Four years we would spend in a process of becoming — of moving toward some goal we saw only dimly then. These years at Worcester Tech have left their imprint upon us.

Or so we are told. 15 Our clothing has changed, ! m . . . our hair has changed, . we have changed. 16 Our needs are our needs only. Our tactics are our tactics only. 17 We live in a time of revolution. Sometimes peaceful; sometimes violent. 18 We bear witness to the revolution of the black man. 19 ' .. We have seen revolution in academia. All is flux , said Plato, and our experiences tell us this is true. 20 Berkley, Columbia, and Chicago made rev- olution an overused word in our vocabu- lary. 21 The military was severely challenged. From its policies of war, to its vast budget. 22 . . . the military found itself under attack from its own leaders — the citizens. . . to its officer training programs, Life 23 We have put a man safely on the moon, 24 and yet we cannot safely put a man on the streets of our cities. 25 Four years have brought us these changes and yet — What changes has Worcester Tech brought us? In a period of revolution, can it be possible that our college has stood still? Mi ,  SI s K NO, Worcester Tech has changed. At least Worcester Tech ' s life style has changed. For now our college has women students, and now our college has black students. Will the revolution come when our college has black women students? 27 We have seen change during our years at Worcester Tech and yet now we stop and blink our eyes and we cannot find them again. Were they that insignificant? 28 We have seen Planning committees, and now new depart- ments, and a new President. And perhaps it is only the seeds of revolution that we have seen. Perhaps the harvest will not be for another four years. Who can tell? V .f V The question we must face now is: Have I changed? Our environment and our generation have changed, but have we changed with it? Have we seen the revolution raging all around us and taken part? Or at least acknowledged that there is a struggle going on? Or have we merely acceded to the status quo and accepted our unfulfilling fates? We are the hollow men We are the stuffed men Leaning together Headpiece filled with straw. Alas! Our dried voices, when We whisper together Are quiet and meaningless As wind in dry grass Or rats ' feet over broken glass In our dry cellar . . . T. S. Eliot 30 At any rate now we leave knowing that we are no longer in the process of becoming — we have become. We no longer are studying to be engineers — we are engineers. We have become what we were fated to be. Hopefully, we can live with that. Consumatum est. 31 II i§8v. $m£z: :- ' - ' • 8 Hi m ? jy Dr. William D. Hobey In theory each human being is the master of his own destiny and each American citizen has the freedom of opportunity to achieve that destiny. In practice the unfreedom that exists in our society is becoming almost unbearable for sizable portions of that society. The Black revolution is an immediately obvious example; for most of the WPI clique the student revolution is closer to home. There are many factors behind the student revolution ' s battle-cry, relevance , but one that should be of concern to the WPI student and graduate is the unfreedom of profes- sionalism. The original intent of professionalism was a libera- ting one, ' making one ' s work an integral part of his total life. Thus, in addition to questions relating to methodology and quality of work, professionalism may, for example, bring morality to bear on work to formulate a professional ethic. Indeed, many profes- sions at some point in their evolution have developed an ideal of service to humanity. But all institution s have a tendency to ossify, and in my opinion profes- sionalism at the present time is an enslaving pheno- menon. Work, which should be the contact between a man ' s private life and his social life, always serving to develop his personality, instead has become his entire life. Instead of possessing a variety of ways of thinking, from which to select the appropriate one(s) for the situation at hand, he is confined to the one mode of thought dictated by his particular profes- sion. We have not two cultures, but a Tower of Babel of professions unable to communicate with each other. But more important than this unfreedom of the inability to communicate and to think in different ways, is the apparent inability of the professional to do any creative thinking at all. Decisions in large matters and frequently even in small matters are largely determined by the fixed mode of thought of the profession; creative individuals are usually rebels. In other words, the plug-in type of approach persists throughout the professional ' s life. One aspect of this problem is the tendency of established profes- sions to consider themselves as having immutable permanence. A quick look suggests that no profession is immune from evolution to higher forms and extinc- tion of present forms. The ice-man was replaced by the refrigeration engineer (and the associated service- men) who in turn will probably be made obsolescent by the advent of dried and radiation-preserved foods. The alchemist was replaced by the chemist, who will probably be replaced by a biomaterials scientist - after all, bacteria perform chemical syntheses a lot quicker and more efficiently than a graduate student in organic chemistry. 