Gambling debt possible motive

CSU athlete's death ruled suicide

By Valli Covert Editor in Chief The state medical examiner's office has ruled Tuesday's death of a 21-year-old Central State Unversity football player a suicide, said Nikki Graham, chief investigator.

Kenneth Wayne Wright, a junior communications major from Hutchins, Texas, died of a .38-caliber revolver gunshot wound to the head, Capt.

Ron Cavin of the Edmond Police DepartKenneth ment said.

Cavin said Wright's roommate, Januriel Burrell, a senior at CSU, told police Wright was in a bedroom in the apartment the two shared when Burrell heard two or three clicks, then a gunshot at approximately 10 a.m.

Burrell went in and found Wright in bed with a gunshot wound to the right temple and called police within a minute of the incident, Cavin said.

Wright died before noon at Edmond Memorial Hospital.

Police said the only motive they have in the shooting is that they believe Wright picked up approximately $900 in grant money Monday then went to Dallas with some other CSU students and bet on a

basketball game.

Wright apparently became despondent after losing most of the money. No suicide note was found, Cavin said.

Cavin said he was not aware of any gambling problems at CSU or in Edmond.

Wright started as a wide receiver for the Bronchos during the 1987 season, but suffered a knee injury during the seventh game against Eastern New Mexico State Unversity and then Wright underwent surgery.

Wright did not play for the Bronchos last fall because of the injury.

"It was a complete shock for players and coaches alike," said head football coach Gary Howard.

"There was no indication Wright was having any financial or personal problems. There was no indication of any change in his personality.

"It is hard for coaches and players alike to accept (Wright's death)...when it comes out of nowhere. He was an integral part of our team.

"We (the team and coaches) met yesterday and will continue to

meet as long as there is a need to discuss what everyone is feeling," Howard said.

Mike Kirk, sports information director, said Wright was on a full

scholarship and appeared to be doing well in school.

A memorial service is planned for Wright from 1:40-5 p.m. today in the CSU Chapel.

Kirk said services will be at 2:30

p.m. Saturday at the Fourth Avenue Church of Christ in Dallas.

Wright is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harrison Wright of Hutchins.

Student seeks award

By Karl Knapp Student Writer On March 9 Randy Terrill will go to Dallas for an interview with prominent scholars and public officials who will determine if Terrill deserves the prestigious Harry S. Truman Scholarship.

According to Dr. Randall Jones, professor of political science, Terrill is one of the finalists competing for the scholarship.

To be nominated for the award a student must be pursuing a career in public service, have at least a 3.0 grade point average, and be a sophomore planning to pursue a bachelor's degree and admission to a graduate program leading to a career in public service.

The scholarship is the official memorial of Harry S. Truman. It gives the winner $7,000 a year for four years. The student must maintain an acceptable academic level and continue to pursue a career in public service.

There are 105 scholarships availible this year, and only two

recipients and one alternate will be selected from Oklahoma this year, said Jones, faculty representative to the Truman Foundation.

An Oklahoma student may attend school anywhere in the United States and be considered an eligible resident in the competition.

"So Randy is not only cornpeting against in-state students, but those attending college abroad," Jones said.

"Randy is a very outstanding young man, and he has a strong chance to win this scholarship.

There were three alternates over the past few years who came very close to winning," Jones said.

The last CSU winner was Ben Odom in 1979. He is now an attorney in Norman and chairman of the Cleveland County Democratic Party. Terrill said that he has talked to Odom and has learned a lot. He hopes that with Odom's information that he can be a success at the interview.

Terrill is a political scienceeconomics major. He was acitve on the CSU debate team and is

vice president of the College Republicans, president of Thatcher Hall, and student senate representative for the College of Liberal Arts. He works for Gov. Henry Bellmon as a staff intern in the press department, and holds a 4.0 grade point average for 55 credit hours.

Terrill will be interviewed in three segments: government service, philosophies of life, and essay. Terrill's essay is entitled "Climate Change and the Greenhouse Effect."

"I'm excited about the interview," Terrill said.

Terrill plans to graduate from CSU and pursue a graduate degree.

"I'm leaning towards the University of Oklahoma right now," Terrill said.

He will pursue a corporate law career and hopes to become a congressman for Oklahoma.

Terrill said he would like to thank Jones, Dr. James Caster, professor Leroy Crozier and the whole political science department.

Student rancher carries on qu family tradition

By Mike Sullivan Student Writer Those frigid sub-zero temperatures that rolled through Oklahoma in early February made for a couple of tense days for senior history major, Virgil Clark.

Clark, who lives with his wife and father on the family's 800-acre cattle ranch in eastern Logan County, spent several anxious days during the cold spell keeping a watchful eye on the 80 head of cattle.

"The cattle are real healthy, but we did worry about them because they were outside," Clark said, "We had to watch them pretty close."

Getting feed to the cattle during the arctic blast did not pose much of a problem for Clark and his father, but they did have trouble with the ponds freezing over.

The cattle rely on the ponds for their drinking water, and

Clark was forced to cut holes in the ice near the edges so the livestock could drink.

"What was amazing about cutting the holes in the ice is that many of the fish we have in the pond were so starved for oxygen that they jumped right out of the water," Clark said.

"They ended up just flopping around on the ice, but we kicked them all back in the water."

Clark's overtime hours during the cold spell further complicated his already busy schedule, which includes working full-time at Tinker Air Force Base, ranching and attending classes at CSU. "Hard work is all part of my family's tradition," Clark said. "My great-grandfather started farming here in 1933, and it's continued down through our family because of one thing: and that's hard work.

"You really have to compartmentalize your life.

Everything has to be scheduled and regimented," he added.

It is not all work and no play for Clark, as he restores

Mechanics anger reader To the editor:

How much would you expect to pay to have the battery cables on your car tightened?

I was charged $17.50 at a gas station at 15th and Broadway in Edmond.

Letter Many reputable service stations perform the task as a courtesy, free of charge. Others charge a nominal fee. Not this service station.

Not only was I forced to pay an astronomical amount, but I was laughed at while paying by the man who performed the work.

Here's the scenario: My car won't start; campus police send an officer to assist me; the officer adjusts the car's cables, but can't tighten them without a wrench; he offers to follow me to the station of my choice; we drive to the service station; the officer tells an at-

tendant my battery cables need tightened; the attendant asks me to tell the mechanic; after telling him, I walk inside to wait.

I ask the counter attendant if the station accepts checks. He tells me no. I then tell him I can pay cash, jokingly adding if the charge is not more than $7.

He asks where I bank and decides he will accept my check. I should have caught on then, but...

The mechanic pops in and tells me it will be about five more minutes on my car, he has hooked a charger to the battery. I assume he is performing a courtesy, free of charge, since he hadn't asked me if I wanted it charged.

The mechanic announces my car is ready and the counter attendant says the charge is $17.50. I thought he was joking and am relieved to see the mechanic smiling broadly at me.

Only the joke was on me. I was being charged an outrageous amount for a service that takes a

few minutes to perform. I could easily have done the job myself with the right size wrench.

I asked the mechanic how he could charge me that much and still have a smile on his face. He laughed then, (I guess he couldn't hold it back any longer), and told me he had cleaned the posts. He said he had done other things, but wouldn't say what they were except that he charged the battery.

I was told they had recenity purchased a new battery charger and it cost $10 just to hook it up to the battery. I also was told they were breaking the rules just to accept my chaeck. Finally I was told the store managers were responsible for my enourmous fee, not the mechanic.

I wonder if I got the screws put to me just like veryone else, or because I am a woman? I feel I've been abused by a company which considers customer satisfaction a primary goal.

Do police assist motorists To the editor:

I'm just curious what the campus police department means by telling your crime reporter they made "42 Motorist Assists?"

What is a motorist assist? One would think that in addition to giving citations, the police would help distressed motorists with broken down vehicles. My experience proves this to be a farse.

Letter

-

Late one afternoon, one of my first here on this campus, my car would not start. I knew noone who could help me because I had just transferred here from another university. But, my heart was lighter when I saw a building marked "Police."

As I walked in the building I found no friendly faces, only a

harsh looking woman who was apparently eating her dinner. She was unsympathetic to my plight.

The woman informed me that it was their policy not to give any motorist a jump start. "We get too many calls for that and it wears out our batteries," she said.

"We will loan you the cables, though."

With tears in my eyes I explained that I had no friends or family near, and my husband could not get off work until 9 p.m. (It was 5:30 p.m. at the time.)

