Ferraro discusses cleaning toxic dumps

By KRISTEN HUFF

Democrat[c Vice Presidential can-didate Gcraldine Ferraro spoke yester-day with Ruber Heights residents liv-ing near the Powell Road Landfill about the effects of toxic substances.

The Reagan administration has a record of non-achievement in cleaning up toxic dumps, Ferraro said.

Ferraro pointed out the Safe Drink-ing Water Act of 1984. an act which would require public water systems to monitor chemicals in water and notify the public of danger, was killed in the U.S. Senate. The only federal money required in this act would have been

Residents claim dump endangering water By KBISIEN HUFF

Huber Heights residents present ai yesterday's meeting with Democratic Vice-Presidential Candidate Gcraldine Ferraro were vocal in criticizing the Powell Road waste landfill she visited.

According to State Senator Thomas Talbot, the dump is endangering the ci-ty of Dayton's water supply.

"Dusty Hall of the Sierra Club said there are actually 800 toxic dump threats in Ohio; there are 25 sites listed in Montgomery County alone.

"They worked two days cleaning it up," said Susie Kunz, a resident liv ing adjacent to the landfill.

"When it rains, it washes down in-to the leaching bed," Kunz said. "If you walk across the fence right there, you just start sinking."

Laura Kaffenbarger, another near-by resident,said a very strong odor entered her living room four years ago. Upon investigation she was told it was caused by silage from a local farmer's silo. She discovered recently it was ac-tually caused by a chlorine gas leak.

Kaffenbarger's daughter was in the hospital seven times last >ear with asthma and pneumonia. Kaffenbarger believes the girl's condition was caus-ed by the dump.

Former O.S.U. coach supports Reagan By KRISTEN HUFF

Deputy Secretary of Defense Clarence J. (Bud) Brown and former Ohio State football coach Woody Hayes were among the speakers at the Reagan-Bush rally held yesterday in the Republican's downtown Dayton headquarters.

Brown said, "Mondalc is turning in-creasingly nasty in his attacks on Presi-dent Reagan and Vice-Prescient Bush because he doesn't know how to ad-dress the economic improvemen, hat has occured under Reagan. "

"Ms. Ferraro never voted for any farm programs that would help Ohio farmers," Brown said.

Ferraro and Mondale have come out strongly for decreasing military funding."

Brown indicated that Mondale and Ferraro intend to raise taxes by $85 billion. He stated that Ohio's lagging behind the rest of the country because of Governor Richard Celeste's tax increase.

"If you like what those taxes did to Ohio, you'll love Fritz Mondale," Brown said.

Brown also encouraged the

Republicans to elect a Republican Congress to support Reagan's programs.

Hayes received the most applause of See page two

"I 've lived here 33 years," said an unidentified citizen, "and I've had two wells drilled since February," at a cost of $10,000.

"Before the dust is off this crowd, I want you to know they're open and dumping as of yesterday," she continued.

"They haul at nieht and some are in tandem, ' she said. "The sign that says permanently closed was just put up."

"I took my two bags of garbage in there one night: 1 paid my $15 and the man told me to turn right Well, I had a bii> camera on the seat beside me and 1 turned left." "I got pictures," she said.

Mark Rendler. a former resident of Powell Road who moved into town when his wife became pregnant, said, "When we bought our house they told us it (the dump) would be cleaned up within the year. They were gonna cover it up and make it into a golf course."

for stales to develop ground water pro-tection plans, she said.

"Our coming here is not a put-dow n of Huber Heights," she said. "There are thousands of Huber Heights across the country suffering from the same frustrations," Ferraro said.

The dump, covered with straw with a loan police officer standing on top, served as the back drop for Ferraro's comments.

"We're the government and we have to determine what the problems are," Ferraro said to the homeowners present.

"This election is not for the next four years...it's into the next decade and the next century," Ferraro said. "We ve got to start making long-term decisions in government."

Notable figures present at today's meeting were Gloria Steinem, noted feminist; Dayton City Commissioner Mark Henry; Sarah Harris, WSU trustee; and County Commission can-didate Paul Bogan. head of Mondale's campaign for southern Ohio; and Ric Came, legislative aide from U.S. Con-gressman Tony Hall's office.

October 3, 1967: '.egents Propose Quarter System

The Ohio Board of Regents has pro-posed a change in the academic calen-dar from our present trimester system to the quarter system. Only three state schools are not on the quarter system: Miami, WSU and Sinclair.

Under the trimester system, the academic year consists of two terms, each 15 weeks. The quarter system is divided into three terms of 12 weeks each, extending in-class time over a period of 36 weeks as compared to the present 30 weeks.

