Saltman Hits At Irrational Conformists
By GREG HILL
Conformity is not necessarily a weakness unless the conforming individual is contradicting his own values in the process, Dr.
Paul D. Saltman explained yesterday.
“You should conform only after an examination of the values which have been bestowed upon you by jour parents, your teachers, your education,” Dr. Saltman said at the Freshman Forum meet ing.
The biochemistry professor pointed out several of the characteristics of conformity that make it appealing to the individual, citing principally the comfort to the individual.
Group Comforting “A group is a very comforting unit,” Dr. Saltman said. “In it we find a reflection of ourselves, and this is very satisfying to us. Conformity is easy—we all do it to some extent.
Weaken Individual “Also it is difficult in our present society to avoid conformity,” he continued. "From the beginning our children are indoctrinated and impinged upon to conform to the group.” Dr. Saltman contended, however, that instruction rather than indoctrination is preferable in acquainting the individual with the conformist groups. The Caltech graduate advocated a questioning attitude. an awareness of conformity.

"I am against conformity unless it in turn conforms to the individual's own ideas.” Dr. Saltman maintained. “Loneliness is not as comfortable as conformity, but at the same time it may be the only wayj to express yourself personally.” Dr. Saltman also panned conformity for its intellectual nature and for the ethics of various conformist groups.

Politicos Await Election Verdict
By VIRGINIA BODIN Elections Reporter
More than 1,100 student voters crowded intO|
Alumni Park in front of Doheny Library yesterday to swell voting lines and cast ballots on the opening day; of what had been expected to be relatively quiet ASSC election.
Although voting lines moved slowly, the 10 booths were filled during most of the polling.
Balloting will continue between 9 and 4 today, after which all vct.es will be totaled by an IBM counter.
Campaigners representing Ken Del Conte and Hal Stokes were on hand all day with counters to tally the number of students voting. Two different figures were reached. A 1.125 count was recorded by Del Conte supporters, while 1.139 was counted by Stokes followers.
The ballot boxes were taken to Assistant Dean of Students Tom Hull’s office immediately following the closing of the polls. They were kept in Hull’s apartment at Trojan Hall last night.
Unmarked ballots were locked in the assistant dean of students office for the night.
Final returns will be announced by the Elections Commission at 6 30 in the Student Union Lounge.
The heavy turnout coincided with a last-minute outburst of campaign enthusiasm that prompted a late afternoon meeting of the Board of Inquiry.
Immediately following the closing of the polls the board met to decide several protests filed against; various candidates in the past two weeks.
A protest was filed by Jack Gleason, campaign manager for Del Conte against a letter distributed to various living groups titled “An open letter to Ken Del Conte.”
The board made no decision on the protest, but referred it to the dean of students’ office.

Management Change, Expert Says
Tomorrow’s manager will be a policy designer rather than a decision maker, an industrial management expert said last night In
Hancock Auditorium.
Dr. Jay W. Forrester, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor of industrial management, explained that tomorrow’s manager will not create factories to tom out one new automobile after another.
However, the manager will create organizations to turn out one new product design after another. Dr. Forrester, also a teacher and reseacher in the new field of industrial dynamics, said.
Build Directly “It is now possible to build directly an integrating reference structure rather than leaving it to chance and to the intuitive synthesis of experience.” he continued. "Industrial dynamics provides the analysis now needed as a basis for I design of improved policies and 1 management systems.”
Dr. Forrester explained that ¡the first step of the industrial ¡dynamics approach is to iden-j tify the major goals of the organization and the extent to which performance falls short
