_ - N 'view of the very gen-eral dissatisfaction ex-pressed by Ninty-four

!. i mmen over the timedevoted to Thesis

;,_~ /work, it 'eems fitting

I.~7,,-~'~ that the question of, fI improvement be

brought b e for e the, proper authorities be-

fore it is too late.70iII : While no fault could

as a rule be found withthe number of hours in aggregate set asideon the course schedules, this period was sobroken up into single hours that oftentimesthey were practically useless. Inasmuch asthe majority of theses undertaken by Tech-nology men require careful experiment andinvestigation, it is of prime importance thatunbroken periods be provided. Moreover,where recitations and lecture courses requireattendance, experience has shown that men

desirous of high ranking are led to slighttheses until, toward the end of the year, rapidand perhaps careless work is necessitated andthe very purpose of the thesis is defeated.

The difficulty may be obviated either byallowing lectures and recitations to cease aftera few weeks of the second term, and theremaining time devoted strictly to thesis work;or by setting aside one or two days a week,as necessity demands, throughout the term,for this purpose. If the problem be properlyconsidered, there is certainly no reason whya remedy should not be forthcoming.

S announced in another column, the Insti-tute committee has attempted to ascer-

tain the possibility of procuring for Tech-nology a charter from the Phi Beta KappaSociety. Heretofore few chapters, if any,have been established in Scientific institutions,possibly on account of a natural conservatismin the academic colleges represented, or be-cause the curriculum of the scientific collegediffers widely from that of the academic.Relying upon the size and the high standardwhich Technology has attained, however, andupon the fact that President Walker is one ofthe twelve members of the Phi Beta KappaSenate, exertions have been put forth withsome hope of success. It is only right thathigh standing should be rewarded here, as inother institutions, and election into thishonorary society insures it most satisfactorily.The Senate meetings are held but once in threeyears the next one coming in the nearfuture. At that time our cause must be ad-vanced, and with the amount of interest whichis evinced among the instructors who arealready members of the society, and by themass of men at Technology, it is reasonableto hope that a charter will be granted.

(~'~ ._E are pleased to note(~ ~that the two lower

A -Us~' Uclasses took such an~~ Ad active interest in the

et,.~ Cane Rush. At theI;6 , nbeginning of the

.". [ ,n ] ~ii-~ year the outlook fora successful rush

~; .4~t'- was dubious enough,_ ~ -but as time passed

on the true Tech--d"-;/ nology atmosphere

infused its rightful enthusiasm, and quite ex-tensive preparations were made for the fray.With such commendable interest little fear ofthe annual Cane Rush being omitted from ourcollege events need be entertained.

GAIN it is necessary to remind the Fresh-men that THE TECH awaits their contri-

butions. Since little material has as yet beenreceived from them, it has had difficulty insecuring accurate reports of the proceedingsof their various organizations. Although sev-eral Freshmen have shown their interest bypersonally forwarding matter, yet it is im-possible for Ninety-eight to secure adequaterepresentation through the columns of THE

TECH unless more contributions are received.

GAIN the subject of a Western trip hascome up for consideration before the Glee

and Banjo Clubs, and once more the questionof support by Technology men and by ourWestern Alumni Association arises. Owingto the general financial stringency of a yearago, and the consequent uncertainty of a suit-able backing, the project for an initial tourwas given up. For many reasons it is unfor-tunate that the matter was delayed; each yearrenders it more difficult to undertake, andonly widens the impression that the thing isnot feasible. While we realize the fact that a

large fund must be forthcoming before the tripis completed, nevertheless with a suitableguarantee from our alumni in Chicago, to-gether with the amount which will result fromthe Midwinter Concert, a sufficient sum shouldbe raised to insure the carrying out of theplan. Moreover, by giving concerts in thelarger cities on the route the relative cost willbe proportionately less. The enthusiasm inthe clubs has been so great that already aproposal has been made by the members tocontribute individually a large amount.

The benefits which will accrue to Technol-ogy from a trip to Chicago will be manifold.With the standard which the Banjo Club hasattained, and the constant improvement in thework of the Glee Club, successful concertsare assured.

