The Building 7 Lobby was invaded Wednesday evening by somehundreds of enmeshed gold balloons, dozens of German televisiontechnicians, and a moderate crowd of curious spectators. The eventwas "Son Of Balloon Carpet," a creation of Professor ofArchitecture Otto Peine. Last year, after two abortive attempts atgetting a similar amorphic balloon structure off the ground, theoriginal silver "Balloon Carpet" was launched. This week marks thefourth effort, sponsored significantly and filmed by the German TVnetwork, Saarlandischer Rundfunk, which is doing two 45-minutedocumentaries on Peine's work.

"Son of Balloon Carpet" proved to be a slightly embellishedversion of the original, featuring myriad metallic balloons attachedto a network of cord from which a number of tiny bells dangled.

Reaction ranged from incredulity and dismissal of the art as tooblatant, to Chairman of the MIT Corporation Dr. Howard Johnson'scomment that it was "great." The escaped or left-over balloonsproved to be excellent souvenirs of the glimmering spectacle.

A committee of faculty,administration and students isbeing formed to oversee thetransition to the new require-ment. Blackmer sees thiscommittee as a "fairly perma-nent one which will effectivelyadminister the new require-ment." However, he would liketo "get out of the petition busi-n ess as far as distributionrequirements are concerned."

Blackmer's proposal is cur-rently being circulated amongthe Registrar's Office and facul-ty and administrators in theSchools involved. He is alsolooking for student input, "asthey are the ones who have totake the courses."

While future students willregister with their field of con-centration in the spring of theirsophomore year, present sopho-mores will register for their fieldearly next fall (but after Regis-tration Day).

By Stephen BlattPreparations for implement-

ing the new Humanities, Artsand Social Sciences (HASS)requirement, which will go intoeffect next term, are currentlyunder way, with the School ofHumanities and Social Sciencesdevising administrative proce-dures to handle the new require-ment.

Lists of distribution and elec-tive courses have been preparedand will appear in the1 97 4- 1975 Catalogue, DeanDonald Blackmer of the Schoolof Humanities and Social Sci-ences has drawn up a proposalapplying the new requirement tostudents presently enrolled, andthe fifteen fields of concentra-tion are being organized.

The new HASS requirementir/cludes 8 term subjectS, total-ing at least 72 units, in thehumanities, arts and social sci-ences, with a distribution require-ment of 3 subjects drawn fromthree'separate fields, a concen-tration requirement in which thestudent takes three or fourcourses in one field, with thespecific program worked out bythe student in consultation withhis adviser, and the remainingcourses chosen from an electivesubject list.

Blackmer's proposal forimplementing the new require-ment includes the followingpoints:

- Students who have com-pleted "at least three subjectsfrom the present combinedfreshman and sophomore listsshall be considered to havecompleted the distribution por-tion of the requirnement." Thosewho have not completed threesuch courses would have to"complete the deficiency withthe necessary number of distri-bution subjects."

- Present sophomores willonly have to take three subjectsin a field of concentrat on, al-though freshmen and incomingstudents may have to take foursubjects in certain fields (to bedecided by the various fields).This is consistent with the pre-sent requirements for upperclassconcentration, which sopho-mores presumably may havestarted.

- Present juniors will beasked "to complete a specialform identifying the eight ormore subjects they have com-pleted (or plan to complete) infulfillment of the requirement

"Ninety percent of the effort isin applying technological fixes."Hie said that such fixes are ma-neuvers to achieve fast but lim-ited results of which, unfortu-nately, few have long term posi-tive effects.

In addition to the publicignorance of technological insuf-ficiency, 'Aigrain cited otherallies of the technological fix,including "the way the normalpolitician discounts the future."He noted that politicians tend tothink irf terms of the next elec-tion, and back strict standardsand regulation which force in-dustries into short term techno-logical fixes.

"Not all environmentalists arealtruists," Aigrain said. Heclaimed that many environ-mentalists are motivated by per-sonal'image-building and protec-tion of private interests. "Thosewho do the best job are thosewho are trying to do the best forhumanity," he said.

"Because of a number ofsocial, institutional, and politicalpressures, a lot of the ap-proache s to the problem of re-ducing the bad side effects oftechnology are going the wrongway," said Aigrain. "This is notnecessary, we can do better," hesaid, suggesting "a lot moreattention be given in this institu-tion toward real technical solu-tions and maybe a little lesstoward technological fixes."

