ROSENTHAL Associated Press Writer CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Four alumni of the astronaut class of '7B and one “steely-eyed veteran” completed the second of two satellite deliveries yesterday and turned their attention to scientific and medical experiments aboard space shuttle Flight Seven. In the technocratic jargon of space, the chief flight director boasted: “We have absolutely no anomalies.” _ - Sally Ride and her four male companions were in a happy mood after releasing a $37.5 million satellite that will provide television and telephone communication for Indonesia and some of its 15,677 islands. NASA was paid $ll million for the delivery. - At the end of the day, the five astronauts and Mission Control did a comic routine straight out of the old television series “The Waltons,” passing out "good nights” to one another, including “Good night, John-Boy.” It wound up with astronaut John Fabian sending a good night wish, to his wife, Donna; a disguised voice using Jimmy Durante’s shtick of "Good night, Mrs. Calabash, wherever you are,” and Sally Ride asking “Who was that masked man?” straight out of the Lone Ranger. These exchanges were followed by the recorded sound of crickets chirping. the daily “Everything was great today,” said flight director Tommy Holloway in Houston. “We’re just perking along.” .From their radio station 184 miles high, the astronauts beamed down a popular Billy Joel tune “She’s Always a Woman to Me” perhaps to even things for Ride who was the only one not to receive Father’s Day greetings from the ground for the “dads on board.” The men on the flight have 10 children among them. Ride is matried to astronaut Steven Hawley, and has no children. The shuttle crew did some sightseeing as the ship passed over central Mexico. “It sure is clear,” said Ride, the first American woman to enjoy such a perspective. Mission control asked if Challenger’s supply of film will last until the ship returns to Cape Canaveral Friday at 6:53 a.m. EDT. “Not a chance,” said the 32- year-old astrophysicist. “I think we’ll use it up (today).” The astronauts also modeled for the television cameras. Ride, Rick Hauck, Fabian and Dr. Norman Thagard all were wearing blue T shirts depicting the shuttle and the letters TFNG, along with the slogan "We Deliver.” Mission Control explained the initials stand for “thirty-five new guys,” a reference to the astronaut class formed in 1978. The 1978 group .was the first astronauts chosen specifically to fly the shuttle craft.

I am a son of this nation. Therefore, I feel very deeply about its aspirations of justice and social solidarity.” It was his second call for calm since arriving in this troubled land. Near the end of an open-air Mass in Warsaw Friday, he took the microphone to say he hoped Poles would behave “calmly wherever the pilgrim pope goes.” There was no text of yesterday evening’s address, and officials said there would be none until this morning indicating a substantial alteration at the last minute. It was the most religious day of the pontiff’s Polish visit. But at the morning Mass he continued the political tone of his first days’ remarks, which criticized the regime and called for restoration of the independent labor movement born in the heady summer of 1980 and squelched under martial law. Many feel the pope’s first return home in 1979 inspired the summer of discontent that swept Poland the following year In his homily honoring the shrine’s 600th year, the pope said, “Freedom is given to man by God as a measure of his dignity. At the same time, however, it is given to him as a task. In fact, people can use freedom well or badly. Through it they can build or destroy.” The pontiff traced Poland’s troubled past, in which Roman Catholicism has been entwined with opposition to political oppression, both foreign and domestic. “The painful experiences of history have sharpened our sensitivity in the field of fundamental rights of man and of the nation, particularly the right to freedom, to be sovereign, to have freedom of conscience and religion and the right to human work respected,” he said. Today, John Paul will begin a potentially difficult leg of his visit that will take him to three strongholds of discontented workers. Lock Haven residents get •> reassurance from Corman By S.A. MILLER Collegian Staff Writer All is not lost in Lock Haven. Lock Haven citizens who may have been affected by toxic chemicals from the Drake Chemical Co. didn’t get the preliminary health screenings they had hoped for. Instead, they received reassurance from state Sen. J. Doyle Corman that the State Department of Health will continue to study whether the need for such screenings exists. Several weeks ago, state Rep. Russell Letterman, D-Centre County, proposed a $120,000 amendment to an $B2 million deficiency spending bill to begin the preliminary health screening of 2,000 former employees and nearby residents of Drake. The amendment passed the state House and Senate easily, but before Gov. Richard Thornburgh approved the bill, he deleted the amendment without consulting either Letterman or Corman, R- Centre County, who guided the amendment through the Senate. Thornburgh gave three reasons for “blue-lining” the amendment: the lack of evidence that dioxin exists at Lock Haven; the possiblity that the Centers for Disease Control would perform the screening; and the fact that the money would have to be spent by June 30, thd end of the fiscal year. Lock Haven citizens are asking for the health screenings to determine whether a myriad of health problems are the result of exposure to toxic chemicals Monday, June 20, 1983 Vol. 84, No. 3 16 pages University Park, Pa. 16802 Published by students of The Pennsylvania State University ■TTtllV.vfflMß 'll . ... * t: IP-* : li”' Take my resume, please Wiliam R.

Russell Letterman, D-Centre County other than dioxin manufactured at the now-closed Drake plant. Citizens complain of skin rashes, respiratory ailments, high rates of bladder cancer and birth defects. Bladder cancer is linked to contact with the chemical Beta naphthylamine (BNA), which was manufactured at the Drake site from 1947 to 1962. The effects of BNA surfaced about 15 years after exposure. In a May 5 letter to Letterman, officials of the Centers for Disease Control have already said they would not perform the screenings They reaffirmed that position at an Environmental Protection Agency public meeting in Lock Haven on May 24. The CDC letter was in response to Letterman’s request that they do the screenings as part of their work in conjunction with the EPA on Superfund sites. In response to Thornburgh’s statement that the money would have to be spent by June 30, Letterman'said he had already begun spending the funds “15 days Please see LOCK, Page 16.
