Lawyers ConsultedInstitute lawyers have been con

tacted by the Junior Prom cornnittee to determine the possibilit:of bringing charges against a NeaYork booking firm, Willard Alexunder, Inc., who had handled theibusiness with the Benny GoodmanOrchestra.

The firm had the Goodman contract signed by the committee, andupon its return for Goodman's signature held it, claiming it was inthe business office-"presumablywaiting to see if a better bookingarea could be found for the dateof the Junior Prom. When such anarea was found, in Texas, the firmtold us the band was no longeravailable," a committee membercommented.

Since no contract was signed byboth parties the lawyer consultedwas dubious as to the strength ofa damage suit on the grounds ofverbal evidence. A similar case ofunethical practices by such abooker had come up at Harvardseveral years ago, and was lost incourt.

The committee could hope togain, however, the money lost inpublicity for Goodman, and if aninferior band had been contractedthe money lost in reduced ticketsales. With Lanin, though, who hasas good a name, or a better one,than Goodman this part of the suitwould be very weak.

Willard Alexander has intimatedthat it will give the committeeadequate recompense for the ad-vertising losses; so to bring thecase to court would probably berelatively fruitless as far as finan-cial matters -re concerned.

Lester Lanin and his orchestra, one of the East's leading society and dancegroups, will provide the music for the Friday night formal of JP weekend. Hereplaces the Goodman Orchestra which was formerly scheduled for the event.

Early this week, the Prom committee received word from their New Yorkbooker that Goodman was no longer available, even though the committee hadbeen assured that he would play. His contract had been signed early in theterm by the committee and returned to New York to receive Goodman's signa-ture. Upon repeated requests for a return of the contract, the booker, WillardAlexander, Inc., claimed that the date was certain and that "the contract isstill in the business office."

Earth, after commanding the world's!xclusive attention for several days,

nas retreated slightly from its pre-vious prominent position in the newsto a secondary one, superseded slight-ly by the now complete World Se-ries, and perhaps in a few days, evenby the Little Rock situation. An airof watchful waiting, however, pre-vailed throughout the labs and of-fices of those here at MIT for whomthere is still only one objective-find the orbit of the satellite. Theproblem is basically one of gettingthree accutrate plots of the positionof the satellite, within a reasonabletime interval. This data can thenbe fed into the IBM 704 computer inthe Compton Laboratories, which,given the proper "programming" byDr. Gianpiero Rossoni, should givethe orbit of the "moon".

Those at the Smithsonian Obser-vatory and the Computation Centerare currently waiting only for suchdata. One attempt to get a "fix" wasmade the night of October 9, whenthe satellite was predicted to be duesouth of MIT and about 135 milesaway. The altitude of the satellite issaid by American scientists to varybetween 200 miles and 460 miles inits elliptical orbit. Using one of theweather radar sets on the sixth floorof Building 24 to scan the possiblearea, which the satellite could oc-cupy under these conditions, MITscientists and students saw nothing.This is far from conclusive, however,

since the apparatus was operating atthe limit of its powers, and the datais far from accurate.

Perhaps the most disappointing re-cent development to those throughoutthe world who have "seen the satel-lite" was the Russian announcementthat the third stage of the rockethad not yet left the orbit, but wastrailing the "moon" (which is, by theway, instrumentated, at last report)at a distance roughly estimated tobe on the order of 60 to 100 miles.It is undoubtedly this much larger"third stage" that has been seen attwilight by various lucky peoplethroughout the world who werelooking skyward at the right time.

Year. It represents the first step toawrds one of man's longsought goals, travel outside the bounds of the earth.

Besides the fact that MIT's "704" was used to computethe course of the satellite, the launching has other signifi-cance to the Institute. As one of the leading science schoolsin the country, it shows MIT (and the world) the im-portance of science and technology in our modern world.

Thus the day last week when the Russians launched thefirst earth satellite will prove to be a major milestone inthe history of interplanetary travel.

ell.eg e world

"FROSH UPROOT TREE, TROY, IN FROSH WEEKCLIMAX. Freshman week, including the Grease. Rush,March on Sage, Banner Rush, and Phalanx Dance com-menced last Monday morning." Not project Vanguard, notLittle Rock, and not the w-orld series could take priorityover this bold head in the Rentsslaer Polytechnir last week.As a matter of fact, campus passions quite dominated everycollege newssheet. UConn's daily featured an article re-viewing the results of campus shenanigans. It includedthese quotes by UConn deans: "(during a wild springweekend) there was too much rowdyism and dunkenness";".... There has not been enough discretion used in drink-ing, and there has not been a definite closing time forparties." Student government should "insure rapid andeffective improvement of the social atmosphere of thecampus"! Simultaneously the University of Pennsylvaniaquoted the governor as saying "(only) The individualstudent would be held responsible for (poor) conduct inregard to the consumption of liquor".

