Martin clears computer terminal confusion By Tim Ray In the past, some students have been confused as to who can use the computer terminals located throughout the campus. Terminals are designed for the use of students that are enrolled in computer science courses or in computer assisted instruction (CAI) programs.
"I think where some of the confusion results is that they'll see a student taking a psychology CAI

sets up some kind of activity on them. They're not limited, for example, to computer science or math," he said. Martin said the CAI classes are not designated as such in the class schedule. The decision to have a CAI class is left up to the instructor, and is a class-by-class decision, not a course-by-course decision. "For example," said Martin, "some of the psychology instructors don't make use of the psychology CAI packages. And if an instructor decides he is going to include computer usage as part of the course, then it's up to the instructor to provide that activity." Martin said that the number of courses using the system is far from a majority. Some of the courses that use the system are Spanish, funeral service, biology, physics, psychology and several of the math courses; however, the computer science courses are the heaviest used.

The computer room of the new Math and Science Building proves to be a popular place for several students through the day as the 30 terminals available for use are in constant demand. Terminals are located throughout the campus in the library, Math Building, Evans Hall, Howell Hall, Liberal Arts Building and Old North.

Building, two in the Liberal Arts Building and one in Old North. Martin said students are not restricted to certain terminals. "The primary terminals students will use will be primarily in the library, the new Math and Computer Science Building or in the old Math Building. They're free to use one anywhere they can' get one. We haven't set it up to where anyone's restricted to any area," he said. Terminals in the Math and Science Building have been available for student use since the beginning of the spring semester. The CSU computer center will be holding a meeting at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday in room 109 of the new Math and Computer Science Building to discuss current activities and problems with timesharing computer assisted instruction. The meeting is for faculty using the computer assisted instruction in their classes. Students having questions, suggestions or criticism of the timesharing system can direct their questions to Sam Martin, academic programmer at the Math and Computer Science Building.

Problems hinder standards
United States commits to higher education By Eva Galipeau "No other country shares our great committment to higher education. Our decentralized government does not attempt to tell us in detail who is admitted and what is taught," commented Jack - Peltason, president of the American Council on Education, in a press conference March 8. Peltason is the first in a series of distinguished statesmen and scholars to visit the campus this semester, sponsored jointly by Dr. Bill Lillard, university president, the political science department and the Bureau of Government Service. The function of the Council on Education is to further the cause of higher education including such aspects as government relations, international relations and policy analysis. "In chacteristic American fashion, higher education institutions get together (through the
Council) to discuss problems and necessary changes," Peltason explains. Some of the problems Peltason views as hinderances to effective education include lack of funding and declining academic standards. "It's hard to persuade (the public) that funding needs to increase even though the number of 18-year-olds is declining," Peltason claims. He also states that as a nation we must maintain adequate academic standards and be wary of falling behind in the international technology race. "Signs of increasing technology bring a growing recognition that we cannot remain competitive in a global market," Peltason explains. "We did not become the richest nation because we have more people or more oil—we are the richest nation because we have more knowledge."

Peltason is concerned about the effect the budget crisis will have on higher education, but remains optimistic about the future of the system. "Our government is so big and higher education is such a big part of it, that it is expected that frequently legislation will affect the educational system," he said. "Education will have a higher priority in the future as people
recognize its importance. By the 1990's, enrollment should start back up," Peltason concludes. In addition to Monday's press conference, Peltason's three-day visit also included several student lectures and public addresses. His lectures were the first in the series, "Edging into the Eighties--A Continuation," which will later feature former Speaker of the House, Carl Albert.

Basements safe from tornados By Mark Spears Staff Writer
Oklahoma is hit by an average of 62 tornados a year according to Fred Norman, Channel 5 weatherman. A tornado defined in the Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary is "a violent destructive whirling wind accompanied by a funnel-shaped cloud that progresses in a narrow path over the land." There were about 92 tornados reported last year, but most of them caused no substantial damage. There were approximately three to five reported in the Metro and surrounding areas last year. "The pattern has been set and the odds favor a fairly active year. It should be an average to above average year," said Norman. Tornados are serious business in Oklahoma and in the Oklahoma City area. If one was to hit the CSU campus and Edmond community most students may not know were to go.
If a tornado is in this area, notification will be made by the Edmond emergency system. A siren will sound only if a tornado is likely to strike the area immediately or within 15 minutes. If the sirens sounds, students should proceed immediately to the nearest shelter area. The only authorized shelters on campus are the basements of the Art Building, Howell Hall (Science Building), Thatcher Hall and Old North. The Music Building (first floor) is also available. Other buildings on campus that are cornparitively safe, if people remain on the first floor and away from glass areas, are the Administration Building, Art Building, Business Building, Communications Building, East Hall, Health and Physical Education, Home Economics, Liberal Arts, Mathmatics Building, Thatcher Hall and West Hall. The Vista tried to contact Nimrod Chapel, maintenance coordinator, however, he was unavailable for comment.

