T'o violations of rushing rules fore1957 Rush Week have been acted,on by the Investigations Commit-, of IFC, and action has been takennboth. However, violators of the.ies will not be made public by this:oup.The rules broken were the "four-

a 1rushee may be away from the fra-ternity house cluring the day) andthe rule which makes rushing beforethe official start of Rush W'cee; ille-gal.
PunishrmentsThe violation of the four-hour rule
was punished by prohibiting the vi-olating house flrom rushing off the
MIT campus on the first day thatbids may be accepted. Since IFC reg-uiations state that a bid may not beaccepted until 48 hours after the be-gillning of the rushing period, thiswrould mean that the house punished-will not be able to rush outside oftVie house on Monday of Rush Week.
The pre-rushing violation walrrant-edi only a token fine, "because ofmisunderstandings and misinterpreta-
tions in (this) case," said Dave Lar-son '58, past temporary chairman ofthe committee who plresided duringthe levying of the fines.
Publicize PunishmentsNot Offenders
Lai-son also said the "No mentionof the fraternities involved was madeat last week's IFC meeting, nor v willany mention be made. The positionof the committee and of IFC regard-ink the violations is to publicize thepunishments and not the offenders."
In punishing a house for such vi-olations, IFC can do three things:Fine a house up to $50; Remove theabused privilege; or publicize the vi-olation within the IFC, which wouldessentially be complete publicationcn the campus. This punishment isthe most serious of the three, andthis year the IFC chose not to use it.
Token Fines IneffectiveIn past year]s the fines have been
used for .most violations, but Larsonsaid, "The houses break the same1rules year after year, and the tokenfines a re ineffective in stoppingthem."
Professor Niels Bohr of the Insti-tute of Theoretical Physics, Copen-hagen, Denmark, will present thefirls' lecture in the Karl Taylor Comp-ton Lecture Series Tuesday, Novem-ber 5, at 8:00 p.m. in Kresge Audi-torCium.
The 72-year-old Danish scholar ar-rived here Monday and w-ill fly toW'ashington tomorrolov afternoon forofficial presentation of the Atoms forPeace Award by President Eisenhow-erTh r sday.
The six lectures Professor Rohrv.ill give are entitled "Quantum Phys-
ics and the Notion of Complemen-tarity". The other dates are: Novem-ber 7, 14, 19, 21, and 26. Prof. Bohrhas stated his goal will be to givean elementary, philosophical accountof the development of quantum phys-ics and the notion of complementar-ity in physical make-up of matter,thus furthering a widespread under-standing of these imiportant aspectsof nature.
The Atoms for Peace Award, ofw-hich Prof. Bohr will be the firstlecipient, consists of a gold medaland honorarium of $75,000. NielsRohi was the unanimous choice of theboard of trustees of the award meet-ing at MIT March 6. Chairman ofthe board and President of MIT,James R. Killian, Jr., said of Bohr:"By his example he has inspired sci-entists everyw-here to seek out scienceas an instrument for human wel-fare."
Niels Bohr was only 28 when hleopened up a whole new field of at-omic physics with his basic theoreti-cal wolrlk on the structure of theatom. His contributions have becnIranked with those of Copernicus,Galileo Newton, and Einstein.
In 1936 Prof. Bohr turned to nu-clear physics and proposed a theoryof nuclear reaction which success-fully interpreted the experiments ofEnrico Fermi and others on the in-teraction of neutrons with nuclei.
During the war he was forced toflee Denmark which had been occu-pied. Prof. Bohr escaped to Swedenhidden in a fishing boat, and frc lthere he was flown in the bomb-bayof a Mosquito bomber to England.IFrom England he was brought tothis country to Los Alamos to work;on the atomic bomb.
Bill Becker, a reporter on the New-York Tihes, who has know n NielsBohr for many years, said in a re-cent article in the New York TimnesVlnrnfr,;4oP thnt "In Dnel-nnlvk- Rnhl-'q
standing is only slightly less sacredthan that of the royal family andHans Christian Andersen." ProfessorBohr is also described as an ardentathlete in spite of his age and likelyto come to a colloquire at the Insti-tute in Copenhagen with his trousersrolled up and hair on end after a briskbicycle ride. The Institute itself hasbeen described by one scientist ascomparable to Plato's school. Thisyear fifteen of the forty or fiftyyoung graduate physicists attendingare Americans.
