The participants in the panel discussion were Dean Gordon Brown; Professors G. E. Valley, Cyrus Levinthal, and David Schalk, and Research Associate Jerome Lettvin. The panelists generally agreed that the film was more right than not.

Dr. Michael Luongo ruled that the cause of death was drowning. An autopsy failed to disclose any wounds or bruises, and no suicide note was found. According to Dr. Luongo, there is nothing to indi- cate that Gromssfeld's death was not accidental.

given him through science, of des-ftoing civilzation. His point wasthat to pretend that the use towhich one's research will be putis unimportant - is to be moral-ly irresponsible. It was at thispoint that he brought up the se-curity officers at MIT, whichProf. Schalk mentioned in hisletter in Tuesday's issue.

Lettvin maintained that these"are merely pro forna, and wieldno real power that has ever cometo his attention. He rejected theidea of a scientist's obligation tosociety as a whole. He statedthat he feels concern and respon-sibility only for the people whomhe knows, and that beyond thatany responsbility becomes toovague an diffuse. Prof Schalkstated that this seemed to hima very short-sighted view ofmorality.

(Ed. note: Recently RichardKriasnow '67, Chairman of theForeign Opportunities Commit-tee, has been writing articles for'The Tech concerning opportun-ities for study in foreign coun-tries. John T. Norton milT'sForeign Study Adviser, Ls writ-ten to informnz us of additionalopporttunities, described below,which will be covered in futurearticles by Krasnowu.)

A recent article in The Techoutlined an opportunity for MITundergraduates to spend a year ofstudy at the Technical Universityof Berlin. Other opportunities ex-ist in Universities and Insttutes

of Technology of university levelin Western Europe, particularlyFrance, Germany and Switzer-land.The MIT undergraduate has es-

sentially two alternatives. Thefirst is to apply to the chosenschool- as a- foreign studentthrough the regular channels, andif accepted, to enroll and workout a suitable program of studies.

The second alternative is to en-roll in a formal overseas programsponsored by amother American

university or a private organiza-tion which is open to M1T stu-dents.

Each alternative has its advan-tages and disadvantages, andthere are several obstacles whichthe student must consider care-fully. The first is the languagerequirement.

A second obstacle is the arI-fer of academic credit for workdone abroad to meet MIT degreerequirements. Finally, there is

By BOy Be~eitThe youth half-fare plan, started

by American Ariri"es lest month,has caught on with the other air-lines, and now many of the majorcarriers in the US offer someldnd of reduction of fare for stu-dents under 22.

American, United, TWA, andsoon Eastern Airlines will offerbasically the same plan. To clar-ify many questions that havearisen about this plan, United'sMIT Campus Representative,Paavo Pyykkonen '67, has out-lined the procedure for a studentusing these fares.

ID card requredAn identification card, which

must be presented when purchas,ing the reduced fare ticket andbe carried by the student whileon flight, can be obtained directlyfrom the airline by showing ade-quate proof of age, in the formof a birth certificate, driver's li-cense, or draft card.

United is attempting to sinlplify-this procedure by working out anarrangement with the Registrar'soffice to certify students' ages.The cost of the card, which isvalid on all the airlines offeringthe plan, is $3.

Begula fare halvedA studernt will be able to fly

at 50% off regular coach rateswhen there is space available onthe flight. He should purchasethe reduced fare ticket an hourbefore flight time, and he will beplaced on standby-after the Mili-tsry. If there is room on theplaie, the soldiers get on first,then the students.

Once the student boards theplane, he will not be removed atintemnediate stops except for full-fare passengers holding confirmedreservations. When the informa-tion is available, the student willbe advised by the airline beforeboarding his flight if full-farepassengers are expected to beboarding at intermediate stops.

Vald year roundThe half-fare plan will be valid

all year round, except at periodsof peaks ai travel, such asThanksgiving, Christmas and Eas-ter, when seats wouldn't normallybe available anyway. Finally,Pyykkonren points out that infor-mation is available from Unitedabout planned seat availabilityprior to departure. Students wouldbe well advised, he says, to callhim or United reservations tocheck on stand-by chances fortheir desired flight a day or twobefore departure.

Eastern Airlines, which will putits plan into effect on Feb. 19,advised that 'die reduced fare ap-plies only to flights within theUnited States, and does not applyto Canada or theCaribbean. East-ern also plans to have reducedfares on its shuttle flights to NewYork and Washington, but warnedthat they would not put on extraplanes to accommodate studentsat half-fare.

Modified youth planAllegheny Airlines is offering

a modified Youth Plan, which re-quires a $10 identification cardwhich has to be purchased yearly.They offer one-third off regularrates for passengers under 22,and they will give Reserved seats.This plan, unlike the others, isalso valid on holidays. The Iden-tification Card may be purchasedat the airport or at the ticketoffice in Boston. Or you can callAllegheny, and they'll mail youan application form.

The Youth Half-Fare Planseems to be catching on quickly,and all the airlines are jumpingon the bandwagon. National andMohawk are both seriously con-sidering it, and so is Pan Amer-ican.

more than be outweighed by the in-creasd convenience to the rest of theCemmunity. '

The Registrar's Office is not the soleoffender. Another particlarly bad situa-tion occurs at the Office of LaboratorySupplies stockroom on the fourth floor ofBuilding 4. Here the main supply roomfor the organic iabs is also closed fromnoon to one. This really hurts the under-graduates who take 5.412, the first termorganic lab course. These students areallowed the hours of 12 noon to 5 pnmone day each week to complete a longand rigorous experiment, yet the firsthour of this period is often partiallywasted because they cannot sign neededequipment out of the stockroom.

To add to the confusion, the linewhich forms at 1 pm, made up of num-erous research associates and studentswho need equipment for their after-noon's work, is often long enough to addan even longer wait for the would-bechemists.

We- hope these and other offices willsgriously consider extending their vitalservices over the noon hour.

Editorial poelicyRealizing its respansibflity to the

MIT community, Volume 86 of The Techwill attempt to present original and con-structive editorial viewpoints on theevents and issues of the coming year.

Unsigned editorials will directly pre-sent the views and opinions of the Editor,Chuck Kolb '67, and his Editorial Associ-ate, Jeff Stokes '68. The opinions of TheTech's complete Board of Directors willalso be represented. Editorial policy can-not and will not be allowed to be dictatedbye any individual or group other thanthis Board.

The opinions of the student body andstaff of the Institute, as well as those ofthe general public, are eagerly solicited.Comment on editorials, The Techa in gen-eral, or issues of interest may be sub-mitted in the form of letters to The Techby mailing said comments to PO Box 29,-MIT Branch, Cambridge, Mass., 02139(US Mail) or Room W20-483 (LnstituteMail). We request that letters be reason-ably coherent, readable, as concise aspossible, and signed. Names will be with-held on lequest.

In addition to letters, the editorialpages of The Tech are open to signededitorials by any member of the MNTcommunity. Such editorials will be print-ed if, in the opinion of the Editor andthe Board of Directors, they are wellwritten, represent an interesting and legi-timate vieapoint, and refrain from un-due slander.

We hope to present editorial com-ment on a wide variety of topics rangingfrom the s"mall pains of life at the Insi-tute (see Out to lunch) to major issuesaffecting MIT and or colleges, students,and our life in general. We hope you willread and react.

C Out to lunchMIYT, like any other busy place, -has

its share of minor day to day annoyancesdesigned to tlt the average person's pa-

. tience. One of the worst of these pettyproblems is caused by usually efcientand helpful Institute offices which simply

6. Three MIT professors wereamong 29 American scientistsande physicians from Harvardand other nearby institutionswho condemn the use of crop-destroying chemicals by Amer.ican forces in Vietnam. US air-craft had sprayed rice cropswith a "commercial weedkiller,identical with a popular brandthat many Americans spray ontheir lawns." The chemical is notpoisonous to humans but is cap-able of destroying 60 to 90 percent of the crop. The areas se.lected were of major militaryimportance where guerrilas grewtheir own food or where thepopulation was willingly com-miffed to their cause.

In proteesting the action, thestatement said that the attackswere "barbarous because theyindiscriminate." In addition, theyincrease the risk of other nationsusing chemical warfare. It con-cludes: "We urge the 'Presidentto proclaim publicly that theuse of such chemical weaponsby our armed forces is forbid-den, and to oppose their use bythe South Vietnamese or any ofour allies."

4, A Puerto Rican snail weigh-ing 1.2 grams has a maximumstrength of .40X I0 to the minus6 horsepower. A quick calcula-tion informs us fhat it would re-quire a mere 25 million snails toproduce one horsepower. Thisastute fact was determined byMIT scientists who measuredthe little dynamos by fifing{hem with tiny harnesses andtraining them to pull small loadsin a "snail training arena."

This information is far fromuseless, however, fo the 100million people around the worldafflicted with schistosomiasis, adebilitating disease transmittedby snails. In Egypt about 90 percent of the population sufersfrom the disease contractedfrom the snails, which abound inthe canals of the Nile Riverirrigation system. The studiesshowed that the snails cannotkeep a foothold in the bed of astream or canal if the watermoves with a velocity of 1.3miles per hour. Proper engineer-ing of canals will dislodge thesnails and thus eliminate thedisease,

It is unthikable that a schoolwhere analysis (the search for"why" and "how" rather thanmerely for "what," "where," and

By Jeff WeissmanThree professms left Washing-

ton December 3, 1965, to obtaina closer look at Russian scienti-fic and technological education.Each professor studied the Sovatsystem in his respective field. Dr.Frederic E. Termam, fromStanford, was especialy interestedin electronics. Prof. Norman C.Dahl of MifT looked into mechan-ical engineering, and Prof. Alex-ander G. Korol from MIT's Cen-ter for International Studies ex-amined the more general aspectsof politics and adminstratfion.

Their visit was arranged by ltheUnited States Office of Educationas part of a two year cultural ex-change agreement in theater,music, education, government, andother areas. The trip ended De-cember 28, after the professorshad visited schools in Moscow,Leningrad, and Kiev.

Three types of schoolsSpecifically, they saw eight ad-

ministrafive departments of edu-cation, four secondary schools,four techrnical schools of sub pro-fessional skills, and nine ititu-tions of higher educatiu. In theUSSR, higher education is dividedinto three types of schools-c, -leges for teaching, Universities

gineering sch .Thee are some basic aspects

of the Soviet system of general,centrally adminstrated education.First, here is a national quota-not only at each institution, butin each department of each insti-tution.

Secondly,, Russian educationdoes not include the study oflibeal arts. A student must Studyto become a professional in aparticular field, unlike in theUnited States. This explains whythe USSR can produce more phys-icists, mathematicians, and cheinm-ists than the Unilted States, froma wmaller number of studerts.

Recombining old coursesThirdly, the USSR is comsolidat-

ing courses from the over-special-ization of the 1V30's. For example,there were seven different typesof degrees in welding engineer-ing at that time, and there is nowonly one.

Fourth, in return for a fee ed-ucation at college (with stipendsif needed), one was pledged towork at least thfree years in thatfield. Today, it is possible tochange -fields, though few do itbecause of habit and the need foradditional education if a switchis made.

Opportunity comes early at Ford Motor Company.Graduates who join us are often surprised at howquickly they receive personal assignments involv-ing major responsibilities. This chance to dem-onstrate individual skills contrasts sharply withthe experience of many young people entering thebusiness world for the first time. At Ford MotorCompany, for example, a graduate may initiate aproject and carry it through to its final develop-mento One who knows is David Tenniswood, ofour research staff.

Dave joined Ford Motor Company in July, 1961.Assigned to our steering and controls section, he helped develop a revolu-tionary steering system that will facilitate driving in future Ford-built cars.Currently a design engineer working on suspension design and analysis,Dave has been impressed by the extent to which management encouragespersonal initiative among recent graduates like himself. Here, managementlooks immediately to young engineers, like Dave, for fresh concepts thatreflect. their academic training and special abilities. Moreover, when theidea is accepted for development, the initiator is frequently given theopportunity to see the job through-from drawing board to production line!

The experience of Dave Tenniswood is not unusual. Ford Motor Companybelieves that early incentive is fundamental to individual growth and aSler-,actel Furorv TNfo t r++ e ektc bhlcges yo-ur abl"Wessucc sa M 'aw~ . Ify ou are in ter -ed j. jobI. tha tLL %JI~kLe I 1

Stiff competitionFifith, there is tremendous com-

petition to receive high gradesbecause of admissions procedures.Moreover, a stdent is allowedonly one application to a schoolof higher education per year-andthen only to one department ofthe school. Sometimes ten appli-cants will apply for one position,many of whom may have themaximum score of five points oneach of five entrance exams. AsProf. Dahl stated, "That is sinm-ilar to Scoring straight 800s on theCollege Board Examns." There is,however, a lack of applicants insome areas, such as tea ng.

Sixth, the USSR has an enorm-ous number of part-time and cor-respondence schools which at-count for 53% of Russian educa-tion. Thes types of education became popular for Russian soldiersreturning after World War II andcontinued to grow through the1950's. However, they are inher-ently inferior to full-time educa-tion, and the government is striv-ing for more of the latter in thefuture. An important facet ofpart-timne study is that the onlyfield one may study is the one heis presently engaged in. Prof.Korol explained, "If you areworking as a bookkeeper, youcan't Rtudy physics part-time; youcan only become a better book-keeper."

Recent trendWith these basic characteristics

of Soviet education, it is possibleto see the recent trends ofchange. In 1958, Krushchev initi-ated a program "to bring schoolcloser to real life." Basically,this meant an acceleration ofstudy in the fields of practicalscience and technoAmlogy.

students, deserve other thanpraise). One exception to this pro-blem has always been the candi-

-gressive athletic program in the>- United States. Some recent new< ideas (e.g., varsity football; wom-

en's participation in their ownu_ varsity, intra-mural, and physical

education programs; a programfor graduate students) have notraised the slightest ripple of de-

- bate in The Tech. We have eight-2 een varsity teams, several ofLU

which are, at this present mom-Lu ent, failing to live up to greatI potential. There is serious doubt

whether one of our varsity teamsshould even exist as anythingmore than a club. No hint of suchproblems, no criticism of coach-es, no denigration of individualplayers' performances or atti-tudes, no discussion of the pres-sures of the MIT academic sys-tem upon the athletic system everappears in your pages.

And so on.It's not particularly a matter of

controversy. It's more a matterof enlightened interest and in-volvement. It's a matter of alittle more sweat and persistenceand dedication.

The quality of The Tech overthe last several years seems toindicate that its staff does notaspire to make it the best oranything close to the best amongAmerica's college newspapers.The MIT community has the rightto expect more.

The MrrIT Faculty Club will hosta meeting between the BostonSchool Committee and the Metro-politan Council for Education Op-portunities ( TCO) February 18at 5 p.m. to discuss ETICO's pro-posal to Ibus about 250 "disadvan-taged youngsters" to schools inthe suburbs.

Will meet openmindedlyAssociate Professor of aeronau-

Trilling said that no formalagenda has been drawn up for themeeting and that the situation willbe discussed in a "free and easyway."

Not unanimousTrilling admitted, however, that

the Boston conummittee would notbe unanimous in the acceptanceof hETCO's proposal. "Some willbe for it and sone will rnot," Tri-ling stated.

Born at a December, 1965, meet-ing, IVIE'CO is composed of schoolcommittee and administrativemembers of various school sys-tems in the Greater Boston area.OMrCO will soon submit a pro-

Reserved seatsTo the Editor:

This morning (January 23) Iwent to the Student Center LIbra-

ry and was very surprised to seethat all the desks were occupied.Not all those diligent tools weretooling in person, however; somehad gone home for a well-deservedrest, but had left books and pa-pers to continue their studies forthem, all through the night andearly morning. It truly was heart-ening to see an entire library fill-'ed with students or their proxiesat such an ambitious hour o themorning! But I just decided to gohomne and wait until the ScienceLibrary opened, where I mightbe able to find the books I needed.i guess I prefer the more old-fashioned type of books - thosewhich merely wait in proper arrayon old-fashioned shelves!

No LSD-25To the Editor:

In regard to your article in theFriday, January 14, 1966 issueof The Tech concerning' the al-leged hallucinogenic drug, LSD-25, we have the following infor-mation to pass on to you and theMIT community from our re-search department.

LSD-25 does 'not exist.The DIRECTORS,

The Bardo Corporation(We suspect that the Bardo

Corporation does not exist.)

W'ith thi s one exception,

GT&E blankets the world of electronics.GT&E makes no effort to competewith nature's awesome forces. Butwe do the next best thing. We takethe reason for lightning and har-ness it to everyday tasks.

In that way, we've helped tomake the lowly electron mighty.And our own capabilities more ex-tensive.

In fact, we've made electronicsan important force in our business.And branched into virtually alldirections electronics would takeus... communications, radio, TV,

stereo phonographs, automaticsupervision and control, and ad-vanced military systems.

GT&E member companies, suchas Automatic Electric, LenkurtElectric and Sylvania, either man-ufacture the complete equipmentor the electronic components fromwhich they're built. And at thesame time serve as major suppliers

to other electronic manufacturersand the communications industry.

You might say that, because ofelectronics, GT&E's possibilitiesare endless. That's the way it looksfrom where we sit.

If you're interested in getting acomplete picture of GT&E as it istoday, ask your Placement Direc-tor for a copy of the booklet thattells the story. Or write GeneralTelephone& Electronics, 730 ThirdAvenue, New York, N.Y. 10017.

t material. close to relevant labora-- tories and faculli offices. They- allow each department to better, guide the library in its particular

field. Individual libraries allow- field oriented direction and tech-

I nical administration.-Many of the present divisionsin our libraries are historical.Hopefully the Institute will recog-

tize the CtlTent needs of the MtTcommunity and consider the pos-sibility of a new building whichmight allow arrangement of thelibraries in a more sensiblescheme. Perhaps the currentstudy of Project INTREX - In-formation Retrieval and Exchange- can be put to use in such anew facility.

Smoking

Cigarette and cigar smoke usedto be a serious problem in theReserve Book Room. The StudentCenter Reading Room has re-lieved overcrowding in this li-brary, and the smoke is not near-ly so dense. However, if any stu-dents still believe that smokingis making any library uncom-fortable, he should leave a notein the SCIEP mailbox, StudentCenter, Room 401.

New scholahrshiphonors technician

MIT has esltablished a scholar-ship in memory of Arthur C. Reid,of Avon, Mass., a young techni-cian killed in a laboratory ex-plosion and fire last summer.

Dr. Charles H. Townes, Provost,said the scholarship honors Reid,who died of injuries suffered whena blast ripped through the exper-imental hall of the CambridgeElectron Accelerator July 5. Sev-en others were injured in the ex-plosion.

Dr. Townes said first prefer-ence for the Reid Scholarship willbe given to students from thetown of Avon who are qualifiedby academic preparation andachievement for admission toMIT. Second preference will begiven to qualified students fromthe four neighboring towns ofBrockton, Stoughton, Randolph,and Holbrook. The scholarship,like most others at MIT, providesa variable amount toward tuition,depending on the student's finan-cial needs.

At the time of the fatal acci-dent, Reid was assisting in an ex-perimental project being carriedout at the CEA by a team ofMIT physicists. Reid was near thebubble chamber which was filledwith liquid hydrogen, when theblast occurred.

Catalogue changesSCEP received many queries

about the cumbersome cataloguesystem. Mlany students still donot realize that we are changingfrom the old Dewey Decimal sys-tem to the new Library of Con-gress clasfication. This systemis better adapted to technical lit-erature, is more efficient, andshould avoid the ambiguities thatsometimes occurred in the Deweysystem. Fo several years we willhave to look up books and sub-jects in both the new and old cardcatalogues. This small inconven-ience is necessary and unavoid-able, yet it is worthwhile in thelong run.

Central libraryMany students question the sys-

tem of a decentralized library.They argue that a division be-tween engineering and sciencecollections is arbitrary. Such anarrangement is at best inconven-ient, and at worst detrimental totheir studies and research. Withthe growth of interdisciplinaryfields, it seems disadvantageousto place a quarter mile betweenscience and engineering, biologyand psychology, and history andpolitical science. Further, the cat-alogues in each specialized li-brary are only for that collectionand do not refer to relevant ma-terial elsewhere in the librarysystem.

Gawnd eieintstsThe U. S. Navy Marine Engineering Lab-oratory conducts RDT&E in naval ship-board and submarine machinery andauxiliary systems (electrical, propulsion,control, etc.). In addition to developingbasic improvements in performance andreliability, the Laboratory concentrates onship silencing, new concepts in energyconversion and control, ways to minimizefriction and wear, special operating ma-chinery for deep-diving vessels; and tough,resistant naval alloys to meet all oceanenvironmental conditions.

The Laboratory buildings-nroow morethan 50 of them-house some of the finestresearch, experimental and evaluationequipments of their kind, such as high-speed computers, electric power generators,vibration and shock test stands, metalscomposition analysis instruments, cryo-genic storage and handling facilities, phys-ics and chemistry labs, and complex in-strumentation for measuring strain, stress,pressure, acceleration, velocity, perform-ance, and reliability. The Laboratorygrounds resemble a modern industrialpark, and include special facilities forin-field experimentation.

And the locale is ideal. Washington,Baltimore and the ocean resorts are nomore than one hour's drive. Annapolis it-self is the state capital, and offers small-city living with metropolitan' accessibility.

Urgent new projects require additionalengineering and scientific personnel withBS, MS, and PhD degrees.

By John Corwvin the first working day of the week, are the two days introduced.Endorsed by Mass.

The Calendar has been officiallyendorsed by te Legislatures ofHawaii and ssachusetts, 'andthe business world would look for-ward to great increased efficiencyin bookkeeping were it to beadopted. The US Congress and theUnited Nations have each -beenasked to adopt it as the next in-temational civil calendar.

Ends confusionAnother feature of the perpetual

calendar will be elimination ofconfusion such as that which arose234 years ago with the birth ofGeorge Washington--nr February11' This date is according to an"old-style" calendar whose con-fusion dates back to the days ofSulius Caesar.

Hoidays

The new calendar would havestandardized holidays, such asEaster IMordtay (April 15), LaborDay (Septemnber 4), and ChristmasDay (Monlday, Dec. 25)- In addi-tion, Kamehameha Day, Monday,June 11, would make six annual3-day holidays in Hawaii.

The originator, Willard Edwxd,majored in electrical engineeringwhen he attended the Institute,and presently lives in' Honolulu,Hawaii.

"zis calendar has more three- and end on Sunday, the last dayday weekends than any other cur-rent proposal," claims Willard E.Edwards, MIT '26, originator -of"Th'e Perpetual Calendar."

The Calendar is a proposal fora new 12-nmonth equal-quarter in-ternational civil calendar whichwould remain identical from yearto year. Each quarter would con-sist of 91 days, (broken into two30-day months and one 31-daymonth; the 365th day would beNew Year's Day, an internationalholiday preceding Monday, Janu-ary 1.

Quarters Identical

All quarters begin on Monday,

of the weekend. This is particular-ly helpful for ,busesses and bank-ing. In addition, the first and 15thof each month always falls on aweekday, and there is never aFriday the-13th.

M eap Yar Day

Once every four years theremust ibe another day in the year,and it would occur :between Sun-day, June 31 and ,Monday, July 1,forming a three-day weekend, andnamed Leap Year Day.

The separation of New Year'sDay and Leap Year Day is neces-sary to keep the rest of the yearstandard, and only for this reason

Thlirty-twao Am erica's top 100songs of 16 were performed byBrktish artists. The number ofBritish tries malig it big in Bri-tain is of course even greater; infact, duirng the last six m is"I ot You Babe" ani "1-2-3"have been the only nmBritishdiscs to him the nwber one spotidx~~mTe.

copies in Britain and the time ofopauarity for -these songs was

virtually the same in the twoourcltieS. Paul McCartney's ver-sion of "Yesterday" did not makeit in Britain, thoughi, probably be-cause of its inlusion in the Bri-,tish "Help" album. Matt Monroe'sversion of "Yesterday" did makeit to numir six there. Althoughneither "Satiffaction" nor "GetOff of My Cloud" sold a rrfflion inBritain, they both were numberone there for three weeks. Bothmade it in America severai weeksearlier than in Britai.

Oi~ major difference betweenthe two countries concerns thepopularity of the Righteous Bro-thers and Walker'Brther.s. Bothare white US groups who singsimilar soul sounds; the formerare from Caifornia and the latterfrom Texas. Despite their simil-arities, the Righteous Brothers arebig in the US, while the WalkerBrothers can do no wrong in Bri-tain: The following listig of re-cent hits by the two with theirAmerican and 'Britis peaks ex-emplifies t.he dferenee:Unchained Melody-RB 4 14Ebbtide-RB 5-Make it Easy Ynrself-WB 16 2My Ship s Cbm/C I-WB 71 4

It is not uncommon for a Bri-tish song to be a big lbt in Britinwhile doing nothing in the US.Three examples which receivedsome airplay in Boston with theirAmerican and Brtish peaks are'*Who's My Generation" (74, 3),Chris Andrews' "Yesterday Man"(94, 2), and the Seekers' "ThetCarnival is Over" (105, 1). The

latter was one of the four recordsof E to esel! over a mllion inBritain.

Dodd's big hitThe epitome of is difference

is Ken Dodd's version of-"Tears."With British sales of nearly 1.5milhon, this tune was B3ritain'sbiggest song of 19%5. It was ninn-her one there for six weels, onthe top ten for seventeen, and isstill on the top thirty after twenty-two weeks, an unheard-of periodof time in either the BrEtish orAmerican markets of today.

The song, a gentle ballad ori-ginally recorded by Rudy Valleein 1929, hit a peak of 107 in theUS while makng it into the mid-twenties for WBZ. Bobby Vintonrecordd a version of the song recently; this gives some indicationof the type of song it, is. Briti shofficials believe that it-was pri-marily aduts who were respon-sible for its success,

The obvious implica-tion is that our MIT student willgraduate with a degree in engin-eering and be snapped up byUncle Sam.

thesis to this, that we suspect thewriters must have peeked at itbefore writing the script. Thefilm seems more like a work offiction than a documentary. Itconcentrates most of its attentionon an MIT coed, who is torn be-tween a career as a professionalmusician and that of a scientist.

MIT as a truly versatile institu-tion, where one can obtain a wellrounded education.

This may be true, but the over-emphasis on the humanities atMIT, and neglect of the majorareas of interest, science and en-gineering, seem to suggest thatthe film - makers were a trifleself - conscious of MIT's image.

These films both show what canhappen when a group attemptsto make a film with pre - con-ceived ideas about the subject,and, therefore, fail to give animpartial and balanced look atthe MIET community.

