Dorm doings A semi-formal dinner-dance was held last Friday night, April 27, sponsored by the Resident Student Council. The night was a success and a good time was had by most every one. Altanisoffs in Hummels town was the site of the dance. The RSC held a follow-up Wine and Cheese party on Saturday night, April 28. How ever, because of parties scat tered through the dorms, the response was minimal. A picnic was held recently to honor those celebrating April birthdays. The first “Ra diation Open, a tennis tourn ament was held with Steve Zuk and Rich Robbins taking the championship. An informal wine and che ese party was recently held in Greg Holmes’s apartment. The small, drop-in party was a big success. Thanks Greg! Last week’s floor meetings were highlighted by floor pic ture taking sessions. The pho tographer was Greg Holmes. Additional pictures may be ar ranged by contacting Greg. The soccer team’s keggu* had quite a scare attached to it. It’s everybody’s favorite term, and with the increase of impromptu parties, water bat tles, softball games and class absences comes the PSPS Bathtub Race. This will be the eighth year for this event, and tms year’s race will be held on Wednesday, May 30th, at 4:00. For those of you who have yet to experience this race, it consists of teams of eleven people (one is the driver) who propel a slightly modified bath tub. Any organization on cam pus, as well as those from invited institutions, is eligible to submit a team. At stake will be the following prizes: a half keg of beer and a trophy for first place, a quarter-keg of beer for second, and 2 cases of beer for third place. In addition, There's been a lot of talk about drafting lately. It is often said that one should come out of the draft to prevent colds. There’s also mechanical drafting, whereby someone such as an architect creates a design for a building. Speaking of designs, the military has come up with some unique plans for drafting peo ple-especially students. One plan is to set up draft boards, cleverly disguised as keggars. After surreptitiously taking over student centers through out the country, they will post signs at these centers reading “Draft Here.” Students will wander into these camlouflaged army draft boards in their usual style. At the desk as they enter these alleged keggars, students will show their college I.D.’s to a person donning a name tag less, brass-less and rank insig nia-less uniform. This would not reveal the army officials ident ity. Students will take the uniform for a new fad and sign what they believe to be a guest list. At six-o’clock the following morning, students will hear a by debbie morrow Someone leaked that the keg gar would be raided for under age drinking and PSU I.D.’s were carried by most students that night as a precaution. However, the scare aid not last too long and the keggar conti nued untU two a.m.. Second floor Wrisberg rece ntly attended a showing of Love at First Bite at the Har risburg East Mall. Approxim ately 12 girls attended the show. It was an enjoyable night out. Hope to do it again soon. Second floor Wrisberg was also the scene of a party in honor of Kim Benner and Stacy Brubaker. Each of the girls recently won a seat on the Student Government Associa tion. Kim, you really know how to throw a party. Speaking of parties, Janet Sabol turned the magic age of 21 on Friday, Apru 27. A suprise party was neld in her honor on third floor Wrisberg. Several students will be attending the anti-nuclear mar ch in Washington D.C. on May 6. Additional information may be obtained from Fran, Kathy or Linda on second floor Start your bathtubs the winning team will have their name enscribed on a plaque with the previous win ners, which will be kept at the school. There will be a number of improvements in this year’s race. The rules have been al tered to include alumni of the campus. The tub dimensions are more specific and a min imum size is defined. The cou rse has been revived, starting at the dorms as is traditional and ending at People’s Park. Activities immediately fol lowing the race will be the awardment of prizes, and a cookout sponsored by MHBOG: hot dogs, burgers and suds. After we’re all stuffed and incoherent come the Roman Games (use your imagination), geeting drafty It's by jeff drinnan knock at their door. After stag gering to the door, the students will find a sargeant standing in the doorway. He'll hand them a uniform, combat boots and a three year contract they signed the night before and order them to be in formation outside the building in 15 minutes. Another military plan is to trick the enemy into believing that military intelligence is a contradiction in terms. Instead of drafting people who haven’t served in the military, the army will draft veterans. The enemy will think, “My, they are stupid. They forgot they already draft ed those people. Can r t they keep track?.” The enemy may also think the army’s awful dumb to train a veteran with little or no combat training, who has been out for five or ten years, for combat in one-third the time as a fresh recruit. Using these tactics, the Un ited States will deceive the enemy into letting its guard down, thinking there is nothing to worry about. Then, someday the army will tell the vets to go home ana Wrisberg, or from Dr. Bob Coleman in W 153. Second floor Wrisberg is planning a trip to Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pa.. The tentative dates are May 13 and 20. Those interest ed should sign up as soon as possible to arrange transpor tation. The Major Outdoor Spades League is in full swing. The Czar will have more informa tion in the next C.C Reader. The Wrisberg Social Drink ing Club has a full range of activities. For more informa tion check out third floor Wri sberg. With warmer weather and blue skies, summer outdoor activities have begun. Sun worshippers are out every day and kite flying has become a major activity. The tennis and raquetball coarts are overload ed and a few hibachis have been spotted at the lower end of Wrisberg Hall. Any bits of dorm would like printed please see Debbie in 223 Wrisberg Hall or leave in Box 223. and as a finale, PSPE will host a 'band or two from 7:00 to ll:oo &.m.. y the way, rumor has it that last year’s winner, Humping Iron H, has a new design on the board. However, a spokesper son for PSPE claims that tneir organization expects to regain the title, and XGI is planning a new entry. So if you’re inter ested in some clean competition the chance to legally run a couple of stop signs and pos sibly even break the speed limit, get a team together and start planning. If you need an application and a list of rules, contact Brenda Peffley at 944- 7558 or Steve Hvizda. begin training-civilians with no military experience in 12 weeks and launch a sneak attack. Another plan relies on anti cipating the enemy’s use of sound Cartesian Logic. The U.S. has uncovered the enemy’s secret that, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” Military intelligence figures that the enemy ww reason that people the army trained five years ago, now drafted into today’s army, can’t learn any thing new. Therefore, the en emy’s led to believe the U.S. has not made any military advancements in the last five years. This way the U.S. does n’t have to worry about secret agents snooping around looking for brand new U.S. secret wea pons. Besides utilizing their cle ver keggar deception techni ques, the military will keep the well-being of students in mind by drafting them. Military personal reason thatyou get out what you put in. Therefore, if the army puts students in the draft, they get students out of the draft, and therefore prevent colds. lou 8 Corner Eye time So you went on a binge last night-your headache is gone~ but you have bags under your eyeballs like large luggage!