WITH the meeting of Monday afternoon,November I2th, the Institute Committeefairly began upon its work for I894-95. Withtwo years of history, the committee is ablethe more readily to comprehend its powersand to bring to a consummation the plansproposed and formulated a year ago. Severaltopics of general interest to Technology menwere considered, and a decided action takenupon them. The matter of adopting a satis-factory pin which should be representativeand authorized was brought up, and aftersome discussion it was unanimously agreedto again open the competition for designs.While it is hoped that a wide range of ideaswill be displayed by men handing in designs,it is desired that the pennant form be well repre-sented. The great fault to be found in thework of last year was the intricacy of thedesigns and the consequent difficulty of repro-duction in metals.

The subject of having a more extendedrecess at Christmas was advanced, and suita-ble action will be immediately taken by thecommittee.

In view of the spasmodic and oftentimes in-effectual attempts made by members of Tech-nology in leading the cheering at all Athleticcontests, the committee voted to confer withthe Athletic Association and insure the ap-pointment of eight men, fi-om the Senior andJunior classes, to serve in this capacity forthe year.

Inasmuch as the committee is chosen fromall Technology to represent the college, itwas thought advisable to place its picture inthe coming "Technique." Following out theefforts of the former committees, a sub-com-mittee, consisting of Messrs. Canfield, Haydenand Hyde was appointed to see what could bedone toward obtaining a Technology charterfrom the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Very littlewas done during the past two years, on ac-count of the triennial meetings of the SocietySenate, the first meeting since the formationof the Institute Committee being held duringthe coming year.

Any applicantmay become a member on the presentation ofhis name by some member of the club and bya majority vote.

Ninety-six held its second meeting of theyear on Wednesday, November I 4 th, at oneo'clock in Room II, Rogers. The class votedto advance money to the " Technique" Boardto cover the expense of publishing the classphotograph in the annual; also to sustain itsshare in the cost of insertion of the InstituteCommittee picture. Mr. Hurd requestedmaterial in the shape of grinds, quotationsand artistic work, and Mr. Rockwell, asAthletic Captain, spoke of the prospect ofwinning the class championships for 1894-95.It was agreed to offer two prizes of five dollarseach for the best class design and class historyfor the "Technique." Mr. Harrington re-ported progress on the pin committee, and themeeting was adjourned.

The following notice was recently posted onthe general bulletin board: "While the In-stitute letter rack is designed to accommodatestudents to the greatest extent practicable, itis impossible to afford the best service to stu-dents who do not rent letter boxes. Accord-ingly, it is requested that students who haveno boxes, arrange, so lar as possible, toreceive their correspondence, including official

If telegrams or special deliveryletters are received for students not found inthe rooms of the Institute, they will in generalbe forwarded to the attendance card address,and, in case of telegrams, a memorandum willbe sent to the letter rack. When advertisingmatter is received in large quantities it will bemade accessible outside the letter rack, andwill, at the expiration of ten days, be re-turned to the Post Office unless the contraryis desired."

On November 8th, a meeting was heldbetween the cane-rush committees of theSophomore and Freshman classes, to arrangethe details of the annual rush. Mr. Allenand Mr. Parker represented '97; Mr. Willis,Mr. Leiper, and Mr. Mara, '98. The dateof Wednesday, November 2ISt, was acceptedas proposed by the 'Varsity football manage-ment, which has assumed each year full chargeof the Sophomore-Freshman game. It wasagreed that the rush should take place as soonafter the football game as the men could con-veniently form.

Mr. Thomas, '95, and Mr. Hurd, '96, werechosen to act as referees, and were given thepower to rule a man out of the rush for fouls.A pistol shot from one of the referees wouldopen the contest, while two or more shots inrapid succession would announce the end of thetime agreed upon. The Freshman commit-tee gave a guarantee on behalf of its classthat the cane would not be intentionally car-ried from the center of the field during thecontest, and that the class would not availitself of any position of advantage, fence,building, etc., and would not employ anymeans other than the physical efforts of itsmembers to protect the cane.

