And the flames themselves are not even the most dangerous part of the fire, Tom Hand said. Smoke inhalation, which accounts for 65 to 70 percent of fire-related death presents the worst hazard, and students who ,turn over and go back to sleep when a late-night fire alarm awakens them no matter what the time may never wake up again. "If that fire alarm sounds twelve times in one night you better get your butt up and get outside each time," Hand said last night to about 50 people at the Atherton Hall Council meeting.

"But in the past three years, the association has geared up to help students find jobs. Alumni communicate with each other and with the students." In addition to helping students just graduating from the University, the association helps recognize the achievements of alumni, Kidd said. "Alumni have a poor image coming into Beaver Stadium with bottles hidden under their coats," he said. "It's sad that they have gotten that image. "The teacher teaching a class, the surgeon wielding a scalpel the list goes on and on this is the real essence of alumni. That's what they got a higher education for to make contributions to society."

SSEMBLY R• 268 Enough fuel possible -by 2000 By JOHN SCHLANDER Daily Collegian Staff Writer If the federal government would subsi dize industry's efforts to build synthetic fuel plants, the United States could be self-sufficient in energy by the year 2000, a prominent fuel scientist said in a speech yesterday. Irving Wender, a professor at the Uni versity of Pittsburgh, said, "All we real ly have to do to break the (Middle Eastern oil) cartel is produce 10 to 15 percent of our energy needs with synthet ic fuel." Synthetic fuels are liquid fuels derived from coal, shale and other resources that are abundant in the United States: The government is not providing incen tive for industry to build plants to pro duce synthetic fuels, Wender said. In fact, the United States has no coherent energy policy, he said. "In this country, there is adversary relationship between government and industry. Government is saying to indus try, 'Carry the ball.' And they (industry) are saying, 'We'll carry the ball, but help The United States is Sufficient in all forms of energy except liquid fuels for transportation, Wender said. This is why synthetic fuel production is essential to a secure energy future, he said. "We are approaching the physical lim it of drilling. Everybody and his uncle is drilling wells everywhere in the coun try," Wender said. By the year 2000, the only. areas that will have abundant oil supplies are some Middle Eastern countries such as Ku wait, Iran and the United Arab Emi rates, Wender said. . Electricity use will continue to replace oil use in the next two decades, he said. But liquid fuels •still will be needed for transportation, because liquid fuel is the only efficient, transportable fuel. In the past, energy decisions in this country primarily have been made in reaction to problems, rather than as part of a defined energy policy, Wender said. However, this reaction has been a blessing in disguise, he said. "Any national energy policy would have been so political that it was bound to be wrong." The nation's reaction to one problem - the 1973 oil embargo was an especially fortunate one for this country,, Wender said. Although the nation's energy use has remained at steady or downward levels on the average since the mid-19705, Wender said more must to done to secure adequate liquid fuel supplies. The reason why more is not being done is that "We have so many choices so much shale, coal, etc. that we find it difficult to make a choice. We're an energy-rich country except for transport fuels," he said. If the choices were restricted because of limited resources, like in Japan and Germany, synthetic fuel plants probably would be built, he said. But Middle Eastern countries have practically made it a policy to keep oil flowing to the United States, so this nation does not hgve more incentive to produce synthetic fuels, Wender said.

