NITTANY NARRATOR
Shooting 81-percent from the
foul line and 50-percent from the
floor, the Cubs pulled out their
first win of the season. Obviously
playing their best game they de
feated Bryant-Stratton of Buf
falo, Saturday, January 18,
88-82.
The score is a little mislead
ing because the Cubs had a 42-41
half-time lead and built it up 17
points in the final minutes by
Playing ball control. The Tigers
had the opportunity to cut the
lead.
Highest scorer was the Tigers
Jim Martin with 36 points,
highest individual score for
Bryant-Stratton this season. How
ever, it was also the first time
Behrend had four players in the
double figures: John Cardamone
(14) : Bill Sanko (20) ; Bob Cook
(10) ; and high man for the
Cubs, Lou Hoffman (27).
Fortunately for the team's
morale they finally met a team
of equal caliber, both physically
and in a similar school situation.
Bryant-Stratton is a two-year
business school and like Behrend
doesn't offer atheletic scholar
ships.
Like all organizations on cam
pus, the Cubs have some new
faces. Joe Holmwood, a sopho
more, who played varsity basket
ball at East, brings some much
needed past experience. Also.
Vince Eppolito, a freshman, was
a member of Strong Vincent's
track team, and brings some
speed to the team.

Bob Schneider
Coach Sweeting was rightly
proud of such "a good team ef
fort" and said it was an indica
tion that the team "is beginning
to jell." Also, the Coach pointed
out the lack of enthusiastic sup
porters at even our home games.
"If we were to pack 200 specta
tors in Erie Hall tonight to see
the Altoona game, it would as
sure us of another win."
ect. first for Behrend Campus. is
the future publication of a fac
ulty-student directory. This should
be out around the first week of
February. according to Dave Man
ning.
Also, there are plans for a cloth
ing drive to benefit under-priv
fledged people in the USA, and the
club is in the process of obtaining
a flag pole for the campus. These,
plus other smaller projects, keep
members busy throughout the
year.
Dave Manning strongly urges

UNCLE SAM
AND YOUR MONEY
Students who had jobs during
the summer vacation or part-time
jobs should be reminded of the
special provision in the tax law
which allows a parent, under cer
tain circumstances, to claim a son
or daughter as a dependent even
though the student has income of
more than $6OO and files his own
income tax return.
The student, if he is 19 or over,
must be engaged in full-time
study at a recognized educational
institution for at least 5 months of
the taxable year. Attendance at
night school while holding a day
time job does not qualify; this is
considered as part-time atten
dance.
Even if a student is listed as a
dependent on his parent's return,
he may claim his own exemption
on his return. If income tax was
withheld from the wages, a return
should also be filed to have the
tax refunded.
Answers to any questions re
garding individual cases may be
obtained by phoning or visiting
any local Internal Revenue Serv
ice office.
LIFE ON MARS?
Judy Benson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George H. Benson of
Erie, who spent two years at Behrend and then graduated from Penn
State last June with a major in Zoology, writes to Dr. Elizabeth
Smith, that she is now working in Washington, D.C., as a research
assistant for Resources Research, Inc. She is working on a project for
developing an instrument to detect life on Mars. The instrument will
look for microscopic animals or plants in the soil after radioactive
carbon has been introduced by missile. She is now working on various
soil types found on our earth.
