Red Cross Sets ,075 as Goal In Local Drive
Anyone got $1075? If you have ithe Red Cross can use it or in fact any amount.
A drive to raise $1075 in Alfred and Alfred Station is being now conducted.
Chairman of the drive among students is Bob Swart who is working with the village committee headed by Ben Crump. Clarence Mitchell is treasurer.
Solicitors are: Barbara Bebarfald, Dorothy Bennett, Ruth Butterfield, Nancy Gardner, Betty Henderson, Edie Hise, Jej A Hunt, Anne Hurley, David Joseph, Emily Oliver, James Reed, Phil Sanger, Lew Sonenshine, Ed Sockler, Ralph, Swanson, and Rob- ert Swart.
While no goal has been set for the University, Swart has asked students to contribute as much as possible to the solicitors ift their houses. The
$1075 goal is 27 per cent higher than last year's. 6'5 per cent of the money collected will remain in Allegany County.
According to national Red Cross headquarters the organization is cur- rently "providing blood p'asma, train- ing some 20 million persons in first aid, instructing 100,000 women and girls to serve as nurse's aides, teaching many more thousands home nursing skills, recruiting more than a half mi'lion additional volunteers to aid local defense units and to serve in expanding military installations.
Aiding Swart in setting up the drive were Carolyn Blankheit and Gilbert Bell.

Candidates Present Platforms
Classes Will Also Choose Officers
By Boris Astrachan
Students will go to the polls Fri- day to elect next years Senate Presi- dent and class officers.
Four Juniors running for the Sen- .ate presidency, briefly outlined their
platforms in Fiat interviews. Com- plete platfprms will be presented to the Ag-Tech students at their assem- bly today and to University students in their Thursday assembly. •
Elections will be held from 9 to 5 Friday, at Fireman's Hall. Elections Chairman Carl Mead promised that there would be no waiting in line as there had been in previcus years.
"We'll keep things moving," he said.
"There will be one machine for Ag- Tech and one for University... Senate*
Council and Class presidents will have names on the machine. Other class officers will be voted for by paper ballot.
Beverly Callahan, only female can- didate fpr the president's office, and this years Senate Secretary, was brief and somewhat secretive in outlining her platform. "Practicability is the word," she emphasised.
Bardon Conroe presented a three plank platform indicating that he in- tends to work for (1) better student- administration relationships, (2) a closer relationship with other colleges and universities, and finally (3) more joint Ag-Tech-University activities, so that students in each school can get
| to know one another better.
Val Cushing indicated a revolution- ary program. He favors establishment of a Board of six members elected as we now elect the president, in order to bring added efficiency to the Serf- ate; and to further break up "the game between^fraternities".
San Higgins proclaimed that,. "my campaign is nothing revolutionary."
He analyzed the world situation as it is expected to affect the colleges in the coming year and indicated that a smaller enrollment and consequently smaller budget would call for a more efficient management of Senat affairs.
Stan feels that he is competent to carry on such a program, because of his two years Senate experience and his experience on the Senate Appropri- ations Committee.
It is expected that a hotly contested battle will be waged for the presiden- cy of the class of '53. Joe Blonsky, class president in his freshman year, will run against Barry Bradford, his freshman year vice president. Candi- dates for vice president are Sol Co- pulsky. Rose Seibert and Ray Spear.
Dot Bennet is running against Bob Double for secretary, and Jim Me- Farland and Marv Eisenberg have been nominated for treasurer.
— 0 —
Running for senior class president are Donald Boulton, Wally Henion, jAndy Ippolito and Claire Seeley.
| Other candidates are Dave Benzing, j Stan Cole, Dave Pixley and Carl Small for vice president; Janis Formont, Art Hyman, Jean McGraw and Bob Owens for secretary and Bernard Bertrand, Herb Larisch, Barbara Shackson and Bil Sutton.

