Survey Continues:JobOutlook GoodIn Most Courses

Continuing its series of articleson employment opportunities in thevarious courses, The Tech presentsinformation that has been obtainedfrom the heads or placement of-ficers of the departments.

COURSE VIWhile job opportunities are no

longer as plentiful in electrical en-gineering as they have been duringthe past two years, Professor R. H.Frazier expects that all June grad-uates will be placed. As to summerjobs, juniors have good possibilitiesof securing jobs along engineeringlines.

The current ranges of startingsalaries are: $250 to $275 per monthfor bachelors; $300 to $325 permonth for masters; doctors salariesare largely dependent on the lengthand type of experience they havehad.COURSE VII

June graduates in Biology haveexcellent job possibilities, accord-ing to Professor G. T. Johnson.Cancer research, industrial atomicenergy projects, and hospitals offerBiology graduates a great varietyof jobs. The average reportedmonthly salaries were: $300 permonth for bachelors; $300 to $375per month for masters; doctors re-ceiving a minimum of $375 permonth.

COURSE ViExperience is the biggest factor

in determining the positions forJune graduates in Physics, and Pro-fessor C. Goodman states that thedemand is about five times as largeas the supply. Positions in Physicsare separated into three categories:government, industrial, and aca-demic. Salaries for doctors arehighest in the government group,starting at more than $5,000 peryear and often exceeding $7,000, de-pending upon the experience of theindividual. Industrial positions fordoctors are only slightly lower. Aca-demic openings, while more thanplentiful, are usually low paying.Government and industry havefewer openings for bachelors andmasters, and salaries start at $250to $350 per month.

COURSE IXGeneral Science and Engineering

students graduating in June willonly partly satisfy the demand fortheir services. Professor R. G. Hud-son attributes the increase in jobopportunities to the fact that em-ployers have only recently recog-nized the worth of the General En-gineer; they now often specially askfor Course IX graduates. Bachelorscan expect about $260 per month astheir starting pay.

Nineteen Honored ByEE Group At BanquetEta Kappa Nu, the Electrical

Engineering honorary society, heldan initiation, banquet, and danceon Friday evening, April 15, at theMyles Standish Hotel. Guest speakerwas Dr. Cecelia Gaposchkin of theHarvard Observatory who spoke on"The Goal of Astronomy." Thisbanquet also celebrated the tenthanniversary of the Beta Thetachapter of Eta Kappa Nu. Pro-fessor .Karl Wildes, and Professorand Mrs. Harold L. Hazin wereguests at the affair.

.Professor Albert Hall wasinitiated as an honorary member.Seniors who entered the fraternityare Earle W. Dubois, David Kemper,James LeGrazie, William McDonaldand Peter Piccoli. Juniors initiatedat this time were Kenneth Fertig,Michael Fitzmorris, John J. Paull,Seymour Lassen, James C. XIc-Allister and Lindsay Russell. Sixgraduate students, Robert Crooks,William Troy, Barton Brown, Rich-ard Spencer, Robert Arrison andEdward Dinowitz, also wereinitiated.

Crews Seek Revenge Against Harvard;BU Will Also Race n Charles Tomorrow

After a disappointing openingagainst Harvard, Princeton, andRutgers last week-end, Technol-ogy's heavy crews will try to soothetheir wounds with victories to-morrow afternoon on the Charlesin their second meet of the season.The opposition will be offered bylast week's main tormentor, Har-vard, who captured all of lastSaturday's races, and Boston Uni-versity.

The triangular meet will decidethe mythical championship of theCharles River, as it will be the onlytime that the three local crewswill be pitted against one anotheron the river this year..

Harvard again will be consideredthe favorite in the Varsity competi-tion. Coach Tom Bolles' eight

rowed to good advantage over thefield last week and it seems un-likely they will be beaten this week-end.

BU's relative strength is a ques-tion. The Terrier eight traveledSouth this winter and defeated afew small schools, including Rollinsand Tampa, but have not met anyNorthern competition.

Coach Big Jim McMillin, who wvasnot too satisfied with last week'sresults, has been pushing the boyshard this week in practice, butplans no change in his varsity boat.This means that Al Fonda willstroke the varsity with ti Pendel-ton, Bob Weber, Breen Kerr, PaulSmith, Forest Monkman, and

The president's office yesterday confirmed the fact thatProfessor F. Alexander Magoun, teacher and lecturer in humanrelations, has been given a terminal appointment ending Feb-ruary 1, 1950. Professor Magoun has been at the Institute forthe past twenty-nine years; for ten years as an instructor in theNaval Architecture Department and for nineteen years teachingthe human relations course.

Carefid ReflectionUrged in AttackingMarriage Problems

First Year the Hardest,Don't Nag, Says MagounIn Final Marriage Talk

On Monday of this week, Profes-sor Magoun presented his last lec-ture here at the Institute. The lec-ture, entitled "Emotional Readjust-ments" was the last in the "InPreparation for Marriage" seriessponsored by the T.C.A.

