Vol. 52 No. 14 ALFRED, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY-9, 1965 Phone 587-5402

Dr. John Nelson Norwood, president emeritus of Alfred University, died Sunday morning at Bethesda Hospital in North Hornell after a long illness. Dr. Norwood was 85 years old;

Fanerai services for Dr. Norwood will be held in the Al- fred Seventh Day Baptist Church tomorrow at 2 p.m. A spe- cial memorial service will be held by the University within two weeks.

Out* of respect for Dr. Norwood, all University offices will be closed tomorrow afternoon. Also the academic deans have announced that there will be no classes between 12 noofl and 4:30 tomorrow afternoon.

Dr. Norwood, a former student, professor, and dean at Alfred, served as president of the University from 1934 until his retirement in 1945. For a year prior to his appointment as president, Dr. Norwood served as acting president upon the sudden death of the then president, Dr. Paul E. Titsworth.

Dr. Finla G. Crawford, chairman of the Alfred University Board of Trustees and a long time friend of Dr. Norwood, noted that the late president emeritus' connection with Alfred stretched back to the turn of the century. Dr. Crawford, a former pupil of Dr. Norwood's, said be- could think of no sucb similar record of continuous service to the University.

After immigrating from England at the age of 16, Dr.

Norwood came to Alfred to live with an unele. He entered the Alfred Academy in 1898, graduated in 1902, and immedi- ately entered Alfred University. He received: his bachelor's degree from the University in 18906.

Dr. Norwood then left Alfred to pursue his graduate study at the Universities of Wisconsin and Michigan and at Cornell University. He returned to Alfred in 1910 as an associate pro- fessor of history and political science. He' was promoted to a full professorship a year later and retained that title until he assumed the presidency. He concurrently served as dean of the University from 1923 to 1933.

Caravan Is Discontinued;

Ag-Tech Station Blamed

The Alfred University student radio show, Campus Caravan, ¡has been cancelled toy its station because oí the opening of a radio station by Alfred Ag-Tech.

William Powleji, station manager of WWHG (1920 to Horn-ell), told Al Kisbert, student director of the Caravan, and . Larry Dale, University publicity director and (advisor to the show, of the can- cellation last month.

' Dale, reporting on the cance- llation, said t h a t Powley toad objected to specific parts of the Caravan show in recent months.

However, in apeaking to Dale and and Eisbart, powley made specific reference to the fact ttoat Al- fred Tech toad started their own

¡radio station. Fowled questioned Whether the Caravan, a half-hour show, would succeed when WVAT

(ttoe Tech station) was broadcasting.

Bi'stoert has said that toe would like to continue broadcasting some manner of a radio show. However he said thai it must be decided if the Caravan is to serve a s a publicity organ of the University or a student educational experience with entertainment for ttoe students.

A committee has 'been formed to Hnvesitigate the possibility of the University forming its own radio station for broadcast several hours a week. Members of the committee are: Dale, Eisbert, Fred H. Gertz,

¡registrar; and Mark Federmam, who worked on ttoe defunct stoow with Eisbert.

The program which was discontinued had been run solely toy students and was broadcast on Friday afternoons.

letters to U. S. government officials and the New York Times, calling for an end to Communist and U. S. armed intervention an his country.

Educated in traditional Confu- cian teachings by his father, Vto

h a s law,

Despite opposition from two {fraternity hlocs protecting their own interests, the Senate approved a proposal submitted by the

student rights committee at the last .Senate meeting Jan. 12.

This proposal which wiould allow uppenclass women to good Bocial standing to visit men's apartments w a s opposed by Sen- ate members in Phi Epsitan P i and Klan Alpine. These fraternity members objected because

they felt that this proposal would encourage fraternity men to live in apartments rather than to chapter 'houses, thus weakening the fraternity system.

The revised version of the first proposal by the rights committee concerning alcohol on campus .was also read. The 'basis for the

irequest has been changed from a presumption that alcohol is p a r t of contemporary social situations to a supposition that alcohol can h e used in social affairs to "at-

tract amid entertain" University students.

