MASSACHUSETTS TUESDAY, APRIL 30, 1974 FIVE CENTS-By Kevin B. Miller

The ad hoc Committee onGrading, originally expected tomlake its report to the facultythis May, has been having diffi-culty reaching'decisions, and willprobably not be reporting untilearly next fall. ,

The committee hopes ulti-mately to make recommen-dations which will give a grademore meaning to both the stu-dent and to any other groupsinterested in evaluating the stu-dent.

The Committee, which eon-sists of both faculty and stu-dents, was appointed last yearby President Wiesner to studythe grading situation at MIT and

make any suggestions to thefaculty that it deemed approprin-ate. The chairman of the com-mittee is Professor of MetallurgyRoy Kaplow.

According to Kaplow, severalproblems in the present systemhave been brought to the atten-tion of the committee. Some ofthe major ones concern:

*arbitrary grade assignment,which tends to happen in largecourses where tests - whichrarely test everything in thecourse - are the major scalingdevice used for grades, and thereis little or no personal inputabout the student. If a studentshould happen to grasp a parti-cularly difficult concept verywell, it might never show inhis/her grade.

*lack of uniformity, both ingrading and in course content.Grades may not be consistentfrom term to term, or evenfrom instructor to instructor inthe same course. Actual con-tent of courses tends to varywidely, depending on the depart-ment in which the course istaken. More importantly, thecontent of many courses variesfrom semester to semester, with-out any outward change in thecourse's content. Two studentsthen, could get the same grade inthe same course number, and yetnot have learned the same mate-rial.

*grade inflation, a problem atcolleges across the nation, hastaken it's toll at MIT, where thevast majority of grades awardedare now A's and B's.

*grades for laboratory anddesign courses, as well as teamprojects, where it is not necessa-rily clear exactly who is receiv-ing the recognition and for whatkind of work.

All of these tend to reducethe potential value of a grade, nomatter how it is being viewed. Intrying to formulate improve-ments, the committee has beentaking an in-depth look into theways that a grade is interpreted,both inside and outside the Insti-tute.

Internally, grades serve as animportant signal to departmentsthat a student in one of itscourses, or a degree candidate, isundergoing difficulty. They arealso an important source ofinput to a student's advisor, towarn him of any academic diffi-culty that the student may beencountering.

The matter of how a grade isinterpreted externally, saidKaplow, is much harder to dealwith. It tends to depend entirelyon who is doing the interpreting.

Perhaps the only agreementthat the committee has come tois that a grade should reflecthow much a student has learnedin a particular subject. Thiswould tend to indicate thatsome sort of large scale gradingstandardization should be em-ployed. This could lead to oneof two major problems. 1) Stan-dardizing on a national levelwould tend to make coursematerial orient itself with onlythose things which are tested onthe national level. 2) Trying tostandardize the value of a gradejust at MIT (presumably adjust-ing the overall scale downward),would require an intense effortby the faculty over an undefin-able period of time, and mightresult in a disadvantage for MITstudents when they try to com-pete for outside openings, par-ticularly at graduate schools.

Chairman of the Corporation,told rhe Tech that he receivedinformation on the eight namedMIT students in early 1973. Heexamined the information and,"translated it into tabularform," before channeling it toProfessor of MathematicsHartley Rogers, then Chairmanof the Faculty. Rogers, on thebasis of this and other informa-tion, made the decision not todiscipline the implicated stu-dents.

By Michael GarryThe Tech has learned that

MIT decided last year not toimplement disciplinary measuresagainst students who werenamed in the "Term Paper Scan-dal" as having bought termpapers from any of the group ofcompanies selling research pa-pers to students.

John Silber, President of Bos-ton University, in a speech lastmonth to the American Associa-tion for the Advancement ofScience, announced that BU hadobtained files of customer namesfrom the companies in a suit inlate 1972. BU made these filesavailable to other Boston areacolleges. But Silber complainedthat the other universities appar-ently intended to do nothingabout their students who wereinvolved and were, in effect,"sweeping under the rug thewhole scandal of term paperproduction."

The scandal came about inlate 1972 when Boston Univer-

'sity, with the moral and finan-cial support of seven other uni-versities in the Boston area, in-cluding MIT, launched a legalsuit against several companiesthat had been prosperously andconspicuously selling term pap-ers.

As a result of the suit compa-nies such as Champion Research,International Term Papers, Qua-lity Bullshit, among others, werebanned from operation in theCommonwealth of Massachu-setts.

At the time of the suit, thefiles of the term paper compa-nies were seized by a court orderand made available to BostonUniversity, which offered anyinformation in them to the otheruniversities supporting the suit.MIT was given the names ofeight students who were men-tioned in the files, along with

By Dave DanfordEight of MIT's most distin-

guished undergraduate innova-tors were awarded a total of$1000 Sunday at a dinner of theEta Kappa Nu Society for theirinnovative designs of engineeringdevices.

Carl N. Bielenberg '74, for hisautomated programmable tapeand record accessing machine,and Rinaldo Spinella '74, for his

digital torquemeter, won $300each in the Innovation Contestsponsored by Eta Kappa Nu.

Albert Chin '75 won the$100 third prize with a deisgn ofa bicycle powered snow vehicle.Honorable mentions, and $50awards were given to MichaelButts '74, Edward Giamo '74,Gordon Sahfiela '74, YvonneWalkowsky '74, and LeeLeiterm an' 77.

Bielenberg said that his win-ning innovation was based on anidea he had had for some timebefore the contest was an-nounced. The contest, accordingto Bielenberg, served to motivatehim to develop his project. Heplans to build a prototype andattempt to market his inventionthrough the MIT InnovationCooperative.

Noting that only abouttwelve MIT undergraduates par-ticipated in the competition,Bielenberg said he was "a littledisappointed that not manypeople entered the contest."

Professor Y.T. Li, director ofthe MIT Innovation Center, cha-racterized the contest, in its firstyear, as a success. "I'm veryencouraged by the way there isso much latent potential on thiscampus," said Li.

The contest, according to Li,is part of a much larger innova-tion program. "Our main objec-tive is this: we would like toencourage the students to comeup with marketable schemes. Wehelp everybody as much as wecan, providing guidance."

