Fade As this is the first year that the Center has ever had a Girls' Basket ball Team and it is also the first year that many of the girls have ever played, we feel that perhaps the boys expected just a little too much of them. The rather dismal record follows: Two games were lost to the girls' team from Grebey Jr. High School. Two games with Misericordia were won by default. On March 25 Misericordia played host to the Cdnter Co-Eds - at Dallas High School. The team went down in glorious defeat. The final score was 46 to 15. There is another game scheduled with the faculty in the near future but we are unable to go into details at present. • The members of the team are: Forwards: Kathy Miodash (cap tain), Margie Dickman, Dolores Svien son, Grace Bendaliaz, Joyce Bevan. Guards: Julie Allen, Joan Lee, Bet ty Harlor, Marie RUssell. The team is coached by the very capable Florence Yannes, our school nurse. Miss Wood is the assistant cosh, and the manager is Marybeth Bommer. Although this year's record wasn't too encouraging, you must remember that Rome wasn't built in a day. We feel sure that in future years as more experience is gained, the team will also improve. You must not think too poorly of the team—you must •keep in mind that the girls had neither the proper support from the student body nor did. they have adequate reserves. Yet the girls greatly enjoyed them selves and after all it is really the spirit that counts... Anyway the law of averages says that have to win sometime and there is always an other chance next year to do that. Radio Is Finally Purchased The Student Council has approved the purchase of the Philco AM-FM radio which has currently been enter taining the students in the lounge. One hundred dollars of the money ap propriated for this radio purchase was used. This amount is considerab ly lower than the list price, and the majority of council members felt that in the interest/of value, economy, and a prompt settlement of a permanent arrangement, this purchase should be made. 1 4 rliiilpiligliiiMi!liPMMor,motpppillotlitm p•••••4:::.=i ll; .:::: N siiiii i *i ! iii:itiiivi!ioo.:.l:::t:mii: i g il l i i iiiiii22l2 f OOl ......... tYous DAn BoolEc.„. 4:30 P. M. TODAY VACATION HAZLETON COLL LIU Trips Hucksters In Season Finale Buck Freeman's Long Island Uni versity freshmen trimmed the Mule ton Undergraduate Center, 80-64, in a preliminary contest of the local Lionsl Club Dream Game. Height and re serve strength were the dominant fketors in the Blackbirds victory. The nationally famous Blackbirds from New York were in a contest all evening, never actually piling up a lead substantial enough to even coast through for any part of the game. L.l.U.'s starting five were all sky scrapers; John Curry, six -four, was the shortest starting performer. Individual scoring honors went to Ray. Felix, six-foot-ten center 22 points. Local scoring honors went to Walt Stanek, Jimmy Mulligan, and Jack Sipple, with Stanek caging 16 marks. Long Island brought with them a seven-foot-two center, Murray Tan nenbaum, but whether he was brought along for comedy or for his basket ball ability was a mystery to all who watched the game. The :game climaxed the season for the Rudmanites, whose final record stands at 4 wins and 13 defeats. Do You Wanna' Be A Writer (And Get Paid For It, Maybe ... ) We have received a bit of informa tion which might possibly be of in terest .to someone which we will now pass on to that someone. The Columbia Broadcasting System and World Video, Inc., a leading, tel evision producer are now conducting a nation-wide collegiate writing com petition. This program, to be known as OBS Awards, will feature four monthly prizes, on each at the end of March, April, June and May.

FITE COFFEE The wheel of life is fastened to many spokes, one of these spokes in my life is coffee. Yet, how many of us really appreciate the fine art that pro duces this satiating beverage? Over a million cups are sold daily. Coffee was served at Teheran; business contracts of fabulous amounts are decided oirer a cup of "Joe," then by all means, ro mances blossom, or alas, fade, all be cause of this nectar. To what avail all this? There is a very small appreciation for all the pleasure this beverage accords. There is no national Coffe Day no flags lowered to half-mast—no nuttin'. Now that the price of coffee has been in creased steadily, :there has been a feeling of resentmnt by all, so, being a Coffee lover, I have decided to stick to my true love in her hour of need. How many of you people can brew a good pot of "Joe" out in the wilds, away from ye olde super-duper kit chen? Not many, so lend us an ear while I divulge my deepest secret. The next time you are camping or picnicking, the inevitable will happen, Humphrey Visits Hazleton If you happen to read "Joe Pa looka" in the papers, you know all about Humphrey. While enroute to New York City, he stopped off at Mt. Palooka, down Wilkes-Barre way, and had to pass thru Hazleton in order to do this. Our McAdoo reporter tells us Humphrey was as busy as a one armed paperhanger helping all the truckers that were bogged down by the icy road conditions.. Before our reporter could approach Humphrey for an interview, •he had departed for Mt. Palooka. Too bad, we could have used him on the hill here to help us with our traffic jams. If WINTER COMES (Continued From Page One) There were " very few scenes like this during the winter, but on Friday, March 24, the fourth day of Spring, this is what the campus looked like. The snowman, cannon, and Nittany Lion which were sculptured on the front lawn by unknown persons proved to be too camera shy. They hid behind banks of fog until their death at the hands of high tempera tures. They were seen and appreciat ed by all, and their leaving us is the one sad note on the approach of real spring weather.

Production Staff Director—Miss Margaret Campbell Assistant Director—Nancy Byorick Properties—Louisa May Lights—Bill Kohler , OR DIE the coffee pot will he left behind! But, calm your fears, you don't need it; just get any container, fill it with water, and enough coffee grounds to meet the requirements of the water, then place it on the fire Wboil. Now, Now just play it cool, you have my twenty years of experience at the Waldorf-Astoria to guide you and rest in the arms of Morpheus, or count your money or sumthin', till the above mentioned water boils. When this happens, pour some cold water into the container that contains the water with the coffee grounds—this will knock the grounds to the bottom of the pot, so you can serve this vin tage with ease. So, you now have a Nectar of the Gods, and you rime it with your own brown hands. _ Of course, into each life some rain must fall, so if you happen to flub the dub, worry not; you can dash down to the cafeteria and get the best cup of coffee in town, (for only a nickel yet.) So there, I said it, and I'm glad! ANCHORS AWEIGH ... For Six Weeks The District Training Office of the.
