B()ard ()f C()ntr()1 Election day again- the day the continuing classes pick the

men who will serve them for the coming year. Among the class officers to be elected are six men I'd like

to put in a plug for. the Board of Control members. Don't forget that these are important offices with a great deal of responsi­bility. and they deserve good men to fill them.

With th appeal to elect good men to these jobs, let me thank you for the good Board of the past year. Their sobriety of thought and steadiness of character have advanced Caltech's Honor System through the course ot another year. They deserve a vote of your thanks. .

If you just exercise your judgment and elect to the Board new members equivalent to the old Board, that is all I can ask.

I.Thank you, Michael Callaghan Chairman, Board of Control

N() C()nger Entrants For the first time in its history, the Conger Peace Prize con­

test has no entrants this year. The lure of a $50 first prize or a $25 second prize seems to have attracted nd contestants in this annual Caltech oratorical competition.

Deadline Tomorrow The deadline for the contest i~ tomorrow. And still, as of

last Tuesday, no one is com~ing for the coveted honors. o This attitude of decreasing interest in extra-curricular acti"{i­ties is becoming more and more prevalent at Caltech. In the ASCIT elections last term, more offices were uncontested, than ever before. And at the class meetings Monday morning an .avrage of 15 or 20 students turned out for each.

Turn Out · for Activities The present war scare is responsible for part of the decrease

in interest, but most of it due to just laziness of the ·students themselves. Students of Caltech arisel You have nothing but a few bull sessions to lose. You have a world of experience to gain.

An Addition In last week's discussion of the aims and services of the

Caltech Beavers, a serious omission was made. Under the' aus­pices of the Beavers is operated the Institute guide service, ably led by Stan Groner, who this year assumed chairmanship from Kent Stratton. This organization sees to it that visitors to the campus are shown around and are informed of the purposes of the many projects and equipment on the grounds.

Anyone who has any questions concerning the Beavers, or suggestions for the organization's improvement, is invited to confer with the undersigned.

Clues on Color Presented A 't Friday Night Lecture

Vision is a matter of "taste-literally so; some people look at the world through rose colored glas~es-fr a good, practical reason; you can ,with your own eyes) see the blood vessels on the back of your eyeball; these "stranger than fiction" facts and theories were given to the public at last Friday's demonstration lecture by John Scott Campbell, speaking on color vision and photography.

with light in the "visible" range.

The actual mechanism of color reception is rather difficult to explain without the aid of dia­grams. Suffice it to say there are two types of vision-recep­tors at the back of the eyeball. the cones and the ' rods. The cones, which are concentrated at the center of the retina and thin out towards its edges, are used in strong ' light and for color vision; the way they work is not yet fully understood. The rods, on the other hand, are most dense near the edge of the retina pnd thin but towards the center.

This distribution accounts for many of the phenomena of night sight, for which the rods, rather than cones, are used. These rods are much fore sensitive to light than the cones, but are in­sensitive to differences of color. Fewer nerves are connected to a rod, too, so the rods give a less sharp picture. Night vision might be explained by these facts, with the following con­

There are several interesting and very important paints about this hand. The first is to notice that with the more obvious lead of the spade queen the contract can be made only if South trumps the third spade lead with the 10 or higher. The second is that with the openi.ng heart lead the hand was played in a very dangerous way, for South 'must infer from the opening lead that it is a singleton in which case the club finesse must not be tak­en until all of the trumps are ex­tracted. For if the finesse is tak-

Saturday certainly proved to be Oxy day in the SCIC. The Bengals demonstrated the i r well - advertised s t I' eng thin track by completely domina ting the conference meet. WhiJe J or­dan's spike powerhouse · must bring joy to most Oxy fans, there are many who feel th·at the Bengals' sudden rise into na­tional fame may have adverse effects. There have been opin· ions that interest in track in oth­er conference s c h a a 1 s has reached a new low.

A Chance for Everyon e

But what bothers me more than killing track in te rest in the scre is the effect on athletics at Oxy and possibly in other league colleges. The prime mo· tive of small-time intercollegiate athletics is to give the inexperi­enced fellow a chance to com­pete and to receive good coach· ing. But the second a s mall school moves into the big lime, then attention is ,given only to the more athletically inclined men,

And, fu rthermore, it is an easy step to draw the whole confer· ence into a s imilar athletic set­up. When one school begins to dominate the sports scene, other competi tors begin to concentrate more on enrolling athletes al\d spending more time in t raining those men to· bring home yic­tories.
