program. It was suggested that anastronomy field trip might bepossible (come look into mytelescope...) in addition to theusual geology and marine biologyjaunts. A sub-committee com­posed of Karen Maples, JimMorgan and Lee Silver will makethe necessary arrangements forthese. There will be two eveningsat camp when slides or movies canbe given. There will probably notbe more than one seminar onFriday evenit;tg before the TalentShow.

There will be, of course,impromptu talks (read: recruitingsessions) on such things asathletics, Caltech Y, Glee Club,etc. Ian Hunter has also agreed togive a talk, due to populardemand. Something like BobColeman's talk was also suggestedat the meeting of the NewStudent Orientation Committee.A talk on "Life and Involvementat Caltech" will almost assuredlybe scheduled, with unpredictableresults.

Now, each house gets to pickpeople to represent that house'sgood intentions to the frosh,although enough people willprobably ask for dishwashing jobsto cause snarls in the intendedimagery. The lists will be in soon,then comes the scramble. Watchthis spot for developments.

One advantage of this is thatresidence credit for the B.S. andadvanced degrees may be earnedconcurrently. Admission to pro­grams terminating in the jointaward of the B.S. and advanceddegree will be by special applica­tions to the Dean of GraduateStudies.

This would eliminate problemslike the controversy over thenumber of units required tograduate in the various options.Now, for example, it only takes483 units to be a Math major, butabout 516 for anything else.

The plan is to com­plete the selection of upperclasscounselors by May 30. Attemptswill be made to include suchpeople as ASCIT president, vicepresident and other supposednotables.

Not so far away is the nextyear's New Student Orientation,with the customary indoctrinationof the new frosh. (Remember?)As some of you know already, theselections are underway for theprivileged (?) few who are tobecome the advisors for thisbombshell.

As far as is known, NewStudent Orientation will takeplace on September 26-28, atCamp Fox, Catalina Island. Devi­ations from tradition will be few.There will be 40 discussiongroups, each with one upperclassstudent counselor and one facul­ty, staff, or alumnus counselor.There will be the usual lengthyperorations by speakers aboutsuch things as the Honor System,Life at Caltech, and otherpropaganda. God help the frosh.

There will be also anothefTalent Show, to give the peoplecommitted to Catalina a chance todemonstrate the array of talentwith which they are blessed. It ison the agenda for that Fridayevening (it runs from Thursday toSunday). Liz McLeod suggested atthe meeting of the committee in

Gosh, Jiin, I'm sorry. If thepaper didn't have that stupidTuesday night deadline, perhaps Iwouldn't write such staleopinions.

to be better able to decide onreinstatement and to makerecommendatiQns to the rein­stated students.

We believe, also, that UASHshould hold meetings during themiddle of the term whenevernecessary. If a student wants todrop a class in the middle of theterm, but this would put himbelow thirty-six units, he mustwait until the beginning of thenext term to find out if hispetition is approved. First termthis year, one student who hopesto go to medical school foundhimself in the above situation.He decided to take a one termleave of absence rather than risknot having his petition approvedand receiving an F in the coursehe wished to drop. Instead ofgraduating this term, he willgraduate next year.

Besides shortchanging studentswith regard to time, we believethat UASH has shortchangedstudents with its policy on latedrops. When drop day wasmoved to one week before finals,the faculty insisted, as a con­dition for this move, that thedrop day be strictly enforced.UASH has taken the easy pathby routinely denying late droprequests. It is most certainly thestudent's responsibility to makesure his drop card gets in bydrop day. Yet we feel that itridicules the concept of a gradeto .give a student an F in acourse " he may never haveattended simply because he failedto get a card in on time. UASHand the Academic Policies Com­mittee must find an alternativeto the current system such as asystem of fines for delinquentdrops.

We wish to offer one finalsuggestion with regard to thefunctions of UASH. Many stu­dents who come before thecommittee are desperately inneed of advice. UASH isuniquely in the position to

One of the most powerful yetleast understood faculty com­mittees is the UndergraduateAcademic Standards and HonorsCommittee. UASH is the com­mittee which acts On studentpetitions for reinstatement, forlate drops and adds, and forexcess units or underloads.UASH is required to meet onlyon registration day each term toact on petitions and near the endof third term to determine therecipients of several awards.Usually the committee meets forabout nine hours at the begin­ning of a term to consider anaverage of over forty petitions.Only on rare occasions has thecommittee met in the middle ornear the end of a term toconsider petitions. As studentrepresentatives on UASH, we feelthat, by not spending more timeconsidering student petitions, thecommittee has shortchangedmany petitioners.

