This means that it has been diffi- cult for the government to kick out professors or students whom it would like to eliminate. This has been a constant annoyance to the government, and especi- ally to the military.. ." The government decree of July 29 meant that the rector and the deans of the university would henceforth operate under orders from the government.

The professor was most shock-ed at the degree of hatred exhi-bited by the shouting soldiers. "Ihave never faced hate-filled peo-ple before, and it is more fright-ening than I know how to de-scribe. These soldiers clearly hadbeen worked into a violent emo-tional state before they were sentin to attack us, and I wonderedwhat kind of preparation theyhad received to produce this ha-tred. ..

Argentine President Ongania. Inhis letter, referring to the July29 incident, he stated:

"As far as I know, no explan-ation has been offered for thisbehavior. It seems only to reflectthe hatred of the present govern-ment for the people of the univer-sities, a hatred that is incompre-hensible to me, for I find thepeople of the universities a veryfine set of people, who have beentrying to construct a universityenvironment similar to that of theuniversities in the US. This be-havior by the government is go-ing to set back seriously the de-velopment of the country in myopinion, for many reasons, in-cluding that many of the bestprofessors will leave to take po-sitions elsewhere."

a) A nice placeThe biggest problem facing MIT to-

day is finding places for its students, bothundergraduates and graduate, to live in;

o places which offer at least a certain de-gree of safety, comfort, and access to

o the Institute, and still remain close to theL limits of reasonable cost to the student.:_ It's not hard to see that a problem- exists; 42 undergraduatc:;3 are crowdedm six to a two bedroom apartment in a>: hastily leased building on West Street,< three quarters of a. mile from campus;X Pi Lambda Phi, one of the Institutes 28= fraternities, is living in temporary quart-

ers along Cambridge's seemingly doomedElm Street while their condemned.Beac-on Sqtreent hIome is brought up to the

o standards set by Boston's toughening- safety and fire codes; undergraduateT coeds have pre-empted desperately need-- ed married students, housing by over-

flowing into Westgate; and most urgent-ly the Community Housing office hasbeen crowded for the last month by bothundergraduates and graduates, manymarried and with families, trying des-perately to locate a reasonable place tolive.

Solutions to some of the above prob-lems are in the works. The second towerof McCormick Hall is now under con-struction and should solve the coed prob-lem within two years. Also, the new Mc-Gregor Dorm is in the final planningstages, while the Institute seeks fundsfor construction of an entire series offour McGregor-like houses. When andif these are built it should be possible tohouse most undergraduate men who de-sire a room on campus, and still under-take the massive renovation needed tomake many parts of Burton House, EastCampus, and Senior House desirableplaces to live. At least solutions to thisphase of the problem have been proposed;now what is needed is a maintenance ofpressure on the Corporation and alumnito generate the necessary funds.

The rest of the problem has beencaused by the rapidly degenerating na-ture of Boston's Back Bay area, coupledwith the spiraling rents common to both

sides of the river. The fact that the backof the campus faces a dense and unap-petising mixture of industrial and hu-man slums doesn't help the situation,either.

As Back Bay falls apart and grandold homes are converted into block afterblock of hastily renovated and generallyratty rooming houses, it is not surprisingthat the City of Boston has tried to fightthe trends with stricter zoning andtougher codes. Since a majority of MIT 'fraternities are located in Back Bay,many find themselves faced with tougherlaws and shabbier neighbors, a combina-tion some houses are finding rough to

'handle. The best long - range solutionwould seem to be the gradual moving ofmost houses to some least objectionablepart of Cambridge by providing easyterms on Institute - purchased land and cbuilding expenses.

The most immediate problem of thelot is the plight of the student who mustseek accomodation in a private apart-ment. Married students, both undergrad-uate and graduate, most transfer stu-dents, and single students who can't getinto a undergrad dorm or AshdownHouse all must compete in a ridiculouslyover-burdenedc apartment market.

What about Westgate or the East-gate married students, apartments nowunder construction? The fact is that toget into Westgate has meant a one ortwo year wait for most. Even when thethirty stories of Eastgate are opened,supposedly next July, it will only mo-mentarily empty the waiting list, andthere will still be hundreds of marriedstudents' families still forced to live inthe decaying apartments that now serveas student homes.

The truth is that eveinawith the con-siderable help of the Community Hous-ing office, it's almost impossible to geta decent and still not outrageously pricedapartment in -Ca.abridge. .There. are two..types of apartments available in Cam-bridge-moderately expensive slums, and'are you serious' priced newer buildings.A typical, new two bedroom apartmentwill rent in excess of $250 a month,'Which is almost prohibitive even splitfour ways by single graduate students.

