During Shortages

If perchance you have stumbledinto the ditch now being chipped outof the frozen sod of East Campus, youmay have wondered who picked thistime of year to begin plowing a gar-den. The answer is that no garden isbeing plowed at all, but the CambridgeWater Commission is beginning workon an auxiliary water nmain to supplythe Institute in case of failure of themain line. The work is to extend overthe next several weeks.

Outlines Physics HistoryTo begin his discourse on science,

Dr. Wiener outlined the history of thegrowth of physics as we know it to-day. Before Galileo, the "EpicyclicTheory of Celestial Rotations" wasquite adequate; but as the number ofknown celestial bodies increased, theinadequacies of this theory becamemany. Kepler solved the problem withhis work on the "Heliocentric Theoryof Rotation" as we know it today.Newtonian physics gave a satisfactorydescription of the universe until ad-vances in scienlce could not be elai..n-ed by the limited Newtonian mechan-ics. A more complete description wastherefore needed and found in theunited field and quantum theories. Yetwe are still in a quandary, for both ofthese theories although satisfactorywithin themselves, are inconsistentwith each other.

Derives Basic PrinciplesFrom this sketch Prof. Wiener ar-

rived at a few basic conclusions in re-lation to scientific research. "When anew theory is presented," he said, "thescientist shouid not accept it withouta reason, and yet in rejecting anytheory he must be sure to have a rea-son for his rejection." Dr. Wiener alsoincluded in this sumnmation the idea

Convocation ProgramThe convocation will begin with se-

lections by the brass choir, followedby an opening carol. The glee clubwill present Christmas numbers andthe scripture will be read by EldonReiley, '55, president of the Under-graduate Association.

A progress report of the Commuter Committee was presented to Inscommat its last meeting, Wednesday afternoon, in Litchfield Lounge. The gist ofthe report of the committee was that the commuting population of the Insti-tute feels left out, and doesn't have the school spirit that is found amongother groups on campus. Also the commuters do not have a true representa-tion in student government.

Under the present system the commuter representative to student gov-ernment is chosen by the 5:15 Club. The fault with this system is that the5:15 Club is more of a social organi-zation than a political one. Besides it is not a true organization of the en- %Doctor N 1 Wienertire commuting population. The clubcan accept only a small portion of Lectures Beforethem, and any person chosen by theclub is therefore not a true commuterrepresentative. 3keptics Senm nar

The main problem facing this groupis one of communication, which re-sulted in the collapse of an earliercommuter organization in the earlythirties.

Dean Howalrd Thurman of Marsh Chapel at Boston University, who wasrecently listed as one of the 12 most outstanding preachers by Life magazine,will speak at the annual Christmas convocation Monday at Rockwell Cage.

Dr. Thurman has had wide experience in lecturing and speaking. He hasbeen awarded many honors for his activities in these fields, including Fellowof the National Council on Religion in Higher Education; chairman of a pil-grimage to India, Burma and Ceylon; Ingersoll Lecturer on the Immortalityof Man at Harvard University; Merrick Lecturer at Ohio Wesleyan Univer-

Eden Theological Seminary.Dr. Thurman has also written sev-

eral widely read books in his field.His works include Thle Greatest ofThese, Deep River, D'eep is the Hun-ger, Meditations of the Heart andThILe Creative Encounter.

Before coming to his present posi-tion, Dr. Thurman organized and de-veloped a unique church, which is aninterracial, intercultural and non-sec-tarian venture in religious fellowshipand experience. The church now in-cludes more than 1000 members liv-ing in more than a half-dozen coun-tries. He now serves as minister-at-large of the church.

Bulletin Boards VotedAs a partial solution, Inscomm vot-

ed to place bulletin boards in WalkerMemorial and the basement of Build-ing 2 for the use of commuters. Onthe same topic, Inscomm recommended"that sleeping facilities for commutersbe provided." Such facilities wouldprovide sleeping space for a small feeto those students who occasionally findit difficult to get home after a late-ending activity.

By a straw vote, members of Ins-comm expressed approval of this pro-posed addition to student government.

On a related topic, Executive Com-mittee suggested that the term "com-muter" be redefined. It was proposedthat residents of Westgate not be con-

Goal $2000The "Food Crusade", sponsored

jointly by CARE and the Foreign Op-erations Administration, will begin atthe Institute on Monday, followingthe Convocation in Rockwell Cage.Members of the Institute family willbe able to purchase one of the mostvaluable Christmas gifts of moderntimes in terms of spiritual signifi-cance.

