VOLUME 94 NUMBER 15 MIT, CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1974 FIVE CENTS

This piroposed design of a bridge to span the (;artes Kiver,developed by CAVS Fellow Friedrich St. Florian, was exhibited inthe Hayden Gallery in March 1973. Director of the Center forAdvanced Visual Studies Gyorgy Kepes said that such exhibitionsare valuable source of input to the Center from the general MITcommunity.

"Continous News ServiceSince 1881"

By Dave DanfordCan the wedding of art and

technology 'be a-meaningful andproductive union? Can it last?Will the children be beneficial toboth community and culture?

The answer to all of thesequestions, according to ProfessorGyorgy Kepes, i.- a definite yes.Kepes, who 'organized the MITCenter for Advanced VisualStudies (CAVS) in 1967 andnow it's director, said, "Our ageis potentially a great age. Wehave everything available to cre-ate a richer life. Artists have animportant role to play."

He emphasized that in thecontext of the twentieth cen-tury, artists and scientists havemuch to offer one another, andthat the philosophy of CAVS isto foster such collaboration. "Tobe potent, artists have to learnabout scientific and technologi-cal tools," said Kepes.

Many of the Center's projectsare quite large, even environ-mental in scale. For example,Kepes cited the design of abridge across the Charles RiverBasin which would be more thansimply a means of getting froinone side to the other. It wouldbe a gathering center, completewith shops. modelled. in spirit at

least, after certain famousbridges in Europe. The overallgoal would be, as Kepes put it,'"to make the Charles River againa rich part of life."

Another project for CAVS isto plan the development of Bos-ton Harbor Islands, using elabo-rate light sources, into places ofdeep artistic experience. Kepessaid that the objective here is toprovide, "a place where peoplecan shed their city dust and cityworries and feel happy." How-ever, Kepes noted, "Civic scaleprojects need civic support, pub-lic money."

Kepes said that other lines ofartistic development activelypursued at the Center includethe exploration of acoustic spaceand the urban sound fabric andthe development of "soundoases"' for cities. Also electronictechnology is being applied tothe rather untouched realm of"termal art," artistic expressionthrough varying temperatures, asopposed to the varying colorsand textures of conventional art.

Friedrich St. Florian, a Fel-low in CAVS, described the dualcommitment that an artist haswhen he comes to the Center.First, he works on projects gen-erated within CAVS, such as the

Charles River Bridge. In addi-tion, a Fellow does 'his ownprofessional work.

St. Florian noted "consider-able strain" at times to coverboth commitments because "amidcareer artist cannot simplydisappear from the scene."

Despite the demands, St.Florian said, "For us (Feliows)to come to MIT is certainly amajor asset. People come hereand are delighted. MIT is a greatplace for an artist to be."

St. Florian commented, "Theartist finds, 'in the scientist, afriend. There are incredible ana-logs between the artist and thescientist. Their concerns are verymuch interwoven." He said thatthe artist and the scientist useintuitive and logical pathways,respectively, to arrive at thesame conclusions. "The scientist,much better than the artist evercan, proves the artist's point,"he said;

UAVP/UAP candidates Larry Appleman '76 and Bob Zimmerman'76 are still trying to get their names on the official ballots. Theywere not allowed on the ballots after they compiled only 393signatures on their candidacy petitions, but a review is being made todetermine whether or not this number will be sufficient.

By Mike McNuameeAn overruling of an earlier

decision that kept Under-graduate Association Presidentcandidate Bob Zimmerman '76off the ballot for next week'selection might be due soon.

UA Secretary-General SteveShagoury '76 (DTD) told TheTech yesterday that it "is quitepossible" that he might reversehis earlier decision not to acceptthe petition of Zimmerman,with 393 signatures, as sufficientfor placing the candidate on theballot. The UA Constitution re-quires that. a candidate for UAPcollect signatures from 10 percent of the undergraduate -stu-dent body to be placed on theballot.

Shagoury's earlier decisionwas based on an estimate of4000 undergraduates, or a re-quirement of 400 signatures.However, according to Ms. IsabelBarkley in the Registrar's Office,the undergraduate enrollmentfor this term is 3571, whichwould mean that only 357 signa-tures would be required. '

The signatures on all threecandidates' petitions are beingreviewed, Shagoury told TheTech. He stated that he wouldhave a decision on Zimmerman's

placement on the ballot for nextWednesday's election "as soon aspossible."

