■The Daily Collegian Monday, Nov. 3,1980 News briefs Another body found in Atlanta ATLANTA (UPI) - The body of another unidentified black youngster was found in Atlanta yesterday and authorities tried to determine if the death was related to the slayings of 10 other black children. One police of ficial said it was not. Fourteen black children have disappeared from the streets of south Atlanta in the past 15 months and 10 have been found, dead. However, when asked if the body was that of one of the four children still missing, Atlanta Police Sgt. F.P. James said, “Definitely not.” James, who is not a member of the special task force of state and local law officers investigating the baffling cases, declined to discuss the cause of death. A spokesman for the Fulton County coroner’s office said it would be im possible to positively identify the Earth tremor h YUKON, Okla. (UPI) - Residents were awakened before dawn yester day by a tremor that could have been the second earthquake to shake the community in two years. Yukon Police Chief Sam Ervin con firmed a “very small seismic event” occurred at 4:02 a.m. The'national earthquake center in Boulder, Colo., was investigating to determine if the tremor was an earthquake. Ervin said the center,will rate the tremor on the Richter scale if it is determined to be an actual earthquake. Affected were the Yukon, Mustang and Surrey Hills areas. Destroy Israel, BEIRUT, Lebanon (UPI) Ac tress Vanessa Redgrave said in an in terview published yesterday that Israel must be wiped out, and pledged never to abandon her support for Palestinians. “I don’t think that there is any room for a state of Israel,” said the British actress, a long-time supporter of the Palestine Liberation Organization. “The state of Israel was establish ed not in the interest of Jews or the Arabs or the Palestinians, but in the interest of imperialism, aggression, death, deportation, mass demolition of houses the very methods used by the fascist German regime against the Jews,” she told the magazine Monday Morning. “I believe that the state of Israel must be overthrown, there'.chn be tf<r 1 room for such a state,” Redgrave said. She said she hopes to make her first visit to the Jewish state “the day Greyhound employees strike PHOENIX, Ariz. (UPI) - Scat tered picketing across the country by Greyhound bus drivers, mechanics and terminal workers was 'reported yesterday despite llth-hour negotia tions to avert a nationwide strike at midnight. A news blackout was-imposed on the talks between representatives of Greyhound Lines and the Amalgamated Transit Union. The union had set a strike for mid night Friday but. agreed to extend it 48 hours. Despite the extension, picket lines were reported yesterday and Saturday at scattered locations in Ohio, Charleston, W.Va., and Erie. Members of the Amalgamated Transit Union carried white hand lettered picket signs at Greyhound Car costs increase in 1980 DETROIT (UPI) Average costs of owning and operating a new car rose a record 18 percent or 6.4 cents per mile in 1980, making it more cost ly to operate a typical subcompact than it did a luxury model eight years ago, a survey showed yesterday.

(UPI) - The Communist Workers Party held a memorial service yesterday for five members who were killed a year ago today in a gunfight with Ku Klux Klansmen and Nazis. The ceremony at Maple Wood Cemetery, where four of the five are buried, came a day before the first anniversary of the shootings on Nov. 3, 1979, during a CWP-sponsored “Death to the Klan” rally. The first trial stemming from the shootout is nearing a conclusion. A Guilford County Superior Court jury is expected to begin deliberations later this week on murder charges against four Klansmen and two Nazis. Police said there were no reports of child until an autopsy, is performed this morning. The body, dressed in blue pants, black tennis shoes and a dark-colored shirt, was identified as a black male in his early teens. A man walking along a bridge crossing the South River, an in dustrial area in south Atlanta, saw the child lying on some rocks near the Kudzu-lined riverbank beneath the bridge. Police believed the body was plac ed under the bridge sometime Satur day night or early yesterday morning. Police said they are investigating reports of a 13-year-old boy reported missing over the weekend. However, they would not release the missing youngster’s identity and said they had not determined the identity of the body found yesterday. its Oklahoma Residents said the jolt seemed twice as strong as an earthquake a year ago. Greg Aydt said his residence on Main Street is often disturbed by traf fic since it is on a busy street. “But as soon as I stood up, I knew this was no semi (truck),” Aydt said. He said the jolt lasted five to seven seconds. “It shook you pretty good. It was strong enough to rattle things off of shelves.” Aydt said last year’s quake registered 2.5, and yesterday’s will probably rate 4.5 or 5.0 on the Richter scale. Redgrave says Palestinian revolution wins, and I’m absolutely convinced that the day is not very far away.” Redgrave, who stared in a recent TV film about a concentration camp survivor, said she had received death threats from Zionist organizations in the United States but pledged con tinued support for the PLO. “I have got the example of the Palestinians in front of me. They are not afraid and neither am 1... I will never retreat never, never, never,” she said. The threats were triggered by Miss Redgrave’s role in “Playing for Time,’.’ based on the story of Auschwitz survivor Fania Fenelon. Redgrave said the campaign against her “has strengthened my* j belief that the only way the Jews of!! the world can press ahead is to strug gle with the Palestinian people for the establishment of a democratic, secular state in Palestine.” stations in Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Akron and Toledo. A union official in Cleveland said the walkout began at 2 a.m. Saturday, when Greyhound’s national contract expired in the eastern region. The of ficial, who declined to give his name, said the walkout was not a wildcat strike because “a wildcat strike only occurs when you have a contract, and we have no contract.” Negotiations in Phoenix resumed yesterday morning under the guidance of a federal mediator. Owen Jones, president of the Amalgamated Council of Greyhound Unions, representing 30 local unions across the country, said the union agreed to continue the talks at the re quest of the mediator. Compact models increased 7.8 cents or 25 percent to 39.8 cents, in termediates were up 6 cents or 16 per cent to 44 cents a mile, and standard sized cars rose 4.8 cents or 11 percent to 48.1 cents per mile. incidents or problems during the ceremony. The CWP also planned a private meeting after the ceremony at a com munity center about a half-mile from the scene of the shootings in a Greensboro housing project. A CWP-organized anti-Klan march and rally was beginning last Nov. 3 when a group of Klansmen and Nazis drove to the starting point. A fight broke out between the two factions, gunshots were fired and five com munists were killed. In the Morningside Homes com munity, where the shootings occur red, the Rev. Curtis Carrington said some residents have moved out since the incident. Hostages: 'the' election concern Candidates downplay issue; others point to its importance ~ WASHINGTON (AP) President Carter said last night the calendar would not affect the way he handles the hostage crisis, and Ronald Reagan sought crucial votes in the closing hours of a tense presidential cam paign that suddenly seemed dependent on terms set by the Iranian Parliament. Reagan, the Republican presidential nominee, said the Iranian hostage situation was too delicate for him to discuss. His running mate, George Bush, said it would not affect the outcome of tomorrow’s election. Campaigning in Marietta, Ohio, Reagan said, “This is not the time or the place for me to be addressing such a sensitive matter. “Obviously, all of us want this tragic situation resolved. That’s my deepest hope, and I know it’s yours.” Secretary of State Edmund S. Muskie said Carter did not regard the possible break of the year-old hostage stalemate as a political resource. Nonetheless, it became the dominant concern of campaigners for both sides, almost on the eve of an election the public opinion pollsters said was too close to forecast. Reagan appeared to hold the advantage in potential electoral votes, and his lieutenants had been forecasting victory. But one of them said in advance that a break in the hostage situation could change the odds. Carter broke off his own campaign early yesterday and flew home from Chicago after the Iranian Parlia ment the Majlis affirmed four conditions for the release of the hostages who have been captive since last Nov. 4. “It had been obvious'since the beginning of this latest phase that the president ought to return to Washington if there was a prospect that major decisions, would need to be made, simply because of the greater access THE PATHFINDER ALL BROOKS RUNNING SHOE 40% All Sizes Now In Stock the Pathfinde President Carter Monday and Tuesday At to his advisers and the advantages of communications afforded by the White House,” said Press Secretary Jody Powell. Carter met with his advisers to discuss possible ac ceptance of Iranian demands for two hours yesterday morning and conferred with them again in the after noon before the president addressed the nation on network television. The