Week-long sex discussions continue
By JOYCE WASHNIK
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Understanding sexuality may be the touchstone
for understanding what is best for the human
condition, said an assistant professor of health
education yesterday during a presentation about
"Sexual Values and Guilt."
"One of our concerns is the anxiety that comes
along with even being comfortable examining
issues," said Robert A. Walker at the Straight
Talk About Sex program, sponsored by the United
Ministry at the University.
Annette W. Ranck, clinical psychologist at
Ritenour Counseling Center, joined Walker to
present the last talk in the week-long series of
presentations. She instructed the audience to try
to "get in touch with feelings and values about
sexual expression."
"From all experiences consider what you be
lieve about sex," she said. "Consider your sexual

values now, and what you want them to be."
Ranck asked the audience to relax and look into
their past. The audience was then given a sheet of
paper and each person was asked to write down
"Five Commandments About Sex."
Several responses were then shared with the
audience, including such ideas as "Intercourse is
only for procreation," "Always use protection
when having intercourse," "Having sex with a
person of the same sex is a no-no" and "No
kissing or touching in front of others."
"Listing messages you don't actually live by
can be useful," said Walker.
Ranck then spoke about guilt as a punishment
people inflict upon themselves, for some wrong
doing.
"Guilt is often a word we use for our experi
ences when we have made a gap between what we
do and what we believe we should do," she said.
"Behind every instance of guilt is an ideal into
relatively small industry.
Representatives from the local Burger King
and the regional headquarters were unavailable
for comment.
At the State College Municipal Council meeting
Monday, Tim Auvil, a regional supervisor for
Burger King, questioned the safety of protesters
walking the sidewalk. in front of the restaurant.
He said Burger King had no problem with the
protesters presenting their point of view but
questioned why they singled out Burger King.
which we are failing to fit."
The discussion continued at a seminar last night
with students offering their feelings about guilt
and asking questions.
"I was looking for understanding and a solution
to the personal relationship that I have now so I
could feel better," said Don Lehr (graduate-coun
selor education). "This did help me."
Suzanne Marsten (9th-business logistics)
thought the program was "presented in a very
professional and unbiased way."
Another student said she came to the program
to "see if people shared similar problems or guilt
feelings and to see how they dealt with them."
The program continues this morning at 11:30 in
the HUB main lounge when all speakers who have
participated in the series of presentations will
conduct a panel discussion.
Police Chief Elwood G. Williams Jr. has said
that the borough cannot deny anyone the right to
use a public sidewalk as long as they do not harass
citizens or block access.
The group plans to meet at 10 a.m on the
campus side of South Allen Street and West
College Avenue and march along the sidewalk on
Beaver Avenue to Burger King, where they will
picket and distribute literature.

Legislators get onrush
of calls from students
By ANNE CONNERS
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Washington may not have listened to the
message, but University students made 150
phone calls over the past three days anyway,
trying to persuade U.S. legislators to oppose
further cutbacks in financial aid.
The 'U.S. House of Representaives yester
day turned a deaf ear to students' pleas,
p'assing a 4 percent across-the-board cut in
domestic programs including student aid.
The bill represents a $4 billion cut in the
federal budget and was approved 218-197.
The Senate will probably consider the bill
tonight or tomorrow. • •
Using phones provided by the Undergrad
uate Student Government, students called
Sen. John H. Heinz, R-Pa., Sen. Arlen Specter,
R-Pa., and their own congressmen to protest
financial aid cutbacks.
USG Vice President Ken Reeves said ,he
hoped students would feel moreyelaxed about
calling their congressmen when future finan
cial'aid cuts are considered. •
"A lot of the initial shyness of calling people
who represent them has worn off because
they're (students) tired of being knocked in
the back by politicians," Reeves said after a
USG Executive Council meeting.

proved this year for several federal education
programs would be cut by 40 percent in fiscal

In other business, snow removal on campus
was also discussed at the council meeting.
Bill Rose, a representatiye from the Office
of Physical Plant, said students may be hired
to shovel snow in 'dorm areas after a heavy
storm.
The University tried a similar program in
the past, but many students were not around
when the snow fell, Rose said.
"Snow doesn't fall conveniently," he said.
"It falls during finals, when you want to go
home for a weekend and at 3 in the morning."
Council members mentioned several areas
on campus that become dangerpus when snow
falls,
.and Rose said he would take Their
suggestions back to physical plant.
Rose also said that physical plant usually

