Mrs. Black Arrives As Kruson's Head Resident
Mrs. Black is Kruson's new head resident. Before coming to Alfred she worked at the University of Buffalo Dental School, where she
\fas in contact with young men more than with young women. As a rule, Mrs. Black has found that girls are more critical than boys albout little things, but likes work- ing with boys and girls equally well.
¡She enjoys bowling, bridge, read- ing and knitting but especially looks fonriard to talking with the girls; talking but their problems.
Having lived in Hamburg, New York, she is used to Alfred weather. She thinks Alfred is a beautiful town and favors the small town atmosphere, which is much f a r m e r and friendlier t h a n that of bigger cities. She likes the slower pace here ¡because there 1b
more time to get to know the peo- ple, and is already familiar with Alfred's "hello tradition".
Mrs. Black has two married children, a son and a daughter, and four grandchildren. She is aware of the crucial moments that some- times occur ¡between head residents and the girls, but hopes for a happy dorm. She has been made to feel a t home by everyone and is looking forward to a wonderful year.

When the Frosh home football game is played on October 31 we hope to see the class of '63 cheering for their team en masse in the Merrill Field stands.
P.S. Incidentally we are looking forward to seeing and hearing the entire student body at Merrill Field this Saturday evening at 8:15 when the Saxons take on Cortland State in the initial game of the 1959-60 campaign.
Frosh Griders Under DuBreuil Playing Well and Learning Fast
by Eric Harrison Though faced with a rough
three-game schedule, new Fresh- man football coach Cliff DeBreuil feels that his forces will more than .adequately meet the. challenge.
DeBreuil, a graduate of Indiana University, came to Alfred from t h e University of Rochester. There, he was assistant football coach, team trainer, and assistant track
«coach.
Aiding DeBreuil will be Tom Cechini, a junior, who played var- sity football until sidelined by an injury. Tom will be line coach.
Yunevich's Men Scrimmage With Rochester Varsity
Alfred held & scrimmage with Rochester, Saturday, on the U of R campus. Although no formal rec"
ord of the score was kept, Alfred1
came out on the short tnd, as tihey failed to oross the goal line.
The team, however, is coming along, and accdrdin to coach Yune- vich, looked better this week than it scrimmaged with Lycoming last week. Running from a straight T formation moat of the yardage was gained on the ground. There was some fine passing from quarter- back Steve Kelly.
The team beins the season at borne Saturday night against Cort- land State. Kick-off time 8:16.
Joe Renwick, all - conference quarterback at St. Marys High School of Pennsylvania is describ- ed by DuBreuil as "The Q. B." He is nifty and learns fast.
In the/ guard slots are Tom Quinn, a' fast middle guard, Dick Block, and James Berry. At tackle the Purple and Gold have fast and aggressive Joe Green. "He is the quickest man on the team for the first three steps," says Coaoh Du- Breuil. Seam McKinley and Tony Pavonl both have fair size and are very aggressive. Rounding out the tackles Is Bob Preston, who has a massive pair of arms.
The ends are Dave Lutsie, Ron Hilt, CosLmo DePizza, who moves
"like a ghost," and Walt Leonard, a determined fighter. Phil Wertz and Dan Haight, who is playing football for the first time in his life and doing-an excellent Job, will fill the center position.
In the backfield are Vic Cia- botti, Lou Furhmann, Tom Mac- Vitte, John Sawyer, and Joe Irount.
Coach DeBreuil describes them as
"five backs with speed and no care for personal safety."
The freshman Warriors, who will operate out of a '/straight T "
formation "have a lot of spirit,"
said Coach DuBreuil.

LETTER8 TO THE EDITOR
SPEAKING OF SPORTS
by Neal Gantcher and Ira Rubenstein t
This year Alfred University will field more intercollegate athletic teams than ever before in the history of the school.
Prime interest will be focused on the newly formed Freshman football squad.
Coach Clifford DeBruil, the frosh mentor via the University of Rochester, has been guiding his 23 man squad into top form.
Working under the handicap of never having played together before the boys have begun to operate as a well-balanced, co- hesive unit.
They are striving not only to bring credit' to themselves but also to the Alfred student body. In particular though, their efforts are geared towards bringing distinction and recognition to the Freshman class. The class of '63 should acknowledge this by giving full support to their team.
Although we all cannot play on Saxon teams, you in the Freshman class can do your share in supporting ;and strength- ening the "spirit" tlhat is native to Alfred. By coming out and' rooting for your teams you will be helping to perpetuate this feeling.
During the past years student interest in freshman sports has been noticably lacking on the campus. This year with a new freshman sport much attention will be focused on the Frosh students. Alumni, faculty and upperclassmen will be waiting to see if the Frosh teams gain the full support of their class- mates. Needless to say it is expected that the upperclassmen wjll try to do their share in imbuing the Frosh with the A.U.
¡spirit. This emotional and intangible recognition of human en- deavor is vital t)0 a college campus that wishes to be a well in-i tegrated student body.
When you Freshmen see the full support that the rest of the istudent' body will give to the varsity football squad during the first three home games you will undoubtedly appreciate what we are trying to stress. It should also be mentioned that from the reports coming to us about the freshmen basketball team you will also want to carry your enthusiasm into the basketball cam- paign.

Saxons Open Against Cortland;
Starting Team Still Uncertain
The sucess of a football team is not truly represented by its won-lost record as much as by the lessons it has learned and the corresponding improvements that can be made by remedying its apparent weaknesses. This year's varsity squad must look back upon last season's campaign, during which they won 'but one game, as a valuable lesson for the forth- coming competition.
Extensive experimentation with a squad numbering only 25 men has made it impossible to predict
•Saturday's starting eleven. How- ever, it now appears that Dick De- Mot* will start at quarterback with Steve Kelley, in his first year out for the team, backing him up.
Letterman Steve Crossman and Richie Falcigno, sophomores, will probably get the nod for the half- back slots. Tom Ferguson looks set for the fullback position.
Joe Yannuzzi has been moved from tackle to end. John 'Pfeiffer, a center last season, may get the other end assignment. Alex Zoldan, Joe Franta, and Ron Pagan, have been working effectively at tackle during pre-season practice and will probably see action this Saturday. Bill McAlee and Fred Macholz are 'at the guard positions and Ron Hatch at center.
An outstanding season from the 1959 Saxons cannot 'be promised, although a highly exciting one, with four, home games, is expected.
