Mr. Helstein is a recognizednational authority on the subjectof automation and its impact onthe labor force and the nationaleconomy. He is regularly called.upon to speak at leading aca­demic institutions, at govern­mental and trade union con·ferences, and on national tele­vision documentaries.

The labor movement in Amer­ica today, Helstein continued,cannot be truly called a move­ment. For in the last few decadesthe Labor union has become in­stitutionalized and has becomeas devotee of the status quo. Inthis step, Labor has deserted itstraditional role.UPWA A Leader

He spoke with pride, however,of the fact that the United Pack­inghouse Workers have fromtheir very beginning been in­timately dedicated to the elimi­nation of discrimination. In allcontracts written by the UPWAthere is a clause which express­ly forbids discrimination. Andwhile other unions have haddifficulty in the South, he pointedto the UPWA's success in thatregion.

For this stand, the UPWA hassuffered losses in membership,social acceptance, and has beenbranded by many names, includ­ing Communist. But, he said,this policy has developed withinhis union an articulate Negrovoice.Challenge In The South

"Discrimination is both divi­sive and dangerous to the Labormovement and is irreconcilablewith the basic tenets of union­ism," said Ralph L. Helstein inhis speech yesterday in DabneyLounge. Mr. Helstein is theYMCA's first guest this year inits Leaders of America series andwas very well received in hisinitial address.,

Before a disappointingly smallcrOWd, Helstein spoke on therole of "Labor in the Race Strug­gle." He began by stating thathe felt that Labor has not con­cerned itself SUfficiently withrace problems.A submerged Nation

The race problem in Americatoday, he said, may be likenedto "an underdeveloped nationwithin a nation," one anxiousto throw off its colonial yoke andassert its independence. At thevery same time, he continued,another revolutionary move­ment, that of automation, iseliminating vast numbers of jobswithout creating, as it promised,new positions to replace the old.Civil rights desires "cannot befulfilled unless jobs are avail­able."Jobs Are Needed

And ifall these topics fail to enrich thesusceptible high school studentand convince him that Caltechis truly the school of his dreams,it is reputed that the lecture"Lettuce Points" will be givenby Saga.

John Rousselot, District Gov­ernor of the John Birch Society,spoke to a packed crowd at Dab­ney Lounge, November 27, onthe aims and principles of theSociety. Opening the meetingwith a dramatic silent momentof prayer for the late PresidentKennedy, Rousselot read a state­ment by Robert Welch, NationalDirector of the Society, deplor­ing the event and linking it tothe Communist menace.

Rousselot was interrupted nu­merous times during this state­ment and during his speech. Thetalk outlined the ideas and prin­ciples of the society, which in­cluded: waking the Americanpeople to the Communist men­ace, and generally instilling theprinciples of Americanism inthis nation. He then stated thatthe immediate aims of the so­ciety had among them both theopposing of speakers who wereactually in but not identifiedwith various organizations, andthe furnishing of speakers whowere "strong Americanists."

Editorials

WelcomelThis Saturday is Student's Day and it is traditional for

the editors of the Tech to write a short editorial welcoming thevisiting high school students and reminding them that they areat a school that is in the frontiers of research in almost allscientific fields.

This is indeed true. As an incidental fact, Cal tech andMIT receive so much government R&D contract money (sec­ond to the University of California) that they have been criti­cized in Congress. But then Congress has often been criticiizedat Tech.

Today, the visiting high school students will see some ofwhat the government's money has been spent on.

Today, however, is not the end for all of the visiting stu­dents. A good many are probably thinking of Cal tech fortheir College education. For those students it would be bestto get more than just "a little glimpse of what a center ofeducation and research looks like./1

Despite the flashing exterior of exhibits and the emphasison research, Cal tech is still primarily an educational institution.It is hard to get a clear idea of the learning and courses herefrom the lectures presented, but they will give you some idea.

But perhaps the most important thing to learn about isstudent life. It is quite easy to get a good idea of what it islike to live at Caltech. The most important part of this islearning about the Student House, that peculiarly Caltech insti­tution that is far more than a dormitory but not quite a frater­nity. The Houses playa major part in the lives of Techmen,and are pretty interesting places to visit. Take a few minutes,then grab a Techman and have him show you around.

