Game of the Week
by Don Hossler
Last week’s intramural
softball “game of the week” was
on Monday, April 19 and pitted
the DEE GEES against the DMZ.
The DMZ’s notched their first
win of the season by rapping 20
hits to beat the DEE GEES 25-9.
The DMZ’s started scoring in the
second inning when Ed
Gregorich led off with a double,
and the hits just kept coming as
the DMZ scored 8 runs, in the
second inning. Substitute DMZ
Ron Riberich slammed a double
and triple in two appearances at
the plate to keep the DMZ
rolling, in the late innings. The
DMZ’s fielded well, committing
only 3 errors, while the DEE
GEES accumulated 9 fielding
flaws. The game was highlighted
by an over the fence double by
Rock Shamenek of the DMZ and
two homeruns by DEE GEE Jim
Fiorito. In a post-game
interview, Fiorito said his “loss
of 15 pounds” since the 1970
season is probably the key in his
power hitting. DMZ pitcher Don
Hossler was at a loss for words
to explain the homers, other
than, “He (Fiorito) hit the best
pitches I had.”

DMZ ballplayer in the line-up
had at least one hit.
The pitchers for the ballgame
were John Patterson, Faculty,
and Don Hossler, DMZ.
Patterson whiffed 7 DMZ
batters, while Hossler recorded
two. Jeff Seaton slammed a first
inning homerun with two men
on base and the DMZ’s were
never threatened the remainder
of the game.
One of the more thrilling
moments of the ballgame was
the Faculty’s shortstops, Bob
Stanley’s, desperation backhand
stab of a flyball to spoil Jimmy
Kihm’s try for a perfect 4 for 4
day at the plate. Stanley also
had 3 assists, 2 putouts, and 2
errors to cap an active day on
the diamond. Big hitter for the
day was Bill Campbell, playing
for the losers. Campbell went 3
for 4 at the plate, batting in two
runs and scoring two. His
fielding, at second base, left
something to be desired, as he
committed four errors.

There was one time when the
motion picture industry was
afraid to show the harsh realities
of life. But today, the industry
doesn’t give a second thought to
portraying everyday experiences.
The time has come when we,
the audience, see such things as
prostitution, nudity, masochism,
drugs, and profanity openly
displayed in the cinema. Even
ten years ago, a producer would
have been reluctant to present
something like “Boys in the
Band” or “Therese and
Isabella”.
The change of attitudes in the
cinema today can be contributed
to the change in moral
standards. People now are
willing to accept the realities and
not just the romanticized
versions of life. Too often
movies create an abstract
idealistic picture of things
instead of the everyday
problems. At last it can be said
that movies have come down

THE CAPITOLIST
QUESTIONS
Cinema
by Roger L. Hawkins
IK COKCE^r
Who the hell are the
roof-walkers of Meade Heights?
Am I this desperate for an
idea for an article for THE
CAPITOLIST?
Was 951 A Kirtland actually
raided by Mr. Paul on account of
those sculptures?
Does anybody read THE
CAPITOLIST?
Who is buried in Grant’s
Tomb?
Is it true that the water
supply is used as samples for
Geology classes?
Did Dorothy have to go to
the Land of Oz because she was
an unwed mother?
How much is that doggie in
the window?
Did anybody have the
stamina to read all of these
questions?
A Thought
“We live in an age that reads
too much to be wise and thinks
too much to be beautiful.”

Today
from their ivory towers and into
the practicalities.
Movies today are not only
controversial but they try to
present the common man and
his problems on the screen.
Movies are relating to people and
society. Whereas an anti-war
movie such as “Catch 22” would
have been condemned twenty or
thirty years ago, it has become
widely accepted in our present
day society because of the
dissatisfaction with our
government’s presence in
Vietnam.
Such movies are quite
healthy, because we see
ourselves as either foolish, or
courageous enough to stand for
a worthy issue.
At the rate cinema is moving,
at least we won’t be sidetracked.
But movies will continue
presenting the trivials of the day,
because the people have gotten a
taste of the honey, and will no
longer accept just the bread.

EmriRONMENT
by Barbara Emrich
Environmental pollution is a
lot like the weather...everybody
talks about it, but nobody does
anything about it!! Perhaps
that’s the case in much of the
Harrisburg area, but a group of
Penn State Capitol Campus
students spearheaded a drive to
prevent one phase of
environmental pollution through
bottle and glass recycling.
No-deposit, no-return bottles
can be crushed and melted down
to use again in the
manufacturing of glass. The
Capitol Campus students
searched the area and found a
scrap dealer in Marietta who will
buy bottles. He then crushes
them and sells the crushed
material to glass manufacturers
in New Jersey. The next step
was to find a civic organization
to carry out the project. Boy
Scouts Troop 101, sponsored by
St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in
Middletown will handle
collection and delivery of the
bottles to the Marietta dealer.
The Scouts are under the
direction of Mr. Arthur Bennage
and Pastor Gieb.
The Capitol Campus group
would like to see other
civic-minded groups in the
Harrisburg area jump on the
“Bottle Wagon” and start similar
recycling efforts. It’s not a
difficult project, it adds a bit of
money to club treasuries, and
most important...you’re helping
America’s pollution problem!!
