Study on fifth college enters first stage with surveys, task force through questionnaires to the study's coordinator, Terry May, assistant vice president for academic affairs.

"I assure you that we are starting this study with absolutely no foregone conclusions," the 10 question survey reads.

Approval was granted for the university to begin the planning process by the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges during its regular meeting Oct. 15 .

Girl kills cabbie over $6 fare WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — A 13-year-old girl shot a cab driver to death to avoid paying a $6 fare, police said.

The sixth-grader was dry-o,y2fi during questioning Monday in the slaying of 39-year-old Yves Quettant, who was shot in the back of the head, police said.

"No tears. Just cold. We're talking about coldblooded, premeditated murder committed by a 13-year-old girl who shows no remorse," Sgt, JOhn English said. "It's frightening."

Police want the girl prosecuted for murder as an adult.

Quettant was slain after picking up the girl and two of her friends at a mall Saturday night.

The girl's mother said her daughter hadn' t mentioned the shooting.

"She acted like a 40-year-old, like nothing happened," the mother said. "There was nothing, not one tear. She didn't care at all."

Vince Gill fan freezes for tickets ASHEVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Country music singer Vince Gill has some dedicated fans.

One follower, Tina Wolfe of Asheville, is determined to be first in line to buy tickets for a Gill concert so she is camping outside the Asheville Civic Center box office — even though reserved seats don't go on sale until Feb. 12.

The concert is March 24.

Through sleet and snow and below-zero cold, Ms. Wolfe and relatives have been camped in a van outside the arena's front doors since Tuesday. Friends bring food and drink.

"This is not so much for me, as it is for my mama," she said Sunday.

"I promised mama front-row seats. If I have to sit here a month, then I'll sit here a month."

A feasibility study to consider whether or not the University of Central Oklahoma should create a College of Fine Arts is entering its first stage.

The feasibility study is to be completed by the end of this semester before going to UCO President George Nigh for his approval.

Last September, the 11 department chairs within the College of Liberal Arts voted unanimously that Nigh ask the regents for approval to begin the planning process.

The Chairs' vote came with the understanding that the faculty affected would have an input towards "what goes where."

The plan would remove some departments within the College of Liberal Arts and place them in the proposed new college.

May said the reasoning behind the new college focuses on strengthening programs and fundraising in the fine arts.

"This could help students in that area and enhance our development efforts.

"The focus of the task force is to determine the feasibility of creating or not creating a College of Fine Arts," May said.

"The make-up of the task force is still under study."

He said that a steering team comprised of a Faculty Senate member, an alumni representative, a retired faculty member, appropriate deans, administrative officers and a couple of UCO students will be the first team assembled.

From there, other teams will be cornV See FIFTH COLLEGE, page 4

UCO honors Martin Luther King, Jr.

By Jimmy Hyde Staff Writer Students of all races gathered at the University of Central Oklahoma Monday to celebrate the birthday and life of Martin Luther King Jr. The celebration, entitled "Remembrance of the Dream," began with African drums played by UCO student Jojo Takyi-Micah and the Black National Anthem sung by UCO student Linnea Carr.

"This is a university celebration of a man

who spent his whole life bringing Americans together," said Barry Lofton, Director of Multicultural Student Services.

Miss Black UCO, Jeanette Smith, recited a poem she wrote for the event and said the celebration was not just for the races, but for every human being. Mechel le Aitson, President of the First American Student Association, also read a poem, "In

the Chamber of Democracy."

A video of King's "I Have a Dream" speech was played to cheers and amens by the crowd.

"We can say the same things we said last year, or we can be the torch givers and pass this on to the next generation. The dream started the movement and in my heart, he still lives," said Page.

The highlight of the celebration was a march in honor of King. The students marched with a large banner with the slogan, "Remembrance of the Dream." A

t's a new dawn. For many, a new life begins abruptly with the first traffic jam into the city of Edmond, or the first attempt to find a parking space, or first two-hour line to buy books or pick up financial aid checks.

