Four Freshm en Are Third Big
Name in CGA-Sponsored Series

BSC will again welcome a "big
name" to the campus. The efforts of
the CGA have resulted in the engagement of a top vocal and instrumental group, The Four Freshmen.
Th e group will be in Bloomsburg
October 21, 8:00 p.m., at Centenn ial
Gym.
After receiving their first big
break from Stan Kenton, this talented group has amassed fiercely
loyal followings wherever they have
played.
Since 1955, The Four Freshmen
have been firmly established as one
top acts in show business. They
have played at the Palladium, the
Hollywood Bowl, and almost every
major college in the United States.
A performance by The Four
Freshmen is decidedly not limited
to vocalizing. The boys can blow,
strum, or thump seven instruments,
and do it well — a fact that provides their act with unlimited versatility.
Bob Flanigan sings the top voice,
plays trombone, and dou bles on
string bass; Ross Barbour acts as
master of ceremonies, sin gs thi r d
voice, and plays drum and trumpet;
Ken Albers, the bass voice of the
group, plays trumpet and mellophone; and Don Barbour handles
many of the vocal solos and plays
guitar .
For years they have ranked at the
top of surveys conducted by Downbeat, Playboy, and the United Press
International, among others.

New Offices Now
In Old North Hall

This past summer has seen the
change of Bloomsburg State College's Old North Hall from a boys'
dormitory to an office building. The
building was condemned as unfit for
use as a dormitory ; thus the offices
occupy only the newly painted first
floor.
A reception room and secretary's
desk are located just inside the
main entrance to the building. To
the left are the following offices:
Mr . Melville Hopkins, Speech ; Dr.
John Serff , Chairman , Department
of Social Studies; Dr. Ernest Englehardt , Chairman , Department of
Education and Psychology ; Mr.
Robert P. Ulmer, Chairman, Department of Art; Mr. Nelson A.
Miller, Chairman, Department of
Music. Also to the left is the parking violation collection office.
The office of Dr. Cecil C. Seronsy ,
Chairman , Department of Communications , and a conference room
formerly a part of the Dean of
Men's departmen t, are to the right.

Typing Course Is
Offered Students

One of the highlights of the social
calendar at Bloomsburg State College will ta ke place in Centennial
Gymnasium in the form of the AllCollege Reception and Dance. The
affair will be held at 8:30 p.m. until
11:30 p .m. this evening.
This event serves as a social getto-gether for the faculty and students of the college. Students will
have the opportunity to meet the
President of the college and his
assistants. The following have been
invited to participate in the receiving line: Dr. Harvey A . Andruss,
President of the College, and Mrs.
Andruss; Dean of Instruction , Mr.
John Hoch, and his wife ; Dean of
Students, Mr. McCauslin; Miss Ellen K. Lane, Dean of Women ; Mr.
George Stradtman, Dean of Men;
and Gary Reddig, Pre siden t of the
Community Government Association. The co-chairmen of the Social
R ecreati on Committee, Dick MacFarland and Warren Ozmanski,
will conduct students to the head of
the receiving line.
The orchestra for the evening will
consist of a ten piece instrumental
group conducted by Mel Arter from
Northumberland. This group is one
of the most popular dance bands in
this area and has played for several
college affairs, at which they have
been well received. At present, this
band is participating in a contest
sponsored by the American Federation of Musicians to select the top
dance band in the country. They

Pep Committee
Plans Activities

In an effort to make the rousing
cheers of the student body louder
this year, the Pep Committee discussed various plans and ideas
Thursday afternoon at its first
organized meeting. The committee
is directed by co-chairmen Philip
DeBoard and Sandy Moore.
A decision was made to have bus
transportation for student to the
away games. A pep parade has been
included in the scheduled events for
Homecoming Weekend and the
committee plans to contact the different campus organizations to enter floats in this parade.

