NE phase of the matter of Tech-\ nology'snew acquisition of prop-erty near Jamaica Pond that has

- j- been given prominence by someof the newspapers, is the possi-

;;, bility of the whole Institute's,-' Amoving from its present location.

vr To go into a full discussion ofthis interesting question would

lead far beyond the limits of a TECEi edi-torial, but a brief mention may be made ofsome of the reasons for and against such achange of location.

Technology is surely a growing institutionand, in spite of increased tuition and higherentrance requirements, will no doubt continueto grow. Unfortunately, in our present loca-tion in the heart of a big city there is littleroom for expansion, little chance in particularfor the establishment of suitable dormitoriesfor the students, and absolutely none for theconstruction of anything in the nature of anathletic field. If the Institute could moveout farther in the suburbs, land for all thesepurposes would be readily obtainable. Thoroughly modern buildings could be erected,grouped and arranged more-conveniently andsuitably than is possible in the present loca-tion. A more solid foundation than the filled-in land of the Back Bay could be had for thebuildings containing delicate apparatus, andthe troublesome vibrations due to street carsand street traffic could be avoided. All thesereasons, and many others, have been evidentfor some years past, and will continue to beso in the future. What seems, however, tomake the question of moving a vital one atthe present time is the fact that the requisiteland has just been acquired, and, more im-portant still, that two large and expensivebuildings are about to be erected by the cor-poration. If it is granted that Technologywill ever have to move,- as Columbia Uni-versity finally had to do in New York,--itseems quite evident that the time for mov-ing is right now, before the new buildings goup and Technology becomes so much morefirmly rooted in its present location.

On the other hand, arguments against themove are not lacking. First and foremost,of course, is the great expense which would

Page 10: I --5 Itech.mit.edu/V21/PDF/V21-N27.pdf · 2007-12-22 · ii Oak (irove Creamery ompany, p-] A ,Boylsto , DAIlY LUNCH ROOM - D St.. cor. Berke,, Berke,,

be involved, for although the sale of thepresent property would bring in quite a littlesum, it would not be sufficient, by any means.We understand, too, that the consent of theState would be necessary, before the presentproperty could be disposed of. For a tech-nical school there are undoubtedly greatadvantages in being near the bustle of manu-facture and practical business. In our par-ticular case the Public Library and the ArtMuseum are very desirable neighbors. Wecannot help thinking also of less practicalconsiderations, such as the traditions and as-sociations connected so closely with the pres-ent buildings of the Institute. The alumniof Technology, would no doubt prefer tohave their Alma Mater remain where it is,and if it must grow, to grow around the ori-ginal buildings as a nucleus.

It takes little thought to see that the wholequestion is a very complicated one, but know-ing that, in the competent hands of ourcorporation and its president, we may restassured of its final rightful solution.

'o4 Technique Electoral Committee.

The first meeting of the 'o4 TechniqueElectoral Committee was held Friday, May 2.

Seventeen members of the committee werepresent. Mr. Burnham called the meetingto order and was directly elected chairman.Mr. Wentworth was elected secretary. Aconstitution that had been drawn up wasaccepted with the addition of the clause thatno voting by proxy should be allowed.Messrs. Eastman, Hadley and Wentworthwere elected a committee to make arrange-ments for the art competition.

A second meeting of the committee washeld Monday at 4 P.M. The constitutionwas adopted as a whole, and nominations forthe three associate editors of the TechniqueBoard were made. The meeting adjournedtill Thursday at 4 P.M.

The art competition for positions of arteditors of Technique 'o4 closes on May 24.Details of requirements and conditions areposted on the Technique Bulletin Board inRogers Corridor.

Class of xgoo.

The annual dinner of the Class of I9o00was held at the Technology Club, April I7,1902. Twenty-three men were present. H.A. MacPherson, XIII., was toastmaster, andSimpson, XIII., Fitch, X., and Stearnm, I., gavethe toasts of the evening. The matter of in-formal dinners was brought up' and it is thepresent intention to hold a dinner early inJune.