While you're at it you can ask him about the opportunitiesfor learning and recreation outside of science. The range ofextra-curriculars, sports, and special activities are extra-ordin­arily large. It would be best to try and grab a junior or senior,and if you can't get anyone, try your guide.

Welcome, and enjoy your day.

learning to be an exciting ex­periment if we make no attemptto be actively involved? How dowe expect to find any value atc'altech if we approach our mainactivities passively? To mostCaltech students the academicsegment of Caltech is not excit­ing. But the remedy lies in stu­dent self-motivation and studentinvolvement. At Caltech theweakest link in the bond be­tween teacher and student is theCaltech undergraduate's com­placence and lack of initiativeto make his academic life atCaltech exciting.

is a geographic corner of thesand and cypress area of theMonterey PeninSUla. Asilomaris also the name of a YMCA­YWCA Conference (described inoutline in last week's Tech), tobe held from December 27 toJanuary 1. As a conference, Asi­lomar stands for diversity - toraise the questions of meaningin the midst of academic life; todiscuss the "meanings" found inmodern pluralistic society; tocause education to be a personalgrowth of minds; to create asense of world responsibility; toexplore the nature of the vari­ous complexities that make upthe "self"; and to delve into themoral responsibilities and con­cerns of students in presenttimes.

Asilomar offers these thingsin ~eminars, fireside chats, re­creation on the beach, and inguided meditation and reflectionin tJhe response periods. Thereis this and more.

appropriate shorthand, however.Another interesting idea, incor­porated into this book, is some­thing called a guitar TAB. Here,instead of writing music, sixlines representing the stringsof the guitar are used with ap­propriate symbols for strums,frets, etcetera.

This book is the first timeI've ever seen the songs of theseperformers down in print and,for the most part, it is the firsttime I've ever seen any of thesongs. I tried several of themand wasn't able to make themsound very good, even with thehints. I think that with record­ings of the songs to listen to,while trying to plunk them out,one could do a pretty good job.In all the book is pretty good,with several good ideas, butsomewhat off beat in selection.Anyone in tJhe market for a booklike this would do well to lookat it, but with a critical eye.

Editors:I would like to comment on

Professor Leighton's letter of lastweek. I have no way of directlyevaluating Professor Leighton'sstatements about Fey n manPhysics since I was not involvedin the course. However, in hislast two paragraphs ProfessorLeighton has lucidly stated thesingle most important failurein the academic sector of Cal­tech life: "... understanding isneeded on both sides. A teacherhas a morale problem too. Heneeds interest and encourage­ment from his students to dohis best."

A large majority of Caltechclasses are characterized by mon­ologue. This monologue is sym­tomatic of the fact that moststudents are not personally in­volved in the excitement oflearning. The responsibility forthis classroom monologue canbe placed largely upon the stu­dents. I can remember a· fresh­man English class when Profes­sor Langston said he was tiredof talking and would not sayanother word until someone elsemade a comment about whateverwe were studying. We musthave waited five minutes insilence.

Too often the Caltech studentwaits for the course or the teach­er to arouse his interest, andmakes no attempt to do thishimself. How can we expect

As an extra special, superdooper treat this week we havea genuine book review, of a folksong book, that is. The title is"Young Folk" in large whitegothic letters and "song book"in little black ones; it has anattractive, mostly yellow andorange cover, and sells for $2.95;it's published by Simon and Shu­ster, as can be easily ascertainedby looking at the first page; it'sblank except for the little manwho's striding along scratchinghis stomach.Hyper Ethnicism

This book's reason for beingis to bring the songs (a fewselected ones at least) of somehyper-ethnic folk singers - JoanBaez, Bob Dylan, Jack Elliot,the Greenbriar Boys, the NewLost City Ramblers, and PeggySeeger - to the struggling pub­lic.

