FEATURES
Teams Now Forming
For Spring Intramurals
1
n the last issue of The Capital
Times the "Speak Out" question
was "What do you feel are the key
issues on campus?" Gino Pasi, an
American Studies student, said he felt
there was a "lack of community." I have
an idea to help build a bit of community in
campus: form an intramural sports team.
PSH offers a couple intramural sports
this spring. I challenge you to gather a
group of friends or even someone you do
not know—make a new friend—to pro
duce an intramural sports team.
Get your team started by heading over
to Room 122 of the CUB. and picking up
an official entry form. The team captain or
a team representative must attend a cap
tain's meeting. Do not forget to pick up a
game schedule. Check the bulletin board
in the CUB. for any possible game
changes and to fmd out your team's statis
tics. Questions or concerns should be
directed to Bud Smitley at 948-6267 or
Marilyn Demey at 948-6266.
The following is a list of intramural
sports now forming, along with some
important dates.

on Our Rill
No sooner had he become the longest- north to the Altoona area. Bud Schuster's
serving Pennsylvania member of work for his constituents will be truly
Congress, with a majority of the missed.
Pennsylvania dele-
gation in his own
Republican Party,
Congressman Bud
Shuster has
announced his retire
ment at the end of
January 2001.
Shuster and his wife,
Patty, are struggling
with various health
difficulties.
Shuster 's stun
ning upset in his first
campaign sent him to
Congress 28 years
ago. Nine times he
was elected with
both Republican and
Democratic nomina
tions. Shuster said
his resignation
allows for a special
election to choose a
successor to com
plete his term.
Shuster's huge
9th Congressional
district stretches from
Altoona to near State College, south of the named Shuster - Bill - the son of the retir-
Maryland line in Franklin County and ing Congressman. Hint, hint—nepotism at
west again to Bedford before swinging its best.

The scramble to

Business orient-

Rep. Jeff Coy of
Franklin County
would be considered
a front-runner if he
seeks the "D" nomi-
nation, and national
Democrats would
pour money into a
chance to take a seat
away from the nar
row majority in a

majority will control
the reapportionment.

Republicans will be
considering the seat;
