ALFRED TROUNCES ST. LAWRENCE WITH FOUR REGULARS ABSENT FROM LINE-UP
Although handicapped by the loss of four men during the week, the Var- sity track team registered its second victory in as many starts when the .St. Lawrence tracksters bowed before the Saxons 73-58 at Canton last Satur- day. Percy, star all-around athlete at St. Lawrence, took high scoring honors by virtue of first places in the 100 and 220 yd. dashes and broad jump. Robinson and Havens followed with thirteen and twelve points res- pectively.
Percy negotiated the century in 9.9 seconds and came back a little later to step off the 220 in 22.2 seconds, leaving no question as to his ability as a sprinter. Ryskind took a second in the 100, but could do no better than a third in the 220. Shappee ran a nice 440 to win in 53.1 seconds while Obourn was just nosed out for second place in the event. Robinson and Buckley took first and second in the high hurdles but Diamond came back in the lows to give the Larries a first in that event, with Robinson and Buckley taking second and third re- spectively.
Robinson also took a first in the shot put with a heave of 34 feet.
Vance, after taking a second in the mile which was won by Warde, then stepped out to take the half mile in the fast time of 2 minutes and 1 sec- ond. Warde also captured the two
mile run.
Havens showed up well in the field events, capturing the discus, tying with. Carpenter in the pole vault for first place and taking the high jump with Maroney and Commons to sweep the latter event. Shappee and McFad- den took second places in the broad jump and javelin respectively to com- plete Alfred's harvest in the field
•events.
With the return of Merck, Graham and Roe into shape this week, the Purple and Gold aggregation will be considerably bolstered up to present a powerful team at the Conference meet in Rochester Saturday.

SCALP AND BLADE MAKES NOMINATIONS
Last Thursday in Assembly the stu-1 dent body balloted on the various I class nominations for student senate j offices. Only three classes made j nominations due to the fact that the Seniors' undergraduate careers end at Commencement, three weeks from to- morrow.
Saxone Ward was elected as the Freshman Class representative to the senate by a large majority. William Kiugsley, also of the Frosh Class, re- ceived a large number of votes, but
failed to reach a majority ballot.
As the new Sophomore Class repre- sentatives, Harold Shappee and Claire Greene were the winning nominees.
The former succeeds himself in the senate, having served in that group during the past year.
Sidney DeLaney and John Grantier also were re-elected to that body as representatives of the Class of 1932, Janet Reamer was the third repre- sentative. To complete the new per- sonnel of the ruling body, Dale Lock- wood '32, as the Judge of the Campus Court, automatically becomes the seventh member of the group.
The Scalp and Blade Society mem- bers deliberated at Considerable length last week before making their nominations for Alfred's most out- standing athlete. Each member was permitted to make five nominations on his ballot slip. All of the nominees were members of the Senior Class.
The ballots then were handed to the members of Alfred's coaching staff for final consideration. In making their choice, the coaches must pick one of the nominees on the Scalp and Blade ballots. The winner of the award will be announced in Assembly during thej Moving-up Day exercises on May 28.
The coaches intend to base their individual choices on sportsmanship, general ability, achievement and in- terest.
SOPHOMORES CHOSE HISERODT, PRESIDENT
FOR COMING YEAR
The Sophomore Class chose its of- ficers for the coming year last Tues- day with Marie Hiserodt taking office as the new president. Walter Merck became vice president. The secre- tariate went to Ruby Robinson, and Regal Perry was selected as the new treasurer.It is customary for each class to have a woman assume the presidency during its Junior year. A male stu- dent heads the Kanakadea staff dur- ing that year, and on all other years, male students hold the class presi- dencies.
The plans for next year's Junior Class activities will get under way at once. At the same time the Sopho- mores will continue their underclass rivalry with the Freshmen until Moving-up Day.

Frahm Elected
Year Book Editor
The Sophomore Class elected its Kanakadea heads for next year last Tuesday evening, selecting Raymond Frahm as the editor-in-chief and Van Rensellear Ostrander as business manager. This election followed brief talks and outlines of the work involved which were given by Lewis Beyea, editor of the 1932 year book, and Rob- ert Flint, business manager.
The remaining staff managers and editors were chosen as follows; Rob- ert Rawley, advertising manager; Wil- liam Samuelson, circulation manager;
Wilma Smith, art editor and Benjamin Towner, cartoonist. The remaining staff officers will be chosen at a future I date by the editor-in-chief. Contracts are being made at the present time for next year's printing, photography and engraving.
COACHES PROTEST COOK TEAM'S WIN
Several coaches, whose teams were entered in the local interscholastic track meet at Merrill Field last May 8, protested against the participation of schools in the preparatory athletic class. "The Cook Academy boys are j older and more experienced than mine, and it isn't fair to my team to try to compete against a prep school outfit," were the comments of one high school mentor after the meet.
It is highly probable that in the
| future only high school teams will be invited to Alfred's interscholastic events. It is believed also the Buffalo, Rochester and Schenectady entries will be eliminated as well, leaving only small school teams in the run- ning.
One hundred Junior Class members and guests gathered at the Parish House last Thursday evening for the traditional Kanakadea banquet and to witness its presentation in an out- standing class event. Speeches were j made, songs were rendered, and the banquet drew to a close at 9:30 P. M.
as one of the class's most successful functions.
Dr. Murray J. Rice, serving as toast- master for the affair, humorously in- troduced Professor Seidlin as the first speaker of the evening. Annette Clif- ford, president of the class, spoke next, giving emphasis to the banquet as a class function. Lewis Beyea, editor of the year book, spoke briefly and thanked his fellow classmates for their co-operation in making possible the publication of the book.
Robert Flint, business manager, touched briefly upon the financial de- tails of the annual. The Invocation was given by Chaplain James C. Mc- Leod.
The climax of the banquet occurred when Doctor Paul C. Saunders was presented with a special copy of the book, bearing his name as the Dedi- catee. Dr. Saunders, although con- siderably surprised, expressed his gratification for the honor and stated that he wished to become personally acquainted with every member of the class. It was evident that the name of the Dedicatee had been kept in absolute secrecy, the choice of the class being announced officially for the first time. The event marked the first time as well that Dr. Saunders had received the honor from an Al- fred Junior Class.
The guests at the occasion included President and Mrs. B. C. Davis, Dean Degen, Dr. Binns, Dr. Norwood, Dr.
and Mrs. Paul C. Saunders, Registrar and Mrs. Titsworth, Mrs. J. Seidlin, Dean and Mrs. Conroe, Professor Ellis, Mrs. M. J. Rice, Mrs. J. C. McLeod, Dr. and Mrs. Campbell, Professor and Mrs. Potter, Professor and Mrs.
Buchanan, Miss Hewitt, Margrieta Coit '31, Mary Brown Allen '31, James McFadden '31, and Paul Webster '31.
The members of the banquet com- mittee were, Robert C. Nobbs, chair- man, Lois Acker, Isabelle Moore and Lewis 11. Beyea.

About 150 people crowded into the new Social Hall to witness a piano recital by Dr. Karapetoff of Cornell.
The pianist, a noted musician and scientist, delighted his audience with selections accompanied by explana- tions of the various movements which were presented.
Dr. Karapetoff first presented Chop- in's valses and nocturnes, and then introduced some of Debussey's most famous selections. As an anti-climax, he gave a very exact rendition of Rachmaninoff's "Prelude in C Sharp Minor," following with Beethoven's
"Sonata Pathetique". Probably his best number of the evening was the finale of the first opera of the
"Niebelanger Trilogy" by Wagner.
He studied at the Imperial Conser- vatory in Petrograd, mastering both the piano and cello.
Klan Alpine Holds Annual Spring Formal
On Saturday, May 16, Klan Alpine held its annual spring formal dance at the Hotel Sherwood in Hornell. A banquet, served at 6:30 P. M. pre- ceded the dancing for which Fitch Brothers Orchestra of Olean played.

The chaperones included Mother King, Professor and Mrs. C. R. Am- berg, Doctor and Mrs. P. C. Saunders, Doctor and Mrs. Seidlin, Registrar and Mrs. W. A. Titsworth, Dean Conroe, and Professor B. Crandall. Among the alumni who returned for the dance were Robert BasSett, St.Clair Dan- forth, John Thomson, Ernest Clement, William Duke, John McConnell, Daniel Gridley and Lawrence Callahan.

Mrs. Cortelyou Writes Article On Make-up
In the April edition of "The Scholastic" there appears an article by Ethaline Hartge Cortelyou '32, of Alfred University on "Make-up". This article which covers one and a half magazine pages deals with the use of, and equipment in, make-up for high school theatrical groups.
Accompanying the article is a photo- graph of the make-up room in Alumni Hall; at the tables, being made up for a production, one is able to dis- tinguish four members of the Foot- light Club.
Mrs. Cortelyou's article is lucid and well outlined. It should ;prove of unestimable worth to high school groups.

Carpetbaggers?
A student's right to hold an undergraduate office depends mostly upon his desire to give his best efforts in discharging the duties of that office. As is generally the case in Alfred, many candidates re- gard extra-curricular activities as sources of social prestige or po- litical achievement. They look to possible positions as a means of gaining approval from their particular class or clique or as an avenue of receiving a slap on the back from their elders. A righteous soul would demand that such persons must either renounce his respon- sibilities in abdication or reconsider his position and obligations.
On the other hand we hope that the new campus elects and future candidates will go further than the usual acceptance, and will at- tempt progress and development during their regimes in the vari- ous organizations. Personal honors, credit and prestige are value- less in this case if they do not go hand in hand with achievement.
Fraternity Politics
Continuing our lessons in definitions, we next come to the word, "politics". The previously mentioned dictionary described the word as "political affairs in a party sense; party intrigues." Hence, we beg to inform many of our kind readers that fraternity politics most probably means the science of dealing with government in ac- cordance with fraternity policies or sentiments.
In practically all phases of life, as we are told, one encounters the "survival of the fittest" and all that sort of thing. If any one student intends to await an extra-curricular office with clasped hands, then let him try it and find out for himself just how far he will go. A candidate must have support or resort to "stuffing" the ballot box.
But is fraternity politics, after all, such a bad state of affairs?
Practically every college enjoys the same situation whether it sanc- tions fraternities or not. No man can deny the fact that in a large group cliques will form according to the needs, interests or ambi- tions of the gregarious man. Thus it is the way of life—groups form, and may the best man win!
Fraternity politics work for the good of the school provided that the winning faction supports the most capable of the eligible candi- dates. It goes without question that many officeholders gain control not through hard work in competition for the office, but from per- sonality, appearance, popularity and strong political support. To these, we suggest a career of conscientious labor through a sense of duty.
One most frequently hears the complaint of "fraternity politics"
from a defeated faction. We beg that they will realize "that they are as fully involved in the system as are their opponents. If the situation must exist in its present form, its only redeeming feature lies in supporting the best possible candidates for the new offices.
The 1932 Kanakadea
As it was stated in the Foreword of the book, the 1932 Kana- kadea fulfilled its purpose in recording the events of the past year—
that "acquaintances, associations and activities may not be dimmed by the lapse of passing years." In this respect a college annual be- comes one of detail, and the new year book qualifies in near- perfect style as a permanent record.
In former years the Kanakadea was but a mere pamphlet in comparison with the large and expensive volumes that later took form. During the past three years the student body saw its annual reach a high point in development, size and arrangement. The under- graduates found as well that the problem of financing such an ex- tensive enterprise became very perplexing and took more than a year to be settled. The present volume, however, was condensed and simplified somewhat with a view toward eliminating the overwhelm- ing cost of the book. In being able to finance its year book, the Class of '32 deserves our heartiest congratulations for their success in promoting the edition of athletic programs, Kanadakea dances, Follies and concessions at the athletic field as methods of defraying year book expenses.
We hope that future Junior Class books will follow this example now that it has been set. Over-emphasis is a tendency and a tempta- tion that is difficult to avoid, and the "bigger and better" policy is not always the best plan to follow.

ALFRED PREPARES FOR CONFERENCE
MEET THIS WEEK
COOK ACADEMY BEATS FRESHMEN
TRACKSTERS, 67-41
Alfred's yearling track aggregation went down to a 67-41 defeat at the hands of Cook Academy at Montour Palls last Saturday. The Saxon green- lidders threatened the Interscholastic champions on the cinder paths, but Athletic Conference track champion-1 were outscored 34-13 in the field ship. Last year was the first time
since the Conference was started, that the Saxon squad did not run off with Rochester will be the scene of the grand finale of Varsity track this Sat- urday, when Rochester, Hamilton, St.
Lawrence, and Alfred meet to settle the cinder path supremacy in the Fifth Annual New York State Intercollegiate
events.
Flint of Cook garnered the individ- ual high scoring mark for the day the team honors, when they lost out j with a tally of 17 points, being close- to Hamilton by sixteen points. Ham-liy followed by his team mate, Fritts, ilton will be a strong contender again | w h o I l etted a total of 15 markers, this year, although Alfred's prospects Clark led the college tracksters

The sprints will be a hot battle be-1 Alfred's distance runners complete- tween Percy of St. Lawrence, Green-1 iy s l l u t o u t t l l e prepsters with Ten- berg of Rochester and Ryskind of
Alfred. Robinson and Buckley should go well in the hurdles. Merck and Obourn should turn in good perform- ances in the 440, while Vance is like- ly to shatter the two minute mark for the half mile set by Zschiegner in 1929. Warde will have a hard op- ponent in the mile and two mile in the person of Pritchard of Hamilton, who has been turning in record per- formances in those events this year.
Havens turned in a nice mark in the discus against St. Lawrence and looks like a possible winner in that event.
Havens will also probably show in the pole vault and high jump along with Maroney, Common, and Carpenter.
Flint and Robinson have been going well in the weights, while Shappee in the broad jump and McFadden in the javelin are sure point winners in their respective events. If Graham recovers
from the illness which kept him out taterscholMtic champ, failed of the St. Lawrence meet, he should »e a r- He then coasted into
Broeck, Wessels, Tolbert and Patter- son doing most of the scoring. The Saxons swept through the half mile run for all three places, and all four of them rain a dead heat for first place in the mile.
Clark's pole vaulting was another feature of the day when he topped the bar at 11 feet 7 inches. This per- formance shows excellent promise of future Varsity material, and safe- guards one of the events for the next three years.
Fritts of Cook, who starred here on the last two Fridays in the inter- scholastics and Frosh tennis match, turned in a remarkable performance by tossing the javelin 172 feet 7

The Alfred Frosh tennis team step- ped out last Friday and won over Cook Academy by the score of 4-1. The yearlings, playing on their own courts, showed plenty of snap and speed. Al- though the visitors displayed a fine brand of tennis the outcome of the match was never in doubt.
Holstein started things by winning his first set 6-0 and went on to take the second set 6-4 from Bassett. "Red"
played heads-up tennis and showed great promise for the future. Van- Horn then proceeded to take his first set 6-3. In the second set, Knapp, with a burst of speed took five games to VanHorn's one. At this point Van- Horn turned the tide and took six straight games to win the match 7-5.

It looks as though Hamilton is try- ing to repeat its conference champion- ship victory of last year. Pritchard turned in a 4:32 mile last week as well the

The team will put in a week of hard work under the tutelage of Coaches McLane and Galloway to point for the last victory which will give Al- fred an undefeated season in track for 1931.
Rochester Sports Writer Comments
On Alfred Teams
It has long been a mystery to ath- letic fans in this state as to how Al- fred repeatedly is able to put a winner on the field in nearly every track event. Strange as it may seem, the Saxons have lost but one home meet in the past nine years and have dropped only two dual meets away from home in the past seven seasons.
To add to their record, the Syracuse Post Standard credited the Saxons in 1929 as having "the best small college track team in the East" with only eight men in the line-up on trips The sports editor of the Rochester "Cam- pus" submits the following observa-

We suspect that a great share of the Alfred trackmen's inspiration comes from co-eds, who cheer shrilly and enthusiastically and expose their nether extremities to various degrees as they form a majority of the grand- stand gallery. But after all, the Al- fred men probably must train for walking up and down those big, silent, lovely hills of the region in some manner; and track solves that prob- lem.

Betty Rogers and Gar- diner also appear to have the compe- tition in the distance event well under control, and the former should stand a good chance of taking five points in the hurdles.
The Frosh-Soph meet will probably be held on Moving-up Day.

BOOKS WORTH READING Boners
By Those Who Made Them Bonors—or, as they used to be call- ed, Howlers—are schoolroom errors.
This little collection is highly enter- taining, for it has been carefully sifted to contain those juvenile slips
•which are amusing because in their unintended error they often come paradoxically near larger truth.
But it is not desirable to he pon- derous about so pleasant a little book.
Open it at random, you will find al- most anywhere some sprinkle of salt:
In Christianity a man can have only one wife. This is called Monotony.
Contralto is a low sort of music that only ladies sing.
Pope wrote mostly in heroic cut- lets.
Martin Luther died a horrible death.
He was excommunicated by a bull.
Henry VIII had a abscess on his knee, which made walking difficult.
False doctrine means giving people the wrong medicine.
The wife of a duke is a ducky.
LXXX means love and kisses.
Si And I At The Circus I conclude you know everything about Wall Street. Well, Si and I once took stock in a circus sideshow for ten cents a ticket. We entered the big tent between halves and strolled about.
In front of the bearded lady's plat- j form was a big announcement pro- claiming the fact that his wife had had twins and he would be absent from the performance. Then in stepped the legless Maxine and twisted her ankle which caused the fire eater j
to burn up. But what amazed us was the magician that pulled eggs from pockets and so on. Si bought a book of directions for his rooster.
Then we invested in prize boxes. Si got the neatest chemise I have ever seen. I didn't find anything in mine and told the guy so. He said I was lucky I didn't get a nipple and bottle.
That joke cost me two bits. I haven't laughed yet as I want my money's worth.
Next we viewed the half-man, half- woman freak. I inquired how it got
that way and it said its father was a Columbia researcher and experimenter.
Finally we came to a dark booth.
Above the doorway was a red and white sign bearing the letters E-X-I-T.
We had never heard of that freak so we went in. Still, it's a queer Scotch town where one can't get tight.
Not-so-dum as Dun-by-Gum.
The first reference to football tells that King Edward II of England placed a ban on the game in 1314, j because it created too much noise.
