    Girls Get a Pep Talk
COMPY’S CUTIES take a much needed breather at half-time in
one of their exciting: basketball games.
Compy s Cuties
Edie Tinsman
Compy really picked an appro
priate time to enlighten her P. E.
12 class in the arts of pushing and
lifting, for that was the same
Monday afternoon that Dean Lane
announced that school was out be
cause* of the drifting conditions.
Many of the Behrend lassies soon
were able to apply their lesson in
leverage to the storm. And boy,
was that snow heavy!
Question of the week: Who was
first out of the door when Dr.
Smith dropped the rat in zoo?
Could it have been the same girl
who, two hours later, used rats for
her visual aids in speech class?
It seems that the freshman girls
must entertain the sophs at a tea
right before' Easter vacation. At
least one frosh would prefer an
analyt test that hour. That’s a
hint, Mr. Pat.
Bemie is forming an anti-kid
napping society. It seems that she
was the unwilling accomplice in a
recent abduction. This society, if
formed, might be in favor of aboli
shing the “Stull Hall Taxi Ser
vice”.
Tudy bowled a terrific 163 game
in one of her gym classes. She also
has the high woman’s game in
league competition this semester—
a 134, which, she boasts, was
higher than anyone had on her
team for that game. Following
closely behind Tudy’s 134 is Edie
with a 129. Those pin boys must
have quite a psychological effect.
Not that Judy is a poor sport, it
seems that there are times when
she doesn’t like to be beaten at
badminton. Could it be the envi
ronment that causes her anxiety?

before climbing into the “suicide
seat” of a car. How does that tree
look?
Some of the girls are fascinated
by Dick J.’s clothes.
Lea is receiving fame for her ab
ility to turn around while stand
ing on her head.
Rita wants to know why all the
big news breaks on her night off-
If you intend to start a fire or
commit patricide, she requests that
you do it on a Saturday mght.
Question: What happened to all
the party dolls? Did they, like the
dinosaurs and the dooey-doo club,
become extinct?
Wanted: decent shuttlecocks.
Due to the condition of the present
ones, all the girls have to play
badminton with two racquets, one
to hit the tip and one to smash
the feather end across.
Sara has resolved never again to
write in her German book.—Does
the same apply to analyt?
Congratulations to the five girls
—Ruth, Kathy, Lea, Bemie, and
Laz recently elected to Student
Council. One thing for sure, there’s
a balanced representation of the
sexes this semester.
Why do the fellows insist that
Behrend is a boys’ school? There
are 16 coeds to prove otherwise.
Due to the embarrassments
which occur almost daily in the
locker-room, it would be appreci
ated if, on Monday, Wednesday,
and Thursday afternoons, between
the hours of 1:20 and 3:10, all the
young men desiring to enter said
room would kindly knock.
While on the subject of the
locker-room, the boys in the 1:20
class on Mondays are reminded
that it is not a powder room, and
it is supposed to be the woman
who takes so long dressing.

STRIKES

SPARES
By Gerry Sedney
The Behrend Bowlers have
struck again! Their latest victim,
the Edinboro State Teachers’
bowling team went down in defeat
twice. In the first match it was
Dick Covatto who was hitting the
pins for the highest of the series.
Not having enough, Edinboro
tried again. This time Bob Pius
calmed them down with his com
petent bowling.
However, our alleys have been
very slow during the last few
weeks. Either studies are piling up
or participants are losing their zest
for the game. With the facilities
available there is no reson for de
cline in the bowling program. Bet
ter participation would provide for
more interesting bowling activities.
Up to date the team standings
are as follows:
1. Ist Year DD.T.
2. E. Tech.
3. 2nd Year DJ>.T

Tumble, Tumble, Little Star
by
Wes Carter
The human body is undoubted
ly one of the most ruggedly build
structures of today. To validate
this statement, all one has to do
is to skip down to the gym on any
week day afternoon. As you ap
proach the door, strange noises
meet the ear. There are crashes,
bangs, and thump-thumps. When
you enter, there before you are
weird little earthlings (called
men.)
These poor creatures are subor
dinating their helpless bodies to
bars, mats, and weights. This, my
dear friends, is the tumbling class
of ole Hank Goodwin. Actually, he
feels as though his boys are the
toughest there are today.
Slowly, day by day, muscle by
muscle, and ache by ache his
theory is proving to be correct. To
day 'the big issue is tumbling.
Prom the big, stout, Gary Raimys
to the short, skinny Walt Parkers,
everyone loves it and all try it.

Anachronism?
Not really. ’Cause if Coke had been
around in Caesar’s day, Caesar would
have treated himself to the sparkling
good taste, the welcome lift of Coke!
Caesar’s motto—“l came, I saw, I
conquered.” Pretty good motto for
Coke too —the prime favorite in over
100 countries today!

For example, I would like to
speak very highly about an indivi
dual we all know and love so dear
ly—Mr. Robert Verbanic. I speak
with such sincere dedication be
cause he has helped to make
Behrend Center athletics what it
is today.
One day our hero was asked to
perform an exercise on the hi-bar
in gym. The exercise is called the
kick, in which you swing, kick, and
raise yourself above the bar. Con
fidentially, he walked to the bar,
smiled at his classmates, and pro
ceeded to do the exercises. Com
pletely ignoring the proper swing
and kick, he began to kick vigor
ously as if being attacked by a
pack of wolves. I might add that
the whole class was prone with
wild laughter.
Things such as this make our
tumbling class more fun than
work. I know I can speak for the
others as well as myself when I
say it is the greatest!
Remember—look after you leap,
it’s more fun that way.
