B—The Daily Collegian Thursday, Sept.. 6, 1984 USEC proposes to move gardens By KIM AJECK and STEVE WILSON Collegian Staff Writers The University Student Executive Committee will announce its official position on the proposed building of laboratories at Buckhout Gardens at 6:30 tonight in 227 HUB, the USEC chairman said. Adam Levinson, also the Under graduate Student Government presi dent, said USEC's stance will be presented to the University Board of Trustees during the trustee's meeting tomorrow. Many students have expressed con cern about the gardens, which may be torn down to make room for new biology labs. A USEC subcommittee decided Yesterday to propose that the Univer sity relocate, rather than eliminate the gardens. Five. USEC members and four administrators came up with the proposal, to be recommend ed to the entire USEC organization tonight. Levinson said the subcommittee's plan involves relocating the gardens in the vicinity of Birch Cottage. "It's feasible to leave the garden 100 percent intact," he said. "I'm convinced that this is the best way to solve the problem." Richard E. Grubb, senior vice pres ident for administration, said many alternatives were considered before the proposal was suggested. "I think it is a very reasonable thing to do," he said. He added that the gardens would be much more visible at the new location and people would be better able to enjoy them. Levinson, along with Graduate Stu dent Association President and USEC member Jeff Dooling, will also attend a University trustees meeting today and expect to report on the outcome at tonight's USEC meeting, Levinson said. In addition, USEC will discuss pos sible revisions of the Associated Stu dent Activities budget guidelines to make the budget more equitable to student groups, Levinson said. Levinson added that USEC mem bers will update the committee on the voter registration drive.

Mental health clinic to open soon By TERRY MUTCHLER Collegian Staff Writer As far. as James Dalzell is concerned, the Meadows Clinic Psychiatric Hospital is something that was long overdue. Dalzell, a Meadows Clinic administrator, said one of the main reasons the clinic has been so desperately needed is that, in the past, there was no facility to treat people seeking psychiatric help. "Many clinicians were getting frustrated at sending people (needing this type of treatment) to Philly or New York," he said. "It was either that or many just didn't receive any treatment at all and when they did, the situation had deteriorated greatly," he added. The clinic, located between Boalsburg and Centre Hall on Route 45, will open at the end of this month, Dalzell said. . . Although the fee to stay at Meadows.

Although there are differences, he said he is hopeful both institutions will be able to work together. "We hope, for the sake of the community, that both institutions will complement one another," he said. In spite of the purpose and the 'need of such a clinic in this area, Dalzell said there were initial concerns about the effect the secluded 53-acre institution would have on the area. "Initially, there were concerns by neighbors, such as what would it do to the environment," he said.

The announcement was made at a hastily called news conference at the Seahawks' offices in Kirkland, after Harris, 34, flew into Seattle- Tacoma International Airport with his agent, Bart Beier of Pittsburgh. "This was the worst-kept secret in football," said Mike McCormack, president and general manager of the Seahawks. "We're just real happy to have Franco here," said Seattle head Coach Chuck Knox. "I've been a big admirer of his for many years." "I hope I 104 good in blue," a smiling Harris said. "I'm real ex cited about being here. I like the enthusiasm and attitude here." Asked whether he would be able to play Sunday against the San Diego Chargers in Seattle's second regular season game, Harris re plied, "hopefully. I feel good. I feel in good shape and ready to go." Harris played all 12 of his pre vious NFL seasons in Pittsburgh, where he amassed 11,950 yards rushing and 91 touchdowns on 2,881 carries in 165 games. But Harris, caught in a contract squabble with the Steelers, was released by Pittsburgh on Aug. 20. None of the NFL's 27 other clubs picked him up on waivers. "That thought did pass my mind," the 6-foot-2, 225-pound Har ris said when asked whether he thought he wasn't going to get a chance to break Brown's all-time record. "Will I get a chance to play? I didn't know for sure." Theokas new A-10 commissioner EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) Charlie Thebkas, who has spent most of his business career in the front office of professional sports teams, was named commissioner of the Atlantic 10 Conference, the league announced yesterday. Theokas, 45, is the conference's second commissioner, replacing Dr. Leland Byrd, who.has held the position the last five years and retired in May for personal rea sons. The appointment, which be comes effective next Tuesday, was unanimously approved by the league's athletic directors. The conference consists of Penn State, Rutgers, Duquesne, Rhode Island, St. Bonaventure, St. Jo seph, Temple, George Washington, Massachusetts and West Virginia. Theokas will be introduced to the media at 10 a.m. Tuesday at Giants Stadium. That begins a city-by 7 city tour of all markets represented by the Atlantic 10 members. "The conference is very pleased to have someone of Charlie's expe rience as our new commissioner," said Frank Mclnerney, athletic director at Massachusetts and head of the search committee. "We feel that Charlie has proven him self in numerous areas of athletic administration over over the past years and will certainly be an asset to the Atlantic 10 