"Just stand outside your car with the hood up and someone will stop and help you," she said.

Although I was leary of just what kind of stranger would stop -- with what kind of help -- I had no choice but to follow her directions. Unfortunately, it was an hour before anyone happened by my car. She was kind, but she knew no more about jump starting a car than I.

?

Finally, at nearly 7 p.m. I found help after throwing myself in front of the headlights of an oncoming truck. (By this point most of my lady-like dignity had been stripped away.) The driver was all too happy to help, as the policewoman had predicted.

However, I put the emphasis on "too happy."

My point is simply: Our campus police refusing to respond to calls requiring a jump start is not only ridiculous and unfair, but also dangerous. How can they claim to assist motorists?

I overheard one coed also laughing at their claim of 42 motorist assists in a week. She said the only assistance they give is to push stalled cars out of the way of other cars.

I feel for their batteries like the next person, but I fear for my safety more. Surely there is a solution.

"I used to think that only American students can get the awards. Now, however, the CSU's administration has recognized the needs of foreign students," said Khan, the first Pakistani student at CSU to receive the award. He graduated from CSU in 1986 with a bachelor's degree in accounting.

Dr. Avellano said, "These awards are considered most prestigious and may be granted only to our finest graduate students."

To apply for an award, the student must write a letter of application specifying interest, accompanied by a vita, transcripts, and letters of reference.

Applicants must be enrolled in at least six hours of graduate credit and be in good standing with the graduate college.

Staff Writer Graduate assistantship awards worth $2,150 each have been given to 12 Central State University students this semester, according to Dr. George Avellano, acting dean of the graduate college at CSU. The 12 students are: William Garner, Mei Tang, Tama Hatch, Mohammed Javed Khan, Judy Dicus, Catherine Vestal, William Campbell, Paul Brewer, Robert Burow, Morris Hart, Marilyn Talley and Ann Dee Lee. Garner and Mei Tang work for the College of Business; Hatch, Khan, Dicus, Vestal, Campbell and Talley for the College of Education; Brewer and Lee for the College of Liberal Arts; Burow for the College of Mathematics and Science; and

Hazardous acid spill results in firemen call

By Mei Pong

Staff Writer A bottle containing 2.5 liters of a hazardous corrrosive acid was spilled Feb. 15 behind Howell Hall, said Ron Williamson, assistant fire chief for Edmond.

A chemistry professor was bringing a bottle of sulphuric acid into Howell Hall when he accidently dropped the bottle, Williamson said. The acid spilled down the driveway, mixed with water and produced heat, steam and hazardous fumes.

"Sulphuric acid is a very strong corrosive and can erode shoes, clothing and even parts of a vehi-

cle upon contact," Williamson said.

Three officers and three firemen arrived on the scene after the fire department received a call at 2:11 p.m. After receiving advice from the chemistry department, the firefighters poured approximately 2 pounds of soda bicarbonate onto the acid to neutralize it.

The firemen then built a dike from sand to contain the neutralized acid, Williamson said.

The fire department later contacted the State Health Department and found the acid safe to dilute with water.

Spanish program offered Elementary and junior high teachers will have the opportunity to work toward an endorsement in Spanish and improve their Spanish skills during an intensive summer program offered by Central State University's department of foreign language.

According to Ann Phillips, chairwoman of the foreign language department, the foreign language department has received a Spanish grant for $23,000 from the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education through the Education for Economic Security Act Grant.

Through the program, 25 certified teachers will be selected by the department to participate this summer in a four-week institute, said Phillips. It will consist of methods of teaching foreign language, basic Spanish grammar and conversation, and the culture of Spanish-speaking peoples with an emphasis on Mexico.

"The purpose of the program is to train elementary and junior high teachers in Spanish so they may work toward an endorsement in Spanish and gain proficiency, which they will be able to apply in their classroom," Phillips said.

The Spanish grant will cover the

cost of the 25 chosen participants' tuition, room and board for 15 participants and ethnic foods for demonstrations.

The program at CSU will be followed by two allied programs of total immersion in Mexico, in which the participants are encouraged to be involved, Phillips said.

"Participants should be quite enriched in Spanish preparartion by the time they return to their classrooms in the fall," Phillips

said.

