By Richard CutlerS Dr. sammud J. Todes, former-

ly professor of philosophy at MIT,ill deliver a lecture entitled

'TechnologY and the Ideology ofSuccess' in the Vannevar BushRoom (]0-105) Tuesday, October25, at 8 pm. The lecture is pre-sented jointly by the Couse XXISociety and the Society for SocialResponsibility in Science.

Dr. Todes taught at -MIT forseven years and. last year re-ceived the Everett Moore BakerAward for Excellence in Under-graduate Teaching. Dr. Todes isthe authcr of several articles pub-lished in professional journals,and of a book on the 'Naturalphilosophy of the Human Body,'which will be published in 1967 by

the Northwestern University Pressas part of the series, Northwest-em Studies in Phenomenologyand Exdstential Philosophy. Dr.Todes is presently working on aDanforth Foundation Grant tostudy the social and religious im-plications of his 'Natural Philoso-phy,' which is a study of thebody's role in our knowledge ofobjects. He will be teaching atBrandeis and at Yale this spring.

In his lecture, Prof. Todes willtry to show the interconnectionbetween the nature of the tech-nological mentality and our con-temporary American ideology ofsuccess, and correspondingly thatthe limitations of the ideology ofsuccess reflect the limitations ofthe technological mentality.

Evidently, this opinion wasnot shared by the department,for last year Dr. Lettvin wasawarded a full professorship inboth the department of Biologyand the department of ElectricalEngineering. Interestingly enough,he claims "I don't know why theydid it."

not confined to physiological in-quiry, but are sufficiently amor-phous to include "whatever seemsamusing at the time." For ex-ample, he has been c ommissim-ed to write magazine articles("m' g ess. agys on. someLhingI know very little about"), iscurrently writing a paper onLeibnitz's monodology, and is al-so engaged in translating a Ro-

One of the items on November'sMassachusetts ballot is a proposal backed

. by organized labor to repeal the sales- tax passed by the state legislature dur-o ing the last session.- Proponents of the sales tax are quick

' to point out that at least part of thesales tax burden falls on 'tourists' whoO- presumably flock to the state each sum-

O mer and buy millions of dollars worthof trinkets and souvenirs to lug home.

<: Although the politicians don't usuallyc mention it, we suspect that one varietyX of 'tourist' they are particularly pleased

to have shoulder the additional tax bur-den is the September .to June variety whoattend the state's outstanding (and somenot quite so outstanding) apvat uni.v.r.-

I sities and colleges.2 With one exception, the students- really shouldn't complain about bearingI a little of the cost of running the state's- public services. After all, any survey of

the public transportation systems, parks,beaches, and highways would show thatstudents get more than a little use outof these publicly financed and maintainedfacilities.

The present sales tax does not applyto purchases of food or clothing, so thetax's proponents claim that at least theyhave exempted life's necessities. Perhapsthey have, but it strikes us that for thecommon good of both Massachusetts' col-lege students and Massachusetts' citizensan exemption for books should havebeen included.

Somehow it just doesn't seem rightfor a state that boasts a city known as'The Athe'ns of America' (Boston), theoldest US college (Harvard), and theworld's best technically oriented univer-sity, to go. around taxing books.

It is true that textbooks are exempt,and heaven knows if you look hard en-ough you should be able to find an MITcourse which uses the book you don'twant to pay tax on. Just the same, trot-ting up to the Student Center Librarybefore you buy a book is a pain; whilefilling out the white slip that your surethe Department of Corporations andTaxation, Sales and Use Tax Bureau, willprobably never even look at is also annoy-ing.

Since college is the traditional timeto start a good personal library, manystudents will find the tax on non-text-books burdensome.

However, a better case can be madefor the exemption of books from thesales tax by looking at the state's popu-lation as a whole. Clothing and food areexempted because they are classified as

HolidayColumbus Day last week, and the In-

auguration the week before providedmost of the student body and facultywith a much appreciated break in classes.

Unfortunately, several instaniceswhere professors and instructors insistedthat students attend tutorials or classeson what had officially been designatedclass-free days have been brought to ourattention.

In'addition to these recent examples,many students are familiar with classesin the past that have been held duringthe hour set aside for the annual Christ-mas Convocation, during time alloted foran Awards Convocation, or during someother time which has been designated as'classes cancelled.'

We can understand the fact thatmany professors want to teach as muchas possible in an all too short term, butperhaps they should understand thatthe average student leads a hecticenough life that he will resent giving upithe holiays that te academi-le schedulethrows his way.

necessities. This seems strange since anyride on the MBTA will present a view ofonly well enough fed (mostly - over-weight) and well enough dressed citi-zens. In fact it is universally recognizedthat any skinny, shabbily (or sloppily)dressed person is bound to be a collegestudent. So it isn't evident that verymany Massachusetts citizens are not get-ting enough to eat and wear.

At the same time, a ride on theMBTA or a walk down a busy street withhis ear attuned to the conversationsaround him is enough to convince eventhe most casual observer that the aver-age citizen is more likely to be overfedthan over-read.

where else in America today, education,formal and informal, is of vital import-ance if the public is to be expected todeal intelligently with the issue andproblems facing the community.-

Therefore, we feel that Massachu-setts' legislature was more than a littleshort-sighted when it failed to includeall books and printed material in the listof 'necessities' exempted from the state'ssales tax.

Rat Week, corresponding toFreshman Week at many othercolleges, was a big success at theRichmond Professional Institute.The incoming "rats" were re-quired by juniors to perform cer-tain little tasks during the week.The requirements included wear-ing rat caps, hanging a signaround their neck beating theirname, home town, local address,telephone number, inajor, andage. They had to carry with themat all times an inflated ballooncarrying the autograph of at leastsix Juniors, a tmthlhti'lh, bah- ybottle, rat trap, and chewinggum. They must show respect byaddressing juniors as sir or mr'amand tipping their rat beanies. Asa bonus, they must memorize thedefinition of "rat."

Loch Ness at VPIThe local swimming hole at

Virginia Tech was declared un-safe for swimmiers when reportscirculated that monsters werelurking on the botton. An SOD(Save Our Duckpond) committeewas quickly organized to investi-gate the matter. Only after manylong hours of gathering and pond-ering data was the SOD able tounmask the monster. It seemsTech Skindiving Club had beenusing the pond for practice.

Rise and ShineThe difficult problem of getting

up in the morning has been solvr-ed by a University of Minnesotasenior. The Rev. Richard Koplowhas developed a super alarmclock he says will do "most any-thing."

The invention wviil siAtch lights,a television set, or hi fi on or offat predetermined times. It willwarm Koplow a cup of coffee be-fore he gets out of bed in themorning.

The alarm is also designed toawaken him and his wife at dif-ferent times. On Monday, Wed-nesday, and Friday it will get herup at 4 am and him at 8. OnTuesdays and Thursdays he willget up at 4 am and she at 9.

Rapid submersionTo the Editor:

A new action organization dedicated to the preservation of solitude and other inalienable right:has been born.

The Radically Active Participants in Deluging Sinners rapidsintends to create, as the acronymimplies, a water-fall for bathingviolators of the law.

The particular law referred to isthe one stating that no cycle engines are permitted to run in thealley behind Bexley Hall betweerthe hours of 8 pm and 8 am. TheCampus Patrol has had troubleenforcing this law in the past, builittle trouble is forecast in the fu.ture.

The law is not unfounded. Itrests on the principle that sturdyold Bexley (mostly old) shakes asa sail luffing in the wind when acycle charges through the alley.Also, with the Chapel wall actinglike a sounding board, the quiet-est engine becomes a deafeningroar. From this follows the re-quest that cyclists using the park-ing area within the prescribedtime bounds turn them off andwalk them.

Thus. fair warning has been is-sued. Either tow it or row it.

Koplow said he is buildirg itmerely for kicks and that he h !never taken an electronics ce in his life.

Missing persons

With a considerable amount fembarrassment, the C o o radoDaily, of the University of Colo.rado, printed an apology to tecampus police. Apparently a gilwho was reported missing Sat.day night was discovered - safeand sound - in the office of theDaily typing up a story at 4 aMonday. The Daily can boast ofat least one hard-working stanmember.

cian made history as the firstman ever to demonstrate in frontof the American Council on Edu.cation Building.

Robert G. Hoffman, PhD, ex.plained that in 1963 he was firedfrom the University of Florida,where he had been a researchassistant. professor in medicalstatistics. He went to the AAIUPfor assistance in getting his jobback. put the AAUP only madematters worse by writing severalletters which irritated the Univer.sity officials. Furthermore, itdouble-crossed him when, afterHoffman had lost several reviews and hiearings, they sent the Un versity a letter discharging them of the responsibility of their ac- tions. The AAUP told Hoffimanlater that the position was nolonger needed at the University,but Hoffman said that they laterhired someone else to do thesame job.

The protesting professor sooncaught the attention of many edu-cators and secretaries in thebuilding. Several passersby became interested, including threebearded youths.

"Hey, what's the AAUP?" oneasked. When told, another asked,"Is it Commie or Facist?"

No answer."Well, let's stamp it out," one

said, and off they drove.

Sorry comradeTo the Editor:- Your Friday issue carried a

i squib entitled "Russian Houseplans Game Room reception"

- which would be hard to matchs for flambouyant inaccuracy. TheIg Russian House wants the follow-

ing points clarified: 1) Russis House is not, as your piece states,a "the only independent student

housing group at the Institute"-an absurd contention; 2) Russian

t House is not, contrary to your-report, planning a reception in

the Student Center Game R00Tron November 7 for a group of SOviet scientists visiting MIT andHarvard. We gave the reception,with Dean Fassett's kind assistance, last November 7; 3) Rus

. sian House does not, despite yourreporter's assertion that it does,sponsor concerts annually. Wedid sponsor one last year--thefirst year of our existence, by theway-but we have no set plansfor such a venture this year; 4)"The little father," as your cvirespondent describes me, strikenot a few members of the HoI0Leas a czarist anachronism withoutbasis in fact. I might add,' too,that I am not "Professor of Rus'sian" at MIT. The Institute hasn'tany.

While the usual beards andlong, pressed tresses associatedwith Common demonstrationswere absent Saturday, placardsand signs pleading for help inpreserving homes from the high-way buiders were much in evi-dence. Most of the signs pro-claimed "Beat the Belt" or "Cam-bridge is a city-not a highway."

In spite of the protest, thereremains much pessimism aboutthe Brookline-Elm route. Manyofficials question the outcome ofa restudy, and especially the mo-tivations that lead to a restudyduring an election year. Also,Congress determined that theFederal funds allotted for the In-ner Belt must be spent by 1972.

The rea-son for the split is to enable thesectional vice president to coverthe chapters under him morethoroughly, and thus do a betterjob.

and service to Scouting. Of thelatter it was felt that service maybe accomplished on the counciland district levels. Service to anindividual unit is unfdesirable be-cause involvement should be acontinuous thing, but chaptersare active primarily during theschool year, continuity is lost ov-er the summer months.

Chapters urged to act on ownIt was suggested that a chapter

establish contact with local unitsby visiting the council office andoffering to help in any capacity.Visits to Scout camps were alsorecomended, the visitors lookingfor things that need to be done,and then going ahead and doingthem.

The Conclave ended with a ban-quet in the Student Center, afterwhich two movies were shown.Alpha Chi showed a movie of theannual spring Carnival, and DeltaNu (Yale) sent a movie about or-ganizing a Scout troop in an un-derprivileged area.

Those schools represented atthe conference include Brown,University of Maine, Universityof Massachusetts, University ofNew Hampshire, New Haven Col-lege, Quinnipiac College, Spring-field University, Suffolk Collegeand WPI.

'The Hat,' an 18-minute animat-ed film by John and Faith Hub-ley, with music and dialogue byDizzy Gillespie and Dudley Moore,will be shown at the Dizzy Gilles-pie concert to be given in KresgeSaturday. The concert is beingpresented by the MIT DormitoryCouncil.

'The Hat' is anusual and pro-

vocative film which explores in

humorous context the complicatedquestions related to disarmamentand the organizations of a peace-ful world. It received first prizeas the best animated film at the1964 Venice Film Festival, the

Special Jury Prize at the Festivalde Tours, and the Edward Kings-ley Award for the best short sub-ject. Most recently 'The Hat' wonits fourth award, the Special Prizein the short film competition atthe 1966 Melbourne Film Festival.It was recently shown over CBSnationwide television.

The MIT Dramashop openedanother season of one- act playsat the Kresge Little Theater, Fri-day night, givig Thornton Wild-er's 'The Long Christmas Din-ner' and W. B. Yeats' 'At theHawk's Well.'

Wilder uses the occasion of afarnily's annual Christmas dinnerto show what happens to it overa period of three generations. Theplayers sit at the dinner table,discussing what is happening tothem, coming and going as theygrow up and die, getting older asthe scene progresses.

Unsatisfying resultThe deceptively simple action

and dialogue of this piece placeconsiderable demands on a comrnpany; the characters eat an imaginary dinner with inmagnaryutensils, and age years in thespace of seconds. This and thefather fast pace of the perfornance, as well as technical difficulties, made for a somewhat unsatisfying result.

