Commissioner Francis F. Sar- gent disclosed the detailed plans for the $62,861,000 highway, which is expected to displace 1235 fam- ilies and 2116 jobs. Causes least damage "After long and careful con- sideration of the human factors and social conditions related to the selection of a line for the In- ner Belt in Cambridge, the Brookline - Elm (West) Route would cause the least permanent damage to the community and at the same time provide unique ad- vantages because of special con- sideration given to engineering and design of the highway," Sar- gent reported. Sargent added that in addition to developing a beneficial high- way plan, the Department of Pub- lie Works was also charged with evaluating the social questions of homes versus jobs. "Every factor was carefully weighed, especially the displace- ment of a family to the impact of displacing a job. It was a diffi- cult decision to make, but the Commonwealth could not shrink from its responsibility and com- mitment to construct a fully in- tegrated interestate and defense highway system."

The plans have not gone un- opposed. Mayor Daniel J.

design control systems that max-imize some desired flight attributeor minimize some undesired dis-advantage. In the case of theNavy F4H Phantom supersonic in-terceptor, the time to climb to thedesired fighting altitude of 70,000ft. can be cut in half if the pilotfollows the optimum flight profile.This turns out to be a steep climbto 40,000 feet, followed by a pre-cisely prescribed shallow dive.When the aircraft reaches super-sonic speed in the dive, the pilotpulls up and literally shoots to70,000 feet.

Other usesThe same theory will be useful

in working out a climb path fora supersonic transport that willuse the least amount of fuel. TheSST, Dr. Bryson said, will gulpfuel at an enormous rate whileclimbing, and optimal control-the-ory will help minimize this disad-vantage.

Optimal control theory also isfinding application in planningspace vehicle trajectories to dis-tant planets with minimum enginefuel, in designing autopilots. cap-able of giving the smoothest pos-sible ride despite gusty winds,and in the design_ of air-to-airmissiles.

The Beaver Key is supposed to be an, honorary for outstanding juniors. Earliero- this week, in a belated attempt to recog-

nize some outstanding juniors, the Beav-- er Key elected to its memnbership threeT members of Inscomm's new ExecutiveE Committee and the new president of T-< Club. We feel that a very real question

>: can be raised, asking why juniors as out-< standing as those just elelted hadn't been

included when the bulk of this year'su Key was elected last spring.

The answer is obvious, consideringthe way Key members are chosen. In fact

X surprising that the percentage of really'" outstanding juniors who become rmem-

bers is as high as it is (around fifty perI cent) Unfortunately election to Beaver

Key has become some kind of 'in joke'mainly shared among a handful of frater-nities. Since The Beaver Key is a self-perpetuating organization, it takes littleeffort for these few houses to control the

bulk of the selection procedure each year.The Beaver Key currently has 33

members, over half (18) are membersof five fraternities; Beta Theta Pi, DeltaUpsilon, Delta Tau Delta, Phi GammaDelta, and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. 'Al-though these five houses are certainlyprominent n campus affairs, we find ithard to believe that representing lessthan eight per cent of the junior classthey contain over fifty per cent of theoutstanding members of the Class of '67.

Giveen the abovre concentration, andthe Key's limited membershp, it's notsurprising that only three dormitory res-idents are members of this year's organ-ization. No non-resident students and cer-tainly no coeds (perish the thought) aremembers either. Yet this organization issupposed to be the junior class honorary.

A good indication of the Key's pro-pensity to pass over really outstandingpeople can be gained by looking at therecords of last year's eight Individualwinners of the Compton Award, MIT'shighest prize for student contribution toextra-curricular .life. Of the eight, onlytwo had been Beaver Key members; hard-ly a good percentage for the Junior ClassHonorary.

The number of good juniors turned idown or not even considered by the Keyis open to opinion, but some obvious om-missions stand out. For instance: 1)George Piccagli, twice president of hisclass, outstanding activities record, poli-tician without peer; 2) Bob Howard, IFCInscomm representative, swim team man-ager, PRC, activities, 3) Joe Ferreira,East Campus Presideft, Inscomm, Nauti-cal Association President, varsity sailing,varsity squash; 4) Bob Ferrara, Presi- ,dent of the Social Service Committee,varsity basketball.

