By Steve CahartThe Soviet Union permitted the

formnation of a common market ineastern Eu6pe among Czechoslavakia,Rurnania, Yugoslavia, Austria, EastGermany, and Hungary, and the UnitedStates refrained from invading Niaragua.as rebels seized power in a world crisis/mulation held at the Institute Sat-uWay.

The crisis simulation was a termproject in 21.556, Soviet-AmericanDiplomacy, taught by Professor DianeClemens. The simulation differediigaificantly from conventional wargaming in that it was designed prim-aily to test student reactions to beingforced to make national policy underpssuie. National teams were present-ed with a situation which could evolveh a number of ways and allowed to

China was known to possessintermediate range nuclear missiles, afew of which had apparently beenplaced.in Albania. Shortly after noonthe. Nicaraguan dictatorship was oaver-thrown by rebels which, accrding tothe old government, were using Chinesearns.

Confict expectedThe control team fully expected

that one or more of the potentialconflicts lurking in the scenario wouldbecome a source of major disagreernetbetween the big powers. Statementsmade by the various teams in the classperiod preceding the simulation indic-ated that weeks of study of one nationhad cultivated each group's nationalpride to a remarkable extent.

Strange things happened, however,when the teams received their nuclearweapons and other accoutrements ofnational power on Saturday. Initially,most teams bombarded control withrequests for intelligence informationconcerning other states' defensestrength. Yet the bomb damage cal-culators and megadeath notes theteams brought with them, all sideschose to negotiate and maneuver in thediplomatic arena rather than risk war.

In the meantime, the Soviets all butignored China in favor of the Europeansituation. Their initial action tocounteract the possibility that easternEurope might unite economicallyagainst the Soviet Union was not of amilitary nature, but was instead a coan-fidential message to East Genrmanyrequesting that that seek admission to

create their own difficulties. Anotherinnovation was the use of the Instit-utes computer timne sharing system,CTSS' as a teletype system to deliver

mnssages between teams. To simulategeographic isolation, each team re-mnained in a single room all day, with aconsole as its only link to the world,

The simulation was run by astudent control team, which projectedthe world situation in February, 1972,on the basis of research done concern-ing current facts and trends in Europe,China, the USA, and the USSR. Theworld situation which the teams dis-covered as they opened their massiveinformation packets early Saturdaymorning included a newly-establishedeastern European common marketwhich might provoke a US-USSR clash

A ten-channel closed-circuit tel-vision system costing around $2.7million, for the MIT campus was recent-ly proposed by Mr. Peter Buttner, exec-utile officer of the Freshman AdvisoryCouncil.

The most unusual feature of Mr.Buttner's proposal is the feature ofInstitute-provided personal receiversfor every student, faculty member andOaff member. Other receivers would beprovided in public areas and workareas.

Benefits

The 'benefits which Mr. Buttner saidwould be derived from the system are:

"1. The achievement of a dramaticincrease in the extent and quality ofboth internal communication - be-tween and among the various elementsof the Institute; and external cornmmuni-cation - to and from the larger com-munities of which we are a part;

"2. The development of moreeffective patterns of time and spaceutilization;

"3. The evolution of new styles ofindividual and corporate behavioconsistent with the gowing demandsof increasingly complex socialsystems."

On a ten-channel system, transmit-ting eighteen hours per day, therewould be 1260 program hours perweek available. Buttnher proposed thatapproximately 50%0 of these time slotsbe allocated to the general purpose ofmaking the decision-making processmore generally publicized to p greaterportion of the MIT communaity. It wasalso noted that if a particular peetingwere televised, one might be able toengage in less demading, but neverthe-less necessary work while viewing themeeting instead of having to attend inperson.

Rebroadcasts

Such meetings would also be re-broadcast during the evening hours forthe benefit of students who would not

The bnrtal slaying of a 23 year-oldHarvard graduate student, Jane Britton,has aroused speculation on the part ofcertain Harvard undergraduates thatthe murder might possibly have beencommitted by someone under theinfluence of a hallucinogenic drug.

The absence of any trademarks ofthe "Boston Stranagler" type of slaying,such as stockings used as murderweapons, and the fact that apparentlyMiss Britton was neither robbed norassaulted, has enabled many students in

the area to view the incident with lessfright than a crime of this natureusually engenders.

"Mystic funeral"Mysterious aspects were added to

the incident when certaim "rites" whichhad been performed on the gir as shewas dying were identified by ProfessorStephen W'ilimas, chairman of theHarvard Anthropology departmnent, asbeing part of an ancient Persian burialritual. These "rites" included sprinklngthe girl's body with red oehre, apigment used in pottery for manythousands of years by most primitivesocieties. The "funeral ritual" alsoincluded piling the body with a coat, arug, and other similar articles in anattempt to simulate a burial. Policetheorize that the elaborate ceremonywas probably done by a person withextensive knowledge of ancientcivilizations, possibly an Anthropology

student at Harvard. As a result, about100 fellow students of Miss Brittoanhave been or will be questioned by thepolice.