PAGE TWO THE FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK TUESDAY FEBRUARY 27, 1951
Dr. Clark Replies Letters To The Editor
To the "Exploding Engineer:"
Despite the modification and editing which your letter apparent- ly received at the hands of the editor. I think I gather what you are trying to say. Namely, that you would like the rate of instruction (especially in mathematics) so geared that you could proceed at your | own rate "even if it took VI years to finish." In certain institu- j tions, and Alfred to some extent, this would be a reasonable request;
as some Mike the University of Chicago) are set up to handle each student at his own pace. At Alfred, however, the assumption is made that students come more or less prepared to handle the course work as it is offered; and frankly, if you are as poorly equipped as you claim ("I'm a dope), then perhaps it was the University's mistake in ever admitting you.
Don't give up, though. At least, you have learned one very im- portant principle, which President Lowell of Harvard once stated very clearly:
"There is only one thing which will really train the human mind and that is the voluntary use of the mind by the man himself. You may aid him; you may guide him; you may suggest to him; and, a- bove all, you may inspire him; but the only thing worth having is that which we get by our own exertions; and what we get is propor- tionate to the effort we put into it."
The most disturbing misconception I think you entertain is that
"college was supposed to take the place of experience." Far from it.
It can, for some, train men to think more accurately, clearly, and quickly; such that they are better able to profit from their experi- ence after they get out of college. Most successful engineers will tell you that do not really learn engineering until you are out on the job, but that college can make a' whale of a difference in training^you how to learn.
At least you sense that "cheating and brown nosing" get you no where; but I would suggest there is another choice. Select only those courses in which you can keep up with reasonably well; or if there are none, then transfer to some other institution where there are. And above all, try to make some distinction between your own shortcom- ings and those of the University. Ascribing the former to the latter is known psychologically as "projection", and your letter is a clear- cut example. •»

" We Stink"
Lumbert Proclaims
Thoughts on Electioneering
Four candidates are presenting to the Ag-Tech Assembly their ideas on how student government should be run at Alfred. Thursday they will repeat these ideas to a smaller University group. Friday, after weighing these ideas carefully, the students will tramp to the polls and vote for the candidate who had the biggest signs or the candidate who belongs to the right social organization or the candi- date who has the waviest hair.
Aaah, that's OK. The college isn't going to change too much no matter who is elected. But if you are interested in judging a candidate by other standards, listen for a minute to this self appointed voice of
experience and then go ahead and do what you please.
Don't pay too much attention to promises unless they correlate with the candidate's past record. Remember that new ideas can more easily be presented from the floor than from behind the gavel.
What you can tell from a candidate's speech is whether he or she has a solid grasp an what is going on in the organization and whether he or she will make a presentable leader of the student body.
Can the candidate think on his feet? Will he or she make an adequate intermediary between students. _ and faculty?
As for flamboyant signs, torch light parades and other stunts, they are fun. And they speak well of the candidate's canjpaign mana- ger, i
* * • • * * # *
Draft Dave
But to get down to cases. There is nothing to go on in judging a candidate's record except the Senate minutes and personal memory.
Neither are conclusive.
In two years on the Senate, Stan Higgins has served on the Ap- propriations, Who's Who and Frosh Week committees, all of which involve work. He also led an investigation of the $25 spring deposit instigated by the University last year.
Bev Callahan served a year as secretary. This is a major job
•which involves recording and rewriting the minutes of each meeting so that they will pass Bill Gallow's inspection.
Val Cushing is a design student who avoids outside committee work as much as possible although he is active in initiating discussion.
Bard Conroe, whatever his record as a class president, has no record as a Senator either in the minutes or in the memory.
All things taken into consideration, no candidate deserves the presidency as much as Dave Pixley, who did not choose to run. Often an opponent of the Fiat, especially on the NSA and drinking ques- tions, Pixley has continually shown initiative as a Senate representa- tive on the MAGB, the drape committee, the Scoreboard committee, and his baby, the NSA. He refused nomination because as a glass major he wouldn't have the time to handle the job. Pooh! Paul Baker works 200 hours a week and still finds time for more work than he bhould have to do.
