The text of Schweiker's an nouncement statement follows: I am today announcing my candidaty for re-election to the United - *States Senate from Pennsylvania. This will not be a campaign of lofty priimises or loose pledges. For I have found that talking is seldom a substitute for doing. Instead, I welcome a review by Pennsylvanias of the independent judgement I've tried to exercise in my first term—as the best measure of what a second term might bring.. • In my own review of the past six years, I find some disap pointments and some satisfying accomplishments. First, three principal disap pointments come to mind: Reform in campaign financing legislation, reform of Congressional spending —Betsy Seanor would like to express her appreciation for all of the cards, notes and visits she received during her recent illness. —Please be careful not to put the on campus mail and mail for the dorms in with the mail to be sent out.

But in each of these three areas the Congress knows what should be done, but has not done it. It is frustrating and discouraging. But the satisfactions have far outweighed the disappointments. The Volunteer Army' is in being and working. Black lung benefits are now being paid—and coal mine safety has been improved. Air-skyjacking has been dramatically reduced. The cost cutting suggestion program for military servicemen and women has saved the taxpayers over $728,000,000. Funds to convert coal to' natural - gas 'and fuel - oil have been doubled. A significant start has been made on research into serious diseases such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Our involvement in the Vietnam war is over.

I am grateful to the people of Penn sylvania for the chance they gave me to help. Nothing has been more satisfying, though, than meeting the individual needs of Penn sylvanians 'trying to get their government to listen, to notice, to respond. And nothing has received higher attention in my office than helping people. My campaign will try simply to make this record of six years available for public review and judgement. Otherwise as a candidate I will have only one objective: to conduct myself and my campaign with the integrity every private citizen has the right to expect of every public servant. Editor's Opinions University Park, Pa., February—Diane Nottle, the new editor of the Daily Collegian, the student newspaper at the Penn sylvania State University, has some interesting things to say about the campus mood these days. Diane, who turned 19 in January, a few days before she was named one of the youngest editors in Collegian history, is at the forefront of the emergence of a new breed of student—the post- Vietnam campus opinion leader. A junior, Diane is one of a few campus "veteran" VIPs who have spent an entire college career during "post-protest" days. As a college student, she has never seen a campus demonstration or disruption. "I wouldn't call today's students apathetic at all," she says, disagreeing with many who claim students are becoming more cynical and withdrawn. In fact, she thinks the students on campus today might be more., "issue-oriented" and better 'in formed than students were at the peak of the campus rebellion. And students are not flocking away from the "system." "Students are trying to work within the system, though they are often unhappy about what the system does,'' she says. Diane feels that students are concerned about their role in decision-making. The selection of a student as a nominee for ap pointment to the University Board of Trustees might be the major issue on campus, she thinks. And for those who claim Watergate has "turned off" students to the government, Diane has this observation. She has found that Watergate has had a positive effect on students, heightening their interest in government and law. Richard Schweiker seeks re-election.