Weapon mcogMiss Britton's body was found at

12:40 Tuesday morning in hertow-room apartment, which is not farfrom Harvard Yard. Death wasapparently the result of five blows onthe back of the head with a maeiveobject, perhaps arn archeologicalfragment which she ws known to havekept in her room, but which pothawe been unable to find so far. Shwas the daughter of a vice-president ofRadcliffe College, which she hadattended as an undergraduate. In recentmonths, a number of other Harvardstudents and faculty have been muggedor accosted in the area between

Brandes talks break downas Blacks emaand amnesty

By Mike Fedsow and Chrlie MannChances for an agreement between officials of Brandeis University and the

Black students occupying Ford Hall were apparently set back Saturday withthe suspension of the students by Brandeis President Abrams.

The suspension and threat of expulsion brought no apparent reaction fromthe Black students who, as of press time, remained intent on occupying the buil-ding until their demands are met. The suspensions came at a time when manyfelt that an agreement between the faculty and Black students was near.

The suspension and threat of expulsion brought no apparent reaction fromthe Black students who, as of press time, remained intent on occupying the bui-ding until their demands are met. The susp

The Brandeis administration has essentially agreed to nine of the ten de-mands and has turned to tihe faculty for approval the tenth - an African studiesdepartment. The faculty has taken a stand of refusing to approve anything aslong as the building is occupied while the Black students maintain the opposite.

NegotiaionProposals and counter-proposals were offered Sunrday as both sides appeared

to be in a stalemate. Randy Bailey, one of the Black students, proposed a negoti-ating team composed of a black representative, two members of the faculty andtwo members of the administration. The plan was not accepted by the admini-stration.

Abrams countered with a plan for the formation of three committees withmembers from each side to conside/'the African stadies department, the rest ofthe proposals, and the timing and vacating of Ford Hall. The Black students haverejected Abranm's proposals.

Inunction iedAbrams has a court irnjunction at his disposal if the negotiations fail com-

pletely. The injunction is a restraining order ordering the students to leave FordHall and commit no disruption of any university activities. However, Abramsappears int;tn on playing a jnoderate role and would hesitate to call police in.

Support for the Blacklstudents was organized at a meeting at the MIT Stu-dent Center Sunday evening. About 50 students from MIT, Harvard, North-eastern, and Boston University met and fonrmed thie Ford Hall Solidarity Com-rnittee. Expressing the goal of augmenting the struggle of the Brandeis Afro-American Society, the committee plans to distribute ten thousand copiesof theBrandeis Black Bulletin from Ford Hall.

Amnest demandedAfter lengthy discussion, the Committee demanded, "compete amnesty for

al involved," and condemned the Brandeis administration for suspending thestudents. The meeting was highlighted by the viiit of several students fromBrandeis. Representing the radical white support, the students came to relay arequest that students from other schools stay off the Brandeis campus.

The problems encountered in building support for the Black students on theBrandeis Campus were discussed, including the aspect that the Black studentshave felt alienated from the rest of the student body and have not really tried topersuade the rest of the students that their demands have merit.

While generally agreeing with the visiting Brandeis students, most at themeeting felt that the issue didn't involve just Black students but has relevancefor students on every campus. A demonstration of support was suggested butthis was countered with the argument that the Black students did not want thesupport as much as agreement and respect.

Several professors felt that thefaculty- would lhave approved the de-mands aleady, except for a fear thatsuch concesirons achieved so readilymight prompt other studends to seizebuildings whenever they felt that theyrhad a complaint-against the faculty' oradministration. Aso, there was somedisagreement as to whether thereshould be a separate African StudiesDepartment, instead of the presentsystem of courses split -between theHistory and Sodciology departments.

facfored from page 1,At Brainies, student support for

the Blac demnands appeared mixedhite radi students agreed in grin-

ciple to strike but decided that itvasn"t good tactic to call one onw. Acoordinating commnittee and subcom-rittees in the dormito e and ascdem-ic departments have been set up to askfor pledges if a strike is called. Meetingsare planned every evening to decide onthe strike. If called, the goal would becomplete amnesty for the Blacks and

acceptance of all the demands.In- earlier action at Bzandch, a

monobstacdh . sit-n was hel Fridaynight in support of the Bactstutents,and to prost the refusal of the admn-istration to grant amnesty. After coa-siderable disssi on or what the whitestudents could do, and on the merits ofthe Black students in taking over build-ings, a motion was presented to theapproximately 300 students presentexpressin a demand that the ten

points. of the - students be- metand a request that lines of communicat-ion be opened betweer faculty andstudents.

Methods itMost of the people present at the

sit-in appeared to feel that a majorityof students and faculty on campussupported the demands of the Blackstudents, but were divided on themethod they employed for dramatizingtheir demands.

What is the Bethlehem Loop Course? It is our management development program for graduateswith bachelors' or advanced degrees.-

The course starts early in July with four weeks of orientation at our home offices in Bethlehem,Pa. Loopers attend lectures on every phase of the corporation's activities, and make almost dailyvisits to a steel plant.

Steel Plant Loopers, who comprise a majority of the average loop class of 150 to 200 graduates,proceed to various plants where they go through a brief orientation program before beginningtheir on-the-job training assignments. Within a short time after joining the course, most loopersare ready for assignments aimed toward higher levels of management.

How about other loopers? Our Sales Department loopers (30 or so) remain at the home office forabout a year of training. Most are then assigned to district offices where they take over establishedaccounts.

Fabricated Steel Construction loopers .are trained in a drafting room, on a field erection project,in a fabricating shop, and in an engineering office. A looper's first work assignment is based oninterests and aptitudes disclosed during this program.

Loopers in Accounting, Shipbuilding, Mining, Research, Traffic, Purchasing, 'Finance and Law,General Services, and Industrial and Public Relations go through training programs tailored totheir types of work.-

As the Nicaraguan situation dieddown, it became apparent that anyresolution of the problems concerningnations who now wished to enter theEECM would require a face-to-facemeeting of the member nations. Afterintense negotiations within the EECMand the Warsaw Pact, East Germanyand Hungary were admitted to theEECM with the proviso that EastGerman borders with the other statesbe opened, thus ensuring the liberal-ization of the East German state andthe end of Walter Ulbricht. Russiaconsented to this, while the US main-tained its hands-off attitude.

More than one interpretation of thegame results may be made. One of theprime goals of the simulation, accord-ing to Professor Clemens, was to putstudents into situations in which theywould be able to identify with a nationand be forced to make decisions inbehalf of that nation while underpressure. It was hoped that this wouldgive students a better understanding ofthe ways in which policy decisions aremade and see whether policyjudgments made under these circum-stances were substantially differentfrom those made in the ivory tower ofthe classroom situation. Theaggressiveness which control expectedfrom the Russians and the Chinese wasnot exhibited, and the Americans weresomewhat more restrained than hadbeen anticipated. On the other hand,the Europeans performed approx-imately as expected. One mightconclude that the Russians and Chinesedid not identify with their nationalinterests sufficiently well, but observersin the team rooms suggested thatpolicy decisions arose instead from are-evaluation by the teams of theirnation's vital interests and were madeover the objections of some of themore aggressive team members.

Lab work will con-sist of the production of a series ofshort fi'ms add then one longer projectnear the conclusion of the course.These filns will be sound films, al-though not synchronous-sound films. Asample exercise might be to take apiece of music and then film someappropriate footage to go along wilth it.

Teaching the course will be Dr.Edward Pincus, a foymer graduate stu-dent of philosophy at Harvard. Afterreceiving his degree, Professor Pincustaught for one year at Harvard's visualarts center. Becoming interested infilmmaking, he and a friend then set upthe Cambridgeport Film Corporation.This company has been in existencesome three and one half years now.

The films produced by the Carm-bridgeport Film Corporation have beenboth independent and TV-commis-sioned. One of lhese efforts was a film

of a power struggle between two groupsof Mississippi blacks for control oftheir town's black community. Thiswas bought and shown by NET. Alsoproduced by the corporation has beena documentary of a hippie couple on acommune in California. Unlike the Mis-sissippi film, however, this effort wasnot presented on television. Althoughcommissioned by one of the TV com-panies, the editorial board of the com-pany rejected the film. As ProfessorPincus explains, "the board decided thefilm was obscene and in bad taste," butthen adds "it wasn't really."

The course will be of limited enroll-ment - consisting of two sections oftwelve. Lab fee for the course will befifty dollars, which will cover all fim-making expenses. Because of thecourse's limited size, students will beselected for the course by ProfessorPincus on the basis of an interview.This ilterview can be taken any timeup until th first few days of February.Anyone interested in this course shouldcall extension 4411 and ask for Carol.Sihe will arrange a time for the inter-view.

Recently there have been a number of proposalsand experimentation with Reading/Finals period.We would like to add our voice to the thousands inagreeing that something should definitely be doneto alleviate the extreme pressure which results fromthe current system.

In part, we agree with a well-known psychologyprofessor who tells his class that the only reason forhaving a final examination is to purge the student ofall knowledge of the course. What we would like- tosee is the elimination of all finals.

