second experiment is needed. Itwill therefore recommend to theFaculty that a combination read-fag-finals 'period be tried thiswinter. (According to Spitzer, thisReading Period is not yet fixed,and the'catalog gives only an in-dication of its duration.) Duringthis new period, attempts wouldbe made to eliminate the need fortaking two exams on one day. Itthe faculty is unwilling to acceptthis proposal, SCEP asks that theextended Reading P eriod be con-tinned, and that attempts be madeto schedule out major fimls con-flicts during the five day examperiod.
Pass-fail report dueThe SCEP report on'the pass-fail
grading program for Seniors isdue soon. SCEP recommends thatthis program be continued. Thereport leaves it up to the facultywhether to institute a policy of ef-fering pass-fail courses to otherstudents but recommends this es-pecially for freshmen subjects.
At the present time, SCEP hasseveral other projects under way.In particular, they are doing re-search on the system of facultyadvisors, and on improving thecro'ss-registration program withHfarvard.

_ ~~~~By Jay KwunnThe. songs collected' and published by Erwin "Filthy Pierre"
Strauss '65 and subsequently confiscatedt by Dean Jay Hammernesshave been republished and a-e about to be cditributed under a newtitle. Along with a copy of "Ye Olde' MIT Songge Booke," The
t Tech received a letter from, its editor, Kimball Gosseyn, but wasunable to contact him., or even contirm his existence.
The editor's foreword explains both the existence and contentsof the 34-page songbook. According to Gosseyn, the songs are es-sertially the same as those of the confiscated "Filthy Pierre's Songsof MIT," with certain ornissions "in the interest of avoiding por-nography prosecutions."
From All-Tech SingThe sources of the songs are varied, but many are taken from
various All-Tech Sings. Gosseyn also includes several songs by TomLehrer because "1) they are popular at the Institute, and may beconsidered to serve as somewhat of a model for other songs, and2) Lehrer is a professor at MIT."
Gosseyn absolve MIT from any connection with his book andencourages the interested to write the rstimtute as~dng for /nforma-tion concerning the confiscated songbooks. He also says that, al-though his edition is not connected with the Technology Textbook
.Agency, it is published with therir consent. The. TTA is the groupwhich tried to make a profit on foreign textbooks by ignoring Inter-national Copyright Laws.
'Pierre would approve'Although the songbook is dated October 3, Gosseyn is careful
to note that Strauss did not report for rindution until October 10,and says of his book that "I am, crtain Pierre would approve."
The songbooks will be on sale "very shortly" for one dollar,from Kimball Gosseyn, 116 Broadway, Cam.-bridge, Mass. 02142. Inthe foreword, GosSeyn says that he wil offer quantity discounts forthe books, but in his letter states that he has pointed up only 100copies.

From there, the participantswill move on to a discussion ofthe undergraduate experience atMIT, discussing academic, social,residential, and extracurricularfactors. The conference will con-clude after a discussion, intro-duced by Dr. Benson Snyder,Psychiatrist in Chief, about thereactions of students to the MITexperience.
Questions that will probably beraised, and hopefully answered atthe conference include that of thepopular mytdology that an enter-ing high-school graduate hearsabout MIT, and the part that thatmythology plays in shaping anundergraduate's experience. Dis-cussion will also be held on thereasons behind a particular siu-dent's choice of one pattern of lifeor another at the Institute.
The participants will also ask.if studerts are getting what theywant out of their MIT experi-ence, and to what extent the"Tech is Hell" attitude influencesa student's experience at MiT.

Although occasionally descend-ing to sloppy sentimentality, Rob-ert Moore was usually believeablein an unbeiievable role.
The set, a series of impression-istic rocks, was poor, but light-ing personnel achieved a beauti-ful sunset. The play itself lackeda unity of purpose. The audiencelaughed throughout, although itwas not intended to be humorous.
The second playlet, 'Kitchen-ette,' was a wild. parody of theTheatre of the Absurd. The gal-loping pace was effectively keptup by Director Henry Goldberg,whose actors served him well.

Certainly, this logic has implicitin it the notion that students hereare somehow utilizing their brain-power to devise new and bettermethods of destruction. Irdeed,the implication is that the modernuniversity functions essentially asthe intellectual reservoir for thenation's military strength. Surely'no one is to believe that studentsanywhere would pervert the edu-cational process, of their own freewill, in order to act as the agentsof the military. As students, we

PatriciaMoore was the weakest of astrong cast; other than her lec-ture to a member of the audience("What's a nice girl like you do-ing going out with a bum likethat?

should rather concern ourselveswith formulating new and betterdesigns for peace.
One of the first constructivemeasures we could make in thisdirection would be to add an al-ternative to Mr. Carhart's: abol-ish the Selective Service Systemaltogether. Modifying it, as thisnew -draft law shows, will not beenough. To modify it is to placatemiddle class America and tomake it official policy that someAmericans are more equal tharn-,-.others. This is most reprehensibleand must be resisted at everyjunction by reasonable and intelli-gent men everywhere.

