"Continuous News Service Since 1881,." VOLUME 90, NO. 18 MIT, CAMBRIDG<', MASSACHUSETTS FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1970 FIVE CENTS GA asks Governor, state to meet school costs By Lee Giguere The Executive Committee af the GA signed a statement Tues- day urging "the legislature of Massachusetts to. immediately consider the enactment of a pro- gram of bloc grants" to help meet rising costs at private col- leges. The statement was drafted in response to requests from the student government of, Boston College to support their efforts to win increased financial aid from state and federal govern- ments. On Monday, over 90% of BC's students went on strike to protest a $300 tuition increase. Richard Olsen; Executive As- sistant to the President at BC, termed the strike "extremely ef- fective." According to UAVP Steve Ehrmann '70, BC students are hoping that other colleges will become involved in lobbying for aid. Ehrmann commented that the Executive Committee draft- ed its own letter rather than sign one suggested by the BC stu- dents because they felt that the wording of the letter might "im- ply endorsement of their strike," and the committee was reluctant to get involved in that issue. According to Don Tye, of BC's Undergraduate Congress, the strike will continue until BC President Joyce tables the tu- ition, increase for '70-'71. Tye also stated that the strike would end if an alternate proposal is presented to and accepted by the students. The strike, he add- ed, is "not only to protest our problems," but also the tight- ening of state and federal funds. BC has the support of over a dozen local colleges, and the undergraduates are attempting to contact universities in' other parts of the state. Olsen said the situation or- igined on March 20 when Pres- ident Joyce received author- ization to increase tuition $500. Joyce explained the situation to the students on the 23rd and began negotiations with student leaders. A compromise calling for a $300 increase next year and a $200-300- increase the following year was suggested. This proposal was unanimously defeated by the student congress which called the strike. Joyce, Olsen said, met with the stu- dents on Monday and Wednes- day and had promised not to make a' final decision until to- day. Calling large operating de- ficits "a way of life in higher learning", Olsen said that the college administration offered the students their assistance "all the way", in their efforts to win increased state aid. He said that the students were specifically asking that the state grant $600 assistance to every college stu- dent.

Boston was the cradle of Lib-erty. How many hands ark goingto rock the cradle? How manyhands are going to cradle a rock?- the conclusion of Abbie Hoff-man's subsequent speech.

Wednesday's rally may markthe start of a new mode foranti-war protests in the Bostonarea. Peace campaigners woulddo well to contemplate the im-plications of this switch, for itcould have 'crucial implicationsfor the Movement.

Last OctoberLast October's rally was all

but exclusively a rational, politi-cal attack on the Nixon adminis-tration and the Vietnam War.Sure, Howard Zinn directed hisspeech against urban problems,

but the crowds - the students,college presidents, liberal politi-cians - came to hear GeorgeMcGovern blast our involvementin Southeast Asia. "All we aresaying," sang the 100,000, "isgive peace a chance." And every-one was looking forward toWashington.

Washington has come andgone, and Boston peace rallieshave changed. The lead speakerWednesday was not a liberalsenator but a radical firebrand.Where McGovern argued that"the, most- urgent and responsi-ble act of American citizenshipin 1969 is to. bring all possiblepressure to bear on the Adminis-tration to order our troops outof Vietnam now," Hoffmanurged those present to join himin New Haven May I and "sendYale University to the moon."Where the SMC last fall wel-comed the support of all liberals,Hoffman complained that "Bos-ton has too many fucking uni-versities, too many fucking col-

imprison the chairman of theBlack Panther Party, BobbySeale. (Bobby is on trial now inNew Haven,allegedly for orderingthe execution of a turncoat BPPmember.) The Panthers areavowed revolutionaries; more-over, they are armed and usetheir guns. Eldridge Cleaver hasboasted of killing cops.

The Panthers came by theirrevolutionary doctrine the hardway: in the ghetto, where thecop really is the pig, where thewhite capitalist system preys oneveryone. Where the courts dis-pense "justice" -on an arbitrary,assembly line basis. Where thelandlord has rights, and the ten-ant has none, for property in

cas, as well as activist membersof groups at Harvard, BU, and ofwomen's liberation groups.They, and growing numbers ofsympathizers, are into revolu-tion. Revolution to smash capi-,talism. To build socialism. Forindividual freedom. For love.For peace. To end Americaneconomic imperialism.

