JudComm Takes Action On Baker House IncidentBy John E. Smith, Jr. '61

Upon investigation of a com-plaint concerning damages donein the east hall of the first floorof Baker House during the ClubLatino party of November 12,1960, the Institute CommitteeJudicial Committee found thatthe conduct of the individual re-sponsible was something lessthan desirable.

During the course of the eve-ning the individual concerned, inBaker House to attend the ClubLatino party, went into the easthall of the first floor. He wasobserved by several residents ofBaker House removing lightbulbs and smashing themagainst the walls. When askedto stop this and leave he wasrather offensive to the residentsconcerned. The individual wasunder the influence of alcohol atthe time the incident occurred.

During the same evening sim-ilar damage was done to a

men's room in the same hall.There were no observers presentwhen this damage was done.

In light of these events, theInstitute Committee JudicialCommittee takes the followingaction: The individual concernedis ordered to pay for the dam--ages, and he will be on JudicialCommittee probation until hegraduates from the Institute.The Committee has decided towithhold the name of the indi-vidual.

This complaint was heard bythe Institute Committee JudicialCommittee because the individu-al responsible was not a dormi-tory resident. The Committefeels that when a person entersanother living group as a guest,he is responsible for the observ-ance of the rules and normalstandards of behavior of thatliving group. In future breachesof conduct of this nature, thisCommittee will tend to be lesslenient in its actions.

_ . , II I I rl -

1961: YEAR OF DECISIONWell sir, here we are in 1961, which shows every sign of beingquite a distinguished year. First off, it is the only year since1951 which begins and ends with the Figure 1. Of course, whenit comes to Figure l's, 1961, though distinguished, can hardlycompare with 1911, which, most people agree, had not just two,but three Figure l's! This, I'll wager, is a record that will standfor at least two hundred years!

1911 was, incidentally, notable for many other things. Itwas, for example, the year in which the New York Giants playedthe Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series. As we all know,the New York Giants have since moved to San Francisco andthe Philadelphia Athletics to Kansas City. There is a movementafoot at present to move Chicago to Phoenix-the city, not thebaseball team. Phoenix, in turn, would of course move toChicago. It is felt that the change would be broadening forresidents of both cities. Many Chicago folks, for example, havenever seen an iguana. Many Phoenix folks, on the other hand,have never seen a frostbite.

There are, of course, certain difficulties attending a municipalshift of this size. For instance, to move Chicago you also haveto move Lake Michigan. This, in itself, presents no great prob-lem, what with modern scientific advances like electronics andthe French cuff. But if you will look at your map, you will findthat Lake Michigan is connected to all the other Great Lakes,which in turn are connected to the St. Lawrence Seaway, which

in turn is connected to the Atlantic Ocean. You start draggingLake Michigan to Phoenix and, willy-nilly, you'll be draggingall that other stuff too. This would make our B3ritish alliesterrihly cross, and I can't say as I blame them. I mean, putyourself in their place. What if, for example, you were a Britishworkingman who had been saving and scrimping all year for asummer holiday at Brighton Beach, and then when you got toBrighton Beach there wasn't any ocean?" There you'd be with yourinner tube and snorkel and nothing to do all day but dance theLambeth Walk. This, you may lbe sure, would not make youNATO-lninded!

I appeal most earnestly to the residents of Chicago andPhoenix to reconsider. I know it's no bowl of cherries goingthrough life without ever seeing an iguana or a frostbite, but Iask you-Chicagoans, Phoenicians-is it too big a price to payfor pireserving'the unity of the free world? I am sure that ifyou search your hearts you will make the right decision, forall of us-whether we live in frostbitten Chicago, iguana-riddenPhoenix, or narrow-lapelled New Haven-are first and foremostAmericans!

But I digress. We were speaking of 1961, our new year. Andnew it is! There is, for one'thing, new pleasure in MarlboroCigarettes. How can there be new pleasure in Marlboros whenthat fine, flavorful blend, that clean easy draw filter, have notbeen altered? The answer is simple: each time you light aMarlboro, it is like the first time. The flavor is such that agecannot wither nor custom stale. Marlboro never palls, neverjades, never dwindles into dull routine. Each pack, eachcigarette, each puff, makes you glad all over again that you area Marlboro smoker!

So, Marlboros in hand, let us march confidently into 1961.May good fortune attend our ventures! May happiness reign!May Chicago and Phoenix soon recover from their disappoint-ment and join our bright cavalcade into a brave tomorrow!

The makers of Marlboro and of the new unfiltered king-sizePhilip Morris Commander join Old Max in adding their goodwishes for a happy and Peaceful 1961.

-The Present and Future MIT ManComing back to MIT after a vacation is

rather like crawling back into a cocoon for mostof us. The process of insulating oneself awayfrom everything but quizzes, problem sets, andlabs usually takes but a short while.

As MIT students, so cognizant of so manythings in our own respective fields, we somehowmanage at the same time to be totally unaware ina number of other, more important ways.

Techmen as a rule choose to be unaware oftheir standing relative to other science and engi-neering students in this country. They have astrong tendency to tie their entire outlook andframe of mind to the present level of their cum,dooming themselves to a perennially unhappyexistence if their grades are not what they"should" be. These men would be better ad-vised to spend less time in the pursuit of"grades" as such, and more in the pursuit ofknowledge.

