The present strue. ure for the student staff is that each outgoing captain gets virtually full control in selec- ting his successor, and each assistant captain usually gets a say in choosing his own re- placement, with the final de- cision resting with the captain.- The present captain, John Dehne, has been in this post for two years. His successor, Rich Owens '70, will take over. next year and will have the same term of office, barring unforseen difficulties. When Owens was promoted to captain- ;in-training, his assistant cap- tain position was filled by John Ford, also of Phi Mu Delta. This leaves three persons in managerial positions: from CChi Phi, Delta Upsilon, and Phi Mu Delta (Curt Nehring). The four assistants divide up control of all of MIT's libraries. Both assistants and captains are paid weekly salaries, in addition to an hourly wage, since there is a $1.80 per hour ceiling. The duties of the cap- tains are to schedule students, take care of problems in at- tendance and shifts, and in- volve hiring and firing. In ad- dition to regular rates, there are special bonuses for extra work, suth as scheduling at Christ- mas time. The jobs are time- consuming, especially around exam period and before vaca- tions, when no one wants to work; and the captain is obli- gated to replace them.

Smith terms this "ridiculous", since. this merely means a substitution of three subjects with five. The essential purpose of the petition, according to Smith, was to reduce the science load (to 69 hours) as well as to change the con- tent of the currently "oppressive"' load of 108 hours. Smith's tactics are now two-fold. He is calling upon his fellow Course XVII and humanities majors this week to submit their own petitions to the Committee on Curricula. Smith hopes to impress the committee with the number who wish to waive as well as to sub-, stitute requirements. For his own part, he has simply reworded his own petition; he will agree to recommend substitution for those courses he actually wished to waive, but the substitutions he will list will be language and humanities courses. When asked what he will do if the petition fails again, Smith asserted, "Unfortunately, I lack the basic motivation for taking senseless requirements for a degere, because I am in afield which places performance over sheepskins (i.e., diplomas)." Smith's field is journalism, and on the basis of "performance" he has already won an internship with the Wishigton Post for the summer. If his petition is not accepted, he plans either simply to remain with the Post after the summer, or possibly' to transfer to Yale. Another classmate, Jim Woods, is an actor who has also rejected the science requirement because his field allows him to, and he 'is similarly considering not returning. Cotsidering Course IX Smith's original petition had requested the waiving of 5.01 and 8.02, the substitution of 9.00, 17.733, and 7.00 for the three science distribution subjects, and the substitution of 1.00 for the laboratory requirement. In his letter to his course-mates, Smith reported that the committee did appear receptive to the laboratory substitution. He said that they seemed veryopen" to Course IX as being consid- ered science. He reported that he is proposing the substitution of two 12-hour language courses instead of the complete waiving of the science requirements.

descending to the basement of Building 7 for their coffee last week. -<In an effort to relieve Institute gray, three architecture students gworking on their thesis onthe Instituteenvironment staged a weekend >work-in and covered the once-gray wall with a abstract pattern of ..brightness.

Theprojectwas originally conceived April 23 by Stephen Leff '68, cJohn Terry '68, and Arthur Stern '68 the same students who de- Cosigned the memorial to Dr. Martin Luther King. The following Fridayevening work began, and continued through the following weekend. -)According to Stern, the permission they received for the project mwas "vague" and was not received from the Institute authorities CDin charge of physical plant. However, they did receive the approvalof the MIT Committee on Visual Arts, which is chaired by ProfessorWayne Anderson (IV). Stern told The.L__ that the committee toldthe students that they "couldn't see anything wrong" with theproject' The committee added to its moral support by providing allthe funds used in the project.

Spontaneous designPlanning for the project was informal and flexible. For the most

part the designs on the walls were thought up by those who workedon the project as they went along. The students were handicappedwhen the paint they received for the project turned out to be differentfrom that which they ordered. Nonetheless, they went ahead withthe project and did the best they could with the colors at their dis-posal. The selection of colors was made by one of the thesis group,two other architecture students, and Prof. Anderson.

Stern said that reactions to the project have been mixed; manystudents approved of the change, while others had reservations re-garding the design.

Although this project will probably not get underway until nextyear, the thesis group is currently working on plans for renovatingroom 10- 186.

Eighteen months ago we expressed theopinion that the light poles then being erected

< as any passer-by will attest. 'However, therecent conversion of Kresge Plaza into a mini-ul ature junk yard seems to present a far moreserious problem than the light poles, which atleast have the virtue of being relatively clean-

o lined.LtJ Our feelings are relatively simple to ex-L press: Art is art and junk is junk, and never

the twain...Therefore, we must applaud theaction of the "Ad Hoc Committee on StudentEnvironment" in taking a large fraction of thiscreative endeavor and depositing it directlyin front of the door of Prof. Wayne Anderson,who is allegedly responsible forits presencehere. Prof. Anderson's efforts to date havebeen most successful. As chairman of theCommittee on Visual Arts, he has succeededin brightening the campus considerably, thoughlargely with non-traditional works. However,

It has always seemed slightly ironic to usthat the highest award an undergraduate canreceive at MIT (Karl Taylor Compton Award)has its recipients chosen by a consensus oftwo groups: the Faculty Committee on Stu-,dent Environment and the Boston Stein Club.The reason for the latter group's presence onthe Committee seems obvious and harmless-they donated the award in the first place.Similarly, it is obvious that the Faculty shouldhave some say in making awards for "out-standing contributions in promoting highstandards of achievement and good citizen -ship within the MIT community."