As for the meaning of it all,the outward structure is clearlycyclic, with each generation mir-roring actions of the ones before,and the end bringing a completeresetting of the opening situation;But changes are obvious withinthe constant setting, and thesemay be seen as commentary onchanging American society.

Good performancesThere were no really major

Hama's & Papa's offervocal talent qu" k wit

By Don Davis

In their October 14 perfornance at the Commonwealth Arm-ory, the Mama's and Papa'sshowed some 6000 in attendancethat they can indeed sing. Per-forming all their hits except 'ISaw Her Again,' the unique four-some showed that the beautifulharmony on their records is theresult not of any electronic trick-ery, but rather of naturally tal-ented voices.

'California Dreamin,' dedicatedto Boston, where it got its startalmost a year ago, and 'I CallYour Name,' which they said represents Cass's crush on John Len-non, were probably their mostpopular numbers. The group alsodemonstrated their quick wit whenlelectrical difficulties interruptedthe show several times with coin-ments such as Cass's "Kill thelights. No, save them in caseanyone else ever has a concerthere."

'FantasUic Voyage -a wase of timneBy David Grosz

'Fantastic Voyage' is a science-fiction movie with a different plot.

In it, it seems that a certainDr. Benes, who happens to be thesole holder of the secret for thecontrol of the induced miniatwi-zation of objects (which is greatlydesired by both international po-litical camps), has a blood clot ina vital area of his redoubtablebrain. The only way to reach it isto shrink the eminent brain sur-geon Arthur Kennedy to micro-scopic size. inject him into thegood doctor's neck, let him travelin a submarine through the blood-stream to the brain, and therehave him shoot the offending clotto smithereens with a laser beam.

One hourElementary.But the catch is that the mini-

aturizing effect lasts for but onehour, after which all particles re-vert to normal size. Radio oper-ator Stephen Boyd, the subma-rine's designer, a circulatory ex-pert, and last, but not box-office-wise least, Raquel Welch, the sur-geon's trusted 'technician' accom-pany him on his journey.

Aside from a series of incredi-ble special effects, the film haslittle to recommend it. Althoughit may not seem possible, tediumsets in rather quickly. There aresimply too many views of redcorpuscles whizzing by the craft,too many people getting caught inbunches of nerves, and too muchpacing up and down by the direct-or of the project back in the con-trol room. To tpp off these ele-ments of boredom, the plotting be-comes further bogged down in thesort of good-guy-turned-saboteurmotif stocked in Hollywood by thehundreds. Wvhen the laser gun isdamaged or when a line connect-ing one of the travelers to hiscraft is cut, we need none of Mr.Boyd's remarkable deductive pow-ers to determine the culprit.

Poor screenplayIn a film such as this, acting,

and screenplay would normallybe irrelevant, but here they areflubbed badly enough to deservespecial notice. If the producerwas looking for a wooden Indianfor his lead role, he made a fine

n'1

choice in Mr. Boyd, who is com-plemented perfectly in this re-spect by Miss Welch. the Philoso-phizing put into Mr. Kennedy'smouth by the writers drops likeso many lead bricks. Undoubted-ly, much of the film would havebeen better played tongue-in-cheek, but then again, Boyd isprobably funnier the way he is. Ifyou don't immediately becomefascinated by the visual effects,I would advise taking your leave.

Over the past few months, MIT has been associwith such projects as irradiating 15 tons of baconamining Marshall Islanders, and theorizing abouttons and the structure of the moon.

Nine Eastern universities (MIT, Columbia, CoHarvard, Johns Hopkins, Pennsylvania, PrincRochester, and Yale) sponsor an organization knowAssociated Universities, Inc. This group has ovemanagement responsibility for the developmentoperation of Brookhaven National Laboratory andNational Radio Astronomy Observatory, in GBank, West Virginia.

Cobalt- 60 usedBrookhaven National Labora-

tory completed irradiation of fif-teen tons of bacon July 8 in thefirst large-scale field test of theapplication of gamma radiationin the sterilization of perishablefoods. 850,000 curies of radio-active cobalt-60 at Brookhaven'sHigh Intensity Radiation Develop-ment Laboratory produced theradiation which will enable theArmy to store and transport thebacon without refrigeration.

