The Department of the Army has announced a new program of two and four year scholarships for students in the Reserve Offi­cer Training Corps. The program has been instituted in view of tbe Increased demand on the R.O.T.C. program for new ofiicers and serves <as an indication of the Importance of the program to the Army.

The scholarships provide for run tuition, books, and laboratory lees plus fifty dollars a month for participating students. Th e monthly alottments are year round except !or the slx week period when the cadet Is in sum­mer camp. At this time the stu­dent receives the standard $120.60 for the duration of camp,

The Army has created 400 four Year scholarships and 600 two Year grants. The two year grants are given to current sophomores In the Basic R.O.T .C. program. The four year recipient .nray at­tend any school that has the Ar­my program and must go for a Baccalaureate degree.

Worcester Tech has been alot­led three two-year grants. A acholarshlp board is deciding on six candidates for a preferential list from thirty-eight applicants, on Wednesday, April 28. The baard includes Captain Young, Colonel Pierce, Dean Van de Vlsse, Professor van Alstyne, and Cadet Colonel Czarnelckl.

In 1960, he was nominated for secretary of state but was unsuc­cessful. However Senator Salton­stalJ and Governor Volpe were the only Republicans to top his tally. He began his career as Q

public servant in 1961 when he became chairman of the Boston Finance Commission. He became well known through his investiga­tion of corruption, graft, and con­flict of interest by public officials.

In 1962, he won a stunning and dramatic vletory In hls flnJt state­w ide eleclion to became the thlrty-fi!tb Atty. General for the state, being the only Republican to survive a Democratic sweep.

Since Ibis re-election last N~ vember, he has been considered a national political figure and Is regarded as a spokesman of Re­publican views. Now 45, he is being mentioned, In speculative news stories, as a potential can­didate for the G.O.P. vice-presi­dential nomination.

New Library Is Started

Ground was broken last Thurs­day for the new ,George C. Gor­don Library as a crowd of nearly two hundred students, faculty members and friends looked on. President Harry P . Storke offi­ciated over the ceremonies and offered introductory and closinl remarks.

Mr. Fred L. Ball, Director of the Park Drop Forge Company and Mr. George Gund, chairman of the board of the Cleveland Trust Company, both friends and business tassociates of George Gor­don, commented on Mr. Gordon's character as an Industrialist and as a man.

Professor Albert G. Anderson Jr., head librarian, spoke on the "Significance of the New Li­brary". In his talk he outlined the necessity of the bullding and the essential services which it will provide to the Institute.

The actual groundbreaking took place amidst the grinding and buzzing of heavy equipment and bulldosers which had unofficially begun to clear ground for the construction a week earlier .

Archibald Macleish Pulitzer Prize Poet Speaks At Assembly

'Mr. Archibald Maclelsh

To celebrate its participation in the Centennial Year, the English Department presented the famed poet, playwright, teacher and pub· lie servant Archibald MacLeish. Mr. MacLeish spoke at the regular assembly period at eleven o'clock on Thursday, April 29, 1965 in Al­den Memorial Auditorium.

One of the finest writers that America has produced, a man whose works rank high among the achievements of American authors in the twentieth century, Mr. Mac­Leish's most recent literary distinc· tion was his winning the Pulitzer Prize in Drama in 1959 for his highly successful and popular work

for the stage "J. B.: a Play in Verse." This play, philosophically based on the Story of Job in the Bible, is an allegory of a modern man who has the courage to per­severe through a long-drawn ordeal of personal calamity and heartache which would make survival dif!i· cut for most men.

Being a Pulitter Prize winner was not a new experience for Mr. MacLeish. In a different category twenty-seven years before, 1n 1932, he had won the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry for "Conquistadors" an epic poem which recreates the story of the attempted conquest of the Az· tees by the Spaniards under Cortes in Mexico in the early sixteenth centur y. MacLeish won the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry a second time in 1953 for an anthology of his verse, "Collected Poems: 1917-1952." That same year, he also won the Bollln­gen Prize in Poetry and the Na· tiona! Book Award in Poetry.

1\lr. MacLelsh has been a proli­fic poet all his life. Even while he was a student at Harvard Law School, to which he had gone after graduating from Yale in 1915, two volumes of his verse were pub­usned. His law school study was interrupted by the First World War in which he served in France, ris· ing from the rank of enlisted pri­vate to that of Artillery Captain before he was discharged. For his

6:00 PM. buffets will be served in the various fraternity houses. Because of the very poor turn­outs in the last couple of years, a buffet will not be held in Mor­gan Hall, ln the evening.

