Afsociation President approaching,cldidates Michael Padlipsky '60, and
1ristopher Sprague '60 are devel-Dping elaborate campaign platforms
gather student interest for a largevqte on February 24. Both are harp-ink on the decreasing powers and au-thdority of Inscomm in order to arousethe students to see the great dangertf their interests if the Administra-tion progresses further in its con-trot of student life.
.Pa(llipsky is advocating a greater
p~rticipation by students in theirgoveIIrnment in order to create a morehateral, dynamic, and fighting govern-ment, whereas Sprague maintainstlhat existing Insconem and Adminis-traition legislation is entirely ade-quate for hard bargaining for proj-
,eels such as the p)roposed Student
Union. Padlipsky has said, "I feel.that unless we go forlward ;e willbe pushed backward." He cites thenew parietal and cooking rules asexamples of weakening student gov-ernment. Sprague maintains that"Insconim should get on the ball be-cause the machinery is already inexistence." This machinery consistsm-ainly of agreements between Ins-coniem and the Administration fornon-interference in each other's af-fairs. He says that, "Inscomm shouldconcern itself morte with 'forgottenareas' such as parking and the Stu-dent Union and thus strengthenboth Inscomi and the living groups.A lot can be gained by bargaining,not legislation." Both plan to makespeeches to the living groups.
on February 4, the model UN beganwith diplomatic eaucusses by blocs.A minor international incident oc-curred as the Arab nations ejectedthe Israeli delegation which tried tolisten in or, the Arab caucus.
The MIT students, who represent-ed Iraq, wvere Jain DeSola, chairman,UAP Jerry Stephenson, George Hen-ry, Klaus Berkner, and Mumtaz D'A1-daftery, a native h'aqui. Official ob-servers were Stephen Gill and LindaGreiner.
First official meeting was the Se-curity Council, which debated a pro-posed resolution on UN control ofBerlin. At a supper following thismeeting, the delegates -,ere officiallywelcomed by The Hon. Sidney Smith,president of the University of To-ronto and past president of the UNAssociation in Canada, who spoke onthe role of the UN in Canada's for-eign policy.
The General Assembly convenedThursday morning to consider a pro-posed resolution on withdrawal offoreign troops from Asian nations.T h e delegates proposed severalamendments and some 20 nations pre-sented their' arguments. All debatewas carried out in French and Eng-lish with instantaneous translationby headphones.
After lunch, delegates journeyed toMcGill University, whose Director ofIslamic Studies, Dr. Wilfred C. Smithmoderated a panel discussion. Mr.Sadaat Hasan, Midwest Director ofthe Arab Inforimation Center and Mr.Moshe Erell, First Secretary to theIsrael Embassy in Montreal discuss-ed the Arab-Israeli dispute.
Justice John E. Read, forimer judgeof the International Court of Justice,presided over the mock court, whichsettled the dispute between the U.S.and Canada over the Columbia Riverin favor of Canada.
\Vith the aid of Dr. Hasan, theArab delegation caucussed Thursdaynight to plan strategy for a proposedresolution on the Middle East to comebefore the General Assembly the nextday,.
Ger-man re-unification was thetopic of a panel discussion Fridaymorning aniong official personagesof France, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R.France advocated a cominmon sensepoint of view and the United Statesand Canada took opposite sides onthe question.

Once again the MIT student bodyhas a chance to see their famed protessors not with their pants down,but with their pants high on thethigh. Yes, the annual Basketbrawlis again being held with the featureattraction the legs of professors. Itis at this game that we begin to un-derstandl fully the meaning of thatword wmhich our' professors have beenusing in lectures to describe amatheinaticia n's attempt to rigorous-ly described some intuitively obviousphysical tpheniomenon: hairy.
A high le-vel decision wi6th the ad-ministr~ation issued the dictum thatthe style of play in the basketbrawNlgame is to change. Unidentifiedsources leaked the unverified r-eportof an administ:'ation decision! "Theforthcoming hasketbrawl1 game willbe played with gentleimanly conductfollowing NCAA basketball rules."The administration felt that some-how MIIT's public relations iiiightsomehow be harmed with a repeat oflast year's romani circus starring the

