Walt W. Rostow and Jerome B. Wiesner, MIT professorsserving the Kennedy Administration in Washington, were in-strumental in secur'ng the release of tle two United StatesRB-47 fliers from Russia, it was revealed early this week.

~il7e on a visit to Moscow shortly after the election last No-vember, the pair apparently convinced Ru.san authorities thatthe fliers' release was essential to 'mnrove Soviet-American re-lations. IThe fliers were released five days after the Kennedymauguiatlon.

From 1934 to 1940, he servedas associate professor'of govern-ment and dean of the facultyat Mills College, Oakland, Cali-fornia. After serving in WorldWar II as assistant chief ofstaff to General Stilwell in theChina-India-Burma Theater, hejoined the.

> a1~ negoti a tion soThe two profes-Sors, attendingt h e Pugwash

J. Wiesner Conference inMoscow, were apparently rec-ognized as being semi-officialspokesmen for the incomingadministration.

It was speculated that thepair also indicated to the Rus-sians that prerequisites to asummit meeting included suc-cessful carmple-ton of nuclear ~'.:"~::-.test-ban negoti-ations, and the : i:' :"signing of a .. .test-ban' treaty : by Premier :g'Khrushchev andPresident Ken-nedy.

Rostow, Dep-uty Assistant to Wiet Rostowthe President for National Se-curity affairs, refused to com-ment on reports that he hadconferred with President Ken-nedy on his meeting with SovietFirst Deputy Minister Vasily V.Kuznetzov. Rostow did confirmthat they had expressed out-rage at the detention of theAmerican fliers.

It had long ago been reportedby another member of the MITfaculty that Rostow and Wies-ner had indicated to the Rus-sians their stroag feelings onthe matter. U5p until this time,however, there had been nopublic statement concerning therole of the two MIT men.

Wiesner, Scientific Adviserto the President, was formerlythe director of the ResearchLaboratory :, Electronics. Ros-tow was conected with theDepartment of Economics andthe Center for Inter-ationalStudies. He is internationallyrecognized for his theory onthe stages of economic growth,particularly as applied to in-dustrializattion.

The Tech attempted to reachthe MIT men Monday. After-noon calls to the \White Houserevealed that Professor Rostowwas in conference, unavailablefor coumment. Later in the eve-nimg a call to his residence inChevy Chase, Md., elicited theinformation that Professor andMrs. Restow, and probably theWiesners, were at a Presiden-tial reception.

Further calls to the WhiteHouse were fritless. Calls toWiesner's Watertown residencedetermined that Mrs. Wiesnerwas with her huswband in Wash-ington.

could be reached for comnmentMonday night, but earlier newsdispatches reported Rostow assaying "that to say Prof. Wies-ner and I had brought aboutthe release of these two fliersis to strain history beyondbearing."

It was confirmed, however,

tickets will be issued altogether,1000 to each of the four majorevents: the Friday Assemblies(including the address of Sec-retary of -State Dean REusk);Friday evening's address byBritish Prime Minister HaroldMacmillan; the Saturday pan-els; and the Sunday Convoca-tion.

No tickets will be availablefor the general public for theSunday Choral Concert.

Room Rent, CommonsICharges Will RemainUrnchaqed Next Year

-Room rent and common mealsfees in the undergraduate men'shouses and in Graduate Housewil remain-unchanged for theacademic year 1961 -62, an-nouneed Phi-lip A. Stoddard,V ice-Treasurer of the MITCorporation, on March 6. Rent-al rates and commons fees arereviewed each January for theacademic year to come, Mr.Stoddard noted, and every ef-fort is made .by economy andcareful operation to avoid in-increases.. In fact, room rentsin the undergraduate houseshave been increased but oncein _ the past ten years. An-nounmed in March, 1957, that in-crease took effect in the. fallterm of that year. Said Stea-

lard, "We look farward to con-tinued cooperation on the partof student government in thehouses in keeping damrage andvacancy losses at a minimu. Ifthis is done, -we have a better.dhance of postponing increasesstill further. The house commit-tees have been doing a goodjob, and their work is truly ap-preciated."'The- Vice-Treasurer pointed

out that renovation and rehabil-itation of the Parallels and Sen-ior House, which was begun inthe summer of 1958 included re-dcoration and refiurnishing of:the quarters af more than 600students. Plans call for a simni-lar facelifting in the other un-dergraaduzate houses and Grad-tuate House in the ensuingyears.

