New bacteria strain may be untreatable

By Dayna Poarch

Staff Writer Common bacteria that cause pneumonia, infections and other diseases are evolving into strains that may eventually become

untreatable unless new antibiotics are developed, said Alexander Tomasz from Rockefeller University in New York City.

Tomasz, an authority on bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics, spoke of this possible development at last week' s meeting of

the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Dr. Riaz Ahmad, a University of Central Oklahoma biology professor, said that the possibility of resistant bacteria developing is a real threat.

Bacteria have become resistant to medications available now, he said.

Ahmad cited two examples of bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics. The people who became ill after eating at Jack in the Box restaurants had bacteria in their systems that had developed a resistance to antibiotics, he said.

In Illinois, dairy products containing bacteria also became resistant to antibiotics and heat, he said.

Many antibiotics have lost their effectiveness, he said.

Vancomycin is an antibiotic used to treat certain strains of pneumonia, but if bacteria continue to develop resistant strains, it will become almost useless, he said.

"They (bacteria) will have mutated, so they can survive in the presence of it (vancomycin)," said Dr. Peggy Guthrie, a UCO biology professor.

People who take antibiotics indiscriminately are providing a different environment for bacteria. The bacteria that survives the medication will probably be the result of a mutation, Guthrie said.

Some people who are susceptible to untreatable bacteria are hospital patients.

These people usually develop enterococcal infections, a digestive tract bacteria, Ahmad said.

Hospital patients are treated for an illness, but their body can develop another kind of bacteria that can become resistant to antibiotics, Ahmad said.

Certain strains of enterococcus have already become resistant to vancomycin and many other antibiotics, an article in The Daily Oklahoman reported.

If pharmaceutical companies continue research, "we will be able to continue treating these conditions," Ahmad said.

Dr. Mitchell Cohen from the Centers for Disease Control said that it will take at least five to seven years for any new drugs to be developed that can treat the bacteria.

"We still have antibiotics that are working," Ahmad said.

Political correctness useful only for politicians

-

E•fl Ft HUH HUH ) THAT'S CORRECT.

T

here's been an increased use of the term "political correctness" in the last few years. So much so that it has become almost a parody of itself.

But what does the term really mean, anyway and why is it so necessary we all understand it?

Is it, as some liberal journalists claim, a form of censorship? A means by which society can make those who are perceived as a threat or embarrassment to them just "go away?"

Or, as some members of the right-wing fundamentalist camp charge, does politically correctness merely pander to those segments of society that only want special treatment, even though they deserve none, while giving the press an excuse to bash conservatives?

The phrase has invaded every aspect of society, from crime to sexual preference to race to religion to the physically and mentally disabled.

An information sheet prepared by the American Association of State Colleges and Universities offers a "person first" approach to those with disabilities.

No longer, for instance, can a blind woman be referred to as a blind woman. She must now be referred to, the AASCU states, as a "woman who is blind or visually impaired."

And the appropriate phrasing is "a person who uses a wheelchair," rather than wheelchair-bound, or wheelchair-restricted, even though anyone can use a wheelchair, if they so choose, without necessarily being depended on one for getting around.

The truly PC-aware now know that the term "black" is giving way to the more correct "African-American," and it will be correct regardless of the ancestry of any particular black person.

Perhaps the politically correct usage of political correctness is more obvious than some folks imagine. Indeed, the phrase itself may contain its own true meaning — politically correct.

Politically correct phrases, terms and names only make sense if applied by those in politics whose baby-kissing aspirations make them so sensitive to each prospective voter that they can't risk offending anyone on any level for any reason.

The rest of us need to worry less about becoming politically correct and concentrate on becoming more politically aware so that we know and understand that's what the politicians are doing.

really do not feel that I have to respond to H.L. Shultz's letter protesting my gun control letter in which he made a complete fool out of himself and showed how little he knows about the issue. Throughout the letter, he wrote that the Brady Bill provides a 15-day waiting period before purchasing handguns. Well Mr. Shultz, if you would bother to come out of your room and try to gather the facts, you would find that the Brady Bill has already been passed by Congress, and it

only provides for a four-day national waiting period, not 15 as you wrote.

