for ASCIT, Rhodes replied thatthere are still many things to bedone, particularly with the rela­tion of' grad students to ASCITand to undergrads, and with theStudent Houses. Rhodes feelshas reached the point Where itthat the ASCIT Research Projectcan be independent of ASCIT fin­ances. But he thinks that theProject should remain an ASCIT­run operation. The most impor­tant thing is to consolidate andcontinue ASCIT's present pro­grams.

statement are Nobel Prize-win­ner Alfred Kastler; Field Prize­winner Laurent Schwartz; Shoi­chi Sakata, Nobel Prize in Phys­ics; Shinichiro Tomonaga, NobelPriz'2 in Physics; and Hideki Yu­kawa, Nobel Prize in Physics.

The statement especially de­s i g nat e d university-based re­search in chemical and biologicalwarfare and other techniques ofwarfare against civilian popula­tions as a "grave violation" ofprofessional ethics. The signerssupported those numerous Amer­ican scholars who have opposedthe war in Vietnam.

The declaration, which was in­itiated by a number of scholarsincluding Prof. Laurent Schwartzof the University of Paris, is alsoa response to the controversyover military and classified re­search which has wracked somany American universities inthe past two years. In fiscal 1967the Defense Department allocat­ed $449 million in research con­tracts to American universities,and in the prior year over 40 uni­versities he'!d contracts for chem­ical warfare research. In the pastyear, however, such schools asthe University of Pennsylvania,Cornell, New York University,and Minnesota have moved toeliminate such research.A Messiah?

body," Rhodes said. "The con­cerns of ASCIT are in my mind,and I'm too personally involvednot to let the student body decideif they want me to remain in of­fice.

"Participation in student gov­ernment is not only an honor but210'0 a job. Students in a groupare more effective in action thanare individuals, so we haveASCIT. The BOD should be re­sponsible to the students, but itmust lead."

When asked about his plans

Over 400 French and Japaneseuniversity scientists appealed totheir American colleagues Mon~

day to refuse to allow their uni­versities to be used for militaryand secret research. Citing the"ethical and professional respon­sibilities" of the world scientiflccommunity to refuse to willinglypermit their discoveries to beutilized for destructive purposes,the foreign scholars indicatedthat a continuation of militaryfunctions on American campuseswould "lead to the determinationof an ever-growing number ofworld scientists and universitiesto interrupt their relations" withinvolved U. S. universities, en­dangering traditional scientifice x c han g e s and conferences

tive films, displays, discussions,and debates. The event was co­ordinated by David Lloyd-Jones,a long-haired editor from theCollege Press Service, whoserved as director for the affair.

The conference marked a radi­cal departure from previous onesin that it neglected to deal withthe fundamentals of journalismin order to probe the role of themass media in shaping worldevents. A release from USSPAdated December 6 1967 summedup the purpose of th meeting inthis warning to prospective dele­gates: "This conference will notteach you to write headlines ornews leads. If that's what you'reafter, forget it. But it will hope­fully teach you some thingswhich will help you produce abetter newspaper by discussingcommunications roles and func­tions, as well as serving to gen­erate new thinking concerningthe role campus newspapersshould play."

It was apparent that some ofthe delegates either had notheeded this warning or were un­willing to have their thinking"generated" in a new direction,for many were visibly discon­tented with the progress of theproceedings. This faction satcontentedly through almost twodays of the affair before they an­nihilated the remainder of theconference in a whirlwind ofprotests and threatened walk-

Amid much speculation as towhether or not he would runagain, A SCI T President JoeRhodes announced his candidacyfor re-election on Tuesday. Al­though the deadline for applica­tions is February 12, only sixTeckers have decided to be candi­dates. As of Tuesday, juniorChris Dede (Ri) had applied forthe vice-presidency, sophomoresBill Nichols (Ru) and Mike Stef­anko (El) had entered for IHCChairman, and freshmen MikeFelland (El) and Nicholas Smith(Pa) had nominated themselvesto be Representative-at-Large.

The Excomm proposals for thereorganization of the BOD havebeen put off until April, so theoffices remain the same. Othervacancies to be filed in the Feb­ruary 20 elections are secretary,treasurer, activities chairman, so­cial chairman, athletic manager,BOC secretary, and editor of theCalifornia Tech. The applicationand $4 filing fee should be sub­mitted to ASCIT Secretary Ga­vien Miyata.

This year the usual waitingand last-minute decisions by can­didates were compounded bytheir waiting to see if Rhodeswould seek a s'econd term. Hischoice was made after much de­liberation, as he tried to add upthings good and bad for ASCITand for himself personally.

