Dr. Galston, professor of biol- ogy at Yale University, received permission from Peking to visit China in 1971, and returned for several weeks in 1972, accompa- nied by his wife and daughter, and spent several weeks living and working on one of China's agricultural communes.

Also, he learned that theoretical physicists tend to do their most creative work at a younger age (by five years) than their col- leagues who are experimentalists. One of the greatest issues that the consumer faces in his deisre to purchase high-quality, fresh food is that of open dating. Every food item in every super- market (and there are over 10,000 items in the average store) is dated for freshness. Unfortunately, most dating car- ried on by most manufacturers is not for the consumer to deter- mine freshness but for the ind'ustry itself. Some of the items which we checked had codes which we were unable to deci- pher even with the de-coding infonnation we had at our disposal! Of the items we could "date," all but one was "fresh" now. However, the consumer could mistakenly keep a pack- aged product too long. If the date were obvious, both market employees and consumers could cooperate to keep stale, rancid, or partly deteriorated foods out of our kitchens.

As ASCIT president my maingoals would be:

1) To coordinate studentefforts in academjc reform withinfaculty committees, and to or­ganize lobbying efforts in aca­demic reform, within facultycommittees, and to organize lob­bying efforts by students whenthere are crucial faculty votes.Institute requirements need to bemade more flexible and ISPneeds to be expanded.

2) To expand coop housing tofit everybody who wants to jointhe coops.

3) To expand student controland employment in the book­store.

4) To pressure B&G and theadministration to provide for­warning and explanation of in­creases in room and boardcontract, miscellaneous fees onterm bills, and if possible, eventuition.

5) To expand informal anddrop in social even ts whilesteering away from costly andmore organized events. (ASeITdoesn't have enough money left.)

6) To improve ASCIT movies.They bring in a lot of money.They should be worth it.

7) To increase coordinationbetween ASCIT and the studenthouses.

I am running for the office ofpresident out of frustration.Frustration and desire to see thejob done well. The presidentcannot relax and assume thatASCIT will run itself. It is hisjob to see that the wishes of thestudents are exercised in theactions of the BOD. This has notalways been done in the past.Decisions that are made withoutconsulting the student body canlead to expensive ($3000) mis­takes. The preSident must alsoride herd on those with responsi­bility or this can lead to greatembarrassment (BIG T). He isalso ultimately responsibible forthe mundane dealings of theBOD (the treasurer, the budget,rubber checks, fair apportion­ment of 17 Kbucks, etc.) Hemust be experienced in dealingwith Caltech's administration ona reasonable, productive level. Healso should be familiar with ourown bylaws, to stay within theirbounds or be responsive to thestudents' desires to have themchanged.

I have served as an officer inthe Radio Club, the studentshop, and in other on campusgroups. I am presently chairmanof the ASCIT Executive Commit­tee. The Excomm has had regularmeetings for the first time inseveral years while J. have beenchairman. I have played an activerole on this campus since myfrosh year, and have not yetbeen discouraged. My ability,experience, and enthusiasm be­long on the BOD.

I believe the major responsibil­ities of the Board of Directorsare divided between Academicand Social Affairs. As ASClTPresident, I believe I could makeeffective contributions in both ofthese areas.

My experience on theUndergraduate Academic Stand­ards and Honors Committee hasshown me that student proposalscan be successful if presented tothe appropriate committee and inthe proper way. This was cer­tainly the case on the drop dayproposal with which I wasinvolved. Through more effectiveuse of student members onfaculty committees, I believe thatthe students of Caltech can havea greater impact on our environ­ment. This includes such propos­als as: changing grading schemes,changing add day and bringingBeckman scheduling more in linewith student interests.

As a former house socialchairman, I will not pretend tohave all the answers because I amaware of the many problems inthis area. However, I do believethat if we coordinate our effortswe can avoid some of the pastdifficulties.

Since this is necessarily brief,I welcome any questions ofsuggestions you might have.

