and MARK SIMENSON
You can see it in ap
prehensive eyes and you can
hear about it in hurried,
muffled whispers. There is
nothing left to believe in.
Nixon's credibility is
exploding at the seams, the
dollar is dying on foreign
markets and Liza has broken
with Desi for Peter. The Bucs
are sputtering, Super Steve is
not so, and Indy has seen
more fire and rain than
James Taylor.
But then, out of the blue,
like Sky King flying off in the
name of motherhood and
Nabisco cookies comes the
Paterno. Let it not be said
that things are not as they
once were, for, like the
rusting Titanic, the Paternos
will always be around.
Frankly, we’re sorry.
But tradition, the need to
fill this space and our
inability to unload the awards
after each term implore that
we present the Spring
Paternos, once again, to
those deserving, to those

ATHLETE OF THE TERM
He almost knocked it into
the woods during the first leg
of qualifying for the U.S.
Open, but two-time Eastern
golf champ Dan O'Neill
carried this Spring Paterno
home. Netter Walker Shivar,
until he lost to teammate Jan
Bortner, was in the running,
as were trackmen Charlie
Maguire and Mike Sands,
baseballer Dennie DeWitt and
lacrosser Karl Hurtzig.
COACH OF THE TERM
A three-way tie here finally
was broken by flipping a coin.

The Paternos
Coif coach Joe Boyle, whose
loam successfully defended
its Eastern crown, was given
heads; Holmes Cathrall,
whose tennis team is favored
to successfully defend its
Eastern crown, was given
tails. But baseball coach
Chuck Medlar won the award
when the coin stood on end.
His team now the favorite to
emerge as District 2’s
representative in the College
World Series, Medlar was
nonplussed by the tie
breaker. “That’s baseball,”
he offered.
MINOR SPORT ATHLETE
OF THE TERM Little big
man Jeff Keller isn’t that
what we called him in a
feature article won this one
almost by default. There
wasn’t exactly a truckload of
minor non-scholarship
sports this term.
WOMAN ATHLETE OF
THE TERM Carol

Spring Paterno here,
presumably because her
name’s easier to pronounce
than Dybalski, but that joke’s
a term late, anyway. Golfer

portantly, won himself a
Spring Paterno over track
man A 1 Jackson, netter
Miguel Maurtua, Hurtzig, and
teammate Steve Correll. Not
surprisingly, Lukevics
threatened to brush back the
entire Collegian sports staff
when presented with his
award. “Get that thing outta
here!" he purportedly
blurted.

Spring Paterno here. The
lacrossers, who were talking
playoff when the season
opened, almost blew the
award by playing well in their
last outing. But their
disappointment still was
greater than pitcher

the mound and assistant

There will be other awarus
so those who did not receive
Spring Paternos, and the
accompanying Nabisco Fig
Newtons, should not feel as
bad as did assistant sports
editor Mark Simenson when
he did not receive one.
1 ‘Sportswriting,’ ’ said
Simenson, "is no joke "
And neither, someone once
joked, are the Paternos. So
with at least one tradition still
thriving, hopefully America
will go on. While other cere
monies are coming and going,
no doubt the Paternos will
stay. Presumably, because
nobody will take them awav.

on Walker's bunt single, and
Stargell gave the Pirates a 6-0
lead in the fifth when he
tagged Morton for a solo
home run to dead center.
Walker, who pitched seven
full innings before tiring,
allowed five hits and
surrendered the first Atlanta
run in the sixth on Ralph
Garr's triple and a single by
Darrell Evans.
