Pease '29,was awarded second prize, five dollars.Honorable mention was given toAdolph H. Feibel '32. Rehearsals havebeen started on the prize winningskits and also on the chorus numbers.The stage department of Tech Showis working on the construction of astage in Walker Gymnasium.

The chorus numbers to be presentedwill be "Doin' the Pacoon," "There'sa Rainbow Round My Shoulder," andI"Digga Digga Doo." These numbersl|will be given by the men who tookIIpart in this year's Show. The castiIin the skit "Subterfuge" will consistI|of Almer H. Orr, Jr., '31, George B.lIDennison Une, and Chindblom. Mar-Ic el P. Aillery '31, William A.

The skitsIand dance numbers will be given atIseven o'clock Saturday night as part|of the activity presentations in coxi-nection with Open House.

Only Machine of Its KindThe centerless grinder, which is the

only machine of its kind in the world,was made in Cincinnati and is now the 1property of the Institute. This ma-

|chine represents a revolutionary im-|provement in present methods ofproducing work of circular form incross section. In the past it has beencustomary to produce such pieces ofwork by the center grinding method,in which the work had to be especial-ly prepared and held on the machinebetween centers during the grindingoperation.

As distinguished from center typemachines, the modern centerlessgrinder comprises a high speed grind-ing wheel and an opposed slowly mov-ing regulating wheel, forming agrinding throat. A work rest suit-ably supports the work in this throatand the several parts are relatively,adjustable for different sizes andvarieties of work. The grindingwheel serves solely for grinding pur-poses, while the regulating wheel con-trols the speed of rotation of the workpieces as well as the feeding move-\ment. Angular displacement of theregulating wheel makes it possibleto vary the feed of work through the Imachine without changing the speed;of rotation. In combination with adevice wbich automatically brings thework to the rest, such as a hopper

Ifeed, grinding becomes automatic.New Steel Costs $500.00 A PoundThe new cutting tool that vill be I

demonstrated is destined to changeour ideas as to what materials aremachineable and which are not, ac-cording to a statement by ProfessorRobelrt IH. Smith. It is an alloy oftungsten, carbide, and cobalt. A toolmade from this material and groundto an edge of about 90 degrees will

,cut a groove in an alundum wheel.Although possessing extreme hard-ness, it exhibits a toughness sufficientto prevent chipping when subjected toconsiderable abuse. At the presenttime the metal sells for $500;00 apound..

The diamond is the hardest knownsubstance with the sapphire next inorder. This new alloy will scratchsapphire. It will cut threads in glassand will machine porcelain, manganesesteel and many other materials whichheretofore have been considered non-machinable or machinable only withdifficulty. By actual performance ithas been shown that it retains itshardness to a remarkable degree atbright heat. Highly abrasive materi-als such as bakelite and hard rubberhave been machined with it at highspeeds.

The remarkable properties and thebehavior of this alloy of tungsten,carbide, and cobalt warrant furtherstudy for many additional applicationswhich have received little or no at-tention at the present time. Its greatvalue as a cutting material has beenproved and, as a consequence, it willfind wide application in machinery.

"Brains and not beef won the racefoi Technology," said Coach BillHaines after the crushing defeat ofthe Navy crew by the Cardinal andgray oarsmen on the Severn lastSaturday. The Navy crew averagednine pounds heavier than their op-ponents, their average weight being18a pounds to the 176 pound averageof the Engineer eight.

a Finishing a full three lengths aheadof the Navy eight, the Engineer oars-men scored their first victory againstthe Navy in nine years.

Integraph To Beopi c A t Seminar

Origin and Theory of Mechanical

Integrating Device Will

be'Explained

The Integraph, mechanical inte-grating machine created by the Re-search Division of the Electrical En--ineering Department, will be the sub-ject of discussion at the meeting ofthe Electrical Engineering Seminartomorrow at 3 o'clock in Room 10-275.

: Due to the general interest in thetopic this Seminar meeting will bek open to all and the discussion can beunderstood by anyone with a knowl-edge of calculus. This gives a splen-did opportunity for undergraduates tobecome acquainted with a developmentfor which the Institute has become

-famous throughout the world.5 The first model of a mechanical in-tegrating device utilizing the watt-hour meter was designed at the In-stitute in 1925 for the purpose ofsolving complicated equations en-countered in the study of transientvoltage phenomena and communica-tion networks. This model has beenimproved until at the present time thedevice is flexible enough to handle allfirst and second order differentialequations. The work is being con-tinued and the operations of the In-tegraph are being extended to thesolution of integral equations withvariable parameters, a type of equa-tion which arises in a great numberof engineering fields such as aeron-autics, hydraulics, and electricity.

After Concert Assuredby Management

Accordin- to an announcementmade by the management of the Com-bined nMusical Clubs, tickets for theannual Spring Concert and Dance, tobe held Friday evening in the Ini-perial Ballroom of the Hotel Statler,are vapidly being sold. Preparationsfor the event are practically colm-pleted and the Clubs feel confidentthat this year's concert will be moresuccessful than any of its predeces-sors.

In order to allow more time fordancing, it has been decided to makethe concert shorter than usual, eachClub appearing only once. The con-cert will begin at 9 o'clock, and isexpected to be finished in time to al-low at least four hours for dancingbefore the affair ends at 3 o'clock.!Music will be furnished by the Tech-tonians as usual.

The specialty act of the evening' will be "A Russian Spectacle" which

will be featured by an elaborate dis-play of costumes. The principals inthis cast will be Mr. and Mrs. BorisAlexandre Berestneff, who will be as-sisted by a double quartet from theGlee Club. A novel musical instru-ment, the Troyka, will be introducedduring this number. Mr. Berestneffhas also written a new song for this |occasion which is expected to becomeIa tradition at Technology. The songwill be introduced by the Glee Club!during the evening.