However, that appears to be a very distinctpossibility. Therefore, we would like to offer asolution which is currently being tried at one schoolof our knowledge. That is a proposal forself-scheduling examinations.

The mechanics of the idea are simple. Eachprofessor must have his final examinations preparedby the beginning of the period allotted to finals.The exams are then left in a central clearinghouse,where the student comes to pick up his paper. Hethen takes it to one of the several speciallydesignated examination areas, where he has three

hours to write the final. At the end of that time, hereturns the paper to the clearinghouse, where it iseventually passed on to the instructor.

This proposal would liminate much of thestrain which currently accompanies the last weeksof each term. It would almost certainly upgrade thequality or the student's learning. And, it wouldvirtually eliminate the possibility of a studenthaving a "double-header" unless he so desired.

Granted there are a lot of problems involved in ascheme such as this. Nevertheless; it appears that,from the student's point of view, it would solve alot of problems which now exist in Reading/Finalsperiod. For this reason, we believe that it should atleast be approached on a trial basis.

B oycott - -We were going to write an editorial supporting

the commons boycott, but somehow we don't haveit.

LSC, the Lecture Series Committee.I understand that Mr. Horovitz is a

graduate of MIT and, hence, thatwould be one good reason to sponsorthe film. However, because of thenature of the film, it would hbave beenmuch more appropriate to have thefilm sponsored by the Hillel Society orby the Israeli Club and not by LSC. Amore fruitful and intellectually stimula-ting activity to sponsor might havebeen to have responsible speakers dis-cuss the currently controversial andpotentially explosive situation in theMiddle East. Such an activity wouldallow the chance for discussion andwould, hopefully, result in a betterunderstanding of the problems in-volved, -and perhaps new solutionswould emerge.

The film sponsored by LSC did notlive up to the intellectual responsibilitythat has been exhibited by LSC in thepast.

The Middle East crisis is far fromover. The sponsorship by LSC, for it isa Lecture Series Commnittee, of a lec-ture or more concerning the MiddleEast crisis is in order at this time.

Fratemrnities at Lehigh Universitywere found guilty of "committing actsof individual and institutional racism"in a mock trial conducted by black stu-dents. The trial was held by an organi-zation that calls itself the Uhuru Soci-ety. Marching into an open house beingheld for freshmen at Kappa Sigma,fourteen members of the Society play-acted as judge, prosecution, and jury.

After the jury returned the verdictof guilty, the judge pronounced, "Youfraternity men on the Lehigh campus,ame charged guilty of white racismn: acrime punishable by direct confronta-tion or by holding a program }of com-munlication between blacks and whites.Fur/hermore, we shall hold this discus-sion program every other week in fra-ternity houses to be selected by us."

The group then left as unexpectedlyas it came. Members of the fraternitydeclined to comment about the discus-sion programs and the threat of con-frontation.

Generation gap gapped

University of Massachusetts Dean I.M. Hunsberger made the followingcomment: "Recently I have read: 'Oneeducation commissiaon argues that there

is "persuasive evidence" that as a resultof better diet and medical care, today'sfreshmen are three years older physiolo-gically than those of 19(0.' If thismore rapid aging of our students con-tinues at the same rate, I calculate thatthe 'generation gap' will be completelyeliminated by about 2600 A.D.!"

CIA infiltration in school

San Francisco State's experimentalcollege has kicked out a man suspectedof being a CIA agent.

The man, Roberto Kaffe, taught acourse of guerila warfare last year andplanned to teach one called "philoso-phy and revolution" this year. Theofficial reason he was denied permis-sion to, teach the courses was "lack ofdiscipline and untrustworthiness."

Many students say the real reason isan alleged phone call from a ederalagency to a university dean offering topay off debts Kaffke owes the college.The dean denies he receive the call andKaffke says it was a smear designed toget hin kicked out.

Mandatory ROTC makes men '

Colonel Thomas Blakeney, com-mandant of cadets at Louisiana StateUniversity, where ROTC is mandatory,

offered his views recently on makingROTC elective: "Does it necessarilyfollow that what's good for Harvard isgood for LSU?"-he asked.

"I feel it would be a disgrace toabolish the compulsory ROTC systemat LSU. I feel this University wouldlose, if this is abolished, a degree ofstability that ROTC offers the Univer-sity. I'm dead certain that young fresh-men coming here are confused anddon't know what to do with their lives,and consequently, they' want to takethe easy way out."

The University of Chicago recentlyannounced that it has appointed a stu-dent ombudsman to protect interests inpolicy making areas.

A University spokesman indicatedthat Chicago's ombudsman is the firstat any American college. The ombud-sman was chosen in response to criti-cismn about the Unmversity's decision-making process from Marocon, the stu-dent newspaper.

According to the University, theombudsman's position will be "to callattention to abuses. of discretionwherever he finds them and to suggestchanges in rules, procedures anid poli-cies wherever he sees fit."

