Similarly, "The Federal Govern- ment," sad Senator Kuchel "is neither rich enough, enough, or fervent enough to shoulder the burden." Thus we must look elsewhere the Senator stated, for help. elseWhere, according to Kuchel is business and industry. ' Since the main idea of' the War on Poverty is to increase the self- sufficiency of the poor, Kuchel saw no reason against industry's cooperation. Listing the steps taken by the present minority in this direction, Kuchel praised the industries that had already cooperated under these laws to help the ghetto dweller help him- self. The answer to the problem, he said, is thus to increase' op- portunities. in which he said, "We want to get the brightest people we can get, and certainly some of the brightest people are women." Admission criteria The responses to the question "What will need to be done to ac: complish the admission of wom- en?" fell into roughly two major areas of concern. The first of these was the question of admis- sions procedures and how many would constitute an "ideal" num- ber of students. The strongest consensus on thiS' question was that there would be no changes in the academic admission pro- cedure, and that any woman en- tering Caltech would enter on the same basis as her male count- erparts. Further, f'rom the admis- sions standpoint alone, there would have to be at least a two- year delay from the time that any final decision regarding the admission of women was made until women were actually ad- mitted. Dean Jones was of the opinion that even if the deciS'ion to admit women were made to- morrow, it would still take until September, 1970, before any women could be admitted. Dean Jones stated that it was already too late to have any hope of hav- ing women enter Caltech in Sept- ember, 1968, since it is too late to notify any women who might be interested in admission to forward progress being made. Problem for youth Kuche! aiso attacked the hip- pies for their lack of commit- ment to the ghetto problem. The average age of the population in Watts, he pointed out, was 14, demonstrating that the ghetto is really "the problem of tomor- row's citizen, much more than it is of today's." Repeatedly he call- ed for the dedication and support of today's youth. Emphasizing the financial as- pect of the situation, the senior Senator from California explain- ed that only two percent of total growth in the U.S. is within the city proper, showing the reluct- ance of' industry to settle there thus far. "Deteriorating housing" is becoming more prevalent, and fighting poor housing costs tax dollars. And Kuchel said that ghetto-dwellers are high-cost citizens in terms' of the money they drain from federal and state welfare programs. by Jim Cooper The administration of the Cali- fornia Institute of Technology is of the opinion that w 0 men should be admitted to the In- stitute as undergraduates. The big question remaining is exact- ly how and when women under- graduateS' s h 0 uId be admitted. This is the consensus of the opinions garnered by interviews with va rio us administratve heads. Specifically, the adminis- tratorS questioned about their opinions were Dr. Lee A. Du- Bridge, President; Dr. Robert F. Bacher, Provost; L. W. Jones, Dean of Admissions; Dr. Peter M. Miller, Associate Director of Ad- missions; Paul C. Eaton, Dean of Students; Foster Strong, Dean of Freshmen; and Dr. Robert A. Huttenback, Master of' Student Houses. The response to the question, "Do you think Caltech S'hould eventually admit women as un- dergraduates?" was unanimously affirmative among the adminis- trators interviewed. Dr. Du- Bridge stated that he would cer- tainly support the faculty's re- commendation that women ev- entually be admitted. Dr. Miller stated that he was pleased at the idea that women may be admit- ted. Perhaps the view of the ad- ministration on this question could best be summed up by a statement made by Dean Jones Female Late But - Research U.S. Senator Thomas H. Kuc- hel (R-Cal.) concluded in a Cal- tech YMCA-Sponsoed speech last Thursday night that the solution of the ghetto problem lies in the cooperation of business and in- dustry with the War on Poverty to increase opportunities for ghetto-dwellers. The two-hour speech, entitled "The Ghetto: Brinkmanship or Commitment?", emphasized the exposure of the general public to the conditions of the ghetto by first-hand observation. The Senator was convinced that no longer can treatment of the ghet- to be merely "brinkmanship," that is, paying attention to its problems only when it erupts. According to Senator Kuchel, the only solution to the "Blight of the American City" lies in the involvement of go ve rn men t, business, labor, ghetto residents', and complete outsiders. He con- demned black militarists, calling them "incendiaries," and pointed out that uprisings set back any tangling in red tape. They may be cinvinced later that this need not happen. - The project is very, very ambitious, a bit too ambitious. Something more rea- sonable should have been chosen such as an Arroyo project. A specific portion of' the smog problem might be easier to handle.

p€r?"This is not a blot on the paper;

it is a blot on the student bodyin general. When the Tech per­formed its "experiment" wit hthe phony articles a while ago, Iheard s€veral people laugh andcomment that all that was prov­ed was that nobody reads the pa­per. So who should be ashamedof that? Not the Tech, for she isstill deluged with subscriptions,and advertisers s till back her.Clearly it proved that those samepeople who laugh every Thurs­day are uninformed, apathetic,and selfish with their time.

The only request I have is achallenge. I chall€nge those inthe student body who are so cri­tical to take a pen in their handssome weekends, rather than agirl, a beer, or a pipeful of grass.And if they - "the most brilliantstud€nts in America" - are toolazy or selfish to do so, then I'dlike them to kindly shut theircynical traps when I'm around.

Tom Carroll, '71Though we discou.rage such

griping from our overworkedstaff members, and though wedo not agree with everything Mr.Carroll says, he is correct in im­plying that the Tech welcomethe e f fort s of interested rs'tu­dents. Unfortunately, only aboutten people can ,really be calledactive staff members.

Editors:Having worked on a student

publication for aIm 0 s t threeyears, I can justifiably say thatI know the amount of work ittakes to turn out a good paper.A student must either truly en­joy the journalistic trade or bestrongly committ€d to the ideol­ogy behind student publicationsin order to stick with the gruel­ing task of meeting the deadlineeach week. If there are enoughstudents around who m€et eitheror both of these qualifications,the school's paper will be a goodone; otherwise, the effort will befutile, for a newspaper is un­doubtedly a team effort, not aon€-man show.

I think it is common knowled­ge that the California Tech is notexactly the hottest press releasewest of the Mississippi. As a staffwriter for this paper, I can ex­pect this to be th€ case. With astudent body of only about 800students and most of them work­ing day and night on classwork,Caltech is not the place for agreat newspaper to nest. Yet theTech performs an indispensabl€servicE'. Over this term it haskept the readers informed of theresearch project, sports ev€nts,and activities at Beckman Audi­torium, just to give a few ex­amples. Granted that the layout,the headlines, and even the arti­cl€s are sometimes poor, but attwo in the morning on Mondaynight I doubt that anyone couldexpect Les Fishbone to be tooimaginative.

ply. Part of the explanation forthis is that, with experience, thePeac€ Corps is increasingly ableto predict w hat qualificationslead to success overseas, and isselecting only the most highlyqualified applicants.

One of th€ best testimonialsto the success of the Peace Corpsis the reaction of a group of re­turned volunteers to a question­naire distributed by the PeaceCorps last y€ar. Out of 4,260 whohad completed service, 94% saidthey would join again if they hadthe decision to make over.

Students who are interested inlearning what they can do in thePeace Corps can talk with aformer volunteer by dialing 380­4040, Nov. 27-Dec. 9. Informationwill be mailed on requ€st.

The Boards of Supervisors ofLos Angeles and Orange Coun­ties hav€ declared December 4-9Peace Corps Week, and over 20former Peace Corps volunteerswill be in the Los Angeles areain an intensive information cam­paign and s€arch for qualified ap­plicants.

The six-year-old agency, found­ed by the late President Ken­nedy, has had remarkable suc­cess during its short history inhelping developing nations tosolve their probl€ms. This suc­cess is reflected in the growthof the Corps itself - from lessthan 600 volunteers in e i g h tcountries in 1961, to nearly 15,­000 in 58 countries at present,working in ov€r 400 job categor­ies.Rapid Growth

But even this rapid growth hasnot kept up with requests forvolunteers from developing na­tions. The Peace Corps estimatesthat next year it will receiverequests for 2000 more volun­teers than it will be able to sup-

Merry ChristmasThe onset of first term finals is a sure sign that the holiday

season is upon us. Families will reunite, the cares of ordinarylife will be forgotten, and the American industrial complex willreceive its annual shot-in-the-arm from Christmas shoppers.

Meanwhile, 10,000 miles away, 500,000 not-so-Iucky Amer­icans will be hunting and destroying "dissident" Vietnamese.This year's seniors are scared silly that they might soon numberamong them, especially those whose II-S draft deferments ex­pire in June, not September.

