S sWe Like itCOLONIAL THEATER"Too True to be Good"

A new play by George Bernard Shaw is=of course, an event; of late, any productiorwith Miss Beatrice Lillie in the cast is ofgeneral interest. If the combination isfortunate, the Colonial should be turningthem away.

We fear, however, that the combinationis not very well made. The play is atypical "G.B.S." production. The plotis somewhat tenuous, the characteriza.tions excellent, though theatrical, thedialogue alternately brilliant, humorousand deadly boring, and the action zero,This type of play does not give Miss Lilliean opportunity to display her talents tothe utmost. The part of a chambermaidmasquerading as a countess is, in generalsuited to her, but not a chambermaidgiven to weighty ponderings upon the ter.rible state of the postwar generation.

In spite of this, the production presentsan evening of entertainment of a highorder. This is due in no small part to theexceedingly able cast. There is really nostar; all the members of the cast do theirparts to perfection. Miss Lillie's best spotis in the first act, where she appears as anurse to a chronic invalid who is ill onlhin the minds of her doting relatives. MissHope Williams makes the part the mostlifelike one in the play.

We shall not give the plot here, for itwould seem impossible, and might spoil.the play for you. Suffice it to say thatHugh Sinclair, as Beatrice's young man;Ernest Cossart as an English Colonel, andLeo G. Carroll as Private Meek all makeit almost believable.

Those who like Mr. Shaw's ruminationsand preachings about the sad state of theworld through the mouths of his char-acters will immensely enjoy the play.Those of us with less weighty intelligenceswill find it a bit hard to sit through theinterminable preachings waiting for theoccasional gems. It is worthwhile, -though.

At last the Lounger has that nasty,black old alley-cat "Phos," by the tail.Whether or not the stupid beast will havethe brains to yowl is entirely beside the

point. His scrawly tail is being twistedanyway, and here's hoping he feels it allthe way up his spine. It ought to makehis ears twitch just th'e slightest little bit,though the facts, taken from past observa-tion of that horrible example of a peram-bulating mouse cage, indicate that hehasn't the esthetic feeling required to indi-

cate the presence of a flea.

To give a little of the history behind thegreat revelation- the Lounger has beenlooking for something on the Voo Doo boysfor about that long now. All through thefirst term this year, regular trips to thehome kennel netted nothing but a few tid-bits concerning circulation. If you wantto see something funny, just go ask thehead man for an explanation of how comethe sales have been dropping off steadilysince last September. If you get hit witha brick, a dead mouse, or a few mustypieces of old cheese, don't come complain-ing to your old uncle.

Getting on with the story in hand, theLounger wandered into the print shop theother evening where THE TECH, and hesuspects, all the other Institute publica-tions, are printed. He got discussing withthe chief man down there just what theywould set up to be printed. After askingabout those things, he said, "What do youdo about off-color stuff that comes in?Are there any limits to your work?" Theanswer was extremely short, and very,very pointed. Mr. Prat~, the night man-ager, said simply, "We print the VooDoo." Ha, ha. Somebody knows whatit's all about.

Having given Phos what the Loungerconsiders the answer supreme, other andgreener pastures call to the caustic, vitri-olic spirit of the Scourge of Walker. Justa few of the inside facts on the Sophomore

lest might keep a few of you guys awakein the back rows during lectures.

It still looks as though it would be a bithard to crash that Sophomore dance, too.The boys at the door are going to stampeach and every man with a nice little rub-ber affair and some good indelible ink.Just what stamp will be used is somethingthe Lounger isn't tellin', but his offering tothe eager scrounger is that a governmentjob might help. One of those "U. S.Government-Inspected and Passed"things they use on meat might do. Gawdknows there rill be plenty on the hoofwhen the doors open.

Further information leads to the con-clusion that there won't be much per-centage in trying to get in through thewindows, either. It will cost just as muchthat way as coming in by the regular doorsand being dignified. The Sophs plan tohave a mob of ticket collectors at thewindows and each climber will have tocough up anyvay.

Prom Girls were plenty scarce in theearly part of the week, according to re-ports from the first assistant- who wearsstriped underpants in case you see himaround-and the laddies had troublegetting things straight.

