Ramey NamedProfessor Lq EE,For Second Term

Dr. Robert A. Ramey, Jr., managerof the Magnetic Development Sectionof the Materials Engineering Depart-ment of the Westinghouse ElectricCorporation (Pittsburgh), has beenappointed Visiting Webster Professorof Electrical Engineering for the se-cond semester of the current academicyear.

The Webster Chair of Electrical En-gineering at M.I.T. was established in1952 under a grant of $400,000 fromthe Edwin Sibley Webster Foundationin memory of the late Mr. Webster,one of the Institute's most distinguish-ed alumni.

During his stay at M.I.T. Dr. Rameywill participate in the development ofteaching and research in the newarea of solid state non-linear devicesand their applications to power m6d-ulators. Dr. Ramey's appointment be-comes effective February 1.

In the opinion of leading scientiststhe industrial economy of the futurewill be greatly influenced because ofnew engineering developments thatwill exploit the physics of the solidstate. These engineering advances willopen up many new industrial and bus-iness opportunities in fields of electricpower, automation and communica-tions.

Prior to his appointment with West-inghouse in 1952, Dr. Ramey served ashead of the Electromagnetic Compon-ents Section of the Naval ResearchLaboratory.

While on this assignment he createda new theory of magnetic amplifiersand invented some eight new circuits.He also published a number of basicpapers, one of which received the bestpaper award of the Basic Science Com-mittee of the American Institute ofElectrical Engineers in 1951.

In addition, Dr. Ramey is the in-ventor of the Navy's new underwaterlog which measures submarine speedto a high degree of accuracy.

changed suddenly. The turning pointwas a mention of the freshman sectionmixers. One professor declared them"Death in the Afternoon." Among thereasons given for their strained at-mosphere were the facts that studentsare afraid to become friendly withtheir professors for fear of beingcalled "apple polishers." Students alsomay feel uncomfortable if they talk"shop talk" with their instructors oub-side of class. On the other hand thefaculty representatives pointed outthat a professor is not likely to raisea student's grades because of a per-sonal relationship.

Abruptly a new topic was introducedand a heated discussion ensued overwhether or not students should bemembers of faculty committees as ad-visors rather than as voting member.This year for the first time, Inscommhas invited members of the faculty totheir meetings in an advisory capacity.The group seemed to feel that a sim-ilar move on the faculty's part wouldbe quite feasible, within limits.

The members of Inscomm were verymuch in accord with this idea, and infact the possible restrictions thatsome bodies should be restricted toonly faculty were brought out by thestudents themselves.

The object of such informal discus-sion meetings as Wednesday's is toair new ideas. Those attending feltthat this meeting was a great success.

A third related topic also mentionedat the meeting was the question ofwho should make the first move intrying to further better student-fac-ulty relations. In particular, one pro-fessor mentioned that many times heplans dinners at his home, to enablehim to meet the students in his de-partment. However, these meetingswere failures more often than suc-cesses. Another member of the facultymentioned that though he had invited

First candidate for hero of the yearis Ralph Wanger, a 20 year old senior.Ralph, 5'5", 135 lbs. and a member ofthe MIT weightlifting team was theoutstanding member of a group ofTech men that subdued and broughtto justice a burglar responsible formany recent dormitory thefts.

Booked for larceny was Joseph M.McHugh, 36, of Allston. The policehave announced that McHugh has ad-mitted 100 thefts, most of them beingwallets.

The episode occurred between 3:30and 4:00 a.m. Sunday morning shortlyafter Wanger had returned from athrilling card game in which he man-aged to win 20 cents. He had just goneto bed and was dreaming of uses forthe 20 cents when a strange noisecame from the other room. It was firstthought to be a hungry friend raidingthe ice box. This is not an unusualoccurrence on the 2nd floor of Holmandormitory. The noise however seemedto be slightly foreign and Wangertried communication. According toWanger it seemed as though a smallbrown animal scuttled across the roomand out the door. Giving chase, Ralphcaught up with the individual. Dressedin his new Christmas pajamas, andsummoning up all the righteous in-dignation that is available at 4:00a.m., Ralph inquired as to the mean-ing of the intrusion. The intruder re-marked that it was all a joke. How-ever noticing that the individual wastoo well dressed to be a student, and

by Robert G. Bridgham '57Several resolutions dealing with

such important issues as UniversalMilitary Training, loyalty oaths inROTC and subsidized studies of stu-dent government, were passed by theNational Student Assn. executivecommittee at its meeting last week inChicago. According to John Seiler '55,President of Dormitory Council andchairman of the New England Regionof the USNSA, the purpose of thefive-day session was the developmentof perspective and opinion on currenttopics of importance in the scholasticworld-in the hope that a unified stu-dent opin'on will influence any futureaction on these decisive issues.

