A.U. Graditale Suggests Plan to Ad vance Justice
T h e Southern Tier should h a v e its own police laboratory said Her- b e r t L. MacDonell of Corning, a consultant for law enforcement agencies, told a meeting of Allegany County officers at the Alfred Uni- versity Campus Center o n Wednes- d a y night April 27.
¡MacDonell spoke on "Criminal- istics" which he defined as "the Bcience of applying other sciences to the investigation of crime." The speaker is senior chemist for Cor- n i n g Glass Works and a Consultant /for several state, county, and local law enforcement agencies.
He told Allegany County Dis- t r i c t Attorney Norman B. Fitzer a n d a number of police chiefs t h a t local police laboratories have a
"very definite advantage over state- Wide coverage toy a single labora- tory." Hte said a iSouthern Tier laboratory would afford police a- igencies in t h e area greater conven- ience, f a s t e r analysis of physical evidence, and would relieve the bur- den of the S t a t e Laboratory in Al- bany.
(MacDonell said t h a t local labor- atories may be established by joint city-county goverments, the offices of District Attorney or Coroner,
the Sheriff'« iDepartmant, Hospi- tals, Universities, or any comlbina- tlon of those offices, agencies, * or institutions.
Wider application of Criminalis- tics would bring m a n y criminals to justice, he added. I t also would re- sult in considerable savings in court costs, h e added, because
"many cases never oome to trial in the face of incontestable incrim- inating evidence."
MacDonell is a graduate of Al- fred University and earned his Mas- t e r ' s Degree from the University of Rhode Island. He also is a grad- uate of the police t r a i n i n g course in Basic Criminalistics given by t h e Department of Attorany Gen- eral: of the S t a t e of Rhode Island.' He has taught both chemistry and criminalistices at the University of Rhode Island, the latter offered only for law enforcement agencies of the state.

Knight Enigma May Be Solved
W h e r e is t h e Black Knight? W h y h a s n ' t it miade its appearance on t h e campus yet this apring?
The Black Knight, the sympol of t h e spirit of the even classes, is a small figure of a knight in armour hich wfas salvaged from t h e hood of a n ancient wood stove by the class of 1910. Since t h e n its been known a s the "Iron Knight of Even Numbers."
Traditionally the spirit of the even classes, it was coveted by the odd classes who attempted to cap- t u r e it every year w h e a the even classes 'brought it out of hiding f o r the annual Kanakadea picture.
M a n y hard struggles resulted as classes battled for t h e mascot.
Following t h e "big b a t t l e of "22, t h e whrealbouts of t h e Black Knight h a s been uncertain. Last year, however t h e Class of 1960 proud- ly displayed a figure of t h e Black Knight which t h e y claimed to be t h e original (despite t h e object- ions of certain alumni who shall remain ananymouis).
, T h e c u r r e n t knight was dug up in t h e back yard of Mrs. Richard W e s t in the summer of 1957.

Voice of Alfred Past
by Howard Miller
Delving into our morgue, hidden in the dim recesses of Herrick Memorial Library, I have uncover- ed some fasinating information con- cerning life in Alfred a quarter of a century ago. The following comes f r o m the F i a t Lux, issue of May 7, 19®5.
A discussion concerning the re- vision of WjS.G. rules was the big inews of the week. T h e rule which said t h a t "any college woman, other t h a n a senior, going out of town
limits with a n escort in the eve- ning must be accompanied by a senior women" was being consid- ered for revision so t h a t junior I women would be allowed to ride
in cars without chaperones.
Other proposer changes concern- ed late permissions and smoking i privileges. The women wanted late permissions on, movie nights ex- tended beyond 11:00 p.m. so th'at t h e y could see the entire show, and t h e possibility of allowing girls to [smoke on campus was being dis-
!cussed. I think it can be admitted t h a t some progress has been made in t h e past 25 years.
Among other newsworthy events was a roit in the Brick. It seems t h a t the Frosh got restless and in- vaded the rooms of the Sophs, over-*
t u r n i n g beds, piling desks in halls, and sacking closets.
In retaliation, the Sophs gave free showers to a n y Frosh in sight, and the a f f a i r ended in "a free-for- all, with oombattants scratching, biting, and rolling on the floor, and throwing water." Come to t h i n k of it, times haven't changed so much a f t e r all.

