A very unusual intramural event took place at APSU during spring quarter. Sponsored by the Austin Peay Intra- mural Department, and the Ideal Distri- buting Company of Clarksville, the first Stroh's Superstar Competition was held in the University Center bowl. Several rather odd but challenging events made up the program. The con- testants began by cramming a handfuli of gum into their mouths, then blowing a bubble as quickly as possible. Time was the important factor, as the object was to complete all the events as fast as possible. Next, the entrants tried the lost art of twirling a Hoola-Hoop. It seemed that the easiest place to twirl the hoop was around the ankles. Jumping rope followed the Hoola-Hoop event, and those who managed to finish this with- out hanging themseives. moved on to the frisbee event. For each frisbee thrown through a hoop, seconds were deducted from the final elapsed time. The final event proved to be the costliest for several players times. Bouncing a rubber ball on a wooden paddle seems to be an easy enough task, but if it wasn't for the rubber band holding the ball and paddle to- gether there would have been another event, gathering red rubber balls.
