African Crisis Faced By U.S.;

Colonial Tactics Must Change

by Robert Johnson

Secretary-General Dag Hammer- ekjold's recently' announced for- mula to end strife in the Congo highlights one point prevalent throughout the continent: innum- erable plans have ibeen proposed for various problems, hut few solu- tions have been forthcoming. Ev- ery respective power bloc in Afri- ca has held conferences and spout- ed forth ideas, hut because of their very number, the net gain is often only more confusion, with various groups denouncing their opponents as either colonialist stooges or Communist tools. In the midst of these flying charges ,it is often difficult to recognize the accom-

between European and African.

Only by such cooperation—poTitS- cal and economic, rather than military—will the African nations at- tain the maturity and experience necessary in their new roles as independent nations. The opportu- nities for the West are many, but the dangers are equal. President Kennedy's New Frontier may well fnld itself lost in the jungle of Af- rican politics.

A major task facing the new Administration lies in convincing

•the governments of Portugal, France, and South Africa that they are not "defending the West against Communism." by their op-]

pression of the racial majorities

•laying the groundwork for future Communist penetration. Eventual- ly Tie Negroes of Angola, Mozam- bique, and South Africa will control their own destinies. The words which Kennedy spoke in 1957 in

Grant Given to Dr. MacDonnell For Nervous System Research

Dr. Malcolm F. MacDonnell, As- sistant Professor of Psychology at Alfred University, has received a

$2,300 research grant from the United States Public Health Ser- vice.

The funds will be used far research on functions of specific brain cells of the central nervous system. The general problem on Which he will work is closely link- ed to such behavioral phenomena as attention and learning.

Dr. MacDonnell will study areas o the central nervous system which produce nervous responses to both light and sound. He will seek to

determine whether the same brain cells or different brain cells re- spond to light and sound, or whether the cells work interchange- ably in performing these two functions. He will also measure the degree to which a cell that is busy handling a light stimulus hampers

the work of a cell which is sig- naling detection of a sound.

A third element of the project will be to measure the influence of several types of anesthesia on this interference effect between auditory and visual stimuli.

Dr. MacDonnell will also Con- tinue related research on ability of cells in the auditory projection area to recover from loud noise when the brain is under the ef- fects of different types of anesthesia land varying depths of anesthesia.

Dr. MacDonnell has been a member of the Alfred University faculty sinfce 19'57 when he completed work for his doctorate at Florida State University. A native of Mel- rose, Mass., he earned Ms BA. in Psychology a t Tufts University, his MA. at the University of Alabama, and began work fin* his doctorate

at Brown University.

an editorial

Understanding through Communication

In the reprint of a "Derfla University" article concerning New Year's resolutions in our last edition we couldn't help but notice the concluding statement which dealt with " . . , the ancient art óf mutual communication."

Taking the cue from Derfla, we started considering many of the problems they mentioned and it occurred to us that per- haps Alfred, too, could stand some improvement in the formerly mentioned area.

It is important for the students, faculty and administration of a school to have mutúal respect created through a thorough- going comprehension of problems, goals and, most importantly, the steps being taken to achieve these goals.

The powers-that-be in a university should try to develop an enviable rapport between themselves and the student body. And in turn, the University has the right to expect that the students will have confidence and respect for certain standards which have been established.

Through certain channels, whose identity we will protect, it has come to our attention that many plans for the long range development of Alfred University have been formulated. We can appreciate the desire for a certain degree of secrecy for effectual

continuance of these plans. However, it is incomprehensible to ns, that following a general letter to all students, informing them of a tuition increase for the coming academic year, no mention was made of the building plans to which this increase may contribute in one way or another.

We believe that the students, as well as the residents of Buffalo, via the Courier-Expréss would be interested in knowing that a new men's dorm with dining hall facilities, and an

$800,000 science building will be built in the very near future.

Perhaps also the student body would be interested in knowing of the purchase of a large tract of land on top of Jericho Hill, to be used for increased athletic facilities.

Student awareness of projects like these create a sense of pride within the student body for Alfred, as well as fostering a respect for the administration that guides their education. It is important for the administration to realize that they are educat- ing young men and women—people who will be, to use a trite phrase, "the leaders of our country," the businessmen, leaders in government, professional men and the future parents of the next generation.

It is unreasonanble to expect that these people, upon the acquisition of a diploma will suddenly become—"p-o-o-f"—ma- ture adults. We suggest that they should always be viewed in a positive manner and that all dealings between the students and the University should be conducted with person to person, adult to adult standards.

The lack of the aforementioned standards might be one of the causes for general lack of enthusiasm for Alfred offering a well-rounded education in all fields of academics and leadership.

Let it suffice to say that we hope in the future, that not only will the student body be moré cognizant of the stature of Alfred as a university, but that the administration will! be more cogni- zant of the stature of the students, not only as members, but as maturing adults who are people. We are not an "IBM'' school;

we are a university and traditionally—"the friendly campus."

Letter To The Editors

A letter published last week in this column began: "Once again, the sloppiness . . . " F o r a moment I held my breath, thinking t h a t someone had beaten one to the punch. But no, t h a t writer was criticizing t h e gloppiness at the Bartlett kitchen while I want to criticize t h e sloppiness of the Fiat.

**Intramural* Swing Into 4th Round; Three Tied For Top**

by Joe Rosenborg

Action in t h e intramural league before t h e exaan break was hot, heavy and at times, surprising." On J a n u a r y 15 the impossible almost happened; a t the end of regulation play, Delta Sig tied the Running Bears, 30-30. The Bears, without Benson and Renwick came through in the overtime to win 38-30. Right laifter this, Tau Delt, tied with the Kluweless Kappa Ptei team at the half, 19-alll, upset their favored ad- versaries in the biggest upset of t h e young season.

Things got back to normal the following Tuesday as Lambda Chi looked unbeatable in their 4i5-25 romp over Klan. Klam was up for this game but that wasn't enough and Lambda Chi, behind McDonald, Warner and Trivedpiece showed their brute strength and superla- tive defensive ability. Coach A1 Schefifler's Rhodies team also were time to form as they handily dis- posed of Cannon 37-30.

Rebounding from their recent upset, Kappa Ps>i almost puilled off an upset themselves. Kappa Psi | with the services of Eric Kluwe almost overtook the Running Bears. Down by about ten at t h e half, Kluwe led his men with fif- teen points in their coimelback during the laat stanza; howeveT, the point total rolled up by he Bears was too much and the final outcome was 50-46 for the undefeated Bears: In a key contest for he cell- ar, h e underdog Gannon team

olasted the Smoothies 39-13. The Delta Sig team behaving like the girl with the curl was easily taken by the much improved Gails 48- 32. The lethargic Delta Sags were no match far the aggressive, hard playing Gails and Shawn McKin- ney's sixteen points.

Kappa Nu turned aside the up- setting trend as they flew easily p a s t the hapless Saxons 63-17. T h e alert' defensive play of Fagen, Gold- berg and Silverman kept the Sax- on attack inert and allowed KN's

sharpshooters to hit at will, f a r a good portion of the first half,

Rhodies outplayed Lambda, Chi but the fine defensive play of Rathburn, Warner and Trivelpiece contained t h e Rhodies attack. In t h e second half Lambda Chi assert- ed their superiority and won going away 8⁷-12. Rhodes however, played a fine game and Arnie Wallen played the greatest defensive game

of the season holding McDonald to four points.

Winding up the third round, Klan wore down Taiu Delt and t h a n k s to Jim Tuzzeo's ball handling and sixteen points, gained a 47-36 victory.
