VOL IV ALFRED, N. Y., TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1916 NO. 6
DR. NORWOOD TO DELIVER THIRD SERIES OF LEC-
TURES IN HORNELL Before Federation of Women's
Clubs in the Presbyterian Church
St. Bonaventure Collection of Players and Betrayal of Signals Too Much For Light Alfred Team
Prof. J. N. Norwood of the Polit- ical Science Department, is again to deliver a series of lectures to the "Women's Clubs in Hornell.
In 1914 he was first asked to speak to the women of Hornell on topios of current interest and with the co-operation of Prof. P. E.
Titsworth, a series of sixteen lec- tures was delivered during the winter of 1914-15. Again the next fall he was asked to con- tinue his work, which had been so pleasant and beneficial to all.
These talks were given in the audi- torium at the City Library.
During the i^ext few months, Dr. Norwood will give his third series of ten lectures. Four of these will be delivered in Novem- ber and the rest, following Janu- ary first. This season, however, lie is working under the Hornell Women's Council, which repre- sents the Federation of the Wo- men's "Clubs of the city. Owing to the damage done in the spring floods, the Library auditorium i not usable and Dr. Norwood will speak in the Presbyterian Church.
His first lecture will occur next Thursday and will be on "The Issues of the Campaign." Topics of subsequent lectures will be
"The Civil Service Reform,' '' Can We Look Forward to Worlc Peace," "Irish Home Rule,'
"How England is Governed,'
"How Canada is Governed," etc Alfred students in general, con- gratulate the Hornell women on being able to secure Dr. Norwood to speak on these difficult anc ittle understood questions, for they will one and all vouch for the fact that he can make, even the most difficult subject clear and meaningful.
VARSITY DEFEATED FOR FIRST TIME
Normal Team Thinks It Alfred's Turn To Visit Then The Varsity suffered its first
defeat of the season at the hands of the delegation of players which St. Bonaventure brought to Wells- ville, last Friday. Alfred was landicapped by a 15-pound ad- vantage in every man and by the fact that Bonaventure knew her every signal. The score of 19 to 7 accrued under these circum- stances is an index to the fight he purple and gold put xip. The gameness of the team was certain- ly much to be praised.
The day was ideal for the con- test and a large crowd lined the ropes and filled the stand. Both chools brought large delegations of rooters, about 250 Alfred stu- dents going by a special train chartered for the purpose. The cheering of the purple and gold left the Bona noise makers pretty much in the shade.
The game was delayed until 3:45 by Bonaventure refusing to come onto the field until one of the officials, a Central Board man and one agreed upon by both schools, was removed from the field. The man in question is the coach for the Syracuse Freshmen
and well known in this vicinity for his fairness. The reason for the trouble was not given and the affair tended to give a bad flavor to the whole contest.
St. Bonaventure scored first in the first quarter, when O'Brien plowed through the line, shook himself free and ran 40 yards for a touchdown. The Varsity seem- ed to get over her fright at the size of the men opposite her and held Bona scoreless in the second session. During the third quarter Bonaventure found a horseshoe and scored twice—once when Mat- ineau crossed with a blocked kick for a touchdown, to which Slavin kicked the goal. Within a few minutes after the kick-off, Clarke caught an Alfred pass and in the next play Carmaunt took the oval 20 yards for Bona's last score.
Alfred's touchdown came in the last quarter, when Alfred took MaeClelland's 40 yard gain in- stead of an off side penalty and Galloway passed to Lobaugh who covered the 20 yards to the goal line.
The game was characterized by

I. P. A. MOVEMENT UNDER CONSIDERATION
Dr. Leigh Calvin, Candidate for U. S. Senate to Speak in
December
Of the 10,000 men, who are the leaders in the country, 98 per cent are college graduates. It is (very obvious that the sentiment of college, on any question, will vitally influence the coming lead- ers, whose ideals are put together in their college years.
It is the purpose of the Inter- collegiate Prohibition Association to keep the ideal of prohibition constantly before these potential
leaders and thus gain a foothold on future executive opinion.
Leon Cornell, representative of the Association from Syracuse was in Alfred, last Tuesday, for the purpose of reviving the or- ganization that was in force here a .few years ago. At a meeting in the evening he sounded the senti- ment of the school in this particu-

