Causes of cancer are vaned
By JOSEPH KAYS
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Paul Todd, professor of biophysics,
‘ discussed the
possibility of everything from coffee to stress as the
cause of cancer at a Health Expo 'Bl forum last night.
"Eighty percent of cancers can now be explained on
the basis of some environmental agent," Todd said,
"and if you can identify that agent, you're in the
business of preventing cancer "
He showed a number of advertisements and photos
which emphasized the many different ways by which a
person can contract cancer. These included a cigarette
ad, a coffee ad and pictures of smoke billowing out of
smokestacks.
"It is possible," Todd said, "to take measures at the

Gymnastics training as a way of devel
oping the "whole athlete" was demon
strated in a presentation by students and
teachers from the Nittany Gymnastics
School last night as part of Health Expo
'Bl.
"What we're trying to do is develop the
whole (athlete)," said Ed Isabelle, own
er of the school.
Isabelle, who coaches the most ad
vanced, or Class 1 team, described the
whole athlete as a person who has the
speed, strength, flexibility, endurance
and kinesthetic awareness which are
developed through gymnastics.
"The average kid is going to have a
hard time competing against these ath
letes no matter what (type of competi
tion) it is," he said.

Four people were killed and about 35 were
injured when an airplane crashed in East Halls
yesterday . . . well, not really
Johnston Quad was the scene of a simulated
disaster last night as part of Health Expo 'Bl.
Emergency units from University Health Serv
ices, Alpha Fire Company and other Centre
County fire companies participated in the demon
stration titled "Community Preparedness for the
Unexpected." _ _
The "victims" started taking their positions
around the wrecked fuselage of the airplane at
about 6:15 p.m. The wreckage was of a light
aircraft that crashed into one of the surrounding
mountains a few years ago, said Derek Eve,
student coordinator for University Ambulance
Services.
At 6:30 p.m., the simulation began when smoke
bombs were lit around the fuselage and a
"bystander" called University Police Services.
The 40 victims were aided by about 30 bystand
ers who had first aid training and acted as first
respondents to the accident.
A Police Services car arrived and reported over
the monitor, "An aircraft crash in Johnston Quad,
East Halls. Dispatch all units."
Soon afterward, more police arrived, followed
by a University ambulance. Emergency Medical
.Technicians began to treat priority patients and
'relieved the first aiders for crowd control.
The doctor on duty in the emergency room at
Ritenour came with the first ambulance to set up
a command post.

Students in classes ranging from young
beginners to older, more accomplished
gymnasts demonstrated various warm
up exercises and "tricks," such as hand
springs, walkovers and flips.
The differences in the levels of compe
tition were demonstrated by perfor
mances of the students.
"The difference is the polish, the confi
dence and the timing," Isabelle said.
Another difference, he said, is the risk
involved. There is risk at every level, but
as the levels increase so do the risks.
The amount of time the student spends
working, the attention he or she receives
and the competition also increase with
each level, he said.

personal level to either prevent cancers from devel
oping and becoming mortally severe or to even prevent
any cancers from developing at all."
Todd said a great deal of money is spent on cancer
research in the fields of treatment and cure, but he said,
"we are not meeting our obligations to the world to
undertake measures to prevent cancer.
"One of the surest ways to get lung cancer is to
smoke," Todd said.
Todd said the burning of wood, oil and coal produces a
family of substances called hydrocarbons, which are
compounds of hydrogen and carbon. When people
breathe these compounds, the body treats them as a
very special toxic substance and the liver releases
enzymes that break these substances into materials
Although this was a simulation, the units were
dispatched as if it were the real thing, said
Richard Flinn, the program announcer. All emer
gency units in the area were warned that the
simulation would take place.
Some victims were made up to look like casual
ties. The scene of mangled hands, protruding
intestines and gouged eyes was added to by
screams like, "My leg! My leg!"
'The hospital needs to

Many of the victims volunteered for the simula
tion in order to learn how an emergency operation
works.
Lisa Rider, an employee at University Health
Services, said, "The hospital needs to learn to
deal with something like this."

