Central State University, Edmond, Oklahoma

Brisch inaugurated By Laurel Anquoe

Student Writer Dr. Hans Brisch was officially inaugurated as the fourth chancellor for the Oklahoma State System of Higher Education Sunday at the First Presbyterian Church in Oklahoma City. The investiture was witnessed by a capacity crowd of academic and political dignitaries, faculty, students, and friends of the chancellor. Gov. Henry Bellmon, U.S. Sen. David Boren, Lt. Gov. Robert S. Kerr, and the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education were participants in the installation ceremonies. In his address, Brisch said Oklahoma and the nation as a whole faces the challenges of leading a quality life and competing in a global economy and the key to success in these goals is education.

"We must increase the funding base for higher education," he said, and added that Oklahoma should boost funding to the level of its peer colleges. Jeff Shilling, chairman of the regents' student advisory board and Central State University student, welcomed the new chancellor on behalf of the state's college and university students. He said Brisch has already demonstrated a cooperative, sharing attitude and real concern for the betterment of students in Oklahoma. According to his biography, Brisch was born in Germany in 1940 and immigrated to the United States at the age of 17. He earned his bachelor's degree in political science at Park College and his master's and doctorate degree from the University of Kansas. Academic honors awarded

Brisch include Fulbright-Hays Fellow, University of Alabama Research Grant Award, Venice Seminar Fellow, Public Administration Fellow, Seminar Fellow-University of Belgrade, and NDFL Title VI Fellow. As an academic administrator, Brisch has served as assistant director and associate director for academic affairs for the Illinois Board of Higher Education. He has also held the post of assistant vice-president for academic affairs, executive assistant to the president, and associate executive vice-president at the University of Nebraska. He also has experience in state government as former chief-ofstaff for Gov. Kay Orr of Nebraska, a post he served for two years. Brisch is married to Dr. Margaret Gatton Brisch and has three children.

Higher ed remedy needed, Boren says By Laurel Anquoe

Student Writer U.S. Sen. David Boren, DOkla., delivered a stinging assessment of the state of higher education in Oklahoma and called for bold measures to remedy the situation. The speech was presented Feb. 19 at the inauguration of Dr. Hans Brisch as the chancellor for the Oklahoma State System of Higher Education. Boren said that Oklahoma must reconsider its priorities and described the turmoil at the University of Oklahoma as an embarrassment that may prove to be good because it will refocus priorities.

sale of land and business assets to foreign investors. Boren said the key to succeed in the international market lies in quality higher education. He cited increasing academic standards and new emphasis in the areas of foreign languages and graduate education as means to achieve success economically as a state and a nation. Higher education should not depend solely on annual appropriations and more stress should be placed on endowments, as permanence in funding would attract professors and students to the state, he said.

"The future of our state depends not in being number one in athletics, but by being first in academic achievement," Boren said, adding that emphasis should be placed where it belongs—in education.

Boren also suggested scholarships for future teachers and rechanneling general obligation bonds such as those used to fund highway projects to support educational improvements.

Oklahoma's senior U.S. senator said the United States is in a rapid decline as a world economic power that has shifted from its position as a creditor nation to a debtor nation.

The senator called Chancellor Hans Brisch "an outstanding choice" and pledged his support of the new education leader's efforts.

He said the U.S. has half the proportion of world wealth it had 40 years ago because of significant

"Nowhere is it written that Oklahoma schools can't be the best," he said.

Staff Writer The misdemeanor assault case against Dr. William D. Parker, Central State University's director of criminal justice studies and assistant dean of liberal arts was continued last week to 9 a.m. March 23 at the Oklahoma District Courthouse. Parker entered a plea of not guilty at the Feb. 2 arraignment to misdemeanor assault charges of choking his former girlfriend, CSU graduate, Edwinna Sue Madden. "Parker's attorney, D.C. Thomas, filed the continuance because he had not had time to properly prepare for the case," Assistant District Attorney Kerry Kelly said. Kelly said she could not cornment on the case since it was still being investigated, but added that there had not been any plea bargaining. Thomas was unable to be reached for comment. Madden, 26, of Edmond, filed assault charges Jan. 31. Madden, an assistant for constituent affairs in Gov. Henry Bellmon's office, told police Parker forced his way into her Edmond apartment around 8 p.m. Jan. 3, apparently intoxicated, and choked her until "she thought she was going to die," the police report states. Gary Wayne Hoppis, 39, of Del City, was on the telephone with Madden before and during the incident and called police, according to the police report. Edmond Police Captain Ron Cavin said Hoppis is a friend of Madden. Madden said she broke free from Parker and left her apartment, but returned later. Edmond police arrived about this time, the report states.