However, there is one group whose pre-sence is sorely missed in the selection pro-cess: the students themselves. This lack wasnever felt more than at this year's awardsConvocation. Several students commented tous that most of the Compton Award winnerswere "completely random". The reason forthis can, perhaps, be found above. It is clearthat a structure such as that under which

This issue's front-page article on the orga-nizational structure of the student librarystaffs has revealed some things which wehave suspected for several years, but whichhave never been confirmed. However, it hasbrought an even more interesting problem intothe open. Student activities are watchedclosely by the Activities Executive Board,as any member of Technology Student Enter-prises will attest. Who watches out for nepo-tism within the staffs of the various studentemployment organizations?

At the moment, the answer is no one.Further, there is more need for a judicialbody here than elsewhere, simply becausethe jobs are not of a creative nature. In thelarge majority of this work, the only rewardsan employee can obtain are the money in-

Simply stated,if a person wants a Compton, a good placeto start is by not antagonizing any facultymembers on the Committee on Student Envir-onment.

We propose, therefore, that, if at all pos-sible, the structure for selection of the win-ners be drastically changed in the near futureto include members of both the faculty andstudent committees on environment. In thisway, the awards will become more a pictureof what the total MIT community is thinking,rather than the feelings of one group withinthat body.

One final comment on the awards: Was thechairman of the Stewart Awards Committee(Steve Gallant '68) really awarded .a StewartAward for his work on the committee?

It is time for a close look at all the stu-dent employment areas, to determine whetheror not this is an isolated example or a gen-eral sympton. In any case, it is not a healthysituation, and should be corrected in thenear future by the people in charge of thestaffs.

Paren ts Weekend '68From all comments and observations we

have received, it appears that the members ofthis year's Parents Weekend Committee did anoutstanding job of organizing and directing theweekend operation. Every member of this groupdeserves the thanks of the student body fortheir excellent work.

per'PPo-ar~e aQDeaP AiBap

By Jimr SmithIt is frustrating to those of us who are academic revoluti0 nar1 :

that our own humanities professors, are frequently among the diifenders of the status quo. Our Dean Robert L. Bishop, placed hiself in htis role at the Parents' Weekend luncheon in BuaHouse. Dean Bishop fears that, in "attenuating" the degree of scirence required of the MIT humanities major, the Institute mightn0be taking sufficient advantage of the very strengths of our technic~environment, Let my defense of our revolution be three-fold, i

First, Dean Bishop's picture of our request is one of beemnsimilar to "any old" liberal arts college in the amount of sie1required. In fact, MIT now requires about five times as muchii Sence as "any old" liberal arts college. We seek to reduce this ka factor of two-and-a-half.

Second, we seek to improve the content and direction ofrtesciences which are required. The physics option being offereinext year to freshman is an example of what we are after forthiscience distribution requirement, which presently succeeds 06in leading us so .deeply into a particular field only to leave udangling in mid air with frequently useless information. The Ditribution Requirement, in fact, declares its own irrelevance bAstating its purpose as "providing an arena for departments to cOn:pete for majors." The purpose. of real "distribution" is absenkin the usual definition of the word.

Finally, if the humanities are supposed to derive their strengtifrom the scientific environment through stiff scientific requirementsiwhy ar e the PhD candidates who have given my own departmen(XVII) its great reputation required to have only the equivalent0t8.01 and 18.01? (The science requirement of "any old" liberal~artfcollege; Yale, for example.)

I urge Dean Bishop to consider the fact that the existence 0heavy science requirements might just hpppen to be an anachroi ism. At least, persons like the Dean as much as admit this when[they tell me that I myself am "five years ahead of my time.' WIis it that at the center of an environment which glorifies progressas its most important product, these same people don't snapultheir great insight and decide to bp. five~years ahead of the -times[

As a closing note, I might like to dispell the very notion thaoliberal arts did not fall within the purpose of MIT. The Institute'{charter itself states the three main purposes of the Institute as th!establishing of "a society of the arts, a museum of arts, and!school of industrial science" in that,order. MIT, until it yields t0!our requests, will remain as having fulfilled only a third of itcharter, As for the museum..,

Compl iment

To the Editor:I would like to comment on

The Tech's recent editorial,"Blood at Columbia". Likemany students, I was disturbedand appalled by the reportedviolence on the part of the pol-ice, as well as disappointed inall administrative and studentleaders that police interventionwould be deemed necessary byPresident Kirk and Mayor JohnLindsay.

I want to compliment TheTech for its excellent evaluationof the situation - it is the mostconcise and sensible editorialI have read; I hope that TheTech continues to speak oncurrent news in this way.

I'll call it BogHarbor.

By Bruce JohnsonOn Sunday, May 12, the Third Annual Back Bay

Clean-Up will again turn 250 fraternity men looseto vent their aggressions on the paper that growsso well in the fertile concrete along Marlboroughand Beacon Stieets.

In the last few years, the fraternities in theBack Bay have seen some legislative results ofadult disaffection with the growing number ofstudents in the area. More and more students havebeen taking apartments there, and mobs of studentslooking for action have jammed the sidewalks onwarm Friday and Saturday nights.

To change this image, the IFC has conducted acampaign to show the Back Bay that fraternity menare responsible residents of the community. Throughits Community Relations Committee, the IFC has

conducted a multi-level drive to help adult residentsand officials differentiate between M.I.T. fraternitymen and the Marlborough Street mob.

