an improved student center. Asmany people pointed out, Caltechlacks a place where students fromdifferent houses can get together.Winnett Lounge was called cold,uninviting, and ugly. Several peo­ple pointed out that WinnettLounge's primary purpose seems tobe as a meetingplace for clubs andfor small lectures, and any attemptto remodel it into a form moresuitable for informal gatheringswould prevent it from serving itscurrent function. In fact, out of thepeople who thought the studentcenter needed to be improved,about 60 percent of the studentsthought that a simple renovation orexpansion ofWinnett would be in­sufficient. However, no one men­tioned the renovation of the SouthHouse basement as a possible solu­tion.

Of course, what is inside a stu­dent center is more important thanhow it is physically organized.Places to buy food and loungeareas, possibly with some readingmaterial and a television set, were

lack of information about facilitiesavailable. One student even askedwhere the gym was located.However, the most surprisingresult was the demand for racquet­ball/squash courts. Although therewas no mention of them on thesurvey, nearly a quarter of thestudents said they wanted racquet­ball courts. This was true of bothgrads and undergrads, and was in­dependent of where people lived,unlike the requests by grad studentsfrom one house for more mathbooks, and requests from anotherundergrad house for a heliport.

One of the purposes of the stu­dent facilities survey was to assessstudents' feelings about a new stu­dent center. About 60 percent ofundergrads and 40 percent of gradstudents thought Caltech could use

ASCIT Electionsand as President I actively intendto do so. The President must alsohave excellent communicationskills since he represents thestudents of all houses at functionssuch as faculty meetings, alumnimeetings, and at frosh camp. I feelthat knowing people in every housegives me an idea of how studentsfeel about issues. In addition, I feelthat I am approachable and open tonew ideas which I might not other­wise see.

I would like to add that in theyear ahead there will be issues thatwill affect each student. Whenthese issues appear, I am confidentthat. I can make a positive contribu­tion as President.

David GoldreichI would greatly appreciate the

opportunity to serve you as ASCITTreasurer. It is important that theTreasurer be able to conductbusiness on behalf of ASCIT andalso to keep accurate records. AsBusiness Manager of the Califor­nia Tech for the past year, I gainedexperience and have had much suc­cess in both of these matters. Whenthe fiscal year ends in February,the Tech will have grossed over$45,000, roughly comparable tothe entire ASCIT budget. Undermy management the Tech has hadits most profitable year ever.

I would now like to have theopportunity to serve the campus ina broader way. I am diligent, con­scientious, and determined to per­form the duties of Treasurer to theutmost of my abillities.

Thank you for your support onelection day.

David BruningDuring the past year, I have

served as the ASCIT Treasurer.This period gave me many chancesto get involved with ASCIT opera­tions as well as the bookkeeping.Participation in the upcomingFaculty-Student Conference hasbeen one of the most rewarding ac­tivities thus far.

One major accomplishmentwhile in office was the switch to aninterest-earning account outside ofthe checking account. In less thaneight months, ASCIT earned over$600, enough to finance two moreclubs or sponsor an even largersocial event.

Two reasons exist for my desireto retain my current position. First,is the general participation inASCIT decision-making. Althoughit may not sound like much, thereis a sense of pride in actually hav­ing a say in the decisions of the stu­dent government. The other reasonis to follow through on somereforms that are currently beingdevised by the Excomm. Thesedeal mainly with control over thebookkeeping of the Big and littleT's. Hopefully, this will preventany further budgetary problemscaused by lack of financial book­keeping, as has happened inprevious years.

Thank you for your continuedsupport.

Forexample, I received the Gold Naward in recognition of my serviceto the school, and I also belong tothe Ephebian Society, whosemembers are elected to this city­wide (Los Angeles) organizationbased on citizenship, leadership,scholarship, and service to schooland community.

Kathleen HayashibaraThe office of ASCIT President

demands much from a person. Firstof all, you must be willing todonate a significant portion of yourtime no matter how busy you maybe with other things. Also, a per­son must have some experience orknowledge of how to carry out ad­ministrative duties so that ideaspresented in meetings can beevaluated and put to work effec­tively. In addition, the ASCITPresident must be able to com­municate well with the studentbody in order to determine what itsgeneral viewpoint is on particularissues so that intelligent decisionscan be made. Finally, the presidentmust be deeply concerned with theneeds of the people he or sherepresents.