Cavin said Madden came back to the apartment complex to see if Parker's car was still there. When she saw that it was gone, she returned to her aparment, Cavin said. After the police left, the report states that Parker "started calling her," but Madden hung up on him. Cavin said Madden called Ed-

mond Mayor Carl Reherman, an assistant professor of political science at CSU, for help after Parker came back to Madden's apartment a second time, and Reherman talked Parker into leaving. "The young lady had called him (Reherman) for assistance," Please see Parker on page 8.

Tooth bonding helps self-confidence By Dan! DeVault

Guest Writer Composite resin tooth bonding has changed the way I feel about my teeth and my self confidence. The process of tooth bonding allows us to cover our stained teeth, rebuild chipped or cracked teeth, close front gaps and build up old eroded teeth. Bonding is a process by which tooth-colored plastic is painted onto the front surface of stained or damaged teeth. The plastic is hardened under a special "visible" light, and finally the coating is shaped and polished.

The life expectancy of restorations of this nature varies, so discuss treatments thoroughly with your dentist.

Good atmosphere, they say

Foreign students sav CSU less expensive By Mei Pong Staff Writer Why do foreign students decide to come to Central State University, and how can the university maintain its' foreign students? Many say the low cost of tuition is the main reason they chose to attend CSU. Others said that it is because their friends recommended the school. Some just want to attend a school far away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Most students, however, agreed that the non-resident tuition and fees should not be subjected to further increase and that more assistance in the form of assistantships and scholarships should be made available to foreign students to maintain their numbers. "I came to CSU because the cost of tuition is reasonable and because I prefer a smaller school which can offer individual attention to its' students," said Cheong Fu, a freshman from Hong Kong. Lucy Lee, a senior accounting major from Republic of China, said she chose to attend this school on her brother's recommendation and because the cost of tuition is inexpensive. Others, however, have a different reason for coming to CSU besides the low cost of tuition. "I

came to CSU because the business school is good," said Ananta Raj Pandey, a sophomore economics major from Nepal. "I decided to attend CSU because it is situated in a suburban area, far away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Coming to America also gives me an opportunity to learn more about the culture," said Quanita Lam, a graduate psychology student from Hong Kong. Imran Allam, a junior marketing major from Pakistan said "CSU is very well known in my country. I came to CSU because I received a prompt reply from the university, and also because it accepted most of the credits that I transferred." Simon Wong, a junior marketing major from Malaysia, has a far different reason for attending CSU. "I decided to attend CSU because my brothers and sisters are nearby," he said. Most of the students said that the current rate of increase in the tuition and fees will indeed deter a lot of foreign students from applying to CSU since the low cost of tuition is the university's best selling point. "Our tuition is already three times higher than the in-state tui-

Student magazine almost completed By Dyann Dolan Student Writer The last week of April, CSU students will be able to obtain a copy of MISC. magazine, the publication of the magazine editing II class. Students in the class are responsible for compiling the magazine. Faculty member Lu Hollander directs students acting as department heads. They are: managing editor Keith Purtell; editorial editor Linda Day; design and graphic editor James Stratton; public relations manager Dee Reisman; photo editor Randy Davis; advertising manager Blake Kelso; pasteup coordinators Kellie Clark and Leslie Brown; and typesetting coordinator Tina Davis. MISC. is a Central State University magazine. The forthcoming issue will have about 20 stories of general interests such as lifestyles, entertainment, organizations and an article titled, "Why CSU?," which explains what the university has to offer, said Hollander. "The purpose of MISC. is to give the journalism students in the magazine class the opportunity to develop skills needed to produce a real magazine," Purtell said. Students can look through MISC. and see courses they might not have known about, other students and profiles of past students and their successes. The magazine editing II class can be beneficial to students who are looking to pursue a career in magazines.