For others, that life comes to an end just as abruptly. They are no longer college students. They have graduated — willingly or not — into the "real" world of employment opportunities.

The time spent in between those two events can be the deciding factor in whether one lives happily ever after in the career of their dreams, or makes a living wearing a paper hat while flipping burgers, or decides that welfare was the answer all along.

Oklahoma college students can take heart, right now, in the promising predictions of some economic forecasters who see the growth rate increasing to 3 percent, unemployment dropping to 6 percent, and interest rates and inflation figures remaining low.

It's a good time to pursue that degree, to bridge the gap between rocking horse and the work force.

The U.S. is re-entering the world market ring, like a retired champ on the comeback trail. The nation's auto industry has regained it's footing, movies, and almost everything else made in America are enjoying worldwide popularity as never before.

Even the nation's tourist industry is doing well, despite the recent murders of foreign visitors in Florida.

And no longer do UCO graduates need to think in terms of California, Texas, Florida or the northeast as the only sources of job opportunities. Oklahoma's economic growth is also recovering, with an estimated 7,000 new jobs per year for the Oklahoma City area alone.

With the signing of NAFTA and the GATT treaty, a lucrative international market is available to Oklahoma industries and the college graduates employed by them.

It may not even be necessary to leave town to take advantage of Oklahoma's new boom. UCO is the leading employer in Edmond, with 1,361 employees, 189 of whom were hired this last fiscal year.

Deadline for graduation application approaching

By Jennifer Palmer Staff Writer The deadline for applying for spring graduation is approaching, and the sooner graduates and under- graduates apply, the better, recommends Graduate Programming Specialist Bert Luallen.

The deadline for application is Feb. 1, along with a $25 fee.

Students receive a receipt at the finance counter in the Lillard Administration Building when they pay the fee, which they then use to get an application form.

Luallen also recconunends that sudents apply before the 28th of January, which is the deadline to add classes or enroll for the spring semester.

"This makes it easier to make adjustments and make sure you have the classes you need to graduate," said Luallen.

If students are concerned about thier requirements being met, they can go to the graduate office on the second floor of the Lillard Administration Building to pull up files and check them, Luallen said.

"There is a different applica-

tion for undergraduate students than for graduate students. Undergraduates need to apply in the Advisement center in the Administration Building, and graduates need to go to the graduate office on the second floor," he said.

The estimated number of students to apply for graduation in spring is 220 to 225, and it has remained fairly constant over the past five years.

"However, we expect numbers to be a little lower this spring because we had a fall commencement, and many students graduated early,"Luallen said.

Degrees awarded statewide increasing, report says

By Roy Howe Staff Writer

If commencement ceremonies seem to last longer, it may be because the number of college degrees awarded are on the increase by 3.5 percent statewide according to a recent report presented to the State Regents for Higher Education.

The University of Central Oklahoma is keeping pace with the increase showing 159 more diplomas awarded during the 1991-92 school year compared to the previous year.

The regents' data compares the 1991-92 academic year with years past.

The University of Central Oklahoma graduated 2,235 undergraduate and graduate students during the 1991-92 academic year compared to 2,076 students the 1990-91 year.

Statewide, students earned

22,020 degrees at public colleges and universities in 1991-92 compared to 21,279 degrees the year before.

This increase can be attributed to more people realizing the benefits of a college degree, said Hans Brisch, state regents chancellor.

"Oklahomans realize that a college degree provides an educational foundation for future learning, as well as a key to career opportunities and advancement," Brisch said.

"According to the U.S. Census Bureau, college graduates with bachelor's degrees generally earn twice as much as those who have completed only high school," he said.

State Regents measure an academic year in the chronological order of summer, fall and spring semesters.

During the 1992-93 school year, degrees conferred at UCO continued to rise with 2,475 diplomas awarded-240 more than the previous year.

Enrollment at the university has also continued to increase with more than 15,000 students now attending.

