Only 5.3 percent of the students receved assgnments that were among ther bottom three choces. "From all the reports we've gotten, everythng went extremely well," sad Margaret A.

Accordng to Jablonsk, about 130 rooms on campus were crowded, whch s down from the all tme hgh last year, when rooms n Baker House were crowded to qunts and lounges n MacGregor House were converted nto bedrooms. Jablonsk attrbutes the success of the lottery to several factors. The addton of the Alpha Ch Omega sororty house, located on Commonwealth Avenue, and the converson of the W2A buldng, located between McCormck Hall and Ashdown House, to the McCormck Annex ncreased the nsttute housng capacty by about 50 people.

WASHNGTON n an attempt to head off another pont of contenton between Washngton and Tokyo, Japanese Defense Mnster Tokuchro Tamazawa sad Thursday Japan wll make ts "maxmum effort" to pay the Unted States the addtonal money t had earler promsed for the support of Amercan troops statoned n Japan. So far, to the consternaton of Amercan mltary planners, the Japanese Defense Agency has budgeted for only half the approxmately $300 mllon ncrease t was scheduled to pay the Unted States next year as "host-naton support" for Amercan forces. Under an agreement worked out n 1991, Japan was supposed to assume next year the full costs of more than 22,000 Japanese cvlans who work on Amercan mltary bases and the bases' utlty blls. The ssue s mportant because any dspute over the costs of the bases could affect the close securty relatonshp between the Unted States and Japan.

Congress has at least partally exempted tself from these laws, from the Far Labor Standards Act of 1938 to the Famly and Medcal Leave Act of 1993, n part because of concern over poltcally nspred actons by executve-branch enforcement agences. Leberman and others sad they beleve they have met these objectons n several ways, ncludng puttng enforcement n the hands of an ndependent board.

Gen. Raoul Cedras, sad he would rather de than step asde and warned that a U.S. nvason would lead to cvl war and wdespread bloodshed. Cedras sad n an off-camera ntervew wth CBS televson that he stll s not nterested n U.S. offers to go lve n comfortable exle. nstead, he declared, he wants to reman n power to buld democracy n Hat. Cedras' comments n the ntervew late Wednesday were relayed to reporters here Thursday and broadcast n the Unted States and Hat. Whle many here have expressed doubt that Cedras wll stay and rsk arrest by U.S. troops, hs defance - and that of de facto Presdent Emle Jonassant n a latenght press conference Wednesday - mrrored the atttude Hat's mltary rulers have dsplayed throughout the months-long standoff wth the Clnton admnstraton. The Unted States, after much hestaton, s posed to use mltary force to remove Cedras and hs army colleagues, who overthrew presdent Jean-Bertrand Arstde n a bloody coup n September 1991, seven months after Arstde was sworn n as Hat's frst democratcally elected presdent. Snce then, they have steadfastly clung to power n the face of threats and economc embargoes mposed by the Unted States and the Unted By Donald P. Baker and Kent Jenkns Jr. 771E WASNVGTON POST The re-electon campagn of Vrgna Sen. Charles S. Robb lkely got a substantal boost Thursday when hs longtme rval, fornler governor L. Douglas Wlder, dropped hs ndependent canddacy. Robb no longer faces the prospect that a fellow Democrat wll deeply dvde hs party, cost hm crtcal black support and allow Republcan nomnee Olver L. North to clam a vctory on Nov. 8. "Certanly Robb's status has changed dramatcally," sad Robert D. Holsworth, a poltcal scentst at Vrgna Commonwealth Unversty. "Despte what by all accounts s a lethargc campagn, Robb emerges as one of the more fortunate poltcal fgures." A VCU poll ths week showed Wlder wth 13 percent support, and nearly half of those respondents named Robb as ther second choce, compared wth North and ndependent canddate J. Marshall Coleman. "Most of Wlder's voters wll probably come home to Chuck Robb," agreed Mary Washngton College poltcal scentst Mark Rozell. n the VCU survey, Robb was 3 ponts behnd North. The ncumbent was clearly elated as he campagned Thursday. "Ths makes a very dramatc change n the dynamcs of the race," Robb sad at a news conference n Alexandra. "t wll make t easer for me to pull all the tradtonal elements of the Democratc coalton behnd my campagn." And whle Robb seems sure to beneft, North could be damaged.sgnfcantly. Strategcally, he had Natons. Cedras sad he "would rather de" than surrender, and sad, "f de n the next few hours or days, that would be better than leavng my country n dshonor and leavng my chldren wth a dshonorable name." Cedras sad he was "not nterested n any buyout. am not nterested n a comfortable lfe n exle." He warned, as he has n the past, of bloodshed and cvl war f there s an nvason, and the wdespread loss of Arercan lves. He made the comments followng reports that the Unted States was stll tryng to offer Cedras and two other mltary leaders a deal that would allow them to leave the country safely, keep the fortunes they have amassed whle n power and avod prosecuton for human rghts abuses commtted over the past three years. The other two offcers are Lt. Col. Mchel Francos, the Port-au- Prnce polce chef, and Brg. Gen. Phlppe Bamby, the army's chef of staff. The three have been the country's man leaders snce the 1991 coup and have been dentfed by the Clnton admnstraton and the Unted Natons as the top leaders who must step down. The defant talk s exhaustng the patence of many of those who backed the coup. Many of the coup supporters now fear an nvason wll lead to a radcal restructurng of socety, and possble retrbuton by those who suffered at the hands of the army over the past three years. Most are also sufferng severe fnancal strans because of the nternatonal embargo placed on the naton. been countng on Wlder's presence to sphon Robb supporters and, by dvdng the electorate among four canddates, to decrease the total number of votes North would need to wn. Wlder also had served North's purpose by attackng Robb on the stump and n debates. "Olver North also won't have Do'g Wlder around to do the drty work n hs campagn," Rozell sad. "You could say that Olle North won't have Doug Wlder to kck Chuck Robb around any more." North, whose greatest challenge from the start has been to broaden hs farly narrow base, now must sharpen hs dfferences wth Robb even more, analysts sad. "t brngs nto play the possblty that North wll focus even more on character than North has to date," Holsworth sad. The GOP nomnee nssted Thursday that he would proft from the narrowed feld. "Ths lfts the fog off the battlefeld," North sad. "t leaves a very clear choce between Chuck Robb's lberal agenda and Olver North's conservatve agenda. have what the people want." North long has tred to dscount Coleman's mpact, and he sad Wlder's departure leaves hm n a head-to-head battle wth Robb. "Ths s the man event," he sad.