A survey conducted last year by Dr. Schaeffc , chairman of the Academic Council's Curriculum Committee, found the faculty to have "mixed feel-ings" about the issue, with the majori-ty "not against changing over." This attitude of the faculty along with "financial incentives" offered by the Board of Regents makes the adoption

the speakers present. Hayes believ es there cannot be com-

placency in the campaign. "Anybody who congratulates you, you kick 'em in the shins. When you start believing the polls, you're in trouble."

Actor Hugh O'Brien, best-known for his portrayal of Wyatt Earp, said in Toledo earlier yesterday, " A reporter asked me what an actor is do-ing in politics. I'm not an actor," O'Brien said, "and I've got 46 pictures to prove i t ."

O'Brien warned of apathy setting in among the voters because polls in-dicate Reagan is so far ahead.

"Ohio's a key state," O'Brien said, "and you must go to the polls."

Carol Ball, Ohio co-chair for Women for Reagan-Bush, said the "economic recovery has opened the door of equality to women."

Dorothy Harbach, representative ot the National Women's Coalition for Reagan, said Reagan has done tremen-dous things for women."

Five out of every six new businesses in 1983 were started by women, Har-bach said.

"Mondale and the Democrats are a rhetoric-oriented party," Harbach said. "Reagan and the Republicans are a result-oriented party."

Needed: one Mascot! WSU is rapid-ly becoming a fully organized univer-sity with colors, seal, newspaper, year-book, and alumni. But what is lack-ing? A Mascot.

Sigma Tau Epsilon will be taking

suggestions Monday, October 6 through Friday, October 10 at its booth across from the Bursar's Office.

Voting will be held the following week, October 13-18, with ballots available at the booth.

The originator of the chosen mascot will have the honor of knowing that his name will be forever recorded in the Archives of WSU.

Brown U. votes on 'suicide pill' Undergraduates at Brown Universi-

ty will decide next week if they want the Providence, Rhode Island school to store suicide pills that students could take in the event of a nuclear war.

Approximately 700 students signed petitions requesting that a non-binding referendum on the project of stockpil-ing cyanide pills be placed on the Oct. 10-11 student election ballot.

The referendum issue states: "We, the undergraduate students of Brown University, request that (Student) Health Services stockpile suicide pills for optional student use exclusively in the event of a nuclear war."

Dr. Sumner Hoffman, Director of Student Health Services, called the idea "ridiculous."

According to an Associated Press

report, Hoffman said, "our mission is to sustain life, to improve the quality of life, and to treat illness, not destroy life."

Hoffman also said that his profes-sional ethics would prevent him from administering the plan and that such a decision would have to come from the corporation that operates the university.

Jason Sal/man, a junior from Denver who helped organize the peti-tion drive, was quoted in the AP arti-cle as saying, "suicide is a taboo issue on any college campus. AH [the referendum] does is offer us a choice, a very American way to handle moral problems. The pill would be complete-ly optional."

Nationwide SA T scores show upswing NEW YORK, NY (CPS)-After slip-ping slightly last year, students' scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) show modest increases this year, ac-cording to the College Board, which runs the nationwide SAT program.

However, educators' happiness about the improved test scores was quickly dampened by U.S. Secretary of Education Terrel Bell, who credited

By BARBARA ASTOR BURNETTE Associate Writer

Education shows no age discrimina-tion; it doesn V reserve itself for just the young. College is one form of learn-ing for people of all ages; education is an equal opportunity employer.

When a neighbor told Gloria Zitsman, 62, that she could go to col-lege for free, the Springfield resident enrolled as a part-time student at WSU. Since she was over 60 and an Ohio resident, her college tuition was waived except for books and lab fees.

"I have very good vibes about WSU," remarks Zitsman, who had only briefly considered going to another school. She feels that, in spite of her college tuition being waived, that she was treated no differently than other fee-paying students. "The ad-ministration was very helpful," she said.

Until recently, the native Virginian and her husband owned and operated a clothing store in Fairborn. When the store closed, Zitsman began to pursue a less time-demanding job in the retail business. French and Drawing, two classes she's since audited, have helped her to constructively pass the time in between jobs.

President Reagan's education policies for the good news.

In a news conference called in Washington, D.C. at the same time the College Board was releasing the scores officially in New York, Bell told reporters "the gain in SAT scores reflects the concern for excellence in schools that is sweeping the nation," and added that he was glad the recom-

"I don't know if I want the pressure of exams, but yet I want to know that 1 can compete (with other students)," she explains.

Zitsman has a love of travel. She has been to England, Scotland, France, and Italy, and would rather sight-see han soak up sunrays.

