The Office of the Dean for Student Affairs and the Comnmit-tee on Discipline would handlecomplaints under the policy. Thetwo) groups would determinewhether the policy was violated,and what sanctions would beappropriate.

Council seeks feedback

MIT's Academic Council,which is composed of the Insti-tute's top academic officials, hasdiscussed the pornography pro-posal and appears to support it,according to Jacoby and Keyser.But before acting, the counlcil"would like to hear commentsand suggestions from faculty,students and staff."

Jacoby and Keyser have beencirculating a draft copy of theproposal, which is the product ofa year's worth of deliberation,among student and facultygroups. The current draft hasbeen reviewed by the FacultyCommittee for Student Affairsand the Faculty Policy Commit- tee, and reflects those discus-sions. The proposal has also beendiscussed with the Graduate Stul-denlt Council and sent to Under-graduate Association PresidentPaul Antico '91, Jacoby said.;

Thle full faculty is scheduled todiscuss the draft proposal at itsNov. 1S meeting.

Last week, Jacoby and Keysersent letters -to MIT hosusemasters-and to Neal H.hEDorow, ODSAad'visor- to, independent living-groups,. urging chei to Aebte'the proposal widely among stul-dents, to inform them of theproposal, stimulate discussion,and seek their reactions and suggestions."

Curren~t policy hasno blanket ban

The current pornography poli- cy does not prohibit the use of IMIT facilities for showing porno- graphic films, but it does regulate jthe time, place, and manner in Iwhich they may be shown. A tgroup wishing to show an unrat-ed or X-rated film must have anInstitute committee review thefilm in advance. If the film doestnot meet the standards of thescreening committee, it may not

By Niraj S. DesaiThe Academic Council appears

to support a new MIT Policy onPornography that would prohibitthe showing of -pornographicfilms in Institute common areas,according to a letter from FacultyChair Henry D. -Jacoby and As-sociate Provost S. Jay Keyser.But the proposed policy is tenta-tive, Jacoby said, and is still'every much up for discussion."

The proposal states that, ex-cept for educational or disciplin-ary purposes, "no pornographicfilms shall be shown in commonareas" - including classrooms,lecture halls, corridors, and dor-mitory common rooms. Filmsshown by students in their ownrooms would not be affected.

The policy is aimed at filmsthat depict the degradation orabuse of individuals, Jacobysaid. For example, films meetingthis definition might present sulb-jects as enjoying rape or humilia-tion, or as sexual objects to bephysically abused. A policy onsuch films is needed, accordingto the proposal, because "every-one who studies or works herehas a right to enter and use [com-mon areas] without being sub-

|;( Somputing"at comparable schools.

Another priority is to examinethe organization of academiccomputing, Jacksonl said. Thegroup will -have to determinewhether development of curricu-lulm softare'sol -be the taskof -. depanmentsis _-scheols;--r-a,centrals staff as the, current lackof a formal structure has givenrise to some confusion.

enthz~ood adBEl gmezto fleoswords was "'a moderate way" to soften the advertisement, he add-ed. He said that in the foulr yearsin which the telephone directorieshave included advertising, onlyone other advertisement has beenchanged.

John Pratt, an associate direc-tor of the Whitehlead Institute forBiomedical Research and a mem-ber of Planned Parenthood, dis-approved of the changes. Hesaid, "In an adult communitylike MIT, this kind of censoringdoesn't seem appropriate." Headded the same advertisement ap-peared, uncut, in last year'sNynex yellow pages.

Kummer said she complainedto University Directories aboutthe advertisement last year, andadded she did not have anyone tocontact at MIT. Wilson admittedthat there were "some communi-cations problems" with the com-pany, and that perhaps PlannedParenthood had not been toldabout the changes because some-one "just did not communicatewith them.' Wilson added he didnot receive any comments aboutthe advertisement after it waschanged.

W~ilson added that while itmight look like he is "trying toskirt the issue, people know whatPlanned Parenthood does." Hesaid he (wanted to proceed care-fully, because it is a very sensitiveissue to everyone."

Kummer expressed, outrage atthe changes and said thatPlanned Parenthood `,Mll not dobusiness with someone who won'tgive access to women forabsolutely vital services.

The proposed policy differsfrom the present one, Jacobysaid, in that it limits its scope tofilms that use sexually explicitmaterial to dehumanize or abusesubj ects, rather than films whichare-merely X-rated or. unrated.Jacoby said he did not foresee aproblem in deciding what filmsmeet the policy's criteria.

