Squall ollege profitson Ml'r land discard

By Mike McNanmeeA small Bible college in Eastern Kentucky is $1 million richer this

year, thanks to a $100 investment and three Eastern universitieswhich literally-sold away a coalmine.

Cumberland College in Williamsburg, Ky., recently announced thesale of coal rights on 85,000 acres of Kentucky land which thecollege bought from MIT, Harvard, and Princeton Universities for$100 in 1933. The college has received a $1 million advancepayment, with more royalties to come if the coal yield exceedsexpectations.

As a result, while MIT's tuition hits $4000 and Hanrard andPrinceton's fees skyrocket over that amount, Cumberland's 1600students won't have to face hn increase in their $1200 tuition. Andwhile MIT's def¢icit continues to climb, Cumberland is out of the red,having applied about $500,000 in coal royalties to pay off old debts.

The land, which is located south of Williamsburg along Interstate75 in eastern Kentucky, was donated to the three colleges by NewYork industrialist Henry Clay Frick sometime prior to his death in1919. Frick's more notable acts of philanthropy includeestablishment of the Frick Collections and Frick Art ReferenceLibrary in New York City, substantial gifts to Harvard, and a$2-million-plus bequest to the Institute (although "most of Mr.Frick's estate was donated to Princeton," according to an archivistthere).

What were MIT, Harvard, and Princeton, bastions of the EasternEstablishment, to do with 85,000 acres of undeveloped Kentuckywilderness? The three schools apparently asked themselves that veryquestion when the Roaring Twenties gave way to the Great

By Mike McNameeControversy over MIT's in-

volement in a beer' company-sponsored Intercollegiate canoerace in California has forcedInterfraternity Conference of--*ficers to back down on their,original plans for selecting andorganizing MIT's team for therace.

A committee of IFC officersand fraternity representativeshas been named to select 24undergraduates - 12 fraternitymen and 12 women- to go onan all-expense-paid trip to LosAngeles and row in ar72-hourcanoe race sponsored by brewerAnheuser-Busch.

The committee was named-after pressure from fraternitypresidents, MIT women, andother undergraduates forced IFCofficers to modify their plans forselecting the "MIT Team,"which originally was to haveincluded women from otherschools and men selected appar-ently on the basis of friendshipwith IFC officers.

Under the new procedure,Director of Women's Athletics

Mary-Lou Sayles will nominate15 women for the 12 spots onthe team (any interested MITundergraduate woman shouldcontact Sayles before 4pm today), and each fraternity willsubmit tw6 men for the team.The Committee will make thefinal selection on the basis ofcurrent and' past athletic exper-ience and campus-wide activityexperience.

The "Fourth Annual GreatBudweiser Canoe Race," a pub-licity event staged to advertiseBudweiser beer, involves canoeteams from the University ofMaryland, the University ofCalifornia Los Angeles (UCLA),the University of Southern Cali-fomrnia (USC), and, MIT paddlingaround -a three-quarter milecourse- at Busch Gardens, anamusement park near LosAngeles. Although the race hasbeen run three times before, thisyear's contest is the first to draw

-Eastern teams.The controversy arose when

Anheuser-Busch contacted MarkSuchon '76 (DU), chairman ofthe IFC, and asked him to

organize an MIT team for therace. The company "has found itmakes practical sense" to pickone group on a campus toorganize a team, according toJoseph Finnigan, an Anheuser-Busch spokesperson.

"IFC was one of a number ofgroups we considered," Finnigansaid. "We talked to people oncampus - I can't remember who-- and got a list of groups. Weworked our way down the list,and IFC was the first one wereached with the organizationand interest to handle this."

Suchon, Joel Mandelbaum'77, Rusty Saunders '76, andIFC Judcomm Chairman JohnThain '78, all members of DeltaUpsilon fraternity, comprised aselection committee to pick theteam. Six of MIT's 30 fratern-ities were represented among the

12 men chosen; women from theBoston Conservatory of Musicand Simmons, Boston andWheelock colleges were beingconsideredfor places on the MITteam. One male member of theteam was quoted as saying, "Theonly reason I'm going is becauseI'm a good friend of JohnThain's."

Mandelbaum told The Techthat Anheuser-Busch had notoriginally specified that all mem-bers of the team had to be MITstudents. Protests by MIT stu-dents led to a call to raceorganizers, who told the selec-tion committee that team mem-bers' MIT identification wouldbe checked at the race site.

