MANSFIELD WILL PLAY HERE FRIDAY
Purple and Gold Defeats Ni- agara in a One-sided Game,
14-0
Alfred defeated Niagara in a hard- fought game on the Alfred field last Friday afternoon by a score of 14-0.
The purple slightly outweighed the Falls Collegians and was able to dash for many yards through the light Ni- agara line, but there was no scoring In the opening half. The Varsity rapidly pushed the ball down the field time after time, only to fumble or to be held for downs in the shadow of I the Niagara goal posts. The power- ful Alfred line opened gaping holes in the Niagara defense, but the gray-clad backfield rallied to meet the emerg- ency, and downed the purple backs three times when the ball was nearly over the line.
But the second half was a different story, and after crashing down the field steadily, the purple shoved over the first touchdown, repeating the act in the final quarter. Niagara fought gamely to overcome the Alfred offen- sive, but their light weight availed them little.
Alfred gained more than three hun- dred yards by straight plunges, mak- ing nineteen first downs, while Ni- agara was able to make their distance but three times, twice by virtue of the forward pass, and once on an Al- fred fumble.
Credit for the victory must go to the Alfred line which opened large holes in the Niagara defense, and was impregnable when the Cataract City team was in possession of the ball.
However, all members of the Alfred team put up a good article of football, and had the breaks been at all with the purple, the score would have been much larger. Geneva College did not gain so many yards in the game against

