Reagans
await
results
By MICHAEL PUTZEL
AP White House Correspondent
WASHINGTON, D.C. President
Reagan, offering no predictions on
the outcome of yesterday's elections,
returned to Washington to await the
voting results with his wife, Nancy, in
the privacy of their White House
quarters.
The Reagans, who had voted by
absentee ballot in Califdrnia, left Los
Angeles yesterday morning for the
homeward leg of the president's
24,839-mile campaign trek trying to
save the Senate for his Republican
Party.
Reagan crisscrossed the South and
West in the last week of the cam
paign, trying to drum up support for
nine Senate candidates whose races
were still' deemed too close to call
when the polls opened yesterday.
Moments after the presidential
plane, Air Force One, lifted off from
Los Angeles International Airport, a
warning light in the cockpit indicated
one of the landing gear brakes was
hot, a White House spokesman said.
Mark Weinberg, an assistant press
secretary, said the pilot coped with
the problem by leaving the nosegear
down in flight briefly to cool it off. It
was retracted after a few minutes,
Weinberg said, and the trip continued
uninterrupted.
Chi:l White House spokesman Lar
ry Speakes'told reporters aboard the
plane that the captain, Col.• Robert
Ruddick, "says there is nothing
wrong with the aircraft."
The presidential jet landed without
incident at Andrews Air Force Base
in suburban Maryland in late af
ternoon.

Chavez calling Mikulski "anti-male"
and a "San Francisco-style Demo

Mikulski, claiming victory and
thanking her family, said her father
was too ill to attend the celebration.
."But Dad, I know you're watching,
and your daughter is now a United
States senator," she said, beaming.
In another high-profile race involv

Senate
supports
fast
By SUSAN KEARNEY
Collegian Staff Writer
The Undergraduate Student
Government Senate voted last
night to support students current
ly participating in a weeklong
fast for the starving victims of
apartheid in South Africa.
Kimm Tynan, vice president of
the Committee for Justice in
South Africa, said five people
began fasting Sunday. She said
she hoped the fast would give
attention to the apartheid issue at
the Board of Trustees' meeting
tomorrow and Friday., The fast
ends this Sunday, she said.
"I'm asking USG to support the
fast," she said.
Tynan said other students have
volunteered to fast for one or two
days.
Todd May, a member of the
committee and one of the five
who began the fast, said, "We're
not trying to punish anybody by
inflicting hunger on ourselves.
"We thought by the fast we
would bring home a sense of
urgency to Penn State regarding
the hunger that exists in South
Africa," May said.
Pat Devlin, a West Halls sen
ator, said because USG supports
the fast students should not think
that the senate is in full suport of
divestment.
East Halls Senator Kelly Malo
ney said that last year the Senate
supported legislation recom
mending a divestment policy for
the University.
A vote in support of the fast
means USG "believes that Amer
ican corporate policy has failed,"
May said. '
"Discussion has died down this
semester. This (resolution) is
saying we support keeping dis
cussion on the issue of divest
ment," said Susan Weinstein, a
town senator.
Senate President Joe Scoboria
said whether one is pro-divest
ment or not, everyone has to
agree that apartheid is morally
wrong.