The outlook for the 1973book is "grim, to state itconservatively," according toNeches. Without an official editor,business manager, or staff, the1973 book may simply notappear.

As a few of you might havebothered to notice, apathy atTech is at its usual all-time/elec­tion-time high. The duties ofsecretary are many and variedand include such creative oppor­tunities as the weekly minutes("We voted in favor of what??")and the answering of letters thatbegin "Dear Mr. Ascit, You mayalready be a lucky winner ... "Still, one of his primary func­tions is to increase the represen·tation of ASCIT members on theBOD. Now, while I have nothingagainst apathists (I'm an apathicfellow myself when driven to it),I do however feel that studentparticipation in ASCIT should beslightly encouraged. Along theselines, I would like to make clearthat my door - and palm -- willalways be open; if anyone feelsstrongly (or weakly or at all)about any ma tter that the BODis considering or should consider,I will be available for discussion,and I can usually be bribed aseasily and inexpensively as acoke.

Key To Massey's

ASCIT ProgramIn running for ASCIT y.p I

am seeking an office that de­mands competence in more thanone direction. The title for theoffice implies, of course, that theholder is an ASCIT officer and amember of the BOD. My partici­pation in house government andin student-faculty relations has, Ibelieve, prepared me for theadministrative demands for apost on the BOD.

The other half of the ASCITy·p's job is the BOC chairman­ship. The person who fills thisdelicate (and trying) positionassumes, more than any other,the responssibility of protectingthe Caltech community by insur­ing the workability and relevanceof the Honor System. Mymembership on the BOC sincemy freshman year, both as houserep and as secretary, has, in myopinion, provided me with theexperience that will allow me tofunction, from my first day inoffice, as an effective BOCchairman.

The following is a briefsummary of the financial reportgiven at Tudsday's BOD meeting:

Tangible assets are $10,743.79while outstanding liabilities are$12,601.20 including $8000.00for the Big T's. In other words,if ASCIT had to pay all of itsliabilities and liquidate all of itsreserves today, it would be in thehole by $1,857.41.

In spite of this grim news,ASCIT is in much better shapethat it was three weeks ago whenit looked like it was in the holeby more than $7,000.00.

When the last ASClT treasurertook a leave of absence inDecember, I was appointed act­ing treasurer to straighten outthe books. What I found was apile of bills, very little cash inthe bank, and no books at all.In the middle of the pile was anote from the treasurer saying hewas sorry he made such a messand sincerely hoped the bookscould be salvaged. He said he hadno intentions of wrecking theASClT books - he just did notknow how to handle them andbefore he knew what washappening, the books were amess.

Over Christmas vacation, Ireconstructed the books fromcancelled checks and minutesfrom BOD meetings. I spent overone hundred hours on the booksand am still finding transactionsthat should be included.

At this time, the books forthe past year are as straight as Ibelieve possible.

An ASCIT treasurer cannotafford to be lax in his duties. Nomatter how honest he may be,the books will not keep them­selves. I am very aware of theapathy that pervades the studentbody. Yet, I have always thoughtthat if I take the responsibilityfor something I will do a goodjob.

I believe I am qualified to betreasurer - I have done the jobfor the past month and amwilling to do the job for the nextyear.

This past year ASClT ran intosome trouble through the failureof the treasurer to fulfill his du­ties. The fault does not entirelylie with him, as closer super­vision would have alleviated theproblem somewhat. However suchsupervision adds an extra burdento each of the other BOD mem­bers above and beyond their owndaily responsibilities. In short, itwould be nice to have a compe­tent treasurer. During the shorttime since he has taken over thebooks, Dave Peisner has put inmany hours to salvage the accum­ulated wreckage; thanks to histime and effort, financial disasterhas been averted. I think he hasthus shown himself to be a goodchoice for the office of treasurer.

In an atmosphere in whichacademic pursuits are as stronglyemphasized as they are atCaltech, a student holding theoffice of Director for AcademicAffairs should have a wide rangeof influence. As a candidate forthis office I would like to state afew of the problems which I willattempt to solve through theexertion of this influence if I amelected.