Ellen M. Coccagna, teaches children
basic skills they need before they move
to the next level. The children are taught
how to jump, land and fall. They practice
on mats, a springboard and a low bal
ance beam.
To demonstrate a balancing excercise,
the children crawled and then walked up
an inclined beam.
"We keep the apparatus low until the
child is capable of staying on," Coccagna
said.
Next, a team consisting of 6- to 11-year
olds demonstrated the second level of
training
Ellie Daily, director of the school and
coach of the Class 3 team, directed the
students through various exercises and
helped or spotted them during the more
difficult moves.
The students did forward rolls, back
she did not like being dead. "I don't think I want to
go through being dead again. It was cold, but I
enjoyed doing this."
Many of the volunteers were from - the Student
Nurses Association, which had asked its members
toparticipate, Diane Wetzel (4th-nursing) said.
"It is worth it in order for these people to 'get
training. They will be able to see where they need
work," said Wetzel, a spinal injury victim.
Michele Schaaf (4th-nursing), a broken arm
victim, said she volunteered because she wanted
the experience
"I feel it is important in my field to understand
what these victims go through," she said.
Lorraine Melrick (11th-nursing), who had a
broken neck, said, "I thought it would be fun. I
also wanted to ride in the ambulance."
The command and triage center, where pa
tients were taken for advanced life support and
forwarding to Ritenour or Centre Community
Hospital, was set up under a walkway in front of
Pennypacker Hall.
Also at the triage center, Cheryl Wonderly, of
Police Services, took
,the names of victims and
tried to get an idea of what happened.
"Everything was very well effectuated," she
said. "The EMTs evaluate everyone and find out
who needs treatment first."
Victims were given colored cards by members
of the University Ambulance Service in order of
priority. Red meant critical. Yellow was for less
critical victims. Green was for minor injuries and
gray cards were placed on those who were
"dead."

that are known to cause mutations, he said.
Some scientists believe it is the production of these
mutations which underlie the develpment of cancer.
"By exposing yourself to fewer; hydrocarbons, most of
which are in smoke," Todd said, "you can reduce the
risk of getting lung, liver and bladder cancer."
On the subject of coffee causing cancer, Todd said a
survey found a moderate, but not striking, correlation
between coffee and cancer of the pancreas, which is the
fourth most deadly cancer in the United States because
it is the least curable.
Laboratory research was conducted to suggest that
saccharin was cancerous, Todd said, but there was no
epidemiological evidence to prove it.

nior scientist of Conoco, said last shows an increase in acid rain, even

"In Los Angeles there are no coal
burning plants, but there is a quite
substantial pH of 4.2 or 4.3," Hamil
ton said in a speech presented by the
Mining Engineering Society. (Any
thing under 5.6 is considered acid
rain.)
There are dozens of other natural,
causes for acid rain, and most of the;
sulfur oxides and nitric oxides are
natural, Hamilton said.
He said the reason most people
think that burning coal is the main
source of acid rain is twofold.
The two causes of the problem are,
first, a misunderstanding of the is
sue because there is a lot of "gar
bage" written about the subject and,
second, "tight, strict, stringent stan
dards that are too low," Hamilton
said.

