Since 1881" By Joe Kashi Professor Robert Wood, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under Lyndon Johnson, reflected upon the many problems he faced during his three-year' .tenure in Washington Tuesday night in the Sala. In his first public speech since returning to head 'the Political Science Department and the MIT-Harvard Joint Center for Urban Studies, Professor Wood detailed the main elements involved in training a new type of planner: the "urban professional." He-- emphasized that the prerequisites for effective training of the urban professional were projections into the future, rather than merely reflections of past crises. Change without fear In order for the United States to grow effectively and be assured of an adequate supply of well-trained urban workers and' planners, Wood cautioned, the U.S. must not be afraid of changing patterns and courses of action. Unless the American public accepts change without fear,. he continued, it cannot remain relevant and will be unable to implement changes which will be necessary to.ultimately, raise the quality of urbanlife.- In addition to- excellent specialized training, an adequate number of employment opportunities is necessary to attract Astronaut James A. Lovell, Jr., navigator of the Apollo 8 flight to the moon, greeted the MIT community yesterday in a series of addresses and meetings. Lovell first spoke to Instrumentation Laboratory personnel in, Kresge, congratulating them on the performance of the Apollo navigation and guidance systems which were developed at the Lab. He then joined Christopher C. Kraft, NASA's director of flight operations at the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, and Robert Gardiner, head of the Guidance and Navigation Division at the Center, in a press conference in the McCormick lounge. Lovell described the navigation system as a "man-machine integrated loop," and stated that man was a necessary part of the type of space flights now being undertaken. A convocation in Kresge followed the press conference. President Johnson introduced Dr. C. S. Draper, Head of the Instrumentation Lab, and David Hoag, Associate Director of the Lab, who explained the Laboratory's, involvement with Apollo and described the navigation, guidance, and control. systems which worked so well. Draper noted that taking technological chances is nAeda'y to a venture of this sort, but-. "if you don't make it, nobody's going oo give-you a damn bit of sympathy."

Engineering and Science at IBM

"Youre treatedlike a professionalright from the start'"The attitude here is, if you're good enough to behired, you're good enough to be turned loose on aproject," says Don Feistamel.

Don earned a B.S.E.E. in 1965. Today, he's anAssociate Engineer in systems design and evalua-tion at IBM. Most of his work consists of determin-ing modifications needed to make complexdata processing systems fit the specializedrequirements of IBM customers.

Depending on the size of the project, Donworks individually or in a small team. He'snow working with three other engineers onpart of an air traffic control system that willprocess radar information by computer.Says Don: "There are only general guide-lines. The assignment is simply to comeup with the optimum system."

Set your own paceRecently he wrote a simulation program thatenables-an-IBM computer to predict-the per- -formance of a -data processing system- that willtrack satellites. He handled that project him-selt "Nobody stands over my shoulder," Donsays. "I pretty much set my own pace."

Don's informal working environment is typi-cal of Engineering and Science at IBM. Nomatter how large the project, we break itdown into units small enough to be handledby one person or a few people.

Don sees a lot of possibilities for the future.He says, "My job requires that I keep up todate with all the latest IBM equipment andsystems programs. With that broad an Outlook,I can move into almost any technical area atIBM-development, manufacturing, producttest, space and defense projects, programmingor marketing."

At the beginning of the MIT Con-cert Band's annual intersession tour,personnel assistant Mike Lynch com-mented, 'This is a fractured group-noone seems to' know one another."Within a few days, however, throughthe tyrannical hand of Mother Nature,the 85 members of the band-undervarying degrees of stress-came to knoweach other all too well.

After a tour highlighted by concertsin Philadelphis, Richmond, Washington(where 9 Tech jaywalkers were able tooutwit a cop who had never heard ofMIT ), and a memorable Saturday nightparty (with some unexpected visitors),the bleary-eyed musicians set out forhome at 10:00AM Sunday.

Early in the afternoon, the snowbegan falling on the New JerseyTurpike. As the roads became increa-singly treacherous and. dark, the twoWilson buses carrying the band becamesepaated. As the first bus neared NewYork, several band members venturedout into natures white fury to push offthe road one of the many cars thatwere immobile and blocking traffic,and the car's occupants were admittedto the bus. As the George WashingtonBridge loomed ahead hopelesslyclogged, the bus driver, Maurice Evans,astutely. decided to take the Hacken-sack, N. J., exit and the 40-odd musi-cians-included several female mem-

bers-were fortunate to gain accomoda-tions at the local Holiday Inn.

Long, Hard RoadThe other bus, however, did not

enjoy such a comfortable night-the dri-ver was possessed with a mania to gethome. Aboard the bus for most of the31 straight hours, they endured monu-mental traffic jams and the necessity ofhaving to shovel themselves as well asmany cars out of snow drifts on severaloccasions, and they reached MITaround 5:00PM Monday.

Meanwhile, 'back at the HolidayInn, Monday morning found the roadsthrough and out of New York City stillimpassable. On Tuesday, the band'spresident, Barbara Padgett, used hermaternal instincts to decide the suretyof the Institute's emergency funds wasa better bet than venturing out underuncertain road conditions, and so thishalf of the band remained comfortablyensconced in the Holiday Inn until6:OOAM Wednesday when theyembarked on an uneventful return tripto the white and wonderful Institute.