It may be a pipe nightmare,but more people than ever be-lieve that it will take a revolu-tion to build the kind of society'"we" want. No one is quite surewhat we want.

We know what we don'twant. NAC/TIDA does not wantthe war to continue and doesnot want the US Government to

doctrine. It has no programs, itisn't a political party.

By now its hard core mem-bers consider it a revolutionaryorganization. Five years of Viet-nam war, frustration over

'bogged down progress in the Waron Poverty, police oppression ofblacks, hippies, drug users, etc.- the whole familiar Americansyndrome - and a pervasiveMarxistinfluence: these factorshave combined to drive the NewLeft down the road toward revo-lution. Many young people haveconcluded that the capitalistAmerican system is at the rootof these evils, and that beforethey can be eliminated, thesystem must be smashed.

When SDS split, the youngrevolutionaries formed threesplinter groups: Weatherman,PL-WSA, and RevolutionaryYouth Movement. PL advocated(and still advocates) alliancewith the working class to eventu-ally result in classic Marxianrevolution, with proletarian con-trol of the system.

Weatherman advocatedimmediate beginning of violentinsurrection. Theie actions lastfall in Chicago, Washington andBoston have put many of themin jail. Weatherman today is de-moralized and decimated.

RYM 11 stood for revolution- later. This proclivity extendedto many unorganized radicals,including Yippie types. In Bos-ton radicals of such a bent clus-tered around anti-war actions,anti-war' research actions andanti-fascist actions. NAC cameand went; when the Chicago 7were sentenced we witnessedTDA. All these months moreradicals have been moving to-ward a Weatherman faith thatit's time -to start in on violentrevolution.

I met him in Central Squareabout 9 o'clock, after the firstwave of cops had cleared thesquare. I asked him how he'dgotten out. -"Oh, groovy man.This shtupid pig broke away fromthe others to chase me. I turnedmy dog on, him. The dogknockred him down, and I picked

up this big- mother rock andsmashed him in the face with itwhile he was on his back. "

"Did you kill him?"."I dunno. I ran like hell. It

musta smashed his face in good,but I hope he did an hour ago. "

The dog, a huge mother of agreat dane, licked my hand.

NAC/TDA has a de factoinner circle of radical "leaders."The anarchistic/hippie heritageof the New Left disposes itagainst titular leaders; de factoleaders are those who put themost effort into planning ac--tions. The inner circle of NAC/TDA can be considered to in-clude such luminaries as our ownMike Albert and George Katsiafi-.

My Bruce SchwartzRioter. It's going to be pretty

hard getting used to that desig-nation, but that's what I'm goingto be and I know it. We marchedto the Common under the NLFflag; we applauded Abbie, DougMiranda and John Froines. Nowwe march back over the HarvardBridge, shouting "off the pig!""Free Bobby!" and "Ho, Ho,Ho..." Up past MIT, where afew rocks are thrown - the first Itoday - through the CentralSquare business district - morerocks, now cops, helmeted andlooking mnean... we are scared,but we are angry. We are march-ing into the jaws of the cops,into a riot. There will be trash-ing; we know that. The cops willtry to push us from the square.This we know. There will beviolence, blood, and Chicagoscenes. So why?

One side's right, one side'swrong: Victory to the VietCong.

No straight newspaper exceptpossibly- the Globe made anysense of the Battle in HarvardSquare. Predictab!y, the Travel-ers and Wretched American con-fused the action with the Com-mon peace rally; all three paperspretty well neglected the politi-cal meaning of the Bobby Sealecontingent.

Radical papers will tell you"Right on!" and let you do yourown guessing.

In these pages, we will at-tempt analysis. However, objec-tivity isn't found in italic. Bewarned.

The Bobby Seale contingentleft the Common about 6 pmWednesday and marched to har-vardSquare. Windows weresmashed along the way; riotingerupted in the square. This waspolitically inspired rioting.

