By Jay GlassA new fraternity chapter, Zeta

Psi, has been accepted as an addi-tion to the-MIT fraternity system.Greg.McElroy, Executive Direc-tor of Zeta Psi Fraternity, com-mented that "we're very pleasedthat the IFC chose us out of thefive nationals that applied" and"MIT fits extremely well into ourown international network ofchapters."

McElroy spoke at a receptionFriday night in Burton dininghall. He added that iMIT was alogical choice because the frater-nity system here is the strongest inNew England. Roughly 60 MITundergraduates were welcomed atthe meeting by three executive of-ficers, several Boston area alumniand groups from Zeta Psichapters at Worcester PolytechnicInstitute, the University of Mas-sachusetts, Brown, Tufts, and theUniversity of Connecticut.

According to McElroy, Fri-day's party was only the first step.in the process of colonizationOnce students have shown an in-terest in the fraternity, plans callfor Zeta Psi alumni and a spon-soring chapter to select a coregroup of pledges. The sponsoringchapter will come from WPI,whose members will overseepledge training.

The precise questions the com-mittee will attempt to addressitself to are as yet nebulous, saidKassakian, because the commit-

tee was formed as a result of ad-ministrative initiative, not inresponse t o a specific problem. Ingeneral, the committee will ex-amine the 'philosophical, finan-cial, social, and gastronomic"aspects of dining on camnpus.

There is a world of dif-ference between a liberal and aradical. A liberal believes thatwhatever ills exist in the pre-sent system can be sufficientlyameliorated through reform.A radical (the word simplymeans going to the root ofthings), on the other hand,believes that the system is sofundamentally flawed that ma-jor structural changes arenecessary.

It is because radicals are wil-ling to value community andcollective action that theyoften get stereotyped as beingpower hungry and guilty of"group think." Because theyhave achieved a strength ofconviction that can only be ar-rived at by acting on the worldand not from mere abstract in-teilectualizing, radicals areoften stereotyped as beingclosed-minded and one-sided.This is not to say that thetendencies pictured in thesestereotypes are not realdangers that must constantlybe guarded against by peopleworking for basic socialcharage, but they are .not intrin-sic to the radical enterprise.

This attitude on the part of stu-dents has caused them to returnto the building during past alarmsbefore firemen arrive, accordingto Third West Hall Chairman,Mlichael Kan '80. He pointed outthat the practice irritates firemen.

Even the firemen appear tohave grown accustomed to falsealarms at MIT. "Last term wehad a fire here and the firemenwere walking around saying, 'isthis really ;a fire?"' related Kirk.Fireman Bill Lively laughed afterSaturday's alarm, and recalledpast MIT alarms having suchbizarre catalysts as a student do-ing chin-ups in the hall and an air-borne loaf of bread. Asked aboutthe feasibility of installing harder-to-activate alarms or inhibitingdevices such as protective cages,Lively replied, "What can you do

Ames Street Substation Lieute-nant Mangan said that a cagewouldn't serve any purpose. "Justtell them to put their frisbeesaway," he added.

On a similar note, the Chief ofPolice asked East Campus leadersto talk to residents abouft rough-housing in the halls. Kernan hasbeen told by police that mental in-stitutions get fewer false alarmsthan MIT and Harvard. He ex-pressed concern over "bad willfor MIT."

Kirk said he plans to take theproblem to the MIT Safety Officeand commented that "somethingought to be done about it soon."

Kernan noted that proposals tochange the type of alarm or in-hibit access to it have come uprepeatedly in the past, but with noresults.

On the economic side, the com-mittee will investigate what stu-dents get for.their money. As partof this, the entire commonsprogram will probably bereviewed and compared to otherdining options available to stu-dents.

Ss small utifulor- Carter s govt'?

By Bob WassermanPresident Jimmy Carter is proposing a new Department of Educa-

tion, the second cabinet-level Federal agency he has created in the past-year. Could this be the same Jimmy Carter who intends to "streamline"the federal bureaucracy?

The Department of Education plan is still being debated in Congress,although both the House and the Senate agree with Carter's idea. TheHouse recently passed a bill granting the new Department a beginningbudget of $13.5 billion, placing it among the largest funded federalagencies.

The House Bill also excluded several bureaus and services from theCarter Administration's

original proposal for thenew department. Child

_l _ |W~~~~~~nutrition programs would

, remain under the jurisdic-on of the Agriculture

Department, and scienceprograms would continue to be administered by the National ScienceFoundation. Also being left out of the Education-organization wouldbe.the Indian education services, which would still be run by theDepartment of the Interior. Judging by events in Louisville, Ky.. this

may be a bad idea. This fall fifty Louisville students have applied forexemption from court-orde'red busing by claiming American Indianancestry in order to qualify under a minority exemption clause.

