ers of the Freshman Council gath-ed at Endicott House for the thirdnnual Freshman Leadership Confer-

~ce. By far the most successful ofe series, this conference was plan-ed and run by Ed Roberts '57, chair-an of the Freshman CoordinatingOmmittee.

"Role and Responsibilities of Stu-ent Government" was the morning

pic. To keynote the discussion Jackaloma '56 emphasized the point thate government of MIT undergradu-tes is conducted not by a dictator-

ip but by students who strive tochieve mature undergraduate think-

g, The group then broke up intour panels to consider aspects ofudent government affecting fresh-en.

All panels felt that the Freshmanouncil as presently organized is theost feasible organ for uniting theeshman class, but many sectionaders decried the lack of interest

mong the rank and file of theirlass. In the discussion of Field Daywas suggested that each year after

the event the classes participatingihould have an opportunity to make

changes in the rules.After dinner, Prof. Norman Dahl,

chairman of the Freshman AdvisoryCouncil, and Prof. William Greene,chairman of the Committee on theFirst Two Years, spoke about"MIT'sChanging Educational Policy." Prof.Dahl emphasized the role of the fac-ulty adviser and the importance ofcareful course selection. Prof. Greenecontrasted A m e r i c a n educationalprocesses with the European systemand speculated on the future coursestructure at the Institute.

The afternoon panels are believedto represent the first occasion onwhich freshmen have held formal dis-cussions on the Institute's educationalpolicy. Several bases for concrete ac-tion emerged. Particularly warm re-ception was given to a proposal for ayear-long freshman orientation coursein which students would learn of ac-tivities and 'opportunities in each ofthe academic departments. One sug-gestion which has already been actedupon by Inscomm was that an in-vestigation be held to consider thepossibility of improving the qualityof freshman instruction by graduatestudents.

Senior Ring Committee '56 was once again the main subject of Inscomm debate. Meeting last Wednesday evening,the legislative group finally came to a vote on a twice-tabled motion concerning the Senior Ring Committee of '56,originally presented by Bob Alter '56 two weeks ago. The motion called for payment by the members of the Ring Com-mittee a sum of $31.50, or the retail price of the ring, whichever was the smaller figure. The discussion that followedthe motion's removal from the table was lively and marked by a variety of views.

In support of his motion, Alter cited a previous Inscomm recommendation directed to the Ring Committee re-questing their payment in full for the rings, which request, Alter stated, was ignored. He expressed the opinion thatInscomm recommendations should carry sufficient weight to command, implicitly, compliance, and that, therefore, theRing Committee's disregard for this Inscomm request set a dangerous precedent.

Several representatives differed with Alter's views. The phrase "ex post facto" was used quite often. For example,Jim Rowan '57 said that if Inscomm felt that Ring Committee members should pay for their rings, Inscomm shouldhave made that policy known to the Ring Committee prior to the signing ofBinner '56 made it clear that deposits were made on the rings before Inscomm's

any contract. In this regard, Dorettarecommendation, although full payment

was made somewhat later.The moral as well as the legal side

was discussed at length. Ed Roberts'57 proposed a substitute motion whichresolved that since the Judicial Com-mittee's request to the Ring Commit-tee to pay for the rings had been ig-nored, and since Inscomm in makingmerely a request, protected membersof the Ring Committee while neglect-ing its higher obligation to the classof '56, Inscomm should:

(1) Apologize for ignoring its tacitobligation to the class of '56.

(2) Order members of the RingCommittee to pay for their rings.

Prior to this motion, Dick Peskin'56 had asked that Inscorem admit itsmistake in the poor handling of thesituation, and then go on from thereto rectify the error.

This viewv met with opposition.Oliver Johns '56 suggested that theInscomm members should not "stum-ble all over" themselves apologizing

Burton House Comm also passed aresolution urging the re-instatementof the "choice system" (instead ofthe "compulsory system") for Com-mons lunches and dinners served atthe Graduate House. Members ex-pressed the opinion that a great dealof "push" on the part of the House"choice system" would be adopted.

Last Wednesday, after a prolongeddiscussion, the East Campus Housecommittee voted to make gamblingfor money illegal in the East Cam-pus lounges. The roll call vote found17 in favor, 4 against and one ab-stention.

Holding that expulsion from anyone dormitory was tantamount to ex-pulsion from all the dormitories andthat although the right to room prior-ity was a "privilege" the right to livein the dormitories was a "right", theydecided that Baker lacked the author-ity to impose such expulsion.

MIT's Olympic Fund Drive has ter-minated. The Fund Committee re-ported that student response wasvery poor. The drive has yielded only$400 to send our athletes to Australiain 1956. Because of the inferior re-sults, the committee is as yet unde-cided as to whether to recontinue thedrive in the spring or merely sendin the present amount and not at-tempt to collect more.

to it all. Two possible solutions weredefeated and another pertinent mo-tion was ratabled. (It has been on thetable since May 16, 1955.) This isnot the way to justice! Are we toassume from Inscomm's actions thatthey admit their inability to copewith the situation? I hope that in thefuture they will realize that by beingelected by the student body, they aresupposed to represent and uphold thisbody's rigrhits and wishes. If thisnmea ns they will have to publicly ad-miit a previous incompetence and per-h'aps take disciplinary action agrainstotto of their subcommittees, then its;hould be done. inscorem, through itssubcommittees, has to some extent"broken faith" with one-fourth of theundergzraduate body.

Having all good intentions of wrv'iting a colunin for this paper under thegeneral heading: of "entertainment around Boston, niusical arid otherwise" I

decided to start with a review and comment on the jazz concert scheduled for

last Wednesday in Kresge Auditorium. Needless to say I got off to my usual

flying start: no concert! It seems that Don Elliot and Serge Chaloff had both

agreed to have their groups play for the MIT Jazz Society's first meeting free

for nothing, provided! that there was to be no admission charge. Wednesday

morning the union said that they couldn't play unless the Jazz Society paid the

musicians, which, unfortunately, they couldn't.

Of the two scheduled groups, Don's is the better known. He is one of the

most popular modern jazz niusicians and deservedly so. He plays ribes, trumpet,mellophone, bongos and sinlgs equally well and exhibits a strong rhythmic drive,

complete technical facility anad excellent taste independent of the instrument

he chooses to expless himself at the momlent. I mil-ht add that he is also one

of the most pleasant of people. Ser-e, though not quite so versatile is even more

exciting-. He plays the baritone sax with a de,-ree of control seldorn heard on

that difficult instrument though his extremely wide vibrato tends to get the

better of his taste ill his ballads. It is no mean feat just to holt a thirty pound

baritone for an hour but Ser-ge appears to sing through the instrument as

thoufh it were merely an extension of his musical personality and not an

instrument it all. As a matter, of fact, when he does sing, (wvhich is seldom,thank -roodness) his voice has ran unmnistakable resemblance to the ahinost uglythough r-ather expressive soulid of the baritone.

He is one of the dominant forces in Boston jazz and the "grandda'ld.d" ofthe other important baritone saxists of the present jazz scene including GerryMulligan, who derives much of his style from Serge, and the late Bob Gordon.He wvas a member of Woocty Herman's "Four Br-others" baind along- with StanGetz and Zoot Simis and lie made nany famous recordings with them. Hispresent g-roup is a sextet featuring ex-Kenton alto player Boots Mussili, pianistBob Freedniwn and a wonderfully swvinging- bass player Everett Evans.

I strong'ly suggest that if you have the opportunity to hear Serge ill thenear future that you (lo so and that you make it a point to stop in tit the FiveO'Clock Club on Huntington Avenue and heal' Don %while he is still in town.It is really too bad that an organization such as the MIT Jazz Society, whichis trying to create an interest in good jazz here at Tech and expand the interestsof the Tech man in general, hias neither the moral nor financial support wihichit dreserves to enable it to present such a concert as was attempted last Wednes-(lay.

The Institute Judicial System is awell-ordered structure designed totreat, on a student level, student dis-ciplinary problems. The co-o'dinatin-rstudent judicial body is the InstituteCommittee Judicial Committee, whichis a sub-committee of Inscoimm. Sub-ordinate to the Judcoram are the I)or-eitcry Judicial Committee, the Inter-fraternity Co u n c i I InvestigationsCommittee, and the Commuter Judi-cial Iep resentatives.

The chairman of Judicial Commit-tee is elected by the Institute Com-nmittee at their outgoing niecting in

IPC Starts TalksThis Sunday, the International Pro-

gram Committee inaugurates a seriesof informal international discussionsat 3:00 p.m. in the Student-FacultyLounge in Walker Memorial. Every-one is invited to attend this weeklydiscussion, which features five to tenforeign students from a variety ofcountries.

These informal affairs are whatmay best be described as an "Inter-national Coffee Hour." No preparedprogtram or pre-determined topicswill be presented, but rather thosepresent will gather into small panelsor groups and discuss any topicswhatever with the foreign students.It is felt that this type of uniqueprogram will do miuch to provide ameetin- g'round for an interestin-and informative exchange of ideaswith our intevnational neighbors.

What young people are doing at General Electric

Young engineerdecides what colors

are best forG-E reflector lamps

Which color of light makes people look nat-ural? Should a blue light be used more oftenthan a red? What kind of effect does a violetlight have on merchandise?

In recent years, color lighting has becomeso important in stores, restaurants, theaters,and displays that General Electric developeda line of new easy-to-use color-reflector lampsfor this market.

The man responsible for deciding whichcolors are most effective for users of theselamps is 29-year-old Charles N. Clark, Ap-plication Engineering Color Specialist forGeneral Electric's large lamp department.

Clark's Work Is Interesting, Important

In a recent series of tests, Clark made acritical appraisal of literally hundreds ofcolor-filter materials to find the ones thatproduced maximum results but were stillsuitable to high-production techniques, prac-tical stocking and simplified selling. Thisexperimental work also had to take intoaccount all the information on human per-ception of color.

25,000 College Graduates at General Electric

When Clark came to General Electric in1949, he already knew the work he wantedto do. Like each of the 25,000 college-grad.uate employees. he was given his chance togrow and realize his full potential. For Gen-eral Electric has long believed this: Whenfresh. youn-g minds are given freedom tomake progress, everybody benefits-the in-dividual, the company, and the country.

than a "privileg'e". l)ormCemmn Jud-Comm implied that suspension ofprivileges was within the pover ofthe Baker Coemn, but that suspelnsionof rights was the preserve of theJudCorlni.

There is some contention that theI)ormComm JudComm mTneeting maybe invalidated, since Herb Amster'56, head of the Dormitory Counciland a Baker resident, claims he wasnot advised of the meeting. TheBaker House Committee plans to ap-peal the JudComm decision to theI)olrmitory Council.

The second major area covered bythe Raker House Committee was thecontroversial "Baker House Tax". Atthe beginning of the term a referen-dum held in Baker showed that a ma-jority of the students voting desiredthe imposition of a dollar tas onevery residlent, to be used to expandthe Baker House budget. \When col-lection was attempted, however, there-,as considerable and very noisy re-sistance. As a result, the BakerCommwiped out all tax legislation fl romthe record and plans to hold another,more widely publicized, r-eferendtumon Tuesday, November 29. The re-sult of this referendum will be final,and the House Committee will at-tempt to enforce the tax, if it is ap-plroved.

SAE and Phi Delta Theta are both undefeated for the yea', havinltwon theilr respectiv-e leagrues undefeated and knocked off their opposition inlast week's playoff games. SAE rolled over a highly rated Phi Gam team 18 to 0,and the Phi Delts dropped the Betas 14 to 7 in one of the closest games of theyear. This week it should be the Pil Delts over SAE in another close one butWalt Ackerlund '58 should make the difference. The Betas should keep theirtitle hopes alive by knocking off the Phi Gams easily. With tailback TomHoffman '56 and four other regulars definitely out with injulies, the Phi Gamspresent a rather weak obstacle.

Led by team captain Ray Smlnith'ssensational runlling, the tol, perfnr-mance of his coliege career in hislast intercollegiate race, a vastly im-proved MIT varsity harrier squadplaced sixteenth in the largest fieldever to compete in the ICAAAAchampionship meet held last Monday-over the tough Van Cortlandt Palrkcourse in New York City.

Finishing; strong, Smith passed ascore of competitolrs inll the last txw,miles to place 26th. an implroxementof 21 positions over his effort of lastyealr. Following theil; captailn's (-ample, the remainder of the B;eav(rsquad also regained .ground in thelast stages of the fi-o-mile distancein the 47th renewal of the annualevent. Hampered by the absence ofstars Jack Buell and the injured EdCarter '58, the Beaver smuad did wellin defeating Rut-'etrs, Pennsylvania,Yale, Union, Rhode Island. Lehigh,Columbia, and Alfred. The team titlewent to Pittsburgh with MichigalnState, tlroubled by the lack of astrong fifth man, a close second. Theindividual title went to Henry Ken-nedy, a Michigan State sophomore,whose time of 24:30.3 missed themeet record by two-tenths of a sec-ond.

Smith's performance is all the moreamazing in view of the number oftop New England runners from theNEICAAA meet the week previouswho were beaten by the Beaver har-rielrs this time. Among these was Bob"Squeaky" Horn, Massachusetts, Avhoplaced second in the New Englandmeet. The remaining places gralrneredby the Tech team were Dave Vaugrhan'5)7. 79th, Peter Carberry '57, Il)th.W'alt Kuckes '56, 120th, Bob Solon-berger '57, 125th, and Glenn Ben-nett '58, 168th. MIT was representecdlin the three-mile F.!eshman run byMark Porter, 91st, and Chuck Staples.103rd.