34 It is bad enough to be put in a professional (or even personality) box, for all boxes are coffins, but ironically the major blame must be put on the student-professional himself. It is still the vocal minority that propels the student revolution; the majority is silent and acquiescent, quite pliable to molding by their teacher-sculptors. In the words of Dostoyevsky ' s Grand Inquisitor, the dilemma is that Freedom, a free mind and science will lead them into such a jungle and bring them face to face with such marvels and insoluble mysteries that some of them, the recalcitrant and the fierce, will destroy themselves; others, recalcitrant but weak, will destroy one another; and the rest, weak and unhappy, will come crawling to our feet and cry aloud: . . . save us from ourselves! . . . and we shall give them our decision for it all, and they will be glad to believe in our decision, because it will relieve them of their great anxiety and of their present terrible torments of coming to a free decision themselves. No science will give them bread so long as they remain free. But in the end they will lay their freedom at our feet and say to us, ' We don ' t mind being your slaves so long as you feed us! ' The senility of institutionalized professionalism has even caused it to forget its original intent. Science has been particularly prone to this, so that one hears all too little of science for the service of humanity (and humaneness). Instead we have the frequent cliche ' , knowledge for knowledge ' s sake — as if books and journals had an intrinsic worth in them- selves! Knowledge is for people ' s sake and is of value only if it leads to creative action. Science is an activity of men, and, since man is a social animal, the scientist must be for the service of all men. Again, some scientists claim to do research for the fun of it. It is good and perhaps necessary for creative production for a man to have joy in his work, yet no man is an island unto himself and true joy flows from other persons. It may be possible to develop a new concept of professionalism (or perhaps better, of work) that will reshape the role of work in a person ' s life. This new concept would take account of the rapid changes occurring today in both technology and social struc- ture. It would recognize and facilitate the increasing mobility of individuals among different types of work. It would recognize Emerson ' s maxim, to thine own self be true, while also instilling in the profes- sional a sensitivity to people and to the relation of his work to people. Quo vadis? 35 Dr. Harit Majmudar 36 We have a good college with a good faculty which can give a good education to a student who knows what he wants to study. This is particularly true if the student ' s interest lies in traditional disciplines we have at WPI. He can go out of here with a good diploma, and will do well in his job or will succeed in graduate studies elsewhere. There is no exaggeration in this since students have come back and told us so. Does it appear then that the faculty has nothing to worry about? It may seem so if we look upon the education from a purely utilitarian point of view. It may also seem so from a materialistic view since what we guarantee the student is a well-paid job and presumably happiness through the advantages of our affluent society. What worries me and bothers me, however, is that we can do this job much better, and that we nearly fail in the case of the student who does not know what he wants to do with his life. I know students, whose photographs appear in this Peddler, who are technically well educated but are either confused or questioning the value of the education. I do feel sad when I find that many students are only interested in purely utilitarian education. Last year I spent many hours to convince a few freshmen that they should not minor in Business if their major is in Engineering. Let me expand on this. I do agree that engineering students should study engineering economics and related business concepts. But this should be really considered as a part of his technical or professional education. I like to make a case that the engineering student should minor in ' liberal arts ' subjects like History, Political Science, English, Music, Art, Sociology, Psychology. What I am really thinking is subjects which deal with h uman emotion and behavior. My argument for the case is as follows: We Americans are unsurpassed in the understanding and management of business. We are exporting our ex- pertise in business in the same manner as we are exporting our expertise in technology. We are not, however, always so expert in our understanding of human values; we are not expert in dealing with problems of hunger, disease, justice, equality, and race-relations. Our understanding of human and social problems in foreign countries and the consequent foreign policy is probably as obsolete as Britain ' s policy hundred years ago during the colonial period. Our understanding and will to im- prove the life of Black Americans is no better than that of underdeveloped India in dealing with un- touchability and caste-system. The national health and medicine are in much poorer condition than that in less affluent European countries. I feel sick to my stomach when I think of the total lack of any sensitivity to human suffering, which has resulted from our participation in what is primarily a Vietna- mese revolution, on the part of the so called Silent Majority! Neither traditional religion nor belief in Western values implied in our Declaration of Independence, and in our Constitution seems to come to our rescue in our cancerous state of life. Our religious institutions have been conspicuous by not raising ethical and moral questions as related to our national and international policies. In the political arena, I wonder how we, with our beliefs in democratic form of government, always find our- selves supporting dictatorships totally insensitive to human and social problems, individual freedom, equi- table distribution of wealth. When I raise these questions, one of my colleagues accuses me of simpli- fying the issues. But, I believe that the fundamental ethical values on which our society is supposed to be built, and of which we are proud of are basically very simple and that there cannot be or should not be any compromise. The alleged massacre of unarmed Viet- namese civilian men, women, and children may