Although all the numbers are not in yet, about 855 undergraduate and graduate students were awarded diplomas last month, with the majority from the College of Education.

Two hundred and seventy-seven

students graduated last semester with bachelor's degrees in education compared to 156 in liberal arts, 150 in business and 54 bachelor's degrees in the field of math and science.

The master's degree program graduated 195 students during December with 123 from the College of Education. The College of Business graduated 37 students,

25 graduated from the College of Liberal Arts and six students received a master's degree in the study of math and sciences.

The number of associate degrees and certificates also averaged an increase at public colleges and universities statewide during the 1991-92 school year, the study shows.

Long distance marriage real for UCO professor

By Hal Adamson

Student Writer

Airline and telephone companies must love them. He flies to Chicago six times a year. She makes the Chicago to Edmond journey at least six times annually. They talk to each other once a day on the telephone, sometimes twice a day.

These activities seem appropriate for a Hollywood script about jetsetting business moguls or for a television commercial for the travel industry. For Dr. Jonghoon Chun and his wife Hyunsun, however, marriage by long distance is a reality.

Dr. Chun, assistant professor of Computing Science, is in his second year at the University of Central Oklahoma. He said that Mrs. Chun has two more years of work remaining on her doctorate in computing science from Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. The couple married in Korea in January.

Teaching four classes leaves Dr. Chun little time to spare. Between teaching and telephone calls to his wife, however, he does believe that spare time should be used for "fun."

Music (classical and Korean "pop"), painting and composing are Chun's hobbies. He also enjoys movies and golf.

The family computer resides with his wife in Chicago, so bringing the job home with him is never a problem.

`Blood. w Give a little.

PUZZLE KEY

Dr. Chun came to this country immediately after high school.

"The United States is the mecca for computer science," he said, leaning back in his chair. "Computer science was invented here.

The greatest teachers live here.

IBM is here."

"I knew when I graduated from high school where I wanted to go and what I wanted to do," he said.

His cousin made a lot of money in computer design and sales, so that aspect initially excited Chun.

"After a few years in the computer field, however, I realized that computers are not about making money," he said. "This is something that will help human beings' lives, that will make our lives better in many ways, perhaps. So I was thinking maybe I will be the one to develop a new technology or maybe a basic theory for new technology."

"Teaching, hopefully, will give me a chance to earn a living and to do research at the same time," he said.

Chun, a boyish-looking 29, earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Denver and his master's degree and doctorate from Northwestern University.

Dr. Chun's parents are proud of his accomplishments and he thinks that parental involvement is one of the reasons that Korean secondary students rank among the highest in the world on standardized math and science tests.

"Parents in Korea will do everything, anything, for their children's education. Our parents, those were the generations that experienced the Korean War. They didn't have anything to eat.

They didn't have enough education to get a good job. They realize how important education is to

prised to form the feasibility study task force.

These groups would study budgets, physical plants, curriculum and othermatters that involve consideration for a new college.

When the idea for the fifth college first surfaced early last September, conflicting rumors regarding the composition of the new college by university faculty quickly spread.

"Some people, at the time, misconstrued this as a done deal," May said.

"No one should he overly concerned," said Nigh during the peak of the excitement. "I have an obligation to consider all suggestions," he said.

As the fall semester ended, Lib-

eral Arts faculty and staff were briefed on the latest plans.

"In early December, Dr. Jacob (Vice President for Academic Affairs) and I met with the faculty of Liberal Arts in the Pegasus Theater to explain and ensure them that no decisions have been made yet and that everyone campus-wide would have input."

The 'mission of the feasibility task force is to conduct their study and make a recommendation to Nigh.

"It's entirely open-ended right now," May said.

The task force will determine if there is a need at the university for

If approved, timelines have suggested that the college could be operational by the fall 1994 semester. May said this may not be realistic.

The Economics of the Citibank Classic Visa card. How no annual fee, student discounts and Price Protection create upward growth. A variety of factors have been suggested as contributing to the economic growth of students, including (1) more lottery winners between the ages of 18 and 22, (2) a 37% increase on earnings from bottle and can returns, (3) more students doubling earnings in the lightning round of game shows, and (4) the Citibank Classic Visa® card. It's this last one, however, that affects most students. 11 The Citibank Classic Visa card offers immediate savings to student cardmembers. You can now receive the Citibank Classic card with No Annual Fee. You can capitalize on a $20 Airfare Discount for domestic flights,' a low variable interest rate of 15.4%; as well as savings on mail order purchases, sports equipment, music and magazines.

One might even have enough savings to reinvest in a CD or two (the musical kind, of course). On the way to the record No known picture of Washington smiling exists. Economists believe Washington wcts unhappy because he felt he could have received a better deal on war supplies.

Graduate students of the University of Central Oklahoma have the opportunity to apply for the 13 Professional Development Fellowships that are being offered for the 1994/1995 year in East Central Europe and the Baltic States.

The competition is open to United States citizens who have at least two years behind them as graduate students, said Giulia Squatriti, program manager for the fellowship.

"There are five categories: law students, journalism, business, international relations and public administration," Squatriti said.

Fellowships are available for periods of three to seven months, she said.

Applicants are required to submit an independent study research proposal they wish to pursue and demonstrate how the project will be of benefit to their future plans and professional careers, said

KCSC map announcer says he'll never quit radio, UCO

"This is KCSC, Edmond, Oklahoma City. This is Dave Stanton with your afternoon classics from KCSC. And today for the next couple of hours,we 'II listen to music of Rachnianinoff, Schumann, and in the four o' clock hour, Mozart and Gustav Holst and Richard Wagner.

"It's a warm, breezy day, pushing 60, with gusty south winds.

"The Moscow Virtuosi and Vladimir Spikakov open this hour with the Bach Orchestral Suite No. 4, the overture No. 4 in D major."

For fifty-seven-year-old Dave Stanton, the disc jockey at the University of Central Oklahoma's radio station, KCSC, this type of opening is typical, and one he knows well. He's been in radio for 40 years, and says that he will never retire.

Literary workshop to teach article writing, publication

By Anthony Tompkins Staff Writer

Oklahoma City Arts will hold its fourth and final literary arts workshop, "How to Write Articles for Magazines and Newspapers."

The seminar will be hosted by Kathryn Jenson White from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jan. 29 at the City Arts Center on the fairgrounds.

Those who attend will receive free writer's guidelines and samples of publications, contest information and lists of writer's clubs. Coffee and doughnuts will be provided, but attendees are advised to bring a sack lunch, said Grace Medina, program director and office manager for City Arts.

The seminar will cover step-bystep ways of writing for publication and production of manuscripts that publishers will read, said Kathryn Fanning, City Arts program coordinator and managing editor for Byline.

"Kathryn Jenson White is a fine writer, and anyone who is interested in writing should attend," said Medina.

White is an associate professor of mass communications at Oklahoma City University, a contributing editor for Metro Norman and has written freelance for publications including The Daily Oklahoman, Oklahoma Today, Country Woman and Sooner Magazine, said Fanning.

"White is an extremely funny speaker. My face hurt from laughing after attending one of her seminars," said Fanning.

She has written a "humorous" book called "Redkneckin': A Hell Basin', Foot Stompin' Guide to D017Ci11 ' Dippin' and Dorn' Around in a Gen-U-Wine Country Way," said Fanning.

White also regularly speaks at seminars and workshops around the state, said Fanning.

Cost for attendance is $60. For more information contact Grace Medina at 948-6400.

Police recover stolen equipment The University of Central Oklahoma police department recovered a Singer sewing machine and a serger sewing machine Dec. 7, 1993. The equipment, stolen from the university costume shop on Nov.18, was found on campus, said Sgt. Ted Jones of the UCO police.

