Photography work such as

By Mike McNameeThe Department of Archi-

tecture is evaluating a "realloca-tion" of resources which mightresult in phasing-out most of thestaff and courses offered by thephotography section.

A proposal has been preparedfor the department's PolicyCommittee which recommendsthat the Creative PhotographyLaboratory's functions besplit between the Center forAdvanced, Visual Studies and theVisual Studies Workship.

While department officialsinsist that the "reallocation" willhave no effect on the number ofcourse offered or the facilitiesavailable on campus, staffmembers of the PhotographySection, say it "really meansclosing the labs as they nowexist" and loss of most of thelab's courses.

Federal funds cut both waysBy Mike McNamee(first in a series)

TANSTAAFL - There ain'tno such thing as a free lunch.

That's one thing colleges anduniversities find out quicklywhen they use federal funds forresearch, financial aid, facilitiesexpansion, or almost any otherpurpose.

The federal government hasbeen a prime source for aid inthe rapid growth of highereducation since World War II.MIT has been one of the biggestbeneficiaries of the federal lar-gesse, especially through massivegovernment support for scienceand technology in the Atomicand Space Ages, MIT is nowsixth in the nation for receipt offederal aid of various sorts.

But govemmenr.money nevercomes without[st ings,; and -aidto higher education has been amajor tool for the federalgovernment to implement a

number of social programs downthrough the years. AffirmativeAction and OSHA regulationsare two examples of programsthat apply to colleges becausethey take federal money' -programs for which the schools

pay the bills.And MIT is finding itself

increasingly entangled in a spe-cial set of federal rules andregulations which apply becauseof the Institute's role in scien-tific research - rules governingeverything from the care and

handling of laboratory animalsto protection of workers dealingwith radioactive materials, ruleswhich add expenses from extrafaculty time for research reviewto construction costs for avariety of facilities to controlside-effects of research.

Colleges, like businesses, havealways resented the heavy handof government when it infringedon their freedon - or costs themmoney. But in the currentfinancial crunch, the protestsagainst federal program costs aregetting louder - as exemplifiedby President Jerome Wiesner'sremarks at the November facultymeeting about "the skyrocketingmandated costs being imposedupon us by all kinds of govern-ment programs." The sharp risein social programs and theattendant costs, Wiesner siad,was one of the "primary rea-sons" for MIT's failure topredict the budget crisis beforeit hit.

The costs of such programsare often difficult to separateout. Often they consist ofnothing except staff time, ad-

In addition, the committeereiterated the faculty rule whichstates that Incompletes shouldonly be. given where "only aminor portion of the work ofthe course" remains to becompleted. CAP will require thatinstructors fill out a standardreport form in each case -in

By Joseph RiemerThe T7ch's journalistic integ-

ritv has been abused. Under themask of the title "Commentary"it was led by the MIT Arab Clubto publish odn Nov. 15, 1975, anunprecedented collection ofmisinformation, fallacies andoutright lies.

But the damage may still becorrected and the followinganalysis aims exactly at that.

The .4rab Club says:

dence for over 30 centuries -does not exist any more in thecollective mind of the MIT ArabClub. There is a simple, howeverfrightening, logic to this Arabdisavowal of the Jewish people:By redefining the Jewish peopleas a religious sect the Arabs hopeto persuade the world that theJewish people does not deserve anational home of its own. Thefact that the Arab nation has 20such states does not stop the

e . an unprecedented collectionof misinformation, fallaciesand outright lies.

- su " I' ,

... we Arab-Christians,Arab-Moslems, or Arab-Jews,we hold great reverance forJudaism as a religion, as ourholy books, the Bible and theKoran teach us.Arab-Jews? In the MIT Arab

Club? You gotta be kidding!Name one "Arab-Jew" who willadhere to such a statement. Ormaybe you are refering to theless than 500 remaining Jewspersecuted today in Egypt, asmentioned in the testimony byMr. Mangubi.

