Local unions plan new strikes in Poland
By THOMAS W. NETTER
Associated Press Writer
WARSAW, Poland (AP) Challenging
the Polish Parliament and national union
leaders, local Solidarity unionists
planned new strikes and vowed yester
day. to continue wildcat protests now
idling some 250,000 workers across the
country.
Prosecutors in the Baltic port of Szcze
cin began a criminal investigation of
focal Solidarity leader Marian Jurczyk
for a speech he gave,. calling legislators
and the government "traitors to Polish
society," the official PAP news agency
reported yesterday.
It was the first reported investigation
of a senior Solidarity official in the
union's 15 months of existence.
- Walkouts are scheduled by Solidarity
chapters in at least six cities this week,
but officials could not immediately be
reached to say if they planned to cancel
the protests in light of an appeal by
Parliament on Saturday to end them. ,

Begin attacks Saudi proposal for Mideast peace
By ARTHUR MAX
Associated Press Writer
JERUSALEM (AP) Prime Minister Menachem
Begin sharply attacked Saudi Arabia's peace proposal
yesterday as "a plan for how . to liquidate Israel in
stages" and called on Washington to reject it.
Begin, interviewed in Israel on the ABC News pro
gram, "Issues and Answers," said the Jewish state felt
threatened by apparently growing support in the United
States and Europe for parts of the Mideast peace
blueprint advanced two months ago by Saudi Crown
Prince Fand.
The Israeli leader sent a friendly but firm letter
Friday to President Reagan, disagreeing with the U.S.
view that the Saudis might be on the verge of recogniz
ing Israel's right to live in peace, according to an
official who said he saw the letter. The official asked not
to be identified.
. Yesterday, Begin appealed to the White House "to
reject without any equivocation whatsoever the eight
points (outlined by) Crown Prince Fand because they
mean the opposite of peace,"
He warned that if the Saudi plan "should ever be
adopted by anybody, then it would be a great obstacle to
the peace 'process . . . a complete deviation from the
Camp David agreement."
The Saudi plan originally was dismissed by Washing
ton as representing nothing new, but the State Depart
ment said Friday it welcomed some aspects and had
"some problems" with other parts.
It said the United States was "encouraged" by the
clause implying recognition of Israel.
The Saudi plan calls, on Israel to withdraw to its 1967
borders, dismantle its settlements in occupied territory,
and set u a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its

scheduled to meet tomorrow in Gdansk
to discuss the protest wave, and may
take disciplinary measures against its
own members for staging wildcat
strikes.
The worst outbreak of wildcat walk
outs since the independent labor feder
ation was spawned in August 1980 showed
little sign of abating.
Strikes some of them up to three
weeks old continued in Zyrardow,
Tarnobrzeg, Zielona Gora and Sosnowiec
over food shortages and other issues.
Many local leaders remained adamant
that strikes would continue until labor
disputes are resolved.
"The strike committee considers all
important matters, and it will have to
consider both the Solidarity leadership
and Sejm (Parliament) resolutions,"
said a spokesman for striking unionists
in Tarnobrzeg.
"But the strike will certainly continue

to Israel as "the Zionist entity'! rather than a state.
Israel, which claims Jerusalem as its own capital,
regards a Palestinian state as a potential base for its
enemies and the Soviet Union.
Begin said Israel will not withdraw to its 1967 bounda

acquired since pose a threat to most of Israel's popula-

The union official cited the "stubbor
ness" of government negotiators who
demanded the protest be suspended be

