Powers Defends Disciplinary Action

Paul P. 'Powers, dean of students has deified that" there was anything unusual about the pro- cedure that followed in the reCerit dismissal of a student from the University.

• I n a letter in today's Fiat Lux, Sylvester Christie questions his dismissal "oujsiie of a disciplin- a r y committee or other confer- ence." • ''.:'[

Dean. Powers said that Christie has (received ''fair and thorough treatment" and tJhat his case had been treated as it would have been if any other student were involved. In refusing to discuss de- tails of the case, he said that this silence was in keeping with the University's policy not-to discuss disciplinary action, for the pro- tection of the involved students.

' I n the past, the Dean said, not all cases have been referred to the -disciplinary committee. He did say that members of the administration and faculty had been involved in the final decis- ion to irelease Christie from school.

Russell Kirk To Discuss Liberalism

Dr. Russell Kirk, philosopher of t h e American conservative move- ment, will speak tomorrow in the Parents Lounge of t/he Campus Center.

He will speak twice, at 11 a.m , and a t 2:30 p.m., not at 3:30 p.m.

as reported in the Fiat last week.

H i s talk at 2:30 p.m. will be on

"Disintegrated Liberalism."

Dr. Kirk writes and speaks

•widely on conservative thought, literary criticism, and educational theory. Hugh Gaitskell, the late British Labour Party, <cl>iefvsaid t h a t he set socialism back a gen-

eration.

Dr. Kirk is the author oi many, week.

Specifically Syracuse mentioned the procurement of Ade Hall for social activities, the erection of a central bulletin board on campus, the proposed pond and lodge, and an extended study period im- mediately preceding final exams.

All these. issues have been dis- cussed and approved in principle in the .Senate btrt ail . have been delayed waiting for commitnaents from * the University administra- t i o n Syracuse sat4-

. Syracuse was also* disapppoint- ed in the lack pf . a commitment on a recommendation made by the Senate last week. A1 Els- bart moved at last Tuesday's Sen- ate meeting that the Senate rec-

ommend to the administration that all disciplinary action lead-

ing to expulsion be brought before the disciplinary committee.

The motion was approved unani- mously.

The recommendation was a re- action to the recent dismissal from the University of a student Whose case was not brought before the disciplinary committee.

Because of a lack of satisfaction with this recommendation, tonight Elsbart will make a motion that the Senate adopt a formal reso- lution urging the University to adopt the suggested policy.

All of the problems the Senate is waiting for University action on will no doubt be resolved, said Syracuse. However he thinks final decisions should be reached more expediently.

Two Ag-Tech Fraternities Will Use College Housing

From the Buffalo Courier-Express Two of the three fraternities at a t the State University Agricul- tural and Technical Institute at Alfred say they have agreed to move into college-operated housing units next fall.

A spokesman for Alfred Ag- Tech announced this week that all three fraternities have agreed to move, but members of Psi Delta Omega say they have made no agreement. "The only thing we've agreed to is to listen to the committee," said Richard Morris, president, Thursday.

The committee to which he referred consists, of two students,

Student Advisors

Applications for student advisors wilt be available start- '..-; ing tomorrow from Student Sen- ate representatives. Completed applications must be returned to 4 Senate member or to the 8tudent Offices, upstairs in the Campus Center, by 'March 3.

Members of the faculty will present a talent show March 4 a t 8 p.m. in Alumni Hall, proceedB of which will go to the Campus Chest. Tickets will be on sale for iBO cents beginning tomorrow, at the Campus Center desk and from Blue Key members.

William Nevdns, Dr. Fred Paul- ing, Dr. Melvin Bernstein, Dr.

David Ohara, and Dr. Melvin Le- Mon have acts already planned;

there will be between seven and nine numbers altogether. Fred Palmer will act as master ot cer- emonies.

Dr. Pauling, singing in a Frank SiriatW "manner, will 'include thé

following songs in his act; "You Make Me Feel So Young", "My Funny Valentine", and Let There Be Love." He will be accompanied toy the Dave Miller Trio.

Dr. LeMon has organized a barbershop quarter which will sing iboth serious and comical selections. The members a r e first tenor Dovid Williams, second ten- or Rod Brown, baritone Paul Giles, and bass Kurt Ekdahl.

Dr. Bernstein and Dr. Ohara have each prepared a skit.

The show will reveal the faculty to the students in a new light and will, it is hoped, suceed in f u r t h e r uniting them, a spokes-

man said.

Planning for the show began at the end of November and orig- inated with the Orientation Com- mittee headed by Dave Miller and Tickie Kelly. Now the or- ganizing is in the hands of the freshman and sophomore officers.

Blue Key used to put on such a talent show but the tradition has not been revived until now. In one of the former shows there was an act in which members of the administration played a pro- spective student and his inter- viewer, and another time Pres. M.

