judge in Centre County. •
.. • Brown, 41, is running on both the Democratic and
• Republican tickets for judge of the Court of Common Pleas and
was the only lawyer to file for judge before the March 6
deadline. In the 1977 campaign for judge, Brown won the
Republican nomination, but lost the Democratic bid to
&chard M. Sharp. In the November general election, Sharp
won by a narrow margin.of 340 votes. -
The closeness of the last election is the main reason there
are no other candidates, Brown said.
. I !The effort that I put into the last campaign convinced those
that might be thinking of it not to run," he said.

Even though he has the election all but won, Brown still

because this is an elective position. I am prepared to put forth
the effort," he said.
One lawyer who considered challenging Brown, but then
decided not to, was Thomas E. Sterling of State College. He
also ran for judge in 1977, but said that this year he could not
spare the time to campaign.
As judge, Brown said that he will be firm in the handling of
cases. "I will treat those convicted as firmly as necessary," he
said.
Brown said he will try to maintain what he calls "an open
door," so he is available to the public. He said he will
"maintain a public status and be a visible individual in the
community."
The second judgeship for the county was created by the state
General Assembly last November. A state Supreme Court
report found that Sharp has the second heaviest caseload of
any judge in Pennsylvania. —by Jim Buzinski

Eight laundry dryers in North Halls
are operating free of charge in an
effort to test new timers.
"We want to see how effective they
are," said Donald Arndt, director of
Housing Services. "If 'this system
works well, all University dryers will
be free next fall."
The present 10-cent charge on the
dryers would probably be transferred
to the washing machine charge, in
creasing the cost of a laundry ticket
to 35 cents.
"I would hope this system works,
because there has been a lot of
vandalism on the dryers," Arndt
said. "Right now, however, the
washing machines are still the same
price."

If this plan is successful, the coin
operated timers would be removed
next fall and replaced with hand
operated timers. These would
operate for 15 minutes, instead of the
present half-hour span.
"This would be better for students
with fragile clothing, since the
clothes would probably be dry in 15
minutes," Arndt said.
The decision to install the timers in
North Halls was not influenced by a
lawsuit against the University con
cerning burned clothes in a North
Halls dryer. Susan Vlaun ( 6th-
English and philosophy), who lost the
lawsuit, said, "I'm glad they're doing
