"Suspended In Air" Tickets-Tonight

"TECH SHOW REHEARSALLeft to right: "Mike" O'Brien, Georges Marcou, Ada Mae Renfer.

Tickets will be sold at the doorfor tonight's and tomorrow night'sperformances of "Suspended InAir", "Tech Show of 1954" at JohnHancock Hall. Seats in all threeprice ranges, $1.20, $1.80, and $2.20,are available for both performances.

"Suspended In Air" was writtenby Arnold Levine, '53. The book andlyrics were by Thomas Doherty, '56and John Bacom, '56. Music Direc-tor was John Hsia, '53.

The PlotThe plot concerns a continental

dress designer of Russian origin,who joins with a suspender companyto create a new fashion fad "Sus-penders for Women." "'

A certain Senator Joseph Mc-Crackey hears of this plan, and feel-ing that it is un-American for wo-men to wear suspenders, intervenes I

and attempts to break up this newcombination.

Involved in the proceedings areDave Rados, '55 as Roscoe Runson,vice-president of the suspender com-pany, Ada Mae Renfer as a dressmodel, Virgil Brown, '57 as SenatorMcCrackey, and George Marcou, '53as the Russian dress designer. Car-ole Behrins as 'the secretary of thepresident of the suspender company.;George Perry, '56 as the president ofthe' company, and Jack Rosenfeld,'56 as the naive office boy, areamong the otheis in the cast.

Dr. Preston Munter of the Medi-cal Department directed the produc-tion. The Tech Show orchestra ismade up of people associated withthe Institute in addition to membersof the Boston Conservatory of Mu-sie.

Hoopsters UpsetJumbos In, Final

:By 69-67 CountPlaying inspired, driving ball, MIT's

varsity cagers upset a hard-fightingTufts team Wednesday by a score of

t '69-67. Leading almost all the way,Tech won despite an injury to theirstar center Stan Shilensky '55 and thelessened efficiency of Giff Weber '55,who played almost the whole gameunder the threat of fouling out.

The whole team played great ball,every man contributing to the victory.The first half was dominated by thephenomenal shooting and reboundingof Shilensky; the second by the playof Carl Hess '55, Jack "Tiger" Britt'55 and Allen "Dutch" Schultz '54.

The game started auspiciously asShilensky dropped his first shot, ajump from the right side. Tech keptrolling till, with 5 minutes and fortyseconds left, they led 10-3. At thispoint Tufts put on a scoring spurt.and at the end of the first quartertrailed by only two points, 19-17. Stanalready had nine points, Schultz andHess, four.

Tech Rolls Up MarginAt the beginning of the second

quarter the Beavers fell -behind 20-19when Hegenhan of Tufts scored bothof the foul shots he was awarded at"Red" Schultz's expense. Tech wasnever on the short end of the scoreagain. Shilensky swished a corner onehander, Hess 'took a Ken Christie '54pass for a lay-up and Tech was offand winging with a 23-20 lead. Thenext few minutes of play were markedby Christie's terrific rebounding off theoffensive' boards.

Shiiensky HurtWith Stan and "Dutch" carrying

most of the scoring load, the Tech-men pulled away to an eleven pointmargin, the greatest they held at anytime, with two minutes left in thehalf. Besides the deadly shooting ofthe Beavers the main reason for thislead was the complete domination ofthe defensive board by Shilensky. Itwas a great blow to Tech's hopeswhen, with only 55 seconds of playremaining in the half, Shilensky washit in the knee while fighting for arebound. Up to this point Stan hadscored fifteen tallys, the total he fin-ished the game with. He tried to 'playin the second half, but, after one play,

onImMORE ELECTIONS,

The elections to be held next Tuesday will complete the make-

-"up of the new Institute Committee; ten more representatives will

be elected. Because of the fact that the living groups will vote-

.7-i separately, there may well be some degree-of confusion. Never-

theless, the students should remember that the men they choose

w Will be seated on the highest council of student government. These

men should necessarily be responsible, clear-thinking students,

with some constructive ideas of their own. This year, Institute

Committee will be operating under a new system; there will be

?':tc :fewer.members than in the past, and many of the old adminis-trative-difficulties haye been eliminated. under this new system,the committee should prove easier to handle, and undoubtedly will

consume less time tied up in red tape.

