The bookstore orders texts basedon clas'S figures submitted by thefaculty. It sems that in the pastthese figures have been onlyestimates. As suggested in aneditorial in the October 26 Tech,a better idea would be to makemore use of preregistration fig­ures for class estimates.

The biggest gripe is over thequestion of discounts. Many ad­vertis'ers in the little t, such asBeckman Auditorium, Kleker'sParkers, and Cal-Lake Camerasgive discounts to Teckers, but theBookstore does not. Accordingto Kermit A. Jacobson, Directorof Procurement and AuxiliaryServices, profits from the Book­store have never gone into theInstitute's general fund. Instead,money goes into funds for stu­dent use.

Before the Winnett StudentCenter was built, the bookstorewas housed in Throop. Profits'went toward scholarships. WhenWinnett was built, the space and

Al­though the pilot program will notbegin until the sec 0 n d term,much planning must be done be­fore then. The RA. Committee,which will obtain the researchersthat will be needed, and the LabTechnicians Committee, w h i c hwill train ghetto dwellers as as­sistants for the researchers, willcombine efforts, in this pilot pro­ject, to formulate the means ofattacking the problem of air pol­lution. The pilot will actually bea small version of the Projectproper, and the estimated budgetfor these studies will be $100,000.Proposals are being submitted tolocal foundations this week.

The present plans for the pro­jects include two meetings in theEastern United States to be heldin the first week of December.The first meeting will be heldon Dec. 2 and will involve suchschools as Cornell and M.LT. Thesecond meeting, to be held oneday later, will include the Carne­gie Mellon University, OhioState, the University of Pitts­burg, and others.

Definitive Proposal ImminentFor ASCIT Research Effort

MikeGaret, chairman of the Coordinat­ing Committee for the Project,states that ideas are needed fromthe rest of the students with re­gard to organization of the proj­ect and the training of able te'ch­nicians. Mike Stefanko, chairmanof the Research AS'sociates Com­mittee, would like to see peoplewith ideas about the RA. pro­gram.

Stude,nt Houses NeedRevitalization

As they do each year, the Student Houses are causing con­sternation among various members of the Faculty Committee onUndergraduate Housing. At a recent meeting of that commit­tee, resident associates of the Houses reputedly received harshwords because of their tolerance of the easy-going attitude thatexists therein. Aside from rather petty physical improvements,nothing has been done to make the Houses into truly attractiveplaces to live. Moreover, the rumor pervades the air that nextyear prices will rise again for campus living, making it ever moreeconomical to live off campus.

Last year we called attention to an idea that would createthree different sets of living accomodations on campus. Thecurrent "Old Student Houses" would remain socially structuredbut graduate students who wished to live in them could do so.The "New Student Houses" would become dorms with meal con­tracts, open to grads and undergrads. Finally, the present"Graduate Houses would be open to grads and undergrads asdorms with no meal contracts.

This plan has the advantages of opening up more alterna­tives than exist now, while still steering clear of the evils of thefraternity system. Moreover, it would increase contact betweengraduates and undergraduates, who now meet rarely, and usuallyin a laboratory or classroom situation. We believe that under­graduates and graduates are of the same breed - inquisitivestudents.

In this week's Tech, we read of a group of undergraduatesliving in the Graduate Houses (see page 3). The decision totry this idea, whoever made it, was well-founded.

Some authorities at the Institute maintain that the Housesare merely a convenience for the students and are not meant tobe part of the total educational experience. This is a naive viewat best. Optimally, the Houses should be so attractive that theybecome a desirable part of the Caltech experience. This will notbe accomplished by raising prices, enforcing rules more strictly,or other such negative proposals.

Last year the Interhouse Committee said it was too close tothe end of the year to consider fundamental changes in theHouses. Is it still too close to the end of the school year?

Almost too numerous to re­member are the many a I i v eWalk Talks and Walk-In Semi­nars in the Y Lounge. Last year,the Y brought to campus underits Leaders of America programPaul Goodman, noted philosopherof education, Rosemary Par k s,then-President of Barnard Col­lege, now Vice-Chancellor ofUCLA, and Prof. Abraham Kap­lan, a widely respected and stim­ulating philosopher.

This year, the Y has imple­mented a four-phase program,"The Ghetto and the City: Blightor Promise?" In relation to thisprogram, Senator Thomas Kuch­el will be on campus on Thurs­day, November 30th. While heis here there will be an opportu­nity for him to interact withstudents, and he is scheduled togive a major address in BeckmanAuditorium that night. This pastSunday, in Beckman, the Y spon­sored a Dixieland Band Concertthrough the courtesy of the Musi­cians Union, the MPTFRI.