NSA Rejoined

At this meeting the Senate also voted to reaflfiliate -with the Na- tional Student Association (NSA).

Alfred was a member of NSA until it resigned two years ago.

The two proposals presented t o t h e Senate concerning revised cur- lew hours for women and alcohol

at social functions were unanlk tnously approved by the Senate . When the fraternity bloc opposed

the third proposal regarding women to men's apartments, Bill Vanech, Senate President, argued

•the such objections should be rais- ,ed by the Interfr&ternity Coun-

cil and not toy the Senate.

T h e revisions to the proposal concerning alcohol on campus were a consequence otf recommendations made by the student personnel committee which is now discussing this proposal prior to

making recommendation to the Board otf Trustees^.

The revised proposal states that permission be granted t o serve alcoholic beverages a t social functions in Unnrersity buildings.

In this wayr campus groups having the personnel deans' approv- a l can serve alcohol a t their social activities.

Vote Near?

Larry Adlerstein, chairman of the student rights committee, said

that he hopes the student personnel committee will vote on t h e first proposal soon and thiait t h e vote will be a favorable one.

Adlersteiin said that President Drake has given him confidence that the Board of Trustees wilt discuss the proposal and t a k e action as quickly las possible-

According to Adlerstein, meetings with the Board of Trustees committee on student affairs are in the process of being a»rramged, so thait i t cam discuss the recommendations, of the student personnel oammitteeu

Dr. Daniel Blase, associate professor of research in the College of Ceramics a n d chairman of the student personnel committee, stated previously that the committee had not yet decided whether it will present eacto proposal individually to the Trustees committee or if it will wait until all three proposals have been -noted on and make a single recommendation.

Rebate Given Women Living in Crowded Rooms

University women who lived (three i n rooms designed for two students to Bridk or Kruson dormitories last semester reoeived a

$20 rebate on their room charges ifor the semester.

According to University Treas- urer Edward K. Lebohner, 180 girls received the rebates. He explained that only those girls that lived i n the crowded conditions for the largest part of the semester were eligible for the rebate.

The University also announced t h a t those women t h a t lived three in a room in both dormitories between now and spring recess

would receive $20 rebates after the vacation.

Lebohner said that although (this was not the first year the dormitories were overcrowded It was the first occasion that rebates

were made available. He explained that the policy was (instituted because more students than ever before were involved to the overcrowding.

Although the semester room

•rent is $160, Lebohner said that the costs could not be pro-rated because the rooms suffered more wear when three women ived in them.

The overcrowding in the women's residences is expeoted to be eased in 1966 upon the completion of a new dormitory. The dormitory, which is p a r t of the first priority of the master plan, will toe looated on Sayles Street across f r o m Alumni Hall. I t is expected t h a t architect's drawings of the new dormitory will be available in the near future.

The de4th of John Nelson Norwood saddens the entire Al- fred community. Those among us that are undergraduates did not have the opportunity to know Dr. Norwood personally, or the greater opportunity to study under him. However by un- derstanding the present position of Alfred and realizing the difficult years in which Dr. Norwood was University president, we can easily appreciate his service to the school.

Directing the University through the lean depression years and running into the shortage of students in war time, Dr.

Norwood managed to build the University. But more than building, Dr. Norwood maintained the character and integrity of the University so that it could build further and more productively in the post-war years. One need not have been alive during his presidency to appreciate his success in the face of historical adversities.

J. Nelson Norwood's presence in the past twenty years, as president emeritus,, provided a link to the old Alfred Acad- emy and the formative years of the University. It may well be, as Dr. Crawford has said, the end of an era in Alfred's his- tory. The new era will be measured by the success and fulfill- ment of the master plan but the dedication to Alfred that Dr.

Norwood manifested. ..will be essential if the new era is "to succeed.

# # # # *

It is not inconsistent to note at this time that the Univer- sity development fund committee members met in New York City last weekend. To raise the money for Alfred's new era is necessary to a realization of the high ideals of the master plan.