Pixley has been energetic and refreshingly independent in his ac- tivity in the Senate. It's too late to put his name on the election form, but small elections have been won before by write-in ballots.
It has been said that glass is sand with a college education. This is not necessarily true, but what college edu- cation has done for sand it can do for you. That is to say that a college education can mold you into a better and more useful tool#for humanity.
Personally, I didn't come here to be elevated for society's benefit. I wish to better myself exclusively for my own sake. If society receives any bene- fit* from my education (as inevitably it must) it will have done so without any effort on my part to bring about such an end.
So it seems that I am interested in my own advancement; society is in- terested in its own advancement, and that education alone h a s . n o ulterior motives, desiring only to help both the individual and society at large to more closely approach civilization.
But while education may be devoid of ulterior motives, many of its pro- fessors suffer from no such lofty am- bition. There can be no doubt that some of the faculty here at Alfred are interested primarily in their pay check, and secondarily in us students, if indeed they are concerned with us at all. But can you blame them? After all, what do they have to work with?
You and me! And we stink!
It is true that some instructors do not receive enough credit for their achievements and consequently resort to being vague in order to appear scholarly. However I do not think
"brilliant prof takes pride in keeping the class in the dark" is a legitimate excuse in the majority of the cases.
At least not here at Alfred.
It's true however that some of the courses given here are of such a tech- nical nature that it is difficult not to appear abstract from time to time while teaching them. The more so if the student has been lax in doing homework assignments.
Seton once remarked that "manhood, not scholarship is the first aim of edu- cation." This does not mean that if during the course of your college life you make slight advancement toward maturity you have become erudite.
What it does imply however is that, if, upon completion of the amount of education you are desirous of obtain- ing, whether that education be of grammar school, high school, or grad- uate school level, you still are not ap- preciably closer to maturity, then your education has not fulfilled its purpose.
Some people come here to get a de- gree. I didn't. I came here to get an education. The degree you receive from a college is merely one of the more obyious indications of the degree to which you have been educated.
Of course the using of college con- ferred titles as an equation to separate the Y's from the X's has been widely accepted. So widely accepted as to in- cur much misuse. Consequently you may someday be forced to play second fiddle to someone who doesn't know as much about a job as you do. And only because he has a degree. Perhaps from some course of study so remote from his duty he is performing that even miller indices couldn't relate them. But this fact should not stray you from getting an education. It should instead make you desirous of obtaining the education that will do you the most good. You mus,t then select the prbper institute to giv_e you that education. That is where college fits in. And it must fit in only be- cause you want it to.
Bernard Lumbert.
You're A Fool For Opposing Hello
Tradition
Dear Editor:
Do you really want to get rid of traditions? If you do, you "must be a fool. Only a fool would throw out the very backbone of civilization. People have been improving themselves by learning from their traditions. True, some of these traditions are slowing progress but progress should be by evolution not revolution. Are you too afraid or embarrassed to say "Hello"?
Alfred is known for being a friendly college where strangers can feel at home. Do you want to make it a con- crete jungle? It seems very strange to me that this editorial should come during Brotherhood week when peo- ple should be friendly towards one another. .
Yours truly, Urban Ludwig

Mend Fences With God Now
Bella Advises
"Now Is the time to start mending our fences with God," Prof. Salvatore Bella told University students and faculty members Thursday morning at a special assembly.
"It is a shame the way we rush a- round trying to "get in good with peo- ple with material benefits as the goal.
If we believe in God we should spend more time trying to get in good with him," Prof. Bella counselled.
Prof. Bella spoke 'at an assembly marking the conclusion of Religious Emphasis Week on the campus. He was introduced by Bob Steilen, presi- dent of the RFA.
"Where would you be if you knew you were going to die tomorrow?"
Prof. Bella asked. "We squander our time on earth becuase we can't con- template death. We act as if we were going to live forever," he said.
