Sixty-eighit Harvard undergradu-ates have sent petitions to SenatorsJohn F. Kennedy and Leverett Sal-tonstall supporting the loyalty oathprovision of the National Defense Ed-ucation Act. The two petitions, spon-sored by the Harvard ConservativeLeague, criticizes Halward's Presi-dellt's opposition to the oath.

MIT officials directly concernedwith the NDEA provisions expressedopposite sentiment. Dean T. P. Pitre,Director of Student Aid, said that al-though MIT had not needed to ap-ply for the student loan fund, he was"not happy with the loyalty oathprovision."

Dean Halrold L. Hazen, in chargeof the graduate fellowship program,said, "We have not made any deci-sion to let it (loyalty oath) stand inthe way of our applying or acceptingfellowships. I would call it a classrestriction-to students only--vhynot an oath for voting, or automobileregistration ?"

Dean Hazen stated that he felt theloyalty oath was a "hold-over fromsome of the hysteria in regalrd toCommunism. We at the Institute feelthis is not the way to defeat Com-mulnism."

Harvard officials have agreed to ac-cept any money that is offered as aloan to a student. But if the stu-

dent refuses to take the loyHarvard will award himship for the same amount.

According to a membeCrimson staff, the CoLeague, which distributedtions, is a "quite vocal gring a rightist viewpoint.

APO Gives $490 to Institute

To Be Used on Fall ProjectThe MIT Communuity will receive

for its direct use one-half of the $490profits netted by the Alpha Chi chap-ter of Alpha Phi Omega at its recentSpring Carnival. According to SamWilliamson, who was in charge of theorganization of the Carnival, all prof-its will go folr the MIT Communityand one big outside project.

Part of the money for MIT will beused for continuing the many campusservice projects sponsored by APO.Exactly what the remaining moneyfor MIT will be used for has not beendecided except that it will be employedon a campus project next fall.

After withdrawing $150 from theAPO service fund the chapter will fi-nance the renovation of a campsite atthe Cambridge Council's Boy ScoutCamp in Quinnepoxet, New HIamp-shire. The chapter will spend Friday,June 5, reconditioning the camp andinspecting canoes.

The Spring Carnival was held thisyear in place of the Ugliest Man onCampus contest because it was feltthat the Carnival would help to co-ordinate all phases of Institute life inone big event.

One of APO's MIT community serv-ices, the undergraduate telephone di-rectory, will be greatly enlarged nextfall to include all undergraduates.(Commuters were not included thisyear.) The APO information service,which was tried on an experimentalbasis last fall, will also be expanded inthe fall.

Dear Editor:Since so many have aired their judgments about Dr.

Schwarz, I acknowledge that I was responsible for his talk.I personally contacted Dr. Schwarz and made all arrange-ments.

My motives were to bring a recognized authority on cam-pus to discuss Communism and its implications concerningour futures. I have known about Dr. Schwarz for over ayear. 1 have read his books and heard him speak in churchesof several denominations. I had letters of recommendationfrom clergy, Congressmen and military authorities includingthe head of the National Air War College and ROTCofficials.

Undeniably Dr. Schwarz is emotional and all too fre-quently he is misinterpreted as directing force against theCommunists and not Communism. However, if one doesnot care for his emotion he might follow his suggestion:"All the Communists plan to do and how they plan to doit is down in writing. Anyone can learn about Commun-ism by simply studying their writings in a local library."Several examples: Twilight of Vo/aid Capitalism byWilliam Foster; How to be a Good Commienist andNationalism an2d In2ternationalism by Lui Shao Chi; LeftWig Commuizism An Infantile Disorder by Lenin.Christians, especially, ought to read The Age of Longing byArthur Koestler. I think it is as rash to judge Communismwithout studying its textbooks as it is to judge Christianitywithout studying the Bible.

Furthermore, those interested in hearing what Dr.Schwarz actually did say can listen to available taperecordings.

Pmntila

After a successful campaign to obtain more funds theRepertory Boston Co. opened again with a new cast, a newdirector and a new play: "Puntila" by Bertold Brecht.