oratory has a Towing Basin 3/5 of a mile long, 50 feet wide,and 20 feet deep; a Mlaneuvering Basin that covers 5 acres.The Applied Mathematics Laboratory uses four high-speeddigital computers to solve engineering and logistic problems.The ultra-high-speed UNIVAC LARC performs 250,000 compu-tations per second. The Aerodynamics Laboratory is equippedwith nine wind tunnels, subsonic, transonic, supersonic, hy-personic, for the testing of aircraft, missile and airborne com-ponent models. Ten pressure tanks, and tensile and compres-sive load testing machines are among the devices used by theStructural Mechanics Laboratory in research on hull structuresfor ships, deep-diving submarines and deep-sea researchvehicles. Mechanical generators in the Acoustics and Vibra-tion Laboratory can produce known forces in structures rang-ing from small items of machinery to complete ships.5. The management of the Model Basin is interested in yourprofessional development. it provides you with the oppor-tunity to receive financial assistance and time (up to 8 hours aweek) to attend classes at one of the six major universities inthe immediate area, which offer courses in virtually everyfield. In addition, a number of graduate courses are conductedat the Model Basin. Under a new program, several employeesare now engaged in full or 3/4-time advanced academic studyand receiving full salary as well as all their expenses.6. At the David Taylor Model Basin, you can reach the$10,000 to $12,000 level within four years. In addition, as aCivil Service employee, you get generous vacations and sickleave, inexpensive life and health insurance, and enjoy thebenefits of an unusually liberal retirement program.7. Within minutes of the Model Basin are the suburbs ofMaryland and Virginia offering excellent living conditions, un-usual recreational facilities, and some of the best public schoolsystems in the country. Because the Washington area is a cen-ter for-scientific research as well as for government, it boasts alarge concentration of people of intellectual and cultural attain-ments. Washington, D. C. with its museums, art galleries,libraries and points of historical interest is just 12 miles fromthe Model Basin.

Coming back to competitionstale after a long layoff for finalsand intercession and meeting oneof their toughest foes of the sea-son, the MIT fencing team droppeda 20-7 decision to Harvard in ahome meet.

Harvard completely dominatedthe match, winning six of nineepee matches, seven of nine sa-ber matches and seven of ninefoil matches. Most of the matcheswere very close but the Techfencers just could never score thatfifth touch when the Chips weredown.

One bright spot for the Tech-men was Burton Rothberg '68.Burt was a foil man before thismatch and had won eleven of histwelve previous matches. Switch-ing to epee for this meet, he wontwo of his three matches, a re-markable feat.

The team's next match is awayI against Army tomorrow. Perhapsthe squad will regain its winningform again. Up to now the teamhad only lost two games and itshould go on to a successful sea-son, even against the top teams inthe east on their schedule likeCCNY. Their season is climaxedby the New England meet March2.

The opening minutes of the con-test were marked .by sloppy playon both sides. Guard Bob Ferrara'67 scored the first four pointsfor l fIT with two 20 foot jumpshots. But then the smaller Hart-ford club began outhustling theBeavers off the backboards andslowly pulled away to a 12-8 leadwith 13:20 left in the first half.

began to slow up their offense,keeping the ball on the outsideand trying to break loose theirstar guard, Gary Palladino, whohas been averaging 26 points pergame. However, Tech's zone de-fense prevented them from get-ting the ball into Palladino, whiletwo field goals by Dave Jansson'68 and a jumper by senior JackMazola gave MIT a 22-19 advan-

The two main items of businessat the recent Athletic Associationmeeting were nominations for newofficers and a discussion of foot-,ball's future at MIT. The meetingopened withn announcement thattwo new IM sports had been ad-ded: water polo and pocket bil-liards. Ts brings the total IMprogram to 19 §ports.

The nominations as follows:Piresident-Greg Jerrell '67 andGeorge Jones '67. The only nora-

gion for secretary was GerryBanner '68.

The discussion of football center-ed around three points. The firstto be broght up was that footballwould detract from other sports,because of the number of menneeded to fore a team. But it wasalso pointed out that there arequite a few potental football play-ers at M1IT who do nothing in theway of athletics in the fall. Fbot-ball would also take a largeamount of space which is present-ly used for MW practice and fallpractice in spring sports. But itwas felt that the people who prac-tice regularly for IM footballwould probably want to go outfor the varsity football team. Onthis note, the meeting was ad-}ourned. F decision on footballwill rest with the Athletic AdvisoryBoard meeing next week.
