McBay,By Anu Vedantham

Dean for Student Affairs Shir-ley M. McBay and Chairman ofthe Committee on UndergraduateAdmissions and Financial AidKenneth R. Manning cancelledtheir scheduled appearance on apanel on black admissions policyafter learning that the discussionwas open to the public, accordingto John B. Turner, assistant pro-vost and associate dean of thegraduate school.

Joyce T. Gibson, director ofthe Office of Minority Education,also cancelled her scheduled ap-

SS votevided among five categories: Cul-tures and Societies; HistoricalStudies; Literary and TextualStudies; Mind, Thought, andValue; the Arts.

Petitioners: Don't cutcourse offerings

pearance at Thursday's BlackGraduate Student Association'sbiannual forum, citing a previouscommitment.

McBay and Manning givereasons for absence

McBay explained, "I had theimpression that it was an infor-mal discussion with the BlackGraduate Student Associationabout issues facing blacks atMIT,. . . not a panel on a specificquestion.... I don't thinkenough research has been 'done toanswer the question of 'Whoshould be at MIT' for any par-ticular student group."

Manning said, 'I must havemisunderstood John Turner . . .This discussion and the way theforum has been set up, I feel, arenot the kind of thing the chair-man of CUAFA [Committee onUndergraduate Admissions andFinancial Aid] should be involvedin. I think the format is unfor-tunate," he -continued.

"I usually consult very heavilywith the admissions office," Man-ning added. The format [of theforum] was not appropriate foran official representative of theadmissions office, he said. Andthere has not been enough re-search, he added.

Turner moderated Thursday'sdiscussion. James H. Williams'67; professor of mechanical en-gineering, and Frank S. Jones,professor of urban affairs, werethe only two panelists present.

The speakers and the audience

of about 100 resented the cancel-lations. Williams said, "Suchlast-minute cancellations are verydisappointing, but very charac-teristic of MIT. . . and its frag-mented black community."

Jones outlines performancedisparity; cites Hassan study,

Jones cited a 1981 study con-ducted by former MIT AssistantProfessor of Urban Studies andPlanning Hassan Minor, whichfound the dropout rate for blacksto be 27 percent compared to a15 percent rate for MIT overall.

"We should pay more attentionto the blacks that are droppingout or considering it.... Weneed to create positive develop-mental conditions," Jones said.

MIT uses a scholastic index of1-100 and a personal index of 1-10 to rate undergraduate appli-cants, Jones said. Minor's studyfound that accepted blacks had ascholastic index average between20 and 39 while the-MIT overallscholastic index average lies be-tween 70 and 89. The study alsofound that black students have aC average at MI1T compared to aB average for MIl students over-all.

"I say to [Director of Admis-sions Michael C. Behnke]: Pleasedo not admit anybody to thecampus who, in your opinion,does not have the tools to getthrough -. it is very cruel,"Jones continued.

About ten faculty membersand 50 students from various de-partments discussed the proposedchanges at the humanities depart-ment's social hour Friday after-noon. The discussion, which last-ed nearly three hours, dividedboth students and faculty.

The proposed changes, whichfollow two and a half years ofdebate on reform of the HASScurriculum, would eliminate thepresent system of 156 distributionsubjects from 22 fields, and re-place it with about 50 subjects di-

"Why is it useful to cut thenumber of courses once you'vecut the [number of] categories,"one student asked. She and otheropponents of the proposal arguedthat reducing the number of dis-tribution subjects would stifle in-dividual interests by decreasingthe variety of options.

Furthermore, they argued, a re-duction in the number of distri-bution subjects would lead to un-desirably large classes. Butsupporters of the plan counteredthat subjects with. large. enroU-

Fernandez noted that he wasarrested on trespassing chargeswithout even being asked to leavethe premises.

M IT hosts fLFeature

By Andrew L. FishThe Harvard Cooperative Society (The Coop) is planning to open its new store in Kendall Square on

May 4, according to James A. Argeros, president of the Coop. The Coop has begun moving out of itscurrent lcoation in the Student Center, and it will close the Student Center store on May 16.

The MIT Coop at Kendall Square will feature a "fast food" court with both indoor and outdoor seating,a barber shop, a tailor, and an expanded line of merchandise, Argeros said.

The new Kendall Square Coop, which occupies the first floor and basement of Three Kendall Square, isabout one and a half times the size of the current Tech Coop. It was designed by Boston Properties for theCambridge Redevelopment Commission and stands at the entrance to the Kendall Square T Station.

Argeros said planning for the move to Kendall Square has been going on for some time. He noted that-the Coop had commissioned a market. study in July of 1984 which revealed that MIT was growing in thedirection of Kendall Square. He also noted that the current Coop was not being utilized by faculty andstaff; the Student Center Coop could not fulfill that function.

While the store design is "aesthetically pleasing" and "fits in to the total area," Argeros noted that it wasnot the most efficient design for a retail outlet. In particular, he said that the windowed store front limitedthe amount of space for hanging items.

The buzz of carpenters' saws was evident as workmen continue construction on the almost completedstore. To gain access to the new Coop, one currently has to travel over beams perched precariously overwet cement. The yet to be completed food court is currently a tunnel of exposed fixtures and spray oninsulation. The interior of the store, while basically finished, is marked with ladders protruding into theceiling and plastic covers lying Upon new furnishings. But one can easily look beyond the sawdust andwires and see the structure of the newest Coop.

The Coop will share a large public plaza with the adjacent Marriott Hotel, Argeros said. The large, red-and-white tiled area will be used as outdoor seating for the food court, and will also be used as merchan-dise space for pushcarts selling items such as flowers and fruit, Argeros said. Argeros also suggested thatthe plaza could be used by MIT performance groups and he envisioned it as the "hub" of the KendallSquare area.

Rodriguez said that The Coop may run a shuttle bus from the Stu-dent Center to the new Coop to serve students who are Purchasingtextbooks. But Argeros said no such bus would exist.

Rodriguez noted that the new Coop is not actually that much fur-ther away from students. "Ilf you think of walking fronm the'Instituteand not from Next House," the new store is only a ten minute walkaway, he noted.

Coop plans to keep Student Center store

Argeros said The Coop planned to keep a convienience store in theStudent Center.

But Steven D. Immerman, west Campus director of operations, saidthat while negotiations were underway with The Coop, they were inno way guaranteed space in the Student-Center after its imminent ren-ovations.

