VOLUME 92, NUMBER 23 FRIDAY, MAY 5, 1972 MIT, CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS FIVE CENTS

By Stomn KauffmanOn Monday evening the

Graduate Student Council votedby white ballot to offer up to$1000 to the Northgate Tenants'Organization to help cover thelegal expenses of fighting thetermination proceedingsinitiated by the NorthgateCommunity Corporation lastweek (see The Tech, May 2).

The GSC decided to offer themoney through its FinanceCommiittee as the tenants' fighttAs a deadline, that of thevacancy date - June 1.- A'member of the Council notedthat only half of the funds werepresently known to be availablebut that it was likely that a lookat the finances would turn upthe extra without any difficulty.

David Tong G, chairman ofthe Finance Committee, pointedout that he was not even sure ifthe tenants would want the aid.However, he said, "We felt thatthe need was critical enough towarrant our immediate action."The money is to be used tocover the tenants' legal expenses.

Ron C. Searls, the head of theNo r t h g a t e T e n a n t s'Organization, said of the offer"It's great!" The group will betaking their budget to the GSCFinance Conmmnittee and Searlsnoted that some debts havealready been incurred. Some$200 in expense.,in March haslargely been collected from theresidents, but there have been

additional expenditures sincethen.

Searls predicted that a courtsuit to fight the terminationsmight cost about $500. If MITwere to lose that decision ormove to evict thosetenants-at-will who refused tovacate, the legal fees would runmuch more.

The public hearing that thetenants requested more than sixweeks ago has finally beenscheduled, Searls announced. Ithas been set for May 18 and alinterested persons are invited toattend and offer anyinformation that they may havethat has bearing on the subject.

The actual decision onwhether MIT has the right totreat MIT-affiliated persons inNorthgate as dormitory residentswill not be made until later.Searls feared further delays,pointing out that if the rentcontrol board continues itspolicy of lengthy deliberationsthe decision may not be madeuntil it is too late to help thetenants' cause. This was arestatement of his previous pointthat any decision is better thannone; at least the tenants willthen know where they stand andwhat action to plan.

The money that the GSC hasoffered the Northgate tenantswill come, eventually, from theInstitute. If the conflict reachescourt, the question of MITfunding both of the contendingparties could have some impact.

As part of the program to expand safe andconvenient bicycle parking areas at MIT, aboutfifty new bicycle stands have been installed insidethe Institute's main buildings. Thenew bike standsare located in Buildings 8, 13, and 3. Each of thesesites is close to ramps or convenient deoorways. In

have shattered the belief in a"smooth path of progress basedon technology'" anad resulted inwidespread "doubt and ques-tioning of science and technaol-ogy as sources of benefit tomankind," according to BiologyProfessor Salvador Luria.

Luriaa addressed Tuesday'sTechnology and Culture seminaron "Science and Responsibil-ity," and was responded to byProfessor Robert Mann of theDepartment of Mechanical Engi-neering.

Luria traced the beginnbgs ofscientific esponsibility to thefirst world war, when scientifichistorical developments fhist be-gan influenchig soci¢e 1 atti-tudes. le stated that the view oftechnology was then one of con-fidenceo This was changed, how-ever, by the impact of Nazism -"the fact that in one of the mostadvanced countries of Europethere came up a regie that wasbased not only on the misuse ofmodem science and techologyand knowledge, but on the delib-erate nisapplication [of that

technology]- .. to the destruc-tion of the human soul."

This, Luria asserts, repre-sented a shattering of the illu-sion that society can handle theproducts of science and technol-ogy, "'There came during thecourse of the second world war,the use of a type of war that hAdnever been accepted before...tiat is, the acceptance of theexteniination of non-combatantpopulations."

ie went on to say that "therejection of technology ...tends much too oftent to takethe appearance of the rejectionof a cetain spirit and way ofdoiag things, whereas the reallyimportant thing is to ask oneself

wo csontrols how technology isbeing applied."

Elaborating on this aspect ofscientific resRponsibility, Luriaimplicated the andivldual scien-tist, contending that pure sci-ence no longer exists as all re-searchis fuffiling some purpose.It is the responsibility- of thescientist, according to Luria, toevaluate whit the consequenceso hdis work axe.

