Two Institute professors have testi-fied that they were members of theCommunist party in the years justbefore and during the Second WorldWar.

Professor of Physical ChemistryIsador Amdur told the House Com-mittee on Un-American ActivitiesWednesday that he became a Com-munist party member in 1938 becausehe thought the Russians were doingmore to fight Nazism than the Allies,but that later he became "fed-up"with having thoughts dictated to him.HIe said that he believed that he wasno longer a Communist when he be-gan to work on the Atomic bombproject for the government in 1944.

Professor William T. Martin, headof the Mathematics Department, saidthat he had joined the QCommunistparty "around January 1938" and thathe quit the party during the summerof 1946. During this time he heldtwo brief, unimportant jobs for thegovernment (in the Wat Labor Boardand the Army Specialist TrainingProgram) but was not questioned asto whether or not he was a Commu-nist before being given either of thesejobs. Martin did not remember whorecruited him for these jobs.

Bowditch.MasisonMake StatementThe following. is the full text of

a statement made to THE TECH byCharles Masison '54, Dormitory Com-mittee President, and E. Francis Bow-ditch, Dean of Stueant

"On behalf of the Dormitory Com-mittee, the House Committees of thethree undergraduate Houses, and theDean's Office, we feel it advisable tomake an interim report to the M.I.T.community regarding conversationswe have been having since spring va-cation on the subject of life in thedormitories. The purpose of theseconversations has been to explore ascarefully as possible all sources ofmisunderstanding between studentsand the administration; to clarify thepresent areas of responsibility dele-gated by the Institute to the Dean'sOffice, to the Business Administra-tion Office, and to Student Govern-ment; to examine procedures and per-sonnel relations to make sure thatadequate authority exists in each areaof responsibility; to review all printedstatements for clarity and accuracy;and to discuss ways and neans of ef-fecting better.. communications be-twveen Students, Student Government, IAdministration, and Faculty. I

"We believe we have diagnosed theprimary sources of misunderstandingand are taking steps as quickly as pos-sible to eliminate them. In general,the basic areas of the adrminstration'sresponsibility in the operation of thedormitories has been clarified and ex-pressed in the so-called 'Basic Regu-lations' which have just been circu-lated with the application cards for dormitory rooms; there remain a fewitems, such as laundry, telephones, etc., still to be discussed and clari-fied. All other regulations relative tothe dormitories are, in general, the administrative responsibility of Stu- 1dent Government and are being re-viewved by the Dormitory Committeeand the House Committees, prepare.-tory to publication by Student Gov-ernment.

"Extended discussions have been <

held relative to the function of the House Patrol and the following con-clusions have been reached. 1.) The aprimary function of the House Pa- ttrol is that of night watchmen, to safeguard life and property; 2) As cOpen IHouse Rules, unnecessary noise

Professor Martin also testified thatProfessor Norman Levinson (Asso-ciate Professor of Mathematics), sus-pended Professor of MathematicsDirk J. Struik, and Associate Pro-fessor of Electrical Engineering Law-rence B. Arguimbau, were all Com-munists at the time he belonged tothe party. Martin regretted havingto mention names as "several ofthese people have left the Communistparty many years ago," and because"they are very sincere people."

Martin testified that he originallybecame a Communist because he was

Infirmar RadSCarry WMITStudents in the infirmary will now

be able to listen to WMIT on theirradios. A transmitter has been in-stalled and is now in full operationproviding staff and patients withWMIT's regular programming anduninierrupted all-day classical musicfrom the music library.

In the future the station will betaking requests from the men in theinfirmary on its "Caravan of Music"show every evening at 5 p. m. Fifteenminutes of the show will be set asidefor this purpose. Requests will also betaken on the Friday and SaturdayNight Owls.

Folk Singer WillBe Presented By

L.S.C. This Wed.Pete Seeger, the well known folk

singer and banjo player will be pre-sented by the Lecture Series Com-mittee on Wednesday, April 29. Theevent, consisting of both folk songsand stories, will be held in Room10-250 at 5 a. m.