The entire snowbound groupobtained adjacent rooms in the motel.Not only was an unprecedented senseof comraderie among all achieved, butsome Techmen reacted to the stress ofthe situation by forsaking all traditionand taking an unabashedlyfond interestin the coeds in the grop. Some groups

Wednesday or Sunday evening in our office(W20-483) and talk tow an editor about joining oneof our staffs. We cannot be the kindof paper wewould like to be unless you, the reader, help us out.

Youth FareRecently a Civil Aeronautics Board examiner

recommended that youth fares be dropped bydomestic airlines on the grounds that they discri-minate against older passengers. If this principlewere to be extended to its logical conclusion, theresults would be absurd. All airlines and railraodswould have to drop family fares, so as not todiscriminate against bacheiors. No business couldoffer a local sale on one of its products; that wouldbe discrimination against those who live elsewhere.Other possible ramifications abound.

Unless the full CAB-sees fit to reverse thisdecision, it will become effective thirty days after.the submission of the examiner's report. Now is thetime to write your local congressman, senators, andthe CAB at 1825 Connecticut Avenue, N.W., Wash-ington, D. C., 20009.

Cost of LivingWe were disappointed to see that the charges for

dormitory rent and commons will increase nextyear, but in light of their stability over the past fiveyears despite generally rising prices, this can hardlybe viewed as a surprise. Insofar as the quality ofcommons is concerned, it seems to us that relativelyfew students (who could move to a house withoutrequired commons) would object to compulsorycommons if the quality were maintained. We willwatch closely during the coming term to see whe-ther the steps taken by Mr. Bishoff to improve theWest Campus commons quality are effective.

. Each student must participate tocreate a climate that will enablehim to develop his "own piece ofland." It is an affront to goodsense to assume that students willforever submit to patterns that donot serve them adequately. it isequally absurd to assume thatstudents, one step away. from theBlack ghetto, in a highlycompetitive world, are voicing ablind rejection of integration whenthey wish to set up a "family"community within the campuscommunity.

. It is useful to recall that the major-ity of immigrant family children wentto college asco6mmutimg students. Theyparticipated, little in the social andextracurricular life of the campus.Traveling on public transportation withformer high school friends, their per-sonal lives remained tied to their child-hood community throughout their col-lege years. Economics alone did notdictate this pattern. The largely pros-perous, white, Protestant milieu pf theresident college population presented athreatening and exclusionary scene'thatinhibited immigrant family childrenfrom attemptin life in the dormitoryeven when economically feasible.

That Black students. do not citesuch facts, but express their concerns -in the rhetoric of Black Power is only apopular excuse for complaint. Farmore distressing and warranting com-plaint is the poor memory of educatedadults, especially faculty and admini-strators, who ignore the facts oftheirown history-and miss the point atissue.

Science StrikeTo the Editor:

In December a graduate studentrepresentative visited my office to ex-plain that a number of MIT students,undergraduate and graduate, wereseriously concerned with the socialconsequences of research and invitedme to organize one of a series of paneldiscussions on this theme in my ownfield. I was happy to agree to arrange apanel discussion along with some onmy colleagues on the "Application ofScientific and Technical Knowledgefrom Research to World Food andNutrition Problems," my special areaand a topic on which I have recentlyprepared a detailed report tor theUnited Nations.

I learned in January, however, thatthe panels were to be organized in such

-a way that students and faculty wouldbe urged to abandon their research foran entire day in order to attend and"that the movement was being identifiedas a strike. I indicated to the studentorganizers that I would be stronglyopposed on principle to such a pro-cedure and would not participate in itin this form.

In discussing some of the reasonswhy, I explained that as far as Iknewpersons doing research in the lifesciences at MIT believe it to be for thebenefit of mankind and that, regardless

repeated my offer to arrange a panel.discussion on, the topic originally:suggested at any mutually acceptabletime outside of the regualr workinghours of the Institute and will still beglad to do-so as long as it is notarranged in association with anyresearch stoppage.

I reaffirm my own conviction thatthe issues raised are important ones tobe explored deeply and thoughtfullyby students and faulty. I believe it istrue of most of the faculty andstudents of this Department that theyhave deliberately. chosen an area ofresearch where their efforts might be oftangible and .fairly immediate benefitto mankind. We are actively workinglong hours to find ways' of applyingscience and technology for theimprovement of human health and'welfare "in'tOth 'iddtsitrialized and lessdeveloped countries through improvednutrition. Given the urgency of the.world- food crisis; perhaps a research-inwould .be more appropriate for us thana'research stoppage.

Sincerely yours,Nevin S.' Scrimshaw

Professor of Nutritionand Head of Departnent of

Nuitrition and Food SciencePass- Fail

To The EditorYour editorial of' February 11.

"Pass-Fail", raised a number. ofquestions concerning evaluation of thisprogram. Since it appears that anumber of the evaluation proceduresbeing used are not widely known, Iwould like 'to -cite some of these inreply.- Clearly, a subjectiveassessment alone of freshmen-reactionwis not sufficient. One criterion ofsuccess, which will not be operativeuntil next year, is the academicperformance of the Class of '72 insecond-year subjects, as compared withpast records. Another aspect we arewatching closely is any change occurngin the way that the furst-year subjectsthemselves are taught, such aselimninatioa of examinations, changes insection size, use of comments rathem

of source of support, are doing openresearch of their own choice. For thoseengaged in animal and human studies,as are many in this Department, itwould be highly improper and irrespon-sible, as well as a social disservice, forthem to neglect their duties. In the lifesciences, as in the physical and social-sciences, most discoveries of value andimportance for human welfare can alsobe used for contrary purposes. What isneeded is not to ban such research, butto develop national and internationalpolicies and forms of social organiza-tion and restraint which- ensure thatresearch discoveries are used construct-ively.

