Seniors to Hear Reverend Crossland At Annual Baccalaureate Serviées
Rev. Weldon F. Crossland, min- ister of the Ausbery-First Method- ist Church will be the speaker at the Baccalaureate Services held for graduating seniors on May 26, in Alumni Hall.
Rev. Crossland graduated from Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1913. He re.
oeived his Doctor of Divinity - de- gree in 1923 from the same Uni- versity.
From 19IS-1916 he was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford, England. Rev.
Crossland is the author of five books, a writer of several pam-\
phlets, and a contributor to many other church activities.
The Baccalaureate marks the last time before graduation that the seniors will appear as a group in their caps and gowns. There is a procession of the seniors and professors to Alumni Hall while Dr. Wingate plays the carillon.
Senior activities will begin with the Baccalaureate services, culmi-
nating in the graduation ceremony. The Reverend Weldon P. Crossland

The design should definitely be suggestive of books and reading, may make use of any part of the new building, must be done in black and white, and must include the following: Herrick Memorial Li- brary, Alfred, University. Designs must be submitted to the librarian on or before May 10.
The library committee will act as judges, and their decisions will be final. The committee will reserve the right to reject all entries If none, in their judgment, seems ap- propriate.

been collected for the ambulance drive. The cash amounted to over
$5,426.52, and the remaining mon- ey will be underwritten by the Crandall Hook and Ladder Co., on pledges.
Since the ambulance drive has considerably exceeded its $5000 goal, a better ambulance will be purchased than originally planned.
It was decided to purchase a 1957 dover white Buick.
It is expected that there will be enough funds available to purchase a two-tank resuscitator after all the reports on funds are made.

From the Editor
All That Glitters . . •
It has been suggested in some circles that a new type of
"Moving-Up Day" be inaugurated — one which would signify the advancement of an institution of higher learning rather than the mere mechanical movement of classes. On a local level, the questions seem to be : "Is the University advancing at all, as a university, or are certain individuals taking it upon themselves to progress in a very personal manner? Can the University be considered as a unit with its own personality, thus taking ad- vantage of checks and balances to avoid the bias of individual members, or is it an oval for cyclic frustration on the part of sincerely interested persons?"
We must answer truthfully that we're not sure. There seems to be a fair share of faculty members and students on campus for whom education has taken on real meaning. On the other hand, the University, as a personality itself, seems to be devoid of any such interest.
We see where a University panel will outline the qualifica- tions a student must possess for admission to AU, on a tele- vision program from WRGB in Schenectady. Perhaps another phase of thé program should clarify what the University ex- pects from the graduating student.
The University has a right to expect and demand adherence to certain standards of
vparticipation and improvement, and we feel that a majority of students would fulfill such expectations.
Up to now, however, Alfred, as a unit, has shown no demand or expectation for its enrollees to be students. Negativism, when pushed to its limit, can appear to the outsider to be something else.

9Letters to the Editor
MOVEMENT QUESTIONED Dear Editor:
Just to keep myself straight on the Alfred University development plans recently summarised by President Drake, I would like to ftsk a few questions. Thè contest is open to anyone on the Alfred campus, but you have to be pretty smart to answer them, right T
How much for example, will alumni and friends have to con- tribute before the administration breaks ground on some new, sen- sible policies, Will the cornerstone ever :be laid on an Alfred Hall of Non-Sectarianism? Perhaps t h e school is waiting for the proceeds of the sale of Merrill Field foot- ball lights before they venture in- to such new fields.
Would an Honor System for Al- fred academic and social lives cost even this much? Or is the thing which is so "dear" the "Old Alfred System?"
Why "Of particular interest to students is physical plant," or why does the president think so? Is it too much for students to expect a faculty with active interest in its teaching and its pupils»? Per- haps we should be satisfied with
a faculty which substitutes a pas- sive acceptance of a Job well un-
done. 1
It will take a lot of 35c basket, ball games to sponsor to prof or administration with the honest in- terest and honest attempt, as well as the school with the Honor Sys- tem. Finally, if the students have to reach in their pockets for this Cause as well, how many would even try?
Sincerely, Daniel Gurney WRONG IMPRE8SION 7 Dear Editor:
I am under the impression that the $10 which each participating softball team pays Into the treasur- y of the Intramural League is for the purpose of paying for both um- pires and equipment for the game.
If this is the case, then why were there no umpires for the RATS' first game and only one umpire for the second game? In- cidentally, the League didn't even supply a soitball for that second game.
Huh?

He continued, "The play is an easy one to produce, hut we are working BOW to give' it finesse, which is difficult because 'A Doll's House' has no unusual stage effects to depend on, dnly actors, acting, and direction."

The activities at this three day meeting centered around the vari- ous committee meetings, caucuses, and plenary sessions.
Most committee work was occu- pied with the diecusBion of resolu- tions concerning problems actually before the United Nations. Cau- cuses were employed for the pur- pose of consolidating block poli- cies. Indonesia was a member , of the Afro-Asian block.
The main speakers at the three plenary sessions were Mr. William L. Holland, Prof. Harlan Cleveland, and Prof. Ahmed Bokhari.
lighting is moderately realistic.
The two Alumni Hall switchboards have been moved down into the gym. It is interesting to note that in the performance of "A Doll's House" the Footlight Club will use a couple of spotlights designed by Norman Emden, former director of lighting for the Footlight Club. The spots were sent as a gift from Mr.
Emden, who is currently in Se- attle.
Most of the costumes have been rented from Van Horns in Phila- delphia. The sound department has no major problems in this play; one of its most technically fascinating effects, however, is the creation of a second floor over the Helmers' apartment by means of sound.
Th makeup will be as natural as possible, especially since the au- dience will view the actors at such close range.

The darkness of the set serves two purposes: it helps create the mood of the period, and it also en- ables the actors to dominate the set instead of vice versa, as often happens in amateur productions.

"Elijah" Oratorio
To Be Presented Dean McMahon Honored Twice
On Sunday evening, May 12, at 8 p.m., Mendelssohn's "Elijah" will be presented in the Seventh Day Baptist Church.
This will be the Music Depart- ment's annual Spring Concert and features the combined voices of the University Chorus and Chapel Choir. Admission will not be charg- ed and the performance is open to the public.
Soloists performing in the ora- torio are all from the University, except one, who is a recent Alfred graduate. The participating soloists are: Carolyn Simpson, soprano;
Owen Whiting, contralto; Paul Green, tenor; John Peck, bass. John is presently from Rochester and was a recent soloist in the Brahms
"Requiem'1 presented by the R0- chester Oratorio Society. David Johnson, head of the music depart- ment, will conduct the group while accompanying them on the organ.
"Elijah" is Mendelssohn's most1
famous oratorio aqd this is believ- ed to be its first performance at Alfred. It was chosen because none of Mendelssohn's works have been represented on campus.
The .work is based on the power- j ful and dramatic story of the fa- mous Biblical prophet. It tells of tiie Israelites under the rule of wicked King Ahab who are warned
1 by Elijah that God will send drought and famine anless they repent of their sins.

Mdley High Man for Alfred Trackmen
Picking Up 10 Points in Field Event»
The Alfred track team journeyed up to Hamilton on Sat- urday to meet the Red Raiders of Colgate. The cindermen were
looking for their second dual meet victory of the season, but the big-time Maroon team led all the way to defeat the fast- dosing Saxon squad, 1V/2 to 59Vfe.
The tracksters get another shot at win number two tomor- , now when they meet Ithaca at Terra Cotta Field. The meet
-«opens at 3:30 with field events, while the track contests start
•at 4:00.
Led by junior Tod Bocuzzi, Col- gate started well both in track and field events. Frank Schuerholz reg- istered a 4:31.6 mile victory, while
Larry Sweet led the Alfred milers 3n second. Frank Flnnerty, who picked up an easy 4:24.7 mile vic- t o r y last Wednesday against Buf-
falo, did not compete.
Slim Steve Reiley was the big Tproducer for Alfred, picking up
joints in three field events. Hie tied for first with team-mate Steve Co- hen in the near-sweep high jump linale. Kelley took second in both the pole vault and broad jump, be- hind Colgate's Bill Williams and
Bob Lewis.
Bocuzzi, captain-elect of the Raid,
•era winter track team, took first
•place in each event he entered. He took the javelin throw as well as the 100 and 220 yard dashes; which lie clocked in at 10iO and 21.4.
The other Saxon firsts went to S^eet in an easy 2 mile victory and 3111 Clark who breezed through the 220 yard low hurdles at 25.4.

