ROBERT LOCKE GRIFFIN '32 KILLED

INSTANTLY IN MOTORCYCLE SMASHUP

Motorcycle Jumps Out Of Control, Tossing Rider

Into Ditch

Robert L. Griffin, a member of the Junior Class, was instantly lulled last Thursday evening at 9:00 P. M. on the Elm Valley road when his motorcycle jumped on to a soft embank- ment, bucking him into a ditch.

Griffin, who had borrowed the police motorcycle from his cousin, Traffic Officer Clarence Dungan '32, set out for a trial spin. It is believed that he started to coast down the hill and that, as the machine gained speed, he was unable to hold the cycle to the pavement. While taking a slight curve, it is thought that he misjudged black colored macadam in the dark- ness.

Among the earliest arrivals at the scene of the accident were DeForest W. Truman and family, who were re- turning to Alfred from a motor ride to Andover. Truman noticed the police motorcycle which was lying across the road with its lights turned on.

Believing that something was amiss, Mr. and Mrs. Truman, accompanied by a nearby resident, Mr. Axel Olson, hurried back to the motorcycle. Find- ing that the machine was somewhat damaged, the trio began a search for further evidences of the accident.

Fifty feet further up the road, Grif- fin's body was discovered lying across a ditch. Deep furrows in the road- side served to show the details of the smash-up.

Miss Lydia Conover arrived from the college Infirmary and hastily ex- amined the body. She found that Griffin's skull had been crushed and that one of his arms had been broken.

The examination revealed that lie had been dead about thirty minutes.

Funeral services were conducted last Sunday afternoon at 3:00 P. M.

in Griffins home at Arkport, with Rev.

Carpenter of the Presbyterian church officiating. Shirley Travis '32, spoke at some length in behalf of the Uni- versity and student body. Several of Griffin's classmates were in atten- dance including, Annette Clifford, president; and William Fuller, vice president. Among the remaining visitors from the college were Professor Conroe and Dr. Campbell, Michael Durante, Shirley Travis, Clarence Dungan and Paulina Marks.

Griffin had gained honors in both football and track. He had only recently become eligible for election to Eta Mu Alpha, honorary scholastic society. ,**•

WARNS FRESHMEN'

J. Wilbur Carr

K In the past there has been quite a

; bit of inconvenience and possibly in- j justice caused by indefiniteness and in- i accuracy on the part of the accuser j turning in misdemeaners to be cor- i rected by the campus court. Through- out this school year the court kindly : requests that the accusers use a stand- i ard and uniform form in turning in I any misdemeaners. The form should state specifically the time, date and place of the offence—thus

Name of Offender Offence

Time of day Place Date

The court also requests that no one use the campus court as a medi- um to play "pranks" or "pull jokes"

en their friends or otherwise. For example: Last year a case was brought before the court in which an upper-

| classman snatched the cap of a frosh and then turned in his name to cam-

pus court, charging him with not wearing his frosh cap. We have had many cases similar to this one.

The aim of the Campus Court is to do a service to the student body in apprending misdemeaners coming under its scope. With the co-operation of the student body, especially in the two matters above, we perdict a suc- ' cessful year for the court.

Judge of Campus Court.

Wallace Me Call From Hornell Gives Speech

In Regular Assembly

The Rev. Wm. Wallace McCall was the speaker at the regular Thursday morning assembly held October 2. in Alumni Hall. The assembly program was opened by Professor Wingate, who led the student body in song and made several announcements relevant to the music department. Dean Nor- wood, previous to introducing the speaker of the day, made several an- i nouncements including the decision reached by the faculty last January, that the Thanksgiving holiday had been reduced to one day beginning Wednesday night, November 26, and ending Friday morning, November 28.

Mr. McCall spoke on "Apprecia- tion". He said, "appreciation of the people about us is necessary to any

! understanding and before criticizing ] anyone else always try to get the other person's point of view in order to appreciate them. He brought out the notable example of the Epistles of St. Paul the Apostle. He said of j them, "You'll never appreciate the Epistles if you think of them merely as epistles, however if you consider j that they are the letters of a warm J hearted pastor to his friends and read them with that in mind you will bg more likely to appreciate them". He illustrated his talk with many ex- amples of where appreciation is necessary, and in closing he said, "The art of living with our fellow men is the first prime essential in Ap- j preciation."