The prize-winning paper is en- titled "A Study of the Surface Dur- ability of Vitreous Enamels. "The
! research on which the paper was based was done at the .College of
Cerlamics under the supervision of Dr. Harold E. Simpson, Professor of Glass Technology. Dr. Simpson explained t h a t .Smith developed a test to evaluate the durability of
vitreous enamel surfaces by adapt- ing techniques previously developed to test durability of glass surfaces.
The enamelled surfaces were placed in a cyclic humidity chamber where they were subjected to alternated fogging and clearing in an atmos- phere resulting a 10% solution of hydrochloric a t id.
Dr. Simpson said t h a t "the work represents a study t h a t is of vital importance to the entire glass and porcelain enamel industry in regard to evaluating lasting qualities of this glassy finish."
The activities of Spanish Week drew to a close Sunday night, April 24, a s Dr. SeidMn reminisced over his two months in Chile.
Down there as a member otf t h e S t a t e Department h e had a "Job
to do". Along with t h r e e other men, Dr. Seidilin w a s to set up Centralized Institutes for Univer- sity of Concepcion in Chile. His
"field was m a t h e m a t i c s " while others were concerned with Insti- tutes in Biology, Physics, a n d Chemistry.
The University of Concepcion is composed of seven s e p a r a t e col- leges, each doing "its own Work."
Dr. Seidlin was to "build a n Insti- tute of Mathematics f o r the stu- dents of all the Colleges in the University.", He f i r s t "convinced t h e seven deans" t h a t this central- ized system was better t h a n the system they had previously worked with.
Because h e Was in Chile in an official capacity, his time a s a
"tourist" was constrained. Also, of his official capacity, his con- tacts with the Chilean people were subsequently different frojn those of the average visiting American.
He never was t h e recipient of a n y anti-Amerioan sentiment; on the contrary, he "always received warm receptions."
Regarding his personal reactions, Seidlin called the Chilean tongue
"a singing language." H e said, however, t h a t it hiad taken time to a t t u n e himself to the sound of
"Chileno".

Seidlin spoke about "two class- es" of society—the professionals a n d the poor. "The poor", he said,
"lived with an extreme poverty."
A strong social security p r o g r a m a t t e m p t s to "provide for the poorer element."
Speaking about Chilean industry, Seidlin discussed the steel mills—
pointing out that they aTe owned a n d operated by Chilenos. T h e r e a r e .two iron mines, both of which
"run into a n d under the ocean."
The country is rich in nitrates, m u c h of which is exported, but surprisingly enough they do not use as much of the inineral a s t h e circumstances would seem to w a r . rant.
The city in which he worked—•
Concepcion—is a city of betweten million people. In 1939 a n earthquake demolished Concepcion and killed 40,000 but in tenty y e a r s
"they Wave rebuiR it into a w o n d e r of wonders."
Seidilin described his s t a y in Chile ae a wonderful experience—
he "got to like the place v e r y m u c h " a n d is "still with them."
j. hese are the silver wings of a U. S. Air Force Navigator. As a flying officer on the Aerospace team, he has chosen a career of leadership, a career that has meaning, rewards and executive opportunity.
The Aviation Cadet Program is the gateway to this career. To qualify for this rigorous and pro- fessional training, a high school diploma is required; however, tWo- or more years of college are highljr desirable. Upon completion of the program the Air Force encourage»
the new officer to earn his degree so he can better handle the respon- sibilities of his position. This in- cludes full pay and allowances while taking off-duty courses un- der the Bootstrap education pro- gram. The Air Force will pay a substantial part of all tuition costs.
After having attained enough credits so that he can complete course work and residence require- ments for a college degree in 6 months or less, he is eligible to apply for temporary duty at the school of his choice.
If you think you have what it takes to earn the silver wings of an Air Force Navigator, see your local Air Force Recruiter. Ask him about Aviation Cadet Navi- gator training and the benefits which are available to a flying officer in the Air Force. Or fill in and mail this coupon.

One Day Out. Weighed anchor
and set sail in search of a filter cigarette that really tastes like a cigarette. Grew thinks this is wild
goose chase. \
One Week Out. Have sightedmany filter cigarettes and smoked same. Crew still thinks the world is fiat.
One Month Out. Discovered
New World of smoking pleasure:
Winston! It is the only cigarette with a modern filter plus Filter- Blend— rich, golden tobaccos not only specially selected, but also
specially processed for filter smok-ing. Crew now thinks this is a pleasure cruise.
One Year Out. Crew has muti-
nied. Refuses to go back to the Old World (non-Winston Hemisphere).
I agree. Therefore I am founding a colony called Filter-Blend. Colony's motto will be:
Winston tastes good...like a cigarette should!