The draft also does not includea provision for prior restraint,Jacoby said. Groups or individ-uals wanting to show films wouldnot be required. to have themscreened in advance. O:nly after acomplaint had been filed wouldthe ODSA or COD involvethemselves in a case.

In November 1987, the Com.-mittee on D~iscipline ruled unani-mously that the present pornog-raphy policy constituted " anexcessive restraint on freedom ofexpression at MIT.' The COD'sruling came in a case involvingAdam L. Dershowitz '89, whointentionally violated the policyin February 1987. The proposedpolicy is, in part, an attempt todeal with the COD's criticisms ofthe present policy, Jacoby said.

Members will also examine in-centives for faculty to developsoftware for courses. "Coursesare better as a result of [this in-terface], but it takes a lot of en-ergy to develop and implement,"he said. At present, one group offaculty members opposes aca-demic computing, another helpsdevelop much software, and thethird is waiting for the rightincentives to do so, according toJackson. Some faculty would liketenure committees to considerinvolvement in academiccomputing, he added.

Whether MIT should encour-age students to buy their own

computers remains to be investi-gated. Already, 21 colleges re-quire students to purchase com-puters, with other schools, likeDartmouth, "recommending"ownership of computers, he said.

Jackson stressed that ProjectAthena's "phase-out" was a com-mon misconception. "No one issaying whether it is the end ofoutside support or whether MITwill support the project with itsown money, but [academic com-putingl will continue to evolve,"he asserted. Some at MIT havementioned use of commerciallyavailable packages instead ofones developed at MIT to trimcosts, but the problem is that"MIT works ahead of others"and finds that much, of what isavailable is not advanced enough.

Professors write Dracula biographyThe real Dracula did not want to suck your blood~--

but he might have enjoyed watching it flow. Two histori-ans have brought Dracula to life in their new book titledDrcacula, Prince of Many Faces. The book takes a bite outof the Dracula myth, unearthing the man behind themonster. The real Dracula lived in Transylvania in the1400's. Vlad Dracula did not sport fangs or hide from thesun, but he did kill thousands of people in a grisly fash-ion - impaling them on the end of long spikes. By vari-ous estimates, he killed 40X000 to 100,000 people. Histori-an Raymond McNally and his Boston College colleague- the Romanian-born scholar Radu Florescu - havebeen researching the real Dracula for more than two de-cades. The two are hailed as "The Two Draculas" on- theBoston College campus, and rumor has it that if you

Mitchell warns SandinistasPresidential spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said yesterday

that the administration is watching and waiting to see ifNicaragua will continue a 19-month cease-fire with thecontra rebels. He would not talk about the possibility ofseeking lethal military aid for the contras. NicaraguanPresident Daniel Ortega has threatened to end the cease-fire -but has been under heavy opposition from otherCentral, American leaders. Ortega said he will make, adecision on the ceasefire today.

On Sunday, Senate -Majority Leader George Mitchelltold NBC that the threat from Ortega to call off hiscease-fire with the contras is 'a very unwise move." AndSenate GOP. leader Robert Dole said that he will intro-duce a resolution ori Tuesday condemning Ortega.

This latest flap in United States-Nicaraguan relationsbegan a few days ago in Costa Rica, where PresidentBush joined Central American leaders for a regional sum-mit. Ortega stunned the conference with his renounce-ment of the cease-fire accord, which Bush called "aSharnefiul blow to democracy.' The truce was a -prelude toNicaraguan elections planned for Feb. 25.

When you order the rancls, .Ke Jp u" " ".n.... ... t..of you are on house meal plans and have nothingbetter to do with, your Validine. than buy DomPerignon at $98 a bottle. Make sure that- everyonewho drinks is underage. Get thoroughly lit.

Now go to the office of James Tewhey, AssociateDean for Student Affairs. (Chances :are. he'll beworking late that night.) Stagger in, all fifty of you,and tell him where you got the booze. For addedeffect, show him exactly what you have eaten.

me

Keep in.mind as you read this that my purpose isnot to flame about ARA. Each of you has yourown horror story- a cockroach in the -fries, a bitof disease suspected in the sausage, and so on. I am-not writing this to complain about ARA, but tomake fun of it.