"We are not releasing any details of the case until we have completed our investigation," said Jones.

The sewing machines, valued at $750, were discovered missing by Ben Hall, assistant technical director in the drama department.

According to Hall, entry was made through the east side bay door of the scene shop and a chisel used to force open the door of the

Two days before the sewing machines were stolen, a CD player and 10 CDs were taken from the costume room.

Mary Freeh, a costumer for UCO who offered a $100 reward in November for information leading to the recovery of the sewing machines, said that no one contacted her to claim the reward.

"I'm thrilled that the property was recovered," said Freeh. "I just hope we get the machines back in the shop soon."

Jones said that the equipment appeared to be in good condition and is being held as evidence in the pending investigation.

The CD player and CDs have not been recovered.

UCO's Wild Campus: In search of Oklahoma's wild College Senior

By Joe Umbarger

COLUMN

Managing Editor

More than 700 endangered species are currently listed in the world, but perhaps the plight of the wild College Senior of the North American central plains is most tragic of all.

Great lumbering beasts with few natural enemies, the numbers of College Seniors, nevertheless, continue to dwindle to predators, apathy on the part of society, and administrative poaching.

In an effort to discover how this trend might be reversed, I have decided to locate as many specimens as possible for electronic tagging, so that future studies of college Seniors will be easier and yield more valid data than is currently available.

Armed only with a tranquilizer gun, ear tags, and a variety of measuring equipment, and accompanied by my native guide, Two-point (a sort of average guide), I head out for the nearby

village of Edmond, on the Oklahoma prairie, which the natives call Crowded Sumbech.

We are told that College Seniors can probably be found grazing along the broad expanse of campus, but on this day, we don't see any.

We do find a gaggle of Hackeysackers, however, and stop for a while to watch their highstepping antics.

Hackeysackers are strange, long-legged birds who pass their eggs back and forth to one another by bouncing them off their feet and jointed legs.

Naturalists are unsure why they do this, but some believe it is a means of protecting the eggs from predators by keeping them in constant motion.

Meanwhile, Two-point thinks he has spotted a small herd of College Seniors in the distance.

Red Earth presents two award winning artists

By Anthony Tompkins Staff Writer

The Red Earth Indian Center in the Kirkpatric Center is hosting Red Earth Festival award-winning Native American artists William Glass, Jr. and Benjamin Harjo in an art exposition through Feb. 18.

Eric Oesch, public relations director for Red Earth and former editor of the University of Central Oklahoma's Bronze Book said Glass is of Cherokee Indian decent, and resides in Locust Grove, Oklahoma. He is a sculptor and pottery maker who uses traditional techniques to bring his Native American heritage to life in his art.

He has won 50 awards and honors throughout his career, including his initiation into the Master's category of the Five Civilized Tribes Museum in Muskogee, Oklahoma and winning seven Red Earth festival awards. said Oesch.

Harjo, a Seminole-Shawnee Indian and Oklahoma City resident, is a Red Earth Festival Grand Award Winner. During a career spanning more than 20 years, his "contemporary" and "abstract" style of painting and pen drawing

Free tuberculosis (TB) testing is available for University of Central Oklahoma students at the Student Health Center.

Staff nurses at the Health Center can administer the test before 10:30 a.m. and between 1:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. It takes two days to receive the test results.

"We don' thave any active cases of TB on campus," said Jamie Crooch, Student Health Center staff nurse.

Students are given chest X-rays to determine if they have active TB. Lesions in the lungs indicate active TB, but none of the students involved in the Health Center's preventive program have active TB, said Crooch.

"If anybody thinks they were exposed," said Dr. Patricia Quinlisk from the Oklahoma State Department of Health, "it is very easy to go in and get treated."

Anyone with active TB can receive free treatment at the county Health Department.

TB is a communicable disease that is spread through the air when

TB can not be treated in seven to 10 days like some illnesses, because it is a slow-growing bacteria.