Oath ChangeEditor:

Since third term last year, theBoard of Control has been con­sidering the relation of the oathgiven to those appearing beforethe Board to the ideals of theHonor System as well as' the in­dividual requirements of' e a c hcase. Specifically, the Board feelsthat the clause pertaining to sec­recy should not be included inthe oath and that Article VII,Section 4j should therefore bechanged to read, "The oath takenby all persons' appearing beforethe Board of Control shall be: 'Ido solemnly swear to tell thetruth, the whole truth, and no­thing but the truth.''' Thus thelast clause, "and to reveal no­thing that happens in these meet­ings," would be deleted.

The Board feels' that, ratherthan an oath of secrecy, the fol­lowing paragraph should be in­serted at the end of Appendix Ain the Honor System booklet inorder to better express the idealsthat the secrecy clause was in­tended to promote:

"All those appearing be'forethe Board, and the Board itself,are expected to maintain absol­ute secrecy regarding case meet­ings of the BOC. The re'ason isprimarily one of protecting thedefendant. Therefore, should thedefendant wish to discuss the is­sues involved in his case withothers, he may do so at anytime.However, once the defendantinitiates discussion, witnesses inthe case are no longer bound tosecrecy. The Board will s tillmaintain secrecy except as pro­cided in Section 4i above."

The Board of Control unanim­ously recommends that the By­laws change adopting the revisedoath be approved by the mem­bers of ASCIT.

Editor:Although it is not usual f'or

candidates to announce theircandidacy in the Tech, I feelthat we are not in a normal situ­ation. After a great deal of dis­cussion and deliberation, I haddecided to run for IHC Chairmanabout three days before the lastissue of the Tech. Last week'seditorial covered every reason Ihad for running.

The undergraduate students ofCaltech are living in conditionswhich are crying for improve­ment. We can improve the foodservice, the health service, theHouses, and every other phase ofstudent life. All that is needed isstudent awareness. And we cangain that awareness the Academ­ic Reform Groups showed that,and the Research Project is alsoshowing signs of' student aware­ness.

The common ingredient isunity. The IHC can and !'Ihouldbe the basis of that unity. Itmust also now become the basisfor power.

The faculty makes the Insti­tute, but the students sustain it.The students must unite behinda revialized IHe. to attain theirgoals. The IHC must move backto what it once was-the strong­est body on campus.

After several min­utes of monotony, this reviewerdecided to use the film experi­ence as an experiment in groupbehavior. At first the audiencelaughed nervously, then, as it be­came obvious that nothing wasgoing to happen (literally!), theybecame restless. In one respectthe film was fantastic - it wasso static that no one watching itcould get bored. Something hadto happen, but nothing did, andone waited for the action whichnever came, yet had to come.

S.O.S., Dow Chemical,And Caltech to Meet

by Dave LewinWhat's happening with the

cinema today? The Caltech FilmGroup, alias Cinema-Tech, pres­ented last Saturday a programof recent experimental films todemonstrate that not all that'sgood in films must be foreign.The program was preceded by anepisode of a Flash Gordon serial,to wit, "Space Soldier's Trip toMars." This item was appropri­ately received by the audience,and a light mood, which gradual­ly disappeared as the programwent on, was set.

The first item on the bill wasa short starring the world fam­ous mime Marcel Marceau. With­out a word of dialogue, Marcelmanaged to convey first thestory of David and Goliath, thenthat of a butterfly collector. Hisstyle was beautiful, so simple thathis actions were stripped to thebarest possible motions neededto convey his story, and at timeshis body s·eetned a cohesive, un­dulating fluid.

Next came a program of shortexperimental films on the theme"For Life and Against the War."Some of these films, which hadbeen created for the Angry ArtsWeek protest against the war inVietnam, were exceptionally ef­fective in getting their poi n tacross, though many were justa jumble of symbols, too denseto be meaningfUl. The two mosteffective were "The W 0 r d," aminute-long animation of theword "fuck" ending with an al­most subliminal "hooray," and ashort piece wherein a man goesthrough the motions of a quietnight at home, while all aroundhim snipers and guerrillas runthrough his frame cubicle.

Robert Nelson's technical mon­sterpiece, "The Awful Backlash"was an exercise in planned futil­ity. Comparable only to AndyWarhol's eight-hour film of aman sleeping, "Awf'lll Backlash"

Monday the Dow Chemical Company will be recruiting atCaltech. Last year, Dow was picketed because of its napalmproduction, while counterpickets stood up for Dow. This yearthe newly-formed Caltech chapter of Students for a DemocraticSoicety plans to picket Dow.

We hardly expect to see anything more Monday than thesame peaceful demonstrating which accompanied Dow's visitlast year. Indeed, were anything of the order of the UCLA orCal State at L.A. affairs to take place, we would be astonished.

