Pell grants not affected

Scholarships, fellowships targeted by 1986 tax law By Mary Martin Student Writer A law passed in 1986 that is designed to tax certain scholarship and grant funds has caught many people on Central State University's campus off guard. Beginning in 1987, the law taxes money students receive that is not used for tuition, books, fees, supplies and equipment, according to David Stell, spokesman for the Internal Revenue Service in Oklahoma City. 0

"Amounts from a scholarship or fellowship grant used for expenses such as room and board or travel are not excludable from income," Stell said. The changes apply to those scholarships granted after Aug. 16, 1986.

scholarship programs will be effected most," said CSU Assistant Football Coach Kenny Blair.

"You cant work to pay the taxes on your scholarship. I can just imagine the IRS raiding a football field when you have millionaires beating the system for hundreds and thousands of dollars," Butler said.

In addition to the requirement of paying taxes on scholarship funds not used for school related expenses, the latest tax laws also make taxes mandatory for all scholarship and grant funds received by students after Aug. 16 1986 if they drop out of school.

"All I can do is read the new rules and try to go by the regulations as to what is legal and what is right," said John Kelly, CSU assistant athletic director. "We take it semester by semester and advise the kids accordingly. We are here to educate the kids," Kelly said. "Even the students who don't live on campus will feel the crunch, but as a whole, the athletic department and all

"If there is some doubt whether a student's grant qualifies as a scholarship or fellowship, the person can call toll free 1-800-424-1040 or refer to publication 520of the IRS, Scholarships and Fellowships, to answer the questions," Stell said. According to Yvonne D. Maxwell, assistant director of financial aids at CSU, federal grants are not considered fellowship grants.

Police still searching for attackers By Scott Wheeler

Edmond Police are still searching for two suspects whom they believe are responsible for the rape of one Central State University coed and attempted rape of another, according to Jan Montgomery, spokesperson for the Edmond Police. Police said a suspect in one incident, described by the victim as a black male, approximately fivefoot-seven-inches, 140-155 pounds, entered through a window at Brentwood Forest apartments.

The suspect waited until the victim returned home at approximately 3 a.m. and then raped her. Police said an apparently unrelated rape attempt occured at 10:45 a.m. Feb. 10 near campus. Police said the attacker, who could not be identified, placed a knife to the victim's throat and forced her toward a nearby building. The victim pulled a pin from her pocket and stabbed him in the groin and again in the lower abdomen. After the attacker reportedly let

go, the victim ran to her van and left the scene. She received a slash wound on the right side of her neck. Montgomery said the attacker could not be identified because he wore a gray ski mask with a red top. "These two incidents were probably not done by the same individual," Montgomery said. The man who raped the CSU coed at Brentwood Forest apartments is also suspected of raping an elderly woman in February, Montgomery said.

Extension courses granted regular credit From Staff Reports Oklahomans will have a greater opportunity to pursue college degrees under a plan approved by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education at its February meeting. The plan abolishes the distinction between regular academic credit and extension credit courses. Extension courses will earn

regular credit beginning in the Fall 1988 semester. Bob Parker, coordinator of on campus programs with the Outreach Program, said extension courses will have to meet higher standards to qualify for the credit. The regents' staff indicated the proposed outreach program change would help bring that facet of higher education into the mainstream of public higher

education. "The staff believes that the policy represents a major step forward in moving Oklahoma higher education toward the 21st century," a report released by the board said. The regents said they recognized that many non-traditional students benefit from approved courses at off-campus locations or through the electronic media.

