USG letter
on murder
case delayed
Delivery of an Undergraduate Stu
dent Government letter criticizing
the State College Borough of Police
Services and Centre County District
Attorney Ray Gricar for their hand
ling of the Dana Bailey murder inves
tigation has been delayed until after
the Thanksgiving break, Senate Vice
President Mark Bond said.
Bailey, a 21-year-old University
student, was found stabbed to death
in her apartment at 132'* S. Allen St.
on March 5. Since then police have
released little information concern
ing the Bailey murder, saying only
that Bailey died of stab wounds to the
heart and lungs and her apartment
was forcibly entered.
Bond, who is composing the letter
on behalf of USG, said although he
had originally planned to mail the
letter early this week, he wanted to
take some extra time composing the
letter to allow for every senator's
input.
Bond said senators are concerned
about the lack of information re
vealed by police.
Gricar said he would not comment
on the senators’ concerns until he
received the letter.

FEMALE ROOMATE NEEDED to
87,000 treated yearly at Ritenour
By RICHARD PENUUAR
Collegian Science Writer
For everything from. Spring Break viruses to sports
injuries, students seek sanctuary in the sleek vinyl
interior of Ritenour Health Center’s waiting room.
Ritenour makes 87,000 student contacts per year, said
Dr. Harry McDermott, director of University Health
Services. This has been the average for the past three
years, he said.
Of these, 50,000 are seen by physicians. The physician
assistant, nurses and nurse practitioners care for the
rest. For example, nurse practitioners in the center’s
injection room handle 50 visits per day by students who
need immunizations or allergy shots.
The most common problems handled by the staff at
Ritenour are those relative to the 17-25 age group. The
five most common problems treated are respiratory
infections, gastrointestinal complaints, urinary tract
infections, trauma and dermatological problems,
McDermott said.
Respiratory infections such as colds, throat pains and
bronchitis total one- third of the overall visits to Ritenour
and have their peak incidence during the winter.
“We won’t know until January or February whether
we re going to have a flu epidemic,” McDermott said.
With the larger geographic distribution of students and
several students travelling the country and the world, the
potential of bringing back new germs increases,
Dr. Floyd Naugle, associate director of Ritenour, said.
“The University community is a constant boiling pot of
someone bringing back something that someone else has
no immunity against,” he said.
The majority of gastrointestinal problems, such as
heartburn and indigestion, are caused by the nervous
system’s effect on the body, McDermott said. Their peak
incidence is during mid-term and finals periods with the
influx of “stress and anxiety in the student population,”
he said.
Gastroenteritis inflammation of the lining
membrane of the stomach and intestines leads to
vomiting and diarrhea. The University suffered a minor
epidemic of this a few years ago after students returned
from Spring Break, McDermott said.
Indecent programs

Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON, D C. - The Feder
al Communications Commission yes
terday told radio and television
broadcasters that they may air inde
cent programming between midnight
and 6 a.m. without fear of FCC action.
The FCC established the time peri
od in response to petitions seeking
clarification of the agency’s new
standards for indecent program
ming. But the commission did little
else to change its April ruling.
The FCC’s four sitting commission
ers voted unanimously to reaffirm
the agency’s findings of indecency
against three radio stations and indi
cated that midnight to 6 a.m. was a

“All the commission said is that we
would expect after midnight that we
could rely on parents to supervise any
children in the audience,” said Diane
Killory, FCC general counsel.
Commissioners, however, differed
on an appropriate hour.
“Although I welcome the fact that
we have selected a time certain, what
is the best time is a judgment call,”
said Commissioner Patricia D. Den
nis.
Although she voted with the other
commissioners, she said she pre

In addition students seek care for lacerations or cuts
abrasions, and contusions - bruises that are not cuts
Naugle said he suspects students are more physically’
active here than at home, since many complaints in
sports medicine are due to overuse, such as in jogging
Dermatological problems such as skin diseases or
rashes complete the “big five," McDermott said.
' . W ® ™ ust not be lulled into a sense of complacency in

something serious is seen," McDermott said He said
three to five cases of cancer are diagnosed each year.

McDermott said. The approach to handling these is group

counseling staffs collaborating on the cases
During the first several weeks of each semester the
health center sees an influx of visits by freshman and new
students, McDermott said.

Psychological Services, said students starting fresh in a

the NAB had “some grave concerns
