HERE AT HOME: Senior
Soccer players Rick Nese and
Shon Fleming were named to
the Intercollegiate Soccer
Conference All- Star team for
the second season in a row.
They play in the all-star game
next Wednesday at St Vincent
College in Latrobe, PA. Good
luck guys and make Behrend
proud.
LOST OUT: Once again, St.
Petersburg has been rejected.
For the seventh time, the city
of St. Petersburg, Florida was
denied a major league baseball
team. In a 9-4 vote by National
League owners, the Giants
were forced to stay in San
Francisco. This vote was
representative of the
unwillingness of owners to let
teams move. The last team to
relocate was the Washington
Senators who moved to
Arlington; lexis ana bfefedtafc
the Texas Rangers.'
BIG BOUT: Heavy-weight
boxing champion Evander
Holyfield, takes on challenger
Riddock Bowe in a 12 round
match at the Mirage in Las
Vegas, Nevada. Holyfield is
28-0 and Bowe is 31-0. Watch
for Holyfield to win a decision
and put a blemish on Bowe’s
perfect record.
EARLY BIRD: I know it is
really early, but as of Monday
the leading scorer and rebounder
in the NBA is Phoenix’s
Charles Barkley. Go Chuck!
BEST BET: Last week I did
not do that well with my
picks, but I feel very confident
of this one. Miami will beat
Buffalo on Monday night. It
will not be a blowout like the
game earlier this season in
Buffalo, but mark my words:
Miami will win!
BAD DAY: New York
Giants linebacker, Lawrence
Taylor ruptured his right
achilles tendon Sunday in the
Giant’s victory over the Green
Bay Packers. Taylor, a 12 year
veteran, is the NFL’s career
sack leader and has been in 10
straight pro bowls. He had
wanted to retire after this
season, but this injury will
take five months to
rehabilitate. After years of
rooting against the Giants, I
am sorry to see such a great
career end this way.
Happy Birthday-D!

With the end of the fall
semester only four weeks away,
the intramural program has
burst into high gear.
On Sunday, 130 bowlers
participated at Eastway Lanes,
in men’s and women’s singles,
men's team, and coed divisions.
Greg Berlin won the men's title
with a 583 series. Mark
MacPherson, 570, and Tom
Lytle, 557, finished second and
third respectively. Berlin had
the high game with a 234.
The men's team division had a
peculiar ending. It seems that a
member of the unnamed team of
Berlin, Lytle and Ray Huggins
had the 2-3-5 pins left for his
second shot in the tenth. He
decided to just screw around and
throw a heavy spin. He guttered
the ball, and his team lost by
one pin to the Gangsters of
volleyball, basketball and softball
teams at Behrend. She was
selected to the second team
Keystone Conference softball
team in the spring of 1979.
Dolak also won both the
Scholar/Athlete and Athlete of
the Year awards in 1979.

Love, Jeff Cowan, Scott
DeFoggi, Chad Dworsky, and
Jim Bowen, who averaged 158
per game.
The women's singles champ
was Sue Mazur, with a 424
series. Second and third were
Becky Durkin and Beth Demacio
respectively. The high female
game was by Lori Royer, a 202.
The coed division found the
Von Cousin team of Bob
DiDominieo, Becky Durkin, and
Trish Thibido winning with a
total of 1665 , 23 pins better
than their nearest competitor.
Intramural tennis finally came
to a conclusion in the men's
singles and doubles categories.
In the "A" flight singles,
Karl Van Tassel bested Mike
Chichwak, 6-2, 6-1. "B" flight
had Hal Kauffman cruising past
Sean Tucker, 6-2,6-1 also.
