mediator between the students andthe administration. Noda sees thestudents as vital to the Institute, butthinks that too often the studentsare unaware of their importanceand power. She is impressed withthe good ideas that she has heardfrom students she had talked to,and wants them to speak up and getnoticed.

The main problem that Nodasees with student life at Caltech isthat too often students get caughtup in inter-house aggression. Shewants students to leave here feel­ing as though they belong toCaltech as a whole, and not just toa particular house. All JeanneNoda really wants is for studentsto have fun.

you've probably already met her.If not, then you should know thatCaltech has a new Associate Dean,and that her name is Jeanne Noda.

The position of Associate Deanwas traditionally held by a memberof the faculty; Noda's appointmentrepresents the first time Caltech haschosen a professional to fill thespot. She comes to Tech from theUniversity of Illinois at Chicago,where for the past three years shewas the director of the Master ofBusiness Administration program.Before that she was the assistantDean of the Business School atWashington University in St.Louis. Prior to her work in collegeadministration, she was a socialworker, specializing in outpatienttherapy.

Becoming Caltech's assistantDean wasn't something that Nodawas really planning. Last spring,she and her husband decided to ac­cept a transfer that moved his jobfrom Illinois to Southern Califor­nia. In April, she read an ad in theChronicle ofHigher Education thatannounced the position. Noda ap­plied soley through the ad, whichwarned applicants to "be preparedfor unusual hours," and wentthrough a series of interviews onceshe and her family relocated herein July.

One of the more telling inter­views was with the members of theIHe. They asked why she wouldbe willing to go from a positionwhere she was the head of a largedepartment, to a rather "outlying"position where she is subordinateto the Dean of Students. Herresponse is that she has a "gut feel­ing" that Caltech is the right placefor her, "an extraordinary place."She was impressed with how much

I--LETTERS--I

Greg SuscaPainting and Wallcovering

Interior and Exterior

To the Editor:I would like to cordially

disagree with the sentiments ex­pressed [California Tech, Oct. 4]by Mr. Warr. Throughout his let­ter, he treats the Honor Code as ifit were a dictatorial system of rulesCaltech tries to instill. Nothingcould be further from the truth ofthe spirit and practice of thesystem.

The Caltech community is aunique collection of rather in­telligent and individualistic people.Many of us have been "loners" byvirtue of our academic position,and it is pleasant to be able to joingroups as an equal, rather than bealoof at the top. I believe this to bethe cause of "house spirit". The"herd mentality" which causes peo­ple to join groups as faceless in­feriors is, if present at Caltech, arare exception quite outside myexperience.

The Honor Code is simply aformalized statement of how agroup of strong-willed individualssuch as the Caltech community canlive with itself. It is quite true thatmost of us have always avoidedtaking "unfair advantage" on prin­ciple; I see no harm in formalizingwhat we already live by. Thesystem is not coercive, the Boardof Control not being a force whichis present in our daily lives. Yet theBoard ofControl is a beneficial in­fluence in that if we feel wrongedby someone, we have a civilizedinstitution to address the issue. Thelack of such formalized institutionsas the BOC leads to an anarchy thatlooks pleasant in theory, but leadsto increasingly brutal retaliation forwrongs in reality.

While I share Mr. Warr'sdistaste for certain political groupson campus, the institutions ofCaltech neither help nor hindertheir formation. Persons of likepersuasion tend to congregate,·andif you find the stormtroopers ob­noxious, I can only suggest thatyou congregate with persons of likepersuasion to yourself.

Lastly; if "growing up" is a one­step process, leading discon­tinuously from childhood toadulthood, then colleg is not theplace to make that jump. I do notbelieve that people mature in thisfashion. Instead, a person con­tinues to grow and learn from theirexperiences thorughout their lives,as long as they retain open minds.People come to Caltech in variousstages of this process, and it is un­forgivably stupid to ignore thematuring experiences which are

available during your time here,for learning from them can makeyou a better person. If treating peo­ple with fairness, dignity, andrespect is a lesson you have yet tolearn, perhaps experience with theHonor Code can help. If you havealready made "all the relevant deci­sions" on how to lead your life, youmust be dead. May you rest inpeace.

To the Editor:As a parent of the one "casual­

ty" of the Caltech Y backpack trip,I would like to thank the fellowhikers who were in Tom's group.Without the runners notifying theairlift and the remaining hikers ad­ministering life-savin first aid, thetrauma could have been a tragedy.Thanks also to the staff at theCaltech Y for its continued·supportand concern.

portunity to express our gratitudeto the housing office. Nancy, Paul,Elsa, and their respective staffshave been most helpful in theendeavor of getting our off-eampushouse into shape. We found themextremely cooperative and attentiveto our needs. We believe that thestudents of Caltech are fortunate tohave such an effective and profes­sional group ready to work withthem. All students need to do isask.

To the Editor:They say tmttation is the

sincerest form of flattery, but I'mnot impressed. I think it is OK thatthe Tech lets its writers use noms­de-plume, but it isn't so cool whenthey use my name for an article onsomething so trivial and non­newsworthy a subject as the Pagevs. Fleming Gumbobolus change.Who cares?

Peter/Pete sang nursery rhymes on helium at the thrilling 290cocktail party. People had to enter through the thin friends' door. LiverColonies wears a wig and Jonoto has turned sinister.

Ruddock: Life goes on in the big Bud. A hearty welcome was ex­tended to 37 frosh and four transfers, complete with lots ofwater. HassleWeek went as expected- the wimpy freshmen failed in discovering theidentity of the pledgemaster and succeeded in being washed by the ug­ly sophomores. Alter several days of carrying around rocks and beingshowered at will, the frosh wised up and sought the help of the seniors.The seniors cleaned up-Bungo "Nathan" and ya Paul-key got a sixof Swiss Lowy each for doing nothing.

By Friday, everone was convinced that Mike Warren was thepledgemaster, but noooooo, Huev'os was too swift for all but the seniors,who knew all along that the pledgemaster was none other than Lloyd"Sucks" "Is he a Rudd?" Chao

BURGlER CONTllNlENTAt

every time a song ended in thecanned music they played. By nineforty-five, the lights had gone out,and Domino Theory was about toplay. By ten, the crowd was sickof them. I must say that this wasthe most lifeless band I have everseen. The drummer wore head­phones, closed his eyes, hung hismouth open, and pounded awayoblivious to the world. Theguitarist looked bored with thewhole event - but then again, theonly discernible sound was thedrums anyway. The only musicianwith any animation at all was thebassist/vocalist. His vocals wereutterly muddled and he had tosingle-handedly try to paddle hisband out of the swamp. The cur­rent was against him, however­the acoustics were horrible, theband clearly didn't have a soundman, and the crowd wasn't there tohear a second-rate pop band play­ing poor dance music. It was a badscene all around. When RickWakeman came on, however, allwas forgiven.

Rick Wakeman started hismusical career at an early age as aconcert pianist, and he won manyawards. When he began attendingthe Royal College of Music,however, he realized that hecouldn't compete with the biggestand brightest in the classicalbusiness. As a result of this, hebegan doing some studio work forrock bands, which gave him someof the freedom he was searchingfor. His most notable studio workin this era (1969-71) includesDavid Bowie's Space Oddity, LouReed's first solo album, and the in­credible piano solo in Cat Stevens'"Morning Has Broken." Duringthis time he also happened to dosome studio work for the Strawbs,a king of electrified folk band.They liked Wakeman so much thatthey invited him to join, and all ofa sudden both Wakeman and theStrawbs were big news on themusic scene. Wakeman had anaversion to folk music, however,and was never too happy with theband. Thus, when Yes asked himto join them in 1972, he decided totake the chance. It was with Yesthat Wakeman first gained a largefollowing. At almost the sametime, he signed a solo contract withA&M Records, and in 1973 hereleased his first solo album, TheSix Wives of King Henry VII/.Since that time, Wakeman has leftYes twice (and permanently), andhas put out many solo albums. Hislast album with A&M was Rhap­sodies, which was· released in1979. Since then, he has done workfor an English label, and his newerrecords are hard to find inAmerica. His newest album, SilentNight, was released earlier thisyear in England, and has recentlybeen released in this country. Thus,for the first time in six years, RickWakeman toured the United States.

When Rick Wakeman's bandfirst appeared on stage, the over­whelming impression I got was thatthese people had been around fora long time. Wakeman, at 36,could well have been the youngestmember of the band. I wonderedif this was some last ditch effort toattain fame, but this worry wasquickly and easily dispelled. Themoment they began playing, it wasclear that these men were pros andthat they meant business. Let's faceit-they were good.

The second overwhelming im­pression I got was that of

Concerts at nightclubs can be alot of fun. The place is usuallysmall, so the seats are generallyvery good. The sound doesn't haveto be turned up past the point ofclarity, and the band is in goodcontact with the audience. There isusually some "required" number ofdrinks to buy, but this limit is rare­ly enforced (it is rather hard tokeep track of these things in a bigcrowd, after all). Well, all of thisis simply theoretical. In practice,things don't always work out sowell. Take the Keystone Theatre inPalo Alto, for example ...