Having seen several of these'performers I wondered just howthey would go about it, and Iwas pleased to see that somereal honest effort had gone intothe preparation. Usually songbooks like this, such as themany, many put out on the King­ston Trio, ignore the fact thatmost amateur folk song singersaccompany themselves on a gui­tar and show only piano accom­panyment, with chords occasion­ally written in. However, thewriters of "Young Folk SongBook," while not going as far asI'd like to see, have tried to givea good idea of how the pros usetheir instruments.De Capo

For one thing they admit theexistence of the capo, and whena song calls for its use, the ac­tual chords that are beingplayed, along with the way itwould be played with the capoin the designated position, areboth written. Sample directionswould be: 1) Capo on 3rd fret,2) actual chord C, 3) played asan A. All these are given in

The subject of man'sweaknesses is certainly a legiti­mate subject, especially whenthey're taken one at time; Deathof a Salesman is an excellentplay. What is the difference?Miller's hero is a man with veryfamiliar, very simple, humanweakness; the character has uni­versality. Albee's play is a cata­log of loathsome clinical abnor­malities. In Miller's play WillyLoman's weakness is made thecause of a touching personaltragedy; in Albee's the entiretime is taken up by simply let­ting us know what the troublesare.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?Ever since I saw The Zoo Sto­

ry a couple of years ago I havebeen of the opinion that EdwardAlbee is the most promisingplaywright now writing in En­glish. Many people have thoughtthe same, and Who's Afraid ofVirginia Woolf has been eager­ly acclaimed in New York, bothby the critics and at box office.Now that the road company isat the Biltmore Theater we havea chance to see for ourselveshow Mr. Albee has developed.Perhaps it is just a case of hav­ing been led to expect too much,but I came away thinking thatAlbee might be just of our ageafter all, and not for all time.The Plot

Who's Afraid is, in form atleast, an old-fashioned "straight"drama. Four screwed-up people- a middle-aged history profes­sor, his wife (daughter of thecollege president), a young biol­ogy professor, and his mousywife - get together in a room,drink a lot, and bare their souls.They have lots of problems, andAlbee sort of brings them out,one after another, sometimeshintingly, sometimes with whatthe ad-writers might call "daringfrankness." This is the kind ofplay where you're expected tocome out arguing about whetherNick is impotent or Honey hasbirth fears or George has anOedipus complex. It might bedescribed as the same kind ofpersonality freak show thatstarted to line Tennessee Wil­liams' pockets about the time hediscovered money.

Well, Albee hasn't been writ­ing long, and the tricks of put­ting together a coherent playhe'll probably learn. So far hiswit is not profound, but he'llnever lack for entertainmentvalue. What worries me, as Isaid, is his choice of subjectmatter.

The time has come to think of Christmas shopping, for theYuletide will be upon us quicker than you can say Jack Robin­son. (Have you ever wondered, incidentally, about the originof this interesting phrase "Quicker than you can say JackRobinson"? Well sir, the original saying was French-"P1U8vite que de dire J cu:ques Robespierre." Jack Robinson is, as every­one knows, an Anglicization of Jacques Robespierre who was,as everyone knows, the famous figure from the French Revolu­tion who, as everyone knows, got murdered in his bath byDanton, Murat, Caligula, and Ai Capone.

(The reason people started saying "Quicker than you cansay Jacques Robespierre"-or Jack Robinson, as he is called inEnglish-speaking countries like England, the U.S., and Cleve­land-is quite an interesting little story. It seems that Robes­pierre's wife, Georges Sand, got word of the plot to murderher husband in his bath. All she had to do to save his life wascall his name and warn him. But, alas, quicker than she couldsay Jacques Robespierre, she received a telegram from her oldfriend Frederic Chopin who was down in Majorca setting lyrics

(Well sir, off to Majorca went Georges, but before she left,she told her little daughter Walter that some bad men werecoming to murder Daddy in his bath. She instructed Walterto shout Robespierre's name the moment the bad men arrived.But Walter, alas, had been sea-bathing that morning on theRiviera, and she had come home with a big bag of salt watertaffy, and when the bad men arrived to murder Robespierre,Walter, alas, was chewing a wad of taffy and could not get hermouth unstuck in time to shout a warning. Robespierre, alas,was murdered quicker than you could say Jacques Robespierre-or Jack Robinson, as he is called in English-speaking countries.

