to the orchestra when they playedfor the Military Ball of the Univer-sity of Iowa. Tickets for the affairwere put on sale a day before the

Starts on PianoAlthough Brown began taking

piano lessons at the age of eight,it wasn't until he picked up hisbrother's saxophone that he firstfound an interest in music. He en-tered the Conservatory of Music inIthaca in 1926, getting training inarranging, composing and othertechnical subjects. He lead a band!at the New York Military Academy,|where he went until 1932, and thenattended Duke University. He cameout of school with a band and hasbeen leading a band ever since.His real break came in 1940 wh~enhe was booked at Michael Todd'sTheater-Cafe in Chicago. Thencame the Log Cabin engagementwhich put Les into every home inthe country via radio.

With Les Brown now at the topof the band list, those who knowhim say that he is still ("he affable fellow he was before he became wellIknown.

Sophomore Class of 1938 in a closebattle.

The score of Field Days to date isnine won by the freshmen and.thirty-two won by the Sophomores.Only once in forty-two years has aSophomore class which won in itsfreshman year lost to the incomingfreshmen.

"The best class ever in FieldDay", said Oscar, "was the Class of1934, which in its freshman yearestablished the football record of40-0 and followed that as Sopho-mores by creating the relay recordof 4 minutes and 47.6 seconds. Theyalso broke the record for tug-of-warby having the fastest pull of anyclass, which was 14.4 seconds.

Reminiscing further, Oscar said,"The closest glove fight I ever sawwas last year when the freshmenbeat the Sopomores by a matter ofseven gloves, thereby winning FieldDay."

Hedlund's predictions are basedchiefly upon the previous perform-ance of the Class of 1945 and uponthe lack of interest the freshmenhave shown at the rallys. His ob-servations, on the field and trackcourses also weighed heavily in tilefinal count.

As means of alleviating the condition at least in part, wesuggest the following to the T.C.A. as it embarks on its 1942drive for funds:

That the sign boards advertising the contributions of thevarious residential groups be abolished. We think that it is un-wise to shame one group into increasing its donations by comn-paring it unfavorably with another. At least one fraternitywithheld its entire subscription last year until the last day of thedrive merely because it wanted no such financial publicity.

COME ACROSS -II

The student-f aculty committee has set Wednesday, No-vember 4, as the date of its hearing on student suggestions forimprovement of the Senior class' accelerated summer sessio'n.At the end of the first speed-up session attended by the Class of1943, the committee asked membrers of this class and the facultyto submit recommendations for the betterment of the summerterms.

From the voluntary contributions of these men, the stu-dent-f aculty committee hopes to uncover the serious errors thatmay have been committed in planning and administration of thefirst summer session and to make suggestions which will aid inthe correction of these- errors. Petty complaints and destructivecriticismhave no place in its program. Cognizance of this factand a careful critical survey of the fourteen weeks of summerschool by the Class of 1943 wrill bring about the necessary im-provements which will make the summer session more pleasantaind more effective for the members of future wartime classes.

TO A MORE POPULAR DRIVEAny organization which depends even partially upon pub-

lic donations for its operating funds usually finds Itself in aIticklish and unenviable situation. It must conduct its campaignfor money in such a way that the numerous donors will not feelthat their gifts are solicited in mandatory fashion. It must con-duct its other business in a manner that does not even remotelysuggest mismanagement or misuse of the donated funds.

The T.C.A., as it begins its annual drive, occupies that verydelicate position. And, althou gh it performs good and necessaryduties, it has created a certain amount of ill will in the pastamrong, undergraduates by its conduct of the campaign and bywhat some students believe to be misapplication of the donatedmoney.

It is particularly difficult for the T.C.A. in its zealous drivefor money to draw the line where conservative respectable soli-citation ends and forceful unavoidable requisitioning begins. Itis equally difficult to use the money so obtained in a mannerthat will please all donors and not arouse the suspicion of a fewthat their donations-were improperly handled.

renewed,attentionthe work

stiff workouts for the last few days.Yesterday the teams practiced re-lay starts and turns. Today, withthe results of elections for captainsof both teams announced, the twoteams will begin functioning asunits.

A big crowd of spectators is allthat is needed to set the stage forthe duel on Friday. The meet, asCoach Smith says, will be a closeone and should provide plenty ofexcitement for the spectators.

"Cassidy and Henze ran awayfrom the Harvard and Tufts fresh-men to win easily," said Oscar Hed-lund, coach of the team remarkingabout the race held at Tufts Courselast Friday afternoon, October 23.

1arvard started fifteen men,Tufts ten, and Tech had only fivereport so the final score was Har-vard 37, Tufts 43, and Tech 46. "Ifwe had a few more men," said Oscar,"we could have won the race."

Cassidy took the race in the fasttime of 15:54.4 and he was followedclosely by Henze with a 15:57. Bothboys have the possibility of going toNew York to run in the I C 4-Afreshman cross-country run over theVan Courtlandt Park course, inNew York.

