Hart thinks otherwise. He predicted a
drastic turnaround the last two or three
weeks prior to election day. In fact, much
of his speech was directed at the unde¬

factor in the election. So critical. Hart

Hart said lhat "once the sides are clearly

He also stressed that registering more

people everywhere saw that it was good,
and decided to be fruitful and multiply
their own finances.
What eventually followed was a great
lull, for while men had pictures of Farrah
and Christie and Heather, the women had
to settle for Donny and Ziggy and daisies
on their walls. Then, lo and behold, it
happened: calenders with 12 handsome
males representing each month ofthe year
were scattered upon the face of the earth.
And, yea. a lot of females in a lot of places

"Most schools have their own calend¬

seemed profitable enough."
It was back in January that Wapner got
the idea. Two months later, he was sitting
with various group's of females on cam¬
pus, watching the guys go by.
"1 asked the girls I was sitting with then
to pick out 40-50 who they thought were
potential candidates," he said. "I told
them,'Bring mc the best-looking guys you
know of.'Then I took the candidates'pic¬
tures, and had girls who had never seen
any of them pick the 12 best."
The dozen selected were: Phil Marchi-