According to Professor ,Magoun,the wedding is the commencementof important emotional adustments.The husband's relationships to hisfamily, to his wife's family, and tohis wife will all be changed. Otherreadjustments such as geograph-ical, social, and religious must bemade.

Nagging Is No SolutionAccording to Magoun, the best

method of reaching a solution toa problem is to go somewhere aloneand let your anger or unstable emo-tions quiet down. "Adjustments taketime and problems must be care-fully thought out." In this respecthe said that nagging does not solveanything.

"The most important factor for asuccessful marriage," concludedProfessor Magoun, "is cooperation."He stressed this point when he pre-sented the following prerequisitesfor cooperation: (1) There must beself-respecting people on a self-respecting status. (2) There mustbe a healthy understanding of howyour actions affect others and howtheirs affect you. (3) There must beavailable an effective method ofsettling differences that arise. (4)There must be mutual responsibil-ity for results.'

Teehnique ptionsGo On Sale Monday

Technique will place options onsale for this year's yearbook fromMay 1 to 5 at a cost of $3.00. Thesale price of the yearbook will be$6.00. The staff has planned a lim-ited edition of only 1200 copies, andaccording to a spokesman for Tech-nique, options will be required toinsure availability of the book.

Spilt Tickets To Be SoldTo Both Soph Prom Events

Split tickets for the SophomoreProm will go on sale Monday,May 2.

Tickets complete with table res-ervation for the formal "StardustBall" Friday evening, May 6th, inthe Grand Ballroom of the CopleyPlaza with Skitch Henderson andhis band will be sold for $5.60 (taxincluded).

"|Swing'n Doors" tickets for thedance, square dance, and gamblingparty at Walker Memorial on Satur-day evening, May 7, will be sold for$3.00 (tax included).

Professor Magoun himself statedthat he had been quite surprised bythe news, that no reason had beengiven him for the Institute's action,and that he had asked none."Twenty-nine years," he said, "isquite a piece of anyone's life."

Position Anomalous'The reason for the Institute's

action is generally believed to havebeen the increasing anomaly ofProfessor Magoun's teaching status.in particular, the various featuresoffered by the human relationscourse have been supplanted by ex-pansion in various other depart-ments, the personal counseling hehas offered has been replaced bythe Psychiatric Clinic and the ex-pansion of the office of Dean ofStudents, and in general, there nolonger remain at the Institute theopportunities that a teacher of Pro-fessor Magoun's caliber deserves.

Professor Magoun is well knownat the Institute not only for hiswork in the human relations course,devoted to the application of the r-' -

scientific method in that field, butalso for the personal help he hasoffered to students and members ofthe Technology family, and for hislectures on marriage which he hasgiven under the auspices of theT.C.A. He was one of those origin-ally active in attempting to gettrained psychiatrists for the school,and for the past three years, hehas been active in passing on theinformation he has taught hisHuman relations sections to top-flight management around thecountry.

Naval Arch. InstructorAlthough originally in Naval

Architecture, as an instructor, heswitched over to Human Relationsafter ten years because, as hestates, "I found I was more inter-ested in people than things."

Promoted SafetyProfessor Ernest A. Hauser of the

colloid chemistry department, said"I have known Prof. Magoun sinceI came here on a permanent basis35 years ago, and always have beenmuch impressed by the interest hehas taken in the students and howhe was always available for stu-dents wanting his advice . . . notonly pertaining to their studies butalso to their problems in life. Ipersonally think he has made very

THOSE RENTS AGAINNow that we've had a chance to examine the rates in the

various ,dormitories for the coming term and discuss them withsome representatives of the administration, we can give youa fairly good idea of what the residents of various dormitorieswill be getting for their rent money. Before the DormitoryBoard can set a price, it receives from the Treasurer a state-ment of the amount of interest the Dormitory system is ex-pected to earn during the ensuing year. Next year this willbe 2.5 %, which represents about $80,000 on a total investmentin undergraduate Dormitories ,of about $3°2 million. As wehave pointed out before, the Institute justifies this procedureby citing the fact that funds for building are appropriatedfrom general investment funds which are required to yield anannual return.

It is up to the Dormitory Board to decide how these interestcharges are to be distributed among various units. We jotteddrown a rough calculation to compare the pro-rated interestcharges at the New Dormitory and the old ones with their re-spective rents. Our figures show that the charges come to $60and $28 per man per term at the new and the old units in thatorder. Apparently then, there is little or no truth in the rumorsthat Old Dormitory residents will- be subsidizing New ones(assuming operating expenses at both dormitories are approxi-mately the same per man). Actually, the true picture will notbe available until the financial report for 1949-50 is publishedin October 1950. We hope the report will keep the two dormi-tory accounts separate.

