PRESIDENT DAVIS BIDS WELCOME TO
ALL NEW STUDENTS
Dear Editor of the Fiat Lux:
I am glad to accept your invitation to say a word through the Fiat Lux welcoming new and returning students to the campus.
This ninety-sixth year of Alfred's history is a good year in which to enter college, because the entering class is the Centennial Class, and this college generation will see Alfred's history round out a century, and make the final preparation for /the beginning of the second century. It is a rare privilege to help put the finishing touches on a century old institution, which is destined to live for many centuries, and bear the stamp of the first century in all its future history.
I am particularly glad to have the privilege of knowing and welcoming the members of the Class of 1936, and seeing them started on this notable four years. I am glad also for the return of all former students who have been fortunate enough to be able to take up again college work. Wel- come back /to Alfred!
The presence of every one of All fred's students this year is an added satisfaction to me as I anticipate the tasks and the privileges and joys of this my last year on the campus as your "Prexy".
The re-organization of the State College of Ceramics is an event in this ninety-sixth year which will also make it outstanding.
If in addition tc these special fea- tures of the new year, there can be a genuine spirit of scholarly interest, a high quality of character, a fine loy- alty and cooperation on the part of all—students and faculty, as I beuieve there will be, I know this will be a happy and successful year for all of us, and for our Alfred.
Boothe C. Davis, President.
VARSITY TAKES OPENER FROM DEFIANCE, 6-0
"Mud" Boylan Scores Touchdown
On Twenty-Five Yard Run
A flashy Alfred combination, spas- modically clicking, holding in the pinches, fumbling and being penalized, came through in an inexperienced but promising style to down Defiance University with a 6-0 win in the open- ing game at Merrill Field, Saturday night.
Lacking twice' the final drive when within scoring distance distance, this spirited Alfred eleven gave stocky
HEAD COACH GALLOWAY
HARRIERS HANDICAPPED BY LOSS OF VETERANS
With but one regular back, Coach McLeod has been forced to develop a new and untried team with material that lacks the natural ability evidenced in members of past teams. Red Java, star on last years' Frosh track team, seems the most likely prospect and protends to be a man of excellent calibre.
As yet the team ,has had no time trials and has solely been working on developing form and endurance. A series of developing calisthenics fol- lowed by jogs of varying distances has constituted the main training schedule. Undoubtedly, this week the novices will have their first taste of speed as a preliminary tryout for the coming Geneva meet at Alfred.
Wessells, Roe and Cibella, who showed signs of promise on past teams will probably be good running mates for TenBroeck and Java, the nucleus of the squad. Comstock, Parente, and Riley are working up towards the leaders and should be running with them soon.
VARSITY ELEVEN POINTS TO ROCHESTER GAME
With a victory under their belt, the Alfred varsity eleven is undergoing an intensive training schedule for a tough game with Rochester Univer- sity at Rochester this Saturday.
Coach Galloway is polishing off the rough spots that showed up in the
"Mud" Boylan perfect interference in the third quarter for a 25-yd. run off right end for the winning touchdown.
Twice Denance' threatened to cross Alfred's goal line. Twice the Purple and Gold presented a solid wall and repelled the invaders. Baffled, De- fiance resorted to a passing offense in the final play that was easily broken, up by the alert Saxon .backs.
Both teams showed clearly the lack of seasoned form by frequent penali- ties, fumbles, and losses. Defiance might be characterized as more con- sistent but lacking in drive and ground gaining plays. Spectacular but rag- ged was the type of play displayed by the Saxon squad.
Alfred received the kickoff on their thirty yard line, but failed to run it back. After two line bucks, the home eleven fumbled but recovered the ball.
Hanson kicked the ball to the center of the field. Returning the pigskin to their 48-yd. line. Defiance was thrown for a 5-yd. loss when their line gave on the first play. Alfred then gave a first down to Defiance on a fifteen-yd. penalty for holding. A similar penalty gave the invaders five yards, after two plays with no gain.