Seeger has been very active in thegrowing interest in folksinging thathas taken place across the country.With three other singers, he formeda group called the "Weavers" whichhas performed in famous nightclubs,television shows and on records.

Born in New York, he was quickto feel the lure of the country. Heleft Harvard to thumb his way acrossAmerica in a search for folk music.On 'the road he learned to play thelong-necked banjo for which he isfamous today. His knowledge of theAmerica folklore and songs landedhim a research job with the Libraryof Congress. Since his initial trip hehas made several other jaunts to thebackwoods of America in the searchfor material. His long-playing rec-ord, "Darling Corey" (available atthe music library) contains a selectionof American folk songs and somne ofhis best banjo solos. With WoodieCuthrie, Alan Lomax and severalothers, Seeger formed the groupcalled, "People's Songs Incorporated."The purpose of this organization is toaid writers of folksongs in gettingtheir works published and to makethe folksongs available to singers.

IRain Brings LosslTo Engineer Nine

by Stephen Edelglass '56If early season results are any in-

dication, Roy Merritt's varsity base-ball team should be one of the powersin the Greater Boston area this year.Their record stands even at one winand one loss with the Coast GuardAcademy pulling out a tainted 2-1victory at New London and M.I.T.beating Boston University by a 5-4score at Briggs Field on Monday.

Five Runs Rained OutMisfortune caused the downfall of

the Engineer diamondmen on Satur-day at the United States Coast GuardAcademy as Junior right-hander TedSlosek pitched a tremendous two-hit-ter in the Merrittmen's opener. Slo-sek handcuffed the Sailors all the wayin a steady drizzle, with a wet balland a slippery mound to work on.Coast Guard tallied two unearnedmarkers on an error by third-sackerBob Lait, to take a 2-1 lead. TheTechmen had previously led 1-0 withan earned tally in the fourth.

In the top of the fateful ninth inn-ing, the Engineers playing aggressiveball, shelled starter Daniels off thehill with two big runs. His successorfaired no better having another runsqueezed in and finally two morepunched over by a wicked center fieldsingle poled by heavy hitting back-stop, Paul Valerio. This made thescore 6-2 in Tech's favor.

At this point, after a dubious in-crease in precipitation, the umpires

Dr. James R. Killian, president ofthe Institute, released the followingstatement on Wednesday evening asTHE TECH was going to press.

"Before going to Washington, pro-fessors Martin and Anrdur, who tes-tified before the House Committee onun-American Activities had given acomplete lreport of their activities torepresentatives of the Institute. Theinformation they have given, togetherwith their testimony before the Con-gressional committee is being studiedby a committee of the faculty and bythe executive committee of the Cor-poration. When our investigation iscompleted M.I.T. will announce itsdecision with respect to these mem-bers of its staff, as well as ProfessorsArguimbau and Levinson, whose tes-timony before the committee is, ofcourse, not yet available to the In-stitute.

Re-open Struik Case"In the light of the testimony pre-

sented today, the Institute's govern-ing bodies will also re-examine thecase of Professor Dirk J. Struik, whohas been under suspension since hisindictment in Middlesex county.

Discussion LimitedSince considerable preliminary work

had been done on the proposals beforethey were submitted to the committeefor a vote, there was little organizedopposition to the majority of them.However, several did come under fireby various members of the commit-tee, and were amended.

Following is the text of the changesapproved:

"That activities shall not sit on In-stitute Committee individually, butshall form an Activities Council andelect one voting member to InstituteCommittee representing all activities.

"That sub-committees of InstituteCommittee shall not sit on InstituteCommittee.

"That the Association of WomenStudents retain their one representa-tive to Institute Committee.

"That the Commuters elect tworepresentatives to Institute Commit-tee; to be elected at large by all com-Imuters.

