preneurs resold tickets for $5.00 or more.Other enterprising souls have been sell-ing the originally free tickets to the NYCBallet.

This sort of profiteering is reprehens-ible, but we can only appeal to the con-science of the student body to discouragesuch activities. The problem of prevent-ing profiteering and dealing with offend-ers rests on the shoulders of student gov-ernment.

The situation is currently not unbear-able; but it is within the power of theJudicial Committee to look into the mat-ter and perhaps determine whether moresericus, large-scale ticket resale mightccur. Certainly s t u d e n t governmentshould make an attempt to halt unethicalstudent conduct long before officialadministrative notice is taken.

Jurisdiction in such cases, where bothfinancial and individual judicial actionmay be involved, is another problem tobe faced in the reorganization of studentgovernment being planned. Increasedself-discipline by the undergraduatesneeds a clearer blueprint for fast and ef-ficient action than is currently used. Theunderstandable . hesitation of some stu-dent leaders to "meddle" in vaguely de-fined areas of responsibility could be end-ed by clear definition.

The present problem is not unbear-able; but strong action now could set avaluable precedent discouraging furtherprofiteering and outlining future organ-ization.

One of the strongest maxims mbridge is that one should nevertrump one's partner's trick. Thishand illustrates that sometimes itpays to violate the inviolable un-der certain, highly-unusual condi-tions.

Think it outWest leads his King of hearts,

followed by the Ace, on whichEast completes his high-low sig-nal, and continues with theQueen. Before playing to thethird trick, East must rememberto thlink. South is marked withsix. spades and four diamonds byhis bidding sequence and has al-ready played two small hearts.

After some thought, East isable to deduce that South's 13thcard must also be a heart. Eastknows that West knows how manyhearts East has by his high-lowsignal, how many hearts are indummy, how many hearts he him-self has, and, therefore, how manyhearts South has by simple arith-metic. However, if West knewthat South was out of hearts, hewould either switch to anothersuit or lead other than the Queen,probably the Jack, to tell hispartner that South was void.Thus, declarer has one moreheart.

Trump partner's trickNow, East knows how to as-

sure that the contract is set. Aslong as dummy has only one en-try and as long as neither Westnor East lead either minor suit,declarer can neither finesse dia-monds nor set up clubs for twodiamond discards. East shouldtrump his partner's good Queenand lead back a spade! Then, hecan sit back and wait for his even-tual trick in diamonds.

The reason he must trump theheart is to keep his partner frommaking the wrong guess. Eventhough West should realize thathe cannot lead a club or anotherheart, he has no way of knowingwhether to lead spades or dia-monds. If he guesses wrong, hefinesses his partner and gives de-clarer his needed trick.

Save A-BallIt has bec:n a source of considerable

pride at MIT that an annual white-tieformal is held on campus. The Assem-blies Ball has been a social eventmat ched by few other colleges, even inthe East. It would. be a shame to see thistradition ended

Unfortunately A-Ball is in danger ofbeing dropped this year unless someonec-mes to the rescue. A serious shortageof manpower - and consequently offtlnds - on the Walker staff, the tra-diticnnl hosts, has made it all but impos-sible for that group to finance and runthe ball by themselves.

This is a real opportunity for somestudent groups to move into action andoffer their services. Inscomm might lookinto the feasibility of offering both serv-ices and funds and perhaps devising aninvitation system to include all the lead-crs in campus activities.

There are a number of different pos-sibilities now open: the ball could be in-cluded as an annual event under the stu-dent government reorganization; ticketsmight be sold; a set weekend might bechosen. But it is important to start workimmediately for this year's presentation.

There are people on the Walker staffwvh; have expressed a desire to see anA-B1ll this year; the job need not bestarted from scratch. What is needed issomeone to assume the responsibility andstart organizing this year's ball now.

dents and sec-treasurers. Committee would now be in

charge of JP. The JP electionis usually held in December andit may be argued that the Marchclass committee election willcause a time delay in the plan-ring process. But as a former JPchairman, I can say that thisextra time is not needed.

Also, I feel that the changewill put the job in the proper per-spective. Being on the class com-mittee has a different connota-ticn than being class vice presi-dent. Another point is that manygood men that run for top officeand lose are left out of classgovernment. This way we will besure of getting the men the classwants most. The highest vote get-ters will be the men chosen.

Also, this eliminates the prob-lem of JP committeemen runninglater for class offices. Finally, thewhole system is simpler. Thereis only one election period andonly two offices for each class,president or Executive Commit-tee.