VARSITY TO PLAY CARLISLE INDIANS
Manager Whitford reports the scheduling of the following games: Silver Lake Military Ac- ademy, Nov. 3; Carlisle Indians Nov. 24.
MANSFIELD GAME CANCELLED
The game with Mansfield State Normal of Pennsylvania schedul- ed for next Friday, has been ancelled. The management of the Normal team has changed ince last spring and the new men in power do not think it advisable to come to Alfred for the second time, without the Varsity visiting them in be- tween.
Their point is well taken and Manager Whitford thinks Alfred can use the time, thus gained, to advantage in patching the men up from the injuries and bruises of the Bona game.

MR. READ PLAYS AT AGRI- CULTURAL SCHOOL MUSIC
HOUR
Mr. Read, instructor in piano in the Music Department, gave the Agricultural School a fine treat, Thursday morning at music hour, by a series of three selections.
The variety of the pieces played added much to the pleasantness of the program.
The names of the numbers with authorative comments are:
Romanze in D f l a t . . . . Sibelius Jean Sibelius (1865, Tavaste- hus, Finland) is head of the Na- tipnjal Conservatory at Helsing- fors, and is the greatest musical genius ever produced in Finland.
His music is permeated with the weird folklore, and strange mysticism of the Finns. His musi- cal ideas, rhythms, turns of melody and color of thought are touched with the same atmosphere of strange shadows so characteris- tic of the "Kelevala" a kind of Finnish " Nibelungenlied." The Finnish character is the outcome of a triumphant struggle against fearful odds. The Finnish Folk- Song is characterized by a perval- ance of 5-4 rhythms and a fre- quent repetition of the same note.
All these things are caught up and expressed in this Romanze. 'Tis music of tremendous power. There re also touches of indescribable sadness and yearning. To pro- perly understand the music, it is necessary to understand the Fin- nish literature, temperament, and religion. 'Tis not German, nor Russian, but a thing distinct and apart.
Humoreske, op. 107 No. 7 Anton Dvorak 1841-1904 Dvorak (pronounced Dvor'- zhak) was the son of an inn- keeper at Muhlhausen, Bohemia.
His music is marked by a strong national spirit, love of exotic col- or, odd rhythms, sudden modula- tions and curious melodic inter- vals. It is simple in intention, never morbid, and rarely intellec- tual. This Humoreske is one of his best known works and was written originally for the piano- forte.
Venetian Boat Song Nevin Athulbert Nevin, one of the most popular of American com- posers. Born near Pittsburg in 1862; died at New Haven in 1901.

Alfred's team is on the field, T— team is bound to yield, For we've got the stuff.
Down the field the fighters go, Sometimes fast and sometimes slow, But its sure enough,
When they play so well—
Just hear old A' U. yell.
CHORUS—
Touchdown, touchdown;
Every minute means a touchdown.
That's the'way to fight, Great big time tonight.
We will have a celebration That will surely shake the nation.
Touchdown, touchdown, Put it over just once more boys And the score will be all right Again tonight
But I guess we better have another touchdown.

puts the common belief with brutal frankness:
"That there should be a certain amount of animosity between the two lower classes is no alone natural, it is also desirable. The old adage that everybody loves a fight holds on the campus as it does elsewhere."
That "everybody loves a fight" is a genial explanation of the state of Europe and it is undeniably "natural"
to delight in the annoyance of in- feriors, but the campus does not seem a, suitable place for the deliberate cul- tivation of primeval vicousnees. Re- cent regulations have done away with the grosser forms of hazing but have left the moral evil of it untouched.
Saving the freshmen from the torture nd danger of the old customs is doubt- less desirablte, but the net gain is slight, since the mider forms of tyranny meet with more general toleration and in- flict more lasting injury upon the characters of those who impose them and those who submit to them. To tie a man to the railroad track, to bury him alive or brand him with silver nitrate are not pastimes in which one is apt to find delight after his sopho- more days, but the habit of imposing one's will upon others in the matter of dress and conduct is not so easily utlived. A man who has been allow- ed to dictate to younger and less edu- cated men what color neckties and socks they shall wear, what they shall sing and where they shall walk, is apt to carry into later life the belief in class distinctions and intolerance which his college training has given