Li pointed out that the in-novation program is distinctfrom UROP, in that the goal iss p e c i f i c a lly to nurturemarketable ideas. "We are not ascholarship hand-out organiza-tion. We have a much moreselective objective," he said. Lisaid that the contest was oneway of getting the attention ofstudent innovators and findingout who they are.

By Befrf Halstead(First ofr a series of three)For almost three years now,

the Technology and CultureSeminar at MIT has been focus-ing on investigating unconven-tional theories of knowledge andnovel outlooks on the relation-ship between technology andsociety.

Presently, the Technologyand Culture Seminar is a loose-ly-organized group of aboutthree dozen faculty and a hand-ful of students concerned withexploring these issues. Theircrowded calendar includes pub-lic lectures by distinguished visi-tors to MIT, and also a couple ofseries of private meetings anddiscussions.

The Imoving spirit behindthe group is the Reverend JohnCrocker, the Episcopal Chaplainat MIT. He was primarily respon-sible for bringing to life thecurrent incarnation of the semi-

nar, in the fall of 1971. He hassince then done the lion's share ofthe hard work needed to line upspeakers, take care of otheradministrative details, and sellthe MIT administration on theidea.

The original Technology andCulture Seminar came into exis-tence back in 1961, when theReverend Myron Bloy, the Epis-copal counselor for MIT from1958 to 1966, gathered togethera small group of faculty fromMIT and elsewhere. Their pur-pose in meeting was to discuss atopic which Crocker says thepresent Seminar "will have toget around to sooner or later"-the cultural impact of techno-logy on society. The group hadnoticed that every human cul-ture has had a technology, butthat it is only in recent timesthat the principles of that tech-nology have become entwinedwith "the scientific method."

Consequently, only recently hasthe basis of technology becomeinaccessible to the average per-son.

Crocker cited two questionsthat needed (and still need) tobe answered about new techno-logical developments: do weneed them? and how do wecontrol them? He gave televisionas an example of the principlethat "once we've got something,it becomes something we have tohave.' Asking what the worldmight be like today if the cul-tural consequences of televisionhad been carefully studied andconsidered before it was broughtinto the world, he wonderdwhether, in the final analysis, we'needed" television before we

had it.In any case, the group dis-

banded after a while, and theconcept of the Technology andCulture Semninar entered a per-

Kahne, chief psychiatrist at theMedical Department, DeanAlfred Keil of the School ofEngineering, Professor Louis D.Smullin, former head of theDepartment of Electrical Engi-neering, and Professor of PhysicsPhilip Morrison. Although stu-dents are by no means excluded,and in fact many students havebecome quite involved in theactivities of the Seminar over thepast couple of years, the effort isadmittedly aimed at the faculty.The theory behind this approachis that, in order for the seminarto reach the greatest number ofpeople, it must reach themthrough the faculty involved init. If the most prominent intel-lectuals in the MIT communityengage in wide-ranging and deepconsideration of approaches toknowledge and the meaning androle of technology in today'ssociety, then the rest of theInstitute will join the debatetoo.

This is the raison d'etre of theTechnology and Culture Semi-nar, at any rate, and althoughReverend Crocker would like tohave a better idea of how manystudents are aware of the pro-gram, so far it seems to beworking.

(Continued from page 1)iod of dormancy. Scattered re-searchers may have continued toponder these questions at MITand around the Boston area, butthere was no organized forumfor their thoughts.

Then, in the spring of 1971,the next Episcopal chaplain ofMIT, Reverend Crocker, noticedthat "a lot of things were chang-ing at the Institute," and de-cided to try reviving the Techno-logy and Culture Seminar.Among the changes he noted:confrontation politics had runits course, and "people weregetting into a frame of mind totalk to each other again."Jerome Wiesner had just beenselected to be the next presidentof MIT. In addition to his well-known humanistic tendencies,Crocker considers him an "ex-tra-ordinarily open and con-cerned" man. It had becomeapparent that "the report of theCommission on an MIT Educa-tion wasn't really going to get aserious hearing." and Crockerwanted to keep alive the issuesthat had been raised. Finally,there were signs that the Human-ities department was searchingfor new directions, and itseemed that Karl Taylor

Compton's dream (that theexistence of a School of Human-ities would help humanize all ofMIT) needed a bit of help.

Crocker assembled a group ofinterested faculty, students, andadministration people, drew up a"rationale," and arranged a pro-gram of speakers. Each speakerwould deliver a public lecture at5:15 in the afternoon, followeedby a discussion by a smallergroup over a sandwich dinner inthe Mezzanine Lounge of theStudent Center. These sessionswould last well into the evening.Exploring the relationshipbetween science, engineering,and the humanities from a vari-ety of conventional and uncon-ventional viewpoints was thetheme for the 1971-72 academicyear. Among the lecturers weresuch eminent men as ProfessorsVictor Weisskopf of Physics andSalvador Luria from the Depart-ment of Biology at MIT, Profes-sor Everett Mendelsohn fromHarvard, and Dr. Derek de SollaPrice from Yale.

In addition to Weisskopf andLuria, other eminent MIT facul-ty on the committee includeProfessor Kenneth Hoffman,head of the Department ofMathematics, Dr. Merton J.

(Continued from page 1)The memorandum stated that

although names of eight studentshad been communicated to MIT,"only five could be identifiedfrom records as present or for-.mer MIT students." Of thesefive, the memorandum con-tinued, "one was a special stu-dent no longer at the Institute,one had left MIT in 1972, and athird had received, a degree andleft the' Institute."

The memorandum focused itsattention on the student whograduated from MIT and the tworemaining students (both under-graduates). All three were al-legedly involved in the purchaseor sale of term papers fro];Champion Research and, "theirinvolvement was small." One o:the two remaining students wascited as having been the sellerof three term papers to Cham-pion Research; while the otherhad allegedly bought two papersfrom the company in the springof 1972.

