By David KoretzOver one hundred students
went without food for twenty-four hours and hundreds moresampled vegetarian fare in thedining halls to highlight a week-long program intended to call at-tention to the conditions of theworld poor. The effort wasorganized by Oxfam-America, adivision of a relief and develop-ment agency founded in GreatBritain in 1942. The MIT Fast fora World Harvest was coordinatedby Joan Conway, a graduate stu-dent in nutrition.
Conway explained that the fastwas intended to make studentsconscious of the food crisis inThird World countries by causingthem to experience hunger, ironlyon a small scale.
Students were asked to fastfrom 6pm Wednesday until 6pmThursday and donate to Oxfam-America the estimated cost of themeals missed.
Eight people had signed up tofast by Wednesday afternoon,and ''somewhere between twentyand fifty*' resi dents of BakerHouse and various fraternitieswere to add their moneyafterwards. "The average dona-tion is about two or three dol-lars,'' Conway noted.
Another option, intended forpeople who felt that they couldn'tfast, was the vegetarian meals of-
ifered by the dining service onThursday. Lunch incl uded aspinach quiche, and the dinner of-fering was a cheese and walnutball in becharnel sauce.
Conway also encouragred peo-ple to "take a friend to lunch; thatis, donate the cost of their lunchl.'She added that, "Any donationsare welcom e. We had hoped toreach $300 here, and I guess we

By Glennl BrownsteinAlthough a serious budget
problem has limited the extent ofits program, the Mario UmanaHarbor School of Science andTechnology, MIT's "magnet"school in the Boston Phase 11desegregation plan, opened onschedile for the fall term.
Community opposition to turn-ing East Boston High into the"magnet" facility set off-the chainof events that has led to thefunding shortage at the newschool.
A May 1976 Federal DistrictCourt order, attempting to solvethe community roadblock, placedthe new school, intended forgrades 7-12, in the then under-construction Barnes MiddleSchool building, designed forgrades 6-8. The judicial decision,however, made no provision for abudget increase for the school,forcing the Harbor School tobegin a four and soon to be six-year technical high schoolprogram with only a middleschool budget.
MIT, the Wentworth Instituteof Technology, and the Mas-sachusetts Port Authority, theHarbor School's partners in the"magnet" plan, have spent nearlya year designing the school'stechnology-intensive curriculum,but the money shortage hascaused cutbacks in its implemen-tation.

Mario Umana Harbor Schoolopens on time despite budgetaryBoston school, explained some ofthe problems the school faces."The [small] budget has hurt us intwo areas: facilities and staff. Inthe first area, we have a librarywithout books, an aviationprogram where students are mak-ing paper airplanes becausethere's no other equipment, and acomputer science programwithout computers."
Russell further noted that the-Boston School Department's"formula" system for assigningfaculty, which yields a specificnumber of teachers based on thenumber of students enrolled, wasinsufficient for the Harbor Schoolbecause of the nature of itsprogram.
"By the formula, we get enough
of Science & Technology in East Boston, MIT's "magnet- SCHOOLd ifficulties.teachers to run a regularprogram, but it's not enough forthe technical studies we offer aswell. As a result, the teachers we
have heave to teach computerscience subjects as well as themath they were hired for," he ex-plained.
Despite the budget difficulties,over fifty M IT students andfaculty members have been work-ing closely with the new schooland the community, both asteachers and program coor-dinators.
Five MIT student interns spentthis summer in planning for theschool's opening, screeningfaculty and selecting studenttutors. Two, Milton Roye '78 andDeborah Cohen '78, are interning
this fall. In addition, the HtrborSchool features an innovativemathematics teaching programdesigned by MIT physics profes-sor Alan Natapoff.
Although the budget is tight,many parents have expressedgreat satisfaction with the school,Roye said.
The problem, according toRussell, is that "a lot of kids arewondering about the promisesthey were given about theprogram. It'll be a long timebefore we'll get all the equipmentwe need, but I think our problemswill be solved with cooperationfrom the city and state schooldepartnments. It's just a matter of
how long it takes-nobody's gotthe money right now."
Professor of ChemicalEngineering Robert C. Reid'54 has been named recipientof the Warren K. -Leis Awardfor Contributions to ChemicalEngineering Education by theAmerican Institute ofChemical Engineers (AlChE).The award - named for thefirst head of the MIT Depart-ment of Cliemical Engineering- will be presented during theAlChE annual meeting whichbegins Nov. 28 in Chicago.
The Massachusetts LaborRelations Commission is cur-rently holding hearings toresolve a dispute between theUniversity of Massachusettsand the Graduate StudentEmployees Union there overwhether the graduate studentsare employees with collectivebargaining rights.

an offshoot of the British agency

one of the smallest, now has a

Mitchell emphasized that "Ox-fam does not carry out programson behalf of others.