Tickets for the affair will be on sale Ithe remainder of this week. Dance Iprograms are being given out withlthe tickets so that preliminary ex-changes of dances may be arranged|

a nounce Winner(J Song Contest

William T. Hedlund is Composerof "The Forge", Chosen

as Best EPntry

With the close of the fifth and lastannual prize song contest comes theannouncement that this year's awardgoes to William T. Hedlund '21, whowill receive the prize of $150 for hiscontribution, "The Forge".

These contests were started fiveyears ago, the purpose being to securea Technology song to replace theStein Song, which many believe to betoo general in character for use atany one school. The prize wasoriginally 200 dollars, fifty dollarseach being contributed by the AlumniAssociation, Tech Show, the MusicalClubs and THE TECH; but as TechShow ended last season insolvent, theamount was reduced to 150 dollarsthis year-

The five songs which have beenchosen in the yearly contests willappear in the new song book whichis being published under the directionof Ralph T. Jope '28, and which isexpected to be ready by Commence-ment this June. The final decisionas to which song will supersede theStein Song will be left to the choiceof the students and alumni.

"THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH"TO Coach Haines, his Varsity and Junior Varsity crews, themanagers and substitutes who made the trip to Annapolis, and

those who stayed at home to practice for next Saturday's regatta,we extend our thanks. Not just for winning a race and losing one,nor for defeating the Navy Varsity, although the last was -no smallaccomplishment, but for doing Technology a greater service thanmost of us will ever be able to do.

For manly years, Technology's athletic teams have been com-posed for the greater part of good athletes and good losers, and, assuch, have commanded respect and admiration. All too few havebeen the victorious teams. Only once in the past have we beenrepresented by an undefeated crew. Consequently, the defeat ofthe Navy resulted in more favorable publicity on the sports pa-gesof' the nation'than 'any other event within memory.

Since the cold order seems to be on the verge of tottering, itmay not be expecting too much to look forward to wvhole-heartedstudent support of crew and the other Spring sports. Last yearthere were signs of awakening interest, although most of us dis-guised our interest in such matters pretty thoroughly. An edi-torial plea in THE TECH for the revival of such antiquated no-tions as, personally thanking the individual crew members metwith the old characteristic indifference. Now that the ice isbroken, crew men may expect more than ahn occasional- timid smilefrom their classmates.

TECHNOLO)GY'S ANVIL CHORUS.MOST of us have a hearty dislike for the "'Our Alma Mater

Forever" type of school song. Almost instinctively we sneerat the mention of a college song-too much we are reminded of.'Dear Old Siwash" and the kind of songs with whi~ch many insti-tutions are inflicted. And yet, on the other hand, we all feel athrill when a stirring chorus such as the "Anvil Chorus'> from`II Trovatore" is played.

Realizing only too well this student opinion, the Prize SongCommittees of thle past years have found their task difficult.. Theyhave succeeded in stirring up interest in the contests, and tbhislast year particularly their efforts have been repaid. For withthe song by William T. Hedlunld '20, Technology has been theprivileged recipient of a fine composition.

It is called "The Forge" and has none of the bad featureswhich students disliked in other songs. Combining dignity anddepth of feeling with a catchy harmony, it should prove immenselypopular. In the opinion of the committee, it stood out in a classby itself among this year's entries, and they believe that when itis incorporated in the new song book which is to 'De published soon,Technology will verify their views.

It was some years ag~o that the then-existing boards of theMusical Clubs, Tech Show and THE TECH, as well as the AlumniAssociation, agreed to contribute fifty dollars apiece each year asa prize for a Technology Song. For incurring obligations for theirsuccessors, these men have been severely criticized. However, thisnew son should bring about complete exhoneration, because with-out a doubt this one composition makes the whole plan fullyworthwhile.

POOR MODERNSAN automobile is never so appreciated as the day after a Iona

hike. A -newspaper is never so welcomed as after a month'sisolation. The ten-tube radio set is never again as clear as it isthe first night after the crystal set is traded in.

It is contrast then, that deepens pleasure; and contrasts arebecoming less and less sharply drawn. As marvelous inventionsbecome daily routine, they become as matter of fact a part of livingas shoes or hats. Once having a telephone there is not muchdifference in telephoning twenty miles or two thousand: and oncehaving an automobile there is not so much difference 'between afour a'nd an eight-cylinder. The improvements in nearly everycase represent as great an effort as was expended on theoriginal invention, buat the public is unable to give the admiringand deep-felt appreciation which it accorded the originals. Thefirst inventions as a rufle actually relieved some physical hardship.Those that follow cannot of course repeat something already done,no matter how vastly they are beneficial.

Lieall excesses, an excess of marvelous inventions can dullthe senses--the sense of appreciation. "Poor Moderns" we are,for more 4End More is being handed to' us-and less and less are weenjoying our privileges.-

sion comne trueIn a part of Africa lit-lie known to the

whites, where obscure trails ran, CecilRhodes dared to envision a railroad. Helived to build it.

The railroad itself was part of a vasterdream, a dream of a far inland colony linkedfast to existing coast settlements by rail.and wire communication. And he livedto build Rhodesia.

FErst the dream, then the reality, is the

so before next Saturday noon as the

campaign will close at that time. The

committee wished to close the drive

before spring recess but due to the

fact that they felt that some men

might change their minds over vaca-

tion, it was decided to continue until

Saturday.

All examinations must be completed

this week if they are to be taken atthe Institute as no doctor will be in

attendance after the drive closes. Ap-

pointments for these examinations

should be made as soon as possible.

Many who have already taken in-surance have failed to secure their

applying to Room 3-213.
