Sher- wood. The Dean's Office "tentatively" plans to- spread the overcrowding among six dormitories, Sherwood said. Baker House will have six, Burton House 20, East Campus 15, McCormick Hall 14, New West Campus Houses 17, and 500 Memorial Drive 25, he- esti- mated. The average overcrowded room houses about 21/2 students, Sher- wood estimated in August; if his current projections are accurate, approximately 240 students will likely live in overcrowded rooms this fall. The projections are based on an expected freshman class of 1075 students, 40 transfer stu- dents seeking dormitory rooms, and 30 readmitted students, Sher- wood said. If more than 97 over- crowded rooms are needed, he continued, the excess will be spread through the dormitory system. "Anti-rush" activities made in an attempt to keep dormitory spaces open will not be effective in making rooms available for residents enrolled in a ninth term at MIT, Sherwood said. "If I find [an anti-rush] is occuring in a house, I would not necessarily fill empty rooms in that house with ninth-term undergraduates," he declared. Residents in such houses would be required to pay the rent lost from not filling all rooms in the house, he said. Undergraduates will not nor- mally be allowed to stay in the dormitories after eight terms at MIT, Sherwood-said. Institute policy is that "students are eligi- ble [for dormitory rooms] only for eight terms or until they get their bachelor's degree ... at a meeting of the house presidents and the [Dormitory Council] Chairman this was discussed and it was agreed to continue that po- licy," he, said. Undergraduates in a ninth term may be allowed to live in empty rooms, if any, to avoid rent loss, Sherwood said. The In- stitute each year receives approxi- mately forty requests for housing from ninth-term undergraduates. Selecting undergraduates for available rooms "is going to be difficult," Sherwood said. The Dean's Office may consider the availability of rooms in the indi- vidual's present dormitory when granting requests, he added. The overcrowding projection does not include 31 "permanent crowds" in Senior House and East Campus, Sherwood said. The dormitories agreed to change the occupancy of some rooms to make up for beds lost to the in- stallation of kitchens, he added. i 'Permanent crowd' isn't really a good term for it," said Steven Kossar 785, president of Senior House. "We're getting some reno- vations" which will allow the oc- cupancy of the rooms to be rede- signated, he explained. The practice of "ghosting," by which students live in rooms offi- cially rented by other students, is "an anachronism," Sherwood said. Transfer and readmitted stu- dents did this in the past, he said, but "with the opening of 500 Me- morial Drive two years ago, we now guarantee housing for these students anyway." `'':X"C"·c····p·-· d:l ·· · IjfE:i· · n; : x 2: :::. -- I--- I ;";·p;i-···;;- .. h;, ·· ncg :.: : presidents and vice presidents of the national organizations and some members from local clhap- ters, later participated in an in- formal question-and-answer ses- sion.

commitment," Gannon said.Club Amherst has no immedi-

It was hot in the Undergrad-uate Association office on thefourth floor of the Student Cen-ter. Very hot. The type of hotthat can only come out of anM IT radiator on a warm springevening. The 16 students in theroom eyed me with nervous ex-pectation.

Ensuring repres 9ttiris student Bnembers>rl

The Undergraduate As sociation Nominations Committee, inan attempt to improve communication between students serv-ing on various committees and the undergraduates they ostenl-sibly represent, now plans to meet regularly to inform its mem-.bers, to hold campus-wide forums on committee operations, to

report to the Undergraduate Association General Assembly,and to require student representatives to submit written re-ports. However noble the Nominations Committee's objective,its ministrations attend to only the symptom of poor communi-cation, leaving the more general disease untreated.

Students- both undergraduate and graduate- are enfran-chised on faculty, presidential, and other Institute committeesin an attempt to provide representation to those affected by thedecision-making process. Administrators and faculty memberslook to the students serving on their committees to representthe opinion of "^the undergraduates," a group rarely unified inits opinion on a particular issue. Some mechanism is clearlyneeded to ensure those chosen to represent indeed -do so.

Student representatives to committees should be selected bythe elected representatives of the students. Policies and posi-tions must be considered and decided by the undergraduatestudents' elected legislative body; committee members must un-derstandvtheir responsibility to communicate those positions asambassadors for the undergraduate body.

It is too late to reform this year the present, undemocraticappointments system: The Nominations Committee is thisweek selecting student representatives to many important com-mittees. Those chosen to fill seats on the committees should.carefully consider their roles and their responsibilities this year;those working to improve student government must change theway such representatives are chosen in the future.

TUESDAY, APRIL 26. 1983Th The Tech PAGF E) m

To the Editor:I heard a story the other day

that I'd. like to share with you.Two Russians were invited to

visit the United States. In orderto understand us better, they de-cided to go to a baseball game.Their American host, knowingthey would be lost otherwise. ex-plained the rudiments of thegame. Armed with this informa-tion, they drove to the stadium.

They watched the game for afew innings, and then one re-marked to the other, "'What astupid game! The guy stands up,picks up a club, and pretends tobe real macho. When the ballcomes to him, he swings at it andthen chases his tail around a bigcircle. When he returns to hisstarting point, he raises his handand the crowd cheers! A homingpigeon could do better!"

His friend replied, "You'reright. Except that you forgot onething. Sometimes he doesn't makeit all the way around the circle.He stops, afraid of the bullies onthe other team. Such a bunch ofcowards!"

A short time later, the conver-saincontinued. "My favorite is

when a player stands, waiting forthe ball. It comes one, two, three,four times and he doesn't even hitit. Then, really proud of his 'ac-complishment,' he walks part ofthe way around the circle. He

thinks he's beat the bullies on theother team. Hah!"

A man sitting close by couldn'thelp overhearing the conversa-tion, since the two Russians werespeaking so loudly and with a de-cided accent. Enraged by theirtotal misunderstanding of thegame, he got into an argumentwith theln. Later after the game,he muttered to himself, '"ThoseRussians came to see what Amer-ica is like, but they'll never seeanything but the sights, the exter-nal things. They aren't trying tounderstand how the Americanviews his world. They camethinking that America is bad,and they'll look for proof wher-ever they go. Cross-cultural ex-changes only work when theguests try to see the world astheir hosts do."

Robert E. Malchman, I pityyou. In the April 15 issue of TheTech, you wrote about a barmitzvah. You described a lifestylethat you've studied, but nevertried to understand. Like theRussians in the story, youbrought your own prejudices andlet them cloud your appreciationand understanding of what washappening. You should approachlifestyles other than your ownwith an open mind so that yourlife can be enriched.

(Cosntinued from page 4)"The T was on strike.""I had to take my swim test.""I overslept.""I see," I said. '"There were

only three people at the meeting.What do you have to say foryourselves?"

"I saw no evil.""i heard no evil.""I spoke no evil.""Don't monkey with me," I

said. "U. A. Government wasonce a respected member of thiscommunity. I'll get to the bottomof this. Why was he locked in thecloset?" I demanded.

"I don't know," Dimwitt of-fered. 'Maybe he locked himselfin by accident."

"A likely story," I sneered."Despite your protestations. eachof you had a motive for seeingGovernment rendered incornpe-tent. You locked him in there todrive him over the edge.

"With Government incapaci-tated, he is completely in yourcontrol. You control his money,his office space, and his furnish-ings. You control his computertime, his video games, and hisseats on faculty, presidential, andInstitute committees. You canrecognize student activities. Youcan book the bands you like."

Dimwitt was sweating. "Wedidn't do it," he stammered."U. A. was very sick. NWe just gottogether to take care of him untilhe got better."

"That's why you all showed upfor the meeting, I suppose. No,you didn't have to be there; youknew Government was safelytucked away from the prying eyesof his constituents. As long asyou maintained the faqade of try-

ing to help Government, the pub-

lic would be none the wiser. But

you slipped.""Hah," laughed Dimwitt,

'you're just fishing. People will

never believe that."

"Maybe they will; maybe they

won't. But the longer Govern-

ment is kept locked up and in-

competent, the more people are

going wonder. When enough

people start to wonder, it'll be

curtains for you and your greasy

horde."

I walked out. There was noth-

ing more I could do on this case.

If 1 hurried, I could get a cup of

joe before Lobdell closed.

To the Editor:I would like to possibility in my opinion.

Harvard Square is a changing

neighborhood. This area is "fac-

ing trouble and losing business"

because of changes in the avail-

ability of parking space and a

shift in the commercial establish-

ments of the square. As of last

February, the number of alcohol

permits in the square has in-

creased by 36 percent, while land-

marks such as Pangloss and

Schoenhof's academic bookstores

have had to leave or relocate to

make room for new office build-

ings.

Finally, may I suggest that next

year's article on the Coop elec-

tions appear before or during the

first week of elections to have a

significant impact in informing

the student body. Two and a half

weeks after ballots have been sent

out is too late for the majority of

students who have voted or de-

cided not to vote. Also, it would

point out some

inaccurate statements made in

last Friday's article [April 22]

concerning student elections for

the Coop Board of Directors.

