ktion Wednesday afternoon, ExecutiVe Committee approved a motion whichzakes several suggestions to the administration regarding this topic, one ofhich is that the compulsory nature of the system now in effect be dropped.

The original motion, which set the stage for the current developments, wasade before Institute Committee by Arnold Amstutz '58 at last week's meeting.t that time the matter was turned over to Execomm, and full power waslaced in this body. Now, having passed and fully approved the motion, Ex-;omm wants a vote of confidence by Institute Committee before the matter isissed on to the administration t

The resolution, as it now stands, embodies five main points, among which

Plans for a nuclear reactor to bebuilt in Cambridge by the Massachu-setts Institute of Technology for re-search and education in peaceful usesof the atom have been approved bythe Atomic Energy Commission, itwas announced in Washington Mon-day.

A medical therapy room beneaththe reactor, the first such arrange-ment in the United States, will makepossible research and treatment ofcancer of the brain, Dr. C. RichardSoderberg, dean of engineering atMIT, said. The reactor is designed tofacilitate the training of urgentlyneeded nuclear engineers and for sci-entific and industrial research.

"It will be used by students andprofessors from a greater number ofdepartments than any other researchfacility at MIT. It will be the firstreactor to be built in New Englandand can serve to advance New En-gland activity in nuclear researchand industrial developrment. Acces-sibility of the reactor to the Insti-tute and to the medical and indus-trial center of the region is highlyimportant."

The proposal for the reactor hasbeen fully discussed with GovernorHerter and officials of State Depart-ments of Public Safety, Public Health,Labor and Industry and Civil De-fense and with the Metropolitan Dis-trict Commission. Application is to bemade for a building permit from thecity of Cambridge. Construction, byACF Industries of New York, couldstart soon after the granting of afinal permit. The cost is estimatedmore than $2,000,000.

The Nuclear Engineering Programat MIT is headed by Dr. MansonBenedict, professor of nuclear engi-neering. Dr. Theos J. Thompson, whodirected construction of a researchreactor at Los Alamos for the AECbefore coming to MIT is in charge ofthe project assisted by Thomas Cant-well, research associate.

Pledge Problems MetBy I F C Committee

./

Last Sunday the IFC PledgeTraining Committee met with repre-sentatives of all fraternities on cam-pus. This was the second of this typeof meeting designed to stimulatethinking about pledge training. Rep-;resentatives of the Institute at themeeting were Dean Fassett, Prof.Powell, and Dr. Shell.

During the first meeting which washeld on April 22 general topics con-cerning pledge training were discuss-ed. It was pointed out that the re-sponsibility for pledge training restswith the whole group and not withthe pledgemnaster or any other per-son alone. It was stressed that a goodexample should be set by all and es-pecially the seniors. Dean Fassett,Dr. Shell and Prof. Sheppard attend-ed this meeting.

Specific points about pledge train-ing were discussed at last Sunday'smeeting. Some of them were the wisepledge and introvert, social life ver-sus studying first term, manners, thebig brother system, ways of gettinga class united, and study conditionsfor freshmen.

Separate meetings with each houseare being planned in order to evalu-ate the individual fraternity's pledgeprogram. One or two faculty mem-bers will attend these meetings.

program, ROTC benefits at MIT aregreatly limited, and ROTC, in its pres-ent form, does little toward giving themilitary the true potential which MIThas to offer; the "esprit de corps", sonecessary to this type of organizationneeds much improvement. All of thesefactors contribute to a much belowoptimum program, which hampersthose students sincerely interested insuch training. Therefore, Execommadvises the abolishment of compul-sory Reserve Officers Training, andthe establishment of a proglram whichis nearer to "MIT caliber."

As of the time of this committee'sapproval, this resolution has gone asfar as it can go in the realm of studentgovernment. Only the faculty and ad-ministration can alter curriculum pol-icy, so the next move, and the mostsignificant, will be made by them. Atthe present time, this faction's senti-ment toward the student proposal isnot known, but action will probablybe taken in the near future.