Iranian demands were for: a pledge that the United States will not interfere in Iranian affairs, release of $8 billion in Iranian assets frozen on Carter’s orders, withdrawal of U.S. legal claims against Iran, and return of the wealth of the late Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Muskie said the administration could not judge whether those terms were acceptable since they had not been spelled out in detail. Even if they are ac cepted, he said, the hostage release “is obviously going to be time-consuming” and probably could not come by Election Day. The secretary of state, appearing on ABC’s “Issues and Answers” program, did not rule out the release of spare military parts, bought by Iran but embargoed because of the hostage seizure, as part of an agreement for the release. Nor did he flatly reject a phased release, although he said the U.S. position remains that all the hostages should be released at once. Bush, former President Gerald R. Ford and former. Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger all criticized the idea of release in stages, and of sending spare military parts to Iran, now at war with Iraq, While his Republican allies took that line, Reagan said he would not discuss the situation. Vice President Walter F. Mondale picked up Carter’s campaign schedule, which was to have taken the presi dent from Chicago to Detroit and Philadelphia Monday, Nov. 3 and Tuesday, Nov. 4 ONLY Special Sale Hours 9:30 a.m. ‘9 p.m. 137 E. Beaver Ave. yesterday. . It wasn’t clear when, or whether, Carter would return to the road.. ,-j Mondale met with Carter and other top adminislra tion officials, then flew to Chicago and said the presi dent had canceled his campaigning to “manage.,ojir side” in hostage deliberations. “I am sure that you would agree with him that these developments require that he, especially, as president of the United States, be in the White House represen ting all of us today,” Mondale said. “. . . You should know that as he proceeds he will do nothing that cofn promises the honor of our country .. . the national security of our country, and he will leave no option unexplored which could ■ lead to the safe and early return of our fellow Americans.” Bush, on the CBS program “Face the Nation,” said the conditions set yesterday appear to “give us the grounds, for reasonable negotiations” to end _tjie hostage impasse. The vice presidential nominee said he would be sur prised if Carter agreed to a phased release. “I think they all ought to come home . . . and then we fulfill these terms,” Bush said. “I think they all ought to.be delivered home before we do anything to go forward with our end of the bargain.” . Ford, on NBC’s “Meet the Press” program, said, the shipment of O.S. military supplies to Iran would “would put us in the quagmire of the Middle East and it would be worse than the experiences we.had in Viet nam.” Kissinger said it would be a signal to the world that the United States can be held for ransom, and might encourage terrorism. Independent presidential candidate John B. Ander son said in Los Angeles the administration should spell out all terms of any hostage release deal before Ejec tion Day. Ronald Reagan Alumn Coleman By LYNNE JOHNSON Daily Collegian Staff Writer , Although State College photographer Bill Coleman calls the controversial pic ture of a nude woman posing at the Nit tdhy Lion statue a “tongue-in-cheek thing,” many Penn State alumni club members are not laughing. , Dave Pergrin, Wallingford, president , 'of the class of 1940, whose graduates presented the Lion to the University, ex pressed his disappointment about the 'photo. " “I have been greatly involved with ' fjlat little old statue all 14 tons of it,” ; he said recently. “I don’t think it should be used by anybody for financial gain.” Pergrin belongs to the Delaware Coun ty Penh State Club and is on the Board of Directors of the Delaware County Com monwealth Campus. He said the board members, who discussed the photo at their monthly meeting last week, were also disheartened. “Recent alumni are pretty happy that we have that symbol,” he said. “We’re all very proud of it. Everyone gathers around it to have their picture taken at graduation.' . | “With all that tradition, this attempt to | have a nude woman riding on the Lion, ,or whatever, really downgrades it.” " 'James H. Armstrong of Morton, chair man of the Delaware County club, said the photo disturbed him also. Armstrong received a proof of the picture last week with a letter from Coleman soliciting purchase orders. Coleman said he has sent similar let ters to about 20 club chairmen and chair women. An Bxlo photo is available for $2O and a 16x20 for $6O. HIGH EARNINGS !: FREE TRAVEL BENEFITS Travel and Marketing Co.