"We trust that the fund raising campaign has begun with some measure of success. Furthermore, we look forward in the next few weeks to announcements about definite plans for sev- eral of the first priority structures of the master plan. These would include the women's dormitory, the classroom and lab- oratory building, and the physical education center, all of which are scheduled for completion in 1966.

* * * * #

The student personnel committee has given careful and thoughtful consideration to 'the proposals of the student rights committee. It should be expected that -the personnel commit- tee will be in a position to make a recommendation to 'the Board of Trustees within two weeks. We can only assume that .the justification for the proposals concerning a liberal- ization in the social rules has been favorably received by the personnel committee.

Providing that

1

, the committee elects to make a favorable recommendation to the Board it does not seem unreasonable to expect action by the executive committee of the Board early this semester. Time consuming consideration is inevitable, but undue delays will reflect unfavorably on the members of the University administration whom we look to with respect and confidence.

Reasonable patience is required of the students, but this does not mean that it should be necessary to postpone final action until a full meeting of the Board of Trustees. The ex- ecutive committee of that group has the power and good judg- ment to act on the recommendations which will be made by the personnel committee.

One quote is worth a thousand thoughts (maybe). Anyway, when thinking about organizationalism, one quote comes im- mediately to mind. It's a television announcement (in my opin- ion, the television announcement of the year): "Starting this week, World War One moves to Sunday."

Meanwhile, here, a certain Pseudo-Cum Laude has devised a new brain game, called:Personal Capital Letters (or P.C.L.).

This game is an offshoot of the basic premise that we all lead Private Creative Lives.

The game consists of choosing a group of letters, and from there on out breaking all thoughts down into slogans for which these letters could stand. Usually three letters are chosen be- cause this low number forms both a challenge and a Practical Creative Limit (an artificially imposed security of sorts).

^ "H" •3S* 'ifc

Why do such games appeal to us?

We (the students) are indecisive, flexible, adaptable, and[, above all, individuals. We are Searching. For what? Well, as one student put it (and this is a microcasm, iso you may un- derline it): "I am perpetually searching for someone who will love me for myself alone and not ¡for my personality." In short, we're tmixed up. We don't know what we want. But we'll settle for security. (The University itself is an artificially imposed state of security, but, for some reason, we'll take more).

Herein, then lies the danger-of the game, of all such games. It could become more than a game; it could become a way of life. Thus: disaster.

* * # # *

One can see the P.C.L. as Potentially Creating Labyrinths in which People Cannot Live but can only Perpetuate Con- trolled Labelling. It would (degenerate into various Personal Childish Languages which 'would be Precious, Cute, Laborious and little more.

But: Personalities, Creativity, and Life itself are too vast.

One cannot Place Convenient Labels on everything. Doing so (breaking all thoughts down into slogans) would be Prosti- tuting Cultural Learning with all Philosophical Conclusions Lost. '

Above all, it's unrealistic. 'In the words of the beat, one can have an ordered mind, but it won't arrive.

Apartment Rules Challenged

The Woman's Government Association Executive Council last month began preparing a recommendation which will modify a rule prohibiting coeds from visiting a man's apart- ment or motel room.

This recommendation for amendment to the rule will be presented to the faculty's Student Affairs Committee early next month, according to WGA president Dana Hanna, senior of Dunn. i

The WGA held group discussions among all interested coeds last week to obtain ideas for possible modification of the apartment rule.

From these discussions, the WGA will prepare a question- naire on the apartment situation to be distributed to women students.

From responses to the questionnaire, the WGA will present the coeds' sentiments along with a suggested course of action to the Student Affairs Committee.

Miss Hanna said this recommendation "will not ask for repeal of the apartment rule because it is a college rule Even if we had the jurisdiction to repeal the rule, I feel sure it would not pass the Student Affairs Committee."

Many women students have complained that the present rule is too negative and inflexible in nature.