,Oktoberfest" came to Lobdell and stayed thereall of last week. Our food service captured thesights, smells, and, er, tastes ofIMunich in the fall.We were greeted by a cheap poster of a Germanman blowing into a brass instrument as two goldenbeer steins hovered on either side on him. At thefeatures line students were able to enjoy the taste of"knockwurst mit sauerkraut." (Get the doublemeaning of the word "mit"? So subtle, like theflavorirpg of the dish-itself.)

A crookedly photocopied "Oktobertest factSheet" stood in a plastic frame above the tasty en-trees. We learned from this sheet, among otherthings, that Germans have a considerable love ofnature and the country of Germany is conducive toromance. Many are deeply moved by trees, runningwater, and the animals of the forest." (Hey,Gianthert Let us go pick flowers by the Rhein, ja?)

But we must not dwell on the past. Our task now,as I see it, is to ensure that our intelligence is notsimilarly insulted next year. By this I mean weshould kick ARA's booty out of MIT for good.

® Wednesday: Have you noticed the prolifera-tion lately of lame little contests and Oktoberfest-like gimmicks? It's as if some executive deep in thebowels of ARA Central is thinking, If there's onething these MIT kids want, it's something to keeptheir minds off the food. It's a sweet thought, andone which bears emulation. Here's how.

Ten of you should punt all your classes Wednes-day and go. to an Athena cluster. Brainstorm, likethey do on thirtysomething, about phony food cou-pons and contests you think should be posted at thedining halls. Print up something along the.lines of"Buy one ounce of salad, get ten ounces free" and"Tell us what.you think ARA stands for - winnersget free champagne at Networks." Distribute theseliberally at your favorite dining halls. Each managerwill very likely think the others are responsible, andwill gladly honor your faux. paperwork.

a Thursday: I'm not an engineer, but I have afeeling some of you are. What would happen ifsomeone from-Course VI took apart a food servicecash registerl and iOgiged oiiut- exadtly how it works?Just to satisfy your natural curiosity, find out ifnegative money can be deducted. If it can't, well,you're an engineer. Fix the damn thing.. Now deduct negative eighty thousand dollars

from every undergraduate's account. Those of uswith refundable meal plans will be thinking of youwhen we get our tuition bill after four years andfind it paid in full.

Optionally, Thursday night food fights shall tian-spire at Baker, McCormick, MacGregor, and NextHouse.

® Friday: We are fed up. We must convince our-selves that our meal card symbolizes all that iswrong with the food service here. Everyone withone of these hideous plastic toys - 2500 of us or so-should drop it into an institute toilet and flushsimultaneously. With the resulting clog in the sewersystem, ARA will have no source of ... nevermind. Forget I said it.

You get the point. We don't have the passion toact as we would have in the sixties. Boycotts andsit-ins are passe, anyway. If a few, of us get togetherand follow my Evacuation Week plan, we may findone day that we have driven ARA's business toHarvard.

I

My plan requires only five days of your time,starting Monday the sixth. Through sustained efforton your part during ARA Evacuation Week, itwon't be long before we are once more. eating in aninsect- and disease-free cafeteria.

A Monday: Welcome to the pizza line atLobdell. Remember how all this month you've beeneating slice after slice in order to win Itza Pizza'sVCR? Well, this is the last day of the contest. Iwant two hundred of you each to eat a slice withsausage. Eat another. Feel sick yet? Think about thenight, almost one year ago, when two students ateexactly the same thing and got gastroenteritis. Any-thing yet? Good. Go to the medical center at fourin the morning, all of you, and tell the doctorwhere you've been eating lately.

kitchens and -bathrooms sharedby many. Green has the attrac-tion that a majority of the dormrooms are singles, whereas a veryhigh percentage of Ashdownrooms are doubles. As far as Iknow, the new Albany Streetdorm will consist mostly of two-and three-bedroom apartmentssimilar to Tang but will mostlikely be nicer. It seems to methat the Albany Street dorm maybecome the most desirable placeto live and Ashdown might be-come the least, especially sincefor most graduate students shar-ing a single room with someoneis the least desirable living op-tion. If the above is true, itwould seem natural for Ashdownto become the dorm reserved fornew graduate students who needa place to stay while apartmenthunting.

I propose, instead, that nodorm be singled out for newgraduate students. Preferenceswill work naturally. Additionally,graduate students should be ableto move from dorm to dorm tohelp even out the selectionprocess.