Perhaps that's why she attracted to the W.S.U. campus from the outset. Despite the age difference of students on campus, she feels comfortable.

"I feel this is for anybody," says Zitsman.

) ZITSMAN

mendations made by a presidential commission on excellence "are being followed."

Bell went on to imply that Reagan's call for excellence in the nation's schools and his support for more stringent disciplinary policies have helped SAT scores rise over the last four years.

College Board and other education officials immediately complained that Bell's press conference was "a breach etiquette" and "political," and stress-ed that better teachers and schools-not presidential announcements—helped improve SAT scores.

Nationwide scores on the math por-tion of the SAT increased three points this year, for an average score of 471. the College Board reports.

Although scores remain far below the 1963 record highs of 502 for math and 478 for verbal, educators see them as hints that the long decline in SAT scores finally has been reversed.

Bell's claim that Reagan's policies are responsible for the score increase is "simply impossible," College Board

spokesman Fred Moreno said. Because the SAT tests a wide array

of aptitudes developed over a student lifetime, there is virtually no way to improve scores in a year's time, he added.

This year's minor increases probably are due to a combination of such thing- as accelerated curricula in elementary and junior high schools better teachers and teaching methods and a classroom computer invasion College Board officials point out.

Moreover, "the increase in mati scores is largely attributable to (thf i •-proved performances of) womet. " College Board President George . .a I-ford said, while the increase in > rl" tl scores was largely among ma! s.

Math scores for female stud .nts in-creased four points this year, i p Irom 445 last year, Moreno >.ii I. Hie average score for male s uuent> in-creased only two point-.

In contrast, the ave.ag. verbal score for females held stead/ at 420. while the average score for males went up three points.

It's admirable that the United States has finally decided to accept responsibility for the children of U.S. servicemen left behind in Vietnam, but it's not enough.

Every year this country sends more and more military personnel overseas throughout the world. Result: half American children scattered from Ger-many to Thailand to England to God-knows-where.

What about them? This country hasn't e.en yet admitted soldiers came in contact with Korean women during that country's conflict. The current military garrisons are still doing their part to in-crease South Korea's population, and both U.S. and Korean government officials deny the existance of such offspring.

Other countries, such as the United Kingdom, have taken full responsibility for the actions of its troops for years, where ever they were stationed. This included caring for and looking after the children of their fighting men. If the U.S. is going to "accept" half-Vietnamese children, why can't they do the same for the others? Or does a country have to hold our missing loved ones hostage before we'll face up to our humane responsibility?

Suicide pill worse than nuclear bomb By DREW DIXON Associate Editor

Brown University in Providence, R.I. will vote next week on whether or not to stockpile "suicide pills" which students can take in the event of a nuclear war.

Now that's pretty heavy. As it is, college students have enough to worry about, let alone the possibility of killing themselves when "the bomb" hits.

Two students at Brown were responsible for the referendum, which will be on the student election ballot next week. What is wrong with these students?

To present this to the students is adding a lot of unneeded pressure. The need for nuclear awareness is a genuine concern, but this is taking it a little too far.

For one thing, if there was a nuclear war. how would they (Brown University Student Health Ser-vices, where the cyanide death pills would be stored) distribute the pills in an organized fashion? The students wanting the pills would want to die then, as soon as they found out a nuclear strike was tak-ing place.

Everyone would rush for the pills and it would probably become chaos. I mean, they are going to die anyway, so why would anyone act in an order-ly manner?

Another thing: what if there was (speaking

hypotheiically) ;i false alarm? Say it was announc-ed that a nuclear strike was in progress, but the strike hit only a certain portion of the country and nor Brown University. A lot of people will want to kill themselves lor nothing. It would he similar to the Jonestown Massacre.

There is one danger that exists that has nothing to do with nuclear war, though. The pills are sup-posed to be locked away. But what would prevent a discouraged student from gaining access to the pills and committing suicide because he or she is in despair from flunking classes?

I don't know how badly Brown University would be affected if a nuclear war hit, but I do know Wright State would he totally wiped off the face of the earth since we'resitting right next to Wright Patterson.

My point is, why not witness it? Nuclear war is what the human race has feared most in the last four decades. We all would die anyway and I think I would just like to see the bomb hit. I'm sure there would be a moment or two of pain, but it would be over with shortly. I wouldn't mind seeing the mo-ment in history that would change all mankind forever. It's not something I want to happen, and I hope it never does. But if it did...

If what I've written sounds morbid or if I've of-fended anyone, pardon me. But this "death pill" issue is extremely morbid and very offensive to mc.

