Sports 'N' Shorts
By Dale Schroeder
During the last few weeks, many incidents have taken place concerning the activities involving campers. Some have been humorous, some serious, and some just fun to talk about. These are some of the happenings.

During an intramural basketball game between 5 North and 5 North II, Dwayne Tieszen, of 5 North II, suffered a minor injury. In the course of play, he went up for a shot, came down, lost his balance, and fell with his right foot wedged under him.
As play stopped, he called attention to his right foot which was already swelling badly. He was immediately taken by some of the players to his counselor, Jim Nichols, and in turn taken to the hospital.
Dwayne spent the night at the hospital and returned the next morning sporting an ankle wrap, a noticeable limp, and last but not least, a cane. The injury had amounted to only a few severed blood vessels and a cracked bone, but it was enough to give the floor something to talk about.

The campers aren't the only ones who are having fun in the form of recreation these days. The Duncan family is actively participating in the late President Kennedy's physical fitness program.
Many times they can be seen on the lawn of Templin Hall enjoying America's national pastime on a small scale. This shows that almost anyone can enjoy baseball, and one doesn't have to play in Yankee Stadium to get the fun out of it.
Credit should be given to Mr. and Mrs. Duncan in that they find time for their own children along with taking care of over 1,000 other "children."
Our advice to Mr. and Mrs. Duncan is to keep up the good work Remember, "today's Duncan may be tomorrow's Mantle."

Along with the organized sports going on during the camp, many "unofficial" activities that give everyone except those involved a good laugh have been invented.
For instance, it is a great challenge to attempt an entry into Templin Hall after 9:30 at night. Steve Reed accepted this challenge bravely one Friday night. When he was late, his roommate, Steve Sirredge, tried to let him in the side door. Unfortunately, they were caught and now can be found joyously sweeping the halls of 5 North early each morning.
The moral of this story is that coming in late at night is a great experience—your friends will look upon you as the one directly responsible for keeping the halls clean.

Jim Nichols, a widely controversial counselor in the eyes of his "family" on 5 North Templin, has been fighting the campers on the floor single-handedly the last two weeks. His partner in crime, Bill Toalson, has been devoting his services to the junior high campers.
Although Jim's job has been rather easy because the boys on 5 North are so cooperative, it is a great experience to watch him try to get both ends of the hall quiet at night. Now that Bill has gallantly returned from his mission of mercy, there will be no more joy in Mudville.
Dave Newbery, instrumental music camper, takes time out for another type of practice. He is shown here warming up for a future intramural tennis match. Dave is one of the 32 boys who advanced to the second round of competition in the tournament.
Bruce Francis goes up for a shot while practicing for a future game.
Keglers Show Well In Weekly Matches
By Karen Haney
Each year as the Midwestern Music and Art Camp begins, the Jay Bowl opens its doors to the campers for a bowling league with special prices.
The fee is $5.00 per each individual wishing to participate. This covers the cost of renting the lane, bowling ball, and shoes over a five week period.
Boys and girls are divided into separate leagues. Each team within the league is comprised of five individuals. This year there are four girls' teams and eight boys' teams.
Meeting every Friday night at 6:30 p.m., each team then bowls three lines against another. At the end of each line the winning team receives a point. At the conclusion of the entire evening's play the team with the highest number of pins between the two in contention receives a point. This makes it possible for a team to accumulate up to four points each evening it bowls.
THE INDIVIDUAL teams are arbitrarily numbered and then bowl each other by a standardized method of matching these numbers. This method is set up so that each team competes against the other an equal number of times.
At the termination of the league at the end of camp, the team which has acquired the highest number of points receives a trophy. Separate awards are made to the boys' and girls' divisions since it is considered unfair competition to pit boys against girls. In the event of a tie double awards are made, unless the two teams can find time before their departure for a play off.
Each league elects a secretary who is in charge of tabulating all the points within that league.
The eight teams within the boys'
league are "The Untouchables," "The High Five," "The King Pins," "The Ball Busters," "The Goofballs," "The Unknowns," "The Psychos," and "The Spastics."
Members of "The High Five" are David Greene, Steve Bennington, Fred Goble, Durley Grace, and Harvey Thompson.
"The King Pins" include Steve Wilmoth, Wayne Erck, Tony Kelly, Robert Burden, and Wayne Northcutte.
Rocky Ray, John Zimmerman,
Andy Simmons, Bert Meisenbach,
and Tom Tschappat constitute "The Goofballs."
"The Ball Busters" are Rod Seeman, Larry Yeager, Jim Aldendifer, Bob Gabaldon and Clark Hall.
Members of "The Unknowns" are Bill O'Meara, Finil Hooper, Fred Hurst, Jim Baxter, and Walter Anderson.
Jack Tracy, Denny Raymond,
Charles Simmons, Ronnie Grattopp,
and Art Auetenrieth comprise "The
Psvchos."
"The Spastics" are Joe Weigand, Tom McCready, Bill Lewis, Hal Boston, and Steve Hedden.
Members of the girls' league are the "Strikettes": Jeannette Skeen, Nancy Jenkins, Barb Russell, Donna Robinson, and Pam Hasting; "Bowlerettes": Kathy Ferris, Jacquie Glaser, Bobbi Wirtz, Lorraine Johnson, and Donna Cobb; "Jayettes": Mary Ellen Butler, Candy Root, Alice Koehler, Sheila Sacks, and Karen Ellerman; and "Keglerettes": Linda Liles, Kathi Kahl, Gayle Gallagher, Cathie Wilke, and Jane Henseigh.
Campers Exchange Volley In Local Recreation Test
Bv Chin Rouse
Tennis rackets and balls came flocking out of the closets for what proved to be a very exciting and thrill-ridden round of play.
Thirty-two of 53 boys advanced into the second round of action as the camp tennis tourney met its first big test of activity during the week of June 28.
A regular match is decided by two of three sets with the winner of each set being the first individual to capture six games. However, a participant must win each set by two games. As a result, some contests extend past the six limit.
Second round action will be completed by Monday, the third round by Saturday, July 18; the quarterfinals by Tuesday, July 21; the semifinals by Thursday, July 23; and the finals on Friday, July 24.
Action is being staged at one of two places. The courts south of Malott Hall and the area west of Allen Field House are the main facilities available for the enduring sport.
Some of the early first round action included Dave Hill over Keith Dougherty (6-2) (6-3), Dan Curry over Benny Richardson (6-1) (6-4), and Pete Hairitas defeated John Fox in one set (6-2).
Eleven boys drew first round byes and in so doing moved into the second round of activity.