StatementsThe three candidates sub-

mitted statements earlier thisweek which outline theirplatforms for the elections,which will be held next Wednes-day. The statements (see page 4)were delivered at a question-and-answer session with 'e-h Techeditors last Monday night.

The candidates and a brief

summary of their statements:Dick Michel '75 (SAE), who is

running with Dave Jessich '75(PGD) as UAV. Michel statesthat "The UA has becomevery bogged down," but hefeels that there is still a lot theAssociation can do. Michel andJessich propose using many ofthe existing governmentalbodies more effectively byletting the UA "tie.;. togethertheir interests, and allieviate

and Dining H.E. Brammer willannounce today that all Institutedining halls -are now servingUnited -Farm Workers (UFW) let-tuce and will continue to do soas long as it is available.

Brammer has told The Techhe will make the announcementat a meeting of the United Farm-workers Organizing Committeeat noon today. One of the majoraims of this committee has beenthe removal of -Teamsters' let-

tuce from the MIT dining'fialls.According to Brammer, if

UFW lettuce (now comprising20% of that available) becomesunobtainable, "reasonable sub-stitutes would be used." Bram,mer defined "reasonable substi-tute" as "any type of greensexcept Teamsters' lettuce."Brammer said that he made thisdecision "simply because ourclientele has shown us that thisis what they want."

By Mike McNameeAn unprecedented, method

for the payment of a fine forrush violations has been sug-gested by Sigma Alpha Epsilon,and will be considered by theInterfraternity Council (IFC) atits next meeting - payment byparty.

SAE, which owes the IFC$400 for a fine levied against thehouse due to violations of rushrules in September 1973, de-cided Wednesday night to offerto pay the fine by hosting aparty for all fraternities later thismonth. The offer was consideredlast night by the Executive Com-mittee (ExecCom) of the Coun-cil, which will recommend acourse of action to the fullCouncil at its April meeting.

The ExecCom was not avail-able when The Tech went topress last night. IFC ChairmanPeter Mancuso '75 (SPE) toldThe Tech yesterday that he ex-pected that the Committee willrecommend that the IFC acceptSAE's offer, providing that thefraternity-pays the fine so theIFC can finance the party.

The fine is one of two levied

against the SAE. house last falldue to rush violations. SAE paida $150 fine-for improper sign-insign-out procedures in rush ear-lier this year. The $400 fine isfor "conduct detrimental to arushee," due to an incident inwhich a freshman who had beenbid by the SAE's was "discour-aged" from pledging when hewas told that the house wouldbe overcrowded if he did so.

Mancuse told The Tech thatthe fraternity was billed for bothof the fines last December, butthat the smaller fine was notpaid until March. SAE presidentGreg Hawkins '75 approached theIFC with the idea of using aparty to pay the fine beforeeither of the fines were paid, butthe house paid the smaller fineshortly after the idea was pro-posed.

Three other fraternities. -Lambda Chi Alpha, Zeta BetaTau, and Delta Kappa Epsilon-were fined a total of $325 forrush violations in 1973. Accord-ing to IFC Jucicial Committeechairman Mark Suchon '76(DU), these fraternities have allpaid their fines.

(Continued from page 1)sophomore who helped to orga-nize opposition to the serving ofnon-union lettuce, remarkedthat proving this fact to theDining Service has been a long,difficult task. "We first came tothe Dining Service last springwith a petition containing 2,000signatures, then/met here againin November," Swigart said. "Ithink he (Brammer), though,was justified in wanting to getthe. opinions of some other unin-volved third party."

"Thus we came back inDecember with a decision by theCalifornia Supreme Court a-gainst the Teamsters and withthe results of a study made by areligious committee in Cali-fornia, among others... It wasat this meeting that they (theDining Service) decided to putup signs as to what type of

lettuce was being served."Brammer said the signs were

an attempt to see whether or notobjection to nonunion lettucewas widespread enough to war-rant a change, but explained that"we immediately ran into prob-lems." "Just as the signs weregoing up, the trucker's strikestopped our shipments of UFWlettuce," Brammer said. "Thus,any sales data that we did getwas very tricky to interpret."

