Larger orchestra pit slated By Mei Pong and Lori Aronson Mitchell Hall, where many orchestras and bands have performed, will be given a new orchestra pit. Jim Poe, manager of Mitchell Hall, said $5,000 was recently donated to CSU by the Kirkpatrick Foundation to enlarge the orchestra pit. "The existing orchestra pit, which was built in 1925 to accommodate smaller orchestras, is too small for current needs," Poe
said. The concrete pit will be broken up and dug 2 feet deeper. A new partial cover will be installed to maintain the size of the stage and to deflect the sound out toward the audience. The floor space between the main seating area and the current orchestra pit will be taken out to build the new pit. According to Poe, added features include a safety rail, which will be added so that the audience will not trip.
The work for the pit has begun and should be completed in time for the April 14-16 production of "Cosi fan tutti," which will be performed by the university's civic opera company, the Edmond Central Historical Opera, Poe said. According to Poe, even if the work is not completed on time, the opera production can still proceed since the building of the pit is being done in several separate stages.
The fact that many Americans today, particularly students, are not aware of the importance of the Bill of Rights was one of the main concerns that prompted Pulitzer Prize-winning political theorist Dr. James McGregor Burns to write his play, "We the People of Liberty Tavern." Dr. Burns' original three-act play will be performed Friday, March 3 through Sunday March 5 in the Pegasus Theatre in Central State Univerity's Liberal Arts Building. The play will be performed by the CSU theatre program in a special reader's theatre production. Burns will be on on campus this week through Sunday, March 5 to speak to various classes, attend rehearsals of the play, give interviews with the media and hold discussions following all performances of the play. Set in Philadelphia at the time of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, the play explores the many humanities issues debated during the historic five days leading up to the signing of the U.S. Constitution. Although no historic figures appear in the play itself, the people portrayed are ordinary men and women, black and white, young and not so young, from the north and the south, and these people are involved in the decisions made at that time. Burns chose to use a diverse group of ordinary citizens for his characters since ordinary Americans traditionally have
stood up for their rights as a whole. "I wanted to show how great events will impact on the lives of ordinary people," he said. The play is intended as both entertainment and education. "I would like to appeal to the young, but informed audience," said Burns. "People today know some history, but not a great deal." "I think people today mainly ignore the Bill of Rights. They don't seem to know about its origins. To me, the main question today is what will people do now when the chips are down." Burns mentioned the Joseph McCarthy era as a time when "the chips were down" in terms of the rights of average citizens. Another example is recent efforts to include prayer or a moment of silence in public schools. Such efforts impact separation of church and state, freedom of religion and freedom of speech. In fact, the play opens with a scene featuring a Quaker who has been pulled before a judge for passing out religious literature. "The scene," Burns said, "obviously raises the issue of religious persecution. "I think that the question of rights cannot be supressed. People will always demand their rights, and Americans have a good tradition of demanding their rights." Burns is visiting Central State University because previous visits to the campus have been so rewarding to him. Please see Burns on page 8.
Is racism a problem here? By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer Several Central State University students allege racial prejudice on campus, but are hesitant to complain to the administration because they say little can be done about it. The alleged racial incidents include: • a black student claimed his new dorm roommate refused to live with him. • a foreign student at CSU claims he was racially slurred as he walked past a small group of students. • a faculty member uttered racist remarks to a student in class. Is racism prevalent at CSU? "Yes, it is," said Dr. Lamona Evans, instructor in English at CSU. "If the (CSU) administration closes its eyes and ears, this problem will continue to exist. This campus must be integrated. "In Oklahoma, CSU has the largest black student population, about 3,500, in a state college. But because there's no integration, we
are a black school within a white school," said Evans, who is also a faculty senator and sponsor of a black sorority at CSU. Evans said black students had complained to her about racist remarks made by faculty or unfair treatment at the dorms. "Unless there is a push for affirmative action programs, there'll be no integration at CSU, only apathy," she added. Dana Christman, CSU's housing manager, said the housing office doesn't make room changes based on racial discrimination, "but nine times of out 10 the request to do so come from parents who do not wish their child to be in the same room with a person they've pre-conceived notions of. "We've the final say in a room change, but only if both occupants desire it. The policy is not intended to hurt anyone," said Christman. "It is not serious problem for a commuter college like CSU, but it does exist," said Dr. April Haulman, coordinator of bilingual education program at
CSU. "Minority students at CSU want some affirmative action by the administration. They want more minority role models. We've a few black faculty but not nearly enough, and no Hispanic faculty." "There is a preponderance of ignorance (at CSU) on the realities of society," said Dr. Paul Lehman, professor in English. "Certain trees constituting as a forest, which means some people might want to view their culture as significant and all others as less significant." Such ignorance, he added, "permits racism and prejudice to grow and be nurtured. Changes has to come from the top, not just from the president, but from the Board of Regents (Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education)." Dr. Dudley Ryan, dean of student services, said he had received one complaint of racial prejudice at CSU in the past year but it was resolved between the parties concerned. Please see Racism on page 8.