To end the evening, in spectacu­lar fashion , The ffighwaymen, will be presented by the school. Their performance begins at 8:00 P.M. and, weather permitting, will be held on the football field. In case of fo ul weather, the concert will be held at the Worcester Memorial Auditorium. Tickets will be given free to Tech stu­dents and parents who wish to attend, and also to members of other schools In the area. This is an all time first at Worcester Tech and it Is hoped that many will take advantage of this and other centermlal affairs.

twelve months in France, the French government made him a commander in the French Legion of Honor.

After the war, MacLeish com­pleted his work at the Harvard Law School from which he gradu­ated in 1919. He practiced law in Boston for three years. But a ca­reer as a lawyer soon proved too restrictlve for this natural born poet and scholar. Thus, in 1923, he took his young family to Paris to devote his time to study and to creative writing. During the five years he was in Paris, he wrote five volumes of verse.

In 1928 Macl.eish returned to the United States. Never one to sepa­rate himself from the mainstream of We around him, from 1929 to 1937 he was on the staff of "For· tune" magazine. There his research for his work and his sensitive per­ception of conditions in his society and in the world produced a vital social and political awareness which is reflected in his creative work of this period. Some of his themes, which were published in a number of volumes of prose, were satires on the irresponsible atti­tudes of men in public life and in business, and warnings t.o his fel­low Americans of the dangers of fascism and the possibility of dic-

the memories of this weekend have dimmed, the Tech News staff would like to offer its congratulations for a job well done to those who worked so diligently to make it a success. J. P. Chairman Don Foley and hjs committee can now breathe a well-deserved sigh of relief.

The Nautical Club also deserves special notice for its part in organizing the enjoyable Saturday race at Lake Quinsiga­mond. Hopefully this will become a traditional event of J . P. Weekend.

SPEAK UP-I Can't Hear Youl This world of ours Is a fascin­

ating place. The more I do, the more I see, and the more I listen, the more I find that we have be­fore us an unending expanse of experiences just waiting to be taken. Life need not be hum­drum, and indeed can be an end­less series of adventures and discoveries I! only the mind Is kept open to the chances afford­ed · it every day.

This is an exciting proposition, but what is even more exciting Is that lhls vista of llle 1s not unique-is not the same fCYr everyone. Each one o£ us sees liCe in a diHerent way . We each see di!lerent things as being in­teresting and beautilul.

What disturbs me is that too many of us are contented to go through life without sharing our ideas----living in a mental vacuum without the least bit of philosophi­cal stimulation. This sharing of ideas is what makes other people interesting, what justifies joining a Fraternity, and what makes most of us "social animals".

It "bugs" me that on this cam­pus most o1 the original thinking stays within either the thinkers mind or hls Fraternity and never sees the light of day. To an out­sider we must look like a very sedate and sell satisfied group of nebishes, for with very few exceptions we stay Isolated from the world in the security of an­nonlmity which is so graciously given those who pursue a purely scholastic development.

In recent columns I have related incidents of students' ingenuity in the field of bomb making. These previous ef­forts were more or less harmless, but this idea of bomb mak­ing can be carried to dangerous extremes as Dlinois Insti­tute of Technology has found out.

l i II

In the past two Issues of the "Tech News'' Messrs. Mehta and Liu had the pleasure of "Letting off steam" at the expense of thls column. Hence, I do not hesitate to stretch the subject further. I dare say I disagree with both of .my predecessors, as Mr. Mehta's views were a mere melancholy outburst followed by Mr. Uu's valiant attempt to show indlgna­titJn and regain face. Mr. Mehta's fallacies were diligently pointed out by Mr. Liu, but Mr. L!u com­mitted the unforgivable sin of attempting to explain the "Ameri­can superiority'' by Implying at a possible "foreign visitors' in­feriority." At this point, both gentlemen should be reminded that the argument is concerned with nationalism and ethnocen­triclsm.

An unknown person planted a smoke bomb in a lecture desk in Seigal Hall at that school which consisted of an alarm clock used as a timjng device to activate a mechanism which 1

brought two electrical wires together that started chemicals smoking and eventually burning. The bomb interrupted a math class and after its discovery, the resulting fire was ex­tinguished by two students.

The instructor, disturbed by the incident, explained to the class the possible consequences if the fire had not been

In my opinion, a friendship tran­scends all boundaries of nation­ality, race, creed, and religion. To achieve this, m'an should be, and must be, an international. It is only under thJq condition that frlendllhip between two different nationals can breed. Then who is tnis International? I leave the question open to the reader.