Our Close-lipped
Council

h^^^^^ L

^r^^^^^^^^ ^^r

As BSC grows, the power of College Council grows with it. Yet with
the increase in enrollment there is a noticeable decrease in interest in
Council actions. It seems almost as if College Council is little more than
another club in the eyes of some students — but this "club" has a yearly budget of nearly $70,000 and has limited authority over 1,750 students.
Why should there be this apathy toward Council actions?
Council recognized the main reason last winter, and the minutes of
February 25, 1960, read, "The question arose as to why the students
aren't informed as to what College Council is doiag. It was stated that
one of the reasons that Council is open to so much criticism is because
the student body doesn't know what is happening." We agree, but what
has been done to improve the situation ? Little or nothing.
Lack of informationhas tended to give students a negative approach
toward Council. One usually hears, "Why did Council do thus and so?"
Rarely is heard, "Why don't we have Council do thus and so?" It is easy
to get information after a motion has been passed, approved, and effective, but students have almost no-knowledge of what IS being considered
at present. When a new ruling restricting a student's activities, e.g., the
. parking policy, goes into effect often indifference turns to rebellion.
If a student is interested enough to seek information about Council,
where can he find it ? He should feel free to corner the nearest Council
member or, if he wants to know where his money is going, he can study
the yearly budget printed in the Maroon and Gold.
However, we cannot entirely dismiss CGA as spotless in the matter.
Council members usually reply that minutes are posted after every
meeting. True. But what do the minutes tell him ?
THE RECORD, 1959-60
In a study of last year's minutes the following facts were discovered.
Seventy-one motions were given with the comment, "Discussion : none."
Discussion was listed for only a half-dozen proposals. Sixty-nine motions were followed by, "Vote: unanimous." Only on four issues were
there more than three who did not vote "aye." This certainly would
lead students to believe that Council is indeed htirmonious !
Much of the discussion is held before the motion is made, but a few
notes of explanation would be helpful to students vho wish to know how
Council operates. In a few infrequent instances, however, there actually
¦Was no discussion. A controversial or doubtful proposal has been railroaded through Council with speed which would amaze a more formal
legislative body. In one instance we can remember, a motion was made
and passed in the bat of an eyelash — $500 had been spent. Some Council
members left the Faculty Lounge wondering exactly what they had
approved. Luckily the motion was worthwhile, and the allocation was
used for all-college evening entertainment .
The most direct contact the student body has with Council is the
open meeting, designed to answer questions, explain actions, and to
see that problems are referred to the proper committee for consideration .
THE BROKEN CHAIN
Students generally leave an open meeting feeling something has been
accomplished. Problems have been brought to light and can reasonably
be expected to be settled. Weeks later,, when no report is forthcoming
from the committee, and the problem remains, it is no wonder that some
suspect a weak link in the chain.
At times the weak link Is more than weak — only half is still Intact.
Committees formed at the opening of the fall semester dwindle until
jus ta few are left to do the work. Recently the comment was mode that
perhaps the Social and Recreation Committee was so large that it would
prove unwieldy. An answer came quickly from a student who had learned
through experience, "I don't think we need to worry. By the end of
the term we'll have only a handful." Is it any wonder with this loss of
members that it takes time for a committee to Investigate? Because
this situation exists the student body often gets long-delayed reports to
its Inquiries.
juacn memoer or uouncn is responsiDie 10 a large segment ui we
College Community, yet members are usually unable to ask for opinions
from their constituents upon any given issue. Council members, other
than officers of CGA, generally have no idea what is on the agenda for
the next meeting. They enter the meeting completely cold, and their
votes are based almost entirely upon personal thought and observation.
A sketchy agenda, posted a day before the meeting, might give a chance
for representatives to talk with some of those they are representing.
This newspaper would be glad to carry information about the plans of
College Council If given the authority. Right now, we run the risk that
a small group of students with the "inside track" on Council information
can easily lobby and push through a measure which might not be beneficial to the Community as a whole.
THE SUMMING UP
Students uninf ormed about considerations of Council can hardl y become enthusiastic about the organiza tion. Students must know If they
are expected to CARE.