The concept of a work stoppagewould be unacceptable for a variety ofgood reasons to many people'sympath-etic with discussions of the objectivesand implications of research and-wouldunfairly place them in the position ofseeming not to care.

I believe it would 'be far moremeaningful for persons concernedwit hthis problem to take their time in theevenings or on weekends for theproposed discussions and panels. I

An AppealThe Tech needs your help. During volume 88 we

tried, with some success, to be more effective ininforming the MIT community and to be a construc-tive influence in reforming and improving the Insti-tute. But we have a long way to go. Most of thecriticisms which have been directed at the pape' inthe past have been to varying extents justified.

We cannot, however, do the- kind of job wewould like to do unless there is a significant influxof concerned people who would like to do some-thing relevant to make the Institute amorereason-able place. While it would be nice, experience andtalent in writing or reporting are by no means neces-sary. As our regular readers will attest, most of ourstaff learns as they go along.

Following the election of a new board of direc-tors, there are always a large number of responsiblepositions left open when their occupants are promo-ted. In the past. staff members have recruited newpeople from their living groups to work for thepaper, with the result that the staff has been neithersufficiently large nor sufficiently representative ofthe student body to do the job that must be done.

Before you say that you have too many problemsets to do, stop. You are going to have to live in asociety of issues, problems, and people, as well astechnology. Your education is only half an educa-tion if you cannot deal with issues and personalities.Those who work on the paper get an excellentgrounding in these topics and are usually among thefirst to hear of a lot of exciting things. Althoughsome spend as much ormore time on the paper ason classwork, the depth of your commitmentdepends entirely on you. Many staff members findthat if they set aside time for the paper, they canwork more effectively (out of necessity) when theystudy.

Be relevant for a change. Get in on the groundfloor of the excitement of volume 89. Drop in any

Lote t edi tor D Techthan numerical marks on quiz papers.etc. All of these developments arecoupled to the use of N/F andcomments rather than grades.

With regard to study habits, we aremonitoring lecture attendance as oneindicator of how students spend theirtime. We are also in regular contactwith dormitory and fraternity tutors,in order to get a feeling for what ishappening within the living groups.

I really cannot agree with thestatement that "almost no one wassatisfied the the PerformanceEvaluation sheets." We have sentquestionnaires and/or information let-ters to advisors, instructors, and fresh-.men themselves, all asking for specific: comments and suggestions on thisioperation, and we are quite ready to.implement any improvements as soon:, ·as they are suggested. In this sense, the "experiment" is indeed a continuouslyevolving one.

If there is one input that we doneed at this time, it would beadditional concrete suggestions as tospecific observables which could bemeasured during the course of the next3162 years, which could have a bearingon an assessment of.the program. TheCommittee members are always glad todiscuss these matters with interestedmembers of the MIT community.

Black StudentsTo the Editor:

Many of us in the white comimunitywho have a total commitment to inte-gration do not view the Black studentdesire for a degree of separation -aspermanently foreclosing the future ofintegration. Nor do we see the Blackstudent focus as a hindrance to individual academic achievement. This isthe moment, it would seem, forthoughtful people to reexamine manyfaulty premises so that colleges maydeal more justly with Black youth whoaxe now attempting to expand thoseopportunities so recently opened up tothem. -

Unlike the past, today it is the nminds of our young that constitute

THE TECH FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1969 PAGE 5

By Harvey UkerThe MIT-Wellesley Exchange Pro-

gram, Spring 1969, has gotten off to agood start this semester with nearlythree hundred students cross registeringtheir courses.

A glance at the statistics shows thatalmost twice as many Wellesley stu-dents as Techman: are taking advantageof the exchange. The overwhelming,najority of the girls registering at MITare taking humanities and Social Sci-ence courses, with the single most

popular course being 21.386, Interpre-tation and Judgement of Films, whichhas. been elected by 25 Welleslyites.More than half of the Wellesley stu-dents are taking courses in their majoror in a related field.

The breakdown by departmentsshows that there are 116 girls in Huma-nities, 56 in Social Science, and 28 inArchitecture and Planning, but a mere29 in Science and Engineering com-bined. Forty of the girls have pre-

xchangeviously participated in the program.

A final interesting statistic showsthat precisely 69 girls majoring inSocial Science are taking MIT courses.

On the other side of the ledger, aplurality of the 96 MIT students regis-tered at Wellesley are taking Humani-ties courses, wwith only thirteen elec-ting science courses. One singularly per-suasive student has been, allowed totake Mathematics at Wellesley, whiletwo others are taking Physics.

8. The ladies handing out roll cardson registration day stuck diligentlyto their instructions. One studentwho had all of the right papers butnot the signature of his advisorargued futilely for a minute to gethis roll cards. Finally he left theline, signed his advisor's name atthe bottom of his schedule,returned to the same line, andpicked up his cards.9. One of the nicest programs wesaw was given to a sophomore inchemistry. The computer assignedhim a lunch hour every day andnothing else.10. Desperate during the last snowstorm, Wellesley offered to pay itsstudents $2.75 an' hour forshoveling snow, proving that aliberal education is indeed useful.11. From the walls of The Tech'sproduction room: "There is . thepragmatic conclusion that mostCatholic families, judging from theirnow smaller families, have alreadyadopted birth control and hence theencyclical has no effect. This iswrong."12. In trying to search out thereason for the digging in the GreatCourt the other day, anunsuspecting reporter got a goodlesson in the workings of theInstitute. Starting out in theSuperintendent's Office, he was toldthat they didn't know but thePhysical' Plant ought to know.Physical Plant, in turn, replied thatthey had nothing to do with thehole and suggested theSuperintendent's Office. But theymade the fatal' mistake of armingthe reporter with a name tocontact. Back at theSuperintendent's Office, the reporterfinally got his information.13.