BRICK VAUDEVILLE
On Saturday night the Brick girls gave the first of a series of vaudeville acts which the Athletic Association is planning to feature in connection with the movies.
The two acts were well rendered and interesting, and much credit is due to the able management of "Peg"
Newisinger and Mildred Faulstich, who i directed the (production. We a r e glad to herald the advent of a new football song, which the girls intro- duced.
On Saturday night, also, we wel- comed into our midst a new movie star, Mitchell Lewis, whom we saw in a gripping picture of the Western lumber region.
DELEGATES VISIT THE UNIVERSITY
About 200 delegates, attending the convention of Philatheas and Baracas at Hornell, visited the University, Mon- day. The trip was part of a sight-seeing tour in connection with the convention.
Squads of students escorted the visi- tors about the campus and special at- tention was given to the Ceramic School and the Steinheim. The streets were pretty well crowded with auto- mobiles which began coming early in the afternoon and did not leave until late.
ASSEMBLY Seats Assigned
The asembly period last week was taken over by the registrar to assign the seats. For the first year in history the asembly hall is filled to overflowing. In order to accommo- date all the students several chairs have been placed in the Hall. Every seat is taken by the student body leav- ing- no room for visitors. Some sort of arrangement will have to be made to meet the increasing numbers of the student body as next year will find the conditions worse than they are at present.
President Davis announced that Dr.
Norwood, who was to speak, would not deliver his address until the fol- lowing week. Dr. Norwood has just returned from Europe, where he has been studying post war conditions.
The student body held a short meet- ing to discuss the arrangements for the coming assembly dance which will be held on the fourth of Decem- ber.
Last Game of the Season, Varsity Confident of Vic-
torious But Hard Battle
MASS MEETING
Last Thursday night a"t Ag School, we staged a mass meeting which had some real life in it. Many of us found out for the first time that we were musicians, and we all used every ounce of breath blowing the gazoos or shouting out the songs-and yells. After the first five minutes McMahon had only a whisper to use, but we kept together on the yells by watching his arms, which proved to be as eloquent as a Frenchman's. After the big noise was somewhat quieted, we had fine talks from Pres. Davis, the Coach and Mr. "Jake" Merrill. "They're all right," we shouted, and we meant all of that, too. The students showed how much they appreciated the Presi- dent's loyalty to Alfred's athletics, and how willing they were to co-operate with him, by holding the victory bon- fire the next evening before supper, as he requested. The coach in his short talk, told us we ought to trim Niagara, and our alumnus "Jake" de- j clared we surely would; so there was nothing left to do, after such a rally,' but to win a clean-cut victory.
ELECTION RETURNS
Football games, movies, vaudeville, dances and most of our other good times are for the financial benefit of the Athletic Council; so we were not surprised to have that hustling group bring the election returns to us by direct wire from the Associated Press.
During the evening several sky mess- ages were also pulled down by Chief Witter, our wireless operator. Lack of interest among the students con- cerning national affairs was shown by their absence. However, about fifty people of both sexes and all ages spent several hours watching Tom Place and Clair Peck chalk up the lat- est Harding pluralities. The election of the Republican national ticket was assured by the reports of the late evening; and conceded at 11 o'clock
Interest centers on the coming game with Mansfield State Normal College which will be staged on Alfred Field, Friday afternoon, and every effort is being made to whip the Varsity into shape for this gruelling contest. For years there has been intense rivalry and many hard fought battles have been the result.
While Alfred usually meets gridiron teams each year that are on an ath- letic plane slightly higher than Mans- field, the annual contest with the red and black is one of the most heralded events on the Varsity schedule,, and more real spirit is shown when the two teams meet than in any other game. It goes without saying that the game on Friday will be a real battle. Local football sages who for years have noted the combats between the purple and the red and black are predicting one of the greatest Alfred- Mansfield games in history. Both teams are fairly strong this season, and both have faced hard schedules.
The teams are about evenly matched in age, weight and experience of players, and it will be a keen struggle between Coach Wesbecher's purple eleven, and the well-schooled red and black team under the leadership of Coach Kichline.
While the game with Mansfield at Hornell last season would in all prob- ability have b.een a draw had it not been for the great work of Kichline in the Mansfield backfield, the red and black won the game on the merits of a team that played good football, followed the ball well, and tackled hard and sure. Then, too, there was something else, for Alfred had already played one hard game during the week, meeting Canisius College at Buffalo on Tuesday, and with two days' inter- mission, facing the powerful Mansfield outfit on Friday.
Mansfield usually contents herself with a schedule consisting of major college freshman games, and with the leading preparatory schools and nor- mal colleges of Pennsylvania, plus the annual contest with Alfred. The red and black always puts out a team that is worthy of any minor college of this state or Pennsylvania, and there have been years when the Mans- field team has been r a t e d a s one of the strongest elevens in the country. With a wealth of material, and a strong foot- ball spirit, the northern Pennsylvanians 'seldom present a weak team. It is when the wireless gave Harding 376 electoral votes.
When the interested spectators dis- persed, Prof. Shaw was still hopeful of Gov. Smith's re-election. The next morning all of the dozen Demo- crats in this village stopped hoping.
usually a heavy, well-drilled machine that represents the big Normal Col- lege.
Alfred will go into the contest oil Friday with a strong determination to avenge past defeats, and with a hard week of practice following the Ni- agara game, much can be expected of the purple clad warriors. The men are all in fairly good condition with the exception of Ferry and Fox. The former has been suffering from a bad- ly sprained ankle, while the latter's knee has been giving him some trouble.
Both of these men were injured in the hard fought battle with University of Buffalo. Stryker, also, has been treating an injured knee, but pros- pects as to his being in the Alfred- Mansfield game are good. Since Fox's injury Stryker has been placed regularly at left end, and his work has been most commendable.
The line-up which starts against Mansfield will probably be nearly the same as that which defeated Niagara here last Friday. Some of the men may be shifted in position, but the personnel of the purple Varsity will remain approximately the same. Wor- den, who was at right tackle for Al- fred against Niagara, showed evi- dences of real football ability, and his promotion to a Varsity berth has strengthened the line to no small ex- tent.
Coach Kichline will use his strong- est line up against Alfred on Friday, The men have been working hard all season in anticipation of this game, and will be prepared to give Alfred a real battle. The one big game of the Mansfield schedule is the annual Alfred contest, and throughout the season the red and black players are schooled with that end in view.
One of the largest crowds of -the season is expected to witness the game, and as much interest is being evinced by surrounding towns as in the old days when Alfred and St. Bona- venture fought for supremacy on the chalk lined field. The proximity of the two institutions has much to do with the spirit of rivalry which exists between them, and Mansfield will bring a good portion of its student body to occupy the cheering section on the west side of the field. Special accommodations will be made to trans- port the Mansfield rooters from Hor- nell to Alfred and this village promises to present a scene of much activity on Friday afternoon. The officials of the game have been appointed, by the Central Board, and have been selected with care for this important contest.
Glance over a few Mansfield-Alfred scores of years past, and let's have everyone on the side lines Friday afternoon promptly at 3:30:

ARMISTICE DAY CELEBRATION IN ALFRED
On Monday evening, several ex- service men met in Ag Hall and a parade for Armistice Day was dis- cussed. Committees were appointed and plans were made for a parade.
It is desired by the men present at this meeting, that all service men come out, as there will also be some- thing for an attraction to all service men in the evening. It is also de- sired that all Fraternities and Clubs join in a body, and the townspeople are most cordially invited and urged to attend and help make this one of the largest parades ever held in Alfred.
We want this day to be a day of

THE PRESIDENT'S OPINION
Dear Editor:
May I commend your editorial of two weeks ago on the "Banquet Sea- son?" By such a thoughtful and serious handling of the problem, the Fiat is rendering a real service in building up a student sentiment that will correct the abuses which have crept into "Banquet Season" in recent years.
The Faculty will gladly give every possible co-operation to the students in working out the right solution of a problem which now has produced a crisis.
We wish student government tq succeed. The public, however, holds the Faculty responsible for its defects or failures. We can not escape the censure for any breaking down of rules or ideals, through laxness or abuses that develop with new and changed conditions.
It is evident to the Faculty, and I think to the students also, that some important changes must promptly be made, or the banquets will have to be abolished by the verdict of the public as well as of ourselves. The abuses which you mention are brought to the President's attention by anxious parents and a disgusted public, as well as by dissatisfied members of the Faculty.
It is unfortunate that the method and time for changing rules puts it so
late in the year, when Seniors are oc- cupied with approaching graduation, and many others have grown indif- ferent to the evils which are felt so keenly at Banquet time.
I would suggest that the Fiat con- tinue to promote a public sentiment in the interest of Banquet reform, and invite suggestions as to the best me- thods of accomplishing the changes needed, so that when the time comes all will be ready to encourage the modi-
fication of rules so as to eliminate the abuses which have become pronounced evils of the contest.

For just a year Alfred has cheer- fully held the sting of defeat which was suffered at the hands of Mansfield last Armistice Day. Friday the Pur- ple and Gold warriors are scheduled to meet Mansfield on the Alfred field and wipe out all memory of defeat.
The visitors elated with last year's victory are confident of repeating the feat again but in the eyes of Alfredians their chances are slim.
Coach Wesbecher will be able to put the best possible team on the field for the game. No doubt Fox and Ferry, both of whom were injured in the Buf- falo game, will be seen in the lineup.
They have been reporting for prac- tice for the last week although the in- juries to their legs are not as well as they should be. Heavy scrimmage is the order for the week.
The game is important in more ways than one. It will be the last home game for the Purple and Gold team this season and will also be the last home game in which "Chief" Witter and Captain Searls will be seen in the Purple and Gold uniform. Both men, who have played such wonderful games for Alfred, will graduate this year. They are determined to win their last game on the Alfred field and the rest of the team is just as determined that they will win.
The game is creating quite a stir in the ranks of Hornell sportdom and will draw a record breaking crowd from that city as well as from other nearby places. Plans are being made to accommodate a RECORD-BREAK- ING crowd.
NOTICE
The first meeting of the New York State Students' Branch of the Ameri- can Ceramic Society, will be held to- night at 8 o'clock at the Ceramic School. All ceramic men should be there. Election of officers will be held.
The students of the Modern Langu- age Department were pleasantly en- tertained at tea Thursday afternoon by Miss Landwehr and Dr. Mix at the latter's home.

KAYEM'S FEATURE MUSICIANS AND JACK LIDEN
The first number of the Fraternities Club Entertainment Course will be presented at Firemens Hall, next Sat- urday evening, November 13, at eight o'clock. Kayem's Feature Musicians and Jack Liden will furnish an even- ing of high grade entertainment. Every member of the company is an expert in his line, and their solo and ensemble work is pronounced splendid. Inci- dentally every member of the company is an ex-service man.
Louis Colangelo, manager of the company, was leader of the 56th In- fantry Band ,7th Division. He is one of the best cornet soloists in this country.
Signor Grasso, flute soloist, with the Musicians, refused an offer with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra to finish the season with this company.
He is a musical humorist, one of the funniest men on the platform.
Jack Laden, story teller, was in the navy for two and a half years. He was known as "Duffy" in the navy by the thousands of boys whom he en- tertained. Liden has roamed the United States from ocean to ocean, from the Yukon to Mexico. He has entertained in many states and under all circumstances. He presents stories in the Irish, Italian,. Swedish!
and Jewish dialects.
The price for single admissions will be 75 cents and war tax, but everyone should buy a season ticket and hear all five numbers at an average cost of only 60 cents per number. A few good seats are left for the early comers. Reservations at Shaw's Jewelry Store.

The Gothic chapel was the gather- ing place of a god proportion of Al- fred's 60 Y. M. C. A. members, when Pastor Ehret gave an inspiring talk on man's growth by Christian living. His text was from the second book of Peter: "To your faith supply virture, to your virtue add knowledge, to knowledge add self control, to self- control patience, to patience godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness and to [ brotherly kindness love." These steps i in a true Christian's spiritual develop- ment should come one by one as we grow to manhood physically and men- tally.
Efforts are being made (.o bring again to Alfred Dr. Beaven, the fam- ous Rochester clergyman who came here last winter. If he finds it pos- sible to accept the invitation of the Associations, "Dr. Beaven will be here for three days in the middle of De- cember.
In a sincere attempt to gain help and guidance for the work of Alfred's Y.
M. C. A. during the coming year, sev- eral of our members joined in a small prayer group which met every morn- ing last week at the Gothic. We are sure that these prayer meetings will be repeated in coming years. They help to complete the all-round work of the Christian Association; Bible study and discussion, helpful acts and prayer.
VIOLIN RECITAL
On Tuesday evening, Nov. 23, one of the most important musical events of our present season will take place at Firemens Hall. Miss Rose Becker of New York, violinist, who is now tour- ing the southern states, will give an interesting violin recital. She will be assisted at the piano by Mrs. Ada Becker Seidlin, her sister and the head of the University piano department.