This term, twenty-six MIT under-graduates teach at Rindge and take oneof four seminars conducted by MITfaculty: Physical Science (Prof. PhilipMorrison), Social Studies (Prof. LouisMenand, III), Mathematics (Prof.Arthur Mattuck), and English (]rof.Frank Zingrone). The-seminars meetonce a week and discuss both generaland specific issues arising from theexperiences at Rindge.

Our program has not proposed thatMIT students "...fill in for teach-ers...while the teacher was at MITattending seminars and classes or doingresearch."

THE TECH TUESDAY,JANUARY 14, 1969 PAGE5

"The MIT student is educated in is-olation, and perhaps in competitreisolation." This is one of the con-clusions drqwn by Malcolm Parlett, aresearch psychologist with the Educat-ion Research Center after he spent lastsemester studying 6.7 1.

The ERC has released the draft ofParlett's report, a shortened version ofwhich was delivered to the EducationalResearch Center Colloquium inOctober. His study was of the effectsof project laboratory subjects on thestudents enrolled in them and he used6.711 (Digital Systems Project Lab)because of its size and subject matter.The aim of this course, in the words ofProf. TrFoxel, is to "transform a dkit-ally naive student into an engineer whois capable of designing moderatelycomplex digital systems and of affect-ing their realization with integratedcircuits."

Com~ Stmctuxe

The course consisted of six weeksof lectures, labs and tutorials, and nineweeks during which students workedon their own projects. Parlett salt in atlectures, tutorials, staff meetings, andalso talked informally to students andteaching assistants as they worked inthe lab.

Parlett points out four aspects ofthe course oganization which hethinks were important: the first wasthe rapid introduction to the material,

described as a "crash course (to) enablethe student to build a project." Thesecond point is that the course wasgraded primarily on the project,although the early work was also nom-inally graded. Also, the best projects ofthe ter before were put on videotapeand shown to the students. Finally,oral reports on the projects were re-quired near the end of the term, thestudent giving a brief description of his

project to the instructor-and severalTAs and students.

Involvement

Turning to one particular point,Parleft concentrates on discussing the"factors related to the development ofinvolvement and profound interest in aparticular intellectual area." He feelsthat in most courses, the student is notreally "turned on that they feel they

between students and TA's, whichwould disprove the theory that fear ofauthoritarian figures prevents partic-ipation, the lack of contact betweenstudents indicated the fear of publichumiliation. The fact that a student iseducated in isolation in "a much widerphenomenon (than just the 'lack ofstudent communications), the roots ofwhich sink deeply into the whole socialstructure and group psychology ofMIT."

One of the few features common to6.711 and most other Institute subjects, according to Parlett, is that it isgraded. Even among' students who con-sider grades a necessary evil, "there isscant respect for grades as an indicationof understanding in depth or of gen-uine mastery of complex subjectmatter." Some of this was avoided in6.711, as all students who completed aproject received an A or B.

Parlett finds five characteristics ofthe course that could be incorporatedinto any course. Briefly: 1) Greater ef-fort to showing how the subject hasrelevance to the discipline and the real'world. 2) Let students "do their ownthing" as distinct from what otherstudents are doing. 3)Let students exer-cise choice in what they are doing. 4)Encourage openness and communicat-ion between students. 5) Allowstudents the time to get involved.

already possess." Other aspects of thecourse which brought about this in-volvement were the facts that studentsworked on their pwn projects, notsomething that someone else had donebefore, and that there was a great dealof flexibility in working time. The for-mer, Parlett concludes, may not be theluxury to students that some considerit, but rather "a staple food containingessential nutrients." The latter allowedthe students freedon to parcel theirown time, not necessarily wisely in allcases, a freedom students particularlyenjoy.

Detaiments

Parlett next discusses the factorsdetrimental to this feeling of involve-ment. Onre, which Parlett considersperhaps most important, is thatstudents always had the project ontheir minds, to the detriment of theirother courses. He suggests that thereason students often do not developany specific interest in any course isthat they haven't the time while theyare taking four or five others. He feelsthat this is a problem common to all ofMIT, and suggests that "it would beinteresting to know whether the totaldaily progress in research, across theboard at MIT, would be affected if thephone system went out of order for aweek. I would not be geatly surprisedif there were an effect equivalent to thesharp increase in birth rate after theblackout in 1965."

Communiecatn

The students in 6.711 did not dis-cuss their projects among themselves, acharacteristic Parlett relates to thecommon phenomenon of students' fail-ing to ask questions or participate inclass discussions in general. Although in6.711 there was extensive contact

'charate/rs in a farce 'are not generallyvery well-rounded, and the plot can

i-end fairly- arb/tradily; rthe playwrightdoesn't attempt to &/e a full explea.t/on of the motives at work. Clearlyanyone who gets emotionally involvedwill end up feethng cheated. Albehadth get around thi problem, but stilwanted to use real-looking people vithreal-lookding motives. So, he simplyexaggerated. The mentality he wanteAto mock remains visible, and its conse.