A breakdown by year of graduationof the enrolled students shows thatWellesley is contributing 68 seniors, 53juniors, 64 sophomores, and 12 fresh-men to the program. MIT, however,can muster no more than two fresh-men, in addition to the upperclassmen,primarily seniors who number 55.

music ...Joplin, VBy John Jurewicz

Janis Joplin returned to BostonSunday before a packed house whobraved one of the worst blizzards inrecent years to see the best whitefemale blues singer in music.

The first part of the concert sawWinter establish itself as a group towatch. Blues bands are a dime a dozenthese days,. what with everybodysounding like everybody else, butJohnny Winter, with his wailing harpand complete mastery of thefingerboard, manages to derive a freshand exciting sound from a thoroughacquaintance with traditional blues.Bass player Tom Shannon anddrummer John Turner providedcommendable backing, fortunatelywithout the need of twenty-minutedrugged solos to affirm their presence.Watch for these three gentlemen-they've got promise.

And then came Janis with her newband. A mind reader in the audiencewould have read one question: "Willshe be better or worse without BigBrother?" Big Brother and the HoldingCompany used to catch a lot morecriticism than they deserved justbecause-it's hard to play behind asuperstar. Well, hard or not, Sunday'sconcert showed it can be done. Theone (other) familiar face on stage wasBig Brother's Sam Andrew on guitar.Rounding out the personnel of the newgroup are Roy Markowitz (drums),Frank Campbell (bass), RichardCampbell (Hammond organ), TerryGinsley (trumpet), and Terry Clements(saxophone). These six men have puttogether a sound that complements and-enhances the already-well-establishedpower of Janis Joplin. The addition ofthe brass section puts the finishingtouches on solid blues arrangements ofa fine selection of new material as wellas a representative sampling of BigBrother's old hits. The group is nowusing a good amount of materialwritten by Nick Gravenites, formerlyof the Electric Flag, and is geting .away

but still weBy Tony Lima'

The current issue of TheProposition now running in InmanSquare needs a good deal ofrewriting in the first "act" before it-will be up ,to par. For those whoare not familiar with the format,the show advertises itself to be atopical musical satire, divided intotwo "acts",- each of which consistof a series of short skits aboutcurrent issues. Obviously, thebetter-informed members will beable to appreciate the show to agreater degree than those'-who aremerely casual observers of thecontemporary scene.

The most notable performance inthe first act is especially topical tothe Techman. It is a folk-song satireof the Living Theatre and BobDylan rolled into one. The storyopens as the singer tells us oftrying to '"satisfy his libido" byfinding a "conservative, middle-class,American strip joint." He is directed

orth the price·into an auditorium where the LivingTheatre is presenting (of course)Paradise Now:'TI parody is excellent.

In the first act, the bits which.seem to come, across the best are'the on-, two-, and three-liners. TheIlonger ones lose their edge--apidlyland seem to interrupt rather thanJ.keep up th'e pace of the'show. For some reason, the second!act-was a reversal of this. The shortbits came across well; however,there were generally overshadowed:by the longer scenes. Notableeffortswere the two improvisationsand the final scene, a musical satire

,on the Nixon election.The Proposition is one of those

shows which constantly changes asnew material presents itself.Therefore, it is not surprising that anew show is still a bit rough. In afew weeks, when some of the skitshave been replaced, the entire showwill undoubtedly be far better thanit now is.

IS ANYBODY LISTENINGVIEWS?BUSINESSMEN ARE.

TO CAMPUS

- Ilo

In the course of the Dialogue Program, Arnmod.:Shelby, a Latin American Studies major atTulane, also will explore issues with Mr.Galvin; as will David M. Butler, ElectricalEngineering, Michigan State, and Stan Chess,Journalism, Cornell, with Mr. Doan; similar/y,Mark Bookspan, Pre-Med, Ohio State, andDavid G. Clark, Political Science M/lAcandidate at.Stanford, with Mr. DeYouri.

These Dialogues will appear in this publication,and other campus newspapers across thecountry, throughout this academic year.Campus comments are invited, and should beforwarded to Mr. DeYoung, Goodyear, Akron,Ohio; Mr. Doan, Dow Chemical, Midland,Michigan; or Mr. Galvin, Motorola, FranklinPark, Illinois, as appropriate.

Three chief executive officers- The GoodyearTire & Rubber Companys Chairman, RussellDeYoung, The Dow Chemical Company'sPresident, H. D. Doan, and Motorola'sChairman, Robert W. Galvin-are respondingto serious questions and viewpoints posed byleading student spokesmen about businessand its role in our changing society throughmeans of a campus/corporate DialogueProgram.