Rogers explained that his rea-sons for not leveling disciplinary..ction were different for each ofthe three students. The under-graduate who sold the term pap-ers, "did not merit further act-ion... because the extent towhich the student could be heldto have violated an understoodand enforcible rule of the univer-sity was not clear." The studentwho graduated from the Insti-tute could not be punished be-cause there was, "no appropriateway to pursue action." Finally,the student who purchased theterm papers was also exemptfrom reprimanding action be-cause the professors in whosecourses the papers were submit-ted Were away from MIT, onehaving left permanently and theother being on leave. Thus no

formal action could be taken "inview of the absence of the facul-ty member in question and thesubsequent difficulty of estab-lishing facts."

There were other factorswhich contributed to Rogers'inability to confirm that plagiar-ism had been commited. Accord-ing to Rogers, the conclusiveidentification of the implicatedstudents was made difficult bythe considerable use of falsenames; in some cases real namescould have .been used by differ-ent persons. Rogers also men-tioned the difficulty in provingthat, "the term papers in ques-tion had been submitted in pur-chased form to the indicatedsubject." An article in the March24th issue of the Chronicle ofHigher Education noted thatonly two schools - Brandeis andTufts - initiated disciplinaryaction against students on thelists provided by Boston Univer-sity. MIT and four other institu-tions, according to the article,either took no action, or as inthe case of Harvard, refused toaccept the lists.

Boston University., accordingto one official there, took appro-priate action against its studentoffenders. Students who hadused term papers that were pro-ven to have been bought fromthe companies either had theirgrade in the papers and/or in thecourses to which they were sub-mitted lowered one notch, orwere given a grade of F on thepapers and/or in the courses.The official added that many ofthe students whose names werefound on the company lists hadleft BU before the universitytried to contact them. The offi-cial did not know the exactnumber of BU students involvedin the scandals.

A few of the specific ideasinclude: implementing a grade of"T" (temporary), mainly for usein self-paced courses, where itwould not be unusual for thecourse work to run beyond theend of the term; making provi-sions which would facilitate theattachment of instructor's com-ments to a student's grade, tomake distinctions at the high

end of the grading scale, forexample, since this is no longerdone with an "A" grade; andextending the current seniorPass/Fail option for electives toinclude two courses in the junioryear.

As it looks now, the commit-tee is not likely to suggest thatthe drop date be moved anylater in the term. However, therehas not been any decision as towhether or not it will bechanged at all.

Sizer, speaking at the ScienceFair awards ceremony in KresgeAuditorium, went on to praisethededicationof the participants"to search for truth wherever itleads" and added that "many ofthese projects are so good thatsome of my graduate schoolstudents are getting ideas fortheir theses."

Sizer was followed by Sheila'Widnall, an associate professoraeronautical engineering. Widnalladvised students to "broadenyour outlook," citing the "di-verse options that a field inengineering can open up."

She noted that forecasts pre-dict an increasing shortage ofengineers and "while I don'tthink a career selection shouldbe made solely on the basis ofjob forecasts, I do think thisshould be an important con-sideration."

'"Since the focus of engi-neering is outside of the uni-versity," she said, "a bachelor'sdegree in engineering can oftenlead to high paying and re-warding jobs."

Commenting on the low per-centage (one percent) of womennationwide in engineering,Widnall told the women presentthat "this field offers you verywide opportunities if only youtake them."

LoitseresBy Barb Moore

There has been a large num-ber of complaints recently con-cerning non-students loitering inthe Student Center and theathletic facilities, according tothe Campus Patrol.

Most of the complaints con-ern youtlh, high school age or

younger, who live in the com-munity surrounding MIT.

James Olivieri, Chief of theCampus Patrol, stated that, "Theinflux of urchins is a problem,especially around the athleticfacilities." 'He also receiveescomplaints from the StudentCenter people "from time totime," which he believes arisefrom the use of the games areasby non-students.

The semi-public nature of theStudent Center causes problemsin enforcing loitering res-trictions, Olivieri explained. Ifthe non-student is on the first orsecond floors, he must be con-sidered to have been invited, dueto the public nature of the Coopand other facilities.

The upper floors, however,are considered private, and theCampus Patrol must "deal witheach particular situation on eachfloor." Olivieri stated that"there have been losses andthefts due to the transients inthere."'

Mike Kozinetz '76 chair-person of the Association ofStudent Activities, said, "Theonly problem I have is onSaturday, which probably has todo with the High School StudiesProgram (HSSP)." He has re-

The partici-pants noted a process that dis-courages girls from enteringscientific and technical careersstarts almost at birth, and con-tinues throughout a female's life,due to the attitudes of thosearound her to ''"women'swork."

HSSP, however, stated that"they aren't ours." RockyCardalisco, a member of theboard of HSSP, said that theyouth causing the problems arenot in the program, but areoutside youth from the Cam-bridge community. Occasionally,the complaints mistakenly blamethe HSSP students, according toCardalisco. There are approxi-mately 1000 high school stu-dents from the area in theprogram.

Olivieri agrees that mostproblems aren't caused by HSSP."We have had some prankishcalls on Saturday mornings fromthem, but nothing that some ofour own students wouldn't do,"he stated.

The most serious problemconcerns the athletic center,according to Olivieri. There hasbeen a number of thefts whichthe Campus Patrol attributes tocommunity youth. There is nowa Youth Program in the planningstages, which is "just starting toget off the ground."

The Youth Program wouldallow Cambridge youths use ofthe athletic facilities, such as thebaseball fields and the swimmingpool, under supervision. Thiswould be "a small pilot pro-gram," as described by Olivieri."If it is successful, we willexpand it."

Metropolitan District Policedivers Saturday recovered thebody of Judson Rich, 24, ajunior in the Department ofMechnical Engineering, from theCharles River several hours afterRich apparently jumped into theriver.

Witnesses said Rich, originallyfrom Chicago, ran out onto theHarvard Bridge at about 4:00pmand jumped into the river aboutI00 yards from the Cambridgeside of the bridge. He swam forseveral seconds before goingunder water, witnesses said.

When asked what he wasdoing, Rich was reported to havesaid, "I'm just going for a

swim."One witness, Timothy Holm

'75, was jogging across thebridge when he saw Rich go intothe water. Holm dove into thewater but failed in his attemptto save Rich.