One major problem which Iwould attempt to deal with isthe present design of Physics 2.Although the two track systemnow in effect is an improvementover its single track predecessor,more changes are needed. Onepossible substitute for the pres­ent system would be two com­pletely separate courses taughton the same levels as the nowexisting Tracks A and B. Thissolution would be a major steptowards removing the inequitypresently created by giving stu­dents equivalent credit for ob­taining similar grades in Tracks Aand B.

A second problem which Ithink deserves attention is thelack of a basic biology curricu­lum within Institute requiredcourses. Within the past severalyears, the acadentic interests ofstudents entering Tech havebecome more and more diverse.The large increase in the numberof undergraduates entering theBiology option which has oc­curred within recent years is areflection of an important shiftin the acadentic interests ofTechers. In recognition of thisshift of in terests, I feel thatInstitute course requirementsshould be altered to ensure thatbiological sciences ar~ properlyrepresented within the frame­work of the general sciencebackground obtained by Techers.

By the virtue of our verypresence here at Tech, all of ushave a strong interest in aca­dentic affairs. If elected to thepost of Director for AcadenticAffairs, I will try my utmost torepresent these interests well andwill work toward the creation atTech of an environment in whichthe learning process may operateantidst as little triviality aspossible. I would very muchappreciate your vote for me,Richard Gruner, for the office ofDirector of Acadentic Affairs.

from deepening themselves in thearts is a tragedy which quicklyneeds amending. This is mydream: that students ntight re­ceive humanities credit for classesprivided in the pure arts, so thatthere will be time for the furtherdeepening of themselves. Thereare other dreams I have concern­ing the academic areas at Caltech- an increase in the availabilityof the Independent Studies Pro­gram is one, for example. I knowthere are others with gooddreams of their own - I wouldlike very much to help explorethem next year as Director ofAcadentic Affairs.

Well, the days of ASCITelections are drawing nearer andthose of us running for officehave the dubious task of inform­ing the rest of Tech about wherewe stand on whatever the issuesmight be. Essentially what I hopeto do as Director of Student Lifeit to produce a somewhat bettersocial program than that whichhas existed here at Tech in recentyears. I urge you to vote for theby-laws change below whichmakes the office of Director ofStudent Life equivalent to theChairmanship of ESC (ExecutiveSocial Committee) which thenempowers the person in thisoffice to make a significantimpact on the social life ofTechers. I feel that I amqualified for the position byvirtue of my genuine interest inexpanding all of our socialactivities and my desire to seethe apathy that pervades Techlessen. In any event, let us hopethat whatever the election out·come, Techers will be givenincreasing opportunity to providethemselves with a social programand further that they will atakeadvantage of those opportunities.

ful in developing campus lifethan campus-wide events. AsASCIT Social Chairman, I havetried to stimulate house socialprograms by funding worthyevents through the ESC andsponsoring events such as thefence painting, which was gearedtowards house participation.ASCIT can still contribute tosuch programs by cooperationbetween the IHC and ESC,bringing ideas and money to­gether.

One way of meeting this goalis in the works already: theASCIT bus proposal. I willcontinue the efforts of thepresent BOD to obtain a van forthe purpose of bringing girlsfrom other schools to Tech forboth house and campus-widesocial events, and running aregularly scheduled trip betweenhere and the Claremont Colleges.The money has already beenobtained, but work is still neededin things like insurance andestablishing rules to maintain thebus in working condition forseveral years.

Further work is also neededfon plans for making Winnett amore interesting place for stu­dents to spend their time. Thejuke box was a step in the righ tdirection, but other changes needto be done. The TGIF's (Fridaybeer blasts) might be returned ifthere is interest, and ASCIT isopen to other suggestions.

I feel the IHC is the bestplace for carrying on with theseideas. If you agree, I'd appreciateyour vote to return me to theBOD.