Victim Recovers MoneyA Main Complex Staff member
looked up from her desk not long
ago and found, looking around
her office a stranger who didn't
quite look as if he "belonged."
Inquiring as to whether she
could be of assistance, he asked
the time and then left; at which
point she checked her handbag
and found $20 missing therefrom.
Running cut into the corridor,
she stopped the fellow and con-
fronted him, asking where he
worked and the names of fellow
workers. He was unable to answer
any of the questions.
She then told him the money
was missing and denanded its
return'. He offered her $5, but she
insisted upon getting back all of
it.He finally handed over all S20,
and left in the direction of 77
Mass. Ave.
Thle subject, described as about
twenty years old, 5'10', very thin
and wearing a long black coat was
seen sometime later by a witness.
The subject was hitchhiking
across the Harvard Bridge into
Boston .
Car Vandalized on DriveA student returning after a
three day absence to his 1967
Cadillac left on Memorial Drive
in front of MacGregor House

By Glenn BrownsteinOne of MIT's finest basketball
players returned to CambridgeTuesday night in uniform - butnot that of MIT. Peter Jackson'76, the Engineers' all-timeleading career rebounder, came toHarvard with his new teammatesfrom Team Fiat of Coventry,England, a British professionalbasketball club, and helped leadthem to an 88-85 win over theCrimson.
Jackson, one of two Americanssigned by the Engilsh pro teamover the summer, scored 17 pointsand garnered 11 rebounds in thecontest, while countrymateDarnell Harrell, fromSouthwestern Missouri College,starred with 38 points for Fiat.
Although the number on hisback was different (he wearsnumber 8 for Team Fiat, not thie13 he played in at MIT), and theuniform was red instead ofmaroon, Jackson showed the par-tisan crowd -of 200 his manybasketball talents, including hiscelebrated leaping ability. Only6a4", he nonetheless blocked fourshots and kept Harvard forwardBob Hooft UWay from the basketfor most of the game.
Jackson and the rest of TeamFiat appeared tight in the con-
test's opening minutes, fallingbehind 16-6 before the hotshooting of Harrell and Jackson'srebounding pulled the Englishpros ahead late in the half, anedge they maintained the rest ofthe way.
Other standouts for Fiat in-cluded forward Phil Hield, whoscored five consecutive layups in'the second half to open up a nine-point Fiat lead at one juncture,and playmaker Robin Hall. Har-vard's Jonas Honick and SteveIrion led a balanced Crimsonscoring attack with 19 pointseach. Jeff Hill tallied 14 andcenter Roosevelt Cox added 13for the losers.
Jackson, long appreciated byMIT basketball fans, is receivingthe same kind of acclaimoverseas. "They love the way hejumps," said Team Fiat'smanager, Terry Donovan. "Wesend him up to jump centeragainst players six inches tallerand we know he's going to winthe tap, although his opponentsdon't. The crowd really ap-preciates him in England."
Impressively enough, MIT'sleading rebounder is currently theEnglish National Leagu-e'sleading rebounder as well.Jackson is averaging over 12
-rC:
rebounds for Fiat, 4-3 in the ten-team league thus far.
The English basketballersstarted off a two-week tour of theEast Coast with the Harvard vic-tory, and will face several collegesquads on the junket, includingURI, Lafayette, Towson State(Md.), Morgan State, William &Mary, and Vermont.
But while Team Fiat will playin a lot of gyms in places likeKingston, RI, and Williamsburg,Va., Tuesday night was PeterJackson's homecoming, a chanceto show the rest of Cambridge thekind of talent MIT fans knewabout all along. The fact that heleft few doubters made it a verygood night for all concerned, es-pecially Jackson.

By Chris D)onnellyThe varsity sailing team closed
its fall season with an eighth placefinish in the Atlantic CoastDinghy Chamnpionship for theFiske-Harriman-Sleigh Trophylast weekend at King's Point.
The regatta attracted the topsix schools from each of the NewEngland and the Middle Atlanticregions. M IT qualified for thechampionship by finishing secondin the New England Cham-pionships at the end of October.Twelve races were sailed duringthe two day event; six races inInterclubs and six in 420's.
Gary Smith '78 and Elliot Ros-sen '79 skippered in A-Division,while Bill Critch '77 and LennyDolhert 79 were B-Division skip-pers. Crews included JordanKriedberg '79, Sally Huested '78,and Diana Healy '78.
The Engineers had a few brightmoments, but were never really inthe running for the cham-pionship. blew York Maritimetopped the 12-school field, fol-
lowed by Yale and Harvard.Despite their final perfor-
mance, the team had a relativelysuccessful fall season. Highlightsinclude a second in the NewEngland Sloop Championships, asecond in the New EnglandDinghy Championships, andseveral invitational regatta vic-tories.
With the experience of the fallseason behind them, the sailorshave an excellent shot-at beingamong the top schools in themore important spring season.
