PAGE EIGHT THE FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1958From the editors . . .Commencement. . .We have often wondered why the name "commencement"has been applied to a graduation exercise, an exercise thatbrings to mind something ending, not beginning.After thought on this matter, however, it suddenly becameapparent to us that the name "commencement" is indeed quiteappropriate both to the graduating exercise itself and to theaccompanying academic atmosphere in which the graduatingstudent finds himself.This time of the year marks a commencement not only forthe graduating seniors but also for the remaining three classeswho have moved up to greater responsibilities along with theirincreased prestige as upperclassmen.This day of moving up connotes something altered, if notcompletely new. It is significant, it seems to us, that aftermoving up there is no longer on campus any freshman class.Perhaps this is symbolic of a new aura on campus, one of increasedawareness and more mature thought and action. Wehope this latter is not a hasty assumption, but a sound theory.Commencement, to our graduating seniors, marks the beginningof a new life, in some cases completely divorced fromthe academic and in others a continuation of what has gone before.While it may mean the termination of four years at <strong>Alfred</strong>,it can carry within it all the memories, expectations, and accomplishmentsthat these years have come to represent in a differentand more objective manner.sWe say goodbye to our graduating seniors, whose faces wewill see only occasionally in the years to come. But we say "aufwiedersehen" to those remaining.We convey our good wishes both to those graduating andto those who we will again see in the fall. With these wishes goour hopes that this end of the year will indeed be the beginningof a more fruitful search for knowledge and a realization ofworthwhile goals—on the part of all <strong>Alfred</strong>ians: graduates andundergraduates.Senate Voiceby Ronda Shaner and Al TucknianIn the Senate, last (week, th freshmen, supervising and aidingtwo major points discussed ware in the success of all social events,final plans for Moving Up Day and j acting as guides for campus toursithe forthcoming Orientation Week j and general cooperation with theprogram.

TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1958 THE FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK PAGE THREEHonegger Uses a PrimitivismIn His "King David" Oratorioby Joseph Peters"King David," an oratorio to bepresented this Sunday at 8:00 p.m.at the Village Church, derives itsfreshness and dramatiic power fromtwo characteristics.First, the use of a narrator tocairry the story allowed composerArthur Honegger to abandon the oftendrab recitative passages. But,it is primarily the music for soloists,choru s and orchestra—thecommentators on the action—-thatmakes the contemporary oratorioa powerful experience.Honegger was a member of aParis group called "Les Six," whichrebelled against the excesses of Romanticism.Its techniques call forprimitivism rather than sophistication,syncopation in preference over.grace. Its richness is derived fromalmost acid dissonances in brass,woodwinds and percussion.Yet Honegger did not write themusic for "King David" merely toLee to Assume PositionWith Math DepartmentPaul Chih-yuan Lee, a native of•China who has studied and taughtin' the United States, South Africa,and China, has been appointed asInstructor in mathematics.Lee will begirt teaching here inSeptember. His wife and daughtermow are in Hong Kong and expectto join him in the near future. Atthe present time, Lee is professorof mathematics at Ferrum JuniorOollege in Ferrum, Virginia.Born in Kwantung, China, Leestudied in his native country andreceived a B.S. in mathematics andterurveying ifirom NationalCentral<strong>University</strong> at Nanking in 1941.

The term of officebecame effective after the annualmeeting of trustees which was(held on campus May 2.A native of Almond and a graduateof AU, Mrs. Jackson was a highschool English teacher tor thirteenyears.In 1936, she became the first womanadmitted to the bar in SteubenCounty. She engaged in generalpractice and criminal appealswork for fifteen years.In 1951, she was elected HornellCity Judge and she won re-electionIn 1955. As an active leaderin civic programs, Mrs. Jackson Ischairman of the Harnell MarriageCounseling Service and a director"Of the Steuben County MentalHealth Association.taught mathematics and geographyat Chinese Higlh School in Johannesburg,South Africa.Lee was associate professor ofohartography and mathematics atSun Yat-sen <strong>University</strong> in Chinafrom 1946 to 1949 when he came totie United States to begin religiousstudies at Central Bible Institute,Springfield, Mo., while serving theInstitution as a language teacher.Hie received a degree of Master ofReligious Education at Bible Seminaryin New York City in 1952 andthen began four years of study atTeachers College of Columbia <strong>University</strong>.In 1956, Lee took his current positionait Fenrum Junior College. Heis completing work leading to thedegree of Doctor of Education fromColumbia <strong>University</strong>.be a rebel, although thie oratorioabounds in apparent discord. Theseclashes are to be expected, and theycontribute greatly to Honegger's interpretationof the story.The composer apparently felt thatthe strongly individual religion ofthe Hebrews permeated into theirdaily lives. His score has capturedthis sensuality through innovationsthat sometimes call for chorus andorchestra to be performing in twodifferent keys simultaneously.-'Furthermore by abandoningmany of the conventions of pastmusic, Honegger has been able torecreate typical sounds of instrumentsknown in the times of David.The <strong>University</strong> 'Chorus, Orchestraand soloists, along with RonaldBrown as the Narrator will beperforming under tihe direction ofDr. David Johnson.SororityElectionsAll the sororities held electionsfor next year's officers recently.

TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1958 THE FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK PAGE THREEState Meet Saturday;Saxons Gun For CrownThis Saturday <strong>Alfred</strong>'s trackteam will be on the road for thefirst time this month. Undefeatedin dual competition this year, theSaxons will be looking for a victoryin the New York State M®etat Harpur Collegia.Coach James McLane, sportingone of his finest teams in manyyears, is looking forward to capturingthe New York State Crown.The Saxon squad has not been¡too strong in the field eventsprevious years, but this yearthings look better in that department.Freshman Tom Pohida hascome along beautifully in 'the shotput and may help to provide theSaxons with some punch in thatdepartment for some time to come.Of course, Steve Kelly, has beenjust about unbaatable in the broadJump and Coach McLane will undoubtedlybe looking in his .directionfor a few points on Saturday.Frank Finnerty, Larry Sweetand Joe DiCammilo are in a classall by themselves in the middledistance races. No college in theeta/te can boast 'three better runners.Coach McLane must obviouslybe looking for these boys, alongwith Willy Clark, Don Ulmer, andDave Wilcox to bring home the baconon Saturday.The following Saturday May 24,they will return to Terra CottaField to meet the Cortland cindermenin the final dual meet of theyear. Any bets on who wins?Linksmen BeatBrockpt6.5-2.5There was an ancient golf 'coach,who prayed to lady fate.And paced the floor; and watchedthe score,as AU beat Brockport State.The course was cold and windyas Girmindl swung his clubsAnd with beady eyes he watchedthe drivesland amidst a dozen shrubs.But always fear Girmindl,for a golfer fine is he.With his golf clubs he makes .noflubs.He won with a one, plus 73.But pity poor Hank Nestersoul shaken to the coreHis head he scratched, but lost hismatchto J. McDonald 5 and 4.Oh Golf balls, golf balls everywhere,and though the wind did stinkGolf balls, golf balls everywhere,and all his putts did sink.So Mike Tobias beat his man,with drive and corking drive.He beat him good. He beat himhard.He beat him 6 and 5.Then on the weekend of May 30and 31, Coach McLane will take aselect squad to the IC4A Meet atVillanova, Pa.What will happen down there isanybody's guess but as of now,Frank Finnerty is scheduled to runin the open mile against a numberof great milers, among whom isRon Delany. Of course no one cantell how a given runner will run agiven race on a given day, but lookfor Frank 'to stay right with Delanyuntil the last 200 yards or so.Sound ridiculous? O.K., here'sthe reasoning behind that statement.Finneirty has run a 4:17 mileon the 5-lap, unbanked track hereat <strong>Alfred</strong>. That is the equivalent toalmost any 4:10 mile on a solid44ap track. Rmember, too. thatFinnefpty has been pushed in onlyone race this year.

It has been said countless times beforeand no doubt it will be said countless times again. Whynot? It's true.To many Schools around the United States^ athletics is asmuch a business as baseball is to the Yankees. These schoolshave scouts spread far and wide to hunt for the best prospectsjust as the Yankees do. And whether we want to admit it or notthey pay these young prospects just as the Yankees do.Perhaps they do not pay cash, but even this is debatable.Regardless of whether they do or not, they pay. They pay theseathletes with something far more valuale than money. Theygive them a college education and a college degree absolutelyfree.Let's face it. Some of America's greatest collegiate footballand basketball stars barely graduated from high school. Yetthese men are worthy of college scholarships. Since the federalgovernment has been looking desperately for ways to improveour educational system, here's a suggestion. Why not take allthe millions of dollars that are paid by our colleges for 1 AMA-TEUR athletes, and give them to worthy youngsters who can't| afford to pay for a college education.

PAGE EIGHT THE FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1958Trackmen Outpoint Cornell B;Finnerty Breaks 880 Record, Well over a thousand spectatorsgathered on Terra Cotta field lastSaturday, to watch as the <strong>Alfred</strong>track team turned back the Cornel!B team, 87 2-3 to 99 1-3. It was anotheronesided affair in -which theSaxons ran up points almost atwill.The highlight of th« day wasFrank Finnerty's assault on the 30yeair ,old half mile record of 1:56.0which he broke with a clocking of1:64.8.As in previous meets the Saxonsfaced little competition in the runningevents, taking first in allevents 'but the 220 yd. low hurdles.In that event Coacih McLane pulledstate champ Willy Olark out of therace to avoid running up an evenmore lopsided «core.The meet got under way at 2:30with Frank Finnerty running aneasy 4:22.6 mile. Some of the crowdwas disappointed as they had hopedto see him break the record of 4:-17.8 that he set just two weeks ago.However, Frank was apparentlysaving himself for bis assault onthe half mile mark.Finnerty got off to a quick leadIn the 880 (what else?) but waspressed for most' of the race byteammate Larry Sweet. As a matterof fact Sweet ran a terrific¡race himself. His time of 1:57.8wa-s good enough to win just aboutany race, except this one. Sweet,only a sopihomore this year, maywell prove himself to toe as greata middle distanoe runner as Finnerty,in the years to come.Joe DiCamillo scored another victoryin the two mile Tun, winningwith a time of 9:15.5. Thie trio ofDiCamillo, Sweet and Finnertymake the Saxons just about invinciblein the middle distanoe races.Steve Kelly clears the high jump bar and demonstrates theform which makes him a threat for <strong>Alfred</strong> l!n that event as well asthe broad jump.Of course, while we're on the subject,Willy Clark makes the Savonsjust about Invincible in thehurdles and Don Ulmer has yet tobe knocked off in the 440 yd. dash.Put it all together and you cometo the conclusion that <strong>Alfred</strong> hasone of the best track teams in thestate.One mile run — Finnerty (A), DiCamillo(A), tUanchard (A). 4:22.6.440 yd. dash — Clark (A), Mattucci(A), Colven (C). 10.3. .120 yd. high -hurdles — Clark (A),Hodges (C), Abadon (C). 16.0880 yd. run — Finnerty (A), Sweet(A).

Winnerqt the tournament was Le-Moyne College of Syracuse and insecond position was Oanisius Collegeof Buffalo.In the individual standings, Un-Fiererion's Ben Gddley received top honorswith a round of 73. Gary GUrmindlwas the (highest Saxon in thestandings as he shot a round of 81,for 15 position. Following Oirmindlfor <strong>Alfred</strong> were Hank Neater withan 84, Mike Tobias with an 85 andBob Parke with a 98.Searching Saxon('Continued from Page 7start to graduate more potential Ph. D.'s and fewer potentialBob Pettitts from our colleges and universities.It is tragic, I think, that thousands of capable young menand women will never be able to make full use of their talentsbecause our educators find it necessary to compete withprofessional sports. All this goes not only for fpotball and basball,but for track, and any other college sport in which scholarshipsare handed out to men who don't belong in college andwho wouldn't be there but for their athletic ability.We can all be proud that <strong>Alfred</strong> has never sacrificed itsacademic standards in order to bring name athletes to thisschool. The names of athletes who were refused admission to <strong>Alfred</strong>because of their poor scholastic records, would fill a "Who'sWho Of Collegiate Sports." Yet these men were accepted readilyto less discriminant schools and went on to become great starsin their fields. Their names are not important, for it is not thepurpos'e of this article to embarass anyone unnecessarily. Letit be enough to say men like Jimmy Brown, All-American fromSyracuse <strong>University</strong>, have been turned down at <strong>Alfred</strong>:Yes, we give athletic scholarships. But even these scholarshipsrequire the recipients to put in work on a board job. Yetdespite these seemingly prohibitive restrictions, <strong>Alfred</strong> has alwaysbeen well represented in all intercollegiate sports. Thishanding out scholarships right and left to land top talent. Inspite of the fact that the Saxon cindermen rank among the toptwo or three teams in the state, only Frank Finnerty is underfull scholarship, and only a few of the other runners event haveboard jobs.We all know that when a scholarship boy doesn't make thegrades required by the university of all students, he getsbounced; and with no undue ceremony. Regardless of how, greatan athlete he may be, his ability doesn't carry weight with theacademic deans.Congratulations <strong>Alfred</strong>!
