P'S* 12 6-ball team struggling nine games down The Caps continued to fall on hard times as they fell to Geneva College this past Monday by a 72-52 score. The Caps managed to stay close in the first half as they left the floor trailing by a mere bucket at 27 - 25. In the second half however, the game slipped away as constant pressure on the boards by Geneva widened the gap and left the Caps behind for good. Bob Cara and Tyrell Ferrell led the Capitol attack with 14 and 13 points respec tively. The team as a whole converted on 10 of 16 attempts from the free throw line for a 60 percent average on the night. The loss puts the Caps in the midst of a 7 Rec/fith tightens rales There have been some com plaints and concerns shown lately due to the usage of the gym and the facilities within. Students have said that out siders or non-students have been using the basketball court, the raquetball courts and the weight room on the second floor. The weekend seem to be the main time period involved in the concerns. Some of these complaints are legitimate, and others are not, so the C.C. Reader talked to Mr. Bud Smitley on the problem. According to Mr. Smitley, the students who work at the multi-purpose building have been somewhat lax in their duties of late. Mr. Smitley has already talked to these workers and promises improvement in HAVE If you’re in the gym on a Monday night, you may The class consists of people who never had a see a group of people in white outfits dominating the martial arts lesson in their life and ones who’ve had mat area.

All ID’s will be checked on incoming persons. Two more things that Smit ley has accomplished is the employing of a guard (patrol man) to work on Saturdays to observe and report on any incidents which may occur. This guard will be on duty for the next two Saturdays to observe and report on any incidents which may occur. This guard will be on duty for the next two Saturdays in an effort to solve any problems with non- students It has also been announced that the faculty at Hershey Medical Center and the PSU Alumni will no longer be able to reserve raquetball courts on this campus. This action should alleviate some of the congestion and confusion concerning the reserving of the raquetball courts.

Bowlers striking hard The Capitol Campus Varsity Bowling team turned back Bloomsburg State College this past Saturday by a 20 - 5 decision led by the excellent bowling of Jeff Hartman. Hart man’s 792 series paced the Pinmens attack. The bowlers now stand at 3 - 3 in league play and now retain sole possession of 3rd place in their league. The team recently went to a national tournament in Wash ington D.C. where they placed 14th among 26 teams entered in the competition. The Pinmen opened the tournament promis ingly, with a 2593 - 2449 total pin victory over Maryland Uni versity. However, they then lost to Glenville State by a 2670 - 2514 margin and then later to P.S.U. Main Campus by a 2771 - 2518 score. Team Captain Mike Knill was the Caps best bowler for the tonrnament with single games of 211 and 210. Knill also had the best tournament aver age for Capitol with a 178.

Main Campus, Slippery Rock State College, and Ship pensburg. A correction has also been made on the record of the Capitol Bowling team. The Drexel match will be played in Philadelphia as part of a double match, whereas earlier they were recently forfeited to Capi tol due to a no-show. The president of the League attrib uted the Drexel no-show to inclement weather, so the match is not considered a for feit. The bowlers will go up against Temple University on Sat. Feb. 10, at Middletown Lanes at 1:00 pm, and then travel to University Park for a rematch against P.S.U. Main Campus. Team records stand as cx. reader
