With the running craze sweeping Amer- ica, WSU has definitely had its share of run- ning nuts pounding the pavement this past year at a number of fun runs and road races held on or near campus, fand the increase in the number of people participating in themq The Third Annual Gold Bar Run, spon- sored by the WSU Army ROTC, attracted the largest crowd of runners, with over 1000 participating. The fun run was a standard 10 kilometers, or 6.2 miles. The winner of the race was Dave Smith, with a time of 35 min- utes, and the first woman across the line was joan McGrath, a WSU student, with a time of 58 minutes and 16 seconds. Teams also entered the race this year, the fastest men's team was the R.F.T.B.'s CRun For The Beeth, and the fastest women's team was the Pi Beta Phils Hill's Angels. 25 men's teams and 9 women's teams participated in the race. A wheelchair racer also participated - Leroy Monson from Spokane, who com- pleted the race in 49 minutes. The race started at the French Administra- tion building, and ended at Martin Stadium. The 6.2 mile race went through downtown Pullman and preceded the Mayfair Parade. 24 At the awards ceremony, a check was pre- sented to the Children's Home Society, and over 120 prizes were given to top finishers. Each runner also received a running chart, certificate, and over S11 worth of coupons donated by local merchants. The Sigma Phi Epsilon Heart Fund Run, Wazzu Wellness Run for the Health of It, Turkey Trot and Frostbite Run were some of the other popular runs held here on campus beginning in October. The ultimate of the fun runs around this area had to be Bloomsday Run held in Spo- kane, which attracted over 28,000 runners this year. This year's crowd made Bloomsday the second largest run ofits kind in the Unit- ed States. That is quite a large growth from the 1,200 runners that ran Bloomsday in 1977, when the fun run was started. Running isn't just restricted to those be- tween the ages of 16-25. It is not unlikely to see kids from 5 years old to grandparents of 90 participating in various fun runs across the country. As long as a person feels good during and after running there is not much that should hold him back. Here at WSU there is rarely a night or day when there is not a runner out pounding the streets arounr campus. During the winter, when it gets darl- early, it is agood precaution to run in groups like some of the sororities and dorms hav done this year. It makes running a little mor interesting when there is someone to cha with, and also less dangerous. Wearin adequate clothing when the temperatur reaches sub-52 degrees, and avoiding iced over streets are two very important factors tu keep in mind in avoiding sickness and injury There are many reasons why running ha become the popular sport it is today. It i fairly easy to do, there is not much skill in volved, and it helps in building mental as we as physical health. Most runners seem t have a long endurance level when it comes t physical ability as well as a higher level o energy when it comes to daily activity. Feel ing better about yourselfis definitely a posi tive aspect of running. Knowing that you ar doing something good for your body, an then seeing improvements in your runnin ability, social life and work all play a larg part in making running such a popular spor

The Gambler by Kenny Rogers For more than eight thousand people, the night of Sept. 10, 1982 was no gam- ble. The deck was stacked in their favor, as the king ofpop country walked on the stage. His style and poise bespoke of an experienced dealer, dazzling the eye and The ambler Deals ouse to be the troubadour of love and heart- ache for all those who had risked the game. The sensitivity and truth of Kenny Rogers, as well as his music, is sweeping the nation. Some have said that his popu- larity has reached the intensity that was afforded the late Elvis Presley. On that September night in Pullman it seemed that no one would have disagreed. With an act polished with show- manship, Kenny Rogers is personable, has sex appeal and is generous, but most of all, he is undeniably real.

From Coward ofthe County to K'Lady, his colloquial style beckoned to those whose hearts had been broken and sorely mended. The K'Gambler dealt only aces as he proved is personable, has sex appeal and is generous, but most of all, he is undeniably realf, Kenny's stop in Pullman will be remem- bered as the night they struck it rich, the night they shared the state with what is fast becoming an American institution.

But, perhaps the most important aspect of Kenny Roger's current success is that it took him twenty years to achieve it. He is, in fact, no overnight sensation. From his humble beginnings in Houston, he was one ofeight children born to an alcoholic father. Rogers was an A student at Houstonls jefferson Davis High School and it was during high school that his musical interest be- gan. His first professional job as a musi- cian was with agroup of four friends who called themselves the Scholars. The group once drove over three hundred miles in a broken down Chevrolet to play forty minutes at an Air Force Base in San Antonio - their pay was thirteen dollars. After one year at the University of Houston, Kenny dropped out to play bass in a modern jazz group called the Bobby Doyle Trio. In 1966, Rogers was sf 1 -- rv-f'r.g'4 fuck., lllillllln i 3' .
