Architects Urged

. . New York, N.Y.-(Sclcntific
American Feature)-In terms
of performance the structures
erected by primitive, prehter
ate people considerably out
distance those of contempo
rary architects, according to
James Marston titch and
Daniel P. Branch, respective
ly associate professor of his
tory in the school of archi
tecture at Columbia Univer
sity and a Florida architect.
Faced by the necessity of
coping with an environment
' that is scarcely ever genial
and of building with materials
that are often appalingly
meager in quantity or restrict

structures that reveal a very
high level of performance,
even when judged in the light
of modern technology. Fitch
and Branch declare. "Their
work reflects a precise and
detailed knowledge of local
climate conditions on the one
hand, and on the other a re
markable understanding of the
characteristics of the building
materials locally available.
"Of course primitive archi
tecture, like primitive medi
cine or primitive agriculture,"
they acknowledge, "often has
a maglco - religious rationale
that is of interest only to
anthropologists. But is practice-that
is, how things are
done, as distinct from the rea
sons offered for doing them
is apt to be surprisingly sensi
ble. This illogical situation is
characteristic of prescientific
technologies: the Roman archi
tect Vitruvius, writing during
the reign of Augustus, gives
excellent formulas for con
crete and stucco, but his ex
planation of their 'chemistry'
makes no sense at all. The
primitive architect works in
an economy of scarcity-his
resources in materials and
energy are severely restricted.
Yet he has little margin for
error in coping with natural
forces: gravity, heat, cold,
wind, mow, rain and flood.
Both his theory and his prac
tice are strictly determined by
these conditions. In contrast,
the abundance of fuels that
supply both heat and air con
ditioning enables modern
architects to make a fetish of
non-functional glass walls, to
mention only one of many pos
sible examples, quite per
suaded that climate and geo
graphic cause-and-effect 'don't
matter any more.'
"The primitives evolved the
snow-constructed igloo for the
Arctic, the tent of the nomads,
the adobe construction for the
steppes and open, thatched
huts for the tropical rain forests-each
an ideal construc
tion for the society and cli
mate for Which it was devel
oped. One could extend the
catalog of variations on these
basic types indefinitely. But
the examples cited are ade
quate to make the point that
primitive man, for all his
scanty resources and lack of
iron tools, builds more wisely
than we do and that in his ar
chitecture he establishes prin
ciples of design that we ignore
at great cost. It would be a
mistake to romanticize his ac
complishments. With respect
to civilized standards of scale,
amenity, safety and perma
nence, the actual forms of his
architecture are totally unsuit
able. Primitive architecture,
however, merits our study for
its principles, not its forms.
"Contemporary U.S. archi
tecture would be greatly en
riched, esthetically as well as
operationally, by a sober
analysis of its primitive tra
ditions. Nor would it be
stretching things to include
in these traditions the siir.Ole
but excellent architecture of
the early white settlers who,
in many respects, were cultur
ally closer to primitive man
than to 20th-century man. The
preindustrial architects of Co
lonial and early 19th-century
America produced designs of
wonderful fitness: the snug,
well-oriented houses of New
England, the cool and breezy
plantation houses of the deep
south, the thick-walled patio
centered haciendas of the
Spanish Southwest. All these
designs should be studied for
the usefulness of their con
cepts, and not merely be
copied for antiquarian reasons."