The reactor will have uses in manyfields of science and technology, suchas:

Experiments to determine effectivemethods of sterilizing foods, medical

supplies and other materials.Studies of mechanical wear. Piston

rings, for example, can be made ra-dicactive and the rate at which theyare worn in an engine can be deter-mined with great precision. It ishoped that such studies will lead toimproved metal alloys, better designand better lubrication.

Alternating recollections with wit,Poet Louis Untermeyer condensed thelife stories of twenty-odd "Makersof the Modern World" into a one-hour LSC lecture Tuesday eveningat Kresge Auditorium. The subjects-scientists, statesmen, and strip-tease artists-were all selected fromwhat Mr. Untermeyer desclribed as"my latest, biggest, best, most ex-pensive book . . . six dollars andfifty cents . . . on sale at your near-est hardware store."

Thle book deals with revolution-aries, "trouble-makers as well asmakers," each of whom wrought somesignificant change in his particularfielU during the last century. AmongUntermeyer's more obvious choiceswere Darwin, Pasteur, Stalin, Hitlerand Roosevelt. Sigmund Freud, whosehundredth birthday has just past,was also mentioned: "He started awhole new vocabulary, a whole newliterature . . . His discovery that themind is a dynamo of the unconsciousranks with Harvey's discovery thatthe heart is a pump."

Modern writers, especially WaltWhitman, dlrew praise: "They haveshown that nothing is commonplace.""Frank Lloyd Wright and otherAmerican architects," says Unt2r -

meyer, 'have changed the face of thenation' from Civil War days when"every building looked like the Par-thenon struck by lightning."

It is among the women-folk thatMr. IJntermeyer's broadmindednessin choosing his individuals is mostevident. "The modern women," hesays, "owres everything she has toSusan B. Anthony." But every pieceof clothing that society allows herto take off, she owes to Isidore Dun-can, a modern dancer who "made the

human body something to respect."The one thing which Mr. Unter-

meyer says his subjects had in com-mon was "the spirit of dissension.""They rebelled against conformity. . . Almost without exception theirideas were laughed at or called im-possible . . . Many of them at onetime were banned in Boston." Butthey are proof that, "the heresy oftoday is the credo of tomorrow."

Dane, Jazz ConcertFor Darnm Weekend

Tonight, a semi-formal dance willmark the beginning of Dorm Week-end. Other activities planned for theannual affair will include a jazz con-cert and a dance to be held on Sat-urday afternoon and evening respec-tively.

EDITORIALSReason For Failure

Vital to the success of any educational program is theability of its teachers---yet all too often instructors on thecollege level have neither the interest in teaching nor theability to present and explain material which can determinethe success or failure of education. This problem is perhapsmost crucial in a rigorous and demanding technical educa-tion.

The freshman year is often one of disappointment anddisillusion as the entering student comes into contact withInstitute instructors for the first time. Accustomed to secon-dary school instruction-where teaching is a profession nota sideline-he finds it difficult to learn from men who arescientists and engineers first and instructors often only apoor second.

Closely related to the teaching problem is the failure ofthe registration officer system. Ideally a faculty adviser, theregistration officer often has neither the time, the interest orthe inclination to be of real service to his charges. Unabieto turn to the faculty adviser for help, the student becomesresentful of the impersonality of the system, loses some ofhis desire to learn. It is difficult to blame the registrationofficer-in many cases, he is forced to assume an addedresponsibility which he neither wants nor is able to perform.

Without HonorNot unaware of these problems, the great majority of the

faculty is continually striving to remedy the situation. Theyare, however, faced with a serious obstacle. Each member ofthe faculty has, of course, only a limited amount of time;and any time spent as a registration officer, a faculty residentor in instructing takes away from the time they have forresearch and study. The crux of the problem is that promo-tions are too often based solely upon research, too oftenupon the number of technical papers published. Interest instudents and time spent in helping them is only a milestonethat holds them back from deserved promotion.

Any college must attempt to gather as its faculty the out-standing men in its field, it must make its contributions inresearch-but it must not ignore its equally important obli-gation to its students. In selecting faculty and making pro-motions it must consider interest in the welfare of itsstudents.

ievory tower

Who is envied by the freshmen, regarded with vicariousanticipation by the juniors, and caressed with a predatoryeye by personnel managers ? The Senior, of course!

It's a delightful sensation to be a senior. The heady wineof planning pours foaming into the receptive goblet of thefuture. Quizzes loom less forbidding, deadlines lose theirproductive terror. Mount Everest lies below one's feet andthe world looks good. One even acquires a tinge of thegolden and tender glow that the alumni feels for alma'mater; the memory of the past wounds in the academiabattle recedes into the forgetful past.

Of course, every silver lining has its cloud. One task re-mains and casts a threatening shadow on the senior's sunnycountenance: the Thesis. Suddenly, the senior is unceremoni-ously pushed out of the well trodden path of the curriculum,and asked to be creative and original. A little icing on thescientific cake: an idea, a device, a design-maybe of smallimportance but still charged with all the mystique ofcreation.

The traditional way of dealing with a thesis is to postponeit. There are many hallowed formulas to accomplish this:

". .. I'm too busy now . . . I'll worry about it later.. I'll knock it off during Christmas vacation . . . I'll knockit off during Easter vacation . . . I'm getting panicky . . .I'll start on it next week ... " Suddenly the end of the termis in sight, and the senior sits many a day and many a night,being creative as hell just before the bell. But that's theway it goes.

The Outside World

Then there is the wonderful feeling of being wanted.Maybe not by the world at large, but certainly by Industry.They come from all over the country, the smiling personnelmen, like the slave merchants of old, to look over and ap-praise the merchandise. There are interviews every week,and the senior reluctantly shakes off the habits of four years,and shaves and puts on a tie and a jacket and his best DaleCarnegie manner. The personnel men smile, and talk loca-tions. promotions, salaries, opportunity, glittering roundfigures. Later, over coffee, the seniors sit around and displayfigures like precious trophies: "I have an offer for $420.. . he offered me 6000 . . . right in California, man !"

Senior time is also a time of occasional soul searching andserious thought. What has one accomplished in college?Was it worth all the effort and work and good times fore-gone and postponed ? What has one really gotten out ofthe Tech experience? The questions and the answers varywith each individual, yet a few generalizations stand out.

To this senior, the most important and lasting effect ofthe Institute l]ies not in the formal and academic knowledgeand training acquired. Of course this part of our educationis significant, it prepares us for our future career and studies,and gives us the tools with which to work and create andleave our mark upon the world. But the most importantproduct of our education lies elsewhere, it is intangible,often below the surface of consciousness, and we will be-come aware of it not until much later in life. It consists oftwo parts, we shall call them method and character.

What do we mean by method ? We mean that our methodof approaching the world has 'undergone a change. Thesystematic, logical and disciplined approach to the problemsof matter and mind cannot fail to leave a deep and lastingmark on the student. This analytical attitude transcends thesolution of technical or engineering problems. It becomesapplied to any other field or problem we have to face, be itpolitical, social, human or other. We have learned not toapproach a problem erratically or emotionally. The mindhas been trained to perform that methodical jump towardsinitial perspective, and take a good look at the problem.What are the definitions ? What are the questions involved?What are the empirical considerations? Is there proof forthe assertions involved? Is the proof valid and logical?Thus, our whole thought process has become reorganizedand reoriented. This is of tremendous importance in ourworld of today. So many issues are beclouded, so many menact on impulse and passion, so much truth is buried underdialectical covers. Our training and method will be an in-valuable asset in such a world. We must have and use thattool' of reason, for it is still man's best hope for a peaceful,happy and rational future.

