That dispenser is man ufactured by ISC for the U.S. and foreign air forces, the article said. Betty Chobanoff, an ISC supervi sor, last night referred all questions about Penn State's ties with ISC to Adams. "We deal in a lot of top secret research so I'd prefer for him to tell you," she said. McLaughlin said he does not view project Rockeye in long-range terms. Rather, he said, he sees it as taking measurements on the drag and stabil ity of the model when it is placed in the University's wind tunnel, located in the Applied Research Laboratory. "I'm not interested in any applica tions, whether it's a bomb or an anti personnel bomb," he said. "I don't want to know that. Give me a model and I'll treat it like a model. - ISC did sketch out what the model would be used for in rough terms, McLaughlin said, but he would not comment on what that entailed. McLaughlin said the use of the material data can be a moral ques tion to those involved in the research. That, he said, is the "unfortunate reality" of the world. "It's very good material for thought and to study under sociologi cal examination," he said. "But in terms of going in and (questioning) the application, well, that's not all that newsworthy to the informed per son. To a layperson it might be."

"It is unlikely that they would take it upon themselves to change the sanctions but that's really up to the board," Eakin said.

Sources familiar with the struggle said that the chances for Kennedy's nomination collapsed when Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C., threatened to filibuster a Kennedy nomination on the grounds he was not conservative enough.

"What if we did not have any de fense (then)," he asked. "Our coun try would have been wiped out." McLaughlin stressed that project Rockeye has had a positive effect on the aerospace engineering depart ment, including providing money for fellowships, expansions and up graded equipment. McLaughlin said the project serves a two-fold purpose. It satisfies the U.S. Department of Defense, which he said funds about one-half of the University's research, and it educates students. "It will get a few people hyped," he said. "Of 30,000, about 1,000 will get hyped up. That is a possible scenario. but what's the motive? A thousand people who are well organized would be a problem to Penn State Universi ty." If that happened, he said, the re search would diminish and the amount of students the school would be able to accommodate would de crease. "It depends on how people think," McLaughlin said. Seliga said: feel that if you talk about the University engaged in re search specifically designed for de stroying human life, that can be of concern." He stressed that last night was the first time he was informed of the details of the project. "On the other hand, this nation is cooperate with Eakin and the Student Organizations Appeal Board. "It's something ( IFC advisor) Rick Funk and myself would have to look into. As it stands now, the case is out of our hands," Repman said. "But if they choose (to send the case back to IFC for re-review) we will act accordingly, - he said. Eakin said the fraternity may ap- objected vigorously to Kennedy. "I called the president around 9:30 this morning and said I have strong objections to one of the other poten tial nominees . . and that if he were nominated . . . that I would openly oppose him," the senator told report ers. "I said, 'No way, Jose could I support him'." Ginsburg and Kennedy, along with federal appeals court judge William W.

"I've seen things like this get out of hand and be misrepresented in the press," he said. "I don't think 'bomb' is a wise word. "Is it acceptable or not acceptable research at the University? I'm not sure I want to comment on that; I'm not going to comment under pres sure," he said. Charles Hosier, vice president for research, said last week he was un aware of the project. He said not knowing about the research is not unusual because the University is involved in thousands of projects. University President Bryce Jordan said last night he too was not aware of the research. Jordan said Penn State has been involved in defensive re search since the end of World War H. "To serve the well-being of the American people is what the Univer sity and all universities are about," Jordan said.