Then Adessa broke through and nailed the slow starting Defiance back. Re- ceiving the punt on the thirty-five yard ine Merck made ten yards. After a fumble with a loss of five yards, Boy- lan cracked the line twice for about ten yards. Clark called Hanson back for a beautiful punt to the twenty-one yard line. Goedal received and follow- ed up with a nine-yard gain through center on the first play. Bre^kin^
through, Adessa, smeared the next pay and forced Defiance to punt.
After a three-yard gain through the tackle hole, Clark reeled off a flashy end run for 26 yards. At the quarter, Hanson tried a pass to Adessa that was knocked down.
Defiance signalled for a free catch of Hanson's punt and chose to follow with a free kickoff. Firestein ran the opening game and is working towards j k i c k o f f i |b a c k to. t l h e opponents 33-yd.
coordinating and balancing the teams' play.
Opening with Williams College, last week, Rochester scored a moral vic- tory when they held them to a 6-0 victory. Playing out of their class, Rochester showed in this game a type of football that will raise problems for the Purple and Gold color bearers.
Ths week's practice should see Rudy Cohen back working out with the team. However, it is very doubtful whether he will be able to play in this week's game. Red Wallace will still remain on the sidelines, but this is offset by the talent that was dis- played in the backfleld in the opener last week.
Tapering off towards the end of the week, the squad should round into a form that will be a great improve ment over their last try. Retaining their fine spirit and developing better Morclination shoud be the key to vic- tory for Alfred at Rochester.
"MEETING AND SOLVING NEW PROBLEMS"
TO BE DISCUSSED IN CHAPEL PROGRAM
Regular Chapel began on Monday, gress, always pay. He pointed out Septemlber 26th, at ten o'clock in Ken-
yon Memorial Hall. The increased interest in Chapel during the past tihree years with the general whole- some attitude toward this oldest of Alfred traditions has been most en- couraging to faculty
alike. Beginning the
and students college year, Chaplain McLeod spoke on the ride through life, stressing the importance of realiaing that it can never be a free ride. There are some people who steal a ride, some ride on a pass, some ride half fare, but those who con- tribute something to the world's pro-
that too many people, as described by H. C. Wells, go through life, "fudging and evading and side-stepping, till their first contact with elemental realities is the cold sweat of their death bed."
Tuesday's subject was "O What a Difference," in which the Chaplain pointed out the difference between those who win and those in win in life. The subject of the talks for the remainder of the week were announ- ced as dealing with the' general sub- ject, "Meeting and Solving New Prob- lems". ]
line. A beautiful criss cross with Boylan carrying the ball, netted Alfred 21 yards. Two no gain plays were followed by a fumible to nullify the stands plea for a touchdown. De- fiance punted to Alfred, but soon re- gained the pigskin on a second fum- ble. Failing to make a first down, Defiance kicked deep into Alfred ter- ritory. With a few minutes of play Alfred opened witih an aerial attack that failed completely. An exchange of intercepted passes completed the half with no score for either team.
Hanson opened the second half withi a long kickoff deep into Defiance terri- tory. Following an exchange of punts, Defiance punted to Henning to start the Saxons on their victory drive.
Henning tore through three Defiance backs for a substantial fifteen-yard gain, bringing the ball to the 28-yard line. Clark gained four yards around right end. Then, "Mud" Boylan skirt- ed right end with perfect interference for the winning touchdown.
Defiance received the kickoff with a resolve to win the game. A pass from Rex to Fowler gave Defiance a first down and started their drive for a touchdown. Rex, star Defiance back, worked the ball up to the twenty- yard line on a long end run. Alfred then held while Defiance missed pass after pass. The quarter ended after Hanson kicked out of danger from the ten yard-line.
After another exchange of punts with a slight gain for Defiance. De- fiance intercepts a pass on Alfred's twenty-four-yard line. Two completed passes gave the1 invaders a first down and put them wdthin scoring range.

Welcome Freshmen
The Fiat Lux as the medium of student expression welcomes all you new students to Alfred University as share holders in a font of learning with an atmosphere of tradition, your heritage from its founders. Your being here signifies that you welcome the opportuni- ties offered by Alfred. Take care lest you forget the high resolve of your entering.
