The lucky Juthors weretreated to a short campus tourshortly before the first session ofthe symposium. Such notablecampus landmarks as the Flem'scannon, the (former) sync lab,and the roof of Millikan wereshown to the group. The authorsretired to the Athenaeum afterthe tour to prepare for the firstsession of the symposium at 4p.m.
The afternoon session got offto a late start, but the time wasfilled humorously by Harry Harrison with some assistance byRandall Garrett. All the authorsfinally did arrive by 4: 30 p.m.
Discussion centered vaguelyon the nominal topic for theafternoon-"The relationship between Science Fiction and Science" or something like that.Most of the authors agreedscience fiction does not teachscience, but Poul Anderson put itbest when he said. "Sciencefiction is the tribal bard ofscience. "
A question and answer (?)period followed the discussion,highlighted by pointed questionson th" portrayal of women inSF. Dr. R. Feynman, a littleknown particle physicist drewthe greatest applause of the

One theory has been putforward that this is primarily dueto the functions of the offices:the Secretary is primarily concerned with making sure thatjobs get done, regardless of howthe work is accomplished; theVeep, as a member of the BOC,has received consecutive years oftraining in making sure thatthings are done by the book.Sometimes (though not often),these goals clash.)

:~,kenhances the powerful tunes withhis own force and energy. Thereis much more to flamenco thanwhat one sees in cheap B movies.with a girl all rose-toothed and 3
scrawny dancer with pants muchtoo tight. Flamenco is a life·force, the life··force of thethousands of people whose livesthe songs and stories portray.
The song that I enjoyed most,and the one that the majority ofthe audience talked about asthey left, was entitled somethinglike "Saita." This song, done asan encore, is based upon anEaster processional in a part ofSpain. During the procession, thecornets and drums sound, alldone by the guitar. WhenMontoya plays, you hear theinstruments approach, play, andrecede into the distance. Theeffect is magnificent. I call thepieces he plays songs, althoughthe only voice is that of theguitar, because that is all that isneeded. Senor Montoya com·mented that "My English, it isnot so good. My Spanish, that isvery good." Both dwindle in thepresence of his music and guitar,for these speak his true language:Life.

On Friday, March 8, JamesKetcham (72) and Michael Muskin (73), both graduates ofDabney, were sentenced to 2-5years each in the Arizona StatePen for possession of dangerousdrugs.
The charges arose from theirarrest in December, 1972, withthree grams of LSD and variousother drugs in Kingman, Arizona.

When Carlos Montoya playsthe guitar, the music weaves apowerful spell, enhanced by thefact that he seldom speaks, neverbreaks the mood created by themagic of flamenco. During hisperformance at Beckman Auditorium, he spoke not a wordduring the three sets of music. Itwas not until he returned for anencore that he spoke the words,"Thank you." It was strange tohear such an absolute master of atype of music thanking hisaudience for being caught up byan irresistable magic and enjoyingit.
Montoya was the first flamenco guitarist of note to reallyset down and arrange the folktunes of Spain and retain theirflavor and fire. The music ofgypsies and other peoples whomade up the Spanish world allhad their musics, and Montoyamore than reproduces them, he

I was recently upset to readan article (OCRC Proclaims People's Wall) in your newspaperwhich referred to the oil industry's cooperation with Caltech as"collusion." This implies somesort of wrongdoing, and irresponsibility on the part of theindustry. Nothing could be further from the truth.
It is the OCRC and otherradical groups like it tha t are thetruly destructive inf1uences inour society. Although they claimto represent "The People," theyin reality reflect only their ownself interests. I sincerely hopethat the OCRC does not receivemuch support from the Cal techcampus.' - Peter R.

This is yourkey to unprecedented calculatingcapaci~ Only Hewlett-Packard offers it
It lets you "speak" to your calculator with total consistency, because. it lets you load data into a 4-Register Stack. This means: (1) you always
enter and process your data the same way, no matter what your problem;(2) you don't have to re-enter data; (3) you can see all intermediate dataanytime.
Our HP·45 is one of two pre,programmed scientific pOCket-sizedcomputer calculators with this key. That's one reason it's the most powerful pre-programmed pocket-sized scientific computer calculator. Hereare three of many others:
1. It's pre-programmed to handle 44 arithmetic, trigonometric andlogarithmic functions and data manipulation operations beyond thebasic four (+, -, X, +).
2. It lets you store nine constants in its nine Addressable MemoryRegisters, and it gives you a "Last X" Register for error correction ormultiple operations on the same number.
3. It displays up to 10 significant digits in either fixed-decimal orscientific notation and automatically positions the decimal point through,out its 200-decade range.
Our HP-35 is the other. It handles 22 functions, has one AddressableMemory Register and also displays up to 10 digits in either fixed-decimalor scientific notation. It's the second most powerful pre-programmedpocket-sized scientific computer calculator.
Both of these exceptional instruments are on display now. If you'relooking for unprecedented calCUlating capacity for your money, by allmeans see and test them.