Mount St. Mary's College editorialized on "YouthfulViolence", beginning "The teen-age criminal is rapidly be-coming a commonplace entity", and asking "Who is toblame for (this) situation, terrible as it is? Rumble any-one?" And even behind the walls of the Harvard Yard wefind that "Several youths, believed to be college students,last night deposited a large moose-head before the statueof the Virgin Mary situated beside Father Feeney's head-quarters on Bow St."

At B.U.: students mobbed the goalposts before a footballgame had ended, eventually clashing with policemen, whotook them to be Brink's bandits. Southwestern LouisianaInstitute also finds editorial space in which to discussstudents' mishandling of an honor system, which demandsreporting anyonfie who so much as cuts in line.

This year no field day and no purple shaft are scheduledat Tech; and the Institute's rational wheels are simplygrinding out the same old engineers. One other newssheet,though, the Toike Oike of the University of Toronto, car-ried a commentary pertinent to this week's college world."Snake dances, pajama parades, bonfires, and pep ralliesare all part of college fun and life. The problem is know-ing when to stop, and that is what separates the men fromthe boys. Show that you have an adult sense of responsi-bility in your college hijinks. Have all the fun you want,as long as it doesn't... damage or demonstrate disrespectfor the law and for society.

e to alLast week the Russians hurled an earth satellite into the

sky. Some people are considering this a disastrous propa-ganda defeat for the free world. Western scientists assureus that we could have had the first satellite in the sky if've had sent merely a transmitting unit into space, as theRussians appear to have done.

The scientific significance of the launching is far greaterthan the political significance. Scientists are far more con-cerned with the bcundaries of the earth than its divisions.Though it would hiave been wise for an American satelliteto have been first in the sky, it is still a great victory in thestudy of the earth during this International Geophysical

TWe have been informed that onlyone test will be given during theculrrent academic year and that thiswill take place sometime in the"Spring." Therle will bhe a deadlinefor nmaking application, so be sure towvatch for it in The Tech and on thevarious bulletin boalrds.

Every effort is being made to keeppace with changes in the varioussix-month programs. It is importantto keep in .mind the fact that thereis a six-month plan for men withcritical skills and critical occupationsand that this is velry different fl£rothe other six-months programs. Weare informed that the six-monthscritical skills plan has not workedout and that it is now under dis-cussion in Washington. This may de-velop into a deferment policy con-trolled by the Scientific AdvisoryCommittees which have been set upin each state to select men for thepresent six-months critical skillsplan which has broken down. As soonas we succeed in acquilring the facts,we will offer them to Tlhe Tech.

The following Xas released byHeadquarters of the Advisory Com-mittee on Military and SelectiveService here at the Institute:

The Administration at the Massa-chusetts Institute of Technology es-tablished Headquarters of the Ad-visory Committee on Militalry andSelective Service five years ago tohelp students and Academic Staffmembers with their military serviceproblems because they are convincedthat scientific and engineering edu-cation is vitally important to the wel-fare of our country. We are now Io-cated in Room 20-E226.

We believe that each student shoulddecide for himself what course heshould follow, but we do try to sup-ply complete information on allphases of military service and theSelective Service System by makingvaluable contacts and by keeping upwith the constantly changing situa-tion. By knowing all the facts, astudent may make an intelligent de-cision.

Freshmen and all other studentswho have not done so, should defi-nitely plan to take one of the Se-lective Service College QualificationTests. Last year's Freshmen did ex-ceptionally well, according to the rc-turns we have already received fromnthe students. Of the 240 who have re-ported their scores, 202 received ascore of 80 or over, which means thatthey are eligible for five years ofGraduate School as far as SelectiveService System regulations are con-cerned. A score of 70 is passing forundergraduate studies.

Historically, the process of combustionhas excited man's insatiable hunger forknowledge. Since his most primitive at-tempts to harness this phenomenon, hehas been tremendously fascinated by itspotentials... perhaps never more sothan today with respect to the use ofcombustion principles in the modernaircraft engine.