John Bullard, graduate stu-dent in Architecture,and Prof.Julian Beinhart explained the pro-ject. The idea of building repre-sentative figures. in order tobring home to people the sheervolume of carnage in Vietnamhad been on Bullard's mind forsome time. At a meeting. lastThursday of students, faculty,and administrators of the Schoolof Architecture, called to discusswhat sort of role people in theSchool could play in supportingantiwar actions, Bullard ex-plained his concept. The groupdecided to go ahead with thedemonstration.

By Rob HuiaterSubject. to faculty appreval,i °men students in the Class of76 will have the same physicalucation requirement as the

en. This recommendation hasen made by the Committee on

ricula (COC) and is the resulta year-long staudy of the gen-

: Institute physical educatlion, quirment.

Currently, the requirement isght units of affietic credit

edict is given for intercollegiatecognition (winter sports areorth four points; fall and

ring sports are worth two0ints each term) or completionf courses offered by the Ath-

!itic Department (two pointsch). Al undergraduate men

ust complete this requirement: a prerequisite to graduation,t until now women have hadsuch reqmurement. This m-ality is being resolved as a

sult of charges by male stu-rnts that this is a discriminitoryd unfair practice.The prasctice is indeed dis-

iminatory, but no practical so-tion was available to resolve

je dilemma. Athletic facilities3r women, sufficient to meete extra demand such a require-

Xent would generate, have not~en available at MIT. This prob-m is being rectified, however.Facilities are beiug providedthe interim between now and

he time when a fmal decisionR is;ade by the faculty so thatequate women's faciities will

available. Locker space inPont is being expanded, and

ns call for eventual renova-0n of a team roomC with cor-

~r access, but this is a lengthyrcess and will not be com-!eted during this spring term.her facilities, such as the

iimming p oI and the tenniscaurts are a lready capable of~mdling the inceased demand

ithout major renovation.i The COC decision is not un-

controvesl! There is alreadysignificanlt campus- dissatisfac-tion regarding the general ath-letic requirement. Curioussly,there is little sentiment ex-pressed by the women at MIT; ifanything, opinion is in favoux ofthe COC decision. This is pos-sibly due to a clause which statesthat the requirement will not beretroactive, but will apply onlyto incolming freshmen_

Substantial interest has beenexpressed by the women in tak-ing regular physical educationcoup-es, but availability of thesecoumes has been Hmited byphysical constraints. The expan-sion of accomodations is ex-pected to result in a- signicant

increase in the number ofwomen participating in the ath-

.letic program.Unfortunately, the COC de-

cision has not effected a reviewof the Institute physical educa-tion requirement. An informalsurvey of MIT women produceda consesus that the requirmentwas fai and necessary, with theimportant qualification that it isonly valid given the existence ofa similar requirement for men.Most of those contacted ques-tioned the necessity for the gen-eral requirement, and expresseda desire- to see this subjectbrought up before the faculty inconjunction with the COC re-port at the May faculty meeting.

machine, on a state-by-tate basis for the:November elections."

-LobbyingYet another feasible alternative to-

student strikes is the practice of lobbying.i'"Visits from peosple are a good thing,':.

said a Hughes aide; ".. anytime aperson from a given state or district goesito his Representative or Senator, that's asdirect as you can g et." He went on to say-

that efforts shoultd be directed to those-legislators that could be regarded asiwaverers. Shirley Chisolm's office recorn.mended that lobbyists be selected andCwell briefed .on pending or proposed:legislation, and reiterated the suggestion!that legislators only be lobbied by theL'constituents . A legislative assistant toSenator Edward Kennedy said that lobby.ing in Washtingtonon oCapitol Hill would:be effective if there were to be a demnon.:stintoon of 500,000 persons on a Satur-iday followed by lobbyists soliciting sup..port for specific legislation the nextweek. Several legislators suggested that an iopportune time for a student 1obbylwould be just prior to the vote on thelegistion/in question.

Wfitten CorrespondenceA highly effective means of exerting

influence is the old standard letterwriting/petition signhag campaign. AVlthough it's generally considered an out..dated mode, the letter to the Congressman, from our indications, appears to besurprisingly effective. Obviously, one let.-ter from a constituent will not usually)cause a politician to worry about the

future of his career- However, many ofthe Congressmen with whom we spokeindicated that they felt letters have agreat deal of influence on their decisions.:Letters from students are unfortunatelyinot given the same hearty welcome asthose of adult constituents "back in thehome state." However, Senator Hughes' iaide suggested that students persuade justten poltical supporters in their home,state to write letters to their Congress .iman; the aide claimed this will definitely ika-;e sorn.z Lmfuacance. The offficial eicour-!aged all constituents to send letters, but.obviously do not guarantee immediate:action for every single letter. Petitiomluwere mentioned by a number of legisla-tors, although by now many persons havegiven up on the signingjmalng to Wash-ington routine. Representative Schwengel(R-lowa) stated that petitions have areaonable amount of influence on hisdecision-making, and that he will take ananti-war petition whfich he received fromhis Congressional district to PresideniNixon next week. However, the letter-writing progra-,, was ,,-ent.lMId ,... M1..meoften than were petitions.

