NEWSPAPER OF THE UNDERGRADUATES OF THE MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

York Socialist newspaper, last Sunday.Headlined "62 Buses To Take N.Y.Kids To Youth March Against Bias,"it said that over 2400 students fromNew York alone had signed up foi themarch, many of them sponsored bylabor unions. It further reported thatsuch schools as Yale, Columbia, andCCNY had held large rallies for themarch and were sending several bus-leads of supporters.

George Henry said that based on theinformation that he has received, hewas "not convinced that the mnarchwill definitely be constructiv e." He feltthat we "should know more about itbefore going ahead." He has writtento the NSA for additional information.

As it is now planned, the marcherswill gather at the National Capitolthis Saturday afternoon, and marchdown Pennsylvania Avenue to theWhite House, where they -w-vill presentpetitions asking for speedy school in-tegration. The cost to a participantwill be $5.50 for the round trip, be-twxeen New York and Washington.

Amidst a hush-hush of Field Davpreparations, the Freshman class triedits nCew legs last week. With electionof Larry Pitts, Sigma Nu, to plesi-d(ent; Tony Rogers, Phi Delta Thlietvice president; and George Dotson,anibda Chi Alpha, secretaly-treasurer,the class of 1962 looks, hopefully, to-walrds a bright future.

To beat the class of '61 on FieldDay, andi to put the class of '62treasury in the black, the three newofficers agree, is an ambition sufficientto test the administrativee iettle ofany new oro-anization.

First action taken by the new F1resh-manl Council iwas to establish FieldDay conmmittees. Jin Kirkman wvilI\wrestle with tug-of-w\var problems,Tom Burns headls totem pole construc-tion, Jack Blum will supervise layingof the keel for the class yacht, whileDave Malrtin and Len Whelchel willdevise glove-fight strategy.

Beaver Pins On SaleTo turn ambition into reality, ac-

cor]ding to president Pitts, the classhopes to raise $75 in the next feveweeks, mniostly through the sale of"Beaver Pins" which seem to find theil-way into freshman class hands at an-nual intervals.

The class vill definitely not raffleoff Riss Massachusetts this year, asdid their '61 plredecessolrs. Instead, ac-cording to Pitts, an all-out effort w-illbe nlace totwards devising anotherequally unique class raffle. Rumor hasit that the prize this year may be anall-expense-paid trip to New York.

Larry Pitts, who has a deep drawlvthat gives him aiway as a Southerner-at first meeting, hails from Alexan-dria, Louisiana. While in High Schoolhe served on Student Council, playedfootball, basketball and track, andspent mnany hours editing his classyearbook.

At the Institute, besides his interestin Course VI, Larry hopes to do somefancy diving on the freshman sw\-inl-ningi team, and to play laclrosse in thespr'ing. But his main concern is thedevelopment of class unity.

Like Father, Like SonTony Rogers, new class 7P, is no10

stranger to political circles - hisfather is the U.S. Attorney General.Tony makes his home in Bethesda,Maryland. He selrved in high schoolas tlreasurer of his graduating class,member of the football and basketballteams, and sang w\ith the glee club.

In his spare time he operates a hamiradio station and plays a guitar withhis own jazz combo.

Here at MIT, Tony miakes his deci-sion for Course XVI. He has his owndisk jockey show on WTBS, selves onPRC, and looks foraard to doing somewvork with the MIT Glee Club.

"Getting my class out of debt Nillbe the biggest job before me," saysGeorge Dodson, new secretary - treas-urel-, who hails from Chickasha, Okla-homa. In high school George was in-terested in student government,served as class treasurer and a mem-ber of the student council, and playedbasketball. His Oklahoma home isideal for hunting, which he enjoys do-ing to the tune of his bayling pack ofhounds. Here, he majors in Course VI,and sits as coxswain for the freshmancrew tealn.

Beer and Steak FrySubstituted for SteelIn Bldg. 35 Foundry

The Student Metallurgical Societylast Thursday night held its annualBeer and Steak Firy in the Founcdry ofBuilding 35. Though traditionallyplanned as a Course III affair, theparty this year drew instructors, stu-dents, and Techretaries from ,all cor-ners of the Institute.

The large casting frames, whichnormally hold little more than sandand hot metal, wIere converted intocharcoal grilles laden with steaks; thehigh temperature ovens baked pota-toes instead of steel; and the "clien-tele" absorbed beer instead of knowl-edge. Instead of the droning of aprofessor's voice, the powerful strainsof the traditional drinking songs metthe visitor's ears.

Aside froom a slight financial loss,Scott Latimer '59, president of theSMS, reported that the party was acomplete success - a feeling sharedparticularly by the small group of stu-dents and Techretaries who quietlyswayed home about 4 a.m. the nextmorning.