On the one hand, Caltech, like any other university, shoulduphold the right of free speech for anyone. We must rememberthat in the spring Miss Bettina Aptheker spoke here; certainlyher views did not coincide with those of everyone else on campus.But nevertheless, she was accorded all due courtesy and therewere no repercussions to her visit. This was quite different fromthe fiasco that occured subsequent to her visit to the Universityof Redlands. Certainly the protection of free speech will be thereason given for anyone's right to peaceably recruit, picket, ordemonstrate on the Caltech campus.

But there is another side to the question. For anyone whois emphatic in his belief that the policies of an institution, be itthe United States Government or Dow Chemical, are leading toirreparable harm, and that moreover political persuasion will beof no avail in correcting those policies, civil disobedience maybe the only way to provoke a change. The Nuremberg Trialsjustified this idea in an extreme situation, but in the face ofnuclear holocaust, who can say that any "brush fire" is not anextreme situation?

So we see the two main sides to the question. Our hope isthat we live in a land where the protection of free speech is theway to satisfactory policies.

"Well, the Institute figures itcan put all of the chef traineesand other amateurs on the newequipment and still get some­thing edible, while it takes a realpro to handle the old, broken­down equipment in the sou t hdorms' kitchens. Thus, the southdorms get all of the expert foodservice people."

More mixing of the undergrad­uates with the grad students isone possible measure to improvematters.

of the war in Vietnam, a fiscallyconservative mood prevails inCongress, and cutbacks are ex­pected in nearly all of the Adoministration's requests.

It's just that there are too manyjobs and too little time. In a half-hour interviewour man would barely have time to outline thescope and diversity of the opportunities we offer.That's why we published a brochure called "Start­ing Points at General Electric."

Coupled with these was akeynote discussion on Fridaymorning which rambled on withpaltitudes and pathos but was,in this reporter's opinion, a stim­ulating undertaking. Friday aft­ernoon's activities were more di­rect, and consisted of a "numberof concurrent games, displays,and exchanges." Several promi­nent and controversial authorsand personalities presented filmsor displays of topics of impor­tance such as the growth of thecity, the current trends of edu­cational techniques, and thegoals of the civil rights move­ment.

The Caltech Beavers, out·classed frequently in cage con­tests this year, have found anopponent which they can out­class. And Tuesday night theydid exactly that as they over­powered Pacific Christian Col­lege 103-54 in a non-conferencetilt. The victory brought Tech'srecord to 3-14 for the season; theBeavers are 0-7 in conferenceplay. Pacific Christian is one ofthe few teams that Caltech hasfaced this year which was at adisadvantage in height, weight,and depth (Pacific Christian hadonly six players suited for thegame). The Beavers took ad­vantage of their advantages andcame through wtih their mostproductive game of the season.They didn't fare as well in othergames last week, however, asthey were defeated by Redlandsand Cal Baptist.

Tech Research Project was born.None dismayed by the fact thatmany people had been workingfor a long time to conquer airpollution without terrible suc­cess, these fellows, who sup­posedly were also full time stu­dents, decided they would tacklethe problem with Wally Jet En­gine's car, their energy and drivefor attention, and everybodyelse's money. A project as highsounding as this naturally at­tracted a little more attentionfrom some of the other students'but as usual most of the othe;stUdents, if they thought aboutthe matter at all, thought it wassilly. Some of the professorswondered if these student leaderswere really such dreamers to be­lieve that the school would payfor their games after the moneythey had taken from the otherstudents was used up.

Meanwhile the student leadersheld meetings and consulted witheach other and made sure thateveryone who would pay atten­tion was. They devised plans tospend enormous sums of moneybut when no one would give it tothem and they had already spentmore than they had, they figuredthey could get by with only$10,000 for five months. And sobegan the "War On Smog." Thearming for the war consisted ofbuying new batteries for WallyJ. E.'s car with the money takenfrom all the other students. Oneof the first attacks would comein the form of a race of thespeedy war wagon across thecountry, against an electric carto be built by a rival school onthe other side of the countrywhich would start there anddrive to Tech. Those familiarwith racing might at first thinkthat a race like this would provenothing, since the cars would besubjected to different conditions.Thlis apparently didn:t botherWall y J. E. and the stu­dent leaders. Perhaps the studentleaders thought this was unim­portant since it would not cutdown on the attention they re­cieved or the amount of otherstudents' money they co u 1dspend. Perhaps Wally J. E. didn'tthink. Perhaps he thought it wasunimportant because his car wasso slow. It could run at 52 milesper hour for about an hour, thenhad to rest for an hour. WallyJ. E. thought he could make it inabout 100 hours, for an averageof 27 miles per hour. (excitingrace!) This would also give manystudent leaders a chance to get'attention by working the re­chargE' stations. Some people did­n't. understand how this wouldcombat smog. Most people didn'trealize what a horrendous jokethe whole thing was on the restof the student body whose mon­ey was being used up and whowerE' actually liable for all thebills Wally Jet Engine and hispals might run up.

little comment on other than sub­stantive grounds; we will refrainfrom the gutless character attackwhich he employs.