The Bobby Seale contingentwas the brainchild of NAC/TDA,the citywide radical coalition/semiorganization. The word "se-miorganization" is critical to anunderstanding of the group's ac-tivities. It has no membershiplists, no dues, no initiation rites,few regular meetings, no hard-

totally alienated." Who willknow? The rest of the demon-strators, we who marched thereand knew what would happen,are rioters too. We provided co-ver, put our bodies in betweenthe cops and the looters. Weoffered the choice: let the stonesbe thrown or massacre us. Alittle of both happened.

I asked one guy what he wasdoing there. "Chaos. Before wecan build a-new world, we gottaget rid of the old one." Do It!was a popular cry; Jerry Rubinincited this as much as AbbieHoffman did in the flesh.

And me, too: This one's for600,000 Lao refugees. This one'sfor My Lai. For Southeast Asiaand South Africa. The Americaninsane government must be de-terred and this may be the onlyway left to do it.

The political goals, then, wereto possibly deter the US Govern-ment from antiradical activities,if not in Bobby's case then inothers. There were connectionsto the anti-war movement aswell. It was also planned that theaction should pick up large num-

, bers of people from the Com-mon rally, and it did - 3000 ormore - and raise their level ofmilitancy. "Stay in the Streets"was the tactic settled upon, buteveryone knew that that wouldbring confrontation with thecops, sooner or later. Trashingmade it come sooner, and oncethe confrontation began, the e-vent became drained of politicalsignificance, as all war must.Once hostilities commenced, itwas a matter of fighting and/orsurvival. Some rioters chose theformer, some the latter. Andbystanders, innocent and not so,got in the way, made operationstouchy for the cops, and gotclubbed. The night caught fireand went insane.

Hey, think the time is rightfor viole)nt revolution. The warcomes home. Yet it wasn't quitetotal war; the cops didn't killanybody. A curious restraint wasexhibited by the police. Theydidn't use gas until they had to.They didn't attack the way theycould have. When they had theSquare surrounded, they couldhave massacred everyone. Theydidn't, America doesn't eat herchildren just yet although ..-

quarter to get on the train.On the train a sister was

weeping; her arm limp at herside. "Why are they like that?Why are they so brutal."'-"Idon't know." I said and got off.in Central Square. But I'd lied toher; I knew why.

The cops not only hate, theyfear. They were afraid that themob, which kept screaming bb-scenities at them, kept throwingmissiles at them, was going toattack them. They were afraid aswell as angry.

As for the demonstrators -the rock throwers and burners,the active trashers: there wereplenty angry. It is hard to say atwhat or why; rocks are nothurled with labels that say "thisone's for Bobby" or "this one'sfor My Lai" But perhaps it wasalso a case of "this rock isthrown because my high schoolsurks, college is a drag and I'm

America rates over people. Capi-talism. The Panthers learnedfrom Marx and picked up guns.Now they are revolutionaries.

So what can impotent whiteradicals do except supportthem? The Bobby Seale contin-gent and the stay-in-the-streetstactic were planned to throw ascare into the government: thatthis is what will happen if youconvict Bobby Seale; this is whatyou can expect if the war goeson. This is what you can expectif you continue to exploit theThird World. In short, it wasplanned as a message: We areprepared to fight you.

It worked like this: no oneplanned the trashing. The'NAC/TDA women's caucus had evensaid it didn't want trashing. Onthe other hand, no one didanything to stop it... And eve-ryone knew that there are todayenough Crazies to get it started,

and once it starts, the inevitabledynamic of'riot commenced. Itis easy, in the anonymity of thec;rowd, to vent your anger bypicking up a rock or lighting afire. The cops reacted predicta-bly: their training showed; theywere disciplined in the earlymoments of the confrontation.Only later did they begin to,retaliate for the rocks and bot-tles and sticks hurled at them-while they stood in patientranks, only later did they strikeback at the long-haired freaksw.]o don't work, don't have fa-milies and responsibilities, whodidn't'fight in the War and whocall them pigs.

