le of My1 s - rae problem"Where do we stand?" was the question put forward to the second

scomm panel discussion Tuesday. The panel 'and audience attempted.shed light on the role of MIT in solving the race problems of the

antry and race problems in its own corridors..participating in the' panel were Bernard Freiden, associate0ofessor of City Planning, Jeromne Wiesner, Provost, Roland B.eely, Director of Admissions, Leon Trilling, Professor of Aero-tics, Maria Kivisild '69, Shirley Jackson '68, and Robert Tinker,

paduate student in physics.

Cites effortsFrieden spoke first, ex-

pressing his opinion that MI'Ihad already made severalmoves in the direction of aid-ing the Negro's plight in the

qBoston area. He cited the ef-:forts of the Social ServiceCommittee, the Science DayCamp, and the Cambridge Cor-Mporation. Frieden then pointed

gout that MIT had- also beeninvolved in hiring building

icontractors who practicedunfair employment.

Greeley then brought up theiadmission policies. He saidtthat helping Negro students:from deprived areas in a fivepvear program as at Yale hadobeen considered but never im-

!plemented. Trilling, who hasiworked with the problem ofthe problem of Negro enroll-ment at MIT, then gave somestatistics concerning negroapplicants.

Negroes accepted.He pointed out that over a

third of the applications sub-imitted by Negroes each yearWare accepted. The admission.'office has taken nine coloredstudents this year it wouldnot ordinarily have taken, he

Wadded. Trilling also mentioned,a proposal to conduct an ex-iperimental program over thesummer for 20 or 30 high schoolNegroes to aquaint them withthe university environment.He said that the Institute hadalso considered a program tobring 100 students to MIT fora year to prepare them for for-Imal college education here orelse where.

Course IV students build memorial exhibitBy Mitchell Serota

The memorial to Dr. Martin Luther King that occupied the Kresge lawn this week was designed inan effort to allow opinions about the racial situation to flow freely. In response to the assassination,the memorial was conceived and organized by Steve Leff '68, Arthur Stern '68, John Terry '68, UAPMaria Kivisild '69, and Associate Professor Karl Linn, Department of Architecture. The structureswere prepared Monday night and set up on the grass Tuesday morning, in time for the memorial services.Notable attractions were geraniums to plant in a small flower bed and comment boards.

The exhibit plans were begun Sunday and given support by professor Jerome Wiesner, provost, andDeans Robert Holden and Lawrence Anderson, Department of Architecture. Support was also receivedfrom numerous on- and off-campus organizations who ran booths; from dozens of students and facultywho worked through the night; and from the physical plant staff who were always willing to help.

The memorial is a part ofa thesis being done by Leff,Stern, and Terry which in-volves experiments in environ-ment. If members of the collegecommunity can contribute totheir campus environment, thestudents believe, they canfeel more a part of MIT. The

', l~g~b~q~i~j · thesis is not a single event,but includes such divers ac-

:~1' ' tionas redesigning the Bursar'soffice in Building 10, as wellas establishing a booth in thelobby of that building wherecoffee and doughnuts will beavailable, and,- hopefully, dis-cussions will take place, Theseexperiments will establish aprocess for students to parti-cipate in the growth of theirenvironment, and perhaps willspread this idea to other cam-puses,

The exhibit proved a greatsuccess, as all major Bostonpapers as well as UPI and

Cambridge, Mass.. Friday, April 12. 1968 AP took note,

death.The panel was chaired by

Professor Walter Rosenblith,Chairman of the Faculty. Mem-bers included Professors PhilipMorrison, Physics; Williard John-son, Political Science; LeonardFein, Political Science; ThomasMahoney, Humanities. RichardKline, a research assistant, andAl Silverstone, a graduate stud ent,also sat on the panel.

"Following King's example"Introducing the panel, Prof.

Rosenblith stated, "This morn-ing will have failed if we do notact in the fallen prophet's ex-ample," and quoted from thereport of the Advisory Commis-sion on Civil Disorders: "Ournation is moving towards twosocieties, one black, one white,separate and unequal." It is ourtask to avoid this polarizationof society."

Prof. Morrison .traced thehistory of the "profound meaningof polymorphism in man," andpredicted the eventual re-mixingof the races as a product of themachine age. He called for anapproach to race problems 'incool reason and warm dedication,so that we can proceed withhope."

Reestablish law: KlineGreatest audience reaction

was achieved by Kline's speech.He called for a reexamination ofthe law, not as an instrument ofoppression, but as "the onlyway to secure the fabric ofsociety," and predicted "furtherviolence and assassinations"if the law were further scorned.

Noting that in the past groupssuch as the KKK and the Mafiahave used violence to achievetheir own ends, Kline predicteda "proliferation of disobediance"by other minority groups in thesame tradition. He called forrespect for the law in all walksof life, specifically mentioningprotection of ghetto businessmen,

support of the police, and a'presentation of the Negro by themass media, not as a "problem,but as a human being."

