GOOD-BYEThis is probably the first time in history when we are

tempted to dismiss our graduating seniors with a fond "we'reglad to see yon go." Should we be challenged in taking thisapparently truculent -attitude we'll be glad to expand our state-ment and say, "we're glad to see you go into industry at thistime." Our graduating seniors are truly in a unique position.Their job opportunities stand anequalled.

A series of circumstances are responsible for the tre-mendous demand for June graduates and the unusually highsalaries being offered. The Wall Street Journal, which hasrecently conducted an extensive survey on employment forcollege graduates, sums it up -this way: employers are eager toget their hands on the first crop -of post-war graduates afterhaving experienced -a dearth of trained personnel during thewar, while at the same time industry is "placing an accent oyouth as it hurriedly girds for the stiff business competitionlahead." Since the supply of college graduates entering indus-tr this year is stil relatively low, the latter are -in a positionto command phenomenal salaries as compared to pre-warstandards.

Students with master's and doctor's degrees are in a pareticularly fortunate position. The shortage of such degree--holders is so, acute that literally dozens of companies are bid-ding for their services with doctors' starting yearly salariesof-ten exceeding $5000. Ald since most students seem anxiiausto get out into industry rather than to stay on for postgraduatework, masters and doctors -should be at a premium for sometime to come.

The overall employment picture, therefore, looks verybright and we're happy thlat our seniors are offered this fineopportunity to get .1 start in this "brave new world."

Turning aside from mercenary considerations, however,we are genuinely sorry to realize that we are soon to part withmany of -our present friends, people we've known and appre-cia~ted, many,of whom have, in their ownl way, left an indeliblemark on the Institute. By doing significant research work, bydistinguishing themselves in extra-curricular activities, byachieving the highest scholastic standards, or tby furtheringTechnology's name in sports, many of the graduating seniorshave earned our admiration and respect. Good luck to all -of you I

AN EDITOR'S LAMENT(The f ollowing editorial, as nearly as we can ascertain,

first appeared in "The Purple and White," weekly news-paperof Millsaps College, Jackson, Miss.)

Profs can sit cross-legged on the top of a -desk;s dean's firstlist students can let down their guard, student body presidentscan fraternize with the masses.

Only an editor is required to be pontifical always.Only an editor is supposed to know everything that hap-

pens so. it is taken for granted that he already knows it, andnobody ever tells him anything; only an editor is supposed to

keep an open mind always, anld at the same time make snapdecisions for each political impasse; -only an editor is requiredto keep his nose out of politics, meanwhile keeping tab on thestrengthof each separate lineup.

Profs have their apple-palishers who ask questions afterelass; dean's list students get their quarterly reports; student

body presidents hear quarterly reports.Only an editor has to guess.Onlly an editor has to gro-pe blindly along, trying to put

out a paper for a student boady who will talk only behind hisback, who will never tell him what they like and don't like, whowill squawk only when they are mortally 'or irreparablywounded, who never thank him when he says anything niceaboat'them or censor anything nasty, who, have to be trackeddowel, cornered, and beaten insensible before -they will so muchas givre him a news lead.

Profs have the satisfaction of seeing their teachings putinto practice; dean's list students are an inspiration. to theirsuccessors; student Ibody presidents Scan point with pride at'year's end to long rows of achievement.

Only an editor never accomplishes anything.Only an editor-has to endure the spectacle of 599 of his

600 loyal readers, each and every week, turing immediately

And when all's said and done, Manly an editor has thesatisZfacttion of knowing that 'his thousand Wlobds a week arewritten -down in letter~s that can nevrer be erased; of feelingsomething in a way which -must have immediately anid. lastingeffect; of knowing that, if he knew how to use it, he has .thewliole state for his audience ;- of sensing that he is doing -a jobfor the students which nao ione elose could do in quite the sameway; and last, but nlot leak, of tbeing sure of a ,staff that, nomatter how much he is forced to abuse them, overwork them,deny -them any reward for their work, will be driven back formore by pure love of literary effort. Onliy an editor -wouldgripe about it.

'Emotional Adjustm'ent i'Is Topic Of Final Talk':

EProfessor P. Aiexander MAgO=concluded his spring series of lec- - <-tures "In Preparation for Marriage" ;on Mond~ay, May,19, in Boom 10-250. 'The subject of ,the talky was ",Emo- .tional Adjustraents in M~arriage." .

"rns order to achieve 'successfuladjustments between a husbardand wife," Professor MagounL de-, clared, "1four psychological require -ments are nlecessary?" He -cited fistthe need for ia, self-respectink statues -for both the husband and wife. -

Seoondly, both~ -Owrners musthave a oontinued and healthy understanding 'of. how the desiresand actions of one affect -the other. .Since there wil ,be inevitable dishagreements, professor Dragounstated that thffe couple must haveconfidence in its Waility, to solvethese problens~ acceptably. P'ilally,boh husband and: wife must acceptmutual responsibility for the resultsof their actions.

"There is only one f undamentalcause for divorce, he said, "andthat. is incompatibility." He went onto show that all other causes maybve traced to this. "The tragedy ofdivorce is not tile divorce itself, butthe things which cause it."

In concluksion, Professor Maounthan3ked the T.C.A. for its continuedsponso siip of his marriage lee.tures. The lectures were originallybegun in l1929 for his own classes.Af ter a few years he decided, thatthe entire student body should have-an opportunity to hear the series,and obtained the backing of -theT.C.A.

getting an edge on the market.Hence college graduates, and es-

pecially those.whot have had actualworking experience, are being bidfor with metaphorical chocolatebans and, dreamlike salaries. Pro-dtuction now is he watchword. Thisleaves She student who would likesummer employment for practicalexperience beating on the person-nel offce doors. Business is notwilling to train a man. for a reason-ably pdoucltve job even -though itshould rbake less than a month todo Ao, since the new help will leavewhen the fall, session of college be-gins. Short-term hairing appearsfoolish to the employer when laboris becoming more plentiful and -afull-time worker could be employedin the erranot students place.

Students in 0ourse IVZi, -CityPlanning, who generally are offeredjobs -through the department havehad to go looking on their own thisyear. It would, seem from what isreportted that no offers have beenrevedved by the depanment. ZbAtcompanies prefer to take expe-rienced men or college graduates.

Comptanies whose work dependedlargely on war orders are now noteven holding toheir own. MathewsonMachine Works inc., for inst~ace,which produced large notor unitsfor land-ing , and transportationbarges during the war, and the Sub-marine Signal Company, makers ofunderwater deteolion sonar equi~p-ment, have had to release helpwjhtin the past few months Teformer dropped several dozen menfrom (their labor force recently.The cause is mainly the shortage insteel rather than lack of orders.

Concerning the latter companywe remember that it did expandtremendously during the war. Thesedrops in employment don't entirelyindicate a recession in business. Itis partly a return to normal peace-time production. Submarine SignalCompany, one of the earliest de-velopers of sonar, employed about700 before this war, expanded tre-mendously wilth thousands of edn-ployees during the war, but is stillenhploga about 160 people now,a substantial increase over prewaremployment. During the past fewweeks, however, even a few of theengineers and technical advisorshave been laid off and a nall per-centage of the labor force has alsobeen dropped, a fact which doesseem -to indicate declining businessactivity.

So it is when the summer workersmiles at Ms prospective employerand is met with a cold "sorty, we'renot hiring anybody." In manyplaces the Job seeker is met at thegate with a "no help needed" andnever even sees the inside of Elhebusiness establishment.

Lieutenant Flrederick WilliamMiehe, Jr., USN,-a navl graduatestudent warship design, was pre-sented with the Air Medal on Thurs-day, May 22, in the presence of thenaval students and the administra-tive officers atI-the Institute. '

The medal was presented 1j Com- tmander Ernest C. Holtzworth, UISN, ccommanding officer of the naval ltrainng school at Technology and 1a member of the faculty of thedepartment -f Naval ArchitectureandiMarde Engineering. The Medal awas awarded to Lieutenant Miehefor his participation during the war ;as navigator for a blimp squadronin the first trans-oceanic flight com.pleted by non-rigid, airships.

ILQoking in, we saw 30 odd women(¢'30 odd" means about 30, notnleesarily odd women) doing calis-thenicsa truly fascinating -andinspiring sight. Inquir revealed, thefollowing facts. The women belongto Wiestgawte Wives which, .by scien.tific -deduction is anl orgaiation ofthe wives of veteran students livingat Westgatp. They are members of acalisthenics group dedicated tomaintaining the -figures of W.W.'s inan attractive shape. Meetings takeplace in Walker gym ethWednes-day evening freom 7:30 to 8:00 pn.mand are open to women from West-gate and Wesgate West. Oceasion-ally a secretary sneaks ill, ins-disguise, naturally.

r With the last issue of The Techs the sports department feels that al2 the strenuous exercise 'of the soft-Iball tournaments should not go un-a Inoticed and so we are printing our' list of the top Dormitory softbal

players this season, -IWe would like very much to be

able to print a full Tedh, All-Star team, but the Beaver Key Tourna-i ment has allowed only a elimina-F tion tournament to let us-observeX the softballers in action, and so

many of the better players werenever seen in action more -thanonce during the year. Therefore,we have chosen the DormitoryLeague where all teams play at leasteleven games and the Techmen geta chance to-exhibit their prowess.