PI ALPHA HOLDS FIRST PARTY OF

SOCIAL SEASON

On Saturday night to the strains of Mooney's Blue Moon Orchestra, Pi Alpha Pi made merry in the first so- rority party of the season.

In a house very tastefully decorated with autumn leaves and lighted by candles, everyone present enjoyed themselves and also the cider and doughnuts which were served during the intermission.

Doris Marley from Theta Theta Chi was among the guests. John and Charles Neilson came up from Port Chester, as well as "Sid" Leonard from Buffalo, Bill Muller from Ithaca came for the dance.

The faculty guests were Miss Larkin and Professor and Mrs. Charles Har- der.

"What's in a name?" said "Bill"

Shakespeare. "Plenty", says "Bill"

Bottum. Plenty, when there are women involved. Bill, the second, conscientiously collects names. He really specializes in the names of those who fail to see and do their duty on the campus.

Such endeavor really is fine because the campus must be cared for and who could be better fitted for these duties than the verdant Frosh—to gain a chance to work into an intimate acquaintance with their new alma mammy?

Very good, but for once "Bill" was overly conscientious and "rang in"

two of the ladies for these arduous tasks. That was hardly gentlemanly of him; woman's place is at the Brick's telephone-booth (70-Y-3) and not galloping hither and yon over the campus trying to make herself useful.

It is the opinion of the inmates of Ladies Hall that "Bill" had better do a little quiet detective and research

I work before he posts names which are

! the least bit ambiguous. In the long run it will pay him by lessening the possibility of embarrassment to both himself and the ladies.

In the event that "Bill" is innocent of this as well as many other things,

! this charge can be relayed to his J hard-working assistants, "Bob" Holl- enbeck and "Freddy" Morse. It is a well-known fact that a gco'd admini-

! strator always makes his help do all of the work. Knowing Bottum as he is, it is highly probable Chat one of the other two conceived of this in- genuous reform.

CAMPUS COURT

At the opening meet of the Campus Court held in Kenyon Hall, Tuesday, September 30, two Freshmen were tried. Milton Burg and Matthew Eskeli were found guilty of not reporting for campus duties, and sentenced the usual penalty of a fine of fifty ' cents.

The Bartlett Memorial Dormitory which was put under construction last July is now taking form rapidly. The foundation work which also was aided by last summer's dry season, is practically completed and the lower struc- ture is definitely under way.

L. C. Whitford of Wellsville, the general contractor for the job, plans to have the building ready for use by Septen/ier 1, but good weather per- mitting, the construction can he finished during the late spring of 1931.

The winter weather, however, gener- ally furnishes soggy underfooting on the hillside and the* spring rains only help to prolong these conditions so that an estimate of this winter's pro- gress can not be made with any basic facts.

Smith & Childs, Chicago architects, show plans of the dormitory which will offer plenty of rooming space for all Freshmen who may wish to make the new hall their quarters during their first year in Alfred. Provisions are also shown which will make the building amply comfortable and frea of fire hazards. The architects also plan to take care of any inconven- iences that may arise, due to damp- ness from the hillside's drainage.

Then with the new road, an exten- sion of State Street, the new dormitory and with the proposed new gym- nasium which will be situated as well on the east end of the Campus, the eastern section promises to be an ideal location for Fraternity Row. These proposals come in accordance with the plans of the "Dream Alfred" which are planned to assume a definite shape during the years to come.

During the past week, the Susan Howell Social Hall has been the center of campus activities. Every afternoon and evening has found a number of students enjoying the radio, the electrola, or games. The registration this week has been more than doubled.

Last week it was one hundred and forty, while this week about four hundred guests were registered.

Saturday afternoon many people enjoyed listening to the world series.

Saturday evening, Varick Nevins, the photographer for the Alfred Movie Corporation, showed an interesting series of scenes of Campus life. An added feature was Charlie Chapin in

"The Floor-walker".

During Mrs. Galloway's absence this week-end, Mrs. Boyce, Professor and Mrs. Boraas, Professor Bond, Profes- sor and Mrs. Burdett, Chaplain and Mrs. McLeod were hosts.

Next Tuesday evening, at seven- thirty, Mrs. Seidlin has consented to play the Steinway piano in the Hall It is the one which was owned by Resae Joseffy, a famous Hungarian composer, pianist and probably the most famous teacher in this country- After his death, the piano was done over iby the Steinway Company and given to Doctor Arthur Mees, a choral director, and Mrs. Ames' first husband.

Mrs. Ames has very kindly loaned the piano to the Social Hall for three years. Because of its interesting history and its value, the piano cannot be put into daily use.

At a meeting of the Hostess Com- mittee of the Susan Howell Social Hall, it was decided that for the present, the Hall should be open on school days from four to five-thirty P. M., and from seven to eight P. M. On Saturday and Sunday afternoons, the Hall will be open from three to six;

on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings from seven to ten.

Any college student or faculty member may enjoy the privileges of the Hall during these hours.

The only restriction of regular privileges will be on Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon and evening, when the forms of entertainment will be kept in harmony with the spirit of the days.

These dates and privileges are subject to change if deemed expedient for the best use and enjoyment of the Hall.

ALFRED STUDENT HAS INTIMATE ACQUAINTANCE WITH SILVER-STRIPED SKUNK; KITTY WOULD GET

WELFARE SOCIETY FOR SNUBBED CATS

They were both setting on the bench somewhere on the Alfred Campus. She thought everything was going 'ine.

Her companion was calm and in a pleasant mood when, out of the no- where into the here, a shout of ex- citement, derision, caution—well any- way a shout was uttered by the lad and his hand rudely—nay forcefully grabbed that of his fair companion.

Now what was she to do in such a ra.~e?

Well he was running as fast as he could, or at least as fast as one fellow can when he is hauling along with him about 2.000 pounds and she was more or less attached to this human who was being catapulted into space, either with his own volition or by some inner, more subtle, moving force.

So she in accordance with all the laws of physics or whatever it is that i regulates this unusual proceedure of

| motion, just followed right along.

| And then can you imagine the hurt j pride and the bruised feelings! It

was only a poor harmless little kitty with a beautiful white stripe down its back. Now this wild runner, in this awful worked up state of anger at the poor creature, instead of snubbing him so rudely, as he did, might (though it really seems he would not) have hurt the poor animal. So the Fiat Lux hereby thinks Alfred students should band together and form a society for the common welfare of snubbed kitties

FACULTY

President Boothe C. Davis return- ed home Tuesday, from the Battle Creek Sanitarium, Battle Creek, Michigan.

Due to illness. Miss Harris, of the language department, did not conduct her classes on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday of last week.

HOMECOMING DAY SET ON SATURDAY

Homecoming Day, the time so eagor- )y anticipated by all Alumni as an occasion to gather once more in Al- fred amid familiar scenes and faces, is to come this year at an earlier date. In former years the reunion has been held on a Friday afternoon, which made it impossible for nearly all teachers and some other members!

to be present. The change of the date from Friday, October 31st, to Satur- day, October ISth, of this year, has numerous advantages. It will allow the visitors ample time to arrive for the grand affair and it is hoped that because of this change, a greater at- tendance than ever before will be made possible. The annual Homo- coming Day banquet will be held at Hills Coffee Shoppe at six o'clock, followed by a night football game with Susquehanna at Merrill Field.

The night games here are an added attraction to the Alumni and should incite sufficient enthusiasm to make this day, October 181 h, one of the greatest Homecoming Days ever experienced on the Alfred Campus.

Student Life Holds Vote In Assembly

CAMPUS AND TOWN GET MANY CHANGES

The Alfred Campus and the village proper show a marked change, due to improvements in construction during the past year. It is estimated that over $50,000 has been expended over the summer on campus improvements alone.

South Main street, which has been curbed and paved, is now one of the most beautiful thoroughfares in the village The .South Main street ex- tension has also been paved as far as Elm Valley and it now offers a short route through the university town 'between Wellsville and Hornell. Ap- parently this feature has been noted as there has been a decided increase in traffic through the village.

University street on the Campus has been paved during the past two weeks as far as State Street, resulting in an improved appearance of the university gateway and of the surrounding campus as well. An eighth of a mile of new sidewalk has been added to the Campus and the heating system has been extended to four more college buildings. Arrangements have been settled to run the electric lighting and telephone wires underground in the heating system's tunnels to lessen the number of unsightly telephone poles as well.

