The newly formed student publi cations board lield its first meeting last Thursday.

The primary purpose of the meeting was organizational. The board reviewed its purposes, goals, and organization as established by the faculty resolution of last May.

The only specific action the board took came when it voted to have the the publications under its jur- isdiction (Fiat Lux and Kanakadea) submit nominations for future edi- tors-in-chief. The board would then approve or disapprove of any or all the nominees, and the final

selection of the editor would be up to the individual editorial boards of the publications

Althn's firing climaxed weeks of controversy that began when he allowed Carl Mitcham, a philoso- phy student, to publish an article in the Daily that referred to Sen- Dr. William O'Connor, assistant | ator Goldwater as "a fool . . . a to the President and, under the murderer, no better than a common terms of the faculty resolution, criminal."

Spotlights fall on the gubernatorial races in California and1 New York today as voters go to the polls to decide the political futures of national, state and local officials across the nation.

T h e Cuban issue has ceased to he a source of political mileage for most Republicans; if anything, the blockade will help incumbent Democrats identified with the Ken- nedy program, and Republicans who have advocated strong action on Cuba. The net result may be a few Republican Congressional gains, but probably not enough to alter the legislative pattern of the past two years. If the political cli- mate of the counry changes this fall, the change will begin on the state level.

Political experts have placed the greatest importance on this year's gubernatorial races, where Repub- licans are given an even or better chance to capture the state house in the key states of California, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.

Apology Demanded Goldwater demanded an apology and both President Newton and editor Althen did apologize to the Arizona conservative. Goldwater, however, was not satisfied and wrote to Newton that "You either do not know what is going on in the university, or you don't care, and in charity I will presume the former. To put it briefly, I doubt that you have the interest or con- cern to be in the position yon now hold."

Not to be outdone, Newton responded: "You have made your- self a symbol of the suppressive forces which are waging an all out assault on the university. It is always the same: 'Our way is the only American way. All others are un- American and subversive. You must silence those who do not agree with us!' Senator, I shall not silence them."

The furor began anew when Al- then printed a letter to the editor from Mitcham in which he referred to former President Dwight D. Eis- enhower as an "old futzer."

Mitcham, promptly called before the discipline committee, was upheld in his right to express "a philosophical point of view." State- wide criticism of Newton and the Colorado Dally followed, and New- ton fired Althen from his position as editor.

Newton Upheld

Although there was an initial protest rally, a poll of almost 3,000 students indicated support for President Newton's action by a margin of more than two to one.

Professor Junkins Discusses Art As Reproduction Of Life

'A Thurber Carnival'

by Jim Place t

Prof. Larry Junkins, visiting a r t instructor from Iowa, is presently filling the position left vacant by!

Professor Daniel Rhodes in the De-, sign Department of the 'College of Ceramics.

A graduate of the State Univer- sity of Iowa, Prof. Junkins .holds a Master of Fine Arts degree and was previously an assistant in un- dergraduate work in the Iowa State University School of Art.

Prof. Junkins prefers people "who a r e involved with the discipline of life in their work and produce beautiful abstract things." He believes that each student in the art field is aided in seeing inner possibilities through discipline in art and is encouraged to give his subject matter an intense look without a con- cern for the mere reproduction of the subject.

Involvement in Life Prof. Junkins also believes that

Prof. Larry Junkins than what the subject is representative of.

In - a two-hour interview, Prof.

Junkins stated that "a really unique it is important for the student to' drawing comes from an astute in- learn about the different media in kvolvement in capturing the true drawing, such as pen and ink, pen- painting," and that this ability is oil, and wash, through "an involve- gained only from experienue. "A ment in life." He thinks that once painter, contrary to popular opin*

the student begins to see, he "is, ion, does not leave his work to awakened to a greater range of chance. Nothing accidental ever en- possible human experience.' When ters into the work," he explained, the student sees the true subject,! A true painter must have a sheer according to Prof. Junkins, he must1 joy for manipulating color and form consider the visual quality rather! without regard to things being good

or bad. He must work until things seem to set up and express the painter's subconscious feelings.

Awaken Intuition

Prof. Junkins believes that there is a subjective subconscious area of the mind, referred to as intuition, which is in every person. It is this intuition that must be awakened in the student. A painter can be the most competent technician and craftsman and fail to achieve a true painting if there is no subjective knowledge entered into the work.

"Today, there is no support for a r t as in earlier times," reports

Prof. Junkins. "It ie a time when the art object Is more important than the subject matter. There is a great emphasis on the physical a r t of painting and also a large number of works dealing with sensa- tionalism."