Some of the officers and members ofthe Beaver Key are presently trying toinstitute reforms in the time and method P

of choosing members. If the Key fails to Eadopt reforms, it's difficult to see how it 1can continue to justify its existence as ajunior class honorar'y. c

Thirty-one s t u d e n t s drawnmainly from the old and newInstitute Committees met for aweek-end conference on studentgovernment at Exeter, N e wHampshire last weekend. The top-ics discussed were recounted inthe last isse of The Tech. Allpresent expressed he opinion thatthe conference had been a veryuseful orientation for the new In-stitute Committee.

Thoughtless toolsro he Editor:

A frightening insensitivit tothe problems and tasks of nonaMIT membelrs of the communitycharacterizes, I fear, manythoughtless acts by an appreciablefraction of our student body. Ir-responsible actions by students atthe meeting of the CambridgeCity Council (Feburary 24) andat the minor fire in Bldg. 14(March 1) make me wonder howmuch we think before we jmiip.

Students laughing at and mock-ing the work of firemen or clear-ly enjoying and openly laughing atthe plea of a priest for the homesand neighborhood of his parisdoers can only speak badly for theMIT population and its sense ofresponsibility. Sarcastic referenceby a Thc Tech staff writer tothe people vwhose ,Ohmes arethreatened as forming a particu-larly weak backbone of the cityshows again, in my opinion, aremarkable imfleremnce to theworld aromul us.

Damage by fire an the risksof .fighting it, the loss dOf anelderly person's lifetime home,and similar evernts are amongthe least funny things I know.There is nothing trivial about theproblems associated with the In-ner Belt. I real'ize that manvstudents involved in the incidentsI lament priably cotribute their·ime and efforts to enstuctivelyaid in ccommuity affairs. But Ifeel compelled to post one pleafor a greater awareness of howsome "plel" undertakem dothe greatest damage to us andto 1MUT.

Elsie's interest

To the Editor:Last week in the March 11th

issue of The Tech it was halfseriously suggested that Elsie'sbe moved Harvard Square to theStudent Center grlle room. Muchto my surprise I discovered thatElsie's was very much seriousabout setting up a branch storehere at MIT.

The essefial qe that stillremains unanswered is, "Howmuch real dere is there in theMIT student body for a branchof Elsie's in the Student Center?"Perhaps suggestims (or lack ofof such) concerning this questionaddressed to Mr. Bishoff, Admin-istrative Assistnt to the VicePresident of Operations and Per-sonnel, Roam 4444; and PaavoPaave Pyykomnen, newly electedStudent Center Committee Chair-man, Fast Campus (Walcott 308),would be aprpriate.

WestgateTo the Editor:

In the February 8 issue TheTech it was reported, in the arti-cle on McCormick Hall expansion,that "this fall, the anticipatedoverflow of 40 girls will be housedin two floors of the married stu-dents' tower, Westgate West."

Several years gao, when I wasa senior at the Institue and plan-ning to enter graduate school thefollowing year, Westgate wasnearing completion. At that timeI approached Dean Fassett tofind out if there was any possi-bility that apartments there

Teacmight be available to groups ofsingle male students in the eventthat there were vacancies leftafter all married students de-siring to live there had been ac-comodated. The Dean replied (1)the expected demand for marriedstudents' housing was far in ex-cess of the capacity of Westgateand (2) the terms of the federalloan used to finance the construc-tion provided that only marriedstudents could occupy the apart-ments.

The great demand for mar-ried students' housing has be-come obvious, and I do not ques-tion the restriction of the apart-ments to married students onthis basis. I also do not care tocomment on the desirability ofaccomodating coeds in Westgatesince it makes absolutely no dif-ference to me. However, as onewho has had much difficulty find-ing decent housing in this areaI do wish to ask the terms oftit federal loan can be brokento accomodate single femalestudents when it could not bedone for groups of single malestudents, even in the event thatthere were vacancies. The mar-ried students who have beenwaiting patiently for a year ormore to get into Westgate mightalso want to question the legalityof the Institute's proposedfinagling.

By Jeff StokesOne of the unsung wonders of

MLT life is its irrepressible liter-ary magazine, Tangent. From outof the jungles of differential equa-tions and computer tape springsliterary talent enough to supplyTangent with material for three48-page issues a year. Contribu-ting to the Winter-Spring issue,which appeared a week ago Mon-day, were George Leslie, BonnieGerzog, Linda, Mammen, Nicholasj. Covatta, Jr., .Michael J. Tenir-ale, George Harlem, R. H. Dob-son, Jr., Henry Seltzer, Bob Hen-ninge, Kurt Franck, Josef K., JeffReynolds, Gerald Oberman, anda mysterious poet labelled M.J.VM.'68.