S the daily 0 collegian Wolfpack unlucky outlet for Lion anger By TOM VERDUCCI • Daily Collegian Sports Writer • The Nittany Lion is one angry animal these days. Maybe it's the pain from the deep f wounds left by Miami last week. Maybe it's the agony of watching a No. 1 ranking slip away. Whatever it is, Penn State (6- 1) is a ferocious team this week. The Lions hope to take out their anger on the Wolfpack of North Carolina State (4-4) at 1 p.m. tomorrow in Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, N.C. The stadium's capacity is 46,500, but 50,000 are expected to jam the Wolfpack's den. This week on• the practice field, the Penn State players have been cussin' and feudin' and fightin'. "It's definitely the most intense week of practice I've ever been in," Lion defensive end Rich D'Amico said. "Peo ple out there are losing their minds." Even coach Joe Paterno has been less than pleasant this week. At his Wednes day press conference, Paterno said the Lions "have a long way to go to be a good football team," and while he didn't spare ,# any words, he did keep the jokes and the smiles to a minimum. "We've got to get back to doing things the hard way," he said, "get back in there and learn how to block and tackle. Have pride in, our physical ability. Have pride in being precise, thorough, in tense. . .things that we were not against Miami. "I'm worried about getting - guys men tally ready to play a tough football game and get back to where we look like a Penn State football team." The players want to get back to where they were last week: No. 1. Ranked sixth this week, the Lions realize they are still within striking distance of their goal. "We realize we're not out of it," tight end Mike McCloskey said. "With the teams we - have to play yet, people are going to sit up and take notice." Of course, at the end of - Penn State's menu are Alabama, Notre Dame and Pittsburgh -- all meaty opponents. But North Carolina State is enough to choke anyone. And the Wolfpack will be harder to swallow this week since the Lions will be without tailback Curt Warner, the fourth best ground gainer in the country (143.2 yards per garae)< ,- • < - Warner; who sit out the west:Virginid game with a pulled hamstring, pulled a different hamstring muscle against Mi ami. Paterno said he doesn't "think there's a chance that Curt Warner can The big one: it Lions' game with N0.,3 Connecticut or Temple? By JEFF SCHULER Daily Collegian Sports Writer Walt Bahr says it's all a mistake and wishes it wasn't so. But the schedule calls for his men's soccer team to host Connecticut at 7:15 - tonight at Jeffrey Field and then travel to Philadelphia on Sunday for a 1 p.m. meeting with traditional rival Temple. "I did not want this situation to arise," Bahr said of the scheduling snafu. "The Comfecticut game will be a tough one, there's no doubt about it. And the Temple game is a traditional game, regardless of the records involved." What concerns Bahr is the jockeying going on for bids to the National Colle giate Athletic Associathin tournament. And for that reason, he puts tonight's final home game with the second-ranked Huskies in perspective. "At this point of the season, it's more important to beat Temple and Lafayette (next Thursday) than to beat Connecti cut," Bahr said. "A loss to Connecticut would not be fatal, but a loss to one of the other two would be." Lion' midfielder Duncan Mac Ewan, who will return to the lineup tonight after missing the last two games with a bruised ankle, said the Lions are aware of the somewhat strange circumstances surrounding the weekend. "The way it is, we can't really afford to F' ^: ?. Jon Williams (44) will be filling in for an injured Curt Warner against North Carolina State at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Carter- Finley Stadium. play this week," and the coach is not certain if he'll be ready for Alabama. "Curt has not done anything (in prac tice)," Paterno said. "He's really stiff and sore. Whether he'll be ready the following week, I can't tell you." But if the Lions are without the nation's fourth-best runner, they still have the nation's fifth-best passer. That's right, Todd Blackledge has come from nowhere on the National Collegaite Athletic Asso ciation leaders chart to fifth. In the last three games, he's completed 45 of 67 passes (67 percent) and has thrown a touchdown pass in every game this year. Last week he completed 26 of 41 throws for 358 yards all Penn State records. His favorite targets have been Gregg Garrity (17 catches' for 320 yards) and McCloskey (15-209 and three TDs). Mc- Closkey, who's caught a pass in all seven games, said that the entire pass offense has improved in recent weeks. "It's hard for the pass offense to be _good ,when you go to-it only When you -have tii," he said. "Mienjou ban' throw the ball more, you get a better feel for it in the game. "We have confidence in it. All of it comes together as the season goes on." lose to Temple," he said. "If we beat Connecticut by three, four goals, then lose to Temple, beating Connecticut will have been a waste of time." But Bahr said the Lions will be playing to win tonight against perhaps the tough est team on their schedule. 