MIT', UAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS FRIDAY, MAY 16. 1969 FIVE CFNTqr

By Alex MakowskiMerits of the present tenure

system and the values and limita-tions of our present grading andexam processes highlighted the

lsecond open hearing for the NewLewis Commission Friday.

Professor Gian-Carlo Rota.chairman of the Freshman Advi-sory Council, developed a lengthyanalysis of our grading system.Charging that our ABCDF marksdo not properly evaluate as well aspopularly believed, he suggestedthat the new panel consider arestructuring of MIT's gradingprocedure.

Discussion of tenure comparedthe current American system to aproposed five or ten year contractstructure. This, emphasized theprofessor offering the idea, wouldtake some of the pressure off thebacks of junior faculty members.

But Professor Sheldon Penmanreminded the audience of the ef-fect this system has had in theSoviet Union. Rather than easingfear of Department Chairmen, ap-

Cure-all?Yet with all tf;is discussion

Harold Federow warned, we mustavoid expecting the commissiorto be a panacea for MIT. The oldLewis report, he pointed out, contains too many suggestions for

.reform that were never iramplemented - as if the communityconscience were eased by seeingthe problems set down in print.

-President Johnson agreed thata solution never results from justthe presentation of the diffi-culties. He promised action basedon the findings of the panel.

.L ~By Joe KashiThe Samuelson-Friedman de-

bate produced some smoke andheat, but little light as fiscal pro-ponent Paul Samuelson of MITand monetary promoter MiltonFriedman managed to agree onlythat both monetary and fiscalpolicy were are important.

Fiscal policy deals with govern-mental attempts to control econ-omic growth through the use oftaxes and other forms of econ-omic stimuli or brakes. One formof stimulus would be deficitspendirig by the government,which is often an economic spur.Likewise, a budgetary surplusoften tends to slow down anoverheated economy.

' Nixon advisorFriedman, an Economics pro-

fessor from the University of Chi-cago and a frequent economicadivsor to Richard Nixon andBarry Goldwater, believes that' thegovernment can best help the ec-onomy by controlling the amountof money in circulation. This isthe so-called monetary policy.

The Federal Reserve Bank isprimarily responsible for this formof regulation. In addition, the

Federal Reserve Bank is usuallyfree of the political restrictionsimposed by a Congress reluctantto increase taxes. In this way, it isable to speed up or slow down theeconomy as it feels necessary byincreasing or decreasing the sup-ply of money.

While neither Samuelson norFriedman totally disavowed theusefulness of the other's form ofeconomic policy, both claimedthat events had born out theirown respective schools of policy.Friedman offered the continuinginflation as an example. Jolmsonfinally was able to increase effect-ive taxes with the surcharge, butthis raise had a negligible effectupon the economy. Keynesian ec-onomics predicted otherwise.Samuelson countered by statingthat the monetary supply wasincreasing at the same time, thusnegating the'effect of the taxraise.

Moral position

Samuelson did admit he wasarguing from a moral position attimes, notably for regulatory com-missions such as the SEC whoseprimary function is to protectpeople. The nation must decidethe goal towards which its econ-omic policy is to be directed,taking humanitarian objectives in-to account.

Some topics were not substan-tially disputed by either speaker.Both Friedman and Samuelsonactively advanced free interna-tional trade. However, Friedmanwent further and advocated theabolition of all tariffs, arguingthat competition and efficiencywould enable the US to more thanhold its own. Samuelson statedthat the dollar has become anover-valued currency. To this,Friedman answered: "So what...[the US is so economically power-ful that] ... they don't have to liket, they have to take it...there'sstill a minimum of coercion in thevorld."

Undaunted by the poor publi-city and a beautiful day, MITgathered Thursday in the GreatCourt to honor outstanding stu-dents, staff, and faculty membersof the past year.

There were many parents inthe small crowd of about 150.Those who came early pulledIchairs from one of the stacks andset them up for parents andfriends. Thsoe who came after theceremonies started stood aroundthe perimeters.