Here, Arthur M/1. Klebanoff, a senior at Yale,who plans graduate studies and a career ingovernment, is exchanging views withMr. Galvin.

disciplining the group to adhere to thesubject. Carefully disciplined, no-nonsensecreative sessions often produce table-bangings and heated exchanges ratherthan affability ... and out of them maycome solutions to complex problems anddecisions involving millions of dollars andaffecting thousands of employees and the -public. An inefficient or conformist thinkgroup would waste talents, manhours,and money.

Business is to blame for the fact thattoday's college students must make acritical choice between business andother careers without sufficient knowledgeon which to base such a decision.Students daily exposed to the campus arewell-equipped with knowledge aboutteaching; an abundance of facts onmedicine, government service, and manyother fields has long been available. Butbusiness has neglected to communicateadequately by way of personal experience,the really significant facts about therealities of business to the very peopleit is trying to attract.

Its enormous accomplishments that haveproduced the highest standards of livingin the world . . , its massive research anddevelopment programs that are probinginto-outer space and underseas, whichwill profoundly affect virtually every facetof man's life ... its increasing directinvolvement in the social problems oftoday, and the efforts to devisepracticable means of dealing with rootcauses, not merely surface symptoms,are all part of the daily operatonsof business.

The solutions being achieved result from'group-think" efforts within acorporation, or between a number ofbusinesses, or as the result of acooperative effort between business andgovernment. No one individual possessessufficient facts or knowledge to direct allgrowth phases of a major enterprise. Noone sector of the economy has thetechnical know-how or resources to carrythe load for the continued forward thrustof our national progress.

Within this framework there are"individual" selective tasks and goalsrequiring "individual" responses. It isthrough the intermingling of individualtalents that viable solutions to thecomplex problems of today, and thechallenges of tomorrow will be found.

Dear Mr. Galvin: Dear Mr. Klebanoff:

The trend on the nation's campuses istoward greater freedom--and responsibility-for the individual student. Whether theaction is extension of visiting hours forwomen or relaxation of courserequirements; the' result is the same:a placing of greater trust in theindividual, and a growing array offlexible alternatives for that individual.

.·.

Yet when he looks at business, andparticularly at big business, a student seesan organization oriented to the grouprather than the individual, and to thatgroup's security rather than theindividual's challenge. That "group" is anycollection of administrative peers andimmediate supervisors which meetsfrequently at all Ievels of the bureaucracy.

What began as an attempt to imitate thehighly successful "team" of technologistshas become a plodding group ofadministrative bureaucrats. And whereasthe team produced, the group ponders.But "group-think" is a strange brandof thought indeed. Group-think placesa premium on affability rather thancreativity, and waste rather thanefficiency. Somehow, group-thinkdemands little or no substantive thinkingon the part of the individual.

Lately, group-think has becomesynonymous with business administration.Some consultinrg firms exist merely tosensitize the individual to the group.Yet administration has always been thataspect of business meant to appeal mostto a socially conscious college generation.Is it any wonder then that the trendtoward individual freedom andresponsibility coincides with a growingalienation towards business as a career?

My question Mr. Galvin is what willbusiness do to provide the individual withthe opportunity-and incentive-toperform, as an individual, the kinds oftasks he is both prepared andanxious to perform?Sincerely yours, ,

The desire of young people for greaterindividual freedom and-responsibility isnot confined to the campus, but is acharacteristic of the maturing process.It is not a phenomenon.of this generation.And it isxa good thing when expressedconstructively.

As a college student and member.ofseveral important campus committees,you must be aware of the importance ofindividuals pooling ideas and efforts.University-sponsored research programsinquiring into needed social reforms, andworking out pilot projects as prototypesolutions-methods to overcome wide-spread illiteracy in the ghettos; toencourage self-respect through self-help,for example-reflect team efforts. Evenactions undertaken by the dissenters andprotesters on campus result from"'committee action" and not the blandish-ments of one individual.

The concept of granting more and morefreedom to act responsibly, withauthority; is not alien-to business. It isfundamental. Individuals demonstratetalents. Those talents need each other forthe attainment of composite results. Inthe pooling there is no loss of indivi-duality or freedom.

Business is, and must be, stronglyconcerned with the individual, but sincerunning a business is a team effort, therehas to be group orientation, too.

In business, as in other fields, manydecisions and actions result from "group-think" meetings, which do indeeddemand substantive thinking from theindividual. It is my opinion that morecreative ideas come from a number ofpeople "thinking" together thanseparately. One person's ideas spark thethinking of another; some people arenaturally better at conceiving the germ ofan idea than at refining it to a practicaldegree. In a group-think one draws upona multiplicity of talents and viewpoints.

I have attended many group-thinks butseldom one approaching your description.Certainly some were unproductive ...but usually because of negligence in

reorganzationreorganization proposals which hadbeen supported by one faction of Ins-comm led by Steve Ehrmann '71.Allagreed that this petition bound Ins-comm to hold a referendum on thepetition, and then hold one on thethree constitutions. Peter Q. Harris '69,SCEP Chairman, lamented the exis-tence of the petition, which wouldlead to more referenda, malting thecontinued participation by a large por-tion of the student body unlikely.

New proposalAfter a forty-five minute debate on

the necessity for accepting the Ehr-mann petition, the exact way in whichthis petition's reqiiests could be imple-mented, and other items, Steve Carhart'70 editor of The Tech stated the beliefthat neither of the three proposals onthe Ehrmann petition was really usefuland called for a new eddort to create afourth proposal which would bind astudents, faculty, and administrationtogether into one government.