The Coop has not cut its con-

tribution to the MIT Community

Service Fund. On March 16, the

Charitable Contributions Com-

mittee, not the "Tech Coop", in-

creased its donation from pre-

vious years to $1500 each to the

MIT Community Service Fund

and Harvard's counterpart,-Phil-

lips Brooks House.

It is true-that "there may soon

be interest in expanding the Coop

to Kendall Square." There are

presently six stores strategically

located to serve the 108,000 MIT

and Harvard students and alumni

who are members of the Coop.

However I did not claim that

there would be a Kendall Coop

"if MlT's directors can convince

the Board." I said MIT's Direc-

tor of Planning, Mr. Robert

Simha would be giving a report

to the Coop Board of Directors

on the development plans and

potential growth outlook of MIT

and Kendall Square at our next

meeting. That meeting occurred

last Thursday in the MIT Stu-

presentation by Mr. Simha, a

The British, always ahead of new trends,have cashed in on the American marketabil-ity of their electronic noodlings with re-markable success. What follows is an over-view of the second wave of lechnopop fromits primary British (and one German) expo-nents:

- "My Perfect Cousin," the Undertones

Heaven 17, on VirginlA rista Records.In the beginning there was the Human

League, one of Britain's first electronicpop bands. Dissatisfied with their lot, thegroup split. One half retained the originalname and recorded the platinum albumDare. The other half, Ian Craig Marsh andMartin Ware, renamed themselves theHeaven 17 (from Anthony Burgess' AClockwork Orange) and recorded the less-than-successful Penthouse and Pavement.

The massive stateside success of the Hu-man League should have tipped off an-other company to immediately release theHeaven 17 album, but more than a yearpassed before it graced our turntables indomestic form. In that year's hiatus, Heav-en 17 substituted n-ewtracks for theweaker cuts. The resulting disc, an alteredPenthouse, is stronger for the changes,

Side 2is a set.of wry political commentaries cen-tering around "'(We Don't Need This) Fas-cist Groove Thang." Displaying charcteris-tic corporate weakness, Arista Recordsmoved this cut from the opening of side 1and buried it on side 2, probably due tothe couplet: "Reagan's president elect/Fas-cist god in motion."

The true highlights of this disc are thenew tracks 'We're Going to Live for aViery Long Time" and the hit '"Let MeGo," a plaintive song about love lost andhope for its renewal. Comparing the suc-cess of '"Let Me Go" to the failure.of theHuman League's recent "Mirror Man," itseems Heaven 17 will indeed live for a verylong time.

Einzelhaft, Falco on A& M Records.The success of After the Fire's "Der

Commissar" has prompted A&M to re-lease the original German version byFalco, along with an album of other Falcomaterial. I prefer the original "Der Com-missar" - it snaps -and bounces alongnicely, unlike its leaden English counter-part -- but the rest of Einzelhaft ("SolitaryConfinement") is only so much ear candy.The all-German Iyrics force most Ameri-can listeners to concentrate solely on themusic, which proves thin and derivative. Ashame, because the titles suggest some in-teresting ideas, particularly in "Nie MehrShule" ("No More School"), which afterall, is a universal sentiment, nicht war?

Side Kicks, the Thompson Twins on AristaRecords.

The Thompson Twins' first album, AProduct of the Thompson Twins, showed itto be a witty band with a knack for ethnicfunk. In the Naine of Love, the group's sec-ond release, tempered the funk with elec-tronics (provided by synth wizard ThomasDolby), creating a minor hit with the titletrack.- Now the Twins are pared downfrom the original seven to just three, and itseems the move also pared away some ofthe creative spark, because Side Kicks isthe band's weakest record.

Singer Tom Bailey sounds as plaintive asever, and Joe Leeway and Alannah Currieadd interesting accents to the sound, butthe disc is no more than retread material."Lies," the first single, doesn't provideenough substantial material to carry awhole song, while "Love on Your Side" isjust. another version of "In the Name ofLove": it even goes so far as to quote thesame riff as a wry reference. The Thomp-son Twins will need a good swift kick-just west of the side - to get out of itscurrent rut.

drip with pompous circumstances, and thelyrics read like Bartlett's Familiar Quota-tions set to music. What is the listener todo in the face of gems like "Give me aninch and I'll make the best of it" from"Reap the Wild Wind" or a reworking ofthe Lord's Prayer in "Hymn?" Ure pro-vided us with the answer in '"Vienna":"This means nothing to me." Damnedright it doesn't.