oacmusionsIn consonance with the above results,

we think that: !) the most effectivemethod for students to effect changes irn

governmental policies is to engage inlobbying, either in person or in writing,or to participate in electoral politics, and2) a student strike is doomed to totalfailure when aimed at the government

By Robert Hunter,Norm Sandler andDavid Tenenbaum

With the apparent escalation of thewar in Indochina, students across thenation have of late been spurred toprotest and dissent against the Nixonadministration and its policies in South-east Asia, which have allegedly hamperedan immediate end to the war.

During April, student leaders called fornationwide strikes and anti-war actions toprotest this most recent development in awar which has been marked by minrimualpublic support for involvement, studentand campus unrest, and a call for solidari-ty by anti-war leaders.

-' It was this same sentiment which in1970, during the controversial incursioninto Cambodia by American and SouthVietnamese ground forces, closed downmany colleges and universities long beforethe scheduled end of their academicyears. Would this same type of activityoccur this year? Would student unrestcause the Nixon administration or Con-gress to act immediately to end the war?These are the questions which observerswere asking at the beginning of the latestincrease in anti-war actions, on and offthe college campuses; Particularly, shoulda university close down, how would itaffect the decision-makin~g in 'Washing-ton?

Proponents of the nationwide studentstrike assert that Washington politicianscan not help but listen to the massivewaves of discontent. Many feel that,faced with the'possibility of a large-scaleshiat-down of our academic institutions,government, by virtue of its relationshipwith the populace, must listen andrespond to demands.

On the other hand, opponents of thestrike and related anti-war actions insistthat although they mna .personally have-strong anti-war sentimeittS, actions of thistype (ioe. --of the type -advocated by th~eactivists) will not be heeded in Washing-ton, and will not bring the war to anearlier end.

One of the underlying questions, theZLhes:;s for this stud~y and an issue whichmust be resolved by the demonistrators aswell as the university admidnistrators andthe public, is "what effect does the stik/eand anti-war activity have on govern-mental decisionfreaking at the presenttime?" -To address this issue of primeimportance to nearly everyone at present,this study was hastily but carefullymobilized, to provide answexs to pressingquestions as soon as, possible.

Officials were questioned as to theeffect which the student strikes andrelated actions had upon their personaldecision-making,- that of their Congres-sional colleagues, and the impact whichthey saw the actions as having on theWhite House, where the influence wouldobviously -be most important. Theresponses were subjective, and provided agreat deal of insight into the evaluation ofthe overall effect on Capitol Itifl. Inaddition to questions pertaining to theproposed strike, the investigation was alsoconcerned with the determination of ef-fective alternative modes of protest otherthan a university strike, and specificallythose modes which are most infiuentialupon officials in Washington.

Preliminary findingsFrom our investigation, we conclude

that a general strike by the student st onthe MIT campus would not be an effec-tive means of influencing governmentalpolicy decisions. In addition, the con-

To the editor:What is to follow has been written to

encourage you to elect MIT students tothe Coop Board of Directors by simplyvoting for one of them.

One might ask: "What is the Board ofDirectors and what does -it do?" Theanswer is not: "Oh, it's just anotherpolitician's opening to fill in." The Boardis composed of 2 3 directors: I11 studentsof Harvard, Radcliffe, or MIT, ilnon-student members , and the GeneralManager. The Board manages thebusiness of the Coop. This includesadeciding on prices of items such as booksand records, and deciding oa how laxge arebate should be distributed.

Being an MIT student who spends a

sensus of the officials questioned is thata large-scale strike of this sort would, ifanything, have adverse effects on Con-gress, at least from the point-of-view ofthe anti-war movement. A member of theDemocratic Study Group, when askedabout the effects of the strike in Washing-ton, said that "strikes don't influenceCongress into taking any particuhr actionon a specifict issue such as the war. .. infact, they are detrimental if anything."He cited the events surrounding the USinvolvement in the war as having the mostinfluence, and said that "strikes create anegative perception of student activity bymany Congressmen." In addition to theopinion expressed by' the DemocraticStudy Group, a simifflar view was held byan aide to Senator James Buckley(C-NY), who emphasized that "a group of.15, 20 or I O0 radical students taking over'a building just doesn't get the hairs up onthe necks of many persons in Congress."

In general, student strikes attempt toaccomplish -the three following objec-tives:

(I1) Demonstration of widespreadopposition to the war.

(2) Bringing pressure to bear onWaslhington by closing down academicinstitutions and causing a general soci-etal disruption.

(3) Allotting students sufficienttime to carry on other anti-war activi-ties.In Washington, we found that each of

the three point§ above was contested bymany of the officials to whom we spoke.As far as the demonLstration of wide-spread anti-war opposition is concerned,many concurred with the opinion ofSenator Edwvard Brcoke (R-Mass), that"strikes are effeztive only if they repre-sent all -'members of the community."Most of the off'cials questioned wereskeptical about the actual amount ofOpposition which is reflected nationwideby a student strike; and Bruce Wheihan}Assistant White House Press Secretary,explained that, "the effect of the strike islocal... the only thin d s being affectedare the students and academic life, andnot thle rest of the people." US Rep. FredSchwengel (R-Iowa), stated that theNixon adm'mLstration do , not really per-ceive an increase in anti-war opposition,even with the recent strikes and actions."He [Nlxon] doesn't think there is anincrease in opposition to the war. .. andclosing down the schools does not accom-plish that "

Results of the investigation imply thatstudent strikes have marginal influenceoff the college campuses, in as much as aLanited amount of pressure is brought tobear on Washington, The limited pressureapplied to the Hill by the strike may beattribuded to an alleged "isolation" of the

academic c omm unities throughout thenation - the 'Ivor y Towers' syndrome.Assistant Press Scnretary Whelihan told ushe feels "College students don't have tieswith the community, and there is nopersonal interface between the twogroups." James Buckley's aide continuedalong- these lines, "Peopl e outside theuniversity community really don't followthe goings-on very closely... your worldis really quite ielated from the rest of

Admittedly, public pressure may bebrought to bear on Washing,on decision-making through disruption of the socialfunction (i.e. a general strike). However,all of thne ffici.l a cntmaceted expressedgrave doubts that the resUlts of a studentstrike could approach those of a generalstrike, which would include students as

well as workers, business, etc. "The Pmcsi-dent'is determined, and is influenced byoverall public opinion." Mr. Whelihanexplained, "but he is not going to changea policy if one group is mobilized againstthe war-" He also made the poita thatstudents are but a single special interestgroup, and would probably not initiate awidespread general strike. The impor-tance of widespread local opinion isUndeniable in this case, but Senator JohnTunney (D-Calif:) said that "the strike willnot mobilize local opinion."

AlternativesIf held, it is true that a stQrike would

give people more time flexibility to pur-sue other anti-war activities. The issueraied here is whether (a) this is ia fact avalid reason for calling a strike (i.e. is itnecessary to halt university functioningto achieve this goal) or (b) other atieron-tives can be found which will allow astudent desiring to express his opinion anopportunity to do so.

Investigatio n revealed unanimous con-sensus that -a strike is in fact the leasteffective mode for influencing govern-mental 'decisions. On the basis of theinterviews, we contend that there existother practical alternatives which legis-lators see as being far more -effective uponthem and their colleagues.

DemonsatiorsOne of the most popular 'alternatives

to university strikes (and often an off-shoot) has been the massive demon-stration, which activists have used to rallysupport for anti-war s entiment. Usingtheir size as an index of popularity, thedemonstrations have been used as anattempt to generate pressures on Washing-ton, and in. this way are very similar tothe objectives of the strike. the simi-larity, however, extends to the way inwhich legislators view the protests - theyno longer have the impact or the credi-bility which they once possessed. There-fore, demonstrations have reached a stateof ineffectiveness, compared to -thatwhich they once possessed, with respectto their influence upon decision-makers.A minority of the Congressmen contactedwere of the opinion that although studentdemonstrations may be ineffective now,demonstrations of the type led by theVietnam Veterans Against the War gainedthe attention of Congress, by virtue ofthe fact that those who were partitipatinghad first-hand knowledge of the ssue athand. An aide of Senator Harold Hughes(D-Iowa) said that for a demonstration tobe influential it should involve personslike the Vietnam Veterans, who wouldmake legislators attentive tO demands.

One 'of Representative ' ShirleyChisolm's-(D-NY) aides sid that demon-strations nh Washington are ike an indus-try in that they have become "dry andcatalogued." Senator Robert Griffin's(R-Mich) press secretryT stated, "SenatorGriffin has no reactions to the currentdemonstrations," and an aide to SenatorJohn Stenrns (D-L_ ) emphatically told usthat "nobody likes demonstrations."

CampaigningThe one alternative open to students

which was most widely advocated by avast -major'ity of the Congressmen andlaw-makers contacted ,was that of "ex-pressing discontent through the ballotbox." An aide, of Senator Strom Thur-mond (R-SCI told us, "Senator Thur-mend takes the view that this is the mostinformed generation America has, everseen with the most opportunity to effecta change In the country. Due to theeighteen year-old vote and increased tele-vision and newspaper coverage of nationalevents, this generation is more involvedthan any previous generation."

Senator Edw ard Kennedy (D-Mass) ex-pressed a view similar -to that of Thur-mond; according to his legislative assis-tant Mark Schneider, Kennedy feels that"'working for someone 1Lke McGovernwould be an effective means for studentsto effect pol/cy changes-" There appearedto be genuine concern on the Hill as tothe relative mnportance of the newly-franchised youth vote/in this year's elec-tions, but mo st of the persons we spoketo thought that the most influentialmeans was through the campaign, and asSenator Bueckey's aide stated, "'. thereal way to get into the political stuff isto work within the old-style political

(Continued from page 4}and decision-makers in Washington. Asharsh as it may sound for a nation"dedicated to many varying conceptionsof democracy," Capitol Hill would bealmost completely unaffected by a stu-dent strike. Though the student strikesmay receive nationwide media ecoverageand widespread public support, membersof Congress are not moved by suchisolated acts of protest, regardless of howextreme or otherwise noticeable to thegeneral public. The immediacy of actionssuch as strikes and massive demon-strations lead many people to believe thatpolicy-making in Washington can be al-tered by a single action. This belief ismost definitely not true. The Congressand the Executive branch of the goverma-ment are not as unstable in their policydecisions as the uninformed observer maysuspect; to affect these decisions will hklemore than an outcry from the academiccommunity.

Those attempting to act within aninstitution must understand the customsof that institution. Specifically, studentswishing to affect the national legislativeprocess must understand that Congressacts slowly, even on matters of greatimportance, and is wont to conductlengthy hearings, committee meetings,

and debates. Furthermore, there are aptto be siicani t time delays betweeneach of the above stages of the legislativeprocess. Those who wish to affect Con-gressolna legislation must have thepatience, wisdom, and credibility to staythe course and persevere through what attimes may appear to be an excruciatinglylethargic process.

However, lobbying and . campaigningon a continuous basis are indeed effcticveand should not be discounted for anyreason. Both of these tactics are aimed atthe base of political power - the ballotbox.

Long-terms efforts which have demon-strable effect on the legislative process,and through this process, on nationaldecision-rmaking, are lobbying and partici-pation in electoral politics. Those inter-viewed expressed the sentiment that forlobbying tio be effective it must closely beconnected with a current item on thelegislative calendar. Thus, lobbying for anend to the var is not effective; lobbyingfor passage of an amendment whichlegislates an end to the war is effective.The lobbyists must be well-prepared, in-foramed, and groomed in order to impressthe legislators. However, it must be em-phasized that non-constituent studentlobbyists attempting to influence letgis-

lators will have limited success, as most ofthose with whom we spoke stated expli-citly that they welcome lobbyists fromtheir home districts or states lbut do notnecessarily hold in the same regard thosefrom other parts of -the country whocome to their offices. Lobbying whichdoes not require as great an inrvestment intime and money as lobbying personaly inWashington would include letter writingand the subemission of petitions con-cemed with current legislative proposalsto the signers' Congressional repre-sentatives.

·A longer term involvement which, ifeffective, will definitely affect the nation-al decisionl-making process with respect toVietnam is active participation in theelectoral process. Election of a fResidentwho promises to end the war, and whocan be believed to fulfill his promise ifelected, is a certain method to end thewar. An effect on national policy mayalso be had by campaigning on otherlevels.