After some further discussion, itbecame apparent that regardless of howmany proposals eventually were inclu-ded in the Ehrnann referendum, noone felt that the Insconem sponsoredreferendum on types of governmentschedules for Thursday should be held.Accordingly. a motion was made tostop the Inscomm referenda set forThursday, and for next February 25.

A quorum call was taken, and it wasfound that there were still only ninevoting members present, plus the UAP.Since a quorum of 12 is required to acton any motion, the Inscomm meetingbroke up around 5:00PM without can-celling its referendum Thursday.

Renovationcloses WTBSuntil March 2

WTBS will be off the air untilSunday, .March 2, for massiverenovation of both technicalfacilities and programming.

New staff members with ideas forimproved programming are .beingrecruited from throughout theBoston area, according to BroughTurner '71, the station's recentlyappointed General Manager.

"We intend to move away fromthe fixed weekly program scheduleto allow special, one-time programs,or programs appearing regularly butless than once a week," saidTurner.

"Above all, we are looking fororiginality in programming conceptsand the door to experiments on theair is open to anyone whether theyare from MIT or elsewhere."

Turner explained that WTBS doesnot intend to compete with localcommercial stations in musicbroadcasting. Criteria for newprogramming include a quest forshows which are "interesting anddifferent".

'"They need not be educational incontent, although we intend toincrease both educational and publicaffairs."

During the time when WTBS isshut down this spring, WBS(Wellesley College radio station) willbe he,-, over WTBS's AM facilities.

Turner urged anyone interested injoining the staff of WTBS tocontact the station at 868-9827.

WTBS broadcasts throughrestricted-radiation AM at 640 kc toportions of the MIT residencesystem and through FM at 88.1 mcto the greater Boston area.

By Charles MannNominations for the 1969 Carl Tay-

lor Compton Awards have been.declared open. This is the first year thnerevised selection procedure for theawards will be in effect.

The awards, donated by the BostonStein Club, are given for distinguishdedcontributions to the MIT community.In the past selection has been criticizedas somewhat haphazard. To correctthis, the Student and Faculty Commit-tees on Environment have developed aprocedure which will incorporate stu-

the good of the community. The newselection committee will include severalstudents chosen at random, representa-tives of the Dean's Office, the FacultyCommittee on Student Environment,the donors-the Boston Stein Club, andthe Graduate Student Council.

The selection committee concludedthat the past awards have not alwaysbeen made on the basis of informationas complete as desired and they hopethat the new procedure will be morerepresentative of the feelings of thecommunity and that more evidencewill be considered before making theawards.

Absolutely. If you're a 30-year-old engineer who'sfailed to keep up with the latest developments in hisfeld.

Because Western Electric's an acknowledged in-dustrial leader in graduate engineering training, that'sone worry our engineers don't have. Our nearly-completed Corporate Education Center near Prince-ton, N. J., for instance, will have a resident staff ofover 1 00. More than 31 0 engineering courses will be

offered, and about 2,400 engineers will study therein 1969. It's the most advanced facility of its kind.

Ask around. You'll find that when it comes to antici-pating change, Western Electric is way out in front.And we make every effort to keep our engineers theretoo. See our recruiter or write College Relations,222 Broadway, New York, N. Y. 10038.

eosts as being substantially lowerthan off-campus housing androughly average or below averagewhen compared with the costs ofcomparable universities.

Bishoff added that an increasehas been avoided over the last fiveyears by increasing summer use ofdormitories and various cost-cuttingtechniques. There is no longer anysubstantial gain to be made inr theseareas. he said.

One issue which was not initiallyon the agenda but was discussedanyway wa s th e currentdissatisfaction with commons. Inthis matter, the members of theadministration present noted thatthere were two distinct issues: thatof voluntary as opposed tocompulsory commons, and that ofthe quality of commons and theassociated services.

Wadleigh noted that the dean'soffices the faculty committee onstudent environment, and a groupof students reached the decisionseveral years ago that the presenceof a relatively small dining facilityin eacli living group contributes tothe overall educational process. Theonly way to makc this financiallyfeasible, however. is to require allresidents of houses with dining hallto take commons. A ll actionconcerning dining services in recentyears has been based upon thispolicy.

opportunities for all. But Black stu-dents know that our wel"- ucated hasbeen woefully inefficient in pursuit ofthese goalls. Pious statements fromthese adults Suggesting that Black,centers represent a retreat fromdemocratic ideals just do not ring triteto themn.

It is important to state clearly whatis trrie,: that dormitory arrangementsare. traditionally, largely elective-theone exception, freshman dormitoryassignments. What is the record here'?There is no indication that the age-oldpractice of assigning Jewish roommatesto incoming Jewish freshmen haschanged in the last quarter c~entury.Nor is there any' evidence that rcsi-dencc deans ever tried to discouragestudents of a single nationality orreligsios; affiliation fromn seeking, asfriends. c~ommon housing.

In addition, it should be empha-sized that faculty and administratorsalike have long considered it academ-ically beneficiall to set up dormitorycorridors as language centers. Theseprovide an elective opportunity forupper-class language majors to improvetheir language skills and to permit amore informal ex~change on the historyand culture of the country understudy. F:amniliar? Why is this programacceptable when faculty sponsored.and an "unseemly demand" when sug-gested by Black students? It hadNEVER been suggested that suchcenters isolate the participating stu-dents. to their detriment, or that suchcenters do violence to the democraticcomplexion of the university.