"It is impressive for potential employers and looks good on a resume," Day said. As for Hollander's contributions, Day feels that she is creative, and her method of teaching comes across in the end result. MISC. magazine is free and is mailed out to alumni and department heads. Students will be able to obtain the magazines around campus.

tion. Further increase in the tuition and fees will only encourage students to transfer to other comparative universities in other states," said Allam. Pandey concurred with the statement and said that the foreign students will clearly prefer to attend schools up north if the tuition and fees continue to increase. Dr. Ronald Paddack, interna-

tional student adviser, said foreign students make up approximately 6.5 percent of the total student population in CSU. "This is a significant amount and an ideal situation," he said. Paddack hopes that the increase in tuition and fees will not deter foreign students from applying to CSU. He said that in spite of the increase in tuition and fees, CSU

is still cheaper than other comparable universities. The country with the largest number of foreign students is Malaysia with 169, Pakistan is second with 86, and Republic of China is third with 67. There are foreign students from as many as 78 countries, including Scotland, Bolivia, France, Trinidad and Tobago, Poland, Zambia, Ruanda and others.

vans to perform at CSU

His dance performances have been described as "brilliant," "enthralling," "mesmerizing," and "masterful." Bill Evans, one of the leading dancers and choreographers in the nation will display his virtuosity in dance during a solo concert at 8 p.m. March 10 in Mitchell Hall Theater.

Baseball club drops opener By John Lukehart Student Writer

Central State's baseball team opened their season with a doubleheader Saturday afternoon as they hosted Missouri Southern. In the first game CSU was held scoreles on three hits, while Missouri Southern pounded out eleven runs on eight hits in their 10-0 victory. Eleven runs were enough to end the seven inning game short due to the ten run rule. CSU had their problems in the game, as they were charged with seven errors in five innings. Broncho baseball coach Bobby Hunt was optimistic about his team after the loss. "We didn't play very well. I'm not pleased, but I'm not disappointed either," he said. "Missouri Southern is a very good team. We didn't hit, and we made alot of errors. That has a lot to do with last weeks weather. It kept us off the field for three days, and this was the first time we have seen live pitching in quite

a while." Senior Cory Black was the losing pitcher for the Bronchos. Others seeing action on the mound were freshman Robbie DePerro and senior Mark Bayliss. Broncho pitching yielded two downtowners Saturday afternoon; one in each game. Both were off the bat of Baromoski, Missouri Southerns catcher. In the second game the Bronchos had junior Jay Sparks on the mound. Sparks gave up a seven run second inning and held SMU scoreless in four others. However, the big second inning was too much to overcome. CSU broke into the scoring column in the ninth inning of the game, but fell short of Southern Missouri 8-2. Along with scoring some runs, the Bronchos committed just one error. On Tuesday the Bronchos will try to get into the win column when they host Oklahoma Christian. The doubleheader is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m.

Big half dooms cagers By Mike Sullivan Sports Editor

NAIA tournament-bound Oklahoma Christian turned a 53-41 halftime deficit into a 92-82 victory over the Lady Bronchos Thursday in the Broncho Field House. "They beat us in that first half," said basketball coach John Keely. "It's a game of spirts; they had their spirt and then we let it get out of control." OCC raised their record to 24-7 with the victory, while the Lady Bronchos dropped their nonconference record to 8-18.

Eagles squeeze by Broncho capers By Randy Anderson Student Writer

Central State fell to the NAIA's fourth-ranked Oklahoma Christian College Eagles 84-79 Thursday in a fan-filled Broncho Field House. The contest was the last home game for seniors Eric Roumph, Scott Streller, and Scott Moody. Streller entered the game with 990 career points, 10 shy of the elite 1,000-point club. Early in the game the Bronchos

played tough, taking away the attack of the Eagles top two scorers, senior Steve Dunn and sophomore Terrance Gaines. Junior Kelvin McCain came off the bench and had 14 first-half points, which helped keep the Bronchos close until the 3:15 mark. Then it happened. Streller fired in number 1,000. "I was shocked when it happened, it took just a little time to sink in," Streller said.

OSU softball team stings Lady Bronchos By Andrew Smith Student Writer

Friday, Feb. 24 marked the first softball scrimmage for the Lady Bronchos at Oklahoma City's Softball Hall of Fame Stadium. Central State played two five inning games and one three inning which ended up in three losses against Oklahoma State 8-0, 1-0 and 4-2. The first game for the Lady Bronchos was made up of errors due to not being able to adjust to playing outside. Freshmen Kelly Powell started pitching for CSU and had a hard time competing against the NCAA Division I third-ranked pitcher junior Michelle Smith of OSU. "We made lots of errors. It was our mistakes due to lack of being outside," freshmen Jacquie Stephens said. "Our fielding was rusty. Our team didn't get a single hit in the first game." The Lady Bronchos played stronger in the second game and lost by two judgment calls.

