concerts in Rec Hall, Leet said. The
heavy backdrop curtain restricts the
hanging of sound equipment that
some bands need. Removing the cur
tain would cost $lO,OOO. Also, sound
levels in Rec Hall cannot go above 90-
95 decibels, thus limiting which bands
can appear.
In other business, the senate voted
against a bill that would require the
USG business department to get ma
jority senate approval for contracts
exceeding $5OO. The exception would
be existing or recurring programs
such as buses, calendars and movies.
The Board of Directors now has the
authority to implement new projects
without Senate approval.
USG Senator Darnell Daisey, spon
sor of the bill, objected to a depart
ment that represents USG being
allowed to sign contracts without
Senate approval.
Senator Chuck Sedlack(i objected
because of the long time it could take
senate to approve a project.
Staurday nights.
The agreement was signed last
week by Daisey and the Vice Pres
ident for Business Ralph E. Zilly.
A communications failure be
tween Daisey and Zilly's office
created confusion as to the dead
line for the trial extension. The
two meet yesterday and cleared
up the confusion.

Top Collegian posts to be filled
By CHRIS KAY
Collegian Staff Writer
Two executive student positions of The Daily
Collegian editor and business manager will
be selected by the Board of Directors of Collegian
Inc. tonight.
Three candidates have applied for the edi
torship, which will run from Spring Term 1983
through Fall Semester 1983. Brian Bowers (Bth
journalism), campus editor; Suzanne Cassidy
(Bth-journalism), town editor; and Jacqueline
Martino (9th-journalism), news editor; have
applied to succeed this year's Editor Phil Gutis.
To be considered for the post, the candidates
were required to submit proposals on how they
would improve The Daily Collegian.
Bowers' main goal as editor would be to build a
good ,training around for future reporters and
editors so they can provide their community with
a high-quality product.
He suggests that reporting and writing semi
nars be strongly encouraged to help reporters
solve their problems. Bowers also said good
communication between departments of the pa
per should be stressed in order to understand how
Hearing will be held to set bail in Vedam case
Centre County Judge Charles C. Brown Jr. yes
terday reversed his September decision and ruled
that Subramanyam Vedam, 21, a State College man
charged with first degree murder, is entitled to
bail.
Centre County Court Administrator Larry Bick
ford said yesterday he would schedule a hearing as
soon as possible at which Brown will determine the
amount of bail.
Vedam, who has lived in State College for most of
his life, is charged with the December 1980 shooting
of Thomas E.P. Kinser. Kinser's body was found by

Keep yourself opaE to new ideas
each side operates and the problems they encoun
ter.
One main point stressed by Cassidy is the need
for a more motivated and disciplined attitude in
the newsroom. She thinks many staff members
treat their responsibilities to the paper in ' a
routine fashion.
She wants the Collegian staff to start working
together to make sure a quality newspaper is
produced. To establish this, she suggests a regu
lar personnel evaluation, a management and
journalistic skills workshop; and a switch back to
a more traditional staff structure. She also sug
gests more of a long-term focus for the readers'
representative.
Martino said she would like to see a tighter
organizational structure in the Collegian staff. As
editor, she would divide the campus and town
sections of the paper into smaller beats with one
editor in charge of each.
She would also like the Board of Opinion to be
restructured by having the head of each major
department sit on the board. In addition, some
reporters with seniority would also b'ecome mem
bers. The Board of Opinion, which determines
editorial policies, •is now composed of the two
editorial editors and other staff members se-
two hikers on Sept. 27, 1981, in Harris Township
near Tussey Mountain Ski Resort. His trial is
scheduled to begin Jan.. 31 in Centre County Court.
Brown had denied Vedam bail last fall because
he was satisfied that the prosecution had presented
a sufficient case in proving the existence of an
aggravating factor in bringing the charge of first
degree murder.
Aggravating factors include, but are not limited
to, killing by means of torture, killing by contract
and homicides committed in the course of a felony.

