A Hostel Away from Home Mansion offers 18th century flair

By BETH REINHARD Most people think of youth

hostels as an inexpensive way to tour Europe.

But here in Philadelphia, travelers can stay in a quaint 18th century country mansion for only $6.25 a night and meet people from all over the world.

Located in the north end of West Fairmount Park overlooking the Schuylkill River, the Chamounix Mansion Youth Hostel provides guests with a comfortable bed, ful- ly equipped kitchen, bathing facilities and recreational activities.

Associate manager Phillip Frank, who is also a managerial

City Limits consultant for the Wharton Ex- ecutive Education Division, described the hostel as a "lodging place for people on their own steam."

Chamounix, which is chartered by American Youth Hostels Inc., hosts thousands of guests per year and attracts travelers from Great Britain, Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand and Israel, among other places.

"(We have) a wide variety of guests," Frank said, adding that Chamounix's six dormitories can accommodate up to SO people overnight.

College students comprise the majority of guests during the sum- mer while retreat groups, scouts and athletic teams stay at the hostel during the spring and fall.

Youth hostels originated in Ger- many in 1909 when a schoolteacher wanted to take a group of children into the country and arranged for overnight accommodations. About 30 years later, the idea spread to the United States, and there are now over 250 hostels nationwide.

Chamounix Mansion Youth Hostel in Fairmount Park provides masts with overnight accomodations

Pennsylvania has 17. Chamounix was the first youth

hostel in a United States city, Frank said. He added that the lodging caters to those who "think young."

"There is no age limit now," he continued. "Anyone willing to pitch in and help fellow travelers is

welcome." Frank explained that guests are

asked to clean up after themselves and do a brief chore every morning.

"It sounds bad. but it is no more than [you would] do if visiting friends," he said. "Part of why a hostel stays so inexpensive is

(because] guests pitch in. [It's a) cooperative operation."

But Chamounix is more than just an economical place to stay overnight. Established about 20 years ago by a community group interested in restoring the 180-year- old building, the hostel receives private donations of money and

antiques. Eighteenth century pain- tings and furniture give the lodging its unique flavor.

The hostel, which includes a ping-pong table, piano and televi- sion room, also provides a social atmosphere for friendly travelers.

NfflwiU rule on Wistar

Research funds could suffer

K> JA1 HI (.1 N and lli« \Klt M SSMAN

The National Instititutc of Health is expected to rule by Friday on a peti- tion calling for an Investigation of the Wistar Institute's role in the testing of a genetically engineered rabid vaccine in Argentina.

The petition was filed by the Foun dation on Economic Trends, a Washington i) ( organization led b) University alumnus Jeremy Kifkm which is active in fighting for strictet regulations of the biotechnology industry.

According to Andrew kimbrell, the legal coordinator for the Foundation, NIH will also have to announce within eight days whether it plans to impose sanctions against Wistar. NIH received the petition on luesday.

"If they are not taking these .K

lions, the only way [to proceed] is to Utigate." Kimbrell said "We would prefer that NIH resolve it themselves."

The petition alleges thai because Wistar scientists used government money in developing the vaccine, they had to adhere to government regula- tions requiring NIH approval before releasing gcncticalK altered organisms into the environment. The field ex- periments were conducted under the auspices of the Pan American Health Organization without the permission of the Argentine or U.S governments.

'The credibility of the guidelines and the ability to enforce them is at stake," Kimbrell explained "That's the basis ol our investigation.''

Wistar Associate Director Warren Cheston said yesterday that he will have to "wait and see" what the peli- tion states before making commenting.

Portions of the petition, made available to The Daily Pennsylvaman, argue that strong sanctions against Wistar arc necessary to prevent fur- ther violations by other biotechnology

Physics Department suffers from student apathy By AMY WESTFELDT

The Physics Department, one of the best endowed departments at the University, is suf- fering the effects of a national trend — low student interest.

The department has never attracted more

At the Crossroads Another In a semester-long series examining the liberal

arts and sciences than 12 majors a year over the last 15 years, despite the large number of faculty who bring in extensive research funds. Last year, eight physics majors out of a class of 1,200

graduated from the School of Arts and Sciences. Yet the department has 45 faculty members, 36 of whom are tenured and two of whom are women.

Physics Professor and Associate Undergraduate Affairs Chairman Paul Soven said this week that the low number of majors indicates a national decline of student interest in the physical sciences.

He also said that Computer Science, Engineering and modern biology are currently very popular science disciplines, and that in- creased interest in these subjects can detract students from physics.

Soven added that smaller liberal arts col-

leges tend to have a greater percentage of physics majors in their classes. He attributed these schools' success to the absence of com- petition from an undergraduate engineering program.

SAS Dean Michael Aiken said last week that he feels that both the admissions staff and the school have had problems persuading students who plan to major in the physical sciences to matriculate.

"I think the problem is we have not recruited enough students interested in the sciences, other than the pre-medical sciences," Aiken said.

And SAS Associate Undergraduate Dean

Ivar Berg said last week that high school students interested in the physical sciences tend to matriculate at small colleges.

"There's a fad in high school that small schools attract better physical science ma- jors," Berg said.

He estimated that only 25 percent of the top science students who express interest in apply- ing to the College actually matriculate.

"We're not doing as much as we might be doing to attract quality students," he said.

Berg added that SAS did not give the department the attention it needed over the last 15 years because other areas in the school took greater precedence.

"There were other fish to fry," he said this week, adding that the school had to first con- centrate on attracting a more qualified appli- cant pool before looking at distribution among departments.

But he feels that next year's freshman class will produce more physics majors than in previous years because of a recent effort by SAS and Admissions to better inform recruit- ment officers on the physical sciences.

In addition, Soven said that Physics began a policy last year of recruiting proscpective ma- jors by mailing information on the depart- ment to admitted applicants who expressed

Giving Thanks Coaltion members plan holiday meal for the needy

By DAVID LASKO Ever since the first Thanksgiving in 1620, the holiday has

been a time for generosity and feasting — one area group is at- tempting to make sure both of these traditions continue.

The University City Hospitality Coalition is hosting its an- nual Thanksgiving dinner at St. Mary's Church for families and individuals who can't afford their own meal. The group is also planning a poetry reading after the meal.

Coalition member Tim Dunn, parish sexton at the church, said yesterday that the food for the Thanksgiving dinner is be- ing donated by West Philadelphia groups, businesses and citizens.

The group has also received a "lot of support" from Univer- sity Dining Service, Philabundance and the ecology cooperative, he added. ^^^

According to Dunn, the coalition has posted signs outside of grocery stores "asking people to buy something on their way in" to donate for the meal. The group believes people are more willing to give if asked upon entering the store, rather than after they have finished their shopping.

The coalition has received "enormous support" from volunteers, especially medical school representatives, offering to cook and serve the meal, Dunn said, adding that he attributes the response to the fact that "Thanksgiving is a time for donations."

Adventure is first for the Outing Club

A University student climbs as part of an Outing Club trip

By CATHERINE ROSS College junior Adam Evans used to

go to class, come home to his High Rise North apartment, eat dinner at 1920 Commons and study every night. It was the same routine — every day, every week, every month.

Evans found himself a victim of mental fatigue, a common malady among University students. He was bored with his life and unmotivatcd. He had doubts about his future. He even considered hitting the road and becoming a traveling musician.

But Evans, now a pragmatic political science major, stayed with the grind — until he joined the Penn Outing Club, an active group dedicated to adventure.

In a matter of speaking, the club turned Evans' life around. It organizes at least one activity a week, arranging trips to go horseback riding, rock climbing, white water raf- ting, all season camping, cross- country and downhill skiing, cycling, parachuting and hang-gliding.

The group's goal, according to the club's president, Gary Greenstein, is "to get as many people as possible, as often as possible, as far away from Philadelphia as possible."

"The club provides a service that gets people together that want to do

similar things," said Susan Brodie. vice president of the club. "We get people together, and they plan out the trips. It's a nice feeling to get out of Philadelphia."

"We're very open to suggestions," said Brodie, a College senior. "We'll help people with whatever they want to do. We're not just leading trips — we're here to get people together that want to go."

Evans, who is a new member of the Outing Club, said he feels that students need to get away.

"Day-to-day life at U. of P. can be like sitting in a post office from eight to five — you can really get in a rut," Evans said. "Going away really put my head in the right place for learning — at least for a week. A lot of people complain about being pent up in the city, like they're not living. Classes are indirect learning experiences. Be- ing outdoors makes you feel like life is worth living again.

"The most important thing about getting away is that loose-footcdness that you come back with," Evans ad- ded. "You feel like you know yourself much better. Everyone has fantasies about packing it all in and just hitting the road."

Poindexter resigns and NSC staffer is fired WASHINGTON - President Reagan's na-

tional security adviser resigned yesterday, and a key operative who handled secret arms sales to Iran was fired as the administration disclosed that up to $30 million of the money the Iranians paid for United States arms was diverted to U.S.-backed Nicaraguan rebels.

Reagan, nonetheless, continued to defend his Iranian policy while admitting that one element of its implementation "was seriously flawed" and that he was not kept fully informed of his own aides' activities.

Meanwhile. Attorney General Edwin Meese revealed that the first U.S.-sanctioned arms shipment to Iran took place in 1985 without Reagan's knowledge and was approved by the president only after the fact. Administration sources, speaking on condition they not be iden- tified, said that Marine Lt. Col. Oliver North.

who was fired in the shakeup, gave Israeli of- ficials the go-ahead for that shipment on his own authority.

Reagan said he would name a commission to examine the role of his National Security Coun- cil staff, which directed the operation and has come under direct fire from the State Depart- ment for its operations, and the Justice Depart- ment will launch a full-scale probe of how the money was handled to determine whether federal crimes were committed in funneling money to the Contras at a time when Congress had banned direct U.S. military aid to them.

Reagan appeared in the White House briefing room on short notice to announce he was per- mitting his chief national security adviser. Vice Adm. John Poindexter, to resign to return to the Navy, and that North, one of Poindexter's deputies, had been "relieved of his duties on the

National Security Council staff." A knowledgeable source who declined to be

identified by name said that North was ques- tioned personally by Meese on Sunday in the at- torney general's office.

