Homecoming Is A Happy Event for all but Hobart

by Alan

"What a game!" That was the resounding phrase echoed as the Student body and 1000 aluimni filed out of jam-packed Merrill Field after the Alfred Saxons blanked the Hobart Statesmen in the tra- ditional Homecoming football encounter.

The weather was clear, bright ad abnormally warm as the alumni of Alfred University arrived for a weekend •yphlch ran the ga- mut of functions both on and off the campus. The three day weekend witnesses everything from ear- fbending about the good oil' days to formal meetings; social get-to- gethers to whooping it up at the fraternities and sororities.

Friday morning found many of the alu/mni at a meeting of' the Ceramic Association of New York.

The discission held in Binns-Mer- Till Hall was conducted toy four speakers who were recently overseas. With these four speakers forming a nuclus the theme was

*lOonsideratfin of Ceramic Devel- opments Taking Place Abroad."

On Saturday there was a battery Of meetings h e l d ' a t Susan Howell Social Hall. The first Was an Al- fred Fund Excutive Meeting. The

Alumni Association Council also met. These meetings were followed iby an Admissions Seminar for Interested Alumni.

At two o'clock the alumni scat- tered throughout the stands of Merrill Field s'aw the pre-game parade swing into the stadium.

lOomprised of freshmen and members of the six fraternities and four soroities along with many of the other members of the student body, the procession walked around the field to the Alfred root- ing section. Displayed around the stands were many banners and themes ' created especially for Homecoming. Two awards were presented. On was won iby Tau

Mandel

Delta Phd and the other by Theta Theta Chi.

Attention then turned to the field where Alfred was playing liost to Hobart. The two teams thave been meeting ever since 1899. The purple and gold, which has not had much luck With Ho- bart in the past, iby means of rough defensive work and a lightening fast aerial attack wo 13-0. This was the 3.3rd encounter ibetween the Statesmen and the Saxons.

The series now stands at 22 wins for Hobart, 8 for Alfred, and 3 ties.

At five o'clock a buffet dinner was held in Men's Gym. This was followed by an Alumni Dance held in the Campus Center. A good and entertaining four piece comlbo was the highlight of the evening. After the game parties which lasted all night were held at the different fraternities on campus, and in addition to the Alumni Danice provided ample opportunity for the alumni to socialize.

To posterity it was another college Homecoming, but to those a t Alfred it was something special and a success.

Correction!

Contrary to figures publish- ed last week, the total regis- tration of Alfred University now stands at 1,486. This In- cludes 1,204 undergraduates in three schools, plus graduate and special students.

Toot!

The Alfred University Band, under the direction of Richard Lanshe, rehearses on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 and Saturday at 2:00, in Howell Hall. Any- one still Interested in Joining the band ©an report for a try- out at the next scheduled re- hearsal.

Nixon Nips Kennedy In Alfred Student Poll

The FIAT LUX polled 506 stu- dents ais to their choice of the tgwo presidential candidates; Nix-

on and Kennedy.' Vice Presidet Nixon "won" the election by a slight margin. The following is a percentage breakdiwn of the poll.

It criss-crosses over many varia- bles and produces many interesting facts.

The number of "voters' who are undecided is significant. We felt that the lack of enthusiasm for either candidate when the poll was conducted is worthy of mention although this is not brought out specifically in the statistics. From their statements it is evident that

most of the "voters" do not feel strongly about either candidate, and in the end, If they were able to vote, they would be voting against the man they do not wish rather than in a positive manner for the candidate of their choice.

Many people would not vote for President and Vice President when they .got to the polls. This is an indication in our estimation of a possible silent veto of the choice of candidates.

Amongst the students voting for Nixon there was a great deal of sentiment expressed for the fact that they wished that Lodge was

the presidential candidate instead of Nixon. Over one third of tha students backing Kennedy wara against Lyndon Johnson.

There was a great lack of aware«

ness and sensitivity as to the it- sus and their importance, In the

! campaign. Many people seemed to

¡have made their preferece without their own prior investigation.