By far the most striking aspect ofProf. Bohr's life has been his tire-less work for international control ofthe atom. Even before the first atonibo.mb blast on July 16, 1945, he wascanmpaigning for international controlof atomic weapons. Since the wtar hehas had no connection with any mili-tary nuclear project. Prorf. Bohr alsoplayed a major role in setting up the1955 Atoms for Peace Conference atGeneva.
World-wide scientific cooperation,Prof. Bohr thinks, is hun:anity's besthope for a peaceful future.

Tau Epsilon Phi IsNow IFC Member;Formerly TEP Club
After three years under proba-tionary status with the IFC, and asa colony of the national fraternity,Tau Epsilon Phi has been admittedas a full-fledged chapter of the Inter-
'Fraternity Conference. Last Thurs-day night, at a mceting of the !FC,the TEP Club, as it was formerlyknown, was unanimously raised to thestatus of an official chapter.
Larry Boedeker '58, IFC Seere-tary, outlined the requirements ofhouse membership. The only specificrequirements are that the house musthave spent a two-year initial pc-riod and a one-year probationary pc-riod in its own house, iprior to ad-mission. The requirements beyondthis, aside from that of sound finan-cial condition, are based on the gen-eral progress, activity, and member-ship of the house during its proba-tionary period.
History of TEPThe past history of the Xi Chap-
ter of Tau Epsilon Phi was out-lined by Gary Teper '59, House Pres-ident. The chapter had formed origi-nally in 1919, but was never recog-nized by the IFC. Eventually, thechapter disbanded in the 1930's. Thepresent chapter refornmed itself aboutfive yealrs ago, and has been peti-tioning for membership for the pastthree years. During that time, TEPamoved into its house at 488 BeaconStreet, and was accepted as a colonyby the national fraternity.
Installation RanquetInstallation ceremonies and banquet
were held at the TEP House on Sat-urday evening, October 19. DeansFassett, Rule and Speer attended theinstallation ceremonies, accorlding tothe House President. The new sta-tus of the house will extend to itsmembers the advantages of nationalaffiliation, without altering their ad-ministrative set-up. The financial ar-rangements, in particular, will re-main unchanged, as each chapter ofTau Epsilon Phi is responsible forits own finances.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONAll new students must make an ap-
pointment for their physical examina-tion on or before November Ist, orthey will be charged $5 for nofifica-tion.
Niels Boh,. eminent Danish physicist andNobel Prize Winner. who will deliverCompton Lecures and be in residence atMIT during November.
Waiting time for Junior Prom op-tions and tickets hit an all time highthis year, as some groups waited atotal of over 55 hours. Options welrescold in building ten at 9 a.m. Fridaynorning, and early Thursday morn-irng the line was already well formed.
The object of waiting in the optionlim-e was to achieve a good positionin the ticket and table reservationline at the cage, so this line formedat about 9:02 Friday as option hold-ers sprinted to the cage.
Sammys FirstThe first glroup to arrive at the
option line was from Sigma AlphaNu fratcernity. They set up head-quarltelrs in building 10 about 5 a.m.Thursday morning. Soon afterwardssevelral other fraternities and a dor-mitory group arrived, and otherpiom-goers, seeing the lineup hur-ried to get a favorable position.
By T h u r s d ay night, fifty-fivegroups had signed up in the line.Building ten's lobby was turned intoa temporary dormitory for the night,and it was lined with cots, mattresses,stadents doing homewlork, and even aportable TV set.
Last year the line did not formuntil late Thursday night, when onlyone f aternity posted men; and theyear before there had been essential-1y no line at all.
The line at the cage was evenlonger than in building ten. Over onehuindred students waited in the allnight vigil for table reservations. The-wrestlinrg mats made sleeping more
comfortable, but many groups sup-)plied their own cots and mattresses.
The JP committee reported thatabout 450 tickets to Friday' night and270 tickets to the Saturday nightaffairs were sold.
