Matt McGloin played backup
quarterback to Rob Bolden all sea

But a day after the redshirt
sophomore jumped Bolden on the
depth chart, Joe Paterno
announced McGloin will make his
second start this Saturday at Ohio
State.
“We're going to go with him,
Paterno said.
"But I hope that (Bolden] will be
able to play."

When legendary folk singer
Bob Dylan appeared on the
Bryce Jordan Center stage
Tuesday night, he had no open
ing band or opening remarks.
He just did what he's been
doing for over 60 years: created
music.
“People complain that his
music doesn't sound like it used
to, but what do they expect? He’s
still doing it," said Jon May (jun
ior-biological engineering)
before the concert. “He’s easily
the most righteous individual of
any time."
The man. the myth, the legend
as he's often been called

a more intimate setting for the
show with his five-man band.

all of whom have at least two years

going to turn out to be a very good
problem for us in the sense that I
think we'll be in pretty good shape
at quarterback,’’ Paterno said.
Newsome’s demotion has taken
a back seat in the headlines
because of McGloin’s performanc

To hear State College Borough Council President
Ron FilippeUi tell it. the council is responsible for the
long-term survival of the town.
And as student residents continue to pour into the
neighborhoods and act inappropriately due to alcohol
consumption, this task becomes more difficult.

Rezoning
discussed
Borough may still
look at property
By Anita Modi
OiLFG.AN STAFF WRICR
Even alter landowner Henry Sahakian with
drew a rezoning request that would have added
more student housing to Beaver Canyon, the
State College Borough Council is interested in
continuing to discuss the property on 25-1 E.
Beaver Ave.
Herman Slaybaugh. planner and zoning offi
cer of the State College Borough Planning
Commission, said the council was convinced
that R 2 the property's current designation
is not the right zoning for the lot.
He said the council did not drop its request to
have the planning commission draft a poten
tial rezoning ordinance alter Sahakian dropped
his.
“The council members are pursuing it on
their own." Slaybaugh said.
"They're thinking of rezoning the land as
something else, such as the hybrid RO-O zoning
designation."
R 2 allows for the property to host fraternity
houses, single family dwellings, elderly housing,
churches. daycares. community
centers, offices, nursing homes or private
schools.
But the hybrid RO-O designation would pro
vide the landowner with more flexibility
Slaybaugh said.
The drafted ordinance rezoning the property
as an RO-O lot would enable Sahakian to con
struct a building five stories high with under
ground parking and ground floor commercial
use. he said.
The other floors could host a rooming house,
multi-family housing or a maximum of 15 apart
ments of student housing.
Much less than the 42 units Sahakian had
originally planned tor. it still otters more space
than the one or two units allowed by the R 2 zon
ing designation.
The planning commission will draft an ordi-
nance calling for the rezoning of 254 E Reaver
Ave. from a R 2 to a RO-O designation to be dis
cussed in the future.
Should the council members vote to move the
ordinance forward, a public hearing will be
scheduled to call on the opinions of the commu
nity before the ordinance is officially passed.
Slaybaugh said.
Mayor Elizabeth Goreham said the rezoning
may serve as a compromise between two very
different designations: the R 2 designation that
stifled development of the land, and the CID
designation that would have significantly
increased the student density in Beaver
Canyon, to the dismay of many permanent resi
dents of the Highlands neighborhood.
“We need to find a healthy balance so that our
neighborhoods can survive and so that our stu
dents can feel that they are welcomed into the
community and have a nice place to live," she
said.
"The property is close to a neighborhood that
feels the pressure intensely right now, and they
