SUNDAY EVENING FELLOWSHIPA newly formed Christian fellow
ship group for college students primarily from Caltech and PCC isnow meeting Sunday evenings at7 p.m. at Knox United Presbyterian Church, 225 South HillAve., one block north of Caltech.
SU~FIN' USAThere will be a short organiza

All bums who want to affiliatewith the Drama Club but don't wantto work-just talk drama and so on-come to the Lloyd ConferenceRoom, Wed., Oct. 2.8, at 7 :30 p.m.We'll organize a few pretzel sessions.
The Visiting immediate-familymembers will then be given anopportunity to rest their wearyeardrums during a guided tourof the campus, which is to lastmost of the afternoon. At 3:30they can rest their weary metatarsals at a Caltech Service Leaguetea, but their day has just begun.They next meet their prodigalprodigies, and the fight begins,whether to eat out or not.Saga Wins Again
It is better than even odds thatthe young, vigorous frosh inuredto the same routine their parentshave just completed, will be ableto prevail upon their elders theinnate merits of avoiding Sagafood. After dinner the frosh cangive their side of the picture,with a delivery tailored to theindividual parent. How much thiswill differ from the management'sviewpoint might be significant.
The student may encounterproblems in his first year herethat he has not met before. Namely, he may be doing poorly. The

the blood is not circulated properly. Thus scientists cannot considerthe capillaries as mere irrigationchannels and hence of no majorimportance.
Since the blood is a complexmixture of everything from simple water molecules to very largeproteins, and because the smallness of the capillaries creates newand unsolved problems in fluidmechanics, Zweifach and his associates have not tackled a trivialproblem. Yet, in spite of its complexity, knoWledge of the workings of blood in the capillaries isvery important from a medicalviewpoint.Spaghetti, Anyone?
The microcirculation maintainsthe internal environment aroundthe tissues with almost 60,000miles of capillaries and canchange the environment aroundthe tissues to match the specificneeds of the tissues. To quoteZweifach, "the system is so complex that if I could not see it, Iwould not believe that it couldwork." Then, to prevent his audience from doubting, he showedfilms of various important microscopic parts of the circulatorysystem doing their jobs.
Just as the smog starts to clearaway from the mountains, duringthe autumn of every year, theparents of the frosh are invitedto a program at Caltech to familiarize them with conditions here.~It's similar to Frosh Camp, withlots of speeches and introductionsto the guiding lights of the campus, but it has a slightly differentpurpose.-The parent of the typical Cal
tech frosh, although he may beinclined to think differently, hasnot taken the college boards withhis son and is not at presentsweating through weekly mathtests. The Parents' Day programthis Saturday will try to presentto the parents the difficulties theirprogeny are enduring.Stupid Frosh
Okay, so the random froshgraduated high school with honors, but he is average here. Thestudent may have accepted thisby midterms, but in order thathis parents might, they are invited to listen to a series ofspeeches, take a tour of the campus, and observe their offspringin action.
This year there are about 240parents expected, representing"back home" to about 120 freshmen. Foster Strong, Dean ofFreshmen, says that a big jumpcan be observed this year in thenumber of parents emanatingfrom the Northwest. The numberof those visiting from the otherends of the world such as Georgiaand Massachusetts stays fairlyconstant, he adds.Schedule 01 Events
The parents will have a fairlyrugged schedule in the morning,including speeches by Dean Jones,Director of Admissions; Dr. Mil·ler, Assistant Director of Admis·sions; Dr. Huttenback, Master ofStudent Houses; Dean Eaton,Dean of Students; and DeanStrong, Dean of Freshmen. Dur·ing lunch there is an address byPresident Lee DuBridge.

