44 patients out of 45.Dr. Butt, who had been working

on kidney disorders for years,began to seek the cause of painfulkidney stones while he was in thePacific during World War II. Hecollaborated with Dr. Hauser whoworked out the chemical explana-tions for the action of the drug.

Efforts were focused on the in-fluence that hydrophilic colloidsexert in the etiology of kidneystone prevention and formation, afield which "did not have yet re-ceived sufficient attention. It wasfelt that a more systematic studyof their action might offer valuableinformation on how urinary con-cretions could be stopped or com-pletely avoided." They prove thatif the concentration of protectiveurinary colloids is insufficient stoneformation begins or is accelerated.They found that a subcutaneousinjection of hyaluronidase mixedwith saline causes a pronouncedLucrease in protective urinary col-loids. The colloids may form a gel,and thereby prevent crystallizationof the electrolytes present. Theprotective colloids are formed whenthe drug mixes with hyaluronicacid, the substance that holds thebody cells together. The colloidthen passes into the blood-streamand is carried to the kidneys whereit acts on the stones. The drugmust be injected once every 24 to120 hours through the skin, andlike insulin, it keeps stones fromforming by acting as an antidote.

Dr. Butt estimates that severalmillion persons in the nation havekidney stones, some of them vith-out ever knowing about it.

Besides being proven a treatmentfor kidney stbnes, the discovery ofthe action of protective colloids hasopened new unexplored horizonsfor medical scientists.

No Parking BehindBaker And Burton

There will be no parking in thealley behind Baker and Burtonhouses as of Wednesday, January 9,Robert M. Kimball, director of Busi-ness Administration, announcedWednesday. Safety and fire pre-vention were given as the reasonsfor the parking prohibitions.

Mr. Kiinball explained that whenan automobile, parked behindBaker, was burning, on the daybefore Christmas vacation, fire en-gines were unable to get to it be-cause of the blocked alley.

In the future all cars foundparked in the alley will be im-pounded in the same manner asany car violating other Instituteparking regulations.

Dr. E. A. Hcuser

Dr. Ernest A. Hauser graduatedfrom the University of Vienna in1921, was a director of a big Aus-trian rubber company laboratory,

I'and then in 1936 came to theUnited States where, during WorldWar II he made successful experi-mexnts witil the quayuale to becomeprobably the nation's foremost au-thority on the production of home-grovm rubber.

Dr. Hauser caused a stir in aca-

denmic circles in 1940, when he re-siglned from the Armerican Associ-ation of Scientific workers. At thattime, he charged that a numberof the members in the branch em-bracing Harvard, MI.I.T., and Tufts,harbored un-American tendencies.

His scientific efforts since com-ing to America have been largelydevoted to assisting industry tomake huge savings through appli-cation of laboratory development§.He intends to work on gallstonesas soon as his present project iscompleted.

An exposition of swiss poster art

is on display in the lobby of Build-ing 7 until January 28. The displayis of the best posters of the yearas selected by the Swiss Govern-ment.

The Swiss Government with theircustomary efficiency has stand-arciized the size of posters and givesawards for the best posters of theyear. Although the posters areprimarly intended for advertisingpurposes the government bases itsawards on the artistic effect ofthe posters rather than on theiradvertising appeal.

The exhibition was financedby the National Institution, ProHelvetia. Normally the posters aredistributed by two organizations,Allgemein Plakatgesellschaft orUniversal Poster Organization andOrell-Fussli, The former controlsdistribution in the rural areas andthe latter controls distribution inthe Swiss Federal Railways. Bothof these organizations are com-mercially and politically neutral-

no political party ever receives morespace that its opponents.

Of utmost concern to these peopleis preservation of the naturalbeauty and historical sites.

Finally there is a control boardthat has censorship powers. Thepurpose of this board is to keepup the artistic quality of the pos-ters. Fortunately the board hasvery rarely had to use its powers.

The Swiss poster has been a basicform of Swiss art for generations.Around 1900 there was a definiteshift in Swiss poster art. Theartist no longer tried to produce anexact representation of the sceneor idea but instead he tried tocreate a symbol of that motif.