be an isolated incident according to some, but is, I submit, a result of the compromise of the simple ethical values. This reminds me of Nazi massacre of Jews. I see some striking similarities. Germans did not want to believe. We also do not want to believe the happenings in Vietnam. I hope we have learned a lesson from that history. I am afraid that we will destroy ourselves before some imaginary enemy does. The point I want to make is simply that I have given up on conventional religious and educational institutions. In religion, we need something more than the Sunday morning service. We do not need rote reciting of Bible, Koran, or Bhagavad-Gita. We need to be concerned about the present human suffering. Let us stop talking about God and the after life, and start doing something about the human being and the present life. In education we need to develop new concepts and experiment with new methods. To educate young men to run the wheels of industry or to stimulate them to be the seekers of knowledge should be only one of the goals of education. Granted it is an important part of the overall goal. If the young graduates are not sensitive to and are not educated to investigate ethical, moral and philosophical aspects of individual and group behavior, I would say that the educational institutions are only graduating robots. I think however, that we can evolve new concepts in education, and we must do this soon. This is in fact, the message of the young men of today. I believe we at WPI have a singular opportunity to evolve new ideas in technical education. My case for a Liberal Arts minor for the students in Engineering, Science, or Business represents only one of the many changes we will need to make. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the editors of Peddler for inviting me to write a few words. I want to congratulate the graduating class, and I hope you would help me and my colleagues, to improve our college by challenging us to do better. Good Luck! 37 Kenneth E. Scott Everyone is learning all the time. We cannot help but learn, for living is analogous to learning. The process we call getting an education is merely an effort to increase the rate and amount of learning, to improve the efficiency of the learning process, and to develop intellectual maturity. Many ideas, facts, and techniques have been amassed and developed in the past. We assimilate this accumulated knowledge and try to convey it in the most efficient manner, thereby benefiting from the experience of those who came before us. Learning by personal experience may be very desirable, but in most circumstances is too slow in this modern day of mushrooming knowledge. It is necessary for those of us who teach to optimize the learning process. Every experienced teacher develops his own methods and techniques which he believes accelerates the acquisition of knowledge. What is best for one teacher may not work for another; what is optimum for one student may not be favorable for another. It is preferable to let each teacher use his own methods in his own way to develop a system which is best for him and his students. New ideas and methods in education have been expanding rapidly. We must all experiment, try new ideas, use new techniques. How- ever, care must be exercised so that educational innovation does not result in educational chaos. That which is traditional is not bad just because it is traditional. 38 A course or project is merely the vehicle through which the primary objective of providing a learning experience can be developed. A planned series of such learning experiences results in the develop- ment of the student which is the primary aim of undergraduate education at W.P.I. I feel that certain prerequisites must be met if the desired results are to be achieved. There must be a universal goal at W.P.I. The individual teacher must have a goal in his course; the student must feel that he has a goal. The degree of interest that a teacher has in a subject that he is teaching can vary greatly. Yet, if the teacher is not truly interested in his subject, how can his students become interested? A teacher must have an ample amount of enthusiasm, he must be dynamic. He must work hard at teaching if he expects results from his students. Discipline is a necessary ingredient and a good rapport must be established between teacher and student. Every class should be an exciting experience for the teacher and his excitement and enthusiasm must be transmitted to the students. A teacher should enjoy being in the classroom and working with students in all the facets of education. A bit of humor in class does no harm. Why not enjoy teaching, why not enjoy learning? It is necessary to create an atmosphere conducive to learning. When these prerequisites have been met, then learning can take place. The teacher senses accomplishment, the student feels he is learning. The process is proceeding smoothly. Education is working at its best and motivation should be at its highest. The results can be gratifying for the student and the teacher. A majority of our students live up to my expectations. The correct atmosphere for learning does occur. Teaching only seniors and a fascinating subject does provide me with the vehicle. Most of my students are mature, conscientious and are interested in learning. Most are motivated. My efforts seem to be successful over the years. I enjoy teaching and working with students at W.P.I. My greatest reward is to observe the development of the students. My methods are not always appreciated at the time, but my goal is usually realized. The results have been gratifying to me personally. W.P.I, students do achieve and I consider myself very fortunate to be in a position at W.P.I, where I have the opportunity to contribute to the development of so many fine young men. The proficient teacher experiments, utilizing the many new teaching aids that are available. He does everything possible to increase the effectiveness of his teaching and therby accelerate the learning process. He is a pioneer in teaching techniques just as he would be at the frontier in research. He uses computers, overhead projectors, closed circuit television or any other teaching aid that he feels will help. Although useful and effective, these aids must be used in all cases to supplement the relationship between the teacher and the student. No new idea, method or equipment can replace the personal relationship that must exist between the teacher and the student. Frequently, words alone are not enough regardless of that relationship. A modern teacher must find ways of communicating with the student so that the student not only hears and sees, but also experiences and senses. 