Ellis Drake took the role of a jan- itor.

two persons appointed by college President Walter C. Hinkle, and a faculty member. The committee is to visit other state and private colleges to learn how they handle fraternity housing, and then report.

"We are still hoping the fraternity ban will be rescinded,"

said Richard Kulva, president of Kappa Sigma Epsilon. Dick Mas- ters, president of Gamma Theta Gamma, echoed his sentiment.

Both fraternities have agreed to move.

Hinkle announced on Jan. 6 that as of June 14, the college will no longer recognize fraternities as liVing units.

The Btudents protested the ban with a "funeral march" that in- eluded 'burning "coffins" repre- senting' the three houses, and asked that the ban be WSclndeA.-

The ban will affect about 80 fraternity members. In addition, the three fraternities have about 50 pledges.

Morris said Psi Delta Omega Is contacting its alumni to gain support to keep their living unit intact. All three fraternities own tbelr own houses. Corporations would be broken up and the houses sold If members move Into college housing.

The college has offered the fraternities small dorms for their exclusive use, or, if they cannot' fill the dorms, separate wings in larger dorms.

Fly to Europe

The College Center of the Finger Lakes will sponsor a student-chartered flight to Eu- rope this summer for students of the seven member colleges.

Any students interested! in such a flight at minimum cost should attend a meeting Thursday, Feb.

20 at 7 p.m. in room B of the Camp>us Center.

Gulf Oil Gives Second Grant

Alfred University has received the second cash grant in as many months from Gulif Oil Corporation.

President M. Ellis Drake received a check for $936 from R. M.

Scaife, Syracuse Area Sales Man- ager, to be used at the discretion of the University.

The g r a n t was one of 692 awards, totaling $500,000 that Gulf will distribute this year as di-

rect, unrestricted grants to as many colleges and universities. To be eligible, institutions must be and must obtain a major portion of their financial support from privately operated and controlled non-tax sources.

The Education Assistance program of Gulf also includes other types of grants, scholarships and fellowships. Last month the firm awarded a $1,00.0 unrestricted De- partmental Assistance grant to the chemistry department at Al- fred University.

Opinion

Skeates Tells All in Interview

by Warren Savin

Steve Skeates, who writes those brilliant pieces of cinema-critique, was recently inter- viewed by this reporter. His views on campus affairs, international relations, sex, and other related topics were found by this reporter to me none less than astute.

I found Steve, wearing his usual pair of sunglasses and many layers of shirts and sweaters, silently sitting alone in the Cam- pus Center cafeteria. He was pres- ently reading a book entitled

"¡Mysticism in Zen: Its Practical Application," as his cup of coffee Silently cooled.

"How do you do, Mr. Skeates,"

I said in characteristic Fiat style.

"I'm from the Fiat IMX, and I've been sent by that wonderful fea- t u r e editor, Lin ¡Bessett, to interview you."

Steve spoke quickly. The words Bowed poetically from his lips, bttt with a force equal to a troop Of a r m y ants advancing on a fall- en orange. "How about that," h e Mid.

" F i r s t off, I would like to ask your opinion on campus life," I Mid as I sat down across from Mm. „

" I would like to say ¿ t the OUt-set, t h a t campus life is simply that, campus life, and we cannot attempt to incorporate any of t h e other ramifications of existence in this rather specific gen- eralization."

"Yes, well, I quite agree. I would like now to continue our discussion with your views on international relations."

"Oh, yes. Well, those too, in a way. I mean, can we really have t h e (gall) to express an opinion upon this topic. After all, life may be within our scope but only on the personal level. We have no t r u e contact with much of that Which is called international relations. Therefore an opinion upon this 'becomes simply a personal opinion, for it is simply perceived International relations and not

true international relations. And furthermore, if this Is simply a personal opinion, do we, as citizens of a democracy, have t h e right to state our views so that foreign powers can hear and, yes, even distort and use."

"Well, yes, this, of course, is the view t h a t I have been pon- dering for quite some time now.

As our final question, I would like to ask your opinion en the question of sex."

"What question is that?"

"Well, yes, that's true. I never really thought of It that way.

That's good. That's very good. Or as a philosopher would say, that's quite metaphysical. Well, Mr.

Skeates, it ihas been enlightening speaking to you this afternoon."

He nodded like a man who knew more than he let on, as I slowly drifted away through the crowd, tripping, a s I went, only one girl carrying coffee.

Ketchum Discusses Oceanography/

We Must Harvest the Sea Says

It is estimated that man now takes about 30 million pounds of fish per year from the seas and one of t h e objectives of oceanography is to enable man to increase this food supply, Dr. Bost- wlck H. Ketchum, associate director of Woods Hole Ocean- ographic Institution, told a ca- pacity audience in Myers Hall, Feb. 10.