On Saturday, Mlarch 18, at 8:30 p.m. the Chinese Inter-eollegiate Council will present-the Yeh Yu Chinese Opena Ass-ciation in a program of two classic Peking operas in KresgeAuditoriumnm This performance will mark the first time Chineseopera appears in the Boston area.

rfbe two operas betg presented in the tracitional PekingSfle are "Pickirng Up The Jade Bracelet" and "Volunteer'sFarewell." Staging will include rich costuming, elaborate make-up, very little sceery, aiad nls~ial accompaniment an authenticold instrants.

Members of the Yeh Yu Chi-nese Opera Association are Chi-nese who live in the U.S. TheTegular occupations of the ac-tors range from professor atYale University to housewife.As a non-profit organizationte proceeds of the group's per-formances go toward paying ex-penses, largest of which are thebeavy enmbroidered costumesworn in the performances.

Make-up and costuming arevery important in Chinese op-

era. The character of an actoris shown by the use of certaincolors. For example, red make-up symbolizes loyalty and up.rightness; yellow ird}icates-craftiness, and white denoteswickedness. Besides identifica-tion -by the use of coloring, eachcharacter type has its own par-ticular type of costume.

Chinese instrument have al-ways been used to accomanaytfve human voice. The leadinginrstrument in the Chinese oper-a is the hu-ch'in, a two-stringedviolin which make a high-pitch-ed, wailing sounrd. The smallorchestra of Chinese instru_men.t is led by 'a conductorwho sets the tempo on a drumand wooden blocks. Other in-struments which will be heardat the performance Saturday in-elude the cymbals, the er hu(a stringed instrument), largeand small gongs, as well asthe hu-ch'in.

Chtinese classical oera pro-rides instruction in the ctliturewhich has led the Chinese forcenturies. For a really differentevening of entertainment, thispresentation will undoubtedlyturn the ticket.

Didn't always finish lec-tures.

Prof. Gamble: Shoewmanship, humor, inter-est in course, excellent presentation of material.Boring (small minority). Professor Gamblegives an interesting and quite illustrative pic-ture of 5.01. His experiments all are well pre-pared, to the point. His work~ing of examplesis quite helpful. His humor is invaluable inkeeping the interest of the class. Presents bor-ing material in the most interesting way pos-'sible. He is really a great lecturer. Please keephim.

Prof. Tborson: Usually aimed way abovethe heads of majority of students -an interest-ing lecturer,' but he often snows students,-either repeated notes, or completely extraneousmnaterial. Complete and clear coverage of .ma-terial, a very good instructor. Should leaveproblem solving to instructors, tries too hardto be profound, instead of coming down to thelevel of the' student. Sometimes confusing,should prepare demonstrations.

Prof. M~oore: Makes the course as interest-ing as possible: combination of poor lighting,stuffiness, Prof . Moore's melodic, soporific,voice and dull material can be blamed for uln-interest. A room like 26-1()0 with more dynamicprofessors who 'truly seem interested wrouldgreatly help. A very good teacher. Presentedthe subject in an uninteresting manner and withlittle continuity. Writing small and difficult todiscern. Has a neck-stiffening habit of walkingthe length of the hall constantly.

5.01 in general: I don't think that I getvery much out of chemistry lectures, but myviews may be rather prejudiced by the fact thatsomething-ither the ventilation, or lack of it,iri 10-250, or the lecturer's voice tends to makeme very steeply during them. I don't think thatthe Chemistry Department should recommendthat we buy Pauling. I will certainly admit thatif a student is having difficulty with a certainpoint, this book can probably help him, but Idon't thing that most of the freshmen use thebook enough to warrant "suggesting" its pur-chase. Should be placed in Reserve Book Room.Should not eliminate class after a quiz. It seemsas though only 509v of the class attended lec-tures and of those 30% were asleep. Either thechemistry lecture material should be betterpicked (not just a re-hash) . or let the theoryand subject matter be amplified in recitationperiods. The chemistry labs are excellent (com-pared to physics) because they are interesting,informative, beneficial in learning lab teach-niques, and related to the subject matter understudy. The instructor just sits the whole periodand grades experiments..-