Artistic photographyJeff Reynolds and Joe Kurland

provided the pictures. Oddlyenough, Tangent is as much of aphotography magazine as it is aliterary, in fact if not by inten-tion. Just behind title page is aprize shot of a boy standing ankle-deep in a rivulet on a beach, withthe sun setting 'behind: a perfectillustration for the symbolic epiph-any of James Joyce's 'Portrait ofthe Artist as a Young Man.' Theprint on page 14 makes clever useof a weatherbeaten stump and acurious metallic object that looksfor all the world like a frog. Outof its nostrils climbs a tendril ofcigarette smoke. The back covercatches a similar wraith of smokein mid-air, after it has brokeninto wisps and whorls.

Elrotic themeSeveral other equally curious

photos are sprinkled among thepoems and stories of Tangent. Thedominant theme of this issueseems to be a kind of head-over-heels eulogy of love, and especial-ly of its object, woman. Thispaean ranges from the maudlinand romantic to the realistic andfrank. In this latter categoryGeorge Leslie's 'Clouds CannotHide Her Smile' stands out as thepiece de resistance of the issue.In a series of masterfully ironictransitions from the "U." inAmerica to a rainy street in an iEastern European city, the au-

Dramashop presentsdouble feature tonight

The MITrr Dramashcop will pre-sent its second set of one-ictplays for the term tonight andtomorrow night. The plays to bepresented are 'Play' by SamuelBeckett and 'A Resounding Tinkle'by N. F. Simpson.

The two one-act plays will bepresented at 8:30 p.m. in theKresge Little Theater. There willbe a discussion following the playsafter which coffee will be served.

On Monday, March 21 and Tues-day, March 22 at 7:30 p.m., theMIT Dramashop will hold tryoutsfor its spring major production.The play, 'A Country Scandal,'a three-act farcedrama by AntonChekhov will be staged by Drama-shop's director, Joseph D. ,Ever-ingham.

thor plays a painted, super-coolYankee college broad against asimple, straightforward, gentlegirl living behind the iron curtain.Made emotionally powerful. bythe lightness of its touch, Mr. Les-lie's story cries out for sim-plicity and honesty -in a societybent over backwards in sophisti-cation.

"And as she reached for thebuttons of her blouse, her glancefell to her lap, dark eyelashesshyly down, 'Forgive me,' shesaid, not really to me, 'it just goeson and on; each day is the same.Life is very long.''" n the veiledstrength of this epiphany is thestrength of the story.

There are a number of excel-lent pieces in Tangent this time,both humorous and serious. Oneof the more curious spoofs isKurt Franck's dream about thePope. It might be interesting tosit down with Freud's 'Die Treum-deutung' and figure out just whatis going on in that boy's mind.

Tangent, both in this issue andin the fall number, has shown aslight but noticeable improvementover last year, although wemissed the author's page thistime. We hope, now that Tangenthas escaped from its Walker Me-

morial dungeon, that this improve-ment will continue.

Italian dolls and French comedyBy Mona Dickson

'Bambole,' as the name im-plies, is a collection of dolls, eachwell-sculptured and appropriatelydressed. Verna Lisi plays the dollwith a little button you push tostart, but she doesn't have a but-ton to turn her off. Monica Vittiis the poor rag doll who sits withsad eyes wishing her husbanddead; but her stuffings aren'tsturdy enough for personal posi-tive action. Elke Sommer is thecarrier doll with her life care-fully, scientifically planned, untila finagle constant comes along.Then there is Gina Lollobrigida,

Another biggroup of the period was the FourSeasons, who had the number onesong for 11 of 14 weeks with'Sherry' and 'Big Girls Don't Cry.'They were the most successfulusers of the eunuch sound whichkeeps popping up in rock 'n' roll.The folk influence became verystrong in 1963, with Peter, Paul,and Mary the leaders.

Rock 'n' roll might have disap-peared completely if it hadn'tbeen for the Beatles. Bringingback the rhythm and blues styleof Chuck Berry and the EverlyBrothers, the Beatles hit Americain January, 1964, and became thebiggest sensation since Presley, atleast. Despite their long hair andunusual clothes, they were gener-ally accepted by parents becauseof the clean happy songs whichthey sang and their good humor.At first they flooded the market,at one time having numbers 1, 2,3, 5, 9, and 20 in the nation, and

Food for Thought i.. :.. ::..-.:...: i:.. /~;~'?./::, ]By William Judnick : ..:-: : .

