Crime-Heads Grilled for College Bowl

After a gruelling 14-hour session, the CRIMSON has selected its four scholars for its General Electric College Bowl appearance later this month.

Dozens of Crimeds, clad in pastel shirts, entered the competition, held in a room carefully designed to simulate a television studio. Coach Joel R. Kramer began to rapid-fire questions at them, and made a record of who answered what.

After about eight hours, several of the participants began to scream "Let me out," and the attrition rate gradually increased until only four remained after 14 hours.

Meet the quartet which will represent the CRIMSON: In the left seat, David E. Gordon '69, associate business manager, who had prepared by studying philosophy and baseball through five straight all-nighters, and managed a top score even though he slept through half the questioning period.

In the second seat, captain Anne "Wendy" de Saint Phalle '70, who has promised to wear a skirt on the show, if the CRIMSON will buy her one.

In the Penultimate seat, Jay Cantor '70, who claims to have read every book ever written except the Bible.

In the right-hand seat, Charles M. "Chuck" Hagen '70, who was on academic pro last year and is sure to be voted the "Comeback of the Year Award."
