Glavin. Soon after the latest incident, Campus Police captured a youth whom all four students later identified as their assailant. In each reported incident a youth approached a lone MIT student walking on the Harvard Bridge sidewalk toward Boston, according to Campus Police. The youth began a conversation with each victim and then claimed to have a 38-caliber gun. The assailant never showed a weapon, but demanded victims' wallets and watches. The four victims reported the crimes to Campus Police, who notified Metropolitan District Commis- sion (MDC) Police and Boston Police. The students noted none of the cars crossing the bridge stopped durin- the robberies. The first victim was assaulted .at 1:30 am Saturday, September 4. The other three incidents oc- curred between 12:30 am and 4:30 am Monday, September 6, Glavin said. On Saturday a youth jogged up to Brian Ralston'86, a pledge of Delta Upsilon (DU) fraternity. The youth stole $40 dollars cash and a $125 watch from Ralston. Ralston later said he would have fled, but he had hurt his an- kle a week before. A Burton House resident said a youth on a bicycle approached him at 12:40 am Monday and talked aimlessly. The youth then claimed he had a gun and de- manded the student's wallet. The youth took the wallet but returned it upon finding it empty. "He reached for a necklace, but I wasn't wearing a necklace. He then went for my watch ... I was ... resisting him, so he pulled his supposed gun hand out of his pocket., the student claimed. "Then I realized he didn't have a gun. I told him so, and he left." At 1:15 that morning, a youth stole two dollars and a $60 watch from a member of Sigma Chi fra- ternitV, according to Clavin. Three hours later, a youth at- tempted to rob Alan Stoddard '85, a member of DU. Stoddard knew of the incident Saturday morning involving Ralston and fled from the assailant. Stoddard notified Campus Police, who ap- prehended a-youth at 4:30am on the corner of Massachusetts Ave- nue and Albany Street. The youth lives at a halfway house, and is now being-held in juvenile detention, Glavin said. The suspect is. a past offender on the MIT campus, according to Campus Police Chief James Ofivieri.

William Carroll, Inc., will op- erate the shuttle buses. The Asso- ciation for Student Services is still trying to arrange an $8000 loan for the bus company's first payment, due October 18, ac- cording to Lopez. "We are trying [the Undergraduate Association- .(UA3 Finance Board], the Stu- dent Center Committee (SCC), the Interfraternity Conference (I C), and individual fraternities." The Association is not yet offi- cially recognized by the UA. The bus system will operate Monday through Friday during the school term from 8 AM to 11 PM, according to Lopez. Lopez stressed the shuttle bus plan -in his unsuccessful bid for the UA presidency in March. Passes for the bus cost four dollars for a ten-ride ticket, or $16 for an semester-long pass. Single-ride plastic tokens are planned but presently unavail- able, Lopez said. The bus system's budget for this term is $16,100, according to Lopez. "We are just hoping to break even in a year. Everyone has been waiting for this for a two buses will operate instead of one, Lopez said. The MIT administration con- sidered starting a shuttle bus sys- tem in 1966, but abandoned the idea for lack of funding, accord- ing to a study done by the Trans- portation Lab class, 1.102, on the feasibility of an MIT shuttle. Most Boston-area colleges oper- ate shuttle buses, according to the report. The Association of Student Services will present its constitu- tion to the VA's Association of Student Activities (A$A) for ap- proval on September 23.

"The members of Congress have been home," said Senator Mark O. Hatfield (R-OR). "They heard their constituents." While some Republicans said Congress overrode the President's veto primarily because elections are approaching, many members of both parties viewed Reagan's defeat as an assertion that Con- gress holds the power to make By Barry S. Surman Both houses of the US Con- gress voted to override President Reagan's veto Of a $14.1 billion supplemental spending bill last week, handing the President his first major Congressional defeat. The spending bill includes ad- ditional appropriations for stu- dent aid, education for the handi- cap.ped, foreign aid, military spending, and jobs for older Americans. The Senate voted 60-30 Satur- spending decisions. The President claimed the bill was a "budget buster," though it was almost $2 billion less than his proposal. Reagan said he was "terribly, terribly hurt" by the override, and threatened more vetoes. Con- gress, he said, will "get a chance to do that every time they send an appropriation down that is over the budget. I'm going to veto it again." Eighty-one Republican Repre- sentatives and 21 Republican Senators voted to override the President's veto. Democratic strategists hope the defeat signals an end to Reagans domination of the Congress. The appropriations bill, now law, includes $217 million in grants for college students, $6.1 billion in military and civilian pay, $148 million for education of disadvantaged children, $350 million in aid to Caribbean coun- tries, $435 million for arms and defense programs, $5 billion in farm subsidies, $112 million for Medicaid, $115 million for the Internal Revenue Service, $33 million for the Coast Guard, and $211 million in subsidies for jobs for the elderly. The Coop "has unlawfully in- terfered with the employees' exer- cise of a free choice for or against a bargaining representative," Ad- ministrative Law Judge Lowell Goerlich stated in his decision. Goerlich set Thursday, Septem- ber 16 as the date for a new un- ionization election. The high turnover of Coop em- ployees since the last unioniza- tion election, the unfair labor practices committed by the Coop in that election, and the short time to organize for the new elec- tion reduced the union's chances for a victory, John Laughlin, a union official and former Coop worker, said. The union withdrew from the election because "we didn't think it would give the employees a fair shake," Laughlin added. "We are going to continue to work with the people," and the union will petition for another election in the near future, he added. James Argeros, Harvard Coop- erative Society general manager, said yesterday he had not yet of- ficially heard of the union with- drawal from Thursday's election. Argeros said Coop practices during the 1981 election were fair. The NLRB judge, he contend- ed, gave the Coop a choice be- tween appealing the decision or allowing another unionization vote.

When you bring your roll of color print film into a drugstore or camera fora goodlook.store, it will probably be printed on a high-speed "automatic" printerthat operates at speeds of up to 14, 000 prints an hour! That's good forthe film lab, but not so good for your pictures.

At PHOTOQUICK/CAMBRIDGE, we know that a machine simply cannot do as good a job printing }your pictures as a well-trained person who takes pride in his work. That's why here at Photoquick, Si>we inspect each and every negative before it's printed, and we make corrections for color balanceand density. . .corrections that probably won't be made by high-speed automatic equipment. 4o

Today's Massachusetts primaries present voters with clearchoices for the future of state politics. A continuing series ofscandals and questionable state policies over the past fouryears have made Massachusetts government an embarassmentto its citizens. Change is needed, both in the governor's seatand in our state representative's of fice.

Although the issues in the Democratic gubernatorial race ap-pear to be lost in a war of invectives, a choice between the twocandidates -Governor Edward J. King and former governorMichael S. Dukakis - is clear. In the course of the campaign,K~ing has tried to obscure his administration's record of scandaland claimed his economic policies have -brought economic re-covery to the Commonwealth. The governor now spends histime traversing the state to announce any new project withwhich he can associate himself. Most of his economic policy,,such as the recen~tly-enacted state income tax reduction, areblatantly political actions with little -or no significant economicworth. There is, indeed, little a governor can do to cure thestate's economic woes, which are part of the national malaise.

Dukakis' integrity makes him the better choice for theDemocratic nomination, but his platform -support of thebottle bill, opposition to capital punishment, recognition of en-vironmental and energy conservation issues, and plans to fighttcorruption in state government -confirms the choice.

IDukakis' administration suffered its setbacks and mistakes.Nevertheless, the choice in the Democratic primary is obvious:Dukakcis will be a good governor. Four more years of King'spolicies and posturing will be unbearable.

In the three-way fight for the Republican gubernatorialnomination, there also is one clear choice: John W. Sears. Searshas a respected record in the state Republican party. He hasrun an honorable campaign, a rarity in Massachlusetts politics.Of his opponents, Johnl Lakian has been discredited as a candi-date, and State Representative Andrew Card's campaign hasyet to start.

In the five-way race for nomination for Lieutenant Governoron the Democratic side, one candidate stands out. Evelyn Mur-phy, winner of the non-binding party convention nomination,proved herself as state environmental affairs secretary underDukakis and in the business community.

One local race where MIT votes could have a significant im-pact is the race for state representative in Middlesex. County's29th district, which includes most of MIT. The incumbent, Mi-chael Lombardi, has consistently voted against women's issues,

gay rights, good government legislation, affirmative action, thenuclear freeze, and the bottle bill. His challenger, Peter Vel-lucci, is pro-choice, in favor of affirmative action, supportive ofgaly rights, in favor of the bottle bill, and has campaigned-ac-tively for the nuclear freeze. We endorse V/ellucci's candidacy.

The decision by Congress to override President Reagan's vetoof at $14.1 billion supplemental appropriations bill is a wiseone. The bill provides $700 million more than Reagan request-ed for soci al programs, including $217 million for student aid,Lind $2.1 billion less for military spending than the Presidentdesired.

The benefit to the MIT community is obvious. With moreFederal funding available, students wi~ll be better able to studyor conduct research at the Institute, rather than be forced'intothe job market prematurely by financial exigencies.

On al larger sca le, the vote to override is the President's Firstmajor Congressional setback, and his First major break withthe Republ icaln-controlled Senate. The defection of 21l Republi-ciln Senators, though, is not the harbinger of continued strifebetween the President aind the Senate, as some optimisticDemocs~rats hope. In tall likelihnood the defection was due to thedesire of' Republican congressmen up for re-election to distance

theseles rom- the Prsden,;-t -A tdhi olcis

Whatever the reason for the override, 'ts effects Lire welcome.

1A18 83 a;I went to my first class atWellesley last Thursday. I wasvery nervous. Coming from MITand a high school with a 50:50ratio, I have never-been in a situ-ation where I was the only man.

I breathed a sigh of relief whenI ran into another guy on his wayto the same class; I wouldn't bethe only one. The women withwhom I had a chance to talk be-fore and after class were veeryfriendly. Still, I had the feelingthey were all watching me to seewhy I was there and what I wasup to. I feel I have to prove -or-disprove- somzething to them,though I'm not entirely surewhat.

I think I'm beginning to under-stand how women here at MITfeel. For example, I never under-stood why M IT freshwomenflock to McCormick Hall. Icouldn't figure out why, with 4:1ratio, they didn't take advantageoaf living in a dormitory with analmost infinite supply of men.After the flood of relief I feltupon meeting another man in myclass, I appreciate a woman's po-sition here much better. It's noteasy to be different, be one aman in a woman's world, or vice-versa.

"Half the world knows not howthe other half lives. "

-George Herbert

Taking a Wellesley subjectseems to be some great dirty jokeat M 1. Everyone here seems toassume Wellesley is just a greenplace with a 2000:0 female-maleratio. No one believes anythingacademic goes on there, or atleast nothing academic for men.

Even the women I knowb kel.this way. One was complainingto me about the drabness anddrudgery of MIT, and I suggestedshe register for a subject atWellesley. "Why," she said, "I'mnot a man."

I am taking a class at Welles-ley. I am a man (for the record).I am tired of having my friendssnicker and jab me in the ribswhen I tell -them I'm taking aclass at Wellesley.

"But you know the only reasonyou're dragging yourself outthere twice a week is to meetgirls,'' people have said to me(frequently in more vulgarterminology).

I know no such thing. My classis called "Introduction to Poli-ti cs,"' not "'Introd uction toWomen."

This is not to say I do notwant to meet women. I like wom-en. I respect women. Somne of mybest friends are women. I willnot, however, be charged withgoing to Wellesley for the expresspurpose of picking up women.The reasons I am going toWellesley are as follows:

e Wellesley is a good school.I'm a political science maj.or andIntro. to Politics seems like agood survey of political theory.I'm sure the same holds true forother classes there, especially inthose departments without MIXTcounterparts.

@ Wellesley is in the country.Walking around out there -onthe grass, through the trees, overthe hills-is refreshing.

0 Wellesley is not MIT. This iswhat in Yiddish is called a mitz-vah. Wellesley provides a starkcontrast to the Institute. Gettingaway from the gray, stony, trog-lodytic existence here is great. Noone is an engineer. Buildings andsubjects have names instead ofnumbers. The whole orientationis toward liberal arts for women,rather than engineering for men.

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 14, 1982 The TechImperial Bedroom, Elvis Costello on Co-lumbia Records.

Under the Big Black Sun, X on ElektraRecords.

Remember when the new wave in popu-lar music broke out into the public eye inthe late seventies? All those outrageousperformers got big-time publicity in splasharticles in Time and the Rolling Stone, andwe heard for the first time names like Iggypops the Sex Pistols, and the Dead Kenne-dys. The self-styled music prophets whohad been looking around for the Next BigThing declared that this was it, and we thepublic just kind of braced ourselves for thedeluge.

But when we opened our eyes again, wefound that nothing much had reallychanged. New Wave was kept alive by die-hard tragically hip types and newspaperstaffs of obscure colleges with no journal-ism majors, but it turned out that thoughthe shock troops of the New Wave had theaudacity to turn pop music on its ear, theydidn't have the balls to come up with aNew Music to replace it.

But good news and a glimmer of hopehave arrived this musical season in theform of the new album offerings by ElvisCostello and X. There's something differ-

PAG E 5ent and exciting about these albums - anew level of maturity and musical crafts-.manship. But more important, there is animplication on the part of the artists of awillingness to stand alone on the merits ofthe music, instead of deriving identityfrom a reactionary movement. It's an indi-cation that New Wave is coming of age,ready at last to make real contributions topop music. I

Imperial Bedroom is being billed as ElvisCostello's masterpiece. It may or may notbe, but it certainly continues the fascinat-ing evolutionary course his music has tak-en through each of his seven albums. Hisdebut album in 1977 marked him as rock'sangriest man, making scathing attacks oneverything from personal infidelity to po-litical stupidity. His new album, however,demonstrates a new side of Costello. Hissongs are more mature, less strident, anddepend on intricate and delicate musicalarrangements.

There are two things one notices aboutthis album after an initial listening,the firstbeing the number of words. Every song ispacked almost from beginning to end withlyrics. For once the-mixing engineer madesure they couald be understood over the in-strumentation. At times, however, Elvis'

verbosity gets out of hand, and he's forcedto wrap his melodies around the lyrics, in-stead of the other way around.

The second thing that rates notice is El-vis' marvelously pliant voice. It can, attimes, be evocative, cajoling, sardonic,compassionate, and bitter, and sometimes,all of these emotions at once. "Beyond Be-lier' and "The Long Honeymoon" are fineexamples of this vocal flexibility.

Although Elvis' lyrics are as ironic andcutting- as ever, he doesn't rock out onceon this album. He's trying-a-qew strategy,attempting to engage your heart and emo-tions in a more complete manner. He's try-ing to be more compassionate and caring,while remaining completely honest in hisobservations (listen to "Beyond Belief"and "You Little Fool").

This album can easily deceive at first.(Please turn to page 6) m s

bum that's a terrific follow-up toWild Gift. The melodies are morevaried and sophisticated, and theguitar is more daring. The lyricstake even greater risks and havemore depth of' feeling.

The word that critics havemost often used to describe X ishonest. Each song seems to be asincere effort to communicatedeeply-felt and sometimes painfulemotions. A good part of thefirst side deals with singer Ex-ene's feelings concerning her sis-ter Mary's death in an auto acci-dent."Riding with Mary" and"Come Back to Me" are haunt-ing and extraordinarily open ex-plorations of that theme.

Most of the album deals withfeelings of sadness, grief, and de-jection. Like the cover, each songis a tellingly observant but slight-ly unreal picture of life. The al-bum on a whole, however, is notgloomy or depressing. It is saved

by Billy Zoom's bright guitarwork and the overall kinetic feelrunning through all the music.

Lyrics with a negative themecombined with bright, upbeatmusic was what my seventh grademusic appreciation teacher toldme was the definition of tradi-tional American blues. The stron-gest feeling I get from X's new al-bum is that I am listening touniquely American music, a newkind of modern blues.

Neither of these two albums isnecessarily a classic, or a block-buster herald of a new age of popmusic like the original New Wavewas supposed to be. They are aheartening sign that the tremen-dous potential displayed by NewWave artists is Finally finding itsway into mature and relevantchannels. That's just the kind oftrend the pop music genre needsnow.

It's not perfect, and it's not a sell-out to MOR either. You have topay attention, but that's what El-vis wants you to do in the firstplace.

Under the Big Black Sun by Xis similar to Imperial Bedroom inthat it is a new kind of music,building on the past but jettingout much further. X emergedfrom L.A.'s hardcore punk scene,invading the public consciousnessin a big wat last year. Their mu-sic was distinguished from thepunk morass by reason of theirintriguing and catchy sound, andan engaging and endearing abilityto communicate intimate feelings.Yet, despite the fact that the crit-ics raved Wild Gift up and down,that album was a commercialdog.
