(Continued Irom Page 1) ial arrangements showed skill in Tarying and using to the fullest instruments and voices he had at his command.

But most important, in creat- ing "Down, Down, Down," Le- Mon achieved exactly what he had intended. The opera tells the story of tragedies faced by Amer- ica's coal miners and their fam- ilies. Yet "Down, Down, Down"

is strong with the courage and stamina that these people calmly brought to our country's growth.

Musically, the opera was written specifically to utilize and challenge choral and instrumen- tal resources of a typical Amer- ican university music department.

At no point does the score or libretto of "Doiwn, ©own, Down"

lead amateurs beyond their depth.

Yet melodies and effects offer enough challenge' to encourage the best performances.

M e l o d i o u s throughout, the score of' "Down, Down, Down"

offers several tunes that stick in the listener's memory. "Tur- key and Pumpkin Pie," Ma Evan's song of reassurance, "Loyal Mining Men," "Morgan, Bailey and Jones," the miners' song as they go unsuspectingly down the mine shaft . . . these are but a few of the delightflul melodies.

•But perhaps the musical high- lights of the production are the theme melody of "Down, Down, (Down" that open Act I, the trio melody at the close of Act 1, and the lovely soaring "We're To Be Married" sung by the young lovers.

Produced by the drama department and Pootlight Club, actual rehearsals for "Down, Down, Down" took just six weeks, making the resulting delightful performances all the more note- worthy. The three-act opera offers 12 feature roles, four of them leads.

Paul Giles, assistant professor of music, didn't merely play the part of Dan MoCole, veteran mine foreman. H e lived the part.

Giles ibrought to the role acting ability as well as the big voice and robust clarity needed to bring out MoCoJe's solo numbers and characters.

Mrs. Betty Giles, also of the music department, played Rose O'Leary, Bill Keatin's fiance, with emotions ranging from win- some charm to outraged indigna- tion. Mrs. Giles' lovely soprano voice, soaring and clear, offered memorable moments of the evening, especially in the trio a t the conclusion of Act I and in "We're To Be Married."

Herfbert Berry of Canaseraga delighted Alfred audiences for the second time recently (he sang t h e tenor role of the .December production of "¡The Messiah"). In

"Down, Down, Down," Berry transformed Dave Fluge, a highly respected senior mining foreman, irom what could have easily been ia minor role into one of value and importance.

Bill Keatin is a courageous young miner. Dr. Clifford Myers of the chemistry department sang the role with polish and charm, adding stubborness and pride to the depth of the characterization.

In supporting roles, Gloria Weinberg a s Bridget MoCole showed sparkle and vivacious- mess. Donald Higgins and Billy Schwartz eaisly captivated the audience in their roles as two mule drivers. Their delivery of lines and songs was startingly close to professional naturalness

— since 'Donald appeared to be about 12 and Bill must have been all of 8 or 9.

As Mad Kate, Nancy Skidmore delivered her dire predictions of death and injuries in the mine

/.eMon's Dream Realized;

Audience Reaction Mixed

by Ron Berger

A long-cherished dream was realized last Thursday, Fri- day, and Saturday nights as two Alfred University depart- ments and the Footight Club joined to produce "Down, Down, Down.'' For Dr. Melvin Le Mon, composer-conductor of the

American folk opera, the three opera, performances before more than I,500 viewers culminated twenty years of research, composing and scoring.

Dr. Le Mon, who was named chairman of the Alfred University music department in I960, based his three-act opera on the folk songs of the Pennsylvania coal miners, on which he did research for five years prior to World War II. He wrote most of the music and the libretto for the opera in 1956, and he completed the or- chestration while at Alfred.

"Down, Down, Down" was presented under the Alfred University Cultural Council, and more than 150 students were involved in the production, along with a few professional musicians and faculty members.

The 'audience reaction to '".Down, Down, Down" varied.

Some found it a delightflul performance; others thought it chilly, trite, and "corny." Many enjoyed the music, while others complained of its similarity to Gilbert and Sullivan and Rodgers and Ham- mers tein. There was praise for the "professional" performances of Paul and Betty G41es; there were also wry remarks about their

"overcharacterizaitions" resembl- ing Jeanette McDonald and Nel- son Eddy. Many complained about the weak voices of two of the principals and about the "too lengthy" overture; there were also comments about the orchestra's drowning out the voices on stage and about the difficulty in under-

standing many of the words.