Betsy Winstead, senior of Roxboro, said "the rule is negatively expressed which seldom accomplishes anything. It is better to trust people with a positive approach, for a nega- tive one incites negative behavior."

Likewise, Sharon Cox, junior of Hyattsville, Md., said that

while Wake is "a Christian college and should instill proper

values, this cannot be accomplished by rules that fail to con-

sider various situations and ignore integrity of coeds."

Cheating Among US University Students More Common than Usually Recognized

colleges and universities is a lot more widespread than we like to admit, according to a recent survey of deans and students conducted by Columbia University.

The survey, which was made, public in the wake of a cheating scandal at the U.S. Air Force Academy which involved over 100 cadets revealed that:

—The amount of academic dis- mornesty in colleges Is "grossly underestimated" by students, student 'body presidents, and deans.

—Only a small proportion of those who cheat are caught and punished.

Religion at Alfred Seen As IndividualI Rebellious

by Beverly Bangma Dr. Bernstein believes that

"tmore college students than not ttiimk of religion as a spare on a car—it's nice to hiave in case you get a flat." Furthermore,- he thinks that most college students are skeptical albout prayer and idhuiridh services iis an expression that their non-attendianice of ot their natural rebellion.

But I have personally found that, although most students at Alfred rarely attend church, they are still very religious. They are searching tor a philosophical meaning to their own lives. The Rev. Mr.. Charles Kinrie, direct- or of the Cooperative Board for Christian Campus Ministry, finds students even more religious than their parents. He considers their rebellion against institutional re- Igion justifiable since the churches are letting them down spirit- ually. The mdmistens seem to be aniare concerned with full atton- deauce and building new churches than in stressing religious teachings, Mr. Kinzie said.

Many of today's parents attend church ether Cram force of habit, just to bring-up their children in their own religion, or for social appearances. Few go for their own spiritual betterment. To them, religion is just one compartment in their live®, hairing little to do iwiith their daily activities. Col- lege students, whio naturally reason deeply into the "whys'" of life, are revolted by this, and

¡eventually stop attending and supporting church. They don't want what their parents have — they want something more pure

and basic.

In our material society, however, where people cam. satisfy themselves with objects instead of ideas, It is hard for these stu-

dents to find anything spiritual.

Thejyt may join the civil rights Imovemelnt, tout in the church, where the real moral leadership should lie, they find nothing. This leads many students either to try having their own individual religion apart firom the ohiurch or to despair. After college they may juist forget the church altogether or assume the haibitual worship of their parents, pushing religion into a small .compartment of their lives.

Letter to the, Editor

—Schools with Honor systems a r e less apt to h a r e a high level of cheating than those witb other

arrangements for control.

Elements of school quality are associai ed with low levels of dheatlng.

The survey was conducted by William J. Bowers of Columbia University's Bureau of Applied Social Research, under a grant from the cooperative research program of the UjS. Office of Educa- tion.

Its conclusions are 'based on (1) answers by more than 600 college deans and more than 500 student body presidents to a 61 item questionnaire and (2) answers by 5,

422 students in 99 colleges and universities across t h e country to a 72 item questionnaire.

Dishonesty Common The report said that perhaps ithe "most alarming finding" concerned "the prevalence of academic • dishonesty on American college campuses." It said "at least

•half the students in the sample have engaged in some form of aca-

demic dishonesty' «ince coming to college," and termed this a conservative estimate.

"The magnitude of the problem is grossly underestimated toy members of the campus community;,"

the report said. "Two and a half times as many students have- cheated as student ¡body presl- idests estimate, and more than three times as many have cheated as deans estimate. Even students themselves underestimate the proportion of students who have oheaked at some time; they tend to believe that only half as many have cheated as Hheir self-reports indicate."

Little Enforcement The report said that only a rel- atively small percentage of the cheaters are caught and punished, and in most cases, only lenient pun/ishments are given out.

"Seldom are students suspended or dismissed for violating norms of academic, integrity, despite the fact that authorities consider this is a serious disciplinary viola- itSon," it said.

It added although students vary

"in the extent to which they dis- approve of cheating," most agree

that it is wrong "on moral

grounds, not simply because It

¡may have unfortunate practical consequences."

The report said that "those who have difficulty adjusting to the role of student as evidenced toy poor study habits and low grades, are indeed more likely to cheat (than the good students . . . ," but

"when we control for other factors associated with cheating in college, academic performance has only) a minor effect."

Social Pressres

"Those who value the social aspects of college life are more apt to cheat than 'those who empha- size intellectual interests and activities, even when we take their academic4' performance into account," it said.

It said college students "who a r e more 'deeply involved lint the adolescent society not only cheated in high school but also tend to continue cheating in college."

The report said the most important factor In determining changes in cheating behavior between high school and college "is the level of disapproval of cheating among the student's college peers. Students who cheated in Ihlgh school tout attend colleges with strong climates of disapprov-

al of cheating are likely t o give it up, and conversely, students who

did not cheat in high school tout go to colleges with weak climates of disapproval are apt to begin cheating in college," It said.

It said the important thing was that one's "fellow students disap- prove of cheating," and said "nor- mative constraints from peers"

have a much greater effect on cheating than do "personal value- orientations toward college adjust- ment to academic demands."

Smaller Schools

The relpiort said, however, that cheating was less likely to occur at smaller colleges, with a low faculty-student ratio and high aca-

demic standards than at a big school. Highly selective, schools also appear to have less cheating than others.

It said that "the level of cheating is much lower a t schools that place primary responsibility for dealing with cases of academic dishonesty in 'the hands of the students and their elected representatives, as under the honors system, than a t schools that rely on faculty-centered control or have a form or mixed control, In which faculty and students jointly participate."

Periodical Thieves Demonstrate Honesty Not Measurable by IQ

To the Editor of the Fiat Lux:

May I use the columns of your campus newspaper to rehearse a grievance coming out of our aca- demlic community?

The following periodicals are being withdrawn from ithe open shelves In the Browsing Room of the Herrick Memorial Library because of consistent thefts: Sports Illustrated, Evergreen Review,

Journal of the History of Ideas, Modern Fiction Studies; and Par- tisan Review. Judging by the ti- tles, we have elitist scoundrels among us. We should congratulate ourselves. The IQ of petty thieves is rWing while the level of their honesty is sinking. The observa- tion sheds gloomy light on the nature of education.

A stolen magazine means a broken run; a ¡broken rum means we can't bind the annual volume;

an incomplete volume means that students seeking information now and in the future are deprived of the chance.

A stolen magarihe or book means the equivalent of money taken from a library budget that

your college administration works hard to secure, that many of your teachers work hard to adminis- ter, and that your librarians work istill harder to supervise. The [money-hurt is nothing like the moral insult to the academic community of the losses themselves.

IShall we have guards a t the doors of your library? Shall we.

put our learning materials toe- hind cages and under lock and key? 'Shall we frisOi you for se- creted books as you go through ithe turnstile on your way out of your (library? Shall we monitor you—'Big Brother IStyle—as if you were all potential book rob- bers? ©hall we live in a garrison society with substitute policemen everywhere present to symbolize a dormant or perverse conscience?

H you want an honest world to live in, look to yourselves, here, mow. Policemen will not hand it to you. Your honest, decent world (begins with you.

Sincerely,

Prof. Melvin H. Bernstein Chairman, Faculty Library Committee

Student Senate elections being only a month away, it is not too soon to speculate as to the possible candidates for each office and to predict the outcome of each campaign. Specula- tions of this sort generally approrach accuracy because by this time most of the prospective participants have made their presence and availability obvious during Senate meetings.

Activity 4n the Senate is/characterized by inaction during the first semester and a perceptible quickening in pace after the semester break. While this increased activity cannot be wholly described as a result of campus 'politicians" seeking support through Senate-directed deeds, it certainly provides the means for an outlet of their campaigning.

The contest for the presidency involves a variable factor, namely, Dave Miller's candidacy for either the IFC or Sen- ate presidency. He is qualified for both positions, but obviously can hold only one. He has served on both organizations and could handle either job effectively. Until his decision is known, an accurate prediction cannot be attempted.

Howard Wiener, although perhaps less obvious in his avail- ability, is nevertheless to be considered a potential and a well- qualified candidate. He is currently chairman of the academic policy committee and, as a member of the executive committee^

is aware of the inner working of the Senate.

However, Wiener will be at somewhat of a disadvantage running against Miller or any other candidate supported by Klan Alpine. If Miller declares his candidacy for Senate presi- dent, Klan is certain to support him and wage an all-out cam- paign. Even if Miller does not run, Klan may continue its policy of presenting candidates for a wide range of offices.

And this effort makes any Klan nominee more difficult to de- feat.

The vice-presidency is a more wide-open race and is there- fore more difficult to analyze. The three most likely candi- dates for tliis office are Warner Dailey, Tom Hainm, and BiS West. Dailey was just recently appointed student affairs coor- dinator and has demonstrated considerable ability in this Ca- pacity. West was elected student affairs coordinator but de- cined for personal reasons. Hamm is presently co-chairman of the activities coordinating committee and has served effective- ly there.

However, these three could be challenged by either Steve

•Constantinides or Douglas Eadie, who were both instrumental in the formation of the independent council. If the council makes significant progress within the next month, one or both of them might run for Senate office.

Since the Senate has re-affiliated with the National Stu-

dent Association (NSA), it is conceivable that the NSA coor-

dinator would replace the position of student affairrs coordin-

ator. Dailey might choose to run for this office. He may be

opposed by Bob Johnson, a freshman who has indicated aa

avid interest in this area of student government.

Show. Miss Zacconi was the mis- tress of ¡ceremonies.

I had heard of Miss Zacconi before, but had never seen her (ex- cept in a codpie of plays, and then she wasn't really herself, but was someone else.) Steve Skeates, Fiat columnist, had men- tioned her on a couple occasions,

describing Iher as "a somewhat conservative girl who did not want to change certain things."- But that was a(bouit all I knew.

In view of this, I decided to Interview said Elaine Zacconi. I Hirst we nit to the Alfred Bureau of Records and found thsit Miss Zacconi was a senior nurse who lived in tBTe Castle. I went there.

anercial about Lux Liquid, the sin- nous grace of Morticia Addams, ithe vivacity of Anne Bancroft, the

wit of Lois Harrington, the ban- ality of Steve Skeates, the brains of Jon Ad'ler, the |kindness of Haz- el Humphrey, the immovability of Alumni Hall, and the puickish quality of a chipmunk were some of the qualities Miss Zacconi told me she had.

After she lhad introduced herself thusly, I asked her for her opinion on "tolerance" for I had heard,. via Mr. Skeates, that thlis was something she felft' very strongly about.

"Tolerance is a word that is bandied about in what we like to think of our liberal society, as something that is desirable to feel. This is wrong. Tolerance im- plies putting up with instead of a social acceptance. And the fa at that Tolerance has come to mean what it has is a judgment on us.

And, I'm talking about all socie- ties and • all issues about which this word is used."

I next asked her about nurs- ing, her chosen field. "It's a pro- fession tlhat you can really get sloppily sentimental about. And it can break iy|ou, because there are so many basics involved—birth, death, the miracle of the human body, etc. If you have a command over yourself, it can be the great- est thing in which to involve yourself."

Finally, I aslked for her mes- sage for the world. "Become then be." And, that was It. I said good-bye to Miss Zacconi and headed back to t h e office.

This attitude was shared by Dr.

Crawford who said that among Dr. Norwood's finest contributions to Alfred was his inspiration as a teacher. Dr. Crawford noted that both he and University Pres. M.

Ellis Drake were former pupils of

" Dr. Norwood's and said that they 'can appreciate the late president

€ February 9, 1965

It's been written that "variety is the spice of life."

But at many companies it's difficult to obtain a wide range of work experiences. A college gradu- ate can join a company, get locked into one type of activity and stay there and stay there and

stay

there. That's not the way we do it at Ford Motor Company where our young men may work in several areas to develop their full capabilities. We believe that a thorough grounding in many phases of our business is one of the best ways to cultivate management talent. An example: Bob Anderson of our finance staff.

Since Bob came to us in July, 1963, he's been actively involved in five important areas of the Company. As a member of our finance staff, he has reviewed budget and cost programs of a division marketing cars, another manufacturing tractors and subsidiaries engaged in automobile financing and insurance. In addition, Bob was selected to assist in the 1964 national labor-management negotiations. His present assignment is as a staff budget analyst for product engineering and styling.

Because of experiences like these, Bob will be able to channel his career toward the activity that interests him most.

As a large automobile concern, Ford Motor Company needs people who can handle a wide variety of assignments. Our college graduates come to us with all types of educational backgrounds. And many of them move into management positions unrelated to their degrees. If a fast-moving career appeals to you, see our representative when he visits your campus..

He may have the spice for your future.

Alfred Shooters Lose to Allegheny

Sfcxxm shooters travelled to Al- legheny College Saturday to face the Gators riffle team. Theiy went down to defeat 1394 to 1390.

The teami suffered from the home team's different targets and scoring system. Alfred uses the international form of scoring and

targets, whale tJhe home team used standard targets. The home team sets the rules, so the Sax- ons were forced to shoot in un- familiar conditions.

. Coupled with these odd sur- roundings was the loss of Dan Lepore, second beat rifleman on the team. These two handicaps could easily account for the four point loss, out of almost 2,800 total points.

Tlhe iSaxons, with a 4-3 reoord, go against St. Bonaventure Fri- day at home. They .then travel to Cornell to fire d-n a quadrangle meet.

Saxon Sports

by Chris John Woychak, coming on strong since the beginning of the season, has established himself along with Phil Vance, as tlhe best pair of Saxon guards in the past decade.

Bach is a good all-around type of hall player. They both can pass, sihoot, play offense and apply pres- sure ait defense at all times.

Phil Vance showed potential in. the second half of last year, (finishing up most of the games at guard last season. Woydhak was receiving his baptism of fire in college ball as a starter at guard on the frosh squad.

This year they were teamed up by Bob Baker as the startling backcourt men. He hasn't regret- ted it. Woychak and Vance have played ian important part in the

Saxon record of 12 and 4.

Of the two, Phil Vance has proved to be it/he better scorer. His two-hand set shot has given the Saxons an outside punch. During the season he has had many hot nights ¡from his guard position, for example his 18 against Alle- gfheniyi.

Woychak, a sophomore, hasn't been rolling up the points dur- nng the season. But 'Saturday he

showed he could pour in the points from his slot. His total was 13, chasing the foul line blues he has been suffering by sinking 9 out of 11 from the free throw line. In the future the defense won't he able to overplay him in ioul situations, if he keeps un this

Rodier

steady foul shooting.

Each has his own specialties,- but their teamwork is tlhe big factor in their, play. On offense"

John and Phil set up blocks for "

the other to drive off frequently.

Eiiiher of the two c,an pick apart a defense with itheir passing and driving lay-nips: Together they make the fast break work for eanyi buckets. When the stall is called for, Vance1' and Woychak can keep the ball moving, even when covr red- by.* two or three men who are trying to steal the ball.

On defence, they excel. Each lis - blessed with fast'•• h a n d s light- ning rrflexes.n-AB'd good (timing. - Pressuring the defense is what is expected of tjhem, and they force'

* -""vherft on ttíé court they are a threat tó! intercept a pass or rob the ball. Nine times out of ten when, they double lieam an opponent, lys's(l going to lose pos- session of the 'ball.

This duo will rein-aim ¡intact for | the next year, giving Coach Bak- er a core of experience to build on. After a year of being teamed*' together tlhey will be even better:
