.A formal but personal welcome we now extend to all parents;v attending MIT's third biannual Parents' Weekend.Imnpressed by MIT? Probably so; most people are, even beforeev see it for the first time. But during the course of the week-d, it is the aim of the Parents' Weekend Committee to acquaintu with the way your son lives and learns here, rather than totinually expose you to an infinite number of demonstrationsa perpetual tour of the MIT physical plant. While this mightentertaining for the more energetic parents, what we want is
which, unfortunately, cannot be fully realized in a brief weekend.The program as planned, however, touches upon enough highpoints so that the parent who keeps this purpose in mind canderive much more from his visit than a tour of a scientific insti-tution.
Your very broadest look at MIT will be, as it is for us, thestudents, in its people. Nationalities and personalities are asmany and yet as varied as so many snowflakes, and throughoutyour stay this will become increasingly evident.

Balhyscaphe CamerasIt was my privilege to design the flash photo equipment which was uset _
on an early 135,285 foot dive of the FNRS III Bathyscaphe off Dakar, AfrikThe research committee of the National Geographic Society had given me fundsto design, build, and send this camera equipment to France for use in the p?neering exploits of this deep-diving submarine. Later, I spent a month in
Toulon studying the photography problem. From this study, additional extern~al_cameras were designed, which are now in use on the vessel. At the presen!~Rmoment, cameras and flash equipment are being designed, built and tested for[both the Trieste and the new French Bathyscaphe.
Electronic flash cameras controlled by pushbuttons at the observer's position!are now standard equipment on both bathyscaphes. The photographs are onewf--the most valuable results of the dives, because they remind the observers of wh:,~the)' saw and enable others to see the actual scene at the bottom. !
Eleo/Tonic Flash Lightinag _My first recallable experience with underwater photography was helping,
Dr. Newton Harvey with a camera to photograph deep-sea fishes about ten yeariago. The new (at that time) electronic flash system of lighting offered a designwhich could take miany photographs per lowering, as compared to the single-shexpendable flash bulb. Tremendous numbers of photos are required to get onheglood one when- the shooting is at random.
The electronic flash system has the following advantageous characteristic:(1) Many flashes can be obtained from a lamp. (2) Conversion of electricdenergy to light is efficient. (3) The color of light resembles daylight. (4) Con._trol of the quantity of light per flash is possible. (5) The instant of starting_can be controlled accurately. Most of these advantages are utilized in undermater_photography, especially the first.
My chief interest in photography has been in the development of electronicflash lighting equipment. Since Dr. Harvey's visit, I have made more than.1dozen underwater cameras with flash attachments. In this work it has been nec.---essary to develop special cameras with specifications that are particularly usefulin casings that must withstand tremendous hydraulic pressures.
I favor the "continuously running" camera, which cycles at a known rate,_thus exposing photos above the bottom and at different levels. One design, ~[used for several years, takes photos at twelve second intervals for about threethours, while 100 feet of film goes through the camera, producing 800 picturesre_New thin base "Cronar" film may enable the camera to expose double this nor.mal number in one loading. A clock-driven switch is used to introduce a delh[of up to two hours, and thus prevent the camera from starting until it is near-the bottom. .
Dynamic PhotographyIt occurred to Cousteau and the author, after carefully examining thousands.-
of midwater photos in and near the scattering layer, that a fast-moving cameraie-needed to surprise the mobile creatures that inhabit the depths. We think thata-camera hanging from a stationary ship finds itself in a sphere of water devoid ofanimals except those that have no capability of flight, such as medusae, siphonolphores, etc. Very rarely, if ever, have we obtained photos of shrimp, squids, etc.,,the animals which can flee from the flashes.
In August and September of 1958, while off Monaco, Cousteau and Alimiatdevised a paravane, or drag, on the bottom of a camera to hold it down whilethe ship was under way. A few tests were made which showed encouraging:results, such as a hundred shrimp on a dozen concurrent photos. A depth'recording system consisting of a pressure gauge records on the film the actual!depth at which the photographs were made. It is my firm conviction that this-fast-moving camera with a data-recording section will prove to be a useful t0o!-for chasing fast and elusive animals.
Data Cannot Be Lost
The latest model of camera will have a data-recording chamber in the cam-:era to indicate on the film the depth (pressure), time (photo of a watch), anda data card with position, data, etc. This type of data becomes of greater iln.portance as the number of films is increased, since it reduces the danger that filflwill be mislabeled or data lost. If the data are on the film, they will always bethere.
Libraries of photographs of the bottom of the oceans are needed. Severn!
such collections have been started for example, Dr. R. B. Hersey has several finebooks with photos of the Blake Plateau which are available to all to stud':,Cousteau assures me that the Institute Oceanographic of Monaco will have~deep-sea film library. I am sure that exchanges of photographs will be comrmn0'place in the future among the world's research centers, as modern explorers goforward with their task to discover the underwater world.

