WRESTLING TEAM LEAVES TOMORROW TO MEET FORMIDABLE OPPONENTS
PI ALPHA OPENS FORMAL RUSHING
SEASON BY PARTY
FOOTLIGHT CLUB SELECTS UNDERCLASS PLAYS FOR PRESENTATION MARCH
On Thursday night the Alfred wrest- ling team will meet the strong Franklin-Marshall team at Lancaster, Pa. This meet is perhaps the hardest one in the entire schedule. Lane's protogees must do some excellent
•wrestling to best the team that al- ready boasts victory over the Army a n d Illinois.
Following this meet, the grapplers will jump over to New York to take on Brooklyn Poly T e c , which has been undefeated so far this year. On Saturday night, the team will meet University of Pennsylvania at Phila- delphia. If the trip does not have any particularly bad effects, the Alfred team stands a more than even chance for success, as it is in good condition after its win over Mansfield.
The line-up is expected to be about t h e same, unless the tryouts this week bring about some unexpected changes.
It is doubtful whether or not Fell! will be able to make the trip, not having fully recovered from his illness. The team will leave Wednesday.
Invitation Committee Is Selected By Seniors
Plans for class day and commence- ment invitations were discussed at the last Senior meeting held Feb. 13.
The commencement invitation com- mittee consists of Milton Burdick, James Sanchez, Harlan Milks and Al- fred Titsworth.
At a previous meeting, Margaret j Hutchinson was elected chairman of j the gift committee.
New Semester Finds
Campus Court Active
Tlie most pious and honorable mem- bers of the campus court were grieved almost to tears by the sentences which they had to impose on the members of the Frosh Class, who were so un- lucky as to stray from the straight and narrow path. One would never have believed from appearances in the court room Wednesday night, that the ill-fated had ever heard of cam- pus rules or the honor system.
Hector Armour and Richard Travis were sentenced to a sound reprimand- ing at the hands of the jury who took time out for some violent but neces- sary exercise.
Roger Stuart was given a suspend- ed sentence for trodding on the grass which is held sacred by upper class- men.
LeTourneau and Benza were sent- enced to wear baby bonnets for fail- ure to tip their hats. LeTourneau had the slight misfortune of being caught in court wearing white socks. Due to the rather complicated circumstances
he received a slight sentence which consisted of wearing black stockings over his trousers, said stockings to be held up by pretty red ribbons.
Frederick Greeves was reported for disorderly conduct but since the case was outside the jurisdiction of the Campus Court, no action was taken.
For three weeks, the first one which;
started Thursday, February 13th, for- Ceramic Society Elects Dele-

COHON HEADS
NEWLY ORGANIZED FRATERNAL CLUB
With the organization, by eleven students, of a new fraternal club to be known as Kappa Eta Phi, democ- racy on the Alfred campus takes an- other forward step. The club, which is under the presidency of Irwin J.
Cohon '30, stands for friendship, prac- tice of the ideals of Alfred University, stimulation of scholarship, obedience to authority and promotion of the principles of true manhood. The club
other than the delegates mentioned, will attend the convention. Profes- sors Amberg and Merritt and Doctor C. F. Binns will be in attendance.
The meeting was not well attended.
i A speaker was present who would have given an address, but due to the i small group present, the talk was j called off.
The next meeting of the Society
| will be held at 7:30 P. M., Tuesday,
| the 25th, in Kenyon Hall. At this meeting the delegates will give their reports. Everyone is welcomed.

The convention began Sunday and will end Thursday. The convention head- quarters a*e in the Royal York Hotel in Toronto.
Last Sunday the visiting ceramists were registered and later given a trip through the Royal Ontario Museum and through the city of Toronto. A tea and reception in the Royal York Hotel in the afternoon, and a lecture and music recital in the eve- j ning completed the day's program, j Monday morning the convention met I in general session. In the afternoon, | papers on several phases of the cer amic industry were read. At an Al- fred banquet at the York Hotel many alumni and undergraduates met to complete the day by renewing ac- quaintances and discussing Alfred
University in the ceramic field.
Today and tomorrow there are di- visional meetings in tne several fields of ceramics while the convention ends Thursday with visits to the ceramic plants in and about Toronto.
The following faculty members are attending the convention, Dr. Chas.
F. Binns, Professors Harder, Amberg, Meritt, Dr. Rice and Miss Ruth Whit- ford.

