a gift," Sena said, "and are experiencing
guilt because we cant feel anything."
Sena said certain groups are more
vulnerable to holiday depression than
others. Old people that are alone and who
only have memories of past Christmases
often arc sad during the holidays. Young
single people, and recently divorced peo¬
ple are also vulnerable. Also a traumatic
experienced that occurred during the
holidays can serve as a yearly reminder of
Sena identified three groups of stressors
that contribute to holiday saddness. First,
he listed biological stressors such as diet,
exercise and sleeping patterns. He said
that diet was particularly important
because we tend (o eat a lot of sugar and
drink a lot of alochol during the holidays.
He said that many of use experience "the
sugar blues" since sugar gives us an imme¬
diate jolt of energy 3nd then drops our
energy level way down.
Socio-economic status also plays a large
part in holiday depression. People often
try to get and give everything they can,
and as a result, often go into debt or exc-
rience financial trouble. We also expect a
lot from our families during this time and
are often let down or disappointed, Sena
first step was to portray Christmas in a
realistic light.-'We are bombarded by the
media," she said, and its portrayal of
Christmas. We thinlc that our.Christmases
should be as happy and joyous as those
depicted on television and are disappointed
when it doesn't work out that way," she
"We don't have to do away with holi¬
days, but we must be realistic about holi¬
days. Few of use have ideal families," she
said, and we should focus on our own
personality and how we can change our¬
selves to help the family instead of just

should avoid touchy issues'and topics dur¬

Andrade said that is was notbad to
need time to gel away from the family
during the holidays. She said that we all
need "quiet time alone." She also said that
people who are going to be alone during
the holidays should plan activities and
spend a lot of time with other people. This

vacation and do something exciting, she
Planning ahead will also help take the
burden off the holidays. "Start shopping

season when it plays the Falcons of

same. Spurred by this year's success mat
was finally rewarded with a national
ranking, the burgeoning Bulldog program
will continue in its .drive for top level
competition and stadium expansion. The
wheels of the Big Red Machine are
already in motion. Recruiting will, no
doubt, become more fruitful than ever.
Quality recruiting means quality football

Back in the heal of summer, when
shoulder pads and helmets make a
football player wonder just how
much he wants to play football after all,
when bowl games seem light years away,
the Fresno State football team was
working. Hard. There was a feeling
among the coaches and players; a common
goal was already established. They were
well aware of their potential and the
knowledge that potential is only clay that
must be given shape, molded, with care, to
perfection. The Bulldog coaching staff,
headed by the inimitable Jim Sweeney,
instilled an uncommon unity among the
players during the formative stages. Esprit
de corps ran high in the Sweeney Aerial
Command throughout the year. Team¬
work was, and is, the factor that set the
Bulldogs apart in "85
The importance of the Bulldogs'
season-opening 26-6 win over
UNLV mutt not be overlooked. It
was perhaps the moat crucial win of the
season, sans the PCAA clincher against
Long Beach Slate. A toss to tbe Rebels
could have had a significant impact on the
course of this team. Instead, the 'Dogs
whipped Harvey Hyde's squad and put
the fear of 'Dog into the rest of tbe PCAA
with rugged defense and a strong running
game. Oregon State and Cal Poly-SLO
were next to succumb to the Bulldogs.
Then, Dick Tomey's Rainbow Warriors
put the 'Dogs to the test. While Red Wave
fans were flying high. Coach Sweeney
carried the look of concern on bis face.
The Rainbows were a tough, physical
learn, Sweeney said. Much stronger than
we, be added. The Rainbows proved to be
worthy opponents, lying the 'Dogs to-put
the only blemish — just a little one —: on
an otherwise perfect record. The Bulldogs
slaked their claim to the PCAA title with
four blowouts over inferior opposition.
San Jose State. New Mexico State, Utah
State and Fullerton Stale. Then, in a game
that you just couldn't help but .look
beyond, the Tigers of UOPcameclose to
spoiling the dream. While the 'Dogs
managed to pull out a 43-37 win, they
were reminded of an invaluable word —-
humility. Despite sportingan 8-0-1 record,
t he Bu lid ogs were no better off the the 6-4
49ers of Long Beach State. A ion would
put the Niners in the Cal Bowl and send
tbe Bulldogs home, tail between legs. In

If there was one thing the Fresno State
basketball team needed after its first three
games of the season, it was rebounding.
The 'Dogs were out-muscled by three of
their fust four opponents.
Now, after being out-manned 80-36 by
the 13th-ranked Tigers of Memphis State

Bulldog Coach Boyd Grant. "We are a

offensively better."

■ "We had some positive things happen
there," Gram said. "If bad just shot the
.half relatively well against Memphis
Stale, it would have been a decent game."
The 'Dogsare shooting a mediocre 46.7
percent from the field but should receive a
boost by bringing hot-shooting Daniel
Means' into the starting lineup. Means,
who sat out one game with an injury,
pumped in 10 points against.the Tigers
and is currently shooting a sizzling 68.8
percent from the field.
Means replaces Leo Walker, who is
averaging jusl 12 points a game.
"We need to continue lo get stronger in
bringing the ball up the floor and getting
into offense and being smart on offense,"
said Grant. Apparently. Grant feels
Means can do the job.
If the 'Dogs are to be successful, they
will need more offensive productivity
from senior forward-Jos Kuipers. Ham¬
pered by preseason ankle surgery and a
nagging elbow injury, Kuipers has
managed nine points a game and is
shooting for an ice-cold 34 JS percent from
the field.
Senior Brian Salone and freshman
Mike Mitchell have provided steady
scoring for the 'Dogs, averaging 14.7 and
12.8 points h game, respectively.
