President Du Bridge Tells ofCaltech History and Id,ea
MoessbauerLeaves TechFor Munich
BY TnI HENDRICKSONDr. Rudolf Moessbauer, 1961
Nobel Prize winner in physics,will return to the Institute forTechnical Physics at Munich,Germany, "late this summer."
In a Monday California Techinterview, Moessbauer pointedout that he is not making a complete break; during "the nextthree years" he will come backto Caltech for third term.
Moessbauer gave several reasons for his exit from BridgeLaboratory. A native of Munich,he received his B.S. from theInstitute for Technical Physicsin 1949 and his Dr. rer. nat. in1958. He now intends to helpthe Institute make the changeover from the classical Germanuniversity system to the departmental system as at Caltech.
A second reason given byMoessbauer is that "I don't likethe smog here." Because of thishe selected third term to returnto Caltech; "the smog seems tobe the mildest durhig thespring."
And as a final reason, Moessbauer, grinning broadly, observedthat "I have never remained atanyone institution for over fouryears, anyway."
Moessbauer came to Caltechas a Research Fellow in 1960.He became a Senior ResearchFellow and Professor of Physicsin 1961. In this same year hereceived the Nobel Prize for hisdiscovery of the "Moessbauereffect," used in solid state andnuclear physics and as a test ofEinstein's general theory of relativity.

Two Here WinGuggenheims
Two Caltech professors havebeen awarded John Simon Guggenheim fellowships to work onresearch projects in their fields ..They are Dr. Leon T. Silver, associate professor of geology, andDr. Theodore Y. Wu, professorof applied mechanics.
They are among 312 winners,chosen from 1887 applicants forhaving demonstrated high capacity for scholarly and scientificresearch or outstanding creativeability in the fine arts. (Guesswhich category our professorsare in.) The average award thisyear is $6,040, to slide-rule accuracy. The foundation was established in 1925 by the late Senator Simon Guggenheim and hiswife in memory of their son.Continents and Europe
Silver will use the fellowshipto study the correlation of earlyepisodes in the geological history of the continents, specifically in the pre-Cambrian era.He plans to utilize radiometricmethods of geochronology inNorway and North America.
Wu's project will be researchconcerning viscous effects infree-surface flows. This shouldresult in a better understandingof wakes and related phenomena,and in improvements in the technique for analyzing body motions that create wakes andwaves, such as the motion ofships. The larger objective isthe gradual broadening of fluidmechanics, especially in relationto geophysics and biophysics.Wu plans to investigate the correlations between these fields inB'urope. He explained, "I believeit is important to get away andtake a bird's-eye view of whatwe are doing and what othersare doing."
Caltech's President Lee A. DuBridge addressed a nearly capacity audience yesterday on"The Story of the Caltech Idea."Speaking in the "first studentassembly in our magnificent newBeckman AUditorium," DuBridgerelated "what has gone on inthe past to make this institutionwhat it is, what were the idealsand ideas" of ~he people whobuilt it, and "how it adapted itself to changing circumstances."

HumanismY,Lecture
In Ethical Culture it is notwhat you believe that counts,but "what you do on account ofwhat you believe." The valuesa person has are derived fromexperience. The society takes noposition about things which cannot be proved in a scientific way.A religion consists of three elements - belief, action, and devotion. In this sense EthicalCulture is a religion becausethere is a belief in the brotherhood of man, and devotion andaction to improve man's lot.
The society stands somewhatto the left of both the Humanistsand the Unitarians. The similarities between the groups aremarked because they all lack adogmatic position. The societytakes no dogmatic stand becausesuch would be hostile to newthought.
LeftistSpeaksHere Tonight
Mr. Steve Murdock, left-wingjournalist and political analyst,will speak on "The Press andPolitics in California" at 7:00 p.m.tonight in Chandler Dining Hall.
The Caltech YMCA is sponsoring the event and invites interested stu den t s t 0 havedinner' with Murdock at 6:15 inChandler. (Undergraduates whonormally eat in the studenthouses are entitled to $1.35worth of Greasy food.) Pleaselet the Y office know in advanceif you will be coming for dinner.
M u r doc k has been activein radical activities in California since the 1930's. His firsthand experience with the sometimes turbulent California labormovement includes active participation in the railroad and agricultural strikes that occurred inthis state during the 1930's and1940's. While he is interested inall phases of the California labormovement, Murdock is especiallyinterested in the problem ofmigrant labor.
Following M u r doc k's talk,a reception and informal discussion will be held for those interested at the home of Mr. JohnZeigel. Appropriate discussionenhancing refreshments will beserved. (The Y intends to havea New York Times reporterpresent a different view of California politics in the near future.)
when Amos G. Throop foundedThroop University, with facilities in the Worcester Bldg., located at Green and Fair Oaks,now the Green Hotel. The University was a manual trainingschool for the children of allages that had come to Pasadenasince its founding in '74. With35 pupils, it claimed to be "thebest equipped manual trainingschool west of the Mississippi."But it grew so fast that, in thefall of '92, facilities were movedto two new buildings at Raymond and Chestnut, and theschool was renamed ThroopPolytechnic Institute.

Y PresentsThe Cousins
This Sunday evening, April12th, at 7:30 p.m. in BeckmanAUditorium, the Caltech YMCAFilm Series will present "TheCousins." This film, one of therecent (1959) productions of theFrench "New Wave" writer-director Claude Chabrol, will bethe highlight of this year's filmseries.
The major characters in "TheCousins" are two law studentscousins, who are as different a~two stUdents could .be. The firstis urbane, very bright, nihilistic,and seldom attends classes. Hespends most of his time planningand conducting orgies. The second is idealistic, romantic, andnot too bright. He spends histime attempting to study in thesame apartment complete withits atmosphere of "total dissipation" created by his carousingcounterpart.Hard to Criticize
The Critics found this film verydifficult to appraise, although almost all of them agreed that itwas a remarkable achievement.The redoubtable Bosley Crowther of the New York Times con-sidered the film to be " themost dismal solution to theproblem of youthful disillusion."Pauline Kael, veteran of FilmQuarterly, has written ". " . 'TheCousins' doesn't offer any solution . . . it tells a story."
The explanation for thesewidely different and yet agreeing positions may be found inthe critics' frame of reference.Most unconsciously associatedand identified themselves withthe idealistic, tragic figure inthe film and, as a consequence,have written "dismal" reviews.Others have taken the film as awhole without being aware ofthe complex problems whichChabrol is presenting.
According to J. H. Rickerman,YMCA Film Series chairman,"Weat Caltech, however, need notview this film from the positionof an uninitiated reviewer. Wehave the unique ability to seefrom the position of the principals. This makes our Sundaypresentation an ideal choice forstUdents, in addition to its beinga fine artistic film."
Film notes will be supplied,as usual, and a short will accompany the main presentation.
Admission is 75c.

Alaskan J0 ItRings EarthLike Bell
Ring Effect Discovered
For more than 80 years theoreticians have discussed the pas·sibility of such OSCillations beingtouched off in the earth. Thiswas verified in 1960 when Cal·tech instruments first detectedthe bell-ringing effect from alarge Chilean earthquake. Theoscillations continued for twoweeks before fading out, enabling seismologists to "map"the fault action that caused thequake.
Describing this motion further,Dr. Press said, "In the fundamental mode the earth changesshape, slightly, alternately compressing at the equator and simultaneously elongating at thepoles, with respect to the earthquake's epicenter, and vice versa.The amount of motion in thisoscillation is very small, lessthan the normal tidal motionsof the earth."
':fhe recent Alaskan earthquakeset the earth ringing like a bell,according to Dr. Frank Press,director of Caltech's SeismologyLaboratory. The jolt, of magnitude 8.2 or more, acted as agiant hammer, striking the earthand setting it ringing at its ownnatural frequencies. Due to itsrotation, the earth has two fundamental pitches. Their periodsare 53.1 and 54.7 minutes, or inmusical terms they are about 20octaves below middle C.
Last week Caltech flew twoportable seismological stationsto Alaska to record aftershocks.Dr. Press commented, "Aftershock activity will continue formonths or even years. Thesestations will provide valuabledata on the length of the faultand the amount of strain released. The equipment will include a strong motion seismograph to provide information onground acceleration that will beuseful in designing new buildings for the area.

It's debatable that movies arebetter than ever, but startingthis week they're closer. Forthose who haven't heard, there'sa new, honest-to-goodness artmovie house opened in Pasadena,called the Esquire. Their firstoffering is a French film calledLovers of Teruel. Reports havebeen contradictory, which isgenerally the sign of an interesting movie. I gather it's balletinfluenced, symbolic, and highlyarty, with lots of experimentalinnovations. Students get in forten bits.
Even closer to home is theYMCA showing of The Cousinsnext Sunday in the Beckmanthing. This film is among thebest I've ever seen, and I'drecommend it more than thatif I could think of how.

to tell just what was going on.
It simply does not do to gointo Point of Order as an unbIased observer - one may aswell take Operation Abolitionwith an open mind. Here is anamalgamation, cut and pastedtogether by somebody to illustrate something. It seems obviousthat by cutting and pasting suitably the maker could have"proved" anything whatever thathe wanted. Moreover, the audience is all too likely to forgetthat such a thing as cuttingeXists, and be entirely taken in.I'm not saying that any falsification is present, mind you;but I've heard the film acclaimedas a historical document,' andeven the suggestion that it beshown in the schools. That isutter nonsense. The best thingabout Point of Order is the marvelous jobs of acting turned inby the real life McCarthy andWelch (the army counsellor).T han k s, no doubt, to clever editing, McCarthy comes outwith the visible physical appearance of a no-good skunk, whileWelch comes out a cross between Daniel Webster and Ivanhoe.

TIDS AND THAT
~ QUDI[NC[
Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow is another of the tripartiteilk of Boccaccio 70. The title isirrelevant; the three episodesare all in the present, and theirdisplacement is spatial, withscenes set respectively in Naples,Milan, and Rome. Each episodeis a vehicle for Marcello Mastroianni and Sophia Loren, whoseem to love the chance to demonstrate their versatility byswitching from one extreme ofcharacter to another. Of the threesketches, the first two are whatI'd call humdrum; the last oneis very funny.
Good Hearted \Vhore
Of numbers one and two, I'llonly say that they're put-up jobs,cliches about Naples and Milanthat even I, who have no acqUintance with Italy beyondwhat I get in the flickers, recognize as tired. Everybody inNaples is loud, passionate, poorand warm-hearted; everybody inMilan is rich, sophisticated, andrather bored. In number three,Miss Loren is a Roman callgir1,and Mastroianni is a feverishlyavid member of her clientele.Proceedings are interruptedwhen Loren accidentally captivates the young divinity studentwho lives next door. The humorof the thing is provided by Mastroianni's foaming at the mouth,as his purpose is thwarted byone thing after another - thisis the best thing he's done sinceDivorce-Italian Style. Miss Loren brings a satisfactory lighttouch to the role of goodheartedwhore, and she's very, very easyto look at. The biggest drawbackto Y. T. & T. is that it is avowedly, aggressively trivial, providing no intellectual or spiritualnourishment whatsoever.

PE Revisited
Editorials
When the new PE program was discussed and decided lastyear, the general consensus of opinion was that there existeda desperate need for a change of systems. After a trial of twoterms, the PE progra mhos shown to the majority of the students a marked improvement. In an evaluation of this program, the California Tech has some comments and suggestions.
To begin with points we like, the idea of only two yearsof PE and a two-day-per-week requirement coupled with anadequate instructional program is good. By the time a manhas reached the age of nineteen or twenty, the decision of howmuch athletic activity he should participate in ought to be hisown. The only advantages of having PE in college at all is tosatisfy those who enjoy athletics and give the rest an opportunity to tryout a few sports in hopes they will find one that theywill enjoy. Two hours per week is much easier to fit into acrowded schedule than three. Anyway two hours of instructalPE is worth much more than hours of playing volleyball in thesmog.
The grave forebodings heard last year that Interhouseand intercollegiate sports would suffer because juniors and seniors would not come out without required PE has been provedcompletely unfounded.
However, complaints have been lodged about the PE system. The major criticism heard from the sophomores is thatthey have to take a different activitiy for each term. Somepersons complain that they have just gotten to enjoy an activityand are geting some good out of it when they must go on tosome other sport which they do not like. To be specific, whyshould a person who has discovered that he enjoys tennis beforced to take weightlifting or badinton, which he neither enjoys nor benefits from? The same holds true for frosh who arerushed through six activities per year. The Tech bel ieves thata choice of activities should be offered with the possibil ity foran ndividual to skip some sport, for instance gymnastics, forwhich he is not physically or psychologically suited.
The Tech would like to see the possibility for sophomoresof repeating a sport twice. This could be arranged so thecoach of a soprt would approve the repeating of that activityby a person. This approval would be based on the coach's opinion of the benefit to the specific person of continuing the activity.
The Tech bel ieves that the PE program should be designedfor the enjoyment and benefit of the students, and not whatthe PE department thinks we need to exericse our frail unexercised bodies. An hour of PE should be a time of fun and relaxation from classes and studies, and not a long hour of uninteresting drudgery.

The Caltech varsity n i n eopened its league season Saturday by dropping a pair to Whittier, 7-1 and 5-0. The losses, whileannoying, were not really surprising since Whittier is thehands-down favorite to win theleague championship this year.
The story of both games layin the Whittier pitching., In thefirst game a southpaw by thename of Jones threw a three-hitgame without really trying. Thiswas the first time the varsityhas ever seen Jones, but thesophomores had seen him before as frosh and had warned therest of the team what to expect.When Jones retired the first manwithout throwing anything thatour own chuckers couldn't match,the sophs took a little gas.

It won't be easy. By 1980 most Americans will live in 40 large metropolitan areas-eachwith more than a million population. To keep your community from becoming a "Jamsville"will take people with ideas - ideasthat can help cities move more trafficswiftly, safely and economically.
Someofthe ideas comefrom the menand women of General Electric who,in effect, form a "Progress Corps."
In major cities, they're helping todevelop balanced transportationbuilt around rapid rail-transit systems . . . and they're providingadvanced equipment to power andcontrol the trains. They're also developing a TV monitoring system thatenables a single engineer to controlmiles of auto traffic ... a jet engine
that speeds commuters in a hydrofoilship over the waves ... and anotherjet engine to lift travelers over trafficvia turbocopter at 150 mph.
Traffic is only one of many problems General Electric people areworking on. Their numerous projects, in this country and around theworld, demand a variety of talents:engineering, finance, marketing, law,physics and many others.
If you'd like to join the "ProgressCorps" after graduation, talk to yourplacement director. He can help qualified young people begin their careersat General Electric.