"At a meeting on March 21,though, they (the united FarmWorkers organizing committee)handed us another petition withtwo thousand and twelve signa-tures," Brammer continued."When we looked at the signa-tures on this petition (requestingthat the Housing and DiningService discontinue serving non-UFW lettuce) we found a verybroad based support indeed."

Candidates set positionsfor this week' UAP vote

(Continued from page 1)cross-purposes." They proposeand extensive social program, aswell as UA involvement in aca-demic programs such as the Har-vard and Wellesley Exchangesand "direct fund-raising forscholarships and research."

Steve Wallman '75 (MacG),with Jim Moody '75 (Baker) ashis running mate. Wallman citeshis and Moddy's experience inInstitute activities as qualifyingthem as "people who know whatthey are doing," and states that.this will enable their ticket toaccomplish more than the UAPhas done in the past. Stating aninterest in social, academic andadministrative work with theUA, Wallman and Moody stresstheir experience as a key for"getting results" on a detailedseries of programs.

Write-in candidates Bob Zim-merman '76 and Larry Apple-man '76 (PKA) state that theyare "noisemakers," and plan towork for "self-determination ofthe student body." Zimmermanattributes -the UA's lack of acti-vity to insufficient funding fromthe Institute and intereferencefrom the MIT administrationwith events.

Undergraduate interestInterest in the UA among its

constitutents - the undergradu-ate student body - has beendeclining in recent years. "NoUAP" and candidates that haveproposed abolishing the organi-zstion have been popular in thelast three elections. Only about20% of the undergraduates votedin the elections last spring.

Wallman stated that he thinks

the UAP should be "the guywho gets people moving." "It's ahigh-potential job, and it's thejob that you make it," he said.Moody has expressed an interestin creating a more representativeform of government for under-graduates, and Wallman said thathe feels that this should be animportant priority for the As-sociation. Wallman also explain-ed that speaking privileges forstudents at faculty meetings andinvolvement of the UA in aca-demic programs would be a goalof his administration.

Zimmerman placed his em-phasis on getting greater free-dom and self-determination forstudents. He cited the refusal ofthe Dean's Office to allow theStudent Homophile League tohold a gay mixer several yearsago, and the recent denial ofpermission to house coeds for PiKappa Alpha as examples of"repression" that he would tryto allieviate. "I would representthe SHL and PKA and othergroups like them as UAP," Zim-merman said.

Michel's proposals emphasizesocial events more than those ofthe other two candidates, but healso expressed an -interest infund-raising ghrough the UA foractivities and academics. "TheAssociation can help new organ-izations get started, it can getmoney for new and old prog-rams, and it can raise scholarshipfunds," he said. However, workneeds to be done - on themachinery of the organization,according to Michel "the seedsof a useful organization, arethere, but it needs a new orienta-tion.

The petition was signed by1,236' students, 210 faculty, 427employees and 139 others ac-cording to Brammer.

Brammer said that as a resultof this meeting he approachedthe administration with this pro-posal and received "a firm ap-proval. The only two things thatcould make me re-evaluate thiscourse now would be if theprices of UFW and substitutelettuce became noncompetitivewith that of the teamsters' or ifthe supply of all greens otherthan teamsters' lettuce were todisappear.

Swigart replied that "we areperfectly willing to press for thedining service to serve no greensat all if they're unable to getUFW or stubstitute greens. TheWorkers have rights which even amajority of people cannot takeaway. Buying Teamster lettucewould help deprive them ofthese rights, so the communityWould just have to go withoutlettuce whether they like it ornot."

Lawr anwdTHETECH FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1974 PAGE3

By Mike McNameeThe changing nature of.

American society from a "con-'sensual" to a "conflict-oriented"society has. led to a misinter-.pretation of the term "law andorder" and self-defeating effortsto stop crime, according to arecent Compton Lecturespeaker.

Dr. Jerome H. Skolnick,chairman of the Center for theStudy of Law and Society at theUniversity of California at Berke-ley, told an audience bf about!00 MIT students and facultythat "the simple, straight-forward solutions advocated forcrime control result in contradic-tory effects on the crime that issupposedly being controlled."

Increasing concern with "lawand order," caused by the socialconflicts of the 1960's, have ledto demand for "hard-line, oftenpunitive policies that have morebad effects than good," Skolnickexplained. Citing higher taxes,

-prisons that don't rehabilitate,and a spiral of increasing de-mand for more crime-control asresults of these harsh policies,Skolnick stressed that the public"should be made to understandhow these factors contribute tothe crime rate, in order to for-mulate better policies for dealingwith crime."