In criticizing the ASCIT Re­&'earch Project, Mr. Keller usesMr. Wally Rippel as a convenientscapegoat. He seems unawarethat at first the Project had cen­tered its interests on world foodproduction and only later decidedto attack the problem of smog.

J. E. built an electric car out ofa Volkswagen bus. The commun­ity was very impressed with theamazing things those Tech boys'were doing and the people whowere involved in student govern­ment were impressed since thecar called outside attention tothem as well. Most of the stu­dents weren't too impressed,especially after they heard thecar go.

Up until this time the studentgovernment had taken moneyfrom the student body to covertheir operating expenses, whichdidn't upset anyone very muchbecause it was accepted that aschool would support such an or­ganization. They also too kmoney from the student body,which was not very large, to buyexpensive jackets and sweatersand blankets for athletes whoparticipated in sports which fewpeople cared much about exceptthe athletes themselves. This up­set a few more people, but this,too, was something accepted fora school to do.

The Wall y J. E. camealong and decided he neededmore money for his electric car.At the same time the people inthe student government decidedthey needed more attention. Acombined effort would clearly beto the advantage of both. So the

But these people didn'trealize how silly they wouldhave looked in the eyes of theother students, had the other stu­dents looked. All this went onvery smoothly and without prob­lem for a long time, since thestudent leaders were fairly harm-'less.

Then one year there was arather obnoxious engineeringstudent named Wally Jet Engine.Wally J. E. first came to atten­tion in his engineering classes byasking ridiculous questions atgreat length to the amusementor sometimes irritation of hisprofessors and fellow students.Once he thought he had inventeda revolutionary new kind ofrocket, which was in reality sooff base that his profes'Sor wasalmost incredulous. But peoplelike this were not really too un­common at this school, which wewill call "Tech," and nobody tookgreat notice of Wally J. E. inmore than a humorous' way.

then moved on to Vietnam, andwhen Lloyd-Jones sensed thatthe session was getting out ofhand, he adjourned it and im­mediately a collage of news clipsfrom Vietnam battlefronts wasprojected upon the walls of themeting hall. Childish cries of"point of order" were raised asseveral delegates rushed the pod­ium.

search Project. No other singlestudent activity gets this muchactive student support. Even theGlee Club number only 60. The lat·te,l' receives $1000 from ASCIT­each year, too. Why not the form­er? Being even more precise, noASCIT dues were used for theProject. The original $1000 wasgiven to ASCIT by the Institutefor advanced planning. Furthe,l"more, the Project has already reoceived another $1000 from the In­stitute and $1000 from TrusteeSimon Ramo. Finally, the Projecthas the support of Dr. Axie Haa­gen-Smit, an expe,rt on air pollu­tion, and also that of the FacultyBoard. The Project indeed hastangible support.

In short, even if Mr. Rippel'scar race does nothing more thangenerate publicity for the Proj­ect, it will have significantly aid­ed a student activity that haseverything to gain, and none ofMr. Keller's money to lose. -Ed.

"A scientific understanding ofthe spiritual relationship be­tween God and man" is not onlypossible but "practical in dailyaffairs."

This was the thesis presentedat Winnett Lounge yesterday ina Christian Science lecture byPaul A. Erickson, C.S.B., of' Chi­cago.

Constructive human accomp­lishments will become far great­er, the lecturer said, when mengain more spiritual insight intowhat "our individual relationshipto God really is."

HE' stated that a deeper "ack­nowledgment of God" is the ulti­mate solution to all problems.

"From this basis we're able toclaim all the resources of ourdivine origin. We can begin torecognize our unlimited capacit­ies."

ThE' lecture was sponsored bythe Christian Science Organiza­tion, a student group on campuS.It was titled "You and God!"

Mr. Erickson quoted VictorHugo: "Most of us don't get outof ourselves the one one-thou­sandth part of what is in us."

This is the problem we all face,said the lecturer. Spirituallystated, it means we must learn"how the laws of God governman and the universe. And howthese laws, when properly under­stood and applied, b r in goutwhat's inside us."

HE' cited this statement by theDiscoverer and Founder of Chris­tian Science, Mary Baker Eddy:"A knowledge of the Science ofbeing develops the latent abilit"ies and possibilities of' man. ItE' X ten d s the atmosphere ofthought, giving mortals access tobroader and higher realms. Itraises the thinker into his nativeair of insight and perspicacity"(Science and Health with Keyto the Scriptures').

The aproach to gaining "aknowledge of thE' Science of be­ing" is' the same as that of aca­demics in general, he said, name-