"Great reverence to Juda-ism?" Have you forgotten theIslamic tennet of "Jihad" - holywar - that must be wagedagainst. tHose parts of the worldthat do not accept the authorityof Islam: "Fight against such ofthose who have been given thescripture and believe not inAllah . . until they pay thetribute, being brought low." -Koran, Suma 9, Repentence V.29.

The Arab Club says:Zionism is a political

ideology with its own politi-cal institutions, and politicalgoal, the latter being theestablishment of an exclusive-ly Jewish state in Palestine.Zionism defines Jewishness asan ethnic and not strictlyreligious trait.Zionism, the national libera-

tion movement of the Jewishpeople, is being redefined andtransformed, courtesy of theMIT Arab Club. According tothe club, there is no Jewishpeople. Only Jewish religion.

Have you noticed? A4000-year old nation withunique creations of language,literature and art. A people witha glorious history 2 milleniabefore the emergence of the firstArab tribes; a people who hasfought for its national indepen-

Arabs from graciously offeringIsrael, the only state of theJewish people, to dismantleitself in favor of a 21st Arabstate, euphemistically calledsecular democracy (presumablymodeled after the successfulharmony of Christians andMoslems in Lebanon).

Zionism strives for Jewishnational .sovereignty, not Jewishexclusivity. Anybody can be anIsraeli citizen. In fact, more than15 per cent of Israel's citizensare non-Jewish. (

There are Germans living inFrance, but'France is the land ofthe French people. There areArabs living in Israel, but Israelis the land of the Jewish people.

The Arab Club says:When Zionism was found-

ed, towards the end of the

desolation is here that not evenimagination can grace with thep-omp of life and action. Wereached Tabor safely ... Wenever saw a human being on thewhole route." - The InnocentsAbroad, N.Y., 1966; p. 3 5 1 -4 4 1 .

As fo r the "Palestiniannation," here is how it is viewedby Yassir Arafat, the leader ofthe so-called PLO: "Palestine isonly a small drop in the greatArab ocean. Our nation is theArab nation extending from theAtlantic Sea to the Red Sea andbeyond." - The New Republic,Nov. 16, 1974.

The Arab Club quotes a 1940diary from a certain Mr. Weitz:

... there is no other waythan to transfer the Arabsfrom here to the neighboringdountries, to transfer all ofthem. Not one village, notone tribe, must be left.'."Intentionally, the Arab Club

sets the statement out of itshistorical context. This is writ-ten in 1940. When Arabsadamantly refuse to accept Jewswho lived in Palestine. At aperiod when the Mufti - thehead of the Arabs in Palestine -entered an agreement with Hitlerby which the Jews in theMid-East would be exterminatedafter Germany's victory. Whentransfer of populations is aninternationally accepted prin-ciple (advocated by PresidentHoover as a means of settlingirreconcilable regional conflicts- was this U.S. President a racisttoo?).

Zionism strives for Jewishnational sovereignaty, not Jewishexclusivity.

- -- - 4

19th century, its motto was:"Give us a land without apeople for a people withoutany land." It means Palestine.The Zionist claim that Pales-tine is a land without peopleis false...The Arab propoganda, in a

singular effort of reconstructinghistory, describes a centuries oldnation living -in a flourishinghomeland, suddenly invaded bythe Zionists in the latter part ofthe 19th century.

Mark Twain visited the HolyLand in 1867 and wrote what hesaw as he travelled the length ofthe country: "Desolate countrywhose soil is rich enouggh but isgiven over wholly to weeds asilent mournful expainse. A

In addition, we would like' toemphasize that Israel, unlike allArab states, had always prac-ticed free speech, and Mr.Weitz's opinions as expressed inhis diary were strictly his own.

The Arab Club says:.. This made Zionsim

adopt a racist policy mani-fested in three slogans:

- Kubush Kakarba (con-quest of land) which meantthat Jews and only Jewsshould own and work theland.

