Dean Burton Opens Address By Intro-ducing Professor Emerson
Over four hundred quietly enthusi-astic students attended the convo-cation <pi the American Students' Re.construction Associltion held in10-250 Tuesday noon. Dean Burtonmade a short opening address and in-troduced Professor Emerson of twearthitectural department who r epre-sents Technology on the Americant"niversityCommittee. Professor Em-en<-Xrn outlined the general plan. The--ov-ernment of France is to furnishthe food and quarters of the men whogo, but their other expenses will haveto be net by the association.
It is hoped that eacl collegle willraise enough to send its own unit andthe 1Id. I. T. committee have starteda (li-ive for $19,000.00 to take care oftheir expenses. All contributionssllould be sent to C7. Coleman Carveri.treasui er, in the Roaers Building. itis honTed that many of the men who_-a will be able to defray their ownexpenses, but inability to do this willnot hurt the chances of a man whois otherwise fitted to lo. The neces-sary requirements are: first. the de-P-ir! to help France. and second, thbknowz-ledce that will allow this de-sire tc materialize.

the fruit the Brown tennis squad
gathered at Longwocd on Wednesdayafternoon. Under Bill Cauldwell's
leadership the Technology racquetwielders harvested the other twelve,winning every one of the four singlesmatches as well as the two doubles.Herm Brcockman staged the mostspectacular exhibition of the conflict,winning his duel with J.

Two of-the matches were playft.1 in-doors on the linoleum covered courts,while the remainder braved the mor-ose weather on the oblongs outside.Nro comparison can be made wsithlast year's showing since Br uinsteered clear of the Beaver, evidentlya Mwise course in v iewv of the fur fl-ing on W'ednesday.

Secretary of Intercollegiate LeagueGives Policy
John Rothschild, who recently tookthe position of Executive Secretaryof the Intercollegiate Libseral League,has refuted the allegation that theLeague was detrimental to Americansafety, or to the existing government.The league is entirely separate fromthe Intercollegiate Socialist Society.Its purpose is to broaden the viewsof those interested in politics, andto better prepare the college mzen fortheir future duties as citizens ofthe United States.
.\Ir. Daniel Willard,. Pi esident ofthe Baltimore and Ohio Railr oad, inia recent address to the "Mass Ag-gies," expressed it as his opinion thatlabor disputes between managers andemployes were being given exag-erated seriousness.

4000 men hav e reported at theClinic's Office fromt October I tillMarch 1, anld the office in Building 3handles betw een 65 to 70 sick stu-dents daily. The doctor states, how-ever, that most of the men that re-port at the office have minor illn~ess-es and that the student body as awNhole has been exceedingly fortunateso far as serious diseases. He saysthat this particularly holds true fora1l kinds of contagious diseases es-pecially diphtheria, not one case ofw hich has been reported to the of-fice. The clinic is so confident thatits succpss in dealing with contagiousdiseases is due to the rule that allpersons remaining from classes forsome time because of illness must re-port for examination before returningto their Institute work that it is hav-ing posters of the rule printed andwill have them distrib utedl throughthe Institute.

OUR DEAN LEAVES US
THE news that Dean Burton has resigned and will leave us illJune has struck a pang in the heart of every man at Tech-nology. It is very bard to part with a man who has made
such an impression on the students as has the Dean. When thenews of his resignation was given out, many of us learned forthe first time of his extraordinary accomplishments in scientificlines. in feact one was given the impression that we were losingessentially and solely an eminent man of science. But we are.really losing much more; a man of prepossessing personality, whoinspires the confidence of every student and whose amiable na-ture and sympathetic understanding of the men has wvon for himsuch a place in their hearts as no other man can expect to win.We bid Dean Burton Godspeed and hope that his life away fromu~s may be as pleasant and as full of happiness as possible.

A SPLENDID RECORD
NNOWN that the annual election of the officers of the T. A. C.has taken place it is not inappropriate to survey the workof the retiring- administration. W'e find in it a shining ex-
ample of perseverance and labor ill pursuit of a definite aim.Steadily and unobtrusivrely, this youngff organization set itself toits task and its resullts do honor and credit to the men engaged.It has been a difficult work, this business of making, athletics atTech, but the men wcho have striven to attain this end have donewell and have made smoother the wday for those that follows after.
The complex problems confronting the T. A. C. where met bythe formation of three cardinal committees; publicity, entertaim-ment and arrangements. The only source of revenue alas the saleof memberships; this financial operation netted $1963.00. Andwith less than tw o thousand dollars in the treasury the threecommittees set to stork. The publicity branch sass that Techteams weere properly advertised, not only by posters about theInstitute, but in the columns of daily papers. This work weas welldone. The city's sporting editors arranged for regular corre-spondents who covered Tech for their papers. These scribes putinto print many inches of press stuff about teams and events atTechnology. In tw o cases regular columns headed "M. I. T. Mites"and "Technicalities" were devoted to news and gossip of athleticsat the Institute. Photography of teams and individuals was en-ergetically handled and pictures of various groups of athletes wereposted, not only on the bulletin boards, but in the Xwindowrs ofdowntown stores. Altogether the publicity succeeded ill a largeway in the work of putting Tech on the athletic map
The entertainment committee arrang-ed informal dances afterbasketball games to draw the crowd. These affairs became verypopular. The committee also took charge of the housing andentertaining of visiting t~e2rns. It arranged special meals in W~alk-er and handled ushering at various meets..
The arrangements committee was charged with ticket sellingand by sending agents to sell tickets in the dormitories, fraternityhouses, and Walker, in addition to the regular sale in the lobbyit materially increased the gate receipts. To the lot of this branchfell the thankless and distasteful task of setting up the seats formeets in Walker and taking them down after the event. Thiswas a necessary chore and, despite its hard and unappealing na-ture, it was performned with cheerfulness and dispatch. The con-tribution of this committee to the general success of the T. A. C.has been very great.
The financial end of the club has been administered withskill and acumen. The receipts of the organization have beenexpended in aiding six teamns by donation's of specific sums and incarrying on a general program of work in the interest of athletics.No little jutdgment was required in making, disbursements andapportioning allowances to variouls teams but the responsibilityhas been well discharged.
No one can study the annual reports of the constituent com-mittees of the T. A. C. without being moved to applaud the splen-did efforts of that organization. The tasks which came to thehands of the leaders were startling in size and inmeasureablydifficult. It took courage, not a momentary heroism, but a steady,day to day courage, to attack the obstacles and hammer a wlaythroug~h to success. The officers of the club had to labor with thevigor of pioneers to start the new organization and to perfect itsfunctions. They have not spared themselves or stinted their ef-forts. And justly has their success been large. In the quickenedspirit of Tech, in the augmented attendance at games, in theestablishment of basketball, in the assistance rendered evseryteam, in the palpable boost given athletics at the Institute, in thegrandstand itself, the men who worked for the T. A. C. can readin terms of concrete attainments the story of a year of unflagoingClabor.
To those undergraduates wrho have no clear sense of the valueto Technology of the athletic club the achievments of the pastyear form an excellent basis for judgement. By their fruits shallyou know them. The suem of the resullts a~ttnin,-d is great bart tothis should be added the outs-poken appreciation and admiringconogratulations of the Institute at laroge to make tip the balance dto the credit of the of ficers of the T. A. C.

Technology's yearling oarsmen willgo into action again tomorrow vhenthey will oppose Stone School withtheir first eight. The encounterw-hich is scheduled for 3.30 o'clockwtill be run off over a course of oneand a half miles, which will extendapproximately fron the Cottage FarmBridge to Wt'alker MAemorial. Thedirection of the race will be depend-ent upon weather conditions.
Due to the naming of a first fresh-man four, which will probably re-main intact during the r emainder ofthe season, a slight shake-up in thefirst eight Xwas necessitated. ThoughPat 'Manning has intimated that thefinal selection for the first froshcrewss have been mlade. any mlarkedimprov ement in the course of thes eason on the part of those pullingin the second boats will no doubtwarrant advancem ent.
Coach Still Shifting MenThe coach of the Cardinal and
Gray crews is still shifting the menin the Varsity shell about at such arate, that the aspirants themselveshavxe no idea from day to day as tothe men waho will be seated in theboat for the practice spins. The firstrace for the Vrarsity- oar smen is stilla week distant. so that aniple op-portunity to make a selection fromtthe material at hand still exists.
Tile yearlings have been improvingsteadily since their first contest ofthe season which took place on Mon-(lay against the Brow n and Nicholscombinations, which ranks among thebest school boy fours on the rivler.
day afternoon the sign-up cards were
,ziven out, and the date of Mayt 11definitely settled on as the day forthe banquet. The committee incharge of the affair has been busyand has arranged a number of inter-esting and live features for the even-ing . Among thein is a foul-piececrc hestra.
The speakers have not been official-il chosen as yet but it is rumoredthat they will be live enough to keepeven a freshman awake.

The resignation &f Dean Alfred E.Burton has been announced and willtake effect waith the end of the pres-ent school year. Dean Burton hasbeen in this position since the officewas created in 1902, and his workhas made him an enviable position inthe esteem of the graduates of the In-stitute. The cause of his resignationis: concern for the health of his wife,who is in California where Dean Bur-ton will go when relieved of his du-ties at Technology.
Professor Burton was born in Port-land, Mie., in 1857 and graduatedfrom the engineering school of :Bow-,doin College in 1878. While there hewas a member of Delta Kappa Epsi-lon and roomed with Rear AdmiralPeary. It was at Admiral Peary'ssuggestion that in 1896 he organizedan expedition to North Greenland,where the pendulum and magneticobserv ations he took are among themost valuable determinations thathave e her been made in the Arcticregions.
Eclipse observations also occupiedhis attention for he organized all exZ-pedition in 1900 to observe a totaleclipse of the sun at Washington, Ga.The following year he organized anexpedition of Technology men to goto Sumatra to observe a similar phe-nom enon.
Dean Burton was connected withthe United States Coast and GeodeticSurvey in 1879 when he was chosenafter a difficult competitive examinla-tion to be a topographer. In 1880 he,volunteered to go to Memphis, Tenn.,In connection with the laying out ofthe -sewerage system, a post of difi-i,culty because of the recent yellowfever epidemic. Later under his di-rection a base line apparatus was de-veloped by Technology students,which proved of value to the survey.In 1894 he was sent to Germany bysome citizens of Boston to report onlthe Alter Basins of Hamburg, Ger-many. Since 1905 he has been one ofthe overseers of B~owdoin College.
Dean Burton began his connectionwith the Institute in 1882, when heaccepted the post of instructor of

Spring, Gentle SpringHowu Wondrous Thou Art
Spring-that gently calling mis-tress of youths' fancies-has in-,deed come again. With the sough-ing of the last March wind shestepped in io woo young men fromtheir studies and their classes outinto the open to breath thedream- mpelling, balmy air. Howinsidious and entrancing are heradvances! And how hard to re-sist!'
Her call-the call of the wild,open woodlandspenetrated to 10-250, sometimes called EastmanHall, during one of ProfessorShugrue's mercenary lectures inthe real ms of political economy.Hardly had he started until thefirst dari ng ten had led the wayfor the more studious of the' lot.Then, the pathway broken, theyflood was started. Not even 'theembalming influence of the Springissue of Voo Doo could halt thestampede. They went by tens,then by twenties, they swarmedover the seats, they forgot theirhats ,in their mad endeavor toreach the door. Only one caredenough for the old skypiece tocome sneaking back to get It.
But their exodus was nothingcompared to what it was when thelights went out in preparation forthe Illustrated part of the lecture.Then, with a roar, not figurative,but literal, they arose and left asone man. A few faithful onesactive members of Brown Bag,I nc.,-stayedl until ProfessorShugrue dismissed them twentyminutes before the ends of thehour.
How truly ttemarkable are thetaking ways of the fair goddess!

