    STRIKES and SPARES
I s’pose that you’ve all read
“Chenne” by now and are all
shook up over the various and sun
dry slams dished out to “qualified”
fly-by-nighters. Assuming this to
be the case, I can safely say that
you don’t care what statistics ap
pear in this column. Therefore, I
won’t be too particular about what
I put in this record (??). If you
read anything that you don’t
think is particularly accurate or
relevant to bowling, be sure and
Jump all over Bill Scheitzer as he
is responsible for ALL bowling
activities.
New bowling schedules were
posted October 17 in an effort to
make participation in bowling
leagues available to all the stu
dents who were interested in
league competition. As you well
know by now, the new bowling
schedules, provide for two separ
ate leagues: I) the 5:15 and 2) the
7:00 league. The winners of the
two leagues will have a match
game at the end of the schedule -
about mid-December. The winning
ton m of this match will be undis
puted bowling champs of this
glorious concentration of idiots.
This new bowling league setup is
being closely scrutinized by tha,t
powerful group: the bowling com
mittee consisting of Dedad and
company. Their object is to sche
dule the bowling so it will be of
greatest convenience to the ma
jority. I’ve heard one complaint
already: the dorm girls claim that
they don’t have no money much
any more. (This is a scheduling
problem (??). See I?ete Dedad girls.
Incidentally troops, it is-our oblig
ation as participating bowlers to
inform our respective team cap
tains when it is impossible to show
up for league competition. Let’s
face it - anyone that doesn’t is an
outcast from the brotherhood of
man and is transgressing against
the moral obligations instilled in
them by dear old mother. Looking
over the team attendance records,
points out the fact that Mytinger,
McCarthy, Caruana, Schwutzer,
Dedad, Bainbridge, Liebau, Kol
pien, McKenzie, Curll, Loell,
Legencoff, Schoch, Jackson, Hicks,
Harris, Fitzgerald, Chesley, Hill,
Hawkins, Purucker, Greenlee,
Bauer, Thompson, McCallion, Fin
frock, Weed, Smith, Stiver, Peck,
and Taylor are showing 100% at
tendance which is certainly com
mendable and reflects their inter
est in bowilng. The rest of us have
been transgressing against the
moral standards of dear old
mother.
Bight about here I intended to
give you the lastest on the team
standings, but ... it seems that
Alice Darwin and Nancy Hender
shot, secretaries, have run off into
town (goodness knows where)
with the lastest bowling sheets. Of
the remaining records available
here at the fort, it is to be noted
that the following teams are still
undefeated: Falcons, Clowns,
Knights, Beginners, Dormettes,
and The Eagles. However, rather
than have the foregoing rave
about how good they are I suggest
that you check the current team
standings posted (suppossedly) on
the bulletin boards in Erie Hall
and in the barn.
The high individual games roll
ed by Behrend men are: Thurbon
229, Caruana 205, and Liebau 200.
the high (?) women are Hicks 157,
Darwin 150, and Hill with 130. The
high averages are: Thurbon 174,
Caruana 168, Sweitzer 164, Dedad
162, Bainbridge 161, Liebau 161,
and Gormall 161 also. Let’s give
them a little competition troops.
Open bowling takes place Mon
day thru Thursday at 3:10. One of
the following men have charge of
the alleys during open bowling
periods. Be sure and check with
them before attempting to use the
alley. The afore mentioned wheels
are: Loell, Keinath, Beardsly, Ad
ler, and Harris.

Compy's Cuties
One, two, stretch: three, four,
bend’ . . . Dressed in their new
blue shorts and white blouses, the
girls in Mrs. Comstock’s gym
classes are exercising vigorously.
Even the gym monitors, who are
denied the privilege of engaging
in basketball and field hockey, are
not exempt from these calisthen
ics.
All this is a part of Compy’s mas
ter plan to improve the scenery
of Behrend. She has divided her
classes into three groups: under
weights, overweights, and those
who just want to do some “re
arranging.” The girls have weigh
ed in, and “Operations Pounds”
has begun. Mr. Campbell is aid
ing the project by arranging spe
cial diet meals for the dormitory
girls.
Take a good look around the
campus the week after Thanks
giving and you’ll probably notice
that there are just as many un
derweights and overweights as be
fore, but they will be different
girls.
Athletic Tourney
Well Under Way
Although basketball is claiming
most of the attention around the
Center these days, table tennis and
horseshoe tourneys are also keep
ing some of the men students busy
during their out-of-class hours.
Still in the table tennis matches
arranged by Mr. Simon, men’s
physical education director, are
Walt Mitronovas, John Kolpien,
Don Blair, Gene Thomas, Don
Godfrey, Walt Shank, Gerry Plata,
and Paul Fantaske.

THE NITTANY CUB
SPORT
SCOPE
Saturday, Oct. 22, the annual
Alumni basketball game was play
ed. The returning alumni fought a
hard game and came out victori
ous by a score of 27 to 21. The
boys that came for the game were
Joe Schmitt, Tom Vieira, Cliff
Merchant, Jim Seyholdt, Bob
Yeager, Joe Benacci, Bob Brandt,
and Ron Cianco.
Behrend Center’s team is com
posed of Frank Simon, Hugh Mc-
Shane, Mel Melzer, Gene Thomas,
Lee Helmer, Bart Bartlett, Jerry
Buzza, Jim Courtney, Herb Herbst,
and Clark Jamison.
Bob Yeager and Joe Benacci
took scoring honors for the alumni
with Schmitt, Seyboldt, and Gehr
lien having 4 points apiece. Cion
co broke into the scoring with 3
points to his credit.
Frank Simon took the scoring
honors of the day by sinking 3
field goals and 3 fouls for a total
of 9 points. Jamison and Helmer
came through with 4 points apiece
while Courtney sank a field goal
for 2 points.
It was a good game with plenty
of thrillr and much entertainment
for all who attended.
The girls’ basketball game was
played before the boys’ game. This
time Behrend came through with
a victory. With the score tied at
10 to 10 and only a few seconds
left, Judy Young got the ball and
put in the winning two points that
clinched the game for Behrend.
The crowd went wild.
The girls that participated in the
game were: Judy Young, Sue Han
sen, Barbara Bell, Marilyn Pringle,
Laurie Hill, La La Terlizzi, Anne
Fagel, Dot Blazer, Pat Stocker,
Marge Elliot, Donna Cramer,
Nancy Johnston, Fran Nielson,
and Norma Michael.
The touch football league is
down to the play off game between
the Aces and the Stars. The Rams
were eliminated by the Stars last
week, 7 to 0. The Aces defeated
the Stars 12 to 6 a week ago to
get into the play-off game.
Wandering through the rec hall
one day, I noticed Bob Altsman
and Bill Schweitzer playing ping
pong, and I also noticed that Alts
man was steaming mad about
something, so I stopped to watch.
There was Bill, beating Altsman at
his own game. Bill was slamming
everything Bob put over the net,
and everything Bill hit back would
either hit the net and plop over or
hit*an edge and careen madly off
in any direction. All of you ping
pong fiends, beware when Schweit
zer is your opponent. And, Bob