The JP ticket line vigil extends late into the night at the cage. Well over a hundred studentsslept and groggily answered the hourly roll calls as they waited to reserve tables for theNovember Ist dance.

ed 0Afl~r iftoaLast week the Investigations Committee of the Inter-
Fraternity Conference found one of the MIT fraternitiesguilty of violating the IFC rush week rules on two counts,and penalized the house accordingly. The fact that one ofthese penalties involved the unprecedented restriction of amajor rushing privilege for 1958 indicates a new desire onthe part of the IFC to demand that the rules be followed.This trend is one to be encouraged.
An interesting fact to note in this case is that both ofthe charges were made against one house, and that bothcharges were initiated by one house. There was no otherofficially noted major violation during the past rush week.These facts would seem to indicate that only one fraternitywas guilty of major violations of rush week rules and thatonly one house noticed these violations. That this is patentlyuntrue is clear to anyone involved in the past or in anyprevious rush week on the MIT campus. While not sonumerous as to cause chaos, infractions of the rules arealmost everyday affairs and few go unnoticed by otherhouses.
Why then, did the total number of official major com-plaints during the past rush week involve only one accusinghouse and one accused. The reasons behind the reluctanceof fraternities to press charges against other fraternities arethreefold: (1.) fear of seriously damaging inter-house re-lations; (2) a feeling that once rush week is over suchcharges do little or no good; and (3) a reluctance to involvepledges in substantiating charges. To some extent the logicbehind each of these feelings is reasonable. The sum totalof these feelings is that the present system involving housesaccusing and making cases against other houses is unreal-istic.
The logical body to handle these situations is the IFCInvestigations Committee. Such a system would requirethat, were one fraternity suspicious of another's actions, itwould merely indicate this fact to the investigations Com-mittee Chairman. The committee would then study thesituation, and, in the event of an infraction, make its caseagainst the violator. That this would not create a "policestate" situation, as has at times been feared, is clear in thataccusations would still originate in the fraternities. Thatthis would create a realistic situation is clear in that nolonger would a fraternity be required to go through theoften messy procedure of making a full-scale investigationand bringing a case against another fraternity. Only undersuch a situation could the IFC, which has just indicated itsdesire to demand that rush week rules be followed, makeits desire into a reality.

an allegory on the American Revolution. The drunk's namewas Samuel Adams.
Man with beard and green laundry bag: I doubt if thisis an.allegory and I don't think it's so tragic as the director,would haste us believe. In an O'Casey play the most im-portant thing is the language. This play has very little plotand the thing that carries it and makes it funny is themusic of it-the dialects. Since very little attempt at anIrish Brogue was made I frankly think the play was adismal failure.
Prof.: Let's move on and talk about 'Tis Pity She's afVhore. Herb?
Director: In this play, I simply tried to have the actorsget into the emotional feeling of the play so as to conveythese emotions to the audience.
Prof.: Is this method directing?Director: If you mean "method" to be working from the
inside of an actor and a character out to the audience-Ithink you could call this "the method".
Intellectual looking girl in audience: I think you madea mistake in trying to use "the method" on an Elizabethiantragedy. The poetry of the play was lost completely, andsince so many of their customs and manners are foreign tous and the actors did not work on them carefully, theyappeared rather funny.
Her intellectual looking boy friend: With more emphasison blocking and lighting, the play might not have lookedso ridiculous. There was not enough movement, longspeeches during which the speaker's back -was to the audi-ence, and places where it was impossible to see the actors'faces.
Another grubby lookibg lad: I don't think the play wasridiculous at all. The laughter is more a sign of the imma-turity of the audience than of the ill merits of the play. Ithink Mr. Propper did what he set out to do. I was movedby the play, and considering the time limitation and thedifficult script, a fine job was done.
A member of Dramashop: Of course we must keep inmind that this is experimental theatre. The object is for allof us to learn by these productions and I think that thisparticular play which is one of the most difficult yet at-tempted was a good thing to do because more can be learnedfrom this "experiment" than from a simpler one.
