Killian's Statement:Since I am undertaking a

post that has not existed before,it is obviously premature for me toanticipate by comment now anyfuture policies or actions. My firstresponsibility is to make myselfavailable as promptly as possibleto carry out the instructions anddesires of the President.in behalf of the President I shall

move as rapidly as possible to marshal the best scientific and engin-eering judgement and creative tal-ent in the United States and tomake it available to the Presidentfor the formulation of nationalpolicy which involves science andtechnology° The President has prov-ided a means to integrate Americanscience in every proper way withnational policy-making, and rI shallseek to facilitate this by everymeans at my disposal. A v e r ystrong scientific advisory group isan essential part of the plan, andthe recruiting of this group willproceed with the utmost dispatch.

The President has clearly statedhis strong convictions about theimportance of science and scien-tific education to our national lifeani security and his desire thateverything possible be done to encourage scientific research and education and to strengthen any de-ficiencies.In addition to the Department of

Government, I will work in closeassociation w it h such importantexisting agencies as the NationalScience Foundation and the Nat-ional Academy of Sciences to fur-ther the President's objectives.

Anmerican science and engineer-ing possess tremendous strengthand vigor; and if we proceed di-ligently and decisively, w e ca nmaintain them in the flourishingstate required by our national wel-fare and security and advance ste-adily in technological strength andachievement. The potential for ad-vance is tremendous, and knowingas I do the sense of urgency, mis-sion, and dedication in the scient-ific and engineering community ofthe United States, I am confidentthat it can do the job required bythe nation and that we can meetany crisis just as the AmericanPeople have always been able toImeet any crisis_m

Westgate Soon To Be Demolisbedl;New Athletic Field PlannedInArea

The recent installation of largerWest Campus tennis court facilitiesand a grass-protection fence at thenorth end of Briggs Athletic Fieldmark the beginning of a long-rangeprogram which will include the re-moval of Westgate and WestgateWest within the next two years.These living units, now occupied bymarried students, will be removed byApril 1, 1959, to make way for anextension of the athletic fields, saysDean of Residence F. G. Fassett, Jr.

No New Assignments

No new assignments have beenmade to Westgate since July of thisyear, said Fassett, and its residents,in cooperation with the office of Stu-dent Residence, are now beginning tomove about within the units in orderto concentrate the vacancies and ex-pedite the removal of the buildings.The Westgate Council, headed byGerald W. Camiener, has elected Ger-rit H. Toebes chairman of the Ad-visory Committee which is working

with Dean Fassett in controlling theproblems of logistics which are in-volved.

New Athletic Fields PlannedAfter the removal of Westgate

the land will be used largely for ath-letic fields, says Richard L. Balch,Director of the MIT Athletic Asso-ciation. Plans showing the boundariesof individual fields or this site wereapproved by the Institute two yearsago. The block of twelve tenniscourts has already been installed, butno money has been allocated for fur-ther work as yet, said Balch. Com-pletion of the project is expectedsoon after the land has been cleared,however.

Although the removal of Westgatewill benefit athletics at MIT, it alsoposes a problem: How and where canthese living quarters be replaced?When asked about the Institute'splans for future dormitory construe-

trong MIT Soccer Team Tops Brown 2.1;righ TechDef enseStopsLastQua.terRatly

This Browo block momentarily stops the Beaver Soccermen in their marchon to a 2-1 victory.

Wednesday afternoon on BriggsField, the MIT Soccer team onceagain proved why it is rated one ofthe best soccer teams in New En-gland as it defeated a tough Brownteam, 2-1. Last year Brown won overthe Beavers .5-3, but the play wascompletely reversed this year as theentire Tech team seemed set on re-venge.

Early in the first quarter, Brownmanaged to control the ball, but couldnot penetrate the tight Beaver de-fense. As the quarter progressed,however, the Engineers' attack beganto click, and with ten seconds left inthe quarter, Ernesto Macaya '60drove in from right wing to put theball into the nets after a shot byManny Penna '60 was deflected bythe Brown fullback.

Pres. Eisenhower called Dr. Killianto Washington last night, and charg-ed him with the task of leading theUnited States back to a position oftechnological supremacy.

Shortly afterward, Dr. Killian an-nounced the appointment of ChancellorStratton as acting President of theInstitute.

Dr. Killian's official position willbe Special Advisor to the Presidentfor Science and Technology. The Pres-ident announced his appointment ina nationally televised speech at eighto'clock last night.

In his new post, the President said,Dr. Killian will have the followingduties: to help reduce inter-servicerivalry, to choose priorities, and tomarshal all possible talent and re-sources for major projects. Eisenhowersaid that he will draw on the fullabilities of scientists and engineers,of all countries in the new programs tobetter this country's position in scien-tific achievements.

Eienhower also said of Dr. Killianthat he "enjoys my confidence and theconfidence of all his colleagues inscience and engineering".

Dr. Killian said last night that hefirst learned of his appointment tendays ago. Since then, he has spentmost of his time in Washington andwill return there in a few days, hesaid.

The Executive Committee of theCorporation approved Dr. Stratton'sappointment last Friday.

Dr. Killian, interviewed last nightover WTBS, expressed regret at leav-ing MIT and said that he would re-turn as soon as possible. Dr. Killianwould probably be spending severalweek-ends here.

Dr. Stratton called Killian's leaving,a "terrible loss to the institute" butstated that the Institute will not standpat during his tenure. "We will con-tinue to see things through .... wemust carry on".

Dr. Stratton forsees a greater em-phasis on basic research with MIT atthe forefront. But, he emphasized, theInstitute's primary function is aneducational one. "Underlying t h ewhole scientific program," he said, "isthe task of bringing people to read-iness.'

ecrwd Audience He ar s BohirOn Growth Of Classical Physics

Niels Bohr traced the developmentof classical physics through ten keyexperiments, Tuesday evening, andb'rought his overflow audience to thebrinlk of Einsteinian relativity.

More than fifteen hundred personsjammed every corner of Kresge Au-ditorium to hear the venerable Dane'sfirst of six lectures on "The Philo-sophical Lesson of Atomic Physics",inaugurating the Compton Lectures.It was the largest crowd ever to fillKresge.

(Professor Bohr's second lecture,last night, dealt with "Atomic The-ory and the Quantum of Action". Histhird will be next Thursday on, "ThePrinciples of Quantum Mechanics".)

The ten experiments, each illustrat-ed by a slide projected onto a screenin the center of the stage, were usedby Professor Bohr to illustrate morethan the verification of certain phys-ical equations. Repeatedly, he urgedhis audience to look behind the sim-ple experimental facts to the "kindsof arguments" used-to the symn-metry arguments, the relativistic anddeterministic arguments, to the grad-ual development of an objective de-scription of nature. The experiments

1. Archimedes' static equilibriumexperiments using weights and a pul-ley.

2. Galileo's "Leaning Tower ofPisa" experiment.

3. Vector components of velocityin a projectile shot from a cannon.("The cannon," said Dr. Bohr, "is avery old-fashioned means of sendingup a missile.")

4. Interaction of bodies-H-uygens'experiment with a -man in a movingboat and a man on shore, each view-ing a collision in a different frame ofreference.

5. Kepler's Laws and the New-tonian explanation of them.

6. Centrifugal force with a bucketon a string.

7. and 8. Oersted's and Faraday'swork relating to electricity and mag-netism.

9. Maxwell's equations.10. Relativity of time-clocks in

different systems running at differ-ent rates. To an observer in the firstsystem, the clocks in the second sys-tem run slower than his own. But,to the observer in the second, theclocks in the first run slower.

Niels Bohr's GiftProfessor Niels Bohr comes to the Institute not merely

as a passing lecturer, but as a full member of the MITacademic community. Throughout November he will beliving at nearby 100 Memorial Drive and working ir. aBuilding Six office.

Aside from its being necessary for the preparation of

his lectures, Professor Bohr's residency here is both aninteresting and enriching experience for all of us, and avery fitting thing-fitting because Professor Bohr, thoughit may sometimes be overlooked, obviously belongs to theacademic world. His role is no different from that of anyother professor: to teach and to do research.

The great appeal of Professor Bohr, the quality whichmakes him an idol of his students and his colleagues is hiscreativity. He is more than just another teacher weavinga pedagogical shroud. He has been at the forefront of theresearch world, creating the models of nature which ulti-mately are diluted and shaped for the textbooks. He cantell us not only the principles of physics, but the argumentsand the argumental process which led to their discovery.In the coming lectures, we will be looking forward to themoments when he communicates to us that gift.

More RiverfrontThough the "back door" of the Institute is a smoky con-

glomerate of factories and slums, its "front door" has al-ways been the Charles. And, though we often gripe aboutthe river's high specific gravity, its special blend of Newtonruralism, where it rises, and neon skyline, where it ends,has given pleasure to the naturalist in all of us. Among ourfondest wishes, for the last forty years, has been to creepslowly up and down the river until the MIT campus

The Tech

stretches from the Longfellow Bridge to the Cottage Farm.The announced plans for Westgate and the river-front

west of Burton, bring the Institute a good deal closer tothe realization of that wish. It will take several years, buteventully another dormitory will face the river and athousand feet of new playing field will be added. Thestimulating effeft which these new facilities will undoubted-ly have on the spirits of future students cannot be measuredin dollars.

Let's listen in while J. Eager Freshman gets a lesson onthe theory of doubled contracts, courtesy of I. M. Fish,president of the committee which bears his name.

"Excuse me, Mr. Fish," says J. E. F. "Can you enlightenmre as to the proper use of the business double?"

"Why, certainly," replies I. M. F., in an aura of con-descension. "Always double when you think you can seta contract."

Having absorbed this priceless bit of gospel, J. E. F. nowdouble-times to the nearest bridge table and soon comes upwith the West holding as shown above. "Clearly," hedecides as the small slam is bid, "South has the ace ofspades." "Just as clearly, my king and queen will wintricks, ergo . . ."

"Double," cries J. E. F., having learned his lesson well.The jack of hearts is opened and yields to the king.

South, now in possession of information as to the probablelocation of the spade honors (by virtue of the double),proceeds accordingly. He cashes his red suit aces, overtakesthe diamond queen with the king, ruffs a heart, reentersthe dummy with the club king, arnd ruffs another heart.The ace of clubs is played, a small club is trumped indummy, followed by a diamond ruff in declarer's hand.This sequence has reduced all holdings to three cards,while West has been impatiently following suit. South isleft with the A J 10 of spades, and West still holds hisoriginal K Q 3. And now, declarer, the bounder, leads thejack of spades, forcing the somewhat disillusioned J. E. F.to win the trick and lead away from his K 3 into South'stenace.

The traditional moral can be drawn from a set of simplecalculations. (1) Points risked by information given todeclarer through double-value of game and slam bonus, orabout 1500 points. (2) Extra points derived from one trickset by virtue of double-100.

MIT Students Hear Soft-Spoken Bohr Uses New Mike;Bohr Lecture, Talk r @ t 4

DifcultieEs. 98Des~te Prelim ChecksA tlnformalSeminars

Dr. Niels Bohr, who is perhaps theworld's most widely revered scien-tist, delivered two of his series ofsix Karl Taylor Compton Lectures atMIT this week.

Dr. Bohr, who arrived in this coun-try two weeks ago, lives with hiswife in an apartment near MIT over-looking the Charles River. Everymorning he walks to the Institute tospend the day in a physics depart-ment office working on the final man-uscript of his lectures. Sometimes helunches with scientists, but he oftenwanders into one of MIT's cafeteriasand strikes up a conversation withstudents. "My name is Bohr," he willsay, introducing himself as if hedidn't expect anyone would ever haveheard of him.

Seminars and Open MeetingsDr. Bohr is very fond of discus-

sions. Three seminars with membersof the faculty and students have beenarranged in his honor. He will alsoparticipate in two question-and-an-

A new wireless microphone is be-ing used by Dr. Niels Bohr in his lec-ture series. Although the usual first-night "bugs" developed Tuesday, Dr.Peterson, Bohr's assistant, describedthe initial use as the "mnost success-ful public lecture the Doctor hasgiven."

The system has been under devel-opment for several years. However,Voc-O-Port, the first commerciallysuccessful apparatus, has been on themarket only a year. Voc-O-Port con-sists of a small, sensitive micro-

phone worn by the speaker. This isconnected to a small battery-power-ed transmitter also carried by thespeaker., The signal is beamed to thesystem's receiver over a three-footantenna, which Dr. Bohr wore in-side his pant leg. From the receiverthe signal can be fed into any broad-cast system, in this case Kresge PA.

Trouble DevelopsBecause he has such a soft voice,

Dr. Bohr was very interested wheninformed that the new system wouldbe used for his lecture series. Hisfirst stop on reaching the States wasMIT to test it, after which he flewto Washington. Preliminary testswere very successful. However, some-thing seemed to go wrong Tuesdaynight. Every time Dr. Bohr turnedto face the audience, his words be-came inaudible. At last Prof. MorrisCohen, chairman of the Committeeon General Education which arrang-ed the series, rose and tried to ad-just the equipment. Thereafter, it

worked approximately 70%o of thetime.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1951,

Notes On The First Bohr LecturwIt was not a command performance of "My Fair Lady" that drew Ba

precedented crowds to Kresge Auditorium Tuesday night, but was instead thefirst of the Karl Taylor Compton Lectures, given by a man with a far moresubtle dramatic appeal. People undoubtedly came to hear Niels Bohr for variety of reasons; some out of curiosity and a desire to witness the grealphysicist's "summing up", as it were, and some with a genuine interest in whalhe had to say. At any rate the standing ovation accorded Dr. Bohr as he rose t,ispeak is powerful proof of a general enthusiasm to learn the ways of bo0l iphysics and physicists.

Dr.-Bohr's talk had a dual purpose; in the first place to summarize an,@show the limitations of classical physics, and secondly, to provide an introdu-ti0oto the new ways of thinking which subsumed the classical laws.

From Dr. Bohr's point of view, the first important step in enabling peopleto generalize about nature, to create a science, was the process of objectifyiniexperience. For the Greeks, this was close to impossible. According to Dr Bohr"It was actually not found possible in ancient Greece to liberate oneself fro0such human experience as exertions by movements of our bodies, especially 0ocourse, by fast running, or even from the motives of our actions . " Laa

however, Gallileo and Kepler were able to idealize the problems of bodies motion, and, what is the same thing, separate the relevant from the irrelcvnin formulating these problemns.

But this was only a part of Dr. Bohr's central theme. Objectificatio:allowed a six-coordinate specification of the state of a system, and, as a rcsuh$a knowledge of the system's past and future history. This determinism Waextended by Maxwell's electromagnetic theory. Even relativity is "a conapleton of classical physics (where) one can still maintain a deterministic position.

But, Dr. Bohr said, "We will see thyt2.the idea of determinism loses its logi,~

cal possibilities of application." Thsconcept of simultaneity, and its con!!~nection with ideas about causation, is!thanks to Einstein, "relative and dependent upon the observer," Dr. Bohirsaid.

A closer examination or the ph:nomena with which Dr. Bohr cho0ito illustrate his talk will point up thii 'general theme.

By examining several experirments,

Bohr showed that by using synmmetry

one. could more fully understand th!Sfull physical meaning of phenomena.!s

The first example of using sym'remetry was the balancing of weight:Bohr showed without using any mrnathbgematical equations how the laws of0levers could be proved by syrnmery.-:

DR. NIELS BOHRThe second example was the classic

experiment of Gallileo at the Leaning Tower of Pisa. "The special point whichwas at issue was how different bodies of different weights would fall. It uas.

. . since the time of Aristophanes . . . assumed that a heavy body, which h.saa greater pull downwards, will fall quicker. Now Gallileo actually proved thatlight and heavy bodies, if we look apart from the small effect of air resistanceiactually fall equally quickly.

"But the symmetrical argument which came in here is that if we had twobodies released at the same time, they would fall (at the same rate) . .. And'if we wind a fine cord around them, we have, so to say, one heavier body, andthe gist of the argument is that the behavior of such a body should not dependon whether we choose to call it two small or one bigger."

"That is also a reminder of that kind of argument on which cIassical

physics developed."

Bohr then went on to show the fundamental separation of velocities inotheir various components. From Newton's Laws it was found that in principlkif one could calculate the momenta and positions of every particle, then theystate of all particles could be completely determined at any time in the future;that the system was completely deterministic. j

From the Newtonian determinism, Bohr went on to the electric and rnagnetic interaction with matter and the existence of free electromagnetic lwavedSThe existence of light and the finite time of propagation raised the question 0fabsoluteness of space and relative velocities. :

R.W. Magopian WinsTraffic Fine Appeal;Pleads His Own Case

Robert WV. Hagopian '58, accusedof speeding, took his case to Supe-rior Court and won acquittal in ajury trial last week.

Hagopian, a Course VIII seniorfrom Wrentham, handled his own de-fense. To the arresting officer's tes-timnony that he had seen Hagopiancut to the left of a row of stoppedcars at an excessive speed, Hagopiananswered that the arresting officer,separated from Hagopian by thebumper-to-bumper line, could nothave actually seen him for the requir-ed five hundred yards. This, Hago-pian said, was because the Mercedes-Benz 190SL, which he was driving,is too low to be visible.

Hagopian further argued that thearresting officer must have based hisarrest solely on the sound of the car.Since, Hagopian said, the "190SL"wvas in first gear, with the engineR.P.M. in excess of 6000, the officermight be falsely led to believe thatthe car's speed was excessive.

The alleged violation took place inNewton, July 23. Hagopian pleadednot guilty in Third I)istrict Court,August 15, and was found guilty inthe samine court, August 22, and fined$2 5-at which time he appealed toSuperior Court.

value as an inducement for industryor improved housing to take hold.The financial loss to the owner wouldbe paid by the Federal and City gov-ernments in such a case. Since muchof the land behind MIT along Vas-sar Street fulfills these requirements,it may be possible to buy and buildon it, Dean Belluschi said.

Also, it may be possible to buildon the land now occupied by theSmith House and Howard Johnson'srestaurant on Memorial Drive nearWestgate West, since the land isowned by MIT and the leases onthese buildings expire on Jan. 31,1961, says Assistant Treasurer P. A.Stoddard. However, all plans for fu-ture housing are indefinite at best,said Mr. Stoddard.

Charter Flight To

Europe OrganizesSecond Short Tr"pReacting to a tremendous response

from the travelminded contingent ofthe MIT community, the "MIT Char-ter Flight to Europe" organizationhas announced a second, shorter trip.

The dates and expenses for thisflight are designed to fit the vacationperiod and budget of the would-betravelers. Allowing five weeks in Eu-rope, it will leave New York on June15, and return from Paris on July 19.Because this is an off-season periodfor the airlines, the share of expensesper passenger will be only $280 forthe round trip.

Hundreds RespondAlready more than 200 people have

indicated inter-est in the flights byrequesting infolmation and applica-4.ion papers from the manager of thegrioup, Stewalrt Mott '59, who maybe contacted at 36 Alice St., Revere,or at REvere 8-5271.

The organization, in order to coin-ply with laws governing such schoolcharter groups, presented its consti-tution and by-laws to the ActivitiesCouncil on Wrednesday, October 30and received provisional Class "B'status.

The forwardline of Herb Johnson '58, Dale Rhee'60, Petey Villavicencio '60, ManuelPenna '60 and Ernesto Macaya '63once again proved too skillful for theopposing defense as they consistent-ly moved the ball deep into scoringterritory. The halfback line of An-drus Viilu '60, Bart Sensenig '58 andHuber Warner '58, provided the for-ward line with many fine passes andshowed relentless hustle at midfieldto make the difference in the game.

Dartmouth NextThe Beavers' teamwork was par-

ticularly sharp in this and has stead-ily improved as the season has pro-gressed. This wvill be a strong fac-tor when the Techmen meet a roughDartmouth squad tomorrow at 1:30p.m. on Briggs Field to end the regu-lar season play.

quarters Tech continued to dominateplay as the forward and halfbacklines played together beautifully andkept the ball away from Brown muchof the time. Further Beaver scoringwas averted only by many good savesby the visiting goaler. Midwaythrough the fourth qualrter, Pennaconnected on a rebounding ball andplaced it in the cornet of the goalbeyond the goaler's reach to increasethe Beavers' lead. At this pointBrown pulled up its halfback line ina desperate attempt to score and withonly six minutes left, the visitors'center forward scored on a fastbreak, to narrow the lead to one goal.The defense tightened and the re-mainder of the game was played upand down the middle of the fieldwith the Techmen in control as thefinal gun sounded.

MIT and Brown were the only colleges not to foul-out at least once; theother- teams lost precious points infouls in the close racing.

Eliminations Hampered ._. . . baThe eliminations for the races were

somewhat bedeviled by bad weatherplus Asian flu, but seven strong final-ists competed in the round robin se- la Wries. Tiey were: MIT, Brown, Har- Uvard, Trinity, Boston College, CoastGuard and Yale. Spinnakers wereused in the race, and each college FORwas represented by a crew of four.

Are you aware of the fact that over 40 per cent of

our sales are in the non-chemical field; that we

manufacture such products as "Winchester" firearms,

"Western" brass, "Western" cartridges, "Ramset" powder

actuated tools, "Olin" aluminum, "Frostkraft"

packaging materials and "Ecusta" fine papers?

We are completing the construction of a multi-million

dollar aluminum fabricating plant near Clarington, Ohio,

and are expanding our nuclear fuel program at

New Haven, Connecticut. We have recently established

a Metallurgical Research Division and are in

the process of staffing it.

As you can see, these are the types of operations

requiring engineers such as yourself. For more detailed

Grid Finals Begin SundayThe Athletic Association has an-

nounced the schedule for the roundrobin intramural football finals whichbegin this weekend. Opponents withineach division were arbitrarily selectedfor these finals, in which each leaguechampion will play every other leagueleader in order to select a divisionchampion. All games will be playedat two o'clock on either field two orfield four. The schedule is publishedat the end of this article.

Beta vs. DeltBeta Theta Pi and Delta Tau Delta,

unscored upon during regular leaguethis season, meet this Sunday in agame that should be marked by out-standing defensive play. The Betasboast the better offense, however, andshould manage to dominate the game.

The Delts rugged defense, whichaccounted for their 2-0 victory overTheta Chi, is anchored by all starlineman Joe Timms '58. Timms couldbe instrumental in upsetting the pass-ing punch of Rob Cross '59 to all starend Warren Goodnow '59. However,all star back Jim Russell '59, sup-ported by the aggressive Beta line,should account for most of the after-noon's ground gains and set up Betatouchdowns. The success of the Deltoffense will depend on all star backDan Holland's ability to find his ends,particularly Dan Michaels '60, throughthe tight Beta pass defense.

SAE vs. FijiThe second game in division A this

Sunday pits last year's champion,Sigma Alpha Epsilon, against PhiGamma Delta, which should prove tobe the outstanding game of the week-end. The powerful S.A.E. squad thathas compiled a streak of twenty-sixstraight games will find a worthyopponent in the spirited Fijis, whohave come out on top in the ruggedcompetition of League IV.

The offensive prowess of the Sailorslies mainly in their passing attack,led by quarterback Walt Humann '59.Hunlann, even without the servicesof Pete Hohorst, has two able re-

ceivers in end Fred Browand '59 andhalfback Bob Thomson '58. Yet, thiscombination has never met up withsuch obstacles as John Irwin '58,Bruce Blanchard '57, and Ed Pollard'60, the formidable Fiji forward wall.The Fijis will attempt to crack theS.A.E. defense, which has sufferedfrom the loss of linem-ian Bob MIcCul-lough '60, with a passing and runningattack engineered by quarterback AlBeard '59. Beard will direct his passesto all star end Chuck Ingraham '58and freshman A1 Gaston, interspersingthese passes with runs by Don Rey-nier '60 and Hal Smith '57. The out-come of this game, ho-ever, will de-pend on the extent to which the Fijiline can rush Humann.

I)ivision BTEP vs. Phi Mu Delts

The first game in Division B onSaturday will pit Tau Epsilon Phiagainst Phi Mu Delta. Both teamswill rely heavily on their passing at-tacks. The T.E.P.'s aerials will bethrown by Elliot Fineman '58 to allstar end Marty Goldstein '58 and DickPack '60. Defensive standout shouldbe Dick Rosen '58, offensive guard anddefensive end. The Phi Mu Deltapasses will probably go from JoeO'Connell '60 to Lennie Eng '58.Their defense is anchored by AlSchallenmuller '58.

Baker vs. 5:15Baker House takes on the 5:15 Club

in Saturday's second game. The 5:15Club, sparked by all star back JackPogarian, will find a tough opponentin the Baker House eight. Baker, pro-tected by the line of Frank Tapparo'60, Steve Halprin '60, and all starDick Sherman '58, will bank on thepassing combo of Mary Alper '59 toRon Rosenberg '59.