All students, foreign and Ameri­can, are at W.P.I. for the express purpose of studying engineering ( and science). If the end desired was intercultural exchange, then all of ou.r foreign students would be better off at some liberal arts college. Thlis does not necessarily mean that lnte.r-cultural exchanoge does not take place or is frowned upon at W.P.I., but that if we are here to perform a certain function, then let us do so and let the incidentals take care of them-selves.

A final piece of advise to both Americans .and foreign v:isitors; don't look upon eac'h other as representatives of different na­tions, but as fellow human beings living in a misunderstood, war­torn world.

College in Nashua, New Hampshire reports that The Optimist came out on time even though; "The editor's bed burned ... Somebody forgot to set up a room for Friday's staff meeting. The list of reporters' assignments got lost. 'The business man­ager was in two successive auto wrecks. It could have been worse though, because the week before, the press broke down!"

Along the line of college surveys, Mervin B. Freedman of Syracuse University bas compiled these interesting facts about the sex standards of college students. His detailed study of 49 females from an eastern women's college over a period 1lf four years and the testing of several thousand students re­vealed these facts:

Three fourths or more of America's unmarried college women are virgins.

Premarital intercourse among college women is usually restricted to their future husbands.

PromiscuHy is probably confined to a very small per· centage of college women-probably a lower proportion thaD high school girls.

If any of you think your present schec;tule is rough, com· pare it with this schedule of a girl at the State College at Bridgewater.

On an average day she is up at seven, at school from eight-thlrty to three, then to work from four P .M. until one A.M., home to study from two until five, and at last-sleep from five to seven."

This Junior elementary major was asked what she did in her spare time and replied that she "used to roller skate three or four nights a week, but had to cut it down just to Sunday nights." She wants to join ROTC as oa Wave to travel around before settling down to teach. She will probably find teaching boring, that is, if she lasts that long.

Commander Talka By MALIN SWOP E (The Dally Iowan)

Coll~late Press Service

(CPS)- The national comman­der of the American Legion has said that the recent student de­monstrations on the University of California's Berkeley campus indicate a need for a ban on Communists speaking at educa­tional institutions.

Tbe commander, Donald J ohn­son, told 250 Legionnaires in Lodi, California that the Berkeley de­monstrations were "an example o! defiance of our laws and abu­sive actions against our peace ol.­ficers."

Pollee arrested 801 demonstra­tors of Dec. 2, following a sit-In In the university's administra­tion building as a climax to months of student protests a­gainst the school's regulations governing political activity on campus.

" I think the recent events at the University of Callfornla are new evidence of the need for the (Communist speaker) ban," John­son said.

speak before high school, college, and university groups, he said.

"The Coanmunlsts consider their e ffort worthwh.ile if they convert but a single student to their cause," he said "It was Gus Hall himself, the general secretary of the American Communist Party, who said the youth program of the party is so important that he would go anywhere to meet with young students even If but one student were met."

Johnson said he was confident that the vast majority of Ameri­can youth was not gullible enough to swallow Communist ideology. "Yet," he said, "we know there are some who are susceptible, and this was proved at Berkeley.

"Some 800 out of a total of 27,500 students doesn't seem like much, but it is too many."

The American Legion opposes the appearance of "spokesmen for the Communist conspiracy on tax­supported properties," Johnson said, " t hus using these facili­ties for sounding boards for Com­munist propaganda."

Johnson said the American tax­payer has no legal or moral obli­gation to aid and abet a cause which, "Is dedicated to the over­throw of our system of govern­ment and the destruction of the American way of life.

"There are all too many other forums and facilities a vailable to Red-oriented speakers," he said.

hands or by acting lawlessly," he said.

"Recent stories about pollee brutality on the Berkeley campus have been used as a rallying point by people who advocate civil d is­obedience," Johnson continued. "Those lnvolved in the demon­strations showed absolu tely no re­spect for the law, but at the same time demanded full sanction of their actions."

Johnson said that although he did not visit t he Berkeley camp­us, he had talked with many of the university's faculty members, students, and administrators.

"The students I talked to had very little reaction of any sort to the demonstrations," Johnson said. "They seemed far more con­cerned about their studies, but tney were very disturbed by the fact that many of their classes had been canceled during the de­monstrations."

