Club President J. K. Evansproudly announces that he hasconned lovable Wayne Rybackinto acting as producer for thisglorious epic. Actually, Rybackvolunteered, but to avoid anystigma being attached to his tem­porary lapse of sanity, Evans hasagreed to say that he talked himinto it.

Naturally, none of this is goingto happen until third term. How·ever, in an amazing break withtradition, the Drama Club hastaken the first steps to insurethat things are actually going tohappen.

The major parts in the playwill be cast this term, and mostof the spade work will be com­pleted, so that with the openingof third term, rehearsals can be­gin in earnest. In line with thispolicy, readings for parts willbegin next week.Come Out, You!

This year the Club, now theproud possessor of a new direc­tor, Bob Liberman (no relation tothe infamous Beaver) has de­cided to move boldly into thefield of psychological drama andproduce Williams' tale of deca­dence, love, and deceit in NewOrleans. Liberman has consider­able previous experience in theart of directing, having workedin New York and in SouthernCalifornia for several years, andhe is quite familiar with Street­car.

Rader spoke on "Science, In­dustry, and Psychology" lastMonday afternoon in WinnettLounge. After searching for somesubject matter to fit the title, hesettled for a broad review of hisbusiness career and managerialpolicies, then opened the floor toquestions.

The most interesting pointbrought out is that Rader will

Beckman AUditorium was thescene of a rather lively panel dis­cussion during yesterday's ASCITassembly hour, as Drs. HallettSmith, Simon Ramo, Louis Rader,panel members, and Gilbert Mc­Cann, moderator, investigated thegeneral topic "Computers andHumanity." The format of theprogram included a short intro­ductory statement by each of thepanelists, followed by a question­and-answer session in which theaudience was invited to partici­pate.Rader Airs Views

Rader, vice president of theGeneral Electric Company, open­ed the discussion by definingautomation as "anything we doto increase the productivity ofour people." He then discussedthe possibility of automation asa source of unemployment, bypointing out that in those fourindustries which have introducedthe greatest amount of automa­tion over the past decade, em­ployment has risen 51 percent,whereas employment has droppedby 7 percent in those four in­dustries which have automatedleast. Rader attributed this seem­ing paradox to the fact that auto­mated industries have been bestable to compete in the worldmarkets.What the Future Holds

Ramo, of the Thompson-Ramo­Woolridge Corporation and nextY leader of America, concen­trated his remarks on possiblefuture developments in the fieldof computers. He envisaged avast national network of infor­mation storage which would havemany amazing capabilities. Doc­tors, for example, would be ableto feed in information about theirpatients and get back answersthat could otherwise have beenobtained only by consultationswith thousands of other doctors.

Smith, chairman of Caltech'sDivision of the Humanities, feltthat "every new machine is achallenge and also a reward." Herecalled the fact that in theseventeenth century the telescopeand microscope were considered

After a lengthy debate it wasagreed that the proposed changeswould be a disadvantage, and thatthey might lead to a general de­terioration of frosh sports in theconference. The Council madethe following suggestions for Dr.Corcoran to put before the Con­ference Athletic Committee inorder of preference: (l) retainthe status quo, (2) make a var­sity team using freshmen ineli­gible, (3) prohibit the participa­tion of frosh on a varsity teamif a second team is fielded, or(4) change the present rules topermit a varsity and a juniorvarsity.

The proposed changes and Cal­tech's suggested modificationswill be considered by the Con­ference Committee later thismonth. The results of this meet­ing may affect sports in the con­ference for years to come.

When you have heard this youwill undOUbtedly want to acquiremore of her records (she has anenormous and diverse repertoire).I advise The Voice of MiriamMakeba (Victor LPMjLSP 2845)next as it is her latest release,and I think it is superior overallto a third of hers I have heard,The Many Voices of Miriam Ma·keba (Kapp 1274; (S) 3274).

Here is an extraordinary recordI don't think many will have hada chance to hear: a musical, KingKong (London 5762), after a real­life South African Boxer whorose to fame and was then broughtto trial after knifing his girl, whohad gone over to a rival gang.Pleading guilty, he demanded thatthe judge sentence him to death- "to teach people not to go

Caltech was advised in Januarythat the SCIAC was consideringmajor revisions in the eligibilityrules. The new proposal, brieflysummarized, would give studentsfour years of eligibility, permitfreshmen to play on varsityteams, and give each school theoption of fielding one or twoteams with the restriction thatthe second team be composed on­ly of frosh.