Selecting a wine to go with a meal? Clearly, in doing so, youmeal is crucial, and yet few add a taste to your experience.people can do so with confidence. Are two tastes better than one?

Some principles of selecting,understanding, and evaluatingwine are presented below. Theyare my own; be forewarned thatonce you master the material be-low you may not be able to holdyour own conversing with a wine-snob, but you will be preparedto make sime surprisingly sophis-ticated decisions, and decreasethe probability of making an ex-pensive mistake.

TastinessFirst, let us define a useful

concept: "tastiness" means theintensity of the taste you experi-ence. At the lower end of thecontinuum we have fish, fowl;progressing upward, items suchas steak, filet mignon, Limburgercheese.

Wine can also be ranked alongsuch a scale.

Now, why have wine witl a

Not necessarily; the answer is afunction of tastiness.

If you taste nothing but wine,

its tastiness dominates, and thereis no point in ordering fine food;if the food is overpowering, thebeverage is superfluous.

The ideal compromise between

those extremes, matching thetastiness of food and wine; theycompete for your attention andthe result is a draw.

If the match is correct, as de-fined by your tastes, you willknow it. There will be no doubt:you will notice subtle qualitiesin the food you had -missed be-fore; as for the wine, it will tastebetter as the meal progresses.Further, their after-tastes will bea unified whole.

Some termsWhen you know some technical

terms, you will be in a good posi-tion to estimate where an un-familiar wine is on the tastinesscontinuum.

The next column will describesome as the various markingsfound on the wine taster's scale.

ocE The methods used by freshmeno choose their course majors

I has been the object of muchC study by SCEP. A questionnaire

< Distributed two years ago, re-vealed dissatisfaction on the part-

>. )f upperclassmen' concerning the< general knowledge of all courses

which they had as freshment 2hoosing their course majors.

We felt that this lack of per-spective, even though a fresh-

T man may be unaware of it,U makes proper course selectionu lifficult. And we agreed that

Lu freshmen, on the whole, shouldI have a more sufficient knowledge

af the teaching methods, the2ourse content, and the generalnature of not only their majors,but also of courses related totheir major programs.

Work begins with FACWe then began to work with

the Faculty Freshman AdvisoryCouncil in order to improve, insome way, the existing structureFor disseminating informationabout courses to freshmen. Inthis article, we want to stressthat freshmen should make great-zr use of the means made avail-able by the FAC for learningabout the MIT course and majorprograms.

In a few weeks, all freshmenwill receive the names of profes-sors and upperclassmen who havebeen selected in order to assistthem with problems concerningthe selection of a major course.[increased use should be madeAf this opportunity to learn the"unwritten" facts about a course.

Upperclassmen discussionEven if one has already de-

2ided upon a major, before en-tering the Institute or during the first semester, he still should dis-:'uss his field choice thoroughlywith a few upperclassmen. Forthe subtle facets of a particular2ourse, which many freshmen donot realize, can often be revealedby this personal contact withUpperclassmen who are majoringin that course.

In this way a freshman mayFind that his interest in a certainirea ¢'can often best be fosteredn .x majoring in another relatedou1rse. lhe can also better decide

if th teaching methods of aix-v(n ('ourse suit his tastes and personality. Some bright and

.hard working fellows have be-'ome discoliraged as students be-.ause they were not suited forhe particular teaching methods)f their (course major.

Open House SystemlAnother area, of more direcl

relevance to SCEP, is the CourseDpen House system. These meet-ings afford an excellent oppor-lunity for freshmen to learn about2ach field, the problems withwhich its professionals are con- :'erned, and its general course 2ontent at MIT. I

Also, one may talk with theseveral professors who attend

their departmental open houses.Thereby, a freshman may gainincreased perspective and insightinto this difficult and importanttask of course selection.

The Freshman Course SelectionSubcommittee of SCEP has at-tended and discussed these openhouses. We have distributed aqcuestionnaire to those who attend-?d each, and, using these data,wve developed a report concern-ing the prime elements of an ef-fective open house. This reporthas been circulated to all depart-ment offices.

Course PamphletsThere are many pamphlets con-

2erning each field available atthe respective course offices.Many freshmen considered thisliterature to be quite useful in2hoosing a course major.

