Student legislature fights drinking age hike
Vista photo by Daniel Smith
Todd Felker, a CSU student, protested against James Watt, Secretary of the Interior, as he spoke to 2,500 members at the Oklahoma Republican convention at the Capitol Saturday.
By Mark Spears Staff Writer The Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature (OIL) has approved a bill in their bi-annual meeting, held earlier this month, that will allow the beer drinking age in Oklahoma to remain at 18, also at the end of their weeklong meeting the OIL was accused of taking a keg of beer bribe from the Adolph Coors Company. The OIL is a legislative body comprised of student leaders from college campuses across the state. In their bi-annual sessions they discuss, pass or reject legislation covering issues such as foreign policy, student rights and the recent tuition hikes by the Oklahoma Board of Regents. The Oklahoma State Legislature is at this time considering a bill that would raise the age for drinking 3.2 beer to 21, but House Speaker Dan Draper said that he is willing to make a compromise that would allow cities to set their own age limits for drinking within certain limititations. Under Draper's proposal, the state legislature could set a statewide age limit of either 19 or 21 and the cities could raise or lower the minimum. But this could be dogded simply by driving out of the city limits. "I don't think you can do it (set an age limit) on a municipal level because of the point that was brought up that you can go right outside the city limits and drink, so thats not going to get you anywhere either," commented Susan Witt, delegation chair from CSU and the committee coordinator. David Riggs, D-Sand Springs, said that the cornpromise to let cities have their own age limit would
create the problem of having young people drive to other cities with less restrictive drinking laws to drink. They would then have to drive home. "I think they (legislature) are going about it in the wrong way. They should aim for awareness and stiffer drunk driving penalties," said Witt. "I also think that they need to spend all of that money for education on responsible drinking, not just for age, because age will get you nowhere." The OIL was accused of taking a bribe, from Coors, of a keg of beer. Coors also does not what the legel drinking age changed to 21. Sources reported that in past years Coors has donated a keg of beer to the student legislature, but they refused to do so this year because of the law change controversy. The OIL holds a party at the end of their weeklong meeting and it was reported that OIL Senate Pro Tempore Mark Edmonson convinced the OIL Alumni Committee to donate the keg of beer to this party. "The alumni has in the past bought a keg of beer for a party at the end of the weeklong meetings. The alumni committee bought a keg this year and there was no donation from Coors, and we have the receipt to prove it," said Witt. "There was no bribe, but I can see how people's immediate reactions would go that way. It's not true (the rumor of the bribe), and I'm a little bit offended that they would go ahead and place it in the paper (all Oklahoma papers), in that way, without checking all of the sources," said Witt. "They (accusers of the bribe) put a bad reflection on an organization that has a lot of potential and does a lot of good things," commented Witt.
Opinions voiced
Students to evaluate advisors
By Terri L. Carpenter For the first time, students are not only going to be able to evaluate instructors, they will be able to evaluate their advisors also. Starting this semester, students will be able to express their opinions, positive or negative, about advisors and the help they have received. "This is something we have been working on for a long time and its purpose is to get feedback from students," said Donna J. Guinn, academic advisement coordinator. "It is something that is potentially very beneficial." Robert E. Austin, academic advisor, said that it will give the advisors feedback. Although he realizes there will be some negative remarks, Austin feels they can be used constructively. Austin is the academic advisor for computer science, funeral service, health, physical education and recreation, industrial education and military science. Calvin Fairbanks, academic advisor. said that it is a positive
merit. Fairbanks is the academic advisor for special education, general studies, applied health and public school nurses. "This is something that we developed, hoping to get feedback from the students that will help us in improving the advisement center. We know that there are a lot of areas that need improvement and we can't recognize those things unless we do have appropriate feedback from the students," said Elizabeth A. Black, academic advisor for nursing, science, medical technology, home economics, pre-engineering and medically related preprofessional programs. Joyce Navarre, academic advisor for business, who was on the committee that helped develop the instrument, feels like this is going to be a very positive thing for the advisement center. She said the advisors feel like they needed something and that the students could give them some kind of feedback on how they could better serve the student's needs. "If there are problem areas we
felt like if we could locate these, we could develop different ways of improving these areas," said Navarre. "I think it is going to be a very, very good thing for us, as well as the students." Gloria Auth, academic advisor for business, feels like this is a positive step in trying to uncover the problems in the area of advisement and help to improve them. In all the years that she has been here, Linda Mathews, academic advisor for psychology, elementary education, early childhood education and library science, says the evaluation instrument is one of the most positive tools she has seen. Dr. Gail E. Balman, academic
advisor, had no comment, because he believed it was too early to tell about the evaluations. Balman is the academic advisor for social studies, geography, history, political science, economics, sociology and criminal justice, pre-law, journalism and oral communication. The teaching faculty apparently hasn't been informed about the advisement evaluation tool since several commented that they knew nothing about it. Anne Lynch, president of the Faculty Senate, hadn't even been informed about it, but she said that she was very pleased with it on hearing about it. "This is one of the best aues-
tionnaires that I have seen. I don't think they (the advisors) are going to like the answers that they get," said Joe McCourry, president of Student Senate. "I think they are going to have to make some major changes after they start getting these in, because, I think, the students are kind of disgusted with the advisement program as it stands now. I hope this will bring about some good changes." He also said that he thought it was a good form, and he was glad to see that they had put it out. The advisement evaluation will not only be for students to voice complaints, but also, for them to "pat their advisor on the back" for doing a good job.

Opinion Page Federal taxes payers have to support, vote on too many nominees Letter to the editor:
My goodness, how many candidates for the presidency will the federal government have to support and protect? Just in the past month, five candidates have started up the handshaking, baby-kissing and food-tasting road to the Oval Office. How many tax dollars will it take to get these honorable men before the people for "intelligent" debate? Got a quarter buddy! Yes, let's support anyone who decides to run for any local, state or national government office. That way we will always know where the money has come from. But what about the Secret Service that protect them all. How much does it cost per-day per-man to protect a candidate running for the presidency? Frank McBoat

'Be preparedidraft's main reason Letter to the editor:
I find myself defending the draft registration alot these days to people who oppose it, yet say that they will help defend our country should she be threatened. I find this a bit of a contradiction! All draft registration will do is reduce the amount of time it takes to put all you "would be patriots" in uniform, you won't have to stand in those long lines at the recruiting office as you rally to your nations call. Rather, in the event of an emergency, the draft system will be all set up and ready to go. Modern warfare demands that a constant state of readiness be maintained. After Dec. 7, 1941, America had many months to tool up for World War II, it was not until 1943 that U.S. troops were commited to combat in North Africa. However, this is 1983, we dont have months to prepare, not even days! A Russian ICRM once launched will be here, in central Oklahoma in 23 minutes. When planning for war, a nation must consider "how costly will it be for
us," and to determine this, the target nation's degree of readiness must be examined; when the cost is to high, there is deterce. The American military has two functions; 1. Deterance, and 2. (which becomes number one in the event of war) to fight and win. Both these functions demand that we be ready—ready with the weapons, conventional and
Nuclear, ready with the skilled soldiers and ready with the draft. No, the draft is not the "big bad monster" many perceive it to be, and you'll find, after registration, that life goes on as usual, with no apparent effect. Unless, of course, there is a war, in which case, we would all volunteer as "good" Americans should. Right? M. Gonzales
'Letter' contains only falsehoods when talking about fraternities Letter to the editor: May I answer the letter of Feb. 17,
entitled "Fraternities are more than drinking houses?" The very same week as that letter was published, there was a fraternity group yelling and screaming at midnight, so loud that they could be heard from two blocks away. The things fraternities do is AirNoise-Pollution, and disgrace their neighborhood. The night after the letter was published another loud-mouth student
was heard in the alley behind his fraternity house. His speech was so slurred it was impossible to understand what he was trying to say. If he was not drunk he gave a good imitation of a drunk. I am ashamed of the fraternity house in our neighborhood. When I have visitors I have to apologize for the unruly noise makers that have not grown up yet, and act like eight-year-old children without their mothers. An Edmondite

Troupe demonstrates wardrobe extension By Twyla Cowan
Satellite shows birth of stars
"Back to Basics" was the theme of the wardrobe workshop held at the Feb. 19 meeting by the CSU Dames, a social organization of the female faculty, staff and administrators and their wives.
Infrared images returning from an Infrared Astronomical Satellite, shows that there are some cosmic "maternity wards" that are clouds of dust that appear to be giving birth to stars. The satellite collected more information in one minute of observation on infrared emission from the Large Magellanic Cloud, the nearest galaxy to our Milky Way, than had been obtained in years of observation from balloons, high altitude aircraft or from instruments on the ground. Infrared rays are radiations coming from space and they are invisible to the naked eye and almost invisible from the earth completely because they are mostly absorbed in the atmosphere. According to astronomers working on the project, emmisions from a dense nebula of the Large Magellanic Cloud known as Tarantula, seems to confirm the predications that this region is where many new stars are forming.
The CSU "Fashion Troupe", sponsored by Dr. Dorthea Gaffney, Home Economics professor, demonstrated to the Dames how to extend their wardrobe and how to keep it up to date. The group was represented by a small segment of the whole troupe. Michelle Washington, Debbie Kelley, Lori Effinger and Kathi Kletecka modeled clothes

Drilling site trial continues
Part time
In the second day of a trial filed against the Edmond City Council by Silver Lake Exploration Co. of Ponca City, Tim Rayburn, petroleum engineer, testified that the moving of a planned drilling spot for an oil and gas well will increase the chances of hitting a dry well by as much as 40 percent. The Edmond City Council denied the company the right to drill an area soon to be developed as part of the Oak Tree residential complex. Rayburn said that moving the drilling site and drilling at an angle would increase the possibility of mechanical problems and reduce the chance of a producing well by 50 percent. Rayburn commented that mechanical problems encountered from drilling a directional well have caused a lot of wells not to be completed when they should have. Cross examination was scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. today by Edmond attorney Fred Orcutt.

Washington modeled several outfits basically using white pants and a red striped blouse. She mixed sweaters, scarfs of different colors to create several different outfits. Washington also used gold jewlery and hats and gloves to turn a casual looking outfit into an "executive woman" look. Effinger used black as her main color with a white headband, beads and a belt. She also mixed grey and pink with her outfits and
accented her shoes by adding clip on bows. Also, with a few simple changes, Effinger went from a reserved to a flashy look by simply combining a bright feusha summer top with the black. Kelly's basic color was red. She also used white to accent her look. A headband, scarf and straw handbag provided several options for outfits. She also used a skirt with detachable buttons providing several more looks. Effinger demonstrated the popular looks with a scarf folded crossways on her shoulder and on her purse to dress it up. She also changed into a black glitter top transposing the warm reds she had sported to a fiery evening attire. Kletecka began her demonstration with a red cotten sweater and a natural skirt using a multicolored handbag to set it off. Then with a few changes, she produced a suit and accented with gold and brass.

Watt says parks improving Secratary of the Interior James Watt said at news conference in Oklahoma City Friday that "Americans should take care of what we have." Watt said that when the republicans took office in 1981 they found a nation that was hurting. Watt blamed past administrations for ignoring wildlife refuges, the deterioration of the national park system and for permitting water and air pollution to increase. Watt then produced graphs showing that in fiscal year 1982. the department of Interior received over $159 million for park restoration, while in fiscal 1981 the Carter Administration received only $79.6 million. He criticized the Carter Administration for allowing the funds for park acquisition to deteriorate. However, the graph showed that in the fiscal year 1978, $366 million was spent on acquisitions while Watt has only requested $54.7 million for the fiscal year 1984. Watt commented that the United States national parks, refuges, wetlands, barrier islands, national forests and federal public lands are better managed today than they were two years ago and in addition these lands are wealthy in resource potential.
and accessories showing how to keep a wardrobe alive. Joy Aninwene, Tracy Farris, Deborah Dean and Carmon Talley, also of the troupe, served as dressers for the models. According to commentators, Linda Moore and Marie Mott, women today need to know more about how to wear their clothes differently and how to make the most of the way they look and feel without spending a fortune. That was the purpose of the workshop.