As it got darker (and colder), flood lights and

Clay Gilham, an observing paramedic from the

A basic misconception, which has
been used by the Council for Envi
ronmental Quality, the Environmen
tal Protection Agency and Professor
Gene Likeng at Cornell, is that acid
rain has only been discovered since
1950, Hamilton said.
However, a pH factor of 4.0 was
found in Paris in 1852, which indi
cates factors found in acid rain were

many causes
in areas that have burned coal since
1920, he said.
In response to people who claim
that acid rain has negative environ
mental effects, Hamilton said; there
is "no evidence of present harm. In
fact, the growth of forests is actually
enhanced by acid rain in some cases
because of the nitrates and sulfates
in it."
The government has also been at
fault in misleading the public, he
said. An example that Hamilton
used was an April 1975 statement by
Sen. Edmund Muskie who said "sul
fides and carbon monoxide were the
two most lethal pollutants of the
'7os," a statement which was dis
missed by the government a few
years later.
Statements like this led to the
enforcement of too stringent stan
dards, he said.
For example, in 1971 the govern
ment set the standard for sulfur
oxides at 0.03 parts per million when
most industrial workers are exposed
to about 0.05 ppm daily, Hamilton
said.
He also said the pH standard
should be 5.0 instead of 5.6.
he said. "Some of the patients who haven't been
tagged critical should be moved before hypother
mia sets in."
Scott Jones, also a paramedic from Philips
burg, said, "I think they have done a pretty good
job on the whole. The interrelationships between
the units haVe come along very well."
When units of the Alpha Fire Company arrived
on the scene, they put out the "fire." They then ,
extricated two people who were trapped in the 4 v
aircraft by cutting away part of the fuselage.
Around 8 p.m., the scene of the demonstration
was beginning to calm down as the last and least
serious victims were being transported in police
cars to Ritenour.
David J. Lindstrom, coordinator of Emergenct,
Medical Services at the University, said, "It's
gone real well. There are still a couple of rough _
edges. Until we have really practiced this, you do
not know what is going to happen:y
At Ritenour, Dr. Hargleroad said, "We had
things here set up pretty well, but while were
going through the simulation, we had a couple())
real casualties come in."
These students were given priority over the
simulation victims, he said.
Tom Zyroll,, administrator for operations at
Centre Community Hospital, said there were no
complications with real patients during the drill
and it went fairly smoothly despite some.prob
lems.
"Initially there was some confusion, but that
probably originated out at the scene," he said.
"After that, everything went rather well: There
were not many delays."

Women with problem pregnancies have options
By MEG WIEDMANN
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
There was a time when the number one solution
for a problem pregnancy was suicide, a United
Methodist Minister said yesterday.
"I began my counseling at a time when the
number one choice for solving problem pregnan
cies was suicide," Rev. Ned E. Weller said at a
Health Expo 'Bl forum on alternatives to problem
pregnancy.
Rev. Weller, a campus minister with the United
Ministry at the University, counsels pregnant
woman of'all ages and backgrounds.
"They may be 12 and they may be 45. I attempt
to be compassionate, understanding and helpful,"
he said.
Problem drinkers affect other people
By Becky Olson
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
If you think someone you know is an
abusive drinker, he or she might not have
a problem . . . but you do, said John
Kiernan, campus coordinator for the
Total Alcohol Awareness Program at
Penn State.
About one person out of every nine has
an abusive drinking problem, Kiernan
said, but six others are affected by that
.one person, so actually, seven people out
of every nine has a drinking problem.
"Defining alcoholism isn't simple,"
Kiernan said, "because there is a differ
ence between alcohol abuse and a few
weekend overindulgences."

Senate votes to deregulate phone industry
By NORMAN BLACK
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON "(AP) A bill designed to deregulate
the telephone industry and spur competition for the
American Telephone & Telegraph Co. was approved 90-
4 yesterday by the Senate.
The bill gained final passage after more than five
years of work and four days of debate. It now goes to the
House, where leaders have said they intend to complete
action on a similar bill early next year.
If the bill becomes law, it will mark the first compre
hensive rewrite of the Communications. Act since the
law was adopted in 1934
"By freeing the industry from unnecessary and
stifling government controls, this bill will greatly en
hance competition within the telecommunications field
and encourage creativity and productivity," said
Sen. Robert Packwood, the bill's sponsor.
"The Senate's action today was a major step toward
what can be landmark legislation," agreed Commerce
Secretary Malcolm Baldrige.
The major premise underlying the Senate bill is that
Competition can occur in most areas of the telecommu
nications industry without breaking up AT&T, as a
pending antitrust suit seeks. Instead, AT&T would be
allowed to enter new areas such as data processing as
long as it created a new subsidiary with its own books,
employees and facilities.
Only basic local telephone service is viewed by the bill
as a monopoly, although AT&T's basic long-distance
service will continue to be regulated. Regulations will
be dropped or will not be imposed, however, in the areas
of telephone equipment, information services and en
hanced services like data processing via telephone
lines.
While the bill would have a significant effect on AT&T