An ancillary question arises: What is tobe the response of the Institute to thosestudents who choose to become involvedin the political process? Some of thestud ents are concerned with increasingtheir political efficacy. This study showsthat they must turn to off-campus activi-

ties that involve the comrmitment of largeblocks of time and effort. Many con-cerned students may not be willing tocommit themselves to an effort of thismagnitude at the expense of their tuition.it is relevanrat to ask at this point ifstudents would be justified in expectingan allaowance of sorts that would mini-mize their academic sacrifice. Should aneducation at the institute be compatiblewith involvement in and study of themechanisms that operate the nation?

We believe that it should.

(The study discussed in this column wasdone by Robert Hunter, Norm Sandlerand David Tenenbaum, al members ofThe Tech staff, and was undertaken onbehalf of the Student Committee onEducational Policy {SCEP} and fundedthrough SCEP and the UndergraduateResearch Opportunities Program {UR OP).It was conducted in Washington, DC onApril 27-Aprl 29, 1972, and consisted ofinterviews with numerous Washingtonofficials. Over the course of the investi-gation, 26 legislators (I6 senators and IOrepresentatives} and/or their offices werecontacted, asq well as one White Houseofficial, in evaluating the effectiveness ofthe anti-war actions on the Washingtonpolitical scene. -Editor)

,FaCU ty opinions di££eron sepaced courses

Prospects for continuationand expansion of self-paced sub-jects at the Institute seem good,according to some faculty mem-bers currently teaching such sub-jects.

Professor Arthur Mattuck, aschairman of the UndergraduateMathematics committee, is incharge of the freshman calculusprogram he set up in 1970. Hetold The Tech that he was satis-fied with the self-paced ap-proach for a variety of reasons.Teaching calculus, he feels, con-sists to a large extent of teachingspecific techniques. The testingsystem is designed to ensure thatpeople taking the subject acquire"a certain minimum compe-tence." This, he says, is a verygood way of teaching freshmenon pass/fail, since otherwisestludents who had done poorlyon all the hour tests might passknowing little of the materialcovered. Since the problems on1 8.01-18.02 tests arecomparable to those used beforethe self-paced system, thestudents taking calculus have tclearn a good deal more than'previously.

On the question of aself-paced 18.03 - a favoriteidea of graffitti writers outsidethe undergraduate math office -Prof. Mattuck expressed doubts.The official response postedsays, "Self-pacing can distort theemphasis of a course badly, andthe Department is worried thatthis will happen with 18.03. In aself-paced course the exams areeverything and it is virtuallyimpossible to lecture onanything but straight exammaterial." In other words, the"general culture" aspect of thecourse, which the lecturers -Profs. Wan and Toomre - feel isimportant', could be lost.Mattuck feels that this would becatering to the "lowest level" ofstudent interest by reducing thesubject to pure problem'solving.Even as many people want this,it is hoped that some willbecome more interested duringthe term. Thus it seems thatexcept for . a few 18.03xsections, differential equationswill stay the way it is for awhile.

The only problem that18.01-18.02 faces at presentseems to be a case of the dreadSpring Fever: test taking, lectureattendance, and recitationattendance are all down fromthe fall. Some thought is beinggiven to the 8.02 system ofrequiring tests to be taken bycertain dates, but Prof. Mattucksays he'll probably first try"stern warning letters" to thosewho are behind. Alternatively,self-paced 18.02 might berestricted next year to studentswho had maintained a certainpace in 18.01. Other people,including those who haddifficulty in self-paced 18.02,could take it the standard way.

The other large self-pacedsubjects are Physics 8.01-8.02.Professor Victor Weisskopf, headof the Physics Department, wholectures in 8.02, admitted thathe had been unsatisfied with

8.01 this fall. There had beentoo many tests (eighteen), thecourse was not organized well,and a host of difficultiesoccurred, leading a detractor tolabel 8.01 "physics from aServend machine." In organizing8.02 many of these problemswere straightened out; forexample, the number of testswas reduced to seven. Weisskopfsees the rise in lectureattendance as a possibleconsequence. of theimprovements made. He alsohopes to increase student use ofrecitation sections for questionsrather than just for taking tests.

Prof. Weisskopf makes thepoint that 8.02 is not self-pacedin the true Keller Plan sense of atutor working with 10-15students. Rather, it is a lecturesubject where people have "acertain latitude in when theytake tests and do theirhomework." True self-pacingwould be impractical on such alarge scale, and it is not clear if itwould: in fact be more effective.8.01 and 8.02 will probably becontinued as they are now, withminor modifications.

The system seems to havebeen relatively effective inintroducing people to - thematerial. Since the subjectmatter in 12.00 is basicallymuch more descriptive than18.01 or 8.01, this representsthe use of self-pacing in adifferent type of subject. Theremay soon be more subjectsoffered - among othere there isa section of 17.21, Introductionto the American Political Processbeing given self-paced for thefirst time this spring.

Obviously the self-pacedsubjects which began asexperiments in 1969 have been ageneral, though not unqualified,success with faculty as well aswith students. It appears likelythat the number of self-pacedsubjects will continue to grow,perhaps becoming a new elementin the traditional cycle of changefrom small classes to lecturesand back.

Then came Simmonds'chanIce to crown a day of superbkicking with a long, steeply-angled penalty goal. He put Techahead ,18-1i6 and appeared to

give- the side room to breathe.Not so; with less than a minuteto play, Hartford were awardeda set scram at the MIT goal. Twoefforts were called back by theref. On the third set scrum,Hartford heeled the ball andtried MIT's weak side, only to bestopped by C.R. -PantouLious,who sent the ball into touch.Two line-outs later; MIT con-troled the ball and cleared it,and the match ended with Techthe exhuberant and deservingN-ctos im their most demandingmatch this spring.

_ The seconds' match was acarbon copy of the firsts' forthrilling, rapid pace_ J. Cremerand D. Clem shocked Hartfordbacks by appearing suddenly intheir midst again and again, andscrum-half M. Best and fly-halfA. Solish kept the ball zippingout to the Tech backline. Soliddefensive play by forwards O.M.Walker dd D.R. Licht bottled

up every Hartford rush. Neo-phyte full-back J. Wall keptTech knocking at Hartford'sdoor until winger T. Flanaganbounded over with a try in theright corner.

But the heady atmosphere offast, exciting play told on theTech side during the second half.The occasional breaks in disci-pline which excitement invari-ably breeds let Hartford slipthrough some 16 points to win164.

The seconds served 'notice,however, that they are about tobecome a winning team. Everyplayer turned in an excellentperformance, and it Was the con-certed opinion of spectators thatHartford won on breaks andbounces, not superiority.

Both MIT sides face the Port-land RFC this weekend in an-other travelling match. Not theleast of the Tech worries is thattheir backline and fast forwardswill be occupied with the Har-vard Business School's Seven-a-side Tournament. In past years,MIT has proved a formidablecontender in this blazingly fast,loose version of the game.

top-seeded player, has been con-sistently .besting the other topplayers in New England. Hisonly loss here in the north hasbeen to Harris Masterson '74 ofHarvard, who was forced tofight off five match points inorder to narrowly defeat Young,7-6, 5-7, 7-5. Young is lookingforward to future match-upswith Masterson in the next twoyears. Among Young's most im-pressive showings so far havebeen wins against Chris Warnerof Wrllians, 6-2, 7-6, and GaryMescon of Trinity, 3.6, 7-6, 6-1.On both occasions, Young's winwas the only match chalked upto MIT agaimst the opposition.

The number five seed,Simpson, has been playing prom-ising tennis. He is the only fresh-man on the varsity, a distinctionheld by Young last year. WhenStruhl, Youngs regular doublespartner, was sidelied with astrained shoulder Simpsonteamed with Young for twostrong wins against Colby andWesleyan.

The MIT men in white haveplayed fine tennis since return-ing north from their southerntrip. Recently the team pulledoff consecutive upsets againstWesleyan and Boston C-'ee.April also saw victories againstthe University of Connecticut,Bowdoin, Colby, and the Univer-sity of Massachusetts. Teams de-feating MIT were Harvayrd,Williams, Dartmouth, andTrinity. The team now has a 7-8record, 7-4 since the southerntrip.

The success of the team canbe attributed in large part to thecontributions of the many soph-omores who have moved up tokey positions. Youth is one ofthe team's most impressive fea-tures. Of the top eight. players,five - William Young, TedZouios, Kevin Stuhl, MikeLewis, and "/gaily Shjef'io -- aresophomores, and one, LeeSimpson, is a freshman . Further-more, while Lance Hellinger '73was injured early in the season,it was Gerard Lum, a sopho-more, who stepped in to helptake up the slack. Team captainGreg Withers is the only senior.