The day before, sources said. North was ques- tioned by a group of Justice Department lawyers for about 12 hours at his office in the Old Ex- ecutive Office Building across the street from the White House.

A White House aide close to North described the NSC officer as being in good spirits despite his dismissal.

"He's going to take his hits and support the president," said the aide, who insisted on anonymity.

Meese, following Reagan to the lecturn, told reporters that, with North's knowledge, $10 million to $30 million collected from the Ira-

is for U.S.-shipped weapons was siphoned by Israeli middlemen and transferred to bank accounts set up by Contra rebels fighting the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua.

House Majority Leader Jim Wright (D.-Texas) said Meese told congressional leaders at a private White House briefing that negotia- tions were carried out by Israel and the Iranians to reach a price, which was greater than the cost to the U.S. government. Wright said Meese described at least one of the transactions this way: Arms were sold to the Iranians for $19 million, after which the CIA reimbursed the Pentagon $3 million, covering its costs.

Of the $16 million "residue." Wright said, some $12 million was deposited in a numbered Swiss bank account for the Contras. and Adolfo Calero, a Contra leader, drew down the money. Implementation 'seriously flawed'

Officer: President did not consult with the Pentagon on arms control proposal

MANAMA, Bahrain — Iraqi warplanes flew their longest mission in more than six years of war yester- day and rocketed Iran's Larak Island oil export terminal in the southern Persian Gulf, setting two tankers ablaze.

They attacked Larak, 750 miles from Iraq's southern air bases, six hours after jets believed to be Iranian raided a French-operated oil platform off the United Arab Emirates, killing at least five workers.

It was the first raid on Larak. It is one of two makeshift terminals established at the gulf's southern end because of constant Iraqi raids that have disrupted traffic at the main Ira- nian export facility on Kharg Island in the northern Persian Gulf.

A war communique carried by the official Iraqi News Agency and monitored in Nicosia, Cyprus, described the raid as "unique." It said Larak was "turned into an island of wreckage and fire."

Earlier in the day. warplanes ih.u witnesses said were United States- made F-4 Phantoms raided the plat- form in the Abu al-Bakoosh oilfield near Iran's Sassan field about 30 miles from the United Arab Emirates.

Iran has Phantoms in its air force, but Iraq has only Soviet and French

combat planes. Iran's state-run media, also monitored in Nicosia, made no mention of the attack.

The United Arab Emirates govern- ment, which owns the Abu al- Bakoosh field, identified the attack- ing planes only as "foreign." It gave the casualties as five dead, 24 wound- ed and 10 missing.

Iran's official Islamic Republic- News Agency said the Iranian air force bombed economic and military targets at Dohuk, a city in northern Iraq, inflicting "substantial casualties and losses."

It claimed Iranian anti-aircraft missiles downed two Iraqi warplanes over northern and western Iran, one identified as a Soviet-built Su-22 fighter-bomber whose pilot was captured.

The Iraqis said 164 planes took part in raids yesterday.

The Baghdad communiques did not mention losses, but they reported at- tacks on various targets, including what were described as military camps and a military railroad station around De/lul and Andinieshk in western Iran.

According to the Iranian agency, 30 civilians were killed and many wound- ed by Iraqi bombs that exploded in residential areas.

International Mother of quintuplets dies at seventy-seven

TORONTO — Still haunted by the fame that descended upon their log farmhouse in 1934, the Dionne family reunited in sadness at the funeral of Elzire Dionne, mother of the Dionne quintuplets.

Three of the quintuplets, Annette Allard. Cecilc Langlois and Yvonne Dionne, quietly joined 70 family members at a North Bay, Ontario, funeral home Sunday night for the private Roman Catholic service. The two other quints died when they were adults.

Mrs. Dionne, 77, died of natural causes three weeks after her alienated daughters paid her a rare visit from Montreal. Their father, equally estranged, died in 1979.

National Oct. consumer prices: cars rose, energy fell

WASHINGTON — Consumer prices rose just below 0.2 percent last month as increases for new cars and auto financing overtook a fresh dip in energy prices, the govern ment reported yesterday.

The increase in the Labor Department's Consumer Price In- dex followed a 0.3 percent rise in September. Prices have been edging up since April, the last month in which a decline was recorded.

Still, over the last 12 months, prices overall have climbed only 1.5 percent — a level not seen since the 1960s. By contrast, the inflation rate for all of 1985 was 3.8 percent.

Economists predicted that infla- tion would rebound to about 4 per- cent in 1987, now that the precipitous drop in oil prices has ended and a declining dollar is mak- ing imported goods more expensive.

While inflation continued to be a bright spot in the economy, a separate Commerce Department report showed that factory orders for "big ticket" durable goods fell 6 percent in October, the biggest plunge in more than two years.

Christmas toys feature futuristic technology

NEW YORK — Computerized cuddles and space age action are leading the high technology push by toymakers to lure Christmas shop- pers, but no new blockbuster items have emerged and analysis predict only a so-so buying season.

The cuddles come from high-lech plush toys, which debuted last year with talking creatures such as Ted- dy Ruxpin and since have mutated into a number of "life" forms.

The action comes from characters like 22-year-old Cil Joe and newcomers such as Lazer Tag, which are among the toys pegged by industry analysts and retailers as the hottest of the Christmas season.

In addition, there are updated versions of dolls, board games and other perennial favorites.

Reporter and pilot die in crash of helicopter

CINCINNATI — A traffic- reporter who had been troubled by- last month's death of a New York City newswoman in a helicopter crash was killed yesterday when her radio station's chopper smashed in- to trees in dense fog.

Unlike the New York crash which killed WNBC traffic reporter Jane Dornacker, Nancy McCormick of WKRC was not broadcasting live at the time.

The turbine-powered, five-seat Bell Jet Ranger helicopter leased by WKRC went down on a muddy hillside about two miles from Lunken Airport, not long before federal air traffic controllers suspended landings because of the fog, said police spokesman Howard Nichols.

Pilot Dan Gould. 31, of Dayton, also was killed. He had a commer- cial pilot's license and was certified as an instructor.

Iraqi planes raid oil export center in Iran

WASHINGTON - The nation's top military officer told Congress yesterday the Pentagon wasn't con- sulted on the military effects of a ma- jor nuclear arms control proposal before President Reagan offered the plan to Soviet Leader Mikhail Gor- bachev at the Iceland summit.

The United States offer to eliminate all atomic-tipped nuclear missiles within a decade caused "real con- cern" among U.S. military leaders, said Adm. William Crowe, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The proposal was discussed by Reagan and Gorbachev at their sum- mit meeting in Reykjavik last month and is still under consideration at ongoing nuclear arms reduction talks in Geneva, Crowe said.

During the 10 days before the meeting was announced, there were general discussions about various combinations of nuclear arms reduc- tions, Crowe told the House Armed Services Committee.

"The general feeling was there would be some addressing of arms control issues at Reykjavik, but not much progress," he said.

But when Rep. Les Aspin (D.-Wis.), the panel's chairman, ask- ed if the five-member Joint Chiefs, the nation's top military body, had studied the military impact of eliminating all nuclear missiles, Crowe answered, "No."

"We didn't think the proposals at Reykjavik would go that far, that

fast," Crowe said, adding later that "if I knew then what I know now, I would advise the president differently."

The Pentagon is rushing to com- plete a study about the military effect of eliminating all nuclear weapons and expects to have it finished by mid- January, said Crowe.

Had the Pentagon known that the United States planned to propose eliminating all nuclear missiles within a decade, Crowe said he thought "we would have put more effort" into a detailed analysis of the effects.

Crowe said the Pentagon is not stu- dying an even more sweeping pro- posal, reportedly considered in Iceland, involving the elimination by both superpowers of all nuclear weapons. That would also include bombers and atomic-tipped cruise missiles.

There is no major effort to deter- mine the impact of that plan because "I don't think it's a practical pro- posal," Crowe said in answer to questions.

During the hearing, Crowe said that neither he nor other top Pentagon of- ficials were aware of the shipment of U.S. arms to Iran.

"This is not the JCS I used to know," said Aspin. "I wish you were more involved in the process" of ad- vising Reagan on chief national security issues such as major arms control proposals or secret arms shipments.

Senior judges to work in city courts Chief Justice hopes to reduce backlog of cases

PHILADELPHIA - The state Supreme Court Chief Justice, at the urging of the Philadelphia Bar Association, said yesterday he would assign four senior judges to help reduce the case backlog in the beleaguered Philadelphia court system.

Chief Justice Robert Nix said the judges, whom he will select from other parts of the state, will work in both the criminal and civil courts.

"They will serve with 20 Philadelphia senior judges until this emergency is over." Nix told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.

"We are, of course, ever vigilant to make certain that this situation does not adversely affect the prompt disposition of cases through the system. It is for that reason that we have provided the additional manpower."

Earlier yesterday, the Philadelphia Bar Association urged the governor, state Legislature and Nix to take emergency steps to restore confidence

in Philadelphia's court system follow- ing the recent indictments of two judges in a bribery case and allega- tions of misconduct against others.

Chancellor Bennett Picker, speak- ing for 10,000 lawyers, proposed that: any judge under suspicion be im- mediately suspended; Gov. Dick Thornburgh and the legislature set aside political differences and fill court vacancies, and the chief justice assign out-of-city judges to local courts.

A report issued over the weekend by the Citizens Crime Commission estimated the backlog in Common Pleas Court at 6008 cases, a 9.5 per- cent increase over 1985 and a 165 per- cent jump since 1977. The report said Municipal Court faced a 9,265-case backup, up 23 percent from 1985 and 93 percent from 1977.

Figures compiled by the district at- torney's office put the Common Pleas backlog at more than 9400 cases.

Two Municipal Court judges were indicted last month by a federal grand jury on charges they accepted $300

each from the Roofers Union in ex- change for favors from the bench, and at least 12 other judges reportedly are under investigation by the FBI.