When.they were finally or-dered to clear the square, about8:30 I guess it was ... theypushed a bunch of us down intothe subway. A guy came reelingdown the steps past me. He wasbleeding. I grabbed him. A lump

Some rockthrowers were-us-ing the subway steps as shelter.The cops charged them; forcedeveryone down the steps intothe subway. They didn't stop;they chased us down onto theplatform. I leaped a turnstile,turned around.

Next Wednesday, April 22, is Earth Day. It is aday to look at the environment and take note ofsome of the efforts to protect it. Events have beenscheduled tihroaughout the Boston area and arebeing sponsored by a multitude of groups, schools,and even Mayor Kevin White. Numerous eventshave been planned for the MIT campus, includingpanel discussions, workshop sessions, and an ad-dress by Governor Sargeant.

By Steve CarhartWell, our local playpen "revo-

lutionaries" had their big doWednesday night. They decidedthat they wanted to play gameswith the police, and of coursethe police obliged. (What else,could they do when people aresmashing windows and burningthings?) In the process theymanaged to negate whatever po-sitive effect the preceding after-noon's massive peace rally mighthave by linking it with senselessviolence which will only frightenthose people the peace move-ment must convince.

Of course, the instigators ofWednesday night's chaos-NAC/TDA-aren't interested inending the war within the pre-sent system, but are instead in-tent up-on starting a revolution.But even by revolutionary stand-ards, Wednesday night's actionwas a monument to its organiz-ers' incompetence. If there wasany specific political intent inthe action, it surely wasn't evi-dent from the tactics, whichconsisted mostly of randomtrashing.

PurposeIf there was any purpose at

all to the Harvard Square activi-ties, it was to play tag with thepolice and hopefully be bruta-lized a little so that we can allsee how repressive the state iswhen peace loving students dothings like break windows, burnbuildings, stop traffic, etc. Ac-tually, it seemed as though mostof the sheep who show up to fillthe back ranks of the NAC/TDAcrowds viewed the action Wed-nesday night like the students ofyears past viewed the traditionalhack spring "riots." Only nowwe've got a holy cause to sanc-tion what we're doing, so somuch the better.

Courageously attacking capi-talism in all its forms, our gallantrevolutionaries sacked the Har-vard Square newsstand to makebonfires, probably costing itsowner, a small businessman nodoubt, a few weeks' salary.Groups would form with those inthe front taunting police, tap-ping clubs on the pavement, andthrowing things. When the policedmoved forward, our gallant revo-lutionaries would retreat. Thenthe police would move back, andthe groups would form again.This took place for about an

15- Two events occurred April 15: the rally on the

Boston Common in the afternoon and the riot inHarvard Square that night. On Wednesday aftei-noon we were happy and pleased that the rally wassuch a large success; by midnight we were upsetand very disappointed.

Nearly one hundred thousand people marchedto the Common to signify their opposition to thewar. Only in Boston did the number of protestors'come close to equalizing the numbers of lastOctober 15. The speakers weren't very good but atleast there were one hundred thousand not-so-silent Americans opposing the administration posi-tion in Southeast Asia. The rally was a successbecause of the numbers it attracted. However itwas an uneasy alliance of the violent and thenon-violent and the strained feelings were evident

in retrospect

The Tech would like to encourage everyone toset aside some time Wednesday to participate inthese activities. If workshops, the address by theGovernor, a parade down Charles Street, or a paneldiscussion with noted ecologist Barry Commonerdoesn't excite you, try sitting outside in the grass.If the smog doesn't get you the fresh air will doyou good.

hour, which surprised me since Iexpected the police to run outof patience long before that.

Bad endingNaturally it got pretty hairy

at the end. You can tell meabout bystanders who were beat-en and I'll agree that it waswrong, but I also believe thatwhen large scale ranfdom vio-lence is occurring, you'd betterleave the area or be prepared tohave a little of it directed at you.You can tell me about how thisviolence is miniscule comparedwith Vietnam, and how I shouldbe worrying about B-52's andnapalm rather than -trashedstores. I'll buy that, 'but firstyou've got to tell me how sack-ing the Harvard Square news-stand is going to do anythingabout the war. Out in Peoria,man, they're going to read abouthow all those Harvard students(it was in Harvard Square, sonaturally they're all from Har-vard, right?) went on a rampagevaguely directed against the war,racism, the establishment, malechauvinism, Cop Duggan and fif-ty other nasty things they'venever heard of. And then Nixon-agnewmitchell are going to saythat everybody that opposestheir war is a no-good vandalintent upon tearing the countrydown, but that Nixonagnew-mitchell will protect you and(somehow) end the war (withinten years or so). And, havingseen the films of HarvardSquare, the folks in Peoria willswallow it whole. And believeme, there are a lot more folks inthe Peorias of the world thanthere are in Cambridge.

The feature at the HarvardSquare theatre that night was"The Circus and a ThousandClowns." That was outside the

THE WIZARD OF I

theatre as well as inside, as itturned out.

Glad you had funSo, NAC/TDA, I hope you

had a good time. I hope -you'llenjoy it when the real repressioncomes instead of the "repres-sion" that comes' when mobsburn stores. You've expiated theguilt you feel for having beengiven a bourgeois American up-bringing by provoking the policeto persecute you. You can playrevolutionary, and then retreatto your academic life and dad-dy's allowance having purgedyour soul.

In the meantime, life goes onfor those who are more interest-ed in results than in establishingpersonal or ideological purity.For the Moratorium, and per-haps SMC, it should be evidentthat any future mass demonstra-.tions will be counterproductive.They can easily be sabotaged bya few "revolutionaries." Thetime has come for the anti-warmovement to enter - and win -in electoral politics. Any futureorganizing by peace groupsshould be directed toward elect-ing specific candidates.

Possible breaksI do not believe that Wednes-

day's fiasco has hurt our chancesfor electing a peace Congress toomuch. Actually, I do not feelthat it' is appropriate to makeany long-term political plans atthis time, since I believe that it isprobable that within the nextfew months we' will find our-selves operating with an entirelydifferent set of political givens.One or more of Nixon's shortterm, politically-motivated poli-cies will probably come back tohaunt him before the fall, speci-fically:

s to The TechTo all MIT students:

The Humanities Departmentis presently undergoing import-ant changes, many of which areunknown, or unnoticed by thestudent body. We are. a group ofstudents who are concerned, be-cause we fear that if the presentcourse of events continues un-hindered, the capabilities andquality of the department, maybe severely limited.

Already the department is un-derstaffed. There are too fewcourses offered, and those of-fered are overcrowded. "Semi-nars" often have thirty people,when intended for a dozen, andcourses desgined around a smallclass are often glutted to threetimes the optimum size. Themore popular courses are oftenof limited enrollment, allowingonly a few students of.the many-interested to take them.

Nor are MIT students uninte-rested in humanities. This termthe total enrollment for humani-ties courses is approximately3400. Since there are about-3500 undergraduates, on the av-erage, each student in enrolled inone humanities course. This re-presents, then, one fifth of-thetotal courses taken at MIT perterm (using 45 units as an aver-age term load, and 9 units/humanities course). Thus the de-partment should be prepared toconduct one fifth of ;all MITcourses. Logically, one fifth ofthe budget for faculty salariesshould then be spent on humani-ties. The actual cut that thedepartment receives is closer toone tenth. (Statistics are fromHumanities Department files andMIT treasurer's report.)

Yet the need for an expandedstaff is being ignored. The situa-tion will be even worse in thenear future:- many of the staff

have been "fired".- their con-tracts have been denied renewal- and there are no plans to hirereplacements for them. The cir-cumstances under which somestaff members have been fiErredare dubious. Yet nothing hasbeen done... no one has com-plained.

The department needs morespace for offices and classrooms,yet rooms are not made availa-ble. Renovations were made lastsummer in three seminar roomsof building 14 cost $18,000 -and these rooms were alreadyusable. Couldn't this moneyhave been better spent convert-ing more rooms.iri building 4into decent classrooms?

If the Institute is allowed to-follow its present course, theHumanities Department willsoon degenerate to mediocrity,and will only be adequate forpresenting, in a conventional for-mat, the required freshmancourses. MIT seems to have for-saken the dream of becoming aschool capable in all categories,and has decided to channel stu-dents' interests away from thehumanities.

Please consider these pro-blems - this is your school. Ifyou are interested in humanities,you should be able to take goodcourses in it, and this requires anadequate staff. If you are con-cerned, get in touch with us atthe address below (valid- via In-stitute Mail):

a good startal strikes, etc. My guess is thatby fall we will either be riding amassive wave r ? ti: ar senti-ment or else fighting a massivewave of repression. I'll make myplans when the new set of givensbecomes more clear.

Every now and then some-thing happens which restores mybelief that rational progress isyet possible in the Institute andin society at large. One suchinstance was the meeting of theCorporation Joint AdvisoryCommittee on Monday whichconsidered the question of howMIT should vote its General Mo-tors shares.

In contrast with some of thecircuses which have been held

.around here of late, the discus-sion centered on substantive is-sues and was conducted at a highlevel throughout the meeting.The discussion was out- in theopen, where all who were inte-rested could see who was doingwhat, and for what reasons. No-closed doors, no clandestinepower plays.. Furthermore, eventhe Corporation members weregiving GM a tough time.

It is too early to say categori-cally, that the issue has beenwell handled, but it is evidentthat a good start has been made.CJAC's openness and openmind-edness on this issue are to becommended, and we trust thatthis will carry through succeed-ing meetings on this issue.

lup, approval of Nixon's Viet-nam policy has fallen from over60%o to 48% in the last fewmonths. Yet now Cambodia ismaking noise about wanting USaid, and we can't get muchdeeper into Laos without arous-ing massive opposition. Some-thing will have to give soon.

The economy: It now looksas though we may have bothrecession and inflation by fall.This could,be a key issue.

The environment: While thishas been a very effective Nixonploy to distract a large segmentof progressive thought from thewar issue, it may boomerang onhim. This issue has politicizedlarge numbers of people whoheretofore have not concernedthemselves with public issues.Someday fairly soon they willwake up and discover that be-hind the Nixon rhetoric, there isvirtually no financial commit-ment (pollution control effortsare only a fraction of 1% of themilitary budget). They will askwhy this is so, and discover thatit is because of the war andboondoggles like ABM. Whenthis happens, this will mean the.creation of a massive new blocof public opinion which desiresan end to the war and a reorder-ing of national priorities.

Just how relevant is all of thisto an anti-war rally? Hoffmanwarned the crowd that "whenimperialism fails abroad, fascismbegins at home," but few of theother speakers cared'about draw-ing the connection; Even FranWeindling, the blond spokes-women for the dissident SDSfaction who promised "the otherstory," only repeated the same"workers, blacks, and womenare oppressed" line. Wednesday'sprotest was less an anti-war rallythan it was the beginning of arevolution.

Maybe that's what is needed,but I hope not. There must stillbe some liberal, rational way torestructure our society. And fu-ture peace rally organizers mustmake the decision - will ourprotest be anti-war or the startof a revolution? - and choosetheir speakers accordingly. -

night may have been the begin-ning of the Berkelization of Bos-ton, and the question is, whowins? Straight or counterculture,right wing or left? One thingseems to be certain: the liberalsare powerless.

But then, the liberals builtthe Pentagon. into what it is.Liberals run General Motors,andLockheed and they trade withSouth Africa. Maybe they're theenemy too.

What is and what will be isalways subject to debate. Butthe riot had a reality of its own.

It is all the war movies andtales of glory we've ever seen .inthe estimated three years wehave spent .watching TV. On theway up Mass A ve the army goingto war, and when we saw thecops, we got scared. So weshouted louder. When we got tothe square, those who were rea-dy for trashing began trashing.

The safety glass in the, Har-vard Trust Company beganpocking. Safety glass does notshatter The crowd hated thecops, the cops knew it. "pigs!Pigs! Kill the pigs!"

Demonstrators started it.Make no mistake. They foughtthe cops, taunted them, peltedthem with stones. For the firsttime, in .recent memory, street-fighting came to Harvard Square.

It was cathartic. Good to seethe pigs taking some lumps for achange. Good to defy them to.get us out of the square, we thefreaks they'd kicked out of Ho-lyoke Center last summer forplaying guitars and other subver-sive activities. Good to feel youwere kicking the machine in theteeth, even if the day after no-thing much might have changed.