The COMMUTERS

Greetings from the brown-baggers and parking policy experts.
By the size and number of our
class assignments, all instr uc tors
had a very restful summer and
think that we did too. They all have
a new approach in teaching which
demands approximately ten hours
of library work per week. The library will have a new theme song if
this continues — like "Getting to
Know You."
Now that customs are over , we'd
like to welcome the freshmen to our
happy community. It' s very "heartening" to see all these bright, eager
faces!
Attention freshmen! For your
benefit we will give a list of common expressions and their interpretation :
1. Brown-baggers — lunch carriers, often borrowing money ; lost
lunch.
2. Commuter — one who arrives
late for class (excused absence);
one who spends night in dorm because (he/she) missed ride home ;
one who gets speeding and parking
tickets; one who has mainly Troubles.
3. Lecture — autobiography of
and by instructor.
4. Prof — the person up front who
lectures.
5. Student — what you 're supposed to be.
6. Notes — what you should take
plenty of.
"Please, Dr. Kendall , Idon't wanna go!"
We 've been thinking ! (We can,
at times.) Would all the rain we've
been having this summer be due to
the rash of drip-dry clothing on the
market ? You know, evaporation ,
convection ?
We had some trouble finding the
office where you pay parking fines.
(Yes, we've gotten a ticket already.) We went'to the place where
we paid last semester and were
greeted with a sign: "Please remove shoes before entering training room."! Now I ask you, who's
been moving things ? Needless to
snv. wp lp ft !

Good luck to the Dean of Women
in her attempted reforms. We'll
bring the laundry in on Monday and
watch Peter Gunn. See you then.
We've noted in passing that (1.)
Marty 's coffee is better, (2. ) The
books have all been changed (business is booming in the Book Store),
and (3.) pinochle games are flourishing. But they haven't become
any speedier at the snack-bar. May
we suggest training for freshmen
one-at-a-time ? Some of us only
have an hour for lunch.
Poem :
Who closed the gate ? (to Navy
Hal!)
It made us very late !
We hand to walk around
And covered lots of ground.
We didn't beat tho boll
So then wo tried to toll
That someone closed the grata
And that's why wo were late!

FASHIONS for FALL
by JUDY WOLF

With the autumn leaves in the
bright array of colors, and the
campu s in a fairly firm routine, the
cry from the freshmen girls, transfers, and maybe even the boys is
"Wh at do I wear to The Reception
this evening?"
The chances are that you girls already have a gown or frock in your
wardrobe that is quite acceptable
with j ust a few necessary accessories. Above we see Rosie and Jane in
Waller Hall Lobby discussing additions to their dresses to make them
appropriate for the dance.
The Sophisticated Look
Jane chose a black chiffon dress
with a taffeta under skirt of the
same color. The bodice is sheer with
a biege underlining with lace. The
skirt is a series of unpressed pleats
that will give a soft flowing appearance as she glides along the ballroom floor. For her accessories she
chose shirred white gloves that
come j ust below the elbows, transparent plastic shoes, pearl earrings,
and a smart onyx and pearl bracelet to show off her trim wrist. She'll
represent one of the sophisticated
looks at the dance tonight.
Little Girl Picture
Rosie, on the other hand , is the
"Little Girl" picture. Her baby blue
cotton dress has a fitted bodice embroidered in white flowers. Her
skirt is also a series of unpressed
pleats, but are made to stand out by
a very stiff lacey petticoat. The
wide belt in matching material is
finished in a ready made bow in the
front to show off her slim waist.
Her pointed shoes are white calf
that have the look of satin. Rosie,
too, chose pearls to compliment her
ensemble. As she prepares to leave
for the -receiving line, she carries a
small brocaded clutch bag, her frilly white wool stole and , finally,
short white gloves.
So whether your dress be dark
and slim as Jane 's or full and ligh t
as Rosie's the right selection of
gloves, j ewelry, shoes, and bag added to a dress already in your collection will make you a date to be
proud of.
Colors for Male Fashions
The new fall colors of the olive,
brown , grey and grape families are
popular for both the campus lads
and lassies. So fellows , don't be
afraid to show off your new suit or
blazer In one of these novel shades.
Jackets In chocks and plaids worn
with a pair of slacks in a matching
color are smart combinations in any
man's closet. Of course, we still
have the basic and always popular
standbys of charcoal, brown , and
greys in their different hues. With
the new synthetic fibres of Orion
Acrylic and Dacron Polyester mixed with wool, the materials become
wrinkle resistent , ligh t weight, long
wearing, and quick-drying — time
savers In everyone's busy college
days. Consider them when choosing
your new suits and slacks.
So with j ust a few hours left, go
pick out your outfits and we'll see
you at the dance tonight.

AD LIB

by MYLES ANDERSON

Ah! Reader you have found me ,
the column with the funky sound.
Ad libing is my nature, so anything
might go but the meat of this column will be centered around the
world of music. I will be discussing
the types of music that have an
intern ational appeal and flavor , including classical, popular, and j azz.
Records and record artists will be
another big item for conversation.
I think you have the picture, so
glance through every once in a
while to check out the sounds.
Johnny Mathis fans will love
Johnny 's Mood ( Columbia), a ballad set which includes "There's No
You," "How High the Moon," "April
in Paris," "I'm in the Mood for
Love," and eight other Mathisstyled messages. It' s all as smooth
as cream cheese and produces a
very satisfying atmosphere.
All you Frank Sinatra advocates
( and who isn 't) probably have
heard that he is on a gentle kick
too , in Nice 'n Easy (Capital). It's
another great Sinatra disc.
Bobby Darin just made another
big step forward by recording his
nightcl ub act at the Copa Cabana
entitl ed, Darin at the Copa (A tco) .
For a guy who said that he wants to
be the biggest thing around by the
time he is twenty-five, he is pointing in the right direction.
Dave Brubeck has done it again
in Bernstein Plays Brubeck Plays
Bernstein (Columbia). Included are
dialogues for j azz combo and orchestra by his brother, Howard Brubeck. With seventy "legit" men in
the back under the direction of
Leonard Bernstein , the Dave Brubeck Quartet plays some of Bernstein 's compositions on the flip side.
It's an album produced with great
genius and has pioneered in cracking the classical and j azz barriers.
On the side, "Dialogues for Jazz
Combo," Dave Brubeck is not his
best, but tenor sax man Paul
Desmond wails some of his finest.
Drummer Joe Morello and bassist,
Eugene Wright .-produce some very
fine solo work. The flip side featuring the quartet alone is excellent
and the Bernstein compositions certainly help toward making it a fine
wax.
That does it for now, so cool your
heels until we Ad Lib again.

Dear Edi to r ,
The social life at BSC has improved greatly over the past years.
As you have probably observed, the
student attendance at dances also
towers over that of last year. The
only problem seems to be the lack
of space.
Everyone is enthused at the
schedule of dances, but there is also
a common complaint. The Husky
Lounge is too small to accommodate the number of students that
attend these dances.
You 've heard about different
schools trying to get 20 to 30 people in a phone booth. Well, we have
them beat. If you don 't believe it,
come to one of the Wednesday
night dances and see.
We realize that there aren't too
many places on campus to hold a
dance, but maybe we could use the
gym j ust to see what would happen.
Some say the acoustics are too bad
to hold a dance in the gym, but
there have been other dances held
there and they seern to have been a
success.
We would not like to see the
Wednesday night dances discontinued , but we would like to dance
without the fear of running into
someone while we're dancing.

FILLERFILOSOPHY . . .
•
Talent is wanting something bad
enough to work for it... The human
mind doesn 't need to be stuffed with
information. It j ust needs to be
open... Knowledge is one thing that
doesn 't become 3ocond-hand when
used... If your troubles are deepseated and of long-standing, try
kneeling... You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know
how soon it will be too late... Positive thinking is the only way to produce positive results...

Dean Ellen K. Lane, speaking for
the Governing Board , released some
minor changes of policy for Waller
Hall women. Sign-out procedure in
the Dean 's1 ' office has been simplified. If a girl has been given car permission by her parents, all that is
necessary in signing out is to place
her name on the car permission slip
for that evening. This slip will be
found on the desk near the checkout sheet. The girls are also asked
to estimate the approximate time
of their return on the file card.
Smoker Contest
The Governing Board, in cooperation with Dean Lane, has decided to promote attractive smokerlounge areas on each of the floors
by conducting a contest. The floor
with the most attractively decorated and neatly kept smoker will be
rewarded with a party. Since the
area is generally used by all students, everyone is urged to take an
interest in this contest.
Miss Lane and the Governing
Boar d , under the leadership of Betty Brooker, hope to promote a happy dormitory which has a sense of
order defined by rules. These rules,
the t>ean pointed out, will be as
flexible as possible while still
achieving dormitory life which allows girls to study, sleep and relax
at their convenience and with consideration for others. Since the
Dean and her staff must account to
parents or to the President of the
college for the whereabouts of girls ,
who, as minors, are under her jurisdiction, she regards sign-out rules
as verv imnortant.
Threatens "Imports "
In reference to the social problem, Dean Lane feels that not
enough girls date because of the
lack of contact with a variety of
men. If student interest is shown, a
series of social events will be scheduled to which men of other colleges
will be invited. These social events
will be under the direction of an
aDDroved dormitorv rnmmittep
Lose No Freshmen
Furthermore, Dean Lane stated ,
"I have been quite impressed with
the maturity and organizational
ability of Bloomsburg women. The
smoothness with which the dormitory opened and conducted its normal functions speaks highly of the
excellent training the upperclassmen have received under the previous Dean of Women, as well as
their ability to handle their own
problems, given a little guidance.
We are happy to report that no
freshman has withdrawn due to
homesickness and incompatibility.
This is an excellent record of efficient work done under the direction
of Nancy Handshaw, the Hospitality Committee, and all other students. "