"At present, we find a trend, which is Involved with a return to the feeling of imagery and ,an involvement of life," he continued.

Painters of today are concerned with creation and with discovering mysteries behind what is visible and to express those discoveries.

"It is these discoveries that come from experience." Prof. Junkins believes that great art today has meaning, and i t is this meaning j that comes from solid formal real- . ization.

Designers of winged, piloted craft for re-entry from space have been reluctant to use ceramic materials because they are "brittle" and fail without deformation, the authors note. The composite does deform a small amount prior to failure, however, and may prove to be useful for for such high temperature applications ; but first there is a great deal of research to be done on the material.

Campus Comedy

In his first class at an eastern university, a guest professor from France was aghast when several coeds calmly took out knitting bags and began to ply their needles. He could hardly finish the hour. By the time the class met again> however, he was ready with a solution.

"I have an important announce- ment to make," he said When the final bell rang. Then, as everyone quieted down expectantly, he continued, "It is simply this—only those young ladies will be permit, ted to knit in class who are preg- nant." There was no more knitting in his classes.

from the Oct., 1962 READER'S DIGEST

The opening scene, "Word Dance," started the play off to a quick-movinlg ,and ,iaugh-filled start. Four couples danced out on- to the stage, to the music of the jazz combo. When the music would stop, a dancer would turn toward the audience and offer a la,ugh line.

Then the music would begin again.

Besides this, three scenes stood out as the most enjoyable. "The Little Girl and the Wolf," provided

the perfect slap-stick finish to the

"Three Fables of Our Time." John Mocsowitz really swung a s the leather-jacket clad wolf. The "Last Flower," a collection of 51 g(ides of Thurber drawings, beautifully illustrated his philosophical ap- proach to life.

The funniest scene, in this re- viewer's opinion, was "Mr. Preble Gets Rid of His Wife," in which Mr. Preble (James Eng) planned to bury his wife (Ellen Meyer) so that he could run away with his secretary (Kati Gordon).

- Throughout the play, i f r . Eng's performance was outstanding. Be- sides this, it is hard to single out any other performance. The play, with few exceptions, was extremely well cast and the parts, with

few exceptions, were extremely well played. Richard Hazel, who played the lead in many scenes was not particularly outstanding, except in the final "Word Dance."

The two weak spots in the play seemed to be "If Grant Had Been Drinking at Appomatox" and "Gen-

tlemen Shoppers." It was not the acotrs, for the most part, that did a poor job. I t was the original script which seemed to lack in these two scenes the quick wit which was free-flowing in the rest of the play.

"Grant" turned out much better the second night, when John Mos- cowitz, as Grant, did & better job of keeping his beard in place. Larry Adlerstein's performance was another weak spot in this particular scene. He seemed a bit hammish and continually tense, awaiting applause for his own actions. I t must be pointed out, though, that Larry did a good job in other scenes.

Needless to say, much of the brilliance of the play was due to the direction of C. D. Smith. Or- lando del Valle provided good dance arrangements throughout. Finally, a review of this play would not be complete without a mention of the Jazz Combo (Michael Dentico, J a y Goldman, Ken Wissman, Ro- bert Levine) who performed well throughout.

Student Senate Shows Film ol Uganda Changes

An examination of the "poten- tially conscious, progressive-orient- ed people of Uganda, t h e newest member of the United Nations, was the theme of a film shown at Thursday's assembly.

The film, entitled "Gentle Winds of Change," was sponsored by the Student Senate. Rather than exam- ine t h e whole of Uganda, t h e film was concerned with a single tribe, the Banyankole. I t was prepared as part of a Columbia University 'study of t h e westernization of the 'emerging nations of Africa and

Asia.

The Banyankole are one of 13 : tribes in Uganda. They were shown

as representatives of societies that have been visibly influenced by the West yet maintain many of their ancient tribal customs. Among the visible influences of the West i n Mbarara, the central town i n the region inhabited by the Banyankole, are new schools and stores stocked with such Western products as can- goods, bicycles and textiles.

Besides these westernlzations, in Uganda are examples of t h e meet-

ing of Africa and the West. T h e film showed a modern hospital set up in Mbarara as a n example of how tribal customs are maintained.

Before ill tribesmen enter the hospital f o r modern medical care their relatives prepare ancient potions over fires o n the hospital lawn.