SDX members eat homemade chili with Nigh By Twyla Hart Sigma Delta Chi members had the opportunity to socialize with someone besides other college students Thursday night. CSU members and professionals in the Oklahoma City chapter were invited to the governor's mansion for a chili supper featuring Mrs. Nigh's homemade chili. Guests were greeted by the Governor, who was dressed in western apparel which complemented the atmosphere of the evening. A social time preceeded the meal with the Governor mingling among his guests and giving a short historical account of the mansion. The guests were invited to climb the winding stairway to the third floor for a buffet of chili, hor d'oeuvres and caramel brownies.
Guests served themselves and \vere seated at tables scattered across the room w hich w as adorned with Indian and \\ estern artwork. After everyone was seated, Mrs. Nigh joined the group and sat \\. it h the CSL: students. Students shared their ideas about the the drinking age law ith Nigh. The governor encouraged everyone to take second helpings as he jokingly indicated that if they didn't he would "have to eat chili for a week." As everyone was finishing their meal, Nigh was introduced by his press secretary as being "as old as the mansion." However he admitted that he had stolen the line from Mrs. Nigh after which she finished the joke by saying she had "already had the mansion sandblasted once."
Nigh extended a time for questions and elaborated mainly on his problems \\ ith budget deadlines and how it inconviences both himself and the press. Nigh also discussed the legislation on the drinking laws and
stated that he was in favor for it being raised to the age 21. On the most part the Governor stressed that the state was in good shape economically, especially since some of the bigger companies, such as General Motors,
had called back employees it had layed off. Although Nigh admitted that his job "isn't a ball," he did sa ■ that he \\ as happ ■ being the Governor and didn't desire an other office.

Parent confident as...
Bronchos seek another crown By Mike Allen With the 1983 outdoor track season just over the next hurdle, coach Paul Parent and the CSU men tracksters are stalking their third straight District Nine crown. This year, however, the Bronchos will rely heavily on youth to do the trick. Parent's troops open the outdoor season with a dual meet Wednesday here. "We are a relatively young team," says Parent. Out of 36 members only eight are seniors, along with seven juniors, nine sophomores and 12 freshmen. But, according to Parent, what the team lacks in experience, they compensate with determination. "I'm basically a confident person," says Parent. "And I feel confident about winning another District Nine crown." However, Parent is quick to point out that his confidence is not to be mistaken for "cockiness." He realizes the talent in the district is spread out evenly among the schools this season, and this could bring about some splitting of points at the Distict Nine meet that may even things. The best bets to win the district are the middle and long distance events, said Parent. Co-captain Charlie Cedeno, a 5' 9", 140 pound senior from Del City, and Alan Barnes a 5' 10", junior from Maysville, both All-Americans, will head up the field in the middle distance events. Two-time All-American, Ronnie Parks a senior from Jenks, led the Broncho cross-country team to another good showing at the NAIA National Cross Country Meet last fall. Parks set track records last year in the 5000 meters and the 2-mile run. The sprinting corps will also prove to be a tough

By Robert Slankard The Lady Bronchos revealed their own version of "Mr. Inside and Mr. Outside" Thursday night at Oklahoma Baptist as they rolled to an 82-69 thrashing of the Lady Bison. Kim Kramer had 19 points, all coming on lay-ups and short jumpers, and Jackie Eckels,
despite playing most of the night in foul trouble, scored eight points and hauled in seven rebounds to pace the inside attack while Carrie Tucker, Gayle Stout and Patti Komalty combined for 48 points to lead the outside punch. The results would have made even Army drool as CSU

one, according to Parent. Johnell Sloan, a junior from Oklahoma City, and a record-holder in the 100 and 200 meters, along with Lawrence Austin, a freshmen from Duncan will anchor the field in the sprinting events. Gerald Alexander, a junior from Okmulgee, although sidelined with a hamstring injury, should contribute substantially in the sprinting events. Coach Parent says Gerald should be back to 100 percent by April 1. The Bronchos' field events squad looks very strong with the exception of the high jump according to Parent. Merle Ashley, a senior from Tulsa, and sophomore Gilbert Hornbeak, both prolific point scorers, will lead in the field events. Ashley won the triple-jump last year in the district meet, while Hornbeak finished second in the shot-put. In addition to the shot, Hornbeak will also throw the javelin, discus and the hammer. Bryan Coffey, a senior from Davis, who finished first in the javelin at the district meet last year, will also return. Coffey was the back-up quarterback on the NAIA championship CSU football team last fall. Although the team didn't have a pole-vaulter last year, this year they have three. Scott Raper, a junior from Owasso, sophomore, Thomas Heard from Norman and John Pellow, a freshmen from Edmond. Parent says there are two events that are weaker this year, the high jump and quarter-mile. Parent blames this weakness on the lack of depth in these particular events. "We have a lot of depth on this team as a whole," explained Parent, "however we do lack depth in these two events."

dismantled OBU to up its record to 22-10. The Lady Bison, who entered the contest with a 14 game winning streak and the top-seat in the District tournament, dropped to 27-8. OBU took its only lead of the night on Dayna Shultz's basket 22 seconds into the game. But CSU quickly countered with 12 unanswered points, including six from Kramer. The Lady Bronchos built that lead to 27-13 midway through the half. It was doubtful that CSU could match their first half shooting, 64.5 percent, especially from the outside. But it was equally doubtful if OBU would ever stop the combo of Eckels and Kramer under the basket either. However, both drew their second personal fouls within 30 seconds of each other midway through the half and Eckels picked up her third with 1:05 left in the half. By that time Tucker had also picked up three fouls and CSU appeared to be in danger of losing the momentum. But 6'1" Rochelle Ware proved more than up to the challenge, especially in the intimidation department. In the final seven minutes she hit a short jumper, blocked a shot, grabbed a couple of big rebounds and deflected passes as well as provided strong defense underneath. Thus, CSU took a 45-30 lead into the lockers.

Lady Bronchos nip Cameron 55-49 By Robert Slank:)rd The CSU Lady Bronchos relied on a tenacious full court press and 30 Cameron turnovers to defeat the Lady Aggies 55-49 here Monday night in the opening round of the District Nine tournament. The victory, CSU's third over Cameron this year, sends the Lady Bronchos to Weatherford for a game with the defending national champion Southwestern Lady Bulldogs Wednesday night. Although the final margin was six points the game was in doubt until the closing minute. Cameron
had chipped away at a 13 point deficit in the last eight minutes and had a chance to pull within a bucket trailing 51-47. But Kim Kramer's defensive play on an Aggie inbounds pass underneath the basket resulted in CU's 29th turnover. Gayle Stout then swished two tree throws and Jackie Eckels hit an easy layup to clinch the win as CSU moved to 23-10 on the year.
the lead for good on a basket from Patti Komalty with 16:43 remaining. Komalty, who was named the player of the week in District Nine, led CSI.1 with 15 points. She also had eight rebounds, five assists and two steals. In the ensuing ten minutes Cameron managed only six points while CSU ran off 19, including seven points from Komalty. Coach John Keely attributed the improved second half play to a change in tempo. "We were playing Cameron's