39 Dr. C William Shipman 40 Part of the biblical description of man is his desire to achieve, to reshape his surroundings, to develop identity. I believe the writers of Genesis had this in mind when they set down the statement, . . . . God created man in his own image. Man is like God in the sense that he can overcome his animal instinct for mere survival and achieve identification. Man is differ- ent from God, however, in that he must learn to do what he wants; man does not create that which was previously unknown. Man ' s real learning always pro- ceeds from the specific to the general rather than the other way ' round. Yet, the desire for identification is the essential humanness of a man. There seems to be no way to reach an identity without working at it, without personal sacrifice. The incredible sense of timing between a foo tball quarter- back and his pass receiver, the exquisite grace and control of a dancer, the inspiring choice of word- sounds by the poet, and the analytical capability of a scientist are all manifestations of giving to ordinary human effort an all consuming direction and purpose. Without this devotion to cause there is nothingness — even inhumanity. Given these basic characteristics of man, there is something poignant in the pleas of students for involvement and relevance. These two desires have become consuming passions for the present genera- tion of young adults — so much so that they either rush to deal with issues for which they are inade- quately prepared or choose involvement in areas where no preparation is required. At the same time the older generation, knowing the complexity of to-day ' s relevant problems, pronounce them too difficult and deny students exposure to the very thing most wanted. The result of an educational process which disre- gards essential humanness can be disastrous for the student. The student is led to believe that his own participation in a problem of current interest in a meaningful way is virtually beyond his capabilities, and this removes him from any human feeling about himself. I believe that every student has the right to be considered as one who can solve the complex prob- lem and that the purpose of education is to demon- strate to him that he has that capability. 41 John A. Worsley It was not surprising that there was a major debate on the Worcester Tech campus this year about the goals and methods of education. Similar questions have embroiled college campuses throughout the country during the past few years. Nor were the positions adopted by Tech students and faculty sur- prising; similar positions have been taken by others concerned with education. Polarized at their extremes these positions include the traditional (often labelled the conservative) view that students should take a prescribed course of study as directed by the faculty, and the opposing view (often labelled the liberal) that students should follow their own interests and devel- op their own academic program. In many senses this debate is as old as education itself. In American society the debate has been of special magnitude and importance since education became more egalitarian in the nineteenth century. A major modern force affected the debate considerably: the rise of industrialized life. Long a pragmatic peo- ple, Americans began to see large virtues in utilitarian education as industry enlarged employment opportu- nities. Traditional studies of Latin, Greek, philosophy and history, that had been useful when education was mainly concerned with the training of ministers, law- yers and doctors, lost their practicality and Ameri- cans turned their attention to vocational education. Agricultural colleges and mechanical trade schools (Worcester Tech among them) came into vogue, and as girls entered education, courses in home economics were introducted. John Dewey, though not a utilitarian, synthezised a philosophy for practical education. He believed that education should be training for life and that class- rooms should be laboratories for democracy. The curriculm, Dewey said, should fulfill the needs of society and schools should be oriented to the needs of the students. Theoretically strong, Dewey ' s ideas showed weak- ness in practice. Dewey ' s philosophy, grounded in Jeffersonian individualism, conformed well with Pro- gressive democracy, and was reinforced by principles of Freudian psychology. But its application not only required teachers who were masters of a wide range of subject matter but also who were artistically crea- tive. Unable to cope with such heavy demands, teach- ers generally fell into one of several traps: either they defensively armed themselves with a wealth of aca- demic material, or they placed a greater emphasis on technique. The old normal schools, later to be the state colleges for teachers, devised whole programs in methodology while allowing their traditional aca- demic subjects to suffer. The result was that 1940, the play school idea had taken over. The educa- tional device, the game, became more important than the subject content. Having cheapened the ideas of