In Switzerland many of the bestartists devote their time and energyin the design and execution of theirposters. As a result many famousartists are represented in the ex-hibit. Such famous names as HansErni, Alois Carigiet, Hans Fischer,Herbert Keupin, Niklaus Stocklin,Pierre Gauchat, Carlo Viverelli, and

Max Hill appear as signatures.

DoFermeni o1I-STo Be Granted ToPresent Students

The 1951 amendments to theSelective Service law provide thatstudents are henceforth to be de-ferred instead of having their in-duction postponed, it was an-nounced by Major General LewisBS. Hershey, Director of SelectiveService. They will, therefore, haveample opportunity after the com-pletion of their academic year toenlist in the services of their choice.

The Selective Service Act of 1948provided that at the end of hisacademic year, any full-time stu-dent would become liable for im-mediate induction. The 1.951 amend-merits to the Act changed this,General Hershey pointed out, byproviding that any student pursu-ing a full-time course who wasordered for induction would, if heha never before been deferred asa student, be deferred in Clas§ I-Suntil the end of his academnic year,but he could recelve only one suchdeferment.

A student who is entitled to astatutory -,S deferment must beordered for induction, GeneralHershey pointed out, before he canbe deferred by his local board. Thelaw says that he shall be deferredI"-upon presenting the facts" thathe is atisfactorily pursuing a full-time course at the time the order|for induction is issued. A student-who is ordered for induction shouldnot be thrown into a panic, GeneralHershey explained all that Is neces-sary is for him to request the Deanor Registrar to immediately givehis local board official notice thatlhe is a full-time student doingsatisfactory work and that suchwork actually commenced prior tothe date the order for inductionwas mailed.

The new Selective Service lawprovided for the Class I-S statu-tory deferment and gave the Presi-dent authority to prescribe regula-tions governing the deferment ofstudents in such numbers as hedeemed necessary to the mainte-nance of the national health, safetyor interest. The President subse-quently prescribed a Class 1A-S Stu-dent deferment program. Studentsmay be placed in this classification,General Hershey explained, at thediscretion of their local boards. Toassist the boards in determiningwhich students should be given!I1-S deferments, a method was setup whereby students who are in theprescribed upper portion of themale members of their class or whomade a score of 70 or better on theSelective Service College Qualifica-tion Test may be considered byt >heir local board for deferment. Thelaw provides, however, that localboards are not required to defermen who meet one or both of thecriteria. This is still discretionaryon the part of the board. Generalpolicy is that students meetingeither or both criteria will be de-ferred.

, iany students have been con-fueAd, Crenoral Hershey observed, indifferentiating between the I-S and!I-S defermerts. The II-S defer.ment is considered on the basis ofclass standing or qualilcation testand is discretionary on the part ofthe local board, General Hersheyexplained. It may be granted bythe local board each successiveyear, thus enabling students whomeet the critaria to complete theireducation. Tile X-S deferment on theother harnd is a "one-shot", prop-osition designed only to allow

A nsc ue Hoste ToCollege-inustryAnnual Conference,

The fourth annual College-Industry Conference, sponsored bythe Relations with Industry Divi-sion of the American Society forEngineering Education, bezll be heldat the Institute on the second ofFebruary to bring industry andtwenty New England colleges to-get her to discuss their mutual prob-lems in the training of manpowerfor industry. "The EngiLeer as anIndividual" is the theme chosenfor the conference.

Dr. Karl T. Compton, Chairmanaof Corporation of the Institute,will give the opening welcome, fol-lowed by other addresses includ-ing one by Dean S.C. HollisterI ofCornell University, and Presidentof the American Society for Engi-neering Education. Three simul-taneous panel discussions centeredon the themes of the morningtalks, the relationship of highschools to engineering education,the role of the professional andhonorary societies in the engineer-ing school, and the engineer as anindividual in industry, will consti-tute the afternoon program.

Execative committee. for the con-ference includes: George D. Lob-ingler, manager of professionalemployment of Westinghouse Elec-tric Corporation; Martin J. Bergenfrom E. I. DuPont de Nemours andCompany, chairman of the Rela-tions with Industry Division of theAmerican Society for EngineeringEducation; Karl B. McEachron, Jr.,manager of the Technical Educs-tion Division of General ElectricCompany; Professor Arthur L.Townsend of the Institute, chair-man of the Internal ArrangementsCommittee; and Professor John T.Rule of the Institute, chairman ofthe External Arrangements Com-mittee.

