In a month or two construction will begin on the MillikanMemorial Library, destined to be a narrow glass-and-steel struc­ture nine or more stories tall and consol idating all present Iibra­ries on campus. A week ago the Pasadena City Planning Com­mission approved a zoning variance to allow the building tohave its unprecedented height. So, if nothing else happens,contractors' bids will be received within a month and within twoyears we will have a modernistic sore thumb sticking up intothe smog from among the modest three-story Mediterraneanbuildings around the quad, and the eucalyptus trees will begone.

Realistic planning for the library has been going on forat least three years, with of course a cost of tens of thousandsof dolla,rs. Although the area between Bridge and Gates wasconceived as a central library site as early as 1920, only a recentgenerous gift by Dr. Seeley Mudd has brought the building closeto real ity. The present design was chosen from among some50 possible ones, and so many people have been involved inthe choosing that it is hard to tell where to put the blame.Aside from tradition, apparently the only reason for putting theIibrary where the trees are is that the spot is in a central loca­tion. But space is so limited there that, to keep the amountof ground occupied small, the edifice had to be made tall.

Now, we don't argue against the need for a central library;we a,re faced with underlit, depressing reading rooms and astock of books that overflows into halls and steamtunnels andlabs where books are decayed unmercifully. We are also notungrateful for Dr. Mudd's generous contribution that makes thenew building possible. But we are concerned about the pros­pects for having an eyesore on campus for the next 50 or 100years. The design for the building is not intrinsically ugly; butmodern architecture has its place, and on this campus it caneasily be out of place. Beckman Auditorium avoided being acomplete monstrosity by placing itself in relative isolation. Ifthe new style of Caltech buildings is destined to be along thelines of Keck and Booth and Millikan, then at least we mustavoid mingling them intimately with the grand old Spanishtile and vaulted ceilings.

Furthermore, is the proposed site really a central one?When the campus extends itself up to Del Mar, most likelywithin 30 years, the library would be down in the corner of thecampus. Certainly a location such as behind Steele (now beingconstructed) would be the central site of the future; and re­member that the library will serve under those future conditionsmore than half its life. Even if all teaching is still done in theblock of old buildings west of Throop, the people doing research,who use the library more and who will be spread all over thefuture campus, and the students, who go to the Iibrary to studymost often directly from the residence Houses, would welcomea true central location for something that everyone hopes willbe used a lot.

Granted that another acceptable design would cost anotherpile of money to produce, the easy resolution is to build thething where it will look respectable. We feel that good tasteand a (sometimes squelched) desire to be proud of our campusdemand that Millikan go north of San Pasqual.

Three new courses will en­rich the history curriculum start­ing third term. The courses, allsenior electives consisting ofnine units, are listed as follows:H21, Science in America, to beheaded by Donner Kevles; H42,An Age of Reform in America,will be taught by Robert L.WOOdbury; and H27, Compara­tive Politics, with Mrs. DorothyGuyot as instructor.

Each of the courses will re­quire three hours of class eachweek in addition to an estimatedsix hours of outside work.

Science in America consists ofan historical examination of thescientific community from 1865to the present time. Topics suchas the patronage of research andthe nature of a scientific career,will be discussed along with therelation between the scientistand science to the universities,industry, and government of theUnited States.

The major issues and person­alities of the progressive periodfrom 1890 to 1917 will be dis­cussed in An Age of Reform inAmerica. Political responses tothe social problems caused byemerging industrialization andurbanization will spice the sem­inars.

dicting, Bonner continued intothe future. Our heads after afew generations of scientific selec­tion will enlarge to accomodateour new-bred brains; soon it willbe too difficult to carry themwith us. Homo sapiens thenwill come in two pieces: onelittle piggy, the brain, stayinghome and analysing data; theother little piggy, a kit of sen­sory organs, going to market andgathering data.