Dewey, the so-called educators also popularized Freu- dian psychology. The act-out school of behavorists arose, believeing that it was more beneficial for a student to act out his frustrations than it was to undergo any discipline. A conservative reaction set in during the post World War II period. But in the 1960 ' s, the debate between the traditionalists and the libertarians has arisen again. Several factors have been instrumental. One is the ingrained individualism and pragmatism of American life. Another has been a combination of egalitarianism and affluence which has allowed more and more Americans to enjoy more and more educa- tion. 42 A third factor has been the inflationary material- ism that has enveloped American education, especial- ly at the college level. Though there are many college students (more than eight million in 1969), there are also thousands of colleges to service them. Competi- tion for students has become keen. In addition to other social pressures, the competition for good students and for funds has brought pressure for change on college campuses. The schools know that often their very survival depends on their ability to get with it. This has been one of the underlying pressures for change at Tech, and it has premeated the school from administration, through departments to faculty members. All have been concerned with such questions as: What is happening at MIT? What do the students want? What do employers want? What makes those courses more popular than these? The questions place the faculty in a dilemma: how can they be true to the good old standards and virtues of traditional education and yet be relevant, be hip? And around we go on the merry-go-round. Not only do we face the same questions that plagued educators at the beginning of the century, but we have fallen into the same pattern of answers. The traditionalists, fearing change by their very nature, have been distressed at the possible conse- quences, and with good cause. Experience has demon- strated that courses that have bent over backwards to be relevant have often turned into play school. Unfortunately, a few campus instructors have given credence to the fear by becoming campus disc jock- eys or film clip specialists. Moreover, the departments are as guilty as individuals. They have sought to draw students by offering courses that have been spiced up, or at least that have claimed to be. The attempt has largely been pathetic. There is a solution to this mess, but it is difficult. Indeed, it is also dangerous. But that is the price of accomplishment. The first requirement is to hire qualified and competent teachers, people who not only know their subject matter but who can get it across and who stay lively because they are themselves advanced students and continue to learn. Once hired, these people should be given a large measure of freedom. Autocrat- ic departments must go. There must be confidence that we have collected an intelligent and worthwhile community of scholars and teachers. If the nucleus of the community does not meet high standards, then the rest of the game will be pretty shabby. Students must also be given large measure of freedom. On guidance from the faculty they should be allowed to devise their own programs. The stu- dents must be treated as adults and allowed to discover that making mistakes and meeting failures is as much a part of life as success. The students ' native curiosity should provide the basis for motivation and teachers must learn that they can impart basic knowl- edge and principles while the students engage in activities that they find interesting. In short, learning can be fun and after some encouragement, if the student cannot find it fun, he ought to be encouraged to leave. The latter statement, of course, is an anathema to college financial officers and administrators (and per- haps faculty) in general. But I have long believed that there are too many colleges and too many college students. American society has made a college degree a requirement for just about everything. That is pure foolishness. Those who are interested in higher intel- lectual pursuits should be in college. Otherwise, they should pursue other ways to happiness. In such a community there would be no need for attendance requirements. Students would come to class because they found it valuable. Nor would there be a need for grades nor scare tactical exams. I am well aware, of course, that Dewey said all of this some fifty years ago; I am also aware that attempts to create such a system have failed. But they have failed because they have been half-hearted attempts. Those that have totally committed themselves, such as Dewey ' s Laboratory School in Chicago, have met success. Halfway attempts will be doomed. No instructor can hope to win students over to learning while another instructor is threatening students with home- work, grades, attendance quizzes and a whole variety of other coercive techniques. Either we believe in the virtues of education or we do not. Either we must fulfill what we have proclaim- ed for so long, or we must admit that we are afraid of open education and what we are really offering is glossed over brainwashing. 43 -fh ' - ' m® ■■mm mm m asii H  s « mMmm n?M W ; 47 Fall is like some fiery diamond that crystallizes but once, then shatters into fragments of memories. 48 49 50 Memories of yet another class entering Worcester Tech. 51 Larger.

The student must accept great responsibility for his own progress in return for his freedom to learn. I say to my faculty and student colleagues, This is a challenge I dare you to accept. The faculty may be listening, but most of the students are elsewhere, preparing for an escape from the present instead of listening to a vision of the future, preparing for Homecoming, that time when alumni come back to reminisce about the good old days and students try to escape the present.

