Try this:

Code:
\begin{thm}
  \begin{trivlist}
  \end{trivlist}
  \vspace*{1ex}
  \noindent
    Let . . .
\end{thm}

You can adjust the vertical space to your liking.

Another possibility is to paste this garbage at the beginning of the document (after \documentclass but before \begin{document}:

Code:
\makeatletter
\def\@begintheorem#1#2{\trivlist
   \item[\hskip \labelsep{\bfseries #1\ #2}]\itshape 
   \leavevmode\vskip\baselineskip\noindent}
\makeatother


Then if in the document you write e.g.

\newtheorem{thm}{Theorem}
\begin{thm} Statement of theorem ...
\end{thm}

you should get the output

Theorem 1

Statement of theorem ...

It is now apparent that Opalg knows TeX whereas I do not. :wink:
