fa-I 3 World Series time brings a rise HI THERE SPORTS FANS The newest star in the sports world is Denny McClain of the Detroit Tigers. fHe's the organ player who pitched well enough in his spare time to win thirty-one games for the world champs., Could his success possibly mean that in the future our athletes will be required to take up a musical instrument in hopes of becoming better ballplayers? Women invaded male sanctuaries in 1968. Women have always carried torches but, for the first time, a woman carried the torch in the Olympics. A woman also played in a pro men's basketball game for the first time. QShe also received approval for a jockey's licensej. An infamous first for women was garnered by Ruth Eisemann Schier when she made the F.B.I.'s top ten. The 1968 running of the Kentucky Derby was a historical one. Dancer's Image, the first horse across the finish line, was disqualified when a post-race urinalysis revealed that the horse had run the race under the influence of a stimulant.

The television viewer's biggest outcry of 1968 came on November 17, when NBC cut off the New York Jets 7 Oakland Raider football game to show special presentation of the children's classic, Heidi.

Since then, disgruntled football fans at lVl-DJCN have done their part and have started a drive to remove Heidi from the required reading list. Cedric gullops to a ten-turtle-length victory.

- ' ' 7. A,,' E I y gg.. s N. ,I OE COLLEGE To hear a college student talk about cutting classes seems rather peculiar to us. Take, for example, Joe College - working man. Joe spends the few months compatible with human living vigorously laboring for what just may be the lousiest wages in North America. He scrimps and saves, works daytime, nighttime, and overtime, and sweats and stinks when he could be swimming and loving. Finally, after all this effort, he enrolls in college, registers, gets all set up, and proceeds to turn his back on the whole deal. Joe College becomes a member of the College Mutual Admiration Society. Composed of the more erratic, colorful, and popular members of the stu dent body, C.lVl.A.S. prides itself in cutting classes, and members strive to out-do each other. C.M.A.S., like all societies, ranks its members. Leaders reveal a remarkable tendency to physically decompose in the :1.i--- I ---,Q I WORKING MAN Student Center. The rank and file who subscribe to the society's values achieve incredible absence re- cords. Irrepressibly last are the fringe members, a more practical segment which actually fails to main- tain top standards, but realizing the advantages of being classed with the Society, pay considerable lip service to its ideals. One thing they are certainly successful in is getting farther and farther away from common sense. Are all Society', members in the wrong courses? Aren't the girls in their classes up to standard? Do the profs have jungle mouth? Or could it be that the College Mutual Admiration Society is just a carryover from a high school. subculture where the idea is to lack interest in everything especially in the academic side of life?