Alfred, N. Y., October 31, 1916 OUT-OF-TOWN FRIENDS The management wishes to ex- press its appreciation to those out- of-town Fiat subscribers who have so generously responded to this year's manner of soliciting subscriptions. It is felt that you are deeply interested in the suc- cess of the paper and are doing your share. At present one hun- dred ten return cards of the two hundred fifty which were sent out, have been received, of which eighty-two have expressed their desire to be subscribers. The proportion is very encouraging.
If you are one who has not re- turned a card, it would be con- sidered a favor if you would do so at once. The Fiat needs your hearty support and do not cross out the "enter" if you can spare the dollar fifty in any way!
VACATION, ELECTION DAY Vacation has been declared for a week from today, so that the students may witness or take part in, according to sex, the last stages
of the election game.
The Fiat is a non-partisian paper and has never shown any preference for the slogan "He kept
~us out of war," nor favored the statement of "words not deeds."
The campaign has been clean, the attacks have been violent, but limited to Wilson's policy, not Wil- son, the man, and to Hughes' party, not Hughes, the individual.
May the best man win and in some
•way lower the price of paper. "
THE COLLEGE MAN OWES SERVICE TO SOCIETY Teaching as a payment—The
Teacher, a Student of Life—
Prof. Clarke Tells Y. M.
C. A.
A most interesting meeting oc- curred Sunday evening, led by Prof. F. S. Clarke, of the Educa- jton Department.
His lecture was one of a series
;which the program committee has arranged to cover vital interests jef the college man, and treated of 'The College Man as a Teacher and his Relation to the Com- munity. ''
Some of his remarks were as follows: The college man is a irivileged individual and owes nuch to society which is not de- manded of the man who is not so fortunate.
One can best pay this obliga- ion by joining one of the so-call- ed professions—one of the oecu- tations of social service. A pro- ession demands a larger knowl- dge than a trade and deals with ndividuals, while a trade deals with materials used for an end.
V profession deals with humanity nd requires resourcefulness to neet the varied types.
Of the three institutions that ised to promote education—name- 'y, the home, the church, and the school—only the latter still re- ains its- potency, undiminished by he trend of evolution.
The college man is thus con- ronted with an obligation, and a esponsiblity which can in no way, be so ably met as in the eaching profession. He must be- ome a student of life and pre- pare the pupil for it.

It has already been planned to ecure Dr. Leigh Calvin, candidate or the United States Senate, to

BASKETBALL UNDER WAY
"Outlook Good," Says Manager Whitford
For the past two weeks gradu- ate manager Whitford, in addi- tion to his many "other duties, has been formulating a schedule of basketballgames for the approach- ng season. Although the schedule has not as yet been made public, it can be said that there are about ten games scheduled, with lie probability of minor changes.
St. Bonaventure wishes to arrange a game, but it will be left to the judgment of manager Whitford whether or not Alfred wants to play teams from such a college, a college that has the kind of an athletic spirit of St. Bona.
The prospects for a fast team were never better than they are this year. Three of last year's stars are back; Cottrell, Decker, and Saunders, and there are fine reports of Lobaugh's former skill at tossing the ball. If he plays basketball as well as he plays football, Cornell and Princeton should be put on the schedule.
Then there are a few of last year's second team; Burgott, Witter, Hagar, and others. New material which showed itself in the inter- class tournaments of last year is likewise plentiful in both the eol- ege and the Agricultural School.
It will be something short of a miracle if Alfred does not put out a winning basketball team this season.
A meeting of all old players will be called soon for the elec- tion of a captain, so that the men who are so inclined, can be out
vorking up their wind and eye.