Again this year, cooperation from the City hasbeen excellent. Parking will be forbidden alongstreets Sunday afternoon to guarantee free accessto the gutters. The Department of Public Works isproviding receptacles for the litter. As soon as thefraternities have done their part,the street-cleanerswill make a rare Sunday appearance. The event willbe covered by newspapers, radio, and television.

As in previous years, a new crop of paper willhave blossomed forth three days after the Clean-Uphas been completed. But as a symbolic gesture,these two hours per year have been of tremendousimportance.

SEMCO .planningfund raisnmg booth

The red, white, and blackpanels which helped tell thestory of Dr. Martin Luther King,Jr. and Racism in America arein service again this week tohelp the South End ManpowerCorporation (SEMCO).

SEMCO was founded a yearago as a community based andstaffed employment referralagency in Boston's South End.it was the first totally non-professional agency in Boston,and began by merely making theinitial contact with a client,and then referring him to a re-gular employment agency. Butthe group soon began to placeits clients itself, and to followup to see that both employer qndclient lived up to their agree-ment. The Office of EconomicOpportunity funded the programthrough 1967, but budget cutshave cut this support, and moneyis needed now to support theSEMCO staff.

The SEMCO Emergency Pund,.whose booth appears in Building10 this week is attempting toprovide volunteer workers andinterim financial aid for SEMCOto reverse its recent contractionin services. In addition, a letterof solicitation has been sent tomembers of the faculty andadministration.

CDr(nCDQu

co¢.00)

By Reid AsheThe controversial Institute

< for Defense Analyses (IDA),E which has been called an instu->: ment of University complicity

with the military, has alwaysn been handled "at'arms length"

LUby its member institutions, saidDr. J.P. Ruina, a former Presi-dent of IDA' Dr. Ruina, nowMIT Vice-President for Special

C Laboratories, explained that thetwelve universities which spon-

I sor IDA have always had a dueregard to the appropriatenessof classified research on cam-pus, and that they do not takean active part in the IDA oper-ations.

Stuctural cageIDA, Ruina said, has a board

of trustees, of which twelvemembers directly represent thesponsoring insitutons, but inwhich there axe a number of.members-at-large. It is thefunction of the Board of Trus-tees to choose the managementand determine to some extentthe institutional policies.

A new proposal drafted byIDA's member trustees in Marchwould alter the corporate struc-ture to make IDA even moreremoved from the member insti-tutions, under the new systemthey would be free agents whoare merely nominated by theuniversities.

The drafting of the reso-luton followed soon after twoof the member institutions,Princeton and the University ofClncago,, voted in faculty meet-ings to change their relation-ship with IDA. The Princetonfaculty voted overwhelminglyin approval of a plan "'to changethe structure of IDA to one inwhich universities are not re-sponsible for its managementand activities." It is believedthat campus protests againstIDA had a part in motivating theproposed change.

The headquarters of IDA isin Alexandria, Va., as are al-most all of its operations. IDA'sonly outlying facility is theCommunications Research Di-vision located in Von NeumannHall at Princeton University,which does theoretical researchin communications and cryp-tanalysis. The presence of thatfacility caused so much frictionwith the students at Princetonthat the University redefindedits campus to put CRD outsideit.

IDA was founded abouttweivE years ago, when the

aspects of the SST by IDA'sEconomic and Political StudiesDivision.

The member institutions ofIDA are the University of Cali-fornia, Cal Tech, Case WesternReserve, University of Chicago,Columbia, University of Illinois,MIT, University of Michigan,Penn States, Prinacetsn Stanford,and Tulane. The MIT represen-tative to the IDA Board ofTrustees is Dr. James R. Kill-ian, Jr,o chairman of the Corpor-ation of MI T.

Ruina said that MIT is en-gaged on the trustee level in

of which $7,060,770 went di-rectly to wages and salaries.

The annual report describedIDA's five regular divisions: theWeapons Systems Evaluation(WSED); the ~Research and En-gineering Support Division(RESD),s the Economic and Po-litical Studies Division (EPSD),:the Communications ResearchDivision (CRD), and the JasonDivision.

DivisionsThe WSED is the first and

the largest of the five divisions,consisting of a research staffof 90, plus 12 supporting pro-

which includes the aforemen.tioned SST stuAdy for the rAA"Civil defense" has includedeconomic studies and systemsanalyses on both national andlocal levels. One of thesestudies is called "The Effectsof Nuclear Weapons on a SingleCity, A Pilot Study of Houston,Texas."

The Jason Division con.sists of 40 to 45 outstandinguniversity scientists who dpvote a large part of their timeto IDA in summer sessions andindividual work. Studies con.ducted by Jason Division haveincluded those of Anti-BallisticMissile (ABM) systems, and ofthe Viet-Nam war.

In addition to the activitiesof the regular divisions, the.annual report listed certaincollateral activites. The first:of these is the Central Research Program, in which research is.conducted which is not directlysponsored by contracts, but which is in anticipation oflfuture needs.

MIT conducts a considerable :amount of classified research,but not within the academicalstructure, according to Ruina,The two MIT facilities whereIclassified research is C0n.Educted, Lincoln Laboratories and the Instrumentation Labora. tories, are operated primarily bya full time professional staff I(although one does find some iprofessors and graduate stu.dents there). [

The Lincoln Laboratories is [

a projects-oriented laboratorywhich has engaged in suchactivities as detection of under.

ground nuclear tests and de.velopment of communication I

satellites. ' _

Defense Department recognizedthe need for sophisticated de-fense analyses which could notbe made within the traditionalmilitary structure. The firstattempts at these analyses weremade within the civil service;when that Failed, the DefenseDepartment approached MIT.MIT recognized at that time thatit would be inappropriate toconduct the Defense Depart-ment's classified work on cam-pus; so rather than take thejob itself, ST agreed to takethe lead in f6rming a "consor-tium of universities" to admino

fessionals. Its activities fall-into three principal categories:those of "strategic weapons;""Command, control, and oper-ational. support;" and $'tacticalwarfare."s

RESD consists of a researchstaff of 82, plus 11 suppotingprofessionals. The principalcategories of its operations are°strategic offensive and de-

fensive weapons," which con-cerns bailistic missile defense;"tactical warfare technology;"and "space systems'."

EPSD boasts 54 researchmembers and three supportingprofessionals, and works pri-marily in the fields of "inter-national security," which in-eludes studies of present andpredicted political, economic,and military events in China andEastern Europe; "defense re-source management;" "civildefense," ' and "civil aviation,"

several projects like IDA. Oneexample he cited is the NewEngland Radio - ObservatoryCorporation (NEROC), which isadministered by a consortium ofNew England Universities. Dr.Ruina and Dr. Jerome B. Wiesner(MIT Provost) represent theInstitute on the board of trusteesof that corporation.

IDA Annual ReportAccording to its annual re-

port of Feb., 1967, IDA has afull-time staff of 625, of whichabout 320 are professional staffmembers, The sources of IDAresearch staff members werelisted as follows: Industry, 37%;Government, 17%;. ResearchInstitutions and Non-Profitinstittiions, 17%; Newgraduates,15%; Universities, 12%; andMilitary, 2%.

The total expenditures forthe fiscal year ended 28 Feb,,1967 amounted to $14,441,089,

ister the work. At first therewere four university membersof IDA; now there are 12.

Ruina said that although IDAtries t get professors on leavesof absence to join its staff, theprofessor's institutional affili-ation is immaterial. In otherwords; if a man were needed, itwould not matter whether hewere at Princeton (a member ofIDA), or at Harvara (not a mnem-ber).

In summary, Ruia said thatuniversity involvement in IDAis more that of administrationthan that of participation in thework itself.

Non-defense workIDA has been called upon

for many sophisticated researchand analysis problems both inand out of the Department ofDefense. An example of non-classified, non-military' studiesis the. study on the economic

Choral Socgie and BSOmembem pedorm tgether

By Ray Ergas

Sunday night, the MIT Choral society joined forces with membersof the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Prof. Klaus Liepmann fora concert in Kresge Auditorium, works by Bruckner, Stravinsky, andBartok were performed.

The first half of the program was devoted to a reading of AntonBruckner's Mass in E minor, which Bruckner originally composedin 1866 and then later revised in 1888. The work is in six parts andis scored for winds, brass, organ and 8-part.chbrus. Apart from someobvious bloops by the horns, the performance was excellent. Thechorus stuck together well, and had a pleasant sound. Their onlyreal problem was with entrances, as they tended to sound a littleunsure of themselves.

After intermission, the concert continued with Igor Stravinsky's1930 composition, the "Symphony of Psalms,"' which is dedicatedto the Boston Symphony. The symphony is in three movements,consisting, of settings of Psalms 38, 39, and 150. The work re-quares winds, brass, 2 pianos, tympani, celli and doublebasses,and a 4-part chorus. prof. Liepmann's handling of the orchestrawas much better than it has been in the two previous performanceshe gave of King David and Carmine Burana.

The final work on the program was the Boston premiere of BelaBartok's Cantata Profana: The Nine Enchanted Stags. Based on aRumanian folk story, the scoring is for an 8 or 16 part chorus,baritone and tenor, and orchestra. one of the reasons that thispiece is so rarely performed is that it requires full chorus, two solo.ists, and really is not long enough to make u p the major portion ofa concert. Noniethess it is an interesting and elaborate study inthe use of chorus and orchestra. The only difficulty was the chorus'tendency to appear lost in the 16-part sections.

Vie tn am Bb eim By Bob Ellenport

A Face of War is a documentary on the VietNam conflict: not on the entire situation or on aspecific battle, but on the activities of one Marinecompany for ninety days. It gives a dramatic andunnervingly realistic view of the fighting men thereand their daily lives. The camara allows you tofollow the company's patrol; you wait and lookat the terrain, never knowing quite what to ex-pect. Sometimes nothing happens; at other times,the first sign of action is the simultaneous screamof a wounded corpsman and an exploding shell,

The film shows the soldiers attempts at com-unication with the Vietnamese villages, theirfootball game during a slack moment, and thebirth of a child (with the aid of a Marine medic).The scenes are both commonplace and exciting,strange yet familiar. We are accustomed to news-reels on the war and it's brutality. It usuallyoccurs on TV at such an innocuous time, that

somehow all the impressions have their realitydrained away from them.

"A Face of War" could have shocked theviewer; instead it choose to present a well-bal-anced combination of the tragic, the suspenseful,and the light moments. The film was "directed"and produced by Eugene S. Jones, who with hiscrew of photographers, filmed the activities ofMike Company. Jones was wounded twice in thecourse of his more than three months shooting onlocation. One wonders how he managed to tapethe sound, especially considering the locale andequipment limitations. The only trouble with thisfilm is its elusive nature: it does not choosesides. Instead "A Face of War" is content toillustrate the affairs of military life without part-icipation. In this respect we have the film'sweakness and it's strength. All it does is portray,and in so doing, provides an interesting viewinto a many-faceted problem America today faces.