Many appeared to be unin-formed about the event. The Re-gistrar had neglected to post a sign

on the bulletin board in Building7 to say that classes had beencancelled. Instead, a letter wascirculated to all professors re-questing them to announce thecancellation of classes.

Nixon's reforms have a hollowring because of the way he wentabout recommending them. The.President has executive powersthat allow himn to change theorder of call, end occupationaldeferments, make standards moreuniform, and modernize the sys-tem without Congressional ap-proval.

And he neglected to commenton the future of what manyyoung people feel is the symbol ofthe antiquated draft: DirectorLewis B. Hershey, with his sightgetting worse and his age advanc-ing.

The President's call for Con-gressional action was full of therecent rhetoric of draft recorm,aiming for equity and reasonable-ness: "We can do no less for theyouth of our country," he said.Young men turning 18 and otherswho care had hoped for more.

WASHINGTON (CPS)-President Nixon last-week pro-posed a major overhaul of theSelective Service System thatwould include selection of 19year-olds first by lottery. But thePresident's proposals fell far shortof completely eliminating the in-equities and uncertainties inherentin the draft.

He asked Congress to admendthe Selective Service Act. so hecould make these changes:

*Change from an oldest-first toa youngest-first call-up system,

*Reduce the period of primevulnerability from seven years toone year,

*Utilize a random, or lottery,selection system,

*Continue undergraduate de-ferments but place students in theprime vulnerability pool for oneyear after studies end,

*Permit graduate students tocomplete the full year instead of-one term if they are ordered forinduction, and

*Review guidelines, pro-cedures, and standards related toexemptions and deferments.

The trouble with Nixon's pro-posals, as even the New YorkTimes noted, is not what is in itbut what is not. The Presidentvirtually ignored the suggestionsmade by a 1967 White Housecommission that would havecleaned up uniform standards onall local boards. Moreover, Nixon

Following up on their GeneralAsseminbly appearance, ProfessorJohn Graves and Jim Smith offi.cially presented their proposal fora Bachelor of Arts degree. Theirun-structured program would per-mit students more freedom indesigning their MIT education.

As for staffing the new Lewisgroup, one professor asked thatemphasis be placed on selectingyounger men. "We older profes-sors" he remarked, "look to the.past, while younger men look tothe future."

Faculty housingReturning to faculty-related is-

sues, a need for on-campus facultyhousing was expressed. The es- ·

sence of a true college communityis the faculty-student interchangepossible only when professors canreadily mingle with under-graduates.

Johnson welcomed the senti-ment. Many times, while strollingthrough the campus after dinner,he had sensed the absence ofMIT's faculty. Some way to over-come the pre-dinner exodus mustbe found.I

confine ourselves to words, for thehour is getting late and the time foraction is ufeon us.

Yours - with some sorrow, somepity, and a little hope,

Michael AlbertAn Open Letter to the FacultyMiddlemen.

My salutation may seem strong or,sad; mean or mild: it is only the way Ifeel[, nothing more and certainly no-thing less. Your role, whether it be awelcome one or not,' is in no wayfitting for any group; you must notacquiesce.

:This ;University, like all others, issuffering from many and varied mala-dies. Some would have us believe thatthe germs are students - thus you needonly eliminate the most unruly onesand health -shall abound. Do not befooled, gentlemen - you should haveto eliminate us all, and then lo andbehold someone would suggest that"Oh well, we were wrong all along, thegerms are faculty." A personal purge isno answer, we must come together, notapart.

That however seems patently ab-surd - How can we come together?The common assumption is that theonly way is to cover over disagree-ments, avoid dissension, and ride outthe storms with smiles and good willfor all. Under those conditions, yoursmiles are plastic, your good-will false;let us dispense with pretense please,and remember that we are equals. Wecannot be afraid of our emotions, if itis anger we feel we must show it, to dootherwise is to invite disaster. Disagree-ment by any other name is still dis-agreemenM. To come to terms we mustallow reality to surface. One can beemotional and at the same time ra-tional - indeed there is in my mind agrave questio n about whether or'notone can be rational without beingemotional, at least in times such .asthese.

