whose in- |terests in their unlder.-radulate yearsI|have steadily drifted toward the theo |r etical sides of engineering-toward|}the funldamenltal subjects of pllysics, }mathematics, chemistry, etc., otlt ofl{ xlich wvill come the raw materials|[for future engineering researches. l

l Many Seek Employment l"There is, however, a much larger|

Igroup of students wvlo, upon gradu- {ating, seek at once engineering em-{ployment. Sensing the need of fur-||ther training for these newly employ- ed engineering graduates, the west-l{inghoulse Company had for some years{b een operating intensive courses of

Istuldy. The employees spent the greater part of their first year or twro{with the company in directed study|under the -uidance of a numbers of their senior engineers.I

Tllis training on the part of the|company was the basis for the course|since instituted by the University of Pittsburgll. "Tlle plan wvas for the University to inspect the courses{given, translate them into educatiollal currency, that is, credits, and to plan|for further training to complete thel requirements for the award of grad- itiate degrees. A common understand. ( ing wvas sooll reaclled. Tlle engineers ( of the company engaged in conducting ( the classes were made members of the I:

staff of the University in the regular"way. Students taking these courseswere offered the privilege of register-ing at the University in the usual way,bllt it is significant that nearly allof these students have exercised theirprivilege of registering for graduatework.

Get M. S. Degrees"The additional courses needed for

the master's degree are supplied fromthe departments of mathematics andphysics of the University. If a suc-cessful oral examination is passed the candidate is given his degree of|M. S."

Dean Seig further says that approx-Iimately three hundred ANrestinlghouseIstudents have r egistered. Tile plan|has not y et operated long enough to]determine the ultimate annual prod-luct. but he is confident that the planiis educationally sounds that the stu-dents get the right impetus to glo ahead writhl research, and that gradl-itate- study ill engineering is being in- terpreted ill the right mannier .

IN HANDICAP MEETShaw and Broder Favorites ir

Sprints Harriers RunDistance Race

l 50 MEN REPORT DAILY

One and Two Mile Rela)Teams are Entered in 300

And 600-Yard Races

In spite of the fact that the shot putand the high jump will have none oithe regular Varsity men entered ircompetition, one of the largest turnouts in track history is expected forthe handicap meet tomorrow afternoon. Over one hundred and fift)men are reporting daily for practicEnow and a good percentage of thenare expected to participate in tomorrow's meet.

Shaw and Broder are still the favored combination for the sprints andthe 300-yard dash, while Soisalo audHughes are judged to be among tilEbest of the rest of the fleld. A1 fouiof these men, have turned in exceptional times on the boards since thEstart of the training season overamonth ago.

Relay Team In 300In addition to the four mentioned

above, the 300 will have all the one.mile relay candidates entered. Thesemen are all trained for the 440 whichthey must run in the relay, and shouldbe able to show up well in the shorterdistance.

One of the best races of the after.noon will be the 600-yard run. Ill thisrace are -entered all the members ofthe new two-mile relay team. Thesemen are also trained for a longer dis-tance than the race in which they areto run. They each run a half-milein the r elay and will be well able Toweather the shorter distance.

Experienced Men in 1000Conant, Kallelis, Marsters, Damon,

and Burdick are the pick of the fieldfor the 1000-yard run. These men areall experienced from thle fall season intrack that has just closed and shouldprovide close competition for allcomers.

The mile and a quarter race wvillbring back ths, cross-cotlntry runnersinto competition. Practically all ofthe harriers are entered in this r aceand will pit their strength against thatof the newer men.

Both the shot put and the high jumpentries are made ulp of non-Varsitymen. The Varsity competitors inthese two events will not compete inthe afternoon meet, due to the meetin which they are entered for the eve-ning. This should give all men achance to make a good showing inthese events.

FRESHMAN SWIMMERSWILL MEET M/ALDEN

Yearlings have Good ProspectsFor Success inl Opener

Entering the 1930 schedule wvithlhigh hopes of coming through withgreater success than ever before. theTechlnololgy yearling swimming teamwill face Malden Higll School tomior-row alighit. The meet will be held inthe tank at the Malden Y. M. C. A.Although last year's freshmen lost tothe Malden schoolboys by the score of32 to 30, the prospects for a victorythis season are unusually bright.

The team this year is led by Cal)-tain Edward May, who holds thejunior backstroke record for the city

good material, which places it on ahigh level among the freshman teamsof recent years. Some of the menwho have shown up well since train-ing started are Louis Flanders, whoswam a very good race in the breaststroke event at the recent interclassmeet, Alfred Willman, who starlred inthe dashes, and John Lynch, a credit-able performer on the spring-board.

Coach Brown desires the presenceof all the men on the squad at themeet. The team will assemble in theWest Lounge, Walker Memorial, at 6o'clock.

SKETCH BOOKS AREFREE TO STUDENTS

At various times it has been possibleto secure sketch books at the Informa-tion Office which contain sketches ofmany views seen around Technology.There will be another allotment avail-able in a week or so which can be ac-quired free of charge by the students.

Students at the Ohio university arehaving a wlrangle with the city of-

Coach McCarthy had his men prac-ticing shooting, topping off practicea short scrimmage. He expects themto be in excellent condition for thegame, in spite of the few practicesthat have been held since the holi-days.

Dance After GameAfter the game tomorrow night, the

first after-game dance will be held inthe Main Hall of Walker. Ticketshave been on sale in the Main Lobbyfor several days, and sales so farpoint toward a huge success for thelatest social innovation. Tickets maybe purchased at the gate tomorrownight, and students are urged to backcthe affair to insure the success offuture dances after every game.

Music at the first dance will be fur-nished by six pieces of Roy Lamson'sHarvardians, and the affair will lastuntil 12. The fifty cent admissionadmits a couple to both the game andthe lance.

After the game tomorrow night theteam will have a rest until after ex-aminations, although they have agame on the Saturday of vacationweek. Their next game will be withMiddlebury at Middlebury, playingYale on the Tuesday after the open-ing of the new term.