6. The Constitutions divisionof Secretariat is currently re-viewing constitutions of all ac-tivities, at the request of theDean's Office. They are seek-ing: membership discriminatoryclauses, possible affiliations withgroups on the Attorney Gen-eral's list, and irregularities inMIT status of officers.

7. The faculty was not ableto come to a vote during theirNovember meeting on theCommittee on Educational Pol-icy recommendations about thec o r e curriculum. Informationabout the content of the corecourses did not reach facultymembers soon enough for fulldiscussion.

In original form the motionsw o u I d eliminate sophomorephysics, sophomore math, and5.02 from the General InstituteRequirements. Students wouldtake 8 humanities subjects, 3science electives, and I labelective. All students not inROTC would take 6-hour engi-

neering elective during theirfirst two years.

The thesis requirement wouldbecome departmental.

All prospects indicate a fav-orable vote on most measureson December 16. They will befirst applied to next year'sfreshmen.

8. Harvard has asked for$1.5 million in NDEA loan fundsfor next year - but is actuallyhoping to receive only $800,-000. Wallace McDonald, direc-tor of their financial aid office,said that an important factor indetermining the size of theirgrant was whether or not MITapplied for funds.

The amount of NDEA grantsdepends on the number of stu-dents and schools in a geogra-phic region. Harvard got $350,-000 this year; MIT got about$650,000.

An average of $8 million isavailable for all of Massachu-sefts in each of the next 4 years.

Surprise for Harvard: MIThas asked for almost $1 milliorfor next year's loans.

Classes will be suspended from11:00 am to 12:00 noon on Wed-nesday, Decenber 16 while theannual Christmas Convocation forthe faculty, staff and students isheld in Kresge Auditorium.

Dr. George R. Harrison, Dean-of the School of Science, Emeri-tus, will be the principal speak-er according to Gerald Tomanek'67, chairman of the ConvocationSub-committee. Professor VictorH. Mattfed will serve as organ-ist for the convocation.

There will be refreshments andcaroling foilowing the convoca-tion.

Harvard University has an-nounced a drive to raise $11 mil-lion for construction of a newundergraduate science center.

A vote of the Harvard facultyin October budgeted $1 millfonfrom current funds for the cen-ter, which is expected to cost $12million.

Departments of Physics, Chem-istry, Mathematics, Geology, Nat-ural Sciences, Statistics, Biology,and Astronomy will be housed in2;50,000 square feet of floor space.

Use of federal funds, whichmight come from the NationalScience Foundation or the Na-tional Institutes of Health, willbe avoided, according to a deanof the Faculty of Arts and Sci-ences in a recent Harvard Crim-son arcle.

By John BlankinshipProject MAC, short for Machine

Aided Cognition and Multiple Ac-cess Computer, is scheduled toundergo several revisions and im-provements in the next few years.

Last week the new equipmentand the multiple uses of the proj-ect were discussed; this week theactual types of changes are noted.

Regarding the future of ProjectMAC and the computer industryin general, it is Prof. Fano's be-lief that "every good thing mustcome to an end, or transform."He did say that MAC would be

around for a long time to come,but could not specify how long.

MAC presently operates on athree million dollar annual budgetfrom the Advanced ResearchProjects Agency and is accord-ingly funded until August of 1966.Prof. Fano anticipates that inthree to four years, systems pro-gramming will be chiefly a proj-ect for industry, whereas activi-ties and applications will continueto be one for the university.

Probably nothing clears up asmany questions and creates asmany new ones as seeing MACin operation. All communicationbetween the operator and thecomputer is handled by the tele-type machine.

To begi -with, no operationscan be carried on without firstgiving your name to the com-puter. You can either give yourown name, if you are actuallyregistered with the computer, orgive someone else's name, inas-much as the computer is certain-ly not going to lmow the differ-ence.

The computer's reply is in ef-fect, "Big deal. So your name isFano, but what is the password?"No doubt many observers havebeen disappointed, finding that theprinter is turned off automaticallyas the password is typed out.

Once the operator and the com-puter have come to terms, com-mands may be typed oult on theteletype. Before and after eachcommand, ready and wait signalsare given by the computer.

The ready signal indicates therunning and lost time of the im-mediately preceding operation andsignifies that the computer isready for another command. Once'the command is given, the waitsignal actmowledges the given

command and records its time,i.e., 0900.

As the signal implies, there is abrief lapse before the commandis actually executed, due to otherteletypes being used at the sametime.

One particular series of opera-tions proceeded as follows: TheLISTF command was given whichlisted the operator's files and howlong they were. Two files ontwenty-one tracks were indicated.

The PRINTED PRIME MAD com-mand was given which printed atwenty line MAD program forprime numbers. After a sequenceof other commands the computerrequested that the range be print-ted on two lines. Ten and thirtywere printed and the prime num-bers were immediately given as11, 13, 17, 19, 23, and 29.In another similar set of com-

mands, the range was printed as(Please turn to page 5)

Dripping-with television cliches,the film roars out at you withthe pseudo emotionality the pub-lic likes. If I were a businessman,as someone in the movie managedto point out through his Hollywoodmakeup, I should be delighted tofinmd the mass paying its moneyto see it; actually, I should bejust as delighted to find the pub-lic not paying a cent.

Everywhere, the architecturaldetails of display have been con-sidered in laying out the museum.The series of rooms displayingtwentieth-century paintings, for in-stance, are much smaller thanthose already described, withlower ceilings (well, actually withhigher floors), and blank pastelwalls. The large "RennaissanceGallery" has wood floors, damp-ened with rugs,' and a timberedceiling which is almost an ex-hibit in itself.

The museum's collection, thoughsmall, is quite varied: ornateGothic tankards, delicate,porcelain figurines, furniture, andpolychrome woodcarvings bothlarge and small; all in additionto the usual paintings and graph-ics.

The twentieth century Germanartists are fully represented here.The museum collection is espe-cially rich in examples from ArtNouveau (called "Jugendstyl" inpaintings, prints, and publicationsfrom the "Brucke" and "BlauReiter" groups, from the Bau-haus, and from practitioners ofArt Nouveau . . . called "Jug-endstyl" in Germany. Usually,some of the museum's vast col-lection of works by the American-German. Lyonel Feininger, includ-ing sketches, letters, and comic-strips, are on display.

The exhibit opening this seasonis a general survey of the mtl-seum's resources, as shown bestin a large collection of recentacquisitions. Later shows, it ishoped, will continue a policy ofclarity and thoroughness whichhas made every show inforrativeas well as pleasant.

By 1{. Meriden WallingfordAt the foot of Quincy Street

stands one of the area's best lit-tle museums, the Busch-ReisingerCenter for the Germanic Arts. Itis small enough and convenientenough to qualify as a twenty-minute stop whenever there isfime to kill in Harvard Square.

The most strin thing aboutthe building is the careful atten-tion to setting which all exhibitshave received. For instance, thefirst major exhibition-space is a"Romanesque Gallery," a tall,barrell-vaulted room housing plas-ter casts of church statuary from,that period. Like a church, theroom lighted from windows highon the walls, so that instead ofdirect glare, a soft glowing light

filters everywhere. The room evensounds like a church, because theechoes from a stone floor reboundfrom bare walls and ceiling, andthe statues themselves add to theeffect.

Entrance to the next hall isthrough a plaster reproduction ofa portal from the Cathedral ofFreiberg, including a "Last Judi-ment" above the pediment. Andto pass from this hall (the "Goth-ic Gallery"), one passes througha Rood Screen from NaumburgCathedral, in which even the cen-turies of wear on the stone door-

sill has been nmon-cked. Last inthis procession is a room in theshape of an apse, dominated bya complicated altarpiece ofcarved, polychromed wood.

operational techniques both inlaboratory and in the use of theo-ry in such traditional areas aschemical equilibrium. The lab-oratory for 5.01N has been a sub-tantial revision of the 5.01 lab-oratory and has been conductedwith higher precision equipmentand different experiments. Ac-cording to Professor Moore, theselabs have proven very successful.

The course sequence 5.01N-5.02Nwas first proposed last June as amodel one-year course. At pres-ent, it is given in three lectures,one recitation, and one lab perweek. The textbook chosen has notbeen published yet but has been-distributed in note form as a ref-erence on lecture material.

According to Professor Moore,the course is designed on the lev-el of the average student, and hefeels that student performance sofar has been from fair to excel-lent.

He hopes to bring to his stu-dents the fundamental chemicalprinciples that emphasize chem-istry as a logical discipline.

Round Hill researchesinclude Van de Graaff

(Continuved jrom Page 1)

The apparatus measured thebeat frequency of two maserbeams propagated in perpendicu-lar directions. As the earthmoved, any small dhange in thedistances traversed by the tvowaves could be precisely meas-ured.