The Sejm said in its resolution Satur
day that such protests endangered Po
land's existence an apparent
reference to continuing economic de
cline. Poland has an estimated $27 billion
foreign debt to the West and its lack of
hard currency has exacerbated the
strike effects by curtailing Poland's abil
ity to import raw materials needed for its
manufacturing base.
One parliamentary deputy from Tar
nobrzeg, Zdzislaw Malicki, told the Sejm
that the Tarnobrzeg protest had already
cost $5 million in lost sulphur exports
from Poland.
Grzegorz Popielczyk, spokesman for
some 12,000 striking women in Zyrardow,
a textile center west of here, declared:
"We won't end the strike until we have a
real guarantee of conditions in which we
can at least survive."
SAT scores vary widely across country
Difference may be as high as 300 points, according to survey
By CHRISTOPHER CONNELL
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) Students' av
erage Scholastic Aptitude Test scores
vary by as much as 300 points from state
to state, according to a new survey.
But the main reason for the differences
is that relatively few students took the
college entrance examination in the
states with the highest scores, according
to College Board officials. -
The College Board, which announced
in September that the national 'average
SAT scores among last year's college
bound seniors was 424 in verbal and 466 in
math (890 combined), has never released
a state-by-state breakdown.
But the board gave the state scores to
state education commissioners, and Edu
cation USA, a weekly publication, can
vassed the commissioners and reported
the results for the first time.
The women in Zyrardow have been on
strike for 20 days to protest the town's
scarce supplies and poor quality of food.
In southwestern Zielona Gora, where
atxiut 150,000 workers have been on a
province -wide strike for 10 days, Solidar
ity spokesman Mieczyslaw Osmian said,
"The strike is still on.
"We are waiting for a competent gov
ernment commission for talks," Osmian
said, "and we have the full support of
(Solidarity leader) Lech Walesa. He told
us, 'I treat this problem as my own.' "
In Sosnowiece, a coal-mining center
near Katowice in southern Poland, strik
ing miners retained their sit-in at a local
coal pit where a chemical-throwing inci
dent hospitalized some 60 people
' Most of those hospitalized have been
released but the miners refuse to return
to work until an investigation is com
pleted. At least six local coal mines have
threatened to join the protest this week.

The official who revealed that Begin had written
Reagan said the letter reflected Israeli apprehension
that Washington is drifting too close to Saudi Arabia
after Reagan's victory in winning Senate approval for
the sale of Airborne Warning and Control System .
Begin said the Senate's approval last week of the $8.5
billion arms deal did not seriously jeopardize the
Israeli-Egyptian peace process or Israeli relations with
the United States. He said Israel would withdraw from
the Sinai Peninsula on schedule next April.
Aides said Defense Minister Ariel Sharon postponed a
scheduled trip to Washington this week partly to show
Israeli displeasure over the Reagan administration's
favorable comments on the Saudi plan.
When Begin opens the Israeli Parliament's winter
session today, he is expected to focus on Israeli-U.S.
relations.
In geirut, Lebanon, the magazine Monday Morning
quoted Egypt's ambassador to Washington as saying
chances are better than ever for the United States to
talk to the Palestine Liberation Organization.
"I feel there is ample opportunity, much more than
ever before, for us to move into an atmosphere in which
that
. dialogue will take place," Ambassador Shraf
Ghorbal was quoted as saying.
He was asked if he believed Washington would start
pressuring the Israeli negotiators in the current Pales
tinian autonomy talks, and he replied, "Yes, I believe so
. . . I believe the voice around the world is 'let us lose no
more time."'
Cairo newspapers quoted Egyptian Minister of
State Butros Ghali as saying Egypt and Israel have
postponed the Nov. 8 resumption of Palestinian autono
my talks until Nov. 11.
Each half of the test is scored on a
scale of 200 to 800. The highest average
score was in lowa, where 1,300 seniors, or
3 percent of all seniors in lowa, scored
515 on verbal and 566 on math for a
combined score of 1081.
The lowest average scores were in
South Carolina 374 verbal, 406 math,
780 combined where nearly 20,000
seniors, or 48 percent of the graduates,
took the SAT.
Among the other test scores were:
Pennsylvania 421-459-880 (89,548, 48
percent), Maryland 423461-884 (30,182, 49
percent), New Jersey 414-450-864 (72,143,
64 percent), New York 427-471-898
(144,163, 59 percent), and Ohio 457-500-957