By Mike McNameeLast-minute efforts by the

Department of Health, Educa-tion, and Welfare to distribute$60 million in federal grantmoney to students were unsuc-cessful, according to- an HEWspokesperson.

According to Ms. JeanneParks, public information officerat HEW, "we still have about$45 million left." in the BasicEducational Opportunities GrantProgram, despite extensions ofthe deadline for application tothe program. The BEOG grants,which average at about $260 perstudent, are aimed at lower in-come first year students at col-leges and vocational schools.

HEW announced early inMarch that the program, whichhas funded with $122 million infederal funds last June, was bad-ly undersubscribed. At thattime, HEW Txtended the dead-lines for application to the pro-gram until April 1.

The attempt to get moreapplicants was only a partialsuccess, however, and the pro-gram only distributed a total of300,000 grants. Almost 500,000students applied, Parks said.

Parks told The Tech thatHEW is now faced with theproblem of distributing the $45million surplus. "According tothe establishing legislation, wehave to distribute it among thestudents who already havegrants," shze said. "We are askingCongress to allow us to applythe money to next year's pro-gram."

If Congress orders HEW todistribute the money to the cur-rent grant-recipients, the averagegrant will be increased to almost$400; Parks told The Tech thatthe department probably couldnot distribute the money "untilnearly September."

....... MIT financial aid, officers ,tld,

The Tech (March 12) that theextension of the applicationdeadline had little effect onMIT's financial aid situation.Only about 60 MIT students

-could meet the exacting stan-dards that the BEOG programrequired, according to AssociateDirector of Financial Aid DanielT. Langdale, and all of thesestudents had applied for andreceived grants prior-to the ex-tension.

"We made a careful attemptto make sure that any studentwho was eligible for the grantsknew about the program,"Langdale said.

The BEOG program will bechanging next year, Parks said,and she expects a larger numberof students to take advantage ofthe grants. "We've already re-ceived 200,000 applications fornext year's program," she said."This is probably due to morepeople learning about the pro-gram after last year's experi-ence."

BEOG grants will be availablefor both freshmen and sopho-mores next year, and Langdaleexpects that the MIT studentswho have grants this year willreceive grants next year assophomores. The standards forthe grants, which were criticizedby many financial aid officers asbeing "too strict," have alsobeen liberalized, which mightlead to better to usage of theprogram, Langdale said.

"We aren't sending any mate-rial about BEOG to acceptedapplicants yet," Langdale toldThe Tech. "MIT likes to keepthe matter of a college choiceclearer for the student by notoffering spec'.fic financial aidprograms as incentive before thechoice is made." The Institutehas had "no problem" with com-municating the program to stu-.ents. in .th, past, Langdale said.

someone at MIT very often de-pends on who that person wasworking for when he made thediscovery due to MIT's regula-tions on patents and royalties.

For example, if that personwere working on research spon-sored by someone outside theInstitute, explained ArthurSmith, General Counsel for theoffice of sponsored programs,the ownership of that inventionwould depend on the contractsthat MIT has with that com-pany. Smith said that in suchcases the Institute likes to gettitle to the invention, with thecompany receiving a royalty freelicense to use it.

"The sponsor is only reallycontracting for the work thatthe person does on that pro-ject," Smith explained, "theproduct is just a by-productabove and beyond what thesponsors are paying for. We feelthat as a non-profit organizationwe're better able to facilitate thewidest possible use for such aninvention."

Smith stated that not allMIT's contracts with other com-panies resulted in Instituteownership, however, and he usedthe National Aeronautics andSpace Administration (NASA) asan example. "In order to getfunding from NASA, we have toagree to give them title to what-ever our people working withthem come up with. If we canprove to them, however, that our

owning the product would bebetter for the public, -then wecan ask them to waive theirclaim to title. So far we've been100% successful in our requestsfor such a waiver but there's noguarantee that that average isgoing to continue."

Another organization thatSmith mentioned as having theright to decide whether or not itwill keep the rights to a certaininvention was the NationalScience Foundation (NSF).Smith added however, that"we've been able to convincethem that we are better suited tohandle an invention, and they'venow agreed to turn all such titlesover to us."

