Within days after the earthquake,staff members removed allelectronics, cameras, and measuringinstruments from telescopesystem, and a rigging companyhoisted the three telescope systemout of the observaotry building.While the instrument sat onshore ina garage, engineers from the solarobservatory, Caltech's OwensValley Radio Observaotory, andCaltech civil engineering depart­ment worked together to designfabricate new telescope drive sys­tems, a stiffer steel pedestal, and anew, stronger concrete pier.

The crane returned on September28, exactly three months after theearthquake, to replace the telescopesin the observaotry. Staff membersthen spent several weeksreassembling the optical andelectonic instruments on tele­scopes, and in early November, sci­entists recorded the first image ofthe sun since quake.

Caltech's Big Bear Solar Obser­vatory, damaged by the 28Landers and Big Bear earthquakes,was reopened last month after morethan four months of repair work.The magnitude 6.6 Big Bear earth­quake,cente.red amere six milesfrom the observaotry, almost rockedthe three-telescope ssytem off itssupports and ruined much of theprecision machinery that steers thefive ton instrument. The telescopessit on a steel pedestal, which isanchored to a co~crete pier. Theshaking bent the pedestal andsheared off its retaining bolts, andcreated a large crack and countlesssmall fissures in the concrete. Largechunks of concrete also fell off thepier in places, exposing the anchorbolts within.

The. shaking destroyedpieces ofmachinery, too, includingagear that helps the largest telescopefollowthe sun, the pivots anddrive systems of the two smallerinstruments struck and damaged acomputer controlledJight fileter ontell. large telescope. Fmtunately, theLanders earthquake, whcihc struck.a few hours earlier, caused a powerfailure, so of the computers atBig Bear were running or dlllTIgedwhen the second tremor hit close tohome.

Outside the building, scientistswere' alarmed to see crevices sev­eral feet deep, four feet wide, and

than students have in past.Thelastgroup addressed the need

for a balance of viewpoints oncampus. They suggested severalthings that might encourage open­ness, honesty, tolerance and respect.The Tech could be encouraged tosolicit andpublish thoughtfulpiecesfrom minority viewpoints on issuesfacing (some subset of) the Caltechcommunity. After-dinnerdiscussiongroups in the Houses, modeled af-

the Counseling Center's pro:grams or the HonorSystemTalksinthe Spring, could create forums fordiscussingdifficultorcontroversialissues, so that students could sharetheir thoughts and experiences witheach other in a somewhatstructuredsetting. Finally, everyonecould takeamore active role in questioning orchallenging the derogatory, stereo­typical, orotherwisehurtful remarksthat they hear, rather than passivelyaccepting them.

The Residence Life LeadershipRetreat gave participants a chanceto meetpeople(fromotherHouses!)witha desire to contribute tostudentlifeand to buildstrongercommunityties, and Capra Ranch (in Fallbrook,near San Diego) is beautiful, evenin the (torrential) rain. groupseemed to agree that the weekendw~. wellworthjts'.pricenighters, and several people saidthat it was the best weekend theyhad had since coming to Tech. KimWest plans to sponsor more retreatslike this one, so don't miss yourchance to go next time!

The students also worked in smallgroups of 3 or 4 to identify ways toimprove undergraduate life. atCaltech, and each group presentedtheir ideas at the end of the retreat.Onegroup suggested that theHousescreate a dinner exchange program,where two Houses would eat to­gether, seated every-other one atthe table (e.g. Rudd, FIem, Rudd,FIem). They also suggested room­mate exchange programs, wherepeople could host students fromother Houses for a day and a night,similar to pre-frosh weekend. Theseactivities would give undergrads achance to meet new people and tolearn more about other Houses.