According to Robert Byers,director of the MIT News Office,Rich had been under treatmentat the MIT Infirmary for sometime prior to Saturday'sdrowning, and witnesses saidRich was running from the Infir-mary immediately prior tofalling into the river.

Passers-by who saw Rich runonto the Bridge told The Techthat he "looked like he knewwhat he was doing" when hewent into the water. "He seemedto be a good swimmer," said onewitness.

Metropolitan District Policeboats and scuba divers werecalled into search for Richshortly after the accidentoccured, and Rich's body wasrecovered Saturday evening. Thebody was recovered in the im-mediate vicinity of the pointwhere Rich entered the water,Byers said.

Dean for Student AffairsCarola Eisenberg told The TechRich was a special student whohad been readmitted to the Insti-tute this spring, after havingtaken time off from MIT.Eisenberg would not commenton reports that Rich had beentreated by the MedicalDepartment.

The greatest problem that the UA hasis the lack of interest of the students. Inasking you to vote, we stated that "TheUA in actuality derives its potential fromthe undergraduates, If they have no inter-est, nothing gets done. If tOey have thedesire, life can be made a little better, alittle more enjoyable." The opportunityfor some really good things to happen onthis campus, for some changes. that willhave lasting impact, for life to be made alittle better, a little more enjoyable, isthere. All it takes is some interest on thepart of the students. We have our ideasand we will work on them.

What we want are more ideas, morepeople and more interest.

If you have some suggestions, pleaselet us know. If you want to work on oneof the projects that we have been discus-sing for the last month, give us a call. Iam asking that you take a minute out ofyour day and just think about what youwant the UA to do; what you would liketo see happen, and then to get in touchwith us (x3-2696, W20-401). The wholeprocess is quick, easy, painless and free;and it can make a great deal of differencein what goes on around here.

C ommenltary:In "Case of Insomnia-Rent RiseBy Storm Kauffman

Institute rents are rising again, and,though we don't know the exact extentof the disaster, we do know that the newsis bad. Very bad.

The base rents will go up approxi-mately $200, a choking 30% or so, andthose in the more modem buildings willincrease even more. The reason for theraise has been given as energy costs, but,while the Institute must be able to breakeven on housing, this realization will notease the pain.

What are the alternatives? The frater-nities are the traditional one, but theircapacity is static and most are not in themarket for poverty-stricken upperclass-men (or any sort of upperclassmen).

Just for comparison though, housebills will probably average $160 a month,with a large variation. That's probably$200 less than what rent plus commonswill cost dorm residents. Other- fraterntieslike Delta Tau Delta and Deltb Upsilonmay run another $100 less. L_,oks likethe houses are increasing their economicedge for the Class of 1978 rush.

The only other option left to a studentis to move out of the system and find anapartment. Most have not done so inrecent years, the 80% return rate beingone of the reasons for the housingcrunch.

But is an apartment economical? Toget an idea, I tried to get some represen-:aitive figures from two real estate agents(selected at random from the Bostonyellow pages).

Niles Company Inc. qiuoted the seem-ingly too low rates of $100-$130 for astudio and $150-$180 for a onebedroom-three room apartment. Theydidn't put any qualifiers on type of.building; location was specified only asCambridge.

Bradley R M Company Inc, were muchmore specific. In Cambridge in olderbuildings (60 to 70 years old), onebedroom places run $180 average, twobedroom $200 average (700 to 1600square feet). In newer buildings, less thanfive years old, one bedroom apartmentscost $275-$350 and two bedrooms $500.Brookline is about the same. Brighton ischeaper with one bedroom at $135-$200($155 average) and two bedroom at $190average in older buildings.

The reason for the wide variations inrents is location and building condition(such as the variation in dorm facilities).The age range is that of the Institutedorms. An important factor is whether abuilding is rent controlled - the primaryreason for high rents in modemnapartments is that local rent control doesnot affect those newer than three or fiveyears. Another consideration is parking,which was not included in any of thefigures.

If you are willing to share a onebedroom apartment in an old building,you might be able to do a little betterthan the base rents here. Four in a twobedroom apartment will definately runless.

There are many other points, however.Many landlords are wary of renting tostudents, most won't if the studentsigning the lease cannot prove he has ajob. Then there is the lease, acommitment to which the leasee wil beheld. If you aren't staying over thesummer, you have to sublet or take a loss.Utilities are an extra cost, as is furniture.If the place is not near the campus, thereis the problem of commuting. And,maybe you won't like living away fromcampus social life.

Overall, the decision is a personal one,but the housing service should take carenot to raise rents so high that it forcesstudents out of the system. We wouldn'twant that new dorm to go vacant, wouldwe?

least three large concerts during the nextyear. Planning has already begun for oneto be held the first or second week ofclasses in September. A weekend's worthof entertainment during the last weekendof IAP is also being worked on. Problemsin fraternities and dormitories concerningrelations with the Institute might besolved more easily if they were broughtto the attention of the UA. Money forideas that would benefit the entire stu-denlt body can usually be found. Theorganization of a representative studentgroup will greatly increase the amount offeedback and information that wouldflow between the students, their govern-ment, and the administration.

That only 710 people voted in anelection for a position that supposedlycovers all their interests is more than alittle disturbing. That ballot stuffing,lying, misleading, slander and misinforma-tion should exist is made more disgustingby the general shrug of apathy withwhich people greeted the news.

Many of these Bicentennial reminderswere devised very appropriately. Whatbetter way for Nixon to remind us of theimportance of separation of powers thanto conduct a secret air war in Cambodia?What better way for Nixon to remind usof the importance of a free press than totry to prevent the country's leading news-papers from publishing the Pentagon Pap-ers? What better way for Nixon to remindus of the importance of our right to besecure against unreasonable searches thanto break in to the office of DanielEllsberg's psychiatrist and the headquar-ters of the Democratic National Commit-tee? Nixon was not trying to usurp therights of the people with these actions; hemerely wanted us to remember howlucky we are to be ruled by a president,and not a king.

Crook? Paranoid psychotic? Tryant?Richard Nixon is none of these. He is justa noble but misunderstood idealist.