Russell Views Pres. Election;

Hits Candidates' Half Truths

by Dr. Willis C. Russell

In these days of such interesting events as; the meeting of the Uni- ted ^Nations General Assembly with the unusual if not unlqe quality of its representatives and their actions, the meeting in the World Series of the perennial Goliath of the baseball diamond with the ob- scure David, the long anticipated rise to power on the football grid- iron of some teams from upstate New York; It may 'be remarkable that on the Alfred campus, as in the rest of the United States w e find time and energy to devote our quadrennial fracas In the political arena. As a member of a combination staff in the fields of history and political science I find

¡myself both stirred and disturbed (by the political struggles of the Presidential election years.

I was born and brought up as a New England Yankee and tradi- tionally such a background is sup- posed to develop a non-emotional approach to all the problems of our society—If one is emotionally affected it is slightly gauche to allow the world to realize the weakness. Training in history, the events of the past and their inter- pretation, does not always lead Its devotees to agreement on either the facts or their fttgnifioance but its true apostles are usually sincere and honest In their ap- praisals. It is disconcerting to the Ivy - towered, contemplative and impersonal student of the past to find his emotions stirred in the present conflict.

'For some weeks the United States has been engaged in Its election

year departure from intellectual sanity and moral balance. Charac- ter assassination, misrepresenta- tion, haK-trutbs and out-right lies are the present order of the day in the political field. Two young men, whose school records were sdhodastiically outstanding, whose war records leave no question of their devotion to their country, and whose careers in 'politics have been so able as to secure them nominations for the highest office In our government, aire engaged In slandering each others character.

In his nomination acceptance speech Kennedy I presume a nor- mally decent young man, felt called upon to question the integrity of his opponet and received wild applause from the convention floor. Nixon now is very regretful

at the lack of courage and honesty in his opponent's iflailure to present the same program In the South as in the North. There may be some basis for these charges but some thoughts about "bearing false witness: and' "let him who is without sin icast the first stone" might be reconsidered by these over eager young aspirants. As a whole, history proves that all our presi- dents have served with integrity and courage,, regardless of their prior conduct and associations, and that their errors In office have not been due to lack of courage or to low moral standards. I am quite confident the next Presi- dent, like his predecessors, with the light of history shining on all his actions will serve his country to the best of his ability.

Perhaps the voter should Ignore

this character vilification and worry about the half-truths, mis-

representations and outright lies.

Ever since a very able and honest man with the statistics, Alfred E-

Smith ,used the remark 'ILet's look at the record" many candidates have treated that request dis- gracefully. In the early Issues of the "Great Debate" we heard and saw that appeal in action. Some of their statistical looks at the record' are certainly impossible to prove or disprove.

'Nixon tells us that his program will cost a few billions more than the present budget while Kennedy's will cost ten billion more dollar's than his. I cannot believe that either program is well enough developed to have an accurate cost

sheet and I have a conviction that before the campaign is over each of these ambitious young men is going to have promised to finance so much progress that no Congress will honor the requests of his program.

'In the first debate Kennedy's

•record had 17 million Americans going to bed hungry. He said be was very unhappy a t that statistic as was doubtless his eqvfaflly humane opponent. If this was anything more . thian a half-truth based on an estimate that 17 million Americans push back from the table for dieting reasons the voters are entitled to t h e details.

We surely have the food, the hu- manltarlanism and the welfare or- ganizations to 'better such a situ- ation now rather than to allow this hunger to continue. The second

Mr. Con ley Speaks On

"Journalism And Youth"

P i Delta Epsilon, introduced as its guest speaker, Mrs. Charles Conley at the second assembly program of the year on October 13. Mr. 'Conley spoke on "Journal, ism and Youth and its Relation- ship With the Modern World." His speech consisted to three parts.

First, he gave a short summary on the definition and Importance of journalism. "Journalism,' he stated, "Is the profession of col- lecting and publishing periodical news." This process plays a very important part In society because the choice of news and editorial material influence puibllc opinion.

It is also used - as a medium b e tween a manufacturer and consum- er. The one big advantake of journalistic writing Is that all ¡information is up-to-date.

