"Our humanities di- vision is devoted primarily to teaching: but the best teachers in the humanities, as in other fields, are as a rule deeply com- mitted to scholarly research. To attract and hold such teachers we must encourage and reward research, and that is exactly what Old Dominion Foundation is helping us to do."

When theprofessor arrived promptly fiveminutes late, everyone rappedon their desks and then was veryattentive during the hour and ahalf of lecture. Apparently Feyn­man physics had not reachedHeidelberg yet for the lecturewas a demonstration lecture intraditional style. The lecturer'sdesk, much like the one in 201Bridge, was completely coveredwith apparatus.

Tn all, the professor gave about20 fairly simple - but interest­ing - experiments during thelecture while covering quite alot of material on thermo­dynamics. He did very littlewriting on the blackboard sothere was little note-taking bythe students. There was againrapping on desks as the profes­sor left at the end of an interest­ing lecture. I also visited thefirst year physics laboratory. Itpurposely had little fancy ap­paratus. The students are givenproblems. for instance measuresome physical constant, and thenmust create their own experi­ments with the simple equip­ment available to obtain theanswer. A far cry from Caltechlabs!

The greater internationality ofEuropean physics makes it in­teresting for students. The un­dergraduate physics student fromMadrid who showed me aroundCERN explained that there were715 other undergrads from allover Europe at CERN for thesummer. Unfortunately the y

The Danish director was veryenthusiastic about his work andexplained the finest details tome. I was also able to visit theYugoslav, Austrian, and Swissprinting plants. Unfortunately,most of the other plants do notpermit visitors for security reas­ons and I wasn't able to visitthe Courvoisier firm in Switzer­land or the Belgian state print­ing plant where some of themost artistic stamps are pro­duced. The visits I made showedme the wide variety of methodsused to print stamps and thusincreased my enjoyment ofstamp collecting - and of coursegave me some interesting con­tacts.

In Heidelberg, Germany, Imade my first visit to a physicsresearch center on the continent.This and other visits amountedto a seminar in contemporaryEuropean physics research andmodern physics.

(Editors' note: This is the lastof the reports written by recipi­ents of Junior Travel Prizes forlast summer.)

As the airplane touched downat Glasgow airport, I was bothexpectant and apprehensiveabout my first experiences onanother continent which weresoon to come. However, the ap­prehensiveness quickly passedas I almost immediately beganto get into the spirit of Scotland.It was a perfect Scotch morning- a light rain was falling. Thebus ride from the airport intothe city past farmers doing theirmorning chores and throughquiet villages of identical flatsgave me a perfect introductionto the Scotch countryside ..Glasgow Rush

Soon I was caught up in thebustle of Glasgow at noontimewith its crowded narrow streetsand young men with clicking,steel-plated heels. After a lunchof "shepherd's pie," I made myfirst of many visits to gothiccathedrals (in this case the Glas­gow Cathedral) and then left forEdinburgh.

Nowhere else in Europe ex­cept perhaps Salzburg, is thereas beautiful a combination ofthe medieval and the modern asthere is in Edinburgh. From thePrinces Street Gardens in thecenter of the city one can turnone way and be awed by thecastle which towers over thepark, and turn the other wayand see the exclusive PrincesStreet shops. While watchingfolk dancing in the Park the firstevening I ran into fellow Tech­man Terry Mast. I was quitesurprised but I soon becameused to such occurrences as Iagain accidentally met him inthe improbable places of theLondon and Paris subways. Af­ter two days in Edinburgh I al­most had the Scotch weatherpsyched out - the change fromSUn to hard showers comes sofast one must constantly watchthe clouds and be fast with therain coat.English Playboy

After Edinburgh, I touredsouthward through the Lake Dis­trict to London. Then after someside trips, a few days of the"play a night" routine in Lon­don, and several English highteas, I left for Copenhagen.

I had arranged for a visit tothe Danish Postal Museum andpostage stamp printing plantsince my rather unusual travelprize project was to study pos­tage stamp printing. This wasa logical project for me becauseI've been collecting stamps forover ten years and Europe wasthe best place to study stampprinting since the best and mostdiverse work is done there.

As a major sub-project I hadalso proposed to visit physicsresearch institutions in E!urope- also a logical project for aphysics snake. I'll mention moreabout Europe's physics later ..Stamp Muse'um

The director of the DanishPostal Museum gave me a tourof the museum where I saw forthe first time exhibits of ancientpostman costumes, old post wag­ons and boxes, and interiors ofold post offices. Exhibits likethese are almost non-existent inthe U.s. but standard in Europe.The next day I was introducedto the director of the stampprinting plant and given an ex­tensive tour.

The Danish plant formed quitea contrast to the U.S. Bureau ofPrinting and Engraving whichI had visited before leaving theUnied States. The Danish plant

There seems to be a rea­sonable chance for the physics department to provide calcula­tors to undergraduates. The problem has now arisen of wherethe machines are to be placed. The BOD suggested a centralplace while the IHe voted 4-3 to place them in the separatehouses.

The Tech bel ieves that the advantages of putting all ofthe machines in a centrol location outweighs the natural con­venience of a calculator in every House. The machines wouldhave more efficient use if they were in one place, thus eliminat­ing the problem of one House's machine being unused whilesomeone in another House is in need of one. The Houses maynot want to assume full financial responsibility for the repairsthat might be needed. The danger of such reluctance causinga House to restrict the use of or abandon one of the machineswould be avoided by a central calculator room.

Because the Institute provides the grad students with cal­culators free, the Tech urges the Institute to assume the fin­ancial responsibility for the machines. To provide for propercare of the machines, they might be kept in a locked room withkeys issued only to those who have demonstrated their abilityto operate calculators.

We repeat - let's calculate.

An unhappy situation, one in which some feelings are morebitter than warranted, has arisen with regard to the distribu­tion of tickets to Kennedy's Beckman address. Briefly, thesource of discontent is that, al though undergraduates hold 280tickets, 90 of those are in i:3lacker hands, 56 in Ricketts, 50 inPage, 38 in Lloyd, and 30 in Dabney, while Fleming has onlyJ4 and Ruddock only 2. (The rest of the tickets, by the way,were distributed 200 to grad students, 250 to faculty, 50 toemployees, J 00 to Associates and the President's office, 50 toTrustees, 30 to the press, etc.) The basic cause of this situa­tion was the availability of tickets in the bookstore before ev­erybody had received announcements of the speech. The mobscene in the bookstore and the "unexpected great appeal" ofKennedy are probably secondary effects. Rumor that ticketswere getting scarce made them go even faster.

Although the distribution by Houses is quite unequitable,no one seems to be worried except Ruddock (understandablyenough). To alleviate the discontent, we offer these appeals:Make the most of the afternoon talk on the Athenaeum lawn,where asking pertinent questions can be at least as valuableas hearing an address. Those of you with tickets: don't letthem go to waste, not when 5000 other people are clamoringfor seats. More important, undergraduates with unused ticketsshould give them to other undergrads, keeping the address forthe benefit of the academic community, not someone else.

The fair solution seems to be not a complete or partialredistribution of tickets - since that would increase the num­ber of unhappy people - but a promise (such as Drs. Pauland Munger, who are in charge, have given) to give a satis­factory number of extra tickets, which will be available fromvarious sources, to Fleming and Ruddock. And for the future,we bel ieve a much better method for undergrads is signing upin the Houses (after sufficient notice), with an equal or pro­portionate number of tickets for each House to be distributedwithin the House by chance.

The Ricketts House crew teamregained the Acme PerpetualTrophy last Friday night by de­feating Ruddock to close outtheir undefeated season. Bothlines were sloppy with Ruddockhaving three alternates andRicketts having one. Ricketts'time was 25.7 with two alter­nates, the second being timedby accident. The Ruddock timewas 28.3. Ron Constable, Rick­etts captain, was happy with thetime shown by his youthful teamand hopes for a sub-twenty-sec­ond line next season.

Cricket WinOver UCLA

Last Sunday as the light wasbeginning to fade and the smogwas at last receding, the CaltechCricket Club concluded an un­defeated season by edging U.C.L.A. in a dramatic and tense con­test, 110-103., The match com­menced at 1:15 p.m. Huttenbacklost the toss and for the initialtime this year Tech had to batfirst. U.C.L.A. struck early asMugambe was dismissed for aduck (0). Rispin quickly fol­lowed him to the sidelines withfour runs to his credit. Butworse was yet to come; DaveClough, the team's leading bats­man, mischit a bad ball and wascaught for two runs.

Caltech was now in the dismalposition of having three wicketsdown for only seven runs. For­tunately Richard Wade and In­der Cheema were able to stabil­ize the situation as they put on36 runs for the next wicket.Once more the position col­lapsed, however, as Caltech wentfrom 43 for three wickets to 60for seven wickets in the spaceof a few minutes. Again disasterwas avoided as the tail of thebatting order batted courage­ously to post a final total of 110runs.

The U.C.L.A. innings startedplacidly enough and it lookedlike the match was heading to­wards another dismal draw. Sud­denly Gjestland and Van Hornestarted to attack the bowlingand with twenty minutes to go,U.C.L.A. needed but ten runs towin with three wickets in hand.At this point Clough developedcomplete mastery over the bats­men and brought the match to aconclusion with U.C.L.A. stilleight runs short of victory.

by the alumni, who put up abrilliant defense and a trickybut not really devastating of­fense. Time after time, varsityrunners were stopped with onlyshort - and often negative ­yardage. Charging linemen wereable to hold the passing gamein check most of the time, andwhen needed the secondary wasalways there just to make sure.Thus, the varsity was held topractically Zot.