I am writing in response to thetwo letters that dealt with the fly-ers recently distributed by theMIT Police Association ["PoliceAssociation flier has racist under-tones," and "Police union mem-bers deliver stunning insult,"Oct. 27]. The letters assert thatthe portion of the flyers describ-ing Cambridge gangs was a racialattack by the Campus Police and,as one letter said, "a stunning in-sult to the Institute's minoritycommunity."

I assert that this accusation istotally false, and, furthermore, isitself an unwarranted attack onthe Campus Police. I ask the au-thors of the letters, "Were you atall aware of the origin of the in-formation about the Cambridgegangs?" In fact, the descriptionsprinted by the Campus Policecame directly from the Cam-bridge Police Department, andwere first presented to the Cam-pus Police during roll call as a re-

the word for both people who areliving and people who have died.Many people live for years withAIDS. Calling them victims rein-forces the myth that being diag-nosed is an instant death sen-tence. People who are living withAIDS don't want their lives cutshort in our minds. The wordvictim equates living with thesyndrome to dying from it.

Before the article was printedwe spoke with the authors aboutusing the term "person withAIDS" instead of "AIDS victim."They were sensitive and changedthe words in their article. Whenit was printed, however, the per-son writing the headline did notknow about our objection to theterm. We contacted The Tech'seditor in chief and explained tohim why the term is offensiveand requested that an erratum bepublished. He 'refused, sayingthat it was not important enoughand -that he did not see why theterm was offensive.

Although he didn't understandwhy the word is offensive, heshould have been sensitive tothose who find it so. If a friend.is bothered by a nickname, youstop using it, whether or not you.understand why. There are more

than I00,000 people in the Unit-ed States with AIDS and manyothers who are personally affect-ed by the epidemic. The term onthe front page of The Tech wasoffensive to all of these people.They are important enough forthe column-inch it takes to printan erratum.

There is a lot of misunder-standing about AIDS. The mediais one of the main sources of in-accurate or' insensitive informa-tion. Publications, including TheTech, need to start taking respon-sibility for the role they play inthe public's understanding of theepidemic.

Kristen Gardner '90Rachel Harmon '90

We are writing in response toyour article about-Sidney Borum,a person with AIDS who spoke.at MIT ["AIDS victim gives first-hand account," Oct. 241. Overallthe article was. well written andsensitive to the issues surround-ing AIDS. However, we werebothered that the headline usedthe term "AIDS victim."

There is much stigma attachedto AIDS and people who have it.The re is a lot of discriminationand a lack of understanding. It isbelieved by many that only cer-tain groups of people get AIDS.Attributing the disease to others,separate from ourselves, we con-clude that there is no reason forus to be concerned with it. But inthe next few years, AIDS willtouch all of our lives. In additionto facing our own risk, we mustbe sensitive to those whom theepidemic touches now.

One way to separate ourselvesfrom those others, those whohave AIDS, is to use the term"victim." A victim is not a per-son, it is a being characterized byillness. Victims have lost all iden-tity as humans and are seen onlyin their role as sufferers.

"Victim" blurs the line be-tween illness and death. We use

infestation in a public dining fa-cility is not in accordance withstate or local health codes. If it isillegal, why doesn't ARA admit itand try to correct it? Or is ARAmerely maintaining their viewthat nothing is illegal until some-one dies and ARA is sued? Whyare they so reluctant to listen totheir clientele and at least try toaccommodate their wishes? Istrongly doubt that evading theissue will help ARA secure theMIT community's trust andsupport:

Instead of getting an apologyor even an assurance that ARA isdoing something about the prob-lem, I was presented with the at-titude that I was "lucky" that thecockroach was relatively small insize and therefore less harmful tomy health, perhaps.

This may have been a poor at-tempt at jocularity, but I am al-most positive that the cockroach

Last Saturday I went to Lob-dell Dining Hall for lunch with afriend. Wate sat down at a tablenear the window and finished ourmeal. As I happened, to lookdown on my tray, I saw a brown-colored, 1 Y-centimeter-long bugmake its way through myunfinished french fries.

I had never seen a cockroachbefore, so I asked my friend. ifthe brown bug was a cockroach.He jostled the paper plate to geta better view of the bug and as-sured me that it was, indeed, acockroach. He trapped the cock-roach with a cup, but I still feltuneasy.

