BOW.
A team named The Apathetics overwhelmingly defeated a team named A Swell Bunch of Guys and Women on Saturday afternoon for the second consecutive year in the annual trivia tournament. The final score was 140-50.
"It's a matter of split seconds between victory and defeat," said Apatheties team member Brian Leslie, Hutchinson senior.
College Bowl is a question-and-answer trivia game designed to test quick recall of random knowledge over a variety of subjects. The game is played in two seven-minute halves, and points are scored by correct answers to questions asked by a moderator.
Two types of questions are used in the game: toss-ups, worth 10 points each, and bonus questions, worth 20 to 30 points each. The moderator for the final match was Robert Bearse, associate vice
chancellor for research, graduate studies and public service.
The double-elimination tournament, sponsored by Student Union Activities, began with a 24-team field at 8 a.m. The teams competed
in five separate locations in the Kansas Union before the last two teams returned to Alderson Auditorium for the final match at 2:30 p.m.
The Apathetics will move on to
the regional tournament on Feb. 24 and 25 at KU. Teams from the University of Nebraska, the University of Oklahoma and the University of Missouri will compete
are Brent Eilers, Hutchinson senior; Matt Edge, Hutchinson sophomore; Richard Morrison, Hutchinson senior and team alternate Frank Partny, Overland Park senior.

Slap stick
KU to have humor magazine Student publishers plan to satirize life's problems in Pinch
by Carrie Harper Kansan staff writer
It is like a tickle. It makes people uncomfortable, but it will make them laugh.
That is how Bess, Frimogil,
Malmo, Sweden, senier, described
Pinch, a new student-run campus
magazine.
Frimodig said the idea started as a serious discussion among friends about life. The founders of Pinch want to open student's eyes to the problems of the world through satirical humor, she said.
"I think we are misreting our world and being very selfish, but these problems seem overwhelming." Frimodig said.
For example, Frimidog wrote an article called "Dumb Women — Smart Choices." about women who do not take responsibility for their own independence. It features a college character with whom students can relate, Frimidog said.
Pinch has a post office box at Strong Hall so students can submit articles or art, said Mark Johnson, editor of the magazine, but so far they have not received much material. They would like the articles to have an academic feeling, but not necessarily about academia.

stuff, or Mark Twain or S.J. Pleerman or Robert Benchley" Johnson said. "But we'll take anything."
Jennson, Roeland Park senior, said he hoped to publish two issues this semester, but it would depend on whether they got Student Senate funding. Their bill, which asks for $832 for two issues, will be presented to Senate on Thursday. Through the week has been postponed because of the men's basketball game against Oklahoma State University.
Pinch will be free to students if Student Senate finances the publication, otherwise there will be a charge. Johnson said. They plan to print 2,000 copies for the first issue, which is ready to be printed when they get the money.
Johnson said he hoped people would share copies so everyone would get a chance to read it.
"I doubt people will be keeping these back and giving them to their grandchildren," Johnson said. "We hope they'll pass them around; we're not going to harass people if we want to keep it in their serabook."
Johnson said Pinch would use University facilities to publish. He said University Press gave them the best
printing bid.
principal G. Clark Gay, off-campus senator, is introducing the Pinch bill to the Senate. He said he expected them to get some financing, but possibly not all of it.
Gay said he thought most student senators would approve the idea because Pinch got about 80 signatures and students at the 89 Activities Carnival.
Chris Delong, art director for Pinch, said about 25 of the 80 people filled out detailed surveys about what they would like to see in Pinch and whether they would help.
DeLong, Wichita senior, said litterate, intelligent people who were looking to laugh would be the ones who would be interested in Pinch.
Because DeLong and Johnson are seniors, they said they hoped the magazine would continue to exist in future years because the University of Kansas needed a humor magazine
Lonn Beaudry, associate professor of design and faculty advisor to Pinch, said he would be disappointed if the magazine did not catch on.
"Hopefully the humor will be pongnant enough to attract people's attention."