Whatever the reaction to it, however, "Down, Down, Down"

represents a personal triumph for its composer; the three audiences, recognizing this fact, were most generous with their applause, and

the congratulations extended to Dr .Le Mon were richly deserved.

Those who were disappointed because they did not see a professional performance recognized that many of the shortcomings they saw in "Down, Down, Down"

were due to this, and most of them freely admitted that, for an amateur, college production, it was good, and a rather impres- sive accomplishment.

Dr. Le Mon himself was quite pleased with the three performances. He took special note of the

"amazing" cooperation t h a t was extended to him by Alfred students, and he stated that this h a s made his "stay at Alfred worthwhile; I'm very happy to be a t Alfred," he added.

Now, what of the fluture? Dr.

Le Mon has had promising indi- cations from a New York City opera company, which previously returned the score of "Down, iDown, Down" because the or-

chestration was not complete.

Three recordings were made of the performances, and Dr. L a Mon hopes that a record witb many selections from his folk opera will soon be available.

Grants Awarded

Dr. David Rossington, assistant professor of physical chemistry, and Dr. John Stull, assistant professor of phisics, were among the 18 faculty members of the College Center of the Finger Lakes to be awarded research grants totaling

$9,7-60.

In his announcement last week, Dr. Willis Lawrence chairman of the Research Council and Director of Research at Alfred, stated t h a t the grants are to be expended during the summer of 1963 and during the 1963-64 academic year.

Space Probe Information From Mariner II Decoded

There can be no life as we know it on Venus. The sur- face temperature of that planet is almost 200 degrees higher than the melting point of lead.

formation Teceived from the Mar- iner II space probe. This information has only recently been decoded.

Mariner II was launched from Cape Canaveral on Aug. 27, 1962, in the most successful flight in the history of space exploration.

The rocket travelled on a 109-day elliptical orbit and arrived in the vicinity of Venus on Dec. 14,

¡1962.

Just before it reached its closest point to Venue approximately 21,- OOO miles, Mariners instruments

»Carted to take readings of the physical make-up of the planet.

This data was then flashed back to receiving stations here on earth in a matter of seconds.

Mariner' s instruments scanned Venus three times, crossing firdt the dark side, then the boundary between light and dark, iand finally the sunlit side. The micro-wave radiometer reported a surface temperature of about 800 degrees Fahrenheit; the melting point of lad is only 621 degrees. Further- more, the temperature does not eeem to vary from the sunlit side to the dark side of the planet.

Other instruments aboard Mar- iner supported the report that

^ Venus is hotter than we thought.

These instruments discovered that the top part of Venus' atmosphere is not highly ionized; hence it does not glow as much as we thought. ¡Physicists working on the project have decided that the glow must be coming from Venus

itself. Ergo, Venus is much hotter than expected.

The famous Venusian clouds still remain a mystery to us. Some astronomers belive they are fine

dust particles kicked up from the dry surface (at Venus' temperature there can be no liquid water) by tremendous winds in the dense atmosphere.

Professor Louis D. Kaplan of Caltech's Jet Propulsion Labora- tory has come up with a more picturesque theory. He thinks that the Venusian atmosphere is made up of hydrocarbon droplets similar to water droplets in earthly clouds. The droplets condensed in the upper part of the atmosphere,

>but stay in vapor form in the lower parts. Thus the Venusian surface has a clear, oily air.

Mr. Kaplan also thinks that the atmosphere pressure at ground level on Venus may be ten to 20 times that of Earth. It's dry, un- ibreathable air contains perhaps ten per cent carbon dioxide, over 300 times that of earth, and probably little nitrogen.

All this adds up to the statement that there can be no life on Venus as we know it, although there may be other forms based on a different body chemistry. It also means that it would be Im- possible for humans to live on Venus without methods of protection.

"¡Revelation is the communica- tion to man of divine will," stated Dr. Aristotle Scoledes during the fourth discussion on "Relig- ion in Life," the series organized by Dr. Myron Sibley and Rev.

Richard Bergren, last Tuesday in the Campus Center.

