And wh at sor t of accom moda- tion s were fo und by the trave ers? Mr. Tanham remarked "we took a t wo weeks m otor tour throug h France, wi th no ad· va n ce reser vatio ns, but we al- way s found acco mmod at ions, us· ually in s ma ll h otels, which were good, a nd cheap, too."

Pric es Good Price s were generally good, co mpared to Am er ica n sta ndard s, and Mr. Ta nh am s tated "in Bel- g ium t he sta nd ard of li vifbg is much the same as it is here , and pri ces are about eq uaL Th e food, for instance , was exce ll ent, and cost about th e same as in Amer- ica." And what abo ut th e peop le? Th e answer to thi s ques tion wa s th e same from both men. Said Dr. Eagleson , " the peop le de· pressed us very mu ch. Th ey im· press ed us as being list less a nd tired. They don't wa nt the Rus- s ians fa take th em ovel', and they want us to defend th e m.

both men said received the hea v­iest damage, s tilI is partly in ruins. Dr. Eagleson remarked, " mos t of the German ci t ies a re s imply gone-the damage is un­believa ble. T he people are ve ry shabby, their c lothes are s leazy, a nd are rea lly only pieces of clothes, of a ll kinds."

The only schools and universi: ties with which t he two educa­tors came into contact were in Belgium. Accord ing to Mr. Ta n­ham, these are "gOing full blas t , w ith the ir larges t enrollments in history, a nd the us ua l problems of where to put a ll the s tudents ."

And what sort of accomm oda­tions were found by the travel· ers ? Mr. Tanham remarked "we took a t wo weeks motor tour through France, w ith no ad· vance reser vations, but we a l­ways fou nd accommodat ions , us· ually in small hotels, which were good, a nd cheap, too."

Dr. Eagleson said " it is s till possible to find out of the way places which are fairly peacefu l a nd pleasa nt. Some of the small towns in Switzerland were es pe·

cially nice." Prices Good

Prices were generally good, compared to American standards, and Mr. Ta nham s tated " in Be l­gium t he standard of li vifbg is much the same as it is here, and prices are about equa L The food, for instance, was excellent, and cost about the same as in Amer­ica."

And what abou t the people? The answer to this question was the same from both men. Sa id Dr. Eagleson, " the people de· pressed us very much. They im· pressed us as being listless and tired. They don't want the Rus­sians fa take them ovel', and they want us to defe nd them. We were there when t he news from Korea was bad, and they weren't very ha ppy."

People Depressed Mr. Tanham was s imilarly im­

p l·essed. He said, "We becam e more depressed the more we saw of them. They wer e apathetic, and didn't give a damn. I think our biggest fa ilure was in not ins piring them. They ha ve no th· ing to believe in, s ince t hey don't be lieve in us. They say they will fight, but I don't think that they wiII fight w ith very much s piri t.

Nuts and Bolts -by Carl Hildabrand

The Tech canied an editorial two weeks ago under the title of "The Truth Shail Make You Free." This seem s to be rather a plausible statement. If one will consider it for a m oment though, t.he immensity of this thought m akes its meaning less clear. Two obvious questions will arise. What is the truth? How will it set one free?

In attempting to answer e i-the I' of these questions, one is faced with the difficulty that the meaning of phrases such as this changes with usage. Anyone can say that h e has the truth and, defining freedom, promise that it will make one free. What did this phrase mean to the person who . first used it? What does it

mean today? Obviously we need The s taple offering is, of course, enough opera wi ll discover small. music in Los Angeles.

Campus Interviews on Cigarette Tests Number 3 ••• THE FLICKER

Sometimes kibi tzers don't even have to ta lk to m ake themselves obnoxious. The gathering of the clan behind some power-laden h and may give away the secrets of the most poker-faced player. Or the person who suddenly claps his hand to his forehead and runs around the table to some other player might just as well have said, "Now you've it; I 'm going to watch someone who doesn't mess up so badly."

The source is the Bible- J ohn 8:31-32, ", , , If ye continue in my word, then are ye my dis· ciples indeed; and ye sha ll know the truth, and the tru th shail make you free." The author is Jesus Christ, or so the Bible states.