"All judges who are the subjects of investigations into alleged misconduct relating to the activities of the Roofers Union. . .and who are also the sub- ject of an investigation by the Penn- sylvania Judicial Inquiry and Review Board should immediately be suspended from all judicial duties," Picker said. "The public has the right to expect that judges who are actively carrying out judicial duties be above suspicion."

Nix, however, declined to suspend all judges under suspicion, beyond six already relieved of their official duties.

"All those who have been targeted, who are subjects of the investigation, have already been removed," the chief justice said. "Those who are before the Judicial Board, and that means there are no criminal charges against these individuals, under our constitution we have to wait for a

recommendation. You have to give people due process, even judges."

Picker, who met privately with Nix yesterday morning, said justice in Philadelphia "is literally grinding to a halt for many of our citizens who are finding that the court system is in- creasingly inaccessible."

Picker said the Judicial Inquiry board should act on its misconduct in- vestigations before the end of this year.

"No one is served by the continued cloud that hangs over a significant portion of our judiciary," Picker added.

There are five vacancies on the 82-member Common Pleas Court, and Picker said the squabbling bet- ween the Republican governor and the Legislature should end over who should be appointed to fill them.

If not. Picker urged Governor-elect Robert Casey, a Democrat, to begin now "the evaluation of judicial can- didates so that he can be prepared to make nominations immediately upon taking office in January."

Gorbachev, Gandhi criticize SDI program NEW DELHI. India — Soviet leader Mikhail

Gorbachev, on his first trip to the Third World, yesterday warned that "chains of militarism" threaten man's survival and called for new in- itiatives to halt the nuclear arms race.

Gorbachev and Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi both blamed the United States "Star Wars" pro- gram for obstructing progress toward a nuclear-free world.

The Soviet leader said his Iceland summit with President Reagan revealed "the obstacles and forces" that block nuclear disarmament. The talks broke down over Reagan's refusal to accept the Soviet demand that the Star Wars program to develop a space-based anti-missile defense not in- volve tests outside the laboratory.

"The chains of militarism hold up progress," Gorbachev said. "The arms race devours the resources that are so badly needed to solve the burn- ing problems affecting the lives of hundreds of millions of people.

"The situation urgently calls for a new approach to security issues, a new thinking in politics and a

new philosophy in international relations. Survival of mankind must be placed above all other in- terests. . . ," Gorbachev said at a banquet follow- ing his first talks with Gandhi during the four-day visit.

Gandhi said Star Wars, formally known as the Strategic Defense Initiative, "dangerously jeopar- dized" world security. He praised Gorbachev's pro- posals for arms reduction and called him "a crusader for peace."

Gorbachev, 55, and his wife, Raisa, received a tumultuous welcome when they arrived in the In- dian capital earlier yesterday.

"It is a kind of reception which I haven't received anywhere," an Indian government spokesman quoted Gorbachev as saying.

Tens of thousands of Indians, many of them flag- waving schoolchildren, lined the 10-mile route from the airport to the sandstone Presidential Palace where Gorbachev is staying. Many of the people were bused from villages by Gandhi's Congress Party.

Police detained about 55 Afghan exiles who tried to approach the route to demonstrate against the continued Soviet military presence in their homeland. Gandhi, 42, described Gorbachev's visit as historic and said "it will be a turning point in fur- ther strengthening" relations between the two coun- tries, which signed a major friendship treaty 15 years ago.

India, a founder of the non-aligned movement, has close ties with the Soviet Union and has refrain- ed from publicly attacking the 1979 Soviet military intervention in Afghanistan.

But India also has expressed interest in improving relations with the United States and buying sophisticated American technology.

Details of Gorbachev's talks with Gandhi were not disclosed, but it was believed that the two leaders discussed the Soviet leader's new Asian- Pacific security plan, which he unveiled at Vladivostok on July 28.

New Delhi has seemed wary of the proposal, seen as a Soviet peace overture to China, which is India's bitter rival.

More Than a Place to Sleep

Fairmount Park youth hostel welcomes visitors (Continued from page I)

with Chamounix since 1979, em- phasized thai the shelter allows travelers many personal opportunites.

"It's a chance to meet other travelers, not just a cheap way to travel," the manager said. "[Guests] get a fairly warm welcome here."

"It's fun — I enjoy meeting people from all over the world," added Ann Majewski, a "houseparent" at the hostel.

The term houseparent was coined when farm couples were the tradi- tional managers of early hostels, which consisted of bunkbeds in barns, Frank explained.

Majewski, who resides at Cha- mounix with her husband and daughter, described the hostel as "a home away from home."

Australian Colin Meares, who toured Europe for a year and is spen- ding several months in the U.S., said that Chamounix's unique atmosphere makes it distinctive from other hostels.

"This |hostell is a lot warmer, has more character and is much prettier [than other hostels]," he explained.

"Others tended to be big and institutionalized."

"The small touches make it like a home, " Meares continued. "It's nice to be somewhere comfortable. It's well run and clean."

Hosteler Wayne Isaac, an accoun- tant from Winchester England, feels the setting and 18th century flavor make Chamounix a special place to stay.

"1 have only been in one other [hostel] like it," Isaac said, adding that "it's belter to stay in a house" in- stead of a hotel.

Meares, a real estate agent, said

that Chamounix offers social oppor- tunities as well as privacy.

"You get to meet people," he said. "And the areas of privacy arc \er> nicely fitted OUt."

But Meares added that the hostel has two drawbacks — its distance from Center City and an II p.m. curfew.

"[Chamounix] is a long way from town and shopping," he said. "You lose a lot of time in [using] transportation."

According to Frank, visitors "all like the hostel, but some people think it's far out."

Check-in time is from 4:30 to 8

p.m.. and hostelers arc expected 10 check out by 9:30 a.m. Visitors who are not American Youth Hostel members must pay an additional V fee.

Alice Wells, president of the Delaware Valley Council of American Youth Hostels, which includes over 75 hostels, said last week (hat public awareness of hosteling needs improvement.

UA discusses charges for 1987 Spring Fling

The Undergraduate Assembly discussed Physical Plant charges for Spring Fling at their meeting Monday night.

In the 20 minute session which members said was the shortest of the year. Student Activities Council Finance Committee Chairman Jeff Zajkowski reported that he had conferred with Physical Plant about billing for last year's and this year's Fling in an effort to avoid increas- ed costs this year.

Physical Plant officials told UA members that the up- coming Fling will cost no less than $15,000, an increase of more than $2500 from last year.

Last week, Zajkowski said $15,000is "probably about the absolute upper limit" that SAC will be able to afford for the event.

Last year Fling was plagued with funding problems, leading to a loss of $8948. Reported cost estimates for last year's Ring by event coordinators differed widely and UA members said Monday that there was never a written estimate.

Physical Plant officials told Zajkowski that they originally set the actual estimate at approximately $12,000, which was the amount charged. But some UA

members said Monday that they had understood the estimate to be much lower, in which case Physical Plant would be responsible for paying the difference.

Zajkowski also said Physical Plant had no cost breakdown on the charges for last year's Fling, making it difficult to assess how costs this year can be reduced.

U. police investigating College Hall burglary

University police are investigating the burglary of a College Hall room, which was reported Monday.

University Police Lt. Steven Heath said yesterday that a University employee notified officers Monday morning that several portraits, lamps, calculators, radios and various personal possessions were missing from offices in room 19 of College Hall.

When officers arrived at the building, they discovered a grate which covers a window on the south side of the building had been removed from its frame.

Heath said that contractors had been working on the fire escape in the area where the break-in was discovered, using the window to gain access to the fire escape. The person who reported the burglary did not know if the grate had been secured after the contractors had finished working.

THE PENN BAND HIT THE ROAD LAST WEEKEND, bringing their characteristic zaniness to the Cornell game.

Name That Tune Members of the band showed their spirit by waving Quaker shakers. But the real music to everyone's ears was the game.

Andy Fr(edm«n/Daily Pennsylvania!!

The high note came when the Quakers iliruhcd Iheir fifth consecutive lv\ League title.

SAS, Admissions try to attract students interested in Physics (Continued from page I)

interest. And last week College faculty ap-

proved a new major program which allows a student to choose from three separate Physics concentrations: pure physics, premed physics, which also includes chemistry courses, and com- puter techniques.

Department Chairman Ralph Amado said last week that the low number of majors in relation to the high number of faculty members is typical of most major research universities.

He added, however, that the faculty has a large teaching responsibility to nonmajors. There is a high demand for introductory physics courses because they are prerequisites for

premeds, many natural science majors and Engineering School students. All the introductory courses are taught by standing faculty.

Amado also said that the 45 faculty bring in $10 million each year in exter- nal research grants, with most of the funds coming from federal agencies. SAS Associate Dean for the Natural Sciences and Physics Professor Walter Wales said that the depart- ment has more external funds than any other in SAS.

The National Academy of Sciences ranked the University 14th out of 123 departments in 1982, placing it last out of the six Ivy League schools in- cluded in the evaluation. The ranking is based on the faculty's reputation for scholarship and the graduate

program. Amado added that research grants

make it possible for Physics to have a large staff.

"If we did not do any research, we'd have a faculty of 25," he said.

According to Wales, faculty can lessen their teaching workload and draw part of their salaries from the grants, instead of SAS paying them a full salary.

"We need to maintain our intellec- tual strength, partly because it pays the bills," Amado said. "If this University wants to be a major research university, they had better have people who are participating in one of the greatest intellectual developments that humankind has ever known."

According to Amado. the physici major is one of the most challenging in SAS. In a published report last year by the dean's office, average grades in physics courses were the lowest in the school.

"We're proud of that." Amado said. "We grade hard, but our COUPJM are extremely well rated."

Physics Professor and Associate Graduate Affairs Chairman David Balamuth said yesterday thai the department's 100 graduate Itudoitl are mostly supported by faculty research grants. The remainder earn a stipend as well as free tuition Bl teaching assistants.

Balamuth estimated that 50 percent of the graduate students are not American citizens, reflecting what he

called a national trend He added thai a ligniflcani majorit) ol the interna lional students are Chinese

He attributed the high percentage of foreign students to a riling Euro pean inteiesi m physical icience research.

