According to Bob Ripley,Lopez' digits move over the key-board at the rate of 2,200 notesper minute. His technique consistsof -transposing the melody to theleft hand while playing the accom-panimnent with his right, withoutreducing the speed of the piece.His famous fingers are insured for$100,0:00.

'a Dean's ListDoes Not IncludeNavy StudentsA total of 533 civilian students

had term ratings of 3.50 or betterduring the past summer term, it wasrevealed with the release of the lat-est Dean's List this week. No Navystudents have been included in thelist nor have class percentages beenfigured to include these students.

Owing to the fact that theirs wasthe largest undergraduate class atthe Institute, the freshmen led withthe greatest number of men on thelists, 227, vhich was 45.4% of theirclass. They also led with the great-est per cent of men on the firstdean's list with 9.1%. The Seniorsled with the greatest per cent ofmen on the lists with 53.8%, 121men. The Sophomores and Juniorshad 47.3%0 and 45% of their class onthe lists respectively.

The purpose of the Dean's list isto show students about where theystand academically in relation tothe rest o'f their class and also togive some indication to preparatoryschools of how well their graduatesare doing.

New Draft De erment RulingsAre Released; Seniors DeferredFor 30 Days After Graduation

New Selective Service regulations which sharply restrict the defer-ment of college students will become -effective on February 15.

Under the provisions of the new national directive No. 33-6, provi-

sions are made for the creation of a national quota of 10,000 studentswho may be considered for deferment if they are studying in certainprofessional fields, which are listed below. The quotas for each educa-tional institution will not be established until February 15 and theprecedure for the selection of students for these quotas has not yet|been clarified.

Those sections of the new directivre which relate to Technologylstudents follow:

|"A. General Policy on Student Deferment:| "1. Change in policy.-The current needs in connection with the

war -effort require a change in the policy governing the occupational|deferment of students. The Army and Navy Specialized Training Pro-|gram is providing for the specialized training of a large number of|men. This number will furnish a supply of persons in scientific and|specialized fields and certain professions adequate for the needs of the|armed forces. Therefore, students occupationally deferred should be|limited to a number sufficient to meet civilian needs in war production|and in support of the war effort.

| "2. Student quota.-It is necessary that students in certain profes-|sional fields be considered for continued deferment. In certain scientific|and specialized fields students who will graduate on or before July 1,,|1944, should be considered for derferment until graduation. Nationalquotas have been determined in accordance with which occupational|deferment may be granted to undergraduate students in certain scientificland specialized fields, the undergraduate students in preprofessional|courses of study. The quotas and the procedures by which they are|controlled and certified to the local board are set forth in Sub-Part E

RUSH WEEKExaminations will be over on Saturday, February 26, and

most men would ordinarily be homeward bound on the firstavailable train. This year there will be no such departure formany men because rush week, sanctioned or not, will start onMonday. Fraternity men, the only large civilian living groupat the Institute, will enjoy practically no vacation!

The plan submitted to the Interfraternity Conference bythe Quattrochi-headed committee would have permitted thesemen to have had almost a week's vacation. The proposal hingedon the with-holding of the list of incoming freshmen, copiesof which are usually distributed to the fraternities by the Insti-tute. Had these lists been with-held rushing would not havebeen possible before the date scheduled by I.F.C. It would havebeen futile therefore for the members of any house to remainin Boston in order to "get the jump" on the other houses.

The new method was never to be put to test, however.Why? Because a small minority placed their own selfish inter-ests before the good of the whole. This self-centered handfulsuccessfully blocked the scheme and rush week will now con-sume mid year vacation. Some three hundred and fifty menwill lose the pleasure and rest to be derived from an eight-daysojourn at home in order to rush less than eighty freshmen!!And the groups responsible for this narrow-minded course are,in the words of the chairman of the Interfraternity Conference,"to be commended for their initiative!"

This lack of cooperation on the part of the members of theI.F.C. serves as a striking illustration of the reason that theannual formal dance is the only important act of the Conference.In the difficult days that lie ahead of the fraternities at Tech-nology the I.F.C. can be a very useful organization, but if it isgoing to get no snore cooperation from its members than it hasin this instance it might do well to appoint a dance committee(to carry on its most useful service) and cease functioning.

A CHANCE TO HELPYou have probably read of the tremendous increase in

juvenile delinquency since the start of the war. There have beenarticles in newspapers about the rise in the crimes of youth;there was a feature article in Life two weeks ago, a March of Tingefilm titled Ywith inl Crisis, and a United States Senate investiga-tion headed by Senator Pepper. Conservative figures put theincrease in arrests in 1943 at 20 per cent above 1942, while boomcities like San Diego report increases up to 300 per cent indelinquency.