Each time I look at a globe, I get excited again about the _ ytremendous number of unknown things and facts that must -be submerged under the oceans that cover more than half of ~ -the area of our earth.

Auguste Piccard's bathyscaphes have been taking observers on just suctrips. Captain Georges Houot of the French Navy in the FNRS - III, fore:.ample, has made 70 dives in the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, and near Japan, agraphically described in the National Geographic Magazine, January, 1960. Ateam of American scientists, under the sponsorship of the Naval Research Laboratory, also made some 25 dives off the coast of Italy in 1958 in the TriesdiThis bathyscaphe was obtained by the U. S. Navy and after being rebuilt withbstronger steel sphere, made a world's record dive of 35,800 ft. to the bottom Ofthe challenger depth, 200 miles southwest of Guam. Lt. Don Walsh who madeythe dive with Jacques Piccard, the son of Auguste, has described his trip in theFebruary 15, 1960 issue of LIFE Magazine. [

by this requirement of an affidavit stating our dis-belief insubversive organizations ? Must our beliefs be controlled bythe national government of this country which prides itselfin its "freedom of belief"?
I urge that the students of this school make known totheir representatives in Congress their feelings on the issue,and that The Tech and even Inscomm follow the lead ofHarvard's student government in supporting this letter-writing campaign.

Dear Sil:We rejoice with the MIT coeds, present and future, over
their new good fortune of an anonymous pledge for theconstruction of a 'women's dormitory. However, please per-mit me to point out one small error in the pertinent storyappearing in last Tuesday's The Tech. While the proposedwromen's dormitory will be the largest, it will certainly notbe the first on the MIT campus. This distinction alreadygoes to MIT's Bexley Hall, next door to the Coop andbehind the Chapel. That one wing of Bexley has beengyiven over to the coeds will be readily testified by the re-maining residents, married students and professors, whofind it impossible to overlook the fact when continuouslyreminded by shrill, girlish exhuberance pouring forth at2:00 A.M. and by bands of predatory bongo-banging andguitar-whanging males at 4:00 A.M.
Perhaps I may go so far as to suggest that the anonymousbequest was the result of a popular subscription among theweary non-coed residents of Bexley?
Yours truly,KENNETH B LARSON
Our COEDS entertaie predatory .tales? Preposterouts.-ED.
Sirs:It was pointed out to us (as we would not be caught
dead reading that scandal sheet of yours) that in your lastissue you made several rash statements in reference to themost widely read and mist influential publication on theMIT campus, Voo Doo.
Our first thought was that this was just another exampleof yellow journalism in action and, as such. should be it,-nored. However, upon reflection we decided to call yourbluff and play your little game. Therefore, if your "Inter-national Tricycle Champion" dares show himself in theface of inevitable defeat at the hands of Voo Doo's acedriver, we will be more than happy to arrange a match.And, since you picked the weapons, let us pick the timeand place - at 10:00 P.M. at the APO Carnival.
We are looking forward to seeing you there - if youdare show up.
Expectantly,ROBERT G. NAGRO, Editor
Fresh from his triumphs at Le Mans, Sebring, Nassau and