Mechanical Engineering Society.

The regular meeting of the Mechanical En-gineering Society was held May 2, in RoomII, Engineering B. -

There were a number of items of businesswhich were disposed of. J. A. Holmes,G. B. Symes and M. Dole were proposed formembership; but, owing to the absence ofthe secretary, the new members whose nameswere proposed at the last meeting were notvoted in..

The report of the dinner comnimittee wasaccepted; and then the matter of "shingles"was brought up. This latter was left to acommittee, consisting of F. A. Robbins, P.Weeks and J. F. Doran.

An amendment to the constituti6n was pro-posed, which will be acted upon at the nextmeeting.

After the business was concluded, Mr.Proctor read an interesting article upon theManhattan Power Station in New York, andMr. Ancona gave a review of some magazineshe had looked over for the society.

"Minerva, the Goddess of Wisdom, was the daughter ofJupiter.... Athens was her chosen seat, her own city, awardedto her as the priie of a contest with Neptune, who also aspiredto it. The tale ran that in the reign of Cecrops, the first kingof Athens, the two deities contended for the possession of thecity. The gods decreed that it should be awarded to that onewho producedthe gift most useful to mortals. Neptune gavethe horse, Minerva produced the olive. The gods gave ludg-ment that the olive was the more useful of the two, andawarded the city to the goddess; and it was named after her,Athens, her name in Greek being Athene."-" The Age ofFable," /y Thomas Buifinch.

In Modern Athens.

CENE: The courtyard of the BostonPublic Library. An arcade of whitepillars stretches across the front ofthe scene, behind which is a sunlitsquare of green, with the basin of anunfinished fountain in its center.

Time : A hot summer afternoon, when the air isdrowsy with the distant rumble of the city.

Discovered: A typical Boston man, with features ofthe" Gibson" type, and clothes of the newest cut. Hesits leaning against a pillar and smoking lazily. Heyawns once or twice, and slowly takes a newspaperfrom his pocket and unfolds it. Suddenly he gives aquick start, as though he had just remembered some-thing.

7,pical Bostonian -" Oh, yes 1 I remember, Iput an advertisement in the paper yesterday." (Heholds up the paper and begins to read aloud)"Wanted, good capable girl to do general house-work - no, that's not it - wanted, man to - no-here it is - wanted, an occupant for the fountain ofBoston Public Library. Large salary, good situation,hot and cold water. Only descendants of first fami-lies need apply. Now that sounds well, I am sure.The last clause will, I think, prevent the repetition ofany such trouble as that about the dancing girl whowas here a few years ago. I hope to get some oneof aristocratic appearance this time.

Enter Neptune, a tall, white-haired old man,dressed in a robe of Tyrian purple, and carrying histrident in one hand, while with the other he beckonsto a company of Tritons, nymphs and dolphins, whodance across the stage, singing:

SoNG.

Once loved in Greece and Rome,Far from our watery home,Out of the sea we come,

Out of the sea.

Tritons with horns of shell,Weaving of sound the spellThat guides the sailors well

Over the sea.

Agile young nymphs sublime,Swaying in perfect rhyme,To the waves beating time,

We come to thee.

Look well upon our dance,Let it thy sense entrance,Mortals have rare a chance

Such sights to see.

Look where fair Thetis goes,Treading with silver toes,Blithest of all of those

That throng the sea.

Next in the mystic whirl,Galatea's draperies curlRound her young limbs of pearl,

All symmetry.

Leucothea joins the throng,Palaemon, on a dolphin borne,Laughs, while the Siren's song

Tells of the sea.

Nereus, with solemn grace,Moves with more stately pace,And all the Neread race

Dance with the sea.

As in and out we twine,Softly our green eyes shine,Bright locks that drip with brine,

Shake we in glee.

Then with faint music slow,Melting like passing snow,Back to sea we go-

Back to the sea.