Opinion Page 1•1_•1 • America must fight for allll po t cal prisoners By Mike Sherman The visit of Victor Herman should enlighten students and faculty alike on the plight of the oppressed under regimes where difference of thought or race is not tolarated. Herman, born and reared in the U.S. left for the Soviet Union in 1931 where his father helped establish a Ford Motor Com. plant. But in 1938, Herman was sent to a forced labor camp as part of Soviet leader Josef Stalin's purges against opposition and American's in Russia. Herman served in a labor camp until 1948. But this type of control or manipulation did not end with Herman's release. Thousands of men and women around the world are jailed for no other reason than because they differ from the "powers that be" in their politics. They carry no weapons and most would probably be unable to use them if they did. Although, some day a number of

these prisoners may gain freedom as Herman did, others have no hope of living outside the confines of their psychiatric ward, labor camp or jail. It is impossible to keep track of how many are the victims of this unjustness. Human rights groups like Amnesty Internation has made estimates, but their under-manned staffs are only making ball-park guesses. The Soviet Union, with at least 10,000, and Turkey, more than 15,000, may be the worst offenders.
Editorial What can be done? That is the real tragedy. None of the measures taken by the U.S. government in their struggle to fight human rights violations have solved the problem. If anything, President Jimmy Carter's foreign policy based on the human rights issue did nothing but make matters worse for some detainees. Carter's tonguelashings of the Soviets for their treatment of Jews resulted in a slowdown in emmigration for the Jews. Carter's tactics also suffered because he chose to turn his back on some
abuses, while going public in response to others. Allies occasionally were subjected to the President's verbal assaults and threats more than adversaries. And the Reagan administration, though not as overtly as that of Carter, has sought to liberate the oppressed. Reagan seemed ready to de-emphasize human rights and wage war against communism. But he insured the release of South Korean dissident Kim Dae Jung last December using what it terms "quiet diplomacy." Yet U.S. officials at the U.N. have attempted to make a distinction between "authoritarian" and "totalitarian" regimes in the fight against persecution of political dissidents. While Jeane Kirkpatrick, U.N. ambassador, and her staff can easily differentiate between "authoritarian" right-wing regimes friendly to Uncle Sam and "totalitarian" communism, it matters very little to someone who must build a but out of the Siberian ice or eat rats to survive what ideology the regime that sent them to this hell-hole follows. To worsen matters, the U.S. has received only token support from allies
in this fight. Close to half of the 157 members of the U.N. have some kind of political prisioners and less than half are willing to sign agreements to fight against subjecting humans to torture, exile or detention. When martial law was declared in Poland, some allies payed only lip-service to the plight of the trade union Solidarity and to U.S. trade sanctions. This lack of backing, however, is no reason to discontinue the battle. Each violation of human rights should carry with it a means by which the U.S. should react. Quiet diplomacy is often desirable, but hinting around may not work. Hard-nosed measures may be needed too, and it knowledge of someone skilled and experienced in the field to know when to apply these methods. It will also require careful examination by them, because there are no experts in this field. But consistency is the key. All abuses should be responded to and none should be overlooked, for a country which prides itself as being the "keeper of freedom" can not afford to ignore this tragedy of the politically oppressed.
Increase drinking age may keep teenage drunk drivers off roads By Dwayne Long Over 250 people are estimated to be killed this year on the nation's highways according to the pamphlet "These Times." The pamphlet furthers state that these deaths are a direct result of drunk driving. Perhaps this is why the state senators are wishing to raise the legal drinking age. The present legal drinking age for 3.2 beer in Oklahoma stands at 18; however, if the state senators get their way, the age would be increased to 21. Unfortunately some of the congressmen, including House Speaker Dan Draper, thinks the problems of drunk drivers could be solved by increasing the age to 19. On the other hand, most of the democrats in the House wish the age to be 21 and while all of the debating is taking place, young people are still driving "under the influence" causing hazardous conditions to not only themselves, but also to other drivers.
Draft to have 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 it 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
The major problem in the passage of legislation to raise the legal age includes the dispute over statistics pertaining to the drunk drivers and the stype of alcohol involved. Another problem stems from congressmen that represent college district areas where raising the age could effect business.
Editorial Records show that the 18-24 age group has the highest rate of drunk driving deaths. The debate that stems from this is, what type of alcohol was used, was the alcohol taken with another drug substance and how much alcohol was consummed? Frankly those are pertinent questions however the deaths are still related to some form of drinking. Legal age for purchasing hard liquor in Oklahoma is presently at age 21. Perhaps a study should be conducted
to see how this legal age has prevented youngsters from purchasing liquor. Or would such a study be necessary? Several senators feel that 21 is a good age for responsibility, and 19 would not really decrease the problems significantly. It is fine to consider that people should have fun, whether at college or at a local bar, but when that fun interrupts another person's life, it is no longer fun. It is quite possible that the debate for the legal age to be raise may go on for several months, but as this takes place the highways are still full of hazardous, careless drunk drivers. Until all the kinks are ironed out of the legal age for purchasing beer, the state troopers, county sheriff and local police officers will continue to fight a never ending battle of keeping the drunk driver off the roads. After all, who wants to be added to the long list of death statistics related to alcohol?
• 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 committed to combat in North Africa. However, this is 1983, we don't 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