For the future, the Y has plansfor a seminar on LSD and Chro­mosomal Damage, and for a for­

eign and experimental film ser­ies, besides the usual range of Yactivities.

Monday, November 20th, willmark the beginning of the Cal­tech YMCA's annual fund driveamong the undergraduates.

This year's goal of $3500 issignificant for two reasons, thefirst being that the Caltech Y hasprobably the greatest amount ofstudents financial support of anystudent Y in the nation. Theamount raised annually is alsosignificant to the Y's total in­come, since many contributors'use the student fund drive as ameasure of the student's supportfor the Y and its programs. Eachdollar that is brought in by theFund Drive increases the amountof outside contributions for thenext year. The drive will runfrom Monday to Wednesday,then resume after Thanksgivingvacation and concl ude onWednesday, November 29th.Pledge now, pay later

In the Houses, the drive willbe conducted on a personal basis,the House Drive Chairman mak­ing announcements and follow­ing up on the UCC's, who willdo the actual solicitation ofpledges or money. Donations canbe in the form of cash, a check,or a pledge; the last of these en­ables the student to put his dona­tion on his term bill. Pledges areprobably the m 0 s t convenientform of contribution for the stu­dent who might not have moneyat the present time, but whowishes to give anyway.

Neglect?Editors:

As the excitement about theResearch Project has grown thework of the Academic ReformGroups has be'en somewhat over­shadowed. On the Teaching Tceh­niques Group we've had some at­tendance problems but we're stillalive. However, we feel that itis hard to find out what the cam­pus in general thinks about prob­lems of techniques' in a teacher'spresentation. Thus, we w 0 u I dlike to invite anyone who is in­terested or has any ideas on thisproblem to make himself heard.Suggestions can be sent to theS box in Ruddock or discussedwith any member of the group.We don't want a list of specificcomplaints but hope for somegood constructive criticism andideas. Remember, we're workingfor an even better educationalexperience at Caltech.

Editors:On Monday afternoon Dr. aIle'

Lindstrom, Head of the ASEACentral Laboratories, Sweden,presented a chemical engineeringseminar entitled "The Fuel CellSolution to the Air PollutionProblem." I was surprised at theabsence. of students associatedwith the ASCIT Research Pro­ject. Attendance at the talkwould have given interested stu­dents a chance to learn, first­hand, about some of the most re­cent advances in the field of fuelcell research, and they wouldhave had the opportunity to pickthe brain of one of the world'sexperts free of charge. Caltechhas the necessary prestige to at­tract such speakers to its cam­pus. In the future I would hopethat students would make betteruse of this valuable resource.

furnishings for the bookstorewere not part of the donation,so approximately $250,000 wasborrowed from the Institute'sendowment fund to cover thiscost. Profits from the bookstoreare being used to payoff thismortgage. When asked howmuch is being applied to the mort­gage each year and how much re­mains to be paid, Jacobson re­plied that he did not have thefigures immediately available.

According to ASCIT PresidentJoe Rhodes, ASCIT had been re­ceiving $1700 annually frombookstore profits. Last year theBOD had discussed the possibil­ity of student discounts, but in­stead the amount was raised to$3500.

Jacobson pointed out that thebookstore is becoming over­crowded and may need moneyfor a new building. Since it isnot always possible to get a don­or for new buildings, moneymust be saved for future expan­sion. He emphasized that eachfacet of Caltech is interrelatedwith all others; the mortgagemust be paid off. Dipping intothe general fund would affectfunds for tuition and scholar­ships.

Among the solutions w hi c hhave been suggested are the useof the soon-to-be vacated steamplant for student facilities, thecreation of more clubrooms andother space by the moving of theCaltech bookstore, and the crea­tion of separate rooms for themost popular lounge activities,such as television.

Winnett Facilities CrowdedMore Work Space Needed

The use' of facilities at WinnetStudent C en tel' has recentlyreached a saturation point. Closeto 80 organizations hold over 1000meetings each year in Winnett.

The reasons for this saturationare varied. Caltech has a sur­prisingly large number of organi­zations; ranging from bridge tocomputers, from airplanes tomountaineering, the diversity ofinterests represented is I a I' g ewhen the combined graduate andundergraduate population ofslightly over 1300 is considered.This large number of organiza­tions severely taxes the limitedspace of Winnett, making meet­ing and desk space difficult, ifnot impossible, to obtain.