I believe that I have enoughtime available in order to do the jobwell since I am nearly finished withall my requirements. Furthermore,I am a responsible, hard-workingperson so you can be assured thatI will commit enough of my timeto the duties involved.

Caltech students currently donot have sufficient access toASCIT. Students lack awareness ofthe activities of the ASCIT Boardof Directors. As president I willwork to make ASCIT more visibleand more responsive to studentneeds. I will encourage thosestudents with sufficient time anddesire to participate in BODmeetings and discussions. I will in­crease student awareness througharticles in the California Techtogether with dinner an­nouncements which will notifystudents of the agenda for upcom­ing board meetings. Also, I supportmore activities and projects (in­terhouse parties, renovation ofWinnett Student Center, etc.)which promote interaction betweenthe student houses.

not only involves many ad­ministrative duties, but also re­quires a sincere commitment to im­proving student life - bothacademically and socially. To beeffective as the representative ofthe Caltech student community, thepresident must be constantly awareof all student opinions - not justthose of one house or one smallgroup of students. The ASCITPresident must also be able to com­municate well with the faculty, theadministration, and other students.

Encounter activity peaks duringa 6 hour period today, Jan. 24,1986, when the highest priorityobservations will take place. Inabout a quarter of a day, scientistswill obtain more information aboutUranus, its satellites and rings,than has been learned since SirWilliam Herschel discovered theplanet on March 13, 1781. Muchof the data collected during thespacecraft's closest approach,however, will be recorded on thespacecraft for playback to Earth onfollowing days.

Uranus will be the third planetvisited by Voyager 2 since thespacecraft was launched fromEarth on Aug. 20, 1977. Voyager2 flew past Jupiter on July 9, 1979,and then Saturn on Aug. 25, 1981.

ASCIT Highlights AlternativeJob Fair

by Hossein MohammadA newly formed peace group

on campus has announced plans tohold a nonmilitary related "JobFair" at Caltech.

STRIVE, Society to Reduce in­ternational Violence on Earth, hassent letters to most undergraduatestudents and some faculty andgraduate students inviting them tojoin the group in organizing theevent this spring.

Caltech sponsors a Career Fairin February through the CareerDevelopment Office each year.The fair brings representatives ofmany companies seekingemployees from among Caltech'sgraduating Seniors to campus toprovide information for and inter­view interested students. Accor­ding to Sally Asmundson, Direc­tor of Career Development Center,most of these companies conduct alarge amount of defense-orientedwork.

The Alternative Job Fairplanned by members of STRIVE is

:::::::4lt= =--ttL>~ to "provide students with the op­portunity to talk to some of thecompanies that do high level, non­military work in their technicalareas of interest," says Allan VanAsselt, one of the organizers ofSTRIVE.

This will be the first time thatsuch a career fair is held at Caltech.A student organization at MITsponsored a similar event in Cam­bridge last year, and there are nowseveral local and national organiza­tions that follow similar objectives.

ing them that "you do make a dif­ference...what you do and whatyou say matter."

Perhaps the most emphatic sec­tion of Tutu's speech was that onthe horrors of apartheid."You whohave been victims of injustice andoppression know only too well justhow debilitating, how demoraliz­ing, how conditioning oppressioncan be....You are brainwashed in­to an acquiescence in your own op­pression and exploitation. Youcome to believe what others havedetermined about you, filling youwith self-disgust, self-contempt,self-hatred, accepting a negativeself-image." However, BishopTutu did not think this the worstaspect of apartheid. He postulatedthat "the most blasphemous thingabout apartheid is that it can makea child of God doubt that she or heis a child of God."

The conclusion of the addressstressed the need for in­terdependence and workingtogether on resolving topics such asworld hunger, the arms race andapartheid. Tutu again said that "thelaw of the land is against us" regar­ding basic human rights in SouthAfrica and that "there isn't any sec­tional freedom...." No one can everbe truly free unless all are free," aconcept understood very well byMartin Luther King, Jr.