The selection committee thenagreed to select MIT women, butrefused - to reconsider the selec-

By Mike McNameeLambda Chi Alpha fraternity

(LCA) plans to appeal thedecision of the InterfraternityConference Judicial Committeeon the abduction and abuse ofthree Phi Gamma Delta (Fiji)freshmen last fall, The Tech haslearned.

LCA president John Cavol-owsky '76 said the house hasvoted to take tne Judcomm

decision to fine LCA back to thegroup and ask for a re-hearing ofthe case. Cavolowsky refused tostate the grounds for the appeal,saying "We'll take that up withJudcomm when we contactthem."

According to Cavolowsky,appealing a Judcomm decisionto the same body "is the usualthing for the IFC." IFC proced-ure calls for appointing two new

investigators, naming two newmembers to Judcomm, andholding a new hearing on thecase.

Judcomm fined LCA $500Dec. 11 after a hearing on theOct. 24 incident in which threeFiji freshmen caught paintingover LCA's "smoot marks" onthe Harvard Bridge were takento the LCA house and subjectedto "extreme" treatment by LCAmembers. A statement releasedby Judcomm after the hearingcalled the LCA actions "irres-ponsible and detrimental to theMIT fraternity system."

Asked if LCA would pay thefine, due May 1, if its appeal isstill under consideration, Cavol-owsky replied, "You figure thatout."

In addition to fining LCA$500, the maximum fine Jud-comm can impose, the groupordered Fiji to restore the smootmarks to their original conditionby May 1.

One of the studentsprotesting the IFC's actions,David Martin '76 (ATO), made aphone survey of officers of 20fraternities and found that 19house presidents hadn't heardabout the IFC officers' plans forthe canoe race. 'The officersclearly hadn't bothered to re-present all the fraternities -they were using their positionsfor themselves," Martin said.

A meeting of the IFC was

called for Sunday morning,Mandelbaum said, and 14 housessent representatives. The fratern-ity representatives voted to con-fine the team selection tofraternity members, but esta-blished the new procedure andagreed to take non-fraternitywomen.

The planning for all this wVasleft up to our discretion,"Mandelbaum said, adding thatthe IFC was dealing with "localBudweiser people who had never

run one of these races before."Confusion over who should goand what the team's statuswould be resulted, thz said, and"all our problems stem fromthat."

Finnigan told The Tech hewas "surprised" at the controv-ersy over the canoe race. "I can'tspeak for the fairness or right-ness of vwhat's been done," hesaid, "but our main idea is tohave fun."

To the Editor:How ironic that- some of the

letters to the editor published inthe Dec. 2 and Dec. 5 editions ofThe Tech suffer from what isusually attributed to the Arabs,namely emotionalism. The merefact of using the word "lies" inevery other paragraph portraysthis emotionalism and estab-lishes an atmosphere of hostilityfar from that of a rational dis-cussion.

Our purpose in writing thisshort note is not to provide apoint-by-point rebuttal to thisavalanche of spurious arguments.To engage in a purely polemicaldebate will never lead to a con-structive exchange. We shall onlyaddress ourselves here to whatwe feel is the fundamental issueof the Middle East problem.

One of our critics mentionedthe "right to a homeland" forthe "Jewish people." Of coursewe cannot deny any people ahome. In the specific case ofwhat is called Zionism, however,there are other considerations.Since we are also playing dic-tionary games, "Zionism is amodern colonization movementwhich aims to establish a per-manent national home for Jewsin Palestine." (Webster's NewTwentieth Century Dictionary,p. 2003 (1965)). Does this rightto a homeland override therights of others, namely thePalestinians, who have always

UnlistedTo the Editor:

In regard to the article an-nouncing the discontinuing bythe Information Service of pro-viding phone numbers of MITstudents due in part to a largeincrease in the number of suchcalls, I wonder if the Informa-tion Service might possibly con-nect the increase with the factthat the student directory om-mitted the phone numbers (aswell as room numbers) of stu-dents in the New West CampusHouses?

Eric Black '77January 10, 1976

lived there and whose home theland actually is? And 'further,why don't those of us who areChristians, regardless of whetherwe are Arabs or American citi-zens, demand a. home for"Christians" and call that a liber-ation movement - and maybechoose Palestine as a "home"since Christianity was born inJerusalem? Clearly an absurdproposition!

-True, there is a nationalcommunity of Israelis in Pales-tine today which is distinct fromthat of the Palestinian Arabs.