70% of the nation's new gradu-ate students being drafted areexaggerated. He envisions 40%as a maximum, and, more real-istically, closer to 10% of MIT'sgraduate students being drafted.

When questioned about theracial imbalance evident inMIT's graduate school as wellas its undergraduate school,Sizer commented that such animbalance was quite evident butbemoaned the fact that veryfew qualified black applicantsapply to MIT each year. Indeed,next year's freshman class atthe graduate school will havevery few Negroes among itsmembers. Sizer commented thataction taken by MIT and severalof the Ivy League schools toinitiate programs whereby blacksfrom underprivilaged areas whowould not ordinarily be consi-dered are now being offeredadmission will provide MIT'sgraduate school with more quali-fied black applicants in futureyears.

themeThese broad areas of inter-

est as outlined by Jack Ander-son are: (1) to bring the Blackstudents closer together in agroup for action; (2) to educateBlack students about the prob-lems facing the Negro in theworld and here on campus; and(3) to make the MIT communityin general more aware of theracial issues and answers inour society.

Although the Black StudentUnion is still trying to finditself as a group, it has begunto involve itself in the issues.Many of its members took anactive part in the recent "TheBlack Community Speaks"series, and its Committee isnow working with the Admis-sions Office on recruiting moreBlack students. This year ninestudents will be involved in asummer enrichment program tohelp make the adjustment easier.

By Mark WilsonKresge Auditorium was the

site this weekend of the MITInvitational Jazz Festival. Hope-fully the festivals commercial,operational, and artistic suc-cess will help to make theFestival an annual event. Or-ganizing credit goes to theMIT Concert Jazz Band, theBaton Society and promoterGeorge Wein.

Friday night opened with theMIT Concert Jazztet. DickCarter on tenor, Richie Orr ontrombone, Stu Schulman on Bassand Ken Madell on drums com-pose the core group; Later SamAlongi on trumpet and DonaldGrolnick on piano were addedto the group. Tufts Universitywas represented by their ConcertJazz Band. The band specializesin Mancini - flavored arrange-ments.

Burton QartetThe second half of the show

was devoted to professionaljazz in the form of the GaryBurton Quartet. It took threesongs for the audience to warmup to the group's rather non-collegiate style, but after the

fourth, "Lines," the audiencewas in Burton's hand. "Lines"is an imposingly rapid duet withBurton on vibes and Coryell onguitar. "Walter L.", the best

jazz of, the evening, followed,Steve Swallow on bass andespecially Roy Haynes on drumspropelled the Quartet to loftyblues. As Burton finished thefirst half of the festival, itlooked as if Saturday-wouldhave a hard time topping Friday;

Saturday started with theBoston College Eagles of Sound,featuring trumpeter-leader JohnTrapini, bassist'Rick Kondrat,and altoist Jay Lipman. Thenext group, the New York Col-lege of Music Jazz Ensemble,took Kresge by storm. From thevery first one could tell thatthis was JAZZ they were play-ing. On - "Unsquare Dance"the soloist were backed by theentire band hand-clapping inunison. In response, soloistGerry Thomas on trumpet, GlenWalker on trombone, and EdgarDrew on tenor and sopranoblew up a storm. Boasting goodarrangements of -good composi-tions and outstanding musicians,this group was in this reporter'sopinion the best big band of thefestival.

PoetTy and pianoContrasting to the straight

ahead blues of the New YorkEnsemble was the Rob HopeQuintet. The group opened withbassistEd- Corey reading poetry,Hope plucking piano strings,and tenorist Tennison blowingflurries of off-color notes. Congaplayer Don Land and drummerDick Willis toughened the rhythmas Tennison tore into somewild avant-guard. The group'spolish and maturity puts their"freedom" under control. Hopeis a talented pianist with goodtechnique but Tennison makestheir music move. He combinestechnique and inventiveness toproduce fiery soles. In thisrep'orter's opinion this quintetwas the outstanding combo.

The MIT Concert Jazz Bandfinished the concert in rousingform. Orr and Carter shared mostof _the solo honors. Bill Gross-man on piano and Larry Cohenon bass were outstanding in therhythm section. Typical of theband's work was the last songof the set, "Moment's Notice."Carter's warm solo on soprano

It was a good week for rock heads. On the heels of Jefferson*Ajrplale's appearance at Spring Weekend ten days ago, came a con-

cert by Traffic at the Boston Tea Party. Traffic is of course thenew group of 19-year-old Steve Winwood, erstwhile prodigy of the

Spencer Davis Group. During their brief existence (ea' six months)Traffic has issued singles of, "Paper Sun," "Hole in My Shoe,",,Here We go Round the Mulberry Bush," and "No Face, No Name,No Number," all of which were big' hits in Britain and equally big, lops in the States. They've had two albums: "Mr. Fantasy" (tit led"fHeaven Is in Your. Mind" in some editions) and the soundtrack",Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush" (done in collaboration with

,the new Spencer Davis Group). (See The Tech, March 8.)Exciting concert

Problems with incompatible sound systems delayed Thursdaynight's show some two hours, after which it was decided to haveone very long set instead of two shorter ones. Long it was - Trafficplayed for a full two hours, performing many extended, improvisednumbers in a heavily jazz-influenced style. The instrumentals cameoff best because of imbalance in the vocal amplification, but the'softer " No Face, No Name, and No Number" and "Dear Mr. Fantasy"were also among the highlights. On the, louder, more driving songs,'however, Winwood's- first-rate blues vocals were almost drowned outin an awesome show of virtuosity by Winwood himself on organ andguitar, Chris Wood on flute and tenor sax, and the star of the whole

-show, drummer Jin Capaldi, whose solos cut anything I've everheard from Ginger' Baker.