(There is, I am pleased to report, one small note of cheerin this grisly tale. When Georges Sand got to Majorca, she didsucceed in helping Chopin find a rhyme for "Warsaw" as every­one knows who has heard those haunting lyrics:

True. All true. But all the same, Marlboros are unusual be­cause every time you try one, it's like the first time.

In Norstad's opinion theresponsibility for the commondefense must be a collective one.The success of the organizationis evidenced by the fact that noworld war has erupted since itsconception shortly after the sec­ond world war.

NMS C SelectsDuBridge AsNew Director

President Lee A. DuBridge waselected to the Board of Directorsof the National Merit Scholar­ship Corporation. His electionwas announced November 20 byHermon Dunlap Smith, chair­man of the board of the corpora­tion.

The National Merit Scholar­shiJp Corporation is a nonprofitcorporation established in 1955through grants from the FordFoundation and the CarnegieCorporation of New York. It con­ducts the nation's largest in­dependently supported scholar­ship program.

President DuBridge has beenPresident of Caltech since 1946'before that he served at th~University of Rochester. Dr. Du­Bridge's appointment was namedwith several others to fill vacan­cies that resulted from expiredterms.

About 1,500 Merit Scholarshipsare awarded annually in a na­tionwide competition conductedthrough the high schools. Theawards are financed by the FordFoundation and 175 sponsoringbusiness corporations, founda­tions, colleges, unions, profes­sional associations, trusts, andindividuals. Caltech students holdthe highest proportion of MeritScholarships of any school inthe United States. Approximately10% of the student body havebeen awarded these scholar­ships.

Rensselaer has also instituteda unique idea in the frosh phys­ics lecture. Each student is givena switch to indicate whether theinstructor is going too fast ortoo slow, and the switch operateslights on a panel in front of theinstructor. That might not be abad idea for Tech's new 'physicscourses, providing some provi­sion is made for the glare orig­inating from an extra bank oflights.Dial 9 for Oxy

MIT too, is showing originality, in tampering with the phonesystem. Some students havegone so far as to actually makelong distance calls on lines be­longing to a local radar instal­lation and some other camp fires.This is truly a shocker, but MITTech readers were assured thatjustice is being done as "two orthree students are expelled eachyear for abuses of the phonesystem."

One of the newest fields ofstudy on campus is planetaryscience. Roughly, planetary sci·ence does for other bodiesaround us what straight geologydoes for the earth, but Dr. Sharpadmits that the field is "kindof impinging on planetary astro­nomy." Despite the failure oftwo Ranger spacecraft (that car­ried seismographs from Tech)to land on the near side of themoon, the effort to effect such alanding is still under way. Aseismograph would give aboutthe biggest yield of importantinformation of any instrumentthat could be landed; moon­quakes and meteoritic impactswould give cIues to the interiorof the moon by the shock wavesthey produce that are picked upby the seismograph.

The tunnel has resolved con­figuration problems for morethan 600 types of aircraft formore than 40 American andforeign companies, and for sixgovernmental agencies. Such keyU.S. World War II aircraft asthe P-36, P-38, P-40, and P-51pursuit planes, the B-17, B·19,B-24, B-25, and B-29 bombers andthe PBY reconnaissance amphi­bious planes all were aerodyna­mically groomed in the tunnel.Oh, Really?

The tunnel was designed inthe mid-1920's by Clark B. Milli­kan and A. L.

In that putrid rotting bog ofCaltech, these men alone standabove the wallowing mire toprovide the impetus to those af­fairs that make Caltech what itis. These men stand far abovetheir fellows, and their diligentworks are felt far beyond theconfines of the noble JuniorClass. Their efforts stretch farinto the multitudinous fields ofstudent body activities, athletics,Church, Mother and Home. Andit must be admitted that allthese would fail without theirardent, nay unceasing, support.

The Beavers werepretty much of a mess after thegame, which produced morebusiness for the Health Centerthan any three others. The Bea­vers weren't docile by anymeans, but the already-lengthyinjury list and the usual sizediscrepancy added up to a solidwalloping.

Tech defense had its brilliantmoments, as a CHM drive washalted on the CIT 12, but theoverall effect was not exactlydevastating as CHM rushed for264 yds. to CIT's 161. Pass be­fense left a lot to be desired ­CHlVI passed for 212 yds, com­pleting 7 of 13, while CIT com­pleted 2 of 9 for -4 yds and hadthree intercepted, one going for25 yards and a TD.

