By Bert Halstead(Second in a series of two)j

The Technology and Culture,founded for the second time in1971, has been in a constant stateof self-examination and changesince that time.

During its first year of opera-tion, in addition to its publiclecture series, the Seminar spon-sored a series of smaller meetingsin which a group of about twodozen faculty and students tookpart. The purpose of these meet-ings was to determine "what theSeminar should be about,"according to the Reverend JohnCrocker, Episcopal chaplain atMIT and the Seminar's de factoa d ministrator. Typically, thefirst quarter of a meeting wastaken up by an address suggest-ing a particular point of view,and the remainder was devotedto a discussion of it.

After this review, it becameclear that Technology and Cul-ture Seminar had succeeded inattracting two kinds of peoplewith basically different goals.

One group was dubbed the"instrumentalists." Their "pri-mary interest lies in facing up tothe many difficult and oftenintractable problems facing-oursociety and our world. Theindustrialization process, a rapid-ly developing technologicalpower in a variety of areas, and apolitical economy dependent onunending growth" are amongtheir concerns. Out of their deli-berations grew a seminar seriesfor 1972-73 entitled The Futureof Progress.

The other group are the"philosophers." They "are con-cerned about the status of sci-

ence as a way of understandingand dealing with the instrumen-talists as part of the problemrather than as part of the solu-tion ... " These issues were thefocus of another seminar seriesthat began in the fall of 1972:Images of the Human.

The next June (1973), a sub-committee of the main Seminarcommittee met under the chair-manship of Professor KennethHoffman, head of the Depart-ment of Mathematics. Theircharge was to work out wherethe Seminar ought to go next.

The principal problem discov-ered by these investigators wasthat many of the seminars"lacked focus and continuity"because of their "one-time"character. They named the prin-cipal challenge facing the Semi-nar thus.

How do groups of peoplecome together to discusseffectively - to frame andinterpret rigorous argumentsabout - the complex issuessurrounding the impact oftechnology on the future ofman and society?

Among the postitive accom-plishments they saw to date:

-"It has provided an interde-partmental forum for seriousdiscussion of some of the mostpressing issues facing the futureof society and MIT."

-"It has helped to raise thelevel of awareness (and under-standing) of these issues."

-"It has brought to the MITcampus outstanding sepculativethinkers not usually represented

By Dave DanfordIn one fell swoop, MIT is

increasing by 500% the totalnumber of women who haveparticipated in the Sloan FellowsManagement Program.

This is not, however, as radi-cal a change as it sounds. Priorto this year, only onewoman had participated in thetwelve-month Management Mas-ters program for executives in itsforty-three year history. Thisyear's program will include fivewomen among its fifty members.

The rarity of women in theSloan Fellows Program has beendue to a nation-wide numbersdilemma, according to AssociateDean for Teaching ProgramsPeter P. Gil. "The pool fromwhich to draw them [women] is

thin," he explained. "For a longperiod of time, women have notmoved up into managementranks."

Gil characterized the situa-tion as "a catching-up process,"and predicted, "We're going tosee a lot more women in man-agement programs."

Letters to alumniIn an effort to stimulate the

catching up, Gil sent 40,000letters to MIT alumni asking forhelp in identifying and attractingwomen for the Sloan FellowsProgram. Gil has also contactedthe presidents of many compa-nies, seeking female prospectsfor the program.

Gil has taken on a femalegraduate of the Sloan School'sMaster program as an assistant.

Leslie Clift, who finished a twoyear program at the School lastSeptember, joined Gil, "to en-courage and counsel youngwomen to enter the field ofmanagement."

Clift has traveled to over adozen colleges to talk to under-graduate women, college place-ment officers, and professorsabout management. She has metlittle overt resistance to the ideaof women in marnagement, shesaid, but has found a definiteneed to relate management, as abroad multidisciplinary field, towhat undergraduate women havebeen doing.

Dorms: rent up, rush barredRent up $138 next year Rush rules proposed;

DormCon votes May 8By Bill Conklin

A new set of rush rules for dormitories has beenproposed to eliminate conflicts between fraterni-ties and dormitories.