In 1932, a 2 million-volt Vande Graaff generator, 43 feet tall,was built at the blimp dock ofRound Hill by Prof. Robert Vande Graaff. It was the first largegenerator; now obsolete, it is inthe Boston Museum of Science.

After Lincoln Laboratory wasestablished in 1950 the Round 1-illIfacility was used, by Jerome B.Wiesner, now Dean of Science,for work in scatter .transmissionof microwaves for long distanceradio communication.

EUT workers will remain onthe site until early next year.

The Department of Chemistry'sn e w experimental freshmencourse, 5.01 N, is arousing inter-est in chemical theory among the53 students enrolled, according tocourse director Professor William,R. Moore.

With the Institute's academicmethods changing the pilot coursewas designed to test a new ap-proach to the core courses 5.01and 5.02 and to deal in greaterdepth with the topics covered.

Much of the traditional empiri-cal cataloguing of elements and

their properties has been de-emphasized, and the instructorshave planned to develop in de-tail the concepts of kinetic theory,crystal structure, and the theoryof liquids as a base for laterstudy in descriptive chemistry.

Professor Moore believes that,since high school courses are im-proving the freshman's prepara-tion and ability to handle chem-ical arithmetic. the stress uponmachinery and calculation can bekept at a minimum.

The new course stresses correct

Eventually it is hoped to get anew bar with what was termed"a beer first, coke second ap-pearance" to replace the current,reversed situation.

Prof. Smullin at work on fusion; Froshs ortshot plasma produced in magnet lab Basketball team to oaen Saturdav at Baowdoin

By Barry MitnickWhat's the "biggest thing you

can do with a laser?" ProfessorLouis D. Smullin of the Depart-mlent of Electrical Engineeringawered his own question sometime ago by bouncing a laserearn off the moon. The experi-

ment served as a confirmation ofte inverse square law and theIelocity of light.Perhaps not as spectacular, but

certainly more fundamental, haseen Professor Smullin's recentork on developing a method fortaining controlled nuclear fus-on. Various methods of doing thisgre being worked on throughoutle country.The basic object of the workas been to create a very hotiasma which is entirely con-

gned in some sort of evacuatedink, The plasma cannot be al-boved to touch the walls of itscontainer because of the tremen-

dous differences in temperatureinvolved. Powerful magnetic fieldshave generally been used to ac-complish this, and so the prob-lem has come down to one of de-veloping feasible methods of in-jecting and heating the plasma.

One way in which this has beendone has been to squirt acceler-ated ions into the magnetic field.The ions and their energy aretrapped until the necessary condi-tions have been reached. Anothermethod begins with a cold gas inthe tank and uses a rapidlychanging magnetic field to ionizethe gas and inject the necessaryenergy.

Professor Smullin emphasizesthat the "rule is that there hasto be no hands" because theplasma is so "enormously hot." InProfessor Smullin's work the gasis contained in a "magnetic bot-tle." A high-powered electronbeam directed along the axis ofthe magnetic field ionizes the gasand delivers the huge amounts ofenergy needed.

The plasma is extremely tenu-ous, being of the order of a mil-lionth of an atmosphere. The di-rect current of the electron beamis converted in the plasma to anoscillating one, as the result ofthe conversion of the beam en-ergy to heat.

Professor Smullin is now work-ing on his fourth "machine;" hehas moved into the National Mag-net Laboratory after outgrowingolder facilities.

On the future of nuclear fusion,Professor Smullin says that, aswith any new development, "peo-ple will have to learn what it'sgood for."

Present power sources will notbe exhausted in the near future.Certainly, however, "it would finda place."

After nearly four weeks of get-ting into shape and working onboth fundamentals and patterns,Coach Arnold Singal's freshmanbasketball team will open up its196465 season with a game thisSaturday against Bowdoin Col-lege. Three practice games werescheduled purposely against toughopponents such as Boston Collegeand Salem Teachers College inorder to be sure that the teamwould be ready once the regularseason began. Although they wverethe weakei- team in the games,the frosh showed good shootingpotential and the ability to scrapfor rebounds off the boards - twofactors which are essential forwinning basketball.