Prospective members of the New- man Club, this week received letters from Rev. Chas. E. McHugh of Blessed Sacrament Church, Andbver, who has taken up the matter of religious facil- ities for Catholic students at Alfred j University, with Bishop Turner of Buf- falo. The letters contained question- naires which were to be filled out and returned, so that a complete check of conditions might be made and statis- tics compiled. Upon receipt of these letters it is expected that Rev. Mc- Hugh will definitely arrange matters with a committee of Alfred students who will call a general meeting in the near future.
A constitution for the club has been drawn up and it is assured that the club will affiliate with the Federation of College Catholic Clubs

1929-1930 the finest year in Alfred's progress! We, who criti- cize iconoclastically, but nevertheless well, look with collegiate pride upon the advances made by our Alma Mater, during this school year.
This years brings us the realization of a new dormitory for men, an addition, which necessitates the habitation of a new part of the campus; the Alfred University social center is an assured addition;
sensible hope forcasts an addition to the Ceramic School; a new coach comes to us, whose work (be it better or worse than that of his predecessors) will psychologically benefit Alfred; a new frater- nity adds to the democracy of the campus; a Newman Club provides religious consideration for Catholic students and aids in growth of registration; new scholarships are added; new religious enthusiasm and growth arrive through a student of theology, who places God and true brotherhood before denomination. What an estimable rec- ord to place before devotees of education!
The record is a tribute to the work and unceasing efforts of President Davis and to the men, who financially or otherwise, have placed a milestone on the road to a "Bigger and Better Alfred."
Students! Cherish and talk about this progress. Faculty! Think twice before you pass judgment on the things which may detract from our rapid upward work toward Progress, Freedom and Com- monsense,
Lsst We Forget
The general laxity displayed this year by the Department of Campus Administration and the Campus Court in checking up on
"Freshman ways," causes one to wonder whether the Frosh class will miss the sport and entertainment of a Freshman initiation as did the present Junior Class. This harmless hazing sponsored usual- ly by the Senior Class, marks a milestone in the life of the Alfred student and this tradition should not be allowed to take its place with others which have been cast off.
Let us hope that plans will soon be drawn up for an affair of this nature which will provide wholesome enjoyment and relaxation for the entire campus.
Editor Fiat Lux:
The dictionary defines gossip as conversation dealing personally with other peoples' personal affairs.
We have noticed during our sojourn in Alfred that this vice is exceeding- ly prevalent. It is unfortunaely not limited to the undergraduate body.
James Allen in his book "Out of the Heart" gives several steps in the at- taining of a higher life. One he says is the overcoming of slander. Slander consists in repeating or inventing evil reports about others, in exposing or [ magnifying the faults of others and ! in introducing unworthy insinuations, j
Gossip consists in talking about the private affairs of others and in en- gaging in aimless and irrelevant con- versation. There has been much of this sort of thing lately on Alfred's Cam- pus, and sorry to tell it is not alone individuals, but whole organizations who have profaned virtue by such a devil.
It would be well for the incoming classes to remember an old French saying—"Do not trust that man there, he is a blabber."
During the last few months there has been a veritable deluge of gossip and slander. Nothing has been done to curb this tittle-tattle. Drinking is taboo in Alfred, even in the privacy and sanctity of one's apartment. Stu- dents are called to the Administra- tion Offices and roundly berated for this act of drinking.
Students and organizations are al- lowed to circulate the most ridiculous tattle, the most baudry prattle con- cerning other individuals and organ- izations and the Administration, Stu- dent Life Committee and the Inter- fraternity Council sit supinely down and allow reputations and happiness to be ruined and cast into the stink- hole of notoriety by malefactors, who do worse than the drinker of high- balls in their damning of character and of souls. Truthfully may one say of our Alfred Campus in this respect—
"Beauty, Truth and Verity, Grace in all Simplicity, Here enclos'd in cinders lie."