Many classes were canceled when the university faculty held an "emergency" meeting to decide what Its stand would be toward the Free Speech Movement

" I found that the recent gradu­ates of the university were the ones who were most disturbed by the events on the Berkeley- camp­us," Johnson said. "These young people are just entering the pro­fessional world, where good Images are so important, and they are realizing it for the tlrst time In their lives."

STICKMEN LOSE

IN HARD FOUGHT OPENING MATCHES

Middlebury

Last Saturday, April 17, the Worcester Tech lacrosse team played its first game, of what appears to be a long 9 game sched­ule. Traveling to distant Middle­bury, they meet a big and power­ful team that soundly demolished them 13-3. The Middlebury of­fense, led by potential All-Ameri­can Fred Beams, stung the Tech defense with Its hard shooting. Beams, an outstanding half back on the football team each fall, turns his attention to lacrosse d ur­ing the spring. Last Saturday he completely riddled all defenders with h is magician like stickwork and managed to put 5 goals by freshman goalie Steve Holub.

Tech scored first, when Rollle Bouchard fired an unassisted goal from 30 feet. Thlngs looked good for the hiUtoppers but once Middlebury settled down their offense they dominated play for the rest of the game. Relying pri­marily on their .middies they shot as often and as hard as they could. Mike Portanova accounted for the other two Tech goals.

Team suffered Its thlrd defeat last Saturday as they were bat­tered by the visiting stlckmen of Trinity, 12-1.

Due to a mix-up in the story assignments for the past issue, there was no Spring Preview of this year's track team. But, thls did not seem to bother Merle Norcrosses' trackmen, as they look to have another fine season.

With such veterans as Paul Guisti and Bob Hawes and frosh stars Cary Palutis and Kevin Sullivan leading the way, the WPI track team bas maintained a 1-2 record. In doing so, they have lost two tough meets-to Coast Guard by 16 points, and to Bates, last years' New England champs.

Thus, with their two toughest meets behind them, it looks as though the Tech trackmen will have clear sailing for the rest of the season.

I. F- SPORTS With the I.F . track meet taking place this week and the

I.F. softball league commencing its season this week, it would be well to look at the standings for the I.F. Sports Trophy as the various fraternities enter the home stretch of this annual competition.

Current standings show that Sig Ep is on top with 190 points. A E Pi is second with 184 points and the Kap is third with 179. After, that it is the Shield and Teke tied for fourth place with 171 points. Thus, it is conceivable that any of these teams could win the sports trophy since there are two "major" sports, worth 46 points for first place, 44 for second, etc., which s till remain to be decided.

The Kap should be strong in the sprints and the field events and Sig Ep will be strong in the distance events in the track meet. I.F. Softball-well, who knows??

So it looks like a tight contest from here on in for the sports trophy.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Bob Hawes, this year's track co-captain, is this week's

athlete of the week. Bob has lettered in track ever since his freshman year. He also has competed on the cross country team for four years.

Bob competed in four events this past Saturday against Coast Guard. He won the 440 and the 220 yd. dashes. He placed third in the intermediate hurdles and anchored an un· successful relay team.

It is desire such as this which has made Bob a top com· petitor for aU his four years at Tech. It is no wonder that the track team is doing so well with leadership such as this.

spite difficulty in working the ball around the cage, Tech was still able to muster a few real scoring threats. However, all but one of these shots were stopped cold by the excellent Trinity goalie. Techs defense showed consider­able Improvement, however. A few lax moments were all Trinity needed to fire In 12 goals.

Tech started the game very poorly. A complete lack of defen­sive play gave Trinity 5 goals on 5 shots In the first 5 minutes o! the game. Then, after a time out and a goalie change, things start­ed to look better. The defense

Trinity did not stop pushln& and they managed to score twice more In the fourth period before Tech could find the cage. Then crease attackmen Bob Klauber grabbed a loose ball in mid-air and fired It Into lhe nets for Tech's only score. Trinity scored once more before the merciful final gun sounded.

TRACKMEN WIN FIRST, LOSE TO BATES AND CGA

Middlebury On April 17, there was no sun

in Middlebury, Vt., to warm the damp bone-chilling cold. The ther­mometers registered in the low 40's. Despite this, the Worcester Tech track team scored as over· whelm ing 91 to 49 win over host Middlebury College.

helped them to break the tie score with the last two events. Thelr broad jumpers outleaped the Tech bounders 8 points to 1; and their stronger quarter-miters bested the Tech foursome by a few yards as anchor-man Hawes could not re· gain enough of Tech's lost yardage.