But let us make clear that thisIsraeli national community hasnothing to do with a "JewishNation" all over the world- Fur-ther,,this recognition can in noway obliterate the existence ofthe Palestinian national com-munity which preceded the crea-tion of Israel. And our proposalt o all democratically-mindedpeople is precisely a democraticPalestine that will allow for thecoexistence of these two com-munities.

To the Editbr:Mark Throop's letter about

"Transparent Horizons" in theDecember 10 The Tech might bea parody, but I fear not. First heestablishes himself as categoricaland authoritarian with "MIT isthe best school in the coun-try ... It represents 'the highestachievements of mankind inmany fields from science to art."Then he criticizes recent MIT artacquisitions: "It shouldn't looklike a three-year-old did it. . . Good pieces of art have anappeal to everyone . . . Theyshow idealized man, man reach-ing his highest goals."

The point is well made. Mr.

Throop phrases his criticism ofthe MIT Committee on the Vis-ual Arts in terms of them ques-tioning whether the artist is rip-ping them off and whether "intwenty or thirty years MIT artwill be looked on as beautiful asworthless .pieces of garbage." Hisown opinion is painfully clear.He is insensitive to radical dis-agreement with his point ofview.

One virtue of MIT he missedwas innovation. I personally pre-fer chasing after someone ex-ploring new ideas I don't yetunderstand to enshrining com-fortable familiar ones.

PAGE 4 .THE TECH TUESDAYFEBRUARY3,1976

A brandnew column;sports and the news

By Glenn BrownsteinWith this issue The Tech begins a new volume with a different

board and a somewhat different look. The opinion page takes on anew look as well, as "The Real World" makes its debut today.

Believe it or not, this column will have very little to do with MIT(if anything at all), but instead will attempt to give our loyal reader-ship semiweekly glimpses of what's going on in the greater Bostonarea (especially Boston and Cambridge) and numerous miscellaneous"real world" items.

You won't find out how 6.011 is graded here, or why the build-ing numbering system is based on a polar coordinate map of Cam-bridge, but you should be able to learn a little bit about the areaaround us that many students here know very little about (exceptmaybe the subway system, Boston Garden, and the Harvard-Dudleybus).

The title of the column comes from the division most MIT stu-dents make in their own minds between our beloved -Institute andthe rest of Earth, between dear old MIT and the real world.

For what it's worth, I've moved up from Sports Editor to Editor-in-Chief, and so you've probablyseen one or more of my "FoulShots " columns appearing in thelast year.

Since most of my experiencehas come in the form of sportsreporting, a number of theseforthcoming columns will under-standably be about sports, whichbrings me to my first topic.namely the relationship of sportsto the real world. More basically,does sports have any place at all

in a troubled society like ours?Sometimes those of us who write about the sports world get sec-

ond thoughts about its relative importance compared with the wars,depressions, and hundreds of other crises which befall us seeminglyevery day. Speaking personally, I'm told very often that I shouldchannel my talents and responsibilities elsewhere, that writing aboutsports is a waste of time and that the general public has a need toknow many other much more important things.

What we often forget is that sports is primarily a diversion, anentertainment that allows us to put aside our problems for a fewbrief moments and watch skilled athletes perform. The Red Soxmade many of us forget about the civil strife and racial tensions pre-sent in our area. The World Series didn't ameliorate the problem, byany means, but at least it eased the tensions for a little while andgave Bostonians some small common bond to work with.

Last weekend, the American Broadcasting Company presented a"Wide World of Sports" segment entitled "The Harlem Globetrottersat Attica," which featured the world-famous basketball wizards pre-senting their act at Attica Correctional Institution in upstate NewYork.

Attica brings to mind riots, uprisings, embattled inmates andguards, in short, the 1971 crisis. The 'Trotters bring to mind "SweetGeorgia Brown," the antics of Meadowlark Lemon, the impressivedribbling talents of Marques Haynes or Curley Neal, the 55-foothook shots and the famous intricate Globetrotter passing weave.

The combination of the two is intriguing, and ABC, given a rarechance to take up a serious social issue in a sports program, did soconvincingly. Those wishing to see an excellent basketball show werenot disappointed, as the Globetrotters performed as superbly as ever.Those wishing to see just basketball lost out, though, as ABC pre-sented four-year-old footage of the riots, and the prison's past his-tory and present complexion never escaped the viewer. In all, thoughit was a very moving, impressive broadcast.

Whatever one's opinion of Howard Cosell, he was at his most ef-fective in interviewing inmates, guards, officials, and players, at cap-turing the strongly mixed emotions present at Attica on that day.Granted, at times the questions were banal and trite, the programwas overly dramatic and required the viewer to make drastic emo-tional shifts in short periods of time, but at least the program wasundertaken, which is a beginning.