Theorems of many sciences are beingapplied to the design and developmentof high heat release rate devices atPratt & Whitney Aircraft. In the realmof aerodynamics alone, one of manyairflow problems that exist in combus-tion work is diffuser design for ad-vanced powerplants.

In spite of the apparent simplicity ofa combustion system, the bringing to-

gether of fuel and air in proper propor-tions, the ignition of the mixture, andthe rapid mixing of burned and un-burned gases involves a most complexseries of interrelated events occurringsimultaneously in time and space.

Fuel injection systems which prop-erly atomize and distribute under allflight conditions are a continuing chal-lenge. In later stages of powerplant de-velopment, various combustion prob-lems may be encountered which canbe studied and resolved through thehighlv advanced facilities of P & W A'sWillgoos Turbine Laboratory.

Although the combustion engineerdraws on many fields of science (in-cluding thermodynamics, aerodynamics.fluid mechanics, heat transfer, applied

mechanics, metallurgy and chemistry),the design of combustion systems hasnot yet been reduced to really scientificprinciples. The highly successful per-formnance of engines like the J-57, J-75and others stands as a tribute to thevision. imagination and pioneering ef-forts of those at Pratt & Whitney Air-craft engaged in combustion work.

While combustion assignments in-volve a diversity of engineering talent,this field is only one of a broadly diver-sified engineering program at Pratt &Whitney Aircraft. That program-withother far-reachink activities in the fieldsof materials problems, mechanical de-sign, instrumentation and aerodynamics- spells out a gratifying future formany of today's engineering students.

Going into the second week of theround-robin competition, it appearsthat last year's top teams will headtheir respective leagues again thisseason. In Division A especially, theoutcome looks quite clear.

Division ALeague I

After Sigma Alpha Epsilolln's dem-onstration of power in their 20-6triumph over Alpha Epsilon Pi forthe Sailors' twenty-second consecu-tive victory, they seem to be theteam to beat. They have virtually allof last year's championship squadback again; all-star passer Walt Hu-mann '59, all-star receivers Pete Ho-horst '57, Fred Browand '59, and BobThompson '58, and a line spear-headed by Bob McCullough '60 andDave Berg '58. They meet Pi LambdaPhi this Saturday in what should bea walkaway.

In the other League_ I encounter,Sigma Chi faces a surprising AEPIteam. The former rate a slight edge.

League IIWith a 47-0 rout of Phi Kapna

Sigma under their belts, the Betascould well be SAE's main rival forthe title. They face the Sammies thisSunday. Freshman quarterback Gor-die Gilbert, who passed for fivetouchdowns and ran for one lastweek-end, should again supply thespark with the aid of receivers War-ren Goodnow '593 and Jim Russell'59. The Betas' defense is very solid.

Delta Upsilon, the other League IIvictor in their opener, meets the bat-

tered Phi Kappa Sigma gridders inwhat should be a lopsided contest.DU, led by tosser John Robelrts '61and end Bob Shelton '60, is definitelythe chief threat to another Betaleague crown.

League II[Theta Chi takes on Alpha Tau

Omega Sunday in a warmup for theilrmeeting with the Delts. Theta Chi,runnerup to SAE last year, is ledby Dick "Killer" Beale '58 and ScottLoring '57.

Delta Tau Delta encounters SigmaPhi Epsilon in the other League IIItilt. Passer-receiver Dan Holland '58looks like the key to the Delts' of-fensive fortunes. He'll be aided byend John Crissiran '61 and back MikeHaugh '59. Joe Tims '58 will be astalwart on defense.

League IVWith tailback Al Beard '59 calling

the plays and throwing the majorityof the aerials, Phi Gamma Deltarates the nod over dark horse SigmaNU in Saturday's action. The latter,feature a rock-hard defensive pla-toon, anchored by Chuck Conn '60and Ed Macho '58, and offensive acesPaul Ekberg '58 and Richie Johnson'58. The Fijis are paced by linemanof the year, John Irwin '58, all starChuck Ingraham '58, Bruce Blan-chald '57, and Hal Smith '57.

