4—The Daily Collegian Thursday, Nov. 7, 1985 Reporter tells of Cyprus' invasion By VICTORIA PETTIES Collegian Staff Writer The U.S. government alleges the 1974 Turkish invasion of north Cyprus was a result of internal problems between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, a British journalist said during a lecture on American rela tions with Cyprus last night. Christopher Hitchens said the U.S. government finalized a step in a misinformation process by stating the problems in Cyprus resulted from conflicts between the Greek Cypriots and the Turkish Cypriots. This gov ernment viewed the separation of the northern region, which is occupied by Turkish Cypriots, and southern re gion of Greek Cypriots, as the result of a dispute within the island. The United States supplies the Turkish government with military supplies because the country borders the Soviet Union. The e U.S. govern ment gives money to the Turkish New cable channel discussed By SONYA BAUM Collegian Staff Writer A developing public-access television channel might provide an outlet for the energies of young filmmakers and video enthusiasts in Centre County. The Government/Educational Cable Television Access Task Force, which includes representatives of area government agencies, discussed the possibility that State College area and university students could create short feature films for use on the station. Marlowe Froke, task force member, said last night that film and video capture the imaginations of many young people. "I think we should challenge youngsters to work in the medium," he said. The task force plans to broadcast on Channel 19 with a format similar to WRSC's Channel 4, Bill Rigby, task force chairman, said.

Yett the Turkish government is using the mili tary supplies in Cyprus, Hitchens said. There are 40,000 troops sta tioned in the southern region of the country. Forty percent of Cyprus is now occupied by Turkish Cypriots in the northern half of the country. Greek Cypriots make up 82 percent of the total 840,000 population, and Turkish Cypriots account for 18 percent of the population. After the Turkish gover ment invaded 11 years ago, Greek Cypriots were forced to move to the southern half of the island. There is a expensive, sophiscated military base in the northern region of Cyprus to be used by the U.S. rapid deployment forces, Hitchens said. Turkey is building military supplies which will eventually be used to take over the entire island of Cyprus.

At this time, task force members are uncertain about an exact program schedule and funding for the station. To garner funds, task force member Leslie Montz suggested offering a membership which could be bought by area organizations who would then have a say in programming. Froke also suggested the possibilities of an arts-related grant. Channel 19 will be broadcast through Centre Video, which serves approximately 90 percent of Centre County, said Jeff Fisher, Centre Video's systems manager. Although a broadcast location has not been determined several possibilities that include Schlow Memorial Li brary, 100 E. Beaver Ave., and State College Area High School, 653 Westerly Parkway, are being discussed, Fisher said. Rigby said the task force hopes to begin broadcasting sometime next year.

Christianity was erased completely when the Turkish government in vaded Cyprus, Hitchens said. The highly evolved Christianity culture represents the core of existence in Cyprus. "Cyprus is an important piece of the Middle East jigsaw," Hitchens said, because it is a neutral meeting place for countries. Greece cannot survive without the United States, Hitchens said. The only method by which Greece will achieve enough military power to contend with Turkey is to make the U.S. government believe Greece is a better ally than Turkey. Hitchens described the United States as a paymaster to Turkey, explaining that as long as Turkey defends the North Atlantic Treaty Alliance, this government will give that country military supplies. 265 Willard 234-4 SUB , I§ Thornburgh surveys flood damage By EDWARD FROST Associated Press Writer PITTSBURGH Gov. Dick Thornburgh completed a three-hour tour of the Monongahela Valley yesterday as slowly receding waters kept about 1,500 people from their homes after record-breaking floods . hit five southwestern Pennsylvania counties. "Most of the homes are going to have a lot of heavy, heavy damage," West Elizabeth Police Officer George Payne said of 100 houses in his Allegheny County commu nity. "Most of the people down there are going to lose everything." Some residents of. Washington and Fayette counties were asked to ration drinking water after flooding forced nine water plants along the Monongahela to shut down. The utilities were providing drinking water from reserves but asked customers to conserve supplies, the state Department of Environmental Resources said. The Washington Township Municipal Authority de clared a water emergency and a spokesman said treat ment facilities may not begin operations until the weekend. The authority serves 4,000 residents in Fayette and Washington counties. In Washington County, the towns of Roscoe, Stockdale, Elco and Allenport were being supplied by state National Guard tankers, said Earl Bugaile, a county spokesman.. "We are in serious jeopardy of losing water for the boroughs of Donora and Charleroi," he said. Homeowners with wells may are being asked to boil their drinking water first and may have to have wells cleaned and disinfected before they can be used safely, Bugaile said. • Four . communities in Fayette County Fairhope, Laßelle, Point Marion and Masontown also were having water trucked in, the county emergency manage ment agency, said. . Thornburgh and Lt. Gov. William W. Scranton HI flew over the flooded , areas by helicopter and later toured Brownsville in Fayette County and West Brownsville and California in Washington County by car, said gubernatori al spokesman Dave Runkel. "The governor wanted an eyeball inspection," Runkel said. The state is considering asking for a federal disaster declaration, he said. John Comey, spokesman for the Pennsylvania Emer gency Management Agency, said 1,500 people remained out of their flooded homes yesterday, some staying at 18 emergency shelters established by the Red Cross. Local officials said as many as 5,000 residents were evacuated at the height of the flooding. Drivers Needed Immediately Drivers Needed Immediately Drivers Needed Immediatel 0 a) > ...

Flooding in southwestern Pennsylvania, aggravated by runoff from a 7-inch downpour in the West Virginia headwaters of the Monongahela, broke records set in 1936 but brought no loss of life. State and federal officials planned to tour flooded communities yesterday to compile a damage estimate expected to be in the millions. "Until the water goes down it's really hard to guess about damage," Morgan said. Authorities credited the National Weather Service's river forecasters for helping prevent any serious injuries in Pennsylvania, although rescuers were still searching Walnut Creek in Erie County for salmon fisherman Lawrence Kalisewski, 28, of Edinboro, who was swept away early Tuesday. "River flooding is predictable. It's something that normally you can get sufficient warning out to the communities," Comey said. "We had the early predic tions of crest and flooding Monday night." Thornburgh ordered 600 Pennsylvania National Guardsman to help with relief efforts. Thornburgh made $1 million in emergency funds avail able in Allegheny, Fayette, Greene, Washington and Somerset counties after the Monongahela reached flood depths not seen for 50 years. U.S. Rep. Joseph Gaydos, a McKeesport Democrat, asked Thornburgh to include Westmoreland County so that the flood-damaged community of Webster in Ros traver Township would also be eligible for government assistance. State transportation officials said portions of at least 20 roads were under water, and pavement had disappeared in three places along one Fayette County road. A bridge at Brownsville was permanently closed due to damage from one of scores of runaway barges. Floodwaters crested in Pittsburgh, where the Mononga hela and Allegheny rivers meet to form the Ohio, at 5 a.m. yesterday, at 26.2 feet, 1.2 feet overflood stage. The swirling water poured over a retaining wall and forced the downtown portion of the eastbound Penn Lincoln Parkway to close through the morning. Aldo Angelo, National Weather Service hydrologist, said the Ohio River continued to rise downstream and was expected to crest at 36.8 feet, a little above flood stage, in Wheeling, W.Va. at 7 p.m. yesterday. Neither the Allegheny nor Youghiogheny rivers exceed ed flood levels, the National Weather Service said.
