WEIGHT LIFTING NWMSU found that lifting weights was not only for dumbbells when it hosted the National Collegiate Power Lifting Championships and the Mr. Collegiate U.S.A. competition last spring. The event brought over 150 musclemen from across the nation to the campus for three days of bench pressing, squatting, and deadlifting — the lifts involved in power-lifting. Onlooker felt a special thrill when Robert Ingram of Eastern Michigan University set a world record as his 148-pound frame bench pressed weights of up to 350 pounds. The highlight of the weekend for many students was the Mr. Collegiate U.S.A. physique competition, held in Horace Mann Auditorium. The bumps and lumps came to the surface before the dazed audience, as entrants flexed and posed for the judging of their physique. A well-shaped Florida State University student, Richard Baldwin (far right), was picked for his body in the field of eleven by a panel of national judges. BB I 18 Weight Lifting
