The compounding of rubber in the manufacture of wires and cables is a most importantprocess because many phy-sical and electrical requirements must be complied with.
To insure satisfactorv results we cooperate with our customers in selecting or designingrubber compounds to meet an- unusual conditions of service.
For a period of over forty sears we, as specialists in rubber compounds for insulatingpurposes, have devoted much time and expense to the development of rubber insulation.Electrical and chemical laboratories, shovn in the photographs, are maintained Whereresearch work supplements practical experience. In this manner, we keep abreast of the
times and prepare for the inevitablethe art of compounding rubber.
changes which lust come with future progress in
Simplex products are made in a factory equipped with modern machinery, operated bX-skilled workmen and supervised by engineers who know how to produce cables that aresecond to none. A-mple testing facilities keel) a check on materials and workmanship toinsure highest possible success during construction as well as upon conmlpletion of thecables.
An efficient engineering staff is always avlailable for consultation regarding whire andcable problems.

Ry Ptallph H. Davis '31Today the Class of 1931 makes its
exit. After four years of close coni-radeship and fellowship it is withpardonable regret that the membersof the Class bid farewell to eachother at this final assembly. This re-gret is intermingled with hopeful an-ticipation for the future. W07e leavebehind us friends, many of whom we

Let us turn back the pa-es for afew years and see what changes havetaken place in our Class. Here andthere we see gaps; many well-known faces have fallen by tile way-side. Oil the other hand, since theadvent of our Class four years ago,many new faces have appDeared, trans-fers from other schools of learninghave sw-elled our ranks from year tolyear. For most, it is a day of re-joicing-the coveted diplomas Iiavebeen won. For those in the Classwho at the last moment (lid not meet,tile requirements, it is a dlay of sad-ness.
Freshman Y/ear
During the past four years eventshave taken place that we shall longremember. Let us turn the pictureback to September 23, 1927. A longtimee ago; and yet, how shoirt the in-ter~vening period.

- ~~~~EXEUNT OMdNESEXAMS are over, the main festivities of Senior Week have
passed, and today upwards of six hundred members ofthe class of 1931 will each be presented with that tokenwhich indicates that their careers as undergraduates of theMassachusetts Institute of Technology are closed. Practically,it is as simple and mechanical as that, yet certainly there mustbe something more tangible, something more impressive be-
*hind this mere ceremony of delivering diplomas.- ~Time and time again we have heard the philosophers assert
that the four years a man spends at college are likely to bethe happiest in his entire life. They mean the grasping ofunderstanding in matters of higher interest, the developmentof character and self-respect, the association with other menand the broadening influence of this association, and most ofall the gaining of an appreciation for life, action and thought.The world is standing ready for the new blood which gradulat-ing exercises in every college and university in the countrywill inject into its veins. It waits to test each one of theseaspiring young men; to force them through a long series of
-hardships and disappointments b efore they may commandpropter respect and merit the greater responsibilities.
X ~It is for this r eason that wNe would sympathize with theclass of 1931. While commencement means to most of thesemen that the Institute has recognized their mastering of a fair
-amount of the knowl1edge to which they have been exposedfor the last fewn years, they will discover all too soon that theyknow ver y little after all. Studying is not ovre-unhappythought-for a successful career n-ecessitates the acquir ingof new ideas every day. How^ev~er, there r emains the con-solation that with each advancement in experience comes acorr esponldin-g increase in the responsibilities vested in theman himself.
Such moralizing, however. seems somewhat out of placeon an occasion so 3 oyous and so elevating as commence-ment. So quiet is the function that its significance may be
-dimmed by past or future evtents. Yet, within these two shorthours are launched innumerable careers; some selfish, to besulre, but in the main, we feel, typical of reputable Technology
-men. To the class of 1931 we offer our' most hearty con--gratullations and best swishes. May youl contribute your shareto the reputation of the Institute, and may the powers of the
-industrial world be munificent! God speed!
- ~~~~IN THE MEANTIME:'WITH today's ceremony the school year 1930-31 officially
closes. yet throughout the summer m~onths the progress of-Technology wvill most certainly not be at a standstill. Summer
school, that institution which occupies the greater part of thefour months between terms, wxill dlrawv a sur prising number
-of students, men echo either wish to push ahead of the regu-lar schedules, or, and this is the greater number, w7ho havte
^ ~past work to make up. Many men who might have beengraduated today will once again assume the r ole of under-gradulates for a few months in order that they may leave theInstitute with the prosverbial "clean slate."
- ~Through the generosity of Col. Charles Hayden '90, theInstitute will for the third successive time be represented at
-the annual intercollegiate regatta at Poughkeepsie, New York,on June 16. Although the Beaver boats have not hlad anoutstanding season, it is not unreasonable to expect that theymay come thr ough with flying colors at the regatta. Inview of the fine showing last year when Technology led thegreater part of the race and dropped back to third in thelast few minutes, we look forward to the event with no littleanticipation.
- ~In the meantime, the newv buildings whill be pushed to com-pletion, adding not only to the many facilities available to
aspiring engineers at the Institute but enhancing considerablythe r epultation of Technology as an institution for scientificresearch and instruction. Along Zeith this construction is therepair -Nvork, the painting, and the minor additions wNhich areunder the supervision of Major Smith are performed eachsummer.
- ~~Obviously awhile a great numnber of men may leave the Insti--tute in June, either by graduating or for the allowed vaca--tion, progr ess is not suspended within 'Ehe operation of the
school itself, and ive may expect to return in the fall to findeverything in readiness for another term of' concentration and

( Conflnued fr" Page 0one)The work under the fellowships in
business and engineering administra-tion will begin at once, and providesfor a summer session and a subse-quent year of graduate work in a se-lected field of concentration in busi-ness administration. The fellowshipswtill lead to the degree of master ofscience in business administration.The work will include requirementsassuring familiarity with the impor-tant functions of business, namely,production, mnarketing, banking andfinance, accounting, statistics, busi-ness law,' personnel administration,and administration policy.
The six men w ho have been ap-pointed to the first fellowships werechosen after a careful analysis of therecords of the 3500 graduates of theInstitute since 1925. The Lanimot duPont Fellowship alas awarded to Ain-erst E. Huson of Manchester, N. H.

However, Ttlbby's adv ice is stillgood, if posisble of pursuit.