In today's hand, the defensetook full advantage of declarer'simperfect play to set an otherwisecold contract. As is obvious fromthe diagram, there are eleventricks off the top in No Trump, nomatter how badly the suits break.North-South missed their bestspot because North rebid 3 Spadesrather than 2 NT, which wouldhave led to a 3 NT contract.
West opened the K of heartswhich declarer took with the Ace,East signalling with the Q. Nextthe Ace and J of spades werecashed revealing the unfortunatet r u m p -break. Now 'declarerstarted playing off his high dia-monds. West trumped the third
round and led his second heart tdEast's 10.
East now made the key de-fensive play. Declarer was al-ready marked for just 7 redcards. If he held 5 spades and Iclub, no defense could set thehand. If, however, he held 4spades and 2 clubs, the contractcould be defeated by giving de-clarer a ruff-and-a- sluff! East,therefore, led the J of hearts. De-clarer and West both discardedclubs and dummy's 10 of trumpswon the trick.
Now, however, declarer was un-able to conveniently return to hishand to draw West's trumps. Heplayed the Ace of clubs, trumpeda club in his hand, and led an-other high diamond -which Westtrumped. But then West estab-lished his last trump as the set-ting trick by leading the Q ofclubs, forcing declarer to ruffwith his last trump.
Where did declarer go astray?His downfall began with the seemingly innocent play of the secondround of trumps. He should haveplayed only one round and thenplayed on diamonds. Then when adefender trumped in, the rernail-ing trumps in one hand could havebeen no longer than his own. (Iftrumps had been 5-1, a diamondruff would have been taken withthe long trump, and if they had

`0 In an -away match with Middle-- bury last Saturday the Tech of-s- fense failed to score while con-
trolling the play and the end re-Lu sult was a 3-0 victory for the' home team. This inability to put
the ball into the net has now costo the varsity kickers three straight0
shutout defeats. Especially frus->2 trating was the fact that thiso year's Middlebury squad was con-
v siderably weaker than the teamD that handed a 4-1 loss to MIT last
year.The game opened with Middle-
bury pressing the attack. TheirI efforts finally paid off with a goal
U late in the first period. Immnedi-I- ately afterwards the defense stiff-u" ened and in the second period the. ball was consistently found in
the Middlebury half of the field.The Tech forwards had frequentopportunities to score but- weren'table to cash any of their shots.The half ended with the Beaversbehind 1-0.
Tech controls ballAgain the Tech soccermen dom-
inated the play during most of thethird period until a Middleburygoal late in the third period tookthe edge out of the MIT play. The-fourth period was evenly played,

even though Middlebury managedto score their final goal.
Injuries prevented three start-ers from making the trip tb Mid-dlebury. However, it is hopedthey will be ready for Wednesdayafternoon's 3:30 home encounterwith Tufts. This match bears ex-tra significance because it will beTech's Greater Boston SoccerLeague opener and because Tufts,along with MIT and Boston Uni-versity, are rated the strongestteams in the league.
The soccer team's record nowstands at 24, but the toughestpart of the schedule is' over andthe future appears- bright for awinning season.

two more victories to their recordX (4-0) by defeating Coast Guardo and Wesleyan 3045-56 on Wesley-

like a study in color grouping with< each team remaining as closea together as possible. WesleyanCOw provided the first (and only) big-- worry, striding two men across
the finish almost side by side foran often potent one-two punch.
MIT took advantage of its usualteam strategy, finishing JohnOwens '70, Ben Wilson '70, Jim
U Yankaskas '69, and Larry PetroI '70, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth,- respectively.
Coast Guard then took its turnat the very .successful bunchingmaneuver, sweeping sevenththrough eleventh places. GeoffHallock '68 followed closely attwelfth, rounding out MIT's fivescorers.
Wesleyan fizzled out, finishinglast on the score sheet after thefinal tally.

It looks like an exceptional yearfor the team, with the effects ofthe twice-a-day beginning of theyear practices finally. starting toshow on the varsity's runninghabits.
The team will attempt to bolsterits 4-0 record twice this. week,running Bosfon College today forMIT's season debut on its homecourse at Franklin Park, and NewHampshire Friday, also at Frank-lin Park. The engineer's familiar-ity with the course hopefully willprove to be just the extra boostneeded to realize a 6-0 mid-season record.
This weekend the varsity sail-ing feam qualified for the NEISAteam racing finals to be held atAUIT on November 14-15. The el-iminations were held at both MITand Tufts. At MIT, Coast Guardand URI qualified, while Tuftswas eliminated. At Tufts, MIT,Yale qualified, with Harvard andDartmouth being eliminated. Eachrace is sailed between two teamsof four boats each.