State,local, world news Nebraska map incorrect If anyone plans a camping trip to Nebraska for the first time and they happen to get lost, you better stop and ask a resident for directions, because following a road map won't help a bit. The numbering system for locating the 82 state and federal camping locations in Nebraska is incorrect for 77 of the campgrounds. For example, on the map, Fort Robinson State Park is listed as number 82. In the index, Lodgepole State Wayside Park is listed as 82 and it is more than 130 miles from Fort Robinson. Lodgepole is 86 on the map. Public information manager for the Department of Roads, Charles Munger said that the problem started when staff members noticed a park had been left off the map and in an effort to make the correction the system "got out of whack." The state has just printed 1.75 million copies of the map and, because of expense, the maps will not be reprinted. But if you get lost, don't worry, the corrections will be made in the 1985-86 edition of the map and should be available in two years. Munger commented that because maps are so complicated there has never been a perfect map, but he thought that they came pretty close.
Students to build solar home Students at the Southeast Kansas Vo-Tech School in Coffeyville, Kan. have begun building a passive solar home, their first, after building 10 conventional homes in the past six years. Dr. Clair Murry, assistant director of the school said that since the school was interested in the students getting jobs when they graduate, the switch was made to building solar homes. He also said that they want to train their students for today's jobs rather than yesterday's jobs. Government funded study group, Mid-America Energy Complex supplied the school with the plans for the house. Murry said that the school chose to build a passive solar home over an active home because the passive home is cheaper and less complicated to build. Construction began last week and the house is expected to be completed by the end of 1983. Upon completion the house will be put up for sale.
Seesawers fall short of record Two Oklahoma City 10-year-olds passed up the chance to see a horror film in order to attempt to set a new world record in seesawing. The girls, Traci Jeffrey and Patricia Marsh, are fifth graders at Traub Elementary School and they began the quest for fame and the world record Saturday at 10:10 a.m. but even though they had all the supplies needed i to set a world record, such as hot chocolate and sandwiches, the two girls fell short of the record and had to stop at I,:10 a.m. after just 15 hours of serious seesawing. Traci said that they just got tired and cold, but they did keep going while it was raining. The Guiness Book of World Records has the seesawing record, held by two Alabama junior high students, listed at 730 hours completed in 1975. When asked what motivated them to attempt the feat, Traci answered, to get our names and picture in the paper and be famous.
Edmond plans new bank Plans were announced Friday for the development of the National Bank of Edmond to be constructed just south of 33rd Street and Boulavard. The organizers of the bank have learned that the Comptroller of the Currency has formally accepted their charter application. They should find out if the charter has been approved within 90 days. Estimated at $1.5 million, the new bank will be 5,000 square feet and will include seven teller stations, six drivein windows, an automatic teller and parking facilities for more than 80 vehicles. If the charter is approved it will be the first bank chartered in Edmond since 1976.
Speech, Hearing Clinic provides aid for impaired, student training By Kathie Slutter The CSU Speech and Hearing Clinic, located in Old North, serves more than one function. It not only provides help for people of all ages with speech and hearing difficulties, but also is part of the training program for speech and pathology students. In the program the students teach 108 weekly sessions at the
clinic. They must submit lesson plans and detailed reports to Dr. Howard Hackworth, coordinator, or one of the other four certified professors on staff. CSU is only one of three Oklahoma colleges and universities that offers an undergraduate degree program in speech pathology along with a graduate degree. "The graduate program is geared toward public school speech pathologists," said Hackworth. "Most of the classes are offered at night and during the summer so these people can attend." The program qualifies students for the national certificate and state license in speech pathology which can be transferred to other states. Graduate students are required to work 150 hours in the clinic and undergraduate students work 200 hours for their practicum. Students also gain experience
Howard Hackworth
by working off campus at the Easter Seal Society in Oklahoma City, Edmond Association of Retarded Citizens and student teaching with speech therapists. Another advantage of the CSU program is the small class size. "We are able to give individual attention to the students," said Dr. Paline Hook, assistant professor. "A large part of our responsibility is to the student. It's not so much what we tell them, but what we are to them." "Speech and education teachers are in big demand," said Hackworth. "Public Law 94142 mandates appropriate education for all children, which means schools must provide special programs for all the students who need it. There can be no "waiting lines," so more special education teachers are needed. Anyone interested in more information about the speech pathology program can contact Hackworth at 341-2980, ext. 705.
VA 10-year deadline extended Students obtaining veteran benefits to further their education have been granted an extension of the 10-year deadline according to recent changes in the law. Ray E. Smith, director of Muskogee's Veterans Administration (VA) Regional Office said the maximum period for a deadline date extension has been increased from two to three years and is retroactive to Jan. 1, 1982. To be eligible for the extension, the veteran must have had active
duty under conditions other than dishonorable, any part of which occurred during the Vietnam era (Aug. 5, 1964 through May 7, 1975) and be otherwise eligible for benefits under Chapter 34. Training must be in a program leading to a vocational objective and be pursued in a non-college degree course. College degree courses and flight training are not allowed under this program. However, college certificate programs which lead to a vocational
objective may qualify for enrollment under this program. Approximately 600 students of the university are taking advantage of their VA benefits this fall, according to Mary Collins of the CSU VA office. This new law will effect about 5 percent of the total enrollment and may enable them to complete or further their education. For further information concerning VA benefits, contact the VA office located in the Administration Building.