We are all concerned that there bechange; we are all concerned thatnon-violence prevail; but are we asconcerned about violence to tothers asviolence to ourselves? And how do wedefine violence, do we include psycho-logical and economic deprivation whenwe talk of intimidation? The normal·,rrder.~of-..u---':ives-is--pernmIated by alevel of Coercion and force that isinhuman and indeed intolerable -speak not to me of sit-ins, while thewar wages; I don't want to hear aboutfree speech from any save those whospeak freely. The material deprivationof the ghetto; the spiritual deprivationof all our lives - reason enough Ibelieve to rebel.

It is difficult to address you as awhole, you have~ little in commonamong yourselves; less in common witlime. At the same time we are all peopleand if I am right the problems andthoughts that occupy my mind should,must, and will occupy yours. In thefuture I intend to treat you as equalsand people - you ask what can thatmean? It means simply that I willrespect your integrity and intelligence,I shall speak to you as I would to myfriends, no words deleted, no ideasspared ~ my style will reflect myfeelings. .

The decorum of your meetings re-flects MIT, as it was, not as it is. Youare treated like children - and youaccept it. It eludes me to think why.Don't you share my angers and frustra-tions? Don't you desire to work hardand long not at 'business as usual' butat rebuilding this sick society? Hasn'tthe sterility of our personal relation-ships provoked you to thought; to adesire for change? Does the war eat atyour mind? Indeed, are your kidsrebelling? Do you really feel you couldstand trial? I couldn't.

Let me not drag on. There is abattle being waged near and far, ittakes many forms; it has many effects.The time is not far distant when therewill be no middle ground. The events

project. He spent some time inreading the textbook and sometime doing homework problems.There was some time spent listen-ing to what I (Dr. King) call freeassociations about the materialand some time in interviews inwhich I would suggest things toread that might be of interest. Thematerial was approached in manydifferent ways from one day tothe next, so that in a funny way itreally wasn't concentrated. Thestudents just didn't sit down anddo problem seven and do problemeight and nine. It was rathervaried.Q. How did you go about guid-ing the students' projects?A. First, all the projects wereworked on in partnerships. Ofcourse they had some problems-since you had to have compatiblepeople but the relationships wereof the kind that the Institute doesnot ordinarily foster. Anyway Iwould be in the laboratory fromnine'to ten thirty every day tosort of wander around and ad-mire, or question, or worry, orwhatever seemed appropriate. inother words I worked the sameway that graduate thesis super-visors work with their students.

wonder secretly if there are somekind of records. There really wereno records. I did keep a book ofthe interviews with somethingabout what questions they askedthat also served as a sort ofscratch record of what we talkedabout so that things that werementioned several times could bebrought up in lecture.Q. What sort of encouragementwas there to do the homework?A. Well, we had a transient oc-currence. My graduate assistantdecided that it would be pedago-gically sound if the homeworkwere collected and corrected, andI felt there was some sense to this.So I said, well go ahead andcollect the homework, and every-body sort of looked down. Soonafter they started complaining inprivate., Maybe they j ust don't likehaving the homework collected.So we rescinded the order. You(the interviewer) have seen thereport and know that most of thehomework was done.Q. How important do you thinkproblem sets are in a course likethis when there are so many otherthings going on?A. I feel that doing homeworkproblems is useful if one learns

problems or less problems.. Myguess is that the sort of dailyinterview we had put on a littlepressure. The importance of anydifferent ingredients of this exper-iment is plainly different for dif-fereni people.Q. The question was not justabout problem sets but aboutdifferent ways of learning.A. Well the students in generalwere exposed to a cycle of seeingsomething in the morning in laband talking about that. If any oneof them was particularly interest-ed in that topic then I would sendhim off to find out about it. Thenlater in the afternoon there was ahomework problem on the samesubject as the lab and discussion.The role of the problems was toforce the student to sit down afterseeing the material or before see-ing it and work it out for himself.Q. What about the students? Dothey get tired of just seeing phy-sics?A. Naturally it varied. The pro-gram is not the end-all since itsuits some students and notothers, in fact it suits some teach-ers and not others.Q. Then what about the integra-tion of lab work into the curricu-lum?A. I don't think it will succeedvery well. The corridor labs andproject labs are the best of a badthing. In the last analysis the bestthink is for a student to come to aresearch lab and find someonewhom he enjoys working with andsomeone who will take him ser-iously and get him going.Q. What sort of topics do youthink are amenable to study inthis way?A. Far more subjects are amen-able to it than seems obvious atfirst glance. That is one of thereasons for my wanting to havemore publicity. In fact any seriouswork is done in concentratedform. It is possible to turn aroundand ask how people have beenputting up with the five coursesituation.O. What about evaluation?A. I think the only way you canis not to evaluate it but to press tohave a number of people try it outand the degree of enthusiasm willmeasure it. It will become part ofthe system, and no one really-valuates the system. It will be,valuated by the fact of someone