In the varsity race, run on thesame day, against Tufts College,Tech lost its first cross-country raceof the season by the score of 21-34.

But Bob Miller, captain of theTech team, took second place toPhillips of Tufts, who made the fourmile course in 20 minutes and 3.7seconds. Bob's time was 20 minutesand 44 seconds.

Soccermen BowTo Brown U. 2-0

Last Saturday afternoon theTech soccer team lost its secondgame of the season to the BrownUniversity squad at Providence.The final score was 2-0.

The Beaver eleven lined up asfollows: Rosenburg, goal; Lovenand Libby, fullbacks; Cloverdale,Carpenter, and Chapin, halfbacks;Slawson, Heckle, Abbott, Momose,and Ihde, forwards. Substituteswere Mc~aulland, Lavalle.

M1ore Attend Than AreAnticipated By Club

"The dance was a big success, ex.ceeding our best expectations," saidJohn R. Mitchell speaking of thedance held by the 5:15 Club lastSaturday evening in the Club'sroom in the basement of WalkerMemorial. "We had intended tolimit the dancers to fifty couples,"he continued, "but due to the greatturnout we were forced to admitmore."

Mitchell, Robert H. Mayne, '45,Paul L. Bishop, '45, Howard Weaver,'44, Melvin Becker, '44, and HenryD. Lawton, Jr., '44, chairman, com.prised the committee in charge ofthe dance.

Girls from Katherine Gibbs,Emanual, and Framingham Teach-ers College attended the dance andwere met on the dance floor by theusual large number of males pres-ent at Technology's popular ac-quaintance dances. Cider anddoughnuts were served during theintermission. Music for -the dancewas supplied by recordings includ-ing fifteen new ones bought for theoccasion.

cordillg to this year's rulings, the

Debating Society considers as var-

sity debates only those with thae

"top-notch colleges," regardless of

where the debates are held.

On its annual Fall Trip, whichwill be held from November 11 to

November 15 this year, the Debating

Society will hold varsity debateswith eight New England colleges.

The purpose of the drive is to

encourage every member of the In-

stitute to make some contribution

to the T.C.A. The Christian Associa-

tion is run on a budget made up

wholly of contributions, and in

order that each of the departments

receives its budget and operates

most efficiently, it is necessary to

obtain the whole-hearted coopera-

tion of every person connected with

Tech-nology. This year's total budget

is $3,740.

The drive officially begins next

Monday, November 2. At that time

drive workers will make the rounds

of the dormitories, fraternities, and

other groups. Beginning Tuesday,

the free lancers are to approach

every person seen around the In-

stitute without a T.C.A. button.

Winning three of the six events, and gaining a tie in a fourth, theClass' of 1945 this afternoon became the seventh Institute class towin both of its Field Day battles. Last year, '44 went down to defeatby a 9 to 6 score, and today '46 was nosed out 11 to 8. By defeatingthe frosh, the Sophs fulfilled track coach Oscar Hedlund's predictionas to the winner. This is the seventh straight year that Oscar hascorrectly predicted the outcome of the Field Day struggle.

From the start of the basketball game to the final gun of theglove fight, this afternoon's events were those of the most thrillingField Day contest in recent years. What the frosh lacked in experiencethey made up in numbers and spirit, and had they got a few breaksthey would have won handily.

First event of the afternoon was the basketball game in which theMarakas-coached frosh team went ahead to an early lead, and at half-time was leading 14 to 9. During the second half this lead was extended

to 21 to 13, but th e Soph team,coached by Tom Dolan, startedclicking and tied the score at 21-21early in the last quarter. rThefrosh went ahead 23-21 on twobeautiful foul shots, but the Soph;managed to score twice more be-fore the game ended. Final bas-ketball score-Sophomores 25, fresh-men 23.

Second event was the swimmingmeet, in which the Sophs againshowed the excellent swimmingform that gave them a Tech rec-ord in last year's medley relay, andthey won both the medley and free-style relays, to give the Class of1945 a 6-0 lead over the frosh beforethe afternoon had really got underway.

The frosh tuggers managed towin the first pull of the tug-of-war,and frosh spirit heightened notice-ably.

READY, WILLING, AND ABLEThe newest event in the age old THE TECH-VooDoo

feud, a three-man race between the managing boards over themilitary science department's obstacle course, will bring to ananti-climactic end the athletic events of Field Day weekend to-morrow at 2:30 P.M.

The obstacles as they will be encountered by the competitorsare a 2 I/2 foot hurdle, a 4 foot vault, a series of three staggeredfences, a 7 foot wall, a 4 foot broad jump over a six foot ditch,and a zigzagging rail walk. The entire course covers a distanceof one hundred yards and is negotiated by members of theR.O.T.C. corps in an average of thirty seconds.

The obstacle race will be the first competition between thetwo publications of the fall season. It will be followed on Sat-urday, November 21', by the football game steeped in the tra-dition of twenty years of intra-publication rivalry.

We have devised a line-up for tomorrow's contest whichwe hope will be satisfactory to Phos and his cohorts. That line-upexcludes the possibility of any newly and temporarily electedmembers of the VooDoo managing board from participating inthe race as has happened so often in the past.

So the line-up is ready, the course is waiting, and the stageis set. Remember, Phos, 2:30 tomorrow afternoon behind therifle range. Oh yes, good luck!

Suicide PactAmong VooDooBoards PlannedProf. Magoun SavesInstitute From RuiBy Heroic Measures

Plunged into despondencyrepeated failure of thehumor magazine to sell

by theM.I.T.copies

among the student body, the com-bined boards of the Voodoo havebeen discovered as co-signers of oneof the largest suicide pacts of his-tory. The suicide plan, despite allprecautions of secrecy, was divulgedwhen James Spitz, Managing Editorof the magazine, known familiarlyto students of M.I.T. as "that dirtyrag", became hysterical during thecourse of a recent "reefer" partyat which he was a guest. Alarmedby the further disgrace about to beoccasioned the Institute by mem-bers of the periodical, Prof. F. Alex-ander Magoun hurried to the sceneof the proposed debacle and,; bycoaxing the fifteen odd members ofthe magazine with bottle corks, ledthem into a small room. The doorwas quickly bolted, following whichthe heroic Magoun escaped througha tiny window eight 'feet above thelevel of the floor.

Although no official sources haveyet revealed the ultimate destiny ofthe now confined malefactors, astrong rumor has been circulatingto the effect that the Instituteauthorities will place the fifteenprisoners under the supervision ofthe state psychiatric hospital. Sincethis proposal has been circulatingin rumor form for a number o:years, however, it is possible thatthis course will not be followed.

The exposed plot was not altogether unsuspected among informed sources, since the poor circulation and insolvent financiacondition of the magazine have lecmany of the prominent M.I.T. activity men to wonder about the continued survival of such an unstableinstitution. These conditions werefor a brief time, eliminated by theenforced sale of Voodoo among thestaff members at ten dollars a copyThis practice was discontinuecwhen a purchaser lost his life in at

The number of Voo Doo's neces-sary to fill the bottom four feet ofthe pool was not given out by either

tz" Daniels stated that onlyause he felt a moral obligationstraighten out the unfortunateial situation at Technology haddecided to sacrifice some of thee badly needed by his other aca-

2nic and extra-curricular activi-S to undertake the handling ofs important venture personally.

Mr. Daniels downed a Whaler'sckup and continued the interview.Is diction and syntax were a trifleirred, and his left eye closed and

opened at regular intervals, but heassured the interviewer that he wasalmost through. "Rowevitch da Hieumph I gottavitch goski Eec yuk-men Hitler goo ga Ching pooeyLang glops oya moy gooo goooo."

At that moment a report arrivedto the effect that the Acting Headof the department in Daniels' ex-pected frequent absences to super-vise production control at theStatler Bar, would be Mr. No-Spik-a-Da Schultz from South Boston.

When the bartender had pulledMr. Daniels from under the table,the interview was concluded asDaniels stated: "You're a fine figgerof a woman, Miss Brunnhilde. Don'tlet your primitive passions rise."

SPRINGWith a sneer and a twist of his

mustache,And a nervous shift of his eyes,

He poured the poison into the soup,Saying, wait 'til the hero dies!

He was gone from the room in aninstant,

The hero appeared about thenAnd, giving his broth a casual whiff

Remarked: "Drat, it's poisonagain."

The hero, unfazed, sat down in hischair

And gulped down his soup with asplish.

Dismayed, he found that the poisonhe'd drunk

Had eaten half through the dish.

With a burp and a gurk and a hicand a cough,

He arose to his feet a new man.But once in front of a looking glass,

He saw he was turning light tan!

His hues became brighter-a redand a pink,

Then duller, a blue and a green.He ended up with a hiss and a pop,

And a color he'd never seen.

Boats ProvideTransportation

The Technology chapter of SigmaNu fraternity yesterday opened asystem of river transportation alongthe Charles River for the conveni-ence of the freshmen roomers whoare staying at the Brookline baseof the organization.

Due to shortage of vital materialsthe organization was forced to usediscarded gin crates and beer cansas a source of material for theboats. Transportation to and fromthe river line is accomplished bymeans of pogo sticks and "Kanga-roo shoes". The system will be usedon week-ends for moonlight cruiseswith the belles of Brookline.

In an effort to offer competitionto the river line, other Brooklinefraternity houses have started bur-rowing a subway tunnel to the In-stitute, using beer bottle necks inlieu of now unavailable shovels.

The frosh held in midfieldafter the Sophs had advancedthirty yards in the opening plays ofthe third quarter. From there onthe game was even, although thefreshmen threatened in the lastquarter. The result of the gamewas a 0-0 tie, giving each class twopoints toward its Field Day total.

The frosh won the third and de-ciding pull of the tug-of-war, givingthem the three points allotted forthis event. Then the two classesrolled up their sleeves, tightenedup their belts and prepared to"engage in combat."