"That the Dormitories elect fourrepresentatives to Institute Commit-tee.

"That each Class elect two repre-sentatives to Institute Committee, onebeing the president of the class andthe other elected at large by all mem-bers of his class.

"That the Vice President of Insti-tute Committee be elected at large byall undergraduates, on the same ballotas the president, and be a votingmnember of Institute Committee.

"That the approved changes shallsupercede all conflicting provisions inthe present constitutions and by-lawsof the Undergraduate Association andall other undergraduate organizations,and be incorporated into these con-stitutions and by-laws where applic-able.

"That the approved changes pertainto the 1954-1955 Institute Committeeand take effect at the 1954 Springelections."

New Parking :AreaFor Undergraduates

Dormitory Committees consideredandl passed two proposals at theirregular meeting in the Baker HouseMaster Suite Lounge on Tuesdaynight, April, 21. The/first proposaldealt with a parking lot to replacethe space consumed in building thenew auditorium. The second was con-cerned with Open House violators.

It was announced that a parking lotis to be constructed behind BurtonHlouse. The lot will hold about two-hundred cars and will be used by un-dergraduates only. It will be built af-ter the removal of trees and a shedwhich now stands in the area.

It was also proposed that namesof convicted Open House violators,along fwith their punishments be re-eased to THE TECH.

through the, mailThe faUolDing letter was written by the

Editor of The Toghhnology R¢view.

To the Editor of THE TECH:There has been loud hue and cry in

the editorial and mail columns of THETECH to the effect that the rightsand privileges of M.I.T. students arebeing abridged by action of DeanBowditch acting as a fully authorizedrepresentative of the Administration.there have been altogether too fewrecognitions of the fact that responsi-bilities are a concomitant of rights,without which privileges become merelicense.

The stickers which were pastedon the doors of many offices and class-rooms-and even on the outside ofHayden Library-to greet membersof the Faculty and student body aftera three-day holiday have been suc-cessful in drawing attention to thisissie. But the defacement of property-- especially at a time when very fewpersons -were on hand to serve as adeterring influence-is neither Ameri-can nor a gentlemanly act; certainlyit is not a mature -way of settlingdifferences of opinion or of reaching

la meeting of minds.If the student body as a whole is

truly sincere in its belief that it iswilling and able to conduct itself withresponsible maturity, it has an excel-lent opportunity, through the InstituteCommittee, to ferret out those re-sponsible for this act. The least thatcould be asked of the guilty person,or persons, is that they make frankacknowledgment of their indiscretionby apologies to Dean Bowditch as wellas to the student body as a whole, andthat they remove the stickers prompt-ly and neatly.

"Freedom cannot come as a gift. Itcannot be bestowed. Freedom must beearned--dearly purchased, and theprice is responsibility."

BEVERLY DUDLEY '35April 21, 1953

To the Editor of THE TECH:At the present time, many of our

dormitory residents are trying to con-vince the administration that we aremature, responsible people, able tomanage our own affairs and willingto respect the rights of the Institutewithout undue regulation by the ad-ministration. What a blow to ourcause to find some irresponsible per-son or group covering the walls, win-dows and show cases of the Institutewith antagqnistic stickers.

This type of thing is remindful ofpre-field-day tactics, from which theInstitute has not yet fully recovered.It is the great paradox at Tech todaythat in their attempts to be recog-nized as being mature and respon-sible, students act so childishly andcarelessly.

Surely it is the wish of the greatmajority of the student body thatsuch disgraceful things should not oc-cur. They discredit the students andthe Institute, especially to outsiderswho expect much more of the Techman.

The tone of the protest is also some-thing of which we must be ashamed.Instead of the representation of aspirit of cooperation and striving forharmony, it apes the type of sloganwhich the Communists use to divideand defeat us in Europe: "Ami gohome.': No, we can never be proudof this type of tactics.

