Chaos invades student senate By Sam Powell Staff Writer
Prisoner asks for nymphomaniac jury SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — A man charged with sending skater Katarina Witt threatening and obscene letters asked that his jury be made up only of nymphomaniacs and atheists. U.S. District Judge Gary Taylor said no. Harry Veltman III, who is acting as his own attorney, had argued Monday that such jurors would be free from prejudice and hatred against him. Veltman, 47, is accused of sending 60 letters to Witt in her native Germany, along with nude photos of himself. He could get up to three years in prison.
Cadaver aquisition being questioned
L t.
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Twenty-two bodies found in a university morgue appear to be the gruesome harvest of a ring that kills homeless people to sell their cadavers to medicine, police say. The victims, seven men and three women, were homeless people who earn their livings collecting trash from the streets. Free University President Ramon Navarro Mojica on Monday said the bodies had been bought legally from the Legal Medical Institute of Barranquilla. But the medical institute denied supplying the bodies to the university.
June summit set WASHINGTON (AP) — Russian President Boris N. Yeltsin will visit Washington June 16-17 to discuss nuclear and reform issues, President Bush said Tuesday. Bush said his first formal summit with the Russian leader would provide "an excellent opportunity to follow up" on discussions they had at Camp David on Feb. 1. Bush said they would take up a wide range of issues, including nuclear and military questions and "joint efforts in support of reform" in Russia.

Chaos was the order of the day at Monday's University of Central Oklahoma student senate meeting where Speaker Carole Crawley repeatedly called for order, and one senator walked out in protest. The trouble began with debate on a resolution calling for a change of student by-laws to require that senators attend senate functions. Several senators complained loudly that they were not given copies of the bill when they arrived at the meeting. Parlimentarian Rebekah Zahn countered saying that every member of the senate is provided with a pre-meeting packet containing copies of proposals listed for discussion. "Please don't make me shout," Zahn said, as the senators began to caucus, or discuss matters between themselves. "Please everyone keep quiet unless you are leaving," she said. "The sergeant-atarms will make you go out in the hall if you continue to caucus." A vote was taken and the bill was sent back to committee. Crawley faced another challenge when a senator questioned rules requiring that two people second a call for an immediate vote. "These are the rules," Crawley said. "If you want to change them, change them. They are your rules." At that point a senator said the entire process was stupid and left. After the meeting Zahn defended the disorder saying it is a normal state of affairs for
the senate following an Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature session. OIL had ended Monday. "After OIL you always face a parliamentary abyss," she said. eth d.e 10 resolutions presented only two passed.

Tax-cut bill to overturn court ruling WASHINGTON (AP) — A House taxcut bill would negate a landmark court decision that requires the Internal Revenue Service to prove its claim that a taxpayer had under-reported income. The IRS successfully argued to lawmakers that the court ruling would undermine the effort to catch tax cheats through cornputer matching of returns with documents listing wages, interest and dividends. That matching finds $20 billion a year of unreported income. "The entire tax system will eventually crumble," if the decision stands, IRS Commissioner Shirley D. Peterson told Congress. An amendment to effectively overrule the court decision was one of scores of provisions tacked onto the Democratic tax bill behind closed doors before it was passed by the House last week. Most other amendments would have far less impact. One eventually could result in taxpayers using a credit card to pay the IRS. Another would change the tax rules for peple who hire domestics.