TAs%LettersTo the Editor:

KALEIDOSCOPE '74 has proved to bea success: a lot of people had a great timeduring the weekend. We hope, of course,that this fine tradition continues andgrows in the future. More and betterevents of this type are definitely neededon campus.

The important factor in this successhas been people. Therefore, we wouldlike to publicly thank all those whoparticipated: the many folks who spon-sored activities and devoted much timepreparing their events for the public, themedia people who helped us publicize theweekend, and those who came and were agreat audience to make it all worth while.We thank you all for your participationand hope that those in the coming yearscan follow your example of providing afun weekend on the MIT campus.

President, Association ofStudent Activities

By Greg SaltzmanThere are those who say that President

Nixon is a thoroughly rotten and dishon-est person who is trying to subvert ourconstitutional form of government. No-thing could be further from the truth.

To properly interpret the Watergateand other scandals in Washington, onemust consider Nixon's call for a "NewAmerican Revolution." For years, Nixonand other principled conservatives hadbeen saying that too much power wasbeing concentrated in Washington, andthat more power should be returned tothe state and local governments.

The Eastern intellectual establishmentscoffed at these ideas, however. They saidthat state and local governments were toocorrupt to be trusted with power. Theseeffete snobs stubbornly resisted the NewAmerican Revolution, fighting such pro-grams as revenue sharing.

In order to overcome the oppositionof the radiclibs, Nixon had to show thatthe state and local government were noworse than the federal government. DidNixon cheat on his income taxes, improvehis houses with money robbed from thefederal treasury, and accept bribes fromITT and the dairy lobby for considera-tions so base as personal gain? Of coursenot. He merely wanted to restore thepeople's faith in the integrity of state andlocal governments by showing how hon-est they were, relatively speaking.

There is even more that can be said indefense of Nixon. Few people have con-sidered the implications of Nixon's phrase"New American Revolution." It turnsout, though, that many of Nixon's mostsharply criticized actions were merelyintended as reminders of the actionswhich precipitated the original American/Revolution. In a way, these actions werejust another part of the Bicentennialcelebrations.

The UA -By Steve Wallman

I would like to clear up a few of themisconceptions that some people. mayhave concerning the position of UAP. Theposition does not pay any salary, nordoes it provide free room, or free board,or free tuition. It has paid for an Instituteextension, (but most recently, that hasbeen changed to a regular telephonebecause it is cheaper). The UAP does nothave direct control over any of the ASAactivities, nor does he now have directcontrol over any of the UA Committeeswhich possess the money and power ofstudent government. He cannot appro-priate very large amounts of money on hisown, he cannot very well represent thefeelings and thoughtsof a group as hetero-geneous as the MIT undergraduate studentbody, He cannot force the Beach Boys tocut short their West-coast tour, nor canhe make the Grateful Dead stop recordingdown south and perform live in Cam-bridge, Mass.

The UA can still accomplish a greatdeal, however. We will be organizing at

and appropriate to an MIT year-book.

By-Mike MecNmeeAn MIT yearbook is supposed

to have "everything that willmake you think of MIT, andremember what is was like foryou, . .. in the Florida old folkshome after the turn of the nextcentury," according to PaulSchindler's review of the 1973Technique. If Sch'indler wasright in this point (and I tend toagree with him), then the 1974edition of the "MIT yearbook"has fallen short of this goal.

This year's Technique hadsuffered, according to the rum-ors that circulate among acti-

"one picture is worth a thousandwords." Technique's editors,apparently, do think so - andthe result is a 300-page bookthat probably has less than 1000words (not counting ads, namesof people under pictures, andlists of names in the back). I canunderstand that to a point, sincethey are all photographers, but alot more explanation and text isin order to let the "reader"know why some of these photosare here.

And that's the other problem.Much of the book bears only amarginal relationship to any-thing that goes on at MIT, anddeals more with Boston and kidson the Common than withlegiti-mate Institute events that shouldhave been covered, but weren't.Technique has been accused inthe past of not paying enoughattention to the Institute con-munity, and I'm told thatthey're getting better. They stillhave a way to go.

Technique does come off wellon some points, the most impor-tant of which is the quality ofthe photographs. They are goodpictures, printed well, and mostof then say something to theviewer (not 1000-words-worth,but they do say something). Butexcept in a few well-done sec-tions ("Look at Me," a collec-tion of great people photos, ismy favorite), they are poorlyorganized, and, worst of all,many do not relate to MIT inthe least.

Will the 1974 Techniquebring tears to your eyes whenyou're in that home for retired,gnurds and tools in Ft. Lauder-dale? If you spent a lot of timeon Boston Commons and watch-ing oil slicks on the Charleswhile you were here, it might.But 'for most of us, the eventsand people that make the placewhat is is will probably be hardto find in MIT's yearbook - andit's a crying shame.

Perhaps in response to pastcriticism, this year's bookmoved a little (closer to sufficentpicture identification, withoutresorting to pompous text. Iden-tification of persons shown,rather than just events, might behelpful - but of course thepeople associated with eachgroup know who they are.

Still, I `would quibble withthe worthles line drawings, andmight suggeT a little less spacefor non-MIT\ pictures. Perhaps

one brief "review of the year"article would be appropriate.

Higlffights of ils year's bookinclude the monumental act ofself-inflation undertaken byCharlie Bruno, who bought twofull pages so he could writeabout himself and show pictures.And none of us who saw the1973 UJ-AP campaign can fail tolaugh for years to come with(at?) Larry Russel and DavidLoinweber, who posed in fullregalia. Even though the PBE'sposed only in tuxes, without lastyear's appropriately ostentatiousdisplay of money, the book isstill worth getting.

vity-oriented people, from manyof the same problems as pastyearbooks: lack of planning,weekend-long last-minute ses-sions to meet deadlines, and lackof staff. The result, however,seems to be significantly poorerthan that of recent years - thebook strikes me as, more thanever, a disorganized collection ofphotographs that reflect thestaff's likes and dislikes,/and not.much else.

I'll admit to a certain bias onthe subject of yearbooks; I hap-pen to believe that photos are allTight - in their place- butdon't subscribe to the view that

NOTES

Good ..By Paul. Schindler

I have been reviewing year-books either obviously oranonymously for three years,and looked forward to relaxingthis year. I coupled that desirewith the fervant hope that Tech-nique '74 would be a.good bookbecause it is my senior book.

