,l ' _ _ sT last a feeling of unityc . has sprung up among

the Exeter men atTechnology. Duringthe past two weeks

J.i, ~ W l-lmeetings were held,and a permanent clubwas duly organizedand put on a substan-tial basis for futuresuccess. It has oftenbeen a surprise to usthat a number of such

clubs have not existed before. It is true that,drawn together by harmonious thoughts, thestudents from the South gave life to a SouthernClub, but even that was allowed to drift awayinto obscurity. The advantages to be derivedfrom clubs formed by men from the sameacademy, school, country, or even state, andthere are plenty of men from several distantstates to support a state club, are too apparentto need enumeration.

There is yet an abundance of room for suchorganizations at Technology, and THE TECHwill be pleased soon to record their foundation.

(jHE whole college world has been muchinterested in the consideration of the ques-

tion of college athletics, which fills a large por-tion of President Eliot's recently issued annualreport. The article in question rather sharplyarraigns college sports for the undue amountof time expended upon them, and for the con-stantly increasing elements of danger in someof the games. Dr. Eliot declares that collegeathletics should not be pursued as an end inthemselves, nor as a means of providing peri-odical amusement for large numbers of peoplewho are not college students; their properprovince is to serve a useful end in buildingup the physique of the student body as awhole, and proficiency in them should notdwarf mental or moral pre-eminence by rea-son of exaggerated admiration for physicalprowess. The report speaks most favorablyof track athletics, and of most of the othergames. Foot-ball, however, as might be ex-pected in the light of the developments of lastfall, calls out pretty severe criticism. Thisgame, the report says, is not objected to be-cause it involves a certain amount of risk, asall other manly sports do, but because therisks are inordinate and excessive; for in noother game do we see such habitual disregardfor the safety of one's opponent. For therelief of evils attendant on a too great expen-diture of time upon college games, a limita-tion in the number of intercollegiate and inter-class contests is proposed, together withrestrictions as to the number of teams whicha man mnay play on in a single year. As forfoot-ball, it should not be played until a suita-

ble set of rules be devised which shall strictlydefine the style of play, and diminish thenumber and violence of collisions betweenthe contestants. College athletics in generalare treated very favorably, and as an argu-ment for promoting them, he cites the im-provement in the bodily condition of collegestudents during the past twenty years.

The review of a question like this is of in-terest to all college men, particularly when itcomes from the head of the foremost AmericanUniversity. The question of the growth ofathletics in our colleges is one of increasingimportance, and is commanding the investiga-tion of thoughtful men throughout the country.

3ffUCH satisfaction is felt in regard to theresults of the Senior Class-day election.

The men chosen for office are well fitted forthe positions which they have been calledupon to fill, and at the same time are thor-oughly representative of the class. The checklist showed that nearly every member of theclass expressed his opinion as to the meritsand fitness of the different candidates. Thesuccess of the manner of conducting the elec-tion, as well as the general aptitude of thecandidates for the different offices, reflectsmuch credit on the Class Day NominatingCommittee. The general interest of the class,the ability of the officers, and the generalgood feeling manifest on all sides, indicatesuccessful and enjoyable Class-day exercises.

(j E were pleased to note the enthusiasmshown by the class of '87 at its annual

dinner. Several other classes have formed verystrong class associations, and it is to them thatno little of the widespread fame of Technol-ogy is due. THE TECH can prophecy that atno distant date the great majority of our alumniand friends will awaken to the great work ac-complished by Technology, and will gladlycome to our aid in such numbers as will put

her on firm ground, where she will be assuredof the future prosperity so justly due her.

ACHE great success of the Senior dinner wasa surprise to everyone, even to the Sen-

iors themselves. It seems natural that anySenior dinner should call out more men thanthe dinners of the lower classes, as the Seniorsare better acquainted than the remainder ofthe undergraduates, yet this has not alwaysbeen the case. The greatest number at anyclass dinner previous to the one at Parker's onthe 20th of February, was the Freshman din-ner of the class of '96, at which one hundredand five were present. At its dinner on Feb-ruary 20oth, the classs of '94 raised the recordto one hundred and six. The Seniors arecertainly to be congratulated on their show ofenthusiasm, which is equal to that of any col-lege about us, especially as the class enrollsbut one hundred and forty-six regular students.