In the photo, the woman wears nothing but high-heel shoes. Leaning against the Lion, she can be seen at a sideways angle showing part of her left breast and her backside. Coleman said the photo was on display for four days when the landlord, who saw two 10-year-olds staring at it, asked him to remove it. In his letter to alumni, Coleman said: “Perhaps by this time you may have heard of the minor bruhaha (sic) in State College concerning the enclosed photo of our dear Nittany Lion and its’ (sic) friend. We thought you might enjoy own ing a fully matted 16x20- handmade photograph.” “Great as a Christmas gift! ” he added at the close of the letter sent to alumni. After receiving the letter, Armstrong wrote to The Daily Collegian, saying: “The sad . part is that, despite this desecration of this symbol of our best, this person is likely to sell too many of these ... pictures. I’ll do my best to make this unlikely to happen in Delaware County.” In a telephone interview last week, Armstrong said, “It’s a terrible thing. It’ll just lower Penn State’s status. “We might be old-fashioned, but. . .us old people respect the Lion,” Arm strong, a ’36 graduate, added. But Coleman, who originally denied any involvement with the photo but now says he was present when it was taken, expressed a different view. “I’d like to think that there are more important things in life than a relatively r Thei HiWay Pizza Sicilian Cut Pie Sho has it a 11... , If4s garnerst. “TWO-BIT FRIDAY” Sizzling Stromholi!

Armstrong, however, said he did not see the photo as a joke. “A joke is something funny,” he said. “This is something that could have serious consequences.” Armstrong said the incident could lead to more nude photography on campus. “Before long we could have a whole nude chorus on the steps of Eisenhower Auditorium,” he said. Another alumnus did find the photo amusing, but not for reasons given by Coleman. Frank R. Scheid, a ’3l alumnus living in Reading, said he received a proof and showed it to Berks County chapter Penn Staters at a recent meeting. 1 “They thought it was a laugh until they heard the price,” he said, “then it reached the point of absurdity.” “I can’t imagine anyone paying the $2O to $6O for the picture,” he said. “To me it was the height of expectation. The whole idea was ridiculous.” Geraldine M. Kester; Altoona, chair man of the Blair County Women’s Penn State Club, reacted somewhat different ly to Coleman’s price. “Well, it’s too bad they are so expen sive,” she said. “If they were cheap enough, I would buy them all and get rid of them.” Although she did not receive a letter from Coleman, Kester said the photo would undoubtedly be a “no-no” for the women in her chapter, which has about a 60 percent “older” membership: Kester said she is unhappy about the photo because she said it exploited women, and said she thinks most of the WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH... TO BE 0 U-206 A paid political announcement by The Students (or Anderson Berks County chapter will agree when they consider it at their next board meeting. “Who knows, maybe you’ll see us down there soon,” she added. Another alumnus said he thought the photo is disrespectful to women. “It was sort of a trespass,” said Charles W. Collom, Lancaster County Penn State Club chairman. “My reac tion was that it was degrading to women, degrading to the shrine, and who needs it really? “I could see how you could get a pretty good laugh out of it. But I certainly wouldn’t frame it or carry it around to help sell it.” ' But not everyone criticized Coleman. William A. Trach, Allentown, chair man of the Lehigh County Penn State Club, said: “I’m not the kind of person to say that’s desecrating a shrine. “The University is taking a dim view of it which I find rather childish.” In fact, Trach said he might consider buy ing a photo if he can see the other poses that Coleman has advertised. The photographer should also consider other locations on campus, Trach said. He offered the Old Main Tower or in front of the Obelisk as possibilities. But Coleman is already one step ahead. He said as soon as his model returns from a trip to Europe, he and friends will organize similar photo sessions. ‘ ‘We were just having fun with it, ” Col eman said, referring to the Nittany Lion picture. “And we are going to have some more fun. We’ll be doing some more of her around here ... not necessarily on campus, but possibly.” excuse m, I'M LATE TOR. My NEW Toft. E-Systems continues the tradition of the world’s great problem solvers.
