Last year, Greene was fifth in
the nation in -total offense, miss

had held the leadership for the
latter half of the season, but bad

Barber Doubts

"Well, well, I didn't expect to see you this week," Joe,
the barber. said as I walked into his establishment yesterday
afternoon, "After last week, I didn't think you would ever
show up again."
"I probably wouldn't have (shown) if I didn't have ROTC
tomorrow," I replied, sliding into
! my favorite chair at the far end
of the room.
"So that's the reason. eh," the
barber said. "Man, I knew you
were too much of a coward to
come around on your own accord
Especially after that West Vir
ginia game. Man, those guys can't
seem to do anything right"
"Oh. Let's not start that
moaning again. Everytime I
come here you star! complain
ing."
"Yeah, man," Joe interrupt
ed, "but everytime you come
here it's after one of those
lousy predictions."
I "All right, you can ride me all
'you want, but I still say that
Penn State has a good football
team. They played their best
game of the year at West Vir
ginia except 'for the fumbles."
"Yeah, man," Joe said, apply
ing the scissors to the left side
of my head, "but those fumbles
meant a lot. I know, for I saw
the movies at noontime at the
Quarterback Club meeting."
"You went to the Quarter
back Club meeting? I thought
that was only for boosters."
"Well, I ... ah . .. I was in
vited by a friend who belongs.
He went to college at Okla
homa where they have good
football teams but somehow he
still 'sticks up for Penn State."
"At least there is somebody else
besides me," I said.
"Aw, youse guys are all cracked.
West Virginia played just as good
a game as Penn State. And if it
hadn't been for those intercep
tions, they would have won eas
ily"
"Sure, Joe, si.re," I said very
sarcastically, "but those intercep
tions didn't hurt as much as the
fumbles. Those fumbles were our
own mistakes—and they stopped

several drives which would have
probably ended in touchdowns.
But it was our pass defense which
,topped West Virginia, NOT their
mistakes."
"Man, you're always exagger
ating," Joe said, brushing the
hair off my forehead into my
mouth. "They fumbled too, in
cluding the first time they had
the ball. Don't you think that
hurt them? Man, you know as
much about football as Beano
Cook. Why don't you and he
start your own newspaper? You
could call it the Daily Blow-
Hard—or the Idiot Gazette."
"Ok, Joe, don't get carried
away. Everytime you cut my hair
you get excited. Do I have to re
mind you about your heart?
Someday you're going to get ex
cited and die of a heart attack."
"Well, man," the discourteous
barber said, "at least then I
wouldn't have to put up with
your stupid excuses and crazy
predictions."
"Let's not get nasty, Joe. But
getting back to the subject, I
still think Penn State will win
its last two games."
"Man, I was wondering when
you were going to say that. Re

I win two of the last three games.
Now they'll have to win two of
two."
"Well, they'll do it if they don't
make any more drastic mistakes
like seven fumbles in one
game."
"Joker, you sound just like my
competitor down the street—Dick

says the same thing, Both of you
need your heads examined."
