' Daisey, chairman of the senate transportation advisory committee, said under the present system the loop takes students to parties and bars, but leaves them there after midnight. Therefore, students who must walk home could be in danger because they often return from parties drunk or alone, he said. 'University administrators have agreed to try the extention for two weeks if USG guarantees the loop will not lose money during that period, Daisey said. Last night the, senate passed a bill promising to cover the loop's operating expenses for the al tered hours if the experiment fails.

Fonda, Hepburn named best performers By 808 THOMAS Associated Press Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) Henry Fonda and Katherine Hepburn won Oscars for their co-starring roles as husbind and wife in "On Golden Pond" at the 54th Academy Awards last night, and "Chariots of Fire," was named best picture. For the 76-year-old Fonda, it was his first Oscar for acting. It was the 72-year-old Hepburn's fourth a record number for acting in a leading role. "Charitts," a British film that won critical acclaim, had not been considered among top contenders for best picture of 1981. It told the story of two runners one a Jew from Oxford, the other a Scottish missionary competing in the Olympic Games of 1924. Maureen Stapleton, who played crusading Commu nist Emma in "Reds," and Sir John Gielgud, a gen tleman's gentleman in "Arthur," won Oscars for supporting roles. Elk County Democrat vies for seat By SCOTT G. OTT Collegian Staff Writer A Democrat from Elk County Afirho calls himself "a working man and a conserva tive" will announce this week that he is running for Congress in . U.S. Rep. Wil ham F. Clinger's 23rd District. Joseph Janies Calla Jr., 24,_president of the Johnsonburg Borough Council, said, "I know what it is to pay taxes and I feel that there's a need for a change to get back to what the people want." Calla said after a couple of terms in Congress, some representatives tend to "lose touch with reality." "Raiders of the Lost Ark" took an early lead with foul technical awards. Steven Spielberg's fast-paced, tong ue-in-cheek adventure film patterned after the serials of the 1940 s won Oscars for sound, editing, art direction and visual effects. Warren Beatty was winner for his direction of "Reds," marking the second year in a row that a star took a directorial award; last year Robert Redford won for "Ordinary People." "Mephisto," a Hungarian film about an actor's rise in Nazi Germany, was awarded the Oscar as best foreign film. And "Arthur's Theme" from "Arthur" won the award as best original song. Actor John Travolta presented this year's special Oscar to Barbara Stanwyck for her long and distin guished acting career. After a standing ovation, the 74-year-old actress thanked the film crews she worked with and added a special tribute to the late Williann Holden, whose career she helped start in 1938's "Golden Boy." in district "I know' for a fact he (Clinger) is starting to change," Calla said. "I think his voting record shows he's . his own man." Calla said he will file a nominating petition tomorrow and is "virtually as sured of the Democatic nomination" if he remains unopposed in the May 18 prima ry. "I've always been interested in poli tiCs," Calla said, "I feel I have the same qualifications as Clinger had when he ran for his first term." In September Calla will be 25 years old the legal minimum age for a congres sional candidate. Looking for low cost CHARTER FLIGHTS to Europe or Israel? (Unbeatable Rates!)

Officer Mark Kinley said a man called police at 5:42 p.m. and said a bomb was planted in Pattee. After checking with his supervisors and library adminstrators, Kinley said, "no one advised (me) that .the library should be closed. They all said it should be kept open." Stuart Forth, dean of University libraries, said University procedure for this type of threat does not include evacuation. She said: "I love him very much, and I miss him. He always wished that I would get the Oscar. And so tonight, my Golden Boy, you got your wish." The 56-year-old Stapleton, who was previously nomi nated three times in the supporting category, clutched her Oscar and said: "I'm thrilled, happy, delighted sober." She promised to be brief, then thanked Warren Beatty, Diane Keaton, and the rest of the "Reds" cast and crew, her hometown of Troy, N.Y., her children and' friends "and everybody I ever met in my entire life." The 54th annual awards proved festive, despite show ers that forced some stars to don raincoats over glamo rous formal wear. The 2,500 people outside the Los Angeles Music Center greeted their favorites with cheers with one of the biggest ovations going to Jane Fonda. Henry Fonda planned to watch the nationally tele vised ceremonies on ABC at his Bel-Air home, and his daughter Jane accepted the award for him. "I suppose there's always the possi bility (of danger)," he said, "but (an explosion has) never happened." Police responded to the threat less than 10 minutes after the man called, Kinley said. Officers searched Pattee and an announcement was made over the loudspeakers announcing the threat. Also, warning posters were posted at all entrances to the library and at all major inside doorways. Forth said he did not know if the threat was made by a student. But, he said, "this is the kind of thing that destroys the students' credibility in wanting to participate in the affairs of the University, if it was a student."