BY HANK SUZUKAWABeckman Auditorium drew a
fair crowd of physicians, students,and curious members of the public Monday night as Dr. BenjaminZweifach lectured on the "Flowof Blood in the Microcirculation,"the second in the Caltech LectureSeries. The lecturer explained,through words, slides,and motionpictures, the nature of the circulatory system, especially in thecapillary regions, and the methods by which the circulatory system fulfills its mission.
Zweifach is professor of pathology at New York UniversityMedical Center and is a visitingassociate in Caltech's Engineering Department. He is a leader inthe investigation of the microcirculation of blood and is working with engineers in the studyof the fluid mechanics of blood.Blood Is Important!
Blood has many duties: it mustprovide cells with oxygen andfood, carry away their wastes,and perform a myriad of othertasks that simple one-celled animals can perform through directcontact with their water environment. All these lifegiving properties are of no avail, however, if

VisitsWaserReturning to the faculty this
summer after his one-year leaveof absence is Dr. Jurg Waser, professor of chemistry. Waser, a recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, visited Europe to comparehow chemistry is taught in different countries. He traveledthrough Italy, Germany, Austria,and finally arrived at Zurich,Switzerland, where he had received his BS.
Basically, Waser found collegelevel instruction consisted of thelecture method, but more lectureswere delivered, and they containedmore material than those in U.S.This procedure puts less emphasison texts, but requires more information memorized. The lectures are supplemented by an extensive laboratory program. Compared with Caltech's labs, Euro·

able assemblies sponsored byASCIT-Alumni are now scheduledfor next month, while others arealready being planned for the remainder of first term. ASCITAlumni has already sponsoredthe Owen-Carstens talk on civilrights which drew a great dealof student enthusiasm.
The assemblies are held in Dabney lounge on Wednesdays of certain weeks at 11 a.m. The purposeof the assemblies is to providean interesting program of speakers dealing with politics, arts,current events, and other nonscientific topics.J<'rosh Grades
According to Bruce Hudson,chairman of the AseIT Assemblies Committee, the next assembly will be held in 201 Bridge onNovember 4, with Dean FosterStrong speaking about the resultsof the meeting of the faculty over
the possibility of eliminatingfreshman grades.
The following week, on November 11, there will be an extremelyentertaining assembly with DonnaBurrow singing off-color Elizabethan folk songs. Miss Burrowwas recommended for the ASCIT·Alumni program by that oldfriend of the cultured Techman,Jim Davis.Take in Small Doses
Assemblies which are now inthe drawing-board stage includea talk from the professors whowere involved in highly-controversial research at Harvard withLSD, a non-addictive drug of thehallucinogen class. It will temporarily produce powerful psychological effects when taken insmall doses.
On October 28, at the usualASCIT-Alumni time and place,there is a possibility of a talk byPierre Salinger, the Democraticcandidate for the U.S. Senate fromCalifornia. If this assembly doesmaterialize, it will be sponsoredby the Young Citizens for Johnson group. Unfortunately, due tothe fact that neither the YMCAnor ASCIT-Alumni can sponsorjust one assembly of a politicalnature (both sides must be represented), there is little chancethat either the Y or ASCIT-Alum·ni will have a political speakerthis term.

Editorials
Frosh GradesThe faculty will meet Friday to discuss a proposal, recom
mended to it by the temporary Committee on the FreshmanYear and the Faculty Board, to eliminate all grades forfreshmen starting immediately. A week from then the facultywill probably approve the committee's proposal. The changewill affect the present frosh class and the frosh to come inmany ways. Whether the effect will be beneficial, superficial,or harmful can, of course, only be evaluated after the fact.
The major objective is to create a real intellectual and scholarly climate, as opposed to the narrow grade-getting atmospherethat has been seen by some. Thus by el iminating grades, thefrosh will not be under the constant pressure of making goodgr6des on all tests and quizzes. The idea is to give the froshthe opportunity to enrich and enhance his supposedly naturalenthusiasm. The hope is that the good students can excel andenjoy intellectual pursuits,
At first glance the idea of rei ieving the pressure of gradegetting seems reasonable. The ideal istic thought that mostpeople admitted to Tech can work and learn a subject forthe abstract principle of education is momentarily reassuring.But I have not found this to be the case.
It seems reasonable that without the incentive many peoplewill slough off in courses they do not like. This probably willbe felt most in chem and the humanities. If a student goesinto a course knowing he need do only enough work to pass,why take it at all?
It has been recognized by the faculty committee that somepeople will be directly hurt. These are the ones who sloughoff too much, hence do not learn the essential material, andthose who will be kept in the Institute for an extra year, because they could not find how tough grades could get.
The faculty committee has undoubtedly considered all theevidence and indications that they had available and haveweighed the advantages and disadvantages of the system withall sincerity. It is unfortunate that the faculty did not solicitopinions from upperclassmen who have been through the gauntlet. The student opinion now is far from universal. Of course,this opinion would be only one part in a final decision. Thefaculty has the ultimate authority and responsibility.