Viewpoints Tower bad pick for defense post By Jerry Pierce
Managing Editor
The time is now for President Bush to start using reason when making administrative appointments. High-profile womanizers and boozers tend to draw attention to themselves in places like Washington, D.C.. and Secretary of Defense-designate John Tower is drawing plenty. George Bush should have known better. President Reagan tried several times before choosing a Supreme Court Justice that everybody could agree on. First Robert Bork and then Douglas Ginsburg. Reagan finally appointed Anthony Kennedy. Now Bush has done a Reagan repeat with the qualified (perhaps) but controversial Tower. Tower's alleged boozing and "sex capades" have made what looked to be a smooth transition from vice president to president rougher than expected for Bush. Yet Bush won't budge with Tower. It seems Tower likes to drink too much and fool around with women he's not married to, not to mention his business ethics—questionable values for a man in charge of a nation's defense. From decision-makers in the upper echelons of government to mothers and fathers of children, all need self-control to effectively govern themselves and the entities they are responsible for. Nations don't need debauched leaders. They need leaders with personal integrity and self-control. Presidents should carefully scrutinize the person and his past when making an appointment. Anything less is idiotic in this age of electronic mass media when America can practically look in the White House kitchen window to see what the first lady is cooking for dinner. Nothing is a secret these days. If something stinks, someone will smell it. Bush should have sniffed when John Tower crossed his mind. He held his nose instead.

Moslem's persecuted by Khomeini By Keith Purtell Student Writer
Try to imagine how the members of the United Methodist church would feel if their elders issued a death threat against someone for having a slightly irreverant attitude. It may sound ridiculous but that's exactly what the world's Moslem community is being put through by the Ayatollah Khomeini. Even before the Salman Rushdie book incident, Khomeini is known to have executed thousands. Their crime? Having different religious beliefs than the Ayatollah regime.
Editorial Some 1,300 years ago one of the world's great religions was born in the Middle East. Islam, whose adherents are called Moslems, was built around the life and teachings of Muhammad (570-632 a.d.). With more than 700 million followers, its basic tenets are brotherhood and service to Allah (God). That's especially ironic considering the cold-blooded terrorism espoused by the radical Moslems in Iran. But then, one of the characteristics of religious fanatics is their tendency to engage in extremist activity which violates the original philosophy of their faith. It would be a mistake to blame
the Ayatollah problem on all Moslems. Many of the world's social groups have exhibited fanaticism at some time. The Soviet Union had Stalin, Germany had Nazism and India has an ongoing war between the Sikhs and the Hindus. There is a similar war in Ireland between Protestants and Catholics. Looking back in history, Christianity was shamed by the Spanish
Inquisition and the Crusades. Now it's the Moslem's turn. One of the United States embassy hostages who was released in January of 1981 said he had witnessed the Iranian people committing "cultural suicide." An appropriate description. It is the responsiblity of religious leaders to limit fanatical behavior among followers. As long as the world holds multiple
religious viewpoints, only mutual tolerance will maintain peace and order. Every attempt by religious leaders to make use of fanatics, or even just to ignor them, has resulted in disaster. When will they realize that fanatics are ultimately fated to commit sacrilege and undermine the culture of which their religion is a part?
Athlete defends sports spending To the editor, This is in response to Scot Bertram's comments in Feb. 9's Vista under 'Campus Quotes.' Specifically his comments, "They spend money on a losing athletic department." My question to Bertrem, and other mislead people like himself, is, "Where have you been hiding?" Obviously Bertrem hasn't attended any of our basket-
Letter ball games, wrestling matches, or indoor track meets this year. And he obviously hasn't been reading the Daily Oklahoman, the Edmond Sun, or the Vista this year either. In the last two weeks alone we won two of three home basketball games, we won both home wrestling matches, and we had 12 runners qualify to the indoor national meet.
Our athletes at CSU are doing something positive for themselves and for the name of CSU. Another question I have for Bertrem is, "What have you done lately for CSU?" Far too many students take and take from CSU, and give nothing in return. I don't care if we are a commuter university. I am very proud of the fact that I, and other athletes here, carry the name of Central State University all over the country. Through athletics, I have seen CSU's name promoted in the media in not only the Oklahoma City area, but in areas of Kansas, Utah, Illinois, Texas, and Arkansas just to name a few. So, Bertrem, what have you done for CSU lately? Bertrem is right, we are here to learn. The Physical Education department here at CSU has over 250 students in it, many of whom use athletics to help them in their major and to help them prepare to
be coaches themselves someday. To delete the athletic department, as Bertrem suggests CSU do, would be as far fetched as taking away the computers from our computer science majors. It is always better to investigate an issue before you try to 'slam' it. I would suggest that Betrem, or anyone else on this campus who thinks we athletes are a bunch of losers, needs to learn how to read a newspaper. Or maybe they need to go to an athletic event on campus. Why not ask people like Bertrem how many athletic events they have attended here the whole time they've been here...the number would be quite small. And by the way, will it be a "joke" when we have several wrestlers and tracksters make AllAmerican this winter? I hardly think so. Bertrem, what have you done for Central State lately?

Business club wins awards By Kamal Mazlan
Staff Writer The Central State University chapter of Phi Beta Lambda won several awards at the Oklahoma Phi Beta Lambda Leadership Conference held Feb. 24-26 at the Hilton Inn, West Oklahoma City, said Dr. Billye Peterson, faculty sponsor. "This was the largest conference ever held in Oklahoma with over 500 students in attendance. CSU was represented by eight students, assistant professor Dr. Betty Fry and myself," said Peterson, who is assistant professor in administrative services and business education.
report category, seventh place in outstanding chapter category, and seventh place in community service project.
She said registration at Orlando for first and second place winners at the state conference will be paid for by the national body.
Christina Wooten, a senior, won second place in business law and Wee Gee Chan, a junior, was placed third in information management and fifth in the management category.
"I think we've done extremely well, compared with other schools. The CSU chapter of Phi Beta Lambda has only 26 members, whereas a lot of schools that competed, like Oklahoma City University and Northwestern University, have 100 to 150 members because they are the only business club in their colleges of business," Peterson said.
Allen Reynolds received an entry in the Who' Who in Phi Beta Lambda; Phil Desjardins was placed eighth in marketing; and Steve Pulley got ninth place in marketing. All are juniors. Reynolds, Desjardins and Ernest LaMondue, Jr., a junior, placed eighth in business decision making.

The CSU chapter of Phi Beta Lambda was founded in January, 1973. Peterson said, "I know we'll do better at next year's state conference because I know what to expect now. We'll be better prepared when we begin study sessions this fall." She said CSU's chapter encourages freshman and sophomore students to join and be actively involved in the club. "Membership in the club is open to all CSU students," she said.

Management professor completes textbook "Management Applications: Exercises, Cases and Readings," a topical textbook on real-world management, has been completed by Dr. John T. Samaras, associate professor of management at Central State University. "Management Applications" was written by Samaras at the request of Prentice Hall publishers as a companion text to James A.F. Stoner's college textbook on management. Samaras' book contains 24 sets of excercises, cases and readings
paralleling the 24 chapters in Stoner's text. "Management Applications" is Samaras' first book and took two years to finish. "I have reviewed textbook manuscripts for Prentice Hall," Samaras said, "and one of their editors, Alison Reeves, said there is a need for an accompanying text to Stoner's book. She asked me if I would do it."
Samaras created the 24 cases and excercises. The readings were taken from other sources and wee written by scholars and practitioners in the field of management.
Samaras' book takes topical events, such as the Iran-Contra
Samaras arranged to get Central State University listed on the
Affair, and presents them from a managerial perspective. "Hopefully, the topical approach will be the uniqueness of this book," he said.

Kathleen Cahill fulfilling dream with plays Kathleen Cahill, Central State University's latest artist-inresidence, is not just an awardwinning writer, she's fulfilling a dream. One of her most recent works, "Ditched," will receive its world premiere at 8 p.m. March 10-11 and 2 p.m. March 12. The play won the Massachusetts Artists Foundation Award in 1988. Since then, it has been commissioned by WGBHTV in Boston as a screenplay for the "American Playhouse" series on PBS. An earlier version of the play
was given a staged reading offBroadway over a year ago. "The play is loosely autobiographical," Cahill said. "It started several years ago. I wanted to write about a wild girl who was my friend, and what happened to her. "I put the manuscript away for about a year. Then, one summer while I was teaching adolescents, I felt like I wanted to write the play again. I wrote it in two weeks." Cahill describes "Ditched" as a coming-of-age story with a twist at the end. "The first act is comedy," she
School yearbook in top percentile By Lori Miller
Student Writer Excerpts of 1988 Bronze Book, the Central State University yearbook, will appear in the next edition of Yearbook Yearbook. Yearbook Yearbook, published annually, contains samples of two percent of all college yearbooks published by Taylor Publishing Company. Lu Hollander, Bronze Book director, describes it as an "idea resource book for college publication staffs." It is used as a reference to help develop theme ideas, layout and book design, Hollander said. The publication, containing various sample spreads will be sent to the approximately 1,000 colleges and universities that use Taylor to publish their yearbooks, Hollander said. Only twelve college yearbooks recieved between October 1987
and October 1988 were chosen to appear in the Yearbook Yearbook based on excellence in yearbook design, which includes page design, theme development, copywriting and cover design. "It's extra recognition among our peers for a lot of hard work," Hollander said. This is the first time for CSU to be represented in the pulication, Hollander said, and Taylor has published the majority of CSU yearbooks since the 1960's. It was a goal of 1988 Bronze Book editor-in-chief, Leah Tennison for CSU to be representd in the Yearbook Yearbook. "I feel our hardwork, late nights and dedication has really paid off," Tennison said. The 1988 Bronze Book staff consisted of Leah Tennison, Dennis Ramsey, Annie John, Glenna Lewis and Elizabeth John.
Exceptional kids events scheduled By Rick Taylor
Student Writer The Student Council for Exceptional Children (SCEC) will attend the meeting of the Oklahoma Council for Exceptional Children at Tulsa's Downtown Doubletree Hotel March 10-11. The meeting is professional in nature but special education students are welcome to attend, said Dr. Malcolm Coby, group sponsor. "The advantage of attending this type of meeting is that students can receive first-hand knowledge and experience working shoulder to shoulder with professionals in the field of special
education." Coby said. The Special Olympics for Handicapped Children will be held in May at Oklahoma State University. The SCEC will act as dormitory sponsors for the meet. They will be able to work with the children outside of classroom situations and should gain valuable experience during this time, said Coby. "If anyone is interested in working with this this group they do not neccesarily have to be enrolled in special education," Coby said. Those who would like to participate should call Dr. Coby at ext. 5135.
said. "The second act is more serious, less comical." According to Cahill, every writer must establish some sort of routine. "With 'Ditched,' I got up early, sat there with a yellow pad and made a list of things," she said. "Next day, I'd go over the list, add some things, cross out others. For my next project I'm going to become an outrageous listmaker." Even if she's not writing, she still works on her projects by reading. "Somedays I can't do the
things I want," she said. "But I can always make lists, and read." Her husband, a socioligist, will be flying in to see the show. "It'll be his first visit to Oklahoma," Cahill said. Cahill's other work includes a one-act play, "Rose Denunzio Destroys the United States and the Soviet Union," which was produced in England at the Colchester Arts Centre while Cahill was running a writer's workshop at he University of Essex. A full-length play, "Permission From Children," was a finalsit in the international woman's
playwrighting competition, the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, and won an award from the Drama League of New York. The play was presented offBroadway at the Ensemble Studio Theatre as part of its New Voices series. Tickets for "Ditched" will be $5 for general admission, $2 for non-CSU students and senior citizens. CSU students and faculty will be admitted free with a current, validated ID.

Meeting to focus on families and sexuality College students, professionals in family relations and others will be attending and presenting papers April 14 at the Oklahoma Council on Family Relations (OCFR) ninth annual Business Meeting and Conference at Central State University. "Families and Sexuality" is the theme of the one-day conference in which "some of the best research and study in the area of family relations will be presented," said Dr. Marge Jennings, president-elect of OCFR. The conference will focus on topics of families and sexuality. Some of the topics that probably will be approached are sex education, sexual identity, marriage, learning to be comfortable with
one's own sexuality and how to talk to your children about sex, said Dr. Kaye Sears, CSU home economics professor. The featured speaker will be Dr. William R. Young, director of the Master's and Johnson Institute in St. Louis. Young is a family sex therapist and will be speaking on the topic of family sexuality. Participants of the conference also will have the opportunity to submit papers or projects that are directed toward family relations. "We encourage students to present papers or projects even if they are not complete because we would still like to see what they have," said Sears. A description of the project
needs to be submitted by March 15. A research committee will review submissions and inform those persons by April 1 regarding acceptance of their paper for presentation at the conference. In the afternoon, the participants will break into small groups and at that time those who have approved papers will present them, Sears said. "Everyone who attends the conference will have a greater awareness of families and sexuality, and the oppurtunity to hear the director of the Master's and Johnson Institute, during which they will be able to gather up to date facts on what the institute is doing and how they perceive families today, and the opportuni-
ty to present papers in small groups," said Sears. The conference is open to the public and the cost is $20 which includes the lunch buffet. Students will receive a discount for the cost of the conference. The OCFR is an affiliate of the
CSU talent show to stage 14 acts Central State University's annual "Bronze and Blue Revue" talent show. The show will be staged at 7 p.m. Thursday March 9 in Mitchell Hall Theatre on the CSU

Performing in the individual category will be Bart Phillips, Peggy Johnson, Lee Colee, Cameron Carlson and Jeff West, Janet Kennedy, Paul Andrews, Orlando Smith, Evan Smith, Randy Martin and Brenda Robertson. Performing in the group division will be the Malaysian Student Association. "Touch of Jazz," "Night Moves" and "4 Bits." Performers will be competing for a $200 first prize and $100 second prize in the organization division and prizes of $100 for first, $75 for second and $50 for third in the independent division. Also, a People's Choice Award will be determined through audience ballot, and a Congeniality Award will be determined through a ballot of performers. Last year's Bronze and Blue Revue included 12 acts and attracted an audience of 300, said Kelly Grace, president of the University Center Activities Board. "Response to the opening of auditions was overwhelming," said Judy Elwell, UCAB sponsor. "We had at least twice as many people audition this year as we did in the past. It was difficult to choose because all the auditions were very high quality performances. Due to the interest in the program this year we have 14 acts instead of 12." The university's Kaleidoscope Dancers Company will perform during the balloting. The acts chosen for the show will rehearse 6-10 p.m., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, March 6-8, and before the show on Thursday, March 9. Those acts will be required to put up a small deposit of $10 to $20 which will be returned the following show.

