CADET SLOUCH
by Jim Earle
I Butt News Summary
By The Associated Press
The threat of another shut
down of worldwide air service
was raised Wednesday by pilots
unhappy with governmental anti
hijack efforts. Meanwhile, offi
cials in Washington and Havana
indicated the possibility of new
talks aimed at easing the air
piracy problem.
Four days after a hijacked
Southern Airways jetliner was
forced to Cuba with 31 persons
aboard, the president of the Air
Line Pilots Association, said he
believes a complete shutdown of
world air traffic the only route
left open to pildts seeking tougher
measures to prevent hijacks.
KENNETT SQUARE, Pa.—
Two policemen were shot and
killed early Wednesday behind
police headquarters in what was
called an ambush by “a cool
assassin."
Dist. Atty. William H. Lamb
of Chester County said: “This
was a brutal assassination-type
killing ... no casual type of
killing ... a planned, deliberate
attack . . . the work of a cool
assassin.”
“If this doesn’t work, I’m going to fake back trouble!”
Senate to Consider Bike Fee
(Continued from page 1)
“This is the only significant
part of the yell leader policy left
to be decided,” said Campbell.
The Day Care Center Board
will be presented for Senate ap
proval. Virginia Leahey, junior
elementary education major with
a certification in kindergarten,
was approved for Board chairman
at the Nov. 2 Senate meeting.
Board members up for Senate
approval are Gary Drake, gradu
ate working on masters in agri
cultural economics; Randy Ross,
junior business management ma
jor; Dr. Ben M. Crouch, Sociolo
gy Dept.; Dr. Sara Dawn Smith,
Education Psychology Dept.; Dr.
Walter F. Stenning, Curriculum
and Instruction and Educational
Psychology Depts.; Hubert Beck,
campus minister for the Lutheran
Student Center; and Joe Sawyer,
president of the University Na
tional Bank.
One more community member
will be presented at the meeting.
A book exchange program will
be presented by Fred Campbell,
chairman of rules and regulations
committee and Ron Bento, chair
man of student services. This
program would help students sell
books at a better price.
In essence, a temporary office
would be opened in the student
center so students may call in
and leave word they have a book
for sale. At the same time stu
dents may call in looking for a
book and be referred to a person
selling the book.
The Senate will also discuss
supplementary student govern
ment funds which is an additional
request for money from the re
serve fund of student service fees.
“For the past two years, the
student government has received
an annual $5,000 grant which
they did not receive this year,”
said Kruse. “Therefore the stu
dent government budget has been
cut and the Exchange Stq>re Ad
visory Committee has suggested
we ask for money fro \ Ale re
serve fund.”
The amount being asked for is
$2,500.
One under-graduate off-campus
senator position will be filled and
the vacancies of graduate busi
ness and graduate engineering
positions are to be announced.

Air Pollution
Course Offered
The Department of Meteorology
will offer a new course on the
meteorological aspects of air pol
lution during the spring semester,
1973.
Met. 463 will meet three times
each week, will have a credit value
of three semester hours, and will
be taught without a laboratory.
Course content will emphasize
the problems of air pollution in
the global atmosphere and will
consider environmental cycles,
waste products in the biosphere,
atmospheric pollution, natural
concentrations of atmospheric
constituents, pollution sources, at
mospheric transport, pollution
sinks, effects of pollution, moni
toring and surveillance and man
agement of air quality.
While the majority of the course
will be devoted to atmospheric
transport and diffusion, the
course will stress an environmen
tal aspect of pollution with em
phasis on sources, motions, and
sinks of pollutants.
“Meteorology and Atomic En
ergy” by D. H. Slade will be the
basic text with additional articles
selected from journals.
No prerequisite in meteorology
is required, but it will be desirable
to have had a mathematics course
through introductory differential
equations.
For additional information con
tact Robert C. Runnels, 845-5921,
or the office of the Department
of Meteorology at 845-6011.

ing official in the American
pacification program has re
signed his job “in sheer disgust
with the leadership and the phi
losophy being applied” to what
he calls a much-maligned cause.
Willard E. Chambers said in
his final report to the pacifica
tion agency: “I am no longer
willing to remain patient with
the parade of overranked nonenti
ties whose actions reflect their
own ignorance of Vietnam, of
the peculiarities of a people’s
war and of the requirements of
counterinsurgency.”

WASHINGTON — Democratic
leaders say the party should look
more to its governors for direc
tion in the aftermath of the
election landslide which buried
George McGovern.
An Associated Press survey of
state Democratic chairmen, Na
tional Committee members, state
legislators, governors and mem
bers of Congress showed strong
sentiment for diverting some of
the party’s focus from Washing
ton to the grassroots.
KANSAS CITY—Sen. Thomas
F. Eagleton said Wednesday that
he felt some members of the
George McGovern staff made him
a target of “scapegoatism” to
ward the end of McGovern’s un
successful presidential campaign.
Eagleton stepped aside as the
party’s vice presidential candidate
after disclosure about his medical
history.
WASHINGTON—A sharp rise
in the nation’s balance-of-pay-

was registered by another solid
increase in the rate of industrial

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.—
U. S. Ambassador George Bush
pledged Wednesday night that the
United States will continue gen-
erous voluntary financial support
for U.N. activities. He insisted,
however, that the U.S. contribu
tion for the regular budget be
reduced to 25 per cent.
Bush issued a statement on the
eve of opening discussion in the
General Assembly’s financial com
mittee of the U.S. request for the
cut in its assessment. The United
States pays 31V4 per cent of the
budget, by far the largest assess
ment. The Soviet Union is second
with 14.18 per cent.
