6 —The Daily Collegian Friday, Sept. 13, 1985 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. "The GSA academic division is TAILGATING THIS WEEKEND?

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.

If you are TURNED OFF by the church right now, or if you are looking for a CHURCH HOME, and if you think you'might be small enough to know everyone, but large enough to serve members and community: informal enough to be warm and relevant, but structured enough to be effective - then you want to try the DIAKONIA PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

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.” business 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 D.

Ralph Bloch, vice president of Mo seley, Hallgarten, Estabrook & Wee den Inc. in Chicago, also stressed that the programs are reacting to estab lished market sentiment. “They tend to occur in the direction that the market is already moving,” Bloch said. “The indicators these firms use are predicated on market strengths or weaknesses.” The market’s underlying weakness reflects stepped-up selling by money managers and individual investors who are concerned about the outlook for the economy and corporate earn ings, traders said.

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.

(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. 340 320 310 300 290 280 270 The commission said Fisher and Trujillo knew or should have known of Matl’s questionable ac tivity. .USS FREDERICK • RUSS FREDERICK * RUSS FREDERICK • RUSS FREDERICK | Penn State Fans I Surround yourself | in the Penn State g tradition and save | 10% on Penn State 1 wallcovering. ? . i THE DEe©RATORLS WORKSHOP \ „ 200 West College Ave., (corner of College & Fraser) O eg State College 237-8900 g P Open 8:00am-5:30pm Monday thru Saturday; 8:00am-9pm Thursday D K\ RUSS FREDERICK « RUSS FREDERICK » RUSS FREDERICK* RUSS FREDERICK £ x The Daily Collegian Friday, Sept. 13, 1983—7 Penn State’s only Professional Business Sorority RUSH Meeting Mon., Sept. 16 62 Willard 7 pm