From our study of course se-lection, we concluded that manyfine opportunities are availablefor freshmen to learn aboutcourses and major programs.

The Spirit of MIT athleticsBy Tom Thomas

The athletic achievements of the past year were spotlighted at

the T-club awards dinner Tuesday night. The outstanding achieve-

ments of five MIT. athletes were recognized with the awarding of the

straight-T's.

It is much to the credit of the T-club executive council that they

were able to spot and publicly acknowledge the spirit and determina-

tion of Brook Landis '67, Helge Bjaaland '67, Alex Wilson '67, Gene

Roberson, and Dave Schramm '67. However, the real rewards of

amateur athletics are inherent in its competitive nature. Every man

who competes in intercollegiate athletics anywhere in the eountry

has the opportunity to reap the rewards of amateur athletics.

Here at MIT this is especially true. Athletes at this school are

not rewarded by financial aid nor are their academic loads below par.

They sacrifice many times over just to compete intercollegiately:

they sacrifice time-wise; they sacrifice physically; they sacrifice

mentally. But the rewards are all the greater because of the sacri-

fices made.

Too often recognition is given to all too few. Any athlete at MIT

deserves the praise and admiration of the entire student body just

as -much as any politician or top student. Many times you and I

walk past a letter-winner without thinking anything about it.

These men who wear the "T" deserve your moral support off

the field as well as your tangible support on the field. Guest speaker

Nils "Swede" Nelson summed it up in his presentation when he said,

"The type of spirit shown by athletes in this country both on and off

the field typifies the spirit that made America great, the same spirit

which has earned respect throughout the world and has shone

through in two world wars."

Spring sports are just around the corner. Now is your chance as

a student or faculty member to support the MIT athletic system.

Both the varsity and the freshman sailing teams will hold a short

meeting at 5 pm Tuesday. at the sailing pavilion. Any undergraduate

interested in joining the team or assisting as a manager is urged

to attend. If any further information is desired, feel free to call man-

iger Dick Boulay at 566-4487.

awards, given for outstandi&achievement in sport

Leading to thepresentat i o n s,Rich made a re-quest for increas-ed publicity for Ithe A.A. and T-Club. He thenwent directly tothe awards.

This year, theHelge BiaalandStraight - T win- '67ners were Helge Bjaaland '6?,Gene Robertson, a grad student, [Alex Wilson '67, Dave Schrarmi'67 and Brook Landis '66.

Helge Bjaaland, a native ofOslo, Norway, is perhaps thegreatest skier in MIT istory. in.deed, coaches believe he is asgood as if not 'better than BentAasnaes '64, previously regardedas the best. Helge trained for ski. iing by getting in shape runningcross-comuntry in the fall. In hisfirst year running, he was fourthman on the team. In skiing, how.ever, he is definitely the best col. legiate in the east. During theregular season, he lost only once,and that defeat came at the handsof an Olympic skier. He thenqualified for the nationals in Boul. -der, Colorado, where he finished ia very respectable 14th.

Grad stuent -honoredThe second winner, Gene Rob.

ertson, is a firsty e a r graduatestudent from Au-burn. Gene dis-tinguished him- __

self in a veryunusual s po r t,weightlifting. Ina meet last Nov-ember, Gene won Brook La ndisthe Outstanding4 New England '66Lifter Award, set 4 meet records,4 New England AAU records and3 national AAU records. Genesquatted 735 pounds, ben--eh-pressed490 and dead-lifted 715 for a rec.ord powerlift of 1940 pounds.

Alex Wilson '67 was an obviouschoice for the ,Straight-T. He seta new scoring record this yearof 559 points compared to the oldrecord of 446. Alex sparked theteam to 18 victories, including thefirst win over Harvard in 22 years.

Dave Schramm '67 is the fourthrecipient of the award. Wrestlingin the unlimited class this year,Dave compiled an 11-0 record indual meets. He then went on towin three straight matches in theNew Englands to take the chain-pionship. He will no-w go on towrestle in the NCAA champion-ships at Ames, Imma, in the 191pound class.

For the final award, Rich passedthe mike to past T-COrb presidentBert Blewett. Bert explined howBrook Landis '66 went throughthe agony of wrestling with anincoDmpletely healed knee injury.'In spite o this, Landis had anexcellent season and took thirdplace in tei New Englands whenhe could barely walk.
