In the past it has aidedrefugee students in countriesravaged by war or national disasters; countries such as SouthAfrica, Angola, and Red China,where studentS' are fleeing. TheWUS provides food and housingwhere none exists. Health clinicshave been built at colleges fromChili to Hong Kong. All in all,the WUS helps students in 60countries and deserves our support.
To put it bluntly, these charities need our help in order tocontinue their work in helpingothers. Therefore we hope thatyou will give whatever you can,to help others.
will change two images, the'image of the electric car as a fantasy, and the image of the college student as blindly strikingout against the establishment.These' goals reveal Wally as aperson who is very aware of thecontext in which he is workingand living.
The rules of the Great Racewere set up in the hopes thatthe winning car would be thebest in terms of public use. Thel'ules ar'e as follows':
1. The component value of theprototype car "hould be no morethan $5,000. From this figure,the production cost can drop toa figure which compares withthe cost of a gas engine car.
2. The charging system mustbe a part of the car and mustuse National grid power Le. theexisting power companies tocharge up. No animal power mayte used unless the competitor iswilling to acc,ept the penalty forthis.
3. The driver is defined asmmeone who is in the vehicle atthe start and finish of the raceand who travels either in the caror on foot from start to finish.
4. The competitors must followthe state traffic regulations.
5. The cars must pass the statesafety requirements.

Charities Drive Beginsby Nick Smith
ASCIT Rep.-at·LargeThe ASCIT Charities Drive is
now starting. It is late, but therereally is one. There are threecharities in vol v e d: WestsideStudy Center, Multiple Sclerosis,and the World University Service.
You have heard a lot aboutthe Westside Study Center andits job training and tutoring programs in the past, and you willhear more about it later. Wewill not dwell on that now, butit is important, for Westsidehelps people who want to helpthemselves.
The Multiple Sclerosis Societydoes research on the causes andcures of this disease which cripples young men and women.Again, we will not dwell on this.

There are' many reasons behind Wally's decision to workon an electric car and to racethis car. He and others believethat this kind of car has tremendous potential for solving theair pollution problem. He' alsofeels that this car will accelerate the transition from steamto atomic power plants, and thatthe car is very economical sinceit has fewer moving parts thana gas engine.
The race with MIT, and now,possibly with England will accomplish several goals. Wallydoes not want to be the builder01' this car. He hopes to get morestudents interested in this project so that he will be a member of a group which is workingtowards a common goal. Hope",ully, this work will promotestudent interest in the development of batteries and in electro·chemistry and related fields. Inthis way, students will developthe theoretical tools which industry needs but hides from itscompetitors through patents.Wally also hopes that this work
charger must be developed andmust be perfected. Caltech students must team up to solvethese great problems in time forthe Great Race.
Blood Drive SoonThe annual Bloodmobile Drive
will be held on Friday, April 19,from 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. inDabney Lounge. Sign-up slipswill be distributed to all staffmembers and students. There isa great need for whole blood(or plasma) as evidenced by thelarge number of requests processed since the last Blood Bankwas held here a year ago. It istherefore essential that we replenish our supply at this time.There is also a great need expressed by the Red Cross to replenish their supply used as aresult of the war in Vietnam.
Over the past sevedal yearsthe phenomenal pop u 1a t iongrowth of the greater Los Angeles area - along with increasedproduction and economic expansion - has brought with it an increase in community responsibilities which must be sharedby us all.
Among the more vital community services to experience anever-increasing demand has beenthe Red Cross Blood Program.As population figures becamelarger, the calls' for blood became greater. To accommodatethe growing patient load, hospitals were expanded and new onesbuilt - and blood began to beused rountinely with almostevery operation.
And along with meeting theneeds of a mushrooming population, more pressures were addedwith each discovery of a newuse for blood.Cure·all
Blood derivatives were unheard of 15 years ago. Today RedCross has seven available forthe tre'atment of anemia, hemophilia, nephrosis, hemorrhage,shock, burns, and smallpox vaccination complications.

The Caltech vs MIT race iscommon knowledge, but howabout Caltech vs Britain? Britishbuilders of electric cars are be·Lg prompted by the British Engineuing Magazine to enter theelectric car race.
On March 26, an electric carmeeting occurred. At this meeting, Wally Rippel explained thedesign of the car's engine, thepurposes and rules of the race,and some exciting research whichmLlst be done in order to perfect the car. This engine is acomplete unit as opposed to theMIT engine which is four unitsbuilt into the wheels. The engineis a D.C. engine, weighs 220pounds and has about 20 h.p.The new batteries arrived recently and must be tested for performance.
Tte car was built with theL:ea that the first electric carswon't have D.C. charging stations, so they must be able toplug into existing A.C. outlets.The existing chargers, if theyare adequate, would weigh entirely too much, so a newcharger must be developed, andmust be a part of the engine.In addition, the control system

Actually, this guise of conservative anonymity is deceiving,for the vitality of the studentlight rests in its dedication tothe democratic process. Studentpower for conservatives does notentail the leftist course or directand militant social interventionregardless of law and order. Itinvolves instead power gainedand administration t h r 0 ughaccepted formulas as establishedstructures - student government,for instance, and national student organizations such as theYoung Americans for Freedom.
So while the leftists picket,agitate, and alienate, the studentconservatives try to pack thepolls and churn out the vote. It'sa simple, direct process, almostmechanical in fact. But that,after all, is how election are won- and campus conservatives areout to win CHOICE 68.
Their chances of doing so arenot as minimal as some liberalswould like to believe. For thepolitics of the right today aremore the politics of charismathan any other political wingon the American scene. In '64 itwas Barry Goldwater who hypnotically s way e d campus con·,

by Roger GoodmanAt the .invitation of the Caltech
YMCA, Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy(D.Minn.), candidate' for thepresidency, will speak here tomorrow morning at 10:00 on theOlive Walk in front of Winnett.This is his first appearance inthe Los Angeles area since Tuesday's Wisconsin Democratic primary, in which McCarthy garnered over 50 percent of the vote,though Sen. Robert F. Kennedy(D-N.Y.) was not on the ballot.
Supporters may greet McCarthy at 8:30 at the Burbankairport, where he will arrive on
Senotor McCorth, to Speoka PSA flight from San Francisco.After a press conference there,he will proceed to the campus.
In case of rain, the talk willbe moved to Beckman. Dr.DuBridge has released all employees from 10:00 to 11:00. Anumber of students from othercolleges is expected to come, because of McCarthy's limitedspeaking schedule.
His visit was made possibleby much effort on the part ofthe Caltech Y. For a while, itwas not definite that he couldcome, and his talk here is subject to last-minute changes.

Howsoever, back to the immortal question, "Why?" Howcan they think with that noise?The answer is obvious. . . theycan't. In fact the real reasonthat many of the undergradsseek all-pervading sound in theirliveS' is to avoid those awkwardsilences which often turn tointrospection. Afraid of themselves, or of what they mightdiscover about themselves, thenoise-lover immerses himself inlOUd music, yelling, and similarsounds to save himself from thefate of discovering what hereally is.
Choice '68:Johnson Evasive
President Johnson has declined a request by the ExecutiveOffice of CHOICE 68 to commenton the primary's three referendum questions. The President'sAssistant Press Secretary, W.Thomas Johnson, explained that"Since the President is not anannounced candidate, we havesome questions about the propriety of hiS' making the statement that you request."
Two of the referenda deal withthe country's current involvement in Vietnam, and one withthe priorities of governmentspending in confronting the"urban crisis."
The President did, however,express support for the CHOICE'68 project. "I hope the publicservice TIME is performing," hesaid, "will really be one - because if there is one thing disappointing to me about youngpeople, it is that they don't useall the opportunities availableto them to make their government a better government."
He cited the fact that "youngpeople have a smaller percentage of those who are eligibleto vote actually voting than anyother age group."
"In 1964," he continued, "onlyhalf the young people took thetrouble to expresS' themselveswhen they had that opportunity.It ought not to be that way.Those who are going to live thelongest and be most affected bythe government, for a longerperiod, really have more atstake."