"We are striving to find a way to harvest the oceans as we harvest the land," Dr. Ketchum said.

EJeserch in the oceans also seeks t o learn more about water circulation, the affect of thè a n d the composition and depth of oceans on the earth's weather, t h e contours of t h e ocean floor, a n d the composition and depth of

•lit deposits on the bottom. Coree from t h e ocean floor tell much about the history of life in t h e oceans and of events on land be- trayed by deposits of volcanic ash, water borne silt or dust car- ried to sea by the winds.

The veteran oceanographer showed elides of t h e facilities a t Woods Hole, Mass., the ships of t h e Institution, and the work of scientific expeditions a t sea. He also showed a sound motion pic- t u r e about the science

Dr. Ketchum pointed out that In comparison to biology and Chemistry, oceanography is a very young science. He eaid Benjamin F r a n k l i n was t h e f i r s t American to make good oceanographic ob- servations. His curiosity was

aroused by the fact that the mail packets coming from England by t h e most direct sea route took several days longer than those taking a longer more southerly route. He persuaded »hip cap- tains to let him examine log en- tries stating their daily positions and from that data he published In 1778 a map of the Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic.

Continuing research in the oceans was not undertaken until t h e establishment of Plymouth Laboratory in England and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Dr. Ketchum said. He has served on virtually every ship operated by the Institution for the past 24 years and Is the author of more than 40 scientific articles.

St. Pat's Board Revises Rules For Floats

Revised specifications for the floats and the 1964 festival theme,

"St. iPat in Cartoons", have been released by the St. Pat's Board.

The Board made float revisions because of the financial situa- tion of several fraternities and sororities, said Dennis New- bury, co-chairman of the Board.

This year's theme was chosen by the Board, which contacted IPC and ISC, and asked each sorority and fraternity to construct a float if they'Wished. À steer- "

ing committee, e x p o s e d of a representative from each participat- ing group, made the decisions concerning the float specifications.

The cost of t h e floats should be no more than $160, the committee decided. Previously there had been no limit on their cost.

The structure Itself must be no larger than fifteen by twelve feet with figures not to exceed seven feet in height.

People may be incorporated in- t o the floats, as was not done in t h e past few years. Mechanical devices have been eliminated to make it possible for more students to participate.

Floats need not consist solely of flowers, as before; crepe paper may be draped around the de- sired shape of the float.

Delta Sigma Phi Elects Officers

At a recent meeting, t h e following men were elected officers of Delta Sigma Bhi f r a t e r n i t y :

Theodore Hall of Pine City was elected president. A junior at the College of Ceramics, Hall is a member of the St. Pat's Board.

H e was also IFC representative for Delta Sig this year.

Elected vice-president was Alex Posluszny of Lafayette Hills, Pa.

Posluszny is a junior majoring in political science. He has served as photography editor of the Fiat Lux a n d Kanakadea this year.

J a m e s Varner of DuBois, Pa.

was chosen secretary. Verner is a sophomore and a student at the College of Ceramics. This year he has been a counselor in North Hall men's dormitory.

T h e new t r e a s u r e r to Harry Skinner of Tonawanda. Skinner is a student at the College of Ceramics and a member of the 8 t . Pat's Board.

Elected sergeant-at-arms was Jack Cappola of Rftyetteville.

Dr. H. O. Burdick, former head of the biology department, was praised as "one of our truly dedi- cated college professors" when he spoke Feb. 13 as recipient of the S. R. Scholes Lectureship for (recognition of scientific excel- lence.

The tribute came from Dr. S.

R. Scholes, former professor of glass technology, who also cred- ited to Dr. Burdick "more pro- ductive research than is usual f o r any science professor, hard working as they are in a liberal a r t s college."

A block of optical glass suitably inscribed a s a momento of the occasion was presented to Dr.

Burdick by Dr. Winfield Ran- dolph, professor of chemistry at t h e Ag-Tech and president of the Alfred Sigma Xi Club which es- tablished the lectureship honor- ing Djp. Scholes.

Dr. Burdick described some ex- periments in t h e physiology of t

reproduction in mice. During 31 years on the faculty h e had con- ducted extensive research in the special field with the help of more than 100 students. More t h a n 30 scientific reports were published on t h e i r findings and 15 former students were co- authors.

The birth control methods they discovered actually worked by preventing embryo development.

Dr. Burdick said, and for that reason "raise serious ethical problems."

The oral pill now widely used to prevent ovulation probably is the answer to birth control throughout the world, h e said.

But he added that much education is needed before it can be applied on a wholesale scale.