Meanwhile, Van Kirk wasable to run freely, both to theinside and the outside. His finerunning style was indicated bymore impressive jumping, twist­ing, leaping, and spinning movesthan Caltech has seen since 1957when he last graced our field.When desirable he was able tohand off to the other backs,notably Bob Liebermann, BobChristie, and Eid Kline, all ofwhom ran with speed and power.The varsity defensive secondarycovered its territory fairly well,and few passes were thrown byVan Kirk, since the runninggame was going so well. Thealumni were only able to scoreonce, however.

"THE PATSY"

I enjoyed some barely teen-ageboys who were playing there forthe only basketball game I hadduring the summer. I hitched aride in a truck on the cobbled"freeway" from Belgrade to Za­greb and then left the friendlycountry of Yugoslavia for Au­stria.

Thursday, May 28, 1964

Most of the time I traveled onmy Eurailpass, which used togive one three months unlimitedrail travel in any of the Westernbloc countries for $180. It is in·finitely convenient and fairlyeconomical but after talking toa lot of other traveling youngpeople in Europe I decided thathitchhiking is the best way toget to know the country. I usu­ally stayed in hostels and I will"ditto" all the good things DickBurgess said about them.

One of the greatest benefits ofthe trip to me was its manyfoldenhancement of my appreciationof the arts - especially the plas·tic ones. For example, it is im­possible to go to Rome withoutlearning something about Ber­nini or to Barcelona without en­countering the exuberant andaudacious "Neo-Gothic" buildingsof Antoni Gaudi. Thus the JuniorTravel Prize gave me an un­matchable introduction to thepeople, culture, and history ofEurope and a most exciting sum­mer.

Yugoslavia, however, was themost interesting country I visit­ed. I began my visit with threedays on the Dalmatian coast(which has the finest sun and seain Europe) and thence turned in­land to Bosnia and Hercegovinawhere the eastern heritage andpoverty of Yugoslavia are mostevident.

Fezzes and DonkeysMostar was the only place in

Europe where I was looked atcuriously as some obviouslystrange phenomenon. After see­ing many mosques, fezzes, anddonkeys, I left Mostar and Sara­jevo and went to Belgrade. HereI was confronted by the Cyrillicscript as well as the Serbo-Croat­ian language - but I got alongfine as one always does in Eu­rope. Belgrade is very modernbut definitely Yugoslavian ratherthan, say, English. Two eventsmade my visit there especiallymemorable. The first was Khru­shchev's visit and the moderate­ly warm welcome he was givenas he entered the city with Tito.The second and more importantevent was playing basketballthere. I had stumbled onto someoutdoor courts before in strangeplaces - behind the VaticanMuseum (this one was probablyfor the Pope) and in the middleof the fifth century part of Dub­rovnik - so I wasn't too sur­prised to find about ten courtsinside the ruins of Belgrade'sancient Kalemegdan fortress.

BY J. K. EVANSToday we will discuss dyna­

mite, which is rather an explo­sive subject. There are factionswhich feel that subjects withsuch impact should be kept un­der cover and not exposed toheat, but these people are fartoo cautious. Dynamite is actual­ly pretty safe stuff. Also, it iseven better than bad breath forkeeping people away.

Dynamite was invented in 5403B.C. by one Irving Ugg. Unfor­tunately there was a slight ac­cident and Irving and his for­mula were distributed overrather a wide area in a thin uni­form layer. The formula wasrediscovered at various intervalsthroughout the history of civil­ization - once in Pompeii, onceat Krakatoa. and once at Sam'sGeneral Alchemist and ChemicalShop - but on each occasion asad occurrence resulted in lossof the formula.Noble Nobel

Finally a fellow named Nohelleft the formula in the otherroom while he concocted hisoriginal batch, and since the Godof Explosions couldn't get Nobeland the formula at the sametime, he didn't bother. So theworld has dynamite.

The principal current use ofdynamite is making artificialearthquakes for geophysicists tolisten to. Of course a few mis­guided souls still try to minecoal, build roads, or murderwives with the stuff, but theseare wrong thinkers and are fad­ing into the minority. One enter·prising soul has a girl friendwho is terrified of thunder andearthquakes. Whenever he goesto visit her, he leaves a time­fused charge in the back yard.Twitch Flinch

We will close with the sadstory of Simeon Flinch, a good­hearted lad who worked in hisfather's general store in theFeenamint Mountains of Neva­da. Simeon was a lover of con­fections. One day he was over­joyed to discover several casesof long round taffy sticks in thestoreroom. Shouting with glee,Simeon fell to. Soft, chewy, fla­vorful - the taffy was really ex­cellent.

Unfortunately, Simeon waswearing braces, and in his ec­stasy of mastication, he groundhis jaws together with such vio­lence that he struck a spark.The explosion was seen for sev­en miles; three of Simeon's teethwere recovered from the under­carriage of a passing stratojet.Now, everyone in Flinch's Gen­eral Store wears brass braces.No sparks.