The Susan P. Howell Social Hall has been completed at a cost of over

$25,000 and architects have been working for some time on the plans for the new Babcock Hall of Physics and the new- State School of Ceramics. • Nominations for the Student Life

Committee were made at a meeting of the Student Body after assembly, Thursday, October 2. The faculty nominees were:

Chaplain McLeod Professor Harris Professor Conroe Professor Seidlin Professor Crandall

The Student nominees were:

John Carr Henry Ellison Annette Clifford John Kickham Helen McCarthy James Sadler Kenneth Erwin Dale Lcekwood Garnet Blackmore William Clarke

Elections for the Student Life Com- mittee which is composed of three students, one elected by the faculty and two by the Student Body, and three faculty members, one elected by the Student Body and the two deans who are permanent .members, will be held Thursday, October 9, at assembly.

FIAT LUX, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1930 Page 3 TURNSTYLE

By Seamus

We left old Alfred when everything was green and return to find a typical Alfred fall as a cyclorama for our Al- ma Hater's finest year. But, before tliis curtain ire still have much green

—the Class of '34.

The annual book exchange is still in vogue and professors still play the game of "Change the book this year for my course."

We could nominate several of the lecturing faculty for the place of Floyd Gibbous—Ms listeners use shorthand, at least.

Because we were taken in on this one we're passing it on:

"Have you heard the Irish chiropdict song? If you say 'no,' the answer is 'My fate is in your hands.' Pretty bad!"

After playing minatitre golf this summer we're in favor of a com- mission to keep correct score. When someone asks you "how do you lie", it means more titan you think.

The game two weeks ago gave every indication that we have a real college and real team,—all excepting the cheering, of course. We believe Coach Galloway has taken care of that, though.—And how!

Say, you know a would-be-columnist has a tough time lately, there's so lit- tle to be dissatisfied with. Howell Hall is actually built, the campus looks great, the new profs are'nt bad (de- grees and everything), and even the Freshman Class is behaving—so far.

In the outside world look what they've gone and done —run Heywood Brown for Congress. We insist columnists are having a bad lime of it.

Bill Brown is back, enough said!

Our loyalty medal nominee for '34, is the girl who (refused to buy a book With the translation interlinear because

"she wants to do her own work". Oh boy! what college can do for her.

We noticed the following in last week's Fiat, "Those desiring a change in American history since 1860, please see so and so." Our first big order is a change in politics, some jobs and more charters for universities. And if you please, have the World War fought over again, so we'll know who won.

Did you ever stop to wonder what will be in the chapter on Hoover's J administration in the history books of 1984? Sh! Sh! Sh!

"Only Seniors may carry canes".

Had they said "must carry", the class would hare been up before the Student Senate for last Thursday's lack of

"support". Is another tradition pass- ings' Let's see next Thursday.

We fear this is the last gasp for this week. Meanwhile we'll be wach- ing and waiting for something with which to fill this column.

When Robert Locke Griffin '32, was instantly killed last Thurs- day evening, the Junior Class lost one of its most valuable members.

Griffin, a graduate of Arkport High School in 1928, entered Al- fred University in the fall of the same year. He readily became known among his friends as one who would be marked for his high scholastic standing. To further and broaden his ambitions, he became a candidate for Freshman football and track. By dint of faithful training, he won his class numerals in the latter sport—the same insignia which he proudly wore on the day of his death.

Robert L. Griffin was a member of the Varsity track squad and a student candidate for the college Bachelor of Science Degree. Hav- ing been Faithful to his ideals, True to his ambitions and Loyal to his school, Griffin's loss is sorely felt by his many friends in school and bv his relatives as well.

Fraternities

There are now five fraternities and one fraternal club on Al- fred's Campus, namely, Klan Alpine, Delta Sigma Phi, Theta Kappa Nu, Kappa Psi Upsilon, Beta Phi Omega and Kappa Eta Phi. With- out attempting to delve into the broader concepts of fraternalism, its exaggerated advantages and seldom-mentioned drawbacks, we can only attempt to enumerate the influences which these units can and have spread over the school.

Alfred had grown into a fraternal rut during the past few years with only four groups holding sway over a rapidly growing collegiate domain. The college administration found that only 48%

of the student body belonged to said fraternities and that an aver- age of about 72% of the student groups in other universities had become associated with similar organizations. Believing that it had finally placed its finger on the local social problem, and rightly so, the administration began to look more favorably upon the growth of fraternities in its own social world. As a result, one more social fraternity, Beta Phi Omega, and a fraternal club, Kappa Eta Phi, were admitted to the Campus during the 1929-30 session.

It is a fact no longer questioned that the fraternities' greatest good comes through the social training which they can give to their respective members. It offers a value which cannot be gained by either money or through the excessive study of books. It is also one of the two great benefits which are tendered to the college stu- dent. Ths trait only becomes noticeable when one visits a neigh- boring college campus. The social difference between an Alfred collegian and a neighboring student then becomes outstanding in dregs, ease of manner and breadth of mind. We hope that A. U., fraternities will take advantage of their own position and build up themselves for the benefit of each other and the college as a whole.

Freshmen—Take Notice

The Student Campus Court has one main purpose in its ex- istence which, in short, is none other than to uphold Alfred tradi- tions and campus rules. But this ambition only applies to male underclassmen who are either so lighthearted or lightheaded as to offend these traditional institutions. Being a judicial organ of student government, the Campus Court does not purport to be a hazing unit, but an unprejudiced group which both hears and de- cides disputes arising out of the enforcement of student government laws.

Last week after seventeen complaints had been received due to Freshmen failing to report for campus duty, the Clerk of Court issued invitations to the score of offenders to report in turn for a session of Campus Court. The Frosh answered the request in a bod^v. Yes, they did not! What greater misdemeanor could these yearlings have infringed upon the ordinary governmental routine?

Five Freshmen reported to the Judge last week.

The tribunal, in a stately fashion, rose up on its hind legs and decided to issue another set of invitations. Said court then issued fair warning that if the miscreants should fail to appear to the ses- sion, steps would be taken to go out and get them! The Campus Court is backed in their work, and particularly in this venture, by practically every student organization from the Biological So- ciety to the Student Senate. We dread to see the return of the 0. M. A., but "spare the rod and spoil the child," you know.

HISTORY REPEATS Two years past I saw this—

And observed it was the thing To date the lovely Co-eds

In Alfred, in the Spring.

I mimicked worthy elders, And dated night on night,

My index went to the Bow-wows—

The dates wound up in a fight.

A year ago I saw this—

Once more I went astray, I never stopped to argue,

Just tossed the hours away.

I laughed and dated onward, Unharmed by reason's call, 'Til matters righted by themselves

In Alfred's golden fall.

And now, to-day, it's thawing There's a warm spring r a i n - As sure as death or taxes

I shall fall in love again.

PURPLE LOSES TO ST. LAWRENCE IN

CONFERENCE GAME

St. Lawrence Scores At Will In First Half For

21-0 Victory

Sweeping Alfred off its feet in the first few minutes of play St. Lawrence scored a 21-0 victory over the locals at Canton. Saturday. Tile Purple stif- fened after the first period and held the Larries to one more touchdown outplaying their opponents in the second half.

Four minutes after the opening kick-off, Percy, St. Lawrence speed merchant galloped around his right end behind perfect interference on a triple reverse and raced 45 yards for a touchdown. Three minutes later Stickles broke through the line to block a punt off Phillips' toe and fell on the ball for a touchdown. Near the end of the second quarter the Lar- ries started out on a 30 yard march which resulted in another touchdown when Percy skirted right end for three yards and a score. Percy accounted for three extra points from place- ment.

The Larries scored a touchdown early in the first period when Pen- cheff passed laterally to Percy, who went 70 yards to the goal line but the officials claimed that Schoen, who was leading interference for Percy clip- ped one of the Alfred backs, and dis- allowed the touchdown.

Delaney playing his first full game of Varsity foov'oall ran the team weli from the quarterback position while Phillips was the outstanding man in the Purple backfield. Lockwood and Perrone were Alfred's best bets on the line and caused the Larries trouble throughout the game.

Contrary to tradition an Alfred team came out on the field in the second half and outfought and outplayed their opponents. Apparently beaten in the first half the Purple carried the ball to their opponents 10 yard line on several occasions but failed to score when passes went wild.

lings have two advantages in weight and fight, but Moore's charges are sicrappy too!

The University of Buffalo, though as he is most intimately known, set a|r e a d y c,a d i n w h i t e > h a s b e e n t a k. out for Gotham i n the hopes that he i n g a w h itewashing from both Car- might profit by some specialist's ex- j n e g j e T e c h a n d F o r d h a m d u r i n g the past two weeks, much to the delight of the Alfred's fans. But these scores do not prove a solitary thing as far amination.