Typically, fifteen students perterm come before UASH forreinstatement. Each of thesestudents will have his petitionread by the committee and willthen be interviewed for ten tofifteen minutes. Usually this isthe only information on whichthe committe bases its decision.Advisors, although required toindicate their approval or disap­proval of their students' peti­tions, rarely give UASH anysubstantial input, perhaps be­cause many of them fail toadequately get to know theiradvisees. Other members of thecommunity may submit letters toUASH regarding a student'spetition, but few people realizethat they may do so. Thus astudent's fate may be determinedby how well he can write andspeak before a committee. Eventhe committee sometimes realizeshow ridiculous this is. We believethat UASH should spend moretime talking with petitioners andsoliciting additional inputs so as

rivalry causes both countries tospend a large fraction of theirresources on the military. Intenseanimosity between Russia andChina has led many to speculateupon the possibility of a Sino­Soviet war. Such a conflictwould represent a tremendouswaste of human lives and re­sources and would clearly beagainst the interests of peopleeverywhere. American contri­butions to the internationalclimate could do much toencourage or discourage such awar.

Nixon's persual of closerrelations with both fo theCommunist giants runs contraryto powerful domestic interests. s

Although Nixon is right inopposing these interests, thefulfillment of many of his goalscould be delayed or even pre­vented altogether by his removalfrom office.

Policy By the PresidentMany feel that Nixon's foreign

policy successes are due in factto the work of Henry Kissinger.Such a view is mistaken. It is thePresident who must make thepolitical and economic trade-offsnecessary to lubricate the wheelsof international relations.

Recently for example diplo­matic relations with Egypt wererestored after a break of sevenyears. Relations were resumedpartly because the United Stateswas willing to demonstrate witha grant of $250 million andother actions that in the future itcould bring many benefits to theEgyption government. PersuadingEgypt to set one foot in ourcamp was made possible not somuch by a shrewd Secretary ofState as by the President whomade the judgement that Egyp­tian cooperation was well worth$250 million to American stra­tegic interests and was prepared,in order to obtain it, to forfeit

Every act of cooperation be­tween nations may be directlytranslated at some time in thefuture into a savings of humanlives and a reduction of humanmisery.

Nixon's Foreign PolicyIt is against such a backdrop

that it should be noted that chiefamong the goals of PresidentNixon has been the establishmentof a so-called "structure of worldpeace.,,3

Even his detractors concedethat Mr. Nixon seems to have aflair for foreign policy. Geniusmight be a better word.4 Su­premely competent in commu­nicating American intentionsabroad and in securing thecooperation of foreign govern­ments, Nixon's continuance inoffice is favored by such diverseforeign leaders as Chou En Lai,Brezhnev, and President Sadat ofEgypt, all of whom feel that heis a man with whom they caneffectively work.

Cooperation or Antagonism?The keystone of Nixon's

foreign policy, behind his drivefor cooperation with China anddetente with the Soviet Union, isthe realization that much of theactivity of various parts of theworld can be related to therelations of rivalry between thethree "giants" of the earth,America, the Soviet Union, andChina. Cooperation with Russiaand China for example wasinstrumental in obtaining a settle­ment in South-East Asia con­sidered favorable to Americaninterests. Soviet cooperationcould do much to help defusethe potentially explosive situ­ation in the Mideast. Rivalrybetween the major powers, ,onthe other hand, results in a hostof ill effects.

The Critical Mouth

Much is being said and writtenabout the forthcoming resig­nation/impeachment of PresidentRichard Nixon. Relatively unap­preciated however is the effectthat Mr. Nixon's removal fromoffice may have on the world atlarge. Possible disruptions in thepursuit of certain foreign policyobjectives could, for a long timeto come, profoundly affect thelives of a great many peoplethroughout the globe.

Current American overtures tothe Soviet Union and thePeople's Republic of China, aswell as Mr. Nixon's central rolein the development of Americanforeign policy, must be viewed inthe context of the major geo­political events that may takeplace in the remainder of thiscentury.