Lori Lieberman is the thirdact on the bill, and destined tobe a hit. Capitol has released analbum of her music already, andthe local radio stations arepicking up on one of the songs,entitled "Killing Me Softly."Lori's voice is somewhat like across between the better parts ofCher and Linda Ronstadt. Heronly weaknesses seem to be abackup group that seems to tryand compete with her for volumeat times, and a sort of tensenesson stage that makes her reparteesound rehearsed. Her music morethan makes up for these prob.·lems, though, and she has alovely voice. I hope the radiostations keep picking up on hermusic. -Nick Smith

Ever since the onset ofVictorianism, Shakespeare's'coarser' puns and statementshave been, not suppressed, butworse, ignored. It's about timethe real Shakespeare was revivedfor our full appreciation!

Perhaps we should add an­other to the already semi-infinitelist of LIB movements and callfor "Shakespeare's Lib". Thisreviewer certainly hopes thatactors and performances likethese return soon and often toCaltech.

It is unfortu­nate that he records for such oddlabels (such as STRIDER, notone of the biggies), since hismusic is very listenable recordedas well as in person.

Thursday, January 25, 1973

With him were the infamous RikSmoody, Ed O'Rourke, Art Moore,Gary Wakai, Dennis Keith, ThomasPressburger, Jeff Condit, and pos­sibly others. Slanderous remarksabout the efficiency of the Techstaff (?) were heard vibratingthrough the plate glass of whichthe windows consist. This was toomuch for hard-at-work editorGavin Claypool to take. He cir­cled around to the northeast cor­ner of Winnett followed by ahorde (2) of staffers. With criesof "Get 'em!" I foolishly tried totackle Smoody as Claypool tookon O'Rourke and Sweeney grabbedahold of Wakai.

The Tech was routed. Foolish­ly trusting the Page Dudes (werethey not from the same house asPete Beckman and myself?) we al­lowed them to come into theoffice for a visit. In innocent funClaypool, Beckman, and I at­tempted to trash the Okie(O'Rourke) as Bad-Hearted Busi­ness Manager Marv Mandelbaumfrowned in amusement. It was tono avail. As we reached the trashingpoint we discovered that Smoodyhad used the diversion to carryout his insidious plot. The barrelwas on fire! We couldn't riskdropping the Okie in-there wasalready too much fly ash aroundthe room.

Mandelbaum put out the firewith Fester Fluid, and the vaga­bonds headed off laughing towardthe east, ready to wreak wetnessupon Scott Denbina.

Sta~e IIThey came back! Storming the

outside door, they smashedthrough a desparate defense byClaypool. Inside the office,the remaining fivesome (sportseditor Kieckhefer was here bythat time) attempted to barricadethe door. Releasing our hold,BHBM Mandelbaum attacked theattackers with three cans offixer (BLECHH). Again to no avail,the inhuman hordes (at leasttwenty-three this time) came backin. Smoody created a LloydDragon as cries of "Trash theOkie" sprang up again. Theysauntered off promising anotherattack. (We haven't seen so manypeople in the Tech office in years.)

TECH OFFICEFIREBOMBED!

An Eye-Witness Accountby Dennis Mallonee

The first bonfire of the seasonwas held last night in the officeof The California Tech as a rovingband of vagabonds took us up onour early-season offer to firebombthe Tech.

The incident began as Techtrolls innocently pursued their fa­vorite pasttime of getting the Techtogether.

Stage I"Suddenly," said a Dial-a-Fes­

terer, Steve Sweeney, "I heard arapping, sort of tapping, upon theoffice window." It turned out tobe Jim Kaye, evil roommate ofpaster-upper, Dennis Mallonee.

and members of the Army,which in China performs iTIanypublic nonmilitary functions andis a highly coveted career.Education in China is mandatoryand free for elementary andsecondary levels, but only 20 to40 percent of the students get togo on to the last few years ofpre-university school. After theseyears, all students must go workfor three years in some activity.Entrance into universities inChina is based upon the recom­mendation made by the youngperson's work team, dependingto a great extent on on attitude,willingness to work, and back­ground in Marxism-Leninism, andto a lesser degree than in theWest on academic achievements.At this time there is virtuallynothing but practical training inChinese universities: mechanicalengineering, agricultural biology,and the like. Graduates are moreor less expected to return totheir previous organizations andFJt their knowledge at the use oftheir peers, although all individu­als have some original say overwhat they will be working at intheir lives. It is uncommon tochange jobs or working locations.

