Pool, Pinball Craze Strikes School, Leads To Bad Habits Like it has to so many schools countrywide, the pool plnbal! craze has struck Mercer with reckless abandon. Students from even the far- thest reaches of the campus are finding or have found the pleasure and enjoyment exper- ienced tn playing a machine. Whether it's a round of eight-ball on the billiards table, a test of one's skill at an electronic machine, or a dependence on luck with the silver ball, this infatuation has hit Mercer, reaching its peak during Spring quarter. From ten a,m7 till eleven p.m,, (twelve on weekends), the Rec Room is never without someone, the most popular and populated times being Chapel Break and after the evening meal. Furthermore, ping pong and foosball can be played upstairs, available upon request. Perhaps the most popular of all the games is Space Invaders, an electronic game which pits you and your gunners against walls and walls ot little objects which are supposedly invaders from outer space. This game is popular be- cause, as opposed to pinball which relies a great deal on luck. Space Invaders requires quick hand-eye coordination. One without this will soon become frustrated, abandoning the ma- chine with a swift blow to ns gut. Also, it one is so fortunate as to score more points than the previous leading scorer, he can actually spell out a message on the machine which will re- main until someone beats that score. Cosmic Guerilla and Asteroids are also popu- lar electronic games. Fun as these games are, there is one problem. Cases of addiction have been reported, and letters home to Mom, need money for books are normal. A likely story.