Freshmen Have Revelations, Plan
Revenge After Signs Disappear
by Mary Lee Mandalo

Eight y Per Cent of
Graduates Teachin g

Frid ay, September 23, was a redletter day for the freshmen of BSC.
Why ? That day marked the end of
Customs. You finally found out that
the girl who sits in front of you in
speech class was hiding a scorch
mark on her blouse with her name
sign. The boy who you thought was
so cute turned out to be bald as a
cue ball when the dink came off.
Signs Now Out of Soup
Naturally, you missed the little
menaces. Just think !No more "Buttons , Frosh" when you're carrying
a stack of books. No more cloeks,
cr ayons, and drawing paper to lug
around. No more speeches to memorize for upper classmen (who do
not know the difference anyway
when you ad lib the whole darn
thing!) No more soda buying, table
cleaning, song singing, and "lounge
parading." No Customs Committee
members to flash their plasticcovered "tin badges" around. No
name sign to dip in your soup as
you sit down to lunch. No "Yes, sir."
T\T/-» "V oo

ry iaiinm

Mr. C. Stuart Edwards, Director
of Admissions and Placement, disclosed that out of the class of 1960,
80 per cent of the 305 graduates are
employed as teachers. Of the remaining 20 per cent, 34 are either in
other employment, in the Armed
Forces, attending graduate school,
or are married and not available
for teaching. It has been the past
experience of the Placement Service that when the class is surveyed
in October, it will be disclosed that
a maj ority of the 27 unaccounted
for have accepted teaching positions.
Elementary and Special Education were the two areas where
teachers were in most demand. Secondary English and math ranked
second.

Pres * Andruss Flies
To California for
Aerospace Seminar

"

Let's face it. Now that the end of
Customs is here — there 's no ANYthing ! There IS one thing that all
red-blooded BSC Freshmen can
look forward to — REVENGE!!!!
But heck, Customs WAS fun while
it lasted, WASN'T IT?
Before we leave you, we'd like to
relate the following TRUE incident:
Upperclassmen to Freshman girl
wearing dink secured in place with
bobby pins: "Hey, don't you know
that's DISlegal?"
Freshman girl to this obviously
intelligent upperclai sman: "No , I
always thought it was ILlegai."

On September 18, President Harvey A. Andruss left for the Willow
Grove Naval Air Station where he
embarked the following day to fly
to San Francisco, California to participate in the Fourth National
Aerospace Education Seminar.
The seminar has been developed

Huskies Win Season Opener, 13-6

BSC 11 Triumphs
Over Red Raiders

Scott sparks-drive to the goal.

Jayvees Bow To
Steve ns' Trade

Opener Played Here

On Saturday, Sept. 17, Coach
Walt Blair displayed the 1960 edition of the Husky grid-squad for the
first time this season as they took
on Scranton U . in a scrimmage on
the Maroon and Gold's home field.
The game was a hard fought contest with some crisp blocking and
bruising tackling being ripped off
by such stand-outs as Bob Warren,
Bob Christin a, Gary Stackhouse,
and a whole host of other local stalwarts. Our ground attack was headed up by veteran Johnny Johnson
and newcomer to the varsity, Ed
Cocco. Dick Rohrer 's passing to
Stan Hugo and Moses Scott kept
the defense loose throughout the
afternoon.
However, Scranton U. scored
twice on our spirited but inexperienced freshmen team, headed by
freshmen backs Gary Sprout, Tony
Lingenfelter, and Skeets English.
Ot herwise, it was an evenly matched contest with some flashy ball
handling shown by the Scranton
eleven on their series of plays off a
reverse and by Bloom's Kenny Robbins and Dick Rohrer, both r u n n ing
the option play effectively.
Bloom showed much promise of
highly exciting pigskin action for
the local f an s t o vi ew this year and
in the future .