MIT students tend for the most part to beunaware of the literary and intellectual world ofthe humanities. C. P. Snow, a British scientistand novelist who last month gave the GodkinLectures at Harvard, discusses this problem ingeneral in his recent publication The Twvo Cul-tir'es and the Scientific Revolution, a book whichMIT men would be well-advised to read. Thelack of communication and vague sense of dis-trust between us and our Harvard counterpartsis mutual, he maintains. We would submit thatthe denizens of the scientific world, in particu-lar the MIT denizens, are somewhat better ac-quainted with the world of the humanists thanthey are with ours. An MIT man ma)y have readand understood a Shakespearean play, but asksomeone who has had a "good liberal arts edu-cation" to explain the Second Law of Thermo-dynamics to you. But we are not excused. Ourknowledge is still trifling; the gap, abysmal.

MIT tries, in a vague, general way, to punc-ture the insulation, to bring us to an awarenessof "the other culture". It is an improvementrelative to the school's past, but hardly enough.The general aim exists, as set forth in the Gen-eral Catalogue; but too frequently the policy ofbroad education is not implemented by the in-structors who are in daily contact with the under-graduates.

The spirit of the humanities does not havea general toehold outside MIT classrooms. In-deed, this may be the key. MIT seeks to edu-cate "whole men"; a number of (very good) hu-manities courses are instituted over the years.

The Tech

Techmen, responding as Techmen, treat themas just what they are: courses. Like thermody-namics and calculus, to be taken and hopefully,passed. And then, along with any of the restof his courses which have not impinged sharplyon his existence, have not "come home" tohim, to be forgotten.

The world, in the midst of the ScientificRevolution, needs scientists and engineers con-versant with more than the technicalia of theirown fields, says Snow. They must be able to seethemselves in historical context, to have someidea of the relationship of their world to theworld of the humanities.

Such men are not produced by writing a"humanities requirement" of eight courses intothe curriculum. This is a start, but nothing morethan that. A different atmosphere from the onethat now prevails outside the classroom is neces-sary. Somehow the man who is uninterested ina history or a philosophy course must become theodd stick, not the reverse.

As one of the most respected sources of tech-nically and scientifically educated men, MIT willbe expected to produce the sort of scientist andengineers Snow describes. It is not doing so now.

Why?just for the sake of completeness, we wish to

note that on the Thursday before vacation, theAthletic Board passed the motion that theIntramural Council had wisely defeated the weekbefore. Yes, you guessed it, all men on inter-collegiate teams are to be denied participationin all intramural games, except with writtenpermission of the proper coach.

We are convinced that in so doing the Ath-letic Board acted contrary to the best interests ofthe MIT student body; we have defended thispoint of view in print on four separate occa-sions in the past. Our opposition was voicedearly and often. Then too, a vote, on Decem-ber 3, of fraternity presidents speaking for theirhouses (the living groups most directly con-cerned) revealed a 26-2 sentiment against themeasure.

In the face of this antipathy we feelthe Athletic Board owed (and still owes)MIT Undergraduate Association, a publicplanation of its reason(s) for passingmeasure.

Riflemen Extend Victory StreakThe last Friday before vacation saw the MIT Rifle Team

defeat an old nemesis, Northeastern, by a score of 1426 to 1395at the home range. The range was graced by the presence of twoNortheastern Coeds who turned in creditable performances fortheir team. Scott Draper, also of Northeastern, had the top in-dividual score of 290. Nevertheless, last year's New EnglandLeague and Greater Boston League champions had been hard hitby graduations and were soundly defeated. The top MIT shooterswere Bob Clark '63, 289; Steve Smith '62, 286; and RichardLudeman '63, 285.

Latest tabulations show MIT leading the 16 team New Eng-land League with an undefeated record and a high team averageof 1423. Tech men also hold six of the top twenty places in in-dividual averages and severalothers are close behind.

% Ten Students ParticipateRussian Drm Set Up In AtkinsonRussian Dorm Set Up In Atkinson

Ten second year Russian students have formed the first_ language dormitory at MIT on third floor Atkinson. The de--o velopment of fluency in verbal Russian is aided by their faculty- advisor, Mr. David Perlmutter.

Almost in RussiaThe purpose of the group is "to live in Russian." In the

dormitory the students converse and joke in Russian. DailyMr. Perimutter places dialogues of important conversationalidioms in certain unavoidableplaces. Most of the signs, maps,and wall decorations are in Rus-sian or concern Russian culture.In addition to regular schoolRussian the group has learneda complete vocabulary of Rus-sian obscenities so that all as-pects of living can be carried onnormally.

Like many serious languagestudents, they have a keen de-sire to visit the country in whichthe language is spoken. Most ofthe members have tentativeplans to visit Russia in the nearfuture. One of the ultimategoals of the language dorm isan exchange studentship withRussia. A student exchangeprogram of this type is alreadyin effect at Harvard and Colum-bia.

This is the first year that MIThas had a language dormitory, and as such it is somewhat of anexperiment. The group hopesthat it will be able to continueand expand the program nextyear. There is a definite pos-sibility that language livinggroups in other languages-willbe formned in the n'ear future.

The students have developed akeen interest in everything Rus-sian. One of their favorite pas-times is singing Russian folk-songs to the accompaniment ofa guitar. Some of the .studentshave even obtained records ofRussian folksongs.