It takes only a little thinking torealize that only when such immature

Dorm LibraryReading RoomNowRenovated

Occupancy of the newly renovatedreading room in the Engineering Li-brary is anticipated within the nextweek. This is the first improvementmade on this library since 1916. Ithad since become a difficult place inwhich to study because of poor light-ing and acoustics and has been the ob-ject of -several recent studies madeto remedy this situation. The resultof these studies is a new hanging ceil-ing which gives all the necessary im-provement, without destroying theestfietic value of the overlookingGreat Dome.

Twenty Ton CeilingThis ceiling has been designed by

Professor Herbert L. Beckwith of theDepartment of Architecture. Itweighs twenty tons and is supportedby four three inch wide posts eachfifty two feet long and suspendedfrom the Dome. The ceiling holds142 four foot fluorescent light bulbsenclosed in 165 shades of plexiglassdesigned to give a high level of in-tensity with very little shadow andthus remove the need for desk lamps.To improve its acoustical properties,1,065 pounds of fibreglass carpetthe top of the new ceiling while finsare placed on the lower surface toachieve this end. The ceiling doesnot cover the entire room but is soplaced that the outer perimeter ofthe floor is open and any noise origi-nating there will rise to the domeabove making this floor area an idealspot for any necessary activity. Ineluded in the renovation has beenthe complete overhauling of the ven-tilating system and the badly neededpainting and patching of the GreatDome's inner surface.

Long Range PlanningWith the completion of this new

lighting and acoustical system an-other step has been taken in the In-stitute's long ranged program for themodernization and consolidation of itslibrary system. This system will becentred Iabout the Charles HaydenMemorial Library which will housethe main administrative body of thelibrary as well as its Science and Hu-manities sections.

Blore To ComeThus the work on the Engineering

Library is only the first stage in aplan to completely revamp its struc-ture. The second step may come thissummer if the necessary funds car.,be obtained. This will include a corn-plete rearrangement of organizatior,in an attempt to make the hibraryImuch more accessible and useful to-!all those in need of its -knowledge.

ANOTHER FORM OF FREEDOM

The announcement earlier this week of the testimony of sev-erat M.I.T. professors before the House Un-American ActivitiesCommittee brings once again to the fore the question of academicfreedom and congressional investigations. Academic freedom isthe liberty to examine critically and to discuss freely the facts inall fields of learning and the search for knowledge whether byexperience, reason, debate, or intuition. It stands in the teachingprofession as a Code of ethics and principle to insure a certainamount of integrity that is necessary in any legitimate profession.

That code is being challenged today, for there is a tendencyto restrict academic freedom in time of crisis; to create an ortho-doxy by which all things can easily be measured and classified.Attacks upon it, therefore, are symptoms of insecurity of our ownstatus. Conformity cannot, however, be forced into the field ofknowledge. For free inquiry, open debate, and investigation of thevery basis of his society-and its alternatives-are the very thingsupon which the scholar thrives. To oppose this search for truthcan only indicate a fear that our system is inferior to others. Thoseof us who are firmly convinced that our "way of life" is superiorto other alternatives, need not fear such inquiry.

The only valid basis for the investigation of higher educationlies then, not in the fear of students questioning conformity butin a fear of indoctrination and prevention of the free interplay ofideas. Are not the colleges themselves, however, capable of suchinvestigation? The general implication of suspicion and distrust,the tendency toward a conformity of ideas, an inclination towardsilence and self-censorship are all products of mass investigationsby "outside" congressional groups. "A cat can clean itself, butdislikes being given a bath."

President Killian and a faculty-administration committee arenow discussing the case of Professor Martin and other professors'who have admitted to being former communists. The present situ-ation, however, differs from that of Professor Struik who is undercriminal indictment and is on leave of absence awaiting trial.Professors Amdur and Martin have only admitted to past affilia-tion in the Communist Party. If it can be shown that these men.are of closed mind and are disposed to distorting the truth, thenshould they be dismissed; but on these grounds and no other, bethey narrow-minded Republicans or left-wing radicals.

