said.
Regan said a dramatic increase
in charitable giving coupled with
corporations donating more to
public institutions gives, "every
reason to expect the Campaign for
Penn State to succeed dramati
cally."
Regan was the keynote speaker
at the dinner, which offically
launched the campaign.
Appreciates protest
Regan said he did not object to
the protesters outside who were
demonstrating against his visit
because of his previous remarks
about women.
"Come to think of it, even those
protesters. make me feel right at
home," he said.
President Reagan has helped to
bring back a sense of pride in
America, he said.
For example, he said, countries
are beginning to support the idea
of a free market economy.
Only with the help of universi
ties like Penn State can the coun-
—Donald Regan
chief of staff
try develop the skills needed to
maintain its liberty and strength,
he added.
In honoring the University, Re
gan said he "honors all that young
minds can achieve."
President Reagari addressed the
crowd in a videotaped message.
He praised Penn State's re
search efforts as shown by the
"Penn State Heart."
The University is "among the
finest in the country, and indeed,
the worldrßeagan said.
He added that since the econ
omy is going well, this is a good
time to start a campaign.
Penn State's future
University President Bryce Jor
dan greeted the guests and said,
"When we speak of Penn State's
future, I want to point out that the
future is here tonight. Penn State's
future is you. It rides on your
support."
Regan was the chairman of the
fund raising campaign for the
University of Pennsylvarja, which
raised over .$250 million.
Regan challenged Campaign
Chairman William Schreyer to go
beyond the $2OO million goal and
strive to collect $250 million.
"$2OO million right now for this
distinguished university is not
enough if you are going to compete
with your sister institution," he
said.
So far, the campaign has col
lected $B5 million in support for
the University, Jordan said.
Shields was convicted of aggravated
assault and robbery in January 1969, and
was attending Penn State while on
parole from the State Correctional In
stitution at Rockview.
An informed source said last night,
there is a possibility Shields may be
released by tomorrow. A hearing before
the parole board will determine if
Shields will have to serve his full sen
tence, confining him until 1975.
The date of the hearing has not yet
been set.
A Pehnsylvania parole agent said that
whatever happens to Shields now, is up
to the parole board.
"A great deal depends on the
seriousness on the charges; how he's
adjusted to his parole, and what he's
been doing," he said. He added that
Shields would probably be eligible for
reparole.

McLanahan's filed a complaint
against Shields in early May charging
him with intentionally passing a bad
check in the amount of $lO.
Other sources said they know of
several cases of students owing $2O to $3O
worth of invalid checks at the establish
ment, who had not received a notice of
impending court action.
According to Shields, he has receipts
proving that he made a deposit the same
day the check was drawn. He claims the
bank will concede to having made a
bookkeeping error.