Viewpoints

Editor's decision upsets student To the editor: Jack Money, the editor of The Vista, is, in my opinion, stifling the free expression of the ideas and opinions of Central State University students with his repressive editorial policy. It seems that Money believes my expression of opinion in a letter to the editor must be based solely on cold hard facts to be publishable, unless it is his opinion. For example, Money wrote, "I can't think of a better way CSU could have set a trend than to have allowed the sale of condoms." What nonsense. Let's not "set a trend" by having the best school of journalism in the state of Oklahoma. Let's not "set a

trend" by having the finest university library in the state of Oklahoma. Let's sell condoms as the best way to make our university noteworthy. His comment is not based on fact. It is not substantiated by any statistical evidence. But he published it...because it was his opinion. On the other hand, I wrote a letter to the editor indicating that I thought the passage of condom legislation was an example of how the CSU student legislature had made a "grotesque mockery" of the legislative process. My letter was not published, according to Jack Money, because it was not established by "fact." Is Money protecting the student legislature from criticism? Or, will

he find any excuse to reject a letter, the contents of which he objects to? As I believe Money has violated his sacred duty to protect The Vista from editorial abuses, I call for his dismissal as editor of the newspaper. If Money must be permitted to continue to fiddle with the contents of The Vista, I strongly sug-

gest that he be reduced to writing headlines, but only if he is closely supervised by a qualified journalist. G.A. Toler Editor's note: G.A. Toler's letter which refers to the "grotesque mockery" of the legislative process was witheld from publication. But, it was not witheld because

of lack of "fact." I witheld it because its meaning was unclear. But, after Toler talked to me, I read the letter again, and I noticed one excellent suggestion. He said if less than 20 percent of the student population participates in the next campus wide election, the senate should be disbanded until the next election.

Commentary is an underground news alternative dedicated to exploring non-violent forms of protest and social change.

PURSUIT Ridiculous facts concerning pizza and its origins...

By Mike Chin and Chris Sommer The Supreme Court's ruling on the censorship of high school newspapers affected many people and publications, but one Central State University student Yash Bagwanji has refused to aknowledge the ruling by producing an alternative newspaper called Commentary. Bagwanji holds a degree in news reporting and psychology from Kansas and is currently majoring in special education at CSU. Commentary focuses on nonauthoritative philosophy. The short articles, quotations, poems and other materials in this publication are compiled solely by him. "My objective is to tie philosophy with art and present a different way of looking at life," said Bagwanji. "The theme of Commentary is a counterattack on the exploitation of human beings, specifically women, animals and natural resources," he said. "Understanding moderation and questioning the existence of money and capitalism are also other major issues." Bagwanji said articles in Commentary are compiled and written in relation to current events such as voting and taxes. "I gather sources anywhere, from books to songs, he added. "I don't have any set publication dates. When I have enough material to produce a four page paper and the money to produce it I take it to Kinkos or some other copy shop," Bagwanji said. "Only 40 to 50 copies are ran off. I don't sell advertising and the money comes out of my pocket." Bagwanji added that he is the only editorial staff.

"My aim in this publication is to explore non-violent forms of protest and social change such as leading alternative lifestyles and living simple lives," he said. "I try to point out the beautiful and the ugly in Commentary. You really can't have one without the other." He said that a combination of creativity with realism is essential in achieving a sense of responsibility and control within ourselves. Bagwanji said he is not an extremist. CSU is not the only school where students are producing an underground newspaper. On the campus Northeastern Oklahoma State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma The Front made The Northeastern's front page. The Front, an eight page paper, consists of news, features, entertainment, cartoons and local advertisements. Under the name plate it reads; "We raise hell the old fashioned way/We print it." Joshua Smith, a Tulsa freshman, is the paper's managing editor. In its first issue The Front condemned the Greek system on NEOSU. A member of one of their sororities said The Front used foul language and their reputation is questionable. Several other Greek members claim the paper is making the campus look bad because it is promoting fake I.D.s, drugs and sex. However, some students said The Front may have brought some of the problems of the fraternities to light, but their methodology in doing it may not be sound. Smith said he's producing the paper because he wanted to "liven up this boring campus." According to Smith The Front is the student voice from non-journalism students.

Bagwanji said Commentary was in no way connected with The Front. Unlike Smith, who has had problems with some of his readers, Bagwanji said no one has really showed any opposition. "I feel we have two entirely different goals," Bagwanji said. "I'm just presenting the facts as I see them. I'm not trying to draw any conclusions."