LETTER from Secretary Tyler to theArchitectural Department reads in part

as follows: At the last meeting of the Ex-ecutive Committee of the Corporation it wasvoted that the Letang Drawings be not pur-chased by the Institute. I am requested bythe treasurer to add that the Committee ear-nestly desire to meet the wishes of various de-partments, but that at present it is entirelyimpossible to go into any extra expense what-soever, and that only what is absolutelyessential can be done. However, everythingwhich is necessary to secure the best instruc-tion, the Committee will strive to obtain.

Referring to the last phrase, " everythingwhich is necessary to secure the best instruc-tion, the Committee will strive to obtain,"leads us to believe that the Committee do notconsider these drawings essential to the besttraining. It is safe to say that no drawings inthe possession of tlhe department are consultedmore than these very ones of Professor

Letang. They are part of the instruments,-

the machinery of the department,-and con-

sidering the comparatively slight expenditure

which is made for the architectural course in

this respect, the decision of the Committee is

to be greatly regretted. Furthermore, in

view of the fact that this department is more

than self-supporting, it would seem that such

a small expense should not be begrudged even

during the great financial stringency. The

architects are displeased with the decision, and

at the present writing it is very probable that a

mass meeting of the three upper years will be

called to petition the proper authorities to

secure the designs.

THE~ TEOCH.

The course of lectures by Mr. ThomasHastings, of New York City, recently com-pleted at Harvard, were attended by a largenumber of Course IV. men. The series ofart lectures given this winter at Harvard is anextremely interesting one. Messrs. EdwinHowland Blashfield, F. Hopkinson Smith, andThomas Hastings have already given courses,and equally representative men in otherdepartments of art are yet to come. Thelectures are free to the public.

The '96 "ITechnique'" Electoral Board heldits first meeting in Room ii, Rogers, Tues-day afternoon, February 20oth. lr. R. D.Flood was appointed temporary chairman,and Mr. C. E. Trout, secretary. Four ruleswere unanimously adopted to govern the workof the committee: Fifteen should constitute aquorum; twenty should be necessary to achoice; that each speaker on any given nameshould be limited to five minutes, and thatCushing's Manual should decide points ofparliamentary law. The committee thenadjourned for a week.

The result of the election of Class Day Offi-cers in the Senior class is given below : ForChief Marshal, T. P. Curtis; Orator, C. A.Meade; Poet, A. A. Shurtleff; Historian,T. C. Davies; Statistician, C. A. MacClure;Prophet, H. M. Chase; Second Marshal, A.B. Tenney; Third Marshal, J. C. Stevens.For Class Day Committee the following menwere elected: S. H. Blake, A. A. Clement,E. D. Clarke, and C. VWT. Dickey; L. S.Greenleaf, F. WT. Howard, W. H. King andL. R. Nash; J. C. Nowell, G. W. Sherman,W. R. Wescott and C. N. Wrightington.

The regular meeting of " L'Avenir" washeld on February 2Ist. Mr. Cushing andMr. Wendell were elected honorary membersof the society. F. E. Matthes, '95, openedthe literary programme with some interestinganecdotes of a celebrated German professor,and Professor Chandler followed with an

amusing account of his adventures in France.E. P. Mason, '97, told about a wealthy Frenchbeggar; then Dr. Van Daell added a few re-marks on the same species in this country.The next meeting of the society will be heldon March Ist, when Mr. Chas. H. L. M.Bernard will speak on the title and aim of thesociety. Several other interesting speechesare also promised.