They dance slowly down the arcade, and the songfades away in the distance.

Typical Bostonian (somewhat amazed) - "Avery pretty dance - very pretty indeed. Not up toour modern ballet." (Turning to Neptune) "Mr.Neptune, I believe?"

Neptune (bowing)- "The same, sir, at your ser-vice, Mr. Boston."

73'pical Bostonian (extending his hand) -" Howdo you do? I have heard so much about you that Iam delighted to make your acquaintance, Mr. Nep-tune. Have you colme to see the new Abbey picturesin the Library, or are you going to present Harvardwith a collection of shells?"

Neptune - Well, to tell the truth, Mr. Boston, al-though I should like very much to see the new pic-tures, and although I take great interest in Harvard,I have come to see you this morning on business ofquite a di-ferent nature. Since my temples were de-stroyed, I have earned an honest livelihood by pos-ing as a central figure in those groups with which allimportant fountains are decorated. I saw your ad-vertisemnent in the paper this morning, and beingjust now in need of a good situation, I have come toapply for a place in your fountain. I have been inthe habit of taking out contracts to supply four dol-phins to squirt water from their open mouths, twoTritons blowing shell horns, and three nymphs withinverted pitchers who will stand gracefully gazinginto a central basis, for $75 dollars a month.

Typical Bostonian (delighted) -" Your offer, sir,does you great credit, but this is so sudden, I reallymust have a few days to think it over before I candecide such an important matter."

Enter Pallas Athena, dressed in a flowing garmentof white, with a golden helmet upon her head. Be-hind her come the Three Graces, the first bearingAthena's spear, the second her shield, in which is setthe Gorgon's head, and the third carrying a book, agolf stick and a large pair of eyeglasses, as the mod-ern attributes of Athena.

Typical Bostonian (bowing low)--" Good after-noon, madam. Have I indeed the honor of behold-ing the azure-eyed goddess Athena?"

Athena (smiling) - "I am spending the summer inBoston. In fact, I am doing research work here formy thesis. You see, 1 really think it is time I gotmy Ph.D." (Suddenly perceiving Neptune, who hasstood back since Athena entered) - COh, my gooduncle! How are your waves to-day?"

Neptune-" (S)well, (s)well, thank you, niece. Mybrother Jove is so as to be about, I hope?"

Athena " About as jovial as ever, I thank you."Neptune -"I am glad to hear it. But, my dear

Athena, what have you done with your owl? I hopeyou have left it in a safe place ?" A

Athena " In the safest place I know of, uncle.I left it with papa; and Homer says he has both am-brosial locks and thunderbolts."

(Neptune almost faints.)7ypical Bostonian (anxiously) - "My dear

madam!"

Athenia - " Mr. Boston, while my uncle is recoveringI would like to talk with you on a little matter of busi-ness. I have come to apply for the situation as occu-pant of your library fountain. Indeed, I will makeyour fountain the most beautiful in the world, and areal fountain of wisdom, by posing in its center myselfas the guardian and patroness of this fair city ofBoston."

Typical Bostonian "Well, you see, Miss, as Iwas just saying to Mr. Neptune, here, I must have afew days to consider your proposal. However, I willsend you word as soon as I come to any decision onthe matter. Your address ?"

Athena- "Beacon Street, 'The Olympia,' suitex6."

Typical Bostonian " And your price for occupy-ing the fountain? Of course I should want threemaidens to hold inverted helmets from which thewater might spout in three streams and fall aroundyou; and an owl on your shoulder would also add tothe effectiveness of the grouping."

Athena -" I should be happy to supply all thesethings, and throw in a carved Gorgon's head or twoby way of ornamentation, for $ioo a month."

Tpical Bostonian -" $ioo ! Why, Mr. Neptuneoffers his services, with four dolphins, two Tritonsand three nymphs for $75 a month."

Athena -" My uncle! I hope he is not so pre-sumptuous as to aspire to occupy this center of Bos-ton, I may say this holy of holies, the fountain of thePublic Library !"