Cn %. . ill StudyClas A Question

The question of Class A activitystatus and who gets it took a newturn at the Institute Committeemeetina last Wednesday when thatbody appointed a committee tostudy the status of all activitiescurrently listed as Class A and ofall those who are applying for suchstatus.

At presenti, the Lecture SeriesCommittee is seeking permanentClass A status; the Hobby Shop,the Association of Women Students,and several other groups are seek-ing provisional Class A status; andthe Debating Society is trying tokeep its Class A status againstpressure to oust it. The new com-mittee will try to determine whetherthese and other groups meet therequirements for Class status ascurrently set forth in the Under-graduate Constitution.

It will not enter the domain ofthe Student Government Investi-gating Committee which is seek-ing a revision of the criteria forClass A status or possibly the elim-ination of the Class A-Class B de-marcation. At present Class A clas-sification carries a seat on Insti-tute Committee with it while Class·B status does not.

CARRY ON!It seems appropriate that we should at this time remind

the members of the new MIanaging Board of the importance oftheir work with the hope that it will serve to encourage themduring the coming year.

They are in complete charge and responsibility of the onlyundergraduate newspaper on campus. The eyes of the entirecampus are upon them; if successful, they will receive commen-dation, if, however, they should fail, the entire school willsuff er.

It is with confidence and trust that the members of theManaging Eoard of Volumn LXXI wish the new Boards thebest of success.

A GOOD STAR TWhen the Student Government Investigating Committee sat

down to streamline the structure of the Undergraduate Asso-ciation this fall, it was presented with a variety of panaceasand reforms of varying extremes. Out of this conglomeration,it has now come up with several minor but important proposalsdesigned to eliminate so-called "rote work" from InstituteCommittee business and give that body more time to fulfill itsbasic function as a clearing house for student problems.

It is essential that the investigating group move still furthertoward this goal by making drastic changes in the current out-moded system of representation on Institute Committee. None-theless, the current proposals are workable and intelligent;they should be adopted by the Institute Committee-when theycome up for a vote. In brief, they would make the followingchanges:

1. Give to the Executive Committee of Institute Committeethe job of approving all activity officers and elections exceptelections from the Institute Committee body itself. Thelatter group would have the right to review the decisionsof the Executive Committee.

2. Give to the Executive Committee the job of approving theconstitutions of new activities and major changes in existingconstitutions after these had been considered for technicalcorrectness by the Walker Memorial Committee. Again, theInstitute Committee would have the right to review Execu-tive Committee decisions and to hear appeals on negativedecisions. In the case of small constitution changes, theWalker Memorial Committee would have the job of initialapproval or disapproval with the right to review and to hearappeals invested succeedingly in the Executive Committeeand the Institute' Committee,A third measure still being worked on by the Investigating

Committee would combine the Elections Committee and theWalker Memorial Committee into a service body known as aSecretariat.

Student government at the Institute is unique in that itexercises virtually all of the jurisdiction over student activities.Day-to-day administration, however, should not be carried outby the highest governing undergraduate body but rather byservice organizations under its control. It remains to be seenjust how effective the Institute Committee's consideration ofbroader educational, living group, and activity problems canbe when it no longer has its agenda cluttered with routinematters. The current proposals of the Investigating Committee, however, should go a long way toward the attainmentof better student government if implemented in the proper spirit.

Dear Sir:I wish to remove any confusion

arising from Mr. Maurice David-son's letter in THE TECH of Jan.8th concerning Walker food.

Mr. Davidson could not possiblyhave been polled by East CampusHouse Committee; we polled Fresh-men residing at East Campus ex-clusively. These men were polledin their rooms by their respectivehall chairmen. I believe the re-sults of our poll truly reflected theopinions of East Campus Freshmen.

There has been another poll con-cerning Walker Food taken by an-other party. This must have beenthe poll Mr. Davidson was referringto.