Rodriguez said the Coop Board of Directors wants to keep a storein the Student Center. He complained that some members of the MITadministration do not want The Coop to remain in the Student Cen-ter.

Currently, the Studernt Center rents which MIT wants The Coop topay are far too high, Rodriguez said. Members or other stores wouldhave to subsidize Student Center losses, he noted.

Rodriguez complained that by eliminating the Student Center oper-ation "we are scrapping our own store - we're the owners of it." Healso expressed concern that the Student Center would become a shop-ping mall.

Mark VirtuelThe Tech

The Kendall Square Coop will be backed by a "food court" corn-taining five or six merchants such as Uno's Pizzeria, Au Bon Pain,Taco Bell, Wendy's, and a yogurt store, Argeros said. The merchantswill occupy an enclosed row of stalls between the public plaza and theexisting parking garage. The food court would cater to the local work-force as well as the student population, Argeros said.

While negotiations are still under way with potential vendors, Ar-geros hoped that the first food court operations would be in place byJune or July and that all the spaces would be rented when the fallterm begins.

The Coop is also operating a three-chair barbershop between thefood court and the main store. Access to the main store can also beachieved from the food court.

The hIIT Coop at Kendall Square is painted in the MIT colors ofcardinal and gray. White, lavender, and slate blue are also a part ofthe store's coloring scheme. Furnishings are those of a typical depart-ment store, and the wall fixtures are designed to be easily changed toaccomodate different seasonal items, A4rgeros said.

The top floor of the store is devoted to rnen's and women's clothing, cosmetics and MIT insignia. Thesection for women has been greatly expanded in part due to conmplaints by female students'and to meet.thedemands of Kendall Square's largely clerical workforce, Argeros said.

The men's department will also be expanded - it will now contain suit and sport coats and an in-housetailor, Argeros said.

An escalator and elevator provide access to the lower level departments -electronics, sporting goods,records, prints, and books. All these areas will be stocked with larger quantities than are currently avail-able, Argeros said.

While the books department contains only slightly more floor space than the current store, its capacityfor books is substantially greater, Argeros said. This is due to efficient custom-made wood shelvings (whichdensely populate the department), Argeros said.

The records department will have a far greater selection of tapes and compact discs, Argeros said. It hasbeen designed to sell exclusively compact disks and tapes when vinyl records are no longer produced,Argeros said.

The new store also has improved delivery capacity, with an underground loading dock and perimeterstorage throughout the store.

The hours of the new Coop will be 9:15 am until at least 7 pm, Monday through Saturday, Argeros said.The store may eventually be open on Sundays, he added.

Argeros said the rebates to Coop members might be diminished in the short run because of initial ex-penses involed in the move. But in the long run Argeros said profits and thus rebates will be enhanced bythe move.

Argeros did not anticipate any drop in student business due to the move. He said the new store wouldgreatly benefit the MIT community, noting that The Coop at Kendall Square will become the second largestcampus bookstore in America (behind the Harvard Coop).

Undergraduate Associatation President Manuel A. Rodriguez '89, a member of the Coop Board of Di-rectors, said that the Kendall Square store would better serve the MIT community through improved quali-ty and quantity of merchandise. He also suggested that increases in nonmember business could help re-duce the prices for members.

The audience sat in silence. Itwas then that Old Man Hanrattybegan to cry inconsolably, as allthe times of sitting alone in thedarkness of that bar had returnedto haunt him.

Meanwhile, Harry was think-ing: We wander through our rela-tionships as if our lovers werecardboard figures. We spend ourdays and nights at work, obliv-ious to our growing children. Wewalk through life with our eyesclosed.

In the end, the bartender couldnot give Harry the money. Hesaid, "That's a fine story, youngman. But I'm afraid I'll have todisqualify you, as the old mandidn't wet his pants."

Harry nodded slowly andwatched the weeping man anddrank deeply from his mug. Andas he rose to leave, the bartendertouched his shoulder.

"You see, we only want happystories here," he said, wiping theburnished-wood counter clean,staring at the blank faces of theyoung people lined up at the bar."We only want funny stories here

"The day the time changed,"young Harry said, "two boysnamed Jim and Tom were wait-ing in the foyer for a movie thathad, unbeknownst to them, al-ready started."

Laughter rippled through thesmoky, beer-stale room. It wasgeek night at Houlihan's bar inSouthie. Tell the funniest geekstory, and you could win yourselffifty bucks.

"But for Jim and Tom,that discovery came at 4:40 pm,when the young French woman atthe door told them that they werelate, and that they should havebeen in the screening room withall the other laughing people anhour ago."

Earlier that night, two-timechamp Larry McDonough hadknocked the guys out with a sto-ry about some geeks who endedup driving a .U-Haul truck intothe Hyatt Regency, accidentlykilling Queen Elizabeth II.

The contest was usually decid-ed by the Hanratty test. Whoevercould get Old Man Hanratty topee in his pants from laughingcould take the money and run.

But that night, Old Man Han-ratty had only let out a guffaw, abelch, and that was that. The oldman's pants were as dry as theSahara Desert. In fact, he lookeddamned depressed.

"There were clues that could

have told them that somethingwas different in their lives, thatsomething had changed, some-thing as significant as time,"Harry said. "All the restaurantsin Harvard Square had mysteri-ously closed early. The owner ofa Chinese restaurant on EliotStreet had told them her placewould re-open for dinner in half-an-hour . ."

Harry took a sip of his beerand watched the crowd stare ex-pectantly back at him; This wasno way to get to know the folks.He had stepped into the smallpub because it was cold and rain-ing outside, and because the yel-low light emanating from thestained glass windows hadseemed inviting.

The problem was, young Harrywas a geek himself. How couldhe tell a derogatory tale about hisown kind?

"Earlier, their friends hadlooked at them curiously whenthey asked them if they wanted abite of lunch. The ticket-lady inthe theater had asked them in astrange way if they did, in fact,want to see the 3:40 show."

Old Man Hanratty lookeddown at the fine cracks in thewooden floor. No one was laugh-ing. They were all confused. All,except for Old Man Hanratty.

Harry said, "They had lost anhour of their lives, and theydidn't even know it. Now that'ssomething you might laughabout. Yeah, they're just geeks.But it's not just ignoring a time

story is more often expressedthrough unstated assumptionsand excluded facts rather thanovert opinion.

