INDIANA STATE COLLEGE
1960 OAK
This is THE OAK, a tree of many branches. Herein are contained the likeness of a college
generation, their doings carved into the trunk. This is the record of the grafting of many
diverse stalks to make a new strong hybrid. This is a book of growTi,. This is a tabulation
of elements — the rich soil, the climate — an enumeration of processes — the planting, the
pruning, and finally the harvest.
This is a book of portraits. Here are the many roles each of us may perform — the
student at work, the student at play, the child clowning, the man worshiping, the neo-
phyte wide-eyed, the sophisticate dry-eyed. This is a gallery of teachers and would-be
teachers.
This is a book of memories — a record of a class who years from now may see them-
selves in these pages as they once were. This is the book of the class of "sixty" who had
to "go like sixty." This is the remembrance of things past in which the future is rooted.
This is a book of Indiana State about the state of things at Indiana. This is a chronicle
of the best of times. The candid camera has captured us and no one would want to es-
cape. These pages reflect us in our youth. They will bring nostalgia in our maturity.

PRESIDENT PRATT
With this issue of the OAK the name of the College has been changed from Indiana State
Teachers College to Indiana State College. Since its approval as a four year degree-granting
institution in 1927, this marks the first time the name of the College has been changed.
The change in name does not imply any change in scope or purpose of the institution
nor should one infer that the name Teachers College is not a respectable one. The change
in name will grant the College the possibility of more flexibility in its curricular offerings in
the future. Since we cannot tell at the present time the future of the College, this flexibility
will make any necessary changes in our curricula much easier.
Unfortunately, the name Teachers College came to mean to many people an institution of
inferior grade. While this has not been the case, the change of its name to State College
will greatly enhance its attractiveness for students and faculty alike.
In the past two decades all the state teachers colleges have shown marked improvement
in their facilities, in the caliber of the student body, and in the breadth of their curricula.
The Indiana State College faces a bright future indeed.

GRADUATE SCHOOL
The Graduate Studies Division of Education
is now in its third year at I.S.C. Originally lim-
ited to study for the Master of Education de-
gree in Elementary Education, it now includes
courses in English, Geography, Guidance,
Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.
During 1959 Dr. Edward Bieghler introduced
a new feature into the program — summer
school for graduate students at Mexico City
College, Mexico. While earning six semester
hours credit, the student has time to take
scheduled tours to points of interest in the
Mexican villages.

During the past year the library has made several important
advancements. The plans for the new building have been
drawn up and accepted and construction is now underway.
The new building will be triple the size of Wilson Hall and
the total book capacity will be more than double what it is
at present. The library also received and processed an addi-
tional 60,000 volumes.
These extended facilities will enable the library to increase
its service to I.S.C. students.

INDIANA
STATE
COLLEGE
INDIANA, PENNSYLVANIA
Students are attracted to Indiana State College from oil over the state and even from
distant countries. They come as individuals and, while retaining their individuality, become
incorporated into various formal and informal groups. The paradox of college is that the
growth of the individual depends upon this contact with the group. From the reading of a
book in solitude to the sharing of group experiences is a necessary step in gaining the
flexibility needed for growth. The formality required in the classroom and the easy contact
offered outside are really partners in the business of developing the most resilient of pro-
fessionals — the teacher. The reading of a college newspaper on a park bench and the
reading of a science treatise in a quiet library room are not as far opart as they may
seem. The alert student learns from everything. As a prospective teacher he must become
aware of the many ways of life. Because he will teach a cross section of types and per-
sonalities, the student must understand the multiple mores and patterns. By looking at him-
self OS mirrored by his fellow students, the student sharpens his awareness of himself and
of others. He becomes more individual as he learns from the group.

THE LEISURE
Not all is study at I.S.C. A student may take advantage of both casual
and organized activities to fill his week-ends or his week nights. He may
take on afternoon break at the Clark Hall Coffee Shop, or play a quiet game
of cards, or if he's an individualist, he may browse through the Bookstore.
In the evening he may find his way to the Student Union, which with its
Snack Bar and dancing facilities is a meeting place for many. He can get
a good work out on the new tennis courts, or he can team up for intra-
mural games.
The student may also look forward to corsages, dance bands and glamor-
ous gowns at formal dances— the Homecoming Dance, the Pan-Hellenic
Dance, the R.O.T.C. Ball, and the proms.
Some organizations make a more conscious effort to combine entertain-
ment with instruction. The student may develop an interest in department
clubs, church affiliated organizations, Convocation and the Cultural Life
Committees.

THE
DEPARTMENTS
Each student as an individual has his own special field of interest. Indiana offers a range
of six curricula in which the student may concentrate on his specialty — Art, Business, Home
Economics, and Music offer technical training. The Elementary Department is designed to
provide the student with an understandmg of the child as well as familiarity with subject
matter to be taught. The Secondary Department offers seventeen areas of study: scientific,
linguistic, and historical.
For further specialization in his field the student may pursue the graduate program re-
cently installed at Indiana which leads to the degree of Master of Education.

The beauty of Indiana's campus brightens the eyes of stu-
dents and visitors alike. During his stay at Indiana the stu-
dent's pride increases. The campus consists of approximately
sixty-two acres of well-planned and carefully maintained
grounds. The central feature is the Oak Grove on three
sides of which college buildings are grouped. Other unique
features of the campus are Flagstone Theater, an open-air
stage lined by evergreen shrubbery and the Shakespeare
Garden, which has been recently transplanted and expanded.
Strategically distributed shrubs and flower beds border the
lawns and provide masses of color much of the year.

THE CAMPUS
THE PRACTICE
Practice makes perfect. And perfection is the only goal a teacher should
aim for. One must not only know, but know how. Skills must be developed
just as facts must be digested. The mind, the body, the desire, the skill —
all combine to produce competence.
The mastery of the technique, the application of the tool, the familiarity
with the field — these are the objects of practice. Practice is related to practi-
cal in more than spelling. The teacher must build not only the Ivory Tower
but the steps leading to it. He must be craftsman as well as scholar. His
practice helps him build.

THE CONTESTS
Good sportsmanship is a term which must be translated from words to life.
Various athletic contests at Indiana offer students a chance to play together,
compete with each other, and enjoy a change from studies. From the squeal
of excitement as coeds take over the gym Monday evenings for volleyball,
basketball, and badminton to the masculine roar which arises from
fellows taking the football field or trotting onto the basketball court, there
is always a hullabaloo in the gym and in the stadium.
THE GOAL
How odd it is that the end should be the beginning. And for a teacher, graduation
should be only a beginning, because teaching is also learning. Continuous learning goes
with continued teaching. Teaching is a vital way of growth.
A strange mixture of humility and confidence is the graduating teacher. The only
thing sheepish about him should be the diploma. If is his confidence that will make him
sparkle in the classroom, his awareness that he is a trained man for a demanding job.
His humility must be apparent in his realization of the tremendous responsibility before
him and his knowledge that only a lifetime is given him to do a decent job.
His tasselled cap points towards the road. His training gives him fuel. His graduation is
the starter. May he never run down.

The relationship between a college and a town is one of a community within a com-
munity. While functioning as an independent entity, the college community interacts with
the. larger community of which it is a part. The students live in town homes, attend town
churches, help celebrate town holidays and buy town goods and services. Activities of the
college are an addition to the cultural offerings of the community. The school helps the
community grow; it enhances it. By the same turn the community benefits the college: by
helping support its athletics, by participating in its cultural and social projects, by supple-
menting campus recreational facilities, and by providing a wholesome environment in
general. Neither the college nor the community remains static. Each grows; each lends
to the other's progress.

SEARS. ROEBUi
Homecoming this year meant the biggest crowd and the big-
gest parade in eighty-four years of annual Homecoming at
Indiana. Each year alumni flock to I.S.C. to watch the color
and excitement of high stepping school bands and artistic
wheeled fantasies. This year eighteen floats and twenty-five
bands combined to stage the collegiate spectacle. An esti
mated 35,000 jammed the campus and the town and 10,000
watched the Homecoming football game. Miss Nancy Mech-
ling, chosen the 1959 Homecoming Queen, reigned in regal
splendor. The drama department presented the musical satire
"Opera Opera ' to a full house and the Glee Club gave a
concert. It was a full day, a big day, |ust about the biggest.

