Five to face trial on drug charges
By TERRY MUTCHLER
Collegian Staff Writer
Five of nine men, including three
University students, charged last
week for drug-related offenses are
scheduled to stand trial in the
Centre County Court of Common
Pleas sometime next year.
The nine arrests made by the
State College Bureau of Police
Services and University Police
Services stemmed from a 10-month
investigation which netted about
$lO,OOO in the drug bust.
At preliminary hearings held
Wednesday, District Justice Robert
Shoff decided that the Common
wealth had sufficient evidence to
merit a trial next February or
March against Douglas Dockray,
22, 725 Briarwood; Curtis Mitchell,

Candidate cites need for jobs in Pa.
By ALEXANDRA S. PURNELL
Collegian Staff Writer
A 1 Brelo describes himself as a popular man in
Centre County as he challenges Republican incum
bent J. Doyle Corman in the race for state Senate
in the 34th District.
Brelo, a Phillipsburg native, said he is refusing
to take any campaign contributions from anyone,
including his own Democratic Party.
He said the party never offered him any money
but said, “if they did have any money to spare, I
wouldn’t have wanted it anyway. I’m not too close
with the party,” Brelo said.
The Democratic nominee is a former construc
tion worker in central Pennsylvania and he does
not want to be affiliated with any political organi
zation, he said. f
Brelo admits that he is not a typical politician.
Currently unemployed, Brelo applied for the
office of District Magistrate in 1981 and briefly
pursued the 23rd Congressional District seat in
1982. He failed in both attempts for political office.
He only campaigns on a door-to-door basis,
saying that he has done a lot of campaigning in
Centre, Clearfield, and Clinton counties.
“I’m certain I’ll beat (Corman) in Clearfield
County and part of Clinton County,” Brelo said.
Brelo emphasized the need to bring jobs back
into Pennsylvania, something he does not think his
opponent has been doing. The Democratic chal
lenger cites dissatisfaction with Corman’s perfor
mance as senator as motivation for his own
candidacy.
“He’s certainly not a full-time senator,” said
Brelo, claiming that Corman’s business interests
interfered with his work in office.
Corman said that his insurance and real estate
business, Corman Associates Inc., consumes sev
en or eight hours a week of his time.
“I think he ought to be trying to bring work' in (to
Pennsylvania),” Brelo said.

“I’d like to see Interstate 80 made a toll road,”
he proposed, saying that it would create jobs and
raise revenue for the state at the same time. He
added that if he were elected his campaign would
focus on drawing outside businesses into Pennsyl
vania.
Corman, who said his opponent “seems to be a
fine individual,” has served in the state Senate
since 1977.
Corman has taken action to help alleviate the
unemployment problem in the state. He has
served on the Ben Franklin Partnership Board for
four years, a committee made up of elected
officials, university staff members and private
citizens who develop programs for creating new
jobs in the state.
Corman, 54, said he works with the local Indus
trial Development Corporation and was instru
mental,in saving the Central Pennsylvania School
of Nursing in Philipsburg. He has received en
dorsements from The Pennsylvanians for Effec
tive Government, The Pennsylvania Sportsmen
Coalition and The Association of College and
University Professors.
Brelo’s incumbent opponent is the chairman of
the Senate Transportation Committee and vice
chairman of the Local Government Committee.
He also sits on the Appropriations, Labor and
Industry, and Public Health and Welfare Commit
tees. Education and hazardous waste disposal are
his top priorities.
“I’d like to see better funding for Penn State,”
Brelo said, adding that he would “like to see us do
a better job in funding basic education.”
Brelo is also concerned about hazardous waste
dumps in Pennsylvania.
“It was the main thing that got me into this to
start with,” he said. Brelo said he disagrees with
the.way Corman has dealt with this issue.
“(Corman) said he won’t oppose putting nuclear
waste in this district,” said Brelo.
Corman denied the charge, saying that the only
t; r .

states being considered for nuclear waste disposal
are Nevada, Louisiana and Washington. He said
only low-level radioactive waste would be stored in
Pennsylvania. Favoring state control of hazardous
waste sites, he said, “we can provide security if we
know there are only a few waste sites in the state.”
Brelo said “I don’t think (nuclear waste) should
be brought here,” and later said “There has to be a
nuclear waste dump site somewhere in Pennsylva
nia.”
However he added that the state produces more
nuclear waste than any other state in the country.
He said a nuclear waste dump site should be put
“in one of the northern counties that doesn’t have
much of a population.”
Brelo said he would never raise taxes. He would
like to see more social security benefits and more
financial aid for Penn State students, but only if it
could be done without raising taxes.