Let me first present my view asorganizer and participant in theMarch 6 protest. The rally wasformulated to focus on the inter-connectedness of the issues cur-rently addressed by several stu-dent groups. It emphasized howthese common ideals were in di-rect contradiction to the priori-ties of the MIT Corporation,which met that day.

This rally was an attempt tobuild intergroup co-operation. Itwas the culmination of a week of

events that the groups had jointlysponsored and organized. Theevents - the anti-Star Wars rally,Teaching Against Racism at MIT,A Discussion of Tenure Policywith David Noble, and the Rallyfor the Priorities of People - allpassed unreported in The Tech.

"Teaching Against Racism"was the first Institute-wide teach-in in many years with about 100professors participating. TheTech did not cover the talks normention that the event had oc-curred. David Noble discussedthe repeated incidence of politicalharassment of professors and stu-dents, of tenure denial for politi-cal beliefs, of the importance ofpublic control of public institu-tions. His analysis of the overtpolitics of the tenure process hasnot appearred in The Tech.

During the Friday rally, Steph-anie L. Cook '89 talked on "TheConnections of Sexism, Racism,and Classism at MIT." Bill Cavel-lini, chairman of the SimplexSteering Committee, gave an up-date on the community effort tothwart Simplex, and Jeff Cinapresented a synopsis of efforts bygovernment and industry in thecurrent bombing of El Salvador,the most intense bombing cam-paign in the history of the West-ern Hemisphere. Is this notnews?

This spectrum of issues has notbeen presented in one forum inseveral years. When I asked Fishafterwards why he did not coverthe speeches, he stated that theywere "not news." He may havemeant that the information wasnot new. Fish may possibly haveknown about the danger of PCBcontamination due to Simplexconstruction or about the firebombing of E1 Salvador. I doubtthat most of his readership does.

Fish may have also implied thatthe activist viewpoint was not

To the Editor:There is a subtle but pervasive

bias that exists in Tech articlesthat has gone long unquestioned.I would like to primarily addressthe misstatements in the newsanalysis by Andrew L. Fish '89["Protesters want broad appeal,"March 10] of the March 6 pro-test. Fish has for the past twoyears been one of The Tech's bet-ter reporters, but his analysislacked journalistic responsibility.

Like most reporters he tendedto report the news in a light morefavorable to his personal out-look: This subtle reshaping of a

man was being hassled.Sgt. James F. Baker Jr. briskly

approached me and asked me formy MIT ID. I told him that theCampus Police had taken myMIT ID away last spring when Iwas arrested at the shantytownon Kresge Oval. I told Baker thatif he wanted to see my MIT IDhe could go back to his head-quarters to look for it or hecould call up Chief James Oli-vier .

Baker asked me if 1 had anyidentification; I said no. Bakerthen arrested me for trespassingand handcuffed me. He neverasked me whether or not I was astudent and he did'not ask me toleave the premises before arrest-ing me.

Baker cited some legal proto-col but never read me my Mir-anda rights; he did state, howev-er, that I had the right to remainsilent, so I did, Baker walked meto a blue unmarked car whichhad been waiting on the sidewalkby the Student Center, and I wastaken straight to the Cambridge

To the Editor:This past year there were sever-

al instances of blatantly racist be-havior on college campusesthroughout the country Universi-ty administrations have a longhistory of neglecting minoritygrievances - this has led to suchracial confrontations. Althoughthere have not been blatant inci-dents of racism at MIT, there hasbeen a growing amount of racistbehavior on campus.

Last Thursday night, I was sit-ting in the Wiesner Art- Gallery inthe Student Center reading anddrinking a chocolate frappe. Be-hind one of the partitions there, Iheard some Camnipus Police offi-cers questioning someone. Beinga member of People Against Rac-ism, I feared that a minoritymight be getting hassled by theCampus Police (PAR has foundthat many minorities have suf-fered from police harassment). Iwent to see what was happening;I saw a white male being ques-tioned by the Campus Police.Next to him stood a woman Irecognized. I stayed to see if the

generosityTo the Editor:

We recently had an experiencewith MIT that we, as parents,found quite generous, unbeliev-able, and worthy of mention.

Our son, Darrin, a junior, be-came ill in November and wasadmitted to the infirmary. Heneeded surgery twice in Decem-ber and did not leave intensivecare until Dec. 20. We were reluc-tant to leave him to go back toWisconsin for Christmas, eventhough our three other childrenwere younger and also needed us.

This is when MIT surprised usand showed their true colors. As-sociate Dean for Student AffairsRobert M. Randolph, the head ofStudent Assistance Services, andMichael A. Kane, associate medi-cal director, arranged to fly ourother children out to be with us.Wee were housed, provided withfood, and even parking through-out the six week ordeal.

openly stated desire to be thenext democratic secretary of de-fense. Nor is it mentioned thatalthough he opposes the StrategicDefense Initiative, he supportsMIT's lobbying of Congress formore funds for the DOD for ba-sic research. Much of that moneywill be channeled through theSDI program.

The bias in The Tech needs tobe critically analyzed and read

through. Student activists areconcerned about the injusticethat exists in our world, and theyfeel an imperative to take actionto correct it. They work hard topresent arguments well thoughtout and substantiated in fact.Sadly the fine words of StephanieCook, Jeff Cina, and Bill Cavel-lini will never grace the pages ofthis tabloid.

Steven Penn G

(Continued from page 4)newsworthy. Too many peoplejust look and don't listen. It isjust another protest. They arebored and uneffected. Thoughtheir tax dollars pay for genocidein El Salvador and their affluenceis created from violent exploita-tion, they stand undaunted.

Instead Fish's analysis centeredon a growing rift between TheStudent, a paper put out by sup-porters of the Marxist-LeninistParty, and the members of theCoalition Against Apartheid, theScience Action CoordinatingCommittee, and People AgainstRacism. I will give my reason forthis schism.

The Student has for nearlythree years worked on issues ofsocial importance. Though thecauses they stress are in dire needof community action, The Stu-dent's actions are elitist. Theirtalk is didartic. Their actions areself-aggrandizing. They considerthere to be only two realms ofopinion, '6theirs" (the Marxist-Leninist Party line) and "not-theirs." Alternative opinions areconsidered irrational.