The greatest sensation of theday was produced when Klinestated: "We must reject dema-gogues with cheap, slick solu-tions, such as George Wallace,Stokely Carmichael - and BobbyKennedy."

Kline that change should comeonly within the law, stating thathe was not sure that the lawwas still sufficient to give theNegro full equality. Fein com-mented on the change from "prej-udice" to "racism" in the lastten years, which he said wasan admission that "the problemis embedded in our institutions-we support an institutional en-

Silverstone, followed with adramatic statement in which heaccused "racism" of ''continuingto murder Dr. King's dream." Hegave a definition of racism inbroad social and economic terms,ranging from high infant mortalityamong Negroes to the whitepolice force, which he, saidshould be withdrawn from theghetto. He citied the low collegeattendance of Negroes as amajor problem, and called for aparallel MIT education for atleast 200 black students.

Problem in institutionsProf. Fein disagreed with

vironment which brutalizes theNegro." He denied that des-truction was the answer, however,calling it "wholesale flailing"rather that the "necessarysurgery for cancer."

Lettvin, Pollack commentThe question-and-answer

period which followed thespeeches featured comments byRabbi Pollack-"we must knowhow and why change takes placeand how it is resisted"-andProf. LettOvin, who called Dr.King "the man who voiced theuniversal 'no' against injustice,wherever it happened."

MIT donned a hair shirt at 9 am Tuesday;most of MIT took it off at 1 pm the same day.While no poll was taken at the-door of Kresgeat Tuesday's Inscomm seminars, it would be

interesting to know what portion of the aud-ience went out of a subconscious desire to do"penance" by sitting through a four hourmeeting instead of sleeping all morning.

We consider it highly unlikely that anyaction remotely comparable to the hopes mostof the audience carried into Tuesday's meet-ing will be forthcoming from the MIT com-

munity; universities polarized around scienceare just not set up to undertake a commitment

for social change of the magnitude needed toproduce major. effects. Like the emotionalresponse to the assassination of John F.Kennedy, Tuesday's feeling of commitment

will soon give way to business as usual forall but the few in the MIT community who werealready participating in the struggle before

the assassination. The architecture studentswho organized the construction of the mem-orial in front of the Student Center did notappear to have too much difficulty in getting

workers -for their ambitious undertaking; itwill be interesting to see, however, how muchhelp they will receive when it comes time todismantle these structures -and Tuesday'semotional "high" has worn off.

Between platitudes, a few good ideas didcome out of the meetings Tuesday. The Ad-mission Office's program to bring promisingNegroes -on campus for a summer of intensivepreparation before considering them for ad-

mission is a small step in the right direction,as are the various proposals for constructiveuse of the. Institute's investment funds and theprograms for encouraging more extensiveemployment of Negroes. In the coming months,The Tech will endeavor to follow these pro-posals to see what sort of action will comeof Tuesday's words; we trust the MIT com-munity will not lose all interest in the pro-blems discussed so earnestly this week.

It is sad that we have waited until- thedeath of Martin Luther King to decide, asInscomm put it, "Where do we stand?" It iseven sadder, however. that most ofthe MITcommunity will still stand just where it has

been standing all along. sC

day: "How many men must diebefore we can really have afree and true and peacefulsociety? How long will ittake?"' The crowd gave noanswer, but the very survivalof this nation as a democracydepends on white America'sresponse.

On the night before hisdeath, Martin Luthor King de-clared "that we as a peoplewill get to the promised land."The one encouraging thingtoday is the strength of theblack man. The march ir-Mem-phis and the events of Tuesdaywere moving tributes to thedetermination and spirit ofblack America. With the looka black madonna, Mrs. King'sdisplay of quiet courage wasa symbol of the entire non-violent movement, and allthatis the best in America. If any-thing, the Negro must be su-perior'.

Last Thursday, Dr. Kingdeclared: "I've been to themountaintop. Mine eyes haveseen the glory of the. comingof the Lord." Monday Dr. RalphAbernathy continued this theme."This I know. This I know.This I knowo..We shall be free,If Jesus leads the way, I shallbe free some day." The ringingsound of these words shouldmove all men lof good spiritand brotherhood to a rededica-tion to equality and justice forall Americans. An event fourand a half years ago called forthis same rededication, butAmerica failed that test. Itcannot afford the luxury of asecond failure. There is nonext time. Though both meninvoked religious symbols, asJohn Kennedy said, "Here onearth, God's work must truly beour own."

Tuesday was a day to beblack. If Negroes are willingto call themselves Americans,then Tuesday made me proudto do likewise. In Dr. King'soan words, "I want you to saythat I tried to love and servehumanity." Let us all striveto have the same said of us.

(Washington, DC, April 10)Staring from my hotel window inmidtown Washington, I see ariot-torn city. And beyond,there is a battle-scarred nationcaught in the midst of impend-ing racial war. Never has itbeen more obvious that there isa deep, dark, tangled thread ofhatred and violence prevadingour land. Racial violence hasjust touched more than 112American cities and at least35 Americans are dead, butMr. Cyrus Vance can still takegreat pride in "our ability torestore law and order in Wash-ington, DC."

Come, let us reason andadmit together; ours is a sicksociety. It is a house dividedagainst itself and as such itcannot stand. This is the great-est lesson to learn from thispast week and not the manylessons about suppressingdisorder that Mr. Vance is soproud of citing.

Dr. King's death only con-firms the views of the Presi:dent's Commission on CivilDisorder that the basic causeof America's domestic strife iswhite racism. As much asleaders like Johnson and Hum-phrey try to deny this theme, it

blows as loud as the trumpetsat Jericho. To turn a deaf earwould be suicidal.

This country seems to takegreat pride in its ability togather itself together and meetthe sternest tests of will. Butthis time the test is greaterthan all others. This is theissue: can this society survivethe next year without massivebloodletting and finally guaran-tee all of the fruits of de-mocracy to all of its citizens?Today a favorite pastime isreminding the American peopleof their commitments. Thegreatest one is the commitmentto the people of this nation,our fellow Americans andfellow human beings.

In this political year, therehas been much talk of a nation-al reconciliation. I have reachedthe sad conclusion that thiswill not do. We cannot reconcileourselves to this society. Thecommon -denominator is toolow. White America is going tosee things through the eyes ofthe black man. The message isclear and every black man inthis nation knows it.-It is timefox white men to "see it likeit is."

Although Inscomm's colloquium on MIT's role in combating,racism was thought-provoking, informative and arousing, its spedtouched almost solely upon the Institute's role as a corpo0r'rather than as a place of learning; , and they did come up-even so tangible an idea as MIT High, which came out of theWMyth conference.

I propose that we look at MIT's role as an educational ins'~tion and attempt there to serve the ideals and aims of Dr.e-Luther King. That is, I think we should seriously ponder the fithat there are only two courses-in the entire institute which~actively with the problems of the center cities and of blackAQ.1cans. :f~

Inasmuch, then, as the problem of the Negro American is mea part of the larger problems of American society, the creatioan entire department of social inquiry-perhaps as a section ithe humanities department-might be an even more suitable mnorial to Dr. King.

Campuses commemorate KiangBy John Gerth

In observance of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King,learly all Boston area schools held commemorative services andictivities. Northeastern University cancelled - classes Friday,Monday and Tuesday. On Friday about 300 students marched to PostDffice Square and held a protest rally.

Monday at noon a Memorial Service was held in Alumni Auditorium,About 1000 persons heard NU's President Asa Knowles, Bill Hunt)f the Resistance, and Henry Cabarius of the Black Students Unionspeak on Dr. King and racism in America. The next day studentswere free to attend the Memorial services at Harvard, and on Wed-lesday all classes could be turned into workshops at the request)f the students

Boston UniversityThe reaction at BU took the form of discussion groups, rallies,

protests, and committees. Classes were cancelled on Monday and~Tuesday, while Wednesday, classes could be turned into discussionsfby vote of the students. Tuesday night an ad hoc committee of aboutt300 was formed and presented a long list of resolutions. For example,Ithey want the School of Nursing renamed in Dr. King's honor, aibranch of BU in Roxbury, 100 additional Black students, withdrawal~of funds from racially-tainted sources, and the establishment of a~Martin L. King chair in Ethics.

HarvardHarvard's Law School was closed on Monday amd Tuesday and

the rest of the school on Tuesday. Black students at Harvard heldseparate services calling the regular one a white sham. The BlackStudents also submitted demands asking for an endowed chair fora Black, courses relevant to Black students, more lower levelBlack faculty members, and admission of Black students in proportionto the US population.

(Continued from page 1)

Shirley Jackson then expressed her conviction that whateverMIT could possible do would be too trite for the extreme socialchange that is necessary. She then questioned whether society canpossibly change rapidly enough. Miss Jackson's comments touched -off a vigorous response from a Negro student in the audience. Hecharged that the whites in the audience were hypocrites and thatthe white man doesn't really feel what he says about the black man. 0He recieved an ovation from a segment of the audience. 2

Whites evade issueTinker, the final speaker, then charged that MIT was far behind

in attempting to help the Negro in America get a better educationand that the student body and administration lacked the interestthat is so necessary to make any progress. Tinker added that whitesIwere evading the issue by either saying that the whole problem wasfutile or that the blacks really don't want white help anymore. 6

The meeting ended with people in the audience expressing desireto organize- a group at MIT to give students a real chance to findout what they could do about racism.

