Ruggers Win by Dr. Alan COlle At half-time in their game last Saturday, the Caltech Rugby team trailed Pomona by 13 points to zero, and at that time had ;-;hown no indication of being able to improve things when the game restarted. In the first half an aggressive Pomona team had carved huge holes in the Caltech defense. The CaItech of­ fense never really got going. In the second half things started to happen, when Chris Hamer scored a fine penalty goal (3 pts.) with a drop kick, and then Dick Lipes scored a try, roughly equivalent to a football touchdown but worth three points. This followed a run by John Speight which split the Pomona defense wide open. There followed a period of in­ tense offensive play by Cal tech, but the team's efforts were fruitless until the seven minutes before the end. Then the world turned upside down as Peter Dodds, Harry Hyland, and finally Dave Schram ran over for tries. Harry Hyland also gained two points on a conversion after one of the tries. Caltech's reversal was complete. \vith the final score 17-J3 .

Engineering and Science at IBM "The interdisciplinary environment keeps you technologically hot:'

"Working in data processing today pretty much means you work in a broad spectrum of tech­ nologies,"says Nick Donofrio. An Associate Engineer at IBM, Nick is a 1967 graduate in Electrical Engineering. I-Ie's using his technical background to design circuits for computer memory systems. "Circuit design used to be a narrow j b," I,e says. "Today it can take you into the front yard of half a dozen different fields. In my job, for example, I work with systems design engineers, chemists, physicists, metallurgists, and programmers." Nick describes a hypothetical case history: "A memory systems man comes to me with memory circuit requirements. Before I can start designing the circuit, I go to see a physicist. He helps me select an appropriate technology for the monolithic circuit. "As the design develops, I work with a test group and also check back with the systems and semiconductor people to make sure I'm on the right track." Keeping up The interdisciplinary environment at IBM helps you keep up to date technologically. As Nick puts it, "You're constantly exposed to what's happening in other fields." IBM needs technical graduates to work in research, design and development, manufactur­ ing, product test, field engineering, and space and defense projects. We also need technical people in programming and marketing. Visit your placement office