A New Beginning

What do we mean by character? Many of us have comehere straight from the comforting apron strings of mom,and also from the sweet and relaxed arms of the averagehigh-school with its lack of demands upon the mind, itsmental spoon feeding and its failure to develop decent work-ing habits. For those of us, Tech has been a period of brutalweaning. Suddenly we were on our own. No parents tocomfort us. No solicitous school-marm bent over our shoul-ders and cajoling homework out of her little darlings.Instead, the heavy mantle of responsibility was upon us, andthere is only one way to bear it, and that is self disciplineand character. Somehow the student learns to forego amuse-ments if necessary, to open a book out of his own free will,to realize that his future is up to him. If old Kipling werestill around, he might have added a few lines to his famous'I£" poem:

IF you have learned to master your willIF you have suffered through physicsIF you have conquered chemistryIF you have survived the Boston weatherIF you have endured commons mealsIF you have resisted the pressuresIF you have met and defeated the examsIF you have stumbled through sleepless nightsIF you have licked frustration and bluesIF you have nourished the bursarAND ... written a thesisTHEN you will be Tech-manTHEN you will be a Man, my son.

And so the time has come to part. The author of this columnregretfully puts down his three favorite tools: the camera,the barb, the flower. The camera: to record the many facetsof the Tech scene, The barb: to criticize, because criticismis the leaven of society. The flower: to praise the praise-worthy. It has been fun writing it, and we hope some ofyou liked reading it. Au Revoirt!

Treadition And Intensive TheatreEmerson is the best known theatre school

in Boston. Founded in 1880, it now hassome 175 students in all fields of drama,radio, television, and speech therapy. Thedrama staff is smaller than B.U.'s, but theschool's graduates are well-rated in profes-sional circles. Realizing that few will beable to earn a living in the professional the-atre, (the average professional actor madeabout $800 dollars last year), an attemptis made to give the student an active, in-tense taste of the theatre, working closelywith fellow students, then allow him tochoose his eventual career for himself. Likemany drama students, Emerson grads oftenend up in public relations, advertising, or

sales work. The training they receive whileat Emerson, however, has produced somefine student shows.

The faculty, headed by Gertrude BindlevKay and Leo Nicols, has encouraged outsidework by the students, who are often seen

here with Tech Show and The Dramashop.Activity on campus centers around the Em-erson College Theatre, located in one of the

college buildings in the 100 block of Bea.con Street, and New England Mutual Hall,

where the musicals are given. Admission forall the shows except the musicals is free,but a fifty cent charge is made for reservedseats.

he most entertaining productions ofs and musicals are usually professional.training theatre, however, is not assuredthe mere fact that the cast is paid an salary; a brief glance at some of theensive, much-heralded pre-Broadwaynings of this past season suffices towhow bad a professional productionbe. In the theatre, the important factorstalent, experience, and sincerity; if you

carefully, you can find them in the-s other than the Shuberts'. Non-profes-al companies, ranging from communityetre to resident acting troupe, provide a

steady stream of shows not to be seen inthe downtown houses. Quality, like that ofprofessionals, varies from show to show andcompany to company; quite naturally, pro-ducers of consistently good work are theschools and organizations providing the bestleadership, the best facilities, and encourag-ing the greatest effort. Many of their pro-ductions are comparable to the highly pub-licized Boston openings, and yet most of usknow so little about theatres outside thedowntown area that we rarely think of go-ing elsewhere. This, then, is an introductionto the more prominent.

Herschel H. Loomls, Jr., will receive his B.S. degree in electricalengineering from Cornell University June 1957. Herschel is a memberof the freshman and varsity rifle teams, an associate member of Octa-gon, a dramatic group, and belongs to Theta Chi Fraternity. Likemany other students, he's makling employment plans early.

Your question is a natural one, Herschel-one we hearquite often. Du Pont is unquestionably a large companyin total number of employees and in all its operations.But; actually, Du Pont is made up of ten independentdepartments, almost as if it were ten companies underone management. And it is a fundamental policy atDu Pont to promote from within and on merit only.