Outing Club activities take students to new heights away from daily plane of U. life (Continued from page I)

ed a lull in membership in recent years, now has 100 participants this semester.

The rock climbing program has been the most popular. "We have some awesome climbers that love to take out beginners," Greenstein said.

Members of the club have been climbing in the Bugaboos in Canada, Joshua Tree in California, the Schwangunks in New York and other

mountains in the northeast. Club members are currently planning a climbing trip to California during spr- ing break, and a trip to Yosemite is in the works for the summer.

Faculty also join the Outing Club. Physics Professor Michael Cohen is a member of the club, and he has set up first routes in Colorado.

Locally, club members climb rocks in Fairmount Park and various buildings around campus. King's

Court/English House, the wall at Hill House and the playground at St. Mary's Church all make for good climbing, reports Greenstein.

The Furness Building is not so good: "It's too easy, and it crumbles," he said.

The Outing Club makes an effort to make their activities accessible to anyone who wants to join the club, and new members need not worry about scaling Mt. Everest the first

concerns. "If no significant sanctions are im-

posed on the Wistar Institute, other institutes will follow its example and

will engage in an irresponsible, illegal 'shopping' for countries with little or no biotechnology regulations in which to release their recombinant DNA organisms," the petition reads.

Free Thanksgiving dinner (Continued from page I)

Even though the coalition has received a positive reaction from the community, Dunn said that the group is still encouraging "volunteers to come help, and eat with the people" on Thanksgiving.

In addition to tomorrow's dinner, St. Mary's Church Administrator Sal- ly Day said yesterday that UCHC pro- vides dinner five nights a week at various area churches, and Thursday night is "(St. Mary's) regular meal night."

The University Lutheran Church, Penn Newman Center, Church of the Savior and Woodland Presbyterian Church also participate in the daily

meal program. "Usually there are at least 100 peo-

ple (at the meals]," Day added. Despite the community's support of

the meal program, Dunn believes the coalition faces a difficult task in con- tinuing to respond to the needs of University City's poor.

"Our number one concern is [to keep the meal plan alive) this coming winter," Dunn said, adding that the group recently acquired a bus from LeBus Restaurant and hopes to use it for food distribution.

"We need support for our bus. . .to fix it, and make it a meal sight or mobile meal unit," he explained.

Several NIH guidelines are cited as having been violated by the ex- periments in Argentina. According to the petition, federal regulations re- quire consultation with the agency before any projects supported by NIH funds can be conducted abroad.

In the petition, the Foundation defines support as any money that contributes to any phase of the pro- ject — including laboratory develop- ment of a vaccine.

"Any attempt to segment a project in order to escape regulations is con- trary to the spirit and the content of the guidelines," Kimbrell said.

The possible penalties requested in- clude NIH limitation, constriction or termination of funding to Wistar.

week. "Experience is not necessary to par-

ticipate in an Outing Club trip, because we'll provide the training." Greenstein said. "Obviously you can't climb Yosemite if you're not good enough, but anyone is welcome to try. Members of the club train all climbers, and teach them safety first."

Club leaders explain procedures for climbing safely once each semester. In top-roping, as opposed to lead climb- ing, two people are involved in mak- ing the climb safe. The rope is fasten ed to the top of the rock, and around the climber. The belayer stands on the ground holding the other end of the rope. If the climber slips, it is the belayer's job to keep hold of the rope to prevent a fall.

"Climbing itself is not dangerous." said Greenstein. "It's the belaying that is, because if you don't catch the

person, they'll die " Because ol the potential danger,

climbing is limited to warm weathei During the winter, serums climbers train on their own. mostf) by doing pull-ups to keep their upper body strength.

Serious climbers also practice on a climbing wall — an indoor facility. A climbing wall marks I university's commitment to the sport, and the club is trying to gel the University to build such a facility.

But the club leaden have other complaints, too. "The University sup plies no storage facilities al all." said (ireenstein. "All the equipment has to be stored in members' houses, most ol it in my living room."

And the ail-too commmon gripe about a lack of funds is also a com plaint of the Outing Club.

Besides climbing the group also in- dulges in rafting. Leonard Zangwill.

College iiinioi and an officer of the club, describes himself as a "rafting maniac." but he said he tried a few activities before he found one right for him.

"The lirst trip I went on was cross- COUntT) skiing." /angwill said. "And I was a WT) poor skier But It was fun, and they taught me very well. I he leaders were really helpful. It didn't mailer if you were a great skier or a real klut/ like me."

But then he discovered rafting and got addicted. "It's a ton of fun," he said.

The club organizes trips for all ex- perience levels. Rivers are rated on a scale of one to six. A level one is flat water, and a six is characterized by steep drops and holes in the river. Members of the club themselves guide tups up to level four waters.

HAPPY HOUR

Penn Rules

Almost four years ago, I received acceptance letters from both Penn and Cornell. During the last week in April, I visited both campuses to decide where to go.

First I drove up to Cornell. It snow- ed. And snowed. And snowed. 1 hadn't brought shoes with traction soles. After all, it was late April —

too late for snowfall, or so I thought. I slipped and slided my way through the entire campus tour.

Three days later I visited Penn. It was sunny and breezy and generally a peachy-keen kind of day. People

^■^^^"^^^™ were sitting out on College Green and eating lunch and smiling and laughing as we toured the campus.

Needless to say, I chose Penn. This past weekend I once again

visited Cornell, this time for the big football game. My friends up there love their school, and I'm sure that if I had chosen to go there 1 would have enjoyed it too. But 1 love Penn, and 1 wouldn't trade my years here for anything. And my experiences this past weekend convinced me that I had made the right choice. Here's why:

•Penn is flat. Cornell isn't. Everything at Cornell is up a hill or a mountain. Nothing is downhill. Even if you walked up a hill to get to a class, you somehow have to walk up a hill to get back the same way. Unless it's icy and you have no traction. Then it's downhill and you're sure to fall and break a limb.

The biggest hill at Penn is the 38th Street Bridge. And that's just the way I like it. After all, I'm majoring in psych, not mountaineering.

•Philadelphia has a reputation for bad weather. Personally, 1 never minded Philly weather. I've visited

Cornell three times in my life. Every time there was snow. Every time it was freezing. And every time the hills were icy. Compared to Cornell, Philadelphia is a tropical island.

•We're the Ivy League football Champions. Cornell is not. We Penn fans were treated to an awesome game, a fifth straight Ivy title, an undefeated season and collection of all bets with our Cornell friends.

•Penn has better songs than Cor- nell. They've got "Mary had a Little Lamb Fight, Mame, Kill" and "Give My Regards to Broadway," and most of them don't even know the words. And what's with this "Screw B.U., Penn too"? Could they do better than some'generic, mad-libs style, fill-in- the-opponent's-name-here cheer?

We, on the other hand, have "Hang Jeff Davis," "The Red and the Blue," and "Drink a Highball," and most of us can sing along — we've got real school spirit.

(I must admit that I had a problem explaining the meaning of "Hang Jeff Davis" to my Cornell friends. The on- ly plausible explanation for the lyrics that I've come up with is that Annie has mafia ties and has each of her former lovers killed when she gets tired of them. Jeff was hanged. McGinty was fitted with ice shoes and dropped to the bottom of the sea. Joe and Annie are an item now, so Annie isn't in the market for any more ice shoes at the moment, expletive deleted.)

(If anyone can either confirm this account for the lyrics or offer an alter- nate explanation, please let me know in a letter to the editor — hint, hint. For now, suffice it to say, we've got fun, original, tradition-filled Penn songs.)

•Penn's got Philadelphia. Cornell has Collegetown and Ithaca. We often take the fact that we live in a major ci- ty for granted. But the great thing about Penn is that your options are open. You can stay on campus all

four years and keep busy with campus arts and local bars. Or you can get an apartment downtown, submerge yourself in Center City life and only come to campus for classes. Most of us fall somewhere in between. The point is, we have a choice. Cornell's Collegetown is not a choice. How many times can you go to Ruloff's or The Connection? And the nearest city is several hours away. Collegetown's a nice, quaint place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there for four years.

•Everything at Penn is within 10-15 minutes walking distance. Everything at Cornell isn't. The rule up there seems to be that you can't have two consecutive classes or activities on the same side of campus. Personally, I won't take a class in DRL because the walk is too long. I'd never make it at Cornell.

•Penn holds the Ivy League title for the fifth straight year. Cornell does not. I know I said this before, but that was really what this weekend was all about, wasn't it? It was truly an awesome day for everyone who made it up to Ithaca for the game, and especially for seniors, as we watched our last game and the fourth Ivy title during our time at Penn.

Penn and Cornell are very similar in many ways. I'm sure that most of us could have been happy if we had gone there.

But there's no question that we got the better end of the bargain. Penn rules, in football and, quite frankly, in everything else.

Hurrah, Hurrah Pennsylvania.

Laura Eriel, a College senior, is a former associate business manager of The Daily Pennsylvanian. She would like to tell her Cornell friends not to take this column loo personally. She also thanks them for the drinks she won and for not making her sleep out in the snow Saturday night. Happy Hour has appeared alternate Wednesdays.

"Day of publick Thanksgiving. At 3 post meridian Mr. Willard comes abroad and Prays to the great Refreshment of the Congregation. This is the first time since his sickness."

— The Diary of Samuel Sewall. entry for November 21. 1700

"Yo, Sam, quit hogging that turkey! All you do is gobble, gobble!"

— The Diary of Mrs. Samuel Sewall. entry for November 21. 1700

• November 22, 1700. Oh, what a Thanksgiving it was! I remember it like it was yesterday.

The day started on a rather jaunty note. My son Rolfe just can't let those

1 Indians alone — likes to tease them about the feathers in their hair. Well, early morning, it being Thanksgiving and all, Rolfie figured he would play a little holiday prank on the locals.

Originally, he told me he was planning to put a wig on top of their warn. So 1 said to my son, "Son, you just did that on Veterans' Day."

"Oh yeah. Pop, guess I'll have to peepee on their teepee instead."

Unfortunately for my little Rolfie, the Indians weren't in particularly good humor that morning. And Rolfe came home with no hair.

