Armour has chalked up a victory over Northwestern once this sea— son: The score of this hair raiser was 24—22. In this game Tech amassed an 11 point lead when both guards were removed on fouls. Northwestern scored 10 points to come within one point of a tying score when Rowley’s basket forged the way to a Tech victory. Coach Krafft will start the same combination that he has used in the last few games. Probable Lineup Robin, nf. Simpson, Li. Rossing, c. Miran, g.

A 40-29 loss at the hands of Angus» tana has not dampened the spirit of the black and gold squad. Con- stant improvement has cheered Coach Krafft. Several casualties have been noticed last week. Robin suffered an injured shoulder in the practice sessions while Tell is still recup— erating from a swollen optic. These men will probably be ready for battle on Tuesday. Thursday Armour will meet Chi- - cago Normal at their gymnasium at 68th and Normal Blvd. Tech has registered a victory over Nor— mal once this year. Two victories from last year swell the total to three straight. Australian Visits Armour on Tour Armour Institute had a most in— teresting visitor last Tuesday in the person of Professor 1'... E. H. Reich— stein, Head of the Engineering De- partment, Gordon Institute of Technology, G e e l o n g , Australia. Professor Reichste‘m is on a tour inspecting the engineering colleges in the United states, Canada, and Europe. He entered Canada by way of Vancouver, stopped at Winnipeg and at the University of Minnesota, and then came to Armour. Dean Penn conducted Professor Reichstein through the school. He displayed particular interest in the Mechanical and Electrical Engi- neering Departments. From Armour Professor Reich— stein went to the University of Illi— nois and from there intended to go through the eastern states, stop— ping at several schools, and then going on to Europe. Gordon Institute is largely a gen— eral technical school, its engineer- ing department having only about one hundred students. Walter Healy, C. E., ’29 visited school Thursday. He is now en- gaged in building construction for the Stoltz Construction Company of Chicago.

Leaders imholm'ship, Get Handbook ’ Awards ASTE LEADS ORCHESTRA The annual winter concert was held Thursday morning, January 16, at 10:00 o‘clock in Assembly Hall. The demand for encores, and long periods of applauding forced the program to be continued well into the lunch hour. Before the concert, Professor Schommer Spoke to the students on the lack of support given the has— ketball team. The attendance has dropped from two or three hundred; in the past, to nothing at present. He said that the team needed the school spirit as exemplified by cheering, in order to do its best. Raymond Speaks Following Professor Schommer, President Raymond spoke on the Tau Beta Pi and Pi Tau Sigma honorary fraternities. Jack (”Javaw naugh, ’32, received a “Handbook on Chemistry and Physics” from for having the highest scholarship recordnei‘ anydreshman» 1a.... z,» , Harold Davis, ’32, was rewarded . with a copy l’o “Kemt’s Handbook" for having the highest average among the freshman mechanicals. Professor Leigh gave a brief talk on the musical organizations at Ar— mour. He expressed a hope that the cultural side of the school as shown by the annual concert should be further developed. The concert was opened by the orchestra, under the direction of Frank Aste, ’30. They presented the “Aida March” and the “Melody in F,” to a very receptive audience. The Glee Club, led and accom— panied by Doctor Daniel Protheroe, followed with three selections, "Prayer of Thanksgiving,” “Eldo- rado,” composed by Doctor Prothe— roe himself, and “Winter Song." Solos Presented The outstanding surprise of the concert was the discovery of the three talented soloists who pre— sented special numbers. The work of Emmett Higgins, George Burhop, Frank LeGrady, Jr., and the Nov— elty Quintet, was unusually excel- lent, and as such was rewarded by much applause from the students.

Clark, a former stu— dent, on Thursday, January ‘7. He was killed, when the Leaning 2— place amphibian, powered with a 450 H. P. engine, in which he was flying, fell 1,500 feet into San Diego Bay and was completely demol- flé. _ , , , . «in Check Flight Ensign Clark was accompanying Lieutenant Eugene F. Burkett, U. S. N. on a trip to Otay Mesa to be checked on ability to make carrier landings before the cruise of the fleet. The team was composed of the amphibian flown by Lieutenant Burkett and Ensign Clark and an— other see.—going plane piloted by Ensign Nelson. When Lieutenant Burkett and Ensign Clark failed to appear at the appointed time in Otay Mesa, Ensign Nelson flew back over the San Diego Bay region in search of them. He- located the other plane flying in unnatural circles over San Diego Bay. Due to the fact that both planes were to report immediately after carrying out their instructions, the antics of the fatal plane seemed to indicate that it was in distress. After a long, glide that ended in a spiral, the plane fell into a spin from which it never recovered. Plane Faulty Lieutenant Burkett had just completed the third Alaskan Aerial Survey and knew Loening amphi- bians thoroughly. Over-confidence of the pilot in his ability to bring the plane out of the spin is prob~ ably the reason for their not jump- ing. The accident is credited by officials to the failure of the plane (Continued 0?? page 4) Bootleggers Take Vli’oooishop Shellac Ever since the meeting of the Wednesday Woodshop class two weeks ago. a bottle of white shellac has been mm from the shell" that it has occupied since the be— ginning of the semester. Mr. Pc— terson, instructor in woodworking, has been invest’gaiing its disap— pearance. He says the shellac was diluted with good “old time" grain alcohol. However. it isn't so much the shellac that. he is so anxious to have returned as it is the bolmle, for the students have to use an old glass, which is very hioonvenient. Hereafter Mr. Emerson intends to use wood alcohol for the dilution of the shellac, thus insuring the Patrons and Patronesses With but four days left before the Junior Dance, January 24th, the Juniors have unleashed a late ticket selling drive that promises to fill the dance floor to its limit.

E. Heath, present Editor-in- Chief. Each year, college, univer— sity, and high school annuals are submitted to this association for grading on a basis of quality. The rating given the edition of the Cycle of 1929, under the editor- ship of Boyden W. Hindman, was as high as any given. To make this rating the year book scored a total of 925 out of a possible 100 points. The difierent things taken into consideration in grading the an— nuals were: plan of book and its theme, administration and instruc— tion, senior section and classes, ac- tivities, organizations, special sec- tions, editing and makeup, me— chanical considerations, and finan— cial status. According to Heath, this year’s edition of the Cycle will be bigger and better than ever, and will be distributed on Circus day. in the last week of May.