People place too much emphasis on little incidents in life, but the im- portance of these incidents would melt away if we knew we were going to die tomorrow he added. Using the eco- nomics concept of marginal utility he said that the last unit of anything—
the last few minutes or hours of life—
Twelfth Night' Scene Shifts
Are Problem
By Audrey Wallace
"The stage designer is an all im- portant creator and disciplinarian in producing a play," stated Prof. Ronald Brown, director of the forthcoming production of "Twelfth Night."
TheShakespearean comedy is to be presented the afternoon of Friday, March 16 as a feature of the St. Pat's Festival and Saturday, March 17 as a second performance.
One of the main problems in pro- ducing the play is staging. The stage designer gives the director a general area for acting, implying from the design, focus for scene shifts, from the street to a sea coast, for example.
Prof. Stanley Kazdailis'and Martin Moskof, ceramic design student, face the task of visualizing the scenes in sequence to plan a transition from one to another. First of all, they re-read the play to analyze the reqiurements of action and location. Numerous sket- ches are drawn to determine the visu- al equivalent for the moods of various scenes.
Models are made to determine ma- terials to be used, and to work out the movements, always keeping t h e lim- ited stage space in mind. The designer meets with the director and costume designer before completing the design.
"We must keep in mind that a typi- cal Elizabethan play is composed of a multitude of scenes, which call for some swift alterations between the comedy and romatic scenes," Prof. C.
Duryea Smith, technical director point- ed out.
According to Mr. Kazdailis, on the projective stage typical of the Eliza- bethan and Renaissance periods which will be ueed, the stage design is pro- jected toward the audience and also in the back-ground. The entire stage is being designed theoretically v in a black and white, diamond shaped checkerboard design.
Some experimentation is being used in stage design and lighting. For in- stance, "sculptured elements" are used to define various locations such as the outside and inside of a house.
In lighting, a movie screen is being used as a cyclodrama in the back- ground. Lighting will define the area in which the scenes are played and will shift the scenes to a large extent.
Prof. Kazdailis has had a great deal of experience in the field of design.
In Chicago, he studied at the Insti- tute of Design with Mahaly Nagy, well known as one of the pioneers in mod- ern development of design, and at one time director of Bauhaus, in Germany, first modern art school.
He collaborated with Mr. Nagy in motion picture work and was also a designer for a large printing house in Chicago. In addition, he worked for the Cuneo Press and Scott Fords- en and Company, Chicago textbook publishers.
Later, he held a position with Bar- tolacci-Waldheim, an architecture firm, which specializes in designing houses, apartment buildings and offices. Two years ago, he became a professor in the Department of Ceramic Design here.

becomes more valuable than the first simply because it is the last.
"People grow old before our eyes without our notice because we are too busy rushing around. We notice the growth in children a little more be- cause they are novel," he added.
He urged his audience to notice the smaller, more meaningful things in life—"the things that make life rich- er and more fruitful." These are more important than the constant struggle for material things he said.
Prof. Bella's talk concluded Relig- ious Emphasis Week which also in- cluded a chapel service Wednesday and informal discussions on religion led by faculty members in fraternities and sororities Feb. 18 and 19.
College Town
A Woody Lover
You can't please all of the people all of the time, and I guess that's just about as right as it is supposed to be. The St. Pat's Board has succeed- ed in obtaining just about the besi band which has been in a 50 mile radius of this place, and still people complain. And that best band business would include "Salty" Austin, Art Mooney, Tommy Tucker, Elliot and Jimmy Dorsey.
Some people appreciate modern music. "The Thing" and "The Tennes- see Waltz" excluded. Those people generally like Woody Herman. Way back in the dim days before the sec- ond great war, Glenn Miller and his orchestra was top seller on all record machines. At the same time a young man with much talent was doing up- state New York circuit, playing most- ly the blues.
He had it, and a few people who should know about those things knew it. By the time 1945 had rolled around, the boy had worked himself and his Herd into number one spot on five nation-wide polls, including Metronome and Downbeat. In 1945 "Bijou" was voted top jazz tune of the year. By 1945 the Herd had passed from the blues to "Apple Honey" type jazz. In the same year, a second-hand blue label Decca, originally $.35 was costing collectors $3 in 6th Avenue clip-joints.
The platter was Herman's theme,
"Blue Flame."
The Herd, without a doubt, was deserving of all the awards it netted in that year. Among the outstanding musicians connected with the aggrega- tion were Bill Harris, one of the world's greatest slip-horn artists; Flip Phillips on sax; the bass of Chubby Jackson; Dave Tough on drums; Red Norvo, vibes; Billy Bauer, guitar, and vocalist, Francis Wayne. Arrangements were handled by Ralph Burns and Niel Hefti, who were perhaps the best in tbj» business.
The Long Hairs
Within the powerful whole was the small but impressive combo, the Wood- choppers, featuring clarinet, trombone, sax, drums, bass, piano, and guitar.
The unforgetable Woodchoppers have been recorded on a Columbia 78 rpm album, which includes new versions
By Bev Callahan.
of old favorites, "I Surrender, Dear,"
and "Someday, Sweetheart." "Sur- render" has an up-tempo ending which even St. Patrick himseli would have to appreciate. One of the original sides in the collection is "Igor," dedicated to Igor Stravinsky of the long-hair Stravinsky's. It was in appreciation of Igor's "Ebony Concerto," efforts. Stra- vinsky directed the Herd in a perfor- mance of the concerto at Carnegie Hall. Regardless of what the big boys say, though, it is this one's opinion that the Woodchoppers did more for
"Igor" than he deserved. As Jack says:
"Quite Obscure."
Late in 1946 the band was disbanded.
It wasn't because of poor record sales.
The collection at the time had grown to 65. By 1948 the Herd was in full swing again: with some new crew mem- bers and with out-puts like "Tenderly,"
"Lady McGowan's Dream," and "Early Autumn." Mary Ann McCall had re- placed Francis Wayne; Don Lamond, who later made way for a well-known import from the "Kenton organization, Shelly Mann, filled the position left by the deceased Dave Tough.
How About Dancing
Some have been distressed about the- impossibility of dancing to the old Woodchopper and the Herd. Don't think that will be a problem. The St.
Pat's Board deserves a crowd like the temporary Gym has never witnessed.
If that's the case, dancing will be eli- minated anyway, and the Herd can really take off.
Regardless of any personal prejudi- ces anyone might have against the>
.nusic of the. boy, what the propaganda from the General Artists Corporation, says about Woodrow is true: he is one of the nicest guys in show busi- ness. Example: personal interview overheard between Woody and anxious fan: "Would you please sign t h i s ? "
(extends crumpled piece of perspera- tion-filled paper.
"Yes," he says gracefully. *
"Do you know," she said, panting,
"I have over 70 Woody Herman rec- ords."
"You do?" he said wonderingly.
"Yes," she sighed.
"That's nice," he said, admiringly;
"That's more than I've got."
Nevertheless, Woody, the Board, and fan would like to see you at St. Pat's.

Reviewer Praises GuitaristO but Finds Lack of Differentation
By Bill Webb
Sunday night the guitar under the masterful fingers of Andres Segovia came into its own right. No longer was it necessary ter rely upon Western Cowboy songs, or Southern Hillbilly music to make a guitar sound "sweet".
Segovia, who has just completed a tour of Europe, amazed his audience with his interpretation of the classics, with his finger dexterity and his alacrity.
No longer was there the sound of the strum, strum, strum, but each note was played clearly and concisely.
Segovia played with one hand what a pianist, usually takes two hands to play. However, it was felt that Segovia interpreted Segovia,—he played Seg- ovia, and not the interpretation of the Spanish people. In his encores Segovia truly interpreted the Spanish folk- songs, but as Segovia, not as a Span- iard.
Bach, Haydn, and Mendelssohn were played with precision, and nimbleness, as were M. Torroba, and Turina. How-
ever, to the non-critical ear they sound- ed alike. There was little differentia- tion between Haydn and Albeniz.
