THERtEtcores a tinie in the Life of every volume of THE TECHTwhen it mtlst come to an end, and the members of the ManagingBoard mlust watch the new Board preempt the desks that they havebeen occupying for so long. It is with not a little regret that theBoard of Volumne XLIV announces that this is the last issue vendertheir regime.

Starting with the new term, the management of THE TECHwill pass on to the hands of the Managing Board of Volume X1LV.The present Managing Board feels sure that the student bodyjoins them in wishing the new board a most successful year.

CHEATING

PAITH each set ofr exan-liiiationls, there comnes anew to men echoHi/ have not donce their wo-rk; during the term, the temrptation toaccoinplish by cheating that which they are unable to do by honor-able nmeans. Thoughi the practice is bay no mecans as prevalent hereat Technlology- as it is ail nlaiiy other institutions, there are never-tlheless scattered and isolated instances of dislhonest-. Fortunate-ly these instances are few and far lbetweenl, but the Institute whouldbe a Great deal better off if they did not occur at all.

It seemis scarecly worth while enlumerating again all the argu-nents against cheating. They are known to every one before he

leaves his Preparatory School. The moral side of the question hasbeels stressed by every teacher since kindergarten davs. We shallpass over this phase test wve bring up arguments that Ilave by now-become so trite and hlack~neyed as to be distasteful. Every one hashwl- the fact thoroughly drilled into himi that cheating harms onlythe man guilty of the indescretio,7g, and helps no one.

There is another side at which we may glance, from the pointof view of one waho is just on the line b~etwveen passing and failinga course. Where there is any doubt as to whether or not a. mandeserves to pass, the marks of the class, at large often influencethe decision. A few high marks, obtained byr underhand miethods,might spell ruin and defeat for men who really earned a passinggrade. So we see that aside from the usulal objections to cheatingon the grounds that it is morally wrong, and harms him who doesit, there is another objectionthle danger of causing worthy honesttnen to fail because a few selfish men wrere thoughtless enough toforget that honesty is the keynote of Engineering.

SHOULDERS TO THE WHEEL

RECENTLY the Institute Committee approved tile holding of aRdrive in the Institute for the Beaver Baseball Team, which is

to become the Institute Baseball team if it is successful this season.The teamn las already secured $300) fromn the Advisory Council onlAthletics and needs $1200 more at least to complete its budget.|

It Alas nlot yet been decided whether the drive will be run bytthe team- itself, be the M.I.T.A.A. or by the Calumet Club. In anycase its success svill depend on student interest and student co-operation. To makse a successful drive for $1200 means that eachman in the Institute must give a little less than fifty cents.

Student opinion is strongly in favor of a baseball team to rep-resent the Institute against outside colleges. The Beaver team willplay- only college teams, and on its success or failure will dependthe future of varsity baseball at the Institute. If it succeeds, nextyear the money for a baseball team wvill probably be provided with-oult recourse to student solicitation.

Thlere is not much time left. The baseball season begins, eitherC0l \April 1 1 or on April 16vhich, is not yet certain. At any rate,wxhen the drive is started it wvill be necessary for everyone to put'hais shoulder to the wsheel in order to put over varsityr baseball at

DI PONT explosives do just whllatD is expected of themn everv time--because they are adapted to every

blasting requirement and always ofuniform quality.

To ensure that du Pont explosivesare of the highest quality, the duPont chemical engineers wnatch everymanufacturing step. By the carefulselection of all materials and the com-plete control of every stage of produIc-tion, the unvarying du Pont quality isassured. It is the maintenance of theuniform quality that has given the duPont Company the reputation it enjoystoday in the explosive field.

Certainty in blasting results is ob-tained by the selection of the -righttype of explosive and its proper use.

CHARMING COMEDY OFBARRIE'S AT COPLEY

Delightfully different is the comedy"Dear Brutus," by Sir J. M. Barrie, atthe Copley Theatre this week. The storyis of a twentieth century Puck who givesa group of people an opportunity to be-ginl life over again, in order that theymay not suffer forever for having takenone "wrong turning." The result of thisopportunity is what gives the play its

name; they all discover:"The fault, Dear Brutus, is not with our

stars"But with oursclcs. that aswe are under-

lings."As in all of Barrie's plays, the char-

acters occasionally forget their', properpersonalities ill order to deliver themn-selves of some of Barrie's wisdom. How-ever, the interest is not so much withthe individual characters as with the gen-cral case-the question of whether aleopard, 'if he could have a paint brush,wrould be able to change its spots.

The first act serves merely as intro-duction, and for that reason drags alittle. It is relieved f rom absolute me-diocrity by the acting of Victor Tandyas Lob, who declares himself the lastsurvival of Elizabethan England. Hejumps around just as one would imaginePuck to do, although three centuries oflife oil this earth seemn to 1lave madehim a trifle more serious than lie wvasill Shlakespeare's day.

wood where he gets a second chance hehas a daughter, and he is doing thework he loves, painting woodland scenes.The natural effect of the scene addedto the splendid acting of E. E. Clive andMiss Ediss makes it a scene to be longremembered.

Only slightly less effective is the finalscene in which the characters all realizethat even though they took the wrongturning, for most of them all roads leadto the same goal. The philanderer whoblames it on his wife philanders withhis wife when married to his "soul-mate." The butler who pilfers rings be-comes a "big business" mall and stealsoi2 a large scale. The woman who hasmade a wastrel of her husband has hadan opportunity- to marry the "other man"and is reduced to beggary. The lovableold idler, given a second chance, wasstill al idler, and proposed again toihis wife ill a touching scene.

RURAL DRAMA IS WELLPRESENTED AT ST JAMES

Owven Davis! "chronicle of a countrytown," "'Lazybones." termed by criticsa second "Lightriin' ' is excellently pre-sented at the St. James this week, andMr. Godfrey's production of thisBroadway success merits favorablecommnlent.

For twenty years "Lazybones,"shiftless but good-hearted, bears theaccusations of neighbors who chargehini w-ith being the father of a mother-less child which I-e claims to havefound in the brush while fishing alongthe creeks. His mother, Martha Tuttle,a typical, ksindly New England wom-an-cares for the child cheerfully duringthis time1, inspite of the idle villagegossip. The stern Mrs. Fanning, open-13r suspecting Lazybones, forbids herdaughter Agnes to keep company withhill any lollger. It finally develops thather other daughter, Ruth, whoinl Mrs.Fannling forces to marry the wealthyElmner Eallister, is the mother of thechild, and that Lazybonles, a truefrielld, has sacrificed his owvn reputa-tionl to shield her.

Johnl Collier's performnalce in the ti-tle role is perfect in ever) way. Asthe lazy. good-natured youth whowould rather "go fishin"' than w or};le gains the sympathy of his audienceat the start and holds their respect andattention throughout. His portrayal ofthe country character is never over-donle and his actions real rather thantheatrical ill every scene. Miss Hitzats Kit. the unfortunate child, was everentertaining and her final wooing ofLazybonles afforded a pleasing picture