In discussing the duration of the rush, itwas found that the Freshman committeewished a shorter time than the Sophomoresfelt able to allow, while neither side saw away to effect a compromise. An arbitration

committee, consisting of Mr. George, Mr.Thomas, '95, Mr. Greene, '95, Mr. Hurd, '96,and Mr. Rockwell, '96, was chosen. Thiscommittee met on the 12th of November, anddecided upon twenty minutes as the lengthof the rush, which was approved by the classcommittee.

Technology, 4; C. A. A., 4.TECHNOLOGY played one of the hardest-

fought and most exciting games of the seasonwith the Chicago Athletic Association, atthe South End grounds, last Monday. Theplay from start to finish was strong andsnappy, and abounded in brilliant runs andfine interference. The ground was slipperyin places, and although this added to theroughness of the contest, it did not preventa good exhibition of football. The weatherwas perfect, cold, and crisp, and infused en-thusiasm into spectators and players alike.

The Chicago eleven were much heavier thantheir opponents, and their gains were almostalways due to mass plays. Stevenson, Mc-Cormick, and Thomas formed an invincibletrio, and opened gaps in the opposite linewith ease. Van Doozer played the bestgame for Chicago behind the line, and hisgains at critical times did much for histeam.

Technology's strength was behind the line,I where Thomas, Hayden, Rockwell, and Un-derwood showed some of the prettiest inter-ference seen this year. The right end andtackle were very strong, but the Chicago backsmade a weak spot at left end and left tackleby constant hammering. The center andguards were shaky during the first half, butrallied in the second and stood firm. Rock-well played the star game for Technology,and his beautiful run in the second half en-abled his team to score.

Rockwell opened the game with a 40-yardkick to Henry, who returned the ball, byfine interference, to Chicago's 45-yard line.Chicago then made slight gains through

Technology's line, and after trying to run herends, lost the ball on four downs. Rockwelland Thomas netted ten yards, then Under-wood was forced to punt. Swift got downthe field in fine shape, and Chicago had theball on her 4o-yard line. The visitors thenstarted in with a rush, and by constant ham-mering at Technology's line, carried the balldown the field for a touchdown. No goalwas kicked. Score, 4 to o.

Rockwell kicked to Van Doozer, whowas downed without a gain. Then Chicagoforced the ball to Technology's 30-yard line,where it was lost on four downs. During theseplays Chicago used her tackles with greateffect. Underwood was forced to punt; thehalf closed with the ball in the center of the field.

The second half opened with a kickoff toThomas on Technology's 30-yard line. Rushesby Rockwell and Hayden and a pretty Is-yarddash by Ames carried the ball well into thevisitors' territory, where it was lost on downs.Chicago then made slight gains, but lost theball to Le Moyne on a fumble. Hayden wasinjured in the next play, and Howland camein to take his place. After two short gainsRockwell broke through right tackle anddashed down the field. The excitement wasintense, and most of the spectators did notknow for a moment whether he had scored ornot. He was downed within a foot of the goalline, and Technology braced herself for afinal effort. Twice the Chicago line with-stood the desperate plunges of Thomas andRockwell; then the former was pushed over,tying the score. Underwood failed to kick agoal.

Technology was unable to gain much afterthe kick-off, and the ball went to C. A. A. atthe center of the field. Jackson then made amagnificent run around left end for thirtyyards, and a moment afterwards around rightend for fifteen more. The interference of theChicago eleven in these two plays was re-markably fine. Chicago was gaining groundsteadily when time was called.

ABOUT one hundred and fifty football enthu-siasts watched Technology defeat Trinity i8-oon the South End grounds last Saturday in adrizzling rain. The playing on both sideswas hardly up to the standard, and there.wasmuch more slugging than was necessary.The field was very slippery and few longruns were made, although Captain Thomascircled the end for thirty-eight yards in thesecond half, and Howland broke throughtackle for a pretty run of twenty-five yards.

Trinity eleven was greatly weakened by theloss of two regular players, and Technologymust put up a stronger game than on Saturdayto defeat Brown on Thanksgiving Day.

Technology's line was like a stone wall, andthe backs supported the rushers so well thatTrinity's gains through guard and tackle werefew and far between. Ames and Aultmanworked splendidly together, and Trinity gaveup trying to force them after several unsuc-cessful attempts.

