If they don't Pitt-USC coverage TO THE EDITOR: To put it mildly, the two-part article by Tim Panaccio on the Pitt-USC game was one of the shoddiest pieces of reporting I have ever read. I was at that game, but after reading that article. I wonder if he was at the same game I was, Apparently Panaccio is bored by hard-hitting, power football. A much bigger and strongei'Southern Cal had to earn every yard against a gallant Pitt defense. To say that Anthony Davis "single-handedly carried the Trojans to an 80-yard drive" does a grave - injustice to quarterback Vince Evans, the five running backs behind him (not even Davis could have played in that meatgrinder every play, as was shown by his appearing in at most two-thirds of USC's offensive plays), and the Trojan's excellent offensive line. But the poor reporting carried over to his "observations" on the crowd. They were no more (or less) drunk than we are at Beaver Stadium. And if the game was boring, why did the fans remain until less than a minute to go in the game? Obviously they enjoyed the game as much as I did, and they showed it in their continuous vocal support for the Panthers. I suggest that the Collegian find another sports writer who isn't so horny (those tanned girls with red'and gold pom-poms were figments of his imagination) and who doesn't try to make good reading for PSU, thinking no one would care to challenge him. Sports reporting TO THE EDITOR: I would like to salute the Daily Collegian and writer Mike Rodman as true pioneers in the field of sports journalism. Rodman's article on the Chi Phi -Alpha Sig in tramural football game was truly written in a style not yet seen in twentieth century journalism. It is a shame that the Collegian editors are not quire adept at screening advertisements from accurate sports reports. But since this "article" did find its way onto liege 11 of Wed nesday's Collegian, I'd like to offer some advice to the man who wrote this "accurate — account . of the game: Take Journ. 213 (news writing) next - term.

The referee made bad call (too many men) and you blame the loss of Alpha on him. That should be labeled "according to Alpha Sig," not your opinion if you are a writer. Secondly, the lead of your story (if there is- one) is, the seventh paragraph. This may be the fault of someone in copy,l but if you put that story together in that order, you should be; demoted to answering telephones and opening the . door,. A good reporter also gets his facts straight. The Chi Phi C.B.i couldn't have completed a pass to John Morehouse; no o 'e in Chi Phi answers to that one. Also, there's little wonder why the ri m defensive line tipped so many passes. If that field goal try as from 40 yarBS, then the defense was 12 feet tall. Finally, where was that "large crowd, irfcluding two little sisters" that you wrote about? The two girls were the only people there, but I guess we could still call the ref's decision "famous." After all, I'm sure the whole university cares about Tuesday night's game. Isn't that why it made the sports pages? In the future, please try to give us journalism instead of advertising. Opinions belong in the ads or editorials, not in factual accounts of football games. I don't like to eat lunch twice while reading the Collegian Those English courses . , TO THE EDITOR: I'm replying to the letter to the editor in the Oct. 2 Collegian concerning English 1 and English 3. • It's true that these two courses are required for just about everyone in Penn State: But the writer of the letter must have a narrow scope of friends to say that everyone he talks to finds the courses boring and depressing. I for one find English Iran interesting and fundamental course in fearing the basics, of writing a paragraph. While being,taught the rules of gram Mar and composition, the course also offers an outlet for creativity. As fotWie egocentric professors who the writer referred to: Well; my teacher MisS Jayne Kribss, happens to be a witty, interesting and vivacious teacher. And I for one am not "kissing the teacher's ass" as the writer put it; yet I am so far receiving an A in the course (English 1). The teacher' also manages to teach the rules of composition without cramping BUSINESS MANAGER ,od stand ckz a l leTtrxr, or changing my style of writing, to make my papers look "computer printout," as the writer of the letter put it.

TO THE EDITOR: By writing this letter, I am hoping to get some action on a problem which has been plaguing the residents of Hamilton for the last two years. Every once in a while, our water takes on the smell of crude oil. After several incidents last year, ,a man came to our dorm, verified the stench in the water, took a sample.- and never returned Eventually the smell faded, but now it is back again. I tear that before too long. I will wake up with no liver, or perhaps never wake up, at all. Does anyone know what poison is being dumped in our drinking water?