* If we are to justify that sports has a role in society, if we are tosupport the argument that sports is as much a part of the worldaround us as anything else, programs like this must be attempted.

Bringing the "real" world into sports is usually very difficult andupsetting (as the case of the 1972 Olympics shows), but it's a start inproving the unfortunate point that we can't escape from the day-to-day problems in anything we do. That's kind of a shame, because Ithink the attraction of sports is that it allows us to compete vicar-iously, to let us release pent-up frustrations and energies that couldbe directed maliciously, to allow us to get away from all the painand anguish of life today.

I guess there'll always be critics as long as there are things to criti-cize, so I'm not going to change my outlook toward the value ofsports. Many viewers called in to protest ABC's program. Others ac-claimed it. What does this show? Only that sports should be accept-ed for what it is, and that in essence, it's subject to the same kind ofscrutiny that everything else is. I, personally, feel that sports shouldstay on the back page or in the second section because it doesn'thave the consequences of hard news and appeal to as many people.But let's not do away with it altogether, because the thought of afew smiles and a little (not much, but some) hope at Attica, and thefact that the schools of Boston were relatively calmer during theWorld Series, are things we ought to think about and for which weought to be thankful.

THE policy of the Engli.h government in re-T rd to the Irish question has lbeen, up tothis time, a lenient one; and if we believe SirWillinm HIarcourt's late speech, it will continue

this issue, wesome of variou

thought it might bes styles that the paper

has sported in its 96 years. While this is by no means a complete ordetailed look at the stages the paper went through it is a record of aninteresting development. Above is the original cover design and inside page(the inside page would remain unchanged for 22 years). From the ornatecover of the first 13 years, the paper went to a much simpler design in1894, while retaining the size and image of a journal. In 1896, a changewas made back to a more ornate design.

,i In extending to you this wel-come to the work and to the play,to the good natured rivalries and totile life-long friendships of your lifehere, there is one thing I wish Imight make clear to -you, and thatis, that every man in the instructingstaff is ready and anxious to be yourfriend and to forward your interests.You mav be sure of a cordial wel-come not only to tile office of youradviser but at the room of anyteacher in tile Institute. You willwant to know the Dean at tile earli-est moment possible in your lifehere, and you may feel sure of hissympathy and his help. If you arein doubt, get his advice and followit. And I hope you will not forgetthe medical adviser, who is hindselfa Tech graduate and who knows thedifficulties and needs of your life.Ilis office hours are posted and he isaccessible to you at those hourswithout oliarge.

"I always envy a man whostands at tile beginning of his Co!-lege life. If a man does not findthese four years full of inspirationand joy, I think it very doubtfulwhether he can expect to be joyfulill this life.

,,I have thoug1it as I have metone aftel another of your clas4 inthe last week-, what an education itwould be for a member of this classsimply to know his own classmates.I have shaken hands withl men ofyour class whose homes are inChina, in the Philippines, in Corea,in Mexico, 'in England, in everypart of our Union. East and westhere mneet together, and if each maylearn to understand the other ytouhave a worhl ae(cuaintance in soknowing each other. And to pro-mote this very knowledge and un-derstanding of men is one of thechief ends of education, and of edu-cational institutions. In proportionas men come in real touch they growin judgnment, in sympathy, in theability to see the other man's view.

Nearly eight hun-dred men will tiis year study atTechl who were not there last year,and of these nearly five hundredwill belong to thile Fresihmlan Class,a record whilich exceeds that of anyother class in the history of theInstitute except that of two yearsago.

And never the twailn shall meetTill Earth and Sky stand presentlyBefore God's judgment seat;Blutt there is no East andl there is no WestNor border. nor breed, nor birth,When two strong men stand face to face,Though they come from the ends of the

s Out of just such association asyou are to have here comes that un-derstanding which means strength,and I want to suggest to you, thosefrom East and West, from Northand South, to know each other.

And I am led to follow this onestep further. It is a matter of nosmall significance that men of theEast and of the West, of differentcivilization and different race his-tory, meet here to study together.For the work which men come hereto learn lends itself to the positiveside of human endeavor, not to thenegative side; to the side whichbuilds up, not the side which pullsdown; to the arts which look toyardpeace, not to those which look towardwar. It will be a real loss to theworld if out of such associationthelre does not come that whichlooks toward the peace of the world.

