STRIKES and SPARES by Warren Bose Bpy! You can fool some of the peapleupart of the time, but let’s it . . . some of us peasants haven’t been “conned” lately. I7n,referring to the identity of "Chenne”. I’ve been reading that mess for four months now; and if it isn’t a certain eight-ball that I know very, well. I’ll eat this typewriter at Tenth and State an&jgive you ten minutes to draw a cjpwd. I call him an eight-ball instead of a bowling ball as he doesn’t have three holes in his head . only- one. His name, beyond any .shadow of a doubt, is Ronald “Chiefie” Thomas. In fact, I’m so sure that Chief is Chenne-that I propose that we him into.-the pool . . . I’m willing to gamble on being wrong. The;, pool might be frozen over, but -if we drop him off the diving board (head first) a few times we should be able to batter him through the ice into the heated (?) water. . Last ’ Friday night the faculty (big^wheels), bowling, team tan gled;; with the Jays (small frys) bowling team. The outcome of that,match was- the, Jays over the faculty with two wins-plus total pins;* Consequently, the members of thieJays (McLaughlin, Chesley, roil. • Webster, and Schweitzer) can took forward to flunking out of school as a- -result of- this hu miliation. The faculty’s big gun in their; blazing defeat was Mr. Hughes, who bowled-high game of the evening with a . solid 203. There was one young feller rolling for the .-faculty that- • obviously didn’t have his wheaties for breakfast . . I won’t mention any names, but his initials are Mr. Koch el. The standings of the Behrend Center bowling league, after the third vweek;. of howling,. have re solvedjru-the following sequence: The Hawks are out In first place with a 12-4 record; the .

This'is one of the few days Peg escaped being massacred in the process. records of the Crow’s team, as their firm hold on last place in dicates that , we have a sick crow in our midst. Captain Robert Bainbridge is sporting a 148 average which is better than most of us reclaimed tiddlewink players can do- However, the second [member of the team (Connie Taylor) hasn’t shown us her true potential as yet (avg. 64) but if she is as perseverant at bowling as she is at flunking music, then she is bound to improve. On the other hand, Miss Stadler is doing rather well for the team with a 124 average. But who is this bird Mr. Sandrock with a blooming 77 average? Ask your captain how it’s done, -Sandy. Then there is Judy Young, who bowls for everyone; . her average is 110, which is substantial. Mel Fisher with an 81 average is really giv ing it the college try and is bound to improve. Whozzis Elaine “Pep py” Peplinski? I heard that she was the colorful personality on campus. That is understandable when you look at her bowling average, which is 73. She is the best bowler the other teams have on their side. (Only jesting, Ellie.) Sue Hicks rounds out the team and is doing a good job with a consistent 121. Well, Capy Bain bridge, with your great sports background and with this assort ment of bowling fodder to use against the opponents, we expect your team to move out of last place and become a contender ■for the championship. In the high game department. John Kolpien has displaced Bill Schweitzer with a very game of 221. Nice going, John. Randy liietoau finally came through, as predicted, and took over the sec ond spot with a 210 game. Sch weitie nailed down third with 206.