conference." Theokas said his first task would be to meet the conference mem bers and keep the league moving forward. "The total commitment shown by the directors towards the contin ued development of the Atlantic 10 Conference is evident and encour aging so that we can establish ourselves a's one of the strongest and most respected conferences in Reagan's faith rewarded by Cubs By BRENDA C. COLEMAN Associated Press Writer CHICAGO President Reagan says he's always believed in miracles and that his faith is being re warded by the Chicago Cubs, now closing in on a chance to win their first National League championship title since 1945 "All my life I've believed in miracles . . . And now, after 39 years of waiting, the miracle is happening," the president told the Economic Club of Chicago yesterday. "The Cubs are on their way to a National League pennant. "I have to tell you what that means to me personal ly," Reagan said. "I was broadcasting the Cubs in 1935 when the only mathematical chance they had to win the pennant was to win the last 21 games of the season. And they did." Former Pittsburgh Steeler running back Franco Harris leaves a plane in Seattle yesterday on his way to a Seahawks' practice where the team announced it had signed the 13-year veteran to a one-year contract. Harris, 34, is just 363 yards away from breaking Jim Brown's . all-time career rushing record. Neither the Seahawks nor Beier would disclose terms of the con tract. Harris said he signed a one-year contract with the Seahawks. Beier, a lawyer, said he worked out the deal in a 90-minute meeting with McCormack yesterday. "The contract I negotiated was comparable to the one I just about negotiated with the Steelers," Beier said. The Steelers reportedly offered Harris $557,000 to play football with them this season. Harris was in the option year of a contract that would have paid him $385,000. "As it turned out, I'm playing football and I'm happy playing foot- the country," he said. Theokas has been working as a consultant since June, when he resigned his two-year term as vice president of business affairs for the New Jersey Generals of the USFL. He was the general manager of the New Jersey Nets of the NBA from 1978 to 1981. He added that "if you share my belief that all things come together for good, then how can we not believe the success of the Cubs bodes well for our nation's heartland?" During an address focusing on economic issues, the president drew several rounds of laughter with refer ences to the Cubs' patchy history over the past half century, since the days when Reagan was a radio announcer in Des Moines recreating the play-by-play from Western Union ticker tape. The Cubs' history includes pennants in 1935, 1938 and 1945. Reagan said their 21-game streak in 1935 "still stands today as an unequalled record." "When I'm in the presence of such greatness, how can I feel initimidated by a little challenge like running for president?" ball," Harris said. "Our goal here now is to go to the Super Bowl." Beier said, "I always thought Franco would get a chance. Why wasn't he picked up on waivers? Well, a lot of teams were set al ready and the word was he had a good salary offer from - the Steelers. You're talking a half million dol lars. If the Steelers weren't going to give him that kind of money . . . "But everything did work out, didn't it?" Beier said he initially talked about a two-year contract with the Steelers, but then it became clear to him that his client did not fit in the Pittsburgh picture for the 1985 sea son. Charles Theokas A former professional football player with the Baltimore Colts, Boston Patriots and New York Jets, Theokas began his front office career as vice president and gener al manager of the Lowell Generals of the Atlantic Coast Football Con ference. He later served as general manager of the Westchester Bulls "The Steelers wanted to give us a one-year contract with an option year, but my client felt hd didn't want to sign it based on the fact he didn't figure in their plans for 1985," Beier said. The Seahawks' offense received a shattering blow in Monday's 33-0 regular season opening victory over the Cleveland Browns when Warner suffered ligament damage to his right knee on the Kingdome's Astro- Turf. Warner, Seattle's first-round draft choice from Penn State in 1983, led the Seahawks to the Amer ican Football Conference title game last season and captured the AFC rushing championship • Paterno divided over rule changes By JOHN SEVERANCE Collegian Sports Writer In the past few years, a lot of rules have been implemented that have helped open up the passing game. But before the 1984 football season, the National Collegiate Athletic Association came to the aid of linebackers, cornerbacks and safeties. From now on during defensive pass interference penalties, officials will step off a 15-yard penalty. Previously, the ball was placed at the point of the infraction. The NCAA also passed a new kickoff rule. On any ball kicked out of the endzone, the ball will be placed on the 30-yard line instead of the 20. Penn State Head Football Coach Joe Paterno said yesterday at his weekly press conference that he supports the new pass interference rule, but dislikes the new kickoff regulation. "I like the pass ,interference rule," Paterno said, "because it finally swings the pendulum from rules that have helped the pass offense. Everything in the past few years have opened up the passing game. "I don't like the new kickoff rule," Paterno added. "I like the intent of the new kickoff rule. I like the idea of Cards rally past Phils, 6-5 By PAUL LeBAR AP Sports Writer ST. LOUIS Willie McGee went 5-for-5 and singled home the win ning run with two outs in the bot tom of the ninth