The Dormitory Council (DormCon) will voteWednesday on the new regulations, which restrictdormitory rushing. next fall, according to TomMartin'76, DormCon Chairman.

The rules, drawn up in conjunction with theInterfraternity Conference, (IFC) are:

1) Anyone fromfn any living group may contactany freshman in any dormitory during rush week,but the fraternity members cannot rush within thedorm.

2) Any dorm social events planned for Fridayor Saturday night of rush week will be only forresidents, rather than to attract freshmen fromelsewhere, and no advertisement of these activitiesis allowed until after the Freshman Picnic.

3) A Mediation Board shall be establishedconsisting of the IFC Chairman, Rush Chairman,and IFC Judicial Committee Chairman from thefraternities and the DormCon Chairman, R/OCoordinator, and DormCon Judiciary CommitteeChairman representing the dormitories. The boardwill hear complaints between dormitories andfraternities.

These rules will somewhat parallel the IFC'srush rules, according to Martin.

"In the past year there was some conflictbetween dorms and fraternities over rush proce-dures," said Martin. "We want to eliminate the badfeelings and obtain better cooperation between thetwo groups."

"We're expected to rush 47% of the freshman,and we can't do it if the dorms rush," said KenBachman '75, !FC Rush Chairman.

due to heat, electricityBy Bill Conklin

Dorm rates for next year will be up an averageof 18% for housing and 15% for food services.

The announcement came at the May 3 meetingof the Dormitory Council.

"I think rates have gone up more than any of uswould have liked," commented H. EugeneBrammer, Director of Dining and Housing.

The primary reasons given by the rate reviewcommittee for the increases were the large increasein the cost of utilities and the rise of food prices.

According to the committee's report, the priceof heat went up 121%, electricity 64%, and food20% with a projected increase of 15% for nextyear.

Of the $138 average rent increase over last year,64% was said to be due to utilities' increase.

The committee, made up of representativesfrom the Dean's Office, Housing and Food Ser-vices, and each of the undergraduate dorms, setnext year's housing rates by establishing a "qualitydifferential" for each dorm based on a qualitynalysis completed last year. Using Senior House

is a base, East Campus and Baker were given a $50Differential, Burton and McCormick $200, andMacGregor $220, (see table below). Bexley, whichs outside the regular dormitory system, was set-qual to Senior House. In addition, each house will:e charged individually for desk service.

Summer rates were raised an average of $10.Overloading

The probability of overcrowding in certaindorms was one factor figured into the differentials,since some dorms are more likely to be over-crowded than others, "We tried to set a fair rentfor the rooms," said Ken Browning, Assistant

(Continued from page 1)The rules were brought up

and discussed at length byDormCon members and IFCrepresentatives last Friday.

Most dorm representativeseventually agreed to the rules.Many, however, strongly ob-jected to the establishment offines as the means of enforc-ement, a suggestion made byIFC Chairman Peter Mancuso'75. Mancuso argued that with-out enforcement, the ruleswould have little or no effect.

Michael Levine '75 of Seniorhouse took an opposing view."Thle imposing of fines wouldviolate a basic emotional feelingin the dormitory system,"argued Levine. "No one is out toshaft the fraternities."

"Dorms aren't in the businessof piling up a lot of people,"added McCormick HousemasterSteve Senturia. "They just havea goal of filling."

"I don't want to say whetheror not we should have fines,"said Ken Browning, AssistantDean for Student Affairs. "Butthere have been lots of changesin the five years since rush weekwas started in its present form.We need a reaffirmation of thewillingness to cooperate. I thinkwe need to come up with someground rules to abide by topreserve the delicate balance."

Browning also advocated aplan to hold continued meetingsbetween all the houses and theIFC through the summer to ironout disagreements over plans forrush week.

(Continued from page 1)on our faculty."

The main deficiencies theyperceived:

-"There is a need for morein-depth, long-term discussion ofissues."

-"There is a need to providemore time (possibly through theuse of credit) for students toparticipate.

-"There is a need to moveinto closer contact with specificresearch and educational issuesat MI'F so as to (i) provide abetter focus for discussion of thegeneral matters of concern tothe Seminar; (ii) increase thenumber of faculty and staff whobring a reflective approach tobear on their own work; and (iii)contribute to the education ofstudents who will be betterequipped to deal with the rangeof issues we have loosely de-scribed as 'science and techno-logy in a social context.'"