Cram

In addition, the large numberand varied nature of the piecesof equipment located in the'lounge (including a stereo unit,a television set, an electronic or­gan, and a piano) leads to con­flicts in the use of the lounge.

Tied in with the general spaceproblem is the lack of suitablemeeting places for the musicalorganizations, such as Glee Club.

And Mechanical Engineer Dr.Donald A. Kugath, MSME '60, also atthe R&D Center, is involved in de­velopment studies of manipulatorsand other mechanical devices.

How about you? Do you have whatit takes to make important decisionsfor General Electric? If you think youdo, talk to the General Electric re­cruiter when he's on campus. 910-48

Some of the reasons for mov­ing were stated by several ofthose changing houses. The big­gest reason was to get awayfrom the noise. Also, with kitch­enettes, food could be fixed morecheaply and to conform to morepersonal tastes.

Bill Ke'lls, living in Marks', saidthat since he was taking twograduate courses already, the ar­rangement was well suited. Irv­ing Yura said, "It's an individualthing. If' you want to move, youdo. It all depends on what sacri­fices you want to make and whatadvantages you want to take."

This desire to break the stronglines between grads and under­grads was shared by Dr. Hum­phrey and Dr. Knowles. A majorconcern is to encourage a num­ber of graduate students to moveinto the undergraduate Houses.The only requirements for mov­ing either way are to first, havethe available space, and second,receive the approval of Drs.Huttenback, Humphrey, andKnowles.

The major purpose in permit­ting undergrads to live in thegrad houses is, according to Dr.Huttenback, "to break down theI' i g i d departmentalization be­tween grads and undergrads.Ideally, the grads and undergradswould be mixed in the StudentHouses."

Dr. Louis T. Rader received hisdoctorate from the California Insti­tute of Technology in 1938. The pre­vious year he joined General Electricas a test engineer in the advancedengineering program. Today, he isVice President and General Managerof the Company's Industrial ProcessControl Division.

In a step toward making thestudents of Caltech a more mixedgroup, a number of undergrad­uate students have been permit­ted to move into the graduateHouses. At this time there arefive sophomores, all from Rud­dock, living in Braun and Marksgrad houses.

SAN FRANCISCO (CPS) - OnMonday, John Keen, sports editorof the San Francisco State Gater,was checking the pro footballscores and trying to figure outwhat pictures to run in the nextday's sport section.

There was a stir in the cityroom. As Keen looked up fromhis work he saw about 20 youngmen, all of them Negroes, filingpast his desk toward the office ofGater editor Jim Vasco.

"It was' hard to tell what wasgoing on at first," says Keen."These guys seemed to be middle­class - they were all well-dress­ed - and they came in as quiet­ly as' any 20 guys could.

"The thing was very well-plan­ned. About seven of the guysguarded the door and the restwent into Jim's office.

"No, I don't believe I eve rhave. How about some of theother departmental projects?"

"The departments of Myths,Children's Stories, and EnglishLiterature are combining effortsand making a large display fea­turing trolls, dwarfs', gnomes,and evil roges in their naturalhabitat of hot, hum i d, under­ground caverns."

"The Optics Department willhave several lighting displaysin which objects are seeminglydistorted and colored purely bythe lighting used. That displayis called 'Shedding Light UsingReliable Sources:

"Even the Geophysics Depart­ment is getting into the swim ofthings by preparing a large areaof saturated dirt near the PEfield. They will be demonstratingthe principles of fluid mechanicsand hydraulics and they are call­ing it 'The Mudeo.' It will prob­ably be one of the most reward­ing of the exhibits if certainmembers of the department havesunk enough money into it."

"Fascinating," said Barrel­maker. "That's simply fascinat­ing. How about the PsychologyDepartment? Aren't they doinganything?"

"Yes, they have a project, butI didn't mention it because it isso obsure."

Caltech cracks codeOf course, being Caltech, you

The essenceNo institution is perfect, but

there are a few which performso well and with such style, andwhich contribute so greatly totheir communities, as to win uni­versal respect and gratitude. Cal­tech is conspicuously one ofthese. With information and in­sight far beyond the reach ofmost of us, Caltech has pioneeredthe most valued speculationsabout the origins and composi­tion of the universe, about thecharacter of the elementary par­ticles of matter, about the es­sence of life. . . .

Its great Jet Propulsion Lab­oratory, as we all know, madehistory, and will make more, inthe exploration of space. It pro­duced America's first satellite,Explorer 1. It produced the firstinstrument to probe the spacenear Venus, the first close-upphotographs of the planet Mars.And it produced the first softlanding of instruments and thefirst excavation on the moon . . .

