Cory offers socialist alternative The following is the second in a series of six profiles on the USG presidential and vice presidential candidates. Tomorrow: Jinks and Muraca. By NANCY POSTREL Collegian Staff Writer The Cory-Marinucci ticket has introduced a different perspective to the Undergraduate Student Government presidential race the perspective of the Young Socialist. “This is the only campaign in the history of USG in which students have a choice,” presidential candidate Jim Cory said. “We’re offering students a social alter native by showing them we don’t have to work within capitalistic limits. They won’t only have bourgeois candidates to choose from.” Cory, a seventh term history major, said he intends, if elected, to hold a mass meeting of students, faculty and University employes to plan a University-wide strike to fight the budget cuts and tuition hike. “We want to mobilize the labor movement to build a Labor Party and defend the students’ right to an education,” Cory stated. “We plan to use USG funds to do this. “These budget cuts are an attack on unorganized labor, on people like students who can’t defend themselves. It’s up to the trade unions to do something about it.” Cory said the upcoming tuition hikes will force thousands of students out of Penn State, adding those who remain will receive a “drastically watered-down education.” According to him, none of the other can- Boycott continued from page 1 Two shoppers said they felt guilty for making their purchases. “I broke the boycott because we’re having people for dinner,” one said. “My husband was horribly furious when I bought steaks for tonight.” One student, tossing ground beef into his cart, said all the meat he had eaten since the beginning of Fall Term was hamburger. “I hope I’m not hurting the cause too much," he said. As some University agricultural economists have indicated, that king of con sumer may be the best for lowering high meat prices. All five grocers and two economists interviewed have agreed that a short-lived boycott may cause more chaos than price drops. Local grocers complain that despite high prices food markets have not been making much money.

As for one local fast-food chain, “The week’s sales weren’t as big as we projected it to be,” Dave Orchard, Burger King assistant manager, said. Before the boycott Manager Gene Lamb said there would probably be little change in his sales. “We were down about $4OO or $500,” Orchard said. “We did seem to be selling a lot less meat and a lot more fish,” he said, citing a 20 per cent increase in fish sales. McDonald’s Assistant McCarthy quits James McCarthy, West Halls Residence Association president, resigned Wed nesday at a WHRA meeting. McCarthy said he was “ordered out of student government” by his parents because of the poor grades he received Winter Term. Arthur Tanzella, former vice president, will take over as the new WHRA president. didates have offered feasible solutions to the “monetary crisis.” “Their heads are in the sky,” he commented. “These guys are living in a dream world.” Cory said he feels there is no possibility there will not be a strike, whether or not he leads it. “There’s a lot of sentiment within the Union to strike, and the faculty will have to strike. Students will just tail-end it.” Cory has been involved in the left wing movement for about five years. He is president of the Young Socialists and a member of the Jazz Club. His running mate, Joe Marinucci, is a third term human development major. He is a member of the Young Socialists, the Folklore Society and is East Halls coor dinator. “Our campaign is a realization of everything that’s going on, not just the sectional issue of Penn State,” he said. “The other candidates don’t seem to know what’s going on.” He said if concessions could be won from the labor movement without having a strike, they would not hold one. “But no long term gains can be gotten without effort toward attacking the government.” Cory said his platform rests partly on the fact that he is not isolating students from faculty in his goals. Marinucci added, "Our campaign will at least build the socialist movement, and help get the program ac complished. This is a new era, and we can’t expect the same things that went on in the 50’s and 60’s to have any bearing on what is going on today.” Manager Gary Workman said the local chain had no sales decline but added fish sales increased. He said he did not know if the fish increase was from the boycott or a recent promotional campaign. “I expected from $3OO to 500 more than what we actually made,” Roy Rogers Restaurant Manager Don Hyde said. Hyde said he lacked past figures with which to compare last week’s business but told the Collegian, “I’m sure it (the boycott) did affect us.” Meanwhile, the Beef Arena Anyone interested in a standard Red Cross First Aid course for qualification as a medic for the Festival call Sue Graham - 237-1784 and leave your name.

As local food business people assert, the State College meat boycott will not rock the national economy. But, in the words of one middle-aged boycotter, “I think it does demonstrate to the government that an aroused citizenry has some bite.” exercise sandals Come rest your feet in the Faculty Senate College The College of Physical Education and Recreation, the final college to elect an undergraduate 'to the University Faculty Senate this year, will hold voting for its representative today and tomorrow.