If one organizes a progressiveactivity on campus, then oneshould be prepared to have TheStudent popularize it as its event.The Studernt makes no effort totreat people with common decern-cy, thus ignoring the inherentworth of all people. This hypocri-sy is the root of the current split.For two years we have conductedopen meetings based on theideals of free speech, coopera-tion, and democracy. The Stu-dent's abuse of these principleshas created the break.

Fish reported that this rift was

an attempt by political groups togain the appeal of a broaderrange of MIT students. Both Fishand The Student maintain thatthe other groups were breakingwith the more "radical" factionand moderating their politics inorder to gain more support.

Contrary to this speculation,the politics of our groups haveshifted a little to the left in pastmonths. If our membership in-creases in the future, I am confi-dent that these new people will beold members, once alienated byThe Student, who will be gettinginvolved again.

The application of the label"radical" to The Student is a mis-nomer. The Tech uses "radical"to categorize political opinionoutside of the mainstream. A si-zeable fraction of the members ofour groups are more left thanThe Student. The use of "radi-cal" tends to blur distinctions anddeemphasize varied viewpoints.Their reporting demonstratestheir bias.

In the Tech's "The Year in Re-view, 1986," the article on the di-vestment movement ["Shantiesand divestment," Feb. 3] con-cluded by stating that nothinghad happened from October 3until January. Fish quotes "a pro-testor" as stating that the move-ment had "hit a wall." Suchstatements infer that either the is-sue had fallen from favor orreached a point of frustration.

Actually, people in the CAAwere planning our seven lAP ac-tivities, reorganizing, working onthe formation of PAR, doing amailing for the Endowment forDivestiture, and catching up onclasswork. None of the major or-

ganizers for the CAA were con-tacted about the article.

Consider last Tuesday's articleabout Provost John M. Deutch'61 and his presentation aboutthe arms race ["Deutch urgespolicy of deterrence," March 31].The article gives extensive cover-age of Deutch's position on de-terrence, but fails to mention hismembership in Department ofDefense advisory groups or his

lice here know me. There werefour Camnpus Police present whenI was arrested last week: Baker,officers #8 and #63, and OfficerRaymond E. Roberts. I had dealtwith Baker and Roberts in thepast. Barbara Fienman and a co-worker in the Student Center,both of whom I've dealt with,were also present when I was ar-rested.

As I was being arrested, awoman told the Campus Policethat she recognized me as anMIT student from my beingamong the eight students arrestedat the shantytown last Spring.Another witness told the CampusPolice that I was a student; theresponse of the Campus Policewas something like, "Oh yeah,we know all about him."

Later that night I spoke toRoberts; he said that he hadknown that I was a registeredstudent for a couple of weeks.Roberts, a minority himself, tookpart in my harassment. He ob-served my humiliation silently in-stead of telling the other Officersthat I was in fact a student. Thisillustrates the complexity of rac-ism at MIT - it is so pervasivethat minoritites themselves getcaught up in it.

Clearly the Camrnpus Policeknew who I was and that I was asocially active student; my arrestwas an attempt to intimidate me.Baker later made that clear bysaying something like, "You hadbetter watch yourself, or you aregoing to end up back here." Ihave worked very closely with theCambridgeport (Simplex) com-munity which faces destructionby MIT, and I have worked to getMIT to stop investing in apart-heid. The MIT administrationworks against students whostruggle for such issues.

The MIT administration hasset up a context of tension anddistrust among the progressivestudents and the Campus Police,

by sending the Campus Police toguard our behavior at the ralliesand events we hold, by havingCampus Police physically abuseus, arrest us, and videotape ouractions. I realize that everyonedoes not have my political per-spective. But I feel I have theright to hold these views withoutbeing persecuted.

PAR is conducting a surveywhich examines complaints of ra-cial harassment by any sector ofthe MIT community, includingthe Campus Police and the ad-ministration. The Office of theDean for Student Affairs shouldeither assist in this survey or gettogether with the minorities oncampus to draw up a survey in-vestigating this area of racism.Any study of racism that doesnot investigate these offenses isseriously insufficient and there-fore misleading, as is the casewith the "Racial Climate" report.

From the ODSA, I have gath-ered that there is no committteewhich deals with charges of har-rasment by MIT Campus Police;there is no review board for theCampus Police, and there is nocommittee that deals with griev-ances of racial harrasrnent. Theonly procedure for dealing withsuch complaints is to see a dean.

I am filing complaints againstthe MIT Campus Police. My ob-jective is to help reduce racialand political harassment and topromote the setting up of a com-mittee to handle grievances ofracism, and a police review boardor a committee to handle griev-ances against the Campus Police.

'I hope through these comrn-plaints to bring about a reductionin the racial harrasment of mi-norities by Campus Police, and Ihope my actions will help otherminority students to stand up toracism even if it comes fromthose in positions of authority,such as the police.

Police station. The superior offi-cer at the station said that theCampus Police couldn't just goup to a person, ask them for ID,and arrest them for trespassing ifthey didn't have ID. Later I wasreleased.

This arrest was unwarranted; aStudent Center representative in-formed me that the Wiesner Gal-lery is open to the public 24hours a day. Moreover, one of theofficers knew of my student sta-ttlus.

The next day, I went to thewoman I had recognized to get amore complete picture of whathad happened. She and the manwith whom I had seen her ex:plained to me that someonedressed similarly to me had triedto break into his room. Seeingme at the Student Center, theydidn't know what to do, so theyasked for help from the CampusPolice who were there. I under-stand that they were nervous butI wish that they had spoken withme first, especially given the be-havior of the MIT campus policetowards minorities.

Debate over whether minoritiesmeasure up academically, suspi-cions of minorities by fellow stu-dents, and repeated questioningby Campus Police asking for IDmakes many minority studentsfeel like they must defend theirright to be here at MIT. Therewere a number of people presentin the Gallery at the time butonly I, a minority, was ques-tioned.

When Baker asked me if I hadany ID I told him no, becausebeing a minority student does notobligate me to defend my right tobe on this campus. My case isnot an isolated incident; therehave been many instances of ha-rassment by the Campus Police.

I am a registered student hereat MIT. Many of the Campus Po-

they decide? The civil rightsmovement came about preciselythrough protests and disruptions.

On that same day, James H.Ferguson G ["ROTC, militarydefend US freedom," March 20],who seems to have been so thor-oughly deceived by the hysteriaof the TV show "Amerika," as-serts the ideas of "world commu-nity and peace . . . merely consti-tute a facade for communisttotalitarianism." He wrote, "Ithas yet to be shown that the com-mon citizen can govern himself."