Advertising students awarded at state fair In an advertising promotion contest sponsored by the State Fair of Oklahoma, three CSU art students' works were chosen to be the most noteworthy. The winners were Earl Raney, James Lambertus and Harley Darnell. They are all students in Dr. Hall Duncan's Outdoor Advertising class. Each received a cash award of $50. Raney, whose theme of his work was "Hang on to a Memory," won in the category of "Most Promising Promotional Concept." Lambertus' theme was "The Number One Ten Day Fair." He won in the category entitled "Most Original Concept for Outdoors." Darnell won the "Best Developed Artistic Rendering." His theme was "Showing Pride Through the State Fair." According to Karen Phillips, promotion manager of the fair, every student that entered had very good promotable ideas which could be implemented well with more development. "Our decision on the concepts we considered most noteworthy was extremely difficult." said Phillps. Dr. Duncan said he was pleased
with the results and that he is looking forward to more opportunities in the near future to involve outside businesses with the outdoor advertising classes. "I have just received a notice from the Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream Company in Los Angeles that next spring they would like to have one of our class projects be a campaign for them," added Duncan. "I would like to include one of the marketing classes in the business department."

RAs solve student problems By Regina Langford In the midst of the academic and social affairs of the university, one can find a group of students busily going about the tasks to which they have been assigned. The people who walk the halls of the university dorms are not "enemy spies," they are resident assistants (RA). The RA works an average of 25/30 hours per week. The roles of an RA are quite varied. "A resident assistant is a maintenance person, peer counselor, and mediator," said West Hall RA Joy Tipton. Tipton further stated, "We serve as "buffers" between residents and residence authorities." An incoming freshman may be unclear as to the job of the RA within the dorm system. Cerphenia Checotah a West Hall Resident stated, "At the beginning of the school year, I was under the impression that the RA could answer all of the questions that
one might have about the dorm, I now feel that the RA can be as illinformed as the other residents." Checotah further stated, "This dorm would however, be in a state of utter confusion without the resident assistants." Sonia Owens of West Hall elaborated on the existing conditions, stating that the lack of communication between those who reside within West Hall is a major reason for the problems in West Hall. Owens further stated that an increase in activities within the dorm "would unite the residents more." Many resident assistants feel as though they are viewed by the residents as "the unofficial members of the Campus Security Force," said Lora White. White is one of five new resident assistants, joining the RA team this semester. The RA is in the dorms to assist the residents as often as possible.

New York tour to explore theatre 'behind the scenes' By Eva Galipeau An intensive first hand exploration of various aspects of New York theatre is the goal of a theatre workshop and New York tour offered by CSU's oral communication department, March 20-27. Conducted by Dr. Lee Hicks, professor of oral communications, the trip includes round trip air fare, seven nights lodging in New York's Wentworth Hotel, tickets to Broadway productions and a guided tour of the city's main attractions. Total cost for the trip is $625 for double rooms and $785 for single. "I'd like to spend an additional six to eight hours exploring the other side of theatre," says Hicks. "I plan to visit acting studios, costume shops, scene shops and theatrical agents." Twelve openings are still available in the workshop which