Under a new plan, whereby surplusfood stored by the Department ofAgriculture is processed and packag-ed by Foreign Operations Administra-tion, one is now able to send a 14 lb.food package to Europe at a cost ofonly 50 cents. At its Wednesday meet-ing, Inscomm unanimously adopted aresolution supporting this program,urging the participation of all mem-bers of the Institute community. Thegoal here is $2000.

In order for this program to con-tinue, CARE must raise 1 /4 milliondollars for the project before the firstof the year. Using surplus foods willnot only benefit the receivers, but itwill decrease the % million dollar perday "ax bill Americans pay for thestorage of the bumper crops of thelast few years-enough food to feedBoston for two centuries.

An Emergency CARE Committeehas been established here by studentsand faculty, and has drawn supportfrom many campus organizations.

Members of the Emergency, CARECommittee are: Ken Fletcher, '55,chailman; Vinay Ambegaokar, '55;Larry Andrews, '58; Steve Cohen, '56;Glen Jackson, '55; Oliver Jons, '56;Bob Morgan, '65; Hank Salzhauer, '57;Chan Stevens, '55; Pete Toohy, '55;Prof. W. V. A. Clark; Prof. J. T. Nor-

Andrew GyorgyCompletes SeriesOf Three Lea ures

Professor Andrew Gyorgy complet-ed his series of three lectures in thefield of International Relations with atalk on "The Basic Principles of SovietForeign Policy" in the Library Loungeat 5:00 p.m. last Monday.

His analysis of the subject consistedof five major points. First, Russiandiplomacy has a foundation of "Sus-picion" and "Distrust" due to perpet-ual difficulties involving border defi-nition and warm water ports androutes (such as the Dardenelles). Per-haps the greatest factor contributingto suspicion and distrust of foreignerswas the intervention of several for-eign armies in 1919 at the time of theRevolution, and their occupation ofRussian soil. This fear of restorationof the Czarist regime and interven-tion by foreign arms was basic forStalin as a theme of his policies to-ward the West, and led to expectationof military difficulties.

Second ofi the list of basic prin-ciples and following directly from thefirst is that "War is Inevitable", andacceptable as part of the long-termsocial upheaval which must occur in:apitalistic countries. The Communiststheorize that revolution and war arevariations of the same thing, part ofpredetermined, inexorable history.Wars, although to be avoided since

Burton House held its greenery-hunting trip up at Dartmouth inNew Hampshire last week-end, andthe Decorations Committee was suc-cessful in obtaining three trees anda large quantity of other shrubbery.These are being used to fix up the410 and 420 lobbies and entrancesand the Burton House Lounge.

The Burton group also moved toinform the Secretariat of its disap-plroval of Voo Doo's recent advertise-ment. In East Campus, an amend-ment was proposed which would re-quire that all proxies for committeemembers be residents of the same.c..st.tuency as their appointer. Thismotion will be voted on next week.

East Campus also appropriated $2()for playing cards.

A Door-Decorating Contest is inprogress in Baker House. The win-ner will be selected by two membersof the faculty.

COtv9MMUTER PROBLEM

An example of the half-hearted and hesitant manner in whichInscomm has conducted many of its investigations in the past yearis the problem of the large number of commuter students at theInstitute. Last April, Inscomm considered this problem a seriousone, sufficiently serious, as a matter of fact, to include it as one ofthe six major discussion topics at their annual leadership confer-ence. At that time many constructive suggestions were made, notonly by members of Institute Committee, but also by the facultyand administration men who were present.

Since April, however, Inscomm has done little constructivework. None of the suggestions made at the leadership conferencehave been carried into effect. Institute Committee has at least dis-cussed the problem, and some suggestions were made at the lastmeeting. It appears that Institute Committee is hesitant, if notafraid, to disturb the existing archaic system of commuter govern-'ment.

It should be evident to most people that the commuter govern-ment is far from representative. Its politics are dominated almostentirely by the 5:15 Club, which is made up of a small percentageof the total commuters at the school. The remaining commuters areso disorganized that they have little hope of accomplishing any-thing constructive.

As a partial solution to the commuter problem, both that ofadequately representing them in student government, and that ofproviding them with sufficient desirable space to relax and study,The Tech offers the following program.

1. Abolish the 5:15 Club as the official organ of the commutergroup, and reorganize it as a Class A activity.2. Create a Commuter Council, consisting of representatives fromthe various suburban areas in which the commuting students re-side. Such a council would have jurisdiction over problems per-taining to the commuters, much as Dormitory Council has juris-diction over the dorm residents.