That produces many opportunities for new men, butin addition there are proportionately more promotionsat Du Pont each year-by reason of expansion and re-tirenent-than you would find in most smaller com-panies. I say "proportionately more" because Du Ponthas grown at an average rate of seven per cent a year forthe past 153 years-a record that fewr companies canmnatch.

And Du Pont is still growing rapidly. Take your field,electrical engineering. A host of novel ant challengingproblems have to be faced, both in new construction allndin manintenance. There are plants to design with featuresthat have never been applied before; there are newequipment-control problems to work out, andl new ellni-lneering processes to pioneer. So, to answer your questionin a word, Herschel, I'd say your chances of )promotion

on nmerit are extremely good at Du Pont!

Peter J. Meshkof joined Du Pont at the JacksonLaboratory in 1941, after obtaining a B.S.Ch.E. fromthe University of Detroit and an M.S. from the Uni-versity of Michigan. He has had a wide range of Du Pontexperience, from chemist in the Dye Works to chiefsupervisor and works engineer at several plants, withmany opportunities to observe Du Pont personnelpolicies. Today Pete Meshkoff is works engineer atDu Pont's new Film Plant at Circleville, Ohio.

Poets' Theatre Experiments

The Poets' Theatre was formed in 1950to encourage "poetic drama". Under thisbanner, the group has become our only truly''experimental" theatre: plays, styles of pro-duction, and acting technique are oftenquite different and sometimes very success-ful. Backed by some of the most prominentAmerican poets, the Theatre has producedwith considerable success Lyon Phelps' "ThleGospel Witch", Mary Mlanning's adaptationof James Joyce's "Finnegan's Wake," andlast winter's "Les Misanthrope" (in a versetranslation which visited the Kresge LittleTheatre). Most of the company are associ-atedl as students or faculty with Harvardl,but many others are actors by evening an,{businessmen by doy. The Theatre itself isvery smll, and it is well to make rcserva-tions. Shows are usually announced in tlhedoxwntown p.apers, and a mailing list iSmaintained; tickets are from one to t\\odollars.

Tufts University's ownDepartment of Speech and Drama, the un-dergraduate "Pen, Paint, and Pretzels", andthe Tufts Community Players have been do-ing a combined total of ten to twelve showsa year for five years; the summer theatre,operating independently, does eight to tenplays during Juiy and August.

Converted fromn a woman's gymnasiumseveral years.ago, the Arena is a model formany similar stages, and, for those unusedto "theatre in the round", a truly amazingexperience. With Tufts' Prof. Jack Wood-ruff as its mentor, the theatre engages intremendous variety of almost consistentlyhigh quality. Tufts is accessible via MTAthru Harvard Square; ticket prices rangefrom fifty cents to two dollars.

Final Softball Playoffs To Start Monday; Trackby Dave Savage '58

After a long and rainy season thesoftball finals will begin on Mon-day, May 14. There will be a doubleelimination tournament with nineteams competing.

Most of the league action has beencompleted and the league championshave been determined. In league 1the chem department showed strongpitching and timely hitting in win-ning their league handily without adefeat.

League two action has BurtonHouse A team and the Pi Lams tiedfor first place with identical 3-0 rec-ords. They will meet this afternoonto decide the league two title. Bur-ton House B team led league threeon Wednesday and played Theta Chion Thursday. If they get by ThetaChi then they will take their league.However, if Theta Chi should pull anupset then the league would bethrown into a three way tie betweenBurton B, Theta Chi, and LambdaChi Alpha.

On Wednesday TEP Club took themeasure of the Sig Ep B team by i.5-2 margin giving them the top spotin league four. Murray Muraskin '58,looked fast but wild as he set theSig Eps down. The big blow for theSig Eps was a triple in the top of theseventh by Tom Grontkowski '58.

Betas Trounce Grad HouseLeague Five was turned topsy-tur-

vy on Wednesday when the Betastrounced previously undefeated GradHouse B team 23-1. The Betas scored14 runs in the first inning beforeGrad House could retire a man. Gor-don Nutt '58 managed to control theGrad House bats without muchtrouble. This leaves Grad House witha 3-1 slate and the Betas with a 2-1record. If the Betas can down Burtonstudent staff in their next outingthey will meet Grad House again forthe league crown.

League six has finished with theBaker House A team going throughfour games without a loss. They havebeen impressive and have a wellrounded attack with a strong three-man pitching staff.

League seven was thrown into adeadlock on Wednesday when Phi MuDelta came out on top over the Me-teorology Department by a score of35-26. Pitching was not one of thestrong points of the game as both alack of control by the pitchers and astrong wind made it a hitter's holi-day. Phi Delta Theta and Phi MuDelta are now tied for the leaguelead and will play it off this after-noon.

Sig Ep WinsSigma Phi Epsilon's A team pull-

ed out a close one over SAE to takethe league eight title last Saturday.Sig Ep trailed all the way until theyscored four runs in the sixth to tieit up. SAE got one run in the sev-enth but Sig Ep came back with two

to win the game and the title. BevGoodison '57 showed good control ashe went all the way for Sig Ep. TomComparato '56 did the hurling forSAE.

League nine was completely domi-nated by the Grad House A team.They combined strong hitting, solidfielding and excellent pitching by BobScutt and Rolando Quevedo.

Golf ScheduledThe intramural golf match is sched-

uled for tomorrow at the Sandy Burrgolf club in Wayland. 24.teams arescheduled to tee off in the one-shottournament starting at nine o'clocktomorrow morning. On Sunday thetrack meet which was postponed lastweek is again scheduled for oneo'clock. In the sailing finals held lastweek the Delts came out on top with841/2 points to the second place Bur-ton House sailors' 79 points. Followingbehind the top two were the PhiGams, the Grad House A and the

Grad House B teams. The pointspread between the top five teamswas only ten points.

Tennis ContinuesIn the Tennis tourney the second

round has started and should be fin-ished by next Wednesday. There arenow sixteen teams left in contentionfor the tennis crown. Winding up theSquash playoffs has the SAE squadtaking first place. Following themvery closely in second vwas Phi SigmaKappa and the Number Six Clubwound up in third place. Followingthem for the final places were BakerHouse and Sigma Nu.

Participation in Intramural sportsat MIT has been extremely popularin the past year according to Intra-mural sports council. During the pastyear there have been approximatelythree thousand men participating in.thirteen intramural sports.

Squash DroppedAt a meeting of the council held

last Tuesday night it was voted todrop Squash as an intramural sportfor next year. The reasons cited werethat there had been very little in-terest in the sport and that the for-feit rate had been much too high. Inother action taken by the councilHockey was lowered from a majorsport to a semi-major and volleyballwas also a semi-major sport. Theswimming meet has been moved fromthe spring to sometime in the fallwhen there is more time available.

Hockey is one of the growing ac-tivities at Tech and plans are beingworked on to develop it more fully.One of the primary needs now is fora cover for the Hockey rink. This cov-er, whether it be a complete roof overthe rink or just a canvas to coverthe ice when it rains, is needed tokeep the rink in top playing condi-tion both for the varsity and the in-tramural activity. It would reduce theupkeep and increase the interest in

There has been confusion inpast in the postponing of games.some cases forfeits have retlfrom misunderstandings as to *hea game would be played or not.there is any doubt as to whethercontest will be run as schedulednot the team managers should in touch with the intramural ager of that particular sport.

Paid referees in all sports Falso discussed in last Tuesday's cil meeting. It was felt that do0this would result in both more]liable officiating and refereeing djbetter quality. The only hindrbehind such a move is the lack~funds. If the Institute would hIsubsidize the intramural actijilthis might be possible.