Thne Peace CorpxsAssuming all goes well with Congress, it

now appears that President Kennedy's pro-posed Peace Corps, in some form, will soon bea reality. The obvious feature of the proposalis its extreme idealism. The Corps volunteerswill be asked to live on the level of the popu-lation of the country in which they are work-ing. In certain parts of Africa and Asia, thiswill mean discomfort and hardship. If, on topof this, the volunteers are drafted into thearmy after their period of service, the hardshipwrought could be extreme.

Four, five, or six years spent in college,plus possibly two years in the Peace Corps,plus two years in the military would demanda great deal of sacrifice of anyone with familyor financial obligations. If there is no draftexemption of some kind, there may not be muchof a Peace Corps; fortunately, it appears thatsome kind of "gentleman's agreement" will beworked oult with regard to deferring and per-haps tacitly exempting, Corps volunteers.

As reported in The Tech last week, theForeign Opportunities Committee in Inscommis investigating and setting up three differentinternational co-operation programs. There hasalso been a suggestion made, that many of theforeign students at American universities wouldbe interested in the Peace Corps, whether asparticipants or as instructors in the training pro-gram. -This is a worthwhile suggestion, andshould be looked into. In any case, the MITstudent body is very much interested in theproposals and we hope some kind of coherent

Lecturers CriticizedLast reading period, the Student Committee

on Educational Policy (SCEP), a subcommit-te of In'scomm, passed out a questionnaire tothe freshman class. Th:e questionnaire was de-signed to obtain a consensus of opinion of thefreshmen concerning their lecturers and reci-t~ation instructors, plus their general reaction tofreshman courses as a whole.

The committee has completed a compilationof the opinion regarding lecturers and courses.The reduction of the data on recitation instruct-ors is still going onl, and should be availableshortly. The committee, under the chairmanshipof^ Romney B3iddulph 61, has -been reluctant tohave the report upon the lecturers imade public.The Tech has decided however, for several rea-sons, to print the report.

The departments seem to bnave very littleapparatus for determining the quality of teach-ing 'by faculty members. As far as can be de-termined, the only department that regularlyquestions the students with regard to their in-structors is the Department of Economics. Manyof 'the department heads apparently rely uponword of mouth to bring them complaints, orcompliments, regarding their staff. There seemsto be no machinery for bringing to an instruct-or's attention any criticism or helpful sugges-tions that might make him a better teacher.

MIT students are fatalistic; if they are stuck-with a -poor instructor, they may complain aboutit to their friends, rarely to the course or de-partmuent head. And finally, we believe thevery nature of classroom teaching should dic-tate a review' of instructorial performance. Withtuition rates as hlighw as they are, a lecture is insome sense a paid performance. A playgoer ex-pects his money's worth from a play; a studentshould be able to expect as much from his lec-turer. For this reason, we arc reprinting belowthe comments of the freshmen on the four 5.01Chemistry lecturers, as well1 as the reaction to5.01 as a whole. Next week we will print the18.01 Calculus and 8.01 Physics comments.-

Tile comments are given as they appearedin tile report. They are meant to give a repre-sentative sampling, proportional to the favor-able and ,adverse criticism. About one-half theclass replied to the -questionnaire, and one-hal-fof those commented on their lecturer by name.The reader may draw his own (s:nclusions.

Fencers Year;Inexperence HurtSeasns Effors

A team of mostly sophomoresthe ParT fencing squad thisyear compiled a 4-6 record,_ thefirst losing season in 11 years.Wirns were chalked up overTrinity College (15-12), Brad-ford-Durfeeo (14-13), HolyCross (15-12), and the Univer-sity of Conmecticut (18-9).Matches lost were to Harvard(7-20, 13-14), Cornell (5-22),Atlan.tic Coast Champion, Stev-ens Tech (8-19), and secondbest in the nation Columbia(5-22). The freshmen lost twiceto' Harvard (13-14), 8-19).