Maser Research atLincoln Earns Nat'lElectroanics Awards

A major national scientific award,the National Electronics ConferenceAnnual Award, has been awarded totwo Lincoln Laboratory scientists. Dr.Alan L. McWhorter (Sc.D. 1955) andDr. Jamnes W. Meyer shared the awardwith Mr. Peter D. Strum, folrmerly ofthe Ewen-Knight Corporation, for apaper entitled "Noise TernperatureMeasurement on a Solid State Maser."The paper was chosen for scholarship,originality, importance, and clarity, asstated at a special luncheon meeting inChicago last week. The authors eachreceived an Award certificate and ashare of the $500.00 prize.

The Lincoln Laboratory has been inthe forefront of American research onMasers. The word Maser is an acro-nym, coming from Microwave Amplifi-cation by Stimulated Emission of Ra-diation. The award-winning paper wasone of the first presentations of prac-tical results from the recent researchinto Solid State Physics. The Maser isa crystal having a very low inherentnoise level, enabling it to act as anamplification system of very greatsensitivity. They are planned for usein radlo telescopes and radars to am-plify very weak signals at high fre-quencies with a minimum of distortion.

$100,000 GrantedFor Research Here

The National Science Foundationhas announced four research grants tothe Institute totalling nearly one hun-dred thousand dollars. Recipient ofthe largest grant, of $31,600, is Asso-ciate Professor John F. Elliott, for re-search in metallurgy. Professor HurdS. Willett of Meteorology has received$26,000 for study of solar problems.

The other recipients are John W.Winchester, Assistant Professor ofGeology, who received $23,000; andJohn S. Waugh, Assistant Pro'essorin Chemrnistlr, who received $16,000 forstudies in nuclear magnetic resonance.Each of these grants is for a full re-sealrch program, and extends over along term of from two to five years.

When "Rush" RustsGood old American usage is about to suffer another

blow. It is again time for those few who stand by tradition,however inexpedient it may be, to gird themselves for thecoming battle over another little word. And, in the faceof too many plausibly practical arguments, all they cananswer is "But this is the way it's always been." Sad torelate, IFC has a motion on the floor which calls forchanging that venerable, memory-evoking name "Rush"Week to a flat, sterile, instituational-sounding "Fraternity"Week.

And why? Because "Rush" and the idea of "rushing"are believed, at least in the minds of the motion's spon-sors, to carry a dubious connotation which may discouragefreshman participation in "that" week, or may cause fresh-man parents to suspect the integrity and good intent of thewhole business. Or it may be that the old term failsproperly to reflect the eminently glad-handed, businesslikeattitude of ICF's leaders.

Alas! The time has truly come when words do the workof deeds, and advertising, in whatever form, is king. But,by all means, let's be consistent; those freshmen who cometo Fraternity Week will have to be known as "Fratees"(pronunciation left to you), and the current rule whichoutlaws spending money on a rushee during the summer-will have to read: "No fraternity shall incur any expensefraternizing with a fratee before the opening of FraternityWeek!"

All the glamor and wily competition of Rush Week willsoon be gone, too. It is proposed that an impartial com-mittee of fraternity men greet freshmen upon their arrivalin Boston, and escort them to their dormitory quarters. Itis also suggested that pre- and post-Fraternity Week "cri-tiques" be held to discuss, in a chummy atmosphere, thegood and bad aspects of the week's events. Rush Week willbe made a bed of roses for the freshmen-which it isn't andnever can be. The very real problems of accepting the rightbid or of getting a bid at all, as the case may be, will onlybe obscured, not reduced, by the present big-happy-familytrend in Rush Week.

It all smacks of togetherness-that movement currently invogue which aims at bringing outsiders into the middle, atminimizing the differences among people, at investingagg,,regates of individuals with an abstract personality. Weare told we have responsibilities to others. But the feelingof responsibility has grown in such a way that it cannot beanything but shallow. It has been impersonalized, standard-ized,... and negated. -SWW

Before our .meeting, General McCormack was explainin,the story of Daedulus to a visitor. He gave a skillful ac-count of the Greek hero's exploits in Crete. General Mc-Cormack is a scholar. He has combined the classical educa-tion with that of the military and the technical. But perhapsit is best to call James McCormack, Jr., a scholarly southerngeneral. It is no surprise to learn from him that he comesfrom Savannah. Even the pictures of Washington, D.C.which hang in his office remind one more of the Souththan of the nation's capitol.

General McCormack was born in 1910. He went to amilitary school before attending the United States MilitaryAcademy. It was after his emergence among the ranks ofthe army engineers and before attending MIT that hewent to Oxford University as a. Rhodes Scholar. He hasjust returned from a visit to England, and he said that hisold college was anxious to make him chairman of theirU. S. fund raising campaign. He declined the position with

the comment that he had plenty of fund raising activityat another school-MIT. ' ' '

General McCormack is an administrator. As Vice Presi-dent of MIT, he describes his job as doing that which thePresident would like to do himself but hasn't the time.