The CIT offense could not getrolling and could not sustain adrive. Much of Tech's yardagecame on a 55-yard breakawayby Dinius, who led CIT rushers,with 65 yds. in 6 carries.. Nobodyelse could get any running room.Injuries Costly

They continuedto trail closely during most ofthe second period, tying thescore or taking a one-point leadon several occasions, and withone minute remaining theyfound themselves two pointsbehind. Forced to press the stall­ling Upland five, the Techmenlost more ground until the finalmargin became eight points.

High-point man with 19 mark­ers was Caltech's Dick Burgess,who also led the team on theboards by snatching 15 rebounds.Joe Weis and Gary Dahlmaneach scored 13 points, and Vol­ker Vogt hit ten for the losers.Upland's high scorer was centerJeff Solomon with 17 points, fol­lowed by Jim McCoy and AndySandquist with 14 and 12 respec­tively.

The varsity will have anotherchance this week to score itsinitial victory of the season whenit completes a heavy first-weekschedule at the University ofCalifornia at Riverside Fridaynight. Game time will be 8:15p.m.

Caltech's varsity basketballteam got off to a slow start inthe 1963-64 season by droppingtheir first two contests. Mondayevening at Scott Brown Gymna­sium the Beavers were downedby Life Bible College, 63-58, whena last-minute rally fell short,and Tuesday afternoon they lostto Upland College by a score of65-57, again on their home court.

In Monday's game the Tech­men, after trailing through mostof the first half, outscored theiropponents in the final minutesof that period and led at half­time by 29-27. During the firstportion of the second half, how­ever, they encountered a scar·ing slump, and were down by asmuch as ten points with as littleas five minutes remaining in thegame. A sudden surge of fast­breaking tactics combined withimproved outside shooting nar­rowed this gap to four pointswith one minute of playing timeremaining, but the Beaverswere unable to further close themargin.

Hampered in the game againstLife College by the absence ofstarter Dick Burgess, the varsitycagers relied on forward JoeWeis to carry much of the scor­ing load, and Weis respondedwith some accurate field-goalshooting to tally 24 points. Otherhigh scorers for Caltech wereGary Dahlman with 14 pointsand Dennis McCreary, who madeall of his 12 points on freethrows. Life College featured abalance attack with four of theirstarting five scoring ten or morepoints.

Against Upland College theBeavers led throughout most ofthe first half, but a late surge

SeismoIlOgyTremendous advances in the

past two decades in techniquesfor recording earthquake waveshave recently led to muchknOWledge about the mechanismof fauIting that causes earth­quakes. Strain gauges, 100-footquartz rods, provide a means formeasuring the stresses existingunder the earth's surface, andeventually they may be used inpredicting w hen earthquakesmight occur. But an interestingby-product of their use is thatthey can also be used to record,like seismographs, very-iong­period vibrations (r e son antmodes of the earth with aboutone-hour periods), a feat whichwas never before possible. Datafrom these gauges show thatstronger earthquake waves areemitted in certain directionsaway from a fault than in otherdirections, and thus the directionof faUlting can be determined,as it was for the 1960 Chileanearthquake. The speeds of pro­pagation of faulting have alsobeen uncovered from these data.

In the field of plane­tary science are also projects tomap the moon geologically, usingphotographs and radioactiVitymeasurements taken here onearth, and to explore Venus us­ing the distribution of tempera­ture across its disk, with newly­improved techniques.

Tektite StudiesTektites, hunks of fused sili­

They are found in theSahara, in Australia, in the Phi­lippines, and elsewhere, but no­body knows what caused theirformation or where they're from.Studying the ratio of the oxy­gen isotopes 018 and 0 16 foundin tektites gives some cluesabout their formation and his­tory. It seems that tektites havea quite constant ratio from oneto another, indicating a commonorigin, and this ratio is at theend of the spectrum of ratiosof other minerals. Attempts tofuse ordinary materials to givethe observed isotope ratio 'havefailed, indicating that tektites