So much for the near future.Once the world population hasbeen stabilized at about six bil­lion souls, Bonner forsees theday when governments will in­stitute human breeding programsto have the best possible six bil­lion. The six billion with themost valuable qualities can bescientifically chosen, said Bonner,who then outlined a program todo so.

Suppose Leon Fung is born.At birth a couple of thousandsperm cells are extracted fromhis testes and stored away in thedeep freeze. Poor, sterilizedLeon goes his way in the worlduntil he grapples with the Angelof Death (death wins). AfterLeon's dead, in other words, acommittee meets and decideswhether or not to use his sperm­atozoa. Who's on the commit­tee? Why, geneticists, of course.

Through the mind of this re­porter ran a swarm of the "bestpossible" six billions: the mostnoble six billion, the bravest sixbillion, the handsomest six bil­lion . .. Bonner, on the otherhand, had no doubts-"It'll be themost intelligent of course," heannounced. "We'll have six bil­lion Techmen."

The physical means for birthcontrol have been around for along time, but the need for theiruse has only now ben recognized.A good old Madison Avenue-styleadvertising campaign, said Bon­ner, such as was successfullywaged in Japan, is all that's re­quired to lower the birth rate.Leon's Life

are contributing the lion's shareof these infants, noted Bonner,and their tradition of large fam­ilies doesn't help a bit. He isconfident, however, that in theirstruggle for industrialization thepeoples of the underdevelopednations wi! be obliged to restricttheir growth rate. India devotes10% of her GNP to investment,for example, but her populationstill rises faster than her abilityto produce goods.

Above and Below the BeltSun spots occur in eleven year

cycles, generally in belts aboveand below the sun's equator.They are caused by the magneticfields of the sun's surface. Thefields hold the surface gases sta­tionary, thus cooling them andmaking them visible as darkspots.

These spots are accompaniedby solar flares, which are explo­sions sending great amounts ofgas and energy into space. Thiscauses problems here on earthby messing up radio communica­tions and might be disasterous toa space traveller.

Yet, while all these facts areknown about sun spots, manyquestions have not yet been an­swered. These, according toLeighton, are questions that thenext decade may .be able· to an·swer.

To complicate mat­ters even more the Church' tooka dim view on the new discoverysince Aristotle did not mentionthem. Still, the sun spots be­came well documented and arethe first reported evidence of thesun's rotation.

Young VowsTo GuardASCIT Money

As ASCIT Treasurer duringthe next year, my greatest con­cern will be the finances of whatcertainly isn't a profit-makingcorporation. Indeed, the .great­est problem which; the ASCITboard faces is determining howthe dues paid by ASCIT mem­bers can be most fairly and use­fully distributed.

Experience on the retiringboard has shown me the pitfallsand problems involved in thisprocess. I know that this ex­perience will be invaluable to mein helping to determine the fi­nancial situation of next year'sboard.

The post of IHC Chairman de­mands responsibility and leader­ship if the IHC is to maintainthe position which it has gainedover the past two years.

I have had experience on myHouse Excomm, so lam familiarwith the problems faced byHouse governments, and will bebetter able to coordinate the ac­tivities of the seven Houses. Mywork as editor of the Big T hasdemonstrated my leadership andresponsibility.

The IHC Chariman must havethe respect of Dr. Huttenback,the faculty committee, and theHouse presidents to be able tomaintain the position of author­ity which the IHC has gained. Ifeel that my past contacts withthese people and my record ofwork accomplished qualify mefor this position of respect.

If you want to maintain re­sponsibility on the IHC, andtherefore the right of the Housesto govern their own affairs, votefor me for IHC Chairman.

Bill Broste

But experience and basic abil­ity serve merely to narrow thefield-what really matters iswhether or not one "reallycares." I assure you that I docare and will carry out the dutiesof this position to the best ofmy ability.

Remember to vote for FISHERfor IHC Chairman-your votewill be sincerely appreciated.