However, Segovia played well and truly differently than what the av- erage person expected. The guitar can now be classed with other classical
^instruments such as the violin and the cello. Segovia is an artist Indeed.
He makes the guitar come to life!

Dial Phone Service Scheduled
To Start Tommorow Morning
It's "Dr." Now
Declared Most Radical Change
By Frank Bredell
A 54 year old Alfred institution will come to an abrupt at 6 a. m., tomor- row.
A switch will be thrown in the new central office of the Allegany Tele- phone Company which will convert phone serivce here to the long-awaited dial system. The change will probably be met with some confusion on the part of residents unaccustomed to us- ing dial plumes.
The cutover to the dial system marks the end of an era here-an era of hand cranked phones powered by dry cells.
"With the change came new cradle phones, eliminating the old desk type and the separate bulky equipment for batteries and the magneto.
The iuipersonal dial tone will re-
place the operator's "number please,"
and automatic circuit breaking devices will eliminate the need for the opera- tor to ask "Are you waiting?" when there is silence on a circuit. (There were no warning lights on the old switchboard.)
But the new system will be also have Its inconveniences. You can no longer pick up the phone and merely tell the operator who you are trying to reach, or ask for the time or a movie pro-
E. W. Crandall & Son
gram, or the thousand and one other questions which operators have been expected to answer. The dial equip- ment will do away with all that.
Telephone communication in Alfred began in 1897 when one phone con- nected with a direct line to Hornell, was installed in a local hardware store. "When a call came in a mes- senger had to go out and bring in the party being called," William B. Har- rison, president of the company now.
said as he leafed through records of the old Alfred Telephone Co. which was the forerunner of the present Al- legany Telephone Co.
From the invasion of Alfred by one phone the company grew rapidly, plac- ing phones first in the doctor's office, then in Main Street stores and finally expanding to homes throughout the village in the Alfred area.
The company was formed Oct. 25, 1897 at the first directors meeting when C. T. Harris was elected the com- pany's first president. A. B. Cottrell was named vice president and W#-H.
Crandall became secretary-treasurer at the first meeting.
M. B. Greene who owned the line from Hornell to Alfred became the first line superintendent.
In 1901 three new members were added to' the board, C. D. Reynolds, Charles Stillman and D. Sherman Bur- dick. Mr, Burdick is the only member of the infant company who has lived to see it become a dial system. In 1905 he was elected secretary of the board of directors and served in that capa- city until 1949.
He called the change to dial, "The most radical change in the company in a long time."
By 1905 there were 106 phones in Alfred, all assessed for service annual- ly. There is no record in the directors's minutes of the rates the company charged in its younger days. In 1949 when Mr. Harrison took charge the rate was $1.50 a month. The base rate of a party line is now $2.50.
Mr. Harrison was elected company president in 1949 after purchasing Mr.
Burdick's controlling share. At the same time he bought the controlling interest in the Allegany Mutual Tele- phone Co. which serves the Village of Andover.
On January 1, 1933 the Alfred com- pany came under the jurisdiction of the Public Service Commission, and in 1998 became an agency of the Western Union, changing the company name to Alfred Telephone and Telegraph Co.
The Alfred and Andover companies were merged Oct. 30, 1950 to form the present Allegany Telephone Co.

Private phone companies have the ! same tribulations as the bigger out- fits, Mr. Harrison said. He told of a i 1936 sleet story which toppled most j of the poles between Alfred and Alfred Station which is also served by the company. "Service was interrupted on that line five or six days. Here in the I village things were almost as bad," he said.
At that time many of the single wires were replaced by cables and switchboard equipment was also im- proved. In recent years the growing number of calls has put a strain on the small switchboard.
The new dial system was installed by the Stromberg-Carlson Co. of Roch- ester and is tied to the Bell System in Hornell.
Students May Be Asked to Help Man
Observers' Tower
Alfred's air observation post in the tower of Kenyon Hall has successfully gone through two practice periods, but still needs volunteers to man the post.
This was announced this week by chief observer, Dr. William J. Sutton.
