GSA to focus on grads
By CELESTE McCAULEY
Collegian Staff Writer
The Graduate Student Association
should concentrate this year more on
issues that affect graduate students
and less on other University-wide
issues, GSA President Brian Del Buo
no said.
“This year we can voice our opin
ions through graduate delegates in
the University Student Executive
Council, Undergraduate Student Gov
ernment and other student organiza
tions and place more of our emphasis
on graduate concerns,” he said.
GSA lost its focus at times in the
past because it was involved in many
campus issues, Del Buono said at the
organization’s first monthly assem
bly meeting Tuesday.
“There is nothing more important
for GSA than focusing on academic
issue projects this year,” he said.
GSA will address concerns about
the quality of graduate student teach
ing assistant training, he said.

currently working,with at least one

sembly regarding teaching assistant
training,” he said.
Del Buono asked the delegates to
cooperate with the USG-sponsored
phone survey, which will randomly
poll University students for their
opinions on apartheid and divest
ment. The poll is tentatively set for
Sept. 18 and 19.
“The is just as important an issue
to grads as it is to undergraduates,”
he said.
In an earlier interview, Luke Tai
clet, Graduate Council member and
coordinator of the Graduate Fair,
said the fair will be held Oct. 21 in the
HUB.
"The Grad Fair is where under
graduates contemplating grad school
and graduate students planning on
continuing their studies have the op
portunity to meet with representa
tives of various grad schools,” he
said.
Taiclet said he expects about 1,500
students to participate in the conven
tion.

Mike Pavlovic (iunior-hotel. restaurant and
institutional management) said although living in
Tener with women on alternate floors is no prob
lem, living in an all-male dorm is different.
“The guys still brought girls on the floor,”
Pavlovic added, “but now girls can walk unes
corted through the halls, which can be a problem
sometimes, especially on Friday and Saturday
nights.”
Schafer said while the escort policy in all-male
and all-female residence halls exists, it is not
strongly enforced in men’s buildings as it is in
women’s.
Kim Volb (sophomore-Spanish), a Beaver Hall
resident, said she enjoys living in a coed residence
hall.
“I really like it,” Volb said. “It makes it easier
without the escort policy.”
Cronauer said CLOC plans to study the results of
alternate wing/floor housing in more detail in
future committee meetings.
“So far, we are very pleased. If the demand is
there, we intend on expanding it,” Cronauer said:
“Next year, we hope to include freshmen, which
would expand the demand for alternate wing/floor
housing.”

Stocks falter third day in a row
By JAMES F. PELTZ
AP Business Writer
NEW YORK - Stocks skidded to a
broad loss for the third consecutive
session yesterday, pushing the Dow
Jones industrial average to a 2'A
month low.
Interest rate-sensitive financial is
sues came under notable pressure.
Airline, retail, auto and telephone
stocks also retreated.
The Dow Jones average of 30 indus
trials fell 7.05 to 1,312.39, its lowest
level since June 20, when it stood at
1,299.73. The average is off 23.30
points so far this week.
Losers overall led gainers by near
ly 3-to-l on the New York Stock Ex
change, whose composite index lost
0.86 to 106.36. NYSE-listed issues hit
ting new 52-week lows outpaced those
reaching new hjghs by 40-to-19.
Big Board volume totaled 107.07
million shares, against 100.38 million
in the previous session.
At the American Stock Exchange,
the market value index fell 1.62 to
226.72. The measure is down 5.72
points, or 2.5 percent, this week
alone.
Futures related “sell programs”
by brokerage firms, a key contributor
to Wednesday’s steep loss, initially
, abated yesterday but reappeared in
late dealings, traders said.
Recently the prices of certain
stock-index futures contracts have
been selling at a discount to the
indexes themselves. So the firms
have been buying the futures and
selling the indexes’ underlying stocks
to take advantage of the price spread.
Regardless, “the market’s inability
to rally when there are no programs
is just as revealing as the selling
generated by the programs,” Newton

Bloch said. “The indicators these

reflects stepped-up selling by money

Wall Street is hoping to get a clear
er picture of the economy today,
when the government issues August
data on retail sales, industrial pro
duction and wholesale prices.
But even if the reports are relative
ly positive, there is uncertainty as to
whether they can ignite a rebound in
stocks or merely provide a brief
respite from the market’s downward
trend, mainly because of fears that a
stronger economy might send inter
est rates higher, analysts said.
In the rate-sensitive financial sec
tor, Chase Manhattan fell 1% to 52V 8 ,
Household International dropped IVs
to 33% and Manufacturers Hanover
was off l'/ 8 at 35'/s.

SEC censures
Merrill Lynch
WASHINGTON, D.C. (AP) -
The Securities and Exchange
Commission has censured Mer
rill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner &
Smith Inc. in connection with the
activities of a former salesman in
the firm’s San Francisco office.
Without admitting or denying
any of the federal agency’s alle
gations, the New York-based bro
kerage firm biggest in the
business accepted the censure.
The commission on Wednesday
ordered that Victor G. Matl, the
former account executive, be
barred from any future associa
tion with any broker, investment
adviser or municipal securities
dealer.
The SEC said Matl worked for
Merrill Lynch from April 1977 to
March 1983.
It also ordered that Robert M.
Fisher, office manager of the
branch that Matl worked out of,
be suspended for 30 days and
ordered a hearing into the con
duct of Louis R. Trujillo, for
merly administrative manager of
the branch.
The SEC said Matl made mis
representations to customers
about the risks of options trading
and trading on margin, recom
mended to customers certain
transactions that were unsuitable
for them given their financial
resources, made transactions be
yond the scope of authority grant
ed by some of his clients and
failed to sell some of his custom
er's holdings as requested.
