An exciting new exhibition

entitled Patterns is

currently open at TheFranklin Institute Science

Museum 20th and the

Parkway Philadelphia PA on

June 11 and will be featured

thru January 1982

Hundreds of artifacts

musical scores reproductions

of paintings and drawingshands-on deves for visitor

experimentation and computerterminals will be employed to

ilhsirate the exhibits theme --

Patterns are everywhere Theexhibit explores the diverse

Connections betweenmathematics and the arts by

examining some basic

mathematical concepts which

rWz1r v__-mathematicians and artists talk

about the same thing -- but in

different languages

Both the artist andmathematician frequently tryto represent patterns in the

universe the mathematician

drives for the most abstract

conception while the artist

communicates in concrete

images

There is lot of

mathematics that they dontteach you in school that is

simple and intuitive explainsDaniel Goldwaterdirector Programs and

Education and often artists

discover andexpress it on

their ownMuch of the mathematics in

Patterns is familiar But

there will be less familiar

experiences too Visitors will

be able to use computers to

recreate painting byEllsworth Kelley that used

random numbers in its

composition create their ownattractive symmetry patterns

compose simple music or find

out how serialist Composersused mathematics in their

work

In addition to the manycomputer programsPatterns offers 12

experimental stations for

visitors of all ages Music that

baa mathematical basis will

be presented as well as

resource center stocked with

magazine articles bookstapes with COmmentary the

mathematics of musical scales

ising Mozart composition and

mach more

The exhibition is divkled

into four main sections --

Symmetry Perspective

Geometry and Numbers --

each providing different

exposure to the relationship

between math and the arts

In the Symmetry section

for example visitors will have

an opportunity to experience

mathematical symmetrythrough experiments with

kalcidescopes that allow them

to make their own vivid

luminous patterns and to see

how these same patterns have

appeared in various art

traditions from Islamic tiling

to American quilts Visitors

will also be encouraged to

explore what mathematicians

call symmetry operationsand what artists have been

exreuing in bLdh oonorpt

and visual forms since before

Egyptian times

Through an assortment of

hands-on devices the

Perspective area offers visitors

chance to make

perspective drawing onCamera Obscura to take homeas souvenir

Patterns delves into basic

geometry -- such as the fact

that light travels in straight

line and then illuminates

how this simple concept has

been used or ignored often

deliberately by artists in their

attempts to represent the real

world

Because majorobjective of campusnewspaper is to serve as

forum for the debate of

campus and current isaues the

Beaver News will make

every effort to publish

promptly letters to the editor

Priority will be given to

letters which are written

by students or employees of

the college or written by

outsiders but address issues

that directly concern the

college

There are not limitations

on the subject matter of

letters However priority will

be given to letters dealing

with current events and

campus developments

The editor will use

hiWher discretion in publishing

mimeographed or mass

produced letter submitted byoutsiders

It is preferred that letters

be oriented to issues as

opposed to personalities

Priority also will be given

to letters that are critical of

the name of paper or that

are written in direct reply to

an editorial or news story

When necessary the

newspaper will print short

editors note with letter The

overriding purpose should be

to make the letter more

understandable to the reader

and to clarify the facts

If the editor wishes to

answer letter with detailed

rebuttal the editor should do

so in an editorial which is

published the issue following

the letter

Letters should be typed

double-spaced and no morethan 300 words in length If

letter is too long the author

will be contacted andasked to edit the letter to the

proper length

10 The editor has the right

to reject letters that border on

being libelous obscene or in

extreme poor taste

11 The newspaper will not

alter the wording or meaning

of letter However it

reserves the right to correct

spelling punctuation and

grammar and to edit the letter

according to news style

12 The newspaper reserves

the right to refuse letters

written in bizarre style or in

foreign language

13 Letters should be signed

and the authorship known to

the editors However if the

writer wishes and the editor

agrees the writers name will

be left off the letter upon

publication and an inscription

inserted such as namewithheld at the request of the

writer or name on file at the

newspaper office

14 The editors will confirmi

the authorship ofall published

letters

15 There will be instances

when the paper will not have

space to print all letters it

receives Letters should be

selected to achieve diversity

Lesstimely letters will be

discarded or published when

space permits

When the newspaperreceives large number of

letters on one subject or

stating the same position

space limitations will permit

publication of few

representative letters Aneditors note could indicate

the number and authors of

similar letters that werereceived

17 Letters will be

displayed attractivelyHeadlines may be placedabove letters to give them

prominence However such

headlines should not commenton the letter

sarcastically

Editors may want to insert

some art work with letters

possibly photograph or pen-and-ink sketch The purposeof art work is to focus

attention on the letters

section

18 The letters section

should serve readers of the

newspaper Staff members

wishing to editorialize should

do so in special column-not

letter

19 The editor has the

prerogative to use letter as

the basis for news story At

such times it may not be

necessary to publish the

original letter

authority to determine which

and how many letters to

publish

as alive as ever The Eagles new album is doing well Even

defunct groups from the like The Animals are going

through resurgence of popularity on stere acrs campuses

of rock bands reads like the lineup from Mutual of Omahas

Wild Kingdom It doesnt Well then you should have no

trouble matching the ten rock recordings listed below with the

animal groups that brought them to the charts And lust to make

it bit more grizzly the editors of Games magazine have

thrown in five mythical groups to throw you off the track
