Beavers Hold Evening Meeting

Last Wednesday n ight the Beavers held the ir monthly eve· ning meet ing, this time being hosted by Dean L. W. J ones. The rain kept severa l members away, and t he group had to wa it for the Dabney de legation to elrop in from a dinner ex­change to have a quorum even approached,

• Schuste.· PreSides

Prexy Woods was on the a il· ing lis t, so second man Schuster took over the guid ing reins. The fi rs t item of discussion was the High School Orientation Pro­gram, w hich has been going full blast this las t month. Reports indicate that in general the ef· forts to s pread the good word about Tech around "sunny" Southern Cal have been well re­ceived. With the exception of one school, the Techmen h a v e been given warm welcomes and ample opportunity to Inform pro­spective college students abou t science in general, and aJso m en · tion that Tech is nat just a gr ind.

AU T h is and M ore

However plans were made to carryon the good work n ext yea r, and also to promote visits from interested schools this year , to give them an inside glance at what Tech is like, The vis its will inclu de a meal at the student h ouses whenever pos­s ible, to add color. Muehlberger immediately stated that the vis­itors should be kept as far from F leming as possible, but the cold s tare he received from HG a a n" Saltman refrigerated him for the rest of the discussion.

Refe rees and ticket takers were next on the list, with Schuster announcing that Don Hibbard had taken the job of procuring inter house referees, and hoping that not too many mix-ups would occur.

1) You must have a n adequate At Fourth Y Fl'reSl'de bui ld a sa ilpla ne a nd a fo rmel standard by which to choose. holder of the world e ndu ra nce

2) You must have something to choose from.

Most people, the speaker said, rea lize the importance of t he firs t fac tor, but very few people pro­vide themselves with the second necessi ty . The a verage man goes with only six d iffren t girls be­fore marriage, and that number is wholly inadequa te.

E ngagement

On a s tatis tical basis, he said, a long acquaintance, a long en­gqgement, a nd a formal rnarriage ceremony a re big helps toward a s uccessful m a rriage. The impor t· ance of the e ngagemen t period ca nnot be overlooked, s ince it permits a fina l decision as to whether or not you wish to mar­ry, it provides a period during which the couple can adjust to one another's tastes, and ft serves a s a st imulus to the maturation of the individuals in question.

Dr. Popenoe discussed premari­tal intercourse, both during en­gagement and otherwise , a t con­siderable le ngth , and n ot only gave concrete reasons why this practice does noth ing but h a rm to a subsequent marr iage, but went further by presenting sta­tis tica l proof that such inte r­course very orten ruins later marriage.

D iscussion

The last portion of the lectu re was devoted to a discu ssion of the barriers agains t large fam· Hies which are impased by the present economic system, and a poss ible solution to the problem.

Exchanges Mark Blacker ~eekend

Men of B lacker enjoyed one of the most successfu I exchanges in months as members of the fairer sex from the ra nks of campus lovelies here at Tech a nd John Muir joined us for dancing last Friday night.' Thanks to Dr. and Mrs. Kyropolous , Blacker House was in troduced, a t the same time, to a piping hot varie­ty of spiced tea that hit the spot.

Believing tha t variety is the spice of life, the social commit­tee has decided to leave t h is weekend free, with the exception of a Satu rday' night Open House

Shavings ... From The Board

Probably by now everyone has been requested personally to COD­tribute to the Infantile Paralys­is Fund, and each man is very likely asking just what happened to the decision of the ASCIT Board of Directors prohibiting further personal solicitation. The answer is that the Board, after receiving additional relative in· formation and opinions, reversed its decision pertaining to t his drive.

For instance, it was brought to the Board's attention that the Infantile Paralysis Fund has reo cently contributed the sum of $300,000 to the Institute for reo serach. The Community Chest, also among those drives on the curtailed list, directly benefitted many of the married students living in the village.

It was also brought to the at· tention of the Board that the In­stitute authorities feel very strongly about maintaining good public relations. It was pointed out that with Caltech constantly encouraging endowments of con· siderably larger sums, the latest decision of the Board was not quite appropriate. Then after the public sees little (sob) Margaret O'Brien cry her heart out in the

This group is composed of the heads of the various de· partments and committees, such <4'3 luncheon clubs, forums, fire­sides, and of men that, have par­ticular responsibilities, such as publicity, the book exchange, and so forth.

Out of their weekly Thursday evening meetings come recom­mendations and suggestions on matters ranging from the major concerns of the Y down to the small details of program plan· ning. These meeLings are by no means closed sessions, and any­one interested in the organiza­tion and programming of the Y will be most welcomed any Thursday evening at 7:25 in the \Y lounge.