Yet the impossibility of getting aparking sticker and the utter frustrationof trying to rely on the MBTA to get youto the campus keep 'most apartmentdwellers from seeking such comparitivelyinrexpensive and physically safer neigh-borhoods as Watertown, Arlington andBrighton.

The only gainers are the Back Bayand Cambridge landlords who keep up-ping their already amazing cut of stu-dents' income. According to realtors wecontacted, less than half the number ofCambridge apartments available last fallwere up for rent this year. In such a sel-lers market many already inflated rentsrose $20 or $30 a month. The situationisn't likely to be much better next year.

Unless the Institute hastens construc-tion of the proposed Graduate Centerwith its additional housing, and evenmore married students housing in addi-tion to Eastgate, or decides to acquireexisting apartment buildings to be rent-ed to students, the severe housing crisisoff campus will get worse.

87. For years the principlesource of undergraduate park-ing stickers has been Dean Fas-seif. His friendly ears were al-ways alert to stories of lame-ness and grave inconvenienceall of which could be cleanedup with an East lot sticker.Now, it seems in a majorcrackdown on undergraduateparking privileges, the stickersare nearly impossible to come_by except for !egiiate- rea-sons. Dr. Clark of the medicaldepartment has been conduct-ing examinations of those wish-ing stickers for-various maladiesand crippling diseases. But Dr.Clark has made it patently ob-vious that unless you have twobroken legs-forget it. Nowthe only problem seems to bewhat to do with all those emptyspaces in the parking facilities.

88. Of course you've seenthe Lampoon's Playboy Parodyby now, but some of the detailsbehind its publication might beinteresting. In all, 450,000 cop-ies went on sale in the UnitedStates, 90,000 in Asia, Africa,Europe, and South America.The many national ads were so-licifed around the country bythe Lampoon.

Financing was made possibleby two creditors who put up$25,000 each, and other sourc-

Every room on campus is visit-ed at least once a week and theseare usually routine inspections.Not so, however, on the day oneroom was discovered painted inbrown, yellow, and green stripes."It gave sort of a sunrise look."

ually called to aid a student -indistress - it seems he had a livegoat and two feet of hay in hisroom, all very much out of hand.

Ostensively, the inspectors areonly to insure "a happy mediumbetween cleanliness and chaos,"but on occasion much more ofthe latter has prevailed. Thoughthe only pets allowed are fish,everything from alligators to acage full of parrots to an ocelothave been discovered.

Is Virginity Dead?The University of Washington

hosted a "panel discussion" re-cently, the topic: "Is VirginityDead?" The three man panel,consisting of a health instructor,a clergyman, and a psychiatrist,was not about to be pinned downto a direct answer. "It depends onwhose virginity you're talkingabout." offered the instructor.

es advanced an additional $90,.000-thus with $140,000 thecontract for a first run of545,000 copies was signed.

Copyright permission had al.ready been granted, and themagazine was on the pressesbefore Hugh Hefner, Playboy'sEdifor-Publisher, was allowed tosee the product.

89. Just a brief recap of apast success. Back in April,Footnote number 60 accuratelypredicted the inauguration dateof President Johnson and athree day weekend. There areno classes that Friday.

Dr. Cope was for manyyears a principal officer of theAmerican Chemical Society. Hewas chairman of the board ofdirectors from 1959 on, exceptin 1961 when he served as thesociefy's president.

91. Gifts totaling over $40million have been made to MITduring the past year. The totalis the largest amount ever re-.ceived in a single year at MIT.it exceeds the tofal of all giftsreceived by the Institute duringthe first 56 years of 'its ex-istence.

The "discussion" continued foran hour and a half, but was sum-med up by the clergyman: "ThePublic has set up this kind of asociety and we have to respectit to maintain order, just like werespect a traffic light if nobodyis around."

Yale offers M.PhYale University is now offering

an M.Ph., Master of Philosophy.The degree represents the sameacademic accomplishments as aPh.D., except for the completionof a dissertation. It is designed tosupply more first rate collegeteachers.

The Yale degree simply UP.grades the master's degree andeliminates the Masters of Artsand the Master of Science de-grees.

By eliminating those who stayon for a year more without ser-icus intentions to complete grad-uate work, the Yale plan hopesto "eliminate the draft dodgersand the women on the prowl forhusbands." That's asking a lot ofany degree.

Water, water everywhereAt .the Michigan State campus

there have been "charges of cor-ruption in the East Lansing Sew-ers and other high offices of nu-nicipal government." Apparently the students aren't the onlyones raising a stink. One Sopho-more has suggested a total boy-cott until the situation is clearedup. He declares that until thcrivers are completely restoredno student "shall consume water.or any watcr-bearing compoed,under any circumstance. Tbricourse of action is sure to bringresults when the waterworks findsitself with a huge inventory ofunsold water on its hands."