Another important Western im- pact on Uganda has been Christian- ity. Every Sunday hundreds of

tribesmen Ifrom the surrounding countryside pour into Mbarara in order to attend church.

"Gentle Winds in Africa" was filmed by Marshall H. Segall, assistant professor of psychology at Co- lumbia University, as part of h i s study of individual differences i n the Westernization process.

"One of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen anywhere in the worl was the Moscow subway, h e declared. "It was decorated like t h e Waldorf-Astoria dining room with elegant chandeliers — completely impractical — a joke."

Nlothing Since 1915 Mr. Cassidy discovered that most Russian buildings are shabby and poorly constructed. Anything that looks decent dates back t a t h e Tsarist regime. There are many old buildings, palaces, and churches that are kept up, but nothing new has been created since about 1916.

Mr. Cassidy also related that St.

Basil's in Moscow, one of t h e most beautiful Byzantine churches In Russia built in 1554, had its dome restored recently, ibut it is only used by "a few old women wear- ing babushkas and saying their rosaries for lost culture."

Most Russian students do not believe in God, Mr. Cassidy told Guild members. The Orthodox Christian- ism has been replaced by Leninism.

Beautiful old churches have been converted into atheist museums ex- hibiting pictures of priests tortur- ing children.

Editorial...

For the past several weeks the FIAT LUX has presented a Beries of articles on the honor system, both academic and social. The material for these articles was prepared and publish- by the National Student Association, and was the result of an intensive study of the system as it functions on a wide variety of college campuses.

Where the honor system does function effectively, the de- velopment of the individual and the promotion and extension of student responsibilities are its main objectives. It is generally felt that the prime object of an honor system is to develop the character of the individual student, to prepare him for the challenges and burdens of active citizenship.

With this in mind, we wonder why an honor system can- not be estabilshed at Alfred University. We are not so rash as to call for the immediate implementation of this system. It is obvious that a system depending entirely on students' accept- ance of responsibility and honesty cannot be imposed overnight and retain any chance of success. But we do strongly suggest that the possibility of establishing an honor system at Alfred University be thoroughly investigated.

Last year the committee appointed by President Drake to look into the honor system met with several student leaders and with the President of the Student Senate on numerous oc- casions; it broadly discussed the possibilities of some type of honor system at Alfred, but it stopped there.

It stopped because there was not sufficient student interest demonstrated in the creation of an honor system. Professor Robert Campbell, chairman of that committee, stated that the committee would not be reactivated unless student interest were aroused. Note: if the students are interested, the committee, which will report to the faculty and administration, will once again delve into the possibilities of implementing the system in one form or another.

We think the time has come for the student body and its representative organs, the Student Senate and the Woman's Student Government, to fully consider the idea of an honor system at Alfred. We suggest that the Senate take the obvious step of informing the administration and Professor Campbell that there is interest in an honor system, and then poll, either directly or indirectly, the student body to determine just how much interest there really is.

Furthermore, if these initial steps reflect a positive atti- tude, it will be incumbent upon the Senate (or whatever body will be directing the preparations for the system's establish- ment) to fully inform the student body as to what an honor system entails; the students must know what they will have to do to make the system tenable, they must understand what is expected of them and why, and they will have to strongly be- lieve in the principles and ethics inherent in an honor system.

At this time no one can say for certain that an honor sys- tem will work or not work at Alfred. There are many obstacles that will have to be overcome before any type of honor system can function here. But the advantages of having an honor sys- tem are overwhelming; the character traits that it can devel- op in man's early years are of the highest order. It can do much for Alfred; t can do much for its students.

As the final article in our Honor System series states, "Liv- ing under an honor system which has the respect and cooper- ation of the student body can be a truly valuable and important experience . . . " We hope that Alfred's students will be given the opportunity to partake of this experience.

Evelyn Gross, Brooklyn, Sr., LA T h e r e must 'be a groundwork laid before a full h o n o r system can be institut- ed. J u s t as when you establish a democracy, you need foundations. You must m a k e each step a little at a time; freedom must be combined with education. T h e educative process—the beginning of an honor system—

could be begun right now, in both the social and academjc fields.

Jeanne Smith, Syracuse, Sr.,. Nurse Yes, I believe that if the students a r e interested in establishing a n academic honor system we could work on trying to apply "this to Alfred. College students should be more willing to accept the responsibility of self- government, both academically and socially.

Kathy Llnzy, Arkport, Soph., LA I think t h a t an honor system is f e a s i b l e . W h e n we come to college we're

| all adults. We should be able to manage our lives. I was on an honor system at another school. It worked very well. W e knew w h a t the honor system consisted of, and abided by it. This was a social honor system, which I think Alfred is ready for.