After ~their lengthy performance, Wood and Capaldi (who wassoaked in sweat) were understandably tired but friendly and conver-sant. Wood remarked that he used to admire "a lot of jazz people"hut has recently acquired a taste for folk music, mentioning inparticular the Young Tradition (an underground British group) and,incredibly enough, -Janis Ian. Among American groups he listed theGrateful Dead. ("I heard them live recently") andJefferson Airplane(",Steve has jammed with Jack Casady") as his favorites. Capaldilooked surprised'but agreed with my mention of Davis Group drummer

~,Pete York as one of the best. They mentioned' that their formersitarist Dave Mason still appears with them occasionally, althoughhe no longer does any recording but spends his' time producing otherartists. Winwood never plays with Spencer Davis any more, contrary

'~to what I had heard elsewhere. Winwood's older brother Muff, thebassist with the old Spencer Davis Group ,is doing the nine-to-fiveroutine with a London business outfit.

Miller, jazz influenceJimmy Miller, the producer of Traffic's records, has recently

made something of a name for himself. After four years' work withAnidrew Loog Oldham as their producer, the Rolling Stones becamedissatisfied with his work, fired him, and produced "Their SatanicMajestie s Request" themselves. Upon hearing Miller's work withTraffic, however, the Stones signed him as their new producer.

Traffic's jazz-influenced music calls to mind the groups thatare advancing the eclecticism of rock by borrowing from jazz. Jeremyand the Satyrs, Blood Sweat, and Tears (supposedly disbanded,but no confirmation), the Electric Flag, and the Gary Burton Quartet(with former rock quitarist Larry Coryell), who were here for thejazz Festival (see story on page 8), are all getting deeply into

ljazz. The Byrds (who, their album notes inform us, "are eclectic")are doing songs in Brubeck-type 5/4 time ("Get to You" and "TribalGathering").

As a footnote: during last Saturday's interview with Grace Slickand Spencer Dryden, a few explanations of the origin of the name"Jefferson Airplane" were aired. The two proceeded to contriveagrossly off-color acrostic, very little of which is remotely printable.The serious origin according to Grace, is in Jorma Kaukonen's oldnickname of "Blind Thomas Jefferson Airplane" which was providedby an unnamed friend.

By Roy FurmanLoeb Drama Center, which

generally produces the works ofoutstanding playwrights, iscurrently undertaking GeorgeBernard Shaw's "Caesar andCleopatra". The actual prod-uction, however, becomes bla-tantly amateurish far too often;but there are moments, wholeacts, that are trenchantly funnyand poignantly acted.

Using the alternate prologueto the play, the productionalienates the audience withshouting and blustering thatobscures the effect of an omi-nous arrival of Caesar causingthe proud Egyptian soldiers toquake. Shaw discribes Belzanor,the captain of the Queen'sguard, as "a typical veteran,tough and wilful...capable andcrafty where brute force willserve; helpless and boyish whenit will not." Unfortunately,Loeb's Belzanor, who is bumbl-ingly helpless, not boyishhelpless, is manifestly a growl-ing, grumbling stentorian whoblusters his lines as anyonebut a "typical veteran" would.This is not a singular instance,but a too prevalent behavior ofthe earthier guardsmen, soldiers,and royal sychophants.

Seltzer sparklesThe first act is one of the

play's gems with the sparklingportrayal of Caesar by Prof.Daniel Seltzer. After a feeble,but brief, beginning that mirroredthe faults of the prologue,Seltzer became the Caesar ofwarmth and magnaminty with asubtle touch of increduliity thathonorific age and conquestsbring. The Shaw wit that tend-

Coed-Boston YWCAKEI74i~ ~~ cam-.,, 18c

erizes the audience to a nobleCaesar who is greatly takenaback by the naive presumptious-ness of a small ,girl provideslaugh after laugh as the girl,Cleopatra, fences with her inner-most fears while Caesar slowlyand unsteadily begins to graspand master his bizzare situation.

Susan Yakutis as Cleopatranever quite convinces one thatCleopatra is a youthful, littlegirlish queen who posses vis-ions of satanic power but lacksthe courage to execute herdreams, Cleopatra is credible,but something is lacking-poss-ibly too little queenish or co-quettish girlishness or a mixtureof both. As Caesar transforms amalleable girl-queen into woman-hood,' however, the portrayedfigure of Cleopatra assumesmore command both of hercourt and her audience.

Play bounces moodsAbout the fourth act the

play becomes more seriouslydramatic losing the rapport withthe audience gained by innuen-does that comment sharply onthe world of Shaw's experience.The tragic quality seems anaffront after moving lightheart-edly through the first three acts.The dolorous mood providesthe impeteus for Caesar to dis-card the figure of a middle-aged,urbane, slightly self-conscious,and humane gentleman for thatof a revered military leader andexpert tactician, but the tran-

sition is weighty. The playneeds to refrain from bouncingits audience between medio-crity and excellence.

Two excellently portrayedsupporting characters who needbrief mention are Ftatateeta,the Queen's chief nurse' andBritannus, Ceasar's secretaryfrom the isl of Britain. SheliaHart as Ftatateeta is absulutelyshrewish and the arrogant bitchwho is the hidden ruler of Egyptthrough Cleopatra. Garbed in a"moral" shade of blue, LelandMoss is a positively epiceneBritannus who shrivels andcringes at departures from astrict Puritanical and institu-tional morality.-

Though "Caesar and Cleop-atra" possesses some egregiousfaults, the performance of Seltzer,and Shaw's obvious talent forentertaining theatre make theproduction overall a respectableevening of entertainment, butnot an outstanding one.

FROM THE HALLS OF PROTOZOAThis column, normally a treasure house of twin;ly quips

and slapdash japery, has now been appearing in yourcampus newspaper for fourteen years, and if I havelearned one thing in these fourteen long years, it is not totry to be funny in the last column of the semester. Withfinal exams looming obscenely close, you don't want jokes;you want help.

So today, foregoing levity, I give you a quick cramcourse in the subject you are all flunking. I refer, ofcourse, to biology.

Biology is divided into several phylla, or classes. Firstis the protozoa, or one-celled animal. Protozoa can betaught simple things like bringing in the newspaper, butwhen shopping for pets it is best to look for animals withat least two cells, or even four if your yard has a fencearound it.

dolph (Mass) high school since1957. His teams won numerousleague titles and in 1962 wonthe Eastern Massachusetts ClassB state crown.

In addition, O'Brien coachedthe Stonehill College basketballteam to an 85-84 record duringthe last seven years. His bestyear at Stonehill was in the1964-64 season when O'Briencoached his Chieftains to a19-10 mark.

A 1955 graduate of TuftsUniversity, O'Brien was namedthe Jumbo outstanding athletehis senior year. Besides cap-taining Tufts baseball andbasketball teams, he also servedas vice-president of his seniorclass.

Another popular class of animals is the periphera-ashadowy category that borders often on the vegetable.Take, for example, the sponge, The sponge is definitely ananimal. The wash-cloth, on the-other hand, is definitely not.

Next we come to the arthropoda, or inseicts. Most peoplefind insects unattractive, but actually there is exquisitebeauty in the insect world if you trouble to look. Take, forinstance, the lovely insect poems of William CullenSigafoos-Tumbling Along with the Tumbling Tumblebugand Fly Gently, Sweet Aphid and Gnats My MotherCaught Me. Mr. Sigafcoos, alas, has been inactive since theinvention of DDT.

Our next category is the mollusca-lobsters, shrimp, andthe like. Lobsters are generally found under rocky projec-tions on the ocean bottom. Shrimps are generally found ina circle around a small'bowl containing cocktail sauce.Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades are generallyfound at any counter where Personna Super StainlessSteel Blades are sold.

I mention Personna Blades because the makers of Per-sonna Blades pay me to write this column, and they areinclined to get edgy if I neglect to mention their product.Some get double edgy and some single, for PersonnsBlades come both in double edge style and Injector style.

Mind you, it is no burden for me to mention Personna,for it is a blade that shaves quickly and cleanly, slickly andkeenly, scratchlessly and matchlessly. It is a distinct pleas-ure to shave with Personna Blades and to write aboutthem but sometimes, I confess, I. find it difficult to workthe commercial into a column. Some years ago, for ex-ample, I had the devil's own time working a Personna pluginto a column about Alexander the Great, The way I finallymanaged it was to have Alexander say to the Oracle atDelphi, "Oracle, I have tasted all the world's pleasures,yet I am not content. Somehow I know there is a joy I havemissed." ITo which the Oracle replied, "Yes, Alexander,there is such a joy-namely Personna Blades-but, alas foryou, they will not be invented for another 2500 years."Whereupon Alexander fell into such a fit of weeping thatZeus finally took pity and turned him into a hydrant.. Well sir, there is no question I sold a lot of Personnas withthis ingenious cormmercial, but the gang down at theAmerican Academy of Arts and Letters gave me a mightygood razzing, you may be sure.

But I digress. Back to biology and the most advancedphyllum of all-the chordata, or vertebrates. There aretwo kinds of vertebrates: those with vertical backbonesand those with horizontal. Generally it is easy to tell themapart. A fish, for instance, hias a horizontal backbone, anda man has a vertical backbone. But what if you run intoa fish that swims upright or a man who never gets out ofthe sack? How do you tell them apart? Science struggledwith this sticky question for years before Sigafoos ofM.I.- came up with his brilliant solution: offer the crea-ture a pack of Personna Blades. If it is a fish, it will refuse.If it is homo sapiens, it will accept-and the more sapient,the quicker.

And now you know biology. And now, for the fourteenthtime, aloha

Penn downs Tech lightstBy Harry Drab

Tech's heavyweight varsity went down to a surprisingly good

Dartmouth eight last Saturday. Conditions for the race were anythingbut favorable, as a stiff headwind prevailed all day. This wasflected ill the times. Dartmouth turned in a 6:30.6 clocking, thefastest time of the day over the Charles' 2,000-meter course.

Wisconsin, which also sent an-entry to the .heavyweight varsity

race, was about a length back of the Indians, while Tech finished-two and a half lengths behind the winners.

As Dartmouthl has no junior varsity, they sent. only a four-mancrew to race against a four picked from the Engineer JV. The other

four men from Tech's JV raced against a four from Boston Univer-sity. Both Tech boats won easily. Wisconsin did not send a secondvarsity boat of any kind.

The lightweight varsity went down to Philadelphia on Saturday,and found a pair of tough Pennsylvania crews waiting for them.