3. Increase the lounge facilities reserved for commuters, prefer-ably by creating one or more Commuter Lounges in the main Insti-tute buildings, or, if this proves impossible, in Walker Memorial.Plans for commuter space should be also included in the designof the Student-Alumni Center on West Campus.

4. Encourage the various departments and courses to set asidelounge space, not only for the commuters, but also for any otherstudents who choose to spend their free time in the school build-ings.

5. Provide sleeping and cooking facilities at a nominal price fol Ithose commuters who fied it advisable to remain at school over- Inirght occasionall~r.

j whether Senator McCarthy was guiltyof contempt of the Senate or a sena.torial committee involves his conduct:with relation to the Senate Commit--tee on Rules and Administration. An-analysis of the three amendments re--ferring to this general matter (be-.ing amendment (3) proposed by Sen-ator Fulbright, amendment (A) pro-posed by Senator Morse, and amend--.ment (7) proposed by Senator Flan-ders) reveals these specific charges:-

"(1) That Senator McCarthy re-fused repeated invitations to testifybefore the subcommittee.

"(2) That he declined to complywith a request by letter dated No-vember 21, 1952, from the chairmanrof the subcommittee to appear tosupply information concerning cer--tain matters involving his activities-as a Member of the Senate.

"(3) That he denounced the sub-committee and contemptuously refus-ed to comply with its request.

"(4) That he has continued toshow his contempt for the Senate byfailing to explain in any manner thesix charges contained in the Hen-ning, Hayden, Hendrickson report,which was filed in January 1953.

" We have decided to consider anddiscuss in our report under this cate-gory the incident with reference toSenator Hendrickson, since the con-duct complained of is related direct-Iy to the fact that Senator Hendrick-son was a member of the Subcom-mittee on Privileges and Elections.This incident is referred to in theamendment proposed by SenatolFlanders (30), the specific chargebeing:

"(5) That he ridiculed and defam-ed Senator Hendrickson in vulgarand base language, calling him 'aliving miracle without brains orguts.' "

The Charges: Category Two-In-cidents of Encouragement of UnitedStates Employees to Violate the Lawand Their Oaths of Office or Execu-tive Orders.

"This category involves -allegedstatements by S en ato r McCarthymade at and during the hearingsbefore the Special Subcommittee onInvestigations for the Committee onGovernment Operations of the UnitedStates Senate pul suant to SenateResolution 189, and reveals the fol-owing charges:

1. "That Senator McCarthy openly,in a public manner before nation-wide television, invited, urged, andincited employees of the Governmentto violate the law and their oaths of3ffice.

2. "That he invited, urged, and in-ited such employees to give himlassified information.

by Everett H. Trop '57(Ed. Note: Thi~s is the first in a .sernesof articles dealing witt the recentSenate proceedings)

The purpose of these articles is toreveal the facts of the recent Senateaction as supported by the records-the Congressional Record. It is not.intended to editorialize here, but rath-er to -resen~t -- preose vital pictureof the events just comnpleted nr thefloor of the Senate, as they were en-acted.

Senate Resolution 301, to censurethe junior Senator from Wisconsin,was placed before the Senate by Senl-ator Flanders on July 30, anld threedays later this resolution, togetherwmith proposed amendments, was re-

ferred to a select committee to becomposed of 3 Republicans and 3Demzocrats and named by the VicePresident. On the fifth of August,the following appointtnents weremade by him: from the majority, theSenator from Utah (Mr. Watkins),the Senator from Kansas (Mr. Carl-son ), and the Senator from SouthDakota (Mr. Case). From the minor-ity, the Senator from Colorado (Mr.Johnson ), the Senator from Missis-sippi (Mr. Stennis), and the Senatorfrom North Carolina (Mr. Ervin).Mr. Watkins was chosen as chair-man, and Mr. Johnson as vice-chair-man.I

This committee had been endowedwith a gl ave responsibility, that ofevaluating the conduct of a fellowSenator, and deciding whether thatSenator was guilty of misconduct.The committee recognized its responl-Isibility at the very outset, as wasexpressed by Senator Watkins in thismanner: "Now, at the outset of thishearing, the committee desires tostate in general terms what is in-'volv'ed in Senate Resolution 301 andthe Senate order on it, which author-ized the appointment of the selectlcommittee to consider in behalf of,the S~enate the so-called Flanders res-olution of censure, together with alltamendments proposed in the resolu-tion. s