7The firs/ letter loday' refers lo a THE TECH editorial i.u'hich the commewt 'asr made that Dent Gordon S. Brou'nminght v'ry possis bly be dism..ared at one comment by MIT'sPresildent S/rato. i. et speech lo lhe slumlent body. TheDean of the School of Englneering replies'
To THE EmIroR OF THE TECH:
Nothing could dismay the Dean of Engineering less thanPresident Stratton's statement at his lecture . . . when hesaid, "we must not pay too high a price for engineeringscice." IFor several years the Dean has taken the positionthat en(ineering science must not become the sacred cow ofengineering education. Engineering science as an intel-fcctual abstraction is sterile. The challenge we have here at
NiT is to weave a strong scientific base into an educationalrorar i that is trly) engineering - that will exhibit the)ltrl(),C t'ulness of engineering in exploiting science. In
tlcr \' o)rds, put science to useful, practical ends in the realworld.
The task is not easy. Currently we are strengthening there,2ulat. curricula of certain engineering -departments, andire initiatin, Science and Engineering Options in others.As a positive step toward strengthening our students graspfor the down-to-earth aspect of engineering we are initi-ating, new laboratory programs where students can work oncoLm1prehensive engineering projects of their own choice.
A contraction in the number of departmental undergrad-u.ate curricula appears both desirable and probable, but itcan only come about by evolution as profitable new themesemerge. In a search for these themes we are striving toestablish in the MIT environment engineering manifesta-
tions of science, which will foretell of new industrial hori-zons. Achievement of these goals calls for new facilitiesand new themes of interdisciplinary endeavor by the facul-ty. Hence, a concerted effort is underway to establish re-search centers in fields such as materials, energy and struc-tures. Here both faculty and students will come to gripswith problems in engineering. The character of the actiMi-ties however, will be of a kind that can be tackled best byw\orkers who are knowledgeable in the varied fields ofmodern science, and who are possessed with the urge to di-rect this knowledge to some useful, practical purpose.
These and other developments currently under way shouldenable our graduates more effectively to relate their knowl-edge of engineering science to the creation of products andengineering works of practical value in a world of rapidlyexpanding technology.
GORDON S. BROWN, Dean
School of Engineering
Dear Sir:Again there is a bill before the United States Senate for
the repeal of the disclaimer affidavit in section 1001 (f) ofthe National Defense Education Act of 1958; and againit will be defeated if there is no large response from thestudents of the nation. Last year in voting again st repealmany Congressmen stated that they had heard no complaintfrom the students who would be affected by the provision.Merely stating our opposition in informal "bull sessions"will ,ot give our Congressmen the impression that wedefinitely object - only direct protest, by means of themails, will accomplish this purpose.
For some reason unknown to me, MIT, one of the greatpowers of the collegiate world, has refused to take a standon this most important issue. This does not mean that we,the students of MIT, cannot makie.our feelings known. Dowe want to have a finger of doubt pointed at us as students

Parents!The Tech is pleased to welcome the parents visiting MIT
on this Parents' Weekend. We hope that you will use thisissue of the paper as a guide to your weekend activities.The entertainment pages as well as the stories and informa-tion on the weekend's events at MIT should prove useful inthis regard. We hope you'll attend as many of the functionsas possible. If at any time you are wondering about any-thing, or are at a loss for information - try asking one ofus undergraduates. We don't know as much as we ought toknow about this place, and we act like we know more thanwve do, but there's still a good chance we'll be able to takecare of your questions. So ask away if you're in doubt, andenjoy Parents' Weekend.

Big Space Week for U. S.: Russians Ominously SilentLast week the U. S. scored impressively in the Rocket Derby.
n underwater Polaris shot, the navigation satellite, and separationpayload from second stage in mid-space were the three big suc-
sses. Also, a test engineer in Springfield, Ohio, lived for sevenhs in a space capsule, sealed off from outside supplies of air andater, but able to wave, with a wan smile, at his family through aass viewing port. Liquid wastes, LIFE notes, were made redrink-le by means of a tiny still; the engineer remarked that theyasted better than a lot of things I've drunk at cocktail parties."11 is not rosy on the space scene, however; the C-119's failed againtheir great game of "Catch the Capsule", and throughout all thise Russians were silent, believed preparing a Mars shot, or perhapsmanned satellite.
Leonard Hail On the Changing Face of U. S. PoliticsOne of the major politicos of our time, and the mastermind of

He comments on the far-aching effects of developments in transpolrtation and communica-n on presidential and other campaigns. Television particularlys changed the methods, says Hall; he gives his opinion on howdidates of the Coolidge-Hoover era would have done on TV. Alith would have been a knockout, apparently.

To culminate an excellent seasonDraamashop is now in full rehearsalsfor "Othello", by Shakespeare, w-hichis to open Wednesday, Apr il 27th, inthe Little Theatre of EKresge Audi-toIiuIl. This will be the secondShakesperian trageldy put on byI)ramashop, which proluced "Richarld(lII" two years ago.
Featured Students"Othello, the Moor of Venice" is one
of Shakeslpealre's best known tragedliespalt of his fanmous trilogy, togetherwith "Machbeth" and "King Learl".Four mlnain characters make it one ofthe most difficult plays to act in; Iago,the "villain", is even longer thanHamelt. On topl of lrequiring excellentactors andc a nunmerous cast it needsa glreat amnount of care in the maklinFof costumes an(l designs.

i;hat will the ratings be?
IXT to sponsor special science seriesAlthough a Summer away, the festivities for MIT's Centennial are well
1n(lel way in planning. The CBS Television Netwolrk has announced a seriesof six full-hour prloglrams s on new horizons in science and technologyS to heImonsored by American Machine &. Foundry Company, which will complemelnlet
the elaborate program set by the Centennial Comittee.The series are named "Tomorrow" anld will be produced 1)y Thomas H.
Wlelf, who has won several awards for prloducing and writing a wide varietyIo d tocumentary filmns. The "Tomolrrow" selries will show how developmlent s inVioence and technology will affect our way of life.
Professor Gale, fromt the Public Relations Office, told The Tech that thei-orlallls would be shot all over the world, and will avoidl the static "on-aiampus" laboratory description. Although none of the actual productioneople have been chosen (narrators, directors, etc.) Mr. Gale assured ushat it woull involve artists and technicians of great popularity and recog-izecl ability.
No definite plans have been made as for the subject matter to be coveredut several topics are uinder consideration by both CBS and MIT. Amollnghose we might mention "How does manl think?", a program that would coverhe field of Commnunications Science; "Machines that think", a program that
i.uld explain computer technology, information theory, etc. These are onlywo of the possibilities but it gives a very good idea of what the series ofpl~ecials will offer in scientific interest as well as entertainment.

FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 196C-- V
Tech Night at the Pops Announced Ingmar Bergman FestivalThere alre times when a single man takes hold of a medium, and dominates
it by his personality and prestige. Quality is not necessarily implied in thepopularity contest and Chaplin, with all his genius, rated as much, in his owntime, as Elvis Presley today.
The rarity of outstanding personalities in 1960 is not due to bad qualitybut to a sudden overflow of young talent that makes it difficult to decide whichis a passing one and which a lasting one. The question, however, doesn'tseem to be raised when one speaks of Ingmar Bergman, the Swedish director.To his unquestionable qualities as a director he adds the ability to writeoff-beat sclripts, strange, hilarious or tragic at will
Some audiences seem to question his value, pretending that we intellec-tualize what is nothing more than experimental movie-making; some say thatby trying to deepen his subjects Bergman has obscured them to the samepoint that Beckett does in his plays; rather than interpret life and its elementsthe writer gives you a genelral picture, to be translated in your own language.
Are we really "being intellectuals" by making Bergman an untouchableidol? Are we tagging his movies "excellent" because they are Bergmann's orbecause they are truly excellent? Fortunately these questions will be answeredthanks to a "Bergman Festival", beginning on April 24th at the Brattle
Theatre. The pictures shown will beDE 8-888? : "Torment" (1944), "Three Strange