Japan bashing the latest craze
j
apan bashing is a fad that could surpass some of its predecessors such as Rubik's Cube, puka-shell chokers and the mood ring in popularity. The most recent evidence of this was the surprising showing of Republican long-shot candidate Patrick Buchanan in the New Hampshire presidential primary. But will the "buy American" slogan be embraced by the country's populace? U.S. consumers have become accustomed to the highquality, high-tech electronic exports the Japanese manufacture, and most upper-middle class yuppies are not willing to give up their status toys. Instead of bashing other countries, American business should examine itself and make adjustments. Lowering management salaries and improving product quality are just a few examples of ways we could learn from the Japanese and, once again, be the bashed instead of the bashers.
Television cause for mental decay liven before the Beaver and Wally came tripping merrily across the screen, television has been trying to tell / America how "normal" people should behave. But the act isn't real. Instead of showing people as they really are, the rulers of La La-land target those with enough money to buy sponsor's products, and tell everyone else to act like them. A recent study conducted by the American Psychology Association said the viewing public is being exploited. They said the original philosophy of the Communications Act of 1934 requiring broadcasters to serve the public interest has withered away. Some researchers say television is a drug that induces a passive, lazy approach to the stresses and problems of everyday life. Some say it causes mindless violence and a disregard for human life. Whatever it causes, the general effect is a mental dry rot, and the change most needed is to break the media's dependency on commercialism. But, it won't happen unless people stop buying the lies, and it may be too late for that.

Women are not the criminals ere we go again, blaming the victim for an act of crime. You stated the young woman became a victim because she put herself in a situation that could have been avoided. Almost every situation can be avoided. If you don't get into a car, you won't get into a wreck, if you don't own a home, it won't be burglarized. Yes, there are precautions and responsibilities to take in every situation, but unfortunately
the time you realize you're in danger, it is too late to react successfully. You never hear this argument with other crimes. If the victim had not gone to the mall, she wouldn't of been mugged, if the victim had not carried a purse, it would not have been stolen. It is time to take rape off the front page of the sports section and place it on the front page as a
crime, no matter who committed it. Rape is not a sport! Now our school system, which is supposed to be a safe environment outside the home, has been placed on the list as a crime area. It is time we demand that the criminals be behind locked doors, not the victims. —Brooks Ray UCO student
Politics gone to the dogs? t's nauseating. Turn on the television any year and the news is full of violence, sex and drugs (which some call the basics of Rock and Roll). But turn the old tube on any leap year, and you get to watch politicians call each other names like two 10-year-olds fight over a baseball bat. The sex, drugs and violence were better. As I said, it's nauseating. Each time something about politics is on the tube my mom starts on her homework, my dad continues works on his novel and my dog, who's feeling much better, thankyouverymuch, decides he needs to go outside to defecate. Taking my cue from the dog, I decide I need relief from these idiots. Politicians and my dog, whose name is Okie (neat name, huh?), have something in common. They both have a fragrance that's distinct to their species. In fact, Okie enjoys this act so much my father has nicknamed him appropriately. But instead of the expletive, we use a euphemism. That's right, we call him Doo Doo. Of course, he does his doo outside now because the last time he did his doo on the carpet my
I
dad almost did him in. As I said, my dog and politicians smell like crap. Crap, crap and crap piled on more crap. They also have other things in common. Dear ole dad likes to feed Okie from the table. So now that he's got the idea that food is on the table, he gives us the imploring look that only a cocker spaniel can. Of course, we have banned him from having any, but those puppy eyes can almost persuade anyone. Politicians have the same affect. If they smell a possible vote, they'll do anything. Giving the old 'tough guy-butsensitive' look or wanting to shake hands and kiss a baby. I wouldn't let Okie kiss a baby and I wouldn't let Sen. Don Nickles or any other politician kiss one. Who knows where their mouths or noses have been? Okie also likes to eat our cat's food (more on the cat next time ). Of course that gets on our cat's nerves. But Okie likes to eat anything except his own food. I understand, if I had a choice between fish or horse meat, I'd eat the fish. As always, politicians are digging into our pockets with more tax hikes for pay raises, and other
things that are worthless. Let's get real, if a politician wants a pay raise, tough luck. Get a job. As with all dogs, all politicians aren't like this. These are the abnormal ones that get into the news. The only dogs I see in the newspapers these days are Odie, Mannaduke, Snoopy and Daisy. And generally they are more aesthetically appealing than the daily politicians. One difference between my dog and a politician is that Okie has been neutered. If that was a requirement for the job, I'd guarantee that we'd have less wars and less candidates for president. Finally, I trust my dog. Okie is simple. If you feed him, pet him and say "Good Dog" he'll love you. He's a little spastic sometimes, and he sings in the middle of night, but he provides companionship. Dogs have a good sense on people, Okie generally knows who's good or bad. Did you see the dog that threw up when a certain Democratic nominee was keeping him for a voter in New Hampshire? I think I'll trust the dog. Except when it comes to cats. —T.A. Clark Guest Columnist

