Jerry 'Tylman said, "The main
problem with this year's team
was that of our top seven men two
were sophomores and five were
freshmen. That meant that we
were mainly playing seniors and
juniors from four year colleges.
But, despite that fact, we still
managed - to finish with a 5-6
record. Inexperience in what hurt
this team."
On May 8 at the recent District
18 championship held at the

third in the section but defeated
the number two ranked player in

In the pitching department
Steve Jackson has been pitching
well to earn two of Behrend's vic
tories. Coach Spinelli stated,
"Our pitching staff is set
although I'd like to add one or two
power pitchers if possible.".
Coach Spinelli feels, "We'-re
playing better now, against Point
Park we were tied- or ahead
through five innings" in both
games. Against Westminster we
split with a 20-3 team."
Team co-captain Joe Fornear
stated, "Inexperience really hurt
this team. We were competitive
through five innings in most
games but lacked experience to
get us through the six and seven
innings. There are a lot of good
ball players on this young team."
In summing up the season,
Fornear feels, "Some games you
win, and some games you wish
were rained out."
In looking forward to next
season Coach Spinelli stated
"We're hoping to recruit several
field players and • one or two
strong pitchers who can help us
next year."

Junk Food

Do these situations sound
familiar to you? Well you're not
alone because many students are
found in them when they get the
late night munchies.
It really isn't a problem to have
a snack now and then, but the
foods that students are choosing
to munch on are basically junk
foods.
These foods are not only fatten
ing (the killers for such a weight
conscious society), but they offer
little or no nutritional value,
along with the fact that they are
very expensive.
Junk foods such as candy bars,
sodas, and sweets contain refined
sugars that get into the system
fast, but its-effects wear off even
faster. As student Beck)? Link
says, "When I eat a candy bar I
get a burst of energy, but it wears
off really fast and I find myself
tired again."

Sugar is also the chief pro
moter of tooth decay and it may
even contribute to causing
diabetes, though there is some
debate about this (some think
that be ing overweight may be a
more important factor).
A diabetic replies, "I am a junk
food eater and I love sugar, but
it's really bad for me because it
raises the sugar level in my body
and I have to keep my system in
balance." She adds, "I'm suppos
ed to watch my diet, but it's easy
to cheat when everyone else is do

Salt and other forms of sodium
are present in a great many
foods, particularly fast foods,
snack foods, and highly seasoned
restaurant foods - all of which are
the favorites. Too much salt in
the diet may be - one of the risk
factors in heart disease, since it
is associated with high blood

Most students know that the
junk food they are eating con
tains -little -nutritional value and
Many are very weight conscious.
Even Linda Pell, a /vegetarian,
considers herself a junk food
muncher.
When Linda goes on a junk food
binge, she says, "I feel disgusted
with myself, bloated, tired, and
depressed after I eat it." She also
adds, "After eating junk food on
the weekend, I'll fast all week
and eat just vegetables and
fruit." Y
Many students feel the same as
Linda. Becky Link says, "I get
mad at myself when I' binge on
junk food because it's the -last
thing I need to do." Becky gets
upset because she says, "I am
weight conscious and I think the
first thing that people are judged
on is their appearance."
Michelle Becker comments, "I
always feel fat and bloated when
I eat junk food. Half the time, I'm
not even hungry for it, but it's
there so I eat it."
Many students continue to eat
junk food because it -is always
available. Becky says, "It's so
easy to pick up a bag of potato
chips from a vending machine. I
think we're a junk food society."
Rolph had one hit and two RBl's;
Carolyn Campbell also had one
hit and one RBI, and Sandy Rhea,
Pam Mackowski, and Kathy Pat

In closing out their season, the