Through f u r t h e r extensive research it may become possible to

Dr. H. O. B u r d i c k

change the genetic constitution of the egg by chemical treatment and regulate characteristics of a species, Dr. Burdick added. But he noted it would be practicable only & r . .lower animals because man has not evidenced sufficient wisdom to exercise such control over his own kind.

Frisch's Play, The Firebugs/

Next Footlight Club Production

Rev. Kinzie Lead

Series of Discussions

(Max Frisch's The Firebugs will be presented by the Footlight Club March 13 and 14 as one of the Cultural Programs Council events.

The cast, selected last week, is currently conducting rehearsals.

The Firebugs, translated by Mo- decai Gorelik and presented off Broadway in 1963, is one of Max Frisch's most provocative and bril-

liant plays. Whether the play is Tegarded as an hilarious, almost slapstick farce of as a satirical attack gainst complacency depends

on the point of view one brings to it. Using: dramatic techniques a s old as allegory and as new as, The Theatre of the Absurd, Frisch reveals the actions and attitudes of people confronted with a pow- • erful and ruthless enemy..

The plot ..concerns George Bie- darman, a cautious businessman, who discovers that the two men who have entered his home un- invited are the arsonists who have already burned down much of the town. He and his simple- minded wife, concerned only with eaving themselves and their home, lodge them, feed them with a sumptuous diner, and provide them with all the matches they can possibly use—all of which serves only to postpone- the inevi- table holocaust.

C. D. Smith, professor of speech and dramatics, is directing The Firebugs, and Ronald Brown, associate professor of speech and dramatics, will direct the technical aspect of the show. Marion Morris functions as assistant director and James Morgan will be doing set designs. The cast includes Wil- liam Vanech, William Mulig, Le- on Pokolk, James Morgan, Deanna Whitty, John Denton, Madeline Gallo, John Moscowitz, Sandra Manning, Lawrence Adlerstein and Anselm Parlatore.

The Swiss playwright, Max Frisch, is regarded as one of Europe's most important and ori- ginal writers. His work, though,

N A S A Awards Ph D Fellowships

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has awarded the College of Ceramics two fellowships for graduate students whose doctoral studies will be concerned with materials which may be useful in space veihicles.

Dean John F. McMahon said the NASA Fellowships are awarded to Institutions which are carrying on research of interest to the agency. They will be awarded in t u r n to students studying for t h e Ph. D. in ceramics.

The fellowships starting next September will provide each recipient with 12,000, plus an allowance for dependants. Dean Mc- Mahon said it is expected that both recipients will be -eligible for support for three years. -

has recently come to be known in the United States. The Chinese Wall and Andorra are bis other two well-known plays. The latter was a hit in Europe and is sched-

uled for a Broadway production.

Students interested in helping in phases of production (cos- tumes, make-up, props, etc.) should see Professor Brown.

A series of discussions based on John Robinson's book, "Honest to God," will be held in the Parent's Lounge of the Campus Center every other Tuesday at 11 a.m. The talks will be given by Rev. Charles Kinzie.

Rev. Kinzie has been in Alfred since Oct. f . Before that, the was a minister in East Aurora at the First Presbyterian Church.

: The reason for these discussions, said Rev. Kinzie, is that

most students have difficulty grasping Christian theology, and something is needed to reformu- l a t e tfhe meaning of religious

faith- T h e purpose of the talks, he added, is to give the oppor- t u n i t y for intelligent discussion

and conversation on these mat- t e r s . This is being tried as àix

experiment:

In- 'Honest to*- God", Robinson asks for a réévaluation of Chris- tian theology.. Robinson draws mainly on tfhe ideas of three men: Dietrich. Bonhoeffer, Ru- dolph Bultman, and Paul Tillich.

•.Thjeir views form the -background for the writings of the author.

He draws implications of the re- lation of these men to the twenti- eth century.

The schedule for the lectures is

as follows: :

Feb. 18—"Reluctant Revolution"

Mar. 3—"The Passing of Myth and Religion".

Mar. 17—"The Style of Modern Man".

April 14—"A Depth at the Center of Life".

April 28—"A Style ,of Life".

May 12—"Pressing On".

College of Ceramics Gets New Electron Microscope

G. T. McClellan Addresses ACS;

Demonstrates Glass Developments

One of the world's most power- ful electron microscopes, the Hi- tachi 11a, is being installed in a research laboratory at the Col- lege of Ceramics.

The $37,000 electron microscope is the newest model of a series produced by Hitachi, Ltd., the largest industrial corporation in Japan. The instrument is capa- ble of distinguishing particles only seven angstroms (28 bil- lionths of an inch) apart. Photo- graphs taken by similar instru- ments show what appears to be the alignment of atoms in thin gold sheets.