The usual reply after hearing these figures is either "Sowhat?" or "W&eli, what can I do about it?" In this case there issomething you can do about it, and some people have seen fitto do it. The answer is to strike at the basic causes of thisdelinquency. The easiest course is to help in providing betterrecreational facilities for teen-aged youths.

Local students are playing an active part by volunteeringas club leaders for youth groups. The Boys' Work Divisionof the T.C.A. estimates that about twenty Technology studentsare now engaged in some capacity as leaders of young peoplethroughout the city.

These men deserve to be commended for their work, butthere is still a need for more men in positions like these. Surelythere are other students at the Institute who can afford to give upa fewr hours one evening la week to do their bit toward a betterpost war period.

Bill Scott, permanent Secretary-Treasurer of the Class of 1944, for-mer General Manager of Technique,and the man who recently reorgan-ized the Gridiron Society after ithad been dormant for months, has"been in the Army all his life," eventhough he's been wearing the olivedrab only since April. Son of a WestPoint army officer, he has led thelife of a "typical army brat," mov-ing from camp to camp, seldom stay-ing in one place for more than afew years. He has lived in manyplaces throughout the country, in-cluding Dallas, Texas, which he nowcalls "home," and Hawaii.

Bill was born at West Point sometwenty-one years ago. He attendedthree different high schools, finallygraduating from the Little Rock(Arkansas) High School, where hewas an enthusiastic member of thefootball team. Bill wanted to fol-low in his father's footsteps and goto West Point, but he was rejectedbecause of poor eyesight. Then hespent a year at Hendrix College inConway, Arkansas, 'getting a bit ofsocial life before buckling down tothe grind at Tech."

Member of Sigma ChiWhen he entered Technology in

the fall of 1940, Bill pledged SigmaChi Fraternity, of which he is nowthe president. Continuing the in-terest in athletics which he devel-oped in high school, he was a mem-ber of the freshman Field Day foot-ball team, a member of the gymteam, and a member of the rifleteam. As if that wasn't enough, hestarted working on Technique, andbegan climbing the ladder whichthree years later brought him upto the position of General Managerof the yearbook. He also managedto finish the term scholastically un-scathed, which he considered quitean achievement at the time.

A mechanical engineer, Bill be-came a member of the AmericanSociety of Mechanical Engineers.He also joined the Society of Amer-ican Military Engineers when heenlisted in the Corps of Engineersbranch of the Advanced R.O.T.C.During M4 Junior year, Bill coachedthe freshman Field Day footballteam and became a member of theBeaver Key Society. At the sametime he had progressed to the posi-tion of Organizations Editor ofTechnique.

Sent to Ft. BelvoirBill's Senior year was spent

mainly at Fort Belvoir, Virginia,where he was stationed from Juneto October. Before he had to leavefor Fort Belvoir, Bill became presi-dent of his fraternity, General Man-ager of Technique, Secretary of the

the antics of the cast.The outstanding performer was

easy to spot. He was, of course,Lawrence Van Ingen, 6-45, who puta great deal of warmth and humorinto his portrayal of SheridanWhiteside, the eccentric, self-cen-tered wit who "came to dinner" atthe home of the Stanley family ina small Ohio town, broke his hipon the icy front porch, and thenmonopolized the house for his work.Whiteside was on the stage through-out nearly all the play and was atmost times the center of attraction,carrying on his complex aff airs withthe aid of Maggie Cutler, his secre-tary, played very competently byJoan T. Rothwell, G.

All the other parts were playedvery well. Outstanding was theportrayal of editor Bert Jeffersonby John T. Fitch, 2-46, especiallyduring the "drunlk scene" in thethird act. Marion Ferris, 10-44, dida good job as seductress LorraineSheldon. Also deserving of specialmention are the acting of RobertW. Connor, 2-46, who played thepart of Dr. Bradley, the easy-going,genial small-town doctor who caredfor Whiteside during his confine-ment, and of Jasper D. Ward, 10-44,who played several small bit parts,putting a great deal of enthusiasmand -acting ability into all of them.

On the whole, Dramashop de-serves a great deal of credit for theperformance. The acting was ex-cellent, the lighting and set vrerygood. Certainly, if this perform-ance is any indication of the Drama-shop's ability, its future endeavorsare worthy of much greater supportby the Technology student body.

but it just wasn't their day to

shine.