Yellow JournalismContrary to general American

belief, it appears that mostChinese are happy and produc­tive in their current roles. Dr.Galston found all the Chinesepeople to be cheerful andfriendly toward him, and obvi­ously has come away from hisexperience with considerable re­spect fro the Chinese people.Perhaps his sharing of thisexperience has helped a little tobreak down the walls of ignor­ance between the Chinese andthe American people.

Certain lati­tude is also allowed for workersto pursue their own privateactivities; one old man had asmall tobacco patch of his ownon the little plot of landallocated to each worker for hisprivate use.

Medical services are providedfree from the members of thecommune. The commune has acentral hospital where full medi­cal doctors are to be found; thebrigades and work teams havesmaller medical centers wheremore of the work is done byparamedical staff, the so-called'barefoot doctors', and othertrained people. Acupuncturetreatments are common. Somemedical people are trained inWestern ways, and some bytraditional Chinese methods; fre­quen tly both types will diagnoseon patients, and agree amongthemselves which methods touse.

China has very little centralizedgovernmental bureaucracy, as isfound in the United States. Muchof the decision-making power isvested in the RevolutionaryCommittees of the factories,communes, universities, andother orgariizaHons, although ofcourse there is a hierarchy ofCommittees above the local ones.In general the Committees arecomprised of Communist partycadremen, representatives of the'workers' (Iarborers in the agri­cultural communes, students andprofessors in the universities),

Oxy swimmers won everyevent they entered, but stillcomplained about the cold Pasa­dena weather. (It was better inEagle Rock?) Tech's only victorywas in the. 400-yard freestylerelay, when Steve Bitondo, ClydeScandrett, Dave Clark, and BobMiller defeated everyone in sight.

Miller ScoresMiller was Tech's leading

scorer, with second places in the50- and 100-yard free styles inaddition to anchoring the relayteam. Jim Rowson also capturedtwo seconds, in the 1- and3-meter diving.

Tom Stoughton was the onlyother Techer to receive a secondplace, in the 200-yard breast­stroke. He also received a third inthe 200-yard individual medley.

Lots of ThirdsBob Kieckhefer received two

thirds in the distance freestyleevents. Bitondo, Ron Horn,Wilson Ho, and Max Kayrounded out the scoring with onethird place apiece.

Tomorrow afternoon theswimmers will go to Claremontfor another dunking. Next Wed­nesday they will try to duplicatelast year's upset victory over UCRiverside in a home meet startingat 4:00.

by Harold P. SchnurrdLook, God, you didn't sink

the ark. David's sling didn'tbreak. McGovern didn't win. Butit looks like you've been slippinglately.

I didn't complain when ourheavyweights evaporated. Orwhen our 190 lost his eligibility.But this is going too far, don'tyou think?

No, not Folmer. Frasier al­ways has blocked punches to hischin with his eyes. But thePomona meet. That was just toomuch.

They had good lower weights.We didn't expect to win at 118or 126. We didn't expect to pickup many points with 158pounders wrestling guys thatweighed 177 and 270. But westill could have won. They hadfish at the five middle weights,and we had Stone, Walker,Gooding, Zieve, and Bickford.

First round in Stone's match,he went down to the mat.Routine. Seen the move ahundred times. Why did he haveto sprain his neck? That's aforfeit: they get ten where wewould have had at least three.Nine points down the drain.

It didn't even help whenWalker, Bickford, and Goodinggot pins, and Zieve won. We'dalready given up 14, and theyhad 12 more coming. 26-21.

Now we're basically goodpeople: kind, humble - we evenlet the basketball players use ourgym! How about it? Is it toomuch to ask for a full team onthe mat?