Frosh Hoopsters ImpressIn 60-55 Huntington Win

The freshman basketball team opened up their home season Wednesdaywith an impressive 60-55 victory over a well balanced Huntington Schoolquintet. It was the second consecutive triumph for coach Roy Rogers' year-lings who had previously defeated the Trinity frosh 81-53 in their culrtainraiser. Rogers, who began his chores as freshman mentor last year, has al-ready surpassed the 53-54 record with these two wins. Apparently Rogers hasdiscovered some fine material this year and has worked them into a playingunit which shows promise of a very successful season. Tomorrow the teamwill meet Exeter Academy in the cage at 3:30 and will be attempting to

Tech Fleet End.sSuccessf u I SeasonWithFrosthbitT;e Win

The sailing team ended a most suc-cessful season last weekend when theywon the Potomac Frostbite Regattafor the Malrvin-Golrman-Byrd Trophyin Washington Saturday and Sunday.Skippers Alain deBere '55 and NickNewman '56 and their clrews Sal Pom-poni '55 and Bill Stiles '57 got off to aslow start and after Saturday's threeraces found themselves in third placebehind Georgetown and George Wash-ington. However Siinday they pulledinto the lead by sailing consistentlyand always finishing in the first fourplaces. Navy also pulled up Sundayand breathed halrd on the Beavers'necks but after the eighth and finalrace Tech had a 6Y2 point lead overthe midshipmen. Final scores were:M.I.T. 125%/, Navy 119, George Wash-ington 106, Georgetown 103, CatholicU. 100, Stevens 94Y2, Webb 76, Mary-land 67, and Detroit 62.

Nine FirstsThe team completed the season with

a record of nine firsts, three seconds,and one third. Notable among the firstplaces was the Lipton Trophy in whichthe team defeated the Oxford Univer-sity team in the first British-Americanintercollegiate dinghy championship.Several members of the team willtravel to England next summer for areturn engagement for this Trophy.

For all this much credit should begiven to Alain deBerc, the team cap-tain, who is also rounding out the yearas President of the IntercollegiateYacht Racing Association of NorthAmerica and the New England sec-tion thereof.

The defending MSRA class "B" champion MIT varsity squash team mrove(linto first place in the league with successive wins. They have an individualrecord of 13 and 2 with both individual losses coming in a hard-fought matchagainst the MIT Faculty-Grad team, last year's runner-up and this year'sbiggest threat.

Hermlosilla UndefeatedJuan Hermosilla '57, number one man, is undefeated in three matches.

Hermosilla is ineligible for intercollegiate competition as a transfer student.who play in intercollegiate matches asbehind Howard Cohen '57, are also un-

Ray Morales '55 and Walt Stahl '56,numbers two and three respectively bdefeated. Cohen has lost one match,which was in the 3-2 Tech defeat ofthe faculty-glrads. Don Steig '55,playing numbelr five, has lost one ofhis three matches, to Hossein '54 co-captain of last year's fine team.

Hot CompetitionThe faculty-grads will be strength-

ened soon by the return of Shep Holt,their number one man, and shouldthen provide hot competition for thevarsity in its quest to defend its title.

The varsity has notched 5-0 winsover Lincoln's Inn Society, a HalvardLaw School group, and over UnionBoat Club in addition to the win overthe faculty-glrads.

avenge last year's defeat at the handsFirst Half Deadlock

Reviewing the Huntington contest,the first half was a tight battle pittingM.I.T.'s rebounding strength againstHuntington's ball handling ability.Center Mac Jordan netted fourteenpoints on tap-ins and assorted shortrange shots. Ernest Irwin lookedeffective in tying up the oppositionunder the boards, and Tech rallied toa 31-31 deadlock at half-time.

The fast-breaking visitors quicklytook a three point advantage afterintermission. They missed other scor-ing opportunities because of poor leadpasses to men who had broken awayfrom the Tech defenders.

The Tables TurnAfter a time out called by Rogers

a more stable Tech team took com-mand. Jordan hit twice from under-neath and Dave and Paul Larsonscored from the outside to put theRogermen in front by four. Jordanfouled out shortly after, but despitethis loss M.I.T. was never headed.Irwin also committed five personalswith more than eight minutes remain-ing, putting two key men on the

of the prep school.de Leon '56, Bob Millard '55, Bill Bate.man '58 and Charlie Diebold '58 haswon its first four matches and leads2-0 in another. Their overall 19-3 in-dividual record has put them in anexcellent position to retain the titlewon last year.