"Cedras s just as nflexble as Arstde, and ths s all hs fault. swear would shoot hm on sght f had a gun." Despte the statements, there was wdespread speculaton that Cedras and hs famly were secretly preparng to leave the country, as almost every mltary strongman n Hat has done n the past. Whle Cedras' future was debated, other rumors swept through the captal, and some were even reported as fact by local rado statons. One normally relable rado staton reported Wednesday that former Presdent Jmmy Carter, along wth Senate Mnorty Leader Robert Dole, R-Kan., had secretly arrved n Hat to carry out last-mnute negotatons wth the army. " can tell you honestly no one, and mean no one, knows what Cedras and those guys are thnkng," sad a relable mltary source. "Most of the rumors are pretty funny, but at the same tme, any one of them could be true. You just never know." The cty went about ts normal busness Thursday as best t could despte the loomng threat. There were no sgns of panc. But the few people wth money stocked up on bottled water and canned food. Wednesday nght Jonassant, who was namrned presdent by the army, vowed Hat would not gve up and sad the whole world would face a "surprse" n the next few days. vvurders Dr-opout vlay ttve l Caj JL C- L have not soldly made up ther mrnnds. Ths makes my message a lot smpler," he sad. Offcally, Wlder attrbuted hs decson to hs poor showng n recent polls and hs nablty to rase enough money to compete wth the major party canddates. "Though don't attack great sgnfcance to polls, they are nfluental, and the nfluence on fnancng capabltes s great," Wlder noted n a sx-paragraph statement dstrbuted by hs campagn. For several black poltcal scentsts, however, t was Wlder's concern for hs place n hstory - the naton's frst elected black governor and a poltcan who has never lost an electon - outweghed hs oftstated contempt for Robb. "As much as he wanted to hurt Robb, he ddn't want to undermne what he had acheved as a poltcal fgure, sad W. Avon Drake, former head of Afrcan Amercan studes at VCU. "He ddn't want to go down wth a bloody nose, take a whppng." "Wlder s able to read the poltcal wnds," sad Unversty of Vrgna poltcal scentst Paula McClan. "No one, least of all Doug Wlder, wants a poltcal footnote as a spoler. He dd what was n hs own best nterest." Wlder refused to take questons from reporters when he showed up at hs headquarters n Rchmond about noon. But hs statement sad, " am a realst. know when to hold them and when to fold them. E have seen that the two-party system n Vrgna s strong and that the dffculty n fnancng ndependent canddaces s real."

