•The Daily Collegian Thursday, April 24,1980 Usehak prepares, hopes for Pa. beauty title By STACY KRUSCH Daily Collegian Staff Writer Singing, dancing and modeling have been a part of Ann Uschak’s life since preschool. Now, at age 24, Uschak has accumulated numerous trophies which show her many talents. Her latest trophy is from March 22, when she was crowned Miss Central Pennsylvania in the Miss Central Pennsylvania Scholarship Pageant in Hollidaysburg Uschak, who graduated magna cum laude from the University of Pittsburgh, is a graduate student in speech and theater at the University. Before she began her master’s program here, Uschak taught eight and ninth grade English for two and a half years. After she finishes her master’s program this summer, Uschak wants to continue her education in theater. “Ultimately I would like to work in children’s theater and television,” she said. Uschak is now busy with preparations for the Miss Penn sylvania Pageant at the Jaffa Mosque, Altoona, in June, while also fulfilling her duties as Miss Central MUSHROOM STUFFED POTATOES SPINACH QUICHE MEATLESS CHIU SOUP CHEESE SANDWICH SPINACH CREPES | I Brittany| s not Fast Food { ) house of fine soups & ® S 254 Calder Way § « soups 8 1 VEGETARIAN. sandwiches § 1 even if you can’t enjoy our meat dishes, | g we can excite your taste buds!

As Miss Central Pennsylvania, Uschak acts as the public relations agent for the area, .traveling throughout the state and informing people of what central Pennsylvania has to offer. The title is not the first title Uschak has held. Some of her other titles include Dairy Princess and Penn sylvania May Queen. She hopes to win the title of Miss Pennsylvania in June and then go on to the Miss America Pageant next September in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The Miss Pennsylvania Pageant is a pageant of talent, personality, poise and intelligence, as well as beauty. “In no way, shape or form are these pageants exploiting the female,” Uschak said. “They are looking out for your best interests.” Uschak began competing for many reasons, one of which' to earn money to pay education. “I compete because I always wanted to perform,” she said. “I also compete to improve myself.” “I don’t want pageants to change me,” Uschak said. She doesn’t like others to consider her as Miss Central Pennsvlvania, but as Ann. Y BARASH APRIL 27 Benefits American Cancer Society II TO AVOID BANKRUPTCY CLOSING DOWN I DOVE GALLERIES, INC.

Analysts said the Chase cut was prompted by a sharp reduction in in terest rates that banks must pay to obtain funds to lend The Chase action bolstered the belief of government officials and economists that interest rates have peaked and are on the way down from record levels under the .Federal Reserve System’s “shock therapy” policy of tight money and tight credit to combat an 18.1 per cent annual inflation rate. Economists agree also the economy has entered the long-predicted recession. Charles Schultze, chairman of the President’s Council of Economic Advisers, buttressed that assessment yesterday. Schultze told the Senate Ap propriations Committee ‘‘without qualification” the recession had begun but said the administration expected the downturn to be mild.

Only a handful of small banks moved down to 19 percent with Chase yesterday. The drop in interest rates reflects in part the success of the Fed’s efforts to curb the consumer borrowing that hid contributed heavily to inflation. When its initial efforts failed tcWlmil borrowing by making it expensive, the Fed first squeezed the money supply by increasing reserve requirements, then ordered lenders to impose credit restrictions. Consumer credit started to dry up. Already living weeks ahead of JjJieir paychecks, many consumers were caught between inflation on the one hand and the new rules that restricted the use of credit cards and loans on the other. That, economists said, put the already ailing economy in a stall. “It may have been overkill,” said David Jones, economist for Aubrey Lanston Co. ♦ - With reduced access to credit, con sumers began cutting down on pur chases. 2^* Collegian wins Trendsetter Award ' By GEORGE HRENKO “Our circulation has increased 25 percent in the last Daily Collegian Staff Writer three years.