- Kibush Ha'apoda (con-quest of labor) which meantthat Jewish enterprisesshould, as much as possiblehire Jewish workers.

- T'ozeret sla'aretz (prod-

uce of the land) whichpractically meant the totalboycott of Arab goods.The explanations given by the

Arab Club to the ab ovementioned slogans are indicativeof at best abysmal ignorance.

Kibush Hakaska iS the termfor the process by which theJews transformed that desolate

-desert, as depressingly describedby Mark Twain, into a blossom-ing land. It meant buying barrenland from the-Turkish govern-ment and from absentee Arablandlords, at exorbitant prices(at 10 times the price of land infertile Iowa at the time) andredeeming that land, turning itinto a fertile and productivearea. It is the Jewish highlydeveloped farming methods andimproved health care facilitiesthat attracted a large wave of

- Israel's AFL-CIO. In fact,about 65 per cent of all Arabemployes are in the Histadrut.More than 50,000 Arabs workersfrom Judea, Samaria and the GazaStrip commute daily to work inIsraeli villages and cities. Theonly ones who try to preventArabs from working in Israel arethe PLO, by use of terror againstthe very group they purport torepresent.

Incidentally, we did go to thenicrofilm stacks in Harvard U.to look up this accuation. Guesswhat we've found: The Nov. 15,1969 issue of Ha'aretz was neverpirnted! The reason? Simple, itwas Saturday, the Jewish Shab-bat, when no newspapers inIsrael are published. '

IWhile dining in Lobdell early

one evening, a visitor sufferedthe loss of his wallet from hisjacket hanging on the back of hischair. The wallet, minus money,was recovered later in a Building7 trash bin.

Two women attending aparty at an MIT fraternity lefttheir handbags hanging on a coatrack inside that fraternity. Whenthey returned about an hourlater, they found both theirwallets to be missing, removedby a person or persons un-known.

A van parked in the PowerPlant lot was vandalized in theearly morning hours one day lastweek. A Citizen's Band radiovalued at $150 and the radio'santenna priced at $25 werestolen.

Investigations are underwayto determine the identity ofthieves who recently stoletelevision mrn onit ors and anoscilloscope from Main Conm-plex laboratories in separateincidents last week. Total lossfor the three units exceeds$3500.

Two Texas Instrument calcu-lators, valued at a total ofaround S180, were stolen froman unsecured office recently.Two young men had been seenwandering about in the area byoffice workers who later recalledthat they "hadn't looked right."Unfortunately, before the theftsno one thought too much oftheir presence.

When workers in a MainComplex office went to lunchone day last week, they securelylocked the front door to keepout thieves. Unfortunately they

forgot to close and lock thewindow, which proved to be theavenue -of entry for the peoplewho stole the office's new IBMSelectric Self-Correcting type-writer, valued at $680.

Green Building RoofBecause of extensive and

continual malicious destructionof property and damage sus-tained by instruments andmachinery on the roof of theGreen Building caused byunauthorized people frequentingthat area, it has been foundnecessary to install a compre-hensive alarm system, wireddirectly to the Campus PatrolOffice, throughout the roof area.Unauthorized entry into theroof area at any hour triggers thealarm, resulting in a dispatch ofOfficers to the scene. Suchactivity (including "sight-

_ ~I6B~ear~er~~

seeing") is viewed as a seriousviolation by the Patrol and itwill, be -treated as such. Inparticular, unauthorized visits tothe roof area by students will nolonger be considered "harmlesshacking," -in view of the severeand continual damage caused inthe area prior to the installationof the alarm system.

Imagine an order of 22,000 priests and brothers in 73countries around the World. (That's a pretty big family.)

But that's what the Salesians of St. John Bosco are allabout - a large family of community-minded men dedicatedto the service of youth. (And no one gets lost.)

In the 1800's a chance meeting between a poorpriest and a street urchin served to create a movement of suchsuccess that it is still growing today. Don Bosco became thepriest who brought youth back from the streets - andback to God.

