Crowded classes plague business By Stephen Mark Neuzil The School of Business has received the largest enrollment of all the schools at CSU and now faces an even more severe overcrowding problem, according to Dr. James Perry, dean of the School of Business. In the spring printouts, which indicate the student credit hours produced by the schools, only two show an increase, said Perry. The School of Liberal Arts had an increase of 32.1 percent, while business showed an increase of 22.3 percent. The increase is putting even more pressure on an already overstrained business program. Every room in the Business School is occupied with full classes, averaging from 40 to 60 students. Extensions from the school are also occupying rooms in 10 other buildings across the campus. "There are two answers to this problem," said Perry . "First, we need more physical space. Second, we need more faculty. But we must try and find some middle road between these two." Once classes have reached their full capacity, the class is closed and the remaining students are denied their choice.
•
"It's a hell of a problem," said Perry. "We are here to serve the people of the state of Oklahoma. We cannot shut the doors in the faces of the people." Student enrollment was up this semester in the School of Business by 7.17 percent and is on the increase every semester. "In business, demand is way up," said Perry. "We are making a special effort at restructuring schedules to meet the needs of students." Although the School of Business carries the smallest full-time faculty on campus, the instructors are showing a great deal of concern for their students, said Perry. Much of the faculty would appreciate teaching in a smaller atmosphere, he added, but until the problem is resolved, they well try their best to educate.
Government tightens belt
Further cuts could affect students By Debbie Atchley An estimated 800 to 1,000 CSU students could be affected by President Reagan's proposed budget cuts for student aid appropriations. This is the opinion of CSU financial aids director Rhonda Freeman, who said there has already been some shaving on aid for programs this year. Freeman stated that the Pell grants for CSU in 1980-81 was $1,275 million given to 869 students. "With this year's
Approximately 1,000 CSU students may be affected by President Reagan's proposed budget cuts in student aid.

Fortunately, several students were absent this day or several would have ended up seated on a piano bench. The music building is one of 10 buildings that house the oversized business school.

She attributes this reduction to the federal government adjusting the formula for determining recipents based on such items as taxable and non-taxable income of the family, family assets, how many children, how many living in the home, the age of the oldest working parent, income of the student and other factors. However, she said it will be the fall of 1983 before any drastic cuts appear, even though Congress will have to vote in March on appropriations through the fall of 1982. Aware of possible budget cuts for student aid for several months through a national association of financial aid directors, Freeman said the Reagan proposal will also include budget cuts in programs other than the Pell grant. "With the reduction of student loans, supplemental grants, National Direct Student Loans, Guaranteed Student Loans, state grants that are matched by federal dollars and work study, student aid will be a lot tighter," she said. In a December report published by the National Association of Student Financial Aids Administrators, figures show that such programs as Guaranteed Student Loans for graduate students will be eliminated. This program has allowed graduates to borrow from local banks up to $5,000 a year at nine percent in-
terest. The government makes payments on the interest at a prime rate while the student is in

Students do not have to start paying on the principal until they leave school. Freeman said in Oklahoma the Guaranteed Student Loan is the only graduate aid program approved by the state legislature

"Other programs are available through the government but not approved as yet by our legislature. The Auxiliary Loan Assistance Program is financed at 14 percent for the student and payments begin after 60 days." "The goal right now is to salvage as much as possible for student aids," said Freeman. "Several national education groups are coming together in one con-

Supportive information for lobbying efforts is being distributed to financial aid directors throughout the country. "This survey will document and state that if you cut ' X' amount of dollars then the end results will affect 'X' amount of students by either having benefits reduced or completely eliminated." Freman said more than 4,000 students at CSU are presently receiving some type of aid through private funds, Veteran's Assistance, VocationalRehabilatation, Social Security, student loans, or grants.

Opinion Page Student objects to Baha'i persecution To the Editor: Is this the 20th century? Perhaps time has turned suddenly backward to an age of savagery, when innocent people were wrongly persecuted, such as the early Christians under the Roman rulers or the Jews in Hitler's Germany. In this supposedly civilized day, members of the Baha'i faith in Iran have been, and continue to be, mercilessly persecuted in every manner imaginable. Baha'i children are not allowed to attend schools and Baha'i students and professors are banned from the universities. Baha'i holy places have been destroyed and the Baha'i cemetery in Tehran has been seized. Baha'i homes have been looted and destroyed and the Baha'is driven from them. More than 100 Baha'is have been executed, the latest among them being the eight members of Iran's National Assembly and six members of the local administrative body of Tehran, who were all secretly executed without benefit of trials. The beliefs of this oppressed group must
be very dangerous to warrant such violent actions. These dangerous beliefs include the oneness of God, the oneness of all mankind and the oneness of all religions. Also threatening are such things as the goal of elimination of all prejudices, of total non-involvement in politics and obeying existing governments. This unjust persecution cannot go ignored. Now the Baha'i of this university and of the city of Edmond make this plea: write or telegram your congressman immediately. During the month of February, various committees of Congress will hold hearings concerning religious persecution throughout the world. Undoubtably, the situation of the Baha'i in Iran provides the most dramatic example of straightforward religious persecution and must be brought to the attention of Congress. On behalf of the Baha'i community of Edmond and the Baha'is at Central State University — do not let history recall that this terrible injustice went ignored.

Mental health program provides understanding CSU students interested in a program set on mental illness can hear Siavash Nael, M.D. conduct a discussion on Maniac Depressive illness at 7 p.m., Feb. 16 at the MHAOC office, 5104 N. Francis, Suite B. Approximately 1.5 million Americans suffer from maniac depressive illnesses, but only one-third have been diagnosed. The illness which typically strikes in the late teens or early 20s is now thought to be genetically determined. If a person has a gene from the illness, there is about an 85 percent chance another first-degree relative will suffer from it.
Nael, a psychiatrist practicing at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, will conduct the program to provide a more understanding of the illness and its treatment. The program is sponsored by the Mental Health Association on Oklahoma County and it will be free to the public. Although maniac depression is an illness frequently misdiagnosed in the past years, it is now more successfully treated with the advent of the drug, lithium. For more information contact the Mental Health Association at 524-6363.

Kidney fund bridges donor, patient gap CSU students wanting to become organ donors can through the National Kidney Foundation (NFK) of Oklahoma, 3313 N. Classen, Suite 104, Oklahoma City. This year the national Kidney Foundation has been named the American Contract Bridge League's charity of the year according to Michael Mize, president of the NKF of Oklahoma, Inc. The American Contract Bridge League (ACBL) will provide $125,000 to the NKF for support of its Organ Donor Public Education Program. The project, entitled "Bridging the Gap," will enable production and distribution of films, slides, brochures, posters, billboards and radio and television public service announcements aimed at increasing public awareness of the need for organ donation. The purpose of the project is to "bridge the gap between the number of kidney failure patients awaiting transplantation and the shortage in numbers of organs donated. The ACBL will also provide
two research fellowships. These fellowships will generate research into improved transplantation techniques and causes for transplant rejection. Fifty-seven thousand people in the U.S. have kidney failure and rely on dialysis to sustain life. Thousands hope for transplantation to provide a chance for a better quality of life. According to Alan Oaks, executive secretary for the American Contract Bridge League Charity Foundation, there are 5,000 ACBL clubs in the U.S. Each club plays one Charity Tournament per year to benefit a national charity. The ACBL has 200,000 members. Over the past 25 years more than five million dollars have been contributed by the ACBL to various charities in the field of medical research and scholarship. For further information about becoming an organ donor or participating in local ACBL charity tournaments contact the NKF of Oklahoma, Inc., at 405 528-3900.

Play opens second season "Androcles and the Lion" is a story about a poor Christian pauper who befriends a wounded lion and the consequences of the Roman persecution of the Christains. The play will be presented by the CSU drama department under the direction of Don Bristow. Performances, shown in Mitchell Hall, will be Feb. 11, 12, 13 and 18, 19, 20. Scenes from the play are (left)
Androcles (Brett Dotter) patiently listening to the constantly complaining from his nagging wife, Megeara (Christi Knight) during the prologue. Lavinia (Kelly Morris, left), sister of Ferrovious, and Androcles (right) realize the plight of Ferrovious (Mike Shaw, middle), a Roman gladiator, as he is about to inter the Arena to fight. They
wish him well and hope for a safe return. Bernard Shaw's "Androcles and the Lion" uses the persecution of Christians in ancient Rome as the crutch of his British play. It was first produced in 1913 and will continue to be popular as long as appreciative audiences will respond favorable, commented Bristow.

that compose the federal government. Cronin,considered to be one of the leading academic authorities on the presidency, said that most people have the "text-book" notion of the pyramid power of the government: president rules, congress enforces, and all the little people make up the base. "This makes life miserable for the president and makes it difficult to do the job," he said, adding that presidents are blamed for all that goes wrong and it is presumed they should know all.

political power is the higher civil servants who have retained a job for more than four years. "J. Edgar Hoover, for example, is one of the most important figures to come out of the bureau, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)," he said. Hoover went to Washington D.C. as a Government Specialist I, lowest level of working government, at age 21, and rose to become head of the FBI for 30 years. "He got power by getting to know people. He is more powerful than any other chief," he said. Cronin added that people who serve the government, like Hoover, for several years know how to wire the system and know how to make things happen.
Victory pursued in movie
Review A story of struggle, courage, determination and ultimate Life, Health, Auto, Fire' triumph, "Chariots Of Fire " is a movie about the passions of men driven to compete. But more particularly, it is the story of two Floyd Alcorn, exceptional young men—Eric Agent Liddell, for whom winning means a victory for God and 209 S.

"Officials fear the bureau chiefs because they (chiefs) know more than they do. Presidents hold out for four years if they're lucky," stated Cronin, "and some of them haven't even worked in Washington before." Both Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan were Washington outsiders prior to their election. Presidents can't control bureau staffs pointed out Cronin; therefore, they aren't in much control. "In politics, you don't have friends— you just have allies, – Cronin said referring to a quote by John F. Kennedy. "I've traveled to 28 countries and compared governments. Ours is a very ineffective, complicated system, but I like it," Cronin said.
In "Chariots Fire," the two leading roles are played by actors making their screen debuts—Ben Cross and Ian Charleson. Memorable roles are also protrayed by Nick Farrell, Nigal Havers, Daniel Gerroll, Alice Drige and Cheryl Campbell. The choice of values is key to the dramatic development of "Chariots of Fire," challenging the two main characters in their pursuit of victory.

15 cadets train with Special Forces By Patrick M. Bailey "I am going because I want to be dirty and grungy for a whole weekend," quipped Rachel Van Horn. Van Horn, a freshman preveterinary major, will be among 15 Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) cadets that will be participating in a field training exercise with U.S. Army Reserve Special Forces this weekend at Ft. Chaffee, Ark. The exercise will accomplish a two-fold purpose. Members of 2nd Battalion, 12th Special Forces Froup, Tulsa, will get practice in teaching "guerilla" forces basic soldier skills while cadets acting as the guerillas from CSU and four other universities will gain the practical knowledge. "This will be a good opportunity for cadets to practice patrolling and combat techniques," commented Maj. William Bache, assistant professor of military science. According to Bache, the cadets will have an exciting and busy weekend. Cadets will depart CSU on U.S. Army Chinook helicopter of Friday afternoon and arrive at Ft. Chaffee two hours later. Once there, the group will establish a chain of command. The first task to be accomplished by this command will be to establish a patrol base. Bache pointed out that organizing the patrol base will include establishing security, posting guards, erecting temporary shelters and establishing procedures for field hygiene. "We'll have to divide up into pairs to make buddy teams who will work with each other and give each other support," added Bache. On Saturday the guerillas will meet with their respective Special Forces unit representatives. The meeting between the cadet guerillas will be designed to simulate a clandestine secret meeting that Special Forces personnel would normally have to link up with groups in foreign countries. Once the "link up" has been established, the cadets will receive classes in an array of military subjects. The "hands-on" instruction will include training on Soviet made weapons and techniques in patrolling. Basic techniques in survival will also be presented to include foraging for food in case the "guerillas" run out of the dehydrated food rations that they will be issued. For many of the cadets, the highlight of the weekend training session will be observing an airborne operation that the Green Beret until will conduct approximately midnight on Saturday night.

CSU cadets Trent Scott and Nathan Cornell who are members of the Special Forces unit in Oklahoma City are tentatively scheduled to participate in the military parachuting exercise that evening. CSU cadets that are planning to attend are looking forward to the weekend as a new experience. "I've always been interested in Special Forces and how they work " said Cadet Mark
Treanor, history education major, about his decision to go. "I've never done anything of this nature before. This will be a first time," said (Monty) Mongomery, a sophomore nursing major. "It sounds like a unique experience that I didn't want to miss." Master Sgt. William Picknell, an instructor in the military science department who has been Special Forces Qualified since 1965, pointed out that the cadets
are usually introduced to conventional methods of soldiering in combat. This trip will expose them to the unconventional side. In preparation for the weekend exercise the cadets will be issued U.S. Army Ranger handbooks, camping equipment and warm sleeping bags. The sleeping bags may be the most important item. "Weather forecast," said Picknell, "is that it might be a cold weekend, but that's all a part of the game."

Bronchettes whip Savagettes By Robert Slankard

Kendal Cudjoe tries a shot in Wednesday night's 70-59 loss to Southeastern. Cudjoe played his final game for CSU at home against the Savages and, although he came into the contest averaging over 15 points per game, was held to just nine.
Seniors play last home game
Gayle Stout and Patti Komalty combined for 57 points as the Bronchettes outlasted the Southeastern Savagettes 83-71 Wednesday night in Broncho Fieldhouse. Stout scored 34 points while Komalty pitched in 23. However, Komalty, who could have been arrested for grand larcency, also had an incredible 11 steals, 13 assists and 11 rebounds to help CSU improve their record to 13-7. The Bronchettes got off to a slow start and trailed by six with just under 14 minutes left in the opening period. However, Komalty's steal and pass to Stout for the layup seemed to awaken the sleeping Bronchettes as they outscored SE 14-4 during a five minute span. Stout hit four buckets while Komalty picked off two passes as CSU took a 21-16 lead with 9:05 left in the half. The two schools then traded a total of 18 buckets as CSU never lead by less than three or more than five in the final nine minutes. Stout finished the first half with 16 while Komalty added 13 as CSU led 37-34. The schools traded baskets to
open the second half but the Bronchettes finally managed to open a sizeable lead with three unanswered buckets, the final one by Stout off a steal and assist from Komalty. CSU built its lead to 11 at 49-38 with just over 15 minutes left, before six unanswered points by SE brought the Savagettes to within striking distance. Two more Stout layups off Komalty steals kept the Bronchettes up by four with just over nine minutes remaining but a costly turnover helped SE knot the score at 59-59 with 8:25 left. CSU managed to squander an 11 point lead in seven minutes and it appeared the Bronchettes could be headed for a loss similar to the heartbreak against Cameron two weeks ago. But Stout and Komalty made sure that didn't happen as they combined for 18 of CSU's final 24 points.
Two free throws by Stout and another steal by Komalty result-. ing in a bucket for Tammy London put CSU on top by four with seven minutes left and the Bronchettes never looked back. A free throw from Debra McCauley pulled SE to within three at the 6:16 mark. But two
buckets by Stout, one by Rochelle Ware and four points and three steals from Komalty gave CSU a commanding 75-62 lead with just over three minutes left. The Savagettes managed to pull within six with 1:20 left but it was to little to late as Stout answered with four points and Komalty with two to end the game. Although Komalty and Stout scored over half of CSU's points, several other Bronchettes provided key baskets and rebounds throughout the game. Ware, saddled with foul trouble earlier, had six points and five rebounds and provided much needed defensive help in the final ten minutes. Teresa Campbell had 10 points and five rebounds while London finished with six points and six rebounds. High scorers for SE were Debra Thomas with 21 points while Cherry Kemp chipped in 16. Stout entered the contest as CSU's leading scorer with a 15.6 average while Komalty was second, averaging 12 points per game. Komalty has now scored 56 points in her last two games, 33 coming in Monday night's win over Northeastern.

they scored the game's first seven points. But CSU came roaring back, scoring 15 unanswered points to take a 15-7 lead with 9:35 left in the first half. However, sloppy play and poor shooting by the Bronchos enabled SE to chop away at the lead and tie the game up at 18-18 with 4:49 left. Thomas then took control for CSU scoring five points and giving the Bronchos a 31-26 lead with just under two and a half minutes remaining. But once again careless play on CSU's part enabled SE to pull within one, 25-24 at the end of the half. Cudjoe had seven points in the first 20 minutes but Crosby, CSU's leading scorer on the season, was held to just four. CSU opened the second half with two baskets by Thomas to build their lead back to five. However, the Bronchos missed numerous chances to improve on that lead as SE failed to score a point in the first five and a half minutes. The Savages did regain their shooting touch though and sent CSU down to its 17th loss against Vista photo by Daniel Smith eight wins. Anthony Andrews, a freshman from Oklahoma City Millwood, Crosby ended up CSU's top scorer with 16 points, followed passes off in the Southeastern game. Andrews was held to a single by Thomas with 11. Pierce had basket against the Savages after scoring 10 in Monday night's loss to Northeastern. 10 and Cudjoe had nine.

Bronchettes stomp Lady Tigers, 75 60 -
The Bronchettes exploded for 46 first-half points and a 14 point lead and then coasted to a 75-60 victory over East Central in Ada Saturday night. The contest was supposed to be a battle for AIAW supremacy in Oklahoma, with the winner probably getting the top seed in the year-end tournament. But CSU jumped on the Lady Tigers early and Gayle Stout saw to it that ECU never challenged. Stout scored 28 points, connecting on 14 of 21 field goal attempts and pulled down three rebounds to go with eight steals and four assists. Rochelle Ware was next with 23 points and eight rebounds. Pattie Komalty had 13 points, eight rebounds, 10 assists and six steals as she continued to possibly be the Bronchettes best allaround performer. Tammy London was the high rebounded for CSU with 15 to go along with her 10 points. The Bronchettes followed what is becoming a familiar pattern to gain their 14th victory of the season against seven losses. In victories last week, Komalty and Stout combined for 49 points against Northeastern and 57 against Southeastern. Ware missed a lot of the Southeastern, game, but against the Lady Tigers, Ware, Stout, and Komalty combined for 64 points. The Bronchettes were expected to be hurt by the loss of Cynthia Foster for the rest of the

ECU, 47-46 Charles Crosby hit a jumper with eight seconds left to give the Bronchos a 47-46 victory over the East Central Tigers in Ada Saturday night. In a very slow paced game, the Bronchos trailed by as much as 11 points before rallying from a 33-37 trail midway through the second half for their ninth win of the season. CSU has 17 losses. The Bronchos played a lackluster first half and fell behind 21-32 before settling on a 25-32 halftime score. CSU managed to stay fairly close throughout the second half and trailed 36-37 when Crosby pulled a three point play to put the Bronchos ahead. However, Troy McWilliams hit a layup for ECU with just 32 seconds left to give the Tigers a seemingly secure 46-45 lead. But Crosby, who finished with nine points, spoiled ECU's night with his game winner. Steve Austin led the low scoring Bronchos with 10 points and Crosby pulled down a team leading six rebounds. Teddy Noel and Brent Alford had eight points each with Alford connecting on a hot four of five from the field. The Tiger's leading scorers were Mike Cox and Leon Harris with 12 points each.
year, but Ware gave CSU a strong inside game against ECU and hit 10 of 12 field goals, many coming from point blank range. Both teams were sizzling from the field in the first half as CSU hit 64 percent from the field and ECU shot 61 percent. However, the difference came in rebounding where the Bronchettes held a 37-28 edge for the game. CSU also turned the ball over 20 times. ECU has 25 turnovers. The teams cooled off considerably in the second half as CSU connected on 41 percent of their shots while ECU hit 39 percent. High scorer for ECU was Shelly Brown with 23 points and 17 rebounds, followed by Rhonda Bryant with 15 points and three rebounds. Before the game, coach John Keely had felt the contest would go a long way in determining the number one seed in the AIAW tournament, featuring CSU, ECU, Langston and Panhandle. With the win, the Bronchettes now appear to be in the driver's seat.
Brent Alford and Kendal Cudjoe put pressure on a Southeastern Savage in last week's 70-59 loss.
Spotlight on sports
Bronchettes keep right on 'winnin' By Robert Slankard John Keely's Bronchettes continued their amazing season by whipping the East Central Lady Tigers in Ada Saturday night 75-60. The victory avanged an earlier 64-56 loss to the Lady Tigers in Broncho Fieldhouse and it also showed just how far the Bronchettes have come in the last few weeks. Since falling to 3-4 in the final few weeks of 1981, CSU has been on a tear, winning 11 of their last 14 games. Those three losses were to Cameron, by one at home; Southwestern which is currently ranked number one in the nation, by 10 on the road and Oklahoma City, which is 18-8 on the year. The ECU victory is unique because of the baring it will have at the end of the year when CSU, ECU, Langston and Panhandle will meet in the AIAW tournament. Those who have kept up with women's basketball will notice the absence of Southwestern and Oklahoma Baptist among others. That is becuase those schools are members of the NAIA's
women's association and not the AIAW. There is probably little difference in the competition levels of the two and the Bronchettes have defeated as many NAIA schools this year as AIAW. But the difference in organization could prove to be a big plus on CSU's side at the end of the year when their stiffest competition in the tournament will probably come from ECU. Despite the possible advantage of not having to face SWOSU or OBU, Keely would rather see the Oklahoma schools united in one organization.
