ALFRED WRESTS VICTORY FROMJHIEL
Bests Rivals In Great 6-0 Contest
KING RETURNS TO GAME
It was a great game, a great game to win and it would have been a hard one to lose. Alfred didn't out-play Thlel, but they out-fought them; and it was a bitter battle from start to finish. The teams were very evenly.
matched, although the Thiel men out- weighed the purple and gold to some extent.
To the beginning of the third quarter it looked like a tie game, neither team seemed able to penetrate the other's defense, but when Walt King, hero, of many Alfred gridiron vic- tories snatched a blocked punt and raced down the field for~a touchdown, Alfred supporters knew that the game!
was won. It was a wonderful victory for the team and a great return to the game for Quarterback King. King has been out afternoons in citizen's clothing, acting as an. assistant to Coach Sweetland. Pew people thought he would again don football togs to grace the chalk marks of the gridiron.
But Walt was there to win the game for Alfred.
Patriotic Rally
Wednesday Night
Frank Gibbons of Buffalo To Deliver Address In Firemens Hall
" Our Government has authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to float a Second Liberty Loan. This means that the people of the United States are called upon to support President Wilson and Congress by lending money to their Government to carry on the war.
Our unprecedented expenditures for the physical, mental, and moral well- being of the soldiers will be historic.
They testify to the personal attitude of a Democracy toward those who risk their lives for Country and Humanity.
With an ever-growing belief in the righteousness of the cause for which America is in the war, the people stand ready to help. They must, however, do their part intelligently as well as patriotically. The Secretary of the Treasury will heed the generous assis- tance of thousands in disseminating reliable information throughout the villages, towns, and cities—information as to the security of Liberty Loan Bonds and the urgent need for hearty, speedy subscriptions to the Loan.
One thing necessary to make the Loan a success is the realization by all people that America is fighting in self- defense, and in defense of the best form of government the world has yet seen—government by the people."
For that reason, on Wednesday even- ing, the seventeenth, Frank Gibbons of Buffalo will talk to Alfred inhabi- tants and Alfred students about the second Liberty Loan. The band will be there, and the Glee Club.
But there are more things to be con- sidered than the stellar work of King, l'or there isn't another coach in the East thut could put the life and i'igbt into his men as does Coach Sweet'and.
It does not happen to be size, weight and ability that counts from Sweet- land's way of thinking. It is the fight that each individual man possesses, and the spirit with which he goes in- to the game.
A word might be spoken for every man that participated in Friday's game, but the work of one armed John Clark at guard for Alfred was enough to inspire anyone. Inex- perienced and with the use of but a single arm, this man played a wonder- ful game in his position. Decker did well too, and Frank Lobaugh at left end, although severely injured in the early part of the game, stuck to his post like a man and demonstrated a calibre of sand not a little to be com- mended. Capt. Witter, McConnell, Hagar, Kane, Crawford, Moyer, Moh- ney and R. Witter all did excellent work, and the victory came to those who deserved it.
Next Friday the game is with the Grove City college team and is to be played on the Alfred field. It will prob- ably be one of the hardest games of the year since the Grove City team is one of the strongest minor college teams in Pennsylvania.

FIAT ACCEPTS NEW RESPONSIBILITY
One couldn't paint this year's foot- ball scores immediately over those of last year. That's the reason why very early on one morning of last week members of the Fiat staff painted a new dark background on the score board. The board was a light blue last year; this year it is a very deep purple so that the yellow letters can be distinguished more easily from Main street. The painters are chang- ing a little the order of lettering. The names of the teams are printed more comfortably in day light. After the game, all that remains to be done is the painting of the score.
STUDENTS CELE- BRATE VICTORY
Build Huge Fire—Score Painted Clamorous and crazy? They had a right to be, on the campus hill Friday night, the yelling mob of students.
They roasted in front; the fire was very big and very hot. They froze behind because the snow was very insistent and very cold. But they were very happy; Reid kept them say- ing so, out loud too. They yelled for Alfred and they yelled for Thiel, they howled over the whole team and then they howled over each player separate- ly. They would have howled, glorious- ly happy, over anything. They were celebrating the Thiel victory. By and by the fire began to wane. Were the students satisfied? In the wet snow they surged around the score board to see the score painted and they counted that score over and over in the most beautifully idiotic fashion;
their cups of happiness slopped clean over.
And after all this they loitered to shout a sweet farewell to Thiel.
KANAKADEA STIRS
Everyone knows that Axford is out for stunt pictures. Axford says that he doesn't expect to take all of them himself, though, he isn't that versatile.
So everybody is invited to lend the use of his or her college snapshots. Just hand them to Mr. Axford or Miss Swal- low, or Miss Wilson. They are going to give a whole Kanakadea free to the owner of the finest collection of snap shots loaned the Year Book Manage- ment.
The big picture man from Broadway will be here any day now, too. And the editor of the book is out for write- ups. They must all be in, she says, by the middle of November.
A Kanakadea board meeting is scheduled for Wednesday night at seven o'clock at the Brick. M;FS Wells, the Editor, is very anxious that all the classes elect representatives before that time.
PROF. CLAWSON DEMONSTRATES USE OF CARD CATALOGUE
IN LIBRARY WORK
Prof. Clawson gave a lecture on the card catalogue and its use Thursday afternoon. There were about twenty students present, mostly freshmen.
His talk concerning the Dewey Classi- fication was essentially the same as that which he gave in Assembly two weeks ago, except that he used the cards themselves to aid in his explan- ation. All the cards are marked to show the location of those books which are in any of the sixteen departments on the Campus and also those books which are on the main floor of the Library. Cards for books in the base- ment are not marked Red type gives the titles and subjects. Green cards are always biographical works.
The Librarian explained the use of the "Readers Guide," which takes the place of " Poole's Index."
There will be another lecture soon on "Library ToolsV It is to cover the use of dictionaries,'encyclopedias, book indexes, etc.
SARA E. SNELL ADDRESSES ASSOCIATIONS
Alfred Listens To Address On Student Volunteer Movement
On Monday evening, October the eighth, Miss Sara E. Snell, identified with the Student Volunteer movement, addressed the Christian Associations on "Student Movements" of the Bast and West.
"How large is your mind?" Miss Snell asked, adding a moment later that one must think now in interna- tional world-wide terms; she spoke of the work of the Student Volunteer.
The movement, she said, had its origin thirty-one years ago in a conference of students. It is not a part of the Y. M. or Y. W associations, although it works with them. Its purpose is fourfold; to interest students info-reign work; to help candidates for the ser- vice; to propagate an accurate know- ledge of the work; and to tell what it really is. Few understand that the work differs but little from that in our own country. The people who are needed are professional people of all
sorts. Of course not every one can be a student volunteer missionary. A master's degree is required always, and usually a doctor's degree as well.
Only one of high courage and per- severance attempts the rigorous train- ing required.
In the East the movement is the same. But the students who volun- teer there, being natives, have the added burden of social customs and usages to bear. But the whole Orient is alive to its need, not so much need of truth as power to act the truth, as the evangelistic services of Mott and Eddy held a few years ago, would in- dicate.
The final message of the S. V. M. to students is then to ask time to an understanding of the need, their fi- nancial support, their prayer, and, if possible, themselves.
The local S. V. M. conference this year is to be held at Elmira.
PROF. BENNEHOFF LECTURES ON ART
Curator of Museum Exhibits Slides of Washington's Art Treasures Miss Ethel Smith and Mr. Clifford
Potter Address Student Body
On last Wednesday morning, Pro- fessor James D. Bennehoff offered to an appreciative audience, a travelogue lecture about the city of Washington.
His enthusiasm gathered chiefly about the Congressional Library, and the Corcoran Art Gallery. Over these the lecturer lingered, pointing out with careful criticism the loveliness of many of the gems they shelter.
