While mullet tossing is not a team
sport, college pride is on the line when
students from one school go up against
those from another.
Mullet, one-pound saltwater fish, were
hurled across the Alabama-Florida state
line as high as 170 feet in the air when
college students from throughout the
South competed for a world’s record as
the Flora-Bama Lounge hosted the fifth
annual Interstate Mullet Toss and
Annual Great Gulf Coast Beach Party.
Last year’s toss was won by Steve King
of Pensacola, Fla., with a throw of 111
feet 7 inches.
During the preliminaries, with the
wind to his back, King tossed the salty
projectiles 170 feet and one-half inch.

Northwestern U.
Students’ competitiveness in the class
room may not extend onto the streets,
said Northwestern 1' jujitsu instructor
John Lewis, indicating that students
need to learn tactics to survive physical
confrontation.
Teaching students mental toughness
and the will to succeed in a fight is the
most difficult aspect of fighting for Lewis
to teach, he said at a jujitsu demonstra
tion at Northwestern 1'
The will to survive emotional tough
ness — is something you're bom with,
he said.
The goal and the only goal of this class
is to teach you how to survive a street con
frontation
.lujitsu, a martial art stressing tight
ing, uses throwing, hand and foot stnk
mg, grappling and even choking I ’alike
'The will to survive ... is some
thing you're horn with. The goal of
this class is to teach you how to sur
vive a street confrontation."
— .John Lewis,
jujitsu instructor
the more spiritual aikido and thecompet
itive judo, jujitsu is a practical art
“I’m not interested in Oriental philos
ophy," he said. “That won't help you on
the street."
Lewis, a black belt m jujitsu, is in Ins
12th year of unpaid teaching at
Northwestern 1' . and he has taught for
more than 22 years at other universities
Diane Wallander, a 1987 Northwestern

club her freshman year because she was
worried about campus rape
“Karate is not going to help you with
someone who's serious," Wallander said,
Wallander is the first, woman at
Northwestern l!. to pursue a black belt.
Jujitsu is not a function of strength,
lewis said "The smallest woman in the
class can do it."

attended the demonstration because he
was looking for a group to help him get
in shape
Hut McKissack was not sure he would
join the club "It seems like there's a lot
of falling, tie said, too much falling on
purpose."