Some time ago the executive committee ofthe Junior class elected a committee to exam-ine the possibility of a Junior assembly. Thecommittee has so far met with quite a gratify-ing response, which goes to prove that therestill exists in Technology an interest in a lifeapart from the one of mere grinding. Theassembly is to be styled "The Junior Assem-bly," being given under the charge of theJunior class. The date was set for Thursday,March 2 9 th, in the hope that this, in conjunc-tion with the other events of the same week,may give the men a few days of social gaiety,and a relaxation from study which should beextremely welcome. The committee consistsof the following juniors: C. W. Bigelow, F.W. Fuller, R. B. Sheridan, G. Swope, andH. J. Watson.

At the meeting and dinner of the class of'87, held at Young's, the following resolutionswere passed:

WVHEIREAS, We, the members of the class of '87, M. I. T.,realize with deep concern that, through lack of adequatefinancial support, our alma mater is seriously hamperedin maintaining and extending its work, in which it hasbeen so signally successful, and to which its alumnithroughout the world are indebted to an almost incalcu-lable degree:

Resolved, That we extend to President Walker and his

associates in control, the assurance of our hearty supportand co-operation in furthering any steps, legal or other-wise, w\hich may be taken toward obtaining financial re-lief, and in impressing the public generally and the scien-tific world in particular with the value of the work beingdone at the institute, and the justice of its claims to moreliberal public recognition and support.

It is gratifying to learn that our alumni arealive to our needs, and that they have such adeep concern for their alma mater.

THIin Seniors may well be pleased with thesuccess of the dinner at the Parker HI-ouse,February 20th. In point of numbers, excel-lence of toasts, and general scciability, thedinner was unexcelled.

One hundred and six members gatheredto extoll the class of Ninety-four, and to spendan evening in good fellowship. Artistic menucards greeted the Seniors as they filed into the.brilliant banquet hall, and ere long its attract-ive dishes were fast disappearing before thevigorous attack. With many a joke andpleasantry the sweets disappeared, and at lastthe toast list claimed attention. Mr. Price,the president of the class and presiding officerof the evening, was greeted with hearty roundsof applause as he rose to address the class.Soon the class and the institute cheer rangthrough the hall, and Ninety-four was pre-pared for the toasts to follow.

After words of greeting and congratulatoryremarks Mr. Price referred to the nature of theInstitute, and ably reviewed its history fromthe time, twenty-nine years ago, when twenty-seven students gathered under the leadershipof President Walker, through the painstaking,conscientious charge of President Runkle, tothe present gronwth of the Institute under theguidance of President Walker. Referringthen to the quotation, "For the noblest manthere still remains a conflict," Mr. Price spokehopefully of the fiuture, and prophesied success

to follow the earnest work of the founders ofthe Institute and the so-far successful efforts ofNinety-four.

Mr. Price then felicitously introduced thetoastmaster of the evening, 1Mr. R. K. Shep-pard, a man who has ever had the interests ofthe class at heart, and who has labored mostearnestly for its success.

When the applause had ceased, Mr. Shep-pard spoke of his appreciation of such oppor-tunities for friendly intercourse,-opportuni-ties but too few in the busy couarse of tihe In-stitute. He mentioned the element of sadnessin the realization that this dinner was the lastthe class could enjoy, and that the necessaryseparation was so soon to come, adding, hap-pily, however, in the words of President Wal-ker, "It was this for which you came." Inspeaking of the successes of the class, Mr.Sheppard brought forward a poem, written byMr. A. A. Shurtleff, which was much appre-ciated. With final words of good will andfriendship, Mr. Sheppard then introduced Mr.Meade, who was greeted with the applause healways receives.

In response to the toast " Aifcns Cl ari'ZZLus,"the motto of the Institute, Mr. Meade showedhow "IMind and I-land" was the best, the suc-cessful means of overcoming the difficulties ofengineering problems which meet the gradu-ates of Technology. Mr. Meade then spokeof the need of the broader application of thework to the political and social world outsidethe Institute work. " No single thing," saidMr. Meade, "is the object of education; theunion of many is necessary." In closing hisremarks Mr. Meade called for a union ofvoices in behalf of Technology, and againthe old cheer re-echoed in the banquet hall.

Mr. Tenney was next introduced, and inresponse to the toast "The How," talkedpleasantly of the uncertain frame of mind anengineer must assume to tell I the how " ofInstitute life and methods. With less diffi-culty he told how '94 had appeared on thebaseball field, and how its interests had been

conducted on other satisfactory occasions. Inlighter vein, he related happenings in whichthe how was adequately developed, and re-tired in the midst of laughter and applause.

Mr. Sheppard next called upon Mr. Che-ney, Mr. Case and Mr. Hicks to discoursesweet music from guitar and banjo. Underthe influence of the sweet strains, great hilar-ity appeared at the farther end of the hall.II More" not being forthcoming, the toast listwas again called to view.

Mr. MacClure responded to the toast, "AFeast of Facts," in a most jocose manner.His wit took a wider range than yet attempted,and the ' honor" able Faculty, the classificationof intelligence and the judgment of the BostonCommon Council, all received his kindly con-sideration. MrI. Sherman was next calledupon to dispense one of his many successfulstories; and after a few desultory remarksregarding T-E TECH, he produced a mostthrilling character sketch. When the applausewhich greeted this artistic creation hadceased, Mr. Hewitt favored the class with apleasing bass solo.

"Our Athletic Life" was next treated rathercaustically by Mr. Clarke, who seemed im-mensely impressed with the infinitesimalamount of athletic energy of '94. He re-viewed the startling history of the class, andwondered if the Seniors realized the amountof work done. The class was assured that"that was the question," and that "perhaps"Mr. Clarke was justified in his able yetdepreciatory remarks.

To "The Cosmopolite" Mr. Davies re-sponded, and, speaking from the standpoint ofa man born in England, yet having earnestappreciation of the educational advantages ofthe United States and the hospitality of herpeople, he proceeded to speak of the broadmeaning of cosmopolacy and the desirabilityof pleasant relations between countries. Hehappily reviewed the pleasures of Institute life,and thanked the members of the class for theirmanifest friendship.

The applause following Mr. Davies responsewas at last dispelled by more pleasing strainsof music by Mr. Cheney and Mr. Case.Mr. Sheppard then introduced Mr. Lowell, aman with college experience outside Technol-ogy, who, responding to the toast " A LiberalEducation," spoke of the added benefits to begained by Institute graduates after theirearnest work at Technology was at an end.

Mr. Dickey, whose toast was "My Lassie,"was prevented by sickness from attending thedinner, and Mr. Sheppard called upon Mr.Wood, who responded with several entertain-ing stories. A baritone solo by Mr. Bateswas next received with enthusiasm, and thenMr. Ames responded to "Wit and Wisdom."With sparkling jest Mr. Ames reviewed thepleasantries of the past, with many a hit atInstitute affairs. Mr. Curtis then respondedbriefly to "Fashioned, Furnished, Finished,"and, continuing the fire of wit started by Mr.Ames, amused the class by reading a poetic'caricature written by a prominent member ofthe engineering course.

This toast completed the list, and ere longthe hall was cleared, and Ninety-four hadmet as a class for the last time about thebanquet board.

Courtney of Cornell has been engaged tocoach the Harvard crew for a few weeks.This engagement will not, however, interferewith his work at Cornell.

Cornell will take her annual inspection tourfor the benefit of the Sibley College duringthe Easter vacation. Sections will go toBuffalo and vicinity, and visit electric andmechanical plants there, while the MarineEngineers will visit Philadelphia, Baltimore,Washington, and New York.

President Eliot, together with ten otherprominent educators, has in preparation anexhaustive work on the relation betweencolleges and preparatory schools. Whencompleted, this will probably be the mostimportant treatise of the kind ever published.

TECIOH.