As far a s individual performanc· es go, the only records set might have been for the worst marks ever. The cold, wind and loose track all contr ibuted to this damp­ing eifect .

The best efforts of the day were made by freshman Cary Palulis and Bob Plelnas. Cary won both the mile and two mile in the style that made him a cross country rec­ord holder. Bob scored wins in hop, step and jumps, and the broad jump, then placed in the high jump. Other individual winners in· c1uded Kevin Sullivan in the high jump, Paul Guisti in the shot put, Bob Hawes in the 440 yard dash, Desha Beamer in the Pole Vault, A1 Giannotti in the discuss, and Bud West and Ron Gordon in the hurdle events.

Tech's other first place winners were frosh high jumper Kevin Sullivan who leaped 6' 2" to easily beat other high bar contenders. Bare-footed Deshia Beamer contin· ued to sh,ow his prowess in the pole vault as he soared 12' 6". Captain P11ul C:h111ti heaved the &hot 43' 1 Y•"

Middlebury bad one man, Glen Gloverston who might be a good prospect for the decathalon. A jun­ior, he won the 100 yard dash, the 880 yard run, took second in the discus and came back to run a very fast leadoff leg in the mile relay.

BATES Last Wednesday, April 21, the

Engineer trackme n had their shin· ing record marred by the battling Bales' Bobcats, who downed the Techmen 76-64. The thinclad Bates' athletes, last year's Eastern Track and Field Champions, were not given an easy victory by the de· termined Engineers, who held the Bobcats to a 63-63 tie before the final two events, the triple jump and the mile relay. Bates outscored the Boynton Hlllers 13·1 in these last two contests to get the win.

Among lhe outstanding Tech competitors of the day were double winners captain Bob Hawes and frosh distance runner Cary Palulis. The efforts or these and other Tech athletes helped spark a good team eifort that held the Bates score close to Tech's. Palulis shone when he handily won the mile and two· mile in his light, graceful gate, turning in times of 4:44 and 10:22 respectivelY. Senior captain Hawes pounded out a splendid 51.3 sec­ond quar ter-mile to win his favor· ite event, and then turned to the shorter distance winning the 220 yard dash in 23.8 seconds.

The Engineers also had other double place winners in sprintman Ray Jacques who took second place in the c~ntury dash and third in the 220, and in frosb jumper Bob Pleines, who garnered a second in lh<' high jump and third in the triple jump. These four men gave the Boynton Hillers a good 28 pomts in the battle against the Ea1>tern's champs.

r ech took five otbe.r first places to g ive them an advantage of 9-6 in that department. However, the dt>ot h of the Bobcats, with which th••y took many seconds and thirds,

for five points; while Al Giannotti hurled the discus, cropping the grass 122' 9'h" out. Frosh Jim Ras­lavsky whi.zzed the javelin 157' 1 V.." to take that event. Seven other En· gineers took points; namely, Car· men Della Vecchia, second in the shot put; Wayne Pierce, second in the quarter; Bud West, second in the 120 yard hurdles; John Turick, third in the half-mile; Paul Peter­son, third in the discuss and Bob Larson, third in the javelin.

Coast Guard On the Saturday afternoon of

the Junior Prom Weekend, the Worcester Tech track team forces surfered their second defeat. Ap­parently the dates didn't provide enough inspiration as Coast Guard squeaked by to a 78-62 victory.

Despite the windy and chilly weather, some of the performances were truly outstanding. The first of these was in the high jump. Two years ago, senior co-captain Jack McGrath leaped 6' 61/4'' to set a rec­ord that many thought would never be broken. Yet Kevin Sullivan cleared 6' 4" . Then the bar was raised to 6' 6th'' which he narrow­ly missed, likewise missing his chance for the record.

Co-captain Bob Hawes competed

in four events. First he strode to an easy victory in the 440 yard dash. Later in the meet he posted a win in the 220 yard dash. In the next event he took third in the intermediate hurdles and finally anchored an unsuccessful relay at­tempt.

Freshman Cary Palulis scored a double win in the mile and two mile. The mile time was 4:35 and the two mile was 10:03. Both are very fast for early in the season.

Ray Jacques, after a poor show­ing in the first two meets, won the 100 daah in a very fut time

o! 10.1 seconds. The only other Tech winner was Paul Guisti in the shot put.

It was a very disappointing meet otherwise. Hurdler Bud West re· injured h is knee, thus sidelining him. A serious lack of depth was displayed in many events especially in the javelin, broad jump, and the hop step and jump. In these as well as in others, Coast Guard scored very well, showing great depth.
