RAMBOUILLET, France (UPI)
Militant Jewish youths armed with
knives and clubs surrounded and at
tacked members of a neo-Facist
group yesterday,,injuring the head of
the organization and one of his
followers.
It was the second violent outbreak
aimed at ultra-rightists following the
Oct. 3 bombing outside a Paris
synagogue that killed four people and
sparked a national outcry over a re
cent wave of attacks against Jews.
Police said Marc Fredriksen, head
of the neo-Facist European Na
tionalist Organization (FNE), was
stabbed in the leg. He and another
member of the group were taken to a
hospital for treatment.
The attack occurred when a group

Reagan leads Carter, polls say
By United Press International
Polls and political campaign aides
said yesterday that with just over
three weeks to go before the Nov. 4
election, Ronald Reagan is leading
the presidential race, President
Carter runs a fairly close second and
independent. John B. Anderson is far
behind.
But Anderson said it is Carter who
is "out of it" and will become the
spoiler in this election, and that he,
himself, has an excellent chance to
win when the voters must actually
mark their ballots.
Neither Carter nor Reagan is
reading Anderson's script. Nor are
the takers of a new batch of statewide
polls and national surveys published
over.the weekend.
White House press secretary Jody
Powell -said he thinks Carter is

The Miami Herald reported yester
day that a 500-year-old tax report
recently found in Spain suggests the
sunken wreck could be the Pinta, one
of the three ships in the Italian ex
plorer's expedition to the New World
in 1492.
The ship, which lies 30 feet below
the surface, was discovered in 1977 by
Key West treasure hunters Olin Frick
and John Gasque while searching the
waters off the Caicos Bank for ships
to salvage.
Evidence is thin, but an iron cannon
removed from the wreck appears to
be the right age, and a lead cannon
ball is vintage 15th-century, the
Herald said. Spanish archives even

attack.
"Ten days after the Rue Copernic

La Stampa said Bani-Sadr met with

only lessen its damage.

Stuart Spencer, Ronald Reagan's
top campaign strategist, said Reagan
has more options for changing cam

Carter does.
"We have the West but he doesn't

Next month, the two treasure

William R. Reilly.
Not all archeologists are thrilled at
the prospect of treasure hunters pick

George Bass of Texas A&M Univer

cheology said if the historical site
were on land, the government would
not allow the area to be salvaged for
profit.
"We would never think of allowing
someone to tear down Mount Vernon

Bass said. "I hope they are prepared

Hundreds trapped in Algerian city
New tremors hamper aid workers
AL ASNAM, Algeria ( AP) New
earth tremors shook the ruined buildings
of Al Asnam on yesterday, raising fears
for the safety of rescuers digging fran
tically through debris to reach hundreds
of victims still showing signs of life 48
hours after an earthquake devastated
the city.
The president of the Red Crescent
relief organization, Mouloud Belaouane,
said the death toll from the Friday quake
could well excerd his earlier estimate of
20,000.
A big international rescue and relief
operation was in motion and in every ci
ty Algerians set up donation points for
food and supplies. Thousands lined up at
hospitals and first-aid centers to donate
blood so many that Algiers had to call
a temporary halt to donations there
because it could not handle them all.

The rescue continued by floodlight
throughout the night in this city located
on a fault line 150 miles east of Algiers.
Thousands of survivors moved to the
outskirts of the city and slept in im
provised camps or in the open. Only the
luckier ones had army tents.
Outlying villages, particularly in the
Dahra mountain chain between Al
Asnam and the sea, were isolated by
landslides and broken bridges. There
were fears of heavy casualties in the
rural areas.
The government said 25 percent of the
buildings in Al Asnam were destroyed
and a further 50 percent "more or less
seriously damaged."

Female body builders give demonstration
By ELAINE WETMORE
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Amid catcalls and jeers, three nationally acclaim
ed female body builders entertained a bo(sterous
crowd at Gatsby's Friday night..
In an hour-long demonstration, Betsy Barber, 27,
Challis Hogwood; 26, and Elise Argue, 27, flexed and
posed their well-toned, bikini-clad bodies before an
appreciative audience.
The bodj building demonstration began at 11 p.m.
with the women performing a mock calisthenics
routine, complete with barbells. "Gonna Fly Now,"
the theme from "Rocky," accompanied their jump
ing jacks and toe touches.
The group next posed in bathing suits, bringing
most of the crowd to its feet. Many who were strain
: ing to 'see the stage stood on tables and chairs to get a
better view.
During the demonstration, each woman also per
formed' her own posing routine:

A 1976 Penn State graduate, she has been lifting
for eight years. As a representative of the Scandina

high school and was a member of the men's power

Challis Hogwood of Virginia Beach, Va., chose
classical music as her accompaniment. She has been
lifting for four months and represents the Nautilus
Fitness Center. Recently, she placed fourth in the
Miss Tidewater Contest in Virginia Beach.
Elise Argue, also a representative of the Scan

been lifting weights for two years. Argue, who is also
from Virginia Beach, placed fifth in the Miss

The women's routines were acknowledged with
whistles and catcalls, which evoked a negative
response from the performers.

"I think that you would welcome us a little better
that you did," she said. "Women's body building is
not burlesque and it is not striptease. It is a sport."
Addressing the catcallers specifically, Barber
said,"l can probably bench and squat more than
you."
To give the audience an idea of what bodybuilding
is all about and its history, Barber, Hogwood and
Argue also performed skits representing women
body builders in the past few decades.
"Body builders are the healthiest people in the
world," Barber said later in an interview. "We eat
the right foods and we take the right supplements."
Barber also said famous actresses like Marilyn
Monroe were women body builders. She said body
building may actually delay the aging process 15
years.
"Women body building is like an atomic bomb, it's
exploding," Barber said. She said more and more
women are realizing that weight lifting can only
enhance their bodies.
Games raise $3OO for
hunger relief programs
Thirteen soccer teams, composed of
students and members of the State Col

$3OO this weekend to aid world hunger
relief programs.
The benefit was sponsored by the
University chapter of Bread for the
World, a student lobby working to
reduce world hunger problems.
The money will be donated to Chris
tian Relief on Overseas Policy, which
distributes money to various hunger
relief groups, said Tricia Gabany, presi
dent of Bread for the World.
"CROP will see to it that the money is
used for developmental assistance for
hunger relief, such as supplying seeds,
tools and agricultural training to
disaster relief and refugee support
groups," Gabany said. "The main

reason for giving the money to CROP is
that it will make sure that most of the
funds go directly to people needing aid."
Gabany said each team contributed at
least $2O for entrance fees, which it rais
ed either by being sponsored or by mak
ing a flat payment. Additional sponsors
and donations were accepted throughout
the benefit, she said.
Although attendance at the matches
was low, Gabany said she thought the
benefit was a success.
"I'm very pleased with the response
and I feel very good about how things:
went," she said.
Edward Marcinkiewicz (7th
psychology), a member of Bread for the
World, said all members of the group
helped out with the benefit.