inning, capping a four-run rally last night that lifted the St. Louis Cardinals over the Philadelphia Phillies 6-5. Philadelphia starter Jerry Koos man had allowed seven hits and took a 5-2 lead into the ninth, but left after Terry Pendleton led off with a single. Reliever Larry Andersen got Lonnie Smith to bounce into a field er's choice, and Smith then stole second. Smith took third on a groundout, and after Steve Braun walked, reliever Al Holland took over. Bill Lyons, a .080 hitter, singled home Smith to make it 5-3, and Darrell Porter followed with a sin gle that loaded the bases. Andy Van Slyke then singled home the tying runs, and McGee won it for St. Louis with•his opposite-fiel sin gle. Mets 4 Pirates 2 PITTSBURGH (AP) Ray Knight's sixth-inning infield single drove in one run and another scored when Pittsburgh shortstop Ron Wotus threw wildly on the 'Miracles' no longer needed as USA awaits Canada Cup By JOHN F. BONFATTI AP Sports Writer BUFFALO, N.Y. After years of being second-class , citizens whose victories in the internation al ice hockey arena were seen as "miracles," Team USA is serving notice that America no longer needs heavenly intervention. "If they haven't realized it yet, they will in a couple of weeks," said goalie Tom Barrassb. "I think we're considered one of the top hockey teams in the world." Team USA, comprised of NHL players, hopes to further close the gap between the U.S. and the international elite with a victory tonight against a traditional pow er, Czechoslovakia, at Memorial Auditorium. It is the only game in the six-nation Canada Cup series to be played outside of Canada. "It's nice to get back where we're going to have some people yelling for us," said Coach Bob Johnson." And I think the players will really appreciate it because they've worked hard." Hard work and one of the most talented American teams ever as sembled have combined to put Team USA in second place after two games, tied with Canada at 1- 0-1 following a 4-4 tie with the Canadians Monday. The Soviet Union, Olympic champions at Sarajevo last win ter, has won both of its games to lead the Canada Cup standings in the round-robin tournament. Johnson said this team was "better organized and playing more as a team" than any other previous American Canada Cup squad. No matter what the U.S. does in this tournament, Johnson thinks the Americans will field an even stronger team for the next tour- trying to get people to return kicks. But I don't like the way they did it." Paterno said the new pass interference rule will probably hurt the really good passing teams. "People who throw deep figured three things can happen," Paterno said. "The guy either catches the ball, pass interference is called or very rarely an interception is thrown. If you're not going to get the deep pass interference, teams might start thinking twice about it." Paterno said he has had the feeling in other years that poorer teams have won football games because on plays when two players fight for the ball near the end zone, the official might feel he has to drop the flag. He said he realizes there is a temptation to say the defensive back is going to deliberately interfere when he is beaten by a receiver. But Paterno said it's too tough for a cornerback or safety to deliberately inter fere if he is already beaten. As for the new kickoff rule, Paterno said the NCAA should install a rule to make it more difficult for the place kicker to boot the ball out of the endzone. "I think the pros have a better idea. I think I'd move it back, take it off the tee, something like that. And make it tougher for them to kick it in the end zone, make it 65 yards to cover instead of 60.". play, sending the New York Mets to a 4-2 victory over the Pirates. Pittsburgh, the first team in the National League East to be math ematically eliminated from pen nant contention, led 2-1 when starter John Candelaria left the game with tightness in his left elbow after scattering five hits over five innings. Lee Tunnell, 1-4, took over and gave up a leadoff single in the sixth to Keith Hernandez before walking Hubie Brooks with one out.

"I coached the (U.S. Canada Cup) team in 1981 and we had a very good team, a very compet itive team," he said. "We had Neal Broten, Dave Christian and Mark Johnson and they were ques tion marks in the National Hockey League and last year they all scored over 80 points. "Those players have developed into established National Hockey League players," he continued. "Now we've got (Ed) Olczyk, (Brian) Lawton, (David A.) Jen sen and (Chris) Chelios and three years from now, they're going to be established. "We have more world-class players than we did in 1981." added Johnson. "Still we don't have enough, but they're coming." The team is filled with young players under age 20, including NHL first-round draft choices like Olczyk (18), Lawton (19), Jensen (19) and Barrasso (19). There also are first-round choic es who aren't much older Bob Carpenter (21), Phil Housley (20) and Mike Ramsey (23) and established veterans like Rod Lan gway, the NHL's best defenseman last season, and the New York Islanders' Bryan Trottier "So the next Canada Cup, the United States should be oustand ing," said Johnson. "And this year, we're surprising every body." Johnson knows that, along with Canada and the Soviets, the Czechs will give Team USA its toughest game. The Czechs held the Soviets to one goal in the first two periods of their game, before losing 3-0. "They're very competitive, well-conditioned and well drilled," said Johnson. Darryl Strawberry moved up the runners with a groundout, Knight singled into the hole at short to score Hernandez and Brooks came home when Wotus threw the ball into the Mets' dugout for an error.