A Ford followed a Lincoln down the street; a Freshman follow- ed a Senior. The first example typified the highest class of auto- motive science in contrast to the lowest; the latter contrasted the development of a college student. You Freshmen are not Lincolns yet. Few Seniors can be classed as Lincolns. It is only through taking advantage of all your opportunities and being willing to learn from some one else that you will attain the desired class.
Past experiences have shown that the Frosh who thinks the momentum of his success in high school will carry him to new heights in college has either changed his theory or ended at the bottom of the pile. Alfred depends on you for new ideas, enthusiasm, renewed vigor, and faithful service. Alfred gives you friendship, seasoned wisdom, developed personalities, wholesome traditions, and calm conservatism. Blend yours and ours and you will be the Lincoln of tomorrow.
Friendly Rushing
Once more the old fraternity problem has come upon the horizon, but in a more amiable fashion than in previous years. As yet, all rushing has been strictly within bounds and the fraternities have been on the most friendly basis in years. It is the Fiat's sincere wish that this may continue; but, if it changes, the Fiat Lux is going to back up the Interfraternity Council in exposing any unethical rushing regardless of who it hurts.
For you Freshmen, the Fiat is printing a copy of the Inter- fraternity Council rules taken from the Frosh handbook. We ask 3*oii to familiarize yourself with these rules so that you may report infractions and cooperate with us in exposing infractions. Many of you are going to be fraternity men. If you help this year, it will make the problem easier in future years. Let's continue rushing on a friendly basis!

CLASS OF 1936
Freshman Week Finds One Hundred and Ninty-Five in Attendance The class of 1936, the "Centennial Class," has been gradually gathering in Alfred since last Friday and at the opening of the program for Freshman Week, on Tuesday morning, one hun- dred and ninety-five were in atten- dance. Many more were expected as the acceptances exceeded the two hundred and fifty mark; the adminis- tration are confident of a final regis- tration which will total over two hundred.
The first meal of the college year was served to the Freshmen at the two dormitories on Monday evening.
At that time it was learned that no accommodations are left for girls in the Brick and only two half rooms are still vacant in Bartlett Dormitory.
The faculty and other members of the administration have been most kindly meeting the incoming trains which bore the many a future "wearer of the green". The last term hardly holds all the odium it has been born in the past, since the length of time for wearing the "Frosh Badge" has been shortened, and furthermore the girls will appear in green berets rather than caps.
On Monday afternoon, conditioned students were offered the opportunity to take examinations to remove the low standing. At the same time the boys in attendance a t the Freshman camp for men returned.
The formal program of Freshman Week was inaugurated by a chapel service held in Kenyon Memorial Hall at eight thirty on Tuesday morning, Chaplain James C. McLeod officiating.
Following this service, President Boothe C. Davis spoke to the assem- bled group on "This College of Ours">
The announcements of other events which would take place during the day were made then.
At ten in the morning the Freshmen divided; the young ladies going to the Education Lecture rooms in Alumni Hall, where Dean Dora K. Degen spoke to them on "Alfred's Social Ideals,"
and the hoys remaining in Kenyon Memorial Hall to listen to talks by Dean J. Nelson Norwood and Irwin A Conroe, Assistant Dean.
A recess of half an hour was allow- ed from ten forty-five until eleven fifteen; the Freshmen then reconvened for addresses on "The Trasition from College to High School" by Dr Gilbert W. Campbell and Dean J. Nel son Norwood.
In years past it has been customary to have a picnic lunch served to Freshmen and faculty alike in the pine grove, but this procedure was omitted this year since both dormi>
tories were filled and had begun the serving of meals.
Tuesday afternoon was devoted to examinations; the principal test being one to grade the standard of each Freshman's command of English; this test has become a prerequisite for each Freshman and no one can regis- ter without having taken it.
Wednesday's program was preceded by a chapel service; then the staff of the Ceramic College, led by Dean E.
M. Holmes, presented an outline of the courses to be offered in that field.
At nine-thirty Dean Norwood, Dr.
Campbell, Dr. Murray J. Rice and Professor H. O. Burdick spoke in be-
half of the courses offered in the Lib- eral Arts College, for both degrees, either Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science.