The observed hardness -of the--lunar surface is puzzling, asmany astronomers had predictedthat micrometeorites and thethermal stresses of the .moon's

Professor Yigael Yadin of theHebrew University, Jerusalem,will give a lecture, illustratedwith slides, on the excavationsat Masada, Israel, in Kresge Au-ditorium Friday at 2:30 prm.

Masada, a rock 1300 feet highby the Dead Sea, was the siteof uncompromising resistance tothe Romans by the Jewish com-munity in A.D. 73. Nearly 1000Jewish men, women, and chil-dren chose suicide instead of sur-render.

The professor is a noted archae-ologist who helped unearth thesite.

The former chief of the generalstaff of the Israel Defense Force,he helped bring about Israel'svictory -in the War of Independ-ence in 1948 when, during entrap-ment of defense forces, he relo-cated ancient military routeswhile using the Bible as a guide.

The lecture, sponsored by theB'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation, isfree.

was a nhurdti, slaughter inpointage and men. The score was38-4 and so many players hadbeen injured in that game, alongwiith several others earlier ir theseason, that the vwhole league can-celled all upcoming games.

IxT had even more problemsconcening football than did allher league competitors. Apparent-ly, the Institute was unwilling todesignate a group of instructorsas the coaching staff and bringsome true organization to the Techgridiron.

Through the 1890's, MIT suffer-ed one humiliating defeat afteranoher and an extt-aordinaryamount of injuries. Finally camethat infamous day in MrT historywhel by undergraduate vote, in-tarcollegiate football was abolish-ed.

The story goes that a massmeeting of undergraduates washeld Oct. 11, 19D1 addressed byPresident Pritchett. He spoke un-favorably towards football at theInstitue -because he felt veryfew men had enough tiue to de-vote to the game. After PresidentPritchett had spoken, most of thestuents in attendance left, think-ing that the meeting was over. Onthe contrary, the students remain-ing put the existence of intercol-legiate at MIT up to a vote. Itwas banred by a score of 119 to117.

Since them,, groups of studentshave requested a rejuvenaton ofintercollegiate football everythree or four years. Last year,after considerable study, theAthletic Board voted down theproposal once more.

By Barry WemissEvery autumn sports pages are

seenmingly domainated by articleson intercollegiate football. Yetduring this same season, whenevery college campus appears tobe sopping with school spirit, MITlacks an eleven.

Yet MIT did not always standwithout an intercollegiate team.Records of football at Tech goback to the autumn of 1881 whenthe game was still a degenerateform of rugby. Football was stilla hyphenated word at the timeand the game was played in twoinnings rather than four quarters.

The first game on record wasplayed at Exeter, Oct. 29, 1881.The Techmen won the bout by ascore of 2-0; that is, two goalsscored to none. The victory wasquite a surprise, as the articleconcerning the game states: " (tewin) . . . is rather to be wonderedat, considering our poor chancesIfor practice and the good onesat Exeter." The Techren of '81went on to a fairly successfulseason, however, despite theirlack of practice.

By 1890, football at MIT haddeveloped more or less into thegamne we know today. Tech's sea-son was average, as they defeat-ed Brown and Exeter, tied FallRiver, and lost to both Andoverand Amherst. The A~mherst game

The offensiveteam could not mount a sustainedattack. The problem of teamwork,which was so prevalent im thefirst match, recurred Saurday.This factor greatly reduced thescoring potential.

Problems, however, were notrestricted only to the offense. Inthe confusion surrounding the MITgoal, and despite valiant effortsby goalie John Gerth, the Techdefenders accidentally ldcked inthree goals for Harvard.

Even though Harvard was giventhree points, their offense shouldnot be underestimated. Tlie fivegoals they scored were long andaccurate shots that left Gerthhelpless. The frosh will attempt toeven their record tomorrow after-noon against the Universiy ofNew Hamnpshire.

MIT sailors swept, the FowleTrophy Eliminations Regatta atCoast Guard Academy .Saturday.The Engineers beat Harvard, U-Conn, Yale, Trinity, and Wesle-yan. In the words of Captain ChetOsborne '67, "Nobody could touchus. '

The regatta was a team com-petition consisting wholly of din-ghies. In this type of race, twoschools sail four boats at once.The total team score determinesthe winner. Chet Osborne '67,Dick Smith '69, Joe Ferreira '67,and Tom Maier '67 skipperedTech's four dinghies all of whichwon.

In this competition, strategy aswell as skill is decisive in deter-mining the victor. Besides dis-playing excellent speed, the En-gineers managed to maneuvertheir boats into a position so asto cut off competing dinghies.