As far as his advice for me to stay inside my room, I would like to know what advice does he have for the school students of Tulsa— stay inside your classroom, never go to Wendy's? If you had taken your time to read my letter more carefully, you would have found that I have never called for banning guns. In fact, I am a supporter of the right to bear arms.

What I have called for is a national

consensus to fight crime, which can prevent incidents like that in Hugo. If you think fighting crime and saving lives are too expensive, I have nothing more to add.

To Mr. Shultz and his friends, I have only one thing to say—try to be a little more broad-minded.

When you don't know the facts, all you can do is write nasty notes.

It's not a crime to own a gun, it's a crime to carry an empty brain.

Chairman charges Vista with neglect

W

hy were three journalism faculty members mentioned by name in the recent story on the faculty art show, when none of the other exhibitors were?

This reporting and editing shows neglect of journalistic standards of accuracy and fairness, and an inadequate appreciation of the role of The Vista on campus. You are a student newspaper, covering the

campus. You are not the voice, nor the public relations tool, of the journalism department, yet your report gave the appearance of giving us special treatment. In addition, you erred in reporting and in editing by calling it the "Art Faculty Show." Instead, it is the "Faculty Art Show" or the "Faculty Exhibit." The reason journalism professors take part is that the art department opens the

exhibit to faculty teaching in art and related areas. The art and journalism departments work closely together in resources, instruction and curriculum, especially in photography and advertising. In some instances, faculty from other departments have also exhibited.

Paul Eddy Student Writer With economics being what they are, students at the University of Central Oklahoma may want to check out the services provided by the Consumer Credit Counseling Service of Central Oklahoma.

Problems ranging from medical expenses to credit card mismanagement cause many people to seek economic help, said Frank Kelley, vice-president of CCCS in Oklahoma.

CCCS does three major things to help with economic problems. Education at colleges, high schools and businesses is done by way of seminars ranging from one to eight hours. One on one counseling to set up a personal budget is available.

Debt management is the most in depth of the steps.

CCCS negotiates a mutually satisfactory payment plan between creditors and the debtor. The payments are based on the debtor' s income and expenses, this is determined via an information sheet which is filled out by the debtor.

Audit workshop focuses on computer-related auditing

By Anthony Tompkins Staff Writer The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) will hold a seminar titled "The Integrated Audit Workshop" March 7 and 8 at the Metro Tech Business Conference Center in Oklahoma City.

Topics for the conference include the integrated audit concept, understanding controls, computerrelated control identification, application controls and other computer related auditing operations, said Nancy Bowman, Oklahoma City chapter IIA. The seminar will be hosted by Gordon Smith, president of Canaudit Inc, and is sponsored by the Oklahoma Chapter of the IIA.

Smith has performed as an auditing consultant for the Office of the Controller of the Currency, First Commerce Bank, Wells Fargo Bank and many other internationally known organizations.

Internal auditors act as the eyes of management. They keep track of the activities of departments within corporations in order to ensure against fraud and misapplication of tasks, said Bowman.

"I think the seminar very good and is important to business," said Bowman. "Traditional auditing methods tend to work around or overlook computer entirely," she said.

"The seminar will introduce the necessary changes in the internal

control structure of a business as related to the computer environment, as opposed to traditional manual auditing methods," said Dr. Robert Terrell, associate professor of accounting at the University of Central Oklahoma.

The seminar counts for 15 hours of continuing professional development or continuing education credit, said Bowman.

Reservations to attend the seminar must be made by March 2.

The cost for IIA members is $275 and for non members, $325. For information or reservations, contact Robert Hamric at (405) 2702262 or Kerr-McGee Corporation P.O. Box 25861, MT-1506 Oklahoma City, OK 73125.

Award winning graphic artist to visit OKC -

by Carol Cole Mills Guest Writer

McRay Magleby rejected going to the "big city" after graduation like many of his contemporaries.