Space shuttle
stands ready,
countdown
goes on
By HARRY F. ROSENTHAL
Associated Press Writer
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)
Astronauts Joe Engle and Richard
Truly pored over their flight plans
Saturday with space shuttle control
lers who will guide their five-day
journey. The gleaming white ship,
meanwhile, sailed through day one
of its countdown to Wednesday's
launch.
Right now, we have zero prob
lems," said countdown director
Norm .Carlson.
The astronauts, in Houston, were
undertaking a final review of the
thick 'flight plan for the return mis
sion to space.
"It's a light weekend for them.
Nothing is organized,"said John
Lawrerice, a spokesman for the Na
tional Aeronautics and Space Ad
ministration. "We are trying to back
itive colleges such as the University of
Chicago, Stanford (and) the Ivies." Most
students in lowa and other Midwest
states take the rival exam offered by the
American College Testing program of
lowa City.
Cameron said it is harder to explain
score gaps between states where similar
percentages of students took the SAT. In
Maryland, for instance, more than 30,000
seniors, or 49 percent, took the test and
averaged 423-461-884, far above South
Carolina.
In other national tests, such as the
federally sponsored National Assess
ment of Educational Progress, students
in the Southeast usually lag behind stu
dents from other Tegions of the country.
Cameron said the gap between'north
ern and southern states may reflect the
lingering effects of segregation and dif
ferences in per capita income.

off quite a bit so they'll be refreshed
and rested and not exhausted."
Engle and Truly have been stay
ing at their' homes in Houston, rather
than in the crew trailers normally
used during the countdown stage of a
flight. They will fly their own T-38
trainers to the cape today.
The number of "primary con
tacts" who can get close to the men
has been cut from 700 people for the
first shuttle flight to 200. Doctors try
to limit contact to cut down on
chances of colds and other commu
nicable diseases.
Liftoff is scheduled for 7:30 a.m.
EST Wednesday, just a few minutes
after dawn at the cape. If all goes
well, Engle and Truly will fly the
Columbia for 83 orbits, landing on
Rogers Dry Lake on the Mojave
Desert in California.
Early Saturday, engineers
,in 65
different shuttle operations were
polled for the readiness of their
systems and at 1 a.m., as scheduled,
the shift director announced "the
launch countdown is now in pro
gress." ,
The countdown includes 73 hours
of scheduled work and 29 1 / 2 hours'
hold time, designed to allow crews to
rest and for catchup duties if nec
essary.
Engineers were optimistic that the
lessons learned on'the maiden flight
of Columbia last April will smooth
the way for Launch 11. "We are
better off" this time, said countdm4n
director Carlson. •
Just before the scheduled launch
time, astronaut John Young com
mander of flight one will land a
plane that handles like the shuttle on
the Kennedy Space Center runway,
which is the emergency landing
strip if Columbia has to abort right
after liftoff.
His word is important if conditions
are marginal. Project engineer Ellis
said the crosswinds on the runway
yesterday morning at 7:30 a.m.
would not have permitted launch.
The Cape has been buffeted by
dawn rains in recent days, and light
ning is a key concern, said Roland
Raab of NASA.
"We are reasonably protected on
the pad, but in flight it's different,"
he said. "Any time there is a light
ning strike on a flying , vehicle, it
affects the electronic equipment in
some way. Since the shuttle is so
much more complex, the problems
lightning creates would be .much
more complex."
Mississippi scored well above the na
tional average, with scores of 473-502-975.
But fewer than 800, or 2 percent of its
seniors, took the SATs.
"Frankly, our youngsters who take the
SAT do very well on it. Most children in
our state take the ACT," said Mississippi
Superintendant of Education Charles•E.
Holladay.
Cameron said the College Board dis
courages state-by-state comparisons be
cause of the wide variances in how many
students take the SAT. .
One million seniors take the SAT each
year. They represent one-third of their
high school classes, and two-thirds of
those who go on to college. The national
average held steady this year for the first
time since 1968, 'raising hopes that the
decline in SAT scores that began 18 years
ago has been arrested.
Halloween ghouls possess
By DIANE L. ROWELL
. Daily Collegian Staff Writer
It was supposed to be just another Halloween. A
Halloween with the usual costumes, parties, scary
movies and too much candy.
It was just another Halloween until the vampires,
werewolves and walking dead came to life and took
up residence at the Haunted Crow House, 425 Locust
Lane, this past weekend.
The deathly looking creatures with their white
faces, hallowed eyes and blood-itained cheeks and
hands stood on the porch of the house, peered from
the windows and called to the unknowing souls
passing by.
Trick-or-treaters, thrill seekers and Halloween
scrooges were all invited to test their courage at
Alpha Chi Rho fraternity's Haunted House if they
dared.
The Haunted Crow House, a traditional Halloween
event put on by the fraternity, has been held the past
seven years to benefit Strawberry Fields a
community living arrangement for mentally
retarded young adults.
Last year the fraternity raised $2,700 from
donations, canning and the admission charge to enter
the haunted house. This year, Alpha Chi Rho expects
to raise between $2,900 and $3,100 after it finishes
counting the collected funds.
"Overall, everything went very well," said
Haunted House co-chairman Bill James. "We raised
over $7OO from canning which was double what we
had anticipated."
James said Alpha Phi sorority was very helpful in
its support and time given. to the project. The '
community and State College merchants were also
an important factor in the success of the Haunted
House, with their donations of needed materials and
supplies for the project, James said.
On Thursday, Friday . and Saturday nights, the
Haunted House crew opened the creaking doors and
pushed aside the cobwebs to welcome the costumed
studeng and residents of State College. •
The front yard of the house was transformed into a
graveyard with tombstones that read: "I told you I
was sick," "Vacancy" and "Pitt." The graves were
conveniently located beside some lynching apparatus
that was the scene of periodic "hangings."
The ghoulish residents of the Haunted House
limped and wobbled out of the house, dragging their
next victim to be hanged.
"Hang 'em," they chanted. "Die!"
"Go ahead, hang him. He's from Miami," the

