Coffee Shop Under New Management
The Institute will aga.in resume operation of the campus Coffee Shop on Tuesday, June 1, i t. was announced this week by the business manager's office. The cafeteria has been operated by J ames Sullivan for the past fourteen months under contract with the Institute_
A general improvement in food and service, opening of the Coffee Shop during some part of the even ing for coffee and some rearrangement of serving and eating facilities are included in plans under the new operat ion. The evening opening arrangements will not go into effect unti l next fall.
Management of the cafeteria will be under the general supervision of Glenn J. Green who recently joined the Institute s taff as manager of Student Houses, the Athenaeum and the C.offee Shop.
Hinricks Award to Honor Outstanding Graduating Senior
To be awarded to the senior who, in the judgment of the undergraduate deans, has made the greatest contribution to the welfa re of the student body, the Frederick W. Hinrichs award has been added to the list of honors given at commencement.
The award, established in memory of Frederick W. Hinrichs who served for more than twenty years as Dean and Professor at the Tnstitute, will be awarded for the first. time this year. It will be presented at commencement without prior notifi.cation, and will consist of $100 in cash, a certificate, and a suitable memento.
At the discretion of the deans, more than one award or none may be made in any year. The award is given to the senior "who, throughout his undergrad. uate years at the Institute has made the greatest contribution to the welfare of the student body and whose qualities of character, leadership, and res· ponsibility have been outstand· ing."
STUDENTS DEVELOP "FOURTH HOUR PLAN" Tn the columns below Tom Stix presents a program recently evolved by a g roup of students,
which they feel would s pur student participation in non-academic activities at the Institute. "The Fourth Hour Plan" is an admitted nt tempt to force s ucll partiCipation on present non
participants by making it compulsory. Men and organ izations already active would be effected only in that a more convenient time for s uch extra activ ities would be provided.
Many drawbacks to the plan can be presented. It is the feeling of the men sponsoring it, however, that these can be overcome. The major objection which will be no doubt raised concerns the element of compulsion.
Active Planning is a Hea1thy S ign "Rega rdless of whether the plan as outlined here, is accepted or not, I cannot help but feel that
it is a s tep in the right direction. It shows that a la l'ge gl'oup of studen ts are ac tively thinking about the problems of the Institute and its students, s triving for continual improvement. If nothing el se, I hope the presentation of the plan through the Tech will encourage discussion a long these lines and that this consideration will result in a solution to one of the most preSSing pl'Oblems of the schooL
In pursuing its already achieved goal of nati ona l academic leadership, it is only natural that Caltech should also assume vigorous leadership in the equally vital fie ld of personal development.
The Caltech Attitude Should !\'Ih'l'oJ' t he Caltech Goal This is the substance of my valedictory wish to the Institute: A continued and ever-expand
ing preeminence based on open-mindedness an d a tradition of willingness to adjust to changing needs. In short, the application of the scientific method, and, more important, the scientific attitude to every phase of Institute development. Th e Cal tech goal cannot be more adequately stated than it has been in the lives of the three men most responsible for its existence: Millikan, Hale and Noyes.- I.I. F. H,
What follows below is a plan for Ins titute-sponsored extracurricular activities. T h r e e e leven o'clock hours a week are to be set aside f-or this program. These activities are to be as numerous and varied as' possible, including everything from sculpture to fty-ca sting. Participation will be required of all undergraduate students, but hours and activities will remain flexible so as t.o allow for the maximum amount of . student initiative and freedom.
Background: Caltech has a reputation for being a factory fot~t.ecllnological students - a workshop where bright shiny scientists and engineers are turned out like so many Chevrolets. The fact that Caltech has teams in every inter-collegiate sport, that orga nized social func t ions are held every Friday and Saturday night, that we have on carl).' pus a paper, a yearbook, a glee club, an orchestra, drama club and band, that we have a deba.te team of high national sta ndingthese are invariably overlooked or omitted when the school is discussed among outsiders_
\Vho is guilty of spreading the half-truths and exaggerations among the populace? The students are. In our conversations abroad, we don't emphasize that libera l arts courses comprise a quarter of our program, but we say we worked until two a.m. on a lab report. And that was
an easy one. would be for the g reat better-EV.idently there's a lot of ment of the school.

The Institute takes ing active help and approval no initiative in s ponsoring activi- from the lnstitute to replace the ties not con nected with school passive acceptance of the past. work. There is an element in The Institute has mandatory the Institute hiel'archy that human ities, mandatory physical would be immensely pleased if training, and before the war, we abolished such things as the mandatory assembl ies. It takes football team, the Pajamarino, if the res ponsibility for producing we turned the student houses a healthy scientist or engineer completely i n t. 0 dormitories_ with an e lement of cultural Fortunately, student demand background. Let it add to this has been strong enough to keep the responsibili ty of producing a these alive. On student initiative happy engineer, with a varie ty alone do we have a paper, a yearbook, a drama club, a glee club. These act ivities are a hea lthy stabilizing influence. If they can be expanded to include all of the student body, and es· pecially the off-campus men, it
Honor Violation Suspends Two
A trial was h cld rooently by the Board of Control ill which two men were involved.
In the lWOCCSS of extended questioning by the Board, both men confessed to having violat.l-"d the Honor System.
One of thc two was sentenced to Immediate SUSI)ens ion frolll t h e Institute for a pel'iod of one year, and the second was sentenced to immediate <tnd pcrmanent sus-pension,

The Plan: The ach ievement of these goals is simple. Let there remain free fro m academic courses three hours a week. Eleven to twelve is obviously the best h our . These sha ll be fi lled with what we sha ll call Fourth Hour Activities. (Being the fourth school hour of the day.) No units will be given, but attendance must be enforced as it is fOr P. E. Students will register for these Fourth Hour Activities at the beginning of each term.
But hold! These activities are not just another class. They are a change of pace from the rest of the day. A new type of work. Interesting_ Relaxing. You look forward to them. For the field of possibilities is unlimi ted. W e can offer in addition to the

No Frosh Award Sa~ Tau Betes
Last year the Tau Beta Pi organization ina u g u rat e d an award to the Outsta.nding Freshman of the year_ This custom was initiated to give a s ui table honor to very exceptional men_
Award Basis
The Ca lteeh chapter of Tau Beta Pi chooses the man to receive th is award on the basis of o u tstanding scholarship coupled with character and participa tion in campus activities.
No \Vinner
This year the Tau Betes ha.ve decided not to announce a winner; not because there are no outstanding scholars 01' no singularly active frosh, but because these two t raits could not be found in anyone man_ Those fl'osh who have been most active have apparently been so to the detriment of their grade point average, while the frosh who a re ou tstanding in scholarship have been doing only a very small amount of extra-curricular activity.
RC80111tion The decision not to give an
award this year w as made at a meeting last Monday night. The resolution passed at this time said in effect: "In order to keep th is award one which actually lives up to its name, we will give no award unless there actua lly is some student combining all three tra its-scholarship, character, and act i v i t Y on campus.
Tests, Guidance Offered h~ V.A.
Are you disconented? Do you feel misplaced? Do you feel that perhaps Tech isn't the place for you? Then take the Veterans Administration Guidance Tests and find out your capabilities and aptitudes.
Free To Vets
These tests are given free of charge by the veterans administration in an effor t to help the veteran decide what he is best fitted for., Non veterans may take the tests and receive counselling at a cost of $25.
Tests
There is an interview followed by four types of tests which take from three to six hours, First the interest tests; then the aptitude tests indicating the various fields in which you have ability (these may prove surprising); t he performance tests which will give the counselor an idea of how much you know and can do; and finally the persona li ty tests which you may choose to take.
HelpfUl Many Tech students have al
ready availed themselves of this cou nseling and found it very helpful and inte res ting. There is no red tape; an appointment will be m ade promptly.

FOURTH HOUR PLAN (Continued from Page 1)
paper, the yearbook, the gleeclub, the orchestra, band, debating, radio and chemistry clubs, the drama club---all of which we have now-in addition to these we call offer an art-roam-watercolors, oils, ink sketching, sculpture and modeling, casting in plaster of parts and bronze; a woodwork shop. a machine shop, a welding shop; sports such as archery, fly-casting; special courses such as music appre. ciation, industria.! design; a model airplane club, a photography club which might even produce movies. Above aU the fields must remain flexible. Let the criterion be only that the work is productive, creative, or enjoyable. Let activities be approved by a joint student-faculty board to meet the demand.
If fifty men think the Institute needs a lawn in front of Throop, Or an amphitheater behind astrophysics, let them sign on to put their time into building these. The hours do not have to be kept rigidly for the individual. If he would rather work three hours in the shop on a free afternoon, let him do it. Providing only that three hours a week are put in.
As things are now, there will be many who wi ll devote far more than the minimum time to this work. But a minimum must be set and hours put aside, to show that the Institute policy is to encourage these things, that the school believes they are of Significant value in an education, and merit a cerlain portion of time in everyone's life. There are many who would enter into such activities as we now have except that a) they have not yet learned to organize their time b) they feel schoolwork is more important c) they live off-campus and can't come back in the evening when most activities meet. The Fourth Hour Plan solves these problems virtua.lly by definition.
In introducing this program the unit load will not have to be lessened. Schedules will need. some rea1"l'allb~ment, _but we now have two eleven o'clock periods open for assemblies. One of these could be taken for Fourth Hour activities with an automatic excuse on any day an
a.ssembly is scheduled. As to cutting into study time
-there is no man on campus that couldn't remove one hour from the middle of his day to do something he enjoyed, and still get his assignment done. These activities are just the things everyone "wants to do, but can't find the time." The Fourth Hour Plan offers the time, the place, the facilities.
The actual cost of the plan would be small. Most of the activities proposed need only a room to work in. The ·most ambitious is the machine-shop, but this is an item that Tech has always needed, and should have had years ago.
One final point. This plan in no way does away with student initiative. If students desire to work on their ownfine, excellent. But in certain cases, ( such as art work or machine shop, trained personnel are necessary for guid~nce and instruction where the need arises, bring in qualified men or women from the outside - men of high profes· siona.l calibre who can mold thirty voices into a harmonious singing group, who can paint and sculp themselves, or who know where to place the pipes for a lawn sprinkler system.
SUlllmary: Here is presented a plan for Cal tech students to develop wider interests, latent abilities, hobbies, a chance to learn to work with their hands. It is an opportunity to make Calte<!h unique among technological schools - it will be a feature attraction to bring new and better men to the school, and to turn out more complete graduates.

The man with the perpetual pi pe in his mouth will return to the pos ition of Tech tra iner which he held from 1923 unt il 1938 when he assumed the coaching of the Va rsity und Frosh cross-coun try squads.