lected by the editor.
Martino also said establishing a good rapport
with the incoming University President Bryce
Jordan is very important. She wants to develop a
working relationship with him, and have access
to information that "has often passed (the Colle
gian) by."
The only applicant for business manager, Ju
dith Smith (Bth-advertising), assistant business
manager, is scheduled to be approved by the
board to succeed Business Manager Paul Rudoy.
Smith proposes that the two district managers
on the business staff be eliminated. In their place
she would substitute one assistant sales man
ager.
She recommends putting a term-standing re
quirement on all applicants for assistant man
ager positions no older than sixth or seventh
term. She believes this would eliminate, the
chances of both the manager and the assistant
graduating at the same time.
Motivation of staff members is also an impor
tant point raised by Smith. She states that keep
ing morale up and having sales people alert,
participating, and feeling needed by The Daily
Collegian is a way to increase revenue by more
efficient fuhctioning.•
Defense attorney Amos Goodall contested the no
bail ruling in September, arguing that under the
state constitution his client is entitled to bail
because an aggravating factor had not been shown
in Vedam's preliminary hearing.
Last month, state Superior Court Judge Edmund
Spaeth reviewed the transcript of Vedam's prelimi
nary hearing and ruled that Brown must reconsider
bail, unless the prosecution proved the existence of
an aggravating factor. • •

Dorm fee
discussed by ARHS
By LAURIE JONES
Collegian Staff Writer
The Association of Residence
Hall Students last night discussed
a possible increase in the advance
payment for dorm contract appli
cations from $45 to $75.
William H. McKinnon, assistant
vice president of Housing and
Food Service, attended the meet
ing to explain his proposal which
would apply to Fall Term 1984 if
approved.
- McKinnon said about 250 stu
dents with dorm contracts do not
return each fall and fail to notify
the University ahead of time. If
these students were offered an
incentive to inform housing that
they would not be returning, McK
innon believes that more would do
so.
"Since they get nothing back,
students don't tell us (when they
aren't coming back) because
there is no incentive," McKinnon
said.

increase
The space reserved for these
students could then be given to
other students who would other
wise be placed in temporary hous
ing for a few weeks. McKinnon
said about 200 more students could
be placed directly into permanent
housing this way.
The incentive McKinnon wants
to offer these students is a partial
refund of their advance payments.
The policy now in effect does not
offer any refund the student
loses the whole $45. McKinnon
wants to refund the student $25 out
of a $75 payment if the student
notifies housing before June 15
that he is not returning. After this
date, the student would forfeit the
whole amount.
ARHS President Laura Cerar
disagreed.
"I don't see how you can charge
1200 students an•additional $3O at
this time of the year (advance
payments are due in February) to
benefit 200 students," she said.
Soviets accuse Reagan of insincerity
MOSCOW (AP) The Kremlin leadership said
yesterday that if U.S.-Soviet relations are to im
prove, President Reagan must follow his own
advice about matching words with deeds.
The statement was • made in an editorial for
today's edition of the Communist Party newspaper
Pravda, of which the official news agency Tass
carried excerpts last night.
The editorial recounted previous Soviet argu
ments that the United States is to blame for
problems in Afghanistan, Poland and the Middle
East, then noted that Reagan recently said in a
radio address that the Soviets must match moder
ate words with moderate behavior to improve
relations with the United States.
Reagan said he hoped for an "era of genuine
stability" and added tha,t the United States does not
insist that the Soviets abandon their standing as a
superpower or their "legitimate national inter
ests."
The Pravda commentary said: "Np denying it,
these are reasonable views. Were American policy
based on such concepts, it would be possible to
speak with confidence about positive prospects of
talks between the U.S.S.R. and the United States on
any level.
"But the hitch is exactly that almost all the
statements and practical deeds of the American
administration are far from these reasonable
thoughts."
The commentary said American policy goes

countries could make an important contribution to