Neptune -" And why should I not aspire to thissituation, niece? Am I not the earth-shaking Prosei-don? And, by the Styx! I need this situation morethan you. You can teach school and win scholar-ships; but I have a hard time to earn an honest liv-ing, what with Neread trade unions demanding higherwages every year, and my Tritons petitioning Dianafor eight-hour tides, I shall be ruined if I do not geta good situation soon."

Athena - " Well, go content yourself with gardenfountains; they have not yet all gone out of fashion,and leave such a prominent position as this to yourbetters."

Neptune " That is the way with the women now-a-days, they push the men out of all the most lucra-tive professions. I suppose you would like to haveme go home and clean house in Olympia?"

Athena -" Well, you know you have plenty ofwater to do it with, uncle; anyway, you had betternot try for this position. I tell you I am determinedto occupy this fountain myself. It is my right ! "

Veptune - " And I tell you I shall set my dolphinplaying in it to-morrow ! "

liest !".liAptune (shaking his trident)-" Impertinent girl,

look thy last upon the light of day, for, by the Styx!thou diest

Typical Bostonian -" Oh, madam, oh, sir, calmyourselves! We will settle this matter by arbitra-tion. I have a most brilliant and original idea.The one of you which can bestow the most preciousgift upon this city shall become its patron, and shallstand in the center of the Public Library fountain.Do you agree ?"

Ntptune and Athena (together)-" We agree."Athena -" Now, Uncle Neptune, what can you

give th'is city?"Veptune (thoughtfully) -" Did you say, Mr. Bos-

ton, that the idea of this contest is original withyou ?"

Typical Bostonian -" Certainly. Why?"Neptune-" Because I feel just as though I had

been in this same situation before; you know howyou feel that way sometimes. It's a very odd sensa-tion."

Athena " Hlow strange ! I also have that feelingjust now. I believe it can be explained, however,for the action of the brain when stimulated by "-

NVeptlune (hastily interrupting)" Oh, yes, I amsure it can be explained, are you not, Mr. Boston?"

Typical Bostonian -" Yes, I am perfectly sure itcan be explained, as Miss Athena says,- perfectlysure. And now, what can you give to Boston, Mr.Neptune ?"

Neptune strikes the ground with his trident, andan automobile rushes across the stage.

Athena (lips curled scornfully)- " Behold my gift !"she cries, touching the pavement with her spear. Agreen bud pushes its way up between the stones. Ina moment a clump of slender stems are seen, eachbearing a quickly swelling flower bud. Anothermoment, and ten Lawson pinks have burst into fullbloom, making the -air rich with their fragrance.

Suddenly a clock from within the building beginsto strike, and Neptune, the automobile, Athena andthe flowering pinks disappear together.

Typical Bostonian (waking with a start, and look-ing around him) - , What a queer dream I have had!Why, it is almost dark ! I must have slept all theafternoon."

(He stretches and yawns, picks up his paper andgoes off muttering) " What a remarkable dream ! Iwonder what will really be done about the fountain,after all ?"

The wallscaling squad did some very fast work on thelower wall, but there was much delay in scal-ing the higher wall. Those doing guardduty did very effective work, and to them ismuch of the praise for the smoothness of theevening's work to be given. Best of all,however, was the Tech band. It consistedof twenty pieces and was at last able to carryan intelligible air through a whole movementand do it well.

R. C. Grady, who played on the FreshmanFootball Team, and who left the Institute lastfall, has successfully passed the examinationsat Annapolis, and will enter this week.

The Chicago & Alton Railroad, throughits passenger department, has presented tothe civil engineering department a collectionof eighty-one. prints, showing interesting fea-tures of construction along the line of thatroad.

At the regular Wednesday drill there wasa practice inspection as a preparation for theregular inspection, which is to be held nextwee1:. After this short drill a competition inthe manual was conducted. There were twosquads: a senior, which consisted of men whohad drilled before coming to Tech, and ajunior, in which only those who had neverdrilled before were admitted. About twentymen took part in the former and thirty in thelatter. For each squad there was a goldmedal for the first and a silver for the secondprize. To purchase these an entrance feeof twenty-five cents was charged. Furthernotice will be given in next week's TECH.

Tech, '04 -7; Tech,'o5- 6.The Sophomores defeated the Freshmen

last Saturday afternoon at the South Endgrounds by a score of 7 -6. This game isthe first of a series of three to be played by thelower-class men, and a good deal of interestwas taken in it. The game was from thestart a very close and exciting one, and thethree hundred cheering classmates of the con-testants, together with the Freshman Band, did

much to add to the excitement of the after-noon's program. President Pritchett waspresent, and evidently enjoyed the gamegreatly.

Both of the teams played a very good gamethroughout, though the Sophomores playeda slow game in the beginning of the sixth in-ning. This seemed the turning-point of thegame, for after that the Sophomores wokeup, and the Freshmen scored no more. Somevery fine individual plays were made by Gray,Lang and Metcalf for the Sophomores, whilethe most noticeable playing on the Freshmanside was done by Steinberg and Jewett.

Professor Allen Umpired.

By way of recuperation after the variedexcesses of Junior Week, the 'o3 civil engi-neers indulged in an afternoon at the nationalgame on Thursday, May I. The basis ofdivision was the manner of seating in thedrawing-room, and after due considerationof the compass the east and west sides ofsaid room were pitted against each other.Messrs. Howes and Drake acted as self-appointed captains of the nines respectively.Professor Allen, upon invitation, consentedto perform the functions of umpire, and im-midiately telephoned down town for a rulebook. In the days of his scintillation on thediamond the base-runner was "put out" bygraciously hitting him with a thrown ball.Trhe game was played at Franklin Field,called - any old time. As most of the fel-lows had not played ball for several years,and practice was prohibited, some phenomenalplaying resulted. The scorer attempted tokeep account of errors, but as he is not yeta finished candidate for suicide he wiselyabandoned this plan and contented himselfwith recording runs. The playing was souniversally remarkable that it is difficult topick stars. Davis, however, gained immor-tal fame in his position in left field. Strangeto relate, the decisions of the umpire stoodwithout dispute- the pupils recognized themaster and dared not question his knowledgeof curves. It is due the umpire, however, tostate that, with all other considerations de-murely seated in the back pew, his decisionswere entirely just and beyond the questioningof the noisy rabble (not Rubble -he didn'tplay). The victorious nine, the East Siders,magnanimously relinquished all claims uponthe ball at the close of the game, and pre-sented the precious sphere to the umpire." In a few well-chosen words" (we have thisphrase in electro) appreciation of the giftwas expressed in a subsequent lecture. Asa postscript, it is interesting to note that 'o3,Course I., is a pretty sore crowd. Smith(famed as a pitcher) claims that his earsalone escaped the infectious lameness.

Following is the line-up, with runs for thefive and one-half innings played. The East

Siders, being already in the lead, did not taketheir turn at the bat in the sixth inning.

Mr. Breed was expected to officiate as",rooter" in his own original manner, buthe failed to put in an appearance, and thefellows were obliged to forego the pleasureof his anecdotal presence.

Track Athletics.The track men have been putting in their

final work this week, before the meet. Thework on the whole, when compared to thatreported from Brown and Dartmouth, doesnot seem so very discouraging.

Brown has entered a small team, but theyare mostly unknown men, so that it is some-what difficult to predict their chances. Theyseem to think they will win the bicycle race,and also do something worth counting in thesprints and distance runs.

Dartmouth has a large team entered, andwill come down prepared to sweep every-thing before her. Maybe she will, but Techhas a few men entered, too. When they seeH. S. Baker walking away with the half andthe mile under his arm, Riley and Worces-ter carrying the two mile together, R. V.Brown and Boggs tearing up the sprints,Curtis going clear up to the clouds in thepole vault, and Winchester in the weights,well, maybe they'll sweep everything, butthey will have some pretty good brooms todo it with.