Needless to say, these ideas arenothing new. Similar ideas havealways been expressed by right-wing reactionaries. They have al-ways rambled about the evils ofworld communism, the necessityof the war, the virtues of militar-ism and argued the masses arenot capable of governing them-selves. Sich blind and idioticconcepts as military honor (likeMafia honor) and jingoistic nuke-em-all patriotism have alwaysbeen used by the right wingers tostart wars. As Albert Einstein

To the Editor:Debates that bring to attention

basic issues affecting our lives arealways healthy. But the week be-fore the Spring Break, thesepages contained some of themost bizzare arguments aboutmilitarism on campus.

Sandra M. Schlipf '90 alleged["Class cheered for ROTC stu-dents," March 20] that the anti-militarism protesters took "morethan just 40 seconds [of her classtime] ... they took five minu-tes." She also boasted of havingcheered two ROTC 'young men"who displayed their machismoand rudeness.

The Reserve Officers' TrainingCorps prepares students for ca-reers in the armed forces of theUnited States. These forces de-stroyed at least two million livesbetween 1964 and 1975 in Indo-china alone; they killed 4000 ci-vilians in the Dominican Repub-lic in 1965.

The United States is stagingmaneuvers close to Nicaragua inpreparation for an invasion ofthat country. The United States isdoing so since their illegal contrawar of attrition against the de-fenseless population of Nicara-gua has been a dismal failure.Never mind your five minutes; isit wise to support a governmentregardless of what it does?Doesn't "contragate" prove lead-ers can lie? If they do, do youthink we should go to war when

said, "You can't prepare for warand prevent it at the same time."

The point is that the ones whodefend the wars and aggressionsof American imperialism, bypointing out that "Russians dothe same" are not addressing anyreal issues; they are evading reali-ty. They are cowards.

Of course we understand thatmembers of ROTC who are onpayroll tend to remain on pay-roll, and have deaf ears. Butsome of us pay taxes. We tend tohave better ideas on how ourmoney should be spent. Howabout sending the ROTC stu-dents down to Nicaragua andwork for the Sandinistas, to re-build the hospitals and schoolsReagan and his contra terroristsand murderers have destroyed,using our tax money? If these de-mands are unrealistic, why notask the ROTC organization to re-spectfully move off campus andteach their fine art of violence atsome other location?

SERVING THE ACADEMIC COMMUNITY SINCE 1882

JAMES A. ARGEROS, PresideritMILTON P. BROWN, Chairman of the Board I |

An Open Letter to the Entire M.I.T. Community:

For the past 71 years the Coop has proudly served you, the students, faculty and employees i|of the MIT community. We have tried to respond to your changing needs and have done ourbest to grow with you since 1916. We moved to a bigger building in 1937 and moved again in 71965, into the Tech Coop at the Stratton Student Center.

s3t-

To keep up with the ever-growing needs of the MIT community, we are pleased to announcethe relocation of the Tech Coop to a bigger, more beautiful MXIT Coop at Kendall Square,opening for business on May 4, 1987.

The new store marks our fourth and largest move ine the history of the MIT Coop. The newand expanded MIT Coop at, Kendall is living proof of our continuing commitment to serveyou. The new Coop at Kendall is contemporary in design, color and construction and willcarry more merchandise than any college store in the country with the exception of one- theCoop in Harvard Square. Ambiance, lighting, expanded assortments, a Food Court andpublic plaza, all in the center of the nation's technological frontier, are only some of thecharacteristics of MIT's new bookstore.

With our continued growth, our dedication to you will never change. Whe'd like to inform you|of our moving schedule to help you plan your purchAses durin-g the next few weeks.During the week of April 20, we'll move men s and women's apparel and home furnishing,excluding MIT insignia, to the new MIT Coop at Kendall. Books, art prints, records, tpes,CD's and electronics will be moved to the new store during the week of April 29.

Stationery, Insignia, Health & Beauty aidsj.and other convenience items will be condensedand sold in the Student Center until the end of classes on May 16.

We will open another Coop, smaller in size, in the Stratton Student Center, to serve the WestCampus community, once the Center's renovation plan has been completed.

We know you'll be as pleased as we are with your new MIT Coop. Continuing in the tradi-tion begun in 1916, we are dedicated to improving the present to meet the future.

to support his ideas by finding atoken black in support of them.He claimed, "Black administra-tors [at MIT] are spineless, andtake instruction well, but theyaren't leaders.... As a commu-nity we have failed to develop acommon agenda."

Jones said that MIT separatesthe black community by convinc-ing blacks that their individualprogess is all-important and em-phasizing competitive isolation."We need black students who areas interested in making a commu-nity as they are in individualachievement," he said.

He also asked that MIT con-centrate on studying this issue,explaining that Thursday's BGSAforum marked the first study ofblack admissions since Minor'sstudy in 1981.

Audience members relatepersonal experiences

Members of the audience dis-

cussed personal experiences ofracism at MIT.

A black faculty member in theMIT Writing Program told of anincident from a few years ago.After she had organized two pop-ular Humanities Distributiondealing with black writing, shewas told unofficially by a superiorto stop organizing such black-ori-ented courses if she wanted ten-ure at MIT. -

A black graduate student feltthat he had an unusually difficulttime finding faculty memberswilling to help him with his re-search, and that he did not havethe same access to study groupsand material from past versionsof his courses that his fellow-stu-dents did.

Williams claimed that over thepast few years he has been no-ticeably cropped out of picturesand his name has been omittedfrom relevant articles in TechTalk.

(Continued from page 1)

Paul E. Gray '54, Associate Pro-vost S. Jay Keyser, Director ofStudent Financial Aid Leonard V.Gallagher '54, Behnke andMcBay should make admissionstandards uniform for all stu-dents.

Although the two panelistsagreed that blacks should be ad-mitted on merit alone even if thisreduced their numbers at MIT,the audience had a mixed opin-ion.

Panelists censure MIT'streatment of blacks

Williams claimed that blacksadmitted "on a lower standard"constantly face the question,"Why are blacks here? - for anaffirmative-action quota or foracademic merit?"

"By announcing that there is adual standard of admissions atMIT, Gray has depreciated theworth of a black MIT graduate,"he explained.

