(AP) Stalled contract negotiations and the prospect of a long strike may lure some districts of the United Mine Workers to settle with a newly formed association of independent coal operators, a union official said yesterday. The group, the Unionized Coal Employers Association, will hold its first meeting in Charleston on Wednesday. Organizer Jack Henry said the group has offered to. nego tiate its own contract with the UMW if ' the union fails to reach an agreement soon with the Bituminous Coal Operators Association, the group that now bargains for the industry.

By The Associated Press Thousands of demonstrators gathered at rallies in New York, Los Angeles and Eugene, Ore., Saturday to register their opposition to United States' policy in El Salvador. Chanting "No Draft, No War, U.S. out of El Salvador!" four groups of banner waving marchers converged at Bryant Park in New York City, then marched across town to United Nations headquar ters to listen to several speakers, includ ing Rep. Ted Weiss, D-N.Y:, former Rep. Bella Abzug, and musicians Pete Seeger and Richie Havens. Meanwhile, more than 2,000 people including actors Ed Asner and Mike Farrell paraded and demonstrated peacefully in Los Angeles, and another 3,000 marched and rallied in Eugene. Rebecca Traver, a spokeswoman for the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador, said several speakers at the Los Angeles rally de nounced the Reagan administration for continuing to send military aid to the government of El Salvador.

Weiss, who served as master of cere monies for the rally, told the New York crowd, "We are here today to say our policy is a wrong policy and it's opposed by the Amercan people. "Some of us believe the problems in El Salvador have been orchestrated by the Reagan administration to justify its bud get cuts and military spending," Weiss continued. He said President Reagan was violat ing the War Powers Act by sending military adviseis to El Salvador, and said Congress is taking steps to prevent further U.S. military action in the small Central American country. Abzug drew applause by saying, "The people who want us to go into El Salvador are the same crazies who got us in Vietnam:" The Communist Workers Party, the Marxist-Lenin Party, the War Resisters League and several other groups were represented in the crowd, with an unex pected guest, former Yippie leader Abbie Hoffman. , r;eor UPI wlteplwto News briefs Florida sees meteor shower MIAMI (AP) A specticular meteor shower lit up the early morn ing Florida sky yesterday in a blue flash visible from the Keys to the Panhandle.

Lebanon state radio in Beirut, which reported one man killed and 19 wounded when a shell struck the Abu Jala cafe, said the Israeli backed rightist Christian militias from the "Free Lebanon" enclave in southern Lebanon were responsible for the shelling.

(AP) Five workers at the Tennessee Val ley Authority's Sequoyah nuclear power plant were burned yesterday by non-radioactive steam that leaked during tests, a TVA spokes man said. Spokesman Alan Carmichael said no nuclear fuel had been loaded in Unit 2, where the leak occurred, and there was no danger of radiation. "They were disassembling a valve on a steam line and had closed others upstream," Carmichael said. "But when they started taking the valve apart, it began releasing steam and five men were burned." Pay hikes not needed, Rep. says WASHINGTON (AP) Figures that indicate the armed forces are improving their recruiting and re enlistment rates show that there is no need for a big boost in military pay that the Reagan administration is seeking, Rep. Les Aspin, D-Wis., said yesterday. In a statement, Aspin cited statis tics for the first five months of the current fiscal year, which began Oct. 1, showing that the services attained 101.2 percent of their com bined enlistment target and 119 per cent of their goal for recruitment of persons with prior military service. He said the 11.7 percent across the-board pay increase enacted last fall along with extra payments for special skills and expenses also has Gerald Mays of the Civil Defense warning center said the official ex planation was a meteor shower, which he said was reported to the center at 12:59 a.m. yesterday and apparently was seen by people as far south as the Florida Keys and as far north as Panama City.