Leonard Fisher

Although the large debt withwhich ASCIT began the last yearhas been largely eliminated,some unexpected misfortunes,the Brothers Four concert forone, and some inaccurately bUdg­eted undertakings, Lost Week­end is an example, forced theboard to cut some corners inother deserving areas. Althoughunfortunate, I feel strongly thatthis sort of strict adherence toa maximum expenditure is thebest financial policy for ASCIT.

ASCIT begins the new fiscalyear with an essentially cleansheet. I intend to do everythingin my power to see that nextyear at this time, the situationis the same.

REACH THEAND SLOTH

The ASCIT Secretary is pri­marily responsible for keepingyou informed about what theBOD is doing, for carrying oncorrespondence with other or­ganizations, and for representingthe student body in ASCIT de­cisions. I take these responsi­bilities seriously.

In the past, ASCIT financialdifficulties have seriously lim­ited the support it could lend tocampus activities. This comingyear ASCIT will be able to useits full budget in supporting ac­tivities for the first time in sev­eral years. With this in mind,careful consideration must begiven to these expenditures andclose attention paid to the detailsof ASCIT projects, to safeguardthe interests of all of us.

The secretary can be instru­mental in seeing that the wholestudent body is aware of thesedecisions and can insure that ev­eryone will have a chance tomake his wishes known. It ishis obligation to maintain con­tact between ASCIT and the stu­dent body. I have the desire,and I am willing to spend thenecessary time, to do these jobswell.

According to the ASCIT by­laws: "The IHC Chairman shallbe a member of the Board ofDirectors. He shall call and pre­side over meetings of the Inter·house Committee. He shall beChairman of the Honor PointCommittee. He shall be respon·sible for liaison between ASCITand the various House organiza­tions."

The~e are not easy duties, norare they limited in scope. Thisoffice calls not only for experi­'lmce, but also for interest andenthusiasm. My experience asHouse treasurer and DCC, aswell as work during rotation, hasgiven me valuable insight intointra-House activities. Further­more, participation in Interhousesports, past work as Head YellLeader of two years ago, andmembership in the Beavers haveprovided me with necessarybackground in Interhouse activi­ties. It is this combination ofbackground and insight i n t 0

intra- and Interhouse activitiesthat is a prerequisite for a per­son to hold the position of IHCChairman.

for the brave editors of yester­year, living and/or dead, haveconsecrated it far above our poorpower to add or subtract or ex­ponentiate.

And hot We therefore seekthe support and aid of you, Tech­men R. F. Troll, in bringingabollt new journalistic millenia.Mostly, we need you, you, you(not all necessarily the same in­dividual, to be sure) to scour,search, and perjure, that this pa­per might excel.

To effect this he is non-votingchairman of the Board of Con­trol and the prime representa­tive of the Honor System to boththe faculty and students. In ad­dition the Vice-President is amember of the ASCIT Board ofDirectors and acting President inthe President's absence.

At Caltech the Honor Systemis indeed a vital force. It is apractical mechanism which givesus many advantages, as take­home tests, and also an idealwhich many people hope to havegovern their entire lives.

It survives not by the rulingsof the BOC, but by the respectof the students. Its enfol'cement,then, should keep these facts inmind and neither press matterswhich are impractical or petty,nor neglect any region of cam­pus life which could be deeplyaffected by violations.

The position of ASCIT VicePresident is one of extreme im­portance to the Caltech studentbody. The ASCIT By-laws clear-

The ASCIT president is in theunique position of contact be­tween student government andadministration which makes himthe key to the success of manystudent plans. In this positionI plan to solicit continued facultysupport for the many ASCIT op­erated programs so vital to stu­dent life. The key examples arethe assembly series, coffee hour,and athletic programs. Thebroadening of the athletic pro­gram, hopefully, will be carriedout as was originally proposed,to include such possible sports asskin diving, squash, and handball.The faculty - student relationsproblem needs to be exploredalong the lines of more frequentfaculty visits to student houses.