Weller explained why he referred to these

opposed to "unwanted" pregnancies.
"It is not that they are unwanted, it's that it is a
problem at this point in time," he said.
He also explained the common misconceptio►.
that problem pregnancies should not exist in
today's society.
"The use of contraceptives has caused most or
many Americans to believe that problem preg
nancies should not occur.
"You must keep in mind the failure rate and
everything fails,"' Weller said.
He dismissed the rhythm method as being old

Kiernan suggested five tips towards
responsible drinking: drink ohly when
relaxed and feeling well, so you don't
form a habit of drinking to solve your
problems; eat before and while drinking,
to absorb the alcohol and to sIoNV down
the rate of absorption; sip slowly, or your
system will be jolted, creating stress;
dilute drinks to slowdown the absorption
rate; and keep your blood level low by
knowing how much you can drink.respon

and the companies that would face it as a competitor, it
would ultimately also have a profound effect on Ameri
can consumers.
Sometime between two and four years after enact
ment, consumers would be unable to turn to AT&T's
local Bell System company for new telephone equip
ment. The local companies will offer only service;
equipment will have to be bought or leased from AT&T's
new subsidiary or from competing manufacturers. The
expectation is that such competition will lower the cost
of phone equipmnt.
'By freeing the industry from

—Sen. Robert Packwood,

Consumers could also find their local rates rising and

"People who use the rhythm method are called
parents," he said.
Weller discussed the solutions often considered
and problems accompanying them.
Marriage as a solution is not always feasible.
"You suggest marriage and immediately you
run into trouble," he said.
Often the father of the unborn child will say that
his parents will stop supporting his education if he
marries, he said. But the prospective mother's
parents, especially her father, will not allow her
to marry someone who cannot support her in
style.
"Parents don't handle the idea of marriage too
well. They like to select the spouse, or if not
select, at least to approve," Weller said.

drinking.
"Abusive drinking causes pain, and
sometimes harm, to family, friends and

distance calls via AT&T within state borders a
function now performed by state regulators. The rates
for for such intrastate' calls will be made uniform with
those for interstate calls.'
Regulation of AT&T's rates will continue, though the
bill let the FCC end such regulation if it determines
effective competition has developed. In the meantime,
long-distance competitors like MCI Communications
and satellite and microwave radio companies will be
free to raise and lower their rates..'
AT&T will also be freed to create another new
subsidiary to deliver electronic news and information to
the home. It won't be able to originate or control the
content, but merely could offer transmission capability.
AT&T will also be banned from entering the cable TV
and burglar and smoke alarm businesses, although it
can offer directory listings in electronic form.
The primary issue before the Senate before yester
day's final vote was whether sufficient limits had been
clamped on AT&T to prevent it from subsidizing its
unregulated subsidiary
Critics contended such requirements as separate
books and employees were inadequate to prevent a firm
the size of AT&T the world's largest from dominat
ing any area it chose to enter.
Despite such concerns, expressed most vocally by
Sen. Ernest F. Holings, D-S.C., the bill finally won
approval, thanks to suppprt by the Reagan administra
tion, AT&T'g'grudgiiig aciproval of the bill and Pack
wood's acceptance of several compromises.
Only three senators joined Hollings in voting against
it, including Sens. Alan' Cranston, D-Calif.; Gary Hart,
D-Colo., and Dennis DeConcini, D-Ariz.
Sens. Lloyd Bentsen, D-Texas; Daniel K. Inouye, D-
Hawaii ; John Melcher, D-Mont.; Robert T. Stafford, R-
Vt.; John Tower, R-Texas, and Malcolm Wallop, R-