Second, Mr. Conley pointed out that there a r e many difficulties in the journalistic field that must be overcome. Since our thinking hab- its and purchasing decisions are constantly being Influenced', journalism is becoming a new menace to our free-thinking societu. This

"Depth Approach" uses a technique of motivative research, or find- ing out what motivates people to make choices. It is up to our gene- ration to find waps and means to harness the Dept Approach. We must think before we buy and find a "foolproof" way to write fact without distortion. A journalist;

does not have the right to print what he desires if he Is planning to trick the public. He also canmot print his views if he Is reporting fact.

(Last, Mr. Conley asked, "what

motivated a person?" If a student memorizes a formula this does not make hi a mathematician. Ha needs to understand what he la doing. Thus, we must develop an inward sight. Man must have a purpose in life. When he finds his goal, then can he first develop into an individual who Is dedicated to the purpose of serving.

Alfred Honors ''Boss" Kenyon

President M. Ellis Drake an- nounced that another tradition

will be innovated this year a t tha Founder's Day Convocation at Al- fred University on October 20.

Each year, under the title of

"Alfred's Great," the University will recongnize one or / more per- sons who have been prominent In the history of the University, or alumni who have distinguished themselves in their profession or in their contributions to society.

T h e first to receive recognition wiill be William Colgrave Kenyon.

Known as "Boss" Kenyon, he was principal of the Select Sichool from 1839 until 1843, when the Neiw York State Board of [Regents chartered Alfred Academy. At that time, IMr. Kenyon became head of the Academy until in 1857,*

largely through his efforts. New York State chartered Alfred Uni- versity. From 1857 until his death in 1867, William Colgrave Kenyon served as Alfred University's first president.

UN Balance Of Power Shifts To The New Afro-Asian Bloc

by Ron Berger

The United Nations, born amidst t h e greatest struggle ever to en- velop mankind, is emerging with powers far greater than its crea- tors ever envisioned for it. Under the dynamic leadership of Secre- tary Dag Hammarskjold, the world organisation has come to regard a s its definite obligation the pres- ervation of order within the boun- daries of one nation.

But, when we speak of the United Nations, we must realize

that

this is no longer the same organization that was organized in San Francisco fifteen years ago.

Since that time, its membership has nearly doubled. It has been Bible to use military force effectively against aggressors. But most of all', the so-called balance of power within the General Assembly

¡has

shifted. No longer does the United States h'svve such a certain majority in the Assembly. The two

"foloc" Assemlbly no longer exists.

The newly independent nations j of Africa, just elected to member- Ship in the U.N., is the new force

to ibe reckoned with. The tiotal African group now stands at twen- ty-five, the largest geographical group in the U.N., and when combined with the Asiaji nations, they m a k e up almost 'half the total membership.

These nations lare not interested In joining East or West. They have no desire to "be drawn into the

conflict bfetiwieen the great powers." Rather, they tend to vote for their own interests, whether it m e a n s . voting against the West or voting with them.

With this setting, Mr. Kruoh- chev elected. to attend to the fifteenth session of the United Nations General Assemlbly. Un- doubtedly, he and his satellite henchmen hoped to make a big showing for the infant nations of Africa. His dalls for world peace, disarmament,- and top-level con- ferences resulted in the attendance of more than a dozen oheifs of (State, and prime ministers, including Eisenhower, MacMillan, Tito,. Nasser, Nkrum'ah, Castro, and Nehru.

With this select group for an audience, Mr. Krushchev then pro- ceeded to destroy himself ibetter thfan any American oratory ever could. F i r s t he annazed the entire Assembly with his fist-thumping and shouting during the speeches of the Western chiefs, especially during that df Rrime Minister MacMillian. To the young African nations, who if nothing else have

respect for orderly international processes, this was shocking behavior of the worst sort. In addition 16 this exhibition, Krushchev

demanded that the U.N. get out of the Congo, that it move its head- quarters out of New York to Gen- eva or even Moscow, and that it replace Mr. Hammarskjold with a three man commission that would be subject to Soviet veto.

T h e Red leader got nowhere.

Ghana, a nation upon which h e had been counting heavily, called for a vote of confidence in the Secretary General, which was im- mediately forthcoming by a solid 70-0 vote, with the Soviet bloc abstaining. The other ideas were also regarded as impractical or nothing more than propaganda.

It was then and there thiat the new U.N. proved itself. It could withstand the furious oratorical, persuasive onslaghts of the Red nations. The new nations indicated that they have the responsibility and perspicacity to recognize and accept Soviet propaganda for what

it is worth. They dramatically pointed out t o the rest of the world that they fully expected to take an active part in the U.N.

and in the world (which are now practically synonmous, since only Red China, Switzerland, Outer Mongolia, and the divided nations of Korea, Germany, and Vifet Nairn are not U.N. members.)

The most pressing external pro- blem at present is the Congo crisis. U.N. troops, in the Congo at the request of the then Prime Min- ister Lumumlba, have played a m'ost difficult role. They have been hampered by the utter lack of everything in the Congo, from statesmanship to garbage collect- ing. The troops were no sooner in the area then Lumumba started giving them ultimations and or-

ders to leave. His erratic leadership soon resulted in his dismissal by President Kasavubu, who has power seized from him by Army Colonel Mobutu. Each claims power; it is doubtful if any has had enough power to govern the country effectively. In the midst of this the U.N., trying to maintain order and preventing civil war, anarchy, and utter chaos.

. It , is obvious to everyone that it is only the presence of U.N.

•troops that keeps the Congo in the twentieth century. And it is also these troops that keep t b e com- munists from taking over. This is why Krushchev demands that the U.N. support Lumumba and that it stop abusing its powers, as he

calls the activities of the U.N.

force and Mr. Haimmarskjold. And this is why the U.N. must remain there.

The , U.N. must maintain its newly found power, for it is pro- ving to be not- only effective in preventing the expasion of com- munism, but it has the active ap- proval of the so-called neutralist nations of the world. That is why the 'Soviet premier's demand that the Secretary General b e replaced by a triuimverate (one representa- tive each from the East, West, and neutral bloc) can never be allowed to become a reality. For once it does, the United Nations wiill become the world's biggest debating society and will join the League of Nations in the annals of history.

Campus Chest Collects $50.00

The Campus Chest drive was started art the Homecoming gajme by the Student Senate. Members of the Senate, with the help of Al- pha Phi Omega and Cwens, collected nearly $50.00 This money, along with the proceeds from the Ugly Man Contest, and the Mov- ing-Up Day booths, will be sent to three charities selected by the Student Senate. Other projects, in.

eluding a dance, are being con- sidered to help raise the total amount off contributions.

From The IFC

by John Sprung IFC Publicity Director

This is the first of two articles to help acquaint the freshmen with the fraternity system at Alfred Uni- versity.

There is a misconception that fraternities are harmful to the student. The idea has arisen that membership in a fraternity conflicts with scholastic achievement. This is totally false. To illustrate this point, let me mention a few facts.

First, the overall fraternity mens index is higher than the overall mens index. Think about that for a moment. What it means is that as a group fraternity men achieve higher academic standing than non- fraternity men. This is not merely the result of last year's records.

This has been true on Alfred's campus as long as anyone can remem- ber. Individually, fraternity men make up a large percentage of the scholastic elite. For example, year in and year out most men accepted to med school, law school, and dent school are fraternity men.

Rushing will begin in several weeks. Its coming was heralded by the recent Interfraternity Council smoker,. When formal rushing begins, you freshmen will |>e visiting the six houses on campus and trying to choose the one for you. It is at this point that you must realize the fraternities are interested in you, and are looking for you to fill their pledge classes. They will not be able to tap, or make you a pledge unless you have your re- quired index. This index i s , a 0.7.

Don't start thinking about your index the week ' before preferential night. Start thinking about it now.

You must make a 0.7 in order to pledge. The six Alfred fraternities want men that will stay in school for four years. Fraternities want no part of you unless you make your index. V h e IFC forbids your being tapped without the 0.7. Fur- thermore, to become a brother you need either a cummulative index of 1.0, or two consecutive semesters of a 1.0. With both these facts in mind, you must grab hold of the reins and take it from there.