I located the manager on dutyand expressed my concern that itmay be unsanitary to have cock-roaches in an eating or kitchenfacility. He took a- look at the

Before the "quick solution"graduate housing proposal de-scribed by the presidents of Ash-down, Green, and Tang Halls["Give Inew graduate studentstemporary space," Oct. 24] be-comes a reality that no one canor will choose to live with, Isuggest they and the rest of thegraduate community consider thefollowing.

They propose that all spaces inthe new Albany Street buildingbe reserved for new graduate stu-dents who need a place 'to staywhile apartment hunting so that.a high turnover rate (75 percentby their predictions) "would notturn the dorms into impersonalapartment buildings." This entireproposal implies that the existingdorms are more desirable thanthe Albany Street building will beand that the new Albany Streetdorm will be the best-suited fortemporary housing for those whoneed a place to stay whileapartment hunting.

Before the proposal is consid-ered, the setup of the living spacein all the dorms should be re-viewed. Ashdown and Green Hallconsist almost entirely of singleand double rooms with common

ument "racist." There was no in-dication whatsoever in the Cam-pus Police flyer that a specificrace or races were involved in theCambridge gangs. Why, then, hasthis suddenly become an issue ofracism? I contend that the criesof racism are nothing more thandisreputable political tactics em-ployed by the two authors whoare attempting to turn the MITcommunity against the CampusPolice and their recent negotia-tions for a new work contract.Such underhanded tactics arereprehensible. I findthis a "stun-ning insult" to my intelligenceand to my belief that the CampusPolice are dedicated, hard-working individuals who performan invaluable duty of keeping theMIT campus safe for studentlife. Any attempt to denigratetheir reputation in the interest ofpolitics is offensive and shouldnot be permitted.

port from the Cambridge PoliceDepartment. Does this change,your view of the :'racial under-tones" any? If not, then youshould confront the CambridgePolice Department and call themracists.

What is most amazing aboutthis whole ordeal" though, is thefact that there was no mention ofrace in the entire document! No-where were we told to discrimi-nate against any race (or, for thatmatter, anyone at all) solely onthe basis of the clothes they werewearing. In truth, the flyer was areminder to the MIT communityto be cautious when traveling inCambridge, and a warning that aconfrontation with youths of anyrace who are wearing the clothinglisted in the flyer could bedangerous.

certos, on fortepiano., His performances*with the Academy of Ancient Music, con-.ducfed by Christopher Hogwood - theonly complete set to' be given a three starrating by the new Penguin CD guide -are rapturous, finding stronger expressionsof joy as well as deeper echoes of poignan-cy than those by performers on moderninstruments. The recordings of the thirdand fourth concertos are especially mov,

-ing, made to be played again and again[ and again. Thank goodness CDs don't

wear out.Lubin-plays on modern pianos as well as

on early instruments, and last Saturday pi--loted the Jordan Hall Steinway through

EBeethoven's third. Lubin found lyricism inIthe middle movement -Largo -the ten--derness of his playing here matched by the

orchestral accompaniment. Lubin's ac-count of the first movement cadenza was

*involved and full of imagination; there;was a brittleness to some of Lubin's ac-

count of the outer two movements, howev-*er, and some blurring of his bass notes.

Overall, he seemed to have less controlthan over an early instrument, and attimes seemed to be holding back as ifscared of the relative massiveness of theSteinway sound.

The orchestra did not, furthermore,consistently maintain a sympathetic rela-tionship with the soloist. The strings, inparticular, seemed indelicate; given

-Lubin's intimate approach to the work,this was not helpful.

inability to pay for more rehearsals is cur-rently preventing the orchestra from beingdeveloped to its full potential.

The orchestra's audience last Saturdaywas large and enthusiastic (it included 144subscribers from MIT), suggesting strongsupport for an important Boston institu-tion which deserves more public as well as

playing Beethovten's piano C'oncerto and Humanities.

SINFONOVA began its seventh seasonwith-a rarity : a performance of thecomplete music Beethoven com-posed for Goethe's tragedy,

Egmont. Despite a few measures of harsh-ness in the stringsi it was hugely success-ful. The well-kcnown overture was playedboldly. D'Anna Fortulnato sang the two lie-der nicely: the second one', Freudvoll undleidvoll was movingly sung with a nicetouch of gentle dreaminess. NarratorDenis Boyer -the WBUR announcer -was rather weak in his reading ofEgmont's Melodrama, but the orchestrafilled in for the lack of feeling in his voice.