According to Smith, MITdivides inventions done withoutthe aid of an outside sponsorinto two categories, dependingon whether or not the inventormade "significant use of funds,space or facilities administeredby the Institute" in developinghis product. The payment ofsalaries from unrestricted funds

Ezekiel. added that as a scien-tific tool the laser holds just asmuch promise. As one example,Ezekiel said that the use of lasersin spectroscopy had resulted inan increase in accuracy, "sogreat that nobody knows whatto do with it . . . With the capa-bilities that we have now, there'sno telling what we might discov-er. "

"No matter how you' look atit," Ezekiel concluded, "a laseris still just a source of light. Butit's a light source with so manypossibilities ... I think lasers aregoing to play a large role inthings to come."

By Jules MollereWork in the "science" of

lasers may be slowing but notthe pursuit of its applications,according to Shaoul Ezekiel,associate professor in Aeronau-tics and Astronautics and headof the Laser Application groupin the Research Laboratory'ofElectronics.

Speaking at an Aeronautics &Astronautics Research Labora-tory of Electronics General semi-nar, Ezekiel said that $300 mil-lion is currently being spent onlaser research, "and especially itsapplications."

Ezekiel said that the militaryis "most probably where a lot of

this money is going. I don'tknow if'they are actually plan-ning to use lasers as offensive ordefenisve weapons and if I did Imost probably wouldn't be ableto talk about it. With so muchmoney floating about, though, Iguess someone's thinking aboutit."

Ezekiel touched on otherpossible military uses for laserssuch as tracking and range find-ing and then moved on to whathe termed"more peaceful" appli-cations.

Among'these, Ezekiel citedthe,, possible use of lasers inpollution sensing. "Work is nowgoing on at Lincoln Labs on

monitoring with lasers the pollu-tants in automobile exhaust.Thus you can very easily tellwhat they're dumping into theatmosphere.

Ezekiel said that a system ofsuch monitors placed in a citycould keep a 24 hour watch onpollution "and tell us to put onour gas masks when things getbad."

Ezekiel also stated that laserscould very possibly replacemodern communications as weknow it. "The use of lasers couldmake .communications muchcheaper and more efficient thanit is now. Coupled with low lossfibers, lasers could be the com-

The band that finally appeared onstage differed from the Crosswinds lineupin that Glenn Ferris played trombone,Milcho Leviev replaced George Duke onkeyboards, and Alex Blake contributedhis bass lines. The repertoire consisted ofthe entire Crosswinads album, plus a fewcuts from Spectrum. The latter wereperfectly executed in double time, andwere tremendously enhanced by theexpanded instrumentation. Theremainder of the concert was superb. TheCrosswinds studio effects were gone, butthe music was .strengthened by theextended solo contributions of each ofthe musicians.

The Brecker brothers were at theirbest, and the bass solo brought AlexBlake out of the shadows and far beyondthe average bassist. I was most impressedby Ferris' trombone solo on "Savannahthe Serene." His beautiful melodic linesmellowed the trombone almost to thepoint where it approximated a Frenchhorn. Ferris is the only player I've everheard who makes the trombone soundlike it's a trivial instrument to play.

It's unfortunate that JohnAbercrombie is relatively unknown, forhe is the only guitarist who can equal thetechnical prowess of John McLaughlin.At the concert, he used his ability quitesparingly, to give more variety to hissolos. But when he cut loose, I couldclose my eyes and see McLaughlinstanding there.

The concert also spotlightedpercussionist Lee Pastora, a strangecharacter who looked like a refugee fromGreenwich Village, circa 1963. The varietyof sounds he produced from a mere triadof congas was truly amazing. Playing withevery part of his upper limbs, he addedflavorful counter-rhythms to the music.in a duet with Cobham, Cobham played acomplicated barrage of rhythms, Pastorafollowing him exactly.

Ah, yes, Cobham's solo. Having seenhim many times before with Mahavishnu,I was convinced that he had attained thelimit of percussive ability. When heplayed his solo at Sanders, I was amazedto see that he'd improved two-fold.Cobham alternated from displayinghis usual torrent of superhumantechniques to a disjointed, subdued seriesof melodic riffs.

