Things could not have been any
stranger for Mary Ann Leisner (10th

Leisner was blindfolded with a
blanket pulled over her head and tied
off with a rope., Her "friends" then
threw her in the trunk oof a car and
drove off to Rec Hall, where she was

Of course, there was a game in
progress.
She was then led through the men's
locker room at Rec Hall, after which
she was dumped in a laundry cart and
put inside a handball court.
Ah, but the Perils of Mary Ann
continue.
Leisner's journey also took her
through the bowling alley, where the at
tendant asked if she wanted him to call
the police, and back to the trunk of the
car and eventually she was deposited in

the traditional birthday depot the
shower. Blanket and all.
Perhaps the highlight of Leisner's
trip was when she was then taken to the
pool and told by her "friends" that she
was going for a little swim.
"Don't throw me in. I can't swim tied
up," said Leisner, who was spared from
the swim.
Don't feel bad, Mary Ann, very few
people other than Houdini could swim
tied up. And he wasn't all that
successful. •

Certificate releases
team from legalities
Intramural football can be in
timidating. Some people try to make it
even more intimidating.
That's where the captains of the Elk
House (fourth and fifth floors Geary
Hall) I.M. football team come in.
Jeff Kulp (4th-mechanical 'engineer
ing) and Bill Shanker (7th-music educa
tion) are taking no chances as leaders
of the Elk House Nine. They have writ
ten an "Absolution of Death" form for
their opposition
The document "releases Elk House
and all its members from any and all
legal responsibilities for injuries or loss
of life (lives) sustained during football
games."
"We use it to pysch out the other
team," Shanker said. "It started after
we played a game and knocked a few
people around. I guess we got a
reputation."

You never know where a
photographer is going to show up.
Who knows where they'll show up if
there is a meeting of many
shutterbugs?
At least, that was the idea that Eileen
Bogert (10th-plant science) and her
roommate Ellen SanSilippl ( 4th
business) must have received when

they tried to find last week's meeting of
the Camera Club.
The meeting, according to The Daily
Collegian's University Calendar of
Special Events, was supposed to be at
7:30 p.m. in 56 Willard.
"We were kind of wondering what
kind of pictures the Camera Club
takes," Bogert said. "We listened real
close. We were going to knock, but
decided not to."
It's not that Bogert and SanSilippl
shuddered at the thought of joining the
organization, but attending the first
meeting in 56 Willard may have been a
bit embarrassing for the two.. •
You see, 56 Willard is a men's
bathroom. •
In Edition's outcry:
It needs good copy
It's the same old story and you
know it by now: In Edition is in need of
copy good copy. _ _
So when something funny happens to
you, pass it on to In Edition writers An
dy Linker and Brian Gamerman at the
Collegian office, 126 Carnegie, or call
the Collegian at 865-1828 or 865-1820.
Don't forget area code 814 for those
long-distance In Edition stories from
East Halls.

hits sold through televisiOn

But he will always hold a special
place in the heart of the residents of
Jordan
For the second time in less than a
year, the dwellers of Jordan II threw a
party in his honor. A couple , of weeks
ago, Slim Whitman II went off without a
hitch and the plans are already in the
works for a Spring Term Slim Whitman
111, said Steve Kach . (7th
administration of justice).
"We tried to call Slim (to come to the
party) last year," Kach said, "but we
couldn't get ahold of him."
• Maybe the University Concert Com
mittee could find Slim Whitman by Sun
day as a replacement for Carly Simon?
Then again, maybe not. We'll just,
have to wait until spring for Slim Whit
man 111.
Words for Indians:
Ldok before leeping
Editor's Note: The following floated
across into The Daily Collegian's office
earlier this week. Ahd just think, people
thought swimming in the outdoor pool
in October is risky.
NEW DELHI, India (AP) An In
dian game warden has put up signsban
ning swimming in a crocodile-infested
lake in the west-central state of
Maharashtra.
The signs at the Tabola National
Park read, "Swimming is prohibited.
Survivors will be prosecuted."