The post here is like thousands of similiar stations being set up within eight miles of each other throughout the country. The Ground Observer Corps, composed of these civilian posts, is responsible for protecting the nation from air attacks by supplement- ing radar defenses.
Radar is limited in its ability to spot planes below 5,000 feet and has a line- of- sight restriction which prevents it from covering areas blocked by hills.
Where radar is helpless, the Ground Observer Corps must do the job.
So far between 80 and 90 people have volunteered for training as ob- servers, but about 200 are needed to man the post full time. Dean of Men at Ag-Tech T. A. Parish has guaran- teed to fill the 2 to 4 a. m. shift with Ag-Tech students.
Although the post here is not in operation at the present time, it was manned 24 hours a day during much of World War 2.
If it is necessary to engage students, women will serve in the day and eve- ning and the men at night, he added.
Two people will work together on two hour watches, observing identify- ing and reporting planes to the filter center which will relay the necssary information to the air corps.
The Alfred Post is under the super- vision of Dr. Sutton and State In- spector Eugene Reynolds, bf the Ag- Tech faculty. Director of Civilian de- fense in Alfred is DeForest Truman.
Dr. Seidlin Attends Atlantic City Talks
Dr. Joseph Seidlin, Dean of the Al- fred University Graduate School, rep- resented Alfred on the committee of higher education for college teachers at a five day conference in Atlantic City. He returned Friday.
Other colleges represented at the con- ference were Florida State University, Ohio State University, Queens College, and the U. S. Office of Education for Stanford University.
Education groups represented at the conference were the National Institu- tional Teachers Placement Association, National Society for College Teachers Education, and American Association of School Administrators.
Dean Seidlin is director of teacher placement at Alfred and active in education circles.
Guidance Meeting Is in Session Here
A conference is being held here to- day and tomorrow for teachers, coun- selors and administrators concerned with guiding youth.
The general purpose of the work- ship is to promote the readjustment of high school education. The specific purpose is to enlist the interest of schools in inagurating guidance pro- jects, to assist schools in the develop- ment and improvement of comprehen- sive guidance programs; to develop a pattern or plan for continuing as- sistance to schools in carrying projects forward in the future.

NYU Awards Ph.D.
To Prof. Bernstein
Prof. Melvin Bernstein received a doctor's degree from New York Uni- versity yesterday.
Dr. Bernstein's dissertation was en- titled, "The Mind of John Jay Chap- man." Chapman, an American huma- nist, wrote over 25 books. Dr. Bern- stein did research work on all Chap- man's works and various other un- collected essays.
At present Dr. Bernstein is the only member of the EnglishTJepartment to hold a Ph.D.
During the three years that Dr.
Bernstein conducted his research he had' the opportunity of interviewing Robert Chapman, grandson of the author. The younger Chapman was enrolled as a student in _the School for American Craftsman here at Alfred last year.
Car Is Expensive AT Economics
Students|Find
Ag-Tech students studying economics are learning some amazing facts about automobiles as part of a total unit on personal finance.
For example, in discussing the costs of owning a car, it was learned that approximately $1.50 a day is spent just to own a modern car without driv- ing it a foot. It was also found that the cost of operating a car today av- erages six to eight cents per mile, and the average driver Covers 10,000 miles a year.
To most students' surprise, it was revealed that tlie weather factor which causes the greatest damage to cars is not ice or snow or sun, but dew.
Dean of Men T. A. Parish, in charge of the economics course, stated that the purpose of the unit is to demon- strate to students that a car is an expensive item of equipment, and the objective of the unit is not to dis- courage ownership, but to make stu- dents aware of the liability that goes with possessing a car. Dean Parish commented further on the role that insurance, particularly liability insur- ance, plays in car ownership.
The next part of the unit on per- sonal finance discussed will answer the question, "What does a young mar- ried couple do with with their dollar?"
Commenting on this next unit, Dean Parish said, "It isn't the amount of money that a person makes, it's what he does with it , that determines his prosperity or how well he lives."