Plans for Senior Week activities
are maturing rapidly. The festiv-
ities will be ushered in by the Bacca-
laureate Sermon, Sunday, June 5, at
Trinity Church, where Bishop William
Lawrence will address the Class of1921.
Bishop Lawrence is undoubtedlythe foremost member of the Pro-testant Episcopal Church in theU~nited States. He was especiallyprominent during the war in con-nection with the Church War Conm-mission, of which he was chairman,in aiding service men in this coun-try. After the war he was in chargeof raising a church pension fund ofover eight million dollars in oneyear. His term as Bishop of Massa-chusetts has lasted since 1893.
Preparatory to the service, mem-bers of the Senior Class will assembleat Rogers building on Boylstonstreet and march thence to thechurch in Copley square, carryingclass and Institute banners. Seats,closed off by cardinal and gray, willbe reserved for the men in the frontof the church. Room for friends andrelatives will be available directlybehind the class. If enough membersof the Faculty show an interest, aspecial section will be reserved fortheir use.
Dr. Mann, Rector of Trinity Church,is co-operating with the chairman ofthe Baccalaureate committee, G. EFargo, and L. W. Conant, firstmarshal, to make the affair a suc-cess. The Trinity Choir, reputed tobe the best in New England, willassist in the service which will besimple and non-sectarian.

COMMUNICATIONS
To the Editor of THE TECH:In a recent issue of THE TECH
there appeared in the write-up of theMusical Clubs banquet, mention ofthe new society to be formed, and inconnection with this was cited as asimilarity, the Tech Show Society ofMasque. There was. unfortunately,an erroneous impression created bythe statement 'the government of theShow by Masque," and it is to thisthat we wish to take exception.Mlasque is the honorary society of
Tech Show and solely an honorarysociety. It has absolutely no con-nection with the government of thnShow-, which is entirely in the handsof the General Manager. Masque mendo, it is true, function as advisors,and justly so because of their lon-association with the Show, but theretheir pouwer cewses. Masque doesnot present Tech Show as the Tri-an-le Club does the Prineetontheatricals, or our own Woop-GarooSociety the "Voo Doo", but insteadTech Show is an open, democraticstudent activity with no politicalaffiliation to any society and run onthe policy of the best man for tilenosition, or as some one aptly put it"nush not pull". Appointments of theSho- Management are given first toMasque only as a custom and theyhave no power to pass on these ap-pointments. Candidates for Masqueare selected froom the Cast, Chorus.Ballet. Orchestra, and Managementand are picked on their past andDrobable future services and as menon whose judgment the General Man-ager can rely on as sound.
It is sincerely hoped that this com-munication will clear up the popularopinion of this honorary society, es-pecially when a new one is about tobe launched on the same principles,that is to serve as a reward. a meansof keeping up and promoting inter-est in the activity, and as a sourceof criticism for the management be-fore it puts its ideas into practice,and not as a club or society to holdcontrol over an activity for selfishinterest.

To the Editor of THE TECH:In your issue of Fridas-, April 22,
there appeared a criticism by theLounger of the imanner in which theWalker Memorial is being run. Firstof all, this is a poor means of crit.-icizing because the offender does notcare to give his namre and in this par-ticular case a visit to the WalkerMemorial Committee office wouldhave sufficed.
The Walker Memorial -was con-structed for a student activitiesbuilding as well as a recreationcenter for those not inclined towardthe former. The Library, Faculty,and Alumni Room, and Ea,st andWlest Lounges, are open all during theday until 5 o'clock to those who wishoto read, studs-, or play gnames andltwo of them are open until 10 o'cloclvin the evening. Remembering thisand the above purposes for 'which thebuilding was constructed, would thew-riter of the Lounger have thev arious committees and activitiescome to the Walker, get the materialthev w-ant to use in the meeting, and*>o back to a roomi in the Institute,lebavin,- the MWallder for the exclusive1*SP of those whloce interest lies onlyin wh-lat they can grind otlt of books?Tf the offender had served on any ofthese committees w-hielh annoy him,lie w-ouldc probably realize that quitea fews of their meetings last untilaftior 6 o'cloclk, which I believe is theclosing time for all rooms in the In-stitute buildings.
W\·e all like to read but wherewould Tech stand in the collegiateworld if evervone of the ten like thetwenty, chose to sit in the Librarynnl reFad diiring their snare time andfrom 5 to 6 o'clock? It is the workof these few that helps make Techwhat it is, so that you are proud totell where tou attend college. Theseecorlmittees nmeet to plan variousforms of entertain-ment for you andall others, yet roll would have themPft out of the rooms of the Walkerfrom 5 to 6 o'clock, after being openyou all day.
All that I ask of the writer of theT minper and the offended twenty, isthat they remember the purposes forwhich the Walker Memorial wasbuilt and then be reasonable.