Aside from the horrendous acousticsof Sanders Theatre, the only drawback tothe concert was the size of the band. Themusicians played well together, but thepresence of eight virtuosi made it verydifficult for each musician to solo- asmuch as the listener would like. It wouldbe fabulous if this band stays together,but it might be difficult due to the largenumber of high-quality musicians.

who loses his sense of reality when he iscaught behind his own false images. Thesemimes contain a depth and impact thatwords could never express as well

Marcel Marceau could easily have beena ballet dancer rather than a mime. Hisgraceful movements are beautiful andawesome to watch. He creates objects fromnothing with a few deft motions of thehand and, just as quickly, they disappearinto the air again. His characterizationsare flawlessly perceptive, down to mostminute detail, and are endless in range ofcharacterization. He produces moods andexpresses thoughts so well with his silencethat words become unnecessary, evendetrimental, to the message.

A Marcel Marceau performance is likenothing else; it is an experience to witnessone man's genius, an exercise of theimagination, and a delight to the soul

-Billy Cobham, hiding, as usual, behind his maze of drums and cymbals

"Spanish Moss," which is divided into fourparts. The first section, "Spanish Moss,"opens with synthesized surf effectsblending into a quick bl'I subdued piecepossessing an eerie horn melody. Themost interesting aspect of this fine opus isthe creative interplay between Cobhamand Pastora. They produce interestingeffects and still maintain the steadyrhythm of the piece, which is difficult aseveryone is playing in 17/8 time."Savannah the Serene" is part two, aquiet melodious piece featuring aspectacular trombone solo. "Storm" ispart three, and Coblham's solo, atremendous one indeed. Studio effectsenter here, where Cobham's drumming isphase-shifted against a background ofsynthesized wind. The piece closes with'Flash Flood." a boisterous, uptempocoda featuring a fine trumpet solo by R.Brecker, and a similar versatile expositionby Abercrombie.

"The Pleasant Pheasant" opens sidetwo, and allows Cobham to orchestratethe horm section in a delightfully funkyR&B fashion. It's necessary to boost thevolume to fully appreciate "Heather," anextremely quiet cut which spotlights aserene electric piano solo by Duke. It isclearly Cobham's finest composition. Thealbum closes with a simple, funky tunecalled "Crosswinds," which centersaround Abercrombie's extended guitarsolo.

I am truly amazed that Cobham couldproduce 'an album of such high quality.His compositions are so harmonically andmelodically complete that it's hard tobelieve that Cobham is indeed apercussionist. The selections on thisalbum equal or surpass anything writtenby Larry Coryell,' John McLaughlin, orsome of Cobham's other contemporaries,with the possible exception of ChickCorea.

Cobham is also an excellent arranger.The horns are harmonized coherently,and the studio effects are tastefullyutilized, but never overused. Moreover,the versatile musicians adapt theirimprovisational styles to each piece,creating a variety of musical impressions.The major fault of the album lies in thedisappointment one feels when-noticingthat each side is only sixteen minutes inlength. Keeping this in mind, I can onlysay without equivocation that Crosswinds

is the best jazz album I've heard in two-years.

After an hour of waiting outdoors andan additional hour of stomaclhing a trulyhorrendous warmup band, a slightlydisgruntled crowd was anxiously awaitingBilly Cobham at Sanders Theatre a weekago last Sunday.

serve as a pleasant break from studyingfor finals.

The MIT Schola Cantorum gave thesecond concert of this, its premiere sea-son, on March 19 in Kresge Auditorium.The group seems to have reached anaccommodation, or at least a state oftruce, with this unpromising location fora chamber chorus, and to have developeda better vocal blend as well. Both of thesewere aided by the presence of orchestralaccompaniment on this program (the firstwas mainly without accompaniment)-theorchestra, with Maynard Goldman asconcertmaster, was quite fine.

In the first half, the Mozart F MajorMissa Brevis showed immediately thecompact, well-focused sound that theSchola has developed. Bach's Cantata 196and Cantata 150 were also well sung,though I occasionally disagree with JohnOliver's ideas of "long lines" in Bach. Thechorus has come a long way in one year,and promises to continue as a valuableelement of the MIT musical community.