As you look around the Alfred campus, you see the part fraternity men play in campus affairs. The President, Vice-President and Trea- surer of the Student Senate are all members of fraternities. In es- sence, the fraternity men are the prime movers on campus. You will see them as leaders in everything from the St. Pat's board to the various campus clubs.

In concluding, I want to impress upon you that we of the IFC stand behind everything we say. We are

¡not ashamed and we sign everything we say. We have no quarrel

with those who do not choose to go fraternity because we feel that

it is up to the individual to make his' own dicision. If at times we get over-enthusiastic, bear with us.

It is" because we believe what we say. We also believe that it is un- fortunate that there are people who circulate anti-fraternity literature and to not sign their names. We don't know whether they are ashamed or afraid, but that Is not the way of the IFC. The Interfra- ternity Council of Alfred University believes in being honest and forth-

Dear Editor:

It is fraternity rushing time again at Alfred, and as usual several- irresponsible, discontented, maladjusted, indépendants have an- onymously mimeographed "guides"

for the freshmen. These guides have dennounced fraternities as deter- ants to study and just a place to imbide alcoholic beverages. These charges can be ably answered by the I.F.C. and the fraternities cannot answer properly, and that is the analyses made by these misinformed phonies on the, characteristics of the various houses.

The statements referring to the characteristics of the individual fraternities are oversimplified, misinformed, and prejudiced. The writers of this guide have shown their true colors, by either praising, ig- noring, or in one case vociferously damning the particular fraternities.

Their statements shoùld not be taken as facts, but opinions based on biased outside observations. Hbw can a person give an unbiased opinion on a fraternity when he has never been a member.

The damnation of a particular house because they "study little", can be disproven by the facts that they placed second in the scholarship trophy contest, and have several recognized outstanding scho- lars as memlbers. This does not

make the fraternity a smart frat, but neither do several members on probation indicate the stupididity of a house. The oversimplification

in some other instances, notably of fellowship, athletic ability and the like are merely observations that can be applicable to every house on campus.

In .accusing several houses of having "wild" parties the writers have again given the wrong impressions.

Chaparones are present at every party for the sole purpose of con- troling behavior and decorum. I have on several instances attened these affairs and have noted that the behavior at the most is friendly and loud, everyone is having a good time and the decorum of the guest can be described as well mannered.

Either the writers of these analyses have never been to one of these parties or are such prudish, unso- ciable creatures that they could not appreciate the congenial atmos- phere. The writers of these guides are apparently social nebbishes, who are reneging against the society that rejected them.

What irks me most about these guides is that they are anonymous.

Ño indication is given to indicate that the writers are faculty, administration, townspeople, fraternity men, or independents. This coward- ice is the most revolting thing concerning the whole affair.

These childish, misinformed wail- ings, by the discontented nebbishes of this campus, should be taken by the freshmen with a grain of salt. If the freshmen allows these guides to Influence him, the sound-

ness of his decisions may be affected. This of cource can ruin his so-

cial life at Alfred.

Joseph B. Rosenberg - An Indépendant From the Student Senate . , .

At this week's Student Senate meeting, President Jerry Pearl- man extended his (appreciation to the Senate and the student Ibodiy for the fine response to the Alfred University IStudent ¡Body Blood Bank Drive.

A report was given .by tile committee seeking to establish a Stu- dent Court. The committee reports thiat the local police and Dean Powers are in favor of a Student Court which will handle cases of student conduct. The proposal h a s been presented to President ¡Drake who has agreed to bring it before the advisory council of the Uni- versity this week.

T h e National Student Associa- tion, which sponsors foreign students' visits to American colleges, is planning to have a delegation visit Alfred in the near future. The National Student Association Com- mittee also sponsors a (book drive for Asian sohools. Any textbook printed a f t e r 1945 will be appre- ciated.

It is hoped thiat the student body will make Ithefir opinions known through their representatives or directly to the Senate.

ducted In a fashion similar to that of its namesake the football rally, for Which this reporter has an ex- culsive aversion due to a peculiar malady knoWn in medical circles as "sensititus Of the ear drums."