Not all of the four orchestral interludesin the work are of equal stature, but con-ductor Aram Gharakebian developedmeaning where it was to be found: thefirst interlude was well-nuanced and had asense of poetry to it. The Victory Sym-phony brought the piece to a stirringconclusion.

D'Anna Fortunato next sang Wagner'sWesendonk Lieder beautifully and with amature understanding of the songs' sensu-ality. Orchestral playing was sometimes onthe thick side, but competent nonetheless.

MIT SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA-Conducted by David EpsteinWorks by Ernest Bloch and Sibeliits.Kresge Auditorium, Saturday, October 28.

'Most impressive was the thrilling ac-count of Sibelius Symphony No. 2 in D.The strings were all wonderfully disci-plined and the balance within the orches-tra as a whole was such as to ensure a clar-ity which permitted enjoyment of all thedetails in the score. The darker side of thescore was brought out by piquant windand earthy brass sonorities set againstcontrolled but expressive strings.

The cello pizzicato of the second move-ment was impressive. The tense opening-6fthe third movement- Ient urgency.Throughout the performance,' the workwas conveyed expansively, and with a'senseof grandeur, sometimes brought out bysubtle coloration, sometimes thrust for-ward with heroic abandon. Most credit inthe' frenetic excitement department goes tothe brass section, which performed withunceasing flair and precision. The MITSymphony made the concluding Allegromoderato into a real thriller, climacticallypowerful but complex as well: somethingto really get the audience on their seatedges. Bravo!

The concert had begun with ErnestBloch's Concerto Grosso for StringOrchestra and Piano Obbligato. The open-ing Prelude was crisply done and dramat-ic; the middle movements were played withsensitivity and the Fugue brought the workto an incisive conclusion. The strings pro-

'duced some wonderful textures with onlymomentary lapses in coordination. Thepiano, however, was submerged for toomuch of the time and did not stand: outa's.....it should have done. All in all, nonethe-.

These two and46 Mr. Jones,", from the 'Talking Heeads'Naked album, worked well, combining theband's rhythms with 'Byrne's vocals andguitar.

Byrne danced, too,but ]his movements seemed a bit unnaturalcompared to those who grew up dancingthtfe samba and the bolero. The only timehe seemed right at home was when theyplapyed "Mr. J9ones."If Byrne seems to be, as- he said, "'a mu-Lsical cruise ship" right now, visiting coun-tries through their music and culture, it isnot without sincerity; he obviously lovesand adm~ires the music.

passed to a wide-open TonyLapes '90 for the two-point con-version. Just that easily (less thantwo minutes had transpired),MIT had an eight point lead.

After an Assumption drive wasstopped, the Beavers went rightback to work. This drive appar-

--e ntly stalled, but on fourth-and-eight, LaHousse took the ball ona fake punt and passed it 21yards to Moose to keep the drivealive. Then, LaHousse took over,ran the ball down to the 10, andthen pushed it home from there,15-0.

The Greyhounds then ran off athree-play-and-out drive. MITthen proceeded to march the balldown the field. Moose had ap-parently scored on a 56 yard run,but a holding penalty broughtthat back. Despite running off 11plays, the Beavers had to puntfor the only time in the first half.

Assumption took over andonce again failed to move theball. This drive was an altogetherunimpressive three plays and twoyards. A punt gave MIT back theball.

This time, the Beavers were notto be denied. Day ran for 21yards, Moose rumbled for sevenmore and then LaHousse ram-bled for another 26. LaHousse'srun would have been longer, buthe had scored after the 26, and itwas 21-0.

Assumption then managed toget a first down on their nextdrive. However, they made up forthis when they were forced topunt three plays later by botchingthe snap. Roland Melchor '93then tackled the punter, givingMIT the ball on Assumption's42.

By Shawn MastrianThe football celebrated home-

coming and gave the Class of '56one to remember as it thrashedAssumption, 56-6.

Everything worked for theBeavers as they raised theirrecord to 4-1-1. Both the startingoffense and defense played flaw-lessly and were given the secondhalf to catch rays on the sideline.The offense scored a touchdownon every possession except one,putting 42 points on the board,and the defense only allowed As-sumption three first downs ineight possessions. It was by allstandards a one-sided contest. William ChulThe Tech

The 56-6 score did not lie. The . .Beavers totally dominated every C Sfacet of the game.