The importance of considering platforms and proposals rather

than activity records and popularity cannot be'overemphasized. It

is the job ox the Institute Committee to administer student goV-

ernment. We have already called attention to some of the issues

that are important to the students in the spring elections. Despite

this, many candidates have ignored- these issues and have chosen

to run on popularity or catchy campaign slogans. A position onr

Institute Committee is certainly one of honor and importance; it

is not one to be taken lightly or humorously. Before voting, the

students should, therefore, consider seriously the fact that they

will be electing the men who will control student'government next

year.

AT LAST--A WINNER

: After many years of drought, including a pathetic one-and-

sixteen season last year he..M.I.T. basketball team has returned

to winning ways. ,During the last six weeks, when the team won

wven out of eight. it was especially pleasant to watch a winning

" i> team. This next Monday, there will be a benefit game between the

varsity team and a picked intramural squad. The preliminary,

however, promises to be just as interesting, for the freshman-

team is scheduled to play a team of faculty members. This game

will provide every student with a chance to visit Walker Memorial

and boo his favorite coach, instructor, or dean. It is not often thatthe students can give the faculty a good rousing raspberry, this

is the best chance to. fll the gymnasium and make some noise in

years.

UNDER THE TABLE

' TThe action of the Dormitory Council in advertising their

Christmas Formal with empty liquor bottles this past December

only served to bring out the fact that it is common practice at the

Institute to serve drinks to anyone who can reach to the top o£

: the table. It would not be surprisingif the administration was

:: , somewhat perturbed at this flaunting of Massachusetts state liquor

regulations. In the near future the ad; ninistration will probably

investigate the situation of drinking an the campus--and in fra-

i < ternities-quite thoroughly. Such an investigation would revealthat no s-all number of under-age students engage in illicit im-

bibing. With a strong possibility of a probe such as this, it would

certainly be aidvisable.for the average M.I.T. nineteen-year-old to

-~, do his, drinking in some convenient out-of-the-way place such as.under the table or in a nearby closet.

Skaters Lose ToTufts; Capt. KileyPlays Last Game

The Engineer hockey team sport-ing two straight wins met Tufts atthe Boston Arena and were soundlybeaten by the Jumbos, 6-3. It was'the final game of the year for theBeavers and they finished the seasonwith a record of three wins, ninelosses, and one tie. Tech's squad wasaugmented byt the return of Gay-lord Schwartz, '56 who was injuredin the Northeastern game and hasbeen off the ice for two months, butstill Tech was not able to cope withTufts.

The teams played even in thefirst period. Finalty Harold Wells,55, stellar wing and defenseman,broke through three men and scoredon a solo at 14:20 of the first peri-od..Tufts countered with a score justone minute later and tied the countat 1-1. In the second period Tech hadtwo men in the penalty box, but finedefensive play prevented 'the Jumbo'six from scoring against Tech's fourmen. John L. Sullivan, 56 gave theBeavers a lead with an unassistedscore at 10:11, but Dick Kelley ofTufts scored two quick goals togivethe Jumbos a 3-2 lead going into thelast quarter. Kelley scored at 2:06of the last period for his "hat trick"and scored ten minutes later to. in-crease the Jumbo ,lead to 5-2, Tuftsscored again at 16:00, but Fred Cu-lick, '56 assisted by Jim Bartsch,'55 and Gus Schwartz scored at 18:01to make the final score 6-3.

Kelley led Tufts with a tremen-dous output of four goals and one as-sist. Captain John Kiley '54 and Jack

The Beaver varsity aquamen splittheir last two meets, dropping one-to Union C6llege, 51-33, and topplingRPI in a later neet, 47-37.

The Union swimmers got off toa strong start, by winning the med-ley relay, and continued on the win-ning trail by copping firsts in everyevent except the 200-yard breast-stroke, and the final relay. These con-tests were won respectiyely by FrankBuck, '55 and the quartet of BobSullivan, '56, John Reynders, '56,Hal Cohen, '55, and Captain DonBailey, '54. However, Tech tookquite a few seconds in the meet, in-cluding Quinn Solem, '56 in the 220and 440-yard freestyles, Jim Dwyer,'54 in the dive, Don Bailey in thehundred-free and Bob Jantzen, '56in the 200-yard backstroke.

pedite the present class social func-tions (i.e. graduation and SeniorWeek), and to provide .continuity forthe class organization (i.e. organizeclass reunions, etc.). This will requirethat the class president have two im-portant attributes: interest and abil-ity.