The intelligence level of recruits, as measured by high school educa tion and mental tests, also has climbed, Aspin said. The administration is calling for a 5.3 percent pay raise effective July 1 and a 9.1 percent boost on Oct. 1, but Aspin said he thought the July in crease could safely be foregone. Pentagon officials have said the improved manpower statistics are inconclusive and that wll of the raises are needed to narrow a gap between military and civilian pay that widened over the past decade. Tips on resume writing By LAURA BIDDLE Daily Collegian Staff Writer • As graduation approaches, many seniors are beginning to feel the pressures of getting a job. But perhaPs the most important step in trying to land a job is preparation of a resume 11 and cover letter. UPI wlrephoto "A resume is a summary of yOur experiences and is designed to create enough interest so that the employer will grant you an interview," 'Mary Surridge, a counselor at the Career Development and Placement Center, said. A student should understand his career goals when writing a resume. She said there is no right or wrong way to write a resume as long as it reflects the best parts of you. Name, address and telephone number should head the top of the paper , "Personal statistics such as marital status and age could be included only if it is helpfuland,couldn't be used to discriminate against you," Surridge said. Next is usually the career objective. She said the statement should not be too broad, vague or overly specific and restrictive enough to limit job opportunities. "Your goals should reflect what you want to be doing on the job and what type of organization you want to work for," Surridge said. "A student could include educational experiences next," she said, "but you don't need to include high school or your grade point average if it isn't above a 3.0." Degree, major, college and year of graduation, Dean's List, independent studies or courses related to area of study should be included, she said. Every sentence describing your, work or professional experi ence should include action verbs such as managed, organized m supervised, Surridge said "Voluntary work, practicums, internships, and payed or part-time. work should be described. Experiences listed should show your initiative, willingness to work and development of reliable skills." For example, if someone worked in a restaurant to finance his education it is good to include that, she said. It is also beneficial to stress any skills acquired and to use specific numbers, such as "I supervised 19 employees." Specific labels are beneficial to include. If a student was a rush chairman for a fraternity, all of the recruitment, planning and promotion skills used should be emphasized, she said. Other experiences to emphasize would be military, honors 'or awards, publications, extracurricular activities and profes sional affiliations, Surridge said. - "If you choose to include references decide on at least three people," she said. "Professors or former employers are good references. "You should decide how to label different sections and in what order to put them that will best reflect you." For YOU at Red Ros Cotillion C ' M liP Surridge said some more tips are: e Review the resume and delete negative items. • Prepare a rough draft that shows rather than tells what you have done. • Don't be tacky by including pictures of yourself, adver tising gimmicks or fancy lettering. ... • Be sure the layout calls attention to your most positive features. e Try. to keep it to one page so the employer can skim the resume • Ask at least threepeople to proofread the rough draft and final copy. • Neatly, type the final draft Resumes should be accompanied by a cover letter. Surridge said the first paragraph should capture the employer's atten tion and tell why a student is writing to the employer. "The body should cite relevant examples of why your skills and background would be beneficial to the employer," she said. "Call attention to important experience and refer to the enclosed copy of the resume." The last paragraph should be a call to action. She said to ask employers for additional information, tell employers you will contact them, or ask them to contact you. Do not make copies of. cover letters because they should be individually addressed. The Career Development and Placement Center offers weekly seminars on resume writing fifth period Tuesdays and fourth period Thursdays in 205 Boucke. Business Writing 119 offers two weeks of instruction on resume writing during the 10- week course, she said. John Buck, assistant professor of English, said, "Resumes should reflect a consistent, coherent life of conscious choice. Not something you just fell into. "Resume services make all students look the same,", he said. 2>*no cover!

"There's still the assumption on a lot of people's parts that just a certain type of person gets VD, and that's just not true," said Cheryl Jorgensen, graduate coordinator, peer contra ception education program. Jorgensen said anyone who is sex ually active with more than one part ner can contract the diseases, and the stigmas come out of the traditional morality that questions whether being sexually active with more than one person is acceptable. Disease prevention is tied directly into the stigmas, in that partners must dismiss the stigmas attached to the diseases and communicate openly by telling each other if the possibility exists of contracting a disease, Man del said. Jorgensen said, "Students certainly don't put the moral implications on it (contracting VD) that they used to, students may be reluctant to talk about it." Jorgensen said while people cannot be physically forced to discuss with their . partners the possibility of dis ease contraction, they must be en couraged to adding that they have a personal, as well as social, responsibi lity. Many sexually: transmitable dis eases are present at the University, with herpes simplex remaining one of the most prevelant and dangerous, Jorgensen said. Herpes is a viral infection charac terized by small clusters of blisters found in the lower extremities of the body. The herpes simplex virus has no known cure and can remain dormant THE PENN STATE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION AND THE COLLEGE OF ARTS & ARCHITECTURE GERALD W.

Several factors can lead to an out break of the disease, Jorgensen said, including poor eating habits and stress. According to a publication by the Pennsylvania Department of Health, several complications can arise from contracting herpes. Women with the disease show an increased rate of cervical cancer. An additional risk to pregnant women is present if the herpes' blisters are present at the 'There's still the assumption on a lot of people's parts that just a certain type of person gets V.

"The seriousness of the disease is not to be put down," Mandel said. Treatment of the disease is symp tomatic, with the symptoms of the disease being treated to make the patient more comfortable Trying to help people who have contracted herpes live with the dis ease is a non-profit organization, the American Social Health Association. The association publicizes "The Help er" a magazine containing informa tion, tips, and suggestions for people affected by herpes, Mandel said. Another sexually transmitable dis ease seen fairly regularly at the Uni versity, contracted and carried by males but effecting women and chil dren, is Non-Gonococcal Urethritis, Jorgensen said. The main symptom of NGU, a bac terial infection treated by antibiotics, is a clear or milky discharge from the male.

The incidence of Sud den Infant Death Syndrome, or crib death, has also been linked to NGU, Jorgensen said. • Doctor Harry McDermott, asociate director and affiliate of the lecture health center, said Ritenour sees about two cases of herpes in males and eight to nine cases of NGU each week. Genevra Fleagle, staff physician at Ritenour, said female cases of herpes occur seasonally, with many seen in some months and none seen for anoth er month or two. Other common sexually transmita ble diseases include syphilis and gon orrhea which are both caused by bacteria, with syphilis resulting from a certain strain of bacteria called a spirochete. Syphilis is characterized by a chan cre sore, found anywhere on the body, with gonorrhea being identifiable by a discharge in females and very often no symptoms in males. Complications for adults resulting from these diseases include brain damage, insanity, and death with syphilis; sterility, arthritis and blind ness with gonorrhea. With children complications include central nervous system damage with syphilis, and blindness with gonorrhea. "They (the diseases) have been and continue to be epidemics," Mandel said, however, "They can be con trolled."
