These are not Jeopardy answers or Western Civilization exam questions. They were questions asked Saturday at the annual KU College Bowtournament in Alderson Auditorium at the Kansas Union.
Where did the Wacky-Wallwalker come from? What is the Latin word for pound? What great structure has a glass pyramid as its entrance?
About 56 students competed in the bowl fielding trivia questions ranging from scientific abbreviations to Supreme Court cases. The winning team, the Apathetics, will represent the University of Kansas in the bowl's regional competition March 3 and 4 in Warrensburg, Mo. In the final round, two teams remained out of the $14
that had entered. The Apathetics, led by team captain Brent Elliets, squeaked by the Oxymorons, led by James Cline, 125-110.
The bowl has been a tradition at KU for about 12 years, said Kevin Eberman, recreation coordinator for Student Union Activities.
The Apathetics, a four-member team, have won KU's bowl for the last two years and were runners-up in the regional competition last year. The team comprises Ellerts, Hutchinson law student; his wife, Nancy, Creemore, Canada; Brian Leslie, Hutchinson senior; and Matthew Edge, Hutchinson junior.