Night owls begin campaigning for new meal By AUNA-0 KOOM

Assistant Editor

Is there life after midnight during the week? Most people don't think so, but s.s a night owl extraor-dinaire, I think I can help allev; 'e the post mid night blues.

TV, for the most part, is literally out. By 1:30 in the morning, only Channel 7 is still broadcasting. They do not go off the air!

Instead of taking that option, Channel 7 takes the social responsibility of presenting Night Watch. This is a mostly uninteresting show with a mostly uninteresting host. Next time you're awake, look closely at Charlie Rose's face (he's the host). Doesn't it look like he's sitting on something un-comfortable or is it just another undocumented case of constipation?

However, it is possible to find worthwhile TV after midnight-no matter how brief. In fact, the supply lasts exactly one hour each night. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights can be Fill-ed by the undisputed king of lafe night, David Letterman.

On Tuesdays put David l.ettcrman aside and watch Columbo on Channel 7. People in trench coats are very hard to find on TV or anywhere else these days, so this is a rare treat.

Other late night activities include any number of games. Some can be ieft to the imagination. These are the games that mother always warned you about (like Tr-ple Yahtze or Parcheesi). Othe- games should just be used lor jhe good clean fun >; keeping your minds sharp for y o u r morning, classes.

What to play' How about "Risk" or "Trivial Pursuit?" Card games like Go Fish are really fan-tastic, not only to kill time but to exhibit a new level of maturitv. Don't forget to learn several versions of each game so you can combat any traces of boredom.

Where to go? The ultimate late night place to be seen is Young's Jersey Dairy in Yellow Springs, Ohio. The day old doughnuts are 10' each'after midnight, and that reads bargain for anyone on a college budget.

The real key to being up late at night is not to think about sleep. Try lo think of .other things, like the mating habits of wild boars, or the average speed of a gopher running from the law. Things like this are guaranteed to keep you and your friends up for a very long time.

One of the most popular topics in any late night conversation is food. One reason is that there is no designated meal between dinner and breakfast, and that is a very long time. Night owls are currently-campaigning for a new meal. Something along the lines of hreannereh. (Actually, the official name has yet to be decided, but breannerch is a good possibility).

A final word about staying up late. People will think you are invincible if you go to bed at six in the morning and wake up at nine to go to all your classes. Unfortunately, your body will know otherwise.

To keep up the reputation of being a sleepless be-ing, simply take plenty of naps, drink lots of caf-feine and quote David Letterman extensively.

That's how a true night owl survives.

3. Speaking of Allyn Hall, we think the name should be changed to Allyn Town. Not only is there a song about Allyn Town, but it would just be nice to call one of the buildings on campus "town" instead of hall, or center. •

We interrupt this program commercials stink By Daniel Webb

I hale commercials. I'm glad I said lhat. There is nothing more horrid to me than turning on the old boob-tube and getting swamped with four minutes of commercials and only three minutes of my program.

It's not just the amount of commer-cials on TV that bothers me; it's also

the content. For example... Husband walks into kitchen holding

plate: "Gee honey, this fish tastes like fish!" Wife, (with stupid smile on her face): "That 's right, dear; that's because it's

really fish!" See what I mean? I don't know the

writers of commercials, but their salary

of bananas is too high. Can you imagine two capable adults

actually talking to each other as they do in commercials? "My, aren't your hands soft?" "Yes, that's because I use Dawnl" Then she turns to the camera, holding up the box with a grin

Do people really act this way, or is it just me? Have I been deaf all these years not to notice that people speak this way to one another?

My sister does the dishes, and she's never said anything about how soft her hands were from using Dawn.

Personally, I think the coffee com-mercials are the worst. Like the one where they switch the fine coffee nor-mally served at a fancy restaraunt with Folger's crystals.

Remember the Kool A id commercial with all the cute little children flying kites while running down the beach? They're giggling and having a good time, (and getting paid for it) while we're listening to: "Kids are kids, kids are kids, it's trite, " as if they could be anything else.

Also, why is it that commercials either have the intelligence of a basic kitchen appliance, or the amiability of a Tasmanian devil? I've spent lots of time with children, and while I have noticed that while a lot are smart-mouthed (but never as bad as the ones on commercials), they're far from stupid.

The only commercial I'll give credit for being somewhat intelligent when it comes to conversation is the one in which the little boy, his father, and their dog are walking down the beach. The little boy asks, "Daddy, is Barkey going to live forever?" and the father answers, "Barkey can't live forever, son, but he'll be around for a long time."

That's the end of the commercial's intelligence, but then it's never a good idea to tell an eight-year-old. "Nope, son, he's going to croak, and pretty soon, too. He's getting old and could also get hit by a car tomorrow; you never know."