The noise was in fact so great as to cause undo reflection on the na- ture of political campaigns. It must of course be recognised as an es- sential ingredient, for how else could people etpress an electoria' preference to each other in the pre- election battle of wits but by noise ahd all the other vocal trappings.

So, elections are conducted with lots (and lots) of the aforemen- tioned. If they are tnádi to apiioar like popularity contests, perhaps

they should. After All, wiial else is there to concern one In the world nowadays aside from which candi- date is better looking, has a nicer wife, or spends less (not more) on clothes. These are all essential mat-

ters for the future of American society, and are of vital interest to all. Those .rhetorical uttering about such complex and incompre- hensible things as farm policy, government add to education and

Mr. K's tantrumental philandering»

are just like the scratchy chrome on an old Car, to be ignored and.

beaten about. A sad state of affairs?

Perhaps, but It all depends on how you look at things. . .

And that brings up another point.

Since this is primarily a lesson ib government, anyone wishing to

leave. . . It begins with the old story of text book repetition and complaint about the mammoth com- plexities of government and falli- bilities of bureaucratic red tape.

Due to lack of space, time, know- ledge and a few other things we'll take one minor, measely govern- ment agency to illustrate—a little place fondly known at the Library of Congress should suffice.

This organization with - its few million books, (somewhere In the teens), has every thing down to such a system that it now only takes them an hour on a busy day to find a book. "Why! How won- derful," you say, 'With all those books it must be a researchers dream home." Perhaps, but "ex- clusively," it seems more like a stu- dent's nightmare.

Since the books are housed in a labyrinth of stacks, where the uni- nitiated could easily find a use for the proverbial Cretian string, one must attempt to obtain a book through established procedures.

This involves the use of card cat- ologues that need a building alone unto themselves: request forms on which one signs away many things;

various conveyor belts; and the as- sistance of numerous personell—all to tell you the book is in use. It takes an Alfredlan a mere five min- utes to obtain the same information so for you this story should have a happy ending. Me? Maybe tomor- row wont be a busy day, maybe—

ALFRED, N. Y., October 1'5 — Merrill Field was a rainbow of purple and gold today as Alfred University launched its f i r s t home campaign. As a reporter, I found e seat offering me a birdseye view of the game.

During the first h a l f ' I was very distressed to see the team in purple and gold losing and fumbling time after time. It was onlly a f t e r the half time that I was informed t h a t our 'team was not wearing t h e purple and gold as I had suppos- ed and that we were actually "WilN- NING! Speaking about uniforms, I think they 'are really quite cool—

those chic loud clam diggers with t h e jersey tops and those wild Cap- t a i n Video helmets. I was told t h a t the players were suited but somehow I found i t hard to believe t h a t the ones who were nat- urally stuffed needed stuffing.

Number 44 on our team, one Alex Zoldan was a disgrace. He looked m o r e a n d more sloppy as the game w e n t on. His shirtJails were hang- ing out, he was perspired and his general appearance was both shocking and funny. H e played

Fiat Previews C. W. Post

very well though, I think. I was very happy to see t h a t Coach Yune.

vich was wearing a lovely suit and t h a t he had iloregone his suspend- ers in flavor of a belt and jacket.

One ruglation of the game amaz- ed me. This was the rule regard- ing penalties. If one team commit- ed an error, they w e r e asked if

they wanted to take or decline it.

Isn't t h a t silly asking someone if they w a n t to be punished? Actu- ally, the entire purpose and point of football surprises me. W h y would anyone w'ant to get involv- ed in a "game" where their chanc- es of getting h u r t are s o great.

Men were constantly falling, kick- ing, and hitting each other. I don't consider this good sports- manship or even sporty. In fadt,

I find it somewhat barbaric.

Despite the fact that I don't enjoy the actual game of football except for the lovely chrysanthe- mum I received, I was thrilled to see Alfred win for the f i r s t time since I entered college here. Does that mean t h a t we declined the fewest penalties?

On October 22nd, the Saxons meet the Green and Gold of C. W. Post here at Alfred for their f i f t h game of the year. T h i s is the first encounter between the Saxons and the Pioneers from Long Island, whose record last year was ; wins and 5 losses.

The Pioneers have veterans at every position, however, they murrt | rely heavily on the sophmores for j reserve strength. Their_line is big. I it is in fact the biggest line the Green and Gold have fielded to dale

The over all prospectus by posi- ; tion is as follows:

Ends—One of the strongest spots MacDonald will probably start, on the team. Starters will most ; Halfbacks—Depth, speed and exper- likely be veteran Bob Wittine, I ience add up to a well rounded

backfield. The halfbacks a r e small but they make up for size with speed and experience.

Fullbacks—This is the weakest position on the team and the Pio- I neer coach Dr. Roy Ilowit has

only one available man w ' t h ex- j perience.

j Quarterbacks—This position lacks Only four veterans remain depth and veteran Andy Brennon and transfer Marco Benedetto.

Center—Big (6'4"; 250 lb.) John Kendall leads the fie'.d of rcn- tenders. Kendall is a sophmbre.

Tackles — Veteran Pete Spangler leads the ¡charge for one of the leading slots. Behind Spangler a r e weterans Scott Gobbi and B 11 Welsh.

Guards-

a t these interior line slots. Sen- ior Vin Macci and Junior Chuck |

will have most of t h e weight on his shoulders. ,

After Hours

In football there was a fray between Bartlett and Cannon-Barre- si, in which Bartlett won 13-0. Can non^Barresi's t e a m consisted of Steve Levitt, Richie Giardano, Mickie Kaplan, John Moscowitz, Pete | Koenig and Ralph Masch&l.

Bartlett countered with their team of Les Kurian, Pete Radford, Ralph Strauss, Mike Paraziso, John Ret- tich.

In bowling, Cannon went into a match against Lambda 'Chi with 104 pin handicap, But this howev-

er did not help anuch as a well organized Lambda Chi squad beat them, winning three out of four games. In another maoh, Kap-

pa Nu beat Delta Sig, winning all four games. Joel Bender w a s top bowler for KN with over a 175 iaverage. In another match, Barre-

si lost t o Klan Alpine 4-0. Joe Green had a 223 game for Klan.

Dave Lutsic making an unsuccessful field goal attempt in the second quarter of the Hobart game.

Larrie Sweet crosses finish line against Cortland and Canisius.

From a dismal beginning as a high school harrier, Larrie Sweet h a s emerged as the number one man on the Alfred University cross-coun- t r y team. Despite his intial dis- appintment, he stuck with it and is now the proud owner of some 50 medals. Among his top honors are t h e Niagara cross-country championship in '58 aijd the Niagara dis- trict mile championship last year.

H e also placed 15th in last years IC4A meet in cross-country.

L a r r i e has no trouble getting in shape because he runs twice a day all year round. He has no special diet and claims the best way to stay in shape 'is to eat a lot and g e t - p l e n t y of sleep. When asked why he enjoys cross-country he had this to say; "I enjoy cross-country because of the people I meet and the places I go " he added" It relaxes me and gives me a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment"

h e concluded" I enjoy r u n n i n g w i t h Doc Tuttle because he's one of the guys".

Sweet's eventual goal is to r u n in t h e Olympics. He. has high hopes for

both the Varsity and Frosh teams this year but is disappointed in the lack of student, support. He urges the student body to show a iittle more interest a n d feels t h a t this oould be a great asset to the teams.

The Eastern Collegiate Ath*

letic Association has named Alex Zolden to second team all east and Joe Renwick, hon- orable mention.

Zoldan was chosen because of his play in the Union con- test and Renwick because of hks in the St. Lawrence game.

NSA Sponsors Student Visit

Patricia Ann Baker, a Senior more commonly known as "Trish", is serving Alfred students in her secolid y e a r ' o n t h e Student Sen- ate. As la psychology major, Trish plans to be a psychologist in ele- mentary schools.

T r i s h is also the coordinator of the National S t u d e n t Association for Alfred University. The ¡NBA is a confederation of over 300 student governments of college a n d

! universities throughout the United States. It is student-run, a n d through individual campus representatives, it/gives student governments the opportunity to evaluate student problems- Also, it helps m a n y colleges it serves.