Last October Carter began his federal re-organization by forming aDepartment of -Energy under the directorship of James Schlesinger.The Energy Department consolidated the Federal Energy Administra-tion and the-Energy Research and Development Administration, im-mediately employing 20,000 people, Despite its $10.4 Billion budget,though, the Department's employees still have not yet settled into one

central location, being distributed among seventeen Washingtonbuildings. From its inception the new agency has been involved in in-fighting among nuclear and solar energy proponents, and critics haveeven claimed that this "consolidation" increases bureaucratic -red taperather than decreases it.

Carter's re-orga nization of the federal system, typical of aDemocratic President, is much less aesthetically pleasing than previousefforts by his predecessorsin the fifties and sixties. In these years newagencies were formed with catchy acronyms, although functions wereless easily remembered. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) en-visioned a place where people could huddle for shelter, while Americanscould say of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW), "whew, what arelief!". Both the new Departments of Energy and Education can besimplified to DOE, which implies that these groups may just be out tomake a fast buck. (What doe isn't?)

The two new departments comprise the first major expansion of thefederal system since 1967, when the Department of Transportation wasintroduced. Now there are more than ·a dozen cabinet-levelbureaucracies alone, many of which ave been in existence only since theend of World War II.

American politics since the Depression has involved an increase ingovernmental services and programs, and the formation of Carter'stwo new bureaucracies may serve genuine needs of the US. But ratherthan reducing the Washington governmental establishment and expen-ditures, these new agencies will increase them. Already $25 billion hasbeen spent on the creation of the Departments of Energy and Educa-tion, - and it is doubtful that any of the established bureaucracies willrelinquish any part of their present budget, even though they may havelost part of their services.

Nor will the new agency directors, although part of the President'scabinet, do a great deal of advising. Carter already has a select group ofaides. and accomplices on almost all policy areas, and many Cabinetmembers are presently being ignored.

Without harping on yet another broken campaign promise of Jimmy-Carter's, it still must be noted that Carter's plan to reduce the size andscope of the federal bureaucracy has failed. Whether through an ig-norance of how bureaucracies work and their systems of self defense, orthrough a deliberate policy of.expanding the government, JimmyCarter-will leave the White House with a larger government than whenhe arrived.

The lack of concern of the MIT Administra-tion toward protecting students from abuse atthe hand of American intelligence agencies has

been a grave injustice. The CIA issue is farfrom over, however, and the insensitivity ofChancellor Paul Gray. and others must. cease

before further developments.Earlier this year MIT created the Ad Hoc

Committee on MIT and Intelligence Agenciesin response to a report in 1976 by the SenateIntelligence Committee which urged Americanuniversities to "set ethical standards" for theirmembers. No students were named to this adhoc committee, however, and Gray refused to

comply with requests from student governmentand media to include students. Gray wronglyreasoned that "students have nothing to con-

tribute" on these policy-making issues concern-ing the CIA.

In June Gray, with the recommendation of

the Ad Hoc Committee, filed a Freedom of In-

formation Act (FOIA) request with the CIA in

order to obtain all available documents onMIT and the CIA. Gray admitted that he hadmade the FO!A request to get this informationfirst, rather than discovering the documents in

the pages of The Tech or The Boston Globe,

both of which are also entitled to make anFOIA request. If Gray intends to withhold any

documents, -however, this is an improper at-

titude for an educator investigating covert ac-'tions of the CIA in order to protect and inform

his university.The amount of material released by the CIA

from the FOIA request could-be great, perhapseven a "freight car load," according to one in-

formed source. Prof. Kenneth Hoffman,chairman of the CIA Committee, said he would

not read all of these documents himself, butaside from this assurance, no formal procedure

for reviewing the documents, which may arrivebefore the end of the year, has been announced.

Although all names in the released material

will be deleted and most of the d o cu m e n ts willprobably be routine correspondence, the CIA-

papers could reveal vital information on the.

CIA's operations on the MIT campus. The

documents must be indexed as soon as they arereceived, and then a committee, including stu-

dents, must be -appointed to read the docu-ments. Also a public reading room must be es-

tablished, for suppression of these documents

and secrecy in their handling suggest the verymethods of the CIA itself.