THE Lounger extends his congratulations to theSenior Class on the results of the recent Class-dayelection. 1-e also takes to himself no little credit inbringing about such happy conditions. It has everbeen his duty and pleasure to point out the irregular-ities and faults of past elections, and after a few years'tutelage the Seniors have evinced the practicability ofabolishing caucus methods and political cliques fromclass elections. There was little of the lobby elementin this election, and the officers may rest assured thatthey hold their positions independently of course orfraternity "pull." TIo be sure there were someamusing failings, which would attract the attention ofan exacting critic. It can scarcely be doubted thatthe meaning of the Australian ballot system did notreceive its strictest interpretation, and as a result, theman who ever volunteers the use of his extensive andvaluable knowledge of the ability and fitness of can-didates to those members of the class who excludethemselves from class acquaintance, was allowed toadvertise himself unmolested. On the other hand,the Lounger did not fail to notice the novel electionmethod, due, it is said, to the Clemen(t)cy of theNominating Committee, which did away with themuch abused, yet hitherto necessary, "consolationcommittee" election. The appearance of the namesof candidates for the Class Day Committee, and formore prominent class officers as well, avoided thenecessity of a second election, and at the same timeafforded to unsuccessful candidates the opportunityfor representation on the Committee. Those werewise heads, too, that placed the election on the dayfollowing the class dinner, for the toasts of that occa-sion furnished factors which were, without doubt, ofno small importance in the estimation of candidateefficiency; and although such benefits were of neces-sity confined to certain candidates, it is well that thedisplays of merit should come before rather than afterelection.

As for the men elected it will suffice to say that the

Lounger is assured that they are those who have evershown their interest in the class, in the football field,in the official chair, in committee work, in class meet-ings, and in all the social gatherings which go to makethe life of a class more than can be given by booksand laboratory. Class I)ay is essentially a socialevent, and it is well that Ninety-four may rest assuredthat the duties and pleasures of such festivities will bewell and honorably conducted by representative menwell qualified to fill the office.

Ninety-six, too, with its startling yet characteristic" M. I. T. Ballot," seems to have arrived on the happyside of a class election; and although the harder rubis yet to come, the I,ounger has been confidentiallyinformed that the electoral committee will conductitself according to usual Sophomore decorum andunanimity. The Lounger was pleased to note thatco-education is receiving full acknowledgment at thehands of the Sophomores; for with that gallantry,efficacy, and intrepidity which permits the Sophomoreto twirl the cane so daintily, has he recognized thebenefits of universal suffrage and the need of adequaterepresentation. Another striking feature of the resultsof the election was the good judgment shown in fol-lowing THE TICH Board in recognizing the literaryabilities of several prominent Sophomores. TheLounger only regrets that there were no more TECHeditors to be elected. With such results in mind theLounger says to '97: " Go to, and do likewise. Con-tribute to THE TECH, and when the passing glory of'Technique' Boards appears, then again may yougather fame by the wayside."

The gorgeous spectacle of doughty warriors attractedthe Institute world to Boylston Street last week. Itwas no ordinary procession of ancients and horribles,nor yet the well taught, self-confident parade of theM. I. T. C. C. that aroused the ecstasy of expectationand stirred the well-known military instinct of Tech-nology when the distant boom of approaching medleydisturbed the ever-quiet profundity of Institute walls.The scarlet splendor that greeted the Lounger'sappearance on the steps was only equaled by theenergy with which the inspired souls beat the far-reaching drums. On one of these fearful instrumentsappeared the words, "Heaven, Eternity, Hell;" andas the band disappeared in the distance, the last worddirectly under the drummer's vicious strokes seemed,to the Lounger's great satisfaction, in immediatedanger of everlasting destruction.

Now, when she came down in her evening gown,She carried her palette and brush;

"Oh, Mr. -, would it not be nice-"Then paused, and started to blush.

Poor Mr. - spoke up in a trice," Proceed, dear." And thus she went on:

"A rabbit to paint on your head, where there ain't-"But he stopped her bebore she was done,