-Dr. Patricia Quinlisk a person coughs, sneezes, laughs or sings. A person can be infected without having any symptoms because the infection is contained by the immune system. The symptoms for active TB are fatigue, fever, weight loss, night sweats or a dry cough that can produce blood.

People at a higher risk are individuals who do not have adequate access to health care systems like illegal immigrants and homeless people. Nursing home residents, prisoners and intravenous drug users are also at risk, said Quinlisk.

Nursing home residents are at a risk because they could have been exposed to the disease years ago when TB was more widespread, and their immune systems are not as strong.

Nursing home residents and prisoners are also at risk because they live in crowded conditions.

Substance abuse problems, which can be found in prisons, also put people at a higher risk, she said.

People infected with AIDS or HIV are also at a higher risk because their immune system is weak. There are a few cases in Oklahoma where a person with HIV or AIDS also has tuberculosis, she said.

Approximately 4 percent of AIDS patients in the United States had TB as of 1986, and at least 25 percent of the people infected with tuberculosis also have HIV, reported a statement released by the Oklahoma State Department of Health.

Tuberculosis can be cured with antibiotics. Usually, TB is treated with three or four drugs unlike illnesses such as strop throat, which only require one antibiotic, Quinlisk said.

TB can not be treated in seven to 10 days like some illnesses, because it is a slow-growing bacteria. A person can develop resistance easily, so antibiotics are given from six months to a year, she said.

Addams fellowships being offered

By Michelle PeIler Staff Writer The University of Central Oklahoma graduate students have the chance to apply for the six 10 months long Jane Addams Fellowships in Philanthropy program at the Indiana University Center on Philanthropy.

The program entails several seminars and required trips, such as a fundraising school, said Beverly Jones, manager of news and information at the Indiana University Center on Philanthropy.

The applicants must be interested in the non-profit sector, have leadership potential and have good

academic performance, she said.

"It is a highly competitive program," said Jones.

Although it is a competitive program, one doesn't have to have a 4.0 grade point average, she said.

The center is looking for people with "special qualities in community service, leadership and commitment in community service," said Jones.

Each fellow will receive $15,000 for the year and 12 credits toward a graduate degree, she said.

The fellow is responsible for food and lodging, she added.

"It inspires young leaders to work in this sector and to study Philanthropy," said Jones.

The Oklahoma State Department of Health reported an increase in the number of people with meningitis, but the University of Central Oklahoma has not had any cases reported.

Ten cases of meningitis have been reported in Oklahoma in the last two months with one associated death at this time, said Dr. Patricia Quinlisk from the Health Department.

"Since we haven't seen any active cases," said Jamie Crooch, staff nurse at the Student Health Center, "it isn't something we are concerned with."

Neisseria meningitidis, a bacteria that can cause meningitis, has a high mortality rate and can result in a quick death, Quinlisk said.

"Usually a person feels ill and has headaches," she said. "Then they go into a coma and die."

Meningitis can quickly cause death. A person can wake up feeling fine and die that night, but a death usually occurs after a couple of days, Quinlisk said.

Neisseria meningitis can be cured through early diagnosis and treatment with antibiotics. There is a vaccine for most types of meningitis but not for meningitis B, the most common strain, she said.

Viral meningitis is spread by mosquitoes, but bacterial meningitis, which is usually more severe, can spread through coughing and sneezing, Quinlisk said.

But the semester will progress, as it always does, into a more manageable mess where we are all comfortably behind on our assignments and in need of more weekends.

But we do get through it, and if we're not careful, we will learn something and perhaps be exposed to some ideas and concepts that will challenge us, motivate us and maybe even change us a little.

New semester takes all kinds

Children and young adults are particularly at risk because they haven't built up an immunity, she said.

"Very seldom does anyone over the age of five get it because they have immunity," Quinlisk said.

The American Public Health Association said children less than 5 years old make up 70 percent of all reported cases of bacterial meningitis.