Stephens pitched and allowed one run in the whole second game. Her knee proved to be a problem during the second game. Two calls were called against CSU which eventually led to the Lady Broncho's defeat. "The umpire was an idiot," Stephens remarked, referring to the two strikes she pitched against the only OSU player that forced a score. Senior Jane Kajs pitched the last game and managed to steal home on a wild pitch. The difference this last game and the other two was in the teamwork. Today the Lady Bronchos will scrimmage OU in Norman. The game is scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday they will host Wartburg College at the Softball Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City. The game is also set to start at 2:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday they will host the CSU Invitational tournament at the Softball Hall of Fame. It is scheduled to start at 10 a.m.

OCC was able to take the lead right before halftime. Freshman Tim Boynes made a lay up that gave the Eagles a 39-38 lead. "I really would have liked to have had the lead at halftime, but they just grabbed it from us," said Broncho basketball coach Jim Seward. The Bronchos jumped out to an eight-point lead early in the second half. But the Eagles caught fire with Dunn hit back-to-back 3-pointers that gave OCC a nine-

point lead. McCain pulled CSU to within five points with 3:37 left in the game. Roumph and Streller fired in 3-pointers in the last two minutes, but the Eagle attack was to much as the clock ran out. "I guess making number 1,000 would have felt better had we won the game," Streller said. "I just want to thank coach Seward for always being positive with the team. He has been a great influence on me."

Junior forward Albertine Jennings led CSU with 17 points, and junior guard Shawn Williams added 14. Senior guard Dia Snyder finished with 13 points for the Lady Bronchos and freshman forward Lisa Lowden had 10. Snyder, along with fellow seniors Tina Smith, Willie Crawford and Jill Smith will end their collegiate careers Satrurday in Lawton when the Lady Bronchos take on Cameron. Thursday's game marked the last time the four seniors will play at home, and Snyder said they had mixed emotions after the game. "This is what it's all about," she said. "I don't think it's sunk in yet, I was so up for the game. I didn't get any sleep last night knowing this would be my last game. I'm just sorry we didn't win."

Britton joins tennis squad England's Anna Britton joins CSU tennis team

Anna Britton

By Andrew Smith Student Writer

Question: When did you start playing tennis?

EDITORS NOTE: Central State freshman health and physical education major Anna Britton is a long way from home. She hails from Devon, England, but will now call Edmond home as she starts her American collegiate tennis career for the Lady Bronchos. In the three months Britton has been in the United States, she has become acquainted with Oklahoma enough to share some of her thoughts on the two different countries and cultures.

Answer: I started playing competitively when I was 14. Question: Is this your first year in college? Answer: It is in America. I had some college in England. Question: What is life England like compared Oklahoma?

space in Oklahoma. England has public transportation so you can get to places easily. The weather is roughly the same though it is warmer in England, especially this year. There is more snow here. The drinking laws are different too. You can drink when you're 18 in England, so more people drink.

in Question: In general, what do to you think of Americans?

Answer: England is closer together. There is more open

Answer: American life is much slower, the people work at a slower pace and have different

sayings. They're easy to get along with. Question: Do you see much of Oklahoma? What stands out in your mind when you hear the word Oklahoma? Answer: No, I don't get to see much of Oklahoma. I don't have time to see much, but during the first week I was here I was shown some of Edmond. What I really liked was being introduced to the different foods! Question: What is your career goal in tennis and life? Answer: In tennis, to try to get as fit as I can and train harder so I can improve my overall game and match play. I would like to have a career with something to do in tennis. I'm just going to wait and see where my tennis goes. In life, either recreational public recreation in tennis or an athletic trainer dealing with fitness programs and injuries.

‘‘ I wasn't rubbing it in-I just wanted Eddie to know the score of last night's game,/

Question: In your opinion, what is the advantage of being a British student in America? Answer: It's a nice change of pace and people like to hear my accent. Question: How are you getting along with friends and school? Answer: People are quite easy to get along with but they find it quite difficult to understand my accent; some people say I speak too fast. School is also easier than at home, the systems are different. We finish high school at 16 and can then go on to college which I did for two years. I took English, physical education and sociology. Question: How do you like living on campus? Do you feel restricted?

Go ahead and gloat. You can rub it in all the way to Chicago with AT&T Long Distance Service. Besides, your best friend Eddie was the one who said your team could never win three straight. So give him a call. It costs a lot less than you think to let him know who's headed for the Playoffs.

AT&T The right choice.