I did not trash.. let othersburn the bank.

They trashed Krackerjacks.Krackeriacks had been selling'red armbands for 50 cents andwas making a profit off of themovement.

They trashed the subway ki-osk, the vendor of newspaperslost his stock. What point? Doeshe build MIR V'?

And when the.cops camre, Iran. When the gas floated .downthe streets; most of us ran. Iheinitiative was with those whofought, the trashers and the pigs.

In the glare of T Vfloods, thecops stood revealed with rfles.The face of the future wore ariot helmet.

At City Hospital the banalityof violence yielded to the pathosof pain. 17 stitches - clubbedon the head running away. Bro-ken leg. Tear gassings. The copstook their lumps, but, as theChannel 5 interviewer said, "Wegot at least 200 of them. " Manyof the injured were bystanders.One man with a gaping headwound had been eating in arestaurant when the cops invad-ed, forcing everyone out.

A nd a cop was shovedthrough a window.

A nd a police cruiser wasburned.

A pregnant woman miscar-ried, beaten.

We sought refuge, over thewall, in Harvard Yard. Theygassed us to get us away fromthe fence, to stop the bottlesflying from the wall.

The injured bystander asked"Why?"

"Why what?"

one would hire me looking likethose filthy rioters, and if that's-so... The voice of Middle Ame-rica is heard across the land insimilarity to Middl German c.1933 and that is how fascismrides in: on the backs of leftextremism and right overreac-tion.

Or maybe his son will get himbefore he gets us.

Is trashing a good tactic; Isviolence and street-fighting theway; Will such actions force thegovernment to end the war, toend anything? One doubts it.The alternative 'is that the gov-ernment will redouble its effortsat repression, and the evidence isabundant that this is the case.Increased repression means moreradical causes: the revolution isbuilt by its opposition. Or elsethe whole thing gets crushed andthere are a lot of freaks inReagan reception centers. Last

"Why did they beat me up?""Don't go into combat zone

unless you're ready for battle."

That's where it is today, warin the streets. One doubts it willspur the government of the Unit-ed States or the government ofCambridge to anything buttougher crackdowns.

Backlash has its uses. It pro-duces more revolutionaries ascivil liberties become subordi-nate to law and order. Everyclubbed innocent bystander be-comes a little more radicalized.

We know this.Riots bring down repression.

We know this.Why, then, did we let it hap-

pen? Will we persist?Has the war been ended by

anything else?Will anything short of vio-

lence, perhaps even revolution,alter this society's basic forms,with which we cannot live, wethe alienated, disaffected anddisinherited: the black, thefreak, the socialist?

It wasn't the revolution Wed-nesday night, but what do youdo till the revolution comes?Must it come? Should it?

All one knows is the pain ofthe nightstick and the blood andglass in the streets. The processhas gone too far to end anyother way. There Is too muchhate, fear and tension betweenleft and right now for it to endneatly, cleanly and peacefully.The price of revolution is blood.The price of order is blood.

And you wish it were not so,but there it is. Choke on it.

The streets themselves werelargely clear of debris with theexception of piles of glass infront of a few stores. Traffic inthe area was heavy and movingslowly, but the only evidence ofthe previous night's activitieswas the large number of glasstrucks in the area. The Old Moleand-NAC/TDA offices were dam-aged by roving gangs.

After considerable discussionand a Committee on EducationalPolicy endorsement, a standingvote showed unanimous facultyacceptance of the proposal. Thefaculty .then responded to a CEPmotion- by creating a student-

'faculty committee to assist andreview the development of theSchool. The motion carried des-pite objections by some mem-,bers, led by Professor WilburDavenport, that the existence ofsuch an overseeing body wouldset the School of Health Sci-ences and Engineering apartfrom the other schools and les-sen its stature.

Subsequent faculty action in-cluded authorizing the grantingof undergraduate degrees toCourse XI, Urban Studies andPlanning. Professor John T.Howard, Head of the Depart-ment, presented the motion,which passed without significantdebate The course will begin togrant B.S. degrees next year, butenrollment will be limited fortwo years and will expand as

necessary funds become availa-ble.