may be taken for two hours academic credit or by audit. If students demonstrate sufficient interest, the tour will also include acting classes at the renowned H.B. Studios. Participants will be able to see the Boadway performances of "Cats," "Dream Girls," "Foxfires" and "Angels of God." These shows are included in the original cost, but students will also have the opportunity of see at least four more productions if they choose in addition to the myriad of other events that are available. "Students who participate will gain a basic understanding of theatre and if nothing else, become better audience members," explains Hicks. Persons who are interested may contact Hicks for further information at 341-2980, ext. 511.

'Serve and protect' real duty of security By Christie Lanham Campus Security does more than just write tickets and tow-away cars, they maintain the campus and provide security for the buildings and the people within. "We are commissioned in the City of Edmond. Most people have the mistaken belief that we're only security guards, but we're not," said Harold Brown, campus security officer. The security force had been working on a few cases of automobile burglaries on campus. "We arrested the one's that were doing it and they are now residing in the county jail," grinned Jim J. Dunn, chief of Campus Security. About six years ago, the University of Oklahoma campus police arrested a person driving under the influence on a primary street running through the campus; it caused a major dispute among universities police depart-
ments to determine the jurisdiction of university police within city and university boundries. The case went all the way to the State Supreme Court since the defendant contested that the OU campus security had no jurisdiction. The case set up a dual commission, state and county or local. Almost all universities has primary streets running through them. "We were and are in good shape. We have a special commission which gives us the right to be in that location (on a primary street through and around the campus)," said Dunn. Within a reasonable distance from the campus the officers could effect an arrest and it would be legal. "For the most part we have
been operating under those guide lines (set by the legislation)," commented Dunn. "We've pretty much limited our actions to university property and grounds." There is a new law that goes into effect sometime in July, where the dispatchers also must be certified. There are nine certified security officers on campus and three fulltime dispatchers with one parttime. The officers had to complete 240 hours of training at the Lester Training Center, Department of Public Safety, Oklahoma City. The officers are Chief Jim Dunn, Bob Roberts, Lindall McLemor, James Smith, Doris Smith, Harold Brown, Charles Griffin, Suzanne Adams and J.D. Pickens.
Think Spring
Most of the officers are from the Oklahoma area. Brown has worked in law enforcement with Chandler Police Department and in Colorado. Pickens worked for the Lawton Police Department for seven years and is currently attending CSU as a student. Roberts worked for IBM Cornpany before joining Campus Security. James Smith was a musician before deciding to become a police officer.
Dunn has been at CSU since 1965. Tickets cost $3 now, but after spring break the cost goes up to $5. "There for several weeks we averaged 300 tickets a day and most of those were written between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.," commented officer Brown. The speed limit on campus streets is 25-mph. In the parking lots it is 15-mph, unless posted. On Ayers St. the speed is 20-mph.