The Coming CrunchA massive and unprecedented

world wide protein shortage,resulting in the loss of millionsof lives may well be thedominant historical event mostof us today live to see. Resultingeconomic and political uncer­tainty could plunge mankind intothe worst fix it has ever known,making the First and SecondWorld Wars by comparison seemmere aberrations. 1 Men couldbecome victims of events asincreasing international tensionand hostility between the indus­trial and third world nationsleads to an escalating series ofthermonuclear wars, a "confla­gration that will destroy every­thing ... this civilization has pro­duced."2

Any reduction of internationaltensions, any drawing together ofpowerful nations, may help toease the passage of mankindthrough the inevitable"CRUNCH" in the years ahead.

Donner Speaks .

Homeros At Beckmanby Marc Donner

Never let it be said that thereis any great degree of harmonyamong the editors and staph ofthe Californicator Tech. Those(characterization omitted) editorsare (expletive deleted) enough tohold a (expletive deleted) (char­acterization deleted) Big T edi­torial, staff meeting in the mainworkroom of the Tech onTuesday night just a few hoursbefore the deadline for articleswhen other "edit,ors" and staphwant to come in and write theirarticles. Not only do those(characterization deleted) holdthis meeting, but they telleveryone who comes in that theycan't stay because of the (exple­tive deleted) meeting. I say tothem openly: How the Hell arewe supposed to write ourdamned articles when deniedaccess to our information, paperand typewriters?

Rumor has it that SeniorDitch Day is today (Friday) orwas yesterday (Thursday) (thisarticle is being written onWednesday). Anyway if Friday isDitch Day come around to PageHouse and watch the demolitionof Scheffer's Stack. This(characterization omitted) seniorthinks he has designed and builtthe unit unopenable brute forcestack. To prove this he has beenannouncing that his stack in­cludes (1) 1000 p'ounds ofconcrete, (2) lots of ball bear­ings, (3) lots of old grindingwheels (to thwart any drillingefforts), (4) several pieces ofboiler plate, (5) a roll offiberglass, (6) lots of 8x8 lumberand much more. On ditch day itwill be interesting to see justhow much of this is bs and howquickly we get into his stack.Tink tink.

lockheed Chairman Speaks Out

This isyourkey to unprecedented calculatingcapaci~ Only Hewlett-Packard offers it

It lets you "speak" to your calculator with total consistency, becauseit lets you load data into a 4-Register Stack. This means: (1) you alwaysenter 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, -i-).

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 through­out 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.

ASCIT Of Mullany:Elections ApprovedAnd People Thanked

by Jim MullanyThe BOD met in public

session last Tuesday with Beatty,Shiller, McLeod, Anderson, Mal­lonee, Teich, Manis, and Pietraszattending. A motion to amendthe minutes of the last meetingpased quickly. The board thenacted on the following matters:

Last week's election resultswere validated, and nominationswere opened for last Tuesday'selection, . much to Mallonee'srelief, as of the previous Thurs­day and were closed (retroac­tively in both cases) as of thenight before the elections. Shillermade a point of being opposedto both actions. The next seriesof run-offs will take place onMay 28.

McLeod officially thankedDirector for Social Activities PaulManis and Secretary DennisMallonee, the former for hisexcellent supervision of lastSunday's bicycle-beer race, andthe latter for his no-nonsensemanaging of last Tuesday's elec­tions.

The BOD will presently forma search committee to nominatefaculty members for thethe soon­to-be-vacated posts of AssociateDean and Coordinator (of Win­nett Center).

The Coffeehouse managers gottheir $400 bonus.

The TQFG hopes to havetheir report out by the middle offinals week.

The next BOD meeting wasset for last night at 7:30 p.m.

And although he praised thewide-bodied subsonic jets' eco­nomics in the face of fuelshortages, he ignored the econo­mic problems facing supersonicaircraft. He speculated that theAmerican SST would have beenmore economical than either ofits European counterparts,though.

Free.Flowing PhilosophyHaughton's comments on sub­

jects other I than air transpor­tation left no doubt that aperson in his position has to be apolitician as much as a manager.He frequen tly praised the engi­neering graduates from Tech,over 200 of whom work forLockheed, and did more hand­shaking than any gubernatorial orcongressional candidate who hasvisited the campus in recentyears.

Who else but an incumbentpolitician would say "There'sbeen a lot said about the qualityof life today, and ah'm all forit"? Who else bu t the chairmanof the board of Lockheed couldget away with saying it?

that wide-bodied jets, similar tothe Tri-Star, DC-lO, and 747,will take over the major airroutes: "People are gonna findout about wide bodies andthey're gonna do it [fly them] ."