A solitary trou- badour with only love and a guitar for pro- tection. 98 99 Launch the spring antiwar offensive in Worcester.

Bti Mp § 173 174 175 ffia IBm Spring is rebirth. A time when students pull harder than ever on the chains of academic discipline. ■ «. A time, like autumn, which fairly assaults our senses, and evokes a total response and involvement from our being. : Jp3 i ysc Its delight is color and it revels in the sensuousity of the season like a child discovering something new. This is a time for release. The time when we begin to feel the impending freedom of summer. Final exams drain our energy and our spirit, but when they are finished we can feel nothing less than ecstasy. Spring is the season of life; of that fleeting moment that hangs over our being eternally and never - now.

For the others, they leave knowing that Tech has extracted its price in sweat and time as well as money — knowing that the world outside will extract even more. Wi ' . ffiT- ' I The years spent here may have better pre- pared them for that world and yet not at all enabled them to mould that world or to see that dimension of that world which may prove most satisfying . . . that etherially in- tangible dimension of the spirit. 309 This has been the place of our intellect ' s conception . . . Hopefully we have found nourishment and have grown here. 310 If not then Tech is not the womb from which we are born as thinking, feeling, knowledgeable stu- dents, but rather an incubator controlled by the cold hum of a computer. Only the graduates can make that judgement. We leave them to their task. 311 To the Class of ' 70 CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ACHIEVEMENT and WELCOME TO MEMBERSHIP in the W. P. I .

Survival dictates that our environmental resources must be protected from any acts which unreasonably lessen their qualities and adversely affect their level of usefulness. While considerable progress has been made in pollution control, our resources will be further impaired by population growth, commercial expan- sion, chemical usages and other technological advancements. As a member of the Water Pollution Control Federation, the American Water Works Associa- tion, and the New England Water Works Associa- tion, NORTON COMPANY is pledged to support sound pollution control measures and contribute its efforts to develop economical and effective means of control. And we mean just that. Whether it be land, water, or air, NORTON COMPANY helps environ- mental engineers keep it clean. NORTON abrasives are employed in systems which reduce solid wastes to facilitate disposal, incineration, or reclamation. NORTON porous ceramic filtration products dif- fuse the air which purifies billions of gallons of sewage daily in many metropolitan cities. NORTON fume scrubbers keep dust vapor, and noxious fumes from polluting the air near industrial plants. But most importantly, NORTON COMPANY salutes the environmental engineering fraternity everywhere for whatever part they play in this profound program. Norton Company.

Over the years product innovation has produced many Heald firsts. Among these are the first fully hydraulic internal grinder for production line use, first internal grinder with automatic sizing and first centerless internal grinder. These innovations gained rapid acceptance and are now basic standards of the machine tool industry. More recently, research has established Heald as a leader in the isolation and control of vibration and resultant chatter. One notable result of this research is the damped quill which successfully elim- inates chatter marks in surface finish of deep bores. With industry ' s need for ultra high precision, Heald developed and introduced the first Numerically Controlled contour boring and turning machine capable of .000025 resolution. The procedure of in-process single jet air gaging of internal grooves is still another innovation. This process reduces size variation to Vi that of other sizing methods. In 1963 Heald Controlled Force Grinders were announced, representing the first major break- through in internal grinding in 30 years. The CF principle controls the force at which the wheel is fed into the work and has set new standards for quality, production, and uniformity. Here at Heald, research continues in many areas such as fluid bearings, surface texture, numerically controlled machinery, and static as well as dynamic machine characteristics. Thus, Engineering ingenuity, a key to progress, has done much to justify our well-known slogan — IT PAYS TO COME TO HEALD.

Carlson ' 60 Charles W. Mello ' 61 We have endeavored to give this PEDDLER a basic theme and have tried to carry it throughout the book. We chose the academic year of 1969-70 and have worked to highlight all the significant episodes and people that helped make the year what it was. We have used the pictorial essay extremely for it can tell our story. We do not claim to have covered every- thing that happened but we have tried honestly to cover a cross section of this academic community. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Bob, Tom and Dave who came thru with the pictures when we needed them, for this book is a representa- tion of their hours and hours of effort. I thank Don, Greg and Vin who put this book together. They spent much time arranging all these pages so we might publish this annual. I also thank everyone else who gave of their time so this book came to be. Finally, but most of all, I would like to thank Professor John Van Alstyne and Robert Gosling for all the assistance and encouragement they gave me throughout this year.
