By Warren Spitz In response to our hospitaliza- tion article we received a great lcal of comment, most of it very favorable. Let. a few misapprehem sions be corrected before we go further. We did not state definite ly what the fee Show! be. That should be decided by the NOW? authorities. Payments received from the general {and should not constitute a loan, but worth} be permanent. And as for criticisms that the plan won't work, we say that it does and has worked very well at large and small colleges throughout the nation. Support of the campaign, what we might term the "Bob Ladevich Fund’ has been great. Started by his fellow junior mechs the drive has netted over $100 in subscrip- tions and is still going strong. Bel) was injured in the touch tourney several weeks back, and the fellas have rallied to his cause. We hope to see more of you in on it as it certainly is worth while to help out your fellow Techmcn when. ever possible, For the benefit of those who thought we may have missed some points in the fieldhouse story of last week, we beg to say that he» sides «the sport facilities mention- ed, the new building should con- tain a fully-equipped rifle range, as many bowling alleys as possi- ble and full provisions for indoor golf practice and other activities which need indoor playing space. Don’t worry fellows! No one will be left out if possible. We want. need and will get the best, but it will be necessary for everyone lo put their shoulders to the wheel. Everything seemed to happen at once last week, but, believe you me, it’s only the beginning. lllinois Tech is in a high pitch and we want to see that type of student spirit remain throughout the year. Our basketball season is only a few weeks away, and it is high time that we started to hear some talk about the cagers. If the pre— sent campus enthusiasm contin- ues we expect to see some real crowds out at all of the games. We must have crowds because we are going to have cheerleaders, and we must have a large-lunged gang to do the yelling. Yes. I said cheerleaders. The first meeting of prospective candl- tlatcs for the group will he held; Friday at 5 .m. in the Yeorhook office, across from the Technology News moms, 4th floor, first en~ trance Chopin hall on the south campus. We are guamntecd at fine turnout of coeds and we want to sec them supported by plenty o” the guys. Arrangements are being made to provide sweaters or uniforms for the group. Friday’s the (lay!

Returning members of last sea- son’s squad are Captain Mike Shultz and Dick Dunworth, seri- iors; Earl Sherman, a junior; and sophomores Jim Ferguson and Dick Larson. Enforcing these men are twelve newcomers, three of whom commute from the west side campus. Leading the group of embryo netters at this early stage. are Paul Jernherg, a letter man from Parker high school now enrolled at Lewis, and Chuck Behrens and Don Shillcr, both veteran netters in interfraternily and intramural tennis. A more accurate idea of the strength of the new men, how ever, will be hat} after their games are adjusted to the boards, a pen“ ennial obstacle to the men meet ing them for the first, time. Manager Dick llameister, after summing up the results of the two sessions, expressed his belief that the team appears stronger at this time than it did a year ago after an equal period of activity. The next meeting of the. squad will be Thursday night at five, as the courts will not be available tomorrow as schcduloo. llimois Tech Profs At DcKolb Conclave lllinois institute of Technology was. represented at tho lllinois sectional meeting of the Ameri- can Association of University Pro- ' lessons which was held November l, he}. at lllinois State Teachers college in De Kalb, ill. 0? the lwentyono active mem~ hers of the HT faculty, Dr. Judson Lee, lilr.

His IQ rat~ ing as tested by the Brush founda- tion was the highest ever tested—- considerably over 200!!! When he was seven, his father hired one of the most brilliant mathematics students from Case School of Ap- plied Science to give him weekly . lessons. Other than this training in music, mathematics, reading and writing, he has no instruction. He learned physics, biology, chem- istry and other sciences by him- self. This superouiz kid has embar- rassed his high school teachers by correcting their mistakes, and soon it was apparent that an ordi- nary educational program was not fit for him. At present Kenneth Wolf, a boy of ten, is attending the Western Reserve university where he is majoring in chemisv try. TECHNOK/OGY NEWS Willi; AVAIELAELE ilflli lfllflflltifi‘l’ Flilalll‘li’ Last week the hockey team re ceived good news from two sources. They are due to have a rink available :for practice ses sions and home games, besides will probably have home and trav- eling games with Notre Dame and othe Mid-western schools. “ “Doc” Davey, the non-playing book coach of the hockey team, re- ceived a communication from the Southwest Falcons saying that their rink at 55th and Kolin could he used by the Techawks. This will allow the team to get out and have regular practices: as soon as the weather permits, and will also allow them a rink for their home games. The letter from Notre Dame was less definite but just as im‘ portant. Athletic Director Frank Lcahy wrote that they were Will- ing to schedule one or more games as soon as their team is definitely formed. Games with Lake Forest, the Falcons, Whiting: and Wm» kegcn are being planned for the coming season. As this is being written the snow and the thermometer are both falling-«Amt. rapidly. This leads to the conclusion that the team will start playing very soon. We advise all sports-minded slu~ dents to purchase warm clothing to got out and cheer the skaters on to victory.