All Star TeamThe picking of the top battery of

tthe,Dorms was nottoo difcult, withthe powerful Westgate club leadingthe fieid, and so for star pitcherwe chose Fred- Woods, and for hisbattery mate, Dan H~arms, catcherextraordinaire. The -field was not,divorced of competition howeverwith Walter La Force and DaveIsrael also foiling many batterswith their distinctive styles. TjeDormn League did not Produce manycatchers near the power of Harmshowever, but Don Anderson and-Stew Brauns combined to catchand hit well to give them honorsable mention.

The choosing of an Infield was atoss-up with the Inflelds of the 5:15and Wood making it tough for anlyPotential hitter.. Perhaps the easi.est way to start would be to pickas Mr. ShortstopBob Balu:ft ofWood. Combining with their short-stop the infield of Jeff Taylor atfirst, Al Kenerick at second andJohn Goldson,at third was one ofthe sharpest inMelds in the league.The 5:15 fielded more con~sistentlythough -less spectacularly with athird basemen-Herb BKurinsky sec.ond to none, and with exceptionalplayers on second with Bob Mur-phy, Vince Lally at short and-heavyhitting Joe Casey at fist.

Power EittersWhile these two clubs presented

the best all around infleldus West-gate produced its exceptjon firstsacker and power hitter Don Mar-shall, while Hayden Was only ahairsbreawth behind for honors atfirst with their power house GeneWrobleski. There were many otherfine players in the league, amongthem George Basta, Tay Block,

The line ups for tihe clubs are asfollows:

In the outfield we had an easiertime. Hank Grane of the SeniorHouse was obviously the fleetestball chaser in left field. Fred Grantof the 5:15 was also tops in the out-field with his errorless fielding andBob Warner of Wood rounded outthe first team out in the daisies.The other top outfielders in theLeague were Raul Sada, Art Levineand Jose Marques.

Plans are underway for an issue for freshmancamp before the start of ithe fallterm, pending the return of enoughstaff members to write and distribute the issce.

The Tech regrets the fact thatthere will be no student, newspaperor organ of ,any kined during thesummer, now 1that the Veteran'sView has been forced to cease pub-lciatioan. However, production andcirculation conrsiderations haveforced The Tech to suspend publi-

cation until the falL.Anyone wishing to oontact The

offering bigger pay hecks. Chem-ical engineering majors are beingtempted by sums somewhat largerthaa those offered to members ofthe other four "popular courses."

Graduates of courses other thanthe five previously listed are re-ceiving offers averaging approxi-mately $225 per month. Describedas in "1good demand" by ProfessorTucker are the graduaPtes of chemis-try, physics, metallurgy, and civilengineering, in ithat order.

* Small Course SituationMembers of the less heavily pop-

ulated courses suchas as architture,food technology, biology, geology,building and engineering construc-tion, and economics and engineer-ing, are obtaining jobs throughtheir deparmnent heads and theirown efforts. Nio definite data areavailable concerning these courses,

but no depar~tment has expressedfear that the services of its gadu-ates wi1 go urlealled for.

Flor example, in Course IV (archi-tectu~re) 15 students are graduating.Of these three are foreign studentswho will return to their ntive3counltrie, seven are know~n to havepositions, and the remaining fiveaxe ~believed tto have employmentwaiting for -them.

Opportunities in Course XIn another itypical small course,

food technlogy, seniors are facedwith jobs that hold -forth anly fu-ture possibilities, principally in ex-pandintg indulstries. The WAresare in line with the Overall wageoff ers,blunt the chance for advance-ment is much greater. It is a bit,late for sen:iors to change course,but this seems to be a. good choicefor those who can still get intoCourse I,

Exeellen~t as the opprtunities axefor bthe class of '47, the situation.with regard to men receiving theirPhlD.'s in June is newxly ideal. Theseexsated personages have had anaverage of 25 offers each. A stat-ing yearly wage of $6000 has notbeen unusual for the bearers of en-gineering doctorates.