In order to help fulfill theseneeds, the committee proposedthe establishment of "a visitingscholars program focused around

ask the right questions.. .human questions on the side ofhuman freedom."

Before coming to MIT, hespent eleven years as the Epis-copal chaplain at Brown Univer-sity. There, he says, there is a"completely different ethos -

..the humanists are in the saddle."Crocker spent much of his timeat Brown trying to get humaniststo listen to what the scientistshad to say.

Among the missions he seesfor the Seminar at MIT is to "getat some modern crises," such asthe fact that science and tech-nology have a bad name in manyquarters today, whichl has re-sulted in a sort of "identitycrisis" for the scientist.

Hoffman has some observa-tions of his own. He sees theSeminar as a "loosely-knit coali-tion" with some common con-cers, among them "things(ways of knowing, modes ofanalysis, different types of intel-lectual frameworks) people useto relate to the world." MIT isproducing "engineers going outinto the world" and it is urgentto consider "what should be inthe intellectual tool kit of themodern engineer."

A common attitude is thatscientists and engineers should"care" and be "concerned"about the social implications oftheir work. Hoffman makes thepoint that "caring is not enough- it takes more than that...where are the intellectual under-pinnings" for understanding thecomplicated issues that arise?

If the Technology and Cul-ture Seminar succeeds in spread-ing greater understanding, or atleast awareness,- of these under-pinnings, then its participantswill all be very gratified.

the topic of "The Future ofHumanity and Human Society."Outstanding scholars, of thetype who have been invited togive Technology and Culture lec-tures in the past, would bebrought to MIT for a month ormore. Funds from the Provost'soffice were procured for thispurpose.

The Technology and CultureSeminar has continued its pro-gram of public lectures this year.Furthermore, several smallgroups have been meeting, moreor less within the framework ofthe Seminar, to discuss topics ofspecial interest.

Asked why he puts so muchtime and energy into organizingthe Seniinar, Crocker explainsthat "MIT is one of the mostextraordinary places I've everbeen in my life." Althoughemployed by the EpiscopalChurch, not MIT, Crocker is afreshman advisor and conducts afreshman seminar.

"From my perspective, Iunderstand this to be an authen-tic ministry," he says. "I try to

"Business needs all the skilledhuman resources of this nation.Women are one of the lunder-utilized resources," said Clift."I'm hoping women, by bringinginto play their own skills, cancontribute in management," shecommented.

Elaborating on the special tal-ents women bring to their jobs,she said, "Whether it's learned orinherent, by the time you're 24,you're somewhat different frommen. You have a different out-look on life."

Gil, as well, stressed that awoman "should not lose heridentity as a woman in order tosucceed."

Gil said that despite culturalobstacles. "There's no intellec-tual or biological reason forwomen not being successful inmanagement."

Concerning the future ofwomen in the higher levels ofbusiness, Clift said, "I hope theywill be in positions that will leadthem to decisions that will affectthis country." She predicted,"Women entering the field ofbusiness will definitely changethe way things are run, eventu-ally."

When questioned about Cambridge'santi-student registration policy in 1971,the Election Commission's chief clerktold The IVew York Timzes (7/22/71,p.2 1), "'Why, we are in a place here wherethe students would take over." While it isprobable that Cambridge will never be-come another Berkeley, it is interestingthat the last two city elections weredecided by margins of 37 and 83 votes. Inshort, in a city of 50,000 registeredvoters, much depends on the attitudes ofits largely-unregistered population of20,000 _students. After June 1, it's intheir hands.

in bringing to court the first suits -bystudent plaintiffs, challenging the dis-criminatory tests and procedures em-ployed by the Cambridge registrars. Shehas testified at the trials in these cases.And she has experienced the bitter frus-tration of students who still wait, yearslater, as the litigation drags on.

While it is true that ComnmissionerScheir sits on, the Board of ElectionCommissioners with three older faces,each of whose termns expire in succeedingyears, a working majority has apparentlyalready begun to emerge. This tone of" reform" on the Election Commissionwill be considerably reinforced byanother major factor.

On June 1, 1974, the state's UniformVoter Registration Procedures Act of1973 takes effect. Signed by the governorlast Dlecemnber, the new law will stan-dardize the registration process through-out Massachusetts. Instead of answeringdegrading oral questions, a registrant willneed only to fill out an "affidavit ofregistration." This simple form will re-quest only name, address, previous resi-dence if any, date of birth, and occupa-tion. By signing the affidavit "under thepains and penalties of perjury," ancipossibly presenting some minimal identi-fication, the registrant will become aregistered vo ter in Cambridge. Disqualifi-cation can only occur because of the factsin the affidavit itself (e.g., insufficientage), and the new voter's sworn statementcan be challenged only in a semni-criminalproceeding, requiring a prior showing ofprobable cause by the registrars, a formalcomplaint, and a summons served on thechallenged voter in person.

The system is airtight, and the processis simple - no sarcastic comments fromaging clerks, no need to return for in-terminable hearings, no embarrassingquestions about one's personal life.

-Can it be true -will it actually happenin Cambridge? Although time-alone willtell, the indications are that the ElectionCommission is planning to implement theaffidavit system properly. CommissionerScheir has made strict enforcement of thenew law her top priority,, and even theelection clerks seem to be getting themessage.

But another question is perhaps evenmore important: will Cambridge studentstake advantage of this opportunity toregister here? The 1974 state elections,for example, feature a crucial Democraticprimary fight for governor next Septem-ber 11) between Mike Dukakis, a progres-sive former legislator who authored theCommonwealth's pioneering no-fault

@ Tech But the governor and many of the people-with power in Wyoming would rather seebusiness money coming in than naturegoing on.

I wonder though, why did Trhe Techrun such an article? What -does the aver-age MIT student care about it? Wyomingis thousands of miles away, it has moreantelope than people, and besides, theEast needs the energy. If we use the coal,it would case our situation - we won'thave to develop alternative energy sour-ces. We could fill the bill of increasingelectric needs for our electric pencilsharpeners and can openers and hotcombs. That the big energy companiesgrow bigger and richer and the land, air,and water of that far-distant land growpoorer will have to be accepted; after all,you can't stand in the-way of progress.

By David E. Sullivan"When did you decide to make Cam-

bridge your home?""What have you done to divorce your-

self from your former domicile?""To what extent are you financially

self-supporting?"'What have you done in Cambridge

that you wouldn't have done if you werejust a student here?"

For at least three and a half long years,every university student who has attempt-ed to register to vote in Carimbridge hasfound that he or she must answer theseand many other similarly fantastic andobscure questions. After June 1, 1974, itcan never legally happen again.

Since January 1971, when it issued itsinfamous statement entitled "ResidenceRequirements for Voting in Cambridge,"the Cambrdge Election Commission hasmanaged to prevent all but a very few oftens of thousands of students from cast-ing ballots in the city. The ElectionCommission has been successful as muchbecause of its complex administrativeprocess requiring multiple hearings, asbecause of its many outright denials ofregistration. -Now, for at least two impor-tant reasons, it finally'appears that regis-tration will be possible - even easy - forCambridge students.

First, a genuinely pro-student membernow sits on the four-persor. ElectionCommission, a development for whichthe Democratic City Committee canclaim most of the credit. In filling the1974 Democratic seat on the Commis-sion, the Democratic Committee, domi-nated by reformers as a result of the 1972McGovern surge in the primary here,opened up the selection process with adetailed, issue-oriented questionnaire for.candidates, followed by a series of publichearings throughout the city. Last Febru-ary 28, the Committee ended a toughfloor fight by electing three progressive-nominees on a series of open roll-callvotes. As the law provides, James LeoSullivan, the new City Manager, thenappointed one of the nominees to theElection Commission on April 22 - hisfirst appointment since coming to Cam-bridge on April 1.

The nominee selected by the CityManager was Sondra Scheir, who prob-ably understands the problems of studentregistrants as thoroughly as anyone in thecity. ScheiT, as the first coordinator ofthe Cambridge Committee for VoterRegistration (CCVR), directed the mas-sive citywide registration drive in 1971.In that capacity, she joined the CivilLiberties Union of Massachusetts (CLUM)

I come from a part ofWyoming just to the west of the chunkthat Kansas City Southern proposes tohaul to Texas in an illustration accom-panying the article. From my hometownI can see the 900 acres of a small coalmine originally projected to move only350,000,000 cubic yards of soil butwhich now must be substantially expand-ed to feed hungry electric generatingplants. In the central part of the state gascompanies flare (simply burn- enoughgas each day to keep the state running forweeks. Ranchers in the same area are stillbitter from the raw deals they got fromuranium companies over a decade ago.

In Case of Insomnia -

Randoma gripes,bi~tclhes,

and complaints 1IBy Storm Kaulffman-

I've been warned that tangling withPhysical Plant is a dangerous proposition,but throwing aside caution I here presentmy second installment of things thatannoy me (and should annoy you)around the Institute. It's all meant in thespirit of helpful criticism, of course.

What a racket!Perhaps you've at some time found

that, in one of the few instances that youare really listening to your lecturer, anObnoxious construction noise has made itimpossible to hear. This has recentlyhappened in several of my classes, and itmade me wonder what recourse a studentor an instructor has when a class is madeunintelligible by drilling or pounding.

According to Superintendent of Build-i~ngs William Combs, most MIT employeesare aware of the classes in progress andtry to avoid being too disruptive; Thesource of the disturbances is usually theoutside contractors who are told they willwork a normal day and base their bids onthat. Having to hold up for classes orworking in off-hours would makce mostjobs too expensive for MIT.

The only solution Combs could sug-gest was that someone explain the prob-lem to the worker responsible for thenoise. Then the worker would supposedlyask his supervisor who would call hisPhysical Plant liaison for instructions.While this is the only reasonable rmetho~dit appears that the noisemnaking activitymight be stopped by the end of the 'term,which would do all of us a lot of good.

Anyway, asking the worker to ceaseand desist for a while can't hurt. Con-sider, after all, that at $3150 a year andan average load of 50 units (15 hours ofclass a week) each minute you loserepresents a cost of $. 15 ( $03150 dividedby 28 weeks divided by 15 hours perweek divided by 50 minutes per classequals $. 15). Think of that next time youdaydream half a class away.

Heat waveWhile the heating in the main buildings

has been off for quite a while (on and offa few times), most dorms have sufferedthrough this pleasantly warm weatherwith their heat at winter levels. Whatabout the energy crisis, cost of fuel, thatwe hear so much about?

When asked about the reason, Managerof Campus Housing A dministrative Ser-vices Robert Shaw pointed out that un-certainties inl the weather make it dif-ficult to know when to shut off thesteam. He agreed with me that the roomsmust be getting pretty hot and said thatthe heat would probably be off in acouple of days. It is still on.

Speaking of dorm heating, my buildingused a novel system of cycling the steamthis winter. The result was clamorousknocking at thirteen minutes past everyhour, a din to which I never grewaccustomed. Granted it was a convenienttime signal, but it was hardly conduciveto sleep (what do you mean I should betooling instead of sleeping.

Note snowed

On the other hand, I would like tocongratulate Physical Plant on the excel-lent job they did this past winter inremoving several large, unexpected snowfalls which occurred during off hours.Even though I was almost run over twice

by snow plows wielded by zealous drivers.

Over one hundred little stakeslike this have suddenly appearedon the lawns around the DreyfusBuilding (Bldg 18), promptingquestions about planrs to changethe courtyard in some way.Physical Plant groundsmen, how-ever, say that there are no plansto put a building in the area; thestakes are just there to identifythe locations of sprinkler headsfor drivers of mowers and fertili-zer-spreaders.

lb you, photography is morethan a hobby. You may never wantto become a professional. Yet, yourphotography is as important ameans of self-expression to you asyour speech. You demand thesame excellence in your photo-graphic equipment as you do ofyour photographic skills.

The Canon F-1 is the camera thatcan fulfill any photographic task towhich you put it. It can stand up toyour ability in any situation.

Naturally, a great camera like theF-1 won't ensure great results.That's up to you. Yet-it's nice toknow that your camera can growwith you as a photographer.

Part of the reason for this is theF-1 system. Since it was designedin totality, it offers total perform-ance. There is nothing "added on"in the F-1 system. Everything worksas it was designed to, and inte-grates superbly with everythingelse. You'll spend lesstimeworryingabout operating the camera than inshooting. And that's what creativephotography is really all about.

Controls fall into place undereach finger. It's no accident. Pro-fessionalswho depend on a camerafor their livelihood have a deepregard for the F-l's handling. It'samazing how much a comfortablecamera can improve your work.

Sharing these lenses and manyof these accessories are the newElectronic Canon EF, with fullyautomatic exposure control, theFTb, now improved with all expo-sure information visible in thefinder, and the TLb, great for asecond camera body or for gettingstarted in Canon photographyCanon. For serious applications.For serious photographers.

Isn't it time you got serious?

When asked why someonewho was doubled-up in an EastCampus single wouldn't just payhalf the normal rent, Art Beals,Assistant Director of Housingand Dining, replied, "We musttake into account the consisten-cy with other rooms in thesystem. Paying one half in adoubled single just isn't consis-tent. There are other servicesprovided besides room space."

Brammer said that any smallprofit made by the overcrowdingwould just appear as "noisemoney" at the end of the year,and would help pay for unbud-geted expenses. "All moneymade by overcrowding in anyway goes back into the systembefore the year is out," headded.

Food serviceFood service cost for the fall

term was raised 13.8%, and costsfor IAP and spring term weretenatively raised 70.2% and14.9% respectively, althoughthese figures may change if infla-tion is worse than anticipated.

The large rise in IAP foodcost was explained by Beals,"The old IAP fee was set at thetotal variable cost - that is, foodcosts - but not the labor. Thiswas done so that studentswouldn't be penalized for eitherstaying or leaving during IAP.When we had compulsory com-mons and a break-even system,that was possible. It fsn't now."

prices in line with term prices,since past IAP prices have beenextremely low.

The committee's report alsooutlined two new commonsoptions to supplement the regu-lar 15 meal contract. A 19 mealcontract will include the 15regular weekday meals, plusbrunch and dinner on weekends.This contract will cost $110,$25, and $120 more than the 15

meal contract for fall, IAP, andspring terms respectively.

The other new option, calleda 1/3 contract, provides 25 eachof breakfasts, lunches, and din-ners each term to be taken anytime during the term, and sevenof each meal during IAP. It willcost $145, $45, and $155 forthe fall, IAP, and spring terms,respectively, according to thereport.

MIT's season, almost certainly awinless one again. Yet ifSaturday's game was any indi-cation of what lies in the futurefor the Engineers, things shouldbe quite bright next year bothfor the ending of the losingstreak and for MIT lacrosse as awhole.

By Glenn BrownsteinAlthough Saturday after-

noon's game against Springfieldwill go into the record as MIT's27th consecutive varsity lacrossedefeat, nothing can take awayfrom the fact that MIT foughtSpringfield down to and actuallypast the wire, losing a 7-6 heart-breaker to the Indians inovertime.

The Engineers- came frombehind three times to tie thegame, including a three-goalburst in the final eleven minutesof regulation time to make up a6-3 deficit.

Springfield struck first withtwo quick goals at 7:02 and7:21 of the first period, the onlyscores of the first half. TheEngineers got two goals early inthe third period to tie the scoreat two all.

Following a Springfield tie-breaker less than a minute later,co-captain George Braun '75 fedattackman Jim Cook '75 in frontof the net for the tying score at8:46.

However, indian scores at13:05 of the third period and0. 11 and 2:50 of the fourthseemed to put the game out ofreach for the Engineers, whohave had problems in the secondhalf all year.

A "garbage" goal· by Braun,on a scramble in, front of theSpringfield goalie at. 3:56 gaveMIT a lift, and another Braun-to-

-- Cook feed brought the Engineers.within one.

Although Springfieldappeared to take control of thegame again after Cook's secondgoal, the Engineers refused toquit. Little-used third.midfielder.Blake Hurt '77 carried the ballover the midfield line on a clear,dodged two defenders, and firedi·a-.sfho~t:;:t-h ateapp1are.e-yde-fleted ...,off a Springfield stick into thenet to' bring the Engineers backonce more.