More specifically, this means that he is in charge of researchadministration. Under General McCormack falls the super-vision on behalf of the Institute of Lincoln Laboratory, theInstrumentation Laboratory, the Physical Science Study pro-

ject, the Center for International Studies, the fast growingCenter for Communication Science.

It was at MIT that General McCormack received hisMaster's Degree in Civil Engineering-Course I. And itwas in the U. S. Air Force that he attained the rank ofMajor General and the directorship of Research and De-velopment. General McCormack is at present also Presidentof the Institute for Defense Analyses, an organizationwhich he described as not connected with the DefenseDepartment and concerned with arranging "Gaither panels"and Washington conferences. The next day he was flyingto Cuba by way of Washington, D.C. in this capacity.

Though General McCormack said that much of the re-search policy is the work of Dr. Carl Floe '35, (III), hedid give a glimpse of what was happening.

He said that the Department of Defense sponsored re-search at MIT was at about as high a level as MIT expectedto pursue. He went on to say that some of the aspects'ofgovernment support were notorious. The June 31 to June31 financing, he admitted, was definitely frustrating. Thereare times when a person gets stuck around June or July.The classified aspect of much of the work is also not inkeeping with the idea of the school. He quite definitelystated that MIT will always be first an educational institu-tion and that all other activities are to supplement theeducation of the students. He was, no doubt, referring toLincoln Laboratory when he said that it is sometimesnecessary to recognize things along these lines.

It was heartening to hear General McCormack say thatthere are many projects that MIT could take on but neverwill because they do not meet .the educational requirement.He mentioned that the research program is always evolv-ing, and there is always room for new things deserving of

healthy support ...

Though supportby industry wasvery good, he didsay that th er ewere a few pro-jects deserving ofmore supportth an they hadfound. He notedthe program for :;?/preparation o fteachers and some I~il "'very lively ideas ' 'concerning a very : ,:,high energy, con- ' ' . . . . . - ',.t

General McCormack is a success. He is married and hastwo children, and he lives in a house on St. John's Road.

This doesn't make him the success, however. He is a suc-cess because he is a scholar. His education has made himfree. He, like the skillful Daedulus, has been able to con-struct wings by which to soar above the confines of thesmall and vain.

Warbling WelleslyitesSaturday night we were among the elite of Ivy League

Collegia at the Wellesley Junior Show. The productionof Wellesley's class of 1960 was called "Call It Red"partly because this is the class color (original, what) andotherwise because the musical was a takeoff on America'sdisproportionately huge, high pressure cosmetics industry,specifically Revlon (called Redlon in the show). The ideaof the thing is that a complex beauty salon with every-thing from greasy face creams to vigorous athletic trainingto headshrinking psychiatrists is more helpful to a woman'sbeauty than any lipstick a scientist can brew. A few egg-heads might argue with this, but it does seem rather obvious,and the girls have fun proving it.

The large Alumni Hall, packed to the windowsills, wasvery poor acoustically for a musical, and in general thegirls had trouble filling the place with sound. Consequentlythe show-stopping numbers of the evening were done bythose with the loudest voices, and deservedly so. MartyHurly, playing a Sargent College type of athletic trainer,sang in a robust, Ethel Merman style and had the body togo with it.

The whole thing was a pleasant experience in an atmo-sphere where you could almost feel you were one of thoseten-to-three boys up the river. However, the slide rule isout again for another five days - maybe.

As a sharp contrast to MIT's in-crease in the workload, Boston Univer-sity is making things easier for itsbudding scientists by joining a groupof almost 300 colleges and universitiesoffering college credit to qualified TVw-atchers.

The first nation-wide TV course forcollege credit, "Continental Classroom:Atomic Age Physics," will consist ofan intensive course on the subjects ofclassical physics (mechanics, sound,optics, heat, electricity and magne-tism) during the first term, and aseries of lectures on atomic and nu-clear physics dulring the second.

Demonstrations and experinments willbe an integral part of the course. En-rolled students, in addition to view-ing the lectures, wvill meet in weeklylaboritory-discussion sessions with se-lected nmembers of the Boston Univer-sity physics faculty.

Harvey E. White, professor and

vice-chairman of the Physics Depart-ment of the University of Californiaat Berkeley, is the instructor. DeanGeorge HarIison of the MlIT School ofScience is scheduled to appear on oneof the future programs.

Persons qualified for receiving thecredits are: high school science teach-ers, college students, gifted highschool students, engineers, and certainother scientifically adept viewers.

The programs, which are producedby the NBC television network, beganlast week on WGBH-TV, Channel 2,and will run Monday through Fridayat G p.m.

Boston ULniversit w-ill give fourhours of college credit each seminesterto those who complete the course.Viewers who wish to enroll shouldapply by telephone or letter to theDirector of University Extension, 685Conmlonwealt h Ave., Tel. CO 7-2i00,ext. 226.