Lion cagers aim for Classic berth against Indiana
By STEVE GRAHAM
Daily Collegian Sports Writer
The place is Bloomington, Ind. Its history
includes six Big Ten championships and two
NCAA crowns in the laSt 11 years. The coach is the
controversial Bobby Knight. And the atmosphere
is Hoosier Hysteria.
That's what the men's basketball , team will be
up against when it makes its first appearance
ever at the Indiana Classic today and tomorrow.
Tonight, Penn State (4-1) will face Southern
Methodist at 10 (EST) and Colorado State will
take on the defending national champion Hoosiers
at 8 in, first-round games.
--
One might expect the Lions to be awestruck this
weekend. Indiana has a rich basketball tradition,
and a capacity crowd of 17,357 fans could fill
Assembly Hall. But that doesn't seem to make
much difference to Penn State guard-forward

Farrell falls short
in bid for Lombardi
HOUSTON (AP) Kenneth Sims,
the injured two-time All-America
defensive tackle from Texas, re
ceived the Lombardi Award last
night as the nation's best college
football lineman for 1981.
The 6-6, 270-pound Sims finished
ahead of Billy Ray Smith of Arkan
sas, Sean Farrell of Penn State and
Bob Crable of Notre Dame.
The award, a 40-pound block of
granite, is given in honor of Vince
Lombardi, the former Green Bay
and Washington coach who died of
cancer in 1970.
The point total from balloting by a
committee of 95 college football
coaches, sportswriters and sports
casters was not disclosed.

The Lady Lions led by 19 points in the
first half until junior guard Annie Troyan
left the game with 7:10 remaining.
Troyan, who is nursing a hamstring
injury, once again has knee problems. A

play every day; no matter if you're playing
Indiana or you're playing Lafayette."
To be sure, this year's edition of Knight's
Hoosiers is no Lafayette. Although they have lost
forward Ray Tolbert (New Jersey Nets), guard
Isiah Thomas (Detroit Pistons) and forward
Landon Turner (paralyzed after a auto 'accident),
the Hoosiers are 24, including a convincing 69-55
victory over Notre Dame.
But the Lions may not even get the chance to
play Indiana. They must still get past a much
improved SMU squad and assume that the Hoo
siers will handle Colorado State with relative
ease. Then, and only then, will Penn State meet. its
toughest opponent of the season.
"It should be pretty exciting," said Choice, who
himself has been excited abouL \ his increased
amount of playing time. "Bloomington is a bas

minutes remaining Herbert was fouled
on an offensive rebound. She hit the first
free throw and nabbed the rebound which—
led to a Carol Fultz bucket. Herbert sunk
the final shot to seal the win for Penn
State and end up with 11 points for the
night.
Three other Lady Lions registered in

Lady Lions vault into season
By KEITH GROLLER
Daily Collegian Sports Writer
Judi Avener scanned the spacious gymnastics room in
the White Building yesterday afternoon, checking out
each' of the eight girls on her women's squad.
There was Marcy Levine, flopping to the mat after
her uneven bars routine with a pleasant smile on her
face.
There was Heidi Anderson, meticulously-working on
the beam and concentrating as though it were a final
exam and she needed an "A" to pass the course.
• And theft was Avener, shouting encouragement and
instructions to her girls with enthusiasm and concern in
her voice at the same time,
Avener's Lady Lions open their season at 1 p.m.
tomorrow at Clarion State, and the outlook, like the
coach's voice, is filled with enthusiasm and concern.
The enthusiasm stems from the team's talent. Any
team with performers like Anderson and Levine has to
be enthusiastic. But the concern comes from the fact
that there are only eight girls on the squad.
Eight on a basketball team is fine. Eight on a
gymnastics squad means trouble.
. "I feel like a football coach with just eleven players,"
Avener said, during her team's workout yesterday. "I
don't think we're going to be as strong a team this year
as we have been in the past, simply because we don't
have the depth."
The team must avoid injuries. But that's about as
easy as entering a State College night spot without an
ID. It's an awfully tough task because injuries occur in
gymnastics about as often as the Yankees change
manageri. Just abtmt everyday.
Penn State has all ready suffered two crippling
injuries. Both Margie' Foster (torn ligament in her
knee) and Patti Rice (dislocated elbow) are lost for the
season. So, it's understandable that Avener is very
cautious about her, team's chances this year.
"We're not shooting for a national championship at
this point," Avener said with a smile. "Right now our
major goal is to be healthy. Secondly, we want consis
tency. And third, we'd like individual improvement."
Avener has five gymnasts back from last year's team,
which finished a disappointing fourth in' the MAW
national championships. Disappointing only because
the Lady Lions won the title two of the previous three
years and had beated eventual champion, Utah, in the
dual meet season.

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) Jeff Chandler stopped
challenger Eijiro Murata in the 13th round with two
swift uppercuts last night to retain his World Boxing
Association bantamweight title. '
Chandler knocked Murata to the canvas early in the
13th round and later caught him off balance with a left
hook before delivering the final blows.

problem for the Lions, but getting up on the court
has especially in the first half. Penn State has
lacked the inspiration, and motivation to take
command in the early going, as witnessed by its
lethargic performance in the win Tuesday night
over Lafayette.
Hardly anyone, including Choice and Penn
State voluhteer assistant coach Fletcher Gregory,
has an explanation for it.
"I don't know what the problem is," Gregory
said. "If you ask each individual, I think he would
probably tell you that he thought he was ready to
play when he stepped onto the floor.
"We just have to develop a 40-minute attitude,
particularly in that first five, six minutes. In
general, I think the guys are ready to play, but
they're going to have to dig a little deeper."
Depth is something that has helped the Lions to
four wins (albeit unimpressive ones) in their first
five games. For example, Lion forward Brian
Dean came off the bench to score 16 points in the
victory over Lafayette.

If there was ever a time to overthrow Penn State's football
program, it was the past week.
The full-time assistant coaches - were on the road recruiting.
Head coach Joe Paterno, after a bout with the bug last
weekend, was in New York. Sean Farrell, everybody's All-
American guard, was in California, had comeback, and then
left for Houston. Only the part-time assistants and the players
themselves remained.
But there was no mutiny. Instead, the Nittany Lions went
through two quiet days of light practice at the, Indoor Sports
Complex, concentrating mainly on conditioning.
They did get to see a bit of the offensive and defensive
formations Southern Cal is expected to use against them on
Jan. 1 at the Fiesta Bowl in Tempe, Ariz.
Still, Nittany Lion linebackers Matt Bradley and Ed Pryts
couldn't wait to see how USC runs its Student Body Left and
Student Body Right, so they made a special trip to the Nittany
Lions' film room.
' "I don't think they've shown the films officially yet, but Ed
and I went down to look at some," Bradley said. "They're
definitely impressive.
"And Marcus Allen is a great tailback. What more can be
said about him? He won the Heisman Trophy; you can't say
much more about the guy."
That's if you can even find him. Allen hasn't been on the
Southern Cal campus for almost a week.
He was in New York last Saturday night for the syndicated
Heisman Trophy show and earlier in the week he appeared on a
network morning television show. And last night, Allen was
officially awarded the Heisman by the Downtown Athletic Club
at a black-tie affair at the New York Hilton.
Until yesterday afternoon, when his plane flew into State
College from New York, Paterno had been on the go, too.
He spent the latter part of last week at the National Collegiate
Athletic Association convention in St. Louis. There, he helped
Heading the list of returnees are Anderson and
Levine.
Anderson, a sophomore, won the AIAW floor exercise
title last year as a freshman and according to Avener, is
a much improved gymnast this year.
"Heidi is a very gifted athlete, perhaps one of the best
gymnasts in the country," Avener said. "It's too early
to tell, but I think she's improved a great deal over last
year. She looks good.
"Her strong events have been the floor and the beam,
but her bars and vault routines are much better.
Improving in these events, particularly the vault, will
make her a much stronger all-around gymnast."
Levine, whose "happy-go-lucky" personality offsets
the stern, serious atmosphere of the gym, is a veteran
performer coming off a season which was dimmed
somewhat by a cracked rib right before the nationals.
But the senior is back at it for another season more
talented and funnier than ever.
"Marcy's great strength is her consistency," Avener
'said. "She's an aggressive, good competitor and on a
team as small as ours, she comes in very handy. She
also has quite a sense of humor, which helps the team,
too."
Other returners, Joanne Beltz, Linda Tardiff and
Karen Polak will all be counted on as will newcomers,
Joanna Sime, Cissy Chung and Debbie. Williams.
Sime participated in a meet against Penn Statc last
year as a member of the national Great Britain team.
Sime was so impressed with the place that she decided
to come to Happy Valley and is now a member of the
Lady Lions.
"She's a classy gymnast with a lot of international
experience," Avener said. "She's consistent on all
events, but we'll need her most in the floor exercise."
Chung will be counted on in the vault, but because she
doesn't have the private club expereince that most
gymnasts have, she'll have to work hard to catch up
with most of the girls.
So will Williams, who was called out of retirement
after the injuries to Foster and Rice. She was going to be
the team's manager, but was asked to join the squad.
She's been working hard to get back in shape, according
to Avener, after three years away from competition.
The team, as a whole, will be rounding into shape
against Clarion, a meet which Avener looks forward to.
Murata, to retain WBA title
Chandler's st.nging blows to the head.
Chandler, 27-0-2, of Philadelphia, established himself
in the third round but threw few combinations until the
fifth, when he stung Murata with a right uppercut
followed by a left hook. Murata responded each time
with a flurry to the ribs.
In the ninth round of the scheduled 15-rounder, Chan
dler, 117'/4, threw himself off the ropes with a right to
Murata's chin, then put a bruise under the Japanese
fighter's left eye with a hook.
A powerful right to the jaw sent Murata, 117%, reeling
Lions eye clash with USC
he's normally accustomed to. He said he'll be
ready to step in against Indiana, but SMU is a
more immediate, and possibly, more pressing
problem.
"I think motivation won't be a problem for
SMU," Choice said. "We're kind of getting keyed
up for that game right now. We're looking for
ward to playing SMU, and SMU might even be a
tougher team than Indiana."
Led by transfer guard John Addison (18.4 points
a game), the Mustangs (3-2) have kicked up their
heels to wins over Wisconsin-Oshkosh, Southwes
tern and Texas-Arlington. However, they played
possibly their best ball in a 69-62 loss to Top 20-
ranked Alabama earlier this week.
"The (Penn State) coaches have scouted them
and say they're a tougher team," said Choice,
comparing this year's SMU team to last year's.
"They're better all-around intensity, quick
ness, everything."
They may be better, but they're not any young

