Gary Stultz ever get that abomin
able chapeau? Some say he swiped
it from Gallagher.
Being a biology major and so
having nothing to do one after
noon, I took a stroll over to the
gym and chanced to walk in dur
ing a cheerleading practice. Man!
What mass confusion! Everybody
was doing something different.
Marilyn DeMarsh was jumping
like a sick kangaroo, Diane Pagan
had one eye on the door in case
.any men showed up, and ... oh
well. Jan Jackson was doing fine,
though, but of course she couldn’t
get off the ground. Ho hum, I
suppose the cheerleaders didn’t
want to be on a higher level than
the basketball team.
Jet (that’s propelled?) Turner
and Boss Caruana certainly chum
around together lately. I think
it will be all over though when she
finds out that Ross’ father really
doesn’t own an Oldsmobile.
Good gravy, I understand we
are having another Homecoming
again this year. I’ll probably be
trampled by those alums. They
were a sad bunch, you know.
Take Butch (old man) Brydon,
who will be back again this year.
There Is a real stout fellow, and
I mean stout. His wife, Pat (ping
pong) Brydon, will probably be
with him to keep an eye on him.
Are you going to bring the new
tax deduction with you, kids?
And Kay Powell claims she is
going to keep all of her unmen
tionables in a safe place while she
is here. How come, Kay?
The big surprise to me is that
“BL” Bemus has finally hooked
some guy. I heard her fiance’s
nickname is Beethoven because
he has trouble seeing. And now
he tells us! Jack (Dorm Hater)
McGraw says he is finally going
to bury the hatchet and speak to
the dorm girls.
Get out the crutches; Bob Mer
cer will be back to huff and puff
his way around Erie Hall in the
alumni-varsity game. Jinx will
probably sub for him from time
to time. Anne Walsh is the only
alum returning who hasn’t lost
her head yet—neither one of
them. Jimmy was such a sweet
boy, too.
And keep an eye on the globe
in the Memorial Room; we under
stand Diz D’Zmura is coming back
to put her farmer’s paradise me
tropolis <" Homer City) on the map.
Lou Laube, the air conditioner’s
daughter, will be back in town. At
least she’s one person who can
keep “her little Joey” from fili
bustering.
Eileen Lardo and Lynn Mon
tague will be back to see if their
male slaves of last year are still
in servitude. Don’t worry, chicks,
men are getting dumber every
year.
Oh, I just remembered I was
supposed to meet Puff up at the
pool. And that reminds me. I won
der if Joe Benacci is going to give
a demonstration of “How to dive
into the pool with your clothes
on” this year? See you. I’ll be dog
paddling along now. Sorry I miss
ed some of you. Aren’t you?
So you thought you had es
caped, eh? Nope, I’m a dog, I am,
and here is what you have been
waiting for:
1. I predict that Diane Pagan
will finally break down and give
Willy Storer a break. Someone has
to.
2. I predict that Joey Haumesser
will finally trade In her beaten
down old nag for a 1855 hobby-
* Club News
By Nat Kobasa
Life on the campus just wouldn’t
be complete without clubs. Since
everyone has different interests,
there are numerous types of clubs
at the Center that should please
almost anyone.
Science Club
The Science Club, sponsored by
Mr. Balmer, assistant professor of
chemistry, and Mr. Shields, in
structor of botany and zoology,
has had the support of many stu
dents. It is an organization of
people interested in the fields of
science. So far this year, some of
the students have visited the fish
hatchery in Corry and have seen
three movies pertaining to oil and
gasoline. In the future, the club
is planning to build a temporary
weather station if this is at all
possible, and is going to concern
itself with phases of astronomy.
One of the biggest programs be
ing launched is a scientific pro
gram dealing with liquid air. From
the looks of things, the Science
Club is headed for a year of in
teresting and educational events.
Chorus
The chorus, sponsored by Mr.
Hover, instructor of language and
music, has been scheduling many
interesting functions for the year.
They are looking forward to sing
ing at homecoming and are plan
ning to have a special Thanks
giving program. At Christmas, the
students and chorus will go to
Wintergreen Gorge Cemetery for
a sacred service at the chapel
there. The chorus will participate
in the service by singing hymns.
On the whole the chorus is well
represented by the girls, but the
interest of a few more boys would
certainly be appreciated.
Gun Club
The Rod and Gun Club has
elected the following as its of
ficers: Robert Kamey, president;
Clem McCluskey, vice president;
Elton Himes, treasurer; and Whit
White, secretary. Not much ac
tivity has been carried on as yet
due to the loss of their rifle range.
It has been found, however, that
the club is looking for a new in
door range to rent once a week.
The constitution of the club,
drawn by the members, empha
sizes the necessity of good sports
manship, accuracy, and proper
care of arms. With the help of
Mr. Patterson, who is the club’s
faculty advisor, they will succeed
in what they plan to do.
Bridge Club
The Bridge Club, one of the
newest at the Center, is sponsored
by Mr. Baker, instructor of math
and physics. This club, with its
many interested members hopes
to have tournaments with the
Bridge Club in Erie, and with
other schools in the near future.
Prom all the reports that mem
bers give on the Wednesdays after
the Bridge Club sessions, they
must really enjoy the Tuesday
evening get-to-gethers.