In the face of the evidence before us we feel that these menhave done nothing to deprive them of their teaching positions. Todo so would be to accuse them of crimes which only a court of lawhas the power to prove.

AGAIN

A large step forward was taken this week in the field of stu-dent autonomy. We hail it as an indication that students' demandsto manage their own affairs and be given opportunities to provetheir ability to accept responsibility are being recognized.

At a meeting with Dormitory and House Committee memberslast Tuesday, Dean Bowditch announced that the use of the"Dolmitory Patrols" to report violations of Open House rules andinfractions of dormitory regulations will be entirely left up to thedecisions of the individual houses. If the dormitory does intend tomake use of the House Patrol they are assured that the only reportmade will be to the house chairman directly. No report will befiled with the house superintendant-or the dean's office-unlessmade by the house committees themselves.

Dean Bowditch has further promised that the House Patrolswill be notified NOT to take notice of infringement of such rulesif the individual houses prefer to enforce them on their own.

We heartily commend this stand. It should indicate to all thata firm expression of student opinion can-and will-affect adminis-tration policy as long as the students are willing to conduct them-selves responsibly.

Each HouseComnmittee, in the next few days, is toreview the problems of enforcementof Open House Rules and other regu-lations to decide whether or not itwishes to use the services of theHouse Patrol and if so, is to work outwithlL the'Dean's Office the administra-tive details of arranging for theHouse Patrol to work for the HouseComnmittee.

"The Student Government repre-sentatives in the dormitories and theDean's Office are further unanimous-ly in agreement on the following:1.) That it is clear that the Institutedoes believe in Student Governmentand the traditions of student autono-my at M.I.T. and, is prepared to doeverything possible'to further the suc-cessful operation of Student Govern-ment; 2.) That it is mutually under-stood that there is absolutely nopresent intention on the part of theDean's Office to recommend anychanges in the Open House Rules asset and circulated by Student Gov-ernment. In 1951, the setting of OpenHouse Rules by Student Government,with the approval of the Dean's Of-fice, was delegated to Student Gov-ernment with the understanding thatStudent Government would enforce the rules and that this whole ar-rangement was on trial pending theappointment of a new Dean of Stu-dents.

"Because of widespread misunder-standing of the significance of thetests conducted by AI.I.T., I wish tooutline the conditions under whichM.I.T. undertook the tests and theimplications of the report it pre-sented.

Pro-fessor Weber agreed to assist, acting,with the full knowledge and approvalof the Institute.

"Last October, the Senate SelectCommittee on Small Business re-quested M.T.T. to provide ProfessorWebber with the facilities to makelaboratory tests on the battery addi-tive. It was explained that the com-mittee did not have funds to go toa commercial laboratory. While :M.I.T.ordinarily does not carry o-n suchtests, the Institute felt in the publicinterest it should make its facilitiesavailable to the committee.

decided to call the game, erasing thefive run M¢.I.T. ninth and leaving thescore at 2-1,

It was a heartbreaker for Slosekto lose, as he hurled masterful ball. Itisn't very often that a pitcher getsbeaten while giving up only two hitsand no earned runs. Valerio's catchingwas splendid, and Captain RonThomnpson shared defensive honorswith left fielder Bob White. Thomp-s6n. threw out a runxners from deepshortstop after slipping on the moistinfield and sitting uncomfortably onthe seat of bis new uniform trousers.White galloped a country mile to hauldown a lengthy drive, the only wellhit ball off Slosek during the wholeZgame.

Tech outhit the Academy five hitstt-o two, omitting the rash of hits inthe ninth. The losing pitcher was theCoast Guard's Daniels.

Tech 5-Boston U. 4O)n Monday afternoon Hugh Haulser

followed in Slosek's footsteps andhurled a beautiful three-hit ball game'against a strong reind and Boston'University to come out on top of a|5-4 score. The game Inas close|th-oughout with the outcome not be-|ing decided until the last out wsas|registered.