Following a short recess, Dean Nor- wood and B. Claire Green, of the class of 1932, president of the Student Sen- ate for the coming year, spoke to the group on "Student Traditions, Institu-
| tions and Government".
The last speakers dealt with the problem of much interest to all the students: "Alfred's Athletics". The coaches of football and cross country, John Galloway and James C. McLeod respectively, and the Director of Ath- letics, James A. McLane, developed this topic.
The afternoon was devoted to regis- tration for the Freshmen, each mem- ber of the class had to have his or her picture taken before going through the registration procedure.
The combined efforts of the Alfred University Christian Association re- sulted in a very enjoyable reception to Freshmen and faculty members at the Susan Howell Social Hall on Wed- nesday evening. The presidents, Ruth Kenyon and Donald Stafford, of both organizations, spoke briefly to the gathering; welcoming the new class and presenting to them the ideals and the work of the Christian Associa- tions.
ALFRED-BUFFALO AUTUMN PICNIC
A very large and successful fall picnic of Western New York, Alfred Alumni was held Saturday evening, Sept. 10th, at Niagara Falls, in the State Park, with an attendance of nearly eighty. Mrs. Robert W. Fuller, president of the Association, was in charge. Several hours were spent in : pleasant visiting. When it is stated that the edibles represented the skill of a number of well-known "Alfred"

Cooperative Shows
Alfred can have its co-operative talkin picture shows again this year if everyone will get behind the pro- ject and support it, according to in- formation learned today from Dr.
Gilbert Campbell, who so efficiently conducted the programs last year.
Because insurance rates have been raised on Alumni Hall, where the shows are run, it is necessary to as-
sure enough money in advance before) the programs can be run off. This means 600 tickets must be sold.
Don't wait for solicitors to see you.
Drop into Ellis' Drug Store today and buy as many tickets as you possibly can.
Anybody can use the ticket. Think of somebody who will use it gladly if you don't care for shows. Fifteen shows out of thirty or more during the college year. You may bring fourteen of your friends and use the whole ticket one night. But don't wait. -•—-

Quoting one of the brothers, "when I arrived here two weeks ago, I weighed 221 lbs.—now I weigh 212—
am I in condition?" We answer no—
you guess who.
Carry on Varsity.
Theta Kappa Nu
We wish to welcome the class of 1936, into our midst. Hope they do their bit to make this year a great success.
Congratulations Varsity! Atfl re- member Rochester is next.
Boy Oh Boy it's great to see so many back for another year, and here's hoping this term is just a little bit better than the past.
It sure looked like aid times last Saturday, when so many of our Alumni were back to the game.
We are pleased that "Hi" Holden and "Hal" Hucut are to be with us again.
Doc Waller says it's going to be great to start eating "Ma" Martin's famous food again.
FROSH COACH

Kappa Psi Upsilon Welcome to Alfred, Freshmen!
Great game Varsity, we're backing you to win next week at Rochester.
Alumni brothers, Strate, Howbridge, Olander, Zsehiegner, Amento and Bar- ton came back to see the game and talk over old times with the boys.
Mr. and Mrs. Cole and Mr. and Mrs.
Kuhl were alumni guest for dinner Sunday.

Delta Sigma Phi
We wish to welcome all the Fresh- men and new students to Alfred.
Since the training table has ended at the .house, things are beginning to look the same again. The "wolves"
kept the food from being wasted any- way.
It looked like "homecoming day" at the house, Saturday. Alumni to visit us were: "Ken" Nichols, Dcuth Cripps, Lou Obourn, Jack McGraw, Bob Hoehn, "Pete" Shaner, Pat Per- rone, Alec Lippman and Gus Larson.
They sure got a kick out of seeing Alfred on the long e.nd of the score.
Great game Varsity!
Kappa Nu Okay '32-'33. Let's go!
We opened the season with a swish- ing of brooms and a slapping of paint brushes.
Glad to see "Billy" R. back again.
Brothers Bacher and Rind paid us a visit this week-end; they assisted in the arrangment of our suites.