In order to unders tand what Jesus meant one should read at leas t the eighth chapter of John, if not the whole Gospel. Al­though this writer has done a 'great deal of thinking on ,.the matter which has resulted in many very moving and convinc­ing experiences whi<;,h prompt him to elaborate, he will have to be satisfied here with the barest summary and the most general interpretation of this portion of the Bible,

One may say three things about the truth as it is spoken of here in the eighth chapter of John, 1) The truth is not di­rectly concerned with physical fact or material existence. 2) It iasts beyond physical fact and m a te rial existence-it is eternal. 3) The truth is in some way in­separable from C.hrist.

Being free is spoken of here as meaning tha t one knows the a nswers to the questions which a t one time or another plague so many people and which most people sooner or later dismiss as unanswerable. Is the re a God? What is an individua l's re lat ion to God? What are one's respon· s ibilities toward God? And so on.

rying about how they got started or how they might end) we can then control the physical world and, in dOing so, better man's 10.t

This most certainly seems to make sense. The only trouble Is that we become so absorbed in learning a ll about wondrous Mother Nature (or whatever we happen to be doing) that noth­ing else matters and as we learn to control our environment we lose what li ttle control we have had, if any, on ourselves.

So many people today consider any subject such as Ch rist ia nity so foolish t hat it is not worth considering. Others feel·uneasy enough about it to grant that some thought may be required on this score but prefer to leave that to preachers and old women while they themselves do some· thing important. Most people just trust in the a lmighty dollar, "science," or what-have-you, just so long as it can be weighed, smelled, tasted, Or played with, All of these groups of people neglect questions not directly reo lated to the above physical reac­tions 01' s imilar ones.

Herein lies the sad state of "truth" as so many people know it today. Rejection o f a claim after a fail' consideration is one thing. At least the pe rson has though t the thing over, applied it to himself, and then rejected it because he thinks it is false. A person who has rejected one thing as false might have some reason for saying that another thing is true. But one who neg­lects one thing has no right to say that another thing is true or that the thing that he h as neglected is false.

It a il adds up to the fact that most of what is said about bridge need never be said. (Remarks concerning this column will not be a ppreciated,) If a player will make it a point never to blame his partner for anything which might possibly not be his part­ner's fault, a lot of ill will may be avoided. Since the only way a person will learn anything a bou t bridge is to have his mis­takes pointed out to him, it is certainly permissible for either another player Or a kibitzer to point ou t any errors after the hand has been completely played, Nobody, however, should at­tempt this unless he can explain the reason for making a differ· ent piay, If you can't expialn It, keep your mouth shut.

It is the experience of this writer that most people who laugh at the idea of a divine or miraculous person or occurrence as something out of the super­stition of the past-it is the ex· perience of this writer t hat such people have never really consid­ered the matter. These people worship science or some other thing they ar e concerned with as their god and scoff at the idea of God- at least insofar as it in· valves them personally.

Caltech and the freshmen have known each o ther for three weeks now. Tech goes on with its business, but the frosh have­n't recovered from the shock. They are still appalled at every­thing, the interest of the facu l· ty in the s tudents, the phenom­enally low grades, the spectacu­lar in terhouse battles, the full weekends, the work, and the confusion.

Upon first arriving on cam­pus the friendliness of the up­perclassmen and eve r yon e around struck the freshmen as singu lar. The high school stories hadn't made it out this way at a l l. "The Crash are pushed around, even to the extent that they are snubbed by upperclass­men." Perhaps the y thought Lhis friendliness was just a sign of the first few days. However, as Frosh camp came and was followed by rotation in the stu­dent h ouses, it became gratify­ingly clear that freshmen, upper­classmen, and facu lty were a ll on the same level.

Classes started and man y were, are, and will be left non­plussed by MRW and PhJllips. As one instructor put it, "I want you to learn all th ese definitions even though you don't under­stand them because I hope that some day you will see the light." (When, after flu nk ing out?) Quizzes with a stupendous conglomeration of grades rang­ing from zero's to 95's empha­sized th is and similar remarks. The low men despaired even though instructors told t h em t.o keep on grinding. The high men were happy, but wondered when and if they would get theirs.

Meanwhile, to add to the con­fusion of trying to find a com­fortable scholastic niche at Cal-

tech , initiation was gOing on. Concentrated studying was out of the question, w ith water fights and initiation stunts to d istract the frosh. Although u pperclass­men had been leer ing at t hem for two weeks and insinuating that horrible incidents would oc­cur during hell week, freshmen found the whole procedure a lot of fun. Constantly subjected to humiliations of any and all kinds, a lmost a ll took them as part of the game. Besides, they r are I y experienced anyth ing worse than being soaked to the skin in the showers or in front of a four-inch fire hose.