by LewinA few Sundays ago I was
walking down the Arroyo Seco,north of JPL, listening to thechurning-gurgling of the watersswelled by recent rains. MyeS'cape to these sylvan gladeslasted only a few hours, but thequiet and peace imparted by thestill, calm wilderness lasted mefor only a short while after myreturn to campus. Later that dayI wandered through the studenthouses, on what must have beena masochistic impulse, and wasonce again assaulted by the verything which caused me to fleethose hallowed walls . . . noise,noise in unbelievable quantities.
Why do the undergrads hereinsist on living in decibel levelsfar and above that found in theaverage foundry? Well, onereason harks back to the structure of student life at Caltech.The undergraduate society atthis institution is essentially aprimitive tribal culture. Like theSioux, the students pride themselves on their ability to bearpain and discomfort, and on theirtalent of inflicting pain to others.The most easily generated sourceof discomfort available to theundergrad is a stereo system..Contrary to popular belief, theaverage student here does notenjoy music, but is a memberof the Society of the Snake, amystic order devoted to self~
Vote Yes on By-law Cha,ngeIn the recent ASCIT elections, an amendment to the ASCIT
By-laws involving the commission paid on national advertisingonly in this paper was defeated by the student body. Undoubtedly, the major reason for this amendment's defeat was a lackof understanding on the part of the student body. Next Tuesday, the student body will again be called upon to vote on asimilar amendment. The amendment would change the Bylaws involving the advertising commission on national advertising payable by the Tech from the present 35 percent to 40 percent. Now, you ask, exactly what does this mean and why is itnecessary?
Let us take a company who wishes to place $100.00 worthof advertising in the California Tech. This company first goesto its own advertising agency, which then goes to the NationalAdvertising Services (NEAS) to request a placement of the adwithin these hallowed pages. After the company's own advertising agency has extracted its commission, the original $100.00has dwindled to $83.30, which is passed on to NEAS. NEAS,which is the ONLY national agency serving colleges, then extractsits own commission and passes the ad copy and the rest of themoney, which is at present $66.64, on to the California TechThe business manager then takes a commission of $1.64, whichleaves the Tech with $65.00 of the original $100.00, or a totaladvertising commission paid of 35 %. This is perfectly acceptable under the present By-laws.
However, starting next September, the NEAS is raising itsown commission. Thus, instead of receiving $66.64 for a $100.00advertisement, the Tech will be receiving only $62.47. Underthe present By-laws, this is unacceptable since the commissionis limited to only 35 percent. Thus, unless the allowable commission on national advertising is increased to 40 percent theTech would be unable to accept any national advertising fromthe NEAS. Whether you realize it or not, it is the national advertising which supports this paper. Without it, the Tech wouldbe unable to support itself financially, and the printing of thispaper would certanly have to be reduced, if not stopped altogether. We, the editors of the California Tech certainly wouldnot like such an event to come to pass. Nor, we believe, woulda majority of Teckers. Thus, we ask your support to enable usto continue our efforts to provide you, the student body, with anewspaper. Hopefully, you will think it is a good newspaper.Vote "Yes" on the upocming amendment to the By-laws.

In modern times, however, the material is hilariouslyfunny; and it was taken full advantage of by Allan Lorie, whoread the roll of a rather stout,coarse commoner with highaspirations both as to women andto social prestige Bon n i eFranklin, as a seventeen yearold "ward" of the commoner whofalls in love with Harold Stassen,too did a fine job as did BretAdams who read the part ofBernard. Maurice Hill was asnoble as nobility can be as theLord Chicham; and Miss OliveDunbar as narrator increased thehumor in many scenes merelyby raising an eyebrow.
The adaptions of the twoworks were both very good, andMiss Diana Maddox who adaptedthem as well as directing theproduction certainly should bepraised for shortening the worksin such a manner that not onlywere they short enough for aproduction of this sort, but theystill managed to capture all ofthe flavor of the originals.

of Through the Looking Glass,and the manner of characterization appeared to this reviewer tobe almost identical with that employed in the' movie. Perhaps theonly fault one could find withthis section of the performancewas that the narration at timesslowed the progress of the storytoo much, and one became anxious for the narration to end.
What little fault there was inthe first half of the performance,however, was more than madeup for the Groups' interpretation of Daisy Ashford's novel,The Young Visiters, which con-'stituted the second half of theprogam. As' perhaps could be deduced from the misspelling inthe title of the work, Miss Ashford was not a very capable speller when she produced the workin th2 1890's. As a matter of fact,she was only nine years old atthe time.

The first half of the programconsisted of Lewis Carroll's famous story, Throngh the LookingGlass, which was narrated byBret Adams. Although startingrather slowly, the readers soongathered up the audience in theembrace of Mr. Carroll's classicfantasy.

After Caltechwon the medley relay, things proceeded to go downhill as Oxytook first and second in the 1000and first and third in the 200 toeven the score. Henry DeWitt

One of Caltech's finest athletesadded another achievement to hisillustrious Beaver sport career.John Frazzini went 5 for 5 inthe last game of the previousterm Coach Priesler commentedon the fact, "This is one ofJohn's finest performances inbaseball here at Tech. Also thisis the best batting performancethat anyone at Tech has everhad. His timely hits helped usto victory."
Four of Caltech's swimmersgave up part of the past vacationto represent Caltech at nationalswimming meets and produceda seventh place finish at theNAIA nationals. Henry DeWittsuccessfully defended his championships won last year, whileGregg Wright gained 3rd and 4thplace finishes in the 100 and 200yard backstroke events. Wrightalso gained 9th place in the 2001M and Mabry Tyson won 10thplace in the 100 yard breaststroke. The three teamed withMaarten Kalisvaart to produceplaces and new school records inthe 400 free relay, (3:26.0, 8th)and the 400 Medley relay, (3:49.0,4th)
Dut to the nature of the pool,slow for freestyle swimmers, DeWitt did not equal his recordsetting times of last year in the50 and 100 yard freestyle; butKalisvaart, who did not place,did succeed in improving hispersonal best times in thoseevents, with 23.5 and 52.2 respectively. Wright lowered allthree of his' standards in hisevents with 57.8 in the 100 back,2:07.5 in the 200 back, and 2:10.2in the 200 1M. Tyson lowered DeWitt's 100 breastroke record byneary 2 seconds to 1:05.1.

