If you ask Tim Hickey about his time coaching girls' track at William Penn High School in the 1970s, you're bound to reel from his musings. "Girls were unofficial at that time, so I was unofficial," he said with a chuckle. It's not without a reason that Hickey began his narrative of his career with girls' high school track tongue-in-cheek.

I've always been told you can't fix stupid. Philadelphia, though, is trying to ban it. Last week, the City Council passed a bill that would allow police to ticket motorists, bicyclists, skateboarders, rollerbladers and scooter riders who are caught talking or texting on handheld cell phones.

Good weather isn't the only thing the Penn men's track and field team hopes will return this weekend. With some injuries plaguing the team, the Quakers hope to return to top form in time for the commencement of the Penn Relays. If the Red and Blue can do so, coach Charlie Powell is sure they will find success starting tomorrow.

Penn's Panhellenic community may embrace a new sorority in the near future. Last night, the presidents of each of Penn's eight chapters met with Panhellenic Council president, former Daily Pennsylvanian editor and College junior Alissa Eisenberg to discuss potential for an extension - the process used to add another sorority chapter.

Fifty-three Penn students took vows of silence yesterday in honor of the Day of Silence, a national day that aims to promote awareness of anti-Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender harassment in schools. The day, according to College junior and Lambda Alliance chairman Dennie Zastrow, served as a reminder that "the LGBT community is still marginalized, and there are a lot of rights that everybody else has that LGBT people don't.

For former Penn placekicker Kendall Hochman, revenge is a dish best served cold. Really, really cold. The 32-year old Hochman is over 15 years removed from his blocked field goal attempt that would've beaten high school rival Phillipsburg, but he is still looking for closure.

According to University Archives, in 1916 Hey Day was established as a "moving up" celebration to mark the advancement of each class. As Penn's Class of 2010 steps into senior status tomorrow during Hey Day, their Class of 2009 counterparts will be moving up as well with The Final Toast.

Updated Apr. 23, 4:30 a.m. When outgoing Undergraduate Assembly chairman and College and Wharton senior Wilson Tong addressed the group assembled for the UA's internal elections last night, he called UA chairman a job that "seemingly never ends." It was fitting, then, that voting lasted well into the night as the 2009-2010 UA members deliberated between College junior and former executive vice chairman Zac Byer and College sophomore and Sustainability and Facilities Committee chairman Alec Webley.

In the last 60 years, beloved Philadelphia comedian Bill Cosby has been a mainstay of the Penn Relay Carnival. He started off modestly as a competitor way back in the late 1940s and has competed on just about every surface at Franklin Field. While in junior high he participated in the 4x75 yard relay on the infield, and when he moved on to Central High School he ran in the 4x110 relay.

Strolling down Chestnut Street, College freshman Joanna Karaman is bombarded with a collage of colors emanating from the Hub building. After coming from class in College Hall, a more traditional 19th-century structure, Karaman said passing the Hub is like being "warped into a different era.

The Penn relays are four days of track and field mayhem, and the main draws are undoubtedly the sprinting events at the high school, college and professional levels. But on Thursday and Friday especially, the casual Relays spectator can catch a host of lesser-known events, especially three field competitions.

In addition to new runners on the track, this year the Penn Relays will have a different feel. The construction on the north side of Franklin Field, as well as the closure of the South Street Bridge, will bring a number of changes to this year's Penn Relays.

I'm no Fresh Prince, but come May 18, I too will be saying goodbye to the city in whose shadow I've been living for the past 20 years. Since my parents to Philadelphia in the late 1980s, parts of the city have changed a great deal: The Comcast Center tower has nestled itself next to the Mellon Bank building and the Liberty Place skyscrapers.

For senior Leah Brogan, it will be all about savoring the experience. When she steps on the track Friday for her final Penn Relays, she will be taking in every moment, realizing they will be her last competing for women's track and field in the storied meet.

Tomorrow - for the few students who don't know - is Hey Day, the traditional "moving up" day for juniors. And, in the past, it's also been the traditional "get stuff thrown at you" day for juniors. While this year's crop of juniors weren't even at Penn in 2006, when a then-junior was sent to the hospital after being hit in the eye with an egg, the Ghost of Hey Days Past should still be present tomorrow.