Faculty members with an in­terest in the students lives andthoughts might consider gettingto know one house well, for onlythen is the air of tension dis­pelled; only then can a fruitfulexchange of ideas take place. Iam convinced that the studentsof any house would welcome thechance to have several interestedfaculty members visiting severaltimes a term. I turn now to thesubject familiar to all.

The Vice-President of the stu­dent body has two main jobs,the most important being Chair­man of the Board of Control. AsBOC Chairman, he performs thepreliminary investigation of pos­sible violations of the Honor Sys­tem, presents cases to the BOC,and presides over meetings.

In order to perform these du­ties properly, the Vice-Presidentmust have a thorough knowledgefo the workings of the BOC anda maximum of experience in mat­ters concerning the Honor Sys­tem. Having served on the BOCsince last February, I feel thatI meet these qualifications.

The Honor System is one ofthe most important aspects oflife at Tech. I wish to play anactive role in maintaining it.

The other duty of the ASCITVice-President is to serve on theBOD. Being active in campusaffairs, I feel that I have gaineda considerable knowledge of stu­dent opinion and will be able torepresent this opinion on theBOD.

There are several problems in­volved with social activities atCaltech. The two most impor­tant of these are participation bythe men and obtaining womenwith whom the men can "partici­pate." With these problems inmind, I support the followingpolicies which will provide moresuccessful ASCIT social events:1) More consultation of studentbody opinion regarding selectionof bands fot ASCIT exchangesand dances. 2) More communi­cation between the ASCIT socialchairman and the House socialcharimen. 3) More publicity forASCIT social events.

On the basis of these policies,and my experience as a Housesocial chairman, I ask for yoursupport.

Of all the offices to be filled inthe coming elections, there isnone from which you, the stu­dents, will hear so little as fromthe BOC Secretary. This silenceis not the result of traditionalshyness on the part of BOC sec·retaries, but is just a' conse­quence of the secrecy underwhich the BOC operates.

Although I'm unopposed forthis office, I would like to ex­press here a few of my feelingson matters concerning the Hon­or System.

First, communication betweenthe BOC and the student bodycould be betterXh,m it is. TheBOC's policy of never acting onprecedent and the secrecy withwhich meetings are conductedmake such things as policy state­ments very difficult, and disclo­sures of procedures and the dis­position of cases near impossible.

Communication in the otherdirection could, however, be im·proved. BOC members are al·ways anxious to hear sugges­tions regarding the Honor Sys·tem-if you think, for example,that a professor could do a bet­ter job of living up to his endof the Honor System, tell a BOCmember; maybe something canbe done.

Some individuals are reluc­tant, or unwilling, to extend theHonor System much beyond thesphere of academic matters. Ifwe are to continue to enjoy thevery effective and very advan­tageous state of affairs we nowhave at Tech, we must all bewilling to apply the Honor Sys­tem to all aspects of campus life.Carelessness in this area createsextremely difficult problems forthe BOC and hinders the effec­tiveness of the Honor System. Ihope you all will bear this inmind.

I'm grateful for the chance toserve as BOC secretary, and I'llsee that the duties of the officeare fulfilled to the extent of myabilities.

It is probable that the Beck·man use fee will be eliminatedsoon, or brought down to a rea·sonable level so that ASCIT willbe able to procure more high­level entertainment along thelines of the Brothers Four, Bud& Travis, etc., more often.

In addition, I plan to hold thecoffee hours at less frequent in­tervals than once a week, in or·der to increase attendance andinterest by making each coffeehour a more special event.

I will have more ideas and in­novations forthcoming, hopeful­ly, as the year goes on. Oh yes,my name is Jerry Yudelson, andI'm running for the office ofASCIT Activities Manager.

The most incredible Interhousesporting event of the past sever­al years has come and gone.Page House won the three-daymeet ahead of second-place Flem­ing and third-place Ruddock. Thestandings do not tell the story ofthe meet, nor do the individualfinishes of the events held lastWednesday through Friday atTournament Park.