I was not disappoqinted. Trech-nique '74 is the standout issue ofthe last four, and even on anabsolute scale is a terrific year-book.

Throwing restraint to thewind, I quote approvingly fromthe requisite silly essay writtenby the editor at the end: "It is,in a broad and serious sense, aphotographic record of the yearat MIT... the book is here foryour enjoyment." '

If what you want out of ayearbook is a) your picture, b)yourfriend's pictures, c) somepictures to remind you of yoursenior year and d) some picturesto remind you of the Institute,then Techniqhe '74 has what ittakes, and that's why I like it.

Underclassmen would also dowell to buy it, with the solecaveat that it 'is a pictoralhistory. To expect more (likeextensive text) is not rational;The Tech does a thorough job ofpreserving a text record of theyear, and the near-zero demandof persons other than the stafffor bound volumes indicates ademand that is being met forsuch a record.

There are, of course, non-MITpictures in the book. It is to beexpected that as large andtalented a group of photogra-phers as the Technique '74photographers would want toshow off their talents on a scopewider than the 125 acre campusof the Institute. Since only theMost gnurdly of the tools neverleave Mother MIT, pictures ofthe surrounding area are relevant c

By Mike McNameeA recent ruling by the US

Immigration and NaturalizationService (INS) on summer workpermits for foreign studentscould have "profound effects"on MIT's foreign-student popula-tion next summer, according toForeign Student Advisor EugeneR. Chamberlin.

The ruling, which takes theauthority for granting summerwork permits out of the handsof school officials andnecessitates review by the localIrmmigration office, will affectabout 80 MIT foreign studentswho will want to work off-campus in this country over thesummer. :

The INS ruling was absed onthe high unemployment rateamong youth, especially amongVietnam veterans and minorities,according to a release sent outby INS Commissioner LeonardChapman, Jr. "For several yearsthe Manpower Administrationhas advised us that unemploy-ment among American youth isof such magnitude that summeremployment of aliens isdepriving young Americans ofneeded employment oppor-tunities," Chapman said.

The procedure in the past onwork permits, Chamberlain ex-plained, has been for the ForeignStudent Office to process theapplications for permits, and toapprove them. Now, Chamber-lain says, the Office will have tosend the applications to theI m m ig ration Service forapproval.

"It will be up to the Immi-gration Inspector to decide whoshould receive a permit,"Chamberlain said. One thing thatis currently concerning theForeign Student Office, headded, is that "we don't haveany general guidelines on howthe local office will interpret therules, and what will and will notbe permitted," he said.

Won't affect on-campusINS summer work permits are

granted on the basis on "eco-nomic need due to unforseencircumstances which arose afterentry into the United States."This, Associate CommissionerEdward O'Connor told TheTech, applies 'only if price in-creases and other financialproblems make it impossible fora student to live on the resourceshe brought with him -to thiscountry."

"In the past, many foriegnstudents have gotten summerjobs not because of need, butjust to have something to do,"

O'Connor said. "We think thisruling will discourage them.Students that need work willprobably still be able to getpermits."

Neither O Connor norChamberlain could estimate thenumber of students that will bedenied permits under the newruling. "I really don't think thenumbers are important,"O'Connor said, "If it means thatone more Vietnam veteran orminority youth gets a job, .Ithink it will have worked."

Chamberlain estimated that17-18,000 foreign students

worked on permits in thiscountry last summer, but couldnot say how many would bedenied permits this year. "We'reurging students to get theirapplications in as soon aspossible," he said. 'It generallytakes the INS several weeks toprocess anything, so -we aretrying to get the applications inearly. " '

Foreign students are alsobeing urged to look foron-campus work, which doesn'tcome under the work permitprogram, Chamberlain said.

To you, photography is morethan a hobby. You may never wantto become a professional. Yet, yourphotography is as important ameans of self-expression to you asyour speech. You demand thesame excellence in your photo-graphic equipment as you do ofyour photographic skills.

The Canon F-1 is the camera thatcan fulfill any photographic task towhich you put it. It can stand up toyour ability in any situation.

Naturally, a great camera like theF-1 won't ensure great results.That's up to you. Yet--it's nice toknow that your camera can growwith you as a photographer.

Part of the reason for this is theF-1 system. Since it was designedin totality, it offers total perform-ance. There is nothing "added on"in the F-1 system. Everything worksas it was designed to, and inte-grates superbly with everythingelse. You'l I spend lesstimeworryingabout operating the camera than inshooting. And that's-what creativephotography is really all about.

Controls fall into place undereach finger. It's no accident. Pro-fessionals who depend on a camerafor their livelihood have a deepregard for the F-1 's handling. It'samazing how much a comfortablecamera can improve your work.

Sharing these lenses and manyof these accessories are the newElectronic Canon EF, with fullyautomatic exposure control, theFTb, now improved with all expo-sure information visible in thefinder, and the TLb, great for asecond camera body or for gettingstarted in Canon photography.Canon.

(Continued from page 3)The report identifies

secondary schools and em-ployers as institutions that cando the most to help eliminatethe stereotyped view ofIC"womnen 's work" that prevails,and offers several suggestions tothese institutions to facilitatethis change.

Employers could take severalsteps to aid women, the reportsays, including:

- Broadening of recruitmentof women for technical jobs,especially among women whowant to get out of traditional"Women's jobs" and those- re-entering the labor fo~rce afterwithdrawing from it for a time.

--Improving orientation pro-grams for women that are hired,and ensuring that they covertopics suchi as equal employmentlegislation, grievance procedures,anld benefit programns.

- Clarifying the definition ofequal work "so that 'substan-tially equal work' does in factentail substantially equalresponsibility.

-Offering financial aid pro-grams to aid training and/orretraining of women fortechnical careers - programsequivalent to those often offeredto men. .

Secondar school"Iln educating students for

citizenship, the education sys-tem needs to communicate to al

young men and women the cen-trality of science and technologyin contemporary life, as well asthe ramifications of this fact,"the report says. An "increasingattachment of women to thelabor force" is one of theseramifactions, and needs to bedealt with, 'according to theWorkshop participants.