Record enrollment set By Allen Norbury Student Writer The University of Central Oklahoma made history this spring with its largest enrollment for a spring semester, according to the office of institutional research and planning enrollment statistics and demographics report for spring 1992. Enrollment figures were up 4.8 percent from last spring with a total of 14,350 students enrolled at the university, according to the report.
"The enrollment trend is positive," said Susan Martin, director of admissions and records. "People come back to school to retrain, get new credentials or update the ones they have," she said. The availability of financial aid is also a factor for persons returning to school, Martin said. However, freshman enrollment is down 7.5 percent from last spring. "The decline in freshman enrollment is because of smaller pools in high school and rising tuition costs," Martin said. More freshman are starting at junior col-
leges and then transferring, she said. Women represented 58 percent of the spring enrollment which is an increase of 1 percent from last spring, according to the report. Graduate students are the largest classification with 24 percent of the enrollment this spring, the report said. Martin said that UCO is focusing on transfer students from the junior college level. "The majority of students who graduate at an undergraduate level are transfers from other institutions," she said. V
Death toll rises in Azerbaijan MOSCOW (AP) — The Azerbaijani town of Shusha in the disputed region of NagornoKarabakh suffered heavy damage from intense Armenian artillery and rocket fire, with dozens of deaths reported, news agencies said Monday. Azerbaijani officials claimed that up to 50 people died in attacks during the weekend that left the town paralyzed. The casualty figures could not be independently confirmed. The two southern former Soviet republics of Armenia and Azerbaijan have been fighting an esca-
lating battle for control of Nagorno-Karabakkh for four years. More than 1,000 people have been killed in the predominantly Armenian region of Azerbaijan. Vagif Rustamov, a spokesman for Azerbaijan's president, Ayaz Mutalibov, said 50 people were killed and hundreds were wounded in Shusha. He said 70 buildings burned and fires could not be put out because water supplies were cut. The Turan news agency quoted Azerbaijani Defense Secretary Tahir Aliyev as saying 36 people
died in the shelling Sunday and the death toll was climbing. The Tass-Azerinform news agency said the situation in Shusha had become critical, with the water system knocked out and the electricity intermittently out. It said hospitals were crowded beyond capacity. The news agency, a part of the reorganized former state news agency Tass, also said the Azerbaijani settlement of Venjali was attacked by Armenians today. It said several people were wounded, but had no further details. V

The Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity held its First Annual 100- Inning Charity Softball Game on Saturday at the University of Central Oklahoma softball field. The game lasted from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. and was played by members, pledges and alumni of Sigma Tau Gamma along with local sororities. "I personally think the game went well for the first year and am looking forward to improving it all around for next year," said Sigma Tau Gamma President Tobey Simpson. Nearly $3,000 was raised by friends, family and local businesses to benefit the Baptist Boys Ranch in Edmond. The ranch will be given a check during a frater-
nity cook-out later this semester. Special jerseys were made up for the game and donors of $100 dollars or more earned a spot on the back. Donations of $100 were made by Hooters Restaurant, Sigma Kappa Sorority, Delta Zeta Sorority, Signs To Go, Sheets Printing, Tan Express, Hills Creations, Scott Cleaners and Thompson Book & Supply. Other $100 donations were made by Citizens Bank of Edmond, Bar W Enterprises, Continental Belton Co., Eagles Lodge #610, Eagles Lodge Ladies Auxiliary #610, Green Star Nursery in Harrah, Kickingbird Flowers and Gifts, Link Ranch in Newalla, RX Prescription Shop, United Supermarket, Video Warehouse, Witlaw Agency, Wynns IGA, and the Simpson Family.