Skolnick expressed these re-marks in a paper which he deli-vered at the final lecture in the1973-74 Karl Taylor ComptonLecture Series on Monday. Theprogram was entitled "ChangingVisions of Crime and CriminalJustice."

Complacency shatteredThe social conflicts of the

'60s, Skolnick said, shattered anAmerican society that had beenstrongly consensual in naturesince "the defeat of an absoluteevil under a universally popularpresident" in the Second WorldWar. This society was replacedwith one that, due to the civilrights movement and the protestcaused by the Vietnam War,seemed to be divided and inconflict. :

"During the 1960's, Americabecame an anguished society formany people," the speaker said.This, in turn, led to an instabil-ity in American life that height-ened the emphasis on "law andorder" and public safety. "Thecriminal justice system was chal-lenged for providing neitherorder nor justice," Skolnick said.

The civil rights and protestmovements led to confusion anddisillusionment with the law as ameans for social change, Skol-nick said. "While the civil rights

activist tried to use federal lawto change conditions in theSouth, the Southern officials in-terposed state and local law toblock this," he explained. "Thewhole legal order in the Southemerged as an instrument forsustaining white supremacy, andthe activists of the '60s came toview the law as a tool of illegiti-mate powers."

The disillusionment with lawand the "system" brought abouta situation "in which the Ameri-can people can elect a leaderwho tries to escape paying hun-dreds of thousands of dollars intaxes by donating to the govern-ment papers that he receivedwhile working for the govern-ment," Skolnick said.

Skolnick offered no sugges-tions for improvements in the

old thing" will happen if each year aticket with the supposed enthusiasm butwithout the knowledge is elected to a jobrequiring both.

We have three main areas of interest;Social, Academic and Administration, inwhich we wish to accomplish some spe-cific goals.

The first of our three areas of interestis in social events. For the past two years,through a variety of groups, we haveorganized and worked on such things asRock Revivals, Spring Concerts, MidNiteMovies, Coffeehouses, and lectures. Onething people want is more campus-wideevents, more things to happen so thatthere is real activity at MIT. To accomp-lish this goal, we would like to helpcoordinate and organize more activities.We'have been instrumental in initiating adance/concert series which will begin thisSaturday, April 6, at 9:30 in the Sala (bythe SCC). We are presently working onthis year's Spring Concert (similar to lastyear's Sha-Na-Na) and would liketo startplans for a fall concert or weekend. Wehave learned a variety of things -in- the'past two-years about programs and therunning of them. We know the ropes,what can be done, and how to do it.We've got plenty of ideas, plenty ofenergy and plenty of enthusiasm.

The second major area of interest isthat of educationally related endeavors.This includes, for instance, opening up,publicizing, and initiating academic ex-changes (i.e., the Harvard exchange). Bythe publication of a booklet describingthe opportunities, and by advocating theinitiation of more programs, the educa-tional horizons now available at MITcould be greatly broadened. The possibili-ties for change in the grading system hereare numerous. There should be morestudent input and a form of continuingevaluation of the various parts of theacademic program (requirements, grades,unit. limits, etc.). The formation andstrengthening of departmental commit-tees (similar to the Course 6 student-faculty committee) within each of the 25academic units will enable students todevelop modifications and have them puteffectively into operation. Students canprovide a great deal of input and originatechange if the opportunity is presentedand there are people pushing. Institute-wide programs, like UROP should also bereinforced, such as publicizing openingsin mid-term. A student placement officethat actively sought summer jobs (muchalong the same lines as the graduateplacement office) would greatly help withthis continuing problem. In addition, thecauses for complaints continually re-ceived about the financial aid and studentaccounts office need to be remedied.These are all-ideas that can, should, andwill be pursued with vigor.

Our third area of interest is in theUndergraduate Association and 'studentgovernment itself. More communicationbetween the students, student govern-ment, and the administration would bebeneficial. More money is needed forundergraduate organizations and events.Office and activity space for many clubsis sorely lacking, and better facilities arealways desired. We know what the prob-lems are and we know how to startgetting results.