Henry Hopkins, W. Orange, N.J.

Sr., LA

T o esta/blish s u c h a n honor isystenn would require the full cooperation of faculty, administration, and students. W i t h this cooperation, a definite working basis could be s e t up for the evolu- tion of an honor system. It should be done in gradual stages, with the definite aim of achieving a true honor system both social and aca-

demic. I would support both types of ssytems to their fullest extent.

Arnle Kneitel, Younkers, Sr., LA I'd like to see both a social and an academic honor system install- ed, at least on some kind of trial basis. As college students, w e should be given credit for having I a fair degree of responsibility and respect for rules and regulations by the administration. If such sys-

tems prove unworkable a f t e r a f a i r trial, the administration will have every right to discontinue theim. It is clear t h a t a chance for us to prove t h a t we have this minimum responsibility should be given to ns.

Dave Ball, Stamford, Conn., Soph.,. LA

I am definitely against an honor system of any sort, principally because it requires "tattling" on the part of students. This is neither morally r i g h t nor practically feasible. There is only one thing worse than an academic honor system and t h a t is a social honor system.

Besides, I like to cheat.

From the Chair

i b y Fred Silverstein;

On Thursday of the past week, the Student Senate spon- sored a film on Uganda for the assembly. Mike Stephens, NSA Coordinator, introduced the film and explained Uganda's cur- rent position in the world both politically and economically.

The film was produced by Columbia University and borrowed from the Syracuse University film library.

The title of the film was the "Sands of Time." This title indicated that it was a study of the gradual changes which have

occurred in Uganda under the influence of the western civili- zations. Towards this end, the film depicted some aspects of tribal life which have been effected to the greatest extent. They showed how many customs, especially the tribal religion, had given way to the influx of Christianity and Westerndom.

The film pointed out that the change has not been as great as would appear to Western observers. Apparently the tribal customs had incorporated the new culture and still exist- ed although in diluted amounts.

Uganda has just won he independence. In this light she demonstrates a typical problem that the newly independent African states face, the problem of self-government with a de- ficiency of trained leaders and an uneducated population. The film only touched on the political aspects of Uganda's inde-

pendence and perhaps should have been more concerned with this aspect of the culture.

The film was both informative and interesting as it depict- ed life in a society radically different from our own. I found the native music one of the most enjoyable aspects of the film.

T hope that the Center and the other clubs on campus will con- tinue to sponsor films such as this one as these films are both educational and enjoyable.

Next week I will devote my column to a study of an honor system at Alfred. I will state my own opinions and suggest a possible course of action toward the initiation of a program at Alfred.

Honor System Part IV

Reporting of Code Violators Primary Objection to System

This is the final article on the the loyalty of those who, have fective and to restrict their estah-

r CONSERVATIVE INQUIRY-

'Vox Kennedy, Vox Dei'

by George Potter

Honor system series. Last week the Inherent problems of establishing were discussed. It was suggested that an Honor Pledge be signed by each student when he enters school.

This week we will briefly consid- er objections to such a code, then discus sthe problem of "reporting,"

and finally draw some conclusions.

T h e signing of such an honor pledge is a matter of much contro- Tersy. Many believe that a student assumes the obligation attendant upon life under an honor system When he becomes a member of the student community. Whether1 or not this assumption of responsibility is formalized through the signing of a pledge is a matter of in- difference.

Furthermore, they helieve that it Is dangerous to consider the initial pledge a contractual obligation on the part of the student signer. This tends to lead to a situation in which the "legal" point of view is unduly stressed; where a student may avoid punishment for an offense if he should have failed to sign the pledge.

The significance of this is obvious. For its proper functioning, an honor system must be actively upheld by everyone in the school; it Is not a mere pact made for a chosen few. When an individual decides to enter a certain college, he is, whether he realizes it or not, de- ciding to accept its honor system a t the same time. The signing of the Pledge should serve only as a formality, a reminder.

One of the major obstacles, both to the establishment of an honor system on campuses where It does not exist and to he successful func- lonlng of it, seems to be the idea of reporting one's self or one's friends to a committee when a rule has been violated. Polls and ques- tionnaires have indicated that the Idea of reporting has resulted in the failure of many schools to adopt an honor system. There seems to be a linking In students' minds of the idea of 'squealing" with this system of reporting on fellow stu- dents. Perhaps, If a convincing dis- tinction between the two could be made, one of the most easily mis- understood points of he honor sys- em might be clarified.

