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.

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

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-

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.

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.
The tournament was won by
Marshall University, followed
by P.S.U. Main Campus. These

two squads will compete in
sectional play in Cincinatti,
Ohio later this month. Round
ing out the top five teams were
Indiana University of Pa.,
Bloomsburg State, and Glen
ville State.
The womens tournament
featured 14 teams in competi
tion. The top finishers were
P.S.U. 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.