"Robby", a star end on Heers' 1929 football eleven, reported to Galloway for practice on the first day of school.

On the following day he was taken to

( the infirmary where he stayed until his release last week.

Before leaving town, "Robby" con- I fided that he would try to return to school within a short time. In answer to queries concerning athletics he stated that "football and basketball are out of the question as far as I'm j concerned, but I hope to be in con-

dition for track".

Varsity Eleven To Meet Buffalo In Night

Contest

Next Saturday, October 11, will see

l e ^ arsity entertain Buffalo in a i night game at Merrill Field. This

| makes the fourth Conference game for Alfred while it marks the initial one

• for Buffalo. The Saxon aggregation has somewhat of an edge over the

gaff" from tackle to tackle.

Cross country opens this Friday in j the first, and probably the last, home meet of the season with Geneva. Al- though Alfred has never met the Key- stone-staters in the hill-and-dale sport before, the Dope Fiend picks the Pur- ple to win by something short of a perfect score. Geneva had a power- ful track team last spring, but her dis- tance men did not appear rugged enough to match the Saxons' strides on the surrounding hills.

Niagara may prove to be stronger than St. Lawrence from all press re- ports. Although the Purple Cataract has lost to Penn State and Cornell, she has scored 14 points per game—

and that is far from encouraging.

Believe it or not, but Saxon harriers have never lost a bonafide dual meet on their home course. While Alfred may not have a particularly strong team this fall, it should be fast enough to ward off all outside threats for this season at least.

St. Lawrence's line did not appear to be any too strong with the excep- tion of her tackles. It was her back-

McLeold's cross country squad which has been priming itself all during September, for the coming season will be able to show its wares against Geneva on the home course this Friday afternoon.

Due to the graduation of Zschiegner, Thomas and Burdick last June, the harriers under-fire strength can not be fully estimated. Captain Galizio's men have been carefully clocked in time trials, but little is known of their team work against competition Vance, Galizio, Hughes, Warde and Graham are the nucleus of McLeod's team, while Cibella, Roe and Razey have aided in balancing the squad from the 1929, Frosh aggregation.

Geneva faces the starter beside the Saxons for the first time so that the comparative strength of the two teams is not known. However, Geneva is reputed to be weak on the hills, but from the appearance of her track team last spring, it is a certainty that the I Gold takes a deep interest in running

events.

Frosh Gridders To Oppose Salamanca This Week

In First Contest

The Freshman grid squad will travel to Salamanca this Saturday for the opening game of the Frosh 1930 season McLane's charges will be working hard all week in preparation for the game, and both McLane and Fenner expect to rub out most of the rough edges in the team's play before this week-end.

It is hoped that the trip will be made by ous with the team leaving Alfred about 8 o'clock Saturday morning. Plans are being made to rush the yearlings back to town in time to view the Varsity game with Buffalo on that same clay.

Thus far this season "Tom" Moore's Salair.anea team lias lost to Dunkirk's heavy outfit, 18-6, and has defeated the fast Wellsville eleven, 7-0.

Moore, who is an Alfred alumnus from the Class of 1926, has had a hard fight with inelegibility, and lack of material, but his team has earned an enviable reputation as a fast and heady outfit nevertheless.

but Lee has been working his men hard and expects them to make a better showing than in the last, two starts.

Cotton and Kayser, veteran backfield men, are Buffalo's biggest threats.

However, the Bison City team will not lack experienced substitutes. The Buf- falo squad will probably comprise of I about thirty men, at least ten of which

Servatius, Varsity back, who has been out for Die past due to injuries, will probably be back in the line-up for this game.

Alfred University had to import a Hand to get a little music to accom- pany them while they marched to the field to see a winning footunll team in action. When there are so many on the campus who can play some kind of n.n instrument there seems t i be no real reason why they cannot turn out one night a week and give t"ie college a bend. The ball men put in hours aach day, the Cross Country team have a daily schedule and they go through with it.

If you are afraid of being laughed at, consider the feelings of a football team that have to think that even the school that they represent has to get a band from some place to play for them. How about a little support and a 1009£, college at Alfred, New York?

We're headed that way, let's go.