Quartet, Ultravox on Chresalis Records.

I give up. Ultravox showed such prom-ise: They reined in their worst art schoolpretentions, seemed to recover from theloss of' guiding light John Foxx, and evengave up their New Romantic image, butthe release of Quartet represents a massivebackslide. Singer Midge Ure's tenor hasreverted to an aggravating wail, the songs

New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84), SimpleMinds on Virgin/A & AM Records.

Simple Minds' cinematic approach tonew wave is an anomaly. It layers sweep-ing washes of guitar and synthesizer over asolid, funky base, producing music that issimultaneously arresting and entrancing.New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) alternatesthe harder fdnk of the title cut and"Promised You a Miracle" with the lush"Someone Somewhere in Sumntertime".and "Colours Fly and Catherine Wheel."The band, unlike other synth-based ensem-bles, is not carried solely by its vocalist; infact, the instrumental "Somebody UpThere Likes You" stands out as one of thestronger cuts. Vocalist Jim Kerr adds justthe right touch of drama to the music,-making this Simple Minds' finest album todate.

Allof the musicians sparkle: Guitarist TomFerrier is original and inventive, whiledrummer Scott Musick and bassist GregFreemen provide a powerful rhythmicdrive. The keyboard work is provided byThe Band's Garth Hudson, who also addssynthesizer and saxophone. "The WallsCame Down," the band's current hit sin-gle, provides the album's most pointed po-litical statement:

X don't think there are any Russians,And there ain't no Yanks,Just corporate criminalsPlaying with tanks.

The Call does not seem like a groupwhich will churn out hit singles with eachalbum, rather, the album taken as a wholeis impressive; it's not the type one listensto for certain songs, skipping the othiers.Modemn Romans is full of strong emotionsand pure energy, very traditional in itsform, yet full of a fresh spirit that bringsback th thrill rock had when it was new.

John Stein

Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare,performed by'v the Boston Shakespeare En-semble, directed by Gavin Camzeron- Webb.

In its decision not to modernize, rewrite,or drastically edit Shakespeare's most fam-ous Roman tragedy, the BSC has demon-strated it can perform Shakespeare almostadequately.

Still, the BSC's performance has majorproblems, and the fault lies mainly in theirstars. Only the dynamic Henry Woroniczas Marc Antony is able to capture any ofhis character's depth - Antony. is both agreat friend to Caesar and a calculatingpolitician-soldier.

None of the remaining main perfor-mances, however, is particularly notewor-thy. Joseph Gargiulo and Carter Reardonare reasonable as Julius Caesar and Cas-sius, but their acting is hardly more thancompetent.

The key to the play, and its major fail-ing, is Brutus. While B3rutus is supposed tobe the "noblest Roman of them a!,""James Finnegan seems much more like anaverage American than a noble Roman,not only in his appearance, but also in hisun fortunate tendency to lapse into whatsounds very much like American slang.

Worse still, the point- of the play- thatB~rutus becomes like the mzan he murders

- is obscured by the directing of Camer-on-Webb. The same director who set Ro-*neo and Juliet in Northern Ireland makesa bad editing decision in the scene whereBrutus m ost obviously acts as vain andegoistical as Caesar- Act 4, scene 3, inwhich Brutus argues with Cassius aboutmoney. This is also the scene in whichShakespeare seems to have made a mis-

take: after the argument ends, Brutus re-veais that his wife, Portia, is dead andthen, 30 lines later, Brutus appears not toknow that she is dead when the 'news' isrevealed to him by someone else.

Normally, the director will cut one ofthese two bits of dialogue, and, themati-cally, it is best if the first one is cut. ThenBrutus does not know that his wife is deadduring the argument and he has no justifi-cation for his "out of character" egotismother than the tragic irony that he is be-coming like the man he assassinated - Ju-

lius Caesar.Cameron-Webb imprudently cut the sec-

ond dialogue rather than the first. Evenworse, he had Brutus rave and rant duringthe argument. The result is a Brutus actingless like a tragically noble Roman - whounleashes his own evil spirit when he killsCaesar - than an average man in a badmood because of his wife's recent suicide.

Despite the problems with Brutus, andother smaller problems such as remarkablyclean blood-stained daggers and noisycrowds that drown out the beginning of

famous speeches, the performance is pass-able.