OCRC Censored byWinnett Fuehrer
by O'CrickLast Monday night, the Of
ficial Campus Riot Committeeheld a meeting in the Trustee'sRoom of Millikan Library. Thechief item of discussion was thenow infamous inciden t of lastFriday in which the OCRC wasdenied its right to free speechand expression of ideas asguaranteed in the U. S. Constitution. Several OCRC memberswere apprehended while pu ttingup posters in Winnett StudentLounge, a gathering place symbolic of the free flow ofstudents' ideas.
We asked OCRC President,Madam R, to describe theensuing events for the Tech: "Wehad just finished putting up theposters, when suddenly we weresurrounded by a self-appointedgroup of Gestapo agents, led byWinnett Secretary Flora(Fuehrer) Constanten, who immediately tore all of our postersdown. Supposedly this act offascist oppression was done inorder to prevent the posters frombeing seen by the TV cameraswhich happened to be in thelounge at the time. It is not clearwhat Flora was afraid of. Certainly a few "Violence Is Golden" posters seen on TV wouldnot precipitate a national revolution. Why censor these harmlesspieces of paper? Better youshould have censored the greasyWop who won the spaghettieating contest.

Page Six THE CALIFORNIA TECH Friday, March 15, 1974
If you think Kodak is justpretty pictures,youought to have
yourchest examined.When a chest x-ray shows that you have a potential
killer like TB or cancer, it's not a pretty picture. But it's animportant picture because it can help the doctor detect andcatch the killer in time. .
When doctors are out to catch these potential killers,they want the sharpest, clearest x-ray films they can get. Andthat's why people at Kodak spend so many hours creatingnew and better x-ray film equipment. Already, the results in-
clude convenience for the patient, economy for the hospital,an even more useful tool for the radiologist-and, most impor-tant, reduced radiation exposure. .
Researching and creating better x-ray films is goodfor our business, which is why we went into them in the firstplace. But it does our society good, too - which isn't a badfeeling. After all, our business depends on our society--so wecare what happens to it.
KodakMore than abusiness.

In response to a questionfrom the audience, the writersdiscussed their working habitsand the worlds that they create.Heinlein researches Lintil he feelsready, then writes straight-14hours a day. seven days aweek-until he finishes, Silverbergis content to write a little, everyday.
All the authors expressed theirability to live mentally in theworlds they create, but most ofthem are relatively content tolive for real in the here and now.One exception was Larry Nivenwho said that he wouldn't mindliving in any of the worlds of his"known space" series after the24th century.

The Evening OpensThe evening session opened
with the screening of a shortdocumentary en titled "Lunchwith John W. Campbell." Thefilm covered the development ofa story line between writersHarry Harrison and Gordon R.Dickson and Analog editor JohnCampbell.

In other action at the meeting, the OCRC invited people toexpress their opinions on thePeople's Wall. They explainedthat it is the only way that theycan get any feedback from thepeople, considering that theirmeetings are secret.
Madam R was asked what shethought of "streaking," the newcampus pastime. She replied,"The aCRe firmly disapprovesof this childish sport. The OCRCprefers to engage in moredestructive forms of' activity.Streaking can in no way benefitour cause, unless of course thestreakers have 'aCRe' tattooedacross their buttocks."
Next weekend the OCRC willhave a poster party. There willalso be a discussion aboutpossible retaliatory action againstFlora. Bring your own lunch.

"To this act of repressivefascist censorship, the OCRC canonly respond by quoting one ofits prophetic posters: 'Why?' TheCommittee is truly dismayed tosee such strong opposition fromfellow students and from Flora,certainly one of the last peoplewe would have expected to be abourgeouis reactionary. Despitethe setback, the Will of ThePeople prevailed, as an anonymous sympathizer [blondeFlem with a cane] prominentlydisplayed one of the posterswhile she was posing for the TVcameras."
DirtyIn its first People's Revolu

"As you all know, Dr. Smithhas been sending out threateningletters to undergraduates whoviolate campus parking rules.Well, Dr. Smith, the OCRCknows that you were parked in ayellow loading zone behind Baxter Hall for at least three andone half hours last Fridaymorning.