Behind the line Rockwell did the best workduring the first half, while Howland madesome of the prettiest runs of the game, andfollowed his interference beautifully. WhenRockwell retired, on account of injuries to hisarm, Captain Thomas took his place andMansfield came into quarter. Thomas un-doubtedly played the star game for Tech-nology. He ran oftener and for greaterdistances than the other backs, and his inter-ference was a feature of the game.

Le Moyne, Aultman, and Ames did excel-lentwork when called upon to run with theball, and Le Moyne is especially good atbucking the line, on account of his strengthand weight.

The game began at 3.I5 with Langford'skick-off to Underwood. The ball changedhands several times on downs, and once itlooked as though Trinity might score fromTechnology's I15-yard line; but the latterrallied, and by steady gains forced the balldown the field, and Underwood finally scoredafter thirty minutes play. No goal was kicked,and the score remained 4-o in Technology'sfavor.

In the second half Technology improvedwonderfully, and the visitors could not keepthe ball long enough to make an importantgain. Technology had the kick-off, but soonrecovered the ball and carried it down thefield with a snap and dash that was woefullylacking in the first half. Thomas and How-land took turns carrying the pigskin, and LeMoyne scored after three minutes' play. Un-derwood kicked a goal, and the score stoodI0-O.

Twice more Technology scored touchdowns,but the goal kicking was wretched, and thetotal of four touchdowns brought but eighteenpoints. Thomas was the life of the eleven,and all the men showed the effects of thecoaching. The game was called by the con-sent of both captains on account of darkness,with two minutes more playing time left.

IT was small comfort that the Lounger succeeded inextracting from his recent hebdomadal perusal of thebulletin boards, though a modest announcement wellcalculated to inspire eternally springing hope confrontedhim with the welcome intelligence that certainsemi-annual examinations were to be omitted in thethird and fourth years. While a single digit no longersuffices to denominate the Lounger's year, he stilltakes a lively interest in some of the subjects ourSeniors pursue- least squares, for instance, havingproved marvelously efficient in transactions with"Reddy "-and when welcome examination intelli-gence arrives, he rejoices accordingly.

Close inspection, however, failed to reveal to themost discerning eye any material decrease in the re-quirements, and with a melancholy smile the Loungerturned disconsolately away.

But it was with brighter mien that he beheld theoracle guardian's stern announcement on the near-bybulletin that "THIS BOARD IS FOR OFFICIAL NOTICES

ONLY." Attractive as are the imploring or mandatorypronunciamentos that find expression in the artisticwork of the chirographic expert, it has always seemedas though this board might be indulged with a briefrespite, and that it might occasionally bear some morecheerful announcement than the time-honored oneabout "Notes, for sale by the Bursar." With thisthought, the Lounger lately rejoiced to see one of thecustomary hieroglyphic notices supplemented by aclear and concise invitation to "Buy THE TECH," andlater on by an effectively worded summons to the clansof Ninety-six for their class picture. But such uncere-monious treatment of the patent be-castered and be-swiveled blackboard was not regarded with favor bythe authorities,-tended to lower its tone, they said,-and henceforth, the Lounger supposes, this covetedcoign must be abandoned to cold and heartless procla-mations from "official" sources.

Hazards on tlie state of the-weather are, it seems,no more to be relied upon than the proverbial best-laid plans of mice and men. Simooms and icy blastsalternate with such bewildering rapidity that one can-not safely predict two hours in advance. It may beregarded as excusable on this ground, that theLounger's carefully prepared climatic effort whichgraced his page in last week's TECH seemed, perhaps,a trifle inopportune. Whether the fickle god whorules over Boston weather will have clasped all oncemore in his icy grip before the Lounger has anotheropportunity to retract, is of course highly conjectural,and might prove an interesting subject for a bet. Atany rate the Lounger is forced to acknowledge a slightweakness in meteorological forecast, which even hisyears of experience have been unable to dispel. Sun-shine, zero blizzards, and the other interesting phe-nomena which make up the jolly season of winter,have this year given no assurance of further reform intheir waywardness, and the Lounger, like other mortals,must bow to the inevitable, and meekly accept what-ever the gods may deign to send.