Phillips will administer the program and funds as well as supervise the project and teach the the culture course. She also will direct the CSU institute in Mexico, her eleventh.

At the conclusion of the fourweek course of graduate work, participants are urged to join CSU's two-week institute in Guadalajara, Mexico, or the twoweek institute for teachers of the gifted and talented, Phillips said.

250 expected to attend

Education conference scheduled

By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer

About 250 educators are expected to participate in the annual Multicultural Education Conference March 3-4 at the University Center, according to Dr. April Haulman, bilingual education program coordinator at the curriculum and instruction department at Central State University.

This year's conference theme is "The Effective Multicultural School: Equity and Excellence."

The conference has been held at CSU the last five years and was founded in 1974.

The conference is sponsored by CSU's College of Education and Oklahoma City public schools, Haulman said, who is also a member of the conference organizing committee.

She said 18 educators, including two from CSU, will speak on issues dealing with multicultural education.

The keynote speaker, Dr. Leonard Olguin, associate pro-

fessor of education at California State University-Long Beach, will discuss the importance of each student's cultural backgroud and how to develop strategies and techniques that account for the student's background in the classroom.

Dr. Eleanor Maddox, assistant professor of reading instruction at CSU, will speak on a topic titled "The Whole Language Approach" about how language can help students to become better readers and writers.

"Mohawks, Alligators, Mesomorphs, Bananas, and Pocket Protectors" is the title of a topic that will be discussed by Dr. Steven Pratt, assistant professor of oral communication department at CSU. The topic will focus upon nonverbal behavior of students, such as, hair style, body shape, clothing and accessories, that impede successful intercultural communication.

According to Pratt, teachers

Matmen off to finals

By John Lukehart Student Writer

Central State wrapped up its d ual season on the road last eekend with a pair of thumpings over Fort Hays State and Chadron State.

CSU won four of the six contested matches against Fort Hays, while dropping one and drawing in another. CSU picked up the remaining four matches by forfeit in route to posting a 42-8 victory.

Against Chadron State the Bronchos continued to whip their opponents. CSU had little trouble with Chadron State, as they went 8-1 in contested matches and picked up the remaining match by forfeit.

CSU ended its dual season with an 11 match winning streak to finish at 12-3. Broncho wrestling coach David James commented about his grapplers strong finish.

"We're wrestling pretty good right now", he said. "I think we turned it around at the Southern California Invitational back in December, once we got senior Marc Hull back in there."

Hull, who was ineligible during the first semester, is a two-time All-American and the 1987 NAIA national champion at 134 pounds.

Since returning to the team Hull has posted a 19-1-1 record.

"He brings a lot to the team besides his record," James said.

"His leadership and spunk are good for the others."

CSU has nine grapplers who have qualified for nationals including three All-Americans and five first-time qualifiers.

Two-time national champion Johnny Nirnmo and two-time AllAmericans Shawn Fleming and Marc Hull will lead the Bronchos when they travel to Jamestown,

With the help of 41 free throws, the Lady Broncho basketball team broke the school's scoring record Monday in the Broncho Field House, defeating Texas A&I 105-96 in overtime.

The Lady Bronchos outscored the Lady Javelinas 21-12 in the overtime, and broke the 100-point barrier for the first time in the school's history. The old record had been 95 points, held by both the 1982 and 1984 Lady Broncho teams.

Six Texas A&I players fouled out after referees called 71 fouls, leaving the Lady Javelinas short handed at the end of of the game.

"Most of their starters fouled out and then we wore their substitutes down," said basketball coach John Keely. "Once their post people fouled out we knew we could drive the lane on them."

The Bronchos pumped in 12 three-point shots, in keeping pace with their nation-leading average of 10.3 three-point shots per game.

"I thought this game typified our style of play pretty well," said basketball coach Jim Seward.

"We wore them down tonight, you could see they were tired at the end.

"This is a talented team we beat

Junior guard Shawn Williams led the Lady Bronchos with 24 points, and senior forward Willie Crawford added 23, while Lady Javelina guard Chandra Williams ended with a game high 28.

Crawford and junior forward Albertine Jennings powered the physical inside game for CSU, with Jennings scoring 11 of her 17 points in the overtime.

Jennings went 9-of-12 from the free-throw line, including a clutch shot that sent the Bronchos ahead by two points with seven seconds left in regulation.

"We felt we could work it in on them," Jennnings said. "So many of their big people were fouled out that we were looking for the inside shot."

The Lady Bronchos will host the Oklahoma Christian Lady Eagles at 6 p.m. tonight in the Bronchgo Field House, in what will be the last home game of the season for CSU.

vault.

Senior Mark Davis qualified in the 400-meter and junior Eugene Spears qualified in the 600-yard run. The CSU mile, two-mile and distance medley relay teams might also qualify, but the final qualifiers in the relays were not posted at press time.

"Our mile relay and two-mile relay teams both have a chance of placing," said track coach Paul Parent. "Really, everybody we're taking has a legitimate chance of placing if they perform the way they're capable of."

Baseball: 1 p.m. Saturday vs. Missouri Southern at the Broncho baseball diamond

tonight; they beat us bad the first time," Seward said. "And don't forget, they're fighting for the league championship."

Texas A&I, who started the contest in second place a game behind conference leader Angelo State, dropped to 9-4 in the conference and 19-7 overall while the Bronchos upped their record to 5-8 and 9-16 overall.

Three Bronchos scored 20 or more points as junior forward Kelvin McCain finished with 27, and senior forward Scott Streller added 26 points and grabbed 12 rebounds.

Freshman guard Scott de la Garza scored 24 points after going 6-of-11 from three-point range.

Central State's club soccer team lost 8-6 to Oklahoma State Saturday at the Oklahoma Indoor Sports Complex.

OSU also competes on the club level, and soccer coach Jahal Daneshfar thought his team had a chance to beat the team from Stillwater.

"We could have beat them, our men just didn't play well together," Daneshfar said.

"We didn't substitute properly, and in indoor soceer you must take yourself out when your'e tired."

CSU ended the preseason 0-3, and will open up the regular season at 9 p.m. Saturday in the Oklahoma Indoor Sports Complex against last year's champion, Oklahoma City University.

CSU will play its last home game of the season tonight at 8 p.m. when Oklahoma Christian invades the Broncho Field House for what figures to be a fast-paced affair.

"It's gonna be a track meet," Seward said. "They're gonna run, and we're gonna run."

The women's volleyball team advanced to the finals of

a tournament last Saturday in Tulsa, before losing to TU in the finals 15-11, 15-12.

CSU beat Oral Roberts 15-6, 15-7 and Missouri Southern 15-10, 15-7 to get to the finals.

"We looked real good considering it was our first cornpetition since last November," said assistant volleyball coach Burt Luallen. "The girls have been practicing real hard, so this will give them a breath of fresh air."

CSU will return to action April 1 for another tournament in Tulsa.

Preseason rankings are out for NAIA softball, and the Lady Bronchos are ranked 16th in the nation. Oklahoma City University, which also plays in District 9 is ranked third behind Pacific Lutheran (WA) and West Florida.

Northeastern Oklahoma received eight points in the poll and is ranked 37th, while Mount Mercy (Iowa) is ranked 24th.

The Bronchos are on the verge of setting an NCAA Division II record for threepoint attempts in a single season. CSU has tried 691 three-pointers through 25 games and is 35 from breaking the record of 725.

CSU has retained its lead in the NCAA II for threepointers made per game with 10.3. The Bronchos are second behind Division III school Redlands, Calif. for the lead among all NCAA schools.

CSU driver school assists handicapped

By Bretta Barritt Student Writer Central State University is home to the South Central Safety Education Institute, the only place in the region to teach handicapped people to drive, according to Assistant Professor Carl Breazeale.

Breazeale said 680 handicapped students have gone through the program.

Instructor John McGivern, who teaches driver education for the handicapped this semester, said that more than '90 percent of students enrolled complete the course and receive licenses.

The class began Feb. 20, and 11 students are enrolled, McGivern said.

The school offers four classes a year, with two in the summer. The four-week classes are from 1-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

McGivern said more class time is devoted to actual street driving

in the handicapped class than in high school driver education_ classes.

In 1976 the Safety Education Institute received a grant to purchase a specially equipped van for people with extreme physical limitations. However, a grant has been approved to purchase a new van, and the new van should be available for the June session, McGivern said.

Grants for handicapped people interested in enrolling in a driving class are available through the Department of Human Services, Breazeale said.
