This year, as most of you have noticed, The California Tech is being printed by a new, cheaper process. More complete details were included in our first issue, but to Techers probably the most important consideration is that we should hopefully be able to increase the length of our papers by significant amounts. Eight pages should be a minimum. (At this in the year the constraint has been on staff time, not finances.) As eight·page papers this year cost about the same as four-pagers did last year, ad revenue is no longer a strong consideration in number of pages, while it had been the primary one in the past. If we can obtain the staff necessary to do the work necessary, which we haven't yet, we can print far more this year than ever before. And we hope to. But we want to print more than just random columns and space filler and news releases. We want to print interesting, relevant material about CALTECH SEAL-From bigger to smaller (or left to right, if you prefer) are the original "Millikan" seal, the more recent "torch Caltech. We want to print news. News that you are interested in, news that passing" seal, and the new official one. you can't find anywhere else. When .1 came here in '66, just before the Rhodes Era, the student government did almost nothing, there was no attempt at communication, and little need for it. Soon, however, the alphabet soup began pouring all Rouge et Noir over Caltech. Things were happening. All sorts of things. Things were happening in a manner highly unsatisfactory to some and vaguely dissatisfying to many. But still there was no communication, and virtually no competent effort at it that I ever saw.