Julius Caesar is one of Shakespeare'smost entertaining plays, and the roles ofCaesar, Cassius, and Brutus are surprising-ly well-su-ited to wooden actors, particular-ly Brutus, who coldly decides to murderhis best friend. Yet there is no real excusefOr the Boston Shakespeare Company, andthey will never be a good acting troupeuntil they can muster up a cast as good asMIT's own Shakespeare Ensemble.

If there has been an album in recenttimes that proves simplicity is the key togood rock, The Call's Modern Romans isit. This band doesn't fool around; its musicis stark and sharp-edged. -* *

Modern Romans, the Call's second re-lease, is a concept album in which theUnited States is compared to ancientRome. The lyrics, sharply critical of pre-sent society, are a real asset, at times rein-forcing the comparison.

The strength of Modern Romans is dueto singer/songwriter/producer MichaelBeen, whose impressive emotional voicecovers the range from disgust to anger tosarcasm. Been has an uncommonly dis-tinctive, well-controlled voice, at times notunlike that of the Talking Heads' DavidByrne. In addition, he doesn't fall into thetrap of screaming to show emotion, as doso many hard rock singers.

All of the songs have a strong, dance-able beat, with melodies that are impres-sive in their simplicity. The fast songs arevery energetic, while the several interleaved

Reagan also proposed a $295million increase in the budget forthe Pell Grant Program, althoughthe administration raised the ex-pected- level of student contribu-tion. Students are expected underthe proposed changes to contrib-ute a minimum of 40 percent ofthe cost of attendance, with aminimum contribution of $800.

Student Loan Program will becut by $900 millions although thenumber of recipients will increaseby an estimated 300,000 and theaverage loan will increase from$2222 to $2454, the proposalstates.

Students are not required un-der current guidelines to demon-strate financial need if their par-ents' total annual income is less,than $30,000.-Under the pro-posed budget all students apply-ing for Guaranteed StudentIoans would have to show finan-cial need under the proposedguidelines.

hibits, and NASA provided manyof the films and videotapes,"Diamandis continued.

Professor Laurence R. Young'57, director of the Man-VehicleLaboratory, "was very helpful inscheduling the astronauts' ap-pearance," Diamandis said.

"About five months ago, Icalled together the heads of theBoston area pro-space groupsand presented the idea of a groupproject, namely Spacefair," hesaid. "The idea behind Spacefairwas to educate the Boston areastudents about the benefits of anactive space program."

Students for the Explorationand Development of Space start-ed at M I T in 1980, according toDiamandis. "A sister chapter was-next founded at Princeton a fewmonths afterward," he said.

"We next had some lettersprinted in Omni, Astronomy, andAnalog which invited students to.begin chapters at other universi-ties," he added. "Today we havechapters in over 25 universitiesand 6 countries, with about 1800members."

The group plans to attend theJune 9 launch of Space Shuttle 7,he said.

MIT Man-Vehicle Laboratory forthe Space Lab mission describedlast week their project, as part ofSpacefair .'83 held at M IT'sKresge Auditorium and at fourother colleges.

The astronauts - includingByron K. Lichtenberg of theMIT Center for Space Research

- will "conduct experiments onvarious scientific fields and at-tempt to prove the usefulness ofdoing science and manufacturingin space," explained Peter H.Diamandis '83, national chair-man of Students for the Explora-tion and Development Of Space.

The National Aeronautics andSpace Administration and theEuropean Space Agency willsponsor Space Lab 1, scheduledto be launched Sept. 30 on SpaceShuttle 9, Diamandis said.

Ulf Merbold and Wubbo Ock-els of the European Space Agen-cy, Michael Lampton of Univer-sity of California at Berkeley,Robert Parker, and Owen Gariotwill join Lichtenberg in the mis-sion. John Young, commander ofthe first shuttle mission, willcommand the September launch,Diamandis said.

By Jim Van DuasenThe varsity lightweight crew

team rowed to a 16-second Gei-ger Cup victorv over Cornell andColunibia on the Charles RiverSaturday. MIT, racing in itsnewly-named shell - the Henley'54, '55 - took control fromstroke one and continued tomove away from tile other crewsall the way up the 2000-maetercourse."

The team of Mike Cafferty '83(bow), Dave Payne '83 (2), Randy

Schweickart '83 (3), Cliff Olsen'83 (4), Kim Marvin '85 (5), JayKeith '83 (6), Mark Schaeffer '83(7), Tom Rucker '83 (stroke), andSteve Kim '83 (coxswain) cameoff the line at 42 beats per min-ute and then took two power tens(counted strokes designed to co-ordinate the rowers) to settle thestroke rate to a 37. By 500 me-ters, Cornell and Columbia weredown by open water.