John Oliver led the MIT Glee Clubwith the Mount Holyoke Concert Choirin a program consisting of Mozart'sRegi-na Coeli K 276, Bach's Cantata No. 4,and Haydn's Missa Cellensis, on April 28.The Bach cantata, Christ lag in Todesban-den, is justly one of his most popular,featuring seven movements all based onthe same familiar chorale tune. All fourof the soloists were quite good, althoughthe bass had some trouble with the lowend of the wide range demanded by thefifth movement. The soprano' section wasrather colorlessand shouty in the upperregister, and sopranos and tenors sufferedoccasional pitch troubles. Some elementsof the interpretation (dramatic decrescen-di,' extremely legato singing) that I per-sonally consider overly romantic, butthey were effectively executed. The chor-al singing was better in the Haydn,especially in terms of better focus andsupport in the sopranos.

The MIT Choral Society will performiruckner's E Minor AMass and Hindemith's-Apparebit Repentina Dies this Sundayafternoon at 3 pm in Kresge Auditorium.The Hindemith, a particularly difficultwork, repays the effort needed to prepareit for performance with a richness ofsound and of emotion.

The MIT Symphony Orchestra's con-cert on March 16th was even more of asuccess than I had anticipated. MarcusThompson's viola playing in the BlochSuite Hebraique was truly remarkable-itis not an exaggeration to say that I havenever heard a richer or more beautifulsound from this most underrated of thestringed instruments-and the orchestra'scontribution was unobtrusively profes-sional. John Harbison's Incidental Musicwas effectively performed, with particu-larly lovely sounds in the soft, wide-spaced chords, though some rough edgeswere evident in the rapid jagged figura-tions. The only prior performance of thisscore was given by a very small chamberensemble, and though that performancewas somewhat more precise in the fast-moving sections than the MIT Sym-phony's, the larger ensemble was muchmore atmospheric and effective else-where. The Mahler First Symphony was,as expected, a real tour de force, and allsections of the Symphony acquittedthemselves nobly. Balances and phrasingsparticularly showed the effect of inten-sive rehearsal and careful planning.

The final concert of the year for theMIT Symphony will be held in KresgeAuditorium at 8:30 pm on May 18, andwill include Haydn's Sinfonia Concer-tante for oboe, bassoon, violin and cello,Ravel's La Valse, and Beethoven's Pas-toral Symphony. The Boston Symphonyperformed the Haydn earlier this yearunder Seiji Ozawa. The last movement ofthe Sinfonia Concertante is interruptedseveral times by a violin recitative on atheme, and in a manner, surprisinglyforeshadowing the finale of the Beet-hoven Ninth Symphony.

Silenceis olden

Marcel Marceau, the genius of.pantomime, appeared for two weeks last

month at the Shubert Theatre and heexceded even the highest of expectations.Throughout the more than two hours ofsilence each show, the audience wascaptivated and thoroughly entertained bymoments of satire, philosophy, andinsight into what human beings really are.

There were two types of pantomime -those featuring "Bip" and the ones calledstyle pantomimes. Bip is, of course, thelovable character created by Marcel who,with his open-faced optimism andsensitivity, portrays emotions andsituations common to everyone. WhetherBip is learning to skate or mingling withthe rich at a society party, he faces itwith a determination and innocence thathas endeared him to audiences all overthe world. Says Marcel of Bip, 'Bip, asilent actor, comical, looking at the depthof man, a dreamer awake, his heart full ofvague recollections of visible and invisiblephantoms, pitiful, nostalgic for thesublime, always chasing after an ideal,prolongs the visions of my childhood."These mimes are the simpler of the twotypes, with easy to grasp situations andconcepts, and are highly entertaining.

However, it's the more philosophicalmimes that show the true scope andimagination of the man, and leave onewondering look after the laughter at Biphas died down. "The Creation Of TheWorld" shows with poetic movement theorigin of the world and creates for theaudience the full picture of paradise."Youth, Maturity, Old Age, And Death"explains with amazing simplicity ofmovement the transformation, physicallyand spiritually, that age produces on man.And "The Mask Maker" tells of a man

Billy Cobhamseems to be the most active of the groupat the present time, and has just releasedhis second solo effort, Crosswinds. Thealbum is a tremendous improvement overhis last recording, Spectrum, which was aweakly-structured collection of simplemusic, held together by Cobham's andJan Hammer's solos.