Court upholds law restriction of insured elective abortions ST. LOUIS (AP)— A federal appeals court has upheld a Missouri law restricting insurance coverage for elective abortions. A veteran pro-choice attorney, Frank Susman, said Monday's decision by a three-judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals could signal the end of the landmark Roe vs. Wade Supreme
Court ruling. "I think it's clear that the 8th Circuit no longer considers Roe vs. Wade the law of the land," said Susman, who represented an anonymous woman in the current case. "There now has to be an undue burden." The lower court granted her re-
quest for summary judgment, reasoning that the statute lacked any relationship to the interests advanced by the state. The appeals panel ruled, however, that Coe had introduced no evidence that insurance policies covering elective abortions are unavailable or prohibitively expensive.

Broadcasts hidden WASHINGTON (AP) — Is it possible to designate a time of day for "indecent" broadcasts that can be hidden from children? A Supreme Court action Monday put the burden on the Federal Communications Commission to try. The justices left intact a lower court ruling that had thrown out a 24-hour ban on such radio and television programming. The lower court had said the ban, enacted by Congress, violated constitutionally protected freedom of expression. There must be a daily "safeharbor" period when such material is permitted on the airwaves, the lower court said. While the case was pending, the FCC informally decided the hours between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. was the time, under the theory that a parent had more control over children's activities then.
Peggy Charren, president of Action for Children's Television which fought the ban, said that was proper. If you push the time for material judged indecent much later into the evening, you may endanger some "very nice drama" dealing with adult situations from appearing in prime time, she said. She called the court's decision not to take the case "a victory for people to know that the place to take care of children is the off button in the home." But those fighting for the round-the-clock ban said that is silly. Indecent material, unlike legally obscene material, is constitutionally protected. It is defined by law as descriptions of "sexual or excretory activities or organs" in terms "patently offensive as measured by contemporary community standards for the broadcast medium." V

Pitching good for 2 UCO wins over E. Central
Tracksters dash off with 4 golds By Justin Harper Sports Editor Central Oklahoma's track teams made the most of their "last chance," Saturday, crowning three individual champions, a record breaking relay team and had nine runners place in the top three in their events. When the dust cleared, the teams ended up with 29 placers overall at the Last Chance Indoor Open in Norman. Leading the way was the men's mile relay team, which scorched the competition on its way to a school record and first-place fmish with a time of 3:18. The relay team, made up of Vince Tolbert, Mike Cheney, Bill Sheperd and Mike Houston, smashed the former record of 3:19, set in 1990. For the men, Kyle Skartwed took first in the 5,000-meter race with a time of 15:20 followed by Bill Shepards' first place dash of 6.3 in the 55. Vince Tolbert then placed third in the 400 with a 50.3 timming, and Jeremy Kie ran a 1:55 in the 800 to 'place second. Skartwed then returned to take second in the 3,000 in 8:47 while Kevin Nichols finished third in the shot put with a throw of 46'10 1/4"

Nicki Strohmeyer came on to take third in the 200 with a 27.9 timing. The women's mile relay team of Stufflebeam, Strohmeyer, Stephanie Collins and Mylissa Hall placed third in a time of 4:29. V

At stake for the 22-5 Bronchos is an automatic bid to the NCAA II playoffs and regional telecast of Saturday's championship, shown locally at 3 p.m. on cable channel 35. UCO clinched its second-striaght co-LSC title this year, tying Texas A&I with a 10-2 league record.

Superior pitching lifted Central Oklahoma's baseball team to back-to-back 6-2 victories in a double-header sweep of East Central Tuesday afternoon in Edmond. Greg Hamm went the distance in the opener for his first win, allowing just four hits and striking out five. Hamm was supported by a fourrun fourth inning, in which Jon Edwards, Joel Heath and Rodd Melton each collected base hits. Wagner Wicks, a freshman hurler from Lubbock, Texas, (Coronado), scattered six hits over six innings and also struck out five batters in the closer. Reliever Walt Olson replaced Wicks in the seventh and retired the final three hitters in order, striking out two. Brian Wood provided insurance with a homer, and Ryan Melton and Bryan McGee each scored after reaching on base hits. Melton later added a runscoring double in the fifth and scored on a sacrifice by Price Rogers. V

Breakfast foods not always nutritious sant at Dunkin Donuts is soaked with six teaspoons of grease, making up 60 percent of the 440 calories. A glazed chocolate doughnut has 324 calories, but 58 percent fat. Burger King serves a Croissan'wich with sausage, egg and cheese that has 534 calories, nearly 70 percent of which is fat. If breakfast meat is a must, choose bacon or ham over sausage. A Hardee's ham biscuit has 320 calories and 45 percent fat, while its sausage biscuit has 440 calories and 57 percent fat. Cutting the meat out altogether trims sodium by 30 percent. Biscuits alone are half fat. Instead, try a bagel, or an English muffin, which has about 170 calories (including margarine) and only 26 percent fat. Pancakes are another healthy choice. McDonald's Hotcakes with margarine and syrup are 410 calories, but only 20 percent fat. Add one-half pint of lowfat milk or orange juice and this meal has 124 percent of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of vitamin C, 40 percent RDA calcium, 14 percent RDA iron and 10 percent RDA vitamin A. For even fewer calories, choose jelly instead of margarine and syrup as a pancake topping. McDonald's also serves fat-free
By Penny Owen
Staff Writer Until 1972, only doughnut makers got up at dawn to serve the public its breakfast. Then McDonald's launched the Egg McMuffin and within 10 years, breakfaston-the-run became the fast-food industry's new billion-dollar baby. But success does not breed good nutrition. While some breakfast items, such as Dunkin Donuts' egg bagel, are low in fat and high in vitamins and fiber, most still have over 40 percent fat andtoo much sodium and cholesterol. Even some nutritious-sounding items mislead. For instance, Hardee's introduced an oat-bran muffin which has about the same fat (18 grams) and calories (440) as McDonald's Quarter Pounder. Dunkin Donuts recently replaced egg yolks with egg whites in all but four of its doughnuts. This eliminated the cholesterol, but had little effect on calories and fat. And they're still fried, although now with vegetable oil. Both Burger King and Dunkin Donuts now serve croissants, which have more fat than any other pastry item, including donuts. For instance, a chocolate crois-
apple and blueberry muffins. A breakfast of one muffin, a bowl of Cheerios and orange juice has only 450 calories and a mere six percent fat, but plenty of vitamin 2, vitamin A, iron and calcium. Some absolute tragedies in fastfood breakfasts are:

• Hardee's Big Country Breakfast with sausage, orange juice and lowfat milk. Even with lowfat milk, this breakfast has 1,053 calories, 53 percent fat, 358 mg cholesterol and 2,104 mg sodium.