Dr. Herbert F. Kay, visiting professor of physios, will direct initial research utilizing the new microscope. He said that the instrument will be used for solid state research, particularly on ceramics and other high-temper- ature structural materials. It is possible to heat materials being studied to 1800 degrees Fahren- heit or cool them to nearly 250 degrees below zero. Dr! Kay will be assisted in the research oper- ations by Clifford Randall, electron microscope technician.

At. the present time, however,

Dr. Kay is supervising comple- tion of the installation of the microscope, leading to acceptance tests. The equipment is located in the new graduate research laboratory building where the thick, reinforced concrete floor eliminates virtually all vibration.

Partitions have been erected to make a room wihich will be as dust-free as possible and totally dark.

Sunglasses that become darker in sunlight and clear Inside?—

A glass hammer to drive steel nails and glass nails driven by a conventional steel hammer?

These are among the new developments in glass that were demonstrated by G. T. McClellan of Corning Glass Works at the regular meeting of the Alfred Stu- dent Branch of the American Ce- ramic Society last Wednesday evening.

McClellan started his lecture with a series of slides illustrat- ing the current research of Corn- ing Glass Center a t Corning. Fol-

lowing this, McClellan presented an extensive series of demonstra- tions of the properties of new glass materials. These included the properties of infra-red filter glass which was developed at Corning Glass by Dr. C. H. Greene, professor of glass technology at the College of Ceramics; tin-oxide coated static shielding glass; and an elastic ion-exchnge glass.

Highlight of the demonstration was Coming's new photochrome glass, which turns gray when ex- posed to ultraviolet rays. One future use of this would be in self- darkening sunglasses which could be used indoors also as conventional glasses.

FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1964

E d i t o r i a l . . .

Discipline Committee

The recent dismissal of a student from the University and his subsequent complaint in a letter to this paper have brought to atfó&üoB% s£rÍo¿s administrative fault, úe,.

v

J;h.e..student's case was not brought before the discipline committee. Instead, a rather unclear process of administrative action was taken.

Here at Alfred'University we are supposed to have a dis- cipline committee composed of administrators, faculty mem- bers, and four students. This latter group had its representa- tion increased by two last semester, and the administration seemed proud of the increased trust it was placing in the in- tegrity of students. Normally, this would seem an ideal situa- tion; a disciplinary system to guarantee any student a fair consideration of his case and to prevent claims of wrong de- cisions by the ,University. i '

This is not

1

the case, however, because the University re- serves the right to dismiss any student whose conduct it con- siders undesirable. Jíó definite criteria exist to determine when the discipline committee should consider a case and when it should not, a fact which threatens to make the existence of the eommittee pointless. Dismissal without reference to the com- mittee make it little more than an administrative show-piece.

We believe the' administration should therefore implement the Student Senate's proposal that all cases involving the dis- missal of a student be brought before the discipline commit- tee. The proposal should receive more than a preemptory

"thank you fo» your interest" from the administration. And since faculty members also sit on this committee, it would be pertinent for that group to re-examine the committee's current value.

It would be nice if the administration could reach a de- cision on this p:rohlep^s soon as possible; delay is inexcusable.

Respect for Student Ideas?

This brings us to the question of the administrative de- cision making process, a process which Senate President Tom Syracuse has seen fit to question this week.

While the administration constantly assures students that their proposals receive careful consideration, the continual de- lay

in reaching final decisions gives the impression that care- ful consideration, is all anything receives. Some administrators show a sincere interest, some a condescening let-me-explain it- to-you attitude, but too often the final result is the same:

nothing.

We agree with the opinions expressed by Syracuse in to- day's paper. We think it should not take forever to decide about the social uses of Ade Hall, about a central campus bulletin board, apxj about numerous other proposals.

Could it be possible that the administration avoids decis- ions on many issues, hbping to start from the beginning each time a new group of student officers is elected? This is cer- tainly the impression being given now.

Some menders

^;

of the¡ educational community (we will not call them educators) believe that students should pay their bills, go to classes^ keep quiet, receive their diploma, and leave. Others, howeverf believe that part of the educational process is awareness and interest for the world around them.

This is the reason for the existence of student government, student publications, and of any other student club, no matter how large or small. '

|v,i

We hope that at Alfred, the first theory does not prevail.

Question: What is

^Ur^jMibn ttitit im- portance of a new in- firmary?

Jonathan A tiler, Jr., Engineering

"Tbe idea of a new infirmary is a foolish one if It is to be nun on the same princi p i e s a s the old one. If If ~is intended to enlarge t h e facilities and run it more on the basis of a small hospital, it would then be a n important addition. I don't feel, however, t h a t a n infirmary Is a s important aa some obher proposed additions."

Eric Nemlroff, J r . Liberal Art«

"I don't think t h a t a n e w In- f i r m a r y Is at all important; I n I . J»ct, it-would be

'a waste of mo- K fl^jj | d o n t see ,, that the services now dispensed would be greatly improved by new facilities."

