"I was surprised he didn't spend more time on Reagan's admission about the CIA and the assassination book, he said. Despite that, political science Prof. Jack Walker said that Mondale controlled much of the debate. "Mondale got the debate to focus on issues he's strong on (particularly ar- ms control) and Reagan allowed him to do that," Walker said. "I'm surprised that Reagan didn't make more of Grenada. I thought he'd try to take more credit for Greneda," he said. ALL IN ALL, the debate contained few surprises for the professors, though Campbell said he was disappointed that more time wasn't spent on economic foreign policy. "Nobody asked the questions that got at it," he said. WARSAW, Poland (AP) - Poland's Roman Catholic Church said yesterday that it feared for the life of a kidnapped pro-Solidarity priest, and government spokesman Jerzy Urban asserted that the abduction was aimed at under- mining the authorities. The church also said there were in- dications that the kidnappers had political motives. The whereabouts or condition of the Rev. Jerzy Popieluszko were not known, and no one had claimed respon- sibility for his abduction, which oc- curred Friday in northern Poland. KESTON COLLEGE, an institution near London that monitors religious af- fairs in Eastern Europe, reported yesterday the Popieluszko had received numerous death threats in recent weeks. Solidarity leaders confirmed the report. The Catholic episcopate, in its first comment on the priest's disappearan- ce, said it "brings deep concern." "On the one hand there is fear about his life and on the other there is fear that kidnapping may become a method of political strife in our country," said a statement issued by the episcopate in Warsaw. "The information we have about the circumstances of the kidnap- ping indicate that the culprits acted for political motives." POPIELUSZKO, 37, is one of the Polish clergy's most outspoken ad- vocates of the now-outlawed Solidarity labor union and had been the target of frequent government attacks for his pro-Solidarity sermons. In Washington, State Department spokesman John Hughes voiced con- cern over the kidnapping and expressed "the strong hope that the Polish gover- nment will ensure Popieluszko's speedy release." Hughes said he had no infor- mation on who might be responsible for the kidnapping. Polish government spokesman Urban said police had received "signals from the population" that Popieluszko was seen alive after the kidnapping, but had not been able to establish the identity of the kidnappers or to determine Popieluszko's whereabouts. URBAN, who said he was speaking in an unofficial capacity, dismissed as "sensational" allegations that the authorities had been involved in the disappearance of Popieluszko. The kidnapping "is a carefully timed provocation aimed against us," Urban said. "I cannot say at the moment who is responsible, but most emphatically one should think. about who stands to gain from this affair and make political capital out of it." A senior Solidarity adviser said the kidnapping was similar to at least three other abductions in the Torun area this year, and confirmed reports that an an- ti-Solidarity "terrorist group" had been operating in the region. "This kind of terrorist group could be a part of a political game which we don't know," said the adviser, Bronislaw Geremek. Solidarity activists said they would press authorities to explain the priest's disappearnace. They organized daily prayer sessions at factories and round- the-clock vigil at St. Stanislaw Kostka Church in Warsaw, where Popieluszko served.

Prof attacks 'ugly student' contest Campbell did point out that the topic was briefly discussed during an ex- change over the Simpson-Mazzoli bill 4 which deals with economic conditions in Mexico and Latin America as # reasons for immigration, but he said that discussion will probably influence few voters. a. "Unless you're passionately concer- ned (with the Simpson-Mazzoli bill) you probably didn't pay any attention to it," Campbell said. "I don't think many people will vote on the basis of Simpson- Mazzoli." Most of the professors agreed that Reagan performed pretty much as he always does. " That was Ronald Reagan all right," 'Kinder said. "Reagan sounded the same as he does in the press conferen- ces. Reagan's sounded like that for the last thirty years." One thing the debate did accomplish was to show the differences between the candidates Walker said. Mondale will be on campus this af- ternoon to speak in front of the Graduate library. The rally is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. Gary Hart will also appear with Mondale. (Continued from Page 1) Holtz. "Now they have a way to identify themselves nationally. They see this as a very positive thing. It is ex- citing and puts them on the map." Jeff Boyer, a junior from Odnora, is president of the 40- member IUP Lobby to Prevent Nuclear War, which he called the campus' only "activist" group. The French major called the students "quite conservative" and the ugly phenomenon ridiculous. "There are more important things to be doing," said Boyer, who last spring engineered a campus "die-in" to promote a bilateral nuclear weapons freeze. "I'd like to see us on the map for something like the smartest students." BOYDER SAID unlike in the '60s, students "aren't con- fronted with something." "Their brothers and fathers aren't off somewhere being killed or killing," he said. 'People know what nuclear war can do. But when confronted with the word extinction, they might ponder it. But it scares them. "So they build a wall around themselves and pretend nothing is wrong. It's not just plain apathy so much as people just don't want to be bothered. They think, 'We made it this far, so why worry?" Boyer said street protests might return if U.S. troops were sent to Central America, but contended the fast-paced arms race could well lead to nuclear war.

Waicukauski gave this account of even- ts based on investigators' reports: Zook attended a party at the frater- nity at about 2 a.m. Sunday. Outside the house, a pickup truck pulled up and almost struck Zook, who in anger broke a mirror on the truck. ZOOK AND some fraternity mem- bers got into a fight, during which Zook's wallet apparently fell from his pocket and was recovered by members of the fraternity. Some friends eventually got Zook to leave and took him back to an apar- tment complex where he was staying. Zook returned to the party armed with an axe handle and became in- volved in another fight, inside the fraternity house, and again friends took him back to the apartment. Zook then apparently slipped out through a win- dow and walked back to the fraternity.