THE NITTANY CUB
Off and On the Campus
By Jan Jackson
Your reporter would like to take
this opportunity to award some
orchids to:
Joyce Gouger, May Schoch, Jim
Lay, Barb Kovacs, Bob Heater, and
Mr. Hover,'instructor of language
and music, who took on the task
of decorating Erie Hall for the
Halloween dance. Their efforts
were greatly appreciated.
To our kitchen staff who pro
vided hearty and wholesome meals
for the visiting student council
members from other Penn State
Centers.
To Mr. Milton Simon, boys’
phys. ed. instructor, for a well
planned and so far, very success
ful, athletic program.
To our basketball team, that
is working so hard to make a good
showing on the courts.
Sidelights: Model airplane build
ing is the hobby .of .Howard Van
Ord . . . Sally Stauffer, Jody Bor
kowski, and Elton Himes are the
new owners of the Behrend Center
canine orphans, who were found
in the woods along the nature
trail . . . Ardelle Johnson and
Venice Ceccacci felt sorry for the
left over pumpkins from the Hal
loween dance, so they gathered up
the grinning orange faces and
placed them in strategic places
around the campus for everyone
to enjoy on Monday . . . Jerry
Waterhouse and Frank Cowles re
ported that the dance was a great
success in their opinions.
.. . Did you notice Dennis Polatas’
new look? . . . Jet Turner is now
pinned to a Phi Kappa boy from
State.
Have you seen Bob Yeager’s
health chart as prepared by Doc
tors Ray Metz and Bob Detisch?
Don’t .fail to read this startling
and fascinating article.
People are talking about: the
Behrend players’ forthcoming fall
production; . . . Jack Rimp and
his date, Lil Egnot, dancing at
the Halloween celebration; Mr,
and Mrs. Kochel jitterbugging
along with the best of the stu
dents—Which we are inclined to
think is one of the most progres
sive steps toward faculty-student
relations set forth this year.

The administration would like
to announce that the 419 acres of
Behrend Center have been posted
for “no hunting.” This restriction
has been placed because of the
danger to the many students who
like to explore the Gorge and sur
rounding territory.
Our new custodian is Edward
Petrusch of Erie. Before coming
to Behrend, he was employed at
the General Electric. A friendly
and helpful person, Mr. Petrusch
is always willing to aid those who
need help. A hearty welcome is
extended to Mrs. Anna Zimmer,
our new cook.
The last straw: Winter is here,
and Mr. Hover is a South Caro
linian. These two facts are not un
related. Any extra .blankets, over
coats, sweaters, etc., will be ap
preciated.
OFFICE CHATTER
By Jody Borkowski
The office staff is now complete
as Mrs. Joanne Lepkowski return
ed from a short convalescence.
Very happy to have you back,
Joanne.
Mrs. Barbara Dopierala’s little
little four year old son, Billy, cer
tainly is serious about Santa
Claus. He had much fun collect
ing pine cones from the pine trees
on the campus for his Christmas
tree.
Miss Pat McClaran has returned
from a homecoming weekend at
Witteruburg College in Springfield,
Ohio, where she is a member of
the Chi chapter of the Alpha Del
ta Pi Sorority. She tells us she
had a wonderful time attending a
football game, dance and barbe
cue. While in Springfield she
stayed with her brother and sister
in-law, Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Mc-
Claran.
Mrs. Adam will not be present
to welcome the' alumni for Beh
rend Center Homecoming but she
wishes them an enjoyable week
end.
Mr. Shields, instructor of bo
tany and zoology, was surprised
when he stepped out his front door
and saw a ring-neck pheasant.
According to all reports, the phea
sant made a good meal.

The Return Of
The Natives
Homecoming time is here again,
and that means the sight of many
familiar faces. Gee, what a
thought! As a sophomore, I can
give, you the inside scoop on some
of the alumni. Well, anyway about
last year’s class.
Our big celebrity, Janie Bastow,
will be here. Janie had her pic
ture on the cover of the Times
Graphic, for the Mardi Gras last
year. Sounds good, tout doesn’t
mean a thing. Joe Benacci and
his numerous cars, one for every
day of the week, will probably
come pealing up the driveway,
just in time for the banquet. Yep,
where there’s food, there’s Joe.
The youngest of the class of
course, will be cavorting all over
the dance floor, oblivious to all.
That’s Harlean Benec. Brooksie
and Brent plus their horn-rimmed
glasses, will as usual be ogling
all the women students. “Joe Col
lege” Driscoll, complete with pork
pie hat and pipe, will take his
stand in the cafeteria with his
usual cup of coffee.
The double trouble Edelmans,
talking as usual, are trying to ex
plain away the double vision in
most of the students. And of
course, what Homecoming would
be complete without that exotic
beauty from south of the (border,
Nancy Elms. Quiet, Smokey. Down,
boy, down. Watch out, girls, here
comes tall, dark, and ecchh. Oh, I
mean Hugh Francis, of course.
That gay philosopher, Jake Gehr
lein, will, of course, be the cynic
of the crowd. The traitor, Don
Kazmaier, creeps back to his alma
mater, with a shamed face. Ima
gine, deserting Behrend for Gan
non. The idea! ! !
The “Four Aces” are scheduled
for entertainment. Oh, I don’t
mean the singing group, I mean
Lardo, Marcello, Lumtoard, and
Kuneman. Renee, the shy one,
Mattison, will undoubtedly bat her
eyelashes at the more handsome
men about campus. Maybe not,
she may be changed. Lynn “Irma”
Montague has her typewriter well
oiled for her new secretarial job.
You have to toe smart to be dumb,
I always say. That loyal alumna
of Lawrence Park, Barb Orchard,
will sport her fall finery for a
certain Behrend basket-ball play
er. I wonder? Our “Bohemian”
novelist, Dottie Parks, hasn’t had
a book published for quite a spell.
Wonder why? Do you feel su
pressed, Dottie? And the ever pop
ular Kay Powell, (the over the
line kid) is in rare form with her
up and down scale laugh. This is
a laugh? And last, but certainly
not the least, is our own Annie
“the cat” Walsh. Now don’t get
me wrong, but Annie’s favorite
expression last year was—“ We’re
through, go upstairs and pick out
your ring.
So, all’s well that ends well, I
hope. And editors, please, no by
line!