The facult-y also consideredthe broadening of the sciencedistribution requirement, as wasproposed by the Committee onCurricula at the March facultymeeting. The motion carriedwith almost no questions.

Responding to the need ofsome students to study at uni-versities in the United Stateswhich possess facilities not avail-able at MIT, the faculty createda new student classification. Stu-dents participating in the Do-mestic Year Away program willretain registration at MIT andwill still be eligible for financialaid, while not paying tuition atMIT. The Foreign Student Ad-visor, Eugene R. Chamberlain,volunteered to shoulder the ex-tra responsib lities.

Other business included theformation of a new faculty of-fice, Associate Chairman of theFaculty, to assist and comple-ment the Chairman in his consi-derable duties. The meeting con-cluded with a motion by Profes-sor, Charles K. Crawf6rd to in-stall a system of absentee votingin faculty meetings, the methodto be devised by faculty officers.The slightly over one hundredfaculty members present defeat-ed the motion.

We must eliminate the nucle-ar arms race and the regionalconventional weapons build-up.We have had little progress incontrol in the last twenty years.

Further, we must create ade-quate international structures to"substitute the role of law forthe present anarchy." We shouldmake "a determined effort tohold down the arms race consis-tent with national security." Thecreation of these internationallaws and bodies is one of thebest ways to hold down the race.

"What I'm advocating is aPeace Race." We must go furtherthan SALT. "We've got an A1-phonse and Gaston act goinig inthese negotiations." The USmust take a unilateral step. If werestrain ourselves, and the Sovi-ets do not join- us, our optionsare still open.

- Dr. William Schneider gave asummary of his analysis of theSoviet Union. He thought it urn-likely that the Soviets wouldattack first because they "havenever done well on the first dayof a war."

This view was attacked byWalter Clemens, who gave hisown summation of what theSoviets would or would not do.

William Thaler finished theformal presentation part of thedebate by a recitation of a seriesof "facts" purporting to showthe malignity of Soviet. intehi-tions.

When he claimed that "ouropponents advocate surrender,"he was interrupted by Wiesner,who said tersely, "I am notadvocating surrender, I am advo-cating sanity."

The first point was that weshould expand our research.Stating that applied research ismilitary research, he claimed weneed more young people to gointo such research. If not, "By1980 or 1990 the United Stateswill be a second class power.Russia will not need to attackus, we'll have to submit."

Several times, Teller attackedthe secrecy system. He referredto a statement by Niels Bohr,"In the Cold War the best wea-pon of a dictatorship is secrecy.The best weapon of a demnocracyis openness."

He said that the secrecy sys-tem stands in the way of realagreement with the SovietUnion. In addition, it is useless.'S stands for secret, you cankeep forever, providing there'sno one abroad who is clever."

Secondly, we have neglectedour defenses and should buildthem up. We sihould expand ourCivil Defense efforts and shouldlook after ABM.

Thirdly, we should developnew weapons. The best weaponsare not even on the drawingboards, and we should not haltour research efforts in this area.But, he stressed, "We must neverstrike first."

The mighty Tech tennis team,demonstrating superb condition-ing and heartwarming team uni-ty, fought the bitter cold here tobring the faltering UMass teamto its knees. This padded thelongest winning streak of theseason, an impressive two games.The action took place on theduPont clay courts and the influ-ence of the wind upon play wasminimal this time.

Bob McKinley started thingsoff by polishing Gus Penon (6-2,6-1) while Manny Weiss enjoyeda (6-2, 6-2) victory over AlanGoldberg.

unhappy one the rugby club hashad in the last two seasons. Dueto difficulties with the homefield, the club had to play itstwo games against Williams inWilliamstown, nearly a fo:E-hourdrive.

As usual Tech was outsizedand Williams went out to takeadvantage of this fact from thevery beginning; the game quicklybecame a rough, bruising battle.Williams scored first after fiveminutes ,when a back broke atackle and scored on a twentyyard run. After the mised con-version, Williams held a 3-0 lead.

Tech came back fighting and,after slowly working the ball'downfield, Larry Izzo and PedroTaborga teamed up for one ofthe prettiest tries in the annalsof MIT rugby:
