ATHLETICS AT THE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY.

The following is from an editorial in the last issue of the Tech.:

"By the lack of sympathy which the faculty has always shown for our athletics of all kinds, it would seem that they disregard or hold in light esteem the benefits derived from healthy exercise. A certain amount of recreation and relaxation of the mind is absolutely necessary to make a successful student. The question is, whether it is better to obtain this required rest by playing tennis or ball, or by playing cards and billiards, and going to the theatre. It is surely better to be storing up health and energy for future use, than to adopt the latter course, which, though generally considered harmless, cannot claim decided advantages."