Dr. Scoledes' lecture, entitled

"Reason and Revelation," con- centrated on the definition of revelation given above and a discussion of a common ground for reason and revelation in religion.

The second point was a dialogue on the acceptance of a metaphysical being.

vestigation," or in ordinary pur- suits, said 'Dr. Scoledes. He also said that religion is supernatural only for those whose faith de- mands it.

The dialogue concerned the language and the senses in des- cribing and recognizing a metaphysical entity, which may be called Cod. Dr. Scoledes took both parts, naming one opponent Mr.

X .and the other Mr. Y.

The basis of Mr. Z's remarks was that Cod is a metaphysical entity, and as such cannot be com- prehended by the senses; that he is more intelligent than man, in man's manner of measuring in- telligence; and that he can be partially described in man's lan- gmage. Mr. Y felt that anything that could not (be sensed or described fully in human language could not exist, and therefore can not be believed.

After the dialogue, Dr. Scoledes added a few more remarks which 'brought out the idea it is very hard to communicate one's religious beliefs as everything is tainted by individual experience.

Thus, if the one spoken to had not shared the same, or similar, experiences, he coiuld not under- stand the speaker's feelings.

Dr. Robert iLana, Dr. David Leach and Dr. Sibley then discussed the idea of religious eth- ics as attributed to God.

State Senator ¡Barber Conable (Rep., 5th District) and State Assemblyman Charles Henderson

(Rep., Steuben County) participat- ed in a panel discussion on tuition for state sohools, last Sat- urday in the Campus Center.

Despite their party connection

•Conable and Henderson represent conflicting views on the estab- lishment of tuition in the Univer- sity of the State of New York.

Conable, who is in his first term, did not have an opportun- ity to vote for the ibill that gave the State "University Board of Trustees the authority to establish tuition but he said that he would have supported this action.

In addition he is entirely in sap- port of the tuition that was s e t last January. Henderson, in strongly opposed to tuition and

sponsored a bill to reestablish the Legislature's authority to control tuition in the state schools. Henderson's bill was defeated two weeks ago.

The men entered into a debate and each tried to express the views of the position he represented. Conable indicated that the State would increase monies spent in regents scholarships and scholar incentive awards and for this reason the $400 tuition would not deny anybody a college education because of financial reasons. Hen- derson countered this argument with the suggestion of tax exemp- tions for the costs of higher education. He felt this program would provide the needed financial protection for the lower in- come bracket and at the same time it would not .necessitate tul- ion in stae schools, which Hen- derson is also opposed to "in principle."

•Conable maintained that the newly passed tuition is necessary to raise collateral for a billion dollar loan the state plans to take out to finance an expansion program of the State University to meet the anticipated' increase in enrollment over the next seven years. Henderson poined out that the tuition rise was being negated by the increased scholar incentive awards and regents scholarships and that the state was merely

"taking money from one pocket and putting it in the other."

Saturday's program was the first held under the auspices of

•the newly formed International- National Affairs Committee. The recently elected chairman of that committee, Pat Riley moderated the discussion.

Participating on the panel with.

Conable and Henderson were Richard Place, Pat Riley, Fred Silverstein, Bill Vanech and Jean Wincowski. These five students had attended a rally in protest of the e s t a b l i s h m e n t of tuition a t Albany, March 11. At that time they spoke with ConaJble and Hen- derson.

The New Senate

The Student Senate elections concluded Friday were only the first step in developing the Senate into an organization which has the attention and cooperation of the student body.

Now the new officers must provide the initiative and action necessary to create an awareness among students of the Sen- ate's full value—such an awareness must exist if the Senate is to receive the cooperation it needs to be successful.

One new Senate organization, the International-National Affairs Committee, has already shown its value by bringing two members of the state legislature to the campus last Sat- urday to discuss the question of tuition in state schools. It was in events of this type that the Senate was most obviously lack- ing during the past year. Supported by more funds than the variety of campus clubs which have traditionally worked in this field, and with a greater membership from which to draw workers, this committee will be able to plan and sustain a coor- dinated, year-long series of discussions, lectures, and films.

"We urge all interested students to attend the committee's or- ganizational meeting this "Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the Campus Center or contact Pat Riley at 587-8014.

