The ASCIT Consolidated Charities Drive will be held on theCaltech campus next week from February 13 to 17. This willbe the only chance, excepting the YMCA drive, for undergrad­uates and graduates to contribute to charities. General chair­man of the drive will be Howard Berg, ASCIT vice president.

The four charities included ---------------------------this year are World UniversityService, The American CancerSociety, The American HeartAssociation, and the PasadenaCommunity Chest.

The 'World University Serviceis supported entirely by stu­dents within university com­munities. It serves studentsthroughout the world, especial­ly in Asia.

The Pasadena CommunityChest acts as a collecting agencyfor 37 different welfare organ­izations in this area. The pre­vention of cancer and heart di­sease are the respective func­tions of the American CancerSociety and the American HeartAssociation.

This year the drive will notbe on a competitive interhousebasis. The faculty, who usuallywait on the dining tables of thewinning house, will probablyprovide this service duringthird term to all the houses.The reason for this change isthe personal nature of contribu­tions.

Representatives in the stu­dent houses will contact allundergraduates and graduatesfor donations. Mike Bleicher inBlacker; Alan Forsythe, Dab­ney; Herb Rauch, Fleming; DickMacAnally, Ricketts; and JimLloyd in Throop Club will beHouse chairmen of the drive.

On the other side,increased enrollment resulted inan additional $200 from studentbody dues, the Little T ad salesnetted slightly more than $100for the ASCIT, and the athleticbanquet was run for $50 lessthan the budget. No doubt fur­ther adjustment will arise asthe year progresses.

Thus, the problem of sendinga delegate to the PSPA conven­tion, a desirable public relatonsmeasure, has been considerablycomplicated. Whether the newpresident will go to Vancouverwill not be decided, therefore,until sufficient funds are defin­itely assured.

Budget Problems

As usual a number of requestsfor ASCIT funds have come upthis year after the budget wasset.

to write humor, but everybodywants to read it; everybodywants to write serious literature,but nobody wants to read it.

Probably the thing that makesthe serious literature so unpopu­lar is its quality. (That may bea pretty vicious cut, but I writethe junk too-I don't excludemy own.) All the stories arethe same, all the "poems" are thesame.

Ayear ago we had two maga-zines here-Pendulum, whichwas more or less a serious liter­ary effort, and the purely hu­mor magazine which bequ~athed

its name to the present mag.(The merger took place last fall.)

Well, while this was the c:lse,the literary magazine was con­stantly under threat of extinc­tion-nobody would bUy it. Onthe other hand, the humor mag­azine was very much in demand;and, even if they did not par­ticularly like the magazine, thestudents were always eager tosee it when it came out.

The William Wilson Co."'Since 1887"'

PradoLast Saturday this writer and

two of his associates had thepleasure of digging Perez Pradoand his orchestra at the Pasa·dena Civic Auditorium. Mr.Prado's orchestra featured thetypical mambo orchestration offour trumpets, one trombone,four saxes and a rhythm sectionconsisting of bass, drums, and acongo drummer. At times Mr.Prado joined the rhythm sectionto interject both vocally and in-strumentally. •

The first number was an un·known composition featuring asimple unison sax melody withthe phrases introduced and com­pleted by a trombone fill·in. Thebone man played the pedal tonesin his part, to say the least, witha gutty tone, Which was quite arefreshing change from the sub­tle nuances of the LA Philhar·monic. Unfortunately, as anybrass man will tell you, the con·tinuous playing of lOUd pedaltones is very detrimental to theplaying of the upper register ofthe instrument. On the laterpassages of this piece the boneplayer clearly demonstrated thishazard of accomplished boneplaying. The trumpets added anumber of high, loudly playedinterjections to close this piecewith a burst of power.

Later in the evening the bandwas heard in Mr. Prado's owncomposition, "Mambo Jambo"featuring a brilliant pryotechnicdisplay of modern day, screechtrumpet playing. This display,in conjunction with the excite­ment created by the rhythm sec­tion, left the audience in a stateof exhaustion.

A not unshapely chanteusesent a shiver of animal emotionthrough one of this writer's com­panions. That her talent doesnot lie wholly in the vocal fieldbecame evident as she undu­lated through "P. S. - I LoyeYou" and a few unidentifiableSpanish ballads.

The cllmax was reached inthe orchestra's conception of theFrench ballad "Cherry Pink andApple Blossom White." Prado'sfourth trumpet man played

. with the aggressiveness that hasmade Prado's recording of thisnumber a best-seller.

The evening's performancewas marred only by the rudePasadena audience's insistancein ejaculating "uuh" at seeming­ly appropriate opportunities.

CIT BandEarlier in the evening this re­

viewer caught the performanceof the Caltech Band at the Red­lands basketball game. The re­lentless playing of Bruce Blackieon bass drum forced the bandto conform to an unflaggingmeter. During' the half-time ac­tivities Larry Whitlow washeard to dubious advantage onthe bass horn. The mellow tonesof the Harfophone (of whichthe only eXisting specimen westof the Mississippi is the covetedpossession of our own Jon Har­ford) were heard in frequentsolos throughout the game.

All the numbers were playedin a festive manner under thedirection of the band's associateconductor Bob (Hot Lips) Johns­tone.

ance. The acoustics of the halltended to mute the brilliance ofthe strings.

The major accomplishment ofthe evening Was the orchestra'spowerful exposition of RichardStrauss' "Death and Transfigura·tion." This very complex workwas played brilliantly by the or­chestra. They were coordinatedand precise from the soft open·ing passages in the woodwindsto the thunderous climaxes inthe brass. First trombone play­er, Robert Marsteller, and hissolid tone lead the lower brassesin a forceful display of the richqualities of their instruments.

Mr. Serkin closed the pro­gram with a performance' ofStrauss' "Burlesque" for Pianoand Orchestra. It was eVidentwhy this work is so seldomheard. Mr. Serkin threw him­self bodily into this number anddisplayed an ebullient naturewhich was not a little reminis­cent of a grinning TV star. Sucha demonstration did not increasemy respect for Mr. Serkin.

The Los Angeles PhilharmonicOrchestra's concert last Thurs­day in Philharmonic Auditoriumwas one of the most satisfyingthat the orchestra has given un­der Mr. Wallenstein's direction.Rudolf Serkin, the evening's so­loist, contributed enthusiasticperformances of his two selec­tions.

The opening work on the pro­gram was the first American per­formance of "Turandot: FourEpisodes for Orchestra" by theSwiss composer Gottfried vonEiinem. The work was raucous­ly violent in the true modernidiom. It was at times punctu­ated with blasts from the solotimpani and at other times sub­sided into delicate pianissimopassages. The orchestra and Mr.Wallenstein deserve a great dealof credit for their endeavor, al·though it did not make a last·ing impression.

"These tests show a veryhigh purity for the pool water,"stated Dr. McKee. "Our wateris better than the Public HealthService requires for drinkingwater." Dr. McKee attributedthis purity to the extraordinarycleaness of Caltech students.

The Sanitary Engineering sec­tion offers just one course at theundergraduate level, Introduc­tion to Sanitary Engineering,which all Civil Engineers take.There are at present four stu­dents doing graduate work inthis section.

Most civil engineers don'tconsider ging into sanitary en­gineering until they start inves­tigating jobs, said Dr. McKee.They then find that sanitary en­gineering jobs offer higher sal­aries, and this attracts theminto the field. About forty per­cent of the civil engineers grad­uating recently fro m Caltechhave gone into sanitary engi­neering work.

Dr. McKee emphasized the op­portunities in sanitary engineer­ing. In Los Angeles in the lasttwo years 140 million donal'Shas been voted for flood controland storm drainage and watersupplies. "This creates manywell paying jobs for sanitaryengineers," said Dr. McKee.

Sanitary Engineering doesimportant service at Tech

by Stu Richert

One phase of engineering which assumes great importancetoday, but which is not very well known, is the field of SanitaryEngineering. At Cal tech the Sanitary Engineering section isa "one man department." It is a section of the Civil Engineer­ing department, and consists of just one faculty member, Dr.J. E. McKee. Dr. McKee is a graduate of Carnegie Tech witha Doctor's degree from Harvard. During the war he servedas a Lieutenant Colonel in theEngineers Corps, after whichhe held a partnership in a Bos­ton consulting firm until hecame to Caltech in 1949.

The field of Sanitary Engineer­ing covers a wide range of sub­jects. Some of the principalproblems a sanitary engineerdeals with are: water supplyand treatment, sewerage andstorm drainage, sewer treat­ment, refuse and garbage dis­posal, and water pollution. Alsoincluded in the field are the en­gineering control of insects andvermin, and the problem of airpollution.

Although Sanitary Engineer­ing is traditionally classed un­der Civil Engineeri~g, it isclosely related to many otherfields. "Sanitary Engineeringdraws heavily on most of thesciences," emphasiZed Dr. Mc­Kee. Chemistry and biology areparticularly important in thefield, because it deals a greatdeal with chemical treatments.and with problems concerningbacterial pollution. As an ex­ample of the diversity of thesciences employed, a current re­search project on disinfection ofsewage has involved researchon the chemistry of halogens,ultrasonits, radiation, and ef­fects of heat. All experimentsare done in the section's lab ines west end of T2.

The Sanitary Engineering sec­tion has the responsibility forchecking the purity of the

CONVAIR

(SAN DIEGO)

by Dick Van Kirk ,There's an old story which tells ofa basketball player who

was so superstitious that he wouldn't change his socks if his teamwas on a winning streak. As the story goes, once his team won 25

straight games and the poor guy died of athlete's foot. The waythings are going now, it looks as if our players are going to havethe cleanest socks in town.

