County part of national cancer survey
By LORRAINE WILLIAMS
Collegian Staff Writer
How many X-rays have you had? How many times a
month do you have insomnia? Have you ever chewed
tobacco? How much stress are you under? Do you use
mouthwash often? Do you work near asbestos?
By the end of this month, more than 470 Centre Coun
tians will have joined more than a million other Ameri
cans in answering questions about their family hiStory,
health history, personal diet and habits and environmen
tal conditions as part of the American Cancer Society's
Cancer Prevention Study 11.
The goal of the study, which began earlier this month, is
to gather data on the causes and preventions of cancer and
other life-threatening diseases, said Jane Lindstrom,
chairman of the study for Centre County.
To be eligible to participate in the study, a family must

have at least one member aged 45 or older. Other family
members participating in the study must be at least 30
years old. Also, anyone taking the survey must plan on
living in the area for several years because the survey will
be updated every two years.
The society has not yet decided when this study will end
it could last six to 10 years, depending on the quality of
feedback the survey receives.
If someone who participated in the survey dies, the
researchers will check the records for the cause of death,
and that information will be integrated into the survey.
The study is a follow-up to Cancer Prevention Study I
that began in 1959 and was updated every two years until
1972. That survey also asked questions about the personal
health habits of its participants.
The first study was a great success because it revealed
the dangers of cigarette smoking and linked smoking with
cancer, Lindstrom said.

Balloons to soar tomorrow
Spirits will soar at tomorrow's
Penn State-Nebraska game and so
will balloons, thanks to Alpha Kap
pa Lambda fraternity's seventh
annual Balloon Derby.
The fraternity, with the help of
Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, is
raising money for 'the March of
Dimes by selling tickets. Part of
each ticket will be attached to a
helium balloon and sent flying
during pre-game festivities.
The ticket that gets mailed back
from' the farthest distance wins
$lOO for the sender and a $25 bond
for the returner, co-chairman
Dave Fencil said
Balloon tickets can be pur
chased from members of Alpha
Kappa Lambda, 339. Fraternity
Row, or Kappa Kappa Gamma
anytime before 1 p.m. tomorrow
and on the HUB ground floor be
tween second and sixth periods
today, Fencil said.
The goal for this year's Ballon
Derby is $1.,500 to $2,000, he said,
and the expected number of bal
loons to be sent off Saturday is
between 4,000 and 5,000.

No extended hours
for dinner tomorrow
Unless the Cornhuskers live up to
their name and supply a picnic, stu
dents who normally eat in the dining
halls will have to leave tomorrow's
Penn State-Nebraska game if they
don't want to pay for their dinner.
Because keeping the dining halls
open late would be too expensive,
dinner will be served at the same I . '
time as usual, said William N. Curl
ey, director. of food services. The
dining halls close at 6 Pm. during the
weekend.
"One of the problems that we run
into is overtime," he said.

CDT files petition
about Vedam case
By GEORGE MATTAR
Collegian Staff Writer
Seeking the public's right to
know and guiranteeing freedom
of the press, The Centre Daily
Times has filed a petition chal
lenging a private filing of an omni
bus pre-trial motion in the state's
first degree murder charge
against Subramanyam Vedam, 20,
of State College.
Omnibus pre-trial motions must
be filed as a package; Vedam's
attorney, Amos Goodall, said.
Goodall said omnibus motions in
clude, but are not limited to, a
request for a change of venue
(moving the trial to a different
court) or a change of venire
(which is the selection of an out-of
county jury). Because of the pri
vate filing of the motion, its exact
contents have not disclosed.
In addition to making the omni
bus motion public record, the CDT
wants Centre County Judge
Charles C. Brown Jr. to open all
pre-trial hearings pertaining to
the case.
Specifically, the CDT opposes
Goodall's private filing of an omni
bus motion without going through
the prothonotary's office the
normal route for such documents,
where they becomd public record.

CDT Executive Editor William
Welch said the paper wants noth
ing more or nothing less than the
law states the public is entitled to.
Brown has scheduled a hearing
for the CDT's petition on Monday
afternbon.
The 1980 Pennsylvania Supreme
Court decision of Commonwealth
vs. Hayes established that pre-tri
al hearings be open unless all
other alternatives have been ex
hausted.
Attorney Samuel E. Klein of
Philadelphia said the object is to
assure Vedam a fair trial without
the glare of prejudicial publicity.
Klein said some alternatives
include, but are not limited to, the
judge's consideration of the pre
trial publicity. to date determining
if it has been factual or sensatio
nal. In addition, Klein specifically
mentioned the pre-trial question
ing of jurors, known as voir dire,
to see if their opinions on the case
have been influenced by the pub
licity.
.Vedam has been in Centre Coun
ty prison since July 19 awaiting his
trial, scheduled to start Oct. 25. He
has already been denied bail and a
writ of habeas corpus by Brown.
Vedam is charged with the De
cember 1980 gunshot slaying of
Thomas E.P. Kinser of Boalsburg.