I got to this particular concerta couple of hours early, and so Iwas behind less than ten people inline. This entitled me to a front rowseat. Here comes catch numberone - the club had rows of tinyround tables going parallel to thestage, with four chairs aroundeach. This meant, of course, thattwo people in each group of fourhad to either face away from thestage or not use the table. To makematters worse, the bouncer keptcoming by and shoving everybodytogether to make room for thecocktail waitress.

This all occurred at eighto'clock, and the concert was due tobegin at nine. Although no warmupband had been advertised, we wereinformed by the bouncer that alocal band called Domino Theorywould play for thirty minutes. Wetook advantage of our free time tosurvey the theatre. There was adance floor about twenty feet infront of the stage, and it quicklybecame apparent that our "frontrow" seats were no great bargain.Sure enough, as the tables filled,wayward souls clogged the dancefloor in front of us. Luckily, thetables were all on a raised plat­form, so the view wasn't too bad.Our scrutiny shifted to the acousticdesign of the club. The building islong and narrow, with a high ar­ched ceiling. It was quite a bit likean aircraft hangar, as a matter offact - a fine environment for goodsound. Of course, the ceiling heldno acoustical tiles, only cheapblack paint. The stage was set fora fine evening.

By nine fifteen, the crowd wasa little bit restless. How late wasthe concert going to last if the firstband hadn't even come out yet? Bynine thirty, people began to cheer

It was also clearthat he enjoyed the old material farmore than the new. Although thenew music was fine, it lacked theimagination, depth, and feeling ofthe early pieces. The crowd and theband thought the same thing. Infact, the only person who may nothave concurred with this was thevocalist, who had no instrument toplay. Through much of the oldermusic he was relegated to playinga few percussion instruments. Infact, for most of the concert heseemed to be searching for an in­strument to play - he spent most ofhis vocals making nightclub-stylegesticulations having little to dowith what he was singing. Hisvocals were fine, it's just that weall felt a bit sorry for him for nothaving anything else to do. He's in

by Doug RobertsThe Caltech soccer team con­

tinued its winning ways with a 2-0overtime victory over Christ Col­lege Irvine..

After playing ninety minutes ofscoreless soccer, the CCI coach,desperately seeking his first victoryof the season, begged and pleadedfor the game to go into overtime.He played right into the hands ofthe Caltech squad, who had clear­ly dominated regulation time play.

Five minutes into the first over­time period, halfback KonstantinOthmer, who hadn't played earlierin the game due to illness, lobbeda long, high shot that floated rightinto the back of the net. Then mid­way through the second overtime,John Josephson scored a goal frominside the penalty area that sealedCCl's fate, and the score stood at2-0.

On Wednesday, the Caltechbooters saw less success. With ill­ness keeping the most offensiveTechers off the field, Pomona­Pitzer scored a 4 - 1 victory overthe Beavers.

John Henry Scott, filling in foran ailing Randall Bownd, scoredthe sole .Caltech goal of the day.The Caltech side showed improv­ing teamwork and hope for a vic­tory tomorrow at Redlands.

Halo Calvino died on 19September in Italy of complicationsfollowing a stroke. He would havebeen sixty-two last Tuesday. As anItalian Resistance fighter duringWorld War II, Mr. Calvino col­lected the experiences which form­ed the basis for his first novel, ThePath to the Nest o/Spiders (1947).In the '50s, he turned more andmore to fantasy, producing thetrilogy Our Ancestors (The Nonex­istent Knight, The Baron in theTrees, and The Cloven Viscount)and the tremendous compendiumItalian Folktales. His short storiesand novellas, such as those in Difficult Loves and The Watcher andOther Stories, continued in arealistic vein, while his longerworks ("novels" is hardly ap­propriate) turned more tospeculative fiction. Invisible Cities(1971) and Ifon a winter's night atraveler (1979) are regarded asmasterpieces. Mr. Calvino wasalso an editor of a literarymagazine in the '40s and '50s, andlater worked for one of the largerItalian publishing houses.

He had been awarded some ofItaly's (and some of the world's)highest literary honors in hiscareer, and was at his death seenas perhaps Italy's greatest writer;he was certainly its most popular.Mr. Calvino was a quiet, unassum­ing man, and he need not worry,like Mr. Palomar, that his reputa­tion might suffer after his death.