"MIT policies are ideal for thecloset racist," Williams said. Heaccused Gray of being such asracist. Blacks are admitted underaffirmative action programrs butare not supported academically,he charged.

The panelists agreed that MITprovides no continued supportfor black students; once they areadmitted as affirmative-action"statistics," blacks are then aban-doned to MIT's intense academicand social pressures. Jones said,"We don't have the margin ofsafety that white folks have."

Jones felt that predominantlyblack colleges are far more sup-portive and encouraging of theirstudents than predominantlywhite "highly selective" collegeslike MIT.

Williarms regretted the lack ofblack community'spirit and ac-cused Gray of using internal ten-sions within the black community

HE FLOWERS APPEAR on the earth,the time of singing is come andthe voice of the turtle (dove) shallbe heard throughout the land.

The Song of Solomon 2:10-12Voice of the Turtle provided a delightful

and affectionate afternoon of Sephardicmusic and storytelling Sunday night inKresge Auditorium. The group, which ismade up of Derek Burrows, LisleKulbach, Jay Rosenberg & Judith Wachs,was joined for this performance by RobertJ. Lurtsema, host of WGBH Morning ProMusica, who acted as narrator.

The Sephardim are the descendants ofJews who settled in Spain after the Dia-spora. Spain expelled its Jewish popula-tion during the Inquisition, and the peoplesettled in the middle and near east, -inNorth Africa, and in the Baltic countries.The Sephardic culture is a mixture of cul-ture from these regions, traditional Jewishculture and Spanish culture.

Voice of the Turtle allows its audience aglimpse of the Sephardim in their stories,songs, music and costumes (which arebased on ancient designs). The experiencewill be both familiar and strangely differ-

ent to those whose backround is Ashkenaz(Eastern European Jewish).

The program for this performance was"The Dove and the Magic Cloak," anoriginal folktale by David Burrows. Thegroup accompanied the telling of the storywith traditional Sephardic songs, and withmusic played on a variety of modern andmedieval instruments. A collection of ab-stract color slides set the appropriatemoods and provided a backdrop to theplayers and narrator.

The players worked well as a team, andshowed themselves to be able in singing,strumming, blowing and pounding. Thesongs ranged from sweetly sung ballad tofast and intense chant (to the accompani-ment of drums).

The story itself is reminicent of manyclassic fairytales, both Sephardic and oth-erwise. Children should enjoy the perfor-mances of the group, though a two hourprograhn (with one intermission) may betoo long for very young ones.

Many of the songs in the program were'celebratory songs to be sung at the springholidays of Purim and Passover, and thegroup has incorporated the telling of thestory of Purim into the folktale. The audi-ence was encouraged to participate in thetraditional practice of drowning out thename of Haman in the Purim story, an actin which both adults and the many chil-dren in the audience joined with fervor.

Voice of the Turtle has been performingas a group since 1978, and tours in theUnited States, Canada, Europe, and Isra-el.

words." But real life words do not makereal art.

"Working" is composed of an endlessand unnecessary series of song-vignettes inwhich each and every one of the characterswe see in the musical's opening song tellwhy he loves or hates working. Consider-ing that six people wrote the songs for theproduction, perhaps Stephen Schwartz,who adapted "Working" from Terkel'sbook; could not bring himself to throwanyone's songs away. During the perfor-mance, you can almost hear the audiencecounting down how many characters areleft to sing their woes.

MTG's production opened on a passion-less note: like zombies, the music and ac-tors were oddly disconnected. They stood,solemn and unsmiling, dressed as a femalewaitress, a male trucker, a male bricklayer,a female editor (a concession to sex equa-lity), a paperboy, and so on, singing 'All

ES, SOME JOBS ARE BORING AND

working for a living can be try-ing. But "Working," MIT Musi-cal Theatre' Guild's latest pro-

duction, reflects life a bit too closely -"Working" was work to sit through. Al-though Director Scott E. Ramsay '89 andcompany did their jobs with enthusiasm,the choice of this musical was a bad one.

Based on Studs Terkel's collection ofreal life tales of working told by real lifepeople, MTG's program says of the.musi-cai, "The characters in 'Working' are non-fictional.... Their names have beenchanged, but their words have not ....The writers [of the musical] have tried toremain faithful to the character's original

"Tin Men, "a touching tale of tit-for-tat and trnsitionTIN MENWritten and directed b) Barry Levinson.Starring Richard Dreyfuss, DannyDelgito, and Barbara Hershey.At the Cheri, the Janus, andSomerville (Assembly Square) theaters.

By PETER DUNN

AN ANYTHING GO WRONG? DannyDeVito received critical acclaimlast year as a deceitful husbandin "Ruthless People." Richard

Dreyfuss won acclaim for his performanceas coat hanger magnate in "Down and Outin Beverly Hills." Barbara Hershey wasstriking as the object of Michael Caine'sdesire in Woody Allen's multiOscar win-ner, "Hannah and Her Sisters." All theprincipals in Barry Levinson's new film,"Tin Men," are on a roll. Not much cango wrong.

Richard Dreyfuss and Danny DeVitoare the tin men of the title - aluminumsiding salesmen, the conmen of Baltimoreof 1963 - Bill "BB" Babowsky and Er-nest Tilley respectively. "Tin Men" is asoft-spoken and subtle comedy of theirconfrontation, evolution, and transition.

The film opens on extreme closeups of abeautiful, shiny, new car as the creditsflash past in clhssy art deco lettering.Then, as the audience begins to recognizeimages of car parts repeating themselves,we realize that we are subjectively ogling abrand new Cadillac Coupe de Ville alongwith BB. A large Caddy with its distinctivelines and snazzy fins is the ultimate statussymbol for tin men and BB knows he de-serves one.

For Tilley, the day begins as any other-nagging from his pestering wife, Nora(Barbara Hershey), and a stiff neck thatjust won't loosen up. As he drives to workin his big yellow Caddy, all seems natural.

However, i collision course is about tochange his life in some subtle and somenot so subtle ways.

BB's shiny new Cadillac makes it a sixthof a mile out of the car dealership ontothe street only to be sidewinded by Tilley.Instant mutual hatred and oathes of re-venge. And so begins a joint escalation ofcar mutilation and one-upmanship thatdraws innocent Nora into the fray.