Cagers Rip As Contests Get Started
The tournament is set up in what is called a single-elimination bracket. If a team loses once, it is thereby eliminated. There are three rounds to be played.
One of the major tournaments now going on in the boys dorm is the basketball tournament. A great interest has been displayed by the boys so far and it looks as though the tournament will yield a deserving champion.
The first round had been played and completed by June 28, the second round finished by July 5, and the third round is to be played by July 12.
Three of the third round participants, 3 North II, 3 South II, and 5 North I, have also been determined. The remainder of the results will be published at a later date.
At the time this paper went to press, it was known that 2 North I, 4 South, 5 North I, 5 North II, 3 North II, 3 South I, 3 South II, and 3 South III had all survived the first round.
Action Runs Heavy As Campers Ping
First round matches were completed last Sunday, with second round activity scheduled to be staged by this coming Monday. The third round will be finished by Saturday, July 18; the quarterfinals by Tuesday, July 21; the semifinals by Thursday, July 23; and the finals on Friday, the following day.
Tension and anxiety began to mount as the annual boys' ping pong tournament, sponsored by the Midwestern Music and Art Camp, got under way.
Ping Pong Like Tennis
A ping pong match may range from the best four out of seven, to a single contest with the first individual to reach 21 declared as the winner of the game. As in tennis, a player must win each contest by at least two points. This also is true for sets.
Action has run hot and heavy on floors three, five, and seven with individual participants either limbering up in unheralded competition against their floormates or following the tournament trail in head to head battle with their scheduled opponents.
Due to the enormous wake of individual styles, one is able to observe many different variations in play. Every shot from a "sinking liner" to a sparkling power shot has been present thus far through the tournament.
Deadlines Necessary
The remaining entries are responsible for connecting their opponents and completing the match by the desired deadline set forth. If an individual or individuals fail to meet this requirement both are disqualified by virtue of forfeit.
Ping pong results if posted and scores were available as on Sunday 7:30 p.m.