—' Those Tuition Bills
Tuition bills again bring to our minds the questions of moral contracts and fairness.
Some consideration should be given we believe to the disgruntled members of the upperclasses, particularly the Seniors whose great- est grievance lies in the ever-increasing cost of tuition. The Class of 1930, entered into a moral contract with the University in 1926, by paying a tuition fee of $180.00. Since then, it has been unable to stop the advance of this item until it has reached a total expense of
$300.00 per annum. All classes justly feel that the tuition prices should remain constant for one's entire college career. If such in- creases are to be made, they should be imposed upon the first regis- tration of each succeeding class. —-

Editor, Fiat Lux—
We have noted of late the advances which our University is making and are well pleased with them. We feel however that we should offer a few pertinent suggestions which may add to our progress or at least keep it where it is.

plated. From the rumors, we are worried, for many of them center about the loss of a man who has caused Alfred and its surrounding towns to think. One college depart- ment was actually crippled some time ago by the loss of a professor who knew 'what was what'. Let us care- fully consider all the factors in mak- ing faculty changes and make only!
those which will benefit us materially.
The other suggestion is 'Don't Al- fredize the Alfred Faculty'. If we will look through our college cata- logues we will see that this is actually happening. We have no kick with the faculty as it is, but let us widen out I and gather the ideas of several schools instead of a few when we pick our next faculty members.

SECOND TIME 20-11
Coach Heer's Purple quintet ran wild against St. Stephens in the local gym Saturday night and rolled up a score of 43-20 by the time the gun sounded at the end of the game. The Purple jumped into the lead at the start and were never threatened by the invaders. Alfred led at the half 27-9.
St. Stephens was unable to check the scoring of the local team when Coach Heers injected his second team into the fray, every man on the squad seeing action before the game ended.
Captain McGraw was the individual high scorer of the game, making five baskets and one free throw for a total of eleven points. Steele ran him a close second with three baskets and a pair of free tosses for eight points.
Wenger, MacFadden, and Penner each collected five points on two baskets and a free toss. Lenley, captain of the St. Stephens outfit, was the out- standing man for the invaders, scor- ing seven points on two baskets and three free throws.

The Alfred wrestlers journeyed to Mansfield Friday night and defeat- ed Gullo's aggreation for the second time this season, by a margin larger than that of the first meet. Rudy D'Elia, the little 115 lb. ace of the Purple and Gold started things off well by winning over Cordan by a time advantage of 5 minutes 50 sec- onds. Jimmy Sanchez, 125 pounder won in a time advantage over Barteau.
Captain John Hambel, Coach JJc- Lane's consistent performer, won in
a fall over Gould. Grantier lost hisfirst match of the season in the extra period of a furious battle, by the slim margin of 1 minute 57 seconds ad- vantage.

SPORTLIGHTS
Coach McLane's porteges in basket- ball and wrestling came through Fri- day night. The basketeers came out of their slump to beat Geneseo and the grapplers overwhelmed Mansfield.
Taken all in all, it was a busy week- end for the yearlings.
The Varsity basketeers looked im- pressive in their double win last week and they still have hopes that either Niagara or Rochester will treat Buf- falo to a beating, in which case Al- fred would be on top of the Confer- ence heap, providing the Purple is able to repeat its victories over Ham- ilton, Clarkson, and Niagara. Two weeks remain on the schedule which has thus far been a success for the locals. At the present time the Al- fred five has won two more games than the teams of the last two years combined did. It looks as though the basketball team is starting out to make 1930, Alfred's year.

Former winter days approached Al- fred with a vigor and ferocity far ex- ceeding the bluster of present genera- tions. The theory that our winter days are becoming more and more mild seems to coincide with the frigid history of Alfred.
In the early days of March 1900, students and townspeople arose hard- ly believing their eyes when they saw 18 inches of snow piled high in drifts so that to get out one had to wade waist deep.
Roads were blocked for miles around, convenient snowshovels and tractors being at premium the people resorted to the bob sled on the back of which was attached a huge heavy iron kettle. The kettle which was usually the one they used when but- chering, packed the snow down rather than shoving it to one side.
When the soft white blanket was shoveled from the streets it was piled to half the height of the store win- dows. Tall people had the advantage in that they were the only ones who could view the outside world—and even they had to strain themselves to the extent of their elasticity.