Answer: I was at boarding school for six years in England, so it's not that much different. It's much freer here. Question: What kind of training do you do? Answer: I thought there would be more tennis training here. I have to do my own weight training. It's not part of the program here. Question: What kind of sports activities do you enjoy? Answer: In England I played badminton, volleyball, basketball, swimming and horse riding. I played county, regional and national netball, as well as hockey. I also played varsity tennis, basketball and netball at my college. Question: Who do you admire the most in tennis? Answer: Martina Navratilova for her commitment and training program. She practices for 10 hours every day.

Spring elections held for Ad Club By Karl Knapp

Student Writer Randy Anderson was elected Advertising Club president for the spring semester in elections held by the club Feb. 22 in the Hall of Fame Room of the Communication Building. The new officers are: (back row, left to right) Mike Hatchette, treasurer; Dale Lott, parliamentarian; (front row, left to right) Kathy Hagee, secretary; Randy Anderson, president; Justin Seymour, vice president. The officers will meet this week to schedule semester activities, in-

eluding guest speakers, special presentations and field trips, said sponsor Lauren Hammack, adjunct instructor. The second semester club competes in a national advertising campaign for major businesses. This semester's club is just getting organized, said Lu Hollander, adjunct instructor. The Ad Club puts an emphasis on advertising and it's students and provides information about internships and jobs after graduation, Hollander said.

CSU computer head experienced in field From writing software to selling hardware to consulting to teaching computers, Jerry Scott, academic coordinator of Central State University's Computer Center, has a wealth of experience with computers. Scott has a bachelor's degree in math from Southwestern State University in Weatherford and a master's degree in secondary education from Fort Hays State University in Hays, Kan. His experience in education began when he taught data processing for two and a half years at Seward Community College in Liberal, Kan. "It was a similar position to this one except they didn't have the enrollment CSU has so I had to teach also," Scott said. He then taught at Cameron University in Lawton for five and a half years. In 1978, when computers were becoming more widely used, Scott opened a retail electronics store in Watonga. By 1988, more than 83 million worth of computer equipment had passed through his store. Much of it was sold to cornpanies in Miami, Fla.; New York City; Chicago; San Fransisco and other major U.S. cities. Scott took on special projects during that time, including wiring a stenograph machine to an IBM computer and writing software to allow Blaine County's court clerk to translate her shorthand into English and print it out while typing in the courtroom. Another project, which was done with a friend, required them to fully computerize the pollution

Parker Continued from page 1 Lavin said. "They all three were friends and he was simply called in to intervene." Police noted there were black and blue marks on Madden's neck. The incident has since prompted another Bellmon aide to take a 30-day leave without pay. In a note to Bellmon Feb. 14, Drew Mason, Bellmon's chief-ofstaff, said, "There appears to be some question about my activities relative to the event that occured between Edwinna (Madden) and Bill Parker. Until the matter is cleared up, I wish to take leave without pay." "Mason offered his resignation, but Bellmon would not accept it," Wendy Johnson,

control system for the John Zink Co. of Tulsa. They created the hardware and software that is still in use today. Scott's plans for the future include maintaining what he's done on campus already with cornputers and then enhancing it. Scott also wants to develop a campus-wide service of ordering computer software and hardware. "As it is for now," Scott said, "if you go out to buy a system, the salesmen will sell you what they want you to buy—not neccesarily what you need." He also plans to set up a cornputer network that will run beside all the current local networks in each office or department to cut down on the university's paperwork. On the personal side, Scott is preparing for an international, six-day motorcycle enduro to be held in the U.S. five years from now. He's not going to race in it, though. He's going to time it using computers as he has done for enduros in the past. For the enduros, Scott sets up "a full dragstrip in the middle of nowhere with Christmas lights, computers and everything." With computers, Scott is able to score each rider's distance covered and timed in 15 minutes, instead of the days or weeks it used to take manually. When he gets time, he also intends to do more work on parallel processing, which is software and hardware that allow a computer to work on several projects at once, and write articles on business networking.

Bellmon's assistant press secretary, said. In other published reports, Madden made references that Reherman and Mason tried to discourage her from pressing charges against Parker, but both men denied this charge. Neither Reherman nor Mason could be reached for comment. Madden refused to comment on the Parker incident or about the remarks made by her mother, Carolyn Kleckner, to the Tulsa Tribune. Kleckner told the newspaper Mason tried to discourage Madden from pressing charges because he was afraid of possible exposure of a personal relationship with another secretary.