The committee, in its view of Uni-versal Military Training, took the po-sition that while UMT may be neces-sary in the plresent emergency, a pro-longed use of this program is not inthe American tradition and may tendto subvert "the American way of life."

ability of the oath was conceded, al-i beit somewhat grudgingly, Seiler said.In connection with this problem thecommittee suggested three alterna-tives-that ROTC be made universallynon-compulsory, that the loyalty oathin basic ROTC be abolished, or thatthe oath be revised.

|The recent fulrolr over the proprietyof debating Red China's admission tothe United Nations led the committeeto take the stand that, provided thetopic is acceptable to those takingpart, it should be freely discussed.

Ten schools have received an NSA-administered grant from the FordFoundation for a study of their stu-dent governments. Since none of theseare technological colleges, however,Seiler believes that the presentationof a strong case could possibly resultin MIT's receiving a similar grant.The study would be attacked from theviewpoint of the lasting educationalvalues to be extracted from participa-tion in student government.

son upon reaching the age of liabilityunder Universal Military Trainingshould be given a choice between UMTand active duty. The committee re-quested that serious thought be givento the predicament of students who,at a point midway in their professionaltraining, come under UMT. Finally,the committee asked that a compre-hensive study be made regarding theeffect of the proposed training pro-gram on the whole of academic life.Since the president of the NSA is amember of the Military ManpowerCommission of the American Councilon Education the views presented herein Chicago will probably carry a greatdeal molre weight than the general runof stated student opinion.

Regarding the loyalty issue, the ex-ecutive committee asked that studentstaking the basic ROTC course atschools where it is required not beforced to sign a loyalty oath. Hovw-ever, where the student has the option

The group also suggested that a per- I of not taking the course the accept-.

Colleges PusbingRed Youth QuestFor Uo S. Visas

Student leaders at six colleges anduniversities have urged Secretary ofState John Foster Dulles to grant a|group of Soviet student newspapereditors permission to visit the UnitedStates.

In a letter sent December 16, thestudent leaders informed SecretaryDulles that their student councils andeditorial boards had invited the Sovieteditors to visit their respective cam-puses and urged him "to grant thegroup permission to come to the Unit-ed States to visit these campuses andany others that might be interested inhaving them as guests." A similar let-ter was sent to Attorney GeneralBrownell.

The Russian student editors wereoriginally invited to this coiuntry bytwo American college editors, DavidBarney of the Reed Quest and RichardWard of the Chicago Maroon, whenthey visited the Soviet Union a yearago.

During the past summer the Rus-sians applied for visas to come to thiscountry, but the State Departmentsuggested that they reapply at a timewhen many of the colleges they want-ed to visit would be in session, whichthis group is planning to do shortly.

Signing the letter to SecretaryDulles in behalf of their respective or-ganizations were representatives ofBryn Mawr College, University ofChicago, Haverford College, LincolnUniversity, Oberlin College, andSwarthmore College. Several othercolleges have also expressed a desireto act as hosts to the Russians.

~ ~~MEN

With the cost of dating rising higher and higher (seems theonly pleasure that costs the same these days is Philip Morris),it is no wonder that so many of us men are turning to discusthrowing. Naturally, we would prefer nuzzling warm coeds toflinging cold disci, but who's got that kind of money? Pricesbeing what they are, the average man today has a simple choice:dating or eating.

Unless the average man happens to be Finster Sigafoos.

Let me tell you how Finster Sigafoos, a man no smarter, noricher, than you or I, solved his dating problem. Finster cameto college with the normal ambition of any average man: hewanted to find the prettiest coed on campus and make her his.He looked long and carefully, and at last he found her- a talljob named Kretchma Inskip, with hair like beaten gold.