While the International-National Committee greatly in- creases the Senate's scope, equally important projects by the entire Senate remain—additional publicity by the Senate it- self, concrete work on revising the constitution, a final de- cision on the! honor system, and an intensive study of the current method of representation.

We are confident that the officers elected Friday will do as much as possible to continue the past year's successful pro- grams and to correct any inequities which currently exist.

Down, Down, Down

The Alfred University community was privileged last week to feee the premiere of "Down, Down, Down." It is rare when any school, especially one as small as Alfred, is afforded the chance to view an opera composed by one of its own fac- ulty members.

The performances of the folk opera represent a triumph not only for Alfred University, but more so for Dr. Melvin Le Mon, whose years of effort were culminated last Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.

It was a proud moment for Alfred when the curtain went up—it was a prouder one for Dr. Le Mon. To the cast and sup- porting Footlight Club members, and especially to Dr. Le Mon,

our heartiest congratulations. H.F.

More to the point, the twenty people who w$re there nominated twenty people for class of- fic. Not having been there myself, I don't know if the coinci- dence in numbers is just that or not. In fact, it may come as a surprise to some when they read in the FIAT that they have been nominated for class office. If this apathetic attitude to- ward class offices and class elections is the rule then why both with such things. "Why not let the twenty people who have enough interest in their class, run it and not bother with the needless, pointless, and utterly useless class elections.

Campus Pulse

by Carol Jaeger New Student Senate offic- ers (were (elected last week.

What would you most like to see them accomplish in the coming year?

Kati Gordon, Fr., LA, Jackson Heights The new Sen- ate officers we h a v e elected are, I believe, competent a n d have introduced some important ideas which should be carried through, such as a career advisors committee and the inter- collegiate exchange programs.

However, I believe that our new officer« should profit by the some of the suggestions of some of the other candidates who ran.

I should like to especially see a Summer Leadership Training Program instituted at Alfred so that we could, in the future, establish a continuity of strong, able leaders o deal with whatever accomplishments we do want realized at Alfred.

Bob Volk, Soph., Engr., Buffalo as well as continuing the campaign for a student lodge, I f e e l that it w o u l d be a worthwhile endeavor for the new Senate officers to also start a drive with the goal of getting to build the new auditorium that it so sorely needs. The need for such an auditorium bias been shown time and time again as each 'Footlight iCliub and Music Department production is performed. It is a disgrace to Al- fred to put on such productions in the locations now available.

The new Senate officers are in a good position to help the Uni- versity along these lines.

Kihm Richardson, Soph., LA., Buffalo 1 would like to see the new Student Senate f u r t h e r the plans for a lodge on Jericho Hill.

In dealings with the ¡administration, I would like to see cooperation and maturity.

I think that his year's Senate has introduced an "attitude" that should be continued. Activities which unite Alfred students as a body are the things which will generate spirit on campus. I would like to see less competition between fraternities and sororities and more feelings among Alfred students as a unified body.

' Shelley Lorber, Soph., De«., Flushing , jj. ~ ~ ~ 'jrr T h e candi-

dates' speeches on Thurs d a y were very promising, but they were last year, too; and once again, the Alfred student body is left in a state of apathy. This apathy could (be relieved if Sen- ate affairs were more publicized, if student government problems were made more apparent to the majority of the campus.

From the Chair

by Tom Syracuse

This week begins our remarks in the Senate column. We hope to keep up the tradition started by Fred Silverstein to a certain extent; we will write this column whenever we have sufficient information to relate.

First, we would like to express our thanks to those of you who did take the time to vote last Friday, and we would par- ticularly like to thank those of you who gave us your sup- port.

In regard to the Senate, we sincerely plan to continue to work on some of the fine projects Fred has started this year, i.e., ski trips, pond and lodge, bus trips, etc. We feel we have gained valuable insight into these and other matters while working under Fred and we now hope that this can come into play during this year's Senate. We also hope to institute some of our own ideas into the Senate; to re-list these, however, would merely sound like another campaign speech.

One theme has remained with us which was evident during the past administration and we hope to dwell on it, for it is the key to effective Senate leadership. This is cooperation, cooperation on all levels—administration, faculty, and stu- dents. We shall try to maintain the cooperation of our pre- decessor on all levels and advance it as much as possible.

Finally, we ask for your support during this coming year.