Following the assembly lecture, Mr Potter, president of the Student Sen- ate, and Miss Ethel Smith-, president of the College Women's Organization, according to custom, spoke to the gathered students on Alfred's student self government. Both spoke very simply of the faith Alfred feels in its members to govern themselves, and of the clear ideals for which Alfred students are expected to strive. "Every girl should be a 'booster' of self-gov- ernment ideals. The efficiency of our organization depends on the co- operation of every girl in the organ- ization," said Miss Smith. And Mr.
Potter echoed the same idea when he j said "We ask each member of the freshman class to do his best to co- operate with the rest of the student body to help make this another suc- cessful year of democratic, student government."
U. S. ENLISTS AID OF FIAT From the United States Civil Ser- vice Commission at Washington comes a request to publish a notice of the war need of the Government for stenographers and typewriters:
"The United States Government is in urgent need of thousands of type- writer operators and stenographers and typewriters. All who pass ex- aminations for the departments and offices at Washington, D. C, are as- sured of certification for appointment.
It is the manifest duty of citizens with this special knowledge to use it a t this time where it will be of most value to the Government. Women es- pecially are urged to undertake this office work. Those who have not the required training are encouraged to undergo instruction at once.
Examinations for the Departmental Service, for both men and women, are held every Tuesday, in 450 of the prin- cipal cities of the United States, and applications'may be filed With the Com- mission at Washington, D. C, at any time.
The entrance salary ranges from
$1,000 to $1,200 a year. Advance- ment of capable employees to higher salaries is reasonably rapid.
Applicants must have reached their eighteenth birthday on the date of the examination."
SENATE RULING
When either a freshman or a sopho- more class eats as it should, the eats it intends to eat where it intends to eat them, during banquet season, the Student Senate awards it a victory.
When both classes fulfill the require- ments, both classes are considered vic- tors. Both classes are victorious this year; the Senate has ruled it so.
COUNTRY LIFE CLUB The first weekly meeting of the Country Life Club was held in Agri- cultural Hall last Thursday evening for the purpose of electing officers for the succeeding three months. There was no program, so nominations were called for at once. The following offi- cers were elected:
President, Fenn C. Wheeler Vice President, Harriet Boyd Secretary, Marian Howe Treasurer, Fred M. Bartlett
After the election of officers the Club voted to accept an invitation from the College to attend a Hallowe'en
party to be held in Academy Hall.

On Sunday evening at the Young Men's Christian Association, Dean Main spoke to the members on the rela- tion of the individual to the group, on the importance of the single act. Trac- ing the growth of the Hebrew Nation first, he used it as an illustration of the manner of society's growth, em- phasizing the right of change but hold- ing out the fact that the need of the world for clean, educated young men, mobilized for righteousness, remains always unchanged.
SOCIETY
N. Y. S. A. STUDENTS AND FAC- ULTY ENTERTAINED BY
ALFRED GRANGE 1097 The Grange Hall was crowded to capacity on last Wednesday evening by the students and faculty of the Agricultural School. The Grangers had invited them there to entertain them, and they did. Everyone sang at first; patriotic songs and others too.
Mrs. Wright and Mr. E. E. Poole sang afterwards individually, and Miss Wood gave a reading. The address was by Director Wright, who outlined th>
objects and benefits of the Grange.
He expressed his approval of the in- terest shown by the students; empha- sizing the fact that the mutual co- operation of the Grange with the school is most worth while to both.
Refreshments were served in the Hall dining rooms, and when the rugs were done away with, the guests made merry at dancing and a social good time until a late hour.
THE LAST DRAFT
Last Wednesday night the Seniors and Sophomores, drafted, marched to camp for examination. The camp was located in Stillman's Glen at a safe distance from invasion. There Mr.