First for the existence of har- mony in any given group it is man- datory that every individual have a respect for the principles and goals of the group as a whole, and perform his share of the task of maintaining them. From an objec- tive point of view, when an act has been committed against one of these principles, it is the individual's duty to rectify it, lest the har- mony of he group be weakened, and eventually lost. All this may seem a bit ridiculous or farfetch- ed when it is applied to a case where Joe College spies roommate drinking in a place that has been declared "off-limits" under the hon- or system, but there '.s grave dan- ger involved here also.

Is not the errant roommate mak- ing a complete mockery out of a system whose very success rests in

agreed to abide by it? When someone undertakes to violate the hon- or system, his action can be said to be personally offensive to every member of his group, because their compliance is what makes the hon- or system. When one sees his friends abusing the honor system, he sould try to think first of the relationship that exists between them as constituents of a body under an honor code, because that is the relationship that is receiving the injury. The fact that the two parties involved are close friends or mere friendly acquaintances makes it more difficult for justice to be done, but one must be ma- ture enough to accept the demands which an honor system makes of him if he is to enjoy its privileges.

Insofar as pettiness is concerned, was not the roommate being even smaller in infringing upon the hon- or system than our subject is in reporting him? In most schools, the procedure is to ask the violator to report himself, before reporting his offense to the authorities one- self. If we look at it properly, one la actually doing his friend a fav- or in the long run, when, instead of ignoring the misdemeanor, he asks his friend to report himself.

By this act, he is giving his friend a chiance to make restitution for his offense.

Again, a respect for rules which are reasonable is the only foundation upon which the reporting system can work. The matter must be serious and must involve an offense against honor before one can reasonably be expected to place loyalty to an honor code before the very natural loyalty to his fellow students and friends.

Conclusion

Having looked into what an hon- or system entails, It can be readily seen that such a set-up Is not im- mediately feasible for every col- lege. At a school where cheating on exams is prevailing, it is high- ly improbable that the installation of an honor system will put an end to the wrongdoing. The mind of the student body In general must be fully attuned to the principles of an honor system before It can be established.

The primary motive for the establishment and continuance of an honor system on a given campus is the betterment of the individual student. Certainly, living under an effective honor system is a valuable means of increasing the individual's maturity and integrity, but what is the effect of the system Which is lightly regarded, or even openly disregarded? Most students upon entering college tend to reflect the attitude which they find prevalent on campus. If, on a given campus, the honor system is only a worthless shell, the individual tends to adopt a very cynical attitude toward the concept of honor, an attitude which may have a very grave effect on his future behav- ior.

This being the case, is it not wis- er to atoid the generalization that honor Systems are universally ef-

lishment to campus situations where they can truly be of real benefit to the individual student?

Laving under an honor system which has the respect and cooperation of the student body can be a truly valuable and important experience, which should be enjoyed by >as many students in as many colleges as fin it possible. If an honor system does not work, however, it is again only a kindness to the students as Individuals to rescind it until the time and situation arises where it would be re- spected, thus assuming the undeni- able value inherent in its nature.

His cri- tics, however, charged that Newton buckled under tremendous political pressure. The Colorado Board of Regents is elected by popular ref- erendum and the Daily incident quickly became a political issue, with Republicans demanding 'New- ton's head and Democrats defending

Norton Named Guidance Head

Mr. Joseph Norton has been appointed co-ordinator of the Alfred University counseloring program for the 1962-63 academic year.

The program is designed to' help students with educational, vocation- al and personal problems. A student who is undecided about a ca- reer or a major may discuss his problem with Mr. Norton or one of the other counselors. Counseloring Is based on tests and an exploration of all aspects of the decision that must be made.

"All of the counselors are well qualified to aid students with their problems," said Mr. Norton. He did graduate work at Syracuse Univerl- 'slty, and was a counselor at Michi- gan State University and Knox Col- lege and Is presently teaching in Alfred's graduate school.

I The other counselors are Mrs.

Norton and Mrs. Daniel Sass. Mrs.

Norton studied at Syracuse Univer- sity and was a counselor at its Mental Hygiene Clinic for two years. Mrs. Sass has a master's degree in counseloring from Ohio Uni- v e r s i t y and was a dormitory coun-

selor there.

Appointments for counseloring may be made any morning, Monday I through Friday. The appointments

are given for any afternoon, evening or Saturday morning. Mr. Nor- ton's office Is in room 30 of South Hall.