.quences are too unbelievably badi foranyone to feel sorry for it.

Of coutbrae, it helps to have some0funny lines,'too; and the play cerairfiaydoesn't lack in that. From the very Awstwords between husband and wife,about the necessity of smodking lousycigarettes to sav~e coupons, the jokes'are many and good. Furthermore,they're not just standard one-linen;they make full use of the weird comicsituation, and are as-unpredictablfe asthe plot. Neither are there only a few"funny" characters. Each part is putthere to be laughed at in a parO'cularway . .

Cast fanta~stic

The roles, then, are pretty dleman.ding, and the cast of the Charles Play.house has done a fantastic job. Mostmemorable (if onliy because he has th~emost important parO) is Robert Fox.worth, as the husband who can't quiteirationalize middle-class materialism,Not only is his execution superb, buthe's managedl to find the humor in eventhe most innocuous lines. Jane Cronin,Rernak Ramsay, and Paddy Croft areequally able in the other major parts.Also contn'bating importantly is JackSimons" playing the (so far) uncor-:rupted son, the only optimistic charac;,ter in the play. He is wisely content to-play a typical stmeotype like a typicalsterexotype, despite the ldghly untypicalsurroundings.

The remainder of the cast (LaurieGould, Linda Phillips, Jane Sanford,Roger Brown, Mel Houghton, and Stu-art Culpepper) play ittree other hypo-critical suburban couples, who turn upin the hst act Though their roles aen ot as big or important, they have prm-pared them just as well.· In conclusion, the Charles Play-

'louse production of Everything in theGarden must be one of the fumniestplays in town. It also may be one of1he most frightecrag: even if such a fay-cial nightmare could never take place,one begins to wonder if things nereally that much better.

By Robert FaoxerEdward Albee's Everything in the

Garden is a really clever farce. Itposssses, to begin with, the two quali-ficatios that define one: it's intendedto be funny, and its characters make noclaim of sympathy on the audience.Fuxtherimoe, it really is, funny; so itwould be a good farce in any case.What makes it clever, though, is thatmost of its characters are almost realpeople. While the audience may be toobusy laughig to care much what hap -

pens to the people in the play, thereare people much Mie them they d6 careabout; and that's the greatest lastingeffect a farce can have.

Albee's topic, one he's vaittenabout before, is 'the prostitution ofmiddle-class values. This time, though,he's taken it to the logical con~clusion:prostitution of wives, to make enough

money to keep up appearances. Need-less to say, the plot developments arebizarre. They're also a complete sur-prise, and, what's most important,they're funny; Events, though theybegin like in a realistic comedy, alwaysseem to take the most nightmarishturn; the situation the chaxacters havegotten themselves into, by following acommon stereotype philosophy, is sounthinkable it's amusing.' In' this waythe humor of the play starts not in theline, or even the situations, but in thestructure itself.

AvoidLs pitfalls

,These considerations are of the-utmost -importance. The greatest dan-ger in a fare lies in making the charac-ters too ceal, so that the audiencebegins to care what happens to then.Since the only purpose is to mock, the

These prob-lems, as well as a tendency towards ametronomric beat plagued the Leinsdorfconception again in the third and fifthmovements. The second movement waspresented so exquisitely as to outweighthese flaws. There being no reason tohurry in this movement, Leinsdorf set-tled down and lavished his attention ondynamic balances and the woodwindsolos in the score. The bird call nearthe end for flute, oboe and clarinet wasparticularly outstanding. The storm se-quaeace of the fourth movement wasalso brilliantly realized with dramaticintensity being more fully conveyedthan it is in most performances.

Mx. Watts made his first appear-ance,at the keyboard after the inter-mission for the Franck "SymphonicVariations." It is impossible to evalu-ate this performance because Leins-dorf caused Watts to start off with aninsurmountable handicap: inraudibili-ty. The orchestra was playing consi-derably louder than is normal for aconcerto performance, and this wasmuch too loud in the "'ariations,"which do not call for the productionas a huge piano sound..

The program concluded with theLiszt Piano Concerto No. 1, the workwith which 'Mr. Watts first gained hisfame. As a general complaint, it mustbe noted that the orchestra was againtoo loud for the piano to be heard tobest advantage. This being a virtuososhowpiece, though Mr. Watts waswilling to offer. the orchestra more

His skillful andexpressive, handling -of the passagesplayed with the orchestra showed thathe obviously knows this concerto likethe back of his hand. However, he ap-

plied much too much rubate in the

quiet solo parts. He chose to lhagerpainstakingly over each note, dis-secting and analyzing, as well as takingundue liberties with the rhythmicstructur of the work. This approach,when juxtaposed with the frantically-paced orchestral tuttis. led to a schizo-phreidc performance which was not'satisfying.