If our younger citizens are toaccomplish those goals toward whichwe have made but the barest begin-nings, then we must be willing topermit them to try their own ways andstop pretending that those ways are sodifferent from traditional practices orso threatening to some fantasy ofdemocratic life. It is time. indeed, totrust to free enterprise in the universitysociety, assured that poor enterprisewill fall of its own wveight. Black andwhite students alike will learn to con-struct better enterprises year by year,examining their own previous error orprogress, as every generation of stu-dents has done.

Airlines may drophalf-fare standby

Students under 21 in the nearfuture may no longer be able to flyfor half-fare on the major airlinesthat now offer the program.

Civil Aeronautics Board ExaminerArthur S. Presnet has issued adecision calling for the eliminationof the airline youth fare because hejudges' it discriminatory to adult,full-fare passengers. If the decision.is upheld by the five-member board,youth fares will be dropped in 30days.

The decision came under attackin the House of Representatives byRepresentative Arnold Olsen I (D.Mont.). He charged that the CABruling would "encourage thousandsof young people to resume theillegal and dangerous practice ofhitch hiking or to attempt long,exhausting automobile trips,frequently in unsafe vehicle;"

Asserting that "I fail to see howpermitting a young person to flyhalf fare on a seat that wouldotherwise go empty discriminatesagainst regular passengers," Olsendescribed the half-fares as a "brightspot in a world that generallydiscriminates against youngpeople." Olsen further cited thebenefits to the cause of educationthat half-fare schedules have broughtabout. He also indicated that theruling would threated half-faretickets for youngsters between 2and 12 years of age, for militarypersonnel and other special fareplans.

Graphic originalsto be rented fromStratton collection

The Stratton Collection of GraphicArt will now be available to studentson a rental basis. Originally establishedto honor the work of Mrs. Kay Strat-ton, wife of the previous President ofMIT, the collection consists of originalprints of contemporary graphic art.

Although the small size of the col-lection had previously limited the exhi-bition of these prints to living areascommon to most Students, the collec-tion is now of sufficient size as to allowthe prnts to be rented for use in pri-vate rooms. The expressed intention ofthis project is to enable students toenhance their rooms through the use oforiginal, distinctive prints. Prints werechosen over traditional paintingsbecause the prints are inexpensive,allowing more to be bought with thefunds available. The scale of the printsis also better suited to student rooms.The prints are framed and faced withglass, so that the possibility of damageis minimal. Al) are original, limited edi-tions, and signed by the artist.

Stoic as we try to be, the guy who complains aboutour 'paper still galls us. Not because he's complaining, butbecause that's all he's doing.

The way we figure it, the people who can do such athorough job, of pointing out our faults are the very peoplewho could best help us improve our product.

So here's the pitch: if you don't think The Tech is asgood as it could be, we challenge you to help make it

better. We have immediate openings for people with anykind of relevant talent which they feel motivated toexercise.

In diverse fields ranging from writing stories tooperating composing machines to keeping books, we needyour ideas and your help. Interested? Drop by the officeany Sunday or Wednesday night. We're on the fourth floorof the Student Center-W20-483.

if you've ever resorted to NoDoz" at 4 a.m.the night before an exam, you've probablybeen disappointed.

-NoDoz, after all, is no substitute forsleep. Neither is anything else we canthink of.

What NoDoz is is a very strong stim-ulant. In fact, NoDoz has the strongeststimulantyoucan buy without a prescrip-tion.

Caffei ne.What's so strong, about that?if we may cite The Pharmacological

Basis of Therapeutics: Caffeine is apowerful central nervous stimulant. Caf-feine excites all portions of the centralnervous system. Caffeine stimulates allportions of the cortex, but its main actionis on the psychic and sensory functions.It produces a more rapid and clearer flowof thought and allays drowsiness andfatigue. After taking caffeine, one is ca-pabie of more sustained intellectual ef-fort and a more perfect association ofideas. There is also a keener apprecia-tion of sensory stimuli.

Very interesting. But why take

NoDoz when you cancup of coffee?

get caffeine in a

Very simple. You take NoDoz all atonce instead of sipping coffee for 10 min-utes. And if you take two NoDoz tablets,the recommended dosage, you get twicethe caffeine in a cup of coffee.

Two tablets- isn't that likely to behabit formning? Definitely not. NoDoz iscompletely non-habit forming.

Which means it's safe to takewhether you're cramming at night. Orabout to walk into an 8 o'clock class. Ordriving somewhere (even though you'rerested) and the monotony of the roadmakes you drowsy.

One last thing you should knowabout NoDoz.' It now comes in two forms.Those familiar white pills you take withwater. And a chewable tablet calledNoDoz Action Aids: . It tastes like a choc-olate mint, but it does everything regularNoDoz does.

Andifyou'vemanaged g"''" :^t

to stay awake thislong, you knowthat's quite a lot.

The only Jumbo points came atthe behest of Bruce Davies '71(191), and even these points weretainted. At 2:05 of his match withJack Scala, D)avies suffered adislocated knee. This injury forcedDavies to default the match.Fortunately, the injury doesn't seemserious, and Davies should be inaction soon.

Finally Fred andree pinned CarlJohnson at 2:49 to end the match.The impressive Andfee has nowstrung together six straight pins, andit looks like he may go undefeatedin dual meets this season.

Babson countered with a pair ofgoals donated by lapses in the MITdefense. Goalie Lord then gave up hissixth point on a backhander by anenemy wing, and was replaced by SteveErickson '69. The period ended withthe Beavers on the short end of a 6-3score.