Despite the failure to give Williams' "characters" free rein, thefilm's director does deserve special credit for his delicate treatment of the poet's ever-presentsymbolism.Where's Liz?
The success of The Night of theIguana in spite of the flaw mentioned above, is made possible bya brilliant performance by Richard Burton. The role of the Rev.Shannon is fraught with temptations to the actor subject to visions of grandeur and Christidentification. Mr. Burton, howe vel", preserves the essentialblemish of imperfection even inhis most triumphant moments.Even more than Brando and Newman before him, he seems tosense and capture the very soulof the Williams "hero."

By Don GreenThe Night of the Iguana
Once again, the cinema hassought to capture the stage mastery of Tennessee Williams. And,as before in A Streetcar NamedDesire and Sweet Bird of Youth,something vital has been lost inthe translation. The most distinctive gift of Tennessee Williamsis his mastery of the characterwho is larger than life, one whotranscends the limitations of theperson and carries the weight ofhumanity upon his shoulders. Andhere is where the Hollywood productions fail. Concerned primarilywith characters "realistic" to theviewing public, the screen writerhas overlooked the vitality imparted by Williams-the·artist.
The substance of TennesseeWilliams' lesson in The Night ofthe Iguana is the eventual reconciliation of violence and depravitythrough man's quiet endurance.The world's most vicious sin,viewed by the Rev. T. LawrenceShannon, is "man's inhumanityto God." Man's actions are motivated by his own fears; each ispursued by his personal "bluedevil."
The path to salvation is not theact of repentance, but rather adark, personal journey where theold poet's cry becomes the prayerof mankind:

Barry knew his secret name was"Bud." In moments of admiration they were heard to sigh,"That Bud, that's Bear."
Lyndon Bear soon found outabout Barry and decided that heneeded to show the bears that hewas the bear to man the load.He appealed to the grizzly bearsby offering them free fish. Hecalled it a war on poverty; thesmall business bears called it agiveaway. He then appealed tothe black bears by doing awaywith social discrimination led bythe polar bears. He called it civil rights. The polar bears called it many things, all unfit forour ears. He had an Ad bearwrite him a catchy slogan aboutLet US continue. The bear'sname was Lib.
Now most of the ordinarybears weren't really interested inthe issues, though they didn'twant a mispitched pine cone tobring about the end of the forestnor did they want Lyndon eatingall that honey. Lyndon did promise to check into things right after the election but then so didBarry.
In the same forest lived somefierce lions known far and wideas the literary lions. They weredivided into two groups, thosefor Lyndon who wrote the newspaper and those for Barry whowrote pamphlets.

The Polar Bear extremists sentall the books around for all theother bears to read so that everybody muttered darkly about whatwas going on in the SchwarzWald and how it was going to thedogs so that pretty soon the Russian bears could take over itsomething weren't done.

The folowing column, entitled"How Square the Bear Or ACracker Look At Lyndon," is reprinted from the Georgia TechTechnique, "the South's liveliestnewspaper." Use its brilliant analysis of the political scene tohelp you in choosing your candidate in November.
Once upon a time there werefour bears: Barry, Lyndon, Hubert and Bill. They all lived together in a great big forest on thebanks of the Potomac known asthe Schwarz Wald and were considered to be the leaders of theland with "Big Lyndon" incharge.
Now every four years therewas a big meeting of all the bearsin the land to decide whether tokeep Lyndon Bear or whetherhe needed to be replaced. Someof the bears thought he had beentoo nice to the black bears andothers thought he had been keeping more than his share of thehoney. In short, they nominatedBaby Barry as his opponent inthe coming contests.
Baby Barry had a lot going forhim, he liked the little businessman bears and tried to see to itthat the polar bears didn't loseany of their rights. He advocated more pine cones for defense against the fierce RussianBears and less fish for the lazygrizzly bears who refused tolearn how to fish for themselves.Barry was a good speaker andmanaged to convince a lot of hisgroup that he knew the barefacts of what we going on upthere in the Schwarz Waldo Hegathered the support of a groupof Welsh Bears known in theforest as Birch bears and othersmaller groups that felt something had to be done.

