Little light permeated through the doors and tiny windows. I could smell a faint wooden scent. He was editor in chief of the Centre Daily Times; he held a seat on the State College Borough Council -- now Bill Welch would like to be mayor. As a former borough council member and president and a current University research associate, Joseph Wakeley believes he has the diverse experience necessary to represent borough residents as mayor. Protesters carrying posters with messages like "Novak: Travesty of a Trustee" called for a boycott of the Centre Daily Times, the resignation of University Trustee Ben Novak and the elimination of The Lionhearted from the University before the Blue-White game Saturday. The 19th Annual Beta Sigma Beta Sy Barash Regatta had everybody singing along with the blues. The departure of WQWK-FM (97 QWK) morning disc jockeys Tom Ragan and Karen Pingar last Friday surprised quite a few people. But no one was more surprised than General Manager Rob Schmidt.
Freshman Kyle Dixon captured his third victory in two weeks as the Penn State Cycling Team competed with 14 other teams at Indiana University of Pennsylvania this past weekend.

The men's tennis team split its weekend battles with two Big Ten powers. Women's Tennis Coach Sue Whiteside pointed to this weekend's trip to Michigan as a warm up before the Big Ten championships. Maybe the men's lacrosse team did learn something last week against Hobart. Same ol' situation. That's how it was this weekend for the Lady Lion softball team. Another four-game series with a tough Big Ten foe. More crummy weather. More good hitting negated by bad breaks and good defense. Most importantly, a continued lack of run production that meant once again being on the low end of the scoring. Things just aren't going well for the baseball team these days. After all, the Lions' prospects seemed hopeful coming into the weekend. They were about to face an equally struggling Northwestern team, and it wasn't inconceivable they could sneak away with at least a couple of wins. They're going back to Cali, to Cali, to Cali.