It all started innocently enoughduring the trials on Wednesday.Dick Harley of Ruddock showedhis back to the rest of the packin the first heat of the 100-yarddash. Goral of Page did likewisemoments later in the second heat.DeWitt of Blacker easily rompedacross the finish line in first placein the 330, but Baze of Fleminghad a little trouble.

In the 220, it was DeWitt andHarley again as winners of theindividual heats.Good Clean Fun

The real fun started on Thurs­day with the field events. TwoInterhouse records were set andseveral other impressive perform­ances were recorded. Ricketts'favorite javelin thrower, CharlesSawicki, waited until his finaltoss to overcome a determinedbid by Hawk. a Flem. The dis­tance was 178' 9-5/8" for the sec­ond record of the afternoon; Lev­inson of Page was second. Thesetwo switched positions in theshot put, and Levinson completeda hard day's work by tying Dab­ney's Beard in the high jump.

Dabney wound up in the leadat the end of day due to the per­formances of Beard and Scott,each of whom placed in threeevents. Scott was one of themeet's three dOUble-winners, ex­celling in the pole vault and longjump, and placed third in thehigh jump.

Thus the stage was set for thefinale on Friday. Dabney had aone-point lead over Fleming afterthe field events; Page was close,only three points behind the lead­er, while Ruddock could amassbut 14 points in the six fieldevents, although placing at leastone man in each event, and was12 points behind the Darbs.Sob story

A couple of weeks ago, Rud­dock would have been unbeatableat this stage of the meet; DickHarley looked like a cinch win­ner in the sprints, Alan Lee wasin the same class as Doug Gagein the hurdle events, and severalother members of the Ruddockteam seemed likely to take sec­onds or thirds. However, Leeinjured himself in a footballgame, and Greg Shuptrine, theirsecond hurdler, was on a fieldtrip for half the meet. Anotherlab conflict cost them a partici­pant in the 1320; on Thursday atraffic accident cost them valu­able points in two field events.The outlook..was for a tight jin­ish.

The runners could hardly havehoped for a better day last Fri­day. The sun was shining, therewas only a slight breeze, and thetemperature was in the 60's, per­haps a little chilly for the sprin­ters.Like a bunny

As the gun was fired for thestart of the 1320, Rob Dickinsonforgot what race he was in andran the first lap in 60-flat; Black­er's leading distance runner,Thompson, ran a steady race, andwon easily. Bloom of Ruddockmoved from fourth to second inthe final twenty yards far be­hind Thompson. Logan of Rick­etts finished third and Dickinsonfaded to fourth in the final fewsteps.

Henry DeWitt coasted to a winin the 330 next, with Stu Galley(our master) about five yards be­hind; "Mad Dog" Baze chuggedin to grab the show money. It

Swimmers WinBy One Point

The Caltech swim team metUCLA and L.A. State last Satur­day at the Alumni Pool. Themeet was scored as a double-dualmeet and Caltech lost to eachopponent, to UCLA 73-21, and toL.A. State 60-34. Since USCdefeated UCLA 83-8 previously,it is safe to say that Caltech isdefinitely out of the running forthe NCAA championship thisyear, based upon comparativescores against common oppo­nents.

Earlier the same week (Thurs­day), Caltech defeated PCC in atight meet 48-47. The meet hungin balance throughout most ofthe final relay, but Rick Touton,the anchor man, was finally ableto finish half a pool length aheadto eke out the victory. LarryAnderson had an impressive per­formance by winning the 50 free,the 100 free, and participating inthe final relay.

The team travels today toSanta Monica Junior College tomeet Santa Monica and PierceJunior College.

In the second of such annualtournaments last Saturday, theCaltech fencing team was vic­torious by a narrow margin overCalifornia State College at LosAngeles (better k now n asLASC).

The match was held at theSouthern California Fencing Cen­ter in Los Angeles. The fencerswere split into two foil teams,one epee team, and one sabreteam. Each man fenced onlyone bout in each of the eventsthat he entered.