Instead, he stayed in Utah to enjoy his beloved outdoor lifestyle and made a name for himself as one of the nation's top graphic design teachers.

tunity to hear Magleby speak at the Graphic Communications Society (GCS) meeting Feb. 24 at the City Arts Center on the Oklahoma City state fairgrounds.

"For a long time I thought I'd made a big mistake," said Magleby. "All my friends had moved to New York, and their work was starting to appear in the national magazines."

Magleby made his start in Salt Lake City design studios. In 1969, he was hired as art director for

Brigham Young University (BYU.) "I think had I not gotten the job at BYU, I probably would have ended up in one of the major cities after all."

Magleby and his staff at BYU Graphics have designed hundreds of award-winning posters, brochures and other publications for the university.

His posters have been sold in galleries, featured in books and reproduced as greeting cards.

Magleby's 1986 "Wave of Peace" poster was voted "Most Memorable Poster in the World" by a group of design professionals and officials from 40 countries.

He was named "Designer of the Decade" by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education.

As a teacher, Magleby found reward in seeing his students go out into the workplace and do well, then send their work back. He has been a design professor since 1970

This is because the needs of the modern population of college goers have changed, and continue to change, in a world that is hurriedly recreating itself.

The university system that was brought into being in the middle ages, and matured into the patrician ideal of what we have come to think of as the "traditional" college experience, is quickly falling by the wayside.

Traditionally, parents sent their children to college and would bankroll their sojourn there as simply an extension of the parental obligation and duty to raise and educate those children.

But with the influx of older students with established livelihoods and families into universities, the needs of the student population is changing, and in order to survive, universities will have to change

also.

But how do you go about aligning the needs of a student population who has no time to spare but needs to be educated, or re-educated to fill the demands of a fast paced and ever - changing world without compromising the things that educators need to require in order for the student to become educated and not merely trained?

We will not continue to be a nation of consequence if we fail to be a nation of thinkers. The danger is the prospect of settling for sloppy education in a population with no time for contemplation.

I'll bet that now you thought I was going to give you the answer, but I don't have the answer to this one. The answer will have to be hammered out between the parties involved.

And hammered it must be be-

"I don't like to leave my permit in the window because it is easy to break into my car," appealed student Sandra Maihos. "I forgot to put it back in," she explained.

Maihos was placed on the 60 day probation.

Other appeals reviewed by the board were parking in no-parking zones, parking in a faculty/staff area without the proper permit, pull -through/back-in violations which point the vehicle toward a one-way aisle and incorrect park-

ing at the end of aisle where there is no legal area.

Appeals for parking in a nonauthorized lot and a meter violation was also considered by the appeals board.

"I had 12 minutes left on the meter when I returned to my vehicle," said Katherine Sullivan in her written appeal. "I do not wish to pay a fine," she said. Sullivan's wish was granted and her fine dismissed.

PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) — An activist charged with murdering an abortion doctor no longer faces the electric chair, but he cannot plead insanity.

Prosecutors agreed that they will not ask the jury to sentence Michael F. Griffin to die. In exchange, the defense agreed to allow testimony from a jail guard who overheard a conversation between Griffin and his wife, Patricia, the day after Dr. David Gunn was shot.

Prosecutors contacted Gunn's family before agreeing to drop

their plan to seek the death penalty. The victim's son, David Gunn Jr. of Birmingham, Ala., opposes the death penalty and other relatives left the decision to prosecutors, said Circuit Judge John Parnham.

Also Monday, Parnham said he would not allow the insanity defense because Griffin refused to be examined by a prosecution psychologist and the defense had no plans to call mental health experts. An insanity defense requires expert testimony, he said.

Boat carrying 30 Haitians capsizes MIAMI (AP) — At least 30 Haitians trying to reach Florida from the Bahamas are believed to have died when their small boat capsized. Some were eaten by sharks.

"We found a baby floating in the water and what looked like a teen-age boy, but the sharks had got the meat off the legs and just left the bones hanging there," fishing guide Joe Sawyer said Monday.