The key idea behind this part of ourinterest, the thing which will act as a basefor communication and resource pool forideas and support, is a form of representa-tive government. The feedback whichwould be provided by this group, theidea, the communication, would be in-valuable. With a functioning representa-tive body, the power base for the UA toaccomplish its objectives would be greatlyincreased. In addition, and most im-portant, the mechanism for the studentsto enter into the decision-making process

By Dick MichelIn the recent past, the UA has become

bogged down due to an unfortunatecombination of disinterest and disorgani-zation. Still, we feel that the machinery isfar from dead; all it requires is a goodoverhaul. Dick Michel and Dave Jessichare very interested in undertaking thistask.

Two components are necessary to a-chieve this: one is experience, and theother is a fresh, innovative approach.Both of us have the broad based back-grounds required. I have served oh Nom-Corn and IFC Judcom, and am a pasthouse manager of my fraternity. Dave iseditor of the Chemical Engineering "Pipe-line," is also on NomCom, has worked onhis class Ring Committee, Kaleidoscope'72, and the Tutoring-Plus program.

A major obstacle of effective UAfunctioning is the lack of awareness ofeven interested students as to what iscurrently going on. We propose newmedia approaches to reaching undergrads,including a monthly newsletter-as well asvisual advertising at LSC movies. Further,increased feedback and accountabilityfrom students already on the variouscommittees must be strived for. This ispresently not the case.

Quite a few bodies exist at presentwhich could easily be put to much moreeffective use if directed properly. TheASA should actively recognize clubs andhelp them to get the funding they needand the help they require. The classgovernments are also presently rathernominal and could be put to work onparties, fund raising, Open House, and thelike. Also, the IFC, Dormcom, and theDean's office operate almost entirely in-dependently. The UA must tie togethertheir interests, and alleviate cross-pur-poses, such as those of housing and rush.

Institute life is finally beginning toapproach that of a true university andthis must continue. The Wellesley livingexchange may be re-instituted this fall,and we would like to push for it- bymaking the UA actively useful to it. Andof course the parties must go on. Besidescontinuing Kaleidoscope and Open Housein an aggressive way, our ideas include afall weekend, a winter carnival, and moresuper-blasts with super groups.

Academics must not be overlooked.The Harvard exchange is by no meansfully developed or utilized, but it couldbe. The UA should also re-institute itsactive part in direct fund raising forscholarships and research.

Got a problem? Need money? The UAshould be there. We're calling for ast:akedown, ,not a breakup. It's a full timejob for corresponding experience, and itmust start now. These are our ideas; ouronly promise is that we will do our bestto put them and hopefully many othernew ones into action. We need your help,and you have our thanks.

In Case of Insomnia -

Energy from whereBy Storm Kauffman

The energy crisis is officially over, thegovernment says so. I know, and soshould everyone, that the energy crisis isnot over, in fact, it is just beginning.

The basic causes of energy shortagesare the overconsumption by small groups(such as the US) and the insistence that agrowing economy (meaning more powerrequired) is necessary to keep a nationhealthy. It is important that we stop ourexponential growth in consumption, es-pecially as we have already reached suchmassive levels of demand.

Assuming that energy growth can soonbe slowed or stopped, the US is still facedwith the necessity of finding sufficientsources to meet these constant needs.

Included in possible sources of energyare the presently utilzed ones - oil,natural gas, coal, hydroelectricity, andnuclear fission - and those which mayplay an increasingly inmportant role in thefuture - geothermal, solar, oil shale andtar sands, wind and tides, and nuclearfusion. The reserves of the former groupare limited; technical problems with thelatter group are yet to be solved, butwork is proceeding faster and it is thesesources that hold hope for the future.

Petroleum is an ideal fuel for most ofour needs and has, therefore, come tosupply over 40% of our energy. It isportable and its combustion releases re-movable pollutants. Fairly inexpensiveuntil this year, oil is now in increasinglyshort supply.

Natural gas is an excellent fuel. It is thecleanest to burn, producing practicallyno pollution. Artificial price ceilings havekept its price far below demand levels,but natural gas supplies are also verylimited.

The US has extensive coal reserves,something like a third of those known inthe world. Coal has disadvantages thathave'resulted in decreased consumptionin the last decade: pollution emissions,high mining cost in money and environ-mental impact, cost and difficulty oftransport. These problems will have to besolved in the near future if coal is to takeover from the other fossil fuels.