Ich's Ernesto Macaya heads fhe bell at Arnhersi last Salurday, while the Beaver Varsityoders were on the way to deadlock the Jeffs 3-3, in the season's opener.

e,'er -Team Hopes High

by Ernest Macaya '60

With the strongest varsity teamce the 1954 season, Tech has ex-

llent possibilities of placing highthe Soccer League this Fall. The

kaver hooters nevertheless will facerough schedule, but they have

ovn strong capabilities to turn;n their opponents.The backbone of the team seems toeconcentrated in folrward lineere international players have mas-ed skillful attacks. The halfbackd fullback lines also have excel-t depths to control the offensive

ays and cut down the scoring byopposition.

Top GoalieGuarding the nets, Tech is fortu-ate to have one of the best goaliesMew England, whose sterling de-

nsive play provides confidence torest of the playelrs. Standing outthe team alre: Captain Rod

tandt '58 at Left Fullback, Rudyovia '58 as goalie, Andrus Viiluat the Halfback, Reinaldo Do-'58, Dail Rhee '60, Rudy Villavi-io '60, Manaei Penna '60, andesto Macaya '60 all forming the

wmard line.

New CoachA great deal of the fine, early per-

formances of the team are due to theexcellent work of the rookie coachCharlie Batterman, whose ability toget the most out of his players hasfired up the team's spitrit.

Tomorrow on a home game at 2:00p.m. the engineers will meet W.F.I.whom they were not able to playlast year. Two years ago, however,Tech defeated them 3-1. On October22 at Harvard, the Beavers will meetwith the usually tough Crimsonteam in what may be the best ganmeof the season. Last Fall for the firsttime in many years, Tech dumpedthe Crimson booters. Next Wednes-day also on Briggs Field, the varsitybooters play Tufts, who appear tobe a rough and strong team. Also onthe schedule are Springfield andBrown which should also becomedangerous competitors as the sea-son moves on.

The majority of this year's stalrt-ing squad are players from the Sopho-more class, which provide Tech withdepth for successful seasons in thenear future.

penalty area unassisted. The halfended with the Engineers holding onto the slim 2-1 margin.

The second half started slow butthe Engineers got rolling again mid-wvay tlhrough the third quarter asVicek sent another beautiful pass,this time to Guiellemo Van Ordt whostuffed in the third MIT tally. Thefrosh welre unable to score againbut put up a tight defense to beatoff the desperation attacks of Med-ford in the closing minutes.

Assistant Coach Pete Hohorst '57placed a large part of the credit forthe victory on the shoulders of goalieFrankenhuis who played a tremen-dous game. Hohorst also cited theplay of Don Twyman at right halfand Marques at left inside as ex-tremely good.

The freshmen make their secondappearance of the season tomorrowwhen they meet the perenniallystrong Harvalrd eleven on BriggsField. Last year's freshman squaddowned the Crimson 1-0, for the firstEngineer victory in recent years, and'the boys from up the river will beall out for revenge in what shouldbe one of the nost exciting games ofthe year.

Although this year's squad canfield one of the best freshman soccerteams seen in many years, the depthis negligible. Only twenty men arepresently out for practices and a fewinjuries to critical men could com-pletely ruin the team's chances fora successful season.

The first-year men will have theirfirst autumn test on Nove.nber 2,when they meet the Big Green ofDartmouth on the Charles at 10:00a.m. in conjunction with All-SportsDav. A meet with Andover is beingplanned, but a definite date has notbeen set.

This will be the first fall crewseason since the abolition of FieldDay by the Athletic Association lastSpring. Thus the £rosh will have topoint toward the Dartmouth andproposed Andover competition only,in lieu of the departed race with thesophomores.

On the Cambridge bank of theCharles, a stone's throw from the In-stitute, stands the only public yachtclub in Amelrica-Community Boat-ing, Inc. Begun 17 years ago as aphilanthropic gesture by Joseph Lee,the club lists among its 1700 mem-bers people from almost every walkof life found in and around Boston.Its ranks are enriched by the pres-ence of many foreign students, tour-ists, and sailing enthusiasts. A largepart of the membership is occupiedby youngsters between 12 and 17who are enrolled in the junior sec-tion where they learn to sail and be-come friendly young people insteadof juvenile delinquents.

No previous experience is necessaryfor membership, indeed, most of theclub's new members have never setfoot in a sailboat before. After a pe-riod of expert instruction by a vet-eran melnber, the novice can takeone of the club's 39 boats out on hisown and even invite friends to comealong at certain times.

Membership dues for adult mem-bers are very reasonable: $15 for a30-day membership and $35 for thefull season, which runs from April toNovember.

It is fortunate for the Institute tohave at its door this unique yachtclub dedicated to bringing the funof sailing to all!