At stake was the Delmar Cal­vert trophy, named after thefencing maestro at both schools.The Caltech fencers were JohnHsu in the epee, foil, and sabreevents; Jay Freeman in foil;Greg Kourilsky in foil; Dan Mc­Cammon in epee and foil; DanMetlay in epee, foil, and sabre;and Carl Paul in foil and sabre.

Before the last bout, the scorewas 6-5 against Caltech in boutsand 42-42 in total touches. CarlPaul won the final match in sa­bre against Piper of LASC byfive touches to four, bringing thebout score to 6-6. However, thewin delivered the trophy to Cal­tech by giving our team a onetouch advantage out of a totalof 93.

The second period saw LaVerne whittle away the Beaver'slead to a mere three points withabout three minutes left; how­ever, our frosh finally pulled to­gether and broke it up with 10straight markers at the game'send. Stanley and Fink led thescorers with 23 and 22 respective­ly, while Terry Bruns contri­buted 12 and John Frazzini 14.

Pasadena College was thescene of Ruddock's second Dis­cobolus victory over Page thisyear; this time the men in blueoverwhelmed their opponents inhandball, 4-1. Due to difficultiesin scheduling, the match washeld last Monday afternoon.

Ruddock, who also challengedPage in soccer and track, wasdisappointed that the eventuallosers chose the less manly sport,went ahead with the challengeanyway, and sent four membersof the softball team that beatPage last fall against them again,this time in handball, with anequally decisive result.

Four singles matches wereplayed plus one doubles matchat the PCC three-wall courts. Allgames were played to 21 pointsand the first to win two gameswas declared the winner of thematch. An additional rule stip­ulated that a game must be wonby at least two points.Strike One

Les Fettig, Ruddock's short­stop, faced Hammons first. Be­fore the crowd had settled down,Les had won the first game 21-6.The second game didn't takenearly as long-21-1.

In the meantime Mike Dole,another Ruddock frosh, was be­ing taught a lesson by the moreexperienced Radcliffe in twostraight games, 21-5 in each.Strike Two

Page refrained from any sub­sequent cheering as Bo Barbosa,Ruddock's catcher, showed hisall-around athletic ability againstIsgur in straight games 21-8 and21-5. Bo's favorite shot was akarate chop whack at the ball.

Flip Karlton clinched thematch by beating Thompson ofPage 21-8 and 21-5 just as thedoubles match began.You're Ollt

Page put up a good fight indoubles, but Dickinson and Yo­shida, whose athletic prowesshad been proven in Ruddock'soutfield, were too much for theJubin-Schwartz combination, 21­8, followed by 21-13.

The major fact­or in the victory was the overallbalance displayed by the Beavers;four men scored in double fig­ures. Also 67% of the foul shotswere swished, most necessary inclose contests.

With the opening tip the menfrom Caltech took the lead.Working the "Loyola continuity"to perfection, guards Jim Stanleyand Carl Fink scored basket uponbasket on easy lay-up shots. Athalftime the ledger read 47-35,Tech.

the tough match he fought, onlyto lose 5-7, 2-6. The Redlandsteam has enough talent that Pea­cock, best frosh in the confer­ence last year, only played sec­ond doubles against Tech Satur­day.

Tech fared little better in thefrosh match, but Jeff Haight andEd Groth put up determinedfights and each won a set beforebeing defeated.

The Caltech Varsity tennisteam played its first match of theseason last Thursday at T.P. andlost to Cal Poly. The final scorewas 5-3, with three of the indi­vidual matches going the fullthree sets and two matches end­ing in ties. Hosher and Buck­holtz won singles matches forCaltech, while Ellis and the teamof Rose-Pressing tied.