Sports Aggies zap CSU in finale By Mike Sullivan Sports Editor The third time was a charm for Cameron's basketball team, as the Aagies beat Central State 105-85 Saturday in Lawton in the final same of the season for both teams. Cameron's victory came after the Bronchos had beaten them twice earlier in the season. Cameron finished at 5-7 in the Lone Star Conference and 11-15 overall while the Bronchos finished at 4-8 in the conference and 8-16 overall. Senior Scott Streller, playing in his last game for CSU, scored 11 points, bringing his scoring total to 1,021. Fellow seniors Eric Roumph and Scott Moody finished their Broncho careers with eight and nine points respectively. The Bronchos pumped in 10 3-point shots in the game, five of them coming from freshman Scott de la Garza, who finished with 15 points. Junior Kelvin McCain had a team high 17 points, and junior Kipp Hinrichs added 14. Broncho junior center Bobby Harris had a team high eight rebounds. Cameron's Garry Johnson and Carlos Mayes scored a game high 27 points for the Aggies, and Johnson also hauled down a game high 11 rebounds.

Slick track costs CSU By Mike Sullivan Sports Editor A soft spot on the running surface cost Central State an opportunity to place in the mile relay at the NAIA National Indoor Track and Field Championships last weekend in Kansas City. Broncho sophomore Alton McKey pulled a hamstring after he hit the wet spot during the relay, forcing CSU to pull out of the event. "We really had a good chance

of placing in the mile relay before NIcKey's accident," said Broncho track coach Paul Parent. "And Rodney Glenn just missed qualifying in the 60-yard high hurdles by a hundreth of a second." Sophomore Melanie Mills went all the way to the finals of the mile run for the Lady Bronchos, finishing in 5:33.75, good enough for 10th in the nation. Pole vaulter Pete Martinez also made it to the finals, and registered a 15-foot jump. The
Broncho's 2-mile relay team of Mike Hogan, Eugene Spears, Aaron Sprague and McKey went to the final round and finished in 8:05.69. The Broncho distance medley relay team of Hogan, Sprague, Bill Uptergrove and Dwayne Antonio finished in 10:40.1 in the finals of that event. "We did the best we could," Parent said. "It's behind us now, and we're looking forward to the outdoor season."

By Randy Anderson Student Writer The Lady Aggies of Cameron upset the Lady Bronchos Saturday night in Lawton 74-66, avenging an early season loss to the Bronchos in Edmond. The game marked the end of their careers for Lady Broncho seniors Dia Snyder, Tina Smith, Willie Crawford and Jill Smith. Snyder finished with six points while Jill Smith added nine. Crawford did not play in the game, and Tina Smith scored two points. In the first meeting, CSU ran away from the Lady Aggie attack by outscoring them 72-53. This time proved to be a different story as Cameron played for keeps. The Lady Bronchos had only two players in double figures, Juniors Paula Peteet with 12, and Shawn Williams with 16. CSU cut the lead to two points early in the second half and made it a close game. Cameron seemed to play tougher towards the end of the game as they finished up their season defeating the Lady Bronchos 74-66. The Lady Bronchos finished the season at 4-8 in the Lone Star Conference and 10-14 overall, while the Lady Aggies finished at 2-10 in the conference and 7-18 overall.

Broncho baseballers split doubleheader By John Lukehart Student Writer Central State's baseball team looked for their first victory Tuesday afternoon as they entertained Oklahoma Christian in a doubleheader. CSU continued to have problems defensively, as they lost the first game 3-0, but then salvaged the second game 4-0, behind the strong pitching of senior Tom Schreiber. Schreiber allowed four hits, and fanned five en route to shutting out OCC.
CSU failed to capitalize on a fine pitching performance by junior Tim Roberts in the first game. Roberts allowed seven hits and posted five strikeouts while going the distance for the Bronchos. OCC scored one run in the second inning and two in the fourth to post a 3-0 victory over the Bronchos. In the second game, the Bronchos exploded for back-to-back two-run innings then held on to post their first victory of the season, 4-0.
playing anywhere near our potential, but we are starting to play better," said junior outfielder Ryan Miller. "By the time we play OCU next Thursday we should have everything together." CSU upped their record to 1-3 with Tuesday's victory. Roberts' pitching record drops to 0-1 and Schreiber holds a 1-0 record. CSU will finish-up their first homestand March 9 against Oklahoma City. The doubleheader is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m.