ILEKOumtfD I VaughanBy Robert Mccall

The first recording of RalphVaughan William's 7th Sym-phony, based on themes from hissoundtrack of the film Scott ofthe Antarctic, uses some unusualtechiniques, making the albumworth noting. First: the insertionof spoken superscriptions at thebeginning of each movement bySir Ralph Richardson adds tre-mendously to the overall theme ofthe Antarctica journey of Scott,and also recalls other heros whofought nature and lost. Anothernovel device is a "wind machine"in the first and fifth movementsof the Symphony.

The movements suggest the dif-ferent moods of the explorers:arrival, setting off on the journey,,during it, and the end, as they dieof frostbite three miles from theirdestination. ";To suffer woeswhich hope think infinite..." be-gins the first movement (AndanteMaestoso), depicting the awesomemajesty of the southern wasteswhich the expedition is about tocross. Vaughan Williams introdu-ces a theme that is presentthroughout the Symphony (withthe. exception of the fourth move-ment) played by the bass instru-ments that express the drudgeryand monotony in all phases of thecrossing.

The second movement (Moder-ato) is a quick scherzo, which

slows~.down little by little into thebass theme. ";There go the shipsand there is that Leviathan..."Now they are alone and eager inthe task before them, the journeystarts quickly and easily, but thesnow, the cold, the wind, and thewolves are against them as theyreach the mood that is to prevailthroughout the crossing.

The third (Lento) is a musicaldescription of the landscape aboutthem, starting with the intricatebeauty at their fimgertips and thensuddenly rising in a majestic swellas if approaching a large barrier,elegant in its imposing nature.This movement. is, ironically, theweakest of the Symphony, calling-upon themes and moods fromother movements without suffi.cient development of any.

The fourth movement (An-dante Sostenuto) has no feeling ofAnarctica: it is warm and humnan,depicting the men inside the tentand away from the cold, the menwho can forget, for one briefmoment, that their lives are indanger. Yet, towards the end, thiswarmth dies off into nothingness,ike the fading flicker of an extin-

gwisned flame.Cinema orgnp

The lines for the last mnove-ment are taken from CaptainScott's Journal:"I do not regretthis journey; we took risks, weknew we took them, things havecome out against us, therefore, wehave no cause for complaint." TheEpilogue (Alla Marcia Moderato,ma non troppo)_has the forces ofnature finally -overpowering the'

theme that is re'lated to the men,but more in a way expressing anybrave man overwhelmed by cir-cumstances.

Vaughan Williams' SymiphonyNo. 7 is well done and is not, assome critics. have inferred, down-graded by the fact that it hascome out of the cinema. Othergreat composers of our time haverewritten concert music frowntheir movie scores, among -themShostikovich and Procoftoff, andlittle is said of them in this re-spect. Andre Previn has, perhaps,put too much embellishment intothe music; however this served tointensify the spectacular nature ofthe score. This Symphony is listedas the first of a series of VaughanIWilliams' Symphonies.

It is impossible to tell, fromthe fact that a driver mad "speed-ometer errors," the article goeson, whether drugs would alter thespeed at which a person wouldnormally drive. But the research-ers say they have reason to believethat drivers "high" on marijuanawould drive more slowly thannormally, rather than faster'.

The testers recruited experi-enced marijuana users for most ofthe experiments, but also ran thetests on persons who had neverused the drug.