As one week passed into an­other a great many fros h , espe­cially those li ving On campus, pmved to themselves that ':Tech is t he place to get two weeks behind in one week." Strangely enough, the weekends full of beach parties, mountain parties, dances and footha ll games don 't ease the increasing pile of work . Finally, on Sunday the s itua­tion has reached the breaking point. Something has to be done. But how? Loud speakers, water brawls, and other extraneous noises discourage good work. To the libraries? They a re closed on Sunday evenings. So the er ring freshman struggles a long amid his own and outside confusion. But he knows th at if he has the time to keep at it long enough, he wi ll see the light.

Frosh may complain as every­body else does; and if discou r­aged, say. that they wish they were somewhere else and didn't have to work so hard. Bu t every­one of them knows that if he makes the grade and stays here at Tech, he has really accom­plished something. I n fact, when p u t to the test, the majority wouldn't trade Cal tech for any other school in the nation.

Those eager looking men whO+r==========::lI:==:::"'; have recently been seen plod­ding their weary way around the cross-country circuit are the members of the Cal tech soccer team. Under the new policy put forth by Coach Huttonback, the team is going to be in top shape for their firs t game with the Thacher School this weekend.

Outlook Good The coach has very high hopes

But Bert LaBrucherie and which they los t but one of their his charges will come out onto fifteen games. Huttonback feels Patterson Field full of s pirit and quite satis fied with the way the co nfidence that they will go team is s haping up, but would home victorious . like to see a little more regular attenda nce at the afternoon prac­t ice sessions.

The fOl'ward line, spurred on by returning lette rmen such as Banjdheo, Wood, and Inglis is being very ably a ided by two newcomers, Ernie Weber and Reinaldo Gutierrez. The half­back line is still being fought over. The leading contenders seem to be Ca rel Otte, Hal Mar­tin, and Pete Price. John Nobles and Ed Welch, last year's full­backs, a re again helping keep the ball from t he Tech goal posts, while Chuck Miller is the new goa lie.

Fu ll Schedule This year's schedule includes

games against UCLA, whom Coach Huttonback very sorely wants us to beat, SC, San Fran­cisco State, and Pomona, as well as several practice games.

Smyth Wins 1st IH Cross Country

Next in terhouse run will be today for the 2 mile event.

Ricketts emerged the v ictor in the firs t round of the interhouse cross-country competition byedk­ing Blacker wi t>h a 9-12 score. Dabney and Fleming placed third and fourth with 32 and 34 points respect ively.

Smyth \Vins Leading the fie ld was Richie

Smyth followed by fellow Row· d ie Gene Shakespea re. A trio of Blackermen, John Ames, John H a llst rom and Hiroshi Kamei, placed 3, 4, and 5.

In winning, Smyth was timed a t 9:21.0 for the 1 % mile course.

fleming IH Sports Pulling out of training cam p,

the prospects for the coming season looked dim fol' t h e Flem­ing baseba ll team.

H owever , with the late signing . of righ t-handed pitcher, Mel

Katz , and the assurance of Steve Pardee that he'd be around to handle t he catching chores de­s pite his recen t a malgamation, the outlook brightened.

The fi [,8t game sa w the big red team tee off on opposing pitchers for an impressive 15 to 4 win over Ricketts . The next game resulted in a 4 to ~O loss to the Blacker House nine, as the Flem­ing alggregation went into a bat­ting slump.

This proved to be short-lived, however, as they came back to defeat Dabney with a 16 to 0 rout.

This game was called because of darkness in the last of the firs t inning with only two outs a nd a Fleming ma n on every base. :

rooms, ,but none with baths." He (to 'her): " Will that be a ll

Asph'jn It seems that every day brings

more headaches to Bert. When I heard from the grapevine that Alan Marsha ll 'had been cornered by Army, I walked into the Ath­letic office in time to see Bert take another aspirin. With the first s tring quarterback gone, Tech hopes look dark. Bul!­anything can h appen at Tech­Oxy game.

FI'osh Spirit The results of las t Saturday's

Frosh game were a litt le disap­poin ting. However I hope the Frosh have not lost any of their I spirit. The posters adve r tis ing their game was cer tainly a new thing at Tech. If the Beaver­babes enthusiasrri would spread a round a little, 1 know Tech's ath let ic picture would ge t much brighter.
