"We know how to improve air-
craft safety-we're finally making
improvements," Prof. Paul M.,
Fitts of the psychology department
said yesterday concerning Project
Beacon, the recently announced
air traffic control program.
The 14-point program, released
Sunday by President John F. Ken-
nedy, calls for the use of alti-
tude and identity reporting bea-
con transponders, extensive use
of military control systems, and'
Federal Aviation Administration'
control over planes flying above
24,000 feet in mountainous areas,
14,500 feet in the airlanes or 8,000
feet over congested areas.
Speed Routing
Other suggestions included se-
gregation by speed of airlanes and
terminal areas and a speed limit
of 230 miles an hour for plands
under the altitude of 8,000 feet.
"The beacon transponder, a de-
vice which receives a radar pulse
and automatically responds with
a signal indicating the plane's
identification and altitude would
be a great aid to increased safety,"
Fitts, a former researcher in the
human engineering aspects of air
traffic control systems, said.
Could Avert Collisions
"If the beacon system had been
in general use a year ago, the
air crash over New York City, last
December, probably would not

"There is really no such thing
as defense in the nuclear age,"
Donald Keys, program director
for SANE Nuclear Policy Inc., said
yesterday.
Keys, in a lecture on "Mankind
In Suicide," explained the holo-
cast of a nuclear war and then
noted that "we must make sure
that the deterrent doesn't become
the detergent."
Membership in the nuclear club
is "getting out of hand," he noted.
Any reactor which is used for
peaceful purposes will build up
by-products which can be used in
the production of atomic weapons,
Keys explained.
Both Sides Stand Firm
Both sides are standing firm,
but neither believes the other's
willingness "to commit national
suicide." Thus the governments
take extra risks to convince the
world of their firmness, and it
amounts to a "Russian roulette
with nuclear bombs," he said.
One of the biggest breakthroughs
in this "vicious circle of increas-
ing insecurity" is the agreement
on general principles for disarm-
ament negotiations between the
United States and the Soviet Un-
T
ion.
Under this agreement, all na-
tions would have virtually total
disarmament, retaining only small
arms to maintain order within
the country, with the United Na-
tions settling international dis-
putes, he explained.
'Reciprocal Paranoia'
The major problem between the
East and West on disarmament
is the "reciprocal paranoia." The
Russians are worried that inspec-
tion will be used to supplement
United States intelligence efforts
and the United States believes
that without inspection there is
no assurance of disarmament.
Comparing the United States
and Russia to "the mongoose and
the cobra," Keys said that inter-
national politics should be more
.than a reaction to Soviet maneu-

PROF. PAUL M. FITTS
... air safety
have happened, because the plane
controller at La Guardia airport
could have warned the jet not
under his control of the danger,
knowing that the planes were at
the same altitude.
Beacons Inexpensive
The beacons will cost a maxi-
mum of $500 apiece, according to
the Project Beacon committee.
"We can no longer depend on
pilots to avert midair collisions
with their small 'cone' of vision
from the cockpit of the plane."
Fitts concluded. "I would definitely
recommend the FAA sponsor long
range research, projects, especially
investigating the possibilities of
computers, in addition to their
present short range plans."
Hatcher To Hold
open Io use, teva
vers. We should regain the "moral
initiative," he said.
Other questions should not
be subject to involvement in the
arms race. If they are, the ex-
ploration of outer space could
change from man's greatest ad-
venture to his "prelude to an obit-
uary," Keys noted.

The communication sciencesj
program anticipates approximately
70 graduate students for the aca-
demic year 1962-63.
This will be an increase , of 25
students over the present enroll-
ment of 45 and, represents ap-
preciable growth over the three
graduate students enrolled in the.
program at its inception in 1957-
58.
Since 1957, one doctorate and
ten masters degrees have been
awarded.. Prof. John Holland re-
ceived the first doctorate in 1959
and is now the first-professor of
communication sciences.
Concerned with, Theory
A unique doctorate program, the
laboratory and cognated curricu-
lum is concerned with understand-
ing on a theoretical basis the com-
munication and processing of in-
formation by both natural and
artificial systems. Natural sys-
tems include the biological facili-
ties for speech and artificial sys-
tems encompass computer and
symbolic communication.
The basis for
the communica-I
tion sciences is interdisciplinary
in nature with foundations pri-
marily in five bordering disci-
plines: mathematics; electrical
engineering; physiology; psychol-
ogy; and linguistics.
The eight major areas of study
currently emphasized in the pro-
gram are computers, adaptive sys-
tems, automata, system simula-
tion, speech communications,
mathematical linguistics, psycho-
linguistics and semantics.
Offers Special Courses
Offering 20 special courses and
intergrating many of the math,
electrical engineering, philosophy,
psychology, and linguistics courses
already offered, the program pre-
pares graduate students for any
phase of the communication
sciences.
Student work is supplemented
by a research laboratory, which is
technically independent of the
program and employs a separate
full time research team.
Research is structured to polish
and fill in the "rough diamond"
of communication relationships
(see diagram).
The four points of the diamond
are formal systems (computer and
symbolical) formal language, na-
tural (biological and verbal) sys-
tems and natural language. The
striations of the diamond are
between the kiown areas.