One of the secrets of life Is to keep our Intellectual curiosity acute.

William Lyon Phelps

The Aerospace Industry has historically been opposed to- compulsory unionism. Six months ago, the first insidious union/

exhortations fell upon an already belabored industry. Reuther'»

UAW threatened to strike the six major companies unless they forced their non-union workers to join or pay dues.

When these demands were presented, the harrassed indus- try presented a united front. July 16 the front disintegrated as financially unstable Douglts acquiesced to the threats, com- pelling their non-union employees to pay the union the equiva- lent of dues and assessments. "Within two weeks 2,000 Douglas workers signed petitions protesting (1) compulsion to pay a union agency in order to hold a job, (2) compulsory support of a union's political objectives, (3) support of officials they did not trust, and (4) principles they did not believe in. One week later, Douglas received a $141 million government missile contract. Douglas, Jr., answered one critical stockholder—

"Our decisions . . . must consider not only the interest of our employees . . . but those of the national government."

The remaining five companies held firm; encouraged pro- test petitions and letters from union members asking for de- fense against union distatorships. But the govermet acted swift- ly to aid Reuther; Arthur Goldberg, then Secretary of Labor, asserted that the Douglas agreement should become the indus- try pattern. The President, ignoring the machinery established expressly for disputes such as this in the Taft-Hartley Act, ap- pointed a "fact finding" board. George W. Taylor, chairman of the board and an advocate of repeal of right to work section of the Taft-Hartley Act, deliberated briefly and recommended that a union shop be established if two-thirds of the industry's work- ers voted in favor of such a proposal.

Reuther hastened to say he was "gratified" and Kennedy added that if there were a strike because of non-compliance the

"responsibility would be very clear." Lockheed read the "find- ings" and announced its decision—a blunt "no". (Lockheed was the first California aircraft manufacturer to sign a union contract.) They asserted "freedom to join or not to join an organization is a basic individual right—like speech, religion, choosing a job or moving to a new community. It should re- main the individual's personal decision."

C. C. Mitchell, chairman of Aerospace Worker for Free- dom, (a union member for 10 years, most of that time as an elected official) stated "I have repeatedly seen first hand the employment of tactics which make a mockery of the ballot — the freedom of thousands of citizens would be submitted to a vote."

On September 19 North American accepted the "principle'*

of the Taylor report. Two months earlier the President had told employees, " We believe union membership should be voluntary.*

Government contracts comprise 95 per cent of North American business.

"Mr. President, freedom cannot live in this land, nor in any other land, whe the muscle of powerful centralized government is used to beat it down. The payment of a political debt in the currency of freedom must not be tolerated in this country."

—Senator Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz.)

Legislation Enacted Repealing Four-Year-Old Loyalty Oath

Students now applying for Na.

tlonal Defense loans will no long- er be required to sign non-Com- munist oaths. President Kennedy recently signed legislation abolish- ing the oath.

Kennedy noted that the action was taken after 32 colleges decid- ed not to participate in the student- loan program and others did so only reluctantly. Spokesmen for these colleges said the oath 'discriminat- ed against college students and was

offensive to them."

Kennedy also said "It IS highly unlikely that the affidavit require*

ment kept any Communists out of the program. It did, however, keep out those who considered the dis- claimer affidavit a bridle upon free*

dom of thought."

Congress' action takes the oath requirement from the National Scl*

ence Foundation and National De- fense Education laws.

The Alfred Cheerleaders have again brightened up another Saxon football season with their shout- ing, cartwheeling, and twisting.

This spirited group cajoles a some- times more "spirited" Alfred spec- t a t o r s to cheer the Saxons to ano-

ther victory.

The Cheerleaders are led by Sihr- ley Grey, Art Schulman, Managers, and Celeste Johnston, Secretary- Treasurer. Other members of the squad are Stella Martinowsky, Jane Zwittle, Linda Chaus, Barbara Beck, Sue Ellen Alberts, Kathy Kohler, Sue Pryor, and Pat Brewster. Male cheerleaders besides Art Schulman a; e Ralph Strauss, and Bob Plesser.

The Cheerleaders receive.a sub- sidy from the university but, for

the most, part, they pay for away games themselves.

Tryouts which are highly com- petitive start November 5. Fur- ther meetings will be announced then. It is required that all pros- pective members must atend four ou of the six practices before ry- -outs. The tryouts will include tryouts for the freshman and varsity girls' squads and varsity men.