Hydroelectricity is clean and uses nofuel, but the US potential has alreadybeen largely exploited and its share of thetotal supply will continue to decrease.

Nuclear fission is the cleanest andmost compact energy source, but, besidesquestions of nuclear safety and radio-active wastes, there is the problem thatthe fuel for present types of reactors is aslimited as oil and gas. The breeder reactorwill. be necessary if fission is to play acontinuing role in the US energy scene.

Geothermal power is already beingutilized in a few locations in the world.Unfortunately, this clean energy source ishighly limited and very regional.

Solar power would be the answer to allour power problems: it is absolutely cleanand introduces no additional waste heatto the environment Technical problemsare so great, however, that it is unlikelythat solar power will become significantwithout major breakthroughs.

Oil shale and tar sands hold extensivereserves of petroleum-type fuels, butmuch work on the techniques of extrac-tion is needed. The price of oil has onlyrecently reached levels at which suchextraction begins to look economical.

Wind power is clean and already wide-ly used. However, its energy potential isvery small. Tidal power is also clean, butthere is little of it and little experiencewith it.

Nuclear fusion offers some of theradioactive dangers of fission while prom-ising plentiful energy fromn the vast quan-tities of deuterium in the sea. However,controlled fusion is still a theory andeconomic fusion reactors still a dream.

UA lElgction: eandidates 'statementsmore than once a -year would be re-estab-lished.

These are the things that we want to-do for you. We've got the ideas and theinterest. Please vote for us: Wallman-Moody for UAP-UAVP. Thank you.

Write-in slateBy Bob Zimmerman

At the present time, there are twocandidates on the ballot for UAP/UAVP.We are not. Despite 393 signatures on ourpetition (and 90 that were ripped up bysomeone who thought he was beingfunny) out of the 400 necessary to beplaced on the ballot, we are not allowedon it and we are now forced to run aswrite-in candidates. The election com-mittee's continuing obsession with mick-ey mouse technicalities (they said wecouldn't "prove" the existence of thesignatures that were torn up), we are.being kept off the ballot. We are runningour write-in campaign to give the under-graduates as alternative, a necessary al-ternative.

Linda Tufts and former UAPs havecomplained that they don't have enoughmoney due to FinBoard's limited re-sources. FinBoard complains that theydon't get enough money from the Stu-dent Affairs office. Undergraduate activi-ties are constantly restricted by an inad-equate flow of funds from the Institute;This is because the administration assignsa low priority to maintaining a decentall-around environment for undergradu-ates at MIT. Research activities and con-struction projects have always taken pre-cedence over student affairs.

In the past UA presidents have allowedthe Undergraduate Association to becomeatrophied, and allowed the Institute ad-ministration to usurp the UA's powers. Idon't grease palms or tactfully glide alongwith the administration - that's not theway I think things should be done.

My "plan" is very simple. I am anoisemaker. I don't care to follow in thefootsteps of past presidents who resignthemselves to facts as they are. If asituation needs-to be changed, we mustnot rely upon a benevolence of a despoticadministration. I will pursue all ends untilcompletion - not any sooner. Self-determination of the undergraduate bodyis essential - not a dream. I am not goingto promise the world and deliver nothing.The only thing I can promise is action.The stagnent sludge which best typifiesthe UA must become a ripple tank. Nolonger will activities be called off due tointerference from the administration.

"You've made your bed - you cansleep in it!" best describes the situationon campus. No one did anything andnothing has been accomplished. I will bethere as a persistent, never stoppingthwart to the repression of the under-graduates. Out of $3100 tuition, $20 isspent on student life. That is ridiculous. Ican't promise apocalyptic results, but Ican promise action. But you have to writein y.our vote. Zimmerman/Appleman forUAP/UAVP.

THETECH FRIDAY, APRI L5, 1974 PAGE 7

By Rick CharpieAfter a week of fun in the

sun, the MIT baseball team re-turned from Florida with thebest spring exhibition record inMIT history. Overall, the MITsquad posted a 4-1 mark withthe only loss coming to powerfulEckerd in a 3-2 squeaker. '

Perhaps the highlight of thetrip was the outstanding defen-sive play of the Beavers, parti-cularly the fine performance ofthe pitching staff which postedfive complete games in fivestarts. The hurlers allowed lessthan- one and a half earned runsper game, while the infield com-mitted only two errors in thefive games.