Difficulty with mathematicsis one of the major problemsfaced by women who wish toenter technical fields. Educators"can and must conciously andactively encourage girls tochallenge the wide-spread andill-founded belief that they can-not or need not learn to workwith numbers."

The report urged secondaryschool officials to:

- Hold principals and staffsaccountable to school superin-tendents for providing equal op-portunity for girls.

- Undertake - collectivethought, throughout theeducational system, aboutcircular changes that will helpgirls "understand at an early agehow the study of science, mathe-matics, and technical courses canaffect their future life choices."Schools should experiment withmethods to encourage girls toconsider technical courses andcareers, the report says.

- Actively recruit girls forvocational programs.

- Avoid sex-stereotyping inhiring of school officials and

staff. "Nurses, bus drivers, officepersonnel, cafeteria workers -te entire group of men andwomen who comprise the schoolstaff - are role models for thestudents.

- Decrease the workload ofguidance counselors, and - in-crease the counselors' familiaritywith the world of work, in orderto make the counselors availablefor "early counsel and supportfor all girls who might becandidates for technical orscientific careers."

ImpatienceThe report was praised by

President Jermoe Wiesner as "ad o cu ment that shows howdisparate segments of societycan interact to bring about im-proved opportunities forwomen," but the Workshop par-ticipants realized that thechanges had not yet been made,and would not be simple.

Minutes of Workshop sessonson education stressed that "par-ticipants were acutely aware ofthe 'marvelous complexities' ofschools and the myriad stepsnecessary to change attitudesand behavior."

ButX none theless, "Wo-menwho were keenly aware -o)f theobstacles in their scientific andtechnical careers tended toc feelextremely ipatient at the paceat which educational and em-ployment systems could permitchange, even in optimal CiCUM-stances," the report says.

By AU KedouThe MIT Rugby Club traveled

to Springfield this weekend andposted another victory, shuttingout the Springfield RFC 13-0 onSaturday. The victory put thekuggers back on1 the winningtrack after last week's tough lossto Williams and extended theirspring season record to 3 winsand I loss.

MIT camne out strong, scoringin the first l 5 minutes whenright wing forward Smith, putthe ball over from close in for atry and then converted a penaltykick shortly afterward. The Techforwards played well in the looseand put heavy pressure on

Springfield in the early going,with the backs' play also muchimproved over the Williams'game. MIT mounted severalother serious threats but slackedoff and the score rearnined 7-0at the half.

The play was fairly even atthe beginning of the second halfwith both sides missing several-early opportunities; MIT had a

slight advantage in the physicalgame. Toward the end of thesecond half, wing halfbackEntwisle outran the Springfieldfullback for a kick from the MITfly-halfback and put, it down forthe try. Smith scored his 9thpoint of the day, kicking theconversion and making the finalscore 1 3-0).

The "B" team did not fare so>well; they lost 16-0 and are now1-3 on the season. It was a.hard-played game and was moreeven than the score would indi-cate. Particularly encouragingwas the improvement of thenewer players - somne in theirfirst game, and many in theirfirst season. The influx of under-graduates into what has beenprimarily a graduate team hasbeen welcomed' because of thestability it will provide.

MIT suffered its 'first defeaton the 19th of April at Williamsby a 10-3 score. The Ruggers fellbehind early on a fast try and?conversion by Williams. Then

The Ruggers face CharlesRiver RFC at home this Satur-day in what should be a toughgame.

MIT a heartbreaking loss by fivestrokes to Bowdoin in a medalplay match. Held at the WilliamsCollege course in Williamstown,Mass., the Engineers were no-where near the host team's 484totao, but were only outscoredby Bowdoin, 510-515.

Wolczanski led the way forMIT with an 81, while BobNilsson '76 shot an 86, andTurner, Deen, and Leo Bonmel'77 each took 87 strokes.

The golf team's record nowstands at 2-5 with wins overBabson and Lowell Tech andlosses at the hands of Tufts,WPI, Williams, and Bowdointwice. In the Tufts match onlyBob Kneeland '77 could tally forMIT with a halve. Jim Harrison'76, Turner, and Bonnell wonfor MIT in the 4-3 loss to WPI.

The team's main problem thisseason after their successful 7-1fall season may lie in a con-siderably tougher schedule. Thesquad has faced perenially strongteams from Tufts and Williamsand has yet to face Harvard andTrinity. Another problem hasbeen the inconsistent rounds bymany of the top eight playerswho have still not regroovedafter the winter lay-off.

Hopefully, play will have im-proved enough to make a goodshowing in the New EnglandECAC tournament in 'NewHampshire at the end -of theweek.. The team is practicing atits home course, Brae ,BumCountry Club, to determine thefive players to represent theteam.

By B.H. JonesThe MIT golf team snapped a

four match losing streak bydefeating Lowell Tech in a sud-den death playoff.

Traveling to Mt. Pleasant GolfCourse in North Adams, Mass.The MIT golfers last Fridayfaced both Lowell Tech andBowdoin College. After regula-tion 18 holes MIT found itselftied with Lowvell Tech at -31/.-31/zb u t d e feat e d byBowdoin, 5 1/z1 1/2,

MIT golfers Pete Wolczanski'76, captain Gordon Deen '74,and Greg Turner '74 each wontheir matches while DaveMacartney '74 managed a tie toforce the playoff. It took onlytwo holes for Macartney to de-feat his opponent and gain the'victory for the Engineers.

The only competition forBowdoin came from Turner,who picked up a win, andWolczanski, who tied his match.MIT's low scores were turned inby Deen and Wolczanski whoshot 79 and 81 respectively.

On Monday, the team playedin the Greater Boston CollegiateAthletic Association tournamentat Concord Country Club, agenuinely unfair course With pre-cipitous fairways and greenswhose texture varies from con-crete to quicksand. The teamcame out of the 36 hole, daylong tourney in fifth place,.ahead of only Boston University.Gordon Deen was again low manfor the team with 167.

