Paterno said Wallace would play, but his role was significantly reduced. He was replaced by redshirt freshman Drew Astorino in the nickel defense until the fourth quarter, and his only action to that point came on special teams. "I think there has to be a consistency there that this is all about the team, and if you're gonna go outside the team and embarrass the team and yourself and your family and your university, there's a consequence," Cappelletti said. Café From Page 1 said Anderson is excited about the reopening. "He is very pleased to be able to serve State College once again," Price said, adding she could not comment on nego tiations with Arrington. Anderson has not responded to multi ple requests for comment.

Sims attended a UPUA meeting two weeks ago with Penn State President Graham Spanier and met with USAS and SLAP members last week. "He's been really open; I'm really impressed so far," UPUA President Gavin Keirans said after Sims addressed students at the President's New Student Convocation on Aug. 23. In his first position as head of an administrative department; Sims has spent the past month learning his way around campus and meeting his new staff and students.

"They got us in situations where we had to convert and we didn't convert," Oregon State coach Mike Riley said after the game. "We missed some opportuni ties. They mixed up the coverage. They have a good rush. The pressure is always applied with Penn State. That's just their M. 0." Oregon *State quarterback Lyle Moe vao couldn't move his offense down the field. The junior was sacked twice and threw two late interceptions. Penn State linebacker Josh Hull picked off a Moevao pass in the third quarter, and safety Mark Rubin made a diving interception in the fourth.

Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) on Thursday, the day it reopened, Francesca Chapman, deputy press secretary for the PLCB, said. On May 28, the PLCB received the application for transfer of the license to Arrington's group, FA.M.M. LLC. Since then, Anderson stopped the transfer of the liquor license and reacti vated it by showing the PLCB evidence he had tax clearance from the state department of revenue; he also cleared up an outstanding citation with the Pennsylvania Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement, Chapman said. After the opening, Brian Schmitt (sen ior-astronomy and astrophysics) began a Facebook group called "Boycott the Sports Café and Grille." The group cur rently has 183 members. "I think, en masse, students could really make a change," Schmitt said. Schmitt said he is supportive of Arrington and said Anderson is being underhanded by reopening the bar. attention to the importance of a "stu dent-centered" university Sims said he left Indiana where he also earned his undergraduate and law degrees because he felt the university was mov ing away from that goal. "Indiana University was beginning to focus more on its research role ... [and] less on commitment to students," he said of his former school, which spent more than $l.B billion on research an average of $3OO million per year between 2000 and 2006, according to data from the Indiana University Life Sci ences Initiative. "Penn State seemed strongly commit ted [to a student-centered university], at least in principle. It's an attitude that needs to be pursued throughout the institution," he said. Penn State spent $665 million on research in 2007, according to the Annu al Report of Research Activity for the 2007 fiscal year. Dick McKaig, the dean of students and vice provost for student affairs at Indi ana, said Sims was a skilled administra tor during his time at Indiana. "He was well respected by faculty and well respected by students," McKaig said last week. "Many students consid ered him their mentor."

"More people seem interested to see what it looks like now," Fishwick said Thursday as she walked along College Avenue and passed out gold-colored fliers advertising the reopening. Several people walking by the bar could be heard yelling "Where is LaVar?" Kyle Mac Wade (senior-mathematics), who asked bouncers about Arrington, visited the bar for its reopening. "It seems like a good place to have a beer or two," Mac Wade said. • Jess DeGore (senior-nutrition) and Dave Schmatz (senior-finance) said they were the first people to sit on the outside patio and would return to the bar again. Madden, a bar manager, said the bar is going to have 28 beers on tap soon. He also said the bar is serving food from 11 to 2 a.m. every day border from Louisville, Ky., Sims said he's excited to experience Penn State's "East Coast flavor." "I want to know the history here," he said. He spent time this semester walking through State College, sampling book stores and coffee shops such as Web ster's Bookstore Café, 128 S. Allen St. "I'm always reading something = a little bit of everything," he said. In his spare time, he enjoys cooking, listening to jazz music and being outdoors. "I love escaping my ties," he said. "I prefer shorts and sandals and T-shirts." Penn State administrators have praised Sims for his accessibility and student advocacy "I think he's going to be a tremendous addition to Penn State staff," said Gail Hurley, who served as the interim vice president for student affairs last year after former Vice President for Student Affairs Vicky Triponey resigned unex pectedly in September 2007. Hurley said leaving her student affairs position for one in auxiliary and business services is "bittersweet in a way," but she spent last year laying a foundation for her successor.

But after the game, much of the focus was on Royster, who became the first in the Joe Paterno era to score six rushing touchdowns in the first two games. Cappelletti said Royster reminds him of himself when he played, not just because of the number or the position either. Cappelletti said Royster reads plays well, reacts quickly and has good size. There is one difference between the two, though. "He probably has more speed than I ever had, but that's the nature of the game today," Cappelletti said. In the media room after the game, a freshly showered Royster wouldn't talk about the Heisman Trophy long. "Yeah, it's definitely a little early for that," Royster said. "It's definitely some thing that you hope for. You grow up see ing people win the Heisman from year to year. It's just a dream that everybody has as a kid." Upper • '"1 Allentown