At I.S.C. Christmas is longer than a day — from necessity it
is earlier by many days. Christmas is a glow, a feeling, an
action, and an event. Christmas at I.S.C. is a candlelight carol,
a glee club sing, a sixty-foot tree. It is a religious pageant.
It is the solemnity of "O Holy Night and the fellowship of
the Boars Head Carol. It is a time of good will and a will
to do good. At Indiana as elsewhere it is both a holy day
and a holiday.

Havoc reigns once a year on Indiana's campus as older, wiser
sophomores introduce newly-arrived freshmen to college cus-
toms. Freshman Week witnesses the flourishing of dinks, shop-
ping bags, absurd costumes, and "I" books. Required rendi-
tions of the "Neophyte Song" praise lofty sophomores and
tease frustrated freshmen. However, the freshmen do not go
unrevenged. The light of early morning frequently reveals
effigies of sophomores hanging from buildings or trees.

FRESHMAN WEEK
R.O.T.C. BALL
With the aid of plants, paper, and ingenuity the familiar Blue
Room was converted into a "Sleepy Lagoon" for this year's
R.O.T.C. Boll. Reigning over this simulated paradise of palm
trees, philodendra, and colored streamers was Queen Kate
McKelvy. She was attended by a court of four — Barb Ben-
jeski, Nancy McElroy, Janice Bowser, and Deadra Carnack.
Cadets and their dates danced to the music of Barry Blue
and his orchestra.
THE BOY FRIEND
This year I.S.C. was the recipient of a special honor. A drama-music group from Indiana was selected to
represent the U.S.O. on a tour of military bases at Greenland, Newfoundland, Labrador, and other
northern outposts. The group, the first to be chosen from a Pennsylvania college, presented the musical
comedy "The Boyfriend." Starting in February, the tour lasted five weeks. The student actors studied "in
the air," played on the ground, and returned to the campus as world travelers and practiced performers.
Mr. Robert Ensley and Mr. Charles Davis each filled the role of a feacher-chaperone-director on the trip.

ART
The Art Department provides its students
with training for individual development as
well as instruction for future teaching. Here
the student may start with basic courses in
drawing and composition and progress to
advanced oil and watercolor painting.
Art students learn through experiment.
While getting craft experiences suitable for
teaching in public schools, they employ hand
and power tools to work with a variety of
materials — wood, metal, clay, plastic, leather,
or fiber. In advanced crafts they produce
jewelry, textiles, bookbinding, leather work,
wood carving, and metal work.
Art majors belong to the Art Club, which is
advised by Dr. Kipp and Mr. Christ. Officers
this year included James McFerren, president;
William Falrman, vice president; Gloria Som-
ple, secretary; and Nina Bruno, treasurer.

An I.S.C. business student may
pursue three different phases of busi-
ness training — stenography, account-
ing, or retailing. Thorough training
in these areas prepares the student
for either a business or a teaching
career.
Because the Business Department
requires that its students secure a
minimum of six months practical
experience in business techniques,
this department provides one of the
college's closest ties with the com-
munity. The department also spon-
sors the Junior Chamber of Com-
merce, which cooperates with various
civic services and clubs. Two busi-
ness fraternities. Pi Omega Pi and
Gamma Rho Tau, are also active in
community projects.
Officers of this year's Junior Cham-
ber of Commerce were Edward Mor-
chok, president; Paul Kuntz, vice
president; Josie Molleca, correspond-
ing secretary; Marie Lambert, re-
cording secretary; and Barbara Mar-
shall, treasurer. Miss Risher and Mr.
Thomas were the advisors.

The Education and Psychology Depart-
ment, headed by Dr. Stanley Lore, ofFers
courses designed for preparing the student
for his future teaching task. The courses
promote understanding of the teaching pro-
fession, the child, and the learning proc-
ess. A course in audio-visual education
prepares the student for competent use of
materials needed in effective teaching. Also
included in the Education Department is the
Student Teaching and Directed Activities
course. Beginning with observation and simple
teaching duties, the student gradually as-
sumes more responsible teaching activity.
Here the student acquires the invaluable ex-
perience derived from an actual teaching
situation. A five semester course designed to
meet the demand for competent, profession-
ally educated guidance counselors is also
incorporated in the Psychology and Education
Department.

To the student taking general requir-
ed courses, the English-Speech De-
partment means Communications I
and II, and Literature I and II.
To those students studying for a
major in either English or General
Speech, the scope is much broader.
For writing experience English ma-
jors have the four campus publi-
cations— THE OAK, THE PENN, THE
CUE, and THE INDIANA STUDENT
WRITES.
For dramatic experience the de-
partment produces two major plays
during the year and an indefinite
number of one act plays. Also the
department joins with the Music De-
partment in the annual Christmas
program and the Swing Out pro-
duction.
Officers for the English-Speech

dent; Richard Stivoson, vice presi-
dent; Sandra Chittister, secretary,
and Donald Fritz, treasurer. The club
was advised by Dr. Rider.

HEALTH & PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Competition in life demands good physical
and mental tiealth. Through classes in health
and physical education, this department seeks
to lead the way to good health habits and a
sound understanding and liking for sports.
Students are given the basic skills for games,
but an attempt is made to go much farther, in-
stilling a desire for sportsmanship and cour-
tesy on the field and court.
Varsity and intramural sports, good specta-
torship, health classes, and physical educa-
tion classes are all poured into a formal and
informal contest of living and learning. Phys-
ical activity classes are offered to allovv stu-
dents an opportunity to go more deeply into
a chosen sport. Riflery, golf, swimming, and
general sports classes are among the offerings.

The Home Economics Department provides
ttiorough study of home and family living.
Upon graduation the student is qualified to
teach home economics in public schools or
to supervise a school lunch program.
This department gives a domestic look to
the college campus. Often home ec students
are seen accompanying a small tot who has
been placed in their care for a fev/ weeks.
Students on campus are familiar with clever
posters advertising the home ec cafeteria,
where good lunches are both nutritious and
inexpensive. The handwork of home ec stu-
dents may be viewed at their annual fashion
show when they model their own original
creations, designed and made at I.S.C.
Mrs. Gallati advises the Home Economics

MUSIC
The Music Department prepares its students
to be either supervisors or teachers of music.
Upon graduation, the student possesses not
only the teaching skills requisite for music in-
struction, but is a thoroughly trained musician.
The Music Department contributes a great
deal to the life of the college. No football
game is complete without halftime enter-
tainment supplied by the Marching Band. The
College Choir, a selective choral group, is
traditionally active in the Christmas program.
The College Symphony Orchestra and Sym-
phonic Band provide music for Convocation
programs. And these are but a iew of the
organizations and activities sponsored by the
department.
This year's Music Education Club elected
David Aikey president, Walter Lav/rence vice
president, and Joy Doverspike secretary-
treasurer. The club was advised by Dr.
Orendorff.

SCIENCE
The fields of biology, chemistry,
physics, and physical science are
combined into the Science Depart-
ment. This department provides prep-
aration for teaching various special-
ized science subjects in secondary
schools and prepares prospective
elementary teachers for the teaching
of science in the first six grades.
The spirit of good fellovv'ship and
cooperation necessary for scientific
achievement is evident in any gather-
ing of science majors. These traits
are particularly fostered by the Sci-
ence Club, of which Dr. Arthur
Shields is advisor. One of the main
purposes of the club is to keep stu-
dents abreast of the latest happen-
ings in scientific research.
Ann Brammer served as president
of the '59-'60 Science Club; Pat
Mikesell as vice president; Rose Mary

don as treasurer.

SOCIAL STUDIES
Social studies serve two important functions.
Through study, the understanding, attitudes,
and social competencies necessary for effec-
tive citizenship are developed, and in addi-
tion, a knowledge of American culture is
imparted to students. The second function —
one more directly related to the Social Stud-
ies Department — is the preparation of future
teachers for giving instruction in history and
social studies in secondary schools.
Like other areas of study, history is not
learned exclusively from textbooks. Early in
October the Social Studies Society, an affili-
ate of the Intercollegiate Conference on Gov-
ernment, was host to the executive officers in
this region at an "Open House." In April,
delegates from the Society attended the
Model National Nominating Convention in
Harrisburg.
Dr. Wahl, Mr. Johnson, and Mr. Kehew

and James Welsh, treasurer.