He asked her for a date. She accepted. He appeared at hersorority house that night, smiling, eager, and carrying a bou-quet of modestly priced flowers.

"Now then," said Kretchma, tossing the sleazy flora to apledge, "where are we going tonight?"

Finster was a man short on cash, but long on ideas. He hadprepared several attractive plans for this evening. "How wouldyou like to go out to the Ag campus and see the milkingmachine?" he asked.

"Ick," she replied."Well then, how about running over to the dental school to

fool with the drills ?""Bah," she replied."Well, what wvould you like to do?" he asked."Come," said she, "to a funny little place I know just outside

of town."And away they went.

The place was Millionaires Roost, a simple country inn madeof solid ivory. It was filled with beautiful ladies in backlessgowns, handsome men in dickeys. Waiters scurried about bear-ing costly eats on flaming swords. Original Rembrandts adornedthe walls. Philip Morris trays adorned the cigarette girls.Chained to each table was a gypsy violinist.

Finster and Kretchma were seated. "I," said Kretchma to thewaiter, "will start with shrimps remoulade. Then I will havelobster and capon in madeira sauce with asparagus spears. Fordessert I will have loads of out-of-season fruit."

"And you, Sir?" said the waiter to Finster."Just bring me a pack of Philip Morris," replied Finster,

"for if ever a man needed the soothing, steadying, beneficentaromas of mild vintage tobaccos, it is me now."

So, smoking the best of all possible cigarettes, Finster watchedKretchma ingest her meal and calculated that every time herfetching young adam's apple rose and fell, he was out another97. Then he took her home.

It was while saying goodnight that Finstel got his brilliantidea. "Listen !" he cried excitedly. "I just had a wonderful notion.Next time we go out, let's go Dutch treat!"

By way of reply, Kretchma slashed him across the face withher house mother and stormed into the house.

"Well, the heck with her," said Finster to himself. "She isjust a gold digger and I am well rid of her. I am sure thereare many girls just as beautiful as Kretchma who will under-stand the justice of my position. For after all, girls get as muchmoney from home as men, so what could be more fair thansharing expenses on a date?"

With good heart and high hopes, Finster began a search fora girl who would appreciate the equity of Dutch treat, and youwill be pleased to hear that he soon found one.

Today Finster goes everywhere and shares expenses fifty-fiftywith Mary Alice Hematoma, a lovely three legged girl withsideburns.

STUDENT FACULTY RELATIONS

It may come as somewhat of a surprise to many people, but,despite what appears to be a constant antagonism, the relationsbetween the faculty and students of the Institute are far betterthan student-faculty relations at many highly respected schools inthe nation. Nevertheless, it is needless to say that there still re-mains much that could be done to further relations between thetwo groups.

There are many students who will fail to see any need forfurthering student-faculty relations, and, in fact, feel that the lessthey have to do with the faculty the better, and undoubtedly thereare teachers who feel the same about the students. At the recentInstitute Committee discussion meeting on student-faculty rela-tions, however, several suggestions were made that deserve con-siderable thought on-the part of student government in the nearfuture.

One of the primary suggestions brought forth was a proposalthat the faculty committees that are most concerned with studentattitude and opinion, such as the committees on freshman orienta-tion, the curriculum, and the auditorium, have a student member,or at least a student "adviser" or liaison man. Such a student wouldof necessity be one who is interested in the work of the committee,and who is capable of adequately expressing the sentiments of thestudent body as a whole. He would be in a position wherein hacould communicate with student government, and offer their sug-gestions and criticisms to the faculty committee.

As an example of such a system, Eldon Reiley '55 participatedin the discussions of the faculty committee considering future usefor the auditorium. As president of the Undergraduate Associa-tion, he was able to present the views and suggestions of Insommto the committee.

A second, and similar, suggestion made at the same confer-ence was to invite faculty members to student government meet-ings, to speak and advise on problems in which they are especiallyinterested. Under such a plan, different members of the facultywould be invited to the Inscomm meetings, and the dormitoryhouse residents would be encouraged to work more closely with thehouse committees, and so on.

Such an arrangement would give student government the ad-vantage of knowing the position of the faculty on certain matters,and, in many cases, would also give them the benefit of advicefrom a more experienced source.

It may be argued that the students do not want any interfer-ence on the part of the faculty in their affairs, and likewise thefaculty does not want student interference. However, the benefitsgained through the representation of both student and facultythought, and the fuller understanding developed between the twogroups more than offsets the disadvantages of any possible inter-ference by one group in the affairs of the other.

AT LONG LAST

With the official opening of the new M.I.T. hockey rink to-morrow afternoon, Director of Athletics Ivan J. Geiger will witness

the long-awaited fulfilment of one of his dreams. Thanks mainlyto the persuasiveness of Professor Geiger, the school now has afirst-class skating rink in a convenient location, a rink which willprovide not only a home for the M.I.T. hockey team, but will alsoincrease the recreaticn facilities available to the entire Institutecommunity.

through the mailTo the Editor ef The Tech:

Dear Sir:I would like to take this opportunity

to express my thanks to the variouspeople who were responsible for theUgly Man contest and to those wvhoaided in my election.

First of all I would like to give mythanks to Miss Joan Slinger of B.U.,for her very considerate, uncompro-mising and active contribution to aidin such a noble cause.

Certainly there was nobody whocontributed more in time and effort inmaking the contest a success than Mr.Don Norman of the A.P.O. He de-serves the congratulations of all inhandling the contest so well.

Also my hearty thanks to Messrs.Wint, Calenkaris, Camacho, Llaguno,Sonnenburg, Musgrove and SeniorTaquilla for their part in executingthe campaign which enabled me to beelected.

The experience of participating inthe contest and being able to observethe wonderful cooperation and goodfeelings of all the groups of peopleconcerned is one which I shall remem-ber as being one of the highlights ofmy experiences during my stay inAmerica.

Respectfully yours,Mario de Jesus Pacheco de Figueiredo

To the Editor of The Tech.:

Dear Sir:Would it be possible for you to cor-

rect a statement you made in yourcoverage of the Frosh-Dean meet?You stated therein that Dave Wilsonhad broken the 100-yard Freestylerecord in 2:06.7. The time is correct,but the event was the 200-yard Free-style, the old record held by FrankConlin '47. We are not too loaded, butwe definitely are not interested in aman who does a 2:06.7 100.

I would appreciate it if you couldnote that mistake in a post-Christmasissue of the paper. It would makeWilson feel much better, I'm sure, ifyou let his friends know that he isnot quite that bad. ' . ...

The Tech FRIDAY, JANUARY 7, 1955)

by William J. Alston '56

The MIT Choral Society, under thedirection of Klaus Liepmann, will pre-sent Sunday, January 9, performancesof Mozart's Requiem and Igor Stra-vinsky's Mass at Sanders Theater.Performing with the chorus will bethe Zimbler Sinfonietta and assisting.artists. The soloists are: NancyTrickey, soprano; Eunice Alberts,alto; Donald Sullivan, tenor; and PaulMarthen, bass. Tickets are availableat the office of the Director of Music,MIT.

Stravinsky's Mass, written for mix-ed chorus and ten wind instruments,was first performed in Milan in 1948with boy altos and sopranos. Themusic reaches back to the early con-trapuntal Flemish school, and thoughthe modal writing suggests the dis-tant past, the dissonant counter pointis primarily of our time.

When the work was introduced inthe United States in 1949 there wasconsiderable difference of opinionamong the critics regarding the suc-cess of the composer in producing re-ligious music. Olin Downes wrote in

the New York Times that the Mass"is singularly bereft of either spirit-uality or human feeling ... Nowhere,except in the few measures of theHosanna, was there anything to implythat the music was intended for actualuse in a religious service. Nothingcould be further removed from thespiritual than the trivial march em-ployed in the Christe Eleison."

On the other hand, Arthur Bergerof the New York Herald-Tribune foundthe work to be of "uncommon purityand remarkably unforced religioussentiment . . . This Mass, as a whole,is a work of beauty and has the simpledirectness of truth."

Such controversy indicates how in-teresting a work the Mass is, andSunday's concert promises to be ex-citing.

The president smiled.The place: East Campus' TalbotLounge. The occasion: one of the bi-weekly Wednesday night coffee hours.

Once every other week, at about8:CO, a group of East Campusitescrowd into the dormitory's mainlounge to meet one or more membersof the faculty and administration. Theaccepted protocol is that anythinggoes. Conversation leaps from theordinary to the extra-extraordinary.There will be gripes about marking,teachers, commons feeding, and therest of the gamut of student frustra-tions. There will be tall tales, serious'philosophical discussions, and predic-tions of things to come. This is thetime for the undergraduates to get tounderstand the mysterious upper func-tions of the Institute and to get toknow the people who run the func-tions. Perhaps also for the first timedo the students realize that the ad-ministration is run by human beingsand not by the secret commands ofgiant IBMI machines. But it is not aone-sided affair. These coffee hoursafford a rare occasion for the faculty

and administration to know and un-derstand student views. Studentsclamor for front row seats. Invitationstendered are readily accepted. Every-one gains at these meetings.

This year's guests have includedProf. Hans Mueller, Dean AlbertSpeer, Dr. James Means, Prof. andMrs. Holt Ashley, Prof. Ivan J. Gei-ger, Prof. Ernst Levy, and Prof. and Mrs. John Goodenough. The selectionof guests alone indicates stimulatingevenings and this indication has nevergone awry. Laughter is never lacking.Nobody can forget the long conversa- tion in Swiss German between Prof.Mueller and Pirof. Levy. When their tcommon origin was discovered it seem- ted as if two long lost brothers had cbeen reunited. Nor can anyone forgetthe unassuming question launched at ;Dean Speer. "Dean Speer, what do you I

-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~en pe."enSer htd o

do?" All present will recall the en-thusiasm shown by Prof. Geiger whenthe news came in that Tech had wonits first basketball game. He mademany of the should-be rooters hidetheir heads in shame.

This is only one facet, however, andperhaps a lesser one. No one presentat the time left the coffee hour with-out a greater sense of security afterhearing Dr. Means and his predecessorDr. Dana L. Farnsworth speak on theInstitute's health program. Nor couldthose attending any one of the numer-ous discussions on the broad educa-tional policies of PI.I.T. have had any-thing but an enlightening and ex-tremely constructive evening. This in-cludes faculty and students alike.

These coffee hours direct a broadsideagainst one of the most difficult prob-ems facing any progressive educa-tional institution in the world today.They are definite forward steps inbreaking the barrier of communica-tion between student and teacher.With functions of this type becomingncreasingly frequent, the Institutenay someday be able to achieve aolution to this problem.olution to this problem.Skating Rinkr

Willicm N. Zartman is studying for a B.S. in Chemical Engineering at theUniversity of Illinois. Last summer he worked in the Technical Laboratory atDu Pont's Chambers Works to gain industrial experience. He has not yetselected a permanent employer, however; and right now he's asking the kindof questions which will help him select the right job and plan a successful career.

Sheldon Isakoff answers:An advanced degree would undoubtedly have a favorable effectin technical work, Bill, but let me enlarge on that just a little.In my own field-chemical engineering-a doctorate is consid-ered to be evidence of demonstrated ability in carrying outoriginal research. An advanced technical degree is thereforehelpful in obtaining work in research and development, wherethat skill is definitely important. You might say it gives a mana head start in proving his ability in those areas.

It's less important in some other areas, though. For example,in production or sales work a manifest ability for handlinghuman relationships is just as important for advancement astechnical competence. If an engineer is sold on production workor sales, a graduate degree in marketing or business adminis-tration might be more helpful to him than advanced technicaltraining-in getting started.

But I've noticed this at Du Pont. Once a man lands a job inhis chosen field and actually begins to work, his subsequentadvancement depends more on demonstrated ability than oncollege degrees. That's true throughout the entire company-in scientific work, administration, or what not.

So an advanced degree is not a royal road to anything atDu Pont, Bill. But when coupled with proved abilities, an ad-vanced technical degree is unquestionably helpful to a man inresearch and development work. It often gives him a chance to

)N demonstrate his abilities more rapidly.