Instructor ('Maestro" to thesquad) Silvio N. Vitale empha-sized that this record is dueonly to a lack of experience,not of quality. Because of theproportionally large number ofsophomores on the varsity thisyear, future prospects for twosuOcesul seasons oft orrmpeti-tion are considered unusuallygood. Vitale meftioned severalmen, among them captain BillJulian and Steve Miiler, epee,Bob Mason and Steve Reznek,sabre, and Bob Levis and DaveWlakeman, foil, as beirng stand-out fencers. Since all of theseexcept senior Julian are soph-onmores,: a return to winningseasons seemns likely.

The antient art of fencingis conducted somevwhat differ-ently than the other intercol-legiate sports here at MIT. Thegame is played with an eye tothe unchanging traditional me-thods practiced in Europe for·centuries, in that the fencersare ranked as cadets, squires,cavalhiers, and knights aocord-ing to individual improvementand position on the team. Op-ponents salute. the director,match officials, spectators, andeadh other before a match isbegun. Fencing itHelf requiresgentlemanly conduct and re-spect for all concerned, andthe team _spirit is corres-pondngiy greater. A fencer iselevated to the varsity not byVitroe, but on the aeceptanceof the ct'her fencers. This insist.ence on the traditional aspectof fencingl has made the sportun:iqcue at MIT.

Several of MITs regulamturned in disappointing scoresearly in the finals add thematch was up for grabs goinginto the sixth and last relay.Fortunately, Jerry Skinnercame through with a score of284 to clinch the victory by abare two point margin, Thetotals were: MIT 1420, FirstPlace; Coast Guard 1418, Sec-ond Place; 'Northeastern 1412,Third Place; Maine 1409; NewHampshire 1408; and Provi.dence College 1403. Steve Smithand Roger Frech with 285's,Skinner and Pete Bogdon with284's, and Al Gleim with a 282produced the winning score of1420.

In addition to a plaque andmedals for the day's victory,the team also collected severalawards for high season individ-ual averages. Bob Clarke's av-erage of 287 was tops in theleague, while team captain BillLeffler was third and four oth.er Tech shooters were amongthe top twenty award winners.MIT attained further distinc-tion when it was announcedthat team coach Major RobertIreland has .been elected toserve as League Director forthe coming season.

Wri;th one of the busiest sche.doles in its history, the 1960-61indoor track team showedmarked irmprovements oversquads of recent years. Its 2-6slate in dual and triangularmeet competition marked tfhefirst time in at least four sea.sons that the varsity has beenable to secure more than asingle victory indoors. In ad-dition to the seven regularlyscheduled meets, the squad metHarvard in an informal'con.test,placed 11th in the AAU IndoorChampionships, fifth in theGreaters Boston Champion-sthips, and competedin the BAAand Knights of Columbus meetsin Boston Garden. The fresh-men posted a 5-3 mark.

High-light of the campaignwas the 61-51 victory over theUniversity of New Hampshire,a nip-and-tuck affair which wasnot decided until the finalevent, the mile relay. The othervictory came in a 70-43 routof Brandeis.

Co-captain Don Morrison '61was the top point-getter forthe Engineers with 85-1/12points in regular competition.The versatile senior competedin the dash, both high and lowhurdles, broad jump, high jumppole vault and mile relay.

Joe Davis, '61, was secondwith 46 points, despite missingthe 1ast foutr meets due to aninjured ankle. Davis was a con-sistent winner in the high jumpand both hurdles. Third h!ighscorer was Co-captain GeorgeWithbroe, '61,whose specialtieswere the 600, 1000, and relayewith 38-1/4 points.

Al Ramo '63 provided thescoring punch in the weights,and was a double winner inthe Bates and Brandeis meetsSTom Goddard '63, twice turnein 4:34 mile performances, fastest time by a T'elch runner ithree years, an also doubled i1.000. Stevre Banks '62 moveup to the two-mile late in thseason and copped the Beaverfirst win in that event in threwyears.

"Oh, goody," she said when she saw the car. "This suits mysimple tastes to a 'T'. Come, let us speed over rolling highwaysand through bosky dells."