The week opened with a 5-1victory over Embry Riddle. DaveYauch '75 went the distance forthe Beavers yielding only fivehits while the offense parlayednine basehits into five earnedruns. Every starter connected fora hit. As this was the first outingfor the Beavers it is remarkablethat the infield · tumrned twodouble plays while committingonly one error.

This workman-like efficiencywas repeated the next day in a--rain-shortened 7-1 victory overthe same Embry Riddle team.The Beavers erupted for threeruns in the first inning and fourin the third; the game was neverin doubt from that point.

Mike Royal '76 was the win-ning pitcher, continuing to buildon the fine record that hemolded last year as MIT'sRookie of the Year. Hitting wasagain distributed evenly through-out the lineup with Steve Reber'74 and Roy Henriksson '76leading the way with three hits

apiece.Next the Beavers moved on

to Eckerd and a heartbreaking3-2 loss. Yauch was the hard-luck loser as the offense failed tocapitalize on numerous scoringopportunities, leaving six menon base. Despite bases loadedsituations in the first and eighthinnings only sacrifice flies byBob Train '74 and Kevin Row-land '74 produced MIT scores.

Early the next morning, theBeavers regained their winningways with a 10-4 romp overWestern New England. MikeRoyal again went the route, butthe real story was the opportun-istic offense.

Herb Kummer '75 led theway with two hits, two walks,and two runs scored, as did-Henriksson with a single, triple,and three runs scored. Ignited byback-to-back cannon shots offthe bats of Henriksson and MikeDziekan '76, the MIT squad ex-ploded for five runs in the finaltwo frames to bury the Trojans.

The fine trip concluded witha 4-0 cakewalk over Denison, ascore which could easily havebeen higher. Don Proper '76pitched a sweet four-hit shutout,mixing his variety of pitches wellto record ten strikeouts.

The problem of a third startermay have been solved byProper's excellent outing againstDenison. Dave Wargo and KenSmith, who hurled in a practicegame with Bethany, were alsoboth very impressive and mayprovide the staff with some gooddepth.

MIT coach Fran O'Brien waspleased with the play of thesquad as a whole. He does in-deed appear to have one of the

inost balanced clubs in years atMIT.

The Beavers open their NewEngland season this afternoonwith a 3 o'clock game against apowerful team from LowellTech.

fourth. inadvanced into the finals wasawarded ten points plus onepoint for each bout won. As allthree _Engineer fencers tri-umphed in the preliminaries,MIT was assured a good finish.

Akerman's effort in the earlygoing was quite good as he wonnine of ten bouts to tie for thelead heading into the finals ofthe foil competition. However, astring of left-handed opponentsin the final rounds appeared toupset Akerman and also his shotat the crown.

A 6-4 record in the prelimin-aries vaulted Eckel into the epeefinals where he ran off a stringof four straight wins. From thatpoint on, though, he was-unableto score another victory, losingmany 4-all bouts while fencingwith an injured finger.

MIT's representative in thesaber competition, Kong Park,also advanced to the finals, win-ning very nearly half of hismatches. Although a fine effort,Park felt that he perhaps couldhave performed better andmoved the team past Penn, onlytwo points ahead of MIT.

Maestro Silvio Vitale had no-thing but praise for his fencers.

NGA s ~ eEVA

Whereas both' Park and Ecke[were lacking in fencing experi-ence before coming to MIT,Vitale was quite proud of theirperformances against the qualityof fencers at the-NCAA: tourna-ment.

Vitale could not findenoughgood things to say about Aker-man. Johan has been an inspira-tion to the team throughout theyear and is certainly greatly re-sponsible for a great deal of theteam's success in Vitale'sopinion.

, So how' does this recent suc-cess bear on the future of fen-cing at MIT? Regretfully, Aker-man will not return to MIT nextfall as he is being drafted intothe Swedish army for a year.Eckel will also be lost, in his casedue to graduation.

Nonetheless, Park will be re-turning as will the remainder ofthe foil team which won thechampionship in the IFA tour-ney at Harvard. Maestro Vitalealso believes that this latest pro-minent effort will aide in attract-ing prospective fencers to MIT.All things considered, MIT's fen-cing team should be a prominentforce for some time to come.

By Dan GanttOnly three schools in the

entire country can boast of abetter fencing-team than MIT, ifthe results of last weekend areany indication.