Nearly all of the players havehad previous experience. Amongthem is 6'4" Dave Jansson froma high school which won the Wis-consin state basketball champion-ship. Two 6'5" front court men,Alec Bash and Bill Chotkowsky,are expected to see a lot of ac-tion, giving the frosh an unusualamount of height. On the backline are 6'2" Dave Altmann, afine shooter, and 5'10" Steve De-rodeff, an excellent floor man.

TrackThe freshman indoor track

squad has good prospects for near-ly every event but perhaps lacksthe depth necessary to have anoutstanding season. Steve Sydo-riak has already proven himselfto be an excellent pole vaulter,having vaulted over twelve feet.

Tom McGovern is a versatile run-ner, being a middle distance rac-er as well as a hurdler. Thestandout sprinter is Steve Silver-stein, and Dan .Hoban, who wasa superb cross country runnerthis past fall, is the number onelcng distance man. The trackmenhave their first meet against Bow-doin on Saturday.

SquashThe squash team had an ex-

tremely fine turnout of forty-fivefreshmen. Although their experi-ence with the game is limited,their overall depth and enthusi-asm make Coach James Taylorfeel that this will be MIT's finestfrosh squad team in severalyears. A great deal of practicetime remains before their firstmatch against Middlesex on Jan-uary 7.

Swordsmen open SaturdayThe MIT varsity fencing team

begins its season this Saturdaywith an away meet Brandeis Uni-versity.

While the team lacks the depththat it has had in previous years,the starting line-up shows consid-erable strength. The epee squadhas improved over its already ex-cellent condition of last. year, hav-ing lost only Karl Kunz. Return-ing men on the epee team areTom Seddon '66, Lee Stratton '67,and Bill DeBonte '65.

The foil squad seems to be inbetter shape than ever before,

returning Craig Wheeler '65 andAl Stottlemeyer '65, while GeorgeChurinoff '67 seems to have naileddown a varsity spot in his firstyear. Only the sabre team showssigns of weakness, possibly due tolack of experience. Likely candi-dates for the three varsity spotsinclude Bob Silverstein '65, MikeOppenheimer '65, Tom Krause '66,and Bill Murray '67.

The team opens its season un-officially tonight at duPontagainst the MIT Fencing Clubcomposed of alumni, grad stu-dents and faculty.

Hockey tear expects better year;Open against UMass Saturday

By Gerry BannerDespite a lack of experienced

seniors, varsity hockey coach Ben-jamin Martin, Jr. predicts con-siderable improvement over lastyear's winless season. Led by Ce-capt. Hank Newall '65, the teamis holding daily practices on theBriggs Field rink in preparationfor their opening game againstU. of Mass. on December 5 atAmherst.

Three front lines plannedCoach Martin plans for three

lines this year to increase thedepth of Tech's scoring punch.The first line will find Co-capt.Newall at center and Pete Catto'66 and Tony Pasquale '66 at theforwards. Warren Wood '66 willcenter the second line with SteveShapiro '66 at one forward andBob Percell '66 at the other. So-phomores Pete Getting, BobSmith, Steve Queeney, and BudElmer will probably compose thethird line.

Defense weak spotDefense prospects are not as

hopeful. However, with star de-fenseman and Co-capt. ScottBluen '65 sidelined with mono-nucleosis for about half the sea-son. Bill Kosiher '66 will have toassume the brunt of the defensive

work along with Fritz Schaefer'66 and Ralph Schmidt '66.

Last years second string goalie,Bob MacDonald '66, will probablyopen the season in the nets. Theteam's success will depend largelyon the improvement of its inex-perienced defensemen in the earlypart of the schedule.

co XWrestlers lose Iregular; look forreturn to the top

.1- The MIT varsity wrestlersa- opened their .season last night

against Harvard on the Tech matsc4 in hopes of getting a good starto on what should prove to be a

very fine season. The loss bygr-aduation of only two ieiermnen

u and one regular leaves the squad,J, practically intact.a Last year's team fell to a 6-7>. record and 13th in the New Eng-< lands in what proved to be a

good example of -a building sea-LU son. The loss of four outstandingZ wrestlers from the previous sea-u son dealt quite a blow to last

year's season, but the squadshould return to traditional formthis year.

The only graduation loss of aregulfr was that of Captain Mike

U Williams, who went 12-0-1 at 157Lu pounds. A sprained ankle in the,, last week of the season preventedI him from winning a nearly sure

New England championship, how-ever. There are returning regu-lars at every other spot, led bysenior captain Bob Wells, a two-year letterman at 167 pounds. Oth-er returning two-year lettermenare Tom McAuley at 123 and DonFredrickson. Also returning withletters are 130 pound Hal Hult-gren '66, 147 pound MarlandWhiteman '66, and heavyweightJohn Butler '65.

