The value of the papers was $360, plus at least $1,500 in lost advertising revenue. The July 23rd issue of The College Times had only been on the racks for one day when an unknown party or person removed every copy from every building on campus. At 9 a.m. Friday, some students noticed that they couldn't find any newspapers in their accustomed places. On Sunday it was discovered by John Bernhard, editor in chief of The College Times, and Allen Hill, the opinion editor, that all copies of the newspaper were gone. There has been some speculation concerning who the guilty party might be.

Although these ill feelings may have ignited suspicion by members of the newspaper staff, there was by no means significant enough evidence to accuse a particular party with the crime. It should be noted that officials in the student center have been eager to resolve the situation in as timely a manner as possible, especially in light of inflammatory statements allegedly made by Bernhard in Friday's edition of The Daily Herald. According to the article written by Don Meyer, Bernhard was reported as accusing Tom Hover, dean of student life, Bob Rasmussen, director of student programs, and Steve Beck, student body president for the theft of the newspapers. According to Bernhard, The Daily Herald reporter had promised that no names would be used in his article and the information given to the reporter was purely opinion on Bernhard's part. "I told the reporter exactly what had happened, and that involved using their names in an interview setting," Bernhard said.

Representatives from as far away as South Carolina and Ontario attended the show, as well as locals like employees from Pep Boys and students and instructors from the UVSC's automotive depatment. Seminars, field trips and a trade show were included in the conference. Fred Gilmore, who represented Penn State University's Technical College, said that he and fellow attendees from Penn State would be taking an excursion to Bryce Canyon during their stay in Utah.

In related news, at least one employee on campus has confessed to taking the newspapers to paint his duplex. Consequently, students and staff at UVSC were without a newspaper for several days. If the 1 ,750 missing copies of the eight-page newspaper were spread out one layer thick, it would cover approximately 350,000 square feet - larger than the combined space of the Student Center and the Business Building.

By Alan Fram of the Associated Press WASHINGTON-Cutting the deficit is supposed to involve pain and sacrifice. Lots of it, in fact. But unless you are a health care provider, smoker or airline passenger, chances are you will be helped more than hurt by this year'sbudget-balancing effort by President Clinton and Congress. For now, at least. Clinton plans to sign the spending and tax measures Tuesday after lawmakers shipped the two bills to him last week by lopsided margins. As they did, what was striking - besides the unusual bipartisanship - was how each side could boast about what they were giving voters, not taking from them. This meant lots of talk by Republicans about cutting taxes for families, property owners and investors and by Democrats about boosting spending for children's health care, education and welfare all amid an effort to balance the budget by 2002. And this wasn't just politicians exhibiting their natural aversion to discussing pain. The truth is David Bradford tion." Zenger recently retired as the chairman of the Times Mirror Training Group.

"Deficit reduction is not the top priority in this package," said Jim Glassman, senior economist for Chase Securities Inc. in New York. "It looks to me like a package of many agendas," such as tax cuts and extra spending. "It pays to be lucky, and President Clinton and Congress got lucky this year," said Susan Tanaka, vice president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a bipartisan deficit watchdog group. "Because the economy was so strong, both could accomplish their objectives - increased spending for the president, cutting taxes for Republicans and still balancing the budget."