SELL ADSOnce again this year the Cali·
fornia Tech is offering Techmenthe golden opportunity to helpthe Tech by helping themselves.
The Tech is offering a 15 percent commission on all ads soldby Techmen. This commissionis paid not just on the first insertion, but every time the ad isrun this school year.
Tech ads cost $1.40 per columninch, and thus the commissionamounts to $0.21 for every column inch of advertising sold..The commission on a Falstaffad, for example, would be $12.60for each insertion.
Selling ads is not as difficult asis may sound. Many Pasadenaretailers can be talked into advertising with. relatively little effort. Local stores such as OakKnoll C[eaners, Pie 'n Burger,etc. are especially "vulnerable"to an ad pitch for the Tech, andthe commission is pretty goodrecompense for the time spent(little t advertisers are also goodprospects).

Health PlanNecessary?Editors:
I wish further clarification ofthe system· of student health insurance adopted recently by theInstitute and discussed in recentletters to the Tech. .
In the explanatory note issuedlast week by Dr. DuBridge, nomention was made of the veryimportant principles underlyinga compulsory health program. Thestatement was in fact made withthe tacit assumption that a com'pulsory program is indeed theInstitute's responsibility to carryout. I do not see why this is so.
Most of us can appreciate theInstitute's concern for students'academic welfare, but by nostretch of the imagination can Irationalize its concern for students' physical welfare in theform of a compulsory health insurance program. The matter ofpersonal health insurance is strictly relegated to individual consideration and initiative, and isnot under any circumstances theresponsibility of an academic institution.
The problems of duplicative insurance programs and annuallyincreasing expenses (no one seemsto know what the terminal costof the program will be) are simply the result of requiring thedeferment of individual judgmentto the deliberation of committees.Perhaps someone can justify forme the undertaking of this presumptuous task.

Tech fullback Dinius is surrounded by several Pomona players after pickingup yardage against the Sagehens last week at the Rose Bowl. Caltec:h lost thegame 26-0, despite the fact that the Beavers outgained Pomona on the ground.
This is the year of the forwardpass, and Pomona's Prairie Chickens spread their wings and tookthe air route to victory as theydefeated CIT's Beavers 26 to 0Saturday night at the Rose Bowl.The statistics tell the story: CIToutgained Pomona 129 yards to122 on the ground, but the Pigeonsflew for 276 yards and eight firstdowns to Tech's 13 yards and nofirst downs.
There are never many brightspots in a losing ball game, butthe indefatigable Techmen managed to come up with a few. Despite weak offensive line play (nodoubt due to the fact that theParrots outweighed the Techmenby some 20 pounds per man onthe line), the CIT backs managedto lose only 8 yards while Pomona lost 44. Brennan, Mowery,and Frazzini contributed goodruns when they found holes.
The CIT defensive line wasoutstanding. Dinius, playing defensive tackle for the first timein his college career, was in onthe tackle as often as not andpersonally stalled a Goldfinch

