Or is it just dose to being risque? I wrote the lyrics as a party song for some friends who think it's cute if just a wee bit daring. "II wonder what you think? There's just one way to find out, and that's to present it for your honest appraisal. I'd like to think it isn't risque, but when considered in the light of contemporary social standards. I've heard things just as "bad" or worse, on such TV shows as "All In The Family," "The Johnny Carson Show," etc. Now, 1 never really had a brash kid sister who carelessly sprinkled in the bathroom.thus driving her immaculate older brother out of his mind with her careless habit. But 1 can imagine that there are other brothers of kid sisters who have. And 1 believe we can take even immaculateness to extremes as the person of this song-poem does. Whatever the case, I shall be interested to have your re action. Honestly 1 I thought the idea was pretty funny, myself. It was sug gested to me by a couple of lines a friend (female) told me about seeing scribbled on the wall of a ladies powder room: "If you sprinkle when you tinkle. Be a sweetie wipe the seatie!" DO YOU SPRINKLE? There's a solemn social ques tion I must ask while yet I may. Cause tomorrow we're to marry I And I've got to know today. It's a thorny social o*>??Honl Lord it fills me with dismay! Do you sprinkle when you tinkle In the bathroom every day? Once I had a cute kid sister Who was careless as could be. Lord, she sprinkled when she tinkled Till she made a wreck of me. So I swore if I should marry. It would never, ever be To a sprinkler in the bathroom Who'd bring me such misery. Do you sprinkle when you tinkle In the bathroom every day? Do you sprinkle when you tinkle Like my Desiray? Lord, she drives me to distrac tion And she fills me with dismay! Do you sprinkle when you tinkle In the bathroom every day? BEPEAT BEFBAIN The sarlous side of the poem is that it (hopefully) delivers a devastating blow to human prejudices, especially petty ones. Pembroke Kiwanis Club Hear Givens Lift to light nil?J Uwiy The new P.S.U. Chancellor, Dr. Paul Givens, was wel comed by Pembroke Kiwa nians at their Tuesday evening meeting at Sims Restaurant.

The faculty of the institution is constantly con cerned with learning they read, they study, they do research in the pursuit of knowledge and in the most effective means to transmit their enthusiasm for learning to the students. The community is involved through its love, interest and desires for its young people. A college education is important. Young people are asking and searching for answers. The University must stimulate them to a life-long desire to learn. Qualities of inquiry must be nurtured ? to uk questions end seek answers in all areas of living. We want them to be intelligently critical of the world in which they live. We want them to be creative to see new relationships, insights sounds, movement.

A Doctor in the HouseY Dale Friar Gave Up Football to^Jecome a Chiropractor By DAVE GOLOWENSKI Journal Sports Writer Winning, Vince Lombard! once said, isnt everything, it's the ONLY thing. Football, many felt, was also the ONLY thing to Lombardi. The legendary coach's words notwithstanding, football was not the only thing to Dale Friar of Vermilion. Eligible to play another year at the University of Chicago, Friar has given op carrying the football so he could study chiropractic medicine in South Carolina. FRIAR HAS turned his back on a pretty remarkable career. "I matured as a football player last season," the 1076 Vermilion High School graduate explains. "I played football with intensity." Friar, 6-10 and 170 pounds, rushed for 1,360 yards last year, the first at the university to do so. Although the school is not a football powerhouse, Friar points out it once was. "The school boasts two Helsman Trophy winners," he says. "When I went over the 1,000 yard mark last season, they stopped the game and aBerwanger presented me with the My parents were there. It was quite a thrill." Jay Berwanger? He was a University of Chicago football player, too. He also won the first Helsman Trophy. "They have a good program there. Football was cut out completely in the 1930's because many people felt too much emphasis was being placed on athletics, Friar says. "NOW FOOTBALL is coming back because the alumni put pressure on to have it. I think the administration would like the sport to be on the same level as the Ivy League schools." "There are some great football players at the University of Chicago," the running back says. "We thought we were going to have a really good season last year, but we lost five games by a total of 13 points. So we were competitive and this year's team looks even better." Friar ended the season as the third leading rusher in NCAA. Division HI football. He was nominated by Illinois coaches for All-American honors. "1 wm the first to go ever 1,666 yards la the CMcmo area last as as on aad everybodyMadof made a big (Mai sat sf it," be says, aot bracing i ?art of bale to bo ieevtag it But, you 000, I waalad to am athletics aad football la art am where I waat Ie ?s Aad 1 fthJTl aasd the fullest ? ' A lie goes on. "i got other things from football, too. It has given me a positive attitude and I was able to know some of the greatest men I've met In my life. I really couldn't do much better than I've done." "last year. Dallas (Cowboys), the (Philadelphia) Kagles and the (San Franciscoi 49er* sent me letters," Friar says "They wanted stats and they explained about open try outs I don't think I would be drafted, even If I staryed for my senior year, but, you w, something like that is always in the back of your mind. "I'M NOT a real biK runner, but I do have good power. You might say I run with authority and 1 havegood moves in the open," Kriar assesses. "I have no regrets in bypaartng football. Since my Junior year in high school, I've known what I wanted to be. I've been putting on the pads for 10 years. Maybe when I see the guys sweat and practice I'll miss it," he states. "Who knows? Last year I waited until a week before the practice to make up my mind to play," Friar says. Friar has already left the Universty of Chicago. He transferred and has put in a school-quarter of work at Sherman College of Chiropractic Medicine. "NOW THAT I'm in, I'm glad because everything I study is career oriented," he says. "At Chicago, when I put in five or six hours of lab work in chemistry or biology, I couldn't see the purpose. Now I can." Why a chiropractor? "When I was little, I sustained a back injury in a car accident," he explains. "And I hurt it again when I was long-jumping on the 8th grade track team. I had hoped to be the state champ in the long jump but the pain me to quit my sophomore and freshman years. "Then I began to see Dr. (L.Q.) Adams of Vermilion. I would go into his office at seven in the morning before a meet and not be able to lift my left leg. He would manipulate my spine and take the tension out and relieve the pain so I could go out and compete "After that, I began going to his office more and talking to his patients. That's how I became convinced of the value of it," Friar says. "Besides, I take regular treatments now and feel free of pain. "I would like to work in sports medicine. Of course, I still have a lot to learn. But one of my ideas is to give talks to high school athletes and explain to them the dangers of back injuries and what a chiropractor can do for them," he states. "I see many unnecessary back operations." AT AGE 21, Friar is full of the future, but he takes another moment to reflect upon his Immediate and successful past "I had a love affair with football It is, always was and always wUl be my favorite same " Dale Friar Reprinted from THE JOURNAL Lorain, Ohio -- Chicago't O'Hara airport, with 417 mWien m paatawgar traffic, n tha awW'l buwit Ml?Hi 'What yaw tftmfc you mutt 4a n yew want ta 4a."