Eileen Landiry, Jr., Liebral Arts

"As the present building is run down a n d lacking in pro- f e s s i o n a l appearance, a n e w infirmary would receive m o r e t r u s t f r o m t h e students. Of course tihe attitude of the professional ¡help toward t h e students is also important in promoting trust.

Peter Spar, Fr., Liberal Arts

"A new in- f i r m a r y is a good idea, a s the p r e s e n t one is inadeq u a t e , for the needs of H ^ J ^ t M J H H B t l l e s t u d e n t s . There are enough pills but not enough qualified people dispens- ing them. A more modern building is in order as the present one doesn't present a profession al appearance. This and the personnel cause the students to lack faith in it."

Faye Guthrie, Sr., Liberal Arts

"People who a r e sick don't w a n t to stay in t h e old infirmary. I' think tihat a n e w o i l e w o u l d change this, and would also >be more ef- ficient and easier to work in."

Alfredic Schizophrenia

— by Steve Skeates—*..

(adapted from Thorpe and Katz' "The- Modern Conception of Schizophreria"),. some of which every Alfredic siiffere pos- sesses. If you have three or less of these, you have only a slight ease of Alfredic Schizophrenia. If you possess five or more, then you have an acute case (commonly known as English majoring).

1) Neglect in neatness and dress. Like you wear an in- side-out sweatshirt and dirty dungarees.

2) Disorganized patterns of thinking. Like on an essay uestion you pput down everything you know about the sub- ject, whether it answers the question or not.

3) Seclusiveness. Like you tell your roommate to turn off his radio and leave so that you can study.

4) Apathy. Like you never really care enough to find out the subtle differences between Student Senate and APO.

5) Bizarre actions. Don't miss my future column on fra- ternity parties.

6) Disorganized patterns of speech. Like you clutch when the prof asks you a question, and you blurt out something ir- relevant and incoherent ("word salad").

7) Delusive thinking. Like you think you're really with it, because you wear sunglasses at night.

• • • • •

In short, none of us are perfect. This is why I strongly disagree with those critics who have said that "David and Lisa," great as it was, afforded the viewer little opportunity to identify. It is as easy for us to identify with David and Lisa as it is to do so with the"perfect" heroes and heroines of the average American film. The latter extends our assets out of proportion. It was refreshing to see, for a change, a film which instead was an extension of our faults.

. The sickness of these two psychotics evolved from fears which all of us, at one time or another, have possessed • Lisa's, from the fear of growing up and being on one's own; David's, from the fear of being hurt by others, a fear of the irrational, unpredictable and "filthy" world in which we live. Therefore it isn't hard to find portions of ourselves within these charac- ters.

The film opened with the major crisis, the gaining of the psychoses, already in the past. We were not even given the complete situations through which this occurred. (There was virtually no exposition concerning Lisa's state.) But this does not matter. Their adaptation to their problems provided enough excellent drama. In fact, it,was the concentration on the adap- tation, rather than on the psychoses themselves, which made this a love story. It was through David, not John, that Lisa realized that she was a girl. It was through David that she learned not to rhyme. And, David was "touched" by Lisa, way before she took his hand.

As the preview said, this was a different love story—dif- ferent from most Hollywood love stories, for this one dealt with love.

?fH; «>.'^Howard'Paster, -

This week I will make an effort to return from last week's foray into the world ofvhtimor. My lack ofjsuctefcss • was iio doubt reassuring to Steve Skeates and until I can rebuild my confidence I will leave Fiat Lux humor to Steve, who I sug- guest be the first Fiat comedy editor.

Building priority is a much talked about University con- sideration. There- are conflicting stories about the existence of a "building priority list." But it is quite true that President Drake has recently polled many students along with the fac- ulty oil

¹

file important question of what should be the next project bliilt at Alfred.

Tbte' buildings needed include an infirmary, a gymnasium, and a new president's home. Also needed is a classroom and laboratory building as well as a presentable and equipped auditorium. The value of all these building is undeniable, but relative importance is open to debate.

A new infirmary ha% many merits. Aecording to air re- ports, our present facilities are weak and the number of beds too small. This project is three years past due, maialy because the infirmary is to be built from parents' donations. The lack of parental support should not be an excuse for postponing tjie building of a new infirmary. A new approach to fund- raising is obviously necessary, and those parents that have not bothered to donate will not likely be insulted.

A home for the president and a permanent gymnasium are both desirable but their need should be satisfied after the other projects are completed.

Too often performers are disappointed by the facilities in Alumni Hall and every former civilisation student will at- test to the discomfort of the seats. We cannot hope to have large, attentive audiences to the fine schedule of Cultural Program Council events until we have the proper facilities.

