18—The Daily Collegian Tuesday, April 10, 1984 Candidate focuses on political morality By MIKE NETHERLAND Collegian Staff Writer Restoring morality to U.S. gov ernment is the cornerstone of the Lyndon H. Laßouche Jr. cam paign in his third bid for the Demo cratic presidential nomination, campaign representatives said yesterday. Like the other Democratic can didates, Laßouche's rhetoric cen ters on ousting President Reagan partly because of his involvement with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, said Warren Hammerman, chairman of the National Democratic Policy Com mittee, a political acjion commit tee that is endorsing the candidate. "Ronald Reagan pledged never to let Henry Kissinger back into government," Hammerman said in a telephone interview yester day. Reagan, he added, is also to be condemned for ducking an op portunity to denounce Colorado Gov. nichard Lamm for his statement that old people have "a duty to die." At a news conference outside the State College Municipal Building, a Laßouche representative de scribed the candidate's policies of aggressive agriculture and tech nology-stimulating programs. Pittsburgh school teacher Joe Bil lington told reporters that such programs would enable the world to realize a greater standard of living. An example of such a program would be a project connecting bodies of water from the Great Lakes to the Ohio River and the Mississippi River to form a contin uous ribbon of water from Canada to Mexico. The waterway would be used for irrigation in Mexico and the Midwest United States as well 'as for transportation. Laßouche is notorious for his study and promotion of waterway development in China and South east Asia.

Supporting nuclear fusion and laser technology is also key to bringing morality back to presi dential policy, Billington said. The nuclear fusion process, known as the proton-proton reaction which fuels the sun, forces heavy iso topes of hydrogen to collide, cre ating tremendous heat to make steam. The isotopes, deuterium and tritium are found in water. This cheap and abundant power, Billington said, will further human development. Henry Kissinger, he said, represents a group of tycoons bent on dominating the world's food and technology markets by pursuing anti-industrial and anti human development policies as a means to that end. The' Pennsylvania primary is the first one Laßouche has en tered, Hammerman said. La- Rouche deliberately waited until now, banking on the chance that some candidates would drop out of the race, Hammerman said. Hammerman cited a popularity poll conducted by Pittsburgh radio station WKQV that put him strong ly ahead of Gary Hart, Walter Mondale and Jesse Jackson. A major setback for the campaign, however, was his exclusion from the presidential debates in Pitts burgh last Thursday by the League of Women Voters. He was denied by Pittsburgh Court of Common Pleas Judge Silvestri Silvestri a preliminary injunction forcing the League to include him in the debates. On the same day, Hammerman said, the state Su preme Court rejected his request for a hearing on the matter. The Federal Elections Commis sion only recently permitted the Laßouche campaign to collect its matching campaign funds. By law, any registered candidate that raises $20,000 ($5,000 from four states) is eligible, for matching funds from the government. USG Senate sets up fund for future, approves constitution for the USG Supreme Court. He will begin imme diately. Jeff Goldsmith of Appalachian Youth Service and Centre County Youth Service Bureau pre sented the senate with a plaque in appreciation of the more than $2,500 its members raised last fall in a walkathon for those charities. The proceeds benefited Nittany House, a group home for de pendent and delinquent boys in State College and the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program of Centre County.

Arlene Campoli, who represents OTIS at regular State College Plan ning Commission meetings, said the special planning commission meeting will be at 7:30 in the State College Municipal Building. Both Campoli and OTIS adviser Charlene Harrison said written com ments from borough residents on proposed noise ordinance revisions are welcome in advance of the meet ing. Harrison added that anyone who wishes to make oral comments on proposed revisions will be granted five minutes during the meeting to express his or her views. In other business, Carolyn Roscioli, IFC gets static on noise ordinance from planning commission Many of the Interfraternity Coun cil's suggestions for 'revisions of the noise ordinance have been rejected by the State College Planning Corn mission,,the IFC president said last night. "(The Planning Commission) pret ty much shot down all of our ideas, but the only positiVe thing . . . is that (the legal decibel level) will remain at 55 and will not drop down to 50," Maury Billig said at the organiza tion's meeting at Sigma Nu fraterni- . ty, 3401 . Burrowes Road. The commission's previous propo sal was to keep the decibel level at 55 before 11 p.m. in the area where many fraternities are located and drbp it to 50 decibels after that time, Billig said after the meeting. The IFC proposal will go to the State College Municipal Council after the planning commission finishes re viewing it, he said. IFC also voted to arrange a pro gram on how to prevent burglaries in fraternity houses. Paul Blahusch, IFC executive vice president, said plans are being made for Dave Caster of the State College Police Depart ment to talk to fraternity presidents on how to lock up certain valuable items for the summer when the fra ternities are closed or taking board ers. Caster frequently talks to State College residents about measures to prevent theft in their homes, Bla husch said. Billig also said drawings for dormi tory releases will be held at 5:15 tonight in 202 HUB. Dormitory re leases relieve those students inter ested in joining and living in a fraternity from their dorm contracts. Each house that submits a request will automatically receive one of the 65 dormitory releases and drawings will be held on the remaining con _ tracts.

Roscioli said the event will help the representatives inform Common wealth campus students of the serv ices OTIS offers. She added that the committee will try to schedule the event on the same day as the first fall meeting of the Council of Branch Campus Student Governments, which will be determined at a later date.