The Freshman Band will attend the meet,and fill in when Tech isn't cheering.

Every Tech man should bring his flag,and cheer his team until he is hoarse; hewon't have any team to be ashamed of thisyear.

On account of an injury to his leg, it ispossible that Captain Baker will be unableto run next Saturday.

Cross-country.

On Saturday the new Cross-country Asso-ciation held its first handicap run.

The president of the association, Mr. F. H.Hunter, had chosen with considerable carean eight-mile course, starting and finishingat the corner of Bellevue and RutledgeStreets, Highland Station, in West Roxbury.From the start red flags marked the coursepast West Roxbury Station, and by field andwoodpaths to the base of Bald Pate, thenceby alternate stretches of roads -and grassyfields back to Highland.

Ten men completed the run in excellentcondition. One, who had not been over thecourse, found it too difficult for the allottedtime.

E. L. Ovington easily took first place, pass-ing the earlier starters and finishing with agood lead over his would-be companion.

F. H. Hunter seems to have been makingsome far-sighted calculatiods, for he surprisedevery one, took second place, and next toOvington covered the distance in least time.K. D. Jewett finished strong in third place.

Ovington made by far the best time, cover-ing the eight miles in 54 minutes, 25 seconds.Hunter, Haynes, Jewett, Frazer and Palmerhad-about equal times, all being desirous ofthe time prize- the letters, etc.

The race as a whole was somewhat over-shadowed by the nearness of the TriangularMeet, many of the prominent runners of theassociation being in training for other dis-tances at the coming games.

The following men finished in order:

This finishes cross-country work for thespring. The coming fall pleasure runs orhare and hound chases will be resumed andteams chosen to meet representatives fromother colleges in cross-country races.

For years THE LOUNGER has talked about profess-ors, about instructors, about Engineering Alley, aboutco-eds and other equally interesting subjects. Hislife has not been easy, for it is hard to be truthful.Many times he has been asked why he did not turnthe powerful limelight of his stupendous reasoningpowers on himself instead of upon the luckless vic-tims of his fevered imagination. Accordingly he hasprepared a little paper for publication, which he begsto present in the first personal with the title:

The Secret of My Success, or Why I am Not at Harvard.Like ail great men, I was born in a log cabin.

The log of the cabin in which I was born must havebeen zero, for it was too little for such a great mind.Well, never mind. My abode was only a rough bark-covered hut, papered inside with wrapping paper.Many a night I was kept awake not only by the bark,which is a stale joke, but also by a peculiar noise asof ghosts rapping. I came to the conclusion that itwas only the wrapping paper. I tell you I did notget my share of the pleasures of this life. Theploughshare was all I got. After my work in thefields was completed for the day, I studied at nightby the light of a few fireflies connected in series.This light, I afterwards learned at Tech, is only theluminescent phosphorescence of obscure luminiferousether waves. But the firefly lives through it all. Iused to sell my shoes and stockings and go barefoot,that I might buy some freehand letter-plates, so thatI could the better pass my entrance examinations. Iam convinced that the secret of all great men's suc-cess, including my own, is work. Take the great cor-poration leaders, for instance. Think of the thousandsof people who are working for them! After passingthe entrance examinations, the next thing I learned todo was to pass the Brunswick Exchange -withoutgoing in. Farm life had made me so shrewd thatwhen I went to the co-op. to spend a few cents onbooks at publisher's + author's + co-op. prices, thegirls from the Latin School used to yell at me:"There goes the terror of the co-op.; the only manwho ever looked inside a book to see if a page wasmissing! Three times three 'divided by the squareroot of pie for the terror of the co-op." But whydwell longer on these pleasant memories? In clos-ing, let me say again, if I have not made myself suffi-ciently clear, that the secret of success is work-either your own or somebody else's.