Neither election losses nor threatened flunks havebeen able to keep many lovers of the game frompreparations to witness the great contest next Satur-day. Attractive announcements of reduced rates andthe vaunted charms of a special car have decidedmany an uncertain soul, and the Lounger is glad toknow that Technology is to be well represented atSpringfield. The Herald's able rdsumd of the Har-vard-Technology question left one in delightful un-certainty, but the Lounger has been assured thatTechnology's delegation is sure to cheer for eitherHarvard or Yale, and his heart is at rest.

The old stagers who have seen every contest since"the year Harvard won," together with the expectantcrowds of youths and maidens witnessing the greatstruggle for the first time, are to enjoy a royal goodtime. The bright masses of color, the crazy, cheeringcrowds, the whole brilliant scene which the last fouryears have witnessed under clear Yale-blue skies, formindeed a sight to cheer the veriest misanthrope, andmake glad the heart of the crustiest curmudgeon thatlives.

The Lounger does not look on this spectacle withany invidious eye. He realizes that such demon-strations are not to be seen on our own field, whereour doughty players strive heroically in the inspiritingpresence of a paltry two hundred. Buried under

harsh restrictions and struggling against heavy odds,college spirit at Technology has had at best a hardtime of it, which even the splendid victory at Worces-ter has not been able to ameliorate. But the situationseems to be changing in the right direction, and theLounger hopes that the no distant day may see Tech-nology occupy that position in the field of collegeathletics to which she ought to aspire.

AS PANTS THE HEART.

Thle bicyclienne in her bloomers gay,Complacently went o'er the dusty way.

"Look at the pants !" was the hue and cryThat came from the lips of the passers-by.That girl was vexed at the rude address,And made up her mind to seek redress.

-Brunonian.

AN ACROSTIC.

First,-if you'll pardon some adviceRendered in the humblest way,-

Emblazon not abroad your vice,Smoking on the streets by day.

Hide, alas! your latent greatness;Merit is ever truly blind.

Eager be to veil your wiseness,Not to show vacancy of mind.

-Williams lWeeek ly.

A curious Japanese dragon,Carven in tortoise-shell,

Guards o'er my lady's tresses,Defending his treasure well.

As the fabulous flame-breathing monsterDid in the days of yore,

When crouched in his dusky cavernHe guarded his glittering store.

Till the knight came charging toward him,Fearless, and brave, and bold,

Who slew the sulphurous dragon,And captured all the gold.

Then hail to the happy heroWho wins the treasure rare!

But, hero, spare the dragon,He looks so well in her hair.

- Vassar Miscellany.

THE FOOTBALL CRITIC.

The football critic! 0, he knowsThe game well. Pray don't suppose

For an instant he doesn't. He's notA poor cynic; he knows what's what

From his head right down to his toes.The finest points he can disclose;Of knotty problems he'll dispose;

O he's the man to plan and plot!The football critic.

MY AUTOGRAPH.

My autograph she begged the nightWhen first her beauty filled my sight;"Not just your name, you know," quoth she,"But something nice besides; may beA poem, or a maxim trite."I yielded to the witching lightOf her soft eyes, and did indite,

Entwined with flowers of poesy,My autograph.

She perches on my knee to-night,And in her eyes, so clear and bright,

The old light dwells. Ah, woe is me!My check book in her hand I see,

And once again she begs me writeMy autograph.

Two little girls in blue, lads,Two little girls in blue,

In these rampant days of the bicycle craze;Make way for something new.

For these two little girls in blue, lads,According to popular rumors,

-The J'Vidow.

A sophomore bold, and careless, and gay,One afternoon of a winter day,Fixed himself up and went to a play;It was Richard III., and a matinee.

The sophomore sat in the front parquet;All was serene as a day in May,Until King Richard began to pray,A horse! a horse !" in a faithful way.

When the sophomore sprang from his seat, they say,And cried, the poor king's fears to allay,I'll get you a horse without delay!I know how it is! I have felt that way."
