admission to these schools, an individual
must graduate from Cal Tech, the Mas¬
sachusetts Institute of Technology, Stan¬
ford or any Ivy League college, with a
GPA of 3.5 or higher.
Question:Why do professional wrestlers
always fling themselves off of the ropes
when they can get more momentum from
running and jumping?
Answer:Because professional wrestlers are
so intelligent (89% of them are college
graduates). They know that the ropes in
the wrestling ring are made of the same
material used to catapult jet planes off of
aircraft carriers. Although.it does not
look like it, a 300-pound wrestler bouncing
off the ropes travels at an excess of 200

admirable assertion that hard work,
.determination and faith can take a person
very far. In his case, it got him out of west
Fresno and into a career in the NFL.
"I've been fortunate to be one of the few
athletes to experience professional foot¬
ball." he said. "A lot of things have
happened for me. Even if I don't play
football again. I wouldn't trade my three
years in the NFL for anything."

As a Marine Officer, you could be in charge of a
Mach2 + F/A-18A, a vertical take-off Harrier or
one of our other jets or helicopters. And you could
do it by the time you're 23. But it takes a special
commitment on your part. We
demand leaders at all levels.
We teach you to be one. If

or junior, ask about our Platoon Leaders Class
program. If you're a senior, check out our Officer
Candidate Class programs. Starting salaries are
from $18,000 to $24,000. And you can
count on going
farther... faster.
miles per hour.
Question: Why do so many wrestlers cheat
and not get punished?
AnswenThe wrestlers only cheat because
their determination to win is so great, and
the referees understand this. As a result,
minor fouls, like pulling the hair, gouging
the eye and hitting your opponent with a
lead pipe are often condoned.'The more
serious fouls (not wearing regulation
boots, putting safety pins into one's own
cheek, joining a rival wrestling federation)
are always severely penalized.
Question: Is the Iron Sheik really Iranian?
He looks more like some Hollywood actor
impersonating an overweight Omar Sharif.
Answer: As a matter of fact, the Iron Sheik
is only half Iranian. His lineage, however,
is royal. His father is a third cousin of
Ayatullah Khomeini's step-mother's sister.
The blood on his mother's side goes back
to the House of Tudor in England which
means the Iron Sheik is a descendant of
Elizabeth land Henry VIII.
Question: If Nikolai Volkov is really a
Russian Communist, why is he allowed to
wrestle professionally outside of the Iron
Curtain?
Answer:Vjolkov has a special exit visa
signed by thc SecreTary-General himself.
This enables him to go where he pleases
without being restricted by government
officials. Contrary to popular belief, it is
not illegal for communist athletes to
compete professionally (if you saw Rocky
IV. you would know this).
Question:Do wrestling managers actually
manage their wrestlers? All they seem to
do is hit opponents with canes.
Answer: Wrest ling managers, believe it or
not, nave great knowledge of the art of
wrestling. Bobby "the Brain" Heenan, for
example, knows wrestling just like Angelo
Dundee knows boxing or Bill Walsh knows
football. A manager can be of great
assistance to the wrestler in explaining
scientific wrestling and the extremely
defined technique required to throw
someone to the ground or hit him in the
face. ^
Okay. You people are just too slick tor
me. None of what 1 wrote is anything dose
to the truth. If you believed any of this, I
hate to tell you that you have the mind of a
wrestling referee.