There has not been an outbreak of meningitis even though a few cases of meningitis have been reported, so it is not an epidemic, she said.

Crooch said nurses are available at the center from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., and they can evaluate a student's condition. Doctors also make sick calls once a day, but if a student needs immediate attention, he is sent to the emergency room.

2 state House Republicans oppose impeachment of Gov. Walters

By Dayna Poarch

Staff Writer OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Two Republican members of the state House of Representatives have broken ranks with their party and decided not to support a move to impeach Gov. David Walters.

Reps. James D. Holt, R-Ponca City. and Elmer Maddox, RMooreland, cited constituent opposition to efforts to Oust the Democratic governor, who pleaded guilty in October to a misdemeanor campaign violation.

Clinton Key, chairman of the state Republican Party, said today he believed the impeachment movement is dead.

"For all practical purposes, from what I've seen, it looks to me like the governor has spent the holidays campaigning," Key said in an interview with Oklahoma City radio station KTOK. Key said he thought the odds of impeachment went down when House Democrats decided against a special session and have continued to drop as Walters tries to switch Democratic votes.

Judge dismisses man for tricking twin's girlfriend into having sex MINEOLA, N.Y. (AP) — It may be a crime of the heart, but it's not a sex crime in New York if you trick your twin brother's girlfriend into making love.

On Thursday, Nassau County Judge Michael Galasso dismissed a sexual misconduct charge against Lamont Hough, 23.

The judge said he couldn't conclude whether Hough had sex with the woman, but ruled that the charge didn't fit the alleged act.

Police said Hough knocked on the unidentified woman's door in the middle of the night March 28, and the woman groggily let him in, calling him Lenny, the name of his identical twin. According to court papers, he asked her for sex, and she told him to make it quick because she had to work in the morning.

Afterward, Hough allegedly asked: "What are you going to tell Lenny?"

The woman got out of bed, turned on the light, threw Hough's clothes out the door and called police, according to court papers.

Defense attorney Peter Bongiorno said Hough denied the allegations and has his brother's support, As recently as six weeks ago, the woman told investigators that she and her boyfriend were still dating.

Sen. David Boren advises change for Clinton's health care proposal OkLAHOMA CITY (AP) — U.S. Senator David Boren said President Clinton's proposal to overhaul the nation's health care system would need to be changed substantially before he could support it.

"While the American people want health-care reform, Congress must remember that we are dealing with one-seventh of our total economy," Boren, D-Okla., warned in a planned speech Monday to the Wewoka Chamber of Commerce.

"Any major mistakes could be devastating to our economy," he said in remarks provided beforehand by his Washington office.

Congress, which begins its 1994 session in a week, is expected to deal with health care reform for much of this year.

Boren criticized Clinton's plan, but he did not endorse any other plan, including those by fellow members of Oklahoma's congressional delegation.

Sen. Don Nickles, R-Okla., has proposed a plan and Rep. Mike Synar, D-Okla., is working on a compromise of three proposals by Democrats.

Boren is a member of the Senate Finance Committee, which has jurisdiction over health care.

Among other things, he insisted that freedom of choice must be maintained; that small businesses should not have their burden increased if the costs of health care are underestimated, and small insurance companies and health providers should be allowed to compete.

"While I believe in reform ... we must be very careful not to destroy the good parts of our present system and avoid wrecking the economy by underestimating the costs," Boren said.

The Omniplex Science Museum invites children to explore the world of toys and robotics Jan. 29 at the final workshops offered in the January Science Sessions.

The workshops do not involve the usual learning techniques. The children learn from hands-on experience rather than lectures, said Tony Zodrow, public relations director.

The museum has 10 full-time educators who lead the children's workshops and adult showcases.

Children's workshops are held each month, Zodrow said.

"We try to take a different approach each month," he said. "We gear the activities for specific age groups."

The workshops will involve

They will learn what forces physics plays on toys.

The deadline for registration is Jan. 24. Tuition and materials for the workshops are 521, except for "Advanced Toy Tinkers" which will cost $23.

Parents are encouraged to enroll their child early because classes are limited to 12-15 children. The effectiveness of the workshops rely on the low number of students in each class, Zodrow said.

The museum also offers showcases for adults. Green Arcade showcases are held each weekend. The topics include agriculture, nutrition and horticulture, he said.

Workshops are held throughout the year. Last year 88,000 children participated in the workshops, and 250, 000 adults attended showcases, he said.

For more information or to enroll in the workshops, contact the Omniplex education department at 424-5545.

learning how toys work and constructing toys. The children will be able to keep the toys they make, Zodrow said.

Children in the "Advanced Toy Tinkers" workshop will build a robotics toy using the Capsela Science Discovery System, he said.

Two sessions will be held. One session for children ages 3-4 will be from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Another session for children ages 4-5 will be from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Each child needs to be accompanied by at least one adult.

The workshop "A Toymaker's Dream" is for children ages 6-8.

They will learn what causes a toy to move and what makes a yo-yo work. They will also make a motorized toy. The workshop will be from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

The session "Tinkering with Physics" is for children ages 9-12.

Men, women basketball topple ENMU

By Scott Moore Staff writer

Eastern New Mexico recieved the one-two punch from the University of Central Oklahoma Saturday night as the men's and women's basketball teams took it to the wire before pulling out exciting victories for the hometown crowd at Hamilton Field House.

Senior forward Penni Kime paced the Lady Bronchos with 16 points as they took the early game from ENMU 76-70, while the UCO men capped off the night with an 85-81 come-from-behind triumph.

The UCO men overcame a dismal first-half shooting just 29 percent from the field to capture their first Lone Star Conference

win. Junior forward Junie Sanders led all scorers with 24 points.

"They didn't really cause too many problems for us, we just couldn't get our shots to fall," said Sanders. "It was a matter of us just concentrating on our shooting."

The Bronchos trailed at the half 37-28, but they roared back with an 18-5 run in the first 5:14 of the second half to climb back into the contest, taking a 46-42 lead. The Bronchos trailed 75-70 with 2:54 left in the gam, but a 14-6 run with 2:33 left pulled out the win.

The Lady Bronchos, on the other hand, used excellent shooting for their second confernece win. The Lady Bronchos also forced 16 first half turnovers and netted 10 steals.

"We anticipated that this might be a close game," said senior forward Tammy Cummings. "What

they did was press, and we worked on the press in practice so it was easy to break it and go score points."

The Lady Bronchos hit 50 percent of their shots in the second half and took the lead for good when Cummings hit a free throw to go up 51-50 with 12:02 left in the game.

ENMU pulled to within two at 72-70 with :40.6 left, but the Lady Bronchos went 4-4 from the charity stripe in the last 16 seconds to seal the victory.

The Lady Brochos improve to 6-7 overall and 2-0 in the conference. The men raise thier record to 10-3 and 1-0. Both teams go on the road to face Angelo State in conference play on Jan.22. The women begin at 6 p.m., the men at 8 p.m.

Broncho mat men dominate in Missouri

Domination is nothing new to the University of Central Oklahoma wrestling program.

Last weekend the two-time defending NCAA Division II and number one ranked Bronchos visited the Southwest Missouri Invitational in Springfield, Mo. and walked away with the team title as they did last year.

UCO racked up 127 points with seven individual champions and two runners-up in the 10 team tournament. Host SouthwestMissouri was second with 64.25 points.

"Our guys answered the bell with nine finalists and two second placers, we doubled the competi-

tion," said Head Coach David James.

Leading the Bronchos was Chance Skidgel's upset of topranked Darin Tiedt of Wisconsin-Parkside at 177 pounds.

Also winning titles for the Bronchos were 118 Randy Zellner, 126 Brian Melchiori, 134 Ryan Martin, 158 Wes White, 167 Keith Cunningham and 190 Chad Humphrey.