"Well, that's the stereotype. When you look at the reality, things area lot different. (This is Gene Hodge, B.S.E.E., an IBM Manager inDevelopment Engineering.)

"IBM has over 300 locations. They believe in decentralization, andthey delegate the authority to go with it. To me, it's more like a lotof little companies than one big one.

"Take my own situation, for example. I act as a kind of entrepreneurfor my department. I decide if we should bid on certain governmentcontracts for my group. I also decide the proposal strategy and comeup with all the facts we need to set a bid price. Of course, upper man-agement reviews my decisions, but to a great extent I run my own show.

"Another thing that makes this like a small company is the close rela-tionship with your boss. You're almost always hired by the manager you'regoing to report to. And you work for him on your own or in a small team.It's part of his job to know your long term goals and-help you reach them.

"This same interest in the individual also shows up in IBM's educational pro-grams. I'm getting my Master's now, and IBM's paying the entire cost, and someof the class time is on company time. It makes it a lot easier to get your advanceddegree."

In the first home match ofet the season, the varsity tennisc- team lost to Harvard 6-1, Wed-

nesday afternoon. The matchwas much closer than the score

a indicates, however, as five ofcc the matches went to three sets.Lt

The performance was especial-ly encouraging in light of the

3I fact that Harvard had defeatedMIT 9-0 for four straight years.

Again the engineer's attackW ,was led by sophomores Bob1- RMcKinley and Manny Weiss.

McKinley faced Harvard's JohnLevin (a semi-finalist in lastyear's New Englands and nowprobably the top New Englandcollegiate player) on the firstcourt. Levin took the first setat 6-3; McKinley jumped ahead5-3 in the second, lost his ad-vantage, then won a series ofbaseline exchanges to take theset 8-6, Levin then played al-most errorless tennis and ranup a 5-1 advantage in the third.McKinley began to play moreaggressively and got back to5-4, but Levin was able to holdserve for the match.

Down on the sixth court,Weiss used his serve-volley

attack to grab the first set 6-3,nut Bruce Wiegand '69 of Har-vard started scoring with highlobs and effective passingshots. These kept Manny moreon the baseline and Wiegandeventually prevailed 3-6, 6-4,7-5.

At number four, Steve Dener-off '68 accounted for MIT'sonly victory, Steve took thefirst set 7-5, hitting deep tothe corners and taking the netbehind welloplaced approachshots. In the second set though,he pressed too hard; the ballsailed out and he lost six

straight games. In the third,Steve slowed down the paceand kept chipping away with asteady backhand to the comer,,often followed by an approachdown the line. His patiencepaid off: 7-5, 0-6, 6-4.

Doubles calledIn the doubles, McKinley

and Weiss blitzed through thefirst set 6-2. Levin and RockyJarvis '69, last year's runners-up in the New Englands, cameback 6-4 in the second. TheMIT sophomores got hot againin the third and were up 5-3,but Harvard held on. Thematch was halted at 6-6 due todarkness. Bob Metcalfe '68and Tom Stewart '69 likewisesurprised their Harvard oppon-ents. They split two long setsand the match was called at202 in the third.

Thus despite Wednesday'sdefeat and their 3-4 record, thetennis team is looking verystrong and should fare wellduring the coming weeks. Theirnext match is at home Saturdayagainst'Bowdoin.

IMy C unci sets goals,seeks increased interest

By Bob DresserAt last months election meeting control of the Intramural council

was turned over to Jeff Weissmann '69, as president, and to JoelHemmelstein '70, as secretary. The basic goal of Weissmann is toincrease and diversify the council.

Increased interestIt has been the opinion of many past members that only two or

three living groups had any interest in the organization of intramuralsports at MIT, and they left this ought to be changed. To accomplishthis Weissmann has proposed that a letter be mailed to all freshmeninforming them about the operation and control of IM sports. Further-more, he has hoped to get increased publicity for IM sports fromThe Tech.

Among the other concerns of Weissmann has been competitionbetween intramural champions of MIT and Harvard, and he his hopedto redefine the eligibility rules explicitly and judiciously. Finally,he would like to initiate a spring soccer tournament on the intra-mural level.

Executive committeeThe success of these endeavors will depend upon the efficiency

and ingenuity of Weissmann, Hemmelstein, and their executive com-mittee, to be elected at the next meeting. Since council meetingsare open, and because it is the desire of the present members of thecouncil to increase interest; it is hoped that all interested peopleattend the meeting in the Varsity Club lounge at 8:00 on Tuesday.

Competing against the best team in New England,they lost only 13-5 thanks particularly to PedroTaborga's scoring. The secondteam fared simi-larly, losing 8-0.