The home courts proved to beof little advantage against twovery strong Redlands teams lastSaturday. In the varsity divi­sion, the hard-hitting Redlandsplayers swept all nine matchesas part of their bid for the con­ference crown. Techman JohnHasher deserves special note for

a tremendous start. He nevermade it to the first curve, as thestrain on his thigh muscle causedhim to fall to the track; as hehad to oe helped to his feet, theRuddock team did not finish,thereby handing over the meetto Page; the rest of the race wasa mere formality, as Resneyhung on to beat Kimbrell.

As the gun was raised for thestart of the 880 relay, an eeriesilence hung over TournamentPark. Crack! They were ontheir way. Hunsaker, in the us­ual Ruddock tradition, was giventhe outside lane, and got off to

only a five-minute rest since hislast event.Guess what?

Don Radcliffe won the highhurdle event for Page; Flemingmanaged to come in second andfifth, while Daniel pulled out asurprise third for Ruddock.

the afternoon was the 660. GregBrewer, following the advice ofhis coach, spotted a hole in thepack at the start, and moved intothird place before the first turn.Running a nearly perfect race,the Rudock frosh pulled the big­gest surprise win of the meet,with the respectable time of1:31.5.

Then things began to get tense.Ruddock and Fleming were tiedfor first, but Page was a scanthalf-point behind. L a a kin gahead, it appeared that Ruddockwould battle Page in the final re­lay to decide the meet, especiallyif Radcliffe won the hurdles andHarley the 220.

DeWitt almost wrecked Rud­dock's hopes in the 220, by clos­ing very fast on Harley, but theRuddock frosh held on to win ina photo-finish. Resney of Pagenailed the lid on Fleming's cof­fin by taking third place awayfrom Flem Kimbrell.

In an era where the frontiers of intellectual endeavor demand constant investigation, imagination must be the crux ojmotivation.

The research laboratories at the National Security Agency exemplify that rare activity where imagination and alook at the possibilities of tomorrow are the accepted philosophy.

the 220 intermediate hurdles.Radcliffe bettered his own Inter­house record, as expected, andShuptrine, fin a 11 y recoveringfrom his falls of last year, alsobroke the previous record for sec­ond place. Wright of Flemingfinished in third place, hangingon to his pants over each hurdle.

By this time the sun was set­ting and the air was getting abit chillier. Maybe the tensionin the air was partly responsiblefor this effect, but it was definite­ly noticeable. A low murmurwas heard all over the infield,various people asking about thescore and the prospects for thelast event, the relay.

Ruddock had 49lh points, Page49, and Fleming trailed with 46lh.If Rudock won the relay, theywould win the meet; the samewith Page. If Fleming won therelay, then whoever took secondwould win the meet, unless itwas Blacker, in which case Flem­ing would walk away as the win­ners.

What does it take to "spark" a man to his verybest . . . to bring out the fullest expression of hisability and training? At Ford Motor Companywe are convinced that an invigorating businessand professional climate is one essential. A primeingredient of this climate is the stimulation thatcomes from working with the top people in afield ... such as Dr. James Mercereau.Jim Mercereau joined our Scientific Laboratoryin 1962. Recently, he headed a team of physicistswho verified aspects of the Quantum Theory bycreating a giant, observable quantum effect insuperconductors. This outstanding achievement

was the major reason the U. S. Junior Chamber of Commerce selectedDr. Mercereau as one of "America's Ten Outstanding Young Men of 1964."Your area of interest may be far different from Dr. Mercereau's; however,you will come in contact with outstanding men in all fields at FordMotor Company.We believe the coupling of top experience and talent with youth andenthusiasm is stimulating to all concerned. College graduates who joinFord Motor Company find themselves very much a part of this kind ofteam. If you are interested in a career that provides the stimulation ofworking with the best, see our representative when he visits your campus.We think you'll be impressed by the things he can tell you about workingat Ford Motor Company.

If, by some strange miracle,these bewildered souls manageto open their eyes beyond thefuzzy-eyelish zone they will im­mediately be enlightened withthe knowledge that the mysteri­ous object is an airplane!Guess What! .'

This will be the finalclue: the Caltech Flying Club isin the air!!!