Lights In Quadrangular'The three lightweight crews will meet Harvard, the0ion Boat Club, and the Detroit Boat Club, last year'sb chanlpions. All Beaver light crews were in actionSt Saturday, with the most encouraging performance~.ned in by the frosh, who finished less than a lengthhind the victorious Crimson. On Wednesday the froshiumphed over Andover and posted a superlative time.
Out At Home
Ten returning lettelrmen and thirteen outstandingsophomores anchor one of the bigest heavyweight crewsin MIT history. The varsity eight averages 6'4" and190 lbs. In his prc-season forecast Frailey wrote, 'Thisbeing an Olympic year, the season takes on added signi-ficance. The spilrit in the boat house is high, with a can'the missed "will to win' prevalent." Work-outs thus farhave been faster than last year's, but, as he noted, theopposition.is also improved.
The first race tomorrow comes at 3:15, with the froshlightweights furnishing the action. The other races: JVlights, 3:45; varsity lights, 4:15, frosh heavies, 5:00;J V heavies, 5:36; and varsity heavies, 6:00.
Lights Bow to Harvard, NavyThe HIarvard lightweight varsity, unbeaten Henley
titlists for the past two seasons, captured their 21stconsecutive victory in last Satulrday's keynote 1race. Astarting spurt at a 40-count propelled the Crimson to ahalf-deck lead after 10 seconds and a half length gap bythe Sailing Pavilion. Settling down into a smooth 291,
they gradually widened their lead toa final 2 lengths and finished in 6:48.8.
Navy and MIT, meanwhile, batledfor second position until the milemark, where the Middies pulled 1,2length ahead and held on to the finish.Coach Val Skov was encouraged bythe showing in that it was an im-? A l provement over the openings of recent
I years. Yet the excellent times weregreatly favored by a 10 to 15 mile anhiour wind at the back of the oarsmen.
The Engineerl jayvees also finishedthird behind the Harvard and Navylights. Again a fast start by theCrimson moved them into a comnmand-ing lead which they never relin-

"NO PARKING"
As everyone knows, the most serious problem facing Americancolleges today is the shortage of parking space for students' cars.
Many remedies have been offered to solve this vexing dilemma.For instance, it has been suggested that all students be requiredto drive small foreign sports cars which can be carried in thepurse or pocket. This would, of course, solve the parking prob-lem but it would make double dating impossible-unless, thatis, the boys make the girls run along behind the car. But thatis no solution either because by the time they get to the promthe girls will be panting so hard that they will wilt their corsages.
Another suggested cure for our parking woes is that allstudents smoke Marlboro cigarettes. At first glance this seemsan excellent solution because we all know Marlboro is thecigarette which proved that flavor did not go out when filterscame in-and when we sit around and smoke good Marlboroswe are so possessed by sweet contentment that none of uswishes ever to leave, which means no gadding about whichmeans no driving, which means no parking problem.
But the argument in favor of Marlboros overlooks one im-portant fact: when you run out of Marlboros you must go getsome more, which means driving, which means parking, whichmeans you're right back where you started.
Probably the most practical suggestion to alleviate the campusparking situation is to tear down every school of dentistry inthe country and turn it into a parking lot. This is not to saythat dentistry is unimportant. Gracious, no! Dentistry is im-portant and vital and a shining part of our American heritage.But the fact is there is no real need for separate schools of den-tistry. Dentistry could easily bemoved +to the school of miningengineering. Surely anyone who can drill a thousand feet foroil can fill a simple little cavity.

This experimnent-combining dentistry with mining engineer-ing-has already been tried at several colleges-and with somevery interesting results. Take, for instance, the case of a dentalstudent named Fred C. Sigafoos. One days recently Fred wasout practicing with his drilling rig in a vacant lot just offcamlpus. He sank a shaft two hundred feet deep and, to hissurprise and delight, he struck a detergent mine. For a whileFred thought his fortune was made but he soon learned thathe had drilled into the storage tank of the Eagle Laundry.Walter P. Eagle, president of the laundry, was mad as all get-out and things looked mighty black for Fred. But it all endedwell. When MIr. Eagle called Fred into his office to chew himout, it so happened that Mr. Eagle's beautiful daughter, PatientGriselda, was present. For years Patient Griselda had beenpatiently waiting for the right man. "That's him!" she criedupon spying Fred-and today Fred is a full partner in the EagleLaundry in charge of pleats and ruffles.