Fog PenetrationBy Colored LightsTo Solve Problem

Microscopic Examination ShowsRelative Humidity Not

100 Per Cent

Penetrating murky fog, such as thatwhich so often blankets Technology and

its surroundings, is one of the importantscientific problems of the present time,bearing as it does, aviation's need of sucha penetration. m Work on this problem byMr. Henry G. Houghton, Jr., and Dr.Julius A. Stratton, has led to some valu-able discoveries which may lead to thefinal discovery of reliable methods ofpiercing the fog.

By allowing fog to drift across greasedslides, Dr. Strattom and Mr. Houghtonwere able to observe through microscopesthe characteristics of different fogs. Itwas found that all fogs consist of minutedroplets of water clinging to equallyminute particles of various substances suchas dust, or salt particles from seawater.Measurement of the size of the particlesshowed that while every fog contains them

in varying sizes, there is a predominanceof any one size in any given fog.

Effective penetration of the fogs is bestsecured by colored lights whose rays areleast scattered by the particles. Thus,large particles pass red light best, whilegreen light is more easily transmitted by afog made up of small particles.

Other developments of the researchwere that the humidity of fogs is not al-ways 100 per cent, and that the collectionof water on salt particles thrown up bysea waves were responsible for most seafogs. It is believed that the tiny saltparticles on which the fog collects are

hygroscopic, that is, have the power todraw moisture from the unsaturated air.

It is expected that operators of light-houses and airway beacons will be ableto use this method of observation on dif-ferent fogs, and thus will be able to choosethe most penetrative color for their light.

THE EMPTY SPACETHERE is today an empty space at Technology, a space previ-

ously occupied by one well liked by the students for hissympathy of interests and his appreciation of the problems of theundergraduate and by the Faculty for his proved capacity as aninstructor and his friendly cooperative attitude. For years heoccupied a position of esteem in the minds of those who came incontact with him. Today we find him missing, away from hisaccustomed place, and the knowledge that he will never againoccupy that place fills us with sorrow.

Death came earlier in the week and called Winward Prescottfrom the work to which he had devoted some fifteen years of hislife and in which he had made so many friends, acquaintances, andadmirers. During that time he had gained that elusive somethingsought after by all members of instructing staffs everywhere, popu-larity among his pupils. Not every man is able to get it, for itis reserved for those who know their work, who are able to instillsomething of their own enthusiasm in the students, and who havethat magical quality of making themselves respected and admiredby the undergraduates.

Mr. Prescott has been taken from us, our loss is great, andour sorrow is deep and sincere at the removal from our midst ofthis man who was so interested in his work and our own problems.

ON BECOMING OF AGEWORD comes that Dramashop, undergraduate organization for

producing more or less serious dramas, has taken steps tobecome a recognized activity. The present season is its fifth ofbringing modern dramatic productions before those of the student

body interested in them, and it feels that it has come of age.

In this opinion we most heartily concur. We feel that Drama-shop has shown sufficient permanence and student interest tojustify giving it official status. Especially since the demise ofTech Show, it has become the gathering place for those membersof the student body who are interested in any form of dramatics.

All this seems to lead to the old and belabored question ofculture at Technology. WVe shall not heap any more verbiage onthis already buried question; suffice it to say that there seems to beagreement that there is need for such, and that there are peoplewho will take advantage of the presentations. Dramashop for thepast five years has produced, at the rate of two a year, plays, somemodern and some older, dealing with some of the fundamentalproblems and conflicts which, in the eyes of the playwrights, areconfronting the human race.

As in almost any group of more or less highly-educatedpeople, there are men at the Institute who are deeply interested in

these problems. Those who wish to discuss these problems andhear them discussed support the Liberal Club; those who feel theurge to give dramatic expression to them do so through the agencyof Dramashop. Apparently, enough members of the remainderof the student body are interested in these expressions to make theventures, as a rule, financially possible.

W\Ve have also heard a deal lately about the decline and fall oftraditions and such at Technology. Perhaps this is inevitable.Old traditions die, and new ones spring up to take their places.Of course, Dramashop hardly takes the place of Junior Week, butperhaps the character of the interests of the students are changing.This, however, will not be discussed at this time. We wish tocongratulate Dramashop on its prospective coming of age; an indi-

cation of this is the assignment to it of an office in WValker Memo-rial. We hope that it will find favor with our deliberate legislature,the Institute Committee; we also hope that this august body willfollow the example of the Congress in recent weeks, and pass therecognition within a reasonable period of time.