The matter, which could se­riously affect sports at Caltech,was referred to the Faculty-Stu­dent Athletic Council, and a spe­cial meeting was called on Janu­ary 26.Athletic Council

Before going further it mightprove informative to state justwhat the Athletic Council is.Meeting about once a month, thiscommittee, composed of facultyand students, provides a generalsounding board for opinion onsuch matters as proposed con­ference rules changes" or anycomplaints or suggestions C0n·cerning improvements in theathletic program.

reason I have a predilection forAfrican music so you will, I hope,excuse some more BS. I call yourattention to several records inthe field which should be ofgeneral interest, especially to thefolk oriented,and some discs forthose whose taste is more variousand exotic.

Of Miriam Makeba, Time hadthis to say: "From Johannesburg... the most exciting new singingtalent to appear in many years."Everybody should at least haveheard of her by now and, speak­ing as one of the growing numberto have heard her perform live,I'd say that Time's is a cautioustestimony. Miriam Makeba radi­ates an a u die n c e--enmeshingwarmth which could only be de­scribed as captivating. Her voiceis at times sleek, mellow, in­nocent, mysterious, guttural, so­phisticated, and always vital,true, untainted, pregnant, andsublime. She is a consummateartist.Song of Xosa

The Times Square Two

Interhouse Sing time is uponus. The event will be held March4 in Beckman, and athough someHouses have been exercising theirhot throbbing larynxes for twoweeks already, others aren't yetorganized.

Dabney is one of the early ones,hoping to improve on last year'spoor showing. Stacy Langton willdirect three sea chanties: "OldMan Noah," "Eight Bells," and"Away to Rio." Also, there aretentative plans for a Russian folksong. To boost their rating, theDarbs will attempt to snow thejudges with a feminine accom­panist.

Lloyd is back in the race, 40strong, after not participating lastyear. They will sing a Negrospiritual, "Somebody's Knockingat Your Door," as well as "LloydHouse Song," which according toMike Meo, their frosh conductor,"is a drinking song, demonstrat­ing that the men of Lloyd havelots of virility."Die Lieder Stinken

Blacker will also enter a four­some in the quartet competition.under the leadership of BobSweet. They will sing a Bachwedding cantata, "Der Herr SegneEuch," and two of the "Liebes­lieder Waltzes," by Brahms.

Blacker is the only House tohave set up a quartet so far.Singing will be Frank Pate, tenor;Greg Bourque, lead; Bob Sweet,baritone; and Wayne Pitcher,bass. They will present "JeepersCreepers," "Thank Heaven forLittle Girls," (a la Humbert Hum­bert) and "Lida Rose."

Ruddock's chorus has been cutto 30, following last year's whole­House effort. According to JohnTurechek, conductor par excel­lence, the cut was made "becausesome of our people are tone deaf."The men in blue will sing "Hon­or! Honor!" a Negro spiritual, "OnGreat Lone Hills" (the chorus from"Finlandia"), and "Der Herr SegneEuch." As you may have noticed,Blacker is also singing this one.This situation may change beforelong.

After being chased through thehalls of Page by a mad Whitlock,this reporter finally reached BobSchor, Page's director. Schor re­ports that they have begun prac­tice on "All Ye Saints be Joy­ful," by Katherine Davis, and"Out of the Depths I Cry toThee," by Will James;

Ricketts, under direction ofTom Oberjat and Niles Puckett,will sing "sam was a man," ane. e. cummings poem set to musicby Vincent Perischetti, "RegnumMundi" by Jacob Handel, and"Soon-A Will Be Done," a Negrospiritual.

Not to be outdone by Blacker,Ricketts also will have a quar­tet. It will consist of frosh PeterRumsey, baritone, and Greg Kou­rilsky, bass; and seniors TomOberjat, first tenor, and NilesPuckett, second tenor.

Contrary to rumor, Flemingwill begin practice next Monday.According to conductor GordonMyers, they will sing the approp­riate "Drinking Song" from TheStudent Prince.