The CIA Committee has promised to holdone or more public meetings on MIT and the

intelligence agencies. This committee must also

agree to release all proceedings -of the meetings,and further educate the MIT community on the'issues in debate. - -

would be asked, "Excuse me, butare you a foreign student?", or thepicture might be noted, "This'foreign student simulated."

But seriously, we Asian-Americans aren't especially notedfor our ethnic chauvinism, and wearen't quite as tightly wound-assome other minorities. Practicallyrspeaking, a picture of anAmerican Chinese doesn't lookany different from that of onefrom abroad (they all lookalike...'?), and Chinese actorsplay the parts of Japanese all thetime. I really don't mind standingin for a foreign student if it getsmy picture in the bulletin, and Iwouldn't want to ruin anychances that the picture might berun in future issues. So what's mypoint? To the administration-please keep the picture as long asyou would any other. But nexttime, try a little-harder andget thereal McCoy, instead of just anAmerican look-alike.

Arthur Hu '80

could come up with some spielabout Asian-A mericans being vic-tinms o' oppression and viciousstereotypes for over 200 years,about the complete. lack of anyAsian-American sports, music, orTV stairs, and about the thou-sands of Americans who weredragged from their homes, andwere put into concentrationcamps because their Japanese des-cent made them somehow lessAmerican.

A case might be made thatsince there was no recognition orapology for the mistake that theadministration might be con-strued to be bigoted, or racist.From that; one might even call

for the resignation of Paul Grayand Jerome Wiesner, since theywere ultimately responsible forthe content of the publication. Asolution might include a man-datory course in Asian-Americanhistory for all the administration.Before taking pictures, the subject

· To the Editor:A few days ago, I was thumb-

ing through the MIT admissionsbulletin, and I was pleasantly sur-prised to find a picture of myselfand my stand partner DanielYuan playing in the MITSymphony. However, I was evenmore surprised to find that thepicture was an illustration for thesection entitled "ForeignUndergraduate. Admissions."While Seattle and Florida may bea bit far removed from NewEngland, they're.not quit that far.It totally beats me how anyonecould possibly mistake a pair ofChinese-Americans for foreignstudents. MIT may justly standfor Made In Taiwan, but not allof us Asians are foreign, not byany means.

Probably the last thing. MITneeds now is more gripes fromoutraged minorities, but in thename of equal time, a guy couldhave a lot of fun with this. One

of compulsory commons and aseries of smaller dining halls onthe pattern of the great Europeanuniversities, like Oxford andCambridge, where dinner is a ma-jor event in the day.

On: the most basic level thecommittee will try to determinewhat dining should be and how toachieve it, said Kassakian. Thisrequires that the committee col-lect and assimilate large amountsof information.

To hfielp them in this endeavor,three working groups, composedof faculty residents and students,will be formed. These groups willsolicit opinions from students andthe. MIT community in general,serve as a forum for discussion,develop a set of issues and ques-tions the committee should dealwith, and survey the student bodyon these issues.

There will be three groups set'up, East Campus Dining Alter- '

natives, Baker/MacGregor Din-ing Programs, and West CampusDining - Alternatives. The EastCampus group will be chaired byProfessor of MechanicalEngineering Bora Mikic, facultyresident at Senior House, and willconsist of students from EastCampus and Senior House. Theywill be studying the dining op-tions in the east part of thecampus including WalkerMemorial Dining Hall and cook-ing in those dorms, neither ofwhich have any kitchen facilities.

The Baker and MacGregorgroup will be chaired by Baker's

:housemaster Professor of -Earthand Plenetary Science NafiToksoz. It will mainly be con-.cerned with the commonsprograms in the dormitory dininghalls. In addition to students fromthose two dorms, residents ofNew House, Burton and McCor-mick will also be involved, assome of them dine in the twohalls.

The third group will be chairedby Julian Beinart, professor ofArchitecture, and include resi-dents of the remaining un-dergraduate dormitories in westcampus and AshdownHouse.This group will study thedining options available in theStudent Center and also the stu-dents who cook in these dorms,all of which have at least partialkitchen facilities.

Kassakian emphasized,however, that these groups,besides addressing these im-mediate issues, should "expandtheir horizons to cover all of thecampus eating scene." He alsosaid that each group will havesome people from the Dean's Of-fice to act as resource personneland to direct the flow of informna-tion.

The committee will be workingthrough the fall term on definingissues and gathering opinions sothat by IAP the working groups

- have produced "a snarl of ideasand issues."

Spring term will be spent by thecommittee and the workinggroups synthesizing these issuesinto a coherent set of recommen-dations. The final draft of thecommittee's report will be writtenover the summer for presentationto Chancellor Paul Gray in thefall.

Kassakian said he was op-timistic about administrationresponse to the recommendationsbecause the study was started onthe Chancellor's initiative. Heconcluded, that the recommenda-tions would involve long rangesolutions and that they wouldtake into consideration theoverall impact of each suggestionon the MIT community.

By Michael RiesIs there football at MIT? Yes!

The MIT football club scrim-maged against two top-rankedsmall college teams, Hudson Val-ley Community College and Sien-na College, Saturday in Troy,N.Y. The players and coaches ofall three teams were baffled asMIT clearly dominated bothscrimmages.

Forty-five students have joinedthe club and all of them played inSaturday's scrimmage. CoachTed Rose .says he hopes "themomentum generated on Satur-day will carry through the rest ofthe season," and he added, "wejust need to polish up on a fewareas."

Thie club uses a 5-2 type defense(five defensive linemen with twolinebackers) which is described asan "attacking" defense. Avariable offense has been set upled by Bruce Wrobel '79 atquarterback.

The football team is anxiouslypreparing for the season openeragainst Fitchburg State at l:00pmSunday. A player commented,"Fitchburg isn't that far awayand we hope people will come towatch the game."

The club has arranged for atleast one spectator bus for theFitchburg game. Tickets andmore information are expected tobe available Wednesday throughFriday from 12:00 to 2:00pm inLobby I 0.

is more difficult to define; however, theforce behind Kozo!'s book seems to be hissense of morality and his complete indigna-tion at the American educational system.

Kozol's book is easy to read, the subjectmatter is relevant to everyone, and his con-clusions may unsettle you from your placein this elite institution of education andresearch. I hope you will give it a chance.

These arguments may seem sketchy,because of the difficulty in presenting awell-constructed ten-page argument in afew sentences. Kozol's political andeconomic ideas are certainly important fac-tors in the arguments of his book. Kozolwrites of the "unjust social order" in theUnited States. He is deeply concerned withthe plight of the poor while the rich enjoyunheard of luxuries. His political viewpoint

By Jay Glass"This season looks very dif-

ficult to predict," mused varsitysoccer coach Walter Alessi, "butwe've improved every year I'vebeen here."

Prospects for the upcomingseason appear promising for "hesoccer team, who return all butone of last year's starters from ateam that finished with a 7-6record in 1977, the first winningseason since 1963. However, thelone gap will be a big one to fill asstellar goalie Jamie Bernard is in-eligible to compete this season,due to the NCAA's five-yeareligibility limit. Bernard, a formertransfer student, was out of

' school two years before coming toMIT. Under the rules this will behis sixth year, making him ineligi-ble. Senior Tom Smith, the starterin 1976, will handle goalkeepingthis year.

As of this writing, the startingline-up will include fullbacks TomTheurkalif '79, Paul Thompson'79, and Robert Sullivan '79; mid-fielders Michael Raphael '79,Robert Currier '79, and LuisBoza '79; and forwards WilliamUhle '81, Jay Walsh '81, andZanda Ilori '79.

Last year's team was noted forits tenacious defense, giving uponly 14 goals in 13 games to offseta lackluster offense. When askedabout this year's game strategy,Alessi replied that the defensewould again be the strongest partof the team, and defensive perfor-mance would probably be the keyto a successful season. He alsosaid that the offense has been"playing much, much better"during preseason, but that once inscoring position, "the problem isputting the ball in the goal."

The speed of the front linelooks to be improved with the ad-ditions from the JV team of quicksophomores Uhle ("He'simproved a lot," said Alessi) and!1ori ("If Ilori plays up to poten-tial, we'll have a genuine scoringthreat," stated the coach). Mid-fielders Currier and Boza aresolid starters while Raphael andjunio Allan Strong vie for theother starting position. Aprobable starter in the fullbackposition will be junior Feffrey

, Tyrrell, who was named to theGreater Boston All-League teamin 1977.

the exception of the first game.This year, the Beavers will replaceClark with Harvard as the seasonopener. Harvard and MIT havenot met in soccer since 1975,when the team from that up-stream liberal arts college won 7-1. No MIT soccer team hasdefeated Harvard since 1963, los-ing seven and tying twice since.

The schedule appears moderatelydifficult, with Babson, Harvard,and BU listed as contenders in apreseason poll. Brandeis, the 1976Division III national champs, issure to be out for revenge after1977's overtime upset. The 1978season begins tomorrow after-noon at 3pm, here against Har-vard.