'At this point of the season, it's more important to beat Temple and Lafayette than to beat Connecticut.' Walt Bahr "They are probably the top team we play," he said of the Huskies. "Connecti cut will be looking to get a win against us I think we're probably one of the few teams on their schedule (one that includ es top-ranked Indiana, No. 6 Philadel phia Textile, No. 8 St. Louis, and No. 9 San FranCisco) that they haven't beaten yet." The Huskies (15-2-1) carry an eight- its Commander Paterno, despite the suc cess of his air attack, would still like to rely on his land power. "We threw 41 times and got licked;" said Paterno, who added that he'd rather get back td the type of game Penn State plays best. Paterno must have looked at the Wolf pack pass defense statistics. The N.C. State secondary has allowed just '240 yards passing in the last four games. The Wolfpack features a gambling, reckless defense that had Paterno sounding like Paul Revere. "They're coming. They're coming," Paterno said. "They're not gonna sit there and wait for you. They're coming." They'll be coming on offense, too, with quarterback Tol Avery (68 of 129 for 805 passing yards) and freshman tailback Joe Mclntosh (914 rushing yards) lead ing the charge. In trying to head off that charge, the Lions will likely have linebacker and co captain Chet Parlavecchio back •in the lineup. 'ParlavegebA- Wio'stpaeoUt.' two games with an inflaninied knee, has been called by Paterno "the emotional leader of the defense" and sends the intensity level up a few notches. The Wolfp.ack do most of their damage lei 031 1 "- nee vAtqcoov.iAo game unbeaten streak (7-0-1) into the game and have what Bahr calls "the best forward line in the country" in Elvis Comrie (11 goals, 13 assists, 35 points), Pedro Deßrit° (five goals, 15 assists, 25 points) and Graziano Cornolo (11 goals, two assists, 24 points). "Most teams have one, maybe two, outstanding forwards," Bahr said, "but they (Connecticut) have three." Lion goalie Greg Kenney will be given the task of shutting down a Connecticut offense that is averaging over three goals a game. "(Kenny's) starting to develop confi dence in himself," Bahr said, "and the defenders are starting to develop confi dence in him. It's a two-way street back there." Bahr is hoping that Mac Ewan's return will add some punch to the Lions' of fense, which has scored just five goals in the past three games. Mac Ewan said the injury is not completely healed but said time is running out for him. "It feels a lot better I ran on it last night, and it felt stronger," he said. "Naturally it's not going to be as good as I'd like it to be, and it will probably be sore the rest of the season. "But if I'm going to wait for it to be 100 percent, I'll be out for the rest of the year." PON T LriaK AHEAD. Mac Ewan sat on the sidelines during ~.:R; , ~ 5. ~. ~. off - the veer, but D'Amico said he thinks the Lions will keep the veer out of gear. "They run one option," D'Amico said. "It's really not much of a problem. We've got to contain them and do the things we've been doing in practice." The defense has been stingy at the beginning and at the end of games this year. In seven starts, it has allowed a total of nine points in the first quarter and 10 points in the last quarter. The defenders have been even more miserly with rushing touchdowns, allowing just one (a 2-yard run by Nebraska's Roger Craig). "We're kind of happy," D'Amico said, "but we're never satisfied. We always like to play better. We let up one TD, but maybe if it were none we'd be in better shape." They've lost one game, too, and maybe if it were none they wouldn't be so mean. NITTANY LINES: N.C. State has beat en Richmond (27-21), Wake Forest (28- . 23)„East Carolina (31-10) and Virginia ,(30-2:4) and has lost to Maryland (34-9), No. 8 North Carolina (21-10), No. 2 Clem son (17-7) and South Carolina (20- 12). . .Penn State leads this series 15- 2. . .The Wolfpack has blocked two punts for touchdowns this year. Wolfpack back is LeGrande By WILL PAKUTKA Daily Collegian Sports Writer When North Carolina State cornerback Donnie LeGrande put his foot down at a practice last year, he just assumed he'd be able to pick it back up again. "All we were doing was running a drill stepping over bags," said LeGrande, whose N.C. State team will take on Penn State tomorrow in Raleigh. "I felt like I pulled a muscle in the back of my knee. "I stopped a minute and rubbed it, but I didn't think it was that bad until I got back to the room. My foot was numb." The injury was diagnosed as 'drop foot' a nerve condition that makes it impos sible for the victim to pick up his foot. Of course, •it also makes it impossible for the victim to run and even more impossible for the victim's football team to use him at cornerback. Tuesday's 1-0 double overtime win over Lehigh, dressed and ready to go. Al though he had the urge to go in and try to get something started for the Lions, Mac Ewan fought it off. "I was itching a little, but it would of been stupid for me to go in," he said. "It's not like I would have or could have made the difference I haven't exactly been lighting up the scoreboard this year, you know. And it's not like we were playing bad; we just couldn't convert." But MacEwah doesn't have to light' up the scoreboard to make his presence felt on the field. "Jvt to know he's in there will give the team 'a big lift," said Lion Peter Jan cevski, the team's leading scorer. Bahr just hopes the lift carries over to Sunday for the big game of the weekend. CORNER KICKS: Tonight's game is the final regular-season home game for four Lions: Mac Ewan, Jancevski, Dan Canter and Bill Mueller. They will be honored in a short ceremony. . .UConn has beaten St. Louis and Indiana, and has lost to San Francisco. The Huskies travel to Textile on Sunday. . .Last year Penn State and Connecticut battled to a scoreless tie despite the Huskies holding a 31-8 shot advantage. . .In their only other meeting, the Lions won 2-1 in 1979. Temple (7-5-1) is led by senior Tom Pote (five goals, four assists). Tomorrow can't come too soon for Franco By TOM VERDUCCI Daily Collegian Sports Writer It was appropriate that Brian Franco was taunted by his worst kicking performance ever on Hal loween. The haunting continued that night on the Penn State charter flight from Miami to Harrisburg. "That was the hardest part," he said. "I was pretty tired and drain ed, and my legs were killing me. I wasn't comfortable in any sense of the word." The haunting continued the next day always an off-day for the Lions. "Sunday was just as bad," he said, "because I couldn't get out and practice." Franco said it took a few days to get over it, but he knows that only his foot and not time can kick that nightmare completely out of his mind. That's why tomorrow's game with North Carolina State can't come soon enough for Brian Franco. "This is my comeback game," he said. "This one is real important to me. I've got to make that first one." Against Miami, Franco missed the first one. He missed the second one, too. 'And he missed• the third and fourth ones. The first was a 51-yard attempt. Wide right. "On the first two, the conditions weren't great," Franco said. The second was a 46-yard attempt into the wind. Short. "I was all set to kick it, and then the referee blew the whistle and we changed ends (at the end of a quar ter)," he said. "It was right on, but it just fizzled out." The third was a 22-yard attempt. Wide left. "I wasn't thinking any different ly," be said. "I just couldn't believe I pulled it". The fourth was a 23-yard attempt. Wide right. "I was starting to feel a little disgusted and a little grief," he said. So senior cornerback Donnie Le- Grande became ???? cornerback Donnie LeGrande. He could take a redshirt year and try again the next season, but not if he couldn't pick up his foot to put his cleats on. Not until about last Christmas did movement come back to the leg. It took a lot of work with weights to get LeGrande back to his old form especially since he had been a Preseason All-Conference pick before the injury. All the movement didn't come back until after six months of weight work. But finally it did, and just in time for LeGrande to look at N.C. State's sched ule one that would make most people in his position say, 'Why didn't I grad uate last year?' Please see WOLFPACK, Page 18. Forward Doug Moyer (14) and the 12th-ranked men's soccer team play their biggest game of the year against third-ranked Connecticut at 7:15 tonight at Jeffrey Field. Friday, Nov. 6 1 Brian Franco "It was windy, and the rain was coming down like crazy. I was in kind of a daze." After that miss, coach Joe Paterno shook his wet head and took off his glasses, probably sending his specs out to check if the prescription was still right. But yes, what Paterno had seen was true. Four missed kicks by a player who was 11 for 12 in six previous games. "I think it's like a golfer," Paterno said. "Every once in a while you're a little bit off and you shank a shot or something like that." Please see FRANCO. Page 18. Donnie LeGrande