Titsworth Begins Lectures Before Y. W. C. A.
Sunday night, Dr. P. E.
Titsworth gave a most interesting lecture before the Y. W. C. A. or- ganization. The subject of the lecture was "Modern Science and the Bible," and was full of inter- esting and helpful suggestions re- garding the interpretation ot many passages, which have puz- led conscientious Bible students.
iThe Bible was never intended for a text book on science, and a most reverent study of its pages finds that science detracts nothing from truths taught therein—while the truths of tcienee do not, in the mind of the enlightened students, conflict with the great moral truths in the Bible.
This is the first of a series of five lectures Dr. Titsworth is to give the Y. W. on "Funda- mentals. It is safe to predict that 10 one who heard the first lecture will miss any of the remaining four, the subjects and dates of which are as follows.:
"The Sub-Conscious Mind," Nov. 5.
"Men'b Undeveloped Powers—The 'owers of Suggestion," Nov. 12.
"The Rebirth of Religion—The Psy- chology of Prayer," Nov. 19.

Dean Kenyon Reports Convo- cation
The Assembly address of October 25 was given by Dean Kenyon in the form of a report of the Fifty- second Annual Convocaton of Re- gents, held at Albany, Oct. 19 and 20.
The program for Thursday morning was "The Basic program for Ciyic training" by Dr. Irving Fisher of Yale. In this, Dr. Fisher said that one by-product of the War, in America, was the change in pont of view toward physical development, which had resulted in physical education in the pub- lic schools and military training outside the schools.
'' An address in memory of Seth Low" by Pres. Rhees of Roches-
ter University.
"An address of welcome to Presidents entering upon office during this last year."
The evening session was under the topic, "The "Written Word."

The Written Word—How to teach it.
The Written Word—in the Daily Press—by a representative of the New York World.

Dr. Charles F. Wheelock assist- ant Commissioner of Secondary Education advanced the six year elementary school itraining plan which provides the common tool subjects for all pupils and in a two year Junior High School course ascertains the natural bent of the pupil and which satisfies the natural and practical needs of the many different groups of stu- dents.
Session 2. The Pictured Word.

Messages came from various parts of the country and a greeting was received from the President of University of California. By use of telephone the Board of Regents conferred the degree of doctor of laws on Thomas Edison who heretofore refused all degrees, claiming he had no time to go and get them, but he had to take this when it was telephoned in to him.

wordy discussions on every point which offered any opportunity for argument.
O'Brien's speed, Crossetti's weight and Carmaunt's general- ship was responsible for the greater part of the victory. Al- fred's 138 pound back field play- ed a hard game but couldn't give the shove to her attacks. Lo- baugh and Brainard on the ends, bore the brunt of the attacks, Boyd at center, was in every play and the nerve of Williams and Witter in charging the heavy line was admirable.
Only three penalties were in- flicted during the whole game.

