Hop A Bike
To Florida
Tired of the mush and slush of
an Erie winter? Just plain tired?
Then boost your energy and your
outlook by joining the Health
Advisory Board's 500-mile Bike
Club. If you can do the miles on
the stationary bikes in Erie Hall,
you can pedal your imagination
to the sunny shores of Florida or
go to Carolina in your mind.
It's easy to start biking your
way to aerobic success. Simply
sign your name and the number
of miles you ride each day on the
Bike Club poster in the weight
room. And away you go.
Once you get started, you'll
find that riding the stationary
bikes is one of the easiest and
simplest forms of, aerobic
exercise available. But when
you're riding, don't forget to
monitor your target pulse range
and maintain that rate for 20

minutes.
To determine your target pulse
range, the formula is: 220- Age
x 75 percent. For example, if
you're 20 years old, subtract 20
from 220 and multiply by 75
percent. You'll find that your
target pulse is 150 beats per
minute, plus or minus 10
percent.
Once you're - an experienced
stationary biker, you'll know just
how fast you have to pedal to
reach and maintain your target
pulse. Note: As always, if you
have a health problem, check
with your health care provider
before beginning any new
exercise program.

Building Lifelong Involvement in Penn State - Behrend
The Collegian _

Cale:adai:::
Administrators at Louisiana
College have halted. sales of a
fundraising calendar featuring
campus students in bathing suits,
fearing it was giving the Baptist
school a "playboy" image.
Aimed at raising money for
the college's chorus, the "Men of
Louisiana College" calendar,
which „even campus President
Robert L. Lynn characterized as
"about as scintillating as a Sears
catalog," was tame enough that
the local Alexandria Daily Town
Talk published a photo from it.
However the photo, which
was of a male student in a hot
tub with two female classmates,
generated complaints.
"I thought it was in very poor
taste for a Christian college," said
Rev. Charles Hutzler, pastor of
the Alpine Baptist Church. "I
was outraged. It makes us look
like we're liberal or something."
Lynn decided to halt sales of
the calendar after others advised
him it could give the 800-student
college, which is supported by
the Lousiana Baptist Convention,
a playboy image.
Such images can be
troublesome at schools funded by
the Southern Baptist Convention.
After Playboy magazine
determined that Mercer
University, a Baptist campus,
was among the top "party
schools" in the nation in 1987,

members.
Calendars have caused troubles
at other campuses, but usually
for different reasons.
Penn State University , for
example, banned a "Women of
Lion Country" calendar from its
bookstore after students objected
it was offensive to women.
Calendars featuring photos of
nude of semi-nude classmates
provoked angry protests at the
universities of Illinois and Texas-
Austin, respectively, during the
1987-88 school year, but they
stayed on sale.
More recently, Ohio State
officials yanked a similarly racy
"Men of the Scarlet and Gray"
from its campus stores because it
used OSU's logos, emblems and
trademarks without permission.
Only 23 Louisiana College
calendars were sold when Lynn
banned them, but students seemed
to agree with their president's
view of its modesty.
Kandy Key, one of the women
in the hot tub picture, said her
mother and members of her
church teased her about the
photo, "but basically they didn't
see anything wrong with it."