MIT made its planned move atthe 1000-meter mark with a pow-

er twenty, and by the 20th stroke,the race essentially had become acontest between the visitors forsecond place. Tech's goal, howev-er, was to open up the widestpossible margin of victoryv, so thecadence remained at an intense36.

The Engineers began theirsprint with 400 meters to go andbrought the boat home with awirining time of 6:22.2. Cornellcame in at 6:38.4, squeaking pastColumbia (6:38.6) in the last 50meters.

The victory capped a successfullday for the lightweights, as boththe junior varsity and third varsi-ty boats handily won their races.A surprisingly tough Cornellcrew, however, won the freshmanevent, followed by Columbia andMIT T

The varsity and JV squads arenow 4-1 and have two more racesbefore the Ea stern Sprints onMay 15. A win at the Sprints willsend the team to England tocompete in the Royal Henley Re-gatta, the olqest and most presti-gious rowing event in the wcrld.MIT won the Henley in 1954 andrepeated in 1955. At the rate the1983 lightweights are moving, wemay find that the new varsityshell has yet to be completelynamed.

called a large and inconsistentstrike zone all game long), Carlbonneau's pitching (often lowand slow) kept MIT off balance.Many MIT batters had to go for0-2 and 1-2 pitches which werenot good but were too close totake. Three of Carbonneau's fourstrikeouts were on called thirdstrikes.

MIT's best threats were in thefifth and sixth, when it put tworunners on in each inning. Ray-mond and Grace Saccardo '86walked to lead off the fifth. butthe next three Tech batters wereeasy outs. In the sixth, Lou Jan-dura '84 and Terry Felts '84 wereleft standing.

The seventh inning. told thestory of the game. M IT's Kellywas safe on a grounder thatshortstop Newton let rollthrough her legs. On the nextplay, however, Newton made upfor her mistake by making a div-

ing stop of a grounder off the batof Christy Bellinger '84 and get-ting the force on Kelly for thesecond out. Thompson wentdown swinging to end the game.

Emmanuel defeated Regis inten innings 5-4 in the other semi-final game. Fitchburg won thechampionship game, beating Em-manuel 5-3.

Fitchburg 5, MIT 0

By Eric R. FlemingWhat began as a bright, beau-

tiful Friday ended in disappoint-m~ent as the women's softballteam lost in the first round of theMassachusetts AIAW Class Ctournament. The Falcons ofFitchburg State blanked MIT 5-0en route to winning their first-ever championship.

Defense and hitting, two as-pects of the game which led JeanHeiney's team to the tourney, dis-appeared at crucial points duringthe contest. MtIT could musteronly two hits off the pitching ofFalcon co-captain Jane Carbon-neau, while the defense suffered afatal lapse in the middle innings,enabling Fitchburg to put thegame away. Tech settled downlate in the game and was flawlessin the field, but by then the dam-age had been done. Meanwhile,Fitchburg played well the entiregame, which made the difference.

The Falcons broke out to a 1-0lead in top of the second. MarieSmith led off with a soft fly toright that skidded by rightfielderJeannie Raymond '84 for a triple.Sharon Cox then hit a grounderto third. Stacy Thompson '86checked Smith, but threw errant-ly to first base, allowing Smith toscore. Cox eventually made it tothird, but Carbonneau bouncedto short to end the rally.

Fitchburg upped its lead to 3-0in the third afte4- two were out. Atri ple by Clare Conner and adouble by Smith were the keyblows in that rally. Both extra-base hits were to right field; al-though the Fitchburg hitters-werenot able to~ pull the ball on MITpitcher Cindy Robinson '84, theystill managed to hit the ball hardto the gaps in right.

The fourth inning broke MIT'sspirit and clinched the game forthe visitors. With one out, CareyNewton hit a liner right at Ray-mond. The shot skipped off therightfielder's glove and rolled allthe way to the fence as Newtonwent to third. Carbonnleau thenbunted. Firstbaseman Joyce Kelly'83 fielded it cleanly, but herthrow went wide of the bag andof Raymond, whoe was backingup the play. Newton scored ea'si-ly, and by the time the ball wasrelayed to the infield, Carbon-neau came -home with Fitchburg'sfifth run.

After that mini-dis~aster, theEngineers played the kind of ballwhich put them in the tourney.Robinson became her usualdominating self, retiring the lastII batters she faced, picking upfOL~r strikeouts in the process.

The Falcons, 'however, weremore dominating. With a littlehelp fromt the plate umpire (who