THE TECIH'8 DINNER TO THEFRESHME1N.

One hundred and forty men hada very enjoyable evening at TechUnion lHst night at the dinner givenunder the auspices of THE TECH.President Pritchett was introducedas the first speaker by Mr. Lombard,the toastmaster. The Presidenturged the men to use the TechUnion as a general meeting placefor social gatherings, and proceededto tell of the great part the Unionsplayed in student life at the U'niver-sities of Scotland. He suggestedthat we pattern them in having de-bates at our Union. ML .A. Coesketched the growth of Techniquefron the pamphlet to the presentvolume with the growth of Tech-nology, and pointed out that it wasnot only the Junior's book, but thecommon book of all the classes.Dean Burton was next called uponand in his genial way spoke of the,,traditions " of Technology. J. T.Lawtonl spoke as representative ofthe musical clubs and was followedby the Bursar, MNr. Iandl, who seemsto have lost none of his sparklingwit and hulmolr. WT.

E. E. Whitney was toastmaster,and iiitroduced the speakers withsome very interesting remarks.

Dean Burton spoke first, andgave to i9Io, the welcome of theFaculty. Alexander Macomber,the first speaker, gave a short his-tory of the Show, and appealed tothe men to come out. Phelps N.Swvett spoke shortly on the musicalorganization. The new head ofCourse 6, Prof. Dugald C. Jack-son, was then introduced, and wel-comed heartily: He compared thle

western and eastern college spirit,and said he was about to become aTech mail. Harry A. Rapelyegave a few words oel the Te,'niqzue.He told of the uniqueness of the

p1ublication, and its high standardamong college annals. The Bur-sar then told a few of his inimita-ble stories, which were relished bythe hearers as they alvays are.

John S. Tobin 'o6 gave the fresh-nmeni a talking to about the poorshowing they made at their firstfootball practice. He made astrong appeal for the track team.After singing a few songs, the

The Freshman Class, or at leasta large portion of it, met for thefirst time socially Frida) eveningat the reception given to theim bythe Y'oting Mlen's Christian Asso-ciation. A large quota from theig9o class was present, as were anumber of the more prominentupperclass iimen. Ample timie wasallowed before the speaking for themen to become acquainted.

T. C. Keelng, Vos, president ofthe Association, introduced thespeakers after a few welcoming re-marks. Dean Burton was the firstspeaker, and was welcomed heart-ily. He told the new ineii thatthe)y would find the miemibers ofthe Faculty nmuch inore agreeableoutside the class room than within.He also told them to visit their ad-visers. There seemied to be afeeling amiong the iiien that theadvisers were to be dreaded, andthat in a few days after the open-ing of the school term, the mien nolonger visited the professors as-signed to theni. This was makingthe advisers a dead letter, and waspreventing the Faculty from be-coming acquainted with the wantsof the new ineii. The Dean thengave a short explanatory historyof the Institute, and spoke of thenaines that ought to be dear to theheart of every Tech niane. Hesaid that Tech was a pioneerschool in the niew forln of edtuca-tin that dealt with the seriousproblems of life inuilediately afterthe high school.

successes in- the 50 yard dashand as mile relay anchor leg,along with his superior hurdlingefforts, are the reasons why heleads MIT in scoring with 593/4

points.In the 35 lb. weight throw,

Fred Bunke '78 has establishedhimself as MIT's best with his51'7'/2" toss against CoastGuard. Bunke and teammatesJohn Lungberg '77 (49'71/4") andSteve Sifferlen (47'5") pose anawesome three-way threat in theweight event..

Joe Egan '77, Jeff Baerman'76, and Frank Richardson '77-have led a stifling distance at-tack, outscoring foes 70-11 inthe past three meets. BarryBayus '79, John Krolewski '77,Jaxk Reeves '77, and John Dil-lon '78 have also contributed to

that large edge in the 1000, mile,and two mile.

High jumper Reid von Borstel'78 has stretched his unbeatenstring to six. He leaped 6'4"against both Bowdoin and CoastGuard. Juniors Jim Williams con-tinues to improve in the polevault. Williams earned victoriesin his last three outings andcleared at least 13 feet on all oc-casions.

The squad's success is due tothe large number of talented in-dividuals out for the team andthe absence. of many serious in-juries thus far. This year's55-man team nearly doubles thesize of last year's squad.

The Coast Guard win markedthe first time that the Engineershad ever beaten an Academytrack team and sweetly avengeda 1975 humiliating 87-31 loss.Last year, Bowdoin crushed MIT
