NITTANY CUB Compy's duties By Edith Tinsman “Where are all the girls?” “How can so few ever play basketball?” “Is P. E. 1 a girls’ class?” “Are there two P.E.1l sections?” These were but a few of the questions asked by eight bewildered fresh men girls at the beginning of Orientation Week. Now that things are settled and we have resigned ourselves to the fact that there aren’t very many girls, we have resorted to such individual sports as badminton, swimming, and tennis, relying. upon the sophomores for competition, in team sports. . One of the more popular cur rent sports with the gals is bowl ing. This fact is easily in evidence to even the most casual visitor to. Erie Hall, and 1 the cry of “1 broke my fingernail!” is.a common one. A P.E. 13 activity, bowling has also attracted the attention of the frosh, and most of the girls of both classes have joined teams in the leagues. ■Among other gym activities, we can see Janet Warren; -willing to challenge all comers in badmin ton; Doris Miesel, trying to over come her fear of the water; and Jill Fritz, Barbara Wagner, Sara Lewis, and youz - s truly, on the -tennis court, trying to get a good volley. Another popular “sport” among the, freshman girls is pool. Most of thfe fellow’s on_ campus think this new diversion humorous; but the girls are taking it serious ly, even if they can’t find many men willing to play either with or against them. Two frosh girls are becoming rapid whizzes at ping-pong. Ready to meet all challengers are Ruth Angelotti and Janice Maclver. Compy has decided to give the sophomore girls a theory class in bowling "once a week so the girls can approach the alleys more scientifically. Tudy says they might approach the lanes hack wards to get the ball going in the right direction. Question: When will the girls’ lockerroom be completed? Juay and Kathy have doubled lunch hour - and gym class on Thursday to offset the tight schedule. Lea and Sandy have decided to start a wrestling team. They are now - promoting "Little Laz” to take on “Regal Rita”. Evie volunteered to act as ref.