One LossThe othelr Tech entry in "D" compe-

tition has lost but one match and thatto last year's runner up by a 4-1 scorte.This is an all-J.V. outfit composedof Dave Morse '56, Gene Vinson '56Elliot Cramer '55, Pem Shober '56 andWalt Frey '56.

The play of Engineel MSRA tealsis following the trend started lastyear. In previous seasons, the MITentries had been the league's door-mats, but it looks like Tech MSRAsquash squads are in for anotherchampionship year.

bench. However, Dave Rachofsky filledin adequately and combined with DaveLarson to control the backboards.

The team worked smoothly in thefinal minutes as Dave Klein, one timeSouth Dakota high school all star,teamed with Paul Larson in an effec-tive freeze which proved invulnerableto the Huntington press. Rachofsky'slast bucket in the waning seconds icedthe verdict.

Jordan High ScorerRagazzio of the visitors was out-

standing in the pivot. He was the highscorer with 24 points, and his finefaking forced Jordan to foul out early.Jordan collected 22 points giving hima total of 53 in the first two contests.He is not too strong defensively, butwith a little seasoning should becomean excellent nucleus for the team.

Overall the team has fair shootingability, steady back court men, andenough depth to continue their win-ning ways.

As football fades slowly in the East, basketball assumes more and more of the intramural limelight. By this time most of the wheat has been sepa-rated from the chaff and it has become failrly apparent just which teams wvillfind their way into the finals. This isn't the only thing that the season so farhas brought out. It has also focused attention on some unsavory facts aboutstudent attitude towards intramural sports.

Let's face it, intramulral spolrts, more than anything else in the Institute

alre run off, for and by the student body. The varsity pi;ogram and-athleticclasses are run by the Institute because the administration, to some measure,demands that the students participate in them. Intramural sports, on the otherhand, exists only because the students' want them. Without this desire the program should fold. The program is

not only something for the studentst.n use. it is their responsibility. It

ulty teams, Club Latino and Burtoni House. This is quite a record. Refereeshave to be paid, expenses met, butobviously these people don't care.

Thnr there's the problem of basket-ball referees. Ref's get paid, an added

i inducement to turn out for the job.This does not mean, however, thatpayment of dues absolves everybodyfrom supplying referees. There hasbeen plenty of complaining about poorofficiating. Usually only one ref worksa contest where there should be two.Why? Is it the basketball manager'sfault ? He's got the testing facilitiesto assure good refs. He contacts allpossible candidates. The onus remainson the student body itself. If therewere a sufficient number of applicantsonly good refs would work games, andthe individual load would be less. Itseems, however, that few people carexbout the refereeing situation. Every-body depends on "the other guy."They don't realize that it's their ownresponsibility, that if they don't doit nobody will, and that consequentlythere'll be no intramural games.

Results To DateTo bring us up to date on the intra-

mural standings: ATO seems to bethe ultimate winner in league one. Avictory over the Chem. dept. is theclincher. In league two. as in leaguefour, a problem has arisen. If certainteams hadn't been eliminated a threeway tie would have resulted. Now oneteam only has no losses. The Intra-mural Council will decide whether ornot to declare a tie. East CampusRaiders and Theta Delta Chi are thetwo possibilities. In league three atight battle between SAE and TEPhas developed. We pick TEP, mainlybecause they now have Marty Gold-stein. League four goes to Grad Houseor D.U., probably the grads; andleague five has been wrapped up byTheta Chi. Theta Chi "B", CatholicClub or Walker staff can win leaguesix while East Campus has takenleague seven laurels.

doesn't seem that this fact is fullyappreciated.

Let's take the case of the one fra-telrnity on campus, to give some ideaof a not prevalent, but all too presentattitude around campus. Last year thisgroup didn't supply ref's for footballand were therefore disqualified fromplaying basketball.

Basketball Fees UnpaidThis year they neglected to pay

their basketball fees and were there-fore booted out of the competition.They decided that this was too bad,they had a good chance to win theirleague crown, and have protestedtheir disbarment. On what grounds I

Foreign policy should be prefabri-cated, and given a ' militalry orierlta-tion. Satellite nations are run, Profes-sor Gyorgy points out, by Russiangenerals posing as military advisers,defense ministers, or unadulteratedcommandelrs of the occupying Redarmies. The military cannot be over-valued, nor too much power given tothis ultimate arm of liberation.

The final point in Russian folreignpolicy is the unusual combination ofUtopianism and its attendant prom-ises of unlimited improvement with acynical realism. This contradiction isknown as "The Great Retreat," agradual prostitution of Marxism, andis, perhaps, the most vulnerable pointin USSR Foreign Policy.