Babson tallied its finalgoal after a face off to the right ofgoalie. Ericksen went down to hisknees a little too fast and missed a highshot over his head.

By Bill MichelsThe varsity ski team has

Prior to intercession the crosscountry, team had competed byitself in non-intercollegiate meets atthe Lyndonville Relays on December29 and the Dartmouth Relays. Bothtimes MIT's leading contenders wereCoach Helge Bjaaland '67 andCaptain Doug Caie '69, who didwell against the Olympic qualityopposition.

The season got into full swingover intercession as the teamparticipated in the Yale Carnival atStratton Mountain. Vermont,January 31. John Schultz '71 hadan excellent day, winning the slalomand placing ninth in the ;randSlalom for a fourth' place in thecombined totals. Unfortunately, therest of the Alpine team failed tofinish in the top half of the fieldand the Nordic events werecancelled due to poor conditions.Thus MIT 'placed fifth, beatingMaine in both races.

The following weekend the teamtravelled to Orono, Maine. for theMaine Carnival. On the first day

Schultz again led Tech with a thirdplace in the Giant Slalom, with therest of the team far behind. In theafternoon the Nordic team showedits strength and depth and finishedsecond in the cross country, justone' point out of first. Cale fellhard early in the race but finishedthird, with Max Daamen '70 rightbehind in sixth and Hans Rasmussen'70 in eighth.

The next day Schultz was 0.2seconds off the top time in his firstrun but, after spinning on a turn inthe second race, had to settle forfifth. chip Schroeder '70 had a fastfirst run but was disqualified tformissing a gate.

By Jay ZagerA last second desperation shot by

Harvard's John Mears powered theCrimson Junior Varsity to a come frombehind 65-64 victory over the MIT JVin a game played in Rockwell Cage.

Having had a game against the Uni-versity of New Hampshire postponedthe night before, the Tech five waswell-rested and well-prepared for theirfirst of two encounters with Harvard.Had the game been two secondsshorter, they would have extendedtheir unbeaten streak to five games.

The first half of play was controlledentirely by the visitors, who consis-tently out-rebounded the smaller-Tech-men and walked off the court with a38-33 lead. The engineers, using aman-to-man defense, were unable tocontain Harvard junior Brad Call, whopoured in 19 points while leading bothteams in rebounding. MIT was able tokeep the margin close as they played

. deliberate basketball, and repeatedlywaited for the good shot. Dennis Fla-herty '71 led the Tech scorers witheight, while Captain Bob Listfield '69had six.

second half trying to catch the Crimsonas they played aggressive defense whilelooking forP each other at the other endof the court. Five minutes into thehalf, they finally caught Harvard asJimmy Shields '71 hit a foul shot togain a 4242 tie.

By Ron ClineThe varsity swimmers evened their

record at 4-4 Tuesday with a shatteringtriumph over the visiting Tufts Jumbos.The outcome of the meet was obviousfrom the very start; and by the time sixof the eleven scheduled events werecompleted, the engineers had taken acommanding lead of 45-7. CoachCharles Batterman used the spread forroster experimentation in the rest ofthe meet, but MIT still came out ontop ,by a very comfortable margin,58-37.

Al Graham '71, Tom Nesbitt '69,Jim Bronfenbrenner '70 and DaveJames '71 kicked off the drive with a4:03.2 win in the 400 medley relay.Co-captain Luis Clare '69 and LimLynch '69 combined for a one-twopunch in the 200 freestyle.with timesof 1:58.2 and 2:04.4 respectively,put-ting Tecfi in a 15-1 lead. Bill Stageadded five points with a 23.8 win inthe 50 freestyle, aided by Don Riley'70, who placed third.

Co-Captain Lee Dilley '69 gave anoutstanding performance in the indivi-dual medley with a,2:11.4 first placetime-only 0.4 seconds off the MITvaristy record set by Luis Clare twoyears ago and 2.6 seconds better thanany Jumbo has ever done. Larry Markei'71 chipped in a second to boost themeet score to 29-4.

The engineers doubled up twicemore ir. the next two events, diving andthe 200 butterfly. Jesse Heines '70 andDan Gentry '69 teamed up for one-tworespectively in the former; Bob Ror-schach '70 did not compete. Grahamand Bronfenbrenner combined foreighlit more counters with times of2:16.1 and 2:30.0 in the butterfly.

The rest, was for the most part,embellishment. Tim Gilmore '70 addeda third place (56.5) in the 100 free,Riley chipped in a second (2:23.3) inthe 200 backstroke and Phil Isenberg'71 grabbed a third (6:45.0) in the 500free..

Dave Lawrence '71 touched out

teamate Clare to spearhead Tech's lastof five one-two finishes in the meet.Lawrence's 2:36.4 was only 0.3seconids ahead of Clare's second placetime.

The engineers entered two teams inthe last event, the 400 freestyle relay,with two members of the starting fourgoing to either team. Even with thisthinning, Tech was nosed out by onlytwo tenths of a second as Gilmhnore,Rozales, Stage, and Dilly (with a 49.6anchor leg) came through with arespectable 3:34.8. Riley, Lynch, Mar-kel, and Graham were not far behindwith a 3:40.9.

The swimmers have a good chanceof repeating the fine 9-4 mark of lastyear. They face two respectively weakteams this weekend, New York Univer-isty and Fordham, and decisive winsare expected in both cases.