But the big boon for the squadis the addition of several sopho-mores from last year's freshmanteam which went 6-4 and tookthird in the New Englands. Espe-cially helpful will be freshmanNew England champ Bill Thilly,who will ably fill the vacant spotat 157 pounds. Also a sure winnerfor a varsity spot is undefeatedfreshman from New Englandchamp Dave Schramm at 177.Sophomores Larry Silverman,Brook Landis and Al Landers alsoappear to be sure winners forvarsity spots.

A recent vote by the New Eng-land Intercollegiate WrestlingAssn. has added the classes of152 and 191 pounds to the list,thus expanding it to ten. Thisshould serve to help the squad,since it is at these weights thatthe squad appears to be strongest.

Seven squash lettermenproduce bright outlookfor Tech racquet squad

The 1964-65 varsity squash sea-son will begin on Decemberfourth. The MvIT Racketmen willplay Pennsylvania in the after-noon and that evening drive toDartmouth to play the next day.

This year the squash team-should do well, with seven of lastyear's eight lettermen back. Theyare Ted Cruise, Captain TomGuillermo, Don Ward, Ken Co-mey, and Wayne Wilner, seniors,and Larry King and Alan Din-ner, juniors. The team featuresdepth and experience and shouldimprove their win record con-siderably.

In the past, the squash team'srecord has not looked good be-cause MIT competes with severalof the top teams in the country,including Harvard, Yale, andPrinceton. Last year, for exam-ple, despite a 3-9 record, thesquad was ranked 11th in the na-tion, because their losses cameagainst teams ranked in the topten, indicative of the competitionfaced. However, this year theteam is strong enough to beatsome of these top teams. Watchfor a victory over Dartmouth De-cember 5.

Cage seasonWith the loss of Jack Moter '64 and Bill Eagleson '64 by

graduation route, this year's varsity basketball team has twooffensive holes to plug. Both Moter and Eagleson scored overpoints last season and led. on the boards as the Engineers stonto a 16-8 record. Eagleson also set a career scoring record of 1058his three years on the varsity. This one-two punch will be milgreatly this year.

The cagers traditionally set up the shots rather than playfast break, hit and miss brand of basketball. Over the last ttyears, the varsity has averaged over 40% accuracy from the fiDue to last year's potent offense, they averaged 64 points a g/to their opponents 56, and won their first five in a row.

Burton A raised its record to3-1 with a 47-32 conquest of AlphaTau Omega A. A scoring trian-gle composed of Johnm Hoffmeister'66 with 13 points, Jon Schafer'65 with 10 poits, and Bill Pe-trick '65 with 10 points was thekey to the Burton victory. Tedefeat left ATO with an unenvia-ble 04 record.

Last year'scaptain, Bill Brody '65, has avarsity and 20 yard record in the200 yard butterfly and 160 yardindividual with times of 2:21.9 and1:50.0 respectively. Captain CashPeacock '65 and Frank Mechura'65 each set 20 yard pool marksin the 200 yard breaststroke at2:30.0 and 200 yard backstroke at2:19.4. These four, Mechura, Pea-cock, Brody and St. Peters, lshare the 400 yard medley relayvarsity record.

The two important newcomersthis year are Sandy Blanchard '65and Mike Crane '67. Blanchard,holder of the 100 yard freestylewith 52.8 seconds, is back thisyear after missing last year'sseason because of Co-op. Timewill tell if his one year layoffhas hurt him. Crane, who unoffi-cially beat the varsity 50 yardfreestyle last year as a freshmanwith a 23.5, will try again toemulate his unofficial record. Ev-ery event seems fairly strong, ex-cept diving. Suffering the loss ofcne of last year's divers, theteam's remaining one, and a verygood one at that, is Steve Snover'65. Snover rarely failed to gaina first place. for the team duringlast year's season..

Eric Jensen '65 and Dick Brein-linger '66 will fill in for the otherevents. Jensen will most likelyswim the 200 yard individual med-ley, 200 yard backstroke and 500yard' free. Breinlinger, sharer ofthe varsity 400 yard freestyle re-lay record, will serve as a 50yard and 100 yard freestyle sprint-er. The team's schedule will cul-minate at the NEISA (Champion-ships, this year to be held at theMIT Alumni Pool.