Competing in the NationalCollegiate Athletic Associationchampionships held at CaseWestern Reserve University inCleveland, MIT's Chris Eckel'74, Kong Park '75-, and JohanAkerman '77 amassed a total of69 points, finishing only behindNew York University, WayneState, and Penn, in a tie forfourth with Cornell.

Not surprisingly, MIT's effortwas spearheaded by the amazingMr. Akerman. Winner of theIntercollegiate Fencing Associa-tion foil championship earlier inthe month, Akerman finished'the tournament wath a record of18-5 and a third place positionbehind Benko of Wayne Stateand Bonacorda of N.Y.U.

The fourth place finish, how-ever, would have been unattain-able were it not for the solidefforts of Park, with eleven vic-tories, and departing team cap-tain Eckel, who picked up atotal of ten wins.

. Perhaps most important toMIT's fine showing was the set-up of the tournament. With eachschool allowed only one fencerto compete in each weapon,MIT's lack of depth in saber andepee was negated.

Playing in a heavy down-pouron a field that resembled amuddy swamp, the MIT varsitylacrosse team opened its 1974season with a 9-3 loss to theUniversity of Connecticut.

The adverse conditions wereprimarily responsible for thetype of game played, sloppy andrelatively slow-moving, as the

,steady -rain and slippery,chewed-up field combined toforce numerous missed passes

, and ground balls.The game marked the debut

of MIT's highly touted freshmangoaltender, Jeff Singer, whoplayed a generally excellentgame, making 24 saves against awell-disciplined UConn attackthat controlled play and keptthe ball in MIT territory formost of the contest.

Also responsible for keepingwhat could have been a routfairly close was the Engineerdefense of co-captain Rick Bye'75, John Boylan '75, and GerryTourgee '76. They hounded theUConn attackers, permittingthem to get very few good shotson net until late in the gamewhen they appeared to tire.

Despite the Engineers' reason-ably good defense, the team'sfailure to put together any con-sistent attack caused 'theirdefeat. Midfield stickhandlingwas poor, and the Engineerscould not seem to make theirpasses on target, getting only tenshots at UConn's goaltender.

MIT did score first, however,at 6:35 of the opening quarteron a shot by middle Roger Ren--shaw '77, but a defensive lapselate in the period enabledUConn to score three timeswithin one minute to take thelead.

Excellent defense and aggres-sive midfield play in the secondperiod allowed the Engineers totie it up. Bob Connor'75 assistedGeorge Braun '75 twice, once ona play behind the net and onceon a fast break. With sixseconds remaining in the half,Connecticut's attempt to holdfor one last shot paid off asattackman Ray Kawata fired onepast Singer to give the Huskies a4-3 lead at intermission.

In the second half, the water-

By Ken DavisMIT's tennis team returned

from its vacation trip to NorthCarolina with no wins, but muchmore playing experience. Thepurpose of the trip, according toteam captain William Young, '74was to get in shape for the NewEngland season; this goal wasaccomplished.

The team flew to Raleigh,North Carolina on Mondaymorning, March 26, to find notthe expected warm, sunnyweather but a blizzard. Appar-ently UCLA's loss in the NCAAbasketball tournament was asupsetting to nature as it was toJohn Wooden.

The netmen opened theirtour with a match against theUniversity of North Carolina,one of the top ten teams in thenation. UNC displayed its abilityby easily blanking MIT, 9-0. "Wedidn't expect to win this one, '

said Young, "but it's good toplay against the best once in awhile."

The next match was againstHigh Point. The team fared only

slightly better, losing 8-1. Youngtook his singles match, and theother team members playedwell, winning a few sets beforefalling.

Coach Crocker's squad im-proved its performance again thenext day against Davidson. BothYoung and Lee Simpson, '75,the number-two singles player,were victorious. Young eked outa 7-6 win in the third set afterblowing a 5-1 lead to take hismatch. Ted Zouros '74 andWally Shjeflo '74 turned instrong performances in losingefforts, each winning a set.

The final match of the trip,was against North CarolinaState. Fired up by their school's-winning the aforementioned bas-ketball tournament, NC Statetrounced MIT, 7-2. Young wonanother Squeaker with a 6-4 winin the third set, and combinedwith Simpson to take the firstdoubles match, also in three sets.

The team should be in goodcompetitive shape for its NewEngland season opener today atUConn.
