She passed her examination August 8 and advanced to yellow belt class ification. These ranking exams include performing several kata forms, “stylized simulated combat move ments,” various one step moves, combinations of techniques, kicks, and pure techniques. There are eight kyus or ranks in karate starting with white and going through yellow, blue, green, pur ple, three degrees or brown, and black. A willowy blonde, Gail is the only girl to make her mark in the A&M club although two others in the club hold white belts. Sev eral new girls are expected to join the club in the next few days. Steve would like to change the public image of karate through this club. He hesitates to per form the well known brick and board breaking demonstrations. “Karate is control,” he said. “It is to increase coordination, balance, agility, power, and tech nique. The point is to get into shape and earn rank.” The screams associated with karate serve a dual purpose. It (screaming) helps wtih breath control so a person can exert more power into a thrust. Also, one can gain a psychological ad vantage over your opponent by scaring him, said Gail. Workouts start wtih light con ditioning exercises for the first two weeks and go into heavier conditioning each week. This is about the time several people lose interest in the club. Steve is convinced that “any one can join and learn. No ex perience or special physical talent is needed. We can teach every thing.” Karate is an exhausting sport. During a recent demonstration, Steve and blue belt sophomore Bud Tripett went through a ten- minute sparring match, and both left heavily winded. Workouts are mixed, but the women are not asked to spar Coed ‘Shoot Out’ A&M coeds have the chance to ‘shoot it out’ with ‘Teasips’ by qualifying for the TAMU Wom en’s Rifle Team. Sept. 7 at 5 p.m. is the try out date, but interested coeds are asked to sign up before noon to be scheduled for firing. The firing range is located in the basement of the Military Sci ence Building. Girls are asked to use the entrance across from the Physics Building. The Rifle Team for coeds was started last year and letter sweaters were awarded to four girls. The team participated in four tournaments zeroing in on two first places and one second. At the Fiesta Match in San An tonio, it finished 11th of 21 teams in overall competition. Nineteen of the teams were men. “Provided the girls can be com petitive with a large number of other girls teams, we will attend the Kansas State Turkey Shoot in Marion,” said Sgt.l.C. M. M. Schill, coach and advisor for the rifle teams. Schill added “This is not a glamorous sport, girls have to wear combat boots and leather shooting jackets. Being on the team requires six to eight hours practice a week.” with either another woman or a man. The reasoning behind this is that Steve has seen too many women lose their tempers and make unnecessary strikes and fouls. Any woman can volunteer to spar. Steve recalled one time a stu dent of his had to use this skill in self defense. The incident in- solved his 5’3 fiance who was playfully grabbed from behind by a 6'2" man. She threw an elbow thrust to his ribs and flattened him wtih a strike to the side of his head. Any student interested in join ing the club may contact Steve at 846-3536 or call Gail at 846-7565. Another demonstration will be held in Room 261 at G. Rollie White Field House at 6:30 to night. Classes will begin Monday at 6:30. Go-Go Dancers Don’t Demonstrate Routines For Houston Courtroom HOUSTON <A>) — A crowded courtroom went away disappoint ed Wednesday when they didn’t get to see eight local go-go danc ers demonstrate their routines in a case where the dancers are charged with performing lewd and vulgar dances. The girls were charged July 8 under a state law following a police raid on a local lounge. Police said the girls were top less except for band-aids. The courtroom of County Crim inal Court at Law Judge J. D. Guyon was jammed with specta tors who came to see the girls dance as vice squad officer S. L.

Main Bryarj, Phone: 823-0742 STATE FARM INSURANC STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY Home Office: Bloomington, Illinois Butler explained the girls were arrested under a state charge and not a city ordinance. During a court break, two of the girls agreed that the trial might become a test case. “I’m hoping they will do away with the ‘band-aids’ completely and leave the clubs alone,” said Brenda Lou Andrews, 21. “I’m hoping it will be the final case against topless.” Mrs. Edith Lee Hall, 30, an other of the eight women charged, said “Actually, myself, I don’t see anything wrong in it. The customers are not offended. I have customers who bring their wives.” Judge Guyon adjourned the proceedings until Thursday with out the girls dong their promised dance when their attorney asked for time to prepare a motion. 1:15 NOW SHOWING 3:18 - 5:21 - 7:2( |weep of “LAST wnors.