CONVAIR

Tile SpfJrts Corner

• • • *One person, however, who doesn't believe in superstition, is

Sonny Nelson. In fact Sonny says that if he begins to have a super·stititous feeling about some action or object he deliberately triesto prove that his feeling is unfounded by reversing his actions.Other members of the team are more superstitious. One personin particular, who shall remain anonymous, is extremely supersti­tious about certain things, among which are his way of dressingand the pre-game warmups he goes through. If you watch number29 closely tomorrow nIght, you will notice that he never zips up hiswarmup jacket, and that after every free throw attempt by a team­mate he claps hIs hands just three times. He also goes through acertain routine In the dressing room before the game, the primaryfeature of which Is that he always tries to be not the first, but thesecond player to get dressed for the' game.

* * * *If you think I'm going to launch into a wholesale blast against

superstitions in general, you're wrong. In fact I heartily agreewith player number 29, and the only question in my mind is, "Whenis he going to get a set of winning charms?"

• • • •For those of you that didn't read the fine print in Sunday's

newspapers, that was Bob Fendler of Pomona College who got athird place tie in the high jump in last week's Millrose Games inNew York City. For my money, this lad looks like a good bet tocop a first place medal in the conference meet this season unlessDick Haddon of Occidental really gets down to work to defendhis title.

The gent you see wearingthat broad grin above is noneother than Jim Workman, Jun­ior guard on the varsity cagesquad, Playing his second yearen the varsity, Jim has workedhis way up from the ranks intocontenUon for a starting berth.

Workman doesn't confine hisathletic abilities to the hard­wood, however, as he is a twoyear letterman in football andruns the distance races on thevarsity track team during thes'pring.

Jim comes from the nearbytown of Orange, California, andis serving as student body ath­letic manager.

Young scientistworks on new ways.to improve metals

Today scientists and engineers face one ofthe toughest barriers of all - the "metalbarrier." Modern technology has progressedso rapidly that today's metals can't meet thetremendous demands placed upon them. Forsuch fields as aviation, electronics, atomicenergy, present metals must be improved andnew kinds of materials must be developed.

One of the young men playing a role inthis new and important field is 30-year-oldDr. Roland P. Carreker, Jr.

Carreker's Work Interesting, Vital

As a research associate in the General Elec­tric Research Laboratory's Metals andCeramics facility, Carreker's chief concernis the improvement of metals through newprocessing techniques.

In his work, Dr. Carreker has dealt withsuch important metallurgical problems asmetal failure in high-speed turbine rotors,determining the strength of pure metalsfrom -425°F, the temperature of liquidhydrogen, to 2,800°F and economic studiesof new metallurgical processes.

Educational Relations, General ElectricCompany, Schenectady 5, N. Y.

25,000 College Graduates at General Electric

When Carreker came to General Electric in1947, he already knew the work he wantedto do. Like each of our 25,000 college­graduate employees, he is given a chance togrow and realize his full potential. For Gen­eral Electric has long helieved this: Whenfresh young minds are given freedom tomake progress, everybody benefits - the in­dividual, the company, and the country.

Nazarenes drop Beavers Iin second half point spree

by Dick Van Kirk

Pasadena College (Nazarene) took advantage of an ex­tremely cold Caltech basketball team to overcome an eighteenpoint deficit in the second half and grab a 53-42 win Tuesdayat the Scott Brown gymnasium.

The game also cost the Beavers the services of forward SonnyNelson for the rest of the season, as a first half tumble re-

lit'!

injured his weak right knee, forcing him to leave the game.Coach Carl Shy's Beavers started the game as if they meant

to make a runaway of the contest, building a 21 -5 first quarterlead, mostly on the strength ofPhil Conley's 14 points in thefirst period. At one stage inthe first half the Techmen helda 27-9 lead, but the Crusadersfrom across town began to whit­tle away at the Caltech lead.The Beavers left the floor athalftime enjoying a 30-11 lead.

The second half was an en­tirely disappointill::S one for theBeavers, as the Nazarenes stead­ily cut down the Caltech leau,while holding the Beavers toronly 12 points, on three fieldgoals and six free throws, in thehalf. Crusader center Jim Bondput Paz Naz ahead for the firsttime with two minutes left inthe game, and the Crusaderspulled away steadily to the endof the game.

Conley was the game's 21ighscorer with 25 points, whileBond scored 14 for PC (N).

Weekend social programfeatures Valentine Dances

(Continued from page 1)Robinson said that one reason

the traditions of the people areyielding to new materialisticideas is that the increasingmechanization of agriculture isgiving the Turks a new faith inthe pragmatic solution of prob·lems. Village youths must havesome military training. Whenthese youths return to their vil­lages with new fundamentalmechanical concepts and tell thevillagers, sometimes loudly andboisterously, hoW this or thatjob may be done more efficient·

ly, they frequently arouse re­sentment.

Sharp disagreement often re­SUlts, sometimes causing youngmen to break off from their clanand family. But though thereis some adverse reaction to it,mechanization and materialismare in Turkey to stay. Nineyears ago there were 1,700 trac­tors in Turkey; now there are40,000.

"The villagers are becomingmore and more independent.Friction between the village andthe national government is in­creasing," said Mr. Robinson.Unfortunately, he conclUded, noobvious solution appears to bein sight.
