Dean of Massachusetts Insti-
tute of Technology
Presents Movie
Itice students witnessed a. showing
ol high spyed moving pictures in the
chemistry lecture hall last Monday
afternoon. The pictures were taken
at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology and are being displayed on tour
by Mr. H. E. Lobdell, dean of the school
and Dr. James L. Tryon. director of
admissions. The pictures, taken at M.
I. T., were made with special type of
high speed camera developed at that
school. The camera employs, instead
of a shutter, a stroboscopies light of a
frequency of about 1000 flashes per
second. A stroboscopic light is merely
a neon or ether gas light connected to
a switch which automatically opens
and closes the desired number of times
per second. The motion picture 01m
was on a reel adjusted to run at a
speed such that at each flash of the
light, a new section of the film was be-
hind the lens, and thus was exposed.
The machine uses 75 feet ($5 worth)
of film per second, and ordinarily one
second is the longest time that it is
run, because the events which it photo-
graphs usually occur in noout one
second.
One of the most recent pictures made
with this camera was d close-up view
of a drop kick. The pictures showed
the foot approach the ball, strike it,
make a deep indentation in it. and
th:.ii showed* the ball as it regained its
shape and bounded away from the foot.
These pictures were printed in the
Houston papers a few months ago.
One set of pictures shown Monday
afternoon was the action that takes
place when a siteal ball is dropped
into a .glass of milk. Like a slow pic-
ture of a diver, it pictured a moun-
tainous wave I low out ward as toe ball
struck the surface of the milk. The
wave bounced back from the walls of
the glass, enveloped thu ball, and shot
into th:■ air like some huge water
spout or geyser. The geyser rose
above the top of the glass and formed
huge drops which fell into the liquid
and caused a secondary wave similar
to the first.. The motion of every mili-
tate bubbly and drop of milk showed
distinctly in the picture with lifelike
reality.
•Another picture shown was that of
a hammer striking an ordinary light
globe The picture showed lluit the
! .* I a ss distorted a bit before it broke;
and when it did break, the shattered
pieces of glass could be seen to flv in
all directions.
Before leaving. Dean Lobdell left an
open invitation to Rice students in-
terested in advance%cicnce work to In-
vestigate the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology.

Engineers Took Over the Work
Hhen the Lord Rested Sunday
PEAR AND FAITH
Fear that makes faith m"ay break
faith—Swinburne.
By ANON r;:.
Alter the Lord made the, earth, in
six days, and before starting for the
Country Club to rest on Sunday, he
turned the plans and specifications of
the earth over to; an engineer.' And
since that day, engineers though paid
on the six-day basis, have cbhtinued
to work seven days and nearly as
many nights a week. An engineer
can lie identified ,by his trusting look,
the resigned expression on his face,
and ijty tables of sines and cosines car-
ried near ills heart.
Through the ages the engineer has
continued to function, until now our
technittaf schools yearly 'turn upward
of 10.000 young hopefuls on the Amer-
ican public, each armed with li slide-
rule, two handbooks and a bad case
of brain fatigue due to four years of
unremitting toil. Some of these souls
are immediately saved by becoming
bond salesmen and insurance agents.
Some of the remaining , souls, after
working incessantly as engineers, gain
success by becoming advertising man-
agers. accountants, salesmen and man-
aging executives. But alas, some fail
and, become Assistant1 Chief Engineers,
Chief Engineers, and if complete fail-
ures, become Consulting Engineers.
Our government has two famous en-
gineer* who gained fame by ceasing
their own occupations and becoming
Public Scrvants-,f-George Washington
and Herbert Hoover. An engineer with
the temperament of a grand opera star
is an inventor and can be recognized
by long hair and flowing bow lit. <
, There is only one engineer on let- I
• ■id who has become rich. He recenfiy I
died in Colorado and left a fortune oI !
$50,000, which he amassed through un-
ceasing toil, superhuman pusei vunee,
remarkable ingenuity arid the death
of an uncle who left, him $49,995.00.
Engineering is a good deal like golf.
Those wjio are good drivers become
managing' executives; for those whose
best .shots are brassie, the advertising
profession offers a good opportunity in
case of a good lie; those who approach
wi|l find salvation in salesmanship;
and those good on t he green become
cashiers and investment brokers. The
duffers remain engineers.
The Student Agronomy Society o.l
•the lA. &' M. Colli ilj of Texas has ex-
tended .in limitation Ui the student
body tii select tme of the women stu-
dents lo represent Tin Rice Institute
at the Fourth Annual Cotton Style
Show, Pagcnt and Ball on the evening
of April 5, at College Station.
The affair for the past -three years
has been an outstanding social event
of the college year at A. & M and
•invitations are extended to ttll edu-
cation;!] institutions of senior rank in
the state.
It is desired that all members of the
court wear fiffton garments ol. their
own design-and choice. If the duchess
wishes she may wear the colors of the
institution that, she represents.
Women interested in representing
Rice at the festival should communi-
cate with Raleigh White or with some
member of the Student's Association.
The representative will attend the
Ball with an A. ft M, man, whom she
may choose. If she desires, an escort
will be chosen for her.