Wondering how a judgewho must rate so many news­papers could catch a misspelling,the staff members looked up thearticle. It was a story about thepaper's last ACP rating, and Mr.Wright (not White) was theirjudge and evidently indignant athis misidentification the Tech·nique lost its "All-American" rat­ing. The whole story, by theway, was printed under the head­line "Better Wright than White."

If you are a collector of un­usual sweatshirts (such as themulti-colored monstrosities in thebook store) you may be inter­ested in the latest fashion. TheAntioch College Bookstore is nowselling replicas of the Antiochteam football practice jerseys forcampus wear. Each one, however,bears the number 69, and thead caption reads "Take Your Pick,69 or Flashy Maroon." There'sno doubt as to what a Techmanwould pick.

A new tradition is arriv­ing at Georgetown University inWashington, D. C. Each year theGeorgetown Philodemic Society(debaters you troll) borrow thecollege dean's car to drive downto Wake Forest. For the thirdtime in the last three years thedebaters have wrecked the dean'scar on their return from WakeForest. The accident, whichcaused about $200 damage to thedean's Mustang, was not the faultof the debaters, but it will be in­teresting to see how transporta­tion to the debate is arrangednext year.

Georgetown is having successin other areas also. Georgetown,at one time a football power,dropped football in 1950.. Inter­ested students, however, havenow organized an informal foot­ball club, not supported by theschool, to play games with what­ever opposition it could find. Theclub's only game this year wasa 28-6 win over NYU's club be­fore 8000 paid spectators.

NYU,. another club school, alsoplayed Fordham, once a nationalpower, before a crowd of 13,200in New York (and national newscoverage). Both these schoolsdropped football over 10 yearsago. Maybe if we quit the sporthere for about 10 years or so,Tech could re-institute the sportand finally get football the stu­dent support it deserves.

Football being very closely re­lated to ROTC, we now switchto Georgia Tech where the Tech­nique recently printed an articlecriticizing the ROTC program.Among the better points was thestatement: "The military mind isa mind that can write noticessuch as:

Progress ...The faculty-Student Relations Committee met on Tuesday

to mull ove,r the student grievances concerning the BeckmanAuditorium charges. Unfortunately little was accomplishedin'concrete help for the students' cause, because the Committeeby itself hasn't the power to change things.

A suggestion will be made to Dean Eaton's Beckman Com­mittee that student labor be used in all possible instances atstudent-sponsored events before paying for B & G labor. Areevaluation of the amount of the use fee is to be made in thelight of known operating costs. This might result in a raisingor lowering of the fee. Also, the possibility of a sliding scalefor a use fee based on the amount of profit made by a studentactivity was discussed. The Beckman Committee will be urgedto base fees on whether a profit was made and not on whetheradmission was charged.

What is needed is a firm decision on the part of the Beck­man Committee to waive the use fee for student use of Beck­man. Very few student uses of Beckman would ever make aprofit. Only if a profit is realized should the student activityhelp pay for a part of Beckman's maintenance expense.

Looking back on the affair one wonders exactly what causedall the clamor. Certainly we do not believe anybody in the In­stitute administration del iberately made the "use fee" an in­flexible rule enforced to rape the student. We put the blameon bureaucracy. A small group of administrators was put incharge of running an auditorium. This group has increased itssize and complexity, and of course its inflexibility. This lastfact seems to be typical of bureaucratic rule. The students arenot the only ones to feel its effect.

Bureaucratic empirebuilding may be a driving force in oureconomy, but we don't like to pay for it.

country cannot muster thesensus necessary to rule.Tyranny of the Powerful

The heritage of the Caliphatehinders free thinking on manysubjects, but especially politics.Theocratic rule for 1200 yearshas not only ossified new scien­tific thought, but the legal fic­tions invented to explain thebreaking away of various partsof the Caliphate also led to thedoctrine, "He who holds power,holds power legally." The Caliphwas Caliph because he had or­ganized a good coup; everythingelse was secondary. The tyrannyof the powerful is a permanentfact of life in the Arab nations,even though the Caliphate nolonger exists.

One very famous Arabian pro­verb says, "A hundred years oftyranny is better than one dayof anarchy." The whole conceptof freedom, as defined by liberalsof the West, is almost nonexistentin the Middle East after over amillenium of authoritarianismand the rational, modern ap­proach to solving problems re­quires free, individual thinkingmore than reliance on tradition.The Arabian states, said Gal­lagher, with the exception ofTunisia, suffer a dearth of freethinking as a result of a theo­cratic concept of the state.Division and Subdivsion

Gallagher then moved on tomore practical grounds - howcan we classify the nineteen coun­tries of the Arab world? How arethey similar? How do they differ?

One method is to divide thempolitically into monarchies, dic­tatorships, and the like. This isa valid, correct method, only itdoesn't say much. A second wayevaluates the countries by in­come. Here, the entire bloc, eX­cept for Lebanon and the oil­rich such as Kuwait, becomes a

Often called "England's great­est living orator," the Rev. CanonBryan Green of Birmingham willspend a few hours with Caltechstudents this coming Tuesdayduring his two week visit toSouthern California. Sponsoredby the YMCA and the EpiscopalChaplaincy at Caltech, he willspeak in Winnett Lounge at 12:30p.m.

Long familiar with Americanuniversity life, Green has gener­ated massive gatherings at Prince­ton, Yale, Stanford, Penn Stateand USC, to name a few, withhis forceful presentation of theChristian faith. Enthusiastic re­actions include this one from aYale student: "One of the reasonsfor his success in schools anduniversities is that he makespeople realize that to be a Chris­tian you need not give up yourintellect."Strange Words!

During Green's previous visitto Southern California six yearsago, his dialogues at USC on aChristian's Sex Morality, FreeLove, and Changing Values stim­ulated the Los Angeles HeraldExpress to report on the Angli­can Vicar's unorthodox vocabu­lary and sense of wit.

Green's many books and ar­ticles include Being and Believ­ing, in which he writes, "Fewpeople would now say that whata man believes is of less import­ance than how he acts. Experi­ence of totalitarian faiths hascompelled us to recognize anewthat how a man behaves de­pends in the not-very-long runupon what he believes. Social lifefor free beings calls for ethicalrestraint. But experience showsthat men discipline themselvesnot in submission to restrictivecommands but in response tovital faith and in the process ofcreative living."

Concluding his lecture stay atCaltech, Charles Gallagher of theAmerican Universities Field Staffcontinued his speech of last weekon "The Arab World Today" in155 Arms Tuesday. The Har­vard graduate, who specializes inAfrican and Middle Eastern af­fairs, commented that he'd beenhissed eight or nine years ago,when he began his first speechat Caltech.

Barring inclement weather, theInterhouse track-and-field meetwill be completed by tomorrowafternoon. The track prelimi­naries were scheduled for yester­day, the field events are to berun off this afternoon, and thetrack finals will be contested to­morrow.

Each day's activities will startat 4 p.m. The usually dull pre·liminary heats were run in thesprint events with lane assign­ments being given according tothe finishes.

Today's menu should providesome exciting moments, especial­ly in the weight events. Theevents include the long jump.high jump, pole vault, shot put,discus, and javelin.

The finals are usually the mostinteresting from the spectators'point of view. The fans will beable to see a 1320-yard run, 330­yard dash, 120-yard high hurdles,100-yard dash, 660-yard run, 220­yard dash, 220-yard intermediatehurdles, and a 4-man 880-yardrelay.

The last problem is keepingthe spacecraft on course. Becauseof weight limitations, a minimumof navigational equipment is car­ried on board. Instead, the ve­hicle's velocity with respect tothe earth is very accurately meas­ured by the doppler shift of itsradio transmissions.' By thismeans the craft's position maybe measured to within 100 milesat a distance of 100 million miles.

To correct the spacecraft's po­sition, a low-thrust rocket motoris provided. This rocket, weigh­ing about 2% of the total weightof the vehicle, can correct for upto a half-million mile aimingerror.

There are some common-senseconstraints on take-off. You don'tblast straight up and out, for youspend a lot of your energy haul­ing up fuel, which constitutesabout ~O% of the rocket's weight.Instead, you get just out of theatmosphere, and then travel par­allel to the surface until orbitalvelocity has been reached. Now,your rocket coasts for a fewminutes until its direction oftravel is parallel to the earth'smotion about the sun. Then therocket engine fires again to givethe velocity needed to escapefrom the earth's gravitational at­traction. This velocity is aboutseven miles per second, but gravi­ty eventually slows the vehicledown to about two miles a sec­ond. Now you sit back and relaxfor eight or nine months.

"Thorough study should bemade of the effects of high car­bon monoxide levels on the alert­ness of motorists and on theirability to drive," Haagen-Smithrecommended. "These investiga­tions should include the respira­tory cripples as well as thehealthy drivers."

"Automobile exhaust control isthe answer not only for eye-ir­ritating smog but also for thereduction of the carbon mon­oxide level we are exposed to,"he added. "Some people still seemto think that all the smog comesfrom industry.

Carbon monoxide from South­ern California freeways rises dur­ing peak traffic periods to levelsthat can dull the alertness ofdrivers, Dr. Arie J. Haagen-Smith,smog research pioneer and pro­fessor of bio-organic chemistryat Caltech reported recently.

"Traffic situations may occurin which concentrations of car­bon monoxide could reach a dan­gerous peak," he added in a re­port published in the CaliforniaState Bureau of Air Sanitation's"The Clean Air" quarterly mag­azine.

The report is based on dataobtained with a new carbon mon­oxide analyzer developed byBeckman Instrument c.ompany.Prototypes .of the instrumentwere installed on a sedan and asports car which Haagen-Smithand a National Science Founda­tion student of his, T. W. Latham,drove in eight freeway trips dup­licating those taken by personscommuting between Pasadenaand Los Angeles during peak traf­fic hours. The devices gave con­tinuous records of the carbonmonoxide levels of the drivers'environment.CO Fnurls

The trips were made on thePasadena Freeway between Pas­adena and the vicinity of Ex­position Park in Los Angeles; theover-all average level of carbonmonoxide on the trips was 37parts per million (ppm) of air.In heavy traffic moving at lessthan 20 miles an hour the levelrose to an average of 54 ppm,with peaks up to 120 ppm.

The outcome never really wasin doubt, since six of the ninestarters played on the footballteam that overwhelmed Ruddock14-7. The game was decided inthe first two innings when theFleming infield had a little trou­ble getting warmed up, commit­ting numerous errors.

Tom Resney scored twice in thefirst two innings while goinghitless the entire game. In fact,Page batted around in the firstinning and very nearly repeatedthe act in the second, while retir­ing the first nine Fleming bat­ters. After the third, Flemingsettled down and the last fourinnings were reasonably well­played, except for occasionallapses on both sides.

Two of the funniest twitcheswere base-running errors. Flem­ing's Randy Harslem was sur­prised to discover Dave Jarvissitting on third when he tried tomove over on a ground ball tofirst. Then, Page's Bob Weather­wax, used to running in spikes,fell down trying to stop aftersprinting to third on a foul popfly.

BY LEX ELBONEIn a fierce battle between the

men of science and those of reli­gion, the Caltech frosh basket­ball team triumphed over Biola,88-57, last Saturday night. Finallyrealizing their potential, the Beav­ers completely overwhelmed theopposition; it was a team effortwith scoring balance and lots ofhustle.

The first half saw the startingteam slowly build up an ll-pointlead with Max Elbaum leadingthe rebounders, Jim Stanley thescorers, and Craig McAllister thefoulers. At intermission the score­board read 41-30, Tech. Duringthe final period, the reserves, ledby Les Fishbone at guard (yuk­yuk), demonstrated the team'sdepth by continually increasingthe lead until the final buzzer.

This victory somewhat soothedthe frosh after the previousnight's loss at Redlands, 90-58.But here the score does notquite tell the story, for the frosh,using C.oach Keith Jensen's newone-three-one zone defense, playedon even terms with that con­ference power the entire secondhalf.

Later, to even up a call whichput Blair out of the game, theinspired ref called exactly thesame fifth foul on Biola's no. 33.

Tech built up an impressivethree-point lead during the secondhalf, only to see Tucker miss acrucial foul shot. In the last fewminutes Biola was too desperateto play the rules, as Tech clungto the one-point gap that wasnever closed. High scorers wereMcCreary with 25, Blair with 14,and Holford with 12.