game and we needed to get in our offense; running," said Keely. Using a patient offense, the Lady Aggies were able to use 6'1" Mattie Crawford and 6'4" Angelita Drinks underneath to work several easy baskets. Crawford opened with CU's first four points and Drinks had six straight in the closing minutes of the first half to put the Lady Aggies in front. The Lady Bronchos appeared to be in control of the game midway through the opening half when they spurted out of a 10-10 tie to a 19-12 with 8:46 left.
CSU grapplers seek third straight NAIA title By Mike Sherman
"When you sweat and pay the price like they have done, you just hope that everyone does well," said James. "I wish I could wrestle some matches for us. The wrestlers James will count on to give the Bronchos their third straight crown, and some of his thoughts on their chances are:
Sports Editor The Central State University wrestling team, riding a streak of two consecutive national championships and three out of the last four, travel to Minot, N.D. this week in an attempt to continue the "dynasty" in the 26th Annual NAIA National Wrestling Championships. The Bronchos have the tradition of a winning program - and six wrestlers - to take to Minot, but James said this year's title will be harder to attain.
David Addudell (126) - The 5'6" freshman from Sand Springs took over around Christmas when All-American Joe Starzenski ‘‘ as injured. Addudell racked up a 9-4-1 record to qualify, including a big win over Russ Martinez of Adams State. Addudell and Scott Luschen (190) are the only two \\ restlers making their first appearance at the nationals. "He never won a state title so he's hungry to get to the nationals and get some recognition. He wants to make a name for David Addudell."
"It won't be impossible for six guys to win the tournament for a team, but with just six, it leaves no room for mistakes," said James. "If we get beat, we've got to come back and place high. We need to be in the top four in all of the weights. I've figured it out on paper a million times, and that's what it's going to take." A change of NAIA rules for the 1982-83 season required that individual wrestlers must qualify instead of a school merely taking the whole team.
Ronnie James (142) - Ronnie is one of what coach and older brother David James calls his "three steady performers,"along with Gary Astle and Benny Coleman - and for good reason. The younger James is a two-time national champion and has a 30-4 record going in. The 5'11" junior is also unbeaten in the NAIA this season. "He's one of the smartest wrestlers I've been around. He's mentally tough and that's what makes him so good. When Ronnie goes out on the mat, I just don't have any doubt." Mark A. Allen (158) - Allen has wrestled at 150, 158 and 167 this season finishing the regular season 10-11. The junior from Mustang qualified for the nationals by virtue of a second-place finish in the Nebraska-Omaha Invitational. "He's been there before and he knows what to expect from a national tournament. He's hungry to do well." Gary Astle (167) - Astle would be the "Comeback Wrestler of the Year" if there
CSU finished third in the final "Amateur Wrestling News" poll behind No. 1 Adams State and Southern Oregon. James said that these two schools are the Bronchos' main road-blocks in their struggle for the title, but any of the top five teams could "walk away with ir." Adams State will take eight wrestlers to the tourney, as will Southern Oregon. "Tournaments are funny," said James, "but the three of us (Adams State, Southern Oregon and CSU) should be pushing for title. Being champions for the last couple of years is going to help because we have a reputation. Our kids are very aware of the tradition and so is everyone else. Opponents know they're going to have to wrestle seven minutes against CSU. They know we have a bunch of hard-nosed wrestlers." James also warns that his grapplers may be the victim of the "Shooting-for-Number-One Syndrome." "But this way we will be more than ready when we get there," said James. In preparation for the nationals, James has worked the grapplers hard since their home finale against Southwest Missouri by increasing practice time.

was such an honor. After suffering an ankle injury at mid-season, the junior from Moore bounced back and has knocked-off OU's Melvin Douglas and Adams State's defending national champion Shane Palmer. "Gary has always had the heart it takes to win a title, but there was just a situation where he couldn't get in there. He's had the ability since he was a freshman. If anybody deserves a national championship it's Gary Astle." Benny Coleman (177) - Coleman has something to prove this year, according to James. Injuries hampered him last year and part of this season, but Coleman finished with a 16-3 mark, leading the team with eight falls. He is a junior from Choctaw. "I honestly believe that if Benny's not the best 177-pounder in the country, then he's right behind. He won a national championship as a freshman, but finished fourth last year. He wants the national title back and you can bet he will go out and try to pin everyone." Scott Luschen (190) - Luschen has only been wrestling for CSU since January after transfering from Oklahoma State, yet his 6-3 record was good enough to qualify. Although he is a senior, Luschen will be hampered because he didn't have a fullseason workout, said James. "Scott wrestled in Gallager Hall at OSU and anytime you wrestle there you know what pressure is like. His skills are good enough to win a national championship, but he has never been to a national tournament."

However, with the exit of Kramer, who'd earlier picked up her second foul, and Carrie Tucker, Cameron ripped off 11 unanswered points to take their biggest lead of the night at 23-19 with four minutes remaining. Buckets from Kramer, Stout and Komalty regained the lead for CSU but Cameron scored the final three points of the half. The teams had a miserable night shooting; Cameron hitting 34 percent from the field and CSU 31 percent. The Lady Bronchos are shooting 42 percent for the year but were coming off of consecutive games of over 50 percent. CSU's semi-final match with Southwestern will begin at 8:00 p.m. If the Lady Bronchos win they will travel to Shawnee to face OBU or return home to play East