The biology and psychology department« are longing for the day when they will have the counterpart to Myers Hall;

and rightfully so. This building, to provide the necessary equip- ment to let these two departments do their best work, is the building most needed at Alfred.

After the classroom and laboratory building, in order, the University should give its attention to: an infirmary, an auditorium, a gymnasium and the home for the president.

There is a new game popular at Alfred University. This game isn't played on the basketball court, football field or the baseball diamond; nor are the students the chief partici- pants. This game, naive students beware, is played by the faculty and the administration, and goes by the sincure, "Cre- ate the Phantom Course."

The following cpuirses are not given at Alfred University:

Etymology, Classical Mythology, Greek Literature, Latin Lit- erature, Horace, Pliny's Letters, Suetonius, Ppjjtical Parses and Practical Politics, Constitutional Law, Labor Relations and Personnel, History of Economic Thought, Selling and Ad- vertising, Public Finance, Economic History of the U.S., the Community and its Cross Pressures, Chemistry of the Colloidal State, Elementary Spectroscopy, Introduction to Logic, Phil- osophy of Science, Problems in Philosophical Analysis, Inter- mediate Logic, Modern Philosophy, Aesthetics, Philosophy and Existentialism. However, all these courses, somehow, find their way into the Alfred University catalogue.

This is not to say that this problem lies only in the art of deception. Rather, it strikes at a fundamental taproot—the inability of an understaffed faculty to teach as many courses as they would like to. This has gone so far as to create an Alfred educational phenomenon—one man departments. We sympathize completely with these distraught and harried su- permen, yet to paraphrase Nikolai Lenin, "Something must be done."

New dorms have gone up, someday a new gym and a new auditorium will be built; classrooms aren't very much help without a sounder curriculum, but we do hope that Alfred will someday be able to cope with the ever growing intel- lectual climate—for the Alfred student deserves not to be deceived, but to -be taught.

Letter-Worns- ^ % - • About Banners

A recent letter from " the Dis- trict Engineer of «he 6th Dis- trict of the New York State De- partment of Public Works indi- cates that it is illegal to erect signs, banners and decorations' across or within the right of way of State highways. Such action is a violation of Section 52 of the Highway Law.

W. J. Dennis, district engineer hays, "While we recognize the interest of localities or local or-

ganizations in the erection of banners, etc., . . . our experience has indicated these constitute a potential hazard. Primarily,- they are a distraction which, as stud-

ies have proven, are a signifi- cant factor in rear-end collisions.

Such devices also can confuse a motorist's view of traffic Signals f and interfere with his perception of warning or destination signs.

Finally, there is the possibility that decorations over the highway may be torn from their moorings by high winds or heavy precipi- tation, thereby endangering both motorists and pedestrians.

In compliance with the law, and in the interests of highway safety and public safety in general, the erection of signs or other devices over the State highways is not permitted."

All of North Main Street from the village line north of the Ag- Tech greenhouse to the inter- section of University Place is clas- sified as state highway.

Frechette Named To Royal Society

Dr. Van Derek Frechette, professor of ceramic technology at the College of Ceramics, has been elected to membership in the Royal Society of Arts and Sci- ences of Sweden.

The Society was founded by King Gustai III of Sweden in 1778 and still holds its annual meeting Jan. 34, the founder's birthday. Members in Sweden bold a regular monthly meeting.

Campus Comedy

In preparation for a quiz at the U. S. Naval Academy, my roommate, who was having trouble with electrical formulas, was ad- vised by a classmate to memorize just one Important equation from which others could be derived.

The key to memorizing it was the Jingle: "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, power equals I2R."

When the »results of t h e test were posted, he could not believe his failing grade. He had solved each problem with the magic for- mula : "Little star up te the sky, power equals R2I . . . "

"Tell me," he cried, "are you a girl ofexpensive tastes?"

"No, hey," she cried. "1 am a girl of simple tastes." • HO

"Good," he cried, "for my cruel father sends me an allowance barely large enough to support life."

"Money does not matter to me," she cried. "My tastes are simple; my wants are few. Just take me riding in a long, new, yellow convertible and I am content."

"Goodbye," he cried, and ran away as fast as his little

• stumpy legs would carry him,- for he had hb yellow convertible, nor the money to buy one, nor the means to get the money—

short of picking up his stingy father by the ankles and shak- ing him till his wallet fell out.

He knew he must forget this girl, but lying on his pallet at the dormitory, whimpering and moaning, he knew he could not.

At last an idea came to him: though he did not have the money to buy a convertible, perhaps he had enough to rent one!

Hope reborn, he rushed on his little stumpy legs (curious to tell, he was six feet tall, but all his life he suffered from little stumpy legs) he rushed, I say, to an automobile rental company and rented a yellow convertible for $10 down plus ten cents a mile. Then, with many a laugh and cheer, he drove away to pick up the girl.