Tutu's fmal remarks praisedKing and proclaimed hopes for thefuture: "Thank God for Martin,thank God that he was a giantamong women and men, thankGod for his vision, thank God forhis moral and physical courage....How else could Martin have prov­ed his great love for his brothersand sisters, black and white, thanby laying down his life for themand so emulating his Lord andmaster?" Lastly, he spoke of thefulftllment of another visionary'sdream: that of St. John in the Bookof Revelation.

"And after this, I looked andsaw a vast throng which no onecould number, from every nation,of all tribes, peoples and languagesstanding in front of the throne andbefore the Lamb. They were rob­ed in white and had palms in theirhands, and they shouted together,'Victory to our God, who sits onthe throne, and to the Lamb!'"

Perhaps the togethernessdescribed by St. John will soon beachieved through the efforts ofpeo­ple such as Martin Luther King, Jr.

- and Bishop Desmond Tutu.

claimed, "1 do not belong in thesame league as Dr. Martin LutherKing, and 1 am not being falselymodest...." Tutu described King asan "original thinker" and "a pacifist,which 1am not. I am a peace lover.I do think that there would be cir­cumstances where violence isjustifiable." He cited Nazi Ger­many as an example. Tutu alsostressed the basic difference bet­ween his cause and that of King's:while the struggle in America wasfor civil liberties already in theConstitution· but not granted, thefight in South Africa is for basichuman rights in a land where thelaws,the very constitution isagainst the people.

Bishop Tutu reiterated some ofthese thoughts and added otherslater that evening. After being in­troduced by Mayor Tom Bradleyas "a courageous, committed man"who "will never be forgotten,"Bishop Tutu greeted the audienceand delivered an eloquent keynoteaddress, full of wisdom, wit,strength and emotion. He praisedKing as "someone who belongs notjust to the world but belongs to theuniverse; someone who is God'sgreatest advertisement." He alsothanked the Americans for their ef­forts and especially for the sanc­tions against South Africa, assur-

The Inside WorldDabney: In the 21st Century . ..

It had been about ten years since I'd been on campus. My job withDabney House-West Europe kept me away from the States most of thetime as it was, and the occasional visit I made to North America usual­ly found me in DC testifying before the Supreme Board.

Boy, things had changed. There weren't any Dabney House exitson~~ 210 when I was an undergraduate. 1 took the exit for the DabneyBuilding, and followed signs to the executive parking garage just northof the corporate headquarters. I passed by the Security car, all deckedout with its stolen PPD lightbar and the cute little sign reading"Security-Stop or We'll Shoot." (They mean! it, too. Gone were thedays of parking enforcement for these men- now they had full powersto arrest people for murder and related crimes, as well as to pull overspeeders. And they went at their duties quite vigorously; the trafficBOC was full of offenders daily.)

1 got out of my car and went over to an elevator. I punched up thelobby. The door opened, revealing a plush reception area. An infor­mation desk was directly across the room from me; over it was a largesign reading "Dabney House-the House of Academic Standards andHonors."

The receptionist took my name and pointed me toward my destina­tion, handing me a small plastic card. 1went over to the private elevatorto the Presidential Penthouse and put the card in a slot. The elevatordoors opened.

.~he elevator whisked me up to the 53rd floor. I stepped into thew~tmg room. "The president will be right with you, sir," the secretarysald. "Please have a seat." After a few minutes, four men in dark suitscarrying flOe leather briefcases, stepped out and walked silently to th~elevator. A telephone buzzed; the secretary picked it up, listened, said"Yes, sir," and hung up. The four men looked nervously at her; shelooked back, not smiling. The elevator door opened. The men hesitatedthen stepped in. The door closed. The secretary pushed a concealedbutton on her desk; screams erupted from the elevator shaft then fellill~. '

"You may go in now, sir," she told me. I gulped, nodded nervous­ly, and stood.

Lewis and "Born in the USA" to"The Unknown Soldier" by theDoors and "Gimme Shelter" by theStones. There is even some livemusic, including "The Star­Spangled Banner" and "Captains ofCourage," a montage of typicalremarks ("You were a hero," "Youwere a fool," "What does it feel liketo kill someone?") performed bythe whole cast. The music is anessential part, the well-chosenselections at times beautifully com­plementing the action on stage.

The format is that of individualscenes, with each emphasizing aparticular character or aspect of thewar. The individual scenes are notparticularly notable on their own.There is the obligatory Sergeant­grilling-the-new-recruits scene, adrug scene, a serious-meta­physical-rap-while-on-dope scene,and some gruesome battle scenes(though the blood is in the imagina­tion of the audience). Thanks to thehundreds and hundreds of oldWorld War II movies, most suchscenes might quickly be dismissedas cliches (and isn't that a comfor­ting thought?). The honesty and ex­perience of the veteran cast makeall the difference. Without that,everything would be trite andoverblown.

Becoming self-consciously art­sy or preachy is a ~onstant dangerin productions with a message, butwith the cast working from ex­perience and from the heart,everything works out well. Thecumulative effect is significant. Ifelt as though I'd learned somethingthat a lot of other study of Vietnamjust hadn't quite gotten across.

dancing, juggling, flashing sword­play, and all the exotic glamour ofthe 1001 Nights.

But it can't happen without yourhelp! The cast still needs basses andbaritones, and the orchestradesperately needs violins. Also,anyone interested in creating ananimated cobra to come out of abasket and dance can also be partof the fun. If you can't do any ofthat, don't despair! You can stillhelp with set construction, makeup,or the myriad of technical detailsassociated with any major musical.Ifyou're interested in any of these,call Deena at x2l58. Take sometime out from your homework andbe a part of Kismet!

by David HullTracers is not one of the great

literary works of the twentieth cen­tury, but I don't think its creatorsever intended it to be. Tracers wasmade to tell us about one thing, theVietnam war. It tells about Viet­nam from the point of view of peo­ple who were actualy there. Theoriginal version of the play was co­written by John DiFusco and theoriginal cast, all of whom are Viet­nam vets. The version playing inLA contains some new writing andsome changes in the cast, buteveryone who wrote and everyoneon stage did serve in the war.These people have something tosay, and they know what they'retalking about.

I hesitate to review Tracers inthe usual terms of writing, acting,quality of the sound and lightingand such. Suffice it to say that theproduction did not get in the wayof the play, and in· cases like thisthe message is more important thanthe medium. If this sounds likedamning with faint praise, it isn't.Very seldom can one watch a playor movie without being distractedby some minor technical problem.In this performance, whatevertechnical problems there may havebeen didn't distract, which is real­ly all one could ask.

Tracers is not a drama. The ac­tion does not revolve around astoryline, but a situation. WatchingTracers is more like leafingthrough a photo album, piecingtogether a big picture from smallerpieces. Monologues by individualcharacters are interspersed withgroup scenes and dialogues,simulated battles, pantomimes anddances.

The whole production issaturated with music, ranging from"Walking on a Thin Line" by Huey

called "constructivism," which wasan entirely Russian movement. Itsmost important contributors wereVladimir Tatlin, El Lissitsky, andNaum Gabo, and they were allgiven room in this show. Unfor­tunately, most of their originalworks were destroyed in thechaotic circumstances present inRussia in those days, forcing thelater construction of replicas oftheir sculptures. Tatlin showed forthe first time that good sculpturescould be made out of untreatedjunk, like his "Hanging CornerRelief," 1915. He also built amodel to a Monument to the ThirdInternational in 1920, a monumentwhich was to be a 400m-highrotating spiral tower. Needless tosay, it was never built, but a replicaof the model was shown inLouisiana.

The best and most lasting im­pression was given bya more well­known couple, though - MichailLarionov and Natalia Goncharova;Goncharova's works were especial­ly impressive. Together, theyformed - and constituted- a move­ment called rayonism. Much in­fluenced by cubism, they wanted tomove on to something new. By let­ting light rays - thus the namerayonism - from a multitude of in­visible sources strike, and reflectfrom, their depicted objects, theycreated a pattern of intersectingrays and planes of light, sort oflikethe cubist facet-planes. Theseelements interact in a very dynamicand expressive way. Goncharova'srayonist paintings are somewhat

at a rate never seen before or since.Unfortunately, the communisticgovernment grew increasinglyhostile toward these expressions offreedom, and Stalin finally put anend to it all by imprisoning or ex­pelling the artists.

But back to the show! All thefamous names were shown: Kan­dinsky, Malevich, Popova, Gon­charova, Tatlin ... Several lessknown artists were alsorepresented. One of Popova'spaintings can be seen at the Nor­ton Simon here in Pasadena; atLouisiana, she was representedwith several very good cubist pain­tings and painting-sculptures. Kan­dinsky was covered well with bothearlier, figurative works, as well asseveral of his later, characteristicabstract works, like "White Line"from 1920. The works shown byMalevich were of quite varyingquality. Some of it was really bad,nothing but scribblings on dirtygraph paper-it should not becalled art, and I doubt Malevich in­tended it to be exhibited. However,some of his best suprematist workswere also shown, for example"Dynamic Suprematism," 1916,which is a very energy-filledgeometric composition. Unfor­tunately, none of his "White onWhite" were shown. On the otherhand, they showed one of Rod­chenko's "Black on Black," 1918.The painting is entirely black; on­ly varying textures and paintthickness let you see the pattern init. It is wonderful.

A Visit to the Museumby Bengt Magnusson

While I visited Scandinavia thisChristmas, I planned on visitingseveral of the art museums we haveup there. Well, I only got to oneof them. True, I travelled about15,000 kilometers to get toSweden, but my mom thought itwas much too far to travel the re­maining 350 km to the MunchMuseum in Oslo, Norway. Parentsare strange sometimes. So I had tobe satisfied with visiting the Loui­siana Museum in Humlebaek,Denmark.

Louisiana is undoubtedly Scan­dinavia's foremost museum formodern art. The museum itself isa nice piece of art, by the way, witha very interesting architecture, andbeautifully located on the westernshore of Oresund. It has a largepermanent collection of later 20thcentury art, with world-famous ar­tists like Andy Warhol, AnthonyTapies, and Frank Stella wellrepresented.

The most interesting part ofLouisiana, though, is its hall forvisiting exhibitions. In the past,they have shown large collectionsof works by Gaugin, Munch,Picasso, and Miro. Their latestshow, which I had the fortune tosee, was entitled "Russian Avant­Garde, 1910-1930," and was, inone word, stunning.

This period, just around therevolution in Russia, was one ofthe most exciting ones in arthistory. The artists were constant­1y experimenting, and althoughsome were just plain weird and ledto dead ends, others succeeded inPUshing the frontiers of art forward

Tracersfrom page 5as it must in any honest depictionof war. The play realistically showspeople forced to live with eachother under extremely harsh con­ditions, so we see the resultantcamaraderie. But these familiarnotions are not the main thrust ofthe play. Mostly, it gives a glimpseof what it was like for the hundredsof thousands who are just now be­ing recognized. As such, Tracersis a valuable source of first-hand

only two artists, van Gogh andMunch, knew how to paint the sun.With this painting, I would almostlike to add Goncharova to thisgroup - unfortunately, she did notpursue this style much further. Thelight in this painting is marvelous,just like that of a clear, cool even­ing in September in northern Scan­dinavia or Russia. It is remarkablethat a painting with such atormented message can be sobeautiful.

Louisiana has long been Scan­dinavia's foremost museum formodern art, and its visiting exhibi­tions bring in works by famous ar­tists from all over the world. Theirlatest show, "Russian Avant Garde,1910-1930," gave an excellent ex­position of art from this epoch.Painting and sculpture, controver­sial and acceptable art, more- andless-known artists, it was all there.Natalia Goncharova stood out asone of the absolutely best artists inthe show; her "Yellow and GreenForest" is especially good. If youever get to Scandinavia, be sure tovisit Louisiana-there is always agood show there to see.

through which smaller moleculescould pass, and finding the moststable bonding confiuration bet­ween atoms on the surface of asilicon crystal (a problem Goddardgave in Ch 1 last year; apparentlyhis answer was wrong).

In addition to the video, God­dard had a few slides, mostly withdense print and combining everyimaginable color on one slide.Harry Gray helped him with anonstage demonstration of bondgeometries on the silicon surface.They stood a few feet apart, withtheir limbs outstretched: "Harryand I are subsurface atoms, and ourarms and legs are electrons ...." Itwas an unorthodox method, to saythe least.

He talked fast, at one momentrisking alienation of the general au­dience with possibly unfamiliarterms ("inhibitor," "cofactor,""methyltrexase") and the next mo­ment using words like "thingama­jig." Some of the material surelywent over the heads of the au­dience, but that's the nature of aGoddard lecture. You may notunderstand everything he says; attimes, you may not understandanything he says. But everyone hasfun, and Wednesday night was noexception. I'm just glad there's noquiz due today.

If I have to name one paintingm the show as "The Best," it wouldwithout doubt be Goncharova's"Yellow and Green Forest," 1913.It is a very striking and expressivepainting, with beautiful colors. Themotif is most likely a sunset overa forest with a little lake in theforeground, perhaps with a boat init. All elements in the painting aredissolved and broken up into sharp,narrow surfaces, many of whichare connected with rays, in a verytypical rayonist manner. The entireforest is vibrating with energy, asif i~ torment. It is painted with veryrapId brushstrokes , which amplifythe energetic impression - it took alot of energy, both physical andmental, to paint this masterpiece.The setting sun is very good withits bright orange rays.

dent is my ability to communicatewith others. Over the past twoyears I have spent here I havebecome acquainted with many peo­ple from different houses so Ibelieve I would be a good represen­tative of the student body.

by Marty ZimmermanWith Christmas over, it's time

for the Caltech hockey players toget back in shape. As usual, ourfirst game of the new year was aterrible debacle, with this year'sculprit being USc. On the brightside Rick Miake-Lye, Simon­Goldstein and Marty Zimmermanscored goals.

Last Thursday was the lastaway game of the season (hur­ray!)-a midnight meeting withUCLA. As in previous awaygames we were badly out­numbered, but those present put onone of the best performances of theyear. Thanks to two goals by PhilAskenazy, both assisted by Marty,the score was only 4-2 after thefirst period. In the second periodGeorge Yates again pulled Caltechto within two points with a goalassisted by Martine Brouillette.Martine, a new player, playedmuch of the game on the "FrenchConnection" line with Jean PierreBardet and newcomer PierreLaroche. Although the game nevergot out of control, UCLA steadilyadded goals and won 10 - 3. Thenext UCLA game on our smallerPasadena rink should be muchcloser. We will now have fourhome games in a row, startingTuesday night with Cal StateNorthridge.

the comeback of Ed Zanelli, whohad missed 3 112 games due to anankle injury. Zanelli played 38minutes and scored 16 points. Cap­tain Brian Porter led all scorers wth17, and center Brett Bush tossed in16 in a strong performance.

Part of the game was fIlmed fora possible spot at halftime of theSyracuse-St. Johns game, whichwill be nationally televised onFebruary 1st.

Also, five players were inter­viewed after the game by a DallasHerald reporter who is travelingacross the country. Porter,Helgren, Zanelli, Bush, and JeffLester (who had an outstanding 8for 8 performance against Pomona10 days ago) spoke about Caltechbasketball and athletics in general.The interview will be printed inDallas and might be used in a book.

The next home game isWednesday at 7:30 vs.Marymount. Last time againstMarymount, Porter had 29 points,Bush had 32, and the team almostbroke 100 in a lopsided victory.See you there.

Following a double overtimeloss to Claremont at home and awin over Whittier, the Caltechbasketball team are now 3-2 inleague play.

On Saturday, Claremont usedfine outside shooting as Rich wonround one of the battle of theZanellis. Although Claremont wereaccurate from the field, they wereforced into two overtimes thanks inlarge part to the fine play of JimHelgren, who had twenty-twopoints. In the end, free throwshooting killed Caltech as theyfailed to convert in crucialsituations.