Webb sparks Raggedy's in finals
Vista photo by Theresa Gabrish
Sophomore Kevin Ludwick picked up his third win of the season Tuesday against Northeastern.
By Mike Sherman Sports Editor Dannye Webb tossed in 21 points while teammate Bruce Vann chipped in 14 to lead the Raggedy's over the International Boppers 58-44 in the finals of the CSU intramural playoffs Tuesday night in Wantland Hall. The two teams finished the regular season 6-1. The International Boppers fell to Shake & Bake in their only setback, while the Raggedy's only loss came at the hands of the Boppers, 65-52 on Feb. 6. But Tuesday's game was nothing like their previous meeting and the outcome suprised Vann. "I thought it would be a lot closer if we won at all," said Vann. The Raggedy's never trailed in the game, cruising into halftime with a 25-12 lead. The Raggedy's dominated the scoring and the boards at both ends of the court, thanks to the efforts of Steve McKeaver. Meanwhile the Boppers were stone-cold from the outside. In the second half, the Boppers narrowed the margin to 27-15 with 12 minutes remaining. Minutes later, the gap was down to 10 points, but the Boppers could come no closer. The Boppers failed to capitalize on turnovers by the Raggedy's early in the
second half. When they applied a full-court press, Webb and Vann were able to find the open man for uncontested lay-ups. Randy Preston led the Boppers with 18 points, 12 coming in the second half. Dwain Banks added nine. Both teams were comprised mainly of football players and Webb, a senior, said this was a factor in the game. "I was fired up because it was my last intramural game and I was playing against all of my football teammates. I just wanted to go out on a good note," said Webb. Webb started at cornerback on CSU's NAIA championship team. He also played on the intramural championship basketball team last year. In the women's finals, the Lady Hoopers, led by Cynthia Fite's nine points, defeated the Seekers of the Baptist Student Union 30-17. The Lady Hoopers led at the half 12-6, and used a deliberate offense in the second period to maintain control of the ball and the game. In the women's consolation contest, the GDI's defeated Two Scoops 30-22 to capture third place. Su Robinson led all scorers with 14 points. The GDI's were champions last year. The men's consolation game, Phi Beta Sigma forfeited to the Wolfpack.

with the win in relief. Ludwick, 3-0, came in for starter Ron Maxwell in the sixth with the bases loaded and none out. Maxwell surrendered two singles and two walks to begin the inning. He then walked one run in before leaving the game. Three more runs scored before Ludwick retired the side. Maxwell was charged with only two earned runs in six innings while striking out three and walking two. Ludwick, who leads the Broncho staff with 18 strike outs, saw his earned run average drop to 1.86. Second baseman Kevin Dixon
went five for eight for the twinbill, knocking in two runs and scoring two. The senior hit a home run in the first inning of the opening game to put the Bronchos on top 1-0. CSU scored two in the second and were held scoreless until the seventh. CSU led 4-0 going into the sixth inning in the second game. Starter Greg Fos blanked the Redmen for five innings, allowing only one hit during the stretch. But after retiring the first two batters in the sixth, Foster gave up four runs, only three earned,

before being relieved by George Hauser. With the contest tied at four, CSU capitalized on Northeastern mistakes and base hits by Jay Watkins, Randy Mack, Dixon and Turner to explode for seven runs. Hauser gave up a run in the top of the seventh to complete the Northeastern scoring. Linden's single in the first inning scored Dixon for the first run put CSU up 1-0. Watkins hit a two-run homer over the wall in right-field to make it 3-0. Watkins had two hits and four RBIs in the second game. Bailey, not to be upstaged by Watkins, rocketed a solo homer to right in the third. After five games, Dixon leads the team, hitting at a .471 clip.

Lady Bronchos sweep SDS behind Podolec's pitching By Robert Slankard Lisha Brown's grounder to shortstop provided just enough punch to score Crystal Carpenter from third base and give the Lady Bronchos an 11 inning, 2-1 victory over South Dakota State to complete a doubleheader sweep here Tuesday afternoon. CSU won the first game 4-1 in seven innings behind the pitching of Pam Podolec. The AllAmerican also pitched the second game for a total of 18 innings, surrendering only two runs, both unearned. The Lady Bronchos had a couple of chances to win the second game in regulation time. In the bottom of the sixth inning CSU had runners on second and third with two out and couldn't convert and in seventh CSU loaded the bases with just one out. But Tammy Parker's line drive was snared by the shortstop who then pitched to third to catch Brown, who'd taken off with the hit. Vista photo by Theresa Gabrish