The ICAAAA meet marked theconclusion ,f the 1955 cross count,'yseason. Though not maeasulrinz. u toearly season hopes, it w-as, none theloss, a successful y-ear. A revision ofthe results of the Boston Universitydual mrneet due to the discov-ery of anineligible runner, has given the MITteam another victory, raising theirregular season record to 2 and 3along with a sixth in the New Eng-land's and this week's sixtoenth inthe ICAAAA's. Coach Oscar Hetdlundhas announced that ther-e is a pos-sibility the Tech harriers will com-pete as a team in the annual New-England AAU champiolship meet atFranklin IPark on this Sunlay, No-vemniber 20.

The Tech FRIDAY, NOVEMBIER !g, 195I _ ' i lug__ 7 'r~r~esl

by F. Heimut Weymar '58

In attacking the job of utilizing the million dollar bequest toward athletics at the Institute from the late DavidduPont '56, architecture student Dimitri Vergun '56, has issued the accompanying preliminary plans. Vergun, holder ofthe present MIT basketball scoring record, has chosen the job of laying out plans for extensive additions to the pres-ent athletic facilities as the subject of his senior thesis.

The two proposed plans differ mainly in that one makes use of the armory, modernized and adapted for use as agymnasium, while the other precludes the razing of the nearly half century old building and replacing it with newfacilities. If the armory were to be incorporated into the new'plant, the proposed plans would call for a new structure

recently proposed by Building andPower. Briefly, these plans call for abuilding built around the hockey rink,with squash courts, and separaterooms for various other sports on thefirst floor, and a gymnasium and officeson the second floor.

As we see it, the best plar, proposdthus far is Vergun's layout involvngthe new athletic building. t, includesnecessary new facilities for all need.ing intercollegiate sports notablecrew and squash, while also ?roviding

(Continued on page Ijust southeast of the armory to housean auxiliary swimming pool, separatewrestling, fencing, and weightliftinglooms, a crew tank, a rifle range, andsquash and handball courts. Included

ture would be the newly located Ath-letic Association offices. The extensivefloor of the armory itself would pro-vide space for the intercollegiate bas-ketball teams along with the inter-mural hoop, badminton,. and volleyball squads. Were the armory to betorn down, the alternate plans wouldcall for an entirely new building run-ning parallel to Massachusetts Avenuewith the swimm'ng pool and an aux-iliary gymnasium between it andRockwell Cage. The squash courtswould be situated beside the pool, justeast of the cage. Included in the pro-posed new main structure would befacilities for all indoor intercollegiatesports, while the auxiliary gym wouldhouse the various intermural sports.Were either of these two plans usedwith slight modifications, the tempo-rary floor in the eastern end of thecage would, in all probability, bepermanently taken up. Both plans alsoinclude a permanent roof over therink.

Several other plans have been offer-ed since the bequest was announced,notable among which was the layout

Marty Gerson '57 asked for a clear-cut decision, sans apology, either tomake the Ring Committee pay, or not.

Roberts' substitute motion was thenput to a vote and defeated by elevenvotes against to eight votes for. A1-ter's motion met the same fate by avote of thirteen to six.

Jack Saloma '56, Inscomm Presi-dent, reported that:

(1) Although request for extensionof this year's Christmas vacation hadbeen turned down, the Institute re-quested student views on the '56-'57calendar which will be drawn up inDecember. A committee has beenformed to handle this matter.

(2) A Parents' Weekend (May 6)Committee, composed of faculty mem-bers and students, promises excellentresults.

(3) An increase in funds has beenmade available to several activities,e.g., music. More funds have been re-quested for the intramural program.

M. Philip Bryden '56 informed thecommittee that the NSA will hold aconference having for its topic thecurrent state of American education.The site picked for the conference isSaratoga Springs, New York, and thetime, December. Bryden suggestedthat MIT be represented by competentsophomores and freshmen, so that thepotential leaders of student govern-ment might be afforded some valuableexperience.

Four new motions were voted on bythe Committee. Those passed included:

(1) the Executive Committee mo-tion: That the SCEP undertake astudy of methods for imposving:

(a) the quality of instruction bygraduate students.

much needed space for casual individ-ual and intermural recreation. Theidea of incorporating the armory intothe plans seems poor in that thestructure, although probably spaciousenough, would be an eye-sore twentyyealrs from now, and generally wouldnot fit into the proposed plans for thecampus. Building and Power's plan,economical as it may be, would notprovide near enough space for theInstitute's present athletic needs, andthus would fall short of its purpose.

No matter what plan is finally adopt-ed, it is truly encouraging that meas-ures are being made in solving theproblem.