Con-siderable surprise was evidenced becauseHrones, a Junior next year, was electedinstead of one of the men who will beSeniors, but the outcome of the electionwas received witlh much enthusiasm fromall the players.

Hrones went to the Mechanics ArtsHigh School, and played stellar hockeythere. He was on last year's freshmanteam, and was outstanding for his workon that team, at defense, and center onthe second line.

Seriously Injured This YearAll this year hlie has been one of the

finest players that Coach Duplin has hadto work with, and until his back was in-fected, following a deep slkate cut receivedduring the Dartmouth game, was one ofthe mainstays of the Beaver team. Theinjured back did not prevent his playingin the third B. U. game, and his work wasabout the best that was turned in by anyof the Technology players.

Members of both the varsity and fresh-man teams attended the banquet lastnight, and informal speeches were madeby all the team members who are to begraduated this June.

to the mat, and set about to win thesecond fall of the two. This was also wonby Negus, but the time was longer be-cause Yetman dislocated his shoulder andgave a fine exhibition of defensive nwres-tling. Because of the lack of activity onthe part of the injured Terrier, the secondhalf of the match went to the fairly longtime of 4m. 12s.

Poole, MIcCaughan Follow With WinsNot to be outdone by their mate, MIc-

Caughan, who was wrestling in place ofMostafa, the first substitute in the 155-1l.class, and Poole, the regular 165-lb. rep-resentative, each won his match in shortorder. McCaughan had little difficulty inthe handling of his Terrier adversary,Blenkhorn, and put him away in theamazingly brief time of lm. 6s., which bythe way, was the shortest time for a fallin the entire meet. Poole, however, wasmatched with an extraordinary man, onewho wouldn't wrestle. After Poole andthe B. U. representative had remained ontheir feet two minutes, time was called;the referee proceeded in the same manneras in the match which Negus won.

Poole then scored two falls in the timeof 3m. 7s. and 3m. 57s. respectively, leav-ing a clear floor for Klein. However, thisaction on the part of Poole was entirelyunnecessary, because Klein did the sameamount of floor sweeping with his oppon-ent and took away another five points

THE TECH

VARSITY HOOPMENEND SEASON WITH

DEFEAT BY TUFTSJumbos Stage Rally in Second

Half and Triumph By23-20 Score

FRESHMEN ALSO BEATENTechnology's varsity basketball team

was forced to end its season with a defeatwhen the Tufts College five staged a rallyin the second half of Wednesday night'sgame at Medford and topped the Engi-neers, 23 to 20. The losers had held aone-point lead until about five minutesbefore the end.

Tufts had to come from behind twicein the second half to gain the victory.With about eight minutes to go, Tech-nology held an 18-15 lead, due mostly tosuccessful long s:~ots. Then Cochran andRobison made baskets to give the Jumbosa one-point advantage. On the next playFred Feustel retaliated with a long shot,but it was the Engineers' last gesture.Cochran made another hawker, and Rob-ison converted two free throws as thewhistle sounded.

Half Ends in TieDuring the first half the Beavers carried

the play, but the excellent defensive workof Hymanson, Tufts guard, held off theirattack somewhat. They led, however,until just before the end of the half, whenClayman tied it up at 10-all with a shortshot.

O'Brien, as usual, led the Beaver teamin scoring, making ten points. He alsohad the experience of playing center forthe last few minutes of the game, afterJohnson had gone out on personals.Sysko also contributed a sterling game.The Jumbo stars were Robison at center,who equalled O'Brien's scoring total, andArt Cochran at forward.

Freshnmen Lose AgainTufts' strong freshmen, favored against

the Beaver first-year quintet, camethrough with a 35-19 victory. Their workwas featured by the work of Woodworthand Kavanaugh, while Wetherbee andRosengard, substitutes till lately, led thelosers' attack.

One game remains for the yearlings,with Governor Dummer Academy thisSaturday, while the varsity season hasbeen concluded, with a record of sevenwins against four defeats.