Gaiss conducted the proceedings, test- ing each one for sufficient mentality and for physical endurance. Great was the consternation when each in turn was rejected. The primary reason given was underweight, so the appli- cant was taken to the mess-hall and given ol 1 fasoioned weiners, rolls, doughnuts and coffee. Later, the entire company was marched back to town and given honorable discharge.

At the close of the services, Sunday, Prof. Klinck, treasurer for the Sunday church goers, offered a tentative bud- get for their consideration. The bud- get, as it was finally adopted, plans to raise about $350, $50 of which is to come from the Sunday School. It is planned to give $100 for foreign relief, and $75 for helping the Y. M. C. A.
and the Community Club, establish a recreation room for boys and young men in Alfred.
The church lacks a large enough choir. Students are invited to help the spirit of the services by aiding in the organization of a completer one.
There is a practice every Wednesday evening at seven o'clock in the Gothic.

GLEE CLUB MEETS TONIGHT AT SEVEN
Well, they've begun. Onca again the "mellifluous" songsters have started some close harmony. Last Tuesday evening about twenty men gathered themselves together in Ken- yon and, under the able coaching of Prof. Wingate, sang some of the old Glee Club numbers. From the looks of things, or rather from the sound of things, the material is of the best.
But twenty seems rather a small num- ber when there should be forty men from which to pick the lucky sixteen, j Remember all those trips the Club had I last year? Well, they are going to j have just as many this year and just as many more as they have time for.
Tonight at seven the second re- hearsal will be held in Kenyon Hall j and Prof. Wingate is looking for those j forty men.
NOW FOR THE COMMUNITY CHORUS
The first meeting is on Monday, Oc- tober fifteenth a t 8:00 P. M. in Kenyon Memorial Hall. I t will probably not be so large as that of last year, but there should be a t least fifty voices.
The chorus will produce either an Oratorio or an Operetta; that is to be decided on Monday night. Practice is

EDITORIALS
We imagine there could b_e a question
\vith but one side; possibly we always will have to imagine it. But the Fiat j wonders whether the question of Fri- day night celebrations may not be Unbiased enough for discussion. The Fiat does not champion a noisy fracas that commencing Friday evening at the service hour disturbs seriously the minds of worshippers gathered in the church. It is of the earlier celebration
which, coming before the service, breaks only with the community's standard of propriety, that the paper is tailing.
There was^such a student rejoicing on last Friday evening. It was all over at seven o'clock, but it com- menced after sun down.
Nearly all of the towns people keep the Seventh day, the greater number of students the First. The situation lies in the fact that both are vitally interested in Alfred, and Alfred's foot- ball. It is but a matter of circum- stance that Alfred's team has but five days a week in which to practice, and that on Saturday, which in places away from here is the great day for the game, the team may not play.
These are simply circumstances. But the people of Alfred who are so
•earnestly interested in the School, and the trustees of the school itself must Bee in the acquiescence of the student body to
f,he custom, the acquiescence of a student body made up largely of first day observers, a courtesy and a little gracious width at a real expense to Alfred's football achievement.
Students do not offer this as an ex- cuse for a return of grant. But may Slot a celebration decently noisy and exuberant, one that disturbs only custom and no one practically, be carried on a little into the Friday evening ? It means so much, student enthusiasm. And it wanes so through a whole day iruo the next evening.
All notices to appear in the Fiat Calendar must be in the hands of the editor, Miss Enid White, by Sunday night.
LIBRARY NEWS
Among the 32 cantonments where our soldiers will be stationed there Will be at least 250 deposit stations lor traveling libraries. To properly take care of this work the Y. M. C. A., the K. of C. and similiar organiza- tions will lend their aid. In each camp there will be library head- quarters with books and periodicals affording the soldiers just the kind of service that a first class City public library renders to its constituents.
Under the auspices of the library about
¥60.00 have been raised as Alfred's share toward the million dollar campaign. Nearly fifty books have thus far been brought to the library for the soldiers, the library being the depository for such books and periodi- cals as the people may wish to con- tribute for this purpose. Let your idle books heip the soldiers.