On Saturday afternoon, SantaBarbara invaded C.altech, in whatwas expected to be a very 'ruggedgame. To complicate matters, several key players for Caltech weremissing; the few available substitutes were effectively utilized inthe defensive positions (Hornswoggler rides again).
Many of Tech's fears were fulfilled in the first half. UCSB tookcontrol of the game, maintainingit throughout the first half. Caltech could not construct a goodoffensive; meanwhile, Santa Barbara's excellent long passes fromthe center of the field badlypressed the Tech defense. Fortunately for the ,Beavers, UeSBmanaged to score but one goalby the end of the first half.Santa Barbara Retreats
Santa Barbara found its matChin the second half. Tech began avigorous passing game which rantheir opponents into the ground.The first line mounted repeatedattacks on the Santa Barbaragoal, scoring 3 goals in about 5minutes. The patchwork defenseironed out its difficulties andsquelched Santa Barbara's occasional threats. By the time thesecond half had ended, Tech outscored their opponents by thelarge margin of 5 to O. Only twomen contributed directly to thescoring - Frishuk knocked in 2goals, while Mahn scored 3.
This game indicated that Caltech's soccer team is rapidly solving its problems and developinginto a powerful tea m.

Obviously outclassed, the Caltech varsity water polo team losttwo games away from home atthe end of last week, losing toEI Camino, 15 to 6, before bowingto Cal Poly (Pomona), 13 to 3.
Against, EI Camino last Wednesday, Tech was shut out bytheir opponent's first team duringthe first and third quarters, scoring all 6 goals against the secondstring. Two days later, they invaded Cal Poly in a rare nightcontest. Playing under the lightspresented problems to the Beavers, unaccustomed to night conditions. Superior swimming andalert playing were the key factors in Cal Poly's victory; however, Tech was not as bad as thescore seems to indicate.
The leading scorers in the twogames were Nielson with 5 goalsand Maynard with 2; the othergoals were scored by Touton andWalter, who tossed in one goalapiece.

BY HORNSWOGGLERCaltech's soccer team continued
its winning streak by defeatingboth Riverside and Santa Barbara this week. Riverside wasswept aside 4 to 1; later in theweek Santa Barbara found itselfon the short end of a 5 to 1 score.
In an afternoon game againstthe Riverside JV and varsityteams, Caltech displayed the threequalities which it has displayedin all of its games thus far - lackof conditioning, superb individualball control, and intermittentlygood teamwork. Caltech, however,had complete control of the gamefrom the very beginning to thefinal whistle. Triskuk and Mortellscored a goal apiece in the firsthalf to put Tech ahead. Towardthe end of the half, Riversidescored one goal on a fast breakdown the middle of the field.
The second half produced twogoals, one by Cline, the other byMahn. UCR attempted to scoreagain by breaking through themiddle, but all threats were easily contained by Caltech's rapidlyimproving defense.
The junior varsity game, whichwas played earlier in the day,resulted in another Tech win, asthe JV's blanked Riverside by ascore of 1 to O.

Cavalier FeaturesTech Football Team
Although the sports page ofthe California Tech is concernedmainly with the results of variousathletic activities, occasionally asports article in a periodical ornewspaper worthy of the attention of the Caltech communitycomes to our attention. We feelthat the article by Joseph N. Bellon Caltech: Phi Beta Football(Cavalier, October, 1964) falls intothat category.
This article is concerned withthe many aspects of Caltech athletics in general, football in partiCUlar, that are relatively unknown to those not in close contact with the Caltech campus. Aconsiderable amount of space isdevoted to stories emphasizing afew main points.
Caltech Football Factory?The article attempts to explain
the difference between Caltechfootball and the type seen bymillions of sports enthusiasts ontelevision each weekend. Bellseems to get to the heart of theproblems so evident at Caltech.For example, he states a typicalcase of a student not out for avarsity sport for which he isqualified:
sports. Sometimes academics isused as an excuse for more exoticreasons for not turning out forintercollegiate sports; such things,for example, as the disinclinationto get beat with deadly consistency; or a greater athletic loyaltyto a dormitory team."Good Magazine
The overall tone of the articleis of particular interest. Mr. Ballpays Caltech several complimentsduring the course of his article,while trying to keep his comments humorous. His attitude ofthe Caltech athletic program ingeneral is best summarized in hisfinal paragraph. When Mr. Musselman, the athletic director, wasquestioned about the lack of attendance at Caltech footballgames, he replied as follows: "...But one thing is sure: Our athletes don't turn out for a teambecause they want to show off totheir girls or get a write-up inthe paper. They come out justbecause they want to play." Theauthor then followed that quotation with this observation:"Whichcome to think of it might not bea bad idea for U.S. football factories which masquerade underthe title of universities."