The Huskies' J.V.'s traveled to
Lancaster, Pa. last Friday to take
on Stevens Trade in the season's
opener for both teams.
The locals showed a lack of experience which proved to be a big
factor, as missed blocks and poor
timing resulted in a 26 to 13 defeat.
Stevens Trade completely dominated the first three quarters as
they rolled to a 26 to 7 advantage.
Our lone tally came on a fine 12
y ard pass play from Bill Moran to
Tony Lingenfelter. Then in the
fourth quarter, Coach Bashore's
charges, led by veterans Frank
Crenetti and Vince Raupers, began
to formulate into a team to stop the
"Traders" drive by recovering a
fumble on their thirty-five yard
line. Moran's passing and the hard
running of Gary Sprout brought the
ball to the one yard line from where
Ken Dreis bucked it over for the
final six points. The rest of the
game was spent mostly on the defensive.
Freshman ends, Bucky Davala
and George Platukis showed well as
they turned in a number of fine
catches to set up both Huskie touchdowns. Platukis, incidentally, is
playing his first year of organized
football.

with only three minutes left to

put together a Rohrer to Scott
aerial to set up the game winning
touchdown in their 13-6 victory
over Shippensburg State College.
On the fi rst play from scrimmage,
'Dick Rohrer surprised the Red
Raiders and hit end Stan Hugo with
a 20 yd. pass, which Hugo carried
to the 17th before being knocked
out of bounds. The Husky attack
then stalled when Rohrer fumbled
and Shippensburg recovered.
Shippensburg then rocked the
stands when Lewis, speedy Raider
halfback, lugged the pigskin across
the midfield stripe to the Bloom 40.
The Blairmen then dug in and forced Shippensburg to punt.
The Husky gridders were first to
break into the scoring column on a
45 yd. drive sparked by the hard
running of halfbacks Ed Cocco and
John John son , with Johnson fighting his way for the final 7 yds. and
a Huskie score. Bloom moved again
in the waning minutes of the second quarter and were on the Raiders ' 2 yd. line when time ran out

Wow ! I don't want to attend another game; like that on"e last Sat...'
It was just too close for comfort as it had half the fans along with Coach
Blair suffering from nervous frustration. But in true champion fashion
the Huskies pulled this one out and started them on the path , which I:
believe will lead them straight to Hershey.
In most openers, you can usually expect the team to make some mistakes, and I think the biggest we made Sat. was our failure to completely drive Shippensburg right out of tha stadium. Of course, the fact that
we had two touchdowns called back by the "Shippensburg referees"
helped the opposition a little. To the average fan it was sometimes
difficult to tell where the Shippensburg players left off and the referees
began. Oh well, we play at home too.
In viewing the game we were convinced (as if we ever had any
doubt) that we have some of the best players in this league. We saw
Johnny Johnson put on one of the finest displays of broken field running
th at we've seen in some time; we saw Moses Scott pulldown seemingly
impossible passes to catch, and we saw "the Bull" Cocco lugging guys
with him on his every run. Along with this we saw a hungry line that
gave their all on every play. This is definitely a team that's going to get
better as the season wears on.
And talking about the season wearing on, we play Kings this coming
Sat. night. The Huskies need and deserve our support. Let' s give it to
them.
Things To See This Season In Sports
1. The new football j erseys if they ever arrive.
2. A big turn-out for the King 's game. (I hope.)
3. And one of these days, we're going to get a write-up in the Phila.
papers.
Comments Heard After The Game
GARY STACKHOUSE — "I knew we'd win it." (I wish he would let
the fans in on this. I, f or one, was about to have a nervous breakdown.)
MOSES SCOTT — "I was embatraged when my trousers split on the
field ." ( Don't worry Moses, they'll have them sewed up for next week's
game.)
GARY BARNABA ( a 2501b tackle, after the Scranton scrimmage in
which he intercepted a pass) — "I'll have to get low-cuts for the next
game." (No comment.)
Our Picks of the Week
Starting with this issue we will endeavor to give you 10 winners in
the coming weekend games. However, we are not going out on the limb
and predict the scores.