He reasoned that a program of play, learn and pray wouldmake useful citizens of the world. He crowded out evil withreason, religion and kindness in a (what was then unheard of)atmosphere of family spirit.

The ideals of St. John Bosco are-still with us today. Hiswork goes on in boys clubs, technical and academic schools,guidance centers, summer camps and missions. And his veryhuman approach is very evident in the family spirit of the.Salesians. This is the way he wanted it. This is the way it is.The Salesian experience isn't learned - it's lived.

By Dave DobosThe MIT indoor track team

expects to enj oy a muchimproved season over that of1974-75. Several returning let-termen and a large freshmanturnout are the chief reasons forthe optimism.

Third year head coach Gor-don Kelly is aiming for a .500record, significantly higher thanlast year's -3-7 mark. He feelsthat the 55 men out for thevarsity squad of 22 will createstiff competition within theteam and therefore betterperformances against otherschools.

Okine is a sure bet tocapture the hurdes in all the dualmeets and should score heavilyin the sprints as well. Senior JimBanks can run anything from the50-yard dash to the .600-yardrun, and, with teammate Okine,will toe the line in the sprints.

Grtpp lersBy Farrell Peternal

-A high - level of talent andpotential clearly showed throughpoor conditioning and lack ofdepth as the MIT varsitywrestling team started its seasonwith a 27-16 win over the Un-iversity of New Hamprshire(UNH) in a regulation match andan 18-27 defeat to MassachusettsMaritime Academy (MMA) in aformal scrimmage Tuesday.

Wrestling back-to-back dualmatches to fresh teams, the MITgrapplers at times looked verygood, though the subpar con-ditioning, fatigue from the firstmatch, and the excellence of theMMA team produced a poorshowing in the scoring columnfor 'MIT- in. the second match.But because the match wastermed a formal scrimmage andnot a regulation match, MITretains an undefeated 1-0 record.

Lack of depth, especially inthe lower weights, threatened tobe a big factor when .the team'ssole 118-pounder, Mort Isaacson'79, was injured a few daysbefore the matches, 134-poundWerner Haag '77 was hurt, and

'150-pound John Thain '77became sick after the firstmatch, but all three rose to theoccasion to complete theirmatches.

Five freshman wrestlers de-buted ~ for MIT, collectivelywinning four and losing four-matches in the two dual meets.The only freshman to win twomatches was 177-pound BruceWroble who won a superiordecision against UNH and

Heavyweight co-captainErland Van Lidth de Jeude '76,who placed second in the USWorld Games/Pan AmericanGames Greco-Roman team trialsthis summer, won twice, pinningthe UNH heavyweight in twentyseconds and topping his MMAopponent 7-1. Co-captain JoeTavormina '76, who was side-lined most of last year due to a

knee injury, lost a tough matchby three points to McNally ofUNH in the 177-pound class.

Commenting on the matches,MIT Coach Will Chassey said,"Despite our -disadvantage oftwo matches to their one, weshould have beaten Mass. Mari-time. We have the .personnel todo it." He also pointed out thatTuesday's matches showed that"our conditioning is terrible,"but he remains optimistic for agood season. MIT faces twomore teams, Wesleyan and Bow-doin, this Saturday.

Intercollegiate roundup

Rough week for squadsas only four of ten win

. By Glenn BrownsteinMost of MIT's intercollegiate

winter sports teams opened theirseasons this past week, butbesides women's swimming andwrestling (see above articles),only women's basketball andclub volleyball came up withvictories. The women's basket-ball (1-0) team took a 24-14 leadat halftime and held on to defeatClark, 46-42. The squad nextmeets Worcester Poly Mondaynight at the Cage (8pm varsity,6pm JV).

Club volleyball capturedthree matches against localteams yesterday, topping Went-worth and Northeastern each2-0. and edging Boston College,2-1.