Foster, and Bill Singer are pitching stars of the f'uture. Pittsburg's all-star infield, and RoLerto Clemente should be enoughto lift the Pirates into thirdplace. If the pitching holds up,who knows? The San FranciscoGiants have been hitting .315this spring. Combine this withfour pitchers capable of beingtwenty game winners, and WillieMays and what have you got? Ateam that consistantly managesnot to win the pennant. Thatleaves 81. Louis. Despite injuries,the draft, and numerous otherpossibilitie's, about the onlything that would keep the Cardsfrom repeating as championswould be Bob Gibson and Orlando Cepeda being assassinated.
Along the line of predictions,here are my guesses for the upcoming Interhouse basketballcampaign:

Sportsman's Cornerby Enenstein
With the coming of spring, aTech man's thoughts tun towardsbaseball? Speaking of our national pastime, it's again time' topick a winner for fun and profit.
The countdown in the NationalLeague begins with the NewYork Mets. Any questions? Inninth will be the Houston Astros.Houston has some fine youngpitchers and outfielders, and ifan infield materializes, theycould finish higher. With RichieAllen questionable, Philadelphiahas no reason to place higherthan eighth. A sick Rico Carty,an aging Henry Aaron, and aninconsistant pitching staff shouldkeep Atlanta in the second division. Falling to sixth this yearwill be the Chicago Cubs. KenHoltzman doesn't appear to havelast year's form, and at leasttheir previous year's performanc.
Cincinnatti will be the team towatch this year they couldfinish much higher or no lowerthan fifth place. Depending onteam morale, and the performance of an inexe'prienced pitching staff, the longshot Redscould even steal the pennant. Infourth place will be Los Angeles.(What me, prejudice? So whatif I live here!) The Dodgersmade some excellent trades thisWinter, and Vincente Romo, Alan
came in the third inning.
Claremont's King rapped asingle to left, advanced to secondon a wild pitch, and scored onan error by Helberg. Helbergled off the bottom half of thethird with a double; Chapyakwalked. Both runners advancedon a single by Savas, Beaglegrounded into a fielder's' choicedriving in Helberg. Chapyak thenscored what proved to be thewinning run on a long sacrificefly by Martin.
Tuesday's win almost has toencouage the Beaves who reallytook the short end last weekagainst Redlands. The Bulldogswhipped them three times inthree meetings, 14-7, 7-0, and14-6. The Beavers' next outingis a doubleheader at Claremontthis Saturday.

The Stags drew first blood byscoring one run in the first inning on t h r e e back-ta-backsingles. Caltech struck back inthe bottom half of the first bytaking advantage of three walksand a wild pitch to score onerun. All the rest of the scoring

The overall 6-3 score was aconsiderable improvement fromCaltech's last 8-1 encounter withClaremont-Mudd, who obviouslyis endowed with a fine tennisteam this season.
It's making the point that youcan own an Oldsmobile. If nota new one, then certainly aused one.

Last Saturday, outstanding performanC€s by two of the members of the Caltech tennis teamfoiled Claremont-Mudd's hopesfor a rout on Caltech homecourts.
The two players referred toare not top-ranked varsity players: as a matter of fact, theyare ranked fifth and sixth man,the lowest positions on the team.Nevertheless, Greg Evans andMartin Frost showed that thequality of the higher-rankedplayers is in no way the governing factor in deciding the overall quality of a team, but ratherthat overall quality is also determined by the caliber of themen ranked lower on the ladder.
Frost and Evans' individualwins in the singles division, andtheir combined win in doublesmeant the difference betweena possible 9-0 rout, which didnot occur, and a reasonable 6-3match, which did occur.
In the upper division, PeteYoutz lost a well-contested 4-6,6-2, 6-3 battle, Roger Davidheiserwas downed 6-1, 6-1, John Healysuccumbed 6-3, 6-2, and GuyDuesdieker was' vanquished 6-3,6-2. Doubles scores were lessencouraging, as Youtz and Duesdieker were annihilated 6-1, 6-1,and Healy and Davidheiser weretrounced 6-2, 6-0.