But this fear is premature. Most likely, the Administra­tion in Washington will decide that graduate students in mathe­matics, physics, chemistry, and engineering should continue toreceive deferments. This provides an interesting commentary onthe American system: those whose professional training has po­tential ities for producing a better war-oriented technology getdeferred; on the other hand, those who are trained in the liberalarts and social sciences-those whose training makes them best­suited for promoting peace--get drafted.

Around the cornerIt. is of course not necessary to travel to Vietnam to find

not-so-Iucky Americans. One merely has to travel to the nearestsizable city. But we recognize that the American technocracywill not profit nearly so much from a War on Poverty as it doesfrom a war on peasants. But this is not true. Experts estimatethat trillions of dollars are required to make America's citiesIivable. But then the return on such an investment, though offar more value, would not accrue as quickly as does the returnfrom "hot war" investments.

Senator Eugene McCarthy's candidacy for the DemocraticPresidential nomination provides that party with an alternativeif the Democrats desire to win in 1968. For unless somethingradical happens before November vis-a-vis South Vietnam, Pres­ident Johnson will be unable to reply successfully to Republicancandidates when they remind America that the only thing BarryGoldwater did wrong in 1964 was to tell the truth.

Even Teckers will be able to get involved in the heated poli­tics of the coming year. In June a crucial primary election willoccur in California. Precinct walkers will be needed to help swaythe voters of the nation's most populous state. Will studentstake the opportunity to do something meaningful for a change?

Americans will soon be a home for Christmas dinner,assured that peasants are dying in Vietnam, that the mil itary­industr:al complex is prospering, and that citizens are beingdenied their rights here. Eat hearty, America.

During the first term, a char­acter called Edward B. Barrel­maker of the Mythological Insti­tute of Theocracy has enteredupon the Caltech scene throughthe aperture of this column. Peo­ple here may have noticed a simi­larity between the happenings atTheoc and those here at Caltech.This similarity was not coinci­dental, as explained in previouscolumns. In any event, thou­sands of avid readers' of this col­umn have come to look forwardto it each week, and their re­sponse had been tremendouslyapathetic. (How many timeshave I heard that word lately?)

My purpose in stepping out ofcharacter for a week, and writ­ing as my own inimitable self, isthre·efold. First, I wish to keepclear the distinction between my­self and Barrelmaker. After all,I am a Cooper and not a Barrel­maker. Second, I wish to makesome suggestions I have for themaintenance of Caltech, and Iwish to make those suggestions'very clear and distinct. Third, Iwish to find out if anyone actu­ally reads this column.

To accomplish the third, I wishto make the following request ofanyone who actually has readthis far in the column.

Cooper In Personnae

by Cince

On a cold Tuesday evening lastweek at 10:00 p.m., members ofthe Pasadena City Fire and Po­lice Departments participated inthe gala wake for Interhouse '67held by residents of Page House.

Eight units of the PasadenaCity Fire Department, includingthe Chief's car, and six units ofthe Pasadena City Police Depart­ment responded briskly to an in­vitation allegedly extended tothem by a member of either Rud­dock or Lloyd House. rt seemsthat this said member had mis­taken Page's efficient and highlyexpedient method for the remov­al of effluvia left over from In­terhouse - that is, the use of afuneral pyre - to be an actualattempt to remove the effluviaof the new houses themselves.Stupid Ashes

The fire, built in the PageHouse courtyard, was - as isusual when it comes to the hand­ling of non-scientific practicalmatters by Techers - very in­efficient in the actual reductionof Interhouse to ashes, and veryefficient, in the production ofvoluminous quantities of smoke.rt was evidently the quantitiesof smoke pouring through theventilation system of the newHouses which prompted the ex­tending of the invitation.

Unfortunately, by the time thecivil service employees had ar­rived, the Phages had decidedthat Interhouse had been proper­ly honored and, incidentally ofcourse, that the smoke was get­ting to be detrimental to theirhealth, so they had extinguishedthe blaze using their own de­vices. The civil service men werevery put out by the fact that theparty was over by the time theyarrived, and left in a great huffhalf an hour later.

Purposescretely expressed of the day."Israel has a right to exist andalways has," he said, "and thesplit of the left over whom tosupport is proof of the logicalbankruptcy of liberalism."

He snapped at this opportunityto expose a gap in the opposi­tion's ranks. "The phonies stilloutnumber the true liberals.When (New York Sen.) Jake Ja­vits can be a dove in Vietnamand, at the same time, be all forrushing to the aid of Israel, youknow that the left is not beinghonest."

'Phonies on Both Sides'Goldwater conceded that phon­

ies could be produced from con­servative as well as liberal ranks'but declined to put his finger onany specific group or individual."All of our office-holders arehonest men," he intoned cauti­ously, "but stands on political is­sues today are dependent uponwhat comes out of' the computer-what will draw the mostvotes."

When the subject of honestyin politics arises, the former sen­ator is the· first to admit that hisfrankness in the '64 campaignmay have lost him s'ome votes. Afidelity between what is thought,said and done by politicians heattributes to "a younger nationwith a stronger pioneer spirit,"akin, he agrees, to the U.S. be­tween Revolution and Civil War.

Despite his expressed faith inthe youth of today, Goldwater'sview of the U.S. as an aging na­tion falling prey to more corrup­tion and less responsibility con­stitutes a pretty grim forecast."Every major nation has declin­ed this way," he said, pointedlyignoring any mention of Amer­ica as an exception.

'I don't Knows' BelievableThe former senator often dis­

plays a unique sincerity in say­ing "I don't know" in are a swhere other politicians mightmake their "I don't knows"sound knowing.

An Arizonan always, Gold­water has a whole way of expres­sing himself which is entirelyWestern. His gestures, tone ofvoice and f'avorite colloquialismsall add to his consercative im­age. When he speaks without aprepared text, which is his usualprocedure, there is a unique qual­ity in his presentation that is atonce sncere and old-fashoned.

The most common malady at­tributed to his campaign in 1964was his inability to say what hemeant - especially when speak­ing off the cuff'. If this be true,the increased sincerity of his ex­temporaneous style may be view­ed as somewhat of a personaltragedy.

Goldwater's western mannercame out strong when the topicof conservation arose. As a re­cent author of a work dealingwith the natural wonders of hisown state, the former senatoremphasized his conservationistviews, but added, "The needs ofpeople outWeigh the nee d s ofthose who love the outdoors."Shifting his frame of reference,he said, most people don't knowhow to treat our national parksanyway. The mess you see in ournicest national parks shows howpeople don't appreciate them."

Conservation Stand DefensiveThe Arizonan's concern for the

development of his own statemay contribute to the dilemmahe faces in equating conservationwith conservatism in his ownphilosophy. "That's one of mypet subjects," he was quick tointerject, and proceded to defendhis views as more conservation­ist oriented than the 1i b era 1view.

Editors' Note: The CLARE·MQNT CQLLEGIAN of Fri·day, October 27, 1967, printedthis very candid intervileWwith Barry Goldwater. The in·terviewer, Doug Montgomery,is the editor of that paper. Wereprint it he.re for the edifica·tion of our readers, notingthat comprehensive conserva·tive view points have not yetbeen represented at Caltechthis year.

By Doug Montgomery

Barry Goldwater is a man whocampaigned very frankly for theAmerican presidency and, frank­ly, lost.

After that, the whole historybecome's just a bit hazy. TheGoldwater image that penentra­ted the national news mediawas one of spontaneous calls foraction, usually extreme. EvenGoldwater himself will admitthat "had I been exposed to thesame image that the averagevoter received, with no furtherinformation, I probably wouldn'thave voted for Goldwater."

Last Tuesday, the ClaremontColleges had a chance to see ifthe Goldwater philosophy wasany clearer at the sender's endthen at the receiver's. Removedfrom the din of the speaker'splatform and campaign rally, theCOLLEGIAN was allowed to f'ol­Iowan unhampered line ofquestioning with the for mersenator on topics of greatest reolevance to college students ­and to an understanding of theGoldwater credo.

Opposes Draft"I have sat down with Max

Lerner (whom most people, I'msure, consider a liberal) in thepast and found where we couldagree on many issues," he says.Yet this is a man who receivedthe title of "arch-conservative"during the '64 campaign. Hisviews on the draft, black power,the Supreme Court, the Mid-eastconflict and other issues amplifythe paradox of Goldwater's "con­servative" philosophy.

The Arizonan makes no bonesabout opposing the d r aft."There's no reason," he said,"why the draft can't be abolishedand replaced with a professionalmilitary system. As long as themilitary remains under ultimatecivilian control, we have nocause to fear ocrruption in a pro­fessional army."

"The draft law can't be over­haUled," he said. "P res ide n tJohnson appointed a committeeto study the draft and make re­commendations for reform. Therecommendations didn't mentionmuch more than had alreadybeen mentioned - so we stillhave largely the same old draftlaw."

Goldwater's sympathy, how­ever, for those who seek to defythe draft was nil. He especiallyvented his disgust at black pow­er advocates who have sought tomake the war a racial issue. The

(Continued from page 1)the past twenty-five years hadnot been according to his hopes,and that he had hoped that Ger­many and Japan could be defeat­ed and then that mankind couldfind its way to peace. Mankinddid not learn how to maintainpeace, however.

But if the Manhattan Projectwere starting today, Dr. Christywould still work on it. His rea­sons were the following: "One,the future of atomic energy isstill apt to be of major import­ance for mankind and we cannotforego such a development. Two,we still hope that the presence ofatomic weapons serves as a post­tive influence toward peace sinceit renders full-scale war so ir­rational. Third, I do not believethat the development of atomicenergy and atomic w e a p 0 n scould have been avoided - itcould only have bee'll delayed byour non-participation." He con­cluded by observing that hewould be more concerned aboutthe future if he had suspectedin 1942 what he now knew, butthat "My con c ern, however,would be more about tht inabil­ity of our political institutions toaccomodate in any way to thetechnological devlopments associ­ated with atomic en erg y andatomic weapons."

Atoms for Peace

Proposal submittedConcerning the project itself,

the pilot project funds proposalis almost finished and will besubmitted by the end of theweek. Development is workingwith the funds committee to pol­ish up this proposal, which willask for $110,000.

Last weekend, Joe Rhodes andMike' Garet participated in twoEast Coast project meetings'. Thefirst, held at Columbia, includedstudents from such schools asHarvard, Yale, M.LT., Columbia,Cornell, and Radcliffe. Most ofthose present were social sciencemajors and were quite enthusi­astic. Mike Garet believes thatthey will be able to pro v idemuch insight into the workingsof' the project and was quite im­pressed by the multitude of ap­proaches that they offered forsolving its problems. He believesthat such an interdisciplinary ap­proach will solve many of theproblems that will arise. A num­ber of these social science stu­dents are making plans to comehere during gecond term. Thesecond meeting, held at CarnegieInstitute, was similarly success­ful.

ject did interfere with Houseloyalties or activities. While thissample of people is small, com­pared to the number covered bya poll, their comments do sug­gest that a number of' people arenot satisfied with the project atthe present time.

They find it hard to ac­cept as consistent a man who canpoint to many areas of agree­ment with avowed liberals andblankly predict that "history willrecord me as one of the era's true'liberalg" and subsequently af­firm, "I consider myself a conser­vative."

The Goldwater philosophy, ifmanner of presentation, sincerityand consiste'llcy can be any cri­teria, appears to rest on intui­tion rather than any well-pat­terned model for political belief.

Removed from the din of thespeaker's platform and campaignrally, the Goldwater credo runsas honest and spontaneous as theman who embraces it. In a poli­tical atmosphere where atten­tion to precision and consistencyis held in such brutal import­ance, this in itself is a marvel.

Plans must be laidAll in all, the administration

has not yet had the opportunityto begin a meaningful investiga­tion of thE' subject with the fac­ulty that would produce a de­tailed plan upon which a deci­sion as to the admission of wom­en could be made. Then, it stillwould be at least two years fromthat decision before womencould actually be admitted, as­suming of course' that any facilit­ies deemed necessary by the plancould be made ready in twoyears' time. Perhaps the bestsummation of the administra­tion's views was given by Dr.Bacher when he said, "We willhave to make' sure we have aplan which will really be as suc­cessful a program for the admis­sion of women undergraduatesas we are able to plan."

The final decision in the mat­ter will rest with the Board ofTrustees. Dr. DuBridge s tat e dthat there would probably be atle'ast informal discus'sion of thequestion at the next Board meet­ing in January. He did state,however, that there was the pos­sibility that the Board might acton this matter at its next meetingby taking the matter under con­sideraion and appointing a com­mitte to work with the admini­stration and faculty to develop adetailed plan. Only when a de­tailed plan was worked outwould the Board act decisivelyon the matter.

ing, and that its experiencesince it is perhaps the closest.approximation to Caltech in theUnited States - would be themost valuable in such a study.Dr. Bacher, who has alreadydone some preliminary study ofthe MIT experience, stated thatfor many years the number ofwomen undergraduates at MIThad been very small; and thatonly recently, after completion ofwomen's residence facilities, hadthe percentage of women under­graduates risen over five per­cent. Dr. Bacher mentioned thatthe people from MIT with whomhe had talked said that they ex­pected the number of wome'll toincrease again as soon as moreresidence facilities were com­pleted..

Dr. Huttenback was of theopinion that facilities for thehousing of women undergrad­uates could be found immediate­ly; either in off-campus' Institute­owned homes, or on campus onthe second floor of one of thenew Houses. He did state, how­ever, that eventually permanentarrangements for their housingwould have to be made - per­haps with the conversion of oneof the four proposed new grad­uate houses into a women's com­bined gra,duate and undergrad­uate residence. Both Dr. Du­Bridge and Dr. Bacher statedthat any temporary housing ar­rangements were usually veryexpensive and not satisfactory,and both felt that a permanentsolution would have to be foundbefore women were admitted.Dr. DuBridge stated there are atpresent no funds' in sight for theconstruction of a women's under-grad dorm, since most of themoney which hopefully will beraised by the fund drive has al­ready had specific purposes allot­ted to it.

John Healy managed to winthe 50-yard breaststroke heat ina respectable :33.8, slightly morethan a second off of B. Johnsen'srecord :32.4. Blacker's Walt Far­rell, a fine swimmer, tripped the50-yard butterfly in the :30.6, only1.4 se'cond off J. Russu's IH rec­ord.

Caltech's varsity basketballteam is off to a rather lack-lusterstart this season. Through fourgames thus far the BeaveTs havemanaged but one victory whiledropping three games by con­vincing margins. The season's'opener was at home againstSouthern California College. SCChanded CIT a loss, despite a 23point spree by senior TerryBruns. Major weaknes'ses whichproved costly to the B e a v e r swer poor passing and too fre­quent let downs by the defense.

The Teckers won on their nexttime out, however, when theytravelled to LIFE College andteam. Again Bruns' led all scorerswith 28 points.

Monday night the Engineerswere home again to host La­Verne College. CIT, relinguishedan eight-point half time lead asLaVeTne came roaring back andmanaged a 91-78 victory goingaway. In this game the Beaverslooked really impressive. Theirpassing improved greatly overthe first two games; the defensealso was much better (especiallyin the first half.) The decidingfactor in the Caltech loss was thefact that the Beavers had eightturnovers the first sixteen timesthey got the ball in the secondhalf. Bruns' hot hand continuedas he hit for 31 points. Also,Tech's hustling guard, JimStanley, exhibited some fantasticoffensive moves while scoring inthe double figures.

The day following the LaVernegame the Beavers journeyed toBiola College where they sustain­ed their worst recent loss, 98-71.CIT's next outing is tonightwhen they host Cal Baptist atScott Brown Gymnasium.

Awards Banquet of the Califor­nia Institute of Technology willbe held on tomorrowevningstarting at 6:30 p.m. in the PageHouse Dining Room. Tribute willbe paid to lettermen and out­standing performers in Caltech'sfour fall sports - cross country,football, soccer, and water polo.

The Banquet is a traditionallylively gathering, usually presid­ed over by some member of theInstitute's Committee of Ath­letics and Physical Education. In­variably, the Director of Athlet­ics makes a "short" speech com­mending the teams - coaches,players, managers - no matterwhat their final records' turnedout to be.

After the DA's tirade, thecoaches of the individual teamscome forth to tell jokes whicharen't always funny but whichare always fairly "gross", tothank the DA for his generouspraise, and to pres'ent the playerswhich form his team with theirawards.

Finally, a representative ofeach team usually demands andgets time with which to acknowl­edge the team's appreciation ofthe coaches' teaching, advice, andlong-suffering. This appreciationalmost always takes the formof a consumable liquid designedto restore the coaches' spirits.