I, being the head of this fine, upstanding Puritan household, went to make peace with the tribesmen. So I went over, and I said, "Hey, guys, let's make peace."

But they thought I said, "Let's make peas." So we did. It was mega-weird. They kept their peas in this big metal

tube. Soon, one of them started passing around the peas pipe.

Anyway, one thing led to another, and before you know it, we were eating peas 'cause we had the munchies, and I saw this turkey trot across the camp. I started running after it.

"Man, look at that turkey run," I heard one of the In- dians say. Eventually, I caught up with it, grabbed it by its goiter-thing, stuck a knife in its chest and cried, "Good gongamonga! Let's eat!"

"He killed Herbic!" one of the young braves bawled. Everyone ignored him.

All the Indians were getting hit after hit off the peas pipe — not bad for a team that batted .211 during the regular season. Their leader. Spike, suggested that I sum- mon wife and children (even Rolfe), as well as the rest of the town, to celebrate the peas together.

A little while later, the townspeople arrived bearing gifts. Mr. Sarducci brought some aluminum foil. "It's a pure-a-tin!" But most folk brought food.

Mrs. Whitefield bore pumpkin pic. Mrs. Hutchinson prepared stuffing, and Mr. Hutchinson stuffed it in the peas pipe. Mr. Hempstead arrived carrying a bowl of orange paste.

"It's yams!" he beamed. Mr. Winthrop ran down to the A & P and fetched some

canned cranberry sauce. Mr. Edwards brought the wine — a nice dry California chablis. And Mr. Hank Taylor was accompanied by his favorite primate, the gibbon.

The whole town was there, or so we thought. Suddenly, someone asked, "Where's Mr. Willard?" It was true — Mr. Willard wasn't there.

"1 heard he was sick," someone said. "Damn, I heard he was going to be bringing

Refreshments," piped in another. And wouldn't you know it — God's work be done — I

spied Mr. Willard stumbling down 1-95. "Here comes Mr. Willard," I cried.

"Is he carrying Refreshments?" a voice from the crowd yelled.

"Yeah," I replied, "They look great." By the time Mr. Willard staggered into camp with a cou-

ple of cases, the turkey was being roasted in the oven. 1 walked over to the oven and, sure enough, I could hear Dean Martin: "I remember when this turkey was starring

in Disney movies like Herbie the Perky Turkey." Funny guy, that Deano.

Someone shouted, "What time is it?" "Three post meridian," came the reply. Mr. Willard suddenly started Praying to the great

Refreshment of the Congregation. "It's the first time since his sickness," his wife pointed out, elated.

Since it was three post meridian, we all gathered to watch the Lions-Cowboys game. We had been sitting there for about a minute when someone exclaimed, "Wait a minute, we don't have a TV."

"Don't have one?" someone else replied. "I don't even know what the hell a TV is."

Suddenly there was a cry. Seemed that little skinhead of mine had gotten himself into more mischief. He had rubb- ed cranberry sauce all over Spike's little girl, Mario, chan- ting, "I buried Paul," a mystifying reference to "Strawberry Fields Forever."

Unfortunately for my little Rolfie, the Indians weren't in particularly good humor that afternoon. And Rolfe ran back to my wife with no hands. "Look, Ma, no hands!" he warbled.

Anyway, it was half past three (post meridian), and the turkey and stuff were ready. We all took seats 'round the ole picnic table, passed the food 'round and prepared to eat.

Before we could get fork to mouth, though. Spike notic- ed that the monkey-like creature hanging onto Mr. Taylor looked mighty hungry.

"Hey, everyone," Spike announced, "What about Hank's gibbon?"

But we Puritans thought he said, "Thanksgiving." And so it was.

KEATS AND YEATS ON YOUR SIDE

I thought the reason I would be thankful tomorrow would be because I am living in a sheltered world where it doesn't matter if you don't pay your bills on time. It took me six weeks to pay a dining service bill, and they never gave me a hassle about ii. So I figured that I was lucky to be where you could eat and

not really have to pay. Eat now. pay later.

But that's wrong, because you don't have to pay at all. I have in my possession evidence ol tins It's lime to stop ragging on our cold world

"^^^^~™^"" because I have seen its lace up close, and I know that it can be defeated.

Let me qualify that: I can't claim any credit for looking the foul cor- porate beast in the eye and saying. "Bill me later." Ii was actually one William (as in bill, eh?) Melaler — a former occupant of the off-campus house of some friends — who deserves thai credit.

This is William's story, and yet, it belongs 10 all of us — it is one man fighting the system, winning and disappearing into the sunset. The

Bill Me Later original social bandit. It's a felony to open somebody else's mail, but I bring you this story because it is im- portant to know of the evil side of Time magazine and the victory of the common man.

Mr. Melater, it seems, subscribed to Time at a special discount rate of $1.12 per issue sometime last year. After 78 issues. Time sent him a bill for $87.36. As Mr. Melater was not around to pay said bill, they sent him a couple more, marked "overdue."

Then the axe fell. First form letter:

"Dear Sir or Madam: I have been requested to call your attention to your unpaid account with Time and to notify you that said account has been turned over to me for collec- tion. . .Fortunately, there is still lime to erase the computer record. . .but lime is running out. "

There's no signature on this one. just the printed-on "stamp" of one A.M. Dumanowski (more on him later).

The next one was better, carrying the autopenned signature of one E.P. Valk:

". . ./ sent you a bill. And another. And another. But I haven 'I heard a word from you. Is something wrong? Is there mm reason you haven't paid for your magazines? Will vou let me know?

So yesterday I tried to call E.P. Valk, along with A.M. Dumanowski at the Tune building in Chicago to give them a clue on their chances of finding this guy. But none of the secretaries seemed to know where cither of them worked, or even if either existed. "Couldn't tell you," said one. When I explained why I was trying to reach him. they sug- gested that I write a letter care of the company "and somebody will get back in touch with you."

it's good to know what sort of ac- countability we can expect from I he- private sector these days, particular ly when the form letter asks for it.

But the best letter was the clastic good-cop/bad-cop shpiel:

"Dear Iticndfemphasis mine). My name is M.R. Johnson, and I

work in the accounting department. A It hough we've never met, I'm writing you because I want to help you if I can.

Too many folks don't give others a helping hand these days. They 're busy or just don't care. But I don 7 want to be like that.

That's why I want you to know there's a computer here ready to send your name to a collection agen (i lor action against you. No* I know you don't want anvthmg to do with those people, so I put a 'hold' on VOW tCCOUttI in he '■lire the com- puter doesn 7 do anything rash. Ii

of this is that Time wouldn't bother sending this letter it they didn't think somebody would believe it and send the bucks. And they're pro- bably right, since the third note, printed in a fake script-style on fake memo paper, would seem personal enough to fool somebody who's not used to sorting through junk mail. You know, somebody who doesn't have any light in their apartment because they couldn't pay their elec- tric bills.

Anyhow, I also asked for M.R. Johnson in the credit department that I called to for the other two guyt I lie operators told me to ad- dress my concerns to him in writing, and he would get back to me. A se- cond operator told me to call the

The final note comes from the col lection agency Dial Adjustment Bureau of leaneck, NJ.:

Letters to the Editor Senior Blasts Zia for Encouraging Asian Separatism To the Editor:

Dan Zimmerman's article on the Asian-American experience at Penn addresses some very important issues facing Asians on this campus (DP, 11/10/86). However, I could not help but feel a great deal of frustration stemming from Mr. Haddon Zia's analysis and commentary on the breakdown of the sub-groups within the Asian community. His assessment is a typical illustration of how the negative attitude toward assimilation into American society perpetuates any racism that exists between Caucasians and Asians. "The while population wants to think that minority groups want to be assimilated." Surprise, Mr. Zia, a lot of us do, but it is not a denial of our heritage but an enrich- ment of the individual who values his identity as an Asian as well as an American.

The stereotypical Asian exists now, for the most part, due to the value system created by its own people. Math and science became obvious Fields for many Asian immigrants to enter since those disciplines spoke a universal language of numbers and scientific theory. English, history, and other liberal arts Fields were avoided because of the language barrier. The communication gap is no longer a valid excuse. Nevertheless, the at- titude prevails. When I was accepted to Penn four years ago, my parents' friends nodded in approval. Their Chinese friends, however, shook their heads in dismay when they discovered that my parents were actually going to "let" me study economics, history and whatever else I chose: "Wasn't she smart enough to get into the engineering school?" I agree with Mr. Zia in that the Asian stereotypes are negative. But our community has created them, and they will not be overcome without greater open- mindedness toward each other first as individuals, then as Asians.

Admittedly, the individual who achieves a balance between mixing with his "own" and mixing with those who are not is the ideal. However, I resent Mr. Zia's allegation that those of us who choose to associate with a predominantly Caucasian social circle "seek shelter in mainstream Universi- ty culture and actually shy away from Asian groups. . [We] feel funny

when [we're] around other Asians because it makes [us] realize that [we're] different." Hence, according to Mr.Zia, we "bananas" have not achieved the necessary balance. I beg to differ. In almost every way, I feel that I have achieved the balance in my identity as a Chinese-American. If I am "seeking shelter in the mainstream," then it is because my friends have accepted me as a compas- sionate, intelligent individual regardless of my heritage. Likewise, I accept my Asian friends not because they are Asian but because they possess qualities that I admire; their ethnicity is a mere coincidence. Ironically, the only disapproval I have met with is from my own people. My experience with members of the Chinese Students Association who have done nothing but try to make me feel that 1 am less Chinese for not joining them has left a bad taste in my mouth. That attitude is no way to pro- vide or encourage the existence of a "cultural haven." Many Asians direct their primary attention solely upon the promotion of our ethnic identity, becoming one-dimensional in their social existence. I, however, feel that I am able to integrate on every level. Ethnic identity is felt in the soul; it is not reflected in the choice of a social environment. Cultural isolation does nothing but exacerbate the problem of racism existing on this campus, or for that matter, anywhere.

Medical School Student Decries Albuquerque Piece To the Editor:

I would like to respond to Felipe Albuquerque's column entitled "The Mediocre Media" (DP, 11/18/86). It seems that you have entirely missed the point of Fokkema's picture depic- ting a Ku Klux Klan grandmother kissing her grandchild. In a recent in- terview, Fokkema stated that the seeming affection portrayed in the picture only makes it even more diabolical upon closer inspection. The mediocre photographer depicts the obvious; it is only the very good one who can instill many layers of mean- ing by choosing the right subject and setting. In Fokkema's case, it is precisely the fact that he takes a com- monplace event but superimposes it in a KKK setting that gives his

photograph such great impact. That a grandmother who can commit KKK atrocities is also able to affectionately kiss her granddaughter makes the theme much more frightening than before. Perhaps the gross misrepresentation and short- sightedness is on the side of the viewer, not the photographer, Mr. Albuquergue.

ALEX SPYROPOULOS School of Medicine '89

Logical 'Flaw' Pointed Out in 'Medicore Media' To the Editor:

I see a serious logical flaw in Felipe Albuquerque's analysis of the significance of the KKK photo in the October 27 issue of Newsweek (DP, 11/18/86). Mr. Albuquerque states that it was morally suspect for Newsweek to print the photo because it would draw attention away from the heinous nature of many acts of the KKK. In drawing this conclusion, he makes the unwarranted assumption (hat the only possible interpretation of this photo is one of sympathy for the Klan elicited by the cuteness of the scene. It is obvious to me that there are other possible messages to be gleaned from this photograph. For ex- ample, perhaps the photographer and Newsweek were pointing out the fact that obscenely inhuman acts can be committed by average people who love their families and friends. Unfor-

tunately, Fokkema's photo is far from "inaccurate" or "short- sighted," "offensive" though the aspect of human nature it points out may be. Witness the Milgram experi- ment and the Holocaust perpetrated by the Nazis.

Freshman Believes 'But Will It Fly?' is Fully Irrelevant To the Editor:

Over the past few weeks, much at- tention has been focused on the role of the DP. 1 agree wholeheartedly with Jeffrey Goldberg's view of a thought provoking, interesting newspaper, and I wish some of the DP's columnists would practice what he preaches. I'm referring in general to columns concerning personal ex- periences which have no discernaole relevance to this university and are about as thought-provoking and in- teresting as a Penn-Columbia football game. Specifically, I'm referring to "A Man Harassed by Pre-Laws" (DP, 11/19/86) appearing in the col- umn by Robert Mahlowitz entitled, "But Will it Fly?" Well, Robert, this particular column didn't fly, partly because I personally don't give a hoot about your predicament, but mostly because a real predicament is being cited on the next page by Erik Williams.

DENNIS MCCABE SEAS '90

Students Question Williams' Support of Violent Defense To the Editor:

This letter concerns Erik Williams' column (DP, 11/18/86). His ad- vocacy of armed self-defense was well-written and made some valid points about problems in America. However, he would have been acting more responsibly if he had pointed out some important ideas. Basically, Mr. Williams should have better defined what he meant when he said citizens should defend themselves when their lives are threatened. What constitutes a life-threatening situa-

tion? Most importantly, since Mr. Williams claims that people can de- fend themselves with "any means necessary," should not nonviolent tactics also be considered? Erik Williams would be doing everyone a favor if he would address these issues.

While the cause of innocent victims is a noble one for Mr. Williams to support, it is important that he em phasize that his words are not to be misconstrued as justification for vigilantism. Brutal tactics pervert even the most well-meaning movements. Perhaps Erik Williams should suggest more peaceful altei - natives to armed self-defense. Em- phasis on violent methods diverts at tention from more pacific techniques that are critical as long-range solu- tions for difficult problems.

Student Wonders Why Only 'White Racists' Mentioned To the Editor:

This letter is addressed to Erik Williams:

I admire your passion and commit- ment (DP, 11/19/86). Your words, however, are disturbing and not in the manner you intend them to be.

Why do you condemn only white racists? I realize whites comprise a majority of the population and therefore most racists must be white, but aren't all racists, no matter what their color, deplorable?

Why don't you recognize the need for solutions to the problems of pre- judice and intolerance? Isn't it more sensible for all people to work together toward mutual understan- ding, rather than to react by simply arming ourselves? Undeniably self- defense, as you mention, is necessary but must we ignore the causes of racism in the meanwhile?

You quote the expression, "as ye sow, so shall we reap." Mr. Williams, if we continue to blindly sow hate and violence, we shall soon reap hate and violence. Sadly, the lessons of Martin Luther King. Jr. are being forgotton.

SEAN CULLEN College '89

Freshman Praises Cornell University for Imitating Penn lo the Editor:

I et's hear it for Cornell. Alter all, they did put up a good

fight on Saturday.

After all, they did show some creative school spirit with "Quaker Oats: Breakfast of Champions."

After all. their "marching band" all but abandoned serious marching in favor of fun.

In fact, whenever I heard the Cor- nell Band play "Peter Gunn" or any other song lifted from our repertoire, I could have sworn it was our band. Whenever they chanted, I heard "Go, Penn, Go!" in their "Go, Red, Go!"

It was made obvious at Saturday's game what is going on. Cornell is clearly a Penn Wanna-be. I mean, a poor imitation, but an imitation nonetheless. Cornell's first imitation was in school colors. They took half of ours as their own. They were so thrilled that we didn't sue them or at least charge royalties, they decided that it was a big deal, a Big Red deal. And so their adjective of a mascot was born. Their marching band didn't march on Saturday — it ran around confused in a Quakeresque style. This half-time was no ordinary one as Cor- nell did its own version of our now defunct Senior Strut.

Walking around the CU campus I even came across something that has been a Pennstitution for years, (no, not Smoke's) CONSTRUCTION. I think it was an Executive Hotel Management Complex. I've heard that they've begun to renovate their dorms, just conspicuoulsy after our own Quad has been treated to wooden floors and handrails. They've even stolen our inferiority complex. Plans for the future probably call for cheesesteak trucks, an Urban Outfit- ter's outlet, more students from Long Island and Ithaca's own replica of the Liberty Bell. Of course, next year at the game, they'll be sure to bring toast.

However, imitation is the best form of flattery. So all I can say to our little protege school in Ithaca is thanks for idolizing Penn. At least you have good taste in heroes. And to Penn: "Nobody does it better."

(Continued from hack page) notched two victories, in the 50- and 100-yard freestyle*.

"I'm just really happy." Mc- Closkcy said. "Their two guys, who swam in boih the 50 and 100, are rc.ii ly good swimmers. I'm really happy with my times."

Pcnn's only other win came in the 400-yard freestyle relay, where freshmen Brk Peterson and Mike Morgan, sophmore Wayne Beckmann and freshman Jeff Seinebrey swam, respectively.

"Hey, we won three events." Mc- Closkey said. "Winning three event! (against Princeton|, it was a miracle for Penn."

Well, don't get elated with the loss But it is apparant lhat the defeat neither was disparaging, nor did it mark a setback in the swimmers' progress.

First of all. the Quakers featured varied lineups in an effort to measure the progress of swimmers in events other than their strongest and also to

test freshmen. "What we do in a meet like this is

we want to get people experience in events ihey normally don't swim in," McC'loskey said.

Al one point it appeared as though Penn was not taking the meet serious- ly at all. In ihe 200-yard backstroke, the Quakers pined only Jim Taylor against three Tigers.

"I guess nobody wanted lo swim in that event," McC'loskey said. "Their top two guys in that event (Dan Vcatch and Mike Ross) are really sirong."

"Everybody was loose," senior captain Mike Mattone said. "This |meet| was an opportunity to see what some people could do in events that maybe aren't in their best strokes. We used this meet as a tune-up for Col- umbia (Penn's next opponent). And we had some good swims. A couple of [freshmen] had their first oppor- tunities 10 swim."

One of those was Brad Bates, who had missed pre-season time because of

surgery he underwent to remove torn cartilage from his knee. He expressed excitement for getting into his first race and for the positive effect thai lineup altering has on regular IWUD mers. According 10 Bates, even though changing the lineups may be detrimental in the short-run. the shifts combat monotony.

"The mental break is definite!) refreshing." Bates said. "I rememhei always having to swim the same event in high school, and how boring that was. No matter who the other team was, everybody always swam their event. In a meet like this, where you have the opporunity to make the changes, it's a good idea."

In the diving, Steve Wivioti broke through the tedium. Though he C.IIIK

in last in both Ihe one and three- meter events, diving coach Jim Suiuli had nothing but praise for the freshman.

"He picked up 30-35 points from the first meet," he said. "II he keep! doing that, we'll be in the finals tl

|the Eastern championships). He needs more seasoning, but that's just more repetition. What's important is ih.ii he's out here having fun; [prac- tice! is not drudgery for him."

11<>in the three-meter board, Wivioti stunned Ihe crowd with an in- w.ud dive. He leaped high in the air, but Mislead of going out towards the ceniei of the pool, he went straight up. During his descent, Wivioti arch- ed Ins back and tilted his head lo the right, narrowly missing hitting his head agamsi ilie hoard. The crowd lisped Even two of the three judges peeled their heads hoping that they would DOl see a messv sight.

"He contend! there was no way he was goin| 10 hit the board," Smith said. "He nyi he knew where he was at all times."

Smith laughed. "I've seen a lot of close calls."

Mattone Hid, "I'm sure [Wivioil| knows what he's doing."

Didn't you cringe? "Well, a little bit."

experience as its middle name. The Quakers have 10 letterwinners back on ihe court, including three Matters.

"Last season we needed leadership, and we had to define leadership," Ashley said, "but you have to find the person who is leader of the leaders."

Leading Penn on and off the court will be 5-10 senior forward Janet Blaii (7.0 points per game, 5.5 rebounds per game last season), who was the Quakers top rebounder despite having a height disadvantage in the paini. At

the other forward position will be senior Mickey Finnegan (8.6, 5.4), whose recurring back pain has not stopped her from being considered the fines) Penn shooter in Ihe clutch.

Rounding out the senior starters will be 5-8 guard Robyn Fort sen (7.5, 3.4) who will try and fill the hole left by the graduation of June Staum- baugh, the number-two scorer in Quaker history.

One question mark for the Quakers will he at center. As a result of the lack of a dominant post player Penn

will be concentrating on its transition game to try and crack the Rams defense.

"We are going to run. we are going to live by speed," Ashley said. "We can beat [Textile] down the floor because they turn their backs a lot."

Leading Penn's offense in the backcourt will be sophomore Cheryl Rath. The 5-6 point guard is expected to be an integral part of the Quakers' new run and gun offense.

Even though Penn doesn't expect a turnaround overnight, this weekend's

tournament will be a decisive step towards bringing the team back to its previous high level of play that was temporarily interrupted by last season's liasco.

"As I told the team, we can't walk until we can crawl, and we can't sprint until we can walk." Ashley said. "I'm counting on the seniors to bring us back to repectability.

"We are definitely ready to open up. I expect us to make mistakes. I don't think that you can expect us to play perfectly."

"We kept up the intensity after the [one-meter] diving." Garretl said. "This w.is a complete team effort. The whole team was interne, sup- ported each other, and everyone swam out of their minds."

Two more school records fell, as Sarah Ralston eclipsed the previous mark in the 100-meter freestyle by a full second, and the 200-meter medley relay team of Marianne Markcy, Pam I reilich, Querubin and Ralston also established a new record.

lost in the eight races that she has swam this year, l-reilich and Joni Young were victoious three times, and Querubin. Markey and Sharon Doyle each won two events.

But the spotlight must go to the team as a whole for finally defeating its New Jersey rival.

"This feels incredible." Garretl

said. "Everyone was really nervous before the meet. We wanted to beat this team. And we did."

The coaches were also obviously . happy with the win.

"It feels good to beat [Princeton]," Assistant Coach Paul Gilbert said. "It's good to have the monkey off our back."

yourself. You have to rely on others. "[The awards] are nice for the fact

that we are close-knit."

Defensively, Penn had two players named to the first team — tackle A.J. Scbastianelli and linebacker Jeff Fort na. The two seniors helped to anchor the Quaker defense which was ihe best in the league, despite being a question mark at the beginning of the season.

Scbastianelli had more going for him on the football field than jusi an interesting haircut. A special-teams player for two years, he blossomed in- to a dominating lineman, leading Penn in quarterback sacks with seven, and was second in tackles with 85.

Fortna was a two-year starter at outside linebacker for the Quakers.

He totalled 54 tackles, and he was tied for second in sacks (seven) and in- terceptioni (two).

Besides Ernst on offense. Penn placed five defensive players on the second team: nose guard Dexter Dcsir

who missed the final three-and-a- half games with an injury, safety lames 1 angmeyer, linebacker Brad Hippensteil, tackle Mike I.ista and cornerback Donald Wilson.

Ernsl speaks for all of the winners. "It is a great feeling of satisfac-

tion," he said. "There is a driving force deep down, a desire to prove it to others — people here, people at home and myself. I'm fortunate enough to have people |around the Ivy 1 eague] think about me."

\IKI thai may be the greatest award of all.

jackets are possibly the best team which Penn has played since losing to Memphis State, 67-55, in the first round of the NCAAs in 1985.

"If we beat Georgia Tech, we'll get lots of attention," Lefkowitzsaid. "It will be part of re-establishing the Penn tradition, but it will be no more important — in fact it will be less im- portant — than our Ivy League games.

"But I have the same type of quiet confidence as I did three years ago

against Memphis Stale." •

The game against Penn will not be Cieorgia Tech's first of the season. The Yellowjackets play Stanford in the first round of the Richmond fidelity Classic Friday night. And should they beat Stanford, the Yellowjackets will face the winner of Friday's other first-round game bet- ween Richmond and Rice on Saturday.

• WXPN-FM, 88.9 will broadcast the

game live from Atlanta.

Canseco named AL's top rookie OAKLAND. Calif. (AIM

Oakland As outfielder Jose CUMHO,

whose long, high-arcing homers brought predictions he will somedav challenge the records of baseball's greatest sluggers, was named ytMei

day the American league Rookie of the Year.

The powerfully built, 22-ycar-old. who says he was "just scratching the surface" of his talent after hitting 33 homers and driving in 117 runs, edged California Angels first baseman Wal ly Joyner for the honor.

Canseco received 16 of 28 first- place soles and 110 points to 12 first place sotes and <J8 points for Joyna Two writers from each of the league's 14 cities participated in the selection for the Baseball Writers Association of America.

Canseco said he thought he might win but was concerned about Joyner's popularity.

"My statistics overshadowed Walls Joyner's, especially in the home run category, but he was popular with the writers and his team won the pennant,

which gave him an advantage." Canseco said.

Toronto Blue lays rdievef Mark fcichhorn finished third with 23 points on a 5-3-1 basis, while outfielder < orv Snyder of the ( lev eland Indians total

ed 16. I)ann> I artabull of the Seattle Mariners wound up with four points, and Ruben Sierra ol the leui Rangers got one.

Canseco, 6-3, built himself up to a solid 210 pounds last winter with a

weight-lifting program and began making an impression in spring train- ing. His batting practice show

brought fans out early around the league, and the homers continued most ol the season, except lor one long, frustrating slump.

"( anseco's the one man who ma\ break Roger Mans' record (61 homers in a season)," said Milwaukee Manager George Bambcrgcr.

Boston pitcher Dennis "Oil C an" Boyd had this 10 M] alter Canseco knocked his best screwball for a homer

"He will be legendary

i oi the moment, ( snstoo is proud of ins accomplishment! but believes

he is far from reaching his potential He said he didn't set an> goals this

season other than learning about the pitchers in the league, but he has several goals for next year.

"I'd like to hit over 40 home runs, drive in over 130 runs and hit about .280." he said. "I also want to im- prove my defense. I made quite a few errors this year As a second year player. I should be able to improve on everything."

Though he hit just 240, the 22-year-old ( anseco lied lor fourth in the league in home runs and second in RBI to Cleveland*! Joe Carter, who had 121

Joyntf started strong and had 16 homers by the end of May. He wound up batting .290 with 22 homers and led California with 100 RBI.

Eichhorn established a Toronto rookie record with 14 victories. The righthander was 14-6 with 10 saves and a mlniscule 1.72 earned run average.

Snyder, who plaved in 103 games for the Indians, hit 24 homers with 69 RBI and batted .272. Sierra batted .264 with 16 homers and <5 RBI. Tar- labull had 25 homers and 96 RBI while batting .270.

Martin suspended for two games by Rozelle

NfcW YORK (AIM - Cireen Bay defensive lineman Charles Martin. who was ejected from Sunday's tame for roughing Chicago quarterback Jim McMahon. was suspended vestei day for two games, the most severe

penalty handed down for an on-the- lield incident in Commissioner Pete Ro/elle's 26 years

McMahon will undergo ar-

throscopic surgery Dec. 12 and will be lost for the remainder of the season,

Dr. Frank Jobe said yesterday. McMahon had flown to Los Angeles to have the shoulder examined after team doctors said the quarterback had aggravated a rotator cuff tear.

The Packers announced Martin will appeal the suspension, meaning the third-year lineman will be able to play tomorrow against the Detroit Lions.

Martin was penalized for roughing McMahon in the Bears' 12-10 victors and was ejected by referee Jerry Markbreit, meaning the incident would be reviewed by Ro/elle's office

Since Martin appealed the suspen sion for the second-quarter incident, Rozelle will hold a hearing next week

Ro/.elle issued a statement yester- day on the incident.

"Following a review of videotapes,

of the Cireen Bay Packers-Chicago Bears game, I today notified defensive lineman Charles Martin of the Packers that he is being suspended without pay for two games as a result of his flagrant roughing of quarter- back Jim McMahon of the Bears dur ing the Packers-Bears game on Nov.

23, 1986 at Soldier Field.

"Specifically, the review revealed that Martin applied a bear hug on McMahon. lilted him off the ground, and slammed him down on Ins right shoulder. I'll is action occurred alter McMahon had thrown an interception

and after the intercepting Green Baj player clear!) was down to end the play. Martin then came up behind McMahon. who was in an unguarded posture, and administered the lift and slam.

"Martin's act drew an Immediate unnecessaiv roughness penalt) and disqualification by referee Jerry Markbreit.

"The Packers have informed me Martin will appeal nv decision Iheielore, I will conduct a healing early next week Meanwhile. Martin is eligible to play in the Packers' nest

■ameagainsi Detroit on rhanksgiving Day."

Martin defended his actions on Sunday.

"I did the wrong thing, true enough, and they took me out ol the game for it." Martin said. "I think I got a little loo rough.

"I just took him down," Martin said. "I wasn't thinking ol shoulder injurs or knee injury or anything."

Leonard fight may be final one for Hagler

BETHLSDA. Md (AP) — Marvelous Marvin Hagler said vestei

day that his upcoming bout with Sugar Rav Leonard "could be" his final fight, but he won't leave the ring unless he is the reigning middleweight champion of the world.

l eonard, ■peaking at a news con ference on the sivth anniversary ol his victors iiver Roberto Dur.in. said he

and Haglei have "both decided to call it quits" alter the April 6 fight in I as Vegas

"It could be." said Hagler. when asked it he did indeed plan to step down from the ring alter battling Leonard for the WBC middleweight crown. "If this is my last fight. I'll be sure to make it my best ... but when I do leave, it will be as middleweight champion of the world "

I eonard and Hagler will be visiting about a do/en cities in the next month

plugging what promotor Bob Arum called, "the biggest single-day spor- ting event in history " Both fighters traded verbal punches at this stop in their cross country tour, but neither said anything that could be considered a spinning blow.

"After all this is all over, that's when we'll put on our game faces," vowed Haglei.

Leonard. 30. said he would beat Hagler by "hugging the man like my wife. I'll siav close, then outmaneuvcr him and capitalize on his mistakes."

lo which Hagler said. "Ray thinks he can defeat me. I kind of like that. I hope his courage stays the same, so I can be sure he shows up."

Hagler said he would "hit Leonard all over" rather than concentrate on punching the challenger in the left eye in which he suffered a detached retina a few years back.

Hagler, 62-2-2. has not lost a fight in nearly II years, but he hasn't been in the ring since he knocked out John Mugabi in March.

Leonard, of course, has had only one fight since Nov. 9. 1982.

By DAN HdlllKMW Fifth straight Ivy League title. Unblemished season record. Non-league wins over Bucknell, Lafayette and Navy. Number-seven ranking in the nation in Division I-AA. In the wake of its 7-0 Ivy League (10-0 Overall) season,

(he Penn football team is finding out that to the victors, the spoils do go.

In 1986, it is not only on the football field where the Quakers have dominated as several Penn players were fur- ther recognized by being named to the all-Ivy football teams.

Seven Quakers — five on offense, and two on defense — were selected to the first team, in voting conducted among the eight Ivy head coaches. Six more players — five on defense — were named to the second team. All in all, 18 Penn players appeared on the first or second teams or received honorable mention.

Leading the way, like it has for the duration of the season, was Penn's tailback tandem of senior Rich Com- i/io and junior Chris Flynn. Both Comizio and Flynn were named to the first team, along with Cornell fullback Jeff Johnson.

"The post-season awards are a nice touch," Comizio said: "I feel really good about (the award)."

For Comizio, the award is the icing on a career which saw him set new Penn records in rushing for a season (1104), and a career (2479). He led the Quakers in rushing in each of his three varsity seasons, and had seven 100-plus yard rushing games this year, including four in his final four collegiate games.

"I'm happy to see that we both made it," Comizio said. "1 think it was real good."

Flynn also had a stellar season for Penn. He, too, sur- passed the Quakers' single-season rushing mark with 917 yards. He led Penn with 12 touchdowns, and was the team's third-leading receiver. A threat whenever he touch- ed the ball, Flynn was the Quakers' primary kickoff and punt returner, and he set the single-season mark for all- purpose running with 1620 yards.

But the accolades didn't end with the two tailbacks, as three other offensive starters were awarded first-team honors. Center Steve Buonato, tight end Brent Novoselsky and right tackle Marty Peterson rounded out the contingent.

"It hasn't sunk in yet," Novoselsky said. "It's one of the goals that every player sets for himself. I'm stunned."

Novoselsky was Penn's leading receiver, snaring 18 passes for 337 yards (18.7 average) and six touchdowns — one short of the Quakers' season record.

"I credit (Tight Ends) Coach [Harry) Hiestand for working us hard through training camp," Novoselsky said. "I've been catching the ball since I was three years old, while blocking is a lost art among tight ends. I really improved in my blocking."

Buonato and Peterson should also know a thing or two about blocking. In a year where the tailbacks received the bulk of the spotlight, it was the line that helped make the backs look good.

"Everybody has to do their job on offense for the play to go right," said left tackle Scott Ernst, who garnered second-team honors. "There's not a lot that you can do by

W. Basketball opens season against Textile

By WAYNE SAI.IT The Palestra is ready. The freshly painted baby blue walls

and rafters are poised to reverberate with the sounds of noisy spectators that have been noticeably absent in this historic gymnasium since lasl February.

The fans are ready. As the autumn cool turns into

winter chill, the affections of the thousands of Penn sports enthusiasts quickly begin to focus on a different sport — one with a rhythm all its own.

The players are more than ready. Both the 1986-87 Penn women's

basketball season and the new Palestra open this weekend with the Palestra Tourney. Penn goes up aginst Philadelphia Textile at I p.m. on Saturday, with Vermont playing Bucknell at 3 p.m.. The finals of this first-ever Thanksgiving tournament will take place on Sunday afternoon.

The Quakers (4-21 last season, tied for sixth in the Ivy League) believe the 1985 1986 season WU a fluke, and Penn is anxious to get started with what can only be an improvement on last year's forgettable disaster.

"Our goal is to win the next game," Penn head coach Lois Ashley said. "We want to get our respect back, and we are definitely capable of

winning. "We have a lot of work to do,"

Ashley added, "but if you look into the eyes of the players they don't look like a 4-21 team."

The Quakers' first opponent will be Philadelphia Textile. Although the Rams are the only Division II team on Penn's 27-game schedule. Textile's appearance in the NCAA Division II Final Foui last season should give (he eager Quakers reason to expect strong competition from their crosstown I IV.lls.

"ITextile) should be pretty strong," Ashley said. "You obviously make a better recruiting year after you make the Final Four."

However, one very large part of the Division II East Region champions' offense will be missing this season — guard Vincene Morris. The loss of the 2000-plus points scorer will leave a very large gap in the Textile backcourt. The Rams as a whole will be fairly inexperienced this season because only one senior is returning.

"|The loss of Morris) will affect Textile," Ashley said. "Who they got to replace her and the other seniors will play a big part in how they do this season."

W. Swimming wins over Tigers, 84-56

By JAY SKLIBLR The Penn women's swimming team doesn't seem (o really

care who it swims against in a dual meet. On Saturday, Cor- nell came to Sheerr Pool and was soundly defeated by the Quakers, 84-56. Last night the Princeton Tigers played the role of the 'bad guys', and the result was the same.

Exactly the same. In a great show of teamwork buoyed by terrific individual

performances, the Quakers swam over the Tigers by the same 84-56 score. The win marked the first time ever that Penn emerged victorious over Princeton in a dual meet.

"This is a great, great feeling," co-captain Teri Querubin said. "It's really exciting to finally beat Princeton."

Penn looked extremely good, winning 12 out of the 14 swimming events, as it did against Cornell. The Quakers look- ed especially impressive after the one-meter diving competi- tion, winning five consecutive races to extend a precarious 40-30 lead into a dominant 70-45 one.

Co-captain Julie Garrett had said that the Quakers must be (Continued on page 8)

M. Swimming falls, 83-30

By BARRY DUBROW Princeton's men's swimmers arriv-

ed at Sheerr Pool yesterday afternoon to put an upstart Penn back in its place. The Quakers (1-1) had swim- mers' high after their convincing vic- tory over Cornell last weekend. The timing would have been perfect to deal Penn a serious emotional setback.

The Tigers didn't have to bother. Penn knew what it was up against. It's one thing to embarrass a

mediocre Big Red team. It's another to beat Princeton (1-0), which placed 17th in last year's National Collegiate Athletic Association Championships and appears to be just as strong this year.

The Quakers were prepared to lose big.

"You expect a letdown after getting psyched up for a big meet," senior Jim McCloskey said. "And Cornell was our big meet. You don't expect to be able to get back to that level of in- tensity in only three days, especially |against| them."

So there was no serious pain when they did get routed, 83-30. Instead, Penn pointed to the positives.

The obvious was McCloskey. For the second straight meet McCloskey

M. Basketball opens in Atlanta Quakers play highly-ranked Georgia Tech

By THOMAS HILL Seemingly the Penn basketball team could have

had better early-season fortune. The Quakers' 1986-87 schedule includes five

teams ranked among the nation's top-40 in pre- season polls, Notre Dame, Villanova, Temple, Alabama and Georgia Tech.

Having to face Georgia Tech in its season-opener Monday (7:30 p.m., at the Alexander Field House, Atlanta. Ga.) might be asking a little much from Penn. Yet if you listen to Penn head coach Tom Schneider, he'll tell you that this is just another non-league game.

"It's one game." he said. "It would be nice if we could play well against a team of this caliber, but we can't sit back."

Still, isn't it possible that the Quakers will be aw- ed by a the Yellowjackets, who finished second in the Atlantic Coast Conference last season with an 11-3 record.

"This team has played in far too many Big Five games, they've played in the Far West Classic (1984) and the NCAAs (1985)," Schneider said. "I don't think they'll be awed."

Conversely Georgia Tech, which bowed out of last spring's National Collegiate Athletic Associa- tion Tournament prematurely with a quarterfinal loss to Louisiana State University, has learned not to underestimate an opponent. Therefore, the Yellowjackets are not taking Penn too lightly.

"Last year, we let the media get to us with all the attention," said 6-8 forward Tom Hammonds, last season's ACC Rookie of the Year. "This year, we're just blowing it off. We can't let the media get to us. That was our downfall last year."

The Quakers will, however, be feeling somewhat diminutive when they step onto the court Monday. Senior guard Bruce Dalrymple. whom Georgia Tech head coach Bobby Cremins has called "the best re- bounding wing guard I've ever seen," is. at 6-4, the smallest of the Yellowjackets. He will be joined in

the starting lineup by 6-5 point guard Craig Neal, 6-6 junior forward Duane Ferrell, the 6-8 Ham- monds and 7-1 center Antoine Ford.

"I hope our size will really take over, but we can't expect anything," Hammonds said. "If we expect anything, then we'll play soft. We can't be lackadaisical, no matter what kind of a size advan- tage we have."

Penn's lone lamppost will be 6-8 senior center Bruce Lefkowitz. The next tallest Quaker in the starting lineup will be 6-6 sophomore forward John Stovall.

"The biggest thing is to block out Tommy Ham- monds," Lefkowitz said. "He is as fine an inside player as there is. He likes to crash in. The only way to prevent that is to block him out and keep him out of the lane."

"I'm actually looking forward to it," Lefkowitz said. "I want to make a good showing. We had a good [intra-squad] scrimmage [Monday) night, as good a practice as at any time since I've been here. Their height advantage can present problems, but they don't have our quickness."

Hammonds, however, disputes the notion that the Yellowjackets lack speed.

"We've got a good inside and outside game," Hammonds said. "We're a lot quicker than last year with Neal at the point."

Still, Georgia Tech has learned from its mistakes about not taking opponents seriously enough. The Yelowjackets will try to forget that they were 27-7 last season while the Quakers were 15-11.

"We're not going to take Penn for granted," Hammonds said. "It happened to us a few times last year, like the [University of North Carolina at Charlotte) game. We took them lightly, and it came down to the wire.

"This year, if we really play hard and come together, we can make it to the Final Four."

Penn has much more moderate goals in mind. "The whole month of December is to prepare us

for the league," senior co-captain Chris Elzey said. "Our whole goal is to win the league and go to the NCAAs. It's just another game."

Nonetheless, a win over Georgia Tech could do a lot for the Quakers simply because the Yellow