people shouted back as they waited in line for their
turn to enter the house.
As the line becathe longer, groups of four or five
people were let in past the front gates of the house to
wait on the steps before entering.
No smoking signs and figures emerging from the
shadows greeted the guests as they clutched on to
each other.
"Anyone who gets me mad shall hang," a ghoul
said to his waiting group.
"But what if I told you I had a gun?" one girl said.
"I don't really care," the ghoul said. "I'm already
dead."
At the door, a silver-faced creature greeted the
guests and told them to pay before entering.
"We don't know if you'll come out again," the silver
creature said: haven't eaten in a while."
Inside, a Dracula look-alike sat up from his casket
and licked his chops as he looked suspiciously at
everyone's neck.
Organ music, eerie laughter and screaming came
from all over the house as the guests were led from
room to room never quite sure what was ahead of
them.

a table, blinking lights, a torture chamber, a human

features that caused the guests to cower and clutch
on to each other.
The creatures inside, of unknown origin, pawed and
poked at the people passing by to make sure they
were still alive and breathing after their journey of
fright.
"Do come back," the ghouls said in their deep
throated voices. "We'd love to have you for dinner."
Some ran and others walked as they left the
Haunted House, but most agreed it was a scary trip.
A Dr. Gonzo Gates, his patient and accompanying
hospital administrators, were all in agreement that
the house definitely "haunted" them. After
recovering from their shock and rubbing the self
inflicted finger nail marks from' their arms,
Halloween became business as usual.
"Halloween is just another excuse to party," said
Dr. Gates, alias Steve Shore (Ist-business) from
Ogontz.
The Texas Chainsaw Masochist ("I inflict wounds
upon myself"), another person who survived the
Haunted House and could talk about it, said the house
held 'a few good scary surprises.
He also seemed to enjoy taking up where the ghouls
left off. As a young girl emerged from the house
clutching her heart and trying to recover, the
chainsaw masochist sprang from behind a parked
car and proceeded to scare the girl into running down
the street screaming.
"On Halloween, I let my inhibitions run wild," said
Dennis Barclay, the chainsaw masochist and a 1980
University graduate.
As the evening progressed and the late night
Halloweeners emerged from their parties and
mischief making, the line outside the house became
full of some of the more creative examples of
University students' ingenuity.
Cigar-smoking Arabs, mummy housewives, a
preppie nun and several males dressed in women's
clothing waited their turn to enter the house.
"Oh, is this Halloween?" an unidentified
transvestite said. "I simply loVe dressing like a
woman. Halloween is no excuse for me."
A pregnant nun and her three "sisters" blessed
themselves and others as they waited on line.
"I like to let my real inner self out on Halloween,"
said pregnant sister Annie Keiser (4th-accounting) as
she patted her protruding stomach.
The werewolves howled and the ghouls continued to
giggle as they watched their favorite night of the year
pass into the twilight. It was just another Halloween
for them.