These examples of Caltech'ssuperb accomplishments of thepast speak for thmeselves, ofcourse, as' evidence of Caltech'sstature. But they tell us some­thing else as well: science andtechnology represent together apowerful force engaged in chang­ing our world. Now, this addsproblems as well as benefits. SoI should like to make a commentthat has been very strongly onmy mind about the interaction ofadvancing science and technolo­gy upon our society-more spe­cifically, about real dangers tofreedom of the individual in the

Some time ago, I was priv­ileged to have a preview of Cal­tech's plans for the future. Ifound these plans exciting-excit­ing to me as a citizen and a fath­er, and as the governor of themost technological state in theUnion, who properly should fromtime to time take stock of thisstate's great res'ources-and theCalifornia Institute of Technolo­gy is a unique resource, one ofCalifornia's most valuable . . . .

Tonight, without the pressureof a deadline to meet or emer­gency issues' to be resolved, Ishould like to discuss with yousome thoughts about the import­ance of higher education and ofscience and technology, aboutthe matching to technical changeof appropriate, corollary socialdevelopment and maturity, aboutthe using of advancing scienceand technology to the fullest,achieving the promises that areahead and minimizing-if noteliminating-the negatives result­ing from the high rate of scientif­ic and technological change. Ishould like to raise the questionof how our handling of expand­ing s'Cience and technology af­fects the individual, his indepen­dence, his creativity, his freedom.And I should like to comment onthe role, as I see it, of the privateuniversity and college, and its re­lation to the growing influence ofgovernment on all aspects of ourlives, including science and tech­nology...

You are the only person who can answerthat question.

college campuses, and half ofthis goes for government-desiredresearch. I will not pretend thatI can evaluate all aspects of this'outlay. I have no doubt thatmuch of it can be justified. ButI think all of us should ponderthe figure and its impact uponthe many private colleges anduniversities whose backs arenow, financially, to the wall. Theywill crav ethis kind of support.Very likely, they will seek it.But how many of them can ac­cept it and still hold on to theirintegrity?

A precious few, such as Cal­tech, may be' able to do it inde­finitely. I understand that, al­though Caltech today gets a sub­stantial fraction of its operatingfunds from the federal budget,the federal part is for extraordin­ary services rendered. It is notreally money that Caltech todaydepends upon to pursure its veryspecial, independent goals. Butit is money and, considering thedesperate need for money amongeven the most staunch and dedi­cated seats of learning, it is notgoing to be despised or lightlyrejected....

Nor does the supoprt of theprivate universities by the pri­vate sector imply any less sup­port for the important state-sup­ported universities and colleges.I am a devout believer in thebenefits of competition, even inhigher education. In California,where we have both high gradestate institutions and privateones, strong support for both willwork to the advantage of qualityin both. The alternative of asingle, state-controlled systemwithout the side-by-sde, indepen­dent ideas of the private schoolswould be far inferior. In theend, it would mean less' total in­terest in, backing of, and perform­ance by the state's institutions.The other extreme, to work fora predominantly private system,failing to plan for a continuedstrong state-supported operationin California, would be equallyunthinkable.

Maybe you have that fear, too.In any case, I hope you willthink hard about what Caltechand the other private collegesand universties are undertakingthese days for the good of thecommunity at large. It is a tre­mendous order. Few institutionswould dare take on Caltech'splan for the future. Fewer couldoffer any promise of succeeding.But Caltech is by every standardextraordinary in its record andits promise. It has just launcheda campaign to raise many mil­lions of dollars toward the fulfill­ment of that promise. As a pri­vate citizen and as the governorof your state, I wish the institutetotal success. . . .

I sympathize with studentswhen they resent becoming a setof digits on a punched card with­out individuality. However, Ibelieve there is something evenworse; that is, direction, decision­making, and control of researchand teaching coming not from in­dividually brilliant, independentminds, but out of a huge, central­ized government bureaucracy. Ido not mean that the colleges socontrolled are likely to be vic­tims of a plot. I assure you thatI am not talking about Demo­crats or Republicans. But I amtalking about politics in the sensethat a politiical administrationcan generate bureaucracy-andany bureaucracy can be a threatto honest inquiry, and honest in­quiry is the heart and soul ofscientific research.