The Original Wasp, the first P & W A engine -- designed,fabricated and assembled in less than seven months. Weigh-ing under 650 pounds and officially rated at 410 horse-power, this lightweight, air-cooled radial engine was amilestone in aviation history and set the pattern for almostthree decades of record-breaking advances.

Today's leadership... a

reflection of policies establishedin aviation's infancy

Back in The Roaring Twenties, the magic dream pictured Ameri-can families someday using the light personal airplane as, freely asthe family car. Among the realists, however, was a handful of menwho were unshakable in their conviction that the real future ofaviation lay with bigger aircraft, higher speeds, greater ranges--all possible only through engines of higher power and more relia-bility than those of that era.

In the spring of 1925, six of these men of vision founded acompany in Hartford to undertake the development of a new air-craft engine--an air-cooled type. The year's end heralded theirfirst success- Pratt & Whitney Aircraft's "Wasp".

This talented group of men continued to improve their power-plant designs, developing engines of steadily mounting power thatoperated efficiently and dependably. They contributed much toaviation's progress--so much so that currently three-quarters ofthe world's commercial airliners and many of our nation's first linemilitary aircraft are P & W A-powered.

Today's P & W A powerplant designs are supported by thevery finest research facilities and equipment, and a technical staffthat is continually being strengthened. That nucleus of six men hasgrown into one of the world's leading engineering organizations.Yet to this very day, engineering achievement at Pratt & WhitneyAircraft is guided by its founders' simple policy . . . the best air-planes can be designed only around the best engines.

The fifty niners took an early lead;scoring four goals in the first quar-ter. Tufts' stickmen passed twothrough the MIT goalie this period.At the half the Cardinal and Grey-men had gained a three point lead;the second quarter score being 6-3.The Tech crosse men held down Tufts

Young ad manhandles G-E jet

and rocket erngineadvertising

The first jet engine ever to power an Ameri-can plane was built by General Electric in1942. Since 1948, G.E. has supplied the AirForce with over 30,000 of its famous J47jet engines. And General Electric's jet ex-perience soon will be paying additional newdividends to national defense. Its J79-called the most advanced engine of its typein the world-will soon enter production.

The man responsible for reporting G.E.'sjet and rocket engine progress to its cus-tomers and the public is Roy O. Stratton, Jr.,27-year-old account supervisor in the Corn-pany's Apparatus Advertising and SalesPromotion Department.

Stratton's Work Important, Interesting

Stratton supervises the planning and prepa-ration of direct-mail promotion, brochures,films and presentations, as well as public-informational space advertisements for Time,U.S. News & World Report, Business Week,Aviation Week, and other magazines.

Considerable personal contact with theArmed Services makes Stratton's job an in-teresting one. Last year he traveled over60,000 miles, visiting many of the country'sAir Force bases to gather necessary infor-mation and pictures.

25,000 College Graduates at General Electric

When Stratton came to General Electric in1952, he already knew the kind of work hewanted to do. Like each of our 25,000 col-lege graduates, he is being given the chanceto grow and realize his full potential. ForGeneral Electric has long believed this: whenfresh young minds are given the freedom todevelop, everybody benefits-the individual,the Company, and the country.

¢Virtue Of £ork ForMIT Students Noted

On Tuesday evening Kresge Audi-torium was the scene of a talk bythe Honorable Robert H. Winters '34on the contributions made to societyby the working students of MIT.

The program began with brief ad-dresses by Dr. Killian and Mr. Car-lyle of the Student Personnel Depart-ment.

During his speech Mr. Wintersstressed the oft-mentioned fact thatsociety needs capable engineers. Mr.Winters, however, made the addition-al point that not only the fields ofnatural science, but because of thecomplexity of the current world sit-uation, also those of political sci-ence, were in need of the analyticaltalents of the well-qualified engineer.

In conclusion, Mr. Winters said theMIT working student, having real-ized the "virtue of work", will, withhis superior education, be able tomake the most of the "unlimited hor-izons" before him.