Lights improveAfter losing by big margins to both Harvard and Cornell on

consecutive previous weekends, the lights found themselves to bea considerably improved crew as they held the Penn varsity in aclose duel for over three-qua/rters of the mile-and-a-quarter course.Penn, stroking somewhere between a 36 and a 38 during the bodyof the race, found itself unable to get more than a few seats aheadof Tech, which was stroking a steady 3212. Finally, however, witha quarter mile left, Penn began to sprint and pulled steadily onTech, finishing three seconds ahead of then with a very good timeof 6:08.5. The Naval Academy, which was also entered in the race,was about three lengths back of the Engineers. Tech's time was6:11.3,

Penn downs JVThe junior varsity also turned in a satisfactory but losing effort.

In this race, the engineers found themselves six seats down withthree-quarters of a mile left. Bringing the stroke up a notch, theythen began to move up, pulling quickly to within a few seats ofthe Penn JV. Penn's sprint saved this one for them too, as theymoved out themselves, finishing five seconds ahead of Techandfifteen seconds in front of Navy, in a time of 6:20.1.

Next week both crews will go to Worcester, Mass. to competein the Eastem Sprints. This will be the last race of the season forthe engineers until the IRA Regatta at Syracuse, held June .13-15.

Tech's first frosh heavies pull hard as theyDartmouth. Dartmouth won by about a lengthsecond to Dartmouth.

By Dan SwiftBouncing back from a 9-0 shutout at the hands

of Andover Academy, the netmen defeated TrinityCollege 6-3 Saturday. The racquetmen are nowsporting a fine 6-3 record with only four matchesleft on the slate. Tech came up with four wins insingles competition and two in doubles to gainthe victory.

sailing team finished a poorthird in the Friis Trophy atTufts. It- was a small regattaand Tech's usual skippers tookthe weekend off. The windswere so light and shifty thatA division never had a beat forits first leg and thus never hada regular upwind start. SteveMilligan '70 and Dave McComb

'70 skippered the A and B divi-sion boats with Chuck Wayne70, Li Liang '70. and Tony

Piccardi '70 as their crews.Tech's good sailing was oftennegated by bad breaks, suchas wind 'shifts which droppedDavte McComb from a one leglead to the middle of the pack-on the last leg of the course.

This week the team will beaiming for victory in the NewEngland Dinghy Champion-ships which will be held nextweekend at Yale. The top twoteams will qualify for the Na-tionals this June, also at Yale,MIT is hoping to increase itsrecord of having won more Na-tional titles . than any otherschool; and Coast Guard, whosepresent skippers won in 1966,will also be out to win again.

By Tom Thomas 'MIT defeated Boston University and. TuftsSaturday afternoon 82-77-33 on the Briggs Fieldoval in warm spring weather. BU captured tenfirst places to Tech's seven and Tuft's one; butCoach Farnham's proteges showed their depthby accounting for a large number of seconds,thirds, and fourths in the 53-2-1 scoring arrange.ment.

The Tech sprinters showed their muscles fromthe start with Bill McLeod '69, John Holding '70.Larry Kelly '70, and Joel Hemmelstein '70 win-ning the 440 relay in 43.7, McLeod and Hemmel -

stein, the only Tech entries in the 100, ran to aone-twofinishwitha 10.5 clocking. Kelly, McLeob,and Hemmelstein returned to sweep 1-2-3 in the220 in 22.7 tb accomplish an -incredible dominanceof the sprints, scoring 23 points to BU and Tufts'combined seven.

Kelly captured an impressive first in the 440with a time of 49.6. The 880 turned out to be avery fast one, with first place honors going toHoss of BU in 1:54.3, second to Stan Kozubek'69at 1:55.6, while sophomore John Wargo's 1:57.7was good only for fourth. Kozubek ran a 9:31.6two mile to merit a second behind Ben Wilson '70who won it easily in 9:19A4. Wilson.earlier leduntil the last 220Ain'the mile run when BU's ace

Why was the order of events in last Sunday's Intramural trackmeet changed on the day of the race? Why were'the top three quali-fiers for the 100 yard dash in the meet placed in the same semi-final trial so that only two of them qualified for the finals? Why wasan undefeated team not able to finish higher than fifth in the footballseason?

These might be examples of incompetence, but more importantlythey hint at the subtle misuses of power and the general lack ofconcern for anything except their own living group that is displacedby Intramural council managers. Certainly not every mamber acts inthis manner but there are all too many instances such as those citedabove.

IFC trophyWhy has this happened? With the IFC decision to offer trophy

to the fraternity with the highest -IM point total, a trophy that therewould be some competition for (unlike the All-Sports trophy peren-nially won by Burton House which has several times the number ofmen in any fraternity), it suddenly became advantageous for a housesto have managers so that their rights were upheld; Furthermore, thepowers of a manager is such that if he is careful, he can. arrangethe schedule so that his house's team has a better chance of makingthe play-offs and gaining more IM points.

Misuse of powerConsequently, those houses that have a stake in the trophy have

supplied the majority of the menagers and in many instances thishas been destructive to competition. Certainly, this misuse of powershould not be allowed, but the Council doesn't seem willing tochange. Their apathy is shown by the sparse attendance at meetings.(Last month the meeting was thirty minutes late because a quorumhalf of the members, was not present). It is further shown whenmanagers vote for candidates not on the basis of their qualificationsfor the managershi,, but on the basis of their house affiliation.

It is time for the IM Council to clean house. It is time for themdo develop a deeper sense than their petty house concern. It is timefor them to make, a choice: They can allow their organization tocontinue its deterioration or they can develop a sense of fair playand responsibility which should characterize IM competition. If it isimpossible for them to follow the latter course, then the IFC wouldbe wise to discontinue their trophy.