The preceding weekend dealt

With a competitive edge pro-vided by its experienced pitcrew, the MIT Rtoad RacingTeam scored its first victory ofthe new season. After a race-long battle, team driver JoelBradley G powered one of theteam's Burger King Pintos acrossthe finish line first in a NorthAtlantic Road Racing Cham-pioDnship -race held at LimeRock, Connecticut.

With outstanding weather allweekend, the MIT team was ableto keep the two team cars com-petitive through two days ofhard racing

Although Friday's practicewas uneventful for the MITteam, actor Paul Newman pro-vided a noteworthy incidentwith a spectacular crash in whichhe destroyed a $20,000 race-prepared English Ford Escort.Practicing for next week'sTrans-Am race Newman flewoff the end of the main straight-away -and ran down a large num-ber of small trees. Although thechassis and body were complete-ly destroyed, the left side doorbeing in the middle of the car,Newman emerged unhurt from

the right-hand drive Escort.Saturday saw both MIT/Bur-

ger King Pintos put in impressivequ alifig performances. JoelBradley posted the second fast-est time in the "showroom stocksedan" class, while DaveZiegelheim '75 was third fastest.The pit crew (Steve Cairns G. EdGardner '75, Gunnar Gangasaas'74, Lynn Davidson '75, andBob Humphrey '77) kept bothcars running in top form, despiteBradley's car being hit by anovice driver in practice, andZiegelheim's racer losing Its muf-fler.

At the start of the race,Bradley dropped four secondsbehind Paul Hacker's Dodge Coltas both cars avoided the spinningPorsche of Larry Snover. Gettinga poor start, Ziegelheim droppedtwo positions to fifth place.

Bradley quickly caught theColt, and on the sixth lap draft-ed by him on the main straightand outbraked him into the firstturn to take the lead. On theseventh lap Ziegelheim was"shunted" and spun while out-braking another Pinto into turnone. Hacker was able to powerhis Colt past Bradley on themain straight in the eighth lap.

For the next three laps.Bradley kept his Pinto right onthe tail of Hacker's Colt. On lapI1, the two cars came uponZiegelheim, who had lost nearlya full lap when he spun.Ziegelheim blocked Hacker onthe diving turn leading to themain straight, allowing Bradleyto regain the lead.

On lap 13 Hacker again madea m ov e, pulling alongsideBradley on the main straight.Fender to fender, door to door,the two cars swept through thebig bend and the S-curves, nei-ther car giving up an inch. Onthe z ig-zag straight Hacker

pulled ahead, but Bradley stayedwith him, drafting him out ofthe diving turn, and regainingthe lead on the main straight.

The final two laps kept thespectators on their feet, asBradley held Hacker off, out-braking him into the big bendand holding his line through theS-curves. the 15-lap fender fend-ing chase climaxed on the finalturn when Hacker made a last

ditch attempt for-the lead, try-ing to pass on the outside of thediving turn. Bradley held hisline, causing the Colt driver toslide off the track, for the MITteam's first victory of the 1974season.

By Lawrence D. DavidThe Beaver baseball machline

rebounded 'from a 6-0 loss toBrandeis last Tuesday to sweepfour games in three days in themost overpowering exhibition ofhitting in MIT baseball history.

Thursday's game against pre-viously undefeated Lowell Techwas a nail-biting 1-0 victory forpitcher Mike Royal '76. A clutchstab of a line drive by MikeDziekan '76 in the bottom ofthe sixth with the bases loadedsaved two runs and the game.

Two infield hits by VinceMaconi '76 and Tom Leise '74,followed by a Roy Henriksson'76 liner past the Lowell thirdbaseman, scored Maconi withthe game winner.

Four home runs by BostonCollege could not over come an18-hit Beaver attack, as MITsteamrolled Eddie Pellagrini'scharges at Chestnut Hill on Fri-day, 19-10, believed to be themost runs ever scored againstBC. Every man in the Beaverlineup scored, and eight Beaverbatters had at least one.RBI.

Dave Yauch'75, the winningpitcher, raised Iris lifetime colle-giate pitching record to 12-7,tying the MIT mark for mostindividual career victories.

The next day, Coast Guardmade the mistake of getting inthe way of the red-hot Beaverbats, as MIT swept a double-header, 12-6 and 14-11. In thefirst game, 12 runs and 15 hitswere enough to support DonProper '76 in pitching his secondvictory against no losses.

Mike Royal pitched for thesecond time in two days, thisouting in relief, and picked uphis second victory. Coast Guardouthit MIT, 13-12, but commit-

Ivy table e

ted four errors and lost theservices of their ace hurler, WaltRomanosky, in the second in-ning with a stiff shoulder.

The Beavers' 45 runs and 45hits this past weekend sent theteam batting average skyrocket-ing to .298, and the runs-per-game average to 8.84, almostdouble that of their opponents.

MIT's next game will be thisafternoon against Northeasternat Briggs Field. Game time -is4:00.

MIT's table tennis team hascaptured the Ivy League-MITchampionship completing its sea-son with a near perfect record.With the title comes the IvyTable Tennis Team Cup whichwill soon be on display in theduPont Athletic Center.

The squad's 'A' team wentthrough the year without a loss,including a big win over arch-rival Columbia, while the 'B'team lost only to Harvard andCornell Competing for MITthroughout the course of theseason were Chuck Chan. G,Dave Chan G, Bob Keener '75,Bill Ladd '74, Lun Lam '74, Bob,Lee '74, Joseph Lee G, Bok SingTam G, Denny Wang '74, andKen Wang G.

On April 20, four members ofthe team, Joseph Lee, DaveChan, Ladd, and Chuck Chan,participated in the All-Ivy Inter-collegiate Tournament held atPrinceton University.

The doubles teaml of ChuckChan and Joseph Lee won thecompetition by defeating Dave

Chan and Ladd in an all-MITfinal. Chan and Ladd had pre-viously__beaten the top-seededColumbia doubles team, whileChan and Lee swept easilythrough their half of the draw.

In the singles event; Ladd wasnarrowly edged out for the titleby Sam Lee of Columbia in around-robin semifinal match.

Obviously, the MIT squad hashad a very successful season.Next year,'with every team gun-ning for them every match,should be a rough one. Hopeful-ly, MIT will be able to prevailand defend its championship.