This is the first official page that the newly appointed sports

staff is running and so we shall introduce ourselves: Mark

Caplan, Jerry Cohen and John Margulis. We have be'en given

various titles by this paper's efficient managers, but finding

copy boys and reporters to yell at or give work to very difficult

(we comprise the entire staff) we shall at this time neglect

to mention them. If there is anyone who is interested in help-

ing us earn our titles we would be happy to let him join our

fold. Seriously, we know how poor and inaccurate sports cov-

erage has sometimes been in the past and we shall try to

change this, once and for all this spring. We need men who

are interested in sports, writing and lots of them, so if you

are interested in this type of activity for next term, we wouldappreciate it if you would stop in at THE TECH offices early

next term.

While New England colleges are tossing around the idea of cutting

out pre-season practices in all sports and the whole nation clamors for

the return of the amateur, a new basketball scandal is brewing in the

New York area, or so rumors have it. It should break wide open before

February!!

A southern university president recently said that he wished his

school could become one the football team could be'p~'oud of ....

and a basketball player recently left a school in the same area, although

he loved the game, because he couldn't stand school.

CONFERENCE IN THE CLOUDS

Among the undergraduates on any college campus, you'll findthe talk reaching up to the clouds. And once in a while-- in a class-room, around a study table, or even in a bull session-a really bigidea is born.

Big ideas come, too, from the men and women in laboratories,business offices, shops. But often these professionals are exploringa path first glimpsed in college.

How do wre know? Because of the many college people whohave come into the Bell System, where Dig ideas and a lot of dreamshave taken their place in progress. The human voice, carried alonga waire, first across a town, then a state, a nation, and now the world.Music and pictures and things happening delivered into cities andhamlets all across the land by radio and television networks.

We're always looking for the men and women who get bigideas- whether they're about people, or machines, or ways of doingthings. It's the only way the Bell System can keep on giving thiscountry the best telephone service in the world.

or II-S it is a deferred classifica-tion, and not a postponement ofinduction, General Hershey pointedOut. At the end of the academicyear, the local board must reopenthe classification to determinewhether he qualifies for any classi-fication other than I-A. Follow-ing the period the local board isreconsidering his case. A studenthas the right, if he is not deferredfor another year, to enlist in theservice of his choice, and his rightto enlist in the service of his choice,General Hershey revealed, con-tinues until he is ordered to reportfor induction. The Selective Serv-ice law, however, prohibits a manfrom enlisting in the service of hischoice once he has been orderedto report for induction.

In June 1951, the Department ofDefense rescinded the interserviceagreement and have periodicallyextended the period until March 31,1952. Therefore, any student desir-ing, in January, to enlist in theservice of his choice will have theopportunity, General HIershey ob-served, and it appears probable thatthose students completing their ac-ademnic year in June 1952, will alsohave ample opportunity to enlistin the service of their choice.

i4 points. Unfortunately, four per-sonal fouls kept him out of furtheraction until almost the very end ofthe game.

In general, the team looked goodand has seemed to have improvedquite a bit since the start of theseason. With a little more pre-game practice which was lackingbefore this game because of vaca-tion, the results of this game couldquite as easily been reversed.

Frosh Look GoodIn the preliminary freshman

game the Cardinal and Gray froshgot off to a fast start and, a 5 pointlead but were quickly tied at 15 alland then lost the lead, never torecover it. Towards the end ofthe contest, with but 3 minutes toplay, it looked as if the Fresh hada chance to win, but with onlythree points separating the twoteams, the Red and White surgedahead and won, 71-62.

Giff Weber really got hot anddunked in the phenomenal totalof 23 points. The team itself, how-ever, was playing rather looselyand did not have too tight a de-fense.

The next Varsity game is withNortheastern University this Fri-day night at 8:30 at home.

Draft(Continued from Page 1)

those Students who do not haveeligiblity for consideration for II:-Sdeermernts, and who have neverbefore received a student defermentor postponement to complete theircurrent academic year.

A student who receives a I-S de-ferment until the end of his cur-rent academic year may in someinstances receive a Il-S defermentfor the next year, General Hersheyrevealed. If during the academicyear his work was such that he isin the prescribed upper portion ofhis class, or if he takes the Selec-tive Service College QualificationTest and makes a score of 70 orbetter, the local board can con-sider him for a II-S deferment forthe following academic year.

Local boards generally determineduring the summer months to whomII-S deferments shall be grantedfor the next academic year. Inmaking their determination, theyconsider the student's class stand°ing for the previous academic yearas furnished by the school onSelective Service Form 109.