Theregatta, named for the well-known MIT Sailing Master, waswon by Radcliffe in light shiftywinds on Saturday and a steadysouthwesterly on Sunday.

Team captain ShelleyBerstein '74, sailing with crewBarbara Belt '77, tooklow-pointhonors in A-Division, while MaryAnne Bradford '74 and EllenSchmidt '77 co-skippered to asecond place in 'B.'

Mary Ann Bradford '74 (left) and Ellen Schmidt '77 (right)co-skippered MIT's B-division boat to a second place finish in lastweekend's Gerry Reed Invitational Trophy Regatta.

By Mark SuchonAfter MIT's three other light-

weight boats placed second toCornell Saturday, MIT's first var-sity took matters into its ownhands, soundly defeating the BigRed by a length.

After the earlier defeats byCornell (although Coast Guardand Columbia were handledeasily by the JVs and freshmen),the first varsity boat (cox, MitchGreen '75; stroke, RalphNauman '74; Henry Heck '75;Rusty Saunders '76, Dan Greene'74; Andy Moehlenbrock '74;Bernie Brooks '75, Gary Eadens'75; John Wendell '76) waspsyched for the feature raceand felt obligated to win it.

The crew rowed a first quar-ter that Coach Bill Miller de-scribed as a "goo'd" and "deter-mined" 500 meters. They had alength lead over Cornell after1000 meters, and an added halflength at 1500. The Engineerswon the race in a time of 6:25.6,bettering Cornell's 6:30.0, Col-umbia's 6:-33.8, and CoastGuard's 6:35.9.

MIT's freshmen boats had abad day, as the second boat wasrouted (Cornell 6:53.8, MIT7:06.5, Coast Guard 7:18.0) andthe first boat lost by three-tenths of a second.

Rowing the closest race ofthe day, the first frosh did notseem to have overcome its weak-ness, the first 1000 meters.Though its time of 6:37 wasmuch better than Coast Guard's7:05.5 and Colunmbia's 7:11.6, itwas edged by Cornell's 6:36.7.

Similarly, the JVs beat CoastGuard by eleven seconds, butwere defeated by over a lengthby Cornell. A prominent reasonfor MIT's defeat was the loss ofMike Neff '76 for the season dueto a soccer injury. Another rea-son was that MIT expended toomuch energy in the beginning,rowing 331/2 strokes per minuteto Cornell's 32.

Tomorrow the lights journeyto Philadelphia to meet Pennand Navey, looking for a win thatwill improve MIT's seeding inthe E.A.R.C. sprints the follow-ing week.

By Dave DobosLast Thursday, MIT's track

team highlighted by freshmanFrank Richardson's nationalqualifying time in the 3-mile,placed fifth in the annual Great-er Bostbn College Track Meetheld at BC. Powerful Harvardracked up 151 points to easilyoutdistance runnerup North-eastern with 53.

Two days later, WPI whippedMIT, 89-65, at WorceSter, hand-ing the Engineers their fourthloss without a win. SophomoreGreg Hunter's 45'4" shot puttoss was the bright spot of theday for MIT.

Rich Okine '77 won the twohurdle events for 10 points, andteammate Don Wesson '76 tooksecond in both to add 6 more.

Richardson and Co-captain JohnPearson '74 also scored 6 each,Pearson winning the hammerand placing third in the discusand Richardson running awaywith the 2-mile and picking up athird in the mile. Co-captainGary' Wilkes '75 won the 220,ran third in the 100, and an-chored the 440-relay for 71/4points.

. In the GBC's Wilkes placedthird in the 220 'and anchoredthe 440 relay team of PaulKuzmenko '77, George Chiesa'74, and Jim Banks '76 to anoth-er third. Richardson qualifiedfor the National College Divisiontrack meet with his 14:24 clock-ing in the 3-mile, besting thetime of 14:30 needed. A1Carlson '74 showed his bestform of the year, placing 4th inthe 6-mile.

Freshman Jim Williams andRich Okine placed fifth in thepole vault and intermediatehurdles, respectively, while themile relay team of Chiesa,Banks, Okine, and Jeff Baerman'76 picked up a fourth to roundout the scoring for MIT.