Spaniards Change
When Behind
Wheel of A Car
Madrid - IUPD - Spain, the
country of siestas and slow
ness, has caught up with the
rush of the modern world in
at least one way - traffic.
Give a courteous, old-worldly,
hand-kissing Spaniard a
car and some change takes
place deep down inside him.
Possibly it isn't quite as
spectacular as the movie hor
ror of a man becoming a
werewolf, but the effect Is
about the same.
Speed is no object, just as
long as there is plenty of it.
There are plenty of police and
traffic lights around, but they
don't help an awful lot.
Whereas a few years ago
the streets of Madrid were un
crowded and easy to drive in,
the growing wealth of Spain
has clogged them with ever
increasing traffic. Unfortun
ately, as Spain has increased
the number of cars, it has not
increased necessary control on
the drivers.
Getting a driver's license in
Spain is difficult. There is a
complicated written test of
some 50 questions. But if that
is passed, then the would-be
driver is almost to the race
way. The driving section of
the test consists of one turn
around a local park. If you
don't hit a tree, you re in.
On Your Own
Once into traffic you're on
your own. The only thing to
remember is that each man
behind the wheel of a car feels
that God granted him at least
one thing - the right of way.
The huge fleet of taxis, most
of them looking at least 100
years old, don't help. Most of
them go about five miles an
hour and give faster drivers a
sort of moving slalom course
to weave in and out of.
There also are little, bug
like cars called "Sin-sins" that
join with the motorcycles and
motorscooters to fill any
spare inches between cars.
The translation of "sin-sin"
means "without - without,"
which comes from the pharse
referring to the drivers of the
little bugs: "Without enough
money to buy a car and with
out enough guts to ride a
motorcycle."
Wooden Carts
On top of all this, every
morning hundreds of huge
wheeled wooden carts pulled
by donkeys lumber into the
city to take out the trash
They finish picking up the
trash at the height of the rush
hour and begin their slow
way out of town. On the nar
row side streets of Madrid
traffic moves just as fast as
the slowest donkey.
Perhaps the Spanish driver
lacks the daring of the French
driver, the stubbornness of the
English driver or the vocabu
lary of the Italian driver.
But he is learning.
Need for Secretarial
Help Is Increasing
New York - IUPD - Employ.
ment agencies in many parts
of the country report a "buy
er's market" for secretarial
help. The business slowdown
has caused some firms to cut
back on office help and to
make greater use of secretar
ial pools.
The Bank of America re
ports applications in San
Francisco are running 50 per
cent ahead of a year ago.
Sound Waves Used io

New York - (UPD - S o u n d

Three Major Counts
Listed for
Of Baby Sitters
By patricia Mccormick
New York-WPB-For safety's
sake and peace of mind, hire
only baby sitters who come

mature judgment and who
enjoy children.

get about going out.
The requisites for safety
where baby sitters are con

ty tips for Parents Hiring
Baby Sitters."
Leave Phone Number
The committee also advises
parents to;
Tell the baby sitter where
you will be and leave the
phone number where you can
be reached.
-Leave the baby sitter the
phone number of the local
police department and the
children's doctor.
Leave exact instructions as
to the care of the children,
what they are to eat, when
they are to go to bed and so
on.
-Review with the baby sit
ter- various escape routes in
case of fire.
The committee's report con
tains general and specific in
structions for the baby sitter
also.
"As a baby sitter, remem
ber that these parents have
entrusted you with their most
valuable and precious posses
sion," tne committee said.
Loving Care Succeeds
"Be sure that your actions
justify this faith in you. If
the children awaken crying
and do not feel feverish, tend
er loving care will usually
be successful In quieting them.
"When an infant is restless
and not feverish, burping,
changing or feeding may also
be needed. If nothing suffices,
call the parents."
Among the specific instruc
tions for the baby sitters are
the following:
In case of illness or acci
dent, contact the parents at
once. If they are not available,
call their doctor. If their doc
tor is not available, call your
own doctor.
Case of smoke or fire, get
the children out of the house
immediately. Don't stop to
dress the children or make
a phone call. Take the chil
dren to the nearest neighbor
and then, and only then, call
the fire department. Then
call the parents.
Strange Noise
In case you hear a strange
noise or sound, remember that
usually such noises or sounds
come from the pipes when
the heat comes on or from a
banging shutter. If you can
not identify a sound, call the
police and then call the par
ents. P.S.-CHp this story before
discarding today's paper.
Mount the instructions on the
bulletin board in the kitchen
-or in a place where you and
the baby sitters can see them.
