red to several drawbacks in the
present. system,
The current voting sates entails

in effect. These are inefficient and
often avoid “the nub” of the ques=
tion.”
Present staffing facilities are in-
adequate—close to “quasi-corrupt,”
Mr. Lindsay stressed: Staff -mem-
bers. are currently responsible only
to ranking minority members, sub- '
committee chairmen or similiar of-
ficials. Other,Congressmen are forc-
ed to turn to different sources for
help. This has “resulted in what is
sometimes referred to as. the “fifth
branch of the government,”’ a
healthy development which is mak.
ing a practical and effective contri-
bution, in spite of its drawbacks.
Not. all is bleak, however, Mr.
Lindsay pointed out. For example,

| Speakers at smite Session
— Wil Discuss Effects of Cuberneties.
This year the topic of the In-
terim Session at Smith College will
be “Cybernetics and Its Impact on
Society.”
During a three week period,
eight . Speakers. will explore the
effects on_oursociety of machines
which are able to take information
and reach. their o conclusions
from that information. a -
COMPUTERS
The term “cybernetics” was de-
rived from the Greek word mean-
—ing-steersman- or governor, and
has been used in the engineering
_field to refer to self regulating me-
~chanisms. Today it is used as a
general term describing the com-
puters which have become a vital
part of our modern industry.
The Interim Program was insti-
tuted last year on a. three year
experimental basis. Under this
plan, the first semester examina- -
tions are held before Christmas
vacation. The students return in
January to a three week session oi
lectures and. independent, stuay.
_ Fields .of work may be discussed
with faculty..members. and_ biblio-
graphies are sometimes suggested.
However, once a student’s project
is formulated, she ‘works indepen-
dently.

their coats on, since they were out-

hooded jackets and’ trousers of a

cording to the School catalogue;
“anyone who knows how difficult it

the value of this simple device.”
The pupils were expected to “learn
to ‘stand straight and unconscious,

Classes in the Phebe Anna

the ‘two highest grades.

often amazed because the students

that “Negroes can’t stick together.”
‘In the past year, most.of SNCC’s —

emphasized the need for race pride

the prejudice and rigid social struc-

He suggested the need for a typeof

In the closing address, exécutive
director Charles McDew emphasized
that the movement was not just
concerned with integration, but with
“justice, freedom, and equality. ” He
attacked. the concept that integra-
‘tion is enough and asked “integra-

many aspects of white, American

the Black Muslims as also aspiring
to “justice, freedom, and equality,”

Mr. Lindsay believes that the Pres- ~~

in preference to “substance;” there-

“everything has been Mount Eve-
rest.”
The minority is faced with’

The Republicans must-realize, Mr.
Lindsay stressed, that not only must
they become “city-minded,” but, in
addition, they must make a concen-
trated effort. to win the city vote,
which he feels they are capable of
doing. Furthermore, a definite and
clear statement of their civil rights
program is necessary.