It is possible that Mr. Watts hasplayed this Listz concerto too fre-quently and has come to know it toowell, with the result that he attachesas much imortance to its details as one

would normally expect in a Brahms orBeethoven concerto. This piece, notbeing in a class with those more pro-found works, this approach does not

work well. The details in the Lstsimply not significant or interestingenough to stand up under this kind ofpenetrating inspection.

Mr. Watts' interpretation of theListz was a disappointment whenviewed in the light of his superbrecording of the work made severalyears ago. It seems that his view of thework has evolved to-the point where itcan at best be called idiosyncratic andat worst eccentric. Despite this, itmust be conceded that the audienceloved it and responded more enthusi-astically than is customary fox thestaid Saturday night subscriptioncrowd at Symphony Hall.

On Friday night, Tech opened thesecond half of the sason by hostingMiddlebury College of Vermont, ateam which the engineers had beaten inten of their twelve previous encounters,and a teamn whose two and six recordthis season was equal to the hometeam's three and seven. With SteveChamberlain '70, who had been outwith a broken wNrst, back in thestarting lineup, the prospects for halt-ing Tech's losing skein seemed bright.

By Steve GrantWith all the ballyhoo heaped upon

the new Beatles double LP, the Rolling'Stone's "Begar's Banquet" has gottena bit lost-in the shuffle. It's lamentable,too, because in any comparison be-tween the two the Stones are going tocome out ahead.

This was the album with the well-.known cover photo of a filthy bath-room covered with graffiti. The original(and supremely funny) cover photo hasbeen replaced with a spartan enravedinvitation to "Beggar's Banqubt" de-picted on the inskie cover in all itsgory. Ecch. ltut it's beautiful in itsown horrendous way.

Jag as the DevilSide one opens with "Sympathy for

the Devil, " which makes a lot of whatfollows anticlimatic. Mick Sagger has apreoccupation with the Satan, figure(witness "Their Satwnic-Majesties Req-uest'") and he gets it all on here in oneof the longest songs the Stones havedone. This -song may go down inhistory as one that started the Stoneson their movie careers - after droppingin the studio one day when the Stoneswere getting"Sympathy for the Devil"together for the first time, Jean-LucGodard cast them in One Plus One hisnext movie. The Stones themselveswere apparently grateful for the coin-cidence for some time before the songthey had been going through a lothagicand uncreative mood. One Plus One is aparable of construction vs. destruction,with the Stones, doing "Sympathy forthe Devi," in the role of construction,and had Godard dropped by a weekearlier he would certainly not havefound his champions of construction.

(Godard, incidentally, is also film-ing the Jefferson Airplane and EldridgeCleaver in An American Movie. It'sreported that he and the Airplane havebecome each other's biggest fans. TheAiplane's next album, a live-at-the-Fill-more-West affair, will apparently in-dude 'White Rabbit" and "Somebodyto Love" - also to be greatly hoped forare their driving '"he Other Side ofThis life," "In the Midnight Hour,""Rock Me Baby," and '.,Runnin''Round This World" (which GraceSlick called a "Namby-pamby" son inour interview last Apri).

Well, anyway' back to the Stones"album. "No Expectations" is a beaut-Iul love song, something the Stoneshaven't ta-d- urair collective hand atsince "Back Street GirL" Jager's mag-nificent sceans abilities awe kept

under wraps, but he's not really up tothe soft job required here the way hewas on "Back Street Girt." What reallymakes the song is the beautiful acousticwork by Keith Richards and slide

'guitar by Brian Jones: frst-rate stuff.'VMio t revdution'

The first song on side two is thengle "Street Fighting Man," which

harks back to the dirty, "angry youngman" image of December's Childrerm"The time is right for fighting in thestreet boy" - you just know the-Stones are right and the Beatles' neb-bishy "Revolution is hopelessly lackingany grasp of the situation. This is theStones at their best. 'The time is rightfor violent revolution" could easily bethe motto of the Black Panthers, andthe Stones aright on top of thfings.Jagger is in top-notch screaming demag-ogue form, which has always been hisstrongest suit. The Stones have neverxeally been at home doing any songbesides "Satidaction," only this timethey called it "Street Fighting Man."That sits just frne with me.

There is one other interesting song,'Salt of the Earth" (which ArethaFranklin just might get around to doingone of these days), a little obtuse, may-be, but the Stones have yet to do a sillysong championing the coommon man.Therest of the side, and album, israther frothy country, no competitionfor the Byrds, but inoffensive. It'shardly necessary. If you Mie theStones, you'll be salified but not thrit-led.