On Campus... University Productions at Mitchell Hall Theatre will present the following events during the month of March: The Bronze and Blue Review, Central State University's annual talent show, will begin at 7:30 p.m. March 10.

Very few pizza eaters partake of the delicacy while wearing a bag over their heads... except, however, for one area of rural Toledo where all girls are urged to wear brown sacks until the age of 18 ...and one small town in the wine growing region of Italy where everyone is "in the bag."

The rapid expansion of our fleet - already one of the largest in the skies - has created new openings for flight attendants.

Sunny skies turn to wet weather

Campus shorts

By Chris Sommer

Associate Editor Central State University students woke up last Tuesday to sunny skies and light breezes, but by the end of the afternoon severe weather warnings were already being broadcast, signaling perhaps an early start to Oklahoma's infamous tornado season. Not to be outwitted by the weather, Gov. Henry Bellmon declared Feb. 28 — March 5 as "Tornado and Emergency Preparedness Week."

CSU Accounting club to meet The Accounting Club will meet at 7 p.m. March 7 in the Unversity Center Council Room. Agents from the Internal Revenue Service will be guest speakers.

SDX to feature speaker Sigma Delta Chi, the Society of Professional Journalists, will meet at 6:30 p.m. March 9 in the Journalsim Hall of Fame Room. Don Birchfield, editor of Oklahoma City Camp Crier, will speak about jobs, free lance writing tips and important information to future journalists.

Spring storms strike quickly and can do a great deal of damage to life and property, according to meteorologist Wayne Shattuck.

Tiaras to hold membership drive The Tiaras Club have set the deadline for applying for membership at 3 p.m. March 9. Applications can be picked up in the Administration Building, room 213.

One of the greatest threats during a spring thunderstorm is tornados. They can develop in any month of the year, but the majority strike in March, April, May and June with May being the peak month. Oklahoma is the victim of an average of 53 tornados a year. On a list of tornados which have killed 50 or more people, Oklahoma appears five times. In 1947, Woodward, Ok. had 169 deaths from one tornado. Texas averages 119 tornados a year.

Delta Zeta Sorority to hold dinner Delta Zeta Sorority will have a chili dinner at 6 p.m. March 10 at the Delta Zeta Sorority house. Cost is $2.50 in advance and $3 at the door.

Fee-waiver scholarship deadline set The English department is accepting applcations for five $300 feewaiver scholarships from full-time students who are or will be English majors or minors. Students who have received scholarships may reapply. Interested students should come by the English department, room 101B and pick up an application. Deadline for applications is April 1.

Creative studies department to hold workshop

According to the National Weather Service of the United States Department of Commerce, there are two types of tornado alerts. A tornado watch means conditions are favorable for tornado development. The Weather Service said people should be familiar with "safe spots" when

The creative studies department will hold a workshop on Writing Children's Literature at 9 a.m. April 9 in the Liberal Arts Auditorium.

threatening conditions are present. A tornado warning indicates that a tornado has been reported, and for one to take cover immediately if the tornado is in or near the warning area. According to Shattuck's booklet, Surviving Oklahoma's Weather, Oklahoman's should be aware of dark clouds rotating downward from the storm's base, large hail, heavy rain, strong winds, intense and frequent lightning and any loud roar like the sound of a jet or train. According to the Weather bureau, Oklahoma experiences these windy visitors because the state is situated where heavy flows of warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico roll across the the plains. From the west, there is an abundant stream of air dried by the Rocky Mountains, and just as the springtime sun begins to warm the ground, huge cold air masses push in from the northern plains. Tornados develop from thunderstorms. The storms form when a mass of warm moist air pushes against a body of warm dry air and then encounters a cold front. As they move together, the warm air rises, cools and forms water droplets which appear as clouds. As the warm air continues to rise, more air from the ground is drawn into the updraft. The updraft increases in speed and strength and the top of the cloud rises higher. If the moist air rises high enough, it cools violently, becomes too heavy to support

itself and begins to fall as precipitation. A tornado develops when upper level winds sheer across the tops of the storm, tilting the cell. The updraft continues and strengthens and the mass begins rotating. It tightens, accelerates and forms a vortex — a tornado.

Symphonic band to tour state From Staff Reports Central State University's 80-piece symphonic band will tour Oklahoma March 7, 8 and 9, according to Lee Rucker, CSU music instructor. Rucker said the tour is primarily a recruitment trip. "We try to go to schools that have students we would like to enroll in our music department," he said. The tour will begin at 11 a.m. at Deer Creek High School. Graduate assistant Chris Cord said the Dixieland band and brass quintet will also perform. "The Dixieland jazz bands have been national finalists five times in the college Dixieland competition and twice were named national champions," said Cord. "The Dixieland bands have also performed at big league baseball pregame shows and have appeared on "The Today Show," "Mery Griffin Show" and on "The Tonight Show." Jazz Ensemble Number One recently returned from the French Riviera where they were one of only four American groups invited to perform at the annual Nice, France carnival.

Sports Broncho matmen denied fifth- straight title By Mary Butler Sports editor The reign is over. After ruling the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics' wrestling world for four straight years, the Central State University wrestling team surrendered its hold on the NAIA national grappling championship Saturday night in Tacoma, Washington. Fifth-seeded Simon Fraser, battling the Bronchos for the lead throughout the three-day tourney, captured the national title with the help of Pacific University's Chuck Ahsmuhs. Ahsmuhs stifled defending national champion Todd Steidley's repeat hopes in the 142-pound contest when he dealt the Broncho grappler an overtime defeat in the finals Saturday night. The loss smothered any chance for a CSU team championship. Winning six out of seven of their opening matches, CSU stormed through the first round of the tournament. Paced by Shawn Fleming, who provided a pin to start CSU's effort in the tourney, the Bronchos entered the quarterfinals 1 1/2 points behind the surprise early leader, Northern Montana. Steidley, the No. 1 seed in the 142-p_ ' '-‘racket, earned an 18-6 major decision over John Karl from Wisconsin-Parkside University and defeated Dave Mortenson from Minot State University 8-2 to move into the quarterfinals.

Simon Fraser snares crown in final round Kevin Freeman also handed his first-round foe a fall, and added a 17-7 major decision in his secondround bout to follow Steidley into the next phase of the tourney. Johnny Nimmo, the defending national champion at 158 pounds, and No. 1 tourney seed, lived up to his pre-tourney top billing with 16-4 and 17-4 major decisions over wrestlers from the University of Mary and Dickinson State University. Richard Agee, seeded fifth in the event, provided a surprising boost for the Broncho team. Agee turned in a 15-5 major Acision over David Wesson from Gardner-Webb and added an 11-6 triumph over Mark Oliver of Kearney State University. Jimmy Filippo also produced a Broncho major decision in the opening round. Filippo topped Scott Russell from Dickinson 17-4, but couldn't complete a comeback from an early 9-2 deficit against Northern State University's Eddie Clark, and lost 14-13. Curtis Riley, bowing to Bill Walker of Central Washington 4-3, dropped the only CSU firstround match. After tearing through the quarterfinals, CSU controlled an 82-69 1/2 lead over Simon Fraser in the team standings. Four out of five of the Bronchos who entered the semifinals pushed their way into the final round of the tourney.

Fleming pinned Steve Mead of Pacific Luthern College 2:22 into his first bout and whipped Willie Pyette from Western Montana University 11-6 in his first- and second-round matches. The Broncho sophomore then contained the No. 4 tourney seed, Rodney Romero of Adams State University 8-2 and knocked off Billy Johnson, the defending 118-pound national champion, 4-2 to advance into the title round. Steidley won another pair of matches to earn a spot in the finals. The CSU senior clipped Trevor Londgren from Minnesota-Duluth University 7-5, and inched past Mark Jenkins of Waynesburg College 10-9. Freeman, a third place national finisher in 1986, had little trouble romping by Mark Dubey from Wisconsin-Parkside University 12-4, and Tim Blatter from Western Montana University 10-5. Nimmo pulled off a reverse with 20 seconds on the clock and added a near fall in the final three seconds of his match against Chris Wilson of Simon Fraser to post a 5-3 victory. Nimmo then picked up a win against Jeff Marshall from Southern Oregon University 8-2 to find his way into the finals for the second time in two years. Agee, a Broncho junior, fell short in his bid for a championship round berth. The 167-pound

Broncho lost to the defending national champ 20-7 in a semifinal contest. Entering the final stage of the tourney, the Bronchos trailed Simon Frazer 96 1/2-85 and needed a combination of three Broncho national champions and three Simon Fraser final round losses to win their fifth NAIA title. Simon Fraser obliged. Only one SFU grappler (through 167 pounds) managed a win in the

final round. Ed Sernoski decisioned Freeman 12-5 in the 150-pound contest. But the Bronchos could produce only one individual national champion. Nimmo edged Bill McDonald from Southwest Minnesota State University 5-2 to claim his second national crown. Fleming, lost his first major decision of the year to CarsonNewman's Jeffrey Wright 12-2 in the 118-pound championship. And Steidley lost his 142-pound bout in overtime.

Track and field squads hope to tighten grip on District 9 Hoping to strengthen their stronghold on the District 9 track and field circuit, the Central State University men's and women's track teams will open their seasons Wednesday afternoon at Langston University. District 9 co-champions a year ago, the ladies squad will be gunning for sole possession of the area crown. Fortified by sophomore Amber Tilley, who placed in nine individual events at last season's district championships, the CSU gals should be serious contenders for the district title. "The girls are strong performers. It looks like they'll take

up where they left off last year," said CSU coach Paul Parent. "Several of our women will be outstanding. We have a nucleus for a fine team." Along with Tilley, seniors Vonda McEachern and Shelly Parent should provide the lady Bronchos with a firm foundation. McEachern is a junior sprinter from Buffalo. Parent, a senior from Grove, Calif., handles CSU's shot and discus chores. Last year, a youthful Broncho track and field outfit stumbled in its quest for CSU's eighth straight Distict 9 championship. The men were upended by Oklahoma Christian College. Although still plagued by

youth, the Bronchos should make a run at the district crown. "I think we'll be a viable opponent for the District 9 championship. The top three teams will probably be Oklahoma Baptist University, Oklahoma Christian College and CSU. We're a little younger than those teams, but we're not as young as last year," said Parent. Jeff Brown, a Ponca City senior, will anchor the Bronchos in the highjump. Senior Joe Dingal, an Edmond product should also provide leadership on the field. Senior runners Dallas Tice and Mitch Nelson will also be called on to provide stability for Parent's young squad.

Students surveyed in class by Monica Kremeier The general impressions of students who conducted an informal poll on the race for president were, for the most part, disappointing. With Super Tuesday fast approaching., Gwynne Hunter, assistant professor of English, decided the political race would be the perfect topic for her second semester freshman English class who were "practicing_ techniques of information retrieval." Carole Doss said she felt those she interviewed were "not very informed." Another student, Tyrone Daniels, said that "a Vietnamese student, who was not even a United States citizen, knew more about the political candidates than most of the other people I interviewed."

Caran Parkhurst said that those she interviewed "felt that the representation of the candidates by the media was dishonest." Added Kim Wiley, "one person said that the issues were beimg discussed, but that they were sayina what we wanted to hear." Each member of the class was required to interview ten subjects, five male and five female. Seventy subjects were interviewed in all. Out of those seventy subjects, fifty-seven were reaistered voters. Questions such as "name two democratic candidates and two republican candidates for president in 1988," or "what are your sources of information concerning the candidates and the issues," and "do you feel the information you are getting is honest and accurate," were some of the ones used in the poll.