Othergroups addressed the socialmalaise many people experience atTech. They felt that weekly cam­pus-wide(orat leastundergrad\late­wide) social activities would easethe boredom and provide a way torelax. Greater contact and coordi­nation between the House socialteams, the ASCIT social director,and the Y could help make this(recurring) dream a reality. A re­treat, similarto this one, for acouplemembers from each House's socialteam, the ASCIT social director,and other interestedstudents, wouldgive these people an opportunity to

tokriow. each other, setgroupgoals, learn each others' strengths,and \yorkwith. a professionalplanning social activities on col­lege campuses. With thisbasis, theymight have more success workingtogether and coordinating events

Last weekend, January 15-17, 15undergraduates attended the Resi­dence Life Leadership Retreat atCapra Ranch. The retreat focusedon developing leadership skills,building a sense ofcommunity, andincreasing awareness and under­standing of the diverse needs andexperiencesoffellowstudents. IreneKendall, a consultant from USC,guided the group through a 2-dayseries of presentations and exer­cises on the personal, as well as thepublic, aspects of leadership. Sheencouraged people to take risks,fostering an open atmosphere. As aresult, participants learned moreabout each other and about them­selves. Kim West, the Director ofResidence Life, who planned theretreat and funded it through heroffice, joined the group forstruc­tured as well as purely social ac­tivities, giving the students an op­portunity to see a different side ofher. Even though the subjectswereserious, the relaxed setting and thecompany ofotherTechers made thewhole weekend enjoyable for ev­eryone.

I want more students to becomeinvolved inASCITand voice theiropinions. In .order to encourageparticipation, I will make ASCITasopen and accessible as possible.For example, I. win write a bi~

This rates to be a good hand for our system, 00 I am feeling encouragedwhen I open IROpasses and partnerbids2., game forcing, whichI like a lot. I am about to make a splinterjump when I hear an overcallof 2NT, showing length in the red suits. Not to deterred, I choosetojump to 40, showing my club support and diamond shortness. IROcan get in thisand does by raising my diamonds to five. Partner thinksabout this a bit, but come~up with the bid I want to hear: 5\7. Goodpartner!

I am about to bid the Grand Slam Force because 7. will be coldopposite as little as

"xx \lAn: Oxxx +AQJxxand partnermust have more than that for hisgame force. On my wayseven, however, RHO bids 6<>, making me guess about parmer's

club holding. I think it is really no guess; partner made ~ grand slamtry when he bid 5\7, since we were by then committed to 00 hemust have the top dubs. I bid7., giving the opponents the last guess,hoping strenuously that they do not sacrifice.

7. is passed around to RHO who gives this quite a bit ofthought,as well he might, andfin.ally decides to tmSt us and saves in 70..Howunfortunate. Before I double this and hope to get more than our gameat least, I give some thought to 7". 13 tricksar.e obvious at clubs, butI only see six spades,. one heart, and five dubs at spades. Ifpartnerholdsthe \?Kor a sixthdub and.Ixor three littlespades, wecanmake7., too, which has to be better than defending diamonds. How can Itell if he hasthis stuff! I am pretty confident about the 13th winner,but I cannottell ifspades are good enough to play at the seven-level;certainly partnercould have a singleton, inwhich case7. is a very badbet. How can I tell? I cannot, but fortunately, partner is still in thegame. I choose to pass,. which is·dearly forcing, and must suggestsome higher contract. ?NT seems very unlikely given that I amprobably void in diamonds, 00 the contract I mustbeconsidering is 71ft!.70 goes around to partner who considers for a little while and finallydoubles. This gets passed out andwe collect 500, which is worse thanour game, sowe are happyto find that we get an average score whenseveral pairs are allowed to play fewer diamonds.

The final forcing pass was an unusual one in that normally, forcingpassesat the seven level are intended to suggestbidding a grand afterthey have saved against our small slam. This one was suggesting aconversion to a higher-ranking suit, which had never occurred to mebefore.

Partner held ..lOx \?AJx OOn. .AQIxx

He certainly had his bidding shoes on, but 7. is an excellent con­tract, and today had the benefit ofbeing cold. His decision to doublerather than bid7. was a good' one because he had no extra winner andno real help in spades. Thank you, partner. ,