MISS KNIGHT RETURNS TO IRVING COLLEGE
On Friday Miss Knight received a telegram from Irving College at Me- chanicsburg, Pa , where she has been an instructor in the Conservatory of Music for two years, requesting her to return at once to fill vacancy that had unexpectedly occurred in the Conser- vatory staff. The position carries with it a handsome increase in salary over her previous position there, and was so attractive a position that she has re- signed her instructorship in Alfred in order to accept it.
Prof. Wingate will take over the pupils who had registered for piano music with Miss Knight, and for the present at least, will handle the work of both the vocal and piano depart- ments.
RED CROSS
Madame Defarge knitted at the time of the French Revolution that French- men might die; members of the Alfred College Red Cross are knitting now that French babies may live. They are knitting squares of old yarn rem- nants, and when the squares are done they will sew them together to make blankets. These blankets will be sent to France, for the babies there are freezing to death.
Here is an opportunity for conserva- tion. If you have odds and ends of yarn, old sweaters or caps, why not unravel them and give the yarn to the Red Cross? No matter how faded it is, no matter how worn, it can be used.
Take it to Mrs. Davis' house on Wednesday afternoon, and spend a ' little time in helping.
Miss Marjorie Fay is this year's president of the N. Y. S. A. Senate.
The other members are C. G. Smith, D.
J. Khibloe, Lewis Hoover, Willis Ed- wards and Frank Staples.
As for the Athletic Council, the stu- dents elected Donald Alderman and C. G. Smith from the senior class, Ralph Mohney from the Juniors; and Prof. M. S. Klinck represents the faculty.
Alfred Burkert is editor-in-chief of the Agricultural division of the Kan- akadea.
POTTER CRAFTSMEN ELECT GUILD COUNCIL
The Ceramic Guild of Alfred is governed by a Council of five mem- bers elected from, the journeymen..
The council this year is composed of Miss Lucile Robison, Miss Alice Crans- ton, Miss Ruth Canl'ield, Miss Mary Hunting, and Harold Nash. The coun- cil will elect its own president.
One of the first things it will do, is to select a seal by which Alfred ware may be known. The Fiat may have an opportunity to print a repre- sentation of it in a later issue.
CERAMIC ENGINEERS ELECT OFFICERS
At the meeting of the Ceramic So- ciety last Wednesday evening Frank Lobaugh was elected chairman and Harold Reid secretary. The program committee was also elected, Prof.
Binns, Sherwood, Fuller. It was de- cided that the meetings would here- after begin promptly at eight o'clock and close promptly at nine-thirty.
At the next meeting, a week from this evening, some of the upperclass- men will give accounts of their sum- mer's work.
IMPROVEMENT FUND
The Improvement Fund Committee was at work last week in Almond, An- dover and in Bolivar. Mass meetings have not been practicable because of the Liberty Loan activities, and will not be for the next week or two; but friend's of Alfred all over the county are surely and steadily rallying to the help of the College and the fund is making progress. -This is evidenced by the increase from $30,000 to $35,000 in the past; three weeks.

Mass Meeting a Success
Ruth knew the girls were glad to do anything they could to help along;
George was positive no one came out to watch practice. Witter was will- ing to fight for every inch there was in him and Green dreaded walkng on Schunichy's toes. Sweetland wasn't j there Thursday night, but Shunichy was and he spilt a brand new yell in which the ladies star. And Reid was there, he was elected cheer leader.
May be the meeting did lack a little of the sting the next one is going to | have, it wasn't nicely mild. May be the thermal tickles current on the gathered spines weren't deliciously enough acute. May be less acquies- cence and more brutally acrid, un- sciously full flung abandon might have speeded it, it was a good mass meet- ing, just the same.
But this week, why this week there's going to be another mass meeting. It's for Grove City this time. And it's got to vibrate with all the vibration this town can muster. Remember the Thiel game and how closely we won it. Prepare For Grove City.