Arts symposium set for April 8
Senators refuse loan plan WASHINGTON (AP) — What began in Congress as a grandiose plan to help millions of middleincome students get college loans is being cut drastically, a victim of skepticism and heavy lobbying by banks. The idea was simple: Colleges and universities would act as lender, bypassing banks and other financial institutions. The student's pay-back schedule would be based on income, with the IRS collecting the payments. Banks and other players in the $4.8 billion student loan game stand to lose significantly, despite the rising default rates on college loans. Also, some college administrators are wary of excessive governmental instrusion, even if IRS involvement would be peripheral. And, in this election year, members of Congress are showing little patience for time-consuming debate over an unproven program — even if it is an alternative to a student loan system that's been described as bureaucratic and frustrating. The Senate refused to consider
March 5, 1992
THE VISTA
the idea during the debate on reauthorization of the Higher Educaion Act. Still, the main proponents of the plan — Sens. Paul Simon, D-Ill., and Dave Durenberger, RMinn. — remain optimistic that "something will get passed" this year. The original plan has been scaled down to a test by 300 colleges and universities. Proponents want to offer the new version to the Senate Finance Committee when it begins a review of a tax bill. The pilot program would operate parallel to the Pell Grants and Guaranteed Student Loans. Any students attending the 300
selected schools could borrow up to $5,000 a year, with a total limit of $30,000. The interest rate would equal the 52-week rate on Treasury bills plus 2 percentage points. The loans would be repaid by increased IRS withholding. Simon says direct student loans will reduce defaults, which have cost taxpayers $11.5 billion since 1985. The American Bankers Association vehemently opposes the plan, calling it "inefficient and expensive." It contends that students and taxpayers would end up paying more interest because the repayment term would be 25 years rather than 10 years. V
By Chad Richison Student Writer The 1992 Liberal Arts College Student Scholarship Symposium will be presented April 8 on the University of Central Oklahoma campus. The symposium is sponsored by the New Plains Review, a literary publication published yearly at UCO and consisting entirely of student work. "The symposium is an opportunity for students to pre-
sent their ideas in front of others and gain experience through writing and communicating," said Roger Groce, special projects coordinator for the event. In 1991, approximately 100 students participated in the symposium, he said. The deadline for students to enter the symposium is March 11. Students must submit an outline of their 10 to 20 minute presentation to room 105G in the Liberal Arts Building or call 341-2980 ext. 5629. V
PRINCIPLES o f SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
Comedian brings laugh to UCO By Mark McMahill Student Writer Last week, the Pegasus Theater at the University of Central Oklahoma was filled with laughter during a performance by comedian and MTV personality Jay Mohr. The hour-and-a-half show consisted of many different topics ranging from high school kickball to Vanilla Ice. A portion of the show consisted of Mohr choosing unsuspecting members in the audience to ask questions. Most of the questions confused the students, but at the same time made them laugh hysterically. While most of his material consisted of clean humor, just enough adult humor was added to even things out. Jay Mohr is a 20-year-old New York native, and is in the middle of his U.S. College Tour titled, "Attitude Included." Besides being a stand-up comic, Mohr is the host of the new MTV talent show, Lip Service. As host he leads contestants through several rounds of lip synching obstacles on their way to big prizes. The performance was sponsored by the Cultural Arts Committee.

WASHINGTON, Pa. (AP) - Charles Pravlik never thought being a police officer would be this easy. Two motorists asked the rookie patrolman to arrest them over the weekend, confessing they were too drunk to drive. The first driver tailgated Pravlik's cruiser Friday night, honking his horn. Pravlik pulled over and the driver walked up, threw his keys on the hood and said, "Arrest me. I'm drunk." Charges are pending against the man. Early Saturday, the driver of a car stopped at an intersection got out, walked back to the patrol car and said he was too intoxicated to drive. That motorist passed a sobriety test and was released.
Would-be burglar dials 911 LOS ANGELES (AP) - A man dialed 911 to tell police he'd climbed into a liquor store by cutting a hole in a roof but couldn't find a way to get out. When they got there, they could see him sitting on the floor by the front counter, smoking a cigarette and drinking a beer," said Sgt. John O'Neal. "The cigarettes and the lighter were his. Robert William Laughton, 23, was arrested early Sunday for investigation of burglary and held on $5,000 bail. Laughton had climbed onto the roof from a trash bin, cut a hole near an air duct and jumped down into the store, O'Neal said.
The bill calls for the garage to be funded from a flat fee charged to students each semester, with the amount to be determined in the future. A proposal requesting changes in long distance billing for UCO housing was also offered amid