The comments followed several days of techncal dscussons here between U.S. and North Korean delegatons over Washngton's nsstence that Pyongyang abandon ts graphte reactors - the plutonum byproducts of whch could be used to make nuclear weapons - n favor of safer lght-water reactors. Km Jong U, leader of the North Korean delegaton, sad hs naton wants "two types of compensaton" f t accedes to Washngton's demands: funds to buy the foregn-desgned lght-water reactors and rembursement "for electrc losses and nvestment" followng 30 years of North Korean nuclear research. Km estmated the latter compensaton fgure would come to several bllon U.S. dollars. No agreement on costs emerged from the meetngs, he told reporters at a news conference, and the ssue wll be pursued when hgher-rankng offcals meet n Geneva on Sept. 23. U.S. delegates refused to take reporters' questons durng the dscussons, whch began Saturday. But accordng to news reports n Japan, the Unted States has proposed that an nternatonal consortum contrbute $4 bllon over the next decade to fnance constructon of the lght-water reactors. Washngton has asked Japan and South Koreg to pay more than half of the sum to buld twn mllon klowatt reactors, Kyodo news servce reported.

Energy Secretary Hazel R. O'Leary authorzed shpment of the materal to the Unted States after repeated pleas from the State Department and the arms control communty. But the state of South Carolna persuaded U.S. Dstrct Judge Matthew Perry earler ths week to bar the shpments, on the grounds that the Energy Department has faled to prepare a full-scale envronmental mpact statement.

The much-hyped and seemngly nexorable mgraton of Aps mellfera scutellatus appears to have screeched to a halt at the Calforna-Arzona border. The Afrcanzed honeybees - whch have camped out for months n Yuma, Arz. - were expected to swarm nto Southern Calforna durng the past sprng or summer. But the Colorado Rver has turned nto somethng of a Rubcon that the hot-headed nsects can't seem to cross. Experts hypothesze several reasons for ther aborted progress: Because of a dry sprng, the desert was nhosptable for passage, lackng the water, food and shelter to accommodate the crossng. Or perhaps the bees have run nto one of ther few natural predators, a mte that nfests the honeycombs and consumes the larvae. But most ntrgung, some experts surmse that these tropcal bees are genetcally ll-equpped for more temperate clmates and fnally could be reachng the northward lmts of an arborne journey that has stoked fear and ttllaton among Calfornans and Hollywood flmmakers.

Why s t that the poltcal left feels compelled to force ther own "poltcally correct" agenda upon others? And by what moral rght or authorty arc they allowed to make such a potentally controversal presentaton as Ms. Wllams' mandatory for all new students? One wonders what becomes of the much ntoned lberal buzzword "tolerance" n stuatons such as ths, n whch attendance s descrbed as mandatory even for those students who may dsagree strongly wth some of Ms. Wllams' vewponts or who may fnd some of her strong language and coarser materal personally offensve. As a conservatve, respect the rght of Ms. Wllams and her sponsors to make ther vews known, and also respect ther rght not to have to come hear me f or someone of my phlosophcal bent chooses to do the same, Today the Unted States stands posed to send mltary forces to overthrow the brutal junta currently rulng Hat. The Defense Department has strpped tawo U.S. arcraft carrers of ther arcraft, crammng them full of nvason forces. The bulk of the landng force s already at sea, statoned just off the coast of Hspanola. Last weekend Amercan arcraft dropped three mllon leaflets over Hat declarng that exled Presdent Jean-Bertrand Arstde wll soon return to power. The Clnton admnstraton has descrbed ts mltary plans n great detal, and Presdent Bll Cln- famte pestlence but apparently what s good for the goose s not good for the gander. For example, what do you thnk would have been the reacton of Ms. Wllams and her sponsors had ncomng freshmen been requred, fttngly enough durng rush week, to lsten to an hour of Rush Lmbaugh? can hear the cres of "poltcal tyranny" and "mnd control" now. The real vllans here,. however, are not Ms. Wllams and her sponsors, but those admnstrators who allow themselves to be taken hostage poltcally by whatever specal nterest group happens to come along wth ts lst of demands. Upon pan of defamaton of character and poltcal blackmal (for example, beng labeled "homophobe" or "bgot"), such admnstrators cave n to the pressures whch are placed upon them and captulate to the demands of the few. For sadly n today's world, you don't have to actually hate or fear homosexuals or people of other races to be labeled a homophobe or bgot, you need only dsagree wth them-on a poltcal or socal ssue; that s enough to get you branded wth such a ttle. Those admnstrators, however, who do allow themselves to become the tools of one partcular specal nterest group, thereby subjectng the many to the tyranny of the few, abdcate ther responsblty to ther students and betray ther charge as guardans of the ton hmself has delvered a televsed address to the naton outlnng the ratonale for the nvason. The actual nterventon s expected next week, perhaps after a vote n Congress. As for the nvason tself, mltary commentators expect t to be a pushover. }lat's ar force has at most two operatng arcraft, and ts navy possesses only one boat wth a workng motor. The army conssts of 7,000 men traned only for terrorzng the populaton. Last week, when a freghter appeared off the coast of southern Hat, solders n the area strpped off ther unforms, threw down ther weapons and ran for ther lves. Not surprsngly, the U.S. mltary expects lttle ntal Condomn ERRATA t search for truth. For a unversty s not supposed to be a place n whch we all necessarly come to agree on all ssues, but a place n whch we learn to thnk for ourselves, n whch we learn to nteract cvlly wth people of dfferng opnons, and n whch we learn to dsagree peaceably when and f that becomes necessary. Sadly, t appears that MT, lke most colleges and unverstes today, has forgotten that. Alex J. McDonough Cambrdge There was a reportng error n the translaton of the Hebrew phrase "Shanah tovah" ["Frst Couple Attends MT Rabb's Servce," Sept. 13]. The phrase lterally translates to "Good year," and the greetng "Shanah tovah" means "[Have a] good year." n addton, the sub-headlne of the artcle about the Harvard Cooperatve Socety ["Coop Rebate Not Lkely Ths Year," Sept. 13] may halve been nsleadng. The regular patronage rebate has not been permanently replaced or abolshed. U.S. Must Not Repeat Past Errors n Hat resstance. As for the home front, the Amercan publc currently opposes nvason, but that could change. What should concern the Clnton admnstraton more s that Amercans maytv promptly forget the nvason ever occurred, and few polcy makers wll then concern themselves wth cleanng up the problems that led to the nterventon. f that happens. the result wll be no better than the outcome of the last U.S. experence n Hat.

Chtaley COLUMNST have always looked forward to the Harvard Cooperatve Socety's rebate. thnk of the Coop rebate as a lttle unexpected present, sort of lke fndng a washed dollar bll n your back pocket. Wth the outrageous prces that we pay for textbooks, tuton, and everythng else, the rebate was always a sgn that we were not beng altogether abused. Other than the rebate, the Coop has always just sort of exst- _.--_- L r _. ed -- just another overprced department store to wander through. 'm not partcularly sure about the Coop's hstory, but guess that servng student needs when department stores were few and far between had somethng to do wth t. But does the department store model work today? ts orgnal msson notwthstandng, the Coop has for the most part ceased to serve students. t's tme for MT and Harvard to re-examne the Coop's role on campus. The latest news about the Coop rebate, or lack thereof, lends credence to the vew that MT and Harvard should scrap the exstng Coop. n prevous years the Coop served ts membershp by producng rebates n the double dgts. By my freshman year, the rebate just covered Massachusetts sales tax. When questoned about declnng rebates, the classc Coop response has ranged from, "t was a tough year," to, "We're tryng real hard." n short, lots of charts, graphs, and equvocaton. Fortunately the management of the Coop has created a new textbook rebate to assuage the masses; for the vast majorty of students, ths rebate wll be equvalent to or better than the usual rebate. But to measure our satsfacton by the rebate alone s narrowmnded. Hove, from Page 4 thnk of the G4 a lttle unexpecbted present. e ndependent of the rebate queston, what sort of servce s the Coop provdng to the academc communty or ts members? Consder books. The Coop does reman one of the fnest booksellers n the area, but Waterstone's (Exeter and Newbury Streets) and Quantum Books (Kendall Square) are formdable compettors for techncal and scence books, wth dstance no longer an advantage. The same s true for musc; wth Tower Records and HMV, two fabulous musc stores, oop rebate as the once noteworthy Coop musc department s no longer the best. And wth so many major department stores (ncludng an entre mall complete wth Gap) so nearby, the Coop can only margnally compete as a department store. As for thngs lke offce supples, Staples and even Unversty Statonary are hard to beat. That only leaves posters and nsgna wear as areas where the Coop can be compettve. (n Harvard Square, nsgna sells well and the poster shop s along the street.) The textbook busness deserves more attenton because t s ndcatve of how the Coop operates. Coordnatng the b-annual purchasng and dstrbuton of text books s certanly the Coop's most crtcal functon. Yet the floor space devoted to textbooks s n the most dffcult area to reach: a basement comer. And the sze of the floor space s woefully nadequate for the number of books and traffc volume. The Coop does not do much of a coordnaton job ether. Shouldn't the Coop, nstead of students, be responsble for naggng faculty and departments, to turn n book orders on tme? t seems lke an effcent functon that could serve both students and faculty well. 1 wonder whether the Coop thnks about busness from ths perspectve? So what should we do wth the Coop? Frst U.S. Should Learn from ts P ng Secretary of the Navy nformng hm n one paragraph that "State Department desres that Amercan forces be landed Port au Prnce.... Department has ordered U.S.S. Jason wth marnes Guantanamo, Cuba, proceed mmedately Port au Prnce. f more forces absolutely necessary wre mmedately." So began the Unted States' frst mltary escapade n Hat. Caperton followed hs orders to occupy Port-au-Prnce, and soon expanded the U.S. occupaton throughout the entre country. For the next 20 years, U.S. Marnes held Hat n an attempt to pacfy the countrysde, protect foregn busness nterests, and, hopefully, make the tny naton "safe for democracy." Sxty years snce the end of the occupaton, nobody s suggestng repeatng that partcular epsode of Amercan hstory. But, assumng the Unted States does go forward wth ts nvason plans, another occupaton wll take place. Clnton's planners apparently hope for better success ths tme around. There s no doubt that, so far, Clnton's t-,,lanners have done a far 'etter job preparng for the trals of occupaton than dd Wlson's. n 1915, the State Department consdered that Hat would mmedately accept the rule of a U.S.-pcked presdent, and that no Hatan would doubt the good ntentons of even a long Amercan mltary presence n the country. n 1994, the State Department wants only to re-nstall a prevously elected presdent whose ouster three years ago by the current junta could never be vewed as legtmate. Ths tme around, the Clnton admnstraton has planned for a U.S. occupaton lastng only a few months, to be followed by a somewhat longer stay by a U.S.-domnated and U.S.-led Unted Natons command. Accordng to these plans, even the nternatonal forces would only stay for two years - as opposed to the 20 year occupaton earler ths century. An even greater contrast can be drawn between the problems that led to Amercan nterventon n 1915 and the concerns that have brought the Clnton admnstraton to the brnk of nvason. n 1915, the State Department prmarly concerned tself wth protectng the lves of U.S. natonals and the busness nterests of U.S. corporatons operatng n Hat. Specfcally, State wanted to keep cvl unrest n Hat from damagng the property of an Amercan ralroad. The U.S. also wanted to prevent any Hr-'ata go.ver.lmt.uom ue.aultng on Hat's debt. As a secondary objectve, U.S. planners hoped to protect the Monroe Doctrne by preventng Hatan naval concessons to European powers. n contrast to the economc and power-poltcs aspratons of ther predecessors, today's nterventonsts have an almost entrely humantaran agenda. They despse the nghtly slaughter of defenseless Hatan slumdwellers. nfants and small chldren have been a partcularly przed target for the so-called attachess" -- rogue youths afflated wth the rulng mltary. Whle the vast bulk of Hatans worry about how to survve the daly menu of murder and absolute poverty, Hat's tny mddle class, whch has supported the rulng junta, lves on n a relatvely dyllc prosperty. Worse stll, U.S. sanctons amed at brngng down the junta seem to hurt only the poor. Most of those who have argued about whether to nvade have gnored more mportant questons: f we nvaded, what would we do n Hat? Would we repeat the mstakes made by the Marnes 60 years ago? Or would we help rectfy them? f we cannot do artny better than we dd durng our frst 20 years of occupaton, then t seems obvous that nterventon n Hat wll serve no other purpose than to gve Hatans another temporary repreve from the kllng felds. n order to avod ths, we must frst examne the lessons of the frst nvason. When the Marnes arrved on the beaches n 91,, 5, they found a naton wracked by constant nternecne volence. No poltcal leader could keep hs hands on the regns of government for longer than a few years; the success of one revolt would herald nothng more than the begnnng of another. The Hatan people L thngs frst, thnk the Coop should use ts valuable real estate to ts advantage. 'm not sure whether the Coop owns or leases ther space, but do not see a need for a Coop n Kendall Square. n fact, before the renovaton of the Student Center n the late 1980's, the entre MT Coop was located on campus. f they own the Kendall Square locaton, they should rent t to someone else, and use the ncome to subsdze textbooks. n addton to possble fnancal advantages, everyone (except us poor economcs majors n E52) could do wthout the long march for text books. More mportant than real estate s merchandse. The Coop should abandon the department store concept for somethng more focused on academc needs. n my mnd, ths translates nto specalty books and textbooks, and supples. And when say supples, the Coop wll have to sell them n Staples-lke quanttes and prces. guess the specfcs can be argued about, but the sprt s the same: Abandon the department store concept. a] t Exclusve of bus- The Coop shol d abandon he departm tsmore concept for son hethng more focused on atca4denc needs. revous Occupaton ' ' OcY -b5" - ct.l ja- lro A.,Sa.L " j ness ssues, major govemance questons need to be resolved. At ths tme the Coop s governed by the stockholders. They are really just trustees who only meet a few tmes a year for governance functons. The management decsons are made by the Board of Drectors, half of whom are students (graduate and undergraduate) from MT and Harvard. Dd you know that we have student members on the Board of Drectors? don't know ther names, but we have at least three undergraduates and graduate students. The student drectors, elected annually, are there to make our voce heard n mportant management decsons. But the realty of retal management often leaves the Drectors wth few optons, partcularly wthout the same proft motve that commercal retal enterprses enjoy. Many mght beleve that aggressve student acton or more democratc (.e. non-corporate) governance wll fx the Coop. do not agree. thnk aggressve student nterest s absolutely necessary, but thnk our actons must be thoughtful and grounded n a sold analyss of the Coop's busness. MT Senor Vce Presdent Wllam R. Dckson '56 recounts a Coop annual meetng durng the 1960's, when students had too much free tme, where the students mpeded busness by refusng to even approve the mnutes of the last meetng. (As an avd user of Robert's Rules of Order, fnd ths amusng.) Apart from notng that the Coop once had annual meetngs, ths anecdote suggests that the Coop needs to run lke a busness, wthout the "student revoluton" atttude and whnng _ After all, students are just one consttuency, albet a sgnfcant one, of the Coop's membershp. The governance needs to change to empower the varous consttuences that the Coop serves. n the fnal analyss, the Coop must be streamlned and re-focused on the academc communty. Snce have yet to take a sngle subject n retal busness management, hestate to be too specfc. But the sprt s clear: The Coop needs to re-embrace the academc communty and fundamental servces at ts core. Only then wll the Coop's management be able to muster the necessary forces to move the Coop forward.

Concert at Foxboro Stadum Sept. 5, 7:30 p.m. By Scott Deskn ASSOCA TE AR S EDTOR ard as t may seem, the Rollng Stones have been around for more than three decades. They are rock musc's quntessental survvors, outlastng ther Brt-rock compatrots n the Beatles and the Who, and rdng out every concevable movement n popular musc over the past two decades so that they don't have to prove themselves anymore. n fact, the Stones have not done that much to advance ther collectve reputaton n recent years: Most of ther efforts n the 1980s- Undercover, Drty Work, Steel Wheels - run the gamut from repulsve attempts at poltcal conscousness to a slck and somewhat lazy studo professonalsm. Wth Voodoo Lounge, the Stones' latest release, the band members (sans recentlydeparted bassst Bll Wyman) reclam some of ther lost youth, eschewng the trademark freshness and aggresson that dentfes some of ther most vbrant albums of the late '60s and early '70s. The band sounds sold, and sometmes great, for most of the album. The songs, however, are the real revelaton, wth lyrcs that somehow blend the gratutous and THE ARTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Stones reclam lost youth on Voood Lounge album *d.0rd k~ mmm 4mrr.. blatant sexualty that s a hallmark of the Stones' tradton wth the maturty and wsdom of mddle age. For my money, at least, the formulac songs that kck off the album (especally "Sparks Wll Fly," a shameless rp-off of songs lke "Start Me Up") are redeemed by a treasure trove of heartfelt and unposed song-'? wrtng: "New Faces" 0llG S.TOnE and "Out of Tears" boast f an acerbc style of balladry, complete wth harpschord and organ; A-.. "Blnded by Ranbows" - s a pognant evocaton of the fghtng n reland, a better ant-war song than "Hghwre" from Steel Wheels (1989); "The Worst" and "Thru and Thru" gve the spotlght on vocals to gutarst Keth Rchards, who once agan proves that he can really sng. The Voodoo Lounge tour, whch passed through Foxboro Stadum on a chlly Labor Day weekend, showed that ths revval n the band's nstncts was no fluke. They began ther set wth "Not Fade Away," a drumheavy shuffle from the band's early career. had heard that the band looked a bt stff openng wth ths number at ther frst performance at JFK Stadum n Washngton, D.C., but ths proved to be a fne warm-up to the rest of the show. As ths was not a conventonal "greatest hts" tour, the concert plunged deep nto the Jagger-Rchards songbook. Thus, gems fom albums lke Let t Bleed (1969), Exle on Man Street (1972), and Some Grls (1978) sounded fresh and vtal. n fact, the four songs from Exle - whch 1- *- remans an album : B -- ;^S revered by musc crtcs?:,'-'y - ~.and true Stones loyalsts, but s seemngly :B : - : ^ unknown to the rest of the world - breathed Py~g **} lfe nto the concert amdst some of the less 81 ^successful new materal. Dce," "All Down the Lne," and Keth Rchards' "Happy" were all emotonal wrngers. The show tself was techncally superb. The stage had an ntertwnng grd backdrop of hundreds of lghts that pulsed n tme to the musc, and a rather phallc 300-foot-hgh, steel, fre-breathng snake hovered over the performers. Gant nflatable people (one of whom looked lke Elvs Presley) appeared suddenly late n the show. Large vdeo montors ntermttently showed anmaton, stock footage, and computer-altered lve mages from the stage for everyone to see. The somewhat raunchy, burlesque montage of mages La^ 1"Tumblng!!V%31 that accompaned "Honky Tonk Women" was funny and well-deserved of the Stones' reputaton. But t was the performers who nevtably carred the show. Mck Jagger, now 51, stll remans a hghly physcal performer. f hs voce sometmes slurred song lyrcs (lke n the urban stream-of-conscousness datrbe of "Shattered" from Some Grls), t was forgvable. The rest of the band played exceptonally well, wth fnely meshed gutar rffs from Rchards, Ron Wood, and new bassst Darryl Jones fttng n well wth Charle Watts' strong, relable drummng. don't know f the Rollng Stones wll perform agan for qute a whle -- the muscans certanly don't need the money. But was mpressed that they gave a strong showng n ths concert tour, as f just to prove that they're not content wth merely "survvng." For me, the concert was as close to fulfllment of a rock and roll dream as could hope, and three segments stll seem vvd to me: Frst, the delcacy of the song "Memory Motel," on whch Jagger played keyboards; second, the emergence of Mck fom the floor of the stage for "Love s Strong," dressed as a psychedelc Mad Hatter; and last, the grand fnale, whch culmnated wth "Street Fghtng Man," "Brown Sugar," and "Jumpng Jack Flash." Jagger sad halfway durng the performance, "t's cold out here. Let's see f we can warm t up a bt." Wth hot musc and sprted executon, the band fulflled hs wsh.

15 - m September 16, 1994 THE TECH Page 15 Half-Year Polce Report Shows Slght Decrease n Campus Crme By Shang-Ln Chuang On-campus crme n the frst half of the year has decreased greatly compared to a year ago, accordng to the Campus Polce md-year report. Fewer larcenes, calls for servce, and obscene or annoyng phone calls were reported. "The reducton s a very good sgn, but wth crme rate you wll always see some type of fluctuaton," sad Chef of Campus Po!ce Anne P. Glavn. "Hopefully, t was because of good securty practces and good crme preventon technques." Although t s stll the bggest problem on campus, the number of thefts has declned from 475 n 1993 to 213 n The total value of stolen property decreased by more than 30 percent, whle the value of recovered property ncreased 300 percent. "Agan, thngs lke ths vary from year to year," Glavn sad. "The nvestgaton effort of the offcers may have somethng to do wth [the decrease], but there are many varables assocated wth t," she sad. "MT s n a densely populated ~~gsrsn~ ~~- sp - l~~- --- e ~ -~~--- ~ -~-L ~~ C~~~~ -"--L~--- _ r- L 1- urban area n whch some of the crmes are bound to overlap nto the campus area," Glavn sad. "To thnk that we can elmnate them altogether s qute unrealstc," she sad. "The best thng that students can do s to practce good crme preventon and be constantly aware of where they are and what they are dong. Lttle thngs lke that do add up and contrbute to the protecton of personal property and safety," Glavn sad. The number of calls for servce fell by more than 25 percent, from 1,043 last year to 768 ths year. Although the number of calls can be used to provde a rough pcture of the crme rates on campus, "there s no real correlaton," Glavn sad. There were only 28 arrests made by md-1994, compared to the 41 arrests made by md Serous crmes unchanged The number of serous crmes aganst the person category has been consstent for the past several years. Ths year there were nne assaults - four aggravated and fve smple. n addton to the statstcs on crme, Campus Polce also reported that Safe Rde usage ncreased by 45 percent to 96,463 rdes ths year. "Every year the number of rders goes up and up. But as have sad before, Safe Rde s a vctm of ts own success," Glavn sad. "t s dffcult for Safe Rde to accommodate so many rders, and then we run nto the problem of watng tme," she sad. Campus Polce s not currently plannng to add any more vans to the four already n servce. "There wll always be a demand and you have to draw the lne somewhere because there s no endless pot of money," Glavn sad. The report also sad that Campus Polce handled 1,043 emergency medcal servces by md-year. These ncluded medcal emergences, ambulance transfers, and medcal shuttles. Campus Polce dstrbuted 1 72 crme preventon notces n the tme perod. "There s ample opportunty for the MT communty to learn about crme preventon and hopefully the communty wll be more aware and put these practces to use," Glavn sad. THOMAS R.

M. Wlson '70, Buckholz's academc advser, MacDonald sad. After the fght, Sheaffer had to be taken to the nfrmary where he was treated and released. Ths decson follows Buckholz's earler legal battles wth the COD, whch frst recommended hs expulson, and n court, where he pad Sheaffer $500 n an out-ofcourt settlement. Buckholz's case s a good example of the courts' general unwllngness to nterfere wth unversty dscplnary procedures, MacDonald sad.

"MT's dscplnary system s very unforgvng," MacDonald added. _1Van _ AS =M l a B B l L n an earler ntervew. MacDonald had referred to Buckholz's COD hearng as based.

Osgood sad that whle MT's dscplnary process has undergone a few mnor changes snce 1985, the overall system was "very far to all partes nvolved." Osgood dsmssed allegatons that Buckholz's suspenson hearng was based, sayng that MacDonald's characterzatons of the COD were naccurate.

Shortly afterwards, Pavel Volsbeyn G (who had come on for Rodrgo Capaz G) snuck through the Charles Rver defense to deftly send a header from another leftwng cross thuddng aganst the foot of the rght post.

Because the varsty eght race decdes who wll be the champon of the NEW-8 Regatta, MT's name wll go on the wnner's plaque for the second year n a row. The second novce boat had another outstandng performance, crushng the competton agan. Wth a tme of 7:55, t fnshed 37 seconds before any the next boat. Ths boat has been consstently wnnng wth margns of ths magntude and s expected to do very well at the Natona Champonshps at the end of the season. The opponents dd not have a thrd varsty boat so both the MT second and thrd varsty boats raced n the second varsty race. MT lost ths match-up by a har to Mount Holyoke; MHC crossed the lne