Bahamian authorities searching the shark-infested waters off Great Abaco Island found three more survivors, bringing the total to six. Officials said they didn't expect to find any more survivors.

Sawyer found the 23-foot boat, which had carried about 40 Haitians, capsized Sunday about three miles offshore and about 200 miles from Florida.

In other actions today, the justices: —Refused to order the FBI to release its files on the 1975 disappearance of former Teamsters union president Jimmy Hoffa.

VALLEY STREAM, N.Y. (AP) — A woman who claimed she was robbed at a cash machine said police coerced her into recanting the story by throwing hot water and lit cigarettes at her during an eight-hour interrogation.

Police, however, deny Maryrose Posner was bullied.

Mrs. Posner told police last week that a laughing man put a gun to her two-year-old's head and forced her to withdraw $200 from a cash machine. Police later said she made up the story to get attention from her husband.

"Why would I make that up?" she told Long Island Newsday in an interview published Sunday.

She's been charged with making a false report.

Detective Fred Eno, a Nassau County police spokesman, on Monday called Posner's claim "absolutely ludicrous" and declined further comment.

The Posners have an unlisted phone number and couldn't be reached for comment.

Daneshfar said all students have to file some form of tax statement, whether or not they have ever been employed in this country.

"We want the students to know their tax obligations to the American government," he said.

"Some countries have tax treaties with the U.S., so their own students are exempted," Daneshfar said.

He said by filing a tax return students will know whether they owe or qualify for a refund.

MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — A 15-year-old cheerleader and honors student shot her father to death and her mother and brother burned the body before chopping it into pieces, police said.

Sarah Butler was arrested Monday at school and charged with murder. Donna Butler, 36, and Tim Jr., 14, were arrested and charged with accountability for murder and obstruction of justice.

"They had all decided they would be better off without this guy," Missoula County Attorney Robert L. Deschamps said.

Sarah Butler shot Tim Butler, 40, with a borrowed .22caliber rifle as he slept on Jan. 15, police said.

Butler's wife and son allegedly put his body on a bonfire, chopped up the partially burned corpse and put it into a wood stove, then disposed of the ashes in an outhouse.

Two younger sons were taken into state custody.

Neighbors who loaned Sarah Butler a rifle told police they suspected she used it to kill her father.

Marquez just signed a television

series with MTV productions. He uses characters and strange insights, taps into his dysfunctional family and finds comedy in strange words and sentences.

Kathy Chappell, who was recently named 1994 Star Search comedy champion, also will perform.

KAPLAN RULES

UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE PUTTING TOO MANY RETIREMENT DOLLARS. very year, a lot of people make a

Fj huge mistake on their taxes. They don't take advantage of tax deferral and wind up sending Uncle Sam money they could be saving for retirement.

Fortunately, that's a mistake you can easily avoid with TIAA-CREF SRAs. SRAs not only ease your current taxbite, they offer a remarkably easy way to build retirement income—especially for the "extras" that your regular pension and Social Security benefits may not cover. Because your contributions are made in before-tax dollars, you pay less taxes now. And since all earnings on your SRA are tax-deferred as well, the

money you don't send to Washington works even harder for you. Down the road, that can make a dramatic difference in your quality of life.

What else makes SRAs so special?

A range of allocation choices—from the guaranteed security of TIAA to the diversified investment accounts of CREF's variable annuity—all backed by the nation's number one retirement system.

Why write off the chance for a more rewarding retirement? Call today and learn more about how TIAA-CREF SRAs can help you enjoy many happy returns.

UCO wrestlers grab fifth straight regional title

By Jimmy Hyde

Staff Writer

Breezing through their fifth straight NCAA II Midwest Regional Championship Friday, the Broncho mat men now prepare for a run at their third consecutive NCAA II national title.

The University of Central Oklahoma crowned eight individual champions and two runners-up at the one-day tournament held in Duluth, Minn. The Bronchos qualified all 10 wrestlers for the national tournament to be held

March 4-5, in Pueblo, Colo.

UCO finished the tournament with 125.5 points, doubling that of runner-up Nebraska-Kearney 62.3. Host Minnesota-Duluth finished with 53.4 followed by Southern Illinois-Edwardsville 42.75, Northeast Missouri State 34.6 and Central Misssouri State with 1.75.

"We've put ourselves in good position for the national tournament, and that's what we came here to do," said Head Coach David James, who was named Midwest Region Coach of the Year.

Winning individual titles for UCO were Randy Zellner at 118

Chad Drake

pounds, Ryan Martin, 134, Mark Cunningham, 150, Wes White, 158, Keith Cunningham, 167,

Chad Drake, 177, Chad Humphrey, 190 and heavyweight Robert Washington.

Brian Melchiori at 126 pounds and Jerry Best at 142 both lost close decisions 6-4 and 11-9, respectively, to finish second. Best lost on a takedown in the final three seconds of the match.

Drake, coming into the tournament 7-14 at four different weights, was the surprise of the tournament, upsetting the No.1seed Tom Chernich of SIUE 8-7 in the semifinals and the No. 2seed Irving Ward of NMSU 5-3 in the finals at 177 pounds.

Two-time defending national champion Keith Cunningham and Randy Zellner, both seniors, pulled in their third regional championships with relative ease.

"We're happy with what we have accomplished here, but it's not over yet. We've still got to go to Pueblo and perform there," said James.

The Bronchos posted a 24-2 record in the tournament with those two loses coming in the finals.

UCO had 15 bonus-point wins on the day and had a 71-9 takedown advantage.

Bronchos slip past league-leading Angelo State 116-110 Stan Wagnon Student Writer

The late coaching great Jim Valvano once said, "Don't give up, don't ever give up."

Central Oklahoma took his message to heart Monday as the Bronchos rallied to upset Lone Star Conference leader Angelo State 116-110 in overtime inside Hamilton Field House.

UCO trailed all but 8:05 of the 40 minutes in regulation, but when the final buzzer sounded the

Bronchos had tied the game at 9999.

With 2:54 remaining, ASU held its largest lead of the game, 90-81, and the Rams still led by eight points, 92-84, at the 2:22 mark.

Zoderick Green then ignited the UCO rally with a 3-point bomb from the corner. Johnny Tyson put the Bronchos ahead, 99-97, with a traditional 3-point play before ASU's Ed Wheeler tied the game with 2.5 seconds to go.

Darrell Gibson nailed a 3pointer to open the overtime period to start a 9-0 Broncho scoring

run. Gibson added a steal and thunderous slam dunk at the 3:27 mark to cap off the run and give the Bronchos a commanding 10899 lead.

UCO, now 17-8 overall and 7-5 in the league, will close the regular season Saturday at Cameron. The Bronchos will host a first-round game of the LSC Post-season Tournament on March 1.

"I cannot say enough about our team's effort," said Coach Jim Seward. "We weren't catching many breaks, but the guys played together as a team."

After Saturday night's game at Hamilton Field House UCO junior guard, Zoderick Green calmly said "We're the sleeping giant and tonight we woke up. So everyone had better be ready for us."

Someone should have warned Abilene Christian University as the "sleeping giant" firmly crushed the Wildcats 124-96 behind a three-point bombardment and a blistering first half shooting performance.

basically were able to play our game and do what we wanted to do with very little exception."

Five players scored in double figures for the Bronchos with Green and Gibson leading the way with 26 and 25 respectively.

UCO's leading scorer, junior forward Junie Sanders, chipped in with 22 points and 11 rebounds.

Gibson led all players with 13 boards. UCO out-rebounded ACU 62-42 including 21 offensive boards.

"I think we rebounded as well as we have all year," said Seward.

The Bronchos never trailed in the entire game and lead by as much as 30 points.

"My shot is starting to feel good to me again," said Green. "I try to go out and hit a few threes and hopefully get a spurt going."

The Bronchos shot 54 percent from the field in the first half, including a 53 percent outing (815) from three-point range. The Bronchos raced to a 61-44 lead at the break and never looked back.