"Puntila" is satirical, licencious, funny and different.The satire lays entirely in the way of living of a rich land-lord, Puntila, who's a tyrant when he's sober, but a lovingman when he lets himself bathe in dozens of bottles ofaquavit. He has a daughter who must marry a dandydiplomat, when Puntila is sober, and the family chauffeur,when Puntila is drunk. The license of the play lies mostlyin the acts and words of the hero (when he's drunk) andI'd like to give you some examples but the editor won't letme. The play is funny and different because the sets aresimple but humorous, because the direction is simple butsmartly balanced, because Ray Reinhardt, as Puntila, isparticularly good, taking possession of the stage and keep-ing it for himself (when he's drunk), sweeping to an at-mosphere of terror and discomfort for his family (whenhe's sober).

John Lasell, as the chauffeur, is the only human being inthe play, the voice of honesty, rightness and commonsense. That's vwhy is a chauffeur. His performance isvigorous, witty, complete, and the scene in the bathroom(yes) as well as the scene on the evening of the engage-

ment are the two highlights of the play and of the Wilburproduction.

It would be too long to name all the cast involved inthis enjoyable performance, but it is the first time in thisseason that we have seen the entire cast act on a ,very highlevel, with spotless performances and peace of mind for thespectator, who never fears a second rate actor coming tomumble his lines.

"Puntila" has a little of everything and you can look atit as a social protest, a social satire, a farce, a comedy, apastoral tale, or a slightly immoral (on the safe side) pieceof entertainment.

Recommend it? Certainly. Whether you're drunk orsober, go see it and take a date too. You may enjoy watch-ing her reactions as well as the play.

The Weakness of NSA-- IThis is the flist of two ediiorials discussing both the role

of the National Student Association and student govern°emnt's responsibility on extra-academic affairs. l>t the next

issue will also appear "USNSA - A Fraud, o;' What itClaims to be?", an evalhatioz of the NSA by George A.Henry, '59, currently a natioizal officer of the Association.Ed.

For eleven years MIT has been a member of the UnitedStates National Student Association. For eleven years anoverwhelming majority of undergraduates on this campushave been ignorant of its worth to them, in fact of its veryexistence.

This is not the fault of the MIT undergraduates. It isdue to the combined inadequacy of both the NSA organiza-tion and our student government.

Before explaining the reasons for these statements, let uspresent a few facts about the National Student Association.The Association consists of over 400 member colleges anduniversities; its organization involves a National ExecutiveCouncil with student officers (who generally take time offfrom school to assume these duties), regional officers whocoordinate activities in thie geographical regions of NSA,and representatives from each school, known as coor-dinators.

NSA is supposedly a service organization. It has an ex-tensive communications system which brings to the coor-dinator national issues which are of interest to the collegestudent. It sponsors conferences for student leaders topromote inter course between colleges. Yearly it holds aNational Congress at which it passes many resolutions (lastyear almost 100) to exert pressure on both national andinternational issues which pertain to students.

In this issue we will deal only with the purely local aspectof NSA. In the past we believe that it has been of little orno value to the MIT campus, outside of some good experi-ence for the coordinator and a few other interested people- certainly not justification for the $900 which we, asstudents, yearly pay for its so-called services.

We believe that NSA should serve as a framework forstudent communication and action. In the past it has toooften worked as a separate entity, existing only as a work-ing ground for a few elite. It has sponsored conferences,too often attended only by NSA personnel. In our region,which may be worse than most, due to the large numberof small schools and lack of large ones (Harvard resignedfromn the NSA last year), this problem may well be morecritical than in many others. These "social gatherings"sap both the NSA coordinator's time and Institute Com-mittee's money. Our regional program should omit all ofthese unnecessary affairs and substitute conferences specifi-cally for student editors, student body presidents or otherswho would profit by such discussion. In this capacity as asuperstructure for college intercourse it would serve a vitaland important function; as it is now, the conference (andthere are many) are too often of, by, and for NSA, andtherefore of no worth whatsoever to the representativeschools who pay for them.

Of more direct value to MIT is the NSA function ofcoordination of student opinion. Several weeks ago an NSAconference on this campus expressed adverse opinion on theLoyalty Oath provision in the National Defense EducationAct, a subject deserving of student comment. Shortlythereafter, a similar resolution was brought before Insti-tute Committee (not, incidentally, by the NSA coordi-nator). The resolution was "tabled indefinitely" after abrief worthless, and uninterested discussion. This was thesamne evening during which Inscomm talked for over anhour on its own membership.

If Institute Committee feels that topics such as the NDEAare beyond their scope, it is implicitly voting against con-tinued membership in the NSA. The bringing of such is-sues to the undergraduates' attention through student gov-ernment should be the NSA's most important function.There are many topics upon which students should speak;concerning issues on which pressure from the academiccommunity could be a real and vital influence. This typeof consideration, it seems, evokes only a display of lack ofinterest. To continue this policy is to neglect a majorresponsibility of student government, i.e. student expres-sion.

If the NSA coordinator, elected by Institute Committee,fails to be a source of timely and important national issuesand lives only in his own world of NSA, he should bereplaced. He is doing nothing for the school - only forhimself.

If, on the other hand, student government refuses toconsider worthwhile topics by which it could serve as anintelligent and respected pressure group, MIT should voteto dissolve every tie that now exists with the National Stu-dent Association.

It is about time, after these eleven years, that we evaluateNSA, and by doing so examine our owrn representative body.Perhaps the "weakness" of NSA lies equally distributedbetween it and our own Institute Committee.

The Tech

Competing for the first time in theEastern Intercollegiate Track Cham-pionships, the varsity track teamplaced fifth in the "A" division,ahead of Providence and Northeast-ern. Six MIT cindermen scored in themeet, including a record-tieing per-formance by Joe Davis '61 in the highjump.

Joe Davis '61 placed second in thehigh jump with a leap of 6' 1" to

tie the existing meet record. Davisalso placed second in the 120-yardhigh hurdles behind New Englandchampion Carl Freyer with a :15.1clocking to pace the MIT scorers.

Don Morrison '61 and Art Warner'60 were the other Beaver medalists.Morrison copped third in the broadjump with a 2()' 6" effort while plac-ing fifth in the 1(!0-yard d(lash with:10.3. Warner tied for third spot inthe high julmp and finished sixth inthe finals of the high hurdles.

Bill Nicholson '60, fourth in thehammer throxv, Jim Long '60, fifthin both the javelin and discus throws,and Nate Lisko- '60, third in the polevault, completed the Cardinal andGray scoring.

Although they did not score GeorgeWithbroe '61 and Brian White '61turned in creditable performances.Withbroe sprinted the 440 in :51.0but was edged out for a qualifyingplace in the trials. White was sixthin the mile run in 4:34.2.

Also competing was Bob Barrett'60, pole -vault Bob Slusser '60, 220-yard dash; and Herb Grieves '61 andPaul Robertson '61, two-mile run.

Baseball Team, Ends

Hatch Brown of Boston Universityedged Bill Widnall of MIT to cap-ture first place in the New EnglandMonotype Sailing Championships heldthis past week-end on the CharlesRiver. Brown and Widnall led a fieldof seven that had qualified for lastSunday's finals.

Saturday's eliminations were heldin Tech dinghies while the finals sawall teams sailing Finns. The weatherwas not ideal as the meet was mark-ed by one squall and varying windconditions throughout the day.

Of the top seven finalists, threewere from Boston University andthree were from MIT, while the sev-enth entry came from Brown. DennisPosey's third place finish and BU'sLathrop's fourth place evened theteam score, and it looked as if theEngineers might win the team title.However, Cook of Boston Universitybested Kirk of MIT for fifth placeand this cinched the victory for theTerriers.

Brown and Widnall, by virtue oftheir one-two finish, have probably

qualified for the final eliminations tobe held in August to decide theAmerican entries to the Pan Ameri-can games to be held this sumnier inChicago.

The standings and point totals forthe meet are: Hatch Brown, BU, 47,Bill Widnall, MIT, 43, Dennis Posey,MIT, 36, George Lathrop, BU, 32,Dick Cook, BU, 31, George Kirk,MIT, 27, Ted Turner, Brown, 24.

Eight bases on balls by Techmoundsmen along with a viciouseleven hit attack enabled Wesleyanto rack up four runs in the fourthinning, two in both the seventh andfourth, and one in each of the firstthree frames.

Tech scorecd its two runs in thefourth frame on a powerful home runsmash by Al Bea(rd '59 with JohnVleek '61 on base. Warren Goodnow'59 opened on the mound for the En-gineers and hurled until the fifthflrame when he was relieved by Beard,who in turn was relieved by JonnBlinn '61 in the seventh. None of thethree Beaver pitchers wsas able tothwart the determined Wesleyansluggers.

This year's team, coached by Robo-ert Whitelaw,, had a final record offive victories, eleven losses, and onetie.