Day Dreams: Deliveries with a flair
By JANICE GABLE
Collegian Staff Writer
If you're looking for a new way to
celebrate a special occasion, a new
delivery service in State College can
help.
"Deliveries with a flair" is the
motto for Day Dreams Inc., a compa
ny that will deliver singing tele
grams, champagne, chocolate or
just about anything to friends and
relatives on any occasion.
The delivery service was founded
in Philadelphia by Cheryl'Waronker
(9th-individual and family studies)
and Sue Haftel (10th-therapeutic rec
reation) in June 1981.
Waronker and Haftel ran the busi
ness in Philadelphia during summer
recesses and term breaks, but this
fall decided to bring the business to
Yom Kippur begins Sunday at dusk
By MARCY MERMEL
Collegian Staff Writer
Beginning Sunday at dusk, members of the
Jewish faith will be observing one of the most
solemn days of the Jewish calendar year Yom
Kippur (the Day of Atonement):
Jeffrey Marker, rabbi of the Hillel Foundation,
224 Locust Lane, said Yom Kippur is the last of the
Days of Awe, a 10-day period of reflection.
The days begin with Rosh Hashanah, a two-day
observance of the Jewish New Year. The year 5743
began at dusk Sept. 17.
Rosh Hashanah is more joyful and is celebrated
with feasting, he said, but Yom Kippur is a day of
fasting and reflection.
During the Days of Awe, Jews reflect on how they

State College with them.
Already, Haftel said, "business hasp
picked up incredibly."
So far, she and her partner handle
the work by themselves and still have
time for studying, she said. Most of
the work involves planning that can
be done at their convenience and
doesn't interfere with classes.
"We basically started this thing to
make money," Waronker said. "We
started by singing telegrams and
later added the gift-buying service.
We put together whatever anybody
wants, within reason."
Neither Waronker nor Haftel know
exactly how the idea originated.
When one of them received flowers
from a florist, the seed was planted in
their minds and grew until they de
cided to open the business, Haftel
said.
have acted during the past year and consider how
they can change, Marker said,
For example, Jews believe that if they have done
something wrong to people, "you have a responsi
blity to approach them, if you haven't done that
before, and try to heal the breach," he said.
Those observing Yom Kippur abstain from not
only food and drink but from other pleasures such
as sex. The day is meant to be dedicated only to
considering the person's relationship to God and
others and deciding how to improve that
relationship, he said.
Services for the holiday will begin at 7 p.m
Sunday at Hillel, he said.
Monday services will be held from 9:30 a.m. to
2:30 p.m. and from 5 p.m. to sundown. Following
the Monday night service, Hillel will sponsor a

The demand was great for their
unique delivery services in Philadel
phia and Day Dreams soon caught on.
At first business was limited to
singing telegrams, but then expanded
at the request of their clients. Bou
quets of helium balloons became a
popular item, as did champagne or
chocolate delivered in a shower of
confetti.
The client chooses what type of gift
he would like sent and the price range
they can afford and Waronker and
Haftel buy, wrap and deliver the gift.
They also mail gifts to people who
live out of town.
Waronker and Haftel write an origi
nal poem or song to send along with
each gift. The client also has the
option of writing his own poem.

legethas been limited to delivering

small gifts or singing telegrams, the
service has much more to offer. For
example, in Philadelphia many of the
clients were businessmen who asked
that gifts be bought for their wives,
friends and associates at holidays,
Waronker said.
In some instances they have orga
nized parties for a client. They begin
by picking a party theme, then deco
rating and preparing food appropri
ate for the theme. Last summer, Star
Wars and Wonder Woman were the
most popular themes at birthday
parties for the younger set.
They have also hosted five-course
meals • and French meals with
"French-style, American food," and
they organize group picnics. The two
of them do most of the work for such
affairs but occasionally friends and
family help.

meal to break the fast. The dinner will cost $2 and
reservations, which are preferred but not required,
can be made by calling 237-2408, he said.
The service will combine required traditional
prayers with modern interpretations, Marker said.
For example, there will be more English than in
most conservative services because the congrega
tion includes people who cannot read or understand
Hebrew.
This year will be the first time in four years that
Hillel has not combined with the Jewish Commu
nity Center, 620 E. Hamilton'Ave., to observe the
first service of Yom Kippur in Eisenhower Audito
rium, JCC Rabbi Jeffrey Eisenstat said.
During those four years Eisenstat served as
rabbi for both congregations, but Hillel hired an
outside rabbi for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
