If this is actually a 64-bit machine, try the following in your apt sources:

deb [arch=amd64 trusted=yes] 
http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/debian/stable/ wheezy contrib
deb [arch=amd64 trusted=yes] 
http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/debian/development/ wheezy contrib

("trusted=yes" may no longer be required, but it was when the packages 
were not signed)

Brian.