Robbery(Continued from page 1)

Christmas money, Wanger's sense ofhumor failed him. Realizing that hewas holding onto a burglar by thecoat lapel, Wanger yelled "George" atthe top of his voice, hoping that hiscompanion of the evening was stillawake. "George" appeared. A differ-ent George but a welcome one never-theless. It was George LaFontant ofthird floor Holman. Right behind himwas Harris A. Notarys of Ugly Manfame. The burglar was hustled backto the room and while Wanger calledthe police, LaFontant and Notarysstood menac:ngly by-as only theycan do.

Before the police arrived there ex-isted what is known as an awkwardsituation. Wanger, a golf enthusiast,pulled out a No. 9 iron which he couldbrandish over the thief. About thenthe thief reached into his pocket andcarefully withdrew ... a pack of ciga-rettes. The boys after getting up offthe floor remembered that nobody hadthought to search the culprit. Wangerexchanged the No. 9 iron for a No. 7,just in case.

Six burly members of the Cambridgepolice burst into the room, and whileone of them surrounded him, theothers made a search which revealedcigarettes, glasses and an empty wal-let. Questioning revealed that thethief had a record and had previouslybeen arrested for armed robbery. Thisgave our heroes quite a start.

During the questioning, everyoneseemed sort of embarrassed, includingthe police. Nevertheless, the bestDragnet techniques were employed.The next day Wanger and LaFontantappeared in court but the villain was

by Jerry MarwellThis being the time of year when my high-esteemed (and higher-paid)

colleagues in the business of writing sports come up with many, many All-Something teams for the past football season, we too, have succumbed to thebug and have picked our dream intramural squad. Since our league (braveboys that we are) does not follow the one-platoon rule set down by the NCAAand uses instead free substitution, we have chosen both offensive and defensivesquads, to give everyone a chance. Some players of course are expert in bothof these parts of the game and appear twice in our selections.

Before making our final choices we solicited the opinions of everybody weknow vwho is supposed to be informed about the intramural situation at theInstitute. The list of these persons includes, Jack Merkle intramural footballmanager and his staff of referees, and the various members of the sports staffof this publication. After putting the IBM cards of the three selections thatthe five of them came up with through the digital computer, we decided that allof them should make the squad.

"Different types of work appeal todifferent men,"' says Donald O'Brian(A.B., Indiana, '50), in the TrafficDepartment with Indiana Bell Tele-phone Company. "For me, I'll takea job that keeps me hopping. Andthat's just the kind of job I have.

"You'd hinki that after two yearsI'd have all the variables pinned down.But it doesrn't work that way. Whenyou supervise telephone service forthousands of different customers whose

needs are always changing, there'salways something new coming up.

"I started with Indiana Bell in 1952,after two years in the Army. My train-ing program exposed me to many dif-ferent kinds of telephone work-cus-tomer contact, personnel, accounting,operations. I saw a lot of jobs whichlooked as interesting as mine. Asmuch as I like the kind of work I'mdoing now, I bet I'll like my next spoteven better."

Don's enthusiasm for his job is pretty typical of howmost young college men feel about their telephonecareers. Perhaps you'd be interested in a similar oppor-tunity with a Bell Telephone operating company, suchas Indiana Bell... or with Bell Telephone Laboratories,Western Electric or Sanldia Corporation.

Gift Weber was woefully off form,was unable to hit throughout thegame, especially during the secondhalf. Larry Hallee '56, usually depend-able starting forward, had what wasprobably his worst game ever. Hailee,who played little of the contest, didnot score. Hess arnd Britt turned intheir usual fine performances. Vergun,rebounding beautifully, played what isprobably his best game so far. Thehigh-scoring spurt of MacLaughlin,fifth scorer in the nation at present,was, however, too much for the Bea-vers in their comeback attempt. Theywill face Clark Saturday night atRockwell Cage.

STUDENTS ARE ECSTATIC about Luckies. That's the word,straight from the latest, largest college survey ever. Again,the No. 1 reason Luckies lead in colleges over all otherbrands, coast to coast-border to border: Luckies tastebetter. They taste better, first of all, because Lucky Strikemeans fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is toasted to tastebetter. This famous Lucky Strike process tones up Luckies'light, good-tasting tobacco to make it taste even better.So be smart, like the student in the Droodle above, titled:Lucky smoker swinging in hammock. Swing to Luckies your-self. Enjoy the better-tasting cigarette .. Lucky Strike.