THE GAME IN DETAIL 1st Quarter
Alfred kicked off to Carmaunt on the 40 yard line. In the sec- ond play Boyd forced Carmaunt to fumble and Witter caught Bona's pass on the following play.
Alfred couldn't make her downs and MacClelland kicked for 40 yards. Bona was forced to re- turn the punt and proceeded to hold Alfred for downs. O'Brien tore off 15 yards, Crossetti 6, Ca- hil 5 and O'Brien plowed through the line for 40 yards and a touch- down; Carmaunt failed to kick the goal.
Brainard ran Bona's kick off to the 45 yard line but Bona won the ball on downs, a poor pass from center lost 10 yards for the Brown and White and Alfred again covered the pigskin. A long pass to Lobaugh failed, Witter and Crawford made 7 yards and O'Brien caught Alfred's pass.
Quarter up with Bona in possess- ion of the ball on her 40 yard line.
2d Quarter
Decker broke up Carmaunt's pass and King caught a pass in the next play. Alfred was soon forced to kick, and by a long end run, O'Brien ran the ball to Alfred's 11 yard line. (Slavin for Clarke) Here Alfred held and compelled Bona to attempt a drop kick, which failed. Alfred soon kicked out of danger, Lobaugh downing Carmaunt on Bona's 22 yard line 60 yards away from the punting position. Bona punted and gained the ball again by inter- cepting a pass. (Daly for O'Brien). Alfred forced her to kick again and seemed to come back strong. (Conolin for Kelly).
Four times the purple and gold rushed Bona for first down and was well on the way to forcing a touchdown when the half ended.
3d Quarter
The game seemed to settle into a punting contest neither side be- ing able to gain first down, one of Alfred kicks proved fatal when Matineau recovered it as blocked and ran 40 yards for a touch- down. (Pryle for Shea). Slavin kicked the goal and Bona kicked off again, Lobaugh being downed on his 33 yard line. (Shea for Sullivan). Clarke caught Alfred's pass and in the next play Cara- maunt went around the end for 20 yards and a touchdown. The goal was not kicked. 19-0.

THE STEINHEIM
2240 Anthropology ' Apollo Belvedere Cast of bust only.
Leiri window, front rotunda I.
The original, which is in the Vatican, was found at the close of the 15th century in the ruins of a villa of ancient Antioch. It is said to be a specimen of fourth century Greek art.
The statute is of heroic size and depicts Apollo as hunting. The features are finely cut, the face is expressive—a scornful lift of the . proud lips, the brow just hinting
of a contraction and the quivering nostrels all seem to suggest some definite hasty demand upon the god, rousing him to action. The calm unruffled forehead with its elaborately done hair is in direct contrast with the other features and would seem to show the handi- craft of a far later Roman sculp- tor.
2241 Anthropology Tfie Wounded Lioness
(J. J. Merrill)
Over the Stairway to II floor.
The original, found near Sar- danapolis of ancient Ninevah, is (in the British Museum and be- longs to the period of 625 B. C.
The kings of that city used to live in elaborate places built for them and left as a monument to them. The walls were decorated with the pictorial account's of their reigns, executed in elaborate bas- reliefs. Here the archives of the reign, as well as the Royal Likeness, were preserved as in a royal library, in tablets of clay.
The subject is part of a hunting scene. The King and his archers have wounded a powerful lioness and, at bay, she is making her last stand. Three arrows have already pierced her body, one of them breaking her back.

VARSITY TO HOLD SECRET PRACTICE
Betrayal of Signals to Bona, Arouses Management to
Action
As long as Alfred houses in- dividuals who are willing to give valuable information to her opponents of her football plans, she must arouse herself to action and guard against a repetition of this most unsportsmanlike of ciimes at subsequent contests.
Although prone to lose the bene- fit gained by the presence of the loyal students on the side lines during practice, the Coach had rather dispense with it than see an iteration of the handicap im- posed upon the team last Friday.
Figure out as many original ways as possible to make the men feel your support, but re- member the only way to see practice hereafter is to join the squad—a worthy suggestion, by the way. This plan will be in effect • until after the Hobart game.
MUCH SPIRIT, LITTLE ACTION
Bliss '17 Appeals, At Mass Meet- ing, For Larger Squad The spirit manifest at the mass meeting Thursday evening, had a great deal to do with the fight the men put up Friday afternoon.
Pres. Bliss '17, presided, but gave the most of the time over to Ayars '17, cheer leader.
Speeches by Prof. Pontius, Clark's '20, Leighton Boyes Ag '16, and " M a c " were right to the point and gave the students a foundation upon which to work.
The "wild indians" mentioned last week, were there and did their whoopingest.
A direct appeal was made by all who spoke for the men who were not hindered by physical ailments to come out for the squad. Without speaking against the Glee Club at all, Bliss thought that it didn't speak well for our type of man- hood when 60 men would come out to sing and only 25 would come out to play football.