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 195i ,
a pleasure, a refreshment, an enjoyable experience to watch actors, and I sa):actors, like Judge Springer, Mary Weed and Edward Finnegan. It is a pit'
that some actors think that by labelling themselves as "method" performersshould allow them to put out on the stage all the psychiatric, psychoma.tic (oiwhatever name you want), aspects of their every day personality.
Let us hope that the Charles Playhouse will come back to the good wasthey started, by putting more interesting, more convincing, more offering plays.:There is no doubt as for the talent of Michael Murray, but this talent has a hard .time to show up when the play i3 not a challenge to a director, as "Shadow :
of a Gunman." A good policy for the group to adopt would be to forget abou! a "one-star" company, whose talents begin to be very doubtful, while others .are given less important roles. There's nothing to be paniced about, mistakesof the sort being very common in more experienced theatres and we are surethe next show will erase the bad impression given by the actual performances'of "Shadow of a Gunman" and the related reading.

page should be included with each copy of THIS IS MIT.Students should enter with a real understanding of whatis involved. They must be told that in the early years theywill be faced with a lot of hard seemingly unrewardingwork. They must also be told that throughout the fouryears they will have many poor instructors-men who donot know how to conduct a class efficiently, nor how toorganize a course. As it stands now the beautiful bookletTHIS IS MIT is a beautiful lie. Both the failings andassets of MIT should be frankly explained to studentsbefore they enter. They must be prepared to work for thelong-term goal and must realize that the teaching, thework, and the results may be discouraging at times . . .much of the time, in fact.
If a truer and less glamorous picture of undergraduatelife were presented, we might get a few less applicationsfrom straight A students who want a happy college lifeor who want, most of all, to keep their straight A's. Butwe might also get a few more applications from seriousmen who realize better the value of the objectives and whoare willing to face what is really involved."

letter
To the Editor:In your October 3, 1958 issue there appeared an editorial
bemoaning the lack of "issues" and the existence of"apathy", both of these in the MIT student body. Yoursolutions were twofold: misrepresentation of facts to stirup interest. I quote, "The first plan is usually called badjournalism, unethical, and so on. The second, at least inthe present environment, is often disappointingly ineffec-tual." On the front page of the same issue I was misquoted,quoted incompletely, or quoted out of context some halfa dozen times. I immediately wrote a letter to the Editorin rebuttal, That letter was not printed. The letter I amwriting now will not, I hope, meet with a similar fate, fortwo reasons. First, I am sure that it is your wish to makerestitution for your previous breach of ethics. Second, andmore important, I believe that the open letter I am enclos-ing for publication will furnish you with ample issues uponwhich to take stands, and should consequently prove amore desirable course of action (in light of your avowedintentions) than further misquoting. I look forward toseeing both this letter and the enclosed open letter in yournext editorial column.

reviews
This issue marks the birth of a new volume of The Tech,number 79. We of the newspaper look forward to the yetunwritten contents of this volume; the events of the nexttwelve months which it is our privilege to observe andreport in the coming pages.
This page will be devoted to an objective critical analysisof the vast workings of MIT. We will try to express whatis our opinion, and our opinion only, on the most importantissues which arise.
This volume introduces a new position on the newspaper,the News-Features Editor. The Tech's responsibility lies inthree major areas: current news, editorial comment, and apresentation of some of the picture of MIT outside thefront page, for MIT is not only a great educational anddevelopment institution, but also a great research center.It is the last area for which the new Board member isresponsible.
Since an issue is rarely black or white alone, there willundoubtedly be many questions and comments raised bythe opinions expressed here. Every stand we take will affectsome people, those most concerned with its subject, muchmore closely than others; for there is an "expert" in everyphase of Institute life. We urge you who do not agree, oryou who are in a position to amplify, to open your viewsto us and to the undergraduate body through letters. Wewill print as much as space permits; we -will not cut withoutthe author's permission.
We sincerely hope that this volume of the newspaperwill fulfill its purpose on this campus: objective reporting,
pertinent criticism, and an opening up of some of the vast-ness of Institute life to every undergraduate.
from fa the pastThe /ese momenzts of waiting for The ma.lmalz to deposil
grade reports at the door is over. The lines have been suc-cessfurlly encoun.ered and the second term7 of the 1958-1959,academic year has ar;rived Some of the "Tech is Hell"spirit, da;;zped by) vacation, is retftrning. Undouibtedly mnanysiude./s are just plainz disillusioned, with only four daysof the term completed. They are, quite oftenr justified intheir ti~rill;.rionzmenzl; many freshmen and Sophomores aremeeti.lg uAith inadequate inshcto rs, wchich makes them
'onder why they are paying $1300 a year to go to classes(u'hich in maly cases are ozvercrouded). Perhaps there are]vniors aozd Seniors w'ho share these -feeli. gs. To thesepeople lee address the follou'ing comieno.s, taken f'oon aletter zerillen sererwl years ago by a Senior at MIT, Classof '56. This mnan took the time to set oil paper the reasonsfor the pride he took in the school. WVe feel his pride iwasjustified muany times or'er aid is equally valid i}? 1959.
"The first opinions about MIT are formed from readingthe Undergraduate Catalogue THIS IS MIT which is sentto all prospective students. This booklet contains a greatdeal of information, yet is likely to give the student whohas never studied here the impression that if he is admittedhe will come in contact with men who are both greatteachers and renowned in their technical profession, andthat he will immediately be able to study in the laboratorieswhose pictures fill the book. In some respects the Instituteis actually far worse than the booklet indicates. But inother respects it is far better. These other respects are dra-matically pointed out in XIvory Tower," where a seniorreflects on what he has accomplished. The most importantand lasting effect of the Institute lies not in the foraml andacademic knowledge and training acquired. Of course thispart of our education is significant; it prepares us for ourfuture career and studies and gives us the tools with whichto -work and create and leave our mark on the world. Themost important part of our education lies elsewhere; it isintangible . , . and often we will not become aware of ituntil much latter in life. It consists of two parts; we shallcall them method and character . . . By method we mean. . . the systematic, logical disciplined approach to problemsof matter and mind cannot fail to leave a deep and lastingmark on the student. These may sound like vague generali-zations, but they are very real. When a man has finisheda course, even a poorly taught course, he has developedsomething in himself.
Improvement is a slow process, but several departmentshave made a great deal of progress in recent years. Butthere is something which might be done immediately tolessen the disappointment with the Institute felt by manyof the first and second year men. A copy of your editorial
It happens every day. A young :nan goes off to college leavinghis home-town sweetheart with vows of eternal love, and thenhe finds that he has outgrown her. What, in such cases, is th.ehonorable thing to do?
Well sir, you can do what Rock Sigafoos did.When Rock left Cut and Shoot, Pa., he said to his sweetheart,
a simple country lass namned Tess d'Urhervilles, "My dlear,though I aim far away in college, I will love you always. I willnever look at another girl. If I do, mla iny evehalls parch andwither, may my viscera writhe like adders, mayv the inoths getmy new tweed jacket !"
Then he clutched Tess to his I)osom iand phmrted a final kissupon her fragrant young skull aind went away, meaning -ithall his heart to be faithful.

11I�j 6�Shadow of a Guazman
After "The Iceman Cometh" and "Hotel Paradiso" theCharles Playhouse was on its way for a very successfulseason and we couldn't hope for better. Unfortunately thecurrent show, "Shadow of a Gunman" by Sean O'Casey,is a deception and very close to a disaster. The eveningstarts with a reading adapted from "Mirror in My House",and extends for an appreciable amount of time, at first en-joyable, then bearable, but at last quite boring.
Stanley Young impresses us as being an extremely ex-perienced announcer in the best tradition of the B.B.C., andhis narration of "The Bold Fenian Men" is the only ap-parent reason for listening to the reading. After a shortintermission (which reminds us to ask the Charles Play-house to heat the lobby), the first act of "Shadow of aGunman" begins and begins rather well too. Amusing,fast and well acted, the first act is the best moment of theevening and a delight, as far as acting is concerned, witha beautiful performance by Mary Weed (Minnie Powell).Judge Springer is also very convincing. As for John Heffer-nan, what we considered to be magnificent acting in "Viewfrom the Bridge" or "No Exit" turns out to be pure man-nerism or personal nervous twitches. As much as we disliketo do it, we must confess that we were fooled by his previ-ous appearances and that much of his acting has nothingto do with the theatre but rather with a psychoanalyst.
The second act is a repetition of the ideas exposed in thefirst and the action drags along, moving slowly to an ob-vious conclusion; and it seems that the hand of MichaelMurray, the director, lost much of its energy, or maybe itwas done on purpose in order to extend the performanceto a full time regular show. In any case it was a deception,after the excellent first act, to endure long minutes of empti-ness in the second act. A special mention to Edward Fin-negan in one of the funniest characters we have seen in aplay: Mr. Gallogher, who is certainly a very good part tobe handled by such an accomplished actor as Edward Fin-negan, and he should be proud of the way it came out.Olympia Dukakis, once more, gives an overplayed perfor-mance, almost embarrassing at times, but well matched toJohn Heffernan's neurosis. After enduring these two it is
But on the very first day of college le met ' coed nanred Fata5!organa, a girl of such sophistiCe:tiOi, such poise, such sam'oirf(dire as Rock had llever beheld. She spoke knowingly of FranzKafka, she hulmnl1led MNIozart, she smoked NMarlboros, the ciga-
rette with better "makin'.s". Now, Rock didn't know FranzKafka from Pinocchio, or Nlozart from Janmes K. Polk, hutAlarll)oros lie knew full well. He knew that anyone who smokedMarlhoros was nzodern and :advanced and as studded withbr'iins as a h'lmIi \with cloves. (Good sense tells you that you can'tbeat Alarlbor{'s new improved filter, 'tned you never could benitMIarll)oro's fine flavor. This Rock knew.
S'o all d'ty le followed Fat :around canipus and listened toher talk about Franz Kafka, alnid then in the evening le wentb'tek to the dormnitorv and found this letter from his honie-townn
sweetheart Tess:
Dear Rock-,Us kids hat/ (a keen time !/esterian. II'e wivet down to the
pond and caught sonte frogs. I caulght the most of aonybody,.
Then we hitched rides oni trucks and did lots of wilsy sth#like that. Well, I tiuslt close itn m becautse I ,ot to whitewashthe fi'nre.

Well sir, IBoek thought alb(,ut Tess and then h(? thought aboutF 'ata and theen a great sadness fell upon him. Suddenly he knew
he had outgrown young, innocent Tess; his heart now belongedto smart, sophisticated Fata.
Rock, being above tall things honorable, returned forthwithto his home town and walked ul) to Tess and looked her in the
eve lnad slid manfully, "I do not love you any more. I lovea girl nanmed Fata Morgana. You enn hit me in the stomach with
l'l your might if you like.""That's okay, hey," said Tess amiably. "I don't lovc you
neither. I found a new boy.""What is his name?" asked Rock."Franz Kafka," stid Tess."A splendid fellow," said Rock and shook Tess's hand and
they h'tve remained good friends to this day. In fact, Rock andEtata often double-date with Franz and Tess and have heapsof fun. Fr-anz can do the Hula Hoop 6,000 times.

Another proglram of an expelrimen-tal nature designed to encoulragestudies above and beyond the normalwill be instituted this next term. Ap-proximately 60 faculty membelrs rep-resenting a wide range of intelrestshave expressed a desire to help in-terested fleshmen do olriginal wolrIbeyond that required in their regu-lar courses. The activities in this pro-gram range flrom compluter prloglraml-ming to archaelogy, and in soniecases students will be able to parti-cipatle in the research activities ofsome of the laboratories.
According to Professor Peter Ea-gleson, "The real value of such aprogram lies in its spontaneity." Itis hoped that this program willachieve individual contact betweenfaculty and students in the students'early years here at the Institute.Such contact has been a major prob-lem at MIT till now and it is hopedthat the new program will alleviatethe situation. Only exceptional stu-dents wvith a sincere desire to per-form outside work are asked to par-',icipate in the program.

I often remember old parties I have gone to, thepeople present, and their foibles. For example, thereis the one Heather Goquick!y gave, some years ago,in her tiny Manhattan apartment.
A line formed in front of her place at six o'clock; itwas almost seven before I stood, cold can of Schaeferbeer in hand, in a crowded corner of the apartment.I watched Heather flying smoothly over the up-turned heads of her adoring claque (a stagehand-friend had put up one of those wire rigs one associateswith ornate television productions of Peter Pan),dispensing Schaefer-largesse and pointing out chairsto the most elderly of her guests.
A creep shouted up at Heather. His head was huge-big, and he was wearing stilts; without them, onemight have thought him a Dwarf Person. Wordscame out of his mouth like rnachine-gun bullets:"Rat-a-tat-tat; tat-tat: and tat," he said, handingHeather her three-stringed dulcimer, which sheplayed very well. Strumming it, she began to singthe happy air so popular to-day: What d'ya hear in the ibest of circles? "Schaefer all .::.:. ..arouLnd!" Then she landed ibeside me and wistfully i-::.drank my beer. "How tres, i :.tr~s/" she sighed in herhappy-sad voice.
"Me or the Schaefer?"
"Both of you, darling. You, remind me of my brotherEd; the Schaefer, that's easy: it's got a smooth roundflavor; never sharp, never fiat." A tiger cub jumpedinto Heather's arms. She handed him to me. "Youkeep him Ed, or darling, or whoever you are; I thinkI'm off for Tangier now." Taking only a can ofSchaefer, she was gone.
I've heard from her just once: a post card scribbledin Swahili. Of course, the tiger grew too big, and Ihad to let him go. I've seen him since, though; he'sfound a proper home with a traveling circus. I hopeHeather has too.
Fabulous steps iiito Lthe future, such as this,call be made only by men with fabulousimaginations. A lot of such men work forGeneral Motors and its divisions. There's
room for a lot more-maybe you.
In addition to research in the automotive
and appliance fields. General Motors and its
divisions are collncernled with solar ellergy,astronautics, astrodynamics, electronics, alnd
many fields of space engineering. If these
areas of scientific study challenge yourimagilnation, perhaps GM has a place for you
at one of its platits in 71 cities.
Here is a real opportunity to put your
imagination to work onl everything from tiny
transistors to dynamic diesels.

Although MIT's athletic squadswere virtually all idle during the pastfew weeks, the varsity ski team en-gaged in competition for the firsttime this year. The Engineer skiersplaced sixth out of ten entries inthe William A. Henry Memorial raceat Cranmore Mountain January 24thin their opening effort of the season.On February 1st, a much strongerBeaver squad finished second behindBrown 'University in the Asa Os-
born Trophy Race at Suicide Six inWoodstock, Vermont.
At Cranmore, Peter Goldstern '62was tops of the Engineer entrantsas he was third in the overall stand-ings in the giant slalom. Team cap-tain EKnut Hauge '59 was fifth, whileother MIT skiers Nvere Jens Jozgen-sen '59 and George Emo '62. TheBeavers were undermanned as therace was held the week-end beforefinal exams.
One week later, at Woodstock, theresults were much improved as theTechmen posted their best effort intwo years over the 48-gate slalomcoulrse. Despite icy slopes, freshmanRoberto Peccei's sixth place finishled the Engineers. Also placing wereteammates Pete Stadler '59, HarryPeterson '59 and Jorgensen.
This Saturday the Beaver skierstravel to Mount Belknap in Laconia,New Hampshire to compete in theTufts Trophy Giant Slalom Race.

did not, however, specialize in oneproject alone but with a generousportion of skill and ingenuity workedon several ideas throughout his fouryears of high school.
As a freshman and sophomore inschool he was able to set up his ownwind-tunnel- cleverly constructedfrom furnace pipe, disregarded air-plane props, and a washing machinemotor. \With this he experimentedwith wing shapes of various lengthand width to amass a collection ofdata concerning the lift and drag ofthe wings. From his observations hecould predict preferred wing struc-tures for aircraft of different sizeand missions. The last two yearshave seen Jackson in a study ofshock waves in air and pressure dis-tributions on an airfoil (water-ta-ble experiments). As a point of in-terest most of Jackson's equipmentwas inexpensive and he was able tomake use of advice given to him bythe Aeronautical Engineering De-partmelnt of Georgia Tech for thecomplex second part of his work.
For his efforts Jackson was given-iin addition to an earlier trip wvithBenrey to W\right Patterson AirForce Base, Dayton, Ohio-a trip toAtlanta this Thanksgiving where hewas presented with his award at a

Fol example, Ronald Benrey '62,coming from the Bronx, New York,attained second prize in the entireFair and first prize in the space cate-gory of the Air Force Awards Pro-gram with his "home made" spacesatellite. His satellite (named "Ar-gus I") is a plexiglas sphere 54" indiameter containing a variety of in-struments to test conditions in space.The 30-lb. Argus would be able tomeasure and transmit: temperaturesat two points on its surface, inter-nal temperatures, number of strikesby micrometeorites, ultraviolet radi-ation and direction of solar light.Such data could be relayed via bat-tery power to a total of three receiv-ers whenever keyed to do so by theground transmitter.

of Ronald's achievement which, inci-dentally, cost him only $200 appear-ed in the October, 1958, edition ofPopular Electronics.
As Ronald is pleased with the re-suits of the time and energy invest-ment he put into the Argus, he in-tends to continue in the field of Phys-ics in his studies here. In additionhe'd like to maintain the active hobbyof writing for magazines and manu-als. His next nationally-published ar-ticle, "Experimenter's Control Box,"will be featured in the March issueof Electronics Illustrated.
The other winner, Leeland B. Jack-son, is a course XIII marn from At-lanta, Georgia, who received the AirForce Award for Air Power. Jackson