And away they drove. All that day and night they drove andfinally, tired but happy, they parked high on a windswept hill.

,"Marlboro?" he said.'Yum yum/' she said.

They lit up. They puffed with deep contentment. "Youknow," he said, "you are like a Marlboro--mild and freshand relaxing."

"But there is a big difference between Marlboro and me," shesaid, "because I do not have a Selectrate filter nor do I comein soft pack or flip-top box."

They laughed. They kissed. He screamed."What is it, my dear," she cried, alarmed."Look at the speedometer," he said. "We have driven 200

miles and this car costs 100 a mile and I have only $20 left.""But that's exactly enough," she said."Yes," he said, "but we still have to drive home."They fell into a profound gloom. He started the motor and

backed out of the parking place.'"Hey, look!" she said. "The speedometer doesn't move when

you're backing up."He looked. It was true. "Eureka !" he cried. "That solves my

problem. I will drive home in reverse. Then no more miles willregister on the speedometer and I will have enough moneyto pay!"

"I think that's a marvelous idea,"' she said, and she was right.Because today our hero is in the county jail where food, clothesand lodging are provided free of charge and his allowance ispiling up so fast that he will have enough money to lc-'- ks girlriding again as soon as he is released.

A double-bvertimne victory inhie traditional alurmni game

closed the varity hockeyteam's most successful seasonin years. The icemen matchedeight victories, including onespell of five straight, againstsix losses.

Half the Tech wires came inpairs, with two over WorcesterPolytech and two over Wesley-an. Amherst, pennsylvania,Holy Cross and Salem StateTeachers also fell under Cardi-nal alnd Grey skates. Defeatscame from Colgate, UfMasstwice,. Fort Devens, Bowdoinand UConn.

MIT found its favorite victimin WPI, winning 11-0 on theBriggs Rink and 6-2 at Worces-ter. But it was nearer twoshutouts than the second scoreindicates. Soon after the open-ing face-off, MIT moved quick.ly into WPI ice and fired ashot at the Worcester netmind-er, who gloved the puck andheld it for a short time. MITcoach Ben Martin, thinking theplay dead, sent the second lineonto the ice, but play hadn'tbeen whistled down, and theentire second team drew pernal-ties because of the 10 men onthe ice. WPI scored twice be-fore MITrr camne back to 'fuistrength at the six minutemark.

"LOVE IN REVERSE"

They met. His heart leapt. "I love you," he cried."'Me, too, hey," she dried."Tell me," he cried, "are you a girl of expensive tastes?""No, hey," she cried, "I am a girl of simple tastes.""Good," he cried, "for my cruel father sends me an allowance

barely large enough to support life.""Money does not matter to me," she cried. "'My tastes are

simple, my wants are few. Just take me riding in a long, new,yellow convertible and I am content."

"Goodbye," he cried, and ran away as fast as his chubby littlelegs could carry him, for he had no convertible, nor the money tobuy one, nor the means to get the money, short of picking up hisstingy father by the ankles and shaking him till his walletfell out.

He knew he must forget this girl but, lying on his pallet at thedrnmitory, whimpering and moaning, he knew he could not.

At last an idea came to him: though he did not have the moneyto buy a convertible, perhaps he had enough-to rent one!

Hope reborn, he rushed at once to an automobile rentalcompany and rented a yellow convertible for $10 down plus 100a mile, and with many a laugh and cheer drove away to pickup the girl.

ist in the clarinet quinrtet,which was also well done. I.tdid seem as though the dy-namic range of the clarinetmight have been greater, butthis may have been a result ofseating in the supersensitivecenter of the Kresge stage.

The Schubert Octet providedthe clim'ax of the afternoonand was played in a clearlydifferentiated style. BassoonistErnst Pamperi, and hornlst Jo-sef Veleba rounded out thegroup. There seemed to be bal-ance problems here, notablywith the hornist, who appearedto have some lip trouble, butthe overall performance waspleasing.

A grateful audience ack~now-ledged their appreciation bycal.ling the group back forthree well-deserved bows andan encore. This performance byeight fine musicians providedan excellent finale to the 1960-61 Humanities Series.