Prof.: With these kind words why don't we all adjournto the next room for coffee and cake.
cblleg e worldLooking under rocks the other day, counter intelligence
unco-vered a new plot by the faculty to udermine Chemorale of the MIT undergraduate. Just one of many at-tempts to prove that stag living can be fun, it was a newset of rules to limit male visitors in co-ed'Bexley Hall.The Tech reported these rules, including "friendliness isessential to the dormitory, but rules are requisite for prac-ticability". Rules ? Shackles! In the interest of my oppressedfellow-student 1 humbly submit a counter strategy: Govezn-
ment Subsidized Sororities.The advantages of such imported, select sororities are
many and impressive. A) A girl gives a student intellectualincentive. He studies harder so he can spend more timewith the girl. B) Having no school hours to meet., thesegirls can date students at more convenient times. C) Quar-antines for the Flu warrant no worry. We would be quaran-tined with the girls. D) Valuable study hours would nolonger be spent looking for dates. E) Student organizedsororities should greatly improve relations with bachelorteachers at MIT. F1) The date transportation problem wouldbe eliminated. G) Unlimited baby sitting service could be:provided for the faculty.
A possible outline for these full-time sororities is thefollowing eight-point plan:1) Since we lost the satellite race, graduate students can
be eliminated, and Grad House can be converted forsorority use.
2) Intellectual sorors wil l have scheduled classes betw een, 11:00 a.m. and noon only.
3) H alf o f t he undergraduate body will have classes atneight , dates i n t he daytime; therefore: more dates with
choice chicks!4) Establish a public relations department to handle jealousg irls' schools.5) Since satellite pressure is off, t he N av y contract m oney
previously used f or faculty entertainment c an supportth e sororities.6) Thu s Uncle Sam will render all food, cigarett es, liquor ,
an d housing t ax exempt.7) I BM 7 04 wil l facilitate matchmaking , and one of t he
f ollowing must be produced f or a date: Merit Scholar-ship Certificate, marriage license, COOP number, ortowel card.
8 ) Every phase of operation shall be student r un t o providevaluable experience for future vocations.
' Wenc h D ay is October 32nd . Simult aneou s convergenetswill b e directed upon all desirable local g irls' schools, a ndkidnapping will proceed according t o individual capacities.

However, guard against gaudiness. If, for instance,you are wearing a gold derby, do not also wear a cavalrysaber. This is too much. Wear a dagger instead, or, forformal occasions, a bowie knife.
Let us turn now to a persistent rumor that a gar-ment called the "suit" is on the verge of making acomeback. Some of you older students may rememberthis "suit." It was an ensemble consisting of a jacketand trousers, both of which-this'll kill you-both ofwhich were made out of the same material!
The last "suit" ever seen on an American campuswas in 1941-and I ought to know because I waswearing it. I was an undergraduate then, and in love-hopelessly in love with a beauteous statistics majornamed Harry Sigafoos. (She is one of the two girls Ihave ever known named Harry. The other one is hersister.)
I loved Harry madly, though her expensive tasteswere the ruin of me. Bit by bit I sold off my belong-ings to pursue this costly courtship-first my books,then my clothes, until finally I was left with nothingto wear but a "suit". One night I came calling for herin this garment and she, of course, slashed me acrossthe face with a riding crop and sent me from her door.
I slunk home and lit a Marlboro and sat down tothink. I always light a Marlboro when I sit down tothink, for their good mild flavor is a great aid to cere-bration. I always light a Marlboro when I don't sitdown to think, too, because Marlboro is my favoritecigarette, and I know it will be yours, too, once youmake the acquaintance of that filter, that flavor, thatfliptop box. As the man says, you get a lot to like witha Marlboro.
Well, sirs, smoking and thinking thus, my eye hap-pened to fall on an ad in a campus newspaper whichsaid: "WIN A COMPLETE WARDROBE! Touhy'sToggery, the campus's leading men's store, announcesa contest to pick the best-dressed man on campus. Thewinner will receive absolutely free a complete newwardrobe !"
Struck by a sudden inspiration, I took pen in handand wrote a letter to Mr. Touhy of Touhy's Toggery:
"Sir--I see by the paper that you are giving a com-plete new wardrobe to the best-dressed man on cam-pus. What a ridiculous idea!
"Obviously, to be the best-dressed man on campus,you must first have a lot of clothes, and if you have alot of clothes, what do you need with another wardrobe?
"Tbuhy's Toggery should give a new wardrobe tothe worst-dressed man on campus. Me, for instance.I am an eyesore. There isn't a crow in town that willcome near me. Three times this month the SalvationArmy salvage truck has picked me up. Esquire hascanceled my subscription.
"I submit that a vote for me is a vote for reason, avote for equity, a vote for the American way !"
With a flourish I signed the letter and sent it off,somehow feeling certain that very soon I would bewearing a complete new wardrobe.
And I was right-because two weeks later I wasdrafted. a Ala. Sht,[..n. 1957Always fashionable, always correct for any occasion, is thebright red and white flip-top box of Marlboros, made forFour pleasure by the sponsors of this column.

LNE REASON engineering standards atGeneral Motors are so high is that GM
recognizes engineering as a profession. Andthe men who engineer the many differentproducts made by General Motors arerespected for the profession they practice.
That is why, when you are invited to joinGeneral Motors as an engineer, you don'tsimply take a job-you start a career.
It is a career that is rewarding both profes-sionally and financially-starting on your firstday of association with General Motors at anyone of its 35 divisions and 126 plants in 70cities and 19 states.
During your early days at GM, for example,you work with a senior engineer who guidesyour career along professional lines.
You are also actively encouraged to pursueyour education towards an advanced degree.For we at General Motors recognize that, indoing so, you will become more valuable tous and the engineering profession.
You are given the opportunity to obtain pro-fessional recognition through participationin engineering society forums, presentationof technical papers, winning of patents andother recognition of your accomplishments.
And you are also encouraged to take an activerole in your community's affairs-because atruly professional man is a good citizen aswell as a good engineer.

tion, and $250,000 from the AlfredP. Sloan Foundation.
Groundwork on this project 'was he-gun last year when, under a $300,000grant from the National ScienceFoundation, a blue ribbon committeeof scientists and educators began tolay the foundation for a completelynew approach to the teaching of highschool physics. The group, 100 .menand women varying from high schoolstudents to Nobel Prize physicists,achieved one major objective thissummer when they completed a firstdlaft of a text written entirely frointhe point of view of modern physics.This book is being tried in seventest classrooms this year by a num-ber of secondary school teachers whoparlticipated in the summer trainingproject.
Colleges Will Get97 Kodak GrantsWorth $400,r00
Eastman Kodak Company has justannounced the awarding of $400,000in grants and fellowships to collegesand universities in the United States.
MIT will be among the collegesbenefitting from the grants, and willhave available fellowships towardPh.D. Degrees in Chemistry andM.S. Degrees in Engineering.
The direct grants, valued at $286,-000, will go to 58 privately supportedcolleges and universities on the ba-sis of graduates of those institutionswho joined the company five yearsagro and are presently employed.

"THE YOUNG STRANGER"
withKIM HUNTER JAMES DALY
All this is for a reason-and a good one.
Many of the men who will fill the key posi-tions at GM in the future are the young engi-neers joining GM today. This is not theory.it is fact. For 14 of our 33 Vice-Presidents areengineers, 23 of our 42 Division General Man-agers are engineers, too.
Today we are looking for young engineers-such as you-who may fill these positionsioniorrow. inc rewards-Dort professionaland financial-are substantial. If you feel youhave the ability, write us. It could be the mostimportant letter of your life.
My name is Cornell Jackson,private eye. Two days ago Iwas sitting in my office dic-tating, when suddenly a tallblonde passed my window. Iknew she was tall because myoffice is on the tenth floor.
"Hello," she said, "I needhelp, Rutgers."
"The name's Cornell."
"Yes. I'm worried about myhusband. Every night he staysout till six in the morning. Hecomes home with his hairmussed, lipstick all over hisface. What's up?"
"The butler did it."
"Oh come, come, Yale."
"Cornell, dearie."
"Yes. I think my husbandis unfaithful."
I exercised my think-tank."The butler did it." I blurted.
"Look, Oklahoma Aggies-tell me what to do?"
"Find out the secret of hissuccess with the femmes-- thenproceed from there. Whatbrand of shirts does he wear?"