Saxons Best UB, As Four Runners Take Double Wins
Perhaps the Saxon trackmen -aren't to blame for the hot weather
• out on Terra Gotta Field last Wed- nesday, but their blazing romp over the University of Buffalo certainly
> didn't cool things down. The open- ing dual meet saw Alfred breeze to a 99 1-3 to 31 2-3 victory.
Frank Finnerty, Willy Clark, Steve Kelley and Dick Kappus led the way with double wins, as Sax- ons took every running event on
<the card.
(Finrierty wtas never threatened as he clipped off a 4:24.7 time in the mile run. He came back later to
take the two mile as well.
Clark won both hurdles events, -while Kelley took both the broad jump and the high jump.

• h M H ^ P (FIAT Photo by £ j o n s ) Steve Kelley demonstrates the form which enabled him to cop the high jump event at the recent Alfred dual meets with Buffalo and Col- gate. The slender freshman from Avon has also placed in the pole vault and the broad jump in both meets.
Tackle by number -38, Shultz . These word«, echoed through the hills of Western New York, and sites played by the Saxon football- ers during the past four years, have gone hand in hand with top flight football.
As a freshman Chuck Shultz showed promise, of being a top flight end . . . Today he is a two- time Ail-American end and has a signed contract with the Balti- more Colts of the NFL for 1959.
It's a long $iay from Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania, to Alfred Uni- versity, to professional football, but one Charles H. Shultz has made the transition.
As a result of his play for Coach Yunevich's t/wlce-in-a-row undefeat- ed and untied Warriors, both the Saxons and Shultz have received naitional attention.
Because of his play the members of the University's Varsity ''A" Club have named iShultz the recipient of the first annual Senior Athlete of the Year Award. . .
This year the decision was not hard tó make, because of thè out- standing calibre of one finé ath- lete, gentleman and scholar, Chuck Shultz. The ovation he received at the Moving-Up Day ssembly clearly shows that Saxon fans agree with the Club's selection.

derson, Mike Tobias and Stan Mos- kowitz paced the squad to a 5-4 triumph over the Green and Gold Eagles.
(Continued from page *ne) For Shultz, this is the highest possible award that his School can offer. However, honors are nothing new for the Turtle Creek. Pa,, ath- lete. Chuck was elected to the first team Little All American for two consecutive years by an Ashosiated Press poll.
However, when questioned about his biggest moments or honors, the Saxon star said that- it was the opportunity of playing on a team with two unblemished seasons. In his opinion, his biggest thrill was the year's upset victory oyer the strong Buffalo squad.
An Offer, and a Decision This game probably figures as a turning point in Chuck's career.
Several pro scouts were in attend, ance and his performance at Rotary Field as well as glowing reports of his past accomplishments led to the Baltimore offer.
Because Charlie plans eventually to go into teaching history and do- ing a little coaching in high school, he could not arrive at the decision immediately. A few days after he accepted the Baltimore bid, Shultz was contacted by the Pittsburgh Steelers with an offer.
The Alfred gridder will not see service in the football league until 1959. His immediate plans are for graduate work here/ next year in education. Chuck will euter the ar- my in 1958 for a six-months tour and then report to the Colts.
The Reason Why
Shultz prefers to give most of the credit for his success to his coaches, both In high school and col- lege. However, he singled out Yune- vich as the "best coach I've seen or had anything to do with." Chuck figures the success of the head football coach as coming from that intangible asset of getting the max- imum output from any player.