BoWston TUniversity moved out quick-|ly in the first -two innings to take a|two run lead on two walks, an error|by the pitcher, a tremendous blast tocenter by backstop, Valerio and an-

other double by first baseman BenSack. The big catcher, Valerio, couldhave had a triple had he been anyfaster because the ball sailed wellover the center fielder's head androlled towards the tennis courts.Sack's drive was another long oneinto center. Tech never relinquishedits lead and the final score stood at5-4-.

Hauser, a sophomore, was by far theoutstanding player on the diamond.Not only did he have to pitch againstB. U. but he had to buck a strong wind which made it vitually impos-|sible to throw a curve' ball. The only|criticism of his pitching was that hetook too mouch time in his motion with men on base. B3.U.'s fast team wvas quick to capitalize on this flaw. Other|outstanding players were Ben SackIand Paul Valerio offensively with|general 'all around good defensiveIplay. Catcher Herman Ryran providedvociferous suppor't from the benlch.

Princeton Trips

Beaver Ru'ggersN.Y. Club Loses

In a pair of games last weekendthe M[.I.T. Rugby team lost to Prince-ton at Princeton on Saturday by ascore of 8-5, and on Sunday won a16-3 victory over the New YorkRugby Club in New York.

The game at Princeton was playedin the rain, and was an evenlymatched contest with the breaks de-ciding the outcome. Princeton scoredtwo quick trys late in the first haff,and converted one of them to Butthem in the lead at half-time, 8-0.(Ed. Note: To the uninitiated, a try isthree points, the conversion two.)M.I.T. came back in the second halfas Chuck Johnson scored a try andTom Hoffman converted to make thescore 8-5. Although the Tech rug-|gers pressed the Princetonians hard,the rest of the game failed to pro-duce another score, and the game |ended with Princeton winning, 8-5.

Crush New YorkcersOn Sunday in New York, the team

finally realized their potential andcrushed the slower New Yorkers withan excellent example of teamwork andalert play. New Yolk scored first ona field boal to take a 3-0 lead, andM.I.T. tied the name up near theend of the first half as Walt Hollis-ter scored on a beautiful ron throughthe entire New York backfield. Inthe second half the team really gotrolling, and scores came thick andfast. Holister scored again, and John iCam got a tly and converted to makethe score 13-3. The Knal three points |came on a brilliant play by fullbackAustin Whillier, as he followed uphis own long kick to the New Yorkfullback. The New Yorker fumbledthe ball, Whillier picked it up, anlcrossed the goal foi- a tly to make it16-3.

In both of the games the Tech fort wards played their usual stlong andpressing game, and in the New Yorkgame especially the backline showedtheir speed to very good advantage.This year's team is shaping up into acrack outfit, and should give any teamin the East a good game for theirmoney.

started their season on an unauspi-cious note by losing to' the HarvardUniversity freshmen by a 7-1 score.A year ago, Harvard also won, but bya 21-4 coount.

Things aren't as bad as the scorewould seem to indicate. The fact thatthis game was the Tech opener, thatpitcher Fred Culick wvas out with asore arm, and that number one pitch-er, Marshall Rogan, only pitched thelast two innings, all paint a differentpicture.

Cold weather hampered the outdoorinterclass meet last Saturday after-noon, postponing the completion ofthe competition to a later, as 'yet un-decided, date. With the major part ofthe meet completed, the Class of '54has surprised by taking the lead by1/3 of a point over t'ne Frosh andseven points in front of the Sophs.The general expectations had beenfor a freshman win, with the Sophsa close second.

The Juniors capitalized on theirstrong superiority on the track to pullahead of the Sophs by 17 points, and19 in front of the Frosh. As expected,though, 256's superb field competitors-all but evened up the score, fallingshort by a mere 1/3 of a point. '55, onthe other hand, surprisingly, failed to
