This Friday afternoon, begin ning the Homecoming celebrating,
the traditional rope pull between the Freslunnn and • ophomore classes will ta ke place. The annua l tug-o'-war should be a great spectacle this yea r ns the Sophomores try to score in thr Goat slwacl competition. The Fre. hmen got the jump by winning the paddlr ru.,h, first of many events. Most of the school will be out to watch lht• " wet" losers and the gleeful winners. &IUitlDfl D•lc Ch• nsed The rushing date of October 24 has been moved up to Thur..clay, Octobtr 23. This move was made by the l.F. Council, with the backiDg of the fraterniti es, through a suggestion of the Tech Council. The Council felt that the traditional Homecamiog Rally the ni~hl before the footbnll !(ame should not be overlooked . This rally will now lttkr place o n Friday night, Octobt'r 24, g iving the s tudent body n chnn Cl' to . how thut they arc behind their team all the way.

The artiCle has been edrted for tcrlrnical rolleges. To all tJJose rellow·sludents who have not yet reached the top in the academic world, we submit for ap· proval the following proposals concerning college educalion. However impractical they may see~ at first glance, we are sure that w1th further study you will be convinced by the cogency of the argument, and s~b· scqueotly, be won over to our pomt . of VIew. In the first place, all studying for knowledge. must be done away with, and studying for a MARK be sub· slituted in its stead. The acquisit ion of true knowledg~ .mu~t be always secondary to acqumng a m~rk. • There are many ways or msurmg your obtaining a "good" mark, but perhaps the best is to be sure that you learn onJy those things that the idiosyncracies of the instructor de· rnand that you know. All else is extraneous material. H the pro£ tells you to forget everything you ever · · ·11 d learned 1 forget lt- ll WI O yOU no h · h good. If t.he teacher emp aslzes l e spread over otherwise impassivr faces, and swell mttny a heart in remembrance of times thal used to be.

racl that "you cannot live without a cosine'', remember that you might get it on a test. If the more essential points conc~ning ~e~..,ton's laws seem to be d!Sfegarded In yo11r class discu~ion, don't let that worry you. Obviously, since they are being left out, they are not important. Only those capable of expert memorization can hope to be scbolastically successful. Memori1.ation is tltc thing. Memorize onJy those £acts shown to be important by their inelusion In classroom discussion The parrot-like habit of spouting the in· structors' ideas verbatim is highly commendable and should be em' p1oyed w 11eoever poss ibl e.

The Tech student physicists' group held its first meeting of the year on Friday afternoon, October 17th. The group decided to remain on a local status for the time being, but hopes to become eventually a.n undergraduate chapter of the American Institute of Physicists.

The next m~ting of ttre group will be held on November 14th, when K eu Heuley will be the speaker.