The Senate and the Senate president exist to serve the student body. It is through your support that we can determine how to best serve you.

Report on Foreign Students Asks U.S. Schools toChonge Programs

L/eading educators last month endorsed a call for United States colleges and universities to re- examine the philosophy, objectives and operation of their foreign student programs.

The Committee on the Foreign Student in American Colleges Knd Universities issued a 26-page report telling the schools that they must, among other things, spend more money, cooperate more closely with governments and agencies which sponsor such students, and place international education "into its proper per- spective" as a basic and essen- tial part of their educational mission.

T h e recommendations grew out of several recent studies of the foreign student situation, such as t h e Hlgbee report, which defined the inadequacies of the foreign student program in the nearly 2,000 institutions which now en- roll foreign students.

T h e urgency of the need to improve foreign student programs Is underlined by the recent in-

crease in the number of such sba- dents, the Committee stresses. "In 1961-62," the report states, "there Were more than 60,000 foreign students on United States cam- puses. In one decade, the number has increased by 75 percent, and on the basis of the present trend, the number will exceed 100,000 in another ten years."

The report, entitled, "The Col- lege, the University, and the ¡For- eign Student," says schools must recognize the significance of foreign students as basic and essen- tial parts of their educational mission, and points ont what the committee calls a "new dimen- sion of educational exchange,"

that of farthering the development of emerging countries.

Education and Policy

—colleges and universities contri- bute also to a primary goal of United States foreign policy—the preservation and support of free nations around the world," the

QUADS by Karen Bale

It was announced in the Reporter, the college newspaper at the State University College at Buffalo, that less than two weeks ago the student congress discussed their future member- ship in NSA. Although the congress finally decided to continue their representation for the time being, it was suggested that the motion for withdrawal be brought up again after Easter recess.

One recommendation that the college withdraw from the association was made by a former NSA representative. She said that although NSA could be profitable if there were enough publicity and student interest, the university "wouldn't miss it" and a representative of the senior class stated that

"in four years the college has received no tangeable benefits"

from NSA. The president of the student congress stated that

"the NSA issue has been discussed every year for the last four years; each time it is given another chance," and "although NSA is a good organization it does not deal with the college community events that the student congress at the university is interested in." These views seem to uphold the "Reporter's"

Statement that "NSA has been having difficulty on other composes and many large colleges have cancelled their mem- berships."

At the present time NSA is receiving approximately 100 dollars per year from the student activity tax at the univer- sity, but many of the activities which are similar to those put on by NSA are being directed by other organizations on cam-

Elaine Bremer brought to the role of Ma Evans quiet dignity required in playing an older wo- man, widowed by a mine diaster years before.

Also notable in their roles were Roger Feldman as the topman who operated the mine shaft el- evator; Mike Abelson as Danny McCole, son of Big Dan; and Wil- liam Vanech as the mine company inspector.

Yet none of these delightful performances would have been possible without the backing of a well-rehearsed chorus and smoothly integrated orchestra.

The chorus, numbering 77 voices, handled the assignment with finess and almost professional ease. .Mose noticably, every member of the on-stage chorus seemed to be an integral p a r t of the action rather than merely on-lookers.

As miusical director for the performance, Dr. LeMon took a bold step in using his chorus. Hamper- ed by a small stage, Dr. LeMon demonstrated that by placing 48

voices in the orchestra pit, vo- cal power and range needed could be achieved without sacrifice to staging.

The 23-piece orchestra worked well together and took in stride unique musical experiments called for in the score. For example, when the first explosion came from the mine shaft, the audience as a body involuntarily leaped, so convincingly did the percus- sion section perform. The wail of alarm sirens from the string section and the haunting clank»

ings of signals from trapped miners below formed an eerie, real-- istic counterpoint to the musical score for the rest of the final' scene.

In orchestrating the work, Dr..

-LeMon saw to it that each section and each instrument of the>

orchestra had its share of t h e solo limelight during the course of the evening. And the musicians rose to the challenge smoothly each time.

Special mention must be made of work done by Prof. C. Duryea Smitb and Prof. Ronald Brown,

both of the department 6f speech and Dramatic Arts, as stage director and technical director.

authors contend.

Specific recommendations of the Committee include these:

The schools miust strive for greater cooperation among themselves and with governments, foundations, international organizations, and other agencies which sponsor foreign students.