Last Friday's Talking Rock explain.ed why "Jumping Jack Flash" (possibly the best single of 1968- in this view)was omnitted this go-round - singlesgenerally fail to makV it onto Britishalbums, unless they are put out afterthe album is put in final form. "Jump-ing Jak Flash" could have made Beg-

gar's Banquet a great album instead ofmrl a very good one. Can anyoneask for more than four monster cutsout of ten?

"Sympathy for the Devi" "NoExpectations," and "Street FightingMan" make Beggar's Bamtqtet a, goodbuy just the same. Certainly 's animprovement over Their SatanicMajesties Request- the Stones reallyhad no business de)iwg a head album,which is pretty much a failure as such,although it makes fox pretty goodstraight listening. Beggar's Banquet"brings it all back home. It's good to-have the Stones back.

puti every roomtous needs. There would also be studio-type installations and a central faciityfor control consoles, tape equipment,transmission equipment, and repairfacilities.

Mr. Biittner estimated that such asystem would require an initial capitaoutlay of about $2.7 million, and anannual operating expense of azound$.75 milion. The central facility, heestimates, would require a floor spaceof around 10,000 sq. ft. The systemwould employ a sizeable student staff.

Although Mi. BUttner suggested aamber of possible sources of financia

aT for the project, none of the soumeswert definite.

ComXiuaications gap

Commenting upon the impact ofthe proposed system, MSr. liittnersaid ".. D the underlying premise of

this paer is that the contempawy.university appears to be confrontdwith an' accelerating gap between the

many demands placed upon it and itscapability to respond effectively andefficiently. The important questionwould seem to be not whether thehuman beings in the institution can bewound up a little tighter to run a littlefaster, a little longer - for it's doubtfulthey can - but whether individualhabits and the structure in general cmbe, modified to permit more relevantmethods of interaction and pattems oftime utilization.

'The new medium would also hawvan impact on the users, as well as heviewers. The user group would pre-swmably have two major components,the production staff and the "on-camera" group, with the effects oneach probably quite different. Al-though the production effort wouldnot be limited to students, it is en-visioned 'that they would be in themajority, likely exceeding in numberthe present combined staffs of WTBSand The Tech, the principal communications media groups on campus."

Tech's 400 medley relay team started the meet off bysetting a new MIT recorcLtime of 3:51.8,- winning the event.The quartet, composed of Al Graham '7 1, Tom Nesbitt '69,Jim Bronfenbrenner '70, and Lee Dilley '69, boosted theengineers to a quick7-0 lead. -

The engineers soon fell behind, when Luis Clare '69 wasthe only one to place in the 200 free with a second, andTim Gilmore '70 soloed for MIT with a third in the 50 free.Graham then added his second win of the day with a 2.12.6victoryin the 200 IM.

The engineers' powerful diving duo, Bob Rorschach'70and Dan Gentry '68, combined fox a one-two performancein the diving competition to again put Tech in the lead.

Bronfenbrenner lost first place by a nose in the 200 flya� he was touched-out under water by his Williamsopponent, while Dave James '71 added a third place for

'MIT in the event. DWy then broke through with his secondWin, a 50.6 performance in tlie 100 free.

. Clare took a 2:14.5 victory in the 200 backstroke, whileJames added a thrird place contribUtion in the 500 free.When Nesbitt pulled through withids second win of the day

(2:27.6) in the 200 bteaststroke, he closed the one-point-gap to bring the score to 44 all.

The meet was now down to the fmial iqvent, the 400 fzee-style relay, composed of Jim Lynch '69I."ClareGraham and�)Qley- Aftey two legs the teams weye neck and neck, withLynch ably filling in for the absent Stage. However, Techfell back two body lengths in the next leg, and, thoughDilley vas able to pick up one length on his fellow anchor--man, Wiffiams held -on to their lead to win the meet.

Although the Tech swimmexs' were justifiably dis-appoinUd by the close loss, the opponents, who lost � themeet dast year in the same event when one of the relay-menlost his trunks during the ace, were so elated over'the vict-ory that they tossed their coach'into the pool - a zealtribute to the engineers.

MIT's vanity squash team sipNi their two matchgs, over the weekend, to remainone game below the .500 maii-, with a'34 record. On Friday afternoon, earacquetmen travelled to Dartmouth. and dropped a 6-3 decision to the Big Gree&Then on Saturday afternoon, Amherst visited the DuPont courts and walked awayon the lower end of a 7-2 score.

triday's loss at Dartmouth was a heartbicaker. Under better conditbns, it isquite probable that the results might have been reversed. First, Bob McKirdey '.70,the team's number one man, was unable to play due to a bad virm cold. Thismade the rest of the team play at a position one higher than usual.