In the last tilt that night, Pi

Lambda Phi won their second

straight by defeating Delta Upsilon

27 to 18. Much credit is due to the

plucky Pi Lambda Phi team which

was earlier crushed by S. A. E. and

now has come back in great fashion

to take their last two games. They

played their best game to date as

Schields scored 10 points, and

Frankel and Marshal scored six

each. The D. U. team was in the

game all the way, and it was a

close game that they lost even with

'Martin and Shuitte scoring six

points each.

'VWorcester PolyAnd Camp Thomas

Weekend VictorsThe Beaver quintet had a tough

week; the results of the last week-end include two losses to WorcesterPoly, 30-47, and Camp Thomas, 44-55. Both contests were away. Onlyone game with Trinity away on nextWednesday night should give theboys a little rest.

We can say that both games wereclose -at times. The Beavers justseemed to jump off the deep endand then suddenly play good ball.In the first half of the Worcestercontest, which was watched by ahuge Worcester gallery, Tech wastrailing by only two points. Andthen the second half was a night-mare in which the rival engineersout-scored M.I.T. by :fifteen points.

Reverse True In Navy GameIn the Navy game at Davisville,

R. I., however, the situation was re-versed. The boys were trailing bytwelve points at the half, only tomake a comeback and play the sail-ors even for the rest of the evening.All of which proves the truth of CalTaft's explanation, "We are just -notconsistent."

In the Worcester fray LannyLandwehr and Don Walsh playedhard ball during that last half whenthe rest of the Beavers just fellasleep at the switch. The boys wereout-played under both baskets,though, as the home club had thegame under complete control all theway.

Team Faces Trinity WednesdayThis Trinity team which faces

M.I.T. on its home court in Hart-ford, Conn., will be no soft touch.Bolstered by service personnel, thismember of the Little Three will playonly one game against Tech.

In the first game of the evening,a powerful Chi Phi quintet humbledTheta Delta Chi by the score of 50to 15. The Chi Phi's were againpaced by Pete Kyros, who has beena consistent high scorer all season.He outdid himself this time by mak-

eing 26 points.In the nightcap, the dangerous

.Sigma Chi team of the Beacon St.Leayu had no trouble in defeatingPhi Mu Delta to the tune of 39 to12. The Sigma Chi's led by theirstars Spoerl and BEreck, who made14 and 10 po~ints respectively, dis-

, played their usual good form in tak-ing the game. As evidenced by the

ascore, the game was, one-sided al-, though Phi Mu D:elta, paced by

QUINTET UNPREDICTABLEThe most unpredictable outfit at

Tech is the Beaver quintet, whichseems to look like a different teameach night it takes the floor. Har-rassed by disinterested student sup-port and also the loss of CoachGlancey, the boys have showedplenty of spark, but never havebeen able to play a steady game.Of course, no team can lose a coachand not feel the effects, especiallyat the mid-season marker. SinceEnsign Glancey's transfer fromTech, Coach Henry MacCarthy andformer captain George Marakashave shared the post. How wellthis combination will work out re-mains to be seen.

MILLROSE GAMES NEARThe M. I. T. tracksters are look-

ing ahead now to the Millrosegames in New York on Feb. 5; that'sonly two weeks ahead now. Oscaris mum at present, but he certainlyhas a large squad working out atBriggs nightly.

A few intramural meets havekept the bobs in competitive trim.

Tomorrow a few trackmen aregoing over to the Boston YMCA fora warm-up. We see that Oil Doddswill be on hand with Art Schwartzand Ken Joseph attempting tocatch the flying preacher.

FOILEMEN HEGAVE PLANS

The Tech fencers should have apretty fair season from the reportswe've heard. With a whole troupeof returning men, manager DickLopez seems Ito think his team canrepeat last year's undefeated receord. And that's saying somethingwith both West Point and Annapolison the schedule.

Crew Work-OutsProgress Favorably

For the past two weeks the Techcrew squad has been working outon the Myachines in the boathouse.This season's turnout numbersaround 1,25 men of which about100 are Navy men. In spite ofthe numbers however, Coach BobMoch says the squad still lacks twoimportant elements: coxswains andinen over 170 pounds in weightand six feet in height.

'According to Bob Moch it is hardto tell at this time just how thecrew is shaping up, judgement onthat will have to wait until theboats take the water on the firstday of next term. At the presenttime, however, the squad is get-ting in shape for the coming sea-son and Coach Moch says that themembers of the squad are showingplenty of fight and spirit.

Coxswain Needed

In issuing his call for coxswainsBob iMoch emphasized that thisposition can be filled by anyone whoweighs less thtan 130 pounds.