While lamenting the govern­ment's decision to cancel thesupersonic transport (SST) pro­gram, stating that it was embar­rassing that the Russians andFrench were doing something theAmericans weren't, he did notmention the SST in his forecastfor the Eighties. Haughton spe­culated that the US would,however, produce a hypersonic

4) Professor Riker of PoliticalScience, California Institute of Tech­nology.

5) The power of such interestsmay be demonstrated by the supportof a majority of the American senatefor the Jackson amendment, a billwhich blocks the expansion of tradewith the Soviet Union and delays theprogress of Soviet-American cooper­ation. The shortsigh ted Jacksonamendment conditions the granting ofMost Favored Nation trading status tothe Soviet Union upon internalreform in the Soviet domestic struc­ture, principally the granting ofunlimited emmigration rights forSoviet Jews. In actuality, Sovietreform would come about morequickly with negotiations than withthe ultimatums posed by such astupid and dangerous bill.

Editors note: Mr. Hantover wouldbe happy to answer any let­ters sent to him, care of TheTech, on any of the somewhatcontroversial assumptions and conclu­sions he makes!l

Footnotes:1) Anyone who can read a graph

of the earth's popUlation vs. historicaltime can see that the pattern whichhas prevailed for centuries, that of asimple logarithmic expansion, mustchange due to the forces of natureinto an s-curve. This change, due tocome in this century, accompanied bydeath and misery on a massive scale,arises because the earth's resources, itscapacity to sustais life, is limited andbecause nature is not about to let anyof her natural laws be violated.Indeed such a historical period,labeled "The Cr"!lnch" has beenpredicted by many , and mong thepessimists, the notion is popular thatall mankind will return to a new darkage. The pessimists are wrong how­ever. Mankind and his civilization willsurvive the coming crunCh, and evenany world war which might accom­pany it.

"D'ja Ever Sit In Coach?"Haughton predicts that,

through the 1980's, air travel willcontinue to be the preferredmode of travel between citiesover 300 miles apart, and that nofundamentally new aircraft willbe introduced. He also predicts

perspective of history shows thatthis instance of human tragedy isnot unique. Both world wars inthis century resulted in greaterloss. Last year alone, in 1973,half a million starved to death ina handful of African countries.Such occurrences shall continue.To limit their scope and wonder,we must profit from our ex­perience, and come to grips withthe coming of the greatestchallenge mankind has everfaced.

Compared to the spectacle ofthe coming "CRUNCH", theethical improprieties of Mr. Nix·on in the White House seemrelatively unimportant. At anyrate, the harmful effects of Mr.Nixon's conduct upon the Ameri­can people's respect and trust fortheir government and its insti­tutions are now over. Thequestion remaining is what to doabout the damage Mr. Nixon'sremoval from office will haveupon the fulfillment of thosegoals, those foreign policyachievements which he has re­cognized as Vital, and for whichhe has had the understanding andabove all the "political will"necessary to give them priorityabove all else. To neglect thisquestion for the sake of concen­trating attention upon the prob­lems associated with the misuseof political power is to be eitherhypocritical, or blind to whatmust be the central issue of ourtime. To wit, how do we preventthe coming "CRUNCH" and itsassociated tensions from resultingin thermonuclear war betweenthe rich industrial nations andthe third world, clamoring for itsshare of the Earth's resources?The world situation grows moreunstable with each passing year.How can we insure the stabletransition of the nations of thisplanet through the "CRUNCH"and safely into the next century?

I'd Support AI CaponeNoam Chomsky, distinguished

critic of the left has said, "Byany rat ion a 1 s tan­dards ... Richard Nixon is oneof the major criminals of theTwentieth Century." Be this asit may, respect and considerationfor the lives of millions ofpeople, some as yet unborn, leadme to a conclusion. I'd supportAI Capone for President if I felthe were the earth's most capablehandler of international affairs.Wouldn't you?

Irate BoonierRides Again

Today (May IS) I finallyreceived The Tech v73 No. 24,dated April 19,1974. I am notwriting to tell you to get your(expletive deleted) circulationmanager in gear, though thatcould certainly use some doing. Iam writing because there remainsbetween us the little matter ofyour stealing and printing myprivate correspondence.