Admission policies must be re- vised to put emphasis on ad- mitting those students whose basic objectives can be best served. lOne consideration for admission, the Committee con- tends, should be the candidate's potential contributions to their countries' development.

"Prior competence in t h e Eng- lish language should not be a decisive criterion for admission, but sufficient training in English should be made avail-

able to those who need it," the report asserts. T h e authors suggest that a regional cooper- ative basis for English training may be the answer in many cases.

Orientation programs for foreign students must not only only help the student master the details of living on the American campus, but must also look to the long-range ob- jective of exposing the student to American life to give him an understanding of social and political institutions and of the

"plurality and diversity" within this country.

Closer co-operation between academic advising and personal

counseling must be established the report says.

Want Faculty Advisors The committee calls for more budget and staff for the two counseling functions, and flatly states that the majority of foreign student advisors, however well-train- ed, are prevented from doing a better job by lack of staff. T h e report also pleads for academic advising handled by faculty members who will give "more than routine attention" to the task.

Present programs of services are Inadequate because of budget, the report notes. T o supplement their resources, universities and colleges should seek funds from their communities and from various foundations and private agencies," the authors say.

They also predict that increased governmental assistance in this a r e a will "probably" be re-

Quired.

I. With graduation coming up, looks like we'll have to start thinking about the future.

My philosophy is to live from day to day.

2. That's fine when you have no responsibilities. But chances are you'll have a wife to think about soon.

I may just decide to lead the bachelor life.

3. Hardly likely, since 98 per cent of all men and women get married.

Is that so?

4. Yes, indeed. What's more, youU' have children to consider.

Maybe we won't have any.

5.1 doubt that—after all, 90 per cent of the women who get married today have children. And, on the average, they have all their children before they're 27.

All my life I've shirked responsibility. Have a ball, enjoy yourself—that's my motto. Now, in two minutes, you've given me a wife and who knows how many children to take care of. What

should I do? Where do I begin?

6. First relax. Then look into some good insurance... like Living Insurance from Equitable. It gives the kind of protection eveiy family should have. Helps you save for the future, too.

And don't worry—your chances for a happy family life are very good.

and a vitality of form •which con- stitutes a strong statement in exepression. However, with the exception of a few pieces, the two dimensional work of various media does not reach as high a level. Some of it lacks clarity, 'unity and vitality of form which

the three dimensional work has.

Several pieces of the two dimensional work are of <an outstanding quality.

While the exhibit is admirable in the overall quality of the work, in presentation it does not func- tion as a unified statement. The arrangement of the two dimensional work is spatially static.

The individuality of the three dimensional work is not given proper emphasis. "While pottery is arranged in a stromatic fash- ion, sculpture has been relegated to corners where its full impact is lost.

For the most part the quality of the work overcomes these dif- ficulties and speaks strongly for the achievements of the Senior Design Class.

SAXON SPOTLIGHT Ernst and Harkness Spur Teams to Titles

by Joe

What is effort on a basketball court? Is it scoring twenty points a game or quarter backing a winning team. No, it is trying your best, win or lose. It is Henry (Landman.

Henry Landman may not be the best (basketball player ever to come to Alfred, but he could be the nicest. Henry Landman may not go on to the pro's but he is a professional in many ways. He may have never made headlines, but he added interest to some pretty dull games.

The excitement that Henry Landman created on the court was not the same kind exhibited by a Steinberg, but rather that of Jimmy Piersall. To call Digger a

"zany" wouldn't (be an error, but he might be best described as

"flakey," unpredictable, uncon- sciously humorous. Nevertheless, all he had went into every performance .He never stopped trying. He bore down too hard at home, but on away trips he was murder. On the road he knew no one would mock him when he went into the game. 'He never conquered the overly-skeptical Al- fred crowd.

A person like Henry Landman comes along once in a lifetime.

Seemingly naive, he was one of the few ball players who retained their composure in the hectic atmosphere of Alfred basketball.

This past year he filled his role as co-captain with inspiration

Rosenberg

rarely seen in a small college athlete.

The long bus rides home after a big loss, the endless games on the bench, the seM-douibt as to his own abilities, he took with a grin and a shrug of his shoulders.