But although "Tin Men" could easilydegenerate into gut-wrenching comedy byplaying for laughs as BB and Tilley go ateach other, writer and director Barry Le-vinson instead opts for the type of comedythat draws that little chuckle from inside.This is the kind of comedy that leaves awarm glow inside the viewer as he leavesthe theater, a knowledge that the humancondition is a humorously uplifting one.

Levinson's "Tin Men," like his earlier"Diner," concerns itself less with plot andmore with telling the tale of male bonding.Where "Diner" focused on the youngfriends who gathered at the diner to talkof women and exploits, "Tin Men" focus-es on the aluminum siding conmen andtheir trials, tribulations, and scams, usingBB's and Tilley's feud as the thin threadthat links everything together. So insteadof a linear storyline depicting the mutualone-upmanship of the two rivals, "TinMen" is not averse to wandering off onsome tangent in the everyday life of a tinman.

Woody Allen's films come first to mindwhen viewing "Tin Men." The comedy andstyle are quite similar. But Levinson's"Diner" and "Tin Men" are to Allen filmsas Gene Kelly is to Fred Astaire. While Al-len films are more often geared at the so-phisticated intelligencia, Levinson's com-edies touch a chord in the heart of theworking class man.

Richard Dreyfuss, Barbara Hershey, and Danny DeVito in "Tin Men."The final theme of "Tin Men" is one of

transition. On the one hand the tin men'srivalry connotes an unswerving denial ofsurrender but on the other hand, they areforced to make changes in their lives. Howthe two deal with and adapt to the chang-ing rules of life is just as important in "TinMen" as their refusal to cede to one an-other.

This gradual transition is most notice-ably exernmplified with Levinson's masterfuluse of color to suggest mood. Where thedisillusionment and moodiness of "Diner"

were shown through dark and grayish col-ors, "Tin Men" starts with bright bluesand yellows and slowly drifts to darkershades as the film progresses.

Also, Levinson's preoccupation withfaces - often filming a conversation inloose closeups and tight medium shots-adds a certain subtle intensity to what hischaracters say. The fact that his charactersstutter, repeat themselves, and fail to findthe proper words, as opposed to the most-ly well articulated and well argued lan-guage of an Allen film, adds a middle-classbelievability to the script.

Dreyfuss and DeVito are perfectly castas the two tin men. For once DeVito seemsmore to fit in as just another of the manyconmen instead of being an short, frus-trated oddball. And Dreyfuss is comfort-able and convincing as a graying but stillseductive bachelor. But the gem of "TinMen" is Barbara Hershey: after seeing herin "Hannah" where the film begins appro-priately enough with the sentence "God,she's beautiful.. .," the transformation tosimple, bespectacled, Maryland accentedhousewife is incredible.-Perhaps its an ear-ly prediction of an Oscar nomination.

Levinson's "Tin Men" is a comedy to besure, but no Monty Python or "PoliceAcademy V" here. Levinson has blendedcharm with simple laughs at the expense ofthe everyday man to show us that we canchuckle at ourselves and don't need buf-foonery to entertain us. But more thansimple, lingering, warm laughs, Levinsonhas combined his comedy with a believabletale of everyday life to give an upliftingstory of human perseverance.

Moving along into the vignette se-quences, individual performances savedthe show from disaster. The portrayal ofthe paperboy by Athena P. Tai '90, hap-pily one of the first vignettes, woke the au-dience up with her energetic "Neat to be aNewsboy." She marched around the stagelike a toy soldier throwing newspapersthrough every window she could. Thissong illustrated the work-is-fun theme.

Michael Friedhoff '90 deftly portrayed aMexican migrant worker who told a sad,eloquent story about how hard his moth-er's life had been, how she had never givenup hoping for something better for herfamily. While he talked, Jennifer Soko-lowski '90 softly sang "'Un Mejor Dia Ven-dra." If "Working" had consisted of onlypieces such as this, it would have betterconveyed Terkel's intent.

vacuum cleaners.The choreography and set were unin-

spired. Sarah Abrams chose one dancestep which the actors employed repetitivelythroughout the production. It was abackup singer-type movement, where thefeet awkwardly cross over one another, butit was difficult for the actors to synchro-nize the step with the music. The set was abadly painted wall simulating cinderblock(illustrating the work-as-a-jail-cell theme).

Friedhoff returned at the show's close asa steelworker who hoped he would havesome accomplishment to present to hisson, even if it was a steel girder on top ofa building. His song, "Fathers and Sons,"was lovely. He was then joined by thecompany in "Something to Point to," asong about taking pride in your work,which they sang with resounding energy.Unfortunately "Working" will not be ashow MTG can point to. The fine singingand acting talents of the Guild could havebeen better employed.

Robert Young's gas meter reader, sneak-ing up behind the housewife (Carol Smith'89) and screaming "Gas man!" was agood laugh. Rina Cerulli '86 gave a spark-ling performance as the boisterous Italianwaitress, Delores Dante. Delores saw wai-tressing as an art form -- how she placeda plate, how she never expected a tip forher performance. As Cerulli belted out hersong, she ignored her whining customers.

Creating trucks riding through the nightwas cleverly accomplished by attachingtwo flashlights on the sides of a box. Rid-ing atop his box, trucker Richard Buelles-bach '90, in a rich, torchy voice, sang"Brother Trucker."

We necessarily plodded through work-as-drudgery themes with Deb Kreuze '90as an editor and Smith as a housewife. Al-though the housewife complained in hersong that housewifing is underrated andquite fulfilling, Smith's unspirited, defen-sive tone did not convince. Or maybe itwas the backup singers pushing imaginary

ments would simply be brokenint6 small sections with separateinstructors.

Faculty mentioned the possibil-ity that some heavily enrolledsubjects would merely act as um-brellas for smaller and very dis-tinct sections: for example, a lan-guage course might includesections in French, German,Spanish and Russian.

Nevertheless, opponents fearedthat restricting the number ofcourses would diminish students'chances to "seek out good teach-ing." There should be no numeri-cal cap on course offerings, theysaid. "The distinction shouldn'tbe 50 courses ... it should be[made on] some more intelligentbasis," said one student.

There were only 50 Subjects inthe HASS distribution programwhen it was introduced in the1970's, but now there are threetimes as many, noted Richard L.Cartwright, head of the depart-ment of linguistics and philos-ophy. He asked, "What distin-guishes the subjects available fordistribution [now] from those not[having distribution status]?"

Cartwright argued that thenumber of distribution subjectsgrew 'out of faculty concern toget students, not what madesense educationally."

David Thorburn, professor ofliterature, pointed out that oneof the original motives for thehumanities reform movement wasthe "effort to go some way to-wards a common experience [inthe humanities] for MIT under-graduates." This motive wouldimply a limited number of distri-bution subjects.

'This is a movement for orderand parsimony," Travis Merritt,director of the humanities under-graduate office, told The Tech.

However, in response to onestudent's query if MIT wouldsomeday have a common first-year humanities course, as only afew universities (including Co-lumbia and Stanford) still do,Cartwright said, "I don't thinkthere's a chance in the world."

Faculty could leaneither way

"It's not my impression thatthe Dean's Office wants to cramthis [proposal] down anyone'sthroat," Thorlurn commented."I think they want to make itclear that the process of curricu-lum reform is underway," hesaid. "My own impression is thata majority of faculty opposethis."

But others at the discussionwere not so certain. Several feltthat the proposal had a very goodchance of passing.

Robin Wagner SM '86, specialassistant to the Commission onEngineering Undergraduate Edu-cation, told The Tecah, "the Com-mission ... is completely sup-portive of the HASS proposal."

One student expressed his fearthat "Shakespeare will not be aHUM-D under this proposal."The student was one of manywho felt that if the number ofcourses were cut, only broad sur-vey courses would be offered fordistribution.

And, because not all studentsare willing to take more thaneight slots for humanities -three to five of which are takenup by a concentration - "nowyou're starting to put seriousclamps on the flexibility that peo-ple will have," one student ob-served.

Some students questioned theeffectiveness of any kind of dis-tribution requirement at all."You pick one from column 'A'and one from column 'B' andbingo: you're a well-rounded per-son," one student remarked sar-castically.

"It's absurd to think that youcan get a distributive educationin only three slots," AndrewBorthwick-Leslie '87 said.

One faculty complaint againstthe present distribution system isthe amount of departmentaloverlap that it allows. Last Au-gust's Report of the Committeeon the HASS Requiremzents criti-cized the overlap for "undermin-ing the effectiveness in buildingbreadth into students' pro-grams." For example, it is possi-ble to satisfy the distribution re-quirement by taking sociologysubjects under Urban Studies,Political Science and the Sociolo-gy program at Wellesley, the re-port said. Similarly, literaturesubjects fall under the headingsof Science, Technology and Soci-ety; the Writing Program; andLiterature itself.

Both students and facultyquestioned the impact that MIT'shumanities programs had on pro-spective students.

At Stanford, ranked numbertwo among schools to which MITloses its applicants (the first isHarvard), almost 300 distributionsubjects are offered among fivehumanities fields. Stanford alsorequires two subjects in writingand a "context" course for engi-neering students. Harvard offersabout 150 subjects in its "core"curriculum.

Stuldent describes arrestat the Wiesner Gallery

(Continued from page 1)while Roberts knew Fernandezwas a student, the officer had leftafter Baker arrived and was notaware that Fernandez was beingarrested. [Fernandez claimedRoberts was aware of the arrest.l

Fernrandez was taken to theCambridge Police for booking,where an inventory of belongingswas performed. Fernandez's reg-istration sticker was found duringthis inventory, indicating that hewas registered for the springterm. Because it was then clearthat Fernandez was indeed a stu-dent, he was returned to the Stu-

dent Center, Olivieri said.Fernandez said that if he was

suspected of breaking and enter-ing, he should have been chargedwith that crime and not trespass-ing. He threatened civil actionagainst the Campus Police.

Olivieri said he "would wel-come" any suit by Fernandez. Hesaid the suspicions of the twostudents gave the Campus Policeprobable cause to ask for identifi-cation. He further said that theCampus Police demonstratedtheir good faith by releasing himwhen they ascertained his studentstatus.

The first Novice eight finishedsecond with 7:22.0 while Rad-cliffe won the race with 7:13.8.University of New Hampshire fin-ished third with 7:40.7 andNortheastern came in last with7:57.4. MIT swiftly gained com-mand of the race at the start ofthe race. However, the Radcliffeeight moved their boat better bysimply rowing a less hurried ca-dence of 34 strokes per minute,four strokes lower than MIT. Ac-cording to Tiffany, they had astrong first 1000 meters but didnot have the mental toughnessneeded to win.

The women's varsity team en-tered an eight and a four in theirraces. MIT would have enteredtwo eights if they had had fewerinjuries, Earle said - currentlyfour of 19 rowers are injured.

I'he varsity eight finished lastin its race against Radcliffe andNortheastern. Radcliffe won therace with 6:46.7 and Northeast-ern finished second with 6:59.57MIT's time was 7:20.6.

MIT led in the first 15 secondsof the race but lost their lead toRadcliffe around the 250-metermark, overpowered by Rtadcliffe'sand -Northeastern's bigger crews.However, Earle noted that LauraGrunbaum '87 did an excellentjob stroking and showed a re-markable amount of composureunder bad racing conditions.

The varsity four also lost tothe Radcliffe and Northeasternfours. Northeastern won the racewith 7:59.4 and Radcliffe finishedsecond with 8:15.8. MIT came inlast with 8:12.4.

excellent fall season, wirning theLowell Regatta, the Mount Ho-lyoke Regatta and the DartmouthRegatta, losing only in the Footof the Charles Regatta (4th outof over 40 crews). Varsity Wo-men's Coach Mayrene Earle re-marked that the second noviceeight was the first in at least sixyears_ to win this race againstRadcliffe.

The last time the novice teamwon was five years ago, when thefirst Novice eight edged out Rad-cliffe to win under Earle.

The second novice eight startedwith a 38-strokes-per-minute rat-ing, quickly shaking off UNH inthe first 15 seconds. By the 500-meter mark, they had gained oneboat length on UNH and sixseats on Radcliffe, according tocoxswain Paula S. Han '89.

But the Radcliffe crew startedits sprint at the Harvard Bridgeand steadily gained water onMIT. The two eights were pullingstroke fo r stroke by Pierce BoatHouse, the 1500-meter mark.Radcliffe moved again on MITand gained two seats near the fin-ish line. But MIT responded andthey were side by side once againin the last few strokes. Radciffe'sseven or six-seat caught a crabduring the last five strokes of therace and MIT surged ahead towin.