I would very. much like to workwith the class after graduation, andfeel that my interest in the class isproven by my record; it is for thevoter to decide if I have the -ability.I am sure that all candidates will joinme in urging you to vote Tuesday,March 9th, so that we will have a trueindication of your support.'

ROYAL C. RIEDINGERThe Permanent President of the

Class of 1954 should be a person well-rounded in all phases of the life ofthe Class of 1954 as well as all phasesof Institute life. My various classoffices-being Secretary-Treasurer ofthe Senior Class, member of the Sen-ior Week Committee, and member ofthe Sophomore Council-have givenme an excellent scope of the life ofthe Class of 1954. Being Captain ofthe crew and member of the AthleticAssociation have given me a clear pic-ture of the athletic progre;m which weall will agree is an integral part ofinstitute life. Work on other commit-tees such as, the Open House PublicityCommittee and the Military Ball Com-mittee have afforded me a valuableinsight into the last type of importantInstitute activity-the hobby or per-sonal interest type activity.

I feel that this panoramic view ofthe life of the Class of 1954 and ofthe Institute has well qualified me tobe your representative in the futureas Permanent President of the Class'of 1954.

"Tiger" StarsBritt started Tech scoring in this

frame, hitting for five straight pointson two one-handed push shots fromnear the foul line and one free throw.He was 'more. than matched, however,during the opening moments hby Gin-ello of Tufts who hit for three set-shots in a row. Another Jumbo bucketand the Beaver lead was down to avery shaky one point. Here Hess pop-ped in a corner shot, and Weber andHallee took oter, both rebounding andscoring wise so that at the end of thequarter Tech led by 56-48.

The final period saw the Engineerssurge to an'early ten point bulge onthe shoulders of Giff Weber and thenhave this cushion depleted to a twotally lead with 31/2 minutes of playingtime remaining. This part of the gamewas marked hrby a technical foul, calledon Hallee when he bounced tne ballhigh in the air to show his disgust atan official's call. However, the Tech-men were not to be headed off and,with Weber and Hallee hitting, led'bythree points with 57 seconds left.Tufts starting fouling to break thefreeze now instituted by the Engi-neers. Trading the onie point, forthat's all the Techmen could hit outof two free throws, for a chance at atwo-pointer, the Jumbos almost caughtup; but with the score 69-67 the.Bea-vers held the ball up to the finalbuzzer.

Eight men played in the game forTech. Three of them, Hess, Britt, andSchultz, stayed in for the whole game.It was the last game as Beavers forseniors "Dutch" Schultz, Ken Christieand Don Dix. They couldn't have fin-ished on a more exciting note.

Recently a young mid-westerner enrolled at auniversity as a Logic mnajor. His father had told him,with some understatement, that he was illogical. He refusedto squirie a pretty girl to a dance because her name wasJune Betz and he was against gambling.

He wouldn't eat avocados because they were also called"alligator pears" and he didn't like alligators.

In Addition, he was a slob.

Some of the men in his dorm tried to talk to hinm.

"Look at that shirt," they said. "The material's cheesy.Why don't you hop down and get a Van HeusenOxfordian... it's soft, fine -oxford cloth."'

"I'm not attending Oxford. I'm attending OldSiwash,"ahswered our boy.

"But, look, Buster. 'This oxford cloth. is woven tighterso it'll last longer. It's a smart investment.And it only costs $4.50."

"So who needs it? I might get hit by a truck. Then whatgood would it be?" quoth Buster.

"What about your collar? Flat as a pancake! Don't youwvant a good-looking button-down with that famousVan Heusen relaxed-roll?" one asked.

--- I got nothing against pancakes. I hate rolls."

Note: Our man flunked Ix)gic post haste, and was drafted.'The Army has him classified under "Secret Weaponc"