Do I take the line on page 1,just above Dr. LaBelle's photo, torefer to this matter? If so, I find itinsufficiently specific. In eitherevent, as the authorship of theoriginal letter cannot be acomplete secret (at Tech nothingis) and as it was published without

Liberation Movement. That parti­cular issue of your paper couldhave been so much more .exciting.There are so many creative andunusual women on this campus.

For example, you might havefeatured a Dabney House "freak",one of Ms. McLeod's dogs, Dr.Huttenback, Phyllis Anwyl, theonly female geology major, theonly female physics major, ormyself, the only truly contro­versial figure on this dull campus.

In closing, I take this oppor­tunity to announce the formationof the Avenge Culbertson Sub­committee of the OCRC. All ofyou who remember Culbertsonrealize what a great void nowexists on the corner of Wilson &California. To demonstrate ourstrength, the Subcommittee isasking all who sympathize withthis view to wear black armbandsto the opening of the new MuddLaboratory.

There are now two OCRCarticles sitting in a back corner ofthe California Tech offices. Inaddition to these, there are twoarticles from our rivals, the SOCA.Are you trying to suppresspolitical controversy on campus?Some very fine, though provokingpoints were raised in thesearticles. Consider these issues:AFROTC, Ditch Day, the NewGeophysics Building, Watergate,and the People's Wall. But werethese printed? No!

Instead of these relevant,controversial items, Mr. Malloneechooses to prin t pages and pagesof useless information on some ofthe more nonspecial women onthis campus. Half of them weremere secretaries with glorifiedtitles. Glowing portraits of theseordinary, boring women is not atall beneficial to the Women's

worlds? Is it afraid to discusspolitical issues of the day? IsWomen's Lib as controversial as itgets? Is it embarrassed becauseoutsiders write more informative,more interesting, and funnierarticles than Morg Blorg and itsown staff is capable of conceiv­ing? Does it refuse to publishnews in this weekly magazine­disguised.as-a-newspaper? Is ittrying to cut costs by becoming soboring and trite that no one willread it?

Mr. Mallonee and Co. is goingto have to realize that, try as theymgiht, their rag (a term normallyapplied only to real newspapers) isnever going to win the CNPAAward for General Excellence incollege journalism, so they mightas well print our articles.

Back-Water Mailfrom OCRC

I emphatically protest yourpublication ("Forum", The Cali­fornia Tech v75 No. 22, 5 April1974) of a private letter from meto the a.C.R.C. The most casualperusal of that letter shouldmake clear to the veriest moronthat it was intended not to bepublished; indeed, the sentimentsexpressed in it are inconsistentwith its publication. Would youhave the world think me ahypocrite?

I insist on an immediatepublic apology, to Ms. McLeodand to me. I cannot permit thisblot upon the by .Requestescutcheon; that name is syno­nymous with candor and dis­cretion wherever letters are read.

Moreover, I demand an expla­nation of how your organizationcame by this document.

... this is very funny."A Registered Nurse must have

at least a twelth grade education,followed by three years oftraining in nursing. A LicensedVocational Nurse (which will bestaffing the Health Center atnight under current plans) needsonly a tenth grade education,followed by one year of nursingtraining. A Licensed PracticalNurse has six months of trainingunder an RN. A "caretaker" isany random troll, trained in firstaid at the most, who would livein the Health Center. This personcould presumably perform anyfirst aid which you or a friendcould have performed withoutcrossing the street to the HealthCenter, or call a competentperson on the phone, which youcould have done faster thanwalking there.

It would be nice to see morecommunication between the stu­dent body and the Health Centerbrass. The students are concernedabout what might happen to theHealth Center, and we wouldhave thought that the peoplerunning the Health Center caredabout what the students thought.

by E. Squirrel MoleBack in February, when the

!controversy first arose aboutreducing the hours of operationof the Health Center, a poll ofthe undergraduate and graduatestudents at Cal tech was made byBlair Folsom, graduate repre­sentative to the Health Commit­tee. Following the outcry ofpublic opinion against Jhe reduc­tion of Health Center services, itwas announced that the cutswould not take place, everythingwas really alright, and Techersshould go back to their trollingand not worry about it, which ismore or less what they did.

In recent weeks it has becomeclear that we were too quick tobe pacified, as news of continuedplans for weekend closing of theHealth Center, and night opera­tion only by a Licensed Voca­tional Nurse (LVN), becomesknown to us. Since the matter isapparently still under discussion,we are publishing the results of
