"The [small] budget has hurt us in two areas: facilities and staff. In the first area, we have a library without books, an aviation program where students are mak- ing paper airplanes because there's no other equipment, and a computer science program without computers." Russell further noted that the- Boston School Department's "formula" system for assigning faculty, which yields a specific number of teachers based on the number of students enrolled, was insufficient for the Harbor School because of the nature of its program. "By the formula, we get enough of Science & Technology in East Boston, MIT's "magnet- SCHOOL d ifficulties. teachers to run a regular program, but it's not enough for the technical studies we offer as well. As a result, the teachers we have heave to teach computer science subjects as well as the math they were hired for," he ex- plained. Despite the budget difficulties, over fifty M IT students and faculty members have been work- ing closely with the new school and the community, both as teachers and program coor- dinators. Five MIT student interns spent this summer in planning for the school's opening, screening faculty and selecting student tutors. Two, Milton Roye '78 and Deborah Cohen '78, are interning this fall. In addition, the Htrbor School features an innovative mathematics teaching program designed by MIT physics profes- sor Alan Natapoff. Although the budget is tight, many parents have expressed great satisfaction with the school, Roye said. The problem, according to Russell, is that "a lot of kids are wondering about the promises they were given about the program. It'll be a long time before we'll get all the equipment we need, but I think our problems will be solved with cooperation from the city and state school departnments. It's just a matter of how long it takes-nobody's got the money right now." Professor of Chemical Engineering Robert C.

ing broke up the attempts to steal

two cars being conducted at the

same time by two men in the 48

lot. The pair was chased some dis-

tance but managed to escape in

the area of the Sterritt Lumber

Company.

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

found the car to have been broken

into and ransacked. The thief had

rendered the vehicle's electrical

system inoperative but the igni-

tion was left untouched.

Nothing of value had been kept

in the car by the owner; the con-

tents Of the glove compartment

and a briefcase were left intact.

Wallet Theft in SalaA student attending the

Midnight Movie in the Sala dePuerto Rtico SatUrday eveningdiscovered her wallet missingfromn her handbag when she leftabout two hours later. The victimhas no idea who might havestolen the wallet, which containedpersonal papers and about $10cash.

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.