Insofar as we have been able to find out, the practice ofreaping interest on dormitory investments is the rule amongcolleges which do not have endowed residence houses. ManyTechmen look with frank envy on accommodations available toHarvard students and become even more green-eyed when theycompare the rents up the river with ours. It seems that sometime ago a philanthropist named Harkness, becoming wearywith the dilly-dallying with which his offers were being met atYale, walked into the office of President Lowell of Harvard andoffered to build $5 million worth of dormitories, if the univer-sity would adopt Harkness' house plan. Lowell leapt at thechance like a bursar at a five dollar fee, and two hours laterthe preliminary negotiations had been concluded and Harknesshad been talked out of an additional $2 million. In those days,$7 million bought a whale of a lot of dormitory so today'sHarvard student is reaping the benefits of Yale's hesitation,all interest free.

There are only two ways in which dormitory rent atTechnology can be reduced: operating cost can come down, nota very likely prospect, or interest charges can be reduced or,better yet, eliminated. In the 'latter case someone will haveto endow the Institute with an equivalent amrnount of moneyto be applied to dormitory construction. As far as the $20million fund drive is concerned, it will be at least a few yearsbefore anyone begins to derive much from the proceeds; per-haps the present freshman class will be among the first to doso. Furthermore, dormitory funds have relatively low priorityout of the amount allocated for building construction. Amongother projects, a gymnasium and an auditorium rate prece-dence. There is something the students can do, however, ifthey.want to make sure that rents are eventually reduced.

Keep an eye on the fund drive. If it goes over the top byany considerable amount, there will be a lot of unallocatedfunds available, and the students should share the use of these.If the drive does exceed its goal, pressure should be broughton the Institute, through the Institute Committee, DormitoryCommittee, and this paper, to refinance the dormitories on anon-interest bearing basis. For now we must content ourselveswith our dogmatic statement that part of these funds should beused to reduce students' living expenses;' at a later date wewill explain the philosophical reasons justifying this statement.

THE TECH

Letters to the EditorMAIJLIONAREDear Sir:

I'd like to recommend a newmotto for M.I.T... "M.I.T., theonly college where a millionaire cango broke."

There are two main causes whichcontribute to the rapid decapital-ization of the Techman:

1. The excessively high tuition-At present M.I.T. has the highesttuition (for a technical institution)in the country. Next term, as every-one knows, tuition will ascend toeven more dazzling heights. I, per-sonally, have nrio knowledge of thecosts for the administration ofM.I.T., so I cannot fight this in-crease with any facts and figures.

2. The new dormitory policey-In the April 15 issue of The Tech,there was an article which an-nounced the rent and service sched-ules for the next term in the oldderms. I think that they are out-rageous. On the ground of risingcosts, the administration plans toincrease rent five dollars per man,

and to cut porter service frommaking the beds six days a weekto changing sheets once a week. Inthe first plae, I challenge the"rising cost" excuse; present indi-cations show that costs are, in gen-eral, decreasing. At worst, they arestaying level. Whatever the costpicture is, though, the fact is thata student can now Poom in a pri-vately owned house, get maid orporter service every day, and stillpay up to fifty dollars less per termthan iu the dorms (I know severalfellows who are doing this.)

I think. that it would be a goodidea if the Institute considered thelong term effect of its gougingpolicy. Such a policy is certainly notgoing to produce loyal alumni whocan be depended upon to answer theDevelopment Committee's requestsfor fumds.

George Turin, '51

LOWER PRICESDear Sir:

The board rate of $10 per 5-dayweek which shall prevail in theNew Dormitory is, I think, too high.A quick poll of my friends showsthat only those with the heaviestappetites approach this $2-day rateat Walker Cafeteria.

At Walker, there is a relativelylarge choice of food, and the man-agement can never be sure of howmany customers they will have dur-ing any given meal period. -

However, at the New Dormitory,the dining service will know justhow many meals to prepare, andwill serve, according to Mr. Watson,one or at most two menus. In viewof these two factors, it is logical toexpect lower, not higher pricesthan at Walker. Furthermore, inthe Harvard dormitories, where asimilar board policy is now in effect,the food costs $8.93 per 15-mealweek ($12.50 per 21-meal week).

weekend."The only bright note in last

week's festivities, as far as Tech-

nology was concerned, was the ex-

happy start, caused by the wind

gamely, and were just nipped at the

finish by the Harvard shell. The

boys are confident-they will dump

Harvard this weekend.Preceding the heavyweight crew

races, the lightweight crews from

Harvard and Technology will hook

up in a rematch of last week's races

which were cancelled because of

darkness.

well, Schwarz said, he has been

much impressed with his counsel-

ing of students, and he referred to

Professor Magoun's very successfulindustrial consulting for manage-ment-labor relations and personnelwork. Professor Schwarz concludedby stating that the relations be-tween his division and Magoun'shad always been of the best.
