Robert Howat Gives Concert;
Sponsored by AU German Club
The AUUP will discuss "The Changing Values In College" by Philip Jacob in a panel discussion tonight at 8:00 in Howell Hall.
Participating in the discussion are Dr. David O'Hara of the Eng- lish department, Dr. Luke Smith of the sociology deipartment and Mrs. Robert Shrlich of the mathe- matics department. Mr. Mcintosh is the moderator. Each panelist will give a fifteen minute report of his ideas on the changing valties in college as presented in the book. The meeting will then be opened to the audience for discus- sion.
Jacob's "The Changing Values In College, An Exporatorx Study of the Impact of College Teaching"
has caused a variety of chinions concerning education. J. Edward Dirks of Yale University has this to say of the book: " . . .. it will soften some extravagant claims about university and college educa- tion, and will make for greater realism in evaluating higher éduca- tion, effects and potentialities."
According to Gordon W. Allpoprt of Harvard University, "Many sorts of scholars will be grateful to Philip Jacob . . . for securing a unique reference work. The bibli- ography alone is a significant con- tribution.",
"I believe Philip Jacob's presen- tation is balanced, moderate and
that its conclusions are supported by the evidence that he offers. The
report is not one that will give comfort to most college educators because I believe that it demolishes or at least challenges a number of its, prized assumptions . . . it will oblige all of us to share re- sponsibility for all academic pro»
grams, to re-examine our own intel- lectual premises and, too, curricu- lar arrangements that we have erected on these premises.'' This is the review given by Lawrence H.
Chamberlain of Columbia. Univer- sity.
Last year the AUUP discussed
"The Organization Man," by WilT liam Whyte, Jr. The year before they presented a panel on David Reisman's "The Lonely Crowd."
The meeting tonight is open to the public.
Students' of German have organ- ized a German club under the di- rection of Dr, Edward Slttler. The club is to serve both as a langu- age workshop as well as a social organization.

Class Tourè New York City as Part Of 'World's Great Religions' Studies
(Jerome Reicher was a partici- pant in a tour taken by Chaplain Bredenberg's World's Great Reli- gions, class during the Christmas vacation—Ed.)
Classes started early for Chap- lain Bredenberg's class in World'»:
Great Religions. With Inquisitive minds and a prearranged schedule of lectures In hand, the group met in New York City on the weekend of January S.
The purpose of this meeting wan twofold: first, to hear people who are practicing the religions which are being studied in class 'and sec- ondly, to get answers to some of the questions that evolved from classroom discussion here in Al- fred.
The trip and all the lectures were planned well in advance by Chap
Brown Speaks At Psyeh Club
Ronald Brown of the Speech and Dramatic Department of*Al- fred University was the guest speaker at the Psychology Club meeting on Thursday evening.
Dr. Brown's topic was Speech Therapy and the Relation of the Therapist to Psychology. He devot- ed the main part of his talk <0 a discussion of organic speech defects and their therapy. Among these defects are cancer of the pharynx, cleft palate, cerebral palsy, and stuttering.
The program included a record- ing of various patients of mental institutions. This was of interest to the group as it showed the speech patterns of several mental deficiencies.
Prof. Malcolm MacDonnell of the Psychology Department will apeak at the next meeting on his doc- toral dissertation.
by Jerome Reicher lain BredeQberg who also arrange that everyone had proper quarters i in New York.
The class met1 on Friday eve- ning, January 2, for the first tiime, at the China Institute of America.
It was here that Dr. Chih Meng, the host, lectured to the students on the Chinese religions m gen- eral. Most of his talk, however, was concerned with Confucianism and the family structure of the Chinese culture.
The following day, the students met at The Vendanta Society where Swaml Pavitrananda was the host. The Swami's talk pertain- ed to Hinduism, or more specifi- cally, the Vedas. He impressed up- on the students that Hinduism is an all inclusive religion. "Truth is one, men call it variously."—the Veda. . ' |
After a brief break for lunch, the caravan moved on to the Is- lamic Mission of America. On arri- val, they were met by their hose Reverend Sheikah, Daoud Ahmed Faisal, a dynamic speaker, to say the least.
To the dismay of the class, they were informed by the Reverend that there is no such subject as comparative religion^Islam, he stat- ed, is the only true religion. All others, such as Christianity and Judaism, are philosophies of life
With the passing of time and the sounding of a gong the students were transferred from a mosque in Brooklyn to a Buddhist church in Manhattan where the Reverend Yoshikama ¡greeted them. Here the class was informed that Buddhism is basically a pessimistic religion wh«re there is no god or altnighty.
After some hours of meditation, in true Buddhist fashion, in one 0/
New York's Japanese restaunrants, the class moved on to the Yoga Institute where Sachim Majumdar
was their host. "Yoga," the host declared, "is basically the control of the mind and body." At the re- quest of some of the students, Sa- ohim Majumdar performed some of the exercises that are characteris- tic of Yoga.
With this demonstration and some active discussion, the group dispersed to meet again Sunday morning at the First Zen Institute of America. It was here that the students took an active part in an actual service.
Following an informative lecture and discussion, the class broke up and each member made his way back to Alfred with many nev?
thoughts in mind and many ques tions answered.