I TECHNOLOGY'S RECONSTRUCTION UNIT
rp-HE sending of American university students to France thissummer to aid in the reconstruction of the devastated re-gions of that country is an act which will be of incalculable
permanent benefit both to France and to the United States, and totheir future amicable relations.
The birth of the American Students Reconstruction Associ-ation means much for the "entente cordiale" between France andAmerican architecture as it still enable students of proven ability
from the universities and colleges throughout the United Statesto visit France yearly during their vacation months, to live withthe French people, and there to secure training under the direc-tions of some of the most famous architects in the world.
It is an honor to the Institute to be able to send men over toFrance this summer, and the project deserves the hearty supportof those who are interested in the promotion of friendly relationswith our er stwhile partners in arms, and of those who are inter-ested in seeing Technology active in a project of so great possi-bilities.

A. L. Merrill, Secretary.
(By E. I .N. A.)

ACQUET WIELDERS PLAY BROWN TOMORROWi
PICK TWO MILE TEAM PLAY BROWNTennis Team Is Ready For
First Meet
Technology will meet Brown at theLongwood Courts, Chestnut Hill, to-morrow afternoon at 3:00 o'clock inthe first tennis matches lof theseason. AltliouIli both teams havesuffered as to practice, fron the badweather, fast play may be expec-ted, especiallv as the Beavers havea veteran team. The first three menhave been picked for the meet, Herm.Broockman, Bill Cauldwell and DickCarver. The rest of the team willbe picked from McWane, Elliot,Scott and 'West. These men arerunning very close. Broockman andCauldwell will play the first doubles.
Practicing for the last week at theLongwood courts, the team has beer'whipped into shape with the help ofcoach L. B. Rice. The coul ts wereavailable through the courtesy of theLongwood Cricket Club. Practicewill continue there until the Institutecourts are ready for use.
Those interested in seeing somegood tennis will do well to follow theTechnology team. The courts canbe reached by Chestnut Hill car,or by Boston & Albany from TrinityPlace.
T. E. N. IN FOR BAD SESSION
The sun will hardly beat the base-ball sines of the Tech EngineeringNews and THE TECH to the day'swork next Friday morning. The sec-ond match of the journalistic baseballseries is scheduled for 7:30 o'clock.The newspaper staff possesses awhirlwind infield with Kattwinkel atfirst, Abbott on second, Bromleyshort, and Rubins taking care of thelast corner. The outfield is notboasted of so widely but with JackKeck in the box the outer gardensare likely to remain undisturbed.Turner, the magazine's hurling hero,is quite effective but absolutely allprognostications point to a stormy-period for him on Friday.
While there is no doubt that THETECH will bring home the well-known bacon it may be interesting tonote that the T. E. N. pastimersproved better ducks last Friday. Infive innings, vinid an, intermittentdownpour, they captured an excitingand closely contested game, 9-1.
FRESHMAN BASEBALL NINEMEETS ANDOVER TOMORROW

There is no discouragementamong the men on account of theDean defeat, as last year the Frank-lin men beat Andover On the fewfair days this week the men practicedhard.

Saturday was a cold and rainy day,so late in the morning ManagerPhelps telephoned Worcester andagreed to call off the game scheduledfor that afternoon.
Attempts will now be made tosqueeze Wt7orcester into the now over-loaded schedule, for some afternoonin the near future.