If being a great guy and trying hard is all that is needed to be an Ail-American, Henry Landman would top all lists.

Henry "Digger" Landman Something will be missing from Alfred when Hank Landman graduates. His warm personality and nochalant attitude will never be forgotten to those who knew him.

In his own vernacular, "Mother, the Digs has been airound."

"while the Running Gears had first place honors in basketball last year.

Tony Oappellino, Lambda Chi,

Loyola O'TimeVictor Over Cincy/

Providence Beats Griffs in NIT

N.C.A.A.

The remarkable (Ramblers from Loyola of Chicago halted Cincin- nati's domination of the NCAA championships with a 60-5S overtime victory last Saturday night at Louisville's Freedom Hall. This was the first appearance in the tourney for Rambler coach George Ireland.

Both teams started out slowly, with the Bearcats forcing Loyola to play their deliberate offensive game. With 6-8 George Wilson

and 6-2 Tom Thacker controlling their defensive backboards, the Cats slowly started to pull away.

Loyola was bothered by the Cin- cinnati defense, especially Ail- American Gerry Harkness who was held scoreless at the half by Tony Yates.

Cincinnati, on the other hand, was finding Ron Bonham open for jump shots and Tom Thacker scored well underneath. The score at the half: 09 to 21.

Barry Kramer, 6-4 phenom from Schenectady, New York, was also unanimously picked.

Kramer is the second leading scorer in the nation and leads New York University. Joining these three on the first team are junior Ron Bonham and senior Tom Thacker of Cincin- nati, the second place team in the N.C.A.A. tourney.

Yates all got into serious foul trouble in tne first few minutes of the second naif. With twelve miniates to go, the Cats led by fifteen, but Wilson drew his fourth personal and was taken out by Coach Ed Jucker. Without Wilson's rebounding, Loyola began to put pressure on their offensive boards. Harkness began to break away from Yates and

¡Loyola whittled the lead to 53-50- with 4i5 seconds to go. The Ramb- lers scored another basket to trail 53-52 with 12 seconds left as Cin- cinnati's Larry S'hingleton went to the free throw line with a one- land-lone situation. Shingleton made the first but missed the second, Loyola coming up with the ball. Harkness scored on a jumper to knot the game at 54 all,.

In the overtime, Harknessfi Wil- son, Ron Miller, and Shingleton traded 'baskets to tie the game at 58 all. With only a few seconds remaining, Leslie Hunter missed on a jump shot but Vic Rouse tapped in the rebound with one second left on the clock.

In the third place consolation game, Duke defeated Oregon S t a t e 85 to 63, as Art Heyman ended his college career with 22 points.

N.I.T.

Vinnie Ernst, a M playmaker, sparked the Providence (Friars to their second National 'Invitation- al Tournament Championship l a three years as they slaughtered Canisius, 81 to 66. The diminutive Ernst received the Most Valua- ble Player Trophy two years a g o as a sophomore, . thrilled and amazed a national television audience with his irrepresseible ball handling and defensive play. Often called the best ballplayer for his size in the country, E r n s t proved it as he stole eight times, m a d e 12 assists and scored nine points.

Canisius, conqueror of Villa- nova, who in turn upset top-seed- ed Wichita, wa completely over- powered by the Friar attack. T h e Golden Griffins had their gold tarnished as the Providence de- fenses halted their offensive a t - tack. Chunky Bill O'Connor scored 22 points to lead the »Canisius attack. Jim Stone led all scorers with 23 points a n d Ray Flynn, t h e tournament's M.ViP., chalked u p 20 for the Friars. Flynn scored the tournament's high of 38 against Miami.

Providence had a height advan- tage over the Griffons, as J i m Thompson, 6-10 and Bob KoraU ski, 6-8 towered over Canisius*

big man Bill O'Connor. However it -was the shooting percentage that created the (Friars' super- lority. Hitting for 62% from t h e floor and 90% f r o m .the foul line,, 'the men from Rhode Island showed why they won their last IS games against a 24-4 season record.

In the consolation tilt (Marquette downed Villanova >8fM>6. Mar- quette, who had lost previously in the tourney to Providence i n the semi-finals, outfought and out- shot the Wildcats. Ron Glaser, t h e Warriors sharpshooter scored 2$