The federal government nowspends' about $4 billion a year on

is unique. But it shares withothe institutions of higher learn­ing and research, whether state­sponsored or privately-supported,the need for large funds. Andhere there are problems, severaldifferent kinds of problems, fac­ing all institutions of higherlearning. To begin with, highereducation has to be looked uponas an investment. Both basic re­search and higher education,properly conceived and directed,benefit the whole society. Someof the benefits take years forrealization and even for evalua­tion....

The tuition problemThere is also the problem of

getting objective thinking forbroadening the base for acquisi­tion of funds-such as adding tui­tion in the state's university andcolleges (accompanied, I alwaysadd, by an enhanced program ofloans and scholarships for thelower income but deserving stu­dents)-or allowing an incometax deduction for certain collegeexpenses.

Loyola failed to score, how­ever, as' the Beaver front wallforced a Lion fumble on theBeavers' three yard line andfrosh defensive back StewartSands pounced on it immediate­ly.

The Beavers, afterthe first quarter, settled downand pretended to be spectators.That and UCLA's very strongteam combined to m a k e thegame a bad one for Tech.

In the past few wee'ks, Cal­tech's undergraduate soccer teamhas added three loses to its sea­son record. The victorious teamswere WhittieT, Westmont, andUCLA.

On Wednesday, Novemberfirst Whittier came to Tech'shome field for a fast-moving aft­ernoon game. The game startedwith Caltech taking the le'ad ona goal by Burton less than sevenminutes into the first half. Whit­tier's teamwork and the Caltechapathy combined to give Whit­tier two goals, one sixteen min­utes into the first quarter andanother less than a minute intothe second quarter. The thirdquarter was evenly split, withboth teams scoring a goal. TheBeaveT's goal was by ArmandoMoreira off a penalty kick byBurton eighteen minutes intothe third quarter. The fourthquarter was scoreless and thefinal score remained Whittier 3,Caltech 2.

After a Saturday m 0 r n in gdrive to Westmont, the Beaverslost by the humilating score of7-0. Caltech was hurt by the lossof one of its strongest players,

Martin Smith was sixth, Sch­neringer was eighth, followed byJackson, Thompson, Hermeyer,Johnson, Stoecker, and Pasa­dena's fifth man, respectively.Thus it was Tech's famous depththat won the meet.

This was our second victory,which puts the team one up onlast year's group of Cross, Mason,and friends. The conference meetis Saturday, and if Mason canbe coaxed out of retirement forone last effort, the team may doreasonably well (Le., finish outof the cellar).

The reason for the pre sen tpolicy of 10 percent faculty dis­counts is that faculty membersmust continually buy and readnew books for research and forplanning their classes. This re­porter pointed out that manyfaculty purchases are paid for bygrants and fellowships, and thefaculty can still get discounts onpurchases for personal use; butstudents are just as much re­quired to buy books as the fac­ulty. Jacobson answered by say­ing that if' discounts were extend­ed to undergraduates it wouldonly be fair if grad students andemployees' were included. He

said that the bookstore shouldstock magazines not easily avail­able elsewhere, and added thatperhaps students could havecharge accounts at the bookstore.After some discussion, Dr. Rob­ert Woodbury, FCUSR chairman,appointed a subcommittee to in­vestigate some of the possibil­ities.

Jacobson was asked abo u tsome of the proposals. He saidthat the bookstore is doing agood job now and that anychanges could be made only aftercareful study. There is the basicquestion of whether or not thebookstore should carry its ownweight. Fiscal policy at Caltechaffects every operation. One mustlook at the question from bothsides, remembering that a changemight hurt more than help.

He pointed out that coops oftenhave trouble with capital, man­agement, the facility itself, anda policy for the benefit of stu­dents. When ask e d what thechances of change would be if amajority of faculty and studentswanted discounts for students, hesaid that the administrationwould have to make the final

The topic of the bookstore wasbrought up at a meeting of theFaculty Committee on Under­graduate Student Relations (FC­USR) and its student memberson November 9. It was suggestedby several that the Caltech book­store be operated as a coopera­tive, as is done at UCLA, Har­vard, Yale, Princeton, and otherleading schools. Under such asystem, students who patronizethe bookstore receive either dis­counts at the time of purchaseor else bonuses at the end of theyear, based on the amount ofgoods bought.

Dr. Daniel Kevles suggestedat the FCUSR meeting that a coopplan be studied. Many peoplefeel that the faculty is more ableto afford books than students.If discounts were offered, morestudents would buy more booksand thus gain a broader educa­tional background. Kevles point­ed out that the main issue waswhether the bookstore should bejust a business or else part of Cal­tech's educational program. He