Letter
TO THE STUDENTS:
Recently, your Student Senate representatives have discussed with you thç desirability of a "free day."
after the last day of classes, before the first day of exams. A vote of the student body, taken accord- ing to residences, indicated that a majority of the i students favored the proposal.
Working toward JthiB goal, our members of t)ie student govern- ment met with representatives of the faculty and administration on two different occasions. Many as- pects of the question were discuss- ed, primarily the problem of sched- uling.
Since the calendar for à school year Is prepared during the second semester of the preceding year, the only way to obtain a "free day"
would be to' delete a day of classes.
If this course were taken, those members of the faculty who allot their time carefully would be un- able to complete their lectures.
Therefore, the free day cannot- be scheduled for the present yar.
However, the administration has assured the student gove»nment that the free day will be included in the 1959-1960 schedule. We re- grét' that we Were iinable to obtain this privilege at the present time, but we are çonfidenèt that it will become a reality in the future.

Planning Diplomatic or Legal Career
Though diffident and modest, De- methius Cutsuras has participated in many activities on the Alfred campus, and has become well liked.
Demetrius was born in Tripoli, Greece in 1939, in a department called Arcadia. There he complete ed four years of elementary school where he studied language, and bi- ology. Many times the well-disci- plined classes 'might be held on Saturdays, affording the student more opportunity to keep up in his work.
1 Demeterios came to the United
by Alfred Sugarman States soon after the fourth grade and continued his schooling here.
Though he masters the English language very well now, he still remembers how difficult it was to speak to somebody during the first two months he was here.
From elementary school, Deme- trios attended Poughkeepsie High School. As a freshman, he joined the Dramatic Club, the tennis team, mixed chorus, and debating team.
In fact, Demetrios was second in a state-wide speaking contest.

Buffalo Bullies Warriors, 64-45;
Seventh Straight Saxon Setback
Playing before a highly partisan Buffalo crowd, at the Buffalo Gym- nasium, the Saxons attempted to begin the New Year on the right foot by ending their 6 game losing etreat. With Girmindi and Wagner unable to play, and Bresnick and Green playing in spite of their
injuries, • , In the first half, the Bulls out-
rebounded, oubhustled, and out- scored the Warriors with ease.
Buffalo won the opening taip and opened the scoring when Kirch- berger, 6' 4" torward, hit with a hook shot.. Sutton, bringing the ball down for the Saxons, drove in and sunk a layup to tie the score at 2 all. Seconds later, after a foul shot by Tontillo and a set shot by SChaper, the Bisons had a. three point lead. The Purple and Gold fought back with two foul shots by Steinberg and Bresnick, making the score 5-4 in favor of the Bis- ons. Then Kirchbenger hit again with his hook shot and Buffalo led 7-4. That was the closest the Sax- ons came to Buffalo all night.
On offense the Bulls bad troulble working against the zone defense that the Saxons set up. On defense, with Sutton bringing the ball down for Alfred the Bisons easily out- rebounded them (47-39) although Sutton picked off 23 to raise his average to 20.55 per game., During most of the half, Buffalo steadily increased its lead from the 17-6 margin that they enjoyed at the 7 minute mark, to 37-22 at the in- termission. Leading the first half breakaway for the Bulls were Ton- tillo, who was was the leading point getter on both sides with 17 for the evening, Kirchberger, and Kurowski. Buffalo hit 50 per cent of its shots in the Cirat half as com- pared with only 23 per cent for Alfred. Buffalo just had too much.
by Shelly F a g a n The lone bright spot in the first half for Alfred, was the offensive play "of Freshman Steve Steinberg.
He drove around 'Shaper and Dumpkowski with ease, and finish- ed the first session with 9 points.
At the start of the second hajf, the Saxons went into a full court press, but the Bisons continued to play smooth ball, and the best Al- fred could do was to draw to with- in 12 points of Buffalo during the half. Then, with the help of fouls on Alfred, Buffalo opened its lead to 16 points, and Messieurs Ohstrum and Steinberg were out of the game with 5 fouls each.
From that point, the Bulls just csasted to the buzzer and an easy
v64-45 win.
The depth prtublSm Was gainfully obvious after OHstrum and Stein- berg were removed by fouls. With
four of the team's first seven men injured, Coach Smith must ask his inexperienced Reserves for too much. If the Saxons are going to salvage what is left of the season, the injuries must heal quickly.
In the preliminary contest the Buffalo Freshman walloped Coach Seigels young Saxons S3-44.
Tonight, Alfred will meet Ha)m- ilton away from home, but will re- turn on Saturday night "to meet Buffalo State.

Grapplers Sock Union, 19-11
The Saxon grapplers started their 1959 campaign in good style last Saturday as they toppled the mat- men from Union College 19-11 at the Men's Gym.
Alfred lost the first two matches of the day as Jtalph Gutierrez lost on points to Charles Bruce in the 1231b class, and Jim Tenzel was' pinned by Clem Crow at 2:35 of the second period in the 1301b class.
The Saxons bounced back, how- ever. winning on points in the 137, 147, and 157 categories. Frey beat Adasek ¡n a close match, and Larry Wander and Ron Oarmichael took their matches 3-0 and 5-2 respec- tively.
By far the mo9t exciting match of the day was the 1671b contest between Lyle Wiedeman of Alfred and Pete Levesque of Union. The crowd was on its feet throughout most Of the struggle. The climax
of the match oame in the last min- ute of the last period, when Wied- eman was apparently • pinned. Al- though he was completely exhaust-
ed at the end of the second period, he bridged for more than 60 sec- onds to avoid the pin. At the end of the match the crowd roared its approval as both wrestlers lay dead to the world on the mat. The fact that Wiedeman lost the match on points in the final minutes did not seem to dampen the enthusi- asm of the crowd.
The Saxons finished the meet by sweeping the final two matches.
Dennis Kohler scored a pin in the 1771b class at 2:10 of the second period and Herman Lederberg won.
by forfeit in the unlimited class.
The matmen will meet Cortland tonight at Cortland and return home on Saturday to meet Colgate.
The Sports Corner
by Jay Htnis—Fiat Lux Sports Editor
Pete Smith's weary, bleary Saxons limped up to Buffalo last Saturday after a heart breaking, bone breaking, ligament tearing, muscle pulling trip to New York City during the Christmas vacation. On the road tour to the big city, the War- riors played Kings Point, "Wagner College, and Upsala College on successive days and in the process of losing all three games, three of the five starters and one of the first line substitutes were injured.
Most seriously injured were Gary Girmindi, Alfred's lead- ing scorer, who is ont for the season with a broken radius in his left hand, and Warren Wagner, who is also out indefinitely with a severely sprained ankle. Also on the injured list are Art Bresnick, third high scorer for the Saxons with a 10.0 point per game average, and promising Freshman Joe Green, who pulled a muscle in his left thigh. Both Bresnick and Green will be available for duty, but whether they will be able to perform up to par is questionable. The slew of injuries afflicting the Warriors has put a serious crimp in the expectations of the team.
But whilp Christmas was anything by merry for Coach Smith, there was one bright spot in the otherwise gloomy pic- ture. The bright spot j s 6 feet 3 inches tall,, and is the second leading rebounder in the nation, averaging 20.3 rebounds a game. His name is Warren Sutton. Sutton averaged over twenty points a game on the three game swing, scoring 39 of his 62 points against Upsala, to set an Alfred record in that depart- ment. He also hauled in 28 rebounds and had 9 assists (another record) in the same game. The astounded Upsala coach said after the game, "No one has played as well against us in my six years as coach."
Sutton Second
According to the latent figures released by the national Collegiate Athletic Bureau, Alfred's basket- ball star Warren Sutton is the num- ber two rebounder in the country.
•Sutton's average of 20.3 rebounds per game ties him with Bailey of Pasadena and Bell of North Caro- lina for second place honors. Jack- son of Iowa State Teachers Col- lege is the current leader with an average of 20.5 per game. *
In the eight games thus far play- ed, Sutton has hauled in 163 re- bounds and scored 102 points to lead his team in both departments.