"Oh, bully!" she cried when she saw the car. "This suits my simple tastes to a 'T.' Come, let us speed over rolling highroads and through bosky dells."

Away they drove. All that day and night tkey drove and finally, tired but happj^, they parked high on a wind-swept hill.

"Yum, yum," she said.

"But, all the same, there is a big difference between Marlboros and me, because I do not have pjv.fjgicacious white Selectrate filter."

He looked. It was true. "Eureka!" he cried.. "That solves my problem. I will drive home in reverse. Then no more miles will register on the speedometer and I will haveeoough money to pay!"

You Learn to Be Happy' Says SNANYS Was Here . . .

Dr. Murray Banks at Lecture

by Joan Diamond

Dr. Banks elaborated on the danger of smoking at an informal discussion following his Alumni Hall talk.

"You learn to be happy," said Dr. Murray Banks during his lecture entitled "Just in Case You Think You're Normal," last Thursday night. He proceeded to give his audience a les- son to prove his point. /

Dr. Banks' style was hilarious, jj^. '';-? • but his meaning was serious. All

Life's Pressures

A sobering fact given by- the ' - ' f l S w W ^ ^ ^ H s ^ ^ H ^ K J J B U f c . lecturer was that the average J flir — ' i r J ^ ^ K ^ T f

age of people in mental institu-

tions is 21. This occurs because M - " j l ^ ^ r f S S

the young people; of- our, society . • — are under extreme pressure

academic, business and social life.

Alfred student nurses Barbara Connolly (left) and Betsy Peass seem a bit confused as they study plans for SNANYS mock convention. -

Dr. Murray Banks Those who are unstable retreat from life early. Everyone con- nects women with nervous break- downs, said Dr. Banks, but men have them more often. He said that men are under pressure to succeed throughout their entire lives while pressure on women centers mainly around getting married and ceases as soon as they wed.

People . inay ! earn to hide from life's responsibilities by retreat- ing iato iJlaess. Dr. Banks said

"never give your children extra toys, love,;. . . when they're sick"

because this; teaches them to become ill whenever faced with a problem or desiring unearned attention.

Smoking is one. of .the lecturer's pet peeves and he delivered a little 'speech on its evils to health both mentaj. and physical: He stat-

ed that peopl^ learn to smoke through a desire' Vp relieve ¡tension and become addicted to it until they become tense without- a cigarette.: , . .

Ad jus.tnien.t. P.oipts

Dr. Bank^/jopclu^d his speech with the nine attributes he con- siders essential for a well-adjusted person:

1. Know how to'ihkke the most of what ymr have. -Those who are dissatisfied become • n e u r o t i c throughfrustr&tioia..-

2. Know how to stay forever young. This does not mean through plastic surgery and cos- metics bu);.,through your attitude on life..

3. Set up • new and interesting goals in your life. Once you have accomplished something, look for another goal or you will become unhappy in your idleness.

4. Live eacn day of your life as if it were your last. Then you'll not have regrets over wasted time and opportunities. .

5. Happiness depends on your attitude towards what life does to you. Don't build up an inferiori- ty complex or let tragedies des- troy your entire life.

6. Learn how to live with yourself. Many people expect marriage to be a cure-all, but unless the partners know and like them-

;. selves, they will not get along with each other.

7. Never be a perfectionist. Be- lieve in yourself and what you do, but do not try to please everyone. It's impossible.

8. The most important characteristic of all according to Dr.

Bnks is to learn to laugh at life.

Only humans can laugh and laugh- ter relieves tensions, even when it is directed at your own fail- ures.

9. Have an educated heart.

Bring happiness into someone else's life and you'll be happier.

This is the main secret of a hap-

Worting at a resort in Germany.

...Praise Necessary Dr. Banks emphasized that everyone: ; needs praise, especially from the ones they love. This praise doesn't help unless it is 'heard, so h e urges everyone to praise others to help make them well-adjusted, and perhaps they will return the aid.

Background

Dr. Banks attended New York and Columbia Universities and did his c l i n i c a l psychpathological study at Bellevue Hospital in New York City. He was visiting professor of psychology at Fair- leilgh Dickenson University, full professor of psychology at Long Island University and at Pace Col- lege where he headed the psychology department for over five years. He has also lectured and taught various subjects at many other universities. Now, he lectures on the importance of happiness all over the country and is professor of psychology at th ,New York Institute of Technology.

Area XI of the Student Nurses Association of New York State (SNANYS) held its annual mock convention at Alfred last Tuesday.

Nurses from St. James Hospital in Hornell (above) and other nursing schools in western New York attended to nominate candidates for next year's SNANYS officers. Two Alfred girls are candidates for office;