By Pete PeckarskyBen Wilson '70 led the New

England IC4A's 3000 meter steeplechise from start to finish as-heset a conference record in thegrueling event. The Golden Jetwas favored to win the event andwas granted the pole position onthe starting line. After two laps,he had opened up twenty yards ofdaylight on the pack. Charlie Langof UMass closed the gap to fiveyards on Wilson midway throughthe race but was unable to ap-proach any closer. With two lapsto go, the Golden Jet cut in theafterburners and left Lang farbehind. Wilson streaked to thetape in the record time of 8:51 .8.His effort smashed the year-oldmark posted by 1968 BAA Mara-thon Champion Amby Burfoot of

-Wesleyan.In the three mile, Art Dulong

-Holy Cross distance phenom,and Wilson waged a battle royalefor the -first half of the race.Wilson shot out to the lead for the

first half mile in a typically quickstart. On the third lap, RichardSpurling of UConn and Dulongcame storming past. Wilson stayed-right, with them for a lap untilSpurting tired and faded. Wilsonshadowed D)ulong for the nexttwo laps until Dulong suddenlypulled away at the mile and one-half mark as the effects ofWilson's -record-setting steeple-chase race began to take their toll.The race ended with the runnersin that order.

Back in the pack, newly-elected 1970 outdoor track cap-tain Larry Petro '70 was fightingfor fifth place. Petro closed thegap to 20 yards on Ron Wayne ofUJMass with a lap to go. However,Paul Ho ss, of UMass slipped aheadof Petro in the final kick over thelast lap as Petro finished seventh.

On the strength of WilsonI's tenpoint -effort, MIT placed 15th inthe meet. Coast Guard and HolyCross tied at 35 points apiece forthe championship.

The intramural softball crownwas bitterly contested betweentwo even adversaries, SAE andSAM, until the SAElors clinchedthe game and the title on the last.pitch of the season. Winning pit-cher Don Paul's ground single upthe middle drove in the tying andwinning runs in the 7-6 triumph.

At the beginning of the game itappeared that the Sarnmies wouldrepeat their 12-4 clubbing of theSAElors. Al Czernicki led off witha lined single to left field. Withthe infield drawn in for the bunt,Stu Nernser poked a ground ballin the hole which the shortstopmake a fine stop on ,but couldn'tdo anything with. Ira Sacks load-ed the bases with a shot to leftfield. Rich Haberman's and KenGilbert's sinlgles drove in a runapiece to leave the bases stillplugged with no outs. -However,Paul induced the next two battersto pop up before walking rivalhurler Paul Sitkus and forcing inyet another score. SAE got out ofthe inning without any furtherdamage.

That's how twhe game stayeduntil the seventh as the Sarnmiescontinually got under Paul's softpitching. SAE didn't have muchsuccess against the hard throwingSitkus either.

(CPS) - A recent experimentdesigned to test the comparativeeffects of alcohol and marijuanaon driving performance has showngrass the winner in nearly everycategory. The research was repor-ted in the current issue of Science

The test, run in Seattle, Wash.,by the state's Department of Mo-tor Vehicles and medical profes-sors from the· University of Wash-ington; measured the responses ofindividuals intoxicated with alco-hol, high on marijuana, and innormal condition. The subjects,who were tested repeatedly over aperiod of weeks to prevent error,were placed inside a driving simu-lator which shows movies of dri-ving situations and measures thespeed and strengtlh of their re-sponses to te6 films.

The simulators, the Motor Ve-hicles department says, will soonreplace standard driving tests forWashington applicants for drivers'licenses. The machines, an officialsays, "test the quality of a per-son's driving--not just whetheror not he avoids violations."

The test subjects were mea-sured for steering errors, use ofturn signals at the wrong time,speedometer errors, and total er-rors.

In every case, and after re-peated tests, drivers who wereunder the influence of alcoholmade significantly more errors inall the categories except steering.Drivers who experienced a "nor-mal social marijuana high" mademore speedometer errors than theothers, but in all other areas theirdriving was exactly like that undernormal conditions. They alsomade the same number of totalsrrors as "normal" test subjects.