"Van Heusen."
"What brand of underwearand pajamas?"
"Van Heusen."
I threw up my hands ---andwatched them loft lazily upto the ceiling. "Babe," I said,"you can't fight Van Heusen.There's only one thing youcan do. Marry the butler!"
Moral? No ladies worth theirsalt can resist Van Heusenmerchandise. If yoti want to bepopular . . . if you want towalk down the street and havepeople say, "There goes Jim,he's had more girls on his lapthan napkins," here's what todo. First change your nameto Jim --then buy Van Heusenmerchandise. You can't miss.

MIT Receives Grants, English ScholarsTwo King George VIScholars Attend MITStudEy US Technology
The MIT Graduate School will addto its ranks two King George ¥IMemorial Fellows, one from Englandland the other from Northern Ireland.Their sponsor is the Englishl-Speak-ing Union of the United States, whichawards the Fellowships each year toenable outstanding Commonwealt'istudents to come to the U. S. forgiaduate worlk in science or tcch-nology.
Anthony A. Dudman, studyingpart-time, ealrned a Higher NationalCertificate fron RBritain's Southamlp-ton University in 1951. He specializ-ed in Aeronautical Engineering andwill continue in this field while atM1T, studying for a Master of Sci-ence degree. He is particularly in-terested in methods of coupling struc-tural problems with the digital conl-purer and in American experiencewith the problems of supersonic air-craft. Dudman holds a Diploma fromithe Collegc of Aeronautics at Cran-field and formerly workled for Viclk-eri-Armstrong, Ltd.
Arthur Dennis Bond, a native ofBelfast, Northern Ireland, is a 1957Honors graduate of Queen's Univer-sity there. He received his B. S. inElectrical Engineering and will studyElectronics and Control Systems atMIT, becoming a candidate for aMaster of Science. He hopes to usehis Yisit to America to study auto-matic production in a country whereit is already accepted as part of theway of life.
At Queens, Bond held a number ofscholarships. He received his secon-dary education at the Royal BelfastAcademical Institution. He holds aCertificate of Special Melit from theTrinity College of Music in London.
Dudmnan and Bond are members ofa group of twenty-two young menand three young women wvho havewon King George VI Fellowshipsthis year. They are attending univer-sities across the States, availingthemselves of the facilities of thiscountry for research in the sciencesand technology. The King George VIMemorial Fellowships were foundedby the E-S. U. in honor of the lateKing's warlm support of the Anglo-American partnership during WorldWar II.

WHERE DO YOUWANT TO WORK?by g W. R. Galloway Du PontRepresentative
I wouldn't be entirely realis-tic if I said that you canlchoose your job locationfrom Du Pont's 75 plaznts and
1 98 laboratories scatteredI over 26 states- But Du Pont
does have jobs open in manyof these locations, so there is
I a good chance that wve malybe able to match your prep-erences and qualificationswith available openings.
Right now, most of theDu Pont units are east of theMississippi, but wve haveplants in Texas and on thePacific Coast, zoo. In the past
Career opportunities at Du Pont aregreater today than ever before be-cause of the Company's continuedgrowth. In 1957, Dal Pont's saleswere at the $2 billion level. Four newplants were being built. New researchprograms were being launched, andnew products were moving into theproduction and marketing stages. Allof these developments tend to broadenopportunities at DuPont for theyoung scientist and engineer.
ALL KINDS OF ENGINEERSStudents with chemical engineering
and chemistry degrees are needed, ofcourse. But the opportunities areequally great for students majoringin many other fields. And the type ofwork for these men varies greatly.Among other things:
Mechanical engineers work in re-
search and developmnent as well as inplant engineering and productionsupervision.
Metallurgical engineers conductstudies in metal fatigue and corrosionand engage in fundamental researchinto the nature and properties ofelements.
Civil engineers have many assign-ments, including design and super-vision of the construction of Du Pontplants and laboratories.
Men studying for degrees in electri-cal, mnininlg, petroleum, industrial andmany other specialized fields of engi-neering will find equally challengingoutlets for their talents at Du Pont.
If you're interested in finding fullscope for your ability, Du Pont offersyou plenty of opportunity.