Another solution which is becoming more ac

"At one time single parenthood was not an
option, but it is today," he said.
Many women want their children, but are
unable to keep them because of financial or
scholastic reasons.
Some woman no longer have the choice of
whether to have the baby because they have
waited too long to have a choice. These situations
open up the options of adoption and foster care.
"I wish more people would think seriously
about single parenthood," he said.
Abortion as an alternative was also mentioned
by Weller. He said he was disappointed that many

Number of people with gonorrhea
has reached 'epidemic proportions'
By BRIAN E. BOWERS
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
One out of every four Americans
between 15 and 30 of age has gonor
rhea, said a representative from the
Pennsylvania Department of Health
at Health Expo 'Bl yesterday.
"We are talking about something
that has grown to epidemic propor
tions," Pennie Cupp Vanderlin said
at the program titled "Update on
Sexually Transmitted Infections."
"The tragic thing about it is most
people don't even know they have
it," she said.
Many women who have the dis
ease may not show any symptoms
and contrary to what many people
believe, many men do not show any
symptom either.
Even many doctors think men who
have gonorrhea must show some
symptoms, she said. However, about
25 percent of the male cases are
asymptomatic.
Although many doctors think they
will embarrass their patients if they
suggest screening for gonorrhea, it
is encouraged for all women who
come to doctors complaining of ab,
dominal problems, Vanderlin said.
"It's a lot more embarrassing to
have gonorrhea, than not know it
and pass it on to your sex partner,"
she said.
Over a 3-year period a few years
ago, Ritenour screened every wom
an who came in for abdominal prob
lems, she said. Of 13,000 women

abortions because of motives dealing with conve
nience or embarassment.
"Probably 90 percent of the people who elect to
have an abortion say that this is the one thing that
they had said they'd never do," Weller said.
He said he saw this as an indication that much
thought and wrestling•with the possibilities had
gone on, and that the decision was not just made
out of convenience.
No matter what alternative is chosen, Weller
said he believes that decision was based on the
woman's desire to act responsibly.
"They are all seeking the most responsible way
to go now," he said.
Weller bases his counseling on the situation of
the individual and gives support for whatever
alternative is chosen, he said.
screened, only 1.1 percent
. tests
came back positive for gonorrhea.
She said at an average clinic, the
percentage of positive tests is closer
to 3 percent.
Although students here are as
sexually active as anywhere, they
are not as mobile. This means that
not as many venereal diseases are
imported into the area, Vanderlin
said.
The more sex partners a person
has, the greater the chance they will
come in contact with some form of
venereal disease. Women who have
more than one sexual partner should
be screened more than once a year,
she said. It takes only about 30 days
for a gonococcal pelvic inflammato
ry disease to develop if the disease is
not treated, she said.
Doctors should also make sure
patients return for a follow-up test
seven to 10 days after their treat
ment has ended, Vanderlin said.
There are some strains of gonococci
that are resistant to penicillin and
may survive treatment.
"We have identified a couple hun
dred cases of penicillin-resistant
strains in the United States the last
couple of years," she said.
Each person the patient had sex
ual intercourse with before the dis
ease was detected should be
screened also, Vanderlin said. These
people may not know they have been
in contact with the disease and may
not show the symptoms.
The incident happened around noon as
Ward walked through the cafeteria,
greeting young people and talking to
them at random.
Sjostrom was nearby and said he heard
a gasp after a male student threw the
food at Ward.
School officials still were not certain
who threw the apple crisp, although
Sjostrom said he had narrowed the
search for the culprit to three male
students.