FOREIGN LANGUAGE
The Foreign Language Department is com-
posed of those students preparing to be
teachers of French and Spanish. In addition,
Russian for Reading is a popular elective. A
new addition this year has been German.
Students taking modern languages or those
interested in languages are members of the
Modern Language Club. The year's program
included a Hallowe'en masquerade party en-
titled "International Affair," for which the
members dressed as representatives of various
countries. An authentic Spanish music program
was another club highlight. At the bi-monthly
meetings, various foreign speakers entertained,
as well OS campus foreign exchange students.
The term was rounded out with the annual
Spring Outing at the home of Dr. Beighler,
head of the Department.
Officers of the Foreign Language Club
were Yolondo Tocco, president; Mono Fisher,
vice president; Claudette Chombon, secretary;
and Marion Agostino, treasurer. Dr. Isar and
Dr. Bieghler advised the club.

GEOGRAPHY
The Geography Department, through its
many courses, endeavors to increase the
geographic knowledge of not only those spe-
ciolizing in this field but all college students.
Among the many courses ofFered to partici-
pants in this field are those dealing with
climatic regions, land forms, the importance
of commercial aviation and conservation of
resources. In other areas of study, the stu-
dent becomes familiar with the topography,
natural resources, customs and the people of
many of the countries of the world. When the
geography student graduates, he will be ade-
quately prepared to teach geography at
both the elementary and secondary levels. He
is also prepared for special jobs in govern-
ment service and business.
The Geographical Society is sponsored by
the Geography Department. President this
year was Thomas Harris; vice president, Con-
rad Kaminski; secretary, Harry Haenig; and
treasurer, George Gunner. The society is
advised by Dr. Gault.

ELEMENTARY
Dr. Lott, Department Chairman
Students in the elementary department are
preparing to teach children from kindergarten
through sixth grade.
These students learn more than how to
teach the readin', writin', and rithmetic skills.
In general, it is the elementary teacher who
helps guide the child with his initial steps on
Mhe educational journey, so that school will be
a pleasant and meaningful experience for him.
Activities of A.C.E., the Elementary Depart-
ment Club, this year included a fall outing
for freshmen and sophomores, a spring outing
for juniors and seniors, storytelling for the
children of Willard Home Orphanage, filling
and distributing Christmas baskets for the
needy, and stuffing envelopes for the Easter
Seal Drive.
Officers for A.C.E. this year were Margaret
Barnett, president; Dave Chesney, vice presi-
dent; Pot Dave, recording secretary; and Nan-
cy Abraham, treasurer. Miss OToole, Miss
Anderson, and Miss Kohlhepp advised the
club.

Dr. Mahachek, Chairman
MATHEMATICS
Courses provided by the Mathematics De-
partment are available to any student inter-
ested in math. Most often, of course, mathe-
matics courses are elected by those students
who are preparing for technical vvork in
some specific field or by those who plan to
teach math in secondary schools.
The Mathematics Club, sponsored by the
Mathematics Department, is also open to any
interested student. The club holds both social
and professional meetings each semester. Of-
ten a guest speaker is invited to discourse on
logarithms or logistics, on triangles or tetram-
eters, on binomials or bisection. At other
times the club calls upon students or faculty
members to provide programs.
Officers for the '59-'60 year were Louis
Angelo, president; Joan Witherow, vice presi-
dent; Patricia O'Block, secretary, and Richard
Debastiani, treasurer. Dr. Mahachek advised
the club.
Front: Mrs. Kipp, Dr. Mahochek, Mc, McKinley, Miss Arms. Bock Dr. Stnght, Mr. Govola.

mission as Second Lieutenant in the United
States Army Reserve.

organizations — the R.O.T.C. Drill Team, the
R.O.T.C. Rifle Team, and the R.O.T.C. Bond.

KEITH SCHOOL
When a student begins student teaching,
his goal of becoming a teacher is nearing ful-
fillment. The testing grounds for many students
is Keith School. The trial period begins with
observations and simple teaching duties. From
there the student is inducted into more re-
sponsible assignments. He has opportunity to
test learning theories and to observe the learn-
ing experiences of children at close hand —
how they react, behave, and achieve. This
period of apprenticeship is significant in de-
termining the student's future teaching suc-
cess. The skills, the problems, and the rewards
which characterize the teaching profession
are revealed during this trial period.

The Delts this year added a new philanthropic project to
their activities — working at the Indiana Hospital Coffee Shop.
They also continued their work with Carvelle Center and Gal-
ludet College for the Deaf.
In February the Delts held pledging ceremonies. April was
spent preparing for State Day — to be held at Indiana this
year. A Senior Farewell Dinner held at the V.F.W. Lodge,

The national merger with Pi Kappa Sigma gave Sigma Kappa
the largest sorority membership on campus this fall. The
combined efforts of the sisters provided a successful Home-
coming float and banquet. The fall pledge class was enter-
tained with a dance at the Sig Tau house. First semester came
quickly to an end with initiation and a Christmas Party.
February was a busy month for the Sig Kaps — rushing, a
Valentine Party for the children at Willard Home, and cam-
paigning for the Heart Fund. The year's social calender was
concluded with a pre-Pan-Hel Banquet, a weekend at Cook's
162 Forest, and a Senior Farewell.

The Tri Sigs' success with their Homecoming float — "Adven-

of their further success this year. Highlights of the year were
the Autumn Dance, the formal rush party, "Deep Purple
Dream," and the "Beatnik" Pledge Party at the College
Lodge. The year was concluded with a Senior Send-off Ban-
quet and card party for alumnae.
Tri Sigs also found time to fill Christmas baskets and do
social service work at the Indiana Hospital.

The Zetas started out a busy year by working many evenings
on their Homecoming float, "Adventures in Color TV. " Greek
Sing soon followed, and the girls in turquoise and gray closed
the program with an original number, "Calypso," and "The
Call of Zeta." A Bohemian party at the College Lodge mixed
food and fun, informally. More fun came later at the Spring
pledge dance at the Eagle's, and at the Senior banquet. Spe-
cial service projects for this year included sewing cancer dres-
sings and preparing a Christmas basket for a needy family.

The brothers of Tau Kappa Epsilon began the fall semester
by working on their Homecoming float, "Dixie Adventure. '
Work was followed by pleasure in the form of a Beatnik
Party. Next on the social agenda for the fraters was their an-
nual Christmas party. An informal house party closed the
semester's activities.
The second semester's social calendar opened with the
Spring Formal Rush Party held at the Eagle's Hall. Then come
two house parties and the Interfraternity Dance. The annual
Teke Spring Picnic brought the semester to a close.

FOOTBALL
Although I.S.C.'s record of the 1959 season appears at
first to be that of a mediocre team, closer analysis
shows otherwise. A slow start, along with last quarter
difficulties in the first two games, ruined the Big Indians'
chances for an early victory. A humiliating 34-7 loss at
the hands of Slippery Rock seemed to provide the
needed spark that set the team in motion. They won the
next three games. Included in this winning streak was a
6-0 victory over otherwise unbeaten Westminster. An
exceptionally strong Geneva team gave the Indians
their final defeat of the season. Determined not to end
the season on a losing note, the Indians held a highly
favored Clarion team to a 0-0 tie — ruining the Golden
Eagles' chances for the State Teachers Conference
Crown.
Another football highlight of the year was the nam-
ing of Indiana's great end, Frank Cignetti, as a first
team selection on the Little All-American team.

BASKETBALL
This year, under the capable coaching of Regis Mc-
Knight, I.S.C. once more fielded an excellent basketball
team. Although the starting unit averaged a mere six
feet, they kept up with hustling opponents by using the
fast offense that has been typical of Indiana's cham-
pionship teams in the past. The varsity team looked ex-
ceptionally good against stiff competition such as Car-
negie Tech, Geneva, Clarion, and West Virginia Wes-
lyan.
Veterans Grank Cignetti, Harry Carnahan, George
Wise, Sam Sherwood, and Spike Pendleton formed the
mainstay of the team. The bench consisted of sopho-
mores and juniors with some experience. However,
their wasn't one upperclassman in reserve. William
Betts once again put the freshmen through their paces
against some tough teams and it looks as though Indi-
ana will have a powerhouse next year.
It was a season not without difficulties. The loss of
Carnahan in early January hurt the team, and Cignetti's
leg injury prevented his playing regularly. In spite of
it all, Indiana came through with some smart ball
handling.

WRESTLING
In spite of the return of seasoned grapplers
like Bob King, Gregg Caldwell, Arnie Bowser,
and Bob Cramer, the I.S.C. wrestling team
still had its troubles. The loss of some regu-
lars, some injuries, and some tough breaks
against top-notch competition gave Coach
Shaffer an ample supply of worries. Good
men it has, though. No other team in the state
can claim a blind wrestler and a one-armed
wrestler. Our cheers to Arnie Bowser and Paul
Koontz.