Despite a 20-second two-manadvantage with 2:35 to go, MITcould not score again and thegame went into overtime.

Springfield took the openingfaceoff and worked the ball infront where a shot was fired atgoalie Jeff Singer'77, who madethe save. The rebound came outto the left- where Springfieldattackman Barker scooped it justbeyond the reach of Singer forthe game-winner.. Goalie Singer played an ex-

cellent game, keeping the Engi-neers even in regulation timedespite an Indian shootingadvantage of 30-12.

Jim Cook filled in for regularattackman Bob Connor'75 quitewell., scoring two goals andassisting on another. As theEngineers lose one attackman(John Rueter '74) to graduation,Cook may be the man to fill thegap.

Co-captinns Braun and RickBye '75, have- both put in fineefforts this year, Braun con-trolling the offense all year andscoring 20 of MIT's 39 goals thisseason, while Bye provided somestability for the troubled MITdefense.

Also playing well were twolargely unheralded middies, Hurt(with his tying goal) and MartySchlect '77, whose stickwork ondefense forced Springfield into anumber of passing errors.

The Engineers have an ex-ceptionally tough test coming upthis Saturday at Amherst againstnationally ninth-ranked Massa-chusetts. The game will conclude

MIT's Herb Kummer '75 is cut down while trying to score in last week's win over Northeastern'sHuskies. Thankfully, the Beavers pulled out the game in the ninth inning, and the loss of this run wasnot disastrous. Photo by Ed McCabe

Beaver tourney hopes lessenO'Brien's team to lengthen itsseason.

The possibility for a bid stilldoes exist, though, should theteam complete the remainder ofits schedule without a loss, withtomorrow's game against Har-vard the major stumbling block.

All talk of tournaments aside,the season for MIT has thus farbeen an amazing success. Noteven when California Angels'farmhand Al Dopfel '72 washurling for MIT could theBeavers match their current 12-5mark.

No game has been more in-dicative of the fortunes of thisyear's squad than last Tuesday's9-8 win over Northeastern.Trailing 8-6 after eight innings,the Beavers staged' a beautifulrally to pull out the victory.

Mike Dziekan '76 tripledhome Roy Henriksson '76 in thethird inning and later scored ona sacrifice fly by Dave Tirrell '74to give MIT the early lead.

After Northeastern hadbattled back to take the lead,Kevin Rowland '74 plated tworuns with a bases loaded double,and the Beavers led 54 afterfive.

The Huskies in the home halfof the sixth chased starter DaveYauch '75 and, with assistancefrom MIT's fielders and somequestionable umpiring, stormedinto an 8-5 lead.

Still, the Beavers fought back.Two-out singles by Henriksson,Dziekan, and Tirrell produced arun in the eighth, setting thestage for the final frame up-rising.

With one out Rowland lasheda single and moved to second

after a walk to Vince Maconi'76. Northeastern then called onits ace reliever who walked allthree men he faced, leaving thegame with the bases loaded andthe score tied. Dziekan thenripped a sacrifice fly to left fieldto score the game-winner.

Mike Royal '76, who relievedYauch in the sixth, blankedNortheastern in the final frameto nail down the exciting win,his fifth in six decisions.

The two losses whichfollowed could. with but a bit ofluck, have both entered the MITledger on the plus side.

Don Proper '76 and JohnCavolowsky '76 combined tothrow a six-hitter at Bates onFriday, but the Beavers' im-potent bats could produce onlyfour baseknocks.

The following day on BriggsField, the Beavers carried a 4-3lead into the ninth inning againstBrandeis, but could not hold on.Had a line drive which eludedthe jump of the Beaver shortstopbeen caught, Brandeis wouldhave been defeated. However,such was not the case, and thegame went into extra innings.Three MIT errors in the top ofthe tenth inning loaded thebases; a walk forced in theeventual winning run.

The Beavers nearly salvagedthe game in the home half, but apick-off play at second dousedMIT hopes.

At the outset of the season,Coach O'Brien was only willingto predict that his team would atleast be "in" every ballgame.With each passing contest itappears that the Coach had aflair for understatement.