practice may provide the neededcatalyst. LaVerne, Tech's nextopponent, will be as tough as Pomona, but the Beavers may surprise LaVerne as well as loyalrooters if things fall into place.
The Play-By-PlayMyers' kickoff was returned to
the Pomona 24. On the first playHaynes passed to Dundas for 76yards and six points. Weaver'skick was good, and the Flycatchers led 7 to 0 after 40 seconds ofplay.
Dinius returned the kickoff tohis 41, but Tech had to punt. OnPomona's 21, violent defense byKampe and Jackson cost Pomonaten yards and forced a kick. Techkicked back and the Parakeetsbegan a drive from their 9 whichstalled when Hall and Moweryknocked down passes. After Pomona punted for eight yards,CIT found itself in possession onthe Bobolink 37. But Hall's secondpass was intercepted by Carver,who was brought down with aresounding tackle by Peters. TheMagpies punted out of dangerafter Scott almost intercepted oneof Haynes' aerials.Second Quarter
CIT opened the second quarterwith a drive commencing on theTech 22, and proceeded in short
gulps to the BUdgie 45, where,after two no-gainers, Carver picked off another Hall aerial to inaugurate a Cowbird offensive fromtheir 47. A Haynes-Dundas passpicked up 17, and some shortgains put the ball on Tech's 11.A highly questionable pass interference call against McWilliamson another Haynes-Dundas effortput the ball on CIT's one-yardline. About time for a goal linestand.
On first down Dinius brokethrough and spilled Pomona'sMills for a loss of four. A pass fellincomplete. Kampe held Mills toone yard, and it was fourth andfour. Gambin, sweeping left end,bulled his way into the endzone,but 10 and behold a double penalty was assessed (CIT offside andPomona illegal procedure) whichnullified the play. Fourth andfour again. Haynes faded to pass,and Dinius shot through andsmeared him for a loss of ten.End goal line stand.
Tech punted out to midfield.Buzzard passes gained 11, 18, and17, and it was again first and tenon the one. This time Haynesplayed it smart; two quarterbacksneaks got him into paydirt.Weaver kicked and it was 14 to O.The Chickadees kicked off andthe half ended.
Tech received to open the sec-
ond half and punted. The Squabsdrove to Tech's 59, at which pointGuffrey intercepted a fourth-downpass on his 29, but dropped it andMowery recovered. Chapyak'sfirst-down pass was interceptedby Pomona's Dahl on the Tech41. Haynes promptly cranked upand hit Dundas for a 41-yard TD.Weaver's kick was partially blocked by Harley and Guffrey andthe score was 20 to O.
Brennan returned the kickoffto Tech's 32. A short drive, highlighted by Mowery's 12-yard pickup, ended in a punt to the Titmouse 15. Haynes-Dundas clickedfor 30 and 17. Harley threw Haynes for a loss of ten, but he calmly zeroed in on Dundas again,who made a fantastic fallingcatch on the CIT one. This timeGambin was not to be denied,and he bulled in for the TD.Weaver's kick was no good; 26to O.

Ruddock stunned Fleming lastWednesday afternoon, scoring sixtimes in the third inning in theseason's biggest upset, to take thelead in the Interhouse softballrace with a 3 win, 0 lost record.Ricketts, yet to play Ruddock, isonly one game behind the men-inblue.
Tremendous scores continuedto be run up during the first weekand first day of the second; anaverage of over 15 runs per gamehas been scored in the five-inninggames played thus far.. Sloppydefense, slow and inaccurate pitch·ing, and good bunting have resulted in the extensive offensiveoutputs. With the possible exception of Fleming, no team hasshowed any exceptional hittingability or potential. However, daring baserunning and occasionalfine playing has caused mostgames to be quite exciting for thespectators. Except for threegames, the scores have been veryclose, causing much anxiety untilthe final out was made.