Cohrn, SMU will start two freshmen and a sopho-
Colorado State (2-2) also has shown marked
improvement over last year's 3-24 season. The
Rams sport a balanced attack, with guard Eddie
Hughes (16.8 points per game), center-forward
Mark Steele (15 points, 7.5 rebounds) and forward
Tim Murphy (14.8 points) leading the way.
And then, there's Indiana, the sole possessor of
all those championship banners and all that
basketball fever. All of that rich tradition could be
thrown in the Lions' faces Saturday night.
There's at least one Penn State player who
thinks he can handle it.
"Craig Buffie (a native of Bloomington) has
been talking about it for quite a while," Gregory
said. "I'm sure he's going to be ready. hopefully,
it's going to rub off and everybody will he in the
right frame of mind."

By the 11th, Murata appeared sluggish and started
clutching.
Chandler's victory came in his fourth defense of the
title he took from Julian Solis a year ago in Miami.

Tokyo.

Among those eventually dropped from the big-time fciotball
world were the Ivy League colleges, which award financial aid
based on need rather than athletic ability.
"The Ivy League is in another world, all by their own; I'm in
the real world," Paterno, a graduate of Ivy member Brown
University, had said.
An illness sidelined Paterno for the next few days, but after
recuperating he headed to New York, where he attended the
induction ceremonies at the National Football Foundation and
Hall of Fame dinner. Wednesday at another dinner, he received
the Lambert Trophy, awarded to Penn State as Eastern
football's top team.
Farrell came back from filming a Bob Hope television
special in California in time to make practice Tuesday, but was
in Houston last night for the Lombardi Award presentation.
The Lions will settle down to their normal practice routine
next week, practicing nearly every day until Dec. 22.
"Next week, we'll get more in-depth, more into it," Bradley
said. "It'll be all USC and nothing else. It'll be more of our old
practice; an hour and a half, two-hour practice."
After a four-day break for Christmas, the Penn State players
will regroup Dec. 26 and fly to Phoenix. They'll stay in
Scottsdale and practice up until the day before the game. •
Southern Cal had the entire last week off and will workout
next week for three days, beginning Wednesday. The Trojans
will then take off a week for final exams and Christmas before
arriving in suburban Tempe Dec. 26.

"We've got a lot of players who haven't played
that much basketball," Cohrn said. "Penn State is
